i've never heard of it. >> the great thing about these two fibers, you can serve them by themselves, you can ask fruits and vegetables to them as well. you won't be hungry ten minutes or an hour later so you don't get that rebound, and they're loaded with all kinds of bonus nutrients. so think about quinoa and tibouleh during the parties or between the parties. >> you learn something new all the time. sometimes a pretty good appetite suppressant are great for acidic things. >> we have grapefruit in our own yard here in northern california. technically, it's in the neighbor's yard, but the grapefruit hangs over. >> then it's yours. >> grapefruits are loaded with water, so naturally they're going to fill you up. again, we mention lots of fiber and lots of good nutrition that goes with it. here's the important part of grapefutu grapefruit. it's loaded with sole ubl fiber which is good for your intestines as well, and it also lowers the bad kind of ldl fiber. it will help you get through the cold season, and before you're tem tempted to add sugar, pick a variety of grapefruit like the texas red. it tastes naturally sweet and you won't have to deal with the extra calories. >> i had no idea grapefruit was fiber filled. >> the soluble fiber, the good stuff. >> thank you very much, and i love the winter holiday sweater you got going there. >> we're drready for winter. he has stretched himself as an actor over the years playing a gay surgeon and a politician. he tells me how "grey's" role isaiah washington played dr. preston burke on the hit tv show "grey's anatomy." in the four years since the controversial departure from the show, he starred in tv's "law and order." he also wrote "a man from another land." in his book he writes it didn't take long to realize the impact the doctor had on his character. he was riding high in his career. >> before you get knocked off that horse and you were at the pinnacle of your acting career success, and you were able to say, you know, these have been some of my favorite bodies of work, what were they before "grey's anatomy"? >> it seemed like products i would choose like love jones, which was ten years before its time. i did it intentionally because i wanted people to think. ironically, this character's name was george washington. so that was my favorite film. and "clockers." any of my psych films, but "dancing in september" was one where i got to play at the height of my intellect, so to speak. >> so when "grey's anatomy" came calling, no one could predict it would be the kind of success that it was. >> i did. >> you did? >> i was the one who suggested calling it ""grey's anatomgr "g" they changed it to another name, and i said it's going to be popular as "grey's anatomy." >> you were loving dr. burke. you have become him, he has become you. what was the most gratifying thing about this role? >> actually understanding the glory of heart, of the human heart. and actually participating in several open heart surgeries. i didn't want to participate in one on a child because i had children, and i just couldn't bear it. >> so what came with this role was greater than, here's an acting opportunity, a regular gig every day, the popularity grows, the salary grows. there became a personal responsibility. >> yeah. >> -- that you embraced as being this dr. burke of "grey's anatomy." >> yeah. >> explain that to me. >> i really started believing that i could change the world with this guy. i never knew the power of isaiah washington. we were working a lot, and i didn't notice the power that existed after this crisis. i thought nobody cared about what i did or thought because i was so busy doing what i was doing. >> it took a physical and emotional toll. >> yes. >> you had to be totally invest nd this role working how many hours a day?

>> i don't think so, but they can't ratify it until they reform the union. they recertify the union on december 14, so there are a lot of legal hoops that need to be overcome before there is a collective bargaining. >> so a lot? >> a lot. >> so nobody should celebrate december 25, possibly the start of the regular season. >> they say basketball players are the most pessimistic people, so maybe my opinion isn't the one to rely on, but there's two lawsuits. they placed one in minnesota, and they have to withdraw that. they filed a lawsuit in new york, they have to withdraw that lawsuit. i think one of the bargaining chips that allowed this to happen is that the players do it to gain $6 billion in damages in a lawsuit. but you've got to reform the union. the owners, 15 of 29, have to ratify the agreement. now, there is an economic committee within the owners that have to approve it and recommend it to the board. that has to be done. >> is it your contention that some of the players you represent, that some of the players are saying they had to give up the most in this in order to even reach this tentative deal, that they're losing millions. >> the collective bargaining agreement the players receive, they're guaranteed 57% of the revenues. that's $4 billion. now it's 50/50. so i don't know what the math is, but i think 7% of $4 billion is a significant number. the other thing is they did not mess so much where the cap or restrictive agencies, but what they did is they used the luxury tax as a restriction from a player like kevin durant who went from a small market in oklahoma to a large market in new york. i don't think what people understood, it was a three-pronged fight here. it was the owner of small markets versus the owners of large markets and then the players. >> so how does it either change the game, change the structure of the nba or change the contracts from this day forward? >> i don't think right now you're going to know until these things like luxury taxes start to really be applied and be in place. if they become very restricted, it's going to do a couple of things. it's going to have a restriction on the players' salaries, which is what they don't want to have, and it's going to have a restriction on the movement of the players' free agencies. i think it's kind of wait ask s -- wait and see, but the problem is you have to have players and owners voting on that agreement before you really know how it's going to play out. >> so the players are saying, wait, this is over a lot of money when a lot of the players and agents are making a lot of money, so a lot of fans are more disappointed that it disrupted the regular season and a lot of them feel these are spoiled kids fighting over their territory. do i have that right? >> the fans have the right because the fans make the game. but i think it's relative, because the players -- i heard michael jordan at his hall of fame induction say that though the front office put together a good team, the players won the championship. these players are the highlights. they're the entertainment. the owners take an economic risk in putting the team together. the players take a risk as well. and so one of the things of guaranteed contracts and economic risks, it's a real relative kind of situation. it's like saying secretariat was a good horse, so why did he get a chance to do all the things he did? it's relative. it's not a swayed back horse, it's relative. they played this game all their lives and they're entitled to be compensated for it. ive friends on both sides, owners and players, but i think i probably land with the players a little bit more. >> we'll see if we, indeed, are going to see that triple header on christmas day. daniel meacham, good to see you. >> good to see you. thank you. here's a recipe for disaster. what would be your reaction if you walked into your living room and saw this?
