Hey, Barstool listeners, you can find every episode of this show on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or YouTube. Prime members can listen ad-free on Amazon music. A bar stool, Sport. Tiden, Brandon Walker, Mostly Sports. Welcome to Mostly Sports. I am Mark Titus. He is Brandon Walker. Today is Wednesday, September 13th. And what do we want to talk about, Brandon? Yeah, I want to talk about Aaron Rogers some more.

Yeah. This is still one of the biggest stories. in sports, we can still talk about him, right? Well, according to some people. Adam Schaefter's tweet was a little dramatic, wasn't it? I don't know. I'm thinking about it. So Ebo sent it to the chat and was like, do you guys see the Shepter tweet? I'll read the tweet. I'll read the tweet.

I'll read the tweet. Adam Schaefter tweets. Aaron Rogers torn Achilles might be the most devastating injury to a team in fan base in NFL history. There never has been a player who received more offseason hype, who raised another team's expectations more, who had his season in four plays in without ever completing. in a past. Now, when you put it that way. When you put it,

when you add on. He's not wrong. Right. When you put all that on it. No, I mean, when you sent over the, Evo sent over the tweet and he's like,

this feels a little dramatic, right? And I read it and I was like, oh my God. I rolled my eyes too. I was like, let's, let's be more dramatic about this.

And then, never mind all those qualifiers, but what is more dramatic? Like, what's a more dramatic? I'm trying to think. Okay. Obviously,

there's been players that have gotten like paralyzed, right? But they're not four-time MVP's. They're not that good. They also probably didn't play in the New York media market. That's true. Well, Aaron Rogers really hasn't either. Yeah, that's true.

I don't know. I guess my mind goes to Bo Jackson. He had a career-ending injury on the field. Joe Thysman broke his leg exploded on Monday night football. Yeah. But, yeah, I mean, I understand the sentiment, though, is that Rogers was because I'm not even a Jets fan, and I was very excited to pay attention to the Jets one way or another. Right.

Yesterday, I took a little bit of heat from Jets fans for, I did what you did with Colorado, which is like just add a scosh of rationality to the equation. Nobody wants to hear reality right now. Nobody wants reality. Which I was trying to say the Jets won the game, one. So like this idea that the season's over, we're doomed, we're fucked, we're not going to do anything. I was like, well, hang on a second. You won the game, won.

You're going to have one of, I believe, probably the best defense in the NFL this year. Sure. You have a great running game. The Jets won seven games last year, Brandon. Without Aaron Rogers. Without Aaron Rogers, without Dalvin Cook. You add those two guys. Vegas said nine and a half.

That's what I think they're over under for wins was. There's nine and a half. So they're like, Vegas was like, yeah, you might be a little bit better. It wasn't like this team was, this was not Tom Brady tearing his ACL in the first game with the Patriots where it's like,

this is the team that's going to win the Super Bowl. Yeah. But I also understand the, emotional part of it for Jets fans for the first time in a long time. You had hope. You had hope. Right. And it was dashed in four place.

So I understand that. But I was just like, I don't, I don't think like, I don't think it's like if you're a Jets fan, you're going to turn on the TV every Sunday and be like, God damn it, we're going to lose by 40 today. Yesterday was the weakest. This is our guy I've ever seen from a coach. Robert Salah, the coach of the Jets was like, everybody's talking. Should they go out and get Colin Kaepernick?

Should they go out and get Al Bundy? Should they go out and get, you know, whoever, the Bugs Bunny. whoever they can get. Should they go out and get this guy? Or is Zach Wilson the guy? And Robert Sallis, like, this is Zach Wilson's team. And he didn't believe it at all. Yeah, Tom Brady was calling the Jets.

And he was typing the last number. Or he's about to hit call. And then he saw Robert Sala say, this is our guy. And he's like, all right, never mind. And he hung up with phone. I guess I don't want me. Yeah, because I'll go out with Arena, whatever our name is. Yeah, the Sala, the screenshot that we didn't talk about yesterday.

When Rogers goes down, I never know what to me. make of these things because sometimes you can just catch a guy making a face that doesn't mean anything but the shot of Sala on the sideline where he just he just had hello darkness my old friend it's a shame we're not going to get this coach in like big time playoff games or super bowl because his facial expressions and his he's like a primetime guy yeah like you're going to want him on camera as much as you can yeah um do you think do you think that that was just like a coincidence or do you think that man was like actually because because coaches i think he was going through it because i think coaches will tell you that they're just like

No, we're stoic and, you know, we just... Coach knows when he walks into a season with a Super Bowl potential team, right? He knows what he's got. He knows, like, whoever's coaching the Cardinals this year, he knows what he's got. He knows he's not going to do it. Salah believed they went out and got,

he probably said, I can win you a Super Bowl, go get me a quarterback. And they went and got him a quarterback. And he gets there, he loses the quarterback, and he realizes, well, fuck, I'm about to coach 16 games that aren't going to matter. I agree with you, but also I would like to believe that my NFL coaches do have like the next play mentality

and, you know, Rogers goes down and maybe there's like 10 seconds of like, I don't think the next play mentality is real. I think that's fake. I don't, they know. I don't want to believe the NFL coaches are just like, like, Salas just sitting there for the rest of the game just like fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck. Like an NBA coach, like if LeBron James is out there and tears his ACL, the NBA coach is definitely not going, all right, all right, buddy, get off the bench, go get him.

Just needs you to go 38 and eight tonight. It's not, it's not reality. They know. They know. They might do that, but they're not feeling that. They're not feeling it. No, no. This is Zach Wilson's team.

My ass is Zach Wilson's team. So where do the Jets go from here? To the middle? They're not bad and they're not good. They go to the middle. Which is where they've been. Do you think, Zach Wilson, do you think week nine,

Zach Wilson is going to be the starter? No. Well, yeah, because they don't have any other option. I don't think they do. That's what I'm seeing from all the talking heads. What's their option? Carson Wentz? Dude, the Jets,

the Jets quarterback discussion has turned into guys naming dudes. Like every channel I'm watching, it's just like, literally name a quarterback who is not currently a starter in the NFL. Carson Wentz, Mitcherbisky, Mitchell Donnell. Yeah, Damarino, Steve Grogan. Anybody who's ever quarterback in the NFL is eligible right now to be the Jets quarterback. Yeah.

And this Tom Brady thing. Tom Brady's 45 years old. I think he's older than that. I know he just played last year. The man is 45 years old. I think he was 45 last year. Which would make him maybe 46. There's really no way of knowing, sadly.

Why don't, I just, off topic real quick. What? You haven't brought the Beer Stein yet, the Dale Earnhardt Stein. You haven't brought your Mike Tyson Punchout. That's not a Stein. That can't easily go right here. You want me? Well, I'm showing some love to body armor.

It's delicious. But Tom Brady, how old is Tom Brady? I'm going to say 45 or 46. He's 46 years old. He's 46 years old. I think he turned 46 in August. Yeah. Which was last month.

But man, Tom Brady does want to be like 23, you know? Yeah. At what point, at what point is it going to be okay to, like, call out the Tom Brady is going through a midlife crisis pretty obviously. We're very deep into it. His face has declined rapidly. Yeah. And he's a great guy, I'm sure.

He's a wonderful guy. Love him to death. But his face is gone. No, Tom Brady is very likable. And he's everywhere. And he's on commercials and has a fun personality and all that. But like I do feel like at some point, especially in retirement, because it's one thing, if you're an active NFL player, you can like kind of fudge your age a little bit.

We all knew that he was old. But it's like, well, he's out there playing football, you know, whatever. But as Tom Brady continues to. to like have his midlife crisis. And he's also in the public guy. I think at some point the public is going to be like Tom. All right, Tom. Tom.

Come on, Tom. Come on, Tom. Come on, relax Tom. It's okay to be 50. It's okay. It's okay. Speaking of, so the Jets, I think we can cross them off as Super Bowl champion. But my whole point yesterday was I,

they were obviously Super Bowl contenders, but this idea that like it was a surefire Super Bowl season for them. And now it's not. Like I don't Well that's why I think it could be best It's almost like a get out of jail free card For Aaron Rogers right Like with them they were a Super Bowl contender

Now he's not there So he's also 39 Maybe he was going to decline a little bit Maybe they weren't going to make it And that was going to ding his resume But now he doesn't have to do it The what if is the what if guy Is a great

That's a great place to be When you're the what if guy Yeah If we only had Rogers If we only had this Was tearing his Achilles Four plays into his Jets tenure The best best thing?

thing that could have happened to Aaron Rogers' legacy. This is best case scenario. Also, the people that argue like Kobe's legacy improved by dying in a... Well, I think that's an extreme example. In a tragic helicopter accident. But if you really think about it, like his legacy really popped off after that

because, you know, the mural count in Los Angeles went through the... Skyrocketed. Yes, it did. Let's... So we're eliminating Jets as Super Bowl contender. How many Super Bowl contenders do you think they are? Like, actual Super Bowl champion

can win the Super Bowl. I think there's three in the NFC. I think it's the Eagles, the Niners, and the Cowboys. I think those three teams can win the Super Bowl. Yeah. I think you're looking at probably six or seven in the ACC. The AFC. The AFC.

I have a college football topic coming up and I was already trying to do it. In the AFC, I think. Who would win the Super Bowl to the ACC? Florida State. Florida State is the only Super Bowl. How would Florida State fair in the Florida State? Probably poorly. Florida State versus a team.

Although Jordan Travis transferring to the Jets right now would help them a lot. Jordan Travis or Zach Wilson starting week two. If you think about the legality of the transfer portal, there's no, I don't know if there's any overt rules. Could I transfer the NFL? Who knows? Can you stop me? I do think there's going to be a world where the NCAA,

well, the NCAA is not going to exist. Well, they get out of the way fully? Yeah, but like I do think there's a world where like guys who have been in the NFL and in the NBA can go back to play for college teams. I think that's one of them most fascinating wrinkles you could ever have. I don't think that's going to happen in like five years, but I think like... Imagine, imagine LeBron James at 40 years old, going to play for Ohio State.

Yeah. And he'd be also, it'd be incredible. Yeah. It'd be must be... It would enhance NCAA basketball so much. LeBron has a press conference and he says, I'm retiring from the NBA. I'm going back to college.

I'm not from basketball, baby. Yeah. And I'm going back home and then Akron fans lose their mind. Ohio State fans lose their mind. Duke fans are like, fuck yes, we got him. Miami fans are like, oh my God. Dude. The headline LeBron James commits to Duke is just funny.

And he decommets. I mean, think about it that if eligibility is already, doesn't really exist. It's already. Like the eligibility window. COVID and the transfer portal hitting at the same time kind of shot eligibility, the hell. NIL has introduced the idea that these guys are professionals. So, I mean, obviously the dollars and cents are going to get in the way. And it's like, yeah, LeBron James is not going to go back to college because he's making $40 million

dollars playing in the NBA and no college is going to pay him that. But, you know, you get some guy that, like, is the last man on the bench in the NBA. And it's like, why not? Imagine NIL negotiations between LeBron James and a college right now. It's like, what are you going to give me? Oh, what are you worth? Colorado will do it. Colorado will.

Colorado hired Deons. We didn't talk about that when we talked about Deion. The Colorado hired this man. And the AD, like, straight up, straight out, straight up came out and said, we do not have the money. But we will. But we will. He was right. That's pretty optimistic. That's baller, dude.

That's baller. We do not have the money at all, but whatever you need, sir. So, Zach, they're just going to roll with Zach. You believe the Jets when they say, Zach Wilson's our guy and we're not answering phone calls. I think that's their best option. I actually agree with that. I think Zach Wilson is their best option.

He's not a great quarterback. At some point in the process, they saw talent to make him the number two pick. Right. Do whatever you can now to get it because he'll never have a better situation to grow in. I mean, he's got receivers, he's got running backs. He's got the defense. And if you want to talk yourself into the delusion that the Jets could maybe possibly be something,

which they're not going to win the Super Bowl, but they could, you know, compete and make the season fun for Jets fans at least. Maybe Zach Wilson has been humbled, you know? Like maybe this process. Humbolded. What was this thing last year? He was fucking mothers?

And now he's the guy again. How do you go from fucking mothers to being the guy again? That's tough. That's a crazy career trajectory. When they were talking about bringing in Rogers, didn't he have a quote where he was like, I'm going to make life hell for whoever. Oh, that's right.

But he also... Do you think he tore his Achilles? Do you think this was an inside job that Zach Wilson did it? You think Zach Wilson sabotaged? He has the quote. He said, I'm going to make life a living hell for whoever we bring in. But, you know, once he got there, I think didn't he also have a quote saying, you know, after I'm gone, Zach Wilson's going to be the guy here?

The Rogers said. Yeah, I think he said that at some point during training camp. It has Rogers on the jets and hard knocks and how he's handled the Achilles thing. Because I saw a, I saw Garrett Wilson talking about how. like Rogers apologized to him in the locker room. And it was like a real sentimental moment and all this. I think it has actually helped his legacy. I think it like or it's helped it's helped.

It's helped his cue score. Well, his legacy is, has been miles ahead of his accomplishments for a while. It's helped his personality. I'll put it that way. Because like there, he had a rocky,

he had a rocky patch there. Well, yeah, well, I mean, him, him and him and the, the,

the, the libs were going at it. Right. Right. They were going at it. They were going to, war right and now it's made him a sympathetic figure yeah i i think that's interesting what he's what was it he wasn't vaccinated he was immunized i'm immunized i'm gonna say that to anybody i'm immunized

yeah no i can have the extra i can have the extra pizza i'm immunized uh upon further review adam schfter i think is off the hook for for being dramatic i think i think it's fair i think that's a fair tweet ebo i think it's a fair tweet what do you what do you think i mean you send it to us say you're trying to clown him. Well, I don't know if it's the worst Monday night football injury of all time. What would be worse than that? John Lennon died on Monday Night Football. Fair.

That's fair. That is absolutely 100% fair. Although, I don't think Aaron Rogers is the worst Monday Night Football injury of all time because it did not happen on Monday Night Football. It was Sunday night. Aaron Rogers? Yes. What?

Oh, it was Monday night. What? The Cowboys and Giants were on Sunday night. I was trying to. Dude, we're two shows in, Brandon. I'm tired. I'm tired. I'm tired.

I'm tired. Did you do this on purpose? Talk about current employees only, please. Did you do this on purpose? No, but I was really, I was really worried at the end of this. TJ, give me a point. Put a point on my story. Why do you get a point?

Give me a point. Take one away from Brandon. Why do you get a point? What the hell was that? I don't know. What date is today? I don't know. I said it as the top of the show.

Hey, relax. Oh my God. We're two shows in. This is not good. I was so scared. I'm scared yesterday that my mean girl's divorce joke was going to be the end of me. I know. I will point out.

And then they were gone seconds later. Seconds later. But as we sat down to these chairs to do this show right now, one David Portnoy walked into our office and sat down. He's sitting 20 feet away and Brandon just keeps looking over there like. Yeah. Hey boss. What's up, man? How you doing, buddy?

All right. Was John Lin, worse was John Lennon getting shot in the head worse than Aaron Rogers? I think a head. I think a bullet to the head is worse than the... That's more of a New York injury too. It did. It actually happened in New York.

You're right. Rogers didn't. Was DeMire Monday night? That was Monday night. That was Monday night. Yeah. That would be the worst because he died. Now was that Monday night or Sunday night?

Yeah. How did DeMarre Hamlin? How did this become the story that everyone just says it and we're like at one point we were saying it for like effect to, to demonstrate how serious this was. And now people are, like, reporting it as fact that, like, he's dead, but he's not. Like, he's... Oh, well, anytime you go without, like, two weeks without being in the public spotlight,

a fake you is going to emerge. Are people going to believe there was a fake you? But people talk, like... We've all got a little Alex Jones in us. Yeah. When DeMarne, when that happened, we were all like, man, we just watched a guy die on the field. And then we found out he didn't die and were like, ooh. but then like I think that's still become the story is that he died is that he literally

died well yeah that would be the story and then he rose from the dead so uh before but so this man can can rise from the dead but he can't get on the field for the unbelievable where's his priorities would Jesus be third string for the bill Jesus Christ can't even get on the field for the Buffalo bill um so I want to I want to lay something out real quick okay so in about 10 15 minutes So we're going to have segment tryouts, right? Yeah, we're going to do it. So we are, we figure Wednesday and Thursdays are good times to, because.

To stretch our legs a little bit? Stretch the legs a little bit. Because Monday, we got the weekend of football to talk about. Tuesday, obviously, has Monday night football to talk about. Friday has the Thursday game, and you're kind of looking ahead to the weekend. So Wednesday and Thursday is a little more like, let's let our hair down and try out some segments. Silliness? A little silliness.

Do you want the hat? I don't want a hat. I'll take the hat later. I'll take the hat later. We're not in silly hour. We're not ready for silly. Yeah, we'll do some seconds. But at 930, 1030 Eastern, we're going to do two segment tryouts to see if they're going to stick on our show.

And I'm very excited about one. I think it's going to stick. Actually, I think both might stick today. We'll see. And later on this show, maybe whenever we can take calls, we might do a Remember Wednesday segment where you have to call and start every phone conversation with Remember When? Yeah. And then it's, and then, yeah, someone calls in and they're just like, remember Wednesday? when and then they say something and then I go Brandon you go ahead and you go yes I

remember no matter when it is yes yes yeah and then you're like what about you Titus and I'm like remember when Jackie Robinson broke the color barrier Brandon yes I didn't remember that April 1947 it was it was warm last last question I have on Rogers do you think he's done do you think that was the last we've seen I don't think he's coming back Aaron Rogers is the type of guy who can handle going out like that I agree not to say that he's going to be good when he comes back, but I believe he wants to be a guy that ends it the way he wants to end it. I do think it's fair to say that if he does come back,

there's a possibility that he's a shell himself. And he's not as, 39 years old. Achilles is not a small injury. Right, right. But I do think that he will come back and play football again, because I don't think he's going out like that. I think you should, are you all right?

He's looking all over the place. Yeah, you're so rattled. Like, what is going on right now? I was just looking at Rico and I can tell Rico, they've already got RICO in hell right now. You can just tell. We're doing a show live. There's a big glass window here.

Shaq, we're live right now. I don't give a shit. We're entertaining an audience right now, Brad. We're in a glass window, and Rico walked by, and he's obviously sad, and I was just looking at him. Is that okay? Can I not look forward? I don't know if Mark's been in this sort of blender environment, not during football season, certainly, but when you see Rico, Dave. You got to keep your head on a swivel around here.

You can't be professional. It's going to be a high pressure office all day today. All right. What else? You want to do my college football? I want, here's what I want. I want you to go tear your Achilles and then report back. And I think this would be great for the show.

If you tear your Achilles, because I'm not 39, you're older than 39. I'm not 39 either. You tear your Achilles and then you just go through the rehab process and report on the show how it's going. And I think that would be great journalism. I do think that could win us a sports Emmy. I do think that could win us a sports in my Achilles doing the rehab alongside. Yes, alongside Aaron Rogers. And just saying like here are some of the struggles I'm having.

Here's some of the. Like I know you, I know it started as a joke, but I think you've got a solid idea there. Mm-hmm. And I don't think it would take much effort to tear my Achilles. I think I can do that quite either. Just go run to run the 40. Put me on a stairmaster. It's probably done within five minutes.

I think you'd be forcing to retirement from this job. From sitting here? He can't sit anymore because he tore his Achilles. I could do that. That wouldn't win a sports Emmy, though. That would. That would win a sports Emmy, I think it would. The dedication to the craft, especially if you announced, like, I'm purposely doing this to myself.

Day 90. Darren Rogers is on the treadmill. I'm not. Rogers is back, like, taking, he's practicing. He's taking snaps and practice. And I'm laid up. You're still like, lay up in bed. You're still on bed rest.

It's always darkest before. the dung. You're fucking Charlie from the chocolate factory grandpa. It's his grandpa Joe. Yeah, it just won't get out of the bed. Aaron Rogers has played three games. You want to do a little college football talk? Kirby Smart is full of shit. Kirby Smart is full of shit. Kirby Smart's the best coach

in this country, right? Georgia Bulldogs are the best team in this country, best program in this country right now. They've won two straight national title, so you give them the benefit of the doubt. But that's one thing. Nick's A. been on top of the sport 15 years and he's never been this full of shit. Kirby Smart, did you see what he said? I did not actually. So you know last year when they won a national title for the second time, his players were like, everybody said we were going to go seven to five. Nobody in the world said they were going to go seven and five. Stephen Chee might have. They were preseason number

three. He doesn't know the Georgia Bulldogs exist. Stephen Chee doesn't watch college football ball. But nobody thought they were going to be seven to five. But Kirby Smart convinced these guys, these five stars everywhere that they were doubted. Okay, now he's trying to do it again. and he's very, very stupid. TJ, I don't care if we get... Can we play the clip at all? Yeah. All right, let's play that clip.

Watch this. Watch this. Mark, watch this. In your career so far, what is in the most hostile environment you've played in your time with the Gamecox? Hostile. I probably say, like, one of the loudest,

taste ain't a, no. Tays ain't a good one. Tennessee can get pretty loud, too, as well. Between them to... So, you just answer the question. want to question whether our fans are elite, we'll find out Saturday, right? Sounds like Pampa called him out. So let him be the one that spurns our group to come out there at 3.30 and be really loud

and fired up. What a piece of shit. I love it. What a piece of shit. That guy did, first of all, the players at SEC Media Days, and you know how media days, and you know how media days go. They're the dumbest things we do in society. Yeah. And they're answering these stupid-ass questions, and it's stupid-ass reporters asking these dumb questions.

And so he just answered it, like Texas A&M and Tennessee. And Kirby goes out in front of everybody, and now he's put a target on this guy's back, going into fucking Athens. They're 28-point favorites, Mark. They're 28-point favorites. Why do they have to create motivation? Why does he have to motivate his fan base to be loud?

How many death threats is talking about? He won't get some. He won't get some. Like, this is crazy. What did you say, you pussy bitch? This is crazy that Kirby put the target on this guy for nothing. Like Kirby's full of shit. Why do you have to motivate your fans to come out to see a two-time national champion?

Because the fans might be getting bored, Brandon. I don't know. They didn't win for 40 years. Now they won twice, and they're bored? Yeah, that is true. It can happen fast. You get spoiled very fast. I guess, yeah, well, my kids are an example of that.

But if it's working, I guess Devil's Advocate would be, yes, Kirby Smart pulls motivational bullshit out of thin air. But he's also won the last two national titles, and he has the number one team in the country that has a dog shit schedule and will almost certainly be in the playoff this year. So is he going to do this all years? Yeah. I mean, that might just be his thing. Like, if you were Kirby Smart and you had been doing this and you've won two national

titles and had the number one. And someone came up to you and said, Kirby, you should stop doing this. He'd be like, why would I stop doing this? This is who I am. Yeah. This is how else would you motivate this team? You have a, they. There are 28 point favorites, Mark.

You don't have to motivate this team. Just, hey, we're playing football Saturday. Most of you players, I need at least 60. percent of new players to show up and then we're going to win. I think you just, I think this is,

this is part of the job. And the fans, I think you just have to pull shit out of dinner. Now it's, it's unfortunate the collateral damage that Tonka has to take for this. But great name, by the way.

Tonka Hemingway, fantastic name. Georgia fans are bizarre and they're obsessed with, with everybody saying how loud they are. They're obsessed with everybody saying we have a great stadium.

And when they don't, they get all, they get all frothy at the mouth and stuff. I'll be completely honest. You don't care at all, do you? No, before like five years ago,

the idea of Georgia having a great college football atmosphere would have never crossed my mind. It never would have. In big games, it gets pretty good, but it's nowhere near like LSU or something like that. I don't feel like that's particularly egregious to leave George. Because I,

as a guy who is not live in the South and live in the SEC world, I would never have thought of Georgia's. I mean, if you play in the stadium that has perfectly manicured bushes all the way around, and they haven't been ruined by rowdy fans, then come on. I feel like LSU fans have more of a gripe than Georgia fans. LSU fans would pee on those bushes constantly.

They would never not pee on those bushes. But shouldn't they be more upset that he didn't mention them? Oh, yeah. Like that's the more egregious omission, right? Like in terms of like the loudest, he probably hasn't played LSU. That's, oh, okay. Because he's in the east and they're in the west.

Maybe he's played him. I don't know. Tonka. Tonka. Go Tonka. I'm running for Tonka. Deon Sanders did something similar. Nebraska fans are very upset about this.

They got Matt Rule going at it. Because they just said it's personal. They've done it's two weeks in a row. In week one, Chatur, I think the offensive coordinator for TCU, Ken Obriles, didn't recruit Chador hard enough, and they took it personally. Something like that, or didn't talk to him. And then this week, Matt Ruhle, I don't know really what their beef was with Matt Ruhl, but Dion is also conjuring, not conjuring up, but he is finding personal angles to make his players feel slighted and disrespected. And like I said, if it's working, I mean, I don't, all is fair and love and war. Yeah, I guess.

Football is both, isn't it? I did is it love how's it love how's football love I love football that's true give me another point Tj why do you keep getting point one to minus one fucking I'm fucking killing you dude I'm running laps around you um Tj I'd be remiss if I didn't notice that the new studio countdown is up to 39 days 39 days

that's that's getting into uh it's almost getting in November at that point getting close to November yeah that would I stand by my statement that if we are covering the college football national championship in our new studio i will consider that a big one i'm going to go further and say the college basketball national championship yes if we're doing the final four preview from our studio if we're a preview in next year's college football season right and that's the shit of it is the studio is going to be awesome and it's going to open up this show because we're going to have i won't be here to see it my contract will run out we're going to have Nintendo 64 right here i'm going to play Mario card song we might even do the show

anymore. Yeah. How much do you think Dion has left in the tank with the motivational speeches? He's two games into his career. I'd say he's got a lot left in the tank of motivation. Like Dion is a master marketer, right? And he's been a master marketer his whole life. I think he'll be able to convince those guys.

I meant like the pregame speeches. Oh, because they're good? Yeah, because they're so fucking good. Okay, okay. You can't throw out banger after banger 13 weeks and then run it back the next year. And because like at this point in his career, every time he does a pregame speech, they're going to be a ton of cameras. They're going to make it public. Yeah.

Yeah, do you think, like, I think he's got half a season before, before. Like if they beat Oregon or beat USC, I don't think you can play the disrespect card anymore. They'll be like number three in the country. They'll be number two in the country. What would be funny if Colorado starts losing and then we find out one of the one of the reasons why that's coming out of the Colorado camp is they believe that Dion Sanders is spending too much time. Practices. Like he's like a pastor writing out a sermon. And he's like, he's flipping through his Bible trying to find scripture.

You think he's doing film study trying to find that stuff? Like, oh, I'm watching the, I'm watching the Colorado State Press Conference. Leave me alone. I'm looking for a weakness here. Colorado got stomped in the Pac-12 championship, and it's because Dion forgot to. Dion was working on Oregon State material. All right, it's 930. You want to do segments?

I will before I tell you about, but first I'm going to tell you about Cars.com. Cars.com is incredible. And you get ready, by the way, because I want to try this out. Okay, sure.

Did you buy the Jeep with this idea that, like, it's going to make you some type. It's going to change you more. I wanted to be 20-year-old Brandon Walker again, who had a white Jeep Wrangler, a 95 Jeep Wrangler, and man, you should have seen him tight as he was a machine. Yeah. This guy. Yeah. Probably was mediocre as hell, but it felt good.

Yeah. And that's who I'm trying to be. Cool. Cars. Find your next possibility on Cars.com. Where to next? All right. Here.

Am I doing this? I want to try your voice. By the way, I think I have your headphones again. So the cord is just awkwardly hanging around. I want to give you a try out. This voice, I got to use this voice as much as I can. Give me an ad read. Okay, so I'm just reading these right here.

That's what an ad read. Okay, I got you. I just wanted to make sure I was reading the right thing. Cars.com is a leading digital marketplace that connects. No, no, no, no. Yeah, you're in your daily voice. You're in your daily voice. Yeah, sorry.

Cars. Cars.com. Cars.com is a leading digital marketplace that connects car shoppers with their perfect car. You're still a little high. You're still a little high. All right. One more. One more.

That's true. Cars.com is a leading digital marketplace that connects car shoppers with their perfect car. Celebrating 25 years of helping shoppers research, find inventory, finance, and sell cars. Wherever life takes you next and whoever you're looking to be, there's a car for that on cars.com. That's pretty good. You doubted me for a second. I knew it was in there. That's pretty good. Yeah, I just did. Yeah. Find your next possibility on cars.com. Was that Gus Johnson over there?

Where to next? He doesn't get Gus Johnson. He does. He's good at that, dude. He did it yesterday, too. It was awesome. All right. You will try out some segments? Yeah, let's do it. You want to go first? You want me go first? Wacky Wednesday.

It's here we go. We're trying to see what works. Yeah, we are. Yeah, let us know in the chat. Let it however else you communicate these days. I'll go with my submission first. You go first because I think yours has the sticking power, I think. I think this one's going to stick around.

This is my best idea. Let's start with the best. Let's put our best foot forward. All right. Here's my idea for a segment every Wednesday at 930. And frankly, it's just recognizing who has the power. and the talent in my family. Ladies and gentlemen, I give you the Tommy Walker Minute.

I don't understand ghosts. I don't understand how they can take any form, how they can possess you, how they can just float around, or how they can distort reality to their will. But I don't understand most about ghosts is how they can take any form. They could be anywhere, anything. I've encountered some before. They just left me alone.

Whoa, you've encountered some before? answered some before? Where? You didn't hear about the Watchers? That's a movie. That's not a movie. All right. The Watchers are a race of ghosts. A race of ghosts? Ghosts.

Okay. They take the form of shadows. All right. And they end up just liking to scare people. All right. Thank you, Tommy. Bye. Bye. So, the idea behind the Tommy Walker

a minute is I'm just going to turn the camera on. Say, Tommy, what are you thinking about today? I bet Tommy for the first time when I came to your house, Labor Day, a weekend. Yeah. And, oh, my God, I couldn't get enough. You had heard the stories. I'd heard the stories, and I'd seen him, like, pop in on the yak every so often, but I wasn't sure, like, how much you were coaching him when you're like, all right, son,

when you come on. How much am I coaching him? You're coaching him, none. None. The first, I think the first thing he said when I met him, was we were just sitting around as you uh by by your by your lake and he just like runs up and he's like here's what i don't understand how can he he and he points to you how can he drink sweet tea every single day and still be alive and then he just like ran away yeah that's one of his

favorite bits how can he still how can he drink tea every day sweet tea every day for 40 years and still be alive and he says that whatever but i ran into the conversation said it and then ran away and i was like so is Tommy Walker a minute? That's a keeper, right? That's a hit. I think my favorite part about that video is at the end where it looks like he's going to be like the cartoon

where it's like, got a blast. And then he goes like he's about to spin away into a sweet. He starts running in place. We actually filmed two of those last night. The second one quite problematic. Oh. So.

So. He had 9-11 thoughts? He got on his magazine. He was like, dad. I did my own research. with 9-11 Here are my thoughts No, it was about

Leprechauns And He used alternate words For leprechauns And it got crazy No, it was fine Oh no I might use that one for next week

But that's the keeper We'll do Tommy Walker Minute every Wednesday All right, now what's yours? This one is a little Yeah I don't know how I feel about this one anymore

I'm getting a little stage fright Now that we're here But I had an idea For a segment That's just called What are the White Women up to. TJ, what are the white women up to?

Looks like this. Have you ever heard of this? Would you try it? It's just bungee fitness. Look at them. They are all white women. That's all. That's all it was.

That's what they're up to. That's all was. My algorithm, you're going to, you're going to, to say bonk and say I'm horny, whatever. But I genuinely mean this. My algorithm is a bunch of white women stuff on Instagram because I just get so fascinated with like the white women that like just make the videos that are just kind of dancing

in front of the camera and then they point and then like a graphic pops up and it's like when you take your four kids to school. Right. Yeah, yeah. As a single mom. And then you're like and then you make spaghetti for dinner. Yeah.

And I can't get enough. is that your algorithm? I don't know. I'm like so fucking fascinated with it. I'm so fascinated with it. All right. Anyway, I don't mind.

What are the white women up to? I kind of like, what are the white women up to? Let's give that another try next week. That gets the second try. That comes back. It's funnier. That's funnier with the music,

but I think we can't do that on YouTube. That's correct, TJ. We've probably done like nine things we can't do on YouTube already. It's a recording intro to that one. It's funnier with the, that clip was funnier with like the music that they're playing as they're done. What kind of music is it? Shitty.

It's a shitty, shitty, shitty music. Okay, all right. That is exactly what I would have predicted for that video. Let me, let me. Can I try one more? Because I feel like you got another one? I had one more. Give it to me.

If the white women, if the white women idea doesn't work, I had an idea for the WMBA Immaculate Grid on Wednesday. I would, yeah, I'm open to that. Any Immaculate Grid, I like you see how smart I am. You like trivia. I love trivia. I love trivia.

And you know, as a big WNBA guy, I love to prove my knowledge. That was my other idea. I knew that Tommy Walker was going to stick, so I wanted to come like with a couple, and I wanted to see which one you like better. I would,

mm-hmm. CJ, pull up the WMBA Immaculate. Do we have one? Yeah, there's one every day. I thought you were kidding. No, every day.

So this person played for the Michigan, the Washington Mystics and the- Minnesota Links. Is that, no, that's his Minnesota Link. This is Las Vegas. That's Phoenix Mercury at the top, right?

That's Phoenix Mercury. That's Washington. This is Denver. No, no, no. That's Chicago. That's Chicago Sky. That's Chicago Sky. Washington missed it.

Ebo, you can get in on this. Everybody, this is a team effort. Eight plus rebounds a game in a season. I got top right. I got our first one. Bernie Griner. Wait, that's just a person that she has to. Bois.

I think that's a win. I think we're off. That's it. That's the game. Did Lauren Jackson ever have? 95%. Who is? Who is?

That's the Aces, bottom left we said. Yeah. Who's the MVP? Is that Kelsey Plum? Is she on the Aces? But she's a guard, right? I don't think she's played anywhere else. I would remember.

Yeah. Fun segment, right? Candace Parker? Fun segment. So our record is one. It's one. One out of nine. We'll try to beat that next week.

Good luck to us. Let me hit one more college thing before we move on to our other silliness. And we're going to have to break out the hat very soon. Okay. Week three of college football is objectively terrible. There's not, I don't know if there's a ranked matchup. There's not a ranked matchup. This year.

Are you saying like this is a common game? This weekend Saturday games are awful. Like the biggest games are Florida, Tennessee, LSU and Mississippi State. A couple of SEC games and a couple of non-NCC games, but none of them are really big. It's one of the worst slates I've ever seen. But when I go online and I say that, hey, this is not a good slate. College football fans are so sensitive. They're like, well, two months ago, you were to kill it for college football.

You should be happy to have it. No, it's a made-for-TV product, right? It's supposed to entertain, and what they're giving us is garbage. They're not giving it. Like, next week we got Notre Dame Ohio State. Next week we got Clemson, Florida State. Next week we got Oregon, not, yeah, Oregon, Colorado. It's laid out for us next week.

If these TV networks are going to, have such a hand in realignment. They need to also have a hand in making sure they're giving us a good product every week. That's what I think. I think football is like sex, Brandon. Even when it's bad, it's good. I never, but, oh. And also, I'm not good at it.

And also, I don't fully understand it. And it smells a little bit. And it smells a little bit. And also, no, I think we have enough football sex. I like watching. I watch it on TV more than what's going on. Oh, no,

the cat just came to the window and front slashed Brandon. He's cut. Brandon. What do you mean? What's going on? We're in the same. You and I are sitting in the exact same room. I'm seeing all the exact same people that are walking by.

I didn't do that, Titus. Big Cat walked up to the window. I saw him do that. But okay. And what did I do? I kept a professional, the people watching at home listening. Why? You did not keep a professional.

Why don't you go on, You should go on pick him. I'm not allowed on pick him. Go on pick up. I've been there three years. I've ever been on pick. We're going to get a new. We're going to get a new.

I'm going to get a new psychic for this show. Yeah. But yeah, you're right. It's not a, it's not a good slate, but it's, oh. That's funny.

That's very funny. It's not a great sleep, but whatever, whatever. It's football. Who cares? It's a good weekend to like, I will say this.

Week one and two, and then like, the first week one of NFL, which was the first big weekend of like the Saturday, Sunday whole weekend of watching football, I was kind of exhausted from doing nothing. So I do, I really got to pace yourself. You got to pace yourself. I was so excited to just sit on my ass all weekend. And then like midway through the second slate on Sunday, I was like, I haven't done fucking anything in two days. Like this is, I haven't even seen outside, you know. So I think a weekend like this in college or Saturday like this in college football, every so often, we, we haven't done.

where you can still watch the football, and I will. But not be married to it. But not be married to it. Where, like, I can run a few errands in the middle of the day, all that sort of thing. I think this is a nice, I think we need this every song. We can have banger after banger every week. I feel like you can. All right.

You got 15 weeks. Why not do 15 bangers? Is that crazy? 15 bangers? All right. Somebody's got an album. I get both points. Somebody's got an album out there with 15 bangers, right?

Bon Jovi, Slipper, you and wet? I wanted to do Heisman talk with you. Go ahead. But you seem resistant to it. I'm not resistant to it. I think it's early. It is early, but that's how this works. What do you want to wait till all the games are played?

And then we'll talk about it. Do you want to know who I think is going to win the Heisman or who should win the Heisman if it were given away today? Yeah, who should win it if it was given away today? Quinn Ewers. Okay. Quinn, Chidor or Jordan Travis, those are the three to me. And Caleb Williams has been excellent as well.

I think Caleb Williams has to be in that group as well. Yeah, he's probably in that group too. So I would say that's the four. But I'm judging it based on Quinn Ewers has the best. accomplishment so far individually. He went on the road through for 360 and three touchdowns, and frankly, was the reason his team beat Alabama, beat the top five team on the road. So if the vote happened today, I think Shador Sanders would probably win. Shudor Sanders would probably win. I think he'd probably win it because he's thrown for 900 yards.

He's been excellent. He's been perfect. Like, he has been perfect. Like, he doesn't make bad throws. He doesn't make bad decisions. And he throws everything perfectly. He also has the, he's benefiting from the failed plays are even highlights. Like the two-point conversion against Nebraska, when people are coming away from your failed play, like when Mahomes is throwing an underhand sidearm and it's an incomplete pass, but people are still like, holy shit, did you see that play? Shedrus Sanders has that now, where even the plays that are incomplete or don't count. They looked perfect.

Not only do they look perfect, but everybody's talking about him. That's one of the things you need, though, as a Heisman contender, is you need awesome highlights. And if you don't have awesome highlights, it's going to be hard to win. So he's already done that. And even in some plays that don't go right, he's looking like a. a superstar. Caleb Williams has been too good. We'll have to find out this is going to be our biggest test in a while of second year.

Why not give him the Heisman? Because I know he won't. I know. They'd never want to give it to him, but why not? I think by the end of the year, it's going to be egregious to not give it to Caleb Williams. And they're not going to give it to Caleb Williams. And I'm just going to be like, what are we doing? Like this guy is so obviously the best player in college football.

You know, he's going to have a prime time match up with Shador Sanders. Right. Yeah. So he could take the lead on Shador. there. Texas, Texas is going to be tricky because I don't, they've already had their marque game. They're going to have some big games, but nothing like they've already had. So I, I think Quinn yours is going to be in the mix all year. Yeah, Caleb will suffer from one being on the West Coast, which I know Colorado is out west, but it's, they can get, they can get a little, you know,

like they play, they play Nebraska at 10 a.m. local time. They're like Colorado can play to the East Coast game, to the East Coast media a little bit easier. Caleb Williams is going to run into problems of that. and also run into problems like he did against Stanford where he's like just pulled in the second quarter or whatever he was, where people just, yeah, he's almost too good. And I do wonder if he'll lose like a 52-51 game

and that might ding him a little bit even though it shouldn't. That would be dumb because that's a defense. Because he couldn't tackle. Right, right. Caleb Williams wasn't. But that's what. Heism voters are kind of the worst voters we have in this country.

As soon as a guy loses a game in like in October, he falls to the back of the line, even though, like Bryce Young last year. Yeah. Bryce Young won the year before. last year he finished sixth, okay? His two losses, 32 to 31 on the road to LSU, 52 to 49 in Tennessee. He did everything he could.

Yeah. He was great, and he didn't get close. Yeah. So, but that's- But Caleb Williams also, I think, is better than Bryce Young. I would say so. I mean, Caleb Williams is probably the best quarterback we've had in a long time. Well, since Trevor Lawrence, even though Trevor Lawrence didn't want a hysman.

But I think- Trevor Lawrence was, like Trevor Lawrence was good, but he was- He never put up the numbers. He didn't have the impact Caleb Williams had on the term. He was too. He was terrible. He was too, like, he was robotic. Like what I was telling you about yesterday,

like the difference between watching Nebraska in Colorado when I was growing up. I was like, I get it. Nebraska is like good, whatever, you know. Like that's, that's, Caleb Williams is like both good. And if you're like a scout and like a, you're an old head football guy, you watch Caleb Williams and you're like, God damn, he's so good at like the little things. Yeah. But then he also appeals to like the zoomers that are just like.

He's a sports car. Caleb Williams is a sports car. He's a 2024 sports car. And Trevor Lawrence was a sedan. Great. Yes. Great car. And one of the best cars on the road.

but not, you know, not as flashing. Caleb Williams is great fundamentals, but he also can fumble the snap and scramble around. And throw it 90 yards, yeah. Yeah, launch it from his dick, 90 yards. I don't know that I've ever seen him launch it from his dick. Just fucking just launches it from it.

You understand that I thought, I just, with two Monday night, was a Sunday night game and Monday night game in New York, it confused me. That's all that. That's what happened. You're still on that? That's what happened.

He'll be on that. That was pretty egregious. It was bad. But I don't think you should have taken a point away for it. No, you should have taken more than one. Where's the scoreboard? I haven't even seen the scoreboard. It's in my head.

What's the score? It's who's lines it anyway? It's five to negative one now. You've got five? What did you get five? Well, it's cumulative, like from yesterday as well. We're just racking them up. I think you lost a point on the ad too because Connors was really good.

Yeah, you lost a point yesterday reading that because you had to have Connor finish it for you. That was Ebo's fault. Yeah. Who was your favorite guy on whose lines anyway? Mine was either, obviously, Colin Macri, or Ryan, Stiles. Yeah. Yeah. Which one do you like, Colin O'Ryan?

Uh, probably Colin. Colin's funny. I like Colin. Yeah, I think, yeah, I think it's Colin. You guys should, uh, I've had an idea for the yak. Maybe you've already thought about doing this or you guys have already done it, but I think it'd be funny if you did play whose lines anyway on the yak. Like you used, um.

Their games and everything. Yeah, their games. How bad would that be? That would be awful. That would be awful. But all of you would just like shrink into, not all of you. I'm sure there are some people that would rise in vacation. Playing scenes from a hat.

Yeah. The cats over there with a big American hat. No, it would have to be exclusively Che. Speaking. It's the only person. It's Brandon. Che's line is it anyway. It's Che's the hat.

It's in any way. Speaking of hats, I need my hat. Is it time to get silly? It's almost Tintill. We've entered a silly minute. How do we have all the silly hats? Oh, my God. Oh, yeah, here you go.

You want the silly one. Can we keep that bag year round for our new studio? I feel like having a Spirit Halloween. I think we're going to have a thing. I think by the time we open the studio, we'll have a hundred. hundreds of hats. What else? Set your hats.

What's going on in the world of sports? It's silly that you want to talk about. Not even the world of sports. What's going on? Sebo, set this up. This Marlins guy? What's going on with this guy? So this guy, Six-Dose-Sanchez ever heard of him?

Yeah, I thought he was a huge prospect. Yeah, massive prospect. Top 25 prospect in baseball. Pitch great in the COVID season. He just kind of disappeared off the face of the earth. He reappeared last night throwing 85 miles an hour. Looking a little chunky. Why did he disappear?

What happened to him? I don't know. I'm not a 6-0 Sanchez expert. He may be dealing with some injuries and stuff. But yeah, he just kind of like spawned. He respawned last night. He just showed up. Yeah.

Is that a Mississippi Braves game? I don't know why I'm asking. That's clearly their logo. So that's double A baseball sitting at 85 right now. So he's never even made the majors. So he's like, he did. He pitched in 2020. Yeah, great.

And in the COVID year. Excellent name too. So this is a guy that. fits the mold of the other guy we were talking about yesterday. Like, you just get sent down. You're just like, I like, I- like, what the hell? I dream last night that Marlins won the World Series for the third time.

And I remember my dream making the observation, wow, what a franchise. Every time they get to the World Series, they win it. Can I ask a question about that dream? Yeah. Do you know what uniforms they were wearing in your dream? Their current ones or the 97 Marlins? 97. I will never dream in current uniforms.

So if they make the World Series, they have to wear the throwbacks. Yeah, I will never ever dream in current uniforms. Like Utah Jazz is always going to wear the 90s uniforms. who we see the other day Arizona Diamondbacks change their color scheme They're always teal They will always be teal

The purple and teal Was Can I observe Can I observe this? Oh my God I mean Dan's clearly giving RICO A pep talk

Right in front of right outside the window That's fine Just ignore it We're doing a show Why do you think I'm professional Why do you hope for me to be professional? I just like Go back to New York

And host Barstall Radio If you want Brandon This is mostly sports god damn it And people tune in for sports mostly. That's what they're here for. They're not here to hear you talk about how you're watching Rico and then figure out where they're going to get lunch today. All right? This is serious fucking business.

I know we're in silly. We're in silly mode and you got the hat on. You just coach the hell out of me. There's this going on in the world of sports that has been called to my attention that I actually haven't told anybody about this. TJ, it might take you a second to find this. in the South Korean basketball leagues apparently they are you nodding your head

I just see this last year Yeah okay all right They are they It's like a thing in South Korea To teach basketball players To bank in free throws And so this is like the trend In the South Korean Basketball League

Is that when you take a free throw You try to bank it in And like apparently all these dudes are just shooting great free throw percentages Banking the men What's the logic here? That they make the free throw And even if they don't bank it in

They don't make the free throw quite as often. So they're trying to get more points. See, basketball. You think there's any statistical validity to that anywhere? I don't know. When you play Papa shot, that's my strategy. Hit the backboard and let it fall in.

Yeah. Would you be, so this is. Would I be willing to do it? This is a Malcolm Gladwell thing that he's like, he's really big on a, that, that guy should, in the NBA that can't be free throws should chew granny style. Right. And he thinks that people, that the NBA players have too much of an ego and are too embarrassed to to try it.

So that's my question, you Brandon, would you be willing to to shoot granny style or banking free throws? I don't know that I would be willing to shoot granny style. I think I would be willing to bank it in. I mean, that's still, it doesn't make it easier in my mind, but I guess they think there's some sort of advantage. Okay, so I think the thought that goes into it is if you're shooting for a swish, you can miss left, you can miss right, you can miss long, you can.

long you can miss short, right? Right. Right. Or some combination thereof. Right. If you're, if you're banking it, you can, but it's a lot harder to miss long. You're only going to right or left. It's hard to miss too long on a bank shot. It's hard to hit too hard because like you could, the variation of how hard you're shooting. So you just kind of shoot it kind of hard off the glass. And as long as you shoot it straight, it's going to go in. I was always told aim for the back of the rim when shooting free throws because that way you would never come up short late in the game. So I would imagine that just takes it to an. to another level.

Just try to... So I guess if you just shoot straight, you're shooting at a target from 15 feet away. Yeah. But if you're shooting bank every time, you're really shooting at a target that's like an inch, foot and a half away? I mean, that's,

you're just, you're letting the bank do the work. Yeah, that's what, yeah. I like that. There might be something to it. I think I would do it. I like that.

If I was a 60% free, no, how bad would you have to be to work on, like 40% free throw shooter? If I'm below 50, I would try it. Yeah. I think it's just like if you get fouled

on purpose in late game situations. If you're jogging up the court and you don't even have the ball and Greg Popovich is like, foul that guy, that to me is more embarrassing than shooting granny style. Now, 100 free throws a day for the next month. What's your percentage?

Be careful what you say here because we will be able to tell us. There's a reason I'm saying. I like to think that I could hit, I would put the over under at 75. That seems low. I was going to put mine at 70. If I'm shooting 100, fatigue starts to factor in.

That's what I'm saying. Like if I'm shooting 10, yeah, I feel good about hitting 8 out of 10. 10 a day. 10 a day for. And then we just track it every day. Yeah, I like to think I could hit 80. Because there will be some days I'll hit six. I'm still going for seven.

I'm seven out of 10. I feel like. Yeah. I'll hit every day at least six. And you can put that down. Write that down. Put that shit down. Put that shit down.

That's in stone. There will not be a day that I. All right. Mexicans found aliens? Is that? Mexico has aliens? And they appear to be made of paper machet? What's so?

Why? They said that's aliens? What's going on here? Where did this come from as far as the story? Like, was this something that they were, because I feel like they... They gave it a nice... There was no tease of this.

No, interest is just popped out today. I saw no promos. There was no, everybody tune in on Wednesday. We're going to drop a bomb on you. I'm having trouble with the hat. Um, yeah, what, they just, they just straight up said we, we have an alien. What's up with the face? It's set differently.

How old is this alien? Is this ancient alien? Yeah. Evo, you don't know anything about this alien. 10,000 years, I think they said. 10,000 years. This and then, yeah, catching the guy in Pennsylvania today has been an all-time news morning. Really?

Yeah. Tell me about catching the guy in Pennsylvania? So he was on the loose for 13 days. He was a convicted killer. He was going all around Chester County, Pennsylvania, changing identities. and everything like that. Police couldn't find him. He was armed, apparently.

And then Dog the Bounty Hunter came in yesterday. And he was like, I think I'm going to join the manhunt. And within 24 hours, they found him. And then they took a picture today. It was a bunch of people, like the entire squad team.

I don't know what you would call him. They were just taking a picture with this guy after they had caught him. Yeah. I saw this video. This is amazing. It's wild. They posted up with him.

And he's wearing an eagle shirt too, so all the Philly pages are. Oh my God. The whole squad took a picture on him. It's on I've never seen anything like it Did you see how he escaped that I have the oh yeah The escape video Is this viewed in a negative light that they're doing this

Because I think this is awesome I don't know This is this feels like a video out of Central America This does not feel like this is just what like fishing guys do Or on a big tuna The softball team just won a championship Yeah This one's going on Facebook for sure

The dogs in the picture Look at the way he escaped The guy who got caught like turned to the guys Can I get a copy of it? text text me that text me that I need to use that this is him all right so he just checks the quarter uh-huh whoa whoa whoa is uh I'll be seeing you go later I that's and he's gone and he's gone what did the lookout get for that why why wouldn't the lookout do the same thing what what did the lookout get in that situation also you know what I just went up hey man what

watch my back I'm going to leave all right see you you know where my mind goes is that Every single prison break movie or TV show or anything else you ever see is like the most intricate fucking thing you've ever seen. The show Prison Break, the guy literally gets tattoos all over his body of the blueprints of the prison. It takes a full season of television for him to break out of the prison. And this guy is just like, I'm just going to walk up to this wall. Check out this wall right here. There's a little parkour. There's a hole up there.

Yeah. The reboot of Prison Break. Yeah. Michael Schofield takes off his shirt and the tattoo just says parkour. I was just. I never watched that show. It was great. Season one was awesome.

That's what I heard. Season one was awesome. But then you run out of things to do. Well, the show is called prison break. And when you break out of prison. Didn't they have to break back into prison or something? He broke into prison. Yeah.

The show's called prison break. And when you, when season one finale, you've broken out of prison, I think the writers go into the meeting for season two and they're like, ah. Oh, fuck. I did not expect this. Ah, shit. Isn't, isn't it like a law in Germany or something that, um, maybe Germany's not right

Spain, Brazil name some other countries France it could be France there's a lot somewhere where uh Italy I think it's Germany

where if you break out of prison they don't add anything to your your sentence because they're like we get it you earned it no they're just kind of like we get it you know like you're in prison

prison kind of sucks yeah prison kind of sucks like I don't blame you honestly I wonder if there's a country out there that like if you escape from jail three times you win your freedom like you beat us you beat the system do you do you fantasize more about breaking out of prison

and how you would do it or robbing a bank 100% yeah robbing a bank do people still rob banks feels like it's it's going out a little bit I think so I don't think it's as romantic oh Belgium Belgium not almost Germany that's close to Germany similar flags that's German presenting yeah um not punishable by law yeah I think So you don't, you break out of prison. You don't, it's just like, if you're in prison. So they come get you as, hey, come on, man. Yeah, that's how they do.

They're like, you rascal. Come on. There's a prison in Thailand that they, I think it's Thailand that they made a movie about, that they have a moitai tournament of all of like really bad people, like convicted felons. And whoever wins the moitai tournament gets freedom, gets to walk for free. Oh, that's awesome. That should be, that should be on ESPN in August. Oh my God.

That should be like what we get to watch before. football season. That's so good. I'd watch the shit out of that. That's so good. I can't say it. Moitai. Moitai tournament for freedom. Moy Thai. Huh. Yeah, that'd be fun. Anything else? You guys are playing, both playing in the dozen tournament tonight, I think. Are we? Jeff asked me to ask you to promote it. Oh, yeah.

Tonight, the dozen tournament, he's playing. Do you remember who you played? I play Chris Castellani. All right, and I play Rico Bosco. Yeah. Rico Bosco. So the winner of our match, if I remember right, will face each other. Yeah. So it could be me and you. Could be. Could be Rico versus Rico. Yeah.

Could be me versus Rico. Talk about it. Could be you versus Chris Castellani. I think those are all the options. I'm glad you kept talking there. You saved me from saying something. Did you see, did you see, I had something I wanted to mention before you go. The clip of Shannon Sharp calling Stephen A. Skip.

Again, is he doing it on purpose? he already did it he's done it i know of at least once but then he did it again yesterday and it is one of the funniest things i've ever seen because the the severity with which both of these men are treating this yeah like it's an obvious slit like Shannon sharp just is just blacking out and he's just like he just gets in the zone and it's just well and just says skip because that's in our test show i was pissed when you call me tape for so he calls he calls him skip and then immediately just two fists to the table like God. Fuck!

But you know he's like going to go home and just like self-harm to punish himself. But then Stephen A is like consoling him like Shannon just got the news that his family has been all murdered in a horrific, you know, he's like, my brother, it's okay. It's okay. We're going to get through this. Dude, that is one of the fun of seven years. Seven years. It's okay.

It's okay. It's okay. It's okay. Life. We can do. We'll get you a therapist. We'll get you a therapist. Oh my God.
