The Minnesota Vikings are my pinky team.
Starting point is 00:02:49 Okay. All right. It's official. It's official. They are not winning. We got an early draw. No where close. They're owing to.
Starting point is 00:02:57 And I actually thought Kirk cousins played okay tonight when he had time to pass. And when he didn't have time, he stunk. But when he had time, I think all four of his touchdown passes were from like a relatively clean box. Yeah, he was on his third left tackle. No center. The Eagles defensive line is really, really fucking good. So Kurt Cousins does not get the blame for this. The blame goes for the fact that the Minnesota Vikings couldn't stop anything in the run game. So the Eagles had 259 yards rushing. Whoo! They doubled up time of possession.
Starting point is 00:03:28 It was 40 minutes to 20 minutes. It was an ass kicking. They could not stop anything. They certainly couldn't stop the cheat play. The Jalen Hertz get behind Jordan Milatt's huge ass and just drive forward to yards. I say cheat play. I'm kind of asterisk. I'll give the Vikings an asterisk on this loss because they couldn't stop the cheap play.
Starting point is 00:03:46 That play is awesome. 200 stop that. 259 yards. Yeah, is insane. And the Eagles have a running back. And it was it was 5.4 yards per carry. It was it really did feel like every time they wanted to run the ball There was that one drive where I think it was 10 seven or maybe it was actually There was that one drive where I think it was 10 seven or maybe it was actually With did the Vikings go up for no seven three and the Eagles are like all right We're not fucking around anymore and they just ran the ball ran the ball ran the ball right down the field
Starting point is 00:04:13 Do you think that the Eagles chose to start gain well because his name's gain well? And that's an awesome name for running back. It's a great name for getting that the guy they had behind him Was named Swift which is also a very good name for running. The Eagles have the two best running back names at the running back. Boston Scott's a great name too. It is yeah. They have great name. Rashad Petties a great name.
Starting point is 00:04:30 They do have, they've got all the names. They have all the names. Yeah, yeah. But yeah, this was, listen, people know our piece with Kirk cousins, this was not on him. He was, he had very little time and he did everything he could to keep the Vikings in this game. It was through to Justin Jefferson a lot. Yeah, Justin Jefferson is incredibly one to the insults that I don't want to do the insults. Yeah, because people
Starting point is 00:04:54 want to hear. All right. So Justin Jefferson, fun stat about Justin Jefferson, he now has more receiving yards than any bears wide receiver ever. And but the bears have been playing football that recently, right? They're expansion teams. Well, they haven't been doing the Ford pass since like, like Jay Cutler. Okay, so it's been like over 100 years that bears football.
Starting point is 00:05:13 Yeah, so it's, it was, it's an insults that it hurts, but it also like every bears that when you do wide receivers or quarterbacks will always hurt. It then did have us go down to Johnny Knox, uh, rabbit hole, which is nice because I love Johnny Knox. It sucked that his career ended that way. But yeah, the Justin Jefferson is incredible. Johnny Knox from from the you from J. M.
Starting point is 00:05:40 You. I think Vanderbilt. I think it's I think I think it was Vanderbilt as well. I think maybe I'm making that I might you might be thinking I think it's, I think Errol Bennett was Vanderbilt as well. I think maybe I'm making that up. You might be thinking of Errol Bennett and Jay Cutler. That's embarrassing if I do a fronmin, it's not right. I think you might be right though.
Starting point is 00:05:54 I think you might be right. Abelian Christian. You think of Errol Bennett and Jay Cutler? Yeah, to be fair, I was. Yeah, you were thinking of that. I'm swearing off frs for the next three weeks. Because I was like, wait, do I know this? I was like, wait, I don't know this.
Starting point is 00:06:09 It's not like it was the, I don't know, a question where you knew. He could have gotten to the total. It was, I know exactly where your brain was. It was a J-Cutler, real benefit. But yeah, the Justin Jefferson is out of this world good. Like some of the catches he was making, the like run after the catches he was making the like the run after the catches
Starting point is 00:06:26 He was making he is so fucking good and now though we have to ask ourselves Is he gonna get to a point where he's like I like to win because I'm one of the best or if not the best wide receivers in the game I thought what we saw tonight big cat was perhaps the emergence of two deep a wide receivers Yeah, maybe Jefferson, maybe Brown, A.J. Brown, I would say, but he's yeah, but it's it seems like maybe A.J. Brown's devinus is coming out because
Starting point is 00:06:52 he realizes he's not he's not him on the Eagles. A lot to Smith. Devonta Smith, despite the fact that he's got skinny legs. Also, great moment while we're watching the game, I think you mentioned you're like, did you see
Starting point is 00:07:03 A.J. Brown going up to Jalen Hertz, Diva watch and Max goes AJ Brown going up to Jalen Hertz, Deva Watch and Max goes, yeah, but then Jalen Hertz threw him the ball four times straight. So you placate it. Yeah, it's like that's exactly what it's even. Yeah, which in a ball too. And to be fair, we want Deva wide receivers.
Starting point is 00:07:17 Yeah, we miss Deva wide receivers. Oh, you need, it's good. Yeah, the four rounds in phenomenal. And also Justin Jefferson kind of has a case. He's the best receiver in the football right now. Yes, it would be nice if he won some game It would it would suck to be that much better than everyone else and be like why are we all in two? Yeah, and after the Kirk cousins experience in Minnesota who knows who he's gonna get to play with next So I again not Kirk's fault tonight
Starting point is 00:07:38 Not we don't we're not gonna fall people think that will just be like oh prime time Kirk not his fault No, this was not prime time Kirk. The fumble, he did have the fumble. The fumble was bad. But then he had no time. Like, Kirk, we've said this many times with Kirk when his offensive line sucks and he's on the road and the defensive line is down his throat.
Starting point is 00:07:57 He looks like he's like five feet tall. Yeah, so I actually pulled up a stat. This is next gen stats. That's how deep we're getting into the technology here. Kirk cousins through four touchdown passes in rhythm, which is between two and a half and four seconds against the Eagles tied for the most such TDs in a game in the next gen stats era. I would imagine there's a Few players that have four touchdowns, but that's the most yes. Yes. I mean, yeah, he was not bad tonight and since oh This is fun since 2016
Starting point is 00:08:26 He's thrown 114 touchdown passes in rhythm 15 more than any other player Kirk cousins Avon subscriber to the rhythm method. Yes. Yeah, he is all in on it He needs if he's got good protection It probably help out a little bit max you are the star of the show today Yes, so we haven't even gotten to that point, but we can do a preview. Yeah, so people will have to trust us because we did tweet it out.
Starting point is 00:08:52 Max, later on in the show, we little peal behind the curtain, how we do our Friday shows is Thursday afternoon, we do the majority of the show. We do all the weekend preview, we do the fire fest, if we have an interview, we'll do that. So that way, after the game, all we have to do is 15 minutes to start the show.
Starting point is 00:09:10 During that, you'll hear it when we get to it, but Max nailed the score. And when I say, nailed the score, he got it exactly correct. Yeah, that was cool. That was a cool moment. I saw it coming, I think, midway through the third quarter, I'm like, there's a path here that I could nail this prediction exactly correct.
Starting point is 00:09:27 And it was weird because I wanted, I didn't want the Vikings to score, but I was like, it would be cool to have that in my, have that clip of me just banging that score. You like whispered it. You were like, yo, the 3428 is live right? Yeah. You're really live. So, coming. So, what do you think the Eagles defense secondary got work to do?
Starting point is 00:09:47 Yeah. There's a lack of communication in the secondary right now. There has been, like, the hardest words. He's like a play by play guy. Or the color commentator. There's a lack of communication. You guys are not on the same page. Yeah. not a community case. You guys are not on the same page. Yeah, no, the past two weeks, I was watching an X video this week from
Starting point is 00:10:09 ballad and he was talking about how last week there was just a bunch of blunders in the secondary and guys were just wide open for absolutely no reason. And again, it happened the exact same thing tonight. But the D line can help with a lot of those mistakes because every guy in that front seven is just so good. As long as the turf is good. As long as the turf is good. I think you guys are down your top three corners now.
Starting point is 00:10:34 Oh, no. Oh, no. Slays healthy. Slays healthy. Yeah, Bradbury. Yeah, but you're down. Yeah, we had a name, an injury gami today. We had two Bradbury's out on opposite sides of the ball in the same game
Starting point is 00:10:45 I'm gonna venture to say that's never happened in the history of the NFL But you guys have I think three cornerbacks are injured now So that's gonna be tough for you still got slay big place lay I think it's one corner One or maybe two safeties one linebacker max. I have another question Play calling. Got better. It started off poor, but then once we realized we could run the ball every single time. Yes, I'd agree with that. You just did the run the ball play.
Starting point is 00:11:13 It felt like they were trying to get you in the hurts, some running plays, but it was, they all felt like kind of half ass. Yeah, but you figured it out. I mean, it's a new offensive coordinator. It's early in the season. You don't want to be playing your best ball right now. That's what I keep saying. You don't want to be playing your best ball. Two and O is two and O.
Starting point is 00:11:32 Two and O is two and O. And you get better throughout the season. New coaches gotta get a feel for the guys will be fine. Yeah. Hey, thoughts on the game? How concerned? Hawking time. He did it for you.
Starting point is 00:11:43 Two touchdowns, seven receptions, great game. That was great recap. So Max, you're out two cornerbacks now and a starting safety. Yeah, or, okay, yes. Yeah, James Bradbury, Reed Blankenship, and then you had another injury tonight. Okay.
Starting point is 00:12:02 Two and all is two and all. Two and all is two and all. But the good news is the front seven is good enough. Like they're gonna be able to get pressure on anybody. Junk, whenever Junk Carter's on the field, which isn't every drive, which makes me upset, I just watch, he's the only thing I watch. So you actually are a little like,
Starting point is 00:12:20 it's getting a little homo erotic for you. Yeah, no, it's great. I showed you that one during the game. It was awesome. Also, we should say Max, for people who are listening right now, and they're like, hey, is this guy sick for the seven straight week? He is. He's going to see a doctor though.
Starting point is 00:12:35 Yeah, and he's Chicago doctors out there. Please help Max. Real doctors. Real doctors. Or Vette. We can send you to a door. Vette. I feel like I'm your parent because I've been telling you go to the doctor for last two weeks
Starting point is 00:12:47 Yeah, no, it's not that bad. It's just I've had a cough for six weeks now And it just doesn't go away and he keeps saying long COVID and he already took antibiotics and that did nothing Yeah, so I wanted the doctor I took steroids and then I went back to the doctor and then they gave me antibiotics and it helped the My throat is fine. I just still have this call. Yes. I feel like I'm talking to a doctor right now. Yes.
Starting point is 00:13:09 No, there'll be a doctor that'll hit us up. It's like you're treating us like a therapist doctor. Like I've talked about my feelings. I feel sick. I'm just writing. How many drinks a week do you have? Rats. Subjective.
Starting point is 00:13:22 Sorry, everyone lies to their doctor. The one person in the world you shouldn't lie to, really the dumbest brain thing that men do. We're like, hey, this guy's here to help you, and then you lie to him. The doctors know that though. They don't multiply your drinks by five. But it's just such a funny concept where it's like,
Starting point is 00:13:40 yeah, I'm gonna lie to my doctor. The one guy that you don't wanna lie to. Have you ever been to a doctor where they don't put you on the scale, but they ask you what your way it is? Yeah, never given the right way. No, six, three, two, 15, no. You're like, what's bothering you?
Starting point is 00:13:54 Nothing, I feel great. It's like, you know, this is the one time you should actually bitch. All right, but yeah, Eagles, two and a half Vikings, oh and two Vikings, Pinky team. I might add another Pinky team. We'll see how it goes, but yeah, Eagles 2 and 0 Vikings own 2 Vikings Pinky team. I might add another Pinky team. We'll see how it goes, but they're not winning the Super Bowl. No chance. No, there's no chance. Although I've got a future on the Vikings at 4,000 or plus 4,000. Okay. That's dead. Yeah. I might as well just late that on fire. They're not, they're,
Starting point is 00:14:20 they've got too many defensive. The defense stinks. Yeah. And they're offence. I mean, Justin Jefferson just, he's so fucking good. I thought their defense could be any worse than last year. It might be. Well, granted, they did play the Eagles tonight. That might mean that the Patriots are really good, Hank. It's just really tough when you get undressed in that manner in a pro football game where it's like,
Starting point is 00:14:39 we're gonna do this one thing and there's nothing you can do to stop. Absolutely nothing. I do love the cheat play. It might be cheating, but I love it. No, it's nothing you do. Nothing, absolutely nothing. That I do love the the cheat play. It might be cheating, but I love it. No, it's a great one. That's playing sports. Jerry Joe. I can't believe Jerry Jones didn't ban that this off season. I thought for sure he would.
Starting point is 00:14:52 He really wanted to put a pin in that. He'll do it next off season or AI. Jerry Jones will do it. Yes. Yes. Okay. Let's kick it to ourselves. We can preview and you get to hear Max Dredamus. And then we have Joe Camila after that. Okay. It's time for NFL weekend picks and preview segment. It's brought to you by our friends at Uber Eats. We love Uber Eats apart in my take and when you're preparing for your
Starting point is 00:15:13 NFL Sunday, knowing you'll be watching all the action for eight straight hours, not leaving your couch. You'll want to get delivered on Uber Eats, the place to get almost anything, get groceries, alcohol, everyday essentials, in addition to the best local restaurants you love. You won't be able to get winning picks delivered from this show or Uber Eats. So in other words, get almost anything with Uber Eats order now delivered with Uber Eats. You can get almost anything, not shows, ponchos, wings, box boxes, plunger, deodorant, I actually need deodorant. I'm gonna order it on Sunday.
Starting point is 00:15:47 You can't get an extra running back for your fan as team on Uber Eats. That's unfortunate, but you can get everything else. So get grocery, alcohol, everyday essential, in addition to the restaurant food you love. So in other words, get almost anything with Uber Eats order now. Alcohol and select markets in 21 plus to order product availability may vary by region.
Starting point is 00:16:05 See app for details Uber eats get almost anything order now and tune in because before we do our Sunday night pick, we're going to decide what we're going to eat on Sunday night for Sunday night football dinner using Uber eats. Okay, we got some root beer last week and it was elite elites. Week two boys, I almost said week three, week two, because week three college football week two, we're ready to find some things out. Just a general week two note, I wanted to throw out there.
Starting point is 00:16:35 It teams that lost by double digits are 39, 22 and one in week two. Yeah, this is the classic don't overreact, but we're gonna overreact in this. So that's the panthers, the Bengals, the Steelers, one in week two. Yeah, this is the classic don't over react, but we're gonna over react. Yes. So that's the panthers, the Bengals, the Steelers, the Seahawks, the Bears and the Giants, are all teams that fall under that category where they lost badly, and now you gotta say to yourself,
Starting point is 00:16:55 huh, who do I like this week? Is that real? Yeah, I made a little note today, and it was before I hadn't heard about that stat in particular, but it's the same mindset. If a team gets their ass kicked, if they were a favorite that gets their ass kicked in week one, and then they're underdogs in week two,
Starting point is 00:17:11 that's gonna be a system play for me this year. Yeah, I like it. I like it. So we're gonna do it, how we did it last week. We're gonna do it with the TV games. Starting with, I think the best game of the week, it is Chiefs at Jags. What do you got?
Starting point is 00:17:28 Oh, well, we'll do that when we do the parts at the end. It is Chiefs at Jags. What do you got? Oh, well, we'll do that when we do the parts of the idea. Chiefs at Jags, I think that is sound. I'll give up bear sound. I don't give a fuck. Yeah, this seems like I don't need to hear the bear sound. I was looking through this late and it's like if we weren't bears and commanders fans, those are probably the games that aren't going to be on TV this weekend. Yeah, probably. Broncos commanders. Broncos Yeah, probably Broncos commanders
Starting point is 00:17:46 There's Tampa Bay. Broncos commanders is late slate. So we'll have enough TVs It would have it would have been on the cut line bears would have been on the cut line I think officially because there is a couple not great games But Jags chiefs will be center TV sound. I'm so excited for this game So there's a couple things, a couple thoughts I want to throw out there. One is Andy Reed, uh, longer rest, which we all know. Well, hibernation, hibernation. He had a long rest before the Lions game though. Yeah, yeah, he did. He had a very long rest, but Andy Reed off of a buy mini buy, uh, because they played on Thursday, uh, last 20 years on eight or
Starting point is 00:18:23 more days. He's 45, 35 and one against the spread and 56 and 25 straight up. Yeah, pretty good. And he's getting Chris Jones back, which is probably the biggest thing considering that I think the Jaguars have two offensive linemen that are down, one of them being Bren and Sherf, who's one of two all pro players from the Washington franchise in the last like 40 years. Cameron Robinson suspended for four games.
Starting point is 00:18:44 Cameron Robinson out. Chris Jones, who won the contract negotiation? Because I would say not Chris Jones. He basically said, okay, we'll take you back and we'll give you some maybe potential more money and incentives if you have like 15 sacks this year. They also, I saw someone posted on Twitter that someone on chiefs Redditdit did a deep dive into
Starting point is 00:19:05 Chris Jones's agents and basically they don't have any players except Chris Jones. So they get all their time. So they were like trying really hard to get Chris Jones more money. But yeah, I'd say Chris Jones probably didn't win that, but I'm happy he's back. He's fun to watch. Play football is Kelsey playing. I don't know because it seemed like he was going to try to play last week. So you would assume if he tried to play last week and it was coming down to the
Starting point is 00:19:27 wire that he would play this week. Last week felt like a don't hold me back, bro. It was like it was put out the report. I fought to try to play like a lot of a lot of emotion going into week one. Yeah. There was a report that on Bruce that that Taylor Swift is trying to tank the chief season to make her Eagles win that came courtesy tic Tox and that's that's a good report leave it also my homes is an underdog or favorite of three or less
Starting point is 00:19:53 1966 and one so I think it's three and a half now, so I guess that's outside of that but I so I think that the cheese will have a very good game I think they'll win this game the only thing that's popping in my head And this is after doing a million shows all week. I Was thinking about what what year was it? It must have been 2019 when the Jaguars lost to the Patriots and the AFC championship game and I think week two the Jaguars kicked the shit out of the Patriots in Jacksonville and to the Jaguars kick the shit out of the Patriots in Jacksonville and won their Super Bowl week two. That makes me a little nervous. The Jaguars are like, oh, this is our Super Bowl. Miles Jack wasn't down. Yeah. People forget Jack out of the league. The Jaguars should have
Starting point is 00:20:35 won that game. The Jaguars should have been in the Super Bowl. Blake Bordles should have been in the Super Bowl. Vars Nick Foles against Nick Foles. Yeah. And tell me that Blake Bordles doesn't win that. Can you imagine it? That's the great. You imagine if Jaguar, if Jacksonville had a Super Bowl parade and Blake Bordles was up front, like driving a Silverado, just like cranking tunes and just chugging bushlights. Yeah. It would have been the best Super Bowl parade. That was an insult graphic that went around,
Starting point is 00:20:57 remember it was, it was Bordles, Foles, Kirk Cousins, Tom Brady. Case Keenum. Or Case Keenum, right. Thank you, Hank. Case Keenum and Tom Brady. It was like Tom Brady didn't Keenum right. Thank you Hank case Keenum and Tom Brady was like Tom Brady didn't win this Super Bowl. Yeah out of these four quarterbacks. I mean, I'm fucking bored. Oh, man, that he's the best. The best. The best. The best. The best. The best. The best. The best. The best. The best. The best. The best. The best. The best. The best. The best. The best. The best. The best. The best. The best. The best. The best. The best. The best. The best.
Starting point is 00:21:13 The best. So in this game, if the Jaguars beat the Chiefs in a shoot out, the Super Bowl champs. The best. The best. The best. The best. The best. The best. The best. The best. The best. The best. The best. The best. The best. The best. The best. The best. The best. The best. The best. The best. The best.
Starting point is 00:21:23 The best. The best. The best. The best. The best. The best. The best. The best. The best. The best. The best. The best. The best. The best. The best. The best. sure. From the homes to Trevor Lawrence. For sure. I've got my eye on a passing of the torch this weekend. I might be jagging off. Yeah, I, yeah, this game makes me nervous, because I probably will most likely bet the chiefs. And I, I am a little nervous about the fact that the Jags, like this is, this will be kind of everything. And then it will be fade hard the Jags next week.
Starting point is 00:21:41 Yeah, so the good news if you're a Jaguars fan, or I guess if you're a Chiefs fan, great news going into this week is that Caderius Tony can't possibly play worse, right? Oh yeah, no, he can't. There's no chance, but I don't know. I saw a stat that was like, every time they attempted to pass Caderius Tony the ball,
Starting point is 00:21:58 the scoring differential was like, point nine points, minus. So they like lost a point every time they attempted to play. They wouldn't want the game without a mouth of field. Yeah. So I think yeah, he could play worse. Why not? You think so? I think he's the only guy up for the challenge. He is. If anyone can do it, it's telling me I believe in him. Yes. Yes. Okay. So I'm excited for this game. That's all I wanted to say. Me too. I'm very excited. Nerd nugget. So real quick before Jake does is nerd nugget.
Starting point is 00:22:26 Some keep your eye on. Just an overall trend this year. It's from last year. It looks like it's carrying over. Last year, there were 3,416 attempts of at least 15 yards downfield. Right? So about 3,500 passes attempted that travel 15 yards downfield. That's the fewest in any season since 2006. And this year, so far, we're even behind that. It's only one week, but we're even behind last year,
Starting point is 00:22:53 which was the lowest since 2006. Is that might as the NFL taking out, taking passing out of the game of football? That might also, the bears definitely skew those numbers. Well, the bears also check down. They've had a check down. He's had a check down. He's been coming a running back now.
Starting point is 00:23:07 Yeah. We'll see if Patrick Mahomes can learn to pass the ball, like pocket thrower Trevor Lawrence, they might have a shot. Yes. I am worried about the Jags offensive line though. I think it's gonna be Chris Jones. He's got something to prove.
Starting point is 00:23:19 He's got incentives to make. And he's, yeah, he's got incentives to make. He has to make these incentives to get his money. And he's off of megabyte. Yeah, huge huge buy All right next up another TV Wait, nerd nugget. Yeah, nerd nugget. Sorry Jaguars had coach Doug Peterson returns the face Kansas City where he served as chief OC from 2013 to 15 he also was on the coaching staff with Andy Readon Philadelphia from 2009 to 2012 Yeah, you have a Doug Peterson nerd nugget last week Is it just Doug Peterson's been on a lot of teams?
Starting point is 00:23:46 Should we just make that the nerd nugget for the Jaguars? Was that not, am I confusing? I'm not saying you're a bad job, but I think it was Doug Peterson, started his career in Jaguars. Jaguars Colts was the Colts new week one quarterback. Oh, okay, all right, good. Well, with Doug Peterson,
Starting point is 00:24:01 it's like you've got the best former Philadelphia Eagles coach in the NFL and also Andy Reed playing. Mm-hmm. Where do you, how do you rank those max as a Philly guy? It's got to be Dougy P. Dougy P. Andy R. What?
Starting point is 00:24:15 Andy, what do you know what that look? Yeah, it's got to be Dougy P. Dude. It's, Andy was ever so long. But a fly-flops forever. It's so much, all those NFC K.P. It's a satisfaction. Dougy P. It's a satisfaction. filly filly. All right next to your on a your WP WP okay, okay, you're on a loss of Super Bowl. Yeah, they all tank got you good on that one
Starting point is 00:24:36 You're not remembering all those NFC championship Hey, Hank I'm proud of you. That was fucking. I mean it got you bad. No, it's it's For me or Duggy P but any read had had the Eagles in contention every single year Right, but did they win anything? You you I know it's Duggy P and you had a any reason got a fistful of rings from the years that he had them in Attention, yeah, that's Nick that's Nick falls easy. I don't know why That's the exact same question. It's the exact same question.
Starting point is 00:25:05 It's the exact same question. I, okay, that's fair. That's fair. He's got you twice now. I think I just like Andy Reed as a guy more than I like. Don't have a make that. Andy Reed's more of like a silly guy. What's the difference between the two, Max?
Starting point is 00:25:18 That was kind of a jerk on the way. The both kind of chunky? No, I mean. One guy, big guy, one guy is the kind of guy that you'd want to date your daughter. Yeah, right. The other guy, he comes home and you're like, hey, what's going on here?
Starting point is 00:25:30 No, McNeibb said some shit after he left. Yeah, well, you guys said some shit to McNeibb. Yeah, while he was puking in the huddle. Max, Andy Reed beat you. You got the cussed. Andy Reed beat you in a Super Bowl. That's also a Super Bowl. That's three-oh, this side of the road. Okay.
Starting point is 00:25:47 Unreal. I dug a pee. Okay. Next game on TV Ravens Bengals. Yes. Very excited for this one. Will Joe borough bounce back. I say yes. New haircut big cat. New haircut. Mm-hmm. Can't play can. He is unlike Caderius Tony who I think can play worse Joe Borough cannot play worse. I think that was the lowest like that. I think you'll look at Joe Borough in 15 years Hall of Fame career. He'll be like, remember that game that was the worst game I ever played. Did you play worse in this game or against the the Steelers in week one last year? So I feel like TJ Wat played really good in that game. scored in that game though. Yeah. Didn't score against the Brown. He was pretty bad. If you're if you own any of the Bengals players on offense and fancy football, you're like,
Starting point is 00:26:28 what the fuck happened last week? What just happened. So I'm excited for this game because I just AFC North, baby. AFC North. These teams don't like each other. They don't like each other. I do. The Ravens already very, very injured.
Starting point is 00:26:40 Yeah. Oh, right out right out of the gate. John Harboss sneaky great as a underdog too He's in that camp of like coaches that somehow find an extra little something for underdog, though I love Zay flowers. Zay flowers gonna be watching a lot of tape of Zay flowers and week one that dude's gonna be a problem That's the only reason why I'm kind of leaning the the Ravens is because You know when you have these aFC North battles they know each other so well Ravens are because, you know, when you have these AFC North battles, they know each other so well. Ravens are running a new office.
Starting point is 00:27:07 They ran a lot more wide receivers out there like they were in Mark Andrews might be back. Yeah, but they've got some lineman down. Yeah, no, they got everything down. The Ravens are the Ravens. Defensive, defensive lineman of the Bangles is going to eat this way. They're always injured. Uh, okay.
Starting point is 00:27:21 Next up, Seahawks at Lions. I was looking back through history. I think this might be the most hyped Lions crowd ever because last time, I think there's 17 to one one to win the Super Bowl right now and there one to know. 1993, there were 15 to one and there were one to know. It's like, I went through every year, the Lions Super Bauds, there were always like 40 to 1 some 100 to 1s
Starting point is 00:27:46 The the fact of the Lions won on Thursday night They have a team that is considered a Super Bowl contending team and it's a home game It's gonna be fucking awesome. It's gonna be awesome It's gonna be so loud and so much fun and I'm excited to watch this Lions game Also our friend Jared Goff, little fun betting nugget, 10 and one against the spread weeks one and two in his career. That's pretty cool. That's pretty good.
Starting point is 00:28:11 He loves the good weather. He loves it. He loves early season. All right, so here's a bunch of reasons why I think the Seahawks might suck. Yeah. Okay, they were three and five to close out the season last year.
Starting point is 00:28:20 Correct. Two of those wins came against John Walford. Remember him? Yep. John Walford on the Rams. And the other was Zach Wilson. Yep. And then there was Baker Mayfield, I think, and I think he started that last game for the Rams. But the two of those three wins came against bottom tier. And they needed that last win to get in. They needed last when they were playing for a lot. They started out the season hot, beat some good teams, beat a couple teams that they really should season hot, beat some good teams,
Starting point is 00:28:45 beat a couple teams that they really should have beaten. And also now they, I think they might be down there two starting tackles. Yeah. So Aiden Hutchinson, who basically plays like a tornado. Very attractive family. Very attractive family. Very, very attractive family.
Starting point is 00:28:58 He's probably gonna have a pretty good day for the lines. So everything is telling me the Seahawks might actually suck. But it's that stat that we talked about earlier where a team gets their ass kicked. All the expectations of the world are now on the Lions. They're favorites favorites as they should be. They seem like they're going to be a pretty good team. Add that into the fact that Pete Carroll is 20 and 11 against the spread after he loses as a favorite. Oh, so just something that everything about this game screams bet on the lions. But yeah, but because it's telling me that and I'm smart enough now to know that I'm an idiot. If I trust myself, I think I'm going to fade myself. Can I give you a counterpoint? Yeah, these lines are different. Fuck that's all I keep saying to myself. They might be different. These might be lion. We're talking about those lions.
Starting point is 00:29:45 You know, no, not talking about the same old lions. We're talking about these lions. These lions are way better than those lions. I think what I might do is just hold my nose, take the seahawks, and then just write it off to being smart when that bet loses. Yes. It's a loss I can live with that loss.
Starting point is 00:29:59 Yes. I'm, go ahead, Jake. Nerd nugget. No two teams in NFL history have ever combined for at least 80 points in three consecutive meetings. These two teams can do that. Last year, 48, 45, 2021, 51, 29. You gotta take the over.
Starting point is 00:30:15 You gotta take the over. 51, 29, 48, 45 last year. You gotta take the over. You have to. It's a hard old point. I'll be a part of history. Yeah, you gotta be a part of history. Three straight games combining for 80. There's a couple teams that are playing week two that I
Starting point is 00:30:30 would actually say have must wins and can loses. And the first one is Raiders at Bills. The Bills must win. It does feel Monday night football was a disaster. It feels like the Bills have to win this game and they have to win it convincingly to get their swagger back a little bit. The Stefan Diggs story with the reporter who accidentally on a live mic said he's terrible to deal with and we'll say fuck you to your face and then had to walk it back and be like,
Starting point is 00:30:57 just kidding, I didn't actually mean that. Yeah, you did, you said it on a live mic. Like you were, you meant what you were saying Just weird vibes. Is it not true that he'll say fuck you to your face though? That's actually a good thing. It is a good thing. It's a dog. Yeah, you also you'd rather that than have him be passive aggressive to your face He's a dog put a deal in his chest max It does feel like it's kind of I don't want to sound the alarm so bad But the bills just they need to win they need to win this game and they need to do it well and they need to win by a lot and everyone will be like,
Starting point is 00:31:28 chill out, the bills are still awesome. Yeah, so just a little counterpoint to maybe why the bills should knock the shit out of the Raiders. The Raiders are pulling the old football guy move of staying at the Green Briar this week. Yeah, there've been a least- Which is co-star of kind of. Doesn't really make a lot of sense.
Starting point is 00:31:43 No, you usually do that when you've got two East Coast games back to back. Yeah, they played in Denver and they played in Denver last week. And then Josh McDaniel is like, well, you know what, Bill Parsles would have these guys stay at the Green Briar. So I'm going to make them stay at the Green Briar. The Green Briar, there's something going on there. Why do so many teams just hang out in the hills of West Virginia for a week in between games?
Starting point is 00:32:03 That's actually the place where the shadow government was going to be in the event of a nuclear war against the Green Briar estate was going to be a place where the government would all fly out to and plot their next move. I also think now that you just gave us that fact, I, someone do some investigative journalism, but there's probably a 99% chance that Mark Davis just rented out the Raider's facility for like a birthday party. Yeah. You know what I mean? Like that's why they had to say it's not they didn't they weren't like what's get a
Starting point is 00:32:29 competitive advantage staying closer to the time zone. They're like no, we can't use it because there's apartments at the Raiders facility. It might also just to be to get a get some cash. It might have done to get away from Mark Davis for a week. It's that would be so funny. But there's a bounce house in the Raiders facility right now. Yeah. Mark Davis charged someone like $100,000 like, Hey, look, that's a,
Starting point is 00:32:52 that's a practice squad player. We got to pay our guys somehow. To me, it seems like it's a, it's a try hard move on, on McDaniel's part to like, you can't break the green briar glass for no reason. Right. You have to, you have to do that when it makes sense. Right. Right.
Starting point is 00:33:07 Okay. Nerd nugget. Similar to last game, when the Raiders and Bills get together, a lot of points are typically scored in their last five meetings. They've averaged a total of 57.2 points per game. Okay. So another over. Okay.
Starting point is 00:33:20 I do think that Josh Allen just goes nuts this week. He has to. He will. I think he will as well. He looks so depressed after the game when he was saying that, like, yeah, it feels like it felt last year and I hate that I feel that way. He just looks super, super down. This is the guy I want to be happy.
Starting point is 00:33:34 I want you to watch the behalf. This is a must win get right. Yep. He's brought to you by the farmer's dog. The results of switching your dog's food from kibble to fresh can seem like magic. When a senior dog starts acting like a puppy again and the pickiest of eaters can't wait for dinner time. You might think that some spells were cast.
Starting point is 00:33:52 But the farmer's dog doesn't use any sorcery. They don't use secret ingredients to make their fresh food. They just use science. The farmer's dog makes and delivers fresh healthy dog food. It's developed by vets. It's nutritionally balanced and made from real healthy ingredients to human food safety standards. I've been using the farmer's dog with Blake. He absolutely loves it. You put the food down in front of him. He eats it so fast. He absolutely loves
Starting point is 00:34:14 the farmer's dog. And you can tell that the ingredients, I could probably eat the farmer's dog dog food and be happy with like a lunch. It looks that good. It smells good too. The farmer's dog isn't just fresh, higher quality food. They also send the food pre-portions specifically for your dog based on their unique nutritional needs. They know Blake's a puppy, they know he's growing, they know how much he weighs, so they portion out the food.
Starting point is 00:34:36 You don't have to guess. They've got exactly portioned out for you and a fresh diet has been found to have all sorts of benefits. You get healthier coat, healthier skin, better breath, even easier digestion, and smaller, better poops as poops have gotten very manageable recently. I love that about the farmer's dog. A healthy diet isn't just important for humans. It's important for your dogs too. It doesn't matter if your dog's young or old, it's always the right time to begin investing in their health, helping you live more healthy,

Just go to thefarmerzdog.com slash PMT, get 50% off. That's thefarmerzdog.com slash PMT. Okay, next one. I want to say right now I was a week early. Uh, I was premature.
Starting point is 00:35:29 The bear is going to Tampa Bay is the biggest game in Bears franchise history. I'll just say that right now. I was a week early on my prediction of biggest game in Bears franchise history. Uh, this is a must win. I've watched some of the tape. It's bad. It wasn't just Luke Getzy, Justin Fields played bad. Chase Claypool was awesome. Chase Claypool is a bum. Get him out of
Starting point is 00:35:50 here. I don't even think he's going to play, which will be good. They should honestly cut him. Yeah, they should. They should. But I think in those situations, you can't do it right now. You got a first round pick. The second round. Second round pick you gave up for him. That's 30 second overall. Okay, Max. Thanks. So that is a first round pick Yeah, thank you, Max. Thanks Max, but I know that sucks to be like well, we made a mistake. Don't shake your head Don't shake your fucking head. It sucks. Yes, we what is it? Don't shake your fucking head It sucks to make that you made a mistake so quickly and you gave up a lot to get just an absolute loser Yeah, we have two first round picks, which also
Starting point is 00:36:25 got a loser, but it's a loser big. He's a bum. He's a bum. He's a bum. He, I, two things happened way too early that make me very nervous. One, every year, if, if you know the Bears franchise, Virginia McCasky's like 150 years old. She's a woman from the Titanic.
Starting point is 00:36:43 Wonderful lady owns, has owned the Bears forever and her sons are running the Bears. George McCaskey runs the Bears. At least one point in every single bear season, we get a report that either Virginia or George are not happy with what the direction of the Bears. We got that in week one. So we already have the report and nothing happens from it. It stays the same
Starting point is 00:37:06 The bears just continue to suck, but they let it be known that they're not happy that they oh my god How this happened we suck again. Do they ever get concerned? Is there ever report that they're concerned? There was direction the franchise there was one I think maybe at the end of the trust in years where where well There was one time where George or Cassie got pushed at the stadium, that was funny. Virginia McCasky, I think, like, was like, went to a game and was like very, you know, upset at the, at the loss or something. These are the reports that we get.
Starting point is 00:37:36 Nothing changes again, but it happens every year. It's happened way too early. The other thing that's happened way too early, sounds like she just needs to get laid. Maybe. I mean, you want to... I'll tick her down. Yeah, just do it.
Starting point is 00:37:47 Just fucking bend her over. Doggie, baby. Yeah. You, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, Yeah, that's okay. The other thing that's happened way too early. Did they've ever met? Yeah, definitely. They might be the same person. I don't think I've ever seen them in the same room. Let's look into that.
Starting point is 00:38:11 Yeah. The other thing that's happened way too early that's made me very nervous is that I've already started telling myself two first round picks. Yeah, that's bad. That's really bad. And the Bears, they need to win this game so, so badly because they play the Chiefs in Kansas City next week. Oh, and three disaster start. I'm having a crisis
Starting point is 00:38:31 of confidence. All right, but counterpoint pick at an Oh and three would look very bad on the record. It looks bad. You know, nobody out there is going to have Chicago bears Oh and three in their Twitter handle, right? That's not you're not going to brag about maybe have to do that now. But what if you guys go down to Tampa Bay, the offense looks great. Yes. That score 35 points. They need to.
Starting point is 00:38:51 The box score 37 points. You would be happy with that. If the offense looks good. You have to feel good. Yeah, I could spin myself, spin zone myself. If it looks like it looked on Sunday though, it's disaster, everything I thought is gone, everything I believed. Just again, crisis of confidence going on in my brain right now.
Starting point is 00:39:13 It's not necessarily. It's been a torturous week having to deal with this. It's not necessarily a must win. It's a must, must offense. No, it's a must not look like you did against the packers. Just do, that was very must not look like you did against the packers. Yeah. Just do. That was very nice. Is that you? Yeah, I'm sorry. That was a hiccup. You just can't look that bad. It must score. It's a must score game. Must look competent. Yeah. That's really let's,
Starting point is 00:39:36 that's where the bar is because there was no competence on Sunday. And so you just need competence. I also, I'm starting, another bad thought in my head. I feel like DJ Morris probably already liked what the fuck. I want out. Yeah, well, it'd be nice if you threw the ball to him more than twice. Yeah, it's bad. And the tape is worse.
Starting point is 00:39:54 I saw all of Baldi's breakdowns. It's bad. Yeah. It basically just relived all week because I had a flashback this week where it was like, remember the classic Mitsch-Trobisky screenshot with the Packers game? It was that all over again.
Starting point is 00:40:09 People just throwing it up there like, dude, I saw the game was bad, can we bury the tape? No, we got to watch the tape over and over and over. So they have to look good. I think you'll get the best effort. I also am starting to think that he refuses the guy. Like again, these are all the thoughts that are going through my head. It's a crisis of confidence, winning
Starting point is 00:40:27 Cures all. I speak in the half of America and probably all bearish fans when I say, let Justin Field run the ball. Let him run the ball. Do everything. Put in some design runs for him. Let him stretch the defense out. Let them let the defense get uncomfortable and try to figure out where he's going to go. And then the passing game opens up. When you do that, when Justin Field is breaking off 60 yard runs, then the rest of the office looks awesome.
Starting point is 00:40:49 And on top of that, Justin, if you're listening, I still have confidence in you, but don't be afraid to let it fly, baby. Like that Josh Allen arm punt where he threw a 60 yard interception. I'd suck a dick for one of those, okay? It was a great interception. Like you throw an interception, 60 yards suck a dick for one of those, okay? It was a great interception. Like you throw an interception, 60 yards down the field, I can't be upset. Let's keep a running stat for interception of the year.
Starting point is 00:41:11 That one's out there. Because I think that Josh Allen pick was the best interception I've seen. Yes, yes, that was great. Okay, next game, Packers Falcons. I love the Falcons. I got a stat for you. I love the Falcons.
Starting point is 00:41:24 Desmond Ritter has never lost a home game in college or NFL. It's pretty good stuff. That's pretty good stuff. Where are they playing this weekend? They're playing in Atlanta. I love the Falcon's offense. And if you only get... I love his strong...
Starting point is 00:41:35 No, here's why. Because if you only pay attention to fancy football, you're like, the Falcon's offense sucks. Because your guy Drake London isn't getting any catches because Kyle Pits doesn't get the ball downfield. But guess what? They're playing mustache football. Yeah. Arthur Smith has a mustache. They're going to run the damn ball. Did you watch the clip though? Someone made a cut up of Kyle Pits and he was just open on every. I know. I know.
Starting point is 00:41:56 And he was there was one play where he juke the cornerback so bad that he broke his ankles and Desmond Rear didn't throw him the ball, but Kyle Pitz still had to celebrate because he's like that move was incredible Like he clapped in his face like I got you. I didn't get the ball, but I got you. You know we call it That's a good rep to get he had a lot of good reps. He had a great rep Obviously be nice to hit him down field every now and again But I still love the fact that Arthur Smith sometimes will just be like Fuck it. I feel like just run in the ball. Yeah. No, I just run it.
Starting point is 00:42:26 I grew with you. Um, also, I had another insult stat. Uh, you know how there was, uh, you know, like, there was always a stat like if you played Bama the next week, you would lose because Bama would just beat the shit out of you. Um, turns out it's actually the reverse with the bears. So, uh, I had a note that the bears might have soft enough. The last 20 years, uh, teams teams have played at Soldier Field the following week are 95, 58 and 2 against the spread. Okay, that's not good. But 31 and 16 against
Starting point is 00:42:56 the spread since 2017. So they basically get all their good reps against the Bears are like, we can do this. Aaron Jones might have gotten himself hurt, though. Yeah. Maybe that's the one good thing about your defense. Like players will run so fast directly through your defense that they pull a hamstring. Yeah. And they can't play next week. Yeah. So that one hurt. All right. Two more for the noon games, charges of Titans. Tana Hill. So in his press conference, he said, guys, I just want to move on to San Diego. I'm not going to answer any more questions about what happens someday. I'm not happy about it.
Starting point is 00:43:29 No one in the building's happy about it, but in the day, it's over. San Diego? Yeah. He said, he said move on to San Diego. And they put in the in the in the parentheses Los Angeles chargers. Yeah. So he said San Diego, but it also makes me think it's actually not over Ryan Tannihill. I think you still suck. Well, no, we again We're waiting for the facts to come out. We don't have enough body of evidence yet on Tannihill and
Starting point is 00:43:53 Clearly, he's still figuring out this league if he doesn't know that they play in Los Angeles Correct. So let's wait until we make judgment about Ryan Tannihill I think this is the year that he takes that next step again There's like urban Meyer finding out about Aaron Donald. Yeah, no tell Ryan Tanehill they aren't in San Diego anymore. Yeah, I got a couple questions for you Do you remember Cleal Mac? Yeah, he was awesome. Yeah, I hate you. Do you remember? I can rule do you remember Joey Boça? Yeah, it'd probably be nice if maybe a defense had those two guys And maybe they could get some pressure on the quarterback Joey Boça I would put more like hey, what's up, dude?
Starting point is 00:44:22 And that was a shootout that got away from them with the dolphins, Clue Mac, he's old though. He is old, but still he's still pretty good. And when you have Joey Boche on the other side, and they're passing the ball so much, they did a pretty good job of stopping the run. Pin your ears back. That's my coaching tip to the super chargers of San Diego
Starting point is 00:44:43 is pin your ears back this week. Yeah, this is kind of feels like, I don't want to say a must win the super chargers of San Diego is pin your ears back this week. Yeah, this is kind of feels like I don't want to say a must win for the chargers, but they kind of got to win because there's a lot like this season is supposed to be a big one for them. It should be in the in the Titans game last week. There was a great video that came out. If you haven't seen it, go watch the Saints. It was inside the NFL, Derek Carr on the sidelines against the Titans to win the game. And he goes over the sidelines, he's like, hey, just run a go route, run a go route.
Starting point is 00:45:11 And then the camera cuts over to James Winston next to him who hears the words go route. And he goes, yes. And then they call it a go route. Carr throws it down field. James, when he heard the words go route, it was like it was the Pavlovian dog that like drools when he hears the bell. When James hears you say go route, yes, yes, absolutely. He's about to say that his eyes get so wide. I love it. There's just something about James that god damn, I love that. I know we'll get to the dolphins game, but I've been watching some some film Twitter as you can tell the Mike McDaniel
Starting point is 00:45:45 Adjustment that they made against the Chargers so basically when they played the Chargers last year They were running Tyree kill in motion and the Chargers were able to figure out where he's going because he's coming in motion and they basically Decided this year to run Tyree kill in motion without running in motion because he's so fucking fast So he would like they would snap the ball and he would run sideways and then come looping around and no one could guard him. Yeah. It was the craziest thing I've ever seen.
Starting point is 00:46:11 He's so fucking fast, he could do motion without motion. Is motion, should motion be illegal? I like motion. Feels like it's a running start. I like motion because if you root for bad football, a bad football team, it feels like you're at least trying something. It's like pussy football. Line up like men.
Starting point is 00:46:27 You know the play's not gonna work, but at least she looks like it's like busy work. Yeah, it's big. It's like, hey, I'm doing some over here. Yeah, you've been watching a lot of Twitter film. Yeah, we watch a lot of film. Yeah, I like that film. I do most of my film watching also on Twitter.
Starting point is 00:46:40 I guess it's X videos if you're watching it. It's X videos. I watch a lot of X videos during the week to study. Nerd nugget. Los Angeles has absolutely dominated the series as of late, winning 11 of the past 13, also four of the last five matchups in the series decided by one score. Yeah, I was gonna say, because I remember the Titans were
Starting point is 00:46:57 pretty big underdogs last year, and then they almost won that game. I think they lost like 17, 14 or something. So I just, I feel like the the Titans if you can get even a C-minus game from Tana Hill They just do it to everyone. They make everyone play at their level They make play everyone play in a fist fight. I think C+. You get a C+. game from Tana One touchdown two interceptions
Starting point is 00:47:20 Last game cults Texans Okay, yeah. All right, I actually like Houston in this game. Yeah, why not? Yeah, cause it's been a rough week for the Stroud Boys out there for sure, but he was the first rookie quarterback in NFL history to make a week one start over 45 dropbacks,
Starting point is 00:47:40 zero interceptions. Wow. So we can build it off. Good for him. Is Anthony Richardson can cussed? Well, he heard his knee and his head. I don't know if it was his head. He also took a, he took a pretty bad shot to the head. Yeah. I, this game, yeah, I guess we'll find out if who's not bad. Yeah. Who's not bad, Bull. Yeah. I like the text as well. All right. Yeah. I like Domingo. Domingo seems like he's got D me go a lot. The defense is playing hard. Will Anderson is
Starting point is 00:48:07 Abyss. I like to me go. I'm yeah, Tex Texans Texans. Okay, nerd nugget. I have a good one for this game It's the only the second game in NFL history featuring two starting quarterbacks under the age of 22 They're both 21 the only other was James Winston versus Marcus Mariotta week one 2015 who won that game. I think I Don't know. I'm asking you the winner of that game Well, so the winner of this game will go on to have an illustrious career as a starting quarterback. This is big. This is huge Titan 34 Saints 20 no wrong game. Okay. This is awful. Oh Jake Jake, how did you not think that was gonna be a follow-up? Oh, I think the Titans won. I'm looking at the same to idiots. You know you idiot. More on you fucking idiot.
Starting point is 00:49:00 Come on Jake. He's starting to blush. 42 14 Titans. Okay, 42 14 Titans. So that projects to the Texans. 42, 14 Titans. Yeah. Although CJ Stroud, I don't know which one is he, James or Mark Smeriotta? I don't think anyone's James. Yeah, no one is James. He's truly one of one.
Starting point is 00:49:21 There was 21, nothing Titans after the first quarter. Oh wow. Okay. All right. after the first quarter. Oh wow. Okay. All right. Afternoon slate. 49ers Rams. So, Big Cat, you talked about the Alabama thing and the contrary stat with the Bears. Let's not forget the stat with the 49ers last year.
Starting point is 00:49:38 Teams the very next week. So I'm not counting a by-week because the chiefs were the anomaly in this. But the very next week after playing the 49ers last year, teams were on 15 straight up. They beat the fuck out of you. So that will be for the Steelers Monday night. Yeah. But yeah, this is, I'm just going old reliable. And I fucked this up last week because we have to remember our NFC West circle of death. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:50:02 McVeigh beats Carol and Shanahan beats McVeigh. Yes. And that happens every time I know the NFC Championship game. I know that was a big game for McVeigh, but he's one in eight versus Shanahan. So the one being the NFC Championship game, the most important one, uh, since 2019. So just go with all the relies and then everybody beats the Cardinals and everyone beats the cards. Yeah. So yeah, I'm with you on this one.
Starting point is 00:50:24 49ers. I feel like they're they might be the best team to lead. Through week one, they'd win the Super Bowl. Buddy beats the Cardinals and everyone beats the cards. Yeah, so yeah, I'm with you on this one 49ers. I feel like they're they might be the best team to league. Through week one they'd win the Super Bowl. Yeah, they did win the Super Bowl. It did if it was last week. Yes, yes. Okay, Pittsburgh only rush the ball 10 times
Starting point is 00:50:36 against them last week. It's crazy. Steelers might still might not be bad. They just played a really good team. Yeah, we'll see. What we're waiting for all the facts to come. Mm-hmm. So you can have which.
Starting point is 00:50:46 Do you have any facts about Mel Tucker? Did you do any digging? Oh, yeah. Oh, you're going to do that at the bar. Yeah. Okay. All right. You're going to just ask Michigan state fence.
Starting point is 00:50:54 What do you think about Mel Tucker? Well, if they win, maybe that'll be worth, you know, investigating more, but okay. If they lose, I might just move on. Okay. You might just move on to the next one. Nerd nugget. The Niners have tallied 11 consecutive regular season wins dating back to week eight of last season a streak that started at the Rams where they are this week's their longest regular season winning streak since 97. Wow, okay, they've been on fire
Starting point is 00:51:15 the regular season. Yeah, a lot of wins. Both these coaches used to use the coach for the commanders. Isn't that interesting? Good nugget. Okay, next up, commenters and Broncos. Let's do it. This game's gonna be ugly, I think. It probably will be ugly. So if you look at the recent history of these two franchises, Broncos' low key have just been in disarray since 2016. Oh yeah. So this is from Nikki Javala from The Washington Post. We're not doing fantasy fuck boys yet.
Starting point is 00:51:41 Yeah, well, it's a her. Okay. That's fine. That is a good fucking fantasy fuck boys. You get Nikki Javala? That's a offend you fuck boys yet. Yeah, well, it's it's her. Okay, that's fine. Um, that is a good fun. You get to follow that's a great. Yeah, uh, since 2016, the Broncos have had 12 quarterbacks starting. The commanders have had 13. Um, they've had broncos of a five defense coordinators. The commanders have had three. They've the Broncos have had seven offensive coordinators. The commanders have had five and each team has a two different ownership groups. So that's a fun little stat for me right about depressing franchises.
Starting point is 00:52:12 I think that the, the commander's defense, I was telling Max this earlier and I minute to be compliment about the Philadelphia Eagles. I was saying, the commanders, I think have a better defensive line than even the Philadelphia Eagles. Well, Max is also on his shit right now because he came up to me like, how do you feel knowing the Bears passed up Aaron Donald? So he's already got Jalen Carter as Aaron Donald. I mean, he was the top three defensive linemen in the league. Did you watch the film? I watched. I actually watched the film. I just kept. He was awesome. Twitter searching Jalen Carter throughout the week
Starting point is 00:52:45 And then just watch different people break down how good he is Vikings also the back or this game art never mind. Oh, go give us prediction right now. Tell us fine I'm just no, no, no, no, no, no, final score max 34 28 Eagles. Oh, okay. Big, big shootout. So they're not gonna cover. They're gonna push.
Starting point is 00:53:14 Push, so they're not gonna cover. You don't believe in them. Yeah. You wanna, you wanna mend your phone score? But I was gonna say the Vikings starting center is out. So that means Jalen Carter. It's gonna eat you. Jalen Carter over sacks. Oh, okay. Okay. Back to this game. I think this
Starting point is 00:53:28 game is going to stink PFT. I think it's going to be a game that one team is going to win on a field goal at the end of the game. Yeah. Well, that'd be great because that would mean the command is a cover. Yeah. Either way, I it does feel like a field goal game. Since 2002, the Broncos are our teams playing against the Broncos are three and 21 in weeks one and two in Denver. So that goes back to the altitude. Yeah, the altitude in the hot. Now, I feel like Ron Rivera is going to turn into Riverboat Ron this week.
Starting point is 00:53:55 Oh, I don't think we've got analytical. I like that prediction. That was week one. We had analytical Ron and week one. Week two, the Riverbo boats coming back because if you remember Sean Payton did some interviews after he accepted the Broncos position. He talked about what this off season was for him, how he had a bunch of offers, a bunch of teams that were interested in the services of Sean Payton to be the head coach.
Starting point is 00:54:19 He mentioned that pending what was going to be happening in Washington, some of the ownership groups reached out to him to see if he was interested He talked about another man's job. So this is a revenge game Rivera knows when another man talks about another man's job This is a hypothetical revenge this is a hypothetical revenge game. Yeah Sean Payton hypothetically Would have taken Rivera's job. I like this. So Rivera is gonna be on the warpath and it's gonna be nice And I think the commanders and that defense align which is the best in the NFL across all divisions. I think that they're going to get after Russ Willes.
Starting point is 00:54:53 Okay. It might be a tough day for him. Nerd nugget. Also on that NPFT, this is a potential milestone game for Ron Rivera. A win would give him 100 regular season wins in his coaching career. That sounds impressive until you realize how many years Ron Rivera's coach. A lot of years. Yeah, he's 99 and 90, I believe.
Starting point is 00:55:11 Yeah. Yeah, he had that one year with Cam Newton. Yeah, he's. But it's the saddest active head coach to reach 100. He should have, it's insane. Like when people, when people say that Rivera is coaching for his 100th career win, you're like, wait, he doesn't have 100 career wins yet. How did that happen? It's hard to do. Yeah, it is. It's tough. They get all this opportunity. It's tough to stay in the league for as long as Ron Rivera has. I think it's without getting to. It actually
Starting point is 00:55:37 is very, very hard to be 100 wins and almost be 500. Yeah. It's a Jeff Fisher set. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. Uh, okay. Uh, next up memes, your jets at the Cowboys. Blake Portals did get back to me. I asked him, uh, if he would like to take a meeting with the jets, knowing that he has the Nathaniel Hackett, uh, connection. I said, do you want to meet with the jets? Wanna break some news? He replied, LOL, not a chance in hell. So that's, that sounds like a no. So that's a no. That's a firm no from, that's a firm. I'm retired.
Starting point is 00:56:12 I think what's gonna happen is you have to try with Zach Wilson. Zach's your guy. Meams, I want to hear you say Zach's my guy. Your coach said it. Zach's my guy. Yep, that's some good. Zach's your guy. Zach's the guy.
Starting point is 00:56:24 Wait, is he the guy or is he your guy? He's just the guy right now because there's no one else. Oh, he's the guy right now. He's the guy right now. So TG RN right now, he's the guy. Okay. RNH TG. Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 00:56:37 So they have to say that and they have to try, but I would be shocked if playing against the Stalas Cowboys defense didn't make theets be like, well, he was the guy. Yeah. He was definitely a quarterback is what you're doing right now. Yeah, it's run the ball. Run the ball. Run the ball. I agree with that every play.
Starting point is 00:56:53 Breastball is awesome. Davaco's good too. Yep. Okay. Are you okay? I'm good. I'm going to run. I'm going to run.
Starting point is 00:57:02 Are you okay? Sounds like you're trying to convince yourself. I am trying to convince myself. Football was pretty much over week one, but I'm trying a rocker, I'm not a rocker. Are you okay? Sounds like you're trying to convince yourself. I am trying to convince myself. Football was pretty much over week one, but I'm trying to bounce back. But that video of Aaron Rodgers coming out with the American flag. That was sick.
Starting point is 00:57:14 You see a statement? What? He went dark night on everyone, right? He basically said he's coming back. Yeah. He said it's always darkest right before the dawn. Is that true? Do we have any astronomers out there
Starting point is 00:57:24 that listen to the show? Is it actually darkest right before the dawn. Is that true? Do we have any astronomers out there that listen to the show? Is it actually darkest right before the dawn? Yeah, I feel like that's not true. I feel like it gets gradually lighter before the sunrise. Yeah, a little bit lighter. Is he coming back? Yeah, totally. I think he, although he has guaranteed money,
Starting point is 00:57:37 so I don't know if he has to. Yeah, actually Aaron Roderick, well, he gave up a lot of it. But next year he gets it. So I shall rise yet again. I shall rise yet again. Okay, so he's either coming back or storming the Capitol. It seems like a one of the other. Yeah. But that that video, dude, you can just play that video. This has I actually think the jets are going to be live in this game. But you we all know sitting in this room. This has potential for disaster.
Starting point is 00:58:07 Is Aaron going to go to the game? No. Potential for disaster. Disaster. Zach Wilson drops back his 30 yard drop back in interception. He's not right away from me. Apart Mike. Oh, my God. I like me. I like me. A part.
Starting point is 00:58:21 We try to just like feminize him. It's like morning Joe's co-host. Yeah. Meekika Parsons. That's not how you say it. It's Micah, Micah. Micah. Micah. Hey, think you have Mika Fitzpatrick?
Starting point is 00:58:32 No, Mika. Mika. Mika Parsons. Mika Parsons. Don't forget Mika Parsons has a big foot fetish. Remember that video? Mhmm. He loves Parsons.
Starting point is 00:58:41 Wants to get those sacks. Rex Ryan will be watching this game intently. I don't know. What do you got? Jack Prescott also stinks. That was from Max. Yeah. Yeah. Those parts wants to get those sacks Rex Ryan will be watching this game intently Backfresh got also stinks that was for max. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, good people are not about the the Daxle Yeah, that does stink. Yeah, that sucks Like he could throw just as many picks his acquilser 100% yeah, no, I mean he wasn't they scored a defensive touchdown Special team touchdown. I actually have a fun fact. could you guys tell me the last time a team NFL history Had a 40 plus point shut out with at least one offensive defensive and special team touched down in a season opener
Starting point is 00:59:15 I cannot there's only one other team. I cannot tell you the memorable gamer is just very memorable It was the Akron pros versus the Wheeling Stodis in 1920. Who could forget that game? Dan to change the game. 43 nothing. Okay, nerd nugget. Yeah, I have one for each team. Dallas leads the NFL in takeaways and interceptions.
Starting point is 00:59:41 The Dan Quinn arrived. Oh, okay. It's one week. Yeah, okay. And also,. Yeah, okay, yeah. And also I take a lot of these from the team's game notes online, the Jets have a pro Zach Wilson one on their first project of their, of pair media guide. Zach Wilson since 2022 is third in the league and fourth quarter
Starting point is 00:59:59 passer rating. Oh, okay. He's the fourth quarter. And Zach Prescott. Mr. fourth quarter. Now does that have anything to do with prevent defense maybe Probably doesn't have anything to do the fact minimum minimum 50 dropbacks in the fourth quarter I don't think it has anything to do with the fact that they're getting their ass kicked in the fourth quarter
Starting point is 01:00:16 Yeah, yeah, the past the ball. Oh, bro Dak was that face memes. That's good. When were they getting their ass kicked in the fourth quarter last year? Last year no never Trying to think Mike white was in a lot of comeback games. Yeah, but they led when they were they went five and two before Breeze hauled out her and they led in most of those games So he might be mr. Forth quarter heard it here first and might also blow up in our faces Yeah, I this is gonna be a you're gonna have to watch this like you know through your hands Seeing how this game goes because Could get disastrous you got this you got this come on memes. You got it. It means rally for your boys You know what you could do
Starting point is 01:00:57 You could just say it's the biggest game in in jets franchise history and then you just do it the next week too And then week after that you just keep doing that It's a good coping mechanism. I highly recommend it. Yeah, you're right, memes. They were actually in all those games. So maybe it wasn't, Mr. Fourth Quarter. The year before when he was a rookie, yes.
Starting point is 01:01:15 They went like three and 13. So we're counting those, too, though, right? Yeah, you get to count those since 2022. Oh, since 2022. So it's just last year. And last week. So last year and last week so last year and last week Third or fourth quarter pass the rating in the league behind burrow and duck entrance. Oh
Starting point is 01:01:30 But if you count in rookie year then it's You can build on this. It's all right. I like you can build on this. Yeah, all right last afternoon game giants a cardinals So how should we rank the giants knowing the table just partied his balls off on oh, yeah, did you get that wrong? At the time I use all available information, okay, and it was like 30 minutes I was in the Uber home back with Max and I was like I'm gonna look really bad from this It came out. It was like six-year-old birthday material change what I saw it happened. I was like yes, I'm so happy we already recorded Yeah, I knew I was screwed from the beginning then Giants Twitter came at me
Starting point is 01:02:08 but at the time Michael K had the issue in on air apology good it sounded like when I saw this report I thought Michael K was fucking with everybody and he was like they had a big party yeah was for a six-year-old but it was okay Jake I'm gonna get you back for a little bit here no I was I should know I mean I know you're back for a little bit there. No, I was, I shouldn't have. No, no, no, no, no, we need your back for a little bit. There is also a good possibility that he got fucked up at his six year old's birthday party. This is cards, parents like to drink at their kids' party.
Starting point is 01:02:32 Yeah, Michael Cage just did a confirmation by his investigation. It was like, how do you lose 40 to nothing? Okay, did he drink last night? Yeah, where's it a party? Yeah. Did he have a party, Jake? It was a party.
Starting point is 01:02:42 He has pizza, a late night party. Yeah. I'll just say right now, if you eat a lot of pizza, that's, you can get Justin's hung over. He did look big. He did look big. That is a fact. If you stuff yourself with pizza,
Starting point is 01:02:52 you could feel just as bad that I said. When they did the side by side shot of the two coaches, Dable, he did look like he was, he was challenging McCarthy. Yeah, he was doing something. All right, so I, I mean, I think the giants, I'm gonna learn that the Cardinals are bad. Maybe I still think that their defense is going to be pretty good. Yeah. I think the giants are going to win this game. Their defense is violent.
Starting point is 01:03:13 Yeah. Well, what max? PFT is only saying that because the commanders barely beat them. No, I'm saying that because if you watch the X videos and the Twitter profile of water max, that defense was headhunting. But it might have also been Sam Howell not being super decisive. No, no, it was good. They were coached that way. Okay, I'm telling you watch, watch the Cardinals this week.
Starting point is 01:03:35 Tell me that they don't take like sneaking violence shots. So funny if the giants put up like 15. No, no, I'm fucked. The Cardinals, the Cardinals defense is sneaky good. As nothing to do with Sam Howell, doing a reverse spin move and drop a ball into the end zone. As nothing to do with Sam, how forgetting to slide and getting his head put into a leg lock.
Starting point is 01:03:53 As nothing to do with Sam, how remaining upright as he's going to the sidelines and getting his head knocked off, that defense. They coach that. They coach that. They're dirty team. PFT was really upset that the commanders had the same odds to win the Super Bowl as the bears and the giants. I was. We should be we're one and oh. I mean, you played the worst team. That's it.
Starting point is 01:04:10 We're one and oh. I played the worst one of the best defenses in the league. We're one and oh. Uh, okay. You want to bet on Zach Erts to score a touchdown. He's a touchdown in five straight games versus New York. He has more touchdown receptions versus the giant seven than Seven and then against any other team in his career. What team was he playing for?
Starting point is 01:04:26 He was playing for the Eagles. Yeah. It's true. Yeah. It is true, but he was playing on the Eagles. Again, these teams love to like boost their teams up. Yeah. This is a birthday party, FACJ.
Starting point is 01:04:37 Yeah. You have to read it in context. It's true. Now I'm gonna have to bet it. I'm gonna have to bet him a score, touch down. I'll have to do it. Who's gonna throw it to him? Because I don't wanna look like a fool. Is it Josh Dobbs or is it Clayton Tune?
Starting point is 01:04:48 I don't know, but he keeps his guess. He loves playing against the Giants. All right, so Uber Eats, what are we gonna get for dinner? I'm gonna throw something out there. Yeah. Burritos. Ooh, I like burritos. Yeah, oh, we got a yes for memes.
Starting point is 01:05:02 All right. Okay, so are we deciding it? Uber Eats, burritos, Sunday night football? Yeah. Cause we got a yes for me. All right. Okay, so are we deciding it Uber Eats burritos? Sunday night football? Yeah, because we're gonna try to live stream. We're gonna try to we're gonna try to get in the studio for at least a second half so Hank can march a second half. Well, Hank and Jake, your two teams are playing.
Starting point is 01:05:16 What do you think? I think it'll be a good game. It's good sushi. Sushi? Oh, for eating the dolphins. Oh, okay. Yeah, we might have to wait for burritos. Maybe we get burritos tonight on Uber Eats. Yeah, that sounds good. Okay. So yeah, let's do that. And then we'll get sushi,
Starting point is 01:05:31 Uber Eats. You should watch the cove. Okay. We can get hyped up. Get almost anything order now. Uber Eats. Last game. Sunday night football. Here's a fun fact. Patriots or dolphins at Patriots that I didn't realize you guys probably saw this on Twitter on X To his middle name is Donnie. I did not know that. Did you know that? Is that true? Donnie because anyone can can edit Wikipedia. No, it's on pro football reference to sometimes they Funga and I his name is toon. Yeah, I got a little bit of a whole name. I got a little bit of a hard in the process. Okay, say the whole name to a yeah, I got a little you say the whole name I got a little name in the process. Okay, say the whole name to a ningo of Manu O let Pola tongue of I law. No, you had to say the middle name. What do you mean? Oh, Donnie. Yeah, come on, that
Starting point is 01:06:14 was all point to saying it. Yeah, saying it again. To a ningo Manu O let Pola Donnie tongue of I love see that box. That's a fucking great game really is donny yeah i love the two of when they asked some still can't throw deep and he's just like 466 oh what was you guys had me do uh what's his name from the box veta vea his name i forgot it but i did it like uh i have one question about this game outside of the fact that to a i i didn't know that I could become a bigger to a fan a bigger to a non fan
Starting point is 01:06:47 But the fact that his name is Donnie fucking rocks Donnie to make sure he should be Donnie. Yeah It's a night game You're gonna light the lighthouse. I think they have to both I think the lighthouse is actually gonna be awesomeness Are they gonna like both? They got rid of the first one big cat because remember they had to build they built a bigger scoreboard. That was bigger than the old scoreboards. They had to destroy the old lighthouse and then they built a bigger lighthouse to look over the bigger scoreboard. Will they be lighting
Starting point is 01:07:17 the lighthouse? Hank? Duh. Okay. Who's the keeper of the light this week? Do you know? Probably someone G. G like Teddy bruski Donnie Walberg will you will affect your bet seeing who lights the lighthouse? No, okay Are you excited to see the lighthouse at night? I'm cannot wait I need to get into this lighthouse Here's a fun fact about the lighthouse. I Actually have one ready for you. It's actually the second biggest lighthouse in america you idiot
Starting point is 01:07:47 no more on what's the biggest uh... old one the statue of liberty oh it was used as a lighthouse you'd fucking more on the american history okay it was used oh it doesn't mean it is currently question question for your heck is the current lighthouse at fox in Foxboro at Gillette stadium? Is that used as a lighthouse? Yes, clearly. No, it's not because in the in the own description at the Patriots have they put it in quotation marks because it's not a real lighthouse. It is a real no wise in quotations, Hank. I don't know because it's not a real lighthouse So are you are you are you nervous about this fact that it's a quotation? I think PFD, this lighthouse lives rent free and PFD is free.
Starting point is 01:08:28 I like the PFD did research on the lighthouse in the country. Besides the Statue of Liberty. No, false. Not counting the most famous off of the Statue of Liberty? Yeah, you can, Hank. You can't. Yeah, that's a matter of fact. No, you absolutely can.
Starting point is 01:08:41 Yeah. You've 100% can. No, you can't. Yes, you can. You want it. Yeah, but you can. But you put it% can. No, you can't. Yes, you can. You want it. Yeah, but you can. But you put up a phone one. No, no, big guy, this is interesting because I have a follow question to Hank's inaccurate question.
Starting point is 01:08:52 Can you climb to the top of the lighthouse in New England, Hank? Yeah, I could get out there. Actually, you can't because they're not even selling tickets to get up to the top of the lighthouse until October. So it's a non-fault you don't like. Oh, Hank, you got to go. They don't sell tickets to climb to the top of the lighthouse until October. So it's a non-fogional light. Oh, hey, you gotta go. They don't sell tickets to climb
Starting point is 01:09:06 to the top of the Statue of Liberty either. That's exactly what you tried to gotcha, lighthouse fact me, by saying. The act of it is limited. It's possible. So it's easy, so you can get out of it. It depends. So retract your time here.
Starting point is 01:09:16 You can climb to the top of the little Statue of Liberty. Is there a white at the top of that thing? Yeah, it's the torch. It's the most famous torch in America. Yeah, come on, dude. They lighten up on every shot. All right, whatever. Well luckily Hank and their path the Patriots are back
Starting point is 01:09:30 American lighthouse though. The statue of Liberty. It was built in France. It was gifted to us. Yeah. It's the most American thing in the world on American Trojan horse. Yeah, there I still think that to this day There's like some dead 400-year-old French soldiers inside. Yeah, that just they that to this day, there's like some dead 400 year old French soldiers inside. Yeah. That just they couldn't get out. Yeah. What do you got, Jake? And they're pat the Patriot throwbacks at home.
Starting point is 01:09:50 The Patriots. Oh, they're wearing those? Seven and one. Oh, that's big. They're seven and one but they just lost their most recent to the bills last year. I'm before that seven in a row. I'm gonna put myself in Hank's head real quick.
Starting point is 01:10:00 When he hears the pat the Patriots throwback, he thinks of that Titans game in the snow where they scored like 30 points in a quarter. Yeah, Brady like six touchdowns in the first half. This might be a uniform game. Yeah, are the dolphins wearing. I don't believe so. Okay, that would rock. I do have a sad stat. You know, about the light. Speaking of the torch. No, I'll be real shame if someone jumped off the light. I'll be a real shame if someone jumped off the lighthouse. Home underdogs in the bell check era, including this week, with Tom Brady,
Starting point is 01:10:27 there was 141 games, they were home underdogs 10 times. Since Tom Brady or without Tom Brady has been 46 games, they've been home underdogs 15 times. But those were, that was with the old lighthouse. Fact. Fact. Only one is with the new lighthouse. Yep.

The three of them are competing against each other.
Starting point is 01:11:31 The last place person in that group will have to do the 15 minute intro, opening act, and then me, PFT and Hank will compete for the hour slot. So the last place person in the three of us will be the hour. So that way you're guaranteed me, PFT or Hank will be putting on the hour show. Hopefully that will help when we eventually do put this out. Yeah. Also, I feel like this would be a good time to update the pancake lead. Yeah. So congratulations to Hank. A huge week.

Starting point is 01:18:39 Oh, no, I just answered it myself. Oh, whoa. Now you got a title. Get a little insight into the conversation that just went on inside of your brain. Yeah, that was great. I just saw the, I know this probably happened a few years ago.
Starting point is 01:18:50 I know what happened a few years ago. I saw the wild card standings. There's three wild card teams. And I was like, how the fuck does that work? Oh, you just saw a number of wild teams. You didn't realize as high as I was about to say that. I remember the division winners. Yeah, six.
Starting point is 01:19:04 And then the first two get a buy and then the One of the division winners has to play in the wild card opening weekend three game series at the home team So we are getting Cubs Philly's Cubs are losing right now. It's on pace So it's not for five match game left like 14 14 yeah, Max. What do you think about? The fact that in Philadelphia, they congratulate the Braves on winning the division in their own stadium. I think that was probably the grossest thing that I've ever seen in a Philadelphia.
Starting point is 01:19:32 Yeah, I was back. Not the murderer that they caught wearing an eagle shirt. And pose with him. Yeah, that was awesome. He was so good. He's got to wear clothes. They held him up like he was in the middle of the floor. He just had to wear clothes.
Starting point is 01:19:42 Like a deer, they just shot. Like holding him by his hoodie like it's antlers just posing for that picture is an absolute joke I do think that anyone that gets arrested They should have to wear the shirt or baseball cap of their favorite team during the mug shot Yeah, that way we can all be like look at this Yankees fan that just got arrested for triple homicide go birds Yeah, go birds Okay, let's get to our great interview with joke you know in person It's brought to you by our friends at Morgan and Morgan on today's episode.

Okay, we now welcome on a recurring guest, our friend Joaquim Noah.
Starting point is 01:21:36 Actually, last time we had you on, I was looking it up. It was maybe one week before COVID. So it was February 2020. So it's good to see you. Good that we all made it through. You week before COVID. So it was February 2020. So it's good to see you, good that we all made it through. You're in Chicago, you have the one city, one love, basketball tournament that we were just talking about before, is an awesome, awesome thing you're doing that we'd love to get involved in.
Starting point is 01:21:58 But for people who don't know, can you explain what exactly you guys are doing? Yeah, well, thanks for having me. It's good to do bar stool in the shy. I think that this is where bar stool belongs. And just to be back, not having played with the bulls for almost 10 years, and to be able to do these leagues and still be involved in the community, something that's really cool. One city is a league that we started with, Kobe Williams and Noah's Ark Foundation.
Starting point is 01:22:33 And it's working with 28 violence prevention groups and using their mentorship to bring in kids. And we're doing it through a league. We're paying the kids, we're doing it through a league. We're paying the kids, we're incentivizing the kids and this is the first season and the finals are tomorrow. Yep. We're really excited. We're doing it at 167 Green Street, that beautiful court overlooking the whole city. Looks like it's in the clouds. Yeah. So we're all really excited. the clouds. Yeah, so we're all really excited. The kids are excited. And you know, it's been it's been great, man. Just just the support, the love and just everybody just uniting to,
Starting point is 01:23:15 to, you know, put in work in the communities that need it. And I think that's what it's all about. It's great because basketball is like the universal language. You get people playing basketball and you can, you know, be competitors on the court and then shake hands after. I mean, it's a great product. I, we said before, next year, we're going to try to set it up that you guys can play some games in our new office when we open it up, which would be incredible. I appreciate that big hat.
Starting point is 01:23:38 And it's just like, you know, it's cool because we can talk about it. We're all in this together. And what I tell the guys is nobody's bigger than the work. So, you know, whether I pull up or the kid who's playing, like, we're all, we all have the same input and we're all trying to grow this thing together. So, it's the beginning. It's been really special and let's just keep building. Yeah, yeah. I also, the last time we had you on,
Starting point is 01:24:05 like I said, was before COVID, you have since Squash your beef with KG. That is Squash? That is Squash, and it started here. Remember you guys talking about it. We brought it up. We brought it up. He was just doing his movie with Adam Sandler.
Starting point is 01:24:18 Yep, yes. And you know, you were talking about the beef from like 10 years ago. And you know, people come up to me in the street all the time, like, yo, KG man, the fuck KG didn't, and I'm like, yo, man, I got kids. I'm not tripping about this stuff. This is a long time ago, so.
Starting point is 01:24:35 I was wondering if you're thinking about Kevin Grenade. Yeah, I'm like, damn, people are still on that. So there was an opportunity to just really go know, really go and talk to him and vibe with him on his show and talk about what we're doing in Chicago. You know, he spent a lot of time here in high school and, you know, gets a lot of love out here in the city, so I just wanted to, you know, let him know what we were doing and he's all about it. And it was just like cool to have that conversation with somebody that
Starting point is 01:25:12 you really looked up to then became kind of like arrival and then you know you can kind of talk about all those times and and squash it and see what's up for the future. Yeah. Did he say he was sorry? He kind of did. He said yeah, I I should call you bitch. I'm sorry Basically, you basically us what happened. Yeah, so that you you won that argument then if he had to apologize He's kind of a bitch I forgot Bustu you guys all about that bullshit We just reached like I came you want to come and talk about one city Jo Kim Noah says Kevin Garnett's a bait. No.
Starting point is 01:25:47 I swear that. I called him a bitch for you. You just watched the beef. I just restarted for myself. Oh, but it... Talk about that with him later. Yeah, it is cool to see what you're doing here. Chicago, I have to imagine Chicago has a very special place in your heart for you want
Starting point is 01:26:04 to come back in the community and do something like this. You just tell us, I'm sure Big Cat knows because he was here watching you play at the time, but what was your connection with the city of Chicago? And the city was everything. I mean, you're playing for one of the most special sports teams in the world, so much history. I didn't know much about the city before I got here. I just knew it was a tough city. I just wanted to go out there and play hard every night.
Starting point is 01:26:36 I don't know. I think that our teams, during that time, were teams that this city was really proud of. And, you know, those are the most special times I had on the court, you know, I still, some of my best friends today were from those teams, you know, you know, Taj, you see what Lual is doing right now, you know, coaching South Sudan. It's the newest country in the world, and they're going to qualify for the Olympics. It's crazy, yeah. And it's all because of the loose work. You know, this is the guy who was sitting next to on the plane for eight years, and now he's really using his platform to do things that are just so much bigger than just basketball. He started a basketball culture and student in South Sudan
Starting point is 01:27:27 and they're gonna qualify. How many times not to bring up a bad memory, but because I probably, I'd say probably once a month, I think about what if Derek Rose didn't get injured? How many times do you think that pop in your head? We're like fuck, especially that year when, the balls were the one seed and the first injury. Does it just like, you know, you'll be daydreaming and you'll be like, damn, that sucked.
Starting point is 01:27:50 Yeah, I'm not going to lie. That was a really tough moment for him, but for all of us, you know, when you have that hope of winning a championship. And I think that hope and those emotions were, you know, everybody in the city was, we're feeling those emotions, you know. So, yeah, it was definitely tough. I felt like we could have won some championships for sure. But the reality is what you remember is what you have at the end when this is all said and done is your friends, your relationships and your memories. And you know what, those were great memories,
Starting point is 01:28:26 you know, being with those guys and battling with those guys, I wouldn't change that for anything. And even though, you know, that was tough, we're still tight, we're still cool, and we're gonna keep building. So that's to me, that's what it's all about. Yeah, there were some rumors at the time that LeBron was considering coming to Chicago.
Starting point is 01:28:44 Were you excited about that possibility or were you a little bit apprehensive? Like it is going to be an entire thing about LeBron coming here. It's going to change the dynamic of the team that we have right now. Change the culture. Were you like were you looking forward to that happening? Or was it more of like it be cool if it did, but I could deal without all the drama. Cool that not how come I was trying do without all the drama. Cool. No, no, come on. I was trying to I was recruiting him. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:29:10 I was trying to get him to come to Chicago. All those guys Chris Bosh, Dewey, um, you know, but I think that the whole thing was just great. Just the battles against them. You know, I really felt like if we were healthy, we would have got them. But it was cool because it wasn't, it wasn't, it wasn't a thing where it wasn't just Chicago that was rooting against them. It was the whole, the whole country, and against the heat. So it was like everywhere you went, people were like, you're fucked to heat. And we were the team that kind of
Starting point is 01:29:41 had a shot. And you know, it was like, we had all the, we all came through the draft. It was just like the way that we were built. Just like it was something that we could really be proud of. You know, we were all brothers, like first checks together. Like, you know, this is, this is, we're going up against, you know, the other side of just free agency and super team. We're like, you fuck all that shit. And you know, like, we're the guys who are just like,
Starting point is 01:30:05 who did it right through the draft and we're going at you guys. So they beat us every time, but in the playoffs, but they were definitely some battles I'll never forget. The Derrick Rose at the All Star game, when they're all dancing, and he's just all business. That was like the embodiment of like the two teams at that time. And yeah, I mean, the balls fell short, just all business. That was like the embodiment of like the two teams at that time. And yeah, I mean, the bulls fell short
Starting point is 01:30:26 but it was, it did feel like, oh man, if everyone can get healthy, there's a chance here. There was also a rumor that you were going to maybe join LeBron out in the Lakers and then they signed Dwight Howard. Yeah. That would have killed me just so you know. If you had been teammates with LeBron and like slapping him on the ass and like laughing at his jokes, it would have killed me a little bit.
Starting point is 01:30:47 Yeah, it didn't happen and it's probably a good thing. Yeah, did you think about that? Like, I'm going to have to laugh at all those jokes. I'm going to have to talk about the Godfather. Like, I'm going to drink his wine. You know, at that point, I mean, I'm sure it would have been pretty good. The wine. It probably drinks pretty good wine.
Starting point is 01:31:06 You know what? I don't, it's, maybe it's better. It just didn't happen. Yeah. And, you know, overall, I'm just, at that point, I was surviving. So I was just trying to get a gig, you know, even before I talk to you guys, it's like, yeah, it's March or April.
Starting point is 01:31:21 I don't have a team, you know, I hadn't played in a couple of years. So, you know, when that's taken away from you, shit, I would have went anywhere. Yeah, you would have done anything. Do you play pick up at all? Cause I always imagine like if you're a professional athlete, maybe you've removed from the game for a couple of years,
Starting point is 01:31:40 then you just start playing pick up and dominating people, how much fun that would be. You do that ever, like randomly show up to a game Like I'm just gonna I'm just gonna beat everyone here. I don't but I'm all the thing my problem is I'll go to games And I'll be like yo, I think I can still bust his ass But I can't my home he always tells me he's like nah, you can't you you have you have no shot We went to a WNBA game yesterday my home you mad said, you know, I don't think you can be her in one-on-one. I'm like, you're crazy. But anyway, it's just, you know, it's just the competition.
Starting point is 01:32:14 You need someone to give you a check, but I would imagine, yeah, you're sitting there like, fuck you. Let me get, let me get 10 minutes. Yeah, but, you know, I'm even 10 minutes. It's a lot of work that goes into even playing 10 minutes. You know, you can't just go out there and just, you'll get hurt. Basketball is no joke, man. We're gonna get back to Jo Kim, known a second. He's brought to you by Zbiotics. This is crazy.
Starting point is 01:32:35 So I've been actually using Zbiotics for the last three years. I got introduced to it by a friend who knows somebody at the company, wild that they're advertising now in part of my take. I do use it. I order a new box of Zbiotics like two or three times a year. We all have busy lives these days. We can't afford to waste a day stuck on the couch
Starting point is 01:32:54 because of a few drinks the night before Zbiotics is the answer we've all been looking for. I swear by Zbiotics. Donnie just came over a few weekends ago, gave Donnie some Zbiotics before we started drinking. He felt great the next day. They were stocked in the beach house when I was living in the Jersey shore. You would take a Z-biotics once you started drinking.
Starting point is 01:33:13 It makes you feel so much better the next day. It was invented by PhD scientists to tackle rough mornings after drinking. Z-biotics pre-alcohol probiotic is the world's first genetically engineered probiotic. Here's how it works. When you drink, alcohol gets converted into a toxic byproduct in your gut. It's this byproduct, not dehydration that's to blame for your rough next day. Z-biotics produces an enzyme to break this byproduct down. It's designed to work like you're liver, but in your gut, where you need it the most.
Starting point is 01:33:43 Just remember to drink Z-biotics before drinking alcohol, drink responsibly, and get a good night's sleep to fuel your best tomorrow. I use Z-biotics. I actually have a new shipment of Z-biotics in my house right now that I ordered using my own money. I've been spending money on Z-biotics for years now. Now that the sponsors maybe get some for free, that'd be nice, but I'm still going to buy it. I'm still going to buy it because it works. I love Z-biotics. I've turned a bunch of people onto it. You guys will enjoy it. You guys will feel so much better at the morning after a night drinking. This Halloween, you can pair your candy and cocktails with Zbiotics to avoid a spooky next morning.

I think member one Erlacker did his whole hair transplant. Yeah. What if you did a shot transplant and all of a sudden you're like warming up and you have like a sick three point shot now, not the push shot. That'd be cool.
Starting point is 01:35:23 Are you going to help me change the form? Yeah, let's go. We got Mark Titus here. Yeah, play a shooting coach. You beat him in the national championship, he was on the bench. But you probably, you definitely beat him directly. Yeah, you're like, fuck that. He actually told us a very funny story
Starting point is 01:35:36 that I want to hear your side from. He said that Greg Oden in the national championship, it didn't dawn on him till they were, he was standing on the free throw line with like maybe a minute and a half left and it was like It might have been Al or Cory Brewer being like you know We're gonna get fucked up tonight and we got so many women ready like back at the place and Greg was like shit Those are supposed to be my checks and that was the moment. He was like I we lost the national title
Starting point is 01:36:00 So was it as fun as as like, Newey was missing out on? Wow, what a question. Holy shit. It was a long time ago, you know, yeah. But you can imagine like getting that chip and bring it back to school. I mean, it was so good. We came back for a second year. Yeah, yeah. So, you know, they're like, yeah, you can go to the NBA now. We're like, I know we're gonna stay in college Which it's smart probably will not be done again in today's college basketball like back to back champs
Starting point is 01:36:31 Is gonna be very hard with all the movement transfer or everything like you guys might be we might be in 20 years talking about the fact that Oh, yeah, Florida was the last team to do it back to back. I mean they should yeah, they should that's come on man It was a hell of a run. You know, there's not a lot of guys who, you know, you say, here's the Jing, here's the money. And you say, now I'm going back to school. And that's why I'm like, I'm so proud of those years, man, because it was, it wasn't about the bread.
Starting point is 01:36:59 Yeah. You also had the collection of maybe the wildest group of athletes ever assembled on one college campus at one time between the basketball team and the football team. Have you ever get Ryan Lockty and Ryan Lockty and Daniels Aaron, right? So if all those guys like who on the football team were you guys were you as coolest with like was there? Did you guys hang out between the two groups or was it we did?
Starting point is 01:37:21 All teams doing our thing. We were all tight, man. Yeah. And it all tight, man. And it worked out. You know, it was, I mean, when you're winning, you can imagine, you're on a college campus like UF. I mean, there was enough for everybody. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:37:36 You don't have to be, you know, it wasn't. Well, T-Boh doesn't take any, so he's. Right. Exactly. That's more for him. That's right, that's right. You ever hang out with T-Boh and just like wait for girls to come up to him and then he's like okay I'll introduce you. I'm not gonna take it.
Starting point is 01:37:50 Greatest wing man. Now he wasn't a great he wasn't a great wing man but you know he just made it so fun man. Sky was he was a savage on that field you know so you know he was he was just that's all he cared about lifting weights and You all that extra all that extra testosterone, you know, I'm saying when you're not getting any box It's bill all that build up. It's it's a real thing. It makes you obese on the field. Yeah, I mean hello What so Billy Donovan your coach Florida, now obviously the coach of the Bulls, what is it about him that can give confidence to, because the Bulls are in a weird spot, right now, they're kind of in a transition. Don't really like one foot in, one foot out, talent,
Starting point is 01:38:38 but maybe not all the pieces. Do you still, you have confidence that Billy, like, what's his coaching style that will get them through this? I love coach Donovan, you know, I think he's like he's just a real good balanced dude who's great coach But you know pull you to the side talk to you and and you know Coach you hard when you need it too. So I think he has the the right balance of like really getting guys and getting the best out of guys So I'm happy he's here and I'm looking forward to a big year this year. Yeah. You've famously squashed the beef with KG as we mentioned.
Starting point is 01:39:14 Have you squashed the beef with George W. Bush? I can't do that. Yeah. What was the beef? Well, you went to the White House. Oh, yeah. You decided to, you know, I'll respect the building, the office of presidency, but I'm going to leave my shirt on top.
Starting point is 01:39:27 Yeah, is that what happened? That's what I read. Is that, you told me, I don't know. What'd you read that in the post, New York Post? I'm not sure. I might be missing some facts here, but yeah, what I read was you decided to go to the White House, but you're like, I'm going to leave my shirt on tucked
Starting point is 01:39:41 out of protest for the war in Iraq. I mean, I just kept my shirt on tuck. They had nothing to do with a protest. Don't overthink it. But I mean, yeah, I do have my views and I didn't feel like we should be out there at all. And it was tough to be in that position when, you know, you don't align with the president's views. line with the presence views, but I also knew that, you know, me not going with this was a moment that was bigger than me. And I was thinking about my teammates as well. Like if
Starting point is 01:40:12 I hadn't went without a done for them. So, you know, being as respectful as possible, even though, you know, I didn't agree with a lot of things that were going on at the time as a 19-year-old kid. And as athletes, that's a tough position to be in. Because you know, eyes were on us. We had just won the championship. I was the MVP of the final four. And you don't go. it's not just you. And that's, these are things that, these are lessons that I live with today. It's like when I make decisions,
Starting point is 01:40:53 or when I say things, it doesn't affect just me. It affects my whole team. It's my whole crew. And so, yeah, I have my views and at the time, you know, that was a decision I had to make. And I think people felt that I wasn't real comfortable being at the White House during that time. But, you know, I did it for my teammates.
Starting point is 01:41:19 Yeah, it is kind of strange that they take a bunch of kids basically and they invite them to the White House for a photo op as they're currently sending the other kids overseas to find a ward. That's a strange position that you put in. That's rough. You can't go drink a bruski, but you can go and...
Starting point is 01:41:37 You didn't drink at all at Florida. Come on. I don't know. We were late, but I mean, I think it was interesting. It's interesting that we talk about this because think about it. We can barely have conversations in the living room if people have different views nowadays. Yeah, it's true. And as an athlete, you're expected, go shake hands at the highest level.
Starting point is 01:42:05 So, you know, those were, that's real talk. Yeah, what about your beef with Obama? You got beef with all the presents. Are you talking shit to him? Yeah, well, you talk shit to him. Apparently, he talks shit to you, too, right? Plan basketball. I mean, he's like, oh, yeah, yeah, just because you talk shit doesn't mean you got beef, man.
Starting point is 01:42:23 So beef squash with Obama. Come on of course. Of course. What's his game like? He's pretty good. Yeah, but it's pretty good. The guys he's playing against taking him taking it easy on him. I wasn't okay.
Starting point is 01:42:37 Did you swat him? I mean, I tried like, but I was like, you're not getting nothing. Cause he was he was talking a little crash and so I was like, you're not getting nothing. Because he was talking a little crash. And so I was like, okay, you know, I'm gonna put that press on you. I'm not gonna let you just, because you're the present. So I went hard.
Starting point is 01:42:54 He had to feel it. Yeah, I'm sure you've thought of this and not been asked about this. But how much money do you think you guys that Florida team would've made if the NIL existed? Because I mean, it's great that kids are getting paid now. It's awesome. It took too long to get there. But I always think about the college athletes, like the Johnny Manzell doc where it's like these guys would have been rolling in it.
Starting point is 01:43:20 And they deserved it. To have you, have you had that calculation in your head, you would have been selling shavis, sandwiches, and pizzas, and just doing everything. Yeah, it would have been nice, but I'm not tripping. I think that I'm proud of my journey, and I can go to sleep at night in peace. But I think it's a good thing, but it's only the start of the fight. You know, this final four thing generates what billions of dollars. You know, so some guys are getting paid on, can sell the pizza and, but not everybody. And, you know, this thing is generating a
Starting point is 01:43:59 lot of bread. And, you know, you know, what's the final four, your parents should be able to go to the final four. I mean, you guys are generating billions of dollars. Like, that's not so okay. And that's nice. That's nice. But there's, it's a band-aid. Yeah, there's more work to be done. Yeah, that's tough because the people who deserve more of the share being the players, they're only on campus for one, two, three years and it's tough for them to get together and make any sort of like lobbying effort or change anything that's going on until it's too late and they're already gone and then after they move on to the next level or whatever the case is, then they're not going to all get back together and continue to apply pressure on the NCAA.
Starting point is 01:44:45 It's a tough position. So have you thought about like what would be a fair way to share all that money? I mean, no, I haven't thought about it, to be honest, but it should. It should. And you know, I'm not educated enough to, I just know that there's some things off. Yeah. Something's off. This thing is generating too much money
Starting point is 01:45:09 and guys are getting NIL deals and like, no, there's a piece of the pie, like television revenue. Like, come on. Why aren't the guys and the girls getting paid off that? And I think that that's what, okay, free education, yeah? Yes, great, we need that. But we deserve a piece of the pie. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:45:33 How much, when you watched Devon Booker, you know, he's been ascendant the last couple of years. How much credit do you think you deserve for double teaming him in that practice? Oh my God, that's crazy. Yeah. Yo. Yes, we're double team that practice? Oh my God, that's crazy. Yo. Yes, we're double teaming. Since the initialism at its finest.
Starting point is 01:45:49 Well, then you tell us at the record straight, I mean, I loved it. It was like, oh yeah, Jo Kim still got that dog in him. It never stops. No, but I mean, come on, man. Like the guys were playing to 11. The guy has like the first nine buckets of the game. I'm like, yo, it's a close game. I'm not trying to get off the court. Like I get it. Some some guys might not care about winning in pick up
Starting point is 01:46:11 Like I want to fucking win. Yeah, you know, it was just second nature to me. And then the next thing I know is like this Shit is going viral and fucking everybody's like Kobe's talking about like what he would do. I'm like, oh shit. This is and fucking everybody's like Kobe's talking about like what he would do. I'm like, oh shit, this is this is a real conversation and then I go to I'm at Nobu and Malibu like the next day and who do I bump in right away. It's like debucks in there. It's like weird like so what's up. Yeah, as you looking for the double team, here comes again. It was a great clip. You're like, fuck yeah, I'm playing hard. I mean, that is, that hearing that side of it, like there's nothing worse if you're playing pickup at any level than having to sit for a while.
Starting point is 01:46:53 Like you wanna keep winning. You wanna stay on the court for five, six games? Yeah, and if it's not about trying to win, like what the fuck are we doing? Yeah, what's the point? Yeah, this is boring. Yeah. You gotta wanna win. I'd imagine Tib's watched that clip. It? Yeah, what's the point? What's the point? This is boring. Yeah. You got to want to win.
Starting point is 01:47:06 I'd imagine Tib's watched that clip. It was like, that's my guy. He never gives up. He was proud. Yeah, he probably was like, well, he was like, I just hope that Joaquin played 46 minutes that can. He probably didn't give a fuck.
Starting point is 01:47:18 Yeah. He is, I mean, I love Tib's. He's an incredible basketball coach. Was there ever a time where you're like, hey, can you take a little easy on us? Like, we don't have to go this crazy all the time. I mean, almost every day. You told them that.
Starting point is 01:47:31 I mean, tips you at your wiling. You know how many times I would see Kyle Corver before practice. He would stay in his car until the last minute. And I would walk by and I would see Kyle. And it was just like his eyes were wide open. And he just, like, you knew what he was thinking. He's like, I don't know if I would see Kyle and it was just like his eyes were wide open He just like you knew what he was thinking. He's like, I don't know if I can do this Yeah, he's like fucking we just had a game and we're doing defensive slides
Starting point is 01:47:53 It's like what the fuck is going on. There's no other team that's doing it And then he's just looking at his books like Number one number one defensive team, you know, best rotations and then he's like, that's because you guys are doing it the day after practice, man, that's why we're doing it. Yeah. And I mean, the results of the results are there, it probably true.
Starting point is 01:48:14 That's why Kyle Corver keeps getting out of the car. Exactly. It's so funny, because I think everybody out there's been been at a job that they hate where they pull that exact and just think of going into the last second and the parking lot. And then it starts creeping over and you get out of your car like one minute late. And it's yeah, that's the big sigh
Starting point is 01:48:30 and Calcourt was a millionaire many times over and she's like, ah, here we go again. Tips with Tips is nuts, man. Like you'd win by you'd be winning by 20 points if, you know, if they made two threes at the end of the game and we won by 14, he could come into the locker room and be going nuts on us. Like we lost. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:48:51 I mean, what the fuck just happened? We won by 15, bro. Like chill. Yeah. But that was the vibe at the time. I'm sure he's chill. No, he hasn't chilled at all. No. No, definitely not. I mean, you used to tell me, he hasn't chilled at all. No. No, definitely not.
Starting point is 01:49:05 I mean, you used to tell me, you know him obviously very well, it feels like all he does is basketball. Like he just eat, I would imagine he lives in his office, like with, you know, a bunch of Chinese food containers out and he's just,
Starting point is 01:49:17 he's just basically cracking the code to basketball at all times. I mean, wouldn't you want that to be your coach? Yeah, exactly. Exactly. He might not have been in his office because Garformon and John Paxon were definitely bugging his office And you know that that's true. You know that's true. Come on
Starting point is 01:49:34 Shout out to Pat Those are the best times. They're not worried about no bugs man I see what they're trying to do on bar school. They're not gonna catch me guys I'll keep my thoughts to myself, but I have a lot of thoughts. We can talk about it. It's crazy how much you know about this shit. Well, I mean, I lived through it. I was just like, there's, I mean, tips was you said it, but like the way he had you guys
Starting point is 01:49:58 playing in the middle of February, when a lot of teams can, you know, take an off night or, or be like, all right, well, we had back-to-backs. We had a long road trip. That bull's team, every single night, brought all the intensity and it was awesome to watch because you I always I always use you as a description for, you know, we're fans. We we root for the Jersey and we want the players to care as much about the franchise and the city as we do. And I always point to you as being one of those guys. Just like when you watch him, you know how much he cares. And those are the best guys to root for. Appreciate that.
Starting point is 01:50:32 Yeah. Yeah. And that's why we're still here. Yeah. You know, and all the guys who are on those teams, you know, they it wasn't it wasn't me or tibbles like the whole squad one to 15. Yeah. And that's why, yeah, that's why we're tight to this day.
Starting point is 01:50:48 You know, like, you'll never hear me. I'll tell jokes about tips and shit, but I love tips. Yeah. I love packs. I love all those guys. You know, it's just really, really special times. And it's 10 years later and we're talking about doing work in the community and doing all this stuff. But it was because of those teams. And even though we didn't win, those teams resonated and
Starting point is 01:51:10 our coach had that identity. Like, you know, back to back, I don't give a fuck, you guys are playing 40 minutes and people look at it now like, you guys are crazy. But you know what, that's in some way, like that represents what this city is all about. So, yeah, I'm proud of those teams. Yeah, where do you go to, do you have an outlet right now to get that competitive fire out? Because like you're such a passionate player, such a passionate athlete, you get,
Starting point is 01:51:37 it's like you enjoyed turning it up to 11. And now you said you don't play pick up basketball, so you gotta have something that you do that lets you get that fire out, right? Well, the year I retired, I started working with the basketball Africa League. And so I started, you know, I was around the game. And, you know, we're in year this four.
Starting point is 01:52:00 And I'm just like really proud to be doing work in Africa right now. You know, the people really, the kids really need it. You know, my father's side of the family is from Cameroon. Joel embied to the MVP. There's one indoor court in the whole country. You know, imagine when we can start building some real infrastructure and it's growing. It's growing. Like basketball is really not part of African culture yet, but when it is
Starting point is 01:52:29 holy shit. It's real. Yeah. I mentioned, look at the team France, you've talked about that. Like, the international game is insane right now. That's two players in the league are international guys. Yeah. Yeah, all over the world.
Starting point is 01:52:44 And then you got Victor coming. Exactly. And international guys. Yeah. Yeah, all over the world. And then you got Victor coming. Exactly. And they listen. Yeah. You know, these kids over here, you know, they got all their TikToks and stuff. So they're comfortable. I mean, they're not, they're not playing around over there.
Starting point is 01:52:55 And they listen. Can you give us a scouting report on Victor? I mean, he got the whole, you know, he's like, kids of the real deal, you know, laugh, pull up everywhere, left, right, you know, handle seven foot three. I mean, we haven't seen anything like that. So, you know, he's a guy I really, I want to go see him play two weeks before the draft. He was playing in a playoff game in France. You know, a lot of guys like here, they shut it down because they're gonna be a top pick.
Starting point is 01:53:26 No, he was playing. To me, that says a lot about the character, the guy. The guy likes to hoop. And I think there's gonna be some growing pains, but he got the perfect coach with Pop who's gonna just sit him down and be like, you know, a young fella. Just take it easy.
Starting point is 01:53:43 I've seen this before. You know, this is not a sprint, some marathon. You know, just keep working on your shit and you're gonna be all right. It is the perfect setup for him. I had one other question about the Bulls teams. At what point did you know Jimmy Butler was different? Because it is crazy to think about his path,
Starting point is 01:54:02 where he was drafted, the first couple of years with the bulls. And now he's, you know, that he run was in probable this year. The one in the bubble was crazy. Like he is a superstar. Did you have that moment where you're like, Oh, shit. This is he, yeah, he's going to be something real here. I mean, you know, Jimmy's a pride.
Starting point is 01:54:23 Toughest competitor I've ever been around. And, uh, you know, Jimmy's a pride, the toughest competitor I've ever been around. And, you know, it started right away. I mean, he got his up, he wasn't playing in the beginning. And then he had that big game in the garden where Loa got hurt or he got, he fouled out. And he had to guard Mellow the rest of the game. And we ended up winning the game. And but, you know, young Jimmy Rookie. And I think that gave him a lot of confidence. He worked his ass off.
Starting point is 01:54:52 And, you know, the sacrifices that he made in the summers were just unbelievable. I mean, people don't know this, but he was going whole summers, no TV. Jesus. Whoa, that's like, I'm out. I'm out. That's why I got that right there. That's probably the only reason why I'm not in the NBA right now.
Starting point is 01:55:10 I could never give up. Fuck that whole summer's no TV whole summer no TV. Not worth it. It's not worth a million dollars to me. What do you do? I mean, you got to practice. I guess grind waking up early like I'm gonna four a.m. 5 a.m. You know I could cheer cancer without TV like I think about how much time I I waste watching TV
Starting point is 01:55:33 That's insane. Yeah, you're right. PFT. We do the world peace. I would be I would be simultaneously simultaneously President of the United States established world peace and also in the MVP. Jesus Christ First ever of the United States established world peace and also MBA MVP. Jesus Christ. The first ever. Now all you have to do is just turn the TV off. It's still, you can tell me like, okay, PFT, you'll grow a foot and a half and you'll be the richest man in the world.
Starting point is 01:55:55 All you have to do is just never watch TV again. No, I'm out. I'm sorry, it's too much for me. I mean, it's easy to say that when you got a $500 million company. Well, it's actually $1. It's worth a dollar. It's $1. Dave when you got a $500 million company. It's $1. It's worth $1. It's $1.
Starting point is 01:56:08 Dave bought it back for $1. So you guys are just... I could buy and sell this company at least 100 times over there. I got enough money in my pocket to buy this company. Yeah. $1 Dave bought it back for $1. For the person he sold it to for what? $400 million?
Starting point is 01:56:22 $550 million? So yeah. That's a lot of cheeseburgers. yeah, that's a lot of cheeseburger. Yeah, that's a lot of cheeseburger. That's what I'm saying. Is this the first interview that you've done in a room where when somebody flushes the toilet, you can hear the pipes come to the water?
Starting point is 01:56:33 Yeah, I feel really comfortable on my go-la. Yeah. Where is the temporary office waiting for the new one? I had one last question. It's a rowback question. Go to rowback.com, promo code take, 20% off. Qzips, polos, hoodies, joggers, shorts, rowback.com promo code take.
Starting point is 01:56:50 Well, it's two questions. One is I told you a story before we started. I kind of want to tell it again, but I'm going to respect you if you don't want me to. You can do it. Okay, this is an all time joke, you know a story, because this is also like, you know, you got kids, you're married now, like you're, you know,
Starting point is 01:57:04 different life, but this is like, just don't go into like two deep, no, no, no, this is also like, you know, you got kids, you're married now, like you're, you know, different life, but this is like- Just don't go into like two demons. No, no, no, no, this is 10 years ago. This is 10 years ago, or eight years ago. We were TBT, Don and McGrath and Matt Walsh, all time, Stoules, I was on the team with them. And they had the tournament in Chicago. You were, it was summer, so you weren't here,
Starting point is 01:57:22 but they were staying at your house in an apartment in the I think it was like What was it river West area? And we were partying at your house and Donnie called up you and was like Jo Kim where should we go tonight? What's what's good? And you said to him just stay exactly where you are and don't worry about a thing and then 30 minutes later about 15 girls showed up to your apartment and they're like, we're here to party.
Starting point is 01:57:47 And it was the most incredible flex I've ever seen. You, I mean, you, it was, it was basically you are Uber Eats. It was incredible. It was fucking insane. It was fucking insane. I've never seen a move like that. Called in Seal Team Satch.
Starting point is 01:58:01 Yeah. Oh, I see. It was like, stay right where you are. I got you. I'm gonna start by answering this question by telling my wife, baby, I love you. It was a long time ago. Yes.
Starting point is 01:58:16 And it wasn't me. It was a promoter. That's the backbone. You don't have the backbone anymore. That's all I got to say. No backbone. Turn in your back and come. You don't have the backbone anymore. That's all I got to say. No bad phones, no bad phones. Turn in your bad, you're tired of the bad phone. I'm gonna be bad.
Starting point is 01:58:29 I'm gonna be the God. That was a long time ago. I'm not that guy anymore. Yeah, but I mean, I just, I mean, that was like the coolest move I've ever seen. So I already loved you, but then I was like, this guy's the coolest guy ever. And he's loyal to his friends.
Starting point is 01:58:43 That's a fact. Well, you know what, I'll take that as a compliment. Yes. And yeah, I'm happy you guys had a good time. But the last last question. So one city wouldn't love the finals is happening. Saturday, I'm not sure when we're going to air this, but I just wanted to say it's incredible what you guys are doing. And we would love to get involved because it really is like sport and competition and sport. I think can solve a lot of the problems that we have today.
Starting point is 01:59:08 Like it's a lot of, if you give kids an outlet to compete and work as a team, I think a lot of things can be fixed that, you know, are problems in our society. And I just think you guys are doing a great job and I'm excited for the future. I appreciate you, bro. I think that, first of all, thanks a lot for having me on the show.
Starting point is 01:59:29 I think it's really dope. And one city, something that, you know, gets me excited when I wake up. You know, I think about all the time. I love the people that I'm working with. This is, this is people that we've been working with for a long time. And so I'm really proud of that.
Starting point is 01:59:49 And the basketball is just a great way to get the kids to come in. And then the real work starts. And we can put in some programs that can really help, you know, kids who need it. So let's just, I think it's just great to just, you know, we can come from different worlds and have conversations and make a difference. And I think that that's what this tournament is all about. Shout out to Kobe Williams, my guy, bringing the guys together, the city has so much to offer and makes us so happy. We might as well just give back and do what we have to do to make sure that this is a better place It's awesome. Yeah, we definitely want to be involved. Yes Yes, and we want you to come to our new office and
Starting point is 02:00:31 Yeah, we'll shoot around you can block us. You can see how many times you can block us. I'm in All right, Jokey. Thanks so much man. Appreciate it respect guys Jokey know is brought to you by 3G. I'm not a drug guy, but I am a 3G guy. I love 3G. I love the fact that it's so convenient. I actually had some 3G last night. I was watching spyops on Netflix, had some 3G before I tuned in.
Starting point is 02:00:57 Very enjoyable experience. Very enjoyable. Love 3G. You don't have to worry about going over to like a shady friend of a friend's house to buy THC or cannabis anymore. You can get it shipped directly to your door and it's legal. It's one of the best things in life. You can get high wherever you want. Whenever you want without paranoia, without having to worry about consuming some sketchy black market booth. You pick up at a gas station. That stuff's the worst. The best way to do this is with 3G.
Starting point is 02:01:23 3G has the highest quality cannabis products. They've got the Delta 9 adibles. They're industry leading Delta 8 products. They've also got Delta 90 vapes.

They're just they're just your roommates. Yeah
Starting point is 02:05:21 So don't worry about it. Hey, fine. What's the worst happens? You end up getting a superpower starting some Marvel movies? Yeah, what would happen if you took a spider and you threw it off your balcony would it die? Probably no probably fly. Yeah, I think it would fly. Yeah, probably fly catch the wind um Kind of makes you a bitch. Yeah, that's fine. I'm a bitch. I mean, there's spiders like you just kill them Yeah, that's fine. I'm a bitch. I'm I mean, there's spiders like you just kill them The other bugs. Yeah, just yeah, they're good I'm gonna get this brand. I'm like what like I legit like again. I understand I'm a bitch I understand that real bad thing. I just like have had the thought like what if I spray them and they fight back no Okay, I get mad yeah, no, they probably are living and they're living a good life. Yeah, and there's a lot of them
Starting point is 02:06:04 how many like all four it's I had I had a realization I was outside of like oh man There's some over here. It's over here. I looked up there all of us that's the worst feeling when you see like one aunt and you're like, huh Let me look at this like there's 300 is never one. Yeah, yeah So you're not a bitch for being scared of spiders cuz I just are not fun. You're bitch from being scared to spray them. That's my problem, those. There's so many spaces that they are that I'm going to spray them. And then they're going to be like, yo, the guys got the spray. They're going to regroup.
Starting point is 02:06:34 Man, okay, I think you're bitch for being afraid of spiders. I'm not afraid of spiders. Necessarily, I just have realized this week, once I had the realization, like the instant reactions, like, I'll get some spray and spring kill them and I've just been kind of like Pushing that off despite the fact that I know they're there You're afraid that they're gonna team up that you're gonna make a very powerful enemy. Yeah, so I maybe I just need to say it You know give myself some confidence to go do it, but you also have a door right you can close the the balcony door and all the spiders Just outside right that's why I've just been letting them live.
Starting point is 02:07:05 But like, I also, it's weird when I go out there, I'm like, damn, there's spiders fucking everywhere. We gotta put you through a test, spider test. Catching things and eating there and so on. Come on, thank you, got this. All right, yeah, this week, I just need to say it. I need to say it, I need to say it out loud to realize. Ah, the fightin' back! Just fight through that. I hope you say it. I need to say it. I need to say it. I'll allow to realize. I'll have to fight him back.
Starting point is 02:07:25 Just fight through that. I hope you die from a spider that'd be hilarious. You know what, saying all this, it would be very funny. Stop chick, that would not be me. And that would be funny if the spiders actually didn't fight back. And then we were like, oh Hank was right.
Starting point is 02:07:37 Did you know that the average person eats eight spiders a year in their sleep? That's what I'm like. That's what I'm like. That's what I'm like. That's what I'm like. I had a bunch. I've been probably gulping on spiders all the time.
Starting point is 02:07:45 They know. They know. They're like, you know, he ate Ricky last week. Yeah. We got to fuck him up. If he brings that spray out, it's on site. That's solely a fake stat, by the way, that everyone just says.
Starting point is 02:07:56 Yeah. It's one guy eats like a million spiders, and then screws it up for everyone. No, I think it's like some dorks scientist that loves eating spiders, and then he came into work. He's like, well, actually, did you know it's not that weird? Yeah, everyone does it. Yeah, it's the house all of us in the room.
Starting point is 02:08:11 Okay, PFT. My Fire Fest of the Week is that I'm a little man. Yeah, you are. That was so mean. Hank put out a video and had funny. Thank you for putting this out on all platforms to make sure that nobody saw it. I missed on the first two.
