00:01Stop doom scrolling. We did it for you. Here's what you need to know with Amy and Sean on 1027 VGS.
00:07Indeed, here's what you need to know today. And this one breaks my heart because I'm a Patriots fan.
00:13First and foremost, that is where I'm from. You know, it's kind of what I and a lot of history with me and Tom Brady.
00:19He doesn't know me, but I know him and I love him. He's my man. He could have been a Raider.
00:25Isn't that crazy? Rob Gronkowski could have been a Raider.
00:28This dropped on Saturday night during the UFC fight.
00:33Gronkowski was actually doing like a secondary broadcast for the UFC fight.
00:36Right, right. And Dana White is on this, doing this interview. Here's what he said.
00:40I worked to put that deal together for Brady and Gronk to come to the Raiders.
00:47And it was almost a done deal. And at the last minute, Gruden blew the deal up and said that he didn't want him.
00:55And Brady was already looking at houses and it wasn't being said yet that Gronk was coming.
01:01So Las Vegas would have had Brady and Gronk the year that the Bucs won the Super Bowl, except Gruden blew the deal up.
01:08Gruden stinks.
01:10Isn't that crazy?
01:11I hate Gruden. Never liked him.
01:13So insane. And Dana White, I mean, I feel like he is so underrated.
01:20He's a great businessman.
01:22Genius businessman.
01:23Yeah.
01:24And he's friends with them. So, oh man, that could have been pretty crazy.
01:28Should have been the coach.
01:29Yeah, just for those of you who would like to know what happened that season.
01:32Yeah, Brady and Gronkowski won a Super Bowl ring and the Raiders went 8-8.
01:37So, that's cool.
01:39Yeah.
01:41Speaking in sports news that doesn't stink, Las Vegas Raider lights, rather, over the weekend.
01:46They hosted a whole bunch of new U.S. citizens. This is a really sweet event that happened over the weekend.
01:52700 people or so from over 80 countries coming to Cashman Center and right there at halftime, boom, judge made them all U.S. citizens.
02:00So cool.
02:00Which is a really, really cool event.
02:02Yeah.
02:02Very magical. Confetti rained down.
02:04That's so awesome.
02:05Yeah.
02:06That's beautiful.
02:06It was a great way to become an American.
02:09Yeah, for sure.
02:09Finally, this is not a great way to end a concert.
02:12The weekend over at Legion Stadium, a great show. I heard it was great.
02:15But massive fire outside.
02:18What the heck?
02:19Yeah, there was a, I've heard a few different things. A food truck, a merch truck. Some truck caught fire.
02:24Right.
02:24Right outside of the...
02:25Nobody's hurt, but it was, it looked, it looked really bad.
02:28It was. I mean, it was billowing a bunch of black smoke.
02:31Yeah.
02:31CCFD, they came there, put it out, but yeah, a lot of different video.
