Oh, hey, buddies. How we doing? Welcome to the show. It is another week. It's another Monday. It is Barn Burner. And look at everybody's, uh, everyone's back together again. He's alive.

He's made it. He's a Ryan Pinder. Fellas. How are we doing? Oh, we're good. How are you doing? Very good. I had a big sleep yesterday.

Hadn't had a lot of sleep for a while. Had a big snoozer. Big Zapper. The European vacation. Oh. They got to figure it out, Rhett. aside from the incredibly small portions of food and tiny rooms and tiny beds and tiny everything probably the tiny food's probably okay yeah there's no obese people there there was quite fit

right like portion size is a little different than all the custom to order espresso right but uh yeah good vibes over there i don't know that it's forever but it's a fun little visit isn't it well uh so i you know when you think about it so could you be Parisian. Could you, you, what do you say, it's there for a little while,

but you, what's, what's, well, Parisian's Paris. So it wasn't Paris. Where were you? Went to Copenhagen and then there's a quick visit to Sweden and then

spent a lot of time in Italy at the end. Oh, okay. So, a Roman, don't speak Italian. Gladiator? Definitely not that.

Rets would be the closest to Gladiator. Boom, you'd like the food. I'd tell you. Yeah, I'd like the food. Yeah. Yeah.

Concerned about these portion sizes you're talking about, though. There's nothing worse than finishing and still being hungry. I think if you grew up with it, you'd probably be okay. Yeah, probably be all right. Mixing a few more. Like, definitely, like, you need that nightcap at 11 p.m. in the square. Maybe you can get it. Yeah.

And you can get good. Oh, really good. Like what? Like a real meal. Yeah, like not just like, hey, what drive-thru window is open? It's 1130, but like the full kitchen. everyone's out there socializing. It's,

I hate that too. They nap. They do nap. Great nappers. Seastas. I love the siesta's. Well, siesta's not.

Europeans have seestas? That's exactly. Yeah, that's the Spanish. Well, I just, what I think of Cesta, I think of,

yes, I think of Spanish. I think more of Mexico. Okay. Hot weather. If you go to Spain. It's too fucking hot to work in the middle of the afternoon.

Yeah. So you take a nap. I didn't know that Italy was renowned for its midday heat. Yeah, it would be. Where the siesta came from. Like, if you go to Barcelona and you go to. Barthana. Barcelona, they might be in 11 and 2.

Sorry, we're closed. Everyone go lie in the beach, swim, have a little cat nap, whatever it is. And we'll see in the afternoon. Well, I like that. Yeah. Yeah, I can do that. So lots of carbs, lots of carbs and sleep.

I wonder if that's more what it's got to do with than the midday heat. It's just Jesus Christ, I had this massive bowl of spaghetti. But they don't have a massive bowl. That's just it. It's not a, you don't go, even if they have a pasta. It's not. I'd have no places. I'd have them trained.

Hey, how you doing? Give me a, give me the boomer, boomer order. That'd be great. Bougar team. Yeah. Four orders of lasagna? Okay, fair. Coming on.

Welcome to the Tower Chrysor Studios. Tower Chrysler, Consumer Choice Award winner voted Calgary's favorite Crizzan, Dodge Dealer, 10-901 McLeod Trail South, TowerCryser.com. Good to have everybody along here on another week. Hockey season has arrived. We had Flames hockey last night. Meaningful. Very meaningful flames.

Yeah. Big, big game, big, big win. A lot of takeaways. I mean, there's a couple, I suppose. A couple takeaways, for sure. 10-0. The flames defeat, squeak by, much like the Miami Dolphins, squeak by yesterday over the Vancouver Canucks rookies.

Now, take a look at the roster, because here is the rosters for the game. And upon first, you know, okay, so you know Calgary is going to have a better lineup. Yeah, the home team, right? It's a home team. You're going to, for your home fans, you always put in a little more. So it's okay. Markstrom, Anderson, Tanev, Hannev. Hanofan, Huberdo,

Sharon Govich, Lindholm, Jubei, Coronado. Okay, so Nazum-Kodry, there's some everyday NHLers here, and on the other side, what are we looking at? Kuzmenko, you had a good year. Hoglander, he's a NHeller.

Todd Colson? Yeah. Pia Souter. I mean, it's, pews. You kind of got a squint to find. Yeah, special back in there, you know. You know? So things were looking, things were looking up.

Do you see it, you see it there, retro? I hadn't seen him because my eyes are terrible, but. Yeah, no, that's all right. So I think I don't know what the Vegas line, the Betway. Yeah, minus a bit on this. A billion, probably. Yeah. Let's take a look at what happened.

We can get into it. Two of home we go. We'll pick things up here at, let's call it two to nothing. It's already, that's already, And that Coronado is already scored. We've got two on the board. On to the power play, special teams, a big part of the game.

A big part of the game. Watch Huberdao with the drag and zip. That's silky. Great, nice. He's smiling. He's got a smile back, boys. Three nothing flames. Down in the corner.

That's a pretty goal right there. You only see the one angle, but he does a little, that's nas and Kadri, a little spin backhand. Ping, far down. Now it's five nothing. Five. Look at this atrocious giveaway, Rhett. This is a turnover. Oh, it's that bad.

Coronado says thanks for his second of the game. Puckin' deep. Grasn was Anderson in front. Comes back to Noah Hannepin. Ripper. Ah, she's a ripper. Just out for a rip, are you, bud? Yeah.

7-0. Back to the power. play to the third. Look at Rosie. Dangling. It's your boy, Rachel. Cross-mouth. Zeri, who scores on a rebound. Fans are chanting, we want 10.

Greedy. Just under eight to go back to the power play. You'll see it expires, but still flames with the pressure. Coronado, Zing. That is a Zing right there. Goal scorer's goal, makes a 10-0, his third of the game. Flames went by a score of 10. Nothing. So there's a difference between

the NHL and other leagues? Yeah, I was going to say if I think this does answer the question what would happen if an NHL team had to play like I don't know an American league team because we not even a fully stocked NHL no like half an NHL squad luckily I believe there's somewhere in the neighborhood of seven more of those to come I think there's hopefully only five more to be fair dean because I would like to see NHL against NHL and I think the last couple we tend to but yeah I don't know what your takeaways should be here if you're a Canucks fan because The HL guys looked like HL guys. You know what your takeaway is for the Vancouver? No regulars got hurt. Yeah. No injuries, no regulars got hurt.

Kids played. I mean, how different is that from the rookie team that took the ice last week in Penticton? It's going to be some similar names. There's a little bit. So I don't know. I mean, I know what it is. You got to have. The Canucks.

The Dawket was there. He had an interesting quote post game while we've got for later. Because I know that veterans. don't want to play these games. Certainly you don't want to travel to play these games. And you have to have, they have regulations or at least stipulations, whatever you want to call it, X number of NHL games experience you need to have. You can't just send a bunch of ECHLers in there. It's the National Hockey League. But to your point, who learned anything last night? Or is it even an evaluation tool? Is it just for getting guys back in the ice for game one of a

preseason? Yeah, I think, look, the result you expected is the one you got. The team with the NHL players beat the one without very many NHL players. So any sort of takeaways have to be with a huge grain of salt and people trying to comment on the style of play and things like that. I just think you're insane. You can't. But if you are going to put a team of NHLers out against a team of not many NHLers, you'd hope they'd show well.

And the guys that were most curious about are the guys that haven't played a lot of NHL games. Like Matt Coronado's got what? One, we were at Game 82 last year, fellas, against the sharks. That was his debut. You saw he could shoot it there. You see last night. he hasn't forgot how to shoot it.

And in fact, you could probably shoot it maybe better than most guys on this team, I'd argue at this point. But beyond that, what are we really doing? Unless you're going to measure the few non-NHLers on this roster. Like if you're Ben Jones, that's a good night. My takeaway is if you saw them, if you didn't get that performance, we'd be, oh, yeah, it was 3-2 here. That's not good.

That's not great. I don't think you expect 10 even. No. Oh, no. Dominate. You would have said, well, geez, Matthew Coronado. You would have liked to have seen him. Well, okay, he did.

He scored more last night than he did in Penticton. So I don't know what to make of that. But I like what I saw from Coronado with the heaviest and largest of grains of salt. That's right. Because we would have. We'd have been critical. People would have been critical anyway. I guess one other thing that came up, a goal, Austerly, your buddy.

scored a goal last night. We didn't get into it last week, but Oliver Shillington is once again away from the hockey club. Personal reasons. They are not going into any kind of detail as to what that is. No good on all levels.

Not good for the player, not good for his life, which is first and foremost, not good for his career, and not good for the team. It's great for, rosterly or whoever might come up the depth chart, but it does make you, it makes you wonder. He missed the entire season a year ago.

Yeah, what are we looking at here? We don't know. Came back and was part of the off ice train or the fitness testing. And the next day he was gone. So. Yeah, we don't know what that means, right? This is the challenge is they say it's a personal matter. We're not going to comment anymore.

It's like, okay. Well, so what we know is nothing. You know, does he need two weeks? is he done for the year? Do they even know these things? I mean, there's not a lot that we can say here so much as there's a lot we can ask that we don't want the answers to. None of my business.

I was going to say, and when you were asked the team two weeks, two months, I bet the player doesn't know, right? I'm your own business. Yeah. The only thing I, the only question I have is how it impacts if he does come back and when and all, like there are technical. Yeah, there's capital. implications that play into it.

So you have to understand that. There's this side of things. But aside from that, the best thing the flames can do right now is say, you call us whenever you feel like this is. And understanding that we don't know any timelines and that he could return the theory today or any other day or never at all. Are you concerned if you're the Calvary Flames that your 6'7 are australi and Dennis Gilbert?

or is that pretty much exactly where those guys should be slotting? I don't think, I know anytime we watched Gilbert last year, we're like, okay, is he the most talented defense on the ice? Absolutely not. Is he giving you everything he got? Does he add some physicality? Does this guy play with Moxie? Yeah, do you like him in?

I kind of do. Fought again last night, if I'm correct. And like, if he and Austerly are going to be your six, like, or alternate or there's your six, seven, I think you can live with that. And maybe you don't have to, but I feel like, this is a very different situation than if this was like Vancouver's blue line losing Quinn Hughes, right?

This is a deep group to begin with and they've got guys that can come in to be a six. And we all came into this year saying, look, if Shillington's back, you know, let's make sure there's measured expectations. He had one really good year with TANF. And prior to that, he was a six, seven type guy. I think you're, I think you're looking at it through a certain lens. I think, I think that's fair. They have guys that can be a top six.

I don't think coming in, anyone looked at Chillington as being top six. He was a top four guy. There were expectations. There was a lot of hope for him coming back. Certainly, fast forward, whatever, rewind like a year and a half ago.

You were not thinking that he was going to miss a year. He was a big part of this team moving forward. Yeah. His evolution two years ago was on this world. And the type of game he plays. Totally. The fit with Tanev. That's sad.

I mean, he's definitely not better than. Anderson, Hanofan, Uyghur, Tanov and put Sadorov out there. I mean, he's your fifth or sixth best defenseman if he were... You weren't saying that two years ago.

With Tanev, it was like, okay, that's interesting because you could play in bigger minutes than you probably want to play Sadorov, but all the others are better players than him. No way. You weren't saying that. You weren't saying that, though. I mean, we still make fun of Sadorov.

Schillington had an amazing year that year. It was kind of out of nowhere to me. No, I didn't see it coming. He was going to be scheduled in as a top four for sure. Well, then I don't disagree, but who's in your third pair then? Because you got, I think you got five top fours if Shillington's a top four. If Shillington doesn't miss last year, the whole, everything might be completely different. It's impossible to, do you know what I mean?

I don't know. You might have dumped the guy. It's very possible, right? Like, I don't even know what his contract status was. Would he have been, if he put up 50 points last year, was it going to be up for another contract? And what, like, I don't even know because it's, it's his own deal. And if we're not welcome to be given the information, that's fine. I'm not asking for it.

But a year, two years ago, after the season he had, he was definitely projected in a top four role for this squad. Yeah. And I look at it, like you say, why he's not here, just remove that from the equation. It's now the team having one less guy, that guy, probably fortunate that a Haniff and deal didn't get done or whatever. I mean, if you want to look at it that way, If your focus is on this year and how this team is going to do this year,

it's probably good. You've got the bodies that you do. They're deep down. Yeah. So it's unfortunate. They're deep till now. With everyone healthy, before a game has been played, they're in good shape. Yeah.

Yeah. No, you're right. If you lose a Uighur, or I guess realistically, when you lose Canoev, not then it's like, okay, now who's playing top four minutes that we're not comfy with. Yeah. Gilbert, as you mentioned there, Ryan, he got hurt, or he fought, but then got hurt. He got dumped into the end boards or into the boards. Anyway, it smacked the back of his head.

Huska has made the comment afterwards. He wouldn't be playing today or tomorrow, but he's okay. He is listed on a lineup today, but I also think that he won't play to your and the coaches. What's the deal with the extra players? In terms of when cuts are made? No, on those lineups, there's too many players. You can't. It's 20 players.

I think that's exactly that. They're bringing lots of guys to Seattle here and then it gives them flexibility to play who they want. I imagine, I'm just guessing, but in the preseason they probably have more leeway for like lists some guys. You're Oakland. You can dress so many, but whatever.

You got like, what, 50 guys around some of these teams right now? Yeah. They have the, you mentioned Seattle. They got the split squad here today against the Cracken. Then a day off and then they got what, the Jets and the Oilers? Four in six or whatever you want to call it? and six, but it's, uh, they got a lot of hockey here. Then Saturday, Sunday away from the rink, I would expect the big swath of cuts.

Yeah. To come. Then maybe even some junior guys get sent this week. I'm not sure what, uh, if they ain't making it, let them go. Let them go. Get them a little taste. Maybe get them in one preseason game tonight's that night. You got two teams playing for the flames, one in Calvary, one in Seattle.

Like that's get your guys the little taste. And if they ain't ready, get them out of here. One game, preseason, all we can do is read in, but the top line, Lindholm, centering Hubertoe and Sharon Govich. Do we expect that, say, line opening night? I would. I think when you look at the success that Hubertos had and the types of players has been around, Sharon Govich and DeClaer, he's probably your most similar player to him, plays with great pace,

can shoot it. Don't think he's going to while you with hockey IQ, but if he gets open and hustles, you're going to like them. What's going on at your house? What do you mean? There's a lot of noise here. There's some construction in the back. Is that what you're doing?

What's going on over there? Building one of those above ground pools? What's all the noise about? Shuffler, what the hell are you doing? What is she doing? There's a lot of people out of room. Every time I start doing the show, there's a whole bunch of banging going on back.

we're getting some work done to the studio over here can you your studio like at home studio yeah that's right so like you're never leaving your house again no so i told you he went to mexico and it was like he got out of his house like that's he's hit his quota for 2023 this this mf er ain't leaving until the new year the time and money that i'm saving by just staying home all the time is unbelievable these gas prices are astronomical. I take your work. Gas prices.

I've run the, I haven't run the furnace all summer. What are you talking about? Barbecue's working fine. Barbecue's fine. TV still seems to work. It's Rob Ray over. Hey, come on now.

Come on now. Just do it. Practice plan, guys. Come on. This is White. How is Razor? Give us a Razor update. It's back to work.

We were at P. for the kids hockey and then he drove home Saturday night. Get this one, Pinder. Tournaments here. Thursday, Friday, Saturday. It's a lot of school days in there. Right? Like, they don't even care.

Neither do I. But they certainly don't. I do sort of look through the lens of like kid sports through the like, what would like two normal parents with nine to five jobs? Like how would they do this? And when we aren't those people and, you know, luckily we have very odd hour jobs, especially at the old shop when we were up at a million in the morning. And, Rhett, like, you're good.

You don't run into the mill to do an eight-hour shift after the show today. But how would a normal family do, you know, any of the kids' sports? I have no idea. Like, my think of my sister, the bulletproofers, like, oh, so you're taking off Thursday and Friday from your jobs and taking your kids to wherever. Rich I don't get it. Pittsburgh. No. I don't, I can't even.

Anyway. We are on the precipice of a very dangerous turn of events at our household. Oh. The twins. They're splitting them up. We finally a couple days. They have been skating in separate groups for three skates in a row. This is catastrophic.

Man, do not allow that. You got to be. You got to get down there right now. I got to be the squeaky wheel. Is that what's happening? Yes. There's still a chance they can be on the same team, but it definitely isn't your high probability outcome.

Either that or I mean, because you got two kids. You can make the one better or you can bring the other one back down. Have a nice little X-Lax pre-game snack here, buddy. Oh, you can't, oh. Skates are done. The skates are done. The final decisions are being made. The next communication will be, here's your team snap login.

Here's to go look. This would be pinned. Hi. Head of evaluation. Just please, I have two sons. They are in different groups. We really need them to be together because we just cannot, we won't be able to afford it. It's going to be just too much money for us to split.

Where am I right now? Yeah, sir. I'm in Rome. I'm wobbly here. Just hang on. I lost you there for a second. The Amalfi Coast. Sorry, the cell service is really bad here in Portugal.

To be fair, like it doesn't cost any different amount of money from those separate teams. It's just that now we're like a normal, man. We've lost our fuel costs. Over the course of a winner, separate practices, separate events, separate games.

Yeah, hotels, what do we got today? Today's Saturday. Okay, we got a boy number one. Where is he? Oh,

Erdry. Okay, boy number two, where is he? Oh, Okotokes. Shit. Okotokes. Hmm.

Ah. But you're right about the time. I was looking, my kid, at least once a week has a fourth, 30 practice in DeWinton, which is Okotopes essentially.

Yeah. When is school over? Yeah, that's a tight little circuit to run there. Never mind if a job went until 5 p.m. Yeah, I don't know. I don't know. Kids sports. Stupid.

You got to beg and plead. Keep them on the same school. Yeah, you need to. Do not underestimate. I don't want to be that Richard. God damn it. You know what? That's not a Richard move.

they're kids. Yes. Yeah, that's true. You're not lobbying for one kid to make AAA or else. It's like, listen, they're kids. Put them on the same team. The ones on the bubble too. Like it's that I just, but I can tell you right now, kids, kids that are eight and on the bubble, there's, they go either way, right? Like, they're on the bubble. That's a personal interpretation. It's not a, this guy's definitely better. So we got to have him on the team.

That makes it better. That makes it easier. If you're a bubble, kid, then you can slide them one way or the other to... I'm hoping. We'll see. Don't hope. Hope will get you effed. Although for the purposes of this show and the entertainment, I know, taking pleasure in your misery,

maybe just sit on it. See how it works. You know, you gotta let these things play himself. You got to let these things play out. They've got a great system evaluating eight-year-old hockey. It's very scientific. Oh, it's really good.

Yeah. There hasn't been any talk about that the last three weeks. Yeah. Like they don't, they never made. It hasn't been a mistake ever. So just trust the process. But right at the very beginning, they're eight.

Oh, yeah, it's you nine here. Come on. It's not to take this too seriously. We are into the month of September. We got a new. What? We got a new one. Just eight.

Once. Are we September? Hey, White Rabbit? White rabbit? Hey, shut up, fuckos. We're into the month of December, which means, They have made the switch at Century Downs Casino and Racetrack to the Thuribreds.

That's what I'm telling you. All right. Shitheads. Because they go to the Thuribreds. Now nothing, I don't know what? Everything else is fine. You know, they've got the wagons and they're doing their thing. Thuribred racing season at Century Downs Race Track.

Oh, baby. Every Saturday and Sunday at Century Downs Racetrack, 1245 p.m. just after lunch. Post time. Something like nothing. 1245. Admission is free. All ages are welcome.

You can watch, have some food, have some drinks with your friends, maybe in a little wager, if that's your sort of thing. Coming up on Saturday, it is Barnburner Day at the racetrack. We're going to be at Century Downs Race Track. Getting ready.

If you've never done it, there's nothing else like it. And all it takes is maybe a buck or two. You put it on a horse. Then all of a sudden, you're at the rail with your line up with your car. Come on, you son. Craver. Have you got a lot riding on this?

Yes, $2. I got $2 on the five horse. That's going to be this Saturday. They've even got a barn burner heat on the card. Come on Saturday. Are you serious? Yes. That's so unreal.

I'm excited about it. So you see. said post time is 1245. Well, 45. Get there early. Have a drink. Have some food. Get set up.

Get your figure out. And you start, hey, what have you heard about pot liquor? Is pot liquor any good? Potlicker in the third. Is that, oh, I've heard good things. Her mother, what is a mutter? Father's a mother. That's going to be this Saturday.

All right. September 30th, Century Downs Race Track and Casino. Post time is 1245. We'll be there hanging out, having some drinks, picking winners. holler and screaming, yelling, all that sort of thing. So this is very cool. I'm glad that this worked out because this is another one of those unique events

that you can't do in a lot of cities that you can't do year out. It's very cool. So we're going to be there on Saturday. Love the thoroughbreds. Get your wallet out. Five was my horse too, Dean. The five horse?

Yeah. First time ever. 100 bucks down. How many? you would have known some players that would have got on to that a bit that's a like i've got too much money i don't know what to do with the type thing start owning horses and stuff like that kujo's big in the coo joe did you ever get close to getting sucked into no i was never came across as sophisticated smart yeah yeah i was sophisticated and smart

that's the one right yeah that's the one eddie olchick's big into horse yeah he is yeah he'll he handicaps the derby and stuff and people love it he's great um i feel like if you know this huge success that Barnburner is. Like we're just going to have these millions of dollars hanging around all this extra cash. We should get a thoroughbred going that we can run in some of these heats. We got the barn burner heat.

Now we just need like the shoveler or Major swass. Major swath. Yeah. All these horses. Let's go. Let's get a stable going here. Yeah, let's do it. You don't hear a lot of rags to riches stories in the horse racing world, right? this kid grew up in the streets of Brooklyn.

That's the jockeys. Those are the regs to riches stories. This 5 foot 4 and 98 pound Peruvian. That's your regs to riches. It's not the owners. Tre Living has one of his daughters. It's not in racing. I forget what it.

Yeah. Some would. Oh, no. It's a roping thing because she competed at stampede. There's Western. There's a question. And there's racing. Yeah.

Western probably. Yeah. And she. competed at the stampede this year. And I had said to him, like, well, it's money well spent, seeing your daughter achieve a dream. He's like, no, it's not, it's not, not, there's no chance. It's all worth it. I can tell you exactly how much it's been. And it's absolutely not worth it. I'm happy she's happy, but this is a terrible investment. I think her team won a little bit of prize on it. You'd say, yeah, yeah, that's nice. Like, not even close. It's not. This is where,

we're very much up. Missing zeros. Uh, boomer, we're watching the racist. Um, uh, uh, boomer. You'll be watching the races. Well, you can. You can go online, right? You can go online. Wow. A little off track. Yeah.

But we've got that boomer hologram. We're going to wheel out on Saturday. And since he does like the Tupac concerted. Yeah. Ozzy Brad, there's a horse I'd bet on. Yeah. Did you, uh, it's coming up.

Yeah. Okay. Yep. Let's do the Pinder report. Oh, really? But just one moment really quickly. You don't mind. Well, kind of just glossed right over that there's,

all that banging and thumping and scratching. Do you want to give us more details on what the hell's happening in your studio that you elected to work from? That's a good point, Bender. I would like to think. Yeah, let's hear about this. Lost right over. This is one of our houses. Boone would be all over us up and down.

You know a podcast, what the hell's going on? You thought it would be a good idea to do this, Rhett. Imagine how he does a scripting torn off you today. Let's have it, Dean. Listen,

there's nothing going on. It's quiet. So it was the shoveler? Yeah. Damn razor. No, we're doing some shingles, eh? Oh, above you. Up on the roof.

Up on the roof top, click, click, click. Down through the chimney with old saint rat. Rats nuts, roasted. We're close to that season. 25 with three months. Because it's my middle guy's birthday. Oh! Day birthday, buddy boy, Billy Bob.

That a boy, middle guy. Billy, Bob. Three months till Christmas. My goodness gracious. Come on Vinanova. Oh, is that going to work for him? It's Billy Bob, love. Labgrown diamonds.

Yes. He's going to bling out like some Latin American pitcher for the Mets, just diamonds all over the necklace. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah, no, getting this. And I can hear it until I'm overdue. Oh, you pushed it off.

Yeah. Wait until shit hit the fan. Oh, yeah. It's like, I think it'll be some pottyak Silver Dome situation here. The roof will just frigging cave in if we get too much snow this winter. Honey, we're moving. Yeah. God damn it.

It's awfully cold in here. Yeah, the roof fell in. When you say something got put off. That's something because the toilet you had noted you just switched this summer. Your illustrious toilet vacation. And that was installed when the house was built. So the shingles were put off for a while. That's, ooh.

Yeah, not ideal. And this is another one of those things where you spend a lot of money to get back to exactly the point before it started. Oh, it's the house must be so much, it's just life so much better with the shingles, right? Yeah. Food tastes better. When you go to sell it, it's going to be worth like way more. Huge dollars. Yeah.

Just tear this thing down. take the toilet out other than the master, though. And take the shingles back off. Yeah, take the shingles back off. Let's do the Pitta report of presentation of Village Honda. New in-stock inventory on the ground.

Start your automotive adventures at Village Honda. New vehicle pricing is MSRP. Every time I see something, because we're getting close to that F1 race. Do we know is Anthony going to Vegas for the F1? He's got to be going, right? I need to check in. I have not chatted with him.

There's been a lot of, at least about F1, a lot of conversation about cavalry, and we'll get to that in a moment. But that was been talked about six months ago. We need an update. They've been doing a bunch of stuff in Vegas. I forget what. It's the world's longest.

I think it's track lighting or something because it's all the way down the strip. Yeah. From like MGM all the way to like the wind or whatever it is. Crazy. Not everyone apparently loving it. It's a bit of a inconvenience for a lot of people who are trying to live their lives in Vegas. Yeah. Somehow I feel like the billionaires that own the casino

are okay with it because I've seen what they're charging for rooms for F1. My Lord. Oh, this package is only $250,000 American. Double occupancy. What? It's so good, though. I would love to go.

It's Vegas, man. Do you want a normal commute and no traffic and no tourists? Get the hell out of Vegas. Probably the wrong place, yeah. Where do the Golden Knights guys live? Some of them? Are they out west? Yeah, what is Summerlund or whatever.

Summerland is where they live in Henderson's where the farm team is. Yeah. Yeah, that's nice out there. Practice facility there, yeah. No tax. No doctors. That's hard to find a doctor. That's that right.

A team doctor. Unlike here. Yeah, there's Dr. Red checks in every day. Just walk in wherever. Village Honda, Northwest Automall, your dealership for life. They're online at villagehontah.com and they bring you the Pinder report. Fellas, we start with the Calgary Flames, who opened their preseason slate last night with a particularly veterany is that an adjective, veterinary type lineup.

There it was, as posted by our friends on the social team here at Flames Nation. That looks like your top line. That looks like two thirds of your second line. And that definitely is three of your four best defensemen. Interesting. Okay. Also, marks from your number one goal. I made it better have been.

Geez, that many regulars. Let's check in. Now we looked at a little earlier. Here's your update. At one point, they were chanting, we want 10. in the Saddle Dome. And yes, Matthew Coronado did indeed supply his third goal of the game, which made it a nice round double digits, 10 for the home side.

They would allow zero. That's 10 to zero. Hey, that, if you need to work out any goal songs or the fireball machine or the, what are we going to do after the home team scores, a lot of reps last night, Dino, to get to iron out any kinks there. Yeah, that's preseason for everybody. The goalhorn guy was Beasley ripping out. Beasley was there?

Yeah. Yeah, it's preseason for everybody. I turned it on. Poor Beezer couldn't finish reading out who scored the goal before there's another one in there. Jace. Get it together. Preseason for everyone. Let's go Bees.

Love Bees. Figure it out. So yes, indeed, it was Coronado with the Hattrick that led the way. And our boy, Bob Kerr. Bob. This to say, Bobby, don't care about the hat trick. Don't care about the opposition. Don't care about how early it is in preseason.

Coronado has an elite shot slash release. don't think this is going to be a hot take that's going to get a lot of traction so much as everyone nodding and saying, yep, that's the one thing about this guy that's always made him unique. He's always been able to score. He's always made able to shoot it. How is it going to play up? Well, it's playing up just fine in NHL preseason. I thought it was a little slow. Okay.

Not he didn't get it off. I think regular season guys will be on them. Well, he still will be facing better D-Men in the regular season. You're not going to dispute that. That Kuber lineup, hoof. Make the power play a little better, you know? just baby steps. Right shot and a guy that can beat a goal at distance in theory.

There have been very few of both of those things in Calgary over the last, I don't know, since Jerome left. So I'm not. Biggie? Yeah, I think so. Yeah. You know the guy, right? You text you back sometimes sometimes.

Yeah. I lost your number. Here was Rick Talk and head coach of the Canucks after the 10-0 loss. I feel like Sean Payton. The head coach of the Broncos who allowed 70 yesterday. I'll tell you what, Rick. A, I mean, stakes aren't as high as Sean Payton. And B, yeah, you basically took the Abby Canucks to Calgary.

So don't worry about it, but, but good, good bonus points for the line. That would have got some laughs, I'm guessing. It's a good line. Good line. But if you missed that day and if you weren't an. NFL fan. You'd be like, oh, yeah, I guess. There's a Rick Tocke. It likes NFL joke somewhere in there, but we'll leave that alone. Here's your lineups for tonight.

Split Squad games, veteran heavy in Calgary. A lot of young guys going to Seattle. As we talked about earlier, there's a minimum number of NHL games you need to know. This is a lot of the other NHLers that didn't play last night. There's Michael Backland, Sharon Govich, again, back-to-back nights for him at home. Blake Coleman gets his first game.

Hello, Jacob Peltje, Clapka, Zeri, and Jones are back in again. again. And the very bottom might be tough to see there. Manjapani will make his preseason debut as he, of course, said that offseason shoulder surgery that clearly is the only reason he didn't score 35 goals again. Sorry, what did you say there, Dino? I said, not a bad day.

Not a bad day, Bishop. Nikita Zedorov, he's in. Dennis Gilbert is listed, but it sounds like he won't play after going heavily into the boards. Weiger gets his debut, I believe. he was one of the tough four that didn't play last night and Hannafin back in after that 93 mile an hour. Zing! Goal that you showed in the highlight.

Good? In gameplay, yeah. I think if you're for the hardest shot competition, that's not good. In the game, I love it, yeah. Okay. Yeah. I think I shot 93 once. Whoa.

Golf course? No, the hardest shot competition, which is my competition. It is for sure. Yeah, they sometimes just call it the Rett Warner competition. Here's your goalie tonight. I'm going to start tonight. That was your HL tandem last year. Could be this year.

Although if Dustin Wolf wanted to make things really, really, really hard for Craig Conroy and Ryan Husky, I think we'd all like it, guys. And La Barbara and Sigolette and rest of that crew. Why don't you just go be the best goal in camp, Dustin, make things really tough? Isn't that, oh, what a problem. What a tough problem to happen. Let's see this team have that problem, please. Well, how do you beat zero goalie? goals last night.

You got to have to make more than 20 saves. You're going to have to, yeah. And this is at home. So again, it'll be a very green Seattle team. As for the team heading to Seattle, that'll be the young Flames half of the split squad matchup. And yeah, she's pretty young. Vladar is the goalie you've heard of.

On the back end, Austerley's going to trial. Carter Murphy? Gards boy? I don't know. Larry's boy? Eddie's boy? Not Eddie's boy. That was good.

I like that one. That's good, right? Yeah, very good, you know. Up front, dry nut goes after playing last night here in Calgary. He had the forced the incredibly horrendous turnover that led to coroner second goal. Gube is going to travel. H.O. that's Brett Sutterer is going to go.

I don't want to interrupt you, but did you just say he created that turnover? He was close. If you wanted to give credit to anyone, like he somehow got an assist on it. I mean, it was just an incredibly awful play by the Vancouver defense. It was off a stick. It was a fork check. He kind of, he was skating towards someone. He was pressuring, but really it was just an awful play by the event.

Intense pressure. Intense pressure. Yeah. What is of note is their first two rounders, Moran and Hansek will travel to play. They're from last summer's draft class in Nashville. Rizchka goes again. He played last night here.

And, yeah, they just signed Parker Bell. He's there on the road as well. Okay, sure. It's a young. It's a green team. If they win 10, nothing, I'll be more. That's what we saw last night. Go flames.

Can AI help you live longer? That's the email that I just go. I was just saying, yeah, you've now gone down a rabbit hole. They're not paying attention. A couple notes from the game, Eric Francis, just weeks after saying Rasmus Anderson's likely getting me the next captain is now saying it's going to be Michael Backland.

If he signs, I tell you, you give him two or three more cuts. He's going to nail this. If he gets five picks of captain, Francis had it first. He's going to have like a 20, 25%. chance of giving it right this is like ret when we get to like NFL or serve to our

NHL playoff predictions I got I really think Boston's gonna win but I tell you what this is Toronto's year you're like did he just pick both fucking teams again I got screwed over last week with my picks of the NFL again pender I said at the start of the year I got two picks standing picks for the year the bills yeah and DAC attack and the Cowboys and they didn't give me my Cowboys pick and they screwed me over we set the text out NFL Picks, Rhett sent in three picks, Bills, Ravens, Browns, or whatever it was. And he went one for two and then said, he screwed me. I did.

Well, all fingers and no thumbs. We'll let you have the Cowboys this week. Oh, hope you didn't have them yesterday. I'm glad you didn't. 10.5. What was the line on that one? 13. 13. And they lost to maybe the worst team of the NFL, although I think Chicago is making a strong

case. Arizona is brutal. Arizona is trying. Yeah. To be bad. Yeah. And Chicago's trying to be good, but might be worse. Early handicapping for first overall,

and a full pick probably somewhere starts around there. The note, just to follow up on Francis with conversations ongoing with Michael Backland about an extension, what that looks like dollar or term-wise, I have no idea. And could it be an absolutely crippling signing for the cap and age of this club? Yes. Could it be a value deal on a short term where you're still getting good hockey. It could also be that. No idea.

but if he's inked, my thought all offseason has been, he is your captain. All the players have basically said it. If he's not inked, I just don't think he could do it because you're probably shopping this guy at the deadline if things don't go well. So what's the number you're okay with?

I don't even know. I was thinking if it was two years. You're a freaking pundit. You need to have a man. So who would say no to two times four and a quarter? You would. I think two years is too short. I don't think you get it to.

would say no. Sorry, Dean, what did you say? Yeah, I don't think you get him at two. I think it's going to take 35, right? So is he expecting to get signed to 39? Oh, God, this goes into the whole thing. The two years? Two years deal. It could be an awful. It could be great. Three years, I guess. Well, this is the last year of this deal. So if he signed for three, he's your captain for three, if it's a two year deal. So, and look, maybe Michael's like, look, I, I deserve five years. And if that's the case, I think everyone should be firing flares in the street being like, don't do that. What if it's... But this isn't like 30 year old somebody

or 29 year old this guy. Like this is... We're not talking about Max term here. And we are talking about a guy that has played very well till the age, but is going to decline here. We know that. Next question. Yeah.

That was your shitty answer. Terrible. Terrible answer. Two times four and a quarter. Who says no? Terrible answer. I forgot. I knew it was coming.

I knew it was coming. It's right there. Yeah. Coming back. Just raise your hand when you have it. We'll stop. Dean, when I say that, is that crazy? Like, is Michael saying no?

Is that too much money for the flames? Is that a team friendly deal? Is that the type of deal you sign when you're saying, I love Calgary. I want to be captain. I'll take less. Like, what would two times four and a quarter be? Oh, I think if he would sign two times four and a quarter,

the flames would jump at it. Yeah. Okay. To have a centerman who's been around forever, right? He's still, I don't see any way that it's less than three. And it's got, it's close to five. I really, I don't know. My question doesn't make a lot of sense because you're not sure what the flames are going to be.

But my question, my second part to my question was going to be, why doesn't he want to go win? I think. Clearly, he believes he can win here. And to be fair, I think 25 out of 32 teams right now think they can win, maybe more. But I think the more mature 10,000-foot view, I agree with you that this team probably should. didn't think they're contenders, but there's a lot of teams to do this time of year. Well, I know, but if you're a player, because we've seen this before, where guys don't go, Matt Sundin.

What's going on up there? I'm not going to go to wherever to try and win. Okay, well, that's nice. It Fs us in a way as an organization because we can't move you. But why don't you want to win as a player? We talked about it too, though, Retro. It's hard to do, right? you can go and handpick or try and handpick your team and there's you're not going to guarantee yourself but you're going to try and yeah right and in a year he can do that so i know yeah you can resign here too if the season it goes well right like if you think this is a great spot you don't have to sign now yeah you're signing to have a captaincy it sounds like those two things are correlated and i get it but i also it's not ideal is it yeah

that's what it feels like though right all of this that this is an ideal the captaincy yeah i mean because i agree i don't you really want to name a captain and you can't do it to backland and yet we keep hearing from all the players that were in that room last year when they're talking about last season they're like yeah he's the guy well they've been echoing that again room yeah over the last week it's been constantly oh it's back then it's back and and francis i don't want to put words in his mouth, but he kind of, I think, led down the road that there's a really good chance that this

does get done here in the short term. And so then it's the matter, I don't think anyone has a problem if he becomes your captain, if he's got a contract, the question is like, what does that contract look like? And is that a good decision? Are you paying him to be the captain? Right. Keep him or is he giving you a discount to stay

here and be your captain? Because those are two different things. Totally. Yeah. And there's middle ground there too, right? You'd hope that there's enough where Michael doesn't feel like he's leaving tons of money on the table also, but also that the team says, hey, I'd be happy. You can't just politely pay you because we think you deserve to be the captain. I think there should be some middle ground there.

As a fan in an organization, my take would be, please, short, give yourself less. Please take a whole bunch less. And I said it about, who was it? Was somebody in San Jose? Was it Joe? Did he play for a final? year at like a million bucks or something. Yeah.

Yeah. And he may do that, but it's going to be after this deal. Like I could see Michael coming back on one year deals after a two year deal for ever because I think he's aged brilliantly. He's a great skater. But I would just hate to see like a four times five type thing. And just like, oh, you're buying a lot of the back nine there. And you know what to you, I mean, to your question, if it's a two year deal, it's

essentially three because he's got. It's got one. Right. If the flame's already got one. Yeah. So, I mean, if the flames can sign him to a two-year extension, that's three years. And if the captaincy matters, then maybe, like you say, maybe you, maybe three, maybe. Three million.

Oh, he's better than that. But I know what you're saying. It's, you're at that age, like, how long is he going to be like top eight or 10 in Selke voting? It just can't expect it anymore. Wait a minute. I used to argue with you about Gerdano like this. and you're like, you're an idiot foreigner.

He's a freak. He's a freak. He won the Norse at 35. Most guys are out of the league at 35. That was his best season he ever had is 35. He is an absolute outlier. We all agree on that one. Anyway, so that's the captain conversation. Francis got two horses in the race.

He's brilliant. He's a three downs, get him to pick a couple. Really? I love it. Yeah. Wasn't Weiger in the mix, too, at some point? I mean, I thought it was a front. runner in the summer after the world

championships. Yeah. Meet the pants off of some country you'd never heard. Hey, listen, you guys, Eric Francis is my friend. He's my pal too. You hate him. He hates him. He hates you. That is absolutely not true. We disagree entirely on a lot of takes.

We get along great. I love having a beer with the guy. As soon as we get off the show, you start tongue lashing him and calling him names. From the comfort of your basement, you do put me in a lot of precarious positions, Dean. It's not the basement. Let's move. NHL news,

a name you might have forgotten of and a name you might want to remember if you've got a fantasy hockey draft coming up. Here's the latest on one of the greatest American hockey players of all time. From last week in Darren Dregor, Patty Kane continues to rehab in the Toronto area. Needs at least another month.

We know Buffalo has interest. He could help a lot of teams when healthy. This feels like a midseason signing. This feels like I want to see he was good. this feels like I'm going to need some time to get back to close to 100. He was playing on bad hips last year in New York and prior to that Chicago. Interesting guy to throw into the mix with all these pending UFAs. We also hear Stamp Coast and the lightning are squabbling over extension talks there.

All the flames, all the jets. There's a lot of high profile for agents. And then this guy mid-season is just going to be floating around. Hey, it was good. It was good. Because a week or two, they were talking about him going to Detroit. Detroit. Detroit.

Detroit. We've always gone to Buffalo. maybe wants to go to Buffalo. The Stamcoast one is interesting because he came out, Stamcoast did, and it's very much by design. I was a little disappointed that we didn't have any contract talks. I was really expected.

And then Friedman comes out with the Tampa might not be heartbroken if he just leaves at the end of this deal. He said, and for clarification on Friedman's point, he was referencing back in 2016 when he was a free agent and he had what, $11, $12 million on the table in Toronto and Buffalo and Detroit, but he came back to Tampa at eight and a half. Tampa wasn't budget from eight and a half.

And what Elliot was reporting was that back then there was a thought that, you know what, if it's going to take 11, we're happy to not. We're fine leaving him. He did end up coming back for less money to Tampa. So I think things got a little misconstrued on Elliot when he went viral there. But I mean, look, he's older than everyone else there. All these other guys got their huge extensions. he's older than all of them.

He's not Brandon Hagel. He's not Braden Point. He's not Mikkel Sergachev. All these guys are way younger. How much term? You want to talk about Backlin? I was going to say, we have the conversation here

about paying old guys. We look at Tampa Bay, who's got Cups and regard it as one of the best run teams in the NHL. They're like, yeah, you're the captain. You're one of our best players. Yeah, that captain sees. If you wanted to dig into that,

I think he could find some interesting takes. You might. I guess just in terms of the overall, philosophy of running the team that here it's been, well, he's the captain, you have to show him respect, you have to let him call his own shot and in Tampa, it's like at least

so far, we'll see what ends up happening here. He may still get the, that's going to be too much money, that's going to kill them, but I agree with you. And really, if you look at this league, what we've seen is when guys have incredible runs that include multiple cups, they do get overpaid. Like, knocking a Lattang, just got it.

You saw Dowdy and Copa target it. You saw Seabrook Canaan I'll get it. It's changing, isn't it? Well, and I think this is that's why this is interesting, because the easiest thing to do is say, name your number, we owe you, you've done so much for the team.

The hardest thing to do is be Julian Breezebo and say, you have done a lot for us, but guess what? We expect you to decline significantly over the next four years, and we're not paying you for what the history was. That's, that's the difference here. That's a slippery slope too.

So it really is. Just to jump in there. If you're Stephen Stamco's, and you're like, I want to stay in Tampa. I really like it here, being here forever, one cups all that okay and then the gym says okay we can't pay which you want you know what that's okay breeze well i'm gonna i want to stay in temple well okay well i'll take five is he professional enough to play as hard as he can for you know what i mean if he thinks that he's been jipped

out of a bunch of money and just i think you cut bait no matter what if i'm breeze well because i don't want the the the headache of okay well we got a guy that signed here he's not happy about about doing it, but he's taking it because he wants to retire here. It's the, I want to retire in that town scenario. Yeah. And I guess the third option is, hey, I'm worth X. I'm going to go get it somewhere else. That's, that's, I'm saying if you're a reason.

I'll give you a deal or let him walk. And if you're breezeball, it's like, what did Steve Eisman show you? He offered like millions of dollars less to Steve and Samco's and he turned back and came and took the money that they offered, not the bigger money. Hey, listen, we can't pay you. You want 10 or Jeannot money. We can't be paying you 10 or Jeanot money. Exactly.

Come on now. Okay. That's the only other NHL notes we had there. Let's go to the NFL. We hope you've been wagering on Christian McCaffrey to score touchdowns, guys, because if you started with a measly brown bill, you'd have $78,000 today if you just kept rolling your money on Christian McAfrey to score a touchdown every game.

That's 12 in a row. Shout out to Jack for finding that. I think he watched McCaffrey score multiple touchdowns. Jones week one against Pittsburgh. Isn't that right, Jack? Get in the gym, McCaffrey. I ordered. I picked McCaffrey one year and he was horseshit, so I've done nothing. You did get hurt that one year.

Didn't help my team. What have you done for me lately, hey, Ruth? Yeah. Well, touchdowns in 12 straight games. That's it, apparently. Before those 12, no good, Rat. No good. Major League Baseball, the Orioles, they've been quite good. They're going to win the AL East, it appears. They also haven't been swept in

89 series. Longest street since World War II. There's a factoid for you. Had it been swept. A series. That's not days. That's not games. Blue Jays looks like this, fellas. Remember we checked in from a week ago, things were dire. Things are not dire anymore. They have six games left. They go three and three. They're guaranteed a playoff spot. That's good. And they got, what, the Yankees for three? That's also good. Dean, they're a mess right now. They took two or three from the raise, and it took a ninth inning blowup for them not to sweep the raise in the one they did lose.

They've turned it around a bit and maybe the most encouraging thing they've seen. They've been pitching all year. It's Vladdy starting to hit home runs to yesterday as they won the series against the raise. Can you read that text and my brain? I just started, well, what? I'll do this for our listeners. The Blue Jays clinch a wildcard spot with a three and three homestand mark against the Yankees and Rays. that would leave the Jays at 90 and 72.

The reason that mediocre of a mark will get them in because the Mariners, Rangers, and Astros all play each other. Only two of those three teams can reach 90 wins. You probably could have just done the, with the record of three and three, they'll make it. Yes. Chances are they'll make it. We do have to check in on our old pal, belly salt.

He was just sell the team about two weeks ago for the Jays. He said there was zero chance, no chance. No one knows what you're talking about. They were playing terrible. They were. Okay, we move to Bill. That's bad karma, by the way. If you want to talk about it, like, you, that's you inviting bad karma.

I know. That's why I've said nothing in that group chat since that was posted. The cavalry crew continues to win. Dean, check this out. Our boys will officially be top of the table. They've won the regular season. The Canadian Premier League Shield, which does indeed punch their ticket to the Conca Cap Champions League for a red

look at the skipper hey you want to you want to say anything to old Tommy you want winners huh mila coppa winners win five draws in a row to start there he's a lot dress look at that

see when you know you're winning the title you just dress different right yeah that's right now right now ret he borrowed this costume you had this I think it was your brother pulled it out of your house for him

what dress up concert I don't know how he got into that that's amazing I love to play chess. Looks like he's rocking about a, what, 24, 28 inch waist there? Look, that very dry. I'm going to get one of the first. Jesus.

Here's what we keep, now they still have regular season games left and then the playoffs, but securing the regular season title, the president's trophy, if you will, of the CPL. They are entered into this North America and the Caribbean tournament. At the bottom, you'll see Nashville's in. You'll see that. There's a

six Mexican teams are in there as well. Miami FC, Dino. That's Messi and Co. They're in the same. They could draw Messi again. Exciting. What's the date that? You've got to fill out the rest of these.

That's just, we're still collecting teams here. Because if we're five, eight, and six. Because when Messies at Atco Field, I might, I might go. I might leave the basement for them. Just 15 teams remaining of the 27. And once we fill the field, then we'll see the bracket. Then you can see messy. Is it made however they feel like it or is it scientifically?

This is your one of this format. So I think they probably get to make it up as they go and there's nothing published necessarily about how they're going to see these things. Come on. There was a great photo on the weekend. Remember when Messi tried going out for dinner in Argentina and like the millions of people were outside the restaurant. Yeah.

Like on the weekend, he's at the grocery store. pushing his card around. Fucking nobody bothered him. Life's good. Hey, rat, that's like Huberto. We can go get coffee in Miami, no sweat. Calgary, good luck. Yeah.

Maybe to the next degree, but sure. We will move to our kickers. We start with the Buffalo Bills edition of the kickers. There have been men, members of the Bills Mafia, welcoming their sons into the Bills Mafia. Well, if you've seen this, let's have a watch. You have a couple. One's a little longer, but here we go.

All right. I would like to thank you all for attending this joyous occasion as we welcome my son Joshua Ryan Shoot into the Bills Mafia. I would like to start with a blessing. Joshua Ryan Shoot, may you be blessed by Jim Kelly, Bruce Smith, Andre Reed, Thurman Thomas, Steve Tasker, Mark Levy, and all the Bill's grades, so that you may never have to endure the mediocre football that was the Buffalo Bills between 2000 and 2018. names in the name of our Lord and Savior Josh Allen we pray our Macbarramette who art in Buffalo hallowed be thy game thy process come that will be done on land as it is through the air give us this day our weekly win and give us our Joss passes as he stiff arms

those who trespass against us and lead him lead us not into irrelevancy but deliver us to the playoffs and Alan we trust the um the bat blue there that's the blah I like that all around here. It's the baptism. Does the kid drink the blue? This is going to go early if that happens. I baptize you in the name of Stefan Diggs, Von Miller,

Jordan Poyer, and Micah Hyde. Now, by the power vested in me, by the only NFL team in New York, and by our Lord and Savior, Josh Allen, I welcome you in the Bill's Mafia. Jesus Christ.

If there was any question to the level of insanity of Bill's fan, that's just very, you've seen this before, Red, like this happens. In fact, I bet you there's another video just like this of another guy doing the same thing for his kid. There's got to be. Like, I bet you this happens every two. Oh, here we go.

Here's another one. It's a trend. To witness the baptism. the newest member of the Bill's Mafia, Axel John Snyder. May your Labats be cold, your wings extra crispy, in the name of McDermott, Bean, and the Holy Allen, in Marv Levy's name. Amen.

Brett, you got to get in on this, like, baby tables. It's Billy's birthday. Right? Can you do some kind of a table celebration with your boy today? Off the roof. In the Razors pool. Yeah. Well, you know what?

Those kids have a bright future. Proud of those folks. Yeah. Probably. May their Labats be cold. Yeah. Probably future presidents of the United States there. And it's true.

Extra crispy. Yes, good. Chris. We need a vibe check on the bills. They've been pretty seeminglyly dominant since that week one, meh. Where are we at? Vibes. Two bad teams, I guess, you say.

Vives are good. We're still mad about. the Jets thing though. How the hell did he not like, he throws for one touchdown yesterday? The defense had one touchdown. Five, six, no,

they had six sacks, five turnovers and a touchdown. I like the D week one. I told you. I think they're good. You don't think so. I know. I think the D was good.

People were very, they were like eyebrows were raised because Alan slid a couple times. Oh. Mm-hmm. Here. Sure we like it. Do we like it? Yes, but no. Finally, Rhett and the shoveler out for a weekend bike ride, but the problem is you had to rent bikes.

And I think this is one of those ones where it's not a handbrake for the shoveler. You have to, like, pedal backwards. You know how you use that to use the brake? And I think she didn't realize it and took her legs off. This is big trouble. It's a very close look here. Come on. What a world.

If you can't see this, the shoveler didn't know how to access the brakes and narrowly avoided multiple cars. She was hammered and just right over the handlebars. How good she wasn't BMXing and paid the price. So hopefully she's all right. That's your Pinda report. Okay. Brought to you by Village Honda. Huge selection of used vehicles all makes all models, all budgets.

It's over 70 units on site access to more than 400 more in the dealer group. It's your one-stop automotive destination in Calgary. Village Honda, Northwest Automol, your dealership for life. It's Village Honda. How is life in Buffalo? Do you see a lot of those sorts of things happening? It's a little stressful today, Dean, to be honest with you, because of the Finns. I had to cross the border, yes.

I had to cross the border yesterday. And the border guard said, I should send you in for wearing that hat. Oh, what? The Bill's hat? What are you? In New York?

What are you talking about? He goes, yeah, I'm a Finn's fan. So I just drove through. Keep the password. Just I flip the burns, I drove right through the arm. Keep the passport.

Yeah, that's 70, you know, like, they've played well, then dumb dolphins. That's, about that. When do they play each other? That's going to be a hell of a game.

This weekend. Yeah. In Buffalo? Yes. Oh, it's too early. You want the bad weather for those softies. Why don't you guys come down?

We have an event on Saturday. Oh. Yeah, we're at Thurobreds. It'll be good to see you there, right? That's right down. It'd have been nice to know that that was. Yeah. You don't get your emails.

So, you know. Finns won by 50. Yes. Doi. Dolphins 7. College, right? Broncos 20. Well, that's key for the rankings, right?

Because the margin of victory is crucial. So that's very important for the dolphins. First team to score 70 in a game since November of 1966. That was before they had a Super Bowl. Ah, so it's been a while. Before the merger. Team records for points, touchdowns, total yards, rushing yards, second half points.

They had 10 touchdowns. We don't talk about the dolphins on the show. First team in NFL history to put up 350, passing and 350 rushing yards in a single game. So another seven. Four touchdowns for Rahim Mostert. And the other guy ran for 200. A chain.

Well, yeah, two rushing, two receiving. And no Jalen Waddle in the game. Yeah, no Waddle. And the final points, they hit 70 with eight minutes left in the game. Yeah. And could have put another three on the board, but Mike McDaniel said, no, that's not, not looking for bad karma. It's not in the spirit of the game.

And McDaniel, you may not know this. He's a Colorado guy. Check out this picture. At one time, he was the ball boy. Look at that. He was the ball boy for the Denver Broncos. Got the earrings going. Looks like that's boy band guy back in the 90s.

I kind of dig this guy. I don't, he came in last year, had a little bit of swagger in the press conferences. For a guy that's kind of nerdy. kind of cool. Anyway, how did it? Now our boy Alex Singleton was on the wrong end of that. Oh, geez. I drafted the Denver D.

Luckily, I got the hell out of there after Washington hung 30 on them last week. Isn't that terrible? Yeah, that's what I mean. And like, Denver was supposed to be like, well, you know, Russell Wilson, maybe you can bounce back a little. But at least it's a good D. No. No. Now, Garrett Bowles is a one of, one of the.

of the linemen for the Broncos. How do you, you always say right about asking dumb questions. The media asks stupid questions. I'm not sure what you ask in the Denver locker room afterwards. There's not much to say, but here's Garrett Bulls, lineman after.

Would it be emotions like going through your head personally? Shit. Shit. It's tired of losing, man. I don't know. I've been here for seven years and all I've done is loss and it's frustrating.

I feel like that could be a good drop. Shit. Shit. Shit. With the little accent, whatever he's got. Shit. Yeah.

That'll be hard to forget that one. Oh, you got to forget it. Fun loving quarterback. It keeps everyone in the light. Should have forgot about it already. Like, you can't wallow in something like that.

Well, remember, because Sean Payton came in as the head coach and he ripped Nathaniel Hackett on the way when Hackett was gas like, oh, these guy, I've been watching from afar

and this team doesn't know what. Oh and 3, 70 burger. I think, I think Sean Payton might have seen this coming, hence why you said all those things. It's like, oh boy, we're no good. Yeah. Yeah, they're no good.

No good. Your chargers almost chargers themselves yesterday, but the Vikings charger did themselves. They did their best. They sure did. Fourth and one at your own 29, if I'm correct. 24, yeah. 24.

If you go for it and get your first down, the game's over. You can kneel victory formation, you can walk off the field. Or you punt it deep with how much time left? It was, well, yeah. 20 some odd seconds. Final minute, anyway. I thought I had it. And make them march.

It's crazy. Make them try to, you know, march the field for a touchdown. They're up four. so a touchdown had to happen. And boy, Harry at the end, and then it bounces off a Viking to be intercepted. Well, I remember Staley was, he was applauded for being a run and gun

and take chances and go for it on four. Yeah. From your own 24, hey? Yeah. Your own 24. I mean, if it works, God, he's a genius, but it sure hasn't worked a lot for him since he got the job. And then the Vikings,

I don't know if you saw that clock management at the end, end, they get a first down, and just watch about 20 seconds. What are you doing? Roll off the clock. And then in the post game, Kirk Cousin says, yeah, I couldn't hear the coach in my friggin' headset. So we just kind of winked. At home.

Yeah. In Minnesota. The hell. The, uh, sorry, I'm blanking on something here. Never mind. All right. Good. The Cardinals, as we talked about earlier, beat the Cowboys.

The Cardinals gave their coach a Gatorade shower after the win. One and two. Week three. That might be their only one of the year. I mean. I guess you better celebrate. I guess so. And that's a team that everyone thought was a Super Bowl contender before that.

I think everyone is reassessing if you lose to the Cardinals. You know what? Didn't the Cardinals have a lead at the half last week? Yes, it took, right? Like they're trying to get the first overall pick. Daniel Jones. Daniel Jones of the Giants were around 28, nothing, I believe. and they rallied and won.

And that's, for Cardinals fans are like, this is perfect, because we want to be bad, we want the first overall pick, but we also like that our team's trying. By all means, get a lead and then lose.

Yeah. But they hung on for a win, tough in those inverse standings. And now the bears who are trying to be good, as we talked about earlier, they're terrible. They should abandon that attempt. Defensive coordinator resigned.

Justin Fields said some of his struggling because, uh, the coaching's not great. He's got think class out there. That's what he said. And didn't they, And as the quarterback, they had about a hundred. Was it a hundred thousand dollars worth of gear stolen from their stadium?

Oh, they'll be okay. No word about it. They had like somebody broke it. How like six figures worth of helmets? Helmets and shoulder pads. Maybe get a new padlock or whatever you got to do. But that's how it's going. They lose 4110 to the chiefs.

And yes, Travis Kelsey, Travis Kelsey and Taylor Swift. appear to be a thing. You heard of here first on the Pind Report two weeks ago, boys. Come on now. Now, did you see this is Kelsey and Taylor Swift after the game in Kansas City? He's got the top down on the old car there. Oh, yeah. And they're just, uh,

life's good on the freeway. You know, young love, Rhett, young love. I think it was, uh, Bill Belichick in his press. conference yesterday. They said Kelsey has made a bunch of great catches of this career, but if it's true, this is his greatest. This would be the best to screw that. Biggest catch of his career. Yeah.

Now, the Steelers, Jack, your Steelers, coming through for you last night, you must have been jacked. Jack was jacked. Fives are good. I was happy. Hang on. Do we have the Jack Cam, ready? Can we go to the jack cam? Talking about vibes are good. Like,

We're first place in the division. We're all right. Matt Canada got his promotion. He put together a somewhat compliment. You hate that, man. You said when I was in Pittsburgh on Friday to find him and punch him in the head. Then he got promoted. Now it's a good thing.

And now he's showing his good moves. He wasn't showing his good plays before. I got the promotion. Now you good playbook. In the nuts. Oh, okay. It's true. That's what you were talking about.

Two and one. And they beat what? Those the dominant forces of nature that are, the Raiders and the Browns. Yeah, so clearly a contender. I mean, the Ravens lost the Colts. Vangel sucked over time. And the Browns of the Browns. Bengals tonight of the Rams.

That's one of two Monday Nighters, if I'm correct. Yeah. And Burrow still with that calf. He says he's going to go. Oh, of course. He has to be phone Aaron Rogers and get it fixed. Get some kooky science. That's right.

Get some lawn, lawn trimmings and some berries and grind it up. and placenta and yeah, throw that all over that. Drink it and rub it on his skin or whatever you need to do. Now, you guys know what cameo is, right? Where you can. Yes, of course. Celebrities. Camelari?

Calamario. Hey, superstar or movie star, whatever. Can you send a message to my friend and here's what I want you to say and I'll pay you to do so? Have you guys seen Breaking Bad? Yep. This is a listener. This is Hank. of course, the brother-in-law of Walter White.

And Hank was hired by somebody to deliver a message to Mr. Canada. He's a cop, right? Yeah, that's right. But I'll tell you what, Mitch has something to say. He needs you to get the fuck out of Pittsburgh, okay? Mitch says the Pittsburgh Steelers need to fire Matt Canada. Mitch also says that you ride Mike Tomlin's nuts and you call terrible players on the offense.

Mitch got a bone to pick with you, Matt, and help this works out between you guys. Pretty good. We got the gems. Who was the old principal from Problem Child? The Hurricanes fans kept going back to him. Passed away a year ago. Sorry. Oh, that super nasely voice.

Rod the board. Oh, Gilbert Godfried. Yeah, yeah. He was made famous by the Hurricanes fan. came out. That was amazing. So now this we're talking now this is he the offensive coordinator, Jack? Is that? Yeah.

Matt Canada. Yeah. He started out as a Keeby coach then he got promoted three years ago and he sucked forever. Yeah. And there was, you know that sandwich shop in Pittsburgh, do you know? For Montes, yeah. They were even tweeting about we're not opening restaurants in Canada and we're not talking about the country. Like everyone in the city's been slagging

this guy. Well, if you still feel, even in spite of the two and one of the big win yesterday, if you feel like Canada needs to go, there's somebody who has ties to the Steelers who says he will come in and take over. Now, I think he's incredibly high during this clip. Okay. But here's Antonio Brown. A.B.

Who says he's in. Matt Canada is a terrible officer coordinator. Last week, we scored six points and four quarters. I think I should call a place being that. I am an offensive skill and I put the players in the best position to emphasize their skills. He is high. Check me out,

AB officer coordinator. You did. You did. You did. So, like, is it high and drunk or just, like, crazy high? No, but, Fender, did you hear,

he's not as high or drunk as the guy that fell in the pit in Buffalo. The pit? That was last week, yeah. Oh, I missed a gutter. Dang. Yeah.

Okay. Covered in human feces, fell into a hole. Yeah, alcohol. Crack. Yeah, LSD. Cocaine. cocaine LSD,

went into a Port-a-Potty. Oh, no. And covered himself in the contents and then climbed the fence and fell into the pit that is soon to be

the Bill Stadium. Oh, dear. We all had tough nights out, but that's a next level. You know what? It's a bad cocktail. If there are aliens out there, they must look down and be like,

these people, I just like, should we help them or is this? How are we going to pot? How could we lose to these beings? Yeah, these people are not a concern. They need our help. We're going to lose to this. Look, dudes in,

dudes rubbing shit on himself. And they've got AI and they think they all. All right. Well, I thought the mustard and ketchup was getting a little. Yeah. Never mind that. I'll take that back now. Hearing loss clinic, hearingloss.ca,

There is the email address, Calgarypersonalinjury.com or macloud dashlaw.com is the website

to get in touch with McLeod Law. I was trying to think when I saw that it was this guy's birthday because I think Flames fans will remember him, if only, because we said his name wrong for years before he finally, I guess, corrected or somebody even thought to ask him how to say his name.

We've seen that too. Or yeah, or whatever the case. Wasn't it Zach Parize? said, actually it's Parisi or whatever it is. Jacob went by Jacob for the first six, eight years of his career. Happy birthday to Tony Lidman. Or Ludman. Ludman Lidman.

Lidman. Lidman. Lidman? Did you play with Tony Lutman? Of course I played with Tony Lutman. Tone. Tone, tone of tone. Yeah, give us, I think it was four years in Calgary, he played.

Then went to Buffalo. I mean, boy, you guys should be thick of thieves. I loved him here. Did they? I liked him here. He's a good player. he is uh hang on one sec how old are you today you're 46 years old tony tony tony tony tony big tony tone tone so give us uh give me your best tony ludman story

Yep, chug a lug. He always seemed like one of those guys. It's going to be hard for him to rub anybody the wrong way. Yeah.

Just kind of nice guy, decent guy, okay player. That of you. Yeah. Well, it was him in your gear. They were really good to go. Yeah. He did bit everything. It's good.

And you can see there why you would think it's Lidman. Yeah. Yeah. I got asked about Shillington over the weekend. about how you say it Did you tell him Killington? Who was it?

Well, and actually I was reading this morning Peter King, Monday morning quarterback. It's not Devon A-Chane, it's A-chan. He talked to the kid last night after us. How do you say you're... Well, it's actually it's A-chan. But A-Chain sounds like... Way better.

Way better. Hey, Tony! Happy birthday, big boy. How about Tony? Fodka's on us. Good. And Billy Bob. And Billy Bob's birthday.

Just like I would forfeit. We're good. Yeah. Walk out. Oh, you got Peter Cod. God damn it. We're out of here. This is going to be a convoluted story.

Okay. But it's all going to come together with a nice little bow. I'm going to give you my full attention then, Dean. All right. Over the weekend, there were NHL hockey games played in Australia. Australia, mate. What do they call it the Lounda, Nanda? Summit series.

It had some name. Anyway, the L.A. Kings, I believe, and the Arizona Coyotes went to Australia to play two games. It looked like there were some issues, like the ice. Ice quality was not good. They were... Played in a tennis stadium. They had, at the Rod Laiva, they had to cancel practice one day.

But either way, the Aussies, I think, were very excited to see NHL hockey. Now, this is where it gets a little... Last Christmas, we had our charity event. One of the people who won an auction. They won the Barnburner experience, came in, watched the show,

we went out for dinner. Mark. Oh, boy, Mark. Mark's girlfriend. All right. So the winner. These winners of one of our,

of one of our contests, her brother, Darcy Hortichuk. Darcy Hortichick. A legendary skrower. From Kamsack, Saskatchewan, played in Vancouver.

He, you know, good guy, Darcy Hortichuk. And she was saying, I should, you know, we'll connect you guys.

You should get him on the show. It's like, absolutely. Hortich, great guy. He's in Phoenix, lives in Phoenix. He's got deep connections. He's doing stuff with the waste management, and he's doing stuff with the coyotes.

What's that? The Thunderbirds, the charity group. Sure. So he is, he's doing a whole bunch of great stuff in Phoenix. He should get a hold of them. He should, sounds great. Well, Darcy Hortichok, he's involved with the coyotes.

He's going to Australia to help out and coordinate some of the stuff for the hockey team, for the coyotes. Sure. Mark says, this is again, you know, Darcy is going down there. We see Ozzy Brad on the show all the time. They should try and hook up. It's like, Ryan, you've been to Australia.

It's not like, hey, I'm going to be at the same food court in the mall as you. Do you know Tim in Toronto? Right? Yeah. Oh, he's going to Australia. You should maybe, you should hook those guys up. Great idea, Mark. Yeah, we'll just do that.

We'll reach out to Ozzy Brad and tell him that Darcy Hortichuk's going to Australia. You guys should really get together for a beer. Take a look at this. Yep, there we are. There they are. Ozzy Brad and Darcy Hortichuk hanging out at the game. Ozzy Brad with the flames hat on. Oh, what a beauty.

This show is bringing people together. Kick punch and boom. And the reports are. Ozzy Brad great guy come on is there was ever a doubt Hortichick says this guy's

everything you would want to hope and want him to be absolute beauty legend and look he's got the fit keep punching keep punching boom how about that now Pinder that you don't credit to you

you kind of you're the matchmaker there you made that happen well Ozzie Brad somehow reached out and it's just like I feel like he's now a piece of the show he's part of the fiber of this thing family he is family.

Yeah. And games are in Melbourne. He was in Melbourne. Connected these two beauties. We got to get Hortichick on to ask him. And Ozzy Brad, I think, is just recovering from like a four-day hangover. He'll be sending us a video to recap the whole thing. Is that right?

Okay, good. Once he's found his wallet and gotten back to the man cave, he'll send us an update. I see. We should get Hortichuk on if you haven't yet. We should. No, absolutely. This guy was a fearless fighter. Like, my God, he had a website back.

the day when websites weren't a thing that like players had and just showed all his fights. We kept going from these like carnivorous animals to he was a panther. He was a predator. He was a coyote. Like every animal he went to was like some animal each other animals. Fight everyone. Or the typical maniac. What's that right?

Orca. Well, I guess. Orca. Yeah. Good stuff. Love it. And our boy Mark, again, the other connection was he gave us that Ozzie rules jersey that we hung up.

And Ozzy Brad was going nuts because. It was the grand final for AFL. So small world. And if you were watching that goofy wrestling at the dome there. Yeah. When Jay Hussle hops the barricade and some guys wearing a barn burner shirt in the front row. That's our boy, Mark. That's Mark.

Yes. So good. He's a good boy. He is a good boy. We got two football games tonight. Yeah. Again. And I get that there is some reasoning and rationale behind having two football.

games on simultaneously. No one likes it. No. No, happy about it. No one thinks it's a good idea. And I can't even imagine that they're getting the info or the data that they want. It's ESPN and ABC, so it's both

Disney. Same owners. The nice thing about the TV that I stole, it has, it's already signed into a few accounts, so I don't have to get any. Oh my God. The 85er? Maniac. So you.

You did. You did haul it out. Turned it on yesterday. Because I was going to have to sign up for the, to stream some stuff. And I'm like, let's think outside the box here. Yeah. What could be. Let's try this.

Good for you. Well done. Shoveler's concerned that the person could see that it's signed in, though. They might be able to. I don't know how that. I don't know that. The Hustler TV thing works, but you let us know if you backtracks to you there. Proud of you.

Thanks, both. Two games tonight. Let's get into some of it with our Betway, bets of the day. Betway, get the Betway app on your phone. Bet the responsible way with Betway. I'm going to the Rams Bengals game. Your boy. My boy.

Pook and Nakua. Receiver. For the LA Rams, week one, 119 yards, week two, 147 yards receiving. A billion targets every week, do you know? Every week. Every week. Every week. 20 targets. 15.

What's going on? 10 receptions, 15. Anyway, so 119 and 147 respectively, week one, week two, put up 147 receiving yards against San Francisco. Man. They got the Bengals tonight. His over under is 69 and a half. Take the free money.

I'm taking the over. minus 115. And then Kiron Williams running back for the Rams. He has put up 52 rushing yards in week one

and week two, identical numbers. The Bengals coming into week three had the worst run defense in the national football league.

So he put up 52 against the 49ers run D, which is one of the best. Now you get the Bengals one of the worst. Can he get 59? 58 and a half

rush yards is the over, under, I'm taking the over minus 150. He's been the man there and they just traded Cam Acres. Not that he was getting tons of run, but they've loved their Karen Williams there. So let's go. There's a couple for me. What do you got there,

Pindo? I'm going to dance on the other football game. I have really liked what Tampa Bay has done here in this early NFL season. I don't think they're great, but if you're going to give me five points and they're at home, I'll take the bucks plus five against the Eagles who had a very

lackless of performance in week one, almost allowing New England to come back and beat them. And yeah, they obviously ran the crap out of the ball. Last week and look better. But the bucks are defeated. And they've done some things. I'll take the five points. I think that's fair.

And what Major League Baseball, the Astros and Mariners are both rough. Houston's won three of their last 10. Mariners have lost three in a row. Great pitching matchup. Luis Castillo, Justin Verlander. I'm going to take Houston. They're the better team here. Although I do like Seattle starter a touch more.

if you're the Jays, you can't lose. One of these teams is a lose and a half game on any of the other's gain and a half. They're idle tonight. So a lot of eyes will be on these two AL West teams. These two teams and the Rangers, two of the three, one in one division and the other two of the three are vying for a wildcard against the Jays. This again, Rhett feels like it's way too much info. There was a lot to see. So you like Houston against the Mariners.

I like Houston. Houston Money Line plus one in time. There we go. What did, uh, what did noodles call it? it? The drunk monkey or the baby monkey? Baby monkey. I just had the baby monkey. Yeah. Noodles was saying on his, on their show, overdrive. You get laid into the show, maybe you've had

something to eat because they do it, what, four to seven or whatever it is. So you have a bite to eat and then you kind of get some of these going. They call the baby monkey. So good. That's what happens when I start talking about Major League Baseball betting lines. I got a little off topic there.

That's fair. Yeah, you start to, you know what? You're Pinder. It's the only person I've been. You start talking and there you go. You know what you can do tonight? Two football games. You're like, well, how am I going to?

They're both on at the same time. What the H am I going to do? Yeah. Madrose Pub. Oh, right? Oh. You go out to Madrose Pub and Royal Oak, 20 beers on tap, kid friendly Saturday,

Sunday and Monday. they've got unbelievable food if I'm not mistaken and I mean I could be wrong isn't Monday wing night don't they do wings on Monday night you can get them any day but it's I know

the whole of a deal one of the days I know because I heard that dude with that great father with his pounded his kid through the bills table he was talking about extra crispy wings and I got thinking about wings and mad around anyway both of the games are going to be on the screens there

great great food some of the best pizza in Calgary gourmet pizza they make the sauce and the dough fresh every single day. Maybe you want some takeout. We'll allow it. Madrose. Dot pub is the website. 15 Royal Vista place is what you need to know.

5.15 kick off. Go ahead, Red. Sorry, Monday's at Madrose. 25% off appetizers. Appies, all right. That'll do. Get eight, right. Get eight appies.

At least eight. Yeah. And share nothing. Eight for the price of six. Go get. Sorry, Billy Bob, birthday or not, you get nothing. Mine. You know how Daddy is with his appies.

Mad Rose Pop. There go. 515 kickoff in Tampa, 615 in Cincinnati. So there's your staggered double dip on the Monday. Very nice. I don't mind that tonight. How's the jet lag pender, you know? So it wasn't just the jet lag.

It said I had to do my stupid fantasy hockey draft from 2 until 4 a.m. on what was Sunday morning in Rome. Well, I get it. I get it. Long story short, I had a plan in place, and then that fell through because people were being idiots, so I had to do it myself, which meant not getting to bed until 4 a.m.

And then the travel, and then it was, you know, a week of party before that. Maybe that helps your jetlock. You stay up there. I got home and just crashed to 9 something last night. That's very early for Pinder. So 10 hours of sleep, feel great. I was going to say, we talked a lot last week about how garbage you were going to be today. Not bad.

Well done today. Thank you. Yeah. Now, can you avoid getting pussy and snotty? Yeah. I know. I think so. I had a nebulizer?

I think it was just the right amount of town between the wedding night and the flight home. Because if it was like, it was Thursday and I flew on a Sunday. that's a good gap from your big party night to return to reality. And your wife is still there, correct? She's got, I think, like eight gals on a big yoga retreat thing. Lots of tears at the airport when she said goodbye. Oh, yeah. She sits side of the kids.

Yeah. Give my kiss for me. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Now, question, talking about fantasy. Now, I debated whether to do this. There's, there's, you know, fantasy football and there's what, what should you do? What's the ethics? Yeah. And then there's having a buddy.

Yeah. Now we all know that Rhett and his football team simply the breast. Yeah. Red has already through two weeks become somewhat disenchanted with his team. Oh no. Is he starting dead guys? Was he last week? He was like, I have no investment in this team. You know, blah, la, he's kind of not here there. So I know this. And at the best of times, I don't know how much effort or attention he's paying. So it's yesterday.

He has Jalen Waddle in his starting lineup. Come on. No, well, hang. He has Jalen Waddle in. And on Saturday, he was out. Yeah, like it wasn't a game time decision on that. So he was out. So I see this and I debate.

Do I message Rett and tell him, hey, Waddle's out, make a switch? Or do you just, no, let him sink or swim? you're in the bed you made for yourself. What is the proper etiquette there? I'll ask Jack and I'll ask you. Fantasy football, fantasy sports. What's the right thing to do? Try and help out of buddy or let them sink or swim.

Jack? Depends who it is. Oh. Whoa. Explain. Playing favorites. Oh, there's always guys in your leagues that are kind of weasel. Okay, so then let's go a step further.

It's me and Rhett. this exact scenario. Oh, he was playing you. That was my follow-up, Dean. Was he playing you? He was not playing me. Okay, okay. Yeah, you got to let Redna.

I got to let Retina. No. Oh, did you see Pender's face? Yeah, we got your answer. No, no. I mean, I'm the commissioner of this league, so I hate it when this happens because people get mad at me.

They're not set in the last. I'm like, I mean, you're the GM of your team, and you should want to win. And if you make horrible mistakes, it's not other people's job to pick you up, but it just sucks for the whole league when this happens because now it's like some guy gets a w he might not earn glossy baby monkey again listen i if i saw it i would have mentioned it too i first of all it saved you three effing points so thank you for that okay but i clicked the start

the starters yeah active players so it should do it itself i thought failure I changed it, so maybe it would have done it. I don't know. So I guess you have your answer. I did message, Red, and just said, hey, just so you know, waddles out. And he's in your starting line. But then I got thinking afterwards, there would be some,

and not this one, because I don't think anybody's particularly crazy over the top competitive in it, but there would be some guys would scream murder in a lot of fantasy drafts if you did something like that. I didn't think about it until afterwards. She's like, geez, did I do the, did I do the right thing? I would say at this time a year, it's less contentious.

But if you're like two weeks to go and there's teams vying for like a playoff spot, multiple teams and one team runs up against this, like that's when things get really heated. I won't forget. I'm clicked in. I start active players. So you took out Waddle and put in what, Nico Collins? He was awesome the first two weeks. He got three points. Yeah.

We got a big lead. He's around the ball. Houston. So how's everyone doing in their fantasy, Rhett, you're going to get a win? I'm going to get a win. I got screwed over by Fogel for like 125 points, the one week that he's going to win this year.

Yeah. Anyway, I had a hundred and, anyway, that's fine. Anyway, yeah. I'm not fine. I'm going to go to 0.13 here unless I get a miraculous Brett Maher kicking performance tonight. The former CFL or you love the CFL.

Yeah. Karma. Well, I've ran into some good teams. I've also had some dog shit results. Deshawn Watson's still playing for me. What the hell am I doing here? I don't know. I've got Jordan Love on my bench two weeks in a row.

Like, just play the guy. He's good. Yeah. Stop overthinking it, dummy. So we're going to get a serious hole to climb out of here. Like we did all we need to do. What was your, where are you at? Do you know you're going to?

I'm playing Jack. I am down going into tonight. He's got, uh, He's running back. Rashad White, I believe, of Tampa Bay. And I've got Hertz, Karen Williams, and Puka. Yeah.

Come on, boy. Your favorite, you're expected to win by like 25. So you got a nice little cushion there. Yeah, I know. Well, we appreciate you. Tomorrow on the show, deep, deep analysis on tonight's split squad

with the Seattle Cracken for the Calgary Flames. Seattle, who? They got a hockey team? Split squads. I don't even like the word. Who's it for? Is it truly owners? When you, well, fair enough.

You know who loves preseason? The owners. You know who hates it? Everyone else. Let's make two hockey teams and send one on the road and keep. I just don't know what if it's an evaluation tool at all. I'm sure it is, but not for the guys we care about, right? That's the thing.

This will be really good to evaluate, you know, HL bubble and junior guys. None of those guys are on these teams. It's a tough spot, though, right? Because you think about last night as well, Coronado, you know, you want a spot on this team. You better do something. It does.

Well, yeah, look who you played against. A bunch of fucking HLers. Oh, whatever. You'd rather see them score than not. But it's just, yeah, like who's really, like, I've seen some people on Twitter trying to do the big dissection on this year versus last year. I'm like, no, this is preseason against people you've never heard of. No, no, no, no, no. But hey, if you, if you took your kids and you like

here in the goal song, it was a great night. It was a great night. Yeah, have some, I think they still do the malt, the ice cream over there. Oh yeah. Yeah. I want to see that new wing place. We're going to do some research here. Maybe I'll do some preseason if that's the case. If that wing post you also have this new thing. I saw people tweeting about it where you, you, you, you sweat. swipe a card, you go in and you self-serve and then you Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Some new. Yeah, the European style where you get a whole bunch that you don't need.

Yeah, you're going to just start grabbing stuff because it's free, except you have to swipe your credit card and it's like, oh, right. It's a grabbing for me. I had that in Toronto, it's Rogerstein. There you go. Jays. Buddies, subscribe, like, tell your friends, be kind.

Five stars. Five stars. Help somebody out that needs help today. And if somebody has Jalen Waddle in their starting lineup, let them know. Do the right thing and let them know. See you tomorrow, buddies. Jack.
