Players are secretly assigned unique roles with the good guys trying to expose the bad guys and the bad guys doing everything they can to stay hidden. Each game unfolds under alternating day and night phases with roles like the cool chick, the shy guy, the gambler, el presidente, the mentalist, the planner, the funny guy, and more. Every round is unpredictable, chaotic, and ridiculously fun. Who's the Bad Guy is great for parties, pre games, family gatherings, or groups who just love deception based games.

• 2:49Speaker 00

  Welcome to Pardon My Take presented by DraftKings. The crown is yours. Today is Wednesday, September 23rd. And boys, we had Jameis Winston on Monday Night Football, and it didn't look great.

• 3:04Speaker 02

  I mean, Jameis hasn't got any reps.

• 3:06Speaker 00

  He needs a week with the ones.

• 3:07Speaker 02

  Jameis is a reps guy. He's been, you know what? I give Jameis a PFT ratings of an A+

• 3:14Speaker 00

  Okay.

• 3:14Speaker 02

  Because his assignment going into this game, you have to, you have to understand a lot of people that just watch these games on TV. They don't know what the assignments are for each, each guy out there.

• 3:22Speaker 00

  Yep, that's true.

• 3:23Speaker 02

  Jameis's assignment going into this game, be the best backup you can be.

• 3:27Speaker 00

  Yes.

• 3:27Speaker 02

  Gas up the boys on the sidelines.

• 3:29Speaker 00

  Yes.

• 3:29Speaker 02

  Jameis, A+, absolutely delivered. If you don't understand that that's what his job was, sadly, you're not a real film watcher.

• 3:36Speaker 00

  I agree. Give him one week with the ones. Next week, they're playing, I don't remember who they're playing. Oh, they're playing.

• 3:42Speaker 02

  Titans.

• 3:43Speaker 00

  Titans. Jameis is going to go off. I was just more sad, and we'll talk about the Rams, but when Jameis, it sucked that Jackson Dart got hurt. The Giants like had a torture watch on Monday Night Football where you have all the vibes as high as they could be after the Cowboys win, where Jackson Dart plays a legitimately very good game. Everything's working. Defense looks good. Cam Scataboo. And then you get into this game, Arvel Reese gets hurt, Jackson Dart gets hurt, Malik Neighbors hurts his shoulder, then comes back in. But it was, there was a moment there where you're like, what did Giants fans do to deserve this? Because it really, really sucked. And it sucks that Jackson Dart probably

• 4:23Speaker 00

  is going to miss some time. But the Giants, that was last year's Giants or the year before, the year before that. That's what we watched on Monday Night Football. And I, when, when Jackson Dart went out, I was like, oh, Jameis, like this is going to be, this game is about to get crazy and fun. Didn't go that way.

• 4:39Speaker 02

  I think it's fair to say they still need some help protecting the quarterback.

• 4:42Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 4:42Speaker 02

  That's still a big need for the Giants. I don't think that any amount of Harbaugh in the locker room can, can fix that overnight. I thought Jackson Dart leaving the game, trying to come back in, they had to steal his jersey.

• 4:53Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 4:54Speaker 02

  They had to, the people in the locker room, I don't know if it was the doctors, the equipment staff, some sort of coach actually had to take his jersey away. So he went and tried to get back into the game, which is great news if you're a Giants fan.

• 5:05Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 5:05Speaker 02

  I think he's like, I gotta get back out there with Cam. Cam wouldn't, Cam wouldn't fight his way out of this situation.

• 5:10Speaker 00

  Yeah. And the Rams, I, I kind of expected the bounce back and boy, did it look good, especially the Devante Adams part, because Puka not playing and Devante Adams being, he looked like, like Devante Adams of old. He looked like stretching the field, catching these deep bombs. Stafford looked comfortable. He did have like one Stafford throw where it was like, what are you doing, dude? There's, it was, two guys draped over Devante Adams. Like, fuck it, I'm just going to throw it up there. But, and I think Stafford, did Stafford become six all time in touchdowns last night? I believe so.

• 5:44Speaker 02

  Right, yeah.

• 5:45Speaker 00

  Yeah. Hall of Famer. He's going to be a Hall of Famer.

• 5:47Speaker 02

  Just an amazing.

• 5:48Speaker 00

  Shot a while ago.

• 5:48Speaker 02

  Amazing first half from Devante Adams, too. Just like lit everything up. And I, it looks like for a while, you know, they were, they were just kind of a red zone pairing, like Matt Stafford.

• 5:57Speaker 00

  Right.

• 5:57Speaker 02

  Adams. It was like, I'm just going to get inside the 10 yard line. You're automatic. You're my go to guy. And I wasn't sure that Devante Adams still had it in terms of like that all around receiver and deep threat. There were a few times last night, it's like the timing's there.

• 6:10Speaker 00

  Right.

• 6:10Speaker 02

  With him and Stafford. He was throwing the ball before he was open, trusting that he would get some separation. And it was, yeah, the, I think the Rams.

• 6:18Speaker 00

  They'd be just fine.

• 6:19Speaker 02

  Are maybe who we thought they were before the season. Credit to McVay, by the way, for saying like, sometimes your coach is a dumbass that doesn't understand how time works.

• 6:26Speaker 00

  Yes.

• 6:26Speaker 02

  And yes, I, I like hearing that because as a dumbass that also doesn't understand how time works, that doesn't also mean that we can't be great coaches.

• 6:34Speaker 00

  Right, right. Yeah. And you're right about the Devante Adams, like the, the touchdown merchant stuff last year. I mean, that's also when Puka's in there.

• 6:41Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 6:41Speaker 00

  Puka's stretching the field. But that was a scary sight for anyone who's in the NFC to see Devante Adams feel like, like that was a classic Devante Adams game. I know the Giants secondary is banged up.

• 6:52Speaker 02

  And I just trust McVay so much that even if Devante Adams was out for a while, too, he'd find one way to get one of his four white tight ends to be a down, downfield threat, too. Somehow, yeah, you, you end up seeing Parkinson running like a 4.340.

• 7:04Speaker 00

  Yeah, Terrence Ferguson scored last night. Did, what'd you guys think about this Rams jerseys?

• 7:08Speaker 02

  Gross, disgusting.

• 7:09Speaker 00

  I did not like them.

• 7:10Speaker 02

  I, I didn't mind it, but that's just because I grade Rams jerseys on a scale of, like, they get, they get a lot of leeway because they've got some ugly ones.

• 7:19Speaker 03

  They made the yellow worse.

• 7:20Speaker 00

  Yeah. I, so my first reaction was, these are disgusting. Then they started to grow on me. Then I saw Harrison Mivis in it, and it went the exact opposite way again, where I was like, oh, these are really, really bad. Cause Harrison Mivis, he's a big boy.

• 7:36Speaker 02

  It's not flattering.

• 7:37Speaker 00

  It's not flattering.

• 7:38Speaker 02

  If you're in really good shit, like a lot of things, if you're in really good shape, those jerseys look good on you.

• 7:42Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 7:43Speaker 02

  And if you're not, they kind of, it's kind of like a highlighter for BMI.

• 7:47Speaker 00

  Mm hmm.

• 7:47Speaker 02

  So the higher it is, it's like, it draws your eye to it.

• 7:50Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 7:50Speaker 02

  Like, if you see Devante Adams standing next to Harrison Mivis, you're looking at Harrison Mivis in those jerseys, and you don't want to be looking at him.

• 7:57Speaker 00

  No, no. Devante Adams looks cool. Harrison Mivis looks fat.

• 8:01Speaker 02

  Yeah, they're, they're kind of like, they're very Swedish coded.

• 8:04Speaker 00

  Yeah, they are.

• 8:05Speaker 02

  I feel like this is IKEA football.

• 8:06Speaker 00

  They also, yeah, it, it just doesn't feel like a real NFL team.

• 8:10Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 8:10Speaker 00

  It feels like a fake, like a NFL team you'd watch in a movie about the, about the NFL.

• 8:15Speaker 02

  About the league.

• 8:16Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 8:16Speaker 02

  With like, yeah, about, like, this is the Kurt Warner story.

• 8:19Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 8:20Speaker 02

  That's what we're watching right here.

• 8:21Speaker 00

  We're watching the Los Angeles bananas.

• 8:23Speaker 02

  Yeah. Oh, gross. Don't, don't put that idea out. Fuck you for putting that into the universe.

• 8:27Speaker 00

  For football?

• 8:28Speaker 02

  Fuck you.

• 8:29Speaker 00

  I don't know if that would work. I don't think, I don't think doing a backflip over the middle.

• 8:34Speaker 02

  If a fan, if a fan can get out there and make a tackle during a play, it counts.

• 8:37Speaker 00

  Yep, yep. Okay. So that was Monday Night Football.

• 8:41Speaker 02

  Also, I don't know what it is. Aaron Donald, his, so his return.

• 8:45Speaker 00

  Yep.

• 8:46Speaker 02

  He didn't have like.

• 8:47Speaker 00

  Max hates him.

• 8:47Speaker 02

  He didn't have a spectacular Aaron Donald game. Max was rooting so hard against him. Max, you, you admitted you were rooting against him.

• 8:53Speaker 00

  It was personal.

• 8:53Speaker 03

  I just don't want Aaron Donald to be as good as Aaron Donald used to be because that's bad for the Eagles.

• 8:58Speaker 00

  Okay.

• 8:59Speaker 03

  And I was also right.

• 9:01Speaker 00

  Then he didn't get a sack?

• 9:01Speaker 03

  Didn't get a sack.

• 9:02Speaker 02

  Yeah. He did get a tackle for loss.

• 9:04Speaker 03

  Not a sack.

• 9:05Speaker 00

  But it was a tackle for a loss.

• 9:06Speaker 02

  He looked.

• 9:07Speaker 00

  Which is another way to say a sack.

• 9:09Speaker 03

  That's incorrect.

• 9:10Speaker 00

  Well, you could.

• 9:11Speaker 03

  Just a separate.

• 9:11Speaker 00

  Well, no, but a sack is a tackle for a loss.

• 9:13Speaker 02

  It's just a random thing that we.

• 9:15Speaker 03

  But a tackle for a loss is not a sack.

• 9:17Speaker 02

  Right. We randomly say it's a sack because it's the quarterback.

• 9:19Speaker 00

  Oh, because the quarterback, it's now a sack. But it really is, the, the actual definition of it is like, it is a tackle for a loss.

• 9:26Speaker 03

  Here's the thing.

• 9:27Speaker 02

  You think it's more, wait, do you think it's more valuable for him to tackle?

• 9:30Speaker 03

  Here's the thing, we just weren't talking about tackle for a loss.

• 9:33Speaker 00

  Would you rather?

• 9:33Speaker 03

  We were talking about sacks.

• 9:35Speaker 00

  Would you rather have him tackle for a gain?

• 9:36Speaker 03

  This is also a fight that the two of us are, that the three of us are having, that the listener has no idea.

• 9:41Speaker 00

  I'm not fighting either.

• 9:42Speaker 03

  You guys are fighting.

• 9:43Speaker 02

  It honestly sounds racist that he's like, it's more impressive when he, when he tackles a white man.

• 9:47Speaker 00

  Mm hmm.

• 9:48Speaker 03

  What?

• 9:48Speaker 02

  Yeah, quarterback. You're like, oh, sack.

• 9:50Speaker 03

  Who's playing quarterback last night?

• 9:51Speaker 02

  Jackson Dart.

• 9:52Speaker 03

  For the Giants?

• 9:52Speaker 02

  Jackson Dart.

• 9:53Speaker 03

  Yeah. For the majority of that game?

• 9:55Speaker 02

  Starting, what do you mean majority? You don't like minorities?

• 9:58Speaker 03

  Oh, see, the majority means that he played a majority of the snaps.

• 10:02Speaker 02

  You're discounting the minority.

• 10:03Speaker 00

  So the minority quarterback actually was Jackson Dart?

• 10:06Speaker 03

  Correct, in last night's game.

• 10:07Speaker 00

  Wow, that's interesting.

• 10:08Speaker 02

  Oh, you, so you're saying that like he's being replaced?

• 10:11Speaker 03

  He had a minority of the snaps. Yes.

• 10:13Speaker 02

  Interesting. I, I think you've revealed a lot about what makes you tick today. And thank you for that.

• 10:17Speaker 00

  Yeah, we actually had, so we were, to, to catch up the listeners, the, we were interviewing Scottie Scheffler at, at the team hotel last night, and we were waiting for Scottie Scheffler. And I realized this, we've been doing this show for a very long time, and we've been in these settings a lot of times, and we got to start recording them because whenever we're just all sitting in a small room together, we just start doing a show without the show, without anything on. And so we started doing the show about Max hitting Aaron Donald. I think we should, I think we should start recording that and then putting out a best of the, what didn't make the show.

• 10:56Speaker 02

  But Max, Max does root against Aaron Donald. He's admitting that, but it's mostly just because he thinks that Aaron Donald is a threat to the Eagles.

• 11:02Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 11:02Speaker 03

  We do have a lot of these on PMTV of what you're describing.

• 11:07Speaker 02

  I don't think.

• 11:07Speaker 00

  Never heard of it.

• 11:09Speaker 03

  Check it out on our YouTube.

• 11:11Speaker 02

  He looked okay for not having played football in a couple of years.

• 11:13Speaker 00

  I just invented PMTV.

• 11:16Speaker 03

  That's exactly what you did.

• 11:17Speaker 00

  Whoops. Okay, my bad. Oh, that's why Shane had the camera?

• 11:22Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 11:25Speaker 00

  Oh, man. Okay. Uh, what else going on, guys? Anything, anything going on in the NFL world?

• 11:32Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 11:33Speaker 00

  Should we talk college football?

• 11:34Speaker 02

  Yeah. So, uh, let's, let's do our injury check in.

• 11:36Speaker 00

  Yeah, let's do injury check in. How's Jaden doing?

• 11:38Speaker 02

  With Dr. Hank.

• 11:39Speaker 00

  How's Jaden doing?

• 11:40Speaker 02

  Doctor, start with Jaden. Doctor Hank, can you give us an injury roundup around the league?

• 11:44Speaker 04

  Drake May, clean bill of health. Looking good.

• 11:46Speaker 02

  Thank God.

• 11:47Speaker 04

  Jane Daniels, uh, I don't know if it's because we talked about this on the show and the algorithm, just the, there are a lot of memes, not AI memes about, about his teammates leaving him, talks about, I don't know what happened at, at ASU with like people celebrating when he left. But there's, there's rumors in scuttlebutt, which I, I don't believe, I, I believe PFT that there might be some locker room issues with Jane Daniels. I, I, I don't know how that's related to his injury, but.

• 12:14Speaker 03

  Hank said he doesn't believe that.

• 12:15Speaker 02

  Good. Yeah. I'm glad he doesn't believe that.

• 12:17Speaker 04

  It's just the, the, the speculation just goes up and up by the day and there's just more and more.

• 12:21Speaker 02

  One thing we won't do is speculate.

• 12:22Speaker 04

  Did, did teammates really have a party for him when he left ASU?

• 12:26Speaker 02

  Yeah, some of the teammates were happy that he left. Yeah.

• 12:28Speaker 04

  What? That seems.

• 12:30Speaker 02

  We don't know. There, you can, the rumors are out there that like, maybe they didn't love his mom being around all the time.

• 12:35Speaker 04

  Jackson's art one was crazy. Like I assumed there was, this was like a taken out of context or something. Did you see this one?

• 12:41Speaker 00

  Oh, side by side?

• 12:42Speaker 02

  Yeah. I mean, there, it is apples to oranges because one was the very last play of the first half and the guys were on their way to the locker room. And the second was during a play and the guys were staying on the field.

• 12:51Speaker 04

  Yeah. Yeah. I figured, yeah.

• 12:52Speaker 02

  They wouldn't walk off the field if they had another play they had to run. Uh, the other was, I honestly, I don't think that you need to make up stories about Jaden being a locker room problem.

• 13:02Speaker 04

  Agreed.

• 13:02Speaker 02

  The commanders. There's enough, there's enough to go around to talk about Jaden and the injuries and the will he won't he, should he come back?

• 13:10Speaker 00

  Yeah, this seems unnecessary.

• 13:11Speaker 02

  It seems unnecessary. I, I honestly do not believe for even a, a brief moment that his teammates don't like him. From what, everything that I've heard, his teammates love him. He was voted captain by his teammates.

• 13:23Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 13:23Speaker 02

  So, and, and this is the first year, I think with Dan Quinn, where it's had, they've had season long captains and not just like week to week. And they voted him as a captain. What?

• 13:33Speaker 03

  Quarterback has to be a captain.

• 13:35Speaker 02

  If.

• 13:36Speaker 03

  Not, not all. It would be a.

• 13:37Speaker 02

  Not always.

• 13:38Speaker 03

  I, I mean, if you're a third year player.

• 13:40Speaker 02

  Right.

• 13:41Speaker 03

  You've.

• 13:41Speaker 02

  But if they.

• 13:42Speaker 03

  Been in the spot like.

• 13:43Speaker 02

  But if they hated.

• 13:44Speaker 03

  Wasn't the captain, that would be a big red flag.

• 13:46Speaker 02

  But if they hated him, I don't think they've, the point of what I'm saying is I honestly don't think for even a second that, that team doesn't like him. I, I know from what I've seen and I pay pretty close attention to the commanders news and like interviews and shit and training camp, they love him. His teammates love him. Uh, so.

• 14:03Speaker 03

  I'm giving you.

• 14:04Speaker 02

  I'm not worried about that.

• 14:04Speaker 04

  There's just a lot of talk, not only about the injury, but kind of how he is off the field and the same with Caleb Williams.

• 14:09Speaker 02

  They love him.

• 14:10Speaker 00

  What happened with Caleb Williams?

• 14:11Speaker 04

  He's, he's perfectly fine. Uh, he's probably practicing today.

• 14:14Speaker 00

  That's just not true. Hold on.

• 14:16Speaker 02

  Would you put him ahead or behind of Drake May in the health?

• 14:20Speaker 04

  Ahead. I put him ahead.

• 14:21Speaker 02

  Healthiest is Caleb, second Drake May.

• 14:23Speaker 00

  If you take out.

• 14:24Speaker 02

  Better and then third.

• 14:25Speaker 00

  Hank, if you take out, uh, grade two and three hamstring, uh, tears, what's the most severe hamstring injury you could have?

• 14:35Speaker 04

  Grade, I don't know.

• 14:36Speaker 00

  Grade one, grade one, which is what Caleb has. So discounting two and three, he's got the most severe one that you could have. And thank God his body is like Wolverine and he healed so fast. Uh, I don't know why all these disgusting, you know, Andrew Tate, Connor Filiberto, Dave Portnoy's of the world are just making fun of a guy for showing a little emotion on a football field. Football's an emotional sport.

• 15:05Speaker 04

  I, I sat, it was, I think it might've been in New York, but I, I sat and, and you guys talked about Mac Jones crying, getting taken off the field.

• 15:12Speaker 02

  That's because he had.

• 15:13Speaker 04

  For probably an entire episode.

• 15:15Speaker 00

  Let me ask you a question.

• 15:16Speaker 04

  Big Cat specifically being like, if your quarterback is doing this, you guys suck.

• 15:22Speaker 00

  Let me ask you a question, Hank.

• 15:24Speaker 04

  This is not a sign of a QB one.

• 15:26Speaker 02

  The DUIs that he had, like bloodshot, red.

• 15:29Speaker 00

  Oh, that was, yeah, that was a DUI. That wasn't.

• 15:31Speaker 04

  No, no, no, no, no. It, no.

• 15:33Speaker 02

  No, the crying eyes from him.

• 15:34Speaker 04

  You just made up, like you just tried to, you just tried to deflect.

• 15:37Speaker 00

  No, no, the DUI eyes is what we were talking about.

• 15:39Speaker 02

  The DUIs matched with.

• 15:40Speaker 04

  It was not.

• 15:41Speaker 00

  Well, let me ask you a question, Hank. Are you, how old are you?

• 15:45Speaker 04

  That's, you can't ask that question in the workplace.

• 15:47Speaker 00

  What?

• 15:48Speaker 04

  It's illegal.

• 15:48Speaker 03

  That's, that's a good point by Hank. You're not allowed to ask that question.

• 15:50Speaker 02

  Yep. Never ask a woman how much she weighs.

• 15:53Speaker 03

  You're not allowed to ask.

• 15:53Speaker 02

  Never ask Dave Portnoy how much money he makes. Never ask Hank his age.

• 15:57Speaker 00

  Why, never ask Dave Portnoy, why does he only take one bite? What? You're 34?

• 16:02Speaker 04

  Whoa.

• 16:03Speaker 00

  33?

• 16:04Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 16:04Speaker 00

  Okay. You're 33. Would you say that as a 33 year old, you're the same guy as you were, you know, when you were 25? Like this Mac Jones thing you're bringing up, I was 37 years old and only a father of two. People can change.

• 16:20Speaker 04

  This is, this is like, how long ago was this?

• 16:23Speaker 00

  People can change.

• 16:24Speaker 02

  I'd forgotten.

• 16:25Speaker 00

  I think about my, I think about 37 year old me. I was so immature.

• 16:28Speaker 02

  I'd forgot about the Mac Jones tears. Thank you for bringing that up.

• 16:31Speaker 00

  I was so immature. 2022? Was it?

• 16:34Speaker 04

  2022.

• 16:35Speaker 00

  Yeah. So what, I mean, what, how was I, I was 37. I mean, that's a, I was a baby. I'm not even a man.

• 16:42Speaker 02

  What did Mac Jones?

• 16:43Speaker 00

  Now I'm a man.

• 16:44Speaker 04

  A high ankle sprain.

• 16:45Speaker 02

  Is it a high ankle sprain?

• 16:46Speaker 00

  Crying is actually.

• 16:47Speaker 02

  What grade?

• 16:47Speaker 00

  Good.

• 16:48Speaker 04

  I don't remember the grade.

• 16:50Speaker 02

  I would, see the thing is I'm watching this from afar and, uh, I'm secretly envious of Bears fans.

• 16:57Speaker 00

  Why?

• 16:57Speaker 02

  Because this.

• 16:58Speaker 00

  Cause our, cause our quarterback is Wolverine.

• 17:00Speaker 02

  This is what you would want if, if you're, if we're talking about injuries during the week. As somebody that's dealing with the other side of that coin, I would much rather my quarterback be a giant pussy than be injured.

• 17:10Speaker 00

  Now, I don't know if giant pussy, that's a lot. That's a lot. That's erroneous. I'm throwing that out of court.

• 17:16Speaker 02

  I would love it if he was, if he was a big win.

• 17:18Speaker 00

  Okay. So in the moment.

• 17:20Speaker 02

  I, I.

• 17:20Speaker 00

  He was very hurt.

• 17:21Speaker 02

  I pray for days like that instead of actually having an injury.

• 17:25Speaker 00

  In the moment, he, he thought he was very hurt. And then, did you guys know that, uh, your heart rate often rises just before, at the start of crying, then drops, breathing slows and respiratory sinus arrhythmia. Uh, so it actually calms you down. So.

• 17:40Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 17:40Speaker 00

  Basically Caleb healed himself in those moments on the cart.

• 17:44Speaker 02

  Which is actually amazing. Like.

• 17:45Speaker 00

  It's incredible.

• 17:46Speaker 02

  The human body.

• 17:47Speaker 00

  We should be talking about that.

• 17:48Speaker 03

  So do you think that he went down with a, when the injury happened, it could have been a grade three and then.

• 17:52Speaker 00

  Grade three, possibly Achilles.

• 17:54Speaker 03

  Well, okay, that's just a different part of the body.

• 17:56Speaker 00

  But you don't know, we don't know. The doctors weren't able to look at it. They got him on the cart. He put the towel over his head. Quick little cry, healed.

• 18:05Speaker 02

  Like what, what Caleb did was he made his own personal injury tent with the Gatorade.

• 18:09Speaker 00

  Correct.

• 18:10Speaker 02

  And then while he was in there, he, he respawned.

• 18:12Speaker 00

  Yeah. Yeah.

• 18:13Speaker 03

  That's impressive.

• 18:14Speaker 00

  It's, yeah. Again, we should be talking about his ability.

• 18:16Speaker 03

  What a trait to have as a quarterback.

• 18:18Speaker 00

  His ability to come back from injury is insane. It's surreal.

• 18:21Speaker 03

  I have a question.

• 18:22Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 18:22Speaker 03

  Either of you torn your hamstrings in the past?

• 18:24Speaker 00

  Yeah, I had a grade two.

• 18:25Speaker 02

  I have.

• 18:26Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 18:26Speaker 02

  I had, I had grade two borderline, grade three was almost all the way torn through.

• 18:29Speaker 03

  What was your reaction to that?

• 18:31Speaker 02

  I don't, I don't remember. I don't think that anyone knows what it was.

• 18:34Speaker 00

  I cried.

• 18:35Speaker 03

  Okay.

• 18:36Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 18:36Speaker 02

  I don't think it's possible to tell what my reaction was.

• 18:39Speaker 00

  I might not have cried.

• 18:39Speaker 02

  Unlike, unlike, unlike NFL quarterbacks, I don't get these injuries on film on a football field.

• 18:44Speaker 03

  What was, actually, oh, wait, we had, shockingly, we do have this injury on field.

• 18:50Speaker 00

  What is this? Are you saying people can't have different, uh, responses? You ever, have you ever heard of like people who are in shock? And they have a different response? They don't even remember something?

• 18:59Speaker 02

  I agree. Big Cat trauma is by individual to individual.

• 19:02Speaker 00

  Exactly. Max.

• 19:04Speaker 03

  So one individual.

• 19:05Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 19:06Speaker 03

  Can handle it a little bit better than another individual.

• 19:07Speaker 02

  One individual can be really, really tough and strong.

• 19:10Speaker 00

  What part of?

• 19:10Speaker 02

  And, and a real guy's guy.

• 19:12Speaker 00

  What part of Caleb's handling of it was, was, was not good? He was, he was.

• 19:16Speaker 04

  He's retweeting stuff about, like, he seems to be in his feels about it.

• 19:19Speaker 00

  No, not at all. He's, he's taking notes. He's taking notes online.

• 19:24Speaker 02

  Let me look up his retweets. He's writing these down.

• 19:28Speaker 00

  Well, I mean, Dave Portnoy, Dave Portnoy is a disgusting pig who is.

• 19:33Speaker 04

  What about, yeah, what about the TikToks?

• 19:35Speaker 00

  That guy made some great points.

• 19:38Speaker 03

  Toxic masculinity.

• 19:38Speaker 00

  Toxic masculinity is a problem in this world.

• 19:41Speaker 03

  Right now, some of us are displaying toxic masculinity.

• 19:43Speaker 00

  Exactly. Some of us are actually mature adults who understand that, uh, it's, first of all, the, the way these guys are battling every Sunday for our enjoyment. And then they get hurt and oh, they're, they're now soft, as you say, come on, please.

• 20:01Speaker 04

  So you're saying.

• 20:02Speaker 03

  The S word.

• 20:02Speaker 04

  So you're saying.

• 20:03Speaker 00

  PFT called him a pussy.

• 20:04Speaker 02

  No, I said, I would rather, I was playing a game, would I rather? And from where I sit, I would rather people be saying those things about my quarterback than to actually have a quarterback that is, you know, maybe his left arm might fall off.

• 20:17Speaker 04

  We're gonna ask. Uh, you're saying that he, it's okay for him to have feelings while simultaneously saying he's not in his feels about people chirping him?

• 20:27Speaker 00

  I don't know. I, you, how do you know that he's on in people's feels? Retweets are not endorsements.

• 20:32Speaker 02

  I'm looking at his Twitter right now.

• 20:34Speaker 00

  Everyone knows retweets aren't endorsements. I have it in my bio.

• 20:37Speaker 02

  He does not have that in his bio.

• 20:39Speaker 04

  In his bio.

• 20:40Speaker 02

  But there's no retweet. I don't.

• 20:41Speaker 04

  He's also gone all over multiple platforms, reposts on TikTok.

• 20:45Speaker 00

  Well, the guy on Instagram made some really good points, really, really good points about how this world is, I mean, we're going to hell in a bucket.

• 20:53Speaker 03

  And most guys don't even know how to make girls calm.

• 20:55Speaker 00

  Right. Exactly.

• 20:56Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 20:57Speaker 00

  I don't.

• 20:57Speaker 02

  Wait, what?

• 20:58Speaker 03

  That's what, that's what, that's how the guy started off.

• 21:01Speaker 00

  The other one was, the other one was that, uh, people are like weirdly, the, the, the losers going after Caleb are weirdly attracted to him, which I think that's true. I think Dave is probably attracted to him.

• 21:12Speaker 02

  I'm looking at, I'm looking at the retweets from Caleb. There's no recent retweets. I guess he deleted those or he unretweeted them.

• 21:17Speaker 00

  That's fine too.

• 21:18Speaker 02

  But.

• 21:18Speaker 00

  He slipped, finger slipped.

• 21:19Speaker 02

  The most recent reply that he has is a guy that was talking about his Hot Ones appearance saying, go in a DoorDash, a 12 piece and sit in my living room butt ass naked with a bottle of bourbon. So it feels like me and my bro are eating together. And he replied, cry, cry, cry.

• 21:33Speaker 00

  Yeah. He killed for the fans.

• 21:35Speaker 02

  That's the most recent.

• 21:36Speaker 00

  Killed for the fans. What are you showing PFT's hamstring for?

• 21:39Speaker 03

  I just wanted to see it.

• 21:40Speaker 02

  Oh, I forgot about that.

• 21:40Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 21:41Speaker 03

  We, we.

• 21:41Speaker 00

  He got hurt.

• 21:42Speaker 03

  We didn't have this on camera at football.

• 21:44Speaker 02

  Oh yeah, it popped. I, I kept running a little bit and then I get to the sidelines like a football guy.

• 21:48Speaker 00

  Yep.

• 21:49Speaker 02

  Get out of bounds.

• 21:50Speaker 00

  That's good.

• 21:51Speaker 02

  Get out of bounds, young man.

• 21:52Speaker 03

  This was probably grade one as well, right?

• 21:53Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 21:54Speaker 02

  No, it was, it was, uh, very high grade two, almost grade three.

• 21:58Speaker 00

  Listen, I had the same injury as PFT. I talked about it a lot last year, you wouldn't even know.

• 22:03Speaker 02

  I did the interview. I can submit my MRI if we, if we want to analyze the MRI.

• 22:09Speaker 00

  Mine too.

• 22:09Speaker 02

  And we could put it side by side with Caleb's.

• 22:11Speaker 00

  Listen, you guys are just being ugly.

• 22:12Speaker 02

  I scored, I actually scored on the play.

• 22:14Speaker 00

  You did, you got all the way there.

• 22:15Speaker 02

  Touchdown, Tuddy.

• 22:16Speaker 05

  Tuddy.

• 22:17Speaker 00

  Um.

• 22:17Speaker 05

  That was a grade two?

• 22:18Speaker 02

  Yeah, very high grade.

• 22:20Speaker 05

  Almost grade three.

• 22:21Speaker 00

  Almost grade three.

• 22:21Speaker 02

  I can still, if you want, you can feel the lump in my hamstring that's still there.

• 22:24Speaker 05

  You're not even walking with a limp.

• 22:25Speaker 02

  I didn't, no, I did.

• 22:26Speaker 00

  He did, he had a limp.

• 22:27Speaker 02

  With a big limp, yeah.

• 22:28Speaker 00

  Yeah, also adrenaline's a thing.

• 22:30Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 22:31Speaker 00

  Caleb had a limp, he had a light limp. What, what, are you, are you saying, are you saying he didn't have a light limp?

• 22:36Speaker 05

  No, he had a severe limp.

• 22:37Speaker 00

  Now you're just trying to, to, to erase the facts memes?

• 22:40Speaker 02

  I read the reports in the.

• 22:41Speaker 04

  I feel like you want him not to play this week, just so you can say he's in more injured than he is. Would you rather him play or not play?

• 22:47Speaker 00

  Wolverine, like I said. He's, he's somehow the greatest ever to come back from injuries from severe grade one hamstring injuries.

• 22:56Speaker 04

  So you want him to play?

• 22:57Speaker 05

  You went through a roller coaster yesterday of being like, let me attack everyone who says he's coming back because it seemed like he was going to come back against the Eagles. And then you were like, oh, oh, okay.

• 23:07Speaker 00

  Well, no.

• 23:08Speaker 05

  So Scheffler said he's probably not even going to play this week.

• 23:09Speaker 00

  Well, he's weak.

• 23:10Speaker 05

  And you said that with a sense of relief.

• 23:13Speaker 00

  No, no, the injury news is all over the place. Is.

• 23:17Speaker 04

  There was relief when you said that.

• 23:19Speaker 00

  Then it was not back. I want him to play. And he, he'll probably play because he's the toughest guy I've ever seen.

• 23:24Speaker 04

  But you were like, oh.

• 23:25Speaker 00

  Listen, two guys, two guys on Sunday, two guys on, yeah, because everyone's freaking out.

• 23:30Speaker 02

  Crisis averted.

• 23:31Speaker 00

  Tom Pellicero says that he's playing and then Scheffler says he's not, let's get on the same page, guys.

• 23:35Speaker 05

  But wouldn't you be upset that your quarterback's not going to play?

• 23:38Speaker 00

  One guy on, I am, I do, I want him to play on Monday.

• 23:42Speaker 02

  I'm so upset.

• 23:42Speaker 00

  I want him to play on Monday.

• 23:44Speaker 04

  But you were relieved when you.

• 23:45Speaker 00

  Well, no, because I was relieved that they were actually getting real news. Tom Pellicero is just conjecture, wild conjecture.

• 23:50Speaker 05

  That also wasn't real news from Scheffler.

• 23:52Speaker 00

  It was real news from Scheffler. I trust Scheffler. He's never been wrong about any injury news, except for the one that he got wrong with Kobe Bryant in the preseason. That was specifically about the Bears. Maybe his bear source isn't great. Either, neither here nor there. Uh, I remember what I was going to say, but it was going to be a good point.

• 24:07Speaker 04

  How long is Jayden out?

• 24:09Speaker 02

  It depends. He's seeing a specialist today. They're going to tell him whether or not he needs the surgery or not. My, my fear is that he's going to try to play through it, give himself like three weeks off like he did last time, put the brace on, get back out there. And then America will have to watch him dislocate his left elbow the next time he tries to brace himself for a fall again. And that's, I don't, nobody wants this. Uh, I, I know that he's a tough guy. He wants to get out there and compete. He's trying his hardest to get out there. I hope, I wish that he could play next week. That'd be awesome if he was healthy enough to play next week, but.

• 24:38Speaker 04

  What happens if he has to get surgery?

• 24:39Speaker 02

  Then probably out for the rest of the season.

• 24:41Speaker 04

  Oh.

• 24:42Speaker 02

  And there's Hank rooting for injuries again.

• 24:44Speaker 04

  That sucks.

• 24:45Speaker 02

  Yeah. Rooting for injuries. This all, I was thinking about this on the way in. This whole offseason has felt vaguely.

• 24:51Speaker 04

  Season started.

• 24:52Speaker 02

  Is, no, Hank, let me finish my point, please. It's felt recently in DC vaguely Snyder-esque in the way things have gone. Like injured starting left tackle in preseason, out. PR mistake involving quarterback, out. New offense coordinator asking quarterback to do things that he hasn't done before. Check. Stadium renderings come out after a, a bad loss against a division rival. Check. To like pat you on the head, there, there, it'll be okay. I catastrophic injury involving your, your quarterback in the future, check. It feels, I don't want to cast dispersions on Josh Harris, but it feels like I can blame LeBron for this.

• 25:32Speaker 02

  That LeBron has, has taken Josh Harris's eye off the ball because he had to spend the entire offseason coddling his new player for the Sixers. So I, I kind of blame Josh Harris for.

• 25:42Speaker 00

  LeBron James, by the way, at the Rams game, not at practice.

• 25:45Speaker 02

  Not at practice. And Josh is probably very concerned about that.

• 25:48Speaker 00

  Not at practice.

• 25:49Speaker 02

  Taking his eye off the ball.

• 25:49Speaker 00

  In LA, he seems like he doesn't want to leave LA.

• 25:52Speaker 05

  September.

• 25:53Speaker 00

  Yeah. All right, I, I, can I do real talk for a second? Um, real talk, I, I, I think the internet is crazy, the fact they're not applauding. Chicago had two serious, serious injuries on Sunday. Alex Bregman broke eight bones in his face and Caleb Williams had a severe mild one, uh, or severe grade one hamstring. And both guys are going to probably play. Like, that's insane. Chicago tough. That's crazy. Both those injuries are very similar. Right? Both very similar, but uh, no, actual real talk, I, I enjoyed the hell out of yesterday because the memes about Caleb are funny. I, I like, that's the internet being the internet. You can't actually be upset if, about the memes. They were.

• 26:39Speaker 04

  Caleb was.

• 26:41Speaker 00

  You don't know that. You know, you know how he's feeling? Oh, the king of don't tell me how I'm feeling, Henry Lockwood?

• 26:46Speaker 04

  If I start reposting stuff on my story.

• 26:48Speaker 00

  I'll remember this. I'll remember this, Hank.

• 26:50Speaker 04

  That's, that's.

• 26:51Speaker 00

  Next time I try to tell you how you're feeling.

• 26:53Speaker 02

  Good point. Maybe Caleb has.

• 26:54Speaker 00

  Can't exist.

• 26:55Speaker 02

  Maybe he's got resting injured face.

• 26:57Speaker 00

  Click that video, the video of the, the guy. That guy's making a great point.

• 27:03Speaker 00

  What? Armstring. Most of you guys don't even know how to make women come. Exactly. He kind of looks like Colton and sounds like him.

• 27:10Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 27:15Speaker 00

  Great point.

• 27:16Speaker 02

  Good impressions.

• 27:16Speaker 00

  Great point. No, all right. So.

• 27:18Speaker 02

  Fred Caliendo?

• 27:18Speaker 00

  In seriousness, I, uh, the, the memes were very, very funny. If you get upset about the memes, you're a loser because that's the internet being the internet. I also think there is a weird undercurrent of people who actually do hate Caleb and they will use it as like, like it's not a meme. They're just like, he's the softest like pussy ever. And like, this is crazy. Those people are weird to me just because they, they'll hate Caleb for anything. And I actually am a little excited that it was getting a little too calm. When Caleb gets drafted, the fingernails, everything, like everyone's, oh, this guy can't be a quarterback. And last year he was just, he wins a playoff game, beats the Packers twice. Week one happens, people stopped kind of hating Caleb. Now we're back to people hating Caleb.

• 28:03Speaker 00

  And I love it because when he wins, it will be that much sweeter. So I'm excited. I'm excited for the opportunity.

• 28:10Speaker 04

  Yeah, you'll have it on Monday.

• 28:12Speaker 00

  Yeah, hopefully he'll play. Hopefully he'll play. The memes were very funny though. I mean, that was a, there was an onslaught. It was from like nine AM to.

• 28:21Speaker 04

  You were getting mad though. You got, you got mad at memes.

• 28:24Speaker 00

  What? When?

• 28:26Speaker 04

  In the morning.

• 28:27Speaker 00

  What'd I say?

• 28:29Speaker 04

  Means like I memed.

• 28:30Speaker 00

  I said, I texted him and I said, meme anything you want from the pardon my take main account. Did I not?

• 28:35Speaker 05

  Yeah, he was just including me in the toxic masculinity.

• 28:38Speaker 00

  You, wait, did you think I was being serious when I was, was saying memes, you're being mean?

• 28:44Speaker 04

  Kind of.

• 28:44Speaker 00

  Okay. I'm sorry.

• 28:46Speaker 04

  You were, you were half, you, you like were in your field at first and then gradually.

• 28:51Speaker 00

  Hank, Hank, Hank. You can call my quarterback soft, you can call him pussy, you can do all that stuff. If you thought that my tweets yesterday were not having fun with the whole situation, you're basically like.

• 29:03Speaker 04

  No, you were, you were.

• 29:05Speaker 00

  What? Hank, look at my tweets. I called out Barstool Sports.

• 29:09Speaker 04

  I, I saw, I know.

• 29:11Speaker 00

  Barstool Sports was disgusting.

• 29:12Speaker 05

  There were stars. You couldn't really tell what you were talking about.

• 29:14Speaker 00

  That was today. I called him out with the stars because I don't want, I don't want Dave Portnoy fucking name searching me. It's disgusting. Hank, I can guarantee you that those memes, I was having a very good time with, with people, the Legos guy, which that is actually a serious injury.

• 29:30Speaker 02

  It's going to be great once the.

• 29:31Speaker 00

  You're, you're the king right now of trying to gaslight.

• 29:34Speaker 02

  Once the brands start getting involved, that's when it's really going to, I think we're about like three days away.

• 29:38Speaker 00

  Oh, the brands are definitely.

• 29:39Speaker 02

  Brands getting approval from, from firing off, like McDonald's doing, uh, when the, when the milkshake machine is down.

• 29:45Speaker 00

  Yeah. Yeah, no, these people, these people are, toxic masculinity is rampant in our society. Klavikler, Dave Portnoy, Andrew Tate, Connor Filberto.

• 29:55Speaker 02

  I hope, I hope he'll be back.

• 29:57Speaker 00

  The big four.

• 29:58Speaker 05

  Are Bears fans actually mad at the memes?

• 30:00Speaker 00

  Uh, if, if anyone who is, is, is being a loser, uh, I think there are also, there's the, I think Bears fans are mostly more fighting against like the people I was talking about, the undercurrent of people who actually hate Caleb. Like actually despise him and want any excuse to like call him out. If you're mad about the memes, you're a loser. Those memes are funny.

• 30:21Speaker 02

  Memes.

• 30:21Speaker 00

  Like it's, ultimately, do you, I think Caleb probably is sitting at home right now being like, I probably maybe wish I hadn't, you know, taken the cart, knowing that I'm not that injured. Like it would, it happens. What are you going to do?

• 30:33Speaker 02

  Memes, did you get upset at all the Aaron Rodgers memes when he tore his Achilles?

• 30:37Speaker 05

  Uh, I still get upset because it gets tweeted out every single day.

• 30:41Speaker 02

  Yeah, it has really lived on.

• 30:43Speaker 05

  And he actually tore his Achilles.

• 30:45Speaker 00

  Yeah, that's a real injury.

• 30:46Speaker 05

  Five snaps.

• 30:47Speaker 00

  Kind of like a grade one hamstring.

• 30:49Speaker 02

  I didn't think about that until, until yesterday. And I was like, memes has just been dealing non-stop with Aaron Rodgers, American flags. And like, I don't even think about that meme as being like, something that's even related to an Achilles. That's how, that's how poison my brain has become from the internet. But it must suck as a Jets fan, like all day, every day, to see a reminder of a very promising season that got brought down by an injury in like the second play.

• 31:14Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 31:14Speaker 05

  Yeah, you just see it, but people just like.

• 31:16Speaker 00

  It was such a sick injury.

• 31:17Speaker 05

  They rub it in your face because it's just like, oh, it's a Jets. Who cares that your quarterback got injured? But Bears quarterback gets injured, it's, you can't meme it?

• 31:24Speaker 00

  No, you can. What are you talking about? Who's saying you can't meme?

• 31:27Speaker 05

  There, there are Bears, yeah, there are Bears fans.

• 31:29Speaker 00

  But Jets fans were saying you can't meme it too.

• 31:31Speaker 05

  No.

• 31:32Speaker 00

  What?

• 31:33Speaker 05

  We just say, we just accept.

• 31:34Speaker 00

  Oh, come on. I think we're, I think we're confusing some things here. You can definitely meme the Caleb injury. Hank, which tweet of mine yesterday did you think I was actually like really?

• 31:43Speaker 04

  I didn't say tweet. I was talking, we were, we were together all day.

• 31:46Speaker 00

  I told, I texted memes right away. I was like, unload the clip. I don't give a fuck. It's funny. You got to do it. You got to do your job.

• 31:52Speaker 04

  Okay, I was wrong. My bad.

• 31:54Speaker 00

  I mean, they're like, it's a ridiculous story. It's a ridiculous, like the whole thing is crazy. He's, he's not that hurt. And it's, it's funny that it all happened.

• 32:05Speaker 02

  It's great.

• 32:06Speaker 00

  I thought he was, in that moment, I thought he was very, very hurt. Yeah, the bow tie doctor I don't trust, by the way. That's when you get a, a guy can't go on TV with a bow tie and be like, I'm a doctor.

• 32:16Speaker 02

  I love doctors after like a big injury happens that they, they just call the news and they're like, hey, hey, news.

• 32:22Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 32:22Speaker 02

  I'm a doctor. If you want to have me on the news.

• 32:25Speaker 00

  Yeah, I was, yeah, the guy who said the, yeah, this is Barstool Sports being gross. Conversation, yeah, it's, it's disgusting stuff. It's, Barstool Sports is a, is a plague to society. I think we can all agree.

• 32:39Speaker 02

  Yeah, some of the, some of the longest term employees, I would say at Barstool Sports.

• 32:42Speaker 00

  Agreed. Yeah, Blutman getting in on it. Sad stuff from Blutman. Really, really sad. That's a good quote. I'll just remind everyone, crying doesn't mean you're weak. Sometimes it's what you need to do to get strong again.

• 32:56Speaker 02

  And uh

• 32:56Speaker 03

  Did a lot of crying and he got strong really quick.

• 32:58Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 32:59Speaker 00

  Thank you.

• 32:59Speaker 02

  So yeah.

• 33:00Speaker 00

  So point proven.

• 33:01Speaker 03

  Great quote.

• 33:01Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 33:02Speaker 02

  In the uh

• 33:04Speaker 00

  Hank thought I was being dead serious with that quote.

• 33:06Speaker 02

  In the serious injury commanders wrap up 14 starters are out with injuries now. 14, 14 out of 22. That's I would, I would love for the biggest controversy to be that my quarterback can't handle a little bit of pain.

• 33:19Speaker 00

  Yeah. Do you see the exclamation point? That's the giveaway. Mean memes exclamation point. That's a pretty good giveaway that it's, I'm not actually saying memes.

• 33:30Speaker 02

  But counterpoint to that, I think we're entering like minute 10 of you arguing that you're not mad.

• 33:34Speaker 00

  Well, because I don't like that Hank is doing this where he, I guess I, I now.

• 33:38Speaker 03

  That was good.

• 33:39Speaker 00

  Yes, good counterpoint. I just kept. It's good counterpoint because he didn't come with any facts and he just said that, oh, you were really mad.

• 33:45Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 33:45Speaker 00

  He is gaslighting me. So I'm, I now understand why Hank gets upset at us.

• 33:49Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 33:50Speaker 00

  I get it. He's gaslighting me. But let's hear about the commanders injuries.

• 33:53Speaker 02

  No, I was just saying 14 out of 22.

• 33:55Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 33:55Speaker 02

  That's a lot. It's a lot. One guy had to spend the night in the hospital. He almost died.

• 34:02Speaker 00

  That's bad.

• 34:03Speaker 02

  Hope Nick Cross is okay.

• 34:05Speaker 00

  Okay. Anything else? With Caleb or commanders or any injuries?

• 34:10Speaker 03

  Dallas Goddard.

• 34:12Speaker 00

  Yeah. What happened with him?

• 34:13Speaker 03

  He's hurt.

• 34:13Speaker 02

  But you got Zach Ertz.

• 34:15Speaker 03

  Zach Ertz back.

• 34:16Speaker 00

  How long is Dallas Goddard out?

• 34:18Speaker 03

  Couple of weeks.

• 34:19Speaker 00

  Okay.

• 34:20Speaker 03

  Yeah, it'll be fine.

• 34:21Speaker 00

  Did he cry?

• 34:23Speaker 03

  Uh, probably. I don't think he cried.

• 34:25Speaker 02

  The Eagles do a very good job of, like, that's what Big Dom does.

• 34:28Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 34:29Speaker 03

  He makes up cries.

• 34:29Speaker 02

  Nobody can see. Yeah.

• 34:30Speaker 00

  Cover up the tears. We also should just be talking about the fact that Caleb's mustache did look cool in that moment.

• 34:35Speaker 02

  Oh, it looked great. Yeah.

• 34:36Speaker 00

  It looked really good. We need to have more conversation about his chiseled jaw.

• 34:39Speaker 02

  He, he did look.

• 34:40Speaker 00

  Less about the tears.

• 34:41Speaker 02

  As far as a guy crying, getting carted off the field, that was probably the hottest it's ever looked.

• 34:46Speaker 00

  The, the Trump Caleb mashup was pretty good.

• 34:49Speaker 02

  That was good. Yeah.

• 34:49Speaker 00

  Fight. With the flag, flags in front of him.

• 34:52Speaker 03

  It was crazy. We went from Caleb Derrick Rose mashups to Caleb Trump mashups immediately.

• 34:59Speaker 00

  Yes. Yes.

• 35:00Speaker 03

  It was like memes to like the saddest degree to like clowning him within 12 hours.

• 35:06Speaker 00

  Yeah. The fact that he's not very injured, injured is making it so that we can, people can laugh about it because it would have sucked. I mean, I did think he tore his Achilles in the moment. Very wrong.

• 35:16Speaker 03

  Great.

• 35:16Speaker 00

  Very wrong.

• 35:16Speaker 03

  Also Saquon likely to land on IR is just, okay.

• 35:20Speaker 00

  What happened with him?

• 35:22Speaker 03

  Says stinger.

• 35:23Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 35:25Speaker 03

  How can you go in the IR for a stinger?

• 35:26Speaker 02

  Well, have you ever like, have you ever stepped on a bee? It hurts.

• 35:33Speaker 03

  Actually, I don't know if this guy is legit.

• 35:35Speaker 00

  Max was watching film today.

• 35:36Speaker 02

  By a fake doctor.

• 35:37Speaker 00

  Max was watching film.

• 35:39Speaker 02

  Yes.

• 35:39Speaker 03

  I am watching film. I've, I've, we've had a really busy couple of days. Turn, all 22 doesn't come out right away. That, that should, they should do that. And then Monday we weren't, I wasn't by a computer for the entirety of yesterday. So I've gotten in the film this morning. I'm about two and a half drives in. There's some good plays. There's some bad plays. There's notes on almost every play.

• 36:00Speaker 00

  Notes on almost every play.

• 36:02Speaker 03

  Some plays, it's just like, it's just like.

• 36:04Speaker 00

  Everyone did their job.

• 36:05Speaker 03

  Everyone did their job. The defense did their job. And it's like, it's a run for a three yard game.

• 36:10Speaker 02

  I would actually, I would actually love breakdowns of the most boring plays of the week.

• 36:14Speaker 03

  I have, I have a couple of them.

• 36:16Speaker 00

  Every four yard gain.

• 36:17Speaker 02

  Everyone did a good job on this play.

• 36:19Speaker 00

  Blocked it up.

• 36:20Speaker 02

  Beautiful football. That's what I'm talking about.

• 36:21Speaker 03

  No, no, no. Those are, those are not no note plays. No note plays are like runs. Where we just didn't get quite enough push and the defense, and the defense filled the gaps. Those are my no notes plays.

• 36:35Speaker 00

  Got it.

• 36:36Speaker 02

  Hmm.

• 36:36Speaker 00

  That's a film watcher right there.

• 36:38Speaker 03

  Yeah. Yeah. That's the thing about film is that uh, you gotta, I got nothing. I got nothing on film. I'm still trying to figure it out. There's some plays where I'm like, I think that this person should be doing this, but I don't know what, if that's their assignment.

• 36:53Speaker 02

  Hmm.

• 36:54Speaker 03

  So I have that, those in the notes as well.

• 36:56Speaker 02

  You just have to guess sometimes.

• 36:57Speaker 03

  I guess I'll just post a full breakdown of all of my notes when I'm done with them.

• 37:00Speaker 02

  I like that. I've been watching film too.

• 37:03Speaker 00

  Uh, all right. Yeah. How's it been going?

• 37:06Speaker 02

  Slow. It's a grind. It's just a grind because you got to watch every player. You watch one guy and then you rewind, watch the play again, watch a different guy.

• 37:15Speaker 03

  Oh, a lot of that.

• 37:15Speaker 02

  Yeah. So unless you're focused in only on one player.

• 37:19Speaker 00

  I don't know how Baldy does it. It's fucking insane.

• 37:22Speaker 03

  He does so quick.

• 37:22Speaker 00

  I know. I guess when you know what you're looking for.

• 37:25Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 37:26Speaker 02

  I think Baldy just.

• 37:26Speaker 00

  A little easier.

• 37:27Speaker 02

  I think he just watches and he just like hopes to see violence on every play.

• 37:30Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 37:31Speaker 02

  And he's like, oh yeah, that's some good violence.

• 37:33Speaker 00

  That's it. The condor.

• 37:35Speaker 02

  That's some good violence. There's a shark in my backyard. Hang on.

• 37:37Speaker 00

  The condor.

• 37:38Speaker 02

  Looks good.

• 39:50Speaker 00

  Okay. College football. Lane Kiffin uh falls up short. You see they're calling him LSU James Franklin now. Can't win the big one.

• 39:58Speaker 02

  I haven't seen that. That's, it's a little early to be doing that.

• 40:01Speaker 00

  Well, they're saying in his career.

• 40:02Speaker 02

  Yeah, in his career. Yeah. We need, I think a bigger body of evidence.

• 40:05Speaker 00

  I actually thought, and Max hopped on WUB this morning and, and I agree with his point that like, I watched that game and I was impressed that LSU came back. Obviously Trinidad Chambliss was phenomenal. He's, he's rapidly going up. I mean, he's the best college football quarterback right now. Uh, we'll have to see when Darian Mensah plays someone with a pulse, but LSU coming back was impressive. That to me was more of like a, is Sam Levitt a little overmatched type of deal than it was Lane Kiffin?

• 40:34Speaker 02

  They could have won the game. The, the opportunity was there for LSU to win and they had a quarterback that just didn't, there were like two plays that stood out on that final drive where there was an opportunity to win the game.

• 40:43Speaker 00

  Correct.

• 40:44Speaker 02

  And he didn't make the plays. So you could say, yes, sliding doors moment. That's also on Lane Kiffin, by the way, for not having him prepared to make those plays. Like that is coaching to a certain point too. Um.

• 40:54Speaker 00

  I also.

• 40:55Speaker 02

  I don't know that we can say he can't win the big one at LSU yet.

• 40:58Speaker 00

  Oh, I don't agree with that. Yeah.

• 40:59Speaker 02

  This also was an environment, this was maybe the biggest one though. Like this was an environment that I cannot really think off the top of my head of, of a more hostile environment for a regular season college football game than this.

• 41:12Speaker 00

  It's, I mean, it's, it's this or you know, the, the Michigan, Ohio State after the Mace year, you know? Uh, but even then that wasn't, I think Michigan, Michigan won that game, but they weren't, or no, was that the one? That might've been the year when they put the flag down with the year they won. When they, they went into it though, they weren't a playoff team. So maybe not as big.

• 41:32Speaker 02

  Yeah. I mean, we have rivalries and LSU Ole Miss is always a big game, especially if it's in Oxford. Like they hate Ole Miss.

• 41:39Speaker 00

  Yeah. The crowd was awesome.

• 41:40Speaker 02

  And the crowd was great. This was like, you know, a, a very, very intense environment to play in, which is great. I loved watching. Good for Ole Miss, by the way. That's got to feel really good for those guys.

• 41:49Speaker 00

  Yes.

• 41:49Speaker 02

  And Trinidad Chambliss might be the best college quarterback.

• 41:52Speaker 00

  Yep.

• 41:52Speaker 02

  I don't know if he's going to be necessarily like the best NFL quarterback or talked about in those, like, is he going to be a top 10 overall pick? I think he might be though.

• 42:01Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 42:02Speaker 02

  If he's not, depending on how tall he, he measures in at, I think he probably should be talked about as being the guy that you want. Like maybe I'm prisoner of the moment right now, but he's clearly a better quarterback than Arch Manning right now.

• 42:14Speaker 00

  Um.

• 42:14Speaker 02

  And I don't think it's close. He's.

• 42:16Speaker 00

  Six.

• 42:16Speaker 03

  He's 24.

• 42:18Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 42:19Speaker 00

  He is older. Six feet. He's six feet, six feet, six one, but everyone's saying six feet. By the way.

• 42:25Speaker 03

  Drake May's 24.

• 42:26Speaker 00

  Yeah. Trinidad's older than Drake Bay?

• 42:31Speaker 04

  They're the same age. I don't know the birthdays, but.

• 42:34Speaker 00

  I'm just saying right now Trinidad.

• 42:36Speaker 04

  That's gonna be a problem.

• 42:38Speaker 00

  That is, he's right. He's right about that.

• 42:40Speaker 02

  It will be, but he is the best college football quarterback.

• 42:42Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 42:42Speaker 03

  You know, all they say was too old to be a good rookie in the NFL.

• 42:46Speaker 00

  Kenny Pickett?

• 42:47Speaker 03

  Tyler Shuck.

• 42:48Speaker 00

  Oh, yeah, yeah, that's true.

• 42:50Speaker 02

  Good point.

• 42:50Speaker 00

  Um, the Ole Miss though has the best resume right now through three weeks because they beat Louisville on a neutral site and then they beat LSU at home. They have like, there's, we're in that portion of the schedule. It's like, I think these teams are good, but they also haven't played anyone. I mentioned Miami, like a Georgia, Georgia. We talked about it on Monday, but Georgia doing defensive line work in TV timeouts because Arkansas wasn't like doing enough to get them work.

• 43:18Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 43:19Speaker 00

  Was so, so like Kirby just, I think he's got his shit back to him, Kirby. He's got, he's got a little edge to him this year. I, uh, I'm thinking about the other games that happened, the notable stuff. Kentucky was an awesome win for our guy, Will Stein on the road, Texas A&M, top 10 team. They might've been a fraud top 10 team, uh, but still there were 17 point underdogs. They win outright. That was awesome. Like very excited for Kentucky fans. Um.

• 43:46Speaker 02

  Yeah, it was, it was great to see, uh, and he was, he was pumped up after the game too. Like, I don't know, Kentucky might be secretly good.

• 43:55Speaker 00

  Oh yeah. I mean, they had, they played well against Alabama for a half.

• 43:59Speaker 02

  And Marcel Reed might, can Messi give the jersey back?

• 44:01Speaker 00

  Yeah. Marcel Reed's not very good.

• 44:03Speaker 02

  That's looking back, it was, it was hilarious in the moment, but looking back, that jersey swap is going to be even funnier.

• 44:09Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 44:09Speaker 02

  Between him and, and Messi. But yeah, good for, good for Will Stein. That's awesome.

• 44:13Speaker 00

  Did you guys see Arch Manning?

• 44:15Speaker 02

  He said, we are the fucking storm, which is just a, that's a pretty hard quote.

• 44:19Speaker 00

  That's badass. Did you guys see that Arch Manning has basically, they ripped his personality out after the AI controversy? He did a press conference. He's, he's a robot now. We're never going to get another quote out of Arch Manning.

• 44:30Speaker 02

  That's, I mean.

• 44:31Speaker 00

  He's never, he's learned his lesson as a Manning. He's like, I'm done ever showing you any personality.

• 44:36Speaker 02

  Yeah. Well, you, you guys have officially beaten me down. I'm not going to pull my pants down and put my butt cheeks on a trainer anymore. Do any of that funny, wacky Manning stuff.

• 44:44Speaker 00

  Ball sack.

• 44:44Speaker 02

  Ball sack. Was it ball sack?

• 44:45Speaker 00

  I think it was ball sack.

• 44:46Speaker 02

  Okay, allegedly.

• 44:48Speaker 00

  I think it was ball sack.

• 44:48Speaker 02

  Uh, yeah, I mean, this was going to happen eventually. The Mannings were going to get to him and be like, hey, you can't say this stuff. Like if, just keep your mouth shut. People will forget about it and then all state's going to pay you $60 million in about 10 years.

• 44:59Speaker 00

  Yeah, but it's, uh, we're, we're now getting like this weekend. Make sure you're watching college football. We've got, we finally got like the weekend where it feels like there's some big, big games. USC, Oregon, Texas, Tennessee, uh, Ole Miss, Florida. Like there's some big Texas A&M or sorry, uh, Mississippi State, by the way, Camario, he's awesome. He's, when they talk about like, uh, the ball jumping out of, out of your hand, watch him play football. That's what happened.

• 45:28Speaker 02

  Is he, uh, I think he might be the second best quarterback.

• 45:31Speaker 00

  Yeah, he's playing incredible.

• 45:33Speaker 02

  Like he's, he's fun to watch.

• 45:34Speaker 04

  When do they play?

• 45:35Speaker 00

  Uh, who?

• 45:36Speaker 04

  Mississippi State Ole Miss.

• 45:38Speaker 00

  Ooh, that's the end of season. Egg Bowl. I, I do also, I will defend our guy, Brandon. I do think that it sucks that the discourse now with today's college football is if a player's really good on a lesser than team, everyone immediately is like, can't wait to see him play on Ohio State next year.

• 45:56Speaker 04

  It's MLB.

• 45:56Speaker 00

  Yeah, it sucks.

• 45:57Speaker 02

  Can't wait for him to be Yankee.

• 45:58Speaker 00

  Yankee or a Dodger. Yeah.

• 46:00Speaker 02

  Yep.

• 46:00Speaker 00

  It sucks.

• 46:01Speaker 02

  It does. Maybe, maybe, maybe Mississippi State alumni will get together and just say, let's scrounge up every dollar that we have.

• 46:09Speaker 00

  Bring back more cowbell.

• 46:10Speaker 02

  And, and yeah, so do a cowbell drive.

• 46:12Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 46:12Speaker 02

  Sell a limited edition Camario cowbell. All proceeds go to keeping Camario in Starkville next year.

• 46:19Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 46:20Speaker 04

  You touched on it very briefly on Sunday, but I feel like it should get talked about more because it was, I feel like it kind of got swept under the rug, but the, the end of the NC State game.

• 46:29Speaker 00

  Unbelievable.

• 46:30Speaker 04

  Was one of like the most insane endings to a football game I've ever seen in my entire life.

• 46:35Speaker 00

  So I assume a lot of people listening have seen it, but I'll just say it anyway. Uh, NC State was leading all game. They were up 31, 28, I believe. And, uh, they got, Vandy was driving with like two minutes left. NC State got a pick at the goal line. So they have less than two minutes left. All they gotta do is get a first down or run out the clock. They get to a situation where they're on the two yard line. There's six seconds left. They're up three. The, the, all they have to do is take a safety and most likely win the game by punting, doing a safety punt and like, you know, they're going to have to do a lateral play, whatever. The NC State quarterback goes back in the end zone to take the

• 47:18Speaker 00

  safety, doesn't go down and Vandy strips them, falls on the ball, wins the game with one second left, kicks the extra point, wins by four. It was so mind numbingly stupid. I, the, the point, like getting a safety was the right play, but you just have to run out of bounds.

• 47:35Speaker 02

  Not even that. Yes, you can just run out of bounds. You can also hold. You can hold. Everybody on the offensive line can intentionally grab their guy, tackle them in the end zone and it's still going to be a safety. That is the play. We've seen it countless times. Like it's a, it's a smart move to take a safety there. Also cool throne, Greg Shiano. Like, yeah, when it looks like it's time to take a knee.

• 47:59Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 47:59Speaker 02

  Played, played the E and whistle.

• 48:01Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 48:01Speaker 02

  Finally, finally Greg's master plan worked out.

• 48:04Speaker 00

  Just go out of bounds and then punt it. Like do a safety punt, even if it was three seconds left, they're not going to win the game that way.

• 48:11Speaker 02

  He could have taken his helmet off. The quarterback could have ripped his own helmet off and thrown it into the crowd from the end zone. And that would have been the correct play in that situation.

• 48:18Speaker 00

  Or, or just throw the ball from there.

• 48:20Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 48:21Speaker 00

  Like, why didn't he think about throwing it? Just throw it deep.

• 48:24Speaker 02

  Throw it way up in the air.

• 48:25Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 48:27Speaker 03

  Just run. There's a moment where he goes back and then he runs forward.

• 48:31Speaker 00

  I know.

• 48:32Speaker 03

  The moment where you run forward, just go backwards.

• 48:35Speaker 00

  Right.

• 48:35Speaker 03

  How many, it's the only, it's, it's so stupid. It's, it's, they're just kids.

• 48:39Speaker 02

  How many, uh.

• 48:40Speaker 00

  They're just kids.

• 48:40Speaker 02

  How many people watching that game changed the channel after the interception? It was like, well, this one's over.

• 48:46Speaker 00

  Not me. Cause I knew NC State. They do dumb shit.

• 48:49Speaker 02

  They're always capable of finding new innovative ways to break your heart.

• 48:53Speaker 00

  I was watching this and, and I was watching it live because I had NC State and I thought they were going to do the dumb move of trying to punt, which that was on the table of them punting and then Vandy catching, doing a fair catch immediately in field goal range.

• 49:08Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 49:09Speaker 00

  So when they lined up, I was like, oh, they're actually doing the smart thing. Guess, guess what? No, they actually did the dumber thing by not going down. We also.

• 49:18Speaker 02

  It was maybe the dumbest finish. I would say this is maybe second in recent, recent memory behind that was it, uh, Miami, Georgia Tech?

• 49:25Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 49:26Speaker 02

  Where, uh, they just decided to run plays. Christopher Ball decided to run plays at the end of the game for absolutely no reason.

• 49:31Speaker 00

  Yeah. Oh man. So, so brutal. Uh, I also have, uh, I want to read a couple of headlines for you guys. You ready for this? So Oregon's had a tough start to the season. They are one, they were one and one going into week three. Uh, they lose to Oklahoma State. They, they struggled with Boise. They then get Portland State at home. Smash spot. Oregon wins 84 to nothing. Here are the headlines after 84, 84 to nothing by Oregon. This is from the Wall Street Journal. Uh, is it rude to win a football game 84 to nothing? Or am I just soft?

• 50:05Speaker 02

  That's an actual headline. That should have been a poll.

• 50:08Speaker 00

  Yeah. And then the other one was Oregon's cringey blowout of Portland State, a different kind of embarrassing.

• 50:15Speaker 02

  Shame on them.

• 50:16Speaker 00

  Cringey blowout.

• 50:17Speaker 02

  It's a safety issue.

• 50:18Speaker 00

  So Daniel Lennon can't win.

• 50:19Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 50:21Speaker 00

  Well, he loses, yeah, they won, but they lost because it was a cringey blowout.

• 50:24Speaker 02

  It's very cringey. Are you even happy as a Ducks fan? Are you hoping, ultimately you'd rather lose that game?

• 50:29Speaker 00

  Yeah, I, I do.

• 50:31Speaker 02

  Sportsmanship.

• 50:32Speaker 00

  Obviously we, we have DraftKings as a sponsor. I've no, no, uh, shocking news, but I, I love to gamble. But when, uh, this one guy was like, I was like, maybe, maybe we are talking too much about gambling because I saw this one tweet on my algorithm. Some guy was like, this game is rigged. Watch Oregon score a touchdown to ruin my teaser of under 85 and a half. And I was like, dude, there's no way they're thinking about rigging Oregon, Portland State for teasers on totals.

• 51:03Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 51:04Speaker 00

  In college football.

• 51:05Speaker 02

  That's, uh, at that.

• 51:06Speaker 00

  We might be gone too far.

• 51:07Speaker 02

  At that point, you might want to just like have some ego death. You should probably take a heavy dose of psilocybin and just realize that the world is not about you.

• 51:15Speaker 00

  Do you know how hard it would be to, to, to rig a game and, but have to make sure you cover all teasers as well?

• 51:21Speaker 02

  It's perfect crime.

• 51:22Speaker 00

  Just be like, hey, not only are we going to rig this for the spread, but remember there's seven point teasers, 10 point, 13 point. We gotta, we gotta cover all our bases.

• 51:29Speaker 02

  I mean, I didn't want to get into it, but you kind of forced my hand. I, the, the PFTs with the Bucks and the Browns, why did they, why did they delay that football game?

• 51:38Speaker 00

  Oh.

• 51:39Speaker 02

  We never used to delay football games ever before.

• 51:41Speaker 00

  It's true.

• 51:42Speaker 02

  And now we're delaying them all the time. My theory is it's the government because the more football games that they can delay because of weather, the easier they can sell us this climate change stuff and start taking carbon taxes. And oh, you, hey, you think that the weather doesn't impact you? Well, guess what? Uh, Oxford, Mississippi, we're going to have to delay a football game because there's a thunderstorm in the area. Bet you love Democrats now. Give us all your money. That's my theory for why my personal teaser lost.

• 52:05Speaker 00

  I like that.

• 52:06Speaker 02

  Yeah. It goes deeper than you think.

• 52:07Speaker 00

  It goes way deeper. That's very deep.

• 52:10Speaker 02

  Also, um, in the matchup of the Sweeney's, Dabo versus Bill Belichick.

• 52:16Speaker 00

  Mm-hmm.

• 52:18Speaker 02

  That was a tough loss for UNC.

• 52:20Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 52:21Speaker 03

  Real tough.

• 52:21Speaker 00

  Other, that was also a weather delay.

• 52:23Speaker 02

  Also a weather delay.

• 52:24Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 52:24Speaker 02

  Exactly. Real tough. UNC, I don't know if they look good, or it's just like this is the, the new normal with Clemson?

• 52:30Speaker 00

  No, I, I think UNC is very similar to how they were at the back half of last year. They have a good defense.

• 52:37Speaker 02

  Not at the end of the game.

• 52:38Speaker 00

  Well, yeah.

• 52:39Speaker 02

  Like they.

• 52:40Speaker 00

  They were selling out to try to stop the run and the guy should have gone down.

• 52:44Speaker 02

  Yeah. Well, no, I mean, like the, the last, I think it was the last three drives were basically the higher field.

• 52:49Speaker 00

  Yeah. But I mean, there's a weather delay.

• 52:51Speaker 02

  Hmm.

• 52:52Speaker 00

  The weather delay fucked them.

• 52:53Speaker 02

  Yep. The government.

• 52:54Speaker 00

  Yeah, that was a big win for Dabo, which is kind of a sad state of Clemson football that that's a big win.

• 53:00Speaker 02

  He needed that.

• 53:01Speaker 00

  But he needed that bad. Uh.

• 53:03Speaker 02

  Cause I would, I would have loved to just have UNC in the mix later and have them, like, maybe they're going to be the, the ACC championship game.

• 53:10Speaker 00

  Maybe there'll be a spoiler.

• 53:11Speaker 02

  They could be.

• 53:12Speaker 00

  You never know. Yeah. Get ready for this slate though, this weekend. It's going to be sick. Also Texas Tech, Houston was a great game. Texas Tech. Those, both those teams are good. I don't know. It, it's, I guess, good for the big 12 because they didn't, they didn't, uh, take each other, like Houston beating Texas Tech, then Houston losing later. I think that's the hardest game Texas Tech's going to have. So.

• 53:33Speaker 02

  BYU?

• 53:34Speaker 00

  Yeah, they have BYU. I think it's at home. I can't remember. They might actually not have BYU. They have a very easy schedule, I believe, that is like, I think that was, West Virginia, Rich Rod is back, by the way. That was a big win for them. Yeah, no, they don't have BYU. So that was, that was their.

• 53:52Speaker 02

  Okay.

• 53:52Speaker 00

  And they have West Virginia at home. So that was their biggest game of the season. They, you know, passed that test. They should be able to, not cruise, but they, they have an easy road ahead. Okay. Breaking news. Bad breaking news. Hank?

• 54:11Speaker 00

  Sad breaking news. Uh, Jackson Dart, most likely out for the year. That sucks.

• 54:16Speaker 02

  I feel bad for Giants fans.

• 54:18Speaker 00

  Yes.

• 54:18Speaker 02

  Giants fans got the old run around because you had about 10 minutes last night where you were like, oh shit, season's over. This is the worst.

• 54:26Speaker 00

  Yep.

• 54:27Speaker 02

  Life is pain. And then you got the ray of sunshine when you had, number one, the, the sideline reporters and the Adam Scheffler's of the world, reporting might not be that bad.

• 54:36Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 54:37Speaker 02

  Might be back sooner rather than later. Then you had the lip reading experts on the sidelines, looking at the trainer and saying, this might be him saying four to six weeks. And then, uh, today they kind of have to go back on that. So.

• 54:48Speaker 00

  Should be illegal. What, the, the, the course of, you should never have this happen. It should always be the worst and then you get better.

• 54:55Speaker 02

  Yeah. So, um, yeah, the worst, better. That's the way to do it.

• 54:57Speaker 00

  Yep.

• 54:57Speaker 02

  I would agree with that. Now, you should be allowed to sue Adam Scheffler is what I'm getting at.

• 55:02Speaker 00

  Yes.

• 55:02Speaker 02

  Emotional distress, if you're a Giants fan. That's a bunch of bullshit. Um, so feel bad for Giants fans. Jackson Dart, like even as a, a, I'm going to do the, as a commanders fan for them, but they were such a fun team to watch. Like I like, I like watching him play football. It sucks. I hate that he's in the division. Um, but I like watching him play and, and the, the turnaround had a lot of promise. One week you look great and then all of a sudden, uh, things get taken away.

• 55:29Speaker 00

  It's brutal. The Giants have not had a, uh, quarterback start every game in a season since 2018 with Eli. That's insane.

• 55:37Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 55:38Speaker 00

  I, all the, all the, uh, good vibes, everything that was coming after week one, and it's just ripped away. That, it fucking sucks.

• 55:47Speaker 02

  Yeah. Was that the 2015 draft? Jameis Mariota, one, two?

• 55:52Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 55:53Speaker 02

  Back. Yeah.

• 55:53Speaker 00

  Yeah. Both back in the NFC East.

• 55:55Speaker 02

  2015 all over again.

• 55:56Speaker 00

  Um, yeah, brutal. So feel bad for Giants fans.

• 56:00Speaker 02

  I hope it's not an ACL. I hope it's just like, I, I don't know. We're not, again, we're not doctors. So the fact that his foot didn't look planted, gave you reason for hope, but I guess there's other ways that things can tear. I don't know. We don't know what it is yet. I don't think that they even know the extent of everything. And if they do, they're not going to tell anyone.

• 56:18Speaker 00

  No. Um, can I have a, a, a little, uh, point, uh, that was actually pointed out by our good friend, Tom Fornelli, just now he texted me. Uh, can you pull up, uh, and, and we love, we love Schrager, uh, his new show. You can go watch it. Ian Rapport, you can't be reporting news looking like you're.

• 56:37Speaker 02

  Schrager.

• 56:38Speaker 00

  16 year old in high school. Pull up the, there it is. Watch this. Play, play the clip. You can't report season ending news in a T-shirt and a leather jacket.

• 56:50Speaker 03

  T-shirt with a duck on.

• 56:51Speaker 00

  That can't happen.

• 56:52Speaker 02

  Make that jacket, make, make the screen bigger.

• 56:53Speaker 03

  We can't play this clip.

• 56:55Speaker 00

  Yeah, but that can't happen. Do you agree? That cannot happen. You gotta put on something.

• 57:01Speaker 03

  The viewer and the listener is going to be very confused. We cannot show.

• 57:03Speaker 00

  Well, I'll tweet, I'll tweet the clip.

• 57:05Speaker 03

  We're going to get one of these like, oh, all the producers suck at their job. Why can't they put, put this clip in? We can't put this clip.

• 57:10Speaker 02

  Ian Rapport looks like he was out back smoking a cigarette when he got the news. He was like about to hop on his hog and ride away with his old lady. And then he got a text and he's like, ah, better go back on the TV and report this.

• 57:21Speaker 00

  Mm-hmm.

• 57:22Speaker 02

  Now I'm back on to my son's Vayner.

• 57:24Speaker 00

  That's crazy. You gotta, you got, it, season ending, ending injuries need to be reported with a suit and tie.

• 57:32Speaker 03

  I mean, Schrager looks like he's like chilling at a ski lodge.

• 57:34Speaker 00

  Yeah. I, but listen, I, there's got to be decorum i- in this world.

• 57:38Speaker 02

  Ideally, you'd like for it to be like somebody coming to your door and knocking on it, like, and taking their hat off.

• 57:43Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 57:44Speaker 02

  Delivering it to every fan personally, like sit down on your couch.

• 57:47Speaker 00

  Mm-hmm. Uh, the Marines show up and they're like, hey.

• 57:50Speaker 02

  There's a car.

• 57:50Speaker 00

  Jackson Dart.

• 57:51Speaker 02

  You're, you're in your farmhouse and there's a car that you see coming down the road about like a quarter mile away with all the dust kicking up.

• 57:57Speaker 00

  Mm-hmm.

• 57:57Speaker 02

  And then you just go out to the front porch. You open up the door. You see Adam Scheffler step out of the car and you just faint into your rocking chair that's out there.

• 58:04Speaker 00

  And he says, Jackson Dart's out for the year. And you just say, why do I care? I live in Nebraska.

• 58:08Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 58:09Speaker 00

  Yeah. Like, why are you here, Scheffler?

• 58:11Speaker 02

  Who are you?

• 58:11Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 58:12Speaker 02

  I'm, I'm going to shoot you. Um, get off my property.

• 58:15Speaker 00

  Also, other injury news, obviously nowhere near the Jackson Dart. We do feel bad for Giants fans. Like that just sucks. Your, your season

• 58:23Speaker 00

  felt like it was going, everything was going in the right direction. And then to have Jackson Dart, uh, miss the entire year. It's just, it's brutal. It's absolutely brutal. And it feels like they're going to just go back to what they've been doing, which is being like a four to six win team with a couple frisky games mixed in.

• 58:41Speaker 02

  Who knows?

• 58:42Speaker 00

  Like that's a, that just sucks.

• 58:44Speaker 02

  Who knows?

• 58:44Speaker 00

  Max, do you want to say something as an Eagles fan? You feel bad?

• 58:49Speaker 03

  No, I don't feel bad. Um, I, we're getting, we're going to get more Jameis.

• 58:53Speaker 00

  That was so easy to just say you feel bad.

• 58:55Speaker 02

  You feel bad for Giants fans?

• 58:57Speaker 03

  I feel bad. No, I feel bad for Jackson Dart that he's injured.

• 59:00Speaker 00

  Do you feel bad for Giants fans? Okay.

• 59:02Speaker 02

  Is there any Giant fan?

• 59:03Speaker 03

  I don't like to see the play, like that, that hurts his, you know, his, his future is, you know, it's, it's sad for Jackson Dart, not sad for Giants fans.

• 59:11Speaker 02

  I'm sad for Giants fans.

• 59:13Speaker 03

  Lie. That's what, you're just lying.

• 59:15Speaker 02

  Okay.

• 59:16Speaker 03

  I'm sad for Jackson Dart.

• 59:18Speaker 02

  Me too.

• 59:18Speaker 03

  I'm sad for the other players on that team, not the fans.

• 59:20Speaker 02

  So you're sad for the team?

• 59:22Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 59:22Speaker 02

  For the players on the team?

• 59:23Speaker 03

  Correct.

• 59:24Speaker 02

  But no sympathy, whatever for the fans. After all they've been through.

• 59:29Speaker 03

  They've won two Super Bowls.

• 59:31Speaker 02

  That is a valid point.

• 59:32Speaker 00

  Yeah. Good point. Um.

• 59:33Speaker 03

  I don't feel sad. I, I, I did feel sad for you actually, when Jane Daniels got hurt.

• 59:38Speaker 02

  I'm pretty much a player on the team. That's why.

• 59:39Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 59:40Speaker 03

  So all right, maybe.

• 59:41Speaker 02

  Part of the organization.

• 59:42Speaker 00

  Max, other injury news. Are you ready for Case Keenum? Cause you're about to get him, buddy.

• 59:48Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 59:48Speaker 00

  So Tyson Bajent, concussion protocol. Case Keenum. Yeah. There's one notable game that Case Keenum played the Eagles and it didn't go very well. Did not go a lot younger, I would say. But yeah, we're going to go Case Keenum on Monday night. What a, what a fun, fun event.

• 1:00:07Speaker 03

  Ben Johnson though. Ben Johnson.

• 1:00:08Speaker 04

  That's the Michael Pennix, like we, we, we caught Michael Pennix and then we also got Case Keenum.

• 1:00:13Speaker 02

  Yeah, right. This is a, a surprise concussion because I don't think anybody knew that he was hurt, right?

• 1:00:17Speaker 00

  He got hit really hard on that last play.

• 1:00:19Speaker 02

  Okay.

• 1:00:19Speaker 00

  So I think that's what it was from.

• 1:00:21Speaker 02

  Okay.

• 1:00:21Speaker 00

  Uh, the last sack, if you want to pull it up, I believe was what it was. Uh, but yeah, Case Keenum. I, I had a few people be like, this is how I found out Case Keenum was still in the league. It's like, no, Case Keenum, Case Keenum actually, I think his neighbors with Caleb and good friends. Yeah. This is the play. He got slammed.

• 1:00:38Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 1:00:39Speaker 00

  Slammed to the turf.

• 1:00:40Speaker 02

  I, I'm going to try to do one of those analogies about like what to expect with Case Keenum. I think Case Keenum is the Andy Dalton of Cooper rushes.

• 1:00:50Speaker 00

  Okay. Wait, hold on.

• 1:00:52Speaker 03

  He's keeping his Andy Dalton. Andy Dalton is better than Case Keenum.

• 1:00:55Speaker 00

  No, that's not what he's saying. That's not what he's saying. He's the.

• 1:00:58Speaker 02

  He's the Andy Dalton of Cooper rushes.

• 1:01:00Speaker 00

  Oh, I, I think he's, I think he's, I think he's better than that.

• 1:01:05Speaker 02

  What would you put him at?

• 1:01:06Speaker 00

  I think he's like, oh, he's one of the.

• 1:01:09Speaker 02

  Great career.

• 1:01:10Speaker 00

  He's one of the best Cooper rushes. Cause Case Keenum was, did have a like a legitimate good year.

• 1:01:16Speaker 02

  He had.

• 1:01:16Speaker 00

  A couple of years in, in, uh, in Minnesota and then a decent year in Denver, I want to say. Maybe I made that up.

• 1:01:23Speaker 03

  38.

• 1:01:23Speaker 02

  He was our starter going into a season one year.

• 1:01:26Speaker 00

  Yeah. So I think he's better. He's, he's, he might be the Patrick Mahomes of Cooper rushes.

• 1:01:31Speaker 02

  Do you think the Pat, the very best?

• 1:01:33Speaker 00

  Of Cooper rushes?

• 1:01:34Speaker 02

  No, no.

• 1:01:35Speaker 00

  Because Cooper rushes are bad.

• 1:01:36Speaker 02

  Right, right. The Patrick Mahomes of Cooper rushes might be Drew Locke.

• 1:01:40Speaker 00

  But Drew Locke was also a starter.

• 1:01:42Speaker 02

  He slings it.

• 1:01:43Speaker 00

  Like Drew Locke was, I don't know. Cause Case Keenum was kind of like drafted as like a backup, kind of.

• 1:01:52Speaker 02

  Kyle Orton might be the, the Patrick Mahomes of Cooper rushes.

• 1:01:55Speaker 00

  Yeah, but there's, yeah, this is.

• 1:01:57Speaker 03

  I think Nick Foles would be the Patrick Mahomes of Cooper rushes.

• 1:02:00Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 1:02:00Speaker 00

  True.

• 1:02:01Speaker 02

  Okay.

• 1:02:01Speaker 00

  And also he's not, by the way, he's not anymore. Case Keenum.

• 1:02:04Speaker 03

  Tom Brady or Patrick?

• 1:02:06Speaker 00

  Case Keenum's.

• 1:02:07Speaker 02

  I think Tom, Tom, Tom Brady is the Nick Foles of.

• 1:02:11Speaker 03

  Cooper rushes.

• 1:02:11Speaker 02

  Of true bloodsows.

• 1:02:15Speaker 00

  Case Keenum's good year.

• 1:02:17Speaker 02

  Actually make a lot of sense if you think about it.

• 1:02:18Speaker 00

  Yeah. Case Keenum's good year in the NFL was nine years ago. So it's no longer. He might be, he might be the Jack Strand of Cooper rushes at this.

• 1:02:28Speaker 02

  Which is also like a, an improvement.

• 1:02:30Speaker 00

  Maybe.

• 1:02:31Speaker 02

  Maybe.

• 1:02:31Speaker 03

  Or maybe the Philip River of, that, that would be good though. The Philip Rivers of Cooper rushes.

• 1:02:37Speaker 02

  Yeah. Yeah. Cause yeah, journeyman.

• 1:02:39Speaker 03

  And old.

• 1:02:40Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 1:02:40Speaker 03

  I don't think Max.

• 1:02:41Speaker 00

  Is getting what you guys.

• 1:02:42Speaker 02

  It's okay.

• 1:02:43Speaker 03

  I think I'm kinda getting there.

• 1:02:44Speaker 00

  It's kind of, we're trying to get it.

• 1:02:45Speaker 02

  I'm saying yeah and nodding and I'm moving on.

• 1:02:48Speaker 00

  We're there.

• 1:02:48Speaker 03

  No, come on, you can be nice.

• 1:02:50Speaker 02

  You're being nice. I'd be nice, yeah.

• 1:02:52Speaker 03

  I'm feeling weird.

• 1:02:53Speaker 02

  Good point, Max.

• 1:02:53Speaker 00

  We're gonna stream this game, Max. Okay? We'll stream it.

• 1:02:57Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 1:02:58Speaker 00

  Uh, I. Case Keenum. In week three is, that's, you never wanna be Case Keenum, you never wanna hit the Case Keenum button in week three.

• 1:03:05Speaker 02

  It's a little early in the day to be drinking all that Case Keenum.

• 1:03:07Speaker 00

  Way too, yeah, you need to, the doctor needs to prescribe you Case Keenum.

• 1:03:12Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 1:03:13Speaker 00

  You can't just be getting Case Keenum off the shelf.

• 1:03:15Speaker 02

  Let's wait till we get off work before we start casing.

• 1:03:18Speaker 00

  Yeah. Okay.

• 1:03:19Speaker 03

  Also, Caleb Williams, Caleb Williams two to four. We talked, we talked about that.

• 1:03:23Speaker 00

  We did.

• 1:03:23Speaker 03

  Yeah, we didn't.

• 1:03:24Speaker 00

  Two to four. Yeah, we, so we're actually taping this like three hours after we, we talked about everything. So is verified two to four?

• 1:03:33Speaker 02

  That's the timeframe.

• 1:03:33Speaker 00

  Generally, I still feel like we don't have a real answer.

• 1:03:36Speaker 02

  We don't.

• 1:03:37Speaker 03

  That's from Ra- Ra- before.

• 1:03:38Speaker 00

  Certainly seems like Caleb Williams unlikely to start this week and next week. We will see two to four weeks generally diagnosis for these kind of hamstring injuries.

• 1:03:45Speaker 02

  Yeah, not really.

• 1:03:46Speaker 00

  Which are pretty severe hamstring injuries.

• 1:03:47Speaker 02

  Not really.

• 1:03:48Speaker 00

  Two to four weeks, Hank, what'd you say?

• 1:03:49Speaker 02

  Super severe.

• 1:03:50Speaker 00

  Su- I mean. Two to four weeks is. What's the, a cicada's life is what, three weeks?

• 1:03:58Speaker 02

  Yeah, and when you think about a fruit fly, this is. Probably like thousands of fruit fly lives.

• 1:04:04Speaker 00

  So Caleb Williams got the death sentence for cicadas.

• 1:04:06Speaker 02

  I'd say for at least like 10,000 fruit flies.

• 1:04:10Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 1:04:10Speaker 02

  And in time, like.

• 1:04:11Speaker 00

  Just put it in perspective, folks.

• 1:04:12Speaker 02

  Civilization of flies.

• 1:04:13Speaker 00

  Next time you make a joke, just stop yourself and say, what if, what if Caleb Williams is a fruit fly?

• 1:04:18Speaker 02

  It'd be tough.

• 1:04:19Speaker 00

  And then be like, wait, why did I ask myself that? What did these fucking guys say?

• 1:04:23Speaker 02

  Hmm.

• 1:04:24Speaker 00

All right, Hank.

• 1:04:47Speaker 04

  Uh, my hot seat is. AI videos. Believing AI videos.

• 1:04:54Speaker 02

  Yeah, you've believed in a couple recently.

• 1:04:55Speaker 04

  Yeah, we already doxed my age, so I think that might just be an age thing, old, old eyes. But, uh, yeah, there was the video of. Jane Daniels teammates running away even though Marcus Mariota stayed. People are saying like if.

• 1:05:06Speaker 02

  I'm glad we're.

• 1:05:07Speaker 04

  Some people are like, if it was halftime. Wouldn't that mean they had time to watch to make sure he was good?

• 1:05:12Speaker 02

  No, it means they're all leaving the field at that time. At halftime.

• 1:05:15Speaker 04

  But it's like, all right, we, we were, it's a break. Let's just make sure our quarterback, our franchise quarterback, our captain is, is able, like.

• 1:05:21Speaker 02

  Halftime is free time.

• 1:05:23Speaker 04

  Got it.

• 1:05:23Speaker 02

  You can do whatever you want.

• 1:05:24Speaker 04

  Right, so they.

• 1:05:24Speaker 02

  If you wanna stay on.

• 1:05:25Speaker 04

  Do whatever you want.

• 1:05:26Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 1:05:26Speaker 04

  Right, so they could have stayed.

• 1:05:28Speaker 02

  Most coaches give you that option. Like if you'd like to sit on the bench by yourself, read a book, that's cool.

• 1:05:33Speaker 04

  But they were like, we, if you, so if you wanna stay and watch your quarterback, that's cool, but. They were like, nah, let's go to the locker room and like. Eat a, eat a orange.

• 1:05:41Speaker 02

  Yeah. That's what they do. Yeah. Dan Quinn passes out tangerines, actually.

• 1:05:45Speaker 00

  Uh huh. You're being very ugly, Hank.

• 1:05:47Speaker 02

  And the barrel drinks.

• 1:05:47Speaker 00

  You've been very ugly.

• 1:05:48Speaker 04

  But regardless, that, that was not my point. That was not my point. Uh, there was another.

• 1:05:53Speaker 02

  You are, this is a misstep because I, the thing I, I am not concerned about at all is that his teammates like him.

• 1:05:58Speaker 04

  I, me too. I, I trust, I like.

• 1:06:00Speaker 00

  And also remember, PFT says he's gonna, he's gonna spend all his time trolling you.

• 1:06:03Speaker 04

  You are my guiding light in this situation and then.

• 1:06:06Speaker 02

  Well, I've thought about that more, Big Cat. I, I don't think, you know, as a 41 year old man, that's not. I don't have time to be, I, I don't have time to waste trolling.

• 1:06:14Speaker 00

  A 33 year old man.

• 1:06:15Speaker 02

  Boy.

• 1:06:16Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 1:06:17Speaker 04

  Uh, but there was another video circulating today of LeBron James, uh, in like a preseason workout, just bricking shot after shot after shot after shot.

• 1:06:27Speaker 00

  AI?

• 1:06:29Speaker 04

  I think so. You guys, you guys watching and you tell me.

• 1:06:32Speaker 00

  You say me, you be the judge.

• 1:06:34Speaker 04

  I genuinely like, that's where like I'm, I'm a little, you know, skeptical.

• 1:06:37Speaker 02

  Max, can you bring it up? I noticed you didn't look this one up.

• 1:06:40Speaker 00

  You have Miami, Georgia Tech.

• 1:06:42Speaker 03

  Well, we were talking about Miami, Georgia.

• 1:06:43Speaker 00

  Yeah, we were.

• 1:06:47Speaker 00

  Are you gonna?

• 1:06:48Speaker 04

  I, I sent it if Max can't, you know, walk in and find it.

• 1:06:52Speaker 03

  Where'd you send it?

• 1:06:53Speaker 04

  I've got it. I texted the group.

• 1:06:54Speaker 02

  I've got a Browns fan.

• 1:06:55Speaker 04

  We can just type in LeBron brick.

• 1:06:57Speaker 00

  Oh yeah, I saw that guy.

• 1:06:59Speaker 02

  Wait, which one?

• 1:06:59Speaker 00

  Who, did you, the guy who tweeted us or no?

• 1:07:02Speaker 02

  No, the different guy.

• 1:07:03Speaker 00

  Okay.

• 1:07:03Speaker 02

  Different guy. I think his name is like number one Cleveland Browns fan.

• 1:07:07Speaker 00

  Okay.

• 1:07:08Speaker 02

  Which is a great.

• 1:07:08Speaker 00

  Oh, that was brick.

• 1:07:10Speaker 02

  Okay, let's see what he's doing here.

• 1:07:11Speaker 00

  Brick.

• 1:07:12Speaker 02

  That's a tough shot, running.

• 1:07:14Speaker 03

  This is sad, what you guys are doing.

• 1:07:16Speaker 00

  No, it's a tough shot.

• 1:07:16Speaker 03

  I'm not doing it. Sad.

• 1:07:19Speaker 02

  That's from half court, a little heat check there.

• 1:07:21Speaker 03

  That actually makes, you're terrified if you're looking up LeBron practice videos for.

• 1:07:26Speaker 04

  I'm not looking these up. These are flooding my timeline.

• 1:07:29Speaker 03

  Flooding.

• 1:07:30Speaker 02

  He's had a double flood, if you've been paying attention, like, that's hard to have two.

• 1:07:33Speaker 04

  It's hurricane season.

• 1:07:35Speaker 00

  It's, it's cra- Hank has recently been stricken with, uh, inability to tell what's AI and what's not. So he's just asking us for help.

• 1:07:43Speaker 02

  Cause you, you used to be really.

• 1:07:44Speaker 04

  Like, did you see the video of Trump and Vladimir Putin rapping together? That was, that wasn't real.

• 1:07:49Speaker 00

  Oh, really?

• 1:07:49Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 1:07:50Speaker 00

  But these videos, you're like, they might be real.

• 1:07:53Speaker 04

  This one looks so real, but it's LeBron. So it's like, there's no way he's throwing up this many bricks against absolute nobodies.

• 1:07:59Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 1:07:59Speaker 03

  Hmm, sure.

• 1:08:01Speaker 04

  Right?

• 1:08:03Speaker 03

  Yep.

• 1:08:03Speaker 02

  It is kinda crazy.

• 1:08:04Speaker 03

  Crazy.

• 1:08:04Speaker 04

  Oh, well, you just threw the ball out of there. This, this looks like our Friday, Friday afternoon pickup games.

• 1:08:09Speaker 02

  Does look like, you know.

• 1:08:10Speaker 03

  He definitely sucks.

• 1:08:11Speaker 02

  Father time is undefeated.

• 1:08:12Speaker 03

  Yeah, for sure. It's coming right now.

• 1:08:15Speaker 00

  For who?

• 1:08:16Speaker 03

  It's come for LeBron. Yeah, I mean, we're talking about high, high school gym practice videos?

• 1:08:21Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 1:08:22Speaker 03

  That's a, that's a telltale sign.

• 1:08:24Speaker 02

  First thing you, you.

• 1:08:25Speaker 03

  He stinks.

• 1:08:26Speaker 02

  First thing that you lose is your ability to hit.

• 1:08:28Speaker 03

  We may as well just cancel the season. You're telling me that we have practice videos at a high school gym?

• 1:08:33Speaker 04

  Might not be real.

• 1:08:34Speaker 03

  Oh, yeah. We're watching full tape right now.

• 1:08:37Speaker 00

  Well, I like that. Oh, yeah.

• 1:08:39Speaker 02

  Yeah, you don't watch tape.

• 1:08:40Speaker 00

  Oh, yeah.

• 1:08:41Speaker 03

  Cancel the season, LeBron's done. Celtics. Champions, I guess. Paul George, he's young, right?

• 1:08:48Speaker 04

  Yeah, he's got it. Him and a great hairline. Uh.

• 1:08:53Speaker 04

  Jalen Brown fencing, those, those are cool clips. He's in France like practicing fencing.

• 1:08:58Speaker 02

  Is he really?

• 1:08:58Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 1:08:59Speaker 00

  That's not your guy anymore. He's sword fighting.

• 1:09:00Speaker 04

  I know, I miss him though. I mean, I miss him. It's cool.

• 1:09:03Speaker 02

  Why is he practicing fencing?

• 1:09:04Speaker 04

  Cause he's Jalen Brown. He's a, he's a eclectic guy.

• 1:09:06Speaker 02

  Should be practicing defense.

• 1:09:10Speaker 04

  Uh, and then my cool throne is flatulence, uh, national sports show. Nationals. Sports pod.

• 1:09:18Speaker 03

  You are the fart guy.

• 1:09:19Speaker 04

  On, on national sports television today, I saw a segment, I woke up, turned on my TV, was watching Fox Sports One. And saw Saints quarterback Tyler Shuck talking about how.

• 1:09:29Speaker 00

  Guy.

• 1:09:30Speaker 04

  My fart in the off season. What did he say? Sent waves through the locker room?

• 1:09:36Speaker 00

  Shock waves through the locker room.

• 1:09:38Speaker 04

  He sent shock waves through the locker room.

• 1:09:38Speaker 02

  Was he talking about the Saints locker room or the Pelicans locker room because they.

• 1:09:42Speaker 04

  I don't understand why this is, I was wearing the.

• 1:09:46Speaker 00

  I said that on the show. It's like, well, it was close to the Pelicans facility.

• 1:09:51Speaker 04

  I said that because I was explaining why I was wearing that dumb ass hat.

• 1:09:54Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 1:09:55Speaker 04

  And it was because.

• 1:09:57Speaker 02

  Your initial.

• 1:09:57Speaker 04

  The Pelicans.

• 1:09:58Speaker 02

  Your initial explanation for why you farted was they shared a team facility.

• 1:10:03Speaker 04

  They do, and that's why I was wearing the hat. And that's why the clip was embarrassing. Not because of the, the, the, the, like.

• 1:10:09Speaker 02

  The fart.

• 1:10:10Speaker 04

  Echo chair, but because I was wearing the hat, which is because the facility was connected to the Saints facility.

• 1:10:17Speaker 02

  But yeah.

• 1:10:17Speaker 04

  But either way, like.

• 1:10:19Speaker 00

  Echo chair.

• 1:10:20Speaker 04

  You know, it could have been considered a bad moment. I never thought about it that way, and it's clearly inspiring our guy Shuck, so.

• 1:10:26Speaker 00

  No, I don't think he said, I don't think he said the word inspiration. Definitely didn't say inspiration.

• 1:10:33Speaker 03

  He may have.

• 1:10:34Speaker 00

  No, I think he, I think he might've said the, the first halves have been, the first half of the first game was bad because of Hank's fart.

• 1:10:40Speaker 04

  I don't think he said that.

• 1:10:41Speaker 03

  I'm pro the fart being the difference maker for Shuck.

• 1:10:45Speaker 00

  Also, Shuck did say, uh, Kellen Moore gave out more game balls in meetings, uh, on Monday when they watched the tape.

• 1:10:52Speaker 02

  Okay, love that. So more than six total. Did he say how many?

• 1:10:55Speaker 00

  He said the big guys got a bunch.

• 1:10:57Speaker 02

  Every offensive lineman, I like that.

• 1:10:58Speaker 00

  So I, I, I was happy because that was my first question. I was like, dude, what happened? Only six game balls? He's like, no, he, he went back for more.

• 1:11:04Speaker 02

  We gotta get those numbers up.

• 1:11:05Speaker 03

  My first question was about Hank's fart.

• 1:11:07Speaker 02

  Yeah, good, good.

• 1:11:07Speaker 00

  It's a good question.

• 1:11:08Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 1:11:09Speaker 00

  Really good question. Okay, PFT?

• 1:11:12Speaker 04

  You said government name too. That was crazy.

• 1:11:14Speaker 00

  What?

• 1:11:15Speaker 04

  It's a hundred and awkward.

• 1:11:16Speaker 03

  Well, yeah, you're a journalist.

• 1:11:17Speaker 00

  33 year old.

• 1:11:18Speaker 04

  Yeah, chill. 181.

• 1:11:21Speaker 02

  Wait, what, what did you, what would you like him to call you? If he's listening.

• 1:11:25Speaker 04

  Well, I don't call him Christopher. I would've said, hey, Christopher at the one day.

• 1:11:29Speaker 03

  But then he followed, I, I also noticed he followed up with a Hank.

• 1:11:32Speaker 04

  Right.

• 1:11:33Speaker 03

  Which was good.

• 1:11:34Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 1:11:34Speaker 03

  That means he was, he was very aware of, of your prowess in that.

• 1:11:37Speaker 04

  Yeah, he respects, he respects HIPAA.

• 1:11:41Speaker 02

  Okay, so just for future reference, I'm never to refer to you as Henry again.

• 1:11:45Speaker 04

  You can, but again, like, I'm not gonna call you the E word.

• 1:11:48Speaker 02

  Thank you.

• 1:11:49Speaker 04

  I could, but out of respect for HIPAA, I don't.

• 1:11:53Speaker 02

  Okay.

• 1:11:54Speaker 00

  Jerry's the only one who's got the E pass.

• 1:11:55Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 1:11:55Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 1:11:56Speaker 02

  Dan Campbell.

• 1:11:56Speaker 04

  Dan Campbell, too.

• 1:11:57Speaker 00

  Dan Campbell.

• 1:12:00Speaker 02

  Uh, my hot seat is Mike McCarthy, head coach of the Steelers.

• 1:12:03Speaker 00

  Okay.

• 1:12:03Speaker 02

  A lot of people are saying the Steelers offense looks a lot like it did last year and the year before that, and the year before that, and the year before that.

• 1:12:10Speaker 00

  We're, we're people, we're, we're part of that.

• 1:12:13Speaker 02

  Yeah, we have said that.

• 1:12:13Speaker 00

  Yeah, yeah.

• 1:12:14Speaker 02

  So, yeah, when I say that, a lot of people, I, I do include this room because it does, if we're being honest.

• 1:12:19Speaker 00

  Hundred percent.

• 1:12:20Speaker 02

  But, uh, Mike McCarthy is not on the hot seat for that. It's because it feels like Aaron Rodgers is exercising almost too much accountability for himself. And I think he has to get his quarterback in line and be like, hey, man, you can't take everything.

• 1:12:34Speaker 00

  Yep.

• 1:12:34Speaker 02

  All the blame on your shoulders. You need to spread that around a little bit. We're a team here. So Aaron Rodgers, after the game, um, he said, "The best teams are player-led teams. We have to keep taking ownership. In a game like today, there wasn't a lot of flow to it. We need to be better, and it starts with me." That's really mature by Aaron Rodgers.

• 1:12:51Speaker 00

  That's really, really mature.

• 1:12:53Speaker 02

  He says, "It starts with me at making sure Mike McCarthy knows what's working, what's not working, and that our coaches know, so we can all feel like we have a better chance." So this is a great job by Aaron Rodgers, taking full responsibility, that he needs to do a better job of educating his coaches of what plays they're calling and which ones suck.

• 1:13:13Speaker 00

  Yes, that's good accountability.

• 1:13:15Speaker 02

  It's really good accountability.

• 1:13:16Speaker 00

  Really good accountability.

• 1:13:17Speaker 02

  And I think there's a big step forward for the team. I'm looking for the Steelers to bounce back this week.

• 1:13:20Speaker 00

  What a leader.

• 1:13:21Speaker 02

  Big leader.

• 1:13:22Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 1:13:22Speaker 02

  Uh, my cool throne is gonna be James Madison, and it's not because necessarily we have a 19% chance of making the college football playoff again this year.

• 1:13:30Speaker 00

  Oh, hell, yeah.

• 1:13:30Speaker 02

  It's more the fact that I thought, looking at the rest of our schedule, what that's going to have to mean for me for the rest of the season, which is going to be a lot of talk about how easy our schedule is.

• 1:13:42Speaker 00

  Mm-hmm.

• 1:13:43Speaker 02

  And I would never attack a team for playing an easy schedule. Like, if you get your wins, that's, you deserve every advantage that you have in the playoffs.

• 1:13:51Speaker 00

  And if someone were to find you attacking an easy schedule, you could simply just say, "Well, that was old me."

• 1:13:56Speaker 02

  If, yeah, yeah, that's.

• 1:13:57Speaker 00

  I'm 41 now.

• 1:13:59Speaker 02

  And I moved on and evolved, and it sounds like you're part of the Barstoolification of the universe.

• 1:14:02Speaker 00

  Yeah, I'd agree with you.

• 1:14:03Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 1:14:04Speaker 00

  You can't be held accountable for things in the past.

• 1:14:06Speaker 02

  Right. So, uh.

• 1:14:07Speaker 00

  That's crazy.

• 1:14:08Speaker 02

  That's crazy.

• 1:14:08Speaker 00

  Live with me here now.

• 1:14:09Speaker 02

  Yeah, I'm, I'm currently not committing any crimes, so I don't know what your problem is.

• 1:14:13Speaker 03

  Mm-hmm. Also, Virginia Tech's fault.

• 1:14:15Speaker 02

  Also, Virginia Tech's fault for sucking.

• 1:14:17Speaker 00

  Virginia Tech's fault.

• 1:14:17Speaker 02

  And Jamie, so I, I looked at the numbers.

• 1:14:20Speaker 03

  Wait, no. Virginia Tech, because they canceled the game.

• 1:14:22Speaker 00

  You canceled the game, you don't play them.

• 1:14:23Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 1:14:24Speaker 03

  You were supposed to play Virginia Tech, but Virginia Tech canceled.

• 1:14:26Speaker 02

  I'm aware. This, this happened against multiple.

• 1:14:28Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 1:14:29Speaker 02

  Uh, power conference members where they just cancel games against JMU, so we can't play a hard schedule anymore. But the stat is, we're 23-0 against the state of Virginia and, since 2015. And we got another one coming up this weekend against ODU. But I thought more about what that's going to look like at the end of the season. It would be great to make the playoff again, like, twice in a row as a, a, a little bitty school that used to be FCS. Um, but then, what would that look like? It's like every year we make the college football playoff and we get our asses kicked. And that doesn't seem like a great, like, and what, what, Max?

• 1:15:01Speaker 03

  I feel like that seems like the best-case scenario for you right now.

• 1:15:03Speaker 02

  I, I know. That's what I'm saying. That's a very weird best-case scenario to be in, is to make the college football playoff, go up against, like, the third-best team in the country, and then hopefully cover a 21-point spread. And that's kind of, that's a weird place to have that be the ultimate goal for your season. Uh, but anyways, you play who's in front of you. I'm just, I'm excited that JMU's back in the conversation, a little bit trepidatious of what that's gonna mean when you get there.

• 1:15:27Speaker 00

  Yeah. Hell, yes. Uh, all right. My hot seats, I don't really have a hot seat. I have a cool throne. Uh,

• 1:15:37Speaker 00

  yeah, we've talked about everything. My hot seat is anyone who made fun of Caleb. I'll just say that.

• 1:15:43Speaker 02

  All right.

• 1:15:43Speaker 00

  My cool throne is, uh, Deshaun Watson, because Todd Monkin said that he's, uh, a young player that is going to continue to grow.

• 1:15:51Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 1:15:52Speaker 00

  31 years old.

• 1:15:53Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 1:15:54Speaker 00

  He's older than Patrick Mahomes, Josh Allen, Joe Burrow, Lamar Jackson, and the Ravens' offensive coordinator. He's a young player that's continued to grow.

• 1:16:01Speaker 02

  I'm a little concerned about what parts of him are going to continue to grow.

• 1:16:04Speaker 00

  Young player continue to grow.

• 1:16:05Speaker 02

  That's, um, yeah, it's, well, sometimes coaches just get up in front of the media and they're verbally just hitting the fast-forward button to get them out from doing more media.

• 1:16:15Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 1:16:15Speaker 02

  It's like, let's just get to the end of this practice. I'm gonna say words that I've heard other coaches say before, and hopefully you won't follow up, and then I can go back to doing my job.

• 1:16:22Speaker 00

  Yes, yes. Young Deshaun Watson.

• 1:16:26Speaker 02

  Ideally, young Deshaun Watson was a great player.

• 1:16:29Speaker 00

  31-year-old, does that make Hank old at 33?

• 1:16:32Speaker 02

  Yeah, for a quarterback, yes.

• 1:16:33Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 1:16:34Speaker 02

  Unless you're Tom Brady.

• 1:16:36Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 1:16:36Speaker 04

  Or Trent D'Amelio.

• 1:16:37Speaker 02

  That makes you young.

• 1:16:38Speaker 00

  Or in Rogers.

• 1:16:39Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 1:16:39Speaker 00

  Taking accountability.

• 1:16:40Speaker 02

  Mm-hmm.

• 1:16:42Speaker 00

  All right, hot seat, cool throne, Zach.

• 1:16:45Speaker 04

  My, uh, hot seat this week is gonna be Miracle Drugs, uh, because we may be at the end of the line when it comes to GLP-1s, boys. You see all the lawsuits that came out this morning?

• 1:16:52Speaker 00

  No.

• 1:16:52Speaker 04

  Uh, all GLP-1s are apparently making people blind.

• 1:16:56Speaker 00

  Ooh.

• 1:16:57Speaker 04

  Are you guys familiar with?

• 1:16:58Speaker 00

  But are they still skinny?

• 1:17:00Speaker 04

  Uh, I don't, one, 99, 999 of them out of a 10,000 maybe, but also blind. But if.

• 1:17:06Speaker 00

  Fat and can see, blind and skinny.

• 1:17:08Speaker 04

  So skinny, maybe can't see yourself skinny, though, so still fat.

• 1:17:12Speaker 02

  But then you can't find the food.

• 1:17:13Speaker 03

  My eyes are working pretty well. I haven't taken them as.

• 1:17:16Speaker 04

  Yeah, I feel like you took them like once a year.

• 1:17:18Speaker 03

  I gotta, I gotta, I gotta get back.

• 1:17:21Speaker 00

  Oh, you haven't been taking them?

• 1:17:23Speaker 03

  I've taken them.

• 1:17:24Speaker 04

  What's the most consistent you ever wore with taking them?

• 1:17:26Speaker 02

  Wedding season?

• 1:17:27Speaker 03

  No, before the wedding, I, I was taking them pretty consistently.

• 1:17:29Speaker 00

  Is it something, usually drugs, aren't you supposed to, like, when you get sick and they give you antibiotics, you're supposed to take them every day until you're better?

• 1:17:37Speaker 03

  Well, it's supposed to be once a week.

• 1:17:39Speaker 00

  And so you just sort of like, you know what?

• 1:17:40Speaker 03

  I've taken a couple of weeks off.

• 1:17:41Speaker 00

  Like, every drug, I'm just gonna, I'm gonna do it whenever I want?

• 1:17:44Speaker 03

  No.

• 1:17:45Speaker 00

  Okay.

• 1:17:46Speaker 03

  Sometimes you, uh, you forget.

• 1:17:47Speaker 02

  You're taking recreational GLP-1?

• 1:17:49Speaker 03

  No, no, no. I gotta get back, I gotta get back into the system.

• 1:17:52Speaker 00

  When you feel like it, okay?

• 1:17:54Speaker 03

  No, I gotta get back into the system.

• 1:17:55Speaker 00

  But you can see.

• 1:17:56Speaker 03

  Yeah, eyes are good. Eyes are good.

• 1:17:58Speaker 00

  How many people are blind?

• 1:17:59Speaker 04

  So they're saying right now, uh, 1 in 10,000 probably get it.

• 1:18:03Speaker 02

  And it's, uh.

• 1:18:03Speaker 00

  I think those odds are fine if you're trying to get skinny.

• 1:18:06Speaker 02

  Is it permanent?

• 1:18:07Speaker 04

  They said, yeah, so it's, uh,

• 1:18:10Speaker 04

  not, not permanent. Definitely permanent. It's anteretic.

• 1:18:13Speaker 02

  Wait, what?

• 1:18:14Speaker 04

  Interior, so it is permanent blindness. Like, it leads to, like, it's not like, oh, I couldn't see for, like, two days, but now I'm back. Uh, they call anteretic Ish medic optic neuropathy.

• 1:18:24Speaker 02

  Mm-hmm. Okay.

• 1:18:25Speaker 04

  And it, uh, leads to rapid and permanent vision loss. So, we thought we were in a good spot, but back to square one.

• 1:18:33Speaker 02

  Mm-hmm. I thought that this time, the miracle drug that made everybody lose weight and get skinny was gonna come with no side effects.

• 1:18:38Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 1:18:38Speaker 04

  They made it seem hot, like, we got all the commercials, we got, we got great guys on, you know, Shaq and, uh, everybody making it seem like a good idea, but.

• 1:18:45Speaker 02

  Yeah, Shaq wouldn't put his name behind it, uh, inferior product.

• 1:18:47Speaker 00

  What's the number, what's, if I, if I said to you.

• 1:18:51Speaker 02

  Well, Max, Max is upset.

• 1:18:53Speaker 03

  I feel like 1 in 10,000, every single drug has some sort of side effect.

• 1:18:58Speaker 02

  That was Hank doing his Max impression.

• 1:18:59Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 1:18:59Speaker 02

  That's pretty good.

• 1:19:00Speaker 03

  No, that was, that was, that was honestly a fair.

• 1:19:02Speaker 00

  What, uh, what, what would the number be for you to not do? So, like, if I told you there's a miracle drug that gives you endless energy, makes you look hot, but

• 1:19:13Speaker 00

  100 out of, uh, or, or maybe 1,000 out of 10,000, you die?

• 1:19:19Speaker 03

  I need to, I need to go 1, 1 out of, 1,000 out of 10,000 would be 1 out.

• 1:19:24Speaker 00

  That's 1 out of 10.

• 1:19:25Speaker 03

  No, it's not. Oh, yes, it is.

• 1:19:27Speaker 00

  It is. Sorry, I didn't know you needed me to reduce the fraction.

• 1:19:31Speaker 03

  Everyone, you're always supposed to reduce the fraction.

• 1:19:33Speaker 00

  Okay. Sorry, I didn't reduce the fraction. 1 out of 10.

• 1:19:37Speaker 00

  10 out of 100.

• 1:19:38Speaker 03

  1 out of 10 is too many.

• 1:19:39Speaker 00

  Too many.

• 1:19:39Speaker 02

  What about 10 out of 100?

• 1:19:41Speaker 03

  That.

• 1:19:41Speaker 02

  That actually sounds bad.

• 1:19:42Speaker 03

  That's also 1 out of 10.

• 1:19:44Speaker 00

  All right, what about

• 1:19:46Speaker 00

  3 out of 100?

• 1:19:47Speaker 03

  1 out of, 1 out of 100

• 1:19:51Speaker 03

  is where you start to have the conversation.

• 1:19:54Speaker 03

  1%.

• 1:19:55Speaker 00

  Yeah, 1% is enough.

• 1:19:56Speaker 03

  1% is enough.

• 1:19:58Speaker 00

  We're fine.

• 1:19:58Speaker 03

  That's what I'm saying. I'm, I'm still considering it 1 out of 100, 1 out of 10,000.

• 1:20:03Speaker 00

  Easy.

• 1:20:04Speaker 02

  Yeah, I mean, it.

• 1:20:05Speaker 03

  It'd be a real shame if I got.

• 1:20:06Speaker 00

  It is funny, though, to think about, like, how our brain works. Like, what's the number, if they're like, hey, this thing will, will fix everything, but

• 1:20:14Speaker 03

  all the.

• 1:20:14Speaker 00

  1 out of, 1 out of every 20 people die. Are you, you're like, hmm, am I, am I good? Am I 19 or am I 1?

• 1:20:24Speaker 02

  Uh, ultimately, this, I think it does a lot of good. Like, a lot of people losing weight that really need to lose weight. Probably, probably extending a lot of lives out there.

• 1:20:33Speaker 04

  Definitely, certainly, but like, blindness?

• 1:20:36Speaker 02

  Blindness is, that's a tough side effect.

• 1:20:37Speaker 03

  1 out of 10,000?

• 1:20:40Speaker 04

  I might be down to go blind if I was born.

• 1:20:41Speaker 05

  Blind, but I think becoming blind has to be way worse because you know you're missing.

• 1:20:45Speaker 03

  You're also one one paranoia guy.

• 1:20:47Speaker 00

  That's true.

• 1:20:48Speaker 02

  Uh, Zach, I disagree with that, though. I know what you're saying, but I think if you have some frame of reference to how the world works and then you go blind, yeah, you know what you're missing, but at least you understand like conceptually what things are.

• 1:20:58Speaker 05

  Oh, that's fair. That makes a lot of sense, actually. Okay.

• 1:21:01Speaker 02

  I think that this is a worse headline than if it was like one out of 10,000, 10,000 people die.

• 1:21:06Speaker 05

  Definitely. Okay. Yep.

• 1:21:07Speaker 02

  Like just in terms of like shock headlines. If it says one out of 10,000 people go permanently blind for the rest of your life, people are like, oh shit, like that shocks you a little bit.

• 1:21:16Speaker 05

  They said they were, they're flood a zone with lawsuits today, so I wasn't sure.

• 1:21:19Speaker 00

  Also, not to be like super woke, but I assume all of these headlines are just, uh, the drug companies fighting against the food industry. And they're just playing it out online.

• 1:21:32Speaker 02

  And sometimes.

• 1:21:32Speaker 00

  So then we'll get another one in a couple of weeks. It's like there are no side effects for GLP ones, and they're actually a miracle drug. And then the food industry will come back and say, actually, you diarrhea out of your asshole and die. And then we just have to decipher which one, like the, the people, that, that's just all this stuff is.

• 1:21:51Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 1:21:51Speaker 05

  That's true. They might've just got me with the blindness.

• 1:21:53Speaker 00

  Big company, the, the big, big food and big drug having a nice old dust up in the streets of the internet. And we just, we're, we're the ones to suffer from all of it.

• 1:22:04Speaker 02

  And then meeting behind the scenes with a negotiator being like, guys, if we can come to an understanding, everybody can eat.

• 1:22:09Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 1:22:10Speaker 02

  There's, there's room to go around. We just got to compromise. You, you need to, it's like a mob meeting. You can sit down behind the scenes. Like you need to go 10% softer on the accusations of blindness and you need to pull aside like some of your most potent drugs that are making people not eat Cheetos.

• 1:22:25Speaker 00

  Yeah. Lobbyist is going to get involved and we're going to nerf the GLP ones. And then the GLP one, the drug companies are going to get like stock options in, in big food.

• 1:22:35Speaker 02

  Yeah. Sir, for your, for your service.

• 1:22:37Speaker 00

  And the losers will be us again.

• 1:22:39Speaker 02

  A lifetime supply of Twinkies, sir, for your dedication to public health.

• 1:22:42Speaker 05

  Oh, so it's like keep America fat, but you guys can get a piece?

• 1:22:45Speaker 00

  Yeah, right. Exactly. That's how all of this works.

• 1:22:49Speaker 05

  Then my cool thing this week is going to be Activision because we're finally hammering down on guys virtually cheating. Recently, they came out that cheating in video games is $8.5 billion in industry annually, and we're finally taking a stand.

• 1:23:01Speaker 02

  Okay, how?

• 1:23:02Speaker 05

  Uh, all right. So they, they shut down like.

• 1:23:03Speaker 02

  You sign a pledge?

• 1:23:04Speaker 05

  365 major cheating operations.

• 1:23:07Speaker 02

  Okay.

• 1:23:08Speaker 05

  Sent out roughly 80 cents assists. They're hammering down on the cheaters. It's actually bigger than you think.

• 1:23:14Speaker 00

  Yeah, it's bigger than you think.

• 1:23:16Speaker 05

  Yeah, because the ricochet anti-cheat from Activision historically dog shit, but now they're just arresting guys. Like, all right, if you don't want to play by the virtual terms, take these IRL cuffs.

• 1:23:24Speaker 02

  Wait, are you serious?

• 1:23:26Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 1:23:26Speaker 02

  I'm, I'm kind of okay with that.

• 1:23:28Speaker 05

  Me too. Send them the brink.

• 1:23:30Speaker 02

  The Gulag.

• 1:23:31Speaker 05

  Yes, gone. Not coming back. Don't respond.

• 1:23:33Speaker 02

  Wait, how, how are people actually getting arrested?

• 1:23:35Speaker 05

  Because like it is illegal to sell these, uh, like these cheating subscriptions and these like wall hacks and A-bots and the forever greens and stuff.

• 1:23:42Speaker 06

  Is it illegal to buy them?

• 1:23:44Speaker 05

  Uh, I don't know the answer to that. I would want to say morally, yes, on paper, probably.

• 1:23:50Speaker 06

  But couldn't they just, couldn't they just go to like a country where it's not illegal to sell these? And then just sell them?

• 1:23:57Speaker 02

  You're, you're describing the war on drugs right now.

• 1:24:01Speaker 05

  That is, you can, they probably won't extradite. Yeah. So you probably could go to a different country. I can only speak on domestic soil. What's going down?

• 1:24:08Speaker 06

  So nothing's going to change.

• 1:24:09Speaker 02

  There's going to be cartels. Nothing's going to change. But guess what? What you have to do is you have to eliminate the market for cheaters in the United States.

• 1:24:17Speaker 00

  Joey Greco.

• 1:24:19Speaker 02

  Yeah. Ashley Madison.

• 1:24:21Speaker 05

  That'll never happen though, because that's a moral conflict and guys are going to cheat forever.

• 1:24:25Speaker 02

  Guys are always.

• 1:24:25Speaker 05

  But this is huge. This is actually big.

• 1:24:27Speaker 00

  Did you guys watch that Ashley Madison documentary? It's just like, you're like, yeah, it was 99% dudes just talking to each other.

• 1:24:32Speaker 02

  Yeah. It's great.

• 1:24:34Speaker 00

  It's like you just, you just lost your marriage because you were chatting with a dude online, thinking it was a chick.

• 1:24:41Speaker 02

  What, what chick would sign up for a website where it's like, hey, meet, meet up with a bunch of guys that want to cheat on their wives?

• 1:24:48Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 1:24:48Speaker 02

  Like if girls want to cheat on their husband, I got news for you. They can do it just by like walking outside.

• 1:24:54Speaker 00

  Yeah, exactly.

• 1:24:56Speaker 02

  They actually get further away from computers.

• 1:24:59Speaker 00

  It was, it was a very funny watch. Very funny watch. All right. Uh, any other ones, Zach? Good?

• 1:25:04Speaker 05

  Uh, those, we covered most of everything else. That's all I have for today.

• 1:25:07Speaker 00

  Okay, let's get to our interview. It's awesome interview with Scotty Scheffler. We have Joe Davis in person. Uh, before we do that, PFT.

• 1:25:14Speaker 02

  Before we get to our good friend Scotty Scheffler, live in person, getting ready for the President's Cup. He's brought to you by our great friends over at Reese's. I got my Reese's right here. The Oreo, the Reese's Oreos. So good. Love the Reese's Marshmallows. That is my new favorite. But there's something for everyone when it comes to Reese's. Uh, I like the fast break. I like everything Reese's has ever put out. Reese's Pieces, nothing like some Reese's Pieces and a sundae and, uh, some frozen yogurt. I had some Froyo with Reese's Pieces as the blend in the other day. It's awesome. Doesn't matter if it's, uh, vanilla, chocolate, cookie dough. You put some Reese's Pieces in there and then it becomes an event. Reese's is delicious. Chocolate, peanut butter, all of your favorites. There's no competitor to Reese's. Uh, Reese's is the official candy

• 1:25:59Speaker 02

  partner of Barstool Sports. They do the Reese's Lounge here. I went up there before Thursday Night Football last week, had a couple Reese's, chilled out, great place to hang. Shout out to Reese's, great company, and they're the best. And frankly, they probably don't need to advertise because their product is that good. You know it. You love it.

  Uh, one V one Call of Duty.

• 1:26:41Speaker 02

• 1:27:52Speaker 00

  Okay, we now welcome on a very, very special guest. It is the best golfer on the planet, Scotty Scheffler in person. Is that cool when I say best golfer on the planet? I mean, you are.

• 1:28:04Speaker 06

  I mean, yeah, still, still not, still not quite, quite used to it, but.

• 1:28:07Speaker 00

  Yeah, you, you should be used to it.

• 1:28:09Speaker 06

  Yeah. I'm the best, I'm the best golfer a couple of weeks a year.

• 1:28:12Speaker 00

  Yeah. But you're the best golfer on the planet. We're here, uh, President's Cups here in Chicago this week. Uh, very excited for it. Your third President's Cup?

• 1:28:21Speaker 06

  Third President's.

• 1:28:21Speaker 00

  You're two and O. Uh, is there any pressure knowing like you guys have to win this? You have to win the President's Cup?

• 1:28:27Speaker 06

  I mean, I think anytime you're representing your country, I think you feel the way to that. Like I think sometimes that almost makes it more challenging knowing kind of like what we're representing. Like it's not just playing for your team or playing for your partner. Like we're playing for the country and these tournaments are something that, that kind of everybody can get behind.

• 1:28:42Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 1:28:43Speaker 06

  But like the nerves and the pressure you feel is like, you're doing something that matters. And I think that, that's a really cool feeling.

• 1:28:49Speaker 02

  Is there anything that you do differently in, in the preparation, like team golf as opposed to individual golf? Mentally has to be a lot different, but like this, besides the obvious nature of you don't want to let, you know, let down your teammates. Is there anything different that you do to prepare?

• 1:29:04Speaker 06

  I mean, as far as like the golf stuff, not really, but I think mentally it, it needs to be a little bit different because you know, every week out of the year, I'm doing my own thing pretty much all the time. Like, and if I let myself down, that's, that's okay. Like it's a lot easier letting myself down. And then when you're standing there with your partner, I think there's definitely kind of like the added weight to it.

• 1:29:24Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 1:29:24Speaker 06

  Um, and so mentally, I think you need to approach it slightly differently than you normally would approach a regular tournament. But overall, it's just a matter of going out there and trying to execute. And, um, you know, I got some, some of my best friends around this team. I'm looking forward to just going out there and competing and, and having some fun with the guys.

• 1:29:39Speaker 00

  All right. So not to do the thing where, uh, regular guy compares himself to professional athlete, but I'm about to do that. When I'm, I'm a terrible golfer. When I play in any type of team setting scramble, I always feel so bad because I'm just letting down everyone that I'm playing with. And I say, sorry, like console, I'll literally be like, just hit a drive, just be like, sorry, my bad dude. Do you think that you being the best player in the world, like your partners ever feel that? Do you have to give them a little talk being like, dude, I'm just Scotty? Like, let's go win together. Because I do think there's an element, I mean, you saw it with Tiger when he played in these tournaments, Phil. When you're the best, the guy you're playing with, your partner probably feels extra pressure that you're not putting on him, but he might be putting on himself.

• 1:30:22Speaker 06

  Yeah, I think that a lot of that just comes with the team environment. Like I grew up playing team sports and I, I always felt a little bit more pressure there just because you're playing for your teammates as well. You're playing for something that's, you know, bigger than yourself. And, um, I've never had that discussion, but I've always become really close with the guys that I've played with, just because going out into that environment where there is so much pressure, there's a lot of stress attached to it. Like you really feel like you're, I mean, you're stepping into the arena in a big way and it's, it's very important that you're on the same page with whoever you're out there with.

• 1:30:52Speaker 00

  You say sorry in team golf?

• 1:30:54Speaker 06

  So I have one, one, one story about that. Sam Burns and I were playing, this is my first President's Cup, and we're playing alternate shot. And we had agreed not to say sorry to each other.

• 1:31:05Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 1:31:05Speaker 06

  That was like, we're not going to say sorry. Like, we're not going to do it. And we get to, I think it was like the ninth hole and I cold shanked an iron shot off this par three. Like a hundred yards straight right into the woods. And like, he's completely screwed from there. And like, every part of me wants to be like, dude, I'm so sorry.

• 1:31:23Speaker 00

  Right.

• 1:31:24Speaker 06

  I just like literally cold shank like straight, like clearly gonna lose the hole. And we kind of just walk over and Sam's just like looking straight. He has no idea what to say. He's probably never even seen me shank the ball before.

• 1:31:33Speaker 00

  Right.

• 1:31:33Speaker 06

  He's just kind of looking straight and he kind of just like gives me the look and I kind of look at him and I was just like, good luck, man.

• 1:31:40Speaker 00

  I love it. I love it.

• 1:31:42Speaker 02

  If I were him, I would, I would have said like, it's, you should actually apologize.

• 1:31:46Speaker 00

  It is.

• 1:31:47Speaker 02

  It's a good rule to have.

• 1:31:48Speaker 00

  Really good rule. Cause I, like I said, I mean, when I, I know it's different playing professional, but like when you play in these settings, I just, I just, I like, it's like a machine gun of sorries. Then I throw it whoever I'm playing with.

• 1:31:59Speaker 06

  Well, yeah, cause you, I mean, you want to be able to perform. You want to be able to hit the shots and.

• 1:32:02Speaker 00

  And especially alternate shot where you're like actually screwing them over. Yeah.

• 1:32:06Speaker 06

  He's got to go hit it from the, I got to walk up to the.

• 1:32:07Speaker 00

  Right, exactly.

• 1:32:08Speaker 06

  Yeah. But I mean, it's like, you want to hit every shot great, but I think having the understanding that that's not going to happen. And so there's no need to apologize. Like, I know he's trying his best and he knows I'm trying my best at some things that sometimes things don't go always as you plan them.

• 1:32:21Speaker 02

  One of my favorite things about team golf is, uh, is like the handshakes and high fives whenever something goes well. Because I think golfers are like oh for 500,000 on agreeing whether they're doing a fist bump, a high five or a handshake when they're excited. Like, I don't think it's ever connected. I think it's always like, there's only one choice out of the three that you, that you have to make. And it never links up. Do you guys have, like, I know in, in, uh, team sports, you get traded to a new team. You have a bunch of new handshakes and stuff. Do you guys have anything like that?

• 1:32:50Speaker 06

  I think we probably need to be a little bit more connected on that. Like I could definitely think of some examples of like not knowing exactly how to celebrate. Especially if somebody like, isn't very performative to begin with. So then like, when you do get really excited, like, yeah, typically like it's hard to get on the same page. Like I, like Bryson and I, this is my first Ryder Cup, we're trying to celebrate something. And I think we almost missed the high five. And then we somehow ended up like stumbling into a chest bump somehow. We like know what to do. And then like, I think I tried to high five him again. He just like walked off.

• 1:33:19Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 1:33:19Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 1:33:20Speaker 00

  The problem is, is golf is a sport that you shake hands. No other sport are you like shaking hands as much as you shake hands in golf, especially at the end of the round. So you guys aren't used to the high fives. We got to get.

• 1:33:31Speaker 02

  I like the jumping hip bump. You know that, like the jump side thing?

• 1:33:35Speaker 00

  We need to get like a, you know, I don't know if it's allowed for the president's cup, but it'd be great if we got like a Dominican baseball player on the team. Just to like teach you guys.

• 1:33:43Speaker 06

  I was about to say, we need somebody to teach us.

• 1:33:46Speaker 00

  Just loosen it up a little, you know what I mean? Just like have some fun with it.

• 1:33:50Speaker 02

  I would like to see something like, uh, like a scramble at one of these, if it's the president's cup or if it's the Ryder cup. Like let, let the boys go out there, do a scramble, see how low you can go. Like how, how low do you think you could get with? Like you're, if you were to pick three other guys from the president's cup team, how low do you think you could shoot at Medina?

• 1:34:08Speaker 06

  Oh, if you have four of us in a scramble, I mean, you could shoot, you could shoot pretty low. I feel like, uh, I feel like a par would be like a fairly disappointing result. I'm sure that would happen over the course of a round. Like we've never actually tried that, but I think you, like having four chances is significantly different than only having, you know, one or two.

• 1:34:26Speaker 00

  Right. How many of us could, no, we couldn't beat you.

• 1:34:30Speaker 02

  Yeah, we could.

• 1:34:31Speaker 00

  There's nothing. Like I was saying, like if we had 20 guys, if we're 20 guys, we're all between 15 and 25 handicaps. Yeah. Would we win a hole?

• 1:34:43Speaker 06

  Yeah, for sure. Like golf, golf is one of those sports where like, you guys can probably all, if you get, if you're given enough tries, you can all do the things that we do. It's not a sport, like it's not like, but it's not like watching somebody dunk a basketball. Like you'll like never be able to dunk a basketball.

• 1:35:00Speaker 00

  Yeah. But, but I'll never be able to hit one straight 330 yards.

• 1:35:04Speaker 06

  Yeah, but you could hit it eventually. Like you'll hit one 250.

• 1:35:07Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 1:35:08Speaker 06

  And you know, like the more you try, you'll learn how to hit 270.

• 1:35:12Speaker 06

  But like eventually you could do something very close. Like maybe not hit it 350, but you could hit 300. You don't hit it 350. And so like give it enough tries, like you can pull off the shot.

• 1:35:22Speaker 02

  If you have like 10 guys, you're not going to be able to keep your eyes on all of us. We're going to cheat. Yeah. So we can take a couple of holes off.

• 1:35:29Speaker 00

  The numbers there. Um, you don't still have hand, foot and mouth, right? Okay.

• 1:35:35Speaker 06

  No, all the remnants, all the remnants are actually gone up.

• 1:35:38Speaker 00

  Cause my kids had it too. And we, I actually, when my oldest had it, I didn't know he had it. And I was just like, dude, why is he be crying? Like, why is he like, why is he touching his feet? And then I learned about it. I was like, oh, this is serious.

• 1:35:48Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 1:35:48Speaker 00

  That, that sucks.

• 1:35:49Speaker 06

  Fortunately, Remy, our younger, our six month old did not get it, but Bennett and I got it pretty good.

• 1:35:55Speaker 00

  It's brutal.

• 1:35:56Speaker 06

  It was awful.

• 1:35:56Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 1:35:57Speaker 06

  It was.

• 1:35:58Speaker 00

  You're a warrior for being out there.

• 1:36:00Speaker 06

  The, the worst part was my throat. Like I, I remember walking off the course on Thursday and these guys wanted me to do like my media stop. And I was like, I very rarely ever say no. And I was like, no, like I can't do it. And as I was walking off, a reporter I'm really close to was like, hey, can I actually ask you a couple of questions while you're walking? I was like, no, I cannot talk.

• 1:36:15Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 1:36:16Speaker 06

  My throat was that bad. Um, but that's just, that's just part of it.

• 1:36:21Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 1:36:21Speaker 06

  Fortunately, like the, the blister stayed for a long time on my hands.

• 1:36:24Speaker 00

  That's like it was pretty significant for a golfer. Yeah.

• 1:36:27Speaker 02

  Yeah. What was it like gripping the club?

• 1:36:29Speaker 06

  Um, the first couple of days were, were not great, but it got better as the week went on. They, they gave me like some steroid cream that I put on my hands that, that helped like the.

• 1:36:37Speaker 00

  Imagine if you got popped.

• 1:36:40Speaker 00

  And you're like, dude, I just.

• 1:36:43Speaker 06

  Fortunately, the tournament had a doctor and I was like, listen, man, like, I think this is what it is. And he's like, oh yeah. He looked at everything and then.

• 1:36:48Speaker 00

  Imagine if they were like, oh, Scotty's on the gear. He's got, he's on steroids. Like, no, dude, my kid has hand, foot and mouth disease.

• 1:36:55Speaker 06

  Bryce is like, yeah, I think I got that too.

• 1:36:58Speaker 00

  What do you want me to do? Oh, man.

• 1:37:01Speaker 06

  It was not fun.

• 1:37:02Speaker 00

  Yeah, no, not fun at all. Not fun at all. Um, also congrats to your youngest who's not a jinx. Cause I know there was a time when he hadn't been in the, uh, he hadn't, you hadn't won, right?

• 1:37:14Speaker 06

  And then he was born in March. I didn't win until maybe like August or.

• 1:37:17Speaker 00

  Was there ever a moment where you're like, is he a jinx? Oh, I had that with all my kids when they were born. It's like, are you a jinx?

• 1:37:24Speaker 02

  It was about gambling though.

• 1:37:27Speaker 06

  Gambling, you definitely believe that jinx is for sure.

• 1:37:29Speaker 02

  Oh, it's a kid's fault. Yeah.

• 1:37:30Speaker 00

  The day my first, first born was born, I went 0 and 4 in WNBA overs and I just, he's a jinx. For sure.

• 1:37:37Speaker 02

  Do you, do you have any like actual superstitions?

• 1:37:41Speaker 06

  I mean, I've used the same yardage book for a long time. I use the same ball marker every round.

• 1:37:47Speaker 02

  Oh, what is it?

• 1:37:48Speaker 06

  It's a Dallas Cowboys coin.

• 1:37:50Speaker 02

  Okay. You're kind of a piece of shit.

• 1:37:54Speaker 02

  Would you like to apologize? I'm, I'm a commander's.

• 1:37:57Speaker 06

  Being, being a Cowboys fan is not fun.

• 1:38:01Speaker 02

  Good.

• 1:38:01Speaker 00

  Yeah, no, that's true. Yeah.

• 1:38:03Speaker 06

  It's not, it's not like I jumped on some bandwagon. Like the last time they made, I think an NFC championship was before I was born.

• 1:38:09Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 1:38:09Speaker 06

  So like I'm, I should get like a reward for being as loyal as I.

• 1:38:13Speaker 02

  That is true. Like if you're.

• 1:38:15Speaker 06

  You can relate to that. Like it's not.

• 1:38:18Speaker 00

  He put a jinx on, uh, the Cowboys, uh, yesterday. I was like, oh no, what is it? What's going to happen? They're not going to make an NFC championship game for another 30 years? Like they're jinxed.

• 1:38:26Speaker 02

  I was, it was, it was a moment of, uh, emotions were running high after the game. And then I went back, I saw the post that the Cowboys put out before the game on like Friday, and it was, uh, Jaden injured, lying on the ground from last year's game. And so I was upset about that. So I put a jinx on the Cowboys. I will remove the jinx if you apologize on behalf of the Cowboys.

• 1:38:49Speaker 06

  I don't know what they posted, so I can't, I can't dive into those waters.

• 1:38:53Speaker 02

  We don't celebrate injuries, but the Cowboys did. So I, I had no choice but to jinx them. Um, but I mean, they, they look pretty good right now.

• 1:39:01Speaker 00

  It's a curse. It's a curse.

• 1:39:02Speaker 02

  I mean, I was, I was out of options. Yeah. I had nothing. I was just kind of flailing at the world, but they do look good this year.

• 1:39:08Speaker 00

  Yeah. Is this the year?

• 1:39:09Speaker 02

  The offense looks good.

• 1:39:10Speaker 06

  I tell you what, I was really excited for the season to start. Just cause like we drafted a bunch of guys on defense. Like the defense actually got better as the year went on last year. Like the, the guys we traded for at the deadline, like, and then they played the Giants. It's like, this was awful.

• 1:39:24Speaker 00

  Yeah, that was bad.

• 1:39:25Speaker 06

  Yeah. And then I got to watch a bit of the game yesterday and it was, it was better. But then like you're playing a backup quarterback. I don't know how much that factors in, but.

• 1:39:32Speaker 02

  Yeah. He's a pretty good backup.

• 1:39:33Speaker 06

  He is a good backup.

• 1:39:35Speaker 02

  I'm still, I'm, I'm just hurt. Hurt people, hurt people. That's what I'm going through right now. Uh, but you guys got to watch, watch the games together. That's, that's kind of cool.

• 1:39:42Speaker 06

  Yeah, it's fun. Like for, for me, just being able to sit down and watch football. Like we were sitting at the course.

• 1:39:48Speaker 06

  And I'm like, you know, my, my kids are at the hotel. Like this is some free time that we don't really get. It wasn't the worst thing to get rained out. So we kind of just caught up with the guys and, and watched, watched the games and.

• 1:39:57Speaker 02

  Do you guys take a bus to the, to the course?

• 1:39:59Speaker 06

  Yeah, a bus to the course.

• 1:40:00Speaker 02

  That's probably good for you.

• 1:40:04Speaker 06

  It's not bad.

• 1:40:07Speaker 00

  It's not, it's not bad. That all happened. Have you, like, it's been enough time now where we could just be like, that was nuts.

• 1:40:14Speaker 06

  So like people always joke about me getting arrested. Like I got, I got like, I didn't just get arrested. I got charged with assaulting a police officer. Like I didn't just like get like a, like I got charged with assaulting a police officer. So it was like, Sam actually wore the T-shirt with my mug shot to the, to the, our team room last night. So.

• 1:40:35Speaker 02

  I love that.

• 1:40:36Speaker 06

  The joke continues to.

• 1:40:37Speaker 00

  It's crazy. Like I just remember in that morning waking up and being like, what? Scotty, what did he do?

• 1:40:43Speaker 06

  Yeah, I had the same feeling.

• 1:40:44Speaker 00

  Story came out. It was just like, oh, okay. This is not, he, he didn't do anything bad. It was a wild miscommunication. But yeah, street, you know, street credit for you.

• 1:40:52Speaker 06

  Yeah. Yeah. Don't mess with me. I'll go to jail.

• 1:40:55Speaker 02

  I mean, at, at one point it's got to be, you have to understand what a ridiculous situation it's in. But then when you read like felony.

• 1:41:03Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 1:41:04Speaker 02

  Yeah. Like, excuse me, what?

• 1:41:05Speaker 06

  Well, that was, it wasn't like I just went to jail. Like I got charged with a very, very serious crime.

• 1:41:10Speaker 02

  Well, you did ruin his pants.

• 1:41:12Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 1:41:13Speaker 02

  I read the police report the other day. I had to remind myself, the very last.

• 1:41:17Speaker 06

  What does the police report say?

• 1:41:18Speaker 02

  The very last sentence of the police report was, and the officer's pants were damaged beyond repair.

• 1:41:24Speaker 00

  Yep.

• 1:41:25Speaker 02

  Pretty disgusting. That's the classic Cowboys fan stuff.

• 1:41:30Speaker 00

  And by the way, credit to you. Did you, I assume you never dropped like a, do you know who I am?

• 1:41:36Speaker 06

  No, I didn't.

• 1:41:36Speaker 00

  Said I'm playing in the tournament, I would assume, but.

• 1:41:39Speaker 06

  To be honest with you, I don't remember a whole lot of what happened after. When, I remember him trying to like get me out of the car. And I was just like, I'm not getting out of this car until some police officers show up. Like not knowing who the person was trying to get into my car. And then.

• 1:41:56Speaker 06

  Like, next thing I know, I'm in handcuffs in like the back of the police car. And I was like, whatever this guy tells me to do, like, I'm not saying a word.

• 1:42:01Speaker 00

  Yeah, smart.

• 1:42:02Speaker 06

  Like, I can only get myself into.

• 1:42:04Speaker 00

  Right, right. But not like, honestly, like the, if there was a video of you being like, do you know who I am? That's the worst for like a celebrity or a famous person.

• 1:42:12Speaker 06

  Yeah, well, it was like I, like, in that situation, I was just like, okay, like, I know I didn't do anything wrong. So like, as long as I just. Like, do what I'm told, everything will work out and everything worked out and like.

• 1:42:23Speaker 00

  What'd you shoot that day?

• 1:42:24Speaker 06

  Shot, I think, six under.

• 1:42:25Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 1:42:28Speaker 00

  What's, what's a lead that you're like, all right, I'm probably out of this because you had one this year. Was it the Masters that you were like 13 back and then you got all the way down to like?

• 1:42:39Speaker 06

  Yeah, I mean.

• 1:42:40Speaker 00

  Is there, are you like, I'm always going to be like, I'm gonna, I'm gonna be back in this because you have, I feel like that is something that you're really, really good at that, like you can be hovering around Thursday, Friday. And then Saturday, Sunday come, it's like, up here comes Scotty, like this is what's happening. He's making a charge.

• 1:42:55Speaker 06

  Yeah, I think it's like, I always pride myself on trying to do my best and like, that's not something that I take very lightly. And so like, if I'm going to show up to a tournament, like I'm showing up to. Play 72 holes and play as hard as I can. I feel like that's what I'm called to do. Like my calling when I get to a tournament is to compete as hard as I can. And, you know, there's been some tournaments where, you know. I could have maybe been out of it. And then I played some really good golf to get myself back into it.

• 1:43:19Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 1:43:20Speaker 06

  Like, there's definitely some examples over the course of my career where. There were some times I could have given up. And like, one of them I think about often is like when I, the, the Olympics in France, I shot, I think. Maybe like a 29 on the back nine. To get into metal position. And it was just like, I remember walking off the ninth green, just so pissed. I wasn't holding any putts. I look at my caddy and I'm like. I'm like, ready to break my putter. And I was like, Teddy, like, I think I'm gonna putt better with my lob wedge. Like, it's probably time to break it. Like, it's over. And he's like, no, no, no, like, just don't break it. Like, give it to me. And I was like, Teddy, I'm pretty sure I'd putt better with my lob wedge. Like, in that moment, you, you feel like giving up because like. It's a hard game and it can get really frustrating. And but Teddy talked me off the ledge and we end up going out there and having a great back nine and, and put ourselves in a position to do something really cool.

• 1:44:03Speaker 00

  That's, yeah.

• 1:44:04Speaker 06

  Like. I think when I look back at my career, like, I want to say that I gave it everything that I could and.

• 1:44:13Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 1:44:13Speaker 06

  Like that.

• 1:44:14Speaker 00

  That's mental toughness. Cause I'll tell you right now, I would quit so fast. If like, if things start going bad, it's like, I'm out.

• 1:44:22Speaker 06

  Yeah, I mean, just like, if you work really hard for something, you don't want to just, you don't want to just give in and. I don't know. I feel like I take a lot of pride and like, if I get off to a tough start, like it's part of, you know, perseverance and fortitude and all that stuff.

• 1:44:34Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 1:44:34Speaker 06

  Getting in there and just continuing to grind things out like I. Yeah, I'm definitely proud of those things for.

• 1:44:39Speaker 00

  Yeah, definitely. You should be. And I mean, that is like, I, I really do mean it. Like, there's. There's so many times where I'm watching a golf tournament and in the first couple of days, you're like down there. It's like. Scotty will be heard from at some point. Like he will, there, there will be a moment where everyone will be like, watch out, here comes Scotty. And that's, you can't say that about every guy. You know, there's, there's some guys that like, when they're, when they have a bad first two days, like, that's it. There's no coming back. It's like, you're always a threat. And I feel like other people feel that too.

• 1:45:09Speaker 06

  Yeah, yeah. I mean, I, to be honest, I don't really know how to elaborate on it. Like, I feel like, I feel like when I step up on the first tee, I want to tell myself that, that I did everything I could in order to play well. And now my job is to compete. And so then. You know, we're given another four days to compete and that's, that's what I'm called to do. And I don't really, I don't really think much, much past that.

• 1:45:25Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 1:45:26Speaker 02

  You, I, you seem like a process guy, somebody that, that takes a lot of joy in the process. And then the results kind of speak to the work that you put in. But you definitely, in order to achieve what you've done, I'm sure that you have goals and things that you want to accomplish. Like, what, what do you want to, to have accomplished when all is said and done? In terms of your golf career?

• 1:45:46Speaker 06

  Whoa, that's a heavy question. That is a heavy question. I, I've never been a guy that's like written down goals. I have like what I would call dreams and aspirations. But I've always been at my best when I just live really day to day. And like, I, I am a process guy for sure. Like, one of my favorite things in the world is going out and practicing by myself. Like, I just love trying to figure things out. And golf is. A puzzle that can pretty much never be solved. And it's one of my favorite things in the world. Like, I love practicing and trying to improve and, and figure this game out and. Like, that's why I feel like I keep coming back. Like, I don't get, I don't get tired of practicing. I love trying to figure it out.

• 1:46:21Speaker 00

  Do you feel like you, you'll go out and practice? You're like, I feel like I got better to like, I, I fixed something or did something because from the outside, we just see, you know, professional golfers, like they're just. So, so good. They're at a different level. But you're actually like fine tuning stuff and being like, I got better today. I know exactly what I got.

• 1:46:37Speaker 06

  I mean, I'm definitely always chasing that feeling at the end of the day. You know, there's always some days where you get done at the course and, you know, I'm always like, how was your day? And I was like, it was not good.

• 1:46:43Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 1:46:43Speaker 06

  Good. But then there's some other days where you're like. I had a really good, I had a really good day.

• 1:46:47Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 1:46:47Speaker 06

  I felt like I definitely improved and I feel like more often than not, I want that feeling when I leave the course and.

• 1:46:54Speaker 06

  We're always kind of striving to get there. And I feel like I can get a little bit impatient. I think sometimes when it's not going that way.

• 1:46:58Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 1:46:58Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 1:46:59Speaker 00

  By the way, when you, uh, I, I think I, was it a FedEx, uh, prank video with Eli Manning? That he, that was the worst costume ever. You knew that was Eli, right?

• 1:47:09Speaker 06

  Yeah, I think he showed up on the range.

• 1:47:11Speaker 00

  Yeah, come on.

• 1:47:12Speaker 06

  At first, at first he had his head down. And so you couldn't really tell, but he was like, he's so tall.

• 1:47:17Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 1:47:17Speaker 06

  You're like, you're not a normal looking person.

• 1:47:19Speaker 00

  We like Eli, but it was like, dude, come on, you gotta like, put on like some prosthetics or something.

• 1:47:24Speaker 06

  Yeah, or like have a chair or something like, just seeing him standing there, like he came with us on the range and he's got his head down. He's like 6'6", like dude.

• 1:47:32Speaker 00

  This guy.

• 1:47:33Speaker 02

  He always sounds like a Manning, no matter what voice he puts.

• 1:47:36Speaker 00

  Yeah, that's true.

• 1:47:37Speaker 06

  I'm just here with FedEx.

• 1:47:38Speaker 00

  Yeah. I got a question for you, kind of a serious question, because I, we've, when we've had you on before, I've always, uh, I think I said it last time you're on, like. I love how honest you are as an athlete. And I think that's rare for athletes to be able to be honest, like talking about your faith, talking about your family. When it comes like, and it's always weird to me with sports media where it's like, guys are honest and then we criticize them. It's like, no, we want them to be honest. We want them to be themselves. Would you say that like, as a man, like crying after an injury is like, fine?

• 1:48:09Speaker 00

  Like a hamstring injury.

• 1:48:12Speaker 02

  But what if it's, it's probably a really bad hamstring injury that you're talking about, right?

• 1:48:15Speaker 00

  It seems really bad. He's like getting pulled off and like, everyone's like, oh, fuck.

• 1:48:22Speaker 06

  So I had, I have Caleb, he was starting on.

• 1:48:24Speaker 00

  So you cried too.

• 1:48:25Speaker 06

  I was like, yeah.

• 1:48:27Speaker 00

  Yeah, okay, see? Emotion's okay to show.

• 1:48:31Speaker 06

  Well, on like, on a more, like, if it's a serious question, like, I'm a super, super emotional guy. I cry at everything.

• 1:48:36Speaker 00

  Love that. Same.

• 1:48:38Speaker 06

  But yes, seeing Caleb, like, you just. I don't, I don't know what to say to that.

• 1:48:44Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 1:48:44Speaker 06

  Because now like, I was, I read today, it was like a grade one.

• 1:48:47Speaker 00

  Yeah, but in the moment, he was really hurt. And the moment.

• 1:48:51Speaker 06

  I'm not gonna even begin to try to understand what those football players go through each week. Like, we were even watching some of the stuff yesterday, like. I can't remember who it was for the Cowboys, but he got hit low.

• 1:49:02Speaker 00

  Yeah, he got, he got stepped on the taint. The one guy who got stepped on the taint. That did happen in the.

• 1:49:07Speaker 06

  I don't know what.

• 1:49:07Speaker 00

  Game two.

• 1:49:08Speaker 06

  I just remember watching and he was going across and he got hit like right here.

• 1:49:12Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 1:49:12Speaker 02

  Okay.

• 1:49:13Speaker 06

  It might've been that.

• 1:49:14Speaker 00

  Yeah, yeah.

• 1:49:15Speaker 06

  With a helmet. And I'm like, if somebody did that to me, like, he's running full speed this way. That guy's running full speed this way. And then he just got up.

• 1:49:20Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 1:49:21Speaker 06

  He kept playing.

• 1:49:21Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 1:49:22Speaker 06

  I was like, I would never be able to get up from that. So I don't, I'm not going to go down the, I'm a golfer. I'm not going to try to relate. Uh, no.

• 1:49:31Speaker 00

  Oh, no. Okay, he hasn't.

• 1:49:32Speaker 02

  What's the word? Yeah. What's the worst injury you've had?

• 1:49:35Speaker 00

  Hand, foot and mouth.

• 1:49:36Speaker 02

  That is pretty bad.

• 1:49:38Speaker 06

  I got a wine glass through my hand a few years ago.

• 1:49:40Speaker 00

  Oh, shit.

• 1:49:40Speaker 02

  Oh, man.

• 1:49:41Speaker 00

  That's like a baseball player injury. It's for like.

• 1:49:43Speaker 06

  It was, it was pretty dumb. Yeah.

• 1:49:45Speaker 02

  Or hockey.

• 1:49:46Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 1:49:46Speaker 02

  It happened here.

• 1:49:47Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 1:49:47Speaker 02

  Chicago one time.

• 1:49:48Speaker 00

  Yeah. All right. So you, you agree, like, like athletes should be able to show their emotions more.

• 1:49:53Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 1:49:54Speaker 00

  It's a loaded question.

• 1:49:55Speaker 02

  Oh, that's not really, you're not talking about emotion.

• 1:49:56Speaker 00

  Yeah, no.

• 1:49:57Speaker 02

  Are you talking about emotion or are you talking about?

• 1:49:59Speaker 00

  Both.

• 1:49:59Speaker 02

  Pain.

• 1:49:59Speaker 00

  Everything. All in one.

• 1:50:01Speaker 02

  Sometimes, sometimes.

• 1:50:02Speaker 00

  It's an emotional.

• 1:50:03Speaker 06

  I'll be honest, I did not think, I did not think that's where that question was gonna go.

• 1:50:08Speaker 00

  You like how I did that?

• 1:50:09Speaker 06

  It's like, really teed up. I was like, okay, I better put on this serious hat.

• 1:50:13Speaker 00

  And then I just wanted to be like, Scotty, tell me that it's fine that my quarterback had an emotional moment. It's fine. It's fine.

• 1:50:18Speaker 06

  I think it's fine.

• 1:50:18Speaker 00

  Yeah, it's fine. Exactly. Thank you.

• 1:50:20Speaker 02

  What was your emotion when you so callously broke Jaden Daniels' elbow?

• 1:50:26Speaker 06

  I was like, man, they really should have kicked a field goal.

• 1:50:27Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 1:50:28Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 1:50:28Speaker 02

  Well.

• 1:50:29Speaker 00

  Butterfly effect.

• 1:50:29Speaker 02

  Yeah, it's butterfly effect.

• 1:50:31Speaker 06

  I real, like, I think, like. Seeing injuries in sports really stinks.

• 1:50:37Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 1:50:37Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 1:50:38Speaker 06

  Like getting injured, like I remember when I, when I hurt my hand, I missed the first couple of tournaments, like work, like you put so much work. Into putting yourself in a position to succeed. And then you get injured and it's something out of your control. I think especially in a sport like football where they just get injured all the time, like it really sucks to watch.

• 1:50:52Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 1:50:52Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 1:50:52Speaker 06

  It really does.

• 1:50:55Speaker 02

  I have a.

• 1:50:56Speaker 00

  Sport.

• 1:50:56Speaker 02

  I have a, like golf, strictly golf nerd related question. And maybe you can explain it to me because I think. A lot of people out there, they watch you play, they understand you're the best player in the world. And they, they look at your feet when you swing. And they're like, what, what is going on with the feet? And I know that there's a, a reason, there's like a, a method behind the madness. And something that you're trying to do. But I realized when I was watching your swing the other day, like, I don't know what that is. I don't know why you do that with your feet. So can you explain it? Like, we're dumb. We don't know anything about golf, but can you, can you dumb it down to our level?

• 1:51:28Speaker 06

  Oh yeah, I can dumb it down pretty easy.

• 1:51:29Speaker 02

  Okay.

• 1:51:30Speaker 06

  Yeah, I don't know exactly what I'm doing with my feet, but I've had the same coach since I was seven years old. And like Randy's fixed a lot of stuff for me, but that was something that if you ever. Tried to fix it. It just didn't feel natural. And so like you could go into the science behind it, but for me, I just feel athletic when I'm hitting a golf ball. And if I lock my feet in, I feel too robotic.

• 1:51:48Speaker 02

  Hmm. Okay.

• 1:51:48Speaker 00

  Swing your swing.

• 1:51:50Speaker 06

  Swing your swing.

• 1:51:50Speaker 00

  Yeah. Yeah. I like the swing your swing thing that people say because it's like, I'm a, I have a bad swing, but I'm going to swing it.

• 1:51:58Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 1:51:58Speaker 00

  Swing your swing.

• 1:51:59Speaker 06

  I mean, swing your swing, like golf is such a complicated game. I think sometimes for people like the simpler you can make it, the easier it typically gets.

• 1:52:05Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 1:52:06Speaker 06

  And so like you look at, there's a lot of guys that are playing some really good golf right now that have different looking swings. Like, oh, I got her up on a few days ago. Like, he's about as unique of a move as you'll see on tour.

• 1:52:15Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 1:52:16Speaker 06

  And he's really, really good at golf.

• 1:52:17Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 1:52:18Speaker 02

  Do you do the same thing every time with your feet?

• 1:52:21Speaker 06

  I mean, I'm not even thinking about it at all. Like if, if I never saw a video of it, I would never know that I do that.

• 1:52:26Speaker 02

  Really?

• 1:52:27Speaker 00

  Whoa, that's crazy.

• 1:52:28Speaker 02

  What would happen if you tried to?

• 1:52:29Speaker 06

  It's just my swing. I don't know any different.

• 1:52:31Speaker 02

  Yeah. What would happen if you tried to hit a shot and you thought the entire time, don't move your feet?

• 1:52:36Speaker 06

  I'd probably chunk it pretty bad and that would be.

• 1:52:38Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 1:52:39Speaker 02

  Do you think we could beat you if you, Scotty not allowed to move his feet and then all of us scramble?

• 1:52:48Speaker 02

  Max hates it when we ask golfers that question.

• 1:52:50Speaker 00

  Yeah. Uh, Hank, you got any questions for Scotty? He's got to run in a minute. Oh, by the way, uh, Stu Feiner says hello. Uh, did he, did it ever get to you that he wanted you to come to his house when you guys played at Bethpage?

• 1:53:03Speaker 06

  No, I mean, I would have loved to be able to go to his house.

• 1:53:05Speaker 00

  Yeah, I think you were pretty busy. I, he texted me, it was like, he called me, he's like, can you get Scotty to come to my house? It's like, look, I have of, I, I know one of Scotty's guys, I will send the text, but I do not think that he has the time on a major week to come by.

• 1:53:21Speaker 06

  I think that's something that like a lot of people don't understand about golf is it's not like a typical practice schedule. Like the days are long.

• 1:53:28Speaker 00

  Right.

• 1:53:28Speaker 06

  Our days are really long. Our days at home are really, really long days. Like today, like we're left for the course at 7:30 and I haven't showered yet.

• 1:53:38Speaker 00

  Right.

• 1:53:38Speaker 06

  Like I got home and I went straight to do, see my trainer, then went straight to media and now I'm here and.

• 1:53:43Speaker 00

  Yeah. Cause we think of golf as like three and a half hours, four hours play, then go home.

• 1:53:47Speaker 06

  Yeah. Like you walk up, you hit your first tee shot and that's your first shot of the day, but like.

• 1:53:51Speaker 00

  Yeah. Yeah. So, but it's true. If you, he wanted you to.

• 1:53:54Speaker 06

  So my apologies, Stu.

• 1:53:56Speaker 00

  Yeah. He loves you. You know, he loves you and I hope you're still watching advisors.

• 1:54:00Speaker 06

  I am still watching advisors.

• 1:54:01Speaker 00

  He's still killing it. He's, uh, he's, he's the best. He was the absolute best and I, he might try to find you the next couple of days.

• 1:54:07Speaker 02

  Well, that, that whole answer.

• 1:54:08Speaker 06

  Let, let, let him come find me.

• 1:54:10Speaker 02

  Yeah. That whole answer you gave is just going to encourage him.

• 1:54:12Speaker 00

  Yo, yeah.

• 1:54:13Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 1:54:13Speaker 00

  No, he loves.

• 1:54:14Speaker 02

  He's going to hear this and he's going to be like, okay, Scotty, we're doing dinner.

• 1:54:18Speaker 00

  Uh, you got a question for Scotty?

• 1:54:21Speaker 04

  I saw a clip of Siwoo saying, which I do, it was hard to believe that he learned how to hit different shot shapes playing with you. But he was like already a pro golfer.

• 1:54:30Speaker 06

  Whoa.

• 1:54:31Speaker 04

  Is that true?

• 1:54:32Speaker 06

  Um, Siwoo and I started playing a lot of golf together. So Siwoo made this maybe two or three years ago. He asked me one day to stop me in the locker room. He's like, hey, you remember at Royal Oak? And I was like, yeah, like what's up? Like, he's like, you, you can help me join there. And I was like, yeah. I mean, like if you want to, like it's called Royal Oaks, not Royal Oak, but yeah, I can help you join there. And so I helped him get into the club. It's the club I grew up at. It's where my coach Randy's been for like 50 years now. And, uh, we play a lot of golf together and he asked, he asked a lot of questions. Siwoo, I don't know if y'all have ever interacted with him, but he's awesome.

• 1:55:03Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 1:55:03Speaker 06

  He's everybody's favorite guy.

• 1:55:04Speaker 00

  Yeah. How many clubs you a member at?

• 1:55:08Speaker 06

  Uh, just three.

• 1:55:09Speaker 00

  But you're, you can go anywhere. Has anyone ever said no?

• 1:55:14Speaker 06

  I've never really tried.

• 1:55:15Speaker 00

  That would be crazy.

• 1:55:16Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 1:55:16Speaker 00

  If I've never. No. Like imagine that. I kind of want someone to say, I want like a, a, a Munich course to say no. Just like, sorry Scotty, you can't come.

• 1:55:24Speaker 02

  Banned. We, we back the blue here.

• 1:55:29Speaker 00

  You got another question? Follow up?

• 1:55:30Speaker 06

  But yeah, Si, Si, uh, maybe, I don't know. He, he asked a lot of questions when we played golf.

• 1:55:34Speaker 04

  It was just shocking because he was obviously like, he's a professional golfer at that point. And he's like, yeah, you know, I, I was playing with him and he was telling me like how he hits, like he just tries to like fade it towards the pin or draw it towards the pin. And then I started doing that too.

• 1:55:45Speaker 00

  That's sick.

• 1:55:46Speaker 06

  It kind of sounds like Siwoo.

• 1:55:48Speaker 04

  Uh, any hazing for, for like Jackson, like the young, the young guy, new guy on the team or like?

• 1:55:53Speaker 00

  Ain't got her up.

• 1:55:54Speaker 04

  Ain't got her up?

• 1:55:54Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 1:55:55Speaker 06

  Um.

• 1:55:57Speaker 04

  Or like anything that you had to do that you're, you're making them do?

• 1:56:00Speaker 06

  Not really. Like our, our thing is always like stuff that's in the team room. We try to keep in the team room. Like unless you're Kizner, Kizner talks a lot about stuff we do.

• 1:56:10Speaker 02

  Talks a lot about a lot.

• 1:56:10Speaker 00

  Oh, yeah. Right?

• 1:56:12Speaker 06

  Yeah. No, no, he.

• 1:56:13Speaker 00

  But no, he's covering it. I think.

• 1:56:15Speaker 06

  He might be.

• 1:56:15Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 1:56:16Speaker 06

  Yeah. I have, I was about to say, I haven't seen him yet this week, but, but no, I mean, we just try to get the guys integrated to the team. Like Jackson's like, I mean, maybe played five events as a professional before this one. And so, I mean, he's super green, but, um, he's very mature and he's really, really good at golf.

• 1:56:30Speaker 00

  Ask him if he knows there's a, you're not going to ask him this, but I'm going to make you, I'm going to say, ask him and you're not going to do it, but that's fine. Ask him if he knows there's a, a tracker fight over him. There's two trackers.

• 1:56:40Speaker 06

  Oh, Jackson Coeven trackers?

• 1:56:42Speaker 00

  Yeah. Well, oh, no, that's the other guy. Who's the other guy who the tracker fight was? Oh, it's him? Yeah. Yeah. There was two guys both claiming they were the tracker and then they were like, they fought back and forth.

• 1:56:52Speaker 02

  Do you have a?

• 1:56:53Speaker 00

  No, I track him. No, I track him. And it was, it was good stuff.

• 1:56:56Speaker 02

  Are you aware?

• 1:56:56Speaker 00

  That was a really bad story. I'm bailing on.

• 1:56:59Speaker 02

  I'm just curious if you are aware of like the tracking community.

• 1:57:02Speaker 06

  Not really. I, I try to do my best. I try to do my best to kind of stay out of it. Like.

• 1:57:06Speaker 02

  That's smart.

• 1:57:07Speaker 06

  We talked about my process, like me staying off the internet is, is definitely a good thing.

• 1:57:11Speaker 02

  Very smart.

• 1:57:11Speaker 00

  I'd agree. You got your advisors. That's all you need.

• 1:57:13Speaker 02

  Like you're, you're getting a taste. What this conversation is, that's all day, every day on the internet.

• 1:57:18Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 1:57:19Speaker 02

  You don't want that.

• 1:57:20Speaker 00

  I am embarrassed that I brought that up in front of you. All right. Zach, get out here. Get out here, Zach, for last question and then Sky's got to go.

• 1:57:26Speaker 02

  Good question, Hank.

• 1:57:27Speaker 00

  Uh, President's Cup, two day in all week. It starts Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, USA. Get ready.

• 1:57:32Speaker 02

  Hank's a big.

• 1:57:33Speaker 00

  Always just root for our country.

• 1:57:34Speaker 02

  Hank is a big international guy. He's going to be rooting against you.

• 1:57:38Speaker 06

  He's going to root against you.

• 1:57:38Speaker 02

  Big live guy.

• 1:57:39Speaker 00

  Yeah. Yeah. He's a big live guy. All right. Uh, Roback question, R H O B A C K dot com promo code take 20% off your first purchase. Q Zips, polos, hoodies, joggers, shorts, roback.com promo code take. Zach, you got this.

• 1:57:50Speaker 05

  Uh, how we doing Scotty? I just did have, that's awesome. I love that. Great day, man. Even better now. Uh, I did have a quick question. That's cool. If you're looking to have like the best day on the golf course, not necessarily like the lowest scoring round, but just the best day overall. If you're a part of this four man team, what are the three guys that you kind of, who are you drafting? Who you bring into the cart for the best day possible on the golf course?

• 1:58:13Speaker 06

  I mean, I have two, two good options. Like I think of, like I have a few really close friends at home and those guys I would definitely bring out. And then I have kind of like my fun golf group that I've played with for a long time, but those guys are a lot older. Um, so either one of those two, just like, one of my favorite things too is like social golf. Like even when I take a break, I still like social golf. So like going out, compete, gamble a little bit and have fun.

• 1:58:35Speaker 05

  Now, when you're, so, so you're going out with those guys back home. Are we going full strength, a hundred percent pop? Or is it like, do you dial the game back at all?

• 1:58:44Speaker 06

  I mean, I've always kind of just had one speed. So like I maybe would go into it just being like, oh, I'm just going to go have fun. And then I'll like lose the first hole and be like, crap.

• 1:58:50Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 1:58:51Speaker 06

  It's kind of like, when you go play, like I can't play pickup basketball. Cause like.

• 1:58:55Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 1:58:56Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 1:58:56Speaker 05

  Got you.

• 1:58:57Speaker 06

  Just only have one speed. Like it's.

• 1:58:58Speaker 00

  Right.

• 1:58:58Speaker 06

  Things are going to get out of hand. I'm just going to go and I'm probably going to hurt myself.

• 1:59:02Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 1:59:03Speaker 05

  For sure.

• 1:59:04Speaker 06

  So I would, I would definitely try to approach it that way, but that would quickly get thrown out.

• 1:59:07Speaker 00

  All right. You got a follow up? Last question?

• 1:59:08Speaker 05

  Uh, follow up. That's cool. Do you, uh, are there any lessons you learned through your like, uh, journey with golf that kind of you apply to your own like day to day life outside of the course that like, uh, that you could kind of maybe share with us? That's cool.

• 1:59:20Speaker 00

  Deep question.

• 1:59:20Speaker 06

  Yeah. Um.

• 1:59:24Speaker 06

  I think it's always just about remembering your why. Like I think sometimes when things don't go the way that I think they should go on the golf course. Like I can get frustrated because I work really, really hard to try and perform, but things don't always go that way. And I feel like golf, you're not only competing against your golf, the golf course or the people in the tournament, but also yourself. And like remembering my why is always important. Like why do I wake up every day and try to become the best golfer that I can be? Like, why do I wake up and, you know, try to be a good husband, try to be a good father? Like, why do you do all those things? And I think that for me, just in life, always remembering the why I do things, remembering the purpose behind things is, is always the most important.

• 2:00:02Speaker 00

  Sky's just the best dude. He's my role model, even though I'm 11 years older than him.

• 2:00:08Speaker 02

  Wait, how old are you?

• 2:00:09Speaker 06

  Um, 30.

• 2:00:10Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 2:00:12Speaker 02

  I feel so.

• 2:00:13Speaker 00

  I'm, I look up to Scottie Scheffler.

• 2:00:15Speaker 02

  You're so much more mature than all of us. Have you always been super mature?

• 2:00:19Speaker 00

  It's crazy.

• 2:00:20Speaker 06

  No, no, I don't think I'm very mature.

• 2:00:22Speaker 02

  It might be us.

• 2:00:24Speaker 00

  Profound and you, you think about things like that and we're, we have like stupid caveman dumb brain. We're thinking about trackers.

• 2:00:30Speaker 06

  But like, I, I think that's something you can always like, everybody can relate to. And I think especially y'all can relate to, like I, I remember going on that long thing at the open one.

• 2:00:37Speaker 03

  Year, we're talking about like all this different stuff and um like what is truly satisfying? I feel like that's something you can relate to. If you don't know your why, like you guys have accomplished so much in your field that you'd want to accomplish, but you wake up the next day and you're still the same guy like you still. Like the sun rises in the morning, you brush your teeth, you gotta take a shower like just because you accomplish something, it doesn't change, doesn't really change anything for you. And so remembering your why and your purpose and I think is just most important.

• 2:01:03Speaker 00

  You were a hundred percent right. Like when you said that all that stuff at the open, I know that like some people were like, hey, what's going on here? Like they maybe disagreed with some things. It's like, that's a guy that that understands himself and understands what motivates him. Was that all off the top or did you, had you been thinking about that for?

• 2:01:19Speaker 03

  I'm definitely not like I've, I try to keep my distractions to a minimum. So I definitely don't like going on these like really deep.

• 2:01:26Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 2:01:27Speaker 03

  Things, but I try to answer questions honestly. And so when somebody asks a really good question, I try to give them a good answer or the best answer that I can.

• 2:01:35Speaker 00

  It's a great answer. Yeah.

• 2:01:36Speaker 03

  Off the head. Yeah. Like, yeah, I'd say just try to be honest and then, yeah.

• 2:01:40Speaker 00

  That's why you and Caleb Williams are the best. You'll give a really good answer. You might cry a little like that's best part about sports, dude. It's mess. All right. We took you too much of your time. Thank you so much, man. This was so much fun. We love having you on the show and uh let's win USA. Yeah.

• 2:01:57Speaker 03

  Thanks for having me on. Appreciate you guys.

• 2:02:00Speaker 02

  Scotty Scheffler was brought to you by our great friends over at Shell. I'm going to be honest, I usually don't get excited about loyalty programs. They promise you big rewards and then it's like you actually have to eat 48 pizzas to get one for free. So when I heard about the Shell Fuel Rewards program, I was skeptical. But here's the thing, it actually kind of is annoyingly practical. You're already getting gas, you're already getting takeout, you're already buying snacks that you definitely didn't need, but absolutely deserve. With Shell Fuel Rewards, you just get rewarded for all that. And it's not a fake points you'll never use way. It's actual savings on gas. And the savings stack up. It's not like one sad little discount. You fill up, you eat, you shop, it all piles into real savings at the pump. Joining takes less than three minutes in the Shell app.

• 2:02:44Speaker 02

  You'll save on every fill after that, literally every single one you will save at. And savings on gas might be something that interests a lot of you right now. And it's so easy to do. If you want my recommendation, join the Shell Fuel Rewards program and save today. That's Shell Fuel Rewards. And save today. And Joe Davis is coming up and he's brought to you by Venmo.

• 2:04:11Speaker 00

  Okay, we now welcome on a very, very special guest. It is uh first time, I guess colleague, kind of. Joe Davis, you can hear the voice. Joe Davis, you can hear him on Sundays uh calling NFL games. You also are going to hear him calling the fall classic in the World Series of baseball playoffs coming up. Joe, good to see you in studio. Uh, it's great. Your voice is awesome.

• 2:04:35Speaker 03

  Thanks, man.

• 2:04:36Speaker 00

  When did you know, first know that your voice was awesome? Like, did you, I always assume announcers like you.

• 2:04:40Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 2:04:41Speaker 00

  Uh, in my head, I'm like, Joe Davis is like just an 11 year old walking around with your exact same voice. And being like, what is this kid's like, he, he, he sounds incredible. He's only 11. What the hell?

• 2:04:51Speaker 03

  Yeah, yeah. I used to uh, you know, every kid out in the backyard playing their football games and everything, but I would announce them to and I, I think my parents probably thought I was crazy looking out there, seeing, seeing their kid tackle himself and hit himself on the helmet and call the games and everything at the same, these fake games. Honestly though, I, I worried. So I knew I wanted to do this, but as a teenager, I was like, I don't know if I sound good enough. I don't know if I'm in and obviously at that point, you're not going to sound like it.

• 2:05:21Speaker 00

  Yeah, yeah.

• 2:05:22Speaker 03

  An announcer, whatever. I still, I think that it, like I have this insecurity about, do I sound big enough? Do I sound like, you know, Al Michaels and Vern Lundquist and, and Brent Musburger and so there's some insecurity there still, I think.

• 2:05:35Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 2:05:36Speaker 03

  So I'm going to take that, I'm going to take.

• 2:05:37Speaker 00

  No, I, you're there. I mean, I, I think it's also, you've had uh the, the like privilege of calling some classic moments. I mean, last year's World Series.

• 2:05:46Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 2:05:47Speaker 00

  If that, if you want to do like, hey, how, how is Joe Davis like announced it to the world like he's here? It's like, that was such a classic World Series, just big moment after big moment. You crushed it. That's now seared in our brains.

• 2:05:59Speaker 03

  Yeah. And isn't it crazy how it's like, you just kind of have to be right place, right time with that?

• 2:06:04Speaker 00

  Right.

• 2:06:05Speaker 03

  I just happen to be the lucky son of a gun sitting in that chair when these crazy games are happening. And then you hope that you get the call right. But yeah, I mean, it's kind of the same thing with me doing Dodger games. I happened to show up in 2016 and they have this stretch that they've had over the last decade. It's really just right place, right time with a lot of that.

• 2:06:25Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 2:06:25Speaker 02

  When you were growing up, did you have uh announcers that you looked up, looked up to and that you, like, do you, do you emulate some of those guys as you were like trying to get into the business and figure out what your voice was?

• 2:06:34Speaker 03

  Yeah, it's not just because uh his name's on the, on your book there, wrote the foreword, but Joe Buck was the guy for me. Where knowing that I wanted to do the job, I think at first, I mean, honestly, when you're as young as you start having those thoughts, I want to be this or that. When I grow up, I knew I wanted to do this job and Joe is the guy calling all the biggest games. And so I think just by osmosis at first, it was I was learning how to announce by listening to him. And then as I started to really pay attention to it, it's like, yeah, this is how it should sound. This is the guy that, that I want to sound like. So Joe, for sure.

• 2:07:07Speaker 00

  And do you credit Joe? Cause Joe, like, if Joe doesn't go Hollywood and go to ESPN for like $300 billion and be like, I don't like baseball anymore, you might not be able to sit in that chair.

• 2:07:19Speaker 03

  No doubt.

• 2:07:19Speaker 00

  Like he kind of, shout out Joe, right?

• 2:07:22Speaker 03

  Yeah, Joe, thanks, man. Uh, so he, it went from being this guy that I dreamt of being like, to I go to Fox and I get to meet him. And he became and, and still is a mentor and a friend to me. And he for years was saying to me when I was the number two baseball guy, they're like, ah, this will be your chair soon. I'm like, yeah, okay. Like you're going to leave the World Series. You keep telling me that, I'll believe it when I see it. And then I remember when I got that call, my agent called me, whatever this would have been, winter of 22 and said, uh, he's like, hey, you saw the news about Aikman going to ESPN. I was like, yeah, crazy, right? And he's like, dude, you're not thinking like what the next step to that might be. And I was like, no, I'm not. What, what is this?

• 2:08:05Speaker 03

  And he said, there's a chance Buck's going to go with him. And I was like, oh shit. Like, okay, so this, so for a month and a half, because it took forever before it became official. I was on my phone like refreshing social media every five minutes, waiting for an update and just sitting there with bated breath thinking, there's no way he's actually going to do this, right?

• 2:08:25Speaker 00

  Right.

• 2:08:25Speaker 03

  But then he did. So yeah, I want to thank God. I want to thank Joe Buck.

• 2:08:28Speaker 00

  Yeah, yeah.

• 2:08:29Speaker 02

  He, he is the best. Um, when you were growing up and, and you're thinking, hey, I might be a sportscaster one day, the name Joe Davis, it's, it's a good name.

• 2:08:35Speaker 00

  It's a great name.

• 2:08:36Speaker 02

  Solid name. Uh, did you think about like, does that have enough splash? Is that going to stand out enough to, to make me uh, to, you know, get my resume to the top of any piles?

• 2:08:45Speaker 03

  It is so boring, isn't it? It sounds like fake.

• 2:08:48Speaker 00

  It's just a regular, it's like a solid.

• 2:08:50Speaker 02

  It's a good name.

• 2:08:50Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 2:08:51Speaker 02

  It's a good name.

• 2:08:51Speaker 00

  I'd want Joe Davis to like build my house.

• 2:08:53Speaker 03

  Right. But you want him to be like.

• 2:08:55Speaker 00

  Calling game seven of the World Series.

• 2:08:57Speaker 02

  It probably took like five games for me to be like, oh, that's Joe Davis. Like, like, because the name won't, won't jump up at you like a, like a Joe Buck, like Buck is, that's strong.

• 2:09:07Speaker 03

  Sticks.

• 2:09:08Speaker 02

  Buck feels like it's got a period at the end.

• 2:09:09Speaker 03

  You almost for sure. Mine's like dot, dot, dot.

• 2:09:12Speaker 00

  You're great. You're like, you might be AI.

• 2:09:14Speaker 03

  I mean.

• 2:09:15Speaker 00

  He could be.

• 2:09:15Speaker 03

  How would you know? How would you know?

• 2:09:17Speaker 02

  Say something bad about AI.

• 2:09:19Speaker 03

  Not going to do it. Not going to do it. Not taking the bait, boys.

• 2:09:23Speaker 02

  JD Davis would have been a cool name too.

• 2:09:25Speaker 03

  That's cool. That's actually like, uh, you do like the, what the S corp thing, uh.

• 2:09:30Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 2:09:30Speaker 03

  I think JD Davis is my thing. Cause uh D is my middle name.

• 2:09:34Speaker 00

  Okay.

• 2:09:34Speaker 02

  Okay, yeah.

• 2:09:35Speaker 03

  So you're on to something.

• 2:09:36Speaker 02

  JD Davis.

• 2:09:37Speaker 03

  So it's not too late to change.

• 2:09:38Speaker 00

  No, no, definitely not.

• 2:09:40Speaker 03

  Welcome to the World Series, game one of the World Series with John Smoltz. I'm JD Davis.

• 2:09:44Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 2:09:45Speaker 03

  I just say it and like, don't even.

• 2:09:47Speaker 00

  That was really good.

• 2:09:48Speaker 03

  Thanks.

• 2:09:49Speaker 02

  That's, you know what?

• 2:09:50Speaker 00

  That was really good.

• 2:09:51Speaker 02

  Man, that's a Super Bowl voice.

• 2:09:53Speaker 03

  Thanks, dude.

• 2:09:53Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 2:09:54Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 2:09:54Speaker 02

  I can hear that.

• 2:09:55Speaker 00

  Super Bowl name. JD Davis, that's really good.

• 2:09:58Speaker 03

  It's good. I'm going to let that sit. Let's see what the people think.

• 2:10:00Speaker 02

  Do you have to, um, do you have like a, a voice care routine?

• 2:10:04Speaker 03

  Uh, more just like an obsession when you feel the cold coming on, it can't happen, right? So I like, I, I, I got this regimen of stuff. I don't even know what it is, but I'll get ahold of my doctor like I'm getting sick and he's like, okay, go to the pharmacy and I take whatever they got and some giant pills. I don't know what it is, but it knocks it out.

• 2:10:23Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 2:10:24Speaker 03

  You can't get sick, right?

• 2:10:25Speaker 02

  Yeah. Big Cat has one time every year. It's usually around, I'd say like late November, early December. After we've been, you know, in the, in the thick of football season, there'll be one week where Big Cat's.

• 2:10:34Speaker 00

  I lose my voice.

• 2:10:35Speaker 02

  Just goes away. It's like every year like clockwork. It's crazy.

• 2:10:37Speaker 03

  What do you do when you feel it coming on to fight it off the rest of the year?

• 2:10:40Speaker 00

  Down for like two days because I, I, you, I have in years past, just tried to power through and then it just gets so bad. And then everyone's like, dude, this is the worst podcast to listen to. Why are you doing this? So yeah, it's really only like, it, it sucks because you obviously will think about it a lot more because it's, you know, your voice is your job, but we, we're so stupid and we've kind of lucked into this whole thing that I have to remind myself like, oh yeah, your voice is also your job. Like.

• 2:11:06Speaker 03

  You kind of need that.

• 2:11:07Speaker 00

  I need that.

• 2:11:08Speaker 03

  Yeah. But I mean, take a week off. You can take a vacation.

• 2:11:11Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 2:11:12Speaker 03

  Not in the middle of football.

• 2:11:13Speaker 00

  No, no, definitely not. Um, all right. So, so right now you're, you're ready, you're calling the NFL on Sundays and you have baseball playoffs coming up. Is this your like, do you feel it in the air? Like this is about to turn like baseball season? I know you called the Dodgers games.

• 2:11:28Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 2:11:29Speaker 00

  But can you feel it? And you're like, this is about to get real fun, which I'm sure also means very busy.

• 2:11:34Speaker 03

  September is a crazy month where it's the overlap. Like you said, you got the, the NFL on Sundays, still Dodger games. So like I'll have Dodgers Padres this week and then, you know, NFL again this weekend, some Thursday, Fox baseball game. So September's crazy where it's. All three of them together. October at least is, it doesn't usually line up where Sundays are off. On baseball. So I'm all baseball through October. Yeah, this is what it gets busy and crazy and the prep is, is a lot, but I very quickly can remind myself like, oh my God, this is exactly what I dreamt of doing. How lucky am I? So it takes like five seconds to go from, oh, this is a lot to, this is the coolest thing ever.

• 2:12:15Speaker 00

  Yeah. Did you get a, do you get a World Series ring? Are you, are you employed by the Dodgers? Alright, so I'll cross off that Mark Walter question. Do you have two rings?

• 2:12:25Speaker 02

  That's just still clear.

• 2:12:25Speaker 03

  Got three, got the one from 2022.

• 2:12:27Speaker 00

  Okay, well, wait, the 20, wait, 2022 or?

• 2:12:32Speaker 03

  20, 24, 25.

• 2:12:34Speaker 00

  Yeah, just so you know that, 2020?

• 2:12:36Speaker 03

  20.

• 2:12:36Speaker 00

  Does not count.

• 2:12:37Speaker 03

  Yeah, I think at this point they'd kind of be like, yeah, we don't need to claim it, they'd say, cause it's like,

• 2:12:43Speaker 00

  Well, let me ask you a question. If someone was like, hey, let me see your Dodger rings, would you lead with the COVID?

• 2:12:50Speaker 03

  No.

• 2:12:50Speaker 00

  Okay, thank you. I rest my case. You have two legitimate rings.

• 2:12:53Speaker 03

  They're sweet too, but I've never worn them. They sit, they sit in the boxes and people like to see them when they come over to the house or whatever. I just, can you imagine me going to pick up the kids at school or whatever and with those big ass rings on my hand and somebody being like, hey, dang, you won a championship?

• 2:13:10Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 2:13:11Speaker 03

  And I'm like, what? Talked about people winning a championship, but check me out.

• 2:13:15Speaker 00

  Right. And one of these doesn't really count.

• 2:13:17Speaker 03

  Yeah, the 20 is.

• 2:13:19Speaker 00

  Right.

• 2:13:19Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 2:13:20Speaker 02

  So you were, you were on the, on the call in 2022 then?

• 2:13:22Speaker 03

  Uh, wait, say that again?

• 2:13:25Speaker 02

  You were on the call in 2020?

• 2:13:26Speaker 03

  2022, yes.

• 2:13:27Speaker 02

  So the Astros Phillies.

• 2:13:28Speaker 03

  Astros Phillies.

• 2:13:29Speaker 02

  You remember the no hitter?

• 2:13:30Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 2:13:31Speaker 02

  That was a no hitter, right?

• 2:13:32Speaker 03

  I mean, I don't, I, I hate to combine no hitters.

• 2:13:36Speaker 00

  Right, but how many hits did the Phillies get?

• 2:13:38Speaker 03

  They got zero.

• 2:13:39Speaker 00

  Oh.

• 2:13:39Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 2:13:40Speaker 00

  So that's no, that's no hitter, right?

• 2:13:41Speaker 03

  It's a no hitter. I feel like I'm, I'm not meaning to, but I'm answering somebody's argument here.

• 2:13:46Speaker 00

  Yes, you are.

• 2:13:48Speaker 02

  It's not a real no hitter.

• 2:13:49Speaker 00

  You're good picking up on this.

• 2:13:50Speaker 03

  I'm hearing, I'm hearing, it's not a real no hitter and Max, I agree.

• 2:13:53Speaker 00

  In that call, did you say in the Phillies get no hit?

• 2:13:56Speaker 03

  Uh, I, if you listen to the call, I'm like, oh.

• 2:14:00Speaker 02

  Yeah, see, that's exactly, that's the exact way.

• 2:14:02Speaker 00

  Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Now I'm gonna ask Mark Walter question, alright?

• 2:14:05Speaker 03

  Let's go.

• 2:14:06Speaker 00

  You're not gonna agree with us.

• 2:14:07Speaker 02

  You said on the call, it's a no hitter.

• 2:14:09Speaker 03

  I did, yeah.

• 2:14:11Speaker 00

  So you lied?

• 2:14:12Speaker 03

  I guess I lied to the world.

• 2:14:13Speaker 00

  Well, no, but they, they got no hits, right?

• 2:14:15Speaker 03

  It is a no hitter. It's just like a stupid one.

• 2:14:18Speaker 00

  Okay. Great, I agree. Yeah.

• 2:14:20Speaker 03

  You know.

• 2:14:21Speaker 00

  Awesome. But it's still a no hitter, right?

• 2:14:23Speaker 03

  No hitter, technically, yes. Dodgers had one in Mexico a few years ago, uh, combined no hitter. First of all, we're like, they played in Monterrey, Mexico, and we're going to the stadium and there's guys with like machine guns and stuff as we're pulling in. We go into the booth, the booth is, it was like carpeted steps and we sit on one carpeted step and our equipment's on the next, just at the asker of a setup. What happened? Combined no hitter.

• 2:14:51Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 2:14:52Speaker 03

  And I was like, is raining? This is so dumb.

• 2:14:55Speaker 00

  So.

• 2:14:56Speaker 03

  So I don't know what my answer is. No hitter though.

• 2:14:58Speaker 02

  So dumb no hitter?

• 2:14:59Speaker 03

  Dumb no hitter.

• 2:14:59Speaker 02

  Okay, that's fine.

• 2:15:00Speaker 00

  Dumb no hitter, I'm, I'm okay.

• 2:15:02Speaker 03

  I think that's the technical term.

• 2:15:03Speaker 02

  You okay with that?

• 2:15:04Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 2:15:04Speaker 03

  Yeah. Alright.

• 2:15:05Speaker 02

  What was, um, what was the most iconic October moment? The dumb no hitter or, uh, giving, giving everybody in the booth salmonella when you were carving that turkey?

• 2:15:13Speaker 03

  Oh, hey. So, I felt pretty good about that turkey.

• 2:15:18Speaker 02

  You did a good job carving.

• 2:15:19Speaker 03

  Thanks, man.

• 2:15:20Speaker 02

  But you didn't cook it, right?

• 2:15:21Speaker 03

  No, I didn't cook it.

• 2:15:22Speaker 02

  Yeah. Looked a little, a little under.

• 2:15:25Speaker 03

  Well, you know, I think the pinks, the pink, I'm hoping was just like a smoke ring kind of thing. And not salmonella.

• 2:15:34Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 2:15:34Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 2:15:35Speaker 03

  We all did survive.

• 2:15:36Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 2:15:37Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 2:15:37Speaker 00

  Uh, do you ever get, uh, you ever tell Greg Olson to like chill out, dude? You look like too hot sometimes, uh, cause he's a good looking.

• 2:15:45Speaker 03

  Sexy hot?

• 2:15:45Speaker 00

  Yeah, he's a good looking guy. He's a good friend of ours.

• 2:15:47Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 2:15:48Speaker 00

  I don't know if he gave you a scouting report for this show at all.

• 2:15:51Speaker 03

  He did, yeah.

• 2:15:52Speaker 00

  What'd he say? He was like, those guys are also hot?

• 2:15:54Speaker 03

  He, he led with sexy. That was the word he used. I was like, I've seen him.

• 2:15:58Speaker 00

  Yeah, but that Cody wore, what was that last year? Was it as bad in person as it looked on TV? Cause it looked so bad.

• 2:16:05Speaker 02

  It was like, if the pattern, it, it jumped off the page. You looked like a car salesman.

• 2:16:08Speaker 00

  He tried to shame us after, cause he said his wife picked it out.

• 2:16:11Speaker 03

  I was gonna say, I was gonna defend him.

• 2:16:13Speaker 00

  We, we powered through that. We're like, alright, so your wife has bad taste. That's fine.

• 2:16:17Speaker 03

  Ooh, right? What are you trying to do, Greg? He does say though, he's like, we, uh, last week, I remember making the comment, we were at dinner the night before the game and he's like, I, I haven't put a suit on in six months or whatever. And so what's it gonna look like? He's, I don't know. I don't know what suit I have in my bag.

• 2:16:32Speaker 00

  It was this one, remember?

• 2:16:33Speaker 03

  Yeah, that's not great.

• 2:16:34Speaker 00

  It was so bad.

• 2:16:35Speaker 03

  That's not great.

• 2:16:35Speaker 00

  So when he shows up, or do you guys have a relationship? Like he walks in to the booth on game day. Can you say like, oh, dude, what are you doing? Or is it more like, hey Greg, you know,

• 2:16:46Speaker 03

  Tone your suit down. It's like, not your best one. No, I'm like, and he's so like, it's a combination, like you guys said, good looking handsome man and the most disheveled person you've ever met.

• 2:16:58Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 2:16:58Speaker 03

  Hair is everywhere. He's like, he's like a little more put together Chris Farley energy.

• 2:17:05Speaker 00

  But then he just does like one swipe and it's like,

• 2:17:07Speaker 03

  And it's perfect.

• 2:17:08Speaker 00

  That's Greek god.

• 2:17:09Speaker 03

  Yeah. First game I ever worked with him, we were in Atlanta and it was, you know, you go on the air, one, one o'clock or whatever. It's 12:58, 30, 12:59, he's nowhere to be found. I'm standing there wired up, ready to go on the air, like checking my hair, like I think it's pretty good. I hope I have a partner and our producer, Pete Macheska, legend, you guys should have on sometime. He's like, where is he? We got 90 seconds. Where is he? I'm like, I don't know. We give 30 seconds. Where's your partner? And I'm looking and I, I don't see him and Greg comes storming into the room, disheveled, throws his hair like that, sits down, gives me a pound and three, two, one, bam, but there he was looking so good.

• 2:17:51Speaker 00

  He's a pro. Pro's pro.

• 2:17:53Speaker 02

  I think maybe his wife gave him that, that jacket to like, take him down a couple notches.

• 2:17:57Speaker 03

  Right.

• 2:17:57Speaker 02

  She's like, I can't have you looking so hot on TV.

• 2:17:59Speaker 00

  Yeah, get him off the set.

• 2:18:00Speaker 03

  Could be it.

• 2:18:02Speaker 02

  Coat straight out of Shark Tales.

• 2:18:04Speaker 03

  Nobody's gonna like you if you wear this.

• 2:18:06Speaker 02

  You look great in that one, yeah. What's the, um, can you help us understand the, uh, the art to calling a game in terms of when not to say anything? Cause sometimes that's the best when announcers just like know when to let the moment kind of be itself and let it breathe.

• 2:18:19Speaker 03

  Yeah, I, I think it's a feel thing. I think it's easier to do when the team that does the big thing is at home and the crowd's going crazy and um, it's like the, the TV term for it is laying out. That's the, the inside baseball way of putting it, but I don't know, I, I don't have to, I think it kind of becomes innate as you do more games. You just sense that that crowd is almost like a third voice. Cause when that crowd gets rocking, I think that we all have that feeling like this is what we love about sports, right? So to, to say anything in that moment, it's not like you have to have any kind of restraint. It just for me, it, it feels like what you're supposed to do. Like what am I gonna say that's better than 50,000 people losing their minds?

• 2:19:00Speaker 00

  Right. Yeah.

• 2:19:01Speaker 02

  Yeah, it's a good point.

• 2:19:02Speaker 00

  Yeah. Um, I, I'm trying to think, uh, in terms of your iconic, you have a couple iconic, the Freddie Freeman one, right? Did you know, was it, uh, Gibby meet Freddie? Do you know right away, like I nailed it?

• 2:19:17Speaker 03

  I felt pretty good about that.

• 2:19:18Speaker 00

  Yeah, you, you have like a fist pump call? What's your, do you have any others that are like, I fucking nailed that?

• 2:19:25Speaker 03

  Yeah, you definitely, when you, when you get one, you feel like right. Uh, the Bryce Harper homerun in the, uh, NLCS in 2022.

• 2:19:35Speaker 00

  What was that call?

• 2:19:37Speaker 03

  Swing of his life, I said.

• 2:19:38Speaker 00

  That's fucking good. That's awesome.

• 2:19:41Speaker 03

  So I just like, I, I think that it's, when you're doing the championship events, I think it's one thing to get the call right, but then I think there's this responsibility too, to say something that, and this is where Buck is the greatest ever to do it. He doesn't just call it and tell you what happened well. He gives it context that almost like elevates it a little bit, or at least like helps it stand the test of time. And you kind of begin to associate the moment with the call.

• 2:20:10Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 2:20:10Speaker 03

  Um, so I, I think anytime that you can wrap in the context of what this moment means beyond just, oh, go ahead, a homerun for Bryce Harper or a walk off grand slam for Freddie Freeman. Well, no, that's what it is, but what does it mean? So those, yeah, fist pump moments for a play by play guy come, I think when you can give it that added layer of context.

• 2:20:30Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 2:20:30Speaker 02

  Did you ever consider having a catchphrase?

• 2:20:34Speaker 03

  No, um, cause I, I do think that that probably keeps you from that happening some, cause you're putting your thing. And I'm not against having a catchphrase, but just for me, I think if you have that thing that you're gonna slap on a moment, no matter what the moment is, it keeps you from really giving it the context that it's asking for.

• 2:20:54Speaker 00

  Stay fluid. You want to stay fluid.

• 2:20:55Speaker 02

  Yeah. I think some, it has to be natural too. Some guys are catchphrase guys.

• 2:20:59Speaker 03

  Mm-hmm. And it works. Yeah.

• 2:21:01Speaker 02

  Like Mike Breen, when he says bang.

• 2:21:02Speaker 03

  So good.

• 2:21:03Speaker 02

  It works. It's because that's a natural extension of his personality, I think, into the game.

• 2:21:08Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 2:21:08Speaker 02

  Uh, but if you put, can I make, maybe make like one or two suggestions?

• 2:21:11Speaker 03

  Yeah, I already got the JD Davis thing, so what else?

• 2:21:14Speaker 02

  What would JD Davis say? I think he might.

• 2:21:16Speaker 00

  That's a JD guarantee.

• 2:21:17Speaker 02

  I think he might say.

• 2:21:19Speaker 03

  So good, big cat.

• 2:21:21Speaker 02

  I think he might say, uh, it's Jover. What about that? Like, like grand slam, walk off homerun.

• 2:21:27Speaker 03

  It's Jover. Oh, right, yeah.

• 2:21:29Speaker 02

  Yeah, for your name. That way it's like, that's, that's a Joe call.

• 2:21:31Speaker 03

  Right, cause it's got the J in it.

• 2:21:33Speaker 02

  Yeah, exactly. Now you're thinking.

• 2:21:34Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 2:21:34Speaker 02

  Um, what about if a quarterback misses a wide open receiver? Like wide open, nobody within five yards of him running downfield.

• 2:21:42Speaker 03

  That's a.

• 2:21:42Speaker 02

  If he catches that, he's still running.

• 2:21:45Speaker 00

  Hmm.

• 2:21:46Speaker 02

  Like, but you put the emphasis on.

• 2:21:47Speaker 00

  He's still running really.

• 2:21:48Speaker 02

  He's still running. It's got legs. Like it, it really does.

• 2:21:51Speaker 00

  And it's, not only has he's got legs, but the legs are running.

• 2:21:53Speaker 02

  Yeah, still.

• 2:21:54Speaker 00

  He's still running.

• 2:21:55Speaker 03

  Jover throw? Can I just start throwing Jays?

• 2:21:57Speaker 02

  Yeah, why not? Absolutely, yeah.

• 2:21:59Speaker 03

  I think we're onto something, guys.

• 2:22:00Speaker 02

  Think about he's still running though. I think.

• 2:22:01Speaker 00

  He's still running is good.

• 2:22:02Speaker 02

  We've tested that. We've done some focus group.

• 2:22:04Speaker 03

  Okay.

• 2:22:04Speaker 02

  It works.

• 2:22:05Speaker 00

  It has hit.

• 2:22:07Speaker 02

  Critical mass.

• 2:22:08Speaker 00

  Like five out of six of the people on this podcast love it.

• 2:22:11Speaker 03

  For sure.

• 2:22:13Speaker 03

  Yeah, I'm gonna, I'm not even gonna workshop it then. I'm just gonna go with it. Thanks, guys.

• 2:22:16Speaker 00

  Uh, can we talk a little baseball? Because you watch, obviously you're calling the Dodgers, you've seen all these teams. Who's new in the World Series? Are you allowed to say?

• 2:22:26Speaker 03

  It should be.

• 2:22:27Speaker 00

  They give you a script, right?

• 2:22:28Speaker 03

  Best team. Yeah.

• 2:22:29Speaker 00

  They tell you what's gonna happen.

• 2:22:30Speaker 03

  It's just crazy. Like you guys know baseball, especially if you get in that three game wild card series.

• 2:22:36Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 2:22:36Speaker 03

  Good God. Uh, it looks like they're going to avoid that, but even a five game short series, it takes one or two. Bad days and your season's over. I mean, how many times during the regular season do you see the worst team beat the best team? Two out of three. It happens. It happens every few days.

• 2:22:53Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 2:22:53Speaker 03

  So, I mean, I, I think, yes, do you take the Dodgers or you take the field? It's a coin flip. The injuries they're dealing with.

• 2:22:59Speaker 00

  Well, yeah, what's their weakness right now? Like, the, the problem with the Dodgers, and I, I hate the Dodgers and what they've been able to do is that they're going to get in the playoffs and they're just going to convert all of their half-injured starting pitchers who probably have won Cy Youngs in their career to explosive bullpen arms. And you're like, this is bullshit.

• 2:23:17Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 2:23:17Speaker 00

  Like when, when Tyler Glasnow is coming out to pitch in the seventh inning, you're like, this isn't fair. But that's what's gonna happen, right? Aren't they gonna move some of those guys?

• 2:23:26Speaker 03

  Yeah. So you asked what the weaknesses at this point. They are pretty hurt.

• 2:23:29Speaker 00

  Okay.

• 2:23:30Speaker 03

  They are pretty hurt at this point.

• 2:23:31Speaker 00

  Oh, what a shame.

• 2:23:31Speaker 03

  Position, but yeah, to your point, it's like they got the depth where if you're looking at a phase of the team that has issues, it's right-handed relief.

• 2:23:41Speaker 00

  Okay.

• 2:23:42Speaker 03

  But that may get covered up by the way they, like you use Tyler Glasnow as an example. Now, I think that at this point Glasnow is going to be a starter, but as you, game seven of the World Series last year, they all pitched. Every starter pitched. So I think they look at it as not a rotation, a four-man rotation in the postseason. They look at it as a 13-man pitching staff and they're going to cover these, however many games they got to play, however they need to. So yeah, it does become, at times it feels like unfair with how many good arms they have.

• 2:24:12Speaker 02

  Do you have to kind of limit yourself, like how excited you sound if the Dodgers are, are playing well?

• 2:24:17Speaker 03

  Here's the, the, it's not like get less excited for the Dodgers or get more excited for the other team. Cause I really do, I think, if you listen to Dodger games in the regular season, I just really love baseball.

• 2:24:29Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 2:24:29Speaker 03

  I like to get excited for good plays, no matter who's making them. It's more how I'm framing the information. When I'm doing it for Dodger people that are listening to it every day, it's a totally different presentation of the information than it is to a national audience. So like, repositioning all the information in my head, kind of unlearning it and relearning it to present it to a national audience. That's the bigger challenge than get less excited for the Dodgers and get excited for the other team. That makes sense.

• 2:24:57Speaker 00

  Yeah. Now, we like this guy, so feel free to, uh, talk openly with us, but like, at, at any point during the season, you're like, all right, Smoltz, we get it. Like teams that use too many pitchers, it's annoying how the game has changed.

• 2:25:10Speaker 03

  Yeah, I give him a hard time on it. Yeah. It's like, I think a few years ago is, it was, everybody was kind of split, right? You had the old school people and then you had the new school analytics people. Well, I think it shifted to the point where that kind of is baseball. So there are times where I'm like, I'll kind of needle him. Like John, I get it.

• 2:25:29Speaker 00

  But I also like it. I like having the old school still have a voice in this. Cause

• 2:25:33Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 2:25:33Speaker 00

  Otherwise it, sports become almost like devoid of human, like the human interaction, it becomes a spreadsheet and who has the numbers and you put it in a graph and it's like, okay, now that's the winner. Like I want to hear the human side of it.

• 2:25:47Speaker 03

  Totally. And I think that we all sort of yearn for that John Smoltz who's gonna, when he goes seven innings, you're like, why the hell did he only go seven innings? These days we're like, he's through six in a heroic effort, you know? So I think we all do yearn for the stuff that John talks about missing and that John came up doing as well as anybody. So I get it.

• 2:26:06Speaker 02

  Yeah. Do you remember the first time you had to, uh, like sit in a meeting and somebody explained the concept of having an opener to John?

• 2:26:13Speaker 03

  Uh, I, it was, it's so funny you asked that. He talks about, I think it was the Brewers and the CS in 18 and Craig Council maneuvering the way they were against the Dodgers and how frustrated he was and seeing like Wade Miley out there to start a game. Like, what are we doing? So, yeah, no.

• 2:26:34Speaker 00

  Have you, have you, have you ever asked him like, hey, man, the, the ironing, the shirt thing, that was real, right?

• 2:26:40Speaker 03

  I haven't gone there, no.

• 2:26:41Speaker 00

  You got to.

• 2:26:42Speaker 03

  Yeah, yeah.

• 2:26:43Speaker 00

  He denies it. The story obviously goes that he got injured because he burned himself because he was wearing a shirt and ironing it while he was wearing it, which I'll hand up, I've done that. Like I don't, he'll press to your body, but you, you'll touch it up a little here and there.

• 2:26:56Speaker 02

  I do the shoulders sometimes.

• 2:26:57Speaker 00

  Yeah, right.

• 2:26:58Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 2:26:59Speaker 00

  So it's not something, tell, tell him that, come from that angle. Be like, John, we all do this. Like, it's not a big deal, dude. But just like, come on, be honest. You burned yourself.

• 2:27:06Speaker 03

  That's the way to get guys to be honest, right? To kind of lead them into it by being like, we've all done it.

• 2:27:11Speaker 00

  We all do this.

• 2:27:12Speaker 03

  We all iron ourselves.

• 2:27:13Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 2:27:14Speaker 02

  Yeah, I think you have to.

• 2:27:14Speaker 03

  John, it's a safe space.

• 2:27:15Speaker 02

  Do it one day and like lightly, like maybe just burn your, your shoulders a little bit.

• 2:27:20Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 2:27:21Speaker 02

  And then you walk in, he's like, oh, what's that? Be like, ah, it's ironing.

• 2:27:24Speaker 00

  I'm having trouble with my iron.

• 2:27:26Speaker 02

  And then just wait, give that pause and see what he says.

• 2:27:28Speaker 03

  Yeah, right. Just hang it there.

• 2:27:30Speaker 00

  Yeah. You gotta do that. Uh, do you guys have a, a plan, uh, beforehand, what you're going to talk about in a blowout? Because, or just a boring game? I mean, you just called the Bears Vikings game.

• 2:27:40Speaker 03

  So bad.

• 2:27:40Speaker 00

  That was a tough one. Real tough one. Um, that one's different though, because it, it was always close. So you can't, you can't do the, the goof around stuff. But do you have like a plan? Like, hey, when you sit down before a game, hey, if this gets out of hand, here's what we're going to go to.

• 2:27:56Speaker 03

  I think that's just like the, the far reaches of your prep from the week.

• 2:28:01Speaker 00

  Okay.

• 2:28:01Speaker 03

  You more have a plan, at least the way our crew does, that we have a plan coming in really clear what we want to establish. And then you hope the game plays along. And here's the thing, you, you establish these storylines and then if the game follows those storylines, that's your story in the second half. If the game doesn't follow those storylines, that's your story in the second half, right? That the teams are going against what you've laid out. When the blowout happens, that's when, you know, the prep about the, the guy's grandma and you know, his, his, what he did as a kid. That's where that stuff sort of comes. That's less a plan, um, and more just kind of the fruits of the prep that you've done throughout the week. Yesterday though, like that game, I found myself

• 2:28:45Speaker 03

  like pissed off at the rain.

• 2:28:47Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 2:28:48Speaker 03

  You know, we're so excited for this game. I think everybody is to see what this is going to look like. And then you see the rain in the forecast and it's like, yeah, this is going to diminish it a little bit. But nine to three, what the heck?

• 2:29:00Speaker 00

  It was a bad game. The Bears played a bad game. Yeah. It was, it was a tough, tough watch. Especially because you were, you were on the call for the one, the week before one, right? Panthers, Bears?

• 2:29:09Speaker 03

  Uh, we were on, we had Steelers Falcons.

• 2:29:13Speaker 00

  Oh, shit.

• 2:29:14Speaker 03

  So we're on quite a roll, boys.

• 2:29:14Speaker 00

  You might be the cooler.

• 2:29:15Speaker 03

  It might be us.

• 2:29:16Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 2:29:17Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 2:29:18Speaker 00

  Oh, the Joe Davis under?

• 2:29:19Speaker 03

  Oh, no.

• 2:29:20Speaker 02

  Yeah. The Junder might be a thing.

• 2:29:23Speaker 03

  I don't want it to be.

• 2:29:24Speaker 02

  It'd be so much better if you were an over guy.

• 2:29:25Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 2:29:26Speaker 02

  Cause it goes right with the nickname and the catchphrase that we talked about.

• 2:29:28Speaker 00

  We gotta track this.

• 2:29:29Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 2:29:30Speaker 00

  If you're the Junder, just cooling games down left and right.

• 2:29:34Speaker 03

  I don't want that.

• 2:29:35Speaker 00

  That's a problem, Joe.

• 2:29:35Speaker 02

  Did you get, did you have to like work yourself into being excited about Cooper Rush?

• 2:29:40Speaker 03

  How about this? Cooper Rush's quarterback coach, when he was in high school, me.

• 2:29:46Speaker 00

  Oh.

• 2:29:46Speaker 03

  Let's go.

• 2:29:47Speaker 00

  Wait, what?

• 2:29:48Speaker 03

  Let's go.

• 2:29:48Speaker 00

  You coached him?

• 2:29:50Speaker 03

  Yeah, so.

• 2:29:51Speaker 00

  Great job. He's a great quarterback.

• 2:29:52Speaker 03

  Hey, thank you.

• 2:29:53Speaker 00

  Oh, shit. Okay.

• 2:29:55Speaker 03

  All right. Yeah. He, uh, what I'm like, probably four or five years older, small towns, mid Michigan. I was the good small town quarterback that kind of preceded him. So I was playing division three football. He was coming up in high school at that point, starting to get recruited. And when I would come home in the summers, work with him a little bit. So I say quarterback coach, we would go work out together a little bit.

• 2:30:16Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 2:30:17Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 2:30:17Speaker 00

  I mean, that's, that's awesome. Have you told people this?

• 2:30:20Speaker 03

  Our crew knows. I think we've done a little something when we've done Cooper Rush games where they show pictures of us or.

• 2:30:26Speaker 00

  Okay.

• 2:30:27Speaker 03

  Actually, the Lansing State Journal, a couple of weeks ago, my dad sent me this, just had, somebody had a big passing game. And so they put out the 10 greatest passing performances in Lansing area history. Cooper's one, some kid from Stockbridge, who nobody's ever heard of, is number two, but then I've got the number three performance right there.

• 2:30:45Speaker 00

  Oh, hell yeah.

• 2:30:46Speaker 03

  Up against him. Sorry about it.

• 2:30:47Speaker 00

  Okay.

• 2:30:48Speaker 02

  That's actually, that's, that's a very fun fact.

• 2:30:50Speaker 00

  Very fun fact.

• 2:30:51Speaker 03

  That's amazing. You brought up Cooper Rush.

• 2:30:53Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 2:30:53Speaker 02

  Well, I mean, we talk about him a lot.

• 2:30:54Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 2:30:55Speaker 02

  He's one of the biggest stories in the league right now.

• 2:30:57Speaker 00

  Did you, did you do any prep on Jack Strand?

• 2:31:00Speaker 03

  Um, no.

• 2:31:01Speaker 00

  Oh, wow.

• 2:31:02Speaker 03

  I mean, enough to like, if the guy shows up.

• 2:31:05Speaker 00

  So do you know that he's from the, the jump rope capital of the world?

• 2:31:08Speaker 03

  I did not know that. Where were you last week?

• 2:31:10Speaker 00

  You gotta get your Jack Strand going. In case, cause then Falcons might, if they let Jack Strand go, they might, they might become like a real team.

• 2:31:19Speaker 03

  That's what they say. Let Jack Strand cook. That's what they've been saying.

• 2:31:22Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 2:31:23Speaker 02

  What about, um, what about Matt Stafford and, uh, maybe some of his teammates from high school? You know, can you name a single teammate of Matt Stafford's?

• 2:31:31Speaker 03

  Do you guys, I don't know if you know this, but do you know Matt Stafford and Clayton Kershaw are buddies?

• 2:31:38Speaker 00

  That's not believable. That's crazy.

• 2:31:39Speaker 03

  Right?

• 2:31:40Speaker 00

  Nice one, JD. Good one, JD.

• 2:31:42Speaker 03

  So I, I fancy myself as storyteller, guys. So let me spin this yarn for you.

• 2:31:46Speaker 02

  I was talking about Jake Felton. Next time you, you get to that conversation, instead of, you should zig while everyone zags. And here's Clayton Kershaw.

• 2:31:53Speaker 00

  Ask him about it.

• 2:31:54Speaker 02

  Who's that next to him?

• 2:31:54Speaker 03

  Ask him about Jake Felton.

• 2:31:55Speaker 02

  Jake Felton. Jake Felton was really, he was the star, the, the straw that stirred the drink on those teams. We talked to, to Matt about it and he was like, nobody remembers Jake Felton. Scored five touchdowns, state championship.

• 2:32:05Speaker 00

  Yeah, no, Matthew Stafford was like, actually Jake Felton was the best athlete.

• 2:32:08Speaker 03

  What is he doing now?

• 2:32:09Speaker 00

  And then we asked Clayton Kershaw and he was like, yeah, I remember Jake Felton. So.

• 2:32:13Speaker 03

  Do we know what he's doing now?

• 2:32:14Speaker 00

  I think he just works in Texas somewhere.

• 2:32:16Speaker 03

  Okay.

• 2:32:16Speaker 02

  Is he? Okay.

• 2:32:17Speaker 03

  I was like, is that a dumb question?

• 2:32:19Speaker 00

  No, no.

• 2:32:19Speaker 03

  Like back there.

• 2:32:20Speaker 00

  Listen, I, I'm telling you, like they, they both swore by Jake Felton. So it's rare that you have two guys like Matthew Stafford and Clayton Kershaw being like, actually there was another guy.

• 2:32:30Speaker 03

  Yeah, stud.

• 2:32:30Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 2:32:31Speaker 03

  I'm trying to get Kershaw to do TV.

• 2:32:33Speaker 00

  Really?

• 2:32:34Speaker 02

  I think he'd be good at it.

• 2:32:35Speaker 03

  He actually came, he's doing some NBC stuff.

• 2:32:38Speaker 00

  Okay.

• 2:32:39Speaker 03

  But he's just down in the camera well for that, kind of the third guy, the field level analyst. He came to Atlanta a few weeks ago to do a Dodger game with me and really good. It's so cool to see him. Cause you know, we see Kershaw, this intense, uh, competitor throughout his pitching career, but now that he's off of the field, he was like, uh, he was like a 12-year-old boy just watching his favorite sport.

• 2:33:03Speaker 00

  That's awesome.

• 2:33:03Speaker 03

  It was so cool.

• 2:33:04Speaker 00

  Yeah. Um, do you want to hear my joke about your college?

• 2:33:08Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 2:33:08Speaker 00

  Okay. What, what, what is the sound, uh, a fart makes in the bathtub?

• 2:33:14Speaker 03

  Bloat.

• 2:33:15Speaker 00

  Damn. That's all I got for bloat.

• 2:33:17Speaker 02

  That's pretty good.

• 2:33:18Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 2:33:18Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 2:33:18Speaker 00

  You've never heard that one?

• 2:33:19Speaker 03

  I have not. No, but it works.

• 2:33:21Speaker 00

  Yeah, it does, doesn't it? Bloat.

• 2:33:23Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 2:33:23Speaker 00

  That is what a sound of a fart in a bathtub.

• 2:33:25Speaker 03

  Bloat.

• 2:33:26Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 2:33:26Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 2:33:26Speaker 00

  Yeah. That's your college.

• 2:33:28Speaker 03

  That's where I went.

• 2:33:29Speaker 00

  That's all I got. I got a buddy who runs a bloat. So yeah, that's.

• 2:33:31Speaker 03

  Do you?

• 2:33:32Speaker 00

  Yeah. He's, that's just the only joke I got about bloat. That's all I got.

• 2:33:35Speaker 03

  That's all you need though.

• 2:33:36Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 2:33:36Speaker 02

  Do they have a good broadcast?

• 2:33:37Speaker 00

  That was a bad segment by me. That was, that was bloat.

• 2:33:39Speaker 03

  No.

• 2:33:40Speaker 00

  What'd you say?

• 2:33:41Speaker 02

  If they had a good broadcasting school, it's like, no, no, they don't.

• 2:33:43Speaker 03

  No, not at all.

• 2:33:44Speaker 00

  Yeah. I respect the fuck out of you for not being a Syracuse nerd.

• 2:33:48Speaker 03

  Thanks, man. I thought about it. I was like, but no, I'm not going to be a Syracuse nerd. I'm going to go to.

• 2:33:52Speaker 00

  Or a zoo or one of those. Yeah.

• 2:33:54Speaker 03

  So I first, uh, they like, they bring all the freshmen in and then you go to your advisor. My advisor was this phys.

• 2:34:02Speaker 00

  Professor that had a top hat and he was a world-class trumpet player. This guy's going to teach me how to call the World Series for sure. I sit down with him and he said, so, so tell me, he takes his top hat off, tell me, what is it you want to do when you grow up? And he's like, I want to be a play-by-play announcer. And he goes, I have no idea what that is. I'm like, oh shit, I should have gone, I should have been a Syracuse nerd. But I think because it wasn't a broadcasting school, a small school where I could, like anything I wanted to do, I could find somebody who was into helping me try to chase that down. Yeah, that's cool. Cause that is, you do, it does feel like Syracuse, Northwestern, Missouri, they just kind of churn out. For sure.

• 2:34:46Speaker 00

  Everyone. And it's cool to have someone who, uh, you know, the sound of a fart in a bathtub.

• 2:34:50Speaker 02

  That's right. Yeah. So, so how did you get, how'd you break into the business going to Boy?

• 2:34:54Speaker 00

  Boy? Well, I told him, you guys know where I went. And they're like, oh yeah, I've heard that, I've heard that.

• 2:35:02Speaker 00

  I, I, I knew what I wanted to do. I think that was a big part of it. So I got there and right away was doing everything I could. When I did graduate, be where I think a lot of guys are a few years after they graduate. So ready to take that big job right out of college. And, um, you know, I, my first job was with the Montgomery Biscuits. Double A at the Tampa Bay. You guys got to get like some kind of biscuit thing in here.

• 2:35:29Speaker 02

  Yeah, I've seen, uh, I've seen their hats. Their hats are great.

• 2:35:32Speaker 00

  They're sweet, right? It's in the, the mascot is an actual biscuit with eyes, slab of butter for a tongue. So that was a huge deal. Got that gig. I was like, I'm the voice of the biscuits. What's up? Got that right out of college. I think that, I don't know, just, uh, just kind of having that foresight, knowing what I wanted to do to set myself up to get a gig like that right out of college. Kind of the springboard to get going.

• 2:35:55Speaker 02

  Yeah. Did you, were there other, other teams that made you an offer? And you're like, I like what the biscuits are doing.

• 2:36:00Speaker 00

  Yeah, yeah, right.

• 2:36:01Speaker 05

  Biscuits are just too delicious to pass.

• 2:36:03Speaker 00

  That's right. It tastes way too good. Uh, I was going, so how about this? You guys are like this. I was, summer before my senior year of college, Schaumburg Flyers, old, uh, Okay. Northern League team. I worked there and they were starting a new franchise, the Lake County Fielders. Kevin Costner was part owner of this team. I think I vaguely remember. Yeah, well, this became a whole thing. I used that summer before I was going to graduate in December. That was part of the deal too. I graduated early, so I could be ready to take a full season baseball job right away as opposed to graduate in May. You got to wait a full year. So I used that whole 2009 summer to try and impress the ownership group at the Flyers because they were teaming up with Costner,

• 2:36:46Speaker 00

  opening up the Lake County Fielders. And I had this job landed. I was going to be the voice of the Lake County Fielders. I got the biscuits job, so I didn't do that. Well, you fast forward to the next summer, Lake County Fielders, the franchise starts, but they don't actually get the stadium built. I'm not sure Costner ever really was that involved. And the broadcaster who they wound up hiring quit mid-game on the air, pissed off that they weren't paying them. I'm sure you can still go find the clip.

• 2:37:19Speaker 02

  I love that. That's a great move.

• 2:37:20Speaker 00

  Yeah, they were playing and they're playing in some kind of local muni ballpark. He's sitting in the bleachers calling these games as the voice of the fielders and he just quit. That's a power move. Like, had I not gotten that biscuits job, who knows? Yeah. Yeah. Shout out to biscuits. Thanks, guys.

• 2:37:36Speaker 02

  Yeah. Doors moment.

• 2:37:37Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 2:37:38Speaker 02

  And so right when you start working for the biscuits, are you already looking for your next job? Cause I don't think anybody gets into calling, you know, minor league baseball as, you know, the destination or as like the end of um, their advancement as, as a play-by-play guy. So like, how quickly do you start applying for other jobs while you're working for the biscuits?

• 2:37:55Speaker 00

  Right away. I'm kind of a maniac like that where it was, I went down there and did, you know, I was making 16 grand a year to these biscuits games. And so you had to do other stuff. I was doing, uh, there was a studio in Auburn where the Baylor pre and post-game show was run out of. So I was the pre and post guy for the Baylor Bears. Okay. That I would do during the winter. I ran camera for the local WSFA 12 morning show. That's when I got into coffee with a 5:00 AM morning show and I was on the camera just doing this. Like just to the left, a little to the right, just mind-numbing stuff for two hours each morning, doing those gigs.

• 2:38:38Speaker 00

  But also doing whatever I could to announce high school sports, build the TV reel and make as many connections as I could. I did some games. Grinding, yeah. Yeah, just trying to like, but it's kind of a catch 22 as you're trying to get into TV, or at least it was then. How do you get the TV tape without showing that you can do TV? And how do you show you can do TV if you don't get the chance to do it? So like whatever I could, these, these stupid looking one-camera high school webcasts that I would do and turn into reels and one thing led to another and just did three years in Montgomery. That's awesome. The voice unlocked you. Um, all right. Well, JD, this has been awesome. You're JD now forever. I love that.

• 2:39:22Speaker 00

  Uh, a Roback question, R H O B A C K dot com promo code take, I'm wearing it right now. Roback, uh, great hoodies, polos, joggers, everything, roback.com promo code take. Zach.

• 2:39:32Speaker 05

  How you doing today, sir?

• 2:39:33Speaker 00

  Zach.

• 2:39:33Speaker 05

  What's going on, man? I did have a quick question.

• 2:39:35Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 2:39:36Speaker 05

  Is there a, thinking back through your career, is there a call that got away that maybe you, uh, you think back and you're like, I would like to have that one back and run it again?

• 2:39:42Speaker 00

  Good question. So game seven last year.

• 2:39:48Speaker 00

  I didn't, like, I don't think that I missed anything or had a specific call where it was like I blew that in game seven. There's, there's plenty of calls I've blown through the years, but game seven was one last year where it's like, I think I came into it. It was my first game seven. And I think I made it into something bigger than, maybe not bigger than it was, but bigger than I should have where I was like, okay, game seven. So what have I waited my whole life for? And then I kind of came in gripping the wheel a little bit too tight. And then the game was what it was, which was just insane. So I had this feeling of kind of chasing my tail the whole night, didn't feel the way you want to feel. So like game three last year, 18 innings, that was so much fun.

• 2:40:31Speaker 00

  Cause it's like World Series game, rarely can you kind of let you, let yourself just be yourself and have fun. You had no choice but to do that in an 18 inning game. Game seven was different where it's like that, oh God, just trying to hang on for dear life feeling, uh, that, you know, I would like to have back. I, I hope to get another game seven to try and do that a little bit differently.

• 2:40:51Speaker 05

  We gotta get you another game seven.

• 2:40:52Speaker 00

  Let's go. Can we make that happen? You guys are pretty, pretty powerful.

• 2:40:57Speaker 02

  Some strings for sure. You got anything else, Zach?

• 2:40:59Speaker 00

  Do you, go ahead, Zach.

• 2:41:01Speaker 05

  Uh, uh, yeah. Quick follow-up. Do you consider yourself a better pit master or broadcaster? Cause I, I see an extensive history of barbecue online.

• 2:41:07Speaker 00

  Thanks, man. Oh. I was hoping you guys would go there.

• 2:41:14Speaker 00

  I'm feeling pretty good about my cooking stuff, you know? There's just no way, JD, no offense, there's just no way you're a better pit master than broadcaster. You're one of the best broadcasters, just statistically speaking, in the game.

• 2:41:25Speaker 02

  In the world.

• 2:41:26Speaker 00

  You're not one of the best pit masters. I guarantee you, there's just no way.

• 2:41:31Speaker 02

  What do you cook?

• 2:41:32Speaker 00

  Come on. I mean, the holy grill is brisket.

• 2:41:36Speaker 00

  Better than that one in Toronto.

• 2:41:38Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 2:41:38Speaker 00

  Right?

• 2:41:38Speaker 02

  So you're a brisket guy?

• 2:41:40Speaker 00

  I try to be.

• 2:41:41Speaker 02

  Okay. Is that like Lincoln Riley brisket? Like how?

• 2:41:43Speaker 00

  I don't know about this. Does he, does he try and it's not good?

• 2:41:46Speaker 02

  It's, it's a little grayish. Yeah. Um, how long do you, how long do you smoke it for?

• 2:41:50Speaker 00

  However, long it takes. No way.

• 2:41:53Speaker 02

  Kind of the right answer.

• 2:41:54Speaker 00

  Come on. Yeah. Come on, Joe. Zach, tell them.

• 2:41:57Speaker 02

  What kind of wood?

• 2:41:59Speaker 05

  I mean, there's some smoke rings on these, uh, these meats look pretty good.

• 2:42:02Speaker 02

  You a mesquite guy?

• 2:42:03Speaker 00

  I feel like that overpowers it, especially poultry. You're not doing mesquite, doesn't need that. Then it just becomes mesquite taste in turkey. Um, big green egg is my, my go-to. Okay. Um, I don't have as much time to do it these days, just three young kids and, you know, the, the work and everything, but I, if, if I screw up and say something I shouldn't say on the air and they get canned, I think I'm going to open up my own. Okay. And just do that. I just love that. That, yeah.

• 2:42:34Speaker 02

  Even do your own sauce now while you're on the air.

• 2:42:36Speaker 00

  Hmm.

• 2:42:37Speaker 02

  And then just have it like right next to you in the background.

• 2:42:39Speaker 00

  What do we call the sauce?

• 2:42:41Speaker 02

  We'll have a workshop. I don't, I actually don't have a name for the sauce yet, but we can think of one.

• 2:42:45Speaker 00

  Yeah, we can. You guys come up with that? Yeah. Did you, do you, do you, uh, last, last question, do you, do you keep a scorecard for every baseball game? Do you do it while you're calling the game? Mm-hmm. I don't know. You kind of have to though, like to be able to tell the, no? I, I understand, but I would just get distraught. I don't know. I don't know if I could write and talk.

• 2:43:04Speaker 05

  Have you ever kept score for?

• 2:43:05Speaker 00

  Yes.

• 2:43:06Speaker 05

  Oh, keeping scores the best.

• 2:43:07Speaker 00

  I'm not saying it's not. I'm saying his ability to stay, to like, write down exactly what's happening while also talking. I'm too stupid to write and talk at the same time. I bet you would find though, that it would be like, I can't picture the other way. Yeah. Where it's like, I can't picture being able to tell you what's happening in the game. Okay. Yeah. I guess it's a really good way to like detail and follow it along, but I just, yeah, I don't know. Speaking on, on a mic while, while writing is just, that's a fan shit. It's a lot. Graduate level stuff. Yeah.

• 2:43:38Speaker 02

  What about drinking a beer? Joe Buck told us he drank a beer one time.

• 2:43:41Speaker 00

  Hey, how about this? Um, Brady Quinn, who, when I, I grew up as a quarterback, Notre Dame fan, wanting to be the next Brady Quinn. And then Brady became my partner at Fox. You're talking, you think Greg's handsome. Yeah, no, he's. Right? Like, what are we doing? Yeah.

• 2:43:58Speaker 00

  Brady, we would, his first couple of years doing games, he'd be really good once we got into the game, but he was really tense and uptight.

• 2:44:07Speaker 03

  First couple of series. So we would put a little beer, we'd, we'd open up one beer, half a beer here, half a beer there, unmarked cups. And not to like, get drunk while we're doing the game, but more just to put him in that mindset of like, we're two dudes.

• 2:44:22Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 2:44:23Speaker 03

  At the bar, watching the game. And he got so much better, not because we were feeling anything, but because he just, he kinda had that idea like, alright, let's chill.

• 2:44:31Speaker 00

  Yeah, yeah, I, yeah, I agree. Max, I, I, I'm stuck on, you, you can't, like, you'll flip, you'll start flipping a coin. If I put anything around you while we're doing the show, you get distracted.

• 2:44:42Speaker 03

  But keeping score to a baseball game, especially if you do it every single time you call a baseball game, it's like, there's no thought that goes into it.

• 2:44:48Speaker 00

  I guess, I'm just saying like, the actual writing would just, would fuck me up.

• 2:44:52Speaker 03

  But it's like a die.

• 2:44:53Speaker 00

  I know, I know.

• 2:44:54Speaker 03

  And I'm also not like, writing a novel or anything, you know, six, three.

• 2:44:57Speaker 00

  Yeah, no, I know, you're just filling it in, yeah.

• 2:45:00Speaker 03

  It's really not that impressive what I do. Thanks, man.

• 2:45:01Speaker 00

  I'm impressed, I'm impressed. I can't do two things at the same time.

• 2:45:04Speaker 02

  It does probably help you focus on the game too.

• 2:45:06Speaker 00

  For sure.

• 2:45:07Speaker 02

  If you write it, it's like taking notes in class. It's like, you remember it more if you, if you jot it down.

• 2:45:11Speaker 03

  Yeah, and if, if, you know, Trey Turner comes up, and I need to tell you about the day Trey Turner's had, I now have, by having written this stuff down, exactly when and what.

• 2:45:21Speaker 00

  Do you write in like pinch hitters and changes in the, in, that's where I'd get screwed up.

• 2:45:26Speaker 03

  That, I agree with that.

• 2:45:26Speaker 00

  That's where I, where I'm starting to write names down of like, who's pinch hitting, or who's moving to, you know, wherever they're moving in the field, that would fuck me up.

• 2:45:34Speaker 03

  You gotta come hang out in the booth during a game sometime. Sit right there.

• 2:45:38Speaker 00

  I like that.

• 2:45:39Speaker 03

  Let's go.

• 2:45:39Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 2:45:40Speaker 03

  I'll teach you how to do that.

• 2:45:40Speaker 00

  Cubs might make a run, we'll see.

• 2:45:42Speaker 03

  What do you think?

• 2:45:43Speaker 00

  Uh, pitching is so bad, and Bregman, the freakiest injury ever, yeah. So, and he's so important. But, chip in the chair, when it comes to, when it comes to the baseball playoffs, just get in the dance.

• 2:45:55Speaker 03

  Yeah, no doubt.

• 2:45:56Speaker 00

  You know, it's like, guys can get hot, you never know. And PCA's been electric, so.

• 2:46:00Speaker 03

  So good.

• 2:46:01Speaker 00

  Yeah, yeah. Um, that was a lot of fun. Anytime you're around, stop on by and, uh, we're excited to watch some baseball with you this, uh, October.

• 2:46:09Speaker 03

  Well, we, we would both win. The Cubs make a little run.

• 2:46:12Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 2:46:12Speaker 03

  I'll be in Chicago.

• 2:46:13Speaker 00

  Yep.

• 2:46:14Speaker 03

  Come back, talk some more baseball.

• 2:46:15Speaker 00

  Get some ice cream.

• 2:46:16Speaker 03

  Football.

• 2:46:16Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 2:46:17Speaker 03

  Let's go.

• 2:46:17Speaker 00

  Yeah, love it. Thanks, man.

• 2:46:18Speaker 03

  Thank you for having me.

• 2:46:21Speaker 00

  Okay, before we get to guys on chicks, Lucy, the Lucy Breakers are intense, long-lasting flavor that actually satisfies. I got the Lucy in my pocket right now. Bite and burst tech. Bite down to pop the capsule for a satisfying click and rush of fresh flavor. Breakers flavors are built to stay vivid from start to finish. Apple turns icy, berry gets a blast of citrus. And mint gets even more minty, creating a refreshing flavor experience that lasts longer and stays more interesting than ordinary pouches I got right now. Let me see what I got. I have the, uh, apple ice in my pocket. Lucy is the go-to. Lucy's the only pouch that delivers long-lasting, on-demand flavor.

  Get 20% off your first order when you buy online at lucy.co slash PMT with code PMT. And here comes the, uh, fine print, warning this product contains nicotine and nicotine is an addictive chemical. All right, Hank, guys, oh, we should have mentioned, by the way, uh, shout out the Atlanta Falcons for saving us, because Michael Penix is back.

• 2:47:21Speaker 02

  Yep, love that.

• 2:47:22Speaker 00

  That is so huge.

• 2:47:23Speaker 02

  Love that, because if it wasn't going to be him, um, I saw that there was one quarterback out there that is advocating for them to get that job.

• 2:47:30Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 2:47:30Speaker 02

  We've got at least one volunteer. Do you know who that quarterback is?

• 2:47:33Speaker 00

  Who?

• 2:47:34Speaker 02

  I'll just, I'll, I'll just read the tweet, you guess who this is from. When Cooper Rush and Jack Strand are stinking up in Atlanta, it makes zero sense that quarterbacks like Cam Newton, Jimmy Garoppolo, Ryan Tannehill, and myself aren't the veteran presence in the locker room to stabilize teams when their quarterback goes down.

• 2:47:49Speaker 04

  Kaepernick.

• 2:47:51Speaker 02

  Nope.

• 2:47:52Speaker 03

  Chad Kelly.

• 2:47:53Speaker 02

  RG3.

• 2:47:53Speaker 00

  Oh.

• 2:47:54Speaker 02

  RG3, so RG3 is available for the Falcons job.

• 2:47:56Speaker 00

  Okay.

• 2:47:57Speaker 02

  If, if you're interested.

• 2:47:58Speaker 00

  What were you laughing at memes?

• 2:47:59Speaker 03

  Uh, Max dropped his ring under the table during the Lucy ad read, and then his entire ass was out. But I said before, I went under there, I was like, my ass is gonna be out, don't look at it.

• 2:48:10Speaker 00

  Oh, you gave a warning.

• 2:48:11Speaker 02

  He just tattle on, on his ass?

• 2:48:12Speaker 00

  Well, I just, I looked and memes was like smirking, I was like, what's going on?

• 2:48:16Speaker 03

  Yeah, and I tripped a little bit coming back. Zach, to my defense. The ring could have been further under this table.

• 2:48:23Speaker 00

  Yeah. We need better discipline in the booth to turn the mics on and let us know.

• 2:48:26Speaker 03

  No, but it was made, it was made.

• 2:48:28Speaker 00

  Mid-ad, I get that, I get that.

• 2:48:32Speaker 00

  But it's, it drives me nuts when you guys are just laughing, like, say it, let's, let's laugh together.

• 2:48:36Speaker 02

  I have some breaking moves.

• 2:48:37Speaker 00

  Yeah, breaking moves.

• 2:48:45Speaker 02

  Aaron Judge is likely out for the wildcard series.

• 2:48:48Speaker 00

  Ooh, fuck.

• 2:48:49Speaker 02

  That's the correct response for an injury.

• 2:48:50Speaker 00

  You hate, yeah, Hank, you hate that, right?

• 2:48:54Speaker 04

  That sucks.

• 2:48:55Speaker 00

  You always want to play the best, right?

• 2:48:57Speaker 02

  Is, you root against injuries harder than any man.

• 2:49:00Speaker 00

  So hard.

• 2:49:01Speaker 04

  Yeah, I mean, like, this is, this is, you play all these games to make it to the playoffs, and then

• 2:49:05Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 2:49:06Speaker 04

  Go up against a guy, Aaron Judge, although, that might be better for the Yankees. He's terrible in the playoffs.

• 2:49:13Speaker 02

  Good point.

• 2:49:13Speaker 00

  Ewing Theory? I, has he been, he's had a couple of really good playoffs.

• 2:49:18Speaker 02

  He had a walk-off home run.

• 2:49:19Speaker 00

  He had like, playoffs where he was the only one who hit.

• 2:49:23Speaker 03

  I think as a whole, he hasn't been great.

• 2:49:25Speaker 00

  I, I, but no, but do I not remember?

• 2:49:27Speaker 02

  Last time he had that one.

• 2:49:29Speaker 04

  The World Series when he just

• 2:49:31Speaker 00

  Yes.

• 2:49:31Speaker 04

  Lost, lost them the World Series.

• 2:49:33Speaker 02

  He had, he had that good opening round game last year, and then

• 2:49:37Speaker 00

  I mean, I'm remembering one that he, I'm remembering a specific playoffs where he is hitting like 700 and no one else on the team was good.

• 2:49:44Speaker 03

  236 career playoff.

• 2:49:46Speaker 00

  Right, but is there one?

• 2:49:48Speaker 02

  Recently, he's been better.

• 2:49:49Speaker 03

  822 OPS is pretty fine.

• 2:49:52Speaker 00

  421 batting average.

• 2:49:54Speaker 03

  That was in 2018.

• 2:49:55Speaker 00

  Okay, maybe that's what I'm thinking about.

• 2:49:57Speaker 03

  In last year.

• 2:49:58Speaker 00

  Oh, okay, maybe that's, yeah, last year he was awesome.

• 2:50:02Speaker 03

  13 for 26 last year, yeah.

• 2:50:04Speaker 00

  Yeah, yeah, okay. Yes, I know he, uh, has still not gotten his pin stripes.

• 2:50:11Speaker 00

  And he won't this year, if he doesn't play.

• 2:50:14Speaker 02

  So he just had

• 2:50:15Speaker 00

  Or, what if the, if the, if the Yankees win the World Series, Aaron Judge, if Aaron Judge gets pin stripes, because he was

• 2:50:21Speaker 02

  No, that's the funniest possible outcome.

• 2:50:22Speaker 00

  Yeah, but it also, like, you'd have to give him pin stripes for being like, thanks for sitting out, knowing that we're better without you, like Hank said.

• 2:50:28Speaker 02

  I think like, horizontal pin stripes.

• 2:50:30Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 2:50:32Speaker 04

  All right, three long ones. I have a question on how I should handle myself as the first and only female working in a city's public service department. Blue collar job, 26 men and myself, road work, garbage service, and parks maintenance. I can joke and bust balls like the guys. I don't get offended until you talk about my work. 90% of the guys are great, 10% of the guys have no use for me. Now I want to go and just tell those douchebags off, but I don't want to go to their level. What are some things I could or should do to basically tell them to fuck off and worry about their lazy, sorry asses? I'm not sure if this is what you want, but love y'all guys, you make me laugh a lot.

• 2:51:10Speaker 00

  That's a serious question.

• 2:51:11Speaker 02

  Mm-hmm. I feel like that's a, almost a better question for Jerry.

• 2:51:14Speaker 00

  I also

• 2:51:15Speaker 02

  Blue collar with Jerry.

• 2:51:16Speaker 00

  Yeah, that was, uh, I mean, it's fair, like, she, you would, like, busting balls is one thing, but being like, you're bad at your job, that would, that would piss you off.

• 2:51:24Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 2:51:25Speaker 00

  You know?

• 2:51:25Speaker 02

  Um, I don't know, I think, I feel like you have to just, it's not fair, but do their job better than they can.

• 2:51:31Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 2:51:31Speaker 02

  And then they'll get naturally embarrassed.

• 2:51:33Speaker 00

  Show them up. Yeah, be like, hey, do you need me to help you with this?

• 2:51:36Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 2:51:37Speaker 00

  Ooh, maybe get, maybe do one of those, uh, you know, those like weird challenges where, um, a woman, a woman can do it, but a man can't, like, lifting up a chair to their chests, because we just have different hip muscles, do one of those. Make them look really, really weak. I think it's like when you put your head on a, a wall, and then you lift the chair to your

• 2:51:59Speaker 02

  Yeah, you can't do that. You can't, you can't get on your hands and knees and then take your hands away and put your head on the ground.

• 2:52:05Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 2:52:06Speaker 02

  And keeping your hands off the ground, lift your head up.

• 2:52:08Speaker 00

  Do one of those, embarrass the boys.

• 2:52:09Speaker 02

  Yeah. Or like, what's another, one of those challenges? Uh, ask for directions somewhere.

• 2:52:13Speaker 00

  Mm-hmm.

• 2:52:16Speaker 00

  Oh, also, you could just say, if one of them gets upset about something, just be like, what are you, on your period? That always plays.

• 2:52:23Speaker 02

  Yeah, that'll be a good one.

• 2:52:24Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 2:52:25Speaker 02

  Fight fire with fire.

• 2:52:26Speaker 00

  Mm-hmm.

• 2:52:27Speaker 04

  My boyfriend recently got a job coaching the JV football team in his old high school. I was excited for him, but now it's consumed his life. Every moment of the day, even at work, and especially at home, he's watching film on 13 and 14-year-olds playing football. He can't even hold regular conversations in public without bringing up how he coaches JV football team. How do I go about this?

• 2:52:46Speaker 02

  I mean, that's, this guy rocks.

• 2:52:49Speaker 00

  Yeah, what's the problem?

• 2:52:50Speaker 02

  This guy, this is a football guy.

• 2:52:52Speaker 00

  It sounds like you're just not ready to be a football wife.

• 2:52:54Speaker 02

  It sounds like she's not a football guy.

• 2:52:55Speaker 00

  Like, hey, listen, you might have to move towns. That's just part of the job.

• 2:53:00Speaker 02

  But then he might, like, really, really, yeah, you mean like pack up?

• 2:53:04Speaker 00

  Yeah, yeah.

• 2:53:04Speaker 02

  Yeah, get the kids out of school.

• 2:53:06Speaker 00

  No, I'm saying, yeah, like, you might, he might get a better job. Here's what you gotta do, you gotta be the football coach at home, while he's a football coach for these 13 and 14-year-old boys.

• 2:53:15Speaker 02

  Get a whistle.

• 2:53:16Speaker 00

  You gotta call the plays at home.

• 2:53:18Speaker 02

  Yeah, say, hey, dinner, 6:30 PM sharp.

• 2:53:21Speaker 00

  You're the boss.

• 2:53:21Speaker 02

  And if you're late, if you're five minutes early, you're actually 10 minutes late.

• 2:53:25Speaker 00

  Yeah, just let them have fun.

• 2:53:28Speaker 00

  Sounds like a good hobby.

• 2:53:29Speaker 02

  It sounds like there's a lot of women out there that I think would love for their husbands to be passionate and have a hobby that takes them out of the house every night.

• 2:53:36Speaker 00

  Makes them excited, yeah.

• 2:53:39Speaker 04

  My fiance and his friends keep planning yearly trips to Key West, Florida during the Masters weekend. While they're there, they like to go see this band called The Dirtbags, D U R T B A G S, who apparently play every night and take requests. Now, my fiance is trying to convince me to get The Dirtbags for our wedding, whatever the cost.

• 2:53:57Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 2:53:58Speaker 04

  I'm not sure they will match the vibes for all our guests, but he seems dead sad that this will make our wedding. What are my options for persuading him to go with a traditional DJ or?

• 2:54:06Speaker 00

  No.

• 2:54:07Speaker 04

  And leaving The Dirtbags in Key West?

• 2:54:09Speaker 00

  Live bands are awesome.

• 2:54:11Speaker 02

  Yes.

• 2:54:11Speaker 00

  At weddings.

• 2:54:12Speaker 02

  And this sounds like?

• 2:54:13Speaker 04

  But like flying in a, uh, it sounds like it's just like a cover band at a bar?

• 2:54:18Speaker 02

  Yeah, but that, The Dirtbags have a special place in their heart.

• 2:54:20Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 2:54:21Speaker 04

  To his, just his heart.

• 2:54:22Speaker 00

  He takes requests, though. The Dirtbags take requests.

• 2:54:25Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 2:54:26Speaker 00

  So you can play anything.

• 2:54:27Speaker 02

  It's, it's funny that, this sounds like a guy that said, this is the one thing that he'll work on at the wedding.

• 2:54:31Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 2:54:31Speaker 02

  Like, he's gonna dedicate as much time as you are to like every other tiny detail with, like, what kind of chairs you're gonna get, what kind of flowers. He's like, I'll handle the live music, honey. And he just has one band in his mind.

• 2:54:43Speaker 04

  It also just sounds like something-

• 2:54:44Speaker 02

  Because he got drunk like three years ago.

• 2:54:45Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 2:54:46Speaker 02

  And had an incredible time at this bar.

• 2:54:48Speaker 04

  Him and the boys love The Dirtbags.

• 2:54:50Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 2:54:50Speaker 04

  And he's like, oh, the boys will love this.

• 2:54:53Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 2:54:54Speaker 04

  But she's like, I've never fucking seen this band.

• 2:54:56Speaker 00

  I'm looking at The Dirtbags, they're cool.

• 2:54:58Speaker 02

  Do you think that they have like an alter ego for formal occasions for weddings?

• 2:55:02Speaker 00

  One of them has a mohawk.

• 2:55:03Speaker 02

  Or maybe it's not Dirtbags?

• 2:55:04Speaker 00

  Yeah. Yeah, change, change your band name to something else. The Wedding Band.

• 2:55:10Speaker 02

  The Wedding Dirtbags.

• 2:55:12Speaker 00

  The solo Key West, I love these guys. Yeah, you gotta have The Dirtbags. I'm sold.

• 2:55:17Speaker 02

  Maybe-

• 2:55:18Speaker 00

  That's a perfect band for your wedding.

• 2:55:19Speaker 02

  Yeah. I like that their font is the Beatles font, except it's The Dirtbags.

• 2:55:25Speaker 04

  Oh, and they perform at Dirty Harry's, D U R T Y Harry's. So like, they're, they're the in-house band.

• 2:55:31Speaker 00

  Love that.

• 2:55:31Speaker 04

  At Dirty Harry's.

• 2:55:32Speaker 02

  Maybe if they're listening to us right now, they, we can work out some sort of discount.

• 2:55:36Speaker 00

  Yeah.

• 2:55:37Speaker 02

  In addition for, uh, one more promotion on Part of My Take.

• 2:55:41Speaker 00

  Dirtbags, go play this guy's wedding. All right, numbers.

• 2:55:47Speaker 00

  Three.

• 2:55:48Speaker 03

  One. Eight.

• 2:55:52Speaker 03

  Uh, the boys.

• 2:55:54Speaker 00

  Hank?

• 2:55:55Speaker 03

  I'm waiting for Hank.

• 2:55:56Speaker 04

  I'm waiting for his hand.

• 2:55:57Speaker 02

  Why are you waiting for me?

• 2:56:00Speaker 02

  Sixty-nine.

• 2:56:01Speaker 03

  Uh, for Cole.

• 2:56:04Speaker 04

  Memes?

• 2:56:06Speaker 03

  I'll go eighteen.

• 2:56:06Speaker 00

  There you go, memes. You knew you were gonna do it. What?

• 2:56:15Speaker 04

  I'll go eight.

• 2:56:16Speaker 03

  Eighty-six. Mariota.

• 2:56:18Speaker 00

  Sixty-nine.

• 2:56:19Speaker 03

  Sixty-nine's been taken.

• 2:56:20Speaker 02

  Fifteen.

• 2:56:21Speaker 00

  Sorry, Colton. Thirty-nine.

• 2:56:23Speaker 03

  What'd you take? No.

• 2:56:27Speaker 03

  Fifteen. Eighty-six for Shane.

  Eighty-three.

• 2:56:54Speaker 03

  Last one, last one of the day. Who's gonna get it? Maybe thirty-nine. Be a real shame if it was sixty-nine.

  Come on.

• 2:57:08Speaker 00

  Peyton Manning?

  Caleb.

  Yeah, I'd say eighteen. Peyton Manning, for sure.

  It's a hundred percent.

  Eighty-eight.

  Eighty-eight?

• 2:57:21Speaker 02

  It's a funner.

• 2:57:22Speaker 03

  I'd pick eighty-eight.

• 2:57:23Speaker 02

  I've been picking, I've been picking eighty-eight almost like every day.

• 2:57:26Speaker 03

  Yeah, maybe you should've picked it.

• 2:57:27Speaker 00

  No.

• 2:57:29Speaker 03

  Maybe you shouldn't have tried to steal Colton's number.

• 2:57:30Speaker 02

  Yeah, maybe you shouldn't have tried that.

• 2:57:32Speaker 00

  Honestly, yeah.

• 2:57:32Speaker 02

  Have you thought about that?

• 2:57:33Speaker 00

  Yeah, that's karma.

• 2:57:33Speaker 03

  Have you ever thought about it?

• 2:57:34Speaker 02

  How about, did you think about that?

• 2:57:35Speaker 00

  I'm thinking about that right now, and you make a great point. Shouldn't have done it.

• 2:57:38Speaker 03

  No.

• 2:57:39Speaker 00

  My bad. Uh, happy birthday to John Harbaugh. Happy birthday to Marty Schottenheimer. Happy birthday to Marvin Lewis. Chris Johnson.
