00:00And I think it was all off petty jealousy.
00:01I think they're propping up, meaning like the Bill Polian's.
00:05But even some of the media, Ron Borges, I'd imagine, I think they're propping up spots.
00:10Flygate as a reason to keep him out.
00:14But I think the real reason.
00:15Is people just didn't like him.
00:16And they didn't like dealing with him.
00:17And they didn't like how he dealt with them.
00:19And so.
00:20This is retribution for that.
00:21In the one way they can get retribution.
00:23Which I think is sad and pathetic.
00:24And I.
00:25I didn't always like the way that Bill carried himself.
00:27I never interviewed him, Keefe.
00:28I know you did.
00:29Oh, I did.
00:29I got.
00:30Plenty of snorts and long pauses and just, you know, like making you feel like you asked
00:34the dumb.
00:35That was the toughest question ever.
00:35But like.
00:36That was to me.
00:38That was literally a question I asked.
00:39I was.
00:39So I.
00:40I never interviewed him in a radio setting.
00:41I had volleyed a few questions.
00:44Questions.
00:44Like.
00:45Like a press conference.
00:45Exactly.
00:46And, you know, he'll make you feel awkward there.
00:49So like.
00:49I don't.
00:50I always like how he carried himself.
00:51I don't think he was a great coach by the end.
00:54No.
00:55I don't think he's doing himself any favors in his personal life.
00:57But I can also look at the resume.
00:59Yeah.
01:00Look the other way on all the other stuff and say, the guy's a no-brainer Hall of Famer.
01:03That really shouldn't be hard to do.
01:05No.
01:07There's a bunch of coaches in the Hall of Fame.
01:10So it's not like, you know, Jimmy Johnson, when he called in, he's like, yeah, you can argue who the best coach.
01:15He's of all time.
01:15But this isn't what this is.
01:16This isn't like, we're only allowed one.
01:18Is it Bill or somebody else?
01:20And then, sure, you'd have a split vote.
01:21You'd have guys talking up somebody else and whatever.
01:24But it's like, no.
01:25Of those eligible, and he also made it all the way to this point.
01:28There's different cutoffs, right?
01:30They nominate guys, then it gets to a, I believe, a semifinalist, then down to a finalist.
01:35So for this part of the process, it's separate from the, like, modern-day players.
01:39It is...
01:40There's five contributors, and there's five finalists, and these guys can vote for three.
01:45Three of them.
01:45Right.
01:45It's not even, like, your favorite of the five, which he should be.
01:48He's the clear cut.
01:49He should be.
01:50No offense to Roger Craig and L.C. Greenwood, but he should, yeah, he should get in before
01:55all those guys.
01:56But even if you were, like, even if you were Kraft and Roger Craig's best friend.
02:00And you're like, I have to vote for those guys.
02:02You could still vote for Bill.
