It's part of my take, because I need my breath for sports Welcome to part of my take today is Wednesday, August 2nd, Gr week presented by Cors Light, and we are podcasting from a whole, the first ever podcast from a whole, we're in Sandusky, Ohio, inside of a whole, if there's ever a time to subscribe and watch the show on YouTube, it'd be this episode.

Low Man wins, perfect for grit week, right? Yes. No one's ever done a lower podcast than this before. Yes, it'd be this episode. Low Man wins, perfect for Grit Week, right? Yeah. No one's ever done a lower podcast than this before. Yes, it is. We kind of, it's kind of like we're in a coffin simulator. I think we're about six feet underground right now. And it's awesome. Just chilling a hole with the boys. It is, um, low sea level. We're a low sea level.

It is, uh, one of the dumbest things we've ever done for people who are maybe new to the show or maybe bills fans are showing up for this episode We had the idea about a year ago because we had a What was the Monday reading a dude a girlfriend wrote that her boyfriend was just digging a hole in their backyard every weekend And she was concerned. I think he was actually sneaking away to take a hole to dig a hole He had a field somewhere else like Like some guys have a second apartment that they take their ladies to.

He had a second piece of land that he just went out to and dug all the time. Yeah, so we're like, oh, we should dig a hole. And then time passed as it always does. And we got to this moment and we're like, fuck, we have to dig a hole. And we got out here. Mission accomplished.

And we dug a hole. And now we're podcasting for my hole. And Jake ate a worm today. And Jake ate a worm today. And Jake ate a worm today. A lot of worm. Yeah, that video, which we'll be coming out soon. Jake did ask us, he's like, should I kill the worm first before I eat it?

Yeah. He's like, is it gonna cut, what if I poop it out? That one just like my old you meant. Jake, can you please sit back in the hole for us? And I mean, you've been sitting in the hole all day and the noises you make, it's your tune your head, but he's not gonna do it. Just maybe stand for a minute

and then just sit without telling us. Yeah, don't get in front of the cameras. Should we talk about MLB trade deadline? Yeah, I mean, the Metz basically gave up. The Metz tapped out. The Metz, the Metz are quite a funny organization because if I remember correctly we have a lot of bets fans in our lives and when they sign

Justin Verlander they're like it's world series time. Mac shurs are Justin Verlander who could stop us and now they're celebrating August 1st trading Justin Verlander to the Houston Astros back home to the Houston Astros and yeah the bets I guess are back into a rebuild. I don't even know. Big rebuild. So I actually, I saw this article. It came out on the athletic just a couple of minutes ago.

I should write an athletic premium plus article about this, but this is a real article. I'm gonna see that. I'm gonna see that. I'm gonna see that. I'm gonna see that. I'm gonna see that. Mac Scherzer, uh, talking to the front office.

He said, I talked to Billy. Scherzer told the athletic. I was like, okay, are we reloading for 2024? He goes, I talked to Billy, Shurzer told the athletic, I was like, okay, are we reloading for 2024? He goes, no, we're not. Basically, our vision now is for 2025, 2026. Huh. 25 at the earliest, more like 26. And so Max said, so the team is not going to be pursuing free agents this off season or a simple team that compete for World Series next year. He said, no, we're not going to be signing the upper echelon guys. We're going to be on the smaller deals within free agency.

24 is looking to be more of a kind of transitory year. So they're punting on this season, punting on next, maybe trying to get into 25 definitely met all in twice. I remember this. On this podcast with the first report. Metz World Series champions 2026. There we go. They're ready to go. I also have a report from someone inside the Metz organization who contacted me and said Frank tank. No. I'll never see a Metz playoff game won't contend for four, but decade.

Not Frank the tank. Not Frank. Okay. He said four bus. See, yeah, four but decade. Yeah. Yeah. From NJT. Yeah, four but decades. Yeah, from NJT. Well, he's wrong because they're going to be competing within the short time frame of about three and a half years. Yeah. That's way less of a deck. Yeah. A new process.

Yeah, it's a new process. It is, it's quite something because the Mets did, it felt like they had all the hype going in the off season. I don't know, Max, can memes, why don't you come and just tell us what you think because you are a Mets fan. Yeah, I would like to see come. You were a whole little quick memes. Yeah, you were celebrating. There's plenty of room in this hole for you. Come on in. Stand on here comes memes. Should I get in the hole or our top dish washer. Come in this hole, man. It's big enough for you. Yes, alles has had his rock this look all day,

and we've had a very fun time just roasting. What have you been called today? Dish washer. I think I said you look like a Vietnam vet who's seen some shit. Somebody said he looks like a lesbian house painter. Yup. I don't know who said that.

Why the fuck? So Mets so Mets Uncle Stevie after hearing that report I was in the party like sell everybody Just buy everybody the next year like what's point of being a rich guy of can't you buy people? Yep good point But the sound of that doesn't sound too good. No. What about 20, 20, 20, six memes?

That's a long time away. Yeah, that's dumb. You're rich. Yeah, good point. I'll say it right now, 20, 20, 26 is never going to happen. In 20, 20, 26, we'll dig another hole. There's going to be AI baseball. I'm not going to set our reminder for that.

OK, OK, please do, though. Actually, yeah, Jake, remind me to put an off season future on the Met in 20, 20, 26. Off season. February, 2026. Yes, that's when we're all in. But yeah, memes that are better value before the winter meetings. Oh, yeah, yeah.

I should do that. So I should do like right after world series. Yeah, October 31st. November 1st, 2025. OK, I'm in. So memes, it's tough. But at the same time, I think Uncle Stevie's learning the lesson that basically every new owner makes is like they come into the league

and they're like, I'm just, I'm rich. I'm going to buy people. And then it doesn't work out the first time around. Yeah, but they're shining people are a thousand years old. Yeah. I love calling them Uncle Stevie because I'm sure there's some meds fans listening right now that are just cringing at the thought that they actually said that. Yeah. Like being like, Uncle Stevie is gonna buy us everything. Yeah, that's cringey. You can always blame the world baseball classic though. Yes. He did.

And Nate Diaz just firming him the domino. Set it. Yeah. Wait, Nate Diaz? Edwin Diaz. Edwin Diaz. I was like, what? I was like, I'm ready to go on this journey of Nate Diaz taking down the best.

I know what he meant. Eight DS would be a good closer. Yeah, yeah. Well, I mean, he'd be a healthy body. Yeah. Okay, so we'll see in 20s, 26 memes. No, he's gonna boss people. See, this is on Stevie's back.

He's gonna boss me. He's gonna boss me. He's gonna boss me. Yeah, I like that. Get O'Tani. Okay. Even though he's not a free agent. Yeah, yeah, he is.

He is? Yeah, yeah, get him. Okay. Yeah, you got it. Even though it's not for region. Yeah. Yeah, he is. He is. Yeah. Yeah. Get him. Okay. Okay. Yeah, you got it. All right. Hop back on your chopper. We'll see you later. All right. Okay. Actually memes looks. He doesn't even look like a guy who's on a chopper. He looks like a guy who's sitting behind a guy on a chopper holding him softly by the waist. Probably like the filmmaker that's getting taken on tour of Vietnam. Yeah.

All right, other big deals. I saw the O's got Jack Flarety from the Cardinals, so that's good that the Orioles did something. O's are all in. Yep. All in as the Orioles will ever be. All in as the Orioles will ever be. I saw there was, who was it from the Tigers?

Denied a trade to the Dodgers Yeah, don't see very often. It was on one of his ten teams not to be traded to list That seems like a lot of teams to have on your don't trade me to these teams list That'd be funny if you just like hated Gavin Newsom. Yeah, that was why no Colorado Warro Rodriguez. Eduardo Rodriguez. I saw that the white socks were selling a bunch. They're back in a reset after it felt like they were ready to contend. The Cubs bought a little. Yeah, what happened to Mancini?

He got DFA. I think so. I don't know. They're doing stuff with rosters because they did trade for a couple guys. I love Mancini. Yeah. Good guy. Yeah.

Well, Hall famed guy. Better guy than he is. Basically, he's never he has never been DFA as a guy. Yeah, well, Hall fame guy. Better guy than he is. A baseball team. He's never, he has never been DFA'd as a human. Yeah, and the fill he's got a starter. So that's something, Max. Sure. Is baseball talk, baby? Yeah, Michael Oranzen. Just learned, just learned about it right now.

Fixed everything. Fixed everything. Fixed everything. I also heard that the Padres were considering trading one soda. Which would be crazy. Which would be insane to do. Yes.

That's when that trade flees them. I told you the day it happened, did I not say flees? Yes, you did. I also learned today, fun fact, Rich Hill is still in Major League Baseball. What? That was crazy to me. Oh, money mountain. Yeah, he's been around forever.

He's going to be playing for, he's the new Jamie Moore. So Rich Hill got traded. It's his 13th team. Yeah. How old is he? The league. He's got to be like 38. He has to be. He's been everywhere. He'll be a great for the what's it? The trivia thing that they play. Macular grid. Yeah, 43 years old. 43. Holy shit. From Milton. Matt. Morning. Milton. He is the new Jamie more 43 is insane Wow kids grow up and be a

Like a decent major league baseball. He's been on four teams last three years What about your Yankees Billy your Yankees making some big moves and doing talking to shovel Billy and do shit Talking to shovel They got um, they yeah right handed reliever from the white socks. Canyon Middleton. Yeah, but exactly. An hour ago, since July 1st, 29 teams have made a trade. Since July 1st, the Yankees is the only one who's,

ones who didn't. Okay, but now he's been corrected. Yep, that has been corrected. All right, Jake, sit down. You're making me uncomfortable. He's not gonna make it. It's not real. I can't believe I'm sitting on the phone.

I'm Jake is sat down. He's been making a noise like, oh, he. I can't believe it. I'm Jake is sat down. He's been making a noise. Oh! He did one earlier that was like, Oh! He sounds like toad. Oh!

You guys just start filming me when I'm about to sit. I know. Yeah. You've got one naturally. Great series. That's your job, Shane. Shane, you're on Jake's sitcom. Yes.

All right, what else do we have? The US women's team sucks. Yeah, so we kind of do suck. We tied Portugal. Unacceptable. Fun fact, they're the only country outside of South America that speaks Brazilian. So I guess they're probably pretty good at soccer.

But the US women's team does not look at it all. I did wake up. I set an alarm for 3.10 AM. Psycho. I opened my eyes, put the game on, and then I fell asleep for then probably two minutes, and I'm so glad I fell asleep because there was no scoring.

Yeah. It sucked, and then our only good player got a yellow card, Rosalvelle. Yep. So she's not gonna be able to play in the next game. And we were saying in the RV earlier that like, you know what's going bad for women's soccer when we're starting to get like old man takes on them because they were celebrating after it disgusted. It disgusted me too.

I, okay, counterpoint. I think it's good for women's soccer that we're firing off these old man takes about their sport, not being like, oh, boring women's soccer. It's like, no, you shouldn't be celebrating like that after you tie Portugal zero, zero. You only won one game against Vietnam. Yep. Who you barely even beat by three goals yeah so act listen you haven't one shit yet they're entitled they are they are babies they are babies yeah and we mean that as as a son of respect to women's sports we expect more i do expect more they're being criticized the way i criticize when the u.s. men's

team everyone says that this is the golden generation they don't make the fucking tournament they advance though yeah women yeah but we do you can't understand what women's team if they win the world is the golden generation they don't make the fucking tournament advance though uh... women you can't understand it when his team if they were up if they would work up if they had any pride jigsaw if they had any pride they would they would rescind their advancement if they were to be too tight when the world cup i will be the first to say

congratulations to me for lighting a fire under their big asses correct and get their shit together and winning the World Cup. If I were on that, I expect from them. If I were on that team, I'd rescind my invitation to advance. Yeah. As we know, any dignity whatsoever,

they need to get hope solo back in that locker room. Just smack some people around. Yes. They need a little bit of cycle. They need more dog on that team. Yeah. Yeah. So I'm disappointed.

Count me in the disappointed camp for the US women's national team. And their jersey stink. Do they? Yeah, they're not good. They're better than men's jersey, so they still stink. All right, other things. I mean, it's just camp season. Nathaniel Hackett said Sean Peyton broke the code.

Broke the code. Yeah, broke the code. I mean, John Marant. Yeah. So that's a big problem. Mike Tomman says he hopes that games in prime time so he can watch it. I love that.

He's, Mike Tomman is the best. He's just speaking for all of us. Yeah, they better put in prime time. I've heard that Jets fans are panicking about the fact that they're going to have to stay up late to watch prime time games. A lot of pressure. I mean, you're under the spotlight this year, Billy.

Who's saying that? He asked for this, Billy. You used to be able to forget about the Jets games with the lot of pressure. I mean, you're under the spotlight this year, Billy. Who's saying that? Yes, for this Billy. You used to be able to like forget about the Jets games with the prime time game. Hopefully we won't have to. Mm hmm. October 8th, 425 Eastern times. That's a kind of time for the animal game. Yeah. They could have the camp flex it.

That I think it's too early. We also have just camp highlights that are very funny. George Pickens made the greatest catch of all time today. Everyone freaked out. B. John Robinson is the greatest catch of all time today. Everyone freaked out. B. John Robinson is the greatest catch of all time of today. Of today of today. B. John Robinson continues to light it up by beating linebackers and one-on-one drills.

So sick. So funny when they're like, uncorparable. Look at B. John guy, I'm sure he's gonna be good because he was fucking awesome in college. He's got a church. But it is very funny to see him do a juke move on a one-on-one drill,

where the linebacker's just standing in space. Like I would hope that the running back would win that drill a hundred times out of a hundred. I saw a sick pass from Jordan Love today through it about 45 yards in the air on a dot against no pass rush whatsoever, but you can just tell like that guy's special. Yeah, it's been lighting it up.

Yeah, that guy's, that guy's through an intersection. That's the nicest interception I've ever seen in my life. Tray Lance has a, Tray Lance might get cut. Tray Lance over through his, I think his coach, I like 20 yards above his head. And they, like all reports say that Sam Darnold and is Brock pretty practicing?

I think it is. So they're getting more reps in him that's a problem it is a problem so that that doesn't look good there uh... i saw brice young today was was being interviewed he's look good in camp apparently uh... yeah there were a lot of people a lot of i'm a straud boy there are a lot of people out there who are in brice's that were coming at me and saying like

brice is not worse than strapped i think strapped about a rookie year that's all i'm saying. But, Bryce had an interview today where he said that he worked as a door dash delivery guy when he was in college where he would just pick up stuff and then drop them off at door stops, not like opening the door just like ring the doorbell and go back to the car. Okay.

I have a couple questions about that. Number one, is that not against the NCAA rules to have have a job in college well not anymore in twenty twenty was it uh maybe it might have been so he might have admitted to a to a serious violation on that one and then to the way that he described it was so kind of shady where he's like yeah you know I would just drop it off ring the doorbell go back in my car I feel like he was just dropping bags off for Will Anderson. That's COVID though.

No contact. I think it's more likely that Nick Sabin was like, your delivery route is going. It's just dropping facts right now. Going from Wells Fargo, dropping a bag off at Will Anderson's house, ringing the doorbell and going back to your car. Don't look inside the bag.

That's what I think. Other way, I just move my foot. That's a good dirt. Yeah. That's what we're dealing with in the bottom of the horror of our audio guys cracking up right now. Okay, anything else for you hot sea cool throne and then we got two awesome interviews in amount rush more. Yep, anything else? All right, let's go. Hot sea cool throne brought to you by our friends at Morgan and Morgan. We've talked about them before the Morgan and Morgan guys are the best in the world.

when you get injured and you need representation. Okay, hot sea cool throne, Hank. Hoss is Lizzo. Oh, what happened? Uh oh. She's getting sued. For what? She was an answer man.

Not letting her people eat. Nope. She made, she actually was forcing her backup dancers to eat. Problem was, it was bananas out of sex workers with giants. Oh, is that a crime? A parent, well she's getting sued. Would you sue us for that? If we, because there's been a point of contention

this whole week that we've been starving you. So what if you started? Again, that's what you're saying. We got an accent. We've been starving you. You got an accent. You've been starving me. I have not.

I bought you $150 worth of breakfast. Yeah, we settled that today. Last week was a little tough. Monday was a little tough. But we've moved past that. What if I said to you tomorrow morning, hey, Hank, I have your breakfast. It's a banana out of PFT's asshole.

I would probably talk to that. I'd probably file a claim with Morgan and Morgan. OK. OK. So also just to recap your Hank, when you say it started last week that you've been starved out, you ate lunch at 1 o'clock, and then you started to complain at 3.30 that you've only eaten one meal.

That's not the last thing very true. You said I've only eaten one meal today at three o'clock, which is almost 30. Hey, you know what I had today? You were driving me as far away from the house as you could and then you took me out of the car. I ate two scoops of ice cream and a waffle cone. That was my lunch. Same. And I'm showing you again. That's the problem. You're two scoops of ice cream and a waffle cone. That was my lunch. Same.

And I'm showing you again. That's the problem. You're forcing your choices on others. Okay. I think much like Lizzo. Yeah. Literally. You stop smoking weed and then you just don't get, you've, you've got a little bit.

Yeah, you've been outside of your own head. Again, I think, I think, I think I think I think, I think, again, asking for breakfast, that's a crime put me in, put me in the gulag. It's 30 years old. You can get breakfast on your own. So we'll back to Liza. She's getting sutured on the hot seat. So it was bananas out of a China?

In Amsterdam, I guess that's probably where she was. I got to learn Amsterdam, anything goes. International law. There's a place called, I think it's called the banana room. Or I heard this story from Glynnie Balls and fights. Okay. When they went there with Bert Kreischer. Okay.

I think fights told me actually. So KFC Radio went over there and they took him to the banana room and this is what happens at the banana room. So it's kind of when you go into the banana room, not defending Lizzo here, but when you do go in the banana room, weird shit goes down. The first question you should ask

when somebody takes you a place called the banana room is, oh, why is it called the banana room? Oh, I would say, do they have snacks? They do. Okay, can I please have some? Yeah. Maybe she won't you know, maybe she'll get proven innocent. Okay, I think she's got a someone of a clan But yeah, I don't think so probably not that probably doesn't fly especially subordinates. Yeah, yeah That's like the part that yeah, because we've made you do that So when I saw this story come out I thought to myself anything I thought to myself a

You can have a banana out of his out of PFT's asshole anytime you want. So along the lines of what you're saying right now, Big Cat, we've said and done a number of things that would probably open us up to litigation from Hank. If he ever decided to. But we have it like what is a Canary in a coal mine? Pairty law. If the Canary dies, you know that there's a gas leak.

Yeah. If Jake Marsh doesn't sue us, we're good. Yeah. He's our Canary in a coal mine Because he would be the one So that's binding. He just said I will never see you guys Oh, I hope you want to plan a split tonight, buddy You like nuts on them are

Yeah, Jake is our canary in a coal mine though. Yeah, he if he does not file an HR claim No one else will yeah, that's actually great for immunity because Billy's definitely gonna file a lawsuit at some point. Yeah, oh, for sure. We're gonna have to have him steal all the time. We're just gonna kill Billy. Yeah, you know, what do you think this whole sport?

Yeah. Yeah, you know, what do you think this whole sport? Yeah, you know, he just realized, oh shit, why are we building a whole location? We're in the middle of a cornfield in a giant hole. You ever seen the end of Cassino? Yes. It's the perfect crime, too, because we'd be like,

why would we put billion a hole that we podcasted from? Yeah. That's stupid. Link Wink. He just fell in. Yeah. All right. You're cool, Thronehank?

My cool Throne is the MVP. Yes. Stakes has got a lot higher for the MVP, Nickelodeon, Playoff game. It was just a wild card game last couple years now they're doing a super bowl alternate broadcast so i they did kind of rig the polls they did couldn't they they they they

abl proofed it yeah so i hope they open it up again but yeah they're doing alternate super bowl broadcast this year this year jake yeah they did jake is no eagle on. Tell no eagle. Tell no eagle to stop the steel. What they did to democracy in America last time

is unforgivable. We couldn't vote for the quarterback of the losing team. If they use that to our, that's our MVP. We'll make a, we'll make a sting. I think yeah, the first year was the hashtag. So you guys could do your thing, but now they put it to the Nickelodeon website, right?

No, no, no, no, vote. No, but they only let you choose certain people this year. I thought it was hashtag like Mitch Frem, MVP the first time. No, I just came up with that hashtag as we were watching it, trying to get other people to do it. We spam the vote. And then send people to the website, but no, it sounds like you're standing up for your boy. I mean, of course. Well, he rigged the election.

It's not his fault. Oh, it is. It's not his fault. It is. It is. His fault. I'm going to indict him. All decisions are made by the play by play guys. Of course. That is a fact. Yes. I'll tell you what, if we win this MVP shot of a lifetime. Yeah. You guys see the shot of a lifetime viral golf shot? No, it was like this guy from a bunker. Really? Yeah. Is it actual shot of a lifetime? I would say shot of a lifetime from a bunker goes to the H-man. That's true. That's a fact. Yeah. He killed Hiller. Yeah. He did. He did something good for everyone. Yeah. Okay. Oh, that was your cool turn. That was my cool turn.

Okay. Okay. Okay. Good job, Hank. Good job, Hank. Great job, Hank. We know you need to be, you know, positive reinforcement because you're so good. Uh, my, why did you stop smoking? Yeah. I watched you. You never really told me that. You just sucked. I don't know. I just ran out. It was like I'm done. It's interesting because we go in Illinois. Yeah. I don't know. I just turned 30 and older. I was just like, fuck it. I mean, like, if you had a jar, and now I probably smoke it, I'm just not buying it for myself. Okay. So we just have to buy you wheat. No, okay, that's fine, deal.

I think I actually know why Hank's grumpy, and it is, it's my hot sea. I know why he stopped smoking, it's weed, weed's on my hot sea. There's something called a hop latent viroid going around, and it basically nerfs potent weed. So all the big potent weed, everyone's,

we've talked about in the show before, weed has gotten too strong. That might be a boomer take on our part. When we were growing up, weed was still pretty strong, but not this strong. So they've made it, even less strong. So the nerfing of the weed is going around right now. There's like a virus or a fungus

that's affecting like 90% of marijuana plants in the country. We're gonna wildcat. What? Oh shit! We saw it earlier, Pete. Oh, it's getting this cat in the hole. Oh no. Let's get this cat in the hole.

Sorry, PFT, but there's a cat right here. We're gonna get this cat in the hole. I'm allergic. Oh. You're scary. You're scary. Come here, kitty. Come here, kitty. Come here, kitty.

Oh, let's get this cat. Oh, yeah. You're allergic to pussy chick? Back on. Okay. You dog you. Okay, go ahead, back to the nerfed weed. So weed is not strong anymore. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah it is right now. So you can still smoke it and do stuff. So that means we have to buy double the weed. We have to buy twice as much weed for. Why are you trying to enable me? Why can't you just support me? I support you.

I think this is like life finds a way. Yeah. Like the universe knows weeds getting too strong. God was like, okay, let me just sprinkle some of this virus out there. Yeah. A great salt bay. Agreed. My cool throne is Northwestern.

The University of Northwestern because the University of Northwestern, because they hired former attorney general, Loretta Lynch, to lead an investigation into all the hazing practices and the culture at Northwestern football, and also at the same time they had a four-star quarterback commit that just switches commitment to Oklahoma. Oh. So, but my cool throne is that I actually think that this is good as a fan of Northwestern Mm-hmm. I think it's good for the program as a true fan of the football team on the board I am yeah

Basically I'm on the board and as a fan of Northwestern a real fan of the school the institution not just the football team I think they should be given the death penalty. I think that as as Northwestern goes were more than a football team were as Northwestern goes, we're more than a football team. We're an institution that develops and builds young minds and teaches them to be ethical. And we can't do that with this sort of football team. So listen, if you're an alumni out there who's in sports media, if you're a journalist and you're saying anything besides death penalty

to Northwestern, you're also agreeing with the fact of everything that they did to get to this point. You're endorsing it. Not me. Jake, I sense a little disdain when you said that about PFT there. Are you, I mean, there's a journalism rivalry. Right. I know.

He has a more prestigious degree than you. Right. Right. Also, our journalism school, you forget was unaccredited. So we lost our accreditation. Discraticated. Yeah. Just numbers never lie.

Numbers never lie accreditation. Never lots. Yeah. That's true. So, uh never lie. Accreditation never lies. Yeah, that's true. So, yeah, I think Northwestern, as a fan, should have the football team to span in death penalty. Yes, that's the only way out of this. Agreed.

Agreed. All right, my hot seat is the Pac-12. Pac-12 feels like they are teetering at this moment. It could even be announced after this, but Arizona, Arizona, state and Utah are being rumored to go to the big 12. The Pac-12 is also trying to get them to stay by putting the Pac-12 on Apple TV. CW?

Yes, subscription model, which I guess would be better than the Pac-12 channel that I never was able to finally get. It's always channel number like 671. Yeah, so, but the Pac-12 feels like they're in dire straits. I've also heard rumors. It's it is true What great band great band. Yeah, Mark. No, you know him. No, it's a callback. Yeah, when Hanks and dire straits great Would you say great song? Yeah, great song

It is I've also heard rumors that Washington and Oregon to the big 10 and possibly Florida state in Clemson as well So who's gonna be in the pack 12? I don't I don't think I don't think Clemson should go to the big 10 and possibly Florida state and Clemson as well. So who's going to be in the pack 12? I don't I don't think I don't think I'm going to go to the SEC if they're going to move hands off Jake. Okay. I want them. Okay. I'm thinking Geographically. Yeah. Okay. Well UCLA and USC don't make any sense. Geographically. Geographics do not matter in college football anymore. We're headed for the big big two maybe big three maybe big 12 that'd be awesome if the big 12 just like We're we're sticking the ashes and became one of the big three Well, it's funny because like all these teams leading the pack 12 This is now when kids aga is going to go to the pack 12. Yeah, look at us. We're in a major conference

I don't know why we don't just do we should do NFL model and just have Divisions yeah, and just have conferences the. The big 10 and the SEC or the conferences, the McVeigh divisions. You just kind of created college football as it is right now. Well, they'd have to clean it up a little. I'm saying there's only two conferences. So we're headed that way.

We're not there yet. Two conferences, divisions within the conferences. Maybe 32 teams total. Correct. And they play in divisions of four. Right, got it. Yes, it's gonna work. I just want to get to the final ending of this. I'm just sick of four. Right. Got it. Yes. It's going to work. I just want to get to the final ending of this.

I'm just sick of it. Yeah. Um, and then my cool throne is Lane Kiffin's girlfriend. It was National Girlfriend Day. So he posted her and she's attractive. Yeah. She is. Congrats. That's an unbalkylus. That's fine. That's fine. Well, he posted it.

I didn't even know there was National Girlfriend Day. It must be a picture of her. I saw it. She's nice. She looks, she looks nice. She looks smart. She looks like very intelligent. They look happy. National Girlfriend Day, see? Yeah, I like that he's got the high neck sweatshirt.

Yeah, he looks like he's just living his best life with National Girlfriend Day. Big shout out. They got a day for everything. National Hank eats a banana out of PFT's ass days tomorrow. I'm excited. Hank, how much would it cost? Good question.

I wanna know your number. Everyone's got a place. Wait, is the peel on before or after? Oh, how far in your asshole is it? It would be half and half out. Wait, wait, but dude, the peel, that's your grand cash? That's grand?

That's doable. That's doable. But get the peel, you get the grand cash. Oh, grand. That's doable. That's doable. But get the peel on before. Wait, how much am I getting out of this? I have to stick man up my ass. You're allowed to post it. Okay, yeah, I post only pants. Yeah.

Okay, Billy, your hot sequel's wrong. My hot sequel is Hitman, a 28 year old hired Hitman to kill his lover's husband who was a former Auburn football player and it went through. I've been hearing a lot of hitman plots lately. Some guy applied to be a hitman. I'm not hearing any positive hitman stories. I think it's a profession that's going out of business.

Yeah, every time I hear a story about a hitman, it's just straight up. Like this hitman was like secretly recording the person that asked them to kill somebody If you ask your friend like do you know hitman and they introduce to somebody that guys wear a wire? Yes, facts somebody other Woody Harrel's is that was a hit man. Yeah, he's a JFK and he killed a judge Like an accomplished hit man. Yeah, yeah, well, you can just apply to be a hit man I'm a hit man. It's right next to barstool GM's It's called it's called LinkedIn, but it's spelled like Lincoln. I think Hitman for hire.com was the website that got him. Oh, that's pretty under the radar.

Yeah. It actually might be a better thing to like pretend to be a hitman and con people. Like Jake's been doing this whole time. Jake, take out your gun. Now, kill Billy. Big guy admitted that I'm not a rat because I ate wings. Yeah, you did, you ate wings. You show it's your annual, hey guys, I can do this.

Jake also put away quite a bit of wings, more than I thought that you would. Hey, this is my first time this week. You're a great eater. Yeah, I can eat. Yeah. $19.08 at Bolero. Yeah, that's true. That's a fact

And your cool turn my cool throne is the jets shout out Steven Chey he did a police work not too much But air Rogers is not going well. How much is too much police work the jets? That's a good second chase. No, no, no, no, look Sounds like you know, but I I've been following this but Steven Chey wrote a blog and I respect the bloggers Okay, uh air Rogers i've been following this but steven chay wrote a blog and i respect the bloggers okay uh... and rogers took a thirty five million dollar pay cut right davonte atoms right visit the jets recently

did he he did and rogers he's on his own track is the raiders right right but but we mean that it's a the jets facility went to new york i think yes he went to the jets facility not the facility but that's not visiting that he went to New York City to see yes, yes, okay, okay So there's no other reason why he would go to New York City. There's probably a couple he didn't visit the Jets He visited New York City. Okay, that's what we call new Jersey. Okay, we don't know that but if you visit the Jets

That would be like very illegal in tampering law so quote is a very very serious that would break the code Yes, quote- This is a very, very serious one. That would break the code. Yes. Quote from Aaron Rodgers. You probably agree with this this year compared to like 2005, the amount of transactions that happened now with guys getting cut in the amount of trades way more than before. Big names move at the trade deadline now.

I wanted to make sure that if somebody valuable came available that we'd be able to get him, I'm very happy with the contract. I feel great about it on his contract. So, hypothetically at the trade deadline something were to happen like we have super teams now named bomb miller obj went to the rams before they want to super rule okay so i actually don't disagree with the

so it's a big sense i i do think that things are going to go sideways for the raiders pretty quickly this year davonte atoms probably not going to be happy playing for jim Jimmy Garoppolo and what figures to be a low wind season for Las Vegas. So it would make sense that he would be disgruntled halfway through the season and wanna leave.

So I, listen, I'll give all the credit to Steven Shea for his not too much police work and for you for bringing up on the show. I think that it's a good possibility that this happens. Yeah, the problem for the Jets would be that they're, are they running out of picks? How many they send to it for Aaron Rodgers? Couple, yeah, a few.

But I mean, you'd have to get, it doesn't really matter, that's a problem you just deal with later. Can you do cash in the NFL? Like they do in baseball, cash considerations could, could the Woody Johnson, could he send some money to Mark Davis? Because Mark Davis needs some cash.

Yeah, why not? That would be good. Yeah, it just float them some. Yeah, maybe a P.F. Chang's gift card. Yeah, this P.F. Chang's gift card is worth $500,000 black card Like Mark Davis like that's two months Okay, Jake my hot seats Kendrick Perkins. You got ejected at a a you tournament. Oh Bad book what yelling at the refs something like that. I don't okay. I almost respect that It's Kendrick Perkins. He got ejected at a AAU tournament. Uh oh, bad luck. What, yelling at the refs? Something like that.

I don't know. I almost respect that. I don't know what the refs did. Adjected is different. Adjected is a bad luck. It's not a terrible luck because a fight is what's a really bad luck. Yeah, it's fair.

Legarrad Blunt is a bad luck. Right. My dad's been kicked out of a couple. Don't wait. So So like I never would have guessed that. It's not that bad. Sometimes you go too hard for your son. I do like the rule though when you get kicked out of a little league game for yelling at an umpire, you have to go to umpire school and then umpire a game yourself. Yeah. Pottersmith fits the crime. Yep. Absolutely. Um, my cool throwing is Doris Burke. Yes. She's getting promoted to the 18 alongside Mike

Brin and newcomer in the booth Doc Rivers. I like how you just presented that. Yeah. Well, I think he has prior broadcasts. He does, but is he gonna be horse all the 18? What? Is he gonna be horse all the time? I don't know, but Mark Jackson I think everyone was shocked that he got removed as well from the 18. I have a take that probably people will disagree with. I love Jeff and Gandhi. I like that booth. Mark Jackson, kind of a goofball, but like you need that in broadcasting. I do think there was a moment where it was like, they've been doing this for too long because all they do is complain. Yeah. You know what I mean? But the cat's about to come in.

And who? Whoa. What's the cat's name? Blake. And Mark Jackson. You know what I mean? No, do you guys, like, I think they're great. I always just got a little bit grumpy because they've been doing it for so long. But they weren't even really grumpy about the wrong things.

I've known myself agreeing with them about like the flagrant fouls. Of course. Of course. But they're also like when you're watching a game, you don't want to hear just constant complaint. Yeah, yeah. I always lean more towards, I will tolerate a shitty booth if they're friends and they get

along, and they seem to be having a good time. Yeah, I don't, I like that. I like listening to buddies just talk watching sports. I weirdly think that like Mark Jackson and Jeff and Gunny, if they take a year off, then come back, I'd be like, yes, I'm all the way back in. Yeah, you know, just a reset year. I'm going to miss hearing Mark Jackson, just say, Jeff and Gunnyee, if they take a year off, then come back, I'd be like, yes, I'm all the way back in. Yeah, just a reset year. I'm gonna miss hearing Mark Jackson just say, Jeff and GunDee all the time.

Remember when he tried to fuck LeBron's wife? Yeah. With all due respect. With all due respect. I'm not that out of the bar. I'm not that out of the bar. Mike Breene was stunned and sad about the firings of Jackson and Van GunDee.

I mean, he probably got a pay raise too, all right. Breene? Yeah. I don't know. He's great though. One of the one of the first. George Burke is good too. That's the other great.

That's the other great. Boris deserves it. Mike Breene, more big than anything. You don't like Doris? She's a hater. Celtic's hater. Oh, really? Yeah.

Who does she, she didn't say a word during game seven. Doris isn't when Jason Tatum was going off and beat the sixers. She was just dead song. I love that. You hang. No, I, I, I generally love and beat the sixers, she was just dead silence. I love that. You hate me. No, I generally love that. Maybe she was, maybe she wasn't announcing. Maybe she was literally on the floor in amazement.

What's the point of being a sports fan if you can't get pissed at the announcers? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I'm not wrong. I'll show you. There's documented proof. Oh, you have a tape.

Yeah. Okay. I wonder about your guy Doc. I'm going right to the 18. of doc great coach sad, you know Players that he hadn't fill you come to an a form, but championship coach He has won a championship. Yeah, that is a fact max. What are your thoughts on doc? I want to hang to shut up Okay, well, let's get to the interviews. Let's do some interviews Uh, the interview with Josh Allen is brought to

Okay we now welcome on our best friend multiple time recurring guest. It is Josh Allen quarterback of the Buffalo Bills and because it's grit week the first question is sponsored by Bick Easy Rinse Razors. You can see my face right now. I shaved last night with Bik Easy Rinse Raysers. Say goodbye to clogger. This is a new anti clogged tech.

Use code 20 grit for 20% off on Amazon. 20 grit for 20% off on Amazon. So the first question, of course, is what is grit to you, Josh Allen? Grit is using the dorm bathrooms and being okay with it. Yeah. My our good friend over here is not okay with using a dorm. Well, no, I'm just saying I was telling Josh before we started recording. I could live in a dorm room. I could be here for two weeks. That's great. The dorm bathrooms might be an issue for me. Yeah. That's

not good enough. It's not here. You're in. It's actually like a lot of teams don't do this anymore. Go to a dorm, go to a college campus. What's it like being in it back in a dorm with the boys? It's telling him it's like grit week for you guys. I know that. It's like grit two and a half weeks for us. That's true. We're saying. I love it. I do. I honestly love being in the dorms. You get to control your own little AC. I put mine down like 58 degrees. Yes. You walk outside like you spend every waking moment with the with the boys. Yeah. It's just having a good time talking about football, life, getting to know each other a little bit better and playing video games with

each other and staying out. I love it. You decorate your dorm room. Yeah. Postures up there. Marley poster. I should get a PMP. Yeah. Yeah. Pink Floyd ass poster. Yeah, all of them. Boom Doc states Scarface poster. We get all of them. The blue she got you kissing. Yeah, the kiss. Yeah, it's strong guys. I don't know. It's strong guys. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you just put it all up in the dorm. So it's great to see you. It's great to have you back on. I actually also have to start with. I saw a tweet that you got hit really hard and can't practice like a minute ago.

I did. And that the whole place went silent for about 10 seconds. Are you okay? I'm fine. Do we need to do something to take this person out whoever hit you? No, I love Taren.

It was an accident. I was an accident. It was kind of a little quarterback throwback pass. It was waiting for the ball and thawing through the ball. Terran comes in flying in like a bat out of hell and got a nice little Charlie horse, but more importantly, I was on the ground. I just got the win knocked out of me.

So, that's scary. The win knocked out of you is one of the scariest things that you've been experiencing. Because when you get the win knocked out of you, it looks like the way you act is a significant injury. Yeah, yeah, even though you'll be fine in 10 seconds. Yeah, okay, it looks like you're gonna die. Yeah, it feels like you're gonna die.

Yeah, you're on the ground just like gasping for you. You said it was an accident. Yeah, sounds like hard-knosed defense. Yeah, it's playing some gritty defense. You were truly gritty. We can go out each other and say who's gritty, who's not, you would say, if you see your gritty.

Yeah, you want to beat your ass? No, the gritty. Oh, the gritty. You want me gritty? Yeah, you want to be trash? No, the gritty. Oh the gritty. I'm not gonna do it for you, but we got a okay. Oh, oh Okay, sit down wait so if you're so gritty. Yeah, take the fucking red Jersey. Yeah, you feel like a pussy for wearing that Yeah, I know it could touch you. I've gone out there actually three times without a red jersey. Really? And just played, I played a de-end for you. Just nobody knew it.

Who's that guy? What about the visor? Are we rocking the visor? I don't know. I always do like the different colored visor for camp and practice sometimes. I did a clear visor in college for a little bit. Mm-hmm. I don't know. No visor. clear visor in college for a little bit.

I don't know. No visor. You don't like visor? Yeah, when a super bowl. No super bowl quarterback is every one of visor. Does him a home's a visor? No, I don't think so. We can fact check that.

I'm pretty sure he does. He does, we just don't say anything. We'll delete this. Yeah, yeah. I thought he did at one point, because he was an Oakley guy. Not when he won the super bowl. Yeah, hold up.

Yeah, we'll fact check it. did at one point because he was an Oakley guy. Not when he won the Super Bowl. Yeah. Hold up. Yeah, we'll fact check it. Your coach has the Lombardi trophy on a big banner in the facility. Are you thinking that maybe that's a little forward? Is that too much? That's good to visualize. OK. That's good to see it.

Do you go one step further and maybe make a reservation for the Super Bowl? It's just be like, this is my goal. I'm making the reservation right now. Reservation for the Super Bowl. It's just be like, this is my goal. I'm making the reservation right now. Reservation for the Super Bowl for Vegas. For what though? You're gonna hold a reservation. For the television. Well, the team does that for us.

It's like the scene from Steinfeld. What's it called? The reservation where he's like, you had a hold. Do you watch Steinfeld? Do you fan a Steinfeld? I don't. Am I saying that right? Steinfeld. Steinfeld.

Oh, are you a fan of Steinfeld? I don't know what Steinf I saying that right? Sign felt, sign felt. Sign felt. You're saying sign felt. Are you a fan of a sign felt? I don't know what a sign felt is. Like the show? Yeah, the show. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. You should buy a big fan.

You should buy a ticket to a show in Las Vegas that weekend and be like, okay, I've already got my tickets. Yeah, but I don't want to go to show for getting prepared for the Super Bowl. I think it's just disrespectful that you and your coach are saying we'd like to win the Super Bowl this year. That seems kind of messed up. I didn't know how I was gonna work that in.

Did I do a good job? You did a good job. Thanks. I was like, how's the fuck am I gonna bring up Seinfeld and I'd say Seinfeld. I did it. I've been reading the news. Have you been reading the news about yourself?

Which, no. There was a headline and it was just, Josh Allen makes out with his girlfriend on vacation That's awesome that somebody writes article about you making out with your girlfriend the fact that anybody cares about that Yeah, still blows my mind. You look good in shorts. I saw the pictures What they were on a boat seriously? Yeah. That's fucked up. Does that bother? Because like, it's, it's, I saw it and I just like, I just felt like this, this gross feeling. Yeah, then vision or private security, no privacy was just like,

what is wrong with you? You gotta get back to Buffalo. The people of Buffalo will protect you. Yeah, yeah, that's the difference. Well, we're back. Yeah, that's why we're, not because of your job, but yeah, that's why we're back. You could have worse headlines written about you though than like makes out with girlfriend. Yeah, that's why we're not because of your job, but yeah, that's why we're back. You could have worse headlines written about you though

than like makes out with girlfriend. Yeah, that's true. That's true. That's not a bad one, that's not a pretty good one. All right, so how are we feeling physically? Because I think that you're so tough, you were more injured last year than you let on. And now you're fully backed, you feel good?

We're back. Okay, because is that true? Like you were more banged up, like as the season went along, especially after the elbow. Yeah, I mean, there was probably three or four weeks where I didn't practice at all. I just would get ready for game day.

Like I was just staying out there and getting mental reps, but I wouldn't throw until game day. Right. So that takes a toll on you, whether you believe it or not, like getting those repetitions in practice It helps out a lot and um

There's no excuses though. We gotta go out there and we we ball I like that. Are you worried all about the madden cover? No not at all. Okay. I think that got I think that could got debunked right it did it good It's one of those things that whenever it's bad it becomes a big story then there's a bunch of years where it's fine Yeah, yeah. So you're not worried. No. What happened when they approached you

and you're just like, fuck, this is like the coolest thing ever. Yeah, yeah, I mean, they gave my agent a cons that we want him to be on the cover and got a Zoom call with them and they had like this video and this whole presentation and the video was like really for a concert and I was like, okay. Yeah, yeah.

Yeah, because I mean, I grew up playing. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, because I grew up playing. Yeah, right. That's how I learned the rules. That's how I like the basic coverages of defense and basic, you know, offensive concepts. And as a kid, I played with my brother and my dad. And I knew every single rule. So like when I played like Peewee and Junior Varsity football,

like I was so a far ahead of the curve because I knew what was supposed to be going on. Yeah. Do you look at the ratings and you're like, man, they really bowed me on like pass blocking I always love it when they have like They try like strength like I should be one of the if not the strongest like I'm so so strong. Yeah, but they have me a little weaker Yeah, has your arm gotten stronger since you've been in the NFL?

No, I think it's stayed pretty pretty constant. Yeah, okay. When last time you just you ripped a ball and you're like, let's see how far this will go. It's been a long time. Yeah. Did you never actually threw it out of the stadium, right? No, I tried it one time.

Yeah, are you going to try it again this year? Maybe. We'll see. Okay. Depends on which way the winds drift. Yeah, yeah. If I got a heavy wind behind me, I might just chuck one up there.

Yeah, but it's a $17,000 fine every time I do it. Oh, but still, if you throw a football out of the stadium, I'll cover your fine. Yeah, well, no, you know what? We'll take it out of our cut. The 15, the 15, no, no, no, the 15 million you all. Oh, yeah. We'll take it out of the side. I owe you.

Okay. We'll just take it from the I owe you. Yeah, that's fine. Yeah. Pay it down. Yeah. I do have some I owe you back there for you guys. Just a,. I would like to say you can take my cut of the 15 million and You can use it and distribute it to your running backs. How about that?

Yeah Seven half million that's chump change So wait when did you sign the the big deal three year ago? After year two years ago? Two years ago. Two years ago. Two years ago? Has your head... Was it two years ago already?

Have you bought anything like crazy? Defined crazy. Golf simulator? I got a golf simulator, but... Is it crazy? Did I buy it though? Oh, okay, that's smart. See now you're using your saving that up so you can pay us.

Yeah, exactly. See, I actually spent what smart. See now you're using your saving that up so you can pay us. Yeah So I actually spent what I was gonna give you guys So that's why I have the IOUs so once that gets paid off I can start reimbursing you about jet skis No jet skis no boats Tractor no well, so there was my dad texted me the other day we I had won a fire bought eagle sweatshirt which my high school and Buffalo and bills mafia bought like a hundred thousand dollars worth and it was donated straight to the high school my dad texted me They're buying an AI

Robot to paint the fields That's pretty cool. Yeah, I was my dad's's like, hey, they need your permission to buy this. And I was like, that's what they want to buy. Yeah, go ahead. Yeah, that's a nice. So it just goes out there like on wheels and. Yeah, it's got like this like, kind of like command center.

You press the button and it goes and it paints some straight lines. And then you can input the logo in the middle of the field and it'll go and do the entire logo. Like that's what you can do like soccer button, football button, I believe so. Yeah, that's crazy. Yeah, okay, that's a good use of money. That's the craziest thing that you bought as an AI field painting. And I didn't even bought it. I don't know. I bought a new house recently. Okay, nice. I wouldn't say that's crazy. Yeah,

that's not crazy. So it sounds like you have the 15 million for us. I mean it that's I wouldn't say that's crazy. Yeah, that's not crazy. So sounds like you have the 15 million for us. Yeah I mean, it's gonna do a good job with your money. The thing is, you know Who am I checking and savings the cancel set up? Yeah, yeah, I want to talk about last year a little bit Obviously the tomorrow hamlin thing was crazy What was it for you as like the leader of the team? Did you get in front of everyone like a day or two after being like, hey, this is you know like Did you feel that responsibility? Especially in a moment that had never happened before yeah in the locker room

Because we've gone back in and kind of gotten like a 15-20 minute break or whatever before we were gonna have to go back out there and play and I had to stand up and just kind of ask a question. And I hated asking the question to see if anybody and everybody would play. But I'm glad I did because it just took one person to say, no, when I do it, I was like, okay, when I do it. So that sucked. Obviously that situation was so crazy,

but I'm so glad that he's out here and practicing with us. And first day of pads back with him and just the inspiration that he's actually brought our team. And to go even further, the inspiration that he's brought and a lot of other people around the country, world, and he's done such a good job of teaching CPR classes and making sure that local communities and teams have AEDs and their facilities.

So a lot of good has come from that situation, which again, hundreds of lives are going to be saved because of that. Like that's just a fact because teams will use sports and all that stuff, the awareness can be incredible. Yeah, that's awesome. Yeah, what was it like getting ready to play the following week after that?

It was tough. Yeah, we were sitting thinking about it. Are they actually going to be able to play because that's going to be in the back here. Might are at the front of your mind all week. You're probably just like us, refreshing Twitter, trying to figure out like if there's any news, any news could be good news.

So like going to that week, what was that like trying to prepare for a game? Yeah, it's a little bit of a psychological warfare like within yourself. And every day we were getting updates, like the first team meeting we'd get a call from whether it was the doctors that were helping tomorrow or his parents. And then that third day we got a call and it was him.

And just being like seeing him and him just kind of saying like, you all boys go get him, like gave us enough juice to go out there and, you know, first play. Yeah, we're he-hands, yeah. Can't still can't believe it. Yeah, he minds, yeah, still can't believe it. Yeah, that was, that was insane. Absolutely insane. So what year seven, you're going to year seven? Year six. Year six.

What have you learned in the first five years where you're like, this is what we have to do different to get over that final mountain? Because you guys have been a really, really good team and you've had those chances, but it just hasn't broken your way. Yeah, I mean, I think playing your best ball at the end of the year is the biggest key. Again, this league is crazy. You're going to need some luck going your way. Injuries are a part of the game. In last year, I think we got a little bit bitten by that, but

it takes a lot of different moving parts to win a Super Bowl. And there's only one team at the end of the season that's going to be happy that they won and this and that, but I think everybody gets lost during the season with the whole. Let's go win the Super Bowl, thought instead of, let's just get to the playoffs and give ourselves a chance. Right. Right. Because you can't win the Super Bowl, you can't win lottery. If you don't buy a ticket, you can't win the Super Bowl. If you don't make the playoffs. Right. So the playoffs is our Super Bowl, you can't win lottery. If you don't buy a ticket, you can't win Super Bowl. If you don't make the playoffs. So the playoffs is our Super Bowl ticket. And we gotta, we gotta figure out, again,

just to find a way to get there. And then as soon as we get there, let's play our best ball. Yeah, and like not getting too high, not getting too low. Cause I felt like even last year, when you guys went into Kansas City early in the season, you beat him, that was like, oh, yeah, we got him back for the AFC Championship game, where it's like most of these teams that are there at the end, or sorry, it was like, oh, yeah, we got him back for the AFC Championship game where it's like, most of these teams that are there

at the end, or sorry, it was a divisional round. Most of these teams at the end, they're, they never too high, never too low, every win lost, like, the cult speed the chief's last year. And that was crazy. And that's the thing, sometimes like a loss actually helps you.

Yeah. Refokes is you're, it's like, all right, we should not have, like, what did we do during that week that caused us to lose that game? Like, why did we play off? Why? What caused things to go? All right, like, so sometimes those losses help more than wins do. And they kind of tell you who you are as a team, how you bounce back from things. So and I this sucks, like every game you want to go into and you want to win, but not every game is a must win game Right, right? That's where it can't lose. Yeah, exactly But again, just finding a way to get into playoffs and giving yourself a chance. Yeah, yeah, so what loss would you say was the most productive loss that you had last year?

Mm-hmm When you didn't cover the spread against the Packers Not that anyone here bet on that We didn't lose though. We might have lost against the Packers. Not that anyone here bet on that. We didn't lose though. We lost against the spread. Yeah, you lost against the spread. That's important. Well, I mean, yeah, we're 13 and three.

I mean, we lost, I think, all three games by combined eight or nine points. Yeah. Miami game was crazy. Miami game was crazy. A lot of it was, we were straight in the heat. And they construct that stadium too, where it just beats down on the opposing team. Yeah, it's it's crazy. He really is. Um,

the Jets game, Luzon of them and then Billy thought he won the Z war after the Vikings. Yeah, there was a but we learned a lot from the Vikings and that was crazy. That that some weird situations. Again, we're backed up defense makes a crazy stop. Um, and we're backed up, defense makes a crazy stop. We get the ball on the half inch yard line, the fumble, they pick it up in the end zone, they score, and we had the mental aptitude to go down in two minute and score and tie the game,

and then just through a bad pick in the end zone. Yeah, it's not so special. It was such an insane ending to that game. I'm still convinced that Sean put too many men on the field on purpose, it's like challenged, like call it on me. I'm still convinced that Sean put too many men on a field on purpose. It's like challenged and like called on me. I'll put 13 guys out there. We're on the half-inch line.

What are you gonna do? Half the distance to the goal. Now you're at the quarter-inch line. I think that was on purpose. Can you confirm or deny? No. Yeah, I can confirm or deny. We gotta talk real quick about,

you've been doing a lot of other content with other people. which is fine. Which is fine. We're, you know, we have an open relationship. It's totally fine. But, um, Daniel Ricardo, uh, friend of ours, friend of yours. Good friend. Good friend. Okay. But if you had to pick, also him, and we're not gonna make you pick, but if you had it you did make me pick when you guys face time in yeah, yeah, I'm Go my man dancing

Oh, come on. Is that a quote? Can you name that quote though? I got to give it to my man dancing Rick That's a it's a throwback movie. I do like I'm a big movie quote guys So I'll throw out movie quotes throughout the day. I just like name that movie I do like I'm a big movie quote guys, so I'll throw up movie quotes throughout the day and just like name that movie Dancing Rick dancing Rick. I got to give it to my man dancing Rick. Who's that? It's Ben Stiller and no one Wilson. Oh Starsky and Hutch that's kind of disgusting that that's a throwback movie. Yeah, there's a throwback movie It's 1997 probably 98 Are we too old for you? Is that the problem? You get a lot of young content creators. We're too old. We're not

cool. What are their content creators? Are you talking about who are you talking to? You did some golf video. I did some golf videos. We like those guys, Bob does sports. We love those guys. They're great. Great guys. But you know, it's just a little. Well, you guys don't wait. I've seen I've seen your golf in the hall. You know what? Let's let's let's get out.

I beat Hank last week. Yeah. Did you break a? Was it? You know, I did my job. I did my job. We put it that way. All right.

Wait, so how is the golf game coming? I do have you walked yourself into the one the the moment with Tom Brady. We got to be better. You got to consult us before which one when you had his Combined picture on the golf ball and he put a lumbarity trophy. It was like Josh you ever seen one of these. Yeah, we got a Like that's a that's one you should run by us. We can be like all right Here's here's what his reaction will be don't put your stuff Forget like what the other side's gonna do right we can take a head on the troll moves. Okay, yeah

We can read a defense very well when it comes to that perfect. Yeah, so you got to talk and then you also Aaron Rogers cheated right he did I'm a fan of erudgers now. I love Aaron. Yeah, but he did he cheated Yeah, he's sad bad you he's saying not just me The world the world. Yes, what do you do? He he may have gotten just Seven reach strokes too many. Oh, that Pepple Beach or nine Not coming. They're not I For me I'm not

I think I think there's a Roger should be in jail. Yeah, nope. I would never say that I would say a lot of the golfers maybe thought that too. Yeah. Yeah. You don't cheat on a golf course. Were you more nervous for the match than a football game? Yes. Because I would imagine like... You're putting down the ball on the tee and your hand is just shaking. And everyone's a golf expert online.

Yes. So like the minute you get up there and you tee off... No brother, this guy stinks. I don't do this. This is not my job. I love golf. I love playing golf and I'm getting to a point now where not my job. I love golf. I love playing golf and I'm getting to a point now where it's like I'm getting better. Yeah.

I feel good about my game right now. So let's set up a date. Okay. And we'll go. Done. We're done. So all those except for Hank. Can I ask one question?

Yeah. The straight leg swing. It's just a real swing. No, it's not a real swing. It's a real swing It's just a real swing. That's a real swing. That's a real swing. That's a real swing. That's a real swing. Yeah.

It's good though. It gets people going. It does get people going. I used to do it when I was dropping with my friends when I would like, like, the whole 17 I was just bored because I get bored playing golf. I just be like, watch this drive. Like George Bush. He's just fucking straight legs.

And he usually goes straight. So I could, maybe I'll just do it the whole time and do the video. You and I be on a team and I'll just straight legs everything. Okay. I bet you'll do it in my shot. Yeah, I'll bet you will use it. You and me versus you can pick your,

Hank. No, I was gonna say, I'm gonna take, Brooks Capcom. I'm gonna take, take Max or Jake, no, I got Jake. Yeah. Love the new dog by the way. Do you like Blake?

I love Blake. He's a very good boy. Do you have any dogs? No. I love dogs, though. That's a red flag. Yeah, that doesn't sound like a little bit of a pet. I've had him in the past.

Okay. You're going to get another one? Maybe soon. Okay. We'll see. What are we doing this year about like protecting your health? Are we still smashing all the buttons sometimes? Or are there plays?

Less. So you are getting to a point where you're like, I'm not going to go quit because when you do go crazy and mash all the buttons, it's the coolest thing at us. And you're just like dominate people, run over guys. But I also we watch all the games obviously together on Sundays in the gambling cave. And there's like a moment every Sunday where we collectively hold our breath because you're mashing all the buttons. And we're like, Josh, be careful, Josh, be careful. So you're going to think about it a little more. Yeah, Josh, be careful, Josh, be quick.

Yeah, just, yes. But just think about when you're doing that, think about us and how worried we are. Okay. Not my mom or my dad. No, it's us. I'm best friends. I feel like every time we talk, we've had this conversation going into every season. You're like, yeah, you know, I've learned that I got to protect my body.

I got to be more careful sometimes. And then you get out there and you're like, get the crap. Get the crap balls. Yeah. But I also don't hold it against you because if I had the ability to mash all the buttons like you do, I'd do it all the time. Yeah. Because it's got to feel cool when you're like, oh, I'm going to run over this linebacker.

Sometimes. Yeah. Yeah. You've also been talking a little bit more shit when you run people over, I like that. Yeah, you know, I've kind of got away from trash talking, trying to. If you'd trash talk to me, it's like, poking the bear, if you want, I don't need to poke anybody.

Yeah. I'll handle my own business, you do whatever you need to do, and I don't want to give anybody any added motivation. Is there a guy that's trash talked to you and you're like, okay, all right, let's see. And then you go out there and do some special to him. I mean, it's not just one guy, but I think as soon as anybody does that to me during the game

and so I kind of flips a switch and just locks me in a little bit more. Yeah. Hierarchy in terms of coaching, Sean McTermott's obviously the head coach. But he's now the defensive coordinator. Could you give him shit as a defensive coordinator? Be like I'm talking to DC Sean. Yeah, you're an idiot and then head coach Sean like yes, sir. Whatever you need. Love you coach. We're teams doing great. Yeah. No, it's kind of it's a weird Transition period right now where we're kind of getting used to it. He's coming up to me and like, hey, you kicked my ass today.

It's like, wait, you're the head coach. Yeah, so it's like, oh, you're talking about the defense. I get it. You know, so I can imagine that could be tough at some points, but the way that he's handled it, I think he's doing such a good job with calling defense right now and it's switching things up and making my job really hard back there in terms of figuring out what's going on. He's throwing a lot of stuff at me. So maybe you can stand up for head coach Sean at this point because Colin Coward fake

soup guy overall weasel did his listing of the top 10 quarterback coach combos in the league. He had you guys at eight. You and Sean at eight. Is he poking the bear right now? Mm-hmm. I don't care. Yeah.

I don't care about none of that. Yeah. Put it on high backwards. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Oh, he's going to be sure. Oh, yeah.

Now he's 12. Now he's number 13, 14. Yeah. You're quarterback. You're dropping. I'm a top of it. Oh, well,. All right, Josh, I have one last question. We love having you on. It's a robot question, rhobac.com.

Use promo code. Take 20% off first purchase, QZips, Polo's, hoodies, joggers, shorts, and we're in the shorts right now. You'd look great in those shorts. That's good. You'd look great in those shorts. We actually just did a Bill's media thing where they came and they just asked us about you

and they asked us what you're working the community. Like talk about Josh's work in the community. We don't actually know what you do in the community so we just were like, Josh is incredible in the community, all the stuff he does in the community. Do you want to shout out your work in the community? Because you are, everyone, whoever asked me, they're like, what's Josh on? I I'm like he is genuinely just a great dude

And it the money hasn't changed him the fame hasn't changed him and I think that shows with your work in the community Yeah, yeah, you still could do a heel to it. I know we could we could help you with that Yeah, but what's the big thing you're doing right now because I did feel bad after we did it It's like we literally don't know anything. He's doing the community. We just know he's in the community. No, I think the Patricia Allen Fund at Oshai Children's Hospital is something that I love helping out with and just trying to raise money for kids and families that are going through unfortunate times. I think I can recall as a kid my brother had a rare disease and him spending some time in a children's hospital back in Fresno and Valley Children's.

And just remember my feeling, remember seeing my parents, how they were feeling, how my brother was feeling. So it's something that I love to take part in and raising money for these families because I feel like I've been there. Right. And just little things like that, man.

I've got some really great partners when you talk about West Hur donating a lot of money to the Patrish Alun fund. I think we've raised over, was it now, three and a half million dollars for that fund? It started because my grandmother passed away right before the Seahawks game a couple years ago. And somehow there was one fan that found out, I don't know really how he did and he tweeted, like let's donate $17 to the Shai Chisholm Hospital in honor of his grandmother and you know,

the next couple of days, I got up to like $10,000, $15,000 and I was just, it was like, wow, I can't believe people would do that and fast forward to now where we are millions of dollars being raised for families and kids and buying technology to help doctors and their nurses and their give these kids the best help that they can. I love it. That's also such a classic Bill's fan story. Yeah. I feel like they do that a lot where they find out that somebody needs something. Don't even ask for it but they just spring into action. Yeah. So yeah. Good fan base. Great fan base here. I love it. And they will build a statue of you if you

win a Super Bowl. Just go one super. No, but about that if you thought because like there is Great sports stories. There's only a few left out there, you know like the Cubs won a world series like there's you know LeBron went back to Cleveland and won an NBA title like Being a quarterback for the bills to win a Super Bowl like have you had that it gives me chills even saying it Yeah, it's cool. It's just cool to be like going after that thing that is so elusive to a community. Yeah. Oh, I know is that I have like dreams of what that parade

would look like. Yeah, it's gonna be, yeah. It will be amazing. It will be that. Oh, one last last thing. You're Halloween party this year. We're talking to Vaughn earlier. Because you have the Halloween party here in Buffalo

and now here's Sean McDermott okay we now welcome on a very special guest recurring guest it is Buffalo Bill's head coach Sean McDermott on grit week. So let's start there. How would you define the word grit? What does it mean to you? Yeah, I mean, I think it means mental, mental toughness, right? Which I'm a big believer in and big proponent of. I think you got to have that in life over all these days. Yeah. Is that why you guys are back in the dorms this year? Yeah. This is a very gritty environment. It does feel like a little bit of a throwback.

Yeah, and yesterday we lost power, so we went about, which was intentional. That was intentional. Nice. Yeah, I heard that. I heard that. I heard that comment. No, we did it intentionally,

just to kind of get back to our roots. We only were able to have deli sandwiches for lunch and so it yeah it was just kind of like back to the olden days. Yeah so yeah in the dorms do you have a nark? Do you have like an RA that's in charge of yeah you know there's funny there's signs still on the hallways that say like hey keep keep it down after a certain time and because the walls are really thin and so it makes me laugh that, that's some of the stuff that still goes on.

Yeah, he's professional. He's professional athletes. No, it's from, it's from. No, I'm saying the professional athletes have to deal with this. Oh, they gotta see that. Yeah. Now last night outside of my room,

one of our players pulled up. He had this music pumping. I'm trying to get some sleep, you know, and I'm just like, I couldn't wait till curfewed for him to have to go inside, you know, because it was right outside my dorm room and I'm just like, you know, I'm just like, yeah, all right. Let's do it. You sign you're getting old. I have that.

Exactly. Turn down the music, please. There's no way to say turn down the music and not feel like an old guy. I know. No weeks old. Yeah. No getting old. I have. Exactly. Turn down the music please. There's no way to say turn down the music and not feel like an old guy. I know. No wigs on. Yeah. No wigs on. So last year, crazy year, very emotional year for you guys. What going into this season? You had there had to have been a little bit obviously didn't end well against the Bengals, but a little bit after the season being like, wow, that was not what we went through. Like, it's going to be nice to start clean, fresh. Is there any residual from like, you know, the Demar thing, the Bengals loss where, or you guys clean page, let's move forward here. Yeah, you know, every year, there's adversity in the NFL on a team's journey. And last

year just happened to, it came in, it came in the form of a title wave, really through the things you mentioned. But I think you carry as much as you want to turn the page, and that's important, I think three-fourths of that's true. But you do carry about 25% of that with you in the form of some muscle, you know, as you learn a little bit about yourself, about your teammates, about the organization, and then our community. And I think it's, to me, we care it for

with us and in the way of, you know, mental and physical muscle and strength. Yeah. I've been reading a lot of stuff coming out of this camp, apparently, the offense is looking pretty good. How would you grade the job that your defensive coordinator is doing? Yeah. That remains to be seen. I mean, he has some good days and some bad days and if he doesn't get his crap together, I'm going to can him. Yeah. How do you evaluate yourself? Head coach evaluating defensive coordinator, Sean? Yeah. I talked to myself in the third person when I do that. You know, it's interesting.

Yeah. What the hell were you thinking? You got it. Well, I had a couple of calls yesterday. It's interesting. Yeah. But the hell were you thinking about? You can't do it. Well, I had a couple of calls yesterday. It's all the defense in the meeting. After practice, I said, hey, that's on me. I put, I didn't put you in position, right? And, but no, you, that's, that's the kind of tear

or the pull as I had coach anyway. When you're an offensive defensive guy, you, you think, you can never have a great practice because when you're going against each other, you know, it's never even, right? So you can never walk away, go, hey, that was a great practice. The offense played well, defense played well. That just doesn't happen. When your inside plays well, the other side probably doesn't.

So it's a mental, mental pool. So not controversy, but a lot of talk about the fact that you put the little Mbardi up in the facility, so on a banner. No, I don't stir it up. Here we go, man. I'm just asking, we are superstitious guys. I think that was a dumb move. It was internally, it's our internal purposes only. And really, it has nothing to do with anything outside or expectations outside.

It's more of just believing in keeping one's vision and one's goals in front of them at all times, and as a daily reminder, because as we, as you guys mentioned a few minutes ago, there's a ton of adversity that tries to cloud one's vision in terms of getting the way of the goal. And so it should be a goal every year, not only this year, but every year. And we have a 100% respect for all of our opponents. It's just really about us keeping our focus internally on what we're trying to accomplish.

No, actually, I actually like the way it is. It's crazy. That becomes a story. It's funny because the controversy is an FL head coach wants to win Super Bowl. Did you think that's not come on half of the class have some class. Did you think about the clock though because I'm more of a clock guy than a put up the little party like the countdown to the Super Bowl kickoff. Big clock in the in the facility. Yeah. That one kind of always gets me going. Yeah. You know, I've been to some colleges and they have that countdown clock to the first opponent in the countdown.

So in so forth through the season to the second, third and whatnot opponent. But you know, I don't know. I just we just take it one step at a time. That's really what we're all about. We're about respecting our opponents and putting in the work. Are those moments when you put up a banner with the Lombardi and been like, this is what we're going for. And then the media is like Sean McDermott puts up the little party you like how is this a story?

It's training camp right and so everyone's got to they have a job to do also so they got a job they got they got people to do a job in the media we pay your salary actually well no league without us that's right that's fact right playing a parking lot nobody would know nobody would know that football games were going on It's being big cat didn't talk on Monday morning. Right exactly So we can maybe cover up for that throw throw us some red meat. What else are you guys doing? Some red meat? Yeah, what else are you guys doing here at camp? It's a little bit out of the ordinary that we can use to deflect from the fact that you're very disrespectfully

Telling everyone that we want to win a Super Bowl No, we just we mine our own business up here. I mean, we try and go get to know each other when we're up here. Guys, play some cards, you know, they kind of bond a little bit up here. And there's not a lot of teams that still go away, right? There's a thing probably less than a third of the teams go away. We like to go away. I think it gets guys out of the house and gets them a little bit more focused

on building our team and the bonds that are necessary to build the chemistry and the camaraderie and then put in the work that needs to be put in, at least through the first, you know, a third or first half of training camp, and then we'll go home. Yeah, we've kind of been at the forefront of reminding people that they should respect

your ability to kick ass. As you were two time, was it a state champion? Yeah, two time national prep school champion. Which last time you wrestled somebody? I don't know. In my mind every day. Yeah, oh, I like that. Yeah, you say.

So when you sit across from someone, and you're just saying, hey, I think I could kick you ass. You sizing us up? Yeah. You sizing us up every room you walk in. Yeah, are you sizing me up? I'm definitely sizing you up. Second, you stand in front.

Really? Yeah, I love that. I love that size you up second. You stuck this for us. Really? Oh, love that. I love that, man. Yeah. That's awesome. Yeah. That's a freaking wrestler's mindset. I don't know.

Well, I don't know about that. I don't know. I don't know what I'm saying. I go low. Yeah. I go around the news. We hold you down. Really?

Yeah. Big hack or kick your ass. Do that. I'll try to get it. Well, we're done. We'll just do that. If you're a wrestler, you have that and you wrestle Do you know what I always try to get the best out of him? Well, we're done. We'll just do that. If you're a wrestler, you have that, and you wrestle from a number of years, you develop

that mindset of, you know, you feel you could kick anybody's ass. Yeah, we work with a guy who wrestled at Kent State, and he always will give a little shit. And I'm always like, no, dude, I don't want that. But wrestlers are a different breed. And it's kind of like, I guess like martial arts, and I've never done martial arts, but it's in a respectful mindset.

Like you don't use it unless you have to, but it's always in your mind of it's there. Yeah, is there a part of you that wishes that you're gotten cauliflower here? I did a little bit, I had to get this one drained. Yeah, my last season. That's always a good look though. Like if you see somebody with callflower here,

instantly you're like, not gonna mess about that. Respect, yeah. Yeah, I'll tell you what's even better is, if you watch the NCAA finals, okay, you watch the NCAA finals, the interviews that they do, Quinn's Siner I think does it after the final matches. He interviews the winner of the match.

And what they say, you should record it. It's lessons in life, right? It's just powerful. Yeah, those guys are just bad asses. They go through hell basically to wrestle every week. Yeah Yeah, and that's not quince night or I think it's another quince We'll let it that out. We're going to let it this whole interview out. Yeah, the whole thing just yeah Crazy crazy story that I want to get your take on you

Were delayed for a for a flight was canceled in Atlanta. Yeah. You met a random bills fan, you flew to Pittsburgh, and then you and the random bills fan, I think your daughter all drove back together to Buffalo. Yeah, that's right. That actually probably ties into you being like, I can kick anyone's ass, knowing like, hey, I can, it doesn't matter this time. Put a complete change in my car next to me.

I'll upload party tonight. So what was that like? Was he just asking you a million questions about the bills? That's a insane story and also one of the coolest stories for a fan. Yeah, so check this out. So we were flying out of Atlanta, we get canceled, which many flights get canceled these days, right? And so in true Buffalo fashion, we're flying standby

and my daughter and myself are like, we're like number 19 and 20 of like 40 people trying to fly standby to get back to Buffalo. And of course, we don't make it, but there's only three people that made it. And each time that person's name got announced, in true Buffalo fashion, people were clapping in the gate for them. Like

usually it's feast or famine. Like everyone's just trying to, you know, hey, give me your past to get on board and everyone's clapping for for people who are making it, right? There was a young young mother and her inner young child. And so everyone's feeling good about them. And then the rest of us are saying, Hey, do you want to drive back? We're kind of teaming up again in Buffalo fashion and then we end up flying a Pittsburgh and that's the story you heard you read and so my daughter and I are going to Pittsburgh and someone comes into the gate and this this this Buffalo fan and he says, hey, how you getting back from Pittsburgh to Buffalo and I said, we got a car, which it was hard to get.

I mean, usually, especially late at night. Right. And so we get this car and I wait for them in the baggage area and off we go, he sits in the front next to me. My daughter's in the back eventually, she falls asleep and we're driving three hours from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania to Buffalo and talking about you name it. Right.

The girls, his coaching coaching careers a young coach and very passionate about it and and then you know he did tell me said hey I live right near you and it turned out to be you know at 3 a.m. in the morning that's not 10 minutes away is not 15 minutes away is not right near me right I thought he meant like the neighborhood over. Right, you know. You probably wasn't even from Buffalo. He just went to a random house. He just went to a random house. He just went to a random house.

He just went to a random house. Yeah. I got to chill in the car or something. No, but I think he has said his part of the story. And it was a I think cool thing for him. But I got to tell you it was just as cool for me just to, you know, talk shop, talk to a Buffalo Bill's fan and get his perspective on things. And that's, that's again, what's unique to Buffalo, right? Is the community, the bond with the community, the oneness, I think it's pretty special.

That is, if you any like tips or anything, we're like, all right, enough talking. There's like, if I were sitting with you, I'd be like, Hey, have you, you know, have you thought about, you know, more full-back heel marriage? Yeah, like fake punting. Full-back heel marriage, yeah. Yeah, try that. Was that a good Houston? Yeah. Yeah, that was a nice play. Yeah, full full back heel Mary. Yeah, like fake punching. Full back heel Mary's, yeah. Yeah, try that. Was that a good Houston? Yeah.

Yeah, that was a nice play. Yeah, full back heel Mary. Yeah, or I would have brought up the, which we went last time you're on like, hey, why didn't you leave Nathan Peterman on? We were in the game. We were going for record here. Yeah, no.

10 interceptions. Yeah, we, he brought up some of those. And then I just said, hey, listen, we're not going to talk to Mr. Trigale. We're going to put the playbook in there. Next one that talks is, is, hey listen, we're not gonna talk to this the truth. We're gonna put the playbook on it. Next one that talks is, you know, whatever. So, we played that game for a while. Yeah, that's such an awesome story.

As a coach, have you reached the point where you just have stopped having the discussion with Josh Allen to try to protect himself because you know that he's just gonna go nuts no matter what and at the end of a play, he's gonna try to extend it and being safe is nice in theory, but then in practice, once the blood gets going, Josh is gonna be Josh. Yeah, no, I tell him.

I say listen, when you, before you came on this job for me in 2018, I had a full head of red hair. And ever since that day, it just keeps falling out because I keep saying, do you play smart, play smart, you know? No, but he's, listen, I don't think you ever change part,

you know, totally that part because or that piece, it's part of what makes him who he is. He's very competitive person and player and it's what's made him great, right? So it's just, it's just adjusting, right? And that's what you do in your golf game. You adjust things, you tweak things. And I think he just needs to, as he knows,

as he said, adjust some things. And it's about keeping him healthy so we can win. And it's hard to win when you don't have your starting quarterback. Yeah, and also, so last year it felt like there were times when the offense, it was like kind of a boomer bust throwing it deep, not being able to get maybe those like long drives,

middle of the field. It feels like drafting Dalton, Kincaid trying to maybe get some more slot receivers. Is that something you're focusing on? Like, hey, let's get some of these underneath yards knowing that the defense is going to play a certain way because of Josh's arm talent. Yeah, I think if we just we want to get like 20 play drives going and just not give, I think just one possession each half. Yeah like army, army navy, navy, navy, you know option triple option, get under center.

So we'll probably do a little bit of that, probably a little bit of getting the ball to Dalton, uh, can cade from time to time and then I don't know maybe like the full back dive. Yes. There is a lot of things you can do off of that. There is scoring too fast. I don't want to bring it up, but there is. there is no does exist. I'm aware of that. Yes I'm aware of that. It's basically a turnover that you happen to get points for yeah

And then a defense is back out on the right. I would never want to throw a bomb. No, I mean yeah Yeah, we're commanders and barris fans here. We hate scoring fast Scoring fast is a problem. Yeah, because you also have a certain amount of points and you don't want to use them all right away. It's like, yeah, like, and that'll probably come up in like one of these video games that, like, the old tech mobile. You guys remember that? Yeah. That was an Nintendo.

Brings me back to my best friend. He got his dad. He was getting back great. So his dad ripped his Nintendo out of the wall and threw it in the coldest sack in the street and at his house. Like, as a dad, you have time to think through that, right? You're not only are you mad, yeah, but you rip it out of the wall.

You march it from the back of the house to the front of the house and you have time to catch yourself. Like what am I doing? Throwing like a 500 out of a thing in the middle of the street and scarring my kid and doing so. But he got better grades after that, so. Yeah, to move. The move my best friend dad dad did was and I still think how genius it was. I'm gonna pull it on my kid someday He took the power cord and he said he hit it, but he really just put in his car and took it to work every day

So we would just like we spent the entire week looking for this for and then on Friday Like oh, I got the court and then we didn't realized for like a year that he was just taking it to work every day. Yeah, that's torture. Yeah, that's it. It's a smart. Yeah, that's high level. Yeah, that's high level parenting.

You're walking the Nintendo out to the street. At some point, you're at the end of your drive when you're thinking yourself, I really shouldn't be doing this, but they're watching me. And so I have to go through with it. Yeah, I'm committed. Yeah. If I turn back right now, it looked like a wimp. Yeah. And then you just throw it out of the string, destroy it on.

And you just launch it. Yeah. Yeah. What do you do? What are the what are the what are the neighbors think? Number one, and then do you go clean it up? You probably think that you stink at the video game. Yeah. Like man, this is got mad at the video. This neighbor of ours is that must play video games like crazy. And he's pissed off. We're we're a truth podcast. We never speculate. We never have takes that are unfounded

in facts. So we want to help you right here. How's Stefan Dix? Everything's good. He's great. Because that was a lot. I mean, people were saying crazy things. We would never say crazy things. Never speculate. I think Hank said that he was basically quitting football. Yeah. We had to jump in and take your side. Hey, let's wait all for all the facts. Right. I think you just throw it. Take said that he didn't even report to camp or he didn't even show up here.

And I was like, Hank, that's not true. But Hank is just living in a world of fake news. Yeah, we'll get Hank right. Yeah. But how do you do? Yeah, how do you do a situation where it's like the media is snowballing and you know the facts. And it's like, it's hard to kind of pull it back and be like

Hey, listen guys like we're good. Yeah, we keep trying to keep team business, you know team business and At the end of the day, it's about Getting on the same page and then and those take good healthy conversations and then we move forward and that's what you do And yeah, and we're in a good spot and teams in a good spot. And we move forward. Yeah. There's a lot of good Irish coaches in the NFL right now. Have you noticed that? I love this.

Yeah. Tell me where you're going with this. Well, no, I'm just, I want to get your thoughts on it. What is it about Irish guys that make some good leaders? Let's talk about the Irish coaches. Okay. McDermott, McVeigh, Shanahan, O'Connell, McCarthy, McDaniel, McDaniels, a lot of Irish guys out there.

Yeah, yeah, no, you're right. I didn't even notice that. Yeah. So it's almost a third. You mentioned about what? Seven. Yes. Seven.

I probably left a couple out too. Yeah, it's just off the top of my head. But guys that are Irish that you don't even know, they're Irish. Yeah, right. Right. Tomlin. Mm-hmm. Do you like Irish? He has Limericks know their Irish. Yeah, right. Right. Tom. He might be Irish. He has limericks all the time. Right. Just like random. Yeah, he's a word smith. Yeah, he's I had a I had the honor and the pleasure of playing with Mike in college.

And he he was the same way back then. Just saying saying things great leader. Yeah, great leader I great command of the English language and had great control of his eyes at all times Which I love watching his press conferences. Yeah, just watching those two things is hearing what he says and watching his eyes Yeah, yeah, I love that guy He's got me a lot he locks in when he locks in on you It seems pretty intimidating for any reporter that's asking the question. It's a good quality to have, I think, in a head coach.

Or is it that? Yeah, right? True. Eyes everywhere. Eyes in the back of your head. Does it hurt a little more if you lose to a friend? Like, does it, like, you know, I think it was a week one a couple of years ago. Like, does that sting a little more if you're going up against a friend? Yeah.

Where's the guy you have no relationship with? Yeah, thanks for bringing that back up. Sorry. Well, your other friend, Andy, I could have thought about that. This is about grit, though. Yeah. This is about grit, yeah. So the grit tour.

So, yeah, no, it's, you know, whether it's Andy and I'm fortunate I've been around some really good coaches have gone on to become head coaches many out there now. And, yeah, there's always that. It's kind of like in some ways you know going against your brother in the backyard and as much as you pull form when you're not playing them when you play them you want to you want to beat them and they want to beat beat us beat me and yeah you kind of put a little bit more into it. Yeah do you miss do you miss having Brian Debel around?

Yeah you miss his D's nuts jokes. I'm not going there. I'm not going there. I'm not going there. I'm not going there. All right, well last question. This has been awesome. We asked this to Dan Campbell when we were in Detroit. Just talk about football.

What does football mean to you? And it's OK if you want to cry. He's got a little missed the idea. What does football mean to you? Yeah, what did he say? He literally was about to cry. Yeah. He just talked about the game and how much he loves it. Yeah. What it's done for him?

Yeah, I was thinking about it this morning. I was working out this morning. It's the first day of pads for us here at camp. And that feeling never changes. And I don't even play anymore. And I've never played the NFL. But when you play from the time you're growing up, as a little guy to the time you're in junior high,

high school, then college. And now for these guys as professionals, the young professionals and now the older professionals, I was talking to one of our veterans this morning and said it really, the feeling doesn't change. It's the same. You're always a little bit on edge, little quiet. That's how the dining hall was in college.

That's how it was this morning. Everybody's kind of in their own head space, right? And, but I also think about, like, this is what I love to do. You know, walk, I was walking around, dragging around the track this morning. Like, this is what I love to do, man. I love coaching football, I love competing. And that doesn't change.

And it's provided a livelihood for me and my family. In an incredible way, what a blessing it's been. And I'm humbled by it, right? To have this opportunity to go out and lead a group of men on the field and women and try and improve every day and embrace that growth mindset. I think it's unique, but special at the same time.

Yeah, I think you are a big mindset guy. What is, I hear people talk about the importance of mindset and I guess various ways of looking that and how that affects you from mental type but also physical side. When you say that you're a big mindset guy, was that mean? Well, it goes back for me when I was young, my mom and dad when we were wrestling gave my brother and I a book on mental toughness, on grit basically. It's probably one of the cornerstones of mental toughness training these days and I can see the book in my mind still and I kept it.

So, I just think it's important to have that in life and in sports in particular. I mean, this life challenges you and sports professional football challenges. You have a lot of ways in particular mentally. All these players have the physical capabilities, but who has the mental capabilities because you got to train the mental even more than you got to train the physical. Yeah, yeah. We're mega mindset. Yeah, we are mega.

Well, thank you, coach. Last time we had John, you did say that we could live at your house if we wanted to, to go to wing nuts. So we might still take you up on the way we went last night. So yeah, yeah, did you go by my house or not? No, we were going to go tonight, we're going to stay here. Yeah, just make sure you put sheets on the bed. Okay, yeah, you get a bed. That's huge.

I thought we were going to be on in this. And take my dog out while you're there. Okay, no problem. I'm not stealing your dog. What kind of dog is it? He's a, his name's champ. He's a burner doodle. Okay.

Is that you, you're drinking your self again now with a dog named? Yeah, we just hate, it's developing a mindset in McDermott household. Here we go. Yeah, I mean, a dog ring, a dog named. What do you want to, what do you want to call him for? First round exit.

Yeah, never won. Hey, never guess ring a dog meme. What do you want? What do you want to call him for? I don't exit. No, yeah, never one. Hey, never one. Come on over here. Right? Never one. You think you'd answer to that? Yeah, no. Right?

He'd be trying to jump the fence and get out of there as soon as he could. Yeah. That's true dogs. No, we're trying to train his mindset, too. Coach, thank you as always. You're the best and best luck this year. All right.

And PFT was like, my phone's about to die. Can I borrow yours? It is, Dad. And I was like, no problem.

And your phone is dead. And as you were saying that Hank pulled out his phone, there's plugged into a mofie in his pocket. Hank, can I borrow that mofie? This is come back, bro. I, PFT's been here. You had two pairs of gloves this whole time Hang on hang on hang on let me put the cap on this body armor. How many times have you used this move for this week? I once

Good question Hank. Okay Mount Rush for time. It is what's the score? I know big happy he's just hate you soft-shrowing we that's what you did What's why how's that a good front to you? It's not. It's not. It's not. It's not. It's not. It's not. It's not. It's not. It's not.

It's not. It's not. It's not. It's not. It's not. It's not. It's not. It's not.

It's not. It's not. It's not. It's not. It's not. It's not. It's not. It's not. It's not. It's not. us. Hey, oh, just a little cleanup from out rush for Monday. That was actually worse of an idea than we thought it was going to be and we thought it was going to be the worst. I didn't get a single text thanking me. I got several texts. Jerry O'Connell. Yeah, he didn't text me. No, I got some angry. We picked. Oh,

you guys. Yeah, who's the most angry Hank? My dad was upset. What he was he upset about? He's been on the show. He had a lot of that. Whitney texted me, Edelman tweeted at me. Just not good. Yeah, we're reminded of you. We're reminded of you. Like mad at me. That's never where you want to be. They reminded me of a match the party I went on, probably like 10 years ago, where one

of my buddies pulled out a whiteboard and was like, let's when we were all hammered at 3am and was like, to the groom. It's like, why don't you rank all of us? And that was basically the same energy. It's bad. It said impossible, you should never rank your friends. We did it. It was stupid.

We love all of our recurring guests. When you said, I've got an idea coming out of the break after Mount Rushmore. I said, yes, before you said with you, I thought that you were gonna say, let's do a different Mount Rushmore. Cause I felt so bad about it. Yeah.

Every recurring guest moving forward, there's gonna roast you guys. That's fine. We deserve it. We deserve it. But that was, it was entertaining. Ish. It was a mistake.

It was a huge mistake. It was almost as big a mistake as doing a podcast in a hole. It was also a big mistake. It's God. Stephen Lenny were picked. Who? St. Ray Stephen Lenny Dex. Oh yeah, I didn't even big person. It's God, Stephen Lenny were picked. Who? Singular Steve and Lenny Doug. Oh yeah, I didn't even remember them.

Yeah, yeah. That seems like some animosity coming from Team Billion Jake. Well, Billy Pondton, it's all right. Who's allowed to pick today, Jake? We had actually had some good talks before this one. Okay, we'll see, that doesn't mean anything. Billy, do you think you had a good talk? Well, they both, yeah, I know we had a great talk.

We'll talk Mike's too, that's gonna be it. First of the draw. Yes, yes. Okay, so it's the Mount We'll talk mics too. Let's go ahead. First of the draw. Yes, yes. Okay, so it's the Mount Rushmore of Goats. We have first pick. We do. All right, so we will start the Mount Rush. With three.

No, we're going to start with one. Yeah. You don't even know you do. Yeah, we do. Yes, because Hank gave me his charger. Yeah, C words are. And it's Michael Jordan. Easy, easy pick.

Mike MJ the go Most in everything. Oh, no Oh, you're talking about one in the 1950s. He's the goat in basketball. He's a goat in shoes He's a goat in coolness. He's the goat go in ear rings It's good. Yeah, it's a great. It's a great Michael Jordan It's a goat. Yeah, Michael Jordan. Yeah, so we had a 1 a 1b. Yeah, so one of our 1a1b. Okay, so it was a good pick Yeah, you had a 1 and a 2 then I mean if we have we knew you guys were gonna take one of the two We also love taking Michael Jordan because we know that Hank will not take LeBron James

And he's not the goat, but we also know you won't do yeah, which I could try to split the vote, but you won't We also know you won't do. Yeah, which I would try to split the vote, but you won't. Yeah, we're going to go with the goat and the sport that this podcast is made of Tom Brady. Oh, good. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Nice. Take Jake.

Can you take Jake? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, Brady, do you have any mics left that you can trade? Oh, man. Tom's definitely going to text you tomorrow and be like, what the fuck? Hank, I didn't have the chance to take him. Otherwise, I obviously would have.

He would have been your one one. Yeah. Okay. So you have two picks, Max and Hank. What should we do here? Let's just go. Let's just go. Two. They got. All right. We're going to go Tiger Woods. Oh, he has the most he is the most majors. He changed his work. He has major. I just like to just like, what did you just say? Jack, the good pick and Bill Russell. Wait, do you mean it's a good pick? Do you mean like to go dad because his son, he literally just walked in and got all forever. He brought a new generation of fans to it.

The entire game. So he has the most major. Tiger. And he has the most majors. That's not what it's all about. I guess if Jack, if Jack pick, if that was, if that was your, if that's your logic Then well that was your logic when you said that MJ was not I wasn't Dendrigrating I was just asking a question. You knew you're gonna take Tiger Woods You still try to do the bill wrestle thing. I didn't I just asked a question. I even mentioned bill wrestle Okay, so we're gonna go Tiger Woods then we're gonna go Wayne Greskey the great one. Okay. Good. Okay. Your second pick was fantastic I like it. Oh, yeah, I think that oh the cat's back. I think we go with it. Oh, that's a boy cat, right?

It's you don't see boy cats. Well, no, it's unnoodered boy cat. Why just assume all cats are girls. You don't see nuts hanging off a cat. Yeah, that's true. That's a barn. But I do do you not assume all cats or girls? I guess it's because you don't see nuts hanging off cats. No, really don't feel so that's a pair Yeah, he's got a pair of nuts. Yeah, that's a beast So this next one Frank Gore Billy Billy actually came up with it on his own could I deserve the credit? It'll go on a game, but he likes it We're going with Joey Chessna. Okay, okay Yeah, he is I think the best there's no close I get it. Oh, we had him. Yeah, anybody else had that we go three and

said there's no close second. It does. You have any else. I don't think he has any else not on the grandstays. Maybe I don't know. I don't think he has any else. He does have an L. He lost. Yeah, Kobe. I see also lost. No one remembers that. No one remembers that. Who do you list? Stoney. That's Tony. Yeah, Stoney. But he's the goat. As now he's one more championship. So I think anybody on this list. Okay. He's the a stony uh... but he's the goat as now he's one more championships and i think anybody on this list he's the goat eater you just get uh... uh... alert saying almost there stand yeah

we're like sync dot with just got a thing we've been doing the exact same thing that's true i have been standing though because we're not keep coming out like that you guys are just at the numbers during billion jim pick that was one of the most disrespectful things that've ever seen. Correct. Damn. I'm excited about it. I saw it. You guys were doing three and seven.

We're doing three and seven. We're like three and seven. Well, no, three and seven. No, because that's a great pick. There's nothing to say about that pick. We had that pick. We would have taken that pick. That's a fact.

If they hadn't taken Joey Chestnut, we would have taken Joey Chestnut. Oh, really? Yes. So that's why we were moving about this. We there was nothing bad to say. Like we were gonna, that was absolutely a pick. We were gonna take right there.

So it was a good pick. Thank you. Yeah. And we've got two great picks right now coming back at you. Mm-hmm. All right, I'll go and then PFT. Yep. Uh, we'll go with Muhammad Ali.

Mm-hmm. On our list. He couldn't really compete with. He is like, I said, I said, don't tell him. He is the goat. He's the goat. He's both the goat. He would absolutely know term goat because Muhammad Ali was the greatest out of time the goat Facts he's the goat Fax is in fury would beat him facts. I don't know that is facts. I don't know about that Okay, not facts and then his facts are third pick Nancy Reagan throw go throw go baby throw the absolute go make sure it says throw go

Okay, well, we have Billie J. Kank Max PFT. That sounds right to me. Memes? You know what? I'm gonna actually even be such a good guy because I actually put your name twice Hank. I'm gonna delete the second one. I'll so love you so much. Memes, I don't think you you shaved this morning probably. What about memes? I think memes shaved already. Shane, yeah, I'd shave a memes there. Yeah. Here we go. Let me say, I'm I'm witnessing. Please me see. I'm witnessing. Please be me.

I'm saying. I didn't see that. You broke the name in there. Are we allowed to shake? Yeah, but that's not. Okay, I'll go again. Wait a minute. That's fine.

This is insane. I'm witnessing. I don't trust you either. Pick a random name. It's Jake. Okay, there you go, Jake. Jake's got a shape. Damn, Jake. It's got a shave. Damn Jake.

It's not the worst because if I get it on Friday, I would rather get it earlier in the week than later in the week. What do you guys want me to shave? Your chest. No, you have to shave your face. With the razor? No, you just have to shave your face.

Yeah, shave your face. Wait, have you shaved your face? Oh, geez. Are you serious? Where, I get red. Is this a joke? I mean, you're using electric razor my whole life. Out of the hole. Sit down, sit down. No, geez. Are you serious? Where I get read is this is this joke? I've been using electric razor my whole life out of the hole sit down No, yeah, the whole hey talk it to where you're thinking right now. I just can't believe what I can't believe it actually

Jake get out of the hole sit down. I feel like if I really if we ask Jake his allergies He would pull out like a scroll that would just hit the ground and roll out for like 20 miles. Jake why don't you leave the hole? I don't know. Just step out of the hole. Just step out of the hole. Just step out of the hole. First second. Just take the hole.

Get out of this hole. The man with shaving cream allergy can't be in a hole. Jake come back in the hole. Come on back in Jake. We love you. You just need to take a time out of the hole Oh my god, what else do you learn? Give us the whole dogs cats shaving cream

Maybe chocolate I've never liked chocolate, but ice cream sometimes I get like red I mean, I eat like chocolate heavy things like ice cream sandwiches and Oreos are fine. It's not like full chocolate. I don't know what else. Realon tweet. Realon tweet. Grass or you look lying. Grass.

Eulogial lying. Bermuda grass. Technically that's golf. I feel like I can draw out of that one because I've know a lot golf course. Okay. That's what I can think of the top of my head. Yeah.

Not worms. Yeah. Yeah. That's what I can think of the top of my head. Yeah. Not worms. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Not worms. I don't know that. Yeah. The problem with worms is sometimes when you eat, when you eat a female worm, they have eggs. And then they can lay eggs in your stomach. And then you can get just worms in your poop for forever. That's, that's bullshit. I'm excited to try. I got. That was a lot of, that was a logic. I can't have you. Earthworms die in stomach acid. Thanks, when Jake said that was I was crying laughing watching. I found out once I got high in the face of shaving cream. I just got so itchy and red everywhere.

It was crazy. I love you. I have not used shaving cream since then. I love you. All right. You just dry shave. Yeah, it's taking electric razor and go like, all right, guys on trucks. My 94 year old Chevy grandpa has his entire life in his truck

Mostly in coffee cans. He also has every tool imaginable just in case you'll need it The coffee cans are for nails screws or other parts and of course nothing's labeled I remember one time opening up every single one to get a part and he looked at them and found it on the first try Yeah, I love it. No, that's such a classic grandpa. My grandpa had the same thing in his truck. It was like 1960 dots and I don't think they even make it anymore. That's just an old grandfather move. And he knew where everything was too.

It's just, it's like a filing cabinet for an old guy. Yeah, this grandfather rocks. Cause truck guys rock anyway, but to have just a like 50 coffee cans that just has your whole entire life in it, that guy rocks. My truck has gotten me through life so far. The song, if it wasn't for trucks, by Riley Green is very true.

The best moments in life happen in a Chevy Silverado when the adventures are limitless. That just sounds like an ad. Yeah, that was great. Wait, that was the whole thing? Yeah, oh, love that. Hey, that was great. Wait, that was the whole thing? Oh, love that. Hey, my buddy has a really nice truck and doesn't even back in.

Even in his own driveway. He is not a truck guy, right? Uh, no, because I think sometimes the guys that go out of their way to back in their truck so everybody will look at their truck. That's kind of anti-truck in itself. No, I disagree. Okay. I agree with you, Chris.

You got it back in the truck. What? Always at the back in the truck truck because then when you can load the truck, it's either load. That's true to your group from your garage or anywhere. Yeah. Yeah, I never even thought about that. You got to back it in the truck. I mean, when it's time to load something, then you can just back it in at that point. You don't know when you're going to have to load something because part of being a truck guy is going in somewhere and be like, Oh, we need to that. Yeah, but sometimes the load sneak up on you. What about What about Billy grocery store? Do you just front in because you're gonna load it in the back?

No, if you're pulling up to the grocery. Yeah, you got to if you park in a grocery store parking lot, okay That's you front in that's a good point because the front is our home Depot Home Depot is different you pull up put to the loading center. True afterwards yeah. All right. We'll check it out. That's true. Last one. Real question. Billy just said some really deep there. Did you guys catch that? He was like that's a good point because at a grocery store the front is the back. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Bax. Good point. Well, can

only a truck help with your golf game? Asking for a friend who's really struggling even though all he does is golf, thanks. Jake, is that you? Hey, talk us through the glove. Again, I tried to privacy with my firefests. So I've gone, I've gone into pro shops and asked for a righty glove and they've given me a glove on my, for my right hand, which is what left hand is used. So that was a mistake. I then took that glove, put it in my bag,

forgot about it. Showed up to Frankie's course. I don't even think I slept really. We recorded it till like 5.30 in the morning. I'm sorry. I'm not driving. I'm sorry for the golf course. I think you said in the video

that you got four and a half hours a sleep. For, yeah. That was also probably a lie. For work. I think a question. Did you get there got four and a half hours of sleep or yeah, that was also probably a lie for work I think quick question. Did you get there early enough? Did you use up to 5 30? You guys were yeah, hang no, I drove me home, I think. Oh, okay. Did you get to the golf course early enough to use the driving range? I did. I made sure I was up early enough to get the driving range driving range was closed. They were knowing the driving range, didn't get to warm up on no sleep. Pretty much was still doing the podcast at that point. And I would courage as grab to go about my back.

Yeah, you grabbed a glove and a nice plastic cup of Stella Blue, right? And accidentally grabbed the right hand to glove, which is for lefties. And when Frankie called me out on those two embarrass to admit it, so I tried to say I do this all the time But I don't and it was a tough look and then I proceeded to go out and shoot an eight and a seven on the first two holes There was an eight in an eight eight in eight. Sorry And I've just you know the roast has continued like I said I previously in my fire fest It's been bad programs and shambles the summer's coming to an end. I'm not being able to go off much anymore

And I I want to prove it to myself. I want to prove it to the WL's that I'm not as bad as as as looked You you are as bad as it's no you're not you're not you're not as bad. Oh You're not as bad hang it's just that every single time that you do it on camera. You're very very bad Yeah, I know I know very so do you think a truck would help? Probably yeah, there's only one way to find out. Yeah. I mean, you could, I mean, put your guy in a car with every can.

Yeah. Yeah, it's been bad. It's been bad, but that's fine. You'll figure it out. Yeah. Okay, it was funny when Hank stepped up to the tee with his right hand in the glove. And Frank, he was like, dude,

yeah, like what do you do? I always do that and Hank said, yeah, yeah, I do. For a second, I was like, maybe Hank just figured out a way to break off. Maybe that's the right hand to put it on Yeah, oh yeah, that was there was no getting out of that one Hank I just want you to get to a point where you could shoot a good number 18 six and five For these counting my count keeping track of these are sure you three eight 20 Are these counting my count keeping track of these are sure you three eight 20

That's not gonna be 69 I'll go 52 I think that's the name you ever got this hang just took his number. Oh, no chain 10, okay watching you Memes is one nine oh almost so close Memes is one. 16, 16, nine. Oh, almost so close.
