00:00 Well, add Jericho to the growing list of people that aren't interested in Fox Sports personality
00:04 Skip Bayless's opinion, John.
00:05 I don't know what you think about that, but Jericho came out and said that very much in
00:11 his media session this week.
00:12 What do you make of those comments from the Lions starting signal caller?
00:16 Yeah, Vito, it's really interesting.
00:17 I'm not terribly surprised.
00:19 I don't think that Jericho wakes up every morning and is paying attention to what the
00:23 likes of Stephen A. Smith or Skip Bayless are saying.
00:26 But Skip Bayless did take to Twitter, and he's been known to be controversial, be a
00:30 contrarian immediately following the game in which the Lions, it was known that they're
00:35 going to take on the 49ers on the road.
00:37 He posted on his social media account, well, congrats to the Lions.
00:40 They've now earned the right to get their tail kicked in by the 49ers, which obviously
00:44 he knew was going to send the Detroit fan base into a tailspin.
00:48 And so Jared Goff was asked about it, and he quickly moved on saying, I'm not interested
00:53 in his weekly radio interview, saying I don't care about the opinion of Skip Bayless and
00:57 really indicating that he does not pay attention to those that are spending their mornings
01:03 talking and giving their bold takes and their bold opinions about sports.
01:08 And so Jared Goff, levelheaded, an individual that is leading the Detroit Lions, obviously
01:13 pays attention.
01:14 He hears what's been said about him as he's brought up some jabs that have been thrown
01:19 his way in his media sessions.
01:21 He does understand a little bit about what's being said.
01:24 And boy, when you're Jared Goff, you've silenced all the critics.
01:27 You don't have to really prove yourself that much more.
01:29 You've played at a high level.
01:31 You've taken a Lions franchise that's been dormant, and you've now brought them to the
01:35 precipice of the Super Bowl.
01:37 So this Detroit Lions football team obviously pays attention a little bit and uses the noise
01:42 properly to motivate themselves.
01:45 Players that have made mistakes in the past are now making plays in the future.
01:49 They rebound quickly.
01:50 And so for Jared Goff, his time and attention should be focused on getting this football
01:56 team to two more wins, which would really thrill the fan base.
02:01 It really would, John.
02:02 Thanks for all the time.
