00:00Big adjustment with Skylar Thompson, and I think you laid out a perfect case yesterday.
00:07Why are you betting anything Dolphins related until further notice?
00:11Why are you betting Tyreek Hill to win the offensive player of the year?
00:15Why are you betting the Dolphins to win the division?
00:17Why are you betting anything long-term Dolphins related?
00:21Could they go into Seattle and win?
00:23Of course.
00:24Could Tyreek Hill have a big game?
00:26Maybe.
00:27But I watched a lot of Skylar Thompson the last couple of years, and it doesn't get me
00:34excited to bet them.
00:36And here's the crazy part that people don't want to say out loud.
00:39Let's say Tua comes back in a month, which he could.
00:42Sounds like he could.
00:43Six weeks.
00:44Whatever.
00:45You think teams are going to take it easy on Tua?
00:47You think big defensive ends are going to, oh, let me not hit him too hard.
00:53This is a football game.
00:55And if you are out there, you are putting yourself at risk to anything that happens
00:59on the field.
01:01And we have seen this movie before with Tua.
01:03He comes back early, they rattle his cage, he goes back out.
01:08So look, I wish him the best.
01:10I hope he stays healthy.
01:11I wish his family all the success in the world.
01:14But to think that he can just come back in a month and other teams with 285, 305-pound
01:21edge guys, they're going to take it easy on little Tua?
01:25No shot.
01:26If anything, he's got the bullseye right on his helmet.
01:29He's got the green dot on the back of the helmet, and he's got a bullseye right on his
01:33eyes.
01:34So if he wants that, if he's willing to take that on, good for him.
01:39He's got more balls than I do, because my little fancy ass would be, I'd be in bed sleeping.
01:44I would not be on the football field after I got my eyes rolled back my head a month
01:49prior.
01:50These guys are different.
01:53Some of them have issues long after their career because of their dumb decisions on
01:57the field.
01:59I just, I don't want to watch that first game he comes back and see him laying on the ground
02:04again when he can't feel his hands.
02:05I do not want to see that.
02:07So let's just pray that that does not happen.
02:10But to think that it's not possible is just silly.
