Today is Friday, April 9th. I miss Tiger Woods. Yeah.

Well, I tried to put a bet on him as a future to win the Master. Just out of respect, just to get the good luck going and you know, the sad thing is like if that bet would have hit, I would have donated all the winnings to the control room. I would have doubled it. Yeah. I would have doubled it and I would have matched your double. I would have doubled it and then I would have tripled the double. So what is that?

Compound interest, six carry the two. It would have been a lot of money. Ton of money to the control room. That we were going to give away. But I, there's something about, I mean the Masters are great, we've had Masters without Tiger Woods, but he just feels like the force that is around, especially on the Thursday and Friday. It's Saturday, Sunday.

Once we get to Moving Day, which we're golf guys, we know what Moving Day is, it's Saturday. But once you get to the weekend, the field kind of clears up and you're like, all right, here's what we got. But the first two days, you're just watching golf and trying, you know, we're rooting for Brooks. You're trying to see how things shake out. But Tiger was that force. Yeah.

He is the force that would draw you in. Right now, it's like, yeah, we want Brooks to do what we, it's tough to root for the course at Augusta too because in many ways the course is already Goliath when it comes to the Masters. It is. Everyone talks about how nice it is and listening to the broadcast this year, I'm more convinced than ever that the birds are actually piped in crowd noise. There's one bird in particular.

They play its call over and over and over. They're getting sloppy with it. I think it might be a whipper wheel, but whatever it is, it's very obvious. You guys need better birds. You need a new bird guy on your soundtrack because it's getting to the point where it's kind of obvious. Yeah. And the, this course is playing tough.

That's going to be the big story coming out of the first day. The greens are dry. It's running everywhere. Well, you want to play early in the day. You want to play early in the day. You want to hope for a little rain. And Bryson DeShambo who has dubbed this a par 67 at the time of this taping is plus four. So more like a par 75.

Did he review? Did he review? What's par? 72 76. Did he reveal what was in his bag? He was trying to get us to all to be interested. Bryson did a classic Bryson thing where he's like, okay, I've got a little bit of good will going from the video.

I've made a friend of big cat. Big cat is sweating me right now. By the way, we're bringing back sweating. Oh, you're sweating. Dude, did you see what, did you see the news that we found after we taped the show on Tuesday that Bryson to clear his head before playing in the masters this weekend, went and played a little disc golf. He bangs some chains.

So he's, I actually wouldn't put it past Bryson to do everything just to get favor of this podcast. Yeah. And that's not narcissistic at all. I just think that he really wants our love. If he puts a Doge driver cover on his big boy and is like 50 inch driver. At that point, I'll be like, yeah, Bryson to the moon. But until that happens, when he, when he wears a hat that says bears are back.

Yeah. I'm not fucking, I'm on to you, dude. Yeah. And you kind of threw away what little good will you had going by doing the whole like guess what's in my bag this week and I'm going to shock the world. And we're not going to bash Bryson for this whole show. Is that a ludicrous song? What in the world's in my bag?

Yeah. Yeah. Come on, come on, Bryson. Come on, dude. But here's, here's the problem with Bryson that, well, he's got a lot of problems. But the biggest issue that he is facing today, and this is very similar to relief pitchers in MLB. When you're bigger and you're doing well, you're strong.

And when you're doing poorly, you're fat. And he looks fat today. Yeah. Not the body shame, but it's, there's something about the plus four next to his name that the strength now becomes a little pudgy. Yeah. Well, there's that. And there's also the fact that we also have Patrick Reed out there and Bryson isn't even

the most unlikable, unlikable guy. Right. That's Patrick. I somehow like Patrick Reed more because he's more of a villain than Bryson is. I put a future bet on Patrick to win this masters mainly because I guess I would like to hear Jim Nance recite Imagine Dragons lyrics again. Yes. But also because like he is, he's the ultimate heel in golf.

Bryson is like, he's an aspiring heel. Right. He's not very. He's graced it. He still would, the difference is Patrick Reed knows everyone hates him and he kind of has just accepted it and he'll complain about rules and his wife will complain about rules and say, oh, everyone's vilifying Patrick. Bryson, if Bryson could flip the switch and we all just loved him, he would take that.

Patrick Reed, I don't think would take that anymore. He's like, wait, if you all love me, then I can't complain about rules and cheat anymore. No deal. Yeah. I can't steal wallets allegedly out of my college roommates locker. Right. Bryson would, he would try to get away with cheating. Patrick Reed would cheat, then get away with it and be like, fuck you guys.

Yeah. I just cheated in one. Right. Bryson would be like, I didn't actually cheat. Brooks is out there. I want to just, you know, we as a podcast don't make excuses, but I also am just stating a fact. Brooks is playing on basically one leg.

He's, it's probably the most heroic thing I've ever seen in any sport ever. And again, we're not making excuses. We're not biased for stating facts. This is like Willis Reed. This is Kirk Gibson. This is all those things. Byron left, which being helped down the fairway by his offensive line. Correct.

Everything that you can think of all any, any of the lowest moments where someone just triumphs over all these injuries and hardships. That's Brooks shooting plus two today. Yeah. Ian Rappport tweeted out some report. I don't know if this is a HIPAA violation. Somehow he got advanced notice on what Brooks's injury was, but it sounded like the most painful thing ever.

It was like, he had, he had to have like two tendons reattached to his shattered patella. Yeah. And it's, he said that it was a one month surgery or as a six month surgery, he's playing on it after one month. It was so bad of an injury that Hank bet against him. Yeah. Hank bet against him. Great job, Hank.

Hank, a theme of this show is we get someone who's, you know, what, do you guys have a future on who to win the Masters? I didn't bet against him. Oh, I didn't bet against him against him. No, don't wait. So you don't think he's going to win the Masters? Hank, I don't bet. I put my money where my mouth is.

I don't put my money on a future to win the Masters. I don't put on him to lose against Bubba Watson today. Yeah. It's a little bit of a Billy football, you know, head yourself. No, I don't bet. I knew he was going to come out and win the Masters or maybe he was going to come out because Big Cat was saying like his knees kind of messed up. He might come out, try too hard and realize that it wasn't, it's not his year and have

a bad round. So I bet against him in the first round, but I believe in him for the full term. Here's the thing. You don't understand, Hank. When you love someone as much as I love Brooks Kepka, I don't need to put money down. His my, you know what my future is on Brooks Kepka? Seeing him happy. Okay.

Seeing him succeed. Seeing him beat all the impossible odds of his injury. He's a walking paralyzed person. You can't put a dollar amount on Brooks putting on the green jacket this year. That to me would be the most iconic moment. I would actually, it would actually cheapen it if we were making money on that moment. Got it. And you know what?

This is just par for the course for Hank. He just, you're addicted to rooting against our friends. You're the opposite of Drake. You're imagine if I never bet the Brochies. That's what Hank says every day. I did bet the Brochies. No, you bet against the Brochies. No, you didn't.

I bet the Brochies. Our other Brochie, Max Homer, has been on him too. He's doing pretty well. He did reach out after the 5,000 to one to make the cut joke. He said that was not nice, but. Oh, interesting. But. We said that.

Wait, we told him I said this. It was a joke. It was a joke. And Max said, but I'm the ultimate jokester online. So that's funny. You can take it. Yeah. Instead of being like, hey, Max, I didn't bet.

Do you have a bet on Max? Yeah, I do. I do too. And he's losing it. What? So thanks, Max. What is he doing? You know who I really want to see?

You know who I really want to see? What are you doing fucking betting all these pairings? What are you? Wait. You're just. I'm riding high. You are. You are.

You're in the post. You know what you're in? You're in that post like, I figured out gambling mode. Yeah. I mean, I'm taking trips to Philly. He had that a few weeks ago. I did. I got humbled when he's like, hey, I want to go to Detroit next weekend because I want

to gamble some more. I was like, shut me up. I don't think so. I mean, the Brooks bet, it was Bubba Watson versus Brooks and Bubba Watson bogeyed three out of the last four holes. That's good. You deserve it. Yeah.

That's karma. That's the universe smiling upon us and taking a leak onto you. You deserve that shit. I'm also, I'm rooting for the guy. I think he's tied for a second right now or tied for third as we're recording this. His name is Zlotaurus. Zlotaurus? Like Clotaurus.

I would love to spend a weekend hearing Jim Nantz say Zlotaurus. Yeah. I think at ZLI, like if Zorro performed a female circumcision. There it is. Zlotaurus. If you do have a gambling problem, you should call 1-800-GAMBLER-HELP. There you go. Thank you, Hank.

You do have a gambling problem because you bet against our friends. Responsibly, though. That's a problem. Betting against our friends is a problem. But it's not irresponsible. It isn't, but it is also hurtful. It's an issue. Actually, I bet on him, so I don't really understand where you're coming from.

You only bet on him to have a defense ready when we said why'd you bet against him so you could be like, well, actually, I put $5 on him to win. Smart, right? Honestly, looking back on it, that Excel spreadsheet is one of the stupidest things I've ever done. It's a good idea. It was the dumbest thing you've ever done. I spent so much time trying to do it.

To squeeze out like two dollars? It wasn't fun. We did have a dad sighting at the Masters. Not the John Ramwell. I know. I saw that. Rory McElroy hit his dad with an iron shot. That was pretty sick.

Pretty funny. All right. What else we got? Oh, Sean Miller got fired from Arizona. I love college basketball's trend that it's like you either get fired or you get a lifetime contract like Bill Self. Did you see that Sean Miller, apparently, he's going to get an assistant coaching job in the NBA?

That seems like his immediate future, which is hilarious that someone who is... With the sons? Well, no. It's someone who is under sanctions and alleged sanctions and all these things and bad dealings with agents and everything, and then someone owes him a favor in the NBA because he's just completely becoming... That's what I'm saying. Yeah.

Like, huh. That's interesting. At the same time, that seems like the logical... Because he's not going to get hired anywhere in college basketball right now. The only place that would hire Sean Miller would be LSU, who currently has their own coach that they're just not going to fire real way because it's Louisiana and they don't care, and so anywhere else, there's probably going to be a show cause for him where he won't be able to get a job, so it does make sense he would go to the NBA, rehabilitate

himself. Who's the basketball version of Nick Saban, where if you're in trouble, you just go hang out with him for a couple months, and the next thing you know, you're hot again? Who would that be? Coach USA team in the summer. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Be on that staff. Yeah. Be on the staff. Yeah. Maybe Rick Petino. Rick Petino will get you under control. Yeah. I think it's going on the USA staff is like the big rehab, and you get to, you know, it's

not cheating, but Coach K just, you know, getting to be friends with all of the NBA All-Stars and then like when he goes on recruiting visits, being like, oh, you want me to FaceTime LeBron? Again, not cheating. Here's my goal. I would say that's a gray area, a major gray area. It's brilliant. No, I'd say that's brilliant. Pretty fucked up.

He cares about our country. Pretending to care about our country, but really there's some ulterior motives. The Army, you know, serves the country, clearly has a more passion for the country than anyone in this room. I would care about the troops we get. We very much do, Hank. I think that Coach K is essentially a war profiteer. Actually, I care so much about the troops.

I co-hosted ZBT today. Wow. Yeah. And then I said that if there was someone who needed to get my covering fire, I'd pick Billy. Thanks. Yeah, no problem. I care about the troops so much.

I have several wins in war zone, which you don't have. Yeah. Because you treat your troop body like there's another one hanging in the closet. Also, I care about the troops so much that I, at the end of co-hosting ZBT, I said that I would, I'm thinking about joining the Marines and then they said that I'm past the age limit. So unfortunately, I won't be able to, but I would have. They should do it. They should do a senior tour.

A senior tour. It's not a bad idea, actually. All right. Anything else that we got cooking in the sports world? Yeah. Kind of a light, like little dull, you know, Masters are going to be great this weekend, but there's like, we had a billion day baseball games yesterday, which are awesome. Shout out to Pablo Sandoval.

Pablo Sandoval, comeback player of the weekend, comeback player of the year. He's hit two dingers now as a designated hitter and he's fatter than he was ever. I love it. That should be the new NFT. Like the people forget, we don't talk enough about the clip where Pablo Sandoval is so fat that when he swings, his belt exploded. That is, that's maybe the best video clip of all time in any genre. That should be an NFT.

Yes. Or Bartolo Cologne hitting the home run. Yeah, both those clubs. Now one is the best. But he was like, Bartolo was a little, he was shorter. Pablo was just probably 300 pounds, right? Yeah. He's a big, he's a big, big boy.

Also, we got an answer to the Shohei Otani question that we asked Dan Herron. This is just baseball not having fun, but technically when he hits as a pitcher, there is no DH. That's what the answer is. Oh, so in the AL, you make the choice to have a DH. So he technically isn't playing two positions at once, which again makes it so not fun. Like it should be his DH and pitcher. Agreed.

So that if he gets pulled from the game, he can stay in as the DH. But wait, what if you have, if you have a position player that sucks at hitting on that team, are you allowed to not have that person hit? No, I don't think so. That's only for a pitcher? Yeah. Which would be the ultimate, like, could you imagine being an MLB player and being like, hey, we're not going to have you hit today?

It'd be like Little League when they, like when, when they have, every kid has to play like a half an inning and they're like, all right, go into right field for this half. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Also, I unveiled my formula today. It started to hit already. And it gets the pirates every single day.

Every day bet against the pirates. And I think there was a guy that did it back in 2010, 2011, and it made national news at the time. I kind of kept that in my back pocket for the next time the pirates were going to be like noteworthy bad. Yeah. I think their overrunner was 59 and a half. And when you have a position player that pitches in a game in like the first four games

of the season, that's, that's a good red flag for this season has already been sold out. Yes. I bet literally every single game against the pirates and hope for the best this year. Yes. So far. So good. All right. Let's, should we do our interview with Eli Manning?

Billy, did you have anything else? How you doing, Billy? Doing well. Doing well. Talking to my killer. That was incredible. The walkoff hit. That was fucking incredible that you just answered my question without.

Well, he forgot that we were recording a podcast. I wasn't expecting, I wasn't expecting. You thought we were just having guy time. I love it, Billy. We're just blowing out. Oh. Oh, you say embrace debate on the Mets. Yeah, Michael Conforto leaning into a pitch with the old Barry Bonds elbow pads, which

if, if you're too young to remember like the end of the Barry Bonds error, he would go up like a night at medieval times to the plate with so many fucking shin guards and elbow pads and people would hit him and it's like he doesn't even take an hour to like take him off and then go walk the first. Awesome. I kind of respect the move that Conforto did. Now I would hate it if it was done against my team or any team that I was rooting for at the time, but it was a strike.

The pitch was a strike and he leaned into the strike zone with his elbow pad. It hit him. And then Keith Hernandez had an aneurysm afterwards like this is Bush League crap. Get this guy out. Get this guy off the Mets. This guy shouldn't be playing right now. You don't play the game that way. Major disrespecting the game moment, but it was hilarious.

It's the Mets and the fact that it happened against the Marlins. I think it's probably no offense, Jake, probably the best team for it to happen to much like we were saying that Gonzaga, we could slay to them all we wanted because there aren't a lot of Gonzaga fans like the Marlins. There aren't too many Marlins fans. Did you see, by the way, speaking of Gonzaga, did you see the story that came out that Baylor found out Gonzaga had bought six bottles of champagne, which that seems like a weird number, I guess because they're college kids and there's only so many kids that are over

21. They got ready for the championship with champagne before the game and Baylor found out. It was bulletin board material. It's like the Mike McCarthy watermelons. Like if I had known that fact, that simple fact, it's a no brainer that Baylor wins. Jake, do you have anything to say about the, we haven't seen you in a couple of days. You're back. Yeah.

How are you feeling without college basketball? Are you okay? I'm all right. Yeah. It's better sweet because we got so many great memories, but there's no games to look forward to. There are a ton of memories. There are so many memories.

There are 68 memories. So many memories. By the way, I omitted a few. I think I got to 40. Whoa. Hell yeah. 68 plus you guys each had one. Dave had one.

I can start like that was part of the list or taking away. You didn't have to get yourself to like 70%. In some way. Yeah. Wow. All right. Okay. You did call the Grand Canyon one too, which we should all acknowledge.

Yes. That was, yeah, you got that one. You were right about that. All right. Oh, Bryson. Oh, he's plus five. See what I'm saying? Doesn't he look a little fatter?

He does. Yeah. Like it's just, it's something about the pluses. When you get the plus next to your name or like when a reliever comes in and his ERA is like 14, it just quickly goes from power to fat. Also when you see like the red outline on the numbers sometimes, it just, it looks like a golden corral price tag. And that's, yeah, he does look, he looks a little chunkier right now.

And also when you're sad, you look fat and he definitely has like a sulkiness to him right now. Right. And so yeah, that's like, yeah, at least 25 pounds. Yeah. When we're on a live stream and like things are going well for me, I look skinny and then when things are going bad, it quickly becomes fat. Yeah.

Exactly. Like when you lay down on the ground at the end of Mario Party after getting destroyed by Bowser again, we should place a more Mario. Yeah. I'm down. We should do that. Should we do that? Mario Kart.

Now Mario Party was way more fun. Let's do a Mario Party at sometime in the next week. Let's have a little Mario Party. One last thing with baseball, they have, they're checking Trevor Bauer's balls. Oh. His balls are being examined right now. So he has had 10 plus strikeouts in his two start. He's the first pitcher to have Major League Baseball stepping because they said they're

going to do this this year. And if they notice higher spin rates, they're going to take one of the balls. So they took one of Trevor Bauer's balls today and they're going to, I don't know what they're going to do. X-ray it. That would be incredible if he cheated. A forensic analysis. Yeah.

Because like he was the one that noticed the spin rate increase on the Astros, pointed that out, made a big deal out of that. And then it's like the weapons that he designed are coming back to bite him in the ass. I need it. I need it. That would be a great story. That would be, that would be the ultimate, the Astros getting saved story. Yeah.

Because everyone would talk about that. All right. Let's get to Eli Manning. It's going to be a great interview. Before we do that, PFT, you got a quick word? Yeah. I want to talk to you guys about Me Undies. Me Undies believes that comfort is about more than what's touching your skin.

Okay, we now welcome on a very, very special guest.

It is Future Hall of Famer, Eli Manning. He is, he and his brother, Peyton, I don't know if you heard of him, launching an exclusive NFT artwork entitled The Manning Legacy Collection. It's coming out Friday, April 16th. The whole collection is going to be out that day. Some of this stuff goes supporting children's hospital. There's going to be the helmet catch. There's going to be all kinds of cool stuff.

NFTs are the rage, so this is going to be exciting. Eli, we are very pumped to have you on. Did I do anything wrong by saying Future Hall of Famer there? Are you a Hall of Famer? Start with a hard question. Yeah, start with that. It's not up to me, so if you want to say it, you're welcome to. It's not something in the script I say, hey, when you introduce me, you have to say this

or anything of that sort. So, you know, it's one of those deals, you know, I kind of enjoy and laugh about the conversations about it and the fact that it is kind of create, you know, been such an issue and not just now, I feel like it's been talked about for the last five years. But it's not something that I lose sleep about and if, you know, if it happens one day, it'd be a great honor. If you were to vote on yourself for the Hall of Fame, would you vote you in? Um, you know, maybe, hey, I don't know, it depends how I was feeling that day, I guess.

Good. I don't know. It's, you know what, I think of all just the great players and, you know, sometimes to think of yourself belonging with such, you know, legends and icons, you know, I'm not that conceited and not that confident in myself to say that I belong with those people. Um, and so, but, uh, if, if, if they invite me to, uh, join them and to be amongst them, uh, I would gladly take a seat and it would be, as I said, it'd be a great honor.

So some of this NFT stuff, you guys have, uh, paying homage to the Manning family, the first, first family of football and Cooper. So does Cooper have it the best because, you know, Peyton's Hall of Fame or you're going to be in the Hall of Fame, but Cooper basically has the entire career of, oh, well, he's actually the best Manning, but, you know, injuries derailed his career. Does he get that? Like you guys aren't serious when you say Cooper was, was the best, you know, at football, right?

Like you're just, you're just being nice to him. Well, you know, he was a, he was a receiver that ran a 4-7. I mean, I assume he was going to be the best NFL player of all time, right? I mean, it's a no brainer and there's a lot of 4-7 receivers out there that, you know, are better in the Hall of Fame. And so, you know, with Cooper, um, you know, he's, he's been the best brother and he handled it so well. And I think a lot of people might have had a hard time kind of understanding how you

get injuries, something you're really just born with that wasn't an injury that happened in football and that your career gets shortened and you, you know, watch your two, you know, brothers go on to have success and play this game, but you know, he's enjoyed coming to every game. You know, there's, I've never, I've never got him a sideline pass in my life yet. I've seen him on the sideline of 45 of my games before. So he's a guy that kind of figures things out. He's wheeling and dealing.

He enjoys watching us. He cheers for us. He lives, you know, used to live every Sunday right there with us. And so he's had a, he's had a good run just being, being a fan of football and, and, and following Peyton I's career. One thing that I do think that your head and shoulders, the best at in your family when it comes to playing quarterback is you take a very elegant sack. You know, you've, I know that you've practiced.

There's an art to how sometimes you'll take a sack before the guy is able to hit you. And it's actually, it's really smart. I've talked with some like running backs about this. There's an art to falling down so that you don't get hurt. You are the king of knowing when to self sack yourself so you don't get hit. Is that something that you practiced? Like you did stop, drop and roll drills or was there just like an alarm clock that would go off in your head?

Cause sometimes you would notice if there was a guy coming directly from behind you and you, there's no chance you'd be able to see him, but you could like feel his presence. Well, I think as you play, you kind of start to learn a presence and, and, and you know, there's, there's times when you can escape and times when you try to escape. And I think it's a little bit as you, you know, as you get older, it has some of those you know, fast twitch movements start to leave you. You realize that, you know, there's probably a better chance of something worse happening me trying to, you know, do some, some moves to get out of here and spin and, and avoid

this. And sometimes you just got to say, Hey, I'm in, I'm in a bad, I'm in a bad spot right here. And let's kind of avoid a worse play and, and go down. You know, you don't want to ever, it's not giving up. It's not, you know, quitting. It's just a, you know, a combination of, like you said, avoiding a huge hit. You know, there's a time where you can kind of, you know, go, go with the hit a little

bit or be able to throw it and kind of turn your back to a hit. You don't take it right, you know, hit right through the face. So, you know, you see, you know, a lot of quarterbacks, it is important to be out there and to be out there, you know, for the whole game and to be out there for the next week. And so if you take every single big hit that's coming your way, it's going to be tough. It's tough to do that. And so it is a little bit about kind of a learning curve of how to take hit, how to stay healthy. So the other signature thing from your career, besides the two Super Bowls, which we should

note that in the longevity, which it's still incredible whenever a quarterback plays for any type of streak in terms of starts, because it's such a difficult position and, and you get hit so many times was your face, the Manning face. Do you, do you, did you know, like when the Manning face would get captured where you like, Oh crap, I had my mouth open there and I was staring off into space. The camera probably got that one. Do you, because I know you probably didn't pay a lot of attention to social media, but it is a phenomenon and it is something I dearly, dearly miss from both you and your brother

after you retired. No, I didn't, I never noticed it and I think, you know, obviously social media wasn't always around and there weren't always these memes and there weren't these pictures of it. So like, you know, you had, I had a good, you know, 10 years of playing football, whether it was college or my first years in NFL, we're like, you know, that stuff, what really wasn't out there, it wasn't caught. So I'd already kind of got into my habits of, of kind of standing there watching the game or reflecting on a play and you're not thinking about the face that you're making,

whether your mouth's open or you're just kind of wandering off for a little bit. It was never a concern to then, you know, I think at that, once it kind of came out and you see it, you're like, well, it is what it is. If, you know, I got too many things to worry about during a game, I can't worry about my, my, you know, face that I'm making at every moment when the camera could be on me. And they usually, it usually catches you when something good is not happening. When something bad is happening, that's usually when it's like, all right, let's pan, you know, see what Eli's face he's making here, kind of the, just mouth open, just, you know,

no emotion face going on right now. So, you know, You know it, you know it. I, if you would like, if you had taken my phone in the year 2014 or 15 and looked at the pictures, you would think I was your stalker because you're like, why is, why are there so many pictures of my face in, in your phone? Yes, I mean, that could be a great collection. Oh, we should have to get it.

We should have to get it. Yeah, we give us one real quick. Give us one. Give us your best interpreter. There it is. It's perfect. Yeah, we should have frozen. Oh, no, he's fine.

Actually, you know what? I bet I guarantee you every football writer would vote for you to get into the Hall of Fame if that was your bust. We would all love to see it. And it's funny because like, obviously, if you were to take a picture of me at any given moment of any given day, the face that I'm just casually making probably looks a million time stupider. But it just, you know, it happened to be you on the sidelines.

I think that cameras actually, like they told the producers would tell the camera guys, like, instead of trying to find an attractive woman in the stands to zoom in on, just like, keep this camera, this is going to be the Eli camera for the afternoon. But yeah, it was a, it was a fun part of the song. The Eli camera and they just, there's one camera on me and they're like, all right, we got it. He's making it. Three minutes.

Go, go, camera two on it. In a weird way too, it's, it's like, I know it's not a compliment, but it should be a compliment because you and your brother and like the Manning family were such an integral part of like every Sunday. You know what I mean? It just felt like the presence was there in the league and it definitely has felt weird without you guys there. Do you, when, when is Arch, can we get him in the league?

Like, can we fast track this? Your nephew, can we get him in the league tomorrow? I, you know what, my, my, my parents have kind of said the same thing. It was a weird year for them last year, you know, not having a Sunday of, you know, watching one of their kids play football has been going on for, for over 20 years where that was kind of their, their routine. I think they enjoyed it a little bit. Just not, you know, it's not just a Sunday.

It's kind of the losses or the weeks leading up on the report after a loss or what's in the media on a Monday, Tuesday after a game. I don't, I don't think they missed that part of it. But, you know, it was weird kind of when Peyton retired from me, not having to, you know, not getting to watch his games because I've been doing that since he was in high school. I was pretty much would watch every game in high school, college and the NFL to, to not have him around.

But, you know, definitely I do have my nephew, like you said, have, have Arch to watch. I can stream his games from high school football, which is crazy that that's a thing now. So, but streaming his and, you know, it's going to be fun getting to watch his, his career and, and for him to kind of go through the, you know, the, the life cycle of playing quarterback, whether it's high school, college and we'll see what happens after that. Yeah, you guys have done a pretty good job. I've, I've read a few things about him where you're trying to keep him kind of insulated and away from, because there is a lot of attention, obviously on him, given the family

that, that he comes from and the position that he plays. But big cat and I are kind of recruiting coordinators for Jackson State University. Our coworker, Dion Sanders is the head coach there. Would just going off what you know, do you think he would be open to taking a visit to Jackson State University? Not far from New Orleans, you know, it's only about two, two and a half hours away. It's an easy, easy drive. I think Dion, you know, Dion's a heck of a recruiter and, and it's a great program.

There's actually a lot, a great, great history of a lot of, a lot of guys at Jackson State going on to play in the NFL, a couple of Hall of Famers and, and, and there as well. So, you know, I think there's a possibility. I'll put in a good word for you. Okay. So that means we've, we've officially checked off our first box where we made contact with the family.

Yep. Okay. Perfect. More Eli Manning in a second, but a quick word from our friends at Black Buffalo. If you dip tobacco, you can stop right now and switch to Black Buffalo. What is Black Buffalo? Black Buffalo is a dip literally made from edible green leaves and food and great

Not in the SEC. So outside the SEC, which you know very well, what's your favorite college town to visit? Oh, you know, I haven't I haven't visited that many college towns outside the SEC, to be honest with you. You know, I'd love to, you know, you know, I have not been to any college games, really, besides, you know, when a recruiting visit to Texas when I was in high school and saw a game, which is a which is a pretty cool experience.

But I'd love to, you know, I'd love to go to Michigan or Ohio State or Notre Dame or go to Oklahoma or, you know, go go see Oregon to play. So there's, you know, there's kind of a list of places I'd love to go. Obviously, you know, the pandemic kind of threw that into a wrench last year of my first year of retirement. But, you know, I love I just, you know, I love the history of college football. I love the fans and the students and just some of the the cheers that go on. And so I'm excited about this, you know, a new project.

Get to see some of these these college towns and, you know, some of the, you know, the great history that's been made there. Yeah. Our producer Hank is a diehard Patriots fan. And I was just wondering if if you could apologize to him for one of the two Super Bowls, which one would you like to apologize for? Um, I would apologize. I apologize for the first one, the one in 07, just because then I know, you know,

I know it'd be nice if they, you know, went undefeated, went 19 or no. And yeah, it would have been nice. Yeah, that would have been probably been nice. That would have been, you know, they would have gone down to the greatest team of all time in the history of football. You know, no questions out with the all time greatest team ever to ever play the game of football, maybe in any sport, but now they're not, now they're not. So that's a that's a good apology that wasn't an apology.

So I want to get back to NFTs real quick. So the NFT artwork entitled the Manning Legacy Collection. If you could NFT, so if you could NFT one moment from your career that you aren't currently going to sell on April 16th, what would it be? Maybe an underrated like, hey, people don't talk about this moment, but I'd love to NFT it. I mean, I think we already answered that. I think it's just kind of the meat, you know, it's me staring at things.

I mean, I think, I think, I think you can go through a great, you know, so many options and just like what what I could be staring at or what I could be thinking and just in those moments. So I think we've I think we've created, you know, I think we're excited about that. I do think that that's the way to like, honestly, I own one NFT right now. I would spend probably five to ten thousand dollars just on NFTs of your face. And I'm just like a casual guy that's very like new to the market that you're

going to reach a whole new audience with the Manning face NFTs. That's the nicest thing you've ever said about me. Thank you. Yeah. So what made you get into the NFT market? Like, was this just a totally new, hey, everyone's doing it, but I didn't expect the Mannings to do it and it's kind of cool thing. I think what really got us interested, you know,

especially me is that, you know, you just retire and you're trying to reflect on your career and, you know, be able to create something that is so personal, that is so unique and to get an artist to kind of create a piece of art that kind of tells your story, your football story and to do it with Peyton, do it with your dad, to do some of you in college, some in the NFL, and to kind of, you know, use symbols and images and words to kind of, you know, tell that story of your football career and, you know, I thought with this new space and do it through the NFT where people can use it, they can trade it,

they can, you know, have that likeness to it and own, have that ownership of this digital item. And so I think it's, you know, kind of getting with the new times and getting in these alternative assets and it was just kind of a natural fit. They're really excited about it. So I had one last question. I know PFT has one after me, but so there is an NFT of Peyton's Omaha. Did he steal that from you?

So Omaha, it's kind of funny. Yeah, it has a long history of everything going on there. So I mean, originally, you know, the Patriots, you know, Tom Brady was using it back in probably 05 and 06. And his, you know, their quarterback coach, John Huffnagle, came from the Patriots to the Giants. Well, probably before that, he came to the Giants in 04 and he had it kind of in our playbook in 2004.

So, you know, Patriots are probably using that at 0102 at least. And so we started using it, you know, and then, you know, Peyton kind of made it famous just because, you know, just on, they turned up the mics a little bit louder, I think, in some of these games. And, and, and they caught him saying it in a playoff game where he said it like 58 times in a game and, you know, you could not help but just like wondering, why is he saying Omaha this many times? I've never heard anyone say that word.

It's not really a football word, you would think. That's that's crazy. So he stole it from you. So you should get all the, he owes you money from the commercials and everything. Yeah, I mean, you would think I'd get like a steak, maybe. You know, he's got like Omaha Steaks. He's got a key to the city in Omaha. You might, you know, you think he'd give me a couple of steaks, you would think.

Yeah, that's what you should have done that. Like your word should have been Rolex. And if you just say Rolex enough, you just get a sponsorship. Now you're thinking you're giving some, some young quarterbacks, some ideas. What words can we use? Listen, that's the kind of outside the box thinking we provided. Jackson State University. If you know any young quarterbacks that want to maximize their value in the future,

you just send them our way. We'll take great care of them. Yes. Thank you, sir. I think I know a guy. Our intern, our intern is not the smartest. He just texted us in the middle of this interview. He said, is Omaha to stop the Blitz D day reference Omaha Beach?

That's not it. Is it? That is not it. OK, good. All right. That was Billy football's question. My last question is just, do you consider Peyton to be a ring chaser? Oh, a ring chaser? Yeah. Meaning what? Meaning like he had to go join a super team to win his second Super Bowl. And you, you know, you stuck around with a giant

your whole career, you made you made it happen yourself. No, I don't consider Peyton a ring chaser. I think Peyton wanted to stay in Indianapolis. You know, he had obviously four neck surgeries and, you know, that kind of prevented him. You know, Indianapolis went and drafted Andrew Luckin and release Peyton. So, you know, after that, you know, he was, you know, he was a free agent. I don't know. I don't know.

I don't, you know, I don't know if Denver was it's not like he, you know, went there and brought a bunch of people in to join his team. Or if they were really considered a Super Bowl favorite at that time. And so, you know, I think he went in there, kind of changed the culture a little bit and made them a contender every year, you know, to win the Super Bowl. So I think I'd say he's far from from a ring chaser. Yeah. Well, Eli, thanks so much. We appreciate it. We know you got to run.

And just so you know, every time the Cowboys and the Giants play on Sunday Night Football, we are just fully expecting you to come out of the tunnel because that feel like we watched that game seven billion times in the course of our lives. It was like, I feel like it was on a lot. You know, every, every opening game, every, you know, first day of the season, that was kind of an automatic. I felt like for a long time. Yes. Yes. But thank you. We appreciate it. And any time you want to come back on, we'd love to have you.

What? My chest, because I had COVID. OK, sorry. So get vaccinated, bro. Are you just rubbing that in Big Cat's face like you're not going to get COVID? No, I just think you're better than them. No, no, no, no. Actually, my chest feels fine. My other COVID except for my other.

See, it's already affecting me. Your other COVID. Yeah, my other Firefest is that my girlfriend's on vacation without me. Oh, where? Not somewhere nice. Ruba. Oh, fellas, verbal meme. This will be good for YouTube when when someone's on vacation and I'm not. Damn. Is that the fist?

Yeah, OK, with the vein to get my hand on. Did OK, I got to know your other boyfriend taker. Yeah, that's that's what I'm curious about. I'm a gals trip. Is that what she said? Yeah, it is. You're not nervous. What's her? What's her best girlfriend's name? Who's out there? Charles Francesca.

Oh, Frank. Yeah, Francis. Brianna Ryan, you talking about Kelly? You talking about Ms. Chicken Fry? Yep. OK, that sounds like single mingle. Maybe getting a little wild. I mean, you guys are assholes, but sure. Can we go on vacations?

Great question, Billy. No, I like we all know your life is big cat earlier said he likes vacations. And I was I almost fell out of my chair. Billy, your life is a vacation. Like your life is a vacation. I know. Verbal meme. This is Hank this weekend while Rhea's out

town and it's a picture of Stan March covered in jizz. Oh, yeah. There's going to be a lot of pent up normie, huh? Yeah, he's going to be looking for. Maybe maybe toss on some brassers for him. I know, it was rough and rowdy. That was what got him going last time. The ring girls?

I don't know. Bobby Lang was right before. The violence title fight. Wait, Billy, did did your dog get a boner to Billy? No, this was the original picture. Billy would be so honored. He's Romans pipes. He would be so honored to know that he was giving animals erections again. Still, he'd be like, still got it.

Yep. That frog thing was way in the past. Is that it, Hank? Yeah, that's it. All right. I have one other one. Yeah, do it. No, I don't know. I don't know.

I might cut this just because I don't want it to somehow get back to me. I'm sure you've thought about talking about like dog park drama, big cap of four, but I just don't want it to somehow get back to this person. And then have a dog park drama is great. That's not even drama. Well, there's drama where it's like, there's a group of people that are always having drinks and I show up and they never say anything to me. I just stand on the side.

You've got to be the one to initiate. I don't want to do that. That's too awkward for me. Listen, OK, that's not the drama. That's not even the drama. Before you get to the drama, that's not even drama. Dog, I used to take it off my mind to a dog park where it was literally like everyone was best friends with each other.

And you just have to make a decision within the first three or four trips. Am I going to be a dog park person or not? And I think I saw a small talk. I'm not going to shame, but I'm very comfortable just watching my dog play and then leaving and not having to talk to him. Same. They just did a drink sometimes. I'm like, PR 101. Yeah. Bring a blunt.

No, you need to bring your own. You need to bring your own drink. Step it up. It always felt it always felt a little weird. Like, I feel like I just want to get my dogs some exercise and then I'm going to go hang out with my friends. I know, but it's kind of like when someone's like buying shots. Yeah, I'll do a shot.

Like, you know, I don't think about it. But then when a lady's walking around with giving out people like seltzers, I'm like, I kind of won't. I think they think that you're a cop. I think that's what your problem is. Definitely give off cop vibes. What you need to do, Hank, you need to you need to have Normie like run nearby them and then just call Normie by his name really loudly.

So they learn your dog's name. That's actually the best way to meet those people. Because then they start calling you. They learn your dog before they learn his dad. Oh, look, Normie's here today. And then you're like, yeah, he misses you guys. And then boom, conversation starter. You got any more of that Hennessy and then boom, you're in.

No, I'm with you, though, Hank. I don't I think you should bring your own drinks because the minute you become like a true dog park person, I think it just becomes your whole life. Just a lot of talk. Like, I think you then have to hang out with them outside of the dog park, which is like, oh, absolutely not. So that's the thing.

I don't think that there is a hangout out. The second somebody offers the second somebody in the dog park group is like, we should hang out in real life. At that point, it becomes a little too real for no, but there's definitely some dog park people that were like, they're down to the crossfit. They got dogs to make friends. All right. So what happened?

There's just a dog there named Grandpa. That's a cute name. And. That's the drama. It's not drama. That's what I'm saying. It's not drama. I just I haven't gotten it off my mind. Grandpa, what kind of dog? This is very important.

I'm not going to say that. No, tell us the weight. I actually don't even know the weight. I don't. OK, I was going to say if Grant, Grandpa has to be a big dog. Yeah, it's not how small, pretty similar to Norman. Oh, that's bad. So it's like a Chihuahua rat to your size. I don't like it.

I think Grandpa works if you have like a hundred and twenty pound dog that's like just like, oh, here comes Grandpa. Don't put on put on put on kind of that. But a little like run dog, just like running around people, calling a grandpa. Nah, so you're just thinking about grandpa all day. Yeah, can't get grandpa out of your mind. Yeah. What do you think is an old dog? I don't know.

I mean, this is actually here's how you get in with these people. I don't want to. I thought you said that you wanted shots. Why I said it's like FOMO. You just got to get I get quick bouts of FOMO, but OK, it dissolves quickly. I realize I don't have to have a small talk with these people. You just want one shot. You want to be offered a shot.

Yeah. OK. Easy way to do that is just because I guarantee there's a big overlap between the people who do post on social media about getting their vaccines. Unlike us, Hank, we don't mention that publicly. I'm honestly nervous about this entire conversation because I wear a giant sticker. I feel like I'm not going to be able to go to the dog park. I think there's listeners. Yeah. You are a sticker that says, yeah, what I got today.

Then they'll be like, oh, congratulations. And then they'll give you a shot. Hold on. Time out. How old is the person who owns grandpa? Youngish, like I'm probably going to grow. I am. No. OK, so our bros there. OK, but that people there that I get. But there's trust your instincts.

They'll be like, yo, dude, I've been thinking about that about grandpa for a while. And you might get a drink now to have people recognize you there. Yes. So then you're good. Yeah, I think grandpa is a great name. It's a it's a beautiful. No, no, no, no, no, no. You got to sewer the name grandpa to the other people. That's the conversation. They'll be like, yeah, it's a little ridiculous, isn't it?

What if she's the ringleader and turns them all against me? You should say, you know, you should take that chance. But I don't want to take that chance. I think grandpa is a great name. She's like, where's grandma? I I thought it was. No, I'm not going to. It's a great name. It's a great name. Say it.

It's a great name. I think it's a great name. Say it. Beautiful dog. This is good. Well, the dog dog parks are funny. It's very weird. Yeah, it's it's interesting, interesting, interesting place. Yeah, you got to keep your new knees loose. That's the big tip in a dog park.

Yeah, you'll get taken out from behind. Always got to keep your knees a little bit bent or lean against the fence. Yeah. No, seriously, you get fucking, you get smoked by like a good, like golden retriever in the back of the knees. You blow your ACL out. There was there was one point where I took Leroy to a dog park

and he picked up a tennis ball that was on the ground and brought it over to me because he was a good boy. And the person who owned that tennis ball came over and got mad at me because he punctured it with his teeth. I was like, well, you brought it. It's a dog. You brought a tennis ball to a dog park and my dog saw your balls. And now you're mad because you can't play tennis

with this ball anymore that you brought to the dog park. That's also there's always there's always a bulldog at the dog park that gets the tennis ball and never gives it up. And it's always so fun. It is the best. They just destroy it. They lay down. Yeah. And the owners like, I'm so sorry. It's like, dude, it's OK.

You got a bulldog. Yeah. Like they will never give up ball. Hey, just bring beers. Just just roll in with like a 12 pack of Coors Light. Yeah, but it's just a small, I'm not a small talker. Not built for that life. Are you a long talker? No, I'm just a not a talker.

Yeah. Well, I'll talk. I'll talk but the small talk like conversations that so how about going nowhere when it starts? Yeah. And it ends up going nowhere and you just wasted 20 minutes. Well, let's practice. Talk about nothing. Oh, what's the word? Where do you work?

I'm like, oh, I would do like audio engineering. I try. I try. Yeah, I don't I just don't want to. I don't want to like I do video production. Yeah, you should be like, I'm the I'm the grandpa of a Jenga league. Well, like I like it. Play Barcel app downloaded right now. Yes.

Spent in Chicago's contest closed tomorrow. I just don't. I, you know, because once the Barcel conversation, part of my take is opens a new can of worm. But if you say like, oh, I work for a podcast, you're like, OK, fucking weirdo. Yeah, no, that does never work. Oh, what podcast, man?

I just say sports media. What I say, video production, usually. Yeah, hopefully they don't inquire more. Yeah, I still say I'm a blogger because that's a great way to just in the conversation. Immediately. Yeah. No one wants to ask a follow up question about that. That's true. They're like, oh, sorry.

Yeah. Oh, sorry. Sorry if it's taking a bad turn. They're like, sorry, I asked. Yeah. All right. P.F.T. your firefest. My firefest of the week is that I've been unfairly labeled as the horny guy. Oh, yeah. So online. Yeah, it is.

I'm being slut shamed. Yes. And I'm not that. I can't even slut shamed. I can't know. You're just I can't even innocently respond to like a gin, seltzer, sweet, I have. Slut shamed. Heaven forbid that happens.

And Billy went out and bought a bonk stick. Oh, nice. To bonk me. I'm not horny. I'm not horny. I'm not horny. And you know what? We were talking about this before the show. You're not horny. Billy's not on steroids.

Yeah. Yeah. I love the name. You guys, I swear I'm not horny. I'm not horny right now. I'm not even thinking about sex at all. But I'm kind of thinking about sex. But I'm also saying that like we took our eye off the ball as a society, everyone's concerned

with being the horny police. We we stopped caring about people capping online. No one's accusing people of being capped anymore. The only people are capping about not being horny. Thank God you're 28. Because if you were 36, that would be the lamest sex ever. No, I'm just saying like everyone, we as an internet used to be great about being like,

yo, that dude's capping right now. And then people just forgot about it. And now we're all concerned with, oh, this guy's horny. This guy's like you never worry about capping. Dude, I just discovered what capping actually means. This guy possibly has a semi erection right now. Let's bonk him to death. Cap.

And so it's everything. This guy's replying to Halle Berry swimsuit pictures, but he's not horny. It's everything that I tweet is now, like people are capping about me being horny because it's like, yo, PFT is for Halle Berry. I don't know how you could make it worse, but you did. Because we're all gonna be talking about capping now.

Capping's back. Yeah. I don't know if this is gonna work. That's what you're trying to do. That's cap right now. You're trying to switch cap with the horny owl. I saw like a bunch of people today start to talk about cap again.

And I was like, yeah, that's a good point. Let's talk about cap. Colin? No, I'm not, no. That's cap. You're cap right now. You're cinnamon toast cap. We should start for it.

We should take that conversation. I can't believe it's not cap. What team should, what team would want Colin Kaepernick? He should do another tryout. He should do another tryout. Yeah. Yeah. Well, actually the perfect time was for the bears.

Like I can't believe any Dalton has a job, but not cap. Yeah. Then we'd all be talking, and no one would even talk about my dick anymore. Yeah. But it's just. It's not your dick. It's you.

You're just, you're running a muck with a horny accusations because there's a quote to Halle Berry. I haven't made any accusations. I have just said the word bonk. And she said, tell me something I don't know. And so I wanted to talk to Halle Berry about what she was doing. Wasn't the tweet from like, like a month ago too? No, it was like a few days ago when three buyers found it.

I didn't know that she was wearing it three days later. All right. My fire fest. Well, it's not a fire. Well, it is a fire fest because I don't know how to say it. So I'm just going to say it. Ooh, you get to get the fucking thing ready. I'm having another child.

Bonk. So the fire fest part is that I, having a second kid is like, it's not a big announcement. First was obviously a big announcement. That's a life change to having a second is like, Hey, we're just keep moving. This is pretty sick. Let's have another one.

Yeah, right. A sequel. So I forgot to like, I've told, I told all the guys here a few months ago. I forgot to tell basically anyone besides like my close friends and like some people in the office. No, I have to tell everyone. So that's all sympathy weight that you have right now.

Yeah, that's sympathy weight. Yeah. Can you believe that I've, I've been doing all this and I have another kid coming. Damn, what a hero. I'm actually not a hero. Can I make a name suggestion? Yeah.

So you don't know the sex. Grandpa. Should we do a sex reveal? It's going to be a girl. So that's the other fire. Grandma. I am going to, as of June, so it's June 15th to due date.

Uh, as of June, I'm going to be forced to do a podcast with a bunch of misogynists and I'm no longer going to be a misogynist. So you, well, you're going to have to figure that out. The easy way, just toss in your bio. Yeah. And I'm going to be like, oh shit. You know, like I, for some reason,

I just love watching women's sports now. Like that just happened overnight. So big, the transformation, even though I already loved watching it. Are you going to, are you going to let your daughter read barstelsports.com? Yes. Well, I don't think it'll be around by the time she can read.

Yeah. Whoa. Well, actually, no, I was thinking more like the time that she can conceptualize it, like 15. I wasn't saying like actually read like five years from now. Yeah. Yeah. And no, no, no, no.

I was saying more like fifth. Yeah, yeah. Do you know something that we don't know? No, I, no, I was, I was thinking more like 15, 16. Yes. Of course. She will be a huge Nate Dog fan and Greenie and Jerry Sorton.

Yeah. Jerry Sorton and White Sox. You might not be around. No, but seriously, it is awesome. You shut up, Hank. I should, I will say this. It's funny because I think there's a lot. I don't really talk about my child and my upcoming child

much, but I do think there's a lot of dads and moms that listen to this show because when I dropped a bluey thing with who is on, who is, who do we interview? And I talked about bluey with them. Waka. Waka. I had so many tweets about bluey. So I think there's a big strong contingent of parents

that listen to this show. So yeah, I'm excited. Being a dad is like the coolest thing ever. I'm just going to say that. Not to be sappy, but I fucking like me and my son, like we throw out hard all the time, like vibes to the moon, Billy. Think about like your coolest friend and just being able

to live with them and then you get to hang out with them and you're just chilling. That's my dog. Yeah, right. Right. Your dog and my son, the same thing. But yeah, so don't make a big deal of it, but that's the big announcement.

Billy. There was a image circulating, leading the internet of my large appendage. Your nose. It was a bad. Very pointy. I never realized how pointy it was. No, it was the, so basically I got FaceTime.

You got Chloe? By a bunch of coworkers at Barstool. And I was like, oh man, like they're including me in these group FaceTimes. Like I don't spend much time around the office. So I was like, wow, like I'm in the club. So I hit accept and I realized I was holding my phone way too close to my face.

And I do have a larger nose, but the angle of the camera. Yeah, it's pretty. Is it the deviated septum? Yeah, it's, you know. Where'd that come from? You know, I was born with a larger nose and then years of contact sports, helmets coming down. Oh, so you're making this about being a jock?

Yeah, I mean, you know, you get some scar tissue on top of a large nose and it looks pretty big. You would not be invited to Dustin Johnson's after party when he wins the Masters with nose like that. Vacuuming it all up, bro. Just Hoover and Sneesh. No. Go like that for me.

Gator tails aren't good for games. Go like this. Oh, how'd you learn that face? Give me one big silly. It's also whale tails? I have no idea. Yeah, right. Are you talking about eating ass?

No. Talking about what Billy's talking about. Bonk and baby. There we go. That's cap. We're talking about Coke and you all of a sudden are talking about eating ass. Crazy.

Jesus Christ. Some great memes though, if you haven't seen the pictures. Although I guess the funniest joke was from Sopranos which I didn't know because I fucking stopped watching it. But someone said Billy could smoke a cigarette in the rain to be just fine. Yes, yes. The Nigel Thornberry references were funny.

I will admit. You got a beak. It's not a nose. It's a beak. It's not a beak. It's definitely. It was just bad. I've seen pictures of them where they look fatter than they are.

Well, the duck's picture is just short. It was such a bad angle. It was one of the worst angles I've ever seen. It made the nose look not only big already but long. It's like a Dorito. Yeah, like the pointy. You know how we always joke about how you're always late to places? We should specify that your nose is always on time

because it gets here like five minutes early. I'm like, it was his early. All right, Jake, you have a firefest? Yeah, so I've been at home this week. And I noticed that one of the signs on my wall is missing a thumbtack. And I'm scared I'm going to step on it. Oh, there it is, thumbtack.

What? That is predicament. That could have been for a while and like it got vacuumed up. A good firefest because it's like the mental anguish is worse than actually stepping on it. But it could have been for four months and I'm safe. And it's vacuumed up. Or it could have been two days ago and I can't find it.

Do you have any pictures like when you did a FaceTime with us or when you when you snipe dinner, zoom in? No, I go home and tweet it. Why don't you just, I mean, well, no, your place is too big to find it. Is that your only firefest? Did you ask your maid if she could find it? I don't have a maid.

Oh, shit. Sorry, you're living nanny. Nope. I live with me, myself, and I. Is that your only firefest? I have a few others, but they didn't make any others. I don't know what's what does Hank want to talk about? A video, a certain video series?

It sounds like you want to talk about it. Oh, I was going to bring it up. Oh, yeah. No, it is actually interesting. No, it is a firefest. All right, yeah, Marsh who went to Syracuse, Medill, and ever heard of it. He doesn't know how to say the word mortgage.

Oh, yeah. Yeah. He doesn't know how to say the word mortgage. He pronounces it mortgage. Not if you listen to Thursday Night's championship show. Give it, say it. Give it a shot right now. Mortgage.

Oh. The problem is that there's a YouTube video that has you saying mortgage multiple times. Also, it was all the same time. I said it once. No. But they replay it. Oh, so OK.

That, that, that changed it. That makes no better. It was one recorded. Yeah, all right. That makes better. We thought you were just saying it wrong the entire time. No, I said it once. Wait a second.

Hank, are you playing dumb? Did you hear the mortgage? And then you inserted it into the video multiple times? This is where it's like P.M.T. literally thinks I'm Oz. Yeah, what are you doing, P.M.T.? Literally nothing to do with this video. With the fart sound effects that always come out. No, it was a voiceover.

And they had me record the ad afterwards. Don't take a cold shower, horny boy. They had me record the ad afterwards. And I read it once. And they plug in every time there's a player profile. That makes it way better. Yeah, because every time I heard it, I was like. It was shocking.

No, I was shocked. I've gotten criticism in my broadcasting career. I've gotten destroyed for this. Well, no, so here's what it is. You get an F minus at Medill. Here's what it is. Because they replayed it the first time I heard it. I was like, that was crazy.

But it was probably just one time thing. And then they kept, every time I heard it, I was like, Jake, Jake doesn't know I said mortgage. Like, I had Jake mortgage. What was going through your head when you said mortgage? I genuinely thought that's it. I didn't know the tea was silent. You didn't?

Wait, you just learned that the tea in mortgage was silent? Yeah. Wow. You should just blame it on the pink Whitney you're drinking in the booth. Yeah, that's for you. I'm not blaming anybody. You were drunk.

Just take accountability, Billy. Pro tip, say you were drunk. It was footage of you drinking pink Whitney during the broadcast. Take accountability. That's a fact. It's my fault. I messed up.

That's deep, deep drives to the left. There we go. All right, let's do some numbers. Send everyone on their way. Happy Masters, snap, oh, by the way. How about you guys, like, I'm going to have a, well, not this year, but a double dad, a two kid masters nap hits a little different.

Yeah. Are you going to get a darker pair of the new balances? I have to. 34. Dude, shout out, Steven Shea, who when he, he has a boy around the same age as my son. And he, unironically use it, no, a son. He unironically uses the hashtag boy dad,

because we don't get included in everything. But now I can use both. OK, 99. 32. 8, 8, 8. Big Papiortes. 80. I'm never going to win that.

Love you guys. How funny is that? Do you say sharks don't go to school? Church. What does that mean? Is that from Finding Nemo? Is that a Nemo? No, it's just got something.

Take me home. I'll be gone for a day or two. Needless to say. I'm upset if I keep going away. I'll be gone for a day or two. Say out to me. It's no better to be safe than sorry. Say out to me.

It's no better to be safe than sorry. Take me home. Take me home. I'll be gone for a day or two. Needless to say. I'm upset if I keep going away. Needless to say. You're all the things I've got to remember.

Shining away. I'll be coming for you anyway. Take on me. Take me home. I'll be gone. I'll be gone.
