We'll be brief about this thing because I didn't see it in actuality. I watched the highlight.
Starting point is 00:00:57 facts saw it in the other room. I'm hearing every bit of it as he's screaming and reads telling me out I'm losing. I'm hemorrhaging cash and that sort of thing. We're going to talk about this game and then move on to our regular Sunday night, Monday morning programming. We're going to have Andrew Hawkins joining me tonight to talk Browns, talk Steelers, Ravens, talk about taunting some other stuff. But we got all our awards or whatever you want to call them as well.
Starting point is 00:01:25 I'm not going to finish it. Yeah. because I know that there's some misophoniacs out there. Michael K. Williams tribute at the beginning of that Ravens game in Baltimore, that has to send some chills down your spine there. And the fact that they got the win, it is 1230 in the a.m., your today hour early this morning. It's all the same.
Starting point is 00:02:37 Sunday night football, evidently, was a doozy. I didn't watch it. I was recording the podcast that you're about to hear. Dr. Fax was in the lab watching, waiting in the wings for the gambling segment and the breakdown of this football game, Fax. This game was a doozy, man. And I bet the over and everything,
Starting point is 00:02:56 so I was really happy about that. But I think one of the coolest things about this game is it just goes to show you how human Kansas City's defense is this year. No, there's no defense. That's the coolest thing. That's what I'm saying. And it's cool for the league
Starting point is 00:03:10 because Kansas City, if their defense is in like playoff form the last couple years, it's like unfair to the rest of the league. So it's a good sign that there's going to be a little bit of parody. Just to sprinkle of parity, these guys can be beat. I hate it because my brother's on the team. But he's not on the team right now. He's not playing. He'll be on the team later in the year when he's in uniform.
Starting point is 00:03:32 For a football fan, this was fun. So I do a lot of watching of like Twitch and video games. gamers and the Madden guys watching this game is like watching people play video games just a lot of points a lot of scoring a lot of what the hell are you doing on defense yeah but it's very very entertaining it's the big 12 it's the big 12 has come to the NFL and like listen the Ravens a lot of their issues last week seem to have been game planned around I mean I've only watched the highlights so I don't know how much they hit Lamar.
Starting point is 00:04:11 But I do know this, what I saw at the very beginning of the game. Here's how this works. We record the pod. Nate goes in the other room. You're about to hear Macon and I go through the whole regular Monday. But I don't see it. I hear Nate yelling. Like I kind of got one eye on my bets.
Starting point is 00:04:27 Of course, I had the Chiefs and Reed. You'll see what Reed does to me in the pot. And I was, I was cringing back there for you, knowing no one, what bets you had. Yeah. Just seeing the progression of this game. Yeah. I was cringing for you. Safe his bet in football.
Starting point is 00:04:40 the the chiefs playing the the Ravens the past couple years and Lamar has not been able to slay that dragon and tonight this is a big deal for him and it's a very like quintessentially Lamar to me and you know like in the context of we talk about Lamar and it has he made it is he elite is he all this stuff like Lamar's a really good football player so you can cut hairs on could he throw the ball better outside the numbers what's up with the deep ball like do we do they have enough receivers there like they score 36 points and the Chiefs. Okay. And here's the thing. He threw some, a couple bad picks. The first one really cost them. You're not supposed to win that game when you throw a pick six to start the game off.
Starting point is 00:05:20 1410, seven points on the board. Al Groh used to preach to us about the how badger percentages get in a game for throwing for being minus two in the turnover category. In the turnover category and also like if you give up a score for the other team when you're on offense, like you're not supposed to win that game. And so, Mark Jackson with kind of that like that monkey on his back about Kansas City, you know, like some of it. I don't think he really cares about that stuff. I think most of us just argue on the internet. I don't even think he cares if people are defending him.
Starting point is 00:05:53 I don't think he cares of people are coming at him. I think a lot of people don't realize that. A lot of these first takey arguments we have online, like these players don't care some of them. And whether you like Lamar or not, how could you not like Lamar? This is the reality. He can throw two picks. He can make bad mistakes and still win. the football game because he's a problem in a lot of different areas.
Starting point is 00:06:14 I just feel like some of the picks, it's like the passes that he's trying to throw, he's trying to prove to everyone that's talking and saying that he can't pass and make these certain throws. I feel like a lot of his picks are him forcing that instead of just running, just staying, sticking to his game and doing his thing. If you watch the regression of this game, like call more. running place for him like other teams other coaches might not like it other people might not like he seems comfortable with it you have to protect them yes but the more you run with him it's
Starting point is 00:06:50 gonna open up everything and i just feel like the key to them winning this game is all these different r pos and you send people pulling in front of him i saw a draw with the the guard and the tackle i think pulled and it looked like if you're the end this was early in the game when i realized davonté Freeman was on the Ravens. I was like, who the fuck is that guy? They handed the ball. Everything is telling you. The flow is telling you if you're the left defensive end to crash and tackle play away. You're unblocked. Well, guess what? The ball is going to run right past you. Like two ships passing the night and it's going to be on your edge. Like the keys are confusing in this offense when it's rolling. And, you know, there's been some chatter about Greg Roman is losing his touch
Starting point is 00:07:33 and that sort of thing. And this run game they have, that they're capable of playing with you as a defender. It's scary. And it does open up the pass as well. Listen, the jump pass he threw to Hollywood Brown was like the Tebow thing,
Starting point is 00:07:51 but like a real pass in the high red. He's always exciting. He's always electric. But I thought one of the coolest things about this whole game, and I've only seen the highlights, okay? you've seen the game, was I feel like the trust between him and John Harbaugh is something to see. I just think it's really cool.
Starting point is 00:08:13 I think John Harbaugh appreciates him as a football player, respects him. And even after some of the mistakes he made early in the game, they're playing late. And this is one of the most inexplicable things to me. First off, the fumble was like, Cardinal's sin. So he fumbles the ball with a minute and 25 left. I mean, like effectively with one time out, which never got used in that situation, they probably were running it right down to the nub. Like it was over.
Starting point is 00:08:41 And so that fumble is literally the difference between maybe home field advantage, not home field advantage. Like these are the type of things you look back on. But here was the trust thing between Harbaugh and Lamar that blew me away. Everybody talks about, I can already see it, Harbaugh yelling at Lamar, do you want to go for it? Which, you know, like that's a real coach. player relationship.
Starting point is 00:09:04 Like you could just tell. So that's kind of like relationship goals for Gruden and Carr? Yeah, that would be relationship goals for them. I don't think they're there yet. But I do think like that's a big deal. But the thing that led up to that is just as big a deal to me because it is third and seven. Not only are you trusting Lamar to drop back and throw the ball and not make a catastrophic
Starting point is 00:09:26 mistake, but you're also trusting that he's going to fit that ball. into a shoe box size window, it turned out, a yard short of the sticks, to Sammy Watkins, which to me is a really sketchy play. Either way, though, you're thinking you've got to get a first down because you'd rather not take the chance and punt to him,
Starting point is 00:09:50 but you trust in Lamar to drop back, throw the ball, and try to ice this football game, and he makes a great throw in an area where balls get tipped, balls get punched up in the air, and the ball game could be over for them just like that by way of a Kansas City Mulligan and a kick, but he fit the ball in a tight window and then the trust, you know,
Starting point is 00:10:13 to put it in his hands. Yes, I want to go for it. And in that situation, I know every defender's like, I want to be that guy, I want you to go for it, that sort of thing. Like, no, you don't. It's fourth and like less than a yard, and it's the Ravens, man, like, and you're the chiefs. Okay, so as soon as Lamar, nod at his head. I'm pretty sure they were like, fuck, dude, because the odds do not favor that defense in that situation. And when you have an offense and a quarterback like Patrick Mahones,
Starting point is 00:10:41 you're just hoping, praying that as a defender, you can get the ball back in his hands because percentage-wise, if we get him the ball, if he has just a little bit of time, he can make something happen. No question. I just don't want to ever, like, you know, like, I've never got to play Lamar and I'm pretty happy I didn't I mean like it would have been fun but not maybe at 33 I would like to get Lamar at maybe like 23 when I could actually run I'm watching Willie Gay try to run with Lamar and Willie's a fast dude the second year guy to Mississippi State the backer for them and he's just got him on a string running to the pylon and you know like your angle has to be sideways when you're trying to catch tomorrow running to the pylon you got to play angles there's no good angles because he has you on a string and he literally takes like half a stutter step and it's that little stop and go that he creates another like starting gun situation
Starting point is 00:11:38 within a millisecond you're a step behind him and it's just like that play of all the plays late that I saw in this highlight I was like ah he's just this Willie Gay guy he played it perfect but you still can't beat him to the pylon he's just that athletic
Starting point is 00:11:52 he's that smart he's that intuitive with the ball and you don't have to be a perfect passer okay that should be the take you don't have to be a perfect passer and you can beat the Chiefs. You don't have to be a perfect passer. You don't even have to be a great passer and you can win a Super Bowl.
Starting point is 00:12:09 So like we get all caught up in this smoke of mirrors first take bullshit. They just beat the Chiefs 36, 35. And Derek Thomas isn't walking through that door this year. So like if they can figure some things out, you know, I said I didn't pick them to go to the playoffs, the Ravens.
Starting point is 00:12:26 Who knows what their ceiling is? The only reason I'm saying, who knows what their ceiling is, is Lamar Jackson. No matter how you feel about him, no matter which you think about his passing, no matter what you think about these stupid debates we have, he's the reason I could be eating my words at the end of the season, like in a big way.
Starting point is 00:12:43 I didn't pick him because of the playoffs. They might win the damn Super Bowl. If they can beat the Chiefs, they can win the Super Bowl. I believe this is my pick, them versus the Ravens versus Green Bay. And it just goes to show how tough Lamar is because we quit to forget. He's going through all these injuries on his team,
Starting point is 00:12:59 man he's just coming out he had a bad loss come out take it on the chin he gets into to the press conference it's on me got to do better and and he comes out and he does it it was a close game could it went either way they could have came out of here looking starting the season off real bad oh and two but getting out even even it up yeah on to the next week yeah that's major stone situation for him so uh good for the mar good for the ravens and uh you know what i don't i'm not sold on them making a deep push, but it's some provocative shit beating the Kansas City Chiefs in a shootout.
Starting point is 00:13:35 I mean, 36, 35. So on with the podcast. You've got this monster offensive line. You've got extra offensive linemen in there. Chiefs have to make sure they don't jump. And Jackson will get the first down and in effect end the game. How was your weekend, mate?
Starting point is 00:13:50 Well, I wake up early with my daughter. Bleary-eyed from watching ball all Saturday night. And the only thing I can think is golly. Sunday's going to be a long day. Podcasting into the wee hours after showing property all day. You know,
Starting point is 00:14:09 what was me? But I get up, go out, show property, head back to my office, and en route to my office, I see your truck in the Studio J parking lot, and I am buoyed. Man, I think damn C-Long's put in the hours. He's on the grind. He's prepping for the podcast.
Starting point is 00:14:29 We're going to be efficient tonight. We're going to be in and out of there. So I take out my cell phone. I take a picture of your truck. I send it to you and say, out of boy. Look at us guys. To which you say
Starting point is 00:14:40 the truck's been sitting there since Friday night. I don't drive drunk, mate. I don't. And then I have a hard time like organizing myself, mobilizing myself to go back and get my truck over the weekend because I don't need my truck. So I say to you, my friend. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:00 How was your weekend? Well, I got really drunk Friday night. Okay, all right. He's up to me. Nice. So we took all the fellows went out. The whole production crew went out. We had a great time.
Starting point is 00:15:11 Cowboy Reed, Taylor, Matt, John, the whole crew. Of course, Dr. Fax was out of town. Making doesn't drink or, you know, socialized. So it was just us guys, just us girls. And I got into the Jack Daniels and the, all the other Irish whiskeys and all the other Irish whiskies and all the other whiskeys and then some beers like a whole lot of them and i got home and i had one of those like you ever get drunk where you say what have i done oh yeah like while you're drunk you know you're like what have i done it's been a while but yeah yeah it had been like a month
Starting point is 00:15:48 for me but uh but i had one of those nights yeah i made your fomo on that friday night especially because i watched one of the worst episodes of television it was ted lasso Hey, that was in my housekeeping, but since we're here, I hear the, the show is cratering. Okay, since we're here, Apple ordered two more episodes
Starting point is 00:16:08 than they had written. So instead of altering some things, they said, we'll make a couple Evergreen episodes, one of Christmas episode, and the other about a role player. Why would I want to watch that show on Christmas?
Starting point is 00:16:19 There's so many wholesome things to do with my family. And if you go on Twitter, there's some people who are, are cult following Ted Lassow and think that, This was some masterpiece, this artful masterpiece. You're coming around. No, it was cheeks.
Starting point is 00:16:34 No, I love the show. Wholesome, good, but these extra two, they were cheeks. Game of Thrones situation. Kind of ran out of runway. I only saw, I only watched that last episode, Brand one. Here's the problem. Tying up like a fantasy world, like 300 different plots adapted from a novel as thick as all get out, is a little bit more difficult than wrapping up a show about an aw shucks fucking football coach
Starting point is 00:17:03 who has a joke every three seconds and a hit rate of like 0.150. Wrong. Wrong, wrong, wrong. Ted Lassau's great, but that episode was awful. But you mentioned the owner of the team. She's from the shame, the shame scene in Game of Thrones. That's right.
Starting point is 00:17:22 Yeah. That's right. Hey, since we last spoke, it turns out, Dexter Lawrence was on the right side of the line of scrimmish. He's going to be there in Hollow Man and we can exonerate him in the whole nine yards. Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Hello!
Starting point is 00:17:36 So actually, wait first, why Pittsburgh? Hometown of DJ Graham. He of the one-handed interception from Oklahoma Sooners. What a pick. On 4th and 17, but totally worth it. If you can snatch the ball like that, forget about the team. There was a better catch made
Starting point is 00:17:54 Saturday and I can't remember who the hell made it. Just putting that out in the universe. Any number of North Carolina Tar Heels? Just watched Sports Center from the other night. So Nebraska covers. We talked about that last week. Nebraska ends up covering. But yeah, that kid, DJ Graham was from Pittsburgh.
Starting point is 00:18:11 Pit Panthers are two and one after losing to Western Michigan. Steelers are one-in-one after losing to the Raiders Sunday. Hey, on the college football tip, I was basically perfect until Jeff Schwartz came along and fucking, you know, got inside my brain and I tailed him. You know, he's just so convincing, and I tailed him, and I said, hey, yeah, first half, Florida. They always hang with Bama in the first half, and then Bama pulls away. Well, the exact opposite of the thing happened. He meant the opposite. He meant the opposite.
Starting point is 00:18:39 He misspoke. And then also, he liked USC who ended up winning that football game, irregardless, which is a word, not a word, right? That's half the reason I said it. Irregardless, football coaches love saying made up words and shit, irregardless of the fact that they had to take the yellow slide onto the tarmac, bro. Honestly, if you guaranteed me that everything was going to be okay, I'm in for a yellow slide out of an airplane. Like, I would love that.
Starting point is 00:19:07 And I had the foolish tweet that said, you know, no team has ever taken the yellow slide and won in the same weekend. Well, that's not true. Michigan, Wolverines, basketball team. They won the Big Ten tournament in 2017 after, Taking the yellow slot. That's right. Shout out to the Trojans.
Starting point is 00:19:29 Tar Hills, Virginia Cavaliers. You want to talk about it real quick? Rip the scab off. Okay, sure. No shade to the scholar athletes at Virginia. Classes, of course, are optional at UNC Chabell Hill. That there Saturday night, losing the ballgame 59 to 39. That was the worst defensive performance I have ever witnessed.
Starting point is 00:19:51 And I've seen Illinois put up 100 on. Virginia in the MicronPC.com bowl many years ago. Oh, that was bad. I've seen, in Hawaii. Wasn't that in Hawaii? Kurt Kittner and it was in Miami, but might as well have been Hawaii. I mean, Miami could be. Yeah, they're not far apart. I saw, I saw, I've seen Navy put up 100 points against Virginia running. Oh, that was ugly. The triple option and only the triple option. In the cold. Freezing in the military bowl. You get to go to a military ball. In their stadium. Did you like the military bowl? Yes, sir. I've seen with you, Clemson put up 100 points against Virginia
Starting point is 00:20:27 a couple years back in the ACC championship game but I haven't seen anything like what we saw this was gross I mean first contact was eight yards down the field at best Sam Howe could do whatever he wanted to do frankly Brendan Armstrong is the better quarterback The red rifle could do whatever he okay He's the better quarterback I'm standing on my own too here And you know I was a big Sam Hal fan
Starting point is 00:20:48 I like the take ear regardless I think that 335 look from from the who's might need a little adjusting before Friday night when the deeks come to town. Everybody gets a mulligan. Jay Feeley said today, talking about the Jaguars, he was like, this is the worst defensive football I've ever seen or something of that effect.
Starting point is 00:21:04 Which is funny because I think he lived in St. Louis in the early 2010s. Hey, but you guys had like a name for yourself and stuff. No, no, no, no. That was when we got good. I think he was there for the like the lean years, the Spag's years. You know, where Brett Farr was putting up 60 points on us
Starting point is 00:21:20 in a Jets uniform, that type of thing. Okay. Well, Jay Feely didn't have the fucking ACC network, evidently. Jay Feely doesn't get Hulu by way of the ACC network that you had to stream it through your iPad and on your, fuck these streaming services, dude. I have a lot of good things to say. Except for Amazon. I have a lot of good things to say about Winbet, speaking of some of your...
Starting point is 00:21:43 Well, we're going to talk about gambling later. I was going to say employers, not really employers, some of your business associates. Overlords, is what I call them. Had I had any... Vegas is my overlord. Money deposited in the Win Bet app on Saturday night. The live line at halftime with the who's up for. Oh, Caroline all day.
Starting point is 00:22:02 I sent you a text... Emotional head. It would have been. It was a no-brainer for me. I sent you a text rolling on the floor, laughing my effing ass off something to that effect. And that's because it was... You weren't. It was insane that regime's in the league.
Starting point is 00:22:17 That's my Beville Conway, though. I was going to say, you know, Pittsburgh. Raiders. Beautiful, objectively beautiful. Two weeks in a row that Pittsburgh is able to be the tide that raises all boats in the Beville Conway standings.
Starting point is 00:22:31 Buffalo last week it was porn. This week might have looked even better at home against the Raiders. How did I do with that? Way better. Six, five out of ten. UNC and Virginia, just as Sam Howell was the
Starting point is 00:22:47 celebrated quarterback, but Brennan Armstrong was the one who I'd take if I had to make a choice, I think Virginia, the Wahoos look better when it came to the uniforms, then even those beautiful, objectively beautiful, Carolina, what time period
Starting point is 00:23:03 are those, like the Julius Peppers era? Yeah, mid-late 90s. They're gorgeous, but I think we look better. Yeah, Dr. Beville-Conway, world-renowned color expert if you're new to the program. We give out a uni, just general optic award. The most beautiful football game of the weekend.
Starting point is 00:23:19 And I need to disagree with you. solely, solely, primarily because of Virginia's numerals. That just, you know, like the numerals. So ugly to me. And I need the logo on both sides of the helmet. Maybe too much inside baseball for people. I forget that like not all of all six million people to listen to this podcast living in Charlottesville. Okay.
Starting point is 00:23:38 If UNC would delete the Carolina from the sleeve, I think that's a perfect jersey. That is such a pimple on the ass of, I don't know, an ass that's otherwise very, very attractive. I don't know. Well said. Yeah, that's the best I can do there. I'll stick in college football for my Beville Conway Award winner. Ole Miss. Sure.
Starting point is 00:23:59 The University of Mississippi needs some recognition for what they're doing uniform-wise. And they half-assed it and still look cool. Right. They went red and yet it still worked. Opening week against Louisville, they went with all the, all powder blues and looked, they looked impeccable. And then against Tulane, who's doing some fun things with some cool colors, little powder blue themselves and some green.
Starting point is 00:24:22 I gotta say this about their retro logo. Yeah. That might have been the weakest part of the whole uniform. Like it could be so much better if they could just go back in time and get a cooler throwback logo. You want to go with the T with the wave again? Something, I don't know. Like pick another one.
Starting point is 00:24:37 Make some shit up. I'm not going to go back and check the 1940s programs. Ole Miss, we got rid of the racist plantation owner like years ago at this point. Yeah, I don't even remember him. Ole Miss, the official logo now, I guess, is just that script. You're talking about the Reb guy with the mustache? Colonel Reb, yeah. They're doing the Landshark thing, which I don't totally understand.
Starting point is 00:24:59 You don't understand it. I don't understand it. I don't understand. If I recall correctly. But the Unis are awesome. They went powder blue helmet, red stripe, red uni, and looked great against Tulane. So shout out. They did look good. And it was at night, too.
Starting point is 00:25:13 It was, I had a bit of the Saturday scaries because of what I, was talking to you about on Friday. And that was like a Xanax or something, sitting there and watching that game late at night, the beautiful colors, the non-competitive football that was going on. It was something about watching a game that's out of hand, late,
Starting point is 00:25:32 where the guys have to turn it into a podcast that I love. It's soothing. 61-21 going to the fourth quarter. How many did they end up scoring? Final score from Oxford, 6121. You saw all the scoring, buddy. Wow, dude.
Starting point is 00:25:45 No points in the fourth quarter. Yeah, it just rocked me to sleep. Yep. like some sort of a night nurse. Shout out to the night nurses out there, man. I mean, they do an important job. Yo men and yo women's work. Layup line.
Starting point is 00:25:59 Bees scoring the first air, bench his ass. If you play with my money, I'm a lyncher ass. I'm a lynchie shit. Don't tip me bitch. Oh. Cash money millionaire.
Starting point is 00:26:09 Mm. Cash money, millionaires. Is it millionaires? Yeah, it's millionaire. It's singular. Uh,
Starting point is 00:26:15 and that is Little Wayne off the Carter. The Carter. of course. A lot of people say Carter 2, the best work. A lot of people say Carter 3, the best work. A lot of the people say Carter 3 is Little Wayne's best work. Those people are absolutely fucking insane. It's either Carter or Carter 2 and Taylor's back there. His eyebrows raised because I think he went to college during Carter 3. And that's the whole thing. It's like whenever he went to college, that's when you like Little Wayne the best. You show me somebody that is like younger than 20, that's younger than 30 or younger than 28 that appreciates one and two,
Starting point is 00:26:51 the Carter and Carter 2, that's an old soul there. Most people, it's age appropriate. I appreciate the intro, walk-in on the Carter one. Okay. I think that one's pretty dope. The Carter and Carter 2, that's an old soul there. Most people, it's age-appropriate. Cash-Money millionaire lyrics, yeah, read them, make.
Starting point is 00:27:11 Well, no, I'm seeing an S on the end of all the. Oh, it's, yeah, cash money millionaires. It's plural, which makes no sense to me because the chorus is I'm a motherfucking cash money millionaire. Hmm. You want to read some of the lyrics out loud? Be happy to. Keep pimping. Keep pimping.
Starting point is 00:27:29 Keep pimping. I got a bitch in the back. I got a hoe in the front one cooking the crack, one rolling the blunt. I'm getting pussy and ass from my beautiful broad. If you're looking for that holla at your boy, I'm a ma, ma, mac, mac, a pip, pim. I'm a spis. spit out shrimp. I pull out clean.
Starting point is 00:27:48 I get out limp. I wake like little little limp. I talk like bitch, get, get. Okay, what's enough? The best player on my team when I ball women cheer
Starting point is 00:28:00 and they love the way I come out with the gear. This jacket, these shoes don't come out this year. So if you love your girl, don't let her come out this year. None of this makes any sense. Who you think you fucking wit.
Starting point is 00:28:14 Who you think you fucking wit. Who you think you fucking wit who you think you fucking wit who you think you fucking wit i'm a mother fucking cash money millionaire you sound like the uh you really should be one of the translators like a google translator or somebody that like reads text for people may i give you the second chorus can i tell you no can i tell you why uh i picked this song it's because one of my my rookies josh sweat is rich he is a cash money millionaire The Eagles broke him off this week, middle of the week. I woke up to people text me saying,
Starting point is 00:28:51 man, you were right about Josh Sweat. I was like, did he sack somebody on like a Wednesday? I don't know. I don't follow. Nah, they paid him going on the weekend. I guess it must have been Friday or whatever it was. Josh Sweat is incredibly talented. I have said he's the most talented guy on the defensive line.
Starting point is 00:29:05 He's not the most important guy on the defensive line. I think the most important guy on the defensive line, if not Fletcher Cox, got hurt today. And his name is Brandon Graham. So, bittersweet. for me checking up on old teammates in Philly this week. One got paid, one got hurt. And it turns out that Brandon Graham did his Achilles today,
Starting point is 00:29:25 which was an absolute bummer to see that. I'm so safe and comfortable sitting on the couch. Like the Achilles is the injury that every dude worries about. Like it's just in the back of your head because guys, I've seen guys go out like running a route with no tightness, no soreness. they feel great and they just fall like somebody shot them in the ankle the thing pops and it popped for bg today and it's tough man because i feel like the team is really trending in the right direction seriani's a good football coach the strength of that football team is up front and bg's a huge part
Starting point is 00:30:05 of that so as soon as he went out in like the third quarter whatever it was the niner started getting it rolling on the ground and i'm not saying that it's all him, but I am saying that when you have a defensive line where there are no weaknesses and you have depth, you don't have to worry about that part of the football game, which is a big deal. You take that for granted. Hey, all the gaps are accounted for. And Brandon Graham's really good on the left side because he's so disruptive. He's not just a guy who kind of stays in his gap. He jumps a lot. He's backdoor a lot. As a blocker, you don't really know where he's going to be, but he can also bench press you. So one of the most underrated football players in the game,
Starting point is 00:30:45 is out with a season-ending injury, I suppose, and that sucks. And we also lost Brandon Brooks today, if you're an Eagles fan. So really tough for Brooks because he just came off the Achilles, and he did his peck. So who knows how long he's going to be out? I don't know if the words come down yet,
Starting point is 00:31:02 but those are huge blows to a football team that looked very competitive for a game and a half here. Like literally, I'm watching them, and I'm like, they could win some football games this year. They still could, but these are two big blows to, the strength of that football team. In the unlikely event, we don't circle back to Niners Eagles,
Starting point is 00:31:20 Quez 2 for 117. How about the unquestionables? And I called that on this podcast. Hey, you heard it here. Cuez was going to go off. And he has, and he's on my fucking bench. Hey, buddy. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:32 Two for 117. Let's call it a PPR league. How many points would that be? 117-ish, not 119. 119 points? Yeah. All right. Sure.
Starting point is 00:31:42 Okay. I really don't know. 22? 13.7. 13.7. That's great. Awesome. Well, he's on my bench.
Starting point is 00:31:54 So not a big deal, but I told you, you're going to hear a lot about this Quez Watkins guy down there in Philly. You were right. I was right about something. The Eagles, man,
Starting point is 00:32:03 they're set up. If they can stay in third and manageable, that's what they were doing most of the game today. They can move the football and they can keep the game in phase. And if the game is in phase, they're okay. I still worry about that team falling two scores behind. I don't think they're set up
Starting point is 00:32:20 to play from two scores behind at this point. Overall, you got to be encouraged if you're an Eagles fan because if I had told you that you'd play the Niners that tight and possibly deserve another set of downs at the end of the game because the play clock was at zero squarely for like a solid second and a half before Jimmy G snapped the ball and he sneaked for snuck. Can I say that in a football context? Sure. He snuck for a first down. The birds were still in that game. So the only thing about that game that I want to really rant about is that, and you might not have seen this, this Kvon Wallace penalty on Trey Sermon. Have you seen that? I did. Absolutely dog shit. Like, I get that a lot of these penalties are inherently slanted towards the offense. I get that
Starting point is 00:33:07 that's just how it is. But Kavon Wallace is trying to be, knee level and Trey Sermon is essentially touching his chin to his sternum. Okay, picture that and falling down and Kavon Wallace gets a piece of his dome. And on the broadcast you got Dean Blandino popping on saying he gets it, that's the right call. And Slareth, who should know better. And I love Stink, but Stank is on the wrong side of this one. He says, hey, they're trying to get rid of that. I mean, that is not the defender's fault.
Starting point is 00:33:41 and that was one of a few calls today by officials that I was like, what the fuck are we doing? And I'm not even going to get into the Julio touchdown because I could be ranting for another five minutes on it. I mean, or some of the Dallas calls. But you know. Dean once wished my wife a happy birthday.
Starting point is 00:33:59 That was cool. I also have another cameo from Dean that I'm saving for the right situation. That I engineered. I engineered a classic Dean Blanino cameo. It's from three years ago. Hey, you sent me a screenshot of simultaneous missed calls, one from Massillo and me at the same time. Yeah, 7.18 p.m. Was it not? Both of you guys, same minute. You misspell Riscilla's name, which I appreciate. No problem. And you don't capitalize either of our last names. Is that everybody in your phone or just people you don't respect?
Starting point is 00:34:28 No, I just don't capitalize last names of my phone. I don't think. I'm pretty sure actually Dickerson might be capitalized, though. Wow. Well, your wife had her maiden name in my telephone up until about eight months ago. Did you have it capitalized? No, I put your last name on the back of her name, capitalized. As long as it's capitalized. You're not going to find any uncapitalized names in my telephone. By the way, two last things. Milata, they paid him this week.
Starting point is 00:34:55 He played pretty well. Bosa ended up with two sacks and big sacks for them, but beat Goddard once. And then the second one was like a team sack, a pocket sack. Both of these sacks. We're trying to get through housekeeping. Jordan Milata stayed inside out for much of the game, absorbed power. So for a guy that was six foot eight, well, still is six foot eight, never played a lick of football.
Starting point is 00:35:20 And that was about all he had going for him was that he looked like a Game of Thrones extra. And he was from Australia. So we assumed, hey, this shit might work out. He has been unbelievable relative to expectations. I was like nervous when I saw what they paid him. But that's the thing about not knowing much football. Clean slate for this kid. great coach. Stoutland's teaching him a lot.
Starting point is 00:35:42 And by the way, Josh Norman, he looked okay today. They're very thin at corner. The big game in the one o'clock slate that we have to talk about here is Jaguars, Broncos. If you listen to the podcast,
Starting point is 00:36:00 you know why. Taylor and Reed, betting on their respective favorite teams, and the stakes were high. Stakes were very high. Things got a little tense here in the football watching studio. So who's taking the blow-up doll dinner?
Starting point is 00:36:16 Cassandra and I will be having a lovely dinner at some point down the road. Some point down the road. What are we doing this? We need to do it before it gets cold. When is Cassandra arriving? Mail order bride. Mail order bride.
Starting point is 00:36:34 The people can't seem to differentiate between my voice and Reed's voice. So that was Taylor, who is the big loser. I don't think you can read sound the same. I can. You know this mail order bride? You know this mail order bride? Who?
Starting point is 00:36:49 Do I? Cassandra. She's from the Amazon. Is that right? Oh, dot com. Yeah. So take us through it, fellas. What were the emotions like at 7-0 Jacksonville?
Starting point is 00:37:01 Oh, I was stuttering in my boots. He was shuddering in his boots. He was stuttering his boots. He was doing all types of things. shit. We were shuddering in our boots because the push was at play. And of course, if this bet pushed it at six points for people at home, the no, no gambling, the line was six. Okay? So the Broncos were favored. They win by more than six. Cowboy Reed is home free, which they did. And so Taylor's taking the sex doll to the restaurant and then deflating it
Starting point is 00:37:33 and walking out after dinner, right? But if it pushed at six is the sentence I was trying to finish, Makin and I would have had to go out with the sex doll. Yeah, and I don't know if you said this on the pot or not, but you said it's going to be 20 to 14, and it was 20 to 7. Like literally, we were in push territory, and we were worried about having to take this date out
Starting point is 00:37:54 to, like, I don't know, continental divide, shout out. We were hoping for a push. When it was 27, were you,
Starting point is 00:38:02 were you? Were you, indeed? What's the plan for the date, Taylor? Two, two entrees, two meals like a like yeah she's gonna have some food in front of her right yeah yeah she's she's
Starting point is 00:38:14 gonna have to get her own dessert i'm definitely not sharing dessert uh-huh maybe a bottle of wine though yeah yeah red red prececo down her her latex oh wow wow calm down dude it's only sunday night i don't think it's not gonna deflate her either by the sounds of it So you deflated her, right? Yeah. That was part of the terms, man. Sorry. You got to get your own, dude, if you want one.
Starting point is 00:38:47 Yeah, unbelievable that you guys actually went through with that. So shout out to you guys. Kudos. Very brave. I'm so glad that it's not us. By the way, Taylor might have a side team. I think he's seen enough of the Jags. Who is it?
Starting point is 00:39:04 How long have you been a Jags fan, first off, since you were a kid, right? Since I've known what football was, yeah. And why? I grew up in the area. Cousin played center for him for five years and, yeah. Shit. Yeah. Jesus.
Starting point is 00:39:17 Yeah. There's plenty of good reasons. You were going to be like, oh, you don't have a good reason. My dad is Tony Bisselli. Jesus. Hey, you know the, you know the Hooters at the landing? Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:39:32 So do I. So do I? It doesn't exist anymore. Oh, really? Yeah. Is that where you met Cassandra? No, no, no, no. Oh, actually, Gator Bowl,
Starting point is 00:39:41 when Chris blew the Gator Bowl and like, oh, wait, I was there the night before. Peter Lelick blew the Gator Bowl, taking tequila shots. Not us. Yeah, okay. We were playing against Texas Tech and their eight-foot splits, bro.
Starting point is 00:39:52 Yeah. Ryland Reed held me, you got to see that hole. Do you remember that hole? I actually do. It's one of the most blatant holds I've ever seen in my life. I still feel that in my L-7.
Starting point is 00:40:04 Michael Crabtree, just catching. Just touchdown passes. Fuck that guy. Not like, I don't dislike him, but hey. But he took your Gator Bowl, man. He took my damn Gator Bowl trophy. Not many people have Gator Bowls.
Starting point is 00:40:17 That's right. So who are the new Jags in your life? The Las Vegas Raiders. Oh, wow. That sucks. Oh, 2 and 0. Yeah, we fully support having a side team, man. That's all good.
Starting point is 00:40:32 Well, I thought he was going to say everybody's side team in the Los Angeles Chargers, but the Raiders, wow. Andrew Hawkins. He's a friend. Now he's going to be a friend of the program. He played six years for the Browns and the Rams. Don't forget the Cincinnati Bengals. Bro, he did the whole Rust Belt.
Starting point is 00:40:47 That's incredible. He deserves a medal of some sort for doing the Rust Belt. And he was a pretty good player. He's also really good in the media. Shared a set with him virtually at Amazon. He's a lot of fun, noseball. And he watches Cleveland Browns game. which even though they're good,
Starting point is 00:41:07 eh, we've got to have like a Brown's correspondent. He's officially our Browns correspondent. Brown's correspondent. 43440 Andrew Hawkins. He did run a 4-3, huh? 4-3. He's also just brilliant, dude.
Starting point is 00:41:21 Yeah. Here he is. So, as promised, my good friend, Andrew Hawke-Hawkins, is in the building. He's got his own set. He's like, Hawk, explain the garage setup you got going on
Starting point is 00:41:38 that does not look anything like a garage. you should see this thing. It looks like LeBron set this up just for you. Yeah, no. LeBron did not set it up for me. Well, I guess indirectly because I did work for him for a number of years. But so when the pandemic hit, I'm like, this sucks, right? We can't go in the studio.
Starting point is 00:41:54 Everybody looks terrible on Skype messages and calls. And so I was like, well, I'm just going to start building little by little my own garage studio. And so I just got on Amazon, started buying cameras, microphone, lights, backgrounds. Like, this is, this is all, this is cardboard. It's like, peeling six brick. I started getting custom neon signs. And I'm like, yeah, I've had fun with it, Chris. Bro, this is amazing.
Starting point is 00:42:23 Hey, Hawk, is your water heater running because you, you might want to run catch it. Yeah. It is. It's a little static. I apologize. My water heater runs literally every two weeks and it gets super loud. And so I just pray that it's never when I'm on air. And here we are.
Starting point is 00:42:39 Bro, this guy, I'll see him on like big time stuff and I'll be like, I know he's in his garage. Like I know, like it looks, this set looks incredible. He's got his Columbia rolling chair. He's got some like one of those green walls that you see in Miami on the side of nightclubs. And then a brick wall that looks very real. And he's got subtle flex when he came on. He's got two garage sets. They look different.
Starting point is 00:43:00 He's got options. So options, baby. Hawk, a guy that has options is Baker Mayfield. A lot of weaponry. Yes. in your old stomping grounds. I don't know if they have Hawk Hawkins options, but they've got some options.
Starting point is 00:43:15 What was the holdup today getting going? Because you were, I know, glued to the TV, probably watching your brownies. Oh, yeah. Yeah, I had to check them out. Yeah, I think, I think, when number one, they have so many options because they had Hawk Hawkins, right?
Starting point is 00:43:27 Like, if they didn't have Hawk Hawkins, they wouldn't have that draft in free agent capital to go get everyone else. So I have a vested interest and watching at least win because we suck so bad and that wasn't fun. But I think the problem was today when we, Jarvis got hurt early in the game. So we lost him. He's one of my favorite players in a league.
Starting point is 00:43:48 I mean, he's been that way, even since I was playing because he approaches the game with such a tenacity. He's a leader of that team. So losing him hurt, obviously no OBJ for them. And that's also hurt for Baker Mayfield. But I think all in all, he played, he played well. It was a slow start. I think the Texans also are sneaky.
Starting point is 00:44:08 better than we all thought they would be. I thought we all thought they were going to go 0 and 17. And not only have they won again, they've been competitive and they've been a lot better than, you know, we imagined in the first two weeks. And Tyrod looked pretty good, I guess, until, you know, another bad luck deal for him. I mean, he's probably thinking like, dude, how do I, how do I get a break here? Even last week, I think we were all excited. If a rookie would have had the week that Tarot Taylor had a week ago, we'd be talking about
Starting point is 00:44:34 like, oh, this guy is the next thing coming, right? but we just cross our fingers and hope he can, A, be healthy and nothing crazy happens. And, of course, he messes up his hamstring today, which derailed the chances the Texans had to win that game. I'm looking at the Texans, and for a second, they were thinking, hey, we could land this plane first place in the AFC South. The Titans come back on the back of Derek Henry. So that division is a little bit of a shit show. How about the AFC North, the Ravens and the Chiefs are playing as we speak? do you feel like the stock of that division is as down as I do?
Starting point is 00:45:08 Because you watch the Steelers as well today. Yeah, it's not as exciting in the first couple of weeks as I thought it would be. The NFC West has been probably, for my money, I think they're the best division right now. Yeah. But yeah, I thought it would be the AFC North. I mean, obviously the Ravens dropped a game where we could go against the Raiders and then the Steelers come out and kind of lay an egg that. Also, we thought they would come up on the Raiders.
Starting point is 00:45:37 I think the Raiders are actually another sneaky good team that are a lot better than we give them credit for. But in the division, it hasn't been great. And I mean, if the Browns would have lost that game today, we would have been thinking the sky was falling down in Cleveland. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. And if the Ravens can't pull it out as we speak, they start O-N-2. And the Steelers, Damnear, started O-N-2. So who do you trust more, the Ravens or the Steelers in that division?
Starting point is 00:46:03 Who do I trust more? I trust the Browns most. That's Homer, but I do think they're like one of the most talented roster in the league. Of the Steelers and the Ravens, I got to go with the Ravens because ultimately I'll come back to the quarterbacks. And, you know, Lamar is struggling a little bit in this game. You know, they weren't protecting them well in the first game.
Starting point is 00:46:24 But on the other side, I got to give him the edge over Ben. Just because Ben is, you know, he's old. And you can see it. He's not playing bad, but he's playing like a guy. who is 40 years old, right? And, you know, that's tough. And father, time catches all of us. He's still their best option.
Starting point is 00:46:39 He's still a better option than a lot of quarterbacks in the NFL, but he's just not the Ben Rothersberger that we've grown accustomed to over the last decade plus. And on top of it, we shared the set all less. Well, we didn't share the set. We shared the virtual set. I was privileged enough to share your set with you. Last year, my Super Bowl pick was the Steelers, and you guys gave me shit every week
Starting point is 00:46:59 because I was like, I still believe in them. I don't believe in them. I trust the Ravens now more than I trust the Steelers, and I don't trust the Ravens that much this year, so it goes to show. Yeah, Andrew, this is a uniform podcast in case you didn't know. When you're in Cleveland, you've got a big Cleveland across your chest with the drop shadow. You got a big brown written down your leg. Do you even recognize this outfit anymore?
Starting point is 00:47:24 And Lordy, what went through your head? When they broke out that gradient or whatever? brown, big orange. Oh, that sucked. I remember the unveiling. We were all texting each other like, yo, these are hideous. And the numbers were so big.
Starting point is 00:47:41 And I'm five, seven. And the numbers were like, wrapping around my torso. I'm like, so I'm already doing everything I can, uniform-wise, to look tall. I got white tights. I'm getting the super small pants. I'm like getting slimming.
Starting point is 00:47:56 I'm wearing white shoes. Anything that make me look regular size. human out there on an NFL field and they come with these life size numbers that literally are like touching on the side because my torso isn't big enough to hold them. They were not great which is why they went
Starting point is 00:48:14 right back as soon as the contract is up. By the way, I think the Browns get ups now. We both agree. Excellent. Excellent. Look good, play good. And they are playing good. And they are playing good. That was the only thing holding back some of those teams and the St. Louis Rams. The Unis. The St. Louis Rams you know, myself and Hawk and Hawk was a St. Louis Ram for a short bit.
Starting point is 00:48:32 That was a ram. He was a ram. We're teammates. We chapped it up together out there. And that's another thing I was going to ask, before we dive into your issue that you have with the single-digit numbers, which we also share that sentiment, is what do you think goes through the Texans' heads right now? I mean, and like what's going through Jacksonville's head right now? Like, what locker room would you rather be in? And I have a feeling I know the answer.
Starting point is 00:48:57 because those are two teams that we thought were going to finish at the bottom of the NFL table. Yeah, I think I would rather be in the Texans locker room than the Jaguars locker room. Because honestly, I mean, if the Browns would have lost that game, both organizations would not have been happy, I feel like. Right. Because the last thing the Texas is want to do
Starting point is 00:49:22 is to be just good enough to not get a quarterback, right? And then they're like, we're kind of stuck here for a little while. And so with that, in Texas locker room, there is no expectations. Again, I've been in that kind of locker room where it was like, hey, we'll just go out here. We're going into games. We know we're going to lose because we're not good enough. The team sucks.
Starting point is 00:49:43 Me and Joe Thomas are looking at each other like, hey, man, you stay healthy. No, you stay healthy, bud, all right? No, you stay healthier. No. I want you to come out of this game healthier than when you went into it. Exactly. Yeah, and that sucks losing, but at the same time, again, there's no expectations for you, like the Texas. The Jaguars, I don't think they realize that, you know, those coaches and that staff specifically,
Starting point is 00:50:07 I don't think they realize how harder was going to be in the NFL. They're going to have some time to do it, but I just feel like they've been kind of punched in the mouth because, again, we all thought that the Jaguars were going to beat the Texans and handedly, right? Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. And I feel the same way as you, honestly, if you'd ask me before Urban Meyer was hired, I would have said, I'd rather be the team with some hope, with a number one quarterback with like, hey, everything's in front of us. You know, now that Urban is in Jacksonville does not seem like a fun place to play.
Starting point is 00:50:36 It seems like he's unraveling a little bit. And David Cully, you know, like is the one guy that I would probably be willing to play for in Houston. He seems like such a cool, calm, collective dude. And actually, I think they make a run at hitting their overwind total and playing themselves right out of the sweepstakes. So jersey numbers. We have a bunch of funny looking cats out there, including like some corners
Starting point is 00:51:02 that I've become accustomed to seeing looking really sweet out there for like a decade like Pat P in Minnesota. He's wearing number seven. I know that this is an LSU thing and that sort of thing, but I don't get that. Then you've got guys like Sterling Shepard who actually look better than I thought, but by and large
Starting point is 00:51:18 I do not like the single digit number thing. You either? No, not a fan of the single digits. And surprised because I didn't come into it with that take. I thought it would be sweet because I loved it in college. I rock number two in college. When I was in Canada, when I played in the CFL, I was number zero. So I'm all forward pushing the boundaries on the numbers.
Starting point is 00:51:38 And then once everyone started playing, I'm like, yo, this is hard to follow. I don't want to see D. Lyman in single digits. I don't want to see linebackers rocking four. D.Bs rocking number 11. I have no idea who anybody is. I don't know what positions they play. I don't know like what side of the ball is on the field. It's just confusing.
Starting point is 00:51:57 Maybe I'm the old man now, but I'm like, yo, just go back to the other. So who looks the worst to you? Who's somebody that you were used to seeing? And this isn't like personal. So if anybody ever hears this podcast, not that you look bad, it's just the number on your chest looks bad. Who looks? I don't know if anyone looks bad, and that's an honest opinion. I don't think anyone looks bad.
Starting point is 00:52:16 It's just too confusing. Yeah. It just feels amateur. It feels like we've been accustomed to see in college. players do this. And it was like the weird, like subtle thing that separated college from professional. And it's just, I don't know. I'm just not a fan of it.
Starting point is 00:52:32 I don't want to see you in number one. Carolina changed two of their linebackers numbers like two hours before the game or less than 48 hours before the game. So there's a whole like, you know, the thing that Tom Brady was complaining about, like, IDing backers and who the hell is who. And we were all like, yeah, Tom, you're just old. Shut up. You're old, Tom.
Starting point is 00:52:51 And then we were like, we agree. So that leads me to my Tom Brady question Because when I asked you what you wanted to talk about tonight What stood out to Andrew Hawkins today I got a quote in my text message that I said I'm only going to read this quote I'm not going to turn it into a question Because I don't even know where we're going with this
Starting point is 00:53:10 The quote was Tom Brady is a terrible competitor What did Andrew Hawkins mean by that? Yeah, that was my quote I came to that epiphany today Tom Brady's 106, right? He's played in the NFL for literally just as long as a lot of these kids have been alive. And I start, like, we all have this thing. We've been shoved down our throat how much of a competitor he is.
Starting point is 00:53:37 And as I'm watching, I'm like, okay, the dude is 44. He's still better than everybody. So what do you call somebody who does something way better than everybody way longer than they should? That's not a competitor. You're hogging the ball. It's the easiest thing for you to do. That's not a challenge. This isn't a challenge to you anymore.
Starting point is 00:53:57 It hasn't been for a very long time. And it dawns to me like, yo, you're not a competitor at all. If I go play with my son's youth basketball team and I'm dropping 40 points a game, no one's going to be like, oh, man, you're the most fierce competitor. They're going to be like, at some point, you got to go do something else. You got to grow up and go get a startup in Silicon Valley. Because you know, that's the next thing. He's going to be like, we're going to be like working for him.
Starting point is 00:54:21 I was going to say he's Amazon, Rich. We've worked for Amazon. So, no, I'm buying that a little bit. It's a lot like you in this podcast. You're so good at it. Eventually. Oh, I'd be happy to move on. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:54:34 Hey, Hawk. Challenge yourself. You're 13 for you on Twitter.com. Did you, uh, did you land on at hawk organically or did you have to compensate somebody for that, that tight handle? Yeah. That's tight. Well, I, so I'm going to flex a little bit more.
Starting point is 00:54:51 I have ad hoc on Twitter, ad hoc on Instagram, Snapchat, TikTok, YouTube. Damn, dude. I was going to say another one, but it were, yeah. Only fans. Only fans. I don't even know that they have handles on there. I don't know anything about only fans, dude. Yeah, I'm sure.
Starting point is 00:55:14 I'm sure you get it mixed up with GoFund me all the time. I didn't know where that money was going. Babe, I thought. I thought those were donations. I just, no, so I got a, I got ad hoc in like, I think, 2012 or 13. It was like some,
Starting point is 00:55:33 actually I'll tell you the story. Some guy in Mexico had it. And there was a, he didn't speak English. And I like translated and like on Google Translate to ask, what would it be to get this? And he's like, I'm a big fan of Eli Manning and the Giants, and I'm like, that's weird.
Starting point is 00:55:56 Oh, easy. Oh, tell you on a second, he's a giant man. Many of us were. I am an underbash fan of Eli Manning, but the Giants, I was like, it's a weird team to pick, man. And he was like, yeah, a big fan. And I'm like, well, how would you like a signed jersey and a football from them for that handle you got?
Starting point is 00:56:18 He was like, oh, that would be amazing. So I called one of my buddies who was playing with the Giants, got it done, shipped that thing across the border. And that started it off. And then I just started knocking the rest of them down little by little. That's so great. He's one of the most entrepreneurial, creative, resourceful people I know. He legitimately is, and people need to see. Since we're talking about Twitter, you need to go to his Twitter and look at his sketch comedy.
Starting point is 00:56:42 There's like skits that he puts on. I'm pretty sure he runs the camera, writes the skit. He throws the ball to himself. he's the extra in all his own skits. Like, he just does it all. And by the way, the thing I read on your Wikipedia page right before you came on is that you were an extra in Ides of March. I was.
Starting point is 00:56:59 I was an extra in Ides of March. And what, I think we filmed that in 2011, maybe. We filmed that. I caught that. I caught that. I mean, Cluny, Ryan Gosling. The whole crew, you know how we do. The Goss, the Clune, the Hawk.
Starting point is 00:57:15 There was a scene that I was in that, oh, man, I would have had so much face time. The scene comes in. George Clooney barges into the office. I'm like a campaign manager. Clooney pushes me out of the way. Oh, he touched you. He starts yelling at Ryan Gosling.
Starting point is 00:57:35 Gosselin, and I'm like, I'm in the middle of him in this scene. Cameras right here. I'm in the middle, like, trying to calm them down. They're yelling back and forth. Goslin storms out. I'm like, yo, I'm about to be a star. Oh, my God. That scene is nowhere to be found.
Starting point is 00:57:49 No. It's not on the, it's not in the movie. It's not in the like extended clips. Deleted seat, nothing. They literally took it and put it in the trash. And I probably ruined the scene. Bro, no, you probably did great. My only question about that is, are you taller in Ryan Gosling?
Starting point is 00:58:07 No, I am not. Okay. He's not a short dude. Oh, he's not short. He just has like a short dude face, which basically means he's like a good looking Hollywood guy. You know what I mean? I just assume they're all short.
Starting point is 00:58:17 But it's not true. It's not true. Howie Long's very tall. Howie longs very tall. That reminds me the time I was on Ballers, Firestorm. It's got, you know, he still gets royalties. He still gets royalties. He'll be like, hey, Chris, $7.
Starting point is 00:58:31 How about that, huh? Still making money off Firestorm. No, but like I was in Miami and I had a buddy that was like, hey, come down to the baller set, meet the Rock, hang out. We'll put you in a cameo. I was like, yeah, I guess you don't say no to that. Like, what the fuck am I doing? I'm just hung over on South Beach.
Starting point is 00:58:49 So I go down there. I spend like two hours. I put on a suit. They do makeup and shit. You know, because you're in the industry. He has a makeup. Yeah,
Starting point is 00:58:58 he looks very young, but he's also worked before the, I've seen it. But literally, I'm on there for, like, I feel like 20 minutes, and I make an appointment viewing of the show,
Starting point is 00:59:09 and I'm not even on the show, bro. I, like, DVR did and shit. Hollywood. That's exactly what happened to YouTube. Just having everybody like, Make sure you're two in a ballers. It's going to be sweet. I was like, yeah, I was like, it's not a big role.
Starting point is 00:59:22 I'm on. So here it was, Hawk. My scene was on the TV in the show. Bro. They put me on a little TV, like at a bar. You know, like I was a media member. So it was incredibly embarrassing. I was in first kid with Simbad.
Starting point is 00:59:40 What? Are you serious? Are you serious? Yeah, yeah. There's a dance scene. How did you figure that? How did you get that? Shot and rich.
Starting point is 00:59:46 from Virginia. You know Major Payne has shot five minutes from where we live? That's right. I watched First Kid Last Week and Major Pain two weeks ago. Whoa. Yeah. Big Major Payne fan. This is me introducing my 10-year-old son.
Starting point is 01:00:03 Okay, that makes more sense. That's good. That's good. That's good. But Major Payne holds up. Oh, yeah. You can watch it as an adult. No, it does not hold up.
Starting point is 01:00:10 No. You, oh, there's no way. It's a great movie, but there's no way they can make movie today. Okay. Yeah, probably not. You say that for a lot of stuff in there. But that was filmed, that was filmed right here in Charlottesville, outside Charlottesville, Virginia. Anyways, I've been talking a lot about the receivers in, uh, in Las Vegas. We're talking about young receivers on this show and I don't know receivers that well. Like I, it's just a part of my game. Be like you talking about the D-line with confidence sometimes. It's tough for me. So who are the youngest
Starting point is 01:00:42 receivers in the game that are your favorites? Youngest receivers. in the game that are my favorites. I mean, Ruggs is awesome because he's, he's a burner. Anytime you have those levels of burn burn burners that, I mean, he's going to be hard to guard no matter where it is for as long as he has him. I really like Justin Jefferson out of Minnesota though. And the reason I like him is because I'm a fan of route running and I know everyone says that and that sounds cliche, but to play receiver, you have to be able to catch the football and you have to be able to separate and separating is tied to your ability to change direction, your understanding of coverage, leverages what DBs are thinking. And for Justin Jefferson to be so young, he has such a
Starting point is 01:01:24 deep understanding of that to know, like when I go inside, I know this DB is going to automatically assume I'm doing an end-breaking route. So it's a big chance and a risk to inside release on a route that I know I have to break out, but he's such an understanding. He routinely does things like that, pushes the boundaries. And that's why when you see him catch the ball, there's so much. much separation between him and DB. And that makes for easy throws from the quarterbacks. Quarterbacks love that. So I'm a big Justin Jefferson fan. And a guy on the other side of things today in that Steelers game, I remember you worked with Deonté Johnson, right? Yeah, yeah. Deontes is another same thing. Big, big time route runner is a guy who can separate and, you know, he has, he has speed.
Starting point is 01:02:04 He understands it. Man, I remember working him out. I worked Deontay Johnson out before he played a snap on offense at Toledo. He lived in Tampa. I was training there. somebody called me. I'm like, yo, just come to the gym with me. And he was like, you, teach me this. And I taught him like, I showed him like three things. And these are things that at that time I was a veteran with the Browns. Like coaches were pumping this into, our head. We had first round, second round, third round receivers that I couldn't get the grasp it. He was like 19. Everything I showed him, he picked up immediately. I text my agent. I text my brother and I text my friend. And I'm like, this guy is going to go to the NFL early. He's going
Starting point is 01:02:40 be a first day draft pick, which in our terms, old school guys is the first three rounds. One through three. He's going to be a star. And they're like, how do you know he hasn't played? And then lo and behold, here we are five, six years later. And the guys doing a big number number of receiver out in Pittsburgh. We need our royalties. Next deal he signs. 30% goes to the taunting penalties today, which were objectively ridiculous. I saw a few of them in real time. You know, I saw the kid in Seattle get, they missed the P.I. Did you see this?
Starting point is 01:03:14 The Reed kid. He tackles Julio or I don't know who it was. And then they don't throw the flag there and he gets up and looks at him and walks away and they throw a flag for taunting. Where are you on this taunting stuff? I am a receiver. I know
Starting point is 01:03:30 we get a diva type persona. But I am very old school football. I am from Western Pennsylvania. I was taught football a certain way. And if you start taking away the ability to talk shit, to get in people's faith, like our whole job is to hit each other as hard as you can. Like so I mean,
Starting point is 01:03:52 I am not the kind of person that is like, oh, somebody hit him too hard. He yelled at him. He taunted. Like, do you know what has, and I'm 5'7, Chris? Yeah, I know. So for you, you probably just go up.
Starting point is 01:04:04 It's like, oh, it's just my job. You don't understand the mental space that I would have. have to get in to go into NFL game because I'm like if I don't think this way yes I might die out here yeah so I have to like so I am whatever it takes to see that and people get penalties and it decide games like I'm like yo man at some point we got to we got to get back to the sanctity of football and that's what I feel like we're like chipping away at I just think it's the owner somebody we were talking about earlier like why are they making an emphasis and by the way like you know, I don't think the sky is falling
Starting point is 01:04:38 because I think the NFL reads their mentions a little bit. I think they did it with OPI a couple years ago. I think it was early in the season. We had that rash of OPI penalties. We had the reviews and people were like, nah, fuck this. You know, like, we don't want this. And those penalties went away. It was the same thing with
Starting point is 01:04:54 roughing one year. They always over-emphasized early. So I'm just hoping that's what happens. But I do think it's the owners just grasping for control. You know, I really do. Like, somebody says, where is this coming from. It's not coming from the fans, obviously. It's coming from the people that run the league.
Starting point is 01:05:10 They're the owners. And they are feeling like they're not controlling the dudes on the field. And I think they're getting desperate and they're like, we don't want to see any of this bullshit. I don't agree with it. I love it. And as a player, I never felt taunted. I was more pissed off that something like negative happened than like, hey,
Starting point is 01:05:27 my opponent reacted in that way based off the play he made. I deserve it. If I didn't make the play, I deserve you telling me I'm trash and I'm not going to maybe to feed my family next week. Like that's, that was the expectation that I had when I didn't make the point. Now, don't touch me.
Starting point is 01:05:42 Yeah, yeah, no, no, because we know what that, we know what we know we go next level with that. Yeah, don't touch me.
Starting point is 01:05:46 You can say whatever you want. And usually, I was the guy to like kind of say something under my breath to try to get somebody else to touch me. That was my whole thing. Oh yeah. It was like a little bit of an Instagram. So,
Starting point is 01:05:57 um, hey, it's Hawk on every platform. All of them. Everywhere. All of them. We like, uh,
Starting point is 01:06:03 LinkedIn, only fans. LinkedIn, Hawk. Toledo Rockets message board. Telete. Email is Hawk. Reddit. Reddit.
Starting point is 01:06:11 Yeah. Everything. Doesn't matter. I'm there. Where can we find you this fall besides everywhere? Yeah. Yeah. Everywhere.
Starting point is 01:06:18 I'm going to be, I got, I'm on the NFL network. So I do game day view, total access, game day final, game day live, all those shows. Amazon. I'll be on NFL comment box. NFL Next. NFL Next live. Also host a show with Roku called Roku recommends. If you're into streaming and you like film and TV shows,

Starting point is 01:06:52 You're missing out. Oh, yeah, absolutely. It's like a Rokuception, smart TV. Thank you, Andrew Hawkins. Appreciate you, bro. My pleasure, guys. Thanks for having me. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:07:02 After years of fine print contracts and getting ripped off by big wireless providers, if we've learned anything, it's that there's always a catch. So when I first heard that Mint Mobile offers premium wireless service starting at just 15 bucks a month, I thought, what's the catch? But after speaking with them and using their service, it all made sense. There isn't a catch, okay? Mint Mobile's secret sauce is that they're the first company to sell wireless service online only. By cutting out retail stores, there's no crazy overhead costs that get passed down to you in the form of mystery fees.
Starting point is 01:07:38 Instead, Mint just passes on sweet savings direct to you. Look, guys, Mint Mobile is a really good deal. You get premium wireless for just 15 bucks a month. You can keep your same phone number along with your existing contact, so there's no headaches involved. I love that. The best part is Mint Mobile has a seven-day money-back guarantee. To get your new wireless plan for just 15 bucks a month, and get the plan shipped to your door free,
Starting point is 01:08:05 go to mintmobile.com slash greenlight. That's mintmobile.com slash greenlight. Cut your wireless bills to 15 bucks a month at mintmobile.com slash greenlight. Hey, I'm tired of calling these fucking things superlatives. Superlatives is a stupid word. Stupid word. Nobody says that.
Starting point is 01:08:30 When's the last time you heard somebody say superlatives? Outside of this show, you're saying? Yeah, dude. Yeah. Probably high school, English. Yeah, not good. I think we got to dumb it down a little bit. What should we call these?
Starting point is 01:08:44 Awards. I think that works. Okay. I might want to check and see if anybody else calls, does awards. What about, like, prizes? Trophies. Okay. Medals, trophies.
Starting point is 01:09:00 Sunday trophies. What do you think? Catchy? Man, the show comes out on a Monday. Yeah. Right? Monday's Marvel's
Starting point is 01:09:09 Masterpieces That's right That's right read Mondays Mondays Mondays mentions Ooh I'd like to mention
Starting point is 01:09:19 some players May we begin Yes We just segment Right there That's how it's done That's how the pros do it Sunday superl
Starting point is 01:09:30 Oh Sunday superlatives We're never going back To that bullshit That was like some shit We didn't even know Why we kept using That word the last two years Did you guys
Starting point is 01:09:40 noticed that at home that that word sucks superlatives what exactly don't you like about it? Taylor's nodding is that well fucking say something Taylor Taylor's back there like yeah that word sucks I'm like bro you've been here months if I had something in my teeth would you tell me
Starting point is 01:09:58 happens to me all the time now with Invisaline In a good way Invisaline In a good way because they're you know fuckers were in there like like shoppers on Black Friday Those are what my teeth were like months ago Invisaline now I'm getting like Peppercorn
Starting point is 01:10:13 stuck in there. I got some mention and to do. Let's mention some players. Let's start with the first mention. Best flight, worst flight. What say you? Best flight for me is Buffalo Bills, because I think I handed out Miami Dolphins as a stone cold lock just
Starting point is 01:10:30 a couple days back. Buffalo's now, you know, good headspace. Hey, we are good. Yeah, it was scary there for a second. It was touching go getting beat by the Steelers, the team that everybody knows is not actually good. They ran the ball, single Terry broke off a long one Josh Allen looked
Starting point is 01:10:46 Still fumbling the ball They fumbled the ball four times last week They fumbled again today Dig, Sanders, Beasley, Knox all involved You shut out of Well, what Can in theory be a good offense
Starting point is 01:10:59 Two goes out Not gonna be a good offense Jacobi Point being Buffalo Bills feel a lot better about themselves winning 35 to nothing in week two Than they did losing it home to Pittsburgh Do we know what the hell is going on with Tua
Starting point is 01:11:11 A rib? He's a He's out for how long? Bruce Rib. Bruce Ribs, he's going to be okay. Yeah, yeah. He's MRIs tomorrow. He's tough. He's going to be okay.
Starting point is 01:11:23 But yeah, it's a big deal for the bills there. Same time zone. We're going north? Yeah, we're going north. You get places in a hurry on those charters. Let me tell you. Yeah, you sure do. You figure of flight, oh, no, this is going to be three and a half hours.
Starting point is 01:11:35 Nah, friend, hour 45. Is that a charter flex from you? Oh, I know a thing or two. Yeah, about a charter. Charter. Yeah. Shout out Miami Air International. And a big deal for the bills is that this was basically,
Starting point is 01:11:50 this could have been one of those like revenge games, you know, Miami all mad about the second time they played, right? That's the big revenge game coupled with the, are we actually good this year game? You know what I mean? Like there were a lot of nerves for this team coming off last week's loss, but Miami, not the same team as the Steelers defensively. The way you can beat Josh Allen is to rush four
Starting point is 01:12:12 and do it successfully. That's not how Miami's built. So, I mean, good gut check for them, losing out the gate, big win for them. And a good flight. Speaking of a front four, Bill's home to the football team next week, and then they have the Texans. You like facing those two a lot better at 0 and 2, the 1-1. For sure. I'm going to go with the, there's a couple choices here.
Starting point is 01:12:36 Titans are the Raiders. I mean, you can look at it one or two ways, and I'll let you help me select, but, you know, when it comes to the Raiders, 1 p.m. coming off a really emotional short week, and that's a 1 p.m. being a West Coast team. Like, that's early for those guys. And in spots like that, I feel like every time I see the Raiders play those spots under John Gruden, I don't know if this is backed up by trends and statistics,
Starting point is 01:13:01 but if you saw them play the Atlanta Falcons late last year in that spot on the East Coast, I wasn't going to bet them again until the end of, time, like not betting them in a 1 p.m. spot on the East Coast. So big for them to not only win a big game on a short week after playing a physical team going on the road and beating another physical team, if nothing else, a physical football team. And maybe you got a tailwind coming home. Think about what time you get home. Exactly. Time zones. That's a tiebreaker. Yeah. Yeah. Take off in the east at five o'clock. Land at five o'clock. Yeah. Something like you go backwards.
Starting point is 01:13:41 It's crazy how that works. Still don't make sense to me time zones. The other option is the Titans, right? Because they overcome having to kick a ball to win a football game, which is tough for them. Dr. Fax had a great point. He said the Titans have had like 20 kickers since like the last three years. And he was like, think about how many kickers have been inside that building.
Starting point is 01:14:02 Like every time they work a kicker out or every time they have that opening or make a change, like four kickers come in, kick a bunch of balls in the indoor. And they're like, who's going to get? get fired next here. That's so many kickers. We talked about the Washington football team in their history of quarterbacks last 30 years. Washington quarterback is a Tennessee kicker and they survived the kicking game to win. That's a big win for them, especially because it gets the AFC South on the board. Teams not named the Houston Texans had not won until they pulled that horseshoe out of their ass up there in Seattle.
Starting point is 01:14:38 So big win for them. I still don't think they look the same in the past game, dude. Like they look great on the ground, late, but they don't look the same yet in the past game. Now, we could get some growing out, you know, but some guy on Twitter told us to suck it this afternoon because you said Julio was washed and I said the Titans didn't look the same. He said that I said Julio was washed.
Starting point is 01:15:02 I don't know. You might have said Julio was washed. Say a lot of words. Can't keep track of all of them. Yeah, that's true. Long pod. So I'm actually going to go with the Titans here. I think it's a great.
Starting point is 01:15:12 Okay, but you lose some hours. You do lose some hours. I'm going to go with the 1 p.m. A lot of time on that plane. I feel like the drinks are plentiful on both of those planes. Like anybody with a white blazer that owns a football team and lives in a small version of the stadium he built, like definitely those plane rides fuck.
Starting point is 01:15:34 Do you think he rides on the? Some booze on that plane. No, but I think they have the best of the best of situations. I think they probably have a killer plane, and I think they probably have like, you know, the cocktails up there. Be careful though. Dehydration, airplane, drinking, football game, tort all, maybe some anti-inflammatories, pain meds, avoid.
Starting point is 01:15:59 Okay, so you played for three teams. Yeah. Well, some regimes more stricter, more, strict than others. Yeah, for sure. When it comes to plane rides home? Yeah, for sure. For sure.
Starting point is 01:16:12 Anybody like, hey, nah. Like, head rest, upright, seat back. Like, there were some coaches like that, but some coaches were also like, hey, plane rides are to have fun. Like, that's the old NFL. Like, I can remember going into the locker room in the Edward Jones Dome and unnamed, you know, equipment staff, dude, every week. Actually, one of my coaches would bring me a beer.
Starting point is 01:16:39 So I'd get a beer. I'd go sit in the back with one of my favorite coaches. He would bring me a beer. And then I go in the equipment room. And one of the equipment guys would have a, you know, a little bag of beer, like a bowling ball bag. You know, like the Jesus put his bowling ball in there. The guy would have like four butt lights because, you know,
Starting point is 01:16:59 where's St. Louis. So by the time I leave the Edward Jones dome, I got like five beers in me. And you're working at a deficit. So you always got to be careful. Like you get on playing with our old D-Line in St. Louis, you know, there would be a couple bottles of crown apple, you know? Gross.
Starting point is 01:17:16 Yeah, gross. But actually it wasn't that bad once you had your third, fourth crown apple at 30,000 feet. But you got to be careful because. Emergency exit row. You know, dryness. Air marshals. Yeah. Well, more so like the massive hangovers the next day.
Starting point is 01:17:35 I'll go worse playing ride Saints But really I don't feel that bad for the Saints Because I think everybody gets a mulligan I think this was their Mulligan game I don't know if people really do that in golf
Starting point is 01:17:48 But Think about all these people That were hurt today In that football game Michael Thomas, Treyquan Smith, Eric McCoy David on Yamada
Starting point is 01:17:56 On Yamada You see how I fucking nailed that one You were thinking I wasn't going to nail it I nailed it I barely even know her Marcus Davenport K-pass old K-pass there
Starting point is 01:18:08 K-Alexander Marshawn Lattimore C.J. Gardner Johnson, Will Lutz and eight offensive coaches. Eight offensive coaches. That's the big part. You can overcome the players the third string quarterback
Starting point is 01:18:21 was doing the substitutions, bro. Uh-oh. So this is a game, like listen, I thought they'd win it. You kind of erased that from your memory. They had 128 yards in this football game.
Starting point is 01:18:33 Name five people on the pan. Name three people in Panthers defense. I don't put you on the spot, but my point is... Brian Burns? Yeah, Brian Burns. My point is that they're not the steel curtain. I mean, they're improved. They've got some nice players,
Starting point is 01:18:47 but the Saints are putting up 128 yards against those guys. It's just not your weak. So I have the box score open and I was going to try to lie and sound smart. But none of these names are even, I couldn't even make you believe that I know who Julian Stanford is. Listen, there's some people that
Starting point is 01:19:07 have accounts to pro football focus and also the athletic and also all these websites and they know all the names. Dante Jackson. Yeah, listen. DeQuan Jones. I like Jeremy Chinn.
Starting point is 01:19:19 I think Derek Brown is going to come up a lot. Jack Thompson. The name J.C. Horn. Jay C. Horn. We love J.C. Horn. The NFL draft. So listen, this team is, this, this Panthers team is going places. I really do believe that Matt Rule, if you can keep Joe Brady around,
Starting point is 01:19:36 I think they're going places a little bit. I'm not saying they're going to the penthouse, but they're not going to be in the outhouse. Because look what they've done for Sam Darnold, you know, and just not being in New York, look what they've done for Sam Darnold, and look what the defense is done. It's improving a little bit.
Starting point is 01:19:51 Bad plane ride for them. And not going home either, which makes it worse. For the second week in a row, I will go Minnesota Vikings. Oh and two. They lose to Arizona 3433. They're up 20 to 7. Kicker misses a P.A.T. They're up at a couple other junctures,
Starting point is 01:20:13 including 30 to 24 in the third quarter. They have a shot to win at the end. Kicker misses. Kicker's going to go ahead and be my hollow man. Yeah, kicker, kicker for the Vikings for sure is going to be your hollow man. What you're going to do in a second. I just want to say this. Kyler Murray is, I mean, five, seven times. the entire room full of dudes simultaneously standing up going,
Starting point is 01:20:34 what the fuck? Or, oh my God, you Chris off the couch, COCs. There were like five COCs. I just want to say this about Kyler Murray. There's a couple plays of game right now that if you could just eliminate those, you'll be the best football player on Earth. If you could eliminate a couple plays a game, I know I'm being a little bit overreactive,
Starting point is 01:20:54 but when I watch him do some of the things I see him do, I feel like he could be the best football player on the, on planet for a six-month period. You know how it comes in waves? Like there's Patrick Mahomes gonna be here a while, but we have different flavors year-to-year. Lamar, that's kind of wearing off a little bit, although pending the end of this football game.
Starting point is 01:21:14 Like, Lamar's still electric, but for a year there, you were like, this is his sport. Kyler Murray, it could be your sport, but a couple throws a game. Also, Arizona, they got a tattooed white blocking tight end. I've never seen one of my life.
Starting point is 01:21:30 Huh. Have you ever seen a large white blocking tight end with tattoos? Well, you can find one on the Arizona Cardinals. His number is number 87. 4331 yards, 4 touchdowns for Kyloor Murray. Oh, I thought you were to say for that tight end. They also found a way to trick off a shovel pass. Now, are we going shovel for sure?
Starting point is 01:21:48 That's shovel pass, yeah. Okay. It's funny because a lot of people say shuffle. Yeah. I say shovel. I don't know why. Because it's like a little shovel. Yeah, and you love doing that because you've got a dance called the shovel and everything.
Starting point is 01:21:59 but Max Williams with two axes. There's two really good maxes with red hair in the NFL. You got a Max Crosby. He also went seven for 94. I know, but look how fucking big this guy is. I don't want to get in that guy's way. Not right now. Maybe back in the day.
Starting point is 01:22:16 Look how big he is. What are his measurables? 64-252. He looks way bigger than that. Way bigger than that. Why does he look so much bigger than that? Why does he look 6-8-3-30? It's the tattoos.
Starting point is 01:22:29 Maybe it is. but Kyler Murray Electric Vikings I was so thankful because you know I'm sinking the Viking ship this year sink the ship
Starting point is 01:22:39 8 and a half was the number I got the Vikings win total out good for you good for you good for me and the Phillies are within one game
Starting point is 01:22:47 of first place oh snap yeah two large bets all right so hollow man Greg Joseph miss PAT missed potential
Starting point is 01:22:54 game winning field goal and he's South African I was like, oh, I kick or Mr. Kay. He probably watches the spring box. But then I saw it he was South African. You ever see the movie about the spring box? No. And I feel bad for the guy
Starting point is 01:23:10 because I've never met a South African I didn't like. Tough, tough, tough, tough take, dude. David Wibbley. Apartheid. We ended it. Oh my God, dude. What a tough take. You know, it was almost as tough as Steve Spagnola
Starting point is 01:23:26 taking us to see the movie about the spring box. with Matt Damon during training camp. Is that your South African? This is very revealing. David Wibbley. David Wibbley. There you go. I know it's your friend.
Starting point is 01:23:41 I didn't really. It's your friend from back in the day. But one day we had the day off and this is back when we had two a days in St. Louis now. Like so people were fucking hurting, man. You had to scrape us off of the turf in Earth City like a like a piece of scrapple on a frying pan. We were just flattened after these practices
Starting point is 01:24:00 And we had the day off Of course it's 110 degrees Guys we're gonna do something fun on our day off Which is never good news when the coach says that Because you're always gonna do some stupid shit And I'd rather just stay at home and play PlayStation and pack dips And Eat Edibles
Starting point is 01:24:17 No I gotta go to a movie with Matt Damon About Australian rules football It looked like a B movie Was it was it a movie about soccer? or rugby? Okay. As you can see, I didn't absorb a lot of the plot. I was mostly thinking, God, my back hurts.
Starting point is 01:24:37 I'm squeezed in between like Cliff Ryan and fucking Victor Adionju, and it's my day off. My shoulders hurt. These are normal people movie seats here. What the fuck are we doing, Steve? Invictus. It's been 10 years.
Starting point is 01:24:51 It's been Invictus. Morgan Freeman was in there. You know, he used to get drunk at Mellow Mushroom on University Avenue. That's what they say. Charlottesville, Virginia. They shot Evan Almighty here. Hello.
Starting point is 01:25:02 So this David Wibbley, he said, you know the golfer, Reteef Gousin, who is also South African? He said you pronounce it, Ritif Hwassen. That's a true story. That's a true story. Stop it. Yes. No. Yes.
Starting point is 01:25:21 Divid Wibbley said, hey, you guys are saying Reteef Gousen all wrong. It's Rittif Hwassen. You know there's a You know the guy that backs up Tyrod Taylor Has the most golfer name in the history of football Who is that these days? Davis Mills Oh Davis Mills Stanford
Starting point is 01:25:38 There should be a third on the end of his name Yeah Davis Mills Stanford I think I said he'd be better than Trevor Lawrence Or something like that actually Taylor might back me up on that Right about now Yeah I want an apology from everybody that made fun of me all summer saying that Trevor Lawrence was overrated he said Trevor Lawrence was overrated
Starting point is 01:25:59 Yes Taylor is claiming I'm mostly when people say things like that I'm like check out the balls on that guy I'd love to say that I'm too scared too scared so kudos My Hollow man yours was the kicker from the Vikings and by the way I called that
Starting point is 01:26:15 called it we were all sitting in the room they said how do you feel about this Kirk Cousins drive Reed am I lying I mean I'm just I'm not good at this thing you know TBI football so I like to be right sometimes. You were on it. TBI, 9 plays, 58 yards.
Starting point is 01:26:29 Yeah, and what did I say? I said, they're going to end up, they're going to get in field goal range and miss a kick. Because that's what they do, bro. That's what they do. My hollow man, Jonathan Abram, okay? Jonathan Abram of the Las Vegas Raiders is victorious tonight, but all he can think about. The 59 other plays, like, hey, however they went, you could add three picks. You could have been like the guy in Tampa, who, by the way,
Starting point is 01:26:55 I'm just going to give it to him right now. It's the Frank Gore, St. Louis Rams Memorial, doing something awesome in obscurity award. That goes to the guy in Tampa. Mike Edwards, two pick sixes. Are you kidding me? Nobody's watching that game. Thanks a lot, Atlanta.
Starting point is 01:27:14 Anyways, I'm talking about another DB bouncing back. Balkans would have covered, if not for those two pick sixes. Really? Yeah. Guy like that turns the tide, big time. I'm sure Vegas. Damn near won a lot of money if it wasn't for that guy. Everybody on the bucks.
Starting point is 01:27:30 I'm sure that was a very popular bet this week. I'm talking about Jonathan Abram because he got Josh Norman, but he got figuratively humped. It wasn't a stiff arm so much as it was Najee Harris. Did you see this? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Was like, hey, let me, can I touch your underarm? And he was like, sure.
Starting point is 01:27:47 And then he was like, I'm going to flip you over and your feet are going to go above your head. When something like that happens, you on a football field, like everything's in slow motion. thinking about your mentions sometimes like when things like that are going on. On the sideline too. Like could have ushered him out of bounds.
Starting point is 01:28:03 Oh yeah. Instead he was lifted up and put down. And people wonder why, you know, I said this about that Jalen Hertz got hit on the sideline today and I actually sided with the Niners. I said, what do you want this guy to do?
Starting point is 01:28:16 Lamar's doing a speed up, slow down thing, you know, stiff arming Sorensen before we came in here to shoot this pod. Like, you cannot slow up on the side of, sideline. And that's why. That is why. I mean, not with Naji. Okay, he's the biggest guy in the
Starting point is 01:28:33 Steelers front seven, including the offensive linemen. They're not big anymore. They're not scary anymore. My hollow man is Jonathan Abram. But Dexter Lawrence update. On sides. It's confirmed, huh? Is that how we're saying that? Because he's off sides. Yeah, he was on sides. You're saying he was on sides. It's been confirmed. It's been confirmed. He's confirmed. it perfectly. Have we confirmed this or have we just being giant? I mean he moves when the snap moves. Confirmed. A game gets decided because of
Starting point is 01:29:03 negligence by an official and you get like a sorry email. Legit, they send like sorry emails. NFL offers no apology to the Giants said off sides was correct call. Oh, well I thought I thought he was off sides that night but I didn't look that closely. I just was more
Starting point is 01:29:19 pissed off about Thursday night time machine but excited about my teaser hitting. Dexter Lawrence, man, I said the other night. No, you don't listen to the pod, but... I actually did listen to your recap. How'd you like that? It was good. Yeah? Yeah. You're actually telling the truth right now. It's shocking to me. Yeah, Dexter Lawrence is my hollow man. How'd you know I was telling the truth? I can just tell when you're telling the truth. I was like, yeah. Like if you're placating me, I can tell as well. Yeah, I was. So,
Starting point is 01:29:45 uh, just, uh, indulge me for four seconds. No, he's off sides. Oh, really? I do think he's off sides. He's lined up really tight, dude. Look how tight he's lined up, bro. Look at my man 54's hands moving. He's snapping the ball. I know, but I think he's borderline lined up off sides. Okay. If I had to guess. If he's in the neutral
Starting point is 01:30:06 zone, he's in the neutral zone, but he's not moving earlier than he... No, and a lot of times you can get fucked moving with the ball, but I do think when you're that close to the ball, they say to get off on the ball. So that's a double-edged sword, but I do think he looks like he's a bit further up than the other guys.
Starting point is 01:30:23 Some guys can't help lining up in the neutral zone. Derek Barnett used to always do it. And you tell him like you'd warn him and then he'd do it because some guys just don't realize, I don't know if they have long ass necks or something, but just because your hands are somewhere doesn't mean your heads off sides. Some guys don't get that, Dexteran Lawrence maybe.
Starting point is 01:30:40 Here's a dumb question. Yeah. How do you prevent against that? Do you always know what the line of scrimmage is? Do you look at yard lines? You just look at the guy next to you? Do you look at the ball? How do you do it?
Starting point is 01:30:51 Do you look to the sideline and see where the stick is? I tried to, a lot of times I would look at the official, like a receiver and do the point. And I felt cool because he'd be like, after like three times of me doing it, like, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey. Eventually he'd be like, yeah, dude, you're on sides. I'm not your referee dad here. Yeah, well, don't throw a flag on me without warning me.
Starting point is 01:31:09 So when I'm screaming neutral zone on the first play of the first quarter, fellas getting a warning. They're going to warn guys. Yeah, they're going to warn them. Viewing party, I'm going to go Cam Newton watching all these quarterbacks getting hurt. Yeah. Yeah, that's right. Tyrod Taylor, hurt.
Starting point is 01:31:26 Tua left the Dolphins game, second possession, bruised ribs. We talked about that. Carson Wentz left in the fourth quarter right ankle injury. I got to say this, not to spin his injury into a positive because, you know, like he's not on the Eagles anymore, so I still love the guy, except for the vaccination thing. What are we doing? Fourth quarter, Aaron Donald, who's been clipping his ankles all game,
Starting point is 01:31:48 like just chasing him, like, because at least Quinn Nelson, who was really classy after the game was like, hey, I was very honored to play against like the best player in football in my opinion. They were two gladiators. They were like they were two superheroes, you know, like buildings crumbling and shit
Starting point is 01:32:04 around them. But at least he slows Aaron down. And so Aaron was on Carson's ankles the whole game. He ended up on his ankles and the fact that Carson's leg didn't do a Dak Prescott was pretty fucking impressive. That guy he may have an injury thing going
Starting point is 01:32:20 right now but he's also pretty him flexible. Carson Wentz hurt as well. We don't know what's going to be going on with that. It didn't look good. It didn't look like a lateral ankle roll. Andy Dalton injured his knee in the first half. But of course, you know who's backing him up.
Starting point is 01:32:35 And then Baker Mayfield shoulder popped out, attempting a tackle. I was pretty sure it was just Stinger. He got back in the game quick. But there's some vacancies here for Cam Newton. I think it had to be interesting thinking about where he's sitting, watching these games and what calls and what chatter is going on behind the scenes. because I'm sure his phone is blowing up a little bit. Viewing party, I would love to be me
Starting point is 01:32:58 watching the 73rd Primetime Emmy Awards going on right now. Yeah. Who were you really excited about? Oh, Ted Lassow. Cheeks. Queens Gambit, I think, was up for... Oh, yeah, that looks cool.
Starting point is 01:33:16 Looks cool? You just don't watch things, huh? I do a podcast that takes a lot of effort. I have two kids, not one kid, two kids. And I also run a foundation. You have a foundation? Yeah, I got a foundation. Yeah? Got a foundation in these.
Starting point is 01:33:33 But yeah, suffice to say, I don't have time to watch shows and shit. So, a lot of mentions to get ready for. Do you want to hear all the shows I watch since? No, I think we're, I think the podcast. I think we're off the rails here. But hopefully you like mentions better than superlatives. It's a bit looser. It's quite a bit looser.
Starting point is 01:33:53 You know, it's just one of these is a long day. I didn't think it was the greatest slate either. Honestly, if we're being honest, I didn't think today was the greatest slate, nor was it like the most exciting. But there was one moment in the four o'clock right at the end of the witching hour here, you know, Philip Rivers time.
Starting point is 01:34:12 You have kick going through the uprights for the win in L.A., Dallas. And then on the other TV, right next to it, same time somehow. same time, syncs up correctly. You've got Cardinals beating the Vikings because of a miss kick. And then on third TV, you have Tennessee starting a drive that would subsequently tie the game and send it overtime.
Starting point is 01:34:34 Like, that is the NFL. Like, that is the power of the NFL, dude. Kate Winslet, mayor of Easttown? I like Kate Winslet. Olivia Coleman, the Crown? Haven't seen the Crown. But no, you're right about the football. Yeah, I had a lot of football games to watch.
Starting point is 01:34:50 It was, hey, by the way, that L.A. Stadium, I do want to say this. Billions of pounds. That's how much that fucking scoreboard weighs. I don't remember how many billions, but it's billions. Enough to kill me. And I used to have this really irrational fear
Starting point is 01:35:05 of the Dallas Jumbotron falling and just crushing us all. At least they had the decency in L.A. to make it a big circle with a big hole in the middle. So if it fell, there's actually a chance I don't get crushed. It's going to hit all the scrubs on the sideline.
Starting point is 01:35:20 I would hope it would. Should have been better. I just hope it wouldn't have been first or second down. some of my late stops. Should have worked on your craft a little harder. Yeah. If I was just... You wouldn't have been killed by this scoreboard.
Starting point is 01:35:31 Exactly. Damn. You know where the SoFi Stadium video board was made? Where? Logan, Utah. Really? Which is close to Ogden, Utah. Really?
Starting point is 01:35:44 We gave a shout out to Ogden, Utah. They're just making... Hello! Hello! They're just making big, big, fucking scoreboards out there. What do you do here in Ogden? What's the biggest industry? You're at a diner. You're at a diner. You're like, what do they do out here talking to locals?
Starting point is 01:35:59 That's, that's, uh, video scoreboard weighs 2.2 million pounds, 70,000 square feet. Just a couple zeros. Just a couple zeros. 70,000 square feet. It's incredible. Chargers are still the chargers by the way. My goodness. Goal charges. Goal. The fucking sequence where Justin Hurst, through the ball to Jared Cook, but they had an illegal shift that nobody could see where it was and they flagged him for that
Starting point is 01:36:32 and then flagged Jared Cook for a taunting because his name's Cook, which he like was eating. And I'm like, that doesn't work, you're supposed to cook. No, he was cooking, he was cooking, he wasn't eating, he was sheffing some shit up. So it worked perfectly and the refs are too dumb to know he's not taunting, he's cooking. I think he spun the ball first too,
Starting point is 01:36:50 but that was just setting his little clock in the kitchen That's what he was doing. He was setting the clock in the kitchen and then he's cooking. Timing is important. What do you call that a timer? A timer? He was setting the timer and then he was cooking.
Starting point is 01:37:02 And the ref was like, hey, 15 yards on you, 5 yards for the legal shift. Everybody at home was like, what the fuck's going on? No idea. Still kind of don't know. But I think what it was was if they accepted the 15-yarder, they would have had to accept the touchdown. I've never seen anything like it in football. Have you ever seen that before? So they had to take the 5-yarder.
Starting point is 01:37:24 instead of the 15-yarder. And then, of course, you get a grounding penalty on Justin Herbert. The charges trick this whole thing off. Well, not even a grounding. That's when they called a sack. Right. Yeah, when he was backpedal. We were like, what's going on here?
Starting point is 01:37:38 Like, get control of this game, guys. Yeah. Also in unprecedented football, the halftime scored that game was 1411. Yeah. That was the first time ever. That shocked me. First time. Thanks for rubbing that in, fellas.
Starting point is 01:37:52 My first ever bet. you know professional gambling well we'll talk about that doctor fax about to come in and and uh help us out with some gambling and fantasy hey it's a doozy stay tuned my OA mention
Starting point is 01:38:06 Sealee Suliafu of Missouri State fame did you see him the other night no you didn't see him oh my god look this guy up right now he's an upback or whatever you want to call it for the Missouri State return team and the guy somehow
Starting point is 01:38:23 catches a kick late in the fourth. In fact, they're getting ready to have a big drive. So just this big man even catching the ball. His number's 44. He's got long hair hanging out of the back of his helmet. He looks awesome. He's chucking guys around. Literally, there's people that are done with the play.
Starting point is 01:38:40 They're trying to tackle him. It takes 14 guys on the other team. So it's a victory just to catch the football for him and just not to fumble it. But he is throwing people around like their children. This guy was 18 last year. Presumably. He was a kid last year.
Starting point is 01:38:57 This is a grown man. Starts at the 32 finishes at the 25, but the best minus 7 yard returning overseas. I mean, count the people that he throws probably seven to nine little people that he's throwing on the ground. It does remind me of, you know, when people ask you how many three-year-olds
Starting point is 01:39:13 could you until they overtake you? Yep. That is that mailbag question personified. Yep. You know, eventually they're going to get me, but for the first couple 35 seconds, I'm going to be
Starting point is 01:39:25 CialA Soliafu. So shout out to him. Replacements vibe, Reid said, like the guy in the replacements. O-A Award, shout-out to him. The O-A mention,
Starting point is 01:39:35 and I'd also like to mention that O-Way just secured a win for the Baltimore Ravens. He forced to fumble on Clyde. Are you fucking kidding me right now, Reed? That's a mention and a half. Wow.
Starting point is 01:39:50 Are you fucking fucking kidding me? Breaking news. I just lost a lot of money, Reed. Oh shit, I did too. That's not really how I wanted to learn that, but... Save it. You save it, please.
Starting point is 01:40:05 I'm taking this back. I'm calling it something else. This O-A guy lost me some money. He's already got two sacks. Well, no, he's got one sack. He ran somebody down last week. It's kind of coverage sack. It's so fast. This has got to stay in.
Starting point is 01:40:17 Even though you've already heard the Sunday night football review, this has got to stay in. No question. This is outstanding stuff. Hey, you told me recently, you know, no need to be the richest man in the graveyard, you know. Yeah, no, no, no. There's something that's important to you.
Starting point is 01:40:30 Yeah. Spend the dollar bill. Is this where you ask for a raise? Oh, no. Okay. Could I? No. Well, I think if, if you looked at comparable podcasts in the...
Starting point is 01:40:41 I think you'd be surprised. Do you want to open that can of the worms? I don't know. I don't know. I wonder about... You're probably calling Rissillo's hack. You should fight. He's hack ass.
Starting point is 01:40:52 I don't have a talent agent. I have an entertainment attorney. Rissilo's probably going. Fuck you. Game ball. Ryan. Game ball. Derek Henry, 35 carries 182 yards, three touchdowns.
Starting point is 01:41:05 But here's the crazy part about it. Can't spell Derek Henry without R-Y-E-N. Stupid-ass name. Not Derek Ryan, you're saying. I don't want Derek Henry coming here and beating you up. Like Chara's going to come in here one day. have to beat up read. Just signed with the New York Islander
Starting point is 01:41:26 so he's getting farther away. He's getting further away. Yeah. What a wimp. Distance. So it's actually farther, not further. What a wimp he is.
Starting point is 01:41:33 No, he's, he's running from us. Yeah. Back pedaling. Anyways, Derek Henry's going to come in here and beat you up off a misunderstanding. 35 carries 182 yards, three touchdowns.
Starting point is 01:41:42 Second half, 147 rush yards, three touchdowns. I mean, put the team on his back. Doe. The team on my back, though. Beast mode.
Starting point is 01:41:50 Same stadium. Beast mode used to do it. He did it. Did all this with blood on his, arm. Did you know that? He was bleeding from his arm. I saw that. Looked cool. Pax called him the kirtchilling of football. Bloody sock. Bloody sleeve, bloody sock. Guy just totally dented the Seahawks. And for six quarters there, I'm thinking Seahawks are going to Super Bowl. And they're not, they're not winning these stupid games anymore where they look terrible and they, they snatch
Starting point is 01:42:18 victory from the jaws of defeat or defeat from the jaws of victory, whatever it is. They're doing both there in Seattle with regularity. This was vintage Seattle. Find a way to make this game stupid and lose us money. Second game ball to Cooper Cup. Nine receptions, 163 yards, two tuds. Tuddies, tuds, whatever you want.
Starting point is 01:42:41 Tuddies. On 11 targets, long of 44. Rams beat the Colts, 27 to 24. On the road, two and O. Stafford's got a favorite receiver. Yeah, and Clayton Kershaw has got to be shaking in his boots, right? Because him and Stafford seemed kind of close.
Starting point is 01:42:59 Ten targets last week? How many times is Clayton Kirschaw ever caught a ball from Matt Stafford? Several times. In the backyard, but not in so far. I just feel like Clayton Kirshaw is probably, that should have been my viewing party. What's Clayton Kirshar doing? You know
Starting point is 01:43:14 like where you do the fake clap? Please clap. Go, Matt. Jeb Bush. Almost on my fantasy team. I opted for Robert Woods evidently I should have just asked well that was hey somebody in LA we couldn't have known well I could
Starting point is 01:43:29 have texted a friend you might have some sources yeah didn't I'm gonna bring on facts for the nightcap shall we we shall we shall Twitter we got our shit together okay we got a real handle reflective of the name of the podcast guys we did it
Starting point is 01:43:47 applaud and now go follow us at green light Twitter is at green light we also have a new YouTube name as well green light tube hope you guys like that nightcap fax is here fax is up then how much you think fax ways all right so fax and i were trying i was trying to guess i was going to say 294 i'm going to say 276 enough to throw you through a table for sure 276 that's way too light yeah just carrying it whoa whoa whoa whoa two no you already had your guess bro you made us wait
Starting point is 01:44:26 five minutes to guess and then you had your guess and now it's over. I thought it was going to be like a warmer colder situation. Last time I checked I was two 92 so you were very close. Damn I'm pretty good at this. You know I'm pretty good at this quick math you notice how quick I did that math last week you guys were like oh facts who we giving our nightcap to Greg rousseau two sacks helping me out with my fantasy bill's defense gave me 22 points today. Damn that's 35 nothing shut out. out. And after the week I had last week, boy, did I need that. You needed it. You needed it. You were 0 in one. Yes. But it looks like I'm going to be one in one after this week. Beating the commissioner, Lijey Doosable this week. Oh, dudes. You're in the league with dues.
Starting point is 01:45:14 Yeah. Shout out to do you. I think currently his team is done. And I think he's maybe up one point. And I have Aaron Rogers and Crosby to play tomorrow night. I think you're safe. I would love. love to say that, but Aaron Rogers gave me one point last week. Yeah, Detroit basketball coming in tomorrow night tonight. Well, I was wrong about Greg Rousseau. At least I'm not saying he's, he's arrived yet for two sacks, but I didn't think he was going to be a contributor this quick. And I sure he wasn't my favorite D-end out of the group, so let me own up to that one right away. Beginning of the season, you know, like, sacks going to come from anywhere. And I didn't see the sacks. Maybe the sacks were a little bit fluky. I don't know. You got to see him,
Starting point is 01:45:55 but they all count. And nightcap to Greg Rousseau, but also nightcap to DeNeil Hunter. You got it. DeNeil Hunter, who is an absolute alien, dude. I don't even know, you know, every year I feel like you sit here and you wager on who's going to have the most sacks, you wager on who's going to be the defensive player year,
Starting point is 01:46:15 all this stuff. And I know he plays in Minnesota and he doesn't talk a lot. And kind of like, how do you say the first name? My man is probably really, Realistically, the guy who's got the best chance of doing like 20 sacks year to year, outside of like an Aaron Donald. He's just that talented. If Minnesota were a lot better, it'd be even better.
Starting point is 01:46:39 But he is in some high-scoring ball games. They can get buckets offensively from time to time when Kirk breaks out of that plexiglass ceiling. He's creative for himself. And he got three buckets today on Kyler Murray. The conversation we had about finishing and whatever. Like this guy catching him three times, hitting him three times. Like actually bringing him to the ground three times is incredible to me. So, Danielle Hunter, nightcap, and what are we drinking?
Starting point is 01:47:08 Angels envy again or what is this? Redemption. Redemption. Redemption. Chris, what's the biggest sack you've ever seen? Like in person? Yeah. I'll tell you what it was.
Starting point is 01:47:27 Chris Turner. and Graham. Marina Graham right in front of me. Brandon Graham, Sacking. Fucking Tom Brady, dude. Took the ball right off him, dude. Took the ball right off him.
Starting point is 01:47:43 Right there, I knew we were going to be world champions, even if they cut the ball back again and threw away on Mary. It pounced around for 17 seconds. Biggest sack I ever got was a gift from Chris Long about 10 years ago. Maryland? No, the love sack. It's a huge adult size. bag.
Starting point is 01:48:00 Oh yeah, give you a bean bag, bro. And it came in a sack that looked like a smaller bean bag. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:48:10 And when you unzip it, it's the size of this room. That's dope. Biggest sack I've ever seen Student Activity Center at St. Ann's Bellfield School. It's a size of a building. We take this shot real quick
Starting point is 01:48:24 when we talk about it. It's a big old building. I remember they put that building and they were like, okay, a bunch of 12-year-olds. Here's what we're going to call it. Here's the new building.
Starting point is 01:48:35 It's called this dude, Activity Center. We're going to call it the sack. Boy, do we get some mileage out of that. Hey, here we are 20 years later. All right, so gambling,
Starting point is 01:48:47 how do we do? This is the first week that you guys had some money to play with. Who won? Who won? What bets did you make? What do we give them, Reed?
Starting point is 01:48:54 Oh, a couple things. Go ahead, read. Go ahead, read. 100 bucks each making in Dr. Fax got $100 and we're going to keep up with this all year long we're to see who's the better gambler
Starting point is 01:49:06 That's sick I didn't know this was a competition Oh well sometimes you should just like Work hard when nobody's watching Okay facts I turned my $100 into zero dollars How about you? I turned my $100 into 95
Starting point is 01:49:25 Oh look at his face and 61 cents. And 61 cents. How did you do that? Fax, how did you win this contest? So, you fucking asshole. Not gonna lie. I had picked the Las Vegas Raiders, plus five.
Starting point is 01:49:43 This Los Angeles Rams money line, Dallas Cowboys money line, and then the Tennessee Titans money line. But here's the thing. I have really big fingers, and I pressed round robin for this instead of a parlay.
Starting point is 01:50:03 What are the buttons? Instead of the parlay, I clicked round robin. I don't even know what a round robin is, dude. And I didn't either, but I guess it gives you a little leeway that I could have lost.
Starting point is 01:50:15 I only had to win two out of four. Oh, I'm doing some round robins. But it's lesser payouts, obviously. Okay. So this ticket, it was $30 and I cashed out $95 and $61. Damn, dude, I'm doing Round Robbins. I made seven wagers with my $100.
Starting point is 01:50:40 Okay. A lot, my most, my most fun one. There were a couple. Okay, here was my favorite. And damn it if Tristan Viskayano didn't screw it up. I didn't know you can do this. I picked the Chargers Cowboys game to be a tie at halftime. kind of taking a page out of your book there, facts.
Starting point is 01:50:58 Yeah, facts. Facts move there. Very nearly 1414 and they were great big odds on that boy, plus 875. Oh my God, dude. Yeah. And then I also took DJ Shark to be first touchdown score in the Broncos Jags game
Starting point is 01:51:14 plus 1,200. Trevor Lawrence throws a touchdown pass to Marvin Jones Jr. I had a couple other parlays in here. Seahawks, cheese. I didn't go, that sounds chalky, didn't go chalky. Dolphins really screwed me up. I was big on the dolphins.
Starting point is 01:51:29 I was big on the bills. I was big on the Panthers. I didn't touch that. Got that one to hit. But hey, I can see why there's a hotline to call if you get addicted to it. Kind of fun. Yeah, there's a lot of dopamine and things like that. And just to throw it out, throw it out there, I'm checking my stats and I only, I've only bet $60.
Starting point is 01:51:52 So I still have $40. The rules were, I think you had to bet it all. So you're disqualified. No, no, tomorrow, Monday. Tomorrow, I said a game. Today is Monday. We still have a game. Tonight.
Starting point is 01:52:04 I still have $40 to play the night. Okay. To win more. What are you going to play? The Monday night football game. Okay, that's fine. You can play the Monday football game. He still has a technicality.
Starting point is 01:52:14 Yeah, I was told it was Sunday. Well, you weren't evidently told much at all because you, and we were told to put some bets in our parlies for Monday night to hold over. That's actually what we were told. Here's the deal. to see a hotline slate. Okay. I'll tell you how sick I am about fantasy while you look it up.
Starting point is 01:52:31 Okay. Could have played Devin Singletary, James White, got in W. Didn't do it. Elijah Mitchell, the damn Yahoo Sports App said he scored a touchdown apparently didn't. Then Jimmy Garapolo ran it in. That would have done it for me. Dallas and L.A. going to O.T. would have done it for me. Hey, how about, what did I say about my fantasy team?
Starting point is 01:52:48 I'm not even looking because I don't care about fantasy that much this week. I have 191 points. That's a lot. We do play two flex, but that's a ton of points. Yeah, Tyler Lockett, 31. Best deep ball tracker in the league. Brandon Cook's on my bench. Don't need him.
Starting point is 01:53:02 Yeah. It's nice to have him, 22 points. You won Logan Thomas? No, I might want Randall Cobb, though. Just all the Houston weapons from last year. I think he's going to go off tomorrow and I. You heard it here first. Christian Kirk, not catching a Hail Mary.
Starting point is 01:53:15 Might have done it for me? All right, so Bill's Broncos, Moneyline Parlay. Bet that twice. Bet it once was stoned, then bet it again 30 minutes later. Good thing. the Broncos one. Hawks, Pat's teaser. That was cool, except the Hawks forgot how to play football.
Starting point is 01:53:33 Colts Rams under 50. I had counted my chickens in a big way in the first half and damn near. Just forgot about that game and then the second half. Boy, howdy. You see the way they scored in that second half? Luckily, I took the Colts over 10 and a half in the second half. So I kind of a hedge there.
Starting point is 01:53:50 Bills, giving a field goal, easy. You know, the easy button? Yeah. Easy. Eagles, Niners. Some taken. Eagles Niners under 49 and a half, easy, bud. Yeah, I got that one.
Starting point is 01:54:03 Easy, bud. Unfortunately, parlayed with under Texans Browns, went over by four. Yep. I also had the cards, Vikes, over 50 and a half, as well as the bet that just almost covered backdoor was the Bears bangles over 44. If we'd have turned some of those picks into touchdowns, maybe I got a little bit more money in my pockets there. Do you know who is permitted to talk smack to me regarding fantasy?
Starting point is 01:54:32 Who? Also, I'd be over in the Chiefs' Ravens game as well. Bet the whole board. Nobody. Not a goddamn person. Jeez. Not one. I'm the defending champion.
Starting point is 01:54:44 And until there's another champion, nobody is allowed to say shit. So everybody on that text chain. Shut the fuck up. They're not listening, dude. It's like two hours into this podcast. Oh, they're not listening. Every 9 a.m. on a. Every 9 a.m. on a.
Starting point is 01:55:01 Monday, I get a text message about how I've talked shit about these fucking idiots. God damn. They're stupid, huh? No, they're not. No, I like them. I hope they all had good weekends. I have a lot of respect for everybody in the league. Yeah, because you're going to be in that car.
Starting point is 01:55:17 Like Steve Harvey says, you're going to get a new car. No, I'm not going to lose the league. I'm going to finish like. Right? He's going to get that new car. Steve Carvey. Oh, we should call the car, the beater Steve Carvey. Steve Carvey.
Starting point is 01:55:36 That's perfect. Who's driving Steve Carvey this year? Probably you got 85 points this week. You had 85 points last week. They said race to 100 is what they were saying. I barely got the joke because I don't really know about scores and shit like that. Or math. Yeah, well, no, I just know about how to draft a fucking killer team.
Starting point is 01:55:56 Thursday night time machine one to one big boy I'm not worried about that wafel house you're gonna be in that waffle house oh man am I yeah you gonna be in there just I got bad news for you what kind of news you got for me I got bad news for you I have a bead and it's bead not beat I have a bead on I happen to have a prime time game next I happen to have a bead on why the The Davis Mills, the third led Texans. Right. Thank God for Sam Darnold, because there is no need to tune into that game.
Starting point is 01:56:35 The NFL, who knocked out of the park the first three primetime games, now trots out the wounded Packers and the Detroit Lions covering Campbell. And then on Thursday, we got the... That game is going to be electric Monday night. You think so? I think so. You're calling it? I think Detroit, they came out.
Starting point is 01:56:57 showed a little fire at the end of the last week. Yeah. Fearless prediction. What's the final tomorrow night? It's just like, you know, like trying to feast on a wounded animal. And right now, Green Bay, they're the wounded animal. And they are the lions. So what's the score going to be, night?
Starting point is 01:57:14 Let's take it. Detroit 31, Green Bay. Actually, I'm going to say Green Bay 33. Oh, I like how he's, he's. The Okiemoveting the game here. I just want to say this, facts, the reviews were not
Starting point is 01:57:33 solid on Kanye West being a bigger, better promoter than Muhammad Ali the other day. What do you mean? Just some people online were that thought you were wrong. But that doesn't mean anything.
Starting point is 01:57:45 It doesn't because, you know, I think it's just you're being wrong just is really what does it. You see, they don't have, does Ali have shoes? Does Ali have shoes? Does anyone wear Ali's shoes? Because a lot of people,
Starting point is 01:57:57 people wear yeezies a lot of people that's right sleep out for days to get yeasies to get raffle tickets the resell on them are crazy to get a fucking no one was sleeping for mohaman ali tickets bro melb the show black friday like everybody's out in the parking lot 149 99 mohammed ali's signature boxing shoes and those are and those aren't like those are just regular boxing shoes they're available currently seven and a half Yeah, there's barely any sizes available.

Starting point is 01:58:33 We talked at the top of the show about we went out to dinner Friday night. Went to South and Central in Charlottesville. It's great. A shout out to our server who was playing hurt. She had a muscle spasm in her trap. She looked uncomfortable. She was carrying out like these huge plates of beef, just like powering through it. So shout out to her.
Starting point is 01:58:53 Shout out to South and Central. Did you try the habanero sauce? No, you forgot to. But you are the subject of the story I want to tell. Okay. When you came to South and Central and we were out there with Bad Back Back Backie, thanks for the meal, Bad Back Back Backie. We came, it came to order.

Starting point is 01:59:22 Sorry. No, you're not. But Nate comes to dinner and Nate is like, let me get the 48-ounce steak. Like, you know, every menu has this big steak. And, of course, everybody's like, you're really going to eat the whole steak. Like, you know, that whole song and dance. I'm going to eat the whole steak.
Starting point is 01:59:36 Nate gets the steak. Two minutes later, let me get a box. He takes half the steak home. He probably took 36 ounces of steak. He was eating steak for a week. I literally ate steak for the next two or three, two or three days. Well, that's a good move. You didn't pay for it.
Starting point is 01:59:50 And the good thing is, they make their steaks all, like, medium. So you get that thing. you throw it back on the grill for a little bit to heat it back up. It was really good. Had steak and eggs one of those mornings. Pro tip. Really, really good. Kevin didn't think he was buying you steak and eggs.
