Kap & J. Hood
7/2 8 AM: Albert Breer
[Music] Good morning and welcome in to the Captain J Good Morning Show on a ESPN 1000 and streaming on the ESPN Chicago app with David Kaplan, Jonathan Hood with you. It's now time for "Shotting No Shot" and it's brought to you by that would be ESPN betting alive in Illinois get a hundred dollars in three bets when you make any sports bet that you say good morning in for Shane norling here's Jack McGrath. Good morning guys how's it going? Doing very well we see this breaking news by the way Jack I know you see this on the screen too. Donovan Mitchell agrees to a three-year 150.3 max contract with the Cavs. Oh just when he thought Mitchell will go someplace else cap to increase his chances to win a championship he stands with Cleveland. Yep they said it's the precursor to as he goes through this extension to getting a 300 and whatever million dollar deal down the road so he's locked in probably for the rest of his I would say at least his productive years in the NBA he will be a cab. I would I'd be the first to say poor I'd love to see Donovan Mitchell in a Bulls uniform but it'd be the same situation they wouldn't they wouldn't know how to build around a Donovan Mitchell so as much as it'd be cool filming being a Bulls uniform the Cavs are still better than the Bulls at this point in time. Yes they are so significant. Well let's lead it off with that shot or no shot Donovan Mitchell can be the best player on a championship team because I don't think so I don't think he's the guy to build around. Nobody's have really good number two. Yeah it's a no shot and this is again where Mitchell did a nice job of the jazz. He's been solid when healthy with the Cavs but again look out the mixer built. Look how the Boston Celtics are Indiana. I mean they have the pieces to be able to attend Cleveland. It's gonna be they're like fourth best maybe fifth best in the east but Mitchell would have to be paired with someone else more talented than him to be able to excel with the Cavs I think. Go ahead Jack. Alright so let's go back six months ago in our minds and Craig Council just signed with the Cubs. Everybody was high on Craig Council and Matt Iber Flus was on the hot seat. Well I mean narratives have changed since then and I'll give you shot or no shot at this point. Matt Iber Flus out last Craig Council in Chicago. He's here longer than Craig Council is. Oh god Craig Council has four more years left. Iber Flus says this year and then one more on his contract. Oh boy. Iber Flus. Iber Flus. He out last council. Right coaches our jobs where you get even build Bella check at some point had to go from the Patriots. Coaching is a job unless you're a Nick Saban or a legend or a coach K coaching is a job where you know you're gonna get fired or let go eventually. That's it. That's a really that's all of a question right there. That is a hell of a question. I'm gonna say just because there's so much turnover there's no shot that he out last council council. Yes they're having a bad year but he isn't a accomplished major league manager with a great record of success in year one of a five year deal. I'm gonna say there's no shot. It's a no shot but then again you know of front how I feel about Iber Flus but here's the thing I'm rooting for the team. I just think that I wish they had a coach a little bit more seasoning. Now Iber Flus might win along with the Bears they might win in spite of the Bears as far as the X's and O's like all right coach messed up but you know what we're the elixir to fix the issues with Iber Flus as far as his game management and certain things that he does as a coach. I say I say it's a no shot for me. It's a shot. I think definitely Iber Flus they make the playoffs this year at least there's improvement this year. Let's say the Bears win nine games this year and then next year they make the playoffs he buys himself at least one more if not two years after that if he shows consistent improvement. Council if he doesn't doesn't win this year they try to compete next year doesn't win next year then in year three you start to ask questions about it. I would think about his job security. I don't know. Say the thing is I don't know what the Cubs look like in a couple years. You have a two and three million dollar payroll and so I just feel like the Cubs will find a way to get this turned. I know that they might take a step back but I kind of feel like council is going to be here. It's a four year deal or five for council is it? It is a five year 40 million dollar deal. He'll serve the most of that cap for that money. I ain't eating all that. No this ain't money Williams in the dugout. And they have too much talent in their minor leagues. They'll get this thing turned around. They will. So we already talked about how the Cubs have a very difficult schedule before the all-star break. The Brewers on the other hand their schedule is quite easy going into the all-star break. They get three against the Rockies who we saw couldn't even meet the White Sox. So they're on the bottom end of the spectrum. They have a couple against the Dodgers which is tougher but then they get the Pirates and the Nationals given the fact that the Brewers have an easier schedule. Cubs have a harder schedule and they're already eleven games back shot or no shot by the all-star break. The Cubs could be 15 games back of the division. That's a shot. That's a shot. Absolutely. Yeah okay so the Rockies are as bad as the White Sox. I knew that coming into the season Jack they just don't have enough pitching Chris Bryant hurt and then water's wet. And then you have the the the Dodgers okay difficult. That's a tough tough spot against the Dodgers. Pittsburgh scrappy they will see schemes in that series and then there's Washington to round out the the first half of the season. So yeah that's that's a shot only because cap and this is not it's not saying that the Angels are just some pushover. I'm just saying that the Cubs have to find the way to start hitting now. Hitting, running the bases all the stuff we talked about in spring training. The Cubs need to go back to square one and just take care of the little things. That's what sucks. This way a lot of teams go through slumps offensively but when you have nothing in the back of the bullpen and then on top of that you're struggling with the fundamentals running bases. Not feeling your position. Don't know how to execute a rundown. No that's bad right there. Bad baseballs say this so beyond disappointing to where this thing is from where it was. Let's do it a podcast just here we're talking. They were eight games eight games under 500 and all of a sudden I mean it's gonna be games over 500 and now you're this this talking about 15 games back brutal crazy that's a shot moving on Jason Tatum five-year deal runs through the 2030 season so that still feels like a long way away. We're on we're only in 2024 still six years out but I'll say this shot or no shot. The Bulls won't win a playoff series before Jason Tatum's extension is up for 2030 shot or no shot. No shot. No shot. No shot. They will they will win a series yes yes in 2029. And the Tatum deal cap I mean so here's you you know the the bearded producer we have in here the executive producer one of them here. Shay Norlin talking about Jalen Brown and wasn't a fan of Jalen Brown can dribble his left hand. Somehow some way Jalen Brown and Jason Tatum work together to win a championship and they are making money hand over fist both of them. Huge money. Huge money. And their ownership says now we're gonna sell now. You gotta love that right like we are going to hit the cash out button because we won a championship and and here's the other great thing. They pay Tatum and Brown through the nose and they're like yeah we're sell we're not we're not gonna pay it. Someone's got a campus at us. They're just cashing and getting their money. There's billions over the tax just to win a championship. It's awesome. Cash out cash out. See you later. Thanks for coming. Sir would you like another hand? No I'm good. Take that. You walked away from the table cap. He's like okay that's enough. I'll cut my losses here. Yeah it is unbelievable. Unbelievable. I just know I believe that the Bulls will be under different management and they will win a playoff series. When you say different management explain a new GM and president of basketball operations. Oh wow. They just extend that ever is lead by three years. I do not believe they'll be under different. Well they're under different management. How long does that management tree build take? Because we're talking let's say five-year timeline let's say five years. A.K. gets at least this year and then you're talking about a four-year rebuild which would make sense but let's say A.K. so A.K. would have to basically be out after this year then because three years is going to turn it in effortlessly. They're not. What did Jerry's pass and then Michael Reinsor's pass indicates to you two gentlemen that they're going to move on by these guys out? No shot. I have a five-year window. What do you got? I got a five-year window. If it's three years I still feel like the Bulls can make the playoffs under new management after that deals over. I would say make the playoffs. I said win a playoff series. Yeah that's a shot. But I'm pushing it always to the end Jack. Yeah I just think our tourists in Eversley will still be here. In 29? Yes. If they're still there in 29 I'm off the show. Take that. Don't you dare. I bought that cap. If Eversley in Carne Show this is still in place in 2029 so long everybody gone. No shot. It's the cap and she show hoodies in retirement. Take that. Yeah I'll be gone cap. I'll be going where the old timers I'll just go do a nice weekend show. A nice little you know nice little Saturday morning show or Sunday morning show. Good morning everyone and welcome to the Sunday morning chapel. That's what I'll be doing. Maybe you could do crosstalk with Chauncey. Maybe so. I'll do that absolutely. Jack will produce me and we will do a nice little nice little comfortable. There's your future Jack. Two hours. Oh boy. A nice two-hour show with an almost sixty-year-old. How about that? Sounds great. If we can get Jaymore to do the audio for that. Jaymore will also will take care of me. Absolutely. All right you're going to do a do you have one more? Can you sneak in one more? I can sneak in one more. Okay. Let's say apparently Arlington Heights is back in play. Daily Herald reported that Arlington Heights is making another pitch to the Bears and there's more chatter around Arlington Heights again. Just a quick one shot or no shot. There's wind up in Arlington Heights after all of this. That's a shot. You have absolute shot. I believed it the whole time. I've never believed they're going to the city. It makes no sense. No tailgating. Yes it would be a nice stadium but it doesn't solve a lot of the other issues that long walk you have to make over. Come on now. What are we doing? Get there where you can build paradise. Yeah that's a shot cap. Again for those that just parachute into the city and that know the inner workings of the politics in this city and boy there's a lot of them. It was a nice little dramatic look at what the Bears can look like with a fresh stadium around the soldier field you know grounds in that area but that doesn't solve the issues. You want something comfortable for the fan and I think that what they laid out at paradise and all the little shops and stores the whole mall and of course the beautiful new stadium that's what's needed. It's too bad it's not gonna happen in Chicago but I read what what you said Jack it's it's gonna happen in Arlington Heights because that's where the spaces that's where the Bears should be. I don't think there's any question. Again Cap and I are Chicagoans. We love the idea of the Bears being in Chicago but with politics if there's no room where else are you gonna go? You know. No question. It's too bad but that's the way that's the way it is in the city. The quote from the mayor said a lot. We've worked very hard to come to an agreement with the school districts that I think the Bears can be comfortable with and that's been communicated to the Bears and that's what we're discussing on Mayor Tom Hayes told the Daily Herald. So I feel very comfortable that should the Bears re-engage with us to continue to explore the Arlington Park site that the road is going to be much easier than we found in past months. Yeah that's how it works. Yeah. Chicago. The city that works. Albert Breyer's gonna we're gonna move him up and we'll talk to him next about some of the story lines around the NFL. Then we'll do around the NFL at 835 so Albert's next on Captain Jay Hood. Welcome back to Captain Jay Hood on Chicago's on for sports. ESPN Chicago. Hello football on ESPN 1000. Hello Bird. Albert Breyer. Hey Bird, senior NFL writer for SI.com joins Captain Jay Hood. Bird said what? You're it Bird. On ESPN 1000. What do you mean I'm it? We see that's the game. I just tag you and you're it until you tag somebody else. Albert Breyer. No no I'm not playing a game I'm reading and I'm not fit. Okay. On Chicago's home for sports. What Bird is it? Albert Breyer joins us every Tuesday here on the cap and Jay Hood morning show from SI.com and Monday morning quarterback and Albert is on the hotline. Karak's Tyranado Hotline. Rattle, rattle, thunder, batter. Boom, boom, boom. Good morning Albert. How are you? Good morning guys. How are we doing? Doing very well. Cap and I have talked a lot about the toughest divisions in football. We think that the NFC North is gonna be difficult and we also agree that the AFC North is interesting also. What would you say is the toughest division to figure out in the NFL right now? I mean I'd probably say the AFC North just because you know Pitt's first of a while card they've been good forever but they haven't been really good like like the level of Tom Mike Tomlin seems were at the beginning in a while. The Bengals obviously a lot of hinges on the health and Joe burrow and if he's healthy you know they're I think still the same team that went to the second day of the AFC title games and a Super Bowl Cleveland last year with their fourth and fifth tackles and four or five different quarterbacks made the playoffs in one eleven games you know and then you have Baltimore team that obviously was the best in football during the regular season last year so like how does the loss of three-fifths of their offensive line and Patrick Queen how does that affect them you know so I just I think with every one of those teams there's like some level of variable you know I didn't even mention the quarterback situation in Pittsburgh which is obviously vastly different they turn that over completely I just I think that's a difficult one to figure out because there's so many different variables in play the NFC North is interesting of course you know but I think we have an idea of what Detroit is I think we have an idea of what Green Bay is you know Chicago we'll see what happens Minnesota we'll see what happens because they're both you know bringing you into quarterbacks and there's been some level of change on those rosters I just say with all four of the teams in the AFC North you have all these different factors where it's you know a little difficult to forecast exactly the way they're gonna play out and Albert as you look at this time in the NFL the Bears still potentially could be looking at Conner Williams at center I think he's gonna go through another physical and see how his knee is doing they're still looking for an edge rusher you have any insight on what Conner Williams might be thinking that probably the number one offensive line prospect still on sign and is David Bakhtiari in play anywhere yeah so I think well obviously with both Conner Williams and David Bakhtiari health is a huge question um I would say with Conner Williams once he's healthy you feel really good about what he can do he can play all three different all three line positions you know and that's not all that common so you know even if you're not getting a top shelf center right like then at the very least a field of the floor for him would be you're getting a guy who can give you depth at every single position right like so um except for maybe love tackle so I think that that that piece of it like you know I think it's just a matter to be patient with him Bakhtiari is a different kettle of fish like Bakhtiari is very boomer boss you know like I just I don't think you can sign David Bakhtiari and say yes we're gonna rely on him to be our starter for 17 years which is sad it's not his fault you know what I mean like right but he's the he's dealt with a lot health wise he's a great great player when he's healthy it's just you look at the medical history of it and it's like all right like we hope we're gonna sign him we uh make sure we feel comfortable with not having him for five games for 10 games god forbid for the whole season you know what I mean like he just it's just a different thing all together we're kind of with a lot younger and Connor Williams injury issues are more isolated than David Bakhtiari who has a long long history with that need and other ailments so we continue to see these stories about the Kansas City Chiefs possibly trying to move to Kansas it'll be a Chiefs royals combination moving to the state of Kansas tell us about those direct flights from Boston's 11 worth yeah well it's going to be moving to love to work or to peek or it's great then where I have I have actually been the great then Kansas believe it or not for my buddy's wedding which is hard to get to yeah it's I mean like that is a bigger state than you realize once you start once you drive once you drive through it you realize how much land there is there oh yeah um you know I like I think these are always interesting because you know these places these cities that have the ability to to pit municipalities against each other um you know obviously Washington they've done that in hitting Maryland against Virginia against the District of Columbia and who's gonna who's gonna get the team and um and where's the stadium gonna be built you know and um you know Charlotte like we saw what David Tepper did not that that really worked out for anybody but hitting North Carolina versus South Carolina the practice of the things and South Carolina gets it and winds up with a lot of debt and a big hunt of concrete that they didn't know what to do with and Rock Hill um it's just it's the way teams do business now and um you know if if you're one of these teams that sits in the border um you know then you are you know that's one of the levers you can pull and so you know obviously if the if the if the Chiefs wind up going to Kansas it's going to be the like Overland Park or something like that it's not going to be going to they're not going to be going deep into the state um I think for most fans um you know this is the kind of change is pretty I don't think I don't think many fans are going to feel this change very much you know um you know but it is a way that teams sort of do what they need to do to try to wrangle public money um which we could have a much longer argument about whether that's right or not yeah so you know what happens now that if that if they move the Royals and the Chiefs now all of a sudden Kansas City turns into Oakland like yeah like where's where's our major teams you know besides soccer so it would be in the general area okay yeah but I mean that's a that's a thing though like this would be like so this would be like the this would be like the Warriors moving to San Francisco it wouldn't be like the Raiders and the A is going to Vegas if that makes sense right still in the general area yeah okay so I'm in Wisconsin right now I'm talking to a Packer fan last night and he's all of a sudden now in a year a year ago I ran into this guy and I don't know about this Jordan love now he wants to pay him $55 million a year yeah it's like wow that changed quick can they get a deal done Shay and I have had this argument where I if I was the Packers I would go to him and say okay you proved it for one year one year we went to Super Bowl one year love you glad you're here let's go four years at 45 million a year we'll guarantee a hundred you'll still be in your 20s when you get to the end of that deal or is he truly going to get 55 58 million dollars well I think you might be focusing on the wrong thing there with the gross number is a factor I think the structure of the deal is going to be more important how fast does he get his money I think there's a great case study this like everybody on the surface thinks that Trevor Lawrence got exactly what Joe Burrow got right that's not even close to being true now that the total number was 55 million per year which like over the life of the deal that's fine those match up but you know if you start to dig into how quickly those guys are getting their cash it's not even close to the same thing Joe Burrow over the first three years of his deal is getting 36 million dollars more that's 12 million per year more than Trevor Lawrence is now eventually the numbers catch up on the back end of the deal where Trevor Lawrence has these big numbers on the back end but the bet there is that Joe Burrow's never going to see the back end of that deal right because when they have two years after that deal they're going to renegotiate so what's on the last two years doesn't really matter that much so I think the structure of these deals is really important because sometimes we see these big back end numbers that aren't guaranteed and really aren't all that relevant and those are just sort of placeholders and in some cases those numbers get inflated so the agent can say yes like this deal is worth the same as that guy's deal I think what you're going to want to pay attention to which you're in love and this goes for two or two for different reasons because the injury concerns how much is guaranteed how many years out are guaranteed and how fast is the money getting to him right so in other words like it's 55 million dollars per year in new money that's added on to the two years or the year that's left on just deal right he's got one deal to get that's folded in and how quickly is that money getting to him how much is getting year one year two year three right like is that that average really high through three years or is it low through three years then the back end he's getting more those are all the things that are fungible here those are all the things that he can play with so I think that that's the issue with both two way I think the teams want to sign those guys long term you know with Tua the question obviously is the injuries and you know like how far out are you willing to guarantee and I can see both sides that too or Tua you know wants to lock down as much money as he can fully guaranteed having been to the last day he was kept injury coming out of college you know and then I think for Jordan Love it's capitalizing on how he finished his season and in the Packers and dolphins in both these cases are protecting against the case of love the chance that maybe there was a little bit of more flash there right let's see you want protect against that the dolphins are protecting against you know obviously the chance that Tua's body breaks down so these are complicated negotiations but I think with like the offer that they've made both teams have shown to this point that they do want to get you know something done with their guys Albert as always we appreciate your time have a great 4th of July all right thank god that'd be cool if you'd like to see in the city soon Albert Albert Breyer winners on the outline correct cap coming up next okay hear

jhood and hit that subscribe button that way you miss nothing from our show around the NFL here's Jack McGrath well camp i think i'm going to make you a little bit upset with this first one around the NFL CBS sports wrote an article with a panel of their writers about NFL teams who are expected to over perform expectations and then teams that are expected to under perform expectations two of the five writers said that the bears won't over perform expectations or they were there picked to under perform expectations next season Brian Diardo of CBS sports says i'm leery when it comes to putting two high of expectations on a rookie starting quarterback jorney dijani said the schedule none i've seen north is just too tough for the bears are their concerns valid wait a minute who are these dudes CBS sports writers Brian Diardo and jordan dijani hold on a second brian high spell dijardo d-e-a-r-d-o okay let's see what this dude's NFL chops are brian dijardo i don't even know who brian dijardo is and when you punch brian dijardo in you don't get anything nothing you get a recipe for jordan air yeah pretty much uh you know what tell brian and what's the other dudes name jordan dijani yeah tell jordan to stick it where the sun don't shine i disagree with them vehemently one of those guys make a really good mustard though that would be dijio oh thank you pardon brian diardo former lead the pittsburgh steelers writer for two four seven sports experience sports reporter that has covered sports at the high school collegiate and professional levels yeah i'll pass on his i'll pass on his uh look at our football all right there was an article over the weekend uh a report from espn saying that and jeff darlington saying that right now to uh is not getting the contracts he wants from the miami dolphins they won't reach the jared golf trevor lorence numbers would you pay to a big contract if you're miami bordering that like jared golf trevor lorence top five quarterback salary buddy well this is the conversation that we've had right to determine whether or not to uh should be in that same stratosphere as some of the other top quarterbacks in the nfl and i just think that he and trevor lorence i think it's neck and neck i think we just talked about this a couple days ago cap about now who's going to be the better quarterback when it's all squared away look two has got a lot of weapons around him that team is could be a front of your playoff team is just that there's a ceiling on their success with two i believe i think they can get to the playoffs i don't know how far they can get in it but who doesn't like their weapons and what they've been able to build so far in the mc daniel's just saying like say it out loud two a tungal by a low of sixty million dollar a year quarterback no shot that's the thing right you know what you know what that is that's paying zach laveen just don't have to pay him shay and i have been arguing about that the last few days and when they did it full disclosure i i agree that said can't let him walk out for nothing remember arguing with my brother and he said he's not good enough bite it swallow it right now that we're getting rid of him and getting nothing that's it done and i said you can't do that you got to keep it guess what he was right i was wrong that guy can't be moved now attaching a first round pick that leads me to tour can he stay healthy can you win the super ball with him do you believe he's the guy if you do roll the dice and pay him i don't so i'm going to give him 60 minutes i have no other option figure it out i mean that's that's the other side of it though cap it's what abdala always says abdala always says well okay if you don't like the quarterback you have in place who do you have that's better that can replace them right away and it's kind like if you're the dolphins you had been irrelevant for a long time up to this point and it's kind of like well if not two of then who is there someone you could draft or sonically you could have someone as good or better than two that's always a question i like and this is the going right now no matter if we like it or not guys that we think our average players or average quarterbacks are going to get paid through the nose just based on how much money this out there from a television standpoint how these teams are growing how the NFL is growing is he a 50 million dollar a year quarterback no will we will someone pay him that's still up in the air that wouldn't surprise me it would it would make sense to us but this is how it goes in the NFL now Jack McGrath yeah haven't seen a lot of quarterback franchise tags recently i wonder if two is one of those guys that winds up being franchise tag next year because they just need them for one more year during their competitive window and then they have to move on it doesn't make sense though that makes it out loud two and talk about a loa fifty or fifty five million dollars a year long term maybe for one year when you have to win when he still have Tyree killing Jalen wattle and all those guys but how do you when you have to start rebuilding again you don't want that contract on the book so let's talk about another contract though the athletic said one contract worth watching for each team they listed DJ Moore as the contract worth listing for the Bears saying Kevin Fishbane said maybe there's a chance a contract extension is done sooner rather than later would you pay DJ Moore right now and lock him up especially with the way wide receiver contracts are inflating are you gonna wait a little bit see what you have with Roma Dunes a see how he works with Keenan Allen are you gonna wait to pay him pay him right now and maybe get a cheaper deal or wait to pay just for that safety net Pedro oh I think that if I could get a done a deal done now I just don't like to have stories lingering where someone's asking the player or asking me every time there's a a mic in my beak about DJ Moore or who's gonna get signed who's now I like to be able to short this thing up I like to be able to run the franchise like a Sandpresty let me sign my guys that way you're not asking me lingering questions about will you sign and will you not sign no controversy I want to be a drama free organization so if I could cap I'd like to get it done now before I have to pay a lot more especially if the Bears get to the playoffs okay so he makes as Jack what did you say his salary was I have 15.85 I think that's about right he's the 17th highest paid receiver right now in the okay he's 27 years of age Johnny yeah 15.85 next year at 28 it goes down to 14.85 and he's a free agent after that for 2020 after the 25 seasons you've got him for two more years um I would I would probably probably try and start negotiations now because I love him he's shown he could stay healthy he fits in here he's awesome in the room the whole deal so yeah I would probably start my negotiations now and try and get it done before opening check what did you say he's 27 I believe that's correct yeah he is 27 that's correct just yeah he's 27 well today's medicine cap he's that's the new 22 yeah I was reading an article yesterday we'll get into it this week yeah for every five years you live now you're going to get one back if you live a healthy lifestyle because of the advancements in diet exercise and medical science and a guy like him Jack I mean I know the agent number the number Alia taught us that it's just it's more like 21 22 and he just turned 27 April 14 so he will play this season in his age 27 year I mean yesterday's show we talked about Mike Evans right at the the veteran that's been around for a long time on his way to the Hall of Fame that guys in his 30s and still can get it done even in his age and so what more when the bears get to where they want to be and hopefully that'll be this upcoming season moving forward he will be a cornerstone that you can pay and just say hey Caleb we got you a solid veteran that will help you and you will help him I think that's a great one-two punch I love it I agree agreed I don't know what they'll do with Keenan Allen let's see if he stays healthy let's see if he handles playing a cold weather so we'll see where that goes smart money I think waddle said to me he'll play 13 games Keenan Allen I'm sure because that's what he does he always has a tweak of a hamstring a groin and a bleak or whatever so we'll see we will find out you don't need to extend him yet the 8 a.m. hour of the Captain Jay Hood morning show is brought to you by I already see oh that would be did you just I already did it in the headlines kid all right I don't shirk my responsibilities that would be a village of Bolingbrook 2024 live golf individual championships at Bolingbrook golf club which I've played many times and we call Dan Hampton on that course the human ATF I got the money I got a dollar thank you Bernie's book bank.org take that and you still own O13 all right coming up more your whole cost coming up 3-1-2-3-3-2-ESP-3-3-2-3-7-7-6-0-4-0 if you aren't hold you will be on the air coach Q and Stan Bowman are back in the National Hockey League should they be well you address that coming up next on Captain Jay Hood Captain Jay Hood I'm back we are back baby we are back we are back last on Chicago's home for sports ESP and Chicago Captain Jay Hood on ESB in 1000 and we are streaming on the ESP and Chicago app Cap just one note here about the Blackhawks you know we've talked about how the bulls might be resetting their franchise might be like Duros might be gone Levine Vusovich and you might be seeing a lot of young bulls out there what about the Blackhawks have you been noticing over the wire with the Hawks have been doing lately they're adding on a lot of veterans to their roster they are they went got table terra vinan they went picked up Tyler Bertuzzi among a handful of guys that they have added to get this thing back on stable ground they were able to move on unfortunately from Kane and Taves I don't think the whole Taves and Kane thing ended the way anyone wanted it to end but it did but now they're going to try and get competitive in a hurry not telling you they're going to win the Stanley Cup I'm not telling you they're going out and they're going to make everyone forget what happened in 10 13 and 15 when they want it but they're going to be stable now there's going to be some level of expectation and I watch all the games because I enjoy it I do I really like coming home on a winter night go emit my wife loves hockey hey Mindy hawks are on you it was they're not very good now they're going to at least be competitive so when I lock in on pet boil and the guys leading me into the game I'm going to be excited to watch I like what they did Ben Nard also an attraction Ben Nard as Travis Kelsey would call him so they're so you got veterans around a young player that only helps holy jumping Darren Pang you got something to watch possibly this upcoming season yeah you have a lot to watch and it's funny people have asked on Twitter occasionally why do you guys play that Ben Nard thing and you just said it was from Travis Kelsey who said when he and Taylor are making dinner Taylor Swift are making dinner we look to see if the Blackhawks are playing because that's our favorite player to watch Connor Bedard who's that that's why he calls him Bed Nard now we also had news that you teased a little bit ago coach Q Al McIsaac and executive and Stan Bowman the former GM who have all been banned from the NHL in the wake of the Kyle Beach scandal for two and a half years they have now been cleared and can start talking to teams about working in the league again and for people wondering coach Q's involvement so they were trying to win the Stanley Cup when he was told reportedly allegedly in a meeting hey we've got an issue with the video coach here's what's going on and his response allegedly was I'm trying to finish off winning the Stanley Cup here you're my boss as you guys handle this and that was the extent of it and when it broke that it was this scandal he was dragged in as part of it because of his inaction he has admitted that and he lost his job in Florida now he wants to come back to the NHL and coach the reason for those individuals that we just mentioned with Quinnville Bowman and McIsaac the league says that it was a result of their inadequate response upon being informed of the 2010 allegations of from Kyle Beach that he was assaulted sexually assaulted and so I guess my question and so when I saw the headline come across my phone like okay these three are back in the league after all of this I'm just wondering Captain you feel like they're hireable again after all of this say for instance we take it out of sports and there's someone that was uh that knew about sexual assault maybe not the reason for it but it was aware of it and they were punished by their job or punished somehow those guys hireable again this I'm not going to say this is a commonplace in the National Hockey League but I remember you and I you know really talking about this and really going over this story and talking about it together and just we talked about how you know if you know something you should say something it shouldn't just be part of the organization well that's over there I'm just concentrating on just being a head coach whatever's happening you handled over there just kind of you know push the ball over to the side I'm just wondering because of what we know about it do you believe that they'll be back in the league in some way shape or form yeah I can't speak for Stan I can't speak for Al Makhayzak I but Joel I do think we'll get another opportunity to coach in the league and I think he should again he said you guys handle it you're my bosses I'm trying to win the Stanley Cup maybe that was a expected response in this situation but it was the wrong response that you have got to and looking back on it he needed to say I want something done right now right now I do not want this guy anywhere around this organization I don't want to just stay the course because we're trying to finish off the Stanley Cup final here he should be immediately we're going to take this to the authorities sorry if it causes bad PR for the organization too bad that's got to get taken care of he said you guys handle it I'm coaching the team right now trying to win the Stanley Cup so he paid dearly he had a 35 million dollar deal in Florida they fired him immediately and he's been banned from the league the last two and a half years so I believe people deserve a second chance I know Joel he said good person I like Joel a lot he made a mistake and I think he should get a chance you know I'm not saying this is always the case with some coaches but cap you've been around them the idea that I'm just locked in on coaching I don't know what I don't know what's around me if it's negative I don't want to know someone else has to take care of that because I'm just focused on trying to win the next game we can say Joe Paterno was like that there's a number of coaches like that just again tunnel vision I just had the blinders on just trying to get x's and o's out and I just think as a head coach as a leader of Vin you got to be able to know every angle of the organization you just can't turn a blind eye to it you know and that's for everybody agreed so totally agree but again it was a horrible chapter for the organization yeah horrible and I pray that it never happens again to any team to any person male female whatever it is but I do believe Joel deserves a second opportunity after a significant penalty significant I'm glad I changed by the way because Betmo was asked on June 8th about the status of Bowman and Quinnville and he said they're not eligible but now they are that's interesting they cannot sign a contract with the team I believe till July 10 so that's next week but they can begin negotiations to return to the league in a in a you know a position what moves should the Cubs and Sox make hand the Cubs turn it around before the all-star break we'll address that in two minutes on cap and jayhood
