russ is coming up next with nfl headaches. i'll tell you all about that ernie: russ is here. super bowl is over, but some of the ugly side of football is russ: something's got to be done. we always say, you know, football -- all sports is a micro chasm of society. but the nfl just gets finished with the glamour event, super bowl 50, and now they've got to deal with this ugly stuff. when i say ugly stuff, mccoy, a star running back in the nfl with the bills, he played six years for the philadelphia eagles. they're talking about issuing arrest warrants for him and three other suspects who were involved with two off-duty police officers in philadelphia. ernie: the circumstances are strange, right? russ: in the wee hours of sunday morning, about 2:45, and the argument -- apparently one of the officers or both of them was kicked, stomped and punched while on the ground. and you talk about a situation from what i read that it was over ownership of a champagne ernie: unbelievable. russ: it's off the charts. ernie: no racial overtones connected to this? russ: since you ask that, both

russ: i don't know. something is going to happen. first time that commissioner manfried is going to come down. there's a couple of different people. yankee fans are concerned about this one. what people know is is the suspension going to start in spring training? if it does, does that mean he has to leave the training facility? it could set things back. it will be interesting to see. he's going to get games. how long, i have no idea. ernie: tigers woods, back problems, poor guy, got a lot going on. russ: what it sounds like, he's taking a step backwards. from what i was reading and hearing, he can't sit straight in a car. he has to be reclining. ernie: never be the same? russ: you know, people were wondering if it's psychological. it's physical. if anybody has ever had a bad back and chronic injuries, that's a situation. for a guy who's a golfer with a back situation, i don't think wins again or plays again, i don't know. because of this situation, i think we're getting closer to the end. ernie: okay. th

russ: good point. because of the large markets and smaller markets, the league is proposing that 50 percent of the money gotten from the ads goes to the teams. the other 50 percent goes into the revenue-sharing pot, which the players are part of. it works out. ernie: you could see a little possibility of conflict there. you've got advertising. it could be -- russ: guys are advertising mercedes. cadillac. it's a problem. it could pose a potential problem. you know what? they're all going to work through it because it means money for the ownership. it means money for the players. as they say, it's always about the money. ernie: always about the money. let's talk about something else, breaking news involving a mets pitcher. bad news. russ: i have to say this. there's only one way to say it. henry mejia formerly of the mets gets the knucklehead of the year award. this is the third time -- it's for failing the drug situation, but for performance-enhancing drugs. it's not like an addiction. it's performance-

russ: we don't know. unfortunately, a lot of these guys, it's easy for them to be taken advantage of. listen, i've got to tell you, if i'm a cuban player and i'm coming from nothing, listen, i'm going to pay somebody. that's not the problem. the problem is who is taking advantage? who is on the end of receiving the pay? ernie: can major league baseball did anything? cuban players are not good. they're tremendous players. listen, we have one who's a star of the mets. listen, he's making $25 million a year. it wasn't that way in cuba. i understand what these guys families. but you can't have people taking advantage of them and agents have to be sanctioned by major league baseball. a lot has to be investigated. ernie: a lawsuit could raise the awareness level of what's going on. russ: with spring training going on, this is a horrible, horrible story. ernie: russ, have a great weekend. what do you do when your shoes wear out? do you fix them or toss them out? ernie: you're ans your daughter wants to stay orga

russ: that's what makes it interesting. you know you know -- they're friendly but there's professional pride at stake. he's been the best for a long time. let's understand something else. lebron james is having a pretty good year, averaging just under 25 points a game. he has the cavaliers -- ernie: nothing shabby about that. russ: the thing is curry is averaging almost 31 a game and he's got the warriors on a record-setting pace of 53 and 5 in the west. it means we have to root for when the nba finals come around and east meets west, we want the then it's lebron and stephen going head to head. right now there's talk of will curry be the first ever unanimous mvp. ernie: that would be a first. russ: only two guys were close. one was lebron and shaquille o'neal. ernie: thank you so much. okay. here we go again. what happens when you get lost? do you ask for directions? your answers are coming up after this break. what do you do? hey, what are you doing? getting the coats. for a half hour? bob just got time warner cable. he's
