00:00And let me get to the, obviously, the trade that shocked everybody.

00:02You were in on it.

00:03You know, Micah Parsons going, obviously, from Dallas to Green Bay very late.

00:07And then we find out he may need an epidural to play.

00:11So, the back thing was real.

00:12It wasn't like a manufactured thing.

00:14And they give him a boatload of dough, obviously, to play.

00:17And then we find out, allegedly, that the Eagles made a pretty good offer,

00:20and Dallas was not trading him in the division.

00:23What do you know about the whole situation?

00:24Philly was interested.

00:25That was never going to happen.

00:26The team that actually really tried was Carolina.

00:29Really?

00:29And I thought, yeah, and I thought if Carolina, obviously, they traded Burns to New York.

00:33They haven't really been able to replace a pass rusher.

00:35They did not want to trade Derek Brown.

00:38But, to me, not only was trading Micah a mistake, but trading him now is a mistake.

00:42Because forget trading him in March or April before the draft, Greg.

00:46If you had done it maybe a month into the season, let's say Carolina's 2-2, 3-1.

00:50Bryce Young's playing well.

00:51Maybe they give you more.

00:53A team like that that's overachieved.

00:54Sure.

00:55There was no reason, also, to trade Micah.

00:56You had him under contract for a whole other year.

00:58So, to me, the trade was just crazy.

01:01It also seems like Micah was playing his hand there, too.

01:04Where he was like, I'm not sure if I'm going to be ready for week one.

01:07Right.

01:07And if you know anything about Micah Parsons, the dude wants to play.

01:09Like, he plays.

01:10Yeah.

01:11He's not a guy that comes up with invented, oh, my hamstring hurts.

01:15You know, we call it the plaxico bars here.

01:17The plaques.

01:18So, I can't practice, can't play.

01:19And then you're like, wait a minute.

01:20That dude's on the field on Sunday.

01:22Another thing, too, was I don't believe, and this was the same executive.

01:26I put this out in March.

01:26I said there could be a trade.

01:28It'll be unlikely.

01:28But it's actually possible.

01:30The same one told me Gary never wanted to pay Micah.

01:33He just, he wanted to make it look like he did.

01:36It was a charade.

01:37The Netflix special.

01:38Let me pull a fast one on everyone.

01:39And obviously, he did.
