what's up everybody and welcome back to the anything better podcast for nfl week number three
uh everybody's hurt guys and uh the the season is flipped upside down uh i'm your host paul verzi over
here you got bill burrow over there we have the injury report as always with jake the snake
and the greek freak andrew themless in beverly hills um dude joe burrow i just got to talk about this
every year I pick a team to really make
noise. I'm saying Joe Burrow
and the Bengals are going to go
toe to toe with the Ravens and the Bills
and poor Joe Burrow is out. Bill, not for
a week or two. Months.
What happened?
Jake,
Jake, what happened to him?
Isn't the story? Isn't this
story? I know there's a lot of
big NFL stories, but how about I've done
almost the impossible?
I haven't had a win in two weeks. I'm
07 and 1.
So I just hope all of you guys,
if you realized I didn't know what I was talking about early this season.
Based on last season and this season before,
you have made a lot of money betting against me.
Bill, I'm two and six.
The show is not off to a start this year.
What could you say?
Yeah, but you always do that.
And then October comes.
You're Mr. October on this.
And then you start spanking that bookie ass in November.
You do this.
Paul, you have a flare for the dramatic.
I've always been Billy Winsome Lusome.
Yeah, you're steady Eddie.
I'm the two-and-two kid.
You know, maybe what I said happens.
Maybe it doesn't.
Nothing.
No.
I'm not right in the playoffs, but the regular season, I do.
All right, Jake, Jake, the snake is back.
Jake, what happened to Joe Burrow and what is the time frame on this guy?
Yeah, unfortunately, he basically fractured his toe in that bangle game.
So they call it Turf Toe, but like when you actually look it up, it's really just a lot more serious than the name.
So he's got out, they said three months.
So, I mean, that's pretty much the entire season.
And our friends is over bedding.
Wait, Turf Toe was a broken toe.
All of these years, I thought there was something about playing on AstroTurf that gave you some sort of toe planter fischitis that it was some special thing.
They break their toe.
Dude, it basically.
But there's no turf anymore.
Maybe that's what it is.
It basically shut down.
It shut down Dion Sanders last.
few years of his career. Deon Sanders, like, they kept saying turf toe and I never knew what it meant.
I was like, can't they just fix that? But it, like, it's, I guess it's bad.
Is it like tennis elbow, but with your toe? It's like the ligament. And now he lost his toe.
He doesn't have that toe. He got his toes off. His toes are off. Yeah.
Dion does not have three toes on that foot. Time out. I want to hear from the fucking rugby people now over in
England.
I'm so sick of them saying like these
bro, a bunch of
fucking pussies. It's just like, dude,
when I guys are done, I've seen
a guy yet, his foot removed,
toes cut off,
Ronnie Lott, his finger cut off.
People commit suicide.
I don't, does that happen after you
play rugby?
Oh, Bill, you know what we got to talk about,
I hope not. I'm glad that we watch
this. Bill and I, at the same
time we're watching, we got to talk about
the Canello, but,
Bud Crawford fight.
First of all, dude,
watching two Hall of Famers go at it
and everybody's saying Canello's going to win,
including Max Kellerman,
who called the fight,
everybody's saying Canello's a heavy favorite.
Dude, Terrence Crawford's game plan
to let him walk him in the corner
and then run out and combo
and the defense, dude,
that was as good of a fight.
Bill, how great was that?
Yeah, he was too good of a boxer.
What amaze me is that Canello
was cutting off the ring like he always
does and he would get in that this he was just too fast i was thinking you a monday morning quarterback
because i guess can i mean i don't know shit about boxing but i guess canello never jabs he's more
of a counter guy yeah like that might have been you know if they fight again if he developed a jab
um yeah pose to just stand because that guy was so quick a couple times he got him with his
classic left hook to the body but he kind of figured that out but in the sixth round when he just
smiled after like, I got this guy. It was like, and then he just started standing there
kind of showboating a little, not showboating. He wasn't like disrespectful, but like, um, I also
love that Canello like, we'll fight a guy, you know, that that is, has that much left in the
tank that is 42 and O or whatever he was. Yeah. You know, that's the thing that kind of hurt
boxing for a long time. It was just like guys ducking other guys and ducking him and ducking them
and ducking them and ducking them, and then building up these wins, fighting bums.
I love it, though, but just as far as, like, the strategy of it, I can't tell you how many times I've
seen that, though. I kind of feel like a boxer usually wins that matchup. If they have a chin,
if they can sustain it, but I mean, I understand why people pick Canello just because he kept,
like, you know, Crawford kept moving up and wait. So usually what happens is they're just not,
strong enough with that extra 20 pounds or something that they had behind the punch to take,
I guess. I don't know. Yeah, that's what they said. Like, Terrence Crawford went up two weight
classes and they were like, dude, it's going to exhaust him. But he kind of was ready for it
and I thought it was great for it. Dude, that's the first time I watch a boxing match in years
where I go, oh, boxing is the best. Like, I love boxing again because, you know, UFC usually
has them all the time. But good for that guy, man.
What do you do? Joe Biden starts showing up to every major boxing thing.
everybody starts chanting USA.
Just so they can balance it out.
And how weird is it?
If fighting becomes like CNN and Fox News.
And dude, Bruce Buffer and his brother.
What's the other one's name?
Oh, Michael Buffer.
Michael Buffer and Bruce Buffer both having those jobs and those different organizations
is really wild.
And then they start a point, counterpoint political talk show because Paul, you can't get
away from it as much as you try.
try watching sports try watching a talk show try going for a walk yeah it's just fucking this
just in we're all doomed it's like can i just get away from it i know if you're not going to fix
it can i can i can i just you know can i walk out of the room for a second that's that's what sports
are for that's what sports it was that's that's what NFL now there's politics and women in them
And it's, there's nowhere to go, Paul.
It's water world.
It's water world.
It's water world.
All right.
Bill Burr is going to get off the Schneide.
Jake, give us the report.
Who is out this week other than Joe Burrow?
Dude, I should be suspended indefinitely.
How come no bookies that're coming for me?
Who you got, Jake?
The bookies love me.
What am I talking about?
yeah so the viking's quarterback j jay mccarthy is going to be out for a few weeks as well with the high ankle sprain
and then um why are you wearing a red shirt are you trying to say something politically
i think it matches my hair a little bit now why do you think joe burrow got a uh uh turf toe do you think
it was the liberals or the conservators who put down that turf yeah i want to know all right
We need answers.
Yeah, so then Justin Fields for the Jets is also out for the concussion.
So those are the quarterbacks that are kind of out.
Jane and Daniels?
Yeah, we're not sure about Jane Daniels,
but I think the books feel as if he's not going to play
because that number is gone from,
they open in seven and a half, and now it's three and a half.
So I think they feel like he's out.
But I think they think Brock Purdy is going to play
because the Niners are pretty decent-sized favorites.
So there's a chance Brock Purdy comes back,
but we're just not sure yet.
Oh, dude.
So we got quarterback.
No Burrow, no Jaden Daniels, no J.J. McCarthy, no Justin Fields.
All right.
This is backup quarterback Sunday here.
Paul, I'm going for it, man.
Oh, you're going for it?
No, I just feel like the fans are behind me in that they're betting opposite.
So I think I just might do this.
I might do this for them.
I might go on.
Oh, by the way.
I like how I'm acting like I'm trying to do this.
I'm trying to pick winners.
No, by the way, Bill, first time in anything better history, back-to-back Monday night specials hit.
First time in history, back-to-back goose eggs.
I did have the tie.
You had a half.
You had a half.
But you go first.
Paul, Paul, you got a good heart.
You got a good part, not rubbing my fucking nose in it.
Oh, Paul.
I mean, I feel like I'm at the DMV right now trying to look at the eye chart.
so I don't have to wear glasses to drive a car.
That's where I, that's the level of confidence.
I fucking picked against my Patriots and they come out and play a hell of a game.
I put that Stevenson kid, that running back we got?
Yeah.
Dude, he was running over people.
And at one point, dude, he's running in the flat, full speed.
And Drake made through one with not a lot of air under it.
I'm telling you, like 15, 20% of the receivers in the NFL might have dropped it.
And he caught it on the run as a running back.
What do you mean of Roger Craig?
Is Roger Craig not in the NFL Hall of Fame?
I don't think he is.
I don't think, oh, Jesus Christ.
Jesus Christ.
First, you got to listen to me, pick games, and Roger Craig's not involved.
Paul, what I'm doing right now is filibustering.
What do you think about your new Patriots?
I don't have any answers.
What do you think about Rabel?
So far.
So exactly, it's two games in.
It's like I just saw a comedian.
He's opening for me.
He's done two jokes.
Okay, that makes sense.
This is what I think so far.
All right, you know, we're one in one.
Okay, yeah, that's fair.
I would say go 500, but mathematically, that's impossible now because there's 17 games.
But if we win eight, seven or eight, I'm not even saying nine, Paul.
Not even say in nine.
I would be happy that it's turnaround.
We have targets now.
Drake may can extend plays.
He can run, which we haven't seen since I think Steve Grogan at the quarterback position.
we have had some of the slowest
Tom Brady
Drew Bledso
Tony Eason
no wheels
no one's had wheels
since Jimmy Carter was in the office
all right
I'm just going to pick a team
just so I can shut up
and give everybody a goddamn break
um
oh Paul
why am I going to do this
you know why because it's funny
I'm going to bet the fucking Thursday night game
and I'm going to lay
11 and a half points
and I'm just going to say that the
Bill's and the Dolphins are who they're showing we are.
Mike McDaniel, Daniel, the cocaine cowboy, man.
We shouldn't be saying that, you know.
No, it's a joke.
It's a joke.
He looks like he could get.
If you need it, he could get it.
He knows a guy.
Hey, we kind of like the party, be like, all right, man, hang on.
He'd be real cool about it, too.
He would be smart enough, too, not to get it himself.
I'll text you later.
Yeah, I'll talk to you later.
Let me check the analytics.
if I can get you that eight ball.
All right, I'm going to take the bills.
Give me an excuse to watch a goddamn game tonight.
There you go.
Oh, by the way, Roger Craig is a candidate in the seniors category of the Hall of Fame.
It's the most ridiculous thing.
He literally showed people the future.
I remember he ran out of his socks.
Remember that?
Because his socks would fall down and they say he ran out of his socks.
I remember that in a playoff game.
His socks would always fall down to his ankles.
And they go, he's so good.
he runs out of his socks, Roger Crick.
Running backs could not catch passes other than like Walter Payton.
Like they just had hands of stone.
It was like once you became a running back, I don't think anybody threw you a pet,
maybe a screen pass.
Yeah.
This guy was running patterns in the 80s doing what all of these kids are doing now.
All right.
I think you should be it.
I think it's an abomination.
An abomination is an abomination.
All right.
I'm taking the bills ball.
Laying 11 and a half.
Laying 11 and a half.
I'm starting down big, just like my record.
at this season.
I see that these quarterbacks being out.
All right.
Well, that's why I didn't listen, Paul.
I'm just going with my gut.
You know what I'm going to do?
I'm going to take, because they look good, they're at home.
Jim Harbaugh's got them 2 and 0.
Justin Herbert looked good.
I know it's a division rivalry, but I like the three points.
I am going to take the Los Angeles Chargers at home to beat the
Broncos by three.
Oh, Paul, you're going back to your old girlfriend.
I can't leave it.
You ran into her at the mall.
She's looking good.
She was nice.
Why did we even break up?
What happened again?
She was nice to me.
I just, I saw her at a kiosk.
We were both getting a new cell phone case.
I was just going to say that.
All right.
I'm an idiot, Paul.
And I'm going to take the 49ers.
Ooh.
Two and a half.
Laying two and a half.
Trying to stop that.
that water bug on and around there.
They're at home.
They're at home, you know.
They're out there in Levi Stadium, which used to be a roller coaster.
They stuck a fucking stadium in the middle of it.
All right.
Am I going to do this?
I am going to do this.
I'm going to the game.
I'm going to be there Sunday night with my son.
I'm going to Sunday night football with my son.
New York Giants getting six and a half against the chief's team that has not shown.
own much. It's a must win, Paul. It's a must win for both. I like the Giants defense. Russell Wilson, almost 500 passing yards last week. Malik neighbors. Our defense is good. Not saying, just for the record, I'm going to do a little homage to Jimmy the Greek here, rest of soul. Not saying, because Jimmy the Greek was saying, I'm not saying it's going to be a win, but I like the three. I'm saying I like the six and a half points in this game. Do I think the Giants win it out right, money?
line. I don't love that. I like the six and a half points. God forbid we lose. I could see it being
a heartbreaker by three. But give that Giants defense to points. I'm taking my New York Giants with me
and my son in the building. Is your coach's last name, Dabble? Dable. Dable. I thought
I was like, you know, I dabble a little in coaching. Dable. Brian Dable. All right. Yeah. And what is
it? Kyle Shanahan. All right. Um, you know, let's look at the other side of the ledger here.
Paul.
I want to pick two favorites and I'm going to pick two underdogs.
I kind of like the Chiefs minus six and a half, but what I don't like doing is rooting
for the Chiefs.
I did that once this year and it just hurt my stomach doing it, watching them doing
their little dink and dunk down the field.
I just, that brand of football, you know, I'm not into it.
All right.
So I'm going to take.
Oh, no, Bill, don't do it.
Am I going to take sneaky feet, the Raiders, to go into Washington after the commanders lost to the Vikings last?
No, who did they lose to the Vikings played the Falcons?
Who do the commanders lose?
Oh, the Packers.
Commanders had a nice fucking, they're going to have a nice 10-day rest.
I don't know.
I just, I wasn't impressed with their quarterback.
LSU kid.
yeah jade and daniels and he's actually banged up
you know what i'm going to take sneaky pete and the raiders to go in there
i think he's going to maybe swing by the white house and uh say what's going on
say to love to the uh to our king i like i like the half point there bill i think the half
point they like the half point i like the half point
he goes by the pentagon they uh they let him fly a fucking f-16 and then he uh
goes over the jefferson memorial he takes in the fucking blossoms
Listen, Sneaky Pete will find a way to get a flight.
Sneaky Pete staying at the Watergate Hotel.
Sneaky Pete knows a guy for sure.
Doesn't storm the Capitol, Paul.
Smiles.
He shakes hands.
They let him in.
He shakes hands.
They let him in.
He runs the stairs, Paul.
I love Pete Carroll back.
He's my favorite coach to tease.
Dude, I'm going to take, from my next game, they just look good, they find ways to win.
The Jets are hapless and the Jets are without Justin Fields.
I'm going to take Baker, Mayfield, and the Tampa Bay Bucks to not just beat the Jets.
That's a great pick.
To stomp the Jets.
All right.
I heard a little bit of your heart now.
The two things I don't understand about New York sports is Yankees hating the Mets.
Different.
I just, I just, like, the fact that you even dignify them with hating them.
And then the Giants fan hates the Jets.
They haven't won since we walked on the moon, Paul, allegedly.
Soundstage or not, Paul.
It was on TV.
We're going to go with what happened.
It was on TV.
That's, yeah.
You know what, Paul, I'm going to choose to believe in something.
What's that?
That we went to the moon.
oh shit dude i actually have to take this can we pause this one second oh let's say something i'll
talk about something real quick that is real that has you never hear this on a on a sports podcast
i went to a broadway play hi i went to go see uh bobby connovali james cordon and uh neil patrick
harrison art amazing great it was fucking amazing it was it was opening night um i finally
got to see bobby bobby broadway bobby kind of barley um um
Um,
absolutely,
dude,
they fucking,
dude,
they killed.
Like,
I literally saw it,
you know,
now that I've done one call,
you know,
I was sitting there going like,
I would love to come back
and see this in about six weeks.
Wow.
You know,
because this is like,
if this is the performance
when this shit is still new to them,
dude,
court,
he does like a five minute rant.
Like,
I don't even know how you could memorize all those words.
And in the end,
his character sits down on the couch.
Dude,
it got an applause break.
It died.
down and then there was another applause break oh dude that's sick it was like a minute long oh
it's like it was like louder than the applause that you get at the end of this football season
every year when you beat the book fall hey not this year not yet yeah no no intermission
and it's about 85 90 minutes so if you're a guy exactly if you want to take your wife to
something and get credit for going to broadway but you don't have to watch like five
bossy and all of this shit.
Perfect.
It's the one.
I love it.
I actually told her about it because you recommended it, and I think we're going to try to go.
Hey.
Paul, you know.
Who am I?
Yeah, you walk it through the kitchen.
They fucking find a table for you.
Bobby.
Bob, you remember?
You could go from rags to riches.
During the play, he goes like this to my table?
Yeah.
They break character.
They break character.
You just hear Stacey go, there was nothing like it.
Remember?
Yeah.
How do you know all these people?
I'm in construction.
It just shows how dumb the wives were, right?
I'm a construction.
They're not dumb.
She goes, it doesn't feel like you're in construction.
No, dude, first of all, they're not dumb.
They're practicing for where the feds show up, and they can play dumb.
Yeah.
Yeah, their whole thing is,
I don't want to know.
I don't want to know.
Don't tell me.
What did he say to her?
Or don't give me the babe in the woods.
What did he say?
Hey, Karen, don't give me the babe in the woods speech.
That's one of my, that's one of the most underrated.
Oh, that's great.
Like, I have to go to, I don't know.
Like, acting like she had no idea.
Yeah.
Your husband stays out all night and he comes home with like a gun belt of cash.
Not without your keys, you're not.
All right. I think you go, Bill.
Oh, dude, I need to be replaced on this.
I'm on the hot seat.
All right, I'm going to take the Colts.
Oh, minus three and a half playing the Titans going in there and, you know, old, old Daniel Jones.
Billy taking points this week. I like it.
No, no, no, no. I took two favorite taking points, Paul.
I'm laying 11 a half with the bills tonight.
Oh, you need a ball.
I always bet the Thursday game this year because I like to get the first slap in the face out of the way.
You know, it gives me a couple days to shake it off.
So when the next three come on Sunday, I'm just struggling, dude.
We're both struggling.
Paul, it's two weeks in.
I already got three standing eight counts.
I'm doing this.
The ref's looking at you?
The ref's looking at you.
Max Kellerman.
Max Kellerman's gone, I would stop it right now.
What do I have?
One more pick, Andrew?
Yeah.
Yeah, okay.
All right.
So, with my fourth and final pick.
Oh, my God.
Dude, that Lions Ravens game is so scary.
I can't touch it.
I'm not touching it.
Don't worry.
I'm not touching it.
touching i'm not touching i'm not touching so what about the steelers i saw that one too uh i just i just
i just i don't know aaron rogers think he's got a little more in the tell one and a half
well as always paul hats off to the bookies just just picking that perfect number every goddamn
week it's almost like they have a sea of computers going up against i'm struggling with this last
pick because it's between two games.
Well, Paul, if you're struggling, don't be afraid to reach out for help.
In fact, anybody out there.
If you're struggling, call me and whatever I say, do the exact opposite.
The Browns and Packers, I don't like.
I'll tell you what.
Should I take part of the original NFL?
How could you say such a thing?
Actually, no, they're not.
The Packers are.
The NFL should I take the Rams getting three and a half against the Eagles?
Or should I take the Jaguars at home?
You know, Paul, that's what makes America great.
I'm going to take.
Because you have choices like this.
Jake, are the Rams hurt?
Nobody on the Rams is hurt, right?
No, Rams are good to go.
That should be one of the better games of the week.
I thought Matthew Stafford was going through a breakup.
Is that not true?
Not true, not true, as far as I know.
I'm going to take the Rams getting three and a half in Philadelphia.
Philadelphia has been okay, but they haven't wowed me.
They haven't.
They haven't.
without me.
Paul, this is the second time
you went into your fields.
No, I really like...
You want the Jets to be done.
Oh, they are.
You want the Chiefs to be done.
Yeah.
And you want the Eagles to be done.
Oh, dude.
Think about what you're doing here.
Don't psychologically do it.
Oh, you bet with this.
Don't do this to be through.
That's what I do, Paul.
I like the, what's his name, the coach?
He's all jacked up.
Sean McVeigh.
He's got the haircut.
Sean McVeigh, the Rams.
He's all jacked up.
He works out with the team.
Stafford's looking good.
He's got sneaky Pete's old workout stuff from USC.
Dude, sneaky Pete is almost 80.
And I guarantee you he can run up a flight of stairs faster than me.
He doesn't even yell at the refs.
He chooses gum and asks questions.
and nods. There's something about
sneaky Pete, dude. As much
as we call him sneaky Pete, Bill, how much would
we love having a beer with that guy?
Fuck that. How much would I love
having his disposition?
I know.
Oh my God.
If he's a dog breed, that's what you
want around your kids.
He's a golden retrieval with a
pit bull heart.
Come Sunday.
Don't let
the Ned Flanders look fool you.
That guy is a killer.
Oh, dude, he's...
Speaking of which, dude,
I want to get another dog.
I want to get a red-nosed pit bull.
I fucking love those dogs.
Are you guys looking for a family dog right now?
You've got to do it, dude.
Kids are asking, right?
Yeah, I want to go to a breeder, too,
just so I can get people yelling at me.
I like, I don't know...
Why don't you go down to a shelter?
I already did that.
Try to eat my baby.
You did do that.
I did do that.
The fucking thing was nuts.
I loved her, though.
Yeah.
Dude,
my relationship with my first dog
was like De Niro and Sharon Stone
and Casino.
Yeah.
You did more for that dog
than people do for people.
I can't even get into
the situation
I'm still in with that dog.
Dude,
you told me some things you did for that dog
and I was just like,
wow, I'm a piece of shit.
I would never do.
That's it, Paul.
Once you get in here, it's over.
I love that.
I still, every once in a while, yell that dog's name.
I go down the street.
Makes me so good.
Oh, dude.
Hey, yo!
I just yells as I going on the other thing.
I fucking love that dog.
Oh, dude.
Yeah, you got to, are your kids asking?
My kids want another one.
When I think of going to heaven, like, that's what I'm thinking of seeing as my dog.
They say you do.
That'd be awesome.
That'd be awesome.
Just getting up there.
Hey, well, can we just have that?
Can that just have that?
happen?
That'd be funny if God's letting you in heaven be like, yeah, I don't, I'm not, I don't need all
that.
Just, I had a dog from 2008, 2007, 2017, if I could just hang out with that dog and smoke a cigar
and not get heaven cancer, can I, can I, can I, that's all I need.
I won't, we got a buffet.
I don't need it. I don't need it. I don't. I'm good.
I won't mention his name. I won't mention his name, but I have a friend in comedy. You know him.
And we were on the road. He was on the road for a long time. He was on the road for a long time.
And I go, dude, do you miss your family? He just goes, I miss my dog.
And here's the thing. It was wholehearted, and he meant every word of it. Like, he meant it.
And it was true.
It was true.
He goes, I miss my dog.
And I was just like, don't you have a...
Anyways.
Well, part of being the man of the house is coming home and feeling like a non-entity.
Just walking up the stairs.
Do I matter?
I think I matter.
I mean...
Dude, dogs are special, though, aren't they?
they know they're the best my wife wasn't feeling good dude and lloyd was just new next to her chin on
her knee just like dogs dogs get it they get it they don't they just get loyal yep and cats are the
real world that's what's out there that's why you have a dog because most people identify as cats
but they say that they're a dog and they're not oh you're my dog no no no you're not a dog dude
Don't, yeah.
Unwavering loyalty and love.
Unwavering love.
Simple.
Borderline's stupid.
Always in a good mood.
Cats, too fucking smart for their own good.
Think too much.
Always a problem.
Never happy.
No trust.
No trust.
They're always on their toes looking.
They want affection.
When they want affection, they control it, you know?
Not mutual.
What are we talking about?
Right?
We still talking dogs and cats?
I can forget.
I think we're talking about our wives, okay?
It's on their terms.
All right.
You really just get to the point of way.
I would just love to just be fucking left alone.
Can I just like, that's what the back porch is for.
When they put a back porch,
I'm, we've got to have some place for the guys.
No, dude, can I be honest?
I'm going to get, I'm going to get real on anything better.
I'm not having the greatest week, okay?
Going through some things, life shit.
And the other day I was down
And dude my dog was just looking at me like dude
I got you
Like he just looked at me like I got I'm here
And I was like
They know
They know
They give a fuck
He gives a fuck
He checks in with you Paul
His eyes he knows
She don't do it
She don't do it
She don't do it
God bless him Paul
It's not their fault
They just they're just not wired
wired that way
it's just not how it works
all right
it's getting bleak
yeah it's getting sick
but two and oh the Monday night special
let's turn the bus around
two and oh Monday night special
we have all four of our picks right guys
all right guys
before I'm happy

Our Monday night special hit, we had Justin Herbert and two touchdown passes.
He did exactly that.
We are two for two bill.
Are we going to do the unimaginable and go three-peat to start?
We already did back to back.
We've never done that.
So we're playing with House money here.
And it's a big game.
It's one game, right?
No, it's one game and it's a doozy.
It's the lions coming off, beating up the Bears bad,
and it's the Ravens coming off a big win, and it's in Baltimore.
Yeah, dude.
I mean, it's a, I, I, uh, oh, look here.
Oh, Jake, you know what?
You know, you know, you know, it's important when Jake just shows up.
And Jake is a lot.
Exactly.
What are you?
What do we need to know?
I mean, should be a good game.
I mean, do you guys like a side in this one?
Like, do you think the Ravens may be money line or, like, maybe like the Lions to cover?
I like the Ravens Money Line.
I like Lamar Jackson.
I don't think anybody can stop that guy.
I agree.
Yeah, I was thinking definitely get Lamar Jackson involved in some way.
And I like John Harbaugh.
Again Dan Campbell, I think I got to give the nod with experience to,
John Harbaugh, and they're also at home.
So if we're doing the money line, I like Lamar Jackson to do some dazzling shit.
Is there a way to get Lamar to get an anytime touchdown,
or maybe you can do like rushing or passing?
I feel like there's a way to get that, something like that down.
By the way, can I say something before we do this bet?
I've seen these sports shows where they have the guys on the little boxes the way us three are.
I don't know many with better looking than these three.
I mean, we look good, dude.
I'm not going to lie to you.
We look good, you know?
Anyway.
I don't know about this.
I like this Brady Bunch set up, though, that we have.
I guess I'm Peter.
Start looking up, pointing.
I like Lamar Jackson scoring a touchdown.
Yeah, can we do that, Andrew?
Can we do a pass or a run and Ravens' Money Line?
Yeah.
Yeah, should be able to build it.
Do you want to throw in a third leg at Amman Ross St. Brown of the Lions?
get over receiving yards something like that he's i love that he's really good um maybe not a touchdown
but um i like i like him to have a big day i would build it out but because i'm in california i can't
properly log in so god we can write it down right do you want to do you want to say i'm on st brown
to catch one or do you want to do jared goff to throw one i don't trust golf personally
okay um but i mean he could hey jake you've you've helped guide us to
to two and all with the money.
We go with you.
It's tough with golf because he was so good last week
and he was so bad week one.
And so you don't know which one you're going to get.
And they like to run it in the red zone.
I kind of agree with Bill here.
I think the fucking snake here.
I like the Ravens money line
and I like Lamar Jackson to do whatever.
Run, throw.
Exactly.
The guy is fucking unstoppable.
And then what Jake the Snake does,
you know what, not only does Jake Watch Gaines,
he remembers them.
That's the problem I have.
Yeah.
For sure.
Oh, my God, dude, you know what's fucking hilarious?
I got a drinking game for you.
Oh, no, I can't shit on fuck it.
I always get in trouble when I do this shit.
Dude, I'm just going to say this.
I saw a fucking movie.
It was on the flight back.
I think it's called exposition is when characters,
rather than speaking like their characters,
they just say what's going to happen.
The whole fucking movie, dude,
it should be a drinking game.
Anytime anybody explains what's going to happen,
And not only do you have to, like, drink, you have to drink the entire time they're explaining.
This dude said to, this one character says something.
And then the other character goes, let me get this straight.
You're saying the only chance we have is if we all meet at the exact same time,
at the exact same place at the bottom of the Baltic Sea and one of those contractions over there.
And the guy's like, yes.
they did everything but explain taking his shit
you're telling me
if I go in that little room
and sit on that chair with a hole in it
I've got an interesting one for you guys
so I was watching this Charlie Sheen doc
and we don't need to get into this personal life
but I saw that
what do you think about him
as the karate kid
how crazy would that have been
I was kind of curious to see what you guys
had thought about like that potential or maybe the butterfly effect from that i don't know i think he was
he was he always had like a badass vibe to him and i think what ralph matrio brought to the role was
a vulnerability like i would believe you know ralph's getting like you know charlie sheen
always looked like i mean sorry yeah he always looked like you grow a beard by the seventh grade
he looked like you he looked like a cold two cobra kai i bet that's what it came down to
Like Ralph Machio, you believe, like, this kid would have a tough time if he was new kid in the neighborhood.
The one thing that I loved about the doc was that small part he played in Ferris Bueller's Day Off was so impactful that people watched him.
And they were just like, even though he's not even close to a star in this, like, that's the fucking guy.
I thought that that was really cool.
It was the coolest guy in the movie.
Yeah.
Yeah.
What are you in here for?
Drugs?
No.
What do you went here for?
He goes, drugs.
I can't even do it.
The way he did that the timing was perfect
and the way he was just leaning, looking at her.
How amazing was it that, like, his drug dealer,
it was like the first time ever they said that a guy
weaned off of drugs by the drug dealer
where the drug dealer was like, all right,
I'm not going to lose this guy.
So I'm going to give him the same dose,
but we're just going to keep making it less potent
until he gets tired of it.
And it was just like, I know it's enabling,
but it was kind of crazy and brilliant.
A drug dealer with a heart.
What about the hidden message in Ferris
Bueller's day off.
What's that?
His sister's problem was she wasn't getting any dick.
That's why she was so fucking focused on Ferris and what the fuck he was doing.
And then she finally meets a guy that's going to bang her right.
I mean, that was kind of what they were doing.
Yeah.
She got all fucking giddy.
Second, she met Charlie Sheen's character, she didn't give a fuck what Ferris was doing.
Am I wrong?
No, that's true.
That's actually a good point.
Yeah.
They were all written by guys back then, Paul.
So I'm not saying that that's the truth.
I'm just saying that that kind of seemed like the message.
And another cool thing about the doc, people got to see the doc.
Another cool thing that I loved about the doc was he loved sports.
He was like an athlete.
He loved sports.
But how about Nicholas Cage being like, I'm outside.
I'll meet you at the party.
Like Nicholas Cage was his like, like Nicholas Cage.
You know what they left out one time?
Guy.
One time he went to an Angels game and bought a whole section
of seats right out in left field
so he could catch a home run he wouldn't have any
competition and nobody hit one
and he was just sitting out there
super famous by himself
with like 80 fucking seats around him all
bought up and he just sat in his glove
and by the same thing he's like dude
what the fuck
oh dude
that's awesome
you know it's even better than that
is that the tickets were available
you know what they left out of the dock
which I would have loved them to talk about.
Major League was such a great sports movie where he played Ricky Vaughn.
I would love to hear like how many real pitches he threw
and like if he was accurate or like something on the set
of like a baseball field would have been cool.
Yeah, it was a, yeah, it's also like, I don't know, I always don't know.
I love that guy, man.
I was just seeing him after.
Now he's sort of clean, right?
Is he clean?
Oh, he's been clean for eight years.
Okay, great.
yeah he said he said what did it was he said he used to start drinking in the morning with his coffee
and he said like it was awesome because he would like love his coffee and booze so he would start
his day with it and then he had to take his daughter to something he told it on a talk show too
he had to tell he'd take his daughter somewhere and he realized he couldn't drive her to school because
he wasn't sober so he had to have that dude uh tony todd or you know his best friend
and he said he like sees his daughter's face in the mirror kind of knowing like why isn't my dad
driving like he's like she never said anything but he's like why she's like he's like
my daughter's got to be thinking why isn't dad driving right now like what's going on
and he said it just stuck with him and he's like I'm done with this shit how about Denise
hooker at Denise hooker oh shit I mean Denise Richards
he made the sandwiches for the hooker that's what I was
nothing will that is a
Andrew bookmarked that
that is one of the funniest moments
in the podcast history
I'm sorry I was turning
I mean Denise Richards
I mean is that the coolest wife ever
oh she was cool
comes out to the guest house
makes not only makes you establish
but the three hookers you banged the night before
I mean when she said for better
or for worse she took that to heart
I love her
Dude
What a fucking champion
Yeah she was great
Denise hooker
I'm sorry
Denise
Oh my God
I got a little ahead of myself
Paul
All right guys
How cool is it him and his dad beat
Charlie and his dad
beat Michael Jordan
A game up two on one
That car ride home
Must have been amazing
What was even better
I saw that live
Was Dick Van Patton
Doing the announcing
From 8 is enough
I just remember
He just kept going
Oh in the Sheans
by the way
how awesome
we all know Michael Jordan
bet the sheens come on man
you saw the last dance
how awesome was Martin Sheen dude
as a father dude
Martin Sheen just showing up to hospitals
going to the press conference
just a fucking dad
dude I'll tell you if you want to see a lot of
some of Martin Sheen's best work
there was a time when he was doing movies
and then he went to like
made for TV movies and then went back into the to cinema again, you know.
He's got some really good ones.
He had like the, I forget the name of the one.
I found a lot of them on YouTube, like the full thing.
It's really cool, like the ABC movie of the week, and it would be starring him.
And it was always a good story.
I saw one of him, and what was the name of it?
It's a classic thing where there's a dirty cop and he comes to town
and he's a young kid with the cool car
and people keep going off
this cliff and they're trying to figure out
who's killing him.
And the cop fucks with
Martin Sheen and that's his big mistake.
Vic,
what's his face?
Vic Murrow, is that his name?
The guy who died in the helicopter crash
and the, yeah, he's in that.
In a helicopter.
Is he in a helicopter in that
or is that in Crazy Larry
fucked up Mary, whatever that movie is?
I'm just going to stop talking.
dude they did wall street together how sick is that oh yeah you're looking at a man who doesn't judge
another man by the size of his what that became a catchphrase in our house

I watched it again.
Dude, every time I watch that movie, I realize how incredible it is.
It's incredible.
Every scene is incredible.
And Christopher Walls.
I got to see that one again.
Dude, Christopher Walls eating that cake.
He said, like, he ate, like, 15 pieces of cake while they, like, with all the takes.
But when he was eating it with the cream and she was just trying to fucking not throw up, oh, dude, incredible.
I got a good one for you on the Criterion Channel, which is Cinemax for Smart People.
There's still titties in Bush, but it's cinematic the way they do it.
Go see the, watch the parallax view with Warren Beatty.
It's a thriller, Paul.
Bill, I'm sorry.
After the Denise Hooker, I can't.
After the Denise Hooker, I just can't.
Listen, I got to open up.
Dude, I'm a mess right now.
I'm a mess.
Okay?
I'm overworked.
I'm not feeling appreciated.
I got more work today.
You know, I got some gigs coming up in a
crazy part of the world. I got friends getting fired. It's just, it's just been a fucking crazy week.
You know what you need to do? You need to go down, get a golden retriever, bring it home to your
two kids, let them freak out about it, and then all good is in the world again.
Yeah. Oh, come on, too. Why can't I get like a little red-nosed pit bull?
Looking like me back in the day when I used to go to the gym and I had hair.
You did that once.
Well, Billy back in the day.
Because a golden retriever
You know what you're getting
You know
But I need something
That's gonna do something
A golden retriever is like a Japanese car
A golden retriever is a Japanese car
You put it
You feed it
It's like putting oil in it
It's not going anywhere
It's done
You know what a golden retriever is
A gold retriever is fucking pleasant
And what pleasant people do
Is they attract fucking sociopaths
And narcissists
Because they're the only ones
They put up with them
If someone has a golden
retriever that i'm telling you right now i do you there's like an 80% chance there's something
psychologically wrong with the arm it's like a comment that doesn't curse no evidence to
back up what i just said like a comic that doesn't curse but then you find out you find out
you find out what's under the bed bill cosby told eddie murphy you cannot say fucking
who yeah um all right everybody didn't say anything about not
putting shit and drinks.
Denise Hooker is the, it's the, it's the, put a little shine in my day.
