I was lucky this week because I went 4-0, but one of them had me on the fucking... one of them had me... actually, I just looked up... You're almost four years in a row beating the book. This isn't luck at this point. Well, we'll see. It's only I'm only a couple you know, I'm not fully up yet. I got to be like 15 to 20 up. But anyway, how far up are you just? I think I'm 12 games. I think I'm 12

games above. Dude, that's fucking insane. You went down like seven, eight games. I was down eight. I was down eight games after week five. That's a 20 game turnaround. Do. Yeah, well, you know, I'll fucking play modest. Hey, Bill. I know you're walking around your house talking. Paul Verdi, modest Paul Verzi. I don't know that guy. Bill, I gotta tell you something. I think it's gonna put you in a good mood. You see the hat I'm wearing right now? Does it look familiar? This was the hat I threw off of my head on the 18th green in Vegas. Oh my God, that was my favorite things ever. The glasses first.

Ah! Chipped in. And then I hugged a stranger that I just met two hours earlier from behind. He was your caddy. He was your caddy. He was a caddy, but I hugged him from behind and screamed, yeah!

Yeah. Yeah. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha. Paul, what's going on in New York? but I hugged him from behind and screamed, yeah. Yeah. Paul, what's going on in New York? We were just talking about it. That CEO got fucking whacked. Oh my God, dude. You know what's funny? I was sitting there reading an article, a guy,

they go, oh my God, he's such a great guy. He had a wife and kids and he's such a great guy. And then you find out he and the other guys he's working for are getting sued for $121 million for dumping a stock and not letting the other people know. It for are getting sued for $121 million for dumping a stock and not letting the other people know. It's like there's your motives. Dude, anytime I hear CEO of one of the biggest healthcare, it's like, you don't wish it on anybody. You feel horrible for his kids and his wife, of course. But dude, when I saw

that and I saw what was- What is more heartless than a fucking CEO of a corporation the decision in healthcare the decisions that they make this is a thing I'm not saying what happened should have happened but I'm just for them to be like oh this is like why would anybody want to do this it's like they're denying claims and people are dying the food supply is poison it's like the the fucking motive out there is wild. It's right up there, Paul, with getting life insurance. The second you get life insurance, whoever is the beneficiary

immediately has motive. You are now worth such and such amount of money if you're not alive. And there you are talking. That's the first time in my lifetime, in my lifetime where I saw surveillance of something that was like a fucking movie, where the guy just stood out holding the gun, silencer hat, shot him and just went off. That was fucking wild to see. My buddy who's a cop, like was like, did you see the surveillance?

And when I saw him step out, I was like, is this real? That was nuts, dude. That was so funny. Is this real? Paul, are you watching the world? I was fucking Vladimir Putin. He's so funny. Is this real? Paul, are you watching the world? I was fucking Vladimir Putin. He's over there. He's got like musk. He just he fucking put the cologne on and all of a sudden you start breaking out like three days

later, you're dead. Fucking brutal. I thought the most disturbing thing about it was that they had survey camera surveillance of the guy from there all the way up to Central Park. It's like what sort of big brother city is that? Yeah. Yeah. And they, yeah. And then they got him in a bank now and they were like, dude, that's not the same fucking guy. Like different jacket, different. I don't think they know.

They got him a cup of coffee. Well, this is the thing, Paul. They did. The thing about those, those, um, murders is if there's no fucking connection to you and the victim, you've never met, you've never spoken, you have no priors or anything like that, you're in the wind. Like, I don't know how the fuck you would get that. He's covered up like this. I don't know.

You know what's fucked up, Paul, is I've been doing a bit in my act talking about how it was better when the mob was running shit because they were regulated fucked up, Paul, is I've been doing a bit in my act, talking about how it was better when the mob was running shit, because they were regulated simply because what they were doing was illegal. And I know that they were making a bunch of money, but they couldn't be flashing around. They had wars, they whacked each other and shit. And I was saying, like, how fucking great would it be to see, like, you know, the head of fucking, you know, Walmart gets whacked by the head of the fucking Target guy, have a nice old fashioned fucking war, just spin the herd

and keep everybody honest. But the problem is, those guys are all on the legal side of stealing. And all of those politicians, they give the politicians the heads up and then they turn around, they make these, they make all these fucking money. Andrew, what the fuck were you saying? Nancy Pelosi just made nine million bucks on some shit? They're gangsters, dude. Fucking gangsters. And then one of them gets whacked or something like, oh, good, he was such a good guy. It's a dirty game, Paul. Healthcare. Healthcare. Dirty game.

It's a dirty game. I tweeted last night, I go, the CEO of Aetna called a meeting today. They're going to relook at some of those claims they denied. Jesus, dude. But so I heard an ex-military guy go because two ex-military guys talked and then John Walsh from America's Most Wanted talked. John Walsh doesn't think it was a professional. This ex-military guy said the way he was standing and the way he held his gun was definitely some training involved. But the weird thing was knowing the guy was gonna be there at 6 a.m. in the morning, they said the dude knew he'd be there and the dude was there for hours. But here's my question, Paul. Why is there this level of coverage? Somebody gets gunned down in New York every fucking day. Now all of a sudden all these experts have to weigh in. Yeah. That's because of the status. We can't have white guys in suits getting whacked. Like we got to find this fucking guy. Do that like that

thing right there too. That fucking right there. That sent a ripple shockwave. Dude, Bill Clinton fucking got up from Epstein Island and said, what happened? I think that, no, no, he said, I think the record shows. I think the record, no right no no I'm saying like those people are all talking about it under their mountain or whatever that fucking thing dude they don't give a fuck Paul if you came up and you whack me because I fucking took you fucking whatever your your picks for the week that that just yeah that's fucking page 19 of the post you start whacking a fucking CEO. When a white guy in his suit

can't walk into a five star fucking hotel without getting shot by a silencer. Yeah, they get nervous. Yeah, dude, that was man. Yeah, it was insane. It's always I feel bad for his family and all of that type of stuff. I'm not saying that shit, but I'm sitting there, you know, I'm sitting there saying I think I'm a coffee hit well oh the lights come on gingers do not look good with overhead lighting especially bald ones I'm just saying like I this this thing that they're showing the way they're spinning and how dangerous is New York that a white guy in a suit can't walk around?

It's like, that's not why they're doing that, dude. That's because, hey, that guy was making us a lot of fucking money. Dude, I bet all those Giuliani guys were going, dude, was that you? Did you call that? Was that us? Was that us? Because I didn't hear on the meeting. Am I next?

Am I next? Oh, dude, there was some... Like they were all nervous going wait a minute wait a minute that's actually a great point. Please tell me that was just some random dude that's a great that was inside and I didn't know that that was happening is it I got a green light on me he starts dying his hair again yeah man that was. Oh, I just feel for the kids. That's all I give him.

I do too. And I feel for his wife. And I also feel for that guy because I looked at his dumb face and I'm like, this guy just did this career. And it's just as you're moving up and you're moving up, you hit more of your soul has to fucking go away. That's a soulless fucking business, dude. Yeah. Yeah, yeah.

And I believe- Health care. United is the biggest health care company in the world. Dude, that's a big whacking. It's a big one. I'm telling you, Paul, whatever they were talking about today, in their big Illuminati meeting, that was definitely, is there over there drinking virgin blood?

Like, dude dude you see that fucking CEO dude you got to do a bit that's a funny bit how guys are going hey like trying to feel their friends out hey did you see what happened is that us that was us was that us that's funny hey man like i know that was kind of a public thing and you can't tell too many people but like you know i i kind of thought i was in the circle i thought it was in the circle of trust like at 7 30 hey dude you see the news this morning? You don't even say what it was, you just find out. He goes to the Illuminati mountain

and he's got his pass card. He says, please work, please work, please work. He puts the card up, fuck. Dude, that's, yeah man, that's- I just want my inner my out, okay? I just want it out. That's why this show is the funniest.

It's the best. Paul, is there anything better than when you had a busy morning, you didn't have coffee and you have the caffeine headache that first fucking sip? I understand heroin. Oh, I mean, you're a different man from when we first logged on. No, but that's oh, when I was driving. Oh, and I took the wrong fucking highway to get over here. Well, fuck. I mean, come on. Those those were some extreme. That was like effect snow, the emotional version of that. Um, yeah, dude, I was I was my buddy sent me that and they were and

then the guys got in it. It's so funny how everybody knows. Everyone's dude is gun jammed three times. I'm like, well, he fucking got, he did what he had to do, which is horrible. Nobody unjammed it. I was talking to an ex-cop and he was talking about that going like, no, but he cleared it. But then he was also saying, but like, would a pro have a fucking gun that, what is it dirty or fucked up or whatever? I say, I don't know. Might've been one of those fucking stupid guns you make who knows paul but i gotta tell you this is the biggest whacking i feel since that fucking guy outside his fox steakhouse but is this the first one you ever saw what do you mean first i was saying before i think this is the

first whacking that you actually saw. Like with Paul Castellano, there were no cameras. So you just saw his body. Yeah. Paul was the eighties. Yeah. Catalytic converters. They, the fucking Cadillac was this big.

There was nowhere for him to hide. Yeah. And you just saw like a hand with all those crime video, those mob, old mom. Would you just see like fat fingers under a car? You don't see, this was the first time I actually saw the guy walk up and do it, which was actually creepy to me to see that. Well, it should be. Well, I don't watch any of those beheading videos.

I never watched that shit. No, no, I never watched that shit. So, um, you know why I'll never get killed in the morning? Hey, cause I'm asleep and all right. You gotta wait till lunchtime to get me. No, wait a minute, Paul. He came home at 7 a.m And you've been known to go till 9 a.m drinking

That's no blow. No peds not like these these other guys that fucking No No, no, i'll go I just picture a hitman trying to get me like dude this guy sleeps It's yawning Is this no, but they would know though they would they would be watching you. Yeah. Like all right, he gets up and he gets up at fucking 1131 every day. He's called in front of this mirror. I love that your daughter does that impress you? Oh, my son and daughter they all do my whole family. They do the

mouth. They do the whole fuck it. They do the whole thing. God forbid, dude. God forbid. So you know what's creepy is that guy knew days before like I'm going to New York. That's what's wild. But yeah, dude, there's motive with healthcare. Paul, I'm gonna tell you something. It's like all of these, the corporations that profit off of war, these people that have covered things up, these corporations that have killed people, they're all of those people. There's motive for all of that. It's just, they got it all fucking sewed up.

We're seeing it in Fox News. They never rat those guys out ever, ever. They never talk about that shit. They'll go political. They'll fuck over, you know, oh my God, Joe Biden's son, he's pardoning fucking Joe Biden. How dumb is that? How dumb is the right wing outrage about that? It's so fucking stupid. It's like your guy is going to go in and pardon himself. It's just like your team cheats, mine and pardon himself. Oh, he fucking is, cause it's just like, your team cheats, mine doesn't, it's so dumb. It's the, dude, if my son beats somebody to death in a fucking Macy's and I'm the president, he's walking.

She's walking. I don't know what you're talking about. I can't go with you on that one. No, I'm saying he's getting mentally ill. We gotta do something about it. We'll put him away somewhere. I'm in a protective custody, but you know, my kid kills somebody, no, you can't have that out there.

No, I know. And I gotta walk away from you. Yeah, the out. Let's do these picks Paul, I have no fucking, yeah, yeah, yeah. I have no time. Andrew, let's get into the picks here, I believe it's week 14, which means, is it Bill's pick?

It's Bill's pick, I believe. Yeah, it's Bill's, which means, is it Bill's pick? It's Bill's pick, I believe. Yes, Bill, it's your pick. I thought I picked first last week. Oh, what did I just do? What did I just do? Wait, did Bill? Where's, where, oh, the picks are over here. Andrew, are you there?

Yes. Did Bill go first last week? You know, you guys had swapped it once. I'm trying to remember. Bill was going first this year, which is odd. But then you had swapped it. So I think you're first. Paul, you went 4-0.

Give a guy a chance here. Yeah, yeah. Bill, both of the first. I love the fucking Lions winning by 20 points and then almost losing the game. No games ever over, Paul. Watch all those commercials. Andrew, I need the lines up if you can. And we have no Jake. Yeah. We got Jake. Oh, there

he is. Hey, what's going on? Hey, I was wondering if you had one of your bitches in there. What movie? What movie? Come on, guys. What movie? I know exactly what he's talking to what's his face? Stacks? Yes. Sam Jackson. He goes, I thought you had one of your bitches in here. He goes, he goes, I did shit. Where'd she go?

The way he says bitches, you can tell how racist his character is. That's one of your bitches in here. Jake, what do we got? Any, any, any injuries? Big ones other than McCaffrey? Yeah, big ones. Trevor Lawrence is out for the year for the Jags after that hit that he took last week. And then Christian McCaffrey is also out for the year. His season is over after the injury he had against Buffalo. And then the good news is Matt Stafford, there's a report saying he sprained his ankle, but he practiced fully yesterday.

So he's gonna be out there. So those are the big ones that I saw. Underrated Hall of Fame career and great career Matt Stafford. Yeah for sure. Champion. Underrated on this podcast Jake the Snake. I mean Jake comes in look Jake comes in and he just gives you the goods right out of the gate. He's back he's backlit I always love that he's backlit like he's some holy deity and then he you know what he does Paul he brings a professionalism. He's got the aura behind him. He is. We're gonna we're gonna lose them to ESPN any day now. I just want to say, you know, go. It's a kids day. Go get the bag. All right.

It's gonna be it's gonna be Steve. Steven A Smith yelling you wrap that thing. Jake, you stay away from them. Who is It's gonna be it's gonna be Steve Yelling at Stephen a Smith yelling and then Paul just going well, I just said Jake just going I disagree I would be heartbroken if I saw Stephen a Smith yelling at Jake But I was feeling Stephen a Smith is kind of cartoony upset it said other guy But I was feeling Stephen A. Smith is kind of cartoony upset. It's that other guy. Yeah. Skip. Skip. Skip. Skip Stevenson. What's his name? Skip Bayless. Skip that fucking guy. It's just like I wouldn't be surprised if he even watches sports. No, he got fired from everywhere. Andrew, can you put the lines up? Wait, Bayless got fired? Well, he got

fired. Yeah, he got fired from the Yeah, they didn't renew his first take contract. They didn't renew his first take contract and Shannon Sharp left him because he didn't. I mean, the guy, you know, the guy's a mess. Shannon Sharp, that was the smartest move ever because, you know, there was only so long Shannon could handle a skip in his life before he had to sell charges. I don't know how you could sit across as a man who played the game at the level that he did, talking to some little shit named Skip in a fucking suit

who was telling me you didn't know what you were talking about. I mean, the level of patience that Shannon showed, it was a level of maturity, that's what they say. Hey, Paul, guess what game's sticking out to me because I don't know shit about football anymore. I'm gonna say the Dolphins. Oh. Lay out. Lay in. What did I do last week? Did I go 0-4 mercifully? Was it a 2 behind the year?

No, you won. You definitely won one I saw. One and three. Yeah! Hell yeah. Andrew, you know what I'm on this show for Paul is to give people realistic expectations. Andrew, Thameless be a rare one in three for Thameless. Jake the Snake two and two. Jake the Snake holding 500. Dude, what's his face? Andrew is stealthy. He's running right there with you. And you know what it is Paul? But everybody talks about you because you're in the New York market. Andrew's feed is in the middle of LA so nobody cares and there's Paul, you know, all Sicilian, he's got the hat, Pauly Cutlet sits, it just it writes itself. Somebody got it's fucking exciting. All right, I'm not taking the Dolph minutes. It's fucking exciting.

All right, I'm not taking the Dolphins Lane 6. Fuck that. Fuck that. What do you got? I'll tell you what I got, Paul. I got nothing. I'm just looking at whatever, whoever's got a plus sign. I'm not gonna lie, I hate this week.

Really tough week. It was a tough week. Oh, you guys are bitches. What are we doing? We're picking numbers here. Come on. I don't like it, man. I got a bad feeling about this one, Sarge. I would go with the, I just love Baker Mayfield. I fucking love that guy. He's a winner. He proved Colin Cowherd wrong time and time again again and we're still waiting for him to apologize and he hasn't therefore I'm taking Baker Mayfield laying six and a half at home against the Raiders. I do love the Raiders though.

Somewhere along the line Paul I became a big Raiders fan. Why is that not around their fans? I'm a big Raider fan. I'm going to take. I'm going to take the Cardinals at home, minus two and a half against the Seahawks. I just never, I just don't think the Seahawks are that good. And if the game was in Seattle, I may not do it with this line, but at home, I think the Cardinals can win by three.

I'm gonna take the Cardinals. All right, I'm gonna go Monday night, Paul, and I'm gonna take the Cowboys, plus 6 1 1⁄2. That's the shit show that is the Cowboys. Oh! I'm gonna take them plus 6 1 1⁄2, because that's a classic fucking game where you're like, Joker's gonna come in there,

the Cowboys are gonna fucking mess, he's gonna throw it all over the yard. Guys, he's gonna do that in the first half. And then inexplicably, the Cowboys are gonna come back and cover. Sorry, I'm a little fucking, I'm a little, you know, I'm a little hurt this week with what the Lions did to me. Not only did they do it to me, I got no phone call from that organization going up by 20 points, making me all excited. call from that organization. Going up by 20 points, making me all excited. You know, the Lions play the Packers tonight and the Packers are getting three and a half and I just don't want to touch it. I don't know why because the Lions are at home. I just don't like it. But I'll tell you what, maybe you want to enjoy your Thursday night. I'll tell you what I

do like. I'll tell you what I do like. This is the one game I looked at and I go, maybe I'm gonna take the chargers getting four against the Chiefs in Kansas City. I think everybody and their mother thinks the Chiefs are going to win this game and they may win the game. I like the four points and I think the chargers need to hang with them to show that they could go on a little run. Who knows? Jim Harbaugh likes these kind of games. He gets his guys up for these kind of games. I'm expecting a big game from Justin Herbert. I got the Chargers on the road, dude. The Raiders lost that game. The Raiders, the quarterback wasn't looking at the snap or the game's over. I like the Chargers. All right. All right.

I'm just feeling suicidal this week. So I'm gonna fucking take the Panthers. Oh. They burned me bad last week. I can't even say this without laughing. I'm gonna take the Panthers getting 12 and a half against that fucking headcase and his team. Saquon Barkley, who's just playing like a frigging superhero.

And I just feel like they come out and they fucking stomp the shit out of him in the first fucking half. And then they just sort of crawl back and they're gonna cover. There's no sports show that gives picks funnier than this. It just doesn't exist. Dude, that fucking guy, he, old Nicky down there.

Old Nicky, Nicky Voices. Wanna know why? Because when Nick puts his head on the pillow at nightfall, it takes a lot of fucking pharmaceutical work to get that fucking brain to go to niggie voices. Oh, yeah. You're not good enough. Yes, I am, I am good enough.

He's just arguing with himself as his wife's rubbing his head. No other show will start laughing before a picket's great. All right, let me see here. I used to know a club owner that looked like him. When he fucking, not going to say who, it was way back, it was a satellite room, but when he had his fucking winter hat on and he looked at the camera and did that fucking nod, that was, like, I was just like, this guy is insane.

Did they take this guy out of a casino? Like who does that? As a coach. When he was going like, and he looked at the thing, yeah. No, they nodded vigorously like, you know like those fucking non-athletic fat fucks in the crowd and the game's about to start and they're going, and they're nodding

because they saw a blue chip wide receiver do it. And now they're like, they got that man tits fucking jingling like that's oh fuck is the guy in seat 28a is he amped up remember he looked at the fans and he goes see ya when they won because they were yelling he goes oh I love that because Paul you gotta understand in life it's never about what somebody says, it's the subtext. Yeah. It's just, what they were saying to him was so like lining up to what the voices in his head say.

Okay? And then he wasn't yelling at them. He was yelling at his inner turmoil. Oh, you called Rex Ryan, dude. You called Rex Ryan like week five, four of, Ryan, dude, you called Rex Ryan, like week five of that for that guy's career, you call them. I do. Listen, game recognizes game. Okay. I can, I can spot somebody out of their fucking mind. struggling. As this

island for a family photo like that. I'm like that guy's barely hanging on. I feel you. You want a cup of coffee? You want to dump your day on me? Cuz I know you wife's sick of hearing it. You fucking unload it. Dude, you called him early and we're right.

I know and if he wasn't head coach of the Jets and we weren't rivals, there still was a part of me rooting for him because you know, I just, you know, I see, I just, he needed a hug. We'll go out there and show them we're the best fucking team in this fucking, fucking league and he's dropping all those F-bombs trying to just try it we're gonna go out there and kick the fucking shit out of him that's what we're gonna do and it was just we're gonna show all these sports writers that i'm just as good as my dad even though he was too busy coaching football to hug me or my brother

imagine if he did that he's like we're gonna go and kick the shit out of him. Now the meeting's over. He just went in his office and he sat down and went like this. Dude, that's an SNL sketch. Remember subliminal man? You just had the subtext guy right next to him. Hey man, you ready for this?

Absolutely. Like the guy's like, dude, I am shitting myself right now. Oh, if I could go into a closet right now and just cry and have a robot do this job for me, I think I would feel better. Oh, my god. No, no, that's all right. Well, I gotta I gotta pick game three here. I'm thinking, Jake, the snake, I gotta pick game three here. I'm thinking Jake the snake. What are the bears record Chicago's record?

I think they're still stuck on four wins. They've got, they had a couple of tough losses in a row to every team in the division. Pretty historic. But yeah, I think they're- Everything that comes out of Jake's mouth, the tone, the delivery, I delivery, it's just amazing. It's soothing.

It is. I'm gonna take the Atlanta Falcons. Thank you. I'm gonna take the Atlanta Falcons getting five and a half against the Vikings. Kirk Cousins, they're gonna be in that game. And I like it. I like the five and a half too.

All right. Hey, Andrew, on this next one, can you play some music underneath it? When I go to when I go to pick it, can you play that song? Make a wish, baby. Are you gonna take the points? Make a wish, baby. Paul, how the fuck does Alabama get in with three losses? Oh my God. What, what do they have to fucking do?

What does Alabama have on these fucking guys? They wouldn't even do, they wouldn't even listen. I'm going big here. They wouldn't even let Ohio State in with three fucking losses. Even Ohio State Buckeye fans would be like, all right, it wasn't our best fucking year. Dude, I'm telling you, man, that is old money. That's plantation money, Paul. Can I say this?

I have to say that that Michigan-Ohio State game was the worst played football game and worst quarterback play I've ever seen on any level in my entire life. I've never- Not true, but it had the greatest results. That wasn't the worst game you've ever seen, come on. No, quarterback play I've ever seen on any level in my entire life. I've never true, but it had the greatest results. That wasn't the worst game you've ever seen. Come on. No quarterback play, dude.

I've never seen it. I mean, it was one guy had eight complete. I mean, it was terrible, man. Michigan didn't have a quarterback all year. Yeah. I love the Dave Portnoy running out of his house, dying. That was the funniest shit ever. Yeah. He loves Michigan. Well, he went there. Oh, my God, dude. Like, can you imagine not only do you fucking lose, you got to listen to Dave Portnoy just crashing you.

Laughing. I think it's the happiest I've ever seen the guy. And then he jumped in his pool. I mean, that was, he was just... Oh, I missed that part. That was his Super Bowl. That was his Super Bowl. Oh, it's fucking great. That fucking video is, that's, it's just why it's so fun. Why do we care? But I relate it to the whole thing. I was so happy for him. But if he was a Buckeye fan, I'd be like, fuck this guy. It's just something about Buckeye fans. They just, ah, the cunts. They're such, all right. I don't like anybody who's more whiny than me. I think that that's my issue with them. All right. The Bills going into the Rams, the Rams get three and a half.

I'm gonna take the Rams get three and a half Paul. This is the opposite week. Oh. Because I feel like Josh Allen's gonna go in there, right? He's gonna go to, this is what's fucking hilarious. I saw this fucking thing. Some lady, like he just got engaged. So I'm scrolling through and it's a football thing.

So all of a sudden there was some lady there talking about his ex-girlfriend and some shady things she tweeted about his engagement. And I swear to God, she goes, "'Okay guys, there's a lot to unpack here.'" And I was like, is there? Why do you give a fuck about his ex-girlfriend? I know. Did you see what she said? Yeah. No,? Why do you give a fuck about his next girlfriend? I know.

Did you see what she said? Yeah. No, and I don't give a fuck. Let me guess. It was just because it was about CTE. She was like, good luck with this CTE stricken guy. She's like, I'd rather date an owner anyway. Some people are like, the youngest owner in the league

is like 52 when he's married. Like, what owner of what are you talking about? And then she said she got hacked. And she said, Oh, I got hacked. I think you hacked yourself. And I think with that tweet, you probably said why the guy broke up with you. That just sounded like,

that sounds like an absolute nightmare. Well, just motivated by money. But I'm trying to stay on topic here is the fact that somebody who doesn't know anybody involved is doesn't know anybody involved is, does a deep dive. Like you know something, Andrew you got married right? I never thought to look into your past. You know what I mean? Lots on deck here.

Well you wait, when Jake the snake finally gets fucking married. You watch all his exes are going to be throwing the Jake lets them down easy. Imagine that we're on that we're on a conference call. We're on a conference call without Jake going dude, his injury reports haven't been the

same. But is he all right? What's going on? He's just slipping. I had some money. There's a chick in the background grabbing stuff. He takes his cell phone picture. He's got a Hawaiian shirt and a cigar and two fucking horse. Jake, come

on, man. We're not saying you can't have fun, but you got to come back. You know, you can do that. You can do the podcast from poolside. It's like the last dance when Rodman went to Vegas, Mike's like, he's not coming back.

Like we have to knock on his door. Jake's bitch is way of Jimmy's. Oh, fuck, Mike, Mike, Mike, laptop's gonna die here. What do you got, Paul? What do you got? All right, all right. All right, man, I'm gonna go. I'm gonna take the Chicago Bears getting four in San Francisco.

You know, I think if San Francisco needs to win so bad, I think if they win, it's by a field goal. McCaffrey is out. It just seems like they're going down. I hate to say that every week to Niner fans, but let's just see. You know, this is literally the last. Who's arguing with you? Yeah. Who's arguing with you? Yeah.

Who's arguing with you? You had a 20 game fucking turnaround. I haven't seen a turnaround like this since Clemens went to the fucking Blue Jays. And the guy was a donut eating fucking son of a bitch in 96. And then he goes over there and all of a sudden he's fucking yoked. Paul, hey, back to back. Cy Young's he got in the gym. A lot of, a lot of miracle supplements out there.

Hey, you know what I mean? But you gotta know the right ones. You still gotta do the work Paul. Still gotta be in the gym splitting your slacks doing squats. All right, let's uh, let's do the Monday night special. I agree with Bill. All right, let's do the Monday night special. I agree with Bill. I agree with Bill. I like the Cowboys getting six and a half at home at Jerry's World.

I think they gotta at least be competitive. So I like the points. They got that stiff at quarterback though. I swear to God do. Oh Rush. Oh my God. He should have mannequin hair. Yeah.
