Starting point is 00:00:00 Hey, pardon my take listeners, you can find every episode on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or YouTube. Prime members can listen ad-free on Amazon Music. On today's pardon my take, we have the man who's going to be at the center of everything on Thursday night, Trey Wingo, who's hosting the MegaDraft ESPN NFL Network together. We talk draft, we give him some tips, we talk the bear incident, you know the bear incident. We have Rob Gronkowski, traded to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. We have Hot Seat Cool Throne.
Starting point is 00:00:33 And then we have a Mount Flushmore of dumbest fears. No, Mount Flushmore of fears, but it's the Mount Rushmore of dumbest fears. Mount Flushmore of fears that we have, meaning, we just say we're doing a meaning. Fears that we have that sound weird, sounds stupid, that are irrational, irrational fears that we have. It's not going to be like death. It's going to be a very specific way to die. So it's the Mount Flushmore of fears, but also the Mount Rushmore of irrational fears.
Starting point is 00:00:59 Oh yeah, very stupid fears. And I'm sure Hank will probably pick pizza or something, like eating too much pizza. Something that everyone universally loves and he's going to decide it. What have I chosen that everyone universally loves? Okay, let's just get to the ad and then we'll get to that. You are the greatest heel that has ever been created in Mount Flushmore history. No, you guys are just pandering. It's incredible.
Starting point is 00:01:19 I love it. I love it. It's great for engagement. Pandering Paul and pandering P&T. You're pandering for engagement. All right. We're brought to you by the Cash App. We're in the Cash App Studio.
Starting point is 00:01:27 A part of my take is brought to you by the Cash App. Not only is it the easiest place to send money to your friends, it's the safest. It is the number one app of social distancing because you don't have to be face to face when you send money to your friends, to your family, to your dog walker, to your dog walker that you are still paying even though they're not walking your dog. Shout out to me in PFT. You can do it with the Cash App. I don't think that's so embarrassing that you brought that up.

Starting point is 00:02:34 Boy! Boy! Now in the street there is violence, and then a lot of stuff will have to be done, no place to hang out or wash in, and then I can't live all on the sun, oh no, we're gonna run down to electric avenue, and then we're taking higher, oh, we're gonna run down to electric avenue. It's part of my take presented by Barstool Sports. Welcome to part of my take presented by the Cash App, go download it right now, use code
Starting point is 00:03:18 BARSTULE, you get $10 for free, $10 to the ASPCA, today is Wednesday, April 22nd, and Roberto Gronkowski is officially a Tampa Bay buccaneer, all your nightmares have come true Hank, but first, boop for Leroy. Boop scoop for Leroy. Boop scoop for Leroy. Listen, this was one scoop that I was pretty confident, or Leroy was pretty confident from the start, he did get his credit, so I guess that- We bullied the credit out of him.
Starting point is 00:03:50 Not on the bottom scoreboard though. Well here's the thing, I feel like he got enough credit, Schefter credit him, mostly just to get back at Rapsheet, Rapsheet credit him, after much consternation on Rapsheets part after going out of his way to not credit him, he finally did. I think what would- In the most petty way possible. In the most petty way possible. He hated, if you read the tweet, it was through Nash teeth, it was like-
Starting point is 00:04:11 Read it, read it in Ian Rappaport voice, yeah, I'll pull it up, I think what put him over the edge was he tweeted something about the deal and I just tweeted a rat and cheese emojis at him. Oh, no, yeah, but right before he did that- And then he texted me right after, he was like, dude, what the fuck? I did the full rat quote tweet of it and then I think Leroy tweeted out, now I can't be held responsible with Leroy tweets, but he tweeted out credit me bitch. Well, so-
Starting point is 00:04:34 And he called him rat sheet. Rappaport, well he could have easily just played along, there's a very small part of me that's like, I kind of get it because this was one of his biggest scoops and he was like, I nailed it. You should have got it earlier. And then he just got fucking bullied online by everyone. He should have put the scoop out two weeks previously. It really was two.
Starting point is 00:04:53 It's not like we kept it a secret. So here- There was a moment there too when we were texting and you're like, Shephter did the right thing by playing along and then it dawned on me, I was like, wait, Shephter just did that because he didn't have the scoop and he basically was four minutes past Rappaport so he's like, who can I credit? Oh yeah, PFT's dog. Yeah, so here's the tweet from me and Rappaport was, great scoop Leroy, period, on your game,
Starting point is 00:05:17 comma, as usual, period. So not a lot of motion coming out of it. I can't believe I'm tweeting at a fucking dog. I do this for a living. This should be a huge moment for me. I'm so goddamn mad. And you know, whenever he sees any Leroy to it, he rolls his eyes. So when he says as usual, that's not being serious.
Starting point is 00:05:33 No, that was tongue-in-cheek directly in cheek because Leroy is not as usual. Well no, Leroy's about, I did the math on his account. He's about 60% retiring. That's twice as good as any baseball player. Yeah, post-deletion. There was one deletion. Okay. There's one deletion.
Starting point is 00:05:50 Bump that down to 59%, which is still pretty good. Yeah. It's better than a lot of people's tax rates. So Hank, I'm sorry, first and foremost, about being right about the scoop. It's not one that Leroy wanted to nail, but Leroy would like to make the announcement that he is indeed retiring from the scoop game. I've got his bone. I brought his bone in and a poop bag.
Starting point is 00:06:12 I can raise his bone to the rafters after this is over. We don't have to turn on the lights, but yeah, that's fine. That's the rafters. Oh yeah, these rafters. That gets in the way of my squats. What's, um, what are you, all right, so if I ever wanted to do squats, it would hypothetically get in the way of me doing them. Very good point.
Starting point is 00:06:28 So Leroy is retiring. What is the man behind Leroy who has an insatiable desire to actually be an insider going to do? Oh, I don't want to be an insider. I just want my dog to be right every now and again. Okay. But are you going to? No, no, no.
Starting point is 00:06:42 Here's the thing. I see Leroy is popular out there. Some would say that he's more popular than me and I would agree with him. People love dogs. Yeah. What I'd like to do with Leroy's account, and you guys give me some feedback and let me know if you think this is appropriate, I'd like to pivot him out of the breaking news game, put him out to stud, put him out to retire, to just nap his days and snack and
Starting point is 00:07:02 fall asleep and drool all the live long day and then use the account to grade the scoops of actual insiders in terms of, like, if there's a moment, like what happened today, let's just say Leroy had not put the news out there completely accurately two weeks prior and rapper poor beat shifter by about four minutes after they both tweet out the news, Leroy serves as the judge and say, this scoop goes to eat the rap report. So it becomes like kind of the grand master of scoops, the oracle, the grand wizard of scoops. No, we don't.
Starting point is 00:07:35 Okay. I like that. Here's another idea. I'll just throw it out. It's like a player retiring going into media. Exactly. That's exactly. I'll just throw it out there.
Starting point is 00:07:43 What if we change Leroy's Twitter account to, or we change it to Leroy, part of my take's guestbooker and we just use the Twitter account to harass people that we want to come on the show? I mean, we can do both. Yeah, we could do both. Just tweet him all the time and just maybe even change the Twitter handle, go on part of my take. So like literally the first response to a blue checkmark is go on part of my take.
Starting point is 00:08:05 Okay. And everyone's like, dude, go on part of my take. Here's what we can do is we can use. You can't get mad at a dog. All direct replies will be for the purposes of booking guests on part of my take. So tell us who we should just send Leroy after. Yeah. Leroy can, he can be a retriever.
Starting point is 00:08:18 Yes. Just fucking go after people. Yeah. So he is retiring from the scoop game. I feel like he got enough credit and this was a big enough scoop. Yes. Where I feel like this is a good one to go out on top. Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:08:29 So, but I mean, it's great redirection on Hank's part steering this conversation towards Leroy because we need to talk about Rob Gronkowski, the actual trade, his two heroes going down to Florida. Rob Gronkowski traded from the Patriots for a fourth round pick and the Patriots then send a seventh round pick with Rob Gronkowski. It brings up a good point. Is Leroy ever going to come out of retirement now that he's retired? Oh, if you don't think that Leroy is going to come out of retirement when PFT gets that
Starting point is 00:08:55 itch for some news breaking, that's, I'm actually going to report that right now. No. That he will come out of retirement. That report is being disputed. So please credit Big Cat when Leroy comes out of retirement. The report is being disputed by sources who would know. A file that's in the desk, it might take a year, but he will come out. Leroy's circles are telling me that that is not in fact the case, that PFT could start
Starting point is 00:09:14 another account for a different animal and then use that and build that one up, have a whole like fucking zoo of animals breaking shitty scoops all around me. But yeah, there was an actual trade and Gronk has gone down there. Now Hank told me that he was going to be, it would break his heart, I think is what he said. So if this ends up coming true, but then. What you do for Leroy's retirement party. Stop trying to stall us.
Starting point is 00:09:34 I know I'm giving our good boy our proper do. You don't even care? Hank, don't care? Hank, don't care? I never said that. That's a once again fake news from PFT. Is this good for you? Because now you can just be a Bucks fan.
Starting point is 00:09:47 You can have Edelman go down there and be like, hey, I'm rooting, like the Patriots are my number one team, but I'll root for the Bucks. Do you think Tom Brady and Gronk will retire as Buck and yours when they go into Canton? No. I think they might. If they win two Super Bowls. If they go two for two? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:10:02 If I can be real with you, with you, with my pals here for a second. Yeah, let's just pals. Pal's talking. Soggy Saros. There's definitely like a one side of me, it makes complete sense, like Gronk was retired, they all, it's not like they're in the prime of their career and they left the Patriots. It's like a one last, two raw, it's Florida, nice weather. They're both trying to get out of like the Patriot way.
Starting point is 00:10:20 I kind of understand that. There's another part of me, especially with the last dance, where as I'm watching the last dance the whole time, I'm just like, how can you have this team and how are they not playing for the Bulls? And there's a small part of it where it's like, how is Tom Brady and Rob Gronkowski playing in that NFL and not on the Patriots? It's tough. And when I heard, like in my house, my girlfriend played the video with the We Ain't Goin'
Starting point is 00:10:45 Nowhere song and like my heart sank. Like that's my favorite video of all time. And now they're not even, no, she was just like scrolling on Twitter and it started randomly popped up. Interesting. And that, so that I knew right, right when that played, I was like, this is, this is going to be very sad. It's extremely, extremely bittersweet.
Starting point is 00:11:03 It's very, very sad. I will be a Bucs fan, but it's also like. It's not, I'm not going to be like, I just can't do it. I can't be like the biggest Bucs fan in the world. Okay, so here's the, I mean, it's not, it's very different than obviously the end of the Bulls run. I'm very happy that I knew it was coming. Otherwise I would have been way more like.
Starting point is 00:11:23 Yeah, that's true. Because it did go zero to like, if you don't know Leroy, you don't listen to this show, you would have been like, what the fuck? This, we all saw it. We're like, oh yeah, we knew that was coming. And also it tells us, yet again, don't ever believe a coach or a player when they say they're retired for good. Or a dog.
Starting point is 00:11:42 That's why. That's why my dad still thinks. Trust dogs. Yeah. And that's why my dad still thinks Barry Sanders could come back. Like this is, the door is always a little bit open. Yeah. And so, so Gronk actually put out a non-denial denial of, of this report what like three days
Starting point is 00:11:56 ago. Yep. I'm actually trying to get Rob to be the one who breaks the news about Leroy retiring. So we'll see if he beats Leroy to that punch tomorrow. Probably not. Okay. But, but yeah, it is going to be weird to see him down in Tampa Bay wearing those uniforms. It's going to look unusual.
Starting point is 00:12:10 I do think this, it's going to get very interesting if they make the playoffs and it looks like they might get on a collision course. What if it was New England, Tampa Bay and the Super Bowl? In Tampa Bay. In Tampa Bay. You know, it also is going to be very fascinating to watch like Will Gronk, how many like excessive celebration penalties will Gronk get? Like all these, you know, how many weird interviews will he do during the year?
Starting point is 00:12:35 Oh, he's already booked on Howard Stern. Like he's got everything. Probably the main reason he wanted to go down there. And the most important story that I got my eye on Rob Gronkowski is still the 24 seven champion in the WWE. And the WWE has released the statement saying congratulations to Rob Gronkowski, the current WWE 24 seven champ on his return to football. Per the rules of the 24 seven title, Gronk must defend his championship at all times
Starting point is 00:13:02 in any location. He could be celebrating a touchdown pass from Tom Brady anytime, anywhere. That's come on. If I know Vince, they're going to fucking just they're going to all come out of the tunnel right after a touchdown. Probably all get arrested, but he'll have to defend. They probably all live down there anyways, right? Yeah, they do run out of the pirate ship.
Starting point is 00:13:23 Yes. It'd be like a giant. I have a thousand yards there now. You said your piece and now you're just done. I feel like soggy stars would actually help you process this. No, definitely not because he wasn't even on the Patriots. The Patriots got an asset. No, he wasn't.
Starting point is 00:13:37 He didn't have earlier. He was actually 100% true. Like that's not a spin zone. Rob Gronkowski was not going to play for the Patriots again. You just got a fourth round pick out of basically thin air. Correct. That's I actually. So we had Jay Glazer on the other day and he was saying that Belichick won't do this.
Starting point is 00:13:53 I think Belichick is the most likely coach to do it. He's like, oh, I get a free asset. Most other coaches would be like, no, I'm going to let my personal beef stand in between me and making the right choice. Belichick is so cold-blooded, he'll just be like, yes, I will get something for nothing. So the biggest question now that we have remaining is will the NFL season happen? Probably not. So it doesn't really matter.
Starting point is 00:14:13 Julian Edelman. What does Jules do? That's got to be he really is the SpongeBob meme come to life. He's just standing in the window, watching Gronk and Tom play in the yard. To take it back to a previous generation, he could be like to say anything meme where he's John Cusack and he just goes down to Tampa and he holds up a speaker outside the practice being like, notice me, please forgive me. Take me in.
Starting point is 00:14:34 There's also a part that like Tom Brady might have just done this because he keeps getting kicked out of Tampa Bay Parks and he was like, I need someone to throw to in my backyard. I need a buddy. Yeah. Yeah. I'm sorry, Hank. I'm just sorry. That's all.
Starting point is 00:14:49 I feel we're me in your position. I would feel just awful. What's happening right now is you're in the denial phase, which is what you should be in. If the season happens and Gronk does his first Gronk smash, that's going to that's going to be your heart smashing into a million pieces. Yeah. I mean, honestly, and like this is going to be crazy, but the uniforms thing like we're
Starting point is 00:15:09 I was going to save it, but the uniforms thing doesn't help. Like the Patriots downgraded the uniforms to look like a high school team. That was so weird. And it's like, it's just one of those things where you're just like, oh, wow, we're really like the past is the past. Can I give you one more? We're in this new era of like stit them in these shitty jerseys and like hoping, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:15:27 I don't know. I don't know. Here's one more spin zone. The good times can last forever. It's selfish to act like it's going to be, you know, complete dominance every year for like it has been for the last 15. This is the last thing that you can hang on to. The NFL season is not going to happen.
Starting point is 00:15:38 Well, there's that. And then there's also the chance that this was a mega, mega tampering situation, tamper bay. So Gronk, according to some reports out there, has been in touch with all these parties over the last couple of weeks. That would hypothetically make it a tampering case, which in turn would actually solidify the case I was making earlier that the only reason the Patriots let Tom go to Tampa Bay was that they could entrap them into a tampering charge.
Starting point is 00:16:08 Like this could be Belichick's master plan to get Tampa docked all the draft picks and to have both Tom and Gronk return to New England with like three extra third rounders. Hmm. That'd be nice. Yeah. That's a good point. I'll hold on to that. It's all just, it's just the other spins on the Yavhink is like nothing makes sense anymore.
Starting point is 00:16:28 So it's kind of perfect that it's been like that since Brady left. Right. You, but you would, you, if we had said to you a year ago, we're Tom Brady and Robert and Kyle, you're going to be Tampa Bay bucks. You've been like, what? And I'm like, but we're also don't have sports. We're all locked in our own homes, huh? And the biggest sports news story of the last month has been a fake coach that big cat
Starting point is 00:16:45 made. Yeah. Dugs, air dogs, baby. And your dog breaking the. And my dog. Other delicious. Like considering that there are no sports, this has been a pretty decent sports week for part of my day.
Starting point is 00:16:55 Yeah. We're just living in an alternate reality. I like this reality. Created the exception of the fact that I can't go out to a bar or watch a sport. And Jake breaking the, the Buffalo Wobblings. It's like, we really have like our own bubble of just huge news, fake sports. I'm really mad because I had it. I had a scoop that I could have broken that Ravel ended up having, but someone emailed
Starting point is 00:17:15 me that the Jonathan Taylor had was getting, was buying a toppers franchise in Madison. You had that one on. I thought they sent me the email and I was like, oh, who cares? Yeah, you got it. And then I saw him tweeted. I was like, God damn it. I could have, could have had that huge news. I got that too.
Starting point is 00:17:30 I don't even. Yeah, we all probably got it. We never even think about it. Damn. You got to make it and count for your dog to put that. Well, this is all Ravel has right now. He's fucking. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:38 Well, that's all he ever has. He's making PR emails. I'm also giving Leroy, it's not a severance pay, but a pension. So he's going to be receiving a pension as retirement. So he'll be taking care of it. Come nice. Or sort of that. Oh, you met a care for all.
Starting point is 00:17:50 Yeah, exactly. Okay. I'm going to put a rose in Leroy's display name on Twitter. So that would be funny if he became like a political like pundit for the election season. He could. Leroy could just pivot to politics, like get out of sports entirely. This shit bores me. He would dominate Chris.
Starting point is 00:18:08 So Lizzie Leroy is actually pound for pound, a smarter individual than Chris. So Lizzie. I don't know who Chris. Good. He is the Ravel of politics. Oh, geez. Yeah, you would hate him. I already have one.
Starting point is 00:18:20 Yeah, that's more than enough for everybody. But so it's also going to be interesting to see how they use Gronk down in Tampa Bay because it's got two good tight ends. Yeah. OJ Mayo is kind of low. He's been underused. Here's what they probably will do. They have a terrible offensive line.
Starting point is 00:18:33 So they probably use Gronk as a tackle. Disagree. They're going to do the opposite. I think I think Bruce Arian sees Mike Evans and he's like Rob Gronkowski has lost 25 pounds, 30 pounds. If we can have one big wide receiver, that's awesome. Let's just use Gronk as a wide receiver. But he Gronk is definitely that that's got to be such an awesome feeling.
Starting point is 00:18:52 Not only is he back in football and he's like, yes, I'm back, but he's also has to gain like 15 pounds and I know he was in here being like, I feel healthier than I've ever felt. I'm reading and I'm doing all this stuff. Dude, come on. You can also now eat like a million cheeseburgers and put on weight. Yeah. It's a great feeling.
Starting point is 00:19:09 It's true. Rosenhaus was on ESPN today saying that Rob is already back up to 265 pounds. Bullshit. Yeah. He's got to say that. He's like 235, but I don't think he's going to put on that much weight. I think that Arian's is going to be like, I like throwing the ball. He's got blocked.
Starting point is 00:19:22 I like throwing it outside. They got a bad like that's the one thing. If you're if you're saying like, oh my God, 10 big bucks are going to be incredible. I don't know. They're going to have to draft some off. They're going to draft somebody. I don't think that they're going to use Gronk to play. He's going to be Randy Mass out there.
Starting point is 00:19:35 He's just going to be like a big, tall, 1.7. That's not bad. Randy Mass. It's not. It also works because Randy means horny and Gronk. True. Loves getting it up. True.
Starting point is 00:19:47 All right. So we got draft coming up Thursday night. Tune in. We have a huge draft show. Barstool draft show will be part of it. We got it. Everyone else will be part of it. Steven Shea will be part of it who is like Steven Shea.
Starting point is 00:19:57 No one has ever had a better quarantine than Steven Shea because he's the only bucks fan in America and he now has Brady and Gronk. We're debuting a new music video during the draft, too. The song will be featured. Should we play the song right now? Yeah. Let's play at the end of the show. Okay.
Starting point is 00:20:12 End of the show. Give them something they have to keep listening for. Yeah. And then we also have the name of it. We interviewed Condoleezza. There we go. And then we also have, make sure you tune in, end of the show. We also have a wedding tomorrow night.
Starting point is 00:20:26 We do. I was going to get to that in my... All right. So then let's do our Hot Seat Cool Throne. Hot Seat Cool Throne is brought to you by our friends at Bud Light. This week's Cool Throne is booing the commissioner. Bud Light Seltzer is donating $1 to the NFL's draftathon benefiting COVID relief efforts for every use of hashtag boo the commission through April 25th.
Starting point is 00:20:49 Head to Bud Light's social channels for more info and make sure you stock up for the NFL draft by getting Bud Light Seltzer delivered on Drizzly. So use that hashtag boo the commission and they will donate $1 to relief efforts for COVID-19. That's pretty awesome. So do that. And also make sure you drink some Bud Light Seltzers on Thursday night because we got kind of sports back.
Starting point is 00:21:13 Hank, Hot Seat Cool Throne. My hot seat is your goat, the Joker. Yeah. But... Anti-vax cat. Spindzone. It's no wonder. Cutler and Joker.
Starting point is 00:21:24 You're the anti-vax guy. Yeah. Even though I don't believe in it and think those people are fucking psycho. You also disagree with Hank. Well, actually no. You agree with Hank's new policy of never taking shots. Never taking shots. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:37 That's true. Never taking shots. So you still confirmed your goat? Yeah. We'll get through this. We'll get through this. I mean, that was just, you know, people are just kind of this witch hunting left and right, whatever.
Starting point is 00:21:46 I, in full honesty, I've watched Jokervitch play like three tennis matches. Don't know anything about him. Can't even pronounce his name. But he's still my goat. My other hot seat was UPFT. Uh-oh. Speaking of tennis, Table Tennis, playing again on Thursday. Oh, shit!
Starting point is 00:22:01 Okay. Six o'clock. That's fine. Good. I'm actually looking forward to this. And we're actually going to do a four and a seven this time. Yep. The last one doesn't count.
Starting point is 00:22:09 I'm going for a count sweep. Because I was told that it was going to be best of seven. You won in five. I'm going to really brush up on my paint and switch. That's true. There's no technicalities that you can get off on this time. Yeah, that's true. But yeah, big cat.
Starting point is 00:22:20 Here's a little tip. The last one is the bat in ping pong. I just learned that one. Yeah. Don't tell me how to do my job. I'm just saying. If you're going to be talking about the expensive paddles that we're preparing. There was a point in the last broadcast where I started just googling it.
Starting point is 00:22:33 And I kept on saying the things off the screen, just using them totally incorrectly. Because you use a weird handle. Just on my surf. Yeah. Yeah. And I couldn't figure out what to call it. All right. So that'll be six o'clock on Thursday at nine o'clock tomorrow.
Starting point is 00:22:52 My cool throne is love. Oh, OK. I kind of stole it from PFT. You definitely stole it. Yeah. I mean, I had it written down. I didn't steal it. But then you said you were going to do it.
Starting point is 00:23:00 And I was like, I already had it written down. Whatever. My other cool throne is uniforms, which we already kind of talked about too. Patriots release theirs. Kind of trash. Disappointing, which is just my general outlook on the franchise as a whole right now. And the Chargers release theirs. And they're amazing.
Starting point is 00:23:15 The Chargers proved. I actually love that the Chargers did this. Well, Hatsi Rams, but the Chargers, we needed a uniform drop to keep the Internet honest, whereas like these are objectively amazing. No one should bash him because I said that right away. I was like, I love these, but I know how the Internet works. Someone's going to bash them and then we'll just be the cynical assholes that we are. But it feels like everyone loved them.
Starting point is 00:23:40 The only the only thing I don't say the numbers on the helmet. No, no, I love those. I love those. Reminds me like college football. Yeah. What I don't like about these uniforms is that they remind me too much of San Diego. They made me just wish that they were located an hour and a half south. He wouldn't.
Starting point is 00:23:55 Absolutely. He's crying a single tear right now. Damn. I love Boltman. Him at city council is still one of the all time greatest sports pictures I've ever seen in my life. Is that mascot still up for sale? His whole uniform?
Starting point is 00:24:08 I don't know. I was asking what like just 60,000 bucks for it. Yeah. I mean, it comes with a mystique. It does. Yeah. Oil. Oil is on the hot seat big time.
Starting point is 00:24:18 It's actually oil costs negative money. Well, let me correct you here, buddy. No, don't tell me how to do my job. People kept on being like, you can't get into the stock market on Twitter if you don't know anything like myself. So holy shit, people go at you. My understanding is that oil is trading for negative dollars. What?
Starting point is 00:24:36 Well, and earlier today, OK, was because you have to buy these futures contracts on oil. And so if you purchase them and you have to sometimes put them in storage, there's no storage space for oil. People have all the storage space filled up. So now there are all these people that are sucking gallons and barrels of oil out of the ground and don't have anywhere to send them. So they have to pay people to take it off their hands for them. Correct.
Starting point is 00:25:01 I would I would liken it to Brock Osweiler's contract with Houston Texans when they had to pay the Cleveland Browns, I think about $40 million just to take Brock Osweiler off their hands. That's essentially what's happening with oil right now. Yes. So we need to store it. Yes. Have they considered it's always sunny plot making a pile for oil?
Starting point is 00:25:20 I don't know. We should do it. I don't know why someone's like this doesn't take it. If you have a shitload of land, I guess it's probably a little bit of hazard, some lights of match. We have two floors in this office building. No one's working in right now. It's true.
Starting point is 00:25:32 It's true. Just store some some oil up here. Just keep it all in here. Put it in. Yep. You've seen Game of Thrones people, you know how that you know how that ends up now. What just put them up in a bunch of Starbucks cups and leave them around at her feet? Well, no, they won't get blown up.
Starting point is 00:25:46 Oh, yeah. If you have too much oil. Yeah. Oh, was it wildfire? People don't invade places because of oil. No, but it just takes like it just takes like one, you know, fire arrow from across the bow. I don't know what you're talking about.
Starting point is 00:25:58 Boom. Oh, you're talking about dragon glass. Nope. Season two. Yeah. What's the shit that goes in the boat? They turn. Got it.
Starting point is 00:26:06 Okay. Wildfire's oil. My cool throne is Ben Simmons shot because he's been working with his trainer. I don't know if you saw the quote from his trainer earlier today. He said when his shot is fixed, it's not even going to be just three pointers. So Ben Simmons is going to unlock a new shot. He's doing one of the big four. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:24 Big three or Rock and Jock. Yep. Our NBA GM tournament edition. He's got. He hit a shot from a hot spot on the court. He's got. So Ben Simmons is good. How did this affect the whole NBA shutting down?
Starting point is 00:26:34 How did that affect the futures bets on him making like three and a half, three points? I think everything gets null if they never play again. Damn. Yeah. I don't think anything's going to. So I don't think they're going to play again ever, ever. I heard a nasty rumor today. I'm not even going to repeat it.
Starting point is 00:26:50 I mean, I've canceled sports for 2020. You guys got mad at me for that. I've heard. I just heard a nasty rumor today. Say it. No. Say it. Say it.
Starting point is 00:26:58 Say it. PFT. College football is not happening. Yeah. No, I don't think it is. Until the spring, at least. Yeah. I don't think it is.
Starting point is 00:27:06 How can they also heard that Notre Dame is putting like or the city of South Bend is going to go out of their way to ban football games. It's it's it doesn't make sense that they can play. Like I hate that I have to say this, but it's the truth. Like how can you make kids who are not getting paid go and play if there's a pandemic on? I agree. What about pros though? Well, it was a different ball game because now everyone wants to make money and it's
Starting point is 00:27:31 like they could figure out a way to do the quarantine bubble and all that shit. I don't know. Someone make a vaccine. I do. How many times I've just thought about like, dude, just fucking make a vaccine and we thought about just going full send on a vaccine, not be legends about it. You're really you then have to be able to then mass produce it for 300 million people though.
Starting point is 00:27:50 That's the hold up. Shut up. Shut that up. But no, we can give the sports people. Give it to sports players. Oh, I give it all the sports. I don't give a fuck. I'll stay in my house if you play sports.
Starting point is 00:28:01 What if we tested it on sports players? Great. Great. Give the vaccine. No, I agree. The sports to the athletes of the world. Let them play and I'll get mine in fucking 2022. I don't care.
Starting point is 00:28:14 OK, here's the deal because we can't be hypocritical here. We can't expect a player to take a vaccine that we don't also get ourselves without knowing it's safe first. Fine. We'll take one too. Yeah, exactly. So to get to be able to watch the games on TV or get into them, you also have to take the experimental vaccine.
Starting point is 00:28:30 Mm-hmm. Who says? Done. All you nerds out there, stay in your house, all of our, all of us sports guys. Do whatever you want into my heart. Oh, man. I don't care what it is. Yeah, no, I don't think I just don't.
Starting point is 00:28:43 I think we're all just hoping and praying that like it's just going to all magically disappear. But yeah, how do you have college football? I don't think that you can. Good news is Doug's is at least 10 years away from his third heart attack. So. Doug's also into Yukon football. I never get tired of beating PFT and ping pong. Well, and also I just realized you beat me three times, one of which was lucky because
Starting point is 00:29:08 I served into my own face. PFT never happened. I just realized this. What are we going to do now? I guess we'll have to give it to Jake Marsh because my plan was to keep playing dogs until eventually I win a national championship with as a head coach and then kill him off with a heart attack and have him be reported. So I guess Jake Marsh will have to report.
Starting point is 00:29:25 I would actually. You think there's a kill screen in NCAA where it's like two thousand. Over here. We've got a kill screen. We've got a kill screen. I think I think I want to come see the Donkey Kong King kill screen like the 20th season. It just ends. No.
Starting point is 00:29:37 Yes, that actually does happen. Kill some guy. I saw some guy played 60 seasons and it said it literally the men you said like coach, you're a legend now. Time to hang them up. He died. He killed your coach office. You could also get him involved in some sort of like really, really bad scandal.
Starting point is 00:29:53 Yeah, he's scandal all the time. I mean, he's been doing scandals left and right. He's been paying. Who's that coach from Alabama that coached there for like two months? Was it price that there was this big report in sports illustrated came out the Albin football coach and he was like fucking hookers and telling him to scream roll tide at him. Bro, I got this. Yeah, I'm going to do all the dogs.
Starting point is 00:30:12 People don't talk about that guy enough. No, it has a fucking legend. That's Doug. Doug's has a has a poster him in his office. All right. My hot seat is Ryan Pace. So we got a lot of stories about Wi-Fi and how everyone's drafting. This one comes from Colleen Kane.
Starting point is 00:30:30 She said Bears GM, Ryan Pace said today he will draft in his dining room, has seven monitors and a cord running from his router down the stairs to his setup to make sure Internet is running smoothly noted a hiccup the other day when his wife vacuumed and accidentally unplugged his monitors. Why even admit this? Just say I got it. I got the fucking Internet. Don't worry about it.
Starting point is 00:30:54 This is he's he's he's got a he's got a fucking like 50 inch cord going from his dining room to his basement. I'm really enjoying all these different NFL GM's are doing home renovation projects. The GM of the Seahawks just tore down some walls in this house really to install new cables. I love it. They're freaking out. They're going to screw up their own homes and it's not going to work and it's going
Starting point is 00:31:17 to be glorious to watch. I'm actually I haven't been this excited for a draft and part of that is because the our words are picking second. But I haven't been excited like this for a draft in years and years because of the potential for just absolute chaos and weirdness. Yeah, it's going to be crazy. Tune in on Thursday nights. It's going to be fucking awesome.
Starting point is 00:31:35 We also have Trey Wingo coming up in a second. My cool throne is coffee, coffee drinkers. I know I tweeted this earlier and just popped popped in my head. Nick Van Exel. Yes. Ice coffee drinkers. What like drinking coffee at this point in my life with the quarantine, everything's going on is easily the highlight of my day.
Starting point is 00:31:54 I don't know if you guys agree, but like you've turned into coffee dad looking into the yeah, like waking up being like, Oh, when am I going to have my coffee grabbing the mug? Yeah, there's nothing else. There's nothing else to look forward to. You know that Twitter account coffee dad. Just like literally every tweet is like going to have some coffee. Yeah, that's me. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:11 Are you guys not do you guys not look forward to your coffee? I have coffee. I look forward to my deathwish coffee, but deathwish coffee every morning. But he like that's all I have. It's the it's the 10 minutes like going up to the coffee, then drinking the coffee and then the 10 minutes after we're like, that was good coffee. I look forward to my first beer of the day. I look forward to dropping in a war zone really gets the blood flow.
Starting point is 00:32:32 Okay. All right. So we all have a game of thrones too. We all have our things. Let me go home and watch an episode. I actually puke before every Doug's game so I don't really look forward to it. Get so fucking nervous about the teenagers bullying me. That's good though.
Starting point is 00:32:43 When you stop puking, that's when you have a problem. That's true. The coffee though. I don't know. It's just, it's all I have left. Do you make homemade ice? No French press. Ooh la la.
Starting point is 00:32:52 It's, I mean, it's like when you, when you say it, it sounds crazy. Kiss it with your tongue. It's literally the easiest thing. It's boiling water and then you just put like the grounds in the thing and then you just push the thing down and then you have coffee. That's it. That's pretty sweet. What about the way that the dude from Breaking Bad made it where he had like a whole setup?
Starting point is 00:33:10 What do you have? He had like a percolator or something. Yeah. See, I'm not going to become a coffee guy because then you're just a douchebag. Coffee? No, he's a coffee guy. No, I like this. It sounds like you're a coffee guy.
Starting point is 00:33:20 No, I like to drink it. No, I like to dad, not a coffee guy. There's a difference. Yeah. Coffee guy is like, now I'm going to start brewing. Like an IPA guy. IPAs in my tub. No.
Starting point is 00:33:28 No, I'm not doing that. I just like to drink coffee. I had five cups today. I'm going to have another death wish right now. I had five cups today and I feel good. That's totally normal. I think it's just because it really is the act of like getting up and being like, all right, time for another cup of coffee.
Starting point is 00:33:40 Yeah. I'll tell you what it is. It's that it makes your brain feel different. Yeah. About something. So like I don't care what it is. If I'm like, if I'm going to bed and I have a sip of Nyquil to knock me out. If I'm it's late in the afternoon, maybe I have an extracurricular gummy.
Starting point is 00:33:54 Then that's something I look forward to. If it's my first beer, I look forward to that. If it's a stimulant like coffee, I look just anything that makes me feel different over the course of the day. Oh, we know. And I'm not a drug guy. That's one misconception about this. Oh, speaking of which, Phil Mickelson just responded to that tweet of mine.
Starting point is 00:34:11 What is Phil doing online? I said, coffee is for wellness, physical, physically and mentally, who even knew some people don't drink it. That's so sad to hear. I don't know if I'm taking my physical. This is where Leroy needs to come over the top and be like, Phil, come on the show. Yes, Phil. You want me to hit him with it?
Starting point is 00:34:25 Phil, come on the show. Yeah, Phil, come on the show. And now everyone listening to this needs to go and reply to Leroy. Yes. Phil, I don't know if I'm taking physical and mental wellness from Phil Mickelson. Wow. I absolutely. Have you seen his calves?
Starting point is 00:34:39 Yeah, that's true. Tremendous calves. He is the idea of physical specimen, both in coffee and breasts. Well, he's lost some of the mantits, which is very disappointing. I'm on a diet. So I'm on the way. How's that going? Meet you there, Phil.
Starting point is 00:34:53 Pretty good. Just drinking coffee to stun your appetite. Five cups of coffee a day. That's the big cat diet. Dude, Nick Costas, who's a good follow on Twitter, gambling Twitter, he said that he started adding a cigarette with his coffee during quarantine. I was like, I might do that. If I could smoke inside, I would do it.
Starting point is 00:35:12 I considered starting to smoke again when the quarantine started. Dude, having something about having a cigarette inside is fucking awesome. Six inside. Piki Blinders been watching Piki Blinders. They just rip him 24 seven. It's like, what? Where? Where were we in the 1800s?
Starting point is 00:35:27 Dude, six inside is one of my favorite things in the entire world. We got a Nashville. We found that random trailer bar. Yeah. I think it was called Santa's. I just went back there two nights in a row just so I could smoke more and I'm not even a cigarette smoker. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:35:40 All right. Let's get to Trey Wingo. Trey Wingo. Oh, PFT is writing. Phil, come on. Pardon my take. Park. Yes.
Starting point is 00:35:48 Yes. See, we changed the avatar to guestbooker for part. Guestbooker for pardon my take. Also a dog. You should make it headbooker and just see what Kelly says. See how long it takes for that text to come in. Can you get a picture of Leroy looking at a calendar and make that the avatar? I'll have it be Leroy, but with bangs and like, I don't know, a bob haircut.
Starting point is 00:36:08 Yes. Yes. I got it. Like what do we got? Maybe put a Sharpie in his hand. All right. PFT, you got an ad before we get to our man, Trey Wingo. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:36:20 Before we get to Trey, we're very excited to announce a brand new partner. Do we have a new partner? Noise, Hank? I know we have a new segment noise. No. New partner though. Here we go. That was pretty impressive.
Starting point is 00:36:33 All right. We have a brand new partner. It's Bose. You guys know Bose. They're coming in for a 2020 NFL draft coverage as the official audio partner. They hooked us all up with awesome Bose 700 headphones. The Bose headphones 700 are perfect for when it's time to enjoy your music, work from home or listen to your favorite podcast like part of my take.
Starting point is 00:36:53 I use them at the gym all the time. They are the perfect headphone for working out. They have 11 levels of noise cancellation. They have a signature active EQ and impressive bass response. Whether you're listening at low volumes or really want to turn it up, your music sounds just like it should. It's very rare that we come across a product that will actually change your life. My life was changed when I got my first pair of Bose wireless headphones.
Starting point is 00:37:17 Not an exaggeration. It actually really helped me out. I love my Bose headphones, especially if you're flying somewhere very, very convenient. The importance of headphones for communication during the draft and selection process is at a premium. So that's why they've teamed up with many, many teams. That's why they're teaming up with the 2020 NFL draft to help everybody out. So you can shop for headphones.
Starting point is 00:37:38 The headphone 700 at Bose.com slash Barstool can learn more what these headphones can do at Bose.com. That's Bose.com slash Barstool. They're teamed up with Joe Burrow, our guy, Tua, CD Lam, Justin Herbert, a bunch of other guys in the NFL draft. Go check them out right now, our big new partner, Bose. Now, Trey Wingo. Okay, we now welcome on recurring guest and friend of the program.
Starting point is 00:38:06 He's going to be in every single television in America in your living room on Thursday night because he's hosting the draft and hosting everyone for the draft. It is Trey Wingo. Trey, thank you for joining us. First off, I want to say a belated happy holidays on Monday. Sorry about not having you on then. It's quite all right. Don't worry about it.
Starting point is 00:38:28 It's all good boys. How are we? Okay. We're doing good. Let's start with logistically. Have you had the moment where you've realized like this is insane, what we're about to do and you're going to basically host a draft across two different networks and everyone's going to be remote on Thursday night?
Starting point is 00:38:46 Yeah. I mean, not really. We're going in for a huge test Wednesday and maybe it'll sink in then, but like, you know, the draft is insane to begin with. Like right before you guys came on, we were just flicking through the channels or right where you guys called. We were flicking through the channels on the 2017 draft from Philadelphia was on. By the way, I have bad news for what happened to that one.
Starting point is 00:39:07 At the top of that one, I saw it too. Okay. They just picked Mitch Travis again on the board. Football told me twice. I mean, the draft, the draft itself is insane, right? I mean, it's crazy. So like it's just from the way I'm looking at it, like everything going up to the draft for me is the same and how it plays out is how it's going to play out, but I can't worry
Starting point is 00:39:30 about that. Right? I'm just going to have to do the, do the thing and we'll figure it out as we go along. What's the sentiment from around the NFL? Because I've read some pretty crazy stories about NFL GM's front offices tearing up rooms in their house to put in new like high, high bandwidth cables, things like that. What I'll put it this way, what have you learned from conducting your show remotely that you think the NFL could, could learn before the draft starts?
Starting point is 00:39:55 Well, I mean, like there's, it's going to be messy, right? There's no way around that. And I think that it's not going to go smooth. I mean, they had their, they had their test run the other day and it was a two and a half minute glitch with the Bengals trying to make the first pick and, and you know, the Joe Kaha, the Bengals, it was actually on the, on the leaks front. So they're, they had to figure that out. But after that, it went okay.
Starting point is 00:40:15 Diana Rossini was on with us this morning and she was hilarious. She was talking to one GM and apparently he couldn't get his Wi-Fi to go because all the kids were watching Disney Plus and it was eating up all the bandwidth in the house. So look, it's going to be weird. I mean, like normally you, we, we've seen situations in the past where if a, the team doesn't get it on time, you know, the Vikings in 03, the Ravens in 2011, and they were jumped, that's not going to happen this year. I think there's going to be a little more leeway.
Starting point is 00:40:44 Adam Schefter had the story that the Lions guy, the IT guy is going to be in a win a bagel outside his house. Right. That's, that's the funniest part. That's hilarious. Right. Number one, if you're in a win a bagel, that's a Chevy, right? You work for the Lions.
Starting point is 00:40:59 You should be in a Ford. That's like, this is, this is why your next level. I had not even put that together, but you were a hundred percent right. Or they could be in a Vanny Woodhead, which would also work. Here's a crazy thought. Why not just let him in the house? He, I don't think he has to be in the driveway, right? Just like waiting like he's conducting a heist.
Starting point is 00:41:17 They're basically saying one person in a house at a time. And if I'll actually send out a, a, a league wide email saying, don't try and gain the system, like some GM or coaches downstairs or some owner is downstairs and it's like GM or coaches hiding in his master bathroom upstairs. They don't want that. They're like, if you do that, we're going to find out about it. So, you know, the hammer will come down on you. No, Ernie Adams is definitely going to be like under Belichick's bed.
Starting point is 00:41:43 Whisper to him. Crazy. That is crazy. So wait, so, so logistically speaking, you're going to be the only person in studio, correct? Yeah, it'll be me and the camera operator and maybe one other person. And that's it. Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:41:55 And then what is the plan for spreading the ball around between ESPN and NFL network talent? Because we had Daniel Jeremiah on a Monday and we're like, are you going to get called on or are you going to, do you have a list that you're going to basically give preference to your guys and then, and then maybe sprinkle it to the NFL network guys? No, look, I think the idea is look, like, you know, Daniel used to work for us before he worked for the NFL network.
Starting point is 00:42:23 Michael Irving used to work with us. You know, obviously Rich has been here. Kurt Warner has, you know, sort of been around. We're going to get everybody in. And the way I'm looking at it is your, is it a lot more people? Sure. But it's just, it's that many more resources at our disposal. So, you know, this is, you guys know this, this is such an incestuous business.
Starting point is 00:42:42 Like half the people at Fox or NFL network or ESPN all worked at one place or one another. So it's kind of actually cool that we get a chance to do this. Like last year, I remember we had a big thing on sports. And it was me, Rich and Reese, and we all just sort of, you know, telling stories leading up to the draft and how it went. Then we all went our separate ways, but we're all sort of in this together this year, which is kind of cool because I think that's the message the NFL wants
Starting point is 00:43:06 to get out there is like, you know, the, the draft is always about like, okay, we can suck forever, but the draft this year, it's going to turn around. It gives hope, a little new beginning. And obviously that's something that a lot of us are looking for right now in our daily lives and hopefully it'll give us a little injection of some semblance of normalcy when sports has just gone off the charts. Yeah. Football is family is what they're getting at.
Starting point is 00:43:29 I like that. How, how bummed are you from a personal standpoint that you don't get to go to Las Vegas? Yeah, you know, I just said, watching that draft in Philly. And that was the first one where we were outdoors. Yes. The, uh, the, the, the first two years in Chicago, the day three was outdoors, but the first that year in Philly, the whole thing was outdoors and it was nuts.
Starting point is 00:43:51 I mean, Friday night, uh, in round three, we had 125,000 people screaming, fly Eagles fly at the top of their lungs when we made them, when the Eagles made their third round pick. And it was, it was awesome. We just shut up for like four minutes and let them finish the song. You know, and then Drew Pearson got up there and yelled at the crowds. They yelled back and I mean, there's no way to replicate that. Right.
Starting point is 00:44:14 I think we were planning on having close to three quarters of a million people in Las Vegas. We had 650,000 in Nashville last year. That's just not going to be there. It's, and there's no way to, to replicate that. So that's, that's going to be, I think the biggest challenge is to keep that energy going. Cause you fed off the crowd.
Starting point is 00:44:32 You guys have been there, you know. Yeah, yeah, absolutely. Has, have you had the moment yet where you're like, this is actually an opportunity of a lifetime for you personally, given the captive audience here and there's no, you know, usually the drafts running against the NBA playoffs or the Stanley Cup playoffs. You are basically like America's dad. I'm not going to say step dad.
Starting point is 00:44:53 America's dad. I was about to say step dad would be in, in, in conjunction with this show. That would be more inappropriate. That's just for me because Mike Greenberg, I always looked at as my morning show dad. And so then you came in and you're like, Hey, I'm cool too. And you turn to chair around and you're like, let me wrap it. You kids for a little bit. But no, in this situation, you are definitely you're American.
Starting point is 00:45:12 Yes. You're, you're going to basically, you're going to be trending. You're going to trend on Twitter. Everyone's going to be like, Trey Wingo, great job. Unless you screw it up, obviously. But as, as we're sitting here right now on Tuesday night, everyone's going to be like, Trey Wingo, holy shit, man, way to knock it out of the park. Well, look, the way I look at it and the way I've always sort of done it, no
Starting point is 00:45:29 matter what I was doing, like when I was doing the women's NCAA tournament, if I'm doing it, it's the most important thing, right? That's sort of the way I've, I've, I've gone about it. So that hasn't changed at all for me. I mean, it really hasn't. And, and maybe at some point over the next 24 to 48 hours, it'll hit me. But I, I don't think so because it's just doing the thing. And then we're just putting it out there.
Starting point is 00:45:52 I mean, that, honestly, I know that this may sound stupid, but that, that hasn't even thought, that thought hasn't really even crossed my mind. It's just about preparation and getting ready and then executing. So just think about it for a second. I don't want you to get the gifts or anything. Yeah. I don't want you to get the yips, but like literally everyone's going to be watching you.
Starting point is 00:46:11 Yeah, we thought, I mean, listen, I mean, seriously, like, what's the worst thing that could happen? I mean, honestly, what's the worst thing that could happen? Like Roger Goodell's face freezes or you're having an interview with Ryan Pace and the feed cuts out. I mean, it's, it's going to be messy. That the draft on its best night is never fully smooth. I mean, my God, speaking of the national holiday on Monday, you know,
Starting point is 00:46:34 Laramie Tunsel showed up smoking weed and a gas mask. True, true. When Jerry Jones's friends might walk by in the background with their clothes. It's a good point. It's a good point. It isn't. It's chaotic and now it might even be better. It might even be less chaotic now with with a little more structure.
Starting point is 00:46:50 Well, the only thing that's weird, as you guys know this, is when you're sitting next to someone and doing this, like nonverbal communication is a thing. Okay. They wave you want to get in. I got that. And then there's the pauses because there's going to be Lewis and there's going to be Booger. There's going to be Mal.
Starting point is 00:47:03 There's going to be Todd. There's going to be Michael. There's going to be Daniel. There's going to be Kurt. There's going to be Rich. I mean, that part of it. I mean, we also have 60 guys. We have 60 players set up with remote.
Starting point is 00:47:15 I don't want to say camera crews because they're not there, but remote setups to be able to deal with them and Susie with the interviews. So the pauses are going to be a little weird. That's the thing that I would think of because everybody's not always on the same. It's not always in sync. You know what I mean? You can tell when there's a little pause sometimes and there's a half second or
Starting point is 00:47:31 second delay and it feels like forever. So that'll be the thing to make sure we don't step on each other's toes, but it's going to happen. There's no way around it. Yeah, so way around it and just have to sort of deal with it. What's your professional trick for dealing with that pause? Because I always do notice on TV and I always get like secondhand embarrassment for the anchors that are having to deal with it.
Starting point is 00:47:48 When you say, okay, we're going to kick it over to so-and-so. And then there's, you know, they're nodding. They're looking at the camera. They're nodding. At what point do you jump in and say, uh, well, it looks like we're having some technical difficulties. How long do you give them? Well, it's funny when you, when you start like early on and you hear that,
Starting point is 00:48:05 you're like, you think a second is like a day, you know, and you want to jump in right away. So I, you know, I'm going to count in my head like, okay, three, four. And if nobody's saying anything and I'm not hearing anything from anybody in like the control room or the truck, then I'm going to say, well, clearly that's not happening. So we're going to try and go to somewhere else. So, you know, you just have to, it's like, it's like flying over the Rockies,
Starting point is 00:48:29 right? You know, there's going to be some turbulence. So you just want to wear your seatbelt. Yes. So let's talk a little, like actual draft. Um, what, what's going on with the Tua slide? Do you buy it or do you think this is maybe someone trying to sneak into those top three or four picks and pick up a franchise quarterback?
Starting point is 00:48:47 Well, I kind of buy it because of the way the draft is this year, right? I mean, you can't bring him into your building. You can't, you can't check him out. And, you know, he put up that 10 second video. What about a month ago and people were freaking out about it and my thought process, yeah, he looked great. But how do we know? Like, as soon as the camera stopped rolling, he was like, son of a dick.
Starting point is 00:49:08 You know, you just have no idea. And then he went through the nine minute 22 second thing. And I think that, that calmed a lot of people's fears. But the really weird part about this guys is it's Miami, right? Because in 06 Miami refused to clear Drew Brees because they didn't think his shoulder was strong enough. So they passed and they settled on signing Dante Culpepper and free agency. Clearly that was not the way to go.
Starting point is 00:49:35 And if they do pass on to it, if he is healthy, they might be going down that road again. Right. And guess who to his college coach was the former coach of dolphins who passed on Drew Brees. So is, is Saban weighing in on this? Is Saban like, Hey, don't fuck this up again? Yeah, Saban has been like, look, two is everything.
Starting point is 00:49:54 He's going to be fine, but no one knows. I mean, like the weird thing about two is it's not just the hip injury, right? It's the two ankle sprains. It's by the way, a lot of doctors say that he's actually going to be much more stable by having that wire surgery in both ankles, but he also had the lingering knee injury. So like the hip injury, whatever happened. It's a freak thing.
Starting point is 00:50:14 But in three years, he's had the two surgeries on both angles, a lingering knee issue and the hip. And then you're thinking, all right, okay. So he was really good in college, but there were two things about two in college. He was really good and he really didn't get through a season healthy. So when you get to the next level, when it's bigger, faster, stronger, is that going to be a problem? And I think that's what, I think that's part of the process that Miami is
Starting point is 00:50:38 weighing here. Look, nobody knows, like Thursday night, nobody's going to be right, but that's the beauty of the draft. Nobody's wrong and nobody's right. Now you go back to the 2015 draft, the top 10 picks in the draft in 2015, only one of those guys is still with the team that signed him. That's Brandon Scherf, the offensive lineman for Washington. Everybody else, including the two quarterbacks have moved on.
Starting point is 00:50:58 That's crazy. That's crazy. Who do you think is going to be the first wide receiver taken? You know, I think that a lot of people are locked in on Jerry Judy, but boy, I love Henry Ruggs. I mean, he, uh, you know, he has 98 catches at Alabama, 24 of them went for touchdowns, he put another way, like one of every four catches he took to the house.
Starting point is 00:51:16 Now, obviously you're not going to do that in the pros, but he's not just a one trick pony, like normally straight, straight line speed guys like John Ross in Cincinnati, that's what they do. But yeah, but he, yeah, he runs the routes. He only had one drop. I mean, it's really interesting because it just rugs CD lamb and Jerry Judy, those three guys, if you talk to five different player personnel guys, they'll give you five different answers on the order of those three guys.
Starting point is 00:51:42 Have you gotten a sense, uh, from around the league of a team that might be a little more aggressive given the circumstances, a team that you can hear, you know, for more than a few people like, Hey, they're going to move up. They're going to be like trading, wheeling and dealing, uh, in this draft. Well, you know, I don't, because of what we're dealing with here, I, I'm wondering if it's going to be less aggressive. Like John Elway came out and said yesterday, we had six trades in the first round last year.
Starting point is 00:52:07 I don't know if we're going to have that many unless they're prepackaged trades. Like you, you, you figured it out ahead of time because if you are concerned about the technology and you're, you're Winnebago or your Vanny Woodhead guy isn't, isn't out at your driveway. You know, are you going to be able to, to figure that out? So I, usually teams that have multiple picks are very aggressive, right? The dolphins have three, the Raiders have two, the Niners have two, but they're already looking to trade back.
Starting point is 00:52:31 The Vikings have two, and I think the Jaguars have two. So normally those teams that are most aggressive are teams with multiple picks and normally in most situations, those teams with multiple pictures is traded for a quarterback. Although the saints did it a few years ago and traded a first rounder for Marcus Davenport, the defensive end out of UTSA, San Antonio. And he's been okay, but he hasn't been exactly what they thought. If you're spending that kind of draft capital, you're probably looking at a
Starting point is 00:52:57 quarterback. It just dawned on me, how awesome is it to have covered all these drafts and be able to just say where guys went to college? Because that's like the baseline of having someone think you're a super smart sports guy to be like, yeah, Marcus Davenport, UTSA, and everyone's like, damn, you know your shit. Well, it's funny, big cat, because like the draft is like, I know like all this stuff about guys, but over the next three months, it'll fall out of my
Starting point is 00:53:22 head, you know, and then you'll forget, they'll go into the season and I'll see that guy and like, oh yeah, wasn't he the guy that was the juggler or whatever, and then it sort of comes back, you know, but I mean, it's like cramming for an exam, you know, I don't have to know everything all semester long. But if I can nail it over three days before the test that I'm getting the grade I need, that's perfect analogy. Speaking of that juggler guy, what is the one fun fact that you just can't wait to unleash on America in the first round about somebody coming off the
Starting point is 00:53:48 board? Well, I don't know if a lot of these guys are going to be first rounders. A lot of those great stories are like in the second round, but there is a potential first round running back who is a, would have been a philosophy major at Harvard and the, his favorite philosopher is Immanuel Kant, the Georgian, the German philosopher. Be careful how you pronounce that. You might get trending if you fumble over that name there.
Starting point is 00:54:12 Just very careful. Got to pronounce it very slowly. Yes. Yes. A-A-N-T. Yes. Immanuel Kant. That would be trending for the wrong reason.
Starting point is 00:54:20 Yes. We also have an offensive lineman who also played snare drum in the high school band. That's what we realized he had to, had to do something else. There's a guy who swims with sharks and cliff jumps. That's also good. Ooh, red flag. There's just a bunch of fun stuff, you know, that's the kind of stuff I enjoy
Starting point is 00:54:35 because everybody looks at the draft and they're like, we're just getting a product. Now you're getting a person. Yep. Some of these people are 21, 22 years old and they have some really cool stuff in their background and I like telling that part of it. So I think Big Cat wants to get to this eventually. Bell, just jump in and say it.
Starting point is 00:54:50 So Chicago doesn't have any picks on the first day. They're picking in the second round. 43. Do you expect the Bears to show up unexpectedly? Kind of a backdoor move and get a surprise Bears appearance on Thursday. In the first round? Yeah, surprise Bears. It's on your back porch.
Starting point is 00:55:09 Yeah. Oh, oh, you mean like the kind that would be on my back porch. So if I'm leaning over. Yeah. Oh, I didn't think about that, but yeah, that too. Like peeking in to see what we're doing. Yes, but it's, but it's night out. I mean, you never know.
Starting point is 00:55:21 It's day out in the picture. I mean, like, for example, like the Bears came back last week. Did they? Yeah, they're here every night, bro. I pick it every night. You need to, you need to do a live stream, like a nature live stream in your backyard. Yeah, set up a gopro.
Starting point is 00:55:38 It's, it's no, it's nuts. I mean, they're, they're here like all the time. And we, we actually have like over the last three months, we've noticed that there's a couple of Bobcats out there as well. It's like, it's crazy up here. Rural Connecticut is a great place to ride out of pandemic, but you are in bleeping nature out here. That's crazy.
Starting point is 00:55:57 I do want to discuss the bear picture real quick. Then we'll get back to the draft stuff. So last I heard the party line on the bear picture was you had the same bear that showed up a couple of years ago. But then you didn't get a picture of it this time. No, this bear has been, I mean, like he's been here and I'm assuming it's the same bear cause we've been in the same house for five years and it shows up all the time, but he came through, it was like a Friday night at like 11 o'clock
Starting point is 00:56:22 and he was on the deck eating the bird feeder. And then we turned on the light cause we heard the thump of the bird feeder falling down. And so he got scared and ran away. So I couldn't get a picture. So this was an 11 o'clock at night. So I just looked for a picture of a bear on the deck. And I said, so a bear was on my deck.
Starting point is 00:56:42 And I didn't think anything about it because I figured it was a daytime photo. People wouldn't think I was saying that was the bear. I was just using that as an analogy. And I went to bed and the next morning I woke up and it was kind of hilarious. Friday bear. It was, it was interesting trade because me, like a lot of other people in America, I think we thought you were pulling a fast one on us and saying that this is the bear and that bear had gone previously viral.
Starting point is 00:57:07 Yeah, big, big cat. How many bear videos have I sent you? You, he actually has sent me like three or four bear videos of just a bear just hanging out in his backyard. I believe that there are bears. Well, you need to start putting those videos online so that everyone else can understand that this is an active bear situation that you have. It's, I mean, it is what I mean, they're all over Connecticut, right?
Starting point is 00:57:29 They're, it's, it's, I think that was kind of funny. Some people, somebody put a photo shop of like sharks in my bathtub, which I thought was very funny. I thought, I thought that one was pretty good. So, you know, it's like when I ate the chip, you know, that hot chip, I did it twice in one day and people still didn't believe I ate the chip. So, you know, people are going to believe what they believe. It's true.
Starting point is 00:57:47 It's true. Um, all right. The other big thing I wanted to discuss with you draft prep, I wrote down some quotes that you could possibly use. Uh, if you want to take out a pen and paper, um, I'll just fire them off. So chase young from Maryland, I'm thinking crab cakes and football. That's what Maryland does. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:58:08 That's pretty good. That one would be good. And this will be the second straight year that the Redskins did that, right? Cause Dwayne, uh, Dwayne Haskins went to high school in Maryland with Dan Snyder's kid, I believe. Yes. Um, what about like just doing the lock it up, lock it up. No, you lock it up when you want someone to stop talking on the zoom.
Starting point is 00:58:27 Lock it up. All right. I will, I'll, for you, I will work that in. Okay. Um, when, here's my question for you. Yeah. Here's my question for you. How concerned are you about the tread on Jonathan Taylor's tires?
Starting point is 00:58:39 Well, running back is always 926 carries knowledge. I know he is special though. And he's, he's got the size and the speed. Like you don't see that combo very often. But yeah, I mean, he's an awesome, awesome player. I feel like his career, like not getting invited to New York was a travesty because he was that good for, for that many years. But yeah, I would not be a little worried about the, the tread on his tire.
Starting point is 00:59:03 Now, don't, don't get me off my old school, uh, Anchorman wedding crasher quotes. Okay. I see what you did. Sorry, I interrupted you. Um, then now this one, you take it or leave it. But I was thinking, given the, the, the time with the pandemic and everything, you could just open up the broadcast with death.
Starting point is 00:59:20 You are my bitch lover. That's from wedding crashers, maybe not. Probably gonna think that wouldn't set the tone off. Okay. What about if we get a big trade and you just give the old classic, will that escalate it quickly? Yes, that'll probably happen. Okay.
Starting point is 00:59:34 And then my last, you can also use that if, if a bunch of players from the same position get taken, like right after each other. Yes. Yes. In succession. Yes. And with the receivers, there could be a run of those that like from 10 to 20. That's what I'm thinking.
Starting point is 00:59:46 That's your prime territory. Um, if the Ravens do anything crazy, you can give them a old, uh, great Odin's Raven from Anchorman. Yes. Absolutely. That we are ready, although Mel will probably be upset. If I take that and he doesn't. Okay.
Starting point is 00:59:57 And then the last one I had was from old school, maybe when the vagate, when the Vegas Raiders pick their first player, you can do a little, uh, America. Can you earmuff for me? We're, yeah, this guy's going to get so much ass here. It's going to be sick. I'm talking crazy boy band ass. Say that. Potentially.
Starting point is 01:00:19 Okay. That's not a no. That's not a no. That one is, it's a thought bubble. We're working on that one. Just think about it. Have this one ready too. Just in case of emergency.
Starting point is 01:00:27 If there's like a GM or somebody that you're talking to and they have like a little kid that runs behind them in the background naked, just say, we're going streaking, yes, yes, yes. By the way, who's the owner? You think that is going to leave the camera on when he goes to the John, right? We, which owner is going to actually keep the video zoom on what he has retired to Virginia McCasky. I was going to say, I think Mark Davis might conduct it from the toilet.
Starting point is 01:00:51 Yeah. Yeah, that's true. Just get up. Listen, this, these are, these are weird times. These are end of days we're sort of dealing with right here. Well, um, we're rooting for you. We appreciate you coming on. This has been fun.
Starting point is 01:01:04 Um, I know that you, uh, you do, let's give Trey a lot of credit because we do make jokes at your expense and you always take them very well. So you, you, you roll with the punches, the old school, the wedding crashers, the, uh, Anchorman quote jokes. So we appreciate this though. And good luck. Don't think about the fact that everyone in America is going to be watching you on Thursday night.
Starting point is 01:01:25 Don't think about that. You know, listen, we, if we come close to the days, the numbers for the last dance will all be very happy. And I promise you the one thing I'm not going to do too much in this entire process is think, yes. And I'm going to say this, I'm going to give you a guarantee on behalf of PFT. If you nail this draft, I think PFT has to tweet out great job.
Starting point is 01:01:45 America's dad. I'll do that. No, no, no, no, here's what I'll do. If you, if you nail it, if you nail it, which I fully expect you to. I'll tweet out, did we just become best friends? I think so. Well, do karate in the garage. We'll do some Catalina wine.
Starting point is 01:02:04 All right. Well, Trey, thank you so much, man. We appreciate it. Best of luck on Thursday night. Everyone, I don't have to, I'll say it. ESPN is going to be broadcasting. Everyone's going to be watching because we have nothing. Did you want to get one last Disney plus plugin?
Starting point is 01:02:16 I noticed that you slid that in. Yeah, do it. But listen to that. I was just reporting what Diana Rossini, your friend. Yep, confirmed. What your friend told me on the radio this morning. Okay, all right, fine, fine, that works. All right, well, Trey, thanks so much.
Starting point is 01:02:32 Appreciate it, man. Guys, you're the best. Always fun to talk to you guys. We'll talk to you soon. Thank you, Trey. Good luck.

Starting point is 01:04:18 OK, let's get some segments and also clean up Hank's cool throne that he just said love and then just left us high and dry. Stole it from PFD. Well, I think it's because we all agree that love is always on the cool throne. Love is always on the cool throne. Love you guys. I do love you guys. I say it all the time. I do. All right, what I like your shirt, by the way.
Starting point is 01:04:36 Thank you. What is it? It's a brand new Mac Weldon shirt and the sponsor part of my tape. Dude, that was totally organic. That was 100% organic. Yeah. I just looked over and I was like, damn, you got a pocket. Anytime you put a pocket on a shirt, you just there's something about it. It's just like, dude, I got an extra pocket.
Starting point is 01:04:50 What are you going to do? A little tip, if you put a hair tie thing in there, especially if it's one that's been loose for a while, yeah, kind of looks like you got a magnum. Yes, there it is. So a little pro tip if you're going to. But it is. It's like it's such a flex to be like, hey, ask me if I have three pockets. Oh, yeah, I do.
Starting point is 01:05:04 But love is on the cool throne because the very first part in my take wedding is happening tonight. That's right, Wednesday tonight. Where it's it's going to be on the Twitch stream on the part of my take Twitch account. Two listeners of the show, Drake, a good Drake and Abby are getting hitched. So it's funny, the I think their first date they ever went on
Starting point is 01:05:27 or one of their first dates. They were Wrigley Field back in 2016 and Big Cat saw him and you said to them, you guys are perfect for each other. I don't even remember, but that's I wish I could have bet on that. Yeah. And so that was like the start of the relationship. They hit me up about a week and a half ago to see if I would marry them. And then I tweeted out like a few days ago, hey, if anyone wants to get married on board, I'll marry you on a Zoom meeting.
Starting point is 01:05:51 And they reached out and the guy was like, hey, I already hit you up about this. What gives? Good point. Great point, dude. So tonight we're going to have a wedding. It's going to be at 9 p.m. Eastern time, 8 central. And it's going to feature Big Cat. It's going to feature Joey. It's going to feature Hank. It's going to feature love love feature Matt Caesar.
Starting point is 01:06:13 Yep. And so we're going to do the whole thing. It might be the first wedding ever conducted on Twitch, too. So yeah, it's history. It's history and the main feature of history. No F's in the stream while we're doing the vows. No, yes. Do not do that. Their family will be watching. Let's all be positive. Do it, do it, do it.
Starting point is 01:06:30 And then Coach Dugs is going to be coaching right after. Yep. So it's a nice you got your your entire entertainment ready. Love and football. Yes, absolutely. All right. Next segment we have Oh, this league. This actually is crazy. Yannick Ngakwe wants to get traded.
Starting point is 01:06:48 So he took it to Twitter. Tony Khan, co-owner of the Jaguars. Shotcon son. Yeah, shotcon son. OK, he's co-owner. He's GM, vice president, vice president. He's someone big. So they basically just had it out on Twitter.
Starting point is 01:07:05 I'll read it. Yeah, actually, you know what? You read Yannick and I'll read Tony Khan. Do you have it? Owner slash football analytics at the Jaguars. Do you have it? I'll send it to you. I'll send you it.
Starting point is 01:07:14 OK, Hank, stall for us, please. Stall, stall, stall. I'm also going to be going after dub number four. OK, no one cares. After Coach Dugs. OK, I got it. I got it pulled up. All right, you be Yannick.
Starting point is 01:07:28 Stop hiding, Mo. I'm this is Tony Khan. I'm not I'm not in hiding, sir. Quick with the sir. I'm in isolation getting ready for the draft. I've been pretty active on social media in isolation, but you wouldn't know that since you and followed me again. This league.
Starting point is 01:07:44 That is big time this league. Since you're feeling might today, let's both let the world in on the truth. We've been had a discussion that the Chargers game was my last game, yet you try to backdoor the situation without answering any of my camp's calls. SMH, you spoiled bra, holding up people for no reason. Clown emoji.
Starting point is 01:08:03 Just to just to reiterate, this is star defensive player for the Jaguars tweeting at the vice president, co-owner of the Jaguars. You're a clown and basically like use the clown emoji, which I think is worse airing everything out. OK, he wrote back Tony Conor back. It's a new regime here, sir. Heavy on the sir.
Starting point is 01:08:23 I kind of like that style. I thank you from the bottom of my heart for all the contributions you made here. That said, tweeting insults at me won't get you traded any faster. Only good trade compensation will do that. Please redirect your efforts into a more productive outlet. That's a little like that's a, you know,
Starting point is 01:08:40 like go stop being triggered, dude. Go do something with your life. Yeah, get a life. Yeah, get a life nerd. Just trade me. I don't need the speech checkered flag emoji. Wow. Tony Conor responded.
Starting point is 01:08:52 It's actually, it's honestly tough to come back from the checkered flag emoji because he just said that he won. Yeah, he declared himself end of race. Yes, he said, show me the compensation. I'm sure you're really driving up the price today, by the way. And you know what? Kind of a good point by Tony Conn. Like, hey man, you want to be traded?
Starting point is 01:09:11 We want to trade you? You know what you shouldn't do? Is get super aggro on Twitter in front of the whole world so that everyone now is going to call me and be like, hey man, no chance you can bring this guy back. We'll give you a six rounder. Also, I mean, if you just didn't respond to that tweet, that's probably going to help the value too.
Starting point is 01:09:29 All around this is a mess. Yes. I feel like there's been a lot of that in Jacksonville recently. Poor Doug Morone, he's doing everything he can. He's the only adult in the building. He is. And Leonard Farnette, he's also outwardly campaigning for Cam Newton to come.
Starting point is 01:09:43 And also, maybe getting traded. Now they're trying to trade him for nothing. To the Chiefs is what I saw. That's not going to happen. Flourious of the Chiefs. They already got Playoff Damien there. Yeah, Playoff D, baby. Regular Nard Farnette.
Starting point is 01:09:56 All right, let's finish up with our Mount Fluschmore. I'm excited about this one. I think it's going to be funny. Very open-ended, and Hank can't ruin it. The heel of Mount Fluschmore season. The greatest. I'm giving you credit. But you're making up titles.
Starting point is 01:10:13 Like, I have not told a lie. You're a heel. Yeah, I mean, it's great. You said jalapenos are a bad pizza top. They are. Here's the thing. Well, first of all, Big Cat, no. He didn't say bad pizza top.
Starting point is 01:10:24 He just said bad topping. Your brain was just focused on pizza the whole time. I did gummy bears. Here's the thing. What Hank has done is with his appetizer draft, he's reset the conversation. So now, all his other drafts will be viewed in light of that.
Starting point is 01:10:37 Like, that was such a bad monument to bad drafting. I would just like to say to everyone out there that's hit me up in private and on DMs that were like, hey, man, I've always felt the same way as you, but I never wanted to publicly say it. Thank you for being the voice of the voiceless. You're welcome. And don't let these bullies like Big Cat and PFT
Starting point is 01:10:56 and all these people online tell you that your taste is trash. In a weird way, Hank, you are winning Mount Flushmore season because you are so bad at it that is the true essence of Mount Flushmore. You are on the Mount Flushmore of Mount Rushmore's. Right. You're doing like in a meta way, the idea of Mount Flushmore has come up with the worst
Starting point is 01:11:14 answers, and you're doing that. I just don't pander. Sorry. OK, but you kind of are, because you're pandering to like, the truth, the truth, the truth. I speak truth to power. You don't even pander to your own brain. No, that's exactly.
Starting point is 01:11:26 That's the only person I pander to. All right, go ahead. You go first. Me. So Mount Flushmore of Fears. It's yes. So it's the stupidest fears we have that everyone knows it shouldn't be a fear,
Starting point is 01:11:38 but you have it, and you think about it, and it's just dumb. OK, this was an easy one for me first overall. Taking a shower in a thunderstorm. Hate doing it. Somewhere along the lines, I was told that you'll get electrocuted if you do it. I don't think that's true at all. I think that there's probably no safer place
Starting point is 01:11:54 to be during a thunderstorm or a tornado than your bathroom. OK. So don't take my word for that, by the way. So I can't be held legally responsible if you get electrocuted. But yeah, that's easy number one for me overall. OK, that's a good one. Mine is similar in the bathroom since I am always afraid
Starting point is 01:12:12 that I will get robbed, or there will be some type of emergency while taking a shit. And just like having a robber come into my house with just shit everywhere, what do you do? Die. There's no good options. Do you just pull up your pants? Imagine mid shit and someone comes in and is like,
Starting point is 01:12:29 give me all your money. What do you do? It's just, I don't even want to think about it. All right, Hank, your first two. My first one is being in a viral video of musicians on the subway where they're like, you know, we took a classically trained musician, and we had him play on the subway, and then it's all just the videos of people walking by.
Starting point is 01:12:50 So every time I see a musician on the subway, I'll just stand there for at least like 30 seconds, just so like I'm not one of the people in the video where it's like, look at you, dude, like this guy wrote Beethoven and you just walk right by. You just walked by Paul McCartney playing on his piano. Yeah, he's wearing like some sort of weird mask. He's playing like, that's a good one.
Starting point is 01:13:08 So I'll just stand there for like 30 seconds and be like, that's good. Don't stop it. Don't patronize me. That's a really good thing. All my pics are good pics. All my pics are good pics. I thought about that, too.
Starting point is 01:13:18 You don't want to be the guy that's in the meme where it's like, look at our generation and then it's you walking past like an artist and look at their generation and it's everyone storming the beach of Normandy. Yes. My second one is getting pants. Oh, good one. Good one.
Starting point is 01:13:33 That's an old school. There's nothing funny though. No ass. Yeah, no ass. So it's like, I feel like I'm a prime target if you're a panther. The wind could pull down your pants. Getting pants and having your pants and your me undies go down, all time funniest things.
Starting point is 01:13:49 When there's just someone's dick is flopping out there. A lot of dicks in Game of Thrones though. No one told me about that. Yeah, oh yeah. I just watched the shame episode. Big time, big time. Oh, because you texted us a while ago, like when did Cersei cut her hair?
Starting point is 01:14:02 Yeah, I knew it was coming. All right, my next one is very irrational, but I spit a lot. I spit on the street. I dip. I spit. I'm always afraid or not always afraid, but I am have it in the back of my head
Starting point is 01:14:18 that someone will be able to use my spit and frame me for a murder. I'm just spitting my DNA everywhere. Someone's going to basically catch it and be like, we got him now. Boom. Also hair follicles, blood, semen, all that stuff. Semen's a big one for me.
Starting point is 01:14:33 Dude, someone's going to frame you at some point. Got to be careful. Got to be careful. You got to stop spitting, stop shaking hands, and stop nutting. I know that that's stupid, but I'm always afraid that that's going to happen. I actually used to think that the government collected all of our shit every time we flushed it,
Starting point is 01:14:49 so they always had that, all the info that they did. Actually, you know what? I'm going to get back on that. Now that I said it out loud again, I'm convinced. All right, what's your next? My next one, two. I'm afraid of tripping over an open dishwasher, like in Garden State.
Starting point is 01:15:07 Yeah, yep. That's how the mom died. Yeah, she dies. The whole movie is based around a mom falling over a dishwasher and hitting her head. I never seen that movie, so that's a dumb one. Great movie. Had a great soundtrack.
Starting point is 01:15:20 You don't like the shins? I like the shins. Is that an ironic thing? No, I like the shins. No, they had the band, we got the shins, and the movie where she tripped and dies. I think she tripped backwards. Yeah, I think.
Starting point is 01:15:29 I don't know, actually. They never showed the shins. It's good coffee drinking music. I'll put it that way. Yeah, but I'm always afraid of that. All right, that's a good one. And then, man. Excuse me?
Starting point is 01:15:39 It's a one. It is a fear. Yes. Oh, man. OK, my next one. When was the last time you washed dishes, Hank? Every night. I usually do it in the morning.
Starting point is 01:15:50 I pile them up at night, and I'm like, I'm going to do this tomorrow, and then in the morning. All right, let's dive in these dishes. You strike me as a Chinette guy. I don't even know what that means. It's a thick paper plates that you can use. They're real good. They're actually really classy.
Starting point is 01:16:03 No, I actually have an amazing dishwasher, which is like the most dad thing ever, but it's my favorite, like appliance in my house. There you go, Hank. Loading up my dishwasher gets me pumped. Coffee and dishwasher. No, you're the coffee guy. No, I know.
Starting point is 01:16:13 Together, we're just a team. My next one is going to be biting down on aluminum foil. Whenever I have a Nestle crunch bar or something like that, something that comes wrapped in aluminum foil, I'm convinced that when I'm eating, I can't even look at aluminum foil while I'm chewing something. Yeah, that's a good one.
Starting point is 01:16:29 That is a good one. All right, my next one, I don't. This one's going to be bad to even say out loud, but if we're doing it, we might as well say it. You know how when you see a police officer in line at like a Starbucks or something and you're like, what would happen if I just grabbed the gun? I'm always afraid that someday I'm just going to grab the gun.
Starting point is 01:16:50 Not do anything with it, but I'm just going to grab the gun. They'd be like, got your gun. It's because it's the impulse effect in your body at some point is like, what's going to happen? Am I going to just do it? Yeah, since we're new kids, we've been told like never touch a gun. That gets my adrenaline going just talking about it.
Starting point is 01:17:07 Never touch a police officer. Right. And it's a combination. You see it there. You've been told all your life not to do something. It almost makes you want to do it more. Right. And at some point, you're just going to be like, fuck it.
Starting point is 01:17:16 Let's just do it. And again, I would literally just drop it right away. But just to do it and just be like, I did it. That is a fear of mine. There's an old saying that people aren't afraid of heights. They're just afraid that we're going to jump. Right. Like when you see something like it's the last thing that you
Starting point is 01:17:29 should do. Yeah. But you are afraid of like these weird impulse. Yeah, the impulse like, oh, I'm jumping. All right. That's a good one. Thanks, Hank. My next one will be getting crushed by an elevator door.
Starting point is 01:17:40 Yep. I don't trust those things at all. Elevators in general. My great-grandfather died in an elevator. Really? Oh, yeah. Fell on his head. Oh, wow.
Starting point is 01:17:48 Was he an elevator operator? RIP. I don't know how he got in there. It's one of those things, though. There's really, I hope so. People go into elevator door holdings with no fear. Yeah. It'll be closing and they'll just stick their arm right
Starting point is 01:17:59 in there, assuming that it's going to open. And if it doesn't, your arm is off. Your arm crunches. That actually, Hank, is 100% this guy, because you do do the really quick. Like, you get really scared. I've seen you do it. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:18:14 Where you get super scared about an elevator door. Yeah. I just man it up. Yeah. I treat it as an alpha situation. Like, it's mono-e-mono here, door. You ever live in an apartment building where you know you've got a heavy elevator door?
Starting point is 01:18:27 Yeah. That's tough. I'm in one of those right now. And humans put a lot of faith into those weird little sensors that you assume every elevator has. Yes. Yes. When did those begin?
Starting point is 01:18:37 When was the first time that they installed those? And then how long after that did it take humans to be like, oh, I can open any door just by putting my pinky in there? Yeah. It is. We've gotten a little bit cavalier with it. All right, your last pick, Hank. There's been a good Mount Flushingmore, everyone.
Starting point is 01:18:54 All my Flushingmores are good. I mean, that's not a fear. A fear of losing. It should be. Getting kicked by a subway dancer. That's a good one, too. That viral video, the kid? Well, and I used to live in Brooklyn.
Starting point is 01:19:11 And I lived in between the stop from Manhattan in between Brooklyn where subway dancers will basically ride because it's a long Manhattan to Brooklyn. There's a long 10-minute ride where they'll get on and then get off and go the other way. So I was always, every single day, I would see the dancers. And every day, I'd be like, these guys are really like, I'm sitting here, and I'm not going to move.
Starting point is 01:19:32 And then they get so close where it's like, why wouldn't I get kicked? Of course, I'm going to be the guy in the viral video. I'm just going to be minding my business to get smoked. For people who don't know the New York City subway dancers, they basically are a combo of a gymnast and a stripper. They do the whole thing, and then they do the fucking high beam. And they're just going back and forth, whipping around, going upside down, all kinds of shit.
Starting point is 01:19:56 It doesn't matter if it's crowded either. There's no space. It's those guys and the hat guys. You can get really good at dancing with a hat. They're one and the same. Yes. All right, my last pick is a little confusing, but it's something that I do think about fairly often.
Starting point is 01:20:13 I'm afraid that this entire world, like us sitting here right now, is just an imagination of one huge species that's just sitting on a spaceship floating away. You think we're in the matrix right now. Every now and then, I'm like, we're definitely in the matrix, and none of this is real. None of it. I'd say the last year has been very strong evidence.
Starting point is 01:20:37 Right. But that's a scary thing to think about. Like we just wake up and we're like, oh, we're not real. That would suck. Sucks so bad. Don't have to pay your bookie. I don't know. Maybe I do.
Starting point is 01:20:49 Maybe in the matrix realm, it's all bookies. Maybe the creator is just a bookie, and he just made the world. So that everybody would be in debt for him. Yeah, that would suck when JJ Watt knocked on your door. All right, your last one, PFT. My last one is, this is going to sound really stupid, too. But getting my fingernail caught on a piece of foam.
Starting point is 01:21:14 What do you mean? Like if you drag your fingernail across. Like a chalkboard? No, like a piece of foam. Like if it's a foam ball, or if it's like the fuzzy part of Velcro, do you know what I'm saying? Yeah, yeah, yeah. And you drag like your finger across it,
Starting point is 01:21:28 maybe you have an uneven nail, and you get your fingernail caught on that for just a sec. And just thinking about that, I don't know, it makes me shrivels me up. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That sound, that feeling. Hank, you want to grade it? F.
Starting point is 01:21:41 Why is it an F? It's a stupid fear. It is a stupid fear. There you go. Very stupid fear. Do we have any? Hank's fears have been too good to be stupid. Do you have any?
Starting point is 01:21:50 Do we have any others? Any others? Driving with a car light on? Yeah. I have planes. Oh, whoa, planes. I have the jetway collapsing as soon as you step off. Like you're just fucking falling.
Starting point is 01:22:02 I always think that's going to happen. Do you guys ever hear the urban legend that there's Black Widow spiders and grapes? No, I didn't have that on my list of spiders crawling in my mouth when I sleep. Yeah, that one's a big one. I don't have a basement, but if I did have a basement, I 100% would be.
Starting point is 01:22:20 This is more like a real fear than an irrational fear of ghosts catching you as you go up the stairs and the lights are off. Like just ghosts in basements, you know? Yeah, I mean, spiders are a real big in basements too. Yeah, but ghosts more than anything. Quicksand. Quicksand has been glorified and I'm just afraid of it.
Starting point is 01:22:38 Like who's to say the same I'm stepping on isn't Quicksand. That's another thing where people have cartoon brain. Right. They're taught to hate Quicksand and anchovies. Yep, let's see, what else did I have? That was it. Did you guys have any others? Overtime playoff hockey.
Starting point is 01:22:52 Mm, that was good. Even when I love it, I hate it. Yep, yep, that one's good. That one's good. Anything else Hank? You had a great list. I always do. It was almost too good though,
Starting point is 01:23:02 because these are supposed to be really bad fears. I think Hank did a great job. I actually, I would say that Hank won this Mount Flashmore. Oh, thanks guys. There you go, you're welcome. Let's see, we'll see everyone Friday night. Friday morning, Thursday night, Friday morning. We got draft recap coming on Friday.
