I'll have him call tomorrow and give us his specials for the week and what they're with their lean on we will see them Thursday night Thursday afternoon evening from 4 to 8 will be live from Mary Ellen's food food so exciting this is a busy week uh Wednesday wing stop for Sean Captain Show delicious Thursday night at Lincoln's pub apparently delicious we're actually we're at Dachshackshack which is the same location just side by side, but the Daxack portion.

It's all right there. We'll bring some volleyball players for that one, talking trash. Two hours. We'll do that. Signed some auditors, take some pictures. I know it's late. But for the folks that are going to be around, come hang out. Thursday, Mary Ellen's Food for the Soul, 4 to 8.

We'll get that through. Delicious. As well. Why don't we do 4 to 9? I don't understand. I just thought about that. I'm not sure. That's a weird thing I just thought about it.

Because are Priscilla and I going to be out there? Yeah. So we're just cutting it short an hour? Yeah. No, I just, I think we'll end up going. Like, we'll just stay there and go live until mine. Okay. That just hit me.

I don't know why that. Well, you said it. And I was like, okay. I don't. No, that makes sense. Makes perfect sense. If we do that, if we do that, also what we will have that Thursday is we'll have, what's the word also. So you have Chancellor of Roington.

And Buddha Davis. A Buddha, uh, Buddha, right. and Noah Polo Gates I have a buddy named Buddha Davis and I have to be careful not to do that with them. Yeah, we'll have those young folks out there as well. And then of course Rashon will be out. Jay will be out.

Rico will be out. We'll have a full afternoon evening there as well. I spent a little bit I have to share this because before we get back into the schedule. So Buddy Man has a show in Charlotte, and yesterday we were doing, they were doing a show.

And for some reason, we ended up on candy. Candy. I noticed. I didn't know that you were doing a show, but I noticed you were posting a lot of pictures of candy. Candy, right? That I'm surprised that we don't have other issues, health issues. Because apparently my generation ate a ton of wax back in the day. Wax was just all encompassing and it was able to hold things.

Okay, so it started with, so you know the little, the little mugs. The little bottles. The little plastic barrels of sugar water. Like, I don't want to call it juice. It's not sugar water. It wasn't juice. Flavored colored water. Flavored colored sugar water.

Yeah. Right? That, and I think, I don't even know how much, you remember what they cost. but if you didn't have money back in the day. What are they called? I'm going to look it up. Right. But, like, Great was MVP.

Like, if you could get, like, when I knew that for, like, a birthday party or cookout, we were going to have, there's going to be a case of those little mugs. And that's the only thing that they would allow the kids to drink. The grown-ups would get, like, and the other part of that was Shasta sodas? Shasta. Do you remember Chasta? Yeah, I've had Chasta. Right?

So if you didn't have money, there were certain things that you bought in both. Is that really what these are called? Oh, what's it say? Oh, you're talking about the plastic. No, that's wax. No, no, no, no. So there's different things. The nip-nip-knit-knip.

Nickel-nip. Nickel-nip wax bottles, which you would get like a hundred for like $5. Well, if you like scrolls. Well, if you like scroll up, there's like, it's like, it just says like wax candy bottles. And it's like the little bag. Right. Which that's what I remember getting. No, we would get the box.

We would get the little cart box. Oh, okay. And you can see the eight pack, you get eight for $1.50. But we would get eight for like 50 cents back in the day. Yeah, that makes sense. And basically it was just, it was wax. It was wax with sugar water squirted into it. I don't even know how.

And you would buy it. You would bite. So there were two ways to attack this thing. Mm-hmm. Right? You would bite into the end. The top? The top.

And then you would squirt this thing out. Or you would bite in the middle and then chew it all up and try to get it in. Yeah. So I just want to plant that seat because later in the show, I'm going to go, second segment, we're going to go hard into these things. Yeah. Right? I just want you to think back to all the candy that does not exist now.

You can get it like through, like, eBay and Amazon. that thought of the store. But you can't buy them. I think you could still buy these wax bottles in the stores. If they can't, we're going to have some this week. Because if we can't, we'll have to.

I don't want to. We'll go through it. We're going to have to go through. I know. Okay. So setting the table there, we were discussing the Husker schedule. And I want to go through because there are several different ways of this play out.

There are tendencies all over the schedule from top to bottom. And I don't want to lose the fact that Nebraska with a new roster, new coaching staff. Remember all the tendencies and things that you do. Everything's new. All the standards, the things that you do preparing for game one are all off the table. Because this year you're going to go to Dublin, Ireland,

for an August 27th game, a week zero game against a known rival who you don't always have success against. Up until, I mean, every once in a while you get a couple of loads, but usually Nebraska and Northwestern, they are close games. It's a bro. They are close.

So your offensive coordinator has a different, you've never worked with this offensive coordinator. Nope. In this space. Your receiver, your past game coordinator, new guy. Defensive line, new guy. Your running game. Special teams, new guy, running game, new guy.

And you're going to take off on the previous Monday. So that Monday, you're going to fly out. Now, all the things that you normally don't want to do, to start your season, you now have to do them. Like all the distractions that you normally take out of, right? It's all there. Right?

If this was just a trip to Northwestern. Yeah, if you're just going to Evanston. You would remove everything that will be a part of this particular season. Because what do you want? You want what you normally do. So all of the prep, all the install, right? The things that you're going to, would normally do in private, right? You now have to do in the big stage in front of folks who you would not normally give access to in the lead-up week to your opening day.

Nothing is normal. No normal. Zero normal. Now, zero normal for Northwestern, but that's a veteran. It's a veteran team with an extremely veteran coach. A rock solid veteran coach. Yes. So, and is it fair to say that Northwestern has zero pressure on it?

Oh, no, that's more than fair to say. They don't. Like Fitzgerald's not under pressure. No, Fitzgerald's never on the huts. He's not under pressure. So Fitzgerald, he doesn't have back-to-back bad seasons, which is great. Like, I guess that could be the pressure. But even then, if he has another.

bad season, it's not like they're going to fire him. Like he pretty much has a... Well, no, I mean, if they go over, that's in the conversation. Nick and Sip were having that conversation this morning. If he goes over, like, it's in the conversation. It's not going to happen this year. It'll have to be another bad year. I don't know that.

I don't know what they're... And also, they're not going to go over. I don't know what that is, though. I can't say that. I can't speak that for Northwestern. That's... I can't speak that for Northwestern because we don't know their standard for that. We don't know that.

Northwestern works on its own plane, right? Because of the media connections within the program and the way that the narrative is discussed about Northwestern, there's zero of the expectation that Nebraska has. But you would also think with the amount of success that he has had at a Northwestern that hasn't experienced a ton of success, that he would be granted. Yeah, he's not under pressure. He'd be granted something even with an offer, which that, with even how, bad Northwestern is or how bad people say Northwestern is,

there is no way Pat Fitzgerald goes through a season without getting a win. Yeah, I just don't know what the expectation are. He is a really good coach. So as they go through this thing, right, that the eyes and ears and voices attached to it, Northwestern media is not covering this the way Nebraska media is going to cover this. And they're certainly not going to talk about it. the way Nebraska media talks about Nebraska. It's not going to happen, right?

It's not going to happen. So imagine all of your installs. So camp starts, you've got all your install. Again, you get new personnel, new personnel on the field, and new personnel on the coaching staff. It's a lot of new. It's a lot of new in place.

Then what you want to evaluate is, for the three weeks prior to that. Remember the competition part of it because the competition still has to happen. That starts August 1. Started already. Well, no, you can't, until you're live, live, until you go to camp, you can't have competition.

They're working on getting body parts functional and getting understanding of system, right? You don't know scheme, verbiage. pacing, tempo. Like you don't know any of that stuff, right? Because people will fold under tempo. People will fold under learning the scheme. People will fold under learning the vocabulary.

We know that because that's what we've been told for four years. Yeah. Wouldn't learning the scheme in the vocabulary, wouldn't you be able to do that now? No. No. No, because you need live, you need live fire to do this. That's the practice tempo that I'm talking about. people think practice tempo is effort now practice tempo is getting you to to be able to

understand formation right what's being asked of me uh which group is on the field because again if they're going to put you out there uh with with with group a you've got one quarterback you put you out with group b it's a second quarterback group c it's a third quarterback right and then who who's defending you is a group a is group b is group c right right? or are their walk-ons facing you, right? Because that's a different rep, right? And you don't pay attention to the reps against the walk-ons. You pay attention against the reps against the A-Bs and Cs.

Because that's how you measure. Like Northwestern is not going to put any walk-ons out on the field. That's not what that's going to be. And you can't, you're not, those folks aren't traveling. Remember, this is a travel trip to Ireland. You're not taking 85 players. Taking a lot of, you're taking. Yeah.

Or you might be, but if you are, that's a lot of chaos to me. That's too. That's with the lack of control, the lack of knowledge of your environment and your surroundings, you wouldn't want to spread yourself too thin with too many players. Too many players, too many explanations, too many people to monitor. But also think of it this way. So when does this team determine who its special teams guys are during camp? You can't do that in the offseason.

Yeah. Right? And you got a new, you know, Billy Bush's new guy, right? So, yeah, they're familiar with him with what he wants to do. But with the players that he's going to use, these are new folks. You got all these new skill position guys. You have defensive backs that are battling, they're trying to figure out a way. And understand if you're not on special teams, you're not going to travel to Ireland.

I get you on the travel roster being able to do something on special teams. Right. The easiest way for you to get to another. Easiest way for you to get to Dublin. If you're not a starter, it's specialty. Right. So all of that's going to be just force fed into a compactor for the three weeks of camp. Learning the verbiage.

Learning the verbiage, right? Getting an understanding of what the coach wants. It's one thing to learn this based on what you watch in film study. But it's entirely different when you line up to somebody who walks up and puts you in press coverage when you were expecting zone. Well, coach, I'm. I'm being rerouted. I can't get into this route. Well, you've got to figure out a way to get into this route.

You better get into it. And if you can't get into it, then I've got to reset that group, put new personnel on the field to see if they can match up against the thing that we don't match up well against. And then does it translate to the next thing you're going to run? So Northwestern, for what it is, is a big deal. It's a big deal going to Dublin. Tell you a lot.

In my hope of hopes, they go to Dublin and they put up a 50 burger. They repeat what they did last year. Like that, that, that's kind of what I want. I want the chaos of this team doing so well that we have to re. We don't know what to expect. Like, we have to rethink our conversations about the team. Like I want a 50 burger against. Like you want, you want first half of Oklahoma, Casey Thompson.

Yeah, I want Casey. to send us all into just a chaotic frenzy of Kool-Aid being poured all over each other because we don't understand. You want half the fan base like, yes, he's a Heisman frontrunner and the other half. Like, well, calm down. It's only one game. Well, calm down. But I also, because of that, because what I want for it, what I want for it is the 50

burger. Then you come back against North Dakota, 50 burg. And then you have Georgia Southern. Georgia Southern, 50 Burke. What I want is... Not a high 45, not a high 40 burger? No. I want 50 burgers as a regular for those first three games because...

You want darn near 200 points in the first three games. I want it to be... I want it so that Casey's mad that he doesn't get to play four quarters and put up the numbers that he could put up. My stats would be better if they let me play in the third and the fourth quarter. Right. I want to have that conversation. I want Casey to have that conversation, right?

And I just want like, you know what we need. We need an intern who we will give Kool-Aid baths to on Monday morning. Right? That we just pour the Kool-Aid right over top of or a fan. It could be a listener. It could be a listener. If you get me large fries from a certain establishment, I'll do it. Okay.

Done deal. Done deal. Bet. It's a bet. as long as they don't have Kool-Aid on them. Right. Can't have them there at the same time.

Right. You want that. I want 180 points. Goodness gracious. In those three games, I want the defense to have, to score in those games. I want to see Casey and Chubba

and Logan's mothers in all three games. I want to see. Maybe even a sprinkling of Heinrich Harvey. No, I don't. I can't. that much. I can't dream that. That's too hot. That's too much. That's too much. That's too much. That's too much chaos. How dare I? Oh, no, no. Then I would need a K.E. And I wouldn't, like, just put it straight.

straight into the blood, right? Because that means that we're going to see all six runners, right? Which means in that space, you're going to have a breakaway runner, right? You're going to have a yant becomes yant man that we really think he's going to be. Grant looks like the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, right? told. Right. Like we see all of that. Trey Palmer, you know,

Washington knows. We just, it's. Vermeer and Gabe Urban get on the field. Manning catches two deep bombs or he catches one on a quick post and he just destroys a safety and runs. Can I request an Alante Brown ankle breaker? Yeah.

Like you need. On the reverse. The reverse that we normally give to bets. Please. Thank you. We give to Brown. Please and thank you. That's all I need.

So, so that we walk into week four. September 7th with Big Noon kickoff, right? Fox is here. Everybody's here. Your eyes are turned firmly and directly towards two undefeated teams in Oklahoma, Nebraska, who have put up just ungodly amounts of points. Just disgusting them.

300 points from, like, combine is what we want, right? Easily. Right. Just give me, like, just pour it. All of it. Like, just pour all of it. Please and thank you. Right?

So that we get that week four of Nebraska fans just insane. Like Nebraska fans are annoying right now. So if they're 3 and O heading into Oklahoma, won all of it. I might have to delete my Twitter. I would never delete my Twitter. All of that. Right?

All of it. But that's what I want, right? It's fair. It's what I want. I don't think you're alone. Right. Did you get to that? and then it plays out because then we get to have a real come to meeting

because there'll be 4-0 with a bye week two weeks to just again what do we do for that week of all just we do whatever that week and then it's like oh by the way there's no football game cool-aid cool-lade cool we have a cool-lade party at four and out like you just got Nebraska fans watching other football games just like ah well you get you're not Nebraska if there four and oh after after oklahoma we open the parking lot we tailgate we will we will we should get a dunk tank right and fill it with a cool eight a coolate dunk tank yeah yeah we just have a party yeah here in the parking just like i think it's just there another grill out yeah but with a dunk tank and then everything carnival games shout out jeremy somehow we have a ferris wheel i

don't know what's going on like i mean just craziness elephant rides because that that That would lead us to all the other wonderful chaotic possibilities. Because then immediately you would go into the panic, the fear. Uh-oh. Right? What's going to go wrong? Because that's inevitable. We can't have good for too long.

That's inevitable. But I want it. I want that. I want full cool. Because there's always that thing in the back of your head like, nothing could go wrong. Or this could, it's either this is our reality or you're not winning a single game the rest of the season. I want the smoke.

Those are the only two things. That's it. There's no in between. You're either going undefeated now or you're going defeated the rest of the season. Congratulations, you won four games. That's it. Like, it's good. This is, chef's kiss.

If they start 4-0, I don't know what I'm going to do. I just, just, just, come on. I'm going to be sitting here like, well, according to my record, they're only going to win one more. And remember, Fat Phil has a question. And remember, well, Fat Phil, we can't answer that question. You know why? Because he hasn't put his projection. Yeah, Fat Phil.

He hasn't told us what his record is going to be. What is Nebraska going to finish the season at? Rub it up. CJ, like, I cannot, I cannot give you guys credit without. getting your season projections put into your into your profile yeah we need it for your text profile give us your give us your guesses and what the team's record's going to be this season we will keep it all season long so that when you're identified it we can say hey you said you said this we're going to do this yep so if you have not given that add a boy fat

Phil. Ada boy. Six and six. Outa boy. Rubber duck hasn't done it. Rubber duck has his. It's just the name's too long. You have to click on it and it's there. It's on there. Okay. Cool. What about CJ? I have to check. What up, Dusty. Yeah, man. There's plenty. There's plenty to talk about. Right. 50 burgers. Yep. I, I absolutely agree with you, Dusty. I can see them putting up 350 burgers and still finishing six and six. C.J. just not have his record. Yeah. That would.

You know what? That's Maryland last year. Just poor, just poor Coleslaw. That's Maryland last year. Fan. All the 50 burgers, all the fun offense. And then they went up against Iowa and Talia through like five picks in two minutes. And no matter what, no matter what you think, I wouldn't be surprised no matter how they finished.

No. Because we deserve it. Welcome to the show. We deserve chaos. More one-on-one when we come back. You're listening to Old School with DP and J. Download the mobile app and listen wherever you are on 93-7 the ticket and the ticketfm.com.
