Welcome back, welcome back, welcome back.
Welcome, welcome, welcome.
Is this Kevin?
Welcome back.
That's the voice of Garrett the Rock.
I forgot about that.
Immortalized forever.
That'll never go anywhere.
He was so confused.
I had no idea what show I was on.
I didn't know what time it was.
You didn't know what planet you were on.
You were blacked out drunk.
After I got off the call with you that day,
we went down to, I think it was Game On to get food.
And I was like, dude, I've been waiting for dinner all day.
And they were like, dude, it's 2 o'clock.
Like, what?
Was that before or after you got dropped from the Sports Hub for saying shit?
I'm acting like he knows.
I have no idea.
They called the blacked out man
for the yeah yeah i have no idea that's whenever you said you were getting barbecue but you meant
you were at the baseball yes i said heading to bbq and that was uh it's just a different
experience i got i don't go to baseball tavern enough to know do people call it bbt yeah i mean
like if you're lazy and you just don't want to say we usually just say that's just the rocket
yeah yeah i don't even think that's an abbreviation people use.
No, it's not.
No, it's not.
It's Clancy and the Rockets.
I would have known.
Five years from the Ivy and Buckhead.
Yeah, we got fights on board, too.
So it's me, Jared, Casey, and Fidelberg will be the honorary member for the week here at Buckhead.
It's my least favorite week of the year.
Best week of the year, baby.
I know.
Best week of the year. Only because of the year, baby. I genuinely mean that.
Best week of the year.
Only because of the Patriots.
Oh, there's so many things.
The last three years.
First of all, I've gotten to three Super Bowls.
And it was, we started in Houston and Minnesota.
We didn't start exactly hot.
You're acting like Houston's just a piece of shit.
It was a piece of shit.
Depends on where you are.
It was a piece of trash.
Houston was the right spot, Kevin.
Depends on which ward you're in. Houston was of trash. Houston was in the right spots, Kevin. It depends on which ward you're in.
Houston was just like...
You were in the right spots.
The bar was great.
The bar was great.
Everything was 40 minutes away.
Yeah, it was great.
That's fair.
It's very spread out.
We're upgrading a little bit here in Atlanta.
Could you just be a little bit warmer, please, maybe?
I thought it was going to be nice in the South.
I'm freezing still.
But it's been
the patriots every year yeah it's been either i had just had a newborn or a fucking sex scandal
and now i'm moving out of my fucking house every single year some sort of catastrophe and i get
here and it's dave and feidelberg doing their fucking patriots parade they're celebrating an
inevitable super bowl and it's just always a
catastrophe for me. I mean, I will say, though, I'm always tired when I get off of a flight.
I saw that video of Feidelberg being greeted by the people of Atlanta.
It was like smelling salts. I mean, I know those people are local Atlanta folks,
and I know they're working for free and I know they weren't in Minnesota last year,
but I feel like the same time they recognized me from last year they're like oh he's back it's his
favorite week of the year he's back we roll off the airplane and we've talked about this fight
to get off the airplane try to do your cool thing you get your headphones in you listen to a certain
song yeah you pretend that you're like hollywood yeah you're getting off and and i'm trying and
i'm faking it because i'm just miserable here as the patriots are inevitably going to win and there's these there's these greeters and they're
just like yeah welcome to atlanta yeah and fights just start as high stepping through what's up
ladies oh we back we here again and i was just like we could not be more polar opposite right
did you have your wendy's in your hand at that point? Oh, yeah. I was presenting it
like it was Simba.
Like a bag of fucking
spicy chicken.
Just a high stepping out.
And then when I finally
caught up to him,
he had the Frosty
in his pocket.
Just a hamburger
and then he's smiling.
He looks like a homeless man.
He does look like a homeless man.
He owns that look.
It's not what you look like.
It's the confidence
that you exude
as you're wearing that.
Perception is reality.
It's a shocking development that I exude confidence.
But that's the thing.
You're a Patriots fan.
Yeah, I mean, this is not the Super Bowl.
This is a Patriots game.
The Patriots play in like week, what would it be?
21 or whatever the fuck it is every year.
And it's just, I mean, I don't even know.
They actually played a clip from the rundown the other day on Twitter.
It was three, four years ago whatever and me and dan were desperately trying to proclaim
the churning curse yep it's like you sold out you left your hometown you're doing it for the money
none of your teams are ever gonna win again the patriots are probably never even gonna make the
super bowl again because of this churning deal. And since then, it's been nothing but Patriots Super Bowls.
And I think the Jets have gone like 14 and 48 or something.
Absolutely atrocious.
14 sounds high.
Yeah, right.
That seems a bit much.
It's not even just the Patriots, though.
I mean, the city of Boston has suffered three long months not having a championship.
I can't believe it's McGillicuddy time already.
It is.
Yeah.
I mean, this will be the first time that his age doesn't change. Yeah. Right.
It will be 16 years old, 12 parades.
I mean, he's going to use the release.
Was he even a woman?
I don't think he was.
I don't think there's a poster.
He might not have changed it, but he maybe didn't
go to that parade or whatnot. I don't believe there's
a poster with the same age and a different
number of parades.
I hate that kid so fucking
much. He's, what is he, 16
now? Yeah, 16. Didn't you
say that you don't want to meet him? You can't.
Why would I want, he's
my daddy, he owns me. If you met him
I feel like you'd probably
like him? No. No?
No, but I would have to be reasonable because then, now
I'm like a grown adult talking to a child.
I couldn't be like, Hey, fuck you,
pal.
Like,
you know,
I mean,
when,
when Dan and PFT did their thing with Mason Ramsey the other day,
I mean,
it was unbelievable for Twitter and it's funny and stuff.
But I was like,
Dan,
what was it like?
Like basically,
basically hanging out with a 12 year old to try to make content.
It's a little bit weird.
Yeah.
I asked him,
was he awkward?
He was like,
he's 12.
That happened with McGillicuddy with,
uh, Gaz. I think Gaz had with McGillicuddy with Gaz.
I think Gaz had been DMing him or something like that.
This is a couple years ago.
He was Facebook messaging his dad.
Yeah, yeah.
And Gaz was like, I don't know if he'd be down for content, man.
He's kind of weird.
I'm like, he's a 14-year-old kid.
Of course he's weird getting DMed by Barstool Sports when you're a 14-year-old.
Like, uh, yeah, no, I don't want to.
Thank you for paying for my ticket, sir, but I'm not going to come to New York to meet you.
Yeah, like my parents told me to warn me against strangers like this.
You fucking creeps.
But don't you think that it's weird that he doesn't have Twitter?
I think it is so weird. But that makes it part of the whole mystique.
That's why he was raised by Wolves and Lombardi trophies.
He's like the Undertaker.
He has no social.
He's a social misfit.
All the kid does is watch and win fucking championships.
He is the Undertaker.
He comes back at WrestleMania.
You never see him any other time.
He's not on social.
Well, the Undertaker did sell out.
He has fucking Instagram now, which is bizarre.
But before that, before he sold out, he just said, yeah, no social.
That's all he does.
Yeah.
I mean, what would I even say to him if I ever met him in person?
I don't think you'd have words.
I feel like he would just suck your soul from your body.
What he really should do.
He's a dementor.
What he really should do is make a sign for me this year.
He should have the McGillicuddy sign and then my parade sign.
Like a picture of my face.
33-year-old's one parade.
He would have the original sign, but then he should have the
Kevin head on a stick where it's the Connor Gillespie
face. He should have that.
Well, the Photoshop's usually take care of all
that for me.
So this is the worst for me.
I genuinely loathe this week.
But you put money on it this year, so
it makes it a little bit better.
The reverse mush is hopefully on.
Which is not going to work.
But I have to try. You have to try. I get that. And The reverse mush is hopefully on. Which is not going to work. But I have to try.
You have to try.
I get that.
And honestly, this is the thing.
There's no losing now.
I mean, yes, there's losing.
But the whole point is that either I get the reverse mush in effect or I win money.
Yeah.
Or an act of God.
I went to the FanDuel Sportsbook to place that bet on Saturday before we leave.
Because I realized I was just going to do it through one of the guys in their bookies,
but I was like, I need the ticket.
It needs to all be official, and I got to get it.
So I got to do it now before we go to Atlanta.
So I drive all the way to the fucking Meadowlands, and I didn't have my wallet.
So I was like, off to a rousing start here for my reverse mush.
Had to drive all the way back home, get my wallet, go back.
The Sportsbook on a Saturday afternoon when really nothing is going on is a special place.
The amount of Degens running around that place.
Everybody's in sweatpants.
Oh, some fucking deaf guy tried to
talk to me online to place our bets.
He leans over. He's got
all the lines, all these stats.
And he's like...
And I was like, what?
And he's pointing about how Anthony Davis was sitting
out the game or
something like that he's gonna put money on it and i can see the thing in his ear and he's like
and i was like i don't i don't even bet i just hear because i hate the patriots i don't want
to talk to this deaf degenerate in new jersey please god so i get to the counter and i'm like
all right i need two grand on the pat's money line he's like well you're gonna have to sign
up for like the luxury rewards card i I'm like, god damn it.
So I had to make it just under two grand.
Yeah, what, 1980?
Yeah, 1980.
But apparently, if I win and I have to cash out for $3,500,
then they make it up anyway.
So I'll probably have to be signing up for the degenerate card.
Yeah, which is fine because you'll probably come back.
He's going to get the itch.
Yeah, Super Bowl next year, you've got to place the bet. I was going to say, there's only...
I'll be making one annual bet per
year, and it's against the Patriots. The people
who get it, get it. I mean, I raised...
I think the final count was like $849.
So a couple people here and there
spent like $10, but most people it was $1.
So for the most part, 800 people
were down. 800 Pats
haters get it. The rest of the people just
can't understand it.
You cannot understand Patriots hate
unless you live it.
Imagine trying to buy
a Patriots rule lost, though.
What type of people
are donating?
What type of misery
have the Patriots caused
these people?
That's what I mean.
You can't even understand it.
To me, it makes perfect sense.
It's like, yeah, of course.
I get it.
It's a dollar.
And who knows?
What if there's a 1% chance
that this superstitious shit
is real?
We have to try something.
We're that fucking desperate.
But doesn't that almost
make you think, like,
what the Jets do
in the offseason
is more reasonable
when they sign
some fucking quarterback
like that?
When they sign
Michael Vick,
or Tim Tebow,
like, we gotta try something.
Yeah, well, that's true.
We have to throw a Hail Mary.
We have to try something
to beat these guys.
I think that all the time.
People are like, you know, what do you think about this move or that move?
And I say, it doesn't matter until you have a quarterback and a head coach.
But until you find that guy, you have to try something.
So, yeah, go sign this D-end and go do this in the backfield, whatever.
But it's not going to work.
This is an honest question.
So Casey mentioned before he went on the air that Tom Brady was on the EI
saying he wants to play for another two years.
Does that sort of as a non-Patriots fan be like, all right, there's a light at the end of the tunnel?
No, because that's like at least.
The way he said it was not just like, oh, it's two years.
He was like, I'm not going to get sick of playing football this year, next year or the year after that.
But you know that eventually there's going to be a time post Tom Brady
where you have a chance again.
No.
He said that he's looking for it.
I can't even.
I have been doing the light at the end of the tunnel for like a decade.
Yeah.
I mean, we did like the first year at KFC Radio
when we were laughing in John's face.
Yeah.
And like he just doesn't stop.
But eventually he will get to an age in his late 40s
where he's just like, all right, fine.
I don't know that it will happen.
I don't know.
He said he made a goal for himself today.
All evidence points to the Godfrey.
Right.
All evidence points to the fact that it's never going to happen.
Yeah, but what if he hits his mid-40s,
which is what his goal is,
and then he gets there and he's like,
I'm still fucking balling out.
I don't have to quit.
That's what Poppy told him. Poppy's like, dude, if you're not in pain, don't stop.
I always got to stop him. David Ortiz
was his feet. He had to go six hours
of rehab every day. But it's disgusting that Tom Brady
is healthy.
Don't eat tomatoes. Don't eat strawberries.
Water for sunburns, right?
At what point is my theory
that he's not human the more logical
answer? I think that is a more rational explanation.
Nobody here thinks that Tom Brady's a human.
Yeah, I think he's a demigod, not a robot.
But yeah, it's not human.
I think he was created in a lab.
And I think that's more reasonable than just being like,
he doesn't eat tomatoes.
Why the fuck does that make you be able to win a thousand Super Bowls
at the age of 40?
Night shades are bad for inflammation.
I don't even know what that means.
God damn it.
You just buy into everything that he says.
That's how he's done after games.
His muscles, his joints aren't inflamed because he hasn't been eating tomatoes.
It's very simple.
I can get behind a lot of those things.
The water for sunburns.
Can't get behind that one.
I love sunburns.
I mean, it's more logical than water for concussions.
Both of them are just garbage takes, if we're being honest.
Everything else I'm behind.
But after the AFC Championship video, the locker room video,
is what makes me think that he's not, like, he doesn't get hit.
He doesn't get tackled.
Yeah.
He lives in great...
His workouts are planned three years in advance.
He's such a fucking loser.
That's such a fucking lame thing to do.
Three years in advance.
Everybody hates the gym
like meathead. Well, he doesn't
know what he's doing, but his
workout in 2022
That's the guy. Someone needs to kill that guy.
Alex Guerrero. Kill him. You hate him more
than Tom Brady? Kind of in a
way, because at least Tom Brady
like, despite how much I hate these
guys, I'm always like
I can appreciate the greatness.
I understand how good he is.
Like, Alex Guerrero is a fucking scumbag.
There's no redeeming qualities about him, and he's contributing to my misery.
There are a lot of redeeming qualities about Alex Guerrero.
If he was just wiped off the face of the earth, I wouldn't bat an eyelash.
But every guy is always talking about how they miss hanging out with their friends,
and they want, like, a club to hang out with.
Tom Brady has the best club.
Why would he ever voluntarily leave it?
Right.
He, like, when Edelman was talking, like, I want six. I do it for you. I just want to hang out with. Tom Brady has the best club. Why would he ever voluntarily leave it?
When Edelman was talking,
I want six.
I do it for you.
I just want to make you great.
And Brady's like,
I just love you, man.
Why would he ever stop hanging out with this clubhouse he loves?
What a fraternity to belong to.
Do you understand why I hate this week so much, man?
Yeah, no.
It's just this shit.
And you know what I really can't get behind
is this fucking idiot on the Rams.
This fucking dick.
I just finished the rundown where I was like, Dave, you guys, it's all like the Patriots fans.
It is not.
That's false.
That's absolutely entirely false.
This season it was said very many times.
The amount of people calling the Patriots the underdog.
It was a national media storyline.
Well, they are.
It's like five national media people.
But those guys drive the conversation.
Fine, but we have to acknowledge that it's five people.
The Patriots are the little engine that could, Kevin.
I mean, if you've ever watched sports for five seconds
and you are telling me that the team has been to nine Super Bowls in 18 years
and three straight
is the underdog,
you're a fucking asshole.
I mean, it's season by season, Kevin.
It's not,
you're not looking
at the whole body of work here.
And even it's game by game, Jared.
And so nobody at this point,
even the people
who were saying it in San Diego,
who were proven
very fucking wrong,
and then the people
who were saying it
with the Chiefs
were proven wrong.
Nobody is going into this game saying they're an underdog.
And they're all trying to take it back now, too.
But just because you're right this time doesn't mean what you said for the last 20-odd weeks is wrong.
And the thing is, it was okay to say a lot of the times people said it.
There were a lot of times that the Patriots didn't look right.
There were a lot of times that they were taking, like, nod Belichickian penalties,
getting blown out on the road, looking bad.
They looked bad.
It was OK to say they look bad.
But most rational people were saying what I was saying, like, yeah, Brady, that was weird.
Like those throws that he was not making were very unbreakable.
Like a motherfucker at a MCL for five weeks.
Right.
But I was always a but he's going to be there.
But not everyone had that.
But most people did not.
But I don't think they did. I think that most people are not
Max Kellerman and not fucking Stephen
A. Smith and not all these idiots who are
doing this. Jan Sharp. It's like,
what do you do? I don't talk to random
people on the street. I don't know. I'm talking about
what the people you see when you talk about
that's what the people you see are those people
and all of them said they were done. But we have
to know, like, we all know that Max Kellerman
is a fucking asshole. But he's going to say it every year though.
He's going to say it every year.
You should root for the Patriots to prove he's a fucking asshole.
I will never root for the Patriots.
So you would rather Max Kellerman's right.
I just want to.
You're wrong.
I don't give a fuck about Max Kellerman
and I can't believe anybody else does
and they are concerning themselves
with what is clearly a debate and argument show
where these people have dug their heels in.
They've been wrong for seven straight years
because they're waiting for the light at the end of the tunnel
that's not coming.
And rather than just being like,
the light's not coming, guys.
They want to be right.
They want to be the ones who called it
when it finally comes crashing down.
And it's not.
So why are we fucking...
But Kellerman's called it too many times
to where when he eventually does,
it's not going to be right.
No one's going to care.
He also can't walk it back either, though.
Like, he can't come out in the middle no he can't yes plenty of like the
talking heads have been like you know what i was wrong shannon carp did it after the chief yeah but
he has never shown anything that he would do that like he's gonna say it every year until he's right
yeah but that's it that's why no one takes him seriously anyway i had a great time for a lot of
years arguing and debating when there was points to be made like i was always
ended up like on the short end of the stick but when they went through their drought and you know
brady you know there was always that like manning kind of had better numbers and there was arguments
to make and then it just got to the point where you just can't it's not even you just can't and
if you do it's fine but you have to acknowledge that you're basically just a troll. I don't do that, so I was like,
I'm just going to be reasonable here. You're not going to hear it
out of me anymore. And if I am, it's
always very tongue-in-cheek. And then the one time
I let it rip was 28-3. And I was like,
we're going to do this, and I was dead fucking wrong.
Dead wrong? I was dead
wrong. You just can't
do it anymore. And I don't think
many people are, except for this fucking
asshole on the Rams. What's this guy's name? Nickelbie coleman this dickhead at media day time has caught up with him
his arm's not the same like i mean so not only are you wrong but it's it's just now they have
bulletin board material which they already work i can't keep his mouth shut though you you should
have like i mean i can't imagine for the last week Sean McVay saying anything other than
shut the fuck up.
Do not give them, like, it's clear that the
Patriots are a team that is
entirely consumed by
media hate, by doubt.
The only thing that can continue to fuel
them is outside of the league
and outside of, not out of the league, the guys in the league,
but outside of the play on the field. They've done
everything you can do between the lines. They've broken every
record. They've won every title. The only thing that fuels them is Goodell and Deflategate
and now they're running with this dumbass underdog angle and shit like this.
Even after the AFC championship game, they're yelling the stuff that the media is saying
at each other on the field. So why would you, why?
That's why I do think that the Patriots are... I've always said the worst part about my teams are the PR.
Their PR is a fucking nightmare.
The Mets are...
Jets are always a joke.
They're never on the same page in-house.
It's always a circus.
Whereas I think the Patriots are very united,
very much on the same page.
And I think they find these like...
I think this is like their own...
They create their own...
They run with their own bulletin board.
You're too old.
It's not created, but it's like, we're going to make that a thing.
Even if it is Max Kellerman and some one fucking idiot saying it,
let's make that our rally cry.
And they, they do it.
They get behind it all.
Even if there's only like a shred of truth behind it.
And so the fact that you give that to this like well-oiled machine that
already doesn't need any sort of extra leg up,
and you're just going to fucking give it to them.
And you've heard former Patriots players saying that they 100% believe
this philosophy that it's New England against the world,
even if it's not.
They bought into it.
I just have this image in my head of if you make the Patriots,
they have someone standing in the doorway,
and they give you a pamphlet on how to let hate consume you.
It's just like they use it to their advantage.
Smart, man.
When they're already talented as it is,
and then they just get everyone on the same page, it's bizarre.
What year was it?
Tommy Carden was talking about it.
It might have been 2004, so my dad, I forget exactly.
But as they were coming off the field to win the AFC Championship
against the Steelers, I believe,
Ronnie Harrison was like, none of you believed in us.
No one.
You all doubted us.
And Tommy Carpenter was like, you guys went 15-1.
What are you talking about?
That's bullshit.
Don't say that now.
It's all in print.
That's what I mean.
But that hasn't happened this year.
Even in Boston.
Everyone in Boston has said that
your city is so fucked up you guys do that every team
every year
you always slander your own teams
it's not everybody
it depends on the guy
Mike Felger is going to be doing that
even like the fan base
I feel like you all
fans would never say a fucking bad word about their team
that's not true it's the media more than the fans.
Definitely it's the media.
But the media, yeah.
There's like the annual, I mean, it doesn't matter if it's the first game of the year,
if it's the fourth game, whatever, in Boston.
I assume you guys, obviously, they're a lot longer.
It's like there's going to be the first week of the year that's like the Patriots are done
in the media.
And every single year it's going to happen and it's going to hit.
It's not even just the Patriots.
It's every team.
It's like the Red Sox this year, they couldn't win the World Series because they didn't have a pen.
The end of the World
Series DVD, they have players
reading tweets about firing Alex
Cora after the first game of the season.
That's insane.
You know who's an asshole? Anybody
who went to the fucking send-off rally.
35,000 people.
35,000 assholes.
There's 35,000 assholes. I of Cleveland there's 35,000 assholes
I mean that's such
a weird thing to do
well I thought it was
a crazy turnout
but I don't think
I mean I've been to
shit like that
yeah you're a fucking
loser Jared
but I mean it was
I wouldn't
I wouldn't drive up
to Fox
that's crazy
it was City Hall
it's all closet
yeah
they're in the middle
of the city
like
do you get tickets
to that
how does that work
I would imagine
they just open
and you just roll in and you stand there and tom brady does his little chant and you go home yeah
and you just watch it on i would i would go like they do those in city hall plaza for the red socks
all the time like you go for that you don't go all the way up to fucking fox you go in the parking
lot you gotta spend two hours just to get out of the park i will i will give it to you guys like
the fact that there's still 35 grand turning out
for a rally on your ninth Super Bowl appearance.
Yeah.
Because of this false fucking narrative
of you being underdogs.
New England fans are very good at finding something to fight.
And it's Tom Brady.
As long as you admit that.
It's not so much like, oh, we want the next one.
It's like, we might be seeing the last one.
No, you're not.
I think it is.
It's like, if you're a diehard Patriots fan
and you're looking at this Super Bowl,
it's like, okay.
Maybe it is.
They might be back next year.
They might not be.
Like, this might, like,
this is the greatest quarterback
who's ever stepped foot on planet Earth.
This could be the last time we ever get to see him.
It's like Christmas with Grandma.
It's like, she might not make it up.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Like, she seems healthy.
It's fine.
But she might be dead soon.
Yeah, shit happens.
A year's a long time.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But don't you think to a lot of Patriots fans?
Like, I mean, they assume if he's playing next year, they're probably going to be.
Yeah.
Yeah.
No, I feel like that's the AFC championship game.
But yeah.
And just getting back there isn't enough.
It's like we want to see the last Tom Brady Super Bowl.
Do you think that Scott Zolak will ever forgive himself for dropping them?
I don't think he cares.
I think he's he's he's going with the narrative that the narrative that he's a QB, not a receiver.
I know.
I mean, he's spinning it well.
Yeah, that's fine.
I'm fine with that.
That's got to eat him alive.
Behind closed doors, I'm sure he's very broken about it,
but publicly he's spinning it.
What he should have done was just not even tried to catch it,
just let it be a full mic drop.
You know what I mean?
Yeah.
Like, if you're going to fumble it at all, just fucking drop it.
Just, like, get out of the way?
Yeah.
That's the top.
I mean, yeah, but that's, like, your reaction, right? Like, you're gonna fumble it at all just like get out of the way yeah that's the top i mean yeah but that's like your reaction right like you're immediately you're
just gonna yeah try i know he's doing rough and rowdy is he gonna do any radio i don't know i
would love for him to stop by i haven't gotten a chance to talk to zolak in person quite some time
if there's ever i was saying before uh when i met him for the first time i think it was out of jets
pats tailgate yeah like years ago in new York. And he just said something to me.
I can't remember the exact words, but he was just basically like,
thanks for being a fucking loser.
Like, you're such an entertaining
loser when it comes to your teams.
I was like, oh, thank you.
Who has a better gig than Scott Zolak?
Because he's got like, he can do
he does 98.5 The Sports Hub
four hours a day, and
everyone loves talking football. And it's on TV, too. And it hours a day, and everyone loves talking football.
And it's on TV, too.
Yeah, and it's on TV.
So he's talking football every day,
and then he gets to broadcast the games,
and because he's a former player,
no one gives a fuck if he's just...
We ran one last week or the week before.
I can't remember which one.
One of the Patriots Super Bowl calls,
and he's just going berserk.
He lost his voice.
It was the Seahawks one.
He was like,
that's gotta be the dumbest play ball
in football history.
He gets to scream on a radio broadcast
what everyone else is screaming
on their couch at home.
And everybody loves it.
He's screaming much more nonsense.
That's a quarterback!
That's so funny!
Show dog, was it?
Show ponies.
Show ponies!
Show the cords!
Where's the beef?
The fuck does any of that mean something?
I don't know, but I love it.
I mean, he can say anything.
People are going to get behind it.
Yeah, this one with the Chiefs.
America's worst nightmare is back, baby!
And there's nothing they can do to stop us!
He says awesome!
He's a fatty! because worst nightmare is back, baby. And there's nothing they can do to stop us. He says awesome.
He's a baddie.
As long as you guys admit that you are running with this,
as you said.
Yeah.
That it's not really there. But we're running with it.
We didn't create it.
I mean, people outside of New England fucking hate New England.
So why would people in New England not?
Nobody thinks they're an underdog.
I do.
No, you don't. I do. You think you're an... Nobody thinks they're an underdog. I do. No, you don't.
I do.
You think you're an underdog in this game against the Saints.
I haven't lost sight of the fact of how I felt
at the end of the regular season.
We were talking about it on the podcast,
being like, yeah, they might get there,
but it's not a foregone conclusion
that it's going to be the AFC championship.
You don't see that they've just flipped their switch.
I mean,
Dave,
yeah,
that's what it is.
But like,
you'd never know when the end is actually coming.
So when it came time to,
you know,
so you were doubting Tom Brady.
No,
I wasn't doubting Tom Brady.
I was doubting every,
all the pieces around him.
So you think you legitimately think that there are still the underdogs in the
Superbowl.
You can't.
So fucking ridiculous. I, I, I think, super bowl you can't that's so fucking ridiculous
i i i know you don't i think anybody who says that's a fucking liar or an a on-camera troll
yeah which is all okay and it's even okay to buy into it and to make it your rallying cry as a fan
or in the locker room but let's be fucking real i mean going in a championship weekend like they
would have been the favorites in Vegas
had the Miami Miracle not happened.
That's not underdogs.
You know what I mean?
It's one play change.
No, I disagree with that.
Do you think they would have been favored?
I don't think anything could have happened
aside from going 16-0
that would have made them the favorites
in the game against the Chiefs.
In Vegas?
No.
I think everyone has been captivated
by Patrick Mahomes all year.
So you think that if the game was in Foxborough,
that they would have still been the underdogs?
No way.
No way.
No, but even if they won that Miami game,
they wouldn't have been...
Yeah, they would have had a home win.
Yeah, the Miami miracle is what changed all of it.
That's the point.
That's the point.
That's what you're saying.
One ridiculous lateral touchdown.
Yeah, they were only what, three points?
The Patriots are an underdog?
So it's like one freak play is the reason that they weren't favored.
I think people would have still said the Chiefs were going to win that game.
Maybe Vegas would have been different.
But I think everyone who said the Chiefs would have been different.
But a lot of people are running with this idea of like,
look at this, look at this spread.
This is technically an underdog.
It's like one play.
Give me a goddamn break.
I do think what's, I feel like this is.
But you're doing the same thing right now.
Like when you're saying a lot of people.
You're referring to one single person.
What? You're referring to one single person. What?
You're referring to Dave Portman.
So you're doing what we're doing.
I'm looking at, I mean, Dave pushes a lot of it.
But my, I mean, I guess my entire Twitter world is basically Barstool,
and that's driven by Dave.
It's all just one incestuous little fucking terrible party.
But I'm talking just logically.
They're not underdogs.
I would agree.
This game, yes.
Leading up to all postseason, yes, they have been.
This game, no, they're not.
You thought they were underdogs against the Chargers?
That just doesn't make sense.
I know they were doubted. I know the entire NFL network chose the Chargers? That just doesn't make sense. I know they were doubted.
I know the entire NFL network chose the Chargers to win that game.
Across the board.
All of them.
And anybody who did that is no longer doing that,
except for the main team.
They did it.
No, everyone did it in the Chiefs game, too.
But they're not doing it.
This game, it won't happen.
This game will not happen.
The two games they've played, it happened to both games.
They picked across the board? I don't know if it was across the board, but majority. The Chargers, for sure, it happened to both games. They picked across the board?
I don't know if it was across the board, but majority.
Chargers for sure.
Chargers across the board.
I feel like people are just learning their lesson except for a couple morons.
And you guys want it to be the case.
You want to be the underdog so bad.
You're just fucking insane.
Well, because they thrive in that spot.
It's not even about like from a football standpoint.
Kevin, I haven't been an underdog in 20 years.
I relished the opportunity to be an underdog again.
I missed it.
It was fun back home.
You're not.
The Seattle Super Bowl.
I'm sure that the Patriots were the Vegas favorite, correct?
I don't fucking know.
I'm just talking about logically.
You're talking about the greatest quarterback of all time.
It was the Patriots versus the world.
That's why it was an underdog mentality versus a Vegas underdog.
But isn't there a difference, though, between the underdog mentality versus a Vegas underdog. But isn't there a difference
though between the underdog mentality and just
being hated though? Because I feel like that's
where like it's like the difference in words.
You can be disliked and hated. You're not some scrappy
story of like the little engine that
It's not a Cinderella story.
No, it's definitely not a Cinderella story.
Yeah, in like 2000 though. I hate
this week so much.
I hate all of you. I probably hate most of you. I definitely hate everybody upstairs. I hate that guy. I hate this week so much. I hate all of you. I probably hate
most of you. I definitely hate everybody
upstairs. I hate that Gaz. I hate Gaz.
I really hate Gaz.
I really hate him.
How happy he is.
It's just, I feel like
I'm on the Truman Show and you're all doing this
just to drive me crazy.
That's what I felt like all year when everyone said the Patriots were dead.
Gaz! Gaz! just to drive me crazy. That's what I felt like all year when everyone said the Patriots were dead. There he is, guys.
Guys, tackling.
That was a pure, blissful laugh from guys.
We're going to break.
When we come back,
I don't know if I'll be here or not.
I might just fucking leave.
Fuck you guys.

How are we doing, brother?
I am doing great. How about yourself?
We're doing very well. We appreciate you coming by.
Good to be here.
I mean, I got to be honest, the last thing I saw before i came on stage and i'm sure you hear
it all the time but that pinky is so fucked up man i straightened it out
so it's just always your pinky's not like that i got mine is look at i'm crooked see that
people will see it and say what happened i still gardening, and I got it stuck on some roots on the plant, you know?
I tell people 13 years of sticking it out there
and having those 280-pound defensive ends.
To be honest, it seems like all your fingers should be that way.
I know.
Everybody who ever plays the position should be like that.
Well, I mean, if you were to jam this thing, they wouldn't feel very good.
No.
The hands are very sensitive right now.
Do you ever show somebody that and they don't react the way we just did?
No, they usually react.
And it's fun, too.
That'd be a psychopath if they don't react.
I love golf, so I'll go into a pro shop and I'll be looking at the gloves.
I need a 2X that fits the left, but I need the pinky to go out like this.
They're like...
You get the fuck out of here.
Like when you cut the pinky out of the gloves?
No, it keeps it nice and snug.
I love the routine of like, look, I fixed it.
Nope.
That is, I mean, that's.
A great party trick.
That's a, you know, a battle wound, right?
I mean, that's a reminder of everything that you did.
One of them.
And it doesn't hurt, so I don't get it fixed. fixed you know it's just another rehab and you know maybe some pins
and i don't need all this we had a guy uh big cat he he bet a pinky this nfl season if the texans
ran the table and i believe it was a win the super bowl or make it i think it was make it
oh i thought it was when so if the texans won the super bowl and he bet, you know, like week three or four when things were not looking good for them,
and they go on this nine or ten game win streak, whatever it was, and the rule is going to be if they won the Super Bowl, chop the pinky off.
Well, I could have been tough like Ronnie Lott.
Yeah.
I mean, one of the best safeties to ever play the game during the game.
I mean, he just cut the end off.
Yeah.
See you later.
He said, the heck with surgery, the heck with rehab.
I'll just cut it off.
And so he's got half a pinky now.
You ever think about it?
No, I'm not that tough.
I mean, I think that's a cooler story.
Isn't it better?
Yeah.
The only problem, I was at a live auction.
It was up to 300, and I said, 300?
And they said, it's 300, not 250.
Well, listen, when you got the ring on the other finger,
I mean, that's what matters, right?
Hopefully it keeps the eyes off this.
It doesn't work because that's the first thing you ask them about.
Yeah.
I mean, a pretty illustrious career for you, man.
I mean, like, widely regarded as one of the best offensive linemen ever.
I know this guy here is a big Brady fan,
and he is so well-known for taking care of his linemen.
Did you ever get that type of treatment?
We got a few gifts.
It was like Christmas.
I played with Boomer Esiason.
What did Boomer be getting?
I'll tell you what.
Boomer Esiason took care of us.
And it wasn't just, you know, go out and buy the linemen a gift.
He would do a little.
He knew the linemen.
Like at one year, he had eight linemen.
He knew four of us hunted, and the other four didn't.
So we got the four guys that hunted a top-of-the-line shotgun
and got the other guys cell phones.
So we got some nice ostrich boots with our names and number
and the Bengals helmet.
That's awful.
So it was, but the ultimate, and people think of Boomer,
and they get the wrong impression a lot of times of Boomer,
but the guy's amazing.
Meaning what?
Well, they think he's arrogant and cocky,
but the guy's just confident.
He loves people.
He loves to be a giver.
So my last year playing was his last year before he returned.
And what he did, he usually had the offensive lineman at his house for dinner.
And in that year, you had to be a veteran lineman.
There was three of us that were left my last year.
So the three of us, our wives and Boomer and his wife were at his house.
So after dinner, we go in his family room, and we all sit down on the couches.
And he says, Anthony, I already gave the other two guys their gift, and he has a little
box. He goes, here's yours. I grabbed it, and this was, I said, whoa. So I open it up, and there's a
set of car keys, and I'm like, whoa. He goes, come on, let's go outside. Well, when we got there,
he had his Ford Explorer that had the lift kit, and it was black and tinted windows.
Well, we walked out, and that was gone.
And there was another one sitting out there.
It was a dark green lift kit.
He goes, come on, let's take a spin.
It's yours.
Holy shit.
I'm thinking, what is this, a month lease, maybe two months?
And he goes, no.
Test drive.
So he jumps in, I jump in, we drive around.
He gave me that for my retirement.
That's awesome. Had a plaque on the dash that said, Anthony jump in, we drive around. He gave me that for my retirement. That's awesome.
Had a plaque on the dash that said, Anthony, thanks for nine great years.
I mean, so that was the ultimate gift.
Did he pay the insurance too or did he over you?
Well, no, I mean, I had to pay for gas and insurance.
But heck, I'm not complaining.
I think you're doing all right, Tony.
Do most quarterbacks treat their offensive linemen like that?
I think a lot of the smart quarterbacks, and all of them are smart.
So I think, you know, they, and one of the things, you know,
they know how to connect with their guys.
You know, give them gifts, you know, take them to dinner maybe once a week.
Boomer did that with us.
And from what I hear, they do take care of their offensive linemen.
And, you know, that's not that we expect that, but they just do that.
That's them.
I mean, and they understand the cohesiveness, the teamwork that it takes.
The importance behind it.
Exactly.
When you see, when there's an offensive line problem,
I think it's the most glaring thing on the field.
As a Jets fan, I had it with Wayne Hunter and the dude on the Giants this year.
Eric Flowers, right?
Yeah, Flowers.
There's a weak link, and it's the one thing you can't hide, you can't mask, and you can't even really scheme or help around it, right? Yeah, Flowers. There's a weak link, and it's the one thing you can't hide, you can't mask,
and you can't even really scheme or help around it, right?
So if you're on a line like that and there's a problem, and everyone knows it,
you can't even sugarcoat it.
What do you do?
Well, to use an analogy of that, a former teammate of mine,
I played next to him for my first four years.
He was my left guard, and he says it best.
And you take your fist.
If you're going to punch something and you have four fingers here,
but you don't have that thumb, it's not going to be very solid.
Right.
But if you take those four fingers and you put that thumb, it's like a line.
If you have four guys executing one guy, it's not going to work.
Nah.
You need all five guys, and it's very important.
I mean, it's one of those things.
I had a chance to really gain a lot of accolades, but I know it was because of the guys next to me.
And not only the four other linemen, but your tight end.
I mean, the tight end is very important too.
So it is.
I mean, it's like when things are going well, nobody talks about it,
but you're holding penalty, you jump off sides, you move, it's going to happen.
So you really have to be coordinated, working together.
The communication is amazing.
That was the biggest thing with Luck for three years.
It was like, why isn't Andrew Luck live up to what he was supposed to be?
It was like a terrible line.
He had Brinkson just fucking grab the slack eyes every draft.
What do you do if one of those pieces is slacking?
Because I would imagine that if one of those five pieces is like letting guys through
or the quarterback's not being protected, you get pissed, right?
Like, how do you handle that?
Well, you don't.
I mean, you make adjustments.
And that's where, you know, the line comes into play and then the coaching staff.
I mean, we should be prepared during the week if something does happen.
You have game plan adjustments.
Let's say you have the left tackle that's gotten beat.
And you have a guy that's, you know, kind of having his way.
Then all of a sudden, you have a tight end.
You have a running back that chips him.
Maybe you slide that way with the guards protecting us inside so that comes down to strategy so you you have to be
able that's why you know as old guys we sit there and watch and when a guy continues to get beat
after play after play you're like let's make an adjustment it should be the coaches the line
coach the coordinator and you should be able to make those adjustments throughout the football
game it shouldn't take a quarter or a half before you make them,
especially now with the surfaces and all the technology they have,
the pictures they have.
You should be able to make those adjustments, and that's what you do.
I could never be in that position because I would just want to bitch him out all the time.
You're getting your ass beat. Step it up.
When your quarterback's on his ass every time and it's just, you know,
there's never a moment where you're chewing some guy out or you're like, oh, no, you really don't.
Because you have to have a short memory.
I mean, because if you're chewing this guy out, then it might happen to you.
Right.
What are you going to say then?
But no, it's you really got it.
I mean, it's it's so quick and happens so quickly.
The audibles and the adjustments, you know, a lot of times you can tell the quarterback doesn't have to say anything to you.
You know.
He just looks at you.
He gives you that look.
Yeah.
See, I'd always snap back.
I'd be like, give me the fucking ball back.
Let's go.
Be like Brady.
Give it to me in two seconds.
He's still having fun.
You know, if you're the guard and you're getting beat, I can just look at you.
I don't have to say anything.
Yeah.
And we've been playing together long enough.
You should know that I'm ticked.
Yeah, right?
I mean, you know, the Patriots line is great.
But when Brady's getting the ball out in a second and a half,
it's got to be the easiest job in the world.
The guards on the Patriots line this year gave up one single sack in 2,500 snaps.
And then early last season when he was on his ass all the time,
it was what's the problem with the offensive line.
Yep, yep.
That is unbelievable, man.
And now he's like Instagramming pictures, you know,
with his clean jersey, no grass stains,
shouting out to his offensive line.
Well, they did bring their offensive line coach,
Skarnicki, and they brought him back.
That helps schemes, like I'm talking, schemes, adjustments.
You know, if you have one guy that might not be as good as the next,
you're going to slide that way instead of slide right instead of slide left uh you know so it's
it hasn't I mean really there's a whole team effort and you know quite frankly yeah he does
get the ball out quickly but there's times when he's back there more than just I mean where those
guys are keeping people out I mean it's I think that's been the most impressive thing I mean he's
Brady's always impressive but the most impressive thing for me is to see how think that's been the most impressive thing. I mean, Brady's always impressive,
but the most impressive thing for me is to see
how clean he's been every game with that offensive line.
It was. I think he was knocked down zero times in the AFC Championship
against the Chiefs line, the defensive line,
led the NFL in sacks.
Didn't get knocked down. Zero grass stands.
It's like they're good at football or something.
Yeah, oh my God, the Patriots are good.
One thing that's happened with the Pats a lot,
and it's created quite a divide, especially at Barcelona, I think, oh my God, the Patriots are good. One thing that's happened with the Pats a lot and it's created
quite a divide,
especially at Barcelona,
I think in the world,
is the Pats have embraced
the underdog mentality.
Everyone counted this out
all year.
Is that something
you would work for
in every locker room
to try and get that mentality
like us against the world?
If they were actually
underdogs,
I was going to say,
if you're not the Pats,
then yes.
Thank you.
They were counted out. Come on, the Pats is the 50 Super Bowls. I mean, how is was going to say, if you're not the Pats, then yes. Thank you. But come on.
They were counted out.
Come on.
The Pats is definitive.
50 Super Bowls.
I mean, how is he going to be the underdog?
But this season, we're going on a season-high season basis.
I'm not going to buy that.
Now, when we played in the Super Bowl, I mean, we were, the year before, we were 6-10, one
Super Bowl.
The previous, or the following Super Bowl were 4-11 prior to that.
I can see that.
But Brady and the Pats.
Nine in 18 years.
Everyone has said it.
Everyone said it all goddamn year.
They said Brady's old.
He's got a new alarm.
That doesn't make him an underdog.
These are facts.
They were on national television.
We keep coming back to this.
There's a long line of them.
What type of advice would you give to a player
that's playing in their first ever Super Bowl?
I'd say enjoy it.
Just take it all in. How hard is it to do that, though? Because it's the magnitude of
the moment. How hard is it to actually take it all in? Well, the same way you're disciplined to
get ready for the season and disciplined during the season, you need to not. You realize once you
get in the playoffs, it's a different level. You already experienced that in the divisional
playoff game, in the championship game. So it shouldn't be that difficult. That's your job.
That's how you put bread on the table. That's how you don't want to just play. You know,
I forget the guard's name, but this is his third Super Bowl and it's his third year in the league.
You know, so you want to be able to do it over and over and over. So it's your job. I mean,
you enjoy it, but it's your job so you there's got to be a balance
and then when you have guys like brady and head coach like belichick or you have you know now the
rams don't have that experience that the so i think it might be a little tougher for those young guys
but still those guys are so focused as a professional you should be able to do that
have you made an official prediction yet you know what i'm so bad in predictions
i was in broadcasting for seven years after i retired i don't think i was above 500 Have you made an official prediction yet? You know what? I'm so bad in predictions.
I was in broadcasting for seven years after I retired.
I don't think I was above 500.
But, you know, my mind tells me one thing and my heart tells me another thing.
At my age, which I'm pretty old, I root for guys, coaches, players.
So my heart is with number 77 at left tackle with the Rams.
But my mind is saying the underdog Patriots.
Yes, sir.
Yes, sir. You know, I'm not a betting guy, but if I bet,
I would not bet against the Patriots.
It's just amazing.
But, you know, I'd like to see Andrew Whitworth and the Rams win.
Did you think that?
Oh, go ahead.
Well, not to bring up bad memories,
but Boomer was on his show recently talking about that Super Bowl
and how he said he
was standing with the i'm going to disney world people and like ready to give his interview and
like that it all changes and he said they just like ran across the field like see you fucking
later it's crazy like don't even care i mean what was your your uh experience with that when you
realized it was so back then i had a chance to play my Pro Bowls in Hawaii, which is unbelievable, after the season.
Better than Orlando. So I get to Hawaii.
We're getting ready to practice
and then I forget the guy. The head of security
for the NFL sees me and he comes
over and says, man, it was amazing.
We had to take the Vince Lombardi trophy
out of your locker room and run it to theirs.
So quick. And I'm thinking, thank you.
Yeah.
I'm trying to get over it.
But, yeah, it was crazy.
I mean, because we were there.
You know, sure, they had Joe Montana.
They had to go 92 yards with three minutes.
Not that I know any of the details this long.
Yeah.
You know, but, you know, I'm thinking our defense gave up a lot of yardage.
But somebody's going to make a play.
Yeah.
And we had one, but we didn't take advantage of it.
Then they had a third and forever.
And who did they hit?
Jerry Rice.
He breaks the tackle, gets the first down.
But it was tough, especially knowing that.
I mean, we knew that they had things ready in our locker room,
and then to hear it a week afterwards.
Is there any, be honest, is there any resentment towards the defense?
Like, you know, we did our job.
You've got to do yours.
We didn't do very well offensively.
I mean, well, we kicked three field goals.
I mean, you know.
So it's not like we lit up, you know, Super Bowl Sunday with our offense.
Right.
Which we had been doing all year.
So, no.
Doesn't it ever come down to that with, like, it kind of, you know,
happened with Cody Parkey where it was kind of like,
I think Rex Bryan was talking about it where he said, you know,
after the game, the run is always, look, one play doesn't decide a football game.
But sometimes it does.
Sometimes one play decides a football game.
The Cody Parkey kick decided that football game.
Is there ever a situation like that where, like, you guys, you know, you're saying it didn't happen in that particular game.
But is there ever that kind of thing where you're in the locker room, like, guys, you couldn't hit that kick or you couldn't fucking make one stop on fourth and seventh?
You know, not a whole lot between the players, but I heard it happened in the stands with the wives.
Yeah.
I'm a defensive wife.
You're an offensive wife.
It's like, come on, offensive wife.
Giselle did that.
Giselle did that after the Giants Super Bowl when the ball went through Welker's head.
My husband cannot fucking throw and catch the ball.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But, you know, you don't because you
know that it can be you the next
time. So it's one of those things you learn
as an athlete that you're not going to rip
your teammate and you know they're not going to rip you
because you have to play together
as a team and there's going to be other opportunities.
You know, we lost that game, but then
we had to come back, you know, what, six months
later, go to camp and try and do it again. You're working you were uh i mean you got to be tough mentally
and emotionally right you're here talking about built ford tough uh for for this whole week tell
me about that well the built ford tough offensive line of the week you know it's you get your
individual accolades i mean mvp you know super bowl mvp mvp of the season it's always a quarterback
you know running back back, wide receiver.
And a lot of times you get individual accolades.
But the fact that we can select a whole offensive line is pretty cool.
So I've been doing this for three years where every week we select an offensive line of the week.
Built for tough offensive line of the week.
I get on the air.
I talk about them.
And it's fun for me to follow these.
You know, I'm still kind of, you know, connected with the game, watching it. I try to, you know, really stay on top of who's
playing. And then we'll Saturday, we'll announce the winning line. And of course we have two
offensive lines that are two of the five finalists with the Rams offensive line and then the Pats
offensive line. What are you really looking for when you look at that? I mean, obviously it's if
the quarterback gets hit or is on his ass, but what else goes into that? Well, you know, with,
with all the, the grading, you know, know, organizations we have now, one of the
things that helps me and helps us is our pro football focus. They do a phenomenal job, I mean,
in hours, grading every position. So I get a copy of that. Sean O'Hara with the network,
you know, really is in charge of picking it. We get to look at it. But, you know, you know,
by the end of the season
or week by week what line is doing well. I mean, they have it down to a science. You know,
the running back, how many yards can he gain before he gets hit? You know, how many pressures,
how many sacks? You know, something that we used to do, but it wasn't out there as much as it is
now. We used to walk into our meeting room and we had it covered with charts. We knew how many times
that we could pass the ball before my guy hit the quarterback.
We called it a ratio, pass ratio to hit.
We knew how many sacks.
We had a grade for every run play.
And it wasn't just getting the block done.
It was a technique grade, getting the job done.
So those are the type of things that really help us out.
So, you know, you can say, well, these guys, you know,
the Cowboys Lions, pretty good talent,
but they're not playing that well.
And they weren't early in the season.
They were talented.
I'm from Dallas.
I'm from Dallas.
That's a very sort of project.
Well, they came around.
I mean, they came back around, and they're very talented.
You know, they had Frederick Gunn with the, you know,
but they started out slow, but then they picked up steam.
So there's some pretty good offensive lines out there.
And, again, it's fun for me that Ford has allowed me to be part of the team
to talk about the built
Ford Tough Offensive Line of the Week. We appreciate
you coming through, my man, and
we're going to hit a break now, but have a beer
and enjoy yourself, right? Thank you very much.
We'll be back after the break. Now, now, back to Barstool Radio's coverage of Super Bowl 53
from the Ivy and Buckhead, Atlanta.
All right, we are back.
We're joined now by Melvin Gordon.
My dude, thank you for coming through.
Yeah, yeah, appreciate you having me.
We just ripped this shot that the caller bought for us.
It's delicious.
Which is just a mixed drink that you have to chug.
It was a mixed drink you chug.
It's not a shot.
It was delicious, though.
It's got ice in it. It's got ice in it.
It's got everything in it.
It's a mixed drink that you just had as chugged.
Is that Kill Cliff?
Is that what's in that?
Yeah.
Yeah, all right.
I'm not opposed to it.
That's a post-workout drink.
The funny thing was, when Melvin sat down,
before the shots came or anything like that,
he's like, you got kind of like a college vibe here.
It's like a Blue Mountain State.
So four of us fucking chugged a shot.
So Melvin actually just basically challenged all you guys.
He said none of you are going to make it to 10 or 11 o'clock tonight.
I don't think so.
He said you're all here too early getting faded.
You're not making it through the night.
So step your game up if Melvin's challenging you.
That's the best part of day drinking.
Drink your Bud Lights.
So how's Atlanta?
I mean, what do you got this week, dude?
Man, dude, so many.
I got so many events to go to.
I did a whole bunch of interviews and stuff yesterday.
So it's been crazy, man.
But, you know, I'm going to find some fun with my friends later.
Later.
Later.
Not too much fun, man.
You can get in trouble in this town.
Nah, nah, nah.
Before we got going, you were talking about, like, you Madison Barstool and stuff like that.
Who are you rooting for in Super Bowl?
Because obviously you and James White are boys.
You want the Patriots to lose because of, you know.
The Rams.
You know.
You know all the reasons.
You want the Patriots to lose?
No, I want the Patriots to win.
Oh, okay.
He doesn't want to go back to L.A. and see all the Rams stuff.
And if I could kick that helmet off the table, I would.
I got you, bro.
I got you.
Just in the middle. That's what I could kick that helmet off the table, I would. I got you, bro. I got you. Just in the middle.
That's what I'm with.
There you go.
That's what I'm with this week.
I'm usually against the Patriots, man.
Yeah, you can't root for the Patriots, dude.
No, I think it's more rooting against the Rams
than for the Patriots.
They play in the same city as me.
I'm not rooting for them, guys.
I feel you, but you can't.
That's fine.
You don't have to root for them,
but you can't root for the Patriots.
I can root for them.
No, you can't.
I got a teammate on there that I'm close with.
He doesn't want to see the billboards in L.A.
Yeah.
I got a teammate.
Super Bowl winning Rams.
He roots for the Patriots.
I wish him the worst.
Oh, well, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
He's petty.
He's petty.
When he says he roots against me, it's like a little kid being like,
Daddy, I can beat you up.
It doesn't matter.
It doesn't affect anything.
We are going to win. You
are wrong on everything you say.
So you want the Rams to win? Hell yeah.
He hates the Patriots. My two favorite teams are the Jets
and whoever will play the Patriots.
You should be too.
So you're upset because you're a Jets
fan and you guys can't beat them. Correct.
Okay. I got it now.
I knew it was something.
You always have what? 2010? Yeah. And the I knew it was something. I knew it was something.
You always have what?
2010?
Yeah.
9, 10.
We had a good run.
You always have the butt fumble.
Don't forget that.
So the Chargers, I mean, this whole LA thing is weird, right?
I mean, it's like two new teams and, you know,
LA is kind of a weird sports town in general.
Like, where do you feel like the Chargers-Rams kind of, I guess, rivalry is at right now?
Well, I feel like we, like, second tier, man.
Like, I just feel like we just don't really get that respect.
But then they're in the Super Bowl, so, you know, you kind of understand.
But it was like we were having a great season, and then they were having a great season.
It was just like we have, like, two losses, they'll have one loss.
And then when they lose, then we'll lose again.
So it was like we was always trailing and we just don't get love.
And now they're at the Super Bowl.
So if they win it, we're not going to ever get love.
So you got to understand where I'm coming from.
It's going to be like the Clippers.
Clippers.
That's what I said.
We'll be the Clippers and they'll be the Lakers.
Listen, bro, you don't ever want to be the Clippers.
That's what I'm saying.
That's why he doesn't want the Rams to win the Super Bowl.
I get it.
Is that tough by playing?
I mean, the Twitter jokes and whatnot are that every team has a home game
at the Chargers Stadium.
Is that a tough environment to play in?
Is that legitimately tough?
Is it like going on the road to New England, like playing a home game?
It's not that bad, but it's still like being on the road.
It got better the last game.
The last couple games of the season when we were winning, it got better.
But, you know, it's still like a way game.
If it were up to you, would you go back to San Diego?
You're going to put me on the bus.
Nobody's listening.
It's just us right now.
It's not national radio.
Don't worry about it.
Oh, man.
Gosh, I'm not going to answer that.
I mean, I think you're answering it.
No, I'm not.
No answer.
No answer.
But it's like hard for people in L.A. to get really into football in general, right?
Because there's so much other shit to do.
There's so much going on.
I mean, who really cares about who's on the chargers when you got Kobe Bryant walking around?
Fuck Kobe Bryant.
Fuck the beach, too.
People in L.A. don't feel like that, though.
Everyone's like, oh, L.A. is awesome. Who cares about sports? We got the beach. The beach sucks, too. That's just false. Let the beach, too. People in L.A. don't feel like that, though. Everyone's like, oh, L.A. is awesome.
Who cares about sports?
We got the beach.
The beach sucks, too.
That's just false, John Feidelberg.
Let me tell you what.
Winning Super Bowls is better than any day I ever had at the beach.
He bashed in L.A.
Hey, L.A., I have nothing to do with this guy.
I'm with you.
I love L.A.
Absolutely nothing.
He's going to get me murdered by the fans.
Where are you from originally?
I'm from Wisconsin.
So you're from there.
All right.
I'm from Wisconsin. I mean, from there. I'm from Wisconsin.
I mean, that's a different world.
Completely.
Let's go to L.A.?
Completely different.
Completely different.
You have?
Like, which?
The weather's awesome.
I mean, it's awkward having, being Christmas and having December and lights being up with
no snow.
So weird.
That's terrible.
So weird.
So weird.
It's like the Big Ten is football weather.
Like, you're not getting football weather in California.
No, not ever.
Just a couple of rain showers here and there, but not even really with that.
You ever hear Phillip Rivers swear before?
No.
Come on.
Ever?
Ever.
Not even behind closed doors?
No.
In, like, a motivational speech to the team?
Nothing?
No.
What's the worst word he's ever said?
Frick.
Uh, got dogged.
Dogged?
I don't think I could trust the guy.
Yeah, that's weird.
You have to admit it's weird.
Is it like someone who doesn't swear, like someone who doesn't drink,
or like someone who doesn't eat meat?
I think it's really dope, though.
It's really creative, though.
The way you talk trash, and how could you talk trash without cursing?
Yeah, I know, right?
It's impressive.
Like if someone, like a defender tackles you, right, and he doesn't swear,
like he doesn't swear,
he doesn't get you to get the fuck out of my house or something like that,
you'd be like, shut up.
I'm coming right at you again because clearly.
I usually laugh.
Yeah.
I think it's funny when people talk to me.
Who's the best trash talker? Yeah, what's the best you've ever heard?
Who's the best trash talker?
People really don't say much to me because I don't respond back
or I'll get really pissed and then start snapping.
But let me see.
I think my rookie year, no one really said nothing crazy.
They just kept on going like, Melvin, Melvin, we see you.
I'm like, bro, I just was laughing at it.
I was like, bro, I don't know how to respond to that.
That's something I've learned recently,
that one of the most disrespectful things you can say to a person
is just call them by their name with a little stank on it.
Like, shut the fuck up, Kevin.
I do that every day.
I literally do that every day. I'm like, shut
the fuck up, Kevin.
If you just call someone their name, it's so mean for some
reason. Like, yeah, that's what my mom decided to call me.
I don't know why you're saying it like that,
but it fucking hurts my feelings, man.
You're the type of guy who's fueled by trash talk, though? It depends on why you're saying it like that, but it fucking hurts my feelings. I'm telling you. You're the type of guy who's fueled by trash talk, though?
It depends on what you're saying.
Like, and if you, like, shove me or something like that,
because a dude from Oakland was, like, talking trash,
and then, like, he got under my skin.
But it's Oakland, though.
And then, like, when I got up, he, like, shoved me,
and then I was like, okay, now I'm finna talk some trash.
Yeah.
Because I'm salty now.
Do you got a go-to line, or you just, like, you let it rip on the spot? I just be like, you know, you got me fucked up or talk some trash. Yeah. Because I'm salty now. Do you got a go-to line or you just like, you let it rip on the spot?
I just be like, you know, you got me fucked up or something like that.
Yeah.
I just do that.
You ever get to the point where, because like when football guys get in fights and they're
swinging at each other's helmets, like from our side it looks ridiculous.
Have you ever like snap where you're just like, you don't give a fuck that somebody's
helmet's on?
The only time that I like went, like I like blacked out was in the Minnesota game in college.
Other than that, like, I just, I'll get in somebody's face and, like, headbutt them, but.
But you're not going to punch a helmet?
No, no, I'm not going to punch a helmet.
Because that's, like, because you got to think now.
First off, that punch is going to cost you about $20,000.
Yeah.
I don't think a punch is worth that.
I could just speak to you and get my point across like that.
I'm not going to punch anybody and lose $20,000.
That means I'm out there playing for free, and I don't want that.
Well, speaking of get down to a little bit of business,
you said you were not going to sign until Le'Veon Bell.
Yeah, someone said that.
So that's all cleared up.
Someone said that.
It sounds like you said that.
I probably did say that, but I probably wasn't listening either.
So I'm going to sign when they come to me.
I'm going to sign.
I don't have to wait for Le'Veon Bell.
Let's get that out of the way. But, I mean, I'm just assuming that he's going to sign before they come to me. I'm going to sign. I don't have to wait for Le'Veon Bell. Let's get that out of the way.
But, I mean, I'm just assuming that he's going to sign before.
I don't know.
If they come to me and talk to my agent before, then, you know, man, it is what it is.
But with Le'Veon, like, are you looking to see what the market is going to be able to give him?
Well, I mean, it really don't make a difference to me, really, because, you know,
I feel like Todd and David Johnson kind of set the market.
So, I mean, we know what Bill's going to get,
but it don't make a difference to me because they already said it.
So, you know.
So the news networks just took the headlines and ran with them.
Yeah, they did.
Honestly, like my agent had called me yesterday,
and I was surprised when he said it.
I was like, dang, I said that?
Like, I probably was just agreeing.
You know how it is.
Just Google your name.
That's all you're going to see right now.
Really?
Yeah.
It's crazy. That's literally all you're going to see. That's literally all you're going to see. I just popped just agreeing. You know how it is. Just Google your name. That's all you're going to see right now. Really? Yeah. It's crazy.
That's literally all you're going to do.
I just popped it in.
You got your stats, and it's like, I'm not signing my contract until Le'Veon signs it.
It says, tops the world.
Melvin Gordon waiting on Le'Veon Bell to sign before pursuing his extension.
For real?
Damn.
Damn.
Paul, thank you.
Oh, no.
Thank you.
That's breaking news.
They tell me to come in tomorrow and sign some papers.
I will now.
That's crazy.
Let's let Barstool break that news right now. Yeah, bro. That's breaking news. They tell me to come in tomorrow and sign some papers. I will now. That's crazy. Let's let Barstool break that news right now.
Yeah, bro.
That's crazy.
We were just talking about that with Cordell Stewart because he was up here.
We were talking about how, like, that's happening a lot more,
like the holdouts and shit like that.
Yeah.
Do you think that's, like, that's players getting smarter
and realizing, like, the dangers of the sport and how it's, you know,
it's time to get your money, get a guarantee deal and shit like that?
Yeah, facts, man.
But, shoot, like I said, if they come to the table,
you'd be crazy to pass it up.
I mean, I don't necessarily have to wait for Bell.
I honestly don't even know what I said that on.
I was so confused, though.
I'm going to tell you.
What I said on.
You said, quote, I'm waiting.
I'm still waiting back.
I'm waiting on Le'Veon Bell.
Gordon told NFL's media around the NFL podcast.
You're on a podcast.
Well, someone got the recording.
I probably did say it, but I probably don't remember.
I don't remember saying it, but I said it.
You didn't mean like you just absolutely weren't going to sign.
Yeah.
You just mentioned like, oh, maybe he should sign his first.
This is an official retraction.
Yeah.
Damn.
So like I said, I didn't know.
That podcast was probably stoked to get a big scoop.
I probably said it, but they're probably on cloud nine right now, too.
They got that out.
I don't know.
We're just going to make some shit up, too, now.
Yeah.
Facts.
Just make sure it's good, man.
Yeah.
We got your back.
We got your back.
Let's make some stuff up on the spot.
How many more kids does Phillip Rivers need to have before you become a godfather?
I don't know, man.
God dog.
My guy just feels like he's right, so I'm rolling.
Once he gets to double digits, I mean, you have to be in there somewhere.
Yeah, his on football team.
Yeah.
That's pretty dope.
That is the craziest shit I've ever seen.
I think it's pretty lit.
How do you, like, I mean, you can't be more, like, polar opposite than that dude in a lot of ways, right?
Have you told him about condoms yet?
He's trying to get sex trophies, John.
I'm going to leave that alone, bro.
I mean, how do you – can you relate to a dude like that?
I mean, obviously when you're between the lines, you know what's up.
Like you're both football players.
You're both – you know, you have the same goal, all that shit.
But off the field or, you know, outside the game, are you just like,
hey, Phil, what's up?
And he's like, hey.
No, Phil's cool, man.
You can definitely talk to Phil just outside of the game, man.
He's normal.
He's human now.
He has a dog.
He's human.
I don't know about that.
I don't think so.
The dog is human.
So, I mean, he relates to all of us, which is really dope.
That's why I like him, too.
Because it's not like he's just too old to where you can't relate or can't talk to him.
You know what I'm saying?
We have conversations with him all the time.
Do you think Tom Brady's too old to relate to?
No.
You know, I talked to James White.
He said Tom Brady's
dope too.
He's out here making pump-up videos to many men
and bad boys for life.
Tom is super relatable.
He hates Tom Brady.
Tom Brady is the common man.
He's such a fucking hater.
His brain is clouded by hatred.
I'm seeing clearly it's you guys that are clouded.
I don't know about that.
Kevin.
Kevin.
They'll all be made clear when they win this week.
There you go.
And his teammate is in the locker room with him.
You don't think that's James Cronin?
That's my guy, though.
That's my guy, though.
I don't fucking care about your guy.
That's my guy, though.
That's my guy, though.
Whatever.
I understand.
What are your Super Bowl plans?
Are you going to the game?
No, I'll probably go to Casey.
Casey Hayward lives out here.
Yeah.
So I'll probably go to his crib and watch the game.
Which strip club did you hit this week?
Facts.
All of them.
I figured that out.
Going like a pub crawl?
Magic City?
You going to Magic City?
One of them.
You know the Claremont?
I just got a call about that today.
I bet you did.
Yeah, like right before I got here.
Is that where you're going right after this?
No, no, no.
A little too early?
I got to hit a couple of runs.
Are you a strip club guy?
Not really, bro, because my freshman year, we went to a strip club.
In Madison?
Yeah.
Not in Madison.
No, no, no.
We went to a bowl game out here.
Well, not out here, but in California.
Okay.
We went to the Rose Bowl, and the chick hustled me, bro.
What?
And I woke up the next morning and I was so upset
how'd she hustle?
she was
with the lap dances
and stuff you know what I'm saying
did you fall in love?
I did though
she had me really feeling like she liked me
and I was like
and I lost like $70 but $70 is a lot
to a college kid I woke up I was like, you know, and I lost like $70, but $70 is a lot to college kids. I didn't
have, I'm like, I don't have $70. I woke up. I was so upset. That was like my bowl money I had.
I was so upset. And I was like, she hustled me. So now when I go to strip clubs, the only way a
stripper is going to get something is you got to be like good at what you do. That's the only way.
You only respect how? Respect the game? I need to see your craft. So wait, you want to see like
the acrobatics? Yeah. yeah. He's the same way.
He wants to see.
I'm there to be entertained.
Like I want to see the ping pong shows.
I want to see like all that.
Jesus.
Yeah, bro.
You can't just be up there and like stomp your feet on the ground.
Like I'm not paying you.
Like I've seen a naked woman before.
You slide down a pole, there's nothing for me.
I want to see Cirque du Soleil naked.
That's what I want to see.
I don't care about any of that.
I go there for the massages.
It's like you go there, you get $25 for a massage,
or you go to a massage parlor and pay like $150.
It's like, no, I'll give you $25.
You get a little shoulder rub.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, that.
No, no, no.
I don't want the lap dance.
Do they give massages now?
Oh, yeah.
Where did you go to?
Yeah, well, New York City.
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
I probably got a lot going on out there.
Different game out there.
What was the stripper's name that did that to you?
Do you remember?
I have no idea. Damn, I was hoping you would remember. I can't even fault Melvin, okay. Yeah. I probably got a different game out there. What was the stripper's name that did that to you? You remember? I have no idea.
If I do, I'd tell her.
I can't even fault Melvin, though.
I fall in love with a waitress, let alone a
stripper. I fall in love. If you say hi
to me, I'm like, God damn, I love you.
It was like my first time out of Wisconsin, too.
My first time in Cali, my first time seeing
it. It was just, I was
shocked, man. This girl's mortified, by the way.
This whole story.
It was messed up. It was messed up I was shocked, man. This girl's mortified, by the way, in this whole story. It was messed up.
It was messed up.
It was like jaw to the ground.
I thought you were pointing at Erica.
I was like, our CEO doesn't give a fuck about strippers.
No, no, no, no.
Yeah, I was really about that.
I fell in love with a stripper named Jamaica once.
Aha.
How old were you, though?
He was a special one.
I was probably like 20, early 20s.
Yeah.
20?
Yeah.
It's too old? Too old to fall in love with a stripper? I mean, he was like in his early 20s. Yeah. 20? Yeah. 20? It's too old?
Too old to fall in love with a stripper?
I mean, he's like in his early 20s.
What's wrong?
You said you were in college?
Yeah, I was young.
I was a freshman.
I was like 22, 23.
I wasn't even able to be in there, I don't think.
Like 18.
Well, you also never met Jamaica.
I'm falling in love with Jamaica right fucking now.
That's all that girl can do.
Shout out Jamaica.
Where was Jamaica?
In New York? Yep. Flash dancers. What do you do? A special one. What do you out Jamaica. Where was Jamaica? In New York?
Yep.
Flash dancers.
What do you do?
It's a special one.
What do you think she's doing right now?
I don't know.
I only hope for the best.
She got kicked out.
She got kicked out.
I didn't get kicked out.
She got kicked out.
What did she do?
She was getting, like, so handsy with me.
The guy came over, and he was like, Jamaica, we told you about this.
And he, like, she got, like, pulled off the fucking floor for the night.
I mean, you should have white knighted for her.
Yeah, she was a special one.
We had a thing, Melvin, so don't fucking hate.
No, no, no, man.
Do your thing, bro.
You hear about, what's the,
the Claremont is the one with the old ladies?
Yeah, the Claremont down here.
There's one that has like 65 years old.
Yeah, you gotta be like 65.
They crush like beer cans with their titties
and it's like smash them.
Yeah.
It's a wild thing.
They pick their own music.
Not for real?
No, I swear to God, it's called Claremont. It's called the Claremont Motel. Where is that? No, I don't want to Yeah. It's a wild thing. It's a thing. Not for real? No, I swear to God.
It's called the Claremont.
It's called the Claremont
Motel.
Where is that?
Now I don't want to go.
There's a lady named Blondie
who will actually come over
and put your head
between her tits
and then she'll smash
a beer can with it.
Yeah, she's like a legend.
With her tits, not your head.
She's like an Atlanta legend.
Yeah.
That's pretty impressive.
Yeah.
I don't think I want to see that.
That's what I'm here for.
Try to be up for the beer can.
Yeah, that's pretty gross man
get out of there
yo you seem so like
laid back
oh yeah I'll be chilling bro
when you get on the football field
you get intense
yeah I'll be locked in bro
I gotta go get it
where do you go in your head
when you try to get
to that next level
I don't know
just like a warrior mode
yeah
be like yeah
gotta get there
what movie amps you
if you had like a
300
I was about to 300 that's some
King Leonidas shit
King Leonidas
how early in the day
like game day
like you wake up
and you're like
I'm King Leonidas today
or you gotta get in the
you gotta wake up
and tell yourself
like I'm the best ever
like you gotta wake up
and tell yourself that
oh you're on your
Ricky Bobby shit
yeah you gotta
you gotta tell yourself
you gotta wake up
and like you gotta believe it
and then you go out there
and play like it
not every performance
ain't gonna be like it
but you know you got a little rivalry. And then you go out there and play like it. Now, every performance ain't going to be like it, but, you know.
You got a little rivalry going with Todd Gurley?
Not, I mean, not really.
Me and Todd are actually really cool.
But, you know what I'm saying?
We've been competing since college, which is how it is.
Yeah, but, I mean, right now it's a battleground for, like, L.A. bragging rights.
Yeah.
And within that, there's a battleground for, you know, running back bragging rights.
Yeah, yeah. It's you and him.
He get the love, bro. He get the love.
You know, he had the rookie
of the year. I mean, he came
in splashing, and mine was
just like, he came in here, and I've just
been steadily bubbling up, right?
You're in it for the long haul. Yeah.
You're playing that long game. That's my goal.
Nothing wrong with that. I have
a feeling at some point,
hopefully you'll be
doing this Super Bowl week
on the other side.
Yeah, once Tom Brady retires,
man, you probably got it.
Chill out, chill out, chill out.
I just said I was
a complete Tom Brady fan.
Any other time
I go against Tom Brady,
it's just this year.
Yeah, no, I know.
You go against Tom Brady
every once in a while
and it doesn't turn out
well for you, but...
Smash him.
You can hit it.
You're allowed to hit it.
You're allowed to hit it. You're allowed to hit it.
You're allowed to hit it.
Whack.
That's that cocky New England right there.
That's what that is.
Why would I not be cocky?
What has stopped me from being cocky?
You're on one today.
I really, really, really want to see how you do when he retires.
Thank you.
Oh.
You guys are...
Hey, Kelvin, in like seven or eight years, right?
Because at this fucking age...
First of all, yeah.
He's probably a robot.
Second of all, when he retires, I'll probably retire too.
I'll just be like, I'm done with football.
Me and Tom, I'm done.
Make sure you're still repping, boy.
We're going to talk about you because y'all are probably going to suck.
Y'all lost your security blanket.
Who's that?
Garoppolo.
What do you mean?
We're going to get another one in the draft this year.
How do we have a security blanket
who gets hurt, what, week three? I mean,
that's just football, but he was your security
blanket. Yeah, he got hurt week three with us, too.
I think Bill Belichick was going to let Brady
go and make Garoppolo the guy.
There were rumors of that, fights.
If they let Garoppolo go, they're not here right now.
I mean, if they keep Garoppolo, they're not here right now.
That's not true. That is very true.
You don't know that. Oh, I know it.
You don't know that. Melvin, I know it very well.
He's dropping the name.
This guy's losing his fucking mind.
We would have had to pay Jimmy Garoppolo starter money.
We can't afford most of the guys we have now. You probably have to
get rid of Gilmore. You probably got to see Gronk, see if he'll
take over the last money. They wouldn't have paid him
big starter money. They don't pay anybody.
Jimmy said he'd only stay for starter money,
and even then, he didn't even care for that. Melvin, listen, bro, he's going to do this all night long. You can what he told me. He didn't pay anybody. Jimmy said he'd only stay for starter money and even then he didn't even care for that.
Melvin, listen, bro.
He's going to do this
all night long.
You can't fucking beat him.
They're telling you
you got to roll anyway
so we appreciate you
coming through, man.
Thank you very much.
Oh yeah, man.
Thanks for having me.
Enjoy the strip club.
Say hi to Jamaica.
Thank you, Melvin.
We'll keep it moving here.

Rocket, you can fix your broken dick with that.
You can go there.
Why is my dick broken?
What the fuck?
I don't know.
Just slandering you.
That's breaking news.
Just slandering you.
I've copped to enough physical issues.
I don't need to cop to my dick.
My dick's fine.
Dick's fine?
Yeah.
And drink your Bud Lights, of course.
Yeah.
Your dick's fine? I mean, yeah, fine. I'm not going to say good. It's fine. Dick's fine? Yeah. And drink your Bud Lights, of course. Yeah. Your dick's fine?
I mean, yeah, fine.
I'm not going to say good.
It's fine.
Quite a statement.
It's functional.
Mediocre.
Yeah.
Like everything else, just keep the bar nice and low.
Very average, very mediocre, and functional.
That's really all you're looking for.
What a selling point that is.
I'm not trying to sell.
Just try to not disappoint.
I'm never selling.
I'm hoping if someone falls into it, it doesn't disappoint.
You know what did not disappoint last night?
Pop Punk.
Pop Punk came here last night.
It's crazy to even think that this is the same
place. There were 400 people packed in here.
400 people in here. Do we have on Spotify
yet, do we have
Rones or Pop Punks
Lose Yourself remix?
No, no, no. Love Yourself.
Love Yourself. First of all, I would like to go
I love Justin Bieber. I think most of the girls
that work at Barstool love Justin Bieber. I love Justin Bieber.
I mean, but I think we love him in a different way.
Nardini, you went so
hard during Love Yourself.
You were like, get the fuck out of the way.
She was swim moving.
It was great. Get Nardini and Mike.
That was so unbelievable. We were song, move. It was great. Get Nardini and Mike. That was so unbelievable.
We were all rocking out,
but Bieber hit.
Give me some noise for Nardini.
She makes it all possible.
You know what it reminded me of?
It reminded me when we were at the OAR concert.
Yes, your jam came on.
And I was the only one that liked that song.
Yes, OAR played all their hits.
Nardini liked some one obscure song,
and she was all alone,
just jam band rocking out to it.
She wasn't alone last night with Love Yourself.
I was in the green room
trying to blog our vlog,
and I heard it, and I just dropped my computer and ran in.
I think I ran into Erica.
I said this last night.
That's one of the top five sexiest things
that Barstool's ever done.
Pop Bonker.
The Justin Bieber remix.
Oh, 100%.
Someone hasn't completed
their sexual harassment training.
Neither has Erica.
You haven't done
your sexual harassment...
That was.
I'm not going to do that.
I'm just not going
to do that course.
I'm just telling you now
it'll probably be a problem.
What happens if we don't do it?
Sexual harassment,
February 14th.
What happens if...
What if we don't do it?
That was kind of my calling card
in my previous life.
I just never did those trainings. So I think I'm just going to keep that going. Yeah. Are we don't do it? That was kind of my calling card in my previous life. I just never did those trainings.
So I think I'm just going to keep that going.
Are we going to get fired?
Did you hear about the two-hour version?
Yes.
There's a two-hour version.
Yes.
We don't have to do that, though.
For management.
Yeah, like Keith had to do it.
Oh, so ours is shorter than two hours?
Yeah.
There's a 30-minute version.
Oh, okay.
I'll do the 30 minutes.
30 minutes is like a two-hour version.
We should do it live on the radio.
Well, that's pretty funny, though, that it's like the talent can do a 30-minute fake sexual harassment thing, but you guys got a two-hour.
They're like, don't grab her ass.
Don't grab her ass.
Unless she wants to.
Unless she would like you to grab her ass.
That's okay.
That's what I thought.
That's what I thought.
We need to just do it live on air, Kevin.
That's what we should do is do our sexual harassment training on air.
No way.
Erica liked it.
I think that's a great idea. Yeah, I think it's a air, Kevin. That's what we should do, is do our sexual harassment training on air. No way. Erica liked it. I think that's a great idea.
Yeah, I think it's a fucking great idea.
You guys want to watch me do a sexual harassment course
in 30 minutes? All of us. Let's go get our laptops
right now and just fire up sexual harassment training.
Has anyone completed it? No.
And why? Keith finished it day one.
So did Gaz. Oh, Gaz.
Gaz is going to be the two-hour crew.
That's trying to cleanse a guilty mind. Basically, the whole company
has to do it. Gaz had it done within, like, 15 minutes.
Yeah.
I still haven't done it.
Gaz was like, I got it done.
Right away.
Jesus.
Nardini, what do you think about this week?
Like, we're taking over once again.
I think it's awesome.
Yeah.
We don't even have to try very hard.
What do you think about the odds of the next person to be arrested?
Oh, I love that.
Odds on favorite? 100%.
Why though? Is it because
he's been to jail the most? Because he said he likes
jail. No, because when Feidover
gets all like riled up, he's like a top
and it just starts going and you're like
eh. I like to describe myself as a puppy.
But yeah, a top too. A puppy
top. Once I get riled up, I'm like
Like he'll be talking to himself.
And there's no one to talk him off the ledge.
That's true.
That's true.
Kevin encourages it.
Yeah, both of our guests today have tried to talk you off the ledge and you just weren't having it.
Won't have it.
Won't have it.
Melvin Gordon should have slapped you.
I mean, you're talking about...
Melvin Gordon just broke news on our radio show.
Kind of, yeah.
That's not out on the internet right now.
Our social team should be fired.
What, that is not?
They're taking the sexual harassment track.
No, with him saying that he would sign his contract right now,
he's like, I didn't even know that was a thing.
It's literally the only thing on Google right now.
I'm looking, it's a direct quote.
He's like, I didn't say that.
I'm like, pretty sure you did.
You're definitely a step up.
But I get that, man.
Every time we do a podcast, we go out afterwards and we're like, so what should
the highlights, what should the social highlights of that podcast be?
Never remember.
And you and I are both like, I don't remember what I said in there.
No.
Once you get the headphones on, it's like, you black out.
You kind of become like.
Oh, I definitely black out.
I think that's a little bit different, though.
Podcast recording is like, or any kind of microphone talking, you kind of get in the
moment.
And it's like, you go through the Bermuda Triangle.
Like, shit didn't really happen until the next day when the podcast gets dropped.
You're like, oh.
Oh, yeah, I did say that.
You promised not to commit suicide for a year.
There's a quote today completely out of context, I guess.
I don't even know.
I just said, I promise I will not kill myself this year.
And Feitz was like, I'm going to hold you to that.
I have no idea what the conversation is.
It was on the podcast?
Yes.
I got absolutely no reason. To be fair, anything that any what the conversation was. It was on the podcast? Yes. Yes.
I got absolutely no reason.
I mean, to be fair, anything that any of us say at Barstool, you get held accountable.
I can't even be watching a fucking movie without being ridiculed for things that I say.
I never hold myself accountable for things that I say.
Yes, we know that.
We do know that.
We definitely know that.
That's a thing.
I'm not a man of integrity.
But Pup Punk last night, we've said it a couple times, but it's so true.
It's the only thing that Barstool Sports does where everybody is in agreement and genuine and supportive and happy and having fun.
It's wild.
I don't know why.
I don't know.
It's different from a podcast.
It's different from videos.
I think it's because none of us can do that.
Yeah.
There's no competition. There's no, different from videos. I think it's because none of us can do that. Yeah.
There's no competition.
There's no like, well, I'm a good singer or a fucking bassist or drummer too.
There's layers to it. Only Francis.
A, none of us can do it.
B, it's instant feedback.
There are people there that are going nuts.
So you're excited that they're excited to see this.
And I think the other thing too too, is you can just...
We love all the music, so it's something that we all enjoy.
We don't have to pretend to enjoy it, something like that.
But then you just look at, not to single out Roan,
like all the guys are talented,
but you just look at Roan in his element.
And I said it to Erica, I was like,
it's just so fucking unfair how talented he is at everything.
I know.
Just pick one thing. He's good looking, he is at everything. I know. Like, just pick one thing.
Like, he's good looking.
He can rap.
Like, what he writes is funny.
He's musically talented.
It's insane.
He's nice.
But he's, like, acting.
And that's the thing, too.
He's method acting.
Like, the guys were saying before they went on the stage,
they were like, yeah, like, we can't talk to Roan before the show
because he's already in character.
He's Derek.
Yes.
You know what he threw up last night?
Yes, I did see that.
He went so hard during the encore of Faith that he fucking puked.
And then they had to do another song.
It was before the encore, right?
Or it was the first encore?
They didn't know they were doing an encore.
They went out and they were fucking doing an encore.
Devlin made him do it, which was a great move.
He said he went into blackout mode.
He was like, you have to give the people an encore.
You can't just end.
But he went so hard on Faith.
You gotta have Faith.
Shut the fuck up.
And he puked and then came in and I think he did two Christmases.
Is that why?
No, he puked after two Christmases.
But he puked because he was screaming during Faith.
And then when he did, what is it?
Just One Christmas?
Yeah.
And then when he was singing that one.
If he puked on stage?
Yeah, that's rock and roll.
He tweeted today that the eyeliner was still
burning his eyes. I was like, why was the eyeliner running
in his eyes? I had to put on eyeliner.
You put it on wrong.
That's not what makes it burn. It's he's throwing up
and his eyes were watering. Kevin, you think
just because I was putting on eyeliner?
That just changed a lot of things for me.
Just like how the eyes burn for days after. I didn't know that. Kevin, you think just because I was putting on eyeliner? So that just changed a lot of things for me. What?
Just like how the eyes burn for days after.
I didn't know that.
That's new information.
I don't think that they burn for days.
Well, it's a day later.
Whatever.
I didn't do a good job putting on the eyeliner.
I'll be completely honest.
It was not great.
It looked great.
The whole show was awesome.
Yeah.
And when I grow up, I want to be Rowan.
That's really what it comes down to.
I would just like to trade lives with ron remember how i had that everyone said it was an outrageous take to say that i wouldn't trade lives with justin timberlake it's i'm standing by that but you
trade lives with ron yes okay well that's why what's the justin timberlake thing here i said
i wouldn't trade lives with justin timberlake uh because he has a kid no because he's like
i'm basically like snapping my fingers
and aging like 10 years.
You have so many bad things.
I'm married.
I'm not like a...
Yeah, but you're
snapping your fingers
10 years later
and your career has gone
as well as it possibly
could have.
Sure, but...
Also, 10 years
is not that much, bro.
And I'm also going to be...
And you're rich
and you'll be healthy forever
because you're rich.
30 to 40, I feel like
is going to be enjoyable. 40 is the new 30. Yeah. And if you stood be healthy forever because you're rich. 30 to 40, I feel like, is going to be enjoyable.
40 is the new 30.
Yeah.
And if you stood by the fact that you wouldn't trade lives with anybody.
I didn't say that.
I said I just wouldn't trade with Justin Timberlake.
I thought, no, when you did this whole Justin Timberlake thing,
you said you would not trade lives with anyone.
I just haven't thought of anyone that I would.
I mean, I'm open.
Now Roan.
Yes, Roan.
Yeah.
I don't mind trading lives with Roan, but you also have to include Timberlake.
300%. But I'd be Roan in a heartbeat.
After that...
I'm giving Jared shit,
but I actually do tend to lean towards your...
Yeah, because it's like,
if I trade...
I understand he has a shit ton of money
and he's successful.
Why the fuck do I...
What do I mean Justin Timberlake?
Why do I want to be him?
Yeah.
The copious amounts of money
and like sex icon.
But we just had a conversation
about how Roger Goodell
makes $44 million and he still can't stay. Yeah, but that's why Timberlake's perfect because he's like, nobody hates him, he doesn a conversation about how Roger Goodell makes $44 million.
But that's why Timberlake's perfect because he's like,
nobody hates him. He doesn't have any beef. He doesn't have any problems.
No, I don't think anybody hates him. He just lives a great life.
That's fine. So does the Rocket.
I hate being me.
I thrive on hatred. I also really like being me.
You're the worst. I am the worst. Let's absolutely
go to a break. Let's absolutely
stop this conversation. I fucking hate
Fidelberg today. Hate him. He's on one. You are on one today. We'll be back after the break. Let's absolutely stop this conversation. I fucking hate Fidelberg today. Hate him.
He's on one. You are on one. We'll be back after
the break. I'm already back!
Ah!
Coming to you from the IV in Buckhead, Atlanta.
This is Barstool Radio's
coverage of Super Bowl 53.
Alright, we're back.
Hey, Mama.
Shout out to Ellen.
She's Barstool's number one mom.
I miss Ellen.
Yeah?
Aw.
I haven't been home in a while.
You going to go take her to Kowloon?
Maybe, man.
I don't know.
Ellen likes, she's a big seafood gal.
Oh, yeah?
Oh, yeah.
I'll take her out to a nice seafood dinner.
No.
Why not?
Actually, yeah, sure. Would you let me take your mother out? Yeah, I would. I'll take her out to a nice seafood dinner. No. Why not? Actually, yeah, sure.
Would you let me take your mother out?
Yeah, I would.
I'd be comfortable with that.
You should be.
Well, yeah, you're repulsive enough.
I feel safe.
Can I hang out with your mom?
Ellen wouldn't like me, huh?
Would you let Feidelberg take your mom out?
Yeah.
He's repulsive too?
Well, no, I just think he doesn't have bad intentions like you do.
I don't have bad intentions.
What did I just hear?
I'd let you do dinner with my mom if you wanted to.
Okay.
Yeah.
What did I walk in on?
They were playing Hey Mama to come back from the break.
I said Ellen is like Barstool's number one mom.
Yeah.
She's at the front lines.
What's happening right now?
I'm so bad at this mic.
I don't know why I have fucking zugs.
Come on up for a second, bro.
Give Roan the mic, the stick mic.
Roan!
Yeah.
We were just, uh...
We were basically just sucking your dick for a little bit.
Yo!
It's about time.
The Love Yourself remix.
It went hard.
It goes hard.
That needs to be on, like, Spotify.
That needs to be...
I need a studio version
of that
yeah
I need
we can all retire
off that shit
that was
so fucking fire
it starts soft
but then it turns up
it turns up fast
and the people
responded
yeah they responded
to the turn up
you tickled the balls
with that one
like I knew
like I haven't
I hadn't heard
any secrets about this
but when you started slow I was like this is the tickle in the balls.
I was like, when are you going to start jerking me off real hard?
And, buddy, I went to town on that chat.
I was not gentle with you at all.
It was fun.
It was a wild one for sure.
How about puking during faith?
Dude, I threw up as soon as I got off the stage.
I walked outside and threw up right away.
The only mistake you had all night, you should
have threw up on stage.
It would have been such a rock star moment.
Like on people? Yes.
And that crowd last night would have been like,
it would have loved it.
It would have been like Ozzy Osbourne
biting the head off a bat, Roan just puking
on the front row with the IV.
We've been watching so much wrestling this week
that I was thinking about having a razor
and cutting my forehead and just bleeding all over the place and
just like spitting blood on people i thought they might not like that though especially because the
front row was like us yeah maybe maybe don't spit and the eyeliner made your eyes burn i feel badly
about that it wasn't your fault i think i just am not built for it like i couldn't like look at the
sun this morning like i couldn't go outside. Like, is that normal for
eyeliner? No, but that makes me feel
like maybe my eyeliner is faulty. No, no.
I think it works on you, right? It does, yeah.
I can look happy. I'm fine. I just have a child's body.
Did you notice the
Fordham Pussy Patrol? Bad.
Did you see that video? I didn't notice them at the time.
What did you notice? I watched that video
about 50 times. I couldn't get enough
of it.
The dance move where Spider and Daniela are like touching hands and waving back and forth was one of the most electric dance moves these guys have made.
You know what Frankie said this morning at the house?
He was like, we need to quit as a band.
We can't have people dancing like that at our concerts.
That's the take he had.
He was like, fuck that.
I can't do it.
That's not a reflection of pop punk.
I'm not even going to take that as a reflection of Fordham.
That's just a Spider and Tommy thing.
If you didn't see the video, go follow Riggs on Twitter.
He put the tweet out.
The Fordham Pussy Posse, Pussy Patrol.
It was bad.
Tommy Smokes is doing, he's just doing like the dad dance.
Very dad-ish.
And Spider is doing some sort of fucking, some sort of weird Millie Rock thing.
The whole thing was, it looked like you took a special ed class and like brought him to a to an event it's like a scratch and sniff of
uncomfortability like the shit comes off of the page like you can feel it like in your bones just
visceral for sure i have a question for you ron so we're up on stage where you perform last night
and i noticed like when you look out into the crowd it almost looks like you're looking beyond
everyone do you make eye contact with the crowd when you look out into the crowd, it almost looks like you're looking beyond everyone.
Do you make eye contact with the crowd when you're performing, or is there something,
like, out there that you're just looking at?
Most shows, I do make eye contact.
Last night, there was a spotlight on me, and I couldn't see one face in the crowd.
Okay. Not even, like, right here.
That's better, though.
Yeah.
I couldn't see anybody, so I was just, like, looking off into the distance.
I could see there was, like, two monitors where I could kind of see myself.
I wanted to make sure I was framed up, but other than that... That's why your eyes are burning, not the eyeliner. Let's blame it on that. Yeah, I was just looking at myself the entire time. I was like, monitors where i could kind of see myself i wanted to make sure i was framed up but other than that that's why your eyes are burning not the eyeliner yeah
i was just looking at myself the entire time it's like wow that's tough to look at you're looking
into the sun right yeah that's a problem your eyes burn you're looking into the sun exactly
but you would you be nervous do you get nervous yeah would you be more nervous if you could see
the people no that it's not about that it's just like i want to make sure i remember the fucking
words to these songs.
We all know the songs, but the little, and I messed up a bunch of words,
but for the most part, I got a lot of the stuff I was worried about hitting.
But it's really I just don't want to completely forget
and just be up there holding the fucking bag, just looking real goofy.
Well, that's when you put the mic out to the crowd.
They know the words.
Exactly.
That's a pro move right there.
And whenever notes are too high for me to sing, right out to the crowd. Right out to the crowd. What know the words. That's a pro move right there. And whenever notes are too high for me to sing, that's a crowd.
Right out to the crowd.
What was your highlight last night?
Outkast?
Being done.
Could you imagine now, dude, imagine
if you're on tour and it's like
hundreds of cities across the world.
Like if I had to do it again tonight? Hell no.
Hell no. We need to space these out.
I don't know how you can do it. I sang along with half the words to one song, and I was gassed.
How you did that for like an hour and a half straight was, I mean, beyond me, really.
I was drenched with sweat.
I walked out, threw up last night.
This morning, breaking news, I pooped myself.
Wait, what? It all myself. Wait, what?
It all happened.
Wait, what?
I was in my hotel room still, but I mean, like, I was like on my way out.
You pooped yourself this morning?
This morning.
I didn't know you moved out of the house.
I don't think that has anything to do with Pop-Pop.
No, it was like whatever.
I think it was like an Adderall and then like some kind of heartburn and I didn't,
a heartburn medicine.
Were you just in bed?
And I didn't eat anything.
No, I was like on the way out to do like a radio hit like 20 minutes north.
I was like going out the door.
Thought I was about to fart.
Nope.
Sure wasn't.
Did you go back in and change?
I was still in my room.
I just like kicked open the fucking bathroom door.
Fucking just, sure enough, there was poop in my pants.
Nobody better than you, babe.
Nobody better than you, man.
Jared, you still want
to trade lives with him?
Yeah, no.
You want to trade lives?
Did you hear that?
He would not trade lives
with Justin Timberlake,
but he would trade lives with you.
It's not worth it, bro.
Yeah, it is.
I'm telling you right now, bro.
It's not worth it.
I was thinking about it,
and I mean, like,
even with the poop in the pants,
I would still... like, if that
was the entry point where it was like, alright,
you can become Rowan, but you have
to become him in this situation,
like, that's, like, where you start, I'd still take it.
I'm saying, is it worth, like, having
an awesome show and people are happy
and you had a fun time afterwards? And then you puke yourself.
And then you have to puke and poop yourself? Yeah.
That's almost like a hypothetical you guys would ask.
Like, you can have the best show of your life in front of everyone, but you have to puke and poop yourself. Yeah. That's almost like a hypothetical you guys would ask. You can have the best show of your life in front of everyone,
but you have to puke and poop yourself.
That actually kind of reminds me of one that we've been asking recently.
We'll ask Rowan.
You can have sex with the girl of your dreams,
but she gives a national press conference at CNN, Fox News.
They're all there.
She gives a national press conference on your performance right afterwards.
I don't care at all.
Yeah, I think I'm with Jared.
Flag fly forever. I mean, it still counts.
I'm talking about pooping myself on the radio.
It's not my show. It's out of market
a little bit, but fuck it.
So you're alright with the potential
like, just evisceration?
Just perform better.
What the fuck?
Yeah.
I want to dunk a basketball. Just jump better. What the fuck? Yeah. Who can't? According to you. Does she have to be honest?
I want to dunk a basketball.
Just jump higher.
No, just pause your A game.
Time out.
Can she lie?
No, no, no.
She gives an honest.
Oh, yeah.
I mean, she's just going to be like, well, you know, obviously I've had better.
I wish it lasted longer, but it wasn't terrible.
Listen, she's not Bill Belichick.
She's not giving the one word answer.
She's out here giving full detailed descriptions.
Yeah, I don't care. Like, she's
not going to say it was terrible. She's just not going to give a
rave review. No, if it was terrible, she's going to say
it was terrible. Yeah, she's going to give me like
2.9 stars and like, that's fine.
But if you know this press conference is coming,
then can't you kind of prepare
your performance? No, I think it's
a lot of more time on the front end.
But look, there have been times I knew it was coming
and I still, I didn't make the game.
Bro, you can try.
The more mental preparation, the worse it's going to be.
What's the Thanos quote?
Oh, run from it.
Destiny still arrives.
Destiny still arrives, man.
I can know the stakes, and you're still going to get that same performance.
Yeah.
I've actually, I've puked.
No.
If there's like a.
You don't know what you're talking about.
It doesn't work that way.
I know.
I'm listening to Ron.
What he just said is if you know that the girl is going to give a press conference,
I'm not saying you have to be able to dunk a basketball, but you can at least give your
own version of an A game.
I'm going to try.
Yes.
There you go.
I mean, I always try to give the A game.
I try every day.
Press conference or not.
Yeah.
I fail every day.
At everything.
Every podcast I go into, we're going to crush this one.
Walk out.
Fail. Every day. It was all right. I'm going, we're going to crush this one. Walk out.
Every day. It was all right.
I'm going to write my funniest blog ever.
It was okay.
I'm going to fuck the hottest girl ever.
I mean, she was hot.
Is it the hottest girl ever or just like your dream girl?
You know, whichever.
That was underrated.
Your dream girl is not the hottest girl ever?
That was underrated.
I don't think so.
Who's your dream girl?
Andrea Russett, YouTuber.
She's my dream girl.
What?
A YouTuber?
Yeah.
Good for you.
Are you planting seeds right now?
Is she listening?
Yeah, so keep that bar low.
She's got like millions of followers.
That sounds attainable though.
Maybe.
If you're a YouTuber, you're attainable.
That's just a fact.
You're online.
Maybe, yeah.
If you're online, you're attainable.
Yeah, Barstool is attainable.
All right, guys. Appreciate you. Thank you, Rone.'s like Barstool is attainable. You're attainable. Yeah, Barstool is attainable. All right, guys.
Appreciate you.
My man, thank you, Rone.
Sorry for your bad morning, Rone.
Most talented guy in the world right there.
He just walked into a speaker.
He just ran into the speaker.
There goes my hero.
Watch him as he goes.
What a fucking day.
I'm looking at this Andrea Russell girl.
Yeah, what about it?
23.
Yep.
YouTuber.
Yep.
She's only 23? She's from Fort Wayne, Indiana. She is. Yep. YouTuber. Yep. She's only 23?
She's from Fort Wayne, Indiana.
She is.
This guy's a creep.
Indiana.
Yeah.
Lives in L.A. now.
Indiana produces at just a great rate.
Porn stars.
Really?
Yeah.
Tell us more, Fred.
I think I know of like two.
I just know I think Christy Mack and Tiana Trump are from there.
Two's enough.
Two of the top dogs.
Two legends of the game.
All it takes. Absolute legends of the game. All it takes.
Absolute legends of the game.
I love that you know their hometowns, man.
You really do take it to another level.
You take it to a special place with the poor people.
I might be wrong.
The Tiana Trump I just learned in her most recent interview
that was really over the top,
when she was talking about body count.
That was too much.
She said, I grew up in Indiana,
so she meant that she used to drive to Notre Dame and IU
to fuck people.
Jared, you know Tiana Trump, right?
Recently, yes.
I became familiar with her work.
So she did this interview where she was talking about, was it high school or college fights?
High school.
She was just like, in high school, I would go to parties, and I would just fuck everybody.
She said she would drive to Notre Dame and drive to IU.
She said her senior year of high school, her body count was 86.
Jesus.
In high school?
Yeah.
Jesus.
Yeah, I think Hubs blogged that.
I was like, you had to have gotten that number wrong.
He was like, no, I didn't.
I mean, there were even 86, like, people.
She was driving to colleges.
There literally were not 86 people in my graduating class.
There were 82.
I mean, she probably just took it like 10 at a time, too, though.
But she was driving to colleges.
Yeah, she said she kept a burn
book of it. Just be like,
wasn't worth it, was worth it.
If that's the bar,
goddammit, I hope I clear it.
If the bar
is like Harvard pass
fail shit, like, I gotta
pass, please. If you I got to pass. Please.
If you were in that region during Tiana Trump's reign and you did not fuck her, you are a loser. Fucking kill yourself.
How old is she?
Fuck if I know.
I have no idea.
I'm good at gauging ages, bad at gauging porn star ages.
Like, Bonnie Rotten was 18.
I thought she would have been 36 at least.
Oh, my God.
That was a rough 18, man.
Tiana Trump is?
She was born in 95.
Okay.
24?
Jesus Christ.
Is that right?
I mean, that's about where I would have said.
That's about right.
We should talk to the crowd again.
Anybody got any more questions?
Get that mic going out there.
If you have any questions, let us know.
You want to join in the program.
My guy Andy will bring out the mic stick there.
I'm still not over the guy that just asked Jared why he was famous.
He was like, I follow Barstool closely.
What the fuck do you do?
That was such a dick.
And you gave such a great answer.
I'm shocked at how good your answer was.
I'm a changed man.
Oh, are you?
I prefaced my response by saying fuck you to him.
That's true.
I said, number one, fuck you.
Number two, here's my well-thought-out response.
What's that?
Waka's coming up?
All right, cool.
Waka Flocka in a minute.
As he's coming up, I mentioned it before, Brody Van Wagenen.
Yeah.
Did you finally watch the video?
I did watch the video.
Challenging.
My GM is now challenging other GMs to a home run derby.
You made it sound more cringy than I felt that it was after I watched it.
I didn't think it was cringy.
I just think it's like, God damn it.
Why do they need to do that when they know that the fan base is like people like me?
But it's like, did they do nothing this offseason?
No.
If they were coming off a stinky ass offseason,
then he's in the cage ripping line drives being like,
hey, GMs, you want to do a fucking home run derby?
It's like, dude, do your job.
But I mean, he's doing his job and he's ripping liners. He's He's like, dude, do your job. But I mean, he's doing his job
and he's ripping liners. He's got a pretty good swing, right?
He does. I mean, it's not great, but he even
he's humble, too. He didn't
put out a video like
Steve, my fucking producer. He put out
a video in the batting cage from Winter Weekend
and he thought that he actually looked good doing it.
He sucks. His swing sucks.
Like, BV Dubs put out a video
taking like actual rips and he was like, I gotta work on my swing. Like, BVDubs put out a video taking, like, actual rips,
and he was like, I got to work on my swing.
Wait, wait, wait. So Steve was, like, what?
He put out a video.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
He put out, like, he was, like, in the batting cage hitting, like,
like, if he's in the batting cage, right,
he's swinging and the balls are, like, line drives,
maybe, like, four feet in front of him.
They were hitting, like, the bottom of the cage.
And then he had one of them, like, it, like, blew up the Death Star. It was like, Steve, like, that the bottom of the cage, and then he had one of them blew up the Death Star.
I was like, Steve,
these are all ground ball outs
to the third baseman.
But he had a better swing,
and he was humble about it. He was like,
yeah, I got to work on my swing, but if any GM
wants to step up and do a home run derby, here I am.
And that's after acquiring
one of the best closers in the game. It's good for him.
Is there any GM, like who would win that?
Probably, I mean, I feel like if,
that would be the most boring home run derby of all time.
You'd have to move it.
It would have to make some softball.
Yeah, it would have to be like the,
what was the jock jam celebrity softball?
Rock and jock.
Yeah.
Rock and jock was not the baseball.
Yeah.
The basketball.
It is up there with the WWF attitude era
is the most entertaining thing of all time. Yeah.
If they did Rock and Jock now, it
would be...
That's the one thing we need to do as Barstool, is bring back
Rock and Jock. I think by now we've
acquired enough celebrities and enough
characters. If we could be like, you're playing pick-up basketball
today, it would be the best.
It'd be fun. Would basketball be the best sport
to do it with? Yes. Yeah, because...
I feel like black football would be pretty dope.
You have to have so many people for that.
Like the ten point shots and the peach basket
and shit like that. Yeah. Football's just
football, man. Yeah, I guess.
You can do more trick stuff. But you'd actually get like
legit NFL quarterbacks to be the
quarterback. Yeah, that is true. We got enough connections.
Like Jared Goff could
in theory win the Super Bowl
and then just come play in this.
And be on Team Portnoy.
Yes.
We got a question in the crowd.
What's up, man?
Hey, Jared.
Hey.
This might be a Section 10 question, but I'd love to hear the strip club story.
So, hold on.
What time is it?
That's it?
It's just the strip club story?
It's like the infamous strip club story?
Yeah.
There's only 15 minutes left in the show, so unfortunately, yeah, we can't tell it. What is the strip club story? It's like the infamous strip club story? Yeah. There's only 15 minutes left in the show
so unfortunately
we can't tell it.
What is the strip club story?
It's like a running gag on it.
Well, there actually
is a strip club story.
We're just never telling it.
And we always get
a down in the DM segment
and it's one of our
last questions that we answer
and it's like we're
usually out of time.
But we really,
in order for me to tell it
with the full effect
I would need more than 15 minutes
so we really do not have
enough time to tell the strip club story.
I just broke news to Kevin anyway.
I mean, Hub...
What?
The Knicks traded Porzingis?
Hub just texted me and goes,
Does Kevin know that Porzingis got traded?
And I was like, Well, he does now.
Who?
I got a text from him earlier saying that Porzingis...
What the fuck?
He was saying like Porzingis might get traded.
He feels he's going to get traded.
They're going to talk about it next week. And now he's
on the Mavericks. It's him and fucking Luka together.
What a fucking bomb squad
of fucking and now Waka.
Damn, Kevin.
I'm sorry. I should have waited
until after the fucking show for that. Damn, that's
tough, Kevin. That's tough. That's real tough. It's okay
though. You got Waka coming up. This is probably, I mean, they just have to win the fucking show for that. Damn, that's tough, Kevin. That's tough. That's real tough. It's okay, though. You got Waka coming up.
Yeah.
This is probably, I mean,
they just have to win the fucking draft.
They just have to win the lottery here.
They have to.
What's up, man?
How we doing, bro?
Oh, shit.
I got a whirlwind of emotions going right now.
I have to talk to Waka Flocka
while processing that Christoph Porzingis
just got traded.
The great white hope.
The guy who was supposed to be the one. The great white hope has got... Damn. Christoph Porzingis just got traded. The great white hope. The guy who was supposed to be the one.
The great white hope has got...
Christoph Porzingis just got traded, Waka.
To the Mavericks.
He's devastated.
He doesn't give a fuck.
Most people don't. You don't think that's a big deal?
It's a big deal.
I'm not a fan of the Mavericks.
That was funny.
He's a miserable sports fan, so anything that happens, he's just miserable.
I think I like it, though.
We got a fucking bottom out.
We got a tank, and we got to get Zion.
So I think I'm all right with it.
Anyway, what's up, Waka?
Life.
Life.
Yo, you're a big dude.
Unfortunately, you know, the Georgia.
Why is that unfortunate?
Yeah, I think that's a good thing.
It is.
That's why I say unfortunately.
So you can key in on the important part.
Okay.
All right.
What's going on, man?
How's this week treating you?
Greg just left Xbox, playing Xbox.
Yeah.
Got me a customized Xbox.
What are you playing on Xbox?
Everything.
A Great Day of Redemption.
Yeah?
Yo, fuck that game.
That game sucks.
That game.
You've been offending
every single one of my guests.
He sounds like,
excuse me,
he sounds like a guy
that just skips the areola.
Oh, damn.
I like that.
I'm going to use that
from now on.
You're right.
I mean,
you're 100% right.
Three foot of dust, though.
Dude, no,
I haven't played video games
in forever,
and then I saw,
I don't know,
I just kind of fell off them,
and I saw all of the attention
that Red Dead Redemption
was getting.
Oh, shit.
Want to redeem yourself?
But it's just hard as fuck.
It's like,
it's really hard to play
Red Dead Redemption.
Not really.
If you like Grand Theft Auto,
Fortnite, PUBG,
I don't know any of those games.
I'm not good at games.
You know Grand Theft Auto. I know, I mean, I know them, I don't play them. Of course I know them, I've heard all of them. You've't know any of those games. I'm not good at games. You know Grand Theft Auto.
I know.
I mean, I know them.
I don't play them.
Of course, I know them.
I've heard all of them.
You've got to know what Fortnite is.
Yeah, no, no.
I know what it is.
That's Red Dead Redemption, the adult version.
He's just roasting you right now.
That's, yeah.
He's embodying you.
It's a hard game to play.
This is my point.
Video games have passed me by.
I'm just not good at them anymore.
Yo, that's true.
If you don't play video games, you kind of give up on video games.
You try to get back in.
It's like playing sports. It's not like riding a bike. I don you don't play video games, you kind of give up on video games. You try to get back in. It's like playing sports.
It's not like riding a bike.
I don't know, man.
I never in my life gave up on video games.
I know.
If you do, though, you lose it.
If you don't use it, you lose it.
What's your power rankings of the top three N64 games?
There's a correct answer.
Goldeneye.
Yep.
Goldeneye's so good.
WCW Revenge.
Great answer.
And...
Gotta have Mario Kart, no?
Mario Party.
Mario Party.
Mario Party, bro.
I grew up playing Mario Party every day.
What about Smash Brothers?
You like Super Smash Brothers?
It's a given.
Yeah.
Don't ask stupid questions.
I'm just saying.
I was saying, you like Mortal Kombat?
Do you think...
Mortal Kombat has come out with the most violent games I've ever seen.
Like the trailers.
Yeah, right?
This is crazy.
But you and I do none of the moves when you get the game.
You can't do any of them?
Nah, you got this hell of combo buttons.
It's too complex.
See? Games are hard, man.
Games are difficult. Very hard things to play.
Game chain.
When Fight said that like video games had passed them by, like I felt that.
Because I was a video game guy. I played up until PS3.
Then once PS4...
My most recent
video games were PS3
and Xbox 360.
I do not have the most updated.
Not Dreamcast?
Dreamcast!
I love the way that...
Dreamcast?
It would be no 2K without Dreamcast.
Dreamcast.
I couldn't name one game that came out for Dreamcast? It would be no 2K without Dreamcast. Dreamcast was like... Where's 2K without Dreamcast?
I couldn't name one game that came out for Dreamcast.
Soul Calibur?
No.
Dreamcast stinks, bro.
Yeah, Dreamcast...
In the grand scheme of things,
no one's going to remember Dreamcast.
Yeah.
Twisted Metal?
No, Twisted Metal was the PlayStation 1 game.
It was fire on...
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah. So you got everybody in your Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
So you got everybody in your hometown this week, right?
Yeah.
There's no traffic.
That's weird.
Why is that?
Like, Atlanta's traffic sucks most of the time.
Something, something, no.
I mean, we were bracing for, like, takes hours to get everywhere you want to go.
It's fine.
Me too, exactly.
You like it?
You like everyone coming down here?
Or is it like all the, you know, it's like bandwagon shit now?
No, I love it.
We were just with Lil Jon.
He was rocking the sweatshirt that says Atlanta influences everything.
It does.
You think so?
You know what I love about Atlanta?
This is the best part.
You don't have to come fresh as hell.
Like if this was in L.A., you got to dress right.
Atlanta, you can wear like flip flops.
My kind of city.
Yeah, like that.
Get the socks and slides on right there.
Yeah, socks and sandals guy all day long.
You a football guy?
I mean, who you got in this game?
No, so, like, Todd Gurley is like my little brother in real life.
So it's like, of course, I want my brother to win.
But Tom Brady is my favorite quarterback in the world.
I mean, you and Gronk are tight, too, though.
And Gronk, that's like a dude, bro.
That's a perfect description.
Yeah, dude, bro.
I don't know, bro.
The whole family.
I'm in the middle.
The entire Gronkowski clan, man.
They're something special.
I learned one most legendary thing from Gronk.
What's that?
The poop dollar.
The poop dollar?
The what? Have you ever done the poop dollar? You don't know the poop dollar? What? The poop dollar. The poop dollar? The what?
Have you ever done the poop dollar?
You don't know the poop dollar?
What?
You don't know the poop dollar?
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Poop dollar is...
Explain the poop dollar for those who don't know, Waka.
Oh.
The poop dollar basically is like you not on a normal night.
Take a number two.
Yeah. Put some number two. Yeah.
Put some gloves on.
Yeah.
Dig it out.
Sit it on the floor.
Put some money on top of it.
So when someone goes to grab it, it's a poop dollar.
Yeah.
I mean, like, that's the most gronk thing of all time, though.
They probably did it, like, every night.
Every night.
And laughed louder every time.
Oh, yeah?
The captain was like,
you make my staff pick up shit?
Five pounds of shit?
I'm like, they did five poop dollars?
Where was this?
It was the grunt cruise, no?
Yeah, it was the cruise. The cruise.
Back cruise, man.
How wild was that?
Wild.
I tried to say it wasn't me.
He's like, really?
He pulled the camera up.
I was like drunk.
He put the shirt over the camera. I'm like, really? He pulled the camera up. I was like drunk. He put the shirt over the camera.
I'm like, fuck.
I got blamed for everything.
You talked about your rooting interests in the Super Bowl,
but where's your smart money on?
Smart money?
Rams.
Yeah?
Yeah.
Why?
Why?
Because, you know, Brady is trying to beat Michael Jordan in game seven.
But.
But he kind of is, isn't he?
He is.
But it might just be that one time.
Ty Gurley run through the line.
So this is your hopes and wishes.
This has nothing to do with logic.
No, he's saying it's his smart money.
I know, but like, that's his boy.
I believe in the Rams.
I believe in big golf. Okay. I mean, you're
going to end up being wrong. I hope you
are right, man. Look, I like Jared
a lot. I think Phil goes, go take it.
If you put Jared or Tom Brady,
come on. I didn't say that.
You said you believe in golf. He said
that Tom Brady was his favorite quarterback. No, no, no.
I know that. I know that. But you said you believe
in golf. I just believe in the Rams.
I believe in the energy. I believe in the passion.
I believe in the way they play.
You spend a lot more time in LA than we do.
Is there passion out there for them?
I haven't seen a Rams jersey yet.
It's more like prove yourself.
More prove it?
Melvin Gordon was on the set earlier and just kicked
the Rams helmet off because he feels like the
little brothers with the Chargers.
Nobody out there gives a shit about football right now,
unless you're a Rams fan, right?
Nah, I can't say that.
You a Falcons fan?
Yeah.
How'd that go for you a couple years ago with the Pats?
Yikes.
I was rooting for Brady.
Wait, what?
You were rooting for Brady?
Of course.
So then you're not a Falcons fan.
I'm a hometown fan.
Okay.
I mean, if the Falcons were in the Super Bowl and you weren't rooting for them,
you can't be a Falcons fan. Sorry.
I mean, that's...
I just gotta keep it real. I can't be fake.
I love it. I fucking love it.
I just wouldn't say you're a fan then.
This is hometown.
Tyler, our buddy from Atlanta, he says the same shit.
Tyler's like, I like who's good. And that's kind of
like that. I like Tom Brady. Tom of like that. I like Tom Brady.
Tom Brady's good.
I like Tom Brady.
Root for greatness?
I just feel like when it comes to the Falcons,
we always make the poised decisions in the last minute.
Every time.
It pisses me off.
Every single time.
And isn't that crazy that as sports fans we keep rooting for that team?
You've smartened up.
You're like, I'm rooting for Brady now.
With sports fans, we've talked about this before,
we're sports fans, we continuously root about this before, with sports fans,
we continuously root for someone who we know is a failing franchise, but you would
not stay in a relationship that you knew was a
failing relationship. You'd say, fuck weird.
People do that all the fucking time.
That's a valid point. I just sit in an abusive
relationship the whole time. I just can't get
myself out of it. The strongest relationship I have in my
life is with Bud Light. That's their
sponsor and us today. Not's not bad. I mean,
pretty good. With some grenadine and lime?
Whatever you like to dress it up,
bro. Grenadine and beer is the truth.
I've never had that. Because in Canada, I drunk cherry
beer. So I always wanted to mimic
it and grenadine. You do it with a little
Bud Light. That's about to change my life. You're going to be enjoying
that for sure. Bud Light and grenadine is
fire together. I'm definitely going to try that
immediately. We appreciate you coming through, Walker.
Oh, always. We're about to do a little more
Caves Radio with you in a minute, but next up
is Barstool Radio. They're sponsored by
Bud Light as well, so drink your Bud Lights,
listen to Barstool Radio. We'll be back tomorrow
for the finale this week here live
at the Ivy in Buckhead in Atlanta.
So same time, same place tomorrow.
You guys stay hot
