All right guys, two words for you. Prostate exam. Yeah, you just clenched up a little bit. Are you imagining the finger right now? Yeah, relax. Prostate cancer screening starts with a simple finger free blood test. Around one in eight men in the United States will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in their lifetime. But that's no reason to re clench when caught early. At localized or even regional stages, prostate cancer can have over a 99% five year relative survival rate. Did your tight end just relax? Good. If you're over 40, 40 or older and have a prostate visit, relax. It's a blood test.com you'll find out if a PSA blood test is right for you. The PSA blood test can be the first step in screening. Talk to your doctor to evaluate your risk, determine when to get tested, and discuss screening options and the next steps. Sponsored by Novartis, you are listening to the Dan Patrick show on Fox Sports Radio. Well, it was eight days after the anniversary of Wilt Chamberlain's 100 points in a game that nobody saw on TV. There were eyewitnesses and radio witnesses. And last night with bam Adebayo scoring 83, I couldn't find the game. And I think late in the game peacocked did bring that game in so you could see the final seconds. But Bam out of bio scores 83. And you, you know, it's. I'm not surprised somebody has scored that many points because we brought it up numerous times. Somebody's going to get there with the volume of threes. Somebody's going to get there and we've had a couple of players getting over 70. If you said, hey, who's the guy who's going to break the record? I would have said no, I would say Kobe's record. Wilts is not going to be broken probably in our lifetime and another lifetime. I would have thought Devin Booker, maybe you would have Luca. I mean you got to have high volume guys. You got to have guys who can shoot threes. But Bam, an underrated superstar, his previous high was 43 and I think he had 41 at halftime. But towards the end they let him shoot. He had a lot of threes. He took 22 threes and he's not a good shooter. But went to the free throw line and ended up with 83. Here's the call when he surpassed Kobe Bryant's 81 points last night.
- [04:16]
B
And quickly in the Bam, he's got space, head down, spins, puts it up and Bam's going to the line again. Bam out of bio is a complete
- [04:30]
A
monster and really get the ball into
- [04:33]
B
Band's hand the right way. Only Wilt Chamberlain has more points in an NBA game in association history than Bam Adebayo who has 82.
- [04:48]
A
That's Jason Jackson with the call. He'll join us next hour about the honor of calling the second highest individual scoring performance in league history. So 83. He went 20 of 43 from the floor. He shot 22 threes, he made seven. But going to the free throw line, that's an all time record. 36 of 43. Wilt had 28 made free throws. I think he was 28 of 32. But you know, you're looking at that many free throws and you throw in 20 some field goals, you're going to put up a big number there. Dwight Howard had the previous free throw Attempts record at 39 and that was back in 2012 and also 2013. But congrats. Pretty incredible night. You're playing against the Wizards, which. That helps. But towards the end, it felt like maybe the strategy was, let's just let him go for the record. And that's exactly what his coach did. The Wizards were trying to foul other people to keep him away from getting the record against them. But Bam. Adebayo. Now, I don't know if. Because we didn't get to see it. Now, we saw highlights, but, you know, Wilts was. Did he really score a hundred? That was in Hershey, Pennsylvania, back in, what, 1962. And no video. There's pictures. But we're like. And I've said this before, numerous times, we really don't welcome Wilt's numbers. Like Babe Ruth. We do. Wilt averaged 50 points in a season. We're like, yeah, but who was he playing against? Well, we can say that about Babe Ruth, too, in some regards, but we don't. We're like, yeah, the Babe. But with Wilt, it's like, these numbers don't really matter. They're like, well, they didn't. You know, those aren't real. He didn't play against real guys. Check his numbers. When he played against Bill Russell. I think he had 55 rebounds in one game against him. Yes, Marv.
- [06:51]
B
But you could say that about Bam. He's playing against the Wizards, right? Doesn't really count.
- [06:58]
A
Yeah. And then you go back to Kobe's 81, and Kobe did that on a game in January, and. But he said, you know, we were down big at halftime, and so we had to stay in the game. You know, that's the thing. Will, I think, won by what, 169 to 137 or something like there. There was a blowout there. And even last night, with Bam out of bio, you know, you're winning by 25 points. But Kobe said, hey, I had to stay in there. In fact, let's go back to. Do we have that? Marvin? Do we have Kobe yet? What? Marvin? We got him. Okay, now, you did both of these, but if I said you could only have one on your resume, you could get the 80, 81, or you could get the 60 in your last game. You have to pick between those two. You only get one.
- [07:53]
B
Oh, man. I probably go with the 81 because we were, like, one game out of making the playoffs that year.
- [08:07]
A
So we needed.
- [08:07]
B
Literally needed every single game to get into the postseason. So if we had dropped that one,
- [08:13]
A
I think we would have been in
- [08:14]
B
serious jeopardy of missing the playoffs that year. So I'll go with the 81.
- [08:18]
A
Reggie Miller and I got into a Heated discussion. Like he kept saying, you're going to end your career with 60. And then he put exclamation points on his text message. And I said, but 81 exclamation points. Come on, 81. And Reg goes no, 60 on your last game.
- [08:38]
B
I'm just, I'm enjoying the fact that you guys are actually having that debate. That's pretty cool.
- [08:45]
A
So that's Kobe after his 81 point performance. Reg and I still argue about that because I'm like, man, I gotta know now that Bam has surpassed Kobe, then I might go, well, all right, I'll take 60 in my final regular season game, final game that I ever played. All right, we'll come up with a poll question. Play of the day, stat of the day. All of that forthcoming, the Max Crosby trade reversed. And I don't think I can overstate how devastating I think this is for the Raiders. They were going to get two first round draft picks, one this year, one next year. Plus their philosophy and free agency probably was, you know, banking on the fact they were getting rid of Max Crosby and his contract going to the Ravens. So they were had a different philosophy here, who they were going after, how much money they were going to spend. But the Raven said, hey, didn't pass our physical and we're sending him back. This has happened before now. It's happened in other sports. Remember Carlos Correa with the the Mets, Mark Williams, the Hornets, he was going to go to the Lakers. But in the Ravens have done this before. Now these weren't big names. Ryan Grant in 2018 failed a physical. 2020, Michael Brockers had an agreement with the Ravens, but they were concerned about his left ankle and that deal fell through as well. I'm just surprised that the Ravens said, oh, you know, upon further examination, you know, maybe there's long term damage in that knee because it was a torn meniscus. And then they said, because it's going to take time for that to heal. That was what was surprising. Now I'm sure the Raiders doctors said, you know, he's good to go and then you trade him. And then the Ravens doctors said, no, we don't like, looks like there's more damage in there. So now the Ravens could be in the market for Trey Hendrickson. Now what do they do? And then the Raiders, are you going to get dollar for dollar for Max Crosby now if he's damaged goods? I mean, this is devastating, I think for the Raiders because Max Crosby is making over $30 million for this year and next year can you trade him, but what are you going to get in return? And I think that's the interesting part of this, that if he's viewed as damaged goods, then you're not going to get two first round draft picks. But Max Crosby headed back to the Raiders. Yes, Paulie.
- [11:17]
B
Right on cue. Dan. From Adam Schefter. Moments ago, the Ravens and Trey Hendrickson reached an agreement on a 4 year, 112 million dollar contract.
- [11:30]
A
Just came through minutes ago. From Adam Schefter.
- [11:33]
B
That's a pivot.
- [11:36]
A
Yeah, I thought this was going to happen. Diana Rossini, who's covering the NFL for the Athletic, she'll join us a little later on. Yeah, that one's, that one's devastating for the Raiders because it felt like, okay, we can move on. Max can go play for a team that can compete for a Super Bowl. We're not ready. We got a couple more years here. We can get our center, we got Mendoza, get a couple more offensive linemen, get, get a couple of wide receivers. We can be respectable this year. But now you have the Mac. Max Crosby. Now I have to, you know, probably walk back my words of the Raiders tanking. If it's true that, you know, this knee injury was far more serious than what we're leading on. But Max Crosby did have surgery. I think he knew he had to have surgery, but it's a torn meniscus. You can play through that. He can, but. But that's where you had this falling out between him and the Raiders front office because he wanted to play those last two games and that it felt like we're going to sit you down because the last thing we want to do is win another game. Now looking at that knee and I don't know how many knee surgeries he's had, but if they're saying that, you know, could be long term damage in there, then it doesn't sound right. But, you know, the Ravens have every right to be able to do it. It's like, yeah, we're bringing him in. And that change, look at free agency. It felt like a lot of dominoes fell after Max Crosby went to the Ravens. Yeah, Paul, I'd really love to know
- [13:10]
B
the timeline of this. Did the Raider, the Ravens, when did they know they were going to move on from Crosby and when did they kick the tires on Hendrickson? Did they think maybe a buyer's remorse situation where, oh, we can get Hendrickson for the same price and not give up draft picks? I'm curious how the timeline played out in the past 24 hours with all that.
- [13:29]
A
Oh, I understand what the Ravens did. Makes more sense knowing the Ravens with their draft picks. They don't give up draft picks. Certainly one in the top 15. And you're going to get Trey Hendrickson. Okay. He's not Max Crosby, and you're going to bring him in. You're going to have to pay him, and it's a longer, you know, contract there, but you get to keep your draft picks. Yes. Man, that is a tough situation for Max Crosby, though, now. I mean, his value has plummeted. Yeah. Because I would lowball the Raiders now. Now I give you a first and maybe I give you a third or something if that. Now, I don't know if the Cowboys see, I don't know how this works with Rashawn Gary, who came over from Green Bay to Dallas. Now it's not official yet. Could they then say, hey, you know what, we're going to rescind that trade? Like, it's not official yet. You're just agreeing to it to a trade. I don't think there's anything in writing, but can you until after like, 4 o' clock today? Could they then go, hey, let's go after Max Crosby? I mean, if I'm Dallas, I would do that if I thought Max Crosby was going to be healthy enough. But the fact that now the Ravens have put that out there that, you know, he could have long term durability concerns. That's the language that I was given. Long term durability concerns. All right, Seaton, poll question today. What are we going to go with first hour? I appreciate their concern on long term. You know, their, their concerns about how he's going to hold up over the long term. Because that's one thing that NFL teams do, is they really hold on to their players for a long time. Yeah. Are they worried about him in his 50s? Yeah, we're just not sure because we're planning on cutting him after the third year, but now it looks more like a year two cut to save money. So that's a little too long term for us. Yeah, we're concerned about how he's going to be walking in his 50s. Long term. You know, durability here. What is long term? Is it three years? Two years? Two and a half? Yeah. All right, so what's first hour poll question? I think you're gonna find that out after the break. Oh, okay. All righty. Paulie famous for the after the break poll question. I got the. The dolphin symbol from him, which is the. Oh, it's like a dolphin jumping out of the water over after the break. After the break. We'll jump the shark after the break. We'll get to your phone calls coming up. And Jason Jackson, he is the voice of the Miami Heat and he'll join us top of next hour. Diana Rossini, more on the Max Crosby situation. Our good buddy Ross Tucker has some thoughts on the Max Crosby situation as well. And Team usa, Team USA is going to be an anxious spectator watching Italy and Mexico coming up tonight and their hopes of moving on in the wbc. We'll hinge on that. We'll talk about that coming up.

Nobody really prepares you for this part of life. When I had some guests stay with me recently, I realized I was missing a few key essentials. I hate when that happens. Really? No more paper towels. Down to the last pigs in a blanket. So soon. I didn't want to interrupt our time together by running to the store or give off the impression that I was unprepared for my guests. Moments like that are a perfect example of how everyday life can surprise you. Some days go as planned and other days, well, life throws curve balls. It's not always convenient. That's why I went straight to Amazon. Amazon helps make it easier to manage both the routine and the unexpected. From household basics to last minute replacements you like to have on hand. To be a great host, Amazon makes it so you can find everything that you need all in one place with reliable value and great prices. So when you run out of essentials right when the party's about to start, Amazon makes it easier to focus on your guests. Talk about saving the day.

Just because the big game is over doesn't mean you can't have people over. And if you're having people over, it'll be Miller time. Still iconic 50 years later. The original light beer, by the way. 1975. And it's brewed for taste. Simply put, it just is different. Miller Time. It's the right time anytime. Simple ingredients, malted barley for rich balanced toffee note flavors and the iconic golden color. There's something about that after every show we had in San Francisco. I'd say the show is not over until you'd hear that. And it was time for Miller Time. Miller Lite. The perfect beer to kick off a small hang.

By the way, before I get to Jack's, there was some logic that crept in last night with the Washington Wizards broadcast. Their announcer Chris Miller suggested that the Miami Heat were prepared to take Bam Adebayo out. And out of respect for Kobe Bryant, that didn't happen, of course. And we welcome in Jason Jackson. What should we remember about this performance
- [21:43]
B
that I had to make the call on free throws? I think that's the only thing that you should have to worry about. Daniel Lovely flannel this morning, by the way. There in Maine, 80 degrees here in South Florida with my Bam T shirt on. I think the thing that we have to do, and I'm not sure if you're willing to do this at this stage in life. Dad, we have to step back sometimes. Remember, we cover sports. It's just sports. It's fun. It was funky, it was weird, it was cool. And then we move on like no.1. We won another game. So the Miami Heat have won six in a row, moved out of the play in spot. That's all that really matters. The main thing is, the main thing, it's winning. But for Bam, I think it's going to be one of the most memorable things in his life because he grew up in a single wide trailer with a single mother in North Carolina dreaming about Kobe Bryant and had a really cool moment as a guy who has done everything right, who doesn't really focus on scoring, who made his craft in this league as a defender and rebounder, who took the mantle from Alonzo Morning, Dwyane Wade and Udonis Haslam as a culture carrier for this organization and has been to the finals twice and hasn't been able to stay at the mountaintop just yet in those areas and then also takes on the responsibility of being the lead force in the community for organization. That part of it all feels good. This is a, this is one of the first let's put air quote great Heat players who I have been able so I'll make it about me now there who I've been able to see from draft night to all the way through. When I arrived here in 2004, Dwyane Wade was already a player. LeBron James came to Miami, already was a player. And so this is, it's just fun for the fan base. Anything outside of that it just kind of filters into this hater mode. We didn't have social media in 2006 when Kobe went for 81, so I'm not sure the response probably would have had its level of in it as well. There's literally no video. We have a sheet of paper with 100 on it for Will. I'm sure old Knicks fans are still trying to wonder what happened to them that night. Let me just say my good friend Chris Miller. Go to my good friend Chris Miller for a moment. I will. Filibuster, sir. I will say this. What were you pressing full court and triple teaming the man for in the second half of the fourth quarter? It created. It created what probably you're not loving as the basketball purist that I know, the proud son of Mason, Ohio is presenting right now.
- [24:29]
A
Well, no, I keep telling Everybody it's still 83. Okay. It's still, at the end of the day, 10 years, 20 years and still 83. I did think about this. How do you think Kobe, if he were still with us, would have viewed that performance last night? The way there was intentionally fouling, keeping him in the game. The game's out of reach. How do you think Kobe would have viewed that performance?
- [24:56]
B
Kobe had a level of rancor that would have possibly finger wagged it, but I think Kobe would have liked Bam and Bam's game overall from a night in, night out basis. So there might have been a little love there. You know, the gold medal club from Team usa. You never know how those things go. As I've gotten older, Dan, I will. I will turn 53 years as winter turns to spring. I've decided that I am in search of joy all of the time. All of the time. So when you're calling a game like this, obviously you can't anticipate on a Tuesday night against the Wizards that something unique and special is going to occur. So I say thank you. Idris. Bam out of bio. And by the way, Bam hates when you use his given name, but I don't get to say it up, so I thought I'd throw it out for you.
- [25:47]
A
Okay. Did you talk to Spoelster about his philosophy down the stretch when he realized that he had a chance to surpass Kobe?
- [25:56]
B
I am on the set live at about 200 yards away when that happens, Dan. But it was asked of him and it was aired on Heat Live last night. And I think he gave the most beautiful answer in the sense that for that guy, for what he's meant for nearly a decade, to the head coach and to the franchise. For those that don't watch Miami Heat basketball every single night, you're not going to connect with this fiber. Right. This is about a guy that took the torch from a guy who played for 20 years in Udonis Haslam and the best player in history in Dwayne Wade and put the entire organization and what it means and the Heat culture that makes everybody roll their eyes and all of that on his shoulders. He went to Kentucky just like the president of the organization, Pat Riley, like all of it and does a beautiful job with it his own way. You know, he's not necessarily a big in your face rah Rah Barker, but the way that he goes about his craft as a world class defender, a outstanding if not elite rebounder and a guy who's developed. You've watched it over nine seasons, developed his game into the modern big man. Got to go out and knock it down from 23ft. Dynamic man. When he came out of Kentucky, there was no way I would have thought Bear would be a three point shooter, but has become super serviceable and does whatever is asked of him. I think this is the thing that's most warming about it. He thinks about scoring, least from the dribble handoff to the actual assist. He's setting up other guys offensively to score. And so it just, I, I'm leaving it as what I assume is a one off like I was.
- [27:33]
A
But you. Okay.
- [27:34]
B
But your quarter was fantastic. That was real basketball. That was just him lighting guys up and, and then when he got to halftime and they already had his career high plus it was, it was wild to where it could go.
- [27:47]
A
Okay. Being the basketball purist that you are, take yourself out of, take your Miami Heat headphones off and look at that in the last five minutes of the game.
- [28:01]
B
Right.
- [28:02]
A
Would you have a problem? Because you're the anomaly. Like you're all in. You saw history, you saw something great. The reaction I've gotten this morning is people are really upset, but I think part of that has to do with Kobe. But let's just look at the actual basketball style that was played in the last five minutes or so.
- [28:22]
B
Yeah, I probably, I, if I was calling it on the other side, I would have been snarky ish with a hint of. But it's still competition. You got to try to stop him, you know, so that's where I always get. Because I do get like if it's a Celtics Heat game and you know, Brown or Tatum's going nuts and they're still in and the game's gone, and there's three minutes to go. I note that there are sometimes special moments, and if you're gunning for something, I'm fine with that. I tend to be. But I. I will. A little.
- [28:57]
A
Some.
- [28:57]
B
Some serious village of Evendale snark will be coming out fully from my throat. No doubt.
- [29:05]
A
He's Jason Jackson, the voice of the Miami Heat. Greatest NBA performance you've ever witnessed, whether regular season, postseason.
- [29:15]
B
Did I have to be in person? Did I have to be in person for it? Is that the key?
- [29:19]
A
No, no.
- [29:20]
B
I will tell you. You know what? There's two of them. I'll tell you. When San Antonio closed out in 99, that. That was in. It was. It was not a. It was a moment more than a performance. I'll give you the performance in a moment because Avery knocked down that last jumper baseline, if I'm remembering that correctly. The only reason I wouldn't remember is because you and Stuart Scott would push me out of the way, and I couldn't do any SportsCenter hits. So thank goodness for ESPN News. Yeah, thank you. Thank you, News for giving me some time to talk about these things I'm allegedly covering you and Cindy Brunson. Didn't see the reference coming. Dan, thank you for that focus. They're locking in. Lock it in. I'm a proud. But the best performance I've ever seen was game six, LeBron James in Boston. You win that game or it's not. By the way, you gotta win the game. Right, because it doesn't allow for the. The lore of him becoming a champion to even present itself in the appropriate way. But on the road, 40 plus nine rebounds, handful of assists, that scowl looking underneath the brow that forever hangs on the walls in Miami, that thing was that. That was just. It was literally like watching a lion walk the Serengeti and eat everything along the way. But that was pretty astonishing, by the way. That has to. Watching someone score that much and. And the willingness of the Wizards to put that man on the line as much as they did. Again, it was. It was astonishing in a different way. And so I don't want to take anything from. From Bam, because BAM has given us
- [31:05]
A
so much, is the broadcast going to the Basketball hall of Fame, the dunk to pass LeBron's record, the Bam.
- [31:19]
B
The Bam slam, which was, oh, first of all, always tasty. All right, you want some pumpernickel with that one? All right. And you might want to toast it. You might want it. Listen, and that was the thing after that, Dan, I will. I will admit this only to you in your illustrious here on Peacock. And the great thing about being here with you is there's literally a peacock outside my window screaming all morning long. And then I'm on Peacock with you. It's the best on Brand. But I started thinking about this, and you've known me since I was a. A young, young adult. I lean towards fun and funny. It's what I. It just. It provides me with my sustenance. But after he passed LeBron, I was like, okay, now you're calling stuff that might play forever. Let's just kind of. Let's get it right down the middle.
- [32:12]
A
And.
- [32:12]
B
And it was tough because I. I've listened back, and the moment for 83 happened at the free throw line anyway, so it wasn't going to provide for this full, beautiful baritone that I've. That I've. That I've cherished and presented through bourbon and cigars all these years. It didn't. It didn't have that full moment there.
- [32:31]
A
Yeah, you got the BAM slab.
- [32:34]
B
Which episode.
- [32:36]
A
Oh, yeah, of course. But you. You got cheated. You needed a jumper, you needed a slam. You needed something not free throws. You know, when you're calling something, let's
- [32:46]
B
make it about bam. Let's not.
- [32:48]
A
Okay. Yeah, it's all right.
- [32:51]
B
By the way, you know what you need on the wall back there, buddy? I want you to hop on MiamiHeatStore.com right now. For $83, you can get yourself a authentic BAM jersey.
- [33:03]
A
Now, if we could Seaton, would you go back there by the bar area? Yeah, go ahead.
- [33:10]
B
Get that. Oh, you already have a bam. Do you already have it?
- [33:13]
A
Yes.
- [33:14]
B
Oh, you have everything. What was I thinking?
- [33:16]
A
Yeah. Autographed. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Come on. Yeah.
- [33:22]
B
You know what I got for you right there? Hot Bam.
- [33:26]
A
It was a Bam sandwich. Yeah. Yeah. I think it says from one score to another.
- [33:35]
B
I thought it says, if you reach, I teach. I thought that's what that said right there. See glorious Vanna White work out of you, by the way.
- [33:45]
A
Thank you, Satan. By the way, that whole story about me playing against Stuart Scott, that was supposed to be in the documentary. It didn't make it in the documentary.
- [33:55]
B
Who had the audacity to cut.
- [33:59]
A
What. They wanted me to tell the story, and I said, no, let somebody else. And they said, oh, we're gonna get Jason Jackson to tell the story. And then it doesn't even make it.
- [34:09]
B
No, I don't think I was in it at all, by the way.
- [34:15]
A
Booyah. Yeah. I know.
- [34:17]
B
Here to cheer you.
- [34:18]
A
I'm here to boo you. All right. Yeah. Good luck with the next game. An encore.
- [34:26]
B
Listen, how about this? In honor of BAM's number 13, 13 tickets to Bucks heat tomorrow night in paradise, where it will be 80 plus degrees and not a low of 36 like you'll enjoy there in May.
- [34:41]

Why. Why do you do this?
- [34:43]
B
No, no, no, no. I just.

B
Water.
- [34:53]
A
Bourbon. You get the bourbon.
- [34:55]
B
The only time Dan comes to Miami is if Lebitard calls. I. I can't. I can't get that man down here at all.
- [35:02]
A
That is true. Yeah. That is true.
- [35:03]
B
Yeah, but you. But darkness remains your weakness. I'll tell you that.
- [35:06]
A
Oh, yeah. Hello, darkness, my old friend.
- [35:12]
B
It's Jason, damn it.
- [35:14]
A
Yeah, it's Jacks. If you're nasty. If you're nasty, next time he scores 83, I'm gonna have you back on the show. Okay? Yeah.
- [35:22]
B
It's been three years, Dan, so. Oh, man.
- [35:25]
A
I wasn't.
- [35:25]
B
I wasn't counting, but I could go back on my phone. Fritz, he hit me in during the finals in 23 to have me on.

Nobody really prepares you for this part of life. When I had some guests stay with me recently, I realized I was missing a few key essentials. I hate when that happens. Really. No more paper towels. Down to the last pigs in a blanket so soon. I didn't want to interrupt our time together by running to the store or give off the impression that I was unprepared for my guests. Moments like that are a perfect example of how everyday life can surprise you. Some days go as planned and other days, well, life throws curve balls. It's not always convenient. That's why I went straight to Amazon. Amazon helps make it easier to manage both the routine and the unexpected. From household basics to last minute replacements you like to have on hand to be a great host. Amazon makes it so you can find everything that you need all in one place with reliable value and great prices. So when you run out of essentials right when the party's about to start, Amazon makes it easier to focus on your guests.

Pacific Diana Rossini's been very busy this morning. Senior NFL Insider for the Athletic and co hosted the Athletic Scoop City Podcast with Chase Daniel. What can you tell us today that we didn't know yesterday about this Max Crosby situation?
- [39:31]
C
Well, we're still learning lots of facts as this has been really the biggest story in sports, because you just don't see this a lot. And from what I gathered over the last 12 hours, we'll call it 14 hours now, max Crosby was. Was in Baltimore for a physical. Right. The Baltimore Ravens had done their research. They've done their work on his medicals. All teams do that. In fact, other teams that were trying to trade for Max had conversations with his surgeons, they had conversations with the Raiders doctors to basically try to get an idea of where Max's knee was at. So Baltimore knew the exact timeline of where Max was at in terms of the return and the rehab process. And six months appears to be kind of like the timeline of when he could be a full go. And so when he went in for his physical, from what I've learned, things just seemed really off in the building all day, that something wasn't right. And he had his physical, and the Ravens doctors looked at the mri, and then they had four or five independent doctors take a look at it as well. And together they made the decision that this trade was not worth it, based on what they discovered in his knee. And I think the way they view it is, in the short term, Max would be fine for 27. He would have been okay. The long term was their hang up, and that was the problem. And that's when they made the decision and they sat Max Crosby down in their offices and said, look, thank you for flying out here. Thank you for saying your farewell. Goodbye. Not sure if we're going to, you know, we're doing the right thing here, but we believe we are, and this trade is off the table. So now Max is back in the facility today. He's. He's under contract with the Raiders. He's doing what he does all the time, which is work out and try to get that knee ready to go. And I. I think there's a good chance that Max Crosby is a raider for 20, 27.
- [41:32]
A
I just wonder if there was buyer remorse with this. Diana, where the Ravens don't give up draft picks, they don't draft in the top 15. Now all of a sudden, you're giving up two. Maybe you realize, you know, we could get Trey Hendrickson and not give up all of this. Yeah. I don't mean to be cynical about the medical stuff.
- [41:52]
C
You're not being cynical. This thing stinks. What are you talking about? You're spot on. There's 100% shadiness going down right now. And the reason why I say that so firmly is because I've had so many conversations with people around football who understand where Max is at with his knee. Nothing was surprising. And this trade wasn't really about what Max was going to be able to do for the Baltimore Ravens in 2030. 2029. Right. This is about 2027. So let's just say they look at this MRI and the knee is a disaster compared to the way you projected it to be. Because teams do do that too. I had a general manager this morning explain to me, just going through their process of what they do and, and team this, they go, okay, this is what the knee looks like. This is what we're giving it in terms of, of length when it will become a problem, when this will bubble up. And, and, and the Baltimore Ravens had that information and for them, they didn't feel that this knee would hold up for the long term. So I just think with the Trey Hendrickson situation out there and him holding off waiting for the numbers that he was looking for, I think the Baltimore Ravens, who are already did a move that, that they don't normally do, you've got to have a certain type of philosophy and stomach to give away two first round picks for a soon to be 29 year old pass rusher. And I think after the last few days they sat there and go, you know what? We lost eight players to the New York Giants. We lost Tyler Linderbaum, like we need more. And they made the decision to go aggressive and they, they were able to secure Trey Hendrickson last night.
- [43:33]
A
Feels like a convenient failed physical to me. Is that a nice way of putting it?
- [43:39]
C
Yeah, I think it's. I, I think there was definitely things that they saw on the MRI that they weren't thrilled about, but I think most around the league are looking at what the Ravens just did. They're certainly frowning upon it. There's, everyone's got strong opinions about it. I don't really think it's going to change anything. It doesn't mean that no one's going to do business with the Baltimore Ravens if next year Lamar Jackson says he wants out. You know, I don't think that's going to change. People are still going to deal with them. But look, this stuff happens, you know, and they have every right because this was all a hypothetical trade essentially. Right. Because it really doesn't become official until 4 o' clock today anyways. So, okay, they have the right to do it and they did it.
- [44:20]
A
Could the Cowboys rescind the offer to Rashawn Gary and engage. Re engage with the Raiders for Max Crosby if they do it before 4:00 clock today.
- [44:31]
C
Yeah, they absolutely can because nothing's, nothing is official yet. But most organizations don't want to do business that way. Most don't want to have the, the kickback that we're seeing right now around Baltimore. And look, they can't come out and say anything. I think they, a lot of people are wondering why aren't they putting out a statement? Why aren't they talking to one of us to say here's what happened. According to them, they came can speak on medical right now. Max Crosby was never their player. He was never a Baltimore Raven. He was just there to go through the process of the physical before they signed the paperwork and made this thing official. So now Vegas is sitting there and of course they're hoping teams call but from what I understand, they're not moving off the two first round asking price that they have like they're, they're sticking with that. And, and I, I see the way this is going to play out. At least this is how I think it will go. I think Max will be, you know, play out the 27 year, he's only 29. And I bet you we're doing this story next year, we're just going to run this whole thing back.
- [45:34]
A
Max's reaction to this being told face to face that go back to the Raiders when he thought he was done with the Raiders.
- [45:44]
C
Well, just think about what that's like for him and his family. You say your goodbye, you do the messaging. You're. You've already moved on mentally from playing with the Raiders, which I don't believe was easy for him either. I know it didn't work out well at the end of the season. He obviously had issues with the way they managed him in regard to his injury. He wanted to continue playing. He didn't want to be shut down. They of course didn't want him to be out on the field because of the knee. But also they wanted to secure this number one overall pick which they got. So now look, we've all been, we've all watched Max Crosby. He shares so much of his life on social media. We see him in a lot of interviews. I don't think this is somebody who is going to just be so frustrated and angry by the situation and, and declare that he's not going to play for the Raiders. This is someone that's just going to probably be. I had one person in football reach out over text of like, I am frightened for whoever's got a lineup against Max Crosby this season. Like the chip he's going to have on his shoulder to shove it back to the Baltimore Ravens. But also, I think there's probably just embarrassment here a bit, you know, of. I can't believe I just went through all this. I just got on a jet, flew to Baltimore. My family spent the day with the team, and it just doesn't, it doesn't work out. So I.
- [47:05]
A
When did they engage with Trey Hendrickson, do you think? Like this. Pretty quick turnaround.
- [47:10]
C
Yesterday they had conversations with Trey Hendrickson over the phone. They spoke with him because you know how now the teams can have these conversations with free agents.
- [47:19]
A
They spoke before or after Max Crosby decision?
- [47:23]
C
I don't know when they, I know they inform Max later in the afternoon because I was talking to some people in the building when I started to get texts that something was going on. Which, by the way, like, you want to trust your instincts in these situations. That was not what I thought that was like when I heard something was going on. You know, I'm thinking Lamar's deal, like, I was barking up the wrong tree. Full disclosure there. But, but soon as the readers put out the statement, I knew me, I'm like, physical. Oh, my God, you know, you know, and fortunately, we were able to report that. But you don't tell the Las Vegas Raiders the trade is off for Max Crosby unless you got a backup plan. Yeah, I'll put it that way. You're not doing that. It's a hard decision. You're taking heat. You're, you're possibly affecting the relationship with John Spytek there, you know, in readers, in terms of doing deals with them. Again, there's a lot that comes with that decision. But I think in the end, Eric DaCosta looked at the situation was like, I'm not willing to do this. I'm, I, I, I, there's, I can't, I can't go along with this. And in the end, they made the call.
- [48:34]
A
Talking to Diana Rossini, senior NFL insider for the Athletic, co host of the Athletic Scoop City podcast with Chase Daniel. Yeah, I, I feel bad for the Raiders because they had a whole different mindset of we're moving on from Max and we're going to move on from this contract. And they spent money and they started to build their team as if they needed a couple of years before they're going to be, you know, respectable, competitive. And now all of a sudden you got a guy who's Great. But, you know, if you trade him, you're probably not going to get what you thought you were going to get. I just, I'm actually rooting for the Raiders to maybe get this right one day, and I thought that they were in, headed in that direction and then all of a sudden, I mean, if the consolation prize is you get Max Crosby back, but you need him now, maybe in two years you need a Max Crosby kind of player, but you don't need Max now at that price with this team.
- [49:36]
C
And I know you're looking at the moves and you're coming up with that philosophy of this is what their plan is, that they're just rebuilding. But that's the truth. That's the, that's how they're been. That's how they've been speaking to free agents and to agents about where they're at. This isn't a team that's going all in for right now to try to win a Super bowl like we've seen around the league. This is a team that knows they're trying to rebuild. They're trying to rebuild it the right way and they've got the money and they've got the picks to do it. So look, is it awkward? Probably. I mean, I give credit to Max Crosby for driving into the facility today, right. Like to just go back to work and I guess I'm a reader. I mean, I think he had a going away party based on his social media.
- [50:19]
A
You know, he's there right now in the building.
- [50:21]
C
He's in the building, working out like going through rehab as a reader, you know, and, and by the way, in credit to him too, just, you know, six year anniversary of his sobriety is today. You know, I, by the way, this is just me, like comanist. I got way too much time in my head on his social media. But, but, but, you know, first of all, just shout out to him, six years clean and obviously has had a tremendous career, but now just head down, back to work. He is the, the sort of model leader you want on your team. So I do think there will be organizations that are having conversations right now going, all right, we need a pass rusher who's out there. There's not that many great ones left. You've got Granard in Minnesota that teams are poking around on. You've got the Philadelphia Eagles, who said a lot more goodbyes than hellos lately. You know that how he's got something up his sleeve. They're engaging in some of those talks, but maybe there will be some shift to Max Crosby.
- [51:17]
B
But.
- [51:18]
C
But, you know, I. I think this is going to be more of a scenario where we see him in a Raiders uniform.
- [51:23]
A
Great stuff. Are the kids in school this.
- [51:27]
C
Look, Mikey's biting Joey in the middle of all this. I. And I don't mean like a little, like, you know, one of, you know, like a little fake bite. It was deep. Teeth in the arm, screaming. I'm like, guys, not now. My husband's like, what do you want me to do? I'm like, something, something. This is the biggest story. I was doing all my tweeting last night on my back porch. Just like a weird. I was just thinking to myself, I sometimes I wish I could just video this for my kids to see one day of like, look what you did to me. Look how you aged me.
- [52:01]
A
You know, Shefty doesn't have to deal with this. Glazer doesn't have to deal with this.
- [52:06]
C
I think they all have their own things at home. Everyone's got family. Everyone's got things. No one's got Mikey and Joey, though,
- [52:12]
A
I can tell you. No, I don't. No, they don't. I know you're busy. Thanks for taking time.
- [52:18]
C
Appreciate you having me.

This is Julian Edelman from Games With Names. I want to take a second to talk about something that's personal to me. I've had the privilege of working closely with Robert Kraft for a long time. And one thing I've always respected is how seriously he takes up standing up to hate. As a Jewish athlete, my identity is something I am proud of. But I also know what it feels like to be singled out for it. That's why this new commercial for the Blue Square Alliance Against Hate that aired during the big game really hit home. It's about showing up for someone when they're targeted, even if you don't have the perfect words. And sometimes standing next to someone is enough.
