Starting point is 00:00:00 Hey guys, it's us The Jonas Brothers. I'm Joe. I'm Kevin. And I'm Nick. And guess what? We created our own podcast called, Hey Jonas. We invented a podcast?
Starting point is 00:00:09 Well, we didn't invent it. We just contributed to it. We're the first people to do podcasts. We get to ask other people questions because we're sick and tired of being asked questions. Well, sick and tired is a strong way to put it. But, you know, tired and sick. Listen to Hey Jonas on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. Just listen.
Starting point is 00:00:27 We don't care where you hear it. What's up, fam? It's Isaiah Thomas. And I'm C.J. Toledano. It's our favorite time of the year on our podcast, Point Game, the playoffs. We're digging into the biggest surprises of the season. And I'm looking back on some of my greatest playoff moments. If we didn't talk ever again, I was harmed.
Starting point is 00:00:43 You just understood. That's how personal it got. Wow. Then after that game seven, Marquis keep coming to. He's like, you know, I love you, dog. You know, it's all love. This was just playoffs. This was just basketball.
Starting point is 00:00:54 So listen to Point Game on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. is not who you think he is. Your body is not what you thought it was. Your identity is formed by a secret history. I'm Danny Shapiro, and these are just a few of the stunning stories I'll be exploring on the 14th season of Family Secrets.
Starting point is 00:01:14 He kind of shoved me out of the way and said, move. And he went out the front door, and he jumped in a car and drove off, and that was the last time I saw him. Listen to Season 14 of Family Secrets on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. This episode of Bustin with the Boys, the Boys, is presented by Barstool Sports.
Starting point is 00:01:34 I'm going to throw a few words at you. All right, here we go. Grit. Dependable, hardworking, strong, advanced. What do these words embody? They embody the Chevy Silverado. Shoutout Chevy Silverado, no free shoutouts. The strongest, most advanced Silverado ever.
Starting point is 00:01:53 This Silverado is dependable like the people who drive them. You. The design is big, bold, and. demanding and this truck will knock you out of your socks and turn heads when you roll up in this thing. A partner with grit and determination, anything is possible, and that's why Bustin with the boys has partnered up with Chevy Silverado because it just makes sense. From everything in tailgating, hauling that new big screen TV or couch to watch the boys in, or you want to flex on somebody, towing those boats, RVs, and trailers, off-roading, moving
Starting point is 00:02:26 day, helping out your friend or family member, even when you don't want to help them out. but you just want them to see that hey you're driving that Chevy Silverado road trips all of it the truck does everything and that is why you need to get your cute little behind in a Chevy Silverado you want to know what it takes to be the best and what some of the most legendary players have in common you got to be on top you've got to be strong you got to be ahead of the game and forward thinking you have to work harder than everyone else and you have to come through when everyone else is giving in it takes grit and you can't be afraid to get your hands dirty just like the top tier athletes just like the boys just like the wolf pack just like everyone involved in this the silverado is in a league of its own strong advanced and dependable take yourself to a Chevy dealership near you and let them know that the boys sent you a couple of housekeeping things for the boys um you guys are crushing it you guys uh the tier tier ones dude you guys are absolutely just being magnificent i fucking love everything you guys are doing
Starting point is 00:03:28 the spread, the running down. The last week, and you gotta think, you gotta play a little math with me here, right? Because you're listening to this on Monday. I did this on Tuesday. My first solo pod came out yesterday. But to you,
Starting point is 00:03:43 it came out a week ago, right? So we're playing this teeter-totter of up, downs, doing rounds. The week before that, with Theo Vaughn and Brandon Shaw, which I'm assuming probably has a little bit to do with it, dude, fucking, I had to bring out my curse words, too, because I realize I'm cursing a lot.
Starting point is 00:04:00 But freaking you guys, dude, on the YouTube, on the live premieres, which my live premiere solo is coming out tonight, I'll probably have something else to say about that later, is there's absolutely been ascending at this rate. No turbulence. I'll probably just keep it a little more straight, just straight into the atmosphere.
Starting point is 00:04:16 So I appreciate you guys, man, because you guys are keeping this bus moving figuratively, not literally. There's not even a driver's seat. But you guys have done a good job, dude. So you guys are ascending, dude. You guys are through the roof, man. Like just absolutely crushing it to YouTube.
Starting point is 00:04:28 tubes are doing it. You guys are subscribing or rating five stars. The interaction on Twitter has been unbelievable. I've got a weird thing going on with Twitter and Instagram right now because when we first started this BusW with the Boys podcast, me and Will, it was, Will was always tweeting and me and Taylor him behind his back would just make fun of him. Like, why is this guy always tweeting and doing stuff? And now here I am, you know, completely just being off the rockers and tweeting about everything. But you guys have been awesome, dude. You guys have been unbelievable. And before we get any farther, let's just, Let's just dive in.
Starting point is 00:04:57 Welcome to Bustin with the boys. Brought to you by Barstool Sports. Now, we need to, as always, subscribe and rate five stars. Now, the way we keep this thing going in the direction is, like the pay it forward movie, right? You tell a friend who tells you friends, who tells you friends who tells you friends. That's how we fucking get the triangle of love, our pyramid scheme of podcast. We got to get that thing going. So you got to tell, just you got to be our advertisement, man.
Starting point is 00:05:19 I'm not going to go spend money on billboards. I might spend money. I don't know. Actually, I love billboards. But you guys got to subscribe. you got to rate five stars dude um subscribe subscribe subscribe on the youtube channel follow us on twitter follow us on instagram uh you can go to bustin with the boy busin wtb dot com smack that merch up dude we had sales you missed out on it but the sale you're still able to get merch if you want
Starting point is 00:05:41 we sold out on a few things didn't we joshie yeah we did we have we had a lot of sellout things you guys are it's unbelievable the following you guys have had which i've kind of i talked about in the pre pre intro before the intro it's uh it's been very very cool, man. You guys have been awesome. I think I'm wondering, and like I said before, about how we have to follow the bouncing ball when I record these things, I'm wondering how my last podcast aged, right? Because there's a lot of Titan fans out there today that I've seen on my Twitter that are very upset about the last game against the Cleveland Browns, right? You look at the end score and people are saying, I'm not saying, but people are saying, well, you know, it was trash time. We ended up coming back, blah, blah, blah, blah.
Starting point is 00:06:25 Yes and no. All right. Did the boys have the best first half ever? Obviously not. Like for me to go and try to, you know, save that, you know, Night and Shining Armor, save the boys of the reports. I can't do that for you right now. But what I can do is double down on fighting through adversity that the boys did before.
Starting point is 00:06:43 That was actual just cough. That wasn't actual. Maybe I have COVID. Maybe it's good that I'm not with the boys right now. But, one thing that, um, it's just tough, right? The way the game snowballed,
Starting point is 00:06:55 the beginning. They drive down. They get three. That's no biggie. We go for it on fourth. Now, people, now, here's the issue with people. Everyone's a coach on Monday, right? So, people are calling out Vrable, calling out Arthur Smith, that dumb ashton have done X, Y, and Z. If we would have got it, you guys would have been like the balls
Starting point is 00:07:13 on these guys, right? The steel Kahones, these dudes are reping with. All right? It didn't, the fourth and one didn't work out, right? Aaron Brewer, and that people will be upset about Aaron Brewer, catching that ball. Aaron Brewer is legitimately, like, he's like not even 6-2. And I think he would say he's 6-2.
Starting point is 00:07:31 I don't think he is. Like 285. The dude's a freak athlete. I've seen the kid run. I love him the death. Hard worker, freak athlete. I've seen him catch balls. That stuff happens, man.
Starting point is 00:07:42 Dude rallied and dude got to it. And that's one of those. So you don't get the fourth and one, right? Now you're at short field. You're about at the 50. You're right around the 40-yard line. Now they go in, they go in and score. Now that's asking a lot of the defense, right?
Starting point is 00:07:54 People are, well, statistically this year, third down. I don't want to hear it, dude. You know why? Because I'm all about the positivity right now. You gotta stay positive in time, but it's the holiday season. You see the lights, the boys did say to me, the boys did say that the lights that was going to get better and better as we go. I guess we missed this week. And that's okay.
Starting point is 00:08:12 I just don't want this to become a habit, right? We just don't want to do that. We don't want things to become where we just start turning downwards. We've already talked about the ascend upwards. And why would we change that? Because it's beautiful, baby. All right? I'm trying to get to a cruising altitude of 30,000 feet.
Starting point is 00:08:24 know what I'm saying? So the boys go and score, right? Not the boys, the Browns. The Browns go and score. Now it's 10 to zero, all right? Then something happens that never happens. Never happens. Unfortunately, and these things do happen sometimes.
Starting point is 00:08:39 And Derek should not beat himself up about that because there's a workhorse. He's a face of our team. He does an amazing job. He beats kids downs over and over and over again. And so the guy fumbles. Look, who's the guy? What's the guy's name that pulled it out? He was a first round pick a while back, right?
Starting point is 00:08:58 And he's bounced around a little bit. The defensive lineman that got him. Oh, man, I wish I knew. I think he went to Missouri. Regardless. Fuck, pulls his arm, ball comes out, and now you're back at the 50-yard land, right? So these guys don't even have to travel that far to go score.
Starting point is 00:09:12 Now the game's 17-0, and we just blinked, right? Like, I don't know if the first quarter was over. It was like, oh, whoa, that's a lot to go down. Fast forward to halftime. I'm tweeting. little adversity, no big deal. Then they throw the bomb, right? Now everyone's like, fuck you, Taylor.
Starting point is 00:09:27 Why don't you do something, you fucking loser? I don't know. What do you guys want me to do? I have 20 ACL. You know what I'm saying? Like there's only so many things that you can do in the situation. Me, I've already said this from day one. All I am is a number one fan, right?
Starting point is 00:09:43 Text the boys before the game. Win or lose, I text the boys after the game because I love them to death. And I know those guys. You guys don't know those guys, right? You're listening to me. I am the mediator between you and those guys. and those guys are unbelievable dudes. They go into halftime.
Starting point is 00:09:57 I get on the phone with one of my friends. We're talking, right? We're coaching. We're talking about what they should do, what they should do, blah, blah, blah. They get the ball in the beginning of the second half. Drive down there and score. Drive down there and score.
Starting point is 00:10:09 Like just start, the wheels just start turn. Defense starts playing better. Things just are starting. And you're starting to think right around halfway through the third quarter or maybe even a little later than that. The boys might pull this off. Then they go into four minute mode after the game, Baker Mayfield, right?
Starting point is 00:10:23 And Baker, Mayfield, I have different levels of how I feel about Baker, right? Because if he was my teammate, I'd probably love the guy to death. I'd probably be all about him. Now I don't play with him. You know, so I'm looking at him. I'm looking at him.
Starting point is 00:10:52 What do you do? You lost your keys that many times? Can't do that in stadiums. Have your girlfriend, wife, whatever her name is, go in and get the things yourself. Shivery, I get it. But still, it's very, it's frustrating. Frustrating to see the antics and stuff like that. When it's not going for you, right?
Starting point is 00:11:08 Like, we're all about, we talked about the horrible and the variable thing, and we're gung-ho about it, right? I'm over here speaking out of two sides of my mouth. I'm not the joker. I'm like this. I'm like this like this. I'm like the joker, dude. I'm speaking out of both sides of my mouth.
Starting point is 00:11:22 because I'm all excited about when Vrable big times hardball because that's hilarious and now Baker Mayfield which the most athletic move I've ever seen in my life when Higgins catches the ball
Starting point is 00:11:35 and does the fix up his tie in the briefcase he walked horrible his celebration he did a terrible job of it I don't think he really bought into the role but Baker Mayfield with his spin to one knee
Starting point is 00:11:46 paparazzi move that shit's unbelievable that was I watched that and my knee hurt my knee was like we can't do that anymore and I just massage I judged it a little and said, you're going to be all right, sweet cheeks.
Starting point is 00:11:55 It's going to be okay. Eventually we'll be able to do that again. I don't know if I could do that before that. The kid's an athlete, right? And the kid's a haters. And the more I'm talking about it, the more I like Baker Mayfield. Because the guy's got a diversity all the time.
Starting point is 00:12:07 He's a loud mouth cat, talks a bunch of shit, all this different stuff, and goes out and does what he did. And I'm happy for him that way. But then you see the antics, and I'm watching my team lose to him. And I hate the guy.
Starting point is 00:12:19 You know? And I'm sure Titans fans are pissed. about that or pissed about the fight from the team. Like, we had it, we could have done at the end, right? Like, there's too many mistakes, whatever. I'm not a coach. I can't go into that. I let I said before.
Starting point is 00:12:33 You guys probably think I know what I'm talking about. I have no idea what I'm talking about. You know, I just don't. But I do know, I just love watching the boys play. And I loved the fight they had at the end of the game. That was to me the coolest thing. And such a big difference between 2014 and 2015, which I talk about all the time,
Starting point is 00:12:51 but like you got to know your history. so you don't repeat negative shit. Because if you go, you know, two and 14, three and 13, that's a feeling you never want, dude.
Starting point is 00:13:00 You never want to be in mid-October going to, ain't no chance we're going to win the rest of the year. This is awful. And to watch those guys fight back from a 31-point deficit, which I think was a franchise record
Starting point is 00:13:09 at halftime, like that's pretty cool. That's very cool to see that kind of fight. I think Vrable said it in the news a little bit. We just got to build off that second half. They did great, dude. They did an awesome job. You didn't get the win.
Starting point is 00:13:22 wanted, but you know what? They play again. I'm thinking the Titans. You know what I'm saying? There's a lot to be proud of in that game. Miles Garrett's a Beast. Yeah, that probably sound really weird in your ears. Just me drinking water.
Starting point is 00:13:38 I'm not going to say what water because we don't do free shoutouts here. But if you guys want a sponsor, we would love it. I actually love drinking this water. I'm not going to say what it is. Miles Garrett's a Beast, dude. You could tell, I tell you what, I had COVID back in late June. and I you know it was it wasn't like a horrible thing it was what it was but when I had it I was hurting when I went back to going to work out I took my 10 days or whatever the the CDC rules are
Starting point is 00:14:04 and I went back and I did my workouts and while I was doing my workouts you'd the very minimum of stuff I would used to do was hurting the old lungs and so my he was on COVID right correct he was on COVID reserve yep watching him knowing he like I don't know miles like that right I've been around him a few times, talk to him a few times. Good dude. I know Sears fans don't think that after the whole Mason Rudolph thing.
Starting point is 00:14:29 Or was it Mason Rudolph? Yeah, it was Mason Rudolph. Watching him during the game, because I'm watching David Lee Questenberry, right? Who I think had another good game. I think, yeah, he had a sack. Dude, listen, you get to games like that
Starting point is 00:14:43 where you're down 31 points and you got to sling it a hundred times. Like, your boy might have given up a sack there, right? Your boy's giving up sacks. It's like, oh, the invincible, to want, no, dude, that shit's hard. It's hard to be a play left tackle. It's hard to play any part in the offensive line. I think he held his own.
Starting point is 00:14:56 You had a couple short corner. We talked about those things. He and I talked about it at the game. I think he played well, from what I can tell. Obviously, it wasn't the dominating performance. It wasn't against the Indianapolis Colts because, well, you know, that's how shit rolls sometimes, right? You ride the highs, you ride the lows. And you try to stay in the middle to make sure you can just continually get better every single day.
Starting point is 00:15:13 I think David Lee did a good job of staying level the whole entire time. That's the kind of fight that dude has. but you could tell Miles during the game they'd show him after like two plays like the series just started right it's third and six or whatever and the dude's like you know hands on the old hippers
Starting point is 00:15:31 legs are crossed and he's doing the thing he's doing that and you can just tell he's hurting and you know I don't know if that's how he really was he likes to play the game because some dudes actually play the game where you do a little you're hurting a little bit
Starting point is 00:15:47 and then oh you'll just go super hard do you think to yourself oh this guy's not gonna go already he's dying right and then boom, the dude gets after it. And so he did that a few times, but I could tell, I could feel like I, because I've gone through it and everybody has different experiences, right? Some people are in the hospital.
Starting point is 00:16:02 Some people don't even feel anything. I think he and I were around the same bar based on how he looked from a body language standpoint, which is a lot. Yeah, it says right here, his parents actually both had it too. And he said he was in a lot of pain during the game. Yeah. Well, see, I didn't even read that article. That's how smart I am, dude.
Starting point is 00:16:17 You know, I say I don't know what I'm talking about. And then here we are. I guess I know everything that I'm talking about, right? just dipping back into that cerebellum. And you know what? Look up what the fuck in the brain is thinking, right? Because I don't think cerebellum's emotions, whatever that is. I'm dipping into that.
Starting point is 00:16:32 All right. I'm dipping into your brain. I'm swimming around, dude. Just slithering around, loving you up, making you feel special, dude. And you're listening right now. And you guys are crushing it. It's unbelievable the growth, right? We're doubling down.
Starting point is 00:16:44 And I might even triple down on that, dude. So I guess Miles is not feeling good from a Titan standpoint. that's one for us first COVID right that's one for us I don't know what score are we at now I believe it's 4 3 4 3 us or 4 3 5 3 us oh we're dominating COVID we're dominating COVID right now that's a big deal dude I gotta I gotta be honest yeah I can't stand COVID I can't stand this shit dude and here let me tell you guys about how dramatic you guys are you people, right? You people, you people, right?
Starting point is 00:17:24 And it's both sides, right? Let's cut the political line down the middle where daddy likes to stay, all right? Daddy likes to dip his toes left and a little bit right sometimes, right? Because I like the, I'm a Switzerland cat, right? If you're a big Trump guy, guess who else is a big Trump guy? Your boy, right? If you big Bernie guy, guess who else is a big, not Bernie, Biden guy? You're the big Biden guy?
Starting point is 00:17:44 You boy, right? Because, dude, I don't know, right? I'm 29. I don't know. I don't fucking know. No one knows politics. No one knows what's going on, right? I think it talks to the Luminati and shit.
Starting point is 00:17:55 Listen, COVID people. Let's talk about what you should and should not do in COVID, right? You want to wear a mask. Wear a mask, right? If you're on the highway by yourself in a car wearing a mask, you've probably gone too fucking far, right? You're probably this way, right? Stage left, if you know what I'm talking about.
Starting point is 00:18:18 it's a little too much. It's okay to take that thing off and get some fresh area once in a while. You know what I'm saying? Because if you, think about this, you got a mask on and someone rips a fart, you might smell the fart, right? Okay, so you probably,
Starting point is 00:18:32 that shit probably, it could not get in, it could get in, I don't know, right? Fauci says one thing, CDC says another. It's crazy. All right. Now, if you're having a conversation with me and you say,
Starting point is 00:18:46 ah, Nazi Germany, I'm done. I am fairy dust, dude, I am out of here. I'm out of here in that conversation. We're not talking about mass genocide. We're talking about the COVID thing, right? The mask, the no mask. Me personally, I loved what Shabby said.
Starting point is 00:19:05 Shab goes, I'm a stats guy, 99.9%. I feel good about it. I'm not a mask guy. Me, I'm probably not either. But if there's an old person who feels uncomfortable in a situation, I'm going to put the mask on. Because that's, you know, it's just the golden rule. right. Joe Rogan says it best. Just be cool to people. Do the cool thing and just be cool. Right. Yes, there's talks about liberties be taken away and there's talks about, you know, socialism on this side. And we weren't, you know, these people are bigots and racist on that. It's just all, we are just too divided as a country, you know. And what am I? What am I? I'm a privileged-ass white dude. Like I am. Right. Anyway, what you want to say? Like, dude, I'm a, I'm a, I'm a,
Starting point is 00:19:48 I'm a straight, rich white male, right? The, like the worst, the worst right? Or whatever, I don't know. I don't fucking know. I just think that we need to take a fucking chill tablet, right? Where is that prescription? Where's the doctor issuing the chill tablets? Take these twice daily.
Starting point is 00:20:07 You know what? And maybe you'll just calm the fuck down a little bit. Everybody. I'm not saying this, you guys want to get mad to me over here? Get mad. If you guys want to get mad to me over here, get mad. But your boy stays in the line right in the middle. This is what we're going to do.
Starting point is 00:20:18 because it's frustrating, right? The whole world's fucking running in shambles and some of the world's doing well, some of the world's not doing well. America's not doing a great job with this stuff. We're not doing, we're not doing a great job. And we need to figure that shit out a little bit because there's got to be a happy medium.
Starting point is 00:20:34 I don't have, I don't have the answers for that. So if you're like, well, you think you're such a smart guy, Taylor, like you should fucking do something about it. You should do, you should run for up. I'm not going to do that, dude. Here's what I am. I'm going to sit in my bus, and I'm going to spew out,
Starting point is 00:20:47 basic in the middle opinions that doesn't really piss off anybody too much. That's what I'm going to do. You know what I'm saying? When I was in the Titans building, when all that shit was going down and people were pointing fingers, that's the issue, right?
Starting point is 00:21:00 With Twitter, everyone's got an opinion. Everyone's ripping around with their opinions. And you guys, we got a little bit of an infestation in the old Titan community. We got an infestation about some fair weather fans. That's okay. I don't think you should live and die by a sports team. I don't think you should do that.
Starting point is 00:21:16 But you can't be like fuck these guys right away when they're losing by 31 points. Fuck these guys when the COVID rules come out. Because you have no idea what's going on. And I know because I was there when the COVID stuff was going on. And I also know that Rable, John, the trainers, police that shit just fine. So relax, dude. You know, Aretha Franklin says, respect. Just switch the letters and the word to relax.
Starting point is 00:21:45 And then we're there. right? R-E-L-A-X-X-X-X X-X X-X X, X, X, X, X, X, X, that's what we're doing, right? I've also thought I could be a country singer. I've also, that's what happens when you get hurt. But I digress. Literally, that's my COVID rant for the day. I just think, right, you want to go into a store.
Starting point is 00:22:09 I don't want it to be forever. I don't want to wear a mask forever, right? Because if people are doing COVID and flu, eventually wouldn't we just say, okay, flu is now COVID. COVID is now flu, right? We're just going to live. I don't know when that happened. I don't know why, because the boy's not a doctor, right? General Studies major.
Starting point is 00:22:24 But for now, until we're figuring out the wallows of life and this whole 2020 thing, let's just, if we're going to go to the place, just wear the mask. And then you take it off and bitch about it, it, it's who's you in the car. I love that, dude. I love a good, like, individual bitch session. I do it all the time in the car. I'll just start bitching at people all the time. It's beautiful.
Starting point is 00:22:44 And you get it off your chest. And also, if you're, if you're, you're, like, you're, in the car wearing a mask, turn on the newer wreath of Franklin song, relax, you know what I'm saying? REL AXX, I need a little relax. That's what we're going to do.
Starting point is 00:22:58 You know what? How many people did I reach with that rant? Probably zero. Let's take a moment just to have a quick little break ski, right? Let's read an ad. Knock, knock, who's there? It's the boy comp nasty. Shout out myself, all free shoutouts
Starting point is 00:23:13 because this is my podcast. And I miss you guys. incredibly so much not being able to be on these episodes. So I thought to myself, I'm sitting up here, I'm sitting up here doing the ads, emailing with Barstool, taking care of all the other stuff, and I don't get to have the fun on the bus.
Starting point is 00:23:28 And I'm listening to Taylor's episode, The Boys Crushin, and I just miss you guys. I miss engaging. So I thought to myself, how can I get in as I do these ad reads? Oh, bright idea. We're not full on ad reads this week. So I'll do an ad read to myself.
Starting point is 00:23:43 You can follow me on Instagram and Twitter at underscore Will Compton. Nice little follow. I'm decent. I'm solid, some would say. But I miss you guys. Thank you so much for your support. As always, big hugs, tiny little kisses.
Starting point is 00:23:57 Keep being a fucking wolf. Keep subscribing. Keep unsubscribing. Keep resubscribing again to bounce those boys up the charts. I'm sure Taylor's been all over you about that. But I just wanted to pop in and say hello from the boy to you. Back to the episode. Let's give an ACL update, dude.
Starting point is 00:24:15 ACL feels good. You guys, I'm six weeks out today when I film this. Which are right, we're going to do it again. Monday. You're now listening to this pod Tuesday. It was this past Tuesday. So I'm six weeks out right now, man. And when you're watching this piece on YouTube,
Starting point is 00:24:31 your boy's now seven weeks out. I don't want to confuse you. But when I'm filming this right now, I'm at six weeks. The fluid's going. Anna Hartman, she does a thing called Movement Rev. She's the best PT person I've ever. you know, athletic trainer, physical therapist. She's going to kill me if she hears that because apparently that's a big deal.
Starting point is 00:24:50 It's like calling a massage therapist and masseuse. Like, no, I'm not a hooker. Don't call me that. So, like, that's kind of a thing. But I still really haven't found out yet what the hell that is. She has done such an amazing job, dude. The way she has just worked on my knee, my knee feels strong, dude. I'm pulling sleds backwards.
Starting point is 00:25:09 And today I did forwards. I'm light and I tweeted out today. So if you want a reference of when this podcast was filmed, just go back to when I tweeted this. Just an update on my weight. I'm at 279.3. I was 309.3 the day I got hurt. So that's exactly 30 pounds.
Starting point is 00:25:26 It's crazy. Down to the point, right? And I'm looking in the mirror at myself with a t-shirt. I'm like, damn, bro, I'm looking small. I'm looking like a tiny little dude. But it's the cool thing is I'm laying such a cool, like a good solid foundation, right? I'm eating clean.
Starting point is 00:25:42 I'm stretching. I'm getting a lot of mobility in my thoracicic. I'm in my hamstrings, my hips, my quads. Like the foundation I'm building for myself to start building on, I'm super excited about. And maybe someday I took a picture like a week after surgery when I write when I got home, dude. Oh my God, dude.
Starting point is 00:26:03 Talk about a bag of dicks. Like it was, oh, it was bad. And every day, you know, I've reached out my bag of dicks. I've pulled out one dick and I've thrown it in the garbage can. So I'm slowly, there's a lot of dicks in there. So I'm just slowly grabbing dicks. dick throwing it out grabbing another dick throwing it out every day every workday is another dick gone and so your boy i mean i'm not like a miraculous bodybuilder now but i tell you what
Starting point is 00:26:25 like things are looking good uh you know under the shirt it's skinny it is skinny i'm a skinny 279.2 79.3 i'm a skinny 279 the boy got a frame though so there is um there is a lot going there i tell you what was a one thing that i watched and this is going to be so ridiculous for me to compare to but just stay with me for a second right Ron Rivier God damn it, dude. Ron Riviera has cancer, right? And I'm sitting at my house
Starting point is 00:26:53 the other day watching ESPN and watching this absolute gangster on the Washington football team. Like, they're doing a thing on ESPN. He's ringing the bell, getting through cancer like we saw with David Lee, Questenberry, which is the coolest shit ever, right?
Starting point is 00:27:08 Like, this dude's going through chemo while coaching a football team. Like, when you, like, for me, And this, please, this is like comparing a war to football, which coaches do all the time. It's so annoying. But like, here I am doing something equally comparable. When you get hurt, right, you don't have time to think about, poor me, this is going to be a lot. This is going to happen.
Starting point is 00:27:33 What if this? What if that? You just kind of like go through it and you slowly like, you know, as you get distant, more distant future and things start to feel more and more normal. emotions do start to come out. And I can only imagine, right, it's on steroids for Ron because the dude is, I am so inspired by this guy the way he's handled himself in this situation. And you know, the Washington football team,
Starting point is 00:27:55 I mean, someone argued that the NFC East is the most competitive division, right? Well, I mean, they're all like the same record. They beat the Steelers yesterday, which is, I mean, you know, it's cool to see teams go undefeated and it's cool to see, you know, teams be undefeated teams.
Starting point is 00:28:10 So that was a cool situation. as a spectator watching, right? Don't think of me as a left title in the NFL. Fiam, he has also another spectator, just watching a cool game where, you know, a team that's totally was slept on and then X, Y, Z, blah, blah, blah. Like, it's, I can't imagine what he is going through.
Starting point is 00:28:27 When this season's over, right? Because when you ring the bell, that means you're finished your chemo, right? And you're in remission. So the man's in remission, but he still doesn't have time to focus on that. And I bet at the end of season, he has a good, long, a little, you know,
Starting point is 00:28:41 a cried. a good, solid, you know, I've been through a lot. And you're not out of the woods, yeah, I think it's like a five-year deal. When I know David Lee went through,
Starting point is 00:28:49 and he talks about all the time where it's like, you go and you go have cancer and you, quote, unquote, beat cancer. But like every time you're, like, kind of sick for the next five years, it's like, fuck, is this thing back? You know?
Starting point is 00:29:01 It's kind of crazy. And I think, I think that dude's gonna have a good cry. And here's why. I've been emotional lately. I'm an emotional little boy. I don't know what it is, but let me drink this water
Starting point is 00:29:11 that I'm not talking about. I bet that sounded fun. That sound weird in your headphones? Yeah, that didn't sound. That probably sounded like a no pause situation, didn't it? Very. Okay. So, like, obviously, ACL cancer is totally different things, right?
Starting point is 00:29:27 But it's still a traumatic experience. And when you go through a surgery, right, this is my first surgery besides getting my tonsils out. Like, I go and my body starts to start working on shit, right? Like, my body, I don't, I feel like a bag of dicks, which I think is going to be the reference from now on for my body. And then slowly but surely as those dicks start to start to, like, I don't, like, I feel like a bag of dicks, right? as those dicks start to leave my body, like I'm starting to gain movement. I'm starting to gain a little more strength. I'm starting to see less atrophy in my leg.
Starting point is 00:29:51 And the other day, I'm not going to, I'm not going to lie, I posted on Instagram. I was walking backwards. I was pulling sleds backwards. And there was like a point where I was like, I want to cry right now. Like it's, it was such an emotional thing for me because when you go through a surgery and your leg doesn't work at all, right? People are waiting on your hand and foot. My poor wife and mother-in-law and my poor kids don't understand what's going on.
Starting point is 00:30:13 I'm just laying on the couch. Can't move at all, right? Fast forward six weeks later. Now I'm walking around normal and I'm pulling three plates on a sled. And it's like, like there's not only like a physical trauma, there's emotional trauma to go with it. So I feel like, I don't know, me and Ron have been through a lot.
Starting point is 00:30:33 You know, we've been, we've been through a lot. And so here we are, dude. Another thing that really fucked me up, man. I might have to go sociopath mode because, this did screw this. I almost, I literally legit cried. It was two nights ago. I think it was the same day
Starting point is 00:30:50 it's pulling a sled. So there's more emotion shit. I'm watching this commercial. I don't know if it's or what it is, but this little girl is making Christmas ornaments. And she's putting them in an envelope and she's sending them off to God knows what, right?
Starting point is 00:31:03 But for some reason, their mailbox is like three miles away. So you see them getting their and they drive and the little girl drops it off in the mailbox to be sent away. And so you see it in the summertime It looks super hot outside. The next time you see them driving, it's fall. See, time is passing, right?
Starting point is 00:31:19 Time is going. We're always moving. And then the wintertime hits, and it's snowing outside. There's Christmas tree in that background when the girl's making an ornament. Mike and Harry for the boy now, all right? I'm telling you.
Starting point is 00:31:30 I fucking cried over this. And I've been cursing way too much, too. I've noticed that in the last pod. So this little girl is making the ornament, and the mom comes up and says, one more time. Do you want to do one more? Or something along those lines.
Starting point is 00:31:43 and the girls, yeah, I want to. So they get in their car and they drive to the mailbox, the three miles away mailbox. It must have a lot of land. And this little girl goes to go put it, gets out of the car to go put it in the mailbox
Starting point is 00:31:56 and send it off. But behind the mailbox is another tree that you didn't notice before, but now you noticed the tree and all the ornaments she was sending off to you don't know where yet are on the tree as if they reappeared. She sent them off,
Starting point is 00:32:09 but why would they be back here? And then here we go. the dad in an army outfit walks out from behind the tree. And you're just like, oh, I might do it now. I might cry right. No joke. And the mom and the daughter, like, they get so excited. They see like that.
Starting point is 00:32:29 That's a Christmas holiday spirit commercial. And I'll tell you what. I almost bought a thing today because of that. I almost went to the dealer and looked at him and he said, well, we can do some discounts. And I always said, don't about the discounts. all right it's for that little girl and her dad and they gotta probably try to explain to me that
Starting point is 00:32:47 sir you know that's that's acting right not acting on these heartstrings because that thing that thing tore me up dude that thing that thing definitely was a little bit of a tear jerker for me it was it was a lot so you know think what you want think what you want but
Starting point is 00:33:03 it's okay to get emotional this time of year you know what I'm saying it's okay to do that it looks like the boys deal with a little bit more a little bit more than maybe you guys are with your working legs you piece of shits And on that note, let's dive into another ad.

We do have a couple of things that we need to talk about that happened on the bus most recently in this last week. Everyone knows that the Paul brothers are fighting people, right? That Paul beat up, who do you beat up? Who's it?
Starting point is 00:35:29 Nate Robinson. Who's that? Old NBA player. Oh, oh, he was an athlete. Oh, yeah. See, I got to start following shit a little better. He won a dunk contest like three times. No way.
Starting point is 00:35:38 So this is an athletic cat. And this is Logan Paul? This is suicide force Logan. Or is it the Jake Paul? That was Jake Paul. Jake is the suicide forest guy. No, that is Logan Paul. Jake Paul beat up Nate Robinson.
Starting point is 00:35:49 So is Jake older or younger than Logan? Jake is younger. I remember them on Vine when it first came out. It was really, they were awesome. And then they were loved and then the suicide forest thing. I've never seen the video. Apparently it's fucked up. That was a dead person?
Starting point is 00:36:03 It's essentially a forest where everybody in either Japan or China. Japan, I think. Okay. And they all commit suicide there. So, and he went there. He, but it's okay to go there. There were bodies and stuff. And he took a video?
Starting point is 00:36:16 Oh, yeah. From what I believe. That's tough, dude. That's tough. So Jake beat this dude up. Correct. Jake is, and he's the one that took the video. No, Logan's the one that took the video.
Starting point is 00:36:28 Okay. So Jake Paul fights Nate Robinson. Yes. And he gives him that Cracker One Piece, dude. Put that thing. That's funny. I said Cracker One Piece. I actually didn't even notice that I told that joke just now.
Starting point is 00:36:40 He gives him that Cracker One Piece. That's stupid fucking joke Um His neck cracker one face dude And puts his ass down And the dude you see it like that's pretty cool Everything I didn't watch the fight But everyone says of the Tyson fight
Starting point is 00:36:58 Right it's never Roy Jones Jr. It's Tyson Of that fight it was the best thing of all And so apparently this kid named Billy Football And I don't know if I want to say his name Well I've already said it So Billy Football He is an interned
Starting point is 00:37:12 for a part of my take, who are, they've, we've talked about them on the show before, right? They've, we've gone up,
Starting point is 00:37:18 we've gone down, we've gone through it around. But, uh, Billy is like, I guess hell bent on fighting this cat, right? Now,
Starting point is 00:37:25 one of our interns, uh, CBD Jack, I don't know how it happened. It was definitely instigated by me and Will. It was after a pod. Um, and I'm,
Starting point is 00:37:37 we're sitting there talking and Garrett, um, our other intern, Garrett and Jack are really good friends, right, they're best friends. They live together, blah, blah, blah, blah. And Garrett is gassing Jack's ass up because Jack went to go work out at Booth Camp.
Starting point is 00:37:50 Sean Booth was actually in the pod. Shout out Sean Booth. Was just absolutely gassing Garrett up over and over and over again. Oh, I've seen him fight. He can beat people's ass, blah, blah, blah, blah. And then who brought up Billy football? Who brought that up? Because I didn't know who that was.
Starting point is 00:38:06 You might have. I think you did. Yeah. Hey, Garrett doesn't want to admit it. Garrett brings that, we'll say for the sake of argument, that he said it. Now we call CBD Jack after he gets done with this workout. They're FaceTiming. I end up FaceTiming Big Cat.
Starting point is 00:38:27 And Jack said something, I'm not going to put words in his mouth. He said something that to me, right, Jack cruised into my cerebellum and said to me, you need to call Big Cat and you need to tell him that they need to fight Billy Football. So I get on the phone Big Cat and he's, you know, chilling as Big Cat does. Just chilling on his couch. I don't know what that means.
Starting point is 00:38:48 But he's chilling. And I tell him, hey, listen, our intern wants to fight your intern. And without reacting, Big Cat just goes, all right, let's set it up. Oh, shit, okay. So I'm like, man, Gary,
Starting point is 00:39:01 I hope you really, you gasped your boy up, this, that, and the other. And then all of a sudden hell breaks out, right? Like, Big Cat sub-tweets us by saying, I'm not taking any fight right now
Starting point is 00:39:11 for Billy football. Billy football really wants to fight. He wants to fight Jake Paul or Logan Paul? He wants to fight Jake Paul. And Jake Paul is the one that beat up Nate Robinson. Correct. Okay. Now, he's super hell bent on that.
Starting point is 00:39:28 And Big Cat says, we're not taking fights right now, blah, blah, blah, blah. Obviously, I have to tweet back at that because it's fun in games now. Now, this Billy Football kid starts tagging Jack saying he's going to fucking beat his ass, all this different stuff. You come to the New York place.
Starting point is 00:39:44 anytime. And things have gone crazy. Because Billy's speaking on both sides of his mouth. One minute, he's not fighting nobody, except for one of the Paul brothers. I'm not going to try to ask again which one it does. And then in the other mouth, he's like, I'll beat this kid's ass, no problem. Now, I start, I don't even know what Billy football is. I start looking up this cat. Dude's got some meat on them. You know what I'm saying? Dude definitely hits the cratin. He definitely eats the Kraten. He definitely eats the Joe Rogan's podcast, right? Like, that's the kind of cat he is. And I respect the shit out of it.
Starting point is 00:40:11 He's saying he beat Jack's ass. I don't know. I really don't know if he would actually beat Jack's ass or not. I do know that, you know, I'm willing to bet on that fight, though. You know, as much as the NFLPA will let me. I believe it's $250. I believe I'm willing to bet that much
Starting point is 00:40:27 that maybe Jack wins. That's what I'm willing to bet. Maybe Jack wins. And now Billy's got no fight because right, one of the Paul brothers is fighting Floyd Mayweather, correct? The older one, Logan. Now Logan is. Okay, so Jake Paul beats up Nick Robinson and Logan gets the better fight.
Starting point is 00:40:44 Listen to me If you don't like the Paul brothers Because of the suicide force thing I understand that completely I don't have an opinion on them Because I've never met them And really seen anything other than some of their funny finds But these kids, dudes, they're my age or older
Starting point is 00:41:03 Are little marketing geniuses The kid is getting a fight with the best Arguably one of the best boxers of all time Floyd Mayweather an exhibition match. It's unbelievable. And it's going to be some patty cake bullshit that people are going to be underwhelmed by,
Starting point is 00:41:22 but they're both going to make $100 million plus dollars. So shout out the Paul brothers, dude. Shout out the Paul brothers for absolutely killing it, dude. I just, I cannot believe this guy's going to fight Floyd Mayweather. And I don't know. Like the dude, I saw a picture of Floyd, and he's a smaller cat, right, defensive boxer. And I'm going to speak out of my mouth
Starting point is 00:41:43 that I don't know right now. He's a defensive cat. Like, right? No one can touch him. Super annoying to fight because he can bob and weave and move and do all that, right? He's not Rocky Bobo's.
Starting point is 00:41:52 He's going to take a thousand punches in the chin and still win. But I looked at this Logan guy, and he's got some trap about him. You know what I'm saying? He's got some meat in the chest. I don't think, I think if you got these two, like legit backyard brawling,
Starting point is 00:42:06 like hey, your biting's allowed type shit, you know what I'm saying? I'm thinking Logan wins this fight. I just, he's basically. bigger. He can put your hands on him. You know what I'm saying? Like, I don't, how fast
Starting point is 00:42:17 is Floyd? Can he run away? You know what I'm saying? Floyd's a smaller cat. Now, I don't want to disrespect Money Mayweather because the dude's, like I said, he's undefeated boxer. He's one of the greatest of all time. I just think that, you know, I just think that Logan Paul, if they did like a, what's the
Starting point is 00:42:33 Kimbo, they did a Kimbo slice backyard fight? Like, I think Logan's winning that fight because shit's like there's no holds bar, right? Boxing is a very tactical, technical sport with the heeing in the high when he punch. I don't know how to fight at all. I don't.
Starting point is 00:42:48 I don't. I know how to like side punch me. I know how to like knock kids out on the side when they're being disrespectful, right? But I haven't been to fights since I was in like seventh grade. So I don't know the first thing about fighting. But this is a, this is good shit that people are going to turn into, I might even tune into it. People are going to tune into this and it's going to be, oh, dude, it's going to be amazing. It's going to be hilarious.
Starting point is 00:43:09 The letdown, I believe that's going to happen, right? I don't know when the fight is. I don't know what's going to be. going to happen, but I do know that it's going to be a major letdown when it happens because it's an exhibition match. People are going to be like, oh, he's going to knock his ass out. And oh, dude, if Logan Paul knocked out Floyd Mayweather, the uproar in the world, if Logan Paul can knock out Floyd, and like I said, I don't know anything about them. I don't know anything about this dude. I just know that these guys are absolute marketing geniuses. If Logan Paul beats up Floyd Mayweather,
Starting point is 00:43:40 cancel Christmas, right? It's done. The game is. It's these dudes are now projected into something you just like like a Rhonda Rousey when she's at the top of us get her game type shit like that's the kind of level like Connor McGregor now type shit you know they're they'll be like Dwayne the Rock Johnson but hated like but but you know what I'm saying like Dwayne's the most loved other than a spectrum which we've been doing a lot of spectrum things today that's where the Paul brothers will be but they'll sell anything they'll be able to do a tequila company just like Dwayne that kind of shit that's the kind of shit we're talking about dude it's
Starting point is 00:44:13 crazy. It absolutely blows my mind how those guys can do that, dude. It's crazy. And now, I don't know, I don't know what's to come anymore. Oh, you're going to say? I'm just going to say, think about all the professional boxers that would love that opportunity, and this kid got it
Starting point is 00:44:30 because his little brother beat up Nate Robinson. Dude. No, has he fought somebody before, Logan? And he pounds cats. I believe so, yeah. How big is Logan Paul? I want to say he's like 6-2? Let me look that up, bro. Oh, he's a, he's a dollar cat. Yeah, he's 1 and 0 right now in professional fights. I believe he beat up another
Starting point is 00:44:51 like YouTube guy or something like that. And you saw you saw Mike Tyson comments on how those guys have saved boxing. Yeah. Yeah, he's six two. All right. How old is he? 25. Oh, he's young. He's four years younger than me. Oh, these guys are geniuses, dude. And he's the older one. So the younger one, Jake Paul, I think he's like early 20s or something like that. Oh my God. Both guys, both kids are worth $100 million. and you might be listening to this fuming at the mouth, right? But the suicide forest thing. Yeah, and I haven't seen the video.
Starting point is 00:45:24 It's probably fucked up. It's probably not something I would want to watch anyway. But this is D-16. Look at how tall is Floyd Mayweather? 5-8. Bro. They're probably not in the same weight class, are they? No shot.
Starting point is 00:45:39 No. Right? Floyd is 5-8 and he fights at 150. And what does Logan Paul fight at? Gotta be like, I don't even let me look at that real quick. if I could bet on fights, I would bet on this one, and I'd probably bet on Floyd, because, you know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:45:56 1 and 0 versus 51 and 0. It's just kind of crazy. 200 pounds. He's 50 pounds heavier. And the dude's got, he ain't fat. Like, there's no fat on this kid. You know what I'm saying? That doesn't mean he can throw a punch.
Starting point is 00:46:08 If you have the ability to knock somebody out, I mean, I don't know how you're going to touch Floyd. I don't know how you're going to do it. After watching him, like Connor McGregor, who, Connor McGarer is a, you know, one of the best stand-up UFC fighters of all time who has a striking, you know, can strike from a distance, can belay the power.
Starting point is 00:46:27 Right, like I'm asking like I'm talking about now. It's ridiculous. But if you, you know, and Floyd buried Connor in a way from just like tiring him out because he couldn't touch him after a while. And Connor, it's his first fight. You know, you put them in a UFC octagon. It's over in the first round. Connor would just absolutely dummy.
Starting point is 00:46:48 Floyd Mayweather. Is this the fight right here? Yeah, this is Logan Paul's fight. Handslow. I love that he's rock. Oh, nice little left hook there, dude. So he's rocking the red, white, and blue shorts, dude. I like, I got to love it, dude. These guys are, they're tugging on your heartstrings.
Starting point is 00:47:10 They're figuring out that just him wearing red, white, and blue shorts. He, it's genius. It's genius the marketing. I'm not getting a ring with anybody, dude. I got CT on the way. I don't need more of that shit. That's crazy. But those guys, ma'am.
Starting point is 00:47:26 Did he knock them out? Let me look real quick. What qualifies you to be a YouTuber? Yeah, people make millions and millions of dollars off YouTube, right? We got to do that. He's one to know by total knockout. So, yeah, he knocked him out. Total knockout or technical knockout?
Starting point is 00:47:54 Technical knockout, yeah. So they waved it off the through in the white towel type thing. He didn't knock him out cold like his brother did. Yeah. I think you give Jake to fight, right? Why wouldn't you give Jake? Is Logan the more popular? Yeah, he's been around longer, I'm sure.
Starting point is 00:48:09 But Jake Paul's trying. He called out McGregor after his win the other day against Nate Robinson. If you get McGregor to fight him, dude, and you get Logan, dude, shout out. It's over, dude. Like, good for them. Good for the Paul brothers. I don't care what your opinion is on them.
Starting point is 00:48:26 Good for them for being marketing geniuses and shame on you for not. of it first, right? Like, that's just how the cookie crumbles, right? That's it from Bruce Almighty. So I don't know, dude. That's crazy. The whole thing's just crazy. Let's do, uh, let's do some current events. That is wild, dude.

Starting point is 00:50:26 We got two files. Pause it. I've never, this is my summer de goes, I've never seen a Mexican ref before, dude. Am I like, where is this? This is in Arizona? This is in Texas.
Starting point is 00:50:40 Where in the Texas? Edinburgh High. Is that, like, I've never, uh, seen the Mexican ref before. And that, yeah, that's just that observation, right?
Starting point is 00:50:53 That's all that, that's all that turns into. Go ahead. So this kid, he's, uh, he gets ejected, right? Oh, yeah, definitely. Number 88. And that sports with high conduct, number 88 on the defense.
Starting point is 00:51:05 Oh, two. Gone. Kid starts clapping. That kid probably sucks. Number six, you're probably better football. Too small. Oh, shit. Okay.
Starting point is 00:51:21 What? All right, this kid, 88, first off, you think his little skinny tight ends coming out. Dude, this kid's a little thick, right? He's got to meet behind him. And he goes... and absolutely dummies the ref. And then what are the other players doing? Like, as he related to someone else in the other team?
Starting point is 00:51:45 If I, if I'm playing a game and I see a ref get dominated like that, I'm probably laughing. I'm probably turning around and going back to my, I'm not going to go fight for that ref. I don't owe him anything. But that is wild. Is that the same ref talking to the coach right there? No, I believe he's like laying down somewhere.
Starting point is 00:52:04 because that was the head ref that got knocked. That's right, white hat. This kid, dude, what do you think, like this kid's got some mommy, daddy, she's got to have some issues going on, you know what I'm saying? Because if you just get a joke to him in a game,
Starting point is 00:52:16 you punch a kid or something like that, shit happens. I've never in my life thought to myself. I need to go declet this ref ever. And this dude, this fucking kid, he got expelled, didn't he?
Starting point is 00:52:27 He probably got expelled. I hope they didn't. Did he do anything to the football team? Say that again? Use the thing. You got choice. I'm pretty sure with some form of assault. You're lying.
Starting point is 00:52:39 No, for real. I mean, that makes sense. I don't know why I would be so surprised by that. Yeah. The kid just absolutely, you think you can't get in trouble when you're in a football uniform, right? It's like, okay, the game's over. I'm calm down now. Yeah, oh, it's just a ref.
Starting point is 00:52:51 Yeah, it's just a ref, right? He's not a real human being. Yeah, who at referee charged with assault. Team removed from place. Oh, so the team, the team has now been kicked. See, that's where, why would the team be removed from playoffs? there's probably something I'm not understanding for the kid not to be in it.
Starting point is 00:53:11 You know what I'm saying? For the team not to be in it because the kid, it's like, okay, kid's a bad egg, he's probably getting expelled, right? You're wearing 88. I don't know how good the kid is. Was the kid any good at football?
Starting point is 00:53:22 Not sure about that, but I read somewhere where he was like a state champion wrestler. Oh, he's, so he knows the body. My dad always told me growing up you never fight a wrestler. You go fight whoever you want, never fight a wrestler.
Starting point is 00:53:34 Those kids know the body, dude. They'll take you down, pressure points and all that shit. That's crazy. I can't, that bums me out that the school was moved from the playoffs. Now you're a scoot over. You know my seniors are probably on that team? Let's say it's a big school. 25, 30 seniors on the team.
Starting point is 00:53:50 Like that, those kids, it's over. The game's over for them. They'll never play collegiate football ever again. I mean, did they lose that game? I'm assuming they won it, right? Or was the game done right after that? I would think if they're going to kick them out of the playoffs, They probably into the game right there too.
Starting point is 00:54:09 Hey, that blows me away. Man, that's a bummer. That kid just ruined a lot of people's senior years. In the playoffs, man, I can't believe that, Evan. That's a bummer. I mean, good, you got charged with assault. Good.
Starting point is 00:54:23 Hopefully the kid learns a lesson. Hopefully it's a first strike situation. Hopefully, I doesn't have to go to jail for a while, but good, good. You know, shit happens, dude. You make mistakes. I've made mistakes. I've assaulted people before. Got it in trouble for it, and we moved on.
Starting point is 00:54:36 And you learn, right? It's not like we're all perfect, but the kid needs to learn a lesson. But it just sucks for the other kids that didn't, nothing happened to them. They didn't do anything wrong. And you guys, and then they got to go, they can't play football now. If I'm a kid on that team, I'm beating that kid's ass. And if he's bigger than me, I'm getting three of my buddies, we're going to beat that kid's ass. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:54:55 Get three of your buddies, go beat that kid's ass. Now, don't actually do that, because the last thing I need is for you guys go beat that kid's ass and then I have to get like subcharged. Do you get that, you know what I'm saying? Like a sub-tweet, but subcharged? I don't need those kind of issues right now. I got two kids. But to watch a high school kid do that, it's like, okay, charge the kid, give him probation, some sort of community service, have him pay for what happened to the guy, whatever real injury
Starting point is 00:55:20 had, not like, oh, my neck, no, no, no, no, no, the real shit that the MRI shows. You pay for that through your probation, you know what I'm saying? And we just move on. And that let the kids play. And that's all, that's all that should have happened. And that should have been done. That should have been the end of whatever. But I don't know.
Starting point is 00:55:40 That kind of goes back to, that seems like a little too much the more I think about it. You said like, not the kid. Do whatever you want the kid, right? But you don't kill the whole flock. You take out one. I don't know. If you disagree with me, tell me you disagree with me.
Starting point is 00:55:55 Because I don't see why those kids shouldn't be able to play football. You know what I'm saying? Those kids didn't do nothing wrong. That's a bummer, man. High school football is the most fun too. My high school is in a state championship this year. this week. So that'll be cool.
Starting point is 00:56:07 Shout out Chaparral Firebirds, man. You guys, I hope you guys go win. I think it's like, it's Highland, Highland Hawks or something like that. What else we got? Michigan, Ohio State game
Starting point is 00:56:19 this weekend canceled due to COVID. Good. Just fucking good, dude. Like that is, here's the tweet from Michigan. Count it as a win, dude.
Starting point is 00:56:32 Because there was not a fucking chance. I hate saying, that, right? And I just talked about fair weather fans. It's, so who had the, who had the tests? Like that, I'll just talk about how I feel. And then you can tell me what, like, those kids, they should have been able to play that game. You know, I don't know how many tests they had, blah, blah, blah, blah.
Starting point is 00:56:57 The whole COVID thing, it's too hairy for me to, for me to be like, well, they should have, they shouldn't have, you know, it's just like, football is, is a good thing for kids. I believe, I believe people, like football is a much better sport than people believe. But Michigan, they win in that game. Looks like Michigan was the team with all the positive tests. The culprit. So now does Michigan take the L? Not sure.
Starting point is 00:57:20 I mean, they canceled the game. So didn't they cancel this past weekend as well against Maryland? That's right. They did cancel that game. And I don't know if they would beat Maryland. Shit. I mean, things have gone super downhill. So now they're doing bowl games.
Starting point is 00:57:33 I think they said on the NCAA that you, You don't have to win six games like they used to to make a bull game this year based in the circumstances. I don't disagree with that at all. I think that's a good deal if you're going to play those bowl games. Now, if you're going to get kids wearing more tread off their tires, just get their shit canceled. Just let the kids go and break then. You know what I'm saying? Let the kids go training for the draft.
Starting point is 00:57:54 Let the kids go back and do their school, whatever it is. But it's like, if you're going to do a bowl game, do the bowl game. Because then it becomes too hairy, it becomes too much of a pain in the ass. I wonder what the Ohio State kids feel about how they feel about this. They probably obviously wanted to play. They're a damn good football team. Like they are,
Starting point is 00:58:12 Ohio State is so relevant. They are so relevant in the football world. Like, I don't know. Like the, you know, the movie Warriors? Like Ohio, the Big Ten sends Ohio State that gang to go down to fight. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:58:26 That's the kind of shit we're talking about. That's how good Ohio State is. And if you're a Michigan fan, which you probably are, some of you probably are, you know, get mad at me if you want, man. That's just the reality of the situation we live in, right? I don't want to live in a false reality with you if we're going to just pretend like Michigan is relevant right now.
Starting point is 00:58:43 Because they're not. You're not relevant right now, Michigan. You weren't relevant when I was there. Maybe one year we went to the Sugar Bowl and beat Virginia Tech in like a triple overtime. And our kicker, you know, had that epic line at the end of the game in a press conference by him winning the field goal kick talking about naked girls in the beach or girls a bikini or something like that as a killer line. But that's the only year you're relevant. Other than that, like you had to go back to Jake Long, Chad Henney type of, Mike Hart, those dudes. That's when Michigan was relevant.
Starting point is 00:59:16 And it breaks my heart because I went there. I gave that school everything I had. And, you know, you haven't won a Big Ten championships since 2004, 2006, whatever it was. And you're just, you're still caught up on Bo Schemacher, who's an amazing coach. I never got the opportunity to meet him. but there's got to be a point where you where you you need to look to the future and I don't know if that's coaching
Starting point is 00:59:39 I don't know I don't know what the deal is man because I'm not a coach right I talk about all the time I don't know what I'm talking about I don't I'm this is one man's humble opinion and Raible and I jokingly make a bet every single year and I'm and Stretch his secretary his secretary he's a secretary and uh I just he you know
Starting point is 01:00:00 they stretch texted me and was like oh thank God for you the game was canceled. And you know, you're damn right. Because I would have lost money on them, man. I would have lost money on Michigan. It just sucks. It sucks to, you know, you want for the sake of college football, Michigan is a team that you want to be relevant, you know,
Starting point is 01:00:19 just like a perfect example, and this might talk a couple more heartstrings. A perfect example of Michigan in the Bay 10 is Tennessee and SEC. Relevant, historically great football team who has done so many great things. You're not anymore. No one's looking at Tennessee, you're in and you're out going, you guys got it.
Starting point is 01:00:41 And thank God Jack's not here to hear me say this. That'll bring his little heart. But Michigan's that way, Michigan and Tennessee are one of the same, historically great and just didn't have the opportunity to get it done. And that's just, you know, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam.
Starting point is 01:00:57 That's life. That's just what it is, dude. Now, what do you do? Like now as an AD, what do you do? Right? Because your season's over unless you know, play the bowl game, which I don't know if you do that, right? You have a bunch of kids of COVID.
Starting point is 01:01:10 You do, you don't. Who cares? You know, it's not like, it's not going to be like where you go, hey, we're playing the Outback Bowl. We're going to go to Tampa. We're going to enjoy the week. We're going to be by the beach. We're going to enjoy a new situation.
Starting point is 01:01:20 Here's some per diem every single day, that kind of bullshit. Gifting sweets. It doesn't happen this year, right? Because the COVID, at least I assume, like it's not going to happen. It's just kind of crazy. right? And so do you even play the bull game? Do you even do that? Or, you know, does Harbaal stay? That's a question that you guys, you know, who's the head coach for Tennessee?
Starting point is 01:01:41 Jeremy Pruitt. Jeremy Pruitt. Does he stay? Do they, you know, because I do listen to some of the local new sports networks here now that I'm not playing because, you know, when you're playing, you want to keep the blinders on. So you don't really listen that type of stuff. But I've been listening quite a bit. And it sounds like people aren't very happy with that cat. Now, I don't know him, right? So it's unfair for me. I don't know. what his recruiting has been like. I heard the guy's a great recruiter,
Starting point is 01:02:04 but he hasn't developed the kids that he wants to develop or needs to develop. And they're just not, they're just not getting it done. So what does Tennessee and Michigan do, right? You have to draw the line in the sand. Do you want, are you going to be able to go out and find a better coach that's going to be able to develop players? Maybe they go a switch.
Starting point is 01:02:21 Maybe Jeremy Pruitt goes to Michigan and maybe Harbaal goes to Tennessee. I don't know, dude. I really have no idea. I tell you what, that's one of the more underrated things. is the development of players. That's what we missed out on when I was there too. Like some cats just,
Starting point is 01:02:36 you know how many five-star dudes we got at Michigan that are so great and just stayed the same? Like, didn't step, boom, boom, boom, do the Michigan freshman, always better as a sophomore, always good as a year, always great as a senior. It just wasn't there. We just didn't have it, ma'am. And that sucks.
Starting point is 01:02:54 Hey, you know what I'm saying? You just got to figure that shit out, Michigan, because it's tough. It's tough for me to go and text guys on Saturday That have played there in the past And, you know It's a shit talk show all of us You know, we're like, what the fuck are these guys doing?
Starting point is 01:03:11 You know, and it's not the kids, dude I tell you what, and if you're a Michigan football player And you happen to run by this podcast, I respect the shit out of you guys, man. Like, it's, your guys' win record was way better than when I was there. It's not like, you know what I'm saying? It's just when you guys play the big teams,
Starting point is 01:03:25 we don't win. We don't win. And I'm putting myself in there because I don't want you to take this as me being disrespectful, it's just looking at things from a, like, a realistic perspective. That's what this shit turns into. So, I don't know, man. I'm not going to change anything by talking about it.
Starting point is 01:03:40 I'm just kind of more venting as myself because, you know, you go to a school, you put your heart and soul into something for four and a half years. You want to leave it better than you came. That's what makes me so proud to be a Tennessee Titan is, you know, you come here and it's a shit show, right? It's awful. Not saying guys like Michael Ruse didn't do a great job and stuff. But that was one of the greatest tackles in Tennessee Titans history.
Starting point is 01:04:00 But you go there and it's a shit show. You're 2 and 14, 3 and 13. And I was a part of something that got better. And that is special to be a part of. I don't feel that way about Michigan. I don't feel like I, you know, got we, like I left it in better hands than I got there. You know, not saying I'm the only person, but it just is one of those things. And it's hard to look at things from a realistic perspective.
Starting point is 01:04:24 Because fuck, man. Nobody wants to look in the mirror. Nobody wants to look in the mirror and see a negative reality sometimes. But here we are. Here we are, Michigan. You know, hate me if you want. Don't care. Do you want.
Starting point is 01:04:37 You know, political philosophy. Did you want. So whatever. What's next? Yeah, dig down in Dallas goes number one. What the fuck does that mean? Not really sure, but let's click the link and see what it says. Okay.
Starting point is 01:04:52 Dick down in Dallas. Trey Lewis. Dick down. Oh, this is a song. Yeah. Went number one on the country charts, apparently. I love it. I hope this is good.
Starting point is 01:05:04 We got to do Lane Johnson. Yeah. You about ready for Lane? Yeah. Cool. This last read fires me up because this organization was put together by my good friend, Taylon Luan, who also partnered on it with Haley Hubbard. Talon is the boy Taylor's wife.

Starting point is 01:07:20 We're headed back to Philly right now. Oh, you guys. Damn. Me and Nate Geary. Nate. Nick Geary. I like that, dude. Oh, shit.
Starting point is 01:07:28 Let me intro you real quick, and then we'll pop this shit off. That's impressive. Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, it's not always just me now, all right? I know Will is gone, but here's what we're going to do. Lane Johnson, the three-time pro-war, one-time all-pro cat, stud at a Philadelphia here with me on Bus with the Boys. Talk about some hot, hot heat that's been going down in Philly that we're going to get down to today. But first, Lane, you had surgery. And I know you were, was it your ankle you had surgery on?
Starting point is 01:08:00 Yes, sir. Man, so, and you were on the podcast. You're kind of breaking up on me. See, God damn. He doesn't bring it up. Yeah, no, I hear you now. Oh, you can hear you now. All right.
Starting point is 01:08:11 Well, cut that part out. We might not cut that part out. What, uh, would you, what, what happened with your ankle? Is it the same ankle that you were dealing with this offseason when you were on the bus earlier? Yep. So, ended up getting tightrope surgery. Uh, three weeks before the season, we tried to do the two, a kind of program. Um, so I came back in three weeks, which I probably shouldn't have.
Starting point is 01:08:33 And tried playing through, uh, through the year. But I ended up, like, tearing apart of my deltoe ligament. And so they had to go in and repair that and then redo the whole tight ropes in different spots. So I felt like I was on a wobbly shopping cart for most of the year. But, yeah, basically the thing was just so loose. It was starting to cave in. But Mr. Bob Anderson took care of me and should be back in about four months. Oh, four months is not that bad at all, dude.
Starting point is 01:09:04 And you're dealing, you were doing that before. Yeah, so I'm done. You're doing with that before and now, now you're back, feeling good, doing better. Now you're going to get on a flight right now. You get on a flight. Are you worried about that thing blowing up at all on you? I'm not. They gave me some feel-good stuff for the flight, so should be taken care of.
Starting point is 01:09:24 Me and a white snake over here. White snake. Look at the boy. I like it. I saw you guys holding hands, Doug. Is that before or after surgery, though? Was after surgery? It was before and after.
Starting point is 01:09:36 Before and after. I got you got to hold hands all the way. dude um from the from a all the way through from a philadelphia eagle standpoint man well give me your perspective about what's what's been going on there because start off the year and the o line right you're the dude you're the cat they bring back peters for one more year they say it'll probably come back for 10 more years but they bring out peters and now like some injuries have happened some stuff and
Starting point is 01:09:58 you know i had we had the problems with the titans with the o line seems like a lot of sacks are going on now and now your boy carson wince what what happened do you think carson wins the situation has to do with the o line or is this a Carson's issue just because it's Carson? I mean, it's kind of a whole variety of issues, but I mean, we lost Brooks before the season even started. And then week two, we lost Isaac. And JP was trying to play guard for a little bit.
Starting point is 01:10:25 And he ended up getting hurt in training camp. So JP had to move back to left. So really throughout the first, what, 12 games, it's been, you know, like 11 different, you know, whole old line starting groups. So a lot of young players, came in. They haven't really played a whole lot. So other than that, I mean, it's been pretty consistent of really, I guess, our
Starting point is 01:10:51 offensive, just rhythm isn't very good. There's times where we'll be efficient, like we'll be efficient in the run game. As far as like, you know, our passing game goes, it just feels like it's just inconsistent in the rhythms off as far as, you know, what we're doing. So a lot of, you know, a lot of sacks are on the O line and somewhere on Carson. I'll say about 50-50. Wow, 50. I mean, it does. People don't realize a lot that it takes everybody right in protection.
Starting point is 01:11:17 Why receivers got to get open, quarterback's getting out, and all the line's got to protect. That's what they don't realize, man. It's a whole, you know, culmination of everybody. Receivers run the right routes, right timing. And there's so much that goes into it. And, I mean, you know that. It's just how it goes.
Starting point is 01:11:35 But, you know, having all these different all of its line matchups or, you know, lineups for the, past 12 weeks has been, you know, different guy up every week. So from, you know, standpoint, it's hard to get comfortable, I guess. When it comes to Jalen Hertz and Carson Wentz's situation, now Carson Wentz two, three years ago as a MVP, having MVP caliber season, tears his ACL, unfortunately, later in the season, and he has boarding a Super Bowl that year.
Starting point is 01:12:03 But, you know, from then, and I don't know shit about quarterback, right? So this is me talking out of my ass, people saying he's taking steps down. I don't watch you guys because you guys aren't in the same division nor in the same conference. So I don't watch a whole lot of the Eagles. How do you think Carson knowing him as a person? How do you think he's dealing with this situation being the backup quarterback now? And what do you think it can happen in the future? I mean, I think far as, I mean, handling it, how he's handled situations all year.
Starting point is 01:12:30 I mean, he's been under fire. And really, I think he's handled it well professionally. I mean, obviously it's not the situation he wants to be in. But, you know, as far as being a team player, what's best for his team, You know, he's that kind of guy. That's what kind of character guy is. Yeah, man, it's just a weird situation. We haven't really done anything, you know, really all year,
Starting point is 01:12:50 offensively, we have some points where we shine, but really it's been really inconsistent. And so, you know, I think you may watch something in the game the other day. You get a new quarterback like that who can, you know, dual read, do some different stuff. It makes the defense do different things. So maybe it may open up the run game now because they may have to honor the zone read more.
Starting point is 01:13:11 from the quarterback standpoint. And then, you know, if a play breaks down, he's able to run and get a few yards. So with Jalen, you know, I think the more he plays is better he's going to do. I think this week will be the first, you know, full week he's prepping as a starter instead of, you know, taking second team reps and then getting thrown into the game. So, you know, I think that'll be a good situation for him this week.
Starting point is 01:13:34 But he's mostly been getting second team reps, you know, all year. And then we put him in games, you know, a few times, a few couple series. of games or for the past few games. Yeah, last year, when we were going through everything, I had that PED thing. So I was running with the twos with Ryan Tannahill. And so we're playing. And everyone's kind of figuring out towards camp, hey, Ryan can, Ryan can sling this thing.
Starting point is 01:13:56 What's the deal? So obviously what happened in week six and the way that Ryan played and has continued to play, do you, what did you see from, from Hertz? Is it Hertz or Hurts or Huron? Hertz. Right? Hertz. Hertz.
Starting point is 01:14:07 What have you seen from him in camp? and do you expect that level of success that like Tannenhill had coming out or is it going to be a little different based on the injuries and stuff like that? You know, I really don't know what to expect. I mean, from what I've seen in practice and in training camp, he throws a really good ball. He's super athletic and he makes good decisions. But really, I mean, it's kind of a weird situation. I guess like, you know, you have with Marriota and Tannahill. I mean, you really don't, from my perspective now, I really don't know what's going to happen.
Starting point is 01:14:36 But as far as, you know, taking it serious and putting all the work in, Jaylon's done that since he's been here. I think Carson has done a good job, you know, being by example, all those quarterbacks, you know, nonstop workers. Yeah, but really, I just think it's, you know, when you get somebody new, the defense may not know what to expect. So you see that guys like Lamar Jackson, it takes a while for the league to catch up to some players. You know, they may have a superb year, one year, and then, you know, it takes a while to catch up to them. But, you know, they got the Saints this week. You know, they're rocking and rolling. They got a really good defense.
Starting point is 01:15:11 Backs against the wall. So if there's a time to get anything going, any type of sparks going, you know, this is a week. So with really nothing to lose. And you guys have done that in the past, right? Obviously, when Carson got hurt, backs her against the wall. And I'm going to win a Super Bowl with the coach you have now. So that's, it doesn't sound like you guys have, you guys have been in that situation before. It sounds like you guys are going to, you know, doesn't seem like it's that hard of a thing for you guys to do back against the wall type fight.
Starting point is 01:15:34 scratch and crawl off the kind of thing yeah and nscee is just so we're just so good this year it's really competitive so it's the most competitive league yep you know if you win five games hell you may be in the playoffs so that's that's where we're at taylor where do you guys stand at now in the playoff in the playoff run what's what's are you guys are you guys in first or third think we're in third we were in first for a while and uh we know we had that tie with Cincinnati and so we were a game maybe a game and a half ahead of guys and then over the past two weeks we kind of let the Giants and the Reds, or not the Redskins, the football team, rather catch up to us.
Starting point is 01:16:08 So I think they're, I'm not sure who's one or two out of them, but I know that we're third right now. We're flying third. Yeah, but you guys are still in the driver's team, man. You guys can go win a couple games. Definitely the Washington football team. Beating the Steelers is definitely a kick in the nuts, definitely in the divisional race. Man, no, I don't think anybody expected that to happen.
Starting point is 01:16:25 I think the Steelers either that, though. Like, it takes the edge off of them where they don't have to be perfect. Yeah. You get beat by a team that's not expected to beat you. you at least, you know, may give you an extra chip on your shoulder head into the playoffs. Getting, yeah, no doubt. Having, I mean, I think Eric Ebron tweeted about that today how it was, you know, they needed that type of situation. Let's say the Eagles don't make the playoffs.
Starting point is 01:16:47 Yeah. Who's winning the Super Bowl this year? So you're out of it, right? Like, just so you don't play by them. Yep. I mean, it's hard to bet against the Chiefs. And then, you know, really, you have a guy like Aaron Rogers. too may sneak in there too.
Starting point is 01:17:05 He's the guy. It's kind of a dark horse, so I'm saying maybe these two teams. Yep, definitely left out the Titans in that thing, but I won't hold it against you. It's a possibility. It's all right. People sleeping on us forever, buddy. Temporetic over there? They just stay sleeping on you?
Starting point is 01:17:21 It's a temperate, dude. It's the top-notch one, too, man. It's all good. You know what people don't realize is that Tannenhill was, I know he's a Big 12 receiver, or first team all-B-12 at receiver for like two years? Yeah. People don't really realize that, what kind of athlete he is. No, I asked him before.
Starting point is 01:17:37 I was like, you think he'd still play a game at receiver? He goes, yeah, I think I could play one. He said the lateral. The lateral is not as what it used to be, but that's straight line speed. He can take off on folks now. He's sleeping. You know what's funny? You know what's funny is that Josh McCallum, who was 41 or 40 last year when he played with us.
Starting point is 01:17:55 He played, I guess when he was with Detroit. He played a game at receiver. He should go check out the highlights. It's pretty entertaining. Dude, Josh McHaree, he was, was he on practice squad for a little bit with you guys? Yeah, this year and he got picked up by the Texans. So he was at the house. I know he's coaching the son in high school football or he had a good dude going.
Starting point is 01:18:14 Let's just say that. Yeah, I heard about that. I do want to hear about it before I let you go because so he's on practice squad for the Philadelphia Eagles, but he didn't have to be at Philadelphia. He could stay in Texas or wherever he's from and coach his kid. Yeah, it was like, you know, for an emergency situation, kind of like what, We didn't want what happened to the Broncos happened to us with a quarterback situation. So that was kind of the reasoning behind it.
Starting point is 01:18:36 So, but we, I guess a few weeks ago, he ended up going to the Texans. So he switched sides on us. And he's got to be in Houston? Yeah. He lives there in Jacksonville, which is kind of close to Dallas. Yeah. Yeah, that's not too far. A few hours.
Starting point is 01:18:51 So he's got a good gig. He's got a damn good gig going. Good for him, man. Happy for him. He's got another year under the belt, 41 years old crushing a dude. And next time you have anything happened to you, we got to go into the knife. Tell the Philadelphia's not be cheap and get you the jet.
Starting point is 01:19:06 My God, I can't believe you're flying commercial right now. It's ridiculous. I just hope I'm in first. I mean, if I'm not, at least kind of get an exit row. Yeah, get that exit row piece. I got this big scooter. We've got to have somewhere to put it.
Starting point is 01:19:19 Hey, how dead is that airport? I haven't been in airports since this whole COVID thing. Man, there's a, I mean, we're in Green Bay, Wisconsin right now. There's probably six people in this whole airport. That's where you, that's where you went to get surgery. is Green Bay, Wisconsin? Yeah, so actually, me and Nate bummed the ride up here on Saturday with the team and then ended up do like a consultation Sunday.
Starting point is 01:19:38 Then we had surgery yesterday. No way. Yeah. That is funny, dude. You're going back. You go back to Philly now? Back to Philly now. And now are you going to stay in Philly and do your rehab there?
Starting point is 01:19:49 Are you going to go back home? I'll probably go back home for a little bit. Yeah. And then, you know, I don't know, OTAs. I don't know if that's going to happen this year. Usually around that time, you start, you know, coming back and. rehab him, but who knows, man. Nobody knows what's going to happen.
Starting point is 01:20:03 You and I both know that missing OTAs is never a bad thing. Never a bad thing. Never a bad thing. Especially at this point in our career. No question, dude. I'll tell you, I hope you get healthy. Next time you get in a flight to go home, use a jet, you have a fat, fat contract, so I'm proud of you, happy for you, dude.
