neil: kyle harrington says it is a very big mistake. both former division 1 players themselves. and i'm sure they got money on the side, whatever they were doing those days. that was then, this is now. you look at this and hear what's happening, what do you think? >> well, here's the thing, i don't know about the pay to play situation because there's a lot of different levels in the complications on how this works. what do you believe in, however, is that the ncaa should give athletes a stipend, something maybe once a week or once a month to give them extra cash so the athletes can pay for the basic necessities. as a former athlete, it's hard to get summer jobs when you're working all of these things, all of the practices you have, so the problem started many years ago when the booster programs were hiring these athletes and paying them an absurd amount of money and the ncaa went way too far the other way and as a result it's hard for athletes to make money. give them a stipend, that's what i think. neil: what do you think, kyle? >> listen, you can't give these athletes money in

let's add kyle harrington joining me now. good to see you. sent millions of chickens to russia.port of nuts, soybeans, fish. so, the question is how is this -- really hit the u.s. food industry? >> you hear 370 million of po t poultry going from u.s. to russiain russia, but on the whole, we sent about $3.1 billion in exports. the poultry is a little affected there because it represents a little over 25% in the food and agriculture space. modern day russia is is more dependent on exports. so, for example, ur euro zone last year, about $16 million worth of goods from europe to russia and again, 1.3 from us. >> so then you're seeing there's going to be more of geopolitical risk involved. >> i think so. where there's a risk is first and foremost, i'm not sure the russian economy can survive. years worth of sanctions. i'm not certain that that can be sustainable unless russia goes to monetary stimulus like we've done here in the u.s. and so, i think the people that suffer the most are actually the russian citizens with respect to these overa overall sanctions, not the u.s. >> because
