" Our 3-D NC a Thursday means one thing and one -- only a visit with our good -- from the NFL network internship -- good morning -- how are you. Doing a -- I can't imagine any subjects we got -- talk about with you today I'm just -- things we can talk about I've no -- little will be."

" Well actually want to leave it -- so there's always -- shortage of stinks to talk about it until bluntly is it honestly. Is he greatest reality show going there are all sorts of reality shows or TV nothing's better and the job -- you come up with. Something like aborted start of it pop out -- be shooting themselves in the late one night can be. -- you know hospital worker who spent it well linebackers now have faced perhaps perhaps obstruction of justice charges. It's crazy stuff because Donnelly."

" Marat today the is that Antonio Pierce is going to testify or is at least going to speak. The police and tell his side of the story which isn't good I wouldn't think -- Boris."

" Well book came out -- his car and they're looking to see if there's any tree sit gunpowder or blood now. In me speaking it aren't familiar. Legal world which I am sure I have very little apprehension of I editor Jerry kill me less I'd -- Vick finally got parable that what does meet its first debate the issue Antonio Pierce didn't see it. About what that -- go to anybody then depletion and it looked -- appropriate but he disposed of the gun. If he did. He's gorgeous based obstruction of justice charge and it he is convicted. Of a structure of justice -- to -- guilty to obstruction. -- justice or this works. Key obviously wouldn't have to try to get out -- to which you probably will be able to do well. You are guilty of the structure of justice itself make. The law and order commissioner will spend --"

" Which takes me brilliantly to exactly the observations have been make him in the last 24 hours -- that is Roger Goodell is perceived to be and maybe even by himself as the law and order commissioner. At what point -- stand up and just open the windows screen they're not paying attention to me. I mean pac man Larry Johnson Chris Henry tank Johnson and now Plaxico there's a lot of crap going on for a four this being the law and order commissioner Adam."

" Like about -- what about what happened. On New Year's Eve. Two years ago when Deron Williams -- ever get shot and killed what do I would have been one ear go Sean Taylor. What about that. Okay now we're talking about a culture today. You would eight we don't know very much about -- okay I. Date they scare me to get deep perfectly honest or how you could take carried a -- Fortune or security. Sports -- will match now I guess there are people who say that extra burst. Still need to be tourniquet jewelry he was wearing or Easter no traps all or. Travel less conspicuous. Don't -- each jewelry higher security guard. There's sort of measures to -- take I just. Again I'm sure that he would at least Casey state -- that I just don't get it will -- get it."

" My point is as it is that it implies the National Football League yeah. And this -- the commissioner who is the sort of made his bones on on the beat top -- and put up with a need to stop and they aren't listening to him at what point does he sort of practicing at what point does he take the role that Mayor Bloomberg Tuesday -- I'm going to -- happens anymore -- going to prosecute to the fullest extent of the -- I had to make these people in the National Football League understand that I mean business here."

" He's -- How much harder couldn't couldn't dump players they. I just over the -- tour -- three years total he's been in office he -- exactly Jack and."

" Maybe they are realistic we don't you see that they're not maybe it."

" you Larry Johnson still play Tank Johnson still play and complex. Go probably isn't going to play."

" Johnson was suspended Pacman Jones was suspended Larry Johnson was suspended. Okay all these people ask Larry Johnson is still -- is more time. He's got court dates later this mark that he felt guilty of crimes he's accused of you know being suspended. For a longer period of -- I think he's British politician could -- so people just stupid that message."

" Yeah you know that's nothing they can do deter Plaxico Burress from being in an idiot let's face what do you think is the timetable on Antonio Pierce. -- do you think he could get suspended this year this this regular season."

" I don't see that happening. This season Jerry -- again. Where an area where I'm certain social legal world I had a difficult just got to get the football world. Okay but I would -- at -- immediate matched pretty soon. I don't know how a procedure there I really -- okay exploit. My guess is some Al obstruction of justice George it is it is didn't -- text written name. Once dead centered it to guess it is every eight to then adapt what the commissioner could make heroic but I used to -- accepting. That quickly I don't."

" Only a -- would -- only symbolically if he's trying to and as we've seen them do before trying to -- one he's the sheriff he's the bossier. He could say you know whatever conduct unbecoming. And suspend -- for a game in December and a matter. The Giants put."

" Cabinet -- possible."

" Doesn't have nearly the effect the impacted you say. We'll wait and see all the facts are and and Plaxico goes to court march. So a we talked and you know next year from."

" What Campbell's credit at least -- it it seems to -- to be on to any there whatever player finds trouble during the season. Some our receivers to beat their case except for February march April. It is -- happen like all they get into trouble it'd September and all the so -- in court in November to keep Iguchi hit it doesn't happen that way. My guess is -- don't regret it appears if trouble does indeed signed him."

" I think. Now maybe I'm dreaming of I think Plaxico Burress will really have an impact his case. On players and young players such as football players and basketball because. It is so and tangible guns you bring the gun. To a place you might go to prison you might lose your job you contract your your livelihood it's you know Michael. It's almost like -- it's just like oh you do cocaine you could die now you carry a gun you could. Go to prison."

" Well not. Did Gerald Williams situation that it -- carried it did that affect people from."

" Carrying drugs are being out late or."

" That's different Deron Williams got shot. He this in in the minds of someone like Plaxico Burress probably think I should. Brought his -- he could have fought it out with them having they'd most people don't know mandatory minimum to get three and a half used to be every -- in New York State. I think they know now."

" You know what. It's just out of interest -- at. Ray -- fortunate that the scene of a crime and yeah that he didn't quit he got two games -- obstruction of justice charge. And -- bars. Ordered by that -- want to go to jail for a longer period of time that Ray Lewis for being here and it. -- you consider this that the yet they actually shooting yourself in the leg at your city. Potentially result in nineteen almost behind bars. Actually gambling and fighting -- Virginia."

" Two good point but I still think that and -- locker -- you know a lot of players. You think it is going to be an effective wake up call."

" Now I don't I really don't I take that every player. Basically -- don't decisions and they hear about -- Maybe for a little bit it'll get -- to reconsider some their decisions but these guys you do what you had picked up again it. I I go back to dealt wasting so he got shot by chuck Taylor he got shot by Richard collier could be the year slide. All of these types who've been around. Guards -- top guards in so spiteful way even though maybe they did initiated. You think that was in -- sort of message. I don't hold it gives its I don't know if it is don't look at -- guy that's been spent bit. For the season for repeatedly to meetings -- basically just stop has it been divided but. Or -- it mattered Artest could shake up but -- acts selfish act stupid."

" A -- if indeed he does go to jail Plaxico for three and a half years he's 31 now in three and a half years do the math will be 34 going on 35. His age at that point in the top six toxicity. Of of his prison sentence and what it is he's done. -- prevent him from getting an offer a tryout with some National Football League team or several."

" Well we're we're. Gordon got a lot of -- problems -- just your basic -- he's convicted beat you because Otis you know for three after years as opposed to -- shorter -- but if it goes to bat away. To meet. I guess should be to eat -- Because I think it will be hard to be imprisoned for three years to get at 3536. -- resuming. So career I don't think -- applicable to get -- be my guest now. -- Able to avoid conviction here and he's absolved of wherever Chargers -- will be against him. And the Giants decided severed ties with that -- off season which by the way I'm not convinced that they will deal but at -- that. They were perhaps believe the other teams' interest that he's too good day you go back to last year I guess our first and the Super Bowl but key. Made some opening place. C championship game you're stupid don't -- decade without -- and I watched some. They're games during the regular season he made so many peak pictures that they probably don't like playoffs without him."

" It was -- a hundred or whatever was fine 300000 for tardiness. And Ed Coughlin still tolerated it mean it's hard to believe Tom Coughlin that Tom Coughlin would put up with such a slacker off the field but clearly his tail on the field made him worthwhile."

" He was a said that he had his three year last year is ready -- what he was -- testing. He's a source used to be every bit as ready most --"

" At least the surely that would OJ gets out in twelve years he'll be 73 nobody gets him right about that fair to say Adam."

" I -- sign -- an -- okay you get tickets at -- I want -- due date is done. We hear about it -- babysit it was."

" Or say yeah we're our our -- our legal expert tells us he's expecting about twelve years."

" Well. I don't think that's quite a lot of political and steadily but yeah I think a lot of people will probably be content with that."

" Could be life for for 61 Euro which would be okay okay yeah I do I know you're no legal expert but the Williams boys in Minnesota. Have a case."

" How are really an area where I hadn't really uninformed they get beyond just."

" Taken like you always do."

" Well you could -- out. Might get should be -- to people acted like six. Don't be surprised if they were actually speak to people who are close to them in of people Minnesota they believe that taste. And you know what Minnesota besides that I can't -- They're schedule is set up that it's a real issue if they don't have these guys down the stretch because the last two regular season games or is it wet and the New York Giants. And those two teams without the Williams guys up front the Williams wall -- just run the ball into the key for the Vikings defense over and over again. --"

" suffer the ultimate humiliation to be the only team to lose to Detroit."

" Decked out but no -- was -- these fourteen other stretched there's pressure brought that -- crystallizes pressure -- also eight. Very winnable game against it but. -- Detroit gave credible I don't dip it into practice dictate that we do -- though -- practicing. In the NFL PA is while it's don't case with the Minnesota just its salads like illegal acts now. How law -- to sift through this I don't know I don't know sport. I think to myself -- vicious. Decent."

" Will they do delay it long enough don't they run the risk of the Vikings make the playoffs maybe this thing comes to fruition they don't win it and they get suspended for the playoffs as opposed to a game against Detroit."

" No I don't think could be suspensions would carry over -- although that at finished being questioned -- a little receives -- like that for. -- Somebody to the playoffs. Let's at least keep score."

" Probably suspended for the playoffs. I don't. Seen everything NC NFL."

" They cut to the histrionics struck out."

" You understand their defense this dark cap stuff with a view meant every you know Newman -- or whatever it is that."

" Yeah -- basically just pitch is that the NFL knew that it lose. Something that. -- educated doorstep product or it did not that are on the bad list it'll -- that is probably visit there. And they should've gotten in their opinion sufficient warning not to be -- in certain supplemented they were using. -- which also actually it masking agent steroids. So. They feel like dedication and I say this that they're people who. Our tickets these people who employ these people who were were outraged at decision on Tuesday that totally."

" army other sporting news has a list of the -- People who may be jumping into the breach win a lot of both 6891011. Coaches get fired. Bill cower Marty Schottenheimer Mike Malarkey Jim fossil Mike Tice in the school boy's Pete Carroll by the hard to believe. Jim Harbaugh Tim Brewster Jeff -- is this -- from Boston college and Nick Saban from alum."

" Them but a lot of -- Have a minority candidate knows it is certainly."

" and they left doubt in my mind to. Most desirable. Coordinators negate. This despite oh. Okay yeah. And they left out the next Mike Tomlin did receive Morris -- they was probably still a year or two away from. Being neglected to a couple of outlets and they had recycle some names that list right. They had not included other teams that list. Eric chase it it's -- go to our. I don't Ricky springing up I know it's been argue with the media today you're telling leadership -- nine million dollars in total control the people Browns. -- First -- all. Is built terror washed -- big picture he'd get nine million in total control somewhere else. Or direct whatever he wants come back he should get a lot of money to get the power control watched. Why did he start in my conversation with him. Semi recently others conversations with more recently nobody has gotten indication that he wants to come back and coach Richard nobody. Did you need to come up."

" Recently in the use that meant picture but they'd do. -- Oh and lots of -- wrap this up let's what's best out of the launch questions -- yeah yesterday. Launching a defensive back launching himself at a wide receiver running back legal or illegal Adam."

" Largely is considered. Attempt at a position that eight players can't write the -- very early get any particular legal technicality today are. I think you're going to be talked about the Wes Welker -- and to -- what I watched it. And my immediate reaction force that is eight eagle -- it is -- brutal game but she's eight legal. Because -- read -- shoulder right."

" All right -- dancing around the correct answer launching in and of itself is okay but not if you lead with a head and make helmet to helmet contact so be locked himself to be sure. But he he he delivered the blow with his shoulder not a -- thus it was legal."

" Per usual watchers our -- I think players watched it sold almost every play all the time."

" So what's relevant education with the helmet anyway that's the hearings so. Relevant launching his legal."

" Ortiz departed the game."

" the official told Ryan Clark that he launched and that's -- got a flat right."

" You know what we've seen flags this year -- not place that we should believe five players for its that would not slack so it's -- like there's not bit. -- he's been lacking in some instances this year. In those particular case but again -- what -- that -- about it -- I'd support that is brutal and that is legal. --"

" I mean autos. Late. And that's like at the flag was late and that's what an Shockley said. I played a hitter rough on the defenseless receiver which explains a lot to me he deserved the flag he deserves a fine but if well Wes Welker. Can forgive them then I guess we all -- any chance."

" East one -- bring it critically. Help rocket docket next Thursday. -- Adams after that work with that doesn't tell him."
