    There was an interesting exchange at the end of today's scope...Howard was speaking with, i think, someone on the training staff, possibly Biles, but it seems like they were telling Dwight about what someone else said or did and Dwight replied by saying he'd take care of it and talk to him...that he (dwight) just lost his brother, but he was still here anyway because he has to put in the work.

    Anyone hear who they were talking about. I don't really want to go through the whole thing again just for that lol..

    They also talked about increasing his workload a bit...looks like he's still improving, no setbacks. Did some running today, core work, soft tissue work, and working on his jumping form.

    I just downloaded it. I'm listening to it but it's really hard to make out what the other guy is saying. It sounds like:


    Guy: Between you and me.. XXXX you're gonna be talking to.. Martinez texted me today that he wasn't feeling too well XXXXXXXX. So I've been thinking... i'll ask them what they need. Get your work in. By practice today you gotta be ready to go.

    Dwight: "I got you. I'ma talk to him. Don't worry bout it".

    Guy: "...XXX couldn't go Friday XXXXX?"

    Dwight: "Say no more. I got him."

    Guy: "I would XXXXX but I got XXXX"

    Dwight: "Shoot, it don't matter. My brother just died I'm supposed to be at home hurting. But I can't do that especially when it's time to work. It's time to work. We gotta work. That other stuff... we gotta leave it outta the building.

    Guy: "We need to hear it from him."

    Dwight: "I got you. I'ma talk to him".













    That's all I got. The "XXX" is stuff that I couldn't make out. And some of the text that I typed is probably wrong too. It is so hard to hear because the voice is so low combined with the loud music playing.


    I have no idea who he is talking about or if it's even a player or what.

    Yeah, I can't really make out what the other guy said. Dwight's side is easy to hear, that's exactly what i heard, too. I'm not sure why a staff member would treat Dwight like he's got control over another staff member, so that's why i'm assuming it's a player. I have no clue who Martinez is...doesn't sound familiar.


    "Between you and me" are not words you want to start with, around Dwight in the morning..lol

    I don't know if he actually said Martinez... that's just what it sounded like to me.

    He could have said something else.

    Dekker: "Everyone keeps saying i'm the next Chandler Parsons. Just because I'm white it doesn't mean..."

    You could tell the comparison is getting to him.


    Dwight got in trouble today.....he was getting ready to shut off the feed and start his work out, but someone was on his machine, so he gave them 10 more minutes and went back out the locker room...a staff member saw him and told him to stop Periscoping and start his workout. Dwight was trying to explain himself as he shut off the feed. LOL...

    You can fast forward and rewind now, at least on mobile, havent checked desktop version.


    JB asked Dwight if he could talk to him for 2.3 minutes..not sure what that was about, but he's precise though lol..

    Someone, off camera, asked Dwight about what they were going to do about the team, I guess referring to team's struggles..and Dwight just said stay positive, etc...Not sure what the other guy said, hopefully someone else caught it. JB came in a little later and said whats up to KJ and Harrell, so I guess it was one of them. My guess is KJ.
