Luke Wilson coming up here in a moment on Chiefs Bills, Commander's Eagles, Eagles his take on Pete Carroll being hired as the head coach for the Raiders and Cowboys still looking for a coach Saints still looking for a coach

So we'll catch up with Luke here in a few moments and Al's brother coming in hot with which game We're gonna take who we're gonna pick got to get the totals if you're looking for an updated standings Got to get the totals if you're looking for an updated standings For this playoff pursuit. It is T. Mohan Wilson with six points team hazen bro with five points It's six five as it currently stands. So we've got ourselves a that is so much better than one one Like last week six five kind of sounds real and like we've actually thought something. It's a dog fight I love it dog fight's a dog fight. Six-five sounds a lot more professional than one-to-one. Like you guys know what the hell you're doing.

Like last week, I could sense the embarrassment in all four of you. I just sat there and watched and like all four of you were, it was different your approach but there was an apology from all four of you. Oh, actually, three of you apologized. Three of you apologized. Dougie and Hayes and Al's brother came up with this format. You lose everything. The other team gets the point.

That's what keeps the juices flowing. I hear you, but this is what it is now. I get it. I get it. That's the way it's going to go. Actually, three guys apologize, and one guy has the arrogance to think, believe that he knows everything about football and it's not, it's the one guy who's on a cruise. Al's brother, yeah, exactly.

He will never apologize for anything. Never for anything. He just doubles down. Never. Yeah, it's always someone, it's the team's fault, the coaches are more on the rest, it's rigged, right? There's always something. And you've noticed this week a lot of people doing digging on the the Chiefs and the

penalty calls and I saw was it ESPN they came up with this graphic I believe that when you look at the penalties called for and against the Chiefs since the year 2021 all right 36 penalties called on the Chiefs in the playoffs, 66 against their opponents. Discipline or scam? Well, I think it's somewhere in the middle. I do think discipline factors in. I think they're really well coached.

I think they're a championship caliber team. And whoever's gonna win the Super Bowl is gonna have less penalties than everyone else they play against. Like, undoubtedly that's going to happen. But I also think that there's a flag or two, Ty goes to Mahomes, you know, far too often. Those Mahomes referee memes, they go off the charts. I don't know how people are making those, but like they make you laugh, but they're

rampant during a game. They are. It's gotten to the point. It drives people nuts even if they're not involved, not a fan. They're like this is insane. Well and in Buffalo they're bracing for it. I saw someone tweet out, you know, a hypothetical tweet like, you know, Jim Nance calls out on it's picked off and the Bills are going back to the Super Bowl and then Tony Romo

right underneath is like hold on Jim there's a late flag and It was like one of those tweets where you read it and you can picture that coming Yeah, you can picture it coming where my homes Gets picked off and then there's a flag on holding across the field that had nothing to do with anything and you're like really Gets the ball back marches down a, scores a winning touchdown, and see you later. Where are you guys at with the, it's rigged for Kansas City? It's not rigged. It's definitely not rigged.

Pro sports can never be rigged. It's not rigged. I understand that. I'm just saying like, every time Kansas City plays, it's trending and there's memes of the homes kissing refs and hugging them and talking well I shouldn't say it can't be rigged because there was a ref my buddy the NFL Yeah, Donahue like he got busted for trying to fix games. Yeah, he admitted right Yeah, listen, there was a Raptor that is doing prison time because yeah

So I actually will take that I've resented that comment You I'll take that comment back Pro sports are not supposed to be fixed. In reality, Hayes, whatever that guy was doing, he wasn't affecting the grand total of the score, was he? He was doing individual. Look at this. Oh, it's Wilson. I didn't expect him to cut you off.

His partner he cuts off. Totally fine with it. Bringing in a professional at Super Bowl season. I want to hear the best in the business, so bring him in. All right. I'm going to go ahead and bring in the best in the business. I'm going to go ahead and bring in the best in the business. I'm going to go ahead and bring in the best in the business. I'm going to go ahead and bring in the best in the business. I'm going to go ahead and bring in the best in a professional at Superbowl season and I want to hear the best in the business so bring him in.

Alright here he is one half of team Owen Wilson currently leading 6-5 over Hazenbro, here's Luke Wilson. Luke how you feeling about your boy Pete Carroll getting back into the game getting hired down with the Raiders? I mean I'm jazzed, I'm jazzed. Makes you want to get in the gym. So I'll speed a text message. Say, listen, you need a third string tight end locker room guy. Come get your boy.

Let's go. I love that idea, man. I love that. I don't know if I could still, at my age right now, take a lot more. But seriously, I am excited for Pete. I think it'll be a fun kind of venture for them. And I think my most exciting part is I would consider Pete

like a very good head coach. Obviously I'm biased. Him and Harbaugh have a poor relationship. And then also, so he's in the same division. You got Andy Reid in there. You know, those are some big name. You got Payton, right? Those are some big name guys So it's kind of a fun division down from a coaching perspective. I think that's probably why he got the job I mean, he's he won a Super Bowl. He's been a winner and all that

He's not a young guy, but I would I would guess this is Brady, you know telling Davis Hey, you got Reid Payton Harbaugh. You can't bring in some kid like you can't bring in some guy that doesn't have any like any way of navigating through the AFC West. I think it's a it's he's got the worst team. He's got no quarterback. He's I think he's going to have a tough year coming up. But here's the thing, if you're the Raiders, if you're Raider fans,

you look at it and say, well well Peyton turned it around in two years made the playoffs Harbaugh made the playoffs his first year like I don't think Pete Carroll's got like three years to turn the ship around Luke I think he's got to do it pretty quickly it's all in drafting of the quarterback if they screw up the quarterback what is he how old is Pete 73 73 years old he doesn't exactly have five-year time period here to wait for a quarterback to develop Yeah, I agree guys you said it where he's got to come in there and obviously doesn't have to win the division next year But I think it'd be a very good look if he could make a couple splashes, you know

Could the Raiders upset one of those teams or get a split with two of the four teams in their division, win some games, so getting that like, let's call it six to eight win range. If they can somehow, you know, which is not gonna be easy for that roster. But Pete's known to have a couple, you know, tricks up his sleeve, get the boys to roll in,

and then all of a sudden things can go from there. Well, in terms of coaching vacancies, before we get to these two games this weekend, sleeve get the boys to roll in and then all of a sudden things can go from there. Well in terms of coaching vacancies before we get to these two games this weekend what do you think the Cowboys are doing considering everyone else has been hired for the most part and they still need a coach. I was surprised and I took Brian Schottenheimer I I believe, is the front runner. Yep. That shocked me. And I gotta be careful what I say here. I was in Seattle with Brian as our OC in the 2020 year.

I think 2019 and 2020, excuse me. And I like, you know, shoddy, but it's been weird because generally, head coaches coaches when you get a job as a head coach you've done like really well as an OC or DC which Shadi has simply not now obviously as his dad and that sort of thing but it's like I don't know you know in Seattle we were okay we weren't like an elite you know top two offense in the NFL. And then since then, it's not like he's really made

a ton of splashes in the league. So that one kind of shocked me. I really don't understand it. Yeah, I think, you know, as much as you want to say that's nuts, et cetera, et cetera, I think the whole like Jerry wants somebody he can kind of control and not necessarily a big personality is definitely what's going on there in Dallas. No question.

No. Or, conversely, guys that actually have a presence realize they can't have it with Jerry Jones. So, they take themselves out of the running. Anyone with any cache, they're like, I'm not going to work for this guy, I can't handle him. You can't keep him in line, it's not gonna happen. So in terms of what we're looking at this weekend, prior to having you on here,

we're talking about the discussion that everyone's having in Buffalo, and that is the refereeing Patrick Mahomes, Kansas City. Where do you stand on this? You know, you played against Brady at his height, you played against Manning at their heights. Like when you get these all time great quarterbacks, do you kind of have an understanding

that time might go to the quarterback in the eye of the officials? And you kind of got to, do you prepare for that? Do you try to run from that? Like what's it like to build up going into a game like this Sunday? Like what's what's it like to build up going into a game like this Sunday? Yeah, to be completely honest

I think if you're the Bills and you're on that defense you've you've watched film You talk about fundamentals talk about a avoid his head, but in the same breath You got to get after him like it's funny because I look at this matchup and I say to myself, I got a feeling me and parts here about to have to pick this thing. And I say to myself, you know, we've talked all year, Josh Allen, Superman, Josh Allen, Superman. Well, the homes also has that ability. He obviously hasn't done it a ton this year. They haven't, they haven't really needed to games.

He's played in, you know, they've managed to win 15 of them that he's played in and lost one to Josh. And again, it's kind of like, if you want to win in this game, I still think that you've got to like try and punish Patty Malhomes. And if that comes with a 15-yard penalty, so be it it you can't lay off or lay off again clean I'm not talking about anything dirty obviously yeah but you can't lay off hey my homes get cooking you simply can't do it because that's a recipe for disaster the my parts the house brother house brothers great to see you again in the continental you know portion of the country even cruising around the

world and it's it's great to see you as always and uh... these guys like always try to chip away at me earlier what gave me a pair of career to pick and i i wasn't gonna reveal it because we are in this uh... this luxury based on how well let's hear that brother who are you guys going to take what is the game well i i i don't think that it really is that difficult of a decision to be quite honest with you because there's one team in one team only that's destined for success this year

and it is the buffalo bills so how do you be an eye are rolling with the bills and bills mafia yes we are against the kansas city yes we are i really don't think it's going to be you know that that difficult for them to win this game it's a short line one and a half basically a pick them so it's pretty much who's going to win or lose and I think this is the year Josh Allen Gets it done the Bills had the better offensive line

They got a better run game and honestly guys you can you could say otherwise I think they got the better quarterback right now the way that Josh Allen has been playing he's been an MVP level all Season long I think it continues this week against the Chiefs Like before they just made a fool of themselves, they didn't learn their lesson. You guys didn't learn your lesson. All year, anyone that went against the Chiefs got screwed, and I hope you do too on Sunday. Partzy, what are your thoughts? Well, I got a question.

This is for Hayes and Alsbrother here. You know, one of the things that's weird, and you wanna talk about just amateurs, and you can see, Bart, see how these guys have clearly never won a regular season. Because you know that I'm not gonna pick the Bills. You know that. So why wouldn't you, if you were gonna take the Bills, this goes back to last week,

I would've taken the Ravens 10 times out of 10. Why, if you guys had two brain cells between both of ya, you would have given us that game and you still would have been on the Bills. Now you get to pick the other one. Well, no. Last week would have been the same thing. You wouldn't be trailing.

Cause we have the stones to do it. So explain to me. Right, Ellsbrother? We have the stones to do it. And the points, it's a different structure here. We can't allow you to backdoor points in our direction. We gotta go out and get them. We gotta chase points.

And that's what we've done here else brother we had the stones to do it last week we picked correctly and we have the stones to do it this week we're on the Bills man we I said it last week I thought whoever won the Bills Ravens game was gonna go to the Super Bowl I have no reason to change that I know the Chiefs are great I know Mahomes is great but I agree with your assessment of the way Allen's playing I love the way he's controlling the ball right now i think they win at the offensive line i think they win in the run game i can't wait for this game

i love it we're getting points at a minimum and we'll get points here even though it's one and a half we're getting points on that i'm not talking smack about the pit boys i don't understand why you wouldn't let me pick this game i hear you because i would have went with the Chiefs and you'd have the bills either way Yeah, now we're gonna you gave us the layup of the year. The other game is the layup of the year Oh, you think so? Differ I can't wait to hear what you guys go ahead This is you're dumb if you don't know this is the layup of the year go ahead

Go ahead the line is six and a happy goes by six and a half eric a complete all day all day i mean i'm with a infertile high parties over commander's parties over uh... all my goodness you guys are really take a look at the report of that house yet so now we're taking feeling let me explain because i know you're gonna come out here and be like Jaden Daniels Jaden Daniels

And I tip my cap because the kids been awesome He's gonna be the face of this league and I think he's a stud but let's take an honest assessment of this playoff run Let's start with game one. They had against the Bucks pretty evenly matched team I would say two lower tier playoff level teams. What happens in that game? The bucks go, they're in control. They fumble a snap little operation issue. Take advantage of it. The commanders, the bucks then get the ball back, March right down the field in

the center snaps the ball early ends up being a third down sack because no one's are expecting the ball to be snapped. We give the ball, we kick a field goal, we give the ball back, we lose on the last second touchdown. Okay. You beat the box. The lions came out here and puke all over themselves. Five turnovers, an absolute abomination. Defense is atrocious. It was a Peewee level defense with the injuries. You're now going up against our guy Vic Fangio

You're now going up against Jalen Carter and you're now going up against who I would say is the playoff MVP This far and say Kwan Barkley. Oh not to mention The best offensive line left in the playoffs right now in the Philadelphia Eagles So if you don't think that say want to go for a lease or bought fifty and you didn't change or thirty on the steepest you're out of your mind you're out of your mind okay he did it six weeks ago

literally six weeks ago you went and put up thirty three and say that he's going to do it and i think it was a canny dickie you forget these things out brother can you take a hot for getting stop it stop it man listen man dan quinn he's gonna have a toke on backwards and he's gonna be this is why we didn't want to touch this game man

because we knew what you guys were gonna do we knew you'd fall into the trap we want we were looking at kind of the commanders right house brother and we're like we were building commanders that's what we wanted building commanders and we got it and we're like these guys are going to jump on the Eagles and yes Barkley concerns us and commanders run defense is not spectacular but I think Dan Quinn Jaden Daniels and Jalen Hurts he's gonna get horny at some point try to throw balls deep and I guarantee you they get so you're telling me not one part of you both of you think the party's over for

the commanders we had a little back-and-forth i'm a little bit concerned a little bit about that he is that means that you know the party's over for the commanders listen you can see it's i understand it rookies in the class eventually do hit hit somewhat of a wall i mean it's not it's definitely well documented but i don't know man this guy's been so good, Al's brother. Like, Jay Daniels has been so good, and he's going to

keep running that same offense. Yeah. And you look at the two games that... And look, these two teams have played each other twice this year already. So there is a sample size there. Love it. There's going to be some gamesmanship. You look at Jay Daniels in those two performances. The first one, he had a lingering injury in filly ended up winning that game in washington didn't do a whole lot but then the second time around the second time that he saw vick fangio's defense in in that in action

when they were rolling i might add that put up five touchdowns 280 yards in the on the air another 80 yards on the ground he absolutely torched that philly defense not talk about can he pickett the offense he attacked and went after Vicky Van Geo's defense that was rolling I think he continues to do it again and here's what I believe is actually gonna be the big key I think everyone's looking at the commander's run defense and saying yeah it's not too good they rank 28th in the NFL and yards given up per carry

I think they're gonna absolutely sell out to stop the run and make sure that Saquon Barkley doesn't put up a buck fifty and put the ball in the hands of Jalen Hurts. I don't know how healthy that guy is. You look at him in the second half of last week, he could barely walk, let alone play the game of football. And if you put the ball in his hands and he has to make a play late in the game, I don't think he's going to be able to do it it you're giving us six and a half points but the village in this game by touchdown i don't can they win it can it be a late field goal possibly a touchdown i'd just don't see it happen

so we needed that's not the only is i love you know the right side of life right totals your house brother uh.... Bill's Chiefs 48 and a half. Where's your head at 48 and a half on Fandel is the total for this game? Yeah, I mean I think both teams the the the manager is gonna be let's run the ball Let's turn the clock and keep the ball out of the hands of the other quarterback And that's gonna lead to a pretty low scoring game low possession game And I believe this one leans to the under and the Chiefs offense has not been explosive this year They're 11 and 7 to the under this season. I think Buffalo want to keep up and keep the homes off the field turn that clock I think this game goes under the number of 48 and a half 48 and a half. We have been burned by unders

We have been consistently Leaning on unders, but I think it's gonna be cold but I think it's gonna be cold I think it's gonna be windy I think there's it's gonna be a game in the trenches I could see 24 21 bills I'm good to lock in the under all right we're on we're on the bills in the under you guys are on the Eagles and your total is forty seven and a half do you like the over or the under? Bart see I'll be completely honest with you I'm leaning under here. Now I think it's gonna be these guys in Vegas

this is what I think they're best at is these points. I think they're better at that from spread because I've got it right around here 46 to 48. But again the weather is supposed to be okay I believe it is obviously gonna be cold. But I could see this bad boy being liked seventeen to three at the half and the eagles are just grinding out runs down the stretch here

keeping control of clock commanders are going three now we're playing chess game in going to the super bowl so i like the under but i don't feel great about it i don't feel great about it let's see what your partner has in store you You get a handout six and a half points and take the under. I love that logic. That's tough to do.

I love that logic. That is tough to do. Oh, you're going to go over the top or just punch it in? No, I'm punching it in. I totally love it. There's been some good assessments. Unfortunately, I do have to agree with some of the things Al brother said but not all of it mostly lies see lies as well but i love what my partner said we had a little pow wow today we both agree first

and foremost that we will never speak to else brother away from this form and we got that straightened out immediately and we also agree if we also agreed on all of our picks all of our spreads everything we are set to go all right well listen I love where we're at else brother because these guys you know they're gonna screw this up and it'll be 6 5 at 6 30 p.m. on Sunday and what if the differential is too great before the I don't think it's possible because three points are up for grabs what do you mean possible well because it's possible because three points are up for grabs What do you mean it's not possible?

Well because It's a one point spread Let's say you guys Let's say miraculously you guys get three points and we get none You're up four There's ten points up for grabs Come the Super Bowl What?

Yes Says who? Says Dougie the commissioner Dougie I know he fell asleep after he sent the initial email Tons of points at the super bowl also for the good while we're gonna ride this thing out to the end of the year and have it decided by the color of the gatorade no serious how long and i'm gonna be serious that the totals gonna be up for grabs there's gonna be the spread and then there's gonna be like

quarterback props running back props like real actually in the game stuff real style right now said you know it's like very it talk to me talk to me boys because I don't want to sit here after the book because this year it's gotten personal and we're on the verge of Duncan on YouTube muppets okay I don't want to be burned by a coin flip in a game. Wow, okay. So let me jump in here. I think before everything, we should probably get Doogie involved as well, but you guys have to lay out some ground rules right now heading into this weekend and heading into the Super Bowl because what I've seen in the group chat is nobody's on the same page and all

of a sudden it's like, oh, well that wasn't agreed upon, that wasn't agreed upon, and then there's fighting and infighting and then there's some language that is unacceptable and then you guys are getting at each other. To me, you've got to, you know what, lay it out right now, flush it out so that we know exactly the rules for the rest of this season so that at the end when somebody wins it go well that was changed by Dougie because he's a scumbag. Yeah we've got like Jay Monahan is our commissioner right now it's everything's completely out of whack. He is a scumbag though Noodle. Well he is a scumbag.

Here's the way I see it okay one team takes the spread one team takes the total Okay, so that that's gonna be on one side of it Then I think there's a there's a quarterback prop for each team a running back prop a wide receiver prop a tight end prop That's four more right off the bat. Those are real players that are in the game like legitimate fan duel How about this we keep it simple haze that you that you just mentioned that the over under and and spread yeah and then you get to pick your other two and that's it

you know how many points you want up for grabs in the super bowl but how many how many are for grabs for each team i had four points could go up for the grabs in the super bowl four or six or six or eight week is there any way we can do this like almost like a reveal because why get a bit anxious about here is like for the spread let's say hypothetically just because i want our teams to win

it's philly burst the chiefs i'd like to kind of go on the show and be like a we pick philly or the chiefs basal spread So and be like, hey, we pick Philly or the Chiefs based on the spread and we pick here's our points and here's our three best props, whatever it is. What happens if both of us are like, oh, we want Patrick Mahomes overthrowing and it's like, oh no, you guys are allowed to have that, you're not? Well, I understandably, I mean, I think it probably, this is where Doogie's got to figure

this out. And I would say Doogie has until 3 p.m. On Sunday to determine exactly what's going on here could be some kind of trivia between Luke and Al's brother whoever gets the question gets to pick the first prop okay We'd be willing to accept I think again spread and total will be split one team will get the spread the other will get the total I think that's just fair. We've been doing spreads and totals the whole time and then the props Yeah, we could get a little bit crazy if you want we could drop that out do you'll supply you know? Let's say again. It's it's Kansas City against the Eagles. They'll be a Mahomes prop

They'll be a Hertz prop one team will get my homes the other will get hurts and then one team will get you know AJ Brown the other will get you know, whoever it is So like that's the way it's gonna go and doogie you've got till 3 p.m On Sunday and there needs to be a lawyer reading this over because I don't Thomas Johnny Cochran man. Yes, Johnny employ a lawyer of significance to read through that contract because I don't want any funny business.

Sounds good. Stay loud and stay proud. I agree. The picks are in. Hazenbrough, we're on the bills plus one and a half and the under 48 and a half. Owen Wilson on the Eagles minus six and a half and under 47 and a half. Those spreads and totals all courtesy of vandals so the picks are ready. I feel so great.

I feel so good. This is why we gave them Washington Philly hoping they would take Philly and the under. You guys are the idiots. Yeah we feel great too. I got two times Super Bowl champ on my team. Yeah we love where we're at. So good. What do't know that's got two times super bowl champ a regular season winner that's what i have a regular is water and i want to know what i'm going to stay and it's under all i'm saying is we might pop the champagne and because we're on patio homes

to basically cover by two superman shows up and we clenched we clench the way we're talking party out the on sunday can't wait at the booze ready i'll start reading again for that celebrate it's not a good part of the rest of the closet yet paid for a wild card burst that baseball materials that was a little bit of a good enough with that ecstasy backdoor with eighty nine wins in the wild card popping champagne uh... al's brother of the quillson every incredible playoff moment on tsn is These guys back door with 89 wins into the wild card.

Well, we have our sports show, but I'm surprised we haven't branched out into something like a helpline. I'm surprised by that as well. That other people within the Bell Media Empire wouldn't see that vision and say we've got to get these guys out there and really helping people. People come to us and we help them out and this first one is kind of bizarre and I don't know how any of us three were going to find out or my friend group would actually deal with this.

Dear Hazy B, my friend group and I are all in our mid-30s and a good mix of different relationship statuses. We're all pretty close-knit group and one of the guys who we consider a leader of the group and has always dated good-looking girls showed up to a dinner party last Saturday with a much older woman we believe which is 60 to 63 years old. Oh. No one has said a word about this. Do we address the situation or let it slide? Nick in Pembroke. Wow. Gotta be careful because I'm just gonna jump in here quickly. Why don't you pull the guys aside? You gotta pull them aside and say, am I missing something here?

You used to date rockets and now someone doubled your age? But what happened? What scares me is two words there. We believe. What if she's 52 and just has some mileage on her or whatever, like has an old face? That's what concerns me. unless you've seen a birth certificate Like that's what good because it just you know you you see guys that show up and be Jesus like you know but Jamie is like the the why would keep coming back into play like

You would almost think it'd be some kind no disrespect like you would think it'd be some kind of like a you are you? Jazziness here with this or like what uh... i'd it well listen i i i can say i i haven't i don't recall running into a scenario quite to that extent but here's what i would say i think you leave it

and the reason for that is and we've had these conversations before i'm i'm forty one The reason for that is, and we've had these conversations before, I'm 41 and I would say ever since I was in my early 30s to mid 30s, I relate more with people that are 50 or 60 than I would with people that are 20. So there could be a scenario there where this guy, whatever the connection is, it's, you know what I mean? Are you going with the old soul syndrome?

I'm thinking old soul and I'm thinking mid-30s the guys like hey whatever I'm it I got a lot of you know there's a lot to connect to here dude it sounds like this guy's the high school QB well he shows up with someone's grandma at a dinner party you're not going to address it there's also a scenario again where once you're into your 30s I I think it's like, what, you do whatever you're going to do, man. That's not my world, that's not my life, but it's not like you're in high school anymore and you're like, hey, what's going on? Passing notes, what are we doing here?

Who cares what anyone else is doing? I do agree with that. That would be my stance. I do think it warrants a sit down at an old school bar with just the men and just a bottle of brown liquor and you get to the bottom of it And you say you walked in with a saddlebag with eyes. What's going on here? I need to get what happened here Yeah, why did we go from rocket launchers to grandma and it's like we're just curious. That's it I'm curious. It's an honest question. It's an honest question but I I keep coming back to maybe there is a misinterpretation

of what this person's age is. Could be. But you know what? We can't sound like, what is it called? Agists? Like you can't, you know, that people are rude? Well, it's not like we're not in high school either. I'm 53.

We're three orcas. I'm nothing like that, but it just seems bizarre where somebody early 30s wheels into a dinner party like that Yeah, it's different. It's it's definitely I'm curious I want to I want to follow up on that if you ever get to the bottom of it It's all that all direct message the guy myself and say I want to call you. Let's see what's up here Dear hazy B. I was at a local bar that has a self-serve popcorn machine in it Noodles you would like that a grit grinder posted up to the machine and was grabbing Handfuls of popcorn with his bare hands stuffing his mouth Should I have Clark McSorley to him or just let it be?

So this was at a bar. Yeah, the bars have like and popcorn bars. That's what you're getting every single time. Guess what? When that guy, like it doesn't matter what the guy looks like or the fact that you saw it live, if there is alcohol and free food, that food is contaminated with absolute hooliganism. Exactly. Like if there's free popcorn. What do you mean? What is the free? You mean people go and pick it up and yes i'm telling you i'm thinking

what what are you talking about you think people are going to be like you know where's the scooper open i'm not going to have any even though i'm starving and i've had forty five beers i've watched calling a game so been upstairs in the press box there's popcorn there's bags there's a scoop there i watched a cameraman stick his grubby hand in there and grab a handful for himself while he was talking to other people. Not one person goes, what are you doing you pig?

Like it was just like the guy's done it 150 times. And I thought to myself, I'm not, you know, like... You've had that popcorn, be honest. I've had that popcorn several times. So guess what's happened? It's out of sight, out of mind. You don't need to see it. Sometimes you don't need to see how the... What is it?

The sausage is made. The hot dog's made. Yeah, exactly. You just eat it. Because the minute that you see it, it's frustrating. Well, listen. That is the truth. you just eat it because the minute that you see it it's frustrating well that's a uh... i think that is the truth like their there i don't you're going to die bars back in the day

like disgusting grubby bars was all young people that not no money there was never any food we would or i was at a dive bar somebody would get on the horn and order a pizza that would happen sometimes to that was always a you talk to just be highenas attacking the pizza. But I've witnessed and I know this for a fact, there would be beer that would get scooped in like overflowing beer and beer that would be on like on the bar or whatever. I played with guys in the NHL that would drink half beers. Yeah, someone left it on the bar. Here's your beer. Here's here's your beer and you're like it's like okay it's 1 a.m. and people like I guess I'm drinking that and their argument is

it's overflowed like no one's touched it or anything it's like yeah but it's been on the disgusting bar it's been like what else are you pouring in these drinks I think we've all consume something that probably should have course taken us down it's just you don't need to see it and there is and there is some form of like i don't know what the word is class or whatever where you like okay you shouldn't you should try to use the scoop you should try and you know i'm happening at a time or with a guy who's who's i think he's just got a turn you gotta get your problem soon as you lay eyes on it you say I'm not touching the popcorn

and I'm also not saying a word to that guy yeah you're not going Clark McSorley over no no you can't do that come on dear hazy B the boys and I are heading up to Ottawa for the Leafs game last year we got absolutely buckled on the Friday took it easy on the Saturday morning afternoon, went to the Leafs game and went right back to the Airbnb to get some sleep because we never got rest from the previous night. Do we go bananas again tonight, take a midday nap tomorrow and get back out there or chill Friday night casual bar food and get after it tomorrow night after the game. No, I mean, come on. This is the thing.

The greatest night of any trip is the first night. I know, dude, but I guess you're right. So you say floor tonight and take it easy at the game. I think so because you're so jacked up, especially if you're older and you don't get to see... I get together with my oldest friends like once a year maybe. And the idea of it being a scenario where we all say let's just relax tonight and everyone just go to bed early and it never happens.

You see people for the first time, you're so excited, one drink leads to the next and one guy's already ahead so he's the pace card and you're like alright well he's setting the tone like we're all going follow this guy's lead so no you're gonna get after it tonight the siesta is a very veteran move if you can have a little afternoon sleep and then head to the rink and then see what happens right you got to get to the game though that there that's the worst like I've been on trips where guys have gotten like we went to Wrigley day three of a trip it's actually my bachelor party and I had two buddies who didn't make it into the game Because it was day three and they were done and they're like one of them came to Wrigley and so I gotta go

I'm out of here and I'm like dude. We're here. We're at Wrigley like we're in Chicago. I get it's been three days, but come on Just tell me couldn't do it and he got hungover. He got there and said I'm out of here. I can't do this That's ten years ago More than that eleven years ago Could you imagine what it would be like now if you're in your 40s just what I do recommend if you're gonna floor it out The game keep it cool. Keep it civil. No garbage Nothing with the fans. Keep it real, right? Exactly go on there and that's why you have a great night tonight tomorrow

You just go on there as fans and watch the hockey game and then shut her down afterwards if you have to. Exactly I agree Be frank, be frank. One last one from our guy Greggy here. Yeah, dear hazy B. My kid usually goes to bed around 730 I have to help out with that routine. I'm a massive Bills fan Game starts at 6 30 p.m How do I rid myself of that responsibility? Is it okay to have my five-year-old on the couch watching my phone? Worked last week, he fell asleep. Perfect.

Wow. That is a perfect move. This is a conundrum for parents with young children where you get a football game like this and you know it's going to be affected by bedtime. Hey, let me just go first here. Is it not okay to say, look, the Bills are my team, these games don't come around that often, can I just have the night off? Is that okay? Well, yeah, I mean, sure.

You could ask for that. There's no guarantee it's going to be a wish that's granted here's there's multiple kids it's difficult that time stop you guys know what i mean i know but it's really nice i see i get his feet going i have to help out like you know if it's a given take give the kid your phone

let him fall asleep right against you you watch the game you carry him up in a you know in you carry him up in a you know in a break in it in a commercial and away a half-time exactly at the half-time right and when is the game sorry is the game six thirties the bills game but sunday right so yes on a night at school line i had to get to get the half-time shut the mill down everything's gonna be fine

yes not you know you're gonna have to do that this is the problem with technology and I'm guilty of it too everyone's like just pause it or just record it I don't have the willpower to do that I will be looking at my phone wondering what's happening I cannot stop myself I need to know what's happening in a big game like that and I'm sure that's his concern but ultimately you got to find a way to to parent too man I mean I I think you do whatever you can to get to halftime if not I think it's in your best interest to shut it down early rather than late but you don't

want to push him into the second half you want to be prepared for the second half dear hazy be brought to you by Boston Pizza Canada's favorite sports bar this January at BP get delicious mouthwatering pasta starting at $11.99 every single day enjoy the pastas you love at the prices you can't miss hustle in your local BP tonight all right we've been helping people that's important I think you got to dig into the guy with the dinner party yeah let's see where that goes I think we also got to be careful there are some 60 plus people that watch the show and might take offense to that.

Yeah they're still doing that occasionally in the NBA they got Atlanta on Saturday. Yeah so it's it's going to be a fun weekend it's going to be a fun fun weekend and the Jays are still linked to a lot of different guys right a lot of different linkage in terms of what the Jays could do different guys right a lot of different linkage in terms of what the J's could do so maybe they signed Pete Alonso or Max Scherzer by Monday I mean obviously the fan base has got to be happy that they're just having just pro sports you

can't just fold up your tent but you wonder what it all means it's like missed out on that missed out on that missed out on that and now it's like what like what option are we in is it like three or four yeah so it's like a pretty far down the list and and and as i said a couple days ago haze what does it mean to the fan base like what are your expectations with the signings with this roster like what do you expect to do this year because you don't tell me super bowl yeah it's not a world series it's not world series right now is there any signing

where you could go this is is gonna be a 92 win team? No, I don't think so. I mean, could you add multiple guys, possibly noodles? You know, if it's Alonso and, but you gotta be realistic. They're not signing like Bregman and Alonso and multiple arms. You know, it's just, there's a budget.

There's only so much they're gonna spend. So probably not. The answer's probably not answers probably not but we'll see what comes of it uh... melaton friday brought to you by boston pizza canada's favorite sports bar this january bp get delicious mouthwatering pasta starting at eleven ninety nine every single day enjoy the posses you love the prices you can't miss us in your local bp tonight
