Today is Friday, September 13th and no one circles the wagons like the Buffalo Bills and to a got concussed So we were taping the weekend preview for the second half of the game. We saw it happen live It's bad. I really don't remember anyone having as bad of injury luck Concussion luck like to, it sucks so bad. Antonio Brown. Antonio Brown. Not bad. Now, I hope Tua's okay.

It was bad because the fingers happened again. And yeah, it just sucks. I don't really know what to say other than it sucks. He wasn't playing well up into it. We probably should talk about the game. The Bills look awesome. Yeah. We were saying it during the game. I know that this podcast gets accused of Josh Allen glazing. I don't

think there's a guy besides Patrick Mahomes that you would take over Josh Allen. Yeah, Josh Allen is really good though. The knock against him is he's not Patrick Mahomes. Correct. And he's lost tough games to Patrick Mahomes, some of which were on his defense entirely and not on him. But but he is he's very very good still Yeah, so don't worry about Josh Allen. He's going to be great this year again. I hope he stays healthy He's got he's playing with that giant glove on it. It's like the hamburger helper hand died on his on his wrist It was massive. So I don't think his left hand is healthy, but but he's like, you know what? I'm a gamer I'm gonna go out there. I'm gonna play he played awesome

Yeah, and he's played awesome in two games so far. And this was supposed to be kind of a reset year for the Bills. They don't have Stephon Diggs anymore. Gabe Davis is in Jacksonville, like all that stuff. He's still Josh Allen. That's what having a franchise quarterback looks like. On the other side, before two have got hurt, the Dolphins are still the Dolphins in the fact that they can't beat the Buffalo Bills. And I don't know, like usually we don't see this Dolphins performance until later in the season. Maybe they got it out of the way.

The good news is we're not going to call them frauds. Yeah, but they didn't, they, they did not look good. Yeah, they look bad. They did not look bad. They look terrible on defense. The offense didn not look good. Yeah, they look bad. He did not look bad They look terrible on defense The offense didn't look good the end of the first half was just crazy to me watching what McDaniel was doing with the clock He gave up. He gave up at the end the first half. He was he was playing for a field goal at that Originally, I thought he was just trying to run out the clock with three minutes left

Yeah, because I think three maybe three minutes 15 seconds went off the clock and they were down to like, I don't know, the 35 yard line. And it was like a full field drive. It's like, I don't even know. That's a, that's a long drive just to gain those 50 yards in general. Yeah. Not to mention that you have timeouts and it's the end of the half. Just very, very strange the way he was calling the end of that. Yeah. And to look, to look bad in the first half when he played first interception was not his fault He actually threw a perfect pass great passers didn't turn in time. Yeah second one I'm sure there was a miscommunication But he air mailed one over Robbie chosen's head and then the game was kind of over

When they went for it on fourth and to it like the 47 yard line and he got sacked and it was just like yeah This is the Bills are just better than the Dolphins I will stand with the Dolphins fans and say that the NFL fucked you by having to play the Bills are just better than the Dolphins. I will stand with the Dolphins fans and say that the NFL fucked you by having to play the Bills at a night game. You lose the advantage of the sun. Although it did look so hot and sweaty. It looked hot, it looked very humid.

Before the game, Tua looked like he had played a full game already. Yeah. He was just sweating his balls off. And it was, also I liked the Dolphins uniforms tonight. Love them. I liked the Dolphins uniform, the throwbacks and the throwback end zones.

Those are quality uniforms. Yeah. Very good prime time uniforms. Now for Tua, I am very glad that Tua got a contract this season. Yeah. Because now it takes all the financial reasons away from Tua for him to decide whether or not he wants to keep playing football. Yeah. So if he wants to keep playing football, it's not because he needs it for the money to set himself up for the rest of his life his kids up Whatever that case may be He doesn't have to think about that at all because he's set financially. Yeah, I don't know what's gonna happen But I would not be surprised if he was like I'm done playing football because what this is the third time that we've seen the fencing Reflex from him.

Yeah, it's bad. And so when he at least wear a guardian cap. I don't know if this would have helped here. Also we should mention it was to Mar Hamlin, which is a weird occurrence. Crazy that it was to his head and tomorrow Hamlin's chest. Yeah. Yeah, it was weird. But yeah, I agree with you.

I don't know what the future is, but this does feel like, and maybe it's because two of them happened in prime time, and that is just part of the psyche of it. We saw it twice in prime time and you just feels, like if it happens on a Sunday, your eyes are everywhere, you kind of miss it, oh, you see the replay, maybe, but it happened on prime time twice, and we're sitting here being like, is he okay? Like there's bigger things in football and I don't know, he can't make a decision right now

and I hope he keeps playing football, but it's scary the fact that he's been concussed this badly this many times. I think it's a fair point and you could say that if every game was played in primetime, there would be a lot more guys that would be concerned about it. Correct. Because we would have seen all the concussions that happened. Correct. that if every game was played in prime prime time there would be a lot more guys that would be concerned about correct as we Would have seen all the concussions happen and with to in that other prime time game Didn't he get like it was clear that he was concussed who's out on a stretcher Well, it's clear that he was concussed and he stayed in the game and then he got more concussed I think it was the week before he was oh, yeah, you're right. You might be right. Yeah

Yeah, so like we like that. There's been a lot of a lot of very like blatant in-your-face concussions. Yeah for Tua So yeah I'm just glad that he can make his decision about whether or not he wants to play and not have to worry about having to Play to make money. Yeah, but the bills are good. Yeah, the bills are still good bills are very good Yeah, and they did and again, it's it's impressive that they've done it At least through two weeks, obviously a very long season, but this was supposed to be a reset. They were underdogs tonight Josh Allen didn't have to throw the ball atonement the game the game script It's like if you look at his stats not like he lit it up. He threw 139 yards passing

But if you watch the game it was more because they were in such control Yeah Basically from the second quarter on that they could just run the ball and control the and James Cook had an awesome game three Touchdowns for James Cook was awesome. He was great. And the Dolphins defense looked very soft. Yeah. Yeah Okay The other story before we get to our weekend in preview Shannon Sharp. Yeah Shannon goes live on IG now, I guess we should set the table for people that don't know what we're talking about. Yeah on Wednesday afternoon, Shannon Sharp went live on Instagram and it was the sound of

what seemed to be a man and a woman engaged in a perfectly natural physical act, healthy physical act that thousands if not millions, if not billions of people do. And it was live for a couple minutes and then it turned off and everybody got to listen to Ankh having sex. Ankh has turned into Poppy. Yeah. And he, the grunts are what were something else. Did you think he wasn't going to grunt? Yeah. Oh, I had Shannon pegged as a grunter for me.

Yeah. Oh yeah. Yeah. He sounded like a Denver Broncos. He was like growling. Yeah, he was growling and grunting and naying. That's a passionate man. He still got it. Still got it. Still got it.

And again, I didn't think it was anything less. Yeah, cause those are sounds I don't know if I've ever heard. That's a stallion right there. Yeah. All things considered. I like to tell you, his instant reaction was to go hacked. Yeah, no, that just shows that whenever someone says they're hacked. They're not hacked. They just fucked up

I don't I still don't really understand how because it is a couple steps to go live Yeah, he did that So I listened to his podcast that he did last night with Ocho Cinco and his explanation was that he's never been live on Instagram before oh, he's never done it and He had his phone and he tossed his phone onto the bed and then he was having sex. Then his other phone was getting FaceTime calls, phone calls left and right while he was boning. Didn't pick those up, but he picked one up later and they said, hey, we can hear you.

You're having sex. And he was like, how? I have no idea how. And he went to his phone and he's been live on IG. So now I'm terrified. Now I'm scared that, but this is a ticking time bomb. You? I have no idea how. And he went to his phone and he's been live on IG. So now I'm terrified. Now I'm scared that this is a ticking time bomb. You have to have sex. Yeah, this is a ticking time bomb that I've got in my pocket.

And I would be caught doing way more embarrassing stuff than having sex. I do think it is like, he's only, he's old. So there's that where it's like he's old enough where it's like he could just accidentally have gone live But it is there's like multiple steps to going live on Instagram that it's not like you just like Dropped your phone and right suddenly went right like there's three to four clicks that have to be right and he does have a lot like a very, very popular show and it did get a lot of people talking about it. So there's a little bit of a Paul Pierce,

by the way. Yeah, he did that to himself. Well, no, no, Paul Pierce. No, Paul Pierce. His mistake was he didn't fuck. Right. He didn't even fuck. All he did was, yeah, but I think if you fuck that it was like Friday night he was having a couple drinks with some friends. Yeah, but then he got a fuck. Who happened to be strippers. Did you miss the part about perfectly normal, healthy adult behavior? You got a fuck. Right, he got fired.

He got fucked. Yeah. Paul Pierce did. Yeah. But his problem was he didn't have sex. He should have gone all the way to sex. If he had had sex he wouldn't have gotten fucked. Right.

Because that, like, if Shannon Sharp stayed with the I got hacked thing or I don't know, I felt bad for Paul Pierce. All things considered- Of course you did. That was your big takeaway. All things considered, him getting hacked- His Instagram Live was way funnier. The Instagram Live for Shannon Sharp actually

Makes him seem a lot cooler. Yeah, like I said still got it. Yeah still got it still got it man Fox and he's a passionate guy like I said, those are sounds I don't I'm not familiar with Yeah, this is why skip and Ernest and sleep in separate rooms. You might have to might have to rebuttal Oh my no, that's that's why they sleep in different bedrooms That would be funny though. Oh skip. He's just fucking no He's only wearing the Ezekiel Elliott Jersey Yes, skipping Ernestine doing a comparable video would just be skip like laying in bed with her like see we're in the same bed I bet you skip kissing lightly on the bed. He gets his ass eaten Bet you're kissing lightly on the lip. I bet he gets his ass eaten

Either way Shannon Sharp ruled like 24 hours of internet. Yeah, it was great. Yeah, I'm walking into skip Bayless's bedroom He's got his legs over his head.

I'm excited.

We got football. We got football. Be thankful for football. It's just like week one, you get all the jitters out. Week two, it's ready to go. We're ready to roll. Yeah, week one doesn't mean anything. Week one doesn't mean anything, unless you're one and oh. No, it doesn't mean anything. Then it means something. We have three games late this this week so we're gonna have the we're gonna have to really the the witching hour is gonna be they change that I think it's coming soon I thought they'd made like a whole

announcement I think they made an announcement but it might have been like starting weeks like six or something they might have been like get off our back announcement kind of thing we We know this sucks. Yeah. But we're still gonna do it. Yeah, all right, so let's hop into the games. We're gonna do our picks. We're gonna have a TD parlay for the people. Let's start with Saints of Cowboys.

America's Game of the Week. Cowboys are one and o in Tom Brady games. That's a fact. Yeah. Yeah. So Tom, old Tom's gonna to get another crack at it. I think he's probably taken some of this criticism to heart and he's going to try to improve. But the biggest winner actually in Tom Brady's debut is Tony Romo. Yes. Well, Greg Olsen, Greg Olsen, Greg Olsen, Greg Olsen, Greg Olsen, Greg Olsen, literally saw dollar signs.

Yeah. When Tom Brady had his week one Winner number two would be Tony Romo, because it doesn't seem like Tony Romo is that bad. No. I was thinking about it. What? Continue. Tom Brady should, Fox has a lot of money. If they were smart, they should just hire Max Kellerman

to be on Tom Brady's staff and just be like, Tom Brady's over the hill. He can't get it done. He can't get it done. He can't get it done as He can't get it done. He can't get it done as an announcer. Now, the one thing that was interesting, and it's not in defense of Tom Brady, but I don't understand why Fox hasn't fought harder for this.

Tom Brady is not allowed to do the pre-game interviews. Yes. Teams. Because he wants to be an owner, yeah. And they basically, his, I think Burkhart is who he's with. Yep. Was like, yeah, that's a big deal. It is a big deal, yeah.

That's a big deal not knowing what the teams are gonna wanna do, talking game plans with the coaches, all that stuff. It was also unlucky for Tom that he had to do a game where one quarterback was actually playing terribly in his very first game. If that game had been like week six or seven, because we wanna hear Tom talk about football naturally.

We want to hear Tom Brady be Tom Brady like he was in his living room, where he'd probably be like, this guy can't get it done. Yeah. But the fact it was his first game probably made it so much more harder for him to criticize a quarterback that was playing openly stinkily. Yes. Yes. Openly stinkily. Openly stinkily. I have a prediction for this game. Okay.

Well, not really a prediction because I'm for, for Saints and Cowboys. This might be a fraud bowl. Ooh. Because both teams look really good in week one. We don't know where the teams are playing against that bad. Probably. Well, I don't know if the Cowboys... Yeah, I think the Cowboys are going to win this game because they are the kings of September and October. Mike McCarthy in September, October is 71, 48 and three against the spread. Also Dennis Allen after a win, a straight up win is five 16 and two against the spread. Interesting. I though this game to me it's, it's really the Panthers didn't pressure Derek Carr. Derek Carr, who we like, under pressure

is a big drop off. They have those advanced stats like clean pocket versus under pressure. Yeah, of course, actually there's a couple guys who actually get better under pressure. I think Joe Burrow might be one of them. But he goes from 112.3 rating to 73.1 when pressured and the Cowboys defensive line is all about the pressure. They're gonna turn the heat up. Yeah, they're pretty, pretty excitable last week. They were getting after Deshaun. I have another stat for you.

Okay. So, Clint Kubiak. Yeah. Right? He's gonna be on the sideline again, we think. We think. We're not sure, but their offense is a lot different this year than it was last year. So they had 28 plays and the running

plays that use pre snap motion. Right. They got 137 yards on pre-stab motion runs and that's more than any of their other games in 2023. Ooh. So they're putting a new wrinkle there doing some new stuff. They're doing new stuff out there. I have a staff. Oh, okay. Hank's out of the week. I think Tom Brady is going to be fine. Oh, I think people it's going to be biased. Reverse Tony Roma where everyone was sucking Tony Roma's dicks so hard in the beginning that it made people flip. Whereas now because Tom Brady is so fresh, people are tearing him down so hard. Once he gets good, people are going to love him. Okay. It's kind of like Ryan Paul's making a really bad trade when he became GM of the bears and then everything

that he does after that. It's like, this guy's awesome. GM of the Bears. Genius move. And then everything that he does after that, it's like, this guy's awesome. He did the chase. The chase claypool was actually, I could make the argument that Ryan Paul's trading for chase claypool using a second round pick was the smartest trade he's ever made. Go on.

Because then it led to everyone else being like, this guy doesn't know what he's doing. And then he made all the other trades that have all been dynamite. Because everyone else thought that they were getting a Chase Claypool type trade. Correct. Yeah. They, PFT, I think that you don't like the Cowboys. You've hated the Cowboys your whole life.

I think you have to be a Cowboys fan on Sunday. Why is that? So Jake Ferguson is hurt. The Cowboys have a few different, he might play. They have a few different, uh, backup tight ends, but I did some deep diving into what they might do. And uh, Brian Schottenheimer, the offensive coordinator for the Cowboys said, you guys see the way we're using Hunter Lepke, Hunter Lepke, Hunter Lepke, former low man trophy winner, 2022 low man trophy. He said, I mean, Hunter Lepke does not get enough trophy, when he's 20, 22 low man trophy, he said, I mean, Hunter Lepke

does not get enough credit for what he does for our offense. I think he, I think is a steal. We were able to get him where we got him. He then revealed during the season opener that there was a quick toss sweep to the right that Lepke had not even practiced and made it work. One of the more physical players we have, this guy, he is physical, he loves contact, he's a low leverage player, and it's not just the initial strike, it's the ability to sustain and stay low with leverage and strain and knock people back. I think he's going to maybe play tight end if Jake Ferguson's out. He could, he could do it all.

He lined up a tight end a little bit against the Browns. So Hunter Lepke, I love him because he's a great fullback. I hate him for two reasons though one because he's a cowboy and two because he Demolished James Madison in the playoff. I think it was 2022 yeah, and he won the low man just absolutely destroyed us Yeah, so but I do I do like him as a fullback. Yeah, I respect his position I respect his craft. He is kind of like the way that he's described right there I would also describe him as a working man's Carson Steel. Mmm, Carson Steel's a little more flashy. Yeah He's got the hair going Hunter Lepke is just he's as North Dakota as they come

I might just bet Hunter Lepke to score a touchdown. I they probably won't even list it but I might do it I think it did he get a touchdown last year He might have but I think they're gonna line him up and tie down if Jake Ferguson Jake Ferguson is an important piece He is he's I've dubbed him and it's not biased, but I've dubbed his Barry Alvarez grandson I've dubbed him next up in the tight end community. Okay next year. Maybe this year. I think it should be this He'll be he'll be part of the Laportas Oh to adjust through another pick six yikes The laportas the Kelsey'sseys, the Kittles, these guys.

Part of the new breed. Like, hey, well, I mean, Kelsey, I guess, is an old breed, but still very, very good. But the guys in the tight end community were like, man, this guy is awesome. Yeah, he is good. He's a good player. I'll admit that.

I'll be unbiased when I evaluate tight ends and full backs. Yeah, so he'll be important. OK. Next up, we have Bucks at Lions. Baker was awesome, probably played the best of any quarterback in week one. I think the Bucks might be the best team in the NFL. Okay, here's the problem with the Bucks though.

They've got a lot of injuries very early. So they have a cluster injury at cornerback, they lost their starter, Zion McCollum, they lost their backup, Bryce Hall. They lost their safety, Antoine Winfield. They're signing guys off the street. They also lost some defensive line guys. I think this is gonna be a problem against a team that,

one, Lions showed the Jameson Williams, he's ready. Two, Amon Ross, St. Brown is one of those guys that I put in the category. If he has a bad game just bet everything the next game that he's going to be awesome because we've met him. We've had him on the show. He doesn't feel like the type of guy that takes a bad performance.

Obviously he does more than just catching. He blocks a lot and he's doing a lot of stuff. He's very physical. Right. But a performance where he doesn't catch the ball a lot or get a touchdown. I feel like he takes that very personally. Yeah, I would agree with that. He gets pissed off at himself and he's like, it's not happening again. I think you should have a huge game. And also the, I was being a little bit facetious about saying that the Bucs are the best team

in the NFL. I'm just saying that because they beat us week one. So they looked, they looked incredible. I can say to myself, we just lost the best team in football. It's okay. Yeah. The Bucs Indoors just never sits right with me No, I don't think I've ever bet on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to win an indoor game No, and the Lions are for real for real. Yeah, they are I actually think they didn't they didn't play a great game against the Rams and won that game I think they're gonna Dan Campbell's kind of in the Mon Rah st. Brown where it's like he if you give him some bad tape

He will use it and they will come out firing. So here's a fun stat Jared Goff our friend three and one against Todd Bulls defenses. Oh, I like over the course of his career I like that averages get some of yards passing he averages against TB 275 383 whoa 383 damn it feels like another Dome game for Jared. Yes. Jared loves the Dome.

Yes. Yes. Yeah, I like the line. I know the line has ticked up all the way to, I think, 7 and 1 half now. But if I had to pick this game, I would probably pick the Lions. Yeah. I'm also, week two is a big trap week, where you have to realize

that what you saw week one is going to change drastically to week two. Yeah, sometimes I just like to erase week one from my memory entirely. Yeah. Because week one doesn't mean anything. We can agree on that. It doesn't matter if you won, lost week one. Well, it matters if you won.

We're moving forward. If you're one and oh. We're moving forward. Because you can't start better than one and oh. We move forward. We don't look backwards. What happens every single year with how we follow, consume the NFL, we spend all off season talking about what these teams are going to look like, have our preconceived

notions, week one happens and then you throw them out all out the window and you say, oh yeah, it's just whatever happened in week one. Don't do that. Don't do that. I will probably do that, but don't do that. I know I'll do that, but don't do that. I could see Baker just loving Dan Campbell a lot too. Just get, he seems like, he seems like he would love to play for Dan. Baker's the best. Yeah. He really is.

He's just, I root so hard for him. Yeah, everyone counted him out. Yeah. That actually, with the whole Deshaun thing going on in Cleveland, like, Baker has never looked better before. Yeah. He's, how you like me now, that's what he's saying.

Seriously. Baker Mayfield. Seriously. Okay, next up, Colts at Packers. PFT, you already have told us that you've made a very large wager on the Colts. Biggest bet of the season. I know it's early, but so far biggest bet of the season on the Colts. I'm nervous for you. I took them at minus three, then the line moved to minus two and a half. And all the money's on the Colts. All the money's on the Colts, but- It's bad. This is strictly a bet against Malik Willis game. And so sometimes we need to remind ourselves that there's 21 other guys that play football on that team. Yeah. But I don't think that

there are. I don't think that there are 21 other guys. I think it's just an entire team of Malik Willis' this week. I feel like the Packers are going to find a way here. And it's, so I was thinking about it more. The Texans ran the ball very easily on the Colts. Josh Jacobs, it was funny when we were watching that Packers Eagles game, Josh Jacobs in the first half looked bad. And I kind of walked away from that game like Josh Jacobs, he's not good. I looked back at it. He had four yards on six carries in the first half and then he had 10 carries for 80 yards in the second half. So he can still play and I just think that Matt LaFleur is a good coach and he's going

to find a way. There's a difference between having Malik Willis come in at halftime and having Malik Willis have eight days getting ready and being like, hey Malik Willis, this is what we need you to do, because you're not good. Well, let me tell you a little step. And just try not to do the bad things, and we'll make it as simple as possible for you. Little fun fact, though, about that.

Malik Willis started three games for the Titans in 2022, and he didn't throw for 100 yards. But he did cover the spread twice. That's important. But this is just two and a half. Yeah. It's just two and a half. Which is scary because everyone's on the Colts and it went from three and a half to two and a half. Yeah. Yeah. Well, that's bad. Really when I put my biggest bet of the year on a team, that's a pretty good indication. That's probably also the square's play. Yeah. I just, I don't know. I just feel like I'm not going

to, I'm not going to bet it against you, but like I just, I feel like we're going to Sunday night, like how did the Packers win this game? I'll ride with you. Let's go. Anthony, I also am not a believer in Anthony Rich. I know people get mad at me for that. I, he has incredible play. Did you say it again? I want all the tools. I will say it again. I watched the tape. Yeah. There's a lot of wide open guys missed a lot of guys that fell down. A lot of wide open guys missed. A lot of easy throws missed. I think, it's three. It's back to three. So there you go.

Okay, nice, nice. It's three. Right? It's gonna make you feel better. Yeah, it's gonna make me feel better. Yeah. The Anthony Richardson, I get it. I've said this, Colts fans get upset.

I get why he's a project and why you would invest in that type of arm talent. It's just not there yet, at for me looking at it I don't think he's like a top five quarterback but I don't know but he but I guess the problem is he scores a shitload of fantasy points yep and he has the wow plays and then the rest of the game if you watch the rest of the game it's like what's going on here we should dive into that and see who the like the all time greats in terms of being awesome fantasy players, but not very

good actual football players. Yeah. Yeah. I want to know who's the goat in that conversation. Yes, someone tell us that. So I mean, Trent Williams or not Trent Williams, Richardson, Trent Richardson. I don't think he scored a lot of fans.

I think there was one season where he may have led the league in touchdown, or he had like a lot of touchdowns in one year. But they were all like two yard touchdowns. He did have a lot of fantasy. I think there was one season where he may have led the league in touchdown or he had like a lot of touchdowns in one year but they were all like two yard touchdowns. He did have a lot of those. Yeah for that year that might have been one of the all-time great fantasy seasons that did not correlate to football. To being a good football player. Yeah I mean it's got to be a quarterback it's a quarterback who can score touchdowns with his feet too. Yeah it's pretty big. Justin Fields actually that's that's the answer. That's the answer, yeah. Justin Fields was a very good fantasy quarterback last year and not a very good... He scored 11 touchdowns in 2012. Yeah. 950 yards.

That probably didn't lead to league, but it was a lot of touchdowns. It was a lot of touchdowns. Okay. Yeah, I just don't... I don't know. I don't know this game. This is a tough game. There's some tough games out there. What are you gonna... Oh, it's the Nip Man. What? It's not a home game. No, it's at Green Bay. Yeah's at Green Bay. Green Bay. Ah, Jets of Titans memes. How are we feeling? Ah, feeling all the way back. All the way back. All the way. That was great. Let's go. It's also dangerous though. Is that all the way back? Does does getting because if you had gotten 60% back,

I would think that the emotional crash if they lost this game wouldn't be as hard. If you're all the way back, we could have all the way out memes like we did the other day. Yeah, all the way out. I'm setting myself up for failure again. Maybe find a middle ground? You know what?

I love it memes. You just love hard. But the reason why I'm setting myself up, because I think this is the correct see where you're at as a team game. Got it. The best comment from Wednesday's episode, someone was like, what do you think's going through Max's

head that he's been called the craziest, most irrational fan and the craziest, most irrational fan's been sitting right next to him in the booth this whole time. Yeah, that's a good point. It was perfect. The thing is when Max loses, it's like what you see is what you get. I'm gonna let all my emotions out

and then I'll be able to just clear him, then I'll be clear headed. With memes, it just consumes him. Well, I- He becomes a loss after the game. I don't even think it would be quiet quitting because it was very loud how he quit. Yeah. Because we just, he becomes a loss. Yeah. I don't even think it would be quite quitting, because it was very loud how he quit. Yeah.

Because we just knew he wasn't here. It was, it was, yeah. It was so, so memes, you're all the way back. I'm worried about you for this game. I'm all the way back. This is, see where you're at as a team. Because obviously the 49ers, probably the best team in the NFL right now.

Titans just came up or the Bucks The title or the Titans defense the Titans defense is good that's what I'm worried about for you memes to Vandrey sweat is a monster in the middle of the field and if Aaron Rodgers, which I I said it after I watched that game his arm is still there, but his mobility is clearly limited Having a guy who's just coming up the middle constantly is Doesn't feel like a good thing for a 41 year old quarterback coming back from Achilles injury

Correct, but the there is a major key on the Titans defense that's returning this week mm-hmm, and that's Jamal Adams Oh, OK. So that means guys are going to be open. Blitz boy. So Jamal Adams still in the league. Still in the league on the Titans. That's how I found out he was still playing. Yep.

You guys did. You fleeced the Seahawks. Oh, yeah. Hard to say. I guess you feathered them. But yeah, that was a big, big trade for you guys. Who did you get for that? I believe it's Garrett Wilson and Elijah Veratucker.

Two first round picks. Okay. So what's the latest on Hassan Reddick? He's not coming back. Have they talked? They have not talked. They have both dug in. He does not care about money? Yeah, it's kind of weird. Admirable. I said it earlier, but Hassan Reddick, yeah, he's losing $800,000 a game. He's gaining our respect, which is worth $0. Yeah. That's pretty much what's happening.

Well, I guess he could do like, maybe he could start doing some commercials. Sure. Oh no. Yeah. Yeah. What was the oh no? Two's can cussed. Who?

Tua. Tua? Oh no. Wait, are you ahead of us? Are you way ahead of us? I can't, I'm weird of us. Yeah, he's weird of us. That fucking sucks for Tua oh no wait are you ahead of us? Are you way ahead of us? I can't yeah, he's here Oh that fucking sucks for Tua. Yeah Like that was another bad one Damnit see what happened. I don't like what they should know. I just got crunched was that

It was tomorrow That would be a good talking point. All right. Praise for Tua. Yeah. Well, you've heard us talk about it at the beginning of the show. That just happened live. That's a peek into how we tape these things.

Okay. We'll talk. We've already talked about it, but Tavandre Sweat, can I go back to him real quick? Wait, what were you saying, memes, about Hassan Reddick? We were saying that he's got our respect, which is worth nothing. Yeah, no, the Hasan Reddick thing doesn't make any sense. Okay. He's just losing more and more money every single day.

They are never getting back. What about our respect? The respect is good. Okay. But it just... Zero dollars worth. Zero dollars. It might be negative money from us.

To get... Yeah,'re like branding him if we respect you a lot that probably is people will be like oh, that's ironic I feel like this is a guy that Aaron Rodgers has to talk to Aaron Rodgers could could Get on the same with wavelength as a guy that doesn't need money. Yeah, I think somebody somebody needs to talk to him Somebody I think he just is like I'm fine But he owes over five million dollars is this bad leadership by all he doesn't owe it Are you being fine? Do I know that just doesn't get paid it? No, he I think he oh he got fine I think what happens is when you sign the new contract, it's non-negotiable like that money gets taken out. Got it Yeah, so I think he owes money. But yet I would say it might be bad leadership on Aaron Rodgers part. Yeah, I would say supposed to lead the team

Hasn't talked to him guys a no-show step up You need some guys to make plays on defense gotta step up someone needs to talk to him Someone needs to talk to him. You should talk to him memes reach out to him Hit him up on DM him right now and be like hey, man, Do you need to talk? A meme's from Pardon My Take. I cried on Tuesday. Can you please hit me up? I'd love to talk. All right.

I'll do it right now. Yes. All right, here we go. Tefondre Sweat, by the way. Baldi tried to nickname him T-Pain. OK. And he corrected me and was like, hey Baldi, just so you know, my nickname is Meatloaf.

And it has been for my whole life That's a good nickname. It's I mean he's a big boy. I'd say two of our History's all-time greatest singers meatloaf T pain and meatloaf yes, they go hand in hand Yeah, they should they should collab together um I think meatloaf might be dead. He is dead confirmed dead. Yeah, I Don't know where will levis' head is at, because that Brian Callahan quote was interesting. He said, if we'd punted on first and 10 every time, we might have won the game.

Yeah, and he's not wrong. Although we did block a punt. Could we run those stats? We blocked a punt. You might have blocked four punts. Yeah, that's probably wrong. But yeah, now Brian Callahan did say that his mentals are in a good spot.

I just think this is gonna be Titans running the ball and playing Titans football and playing defense and mucking it up as much as possible. And if you get three and a half, I'd take them. This is actually a perfect example of something that happens to every single rookie head coach, which is they say something that's true and that wasn't meant to cause harm.

And then when they see it written down online, then they get asked a bunch of questions about it. And they're like, shit, now I'll just never say anything to you guys. Yeah. So congratulations to Cal-An for getting out of the way after one week. Yes.

Good job. It takes coaches sometimes six, seven weeks to get to that point. Now he's just reached the spot where he's like, I will not say another word that is remotely interesting to get to that point. Now, he's just reached the spot where he's like, I will not say another word that is remotely interesting to you guys. Yes, yes. All right, Niners at Vikings.

I was thinking about this. The Niners defense was flying around on Fred Warner. Fred Warner. He's incredible. Fred Warner might be one of the, I'd say probably top 10 player in the NFL when he's actually on the field. I'd say probably top 10 player in the NFL when he's actually on the field.

I'd agree with you. Yeah. And it made me think like back to last year's Niners and I kind of memory hold it because he was used as a scapegoat, but that Niners defense hated Steve Wilkes. Remember all the comments and like Bosa saying that they're just not playing the right defense and there was the comments that he was a scapegoat after the Super Bowl and all this stuff. I feel like they got their swagger back because they hired a guy from within, Nick Sorensen, who was there for D'Amico.

So he knows the Niner way. I think the Niners defense maybe has their swagger back. It did feel like they were playing like they had played when they had Robert Salah and D'Amico Ryan's as their defensive coordinator. Yeah, yeah. They looked really, really good against the Jets. And they know Sam Darnold. And they know. So Sam Darnold knows the 49ers. But he knows Steve Wilkes 49ers. He knows Steve's, but he knows the personnel. He knows the personnel, but he doesn't know he saw someone not use the personnel correctly

What is a bigger advantage in football one guy knowing 11 guys or 11 guys knowing one guy? I think it's 11 guys knowing one you think so. Yeah, I don't know. I think it's 11 guys knowing I think I also think that Kevin O'Connell we fucked up when we did our coaches draft because Kevin O'Connell fell very very far He's a very good. I think he's much better than we gave him credit for. I agree. And I think that every quarterback should love playing for him. Yeah, I agree.

I just, I thought the Niners lost in Minnesota last year. It was like the Brock Purdy concussions. It was after one of the concussions, it was a weird game. I think it was a Monday night game. They were seven point favorites. Maybe a little revenge, I don't know. I like. Oh, Skyler Thompson's in. I like the Vikings to cover, but I like the Niners to win. Okay.

Okay. I listen. I'm not going to disagree with you. It's not one of my picks. I also like the entire narrative of Christian McCaffrey being a system running back. Yeah. Let's keep that up. Trade them. Because it does, it reminds you of some of the all-star no name guys that played really well for Kyle's dad Yeah, where they just put a different guy and after every four weeks They'd rotate a new guy you'd never heard of and you have 120 yards on the ground or landis Gary or land Yeah, yeah, that one of them smaller guy. I can't remember Mike Anderson Mike Anderson Well, he was he was wasn't he part of the mile-high salute Mike Anderson

He might have been. I want to say Mike. Yeah, Orlando's Gary did play for the Broncos right after they won the Super Bowl. Yeah, they had so many of those guys. Mike Anderson. Ruben Drones. Ruben Drones.

Yeah. Wait, let me see. Football Mike Anderson. Think he was on the Ravens for a little bit? Mike Anderson. Yeah, Mike Anderson was. I think he started the mile highute because he was a Marine. But I thought the Mile High Salute goes back to like-

I thought so too, but I'm pretty sure- To Ed McCaffrey. Mike Anderson was in the Marines. Yep. So, I don't know. Let's see. You want to- We got to figure this out, yeah.

Hank, say something. No, Hank just rolled his eyes because he's bored with this line of conversation. Maybe it was just Mike. All right. So yeah, Terrell Davis did start the mile high salute. Mike Anderson had just meant more because he was a marine. I just remember when Mike Anderson would do it and people were like, dude, he actually was a marine. It hit different when Mike Anderson hit it. Yeah. He was actually saluting. Let's see. Terrell Davis reveals. Oh, it's a video. I'm not going to watch it. What game are we talking about? That was my Ohio salute talk.

That what we were talking about the Niners and the Viles. Oh, yeah, yeah. Yeah, because we were talking about the old school Mike Shanahan running back system where it was just, we do a zone system. If you can make one cut and then run very fast, hold the ball, don't fumble the ball, then you'll get a hundred yards.

Yeah. Seahawks and Patriots, Henry. Yes. You will be golfing on Sunday. I will not be. Oh, next Sunday. If no. Oh, maybe. Yeah. Can I? Sure. You turn off whenever you want. Hank, if you feel like it's a good use of your time to golf during NFL. Ryan Whitney and Paul isissonnette, friends of the program. Great friends of the program.

Ryan Whitney, number two all time. Number two all time. And guess appearances, I believe. Might be one. I think he might be one. I think he might be one too. Or I think it's Bortles. Bortles is one. Okay. But he hit me up. He's going to be in Tower for Surviving Marshal. He said he's trying to find some golf I said I could maybe help out but I'll have to ask the boss men. Okay So yes, okay, but this Sunday don't like football. I'll be locked on and The the Patriots and Jets play Thursday night. Exactly. So you and memes primetime. Exactly I got a mayor's bet for that one. Yeah, how do you feel about this game? Exactly. I got a mayor's bet for that one. Yeah. How do you feel about this game?

I'm excited. Have you thought about this game? That should have been the that should have been my first question Have you thought about did you know you were playing the Seahawks? Yes. Have you thought about playing the Seahawks? Not that much. Okay So, how do you feel the little bit that you have thought about it? How have you thought about it? I'm Excited for this game. I'm a little bit confused I mean the Dolphins are losing the Jets are ass like I obviously went into the season expecting to be you know ass ass bottom of the league rooting for you know just looking at the lottery pick not lottery pick it's NFL yeah but you got it you you're new to the draft rooting for a high traffic. Yeah, it's seven rounds. We're one to know now The AFC East is ass ass bills. Well, maybe not ass. Well, the bills are ass Well, I mean, it's I mean the bills aren't asked the Jets are ass and I don't know if the Jets are ass yet

I think we have to wait you remember when we talked about not putting too much stock Yeah One the Jets played the Niners Jets might be the perfect perfect case for not putting too much stock in week one. The Jets played the Niners. The Jets might be the perfect, perfect case for not putting too much stock in week one. Yeah, I'd like to see the Jets play someone other than the 49ers. I'm excited for this game. If the Patriots win, I'll probably be borderline all in.

If they lose, I'll probably be going back to just, you know. Golfing. No, I'm not. I mean, if you guys were good, it'd be nice to have Judod on the team still, huh? Yeah. Your defense is good. What does all in mean?

Yeah, what does all in look like? Yeah. And does it mean locked in on Sundays? Excited for games? Yes. Like fired up on the team. I'll tell you exactly what all in means for Hank. It means that he will watch every Patriots game

until they lose. Yeah. I was thinking the same thing. And then he's all out. If you're all in, like a loss. If we're all in, we're going for 10 wins. All in means we're fighting, scratching, clawing for 10 wins. No, all in, you're upset about losses.

I don't see a scenario this entire year. Until like your fight actually in December, like every game is a playoff game, you won't care when this team loses. I want to encourage this behavior though from Hank. So if you win this weekend, you're all in. I just don't believe him. Look at his face.

I can't even really see it. It's hard. Well, I went through this whole off season of just preparing. He's all out. You're excited for a football season where you didn't really care about your team. All right, so if you win this weekend and then you beat the Jets. And then you beat the Jets, you're 3-0, you're all in. Answer the question. All right, this is you win this weekend, and then you beat the yet look at them And then you beat the Jets your 3-0 you're all in it's all answer the question all right This is this answer. We hate her Hank. This is probably hater. Hey, this is probably hater. Hank hand up hater Hank

As much as I want the Patriots win. I just want to be better than the Jets and the Dolphins, okay? That's very like that that that that gets me going I thought you were gonna say commanders no no I thought you were gonna say commanders. No. No. I thought you were gonna say you wanted to be better. No, because if Drake May was playing, then it'd be like I want to be better than the commanders and the Bears, but that's not really, that doesn't really matter in this scenario. Yeah, you just want to be better than at least two teams in your division. I do love- With the most annoying fan bases, especially in this office and maybe the control booth.

The rivalry that we have cooking right now is I'm just tickled watching. Cause I have it with Max. I own Max. That's not what the rivalry I was talking about. And I would love to have me. No, that's not the rivalry I was talking about. Beach and the Superbowl. The rivalry I'm talking about is we've been doing this podcast for eight plus years now. We're a football podcast. First and foremost, our fans are football guys. They love football. They're diehard football fans. The rivalry of Hank not really caring about football verse our fans is so funny to me. The Kent State Pittsburgh people don't forget being all in

all out on week two of the NFL season. It's great. Be yourself. Yeah, I always have been. I always will be. I like you like clarifying that you if you can if the Patriots aren't good, as long as you can be better than the Dolphins and the Jets, you will get satisfaction. That's funny to me. I don't think that's an honest answer. Hank isn't going to celebrate that hard if they win. But I actually think you celebrate Jets losses harder than you celebrate Patriots wins this year. Yeah, that's kind of what I'm saying. I mean, I have listened guilty as charged when it comes to the Packers losing in the playoffs. Like that's a fact. If the Bears stink, which they have for a

long time. Uh, yeah, I get a lot of satisfaction. Like I get some sick satisfaction about the fact that I have six Superbowls. I have all the championships. I've kept the light. I've led the team out of the tunnel and we earn you rang a. I've kept the light. I've led the team out of the tunnel. No, you turned, you rang a bell. I kept the light. Where is it? Do you have it? Is it on right now? So they didn't let you keep it? No, but I kept it when it was there, when I was there. When I was there, I made sure that I kept it. And then we have these Jets, we have these Dolphins fans that are just

living and dying with every play, every snap, every game. You're talking about football fans. To be better than them would just would be It would be nice Hank wants to be better than the people that care about their teams. Yeah, yeah, I get it Yeah, that's that's hater Hank and and and I know people are gonna get mad hearing this but it is what it is That's just how I feel cuz you're like I just show up and they win and I don't even do anything and it's awesome And you put your heart and soul into your teams and you you study you read articles about them during the week you know exactly what's gonna happen you know everybody's number even the offensive linemen even the backup D line that they switch in and out of the games and you care so

much and then they lose and I don't have to deal with that cuz I'm a winner yeah yeah you're such a good at being an asshole I was just gonna say you're so good at being an asshole yeah I'm just gonna say you're so good at being Yeah, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I don't want no no you have to like go like it's good for your brain. It's great. What you're doing right now is great for your brand writing the fucking work. Yeah, you know what he is right? He's a meat shield for us. No, it's great. Hank is spoiled. No shit. You're so spoiled. Yeah. Yeah. City of Champions. What are you talking about? So spoiled. Um, okay. As for this game, I, the Seahawks played so bad in that first half

against the Broncos and I think their defense is good. Mike McDonald is a, I'm, I mean, he was a good defensive coordinator. I think he's going to be a really good head coach. I do think that this is one of those games that the Patriots shocked everyone against the Bengals. This is a harder game because the Seahawks probably have a better game plan and can run the ball. Yeah. When a team that's not that good but feisty starts to think that they're very good, that's when they're a good time to bet against those guys. And the Seahawks shut down the Broncos' run game. So if you take out Bo Nicks scrambles,

the Broncos ran for 3.2 yards 20 rushes for 64 yards the Patriots need to run the ball to be able to control this game how they want to control it I think the Seahawks defensive lines up for the challenge and the Seahawks probably aren't gonna get to first half safeties I don't know. I guess is I actually Maybe not. I'm not gonna rule that out with the way those things happen and like calling a play action play in the end zone needs blocking. They might be the safety bet every single week. Yeah, so I thought more about it and I think the perfect, perfect thing to do for safety

instead of two points, which we agree is not enough points for safety. Correct. Give the ball to the offense on the one yard line. To the other team, give it to them on the one yard line. So if you get tackled in your own end zone, it's a turnover, the other team gets the ball on the one. I think that's too much. On the five yard line?

I was saying the 20. No. Red zone. Start of the red zone. Is it worse you get three? Because I want it to be worth essentially five points. But I want the other team to have to do something else with it. I wonder what the someone has a nerd stat where

like if you start at this yard line, your expected points are this. Yeah, let me see. It's probably around the 25 or something. But OK, I'm ready for that. Yeah, I would like to say also the Seahawks are not going to have Marshawn Lynch giving or McDonald

Massage on the side. Yeah Okay, next game Pft yes Giants commanders. Okay. This is the maybe the game of the week I'm surprised that we don't have Tom Brady in the booth for this one I'll give you some good news. If you're a commander's fan, okay booth for this one. I'll give you some good news if you're a Commander's fan. Okay. Manuel Forbes is out. Oh, that is good. And he might go on IR. But how bad is his backup to lose the job to Manuel Forbes? I don't think it's not, it's not necessarily, Manuel Forbes was better than the backup. I think it was, he was drafted off.

We have to play Manuel Forbes to see if he can be good before we make a decision about him. Got it. So he's got a thumb injury. And you can't play football with a bad thumb. Yeah. So he's out. Well, he couldn't play football with a good thumb. Maybe he might be better than the injured thumb. Yeah. I think it's a good thing that he's not playing.

I am scared of the Giants, because the Giants always figure out a way to beat the commanders, even when they're bad. I'm scared for you, because I think the commander's defense might be one of the worst, if not the worst. I think they might be the worst. Watching last week against the Bucs, it was a nightmare. There was no point in even trying to play.

It would be better if you just let them score immediately when they had the ball. Yeah, this is a true ass bowl, where the team who loses this game, especially if they lose it significantly, they're truly ass. I'm gonna put the done chain on the loser, even if it's me. If the commanders lose this game, especially if they lose it significantly, they're truly ass. I'm going to put the dun chain on the loser, even if it's me. If the commanders lose this game, the dun chain goes.

Well, a loss for you is different than a loss to the Giants. A loss for you, you still have Jayden Daniels and you're like, we're rebuilding. A loss to the Giants, you're like, we thought we'd be bad, but we're worse. Yeah, we're worse than we thought we were going to be. And god damn it, that Giants, I don't know why they allowed them to do hard knocks, but that clip is just going to live forever. Where they were talking about, I think it was one of the Maras asking the GM, like, what are we going to do? What's our identity without Saquon? Yeah.

Like, we're going to go all in on Daniel Jones. When he said, he said literally, I'm going to lose sleep if this guy goes to Philly. Yeah. And then he said, the GM said, we're going to build up our offensive line and say, this is the year, Daniel. Yeah. Yeah. It's not a good time to be a Giants fan. It's especially not a good time to be Daniel Jones because he's already starting up with

the only people that matter, the people in this room. Those are the only ones I listen to. That's early. And maybe the worst sign for Daniel Jones was when Brian Dable announced that he was the starting quarterback this week. That's not good for your starting quarterback. Yeah. At the beginning of week one to have your head coach clarify for the media that you're starting. Yeah, you're the starter. We,

they just paid you a fuck load of money. Everyone thought you were the starter and Brian Dable being like, we're going to give the ball to Daniel this weekend. No one asked. No one asked, but he is. He's starting to starter. Uh, so you think you're gonna win? I don't wanna... You don't wanna pick because I don't want... I don't wanna pick because I would like to win so that way I can at least say we're not the worst team in the division. But the Giants have a way of beating our ass. Yeah. But Jaden Daniel's rookie of the week. Rookie of the week. First of many to come. That's huge. Okay. Chargers the Panthers. I so badly

want to bet the Panthers, but I can't because it's Harbaugh, but I want to because I feel like I'm just, I'm going to chase that all year. I'm not going to. I'm not going to. I might. Did you see? I might, I might. Well, not necessarily just the Harbaugh effect, but also the Panthers effect. The Panthers the Panthers effect the Panthers are so bad The Panthers are so bad. Good Hank. Go ahead. How bad are they? How bad are they? Talk like a game show the Panthers are so bad. How bad are they they did a 9-eleven? memorial post on Instagram and some of the comments are memorial post on Instagram and some of the comments are as follows. This team makes me wish I was on those planes. I won't forget how bad, or no, our

situation is worse than theirs. Saddam Hussein would be a better defensive coordinator. This post is still not safe. Every Sunday feels like I'm reliving 9-11. Our tower has been collapsing since 2017. Never forget 9-8 when they lost the Saints. Sir, a second Saints wide receiver has hit the end zone. You're so bad that your own fans are making 9-11 jokes in your comments section. That's bad. You know what's worse? That's as low as it gets. What's worse than 9-11, big cat? What? When Bryce Young goes 9-30. When that's his complete. Yes. Yes. I,

I, uh, I'm going to take the Chargers because I think they're just going to play man football. We also have the Chargers, oh, oh, reminder for next week. They're staying out East. Okay. That's good to know. They're staying out East. Uh, and Jim Harbaugh say there's no reason why we can't have some fun. Bring the board games and snacks. There's no way they're going to have fun. That's fun. We also hadn't. What kind of board games do you think that that Harbaugh plays? See guess who guy I don't know I feel like he's just a straight-up chess or checkers I think he's checkers you think checkers I think he might be a risk guy the games that taken like three days everybody just gets bored and quits

Yeah, and then he wins every time. Yeah. We also had an all-time Jim Harbaugh quote. He said, speaking about coaching, it was about five or six years ago, my brother and I and dad were talking football, talking, and my brother said, hey dad, how long do you go in coaching? How long do you coach in this game? And he said, and I never forget it, you go as long do you go in coaching? How long do you coach in this game? And he said, and

I never forget it, you go as long as you possibly can. You go and you coach till you cannot step on the field one more time, till you can't endure one more practice or put one more game plan together. And when you come to that point, you coach for two more years. I love that. That's a great quote. You play football, you coach football, then you die. You have to be so sick of coaching And then you still do two more years of service. Yeah, I respect that I respect that I need to know where they're staying out East too. I can see Harbaugh taking them on a tour like a history tour They're probably just what's the West Virginia place? The Greenbrier. Yeah, they're probably they're probably just staying there, right?

I could see him going on like a Civil War battlefield tour. Staying East. Chargers staying East. Still stay in Charlotte. OK. Kind of boring. Yeah, pretty boring. That's a boring answer. All right.

I want to say that Jaden Daniels, he did win the Rookie of the Week. I think Joe Alt should have won it. Joe Alt was incredible. That will never happen. And I'm going to take the stand for offensive lineman, because an offensive lineman will never win an award like that and they should. Joe Alton or Sean Slater on both sides of Herbert that's that's Harbaugh's wet dream. Yeah.

He just knows like they can do what they want to do and they're gonna shove it down the Panthers throw. Yeah I think that's gonna happen and the Panthers have their best defense player maybe out for the year. Yeah. So I think it might get worse before it gets better. It couldn't be a more different vibes team, game between the two teams. Like the Panthers vibes are as low as low gets and the Chargers are like the new regime, going from Brandon Staley to Jim Harbaugh

has to be just a complete shock to the system in a great way. You can't get different than these two teams, organizations right now. Yeah. Very optimistic in LA right now. Yeah. Okay. Next up Browns and Jaguars speaking of bad vibes.

Everyone hates Sean Watson. That was one of my notes. David Nujoku is out for the game. And little quiz for you. When was the Sean Watson's last 300 yard game? His last 300 yard. He had one or two decent games last year, but I don't think he threw for 300. So I'm going to go back a couple years and say 2021. So partial credit, yes, because it happened in 2021.

It was a 2020 season. So it was January 2021. That's why I said 2021. Yeah. But that is a long time. That's a very long time. It's a long time. He used to be so good.

He used to be incredible. So I don't... He had that one season where he carried the Texans and was out of this world good. I don't know what happened. Well... Well, obviously a lot of stuff happened. Yeah, we know I don't know what happened. Well, well, obviously a lot of stuff happened. We do know what happened. But there's some, there's some stuff where physically he doesn't even look the same. I think he just doesn't like football anymore. He's going to, he's going to

quit on this season or the Texans, or sorry, the Browns will find a way out of this. Something's going to happen. He was, he used to be so good. And last Sunday, he got sacked six times. Guess how many of those sacks were on the offensive line by pro football focus? One, zero, zero. They were all his fault. They were all quarterback sacks. Damn. And then there was a clip that went around of, of one of his linemen, not wanting Deshaun to help him up. Did you see that? Yeah. One of the linemen were on the ground after the play. Deshaun went up to him, stuck his hand out. The lineman batted his hand away and said, no, I can do it. He just doesn't want Deshaun touching

him. Right. It leads to bad things. Yes. And Deshaun Watson, yeah, you don't want to run. I'm just looking it up right now. I don't know where that hand's been. Probably. No, it's not his hands. I think his hand is probably. Yeah, no, he's in a few places. Yeah, no, it's not his hands. I think his hand is probably. Yeah, no, he's went a few places. Yeah, yeah, not a good guy. Yeah, that 2020 season, he threw for 4,800 yards, 33 touchdowns, seven interceptions. It's crazy. Pretty damn good.

You could definitely make the case at that point that Deshaun Watson was a top five quarterback. Yeah. And since that season, I know that he's been injured a bunch. He has not thrown for over 1,500 yards. Yeah. Okay. So I also, this game to me is I love that we get to watch every game and see how every game flows because the Jaguars should have beaten the Dolphins. And I think you're getting them at a little bit of a price here because they lost That game was the Jaguars are winning that game at TN doesn't fumble. They go up 24-7 that game's over Yeah, this is it goes completely south on them, but I didn't walk away being like man. The Jaguars are bad

No, they did some funky shit in the second half. They did some very Jaguars. They panicked Yeah, they did panic after the turnover. I think that they looked good enough in the first half, but are the Dolphins good? So when they look good against the Dolphins, are we counting that as a good? The Bills really good. Bills might be really good. Yeah. So I do also like the Jaguars in this game. Yeah. Okay. Raiders at Ravens. I'll say this. This is one time. Actually, Jake, he should still do this for us. I didn't know this. Maybe no one knew this. Alexander Madison's wife went into labor before the game on Sunday. He scored a touchdown. Yeah, we did not know that. But wait, when was the baby born? That night. So after the game. But he had, oh my God, my wife's in labor. Yeah, technically,

this would be the first baby. This is the is baby bump. Because our theory is that everybody else in the locker room is pumped for the guy. Especially if they're a new dad. That's their first kid. So if he had the baby after the game, then this week it's all congrats on the baby. I'm so happy that you got a baby. Let's give you the rock.

Oh, let me see the baby. You got dad's strength now. What'd you name the baby? Congrats on the sex. Yeah, let me kiss the baby. Yeah. All that shit. Is it kiss the baby bet? Yeah, kiss the baby? Congrats on the sex. Yeah. Let me kiss the baby. Yeah. All that shit. Did you kiss the baby bet? Yeah. Kiss the baby bet. I do think the Ravens though are going to play better than they did. It's crazy. We walk away and the Chiefs win that

game and it really was a couple inches or an inch on Isaiah Likely's foot. Yeah. Because Harbaugh is going to go for two. So there's a reasonable way that the Ravens win that game if his foot is in bounds, and we think about it completely different, and we're like, holy shit, what a gutsy performance from Lamar. The Ravens are still that team, they just didn't have the result, week one.

I think they are going to beat the Raiders. Yeah, I think they're gonna spank him. Yeah, and Antonio Pierce, we like you, but god damn, that was the dumbest decision ever. The punt was, it looks even worse, like with the light of day. After a couple of days to think about it,

I've been thinking about that punt all week. And it just makes zero sense at all. And as he's a new coach, he does not have a guy that's giving him advice on analytics. That much is clear, because if he did, that person probably resigned, because you're not being listened to at all in that case. But it was really, really bad.

And he should get somebody whose job is just to stand next to him, be like, use a time out here, go forward here. That's the job. Get a nerd. Very simple. Find a nerd in Las Vegas. Just find anyone with glasses on.

Yeah, maybe David Blaine. He could nerd in Las Vegas. Just find anyone with glasses on. Yeah, maybe like David Blaine. He could probably figure it out. Anybody in Las Vegas that is smart, that likes numbers. Like David Blaine could absolutely bend time. Yes, have that person stand next to you and he's only allowed to say like five words. He doesn't have to talk. He can just have a mat that's in front of him with five different options for buttons. And he pushes those and then you look at the iPad, then you do that thing. He should actually make five different options for buttons. And he pushes those. And then you look at the iPad.

Then you do that thing. He should actually make it even simpler for him. It should be like when you go to Fogaday Chow, and you have the coin that you flip over when you want meat or when you want to stop eating. He should just have a coin. And the guy should just hand him like, hey, red side up. Red side up, don't.

Punt. Green side up, go. That's as simple as it could be. What was the chess scandal from a while ago? The anal beads? The anal beads. Yeah, yeah. The vibrating anal beads.

Yeah. When I hit those, that should stimulate you to go for it. Yes, yes, go for it. So I don't know if this is a record or not. I think it might be the first time. Do we have a noise for weird stat alert? Yeah, Hank. Weird stat alert.

Hit it on the soundboard, please. Nice. OK, so if Antonio Pierce and the Raiders lose this week to the Ravens, I think he might become the first head coach in NFL history to lose back-to-back games against brothers. Oh. Oh.

I can't think who else it could have been. Well, it could have been the Harbaugh brothers the Harbaugh brothers or Where they have they ever but it? Rob Ryan was never an interim coach right? Oh, man. I don't think he was I wish he I would have bet the fuck out of him if he was Yeah Fuck we got to find out if that's true. I think it might be true The double brother loss.

The double brother loss. Never been done before. He's been just bodied by the Harbaughs. Now the other question would be, has a team ever played against two brothers in back to back weeks? Probably. Because they're probably already making history.

Yeah, probably. It's brother awareness month. Was there ever a time where the Harbaughs played each other and then the next week, the losing Harbaugh made a terrible mistake and beat himself So got beat by a Harbaugh back to buy himself. Yeah I don't know cuz like did Jim Harbaugh ever lose to John Harbaugh then also lose to John Harbaugh or Jim Harbaugh Well, Jim Harbaugh lost to John Harbaugh in the Super Bowl, right? But I'm saying then

Yourself, what do you do week one after that? I don't know that he might have beat himself might have beaten himself Okay, that's a good stat good weird stat afternoon slate three games Rams at Cardinals Rams injuries are bad 2022 vibes very bad Pooka Niku out and also their line their entire line Their line is probably like Pooka Niku is the name everybody knows, but their line all being injured probably has a bigger impact. They're signing guys off the street. Off the street? Off the street.

Like homeless people? Off the street. They're signing guys off the street. That's concerning. Yes. I just love that saying. Off the street. So I don't know.

I can't trust the Cardinals defense. Sean McVeigh does own the Cardinals. So we should at least note that. Yeah. As part of our trio in the NFC West, I just feel like the Cardinals are healthier. Well, they know they're healthier. And Kyler might be able to get something going. Yeah, when is the double XP weekend?

October something, right? So we're way too early for that. We gotta wait on that. And Marvin Harrison Jr. He will, welcome to the NFL, Marvin Harrison Jr. I think that's gonna happen this week. Yeah, well after what happened last week, they can't target him any less.

Correct. They were saving him for this game. Correct. I feel like maybe the Cardinals were saying the Bills really good team, Buffalo tough environment to play in. They're gonna sacrifice somebody to the pit before the game. I feel like maybe the Cardinals were saying the Bills, really good team, Buffalo, tough environment to play in. They're going to sacrifice somebody to the pit before the game, probably lose that game

anyways. But divisional game, now let's actually try to win. And let's throw the ball to Marvin Harrison Jr. a couple times. Yes, yes, agreed. Steelers or Broncos? I'm mad about this game. Why? Because Russell Wilson's not playing. And I really wanted to see Russell Wilson against the Broncos

It I do if you're a Steelers fan. I think you should be happy though Why I think Russell Wilson would have tried so hard to do a revenge thing that he would have fucked it up You would have made a big revenge game spectacle He would have tried so hard to be like this is my moment to stick it to Sean Payton that he would have fucked up And it would have been a bad situation That might be true, so I think you're better off with Justin Fields I want to take the Broncos simply because of the you know go against yourself week one switch it up also Mile high when it's still hot is always a tough place to play

I just don't understand how Bo Nix is gonna survive against the Steelers defense. Yeah, Bo Nix I regret saying that he might be the next next up Jamis Winston. He was funny when he played Yeah, I'm not saying that he's gonna have the spectacular highs that Jamis gives you Yeah, he doesn't he doesn't push it down the field like Jamis But in a slapstick type of way watching him play quarterback is very funny to do. Correct. And just watch how he tries to run around and throw across his body. That part is still funny to me. You're probably right about Russell Wilson trying too hard. He definitely, he would probably have some weird video.

They would show, when they go to the game, Russell Wilson actually was here, fully padded at 6 a.m., running around the field. It would have been very funny for him after after the game to talk about how it would A great welcome the Denver Broncos fans gave him. Yeah, like it was a great homecoming It's just to see the guys that rooted for me and be able to thank them for everything they did for me Well, it was yeah, that would have been a hundred percent a lie. Yeah, I wanted to see that though I wanted to see him try too hard. Yeah as an outsider for your Steelers fan probably a good thing Yes, but for the rest of America, we wanted that comedy of the revenge game.

Correct. OK, so big game, afternoon game. This one will be obviously the sound. Bengals at Chiefs. Bengals got to figure it out. I'm worried, though, about Joe Burrow. Yeah, so the video of him trying to pick up a water bottle went around.

I think he's, well, I know that he's saying that it's not a big deal. I think it's a big deal. I think Joe Burrow is a tough guy, and he wants to play, and he is so competitive that he's like, I'm not going to miss the first couple games of the season. Yeah. I think it's fair to say that he's not healthy.

And it's more, so his wrist and his arm might feel okay. I don't know if mentally he trusts it yet, because watching back some of that game, some of the tape, no big deal, we watch tape on the show. He was a check down king. He actually was third ranked lowest in the NFL on Sunday or on week one with throws going to the sticks. So 27.6. He basically was just checking down. I think he just doesn't trust it yet. There were some

plays I was watching this one play that people were breaking down where Jamar Chase had a one on one on the outside and all he had to, he had a clean pocket. All he had to do was wait a couple seconds and he had just predetermined he was going to check it down. And so it's not as much that he might, it might not be that he's like, his wrist is so fucked, he can't make throws. I think he just is not ready for the game speed yet. I think he will be there eventually. Unfortunately they have to go up against the chiefs and that is a big tall task. You're going to have Chris Jones coming down your throat, and the Chiefs know that he is not 100% there. If Joe Burrow can't throw it deep and take those shots, it's just different.

He also has always been a little bit of a slow starter and always started in this way, so it could also just be that. I disagree with you that it's mental, not physical. I think it's physical. No, I... The only reason I'm saying mental is because when Joe says that it's mental, not physical. I think it's physical. No, I, I, I, I, the only reason I'm saying mental is because I, when Joe says that he's, he's good, I trusted that he's saying that in good faith. I do think there's some physical part, but I think there's also the mental part of it could happen with like Kirk

cousins where when you come back from an injury and you get thrown into a live NFL game, it's going to look different than it did in preseason, which I don't even think Joe Burrow played or practice. It just is different. No, but I think it's, I think it is a hundred physical and that when Joe Burrow says he's good, he knows he's not good and he's pissed off that he's not good. He was flexing it a lot too. Yeah. But he doesn't want to say like, I'm not feeling good because that would be making an excuse. Yeah, no, he's a fucking tough ass. I think that if it was physically good, he would like Joe is so mentally tough that he would just be like, I'm not worried about

it. Let's just play football. Yeah. And I don't think that he can play football a hundred percent. So I, I don't know. I, I want to see Joe play good this year. I want to keep the narrative of burrowhead going. Yeah. It'd be fun if he went into Kansas City and won. They also gave the chiefs a little bit of bulletin board material. Oh no. You see that? I love doing that. Oh, the Xavier Worthy? Yeah. So Taylor Britt said on Xavier Worthy, he's got speed. That's about it. He can run straight, run jet sweeps and just run straight. He can't do too much else. So that's about it. That's bulletin board. That is bulletin board. I also don't fully

disagree if you're just basing it off his first game because we were victim to this for like Xavier worthy is not fair. He had that big end around run. Yep. And he had the play where the Ravens just didn't play defense on what looked like a wheel around. I don't know what it was, but he, there was just no one even close to him. It's not like he caught 10 balls and had 150 yards. He caught two balls and had 47 yards. And I think 30 of them were on that one play. So 35 of them were on that one play. So I do think Xavier were the, I think that's Bolton board material. I also don't think it's totally wrong yet. Also, if he can just run straight really fast,

that's a pretty good thing to combine with Patrick Mahomes. That is good. And on the end of the round, if you're 0.01 seconds slower, you don't score that touchdown. You get tackled. It was a great run. Here's my thought starter for you. If Xavier Worthy was on any other team

and had his stat line from week one, would anyone care? No, he'd be a speed merchant. Right. That's kind of my point. It's not that he's not good. other team and had his stat line from week one, would anyone care? No, he'd be a speed merchant. Right. That's kind of my point is it's not that he's not good. It's just that because he's on the Chiefs and he's so fast and we saw it, everyone's like, this is not fair. This is not right.

Well, there's another part. It's because he replaced Kaderius Tony. True. So it's a big, big upgrade. That's the biggest upgrade ever. I think he's good. So I just think we're more pissed that the chiefs have a weapon. So another one.

Yes. And Taylor Bridge should update this and say he can't do too much else. He can run straight and be better than Kaderrius Tony. Yeah. So he's a two headed monster. And then everyone would would nod in the locker room like yeah, he's actually that's very right. Yeah.

Okay. We have Sunday Night Football to wrap it up. Bears Texans will be streaming. I'm very nervous about this game. Here's what I've done, because everyone does this as fans. You do mental gymnastics, try to figure out a path to victory, how it's going to work. The one thing that I have uncovered is that we talked about meatloaf, Tevandre Sweat for the Titans, absolute monster. The Texans don't have a Tevandre Sweat in terms of the middle of the

interior defensive line shouldn't be as big of a problem as it was against the Titans and that's where the Bears had a lot of trouble blocking. So I'm hoping Kale Williams doesn't have those plays where there is a 350-pound man jumping on top of them within two seconds, half a second of the ball being snapped. Yeah, and when he spins, he should spin away from the person. Yeah. And not just stop. Do we need a defensive touchdown and maybe a special teams

touchdown to win this game? Yeah, maybe. I'd take it. Or if they punted every first down. I'd take it. Then you could win that game too. I'd take it. But yeah, I think this is going to be a, uh, it's going to be a very, very interesting game to see where, where everything's at. All right. Walk me through this big cat. I know you'll be happy with the wind regardless of, but no matter what,

I mean, you, you tell me, okay, let me ask you hypothetical taking out injuries, wind, no matter what. Okay. Hypothetical. Yeah. Would you rather the Bears win and Caleb William he throws for 90 yards passing. Caleb Williams runs for 17 yards with a fumble and he's got an interception no touchdowns. Was the fumble was he hit on the fumble? No it was like it was like it was like Jalen Hurts in the Super Bowl. OK. Just slips and they run it the other way. OK. Would you rather that or Caleb throws for 350 yards and the Bears lose 20 to 32?

I would take the win. Take the win over progression from the quarterback. Yeah, because the pressure will come. Winning games is the best. But if there's two games in a row, but also that 100, then now we're talking narrative. But what you just said, so I was actually almost with you until you said 32. And then I'm like, then that means the defense stinks.

It's a weird score. Yeah, you could dilute. But the thing that I was feeling most confident in is now not a source of confidence. And now I'm questioning everything. Get me to 2 and 0. OK, let me change that. Get me to 2-0. Okay let me change that. Get me to 2-0. What if Caleb throws for 350 yards, a touchdown, no interceptions, and you guys lose 7-10. 350 yards, a touchdown, no interceptions,

7-10. I still want to win. You probably have kicking issues. I still want to win. 2-0 would be awesome. What do you think? Were you going to say something, Max? Would you take two and O? Yeah, I'll take two and O. Yeah. I want two and O. I want two and O. I want my quarterback to have a good game too. I do. You and I. Best world, best case scenario, both things happen. Yeah. That would be awesome. Correct. But if he doesn't have a great game, having a win is a nice consolation prize. Yep. Cause that's actually the main prize. What's fun is at that point, if he has some stinky games and you guys win, then you can just be like, he's a winner.

Yeah. He's got like Jimmy Garoppolo. It's also, if he doesn't play well on Sunday night and we use defense and special teams to win the game, it's no different than the Bears' entire history of everything. That's true. He's just a perfect Bears quarterback. He's just a turbocharged Rex Grossman. The best game manager you could have. I think he's going to play better though. I really do. No Roma doonze, right? I believe he is out. I don't think he's officially been ruled out, but it doesn't look like he's going to play, which stinks. All right, so the touchdown parlay, I screwed it up last week.

Then we'll get to our picks. I screwed it up last week. I had Dalton Kincaid. He did not score, so I'm out. So what we're going to do is we're going to do three picks. I'm out because I lost. If you guys win, all three win. We go to the next week.

We want people to win. And if one of you loses, then you're out. If two of you lose, we'll figure out how to do it. But go right now to DraftKings. DraftKings has you set up. They have not one, but two special offers to AWOs who want to bet the PMT Parlay this week. First, DraftKings giving all customers a no sweat touchdown bet for each football day

I'll go Jayden doing the podcast Jayden Daniels good pick. That's good There you go. Great pick max. I like it. You brought the podcast back Yep Giants defense sucks great. Daniel run the the run the ball to Jamie Jane and Daniels for a touchdown is a great play it's a great

play it's a great play I actually I like Daniel Jones to score in this game okay he plays really good you can do both we can do three quarterbacks it's just I know that's not my pick okay but bonus pick Daniel Jones okay but my real pick is JK Dobbins. Oh. So my formula is take a running back on a team that's playing against the Carolina Panthers. I like that. And it was good in week one and I think it'll be good in week two. Okay.

So the four weddings in a funeral picks Which have we thought about it more someone did throw out that we should do a party. I don't know if any of us could survive or I don't know if PFCI. Well, the problem is that's that's what's exciting. Well, here's the problem.

If the funeral is a bad idea, I'll speak for myself. Why? Because we don't how do you schedule that? What if we did? And what if the loser had to do just life so they had to go to a birth of a baby Maybe a quinceanera the funeral is bad. No funeral. I'm down for all of this except for funeral No, I forgot all we got to go with a full circle life would be incredible. Imagine loser has to do life How about this you how about this? We can't do funeral. We can't do funeral. How about this? A 50th birthday party? Someone said they were going to kill themselves and I had to go to their funeral. A divorce proceeding?

A divorce proceeding. We can't do funeral. Okay. Now the problem with the bachelor party would be I would want to do things on the bachelor party that I should not be doing in front of a WL No, yeah, it's the the problem with the black bachelor party is we just basically produce blackmail. Yes on ourselves. Yes And if we didn't if we didn't do stuff to produce blackmail, then they'd be like what a snooze I can't believe this guy came to the bachelor party didn't have any food

Yeah, I think we could do it if we just said no phones people would be so pissed if hanker if hanker I lost Yeah Or me or memes yeah I bet max would be fun on bachelor party. That's would be great on about if it was a golf trip Hank would be in a good mood alright, so it will figure it out, but I do think there's something there with with I Have a lot of like hit me up, they were like being honored to go to my funeral Yeah, yeah me too. I and I think but I think in the in the Sake of a bet like you guys having to go at bachelor party because you don't want to it's the entire point

Yeah, I also had a lot of people hit me up be like, thank God somebody thought that that was a bad idea Hmm. I had a lot of people hit me up saying that was a great idea. I heard the other one See, he doesn't realize that death is part of life. I had a lot of people hit me up saying that was a great idea. I heard the other one. It's a pussy. He doesn't realize that death is part of life. All right, so we'll evolve it. But I think we're onto something. It's going to be something like that. Can we all agree?

Whether it be a wedding and a bachelor party, maybe a birth of a baby, a quinceanera, life would be awesome. What about, I know it's hard. What if we had to go to a birthday party of every age, I know it's hard. What if we had to go to a birthday party of every age? I know it's hard because it's a never ending punishment. It's right in between. It takes 99 days.

A high school graduation. I know it's hard because it's right in between. A division one college graduation for like 7,000. Wait, division one college graduation? It's just so amazing. Or like a state school, a state school graduation. It would be funny if we could move somebody into college. Like we're the dads.

Like we show up on campus with a truck full of shit. We help them load up their dorm rooms. That's what I'm saying. Just do life. That's too many things. We could pare it down. Okay, what about this? What if we probably have some high school AWLs, right?

You think? OK. So if you lose, you have to commit to somewhat adopting that kid for the rest of their life. I can't take another kid. I can't have another kid. So you have to go to their high school graduation. No, I can't have another kid.

You have to help them move into college. You have to go to their wedding when they get married. I can't have another kid. You have to be there after they have their first child. I can't another kid and then they're for their funeral. God forbid that would be fine Because then you would develop a relationship. Yeah, I'm out of that. All right, and then when they die you go to their funeral Yeah, then I would go to a funeral if you were if it if it if it felt like I was going because I It was out of respect and not out of a punishment.

Not just for vibes. All right. All right. We got to figure this out soon because somebody's going to start to fall behind. By next week. By next week. By next week.

I'll put my, I'll think about some stuff. All right, so I think Max, PFT, and Hank all went 2 and 0. I went 1 and 1. Feels good to be 2 and 1. Oh, and memes went 0 and 2 and two so max you have first pick Yeah, do I yes, cuz Hank went first last time no memes went first last time, okay? I am going to take the

Seattle Seahawks minus three and a half against the New England Patriots. Oh nice Hank doesn't even care Does I think that was like I? Think that lines too. I think the Patriots still fucking suck. Okay, all right. I am going to take my Indianapolis Colts Minus three okay, okay, I'm gonna take Someone's Jacksonville Jaguars minus three Jaguars kid what I'm taking the Brown's Jacksonville Jaguars minus three. Jaguars kid. What?

You taking the Browns? Yep. Oh, do it. Do it. That's stinky, I like it. Yeah, do it. The Jaguars are stinky. Why?

Well, you didn't watch Schemes on Sunday. I did, I was sitting next to you. It was on the same time the Patriots were playing. The Patriots, I couldn't even fucking watch the game. Small TV. Gave us the fucking- Small TV. Okay. 22 inches of screen is the R Kelly TV The Jaguars just blew that like they they absolutely choked that game away. They have no business. There's not

Disagreeing with you whatsoever But I don't think they're that and Deshaun Watson has has the tools has as we just went over yeah, which one tool he has arm talent Yep, mm-hmm does he? You know we just we yeah, we just went you didn't look that good last week. It's somewhere in there It's somewhere in there somewhere in there all right snake. Yeah I'm gonna go I have the Browns plus three against the Jaguars I have the Browns plus three against the Jaguars

Excuse me, and then I am going to take the under in the New York Giants of Washington commanders game under 43 nice It's not your pick It is it's me Steelers minus two and a half and then the under and the Giants commander That was huge memes. Huge. All right. I'm going to take the over in the New York Giants Washington commanders game over 43. I love it.

I love it. That's a good move. That's a spiked move. Why do you like that over Hank? Just two dynamic quarterbacks, explosive offenses. Don't lump me in with Danny Dimes. What do you mean? They're high, they're flying quarter? I flying quarter flying high flying quarter X All right, I'll take the over in the site. I shouldn't have done that. It's Cowboys 46 and a half. I was dumb

Okay, that's a fun over to take yeah, 43 Thought about that one high flying. It's an impossible amount of points. I fly. I was I was a throwaway I just hang away pick think about this way pick sixes that helps. Yeah, that was That was okay, that's right. You know what I'm gonna take the over on that game because Hank thinks it's so dumb No, he's got it. Oh, you're saying in just saying real life. Yeah. All right, so your last pick I'm gonna Jags Browns over 41 and a half. Okay. I don't think that the Sean is gonna be as bad as he was last week I hope. And then I think that the Jags, again, kind of a fluky game

that they gave up last week. And they're at home, home opener. I believe in Duvall. And Hank thinks they stink. Hank thinks they stink, yeah. OK. I took such a stinky under last time. I'm going to try and go with a fun over this time

I love that about you. Just get fun with it. Yep. I'm gonna go Lions Bucks over 51 and a half Lions Bucks over that is a fun one. Yeah, it's a lot of very funny but a lot of point but fun, okay All right. So those are our picks. We'll figure out, we'll nail down the punishment for next week.

Holy shit! My friend- my uncle Junior, uh, uh loves you might be part haitian oh hey my sleeper is josh allen's pistachio farm oh did you guys see this you guys read about this no i didn't see it i didn't read about it i saw it on the big screen on the television during the game he's got a pistachio farm i don't even know what the fuck that means i love it i remember hearing about that he was doing an interview on part of my take and he talked got a pistachio farm I don't even know what the fuck that means I remember hearing about that he was doing an interview on part of my take and he talked about that pistachio farm I wanna go thanks for listening to part of my take great podcast okay that it yeah all right hey what's up guys my name is Shinona Shopee Uh, I'm starting I'm starting Uh Uh Uh

Uh Uh Uh Uh Uh Uh And this week I'm sitting Hey Papi

Oh Oh Papi Chupapi moneno And my sleep is John Von Jovi, great guy Yeah Saved somebody from jumping off a bridge Hey Dom Uh

What's up guys, my name's DiCaprio Bootle Hey Bootle My stardom is the Los Angeles Chargers because they just signed me off the practice squad to our practice squad Let's go Bootle That's actually my name DiCaprio Bootle My sinem is the Texans defense they don't know what they're going to get Kale Williams going to throw for over 100 yards

over 100 big over 100 he's joined the stamp it the three digit club i'm putting my personal guarantee on 100 yards plus there we go and my sleeper

he's gonna be like Will Chamberlain after the game holding that sign up yeah 100 my sleeper is Antonio Brown's twitter account because it's being run by a random white dude from UCF uh like the... No shit. Yeah. It was the most obvious call. Uh, yeah.

It was obvious, but it's funny seeing the guy's picture. Cracker of the day. Yeah. Oh, yeah, guys. Going through a lot of slurs. That guy liked to say the N-word. Yeah. And the F-word.

Yeah, so that... That came out. Yeah. So, and then the account that tweeted out clarified after like an hour I just talked to Antonio Brown. It is actually him doing it. That's just his manager that helps run the social So curate so it might so it's alleged it's all alleged. It's a whole legend I'm gonna I'm gonna go on a limb and say that it is the guy from UCF that it's very funny because we all thought it And then was obvious. It was very obvious, but it was also like there's no way

Some white dudes running this because someday we're gonna find out that it was white dude running this and then we might have found out That is a white dude running it today. Yeah, this makes me look at ctesp n is not a trusted news source anymore. Does he keep tweeting? Yeah, he has yeah. Oh, okay. So he's got a power to... I think that's the right move. Yeah. Because if you stop, then everyone's... You're guilty. We need to...

If you don't, then you can just always be like, yeah, it was Antonio Brown all along. I was going to say we need to run it through one of those AI language analyzers, but I don't think that... That would probably just break the AI machine trying to analyze Antonio Brown's thoughts. Yeah, I'd agree. I'd agree. All right, let's get to Brooks Kapka and Taylor Gooch. Yep, before we get into Brooks and Taylor,

it's brought to you by our good friends over at Chevy. There's a reason why we've never done the Mount Rushmore pickup trucks. That's because there's only one, and that's Chevy. That's the Silverado. Silverado's a beautiful machine. It's a big part of the part of my take story. The Silverado got us across the country for the Super Bowl.

Silverado drives us around at Crit Week. Silverado sponsors the Lowman Trophy. Hunter Lepke, Lowman Trophy winner. And Chevy sponsors it all. It's been a big part of part of my take throughout the years. It's the best truck in the biz. This thing has so many screens. It's got the biggest screens.

It's got so many cameras for when you're trying to back into a spot, pull out of a spot. It makes it super easy to drive. It is a truck with outstanding grit. It's a truck that's determined. It's a truck that's stylish as well and super, super comfortable on the inside. We love Chevy trucks. You will too. Go to a Chevy dealership, sit behind the wheel of a Chevy, see how you like it. They've got the new Silverado HD Trail Boss. It's got a bold blacked out look to it. That thing is awesome.

You will love it too. Go to Chevy.com, build your own Silverado or Silverado HD and check out all the current offers on Silverado. Discover a world of strength and capability all behind the wheel of our favorite truck. That would be the Chevy Silverado. The interview is also being brought to you by the farmer's dog.

And then we also have a new guest, Taylor Gooch in the studio. Liv guys, welcome. I was going to ask the first question, it's going to be about Blake of the Year, but I think that probably is going too hard, too fast. Taylor, my first question for you was your last name It's pretty memorable yeah Just kind of the elephant in the room like I mean, I don't know why I have a first name Yeah, you guess you're just the Gooch man. Yeah, just the good It's not a bad golf nickname because it means that you're always close to the hole

Hey, there's a I don't think you can say anything that I haven't heard already on the golf course. Yeah Yeah, what point were you like? Oh this like was it like 10 11 years old? We were like, oh it kind of sucks I feel like maybe like in a movie or something. They said like Gooch when I was like, you know 10 I'm like, hold on second. What are they talking about? And then you quickly learn what they're talking about Yeah Because that had to be a big like life life changing moment where you live your first 10 years being like, oh, my life's totally normal, gooch.

And then the minute it clicks, well, this kind of changes everything. Correct. Correct. But hey, like I said, it's memorable. Yeah. And also in your defense, you're a professional golfer, so you're kind of beating everyone else because that's golf being a professional golfer the One sport that it feels like all these dudes play late in their life and being better than all of them. That's got a rock

It it does until it doesn't and then everybody beats you and you're like well, I suck now Which has happened a few times this year. I mean, it's it's a humbling game, but it is nice going back home with the boys and Cracking a few a few cold ones and kind of beating them with one hand basically yeah, right you still go for fun So Berlin no yeah Yeah, correct answer. Yeah, it's practice Yeah Cuz it is the it is the one thing that I think most people, I'd say like 50% or 60% of adult, at least adult males

that have good jobs, they do your job as their vacation. They plan their entire vacations around what your job is. So one of my good buddies is the catcher for the Phillies. His name is JT Real Muda. We grew up together. And we have a bunch of buddies back home that are still tight and we still get together in the off seasons and stuff. And for years, the debate was who's got the better gig,

the baseball player or the golfer. And I always used to say, dude, like, when was the last time you paid for a flight? When was the last time, like, you carried your bags? Like, when was the last time you went over and your game check wasn't there? But then his argument was always, dude, people work their whole lives to be able to retire and do what you do for a living I'm like, yeah, that's kind of true. Yeah, true. JT real Muto's in my fantasy league or I'm in his fantasy league

Yeah, I gotta talk some shit. Oh Yeah, I got you. Okay for later. Yeah. Yeah. I mean the being a professional golfer Yeah, that is like everyone's feels like everyone's dream. I wonder, does podcasts are going there at all? No. Watching football all day. Yeah. The watching football part. Brooks is kind of jealous of us. Yeah. Yeah. He texts every now and then being like, I kind of wish I was just sitting in the gambling cave. Yeah. That's one spot I do wish I was on Saturdays and Sundays. Yeah. There are a few people that work for the company where their primary job is just to sit down on live streams And watch games. Yeah, and those people yeah, that's that's a great. That's the best job. They just got to hire me

Yeah, simple. Yeah. Yeah, you guys don't have a Fine alright, so we got to talk about the the big elephant in the room Your Blake of the year performance this year was abysmal. No showed. What are you, there's a lot of people out there like, does he want it? Is he invested in this? Now in your defense, every single time we do Blake of the Year, you are somewhere abroad. Yes.

Which doesn't help, but a lot of questions and wondering if your heart's still in it. I set out, when I woke up that day. I was ready I was ready to answer the phone and then there was I don't know 15 tequila shots in between then and then somehow Forgot about my phone. Don't even know where it was. Yeah. Yeah Yeah, it was a pretty poor performance I might argue on your behalf though because one could make the argument that that's the most Blake move of all time To get so drunk during Blake correct. That's that you forget about Blake of the year Exactly is our Barrett Robbins moment when the member when the guy on the Raiders like went to

Tijuana right before the soup bowl and just got drunk and pissed off. Yeah, that's what you did in this case That's what I did. Yeah next year's my redemption year It's like Bortles and Griffin, kind of a try hard move. True. Being right, ready to answer their phone and hop on the Zoom call immediately. True. They're quick too.

Yeah. I think we had to wait like three, four days before I even remotely looked at my phone again. Yeah. Yeah. Before I responded. Yeah. The thing you have going against you

is that your name's not actually Blake. So I don't know if you could say that like, if you're not a Blake and you're partaking in this type of extreme Blake behavior, like are you, is that Blake appropriation? Ooh, that's a good point. So, I don't know. Might have to legally change it.

You'll have a chance, yeah. Actually, if you did, you wouldn't even have to tell anybody. You just go to the courthouse and do that on your own. And then you just have a certified document that says that your name is officially Blake Koepka. We'll keep it in here. Yeah, we'll keep it in here. You have another kid named Blake.

That's true. Yeah. Are you getting excited for the President's Cup? It's this weekend. Is it? Yeah. Wait. We might air this after. I think it's like two weeks from now. I want to say like the 20th sometime around that. Is it? Yeah I'd hear this after

I think it's like two weeks from now. Yeah, I want to say like the 20th sometime. Is that what it is? Yeah, there's a two on it somewhere in the 20s who decides you guys can't be in it the tour Yeah, so the tour runs the President's Cup. Yes I think the PJ tour actually does run the president's now I don't want to give you any tips scooch But you need to make a big stink about it being like, is this bullshit because I would have been in it. You'd be like, they're holding me back.

You're basically getting- He's putting an asterisk. Yeah, you can argue that. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. You know, I don't like causing any chaos or anything, so I'll just let them do their thing. That's a good headline though, Gooch makes big stink. Yeah, he did.

Yeah, the asterisks. Yeah, throwing asterisks everywhere. Sweet. do you think they're going to change that? It feels like they're going to change it, but I don't know. I feel like they're... You were on the Ryder Cup. Yeah. I mean, I feel like over like two years from now, I think we'll all be laughing about this and I'll be playing somewhere. It might be a live versus PGA Tour thing. Who knows what it could be. So we'll see. Yeah. I mean, there is a merger in place, right?

Isn't there a framework? Yeah. I heard that... First I heard there was an outline and then I heard mean there is a merger in place, right? Isn't there? A framework? Yeah, yeah. First I heard there was an outline, and then I heard that there was a framework, and then I heard- There's a bunch of deadlines that come and go. We gotta hit the deadlines, and then miss a couple deadlines.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Do you know where there's another one? Have you heard anything as players in the Live Tour of where this framework is right now? No. Or any of the points from the framework? Have you looked around? Like, it could be in the locker room somewhere, there's a framework? Yeah. You never know.

Is there a framework in the room with us right now? Yeah. There might be. Might be a few frames. Maybe the big sticking point is whether or not you guys can wear shorts. Ooh. That seems like a non-negotiable to me. Do you guys like the shorts? It's so much nicer. Well, you do look ridiculous. I mean, I always look ridiculous. Yeah, but it does like, there's something about golf where it's like, why are these guys wearing shorts? It you should play golf and shorts, but for some reason, because we're so so conditioned to watching guys in pants. When you see the shorts, like this is not what's going on. Yeah, Mickey Mouse golf. Yeah, but it does. It has to like how many strokes does it affect being in shorts? I'd say at least two. Really?

Yeah. Gooch? I mean, it affects Gooch. Yeah. Yeah. It bunches you up. Yeah. Yeah.

I mean, hey, when you're in places like Singapore and you are sweating your nuts off, it is a game changer. Yeah. I imagine. Because I don't think I've ever, unless it was like raining outside or 50 degrees, I don't think I've ever unless it was like raining outside or 50 degrees I don't think I would ever wear shorts or excuse me ever wear pants on a golf course. Yes always shorts

Yeah, you don't even want to play when it's 50 degrees and raining. Yeah. Yeah Wait, so Brooks, why can't we win a Ryder Cup on the road? Oh, that's a good question. Mm-hmm It's kind of tough. I mean I did lose what nine and eight I did I lost my one match with Scottie Scheffler the best player in the world Yeah, and we both know showed nine eight. It was a quick exit. Mm-hmm It's been a bunch of time the couch drinking. Okay, but then on that Sunday, I feel like you came back Yeah, yeah on Sunday you and Max basically just tried to protect America. Yeah, Max Max led the charge Yeah but is it is it really that different

like playing on the road in the right? Because it feels like it just flips back and forth whoever has home. I don't think it is. I mean, two teams, somebody's gotta win. Obviously home field advantage probably a little bit, but I don't know, I don't think it's anything. Yeah.

Do you guys talk about it like before the matches? Do you have like a team meeting where you go over strategy like, hey, we need to be good today at golf? Yeah. Yeah. We definitely have a few meetings. It just sometimes you think you might be playing with one guy and then all of a sudden it switches up. You never know what's going to happen. But there's no like pump up speech in the locker room. No. And there's no rah rah speech. We're not headbutton guys doing stuff like that. That would be kind of cool. Maybe that's what we're going to change. We could start that in New York. Get Saban in there. Yeah. That would be kind of cool. Maybe that would be the charge You could start that you're saving in there. Yeah, Joe. Foley. Yeah, was there any point when when the whole like

Was the hat controversy was your hat? Yes. Yeah. Yes the no hat was there any point We're like, I'm gonna I'm ready to fight like we're gonna go I'm gonna fist fight this thing out I couldn't believe it. I didn't even know what was going on I think I was back in the locker room just chilling and then get in the car and all of a sudden everybody said that Rory was had a lot of pull-me-back energy. Yeah, he did. Yeah with that. Yeah, he was upset Yeah, that's such a golf thing to how this fight start one guy had his hat. I mean that sports in general It's a lot of pull-me-back. Yeah, come on man. Yeah golfers. You're no chance you're fighting No, well, I mean there has been some beef, but you did squash the beef.

There's no more beef at all with Bryson. I mean, you guys are going to be teammates, right? Yeah. And the match against Rory and who? I don't know. I don't know. He might be in prison. Rory and Scottie.

Scottie. Rory and Scottie. Yeah. Hopefully he's not arrested on the way to the course. Rory and Scottie versus you and Bryson. So it's safe to say that the beef is way over and gone with between you and Bryson. Yeah, we're done.

Was there a moment where you guys shook hands and you said, OK, beef ended? Yeah, I think it was. I think, obviously, the live conversation, that was kind of the big turning point. It's like, hey, we've got to work together with this. But also, it's, I mean, for five years, it's like, all right, finally, we'll just move on.

Yeah. It ran its course. I didn't want to beat him up too bad. Yeah. I think we were the last two people who were still beefing on your behalf. Yeah. And we had to put down the flag where everyone's like, no, Bryson's actually not that bad. But the Brandy Shamblies, that stuff, that's still going.

Beef's still going with that. That's still going. I think he has me blocked. We're going to keep that one for a long time. I'm going with Bryson right now, but I just want you to know there is a hair trigger where if I even get nudged in the direction of reb'm cool with Bryson right now, but I just want you to know, there is like a hair trigger where if I even get nudged in the direction of rebeefing with Bryson, I'll do it.

Right. I just think you should go back to the paperboy hat. Yes. Yeah, agreed. I think we need a little bit of that. Yeah, a little bit of flair. Yeah, we want, we're trying to get Bryson on to officially squash the beef here, because you've squashed it,

but like we need to squash it. Because we did a lot of evidence. We were on the front lines for you We have some like battle scars that we need to probably talk through like hey we said some things you said some things Yeah, we need to get them on. Yeah, I don't think he ever said anything about us. I think he thought about it. Yeah He'd oh, yeah This interview is being brought to you by Paramount Plus.

Check it out now and now back to Brooks Koepka and Taylor Gooch. So you guys are in town this week What's what's the goal? What are we gonna? What are we look at on Sunday? Trophies yeah trophies. Yeah. Yeah. So how how's team golf like? It's so weird to me. I still don't really understand like I know how team golf works

But is it did it take a little time to get over like hey this used to be a sport that we just Only care about ourselves and now we're trying to be actual teammates? I think it's one of those things where if you, you go out and you go do what you got to do and then you're just looking at the leaderboard, hoping Gooch plays well or GMAC if he's playing and then, um, you know, Co-Krak, you just hope they're playing well and then just add them up at the end of the day. I mean, it's like Belichick says the same, just do your job. Yeah. Do you guys though ever fall for the trap like when we go out Hank PFT and I and we're trying to do something as

Like a three-man scramble It's within maybe two shots. We just blame each other like do you ever like hey? I we lost but I won like I played better than you I mean If we start playing scramble golf, maybe yeah, Yeah, which would be fun. We start our own tour Yeah, I mean a scramble on on the tour be very fun I think that's what I'm saying. We got to start our own league. You want to do it? Let's do it Okay, what are we gonna call it? The goose the good? Yeah. Yeah afternoon good I thought a good format for golf would be if you just took your best nine holes,

no matter what holes those were and just like score it to par. You just pick? Yeah, you score it to par. So like I'll go out there and I'll probably have like seven or eight holes where I just take the max and I'm like, fuck it. But it's okay if you do that because you're only counting your top nine holes. So halfway through a hole, you can be like, I'm not going to use this hole anyways, I'm going to pick my ball up, go on on my way just go sit in the cart and have a beer

Yeah, go sit in the cart have a beer the round moves along a lot quicker. We're in we're out in like three hours Yeah, I've always said 18 holes is too many. Yes. Yeah, what's the perfect amount of holes? I guess 12 That's a great question. I Mean you I've said 12. Yeah, cuz like 13 17 12 is cuz 12 also is I've said 12. Yeah, because like the 13th through 17th. Because 12 also is like you could go golf and be done in 2 and 1.5 hours. And that's like, because for me personally,

I would love to golf more. But I can't be like, hey, to my wife, like hey, I'm going for the next five hours. Yeah, good luck with that. Yeah, right. But like 2 and 1.5 hours, you could do that and just be like, that's not a huge time commitment. Perfect time frame right there. there anymore 12. I think there are a couple 12 hole golf courses What do they call those executive courses? Yes, it's such a cool name. That is like. Yeah, I'm a

I'm skipping work to come golf here. I'm a CEO my time is important. I can't do 18 holes of golf Yeah, what was the last time so you guys have played so many courses all over the world What was the last time you were wowed by a course like this place is insane? It's been a while. Yeah, I got so you're every year and yeah, it's in perfect shape. It's phenomenal, but There's not many shadow shadow blew my mind a few years back when we played on tour there They had like it took me six holes to find a divot like it was in such perfect shape I was like, did you play that? Yeah, where is it dude in Vegas Vegas? So it's a little blurry. Yeah, okay Got it. Yeah, literally like took six holes before I found a divot in the fairway and I was just like this is insane

Yeah, insane. That's crazy. Yeah, I mean a good I don't know the difference between any of these golf courses So if you take me if you took me to Gus I'd be like this kind of looks same as all the other ones No, the green you would notice the green. It's a different color there. Yeah. Yeah, no, you can go play the one We're playing this week. Yeah, we are. We are. It's perfect Do you are you are you a little bit afraid to see me back out on the course after what I did? Yeah, the beatdown I got last time was pretty good, so we're going to have to figure out something new. You're also in trouble because I found on Instagram, I found a driver that doesn't slice.

Oh, yes. I think it's illegal, but I have it. Yes. It goes left? No, it goes straight every time. It only goes 200 yards, but it goes straight every time. That's perfect. Yeah.

I have a bunch of buddies that would want that, by the way. Yeah, you could, I'll hook them up. I'll hook them up All right, so Florida State sucks. Yes, very bad. What's going on there? I don't know. Is it a ladder watcher? NIL? It could be because you have money get the PIF involved. Yeah Yeah, bring the PIF. I know the PIF was beyond trying to do that or something in Colorado. Yeah. Yeah, so yeah bring him before to stay We'll be fine. What's I mean, Owen too, after last year, like, what are you going to do? Yeah, I don't know. I find more NIL money. Okay. That's the answer.

I don't know. It's not the coach. I think it's a bit of both. Yeah. DJ you. Yeah. Well, I don't know. It's not great right now. Yeah. And then the vibes aren't good. And Gooch, you're a big Oklahoma State guy. Sucks that Oklahoma's out of the Big 12 but your season's going okay. I love Gundy. Gundy is the man. Yeah the man. Did you see what he was saying earlier? Maybe it was yesterday they asked him about they had some transfer in and they were like so why'd you pick him? He's like do you want me to tell you coach talk or do you want me to be real? Yeah. and they were like we want you to be real. He goes he was affordable. Yeah, right

He's he got he's a perfect example too of like you got to know what you are in college football and not try like Having Gundy, you know, you're gonna have a good competitive team every year. Yeah, maybe you won't win a national title But there's still some fun in it Like I'm going through that right now with Wisconsin where it's like, we've made these transitions like, I just want to go back to winning nine games, 10 games. Yeah. That's cool. You know, Eight or nine games at Oklahoma state is a fun season. Right. Fans go, they have a good time. You could win any game. Yeah. And Gundy is always, he's just so fun to watch. Like

during the games, I saw him just screaming at the refs in that game against Arkansas. And you can't tell me that the refs don't think about that in the back of their head. They're like, I really don't want to piss off Mike Gundy. Oh, a hundred percent. They don't want to get hit with the mullet. No. Like playing simple. No, he's the best man. He, uh, he, he, so he grew up where I'm from. I have a funny story about him. So I'm from this little town right outside of Oklahoma City and So my freshman year at Oklahoma State the golf team was great They had like Peter U line and Morgan Hoffman Kevin's way like all these all-americans and I'm just this little freshman

Showing up and so I kept joking with all of them. I'm like man Y'all are like small fish in a big pond like where I'm from. I'm a big fish in the small pond Everybody knows me back home like I'm just messing with them, right? I kept saying, I'm like, man, I'm a hometown hero. Y'all know nothing about that. And Gundy brought a recruit on a visit to Carson Creek, the golf course, and we were there that day. And I hadn't seen him since I was a kid. And so he comes, introduces the recruit to all the golfers and the coaches and stuff. Then he comes to the recruits all the you know Golfers and the coaches and stuff then he comes me goes. Oh fellas. This guy is a hero back home

And I was like Then tell you so yeah gun gun. He's my dude. Yeah, he's I mean he's a it's crazy How old is he now because I feel like he's always 40 Is he that's gonna be a big one of you old when he turned 60. I think that he would. That was 2007. Maybe the man on 40. So he's yeah. He's that's 17 years old. Yeah. Yeah. That's going to fuck me. That's fucked me up bad. But then we get, we get to say it starting next year. That's true. We're about to turn 40. We're men. Finally, we're men. One of my favorite things about Oklahoma State is the mascot his name's Pete, right? The different cartoon drawings that they do with Pete for every single sport so cool. It's the best So the golf and Pete one is pretty good. Yep swinging Pete swinging Pete. That's the name of swinging pete's awesome

What's uh, what are the other crazy sports that they have him playing? I think there's a wrestling Pete Oh, yeah, where he's like he's grappling with somebody my favorite ones the baseball one. It's it's sweet Like he's it's just he's got bat and he's just swimming but it just looks sweet. He's a great. He is a great mascot I haven't seen they should have one like there's the equestrian is big at Oklahoma State I bet there's an equestrian Pete somewhere where he's like riding a horse or something Yeah, there's some good ones. It's just a fun. It's a fun sports university I always say that the the sky and still water you will never find a darker sky Anywhere in the world then still water at night for a home game. The sky is neon black

it's a different shade of black than you'll see at any other college atmosphere and when the when the Students are wearing like sometimes you do the black out there too, it's one of the most intimidating places to play. I think Yeah, it's football. There's about seven stoplights in the town. So there's not a bunch of a Light illuminating the sky so that that you're right like it gets dark there it does Because look at look at a wrestling Pete that might be my favorite one. Oh wrestling Pete's a fucking jacked up this guy I love that. Oh, yeah It's pretty solid. I forgot to say congratulations on the Panthers. Yeah. Thank you. How long where were you when they won? Were you there? No, I I promised my I was in Nashville

I promised my wife that I would stay in Nashville. She went to school there and live there for about two years So I stayed there actually went to the barstool bar Nice. We we had some fun. How long did it take for you after they won for you to blink? Probably about three hours. Yeah That was an awesome run that was it was phenomenal. I mean so cool the fact they almost blew it too was Nerve-wrack. Yeah, it was close. I was sweating it. Yeah, you know Between the the bets and watching it and not wanting to blow. Yeah, the real lead was was It was a bit nerve-racking, but we had a few drinks to ease the pain

Off right on the right note. I Was in an aisle I saw milk whatever grabbed it didn't think about it one of those half gallons Got home Monday night before I went to bed had a bowl of raisin bran I like to eat cereal at night not a cereal in the morning guys silly late night late night snack Okay, okay making them at night What what you know the chain? He's making them at night making them at night and then in the morning woke up early before I went to the gym made a protein shake use the same milk

Started driving to the gym and had never had to shit my pants as bad in my entire life legitimately in the Audi please somebody to the Audi driving I was you should be out in the Audi I didn't even make the gym I came to the office because the gym that I go to has like one stall so sometimes if you have to take a shit there's a chance that it's occupied so I couldn't even run the risk I was like passing cars driving borderline recklessly to get just to the office. Yeah. Disaster. Yeah.

Disaster, stomach, disaster. For like two hours, disaster. And I got home, and I was like, what could it possibly have been? All I had today was just a protein shake. I bought lactose-free milk. Oh. So your lactose intolerant reverse yeah I got reverse lactose intolerated yeah damn what I didn't know is the

thing I don't know what how what lactose free milk no wait wait why they sell it and why they sell it near the regular milk let me jump in real quick you might it might not have been the milk it It might've been the massive protein shake that you had. No, cause I had that every morning. Okay. No, no other ingredients. No creatine. I have creatine every morning. Cause creatine can make you have the shits bad. But I, but it was unlike anything I've ever experienced. Like I've had shits, you know, you, you drink coffee in the morning.

Sometimes you just shit you pre-workout gives you the shit This was like it was it was a disaster. It was a disaster for a while like it wasn't like you know your your morning Yeah, clear out this never recovered For like three hours. It was pain. It was it was you know sitting on the toilet contemplating life thinking You're never gonna smile again type situation. Yeah, are you addicted to milk? You get a milk problem? No, I like regular milk I lactose free milk is crazy to me. I didn't know what it was labels. No, I didn't know I didn't even Subject myself to the art like I do that all the time Not lactose free milk, but I don't read labels ever when I'm shopping

I always come back with one thing that was incorrect You know what it is is the red carton that they sell it in it was blue. It was the blue carton Oh, man, they're life. They do try to get you and they got me and they got me dad and that's what happens to people that are lactose-dollard that I sympathize with them dearly I Have a take Wait, whoa, what wouldn't max gonna say? I think that I I used to drink lactose-free milk all the time growing up I had someone in my family's lactose and we would only have that. Oh good. I have a take. Yeah

That's a good comment man. No, I don't I don't think that that's what that was I think that you have that cuz I have a take off that max is like you only max like I only shit myself When I was drinking regular milk Yeah, no, but I would drink regular milk too I was fine what I'm about to say is probably gonna offend some people and people are gonna tweet me and be really upset I Think lactose intolerant people are just pussies. I used to think that I just I got come on come on When people like I can't eat that ice cream. I'm locked shut the fuck up eat the ice cream I think that there are people that that's not true for the most part of lactose intolerant people But there are some people lactose intolerant when they're 18 plus there. Yeah, there are some people that

Claim stolen valor off lactose intolerance like there because it becomes a personality trait. Yeah, there are allergies I respect peanut allergy respect that you can freaking die of the allergy allergy respect the fuck out of that Don't respect people who say oh the Trees have you know buds on it and I'm sneezing in the spring don't respect that and don't respect like yours like pollen No, I don't know. I don't even I think pollen is just a sign of weakness if pollen affects you sign of weakness I don't respect pollen allergy. I do respect the lactose thing I don't unless unless it's borderline people that are like, yeah, I drink lactose-free milk

because sometimes my stomach gets upset if I have lactose. Oat milk, don't respect it. I respect lactose-free if you've been lactose for your whole life. If you're 18 plus and then decide to become lactose intolerant, I don't respect that. I just don't respect it.

Riddle me this. But now I kind of do. Answer this. Because if the reverse of what happened to me is what happens to them, then I Would also be lactose intolerant or some babies lactose intolerant. I don't think so because you got it You got to get that milk right I just when it comes to our things people are allergic to if it could kill you I'm fully on board like

Respect you like you know people have like shellfish some weird like that where it's like yeah I could die if I eat that. That's no joke if your tummy hurts shut the fuck up my tummy hurts every time I eat ice cream I'm lactose intolerant I like it when people go to a doctor that specializes in treating like a lifetime treatment for for being like gluten intolerant And they give them a test like oh surprise You tested positive for the thing that I actually solve and that you have to keep coming back and seeing me for. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, like, oh, the only medicine is just give me more money. Yeah.

I'm happy I got that take off my chest. Just described Big Pharma, bro. Yeah. I've had that take for a while. I've never felt safe to say it, but I'm going to say it. And I know there's going to be people like, you don't know, man. You don't know. I kind of think of all, other than peanuts. I respect peanut allergies because all food all food allergy. Now shellfish is shellfish shellfish. It's like I just don't like going out to dinner with people who have food allergies. It's basically very clear that if a shellfish like you can legitimately shellfish. You need an Epi pen. I respect you. Right.

If you're if you like, I got a little diarrhea, dude, that's my whole life is eating too much ice cream and getting diarrhea. Like shellfish and peanuts. They can take you out. Yeah. And at a moment's notice. Yeah. If yeah, exactly. Tree nuts. Tj watt. Yeah. Tree nuts. Yeah. I feel like that's an EpiPen. Yeah. It's an EpiPen. Which my fault TJ. Sorry again. Wait. I thought only tree nuts were just nuts that literally dropped from a tree, didn't realize

it was literally all the nuts. I'm reading up right now that cow's milk can cause life-threatening anaphylaxis. No, no. Never heard of that word before. Yeah, and that would be, they'd have to drink like an entire cow. We can get to it at the lottery ball. Pug is this person. He's like those.

I feel like put him in here right now. Right now. Right now. Get in here right now. Get Pug in here right now. You know what? I respect Hank more that he's he's intolerant of things that are lactose intolerant.

Yeah. Yeah. You just get a man's stomach. Yeah. I'm reverse lactose intolerant. Yeah. You need it. I'm lactose tolerant as fuck. Yeah. Jerry claims that doing one of the challenges drinking a lot of milk has made him lactose intolerant. Yeah, you need it. Um, yeah, I'm lactose tolerant as fuck Yeah, Jerry claims that doing one of the challenges drinking a lot of milk has made him lactose intolerant Pug Puggy our dear puggy our lovely puggy. We love you so much puggy. We want to boop you forever

pug You lactose intolerant? Yes, like actually lactose intolerant. What happens when you eat ice cream? I just like get very bloated. Oh, I rest my case. Thank you Pug. You're dismissed. Appreciate your time. You have done exactly what I needed in front of the jury. What a moment! What a moment! So perfect!

What happens? I fart a lot. Get in line. That's every time I eat ice cream. Or pretty much anything. Yeah dude, if you give me a whole bowl of queso, like, I'm not gonna feel great after it. Well, I've noticed one thing since I've been I've been eating more salads recently. I get bloated on salads. I might I

might be allergic to vegetables. I just eat too much. Yeah, thank you, pug. That was great. All time. I'm gonna need a cup of that. Pug, my take was that lactose intolerant is just not real and that people are just pussies. I think it's everyone's a little bit lactose intolerant. No one should actually eat as much dairy that we eat. That was my point was like, I've never, I eat so much ice cream, my stomach hurts almost every time.

That doesn't mean I'm lactose intolerant. It just means that I like to go to the limit. I eat ice cream to the limit. I eat ice cream to the limit. PFT, good Fire Fest Hank. My Fire Fest of the week is that I was watching clips of old football games earlier this week and there was an old Washington game, an old Redskins game. And watching the game, I felt excited to see that team. And it made me realize that the commanders is just, it's the worst name for a team you could possibly have.

Like say, they're not bringing the old name back. It's not gonna happen. Josh Harris has been very clear about that. You can't go back to Redskins. But just seeing those colors and the logo, it actually made me feel for the first time like, God damn, this new logo sucks so bad Yeah, well, I don't go there's the same. I don't I don't feel anything. It's different colors though

We got like a different shade of burgundy. Sometimes we got the black jersey used to pop more It used to pop more and it looked so cool. Yeah, it looked cool That's the only thing I care about it looked cool and it made me feel something and now I'm just depressed that we have the shitty name and they have to change the name You need a mascot they have to change it. Hey, yeah, Hank and I were talking about the mascot Be the Red Hogs cuz like yeah, well, that's okay. Let's just say hypothetical I hope they change the name, but if they keep the name we need like a cool logo That's not just the letter W. Yeah, that's on the side every time you wear that hat. I think it's a Wisconsin hat It's it's a bad logo

And it's a I don't like the name if they don't change name Hank was saying that they should actually have like a cartoon President on there and we're saying it'd be funny if they took every president's name put it in a hat and Then picked one out and then the cartoon of that one president was going to be our logo I mean rock if you got Garfield. It would rock if we got you got Van Buren, it'd be tough if we got William Howard Taft. Yeah, big fat guy on there. Yeah. FDR would be funny to Yep. Teddy Roosevelt Obama. Teddy Roosevelt would rock

Teddy Roosevelt rock because everybody can everybody loves Teddy Roosevelt. He saved football. He he absolutely plays as a cartoon character. Yeah, be great. And Hank, Hank will appreciate this. He actually got shot during speech. Hank. Yeah, so you can get behind him. Allegedly. And he finished the speech. Yeah, allegedly. I think you need to be the Red Hawks. Yeah, the hogs would be great. The Red Hawks would be great.

But it's, it sucks. It's such a bad name. Nobody likes the name. People that root for the team don't like for the name. People that happen to catch on the bottom line of ESPN, the word commanders, they don't even watch the game. They see that word and they're like, ew, yeah, bad name. It makes everybody's football watching experience worse. It's a shitty name. Change it to something else. And also give me a fun logo to look at. Yeah, because the W the W sucks. I agree with you All right, my fire fest. I got to the first one's quick I feel like I'm headed into an all-time bad football weekend because

The Badgers are 16 point underdogs to bam. I'm going to that game and then the Bears play Sunday night football against the Texans Let's just say beware of hackers. I Think I'm I think I'm gonna be in a world of hurt late Sunday night. So all the people who just love just soaking in my misery, I had a lot of Packers fans be like, it just didn't hit the same on Monday, having to listen to you be happy about 1-0. You're gonna get it.

It's one thing if your team's bad and you watch them and it's buried in like an early game slate and nobody really Is that close attention to it? It's another thing if your team sucks and everybody watch and I'm doing the bookends Yeah, the the Badgers played 11 a.m On Saturday and then the Bears play the last game of football on Sunday So I'm basically bookending what could be a disaster for me You're gonna get a lot of potentially if you if you lose, not ready for prime time. Yes, yes.

And then my other one is we went, so we had Brooks and Taylor Gooch on the show in studio because the Liv Tour is here. If you're looking to go watch some Liv golf, Bowling Brook, that's where they're playing. We went out and played with Brooks today. Yep. Video should be out by what, 7 p.m. tonight, Max?

No. Oh. Not gonna press the button? Alright, well just tell Max to press the button and the video will come out. But anyway, we went, we had fun. TBD. Video will be out. TBD. Got back, hour and a half back. A lot of traffic, rush hour. Got back. Jerry, my caddy, who I drove with, as we're leaving the course,

I, Ryan Poles was playing in the, in the program as well. So I went to go say hello to him and I said, Jerry, here's, here's the valet ticket here, my clubs, I'll meet you at the car in 10 minutes. Just make sure my clubs get in the car. Got all the way back to the office. Hank had gotten a call from the live tour that my clubs are in Bolingbrook. And if you know how I like golf, I don't think I'm ever getting them back. Yeah, my I care enough to get them. I thought when I when I found out the news, I was like, big cat is just gonna quit golf now. Yeah, the clubs are too far away too

far away. Those are lost. Yeah, they're never getting them. That's the universe telling me what it is. I'm not going to golf anymore. Unless now get some back for me. They're never coming back to be fair to Jerry I was talking to him afterwards and he said that Hank went up to the car too and sat in the car Let me finish let me finish he said that you went to the car and that you sat in big cat's car and then you left and Then you got in your the car and that you sat in Big Cat's car and then you left and then you got in your own car and drove home.

So that makes you equally responsible to Jersey Jerry for not picking up the clubs. What Jerry didn't mention is the reason why Hank had to go to my car is because Jerry couldn't figure out how to put my car in park. Yeah, but you're not seeing... There's a button that you just press for park and Jerry had been sitting in the parking lot with his foot on the brake for Like 10 minutes waiting for Hank to save him Yeah, you're missing the force for the good news though Hank at one point was next to the car that was supposed to have the

Clubs in the Jerry Jersey Jerry should have loaded into the into the truck and then Hank left that car So he's equally to blame as Jersey Jerry. Yeah, so they're gone. Oh, well. That's it for me in golf. That was my golf career. Clubs left, 45 minutes away. Death. Maybe we'll play that course in the spring or something. Maybe they'll just hold my clubs. You just treat it like a country club?

Maybe just do like a giveaway. Yeah. I mean, they're just there. Just do like a scavenger hunt and leave them around the course. I told Jerry that it's his responsibility to get him back. I don't have high hopes for him to get him back. I don't have high hopes for him to get him back. I don't really care.

But I want to, I'd prefer to have them back. But yeah, in terms of losing things, golf clubs, whatever. That's almost like a canceling plans rush that you could get. Like I'm not golfing anymore. My clubs are 45 minutes away. I don't have clubs. So you could just put them outside for the live tour event with a sign that said Free to a good home. Yeah, we'll figure it out. I didn't when I say we'll figure out we won't

Someone else will and if they don't Then it's figured out Okay, max finish soft you got one Yeah, it can be quick It's basically a continuation of last week's fire fest when I said that I was snoring. Oh, no, I just Got told maybe In a serious note probably 5,000 times My my DMS forever will just be

rent remedies on how to Stop snoring and at the end of the day, they're all just like doctors telling me that I'm fat. Yeah I actually had a doctor dr. Dan hit me up and say you're fat. He's fat Yeah, so that was basically the whole thing and then I'm I'm saying publicly now that I am going on a diet at the start Of football season to get ahead of The have been dieting. Yeah. Yeah, so let's go. I know we've been I've been lifting but but Today you were today we When we get meals together we have to get we have to get healthy meals

I think what we need to never going to open we need We're all kind of in the same boat. Here's what we got to do. Whoa. Whoa. Whoa. Whoa that you are You trying to eat health factor fiction you were on the phone today and you were saying like I want to eat something healthy Yeah, we're not in the same way of wanting to eat factor fiction, you were on the phone today and you were saying like, I want to eat something healthy. Yeah, we're not in the same mode of wanting to eat healthy. Also, Hank, factor fiction, you're shitting your brains out constantly. Maybe you could mix in a salad. In the same, here's the solution. Here's the solution. Like obviously me and PFT are not in the same boat. Well, he's got high cholesterol. I have high cholesterol, Max. Don't say I'm not fat. Here a solution, but that's not what I'm saying

Here's a solution. It's very easy. Why am I getting worked up? This is a sundaes or a no-fly zone We can't do it on Sundays Thursdays. We eat healthy. That's fit. I'm that's fair I'm willing to because it's it's really like Sundays are my cheat day. I'm just like I don't give a fuck. We're gonna sit and watch football I'm gonna eat whatever I want to eat Thursdays are the unnecessary let's try to be as a group trying to eat a little healthier Maybe we have Donnie start cooking us meals on Thursday. I'm down with that. I'll pay for it. I don't care I think we sure we just order from the place that has salads as an option Yeah

but like Good set like I don't like sometimes we'll get a place that'll have like two salad options. They're both shit Yeah, no, we need to know like there's nothing worse than like getting food from a good place man You're just eating shit sound all you got to do and I say this is someone who fluctuates weight more than Oprah Any the only time it's ever worked for me, which I've been doing recently is just during the week. It's no carbs now That's bullshit. Okay. Well, that's so that's the way you got to do it No, but I I would like low. No, no calories are the end I don't think carbs are the enemy easy calories in calories out. I mean I need my oats

You got to have those calories you eat if you don't eat carbs the weight will come on But that's because it's cat like you just have to like put your I Just have your steak every night during the week Yeah, no carbs, but like that isn't like it that's that is not how I will be doing okay yeah I I think I'll do we I'll eat like sweet potatoes like though like all right then you just stay fat and snoring yeah no you sweet potatoes off you're not the fucking king of weight loss over here. I'm not, but I'm telling you- You're the only guy who's ever lost weight on the fucking planet. No, I'm telling you the only time I've ever been able to lose weight is because I just go no carbs.

But people lose weight in different ways. But I've tried every way, and the only way. But you are different, it's not like you are the only way. But also Big Cat says that he fluctuates more than Oprah. That's true. When he's not eating carbs, he loses weight. Correct. And the second he has a carbohydrate, he's back up.

I'm like pug eating ice cream. I think Max is right. There's a lot of different diets that can work and they can work in short term. But Max, we just gotta be healthy overall. Correct. Let's just be healthy overall. I don't know why, I wasn't expecting to get this fired up during this. I'm just trying to help you.

No carbs is what's worked for me. For you. But it would work for you. That wouldn't work for me. Yes, it wouldn't Yes, it would be Got to eat a lot of no more because I I I wouldn't do it. I Boiled eggs every morning like that that wouldn't I wouldn't do it like that

It like then on weekends you can eat whatever you want Maybe a couple of sides him first doing suicides before the podcast him first diet You can do whatever you want.
