Molecules make you think of chemistry, right? Well, they're also very important in biology. In this video, we're going to look at carbohydrates, proteins and lipids. When I say lipids, I'm talking about fats and oils. Life processes depend on biological molecules, whose structure is related to their function. Do you know that living organisms are actually made from quite a small group of molecules? What do you think the most common molecule in you is? It's actually water. About 55-60% of an adult human's body weight comes from water. And in some organisms, this can be up to 90%.  Bet you didn't expect that. Okay, enough of water for now. Imagine we removed all the water in your body. What would be left? Well, it would pretty much be just proteins, lipids, carbohydrates and nucleic acids such as DNA. So what are these all made of? Well, carbohydrates and lipids are really simple. They just contain three elements. Carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. Proteins are a little more complex, with four or five elements. Carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen and sometimes sulphur. Let's start by looking at carbohydrates. There are three main types of carbohydrate. Monosaccharides, disaccharides and polysaccharides. Simple sugars, like glucose and fructose, are monosaccharides. Sucrose, which is made up of two simple sugars joined together, is a disaccharide. And some carbohydrates are polymers that are made up of lots of sugars joined together and so are called polysaccharides. Starch, glycogen and cellulose are three important polysaccharides. Cellulose is found in plant walls and starch is the storage unit for surplus glucose made in photosynthesis. Glycogen is the storage unit used by animals for surplus glucose and is found in the liver and muscle tissues. Starch is tested for using an iodine solution. If the solution turns blue-black, then starch is present. Now on to proteins. Proteins are also polymers. But whereas in carbohydrates the monomer, or repeating unit, was glucose, for proteins, it's amino acids. The protein then folds up into a complex 3D shape, which is held together by weak bonds. The function of each protein depends on its shape. Because enzymes are proteins and the bonds holding proteins together are weak, this is why enzymes de-nature above certain temperatures. The bonds are broken and the structure of the protein is changed. There are 20 different amino acids that make up proteins. The order of amino acids varies in different proteins and so 20 different amino acids means an almost infinite number of different proteins can be made. It is estimated there are about 50,000 different proteins in the human body alone. You will come across proteins nearly everywhere. For example, in cell membranes where they control the movement of substances during active transport, as enzymes, so in photosynthesis, respiration, DNA copying and digestion, as hormones such as insulin, estrogen and testosterone, and as antibodies for fighting infection. So that's proteins and carbohydrates. Let's end with lipids. Many lipids are triglycerides. These have a single glycerol molecule with three fatty acid tails attached. Different lipids contain different fatty acids.  The liver also makes triglycerides. They are used by cells and tissue for energy or otherwise stored as fat. Some examples of lipids are steroid hormones, cholesterol, vitamin A and vitamin D. So there you have it, the three key biological molecules that are essential to living processes, carbohydrates, proteins and lipids.

Okay Where are we going? She needs to go somewhere To the cave of origin. Ah, it's blinking green. That usually helps


So, when it comes to COVID-19, without question, the news is looking a lot better, right? When it comes to daily new cases, that's dropping substantially, deaths per day, also decreasing. This is all phenomenal news. Having said that, though, we have to remain cautiously optimistic for the time being because we're still averaging more than 90,000 new cases per day. If you told us back in March of 2020 that we'd be celebrating 90,000 cases per day, that would be unfathomable because, you know, at that time, we wouldn't have known that would ever get that bad to the point where we'd be celebrating 90,000 cases per day. But having said that, though, it's decreasing, and that's really good. But it's not over. The light is at the end of the tunnel, but it is not over yet, which is why we still need to make sure that we pay people to stay home because people need to make a living.  However, since things are starting to look up, the GOP predictably is already trying to just pretend as if the pandemic is not a thing. Like at this crucial time when we're finally starting to get the virus under control, now they're saying, let's just act like it's over already. They just want the pandemic to last forever. So I want to show you this graphic that House GOP Leader Kevin McCarthy tweeted out. He says, the best stimulus plan is to fully reopen our economy. In other words, I don't want to give people another round of survival checks. I just want to reopen the economy, pretend as if the pandemic is over, and send the peasants off to die, basically. More than half a million Americans have already died because of this pandemic. If we actually did what he said we should do, how much more would die? I mean, what's it going to take to make Republicans like Kevin McCarthy actually take this virus seriously? A million deaths? Two million deaths? They just, they don't seem to care. And he's making this dangerous recommendation at a time when the CDC is warning that the UK strain, which is highly contagious, could become dominant by March. So no, we shouldn't be reopening the economy. Now that we're finally starting to get a grip on cases, get it under control, contain the virus. Now is not the time to let our foot off the gas. That's idiotic. I don't know how else to describe it.  Having said that, though, this is going to be the dominant narrative now. There's going to be more pressure by ghouls to reopen the economy, not just Republicans but Democrats as well, because these are capitalists who care more about profits than they do about the health and well-being of people. Now I want to point you to a segment that aired on Fox News with Stuart Varney. He talked to a guy wearing a cow suit for whatever reason.  The things that he says as to why he's opposed to the lockdown, it's going to make your head explode. So now we can't fly from state to state without a vaccination card, but we can vote without an ID card. We're getting played to such a massive level here and Americans are like frogs in warm water. They're turning up to heat and we're not jumping out. We've got to call an end to it all and stand up for ourselves because we've given away all of our rights in the name of safety. Unlock for heaven's sake. Stop these restrictions on our everyday lives, on our freedom. Can we put up that graphic again showing the number of new cases way down to 41% decline in new cases and a 14-day change, 22% decline in new deaths? If ever there was a time for a brave politician to stand up and say, come on boys, unlock, get on with it. Now's the time, isn't it, Scott? Stuart, 100% correct. We don't have the money. We're bankrupting my great-great-grandchild and as we speak, we just don't have the money. So open up. That's the problem. And again, our elites are telling us to wear a second and maybe a third mask. At the same time, we've got 12 states that are lifting their mask mandates.  They'll trust the people that are our leaders until a point where they can see that this just isn't working out. You need to have a vaccine ID maybe to fly from state to state, but you don't need one to vote. Or Gavin Newsom going to go over all of those signatures because they're calling for his ad. But when it came to the voting for the absentee ballots, they don't care about if there's a signature or not. I mean, this has gotten to such a point here where if you have to stand up or they're just going to take everything away, and I don't have a tinfoil hat on, right? I'm not a crazy person, but this is leading down a road that I don't want to go. We started with 15 days to stop the spread and it's turned into stay at home until you accept communism. That's an excellent out cue, Scotty. That's a really good one. That will live forever on videotech. We're going to replay that forever. You're all right, Scott. Calm down, relax, lad. We're going to be all right. I don't even know where to begin.   I don't get the shtick.   Now I get that he was trying to be like half serious there, but he literally said that the goal is to get us to stay at home until we accept communism. So you're suggesting that Joe Biden, a capitalist, is actually a communist? How do you even respond to this level of stupidity? How do you address this in a good faith manner? Because this isn't a serious argument. Like, in order to actually respond to this substantively, you'd have to assume that it's in good faith and serious, but this isn't serious. Like, this is idiocy. The goal of the government is to get us to stay home so we become accustomed to communism. Do you know what communism is? Do you even know what capitalism is?  Like, it speaks to the depravity and idiocy of the right. Wow. So he tries to make this equivalent between needing to be vaccinated in order to fly and voting without an ID. He says we can't fly from state to state without a vaccination card, but we can vote without an ID card. First of all, that's not mandatory, but it should be.  Second of all, these things are very different. Having an ID shouldn't determine whether or not you're able to exercise your right to vote. However, when it comes to flying, if you're not vaccinated, if you're not careful, you can endanger the lives of other folks. So this is obviously a false equivalence, but he thought that this point was so good that he made it twice.  And then Stuart Barney decided to chime in and he said, stop these restrictions on our everyday lives on our freedom. Your freedom hasn't been restricted, Karen. The lockdowns are necessary. They're depressing. They're inconvenient, albeit they're necessary because we have to stay inside to save lives. Like is there an area in the Constitution that says that we should be allowed to spread our germs at indoor restaurants? I just I don't understand why they expect us to take them seriously when they're conflating their inability to dine indoors with like them losing their liberty. Is it that big of a deal to you? Like can't you just do takeout? I just I don't understand. Like these people are so selfish that they just don't care about others. You know what? I want to be able to dine indoors and go to a movie theater.  Just pretend like the pandemic isn't a thing and if people die, people die. I'm bored. I just it's depressing to see this and it's tiring, quite frankly, because we've been dealing with this since the beginning of the pandemic when, you know, the Lieutenant Governor of Texas was I think one of the first who claimed that we should sacrifice grandma to the gods of capitalism and just pretend like the pandemic isn't a thing. And we've seen what happens if we don't take it seriously. We've seen that even when we take it somewhat seriously, hundreds of thousands of people die.  Now the cow guy said this and it's interesting because he says this and it really speaks to the moral depravity, moral bankruptcy of capitalism. He says, we just don't have the money. We're bankrupting my great, great grandchildren as we speak. He just gave away the game there. He's inadvertently saying that he knows that reopening the economy is going to kill people, but it's all about money to him. People's health and well-being, that is less important than my great, great grandchildren going into debt, which it doesn't even work that way.  But I mean, this is conservatism in a nutshell. The lives of human beings isn't as important as capital in this country.  Now maybe they'd feel differently if they lost the love when the COVID-19 or suffered from it themselves, but either way, this is just disgusting. Of course, this is Fox News, so it's what we've come to expect. We shouldn't take them seriously, and we definitely shouldn't take them seriously when they bring on people who dress up as cows and expect us to take them seriously when they talk about very serious issues related to the economy and death.


So team keep it clean. It's March 23rd, so you know what that means. Today is obviously a very special day for me personally because today marks the day where we supposed to be eligible to reapply for monetization with YouTube again. So this morning, or last night actually, went to sleep, maybe about 11 or something, and wasn't thinking about it, but my body woke me up at like 12.30.  It's time. It's officially the 23rd. So I went to YouTube to go reapply, but the reapply button was not accessible to me. So I was like, huh. Then I was thinking, okay, okay, well, maybe YouTube, I know their headquarters is in California, so maybe they three hours back. So all right, cool. I go to sleep. If I wake up around three, cool. If not, then cool. I just do it in the morning. Went to sleep.  So he started coughing, woke up, took care of him. Then after he was straight, went to go reapply, because it was after three o'clock, AM. So I go to look on YouTube and the reapply button still not accessible to me. Oh, okay, all right. So then I just sleep on it, wake up tomorrow morning, whatever, cool. See what it was looking like.  So I haven't been able to reapply yet. Reached out to their support team, and it was a lot of the running around. They didn't give me any detailed information. A lot of it was information that I just gotta assume for myself. Like I did this morning, because I assumed that, all right, 12 AM, that's when it's gonna be March 23rd, I'll be good, nope. All right, maybe YouTube, they three hours back, because they over there in California, nope. All right, wake up in the morning, gonna be straight, nope. And then when I talked to chat support, they were like, oh, well, it should be available within the next 24 hours. Like, but that doesn't make any sense. Why isn't it available now? And they were like, oh, well, we operate on Pacific time. I'm thinking, okay, well, excellent. What are your hours of operation? What are YouTube's hours of operation? She's like, oh, we are open 24 seven. So I'm like, exactly. So it should be available now. They're like, oh, just within 24 hours it should be. And it's just been a process. As y'all know, it's been a very frustrating process. It's been a process where I've had a lack of solid information. I've had a lack of detailed information. And that's made it that much more frustrating. And I know a lot of people can say the same thing when it's come to the negotiations between Lamar Jackson and the Baltimore Ravens. There's been a lack of solid information. And I know a lot of fans are frustrated. A lot of fans have been upset. A lot of fans have just been tired, exhausted with this entire process. But just like with YouTube and just like with Lamar Jackson and the Ravens, we just gotta wait it out a little bit longer. So we'll see how things go. But in today's special episode of Questions from Subs, our first question is gonna start with somebody who thinks that this could be the holdup that Lamar Jackson is really waiting on when it comes to signing a deal with the Baltimore Ravens. But before we get into that, I gotta give a special shout out to the newest Team Keep It Clean Patron, my guy, DJ Devon J. I appreciate you becoming a Team Keep It Clean Patron. My friend, thank you for that. And if any of y'all would like to become a Team Keep It Clean Patron, you can go to patreon.com slash angravenvids. And if you don't want to, that's fine as well. And real quick, make sure y'all subscribe to the channel. I know there's a lot of people that be watching, which we appreciate, but make sure you subscribe too. So you turn the notifications on so you don't miss a video, because there's a lot of videos sometimes, especially depending on the day. But turn on the notifications, subscribe, so you don't miss nothing. Cause I don't want nobody to miss nothing. I feel bad when people miss stuff. But then at the same time, it'd be like, well, that's on you. You didn't subscribe.  So it ain't on me. I love you, but it ain't my fault. But anyway, first question came from Maurice, who's been a patron for 22 days. I appreciate it Maurice. Said him, I ain't graven, first time writing. Love your work. So please keep it up. I appreciate it Maurice. Thank you. Do you agree that the situation of Ravens and Lamar are in right now is a difficult one? Well, yeah, certainly, but continuing. He said, because on the one hand, the Ravens and Lamar want that big body wide out that can change your offense. No offense to Rashad, but counting on durability can come with a hefty price. See last season. Now first, we'll go piece by piece with this. Ravens and Lamar want that big body wide out that can change your offense. Do the Ravens? Do they want it? I don't know. I don't, it don't really seem like it, but I don't, we don't know. We don't know. Based off of how they've operated over the years, I would say no because it seemed like they just simply don't know how to operate when it comes to a big receiver. They don't know what to do with them. You remember Darren Waller? He was a, he was a receiver before he was a tight end. Ravens, they know what to do. They, whoa, six, five, what do we do with this? But they changed him to tight end. And that elevated his career in the long run. Miles Boykin, they didn't know what to do with him. Six, five, wide receiver, what do we do with this? And I just think about guys over the years, like Clarence Moore, guys that they drafted. But as far as guys that they brought in, I remember they brought in TJ Huchman's item. He was a no small receiver. What was he like, six, three, six, two, six, three, oh, maybe six, four, I don't remember. But anyway, I don't know if that's what Ravens are looking for. And with Lamar, we don't know either. I remember there had been times in the past where he sort of flirted on social media with DK Metcalf when he was going through his thing with the Seahawks, but they of course re-signed them. So I don't know. I don't know. We don't know what Lamar was. Maybe when he does his interview, maybe he can let us know. And anyway, and then he said no offense to Rashad but counting on durability can come with a hefty price, see last season. And yeah, I know the Ravens, they put all their chips in with Rashad Bateman last year. And I didn't think it was a good idea. We said it before the season started. And it just didn't end up working out. And we love Rashad Bateman. I don't think he's gonna be really nice but it just didn't work out. So hopefully it will this season. Cause again, with two of the biggest Ravens, two of the most impactful Ravens players, Lamar Jackson, Rashad Bateman, both past two years have dealt with injuries, have missed about like five games each year the past two years, not good. But both of those players in college throughout their collegiate career, no injury problems, no injury issues, they come to the Ravens and it's like, ho ho ho, what happened to my body? So hopefully with some changes that are made, both of those players can remain healthy. And as far as Lamar, whether that's with the Ravens or his next team, we'll see. And with Rashad Bateman, gotta say the same thing too, whether it's with the Ravens or his next team, we'll see. Cause when he called out Eric D'Costa in them and just spoke on that whole thing. Oof, you know they saw that. We all saw it. So they saw it too. Anyway, continuing, he said, but on the other hand, you gotta make investments to get one. So is it realistic that Lamar wants to see if the Ravens really invest before signing that contract? And if so, should the Ravens risk the investment to let's say comfort Lamar? Would love your opinion on this. Best from Germany. Oh, from Germany, I appreciate that Maurice. All right, so, is it realistic that Lamar wants to see if the Ravens really invest before signing that contract? That would be something because right now, like he could be, he could be. You know what, that's funny. That's something that we had talked about throughout last off season. And then going into this off season too, that it's deeper than money. Obviously money is the biggest thing. And I mean, if they cut the check big enough, then Lamar could be like, hey, thank you for cutting the check. Appreciate it. Y'all wanna invest? Cool, if not, hey, we still keep doing what we're doing. At least I'm getting compensated for it now. So I think that is first and foremost the biggest thing. I think he just wants his compensation and he wants a lot of his compensation upfront, like guarantee, like straight up. Not like, oh, most likely guarantee but no guaranteed straight up. That's what it seems to be. And then not even a fully guaranteed but just a lot guaranteed straight up from jump. But we'll see how that goes. But as far as the investments, I would like to think that, but and I mean, cause I would like to see that. I've been wanting to see that for a long time, especially at the wide receiver position. But I think it definitely should have been something that they risked already, even though I don't really think it would be a risk because you've already seen what Lamar can do without solid investments at the receiver position. Cause again, they spent the draft capital there, as we know, they spent a lot of draft capital there, but it's quality over quantity. Appreciate the tries, appreciate the attempts, but you have a track record. Ravens know their track record and I appreciate them still trying to change their track record and they've been getting a little better. Cause again, with Hollywood, that track record was changing, Shaw Bateman is changing, Devin Duvenay, not really cause they, again, that's somebody else and he's not over six. I mean, no, he's not six, four, six, five. He's a shorter receiver, but it's like they still don't know how to consistently use him or see if with a new offense that changes. But I think this should have been something that should have been done, but it could Lamar be waiting on that before signing? No, I think it's definitely more so about the money, about the financial investment. And not necessarily the personnel investment, even though I'm sure that Lamar would love if they invested personnel-wise a lot more into the wire receiver position too. And I would never expect him to come out and say it, like, he ain't gonna, he ain't gonna, he don't throw nobody under the bus.  But besides that, he don't be throwing nobody under the bus. So I wouldn't expect him to come out and say, like, man, Ravens, get some more receivers, at least not publicly, probably maybe, hey, who knows how the conversations are with him and Eric DeCosta, who knows? Only they know, because again, they've been keeping this thing under wraps for the longest. We've been hearing rumors and stuff, but nothing concrete. We've been hearing reports and stuff, nothing concrete. And it's so much that we just don't know. And again, it's funny that the most recent update on any contract that we hear about is something that apparently was offered last season. I mean, at the beginning of this past season, that was in September. We are in the end of March, and we were all getting up in arms about something that happened this past September. That's the information that we found out. That's how funny this whole thing is. But yeah, man, I don't think the holdup is an investment in personnel, but I think it's more so just investment with that bread. Let's get into this episode of Questions From Subs.  You see my boy, he like, out of made it. Out of made it. Well, that's my homie, ain't that right in gravy? Right in gravy. So, team, keep it clean. Welcome to another episode of Questions From Subs. Seriously, you can ask any question you want to when we answer it in a video just like this. If you wanna be part of it, you can send an email to teamkeepitclean at gmail.com.  You can send it directly on Patreon. And speaking of the team, keep it clean patrons, which I appreciate y'all especially given the situation. Next question came from a patron, my guy, Bill. He's been a patron for 22 days, so appreciate it, Bill. He said, good afternoon, engraving. Hey, hope all is well with you and the fam. My question is this, why are the Ravens not working on getting a veteran Y receiver in? I hear people say it's because of Lamar. I don't agree with that though. No matter who the QB is going to be, they still need to address the wide receiver position, not just in a draft. They can still rework some contracts to get both done. I agree. I agree with you, spot on. Now, we don't know what they're working on as far as wide receiver. Yeah, they did bring in Nelson Aguilar for a visit and he could be a solid complimentary receiver, obviously not the guy. But we just don't know. We don't know. We've been seeing different receivers come out of free agencies, some get traded like Elijah Moore. He got traded yesterday. McCollough Harman got signed. Alan Lazard, Juju Smith-Schuster, the list goes on. I can't think of everybody off the top of my head right now. But this receipt, oh, Jacoby Myers, that's another one. The receiver market, it's been decent. It's been going.  But this year has been a lot more cool. But the Ravens just, they ain't been making no moves. And I mean, they ain't been making any moves for anything. But I think it's one of those things like we won't truly know till we truly know. We won't know till it's obviously till it's official. Maybe we might have a visit. We might hear, we've heard reports of them being interested in Odell Beckham Jr. But it's one of the things we won't know till we know. So we just got to wait. We got to wait it out. And hope that they truly make an investment there. Because you're spot on. You are 1,000% right, no matter who the quarterback is. Whether it's Lamar Jackson, Tyler Huntley, Anthony Brown, Stesson Bennett, whoever. Well, the quarterback by the V-Band. Hey, they gonna need some people to throw too. Our next question came from my guy, Anthony. He said, LJ Exclusive Interview. He said, what's up in Raven? Hope everything's good. Quick, simple question. What do you think or hope Lamar speaks on in his exclusive interview? God bless and take care. I appreciate it. And also from my guy, Jay Fire. He said, hey, Raven, it's your boy Jay Fire. Hope you and the family are doing well. Have you seen the news about Lamar Jackson releasing an interview of himself? He said, there's a YouTube and Instagram video. You can check out. What do you think about this? And also, do you think Lamar has played his last down for the Ravens already? Thanks, man. And stay blessed. Appreciate it. So Lamar Jackson in this interview. Topic of conversation. And we'll see what it's about. We'll see what he says. I do think that he will say some significant stuff. I don't think it's just gonna be general basic questions, anything like that. Because when you think about it, Lamar doesn't obviously doesn't do much press. Lamar doesn't do much talking. I mean, he'll come on Twitter and say some stuff real quick here and there, but he don't do much of that. He don't do much talking. So when he does talk, like I would expect him to say something significant, especially if he's hyping this thing up, especially if he's been promoting this thing like he did. So he, and he knows people know about it now. So it was like, okay. So he's setting everybody up for something. So I definitely expect him to say something significant in regards to the contract, in regards to something. It has to be something significant. By the way, this thing is just being pushed to everybody. Well, I mean, he only pushed it that one day. But I mean, he does cause a lot of, he garners a lot of attention from everybody and he knows that.  So stay tuned. Subscribe to my YouTube channel. Stay tuned. So whenever it does drop, we're gonna be watching. Yeah, I mean, y'all already know we're gonna watch it, check it out. I mean, he should have just did it with us. Like we both down here in South Florida, LaBorca that easily came through. Man, what? That would have been so easy, man. But it's okay. Next time, man. Next time. But we looking forward to it, to see whatever it is that he got to say about, whatever he got something to say it about. Next question came from Mary Ann. She said, I am 81 years old. Was a Baltimore Colts fan. And since they have been our team, a Ravens fan. I did love Lamar, but what is happening today is making me a little ill. So many of us are having it hard buying groceries and the things we need, not just one. And seeing Lamar haggling over hundreds of millions of dollars just amazes me. And I have lost respect for him and now hope he does move on. If we pay him his guaranteed money, can we afford any other players? Ooh. All right, well, Mary, coming through strong. And yes, to answer that second question, yes, they can definitely afford to pay other players as well.  You can still make moves. You just gotta move different. You gotta be a little more creative than you normally would be, depending on how much money you allocate to that player every year and how much of it is guaranteed to that player every year. Now, just to back up, so many of us are having it hard buying groceries and the things we need, that's true. Because it's tough out here. It really is tough. And seeing Lamar haggling over hundreds of millions of dollars just amazes me. And you've lost respect for him. Now, I think that's unfortunate. With football, with NFL, it is a billion dollar business. And they obviously make a whole lot of money. They make a whole lot of money to be public punching bags. They make a whole lot of money for our entertainment. They make a whole lot of money, literally putting their bodies on the line every Sunday or Monday or Thursday or in some cases, Wednesdays, because you remember that COVID game on that Wednesday, it's still is in Ravens at like 3 p.m. So anyway, so they are in a different tax bracket than the most of us. It's like the same thing, but just on a different level. Like if somebody was having issues at their job and they wanted to raise, but hey, their job only wanted to give them this amount, but they felt like they deserve this amount. And they're going back and forth. It's the same thing, but just in a different setting and in a different tax bracket. So yeah, I get what you're saying. I don't agree with the losing respect. I think that part obviously definitely comes from, I mean, just being a frustrated fan at the whole thing. And I get it that it's tough because it can be tough to relate to the players on the financial level because we can't relate to the players on a financial level, even practice squad player, they make a lot of money too. So I get that and I respect what you're saying, but it's just different. It's different because again, they in a completely different tax bracket. Their jobs, they make a lot more money than a lot of us, than most of us. And again, it's just 1%. It's 1% of people that make it to the NFL. They could be playing football their whole lives. They could have the best trainers, best practice. Could be one of the best on their team, Little League in high school, all that stuff in college, but it's not a guarantee that you're only 1% of people make it. So it's obviously not a very saturated field of the NFL, but they make the big bucks. I know I can't change your opinion on how you feel about LeMau, maybe just the NFL in general, but I guess I can just give mine. And like I said, it's different. It's a lot of the same things. That's why whenever, especially talking about the business side of football, whenever we speak about that, I try to relate in experiences that I've been through when it comes to business, when it comes to having worked in different fields and whatnot and having gone through some different things in the business world, in the working world. And I try to put myself in their shoes.  But that's how I try to get it. So I think if we did that, again, like I said, obviously we can't relate to the tax bracket that they're in, but that's what helps me. So maybe if you looked at it that way, it may help you get that respect back. But just remember at the end of the day, it's business and it's not personal at all. Let's keep them. Next question came from my guy, David. He said, ain't great man. Hold by the time you read this, you're no longer a freelancer. I was hoping. We'll see, man. YouTube came to afford to lose such a positive presence in a great show. I appreciate it, David. I know there's plenty of reasons while LeMau should, could and probably will want to get out of Baltimore, but I'm really hoping to keep them. He's the best QB in the league. I repeat that for the Bengals and Chiefs fans, the Baltimore Ravens have the best QB in the league. He only had a half healthy number one, why receive it during his MVP year, and Greg Roman decided that he wasn't getting enough credit for LeMau's success. So he made a predictable and losing offense. Even though we won a lot with that offense, or it wasn't because of the scheme, it was because LeMau playing hero ball and Andrews dragging 10 grown men on his back for first downs and touchdowns. Well, no, let's not discredit Greg Roman there. He obviously has had his problems and issues and whatnot, but he obviously made his mark. He made his mark with the Baltimore Ravens, not just this season, but in other seasons too. Now we wish there would have been more growth and more consistency, better situation of play calling and whatnot, but Greg Roman definitely was not all bad. And with LeMau, LeMau had his issues too. He was not perfect. He obviously did a lot. Did a whole lot, obviously. But yeah, we ain't got to drag Greg Roman down. But anyway, he said, we absolutely need to hit our free agency and the draft, but I don't have much confidence in EDC being able to do so. I am glad we saw the report call for the Raven staff. That was an eye opener. The Ravens always brag about having a high bar for health, but don't have the staff to keep folks healthy. Don't make sense.  Anyway, I don't know the future, but I am hoping LeMau signs an offer sheet and we meet or beat it and the tensions between him and the team get resolved. Yeah, I'm sure money could make all the problems go away. It could make all them problems go away.  They're like, oh yeah, you do deserve a raise, but we only want to give you this much. No, I deserve that much.  They all got raises too. We in the same position and I do just as much. If not as more than them. So how come I ain't getting a raise like them? Y'all go back and forth, back and forth.  Being manager like, hey, come here, come to my office. We got to talk. You know what? You do deserve it and we're going to give it to you. Here, here's the offer letter. Go ahead and sign so we can make this thing official. Oh, I ain't mad no more. I'm getting my bread. So it could be the same thing with LeMau. We'll see. Anyway, he said, I got a feeling that the Ravens may be playing checkers and the league is playing chess. Ain't it the other way around when it's good? What did they say? Chess not checkers or? Yeah, anyway. Oh, but he said a reverse. Anyway, he said they know they have a generational talent quarterback that could and probably would have brought multiple rings to the franchise.  They know they can and will change in less than two years. Oof. Oh yeah, you know how them contracts go. They'll say, oh, it'll be this much for this amount of years. Then they come back a couple of years and they rework it. They redo it. They reconstruct it. You know how it goes. It happens all the time. He said, again, I will say we have the best QB in the league and I hope we keep them. If we do, we'll see three plus rings in the next five to seven years. If not, we'll become the Jags of the AFC North. Hold up now. Jags just won at the Villain. And Jags, they won a playoff game too. Trevor Lawrence went out there through four interceptions then he came back it through four touchdowns. So hold up now. Jags, they are some right now. So now they'll be like the Jags right now. It's not a diss. It's not a diss. So, but anyway, I hope you're doing well. God bless. And like I hope Lamar isn't. I'm out. That was a fun question. Next question came from my guy, Cedere. And he said, PQ for player or pick. Will Lamar being tagged and the Ravens being on the hook until something is done? Free agency is going to be quiet in Baltimore. From my perspective, being quiet means being sneaky. So what's the sneak move? Ravens still have a wild card in their hand and that card is a queen. Oh, I see, I like how you did that with the word player and the cards and I like that. EDC was noncommitted on picking up Patrick Queen's fifth year option and with him removing Ravens from his social media, a trade is coming. Honestly, I think the deal's already done but won't happen until draft night like last year. More than likely it'll be four picks since the Ravens only have five. But I wonder if there are any players worthy of compensation for Patrick Queen for example, wide receiver or cornerback. P.S., shout out to you for not closing shop. Oh, no, no, we trying to keep this thing moving, man. And he said he forgot to include that Kyle Hamilton and Malik Harrison can fill in the loss for Patrick Queen. Ravens have also had luck with undrafted free agents in the past, Christian Welch and Moon. And don't forget about Ross, I forget his name now. What was the information with John Ross? With Josh Ross, I think it's John Ross. I'm sorry. Maybe it's Josh Ross, I don't remember right now. But anyway, so yeah, but anyway, with Patrick Queen, yeah, I think so. I think he will be traded. They haven't picked up his fifth year option. They haven't till May to do so. And Eric DeCasso was non-committal on it. Like even with Hollywood, he was like, oh yeah, yeah, we anticipate picking up his fifth year option. Traded with Patrick Queen, they're like, oh, what did he say when he didn't say anything like that when it came to Patrick Queen? I forgot exactly what he said, but he was not, like he was like, well, I guess he was like half-committal. I have committed whatever, but Patrick Queen, no. There was no commitment at all. I think he said something like, oh, we haven't talked about it. We gotta go over to something like that. I forgot what it was. So I think it'll be traded. I do. I would love to see him play out this whole contract, but I don't see Eric DeCasso signing Roquon Smith and Patrick Queen. So I think Queen will get traded. Cause again, Eric DeCasso, most times, he does stuff early rather than late. So I think Patrick Queen will end up being shipped out. Where? No clue for what? Before I was saying the second round pick. So yeah, maybe like a second or a couple of thirds. I think that's what he would go for. And the last two questions on this episode came from my guy, Kevin. He said, why Lamar has no offers yet? What's good engraving? Hope you in the fam, stay blessed. I appreciate that, man. Every news channel I've seen are missing the fact that a team needs to wait until after the draft to make an offer on Lamar Jackson. It's a no-brainer. Get a draft pick that can help you this season. Set up your cap for this season. Try to sign Lamar with 24 and 2025 first round picks. They'll be lower picks and won't tie up your ability to draft in 2023. It makes all the sense in the world, huh? Okay, I see what you're saying. But still, if you were to bring in Lamar now you're just losing one pick from this year. Like you just lose your 2023 first round though.  You still would be committing the money to him. So I mean, I see what you're saying but at the same time I don't. Cause I mean, all this same stuff has to happen. If it don't happen this year, if you wait till after the draft then it's just gonna happen next year. So I think it's the same thing either way. But he also said Ravens are a Super Bowl team with Lamar. And Raven heard you say the other day that the Ravens are not a Super Bowl ready team. I disagree. Yeah, I just, nah, I don't think they are. I know Lamar, obviously he didn't finish the last two seasons. So we never fully got to completely see the potential of this Ravens team in the playoffs both years. And that could have changed, but I just feel like for what they have done and really what they haven't done at the receiver position, I feel like it would end up biting them in the butt. I really do. And as far as the offense as well, the offense just being very predictable with being just lackluster. Them not using, even for the guys that they do have them just not playing them to their strengths. That's been a problem for a long time. That's why I just didn't see them as a Super Bowl team. I would obviously hope that they would get there. Surprised me, but anyway. So he said, I disagree. First, if you look at that defense and the amount of great to very good players playing in their second year and the defense is scary. Oh, no, no, the defense. Yeah, I think the defense could be Super Bowl ready. I think they could be. He said, Roquan, Markets, Williams, Hamilton, a job both Jones and other players coming back with the year. More Humphrey, Queen, maybe. Washington, Pierce, Madda, BK, Bowser. Yeah, defense, oh yeah. Defense got it. I ain't worried about the defense. That ain't my issue. Well, actually, sometimes there was some issues, but no, defense should be straight. I said, the Ravens are not doing a lot of free agency right now because they don't need a lot. They need a great rookie wide receiver and a number one wide receiver like Hopkins and their Super Super Bowl ready. If they get Lamar back with a new offensive coordinator, they'll be ready. See, with that, I could see it. That, I could see it. If they get a true number one guy and you pair him with Rashad Bateman and you draft a good rookie receiver too, oh yeah, yeah, yeah. And you still got Duvenay finales. You still got Pro-Shane finales. Still got Tyler Wallace finales. You could bring back the Marcus Robinson if you want to. Like, yeah, if they win it like, and they kept Lamar. Cause you still got Mark Andrews too. Offensive line, you just gotta get a new left guard who gonna play left guard, we'll see. So yeah, you could make some stuff happen. You really can. And that would really change a lot of my outlook on this team. I would, I have to see the offense too. I'll have to see how that they run that offense. But I would be a lot more optimistic if they would win about it like that. But will they? This feels like a dream, ain't no jazz what I mean. You see my boy, he like gotta made it, gotta made it, boy he's a fan and he like the Ravens, like the Ravens. Whoever got the flag, then I'm with y'all.  I'm a fanatic, you see we got the magic. And you and my boys are savage and no been challenging matters. Let's go. Making rage quit, exit out the door. Exit out the door. Use this favorite team with a bottom wall.
