00:00B. Mitch, who comes on after us with J.P. Finley, was out at Commander's Training Camp
00:07and had an interesting observation. We'll play the audio and then we can give our take
00:13on what he saw.
00:14J.P. and I talk about a lot of different things. I want people to just understand. And there
00:21are times when we start talking about professional football players as if they're kids. And the
00:27fact that I played, I don't have many, I don't feel sorry for nobody. Because you have
00:34that opportunity to go out there and do your thing. Now, if I see somebody doing it and
00:38killing it but they just don't like you, I'll say something about it. But if I know you
00:44have exceptional talent and you're not producing it on a regular basis, whatever happens, happens
00:49at that point. That's the way I feel about it.
00:52And I watch people walk around like they're owed something. No, no, no. In this profession
01:01you take everything that you want. You have to go out there and kick down the door to
01:05get it. And I'm watching dudes pouting and walking around sulking. What the hell is that?
01:14This is not Little League. This is the big leagues. And if you can't understand competition
01:20that's going to be present and forget about it and move on and just go full speed every
01:25day, every play, every opportunity, then that's on you. Because people get cut based off of
01:30body language. Okay? People get cut based off of body language. If I got two guys fighting
01:37for a job, one guy goes full speed every day. One guy's running the extra yard or extra
01:42two yards. The other guy walks around stomping his feet like a little petulant ass child,
01:48like you said yesterday. Okay? And you don't do the things you're supposed to do. I'm probably
01:52going to take the guy with the more energy. It happens.
01:56Who's he referring to? I'm desperate to know. Is like Dotson throwing a fit because they're
02:01bringing in new receivers? What's he talking about?
02:04He missed didn't say, but you naturally think of, first of all, he started off by saying
02:09exceptional talent and don't produce. So it could be Jamin Davis, could be Jahan Dotson,
02:18I saw an interview with, I got to believe it's the guys who were drafted high. And then
02:25let's think of the guys who were drafted. I, that haven't produced, that haven't lived
02:28up to their potential. And he's talking about competition. Yeah. But the army's drafted
02:34in the third round. I don't know that I, to me, it's got to be one of those two, John
02:39Dotson or Jamin Davis. Dotson came to mind. I don't know. And Jamin Davis is competing
02:44for a job right now. I got to know is Brian coming in today. I got to know who he's talking
02:48about.
