00:00But I want to ask you about Sed Tua Tagovailoa and his multiple concussions now and head
00:10injuries.
00:11Now, I have heard all day today, nonstop, I've been up since very early in the morning
00:16hearing how everyone and their brother thinks he should retire and that his career is over.
00:22And I said earlier on the show that he, you know, had a huge signing bonus, 30 some million,
00:27100 million guaranteed the first two years of the deal.
00:30He's set for life, no matter what.
00:31He's got all the money in the world for him, his family, his grandchildren, his neighbors,
00:35the whole neighborhood.
00:36Do you think that his career is over?
00:39Because I think, you know, 20 years down the road, this guy's going to have advanced dementia,
00:43CT, whatever you want to call it, Alzheimer's.
00:45He's going to have memory loss.
00:47He's going to have brain damage.
00:48I think he already has brain damage.
00:51Nobody likes to voluntarily walk away from pro sports.
00:55It's such a great life, but he's already gotten paid, as you said, listen, I don't
01:00think he's going to retire, Scott.
01:02I think he's going to be back again, but without being stated, I think he's one hit away from
01:09retirement now.
01:10And the problem with two is he doesn't get hit that hard, Scott, and it's a member against
01:16the Buffalo Bills.
01:17Milano pushed them over just routine, pushed the quarterback.
01:21He did like the cartwheel backflip hits his head.
01:25He doesn't know why to get hit.
01:26I'm not blaming the victim here, but you know what, whosoever fault it is, it doesn't matter.
01:33And I don't want to be cold, but from a football standpoint, can he stay on the field?
01:37No.
01:38Right.
01:39So at some point you're going to have to ask yourself, are quarterbacks one hit away from
01:42like potentially dying on the field and you know, all right, you got Skyler Thompson.
01:48He's okay.
01:49But the future of the Miami Dolphins in the future or two, you have to seriously consider.
01:53Listen, Scott, you're there right now for the fight game and boxing.
01:58You can get knocked out once.
02:00You can get knocked out twice.
02:01All right.
02:02You got knocked out a couple of times in your career, Scott, if you get knocked out like
02:06four or five times in a two year span, you're going to have brain damage.
02:10Like at some point your brain just could not absorb like a sponge, like growing back up.
02:16It won't, it'll shrivel.
02:18It won't grow back up.
02:19It'll shrivel if you keep on getting hit.
02:21So I think his family, I'm sure his family, Manta Teo is good friends with him.
02:26And he came out this morning and said he needs to retire.
02:29He was already told him to retire before, but he needs to just shut this down.
02:32It's getting dangerous now.
02:33People that understand concussions understand how dangerous this is.
02:36You can see the glossy eyes.
02:38He was convulsing and his arm went up.
02:43That Nowitzki guy, the former wrestler, Scott, he's a big concussion expert.
02:46He's all into this.
02:47He talked about his arm going up in a position that it did.
02:50Like he was out cold again, bro.
02:52There's only so many times you can do this to him before you're not, you're going to
02:55be talking slow man soon.
02:56You're going to be talking slow.
