What's up, everybody, and welcome back to the Anything A Better podcast, really the best sports, best NFL podcast out there with me, Paul Versey, Bill Burr. We got Jake the Snake with the injury report, as always, coming in clearer than ever, ladies, so you're going to like that. And, of course, Andrew Themless out there, the Beverly Hills kid. Guys, what can I say for two weeks in a row, Bill? I mean, two years in a row. two years in a row week one oh and four i mean guys just don't listen to me till week two or three i mean it is bad no no mid october paul mid october mid october you start turning it around jeez well i'm oh billy wins some lose some i went oh three and one i thought i was going to go

oh and four of watching that bill's ravens game oh dude what a game you got at the last second you got that that was great uh yeah i mean i got me i got me I fucking hate games like that. Those are the games for the youth. 42 to 40. Like there was no fucking team. Like the second half, they go, this is the first time the bills haven't scored.

Or like that Kansas City game, the Kansas City game Thursday night against the Chargers. It was like, we've had seven possessions and seven scores. It's like, yeah, there's no defense. Dude, how good is Lamar Jackson, dude? Yeah, he's, he's amazing. Dude, how about Travis, what's his face, Henry?

What is that saying the right name? Derek, Henry. Travis, Paul, I got two kids under 10. I'm hanging in there by my fucking fingernails. No, I said I mess up, I mess up his last name. That one-handed catch by that other guy, fucking wide receiver. Not they do doing this, the other guy. Dude, by the way, could he have done this any fucking longer?

And then they still lose the game. I just I don't understand Game isn't over Game is not over dude I saw up until the fourth quarter Last time I saw it was like 40 to 25 And then I went on stage So I still have to watch the fourth quarter

Where I heard Derek Henry fumbled And then they just came back I mean listen I love the bills I mean I look like half of them at this point You know The bills. They're literally...

Hello! Did I get kicked off? No, you're there. Am I still here? Okay. All right. You just froze for a second. Well, no aluminum siding?

Make your fucking house to showcase of your neighborhood. Dude, speaking of that, I got them here now. They're all renovating my house. I don't have my own house right now. they're putting new bathrooms in i got a guy over here stacy dude i just wake up to people drilling in my house that's why i'm outside got to get an office it's yeah it's you know some they don't care they don't care you think she cares what they're not gonna something's going on with that fee here dude you keep freezing on me i do yeah oh maybe i am i don't know oh i'm not funny

accuse of anything. No, I feel like, I feel like everything was going good, but dude, can I tell you something? My, my, Paul, you can tell me anything you want. My wife does not care that we have workers coming in and like, I need to know the schedule. She's just like, this is what it is. And I'm just like, all right, well, fuck me. I'll go fuck myself then. Okay. Just tell me. In defense of your wife, Paul. Are you really going to make that schedule? no she knows she knows she has to just pick up the ball and run it over the goal line they know i do the same thing with my wife i mean am i going to be included and then when she goes to sit down to tell me the schedule can i talk to you for a second i'm like i'm trying to watch the game

you know and then and then like a day late i'm like well what all these guys doing in here it's like i will i will give that i create all my own problems in the relationship when it comes to that. And women, women are planners, Paul. They got a whole fucking game plan. Women are like Bill Walsh.

They got all their plays called for the first half. Yeah. As you and I come walking out on the field, that's kind of sunny on, huh? Maybe I just go throw the ball. Dude, speaking of going back to football, did you see J.J. McCarthy?

Shout out to J.J. McCarthy, the new quarterback for the Minnesota Vikings. did what you said was the kiss of death as a rookie in his first NFL game ever throws a pick six to division rival bears it's looking bad and then dude the kid got it together and came back and won the game which is a really good sign for a young quarterback so the Vikings may have yeah when i was a kid paul when i was a kid if you threw a pick six you had like an 80% chance of losing a game not anymore game is never over no it's become baseball yes until you get that final out it's it's like it's purely for entertainment

purposes and if you love offense they have a league for you i uh i miss it paul i miss the hitting i miss the dominating defenses and i just uh you know i i i just i don't you know all right it's mad it's mad i don't i don't like shit all right i don't like i don't like shit all over the league. All right. I do this every fucking year. Let's just know. Top, Bill, top three defenses you've ever seen in your lifetime. Top three in your lifetime. Oh, obviously the 85 bears,

the fucking doomsday defense, the steel curtain. I saw some good ones. I would say, dude, your fucking defense, 2007 when you beat the Patriots, that front four dude that you had that would just, you know, making Brady move all day.

I mean, all of this fucking bullshit, too, about Eli beat Tom Brady. Did he? Eli did? Fucking helmet catch. Come on. He made a couple of good throws in there, but come on, dude.

Your fucking defense. Defensive line. At least in 2007, dude, that fucking front four, you basically had like supersized linebackers. Yeah. I felt like, look, I would never call anybody

Reggie White other than Reggie White, but it was like you had Reggie White's four illegitimate children. I mean, they were all like super strong with like linebacker speed. That was a great defense. I would say the first three Super Bowls, the Patriots won, where when we would win games like 19 to 17, 17, 17, 10, Teddy Bruske, Brable, all of those guys. right willie mcginnis ty law lawyer maloy all of those those guys are great those raider defense

that raider defense that destroyed the um the fucking uh redskins where who would who are their safeties were mike haynes and uh oh jesus dude you're just going way back i would say those 49er defenses that uh the ones that uh what about what about the years when like dion was going back and forth from the Cowboys to the 49ers. I mean, nobody was beating those defenses, dude. Oh, dude, they were incredible. Jake the Snake just came in and said the 2,000 Ravens only allowed nine points per game.

Oh, Ed Reed. Ray Lewis, oh, my apologies. Jake, the snake comes. Yeah, dude. But if you notice, Paul, it's all 2007 and before. Seattle had a good one there for a minute. You know, they had a good one. they had a good defense there.

I mean, listen, there was a lot of people doing Roids, whatever. Seattle had a good, that was a good defense, too. I don't know, you know, I don't know. The 49ers had a good defense against the fucking chiefs. They were just getting that this isn't a hold on the final drive. So I don't know. Yeah. And, dude, John L.

John L.A., what's his name? Lawrence Taylor, I believe 86. I believe the 86 Giants with Lawrence Taylor and Carl Banks had a really good one, too. I would say those guys were pretty good. Harry Carson. Do you know what, Paul? I bet today's defenses are just as good as the other. It's just there's so many rule changes.

They've gotten better, I feel like, with past interference, which I'm really happy for, that they let some, you know, some of that stuff go. They're much, I feel like they've gotten a lot better with that. I still, you know, two things in sports I'll never know is, is that a balk or is that a football move? I mean, you catch the ball, you turn and you get hit. They're like, did he move his other foot? I don't know. He caught the ball.

If my son did that, I would be applauding. It's not, you don't catch me. You have to catch the ball and do three other things after you catch it to make it a catch. I catch the ball, run five yards, and stiff arm, and then they'll review it. Yeah, so I don't know, I don't know what it is. But I would actually, you know, I think that Eagles defense last year was great. But I feel like the rule changes, they don't allow a defense now to be as dominant. I mean, they used to be, you know, you know, when we were coming up, you know, up until like

the 2000s, maybe up until, like, say, that Seattle defense, where it was. It's just really like, we're not going to score more than 12 points, 14th. They just shut you down. They haven't let up a touchdown in the first half. Remember those kinds of defenses? All year. Like, I just, I mean, like I said, I'm also a curmudgeon. I'm sure, like some young kids right now is saying, I don't know what the fuck I'm talking about.

And I probably don't, but. Well, dude, the Ravens giving up nine points per game in the 2000. They beat the Giants that you're in the Super Bowl. but the Ravens giving up nine points per game in 2000 is pretty as dominant as could be. I mean, that's unheard of. That's unheard of. Yeah. Yeah.

Ray Lewis, dude. That was prime. They had two of the best guys ever at a position on two out of their three levels. And then they had that lunatic. The guy who painted all of his stuff on his face. So they had like, they had three major. There was no, where are you going to go in that, that whole defensive zone where you're not going to run into a future fucking. Hall of Famer.

That's one of the best to ever play the position. That's a great call to Regis. Dude, when we were in Vegas for the Super Bowl and we were in that cigar lounge and I saw Ed Reed sitting over a table from a smoking a cigar, I was literally like, dude, that's arguably one of the greatest safeties to ever live.

It was nuts. Yeah. No, that's happened to me a couple of times. One time I was in a cigar bar and James lights out Tony. Oh, yeah. He was in the corner, I'm like, you know. And he was the Philly Shell, right?

What do they call it? The Shell, he used to do that shit. Dude, all they do is amazing. They lean back like this, and your punch goes off of their shoulder, off their shoulder and misses your head. But my shit is like, doesn't your shoulder hurt after a while? That's still a professional boxer slugging you in the shoulder repeatedly. Anybody who had an older brother, when you watch the Philly Shell,

you're kind of like, I did see hair of a box. boxer. The way he beat it was he just beat the shit out of the guy's arms. It turns them into like fucking noodles. It's a great strategy, dude. It's a great strategy. That's one of my favorite things in sports is those boxers that you can't hit. It's just, it is mind-boggling that you can be that fast, that a professional boxer, like stand right here in front of you just going off and you're doing all of this stuff it's just like how yeah they said like when floyd mayweather would do that shoulder thing somebody had the greatest comparison they go it was like mariano's cutter you knew that that's what they were

going to do but you just couldn't for some reason it worked it just worked um dude you see that ufc guy the guy kicked his leg they're sitting there like this and the guy kicks his leg and it was like a slap and it just gets red and welted and he starts limping and then he switches up and the guy did the same thing to his other leg and he's literally like hobbling and then just went down and he tried getting up and the guy goes done he couldn't he he didn't touch him up here he just basically broke down from the knees that's the only thing that makes sense to me in the UFC dude if you kicked me like the fact that they can have a professional fighter kick him right in this like the charlie horse yeah yeah

And they just take it like, dude, I would be like, ha, that would be six months. How you do? I'm just getting back on my feet. I'm just, and they'll take like fucking 15 of those per round. Yeah. I don't like those guys, those UFC fighters, boxers, professional athletes, the level of pain.

Oh, dude, Alex Pereira. Yeah, the heavyweight guy, Alex Pereira, the guy who had, he was joking around in a gym with this, with the ufs the woman in the ufc that does the announcing so she got in gear and she's like come on just she goes just give me like a little kick to the calf and he's like no no i don't and she goes no like and she goes like and dude he did it and she just goes ow like he didn't i mean he barely grazed her like it was like he didn't even touch her and she was just like oh okay she's still feeling it okay yeah she's still wearing her flats she can't go back to the pump yet uh all right guys

You're going to watch Canella Alvarez this weekend? I watched. I'm really, I got to be honest. Can I be honest? I'm rooting for Crawford, man. I'm rooting for Crawford. I watch the countdown to it. That guy's upbringing, you know, and I love, don't get me wrong.

Canelo earned it. But, you know, Canello's on a quad in his house. He's like got the glasses and he's just, and this guy is like, I got to get my due. I feel, you know, but I'm going to watch it. I got to show, but I'm going to watch it after. All right. Before we bring him. All right, Paul, well, we've avoided talking about what we got to

destroyed him last week for long. Dude, I, and just, all right, I'm just going to, I'm going to confess my sins. I was like Kansas City, didn't win that one. I tied with the Bills and the Ravens. I was like, you know, I'm digging the dolphins. They're going to come out against the cults wrong about that. And I think I blocked out the last one. So I don't know.

Well, Jake the Snake, let's let Jake the Snake come in and give us any kind of injuries before we make our picks. Jake, do you got, what do you got to? got any juice for us jakey hey how you doing um mostly just the 49ers uh george kiddell's going to be out for a long time uh they put them on the i r and uh brock party is going to be out as well so saints you know are really bad team but um mac jones will be starting for the nineers is kind of like the biggest hey and by the way i don't mean to cut you off jake but for all our listeners we talked about it you guys design it we want an official bill me and themless we're talking about this i don't think we told you but i know you're down we want

somebody to design a Jake the Snake t-shirt. We want Jake's face on it. We want Jake's face on it. It's got to say Jake the Snake, if we have fans to design it, we will get it made, but we have to get a Jake the Snake, anything better, t-shirt.

We have to do it. The fact that Jake the Snake is not up in one of those NFL boosts with what the headsets on talking to somebody down the field. I mean, that's what we had to give him the franchise tag to keep them on the podcast. The man knows the game. He's got a TV outside. He's been watching game film all week.

He's got some color on his face. I'm telling you. James naked. Look, he saw we put our money where our mouth is and that this franchise believes in him. And now he's bringing it. He's fucking bringing it. What I love is that he got the haircut and the tan.

And he goes, we're starting the season right. And he got three wins. And he starts three. Three and one. Three and one, yeah. You guys got screwed on that Denver game. I mean, Mike, what was that? For those that don't know.

Well, with a pretty face. He's the brains. All right. So, Jake, all we got to worry about Brock Purdy out, but they're playing the Saints. So that's it, right? Yeah, pretty much. Everyone seems relatively healthy right now. At least those are, like, the major injuries, you know, for like the stars.

But, yeah, those are something to think about for sure. There was something I wanted to ask guys about the Bills game, actually. I don't know if you saw this, but the bills cut the lead to, or they cut the lead to seven, and then they kicked, so they had made the extra point, but there was a penalty. So it moved him up to the one yard line. So they decided to go for two and didn't get it. And this is the middle of the third quarter. So they were just chasing those points the entire game.

They went for two more times, didn't get it. They were down to what should have been the tie. So I don't know. What do you guys think of that philosophy to go for two? I saw a lot of teams this week go for two and not get it for a lot of times. Like I saw a lot of missed two-point conversion. You know me, dude. I say take the point.

Until you mathematically have to go for two, in my opinion, I think you got to kick the extra point. That's just I've always felt that way. My opinion is it takes you three to four downs to catch it, you know, get a touchdown, to score a touchdown. You go for a two-point conversion. You have to score another touchdown. You have one try at it.

For some reason, because it's only two points, people, they get this in their head like it's this foregone conclusion. And I don't know. I get going for a two-point conversion later in the game. The shit doing it in the first half, I think you just get as many easy points as you can. I like the direction there. Look at it. As many easy points as you can. And then in the end, if you're in a situation, looking at the clock,

how many more possessions you're going to get then you do it but like this whole fucking world series of poker he's going all in here comes to river seven minutes into the game is stupid and i'll tell you one of the times they went for two they were down nine so they went for two down nine they didn't get it so you're down two scores instead of one i just couldn't believe it no bill's a hundred yeah because if you kick the extra point there then you could be down by eight and then touchdown and maybe then then you go for two yeah they got they got lucky there Why dig a hole? Why dig a hole now?

Good point. Paul, why dig a hole ever? Why dig a hole ever? I mean, life is hard enough as it is. I mean, what do we dig in holes for? Put the shovel away. That's what I say. What do you think?

It's the first fucking hole I, Doug? All right, guys, before we do our picks, we got to shout out our sponsor. Guys, it is BetMGM. You know that. Here's how it works with us. We have a first bet offer for everybody. You download the BetMGM app to your device, and you use our code. B-U-R-R-B-U-R-R, very simple.

You sign up, you deposit at least $10 in your BetM-G-M-G-Sports book account. Place your first wager and receive up to $1,500 back in bonus bets if the bet loses. If the bet does lose, your bonus bets will be available once your initial wager is settled. Check the fine print for any kind of time limits on that. But, yeah, you're not getting cash. You're just getting bonus bets. And also, we have a first touchdown. So, for example, if you like Derek Henry to score the first touchdown, what you do is you

put that player, you bet the player to do that straight up scoring the first touchdown of the game. If your player scores a first touchdown, win your wager as normal. If the player scores the second touchdown, you'll get your stake back in cash. Only straight bets apply to the second chance. Any wager using a bonus bet, bonus or other reward token is ineligible for the campaign. So there you go, guys. It is my Bill went, Bill went first last week because he goes first on even years so it was my pick even weeks it is my yeah even weeks you know what i mean and it is my pick and guys i'm o'n four what do you want from me you know i got to get back on a horse here we go um all right for my first pick and i'll be on i got to get out

from under the horse yeah all right yeah but dude i actually and i don't mean this selfishly in a weird way i was if you went o and four and i went o'n four it made history for the show because we've never done that before. And then when you caught the half a game at the end, I was like, all right, you know what? At least we didn't go 0 and 8. All right, guys, my first pick, you know, I was going to actually, because I want to get off to Schneide, is that the right word? I wanted to get a win early. So I was going to go Packers commanders tonight. I just don't know, dude. That is a game where both teams to me are very similar. So I'm going to lay off that game. Here's what I'm going to do. I'm going to take the

Cincinnati Bengals. I don't love the half a point, but I think that they clicked on a little bit at the end. They ended up beating Cleveland. I'm going to take the Cincinnati Bengals that. Why are they the Bengals? The Bengals was an all-group girl group in the 80s. You always say, I'm going to take the Bengals. What's like and each other man to Nick Monday. I can't wait till Sunday. Well, taking the Bengals. I love the Bengals. Minus. I'm going to take the Spice Girls.

I've got the Spice Girls minus eight, all right? I'll take, yeah, I'm going to take the Cincinnati Bengals minus three and a half at home against the Jacksonville Jaguars. All right, Paul. There's a game that I love, but it's your Giants, so I'm not going to. The Giants plus five and a half. Bill, I'm not touching it. I'm not touching it. So you can.

I'm not touching it. Let me think about that. There's so many other games I could pick wrong before I go to pick that one. All right. You know, it's a weird game. That charges Raiders game. Both coming off wins. Both always fuck their fans.

I'm going to stay away. You know, one of them's going to be two. No, Paul. When was the last time the charges of the Raiders were fucking 2 and 0? That's crazy. All right. I'm going to, here we go. Here we go.

Fuck. Yeah, we'll leave you in one of these games. I can't. I, I can't. I'm going to take the dolphins. I'm betting against my team. What? Minus one and a half because no matter what, I'm going to be happy.

Either we get a fucking win. I just, I don't know. I watched this last week. I think we're going to hopefully go 500. It already seems like under Mike Vrable, we're in a better direction or whatever. Dolphins are coming off a loss. We're playing down in Miami.

I mean, those fucking guys beat us once a year when we had Tom Brady. So I just figure they're going to get us again. It's only a point in a half. Paul, I'll be honest with you, dude. I'm fucking, I'm swinging in the dark here. I'm going dolphins, minus one and a half. What's their coach's name?

What? Oh, my God. Mike Moriati? No. Mike McDaniel. Mike McDaniel. I think Mike McDaniel's, I think he's going to, he's going to, I don't know, he's been with that team long.

We're still getting, we're still getting used to him. So. All right, dude. I'm scared. I'm scared, dude. I don't want to. I'm going to take the Detroit Lions at home minus six against. the Bears. Detroit's coming off a really bad loss. And I think they got to, you know,

they got to pull it out, man. They got to win a game at home. And I think if there's still the Detroit Lions, they should win that game. The Bears aren't showing, didn't show great. You know, they let the Vikings come back on them. I'm going to take Detroit by less than a touchdown or a touchdown, if you want to call it that. All right. I like that. I'm going to take, it's just too many goddamn points. I'm just going to take the Brown. because they're getting almost 12 fucking points, and this is the NFL, and they're in the same division. And they scored 40 points against the bills.

Severy's going to be like, oh, my God, they're going to fucking trounce the Browns. And for some stupid reason, the Browns are going to cover. That's the only reason why I'm doing it, Paul. That's a great pick. That's a lot of points, dude. All right. All right.

What are the most lopsided victories of history. Boy, the Ravens really figured something out. I think they were really upset with themselves last week, and they came out, and they wanted to make a statement. Nothing is worse than when a game is out of hand. Bill Burr has his head between his knees crying. Isn't it the worst when it's over? Dude, I remember.

No, you know what the worst is? It's betting on the Kansas City Chiefs and they lose, and I got to watch their tip-y-toe dinking dunking down the fucking field, and they still don't win. That's the worst. I know. I might take them. dude, I remember two years ago, Ari Shafir goes, hey, you want to come with me and Renazizi to Giants opener against the Cowboys? I'm like, yeah, yes. And like Renazizi, I was like, dude, I'm going to get a grill. I go to Dick Sporting because I get a grill. Renazizi's like,

I'm bringing a tent. We just got, everyone had a list. We get there five hours early. We have the greatest time in this parking lot for five hours, dude. It was 31 to nothing Cowboys by the second quarter It ended up being 41 to nothing It was over Dude, it was like when we went to TCU Georgia It was or was it TCU

It was just No, it couldn't have been like that It couldn't have been like that Because we were also getting rained on In a fucking stadium that sort of has a roof But not on the sides It actually was drizzling It was raining sideways

Yeah And their entire, like, our backside was soaked. You know what it is? It's one of those things where it happens so quick. You're delusional. You're like, all right, dude, it's first quarter, dude. First quarter, you get two touchdowns right back. Right back.

That's what we were doing at the champion. They're scoring all their points early, Paul. You're going to come back. Dude, the defense figured something out. You know, when a good stop. Now they figured it out. They figured it out. Here we go.

Here we go. Here we go. Three and out. Fuck. I'm going to take the. All right. What do you got, Paul? I'm going to take the Pittsburgh Steelers and Aaron Rogers' first game in Pittsburgh against the Seahawks to win by a field goal.

They're feeling good after the Jets game and their home. I think the crowd's going to be into seeing Aaron Rogers. Seahawks got Sam Darnold. I'll take the better quarterback and the better coach. I'm taking Seattle, I mean, Pittsburgh against Seattle minus three. All right. I'm going to take the commanders tonight getting three points. against the Packers.

Whoa. Just because I like this game, and I also like the commanders, man. I like the direction that they're going in. They're a fun team, and I'm really happy for Washington Commander fans. They've been suffering a long time. I don't think, you know,

I don't know. I know the Packers are stacked, but they're in Lambo. Once again, it doesn't make any sense. You figure the Packers will easily cover it And, you know, I'm going to go with the commanders, Paul. I don't, I don't even have a logical reason. I just want to watch the game tonight.

I'm giving myself a reason to watch. By the way, dude. Oh, fuck, is this going to be one of those Amazon ones? And I got to fucking go through 52 portholes to turn them. I was a kid, you get turned on the game. And they didn't play Thursday. No, the commanders are really good. Dude, by the way, our show, let's be fair, Bill.

Let's be fair here on anything better. Our show has pointed out some favoritism towards the Chiefs. I got to be honest with you, every minute of football I watched last week, I didn't see a tic-it-tac bullshit call. I thought the game against the Ravens and Bills, they let them play, only calling blatant stuff. So so far, it's only one week. So far so good.

Well, you can thank all those people on the Internet that will call them out for it. Yeah. I think that's what happened in the Super Bowl. They got Taylor Swift there. They got all the eyeballs. They called up the dogs. They let them play. I've said it a million times in this thing.

You said it once and you'll say it again. But this is the, but this is got to be careful, though, with the Chiefs, Paul. Okay? Because you've got to understand like, you know,

they're still the pretty girl at the prom. As far as the AFC, as far as money. All right? I don't think that the NFL is a brand believes in Lamar Jackson or Josh Allen yet. They're bridesmates.

All right? I just don't think that, you know, it's a lot. with Travis Kelsey and Taylor Dane or whatever the fuck, right? There's just a lot going on there. There's a lot of eyeballs. It's a lot of money, Paul.

That's a lot of money. You know, it's a lot of money. Yeah. Yeah, I'll be honest with you. When I looked at this list, the first game that stuck out at me and, oh, it gave me to willies was the Chiefs getting won at home against the Eagles. and then scared Paul Owen 4 Paul

said don't do that, play it safe but you want to know what I'm the one who takes the book I'm the one who's taking the book okay good I don't like Owen 4 Paul I like this Paul Owen 4 Paul scared

throwing checkdowns Owen 4 Paul stays in his house Jake it off Paul sits in his backyard So his neighbors hears his, here's his, here's his fucking picks. Yeah. Owen four, Paul gets a deep call and goes, no, coach, why do that? Just, let's just dunk it down.

Let's get some yards. But four and old Paul goes, we're going deep. Owen four, Paul says, I have to get up early tomorrow. I shouldn't drink this. Oh, that's great. But the Paul I know, I'm fine. I'll be fine. Look, if the Chiefs go 0 and 2, here's the thing.

The Chiefs might be going down, Bill. The era might be ending. And if the error is ending, they're going to lose this game to the team that humiliated them in the Super Bowl at home in week two. I'm going to do it. You don't like it, do you? You just gave me to it. I just call it to business. If the Chief's error is over, what are they got?

You saw them trying to sell Josh Allen last night. I'm literally looking at on the Ravens game. They're showing me Josh Allen's wedding. photos. It's like, what the fuck do I give a shit about his wedding for? They really did show the vows. What am I doing? Yeah.

That, that to me was the nod. They're testing going like, okay, have we ridden this horse too far? It's a business, Paul. They're in sports gambling now. We're in, they are a gambling sports book, sports league. So you think if, if, okay, Bill, if Pat Mahomes is a horse, are they taking them in the backyard with the rifle? I would have to see the analytics on how football fans reacted to Josh Allen's wedding photos during the Bill's Ravens game to see if they are ready to walk away from Travis Kelsey and fucking Madonna.

I just picture a fat bearded football fan. I just picture a fat bearded football fan holding a beer going, it's a beautiful picture, though. It's a nice wet. It's a nice outfit. You know, I was going to root against the bills tonight. But when I see, when I know the quarterback of the other team has truly found love, you know, it's really hard for me. You know, Paul, some things are bigger than the game. You know, you can only guess what their first song was, you know.

All right. Hey, if you're a single quarterback, will they show you with two strippers giving you a fucking lap dance? Will they show that fucking picture? You just see Lamar Jackson. They said they shut down all the Hooters, but he found one more. Independently owned in Akron, Ohio. Oh, oh. All right.

Hold on. Let me just see if this is... Shout out to Josh Allen getting married. I mean, just as a football fan, I'm so glad that they shared that with me. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. All right, Paul, who you got? You're going to bet on a K-pop band here? Are we going to be going to say a football team this time?

I'm going to do the Chiefs getting one at home. If they go 0-and-2, they're in big trouble, I think. Yeah, I like that pick just for the, you know, I'm Billy Conspiracy. I'm Billy Conspiracy. Is that my third? Yeah. I keep going back to that charges raider.

game and I just go back to who's the better quarterback you know I don't like that half a point Paul I hate the half a point it'll get you every time I don't like my hair line you know there's a lot of things I don't like this one um Steelers at home minus three I don't like that one Paul I'm just swinging in the dark here I'm just you know I'm just betting on games I want to watch the bills and the Jets. Oh, six and a half points. You like the Giants?

Huh? At the beginning, you said you liked the Giants game. I didn't touch it. My four picks are in. Paul, I'm an AFC guy. I don't know what to tell you. You are. You are a FC guy.

You are. Ah. I'm going to go. Oh, JETS, Jets, Jets, Jets, getting six and a half at home. Division rivalry. Everything tells me to take those points. Six and a half at home.

Bill's coming back from a wild... I'm going to take the Jets. Ooh, I like it. This is how much confidence I have in that... That's what makes this show so fun. When you take the Jets and the points, that's the mean. That's great. Oh,

somebody's got to make that meme. By the way, I feel like I'm going to watch a fun game. I love the bills. They're just a fun team to watch. I love watching the Ravens. I like watching the Eagles. Those are all fun.

There's a lot of fun teams out there. Dude, how are me and you friends? Me and you are opposite in every, your AFC. I'm NFC. I'm NFC. You're Boston.

I'm New York. You're light skin. I'm a little darker. The overlap is we're both degenerates. Yeah. Paul, we don't read. We put way too much importance on sports. Like, we talk about sports the way people talk about politics. But we've had discussions on sports that you would think was like we were solving the world's problem.

No, if you, like, graph the audio and you had to guess, is this two people talking about the Gaza Strip? Or are these two guys talking about the tuck rule? We've had discussions about quarterbacks on the phone like they're in the war room in the Pentagon. One of the loudest I yelled in a decade was we were talking about middleweight boxing champions in the 1980s. Oh, God.

Yep, I remember. Are you going to watch Canelo Crawford this Saturday night? Yeah. Two of the last Mohicans, dude. Those are two of the last great boxers. And then boxing. Hey, then it's rough for boxing. after that boxing might be uh what about the locks stock and four smoking barrels that fucking

guy Tyson what's his face isn't he he's good for the sport right well dude he's i mean are you talking about Tyson fury yeah i know he lost but is he no but i think he's old though dude like i don't think there's like a like canelo and this guy were the last guys that like nobody could beat and good i don't know i mean i'm sure there's some young guns coming up but like you know and they hired your boy there boxing hired your boy there boxing hired you boy there to save it your boy dana white over there he's uh he's kind of the he's the new boxing that conflict of interest like the ufc destroyed boxing no dude on if you watch uh countdown to canello crawford dana white is a big part of it and he goes he goes i grew up loving boxing more than

anything and he goes and it just went horrible he's like i think dana i think he did box i think he boxed it yeah what happened was was uh you know a couple of those promoters and then the independent and it just, it got all fucked up. And then you had like, there was like five middleweight champions, the three of them. Then you had to try to unify the title. Yeah. And then they created like 58 different divisions. So everybody had a title.

So everything was like a title fight. And then a title fight wasn't a title fight was a big deal. And then the best guy, yeah, and then the best guy didn't have to fight the next best contender in boxing, which the UFC, you have to, or you lose it. You'll lose the belt if you don't. where in boxing they could be like nah he's on steroids but he doesn't want to lose you know shit like that

well I'll be honest I think you know if you're gonna bring it back like that's Dana White's the guy to do it that's like right in his wheelhouse and it's also great if you get a guy that knows how to run that stuff and he also has a passion and he loves boxing I mean it would be

I mean boxing before Don King and all of those guys fucked it up. It was like some of the fighters out there and some of the fights that you saw were just incredible. It's been too long. It's been, yeah.

Mickey Ward and Gotti, Arturo Gotti, rest his soul. Those fights were great. I'm going back to John the Beast Mugabe. Alexis Argueh. Julio Cesar Chavez. Like, dude, even Oscar Delahoya like when he was a kid.

Like when he was like 21, 22. Like those guys were, dude, Mani Pachio. Michael Dokes. Remember Pernell Whitaker? Sweet Pee, rest of soul. Yeah, dude. Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Mani Pachial

fought nine years later than their prime. It's like a guy like Dana White doesn't allow that, so I like that he's coming in there. Yeah. All right. Well, we got a Monday night special, right? What are we got, Andrew? Chargers and Raiders.

Oh, oh, Bill. Raiders coming off a win. Going home. Their fans are excited? Tom Brady's. What are the Raiders do? What do the Raiders do consistently when their fans get excited? I mean, I don't know.

Put on a Darth Vader helmet. No, they fuck their fans. Both of these teams fuck their fans consistently. Oh, we got to. Hold on. We got breaking news here. Jake the Snake coming in saying we got two Monday night games. We got the Bucks with Baker Mayfield playing the Texans with the lower line.

And then we got another rivalry with the Chargers and Raiders. By the way. I got to be honest to you, the Buccaneers and the Texans, like, that's like they play in the DMZ of football for me. I don't know anything about the NFC South. I don't know what's going on down there. they got your boy baker you know what i know about the the houston texans paul wall is from houston paul wall megan the stallion um i'm going to tell you what you called it last year you were right we both called it but we know jim harbaugh in his second year he got a big win

against the chiefs justin herbert looked amazing you know you know i love justin herbert i mean you know i think i can't stay healthy paul I like the Chargers. I do, too. Take the Chargers money line. We own the Raiders. Oh. That's got me a leg.

Look at Jake, the snake coming in. Whoa. What do you do? Oh, look at it. He shoots him in a foot. He tells him to go fuck yourself. Good on you. Good on you, Jake.

Don't take no shit off, nobody. All right. Tom Brady, you're going to take that? What's the world coming to? He's not playing. He's not playing. I was fucking joking with you. I was fucking joking with you.

How do I know you're joking? What are you, maniac? You're going to go, you're going to go pick against the guy? What are you? What are you? Some kind of thing?

Maniac? Like, it's a hell of a maniac. All right. Jake the snake just made the pick of the game. We're going to take, we're going to take the Chargers money line. The three and a half is a little scary.

I understand the half. Do we just join? Yeah. Wait a minute. Wait a minute. Are we dogs? Who's, no. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

That charges are favored. We'll take the money line. Take Herbert to throw one. Yep. So there's two. How about this? What if we do, can we just do, is this possible to do Chargers money line,

Herbert to throw two? And we leave it at that? It's not bad. Or is that too much? Could go Bowers over receiving yards. He's incredible. So, I mean, it's not a bad one for the. Jake, it's your team.

It's your team. And listen, this is your second year. You're not a rookie. anymore you get a say in this that's right well i mean if you want to throw in something from the bucks texans you could do that as well but i mean or just keep it to one game whatever you guys are feeling because it is your money night special and by the way you forgot to mention the last week's money special hit so congrats all that's okay dude we're one for one that's right so we might well jesus christ paul something had to hit for us last week i was just going to say i was just going

to say we didn't have a win in the winning column but we got oh seven to one but we won you fucking some money on Monday we we lost our shirts uh all right well we hit the monday night special i like herbert to throw one chargers to win the game outright and then um and then does anybody have a picture of anybody's girlfriend or wife that's playing quarterback that night so i can help make my decision well justin herbert uh is dating somebody new so that's may i got a couple more calls on Friday. I'm fucking joking. I don't give a shit.

I don't care what they're doing. It's none of my business. Maybe I'm trying to promote it like that. Hey, Bill, maybe Justin Herbert's the new Mahomes. Maybe that's the guy. He's got the new girl. He's got the coach in Harbaugh. Maybe that's where the tide ships start seeing the charges get those calls by the

officials. Who's the who's the who's the who's the running back here? Because I've got to get on with Mike Day. Yeah, yeah. Who's the last, who's the running back, Jake? Both teams have rookie running backs. I'm not too too familiar with both. But the Raiders have a great tight end.

Maybe we could take him over receiving yards or something. What's his total, Andrew? There it is. Actually, it's not on there. I don't know why they're not showing him. What about the first thing you said, Bowers? You want to just do Bowers? Yeah, yeah, that's what I was looking for.

It's not showing it on the screen. But whatever that number is. All right. So then let's just do this. let's just do you want to do Bowers or Herbert to throw two you know what let's keep a herber to throw two

I don't want to report you know what if Herbert throws two it's better odds so we're going to do the charges to win Justin Herbert to throw two touchdown hey listen we're 1 and 0 on the Monday night special so there you go all right there you guys have it Andrew I like that that was outside Paul Verzi that wasn't 0 and 4 Verzi

okay all right you know better than me because I'm still on I'm still shaky No, no, no, I liked it. I liked it. You got your swaggerback. I like it. Yeah, he said, don't mess around with the Rangers. Just stick with the charges.

I have Cincinnati, Detroit, Pittsburgh, and Kansas City. And Bill, you have the Jets. I got the Jets. I got the Dolphins. I got the Browns. I got problems, Paul. And who else you would I take? there was another
