00:00
Bruce, sir, you're, you're pre-med about the NFL schedule that hasn't been released.
00:05
Right. Do I have that accurately?
00:07
Yeah.
00:07
You believe the NFL is screwing America.
00:10
Well, the NFL is screwing me, which is the most important thing. And by product, uh, by, by, um,
00:16
by result, by whatever I'm trying to say, uh, the Washington commanders, uh, because here's the deal.
00:23
Um, they're so infatuated, so in love correctly. So with Jaden Daniels
00:28
and the commander story, right. Going from the outhouse to the penthouse,
00:33
you know, and, and, and turning everything around at a big market and an important market for the
00:37
NFL. They're going to put them in prime time six or seven times this year, including,
00:42
I believe Thanksgiving day at Dallas for the fifth time in like a decade, uh, including Christmas day,
00:49
where they just announced three Christmas day games. It wasn't bad enough to make them play
00:53
Thanksgiving and Christmas. All they care about is ratings. That's all they care about.
01:02
When you have a great product, you want it to be seen. Yes. And we in this town, including
01:08
you, Mr. Russell. Yes. We've always asked about why don't we get respect nationally?
01:14
So respect nationally mean you play prime time game. Correct. Now that they're doing what you
01:20
and all of us asked for, you think that they're wronging the team in you?
01:26
Well, I've always felt that they were wronging us by making us work on Thanksgiving. The whole
01:32
world is wronging you. Yes. Okay. Listen, make no mistake about it. This is as much about me
01:39
as it is about them and what's fair and foul. I don't want to work on Thanksgiving day. I don't
01:44
want to work on Christmas day. I want to hang. I've wondered. Yeah. You don't like you drive
01:49
to Philly. You drive to New York. You don't have to do that. Correct. I'm a professional. I work
01:54
hard. I care about my job. I want to be a part of the mix, but I just don't want to be a part
01:58
of the mix on Christmas day. I want to leave. You're going to watch the game at home on Christmas
02:03
day regardless. I got a question for you. Who in the NFL made the great Chris Russell choose
02:12
broadcast? Nobody. And so when you chose a sport that plays on damn near every day.
02:21
Yes. Well, they used to not play on Christmas day until like three years ago.
02:26
They played on it whenever it was a Sunday though. No, they would always move the schedule up.
02:32
If Christmas day fell on a Sunday, they would move a whole entire schedule because they did this
02:37
in 2017. They played in Chicago on Christmas day, but they still had Christmas day. They had
02:43
a Christmas night game. That's what they had. But the thing I'm trying to say is which one of them
02:48
made you choose this profession? Nobody made me choose. And a lot of people have said, well,
02:52
you signed up for this and you chose this. You did. No, I didn't chose this 28 years ago when
02:57
I decided to give a dumb ass in the broadcasting. I didn't think, ah, you know what, when you're
03:02
turned 50 and you have a family and you have kids and you want to do other things other than
03:06
football, football, football, that I was going to have to work every major holiday.
03:11
Are they playing on the 4th of July now? Nope. Every major holiday. Easter.
03:16
Every major holiday. You know what they did on Easter Sunday, my first year on the beat,
03:21
they traded for Donovan McNabb. That sucked. Dude. So I think a number of things have to
03:26
happen here. I think you need to compartmentalize legitimately. I'm saying this legitimately,
03:34
all the damage the organization did to you for a long time. All those dudes are gone.
