We had a couple of errors. Look, at the end of the day, it had been 40 years since we had performed that well.
Starting point is 00:02:09 So there was a, that was the game of the cup so far. Talk about Mexico, you know, they had a good game. Team USA, what the fuck was that? No, Team USA looked fucking hot. That was actually the biggest vibe still ever. I was angry. When Tillman made the, uh, the kick, the failed kick. Oh my God, it was like the life got, dude, he put right back into America and then they just got slaughtered.
Starting point is 00:02:31 He texted me bang, and then 30 seconds later, they scored to go up again? I mean, it was dreadful. How was, I don't even know soccer how was the atmosphere in there? The atmosphere was,
Starting point is 00:02:42 I'll tell you one thing, it was massive. It's not big, apparently it's not bigger than the Cowboys Stadium, AT&T Stadium. Jerry World? No way.
Starting point is 00:02:52 Apparently it's not bigger. As my pa. What's that called again? The Azteca. The Azteca. What's that mean? The Aztec. The Aztec.

Starting point is 00:03:13 Oh, yeah, good ones. Like ruins and shit? Yeah, we also brought the concept of zero to the world and also taught the world. You ain't an Aztec. What? Brother, you would have got eaten alive by a saber-tooth. Are you kidding me? Dude, let me tell you something.
Starting point is 00:03:27 And then you would have got sacrificed. They would have cut your heart out and said, the sun god. Yeah, fuck. I would have been the one cutting the hearts. You ever seen apocalyptic? Yes, of course I've seen apocalyptic. It's inaccurate. That ain't you, bro.
Starting point is 00:03:39 Mostly, but yeah. That ain't you. Yes, it is. 100%. You're a diamond rank cod player. Okay, first of all, Diamond three. Secondly, I know that you've seen my athleticism, even in my condition. No, he texted me last night.

Starting point is 00:05:30 it was one of the best games that I've ever seen. I was gassed being there. So I know that everybody there had to have been gassed. I talked to an English dude at the airport. I know I'm talking a lot. So please and I know, you're good. I talked to an English dude at the airport. I was like, I was like, I heard the rain helped you.
Starting point is 00:05:45 And then he's like, no, no, we knew that we're going to. He's like, are you Mexican? I'm like, yeah, a little bit. And then he's like, he's like, yeah, no, we knew that we were going to win from the beginning. I'm like, relax, dude, relax. I'm like, you're not gas. He's like, no.
Starting point is 00:05:56 I'm like, what the fuck? I'm gassed. bro, Hector called me last night and it was like he didn't even want to call me. Did you not mean to call me? Because you were like, I just drove by your house. And I was like, oh, cool. Yep. The gum you just kicked out?
Starting point is 00:06:08 No, I was not. Yeah, I was driving. You were just destroyed? No. I was like, how was the trip? And he was like so short with it? I was like, what the fuck? It was good.
Starting point is 00:06:15 It was just such a short call. I was actually at my way to Matt's and I was driving by you. And I was like, yo, if you're outside, wave, I'm going to fucking about to drive by. So you go see him, but you just call me. Literally. Yeah, I was just going to say, well, up man I hadn't seen my boy in a minute speaking of Zinney got slammed last night how so he bet on the United States how much yeah I did yeah yeah I'm I'm a patriot yes
Starting point is 00:06:38 I get it and he just fourth and he just paid for it I lost I lost something something slight like 1500 2,500 okay that's good that's I mean any money that you lose is not a good on a good day I just I just really believed in him I did too so did I was like law through the hype videos. I was like, oh, fuck yeah. Oh, yeah. The hype video got me gas. I was like, fuck yeah. The most expensive ticket in sports history. The most expensive game to go to in sports history was the Mexico-Uk game.
Starting point is 00:07:08 Really? The most expensive ticket in sports history. Why? Because it's... Supplying demand. I wonder if England, Norway is going to... I wonder if they're going to keep topping each other. No.
Starting point is 00:07:21 Because England versus Holland is a pretty insane game. Portugal, Spain was crazy. Yes, it was. That was a good game. I just wish Holland was on like one of the teams. Dude, I'm going for Holland. Dude is like some now. Norway is fun.
Starting point is 00:07:35 I'm going for Holland, period. The whole stadium starts rowing. Norway is fun. Oh, yeah. What's weird? Okay, so I've been learning, I guess, a lot more about soccer through the World Cup. It's fun to watch and then trying to learn. Holland is like a weird superstar because every other superstar I watch is technical, right?
Starting point is 00:07:53 like messy Mbapé, they're all, you can tell like, yo, that guy's dirty. He's dribbling around people making mechanically just nice. He's kind of like a crocodile. He's like floating around the net, walking around, but then he strikes with insane impact. He's like such an interesting superstar. He is really like a crowd. That's a good reference. He's got short bursts of speed, but lethal.
Starting point is 00:08:13 He just, well, no, no, I mean. He just walks. And then as soon as he. You've seen him sprint, though, surely. He sprints like, there's a, Matt, can you bring up the clip that everyone's talking about right now it's it's all over Twitter it's his goal this last one he was just scanning and then he gets the ball
Starting point is 00:08:29 and turns around like he doesn't sprint until the very last second when he that's what Messi does nowadays he just scans and doesn't move and then gets the ball and scores that's not true totally not a ball nor where please look it up well no this right here look it on this is what Messi does just a crock in the water
Starting point is 00:08:45 he's a decoy right now he's just chilling and then bang he's just playing dump croc it out death row look look I'm getting going I'm getting going and Gazelle Gazelle Gazelle Fuck yeah. Dinner. Haolin.
Starting point is 00:08:55 Haolin. Used to look just like his dad. Something, something, something, something. I texted you last night. Is likes him now because she likes like his mannerisms and shit and how trolly he just looks and is and how good he is. Just makes no sense.
Starting point is 00:09:08 I mean, he flies through the air. You've seen the one where he literally like flips him. He runs and then he flips himself upside down and then he fucking scores the goal. Upside down. And it's not a Chile either. It's not like bicycle kick. And he's vlogging too. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:21 Did you see? Is it? You see his teammates calling him a loser because he ordered a water? No. He's like, yeah, they make fun of me not. But when I score the goals, they sip it up. Nah. How's the 4th of July?
Starting point is 00:09:34 I'm sad I miss it, but I'm happy that I did also. Yeah, it wasn't anything crazy. We just drank a little bit, ate a little bit. I was on the grill. I saw that. Dude, that grill, I need to fix it because the flames should not be coming up like that. It's the grease. It's a grease from the burgers just making the flames go out.
Starting point is 00:09:50 I was trying to get them off. And every time I went in for a burger, I was like, Yelping. Yeah, because of grease. Yeah. You're good, man. They were good, though, right? Burgers are good, yeah.

Starting point is 00:10:11 But it's just, it's a classic now. It's like a staple. I can't. It has a staple everywhere that I want, any gathering I want to see one of those. I can't stop because I'll make a plate, like for portion control, and I'll go sit down on the couch, and then as soon as I'll just get up and do it again. I just walk back and forth and back and forth. It's the fourth.
Starting point is 00:10:27 There's no calories don't count on the fourth. Every holiday. Give yourself a chance. It's like the airport. It's in and out. Even though sometimes you don't shit for a week. Airplane calories actually don't count. Huh? Airplane calories actually don't count.
Starting point is 00:10:40 That's what I'm saying. You drink 10 beers, whatever. Ten beers. You were fucking going in and those drinks on the plane.

Starting point is 00:13:13 Look what? The ref was probably like, what the fuck? Bro, that. Okay. Secondly, this Belgian guy right here should not have scored that weak-ass. That weak-ass kick too. This one, look, what the hell? This is like, oh my God.

You know footie now? You know, I'm sorry. You big footie guy? Like, I'm sure there's a couple people who like lost faith in their heads after the
Starting point is 00:13:40 three-one. Like 2-1, you're like, yo, we're one away. That happens and you're down too. There is this little devil in the back of your mind like we're, fucked. Nah, man. Some of them. Some of the players are ready.
Starting point is 00:13:51 Some of the players are not ready. They should tell the U.S. that we need to invest more. Around like the 75-80 minute mark, you could tell our players were starting to be like that. It's G.G. Well, our star player,
Starting point is 00:14:03 Policicc, gets subbed out at what? 50 minutes? He had no more gas in him. He was hurt. He was hurt apparently. Yeah, yeah. Did they ever say what it was? Wait, what is this?
Starting point is 00:14:11 Did we see, go up, go, go, referee pointing his camera at Matt Free. Is that the goalie? Is that the goalie, Matt Fries? You were watching? I mean, I don't know his name. I fucking, dude, do you know me? I was just watching to watch.

Starting point is 00:14:55 He loves it. Hey, bro. Dude, they were good, man. They were good. It just sucks, too, that. Well, I guess it makes it funnier now in hindsight that Trump made the call to FIFA. Baligan plays that we still get fucking slaughtered. He wasn't there, right? No.
Starting point is 00:15:09 Who wasn't there? He knew we were about to get some out. Donald? Oh, bro. He was like, I can't show face. He's about Iraq. Fucking Belgium. The FIFA is.
Starting point is 00:15:17 not only one of the most corrupt fucking organizations in the fucking world. I don't know if we should put that in there because in case, we're not going to fucking work with them I don't think. Anyway,
Starting point is 00:15:25 fucking doesn't matter. Any deals, FIFA? Listen, FIFA, I'll change my mind. No, I'm kidding. I won't. Dude.
Starting point is 00:15:33 We're everywhere. No, no, I just don't think like, what does the president have to do? Why is he calling FIFA? That's awesome. No, it's not awesome.
Starting point is 00:15:39 But don't fucking Ben. No, it's awesome, but it's us. It's our fucking nation. What do you mean? It's our nation. What is our nation? What is that?
Starting point is 00:15:45 too. He's going to go to battle for our need. I get it, but the fact that FIFA reversed it shouldn't have happened. Secondly, apparently like it was, 80% of the population that was witnesses to this thing did say that it wasn't a red card thing. So majority of the populace. I didn't even see it, to be honest. No, yeah. He's just dying over there.
Starting point is 00:16:06 Yeah, what's going on? Can we fix his chair? He's just squeaking. He's just squeaking. He's just dying. That dude, that is good. Wait. Are you still laughing from what happened like five minutes ago?
Starting point is 00:16:16 Because I'll have her was squeaks. No, the clip he just watching the clip. That clip is good, man. The terror crying is good. Where was that? Anyway, long story short. No, Avalanche had the good tweet. He's like, corruption.
Starting point is 00:16:33 Wait, who said that? Avalanche? Yeah, go to Lanch's Twitter. He had a good tweet. He said, corruption when it's me. Just watch the clip. They live for those types of tweets. They love that.
Starting point is 00:16:44 Lanch, he strikes when the fucking iron is hot. It's scalding. You'll find it. With the rest of the time. You're going. I mean, look at him. He's just spam tweeting. Fucking beast.
Starting point is 00:16:55 Keep going. It was when to stop. Yo, that lady's fucking crazy. I mean, holy shit, brother. Yeah, he's loving it. Oh, my goodness. Oh, my God. He's tweeted more than me all year.
Starting point is 00:17:12 I'm going to be honest with you. Same. I'm going to be honest with you, same. Right here. That one. If I'm not involved. Yes. But if corruption is not bad.
Starting point is 00:17:28 Corruption is only bad if I'm not involved. Yes. Yeah. But if I'm part of that corruption, I defend it. Corruption. Yeah, see, because it was us. It was cool. Yeah. Of course. But that is kind of crazy.
Starting point is 00:17:46 It's House rules. You come. You're here. Yeah, you're in the country. You're a guest. No. Yeah, it's House rules. Uh-uh. You want to play slap cup. I'm going to make the fucking rules.
Starting point is 00:17:54 When you host, whether at your house or in this country, no, come on. You're the host. You're supposed to be welcoming and, you know, be open to. But you just said that people were saying it shouldn't have even been a red car. No, no, no, I agree. I was just bringing up the fact that the fact that this guy fucking called that guy. I don't know. And then that guy said, you're right.
Starting point is 00:18:15 He should have just done it because it was the right thing to do. 80% of the people thought that it wasn't. A lot of people were pretty split on that. No, 80%. 80% didn't think it was a right card? Correct. Of actual FIFA football watchers, not FIFA football watchers like us. No, we're good.
Starting point is 00:18:31 Yeah. Yeah, no, it's just deal. That's why I asked Jude, I'm like, yo, so was it or not? She's like, I don't think it was. And I'm like, but was it or not? She's like, 80% of the people thought that it was. I'm like, okay, then it was. Majority rules.
Starting point is 00:18:42 Typically, yeah, they do. Dude, I was watching, so the second half of the England, Mexico game, my girl and I started watching Obsession. we had this in the books Actually don't tell me Don't tell me But we had to pause
Starting point is 00:18:55 Because we had a bunch of bars Outside the apartment Yeah The fucking decimals They hit when Mexico scored We had the pause I couldn't hear the movie at all I was like what the fuck
Starting point is 00:19:06 Just happened Where were they? That's a long story Were they like in the square or something Where were they? No they were just at The bars around Oh okay
Starting point is 00:19:13 But like I know what bar they were at They went crazy That shit just echoes Off the buildings Dude the energy in the U.S. since the World Cup started has been awesome. It's like, it's kind of made me a fan.
Starting point is 00:19:28 Like, I want to try and get involved now. It's not going to be easy because I feel like you have to support. Supporting an MLS team is, you know what I'm saying? You can't. You have to pick like a... Can I interest you in West Ham United? Yeah, but then... Me and Bazinga listen, watch them.
Starting point is 00:19:39 Their games are weird schedule. What if they play at 9 a.m. 3 a.m. You're not saying up for that. Yeah, but that's why you got to try. You've got to get into it. But you can't get into the ground floor. You got to be really into it at that point. So what do we say, boys?
Starting point is 00:19:53 What? Westham? West Ham. West Ham? Up the tune. Well, because, well, so West Ham, then you have Tottenham. See, some of their teams are ham and some are, mm, Tottenham. You know what I'm saying?

Starting point is 00:20:17 Guys, pick a team for me. Two seconds. I'm sorry. Two, two, two, two, sentences that will convince these men to join your premier club. I'm Manchester United all the way, dude. Man, you? I'm just, I'm bandwagoning.
Starting point is 00:20:28 Dude, West Ham, dude, when you can get into the ground floor. I don't actually. Oh, okay. Yeah, I'm just throwing. And if you guys have never seen the movie called Green Street Hooligans in the United States, I urge you to watch it actually right now if you're enjoying the FIFA World Cup. It's about like, it's about the, um, yeah, bro. It's so fucking good.
Starting point is 00:20:49 You're never going to see Frodo Baggins in this light ever again. He's a badass in this, isn't he? Not at first. It's so good. Charlie Hunnam, obviously. When did it come out? Let me guess. Guy Ritchie.
Starting point is 00:21:03 No. No. It would have, 2005. It kind of has that vibe to it, though. 2005, dude. It's so good. Don't press no clips. Just go in on it.
Starting point is 00:21:14 Don't watch previews. Just go in on it. We put that shit about my smoke detector in, right? Yeah. Okay. So, we never found the solution. I'm just saying because I just, what do you mean? Sleep has been horrible.

Starting point is 00:21:37 Oh, really? Yeah, well, you didn't get a chance to go in on them? No, I just, I told him that I would bring the ladder and he said, you don't got a ladder that tall. My neck hurts. I wake up every like hour or not. Yeah, but the pod wasn't alive yet, I thought. No, that was the intro.
Starting point is 00:21:46 Oh, really? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Of course for time. Oh, okay. We record everything, dude. I was going to say, I need to go to a doctor, dude. I'm telling you shit. Some of the things you've been saying lately,
Starting point is 00:21:57 I has question how clever you've been. I had to look for my car. I could have sworn I parked on a different level, and I was like, wait, where's my car? It doesn't make a noise, right? I don't smoke, no. No, maybe you should start. It doesn't make a noise when you beep beep.
Starting point is 00:22:08 Well, it was like floors above. No. How do you forget? Sorry, big doubt. You don't have to say, you don't have a reserve parking spot? You got the Batman. The Batman garage.
Starting point is 00:22:16 that availability. I want to pay for it. There's always, there's always open spots. You'd pay for it, right, Seth? Wait, yo, is Riley announced that he had his babies? I don't know. Has he announced? Last night, it sent the registry to our group chat and I was crying. Wait, what registry? Riley? What the fuck? I don't have a fucking registry? I screenshotted the most expensive thing and I said, Riley put this on here just for Seth and he's sculled right past him. I'll have his send out. Yeah, please. What the fuck, Riley? I'm not going to get your shit now. No, I do. Um, yeah, I don't know if he announced that yet. You can get the stroller. Of course.
Starting point is 00:22:48 I always do. I mean, I say I don't know what I got. I don't know what is bought him. What did we get you? To E's pick some shit. I don't know. I usually just go. But we can't.

It was the most expensive item there. He put a nisprosso machine on there for a baby shower? That is awesome.
Starting point is 00:23:13 But he put a espresso on his? Actually. Time out. That is awesome. I'm not going to talk. That makes sense. I'm not going to talk shit. You got to get up.

Why do you know that? Because I'm just, I mean, I don't know. Hey, listen. We like to find your things to say to that.

I better be able to put my balls in that little where you put the grinds and it's just fucking licks my balls after as I'm drinking my coffee
Starting point is 00:24:34 for the morning. That is pretty great. 11 fucking thousand. That's fucking insane. I wouldn't even be able to use that. What does it do? Why does it do that? I came out of nowhere. Of course I like that. Why is that expensive?
Starting point is 00:24:45 I was glad I wasn't. drinking water in the moment. You gonna spit it out? I would have an actual one that I used. Bro, is spit-out show yesterday? I made her laugh so hard. Why? I don't want to say what I said.
Starting point is 00:24:54 It's not even bad. It's just. Yo, what is that? The C3PO. So stupid. That one on the left right there. What the fuck? Looks like R2D2.
Starting point is 00:25:02 The robot. 21K. Oh my God. But look at the cups. It's got a cup storage. You don't have storage, Greg. Yeah, my coffee fucking. I mean, dude, like, get a grip.
Starting point is 00:25:14 I need to rewind. It's got a, it's got the. The El Angel de la Independencia, the Mexican angel at the top. Ooh, I didn't even notice that. I need to rewatch that, dude. You said, Greg, $5 million is the worst place to be. You're the poorest rich man in your friend group. Get a K-cup thing, dude.
Starting point is 00:25:31 You said, five million is a nightmare. Have you watched Succession? Who small to make some moves? You haven't? You have to watch Succession? Wait, you don't want to go home and watch it right now. You should. You're going to go home.
Starting point is 00:25:43 I'm going after this. It's so good. Wait, House of the Dragon? I haven't seen the first episode. I'm waiting. I'm waiting. I'm caught up. I don't like that either when you got to wait.
Starting point is 00:25:53 I hate that shit. I'm waiting. Because you get left on a crazy cut in here. Because I'm going to start watching the whole thing again from the beginning. It's not really getting me, to be honest with you. Whoa, whoa, well, no. Possible. Well, no.
Starting point is 00:26:03 You're not going to run this from me. No, no, no. I'm just being honest, but I'm just comparing it to the Game of Thrones. I like the first episode. That's all I'll say. I like the first two. Right? I like the first two.
Starting point is 00:26:13 I haven't seen. The third one is, you know, it's just the story. I think, no, I'm not going to spoil anything, but I think Game of Thrones spoiled us with, like, the character building. And now, I understand there's dragons and shit, but some, it just looks so, some of the scenes look really fake now.
Starting point is 00:26:29 Maybe I'm in the minority, maybe I'm tripping, but like the lighting is off. It just doesn't look. Really? No, see. Like Game of Thrones? Citi eyes off? How is it negative?
Starting point is 00:26:37 You're just jaded, dude? Why are you so jaded? Who hurt you? Never mind. You're very, you're very, uh, critique you should be on dried tomatoes is your bottle half empty or half fuller now be honest game of thrones and then night of the seven kingdoms also spoiled us before season three a house of the dragon i feel like they set the bar again super high i don't know it's just maybe it's just me i rewatched
Starting point is 00:27:01 season two before season three started and i feel like that helped me a lot yeah we always just watch like a 10 minute recap before any new season of a show just go on youtube dude they are like he brushed his teeth on this day and because of that he fucked his wife and I'm like dude holy shit. He brushed his teeth so he fucked his wife. I'm telling you they go in depth man if you ever don't know what the hell is going on like me. I didn't do that because I didn't do that before season three.
Starting point is 00:27:30 Well, brush your teeth? Yeah. Ladies and gentlemen, part of the interruption I want to tell you a little bit about factor.

Starting point is 00:30:04 He got my flight? Dude. You're just going for the blackjackie. No, he's not. He's got his watch party there. He's got a couple of meeting and greets. Obviously, a couple. No, okay, just one.
Starting point is 00:30:14 Yeah, they missed for me. Have you been to an event this year? No, man. Which one? Oh, Arvent? Our event? Well, it was here, though. Do you guys not remember me playing the 1V ones?
Starting point is 00:30:22 Do counts. I wasn't there. Of course, I remember. I was more than Seth was there. You actually were. Doesn't matter the reason. Doesn't matter the reason. Yeah, no.
Starting point is 00:30:28 Doesn't matter the reason. Yeah. We were giving birth? We? We? take credit from his. I was giving her... Oh, never mind, never mind.
Starting point is 00:30:36 You got the shot? Push. He gave one of these on the shoulder like, you got it. You got it. You got it. I was the coach. All right, here's the bracket.
Starting point is 00:30:48 Do you guys want to go down the bracket and see who's who? Are we not checking? We could do it, I guess. We just... I mean... Well, hold on real quick. Falcons news. Apparently Neptune is not going to Falcons now. Really?
Starting point is 00:30:59 Can we talk about Neptune? Apparently that fell through. So is A. I don't know who it is So Aluka's on the team The problem is AG is traveling with Norway So I'm not sure if he's even available He's on the fucking
Starting point is 00:31:10 He's on the fuck out He's on the bus In the quiet words of the Virgin Mary He's on the bus I'm just kidding He flew to Jersey for the game He's probably going to Miami for the game That is sorry
Starting point is 00:31:21 It went all the way to the bottom No But yeah apparently Neptune fell through So it's going to be a Luca And I don't know who they're going to pick Between Predding and Kismet In this setting but
Starting point is 00:31:31 Neptune is like, okay, wonder what happened. I wonder if he was just like, no, I'm good, I'm waiting for a better opportunity that the money was in there.
Starting point is 00:31:42 That's the only opportunity probably. I don't understand why people haven't picked. I would deal with that attitude. Well, there's a buyout attached to him too. He's still signed a gentleman mates.
Starting point is 00:31:53 Oh, so he still costs a decent amount. He's not going to be free. Falcons probably the only team that's like probably willing to cough it up. But yeah, I really don't know. Interesting. Because it came out yesterday, which is like, I figured they'd be scrimming by yesterday.
Starting point is 00:32:07 I figured they were like already days into scrimmed. Well, they screamed yesterday. They screamed again. They were supposed to scrimmed Huntsman. Then they screamed Optic instead. Uh-huh. Paul just wait for the optic players to get here. But that must have been either their first day or.
Starting point is 00:32:20 I mean, I'm assuming. AG was in Jersey. So by process of elimination, it has to be Kismet. I'm assuming it was. I have no idea. What if a Luke is just. A dude. I mean, he could.
Starting point is 00:32:32 be good but like this moment. Aluka, first event ever in the pro league, his champs against thieves. That's such a tough. And he just fucking three-hose him. You have to be final, bro, to like actually change a team's whole thing.
Starting point is 00:32:45 You have to be fine. Shout out Mace. We haven't seen it recently. Shouts out Mace. Shouts out Mace. Nice Mace. Parky Lise. Damn.
Starting point is 00:32:54 We've got Heretics round one. You know, Heretics is a weird first round matchup. I will say this year out of all years. This year out of all years, like last year I think would have been a different first round matchup. This year, like, they have not looked very good. They're still weird,
Starting point is 00:33:06 they're always weird because metals, I think it depends on metal. Metals is playing well. You're sketched out. Okay, first of all, can I, can I defend Metals? You can't say that. He's like, he's like a utility player. Sometimes he's going to perform well on the stat line. Yeah, but sometimes he's not. Yeah, but their team lives and dies based on that, though.
Starting point is 00:33:23 I think he's the only undropable on Heretics. Damn, all right, Metals. Come on now. I don't know about that. Hey, you don't know about that. Look at GM Hacks over there He knows about that You know shit now You diamond and shit
Starting point is 00:33:36 Yeah, right He's talking a little different Diamond three Listen you've seen the highlights You've seen the clips You've seen that I'm under the I'm literally him You guys are all lucky
Starting point is 00:33:44 I texted him yesterday Actually we probably would have been Timmy Timis if I would have been born 10 years later And 15 years later Let's state the obvious matchup Mates coy round one Joe
Starting point is 00:33:54 Joe versus old team round one I don't know man I think Kips is going to elevate Is he devoured that? I can't help to think about... He's going to devour. You think he's going to fuck on us? DeVour them.
Starting point is 00:34:05 Holy shit, Joey, dude. I know, I can't help but think about Neptune being on Gentlemates' bench right there. Like, they could have Neptune, Joe Deceives, Sib, and Ghosty, and Neptune's just sitting on the bench. You never know. And that's not a slight test real. It's just, that is a fucking... Hey. I'm happy they're not doing it.
Starting point is 00:34:25 I'm happy they're not doing it. Not all good teams on paper like work, though. Well, if you think about 100 teams, like, you took a... I'll tell you what. They have to fucking hate him. That's the only way they... They have to hate him. Neptune, in order for him to be on that bench, there has to be despised.
Starting point is 00:34:39 Okay, but what does a player that good have to do to piss off teammates at that? Shit on someone's pillow? I don't know. I don't want to say it. Hit up one of their girls on the side? No, he wasn't. I know what you want to say. He wasn't doing that.
Starting point is 00:34:54 Taking pictures of them? He wasn't. He wasn't. He wasn't. He wasn't. He wasn't. He got to sleep. No.
Starting point is 00:34:58 He wasn't. See, we got to stop. I just kept up thinking, the imagination were wild there. People are going to hear this and it's going to really, they're going to put him up. I genuinely don't know. I've heard he was like, I've heard he was like late, like he was like a late person, but there's no way you hate someone just for being a little late. It gets annoying, but not hate.
Starting point is 00:35:19 As long as he's vibe when he gets there? Yeah, I don't know. What, me? No, no. Bro, I got texted, ETA. There was three minutes. I was outside for him walking in. Three minutes after.
Starting point is 00:35:30 I'm like, yo. Here's my leash. I always text page. I'm almost there just so she doesn't pre-pop check me like in the morning. Dude, it was three minutes after and I was walking in. I was literally walking in. Yo, you got us all traumatized. So we're just checking in.
Starting point is 00:35:47 Dude, I've been sleeping on the couch. My fucking smoke detector is too high up. How high are we talking? 30 feet. Jesus. I mean, I don't know about 30 feet, but it's up there. How tall is like this ceiling? Nine feet.
Starting point is 00:36:01 What the fuck? How many of these ceilings? How many of these ceilings is it away from from you? Probably three of these. Shit. In your bedroom. It's like in because it's not, it's like inside of where the chandelier is supposed to be. So that's even cut out higher into the ceiling.
Starting point is 00:36:16 It's real candles, the chandelier. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. Like it's like an art. It's like a, like a arc made of a ceiling. Okay, you see the trope? We don't have a chandelier. We can't even fucking fix the smoke detector.
Starting point is 00:36:27 How are we going to deal with a chandelier? smoke detector's that high it probably takes a big fire to set that off for it to reach it let's not find out yeah is is thought it was carbon monoxide the first night oh my god of course hey listen that is you you have to she was like can you please go check it i'm like it's fucking all the way up in the sky it's 4 a m he badger he starts climbing go ahead yeah wait how did you should you want to check it you to fly up there you should have been like stand right have a Climb on your shoulders and see if I'm like, yeah. She was like this.
Starting point is 00:37:03 Come on. I'll help you. And it's been like four or five days because the electrician canceled yesterday. Oh my God. That's the worst. First world problems because the couch is nice. But it's just, he cries more. He wakes up more.
Starting point is 00:37:16 He wakes up. Nice. My neck. You always get something in your neck. I grew up sleeping on a couch. So I guess I'm used to. That's why I sleep on my side, I think. I mean, the couch is comfy if you like fall asleep.
Starting point is 00:37:28 on it for a night, but sleeping on it consistently for a week, like, my body's starting to hurt. And I'm sleeping like shit. Anyways, that phase G2 matchup is weird. What? You weren't enjoying the conversation? No, I was. But I was, that was a good segue into the final champs discussion. Phase G2?
Starting point is 00:37:47 Phase, obviously. Yeah, I think phases. Out of all matchups, though, that's probably the weirdest one because you're picking somewhere else? I'm not picking G2. Well, no, but G2, if Kremp shows up the way he was online, G2's a weird team. Yeah, no, they're G2's not a bad team. I think they're... They're solid in every game mode.
Starting point is 00:38:04 G2's weird. They're a good search team. Out of all matchups, I think that one has maybe the most upset potential. They're good at search. Fais is bad at search recently. You agree? G2 could win that.
Starting point is 00:38:14 They could win that. Yes. I mean, maybe Corey Gentlemates, but I still think gentlemen mates win that. Even though Abe did have a good major. I don't know. I genuinely can't believe champs was a week away. Dude, me.
Starting point is 00:38:27 This feels like the fastest season of all time, but I feel like I'm saying that every single year at this point. But this year genuinely feels like a different level of fast. Yeah, it's only going to get faster. Watching all year and it's fucking flew by. Yeah. Yeah, this year's been. Do you think it's because like you're actively watching and like, uh,
Starting point is 00:38:42 because you didn't used to watch until you did, or you didn't watch that much until you did the watch God over. I would watch like, I wouldn't watch finals and stuff. Yeah. But like, other than that, I wouldn't watch anything. Really? See, I've always watched like, yeah. Like, that was pretty much it though.
Starting point is 00:38:54 I've always watched like every match. Even when I was playing, I'd be like, I'd watch matches after like, we'd lose, I'd still watch. No, I'd just sit there and watch and enjoy it. Chill. Be pissed. Here's another anecdotal factoid. I don't know spawns.
Starting point is 00:39:11 And I'm fucking wrecking in fucking response. There you go. You better at respawn than search, you think? I texted Hector yesterday. I asked Hector a question. He replied with a picture of the diamond logo. He said, I'm busy. But it was on flames.
Starting point is 00:39:25 In flames. Diamond 3. In flames. Oh, color flames. I'll show you. Remember when people used to say, give me your flame. Not red or purple. Give me that fucking...
Starting point is 00:39:34 Give me your fucking flame. Oh, my favorite... It's like, dude, no, give it back. My favorite segment, our favorite segment of the podcast. A Huntsman update. Zinnie, what say you? Huntsman update?
Starting point is 00:39:47 Break it down, man. I mean, well, you kind of leaked it in your vlog. We were... Is that with my... Tomorrow's vlog? No, the Trake stuff. Oh, oh. We were interested in Trakes if there was a world
Starting point is 00:39:58 where he wasn't on Bush. Wait, did that make the vlog? Yeah. Diesel. And then, so they were like, wait, how was that going to happen? And I was like, uh, uh, we didn't even speak to Trakes. We were just seeing, if Bush were to make a move, we would have picked up Trakes or tried to. And he's not lying.
Starting point is 00:40:13 I literally was the one that was like, yo, get Tricks now. He said, we can't. The roster's locked. I wanted to get Trakes back then. Sorry, I'm on my phone. The electrician is there right now. You want to take off? No, no, no, no, no.
Starting point is 00:40:23 I'm fine. I'm just trying to. Wait, what just happened? The electrician's there right now. Thank God. Oh, there you go. He's not going to have a ladder for it. He's just going to look up and be like,
Starting point is 00:40:33 what fucking supposed to get to that? You didn't tell me. What the hell is this? Well, I hope you told him. Did you tell the electricity before he came? Hey, though, I don't handle that. That's right. I would hope she told him.
Starting point is 00:40:44 You think I'm making the calls in the household? This smoke detector is 30 feet in the air. I say, babe, I'm playing league. Fucking handle it. Leave video games. Fucking handle it. Sorry, my husband's playing. No, no, I can't pause right now, darling.
Starting point is 00:40:56 I'm in the fucking jungle. Pause is multiplayer, babe. but we get banned for 15 so I Fuck He shouldn't be in challenge I haven't actually played league in a while Should I be in challenges? No,
Starting point is 00:41:06 for sure. Like watching him I can't believe Miami dropped him but then Honestly the husband situation was like the biggest shit show I've been a part of yet because we were picking up Aluka Then with 10
Starting point is 00:41:17 exactly 10 minutes before the roster lock where we had to have had our teams had to have had our team submitted to auto qualify for champs Aluka texts me and says hey, I got a pro offer. I can't play with you guys. So with 10 minutes, we were forced to scramble.
Starting point is 00:41:33 I feel like that always happens to somebody. Like, somebody always is just, who do we get? There's 10 minutes. So we picked up Yuli, who was like our number two in the talks. Like, it was between, once Trakes wasn't a possibility. We spoke about Aluka. We spoke about Yule. Yulee was our number two.
Starting point is 00:41:51 And honestly, so far, they've been playing really good. Like their comm sound, the best I've heard them sound, in months, which is a good thing. I think I don't think the Johnny Renegade duo really, I think Johnny was kind of killing Renegade's confidence, to be honest. Johnny expects a certain level of,
Starting point is 00:42:10 like Johnny doesn't realize that even though Renegade is as good as he is, he's still learning, and I think he was nitpicking him a bit too much, and I think that is literally disastrous to a player like John. And I just think the team room needed a vibe switch. Things were getting pretty hectic,
Starting point is 00:42:24 and people weren't really, enjoying like how the team would sound in like those clutch end of the map moments. So Johnny's now on P7 and so far things have looked pretty, so far things have looked pretty good. Oh, of course. Hands up. Did you try to say, you know what, let's stick with this team,
Starting point is 00:42:40 but I'm gonna tell fucking Johnny, hey, chill with all the microwave usage. You think we didn't try that? I'm surprised Renegade didn't snap. You think we didn't. Yeah, truthfully. I'm surprised John didn't just say like, dude shut the fuck up. You think I didn't talk to Johnny multiple times about it.
Starting point is 00:42:54 No, just making sure. I tried. Listen, I got to ask these questions. I try because, I mean, just to lay it all out there, before, when the Switty change went down, we were also considering making a change for Johnny. And then that didn't come to fruition. So we spoke again about like the way he is in scrimms and just the way he speaks to certain people about certain things. And he understood. I don't think it comes from a bad place, but it's still, it hurts the team vibe.
Starting point is 00:43:24 So hopefully Champs goes well. The one thing about Yuli is he's a really good search player, and we need some damn, some fucking clutch factor in search, because I think that's what wins you stuff at this point in the game. Yeah, I mean, search wins chips. Huntsman have champs. Our pool is Omit EU, which is really hard because Ethan's team is really good. Ethan.
Starting point is 00:43:46 Ethan's like first and second. Also torn, which TK and Mince's team made his play second, and then I think a Latin America team as the force. Do you have to get top two? Yeah, top two. Yeah, that's going to be hard then. CT gaming? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:44:00 From Mexico City? I don't know. I don't know. It's one of the Latam teams. Really hard. But yeah, and then EWC, top three from Challenger champs, auto-qualify. Then there's a land qualifier in Paris for the final spot. But we just found out EWC doesn't cover that.
Starting point is 00:44:16 So like players and teams. Yes. So either orgs have to cover you or the players themselves had to bet on themselves and go there. But I was thinking, I was like, I'm not sure. if they're going to get 32 teams because if you're the 25th best team why would you fund yourself to that event or why would an org send you like that event's probably only going to be like the actual teams that can qualify so yeah it's pretty uh shit show actually it is a shit show speaking oh give me one you're all right man you're going shit show in his house you give me one
Starting point is 00:44:47 obviously when you come back please man but yeah hopefully the huntsman uh hopefully the huntsman can make it happen at champs i would i would love nothing more There's some managerial stuff that we need to discuss, and we'll discuss it here publicly. Go ahead. Hey, the huntsman have a coach, right, Mr. Major Maniac? Yeah. Thank you. Hey, we're going to take some benefits away, okay?
Starting point is 00:45:18 There's no more food stipends, okay? There's not going to be any more. What else? We need wins, okay? They're challenges. They want the special treatment. They need to fucking bring some to the table before they get all the luxuries that Optic
Starting point is 00:45:33 and the Huntsmen are here to provide. Top 12. You know what I'm saying? Oh, yeah. Top 12 tick me off. Fuck out of you. It's not only that. Listen, John has fucking shown up for Optic before.
Starting point is 00:45:45 He'll always have our thanks for it and that's why we're going to be there. But everybody else that's in that fucking room, I don't know them nothing. Period. They need to earn their Pappaslav. That is fact. I had to talk with them yesterday.
Starting point is 00:45:55 I had to talk with them yesterday. That's facts. So. Hopefully it goes well. That's all. Yeah, no, listen, I'm obviously rooting for them. I will say. Our logos on that.
Starting point is 00:46:04 They are working very hard. I see. So am I. They're doing, no, I'm just saying like this. I'm damning three iteration of this team. I'm just seeing a lot more than I have previous, and I'm happy about it. I think they are doing all the right things. Granted, Champs is coming up soon, but they're doing three sets every single day.
Starting point is 00:46:22 Yeah. They're texting at 1 a.m. about things they need to do better. they're doing VOD every day at 12. I can just tell this team is enjoying working together, and I'm hoping it works out. So do I, because the faith of the future of the Huntsman program lies on their performance at champs. Lies on you.
Starting point is 00:46:39 And you. Hopefully it goes well. That's the best we can do. Hopefully it goes well. I mean, a lot of people look at me and fucking, it's like people forgot how teams actually work in Call of Duty. I understand that I'm the one who's speaking about the Huntsman a lot, but there are certain things in the team room,
Starting point is 00:46:55 that no matter what I say or what I want, there are certain things you can't fix. And I think people are just because it fits their narrative, they kind of skip over all the thoughts that go behind that. I'll tell you one thing. If we don't do well at champs, you might have to play for the first couple of games next year to continue with this project. Formals down. You can get formal.
Starting point is 00:47:18 I'm not down to put with your fucking. Formal Renegade. How boring that would be for him? The duo was back. Do you know how boring that would be for him? He'd be like him playing a 1 v1 against me. He'd have no, he couldn't even perform. He'd be born and trying himself.
Starting point is 00:47:30 A cheetah does not concern his speed with goats or whatever. He's going to play for Huntsman next year if things don't go well. It's going to be him, renegade. You're coming in too. Yeah, oh yeah. We're going full content. Oh, yeah. We're going full content.
Starting point is 00:47:43 Oh, yeah. Me, you, sweetie. Oh, yeah. It's a good team. That's a good team. We might run worlds. Yeah. I mean, it'd be fun as fuck to watch.
Starting point is 00:47:51 Watch out, youngsters. come the old timers. Dude, how bad do you think, do you think that you guys would kill their confidence and therefore some of the careers because you guys are like older and shitting on them? Tell you one thing, they ain't breaking this arm. I'd probably marry my own teammates first. Like I would just accidentally be like, bro, sure, so bad. Like in the middle of the game?
Starting point is 00:48:10 And then she'd be like, oh, no. You like can't lock. I thought I was watch part in some shit. You like can't lock in anymore? Yeah. I'm like, oh, shit. Yeah, I couldn't either. What did I just see?
Starting point is 00:48:21 On the other side, on the other side. All right. Let's move on. for the update on the Huntsman. We obviously care about any projects that we're involved in, so we are going to be overly critical of ourselves. Formal's all-time competitive cot map tier list.
Starting point is 00:48:36 We don't have to go through it because I know that is Tujan, Tunisia in it? No, no, no, I want to see it. You can take a glintz. Yeah, let me take a little glance. If Tudgeon and Tunisia's not in there, it's already. Fucking Halo boy.
Starting point is 00:48:45 Let me see your cod, Miss Hadoombe. The cons are competed in. Raid, standoff, Arsenal, Hossie, Warhawk, come back. Okay, not a bad star. Warhawk was fucking dope as fuck. Fringe freak, retreat.
Starting point is 00:49:00 What is that? Picnic? Precinct. Precinct. Broback. Yeah, I mean, no, I'm not going to look at the rats. First two are fine. Thanks.
Starting point is 00:49:10 Retrieve. I don't remember precinct. Some of them are hard to read. Some of them are hard to read. Ghost to Cold War. Can you make Precinct better? I don't remember. It only did games you play.
Starting point is 00:49:20 I don't remember Precinct. That makes sense. Precinct was the one with the ball that spawn in the white room and that's what we won champs on. Where is London Docks? Oh, you got that in C? I'd have that in B. I think that was a good map. He did World War II.
Starting point is 00:49:37 Harkloff Peak. Arclough was awful. Stronghold and D? I didn't like it either. Do you know what happened on that map? What, London Docks? No, stronghold. We don't talk about that.
Starting point is 00:49:49 Oh. When Attach ran through the artillery? No, that's London Docks. That's London Docks. He's talking about Stronghold. I know. I was playing the one of the other. Oh, nice. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:49:58 All right, thank you, Matt. Terris, dude. That map was trippy. That was a solid list. Black Ops one movement is crazy. Wait, what the fuck? Did they release? Oh, here we go.
Starting point is 00:50:08 Not yet. Time to get C-Sick. It's sometime this month, they said. We get C-Sick, well? Yeah, some motherfuckers about to be fucking. People are going to be cheating in this? Like, how does that work? Yes.
Starting point is 00:50:16 Yes. Really? It's going to be so bad. Oh, then why the fuck we don't play it? Well, I'm going to play like search channels, but, yeah, Pub's is going to be tough because it's a, it's just a console port. It's not remastered. It's basically just the game that's now playable on PlayStation 5.
Starting point is 00:50:30 I mean, bro, the movement looks nothing like Beal. What are you, man? Like, I swear you were not this. It's got to be FOV. I didn't play this card at all. This isn't it. This isn't the port. This is like a mod where you can up your FOV and stuff.
Starting point is 00:50:42 That makes sense, because I was going to say he's moving way too fast. And I'm not tipping it. I'm just a keyboard and mouse. I'm actually more excited for Black Ops 1 than Black Ops 2. Like I feel like I The one with the Famos Is he the Energizer buddy? And the Gileo
Starting point is 00:50:56 With the TILX? Yeah He's on mouse and key though Got a little crick What was that crate? Supply drop You didn't play this game You wouldn't know about that
Starting point is 00:51:08 Would you Halo boy? I was playing Hale Reachervens Events You guys had the bigger crown And shit too I remember seeing blackups one on the side Is that the one with the balloon Outfront?
Starting point is 00:51:19 No No that's hit I was the 5 of them That was insane. Security camera footage captures the moment the roof collapsed inside a BJ's wholesale store in Jersey. I love BJs. The store.
Starting point is 00:51:31 Of course. And suction. And suction. And suction. Who doesn't? What the fuck? Look at Eustace down there. What's up with this guy?
Starting point is 00:51:43 I don't know. Why is he holding onto his fucking cart, run, man? Someone back there in like the seminary? Well, Lestl we're looking right now. Yo, how'd you know it was about to go to the fucking bakery, bro? Oh, that is insane. So what caused that? Snow.
Starting point is 00:52:00 Was it snow? I don't know. It looked like something. I mean, poor design. Man, the top came off on that, BJ did it? Ocean Township. Poor architecture there. At BJ's.
Starting point is 00:52:11 But that's insane. I mean, can you imagine if that happened to you? It is. One minute you got Cosmic Brownies. Next minute you got the roof. And it's not on fire. It's literally falling on you. Oh, hell.
Starting point is 00:52:21 No, not this again. Gabe Newell is building an 815, million dollar ship to explore the ocean's biggest mysteries. Yeah. $815 million.
Starting point is 00:52:30 They break you billions a year, dude. Billions. That's awesome. They're like, hey, let's take one of these billions. It's so much money. You're like, dude, that just take one of these bills
Starting point is 00:52:36 and fucking go explore the bottom of the ocean. Why? Fuck, who cares? Let's send robots or whatever the fuck. Wonder what they find. Giant squid. Maybe the Megalodon. Maybe Godzilla.
Starting point is 00:52:49 Maybe the Krak and. Pathulu? Fuck, they might find Poseidon. Little Mermaid comes out, start singing. They're going to find a whole lot of anglerfish, tell you that. And those things are scary looking. Yeah, shut up.
Starting point is 00:53:06 Shut up Gabe Newell, man. You've seen it. Are you seen his yacht? Like, they're literally like building games and all or like running valve while at the same time exploring the ocean. Oh, VALD. I didn't even put that together. Oh, shit.
Starting point is 00:53:19 That level of Ritchick is unfathomable. No, not for me. I fathom. You fathom that? I fathom before I go to bed. You fathom? 815 mili ship. No,
Starting point is 00:53:28 I found him doing like fucking crazy shit. What are you going to do at that point though? You do that. You go explore. Yeah, but you get sick of that. No, you go explore the world, man. You get sick of it.
Starting point is 00:53:38 You wouldn't go out to the moon if you had billions? Fuck no. See? I would. What am I, an asteroid? What am I kneel? Dude, you wouldn't want to Yo,
Starting point is 00:53:48 I'm going to show you a, I've been capturing UFOs. Okay. Oh, my God. You said diamond three and he's just Here we fucking go. What the fuck does me? being great at Call of Duty have to do with UFOs above the sky?
Starting point is 00:53:59 You're just confidence. I mean, you said you've been capturing UFOs. Bro, I'm gonna, okay, I have video evidence, literal. And plural. U.S. I'm just picturing you high as fuck in your backyard. It was 528 in the morning. It wasn't high as fuck.
Starting point is 00:54:12 I just got up to take the dogs out. You still woke up a little fuzzy for sure. You were definitely not waking up 100% sober. And then my phone was also high. I'd be waking up like, my phone was also stoned. and it saw what I saw. Dude, even on five, my brain's destroyed when I wake up. So you're saying that on five milligrams,
Starting point is 00:54:32 your call-duty performance wouldn't be what it would be as a sober man? No. Imagine that ten-ext. I imagine that. No, I can't. I'd be green out. I'd be yacking all over the place.
Starting point is 00:54:44 I'm sorry, what's that next bullet? Yo, Matt, at the end of this video, you put my video, okay? 55,000 Steam players refunded the game. No, no, no, the one after that. The one after that. do the man arrested. Man arrested after living in a forest for eight years amongst half a ton of trash? One on there.
Starting point is 00:55:02 Wait, what's the French? They're like, hey, I know you're fucking living well amongst all this trash and you don't give a fuck, but guess what? We're taking you to jail. I call that freedom. I call that use of free will. Living illegally on national forest grounds for almost a day. First of all, what is he taking?
Starting point is 00:55:20 What is he taking from the national forest grounds? What? What is he taking? The garbage? The grounds. Dude, I watched the funniest video yesterday, dude. Hit us. It was this like isolated little town in West Virginia
Starting point is 00:55:37 through this one-way tunnel that's a mile long. And they went to the holler. And there was like 10 people from West Virginia that let you got to watch this fucking video later. If we don't watch a clip now. They went to where? Like a holler in West Virginia. Were they like just isolated? Contruma?
Starting point is 00:55:55 Why was it funny? Dude, just the shit they were saying, I can't do it justice. Was one of those dudes barking? No, but they're flying the Confederate flag and they're like, we're not racist though. We just like to fly flags. Yeah, it's absurd.
Starting point is 00:56:09 That's because we're going to what to start with. Then this guy's, I can't do it justice. If anybody's interested, just look up. Matt, can you try to find the video so people can watch it and see what I'm talking about? Yeah, because that story sucked. Yeah, I know. The story sucked.
Starting point is 00:56:22 It's right there. No. Inside West Virginia is most of the high. I don't want to go inside of that. You're a sick fucking watching. No, that's it. What do you guys think about MW4 being playable at Fanatics Fest and NYC during champs? Modern Warfare 4 will play about Fanatics Fest?
Starting point is 00:56:35 Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, the exact same time? In New York City during champs, you can play MW4. Yo, I'm going to be honest with you. I obviously know that this happened because it's happened the same, but I thought a new Modern Warfare 4 was coming out. Like a new, like a remastered edition of Modern Warfare remastered. Oh, remastered. Remastered remastered.
Starting point is 00:56:53 Yeah, but this is bullshit. Obviously, like you guys know, like it is, it is, I don't know how more obvious it needs to back in me. Okay. You mean to tell me that they don't know what's going on? Like, you don't mean to tell me that they don't talk to each other and know that the biggest event. Yeah, what is this? I just don't understand, man, because I'll tell you. I think I get it.
Starting point is 00:57:14 I'll tell you what. On Thursday? You get it? I'll tell you what. I'll tell you what. I'm Thursday and Friday. What do you mean? I feel like they think that the people at champs because they're hardcore cod fans are already going to buy it.
Starting point is 00:57:24 so they don't see the need to have it playable early. But that's just bad setting. Same weekend? Well, they can't control what Fanatics Fest is. I think this is like some FIFA. Is it confirmed? What is Fanx? Playing at champs?
Starting point is 00:57:36 The cards. I'd be sure. Is it cards? Yeah, they probably won't want to be. It's Fanatics. They have cards. They do the trading cards. They also do all of the sports athletes.
Starting point is 00:57:44 They should just have it at both. I don't even mind it being there. It just, you should also have it at. Is it not playing a team that? Two setups. If you really want it to be exclusive, two setups lines out the door. door fucking one time, buddy.
Starting point is 00:57:56 It's the Compa con of sports. Yeah, it's a Comic Con of sports. But either way, like, I guess they're trying to bring like a new market or like just bring it to people. On the same weekend? That makes no sense on the same weekend. I think they should have it at both. I'm okay with it being there, but it should also be a champs. It's not like always a thing? You play the next guy? Yeah, again, because
Starting point is 00:58:12 no, but I can get, I'll tell you one thing. I'll tell you one thing that we're going to see. On Thursday and Friday, I'm going to be paying attention to what we're talking, what we're promoting on the league. I'm going to be paying, because if they're promoting Fanatics Fest, during our watch parties or during the broadcast
Starting point is 00:58:27 that's a big issue with me and everybody else that has a team and should have an issue with this is fucking bullshit Oh wait Oh I mean it's a bunch of celebrities Oh I can't even blame them They're gonna get pictures of LeBron playing MW4
Starting point is 00:58:42 Yeah that makes sense Okay the point is that this could be done Don't you want to see Don't you want to have like a live reaction to the Should be at both Sure These guys are all going I'm gonna go to this
Starting point is 00:58:52 I want to drop shot LeBron What fuck is this? My God, look at this lineup Look at this lineup You imagine Tom Brady If I drop shot at him What is Derek?
Starting point is 00:59:01 What is this lineup? They got Jeter in the fifth row Oh, I know Wemby's getting drop shot Adam Silver Jumpshotted That's a That's a star
Starting point is 00:59:11 I mean yeah That makes sense Okay Again It's still going Look at the fucking scroll wheel Chat Ocho Sinko Sinko that's the man right there
Starting point is 00:59:18 Listen again If you're gonna have it If you're just random All Pam on the list somewhere Listen, if you're going to have it, have it at both or just having different weekends. Like, it makes no sense that they would have on the same weekend as this. Yeah, no. Because people who are, like, people are going to want to see, like, the first gameplay of this thing.
Starting point is 00:59:36 Content creators are going to make content about this. You know what I did like? They moved the champs grand finals match three hours back because initially it was during the World Cup Finals. So now we can go to the sports book, watch the World Cup final, watch party champs. come to the watch party hammered champs. Wait, so what time is it on? What time is it out now? I think it's at 3 p.m. Pacific now.
Starting point is 00:59:59 Champs Grand Final. It was 12 and now it's three. So they pushed it back three hours. Who's going to be in the final now that we're eliminated? I think it's going to be France. And I don't even know the other side of the bracket. Is Argentina on the other side of the right? Wait, who does France play next?
Starting point is 01:00:16 Dude, Jude has a... No, is it built? No, Spain plays Belgium. Yep. France plays... No, Spain. Belgium. No, no, sorry. Spain plays Belgium because Belgium beat USA. England plays Norway. Yeah. Is it Argentina France next? No, right?
Starting point is 01:00:29 Colombia's still in it. Remember that? Or Morocco? Is it, it might be Argentina and Morocco. Argentina plays Egypt today. France versus Morocco. Got it. They played today. And then Spain versus Belgium Friday. And then the one we don't know is Colombia versus Switzerland. Imagine England versus France. Is that all right now? It's not right now. Egypt versus Live. God, we're missing the goat? messy? Literally live. That's right.
