00:00we're gonna get to kirby joseph but apparently rico is now telling me kirby is uh interacting
00:06with jim costa on social media that's not what anyone's looking for i don't think but
00:12whatever i have an idea i have an opinion i'm not gonna go panic mode i'll tell you when panic
00:19would set in i was already concerned let me just be clear i'm not comfortable with where it is
00:24but i'm not gonna go full freak out i have an idea i can sell you this pen okay
00:29kirby joseph starts training camp on the pup list as a slow ramp up to a return where the plan
00:37was
00:37always and this is all hypothetical i'm spitballing here okay and we're here to six six ten my point is
00:45with what's been going on since we saw him crawl out you know crawl into the tent in kansas city
00:50then you got the reports about he tried to practice he limped off the field after every rep
00:55the idea i conjured in my mind i hearken back to calvin johnson towards the end where he didn't
01:03practice and he just played right that was kind of the thing the only hope i can sell you is
01:09this is
01:10a part of a plan where the organization doesn't want to answer a question every day he'll be ready when
01:16he's ready and they are going to have him on a very strict practice regimen i.e minimal and they
01:23don't want to overextend him before it's go time now i'm not telling you this is good no i still
01:30don't
01:30believe kirby joseph will be playing 60 70 reps a game i gotta see it to believe it but i
01:35also don't
01:36need him going full iuke on social media only thing missing right now is an ice cream cone what is
01:42this guy
01:42doing i i don't understand either and you know it's you know one of the people on here on this
01:48thread i'll give this this chet uh steadman guy full credit for this but he said the words that i'm
01:53thinking bottom line is everybody in detroit wants kirby joseph to be back and and be out on the field
02:01and do well but this whole attacking people because you're injured we didn't injure you okay we're just
02:09kind of stating the obvious we're not speculating like with the source is the detroit lions who put
02:15you on the pup list we're not speculating we're not making this up that's where you are get better
02:21see you out on the field when you're better but i don't understand how everybody's the villain
02:27for stating the obvious uh also i i just trying to bet fans that you wouldn't be on the pup
02:36list
02:37one problem you are then it was like right my knee not too good uh you need to pray for
02:46me only god
02:47knows i need to can i get a rosetta stone for some of this i can't tell y'all everything
02:52lol update fr
02:55my faith is unbreakable i can walk now not in hella pain no more those are two words might want
03:01to use a
03:02space there i'm not dropping to the floor like the kansas city game if y'all want to know if
03:06i can
03:07play this season ask god okay log out please for your own good we all want you back you're an
03:14all
03:15pro caliber safety i don't want to see your career cut short but people are going to speculate about
03:21your injuries kirby because you haven't played in eons and the team your head coach kirby not jim
03:28costa costa doesn't coach the team your head coach did not give us a good update and it didn't
03:36inspire a lot of confidence you'll be around then you're out here telling fans bet me i bet you i'm
03:41not on the pup list you are you are i'm trying to hold out hope that maybe this is a
03:46part of a grander
03:47plan of of management but yeah i i my concern was already at an eight and a half it's gonna
03:55stay at an
03:56eight and a half yeah i mean rico i think the plan might just be a super light camp limited
04:04reps
04:04and they try to roll them out on that field and see if he can even play like play a
04:09game see i think
04:10that i'm looking more towards maybe not even the first couple of weeks where we're gonna bring you
04:15in in the middle of the season and hope that the rest and the time that you had off will
04:20be enough
04:21that you can come back out there and contribute play after play like the goal is not to come out
04:26run out on the field make a couple of tackles and then have to leave again but my problem is
04:32look he's had 10 months and he's on the pup list how could they go through an off season and
04:39not do
04:40more at safety how well well you really want to know the answer well rico i'm here till six go
04:47ahead
04:48and no because i think they trusted and believed that things would work out just like they believed
04:54that terry and arnold was didn't really wasn't involved in that stuff so we don't need to go
04:59after a corner we don't need to go after safety help because we trust our guys and our guys are
05:05saying they're progressing so let's just believe in them rather than just stepping up and saying
05:11you know what let's have a backup plan just in case things fall apart well here we are
05:19look i'm not going to freak out about it i've been concerned i have a right to maintain my concern
05:25i'm not freaking i just would like to see kirby probably log out you don't need to do that to
05:30yourself and everyone's on your side no one doesn't want you back i i don't know man you're
05:37pointing at the wrong people whatever um but just because you start camp on the pup list doesn't
05:43mean you're not going to be ready by the start of the season so i'm going to wait a little
05:47bit he's
05:48got two weeks at two weeks from now if he doesn't come off that pup list and isn't a factor
05:53at practice
05:53that would be the point i would freak out all right just for the people in the back
05:57but i'd love to know your concern level with it i don't know man i also am a little bit
06:02concerned
06:02about some of his messaging like what are what are we doing here i can walk now what
06:10what all right we'll go to brian 97 one brian how you doing buddy well it's a monday i'll tell
06:17you
06:17that uh yeah i don't know what it is with the athletes in this town where they get diarrhea of
06:23the mouth and make things worse for themselves i wish they would you know smarten up and realize
06:29that they're screwing themselves over uh for the tigers you know you were saying that they dug
06:36themselves a hole and you're right they did and sky harris was looking down at the hole saying it
06:42puts the lotion on its skin right you need to get rid of scuble and focus on next year because
06:49this
06:49year's dead you you barely you didn't even beat the royals uh you didn't sleep the series and
06:56they're a god-awful team i'm from missouri like they suck and you didn't beat them that's
07:01matt verling with the bunt dude oh i i would die with a dfa to the second pitch if i
07:08look up best
07:10pitches to bunt in the dictionary there's a picture of the second pitch get this guy but again this brian
07:17is the problem they think they're the smartest organization in the league that they actually
07:22were doing victory laps and there were team legends calling this radio station about matt
07:28matt verling is a fourth or fifth outfielder on a real team it's who he's always been he had a
07:34little fun run just like mckinstry just like bias and then lastly uh i'm loving this u of m thing
07:41where they're just worshiping ward manual on his way out i i want to say they're going to be polishing
07:47something but i can't say that on the air but i mean it wouldn't shock me if that was part
07:52of his
07:52settlement or his exit package thy will polish i mean it's honestly he can ask whatever he wants
08:00he shepherded him through all the cheating he knows where all the bodies are buried
08:04yeah i'm gonna keep listening to you guys appreciate you thanks but i mean that's that's where i'm at
08:09with it as as far as the kirby thing do you think i'm am i too cavalier about i'm just
08:14not ready to
08:15freak out you know what i think you you're showing a little bit more patience than i am i i
08:20do think that
08:21man it's something going on here because it's been quiet you haven't heard anything and you really
08:28don't know the extent of what happened to him two weeks i freak out no the extent of what happened
08:35to
08:35him i think we can all draw some pretty strong conclusions and i want to be responsible guy
08:42guy crawls into tent guy comes out of tent like sammy davis jr never to play again yeah i mean
08:52draw
08:53whatever conclusions you want i should have to spell it out and the brian branch being on the pup list
09:00that's not a big deal to me no that's a later injury timeline a more defined injury and i never
09:06had i would
09:07be shocked pleasantly if he plays week one i've always thought october 1st for him see i always
09:14had uh november somewhere around i i'll even say depending on where the team is at come back around
09:21thanksgiving you know what you can do the trip to germany or you can wait until they get back i
09:26forgot
09:26about that game nonsense
