00:00Christian Gonzalez spoke in Foxborough about his contract situation the same day that Elliott
00:06Wolfe spoke to the media about the contract situation. And I would say the opinion coming
00:13out of that of most people is and should be, well, that's not going well. So he didn't sign
00:20an extension. That was not an announcement yesterday that we were getting from those
00:23guys, huh? All of our optimism about there being a deal yesterday, I think went right out the
00:29window at about, I don't know, what time did he speak was that? I don't know what time they fired
00:34up the chopper. I'll have to go look at some of the aviation websites there and find that out.
00:39Yeah, find the flight path. That's not great. No, that didn't sound great yesterday. And
00:45I think Christian Gonzalez is feeling, as he put it, frustrated. I think he's fed up is what I think
00:53he is. That's what I gathered from him. And I also gathered that both sides are, are dug in.
01:04I've changed my opinion. I don't think he's going to get a deal. I actually think this now
01:08goes in the opposite direction of where I was yesterday thinking, ah, the parameters are so
01:14simple at this point. It's known what it is. I thought after the Witherspoon deal that the
01:21Patriots caught a big break and that the Witherspoon deal did not smash previous deals and that it would
01:26take just a little bit more and the Gonzalez deal is done. And so without knowing what Christian
01:32Gonzalez is asking for, I feel like this should be closer than it felt yesterday hearing from both
01:39sides. Yeah. Eight first round picks in 2023 have made an all pro team, including Christian
01:51Gonzalez. Every single one of the eight, except for Gonzalez has signed an extension. Everybody
02:01that's in his department has done a deal. He is the last one remaining of that.
02:09The Patriots have plenty of money to spend. They have plenty of cap space to spend. If
02:16you care about that.
