Jonas Knox
Stop messing up the show intro.
Lavar Arrington
We'll be taking you live all the way up until Noon Eastern Time, 9 o' clock Pacific. Are listening on the podcast. We appreciate you doing so and you can check us out on YouTube at 2 pros FSR. That's at 2 pros FSR. We are on weekday mornings before the Dan Patrick show. So we're holding it down here three hours later than usual, but we are,
Jonas Knox
but we're awake and, and sound and, and, and bright eyed and bushy tailed right now doing this show. I mean, yeah, I mean, more awake than what you could even imagine. Yeah, brain is awake too. I mean, body isn't just awake. The brain is awake.
Lavar Arrington
Yeah, we, you know, it's amazing how that works. But you know, that being said here, here we go. And tell me if you've heard this before. Somebody has told Brendan Sorsby no. Oh no, they have told him no. That is, that is not going to be the case. And that somebody is the wonderful people of the CFL who have come out
Jonas Knox
and said we don't want him either.
Lavar Arrington
Upholding the integrity of the league and ensuring fair competition are paramount to the cfl. The allegations involving Brendan Sorsby are serious and concerning. At this time, the CFL will not register a contract for him and no team will be permitted to add him to its negotiation list. In a statement they gave to the USA Today, I don't recall Brendan Soaresby or anybody on Brendan Sorsby's camp saying that the CFL would be their next option. But the CFL has stepped up to let everybody know. Not happening here. So another door closes for Brendan Sorsby and at this point, what do you do? You just follow the Hunter Deckers route and you go play for the Houston Gamblers just because it makes so much sense from a name standpoint, like what do you do? Or do you just wait till 2027 and just try and be a part of that loaded draft class?
Brady Quinn
He's probably gonna have to wait. I mean, that's where everything seems like it's going. Unless you find, you know, you want to go play in some sort of Arena League or something, or, you know, maybe you can try to find a league that will take you overseas, but there's a lot of risk there, injury risk and really what's the point? Is that going to help you improve your draft stock? Probably not. So he's most likely have to sit out this year, wait till next year's draft, which there'll be some concern there about how he would, you know, then get, get back into football, the rust factor, all those things. More so than that though, I think this was just more of a statement by the NFL and, and essentially looking at what's happening in the world of college sports and putting their foot down, because they most likely are going to be handled much different given the protections that they have from the antitrust as compared to the NCAA that's got anything but those protections. And you knew the CFL would probably follow suit. And I don't think the UFO will be a path for him. I could be wrong, but at this point it looks like the 2027 NFL Draft Class is what he's going to be a part of. And so now you've got his film. What he's done thus far compared to versus what's going to happen this upcoming season for a lot of the top guys. And I've talked about this class very glowingly, this will be one of those big classes in regards to the number of first round picks. I think there'll be five, maybe six that are going to be taken in the first round, you know. So how does Brendan Sorsby make a case for himself being a first round pick? I personally thought if he, if he ever had the chance to make a case for himself, this past year's draft class would have been that because he would have been viewed somewhere after Fernando Mendoza. You know, he had more experience than Ty Simpson. He had, you know, again, a nice, you know, layer or amount of throws in comparison to the two. And I think he would have been viewed somewhere in that category. You know, does he go first round or not? I have no idea. But now because of these allegations, I'm sure there's some NFL teams that are very intrigued by him but also want to see what he does between now and then to rehabilitate himself. So that's not an issue. And also how the NFL is going to handle him. You know, you talked about the Hunter Decker situation. There's other players who there was some concern about their immediate entry into the NFL and playing. Granted had other issues off the field, but in this case, this is the integrity of the game. You know, they can't afford to have a guy that's already been caught doing this come to their league and get caught again. And what was it? Fool me once, you know, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Yeah, I mean that would essentially both the NFL would be doing in this case. I think them kind of slow rolling this, not, not having a supplemental draft and having him the opportunity to potentially play this fall probably was the best thing for him as a person moving forward, but also for the league moving forward.
Jonas Knox
I look at it like this. If Sorsby was a guy that was rated right behind Mendoza, then he's a first round great draft pick prospect. Like there's no way of getting around that. So let's Establish the fact that, okay, this is a first round talent. If he's a first round talent, there has to be a real level of interest if he grades out that high, whether it's this past draft or it's next year's draft. So what, what outweighs what out Trump's talent and, well, a gambling scandal that, that's going to outrank and outweigh the talent situation. They're distancing themselves from any type of scandal connected to any type of mishandling any type of, you know, besmirching their name by giving themselves time away from it. Brendan Sorsby is not only getting denied entry into the NFL, he's getting denied entry into the cfl. And to me, it's like, okay, let's give this thing a year. Let's see if, if what he's saying, his rehabilitation, that was what, like a week before he needed to report back? What was it like a week of, of rehabilitation? All right, but let's see if he can show that he has changed. This, this, this amount of time gives you time to get away from the freshness of what this situation has created. And it gives us time to, to see if he's, if he is indeed a degenerate gambler that we cannot take a chance on or if he can straighten up his life within this year. A year now is not that horrible of, of a, a deal. It's not a, it's not a career killer. Per se. Injuries that hold people out for a year's time is pretty common anymore. So it's not that he's not going to be able to bounce back from what took place and athletically as a player, be able to do it. Think it's all the other things that are on the table in terms of can we move forward with this guy as an employee without him, you know, touching on the things that have put him in the position that he's in right now. And they do have to play this one really, really, like, they got to play it well. Don't mess this one up. And I would rather not deal with swords. Be honestly just me. I would rather not take any chances if I feel like it's that radioactive where he could potentially jack us up. That's not something you can control. You can't control that with him. So I, I think it's, it's a risky deal even after this year, him having to sit out of all the major leagues.
Lavar Arrington
All right, so he's not allowed to play college football, he's not allowed to Play in the NFL. He's not allowed to play in the cfl. That means he can gamble, right? I mean, if he's not involved with any of this stuff, I'm just saying he's got a year to kill.
Jonas Knox
If he places one bet on any college football games, any program, what do you do wrong?
Lavar Arrington
He just not affiliated with college football anymore.
Jonas Knox
He will never play again. Why are you trying to seal that man's fate?
Lavar Arrington
I'm just saying the guy's got a passion. And if you've got a passion, go forward with it. At this point, you can't play. You can't play football right now for the time being. So go. Go disappear. Like, go to. Don't they have some sports book in the Bahamas? Like, like, go. I'm telling you, go. Go hang out there for a little while. Get a tan. He's still got some of that nil money left. And go bet on the remainder of the World Cup. Get after it. Go live your life a little bit here. They're shutting you out of everywhere. I do like the CFL also taking the approach of, hey man, we're all about the integrity of the league. Lawrence Phillips played there. Okay? Like, let's, let's calm down on the integrity of the league and, and all the other stuff that comes along with it.
Jonas Knox
Different league, different time.
Lavar Arrington
I think the CFL should have let him play.
Jonas Knox
It's a different time.
Lavar Arrington
It would be the most, just. It would be the most watched CFL games all year. When Brendan Sorsby plays, they missed an opportunity. I believe that.
Brady Quinn
Why would it be the most watched?
Lavar Arrington
Because people want to see the guy plays now. He's got a name. Like, more people know him now.
Brady Quinn
Who wants to see him play? Like, like it hasn't been like a big, like, clamoring for to see him play.
Lavar Arrington
Okay?
Brady Quinn
It's more about what he did, how ridiculous it is.
Lavar Arrington
Okay, but you, you might get a
Brady Quinn
pop to watch it play the first game, but that would be the extent of it.
Lavar Arrington
And it's more than a pop that they would get any other time.
Brady Quinn
Well, that's not true.
Lavar Arrington
Yeah, why not?
Brady Quinn
Look, you keep conflating the two things. No one's questioning, like, what he did off the field in comparison to other players in the past. Like, that's what's gotten mixed up in this entire conversation about the punishment for Brennan Sorsby. Like, we understand that there's been other players in professional leagues that have legitimately had some, have done some heinous things, had criminal, Criminal activity. The, the terrible truth to that, though, is that doesn't impact the integrity of the game in respect to the money, the outcome, etc. When you start bringing on a guy who has bet on his own team and in doing so not even bet like for them to win necessarily, but like bet the underarm passing yards on a guy who's playing ahead of him, that makes you think that it's manipulating the markets. He's letting stuff out there that maybe some people don't know. Maybe it's just a grudge. It doesn't matter either way. It, it just goes to show you it's taking away from the integrity of what that looks like. And if he's willing to do it, then would he be willing to do it when he's playing? So as much as we want to have fun with it, there is a serious conversation to be had about it. And I understand, like, it's, we're not talking about a more serious offense, but it is definitely more serious in the sense of how it impacts the game.
Jonas Knox
Can't get around that. You just can't get around that. And, and for what it's worth, we, we just was talking about Brandon IU devaluing himself and, and taking away any type of leverage he would have and negotiating. And He's a top 10 receiver in the league right now. I, I, I, I, maybe it's debatable, but I would say he lands on the top 10 list of receivers in the league.
Lavar Arrington
Ayuk. Right now.
Pharmaceutical Ad Announcer
Yes.
Lavar Arrington
Coming off the injury and everything today, top 10.
Jonas Knox
So if I'm looking at someone as gifted and as talented and has proven it at the league level, and you're, you're looking at this like, oh man, the value of this guy is, is plummeting through the floor. Then why would we look at Brendan Swordsby, who is jacking up the narrative and the integrity of how things are done potentially with his actions? Why would we, why would we treat you any differently, if not worse? So now the kid has no leverage. He has no, he has no accolades that could help him remove this stain. He's, he's a Scarlet letter player. You won't be able to remove that like that. You're gonna have a G. You know, she had what, What? She had an A on her. His scarlet letter is a G. Gambler, like, you're gonna have it on you the minute they see you. Boom. Gambler just walked into the room. And while you base and, and while you may be able to identify the other, the other GS in the locker room and you see them sitting around, they didn't get caught.
Lavar Arrington
You did. Yeah, I mean, look, you know, the guy had, you know, wanted to scratch the itch, whether it was the Nathan's hot dog eating contest, Turkish basketball, Romanian soccer, the ufc, tennis, like to get after it a little bit. And now apparently he's going to have a whole year off to not be a part of anything. I just wonder, like, what, like, how do you, are you just. What are you doing to get ready for next year? Are you just like, what, throwing. Throwing routes each day? Like, how. Like, what is he, what is he going to do for a year to try and get ready for this? Do you hire coaches to try and get you set up for the draft? Like, what's, and then what happens next year? He gets to the draft, like, how, how far is he going to slip and fall in that year in that draft with a loaded quarterback class?
Brady Quinn
It just feels like if an agent, if an agent signed him, knowing all of this, they're obviously willing to be able to, you know, help him out through this process with his training, with, you know, setting him up to be able to keep preparing him for the draft. So he will have a private quarterback coach that those things happen for all the players. Even, even after the guys who are playing this season are done, if they don't have a quarterback coach, they will have one assigned to them. If they do, maybe that guy flies out to wherever they're training at. There's a bunch of different training facilities that you typically go to just to eliminate distractions. I mean, that's ultimately what it down to. You know, you want to be in a place where you're eating right, you're. You're training, you're turning into a track athlete in some ways, and then working on, you know, your crafter game and then, and then working with a quarterback coach who's able to teach you stuff about the NFL game. So when you go into those meeting rooms and you're tested, you know a little bit about NFL offenses, if you're not running an NFL offense and you can watch tape and dissect and understand what they're trying to get out of you and trying to accomplish and then prepare you for a lot of those interviews. So he should have a leg up on every single other player in next year's draft in regards to the preparation that he'll have for all those meetings, for every test that's going to be thrown his way before the draft.
Jonas Knox
I don't like it. Don't be too good at anything. Just be normal.
Brady Quinn
My question is, does he get invited to the combine?
Jonas Knox
It's a great question.
Lavar Arrington
Let me see if there's any casinos.
Jonas Knox
It's a great question. Don't they have to like formally like reinstate him? Like give him the opportunity to be reinstated, be eligible to be like onboarded as a potential like. Because I was asked the question, can he what's holding the, the league back, what's holding a team back from taking him as an off the street, a street free agent? I said well he has to be there, there has to be official paperwork. That's and I, and I, I, I, I brought your name up. Q. In terms of knowing, you know what that process would be, but if the league doesn't submit the paperwork for approval and you're approved to be an employee of the National Football League, you, they can't, they can't pick you up. Now a free agent, a street free agent that has 10 year time or was drafted or whatever, you, you, you got, you went undrafted for one reason or another. You still have to have papers submitted in order to be eligible to be picked up as a free agent. Correct? You can't just oh, this guy over here, we want him, we're taking him off the street. There still has to be an on starting process in terms of making him a hireable, a hireable employee to, to a franchise.
Brady Quinn
Yeah, the, the, the quick answer is no, he can't. No player can be signed in the, with an NFL team without first being available to be drafted. With the NFL not granting his application, that's what, what you know, takes away from that. So obviously granting his application for the supplemental draft, you know, they didn't say that for the 2027 draft. So he will be eligible for that, but that's the period of time which he has to wait. So that's why he can't play in 2026. He would have to move all the way past that.
Lavar Arrington
By the way, Harrah's, who's your park casino is I'm looking at 48 minutes away from Lucas Oil Stadium. So you know, if he's got time to kill the combine next year, just letting him know right here, little 45 and change mile wise on the i69 south.
Jonas Knox
So the best thing he can do is what Michael Vick did when he got in trouble for what he did. Take this time and, and show that you have the ability to do something other than what you have shown already, which is be selfish. You're showing you you've given A message to everybody. I'm selfish. I put myself first and everything that I do, and that includes my teammates, that includes my. My school, my family, everything. When you're in these moments, take the opportunity to give back to others. So join. Join a. Join a nonprofit group out there that helps people that have gambling addiction. Help. Helps have something that's directly connected to you. Didn't Mike Vick start working with the. The, you know, different organizations that fought against animal cruelty and different things like that?
Lavar Arrington
I'm not sure.
Jonas Knox
I'm pretty certain he did. He did a lot of things that were. Were driven by giving back community service that were directly like, meet the challenge head on. That shows a level of understanding, it shows a level of maturity. It gives you a voice, it gives you a platform to be able to take the ideas and the thoughts and the lessons that you've learned and say, you know what? I did make a horrible mistake and maybe I didn't realize how painful and how hurtful my decisions were for people outside of myself. And now here's where I'm at. I'm trying to make amends for the things that I've done by helping others to be more aware of it so they don't, you know, face the same, you know, end or demise that. That I face and what I got going on. It's the biggest. America loves a redemption story. And if he puts his mind to it, if there's somebody that can help him put together what that strategy looks like and he executes it well, he could have an eye, he could have an opportunity to come through this and be better for it on the other side of it. But just like you had Brandon, I. You putting things out there that are harming him more and more and more and devaluing him more and more and more. He actually could be putting things out there that, that builds his brand, that builds his. His value. And in this situation, Brendan Swordsby could be doing the same exact thing. That's what I, if I were him and I was advising him, that's what I would tell him is get involved with an organization that actually gives back and helps the people that are dealing with what it is that ultimately has costed you right now.
Lavar Arrington
Hopefully you'll end up with better teammates than me, I'll tell you that.
Jonas Knox
Dang.
Lavar Arrington
That's just.
Jonas Knox
What's that mean?
Lavar Arrington
I mean, I'm sitting here doing my research and I pull up Harris, who's your par casino racetrack, and you guys are just going to dismiss that and not even talk about the fact that I did the deep dive to find out how many miles it was from Lucas Oil Stadium, where the combine.
Jonas Knox
I did see that.
Tab Ramos
Yeah.
Brady Quinn
You know why? Because live bet Jesus had a gold golden opportunity.
Lavar Arrington
Come on, man.
Brady Quinn
First segment. And I'm. I'm holding it against you. Okay? You're the one. You're the one with the direct connection. You couldn't get him to show up. And that's. That's unfortunate.
Lavar Arrington
Okay?
Jonas Knox
So something very real about.
Lavar Arrington
So I've got a deal with. With this attitude the entire show because live bet Jesus didn't show up like the Nordics did for 15 minutes of golf early on. $10 for what?
Jonas Knox
It's passive aggressive. You're being passive aggressive.
Lavar Arrington
Can you explain. Can you explain the fine system for the Dan Patrick show audience?
Tab Ramos
Yeah.
Lavar Arrington
When you're.
Jonas Knox
When you're. When you're glazing somebody, when you're overly glazing somebody, or when Patty's overly glazing somebody or me or being scared of me, y' all get fined when you're passive aggressive. That's a fine. You were just passive aggressive just. Now the only problem that we run into is that Brady is the. The self appointed anointed judge of. Of our fine system. And he let you. You up top, boys. He let you off all the time.
Lavar Arrington
Honor. That's what.
Brady Quinn
First off, that. That's a. That's a stone cold lie. Lavar. You only have $50 in fines so far this year, Jonas has $90 or converts to 1586 pesos.
Jonas Knox
Jonas is getting fine and then actually, how many pesos?
Brady Quinn
1586.
Lavar Arrington
Hey, you know how many rosary bees we got to sell for that much money?
Tab Ramos
Yeah.
Brady Quinn
Patty actually is leading the leader in the clubhouse. He's got a hundred bucks worth of fines. And that's. It's been so quiet on today's show. I ain't trying to get another one, man. I hear you. Just don't. Don't do your Drew Ski impression. I think we're all gonna be okay. Hey, did y' all see the new
Jonas Knox
Drew ski deal that he dropped? It's the. It's the.
Lavar Arrington
No, I like stuff that's funny.
Jonas Knox
He's a funny dude, bro. He's way funnier than you.
Lavar Arrington
I thought I was gonna get fine, right?
Jonas Knox
He just dropped. That was passive. That just wasn't aggressive. He just dropped a video on them. Doing a movie with Joe. Like Joe Jackson. Oh, he does. He does the sizzle reel at Joe Jackson. Y' all gotta see it. I just saw it this morning. I was crying, laughing when I was watching this. He really looked like Joe Jackson, man. Like, he's got a way of being able. As much as he looks different than everybody else, how does he find a way to look like the people that he'd be imitating? These skits is crazy.
Lavar Arrington
Yeah.
Jonas Knox
I mean, if you could imitate a little white woman and you're as big as Druski is and you look like Drew, you are one talented mo fo, bro.
Lavar Arrington
Hey, your honor, I just would like to point out for the record, Lavar did reference up top, so he did bring race and his accusations against you not being a fair and balanced judge. Just saying, if you wanted to do
Jonas Knox
that, the up top boys, if you
Lavar Arrington
wanted to do anything.
Brady Quinn
I'm not one who's, you know, past being criticized. You know, Lavar will have his time when he gets fined. Although so far the show we have. We have not taken a trip down memory lane from.
Jonas Knox
I did. I actually did. Y' all missed it when we were talking about, like, people showing up to your door, but I kind of rushed it in. I didn't use no names.
Brady Quinn
That's not fineable.
Jonas Knox
Okay.
Brady Quinn
Because it was in the context and we were talking about and I. And actually I invited it by asking the question. So you didn't bring it up. You actually were. Were quite concise with your story.
Jonas Knox
Nice.
Wells Fargo Ad Announcer
And.
Brady Quinn
And it was on topic. It wasn't like we took a complete right turn and went down memory lane. And somehow there was also the. The com. The memory lane fine. As well as the self suck.
Jonas Knox
So I. I will say in memory lane and self suck, there was a conversation that was being had in memory lane with Jonas Knox. And I'm actually looking for the profile as we speak. Hey, Brady. He's back. He's not. He's not. But it's memory lane.
Brady Quinn
You can only keep a good man down for so long.
Ryan Reynolds
You know,
Jonas Knox
you guys are blurring.
Brady Quinn
He may have been down.
Lavar Arrington
Oh, yeah.
Brady Quinn
But he's not out.
Lavar Arrington
All those gazelles thought it was safe to run around. Not anymore.
Jonas Knox
Yeah, No, I don't think so.
Brady Quinn
The big bad wolf is bad Serengeti, baby.
Lavar Arrington
I don't think you ain't ready for the getty.
Brady Quinn
I'm really going to do this,
Jonas Knox
you know? I'll never talk to you guys ever again.
Lavar Arrington
Damn.
Ryan Reynolds
Yep.
Lavar Arrington
All right, well, I know this.
Jonas Knox
This story is an amazing story, though. I mean, I wish I could tell it.
Lavar Arrington
Toilet paper is a foul brown card issued, dry TP smears and leaves extra men on the field.
Jonas Knox

AI eczema is unpredictable, but you can flare less with epglis, a once monthly treatment for moderate to severe eczema. After an initial four month or longer dosing phase, about four in 10 people taking EB GLISS achieved itch relief and clear or almost clear skin at 16 weeks. And most of those people maintain skin that's still more clear at one year with monthly dosing.

It's the Dan Patrick show here on fox Sports Radio. LaVar Arrington, Brady Quinn, Jonas Knox with you. We are two pros and a cup of Joe. You can Watch us on YouTube by the way at 2pros FSR. That's at 2pros FSR. You can hang out with us here as we fill in for Dan and crew on this Monday morning edition here of the show. We are going to have coming up here at about 12 minutes from now something we do on our show called the FSRI Arts where we come back after a long weekend report any issues Injuries, ailments, stories, tales to tell from the crew here. So that's coming up here again a little over 12 minutes from now. All right, so who's into some more NBA rumors? All right, here we go. We are off and running. This is what the league does, and they do it as well as anybody. Kevin o' Connor of Yahoo is the latest to get involved in the LeBron future and questions surrounding what's gonna happen with King James. According to Kevin o', Connor, the Golden State warriors are attempting to trade for Anthony Davis of the Wizards and then sign LeBron James. According to multiple league sources, a trade for Davis would have to include Jimmy Butler, who is on an expiring $57 million contract while recovering from a torn ACL. The warriors would also have to include some draft capital. They have two future firsts and four first round swaps to work with in any deal. Sources say the warriors hope adding Davis would help lure LeBron from Los Angeles to the Bay Area. Once free agency officially opens Tuesday, the pitch would be simple. Reunite with ad team up with Steph Curry and Draymond Green, play for Steve Kerr, and chase one more championship with a roster of legends. So that is the report from Kevin O', Connor, which basically it sounds like this is what LeBron wanted in Los Angeles, but with a shooter. And so that pretty much solves that problem, if that's what he was looking for. And the potential of LeBron going to play with Steph Curry in Golden State with Anthony Davis coming along for the
Brady Quinn
R. Is anyone excited for this if this happens?
Lavar Arrington
Not really, no.
Jonas Knox
I think somebody somewhere will be excited.
Brady Quinn
You're not wrong. I guess I bring this up because, so I was watching an old highlight. It was one of the only scrimmages that the USA Basketball team actually had that they televised. And it was one where, you know, Kobe was still alive. Kobe was on, I believe it was the blue team, And I think LeBron was on, like, the white team. And one of the things about the game itself was like, those two were kind of pitted against each other. It was. It was rather obvious, you know, they were going to take those opportunities. And that's what everyone wanted to see. They wanted to see Kobe vs. LeBron.
Jonas Knox
And it.
Brady Quinn
When it came down to the end, they actually switched off LeBron guarding Kobe because Kobe could kind of figure them out and. And started hitting a bunch of shots. So Tayshawn Prince ended up covering the end and. And he had a shot of rotation to ultimately, you know, win the scrimmage that was televised but it got me thinking how that was, like, probably, what, 15 years ago, 20 years ago? The NBA is such a different game with the manner in which the stars want to play with one another. Like, I personally, I thought that, like, clip I showed my kids, we were watching together, it was cool. But I also don't want to necessarily watch just an NBA All Star Game with one team that's got superior talent compared to everyone else. And you guys might say, well, hey, these guys are kind of getting long in the tooth, and they're. They're older in age, so it's. It's not quite that. But I still look at it and just say, so what is this now, a big four? They get Anthony Davis, LeBron, Steph Curry, and Draymond. I mean, it doesn't feel overly compelling for a league if you're able to stack a roster with that.
Lavar Arrington
And it also. It also seems like it's LeBron's indictment of the Lakers that, hey, listen, you didn't need to trade away Anthony Davis. You just needed to get me another shooter and we could have done something. And so if he goes to Golden State and then it doesn't work, then it's just. It feels like he's going down the same. Well that's worked for him in the past and just hoping it's going to work now, not maybe recognizing. Yeah, we're like 10, 15 years past that point as far as super teams and everything that comes along with it.
Jonas Knox
Well, I'll take this one from my boy Cuffs, the legend, who is our NBA insider. What up, resident insider for up on game. And he actually has a direct line to LeBron. Don't be surprised if LeBron ends up back in South Beach. And we're talking about what that would look like if you have that. That assortment of talent in. In Golden State, you know, with. With Steph and. And with Draymond and so.
Brady Quinn
So is he just chasing rings at this point, then?
Jonas Knox
Oh, absolutely. Okay. Absolutely. What else are you cha.
Brady Quinn
There's two.
Jonas Knox
I feel like there's two reasons to stay in. To chase rings and to play with your son. That's it.
Brady Quinn
What's interesting then, about both those destinations, though, is those are fun offices to me, that don't bring in LeBron and say, okay, you handle the, you know, construction of our roster. Like, we're going to pass everything by. You. You know, Miami is an organization that you can ask anyone who's played there, anyone's been a part of the, you know, Pat Riley, Eric Spoelstra, you know, they practice hard and they don't care what you think, they don't care what you've done before you've got there, etc. Like, they're gonna make you, you know, do it their way, and they're gonna build the roster how they see fit. So that's not an organization where he's going to be able to have the back channeling to bring in different players and so forth. I mean, it's. Which is some of the frustration, I think, for Lakers fans, is that's what he's been doing. I mean, ultimately he's been. He's been kind of running that organization, and I don't think you can do that at Golden State either. So that's what's interesting is at the end of his career, is he willing to say, I'm good, you guys take the wheel, Let me just play. Let me focus on playing. And I'd love if we can make this a package deal. Maybe Bronnie comes with me, maybe plays against them. I. I don't know, but I'm just saying. I. Those two destinations, specifically, those are ones that I think you can manipulate behind the scenes.
Jonas Knox
I would just say there's a familiarity with Pat Riley and his leadership style, Eric Spoelstra and his leadership style. I think LeBron James would be able to integrate and get into there fairly seamlessly. Now, Golden State, I don't know. I don't know enough about their organization and their front office to know what that dynamic would look like. Clearly, you know, Kerr was on. On the line in terms of having job security. Steph Curry is. Is the greatest player to ever play for Golden State. So there's.
Lavar Arrington
There's.
Jonas Knox
That there is no type of. Of player, and then Draymond is the enforcer. But I think that they would both be very, very on par with. With LeBron being there. I just think that that's. I don't think that LeBron James moves the needle that much for Golden State. I think he would be a more impactful player if he was on a team that had guys that could actually still get it done. No, no, Ca. Like, that's. That's no shot at Golden State. I think. I think Steph Curry can still be a great player and a productive player. I. I feel like what Draymond brings to the table, he brings to the table, but they're still missing that Klay Thompson element. They have not been able to replace it.
Commercial Voiceover / Okta Ad
You.
Jonas Knox
You're not going to replace it with a Kevin Durant type of player when he came there. That's not available. In fact, that type of player just went to the Miami Heat and, and Giannis, I, I think that you have Giannis, you have Bam and then you got Bobby Portis, that, that, that, that swing man, that Dennis Rodman man, that utility, you know, here and now, you know, Draymond Green, so to speak. Miami would be, to me, because of what you just said, that leadership in the front office where LeBron isn't going to dominate or move the goal post for the organization. I think that would be the biggest reason why it would work in Miami.
Lavar Arrington
What happened to Cleveland? Never to that. Whatever the old, we're going to go back home. What happened to we'll give this a third try? What happened to that?
Brady Quinn
Did they say they weren't going to pay him? What do you want to be paid?
Lavar Arrington
It's just like there's, there's all of these different teams that are out there that, and it's just like, you don't know if it's his side throwing stuff in the media and all that. I just, I don't think there's that many teams that look at this and go, oh, we'll sign up for that. Like, I just, I don't think he's got that many options. I really don't. I think maybe the Lakers, but I think they seem like they're kind of over it unless he come, you know, wants to come in for, for super cheap. But there's Golden State. I've heard the Miami stuff. People have tried to throw out San Antonio. Like, if you're San Antonio, I mean, like, why, why go down that road? And yet to Brady's point, on these established organizations, they're not going to, they're not looking to bring somebody in on, on some sort of a half assed deal where he gets to practice when he wants and kind of pull the strings. And he tried that m time when he tried to get Eric Spolster fired early on. Like, I just, I, I don't know, man. I don't think he's got as many options as maybe some people think he
Jonas Knox
does, but I don't think there's many options at all. And with the idea of Jalen Brown being available on that trade block as well, it just, you know, it's more nostalgic. And he's still a good player. Again, he carried this team on his shoulders through one, you know, playoff series this, this playoff run, but I just don't think that him as a multiplier, he's, he's obviously not going to be a player you bring in and he's going to be the final missing piece to your team. It's just I, I just don't believe that that's where LeBron is at this point in his career.

AI eczema is unpredictable, but you can flare less with evglis, a once monthly treatment for moderate to severe eczema. After an initial four month or longer dosing phase. About four in ten people taking mglis achieved itch relief in clear or almost clear skin at 16 weeks. And most of those people maintain skin that's still more clear at one year with monthly dosing.

Hosts: Lavar Arrington, Brady Quinn, Jonas Knox
Network: iHeartPodcasts & Dan Patrick Podcast Network
This episode focuses on the fallout from the Brendan Sorsby gambling scandal, examining both the athlete’s blocked pathways to professional football and what comes next for him. The conversation shifts into notable NBA trade and free agency rumors—especially those regarding LeBron James potentially teaming up with the Golden State Warriors or returning to Miami. The hosts also provide their trademark humor, inside banter, and “FSR IR” injury/life updates.
[03:06–13:43]
[15:24–20:00]
[31:36–42:20]
The hosts explore Kevin O’Connor's report that the Warriors are plotting to trade for Anthony Davis and lure LeBron James to join Curry and Draymond Green—pending a trade with the Wizards involving Jimmy Butler.
Mixed responses:
Hosts reflect on nostalgia for star rivalries (e.g., Kobe vs. LeBron), skeptical of the free-agent “superteam” era. [33:59–35:41]
Jonas, citing “Cuffs the Legend,” perpetuates a rumor about LeBron possibly returning to the Miami Heat.
Consensus: In the late stage of his career, LeBron’s priorities are “chasing rings and playing with his son.” [36:46–37:01]
Brady points out teams like Miami and Golden State are run by strong front offices—meaning LeBron wouldn’t have the same degree of personnel input as with the Lakers.
The hosts are skeptical LeBron is a “missing piece” at this point, arguing his star power isn’t what it was and that superteam assembly is trending out.
[46:06–49:25]
Comedic banter about Sorsby’s gambling:
On punishment vs. talent:
NBA skepticism:
This installment reflects The Dan Patrick Show’s blend of incisive sports analysis and spirited conversation. The Sorsby discussion is a deep dive into the implications of gambling in modern sports—how it impacts careers, league policies, and public perception. The NBA rumor segment captures the endless churn of superstar speculation but with a knowing, weary tone about superteams and ring-chasing. Banter, self-deprecation, and “IR” stories keep the tone light, even as the topics range from redemption to legacy.
Missed the show?
This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in the crossroads of sports scandal and image rehabilitation, as well as fans invested in the NBA’s shifting landscape and the future of LeBron James.
