and Jules is what they call them, they call them that after this interview.
We have NBA Awards, Hot Seat Cool Throne, Guys on Chicks, and the Mount Rushmore of

Welcome to part of my take presented by the Cash App, go download it right now, put in
code BARSTOOL, you get $5 and $5 to ASPCA, today is Wednesday, June 26th, do we care
about the NBA Awards?
I don't really, but I do care about people who care about the NBA Awards, so put it
this way, wasn't really interested in seeing who won the MVP, Giannis won, I think that's
probably fair, right?
Well, no, most people, there's a lot of people who wanted James Harden, but yeah, so I didn't
really care, I think like Giannis, yeah, good decision, good basketball player, but I did
start to care once Daryl Maury and the Rockets get involved and they start tweeting out very
bitter things about James Harden and his man boobs not winning the NBA MVP, because then
at that point now it becomes a story.
Daryl Maury did an interview on the red carpet, well actually let me back up, I don't care
because this is the most NFL move by the NBA to make the awards after everything's done,
like who cares, I was actually shocked that it was happening, I looked on Twitter, I was
like wait, we didn't already decide the MVP, I remember the days when we gave out the MVP
in the second round and then we had awkward moments when Dirk won his MVP after losing
in the first round as the one seed, those are the moments that I remember, I want those
moments back, I don't want a fucking award show on a random Monday in June.
This would be a good time for Major League Baseball to do their awards, it feels just
as appropriate as when they do it.
Major League Baseball does it like over Thanksgiving, they're like hey here's who won the Cy Young.
And so they count the awards, they don't include postseason right, so it doesn't matter what
you do after the end of the regular season, that's already been decided.
But mentally we do as fans, like they've already cast their vote before the postseason starts,
but I'm thinking of course James Harden didn't win it because the Rockets flamed out again,
like that makes sense to me.
But apparently that's not how it works, it's so stupid that they do it this way, they should
just do it right before the playoffs, get everyone to be like hey here are the awards
for the season.
So the Rockets, Daryl Mori on the red carpet trying to put a wet towel on these rumors
that Chris Paul and James Harden hate each other, that guy, I don't know who dressed
him, who got him ready, but he looked like he hasn't shaved in forever, he looks like
he hasn't slept, and he basically had to get in front of everyone and be like did you hear
his speech, he said why aren't we talking about the Rockets being the Western Conference
favorites next year, why aren't we talking about this.
Why isn't anybody having that discussion, everyone should be, that's such an electric
point to bring up right now.
Let's definitely talk about 2020 odds in June.
Daryl Mori is like one of those nerds that has tried to like roughen his edges a little
bit.
To me he looks like if Mickey Rourke played Darren Ravel in a movie, Ravel grew out that
stubble, got punched in the face a few times in Reno, and woke up after a bender.
That's Daryl Mori.
The Rockets stuff is so funny to me because Chris Paul also had a quote that was essentially
the I'm not owned, I'm not owned as I shrank the drill tweet, he said I never asked for
a trade, I never demanded a trade, I'll be in Houston, I'm happy about that, I'm very
happy about that, I'm good.
I'm very happy about it.
I'm not laughing.
This is so funny.
You guys thinking that me, Chris Paul, notorious tough person to play with, is not vibing
with James Harden, also notorious tough person to play with?
That's funny to me, guys.
I'm laughing here.
That's a joke.
That's how funny it is.
Doesn't the NFL, they do it the night before the Super Bowl?
Correct.
I like that.
Does that make sense?
That's actually the best.
The NFL, say what you want about their schedule because they do the thing where they like
announce when they're going to announce the schedule for next year, they're big on like
announcements of announcements, they basically hand out save the dates all year round, they
get and save the dates to put on your refrigerator from the NFL from point A to point Z, with
the NFL at least they do that at like an appropriate time.
Right.
Black tie affair night before the Super Bowl.
This is where I get exhausted by this league and I love the NBA and I love basketball but
when you have an award show in June, I get exhausted and to be honest, I think you should
have won MVP.
A lot of people were mad.
I don't really even know what other awards got handed out.
I think Coach Buds won the, so Milwaukee took home coach of the year and MVP.
Doc Rivers reaction, that was great.
Oh yeah, he was mad.
Lou Williams won sixth man of the year for like the seventh time in a row, which is hilarious
because he's just like, can we just say Lou Williams is awesome?
Like he's the sixth man because he comes off the bench, but he's a starter because he's
fucking awesome.
Yeah, he's fresh like that's why they should bring that great award.
We've talked about that like an impact sub is better than the starter sometimes.
What was Doc Rivers reaction?
Was it like the famous GIF of him where he just looks puzzled?
It was more like angry.
It was more like, what the fuck?
He thought he was about to walk up to the stage and when they called someone else, he
was just like, he gave like a dirty look and was just like kind of shook his head.
I'll say this, Doc Rivers appeared to be a better coach when he had his son on the team
because his son was such like a shit head that if you could squeeze a little bit of
blood out of Austin Rivers, then you looked like a fucking genius.
You should not have gotten rid of one of your worst players.
I'm looking through the awards right now, lifetime achievement, Magic Johnson and Larry
Bird.
Genie bus actually answered like for the first time to the media, what happened with Magic?
She just essentially said, yeah, I kind of wish he had told me, but magic will be magic.
So he gets a pass for that house highlights moment of the year, Derek Rose for dropping
that 50 burger.
That's legit moment of the year teammate of the year and sportsmanship award of the year
Mike Connelly, Jr. won both.
Okay.
So what is your made of the year mean?
I don't know.
This means like if you're rich and you don't act rich, then you get teammate of the year.
If you buy like everyone dinner, yeah, you're not showing up your teammates.
Yeah.
The assist of the year, which community assist award, Bradley Beal, nice.
That's good.
They should just do a single assist of the year.
Yes.
They should do like dribble of the year, assist of the year, this league of the year, tweet
of the year, charge of the year, emoji of the year, something for the referees, like
call of the year.
Yes.
Good call of the year.
Joey Crawford comes up and dances and does like skips across the stage.
Yeah.
And then blows his whistle.
Boom.
They really do need to do take it.
The better one.
Yeah.
I guess that's why we have the takies.
Yes.
That is exactly why we have the takies.
So yeah, overall, I don't really care about the NBA awards.
I do care about this league coming up for the free agency.
You know, we should do, we should have as an award in the takies, the dock rivers of
the year and then give it to not dock rivers and just see what his reaction is.
Get him even more mad.
Come on.
Hank Kemba Walker is now a quiet suitor for Stealth.
Stealth suitor for the, or the Celtics or Stealth suitor for Kemba Walker thoughts.
It'd be awesome.
Makes a lot of sense.
He's already got some New England roots, Yukon is a bit of a hero already.
He's a husky.
He's a husky and he's an amazing player.
Yeah.
He is.
He's one of those guys.
It's like he's played in Charlotte.
So people haven't, he might not have got the recognition that some other players have
got, but he would be great.
The money though is so, the Super Max is so silly.
That's the list.
This league it's like.
Right.
It's $221 million.
It's earned with the Hornets versus I think 150 or 140 with any other team.
Now it's four years versus five years.
So it's not exactly Apple storage, but it's always funny when we hear like, I feel, if
the Hornets offer him the Super Max, which they sort of have to do, he's got to take
it.
Right.
So how do they have to help?
How do the Celtics?
They don't have to.
Like a mystery suitor out of all this.
Why weren't we talking about the Celtics last week?
I don't know.
I guess because there's interest now and the Celtics like Horford's gone.
The Celtics realize that they're probably going to be getting rid of a lot of their
money.
Cleaning house.
Yeah.
So they don't have to, but it's the, the Super Max is so fascinating because essentially
was supposed to, it was put in place so that players stay on these teams.
But then you get a classic Campbell Walker where a Campbell Walker is.
And Anthony Davis.
Yeah.
But well, Anthony Davis didn't want to get Super Max.
That's why he wanted to trade.
But it's, Campbell Walker is like the perfect case of he's good, but he's not Super Max
good.
So they gave it such a cool term, Super Max, that it's tough to turn down.
He should have done, the Hornets should have done the Boogie Cousins and traded them.
Because if you trade someone, they can't get the Super Max.
That's why Boogie Cousins didn't want to get traded and basically almost defend yourself
from stupidity.
You're like, Hey, Campbell Walker, we really like you, but we know we're going to be dumb
and offer you $221 million.
So let's just eliminate this problem.
Wait.
So then the new team, can they do the Super Max?
No.
They can't.
They just take the Super Max off the table entirely.
Now what's the section 10 contract?
I'm learning all sorts of these terms from Woj.
I don't know what that is.
Woj is tweeting out these bombs expecting me to understand what a section 10 contract
is.
I think that's what Mello's going to get maybe.
There's some contract for Mello.
I don't understand any of these contracts in the NBA.
The, Hey, Mello seems pretty depressed because he's thrown up jumpers in his gym by himself
contract.
Yeah.
That's just, let's just lay him under the table.
Yeah.
Let him play.
Have Carmelo be an intern.
Right.
Exactly.
A working internship for the Lakers.
I think Kauai's going to stay in Toronto.
We're going to do a Sunday night.
We're going to do a full recap of this league cause we're going to tape after the, the 6pm.
All the, all these things I feel like have been decided.
Like Kyrie is already signed with the Nets.
Yeah.
There's been some handshake deals going on.
So Kimba is, he's kind of like a sane Kyrie.
Right.
He's like a better version of Kyrie Irving that you'd want right now, which is weird to
say that cause like a year and a half ago Kyrie Irving was, you know, he was the shit.
He was the guy.
Yeah.
But then did you see those quotes where too much YouTube?
I think, I really think it's not just the flatter thing.
I think Kyrie Irving spends an inordinate amount of time on YouTube.
There was this tweet that was the quotes from Kyrie Irving's basically last four or five
years where essentially he said that he hated like all his teammates and all his coaches
at every stop.
Like he, he, he wanted to demand a trade if LeBron came back to Cleveland, then he couldn't
get along with LeBron, then he couldn't get along with like the Celtics and Danny Angel
Brad Stevens.
Like, Hey man, eventually you are the asshole.
Right.
He should just play in big three.
Right.
Yeah.
They, they beefed now though.
They fight.
Yeah.
Yeah.
There was a big fight.
I think it was like Roy Smith versus who is it?
Josh Harris.
Josh, Josh, Josh Smith always shooting threes.
Josh, I fucking love Josh Smith because he was just always like, Hey, I'm open for three
always.
Um, so yeah, we'll get to this league on Sunday when it all breaks.
We need to talk about the other this league and that is the New York Mets being an absolute
dumpster fire.
Well, it's like it's a competition between the Mets and the Knicks to see who can be
more embarrassing, which I love.
Same colors.
It's just like, Oh, wait.
Hold on.
Shout out to the Knicks.
The Knicks need credit for, because the Knicks are at a point where they should get credit
for not doing dumb things.
Not taking Chris Paul's contract was the most anti-Knicks, Knicks thing that has ever been
done.
But I don't know if it was like their decision not to take the contract.
But they, but they, they walked into it.
That's a classic Knicks move saying, Oh, Chris Paul, he used to be awesome.
Let's take on three years, $40 million a year.
We'll sell some tickets at the garden.
Right.
James Dolan just couldn't hear his phone ring because he was, he was jamming with his
band.
But they need credit.
I'm going to give the credit.
I'm going to give the Knicks credit when they don't fuck up because I think it's only
right.
So now what they've been doing an excellent job at is just keeping their mouth shut while
the Mets are the ones that have the entire distraction because not only, I guess the general
manager of the Mets is texting in game roster moves to the manager while he's at home, not
even at the stadium.
Correct.
I love that.
Like you're calling in a rules violation at the USGA.
It's wonderful.
Chris and now I'm sure Mets fans will tell me I'm way off on here, but I'm going to
throw something out there that I feel like this story.
It happens.
It's a self fulfilling prophecy when you, when you go down this spiral of every move
is, you know, you have a guy try to fight a reporter on Sunday night.
You have Mickey Callaway being an absolute idiot.
So when things start to spiral, every move gets scrutinized and becomes the dumbest move
ever.
I would guess that most teams, not maybe most teams, but a lot of teams in major league
baseball actually have this in place where the analytics guys hand the manager a sheet
and they're like, this is what you, this is the plan today because a lot of teams do that
now where they essentially say, here's the plan for what we're going to do and basically
takes the decision making out of the manager's hands.
The fact that it was the GM who used to be an agent who's texting from his house makes
it ridiculous and very Mets and that's where it becomes, ha ha, look at the Mets.
Like if he was in the, in the stadium, I feel like it's not even a story, but because he's
sitting at home watching on TV and texting these moves, it's crazy.
It is insane that he's, that he's doing that.
Like yeah, if I'm sure a lot of teams have an arrangement where they have a direct line
from the club suite or whatever, a lot of the analytics guys basically tell the manager
what to do at this point.
Exactly.
I just say take away their pinstripes.
Yeah.
The Mets just haven't earned their pinstripes in the last, what, 35 years?
Yeah.
And then they had the aforementioned Jason Vargas, Mickey Calloway trying to fight a,
was it a news day?
I didn't even knew news day was still around news week.
News max.
Journalist.
Essentially.
Now, here's the story.
And I actually kind of side with Mickey Calloway here.
Hear me out.
They lose a heartbreaker to the Cubs, the Cubs win, you know, I think Javi Baez hit a home
run like the eighth inning to win that game.
And essentially, Mickey Calloway got dressed and was walking out of his office and the
news day reporter news week, whatever said, see you tomorrow, which is the classic like,
oh, half day, move the asshole in the office polls, go taking it off early at, you know,
at 515.
You literally say that every time somebody does a joke to do that, right?
You're being an ironic asshole.
Correct.
Gotcha.
It's like the open bar.
Totally different.
Like, hey, let me buy you a beer at an open bar.
Classic.
Right.
And I think that I have Mickey Calloway's back there.
I think that would piss me off.
I, yeah, I kind of agree with that, too.
And if you look at what's going on in our country as a whole, you're allowed to body
slam journalists.
True.
You get one a year and you can still get elected to the Senate.
Now, Jason Vargas is a different story because essentially the way I read it, he just stared
at the reporter.
And then when the reporter noticed that they were locking eyes, he just said, I will knock
you the fuck out.
I like that.
That's a, that is a, that's a Ryan Leaf classic.
Junior Seau having to break up Ryan Leaf, trying to fight a reporter in the San Diego
Chargers locker.
Here's the problem though.
If you're going to threaten a reporter, you can't let the reporter leave without getting
into the physical altercation because what do you think they're going to do?
They're a reporter.
They're going to report it.
They're going to report it.
Right.
So you need to, you need to make hay while the sun shines, so to speak.
You need to, you have those basically five to 10 minutes to kick his ass.
To kick a reporter's ass.
Yes.
Yep.
And then he apologized, but didn't apologize.
Did I have that right?
And then had to go back and apologize?
Yeah.
He apologized to fake apology and then I guess somebody else told him, wait, you stick around,
your real apology is coming.
Well, we did like a sorry, not sorry, and then people on Twitter freaked the fuck out
and then they basically made him come back out where like you actually have to say sorry.
Oh, that's so good.
So the Mets, I mean, this is, it really does spiral fast.
One word speaking to spiral fast.
Yeah.
Tebow.
That's all.
You need it.
You need it.
How much, how much more clear can the opportunity get for the New York Mets?
Your entire team is falling apart.
You're fucking managers threatening to fight reporters.
You've got a general manager that's cucking your manager.
Everything's going to hell in a hand basket.
There's one clear pathway out of this and that's Tim Tebow.
Why don't they make Tebow the manager because he can't hit a baseball, right?
And so he won't ever threaten to fight a reporter, right?
He'll just threaten to circumcise in worst case scenario.
That would be good to have Tebow be the manager and just have him take all the heat.
Yeah.
Okay.
Listen, bring a pack in whatever.
But not as a baseball player.
Yeah.
He's terrible.
Manager slash leadoff hitter.
Maybe, no, kind of like when they, you know, when a team gets like the angels got the rally
monkey or the cricket that the Royals had a few years ago, just have Tebow, you know,
maybe carry around a dog bone and be like, Hey, it's, it's Timmy or stray dog or just
put Tim, Tim Tebow in a cage in center field and then just take like a curtain off the
cage whenever you're down by two runs late in the ball game.
Hold the devil rate tank and have him just swim laps in the center field by Tim.
You're actually just training for the Olympics next year in Japan.
Yeah.
No, it'll just be like an Astro turf area with a tire that he can flip over and box
jumps that he can do.
These are good ideas.
That's a rally Tebow.
These are good ideas.
Okay.
Let's get to our hot seat, cool throne before we do that.
If you want to watch Julian Edelman, who's very attractive, want to watch his interview
barcelgold.com slash PMT go watch, you can watch all of our interviews, including the Monday
episode with Ryan Russel and Mark Titus and thank you to everyone who listened and enjoyed
it.
Yeah.
I got a lot of really, really nice notes from people about that, probably more so than
any other episode that we've ever done.
I'm glad that people liked it.
It's, uh, it's nice to do something a little bit different every now and again.
So hopefully you enjoyed it.
It was entertaining for you.
If you got something more from it, that's awesome too.
Don't quit your job just because of that.
Don't quit your job just because we said that at one point we quit our jobs.
Yeah.
Um, but if that's the path that you were going down anyways, I'm not going to stop.
Although if you do quit your job and become super successful, make sure you mention that
podcast when you do hit it big time.
Oh yeah.
Absolutely.
Yeah.
I was just a regular guy and then I listened to these fucking idiots and now I run the
world at the acceptance speech.
I want it to be us first, then God, then your parents.
Yeah.
Then Marlon's man.
Okay.
So, uh, go watch barcelgold.com slash PMT and thank you everyone for listening and reaching
out.
We appreciate you guys appreciating it.
Appreciate the appreciation.
Appreciate you.
Yeah.
Cool.
Throne.
Hank, start.
My hot seat is the Warriors training staff.
So obviously since the Durant injury, there's been rumors about how Durant was like ripped
shit over the Warriors training staff for kind of lying to him and telling him that the
injury wasn't as bad and you wouldn't, wouldn't have to worry about getting it re-injured
if he came back, which he obviously did.
Then, uh, Iguodala went on the breakfast club today and he basically revealed himself
that he had a fractured leg in the 2018 playoffs, but that was kept under wraps and downplayed
to the media.
Yikes.
And he also said, like they price, the Warriors price their real fans out.
So he took some shots and he really fueled the fire that the Warriors training staff
is a little sketchy and, uh, just looks after themselves.
Well, I think that's true.
They definitely did price a lot of the local fans out, but that, I don't think that was
San Francisco.
They moved to San Francisco.
Yeah.
Yeah.
There you go.
Right there.
Yeah.
They only sold seats to partial owners that were going to abuse players at the courtside.
The training staff thing is real though.
If you get a bad training staff, if you get the mark of a bad training staff, bad medical
team, I feel like that, that has a lot, like the sons essentially got free agents and guys
for a while there because everyone said, wow, their training staff was amazing, right?
And so it's the reverse with the training staff that takes advantage of guys.
And then you have the whole Kawai load management.
Oh man, the, the Raptors did a great job with his load management this year.
And then the reverse of the team that lost to them saying they basically run the guys
into the ground.
And like a rumor is a rumor, but when Iguodala says I myself, I was injured, I knew what
I had and they basically, I'm telling you that they tried to keep it under wraps and
downplayed it to the media like that, that basically confirms what they did to Durant.
But doesn't that happen in every other sport where somebody has an injury?
Like in hockey, it happens all the time.
You don't want to let your opponent know exactly where you're weak at, right?
They don't want, they want your opponent to be thinking that Iggy could come back any,
any giving day.
Like it's just a bonus.
True.
But the problem is obviously Kevin Durant, if they did actually tell him there's no
chance that he could re-injure it more, then it becomes a big deal.
That is a very big deal right there.
I'm speaking for like Iggy at that, as that one like specific example.
Also Steph Curry gets injured every single year.
Maybe it was actually.
Maybe he's never injured.
Maybe he's never injured and they just keep misdiagnosing him.
They just say that you're injured when he feels totally healthy.
And then he's like, Oh, I got to sit out today.
Right.
He just has small ankles.
They're just Dr. Nick for the Simpsons.
They just, everything they get wrong, both good and bad.
They went to Oakland Upstairs Medical College.
What's your cool throne, Hank?
Europe.
Ooh.
I'm up.
Europe.
Oh.
Europe.
Europe.
They swept the NBA major awards.
Greek MVP, French defensive player of the year, Slovenian rookie of the year.
And Toronto won the NBA title.
Yeah.
It's your most European country in North America.
Yeah.
So yeah, Europe's on the cool throne.
I guess you could have put America on the hot seat, but I needed a cool throne, so I
put Europe there.
Okay.
That's tough.
Tough look for a stateside.
Fuck.
But that means we finish second.
Yes.
So across the board.
So we finish first.
So we finish first on aggregate.
Mm-hmm.
Okay.
What do you got?
PFT.
My hot seat is big ballers.
Yeah.
All big ballers are on the hot seat because LaVar Ball is no longer allowed to be featured
on ESPN anymore after he made the mistake of hitting on Malik Kerem on the air as opposed
to everybody else there that hits on or off the air.
Right.
So tough break for big balls.
Jill and Rose's married to her.
Yeah.
That's true.
But yeah, this is a tough look for big ballers.
There were no warning signs that something like this was going to happen where maybe
he was going to be a loose cannon and say something inappropriate on the air.
It's fine when you do it to a Cuomo brother, but when you start doing it to Malik Kerem,
it's an issue.
When you, when Stephen A. Smith gives you the stink eye.
Yeah.
When Stephen A. Smith is like, this man is too horny for me to be sitting next to.
You have a problem that you need to address.
That's too far.
Too horny.
What's your...
My other hot seat is the new Sunday Night Football Song.
So the Oh Sunday Night, you know, the one that we finally got around to acknowledging.
Yep.
They're being sued for using that song because it's too much of a ripoff of another song.
Which is?
I forget the name of the song.
Underpressure?
Yes.
Sting.
No.
No.
It is Vanilla Ice Ice Baby.
Got it.
Because it has the...
Yeah.
Oh Sunday Night.
Yeah.
So I'm thinking they're going to bring back Waitin' All Day for Sunday Night.
I think they have to go back to the hits, right?
Hell yes.
That would be amazing.
I've been waitin' all day for Waitin' All Day for Sunday Night.
Same.
Yeah.
Same.
That would be nice.
So we got our fingers crossed for that.
My cool throne is Earth.
Because Jim Ursay, famous philanthropist, he just donated, I want to say, five million
dollars plus to a charity called Earth...
Hang on.
What is it called?
Client Earth.
So it's a group of lawyers that sue for environmental causes.
And Jim Ursay did this by buying two guitars at auction.
One he bought a six-string acoustic from Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd, the one you used
to record that song for $900,000.
And he bought the black strat for over four million dollars.
So I think we've addressed this before, but it's worth mentioning again that Jim Ursay
actually believes that every guitar that's ever been played contains the music that has
been played on in the past.
So he actually thinks that one day scientists will be able to extract the original sound
of Wish You Were Here out of that instrument now that he has it.
I don't see where he's wrong.
No, I don't either.
Yeah.
But yeah.
So he spent $5 million on this.
He's addicted to guitars.
He is.
I think he's got like 300 guitars.
Jesus Christ.
All right.
My hot seat is Cam Newton.
So you saw the video, Cam Newton offering $1,500 cash to someone sitting in first class on
a flight to France.
Was it even first class?
I think it was just extra leg room.
Extra leg room.
Yeah.
Okay.
He's a coach killer.
So this is the hot seat is because Cam Newton, like no one ever would do that deal.
You have to offer $20,000, $30,000.
I don't even know if I would still do that because when you mentally get ready for a
flight that far, you, you can't give up any kind of extra perks or anything.
You can't go backwards.
You cannot.
I would say a little bit less than that, depending on how big the individual in question
was.
Now, if it were me, I'd probably, I'd considered if he came at me with like $5,000 as a starting
price, but I will say that if you are like a Falcons fan or if you're a Saints fan and
Cam Newton comes up to you to ask you this favor, this is like the moment of your life.
This is the best possible scenario where you get, you're essentially tackling Cam Newton.
Yeah.
You're punking Cam Newton.
And it's a story.
He could offer you $50,000, $100,000 and you would be like, no, just so you could say
like I inconvenienced him on this trip across the Atlantic.
I'm the guy who said no to Cam Newton.
Cam Newton is made or is going to make $140 million currently or he's made $104 million
currently.
He has to offer $50,000 or at least like throwing that coat that looks like it's made out of
Dalmatians.
Yeah.
Or maybe the little lucky rabbit thing that he's got.
Yeah.
If you have the, the Pharrell hat, give me the Pharrell hat.
The real problem is Cam Newton should have just not gone on that flight.
Wait, I have, I have 16 C.
OK, I'll just wait till tomorrow.
My people just go and book me a real seat on this one.
So this was the problem because it was a replacement flight.
So this was the one that he got moved on to, which is why he didn't have the extra leg.
I still wouldn't go.
Listen, Vince Young had it all figured out.
Vince Young to his credit, he would just charter an entire commercial
Southwest to Southwest flight of France.
Sure. Suist.
Sure.
The Suist.
There's no, there's no first class on Southwest, but sure.
That's right.
Just a cattle.
Well, everybody's first class right on Southwest.
No one is everyone.
Everyone is no one.
Everyone is.
All right.
My other hot seat is the Walendas.
I fucking hate those people.
That's all I wanted to say.
Me too.
They I'm so sick of them.
I agree.
And the the make me watch to think that somebody's going to fall
and then you get strapped in there on straps.
And the sisters singing about glory to God the whole time.
Because, you know, really God cares about you being an idiot
and walking on a high wire over Times Square.
Shut up.
Yeah.
Do you think if God had an option of whose life to save the rich lady
that was walking 50 stories above Times Square, hooked on to a
harness, putting her life in danger, or like an orphan in Syria
that was trying to hide from cluster bombs?
Which one do you think God would choose?
Fuck the Walendas.
So sick of them.
And it is bullshit that you watch it and you're just hoping.
And it's probably on a tape to lay.
So even if they did fall, we wouldn't get to see it.
The whole thing sucks.
That's the next time they do it, they're going to do a fake cut
to commercial to make you think that somebody died.
That's smart.
Yeah.
All right.
My cool throne is integrated ads because this league has now gone,
has sold out.
And we have our good friend, Blake Griffin, who's up for Blake of the year.
Is this breaking moves that you're doing right now?
Oh, yeah.
Is it breaking moves?
No, no, it's not breaking moves.
Blake Griffin, who's up for Blake of the year, tweeted, Hey,
Boogie cousins, unlike Paul Pierce, I scored number twos in the basket
and not on the court.
So hashtag soft like Charmin hashtag Charmin partner.
And then Boogie cousins went back with the beef and said, Paul Pierce,
asked my two gold medals, who the real amateurs are.
Damn, two gold medals.
Fuck.
And and Blake Griffin, a soft like Charmin award, might look good
in your empty trophy case.
Damn.
Damn, really went after Blake.
So and then the best part about the whole thing was they went, you know,
it was very clearly a toilet paper ad and everyone was tweeting back
and Kendrick Perkins replied and said, hold up, did I miss something?
So he just didn't realize that it was an ad.
But he got involved.
He got involved.
He was ready to beef.
Kendrick Perkins could actually get involved in these ads because him
and Nick writes bets are just ridiculous when they eat a shit load of food.
Yes.
So that would be a perfect opportunity for for sponsorship from a toilet paper
company. I just love that everyone knows it's an ad.
And then Kendrick Perkins over the top is like, wait, we beefing?
Yeah, Perk doesn't know what hashtag ad means.
He just thinks it's like hashtag AD.
Yeah.
Also, RJ Barrett pulled the classic on his Instagram stories post with hashtag
NBA awards, Indochino and ad.
Which, by the way, is way better.
Way better to do that.
Way better if you're ever going to do an integrated ad like that.
Just straight up pull the Deshaun Jackson and just copy and paste the entire thing.
Always get so much more engagement.
Always.
OK, let's get to our interview with Julian Edelman before we do that.
A couple of quick words from our sponsors.
Mountain Dew.
Yes, we are sponsored by Mountain Dew.
Now it is a dream of a lifetime for us.
We are doers.

I'm sponsored by Mountain Dew.
Envision me stepping on your longboard with the Mountain Dew in my hand.
Bad ass, right?
OK, so Mountain Dew, go get your Mountain Dew and be a doer like us.
We also are brought to you by our friends at Movement.

And here he is, Julian Edelman.
Oh, OK, we now welcome on recurring guest, Super Bowl MVP T shirt.
Do I get a T shirt?
Oh, yeah, the recurring guest T shirt.
I'll be waiting for it.
OK, so Super Bowl MVP.
Since the last time you're on, you've won a Super Bowl MVP.
It is Julian Edelman of the New England Patriots.
Also a new contract and he's got a showtime special.
What is this thing? 100% documentary.
OK, so it's a documentary one night, one night, one night, one night.
You didn't want to do a mini-series in the 70 minutes.
Now, are we going to be in it?
Because I remember there was a camera crew that was tracking your recovery
when we went to interview you that one time.
What was that, like a year and a half ago?
So yeah, you guys couldn't be in it.
Oh, wow. You're just saying that you're just trying to get it.
If you were smart, you'd put us in it so that we tweet about it
because we're narcissistic.
Very much. You guys are in it.
OK, no way. There's no way we're in it.
I'm just letting you know you're in it.
All right, so Julian's here 100% watch it showtime on Thursday night.
Thursday night or Friday Friday, Friday, Friday, Friday, 28.
28. Nine o'clock Friday night is going to be a pregame.
It's a pregame type pregame.
Pregame movie while you're watching 100%.
Yes, pregame while you're watching 100%.
So it's good to see you, man.
It's been a while.
Had you on a couple of those about a year and a half ago
when you were rehabbing your injury.
Let's start with the Super Bowl and MVP.
Do you have you noticed like a big difference in winning a Super Bowl?
The first two that you won and then winning a Super Bowl MVP?
Because I feel like you've been out there a lot more.
Not really, honestly.
I mean, I think I've probably been out the same.
Like, you know, I've got a documentary about you this time.
Yeah, but that was going on before we started filming that,
but like right after the injury, 2017.
But I mean, I guess there's a little more to it.
There's your little busier, but I don't know.
I just blacked out after each offseason.
You know what I mean?
You get so focused about the season and you just forget about all of those stuff.
How soon after injury were you like, I'm going to milk this.
I'm going to make some money off of it and make a documentary out of it.
Why? So I'll tell you the real story.
We were going to the year before we were going to have cameras around all playoffs
the year that we won the Super Bowl against Elena.
And I chickened out.
I was like, I don't want this.
I don't want to mess with my routine, you know, kind of superstitious with all that.
I want everything focused on football.
And so after we won the Super Bowl, my boy of soft comes to me
because that would have been a real good documentary to have.
Yeah, you think? Yeah, I think.
And so I was like, you know, you can't do that, whatever.
And then I got hurt and he came and came up to me and said, you know,
all these people want to do documentary on your recovery, this, that.
And we decided to take the opportunity to do ourselves, make our own one.
So that's what we did. That's awesome.
So and we will be in it because we did go up and see you while you're rehabbing
and interviewed you then.
So the Super Bowl itself, were you shocked at any point?
We were like, did they not know that like Tom's going to throw it to me all these times?
You were open on every play.
And that's your own your own doing a lot of the times.
But it felt like they were like, hey, we're just going to not cover Julian Edelman.
I don't know how to answer that.
I just tried to do my job, get open and catch the ball.
Sometimes, you know, our offensive, you know,
offense coordinator, Josh McDaniels, did a good job of moving me around to get matchups.
And, you know, we just kind of went with it.
You're doing Belichick's. Yeah, you are fine.
Yeah, I just did my job. That's fine.
And you expect to be that open during the game?
I mean, you always expect to be open when you have your number called.
See, this is Belichick's speech.
I mean, it goes back to the KC game, too.
I wanted to talk about that.
If you I tried, we almost lost that because of me.
Right. But the Patriots also had that thing where when you do Madden
and you find that one pass over the middle that your buddy can't guard
and you just keep running it.
That was to you over the middle, over and over and over.
And the the chiefs just couldn't guard it.
Hey, you know, we had a couple of different coverages.
We had a couple of different plays.
And you can't do this the whole interview.
No, I won't do it the whole interview.
But when it has anything to do with football, I'll probably end up doing this.
So I don't get Mother F by my coach. OK.
How about how about this?
What was the one play from the Super Bowl that you made that maybe us
fatso's at home watching the game on the couch didn't pick up on as being
like the key play of the game for you that you went back and saw in film?
Like that one that you showed, I forget what game.
It was probably the Super Bowl against the Falcons,
where you hit that little chip block on the guy and woke you up a little bit.
What was that play this year that you remember from the game
that maybe we didn't notice?
There was a play where I went in on the force again and, you know,
I tried to lay a little wood and I forgot who it was.
But he came and brought it to and it woke me up to.
I think it was early in the series, early in the game.
We were trying to run the ball and then, you know, they were stuffed in the box.
I mean, that was a good defense.
We can't just sit there and say, you know, we won that game full outright.
I mean, they had a defensive line that was insane.
So like it kind of affected everything.
And then they were bringing guys in the box and we're trying to do the other things.
And, you know, we ended up putting in a play that we hadn't ran for so long.
And it was just so happened to be a play where I'd go and drop in for the force.
And, you know, that was kind of those those types of plays that helped.
Do you like running the ball?
I do sometimes change it.
The Patriots kind of changed what I mean.
That's what Belichick does better than anyone is changes even midseason.
You guys became a power running team for a while there.
Yeah, I think, you know, each week you're trying to learn yourself.
You know, I've said this before, you don't know what kind of team you are in September.
You could be a completely different team going into December, depending on, you know,
the strengths of your team, the weaknesses of your team, what's going on in the league,
what people are playing against you.
So, you know, it's definitely, you know, I definitely like running the ball
because we got guys that are good with the ball in their hand.
You know, you got Rex, Sony, Sweetfeet, you know, it's a it's a Sweetfeet.
James White, Wisconsin, baby.
That's a cool big game.
He's got some Sweetfeet.
We got every Wisconsin running back who does anything good in the NFL.
I have to talk about all the time to try to change the narrative
from the guys that didn't do anything in the NFL.
Well, he's done a lot.
He's done a lot.
He's got 15 catches.
Yeah, Ron Dane.
That's what we're trying to change.
Exactly.
That's why I got to talk about the game.
I actually like Ron Dane.
Yeah, Ron Dane still lives in Madison.
Still, I think gets drunk all the time.
Hanks out in his varsity jacket.
It's pretty sweet gig, right?
If you're a legend in your college town, that's a good college town.
Right.
You you just graduated college.
Congrats on that.
Thank you. Thank you.
Yeah, go to any classes in the last year.
Did you get what we had to do online classes and we so so so talk.
We get online classes.
We doing online classes.
You guys are clowns.
You know, I had I had to do online class.
I had to do online classes, right?
And then I, you know, we did this.
Well, I have a huge team.
Yeah, right. Right.
So then I had to put together, you know, a paper and all these
you know, organizations that I worked with.
And, you know, we got it done.
You have to write a paper.
You have to do like a bibliography, all that.
MLA format, it was tough.
Yeah. So what did you major in?
General studies with the concentration in marketing and management.
Nice. So who's a more famous Ken State alumni?
You are a gun girl.
I would say Michael Keaton.
Oh, I didn't know that.
Drew, Drew Perry.
I don't know that either.
Price is right.
Walsh from the Eagles.
Damn.
Fucking hate James Harris, James Harrison, Josh Cribs.
Yeah. OK.
Tony O'Gates.
So are you up there?
I don't know. That was Joe Walsh.
Pretty cool hotel, hotel, California.
I mean, the Eagles is better than Patriots.
Yeah, that's a real lifetime.
Walk right into that one.
Do you have an addiction to hype videos?
Love a mean hype video.
You love a hype video.
So I mean, people don't know is Julian makes his own hype videos
and they're very well done and they're before every big game.
I think you're addicted to hype videos
because correct me if I'm wrong, you watch your own hype videos
what, 50 times, 100 times before each game?
I like I like to watch a good hype video.
I mean, I grew up watching Rocky Four montage
and like literally right before I go out to, you know,
football practice or a night before a game and get me fired up and,
you know, music, working out and storyline
in such a short amount of time, you can't go wrong.
I'd like to imagine that you you sit down on Thursday night
and you're the one that's editing together.
It's so hard.
You're so soft like using Final Cut C, C++ and all these other things.
You know, we actually use the real deal out there.
Yeah. Do you the one hype video that I noticed that was the
shit was before the Super Bowl, when it was the flashbacks to the Rams,
Patriots, the first one and what was that?
What was the theme of that one?
It was like something about time or something.
Whatever you do, you're doing a good job.
We appreciate it.
It was tough getting in the cartoon business.
You know, we started doing cartoon hype videos and, you know, what's up?
I know, I know, but I was just telling him how many,
how many times you watch each type video for real?
Probably three times, three, four times before the game, right before.
No, not before the game.
I have I have a playlist that I go through.
What's on that? Go ahead.
Well, let's see. Yeah.
Read us this playlist. You save them.
You have mixtapes called game playlist.
OK, you should make that public so that people can find it on Spotify.
I think you can.
Do we have it?
Don't make it public yet.
Let the interview run so everyone be like, oh, my God, you won't believe five
five songs you won't believe our Julian Edelman's playlist.
All four.
F plus L point point.
OK. A lot of Hans Zimmer.
I like the soundtrack of Interstellar.
So I have stay by that.
That movie sucked.
I loved that movie. OK.
If you watch it a second time, I've watched it like 10 times.
Yeah, it sucked the second time.
No, it was pretty good.
Well, there's a lot of like fake, deep stuff.
Yeah, right.
When that dude's sitting on the fucking
the big ship for like 85 years, that's hilarious.
And they come back and it's been like 10 seconds.
He's like, yo, I've been waiting for you.
Time is relevant.
Relevant, bro. It's three dimensions.
It's so stupid. OK.
I got a little shelf scene.
Yeah. Oh, my God.
She's sitting in the dust in the bookshelf.
Oh, my God.
Morse code. Morse code.
I mean, sticks.
OK. All right.
What else you got?
I got Tennessee Stud by Johnny Cash.
OK. Little Three Peep by Lil Wayne.
OK. Real Friends.
What's that like when Lil Wayne is out there like potentially
making songs about you, though?
Because like the whole black and yellow thing,
like he's a big sports fan.
So there's a chance that Lil Wayne's sitting down
actually like writing songs about Julian Edelman.
That's got to be weird.
I haven't heard one. Yeah.
Not yet. So he hasn't got a Patriot song yet.
Yeah. A lot of you know how it is.
People don't like us.
People don't like us. Is that true?
I mean, Tom Brady will get Tom will get his name in there.
Gronk. Everyone else were just kind of.
Do you like the hate?
Do you like that people don't like you?
I kind of do. Yeah.
I guess. I mean, it's when you're doing something good
and people hate you and you're getting hated on.
I mean, it means you're doing something right.
Yeah. Is there ever like a little bit of you that's like,
come on, I work really hard.
We're a very successful team.
We do things the right way.
Show us a little bit of love.
Like it's nice to be like right.
Right. I can imagine in your position,
it's nice to prove haters wrong.
That's a good feeling.
But there's got to be like a little party that's like,
come on, we're doing everything the right way.
A little bit of love would be all right.
I mean, we get we get enough love from our fan base.
And I mean, a lot of people respect us.
They may hate us, but they respect us.
And, you know, I'm not here to change feelings.
I'm here to go out and try to win football games.
Is there a part of you that like being around Tom Brady
that you start to feel ageless?
No, because I mean, I sometimes I look at him and I say,
he looks pretty young. Right.
You know, it's it's it's remarkable.
I don't feel ageless.
But does it. But when he's like basically getting out there every year
and what's going to be 42 this year, 41, 42, 42, maybe 43.
Yeah, 43, maybe.
Have has has there ever been a moment
as you complain ever about being like, man, I feel old today.
It's it's crazy.
At this point, it's crazy.
And it's it's crazy that it hasn't been talked about even more
that we are now getting to the point
where he's like almost mid forties and still doing this.
You know what? He's like the exact opposite.
He's Mr. Positive all the time.
Like, I feel I feel great, babe.
Man, I feel my arm feels great, babe.
She's got to work out.
And you know what I mean?
Like, he's he's all about his his lifestyle, that TB 12 thing.
And, you know, it works for him.
And that's that's that's why he's the goat.
Yeah.
Has he gotten you on his weird diets yet?
I tried it.
And I mean, I was so hungry all the time.
Because he eats like a deer.
Yeah, nuts and berries.
So weird.
It's I need some beef.
Yeah, some protein.
It sucks how good he is at social media, too,
because he's a guy that stayed off Twitter for the longest time.
And he got on and all of a sudden he like gets all the jokes immediately,
which makes me think that he had a burner that he was lurking for a while.
Can you confirm?
I cannot confirm, but it is so funny to see the 180 with him on this
because I was 10 years ago, 11 years ago in 2009.
I was like the first kid in the room with like Twitter and Instagram and stuff.
And I'd be on my phone and he'd be made.
He'd yell at me, you know, get out of your phone, bro,
and get in your playbook.
And like now he gets back.
I'll literally I'll be on the Internet and he'll be liking photos
that were posted 10 minutes ago, like how did that even get liked?
Yeah, he's always scanning the gram.
Yeah, he's peeping the gram.
What's up with Gronk?
Is he really retired?
I mean, I think so.
I think so.
I don't know. Yeah, that didn't sound super convincing to me.
Honestly, I don't know, man.
My guy's having some fun right now.
He's enjoying it.
And, you know, he's taking a lot of hits.
He's taking it takes a beating.
He's six foot seven anytime he falls.
That's three and a half feet.
Did you have that conversation with him before he announced his retirement
at any point in the last year or two?
Like, hey, man, this is starting to add up a little bit or my body doesn't feel
the same way it did five years ago.
You know, we never had that conversation.
But, you know, you could just tell that my guy was, you know,
he was feeling it a little bit here and there.
And, you know, he's got banged up.
See, he's he's he's a genius because what he did was he basically retired
so that he doesn't have to listen to Coach Belichick for like six months
and then he can come back in November and play the stretch run in the playoffs.
Well, I'm a fan for it.
So I hope you want him to come back.
I mean, he's he's a he's a valuable player.
Yeah. Yeah.
Did you notice over the last like couple years that that maybe in the middle
of the season football was getting less fun for him?
Was there less of that?
Like, Gronk, I'm a yellow lab puppy and I'm friends with everybody.
I'm bouncing around all the time.
Like, was he was he feeling it over the course of the last couple seasons?
Sometimes, I mean, when you're banged up, football is not always fun.
And I I could speak for myself on that, you know, and when you're dealing
with things, you know, ankle, foot, back, you know, it's it's football is amazing
when you feel great, but when you have to go out, people don't realize our
practices are like mini games, like just the constant cutting, the revving up.
And we practice outdoors, so it's in the freezing cold.
Like that's not easy, especially when you get older and you've accumulated a
lot of injury.
So you started seeing that my, you know, that that he didn't necessarily, you
know, it was, you know, it was tougher.
I mean, it gets tougher for everyone.
I mean, it's tougher for me, you know, just get out every day and rev up and,
you know, that's when the hype video comes in.
So yeah, that's when I throw out the hype video.
And then I get I just get fired up like a bat out of hell.
What Big Cat's getting at is that you need to give us a percentage.
We're in the percentage business.
So Rob Gronkowski comes back this year at some point.
What are we talking about?
Like 60 percent, 40 percent, 70 a percentage.
Yeah, that he will come back.
You had to guess.
This isn't Rob.
This is you.
Yeah, this is actually just three guys talking.
I'll give you my guess first.
I'm going to say 35 percent chance.
All right.
What's yours?
I mean, I'm going to say 69 just because it's it's Rob.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I'd say maybe an 11 percent chance.
Whoa.
You're doing your own number.
Oh, we're going to talk about myself.
100 percent.
By the way, here's a question.
I had to write all my papers for me at Kent State.
I wrote this the second you got the MVP.
Are you a bad teammate for not giving Tom Brady your MVP trophy?
No, he's the leader of the team.
You always talk about you're always so effusive with your praise,
saying that you wouldn't be Julian if it wasn't for Tom Brady.
Uh, I mean, if he asked for it, I would give it to him.
I mean, I didn't get the trophy right after.
Did you get a car?
No.
Really?
Terrible.
I think this is the first year they didn't give a car out.
That sucks.
Shit.
Yeah, I wanted to give it to my pop.
You went to Disney World?
Went to Disney World.
Nice.
Oh, speaking of your dad, I saw your father's day post.
Yeah.
You probably were the first person in the history of Instagram
who thirst trapped his father's day post.
Did you do that?
I mean, it was absurd.
You you're like, happy father's day to my dad wouldn't be here without him.
And it's just you shirtless, flexing, catching balls.
And then one brief second of your dad, like in the frame.
You thirst trapped your father's day post.
Just trying to be a daddy.
Did you know?
I mean, I have a theory too, because, you know, we're friends
and I follow you on all your social media.
When you start growing your beer during the season,
you don't think you look as hot.
So then when you get in the off season
and you got that movie star stubble, it's selfie.
It's selfie city for you all off season.
It's that stuff too far from the truth.
I mean, you do have like the greatest movie star stubble of all time.
That beard gets it gets lonely in that thing.
The beard is a good look for football season,
because it's like a nice gritty look.
It's like I'm I'm here to, you know, care for business exactly.
And then the off season comes by and you're like,
oh, I'm hanging out with Mark Wahlberg.
I got to trim it up a little bit.
By the way, I heard that Mark was pissed at you.
Is that true?
I guess he's a little mad.
What happened?
He wanted to be, you know, he wanted to produce my dog.
And, you know, he didn't get some beef going.
No beef with him.
He's he's he's the older bro.
OK. Yeah, we've interviewed him.
No, I've seen it. Yeah. Listen, guys.
Yeah, I know you do.
You do actually listen all the time, because yeah, you do.
So I have a real question for you, deep down.
So these are all been faked.
Yeah, here's the real one.
Deep down in places you don't want to talk about,
because I'm always fascinated with this, with professional athletes.
Win a Super Bowl, tear your ACL.
Patriots lose a Super Bowl, come back, win a Super Bowl.
Is there a little deep down part of you that's like,
yep, that's me, I'm the guy.
I mean, you're not rooting against the Patriots.
I know you'd never do that.
But it's like a very it's something that I think every inner competitor
has to at least like acknowledge that there's something there
where when you can't be out there helping your team, it feels different.
I mean, you just you feel lonely, you know, when you're not playing.
You don't feel like you're a part of the team,
especially when you're hurt, because you're not contributing.
Physically, you know, so it was definitely tough to watch.
But I don't think by any means did I have in the back of my mind
they lost this one.
So let's go out when this one show everyone.
It's because, you know, I wasn't playing, you know, so I don't think so.
But it's OK if other people say that.
What do you mean?
If we're to be like the legacy of this Patriots team is they're not
they're not a complete team without Julian Elmins.
Julian Elmins is the straw that stirs the drink.
You're OK with us saying that.
No, you know, there's a whole lot of good guys on that team.
Here comes a bell.
Check out, honestly, you obviously can't fully like go into this question
because you are a patriot and there's always a red dot right in the middle
of your head, like at all times, right at all times.
But I do find it fascinating that you win a Super Bowl,
you go out for a year, the Patriots fall short and then you come back
and you win a Super Bowl.
That's got to feel at least and you can't say it.
But I'll say for you at least a little good being like,
yeah, I'm very, very important to what's going on here.
You can say that we're all important to the team.
We all need to do our jobs.
And could you imagine if like if I if I took like a month paternity leave
and the podcast just tanked and then I came back and it was like, boom,
back to want to be like, this is awesome.
It would.
I would. It's a natural.
I think it's a natural human reaction, natural human reaction.
Yeah, natural to just be like, I want to be important.
I want to help the team.
I want to help the team so much they need me.
Like I missed an interview with Alex Smith last year and then he broke his leg.
And then I was like, if I had been on the interview, he definitely would be fine.
And people were like, that was the best interview that's ever been done on this show.
No one said that, but he did break his leg.
That's a fact.
And I don't remember. I don't even remember it because you weren't on there.
Yes. There you go. Boom.
The ratings must have been down. They take. They absolutely take.
A serious question about like the new
pass interference rules that have come in.
I don't even know what I'm going to review everything, basically.
So everything is up for review.
What happened was New Orleans fans complained a lot about that one call
at the end of the game against the Rams, which, by the way, I think if I'm Sean McVeigh,
I would have much rather have lost that game a close game against the Saints,
like put up 30 points or whatever, and then not even had to go to the Super Bowl
and get my ass whooped by the Patriots.
I think he would have been better off in that situation.
But better. Yeah, I think that the new pass interference rules.
Belichick's going to have some like weird insight into them.
He's going to tell he's going to coach you up in a special way to like take advantage
because he's so good at finding out these new rule changes
and like slightly modify him to get an edge.
We'll do business as business is being done.
This sounds like a job for Ernie.
Yeah, I heard my master. Yeah, I mean, it could be anything you tell us
that Ernie gave you this year, like one little tip that he that he pulled you
aside and was like, Hey, Jules, make sure you do this against this team.
He doesn't he doesn't necessarily give you tips.
I ask him questions, you know, on defenses because he knows all the numbers.
Like he'll he legitimately has like photogenic memory.
So I'll be like, you know, Ernie and third down in the red area
when they're down four points, like, what is this?
What do we expect this team to do?
You know, and he'll rattle off this, this, this, this.
And then if you throw a player at him and be like, yo, what's this guy like?
He doesn't use his arms or, you know, he's just
he's just information. That's that's what he is.
And I think that's I honestly, I think that's what he does for coach.
So he will get the pass. Yeah, he's Ernie is definitely locked himself.
He knows panic room.
My guy knows he knows every rule, regulation.
I mean, it's it's pretty he's rule guy. Yeah.
Rule guy, history guy, a statistic guy.
He's he's he's he's pretty smart.
Does he like have any other hobbies?
Does he like any other sports?
I don't I don't think so.
I honestly, I don't know.
I sit next to him sometimes when he brings a big ass tomato
and he just eats that for his whole meal.
It's like the Kauai Apple Band story that was that was made up.
He just eats, he just eats a full tomato.
It's like the opposite of Tom Brady, too.
Right. Doesn't Tom Brady not eat tomatoes?
I think that's on the no, no list. Yeah.
So does Ernie go to every single practice or does he only come down
like once a week when he's got earnings there for everything?
You know, Ernie Ernman is he's
he's like a set of eyes on everything.
You know, he's he's Bill's right hand man.
I'm always fascinated by Patriots receivers, too,
because it seems like you get there have been a lot of receivers
that have thought that they would go to the Patriots later on their careers.
Maybe get that chip.
You've got like Reggie Wayne was there for like a day.
Ocho Sinko, obviously, was there for a full season.
But you get a lot of guys that on paper should be awesome wide receivers
that for whatever reason, they just never get it when it comes to the Patriots.
And obviously, like you guys drafted who's the dude from Arizona State?
Yes, here.
Nikhil. Yeah.
So when you get a new receiver like that, and how how long does it take
for you guys on the field to be like, all right, this guy's going to work,
or this guy's not going to work?
You know, it depends on the player.
You got to find your niche, you know,
if if you're a guy that can play a lot of positions that can adjust on the fly,
you know, that can read coverage and do all those types of things,
because we do so much, you know, you're going to have a better chance
of succeeding in our system.
If you're a guy that can only do one thing, you know, run a go ball like,
you know, it's going to be tough just because we have so many things
that adjust every single play, you know, and coach looks for smart,
tough football players.
That's what he says every day.
He wants a smart, tough football player.
So I'm not saying any of the other guys that you said were not
or any implying any of that.
It's just, you know, sometimes it's it's it's hard to play here.
It's hard to play here.
It's not like you have, you know, Wednesday, Thursday to kind of get warm.
Like we're practicing hard every day.
And, you know, it's mentally, physically and emotionally draining to play for the Patriots.
What about Josh Gordon?
Do you think he's going to come back?
He's been he's been videotaped playing with with Tom Brady.
Were you there? I was not there.
You were not there.
So do you think he might might have a little return here?
You know, I hope, you know, I'm wishing for the best.
You know, with with his situation, it's it's it's different than, you know,
it's it's a it's a life situation.
And you're pulling for pulling from for that to, you know, to get better.
And then selfishly, I want him because he's a really good football player
and he can help us, you know, I don't know anything going into it.
Like, like legit, like I've asked 30 people in the organization outside.
Like, do you know what's going to happen?
And no one knows not one thing.
So, you know, we're just kind of sitting and waiting to see if
what the circumstance are going to be with him, because, you know,
he'd be a he'd be a really good tool to have.
Yeah, I did. I did a bad job as an interviewer there,
because you said something interesting that I wanted to ask follow up for.
You were talking about how it's mentally, physically draining to play for the Patriots.
Do you you've seen it with Lane Johnson, who actually that all happened on our show.
Lane Johnson saying, you know, he'd rather have fun.
Do you think playing for the Patriots is fun at any time?
Or is it just that winning is fun?
I think, you know, celebrating at parades and
and, you know, going out and going to Disneyland and coming here to talk about
you know, championships is very fun.
Right. But if you didn't have that, I guess a better way to ask is it always
is it always fun trying to like research guys and come up with questions
and grind here at four in the morning for, you know, you're coming.
It's a process.
I mean, of course, there's shit that you don't like doing.
OK, so to to continue with that analogy, I think it would be apt to say
if like we did all that stuff, which we do do and we didn't have success,
we'd probably be the worst thing ever if because you always see it when guys
go to different teams and coaches go to different teams.
They try to do the Patriot way and they don't have the success.
People are like, fuck this, I don't want to practice outdoors.
I don't want to practice hard all the time.
You think that when people make that comment, there's something to be said for it?
I think it's just with that whole, I think it's hard because, you know,
a lot of coaches try to leave and and and be Belichick.
Yeah, I mean, I don't think there's only one guy that's.
Bill, I mean, he's been in the league for 40 years.
He started at the Baltimore Colts like this guy is you can't just go
and try to like harp like your Bill Belichick
because he's got a respect level that everyone.
Everyone knows about, you know, so I don't know.
I have fun.
We went paintballing.
So it was amazing.
So I mean, we do fun activities.
We had a couple of field trips.
Yeah, I saw Bill shot somebody in the face, right?
He shot Kyle Vandoren.
Yeah, he did.
It was pretty fun walking by and seeing Bill like crawl.
Like I swear to God, I think he got hit like four times and didn't get up.
And like people are just hitting them.
And like it was hilarious.
Has he has he like lightened up even just a little bit or is he the same guy?
I think he I think he's the same guy when it comes to preparation,
discipline and all that.
But I mean, he's he's probably one of the best avolvers in the league.
And yes, honestly, it has gotten softer from when I first got there.
Right. I mean, so I mean, a lot of guys
think it's tough, but I mean, it we used to have double days and we'd have
seven, eight days of double days in a row.
And, you know, with with with the type of guys that you have coming in now,
I mean, it's just a different mindset and he's adjusting to it.
That's fascinating, because I think everyone thinks Belichick and they think
like he is set in his ways no matter what.
But you're saying he's evolved even on the, you know, personal aspect of coaching
and the day to day like interactions with people a little bit here and there.
You know, I I I definitely think think it's it's it's evolved a little.
But I also I think it has to do with with the type of player you're coaching
and now it's, you know, with social media.
I mean, you have a kid who's famous since high school for doing a backflip
and then a sense of entitlement coming here.
I mean, he's still going to be a stickler when it comes to that.
But like, you know, the way he approaches things, the way we learn things now,
it's very compatible to the type of guys that we have coming in now.
Have you guys talked about like a possible work stoppage at all?
Has that even come across your desk?
Because I saw that they sent out a memo to some of the players.
I haven't. I haven't checked my email in like four days.
Yeah, it must be nice.
We haven't checked our email.
We actually we have no way you have an email that you look at.
I do. Come on. Right here.
It's a Kent State EDU.
No, you don't have the password for that.
I've had this one. I've had this one for since I was like 16.
Yeah, there's something in it from D Smith right now,
being like, don't spend another cent for the next year and a half.
Yeah, they're probably I mean, I don't know.
We'll see how that goes.
Yeah. Does Belichick do the social media breaks
during like film study like Cliff Kingsbury is going to do?
What do you mean, social media?
Everyone flipped out because Cliff Kingsbury, I think they call him phone breaks.
But he basically is like every 20 minutes, we're taking a break
so that you become more focused because you can look at your phone.
Now, he's he's still super anti snap face and my my space.
He knows what all that everything.
The fact that he doesn't know how to use it.
But I think he's got eyes.
He knows it. He's got a horse.
That'd be great if it was Ernie, who is running all the burner accounts.
Yeah, that'd be amazing.
Did you talk to Danny Amandola after that post that he put up?
Oh, yeah, like, hey, Danny, maybe maybe put the phone down for a little bit.
You should come on our show. Yeah. Yeah, my guy, he's good.
Yeah, he's good.
We all get caught up in our feelings sometimes, you know?
Yeah, you know, we had we had a we had a little talk.
Yeah, he's good, though.
I mean, the dude's he's a cool dude.
Yeah, yeah, he should do some PR 101 with us.
We could fix this in two seconds.
Oh, my God, when you guys were breaking that data, I was.
We did it as a Monday reading.
I mean, there was a lot to work through on that.
He spent, I would have to imagine like 30 minutes crafting that message.
Yeah, yeah, he spent more time on that message than you did on your paper
to graduate from Kent State.
He probably had an email in the citations is
is probably August.
Yeah, yeah.
Well, a double space.
Yeah. All right.
I got one last question.
Seeky question put in promo code, take it 10% off, Seeky.
100% showtime Friday night.
So give us one thing that we should be watching for,
like a reason we should be watching, not just because you're truly
an Edelman and you're thirst trapping with your dad and all that stuff.
I mean, you were it was a ridiculous post.
I mean, but give us one thing like, hey, you're going to be surprised
to see this or we get an inside look at this.
I mean, you get an inside look of a player that's going through
not just an injury, you know, I was suspended first four games
adversity and how I had to deal with that.
Do you get into that in the little bit?
Yeah, we get into that.
We get into that.
And, you know, me and my father didn't talk for a while because of that.
Really? Oh, yeah.
So, you know, there was some tough times in there.
And, you know, that it's just going to kind of give you that outline
of what an athlete goes through, just like anyone else, when there's
an adverse situation and how they deal with it with their family,
how they deal with it with, you know, their profession, their their
friends and all those types of things.
I mean, it's a life story.
It's not just, you know, a sports story about trying to improve
yourself. Yeah, it's interesting that you brought up like how you go
through a situation like that with your friends and your family around you.
Because I have to imagine that if you get suspended for something and it's
public and everyone's talking about it, you feel the need.
You have to like defend yourself a little bit to a lot of people.
And a lot of people probably don't want to hear that sort of defense.
Like, I don't know how I would go about doing something like that.
I hear some people say sometimes, why don't athletes just say, you know what,
I was come back from an injury and I was taking whatever edge I could get
to get back on field with my guys.
But then again, you have to deal with blowback from people that will take
that admission be like, OK, so you're admitting it.
So now this is a whole new set of circumstances that you have to deal with.
It just seems like a lot of weight that will come down on you at that point.
Yeah, I mean, it's tough, bro.
It was it was a tough.
It was it was probably the hardest time of my life.
Just dealing with that and dealing with the the the fee.
I mean, mentally and and you're you're thinking am I going to be back
to what I was before I got hurt?
You know, and then you don't even get to have a test try, you know,
the first four games you have to come out on a Thursday night game
and play against the Colts and you know, it just it's it's it's a tough
situation that it was a learning experience for me.
And you know, you guys will see, you know, how I dealt with it.
Did you feel added pressure when you're coming back from an injury knowing
that this isn't like a situation where, oh, well, Belichick loves me.
I'm good. It's like, no, he he's cut a lot of guys that he loves.
You know what I mean? It's it's there's not it has nothing to do
with the feelings of the relationship.
It's the field and what you can do 100 percent.
You know, you definitely have that naturally in your head.
But how you get out of that is just through kind of like constant reps
of working your craft and working harder.
And that's kind of how I dealt with it.
I mean, there were some lonely, lonely days and nights.
I mean, you feel very isolated and you're sitting watching your tea.
You know, your team on the TV and can't communicate with anyone.
You're sitting there.
You're going crazy pulling your hair out at the same time.
Can I do? Is it going to be all right? Is it still good?
I haven't been hit like this, you know, there's a lot of things
that go through your head and this this kind of this captures it
and then kind of shows you the viewer on on how to deal with it.
When we were at your house, when you were rehabbing,
you basically were just living like our lives.
You were playing video games and watching Mac football.
And I was like, damn, this is what it looks like.
Yeah, that was what it was like a third.
It was like a Tuesday night in, I don't know, November.
Just yeah, November.
I was like two months out.
Yeah, it was literally you were put.
We came in, you were you were in the middle of a call duty game.
And then after we did the interview, you're like, what's on TV?
Oh, Toledo is playing my of Ohio. Cool.
I mean, it's a pretty good life, right?
We do have some good things that go in our life when you're not playing.
But yeah, I mean, you try to put a bunch of these
little things in your life, like sitting on the couch,
watching TV and playing video games or something like that or listening to music
to kind of like block out, you know, what what your mind's really thinking about.
Because, I mean,
I'm you know, I'm thinking about every situation every five seconds.
You know, I mean, you're just always turning on always always going.
So, I mean, yeah, it's it's cool.
Right. You don't have to make any comment about this,
but I just want to say that the the day that the Robert Kraft story broke,
that must have been an all time text thread day for you.
Just for players on the Patriots.
Just probably just like a shitload of emojis.
And you got all sorts.
You don't have to comment on it.
I just want to put it out.
How many text messages did you actually get that day?
We don't have to comment on it, but I think it was out of town.
I was in I was I was in Colombia when that happened.
The country.
South Carolina. No, the country.
Where are you doing in Colombia?
Just celebrating.
Yeah, yeah, having fun.
It's a good place to celebrate.
That is a good place to celebrate.
It's good time.
Yeah, no, it's great goal line.
We've always said that. Yeah.
Truly, gentlemen, thank you very much.
Appreciate it.
100 percent showtime Friday night.
We'd love having you on.
We're going to have to take a picture
and you're going to take off your shirt.
We're going to throw a strap of picture.
Is that cool?
Also, yeah, you oh, all right.
If I have to, I will.
I mean, we invented a new thing where you eat select.
We're being big cat eight burgers on camera
and talked about burgers with a really good looking guy.
Yeah, Zac Efron. We invented that.
So I saw that I did.
I did get a little butt hurt about that.
Yeah, Jack Efron. I mean, that's a burger.
I mean, he's burger.
Time is that he's pretty good looking.
And he's he's he's he's good.
Yeah, you know, sometimes you just got to chalk up an L.
Yeah, sometimes you know what you chalk up an L
and you go back to the fucking drawing board knowing knowing you,
though, you probably have like a showtime preview thing
or something coming out with Zac Efron like tomorrow night.
Just fuck with us.
You mean, Zachy? Yeah, exactly.
Exactly.
Have you also been saying a hundred percent a bunch
in this interview? You said at the end there, I will.
The thing is, I say it all the time.
I always. Yeah, but you.
That's good. Fuck with people like that.
What are you talking about?
You've got the under like I wouldn't be shocked
if I went back and listened and you said a hundred percent,
like 15 times.
A hundred percent.
I think.
That interview with Julian Edelman was brought to you by Bird Dog Shorts.

I feel like we've been killing it with Mount Rushmore season.
A lot of debate. Yeah.
This one healthy.

This one should also have healthy debate.

Mount Rushmore of ways to procrastinate.
OK. This was an easy one for me.
This is a layup checking Instagram.
Wait. You can't do multiple social media.
No. No. I'm telling you.
I'm telling you what you do.
Checking Instagram and then checking email.
Then check. Wait. This is not fair.
No. Wait. This isn't fair.
You got to pick one or the other.
OK. Instagram. OK.
Instagram and Instagram stories.
Instagram stories are great procrastination.
Yes. You're about to just take everything.
You're going to. But it's a whole Instagram.
Email of going back and forth jerking off doing Twitter.
Well, obviously, obviously, if you're
checking Instagram stories one hand,
you're cranking it with the other.
OK. So checking Instagram stories
or Instagram in general, that's a good pick.
Jerk off. OK. OK.
Good. Good job.
Also pick. Yeah.
That doesn't really put things off that long.
Yes. No. Well, I mean, ways to procrastinate.
Yeah. It's a way to procrastinate.
Put off. So you got to you convince yourself
that you need a clear mind to use exactly.
You got to get off to put off.
You're like, oh, I got to walk my dog.
Need a clear mind for that.
I didn't do that. I haven't done that yet.
Crank it before. Are you going to probably?
Well, I haven't yet.
All right. Walk your dog.
OK. It's pretty good.
You have to. Yeah, I have to.
All right. This one's another one that I think is easy.
But sometimes do you ever procrastinate
before you walk your dog? Yeah, of course.
You just put off. It's a whole process of the whole
like before, during, after is all procrastination
to whatever you actually have to do.
The walking the dog like, all right, well,
I got to I got to put on my shoes and I got to,
you know, maybe give him a little treat.
And then we get the leash on.
I'll definitely put off walking the dog for a while.
Yes. All right.
Checking gambling lines.
Love to procrastinate by checking gambling lines
because I've convinced myself and I'm sure this is relatable
to everyone who's sitting in an office right now
that the only reason you lose a gambling
is that you haven't done enough research.
So some of my dumbest ideas, best ideas
have come when I'm procrastinating
by checking gambling lines, looking for stupid trends
that really don't matter, creating spreadsheets
that will never work, figuring out a system,
looking at message boards, whatever it may be,
you can basically waste hours and hours and hours
checking gambling lines, and then eventually
you're just going to take the over anyway.
By creating a spreadsheet, do you mean looking at a spreadsheet
that somebody else has created?
Oh, no, no, no. I have created spreadsheets before
where I try to find like really stupid trends,
but the sample data is only like six days.
I'm like, wow, this is crazy.
As someone who's proficient in Excel myself,
my spreadsheets just all consist of two columns,
just the first one being the name of a team,
second column just being how much they won by in a given week.
But it's endless when you're getting ready for gambling,
you can procrastinate, you can go maybe look at the pitchers,
look at their last five starts, look at their stuff,
the scouting report, the wind report, the weather,
everything that goes into it, night games, everything
that goes into it, maybe reading a local paper
to see how the team's feeling.
You can basically go down a wormhole
of checking like gambling lines
and trying to get yourself smarter before you bet,
and then eventually you're still gonna lose,
but you've wasted a lot of time.
All right, thank you.
Send an email, usually this is procrastinating
if you're doing something that involves other people,
but sending an email, asking a question,
hoping that they will respond like later or the next day.
That's a good one, that's a good one, really good one.
Starting a conversation like that.
Yeah, like, oh, I've been waiting for you to answer,
now I can finish.
Right, right.
Okay.
And if it's like after hours, instead of texting them
where they probably respond quickly, you email them,
hoping that they'll check your email.
You're like, well, I can't do this.
Step one hasn't been completed.
Right.
I like that.
Yeah, judging how quickly you're gonna get a response
based on various levels of communication,
that's like expert skill level.
I like that, Hank.
All right.
My next one is going to be cleaning up, tidying up.
So cleaning up things that maybe don't necessarily
need to be cleaned up.
Yes, I always think of that scene in Limitless,
the first time he takes the pill
and he walks into his apartment and he's like,
this can't be my apartment.
And he like cleans it all in like 10 seconds.
Yeah.
That's what I think of when I'm...
And sometimes when I have other things to clean up,
things that don't really feel like cleaning up,
like scrubbing the toilet, something like that.
That's at the bottom tier of your chores that you wanna do.
I'll just find something else to clean up
that's easier to clean up than the toilet.
So sometimes you can even use cleaning up
as a method of procrastinating for cleaning up.
Yeah, it's just a little quick tidy.
Yes.
My next one is eating.
So if you have like a big project
or something that you need to get done that night,
sometimes you just make a way too complicated recipe.
Like you look in your fridge and you're like,
oh, I've got ground turkey, what can I do with that?
And then you just Google a recipe.
Well, now I need to go to the store
and buy scallions, endives, sardines.
I need extra virgin olive oil and feta cheese.
And then I can make my meal.
Then he come back two hours later,
you eat a big dinner, then you're too tired
and your stomach's full and you fall asleep.
And you gotta clean up.
Then you gotta clean up.
Yeah, clean up.
All right.
Nice callback joke, Titus.
Thanks.
Scrolling through all the pictures in your camera roll.
Oh, okay.
Just sit there being bored and you'll just go through one
and then you just end up scrolling all the way back.
And then once you hit the end, you're like, fuck.
Yup.
It's been two hours.
Yup, that's a big, very good one.
That's a big one.
All right, I have my last two.
Texting any of your group chats
and essentially just starting a conversation
that will go on forever.
Yes, like just like busting someone's balls.
No, like that's just gonna get everyone else.
Or like throwing out a question.
You know, like even like a debate question.
Who's getting drunk this weekend?
Yes, something like that.
It's essentially the, like when you actually physically
were with your roommates in college being the,
anyone wanna go out tonight.
That's essentially what it is,
except it's on text version and you're procrastinating.
Is there a worse feeling in the world
than throwing out one of those to the group chat
and getting no response back?
It's bad, but you have to have multiple group chats
so you can throw it out to a bunch of different people
and be like, oh yeah, any plans for the weekend?
Mix it up a little bit.
On a Monday morning, you text that out.
Just to burn a couple of hours.
That's pretty good.
All right, and then my fourth,
I'm gonna go with looking at apartments or houses
that you'll never be able to afford.
Just searching for random cities and being like,
I always wondered what it would be like
to own like a $10 million house in San Francisco.
And just looking at pictures of sick places
that you never in a million years will be able to afford.
That's a pretty good one.
Yeah, you can also do that with Airbnb too,
like vacation places you'll never be able to afford.
My last one, I will go with just watch a Bar Rescue Marathon.
Oh, that's good.
It's always on, you watch one, you gotta watch like 10.
And it's just, who doesn't love Bar Rescue?
It's a timeless, there's no good time to watch it.
Anytime you watch it is a good time.
Many inception, many Mount Rushmore of marathons to watch.
Collective, law and order, football life, cops, office.
SVU is such a stinker because right when one episode ends,
it starts and you immediately hear the dun-dun.
Yeah.
You're like, I guess I'm sitting here for another hour.
Spike ball.
They keep playing that Georgia first Texas A&M.
No, it's spike ball.
Oh, on the, yeah.
They keep playing the Texas A&M for Georgia.
Cornhole.
Yeah, actually like channel surfing through
all the sports channels.
The Olympic channel.
Yeah.
Yeah.
The sports are rolling the other day.
Break dancing.
Whatever.
That's gonna be on there now.
Yep.
All right, PFT, you got your last two?
I only have one left.
Last one.
Last one.
Yeah, this was a fast one.
Yeah, this was good.
My last procrastination Mount Rushmore is waiting
for the next president to take office
because it wouldn't be fair to have a confirmation vote
in an election year.
Okay.
It's just a great way of procrastinating.
Just putting something off.
Just gotta wait.
Oh, cocaine Mitch knows it well.
Okay, there we go.
So that's your last procrastination.
You've been doing that for three years now?
Many years.
Yeah.
Just putting stuff off.
Re-upping every four years.
Putting stuff off.
All the time.
To then re-up it.
Yep.
Okay, that's good.
What did we miss?
Scrolling Twitter.
I don't know why no one even said it.
Well, because you told me that I couldn't.
Well, you can't.
Yeah, you can't combine them all.
You told me not to do multiple.
I thought someone would take scrolling Twitter on its own.
All right, so initially I had Instagram stories,
then moving to Twitter, then going to email.
Yeah, but that was for us.
Like scrolling Twitter is kind of like more.
It's like, yeah, like it's not something we do
when we're not working.
It's something we kind of do when we are working anyway.
That's true.
Instagram stories is not working.
No.
Scrolling Twitter is definitely working.
True.
I wrote, say, make an outline
and say we'll finish the rest tomorrow.
Yes.
So it's like you just kind of like not really get into it,
but you're like, okay, I've thought about
how I'm going to attack it tomorrow.
Yep.
Or say I'll wake up really early tomorrow and finish it.
How about just taking a nap?
Nap is always a good fashion nap.
How about just taking a shit?
Yep.
Taking a shit, taking a nap, getting a coffee.
Smoking joint.
I do a lot of times for this show,
I talked about like research and gambling lines.
I always do for this show, putting in my bets.
So right before we record, I'm like, hold on,
give me a minute, I got to put in my bets.
Yeah.
And that usually takes about,
that usually gives me about 30, I'd say it all the time.
Yeah.
I mean, I can't believe no one's ever called me out on it
because it's like, it takes me four seconds
and then the rest is just procrastinating.
You know what sucks is when you,
when you're trying to procrastinate and take a shit,
but you don't actually have to shit anymore.
Yeah.
You feel real bad about yourself then.
You're like, what am I doing with myself?
Yeah.
You just, you don't even shit,
but you scroll Twitter and Instagram for it.
Like half an hour.
Yes.
I do that at work sometimes.
Like, oh, it's shit time.
That's like, maybe not, but I'm in here.
Addicting games, addictinggames.com.
Yeah, I wrote that Max dirt bike.
Yup.
That's my, that's my game.
Shout out to the guy who makes barstoolarcade.com.
I played that basketball game.
What's your highest score in the basketball game?
You played it?
20.
Oh, I've hit 25.
Wow.
Yeah.
I screenshot it just in case.
It was, it was like, I did it.
And I basically had that moment where like, all right,
now what?
You've been playing this game for eight hours.
That thing was really hard.
Once you've got the hang of it and started clicking fast.
Yup.
I think, I don't think I got up to 25.
I got like 21, I believe.
Google Earth.
Going on Google Earth and just searching random countries
or maybe searching like the old houses you've lived in.
That's always fun.
Just, just doing random like, oh, I wonder what,
I wonder what the beach looks like in Miami on Google Earth.
Just Wikipedia conspiracy theories.
Yup.
YouTube, YouTube rabbit hole.
Just go down like a, just pick a random subject
and watch everything on it.
I wrote down also Netflix, The Office or Always Sunny
because that's one of those classic shows
you just never stop.
You can, and you can pick any moment and just press play
and then boom, like 10 hours have gone.
Parks and Rec as well.
Yeah.
And you don't have, and it's not, it's very rewatchable.
So you don't have to worry about like, oh man,
I just watched this last week.
Making plans for something too.
Like planning something in advance
so that you don't have to do the thing you have to do today.
I got you planning something else
that you'll have to procrastinate later.
Like, hey, you guys were like,
I'll sometimes text my friend and say,
hey, you wanna go to a road Cubs game sometime this summer.
And that will like be like three hours
of looking at the schedule, throwing out dates.
Oh, that doesn't work.
Eventually we don't do it,
but the act has basically burnt three hours of my day.
You know what I mean?
Texting your mom back because you forgot to
and then you scroll back in your text and you're like,
oh, oh, this is a great time.
Yeah.
Here we go.
Let's talk mom.
A real good one is creating a video game character
like for Madden or for any other sports game.
Franchise mode.
Yeah, I'm gonna do a full season.
Yeah, I used to do that all the time
when I had so much other stuff that I needed to do
is making a very lifelike representation of my face
on my Madden character.
Dude, my best player ever, Goose Ravenscroft.
Relief pitcher.
Fucking spent so many hours on that guy.
He was sick too.
Real sick.
He had a mullet, mustache, goggles.
Sounds awesome.
Yeah, it was awesome.
We burned like basically all of 2013.
That was a shit a year.
Yeah, it was.
I just burned that whole year.
All right, I think that's,
I mean, I'm sure there'll be more that we missed.
Oh, old school, old, old school practicing your signature.
Like when you were like maybe 12
and you learned cursive and just are doodling.
Oh, okay.
Bonus on that drawing that S.
That Superman S.
That cool S.
Or the 3D box.
3D box was good.
Or I know a lot of girls that did this one
practice writing their name,
but with boys last names instead of theirs.
Yep.
Yep, that's good.
Thank you for giving us a nod.
Jillie's done that once or twice.
Jillie knows.
Jillie Manning.
Pick any of them.
Okay, let's go to our, let's do some segments.
So we will tweet out ways to procrastinate.
Tell us the ones we've missed.
Let's do some segments.
Bachelor talk, bachelorette talk
for guys that don't watch the bachelorette.
Garrett and Hannah when Naked Bungie Jumping in Latvia,
I've been there no big deal.
Luke P. was furious that Hannah showed her naked body
to a guy who isn't her husband.
Luke P. is basically the only reason
people watch this show now.
Like he's the only straw that starts the drink.
So they're keeping him around,
even though all the guys in the house hate him.
That was my own note.
Luke P. told Garrett and Mike to stay in their lanes
and not talk to him.
Garrett and Mike then told Luke P.
He needs to stay in his lane.
Whoa.
Hannah confronted Luke P. about him trying to control her,
but he's still got a rose,
despite being the most hated guy in the house.
So yeah.
You don't get into a lane off with another guy.
No.
Like if you drop a stain in your lane,
you're either fighting or you better expect a lane
right back from him.
When is this over?
I don't know.
There's like two guys trying to merge.
Six or seven guys left.
I saw that news story,
it was like one of the guys has a girlfriend.
Yep.
That was such a classic news story to try to get buzz
about a shitty Bachelorette season.
Over.
Yeah.
Over it.
Wait, they went naked Bungie Jumping.
Why?
In Latvia.
Do you really need to add the nudity to that?
Or is Bungie Jumping not as much of a thrill?
Like on the bounce back.
Yeah.
Also, just the idea of your dick just flapping in the wind.
What's I'm saying?
I feel like when you got to the bottom
and then bounce back up like your balls would just,
I don't know.
My dick would just go into my stomach
because it would be scared of the Bungie Jump.
Not because it's small.
Yeah.
All right.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I feel like dick flapping in the wind.
That might be the best dick moment of my life.
It's like wiping your ass.
Good wipe.
Yeah.
With the wind just going right through your butt crack.
Also, I have a feeling that if you're hanging upside down,
people are so not used to seeing the male body
from that perspective.
True.
That any dick, they don't know if a dick's big or small.
That's true.
There's nothing to compare.
There's no references.
I don't know.
It just looks like a gigantic fly with a big pubiscus.
Luke P, though.
What?
He hangs hog.
Does he?
Yeah.
Oh, big time.
All right.
Talking soccer.
We'll do guys and chicks after this.
Talking soccer at USA One.
That was Talking Soccer.
Fuck Spain.
Women's World Cup's OK.
I like it.
We know.
I know.
You're obsessed with it.
Our girl, Rose, is like the fastest player on the field.
I like watching USA.
Yes.
The other games, I can't really get into it.
So there are some teams that are tough to watch.
Argentina was tough to watch.
I bet on them a lot.
That was hard to deal with.
France is good.
That's going to be a good matchup on Friday.
You should just let the USA play every game.
And I'd be into it.
Just have them against the world?
Yeah.
US against the world?
Yes.
I've been to that.
Every three days, they play a new team.
It's like a Mortal Kombat tournament,
except it's just the US.
Right.
And we just have to beat everyone,
and then we win the World Cup.
I'm into that.
But this is, I'm going to call it,
this is the World Cup on Friday.
France versus US?
Whoever wins this, I'm not worried about them.
This match.
I'm not worried about them.
I'm not worried about the French, huh?
Nope, not at all.
That's probably smart.
All right, before we do guys on checks, PMT Sports Biz,
minute, our intern, Jake, has been crushing it.
You've got to be following him, PMT Sports Biz.
Here is his minute.
Good morning.
This is Jake Marsh with the PMT Sports Biz Minute.
Emmerty University released an NFL fandom report
ranking all 32 teams.
Up top, the Cowboys, Patriots, Eagles, Giants,
right behind, and Dead Last, the Chiefs, and the Rams.
So you're telling me the teams that have former PMT guests,
Patrick Mahomes, and the duo of Jared Goff and Blake Bortles
are Dead Last, I call Baloney.
Meanwhile, Wimbledon starts in just a few days
and one of the biggest renovations, an $88 million
roof on the number one court.
So when John Isner is playing in his inevitable five-set
10-hour thriller, let's just hope it's on that court.
Out West, James Holzhauer is taking his talents
to the felt, the Jeopardy icon, who
made more than $2 million on the show,
participated in a few World Series of Poker events
out in Vegas this week.
But don't worry, his tournament finishes
will not be spoiled to the public, at least by me.
I mean, who would do that?
Finally, in Food News, there's a brand new big-time dessert
out there, and oh, that's all the time
we have on this PMT Sports Biz Minute.
Mr. Cat, Mr. Commenter, back to you.
OK, thanks, Jake, our reporter there.
It's not your content.
It's not your content.
This is not my hamstring.
It's not your content.
It's not your content.
Guys on chicks, Hank, let's end it out.
This is a little fun fact someone sent in.
If you look at the back of your right hand,
your fingers spell out Jill.
Oh my god.
Is this one of those ones where you then punch someone
in the face?
Oh, yeah, and if it smells like strawberries, you have cancer.
Yeah.
Jill.
Jill.
The back of your right hand.
You got to curl it.
Yeah, no, I get it.
Check it out.
It's been disbelief because it's like an uppercase I,
but lowercase O.
So this is your sign.
We have everyone Jill.
Yeah, this is the Jill sign.
The Jill sign.
Everyone just throws that out there.
Actually, that should be the emoji.
Yeah.
Oh, it's just the hand.
The right hand.
Fuck yes.
OK, Jill.
Jillie beans.
Beautiful.
Sup, swamp cat and boys.
I don't know what that means.
Swamp cat.
So I'm about to switch to a new birth control.
My boyfriend wants me to get the implant in my arm
instead of pills.
I didn't know that was a thing.
He said it's way more effective in what's
once what's best for me and for us,
not just so he can come inside me more, should I believe him?
No, you probably shouldn't believe him overall.
But if you wanted to stick to birth control,
all you have to do is just tell the guy, like,
it makes my boobs bigger.
I don't know if that's true or not.
But if you just say that, then he'll be like, oh, yeah, OK.
Yeah, do yeah, do that one.
Yeah, do it.
Do that one.
Your boobs will get huge.
So I was hooking up with this guy,
and he just refused to take his windbreaker off.
I reached out to him months later and asked, find out why.
And he said it was just because of the draft.
Please tell me what he was hiding.
PS, he turned out to be my TA the next semester
just to add to the humiliation.
Wait, was it like an NFL issue thing in Nashville?
No.
Like it was one of the cool draft night ones?
A little draft.
Oh, you think that?
You think it was his sweet new?
I think he just had an awesome Tennessee Titans jacket
that was a limited edition for draft night
and didn't want to take it off.
Listen, ladies, I'm sure you have the same thing in your life.
But if a guy finds something that works in terms of clothes,
he's going to hammer it forever.
I have one skinny sweatshirt that you probably
everyone knows, the black sweatshirt
that I wear every other day in the winter.
If you find one thing and you're like, man, that's good,
you're just going to wear it until you get called out way
too much about it, and then you'll have to switch.
So he hadn't been called out yet.
He might have had poison ivy, too.
Yeah, that too.
That's always a wonder.
Hey, Hank, Big Cat, and PMT.
Sup, PMT.
She mean PFT.
A lot of people call you PMT.
I always enjoy that.
What counts as cheating?
My boyfriend of three years admitted
to flirting and getting other girls contact info
when he was out partying with his single friends.
The chase.
We broke up after a random girl was snapping him
and he tried to lie about it.
Was he cheating on me?
I don't know.
Emotionally, yes.
Yeah, I think the chase is not cheating.
But if a guy is like, yeah, all I did
was go out and get her number.
He probably cheated.
Yeah, why would he want?
It's one of those things that if it was just confined,
if you could just basically have your brain think
it was just confined to talking to a girl at a bar
and getting their number, then it's like, OK,
that's probably not cheating.
But if that person does that, they've done everything else.
So I had a friend back in college
that was in a relationship, but he would try to make a game of it
where it was like, I'm going to see how many girls I can
get to want to hook up with me and then tell them that no, I
can't.
Oh, nice.
At the last, that's like an edging.
Yeah, he was edging the entire time.
Yes.
But that's like, it's a very dangerous ego game to play.
I would say at that point, yeah, you're emotionally cheating?
Yeah, emotionally cheating.
I don't know what that means, but I've read it online.
PFT went to college with Sting.
Hey, this is the last one.
So I need your help.
My boyfriend, well, now ex-boyfriend,
religiously listens to your podcast.
And basically, I want to get back with him.
So can you stop what you're doing right now
and ask him if he wants to get back together?
His name's Joe.
Thank you.
Listen, Joe, your girl, she misses you a lot.
She's got great taste in podcasts.
Joe, this is essentially the guy doing the marriage proposal
on the Jumbotron at the game.
This is the most romantic thing that could ever be done.
What's her name?
Joe's girlfriend.
Joe's girlfriend.
Listen, Joe.
Ex-girlfriend.
Well, now we're back together.
Joe, we're talking to you right now.
This is going to suck for all the Joes
that we're not talking to.
That have a girlfriend that they miss?
Or that just got.
Or think about that.
No, yeah, the Joe that broke up with a girl,
Joe that's girlfriend broke up with him,
and he's been heartbroken.
And now he's like, oh, shit, she wants to get back.
Joe, listen, she wants you back.
Not you, Joe.
Not that, Joe.
Just text her.
Love your message on PMT.
See, and then tweet us.
All you Joes out there.
Text your ex-girlfriend, being like, thank you
for getting the shout out on PMT.
Let's get back together and just tweet us how that goes.
That will definitely work.
Also, female listeners don't have sex with any guy named Joe
because he's getting back together with his ex-girlfriend.
So until you do get back with your ex, Joe,
none of the other Joes are getting laid.
This is a dumpster fire.
I'm excited.
Yeah, it's like that movie, Shy Rack, except for Joe's.
Yeah, Joe, we need a hashtag for Joe
so he can reach out to us tomorrow.
Joe knows.
Joe knows.
Hashtag joe knows.
And then put the text messages that you
texted to your ex-girlfriend, being like, you know what?
I do miss you.
Let's get back together.
Love you guys.
Love you guys.
Love you guys.
Love you guys.
Love you guys.
Love you guys.
Love you guys.
Love you guys.
Love you guys.
Love you guys.
Love you guys.
Love you guys.
Love you guys.
Love you guys.
Love you guys.
Love you guys.
Love you guys.
