All right. Anyway, so people are now attacking Justin Herbert for being rude to Laura Rutledge, uh, after the game. And, you know, the notion is, hey, you make 200 and some odd million dollars, you know, the least you could do is understand the reporter's job and give her 30 seconds of your time, and that's fine if that's your take. I agree that, you know, guys should make themselves accessible. They know the deal, especially as a quarterback of a winning team that their sideline reporter is going to come find you. You know, that kind of comes with the territory. But here's what's interesting to me. Everybody in the media now, and I think it's more out of a protective nature for a female reporter in this case. I think that's part of where this is coming from, which I totally get and I'm totally good with. But how come everyone in the media now that's attacking Justin Herbert for being somewhat rude, I guess, or blowing off Laura when she first went to grab him for the postgame interview. Where was everybody when Travis Kelsey blew off the postgame? Game press conference and the reporters in the locker room. Where was everybody for that one? He wasn't rude, but he just no showed you. Yeah, he was unprofessional. Yeah, so like Travis Kelsey knows after a game that along with Patrick Mahomes and probably Chris Jones, he is gonna have a microphone in front of his face, win or lose. That's the deal, right? And Travis Kelsey decided because he played like crap and he had the ball go through his hands that resulted in an interception that ended the Chiefs' season and their. Dynasty that he didn't want to talk to the media. He did the same thing after he lost to the Eagles where he dropped the pass that led to an interception in the Eagles game. He no-showed then as well. Can't talk to the media when things go bad. I can only use the media for my benefit. And when things go well, I'll talk to everybody, and I'll be the first to get up for the day or so the microphones in my face. But when I'm the culprit, when I'm responsible for the season coming to an end, I'm nowhere to be found. And 3 days later, he'll sit down with his brother and he'll talk about how hard a loss it was, and they'll you'll be, oh. 00 yeah, oh, it'll be that kind of, oh, you're fantastic, you're terrific. Oh, I feel so, uh, stop. It's embarrassing, right? You can't talk to the media only when times are good. You have to suck it up and be a pro. I'm just wondering for everybody. It's being critical right now of Justin Herbert, and all Justin said was, I wanna go celebrate with my teammates. And then he did stop and he conducted the interview the way he always has, right? But that's a problem for everybody. But Travis Kelsey blowing off the media is not a problem for anybody. Yeah, it's weird to me. They're both wrong, I think. Oh, well, see, I liked it until then. Um, I'm tired of that part. Um, I thought him kind of trying to run off was kind of lame, but I also think Kelsey is super lame, as do I. He's not only lame. We also learned a valuable lesson here on this particular program that Travis Kelsey is also sensitive. Some might even say soft because yesterday on this show, I talked about him blowing off the media after the game in which he's responsible in part for the Kansas City Chiefs season coming to an end, and I referred to him. In a not so nice manner. Fair enough. And as we do every day, we put clips of this show out on all social media platforms. You should be watching them whether you like them or not. You've the, look, you could say I hate Craig. You could say I love Tyrone. You could say the opposite, whatever it might be, and we put ourselves out there every day. And we have over 100 million views in the short 3 months that we've done this show and one of the fastest growing sports content, uh, uh, shows, uh, in the world right now, and we're very proud of that. But yesterday something happened I've never witnessed before. At least I've never experienced it, and I've done this for 34 years. All right. The way we talked, or I talked, I'll take ownership of it, about Travis Kelsey, apparently Travis Kelsey was sensitive to and the Travis Kelsey stands were very sensitive to. I referred to him using the B word and I also referred to him as the H word, which is what they've told me I could say now and it won't get taken down. And after literally like a half a million views and tens of thousands of likes on the video we put out, we got community noted on it and we had our video. Taken down you can see right there. So either Travis Kelsey harassment and bullying, we have now been accused of harassing Travis Kelsey and bullying Travis Kelsey. Travis Kelsey, 6'6, 250. I'm 6'6, 250. No, like I'm 6' 200. OK, bullying. Who could I ever bully Travis Kelsey in the real world? Hell no. And I own that. I own that, right? Physically, he could only bully me. I now I may know Jing Fatah, the Australian martial arts, and you shouldn't f with me, but if you looked at the two of us, he's imposing physically over me. But there you have it right there. Travis Kelsey or his people or his lunatic rabid fans who are really just in love with, uh, with his, uh, fiance. When that was on TikTok, right guys? That was TikTok, yeah, went to TikTok and reported us for bullying and harassing Travis Kelsey all because we commented on the fact that he no showed, which is, according to all of you guys, a player's responsibility if it's Justin Herbert's responsibility to give Laura Rutledge a couple. Minutes after a game because he makes so much money, well then it's certainly Travis Kelsey's responsibility to do the same, of course it is. But because I referred to him as a bad word, the B word and the H word, all of a sudden that's harassing and bullying, and no joke showed again, guys. It got taken down. It got. It got taken down. After a half million views, thousands and thousands of likes, someone decided that was harassment and bullying. How soft can you people be? How sensitive can you Travis Kelsey stands be? Wow. Craig told the truth. Wow. Travis Kelsey, uh, didn't show up to, to, to speak to the media because he has no class. Wow. How dare you point that out? Wow. I can't believe our season ended before Christmas. Wow, I've never experienced in my lifetime. It's ridiculous, and I've said far worse things in my career, far worse things than that.
