You're listening to Giraffe King's Network. These side marios all you can eat is all you can munch a soup, salad, and garlic This is the Dunlabor Tarshall with this Tougat's podcast! A listener writes in curiously, haven't seen this addressed yet anywhere I need answers so I can search for footage. Why is the word AS spray painted on the background behind Dan? You don't get this show. Do more of that please. I want more ass in the background.

Hell yeah. Stugato, I don't know the rapper Jelly Roll. He looks like a rapper named Jelly Roll. You think I do? No, I'm just using you as a transition to get to a speech. What was this, the Country Music Awards? What was this?

Yeah, Jelly Roll is a country music superstar and that his brand of hip hop is centered in that genre and is an inspiring story. He's become a huge headlining act. He's headlining a festival locally, I think in a couple of months, He's become a huge headlining act. He's headlining a festival locally, I think, in a couple of months. He's become a huge sensation. And he won an award at the CMAs and delivered

a really inspirational speech. And I want you guys to listen to it and hear your take away. Nice, Bill. I only got a second, and I'm going to say a lot, lot and I'm sorry but the quickest I can say is thank you to the label Stoney Creek Management John Loba Joe Jamie you saved my life country radio what's up Danny? I got a thousand people to thank you but most importantly my lord and my wife I love you so much you You changed my life, baby. I love you so much. You changed my life, baby.

Megan Parker, Haley, I love all y'all with friends. And Zach Bryan, I think you were one of the hottest things on Earth, not just country. Music, you deserve this as much as anybody else. I love you. I'm glad we're sitting there partying the rest of the night, baby. But most importantly, there is something poetic

about a 39-year-old man winning new artists of the year. I don't know where you're at in your life or what you're going through, but I want to tell you to keep going, baby. I want to tell you success is only the other side, I want to tell you it's going to be okay. I want to tell you that the wind's sand is going to the rampage in the North region. Because what's in front of you is so much more important than what's behind you. Last party, Nancy! That sounded like a Sunday morning sermon.

I sounded like Dusty Rhodes' hard times, bro, no, no, no, no. Good goosebumps. The back window's pretty big in the car. I cracked it right out if I needed to with my own way. Let's wear the hammer. You don't need to, just wait for the pressure to eat. Exactly, just open the door. A couple of cool stories that came from the CMAs.

I don't know if you guys saw the CMAs. I'm going to have to go back to with my own way. With my own order of hand, you don't need to just wait for the press release. Exactly, just open the door. A couple of cool stories that came from the CMAs. I don't know if you guys saw the CMAs. Do you know who won Song of the Year? It's a Songwriter's award. How would I be? Wait, what, go ahead, say it on the mic.

How would I know? It's country music. Tracy Chapman. Oh, yes, that's right. Tracy, yes. So you didn't know. No, I've got spade, come on. That's right. Yes. Tracy, yes. So you didn't know. No, I've jacked. B, come on.

That's right. Tracy Chapman won. Do you know what song she won for? No. Fast car. Oh, the same one. Yeah, because songs can chart back in. And we now have representative data of the times

that we're in. It's how running up that hill after Shranger Things becomes a massive smash becomes one of the songs of that year because it's charting. And so you have, it's why Mariah Carey is back in our lives and probably gonna get another one record, the same one that she gets every year. It's a really cool story. But Luke Holmes version is the reason it won.

But who wrote the song? No, I know that. Technically she wins that award. But we're in a really cool unprecedented time when it comes to music because this, the cell phone that you hold in your hand, is giving you accurate data. And if you look at the charts when someone drops an album, you'd have the lead single maybe chart, and then the second single comes out three months later, and then that would chart.

Now you look at the top 10, if it's a week to Drake drops an album, he's got eight of the top 10. It's a week the Drake drops an album, he's got eight of the top 10. It's a crazy time and you have to kind of put an asterisk on some of this stuff. It's kind of pre-imposed merger. When you talk about how Drake has as many number ones as the Beatles, because the Beatles did it in a very conventional way. If the Beatles dropped their entire catalog all at once, they'd have like 75 of the top 100, but it's a really fascinating

time. Roy, I want to examine what just happened, where you went off mic like you're a professional broadcaster. You've been doing this with us for two decades. Off mic, you said you had no interest in the country music awards. We forced you to come to the microphone where you then said you had no knowledge whatsoever of the country music awards. Then you heard the one bit of information

that Mike Ryan gave on the country music awards and you exclaimed, oh, I knew that. Now, as a professor, I said, oh, I forgot about that. That is what I said, verbatim. Oh, can it write that? I've also made it one time you knew it. Yeah, and I've forgotten you had to know it.

The whole country music, man. It's and I forget it. You have to know it. Yeah, the whole... No, it's touching music, man. It's the whole, how am I supposed to know when in your defense, you're claiming that you knew? That is, that is... No, I forgot, I forgot, which meant I didn't know anyone. We're playing this again. It's a matrix. We're playing this a matrix.

We're going in circles. We're going in circles. At one point, maybe last week, you knew. Yes. My point is that Mike time around here is precious. Yes, the point is just in general, I want to examine the professional incompetence in what it is that we're doing here,

where it is something- He said harsh, man. He forgot something. Well, yes, but he forgot that he was just- He was just mis- He was just mis- He was just mis- He was just mis- He was just mis- He was just mis- He was just mis- He was just mis- He was just mis- He was just mis- He was just mis- He was just mis- He was just mis- He was just mis- He was just mis- He was just mis- He was just mis- He was just mis- He was just mis- He was just mis- He was just mis- He was just mis- He was just mis- He was just mis- He was just mis- He was just mis- He was just mis- He was just mis- He was just mis- He was just mis- He was just mis- He was just mis- He was just mis- He was just mis- He was just mis- He was just mis- He was just mis- He was just mis- He was just mis- He was just mis- He was just mis- He was just mis- He was just mis- He was just mis- He was just mis- He was just mis- He was just mis and then he was wrong. I was dismissive of the whole genre of country music. Two Americans. Exactly. If I may.

You may. You were dismissive. I must point out that Tracey is black. Yes, I know. How's it two Americans? No, the entire genre right now is two Americans. That's why I'm in. He forgot.

Terri's rocker performance. Terri's rocker does. So that's very few black people in the country. When's the next post game show? It's a no, no, no, on the road right now. So we're going to wait until the next home game. After loudly proclaiming that you knew nothing about country music and have no interest in country music. It was then revealed by the only person who would have this information that you did indeed.

You outed yourself. You. No, I'm just forgetful. That's all I have. I'm getting old. I'm sorry. But Roy, why don't you dismiss it? You can't come back and go, oh, yeah, you just got to dismiss it.

Roy, go set it ever happen. Go. No, I'm just got to dismiss it Roy go never happened Just get out of here You cannot get out of here long enough If if you'd like to leave and not return till Wednesday, I'd be fine with that I'm off on my wire you still here It's hard for me to explain how bad that was. I don't want to hear your arguments off Mike anymore. I mean, he forgot something.

I'm a bad look. It's a bad look. I'm not saying it's not. He's the only one with the information that can keep tabs on himself. And if you forget, clerically, then just don't say anything. Don't say it off-mic, don't say it on-mic. Don't give me your opinion that you have no opinions,

but that one opinion is the one that you had. And then when they ask you about Darius Rockert, that's also an opinion, yeah. Well, the opinion was that it was who cares, and then it quickly became, oh, I care, I forgot. Right, right. One of the things that I want to reveal to the audience to get, so there are a couple of things here that I just want them to pay attention to.

Okay, and Kane Brown is part black. It's just a monster country music artist. Over the weekends to got, and I have told you this before, one point Disney was no, I had no interest in getting into what they viewed as cock fighting. What John McCain was calling cock fighting, which was mixed martial arts. A partnership with mixed martial arts was viewed as too dirty to be something that Disney would get involved with. This is when John Skipper was running the company. Wouldn't even take meetings with Dana White. Wouldn't be seen next to the octagon

because Dana White wanted to use powerful people to get the deals that he wants to get so he can run the sewer business over there that is the fighting sports. Over the weekend Dana White, because Disney is wokes to got and Florida Disney is to woke Dana White in partnership with Disney goes to the fights with Trump and Kid Rock and Tucker Carlson as Bill Burz, wife, Nea, double middle fingers. He went, he went to the fight. So who?

Oh, let me paint the picture for you. I was there in the building, the, the Mecca, greatest, you know, stadium in the world or whatever they call it. That New York has been very, very successful. New York has been very successful for, uh, you have seen the last few weeks, but I, I want to show people here the choices made during the pandemic when Disney started bleeding money and stuff. You've gone into partnership with a production company that produces its own material.

I cannot explain to you how much power Dana White has over everything that he's executing both at ESPN and in a sport where Vince McMahon just cashed out, 30% of his stock and got $700 million for 30% of his ownership of this, this, this fusing of businesses that has been Dana White and Vince McMahon. And they, in the case of Dana White can now use Disney as a tool because he's got so much power over this. And Disney, which is too woke, it's Tucker Carlson, it's Kid Rock, and it's Donald Trump.

That's like the white supremacy Avengers. You just rattle off. So here's the thing, like right before, so the main card starts at 10 o'clock, and that's where the paper view kicks in. The lights go dark, they do their usual song and dance, and then all the sudden the lights turn on, you hear American badass, and then all the sudden

you know who's coming out. Trump gets on the screen, kid rocks behind him, Tucker Carlson's behind him, Danes in an all black suit, and they're walking out of the tunnels to mix reviews, some people are cheering, some people are not. But it's just an incredible scene,

where you know it's gonna happen, you're like, oh my God, I can't wait. There it is, just an explosion. It's crazy. It is an amazing power move by a guy who can survive, slapping his wife and public and is in such deeply embedded partnership with ESPN that ESPN doesn't say anything about it

because he's got all the power. Well, rock and ESPN do, though, Dan. If they were to say something about it, what are they gonna say? It's Disney, it's like Disney. I know, but they made a deal with Dana White and with the UFC and Dana White chooses to walk into the fights with who he chooses to walk into the fights with. But you're pretty, you got out of politics pretty good.

You got out of politics after George Floyd, after sending corporate statements that were, you know, suggested that you weren't going to be in this business. And now you are, whether you want to or not suggested that you weren't going to be in this business. And now you are, whether you want to or not, because you can't control his production company because he runs the whole thing and he can flout it in your face with Disney's backing. And I'm just, I'm just showing you what shifted there. You can care to ignore it if you want. It might not be interesting to you, but it's a choice.

It's a money choice that's been made. And I will tell you again that in Florida, Disney's allegedly to woke. In Florida, Disney's on the wrong side of politics, but here they are in bed with the person who's governing the sewer and the sewer disposes of these athletes in a way that profits him a great deal and also control job politically, publicly with Disney's backing. Don LeBotard. Why are you guys blurting out safety names?

It's a best game ever. A little while ago we were talking about an artullard and now I think we're just playing a game in this studio where we're just naming safeties. Yeah, kind of like the 90s baseball player game. Like a couple of minutes ago, I just blurted out Brock Marion. Great work. And it made a few people happy. Yep. Two guts Bob Sanders.

Yeah, you know, he was early in the list. Classic. Very cathartic. Yeah. Adam Archelletta. Not a good safety. No, but a great name in a name. He had a run name alone. Sounds like he should be better. Adam was a good safety for a few years.

Did someone say Brock Marion? Yeah, that's where this was a gambit. Listen, I'm struggling with memories. I get older. This is the Don Limita Show with this two cats. The The The The The The The The The

The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The

The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The The the The The The The The The The by very vocal voices on the right. A lot of people with not nice things to say. A lot of people discussing or tact,

which I find really funny, because I've been to plenty of sporting events where there's a f**king Joe Biden chant at, right? But this, but this is apparently too crass, too crass, it to shoot middle fingers at the president and I am deeply confused by that. And also, not as confused as a lot of people who are Bill Burfans, because Bill Burfans,

and I recently saw a bunch of nine line shirts over at the Bill Bur show that was in Hollywood. He has become kind of this voice that's held up. His most recent movie, Old Dad's talks about like this PC culture and you know, he does a lot of stuff that I guess people on the right identify with, not knowing that he has very liberal views, I guess,

and has been pretty public about this stuff, but they choose to see what they want to see. So they're having difficulty reconciling a person that has been held up by the right as someone like that's our guy with his wife giving President Trump double-middle fingers. Guys, Bill Burz never been on your side. He's a white guy from Boston. That's where it ends, really. Like, he voted for Nader one time.

I guess you could hold that up, but Bill Burr's never been your voice, but I do find it odd in being so offended by this when you've sold t-shirts and you have your chance. And sometimes you say directly to the sitting president that this is too crass. Isn't this the snowflake offense that you constantly label people on the left with i'd like to get to the lighter matter here that i was trying to get to because uh... i know that many people don't want this with their sports and we are in an

awfully but the people that don't want it with their sports and are the same people that are cheering down on trump when he shows up to the u fc like it they don't want it with their sports stand are the same people that are cheering Donald Trump when he shows up to the UFC Like they don't want it with their sports when it's convenient. I understand but the the inconsistency of these things is Something that you will play whack-a-mole No, no, the rest of time and you will never win. You'll just exhaust yourself. I'm trying to make some Hey, I'm good with it. I'm no snowflake I'm good with it. I'm not so consistent.

I'm not so flake. Like, you do what you want at these sporting events, free country and all. I just find it weird. You were pointing at me for some reason. I was just in general. I was doing whack-a-mole on. You cannot touch your arms.

We will descend further and further into a conversation about inconsistencies and hypocrisies that will simply ignore that this is the best thing to happen to Kid Rock's career in a very long time. He is being rewarded somehow for machine gunning a bunch of butt lights and that's the time that we're living in. And if you just told me this in the 90s,

I would have been very confused. But that's the grift right now. There's no actual cancel culture. It's a myth. In fact, if you bump up against what is conventional political correctness, there's a great, great pot of gold waiting for you. In fact, conservatives have kind of revived stand up comedy.

You say that cancel culture is a myth. What's not a myth is shooting up beer cans at Bud Light did alter the way that corporations are afraid of summoning a kid rock from the 90s to shoot up their product when they want to sit this stuff out. I'm, I keep looking at the corporations and telling people, when do you have enough money that you can stand for stuff and it can just be Ben and Jerry's like really stand for stuff. Not everybody put out the statements after George Floyd. And then we got back to business. Like we got back to the stuff corrected itself and it's like it didn't happen.

It's like there were protests in the streets a few years ago. And then everyone, everyone shook and everyone was bothered by, you know, this month, this streaming service is gonna give you black history month, movies for free, because that's how we're gonna deal with George Floyd. And then we got back to business. And the reason I just pointed out to you is just too marvel that in 2023, so it's got to legitimately marvel at it. There is a lane for, I'm going to be all powerful counter culture white guy

who answers to no one and I'm going to win at the fighting sport. I'm going, this is a man who signed in an alley of Foxon's extension that saved his sport. The Fatita brothers Stugatz have made so much money off of everything this is which is controlling the fighters and using them, paying them, abhorrently throwing them in the body machine mill and then making money that helps Disney and helps him and Vince McMahon get rich while he's drunkenly playing at blackjack tables stack chips Stack rotesquely high because he can Speaking at the Republican National Convention and now arming a fan base of

I mean these are knuckle draggers that I have fought for a long times to guys because I haven't respected the mixed martial arts and up This undercurrent of this is the safe space for our people and we're going to cater to it and we're gonna become more and more powerful, all powerful, where he's running the ability to produce what ESPN is putting on its airwaves to got very few people have that power. You're angry about it, but at this point, can we be surprised by it?

That he's allowed to do it. There's a lane for people to make a lot of money. I'm not, you know what? I'm not, the part that I'm angry about is not that he does it, Stugots. It's the part that makes me angry is, hey, people, do you see what's happening here? Like, you see how obvious this is? Is it, is it not so obvious? You can't see it?

It sounds like you're angry that it's happening though. That's cool because I am. No, but I'm not. I don't like it. It should be, I don't like it because I don't like Donald Trump. So that's why I don't like it. And also there's a double standard that I called out earlier, but what bothers me is that it's Donald Trump. That's why I don't like it. And also there's a double standard that I called out earlier, but, you know,

but what bothers me is had it sound a trump. The part that bothers me is how obvious of a troll job it is in that photo, look at Dana White's face on that and look at Tucker Carlson's face on that. And if you can see. He's very pleased with himself. Yes. Yep. When they were all walking out,

the three of them, Dana smiling there, but they were trying to be cool and then you had just Tucker behind them like, cheesy, just like high-fiving people. It was a weird thing. This for them can feel like Chris Bosch.

You remember when Chris Bosch, Dwayne Wade and LeBron came up on the stage for the first time? When they turned around, you saw on Chris Bosch's face a surprise like, holy shit, I'm famous. Like, he got the energy of it's surprise that Dwayne and LeBron tried to be cool about it. And when they turned around, couldn't be, but Bosch dissolved entirely. That's Tucker Carlson.

That's Tucker Carlson. Yeah. Well, they've high five for you. He's the Carlson. That's Tucker. Yeah. Yeah. High five for you. High five for you. He's a boss. Anytime someone gets churned by the PC machine and cancel culture, they find their allies and they revel in it. And it's how something like Russell Brand happens, where they just go deeper and deeper and deeper until people have convinced themselves that everyone's making up lies and accusations

to shut this freedom fighter up. It's not easy to be unpopular. It's why I'm on an island with Victor Wemba Niyama trying to save our great game of basketball. No podnala, but when you walk out to the octagon side, because I've sat octagon side, when you walk out and there's 20,000 people just cheering, it's not even for you, but it feels like everybody's looking at you.

It's a crazy feeling. Oh, it's a gladiator spectacle. Like it's, it must be wonderful to anybody who's in the middle of it. But if we're going to be in a new age, I prefer the way Stephen A Smith is using the platform. Really, not just Stephen A Smith. Both Stephen A, look, I've got a giant smile

on my face because it really tickles me that both Stephen A Smith and Shannon Sharp are now using their platforms as dating apps because Shannon, Shannon Sharp has got a new power to God's. He is, he's broken away from skip bailess and left him in the dust because he's got an assortment of properties that are popular and because he is out here mingling he is in the mix for let's see who it is that wants to date Shannon Sharp and because Stephen Aismith is competitive and everything he does not want Shannon Sharp to have any of the things that he too himself would like to have. At hunch, OJT underscore, rights, thoughts on Latina women. I love them.

I love me as Spanish-speaking women. I really, really, really do. I love it. That ain't all you got to have. You ain't got to have it,. I really, really, really do. I love it. And that ain't all you got to have. You ain't got to have it. But I mean, it is a plus of bilingual women's, specifically Spanish. Whisper in your ear.

It's a beautiful thing. It's a beautiful thing. I will acknowledge that. So no shade on a Latino women. What's so ever, let me throw that out there. Oh, God. what are we doing? What happened, Chris Coding? That just made me want to cover my face.

Why? That was just, I don't need the sexual, I don't need the sexual delivery. Just tell me like, no. Cover your face with what? You needed to be sensual and sultry. This is, we were talking about this last week. You, I was looking at all of you guys when I said,

so you guys feel sexy all the time, huh? Because I generally don't feel sexy, not a feeling that I experience very often, but I looked at all of you and you're like, yep, we're maximum sexy. Steven A. Smith, I assure you, Steven A. Smith thinks he is maximum sexy. I love when he like, in the voice,

like realized he might have stepped in, he's like, I love when they have, they don't have to have that, but I do like that. He likes him, he likes, why are you? What do you think he's talking about? The word poppy. He likes, that's what he likes. He likes a whispered poppy.

That's not man-distant, I do love it. We are an agreement on that, that it's just a whispered poppy the word Poppy you need sometimes Dana maybe the word I in front of it But if you are lacking in that one thing perhaps visit Florida Center for Cosmetic Surgery just one look is worth a thousand words I want him to be around all the time I want to take him home with me and just hang around with complicated legacy, Josie Gackett. And it doesn't seem like it's that hard of an

impersonation. He just got to it first. I don't think I'm ready for complicated legacy, sensual, Jos Jose Gackett. What, how do his tastes run? You know, I'm a big supporter of the conventional family dynamic. I've gotten away from that. A lot of fatherless homes. I can get into it, but first, Bill Sidel's gonna save you.

I'm not sure. I'm not sure. I'm not sure. I'm not sure. I'm not sure. I love the idea of the parents being home and the kid comes home from work and where he's coming home from is giant practice. I don't know. There's something about it that's just, it's cool, it's unique and I'm glad he put it out there because a lot of people are mocking him. It's not an easy thing to put out there. Still living with your parents.

Also, Tommy DeVito, you want to be a good quarterback in the sleigh? You got to make your own damn bed. Put it on the pole, please, Jude. You at Lebitard showed Tommy DeVito, you want to be a good quarterback in this league. You got to make your own damn bed. Put it on the pole, please, Jude, you at Levitard show Tommy DeVito, you want to be a good quarterback in this league, you got to make your own damn bed. I do believe a lot of people were judging it. I do believe that people will say, generally speaking, as an absolute, you cannot be a successful professional quarterback in the NFL.

He's not. He's not. If you are still living at home and your mother is making your bed, you have to grow up slightly more than that. And I say that, by the way, I should point out to people, this is a real thing that happened. Bernie Khozar in his 50s, I saw this in his kitchen. He was cutting a long, a French bread baguette. He was doing it with a saw from his garage because no one had taught him anything other than how to be a quarterback. He didn't know how to do his bills,

he didn't know how to do shit. All he knew how to do was be a quarterback. And so the more people that are helping you in that regard, making your bed and other things, allow you to concentrate only on being a quarterback. It's kind of a full-time consuming job. Hold on a second. There's a difference between,

I don't know what knife to use from a knife, said to cut bread and I'm using a saw from a garage. Like that has nothing to do with being a quarterback. At a certain point it's like, are you okay? Fair enough, my point is just illustrate that I physically saw it and I knew that that man had learned nothing in life. Is it possible Tommy DeFito knows, hey,

I'm not long for this gig of NFL quarterback. No, that's exactly what it is. That is what I can now. He's making $44,000 a week and he has no idea when it's going to disappear. And it's probably going to disappear sooner than he'd like. So he's living with mom and dad and he's saving a ton of money as he should. And they're making his bed. By the way, if you get a bed, make sure you get it from mattress giant.

Who are? Chris Cody, if you found the Austin Burke. I have slogan yet. If you get a bed make sure you you get it from mattress giant Chris Cody if you found the Austin Burke I have slogan yet are you keep look? Custom made suits. I don't think they have one. It's like the only thing I'm seeing on multiple things only at mattress giant We have heard 20 years worth of Austin Burke commercials one of us must remember at some point what the hell that guy was shouting at us through his Slobber. The Josie such a Did you Eric it's only did you guys notice yesterday? I don't know if the rest of you saw this because I I had a reaction that made me feel like in the movie, the Matrix, where you see the second black cat making appearance in the first half of Josh Dobbs,

the magical Josh Dobbs. In the first half, he targeted TJ Hawkinson by my count 10 times for like 128 yards. And there were also 10 plays where I thought Hawkinson's own foot was in his right ear. The beating that that man took, getting those catches so the Josh dobs could be heroic. I kept seeing him folded over with his own foot on his forehead inside his helmet. He was getting bent all sorts of ways and I'm like, surely this man is not going to keep coming into this game.

And surely he did made a Frankenstein part and I'm like that man is going to feel so horrible on Monday. And so great because the entire Vikings offense because the Saints defense is rugged and cruel and mean and they hit viciously. He got folded up like an accordion five different times. In the first half and I'm like, what are his stats? Are they throwing to anybody else? No.

He was targeted 16 times. The Vikings five and oh without Justin Jefferson. Amazing. Otis seem in the league. Crazy. People have been pointing out that unders and prime time games. I think it's like seven and 24, something like that. And the reason for this is the networks aren't flexing out ofetime games. I think it's like seven and 24, something like that.

And the reason for this is the networks aren't flexing out of bad games. We've had the jets on multiple primetime games. And we're gonna have Vikings Broncos. Surely a week ago, you're looking at the schedule and saying, well, here comes our flex. First flex of the year, but the Josh Dobb story is something so magnetic.

People are drawn to it. He's on his 13 just this year alone. And they're a playoffs. That they're going to make a superstar out of his story come next Sunday night. When I saw Hawkes to do the wounded soldier climb, you know, when you get down on the floor and you're kind of like doing one of these moves, after the third time I saw him do it, I was like, all right, they got to get him out of the game. We got to throw the flag here.

This can't continue to happen. Speaking here. This can't continue to happen. Speaking of things that can't continue to happen, I don't know if any of you think about this at all, but in college and professional football, if it hasn't been said by somebody before, allow me to be the first. Go ahead and eradicate the kickoff. Go ahead.

What are we doing? We're wasting everybody's time. The same way we do with that Michigan Penn State game every year? We're wasting everybody's time. The same way we do with that Michigan Penn State game every year, we're wasting everybody's time with the kickoffs. Why are we still doing that? Why are we still watching people every? I saw that Washington has allowed zero return yards this year because they just kick the ball through the end so every time. Like why not? Don't risk the concussions. Don't make anybody run down for any collision on any play. Why are we doing it? When's the last time that you saw some in college football there, they break away on the on the kicks, but you

don't see that in professional football anymore. It's gone. Has there been a kickoff return for a touchdown this year that anyone can remember? I think there was like a really short one that was housed. Like there was an on-side kick attempt that was housed. And people would ask, well, then how do you do an on-side kick to get the ball back? You could do like the XFL rule, where you go like fourth and 15. I mean, it's outlived the choosefulness.

Has it not? They were six last year. Six kickoff returns for touchdowns last year. That's pretty dumb. You got to keep that thing around. You do? Yeah. I just call.

I just call him. I just call Dawson Burke and they don't even know they're slogan. Did you tell them Josie's entry? Call again. The person I talked to was like, you have to go back tomorrow. Call again and say, tomorrow. Why tomorrow? Call again.

Say Josie and Dawson sent me. Somebody picked up a landline at a telephone number that you've... First, I was like, hey, you guys, these commercials you guys used to do. What was your slogan? And they're like, hold on. And someone else answered. And they're like, I don't know, call back tomorrow.

So Dan, there was a thousand, thirteen kickoffs last year in the NFL. Sixth will return for touchdowns. I don't think anybody, I don't think anybody would need one. I can't need one. I don't think anybody would miss it. If you're going to do it this way, I'm going to miss it, but I'm done missing it. Don't do it this way.

Every, every kick is gonna go through the, through the end zone and nobody's gonna return. There he is. You're not celebrating how player safety initiatives are working in this league. I'm, it is working. They just want to see people run a full speed into one another. More car accident. No, he wants them to go away.

Only 20% of kickoffs are even attempted to be returned. I don't like when I'm deaked out by the punt returner or the kick returner who's like getting themselves in a position where it seems like they're gonna take up. Braxton Barrier is just like almost every game where he goes and he's like, oh, he has like a crazy like outfielder

feedin' like all this guy's revving up he's about to take out and then last me, and then he just, fair catch. My favorite play is the decoy, kind of like a Max Johnson, the decoy punt returner that goes to the opposite side of the field, pretends to return it and the balls in the air. They're just chasing the one guy.

Which is meanwhile, old Kirby Dardar on the other side. Hold Kirby Dardar. I believe that he had an Austin Burke deal when he was. There's no way. I think he also got injured on the xfl run for the ball with full circle here some some people have written in a question that I think is a good one because I saw some video of Nolan Ryan at 76 years old wearing

khaki pants throwing out the first pitch at an honorary baseball game. And not surprisingly, Nolan Ryan, who threw a hundred miles an hour, 20 or 30 years before anyone else could do it. Not surprisingly, Nolan Ryan at 76 years old still throws the ball very hard. And a few people asked us, if we think the shipping container

can foul a ball off of Nolan Ryan, a foul a ball off of 76 year old Nolan Ryan. Now Chris Cody, who once singled to right field off of Matt Lato's in a high school game, he believes that he can hit anybody. So he is undaunted by cacky wearing 76 year old Nolan Ryan. Is it 76 miles an hour or is he 76 years old Nolan Ryan is he is it 76 miles an hour or is he 76 you 76 76 so we don't know how fast he's throwing well he was 63 at the time of the video he threw 85 by the way it was Terry Kirby you had the Austin Burke deal thank you it was not Kirby Dar Dar it was Terry Kirby I think he's so tough and he chased down Steve white

do you know I confer like two years, I got angry calls from Terry Kirby. Hey, we're Steve's number. I don't know though, that ball looks like it. The one we just put up there, look like it had some movement on it. I mean, I'm gonna try, I'm not gonna be overly intimidated because he's not throwing 100 anymore, but I'll give it a whirl.

But I think Nolan Ryan, if he saw you in the box, would all of a sudden be throwing 100 anymore. And at me, probably. I think Nolan Ryan would brush you in the box would all of a sudden be throwing a hundred anymore and at me probably I think no, Ryan would brush you off the plate and I just I do think that's that's not him humming it in there. That's an honorary first pitch. Oh he's trying to. No, he's grooving it. Did you see that leg kick? He could get all of his ass in there though. He wants to show though that he's still got it right there. Well, he did have it back then. I don't believe. I don't believe that we can get a hit off of a 76 year old Nolan.

That is a very old video. That's the old ballpark in Arlington. Yeah, we can go Yardo. Drop a button. Yardo. Wobble, Bobble. Hopping a button is like more difficult than just having a button.

Lost her. He's throwing a flat. He's 78 or whatever. He's breaking his finger. No, you got to hold it the right way just a little bit a little daity yeah down the line kind of catch the ball with a bat just broke that left pinky finger of yours
