00:00I'm going to start with this Shohei Ohtani is an amazing baseball player and is doing something that you know we haven't seen done in a long time but can we stop and I heard Jones and Keith talking about this yesterday can we stop trying to compare Travis Hunter to Shohei Ohtani that happened on this show yesterday because it is I think wisely so by it is by a listener.
00:27It is two completely different things just because Shohei can do it at major league level it is much different there's no game planning there's there the pictures of he's pitching once every five days so he might not be you know even working on his pitching every single day because he doesn't want to burn his arm out the the level of what you have to do mentally and learning a game plan study in film understanding the route tree work your
00:56I know you hate the word Greg craft every day as a receiver or as a defensive back okay you don't have the ability to miss days so when we talk about has it been done before and we say well look at Shohei show it no it's the last guy to do it consistently in the NFL was concrete Chuck Chuck Bednarik
01:26stop with well if Shohei can do it at an elite level then Travis Hunter could do it at an elite level I think Travis Hunter could definitely be a change of pace gadget guy whether he's playing 95% of the offensive snaps and then they say okay you know we need to stop here and it's third and 15 or third and 12 Travis we're playing man to man you got that guy yeah or vice versa if he's playing 98% of the cornerback
01:56quick screen to you like you can do that but to compare him to a guy in a sport that is way different and the guy who's elite at both hitting and pitching is ridiculous is ridiculous
