Okay, let's go Boy! Now in the streets there is violence
And then a lot of stuff worth to be done
No place to hang out or washing
And then again they all on the sun
Oh no, we gonna rock it down too
He let's break high brand new
And then we're taking higher It's pardoning my take.
There's an about harshness for us.
Welcome to pardon my take today is Wednesday, August 9th and football is back.
Hard knocks, baby. Hard knocks.
In tradition, unlike any other, we get super pumped up.
We watch footballs on our screen.
We enjoy it. And then, oh yeah, not a lot goes on.
We already saw most everything that happened.
But it was cool to see behind the scenes
the Nathaniel Hackett stuff, him with Aaron Rodgers
and how they reacted
to Sean Payton, comments and all that.
That part was kind of cool. I like that.
Yes, yes. So football is back.
Let's talk hard knocks in a minute.
We should probably address the big news today.
Mincey's back.
Mincey's back.
Yes. So if you are living under a rock
or if you only listen to the show, first of all,
thank you. That means you're a wonderful AWL.
It was announced today that Penn who owned us or if you only listen to the show, first of all, thank you. That means you're a wonderful AWL.
It was announced today that Penn who owned us,
Barstool Sports, has sold Barstool Sports back to us,
back to Dave.
They are creating a new app or, yeah,
in conjunction with ESPN, ESPN Bets.
Penn, wonderful people.
Jason Odin will be a friend for life. They change my
life, they change all of our lives. But the big news is that Barstool is back to being independent.
So it's pretty cool. It's been a crazy 20 years for Barstool. I think the 20th anniversary
is coming up in a couple of weeks. It's been, you know, we've been doing this show for
seven, eight years. We are back to independent, back to the pirate ship.
I think it's a deal that works out for everyone very well.
We, listen, can't lose Parlay.
People saw what happened with that.
Turns out regulators maybe don't love bar stool.
Don't love us.
And I get that.
It totally makes sense.
I think Penn had the same thought like, Hey, we thought this is going to work out
maybe a little better with regulators. It didn't. So we are back to being ourselves
independent and Penn is going to be doing something with ESPN and ESPN Bets. And I think
it's going to be wildly successful because Penn has some really incredible people. But
yeah, we are back to being independent. The pirate ship goes back out there into the
ocean. I did see some people being like, Oh, can goes back out there into the ocean.
I did see some people being like, oh, can you guys now do stuff you didn't do? I don't think we changed anything under Penn. I truly don't. I know people will, yes, there were different ways
that we had to talk about gambling, gambling, regulators were stringent. But in terms of the content
of this show, I don't think we changed anything. Did we PFT? We were gonna do instead of Pistach shitcats at one point. That's too. Jason Odin said, Hey, I don't know if we can go that
forward with you guys. Maybe dial back. Just keep it number one only. I have one too. Wait, wait,
hold on. Before before you say yours, PFT, or Hank, PFT, I'm sure you got the same thing of people
being like Pistach's back. They're just completely not realizing that both you and I
have pissed our pants on camera in the last six months.
Yeah.
Multiple times.
Yeah, I don't really know what I,
I, I, I, I, I, I, I,
I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I know everyone says that, but I truly do believe that they ride and die with us through thick and thin. They're always behind us. We have a dream job because of the
people that listen and support us and I never has lost. I mean, never, ever, ever, but I
will say too, we have not really changed that much. We've been pissing our pants.
Right. I would love to come back and say like, oh, I'm so glad because we get to really
let everything fly that we haven't been with. But we've, I don't think we've dialed anything back at all.
Yeah, it's just been, it's been how we talked about gambling,
which I understand that was part of the rules.
And it made sense to make sure that we talked about gambling
the correct way under pen.
And even when we did that, and we were varied,
there was a lot of people who did a really good job
of making sure everything was cleared with the gambling stuff and still we ran into the issues with
the regulars. I think that was kind of the eye opening moment for all parties and so
yeah I don't think the content has changed on this show specifically at all and it won't
and it will keep going forward but it is fucking awesome that we're the pirate ship.
Hank, yes there was that 2020 there was the leaf blower video of the person
blowing a leaf blower full of weed around a room. Yeah. You guys told me to do it. I got a pound
of weed. I acquired a pound of weed to do the video in the studio. And then you guys were like,
well, we're about to sell the pen so you can't do it.
So then I said, how you can hold on to this pound of weed?
Oh, no.
Do you still have the pound?
No, I was gone probably like June.
It was clearly.
Okay, so we can do that video.
Yeah, we'll be out of the blue.
Well, yeah, we're tired, but that was one thing
that, you know, pen stopped from happening.
We, we, we, we, we have it back.
Hank along those same lines.
I've been anglin' to get a brand of pre-rolls
put out there called Just Mids.
Just call them Mids.
Just average weed.
And I've been going for it and they keep saying,
no, we can't do that because it's sanctioning drug use,
which I totally understand.
But now, maybe that's something we can get into.
Yeah, maybe put out our own weed strand.
Maybe the idea that we had the other day,
we can do of me, PFT, in Hank doing a three man scramble
after eating mushrooms and we try to beat Jake
who's dressed great thing.
This is so part.
It's Jake is so it's gonna be hilarious, but yeah, everything has, I know that people will,
will try to think deeper into all this stuff, but I really do think that both parties are
gonna be very successful, and I think ESPN bets is gonna crush, and I know the people
at Penn very well, and they're all very, very smart.
And this was kind of a thing where it's like, hey, we know that the regulars
are gonna keep coming for us, and it's gonna be, we're gonna play by different rules,
and we thought it was gonna work, and it didn't work exactly how we thought. It still worked,
it was still successful for a lot of the things, but yeah, that we are the pirate ship again.
So, Jake is told is coming. I do think it's the rare win, win, win.
Yeah, I think, like I'm happy.
I think Penn's happy.
I think ESPN's happy.
I think everybody's happy.
So, we're all happy.
It's good stuff.
Speaking of piss dogs,
I just want to share this story real quick
because I'm raising a dog, Blake, right?
And Blake is about three and a half months old,
potty training, doing really well for the most part. I went in to take a piss. He likes to follow me
into the bathroom to watch me pee. Today, he just followed me into the bathroom as I'm pissing.
And he sees me peeing and he's standing right behind me and he starts pissing right onto the
bath mat, onto the bathroom floor. He's a pissed off. Bro, absolutely rocks. I loved it.
Yeah, but not trained. Not trained. Not yet. Not's a pissed off bro absolutely rocks. I loved it. Yeah, but not trained
Not trained not yet not yet. We're working on it. It's a process. It's a process trust the process
Right Max isn't that what you always say
He's just nodding because he knows that if he unmutes his mic
We're gonna be like and how the process go and then he's gonna be like we're gonna trust it
All right, should we talk?
Should we talk some football?
Should we talk some, some hard knocks?
I'll just start with the fact that,
I'm not even doing a bit right now.
I've never seen Aaron Rodgers happier.
He looks so happy.
He looks so relaxed.
I'm so happy for him.
It is great.
It's like someone like getting away from an
Evil evil empire. He's he's essentially been you know, he's he's gotten his
What am I looking for? What's the word? It's late at night the
Swagger
Cackels
Stennis what are cackels? Well, I was gonna say it's like, what are cacles? What are cacles? Well, I was going to say it's like a, it's like an orca in captivity where the curve
fin shouts out in the ocean.
Dorsal fin straight up shackles.
Yeah.
By the way, side tangent, Lolita being 50 years old like that is, that orca is going to
go in the ocean and die right away, right?
It might be just too much.
It's never been making it to the ocean. It's it's it's it's it's it's Brooks from Shawshank
Lolita's going to end up in the ocean and be like what the fuck I had a good life the ocean wind and got
Self in a big damn hurry
Fuck he's gonna be like I have to find food now or she so yeah, that's the side tangent about Jim or say
Yeah or she. So yeah, that's the side tangent about Jim or say, uh, yeah, Aaron Rogers, the shackles
are off. He looks like he and me himself. He changed his number. He looks happy. And his
quarterback coach, this new up and coming guy who I've never seen in the NFL before. Um,
what's his name? He has a big beard jack. I think his name's Nate Hackett. Nate Hackett. Yeah,
I've never seen him before. That guy looks like a smart guy. I think he name's Nate Hackett. Nate Hackett, yeah, I've never seen him before.
That guy looks like a smart guy.
I think he's future head coach material.
Just the way that it tells you a lot,
the way that you can get along with a star quarterback
if you have that trust, that guy's a rising star,
a guy to keep an eye on in the NFL.
He's got to learn some stuff probably about like clock management,
timeouts, end of game stuff, stuff you don't get to experience
as a quarterback coach or really an offense coordinator sometimes.
But once he gets that under his belt, I think he's going to, he's going to turn some heads.
He was, he also, by the way, has an ass.
I think he grew his ass out a little bit this off season.
Yeah, he was very smart to go with the new facial hair.
He reminds me of like a Duke player, a plumbly going to the NBA and getting some tattoos
and a new haircut. Like, hey, that's, that was the old me. I'm, I'm, I'm Nate Hackett
now. I look like I have a child, I drive a chopper to work and he looked jacked and he
was out there having fun. He looks like such a fun guy. I kind of want to get him on
PMT.
Yeah, he should interview him. The Gold member stuff. I bet he's got some great stories
about Blake Bordel's. He the Coach M. Yes, yes.
What other things?
My personal big takeaway was that
crows are dumb as shit.
Yeah.
Did you hear the opening monologue
that Robert Sala gave?
So he sat the players down,
gave them an animal fact at the start,
which is that crows are the only animal,
the only bird that attacks eagles,
and that eagles to defend themselves from crows,
let the crow land on their back, then they fly straight up,
and then the crow suffocates to death,
and falls off and crashes to the earth.
Crows are so fucking dumb.
This is...
Think that happened in Iron Man.
Crows, yeah, I think it did too.
I think it did too.
It's a miracle that crows ever,
I mean, this is one of the things
that we probably can't go off on, or we couldn't go off on when Penda Onus, but fuck crows.
Like crows have more than anything like that.
I don't know what it is, but I've been told my whole life that crows are the smartest
bird in the world.
And it's a miracle that they ever get out of bed in the morning about stabbing themselves
in the butthole with their own beak because they're so stupid that they just hold on to
the back of an eagle and die of not being able to breathe.
And they're bad vibes. You see a crow, it's bad vibes. That's not a good vibes bird. That's a bad, like you see a blue J, you see an oracle, you see a cardinal, you're like,
oh, I'm going to stare at that out of my back porch. You see a crow and you're like, wait, death is around the corner. They're bad. Five birds. They're called a murder of crows for a reason. But the message behind that was,
if you ain't got no haters, you ain't popping.
So, Salah was saying that the crows are the haters, us,
the media, and that the eagles are actually the jets,
which means that they're gonna fish in second this year,
but they're just flying like,
I don't know, they're flying all the crows off their back.
Yeah.
It is funny that there will be like a few people who are like, man,
finally, they can say fuck crows. Yeah.
With it, never were able to say that before. Uh, other things.
I don't know if you guys saw my tweet. So if you did, don't answer this, but how old
is Randall cop? Oh, yeah, you brought this up last year, I think. He's young.
Yeah. I bring it up every year. He is 32.
He's 32 years old.
I didn't do it.
He's going to be 33 in a couple of weeks.
You did see it?
I did not.
Oh, okay.
32 years old Randall Cobb.
Like when I saw him in this, I was like,
holy shit, he's still in the league.
And then I remember reminded myself like,
oh, wait, he's 32 years old.
And he feels like he's been in the league
for 10 million years.
Yeah, that would mean he's been the league for what?
What? This is 12th season coming up.
Yeah, it's crazy.
That is, that is crazy.
He's one of those, one of those like late babies.
When you're born in late August, early September,
you kind of on that cutoff sometimes
on which grade you're going to be in.
All the kids that were born like September 1st,
September 2nd were the best at sports in high school.
That's, I'm dealing with that right now on the home front because my son was born
in June and I'm like, let's hold him back for a year.
Yeah.
My wife's like, why?
It's like, cause of sports.
Yeah.
That's not a reason.
No, it is.
It is.
It is.
It is.
Yes.
I don't think you can do June though.
It's way too.
It's way, like, if I could, I would hold back a kid who like, if my kid was born in March,
I'd be like, let's hold them back
Yeah, you just purposely don't teach him how to read so we feel he feels kindergarten
Repeat then he's the first kid to hit five feet tall when he's like you know in fifth grade
Baskinball. Yeah, probably probably gets to play quarterback listen that could shape a child even
He's not gonna end up being a great athlete,
but if he was just a great athlete
for a couple of years, that could change everything.
Yeah, if you are a true sports dad,
you should only conceive a child with a New Year's baby.
New Year's Eve is when football guys fuck.
No, it's, no, September, I think you can hold them back
for a full year.
So yeah, so New Year's.
New Year's, oh yeah, you're right.
Yeah, conceive on New Year's.
Yeah, you have them in September.
I don't have to answer, but I put three years a little because of a changeback rule.
And it was, it was the peak of my athletic achievement.
I was the sheep.
She was a human.
I was 13 years old, six feet tall throwing no hitters every game.
It was the best.
That's awesome.
That rules. Yeah. Like every parent should aspire to that,
that like, Hey, let's be honest here. Let's just break it down. They're not going to be a college
athlete, a pro athlete. Why not just let them dominate when they're fucking in sixth grade? Like,
they'll just let them go crazy in sixth grade and they'll have that forever. Maybe get a college
scholarship out of it. Who knows? Jake, can you actually set a reminder on the calendar? Remind me to have sex on New Year's Eve.
Yeah. Yeah. Also a twig walk coming up.
I took a little preview look week one.
I have some crazy reminders.
And I want to give it to us.
Can you give us a couple? Yeah.
A couple of teas. Just a tease.
Don't let big cat believe in Carson Wentz if he starts.
We'll talk about that. Okay, well that's, that's, yeah, we'll talk about that later and that's solved itself.
If a bad team is good in the first week of three weeks of the season, just wait.
I'm not going to do that. I'm not going to do that. No,
these are all very smart thoughts. The colds have it won in nine straight week ones.
Ooh, but Anthony Richardson's lighting it up.
And your season ticket holders now.
And we're seeing it holders.
That's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, that's a, we're going week one.
Like that's like we're betting on the colds week one stat.
Yeah, we have water always finds level.
Yeah, I just got to see you to take Patrick will home with the FC West. Okay, I just got the F.T. to take Patrick Wilhelm's part in the F.C. West.
Okay, who's Patrick Wilhelm's? Yeah.
So one thing I first can't lose, Parley.
Oh, it's gonna slip.
One thing I'm learning from Jake's notes here,
we're smart.
We're just dumb.
Right. No, we're, we're, we are emotional men.
We are knee jerk reaction, hard on the sleeve men, who in the moment can't really get ourselves
out of a wet paper bag, but with hindsight and a little bit of distance, we have some really
good thoughts.
Yeah, no, we get it.
We know ball.
Right.
Yeah, you're right.
In the moment, like football is an emotion.
Right.
I caught up in it.
Like, I can't wait till like the chiefs are going to go up seven to nothing
and I'm alive bet the chiefs at like minus 300 and they're going to lose the game.
Like I'm like the chiefs will never lose. The best team ever. So yeah that will happen.
That will absolutely happen. Also can you set a reminder for me Jake? Now I've talked to Max about this. I
Am stuck in a situation because I don't I don't want to root for the Eagles like I did last year again
Because I just don't want to do that again. That was it that took enough out of me
But I do think the Eagles what's the Eagles schedule? There's a spot PFT
We got to do this together. Maybe with our Twitter payouts. We can do this
Which shout out Elon
starting to hit
PFT or Jake center reminder for me and PFT to put a future on the Eagles on
December 11th they have a stretch where they play the Cowboys chiefs bills Niners and Cowboys
That price is gonna go there. That's gonna be when we strike They have a stretch where they play the Cowboys, Chiefs, Bills, Niners and Cowboys.
That price is going to go there.
That's going to be when we strike.
That's going to be when we strike, PFT.
That's going to be when we strike.
Also Jake set a reminder for week one to disregard all the other members.
What about you, that loosely won?
What about you, that loosely won?
Well, they lose week one.
We'll check the price.
I just can't, and this is something that it sucks to admit, but I can't. I think I
will probably have to bet the Eagles to win the Super Bowl for the rest of my life chasing that 22
to one because if they win it this year and I don't have a bet, I will be so, so upset. So yeah,
I just stuck and I won't talk about it like I did last year because I'll just put it in and just
forget it, but I just know that probably until the Eagles win their next Super Bowl, I have a future
on them.
So it could be like 50 years and I'd be like, still, 22 to one, going to make it back.
I'm a team player.
I put eight grand on the Eagles to win the Super Bowl because I couldn't root against Big
Cat to lose, you know, $220,000 or whatever.
But I don't think I can put a future on the Eagles in good conscious. Yeah, I lost too much last year too
It just goes against every fire. It's not like I I despise the Eagles. I mostly despise
I've grown up despising my own team more than anything
But still every man has a lot. I can't put a I can't put a future on the position
Wait for December 11th
Wait for December 11th when they're like popping it like 12 to one.
And we're like, ooh, watch out.
Would I have to just put Max in a fucking Hannibal Lecter suit the day before the Super Bowl.
Be wheeling him around in Las Vegas, you know, have a fucking get mask on and everything.
It's about you can't drink anything, you can't do anything, just wheeling him.
I actually think that for Max's own good, he shouldn't be allowed to go to the Super Bowl
if the Eagles are in it.
Oh no, he's going, he's going,
and we're doing the same deal
and he's gonna sit front row.
I want like $20,000 ticket system.
I won't even win.
I'm gonna root against the Eagles.
Play the hits, run it back.
Okay, other things.
Yeah, hard knocks overall, like nothing really happened, but it's just the best feeling in early August
to see that music, leaves Shriver showing up.
Like, there's just nothing better.
Oh, oh, I had one of the things,
sauce gardener and Aaron Rodgers have a very cool handshake.
Yeah, the smoke.
It's like a triangle and then the smoke.
Yes, pretty sick.
I actually agree with you on Aaron Rodgers.
I think he does look happy.
Like watching him when leaves Schreiber.
Well, from the selectively edited 15 minutes of content that was approved by the team, Aaron
seems like a great guy and a great football player.
Yeah, great fucking guy, great football player.
I've always loved Aaron Rodgers this year.
That's a fact. You can't
just get that fact this season. Yeah. This this season. Well, no, because he lost
the Lions this year too. 2020 2023. I've been a big Aaron Rogers fan overall. Last
thing Colin Coward released his list of quarterbacks. Can't win a Super Bowl and he said Dwayne Haskins can't.
Fact check.
I guess technically true.
Yeah. What a,
did he ever apologize for that or say
anything?
I don't know.
I don't know.
It's a,
it's a pretty bad take on his,
but I don't think he did it on purpose.
I actually, which is maybe more of an
indictment on Colin Coward.
I, I don't think that Colin Coward
realized that Dwayne Haskins was dead.
Crazy, insane.
Like to just, yeah, imagine if you're Dwayne Haskins family
and you see that, you're like watching the herd.
Like, yeah, you can't wanna say,
oh, cool, thanks Colin, awesome job.
Shepters watching this, like,
why couldn't you have said that the day had happened
to take some of the steam off me?
Seriously, seriously.
Okay, we got a great rest of the show.
We're gonna kick it back to ourselves in studio.

now there's co cores like blue mountains the best in the biz it's coldest beer in the
world it's the beer this summer, it's our favorite beer.
So this summer chill like you're retired with core is light,
celebrate responsibility, core is brewing company,
golden Colorado, okay, hot sea cool throne,
but we're doing things a little out of order
because last night at about what was it like nine o'clock,
we got a text on the PMT group text.
By the way, someone was pointing out,
so I tweeted out Jake's text.
Someone pointed out that it's called PMT Full Group.
Why did that happen?
Because Billy's suspension.
Billy's suspension.
Okay.
The avatar was Billy's face with a circle
and a line through it over.
So we can go back to that one.
Yeah, because people kept on saying like,
oh, I wonder what's not the PMT full group, you know,
like, it really, there's only one side chat.
It's me, PFT and Hank, and that's us talking about memes.
So that there, everyone,
all the other conversation goes in the PMT full group.
I thought it was Billy.
Jake was, Jake was so fired up last night.
Yeah, I don't think we've ever gotten a text from Jake
being like, no, permission to go in.
Yeah, so he said, can I rant on the Orioles broadcasting situation
on the show tomorrow?
Permission granted.
Listen, if you're a lot of talk on the podcast show,
but I requested a segment.
Jake, you're part of it?
New sender, new sender, new sender.
New sender.
What should we call it?
When Jake's really fired, like once a year when Jake's fired up.
When broadcasters gets suspended for no reason
Okay, the odds of Mars. I'm running about that
We should actually give away we should give equity of pardon my take to everyone here
And then that way if like we ever have a controversy we like draw straws us take the bullets. Yeah
Jake you have 98% of the equity on pardon my take respect to biz Jake
Okay, so Jake are you ready? I'm ready. Okay, let's give the context first. Yes. Give all the context. Okay, so please don't be biased though
Please don't be biased. There was no bias in this
No, the context because I have yet sounds like you're already a little bit biased. No, I did an old debate trick
I told you last night that I'm gonna take the side of John Angelo's
I'm not but I wanted you prepare for that. I know you're not, because then you would get roasted
by the end of the day too.
He kinda rules, but that's, we'll talk about that later.
Yeah, in a terrible, terrible way.
Okay, so Kevin Brown played by a play broadcast
through Baltimore Royals on Massin.
He got who punched the concrete?
No, different.
Yeah, you got confused by the former.
I did, Kevin Brown, whose son's name is rich.
Yes. So a week or two ago, he was doing his broadcast open anytime you watch a game, you're on the
air, you're on camera for a few minutes, pre-produced segments, graphics, VOs, things like that. A pre-produced
element of this opening between the Orioles and the Rays showed how the Orioles who have been historically
bad the last few years, they have not won 16 series in a row at Tropa Cana Field.
But this year, the Orioles, of course, the darlings of the MLB, big cats got a huge future.
The Orioles are the darlings of the MLB.
This season, yeah.
Okay.
I would actually argue that.
They're like the bowl team show in the Orioles.
Young stars, like they've been the
lapping stock Tations exactly their first place in the
L right now, right? I believe in a link of MLB. That's true.
He just he just came back from it's been since 2017 six
years since they won a series at Tropicaly field, but this
season Kevin Brown mentioned they've won three times in
five opportunities. So they're So they're better this year.
They're much better this year compared to years past.
But he pointed out that they'd lost
the 18th year.
But he pointed out that they had not won 16 straight series.
And the guy in charge of the Orioles,
John Angelo says, that's too sensitive.
You're out.
You're suspended.
Okay.
And definitely.
The CEO of the Orioles.
Yes.
Now, would you clarify this as an insults fact?
No.
Okay.
I would say.
I'm gonna play devil's advocate.
Okay.
I'm more to say.
Okay.
That's the basis for those around.
Go off.
P.F.T.I.
We'll play devil's advocate after.
Go off.
Okay.
So, you're suspending the broadcaster for stating those facts.
Where did he get those facts from the truck?
Hmm, so it's on the trucker. Where does the truck get those facts from the team's PR game notes?
In that case suspend all of that.
He just tossed him.
You're gonna just suspend him.
If you're gonna YouTube, you're just talking! You're gonna see that out here. If you're gonna just suspend him,
you gotta suspend everyone else
involved with making that decision
of making these facts come to light.
So Jake, how do you know that they got it in that order,
that the guys in the truck got it from the team?
I mean, they're not making up stats.
Like when you're a producer of a broadcast,
like you Google these, you get these from,
like legitimate sources.
Yeah, okay.
So in reality, you get these facts, it's Jake Shapiro.
But the facts don't care about your feelings.
The truck doesn't make up these numbers.
They get it from a source.
Someone who's in charge of compiling the numbers.
They were so bad.
They were so bad.
They were so bad.
They were so bad.
They were so bad it felt made up.
Like how could they be that bad?
Yeah.
So I don't understand why he has to take the heat for this because it's just insane.
And every other broadcaster was clowning on the Orioles like they had such a good thing going.
They had the entire baseball road on their side.
And now people, not me, I want Big Cat to win, 35 to one.
Thank you.
People are going to root against the Orioles just to see their own.
I don't think so because Jake, if this is your first exposure to how bad of a guy,
John Angelos is and Peter Angelos,
like what bad owners they are,
then you need to pay more attention to them in the past
because nothing's gonna change.
Because all of them are gonna be the same.
That's me, I'm not.
We're still rooting for the team.
The team's fun.
People will, though.
The players are fun.
The owner, this is a guy that you'll remember last,
I think it was on Martin Luther King
Junior days. He gave his first public address to reporters and years, I think. And they asked him
because he had contacted Goldman Sachs to inquire about selling the team and what that would look
like. They asked about that. They said also because he was getting sued by his brother. He was getting
sued by his brother, but they wanted to know like, what's the future of the Orioles? Are they going to
move the team or are you going to sell it? are you coming back to Camden Yards because your lease is expiring
and then he said listen I think it's disgusting that you would ask me these questions
on MLK Day when I'm here to talk about the great work that Martin Luther King Jr. has done in
the community and obviously Martin Luther King Jr. would not care about a billionaire moving jobs
away from a predominantly black inner-city community that's nothing that he would care about a billionaire moving jobs away from a predominantly black intercity community.
That's not that he would care about.
But Peter Angelo's and John Angelo's
are just world class scumbags.
They're villains.
They're villains.
And what are the DMV owners?
Pro sports.
Well, former.
Former.
Every parent.
Jake, I'm not gonna play devil's advocate.
I'm just whole region.
I'm gonna introduce you to reality.
No, the cults are the rape. No, the cults moved.
Yeah, they did.
They did.
They did.
That was not Jim or say that did that.
He used powerlifting, smoking sigs.
But I'm gonna use reality as a counter argument to Jake.
In reality, this is the way that it's set up now,
where teams own their own broadcast companies.
I think in the case of the royals, it's 70%.
Yeah.
That's own.
Madison has the royals and the Nats.
Yeah, and that's a whole other thing where the Orioles
owe the nationals like hundreds of millions of dollars
that he just won't pay.
But in reality, teams now own their own in house
broadcasting services.
And if you're going to work for those broadcasting
services, like journalism is long gone out the window at that point.
So all these owners are like little warlords
in their own towns and they control the message,
they control the propaganda,
and so this is just kind of what's gonna happen.
But that's the point.
It's not good. I'm not saying it's good.
It's spinning in a positive way.
I've seen local broadcasters get fired
for being too negative about their team.
This is the exact opposite fact
So I it's terrible. He should Kevin Brown should be real style also. Oh
I'm biased take your place to say your bias to start. I mean, you're supposed to say your bias to start if that took a
long time to get to that if he went to Northwestern. I'd have the same exact response
Well, who's to say if if we were a fifth, we'd be drunk.
Yeah.
All right, so yeah, it's crazy.
Kevin Brown seems like a really good broadcaster.
This is also the same team that got rid of,
didn't, wasn't John Miller.
Right.
It was like the voice of something at baseball, right?
Incredible baseball voice.
So it's bad.
He should be re, he should be re-instated.
They said he's gonna be bad.
It's an insane move, but I still keep going back
to the point that if I own the team,
I'd probably do the same thing.
I'd just be like, because they also found out
John Angelo's enacted a new policy
mandating that their broadcasters were only team gear
went on air.
He's basically running this like North Korea.
It's crazy.
I have a question.
But I kind of like, I kind of like the idea being like insult facts are not allowed.
Can I wear part of my take here outside of the show?
I'm gonna say no because you're trying to back us into a corner here.
Yeah.
So that's pretty much what he's saying.
Like that's crazy.
God forbid he represents his team on the street. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, is bad. And it doesn't seem right, it seems scuzzy. And from a moral point of view, you're right,
but as Big Cat says, if you own a team,
he can do what he wants.
He can do what he wants, and he can be a scumbag.
He'll never be able to do what he wants.
But now he has no one's gonna.
Spins on for Kevin Brown.
He's coming out of this looking great.
He's got everybody across the world
being like three, seven brown.
Because it's ridiculous.
Now, you know what else happened is because that mandate that you
said, Big Cat, where you have to wear a team issue gear, they kicked one of
their radio broadcasters out there. Kevin Brown, they had filled in on the radio
for that guy. Yeah. They're also they're also not allowed. They've been
reprimanded previously for mentioning past Oreo players who are no longer with
the team. Yeah. He basically is like, I want positive vibes only.
Don't give me any insult facts.
These are positive vibes.
Your team has stunk the last few years.
Now they're really good.
I was, I watched the clip.
I was shocked.
They hadn't won a series since 2017 in the Trump.
Right, but yeah, that's just showing that in the corner.
Yeah, but I know that now and that's, I mean, that's terrible.
Jake, how would you feel if you do PLL game right? Yeah, nail the final call. It's a buzzer beater goal. Water dogs win.
Yeah, yeah, that's all right. So let's go back to reality. Okay, they tie the water. They tie and then it goes to overtime
Then they lose and overtime, but you nail the call at the end of the game, right? And then the first thing we say is
Hey Jake, was that a shot of a lifetime?
You'd probably be pissed off at us, right?
We'll bring up insult facts from the past.
And insult facts are hurt feelings.
That's what Kevin Brown did.
He brought up insult facts.
Well, he brought up something that was offered by the truck,
which was put together by the PR team.
Sounds like you're throwing the truck under the truck.
No, I'm just saying, like, if he's going to be held responsible,
then the owners should suspend every single person.
They should all walk out.
John Angel should call the game himself.
Yeah.
Which actually would kind of rule.
That would be awesome.
See, in episode The Simpsons, where Mr. Burns
runs the entire power plant, and they go on strike.
Yeah, I mean, again, this is everyone should stand
with Kevin Brown.
I don't think it's one of, it's very hard to find a thing online
where everyone is in agreement.
Everyone is in agreement that Kevin Brown got screwed.
John Angelus is a bad guy, but I just,
the idea of insult facts, it makes me laugh.
Like if I walked around and I was like,
anyone who calls me fat is fired.
That would kinda rule.
See, like everyone has to call me skinny. I don't know.
I'm learning Simmons, buddy.
Yeah.
So Kevin Brown deserves to be reinstated.
Hopefully, this propels him to get a even better job.
Because that would be the best ending
is that another team is like, wait, this guy's awesome.
We have an old broadcaster who's gonna retire or something.
Let's hire him pay a shitload of money.
Get him out of there.
He's really good too.
He does ESPN, call it football and basketball.
I don't think people will stop rooting against Orioles
because I do think people can at this point in time,
most owners are complete assholes
and you still root for your team.
Governors.
Governors, yeah.
I mean, Stan Kronke, like he's won every title. It's not, Nugget's fans aren't like, damn, I wish we didn't win that because of Stan Kronke, like he just he's won every title. Right.
It's not nuggets fans aren't like, damn, I wish we didn't win that because of Stan Kronke.
They're just like, yeah, look at Stan Kronke whispering in people's ears on the stage.
He's a weirdo.
Let's just pretend that that doesn't exist.
We won the title.
Yeah.
Behind every great fortune is a great crime.
I think Joe rules said that.
The Red Sox got rid of Don Arsillo for no reason and still, people are still mad at it.
Yeah, that's crazy too.
And he's doing well at the pod race.
That's the best.
I usually don't laugh at Wikipedia edits.
I think they're like the lowest form of comedy
besides, I don't know, like misspelling words
intentionally badly on Twitter.
But there was a very funny one earlier today.
If you go to John Angelo's his Wikipedia page,
it says he's listed as giant baby John Angelos.
Yes, as his official name.
He is a giant baby.
Which I think he, we should just always refer to John Angelos as giant baby John Angel.
And he's such a giant baby that he will never face the music.
No, like you said, he, the last time he, the first time he had been in public in a long
time was Martin Luther King Day giving away a scholarship.
You even missed a part that was so funny that he called out
the reporter who asked him the question
and he's like, are you even from here?
It was a beat reporter for the Orioles who've been covering
them for like years and years.
Yeah, so he doesn't even know the beat reporter.
He does even know his beat reporter.
So Jake, good rant.
I love the, I need a clip of him kicking them all out.
I mean, do you guys agree with that?
Like, no, why don't I agree with that?
He have to take, why is he the only person
getting in trouble for this?
Like, you know, it's got the numbers.
Yeah, sounds like you're trying to get everybody else
in trouble.
Yeah, but it sounds like if they got in trouble,
you'd be like, all right, that's fine.
That's fine.
Sounds like you're taddling on the class.
No, I'm not taddling on the class.
In that case, either suspend everyone
or suspend everyone.
Everyone should walk out.
I did like when I, when I was like,
I almost respect
John Angelo's level of like controlling the media.
One guy replied to me was like, this isn't a joking matter
a guy's a guy's jobs at stake.
It's like, well, what what are the reason
we have to be on Twitter?
Yeah, and also that's like every time we talk about a player
performing badly in a game, his job is at stake.
Our job's are we're tweeter for our job every day.
It we're podcasting for our job right now.
Where you get one chance.
That's why I'm so buttoned up on here.
One bad word, you're done forever.
So like this guy trying to just end his career like that.
Oh man, it really makes me mad.
It's gonna be if in like 10 years from now,
Jake gets a play by play job somewhere
and this happens to him and we take the owner side.
I will.
You definitely will.
Absolutely will. Jake, hype the bike and seed, shouldn't have said that the owner side. I will. I will. Absolutely. Absolutely.
Well, Jake, I bet I've had a good seat.
Shouldn't have said that.
John Angelos gives you a call today.
Yeah.
The whole team walked out because they all were they're standing in
unison with Kevin Brown.
Jake, we need you to step up and be played by play for the Baltimore
Orioles.
What do you say?
No.
You turn it down.
What?
Wow.
It's only got one shot.
You said it.
Yeah.
Yeah. You're.
This is your only job. I respect it. It's contradicting what I say it's only got one shot. Yeah, yeah
Contradicting what I say I don't believe any young broadcaster reaches out for vice I'm like they're like what's the one thing I say never say no to an opportunity so that's right against that
But rules are meant to be broken. Oh
Back boy, you're like Steve jobs over there first rule break all all the rules. But more morally, this is his job.
Yeah.
So Jake, are you gonna call the person that takes his job?
Always a scab.
Well, he's gonna be back.
Yeah, he's gonna be back.
So would you?
If someone took his job, would you call him a scab?
Either way, the Orioles are an awesome story.
That's a college.
Camden has been packed.
He looks sick.
They have a very fun young team.
Right.
And I think actually even more so
that people are gonna root for this team
because they know the history of the Angelo
so that their window is so small
because as soon as they start having to pay people,
they'll just start trading them.
They'll trade them while they have them.
So it's like, this is the time.
I'm really, I want the Orioles to do.
If they get eliminated,
people are gonna be like,
good thing, not guys not getting your in.
Yeah, but that would actually, that would be so funny
if they win the World Series and then they hand
the trophy right to John Angelus.
He's like the big hero.
Yeah, yeah.
Okay, good hot sea, that delivered Jake.
What's your cool throne?
My cool throne's Richard Sherman.
Oh, okay.
He is joining Skip Bayless, I'm gonna just undisputed.
Let's go.
And Elaine, as I think we predicted that on part of my take right so
They're going with a Steve and a Smith model, which is just like let's roll out a bunch of cannon fodder for skip bailists
Just mo down day in day out rotating cast of guests. That's what it's gonna be now some people say that's because nobody actually wants to work with skip
Palis so they had to find like five different people trying to get into the biz
I would say that's not the case. I would say that Lil Wayne and Skip Bayless are great friends.
And so that's gonna be a great show.
Richard Sherman and Skip Bayless have some history too.
Do you remember that?
Yeah.
I do not.
Skip Bayless has his history with everyone.
He does. He's got beef.
Skip Bayless called Sherman out on first take, like 10 years ago.
And then Richard Sherman was like Skip Bayless,
like you've never played football in your life I'm more accomplished than you are
I've done more in my short career than you have they've got there's some true animosity
which I was perfect for it yeah perfect for it all right good hot seat cool throne hank
back to the regular one my hot seat is Shohei Othani oh oh he sucks right he Drake a week ago
was spotted out seeing a show
hey, Otoni Jersey.
Oh, no.
And since then, he's gone two for 12.
Oh, no.
So the Drake curse is back.
Could have been the cool throne,
putting show in the hot seat.
Show for right?
You guys tried to drink some last week.
He then was player of the game twice in one day.
Well, it's, we tried to,
you guys don't have to juice the Drake has.
We tried to find a way to, to be show Hey haters and we couldn't even come
It's similar to when we tried to be Steph Curry haters and all we could come up with with his mouth guard and his posture
Yeah, his posture so no Kevin Durant's a posture. Yeah, but yeah, there's some guys that are just universally loved and show
Hey stays that hopefully Drake doesn't fuck it up too bad
I would say show Hayes afraid of playing in a major market
up too bad. I would say, show he's afraid of playing in a major market. Hmm. Hmm. Hmm.
He's in an orange. I know he's in an. Yeah. He's an orange company.
Learn maps, bro. What's what's their team name? Well, that's just they're just trying
to get market shares. Yeah. No way they play. He lives in suburbs.
You can live in the suburbs of playing LA. He plays like some does.
Let's look up where where's the angel stadium let's look at

We're bowling today, live stream.
Yep, plug god, I am the plug god, that's what they call me.
Uh, there's so far outside of Los Angeles.
But I plug, see, I'm more of like a plug
when I don't have anything else for a cool throne.
That's like a break in case of emergency.
Yeah, yeah.
Jake's just addicted to plugging. Okay, God forbid.
You didn't get in hate.
In hate.
Our sponsors.
In hate's defense, he had no idea we were going to take a show for Wednesday.
Well, you said we were going to do it tonight and then like two seconds ago, you're like, let's
just do a lot of cool throwing.
Well, no, we, no, no.
That's, that's what we're going to do this all the time.
Yeah, that was the plan the whole time.
You improvised one second, you know, whatever.
No, no, we always said we were going to tape the beginning of the show after hard knocks.
All right, sorry. My cool throwing is shorts. Okay, yeah, we always said we were going to tape the beginning of the show after hard nights.

I'm a consistently okay bowler if there's anyone who's in this tournament who can bowl in like the 170s

Wait Hank, where is it streaming is on barstable YouTube barstable YouTube? It's with Bolero. Bolero. I love Bolero
Love Bolero best food and beverage game in the industry.
Yes.
Okay, PFT, your hot sea cool throne.
My hot seat is the box, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Yes.
They just released their depth chart and it is fucking hilarious.
At the quarterback position, they have Baker Mayfield or Kyle Trask listed as QB1.
Love it.
The letters O-R appear on a depth chart for maybe the first time ever.
So it's like you have two quarterbacks, you don't have one.
This is some college football shit.
I would like to see them run some formations where it's both Baker and Kyle on the field
at the same time.
Yeah.
Has any team ever done a two quarterback system?
Uh, the dolphins.
Yeah, Wildcat.
Wildcat, no, that's running backs.
Yeah. Running backs. They're playing quarterback. Yeah, wild cat. Wild cat, no, that's running backs. So running backs.
Yeah.
But they're playing quarterback.
Yeah.
Kind of.
Did you just always ran the ball?
Yeah.
But yeah, the bus.
No, yeah, they always ran the ball.
I feel like this is, I feel like this is bad news for Baker.
Because most people assume that Baker was going to be QB1, right?
The or or Kyle.
Yeah.
This is telling me that Baker, they want Baker to be the QB1,
but he's stonking training camp,
so they're like, well, we can't demote him yet.
So we'll just make it an or.
Yeah.
We should release a depth chart before every PMT.
Okay.
Hank or golf.
We don't know.
Why not both?
Okay.
Your cool throw?
My cool throw is sports documentaries. Yeah. Because Johnny Manzell untold is out.
This is not a plug. We got to watch. I'm just, I'm just saying
straight up the untold documentary series on Netflix. Awesome.
All of them shorter than the quarterback one. Oh, yeah, I
think it's just it's a movie. So we should we'll review it. Let's
say Monday. Yeah. Give everyone, give everyone a few days.
Monday will review the Johnny Manzell. Yeah. Just one episode. Just, yeah, some movies. So I don't know if you've
watched it. But they did one about the trash pandas, the minor league hockey team. Yeah.
That one kicks ass. They did one about Manzitao. Yeah. The trash band is, is that not the trash
pandas? No, the trashers. The trashers. That's right. That'sers, that's right. That's a baseball. You're talking about raccoons.
Yeah.
Yeah.
The thrashers.
Talk about the animal.
The minor league hockey one.
The damberry thrashers.
Yeah, the M1 one was really good.
M1 was great.
Manitio was good.
And they got me to care about an Australian yachting team.
I was like, fuck the New York yacht club.
I just looked it up.
I'm the most really for life.
One hour, 12 minutes.
Okay, so Monday, that's easy.
Everyone can do that.
Monday will finish the show instead of a Monday reading.
We'll do the Johnny Men's L document.
I've tried to watch the QB show three times
and fall asleep by the end of every episode.
You know what I don't like about the QB show?
Is just how positive it is.
I'm just like, I wanna watch something and have a villain.
There's no villain in it.
It's like Kirk Cousins, nice as human being on the planet.
They also should release it like late February
when you have that like first hit of withdrawal
because right now we're so, I'm so much into like next season
that I don't really care about last season.
Yeah.
All right, my hot seat, I can't believe we didn't talk
about it on Sunday night, but Carson Wentz.
Carson Wentz released a picture of him training. I think it came out Monday Wentz. Carson Wentz released a picture of him training.
I think he came out Monday.
It might have, he released a picture of him training.
He's wearing a, what is it, Colts?
No, Eagles helmet.
Colts are redskins, commanders, Jersey, and Colts shorts.
And he's basically, he's a human parlay.
He's a Valtron of failure.
Yeah, he's walking around being like,
I'm ready to go.
I'm gonna be back in it.
I got in a debate about backup quarterbacks.
I still think Carson went
even though he is better than a lot of backup quarterbacks.
Probably doesn't fill the backup quarterback role very well.
No, you want a backup quarterback to be able to
just seamlessly fill into any situation.
You want a backup quarterback who will tread water.
If you, if basically your backup quarterback is there
to make your starter better and not threaten your starter,
like be like, ooh, looking over my shoulder.
And also you want your backup quarterback
to be able to fill in for one game.
If it's more than one or two games,
your season's fucked regardless.
Yeah, like, cool, McCoy.
Right, maybe the perfect backup formula.
People were saying, oh, he,
Carson Wentz is better than Chase Daniel.
And my point is, Chase Daniel is way better than Carson Wentz
at the role of backup.
Yeah.
I'd say that Kyle Trask is the best or quarterback in the NFL,
but probably not a backup quarterback.
Yes.
Actually, it'd be interesting to look up.
Has there ever been a quarterback drafted in the top 10
that has gone on to become a great backup?
Like great long-term backup quarterback. in the top 10 that has gone on to become a great backup.
Like great long-term backup quarterback. Blake Portals.
Blake Portals.
Wait, say it again.
A highly drafted, like top 10 quarterback,
maybe top five will say.
That's lost the starting job,
and then gone on to have a long career
as a great backup quarterback.
Cause it is a good skill set.
Yeah, but you don't really see a lot of high drafted guys end up being backups.
That's what I'm saying.
Yeah, right.
No, I know exactly what you're saying.
You're right.
Wasn't Vic a backup for the Eagles at first?
He was a backup.
But then he ended up being a star.
I mean, I mean, like he was like starter and weight.
Yeah.
Yeah. I don't know. Carson like, you was like starter and weight. Yeah. Yeah.
I don't know.
Carson Paul.
No, no, no.
I was just saying,
Carl Warden was good,
but he wasn't a highly dry.
He was like fourth rounder.
Marcus Mariotta backed up.
Yeah, Marcus Mariotta.
Yeah, that's a good call.
Marcus Mariotta.
I don't wanna say that,
I'm talking.
No, he's on the eagles now.
So the eagles now.
Yeah, he's the eagles back up.
Yeah, no, but Jake said,
yeah, that's a car last year.
It was just, yeah, yeah.
Correct him. Yeah, that might be,
that might be a call. All right, my insult fact, I'm sorry. Yeah, my cool thrown.
I have two of them. The first is Phil Mikkelson. I don't know if you guys saw this clip.
I'll play it real quick, but I love Phil Mikkelson, even though everything that goes along with
Phil Mikkelson. But this is him in Bryson, the Shamboh playing a practice round and him
going up to Bryson beforehand.
him in Bryson to Shambow playing a practice round and him going up to Bryson beforehand. 24.
We're playing for.
I haven't thought about that.
Yeah, thought about it.
Well, what are you thinking about?
Okay, well, Kevin, I'll play you guys.
You know, on a bond.
We'll play at nine holes for G.
Perfect.
Straight best ball.
Perfect.
And when you're down, when you're closed out, you can press for half.
Not the full.
Not the full. Okay, so you're closed out, you can press for half. Not the full, not the full.
Okay, so you gotta win the match to win.
Yeah, and if you want, what we'll do is we'll go 28,
if you shoot 28 best Paul, it's double.
Perfect, I love that.
Okay, that's a point of about our 28 or better.
He's playing a lot more than.
Phil just absolutely steamrolled him in that new go-shake.
He's like, Phil's like, have you given me a thought to it?
Oh, I have, here's exactly what we're gonna do that.
And you could probably ride it off like 10 different formats.
But his shock at bright, be like,
what are you thinking about
if you're not thinking about gambling right now?
Like what is going through your head?
That's like breathing.
And then yeah, just rattles off.
And then, and he also said,
he said he never plays for more than that,
which is just a lie.
That's a lie.
And in true gamblers fashion,
Phil just kept on adding like, double or nothing.
This and like you
can you can push for half if you're shooting under 28 double G like it's I love Phil for that
yeah I love he's got he's got a bankroll now yeah feels free he can gamble as much as he wants
and then my other cool thrown his names because Twitter account named Bobby tweeted this the other
day about is actual names of kids playing in the Little League World Series game on ESPN right now
The names are listed fuller carver
Hudson Harper
Knox nants
Cabot Clark
Colton Clayton
And case and wrote it's a lot of liberation. I
Names are getting wild. There's not of the e-ins in there. I
It's a lot of alliteration. I, names are getting wild.
There's a lot of e-ins in there.
I, Knox Dance is a quarterback.
He's, he's a quarterback I will bet on,
mid, you know, midweek, Maxion.
Great, let's run through all the names again
and then we'll just assign them fictional job titles.
Yeah.
Fuller Carver.
Uh, he is a co-head lawyer that works for his dad's firm.
Mm-hmm.
Hudson Harper, he got arrested for murder in South Carolina.
Yep.
Knox Dance, I think is a QB.
Yep.
Uh, I think Cabot Clark, uh, Cabot Clark, Wine Maker.
Yep.
Fail doctor.

Yep.
Colton Clayton seems like just a sick, someone replied and it was spot on a sick Iowa tight end.
Yeah, Colton Clayton.
Yeah, that's fair.
And then Kason Rodin.
Finance.
Last off the bench for the water dogs.
Oh, yeah, definitely.
Yeah, a guy that we will eventually want to cut from our team.
Kason Rodin.
But yeah, names are on the cool throne.
Okay, should we get to our interview?
We got a great interview with Mad Olson.
People in Asimfus are more baseball.
Well, guess what?
We found a guy who dressed up as us for Halloween.
AWL, he came in 730 on a Friday night.
So shout out to Mad Olson.
He also was just, I think he's hit a home run
every game since he's come on.
He is.
Yeah, future Hall family.
He's on team Evan and Shane and Dinger's only.
Yeah, he's a great, great dude.
So awesome interview with him.
You think we're ever gonna get somebody that dresses up
as us for Halloween and the guy dresses up as me
and the girl dresses up as you?
No, probably not.
Probably not.
This was a guy, guy, combo.
Oh, it was?
Yeah.
It was guy, guy, combo.
Oh, okay.
Good, good.
So Matt Olson was me and then his friend was you love it

Okay, we now welcome on a very special guest in person. It is Atlanta Braves
All-Star two-time all-Star
Mad Olson.
I'll say this too.
Future Hall of Famer, Mad Olson.
Are we doing there?
I was looking at the numbers.
And if you stay healthy, your future Hall of Famer.
Wow, that's throwing a lot on me right out the gate.
I'm pretty sure it's that,
because never jinxed anything in a state.
No, no, no, no, I'm really aware of that.
So I'll probably have a great career from.
Yeah, so Matt, it was very funny.
We were doing, I don't know if you listened to our baseball draft,
but we did our Dinger's Only League and our producer Shane and Evan
picked you and someone was like, you know, Matt Olson's an AWL.
I was like, what?
How do you know that?
And then we looked and you had dressed up as us
for Halloween a few years ago.
Yep, so I was you, it was like a last minute.
We got to throw something together for Halloween
where me and my buddies listened to PMT
and I was like, shit, I'll just get a mustache
and some see through glasses and throw it together.
But my buddy did remind me that somebody stopped me that night and asked me if I was Jeff
Riedomer.
Oh no!
So, I don't know if that says more about me or you.
I did also listen to that dinner's only drafts.
So I do have a slight bone to pick with Hank.
Okay, alright.
Let's get it out. Yeah.
I do believe it was never heard of him when when the draft
pick happened. Well, I mean, Hank's a pretty big seam head. He
knows every player. And then and then he found out that I
listened to the podcast and he quickly changed his opinion.
So it's funny how that works for us.
We're like, oh, he likes us.
Yeah, we love him.
Yeah, we're always been maddles and guys.
That's not any baseball player.
I'm not locked in.
You'll have him done a ton of baseball, guys, right?
This is going to be big for Yellowitch.
Yeah, Yellowitch is our guy.
You're now going to be a recurring guest,
but yeah, we get a lot of tweets being like,
where the baseball podcast, so here it is.
Here we go.
I remember the, I remember the LH one from the,
the bet.
Yeah, yes, maybe some, not gonna make that one.
So, yeah, well, here's the thing.
If you ever get in the home run derby against LH,
we are going to absolutely dose you a steroids.
We're gonna make sure that that happens.
Yes, I'm gonna throw it if it's me versus him in the final.
You bet you son of a bitch.
Well, you are consistently.
I think you might though.
That's the thing.
Yeah, you would, you're sick.
I mean, if it came down to it, maybe you threw me a little coin underneath the table.
Yeah.
I would never make that bet with you though because you actually are consistently a great
home run hitter unlike Yellich who who just mysteriously had one awesome year.
Hmm, huh, interesting.
That is crazy.
I'm just saying at the numbers,
we're just looking at numbers here.
There's a big spike in a low valley, of course.
Yes, yes, yes, it's interesting.
But you guys drove into that.
Yeah, we did, we doubted him to the point where he was like,
it almost won't you guys make some dumb bet for me.
He's almost more of a sicko than we are
for even offering that the fact that he wants it to happen.
Was it his idea?
No, it's a long story.
There was a porn that came out featuring Christian Yelich.
There was a guy that looked a lot like Christian Yelich.
He says that it wasn't him.
Was he eating ass or getting his ass standing up?
Yeah, yeah.
I think he was eating ass, she was standing up.
And he looked, he'd get tagged in it constantly.
To the point where he had to be like,
it's not me guys.
Like, please stop saying it's me.
So, yeah, that was a dumb move.
But we are happy you're here.
I guess, I mean, since we're talking about Dinger's only,
I'll do just a dumb question.
How awesome is it to hit a denger in Major League baseball?
Because what are you two 39, 239?
Total?
Yeah, I don't know.
I know I hit my 200 this year at some point.
May two 17, but either way, you're hitting a lot.
Yeah, it's a good feeling.
I mean, you know, I would probably say that's the peak
and the sport of being able to get one off a guy,
especially now that the A's have broken up a little bit,
I've had a chance to face some old teammates
and I've gotten a couple of them, Chris Bassett.
I was a fun one to get,
because we'd talk a lot of shit to each other.
So it's fun when you can leave the yard,
it's even more fun when
you got a little story behind it talking shit to somebody. Yeah, so you have a favorite
tinger? Yeah, I think my favorite is probably last year. We played a series against the
Metts at the end of the year where we had to, we had to basically sweep them to win the
division. And night one, we faced Diggar on. And first ending I think it was,
Riley hit a homeroom front of me
and I went back to back with him
and I feel like it kinda set the tone
for the series, we ended up sweeping them.
Yeah, when you do that,
do you imagine Frank the tank watching
and just like having an actual aneurysm?
Like if you hit a homeroom and get some bets,
are you thinking yourself,
how big is the hole that Frank the tank just chewed through his shirt?
We I'll say that
The videos were checked
After some games last year so the more we learn Frank the tank is is somehow like the most famous person at barstool and
Every NLE's team uses Frank the tank his motivation. Yeah're like, how much, how pissed off can we get Frank?
Yeah, especially, especially with like the kind of the way
it went for us at that end last year
where they had the big lead and then we ended up
winning the division.
Yeah.
There were some dudes in the club house
who were pretty tuned in.
Does that ever be credible?
Okay, this is really dumb to even ask this,
but I am serious.
Was there an element of Frank before the collapse happened
when he spelled out how the Metz were going to collapse,
right, and everybody else was like,
you're full of shit Frank,
the Metz are so far ahead right now.
But he, to the law, to the letter the law,
said exactly what the Metz were going to do
before they did it, and what the braves were gonna do
before they did it.
Was there any motivation where you guys saw them? You're like, you know what, I think what the braves we're gonna do before they did it. Was there any motivation where you got something?
You're like, you know what?
I think we can do it.
Frank says that we can do it.
I don't know if you gave us extra motivation,
but I remember seeing a clip of different dudes saying
that like the division is over or something like that.
It was in July when they had the food.
Oh no.
You know, I mean, it's not like we needed any.
Yeah. Huge motivation or anything like that,
but it's funny to kind of look back on it.
I mean, the fact, I'm just giggling right now
because the idea that you're in a pennant race
and you're trying to catch the match, you're in New York,
you have a huge game, you beat DeGrom,
and then the first thing you do when you go to the locker room
is pull up Frank the tank's Twitter and just laugh. Yeah, because just laugh Yeah, I mean everybody watches you know the bar� will stuff and everything and I mean it's when he gets on his rants
It's it's a pretty must-see TV. Yeah, it's incredible
You mentioned going back to back to Riley. Did you know fun stat I just saw today
That you and Riley have combined for back-to-back home runs in a game in April,
May, June, July, and August the season.
The only teammates in Major League Baseball history to have back-to-back home runs in a game
in five straight months in a single season.
That's crazy.
That's crazy.
I didn't know that.
Back-to-back home runs.
That's got to be a pretty cool feeling, too.
Like, is it cooler for the second guy or the first guy? I think it's probably, it's probably cooler for the second guy because, but it's probably
harder for the first, like you can't get the first without, or you can't get the second
without getting the first guy. The first guy, the first guy usually gets pitches to hit
because the second guy is also a dinger threat too, right? I will say, hitting after a
Homer is a tough gig sometimes. You know true. Fans are still sitting up, they're playing the music still.
Nobody's watching them to dug out.
Pitcher's pissed.
You're getting like, is 100-m an hour fastball?
You're getting this dirty shit because he doesn't want to give up another.
So, that's a pretty cool stat.
Yeah.
What, so the braves are incredible this year.
You guys, it feels like every night, you're just a pitcher's nightmare. Do you guys feel that in the lineup where you're like everyone can hit and and is it does it
Make motivate you to like be even better because you know that everyone around you don't want to let them down
I don't think no, I don't think it works that way. I think it's it's almost the opposite where you don't like
It's okay to have a shitty night in our lineup, you know There's a lot of lineups in the league that you know one or two guys are doing
it most every night.
Right.
If they're scoring a lot like you know the three or four whole hitters is doing the damage
and you know hitting two homers or whatever.
But it's like I can go up and punch out four times and or land RCA and Mike Harris are eight and nine hitters
can have six RBI's together.
So I kind of feel like it takes some of the pressure off.
I mean, honestly, we got Ronald Cunier, the stuff that he's doing at the top of the line
up is stupid.
Yeah.
I was talking to somebody about it the other day.
He's almost like when you go golf with a scratch golfer.
Like, you see the big home runzy hits, the numbers he's putting up, it's hitting what,
340 now, he went 340, he's probably in like 340, 50 stolen bases.
But it's like at the end of the game, you're like, what did Ronald do today?
And you check and it's like, oh shit,
he went three for five and had two stolen bases
and three RBI.
It's just like when you go golf with a scratch golf,
you're like, he didn't do anything that cool.
He just hit every fairway, hit every green.
I wouldn't know if I made a burn.
Yeah, but he makes it all look easy.
It's so, I mean, it sounds like you guys
are good teammates to each other
because I guess the question is more,
like if I were in the braves lineup
and I was like hitting 50 dingers, I'd be giving everyone shit who didn't hit 50 dingers but
sounds like you guys have each other's back.
No, no, we're not doing that.
Somebody might have said something to Mike Harris the other day about him being the only
one in single digit homers but yeah he hit two that night and say that.
There you go, that works too.
Yeah, I love that.
So if you do go over for one night
and you go over for the next night,
how soon do you start to think yourself,
I gotta change something up,
I gotta, like you start to think maybe it's the bad extents,
maybe it's just like, I don't know,
have a different pregame meal.
When do you start to think like,
okay time for a change?
Yeah, I mean, actual change,
like actually diving in and doing baseball change,
probably not that quickly, but I'm eating something different or, you know, putting my socks
on a different way. Everybody says they're not superstitious. I think that's cronk or shit.
Yeah, you get so much time where you're just like waiting around. Exactly. Your mind works
too much. Yeah, everybody takes the way it off on deck a certain way
It's like you can tell me you're not superstitious doing doing stuff every way, but yeah, I'll mix that kind of stuff up
Actual actual dive in the baseball mix it up. We're gonna give it a little more time
Do you know your longest slump?
Do not okay, that's good. No, I don't
But I was always I mean, I'm
always amazed by baseball players because the mental toughness it takes to play the game
and two 70 hitters is a good hitter right now in today's game where it's like, if I, if
I didn't get a hit for a week, I would just be like, I'm going to retire. I'm never going
to get a hit again. Yeah. I mean, a week, a week, I would just be like, I'm gonna retire. I'm never gonna get a hit again. Yeah, I mean, a week, a week,
I would probably be there a little bit
if you're going over.
I'm along this over stretch.
I don't think is that crazy, but.
I'm gonna look it up right now.
Yeah, look it up.
I hope it's like three weeks.
I'm gonna be, I'm gonna selling an idiot
when you're like, you're over 75.
Yeah.
But, no, you know, it's part of it as stupid and cliche as it is.
It's a long ass season.
All the ups and downs will kind of level out at some point.
Yeah, do you get bored?
During a baseball season, for sure.
Yeah, is that August, right now, are you bored?
Well, luckily we're winning and we got a we got a pretty fun team.
So that helps a little bit of it, but just the monotony of of a baseball season is tough.
You know, it's even with a bigger bases that doesn't help out.
Yeah, the bigger bases in the pitch clock makes a lot better.
So games are so much quicker.
Yeah. But no, there, there's a point much quicker. Yeah, but
No, there's a point like I said luckily we're winning
Yeah, I'd feel bad if we were about to lose our 100th game and you get
150 games in or so it's like just get the shit over with but yeah
We got a good squad and we have a lot of fun with it. All right, so I'm looking it up. I couldn't find your longest
Slump but it says that you can't hit a slider, is that true?
Is that right?
Yeah.
Well, I did take a slider right down the middle today earlier,
so it could be.
Okay, yeah, so you bet it's trending.
It's time to taping, the braves did beat the Cubs,
eights and nothing today.
All right, so was that, that was off Hendrix?
That was after.
Yeah, when that, or when Eski, you heard.
Yeah, came in, yeah.
So facing a guy like Hendrix, though,
we were talking about it right, whereas you walked in.
Is it weird to face a guy like that
who his velocity is so different
than everyone else you go up against?
Is he like rare enough that that's why it works?
Yeah, yeah, and I mean, look at it,
he's got like a career, three, five,
CRA, so the dude's been doing it, but yeah, I mean, I feel like we just faced a
week straight of guys throwing 95 to 100, and then you get up, and Hendrix is floating
80 mile an hour changeups in there, just like shit, you don't see anymore.
Right.
And it is, it's almost like, it's so crazy that it's effective.
Yeah, I mean, you guys did hit him well today. Who's almost like it's so crazy that it's effective. Yeah. I mean,
you guys did hit him while today. Who's the who's got the nastiest stuff for you? Uh, I'm
O for off Garrett Cole. I haven't, I haven't faced him in a while. I was when I was in Oakland. I
was facing a good bit in the Houston days. And I don't, I don't know the exact numbers but it's around over 20 with about 15
punches so I'm gonna need to I'm gonna need to get back out there and try to fix that.
We don't want to see me in the postseason this year that's the good news.
Yeah.
What is there a picture that you have there number?
I'm I gotta be careful about this.
I don't I don't want to jinx it.
I think I've I think I've had pretty good,
there's actually a guy which is weird.
Alex Claudio, who is a submarine.
What team?
There's.
Don't think so.
Okay.
He was with a Rangers for a while and angels.
But he's bru, he's.
Brothers now.
Okay, there you go, Hank.
He's a side arm lefty.
And I think at one point I was like seven for seven off the guy
and just couldn't stop just crushing him, which is weird.
That is weird.
They always bring him in.
I'm like, are y'all fucking checking the numbers?
Yeah, I'm crushing this dude.
Right. You don't see too many submarine pictures anymore. I feel like we use
them more back in the 90s. Like every team had one submarine guy.
Yeah. But is that that much different seeing like where the ball comes out of
its hands? Is it like fuck up your entire process of identifying what
pitches coming? Yeah, it does. And for whatever reason now most of the
submarine guys that are left are throwing like 95
to now.
It's the Shreiber dude with Boston and Tyler Rogers guy with San Francisco is just crazy
weird slide.
It's like, yeah, it's kind of like Hendrix.
It's just stuff you don't see all the time.
So it's so backwards that it throws you off.
Yeah.
I wanted to talk about your career for a second
and the start of it.
So you were gonna play at Vanderbilt
and then you decided to go straight to the minors.
So what was that decision like?
Because a lot of guys do end up playing in college baseball
if they have that kind of offer,
especially the school like Vanderbilt,
but what made you decide like,
hey, I'm just gonna go straight to the minors here.
I don't know.
I, you know, I, I'd be lying if I said that the signing bonus wasn't a part of the decision,
but it wasn't.
I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just,
I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm
just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm
just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm
just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just,
just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just
I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just,
I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just,
I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm just, I'm Vanderbilt. Yeah, you get a million dollars when you're 19 years old. Yeah, that sounds pretty good.
But I mean, it was, it was, it was, it never was,
you know, the reason why I do it,
but it was more so like a, like a,
you got an opportunity to go do it,
especially as a hitter going to college
is way different than going, getting like 500 at bats.
I actually went to Booyt was constant
for his year, which sucks.
Yeah, sound, Booyt Wisconsin.
Booyt is the sound a fart makes in a toilet.
Booyt?
Yeah, say that loud.
It is.
It's not, and it's pretty close to what the city looks like.
Yeah, the Booyt snappers you played for, you played for Stockton.
That's not far from Matt Asad.
Yeah, Stockton ports, Midland Madison. Yeah, yeah, yeah, Stockton ports midland rock
hounds and the Nashville set.
Where's the midland rock hounds at?
Midland, Texas. Okay.
Where the Stockton ports?
Stockton, California. Okay.
That's it. You're on the Oregon California. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.
Was that fun on the bus? Yeah. Was it, was there any element of mind
to be baseball that was fun for you? Um,
I think in the, in the moment it was it was there any element of minor league baseball those fun for you um i think in the in the moment it was because we we get on the bus and you know at times we do a big beer bus everybody play cards and we thought it was cool to to drive 12 hours
through the night and then play the next day but looking back it's like
that's fucking brutal yeah seriously i don't know how minor leaders do it. So one was the moment,
was there like a special moment when you got called up
did they do like surprise video or anything?
No, it was actually, it was kind of lame.
We just finished our triple A season
and you know they do the set time and call up.
And we lost in our playoffs.
And the triple A managers came up as like,
don't pack your shit to go home.
You're going to beat the team.
So, I mean, it was a cool moment.
Yeah.
It wasn't like all these videos you're seeing.
Yeah, where guys are set up in the manager's office
and people are crying.
Now, did you get called up right when you thought
you were about to get called up
or was there a stretch where you're like,
why have I not been called up?
No, no, I thought it was about right.
I actually got, I started back in AAA
after I got called up for that September.
And I think about halfway through that year,
I was a little bit like, you know,
I think I'm ready. I know for it. It's time to go, but we had Yonder Alons of there,
he was going off. So I actually came up and I was playing right field, which I
don't know if you've seen me play, but I'm slow to shit. I've no business being
in the outfield. I'm sure all the pitchers were pissed. It is the position that they
just throw guys where they're just like, allfield. I'm sure all the pitchers were pissed. It is the position that they just throw guys
where they're just like, all right.
I played a lot of right field growing up here.
Yeah, well, yeah, I think the nine year old in right field
is always like the worst guy.
They're like, hey, just go stand out there
and don't fuck it up.
Yeah, right.
Pretty much.
But yeah, it was a cool story.
And you always remember this. cool story and you know you always
Yeah, and you get to the A's and I mean we we have taken the side of A's fans on this podcast
We're a fuck John Fisher podcast. I know you probably can't talk about it, but fuck John for fuck them, right? Yeah
But fuck fuck John Fisher. Yeah, right his face. I love A's. I love them. You will not say anything we'll say for the fan bases.
I love them. I want to fuck them in their face. I love them so much, but they're their owners of
a piece of shit. But playing for that team, like, was there ever a time when the fan support was like,
you felt like maybe this might work out? Maybe the athletics are gonna stay in Oakland?
Yeah, I thought I think a lot of us thought that we were gonna be kind of like the dudes
to flip the script a little bit because everybody that got traded before us and, you know,
I think it was like the Donaldson, Cesspita's wave right before us.
All those guys got traded.
They hit the reset button.
We came up and it was like me, Chapman, Simian, who's from the Bay Area.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Stargurs like Chris Bass at Sean and I, you know, a bunch of dudes.
We won 97 games back to back years with the Astero's on our division.
And I think it became like, all right, we're going to do this.
We're going to do the ones to stay and
Obviously, you know sitting here now is they just look at it as a little as a money maker And yeah, I think the decision was probably already made it was just a matter of time at that point
Did Billy being ever calling into his office to say?
Like hey, I really like how tall your knees are and give a small strike so that's why I called you
Yeah, like a weird thing for you that he liked?
Billy is a weird guy, but he was always good.
He did always crush candy like the movie,
but no, he didn't give me anything too weird.
He did one time, I was getting a little froggy
with trying to steal bases,
and I got thrown out third one time,
trying to like, time up a dude.
And I saw him in the lunch line the next day
and he just like, look at me, he was like,
hey, I looked over and I was like,
what the fuck was that?
And I was like, what are you talking about?
Like, had him timed up and he's like,
don't do that shit again.
No, it's like, all right.
Did you, did you feel a little special
being like, I'm a Billy being draft pick?
Like he knowing his history of draft picks and just how he built that team.
Yeah, you buy, I mean, you buy into a little bit, you know, you kind of feel like the misfits.
I mean, you go and play at the Coliseum, you feel like, you know, one thing's not like the other here
when you go play at other stadiums.
Yeah. It almost becomes something that you rally behind a little bit, but no, Billy was good. GM was always good
to us, David Forrest, you know, coached staff was always good. We had a good team just
when the fans are good there, they're the best. Yeah. Like those teams when they get when
they get good, the guys playing the saxophone and the outfit and just like they, it just so it breaks my heart whenever a team leaves a city.
Yeah, it's like nowhere you've ever seen because nobody,
all the fans, they just don't give a shit.
I mean, they don't give a shit about what they're doing.
They give a shit about the game.
Right.
It's so crazy.
It's like a college football game,
but you're playing Major League Baseball in a way.
So it is cool.
So it's kind of sad to see what's going on there.
Yeah, I've got beautiful grass in the outfield there too.
They do.
They're like the best looking field.
They do.
The Kelly greens.
Yeah, the colors are great.
Kind of like the Eagles.
Eagles Kelly greens.
They got a great like the a font is great.
And the elephant.
It's just great.
Yeah, it's sad.
So when you got traded to the Braves,
you're from the Atlanta area.
So you probably were really pumped.
Did you know they were gonna give you
that fat contract right away?
Cause it was like 24 hours, right?
Yeah, it was quick.
I didn't know.
I mean, that's awesome.
That's a good better.
Well, time back today is, I mean,
I was pretty open with with my agent
and they were pretty open with him that I was open to signing something long-term. I was like, you know, I sure you want to you want to
Get fair market, but I just wanted to have you know some some
You know a long-term deal and and you know go out and play and so my so my agent knew it was something that I was open to.
So when the trade happened, Alex got on it pretty quick.
He's, when he gets worked up about something,
he gets on it and goes, as you see,
all the guys we have signed now.
So it wasn't too hard to convince me
to come to the hometown and sign for eight years.
They just won the World Series, so it's a good team.
A bunch of young dudes like Ozzy and Dancer was there at the time and Ron Old and so it
was kind of a no brainer.
It's got to be the best 24 hours because you got traded and then 24 hours later you signed
to 8-year deal
188. Yeah, it was pretty sweet. It was it was a little it was a little weird walking in the clubhouse because I actually did the
Like press release before
Meeting the dudes really so oh so they saw you get paid and then you had to walk in the clubhouse Yeah, which not like it matter like nobody said anything, but it's just like still is a lot
Yeah, that is very awkward to be like I haven't even played with you guys
Yeah, was there any weirdness about like obviously a
Brave Sands love you that you're your fan favorite now, but like at the time they were kind of going through
Their own emotional drama with a Freddie Freeman stuff, right?
And so that's what they were thinking about.
It's like, oh, I love Freddie.
And of course they should love Freddie,
like Freddie meant a lot to the city.
But when you come in, it's like you're the outside guy,
even though you're a hometown guy, right?
Was that weird at first?
Like trying to figure out how you fit in there
and figuring out how the fans were gonna eventually,
like, are they ever gonna come on and be on my side?
Are they gonna be just like asking about Freddie this whole time? Yeah, I think there was a tad of it. Obviously, when a guy is there that long, and he's going to be a
Hall of Famer, I mean, dude's career 300 hitter with all the
accolades that he's gotten, and he came up with the braves.
There's going to be that stuff.
Frankly, this whole process, I knew I was going to trade it for
Moklyn, and I was going to be a little bit more confident about up with the braves. You know, there's gonna be that stuff. I, frankly, this whole process, you know,
I knew I was gonna trade it from Oakland
and I thought it was, I think it was
LA didn't have first baseman and Rizzo
hadn't resigned with the Yankees.
And so, I mean, we were sitting there
just during the lockout and I really didn't think
Atlanta was really an option.
I thought they were just going to resign Freddie
and get along with it.
Once that process started dragging out a little bit,
I guess it became a little more in our head
that it could be possible.
And then once it happened, it was the coolest thing ever.
But the way I look at it is is is the dude has done so much for Atlanta and like I said
Hall of Famer. I would be upset as a brace fan growing up and as a guy who plays for
the team who I want good fans if they were just like kicked him out the door. I'm happy that they love Freddie and he's always been super nice to me.
So it never affected what I was doing too much.
That's a good way to look at it.
To be like the team, the fan base cares so much about a guy that's given so much
the team, but like hopefully one day they'll think about me that way.
Yeah, you know, I just think they respect what he did for the city as they should.
I mean, I grew up watching Freddie when he first came up.
So I respect what he did as a brave.
So it's not like it's any sort of rift there.
And he's like I said, he's always been super good to me.
And I hear great
things about him from the guys. So another bad teammate question. Does anyone ever give
you a ship for not having a world series ring? No, and it kind of, it kind of, it kind
of pisses me off. And nobody does. Like they did the ring ceremony last year. And they
were giving out fake rings to all the fans.
And I put mine on and was like, fuck yeah, this is sick guys.
I was like so glad we got it and I was like trying to ag them on to churt me about it and nobody did.
Maybe we just weren't there yet.
They'll give it to me pretty good now, but yeah, I nobody nobody hit me too hard with it
Yeah, are you as amazed as we are when you watch the freeze run?
Yes, that guy is so fast so fast. He makes me fall down. He's so fast. We should get one of your alterations
Yeah, um Hank
Hank you should do it
Actually max yeah, we'll have max to it because he probably like break his whole face
His body would explode you just can't you can't run full speed to start. Yeah.
Every time I'm seeing him lose, the person that goes is sandbagging a little bit to start.
And then they turn it down. Because he doesn't go as fast. Yeah. Yeah.
Because he waits a little bit. But the dudes who just blow their load right right out of the gate.
Yeah. They're the ones who are bust in their ass and all. That's the best is when somebody thinks
that they've got a beat and then the freeze just runs past them
and they get so surprised that they just tripped and fall down.
They'll tie a peak.
Tie a peak.
Tie a peak, Simon.
Yeah, that should be the penalty for our fingers only,
but maybe next year.
Oh yeah.
If you lose, you have to raise the freeze.
You have to raise the freeze.
Oh man, it would be so embarrassing.
I would just try to trip him.
Yeah. I would just try to make it up and try to trip him. Yeah. I would just show him it up and try to trip him.
Well, while we're on the Bravis Park,
I don't think I've heard the full blooper story.
Well, it's a bad fuck.
And he's a bully.
And he came at you.
Oh yeah, he's coming many times.
He lives rent free in Frank's head, which is not fair.
You've never talked to him he can't talk right
no he can talk
as a mascot is a lot to the rules
who am i outing him right now
does he talk as a mascot or is he talk out when he gets a mascot head off
no i've never seen i've never seen a mascot
err
with the head off no i've never seen
but he talks
he's he's got him now.
Oh shit.
Sorry, bloopers.
That's the brew one of mascots.
But yeah, no, it's very funny.
What is blooper, do you know?
And no, I'm not sure.
Because I've been looking at him.
Is he like a dog?
Is he an alien?
I see an alien dog.
He, I'll say this big foot.
I don't know.
And this is going to bite me in the ass,
but he does do a hilarious job on social media
Like he's very very funny like it it was one of those things like whenever a new mascot comes along and they try to you know
Start beef to do this stuff. He's like all right. This is enough. He finds new ways to be funny that I actually appreciate
Like he's pretty good. Yeah, but he talks
This is good. I don't good. He's pretty good. Yeah, but he talks.
This is good.
That's how he should have said that.
I'm guessing he's about 5, 10 white guy with brown hair.
Under the, okay.
So he listen to part of my take.
Yeah, definitely.
Exactly.
Exactly.
Yeah, that's right.
And y'all's wheelhouse.
I invited him to Chicago this weekend.
And he didn't show.
He's dodging you
Yeah, well, he said he has to be invited by the team to see ever go on road games
Well, I would I mean I wouldn't ever know really yeah true
He's never he's never in he's never in full outfit on road games. Okay. Oh, so he's he there. I don't know
Interesting so he might be here right now. He could be here right now.
Are there more than one blooper? I don't think so. I think it's one guy. But I think it's one guy.
He might travel with the team. But I don't know what it looks like. So he could. It was just like
there's a blooper on the road for road games. They just contract a new guy in each city. Huh.
We'll never know. What's your slump? Yeah. Think about.
We'll never know What's your last love you think about?
It's just you and you're popping in and saying things, yeah.
You've ever seen him in the same place?
No. So wait, do you guys see, like, because he runs out, he tries to make it all about himself.
He's got a little like dabbo swinging in him where he like comes out with the flag or you guys ever like,
come on, dude, you didn't do anything.
No, we like it. He's pretty good.
I think he does a good job.
As far as mascots go think he does a good job. As far as mascots
go, he does a good job. I've always, I've always liked him and the, the Astros mascot.
Does a good job. Yes, Astros mask on. Are you underwear? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I like
to fill the fanatic too. Yeah. He's good. San Diego chicken. Is that cast all around?
Chicken. Yeah. Yeah. I don't think San Diego chicken. Yeah. No, Bluebe does a good job. He
hurts me to say it, but he does a good job
But now that I know that he talks as the mascot he now is I think he's ineligible for mascot hall fit
You think it's gonna get fired. Yeah, I mean you can't talk in the mascot costume. You can't do that
I feel like such a piece of shit if he got fired
If he gets fired for this exact moment, I'll hire him. Okay, that's fair
That is fair You're gonna see fired to Will Haram. Okay, that is fair.
We've hired people for way less.
Oh yeah, way way less.
Just making up for stuff that you've done.
Yeah, we've hired people for nothing.
So Frank got hired, well Frank was,
I mean Frank is all star,
but Frank got hired for just ranting on TV
because the New Jersey Transit made him delayed
for opening day.
That was your story. He was on the news just screaming into the camera being like they make me miss opening day
And Dave was like we got a higher this guy, but the news just said like crazy. That's
With his jeans and he was yelling like incompetent incompetent and Dave was like you're high
Well, we found out the best part about Frank is when we looked into who he was
He had been running a website for 15 years updating it daily called sportsy cycle pdia
He basically created wikipedia before wikipedia
He and like no one was noticing,
but he was just addicted to the grind.
So he had just been updating his website.
Like all kinds of sports,
he's just keeping everything up today.
Like he does this day in sports almost every day.
And he had been doing that when nobody was reading
his website.
So it's like, yeah, we got higher this guy.
He's already doing the job for free.
Yeah, right?
We're going.
We're going to be fairly impossible to get around.
For some, the frustration was overwhelming.
Georgia Transit is the absolute worst!
I'm not going to get to my game now because we are
incompetent. I told Chuck, he's
checking, he's checking, he's checking,
and then I got to my game and he's
going to change that one. He's not going to
get to his one. He was, he was, he was, he was,
he was so good. He was so good. He was so good.
It's the best story ever. Frank is, I mean, Frank is, I love Frank probably more than most people in the world because he is the best.
He's truly authentic and you're just giving him hell all the time.
We're not going straight for him but like I said some guys will check in after a good
one.
What about Mrs. Met?
Do you ever catch Mrs. Met? On the side of your eye?
I can't say I've taken any double looks at Mrs. Met,
but they're usually busy with the trumpets
and calling in at Budias or whatever,
but why are you a Mrs. Met fan?
I mean, I know the bonkless guy.
Are you a Met's guy?
No, no, I'm a national's guy.
Put on the bonkless guy. Yeah, but are you a Mets guy? No, no, I'm a national's guy. Put on the bonkless.
Yeah, but I can appreciate a good Mets guy when I see one.
And Mrs. Metch, she's, she, she follows our name.
She's got a lot of power.
Yeah, you can tell she's got a wording track power as well, Giver.
All right, I had a couple last questions.
That was my sweet statement.
I just appreciate the work she does.
You're knocking out of the park respectfully.
Yeah.
A couple last questions.
Since you are an AWL and you listen to part of my take,
how dumb do we sound when we talk baseball?
No, no, you're all pretty good.
That was really nice of you, because I know that's not.
Well, because we don't talk baseball.
Yeah, I will.
You just need to expand your web a little bit,
get some more guys on.
This is why we're like, hey, it's Friday night, let's do it.
Yeah, am I like a pioneer for,
yeah, I don't know if we've ever recorded this late
on a Friday before.
Yeah.
So if you are a recurring guest now,
shout out to me.
Yeah, shout out to you.
Can you teach us something?
Make a smarter about baseball.
Oh, yeah.
Shit.
Maybe approach at the plate, let's say, or just like one thing that you guys should. Yeah, yeah. Um, Shit. Uh, maybe approach at the plate, let's say,
or just like one thing that you guys should give you all like a,
like a trivia question.
You can do trail that or just like,
if there's one nugget about baseball that we can just regurgitate,
yeah, and then we can act like we invented ourselves.
That's really what we're looking for here.
Something that fans watch in the game get wrong routinely,
that they don't fully understand.
Chit, you put me on the spot.
Home runs are rally killers.
Yeah, home runs are rally killers.
And that is confirmed.
Is this all because it could have hit that one?
No, no, I agree.
I know it's walked.
Walk your eyes goes ahead.
Oh, teach us how, how is the shift impacted you as a first baseman?
Not too much.
You just got a little more room to run.
I think I got something good.
If anybody ever hits a foul homer during an at bat, they're fucked.
The rest of that bat.
Don't never hit a home run after that, right?
There's three options from that point on.
It's another Homer, which is like a small percentage
or a punch out or a walk.
And the punch out is the highest percentage there.
So when you hit a homerun foul,
it's in your head right away, you're like, dammit.
You know, it's, I don't think it's something
you immediately get in your head, but like right after
you're like, yeah, I was, I was
fucked. That was, that was my one chance. Yeah, I'm fucked. So do you know it when you
go up to, to a, a, a play to parents, you're like, I'm going to see maybe one pitch that's
going to be my pitch. Yeah, I mean, it depends who it is. Kyle Hendrix today is not going
to give you a whole lot to hit. So if he throws one over the middle and you miss it, you could be in a bad spot.
But I think sometimes we give pictures
a little too much credit.
They're going to leave some stuff over the middle.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I know Barry Bonds was like the one example
to kind of go against what you were saying.
I could distinctly remember watching Barry Bonds
played appearances where he hit like five home runs
foul.
And then the sixth one, he hits out three times as far as the other one
straight out into the water.
But yeah, but that was one of the three.
That was yeah, it's Barry Bonds too.
Well, yeah, should he be in the whole thing?
Yes.
Yeah, correct answer.
You'll be right there.
I don't think that's any, I don't think it's any questions.
Yeah, I mean, I think there was a lot of a lot of that stuff going on in that, in that
time period. You should start kissing journalist asses now.
Thanks, though.
Yeah, because we this is a good way.
We're going to probably have all the fan votes.
Do you guys know a lot of journalists?
Uh, yeah, us ourselves.
Yeah, we are.
We're as big Jay as a cast.
We know Jake March.
Yeah.
We will push.
We'll push for you.
Do you guys, um, is it still like little league?
We're like, if you strike out, but you get a good foul, like you get a good foul cut,
people are like, hey, good cut up there.
No.
Okay.
And it always maybe feel good,
but I was like, yeah, that was a good cut.
You get a little slap on ass, just missed it.
Yeah, good cut.
Good cut.
No, I've actually, I've had it,
I've been in dugouts where guys get pissed about that.
I would imagine, yeah.
I like if, I won't, I won't name a name, I've been in dugouts where guys get pissed about that. I would imagine. Yeah.
I, like, if I won't, I won't name a name
because he was like a veteran who was,
when I was first coming out, he was with Oakland,
but if he would like line out,
I'm talking like hit a bullet at somebody
or gets robbed at home or you walk in,
you slap him on the ass or get my high five,
he's like, don't fucking touch me.
He's like, I'm out.
He's like, I don't care, I'm out. Don't touch me. I'm like, yeah, we're not doing lawn changle, we're not doing high five, he's like, don't fucking touch me. He's like, I'm out. He's like, I don't care, I'm out.
Don't touch me, I'm like.
Yeah, we're not doing lawn changle,
we're not doing exit velocity, I'm out.
What about, what about good eye?
Do you guys still say good eye to each other?
Good eyes, good ball talk.
I like that too, because that always made me feel like
doing nothing just being a coward or not swinging
from a good eye, good eye.
I would about this one, when you take a strike and they say, not your pitch. Yeah. Good eye. Good eye. Yeah. What about this one when you take a strike
and they say not your pitch. Yeah. Yeah. I like that one. Yeah. You spin it like that's not the
pitch you were looking for. Yeah. Now you're ready. Or how about if like you foul it off if I
fouled over the third base dugout a little see it deep chatter. Yeah. Oh, I like that. Yeah. I like
that. I like that a lot. Yeah. Yeah. Those are all right. So we got some baseball talk now.
All right. My last question, rowback question, RHO B.A.C.K.
calm promo code to take, uh, use code promo code take,
Q's its polo's hoodies joggers shorts, everything promo code take,
rowback.com. All right. So I'll say it. It's August 4th. The braids are gonna be in the postseason. You guys are wagon right now.
When it does flip to postseason baseball,
how much does it change in the locker room
and the approach day to day?
Are you guys, is everyone no more bullshitting,
no more talking shit, having fun?
Is it just all business?
No, no.
I don't think you could pay the guys in our club
out to be all business actually.
It's what you see with like Arcia and Ozzy and Ronald like fucking around on the field
is about as genuine as he gets.
Yeah.
If I went up to Ozzy tomorrow and was like, why don't you just chill out today?
He would like laugh at my face and probably tell me to fuck off.
Right. Right.
It's which I think is good around that time because I have been on, you know, a couple
of teams where Titans up a little bit and everybody, you know, starts worrying when the
playoffs come around and obviously these dudes won the World Series and in 21.
So they've been there done that.
But it's a it's a good environment when you treat it like
it's a normal game in May or whatever.
And you also know that contractually
you're now obligated if the praves do
win the World Series this year.
We have to have you on via Zoom within 24 hours,
preferably drunk.
Oh, I will be drunk.
Okay, 24 hours within 24 hours
of this one, we'll see that would would be you have to do that now.
Okay.
Okay.
All right.
Just so you know, we have a longstanding relationship with golfers, Joe,
Borough, some of these guys who have won titles and come on right away.
It's our favorite interviews because a lot of times those guys go on sports center
right before they get drunk and they'll give like their 10 minutes like and then they'll
disappear for like a week. Yeah. I'll give you the good footage. Okay, all right.
Good. Good. I love that. You're gonna be a you're gonna be a fan favorite already. Perfect.
All right. Well, Matt Olson. Thank you. We're current guests. Latest Friday guest ever.
Yeah. And future Hallfamer. Well, we're gonna push for you. Well, I appreciate that.
We got to work on that though. Yeah, just keep hitting dingers.
But not too many, because Shane and Evan are,
I think, running away with dingers only.
Most of the time.
What do you think about that format
for the fantasy baseball league?
So it was dingers only?
And then they also get one guy that gets hit by a pitch.
Which was a mistake, probably,
we'll probably won't do that next year.
I think we should do it 10 points for the day.
Yeah, we'll be here.
And counts as 10 points, we reduce it to five.
I think we should do it next year and just have account
as like one or two.
It's fun to have a guy to root for to get hit by pitch.
I do like that, but 10 points probably a little.
It's all weighted too high.
Did you listen to the whole thing or is it only draft?
Yeah.
Wow.
That's incredible.
Well, it was not good.
Well, you message me and you're like,
it's good, you gotta check it out.
Stop listening after the first round
because I think you were first round pick.
Yeah, I kept it going.
I was just sitting around, you know,
in my hotel room playing some CS5.
So I ran through it.
Listen to us butcher names, butcher teams.
Everybody was injured that I drafted.
Yeah.
Yeah, there was a lot of injured people.
Yeah, yeah.
You're down Alvarez's back though. He's on a little tear. Good pick. Yeah, there was a lot of injured people. Yeah. Yeah.
You're down Alvarez's back though.
He's on a little tear.
Good pick.
Yeah.
Good pick.
That was great pick.
I just didn't happen to know that he got injured literally the night before.
Yeah.
The fingers only.
I picked the guy with Vertigo.
Who's that?
Mount Castle on the Oreo.
But he's back.
He is back.
Yes, he is in fingers now.
But it's hard to pick a guy in your fantasy draft and then be like he's got vertigo. Yeah, that's stuff. Yeah
That's not gonna be good for hitting a baseball either my hit by pitch guy only drafted because he was an AWL
And then I go and I scroll through his Twitter and the last tweet that he put out was like thank you for all the prayers
I'm doing okay
Hope to make it back on the field again soon because he got drilled in his head
Oh, this is a judgement.
Yeah.
And now I feel like an asshole, because I'm now rooting for him
to get hit by more pitches when he was seriously injured
by the last one he got.
Yeah, it's a little fucked up.
It was fucked up, but we made our peace.
We're on.
I just don't know.
I tell him, like, put your hip into it next time.
But the problem is he's going to be getting out of the way
a lot quicker.
Yeah, exactly.
So that's if you look at it from a draft standpoint.
Yeah, actually, I do have one more question
because we were we're in the batting cages last week on
grit week and we stepped into the 80 mile per hour cage.
And Max was raking, by the way, Max is like a pretty good
hitter. It turns out Matt Starrer's of CAA.
That's what they called him. Yeah.
And I stepped in there.
I saw the ball coming in 80 miles an hour.
I was like, holy shit.
When I watch baseball on TV and I see a guy get hit by an 80 mile per hour pitch, I'm
like, oh, that's easy.
That's, yeah, leaning to that would take that one for the team.
That much hurt like shit doesn't he?
Even when it's the 80 miles per hour?
80 is not bad.
You get a 95 and up is where it really starts getting you.
Yeah.
80 look like softball for you. Yeah. I mean, think about it.
It's Hendrix change up. Yeah. And just watching him on TV.
It looks like it never gets there. Yeah. Right. Compared to the other guys.
It's crazy. Not, you know, trying to shit on Hendrix.
No, no, it's a great picture. But, but I mean, based off what we're seeing 80s is like a yeah,
because how how fast they throw when they're throwing you BP. Those are still
zip it them in like 60 65. Yeah, but they're closer. So it's it's it's playing
more like 85 90. That's what it was at that batting cage. It was way closer. I
remember I took my leg. If you weren't full and it was going 80, yeah, that's
probably yeah, it's getting there pretty good. That makes sense. I took I took a pee and a Michael Lee Tord was. If you weren't full and it was going 80, then that's probably, it's getting there pretty good.
That makes sense.
I took B.P. to minor league field once,
Hank was there and I'd like,
I just kept on missing.
I was like, can you guys slow it down?
I was like, this is kind of what we pitching at.
I was like, well, I can't hit this.
Well, I've done it before.
Actually, funny story is my first B.P. of big league
spring training, Bob Melvin was throwing B was throwing BP to me. It's a manager
with Oakland. And I swung in this at the first pitch. I was like, I'm never fucking
kind of the big things. I'm like, they're gonna send me down tomorrow and never call for
me back. Billy Beans up in the up in the sweet like a walking Phoenix and gladier just thumbs down. Yeah, I get him gone.
Oh, man, well, Matt, thank you so much, man.
We had a great time having you on your recurring guests.
You'll be back on.
Appreciate it.
Hopefully 24 hours after the world's here.
Yes, we go.
Yes, we're going to hold you to it.
Cubs can't do it.
I don't think they can.

Hank and Max on heater with 21. And then we have a time, me and Billy, 19, big cap
PFT, 19.
And so Jake,
Jake,
Billy has been contributing to your part
of the last course, right?
Yes.
So the last Mount Rushmore will be
the Friday before Labor Day officially.
Did Billy submit FBI?
That was me.
Yeah, that's crazy.
I thought Billy would do MAGA.
It's just, yeah.
Yeah, a lot of lot of a lot of do MAGA. It's just, yeah.
Yeah. A lot of grammar people are saying
some of these weren't even acronyms.
What are those people's problems?
I don't know.
Which one is an acronym?
acronym has to also be like a word or something?
Like something that you can pronounce.
Fuck that.
Like BJ wasn't OTPH, but it was in,
what? He missed wasn't. What?
He missed Obgin.
Missed Obgin.
Yeah, that was not well.
Scuba was one that we missed.
Scuba just rules.
Okay, Mount Rushmore rookie mistakes.
What is the order?
The order is big cat PFT, me and Billy, Hank and Max.
Okay, we have our one, one.
I'll just go with the PFT. Look, we don't have to do numbers. We did a little numbers before. Okay. We have our one one. I'll just go with it. P.
Th. Look, we don't have to do numbers. We did a little numbers before.
No, not rush one rookie mistakes. Eating more of an edible because you can't feel it.
Mm-hmm. You total rookie mistake. Your first time having an edible.
Eat maybe half the brownie and you're like, well, it's been 30 minutes. I don't
feel anything yet. I'm not high. I'll just have the other half.
And then you find yourself in hell.
Yes. For about 10 hours.
Yes, I thought I'd gotten out.
I'd gotten out of Vegas one time.
Yeah.
We were there for, we were there doing a podcast.
AWL came and gave me a bunch of edibles
and I was editing the podcast.
So I like took a little bit as I was editing.
I was like, oh, I don't feel it.
I don't feel it.
Took a bunch more.
And then I was in bed in the fetal position
and I felt like my life was fading away
Like I couldn't open my eyes and I was like I'm fading to black
This is it rest in peace and then I remembered reading all the submissions that people being like I ate too many edibles
Thought I was gonna die and then I was like oh, it's no, this is just me right now
It's a very relatable mistake that I think anyone who's had any weed or any edible has made this mistake
It is the ultimate rookie mistake.
I've, I remember I've done it where, like, eat,
I've done it with mushrooms too, where it's like,
oh, eat a little bit and then, oh, I don't feel anything.
Oh, let me eat the rest of it and then
holy fuck, I'm on the moon.
Yeah, it takes way longer to hit.
So if you're just smoking, then it, you know,
you get high almost immediately,
but if you eat something, your body has to metabolize it.
I did in college one time,
and the first time I ever ate brownies,
I woke up very high the next day at about 11 o'clock.
I had an oral presentation I had to give in my class.
At one, still very high.
I just got up there and cough pretended I was sick.
And then sped through my presentation about five minutes,
and I was like, everybody knows I'm high right now.
Yeah, it's terrible.
Yeah. It's a bad, bad scene I'm high right now. Yeah, it's terrible. Yeah.
It's a bad, bad scene.
I oftentimes will eat just a little bit
to try to like ease into it.
And then I'll get impatient.
I need the whole thing.
And then it's a bad, bad move.
Okay, Hank and Max.
Max, were you telling me about a restaurant the other day
where everything on the menu has weed in it?
That sounds like a deal.
Yeah, that was bad.
That was bad. That's a bad idea.
That's a worst idea for a restaurant ever. Yeah.
Yeah. You're just get higher and higher and then people just must like not ever leave.
Yeah. There's a point when you're doing that where
munchies go into reverse and I like couldn't eat anymore.
I'm so high that like the thought of eating more and getting more high
disgusted. Yeah. And the food tasted really good, which was the best.
And that's the worst part about Edibles too,
is like once you hit that point, you can't turn it off.
You just have to ride it.
Like a shower nap, nothing, nothing fixes it.
Okay, Jake and Billy.
We are going to go with shitting after shower.
Okay, okay.
Okay, yeah, it's a bad mistake.
You say the S word?
Yeah, wow, you wanted on the graph?
Out of here!
Out of here!
Okay.
Hank and Max.
We're gonna go with swallowing dipspit.
Oh, yeah.
Yep, good one.
First time I dipped, swallowing, puked everywhere, also braces,
so that was just a disaster.
I accidentally drank your dip spit the other day.
That was Billy's fault.
I had a water bottle.
I had to spit it somewhere in the middle.
And Billy just gave me my water bottle.
I didn't want to buy it.
And there was like a little sip left.
Oh no, just disgusting.
Yeah, that's the cousin to what Hank is talking about
swallowing your own dip spit,
but the cousin to that is drinking
out of any bottle near a dipper.
And then we will go with parlaying a bunch of heavy favorites.
What do you mean?
That seems like an insult fact.
Yeah, what do you mean, Hank?
We're going to go to John Angelos in the booth.
It never works.
It's a rookie mistake.
What do you mean, you never works?
I'm going to parlay a bunch of heavy favorites.
Oh, that's right, because the Celtics beat the heat in the conference finals this year, right? Was that a parlay? Yeah, it actually was a parlay.
He did the panthers when they were up three oh and that was two. That was a couple of heavy favorites.
Yeah, you just said parlaying multiple heavy favorites. I said a bunch. Okay. That's a bunch.
Now that's a classic like someone just starts gambling. They're like, oh, there's no way all
these can lose and that it okay, okay
Yeah, you don't agree. No, I agree that seems also like a different gambling. Yeah, I have a different gambling one, but yeah
That that plays I like it. I'm not I'm not protesting the pick. I just said all I said was it seemed like an insult
It's not an insult pick PFT well, and you know PFT a couple. Artists formerly known as the Can't Loose Parlay.
Yeah, although that was sometimes, that's underdogs as well.
Right.
Well, Hank, did it hit?
What?
My parlay.
That was a couple.
I said a bunch.
So you're just taking offense to something that I was not directed to you.
No, that's fine.
Our next pick is thinking of thinking that you do a bunch of hungry dogs one year and then the next year you'll be able to hit all of them
It was profitable a couple years ago. I think in the past two years. It's been so is overall profitable
Yeah, okay. Yeah, cuz of the extra Saturday
You do
Okay, Jake and Pilly it's good pick. Yeah, no, it was insult pit, but it's good. Yeah, it doesn't matter
Our next pick is going to be forgetting to put on pick. Yeah, no. It's an insult pick, but it's a good pick. Yeah, it doesn't matter. Our next pick is going to be forgetting
to put on sunscreen.
Oh, okay, okay.
10.
Yeah, I like it in a little tan, little less.
Yeah, but if you're out there too long
and it's like all I could have done
was just a 30 second spray.
That would have changed everything.
I still think that there should be a booth
where you can just walk through it
and they spray it, like it's a spray tan booth
and they have it on the beach, on the boardwalk. You just walk through it and they spray it, like it's a spray tan booth and they have it on the beach on the boardwalk.
You just walk through it, put your arms at the side
and it just hoses you down sunscreen,
then you're good for the day.
Yeah, five bucks a pop.
Yeah, it's just, it's things.
I mean, I have very sensitive skin
but it can change everything.
Yeah, and everything.
It can change everything.
Yeah, it is bad to do that on your first day of vacation.
You get sunburned right off the bat. You had a bat on the, a few weeks ago, right? I was fine, I was fine. It's totally fine do that on your first day of vacation. You had sunburn right off the bat.
You had a battle in the few weeks ago, right?
I was fine.
I was fine.
I was fine after that.
Okay, we have two.
We have two.
Yes, how snake works.
All right, for our second pick, Darren Revelle knows this one very well.
Oh, I like it.
I'm going to go with putting the top down on your convertible in a parade in Dallas, Texas.
Bad idea.
Rocky mistake. It sounds great. I mean, Texas. Bad idea. Rocky Mistake. It sounds great.
I mean, the weather's nice.
It's beautiful.
You know, your wife's there with you.
Her ass is out.
You want to have a great careful.
Careful.
She was there.
Check it out.
She was there.
But not a good idea.
You want to blast your music, let everybody hear what you're
listening to.
No, keep the top up.
Yes.
Rocky Mistake. Rocky Mistake, saying you'll be able to pull out in time. or you're listening to, no, keep the top up. Yes, rookie mistake.
Rookie mistake, saying you'll be able to pull out in time. Don't worry about it, babe.
I got this.
I got this.
I got it.
I got it.
Big time rookie mistake.
I feel like that's the opposite of it.
What?
I feel like if you, pulling out in time is a veteran,
is a veteran move.
No, saying you, like being like, I can do this.
I believe in yourself, fun, you don't.
Yeah.
I better send that.
Okay, yeah, no, I don't understand the pick.
Okay, let's me do that.
All right, okay.
Makes no sense.
It makes perfect sense.
Makes zero sense.
Yeah.
Makes no sense.
That way you have three kids.
You go.
I like that.
I like that.
Okay.
All right, our next pick, it's gonna to be similar to our first one, but different,
pooping without checking for toilet paper. Good pick. We had it on our list.
Yeah, that's the worst thing. That's the worst thing.
It's pooping in sunscreen for you, boys. So far, yeah.
Okay. But I'll record mistakes.
Hank, Max, we're going to go with mixing liquors when you're drinking.
Yeah.
Okay.
Have a couple drinks vodka, have a couple drinks tequila,
have a couple drinks whiskey, never ends up good.
Even mixing liquor and beer, I've always liked the liquor for beer and the clear beer
before liquor gets you sicker.
But it's something you do when you're younger and never works out.
You wanna just stick, stick to one thing
or just do a couple, you know, a little bit of liquor
and then drink beer for the rest of the night.
Yep.
You don't wanna switch it up.
Yep, good pick.
Max, I like my
gem related one more than your travel microwave one.
Oh, microwave, microwave.
I don't let, ah why does it go to the rock
The research not stretching before exercise. Oh right okay
I'd never stretch before exercise but yeah, but I also don't exercise then you get hurt
It's basically like it's a rookie mistake people don't do and then they get hurt and then they have to stretch every time
We'll talk about mine as honorable okay, all right. That's okay, pick
Yeah, we'll see. Show it next. Alright. It's a microwave.
What's a microwave related? I can't wait to hear this one.
But we'll we'll finish up the draft. Jake.
Alright, our last pick is going to be leaving too much time on the clock for Patrick
Mahomes. Oh, yeah. Good one. Good.
Good. This is a rookie mistake. Yeah. That's good.
Saw it in the bills playoff game. You better kneel that ball until the final play happens.
It's do not give him the ball back.
It's almost too much time all the time for Patrick Mahol's.
Yeah, anytime.
So that's our final pick.
Yep.
Okay, PFT.
Yeah, last one.
I think we go the first one.
Okay.
Drinking on an empty stomach.
Yep.
Yep.
Forgetting to eat and then having some drinks.
Got to drunk faster.
No.
It does, but it also, you hit that point where you're like,
fuck, I really should have put something in my body.
Then you eat and then you're full
and then it's a complete reset.
No, I think when you eat, when you're drunk,
you can't keep drinking.
It's like, no, yeah, you get full
and then you're like, I'm dead sober.
I don't think it's almost ever a complete reset.
I think it actually hurts a lot.
Drinking on empty stomach is a rookie mistake.
Yeah, it's like, let's go to a party.
And high school, I was on the wrong side of that.
Oh no.
Would you do?
Fast out.
Oh no.
Did they draw something on you?
Uh, no.
Not on your feet.
No, I wasn't on your face.
I love how like the craziest drinking story
is Jake just like falling asleep.
Yeah, and forget to eat a sandwich.
Did you do yourself?
Not that time, but I've done it before.
Okay, what do we miss?
Max, I want to hear this microwave one.
Putting tin foil on the microwave.
Oh, okay.
Okay.
Yeah, sparks.
Like when you're a kid, I feel like every little kid.
I've never done that.
That's what I've never done that.
I did it.
Well, I did it when I was a little kid and I was like, oh, I want to heat up this slice
pizza, not knowing that you can't, it's a disaster every time.
It's the definition of a, it's a younger rookie mistake, but I know your mom listens,
that's just bad parenting.
Just being factual, like, I think my kids are youngest of four, I was the youngest of four,
come on.
Okay.
And you still don't understand the pullout thing? I mean, I understand.
So stretching or stretching a tinfoil. I think you went with the right pick. Yeah.
Putting a spoon in the microwave too. That does the same thing as tinfoil. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Okay.
Other ones we had falling in love on the Jersey Shore. Big time rookie mistake. Ronnie
taught us that and then film love and then had like the
most toxic relationship ever.
I had, so my gambling one was just teasers, like thinking like teasers are, you know,
every teaser's gonna win.
That's a rookie mistake.
But those make sense.
Yeah, I do like teasers.
I like them too, but I also know, I'm at the point now where I know when I tease, I'm
just teasing myself.
Because you see it and you're like, oh, but I also know I'm at the point now where I know when I tease I'm just teasing myself Because you see it you're like oh this can't lose
Flying with a gun flying with a gun is a rookie mistake. Oh Hank. I had one for you
Max wanted to do flying with a water bottle, which I was like you can't do either though. Yeah, I know
You can empty it out. Yeah, I had one for you. I get my I get mine's
Taken every time another one eat well if you're an elementary school teacher signing up and going to space, that's a good one.
That's a rookie mistake.
I don't got it.
You already forgot the challenger.
You literally said you'll never forget.
You said you'd never forget the O-rings.
Yeah.
Putting the top down you're convertible in Dallas.
Yeah, that's a big rookie mistake.
I had another daily one is just asking a woman when she's
due without definitively knowing if she's pregnant or not.
That's a big time rookie mistake.
Invading Russia in the winter time.
Yep.
Taking insurance in Blackjack.
Yep.
Yeah.
That's a rookie mistake.
Showering without getting a towel. Yeah.
Stuck. Mm-hmm. Got to run naked sometimes.
You've done that, Jake? Of course. We've all done it.
The nude run. Yeah.
Oh, we had we had Darnell Wright,
uh, the Bears first round pick, rookie mistake.
He trained all offseason for the wide receivers conditioning test.
That's a rookie mistake. Yeah, I this one
come off weird in the graphic, but like talking shit to veteran,
but like a veteran on your team. Oh, yeah, that's like an
actual rookie mistake. Yeah, we will do in camp and they'll talk
shit. And then it comes back to bite him. Yeah, but it would have
looked like talking shit to a veteran war veteran, like getting
mad at a very good player like Dylan Brooks Yeah, I'll say the bear
I mean the bears are rookie mistake. Yes. Yeah. Yes
Yeah, like you are just giving bolt-in port material right rookie mistake forgetty headphones on a flight. Oh
That's a good one
I that's like the mo you could forget everything
But if you forget headphones the worst flight ever
I lost my headphones on groui come back to the wires. Like an absolute peasant.
All airlines.
Pretty much giving free headphones these days.
They're giving free what?
Free headphones.
Really?
It can't just bleep out the word phones.
Yeah.
I think if you're serious about your TikTok game,
the wired headphones actually is the way to go.
It's a better sound quality.
Just so you know.
Means that talking about your fantasy team,
while Big Cat's watching a gaming game,
he's on.
Oh yeah. That's a big working mistake. Yeah, that happened a few times
It's been like I need to touch down from this guy. It's like well. I need this team to win otherwise. I'm done
Any other ones we missed that was a good amount of rush for
Yeah, not knocking on your parents bedroom door. Oh
Yeah, that's a yeah forgetting to knock for getting to knock is a very,
very bad one. Shit, that one. Yeah. There was somebody that got walked in on twice recently.
It was, it was some celebrity. Their daughter walked in on them twice on their birthday
both times. Oh, no. Yeah. Oh, it's Kelly Rippa. Oh, Kelly Rippa's daughter walked in on
like her eighth birthday and then her 16th birthday. Oh,
Jesus mom getting it in that's scarring. Yeah, I don't think you can come back from that again. Yeah. Okay. Good Mount Rush for everyone
Yeah, no
Okay, yeah
Okay, let's do roast with Uncle Chaps
Okay, let's finish up with some roasts, and we have our good friend, Uncle Chaps back.
So happy, it's been a long time, boys.
It's been a long time, so long,
that we forgot to put you in the honorable mentions
of the Mount Rush War.
Yeah, that was hurt.
Full, I thought there was gonna be smaller font
and I was down there, I looked and looked and looked.
Nope.
Nope.
I told you, Chaps, you're not a guest,
that you're a part of the show.
Oh, well, that makes it better.
Yeah, that's what we say to everyone that we forgot. Yeah, that's what I'm gonna go back. I you're not a guest that you're a part of the show. Oh, well that makes it better.
Yeah, that's what we say to everyone that we forgot.
Yeah, that's what I'm gonna go back,
I'm gonna find that tweet that I sent and just say that to everybody.
Yeah, exactly.
So what?
Actually I'm part of the family.
What's up in the world of Chaps, you've moved?
Yeah, I moved up here, super excited to be here.
It's been great so far.
You're seeing people now, you're like in the office,
like you're shockingly not as depressed as you're making
my like basement by myself.
I wake up every day and I feel like you have a purpose today.
Yeah, who here in Chicago?
Which of the Chicago guys have you, have you hit it off with?
Oddly enough, probably white socks a day.
Well, I mean white socks a day is an ultimate glue guy.
Yeah, so we, I think we're gonna get into some terrariums,
gonna go find some stuff and make terrariums together.
Oh, Billy's so mad he's not here.
Terrariums, what is that?
Yeah, so I fell into big terrarium TikTok,
and this dude makes like self-contained ecosystems,
where he'll make it in a little jar,
and then seal it close, and he's like,
you don't have to open it for 60 years.
Oh, so it's not like a terrarium for a lizard.
No, it's like a self-contained like ecosystem.
So you would make tiny earth.
Yeah, so you and White Sacks.
And I'm the God of it.
Yeah, well, you and White Sacks save big ideas
to make a 60 year video.
Yeah, okay, got it.
It's long, it's long for.
It's long for it.
It's long for it.
All right.
Brought to you by MiracleGrop.
I did, yeah, I've seen those videos.
There's one guy in like France who did it.
Yeah, he's got a real sexy voice.
Yeah, he dropped like one drop of water
into his like big, this big glass thing,
like 10 years in and then it lived for another 30 years.
Yeah, that's the huge one, right?
Yeah, a huge glass one and the guy looks like a crazy.
Yeah, yeah, I love that guy.
Okay, so you're riding around on a yellow bicycle.
Yeah.
How's that going?
Fantastic, again, woke up happy today.
No one else is gonna go there.
And it makes me feel better than drivers
because they're sitting at their red lights miserable
and I'm cruising fast at 35.
Yeah, that's legal.
What do you mean?
I hate that.
You're the guy that does the,
we have the same rules except,
Oh no, we don't have the same rules
There is no rules. We're just going to redline with the bicycle
What are the rules for bicyclists then chaps? What's that? What are the rules of the road for bicyclists? There is none like
Do whatever I want to like what are they gonna is a cop gonna be like oh you're on your yellow bike like I'm gonna
Give you you don't get a ticket on a yellow bike
That's true the cop lights up. It is disarming.
And then I can be one of those,
wow, wow, dirt bikes and get out of here.
You can't go where I can go.
It's true. That's true.
We're where you go, there are no roads.
But I have been almost hit a couple times.
Yeah, I was gonna say it seems very unsafe.
Yeah, I mean, it is.
Are you wearing a helmet?
Oh yeah, I've got a helmet.
And every day I reward myself when I arrive safely. I have these little stickers that I put on my yellow helmet
And they are called safety as paramount pancakes and it's kind of like the Ohio buck eyes. I like that
Okay, so when we just for not dying every time you don't die in a bike. Yeah, it's so
Congratulations to me. It sounds so tragic
It's gonna be like we scraped
Chaps his body off the pavement, Buddy did have 140 stickers on his helmet.
Yeah, but I need a punishment if I die.
You guys have to take them all off.
Oh, take them all off.
Yeah, okay.
On ceremony, it's like he broke the streak.
Yes, the streak is over.
No more stickers for Chaps.
Okay, so should we do some roasts?
Yeah, let's do it.
Have you been reading a lot recently?
Yeah.
No, I haven't been reading a loud use,
like Kate does it on our show.
Yeah.
So I haven't been a lot.
Oh, last question.
Do you have, do you want to say anything about your co-host, Kahn's basically being like
a de mentor on Twitter for the last month and a half while he's on paternity leave?
I'm just glad that everybody else is seeing why I hate Krad. It's nice to welcome everybody into that family too.
I texted him like maybe week in.
I was like, dude, I know you're going through,
you're going through paternity leave,
but you don't have to have a take on everything.
No, he does.
Yeah, he really does.
He does, which I, it was one of those things
where at first I was like, what the fuck is going on?
And then it got so bad it got good.
And then, like someone's like,
Luzania, he's like,
Luzania is the worst food ever.
And he's legit triggered.
Not like Twitter triggered,
because he starts texting me offline.
He's like, what do you mean, man?
Don't you see where I'm coming from?
Yeah, no, I don't.
I mean, after college football fans,
he went after Notre Dame, he went after Italians.
Yeah, and he was like,
oh, I don't know why people do
this three weeks to football. Can't we just enjoy the summer?
Next thing you know, the next week, two weeks tell West Point
football. Yeah, he's mad about countdown. Yeah, he was mad about
countdown. That's when I got back in on it. That's when it was so
bad it was good when he's like, why are we counting down? Which
is what we all did. We all count down. We start at the day after the Super Bowl.
What is it starting?
It's usually like maybe a month or two after.
Whenever the days get to a point
where it's not depressing to look
how far in the advanced the football season is,
that's when I'm back all in at count down.
Yeah, I love the catchers report.
Oh yeah.
And it's the random treat being like seven weeks at this time.
You'll be sitting on your couch watching Sunday night football.
I'm like, fuck you.
And then the Jags have like day 76 and it'll be like Luke Forteners picture.
Yeah, some random number 76.
I have an error.
Oh, how are you feeling about all the post mortems that keep coming out about urban
Meyer? Do you love them as much as we do?
As a Jags guy.
I hope I want to give him my yellow bike so we can get in a rack.
As a Jagsger. I hope.
I want to give him my yellow bike so we can get in a wreck.
Take away his bike.
That's fantastic.
Do you think this is a big year for Trevor Lawrence?
It feels like he needs to, because last year we saw it, but it was also not all the way
consistent.
This year it's got to kind of be consistent.
I think he's going to, I'm going to put a lot of money on him winning the MVP.
Wow. Yeah. Wow.
I'm what because odds have got to be insane, right? And he's so good and now having Calvin Ridley
I don't know if you've seen the clips from their camp Calvin Ridley's a freak. He is they the Jags might have across the board
The best skill positions listen, I don't know if you could say there's a team like the chiefs are pretty good
Their skill position players stink. They're pretty good, but not this the skill. I mean AJ Brown Davante Smith. Yeah, that's pretty good
Yeah, who's there Dallas Goddard? Who's there running back? Okay, let's do a very swift. Yeah, yeah, aFC
Bills are pretty good. I would the bang but I don't think it's deep Jamar chase Tyler Boyd
That's still go jacks.. That's what makes it.
The running back.
Chargers pretty good.
Yeah, but we beat the chargers.
What about the dolphins?
Dolphins have like an insane.
We're in the top five.
You know what?
You know what?
You know what?
You know what?
That's me.
Chap, they don't count.
I want to let you believe.
I'm a top eight friend VP.
I want to let you believe.
That's what I believe.
Yeah, I mean, from years past that go in this high,
because even when the, in 2017, after Blake, sorry,
when Blake left, essentially,
I didn't think that they were going to be good again.
And now, Trevor, baby,
you know, the difference a year makes.
And you guys are monitoring the piss too.
Oh yeah.
You see those journals?
That's huge.
The Jacksonville journals are amazing.
I wanna get one at my house.
I wonder how much they are.
They're, I think, $2,400.
I'm not gonna get one for real.
You pee directly into it and it tells you how hydrated you are.
But how does it charge?
Is it like hydrocharged?
Or you gotta take that bad boy out and plug it into a USB?
Maybe it's like a turbine, like a dam,
so the piss going through the turbine actually powers it.
I bet that was DARPA, like the military invention people that came up with that. Yeah
It's great. By the way, I'm sorry that we jumped out of your throat there
We have a thing on this show where if someone comes and out takes us we get a little upset
Territorial. Yeah, and you did try to outtake us. I did. Yeah, that take is wrong
Yeah, I came in and said it yeah, you said it very said it very confidently. Yeah. So we had to go against it.
Might sprinkle.
Might sprinkle.
Just for chaps.
Just for chaps saying that.
Yeah, but he kind of touched it into it.
Yeah.
Okay.
Chaps, let's do some roasts.
Okay.
Are we doing it regular?
Any voices you want?
Let's start regular then maybe we can go voice.
If I read really poorly, I'm gonna switch to a voice like FDR.
Okay, better.
You do an FDR?
Oh, it's a great FDR. Well then to a voice like FDR. Okay, you do an FDR? Oh, it's a great FDR.
Well, then you should start with FDR.
Okay. The bastard offspring of the Blue's brothers meets the bastard offspring of Wayne
and Goth three times weekly.
To rank the random things in groups of four, talk about living in Chicago, berate junior employees,
and insult this supervisor for his pull golf performance
and inability to achieve and maintain an erection.
Oh, five stars.
That feels like he started his roast of us
and just landed with Hank, right?
Did you have a kill?
Not a bad FDR, right?
Yeah, keep it going or go back. Yeah, I'm gonna get a good deal.
Keep it going or go back.
Yeah, do it one more.
Do it one more.
Oh, I'll get one more.
One more, okay.
Big Cat looks like a guy that's always accidentally
sitting on something nasty that's on his chair.
Check under Big Cat's desk.
There is definitely boogers. PFT's mustache is a mix of
Hitler and my great aunt. Still not
convinced that PFT isn't just a bunch
of hamsters sitting on each other's
shoulders pretending to be a person.
Jake looks like he wears socks to bed.
Not a burn. More of an observation. Hangs up a lip. Looks like he wears socks to bed. Not a bed. More of an observation.
Sometimes, yeah.
Hanks up a lip, looks like it, left to go, find his chin.
Oh.
Ooh.
Yeah, that one was mean.
Yeah.
Buggers under the desk is one of the meanest things you could say to him.
No, it's not that's normal.
Yeah.
If you have a desk and there's not at least a couple boogers.
Oh, I don't know.
No.
No.
No. We had a seal. We had a guy and there's not at least a couple boogers. Oh, I don't know. No, no.
No.
We had a seal.
We had a guy that used to, someone used to put their boogers
on the wall above the urinal and the old barsel sports
office.
And it was just, it looked disgusting.
Didn't Fatalburg, like, say he did that?
Was that fights?
Or maybe he was the one on the investigation.
Yeah, I think he was, that's nasty rumours
to start out fights.
But I'll go with it.
Yeah, I'll meet you in the fight. Yeah, look like the aggro cragg on the walls. Gross. Yeah, I think he was in that's nasty rumours star hot fights, but I'll go with it. Yeah, I look like the
aggro crack on the walls gross. Yeah, I read so much better in an
accent. Yeah, you give us a big time, Tom. Okay. The sides of
the great pyramid, a 7, 756 feet long, forming a square that
could fit nearly 10 football fields it's nearly the
biggest square in the world second to Jake Mosh
Chumley from Pond stars recently lost an incredible 60 pounds over the first
year and in interview he said his only complaint is that people now mistake him for someone
named Max from part of my team.
Big Cat looks like Warren Sharp if he ate a donut for every time he promoted his football
preview book.
That's pretty good.
I recently found out that his name's actually not Warren Sharp.
And it's sharp because he's a gambler. Oh. For the record, I'm a fucking moron. I'm not realizing that his name's actually not Warren Sharp. And it's sharp because he's a gambler.
Oh.
For the record, I'm a fucking moron.
I'm not realizing that.
No.
It's fine.
I was like, wow, this gambler guy is the last name of Sharp.
We're an incredible stroke of luck.
Yeah.
Tiger golf.
PFT looks like Chris Stapleson's younger sister.
Okay.
Chaps looks like the love child of Max Crosby and Kramer. Ooh. I don't
know. I can see Max Crosby. Yeah, but what about Kramer? The racist part and word guy.
Ooh. You can tell Hank's breast smells like shit because that's the old school way. That's a good one. I like that. All right, I'm going back to FDR.
All right, okay.
Max Face looks like a turtle shower with a face drawn on it by an overly confident ambidextrous
child.
PFT looks like Hawk Hogan after being a quarter cremated.
That was a good one.
That was good.
Big cat looks like he makes a fresh part of sugar
for his stellar blue right before he buttes his hair
every morning.
A buttery one here.
Jake look like he thanks a person right before being
roasted by them and Hank looks like he sends his
family's updates about his workouts.
Yes, facts.
I think it's the last one.
Okay.
Two days in.
You boys look like a diagram of evolution of man.
Jake in the front course but ultimately a convincing argument that maybe a species can evolve too far for its own good.
Obviously Max is a knuckle-dragging in the back. That motherfucker is an evolution immune.
Seen a Max figurine of him at the Natural Science Museum.
science museum. PFT is a hunter gatherer, but too slow to hunt and not told enough to gather any of the good stuff. That was good. It feels good to get a roast. Yeah, it feels like
hurt me. They're punic. Yeah, I'm surprised there wasn't better ones about me. I know like
Kramer, there's lots of stuff to roast. Well, I think just people watching YouTube. Remember when you were to press for 11 years? Yeah, that was rough. You got cream
by Boris. I think I'm completely cured of banana and
juice pink, I though. Oh, that's great. That's a huge stuff. Yeah, actually believe in
an anabiotics now turns out. Really? They were. Yeah. Is there a banana here. I'm not doing it.
I mean, I don't want to be a fake.
He's not.
Talk a strong game.
Oh, I'll do it.
I need to raise the money for a VFW that I'm helping.
Okay.
And I'm willing to sell ad space on my yellow helmet.
Okay.
To anybody that wants to do it.
I like it.
It's a good cause.
Yeah.
So if you go to barstool sports.com slash wins for warriors, you could do that. do it. I like it. It's a good cause. Yeah. So if you go to barstoolsports.com slash wins
for warriors, you could do that.
Love it.
Love it.
Chaps, I have one last question for you.
The boys recently went out and played some paintball.
Okay.
A lot of paintball against each other.
As a combat veteran, I'm just curious to know
what you think our combat styles would be like in paintball.
Ooh.
I could see.
Billy was part of this as well.
Yes, Billy was definitely a part of this.
I feel like Billy's just the kind of guy
that just runs around.
Like we call that pray and then spray and then the biz.
I think that's kind of what he would do.
I could see you just sitting on the sidelines
making observations about how everything
reminds you of War War II.
Okay.
Different ones.
Hank, I think because he's the supervisor now,
he's just doing a little supervising,
bringing in different people, trying to get the right teams together
to make the comradery as good as it can be.
I think you are probably in the rear with the gear, Dan.
Like just eating donuts and shit, waiting to get discharged.
I think we have logistics guy and Jake,
that he's bringing the bombs bullets and band-aids.
And I think Max was too fat to surf.
Oh, there.
The roads continue.
All right, Chaps, do you want to guess a number?
Yeah, I'd love to.
OK.
Right now?
Yeah, go for it.
