You just keep feeling like Fridays Really? Today feels like a Friday?

A lot of them do for me, man. We got a remote looming tomorrow where we've got to drive a million miles, so today is not feel like a Friday to me. I know we got stuff to do tomorrow. I got stuff to do tonight. We grind every day, am I correct?

You're talking about yesterday, yeah. No days off. So do we have something to do Saturday? We do. We have something to do Sunday. Oh, I am so horny for the stream Sunday. Cowboys v. Washington commanders. What are you going to call them?

The commies. Is there a tiny buzz? Oh, that's not in my ear anymore. Way to take it out. Was it me? I don't know. Yes? No?

I don't think so. You're muted. It's gone now. It's gone now. It was, oh, now it's gone. All right. Anyway. Got to play with it.

Get a little buzz. Get a little buzz going. So, leading statement guy. And we don't have a lot of time for dicking around today. We got stuff to do. We got these picks. We got viewer mail. We got Matt Brunig.

We have a sit-in here. Nico. So right away, not excited that there's a dude in here named Nico. Just calling by his last name. What is that? Pizzarillo. I'm sure you've gotten that a lot. For real?

Yeah. Oh, yeah. Pizorello. Doesn't he look like that? Terrible time to be named Nico. Yeah. Yeah. You might have been the only Nico I knew before Nico.

I don't recall knowing anyone named that growing up, but I have known this guy a while. Does Nico look different than the last time you saw him? Because he just told me he went to Game Day Men's Sank. health and got the 10% off TRT. It's not just that he looks different. He just feels different. There was an aura and energy. But yeah, he also looks jacked.

Yeah. Gameday.dumzone.com. It's a small leading statement. I got a concert tonight. One of the few shows I will still go see. The band Turnstile. And I am going with... Is that the one with the lead singer who in the 90s?

No, this is a concert where you go get beat up at. Yes, but the answer, Dan, you're probably specifically speaking of the band brand new, but there are many. It turns out that when I was 14 to 19 and going to see these bands of 27 to 30-year-olds, they were fucking all of the 13 and 14-year-olds. Well, they were all raised on... No way. They were all raised on music that was indicating that that should be your desire. I know. And I feel like I've been raised on a culture that that moves away from that. That's one of our greatest accomplishments as a generation. But no, this is a band. They're young. They're young guys. But they're, they sound like stuff we grew up listening to. And I've never been to a show as violent or as active in my life. Even back in the heyday. It's insane. Like, you've got guys, people coming out of the floor just busted, bleeding. Like, it's just a, it's a massive mosh pit.

There's constantly people jumping off the stage. We need you tomorrow. It is a, it is a battle in there. He's going to be sore tomorrow. Yeah, and so me, our good friend Chris Spinks, Jorts, Jordan Richardson. Oh, my. Blind Joss. We'll just kind of pass him around in the pit.

This is like your parents-in-law. All of you can't go to that concert. And we'll all be dead. We can't lose all four. Sam Anderson, our good friend from Quaker City. He probably chills more than the machine. The big man will be in the pain. Maybe y'all could take your own then.

But here's the great thing about it, Dan. Not only, I think we'll be the oldest people there by a wide margin. But that pays benefits because it's an all-ages show, and it's at Panther Island Pavilion, which is outside. So this baby will be wrapped by 9 o'clock. The doors are at like 5.30 or 5. That sounds great. I'm pulling up at 7.15 after soccer and I'll be out of there

hour and a half at the most. You know, or you told me, because I'm considering going to a 3 o'clock comedy show this weekend. Turns out I will be there, I will be there as well. Nate Bargansi is doing a 3 o'clock show, and I'm like, what? 3 o'clock. Bro. Where? The AAC, which he had to add.

add a third show. He's doing Friday night and Saturday night. He sold out Oklahoma City. Yeah. Excellent. So I may or may not go to that, but I'm leaning heavily towards it because if you're going to start making stuff at 3 o'clock, I'll just do everything.

Dude, there's, I mean, Jerry Seinfeld, of course. Jerry Seinfeld's great evidence of this. But if you can be funny, and like Nate Bargotsie is a guy who will speak at your church, but his act's not about that. But if you can be funny and be clean, a kingdom of riches for you. Because, like, most of the church crowd, they're not going to see Chappelle.

Yakov Smirnoff has proven that the... The funny part doesn't really matter. The morning comedy show can work. Is Dude Perfect opening or what? There's a lot of Nate Bargatsy crossover with Dude Perfect, unfortunately. It just is what it is. You okay? If I hit it, I can get the buzz out.

It's a little open palm. Only in your ears, if that matters. Oh, really? Okay, good. Then I don't actually care about it. A little bit of a slap. There's always somebody talking in my head. We're heading into a busy stretch.

I just wanted to look at this calendar for a moment. The lender. Mm-mm. No? No way, sirree. But the dumb zone. These no day off things, we're not kidding anymore. Just want you to feel for us

So yeah, tomorrow we're going to somewhere called Potsboro, Texas Where the hell is that? I just know it's within 100 miles. It's like 69 miles, but it is an hour and 15. It's up there. That's all right.

Minutes. That's book on tape. That's called dad. It's Texas. If you're anywhere in Texas, we'll come to your house. Right? No.

Texas is pretty small. Nope. Let's see. The guy. Saturday, perhaps an afternoon comedy show. I'm trying to get up earlier. Game stream Sunday. Can I keep going, okay?

What? Because I just realized I've got an even gnarlier scene here. What do you got? You know me, man. Is this a pre-ken check? After the stream Sunday night, I'm going to Fort Worth to go see James McDonald, the guy who opened for Shane when he was here, the Australian guy. What are you doing?

after the stream? Oh, James McCann. James McCann, sorry. Yeah, the Black Israelite special. He's very, very funny. And, you know, T.C. was like, you want to try it? After we get Donna Dan's, I'm like, you bet your buns. Okay.

You are grabbing life by the box. Then next week, we're doing three shows in Dallas. Two at our Game Day Men's Health Studio, where we are today. Powerpack, too. Thursday morning, I've talked to Matt Grimm. And although you guys did say, hey, we'll leave whenever you want, I know what that really means. I know you're passive-aggressively saying, you know, let's leave her. So I gave Matt Grimm a 6 a.m. leave time.

What do you think of that? 6 a.m. We couldn't believe it, folks. We couldn't believe. Because I figure we'll actually get taken off at 630. The commitment. Yeah, but if you said 7, it would have been 7.30, right? So the commitment, the sacrifice, it's what old is this thing to do?

Can I just spend the night if we're going to leave that early? You can absolutely spend the night. Don't be him. You can sleep in my bed. You quarter him. Why are we letting so early? Because it's a long drive. If you want to leave later, I'm happy to as well.

Geez, I thought I was adhering to the. I'm trying to adhere to the group and like, okay, I'll leave when you guys want to. And that's a 12-hour drive. Dude. You lose an hour, so we're going to get in... Here's the thing. Dan, stop. I feel bad for you right now, and you shouldn't have to be explaining yourself. Well, no, but I'm going to say, in calculating this, I'd kind of rather get to our Airbnb

a little earlier. Why don't I have to be there early? So that we can be fresh and ready for a Friday show. Because, like, I realize you like to just roll in. Oh, you asked for that. I want to prep a little bit for the show. You asked for that. But, no, we all have 12 hours of prep time.

I've planned on so many things, too. I'll read this book then. Oh, my God. I'm going to cut this audio. I'm going to make these calls. Oh, my God. So many things we're going to do in this 12-hour trip. I have a million things planned along with a haines from you.

Yeah. Well, I'm going to be tired. I'll be down to your feet, Hunter Biden style. Apparently, we have to get to Denver so Dan can eat dinner at 530 and be in bed by 730. again I'll leave at 9 I would prefer that then I could just relax around the house

do whatever I do in the morning No let's do what Dan wants You're really An unnecessary fly If we leave like at 7 to 8 We're going to be in the heart of DFW traffic Getting out of here But if we leave at 6

We're going to arrive in Denver Because you lose an hour around 5 and we're going to be in the heart of Denver traffic getting there. Who cares about any of this? We're going on a trip together. Anyway, so I'm just trying to map out our trip as much as I do. What are we talking about? I'm not even going to sleep.

We're leaving. Leave it any time. Yeah, the Decatur and the Allsubs and Decatur. You could put me in a Conestoga and tell me we were going on, and I'm fine. I don't even know what that is. Like a covered wagon trail style, and I'm like, this is a great trip. Because I'm with you guys. I'm getting ahead of this.

I'm bringing my sticks. I figured you were. Yeah. I mean... Are we going to have enough room? Because I was actually thinking I'm going to bring the big suitcase because I can get my pillow and my blanket. Yeah, Grimm's bringing his sticks. But listen, dude.

I need room for some Arrowhead water on the way back to. While it was funny... We're going to get a water sponsor. Kat's bit of hating golf was funny, but actually making guys feel bad for doing it. Much like making people feel bad if they didn't come to work, if they were. were sick is a gay bit. It is a tool of the capital. I want to hang out all day Saturday and get some fellowship and get to know you a little

better. Well, then I have an entire day planned for you. We will be at Red Rocks at 5 p.m. I mean, Blake. I don't know. I know you well. We've got several listeners we're meeting up with on Saturday. I know you awesome.

Are you going to Red Rocks? Guess what? No. Okay. I wasn't planning on it, but I will, maybe. You know, I like last second. Like, you guys want to plan everything four weeks in advance. When you were talking about Stavi day of, I'm like, you know what?

I want to go. This is the worst. I went and I found a ticket real cheap and I was sitting right in front of the guy. It was the best thing I ever did. And you're like, I got to buy a cowboy tickets now. They're only $800 each. My dad, my dad meets a black guy at his gym. He wanted to buy cowboy tickets for like $500.

He doesn't know how much NFL games cost. I told T.C. last night, I bet you wait till that morning you can walk right in there. Dude. I've been to Browns games where you can do. Yeah. T.C. and I were talking about this last night, going over the weekend prices. And it's, Dan lives in a different world. And he was also like, why would you would have spent that much money on a game? I'm like, you don't like going to games. I love it. I love it. Like, Soroy left the game Saturday. There's too many people at these games.

Soroy left Texas OU Saturday. I want to be shirtless in the Oklahoma State section where they're two guys a bit. He left the game at half and said, I'm never doing anything again. My dad and I stayed to the end. We were there for 11 hours, and I loved it. It's what I like to do. Go to football. Did you guys sing Texas rows of Texas or whatever you do at the end?

There was one minute left. That's when he's like concourse. But no. More on that later is we cover the tortilla gate. Okay, so then we're going to Denver. We're broadcasting. I updated the... We're going to insane clown posse. I thought you were doing that

tonight. No. No, tonight's turns You're a jerk. What's the difference? We don't need to hear, we don't need to do young gircy. You said he's going to get beat up. Young gravy, young geezie again. The clowns beat you up? I thought that was very interesting.

I thought it'd be funny if we had Blake dress up as a juggalo to go to ICP. Like a little cute clown. Hey, guys. We wouldn't see him again. Like Keefe from Jim Stone's type thing. This shirt is not as long as you think it is, bud. You remind me of Keefe. That's what I'm saying.

Yeah. That's cool. I like Keefe. It's on our events page at dumbzone.com, but we're broadcasting from a place called dive in, la dive in. Rave reviews, dude. Their manager Jason tells me they have ping pong tables. Oh, a ping pong show.

If you're interested, maybe the Cowboys will swing by. Now, if you want to leave somewhere late, I'd probably predict or rather have the Tuesday we have to leave from Denver. But I know Matt Grimm on the road is a complete, But he's going to be very passive-aggressive with trying to get me to leave at two in the morning so he can get back and have sex with the trucker. I know his game. One would hope.

Yeah, and then we have a show Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and then another game stream is going to be for Monday Night Football Cardinals. Look at all this stuff we're doing. Then we're going to be on Steve Noviello's show. When does it all end, guys? December 22nd That's right Is that when the Cowboys will be eliminated from the playoffs?

Well, no, I mean, I think at that point Shottie will have been fired for three or four weeks, right? On y'all's timeline? Three. We're tentative of planning a 12-hour show that day. When? December 22nd. Put it in your Palm Pilot.

Content and commerce. All right, let's get to some sports, Dan, and I think it should be probably brought to you. by one-day doors and closets. Our old friends back. The holidays are approaching. Just make that a drop. Rapidly approaching.

I'm going to start every spot with that for the next two and a half months. Absolutely. But maybe you have people you're looking to entertain. You've got family coming in, and they're all, this house sucks. Why don't you clean more? Replace your doors.

Do the new door thing and then just see if they know why it looks so great. It's like you get a little new haircut. Do you guys remodel this whole place? What's different about you? Do you gut it? Do you flip this? Yeah. And you're like, no, I just replaced all my doors.

And I did it with one day doors and closets. One Day, Texas.com slash promo 30. That is the deal that they have running for you to buy one, get two doors. Oh, sweet. Yeah. Bogo. Yeah. So they don't have some guy there like eyeballing it and then putting his thumb up and closing one eye.

Right. He doesn't bring in his. They have advanced 3D measuring technology to make a digital blueprint of your frames. Then they custom cut the doors right there on site to fit those frames. It's very cool. As opposed to going to a big box store. You're also going to save money as opposed to a big box store. So yeah, maybe you do this for your house.

Maybe it's something that you give someone as a gift. Say, hey, I heard about this company. I think you'd love it in your home. Oh, the holidays are approaching. Rapidly. I forgot. One Day, Texas.com, slash promo. to buy one door and get two doors.

One of them will be free. Right. One day, Texas.com. They could just say it's a half price sale. 30. Right? A couple different things we want to get to here. I'm obsessed with George Pickens.

You know what he feels like to me? Like when the Mavericks got Kyrie, not when they got Luca. Because I just had never seen a player like that in a Maverick uniform before. I, you know, Luca's, I'm not saying it's just a race thing, but it's like the way they play. Your scotting report heading into it was. Very similar. Very, very similar. Like, I don't know what to make of this guy.

And that may still be in there somewhere. You know, blow up another room? Like, I think Kyrie is fully a different person, age-wise, also is a big part of it. Pickens is still young. I mean, if you can't be coached by, you know, a legend like Mike Tomlin or Mike Brown, like, who can coach you? Shottie So Shottie

Speaking of Shottie Had a funny quote When I asked about GP The other day Give us a drop Well let's make sure This will work Blake

He seems like he's playing full of joy He loves football I would put him up against Anybody in this league About how much he loves football How are you going to track that Wow How are you going to track that

I'm going to go to Wikipedia And he doesn't always love Wednesdays And Thursdays But he works his ass off on the practice field. He loves being on the grass. And, you know, I love the energy and juicy brings to our football team. It is infectious. And I would never say receivers are unstoppable, but damn, he's pretty good. So obviously, we're loving. If this thing blows up, they will go back and listen to all these shoddies, be like, all these times when he's like,

maybe he's late to meetings. Yeah, it's not the first time. It's all fun when things are going great. Sure. But I love H. The way. shot he talks there's a bit of a code switchy but he also just he's a football he's been around football his whole life he thinks he's cool that's just ask him just ask him yeah and uh that little part in there i just anybody in this league about how much he loves football and uh he doesn't always love wednesdays and thursdays oh yes queen that's film study right I'm super excited about seeing Pickens and CD out there together. I know they can't play defense, but, you know, who is the best defense might be a good offense?

Who's the best wide receiver two the Cowboys have had in your lifetime? C.D. Lamb. Under who? Amari? Yeah. Yeah. Or Amari. Yeah, both those guys, whoever was one and two, right?

So that was maybe for two years of full. And before that, it was like Terrence Williams. Now, you always had Witten. But Alvin Harper was a good player who is storied in Cowboys. But you didn't go back through that. Right. You wouldn't go to another team and all of a sudden he's dominating too. Right.

Or you lose Irvin and now it's Alvin Harper's time to take over for three or four games. I'm not saying he never made plays, but this is a different level here. And it just, when you have DAC, I think it's virtually unstoppable. But we know that. I have a shoddy slash. Pickens thing. It's really more shoddy, but I was listening to the press conference today.

And there was a question about George Pickens, but then Shottie, like, took it and ran with it in the way that Shottie does. And anytime I listen to these now, I'm imagining what would Mike Tomlin say, if you remember his... Yeah, it's a...

Kurt, one more... And even in listening to this press conference, the yesterday press conference, you know, Calvin Walkins will read off all the injured players and then he'll say whether they're back or not like that's just what Mike Tomlin does in the beginning of his con so he doesn't

have to be asked but shot he's a relationship guy just ask him anyway Joe Joe White Dallas morning is George Pickin seemingly has a handshake with everyone does he have a handshake with you what do you think of course yeah we we

not only of course what a great question somehow in here is that Nick somehow Joe Hoyt okay somehow in here we're going to have shooting baskets or hoops or something you know i try to keep up with these guys on their handshakes but they're really confusing and they go fast so no um i think they probably feel like i'm a lost hope when it comes to like the dab tap and this and that and they do all those things uh so i kind of leave that to them but uh my daughter and i have one that's kind of cool

you think that's cool i think it's cool to have one i don't think it's cool to tell anybody i mean Right. Yeah, I do a lot of gay stuff at home that I am not... I won't share it with you guys, but... That's another... That he loves to do that. Dude... Wasn't going to follow up. I got to watch that now because that's a constant theme is he has different things he will say,

but then I won't share that with you. Like, we've got this huge scheme the way we're going to attack the pant. Not going to tell you, though. Yeah, we may have changed our cadence. Not going to tell you about it. I won't tell you guys about that. I won't share it with you guys, but I'll start with that. maybe, you know, get one with my wife and then trending toward,

Guyton asked me to do one, and I messed it up. And so you're like, no, we're not doing any more, Shottie. I'm like, okay. So I think a few of them have tried, and I haven't handled it very well. So the point there is one second, Mike Tomlin, one second. Bill Belichick, like, stare, just not even, there wouldn't even be a syllable. Shottie can give you 40 seconds on the handshake. Yeah, that's, he's.

He's thorough, he's intentional, and he answered that question to the best of his ability. A couple of the shoddy quick hits while we're here. I'm not a coach that talks a lot about, okay, here's Dan Quinn, and here's Cliff Kingsbury, and Joe Witt, and I don't go into all that stuff. Why? Wow, that was a big one. That was one of the best we've ever had. Was asked about, oh, well, you'll hear the question here by John Machota. This would be your first 325 game.

You probably have to navigate through some sun there. How much are you looking forward to that? Well, you know, I've been here for a little while, and I've heard about it. Acky sniff, cocky sniff there. You know, hey, look, we really do. Pause it. I heard about the sun. Hey, can I stop you real quick there, Shottie?

What were you doing? The first year I was a consultant. Okay, well, how much did the sun factor into your day-to-day on game day there? Well, not really at all. I was a consultant. All right, after that, you were the offensive coordinator. So you're telling me that you had a lot of decisions to make regarding the sun when you were calling the plays. No, you wouldn't call them.

I wasn't actually calling the plays either. Okay. Well, then in what way has this been an issue for you at all? I've heard about it. You know, hey, look, we really do. I mean, you know, if you guys could see the process and plan that we have in place to figure it out. I mean, we have satellite imaging. We have pictures of the sun when it's coming down.

So there's a big plan. the process, but I think when you look historically of what's happened, it really hasn't affected many situations. Hey, hey, get down here, dude. Dak is waiting on the third down sun images. We have satellite imaging. What are you? This is NASA, bitch.

I have 3D satellite imaging. I'm marking this. When Dak can't see somebody throws a pick and it's a big deal and it's only talking about it. Because it happens every time. It's not their fault. This is the same thing that we're doing in every walk of life. We're blaming the wrong people. The people with the money decided they wanted that window there and they wanted it open. Now we're blaming the ground troops because they got a dick with it. Well, what if the

people with the money are listening to this? We've got to say it's not a big deal. And we plan for it. The opponents plan for it. But at the end of the day, it's something that we're aware of. And it's very beautiful. It's majestic almost when the sun comes through there. It really is. If they have a play ruined by the sun, I'm going to go down there and ask them a question. Hey, I thought your satellite imaging you saw what the sun looked like that didn't affect your game today? And now...

We've got satellites. I will give you the worst question of the day. Babe. Babe Lofmer, I was Radio Network, 1053 of the fan. You may not even be aware of this, but tomorrow's your birthday. Your birthday always follows in thought. Babe Lofenberg, professional comedian. Yeah, where is he this one?

And you're probably... What's the question? We're not there yet, but you're probably not aware of it. I mean, the way you grind, bro. The way you just are on that film, you don't even know. You don't know day to day what day it is, but I'll tell you. Your birthday always falls in football season for most of your life. You've been doing football.

Do you do anything at all? Does that day mean anything to you? You get anything from home? Not really. First of all, let me just ask. Who cares? Like this is a joke when we say Jake takes his birthday off or his wife's birthday off or something Because you're an adult

You are not eight You are not Brooks You are not Carter or whatever Why would you care? You have to be There's really no football season There's no way to take this Oh I can't just go out to

Texas Roadhouse And sit on the thing with the hat and have them sing. There's no way to say this that it doesn't sound like a shot, but I'm not surprised that Babe really likes birthdays. We'll have a little celebration, I'm sure,

this weekend, get a bunch of family coming in town for this game, as we always do, because I'm a big family guy. Yeah, we know. No, not really. But on the flip side, I get out of jail free card when it's my wife's birthday in November

because it's football season. And so, well, no, I use my mom, my mother-in-law, my sister-in-law. They kind of go out and thank you, Joy. Joy, we need to be thinking about this wherever you are because she's going to want something really nice this year. Yeah, because I got a raise. Yeah. Won't tell you guys about what it is because it's actually the lowest paid head coach in the NFL, but.

But, no, I mean, it's honestly, you know, it's, I celebrate everybody's birthday. I announce it to the team. Boy, I bet you, dude, dude. Yes, does any of this surprise you right here? I bet you do. I celebrate everybody's birthday. I announce it to the team. We had a couple birthdays a day.

Actually, Jerry's was Monday, Will McLeigh. So imagine, like, us doing this. Like, you know what? I'm going to celebrate your birthday. Hey, everybody. Blake's birthday. Hey. Oh, dude.

Big year for you. You had a great year. What do you have planned this year? Say a little something. You know, we're just busy with work. So, you know. Yeah. Yeah, man.

He's grinding all the time, man. I don't know if you guys knew that. You know, Will Britt, one of our. guys here. Okay, I think he's going to tell you everybody's birthday. He knows everyone's birthday. The other thing he knows how to do is call the offense that's first in the NFL and everything. How do you play both sides of this?

It's fun, isn't it? How do you mock him and praise him at the same time? It is good. It is good work. I don't always love Wednesdays, Thursdays, Thursdays. Yeah, man, I'm super fired up. Let us know when we have the boys. Well, right now we can at least mention that fairlease.org

Oh, no doubt. Could be a place for you to go buy a vehicle. Where do you have to go? You don't really have to go anywhere. Where are you? Where are you are right now? That's the dealership. Yeah.

They're affiliated with the Texas Credit Union. That means that working with Fairleast, that goes back into our local community, schools, and charities. and the upshot of this is they will do this as Dan said right there online you don't have to go anywhere there is no dealership they'll deliver the car to you uh you got a car to sell they'll buy it whether you decide to buy a car or lease a car from them or not so if you got an upside down lease they'll help you get out of that uh perhaps you're in the commercial game you're looking for a fleet they can help you like they did our friends at community mechanical save money doing it that way with fair lease the website is fair

Fairlease.org, you can select the click or click request a quote and then select the dumb zone. That's us. On the how did you hear about us page. That part's important. Fairlease.org. Tell them the dumb zone sent you. Okay. Well, let's fire it up then.

Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, children of all ages. It is time. For D's Picks. Yes, indeed. It is time to pick some games with our podcasting friends. Cirque du Soroy. Joining us now, we see Mike Soroy. and Danny Bayliss from that particular program

and apparently Cash still a little bent out of shape from last week when we pointed out that his audio was not picture perfect he abruptly hung up and then he's still not here he's refusing to come on the show he's holding out he's pissed I've never seen him this mad he went to Cabo to train

while he holds out is Cass showing up today yeah he's here man he's in Q man Oh, well, I don't see him on the screen. I can only assume he's pissed, seething. He was mad at you guys. Yeah, anytime I've...

You guys, there's no you guys here. He was so mad that he did what he said was anything to win in the Rivian Cornhole front trunk cornhole challenge. He did cheat. Right, you brought that up. He did cheat. and you know he didn't cheat and I'm glad you brought it up

because you know I'm glad that we agreed before the Rivian Challenge that in the unlikely event that there is a Picks D's Picks tie in the end that the Rivian challenge

was the tiebreakers so I'm just really excited I don't know that I gave you power of attorney to do that you did I heard it were you guys actually discussing that plays yeah sure i will admit we thought of that caveat after we emerged victorious by god's sweet grace but we're down so much and i think you guys probably would have agreed why not make it

the tiebreaker sure you know yeah i'll give it to you beforehand and actually can we agree now they didn't cheat at cornhole unless just being born a sororoy is cheating no i'm joking about that because the way i the way i went into it was like when i would play basketball with my six-year-old daughter, you know, oh, I'll guard you. And she makes a shot. I'm like, oh, my gosh, I can't believe you won. Yeah. But that's what I was doing, too.

Congrats, guys. What the hell? We had Vince Young watching. We had Jason White watching. You did. How would you treat that as anything other than a massive event? Hey, pressure. Bust the pipe over here.

And then did you enjoy the football game? You went to the football game afterwards, Mike Soroy. Did you enjoy your time there? So did Danny. Yeah. It was one of the worst days since I moved to DFW at 25 years ago. Why? I hated it.

Why? You're out there, the fans and having some beers with orange one side. Front trunk? It was too hot. No, I like the Rivian part. I really did. I enjoyed all that. We had some shade.

We were chilling. But once you get into that sea of 100,000 people and it's nuts and butt, and I'm not joking, it's probably the hottest football game. I've ever been to. We were on the side that just got destroyed by the sun all day and the aluminum and no win and then I look at Danny and we're like, we really don't give a shit who wins this

game? Dan, you probably don't know. What point of the game? Minutes and quarter on the clock, you think Danny and I decided to go ahead depart a Red River rivalry. Well, I would guess during mid-third, maybe. Probably during halftime.

Because if you're really hot and it's 20 minutes, and you're going to watch like a band or whatever they got out there like I don't want to watch this but it was still close really close okay so you're saying mid third yeah maybe mid third let's see if if mater can get it together here still a tight contest expensive tickets so maybe mid third if not at least the turn of the quarter heading into four so what do we got Danny I believe Oklahoma kicked a field goal with four minutes and 24 seconds remaining on the clock in the second quarter Oh, before half time. Mikey looked at me and goes, let's go. And I said, I'm with you. I watched the entire fourth quarter from the comfort of my couch. God, what happened to my guys?

Were you sitting there like, this is the best idea I've ever had. Yes. There's no doubt. Your nuts were cool. Uh-huh. Because that was the thing, dude. It looked like I pissed myself by the end of the day on the, on the, bleachers you sit down hot enough all day it just looks like you peed your pants like

were you on the east or west side i don't know the diff like i don't know but i know that i facing the sun so i was in the end zone with oh you so i never got shade though so i was closer to that yeah it was hot and it was getting we were in a spot where it was getting worse as the day went yeah you're on the south end zone because i don't know anything about anything so i asked my dad i'm like is this going to get better and he had a moment where he was like fuck you're a failure, dude. How did I not at least teach you where the sun moves? And he was like, nah, bud, it's going to get a lot hotter. It's a tough one. I'm perplexed myself going to park like the same place I go almost, you know, every couple days, the gym or whatever. It's like,

where's the sun going now? Like, where should I park? This side of the tree or this side? You'd think I'd learn. Yeah. Hey, uh. I'm so dumb. Every time that comes up, I literally in my head say Asia the land of the rising sun the far east like I have to go through that whole sentence then you got to figure out where east is well I just know sets west that's the only way I know is that look we're set in west but uh payoff idea do you guys see the goalie at the stars game yeah apparently he's done it a couple times I'm not exactly sure the bit um if you didn't see it it's a guy dressed in full goalie gear like with goalie stick blocker the whole thing and he's sitting in a mid seat like he's sitting not at the glass and not all the way

at the top like he's in the he's got to deal with about 30 rows of stairs he's got to slide by decide if he wants to go front or back of hockey pants so I don't know that we could just straight jack that but we were kicking around like going to a state title game like the big one this year at AT&T, Ted Emmerich's on the call, and it's three of you in full football uniform. Or is it better to do the full hockey uniform at a football game? That would also. Because it's just way more confusing. Yeah, I don't know if you need three goalies, but three hockey.

What about hockey uniform to dinner? Like you guys wanted to do dinner with a blow-up doll. Yeah, let's keep all these ideas together. You take a real doll, a blow-up doll to the state title game. So you're sitting with the parents. wearing hockey gear Yeah With a bee

With bees all over Instead of a hockey helmet You have a bee helmet For 24 hours With an inflatable woman Right And every time a bee stings you You can take an hour off the

The town Inside the Waterburger Yes But I don't know I think trying to get on TV Would be funny Like if there's a local bowl game That kind of sucks

just have three guys dressed as like the 90s pit Philadelphia flyers in the crowd. I think that'd be funny. So let's keep adding. I like hockey at the high school game. That's good. You mentioned hockey jerseys. We had this one on the table of cash for a CERT bet payoff. And mind you, neither of us have ever skateboarded.

But the loser would have to wear a full, like Dallas Star is like protective outfit and drop into the ramp at a skate park. jump into the half pipe dude I remember that was like the big step and it is a you're never going to you're going to fall right on your face

you just fall flat over there's no drop in yeah that that is Mike Ribeiro it's pretty good it's pretty good now what are the standings don't worry about that

so Jake doesn't know that he is in first place. Look at all that green. When it comes to our individuals. Jake, last week, went 5 and 5. It's just missing that triple play, man. I know.

All the triple play. Anyway, you are, so how many games have we picked? 60 games. You have 37 correct. Followed by Mike Soroy at 34. Then me at 32. 25 wins for Danny Bayless. 22 for Blake 22 and 38

Blake What are we doing? I'll tell you what he's doing right now is he's wearing a hockey mask full of bees Based on relegation And Cash Soroy is below Blake 21 and 39 And yes The standings did not move when it comes to

Dumb Zone versus Cirque Still an 11 game gap at I'm staring at it all weekend though I'm watching it I know going down oh man it's only eight games now

and then yeah Blake and I both two pregame penalties by not even turning in our U&T picks oh that's right just horrible teammates a lot of work to do

what do you think you would have picked I would have picked I would have picked South Florida I promise you South Florida I've been in enough of those North Texas games where this is where the program turns

and they get blown I don't know why South Florida's on TV so much and maybe that's just me that feels like that, but I see them on TV a lot, and that is a big factor, and do I pick you? That's probably a good. And they have a team that just runs people over. I mean, U&T is a good story,

but that was not a big spread. Very disappointing, you guys, because you guys are the ones that talked me into doing Friday Night Games. I said, don't put them on there. But... Just like leaving early, bud. You can't win for losing. No.

But here we are. So we can do some picks. Let us mention, what do you want to mention? Oh, let's just plug Lone Star Beer, Lone Star Beer, Lone Star Light. You know, when we do the game watching parties, we always have Lone Star Beer and Lone Star Light. And they sell merch. They do. I'm a big fan of the merch.

They always have new collections dropping. They've got a poncho collab. They've got a bunch of stuff that you need to check out at Lone Star. Is it Lonesar beer.com? I just know the promo code is DumbZone 21, 21% off merch. You know, Danny, the holidays are rapidly approaching. That's right. Buy your loved one, a lone star beer.

Give gifts, you know. A 12-pack would be nice. What about a five-pack? Like, you drink one. And then you give her a... Yeah, who would ever do that? Lonestarbeard.com. promo code is DumbZone 21.

Get you some merch, man. And also, if you go to... any of a fill-in-the-blank number of taco joint locations in DFW, you mentioned the Cirque de Soroy boys, and you get a free queso. That's right. Chips and queso. I don't care about it. It's not our advertiser.

What are we doing here? I don't care about CERCTA-Souroy. Here's what I care about. People getting free Taco Joint Caso. It's a public service. I know, but we've got enough spots today, and now all of a sudden we're going to do Soroy spots, too. Again, the promo code is Cirque de Soroy at Taco Joint.

dot com for a free are you guys owe us a Lone Star Beer plug yeah it's only fair yeah we love Lone Star beer delicious let's see here real quick

you guys dressed as medieval nights and went to a hockey game that's the funniest effing thing maybe of all time what about isn't that the one like get out of here yeah we didn't just go to a hockey game were you guys in the stands

I know you were in the press like the which is way worse Yeah, no, we went in the stands, and then I went in the locker room. I knew that, which is obviously a level of... Picked out immediately by Barry Trots, who... I remember watching, like, a documentary on HBO. Was that what it was? It used to do 24 or 7 with hockey.

Yeah, like following them during the season, and Barry Trots was like one of the biggest red asses in hockey. So funny. So imagine me and Groobes walking into... To talk to Gretzky? After like a loss. No, no, Gretzky wasn't around, I don't think. Oh, that was...

No, dude, I didn't get past Barry Trots. Okay, because I... He came charging over to us, like, what is this? What is it? Two years later... And, like, I remember it was like Stretch's first day as... Oh, God. That is so...

And, uh, as media guy, and I was going to walk in, uh, to the coach's press conference. He's like, not, just don't do, please, don't do today. Please, Dan. And I go, okay. Please. A couple years later, the back of the stars press pass. said all sorts of stuff, including not allowed dressing as medieval nights and entering the visiting locker.

Yeah. They added stipulations. So who's up first? Well, anyway, you know who's up first because we pick from first to worse. So what we have to do here on the air and off the air, we will publish these things at various places like Twitter and whatnot. Maybe even on our website. Do we have D's picks up on the website? Yeah, we do.

All right. So go to dumbzone.com or to Taco Joint. I don't know, whatever you want them to do, Jake. But on the air, you have to pick the cowboy game. It is Washington, Pat, at the Cowboys, Washington favored by a point in a half. The disrespect that they have for Shottie. And all those dinners they had in the preseason? You think Dan Quinn's having dinner with players?

if he does it's just raw steak birthday cakes yeah shoddies and uh and your triple play whatever your triple play is and I'd like to say well I'll do this on my pick then because I want to play a little game

and see if anybody jumps uh but Jake you get to go first because you are first I bet he does bring little cakes like it's Tyler guidance everybody got him a bun tini uh what's in the ball what's in the box

nothing Bunk cake Burt cake Yeah I am not going to triple play the Cowboys for two reasons The one I mentioned last week It feels like it signals

Give Up in the segment But also confidence Certainly waning Not gone I still have them as a playoff team I think that I think that they can I think this will be the best

defensive performance of the year. How about that? Because Jane Daniels struggles against zone. This may be the one time where their inability to change up the game plan works in their favor. So I will take the Cowboys

but without a triple play. I do like the idea of taking Arkansas on the points. How many is it, Blake? Seven and a half. Arkansas hosting Texas A&M. And it feels like Texas A&M is good, but not as good as, like, ranked 6th.

They will give up runs on you. A&M has trouble stopping the run, and Arkansas only does one thing, run the ball. Bobby Petrino is Arkansas coach somehow, Dan. You have it at 8 on here. Oh, really? Okay. Is that what you want? I don't know if we're going with todays or last nights or whatever.

Yeah, whatever the spreadsheet. Have we been tracking the return of Bobby Petrino? Wait, where is he? He's the head coach at Arkansas again. Wow. They fired Tits McGee in the middle of the season. Sam Pittman. Bobby Petrie.

He was the O.C. as of last year, and they have now elevated him back. We got to replay that audio sometime. Support our coach. That was great. But I'm not taking that. I am going to continue to ride. with my Trojans. USC.

Jared told us ain't played nobody. They lost by two to Illinois. They beat the shit out of Michigan last week. They are for real and they are getting nine and a half at home.

No, on the road against Notre Dame. Best corner in the entire country, best receiver in the entire country. Matchup on matchup. I love it. But nine and a half points. Give me the Trojans all day.

every day for my triple-truple play. This is what I'm going to play when I make my triples now. Nothing bad can happen. It can only good happen. Okay. Hey, Jake. Yeah. Hey, Jake. Great pick.

Thanks, bud. I love it. Even from the seller, I'll take it. He's going to come around. So Mike Soroy is up next, but I want to just throw this out there and play a game I like to call. Are you a pussy? Whoa. Do we have an open?

We do not. Let me get on that real quick. Okay. Because I was going to propose. It's very rare that we would ever have this opportunity when we see two guys matched up very close in the standings and their childhood teams are playing each other. Ooh. Their childhood teams both. So would you want to go head to head in a triple play, my childhood team versus your childhood

team, or are you a pussy? And now. What I'm looking at there, of course, is the Cleveland Browns are hosting the Miami Dolphins. The Browns, despite the fact that they're in disarray. hadn't seen They have traded a quarterback They have not seen a ray anywhere They're starting

Dylan Gabriel They're favored by two and a half points We have a game that I don't Who Oh I'm sorry Who knows the last time this has happened Two left-handed quarterbacks facing each other

If anybody knows I bet it's CERC Tua I don't Tag Oli Diabia is he's apologized to his teammates. Man. They're all kind of gathering together. So this could be a big, let's, you know, we're throwing everything we can against the wall to make this happen.

That's all I'm just throwing it out there that I will accept it if you do. Now, if you don't want to, if you answer yes to the question, I are you a pussy, then I've got a couple other games I really like. but I don't really even like the Browns one. I wouldn't do the Browns one. I would not do this. Like, I don't like the Browns, but I would do the Browns to go up against you

because it would be fun. And I know if anybody likes fun, it's Mike Soroy. I love fun, but I will, and I like you bowing up, and it's a great suggestion, but I will answer with a simple one word, pussy.

Okay, because remember, was it last week that Blake offered you? Yeah. An opportunity to go head to head with him. You turned it down. Well, I just told him his triple play was trash and see how that worked out. No, I didn't. But I'm not going to be diverted.

Look, look, respectfully to my cohorts here on the bottom row of the screen I'm looking at, I'm kind of keeping, I'm the one shoveling most of the water out of this boat right now. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, you have something to protect. I owe it to them to attempt to keep this thing floating for as long as possible. But if you want to offer Cash Soroy, will be picking in one, two, three, four, five picks from now.

A similar offer, I would love to hear his answer. But no, I ain't falling in and no traps, especially down 11 games. I'm taking Washington minus one and a half, basically just because sharp money seems to be leaning on Washington, and that's who we follow. And I've done all right with the cowboy, betting against them mostly, and Jake's done all right, but I was the only one with the courage last week to step up and say Sir Per and his Panthers are going to figure out a way. to get it done. And we damn sure

did. So I'm going to keep rolling with the anti-caboy thing. Washington minus one. Wild card and triple. We live in a world boys where Vanderbilt. It's a two and a half point favorite. Dude. Louisiana State University. Are you aware

Vanderbilt is ranked like 11th, Dan? No. It's the SEC thing. Like I'd like to hear Mike tell me a couple of their key players. Oh, dude. I asked Mike. Besides their quarterback. I don't mean that. I mean,

yeah, no one can. Yeah, that's not the point here. It's the whole team. Okay. It is a team. It's Pavia, right? Yeah. Okay, I know him. Diego Pavia. I just see a blur of numbers and schemes. I don't really look at the individual. I don't care of the names on the jerseys. You're going to like

Diego Pavia, Dan. Okay. My beautiful mind. I see the whole picture when I handicap these games. He auctioned off his hot mom to Theo Vaughan. Oh, okay. LSU's offense not good. I am rolling with Vanderbilt as a triple play and a wild card minus two and a half.

I love it. Against the juggernaut that is LSU football. Rolling, rolling. Is that like a railroad thing? Never mind, who's up next. I'm up next. The last matchup of two left-handed quarterbacks was Michael Vake versus Chris Sims in 2006.

Wow. Chris Simms started. Okay. Yeah. For who? The Buck. Bucks, maybe, yeah. Okay.

All right. Well, I did say I have another couple that I like, and I'll mention them very quickly. I actually kind of like, I feel like I like the Titans. Everybody's going nuts over. Wow. New Coach Energy.

The new coach energy. They're getting seven at home. He's not bad. Like, Vrable is, is coming in. I don't know. I just... This is smoke screen. I'm not, I'm not taking this one.

Good. But I am saying there's something to the Titans. No. This week. No. Okay. No. Um.

But I am going to go with... The Los Angeles Chargers. favored by one at home. They are playing Chappie's Indianapolis Colts. It is the bolts over the Colts for my triple play. You see the Chargers Unies this week? What do we got? A lot of yellow.

Old school? Oh, like the snow, the sun itself. The yellowest thing you've ever seen. I mean, they're one. I don't even hate it. but they're well um yeah it feels like the colts time is up i just feel like daniel jones come on no really i don't know man the numbers are real i look every week i'm like how's he doing this meanwhile i'm betting up for the super bowl right now get the mods you are

not saying this is a good pick that's what you're i won't comment on your pick because i'm in dead last but i think the colts are pretty good okay well that's my triple play uh up next would be Danny Bayliss. Okay. I'm going to reverse cowgirl my instincts this week. It makes no sense that Dallas has a chance against Washington.

I'm going to take them plus one and a half. Oh, I never did. I take Washington. Oh, you got your cowboy pick? I'm sorry. I didn't say my cowboy pick. Washington. Give me Washington, Pat. So Washington across the board, except for me. Until now, I'm taking the Cowboys plus one and a half. You know what time it is. South Florida looks like they're on Vegas's radar screen now after they trounced U&T.

And they're favored, according to Blake's spreadsheet 21 and a half over Florida Atlantic. That's a huge spread. Shouldn't be able to cover that. But you know what? I'm taking them as my triple because it makes no sense. and the things that don't make sense in my picks are the ones that always go that way. I like it.

That makes sense what you just said. Nothing bad can happen. It can only good happen. Thanks, Don. What happened to the Malcolm Booger thing? That worked last week. Yeah, it's only one week. All right, Blake, you're up.

We're mixing it up, cash. I said last week that it's more fun for me to bet the Cowboys. I see here that DAC is 11 and 2 against the commanders. I also see DAC is 44 and 18 and 1 at home. That's very good. Those are going to stay strong. Give me the Cowboys.

What about DQ? Really, I looked at DQ versus Bs. Yeah. How many snaps do you think Michael will play Sunday for him? All right. How many did he play when he went to the Super Bowl as a coach, head coach? Did he bring that one home with that defense that he was so known for? He was facing the greatest quarterback of all time.

Listen, I don't blame him for that loss. I just need to keep the bit going. Didn't the Cowboys beat him with Rush twice last year? Yeah, I mean, how do you stop that, though? Like, he, you know, even Dan Quinn. How do you, how do you game plan for C? I don't know. So maybe Dax's great record is because he had Cooper Rush with him all those years, too.

Yeah, maybe. This year, what's Joe Milton telling him? Nothing. He just doesn't know where to throw the ball. All right. so Cowboys. For my triple, I've been atrocious in the NFL, so I feel like I need to go slide into college.

And, yeah, I may be a little blinded here, but the frogs have really beat themselves this year. Okay, Josh Hoover plays well at home. The frogs have won their last six at home. TCU is eight and two against Baylor in the last ten years. They call this game the Holy War. They should change it to, holy shit. This is one-sided.

Dave Randa is getting fired. TCU will win by more than three. Let's get this over with on Saturday morning. Riff, Ramp, Bazoo, let's go, TCU. Hit it. Triple play. Very nice. We got two.

We got two guys who might be playing musical chairs for the hot seat right there. Sunny Dykes, that title run wasn't last year, one year before, two years. Once again, I will extend the offer as we get to Cash Soroy's pick. We could play R. You a Pussy. I just want fun. I don't like the Brown's pick. It's not my triple play, but I do like fun, and I will take it. You know what I like less than the Brown's pick?

Anything going on in Miami right now. So I say pussy. Yeah. If you own it, you own it, you know. Okay, my turn, right? Yep. So logic says you look back at history. So far, the Cowboys this season have gone.

Loss, win, loss, tie, win, loss. They've never done the same thing two weeks in a row. That ends here and now. It is time for this shit team to lose in back-to-back weeks like they're meant to. Like a shit team does. Commanders minus one and a half points is my selection in the game against the Dallas Cowboys. and then for my triple oh what a week uh take your time i'm sure i'm sure that we're all familiar with the story of joe funiano it's a legend jake i know you took note of his

walk-on status in main in 2019 we both thought that jill was going to get a look from a couple of sbs schools turns out that was good fortune for the black bears because when chris Ferguson went down with that foot injury and the loss to Richmond. Joe steps in and throws five touchdown passes in his debut and has been on a rocket ship ever since. He of course entered the transfer portal and Yukon was like, whoa, can it be? Can we get Joe Funiano? Yes, Huskies. Yes, you can. Now it is seventh season in college football. Joe's got Yukon at four and two, 11 touchdowns, no interceptions, and you're giving him a point and a half at Boston College. who's 1 in 5 and 0 in 4 in conference

with pride, momentum, and regional bragging rights on the line? Insulting. Oh, no, no, no. I give myself Yukon as my triple, stone cold lock of the century. Triple play.

It's 11 a.m. Yukon, BC. I'll put a little eye on it. Remember where you were when you heard that. is it even on television that's on radio all right everybody

More sports. Right? Mm-hmm. Sports. Let's see here I think this is one I just grabbed Somehow the Cardinals just came up In that topic there

Oh no Michael Vic came up Michael Vic was the quarterback For the Falcons back in 2007 And I think that at that time Jonathan Gannon Was a quality control coach First year out of a college type guy So

Gannon was asked a question about the quarterback position the other day. Coach, how early in your career did you have to start trying to figure out how to take the emotion out of coaching as far as when you have all these injuries

and you have all these different pieces? When's the first time that you can recall it? 2007 when our quarterback went to jail? It's just a pin drop. Okay? Yeah. That would be a time of adversity for sure. Yeah, he, well, this one's a little, you can have a collection of injuries. That's probably a problem.

But if you're a franchise quarterback goes to jail, he didn't say when he missed the season. He says, when's the first time that you can recall it. 2007 when our quarterback went to jail. It's just such a matter of fact. Okay, yeah. And, you know, will DeMarcato be getting carries this week? or like i don't know how you even right i don't even know how you keep going the toa thing was interesting oh here i want to do this i have an idea for a new segment but for us to

get it are you a pussy no that's great though and i already have an open uh that i've been working on here uh let's see how does this sound this is just shoddy and now it is time for are you a pussy okay um i have an idea for a segment we used to do something called who's got to it better than us, where we would go around the league, whoever the Cowboys' opponent was, it was kind of a Kempspin precursor almost, where, like, hey, the Cowboys, you know, there's a new Jones

kid, here's a new sexual assault case, here's a new this, a new that, a new this. And if you look at the NFL week to week, pretty much every franchise has stuff constantly going on where you're like, what the hell? I didn't know about that. I forgot about that. This isn't that same vein.

But to get the segment off the ground, I have to play a clip for you from what I consider to be the greatest comedy special of all time, which is the Kings of Comedy, not the first one, the black one, with Cedric the Entertainer, Bernie Mac, D.O. Hugley, and emceived by Steve Harvey. And they're in Charlotte, North Carolina. And this is right around the time that Ray Carruth had gotten himself into a whole heap of trouble. So I'm going to play you just the very start of this bit. Ray Carruth, what, killed his pregnant girlfriend? He did.

He might have also hired someone, but he did. Yeah, he, and the kid lived and is still alive, I believe. Yes, but it deals with real messed up. Real messed up, I think, is the diagnosis. So I got to play you this so we can get to the name of the segment. y'all had a lot of good stuff happening in this charlotte your football team had a pretty decent season that's that's all right give my hand you know so you know you know you know you know y'all just got the football team a few years ago now you're sitting there like it's been a part of the city for 30 damn

year i say football team y'all the country ass ought to be glad you got a football team here's the segment. I ain't don't need a boo with me. Y'all need some last because I'll tell you

right now, all the news about your football team ain't been good news. So he then does an entire three-minute

Ray Carruth bit, which is great. I highly recommend that while you're in your family feud phase, you go back and watch this. I'm not a D.L.

Hughley fan. He destroys. It is, it's well produced because they've got crowd shots. But all the news about

your football team ain't been good news i feel like is a weekly look at the NFL yeah for just how much worse so many situations are obviously brian callahan is a story we need to follow up on the man who did not know that an elbow equals two feet uh he's been fired now his father former cowboy's offensive line coach bill callahan he was retained for about 18 hours and then let go. The rest of the staff is still there. Interim head coach is Mike McCoy. I hadn't heard that name in years,

but he was hired by Brian Cowan. So it's a continuation of a guy they were very tired of after two years, not even. Such a, and the Bears did this too. If you're not sure about your head coach, but you're going to draft what you consider to be the franchise quarterback, you should get, you should just start with the new head coach.

Because all these quarterbacks are being set back a little bit, I would think, by having to do this a year later. Now, the Callahan thing, I don't know, and the owner, the lady, is kind of a mess. Yeah, obviously shouldn't have got rid of Vrable. But, you know, in Chicago they knew. They knew that they didn't like Ivor Fluse. And let's just give it another shot. Let's just see one more year. Man, the more you think about it, I guess you could say this in any sport, but the name of the game in the NFL really is timing, like how you match all your stuff up, right, so that you're not wasting time.

I think the Cowboys are atrocious at this. This is the worst bit about their whole business is they don't line the times up. And you honestly, you can keep your window open if you know what you're doing. The Cowboys just don't line it up properly as evidenced by the fact that they traded their best. player a week before the season, the sort of thing you would have to have a year of planning in place to absorb, not because you got pissed off. So Brian Callahan got fired. I read a little bit about some of the problems they had there. It wasn't just the elbow two feet thing. They lined up to kick a 57-yard field goal in week two. He couldn't get the play in, took a delay a game,

and then they missed the ensuing. It was after like a timeout, too. The delay of game was after a time out. End of game or an end of game type situation. That makes it a 62-yarder. It gets blocked. Panthers fans were upset. Excuse me, Panthers fans. Titans fans were pissed that when they were down 26-0-to-the-texans a couple weeks ago,

they were backed up inside their own five with a minute and a half to go. And they just ran Pollard three times into the line, which out there, they're like, it's like we were with Zeke. why are you just using beating this guy's body up down 30 points at the end of a game um so they they're way out on him his dad gets fired a day and a half later and then the other one i wanted to discuss was the dolphins like the two thing is i don't know here's a little bit of him having to come back after he said in his post game leadership is a problem here we have guys who are showing up late or not showing up at all to play or only meetings and

It just goes to speak of the structure and the leadership of this team. So, seemingly, he was there criticizing, like, the coaching? The coaching, probably the GM. If you're calling a players-only meeting, I would point at the supposed leader of the players, which is the quarterback. Especially if you're not, like, on your rookie deal, right? Yeah. You've been paid quite a lot. So here's just a little bit of two.

I think there's a blame game in here. a leader of this team, of the Miami Dolphins, you know, the comments that had been said, I would say I've made a mistake and I'm owning up to that right now. You know, I've

talked to guys on a team about it, talk to the leaders about it, and you know that they know my heart, they know that. How often do you hear a politician? I know I said that slur, I said this. That's, anybody

he knows me, knows it's not what's in my heart. The intent was right, but no matter the intent, you know, the intent can be right, but when things get misconstrued or however the media wants to portray it. Wait, how do we are you saying the intent is right? What was his intent? Hold guys accountable, I guess. Basically. So I want to make, do it in the room type thing. I want to make sure you know I was right what I did. I was right. And really, it's kind of silly that I even am apologizing, because what this comes down to, the intent was right, but no matter the intent, you know, the intent can be right,

but when things get misconstrued or however the media wants to portray it, they just said what you said. There's a video of it. And then your coach the next day was like, I think this sucks. I don't think he should have done it. you'll probably be hearing from him. That's not the media's fault. That is not what you want from your franchise quarterback.

And that's this weekend all the news about your football team. This is what he said after they wrote it. Oh, yeah. Wrote it out for him. Right. There you go. So go Cowboys. Blake?

I decided to listen to the Cowboys broadcast, radio broadcast with Shammon Bay. because we've noted before that Brad will insert his opinion through the broadcast where we played the audio of Brandon Aubrey of like, hey, the front office, you're going to sign this guy yet? Yeah, he's doing a show for sure, always. We get a lot of condescending Brad. Like if they haven't been able to run the ball well

for a couple weeks and then in the first half, you know, Dowdell or whoever it is now, Javante breaks a big one. And he's like, no. They couldn't run the ball. There's one for all the fans saying shoddy wouldn't be able to win a single game. A lot of that. Right.

And so I thought... He's very entitled. You have to remember he was there during the Super Bowls. Oh, yeah. And he also, you have to remember, is a member, like he's paid by the cowboy. Like he has offices with the Cowboys. Yeah. Some play-by-play guys, they work for their whatever organization and they roll in.

he works for the Cowboys he is a Dallas Cowboy and gets to sit in business class so while going through this game it's I don't the jury's still out if I like this broadcast or not

because it's not your typical here's the play here's the analysis here's the play here's the analysis we're doing comedy we're doing lots of shoutouts we're doing the Brad and Babe podcast during the game

it's very strange to figure out but they're both doing comedy I thought I'd just give you an example let's begin with Babe here's just comedy from Babe At the Dallas 36 yard line Young in the gun He's a young gun

He is a young gun He literally is a young gun Long count He's changed something Okay You didn't like that Well how about this from Brad Illegal formation, offense, number 17, covered up the tight end.

That penalty is declined, third down. And Legat said, I wasn't anywhere near him. I didn't have a blanket. I didn't cover. What are you talking about? Oh. Oh. So that's what you're missing out on by not listening to the Cowboys Radio Network.

But the reason I listened. I get what it's like to be a not funny person and feel like you need to be. to say every single thing that comes to your mind just try to cut it in half um no no they uh they blew by the stop sign every time green lights so i have pulled for you i've i've labeled this mad brad because the cowboy's defense they're struggling and that upsets the play by play guy he's been here through the great wall of dallas or whatever they were called um so here's a couple minutes this could have been 15 minutes. It's not, but here's what you missed out on. So the Panthers with a good return will start at their 34-yard line. Let's see if the Cowboys defense can stop them at all.

The Cowboys offense continues to be impressive. The Cowboys defense continues to be very confused and confusing. And a completely blown coverage on that side, and the Dallas defense continues to be absolutely nightmares. Young on the run, throws wide open to the 10-yard line, easy catch for Dowell and he's in for the Carolina touchdown and nobody covered him. That's some of the worst

past defense that has ever been played. Going back to Pudge Hefflefinger, as Jason Garrett would say. I didn't get that one. This is a unsustainable past defense. You know what the funny thing is, Brad, each week No, I don't.

Please tell me something. He's pissed. But if the Cowboys defense can't make this field position. Babe was about to do his punchline there. They don't have time. If the Cowboys defense cannot make this field position pay off, then heads must rule. Which head would you like, I'll give you a list.

You know, the one thing about the past defense is it is just about as bad as the run defense. At the 27, handoff Dowell trying to get outside right there. There he goes. Pause it. Let's get, then when you get to the press conference and everybody's like asking the tougher questions, no, Brad. Yeah, I know. He's not there. You'll do that.

Like, he knows no one listens to this stuff. What good things did you guys see at a Shamar James in his seven snap? Yeah, let's get snarky there. Like, let's talk about some heads that should roll. Right. Yeah. This is a, the analyst, if anyone, the color commentator would be given their opinion after you just kind of, you're painting a picture for the audience. And that analyst would go.

maybe possibly to a post-game press conference and ask, hey, why isn't anybody being fired over this? But he's busy asking, do you know it's your birthday tomorrow? Yeah, that's right. That was his question. A little bit more. I love when the play-by-play guy gets mad, he starts to get so condescending. You know, the one thing about the past defense is. Handoff, Dowell, trying to get outside right there.

He goes 30. Yeah, no. No one's going to stop. I went through a lot of this, too, and there's a lot of Brad just, like, just give up, Brad, where he's cheering for the Panthers, almost. Like, oh, whoa, there you go. Oh, yeah, yeah. At the 27, handoff, Dowell, trying to get outside right there. He goes, 30.

First down. 32. Well, I'll tell you what, there better be some coaches breaking down some schematic tape on the short plane ride. There's going to be some coaches breaking down. Oh, yeah. There's going to be a breakdown, baby. I mean, this is just, this is embarrassing. I can't think of a time when a quarterback had so little wiggle room.

Now he's going to start defending Dak. Good. He's just defining hapless. I mean, at some point, he's going to sue him for lack of support. Ah, no, I'm saying, we're good, and then you heard a couple of Dallas defenders saying, we're not. It's odd that he went right to that line of comedy. We're really not. We're bad.

We're struggling over here. I hope the commanders' offense are not watching this on their travel day because they're going to drool and someone's going to fall on trip and get hurt. That's probably enough. They've got some more, but just this is the guy telling you the time and score and down and distance and just this defense is putrid. Should I give him credit, though? Because he is paid by the Dallas Cowboys. He has an office there. They've never had a problem with that.

I listen to the fan occasionally. I listened to Cowboys podcast. But I thought, I thought Dale got fired for being too critical. That may have been the case, but that's probably a situation where it is, but also there's a personality thing. You know what I mean? Yeah. But I, my beef with their broadcast has never been that. It's just that it almost, I told Blake yesterday, it feels like listening to the Prairie Home Companion.

Like it's like a, almost like a fake broadcast to me because they will play, like, I know, Blake actually likes this from a technical standpoint. I don't like when he talks to clips. Like he's talking to the person. And like in pregame, he'll be like, you know, he doesn't say like, and Dak talked about the need to get it going on play action on second down or third down. He's like, and it's important for the Cowboys to get it going on second down with play action. Isn't that right, deck?

Yeah. And it's like Dak's talking to him. I get it. But it sounds, it doesn't even sound bad. It just sounds like a fake broadcast to me. It's not bad, necessarily, except for if you're trying to know what happened in the game. Yeah.

Then it's a bit of a disaster. Yeah, I'm going to monitor this. See how upset Brad gets the rest of the year. It'll probably get better. Run defense, just step it up. Today in Twitter, Cowboy Edition. Okay. Did you see Bob get?

Quote tweeted by Sam Williams? No. Yep. And this is not Sam Williams' dad, right? Sam Williams calls himself dad Sam Williams Sr.? Correct. Okay. So, oh, you got a kid?

Wow. Yeah. How'd that happen? God forbid. Yeah. Black fathers take pride in their... Oh, we're doing that? That's ridiculous.

No, I'm telling you that's 100% what it is. You're saying it's because... I mean, I know that's what it is. that there's like, we don't have a bunch of a lineage. My grandparents, grandparents were just slave. We don't have a, I didn't have a dad. I'm going to start that right now by being senior and like being proud about it. I'm not saying I would do it.

I'm telling you that's what it is. You see a lot of white guys doing this? Like even white guys. I'm going to have to add this to my thing because, you know, I've always been against the player putting senior on their jersey unless. A hundred percent. And I'm not saying it's not Erie senior. And you're an OG on it. But I think that's what it is.

Anyway, Bob tweeted out, this is extra, because you say sometimes guys are looking for their name. They or someone, they either have it set up to do, they do it manually, or one of their people do it. All this is is Bob tweeting out a picture of, was it, Lee Gett, just holding off the Sam Williams rush, blocking. Yeah. and it's October 14th if you want to go back 800 tweets to find Bob two days ago Bob tweets a lot um I'm not a Bob Twitter guy that's you know it's just my game what do you mean like I you don't block Bob no but I'm mute him oh okay well I just I'll just say it publicly whatever okay I don't I mute a lot of people but I once did and then he got he found out and I got

mad at me. Do you remember that? That was a block. No, it was a mute. No, it was a mute. Yeah, yeah. Oh, I remember it quite well, my friend. I took a picture of what was it. It was really funny. I can tell you exactly what it was. It was the weekend that Anthony Scaramucci randomly followed everyone who worked at the ticket. Okay, yeah, the guy that was Trump's chief of staff for a day or something. He was on Twitter and somehow his account, which he was running, followed everyone from the ticket. And Dan took a picture. And Dan took a picture of it and sent it to the group chat and I'm like you and but it showed all the guys from the ticket that I follow or that but it did say Bob was muted I assume Bob knows that

I would mute him because I have I've always had the don't tweet with Bob rule like if Bob tweets something at me I don't reply you can't it's not not good okay well he's now unmuted for me I don't know and he has this is my edge at the uh P-O-A, what, point of attack? This is in the Marinelli report, which I do, or not Marin, you know, I do pay for his content. Yeah, getting destroyed by a wide receiver almost off the entire screen. So that's it. His verbiage there was, this is my, like, it wasn't like, this is Sam Williams.

Right. It was just a circle, and then Sam Williams quote tweeted it with a cry laugh. And then people are piling on him like, hey. Piling on Sam Williams? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, actually, that's pretty bad, pretty bad look for you not to be running through him. Yeah, he's having a really rough year.

He doesn't look like he's all that bought in, all the opportunity in the world given right before you, and he has not been good, dude. As a Rock, who's been way better. This was Sam Williams' money here, right? Yeah. And he might have been thinking, boy, Mike had gone, that's good for me. Sure. Again, all the opportunity.

But perhaps a lot of the players thought they were better than they, actually are until Michael left. It's a big part of it, but I just want to say that reaction from the athlete, I love it. I love it because they can't handle criticism, and rather than engage with it seriously, he didn't say

like, hey, actually, because I don't have the point in front of me, I was trying to engage the end and Leggett cracked me from the side, and you didn't know what actually, which Bob would have, but he didn't even try to explain it. Right? It's just your media cry laugh, idiot. Well, my

thing is you're going to be out of the league in three years buddy what this is not people focusing on their like i take that as a given now that's just got to be a given for every player in the nfl like i actually is do they react to it one of the things i like about deck is that he is well above all this stuff agreed and i kind of want my players like yeah let's focus on what's in the and this is a shoddy failing i think well it's a sam williams failing to me because if you good, this would be funny. Michael was doing it. Baker Mayfield does it. Sam Williams is a guy who we already think like, dude, I don't know if you care enough. Now to do this on top of it, can't have it. And I don't think he'll be here next year. What do you think about that?

I think I'm stunned and I need a few minutes to think about it. Last email is one of those that make me wonder if it was just a bad day for Carl or if this is really upsetting him. It's maddening that you start your 10 p.m. newscast at 9.59. Why? If you do start at 10 p.m., then you're on-screen. Clock is wrong. Either way, it's maddening. Clarice, noted. No. Noted.

You know, it's a small little boutique bakery, but I'm like, hey, I don't know. Let's see, not Thanksgiving. When's the last time you had pie? Just not you.

Yeah, I was going to say. I'm on a tear right now. Just a slice of pie. Yeah, but wouldn't that sound nice? Oh, it rules, dude. Yeah. I don't know if it's $52 rules, but because I thought about getting one to bring up here and surprise you guys. Like, I'll bring one up to the show.

It's Matt Brunig. From the Brunigs Hey pal Greetings everyone From the Brunigs Pretty much weekly All that matters is that they get the You did this to him last time

They get it in under the year Right So he says And then we're going to get to those December broadcast And he's going to be like Well I'm a little behind We got seven hours to catch up

If we do a seven hour show It's going to be great I've been here before listeners to count them, daring them to spend the time to figure it out. I've seen this play before, and these guys are like, oh, no, they'll do it. No. I know my, I know, Bruno. He's just, he's just hoping no one is as autistic as him in the audience.

So as long as he can outrun that, then he's fine. Oh, I forgot. What do you got? It has nothing to do with Matt Brunig. Here's your wallet. Oh, Jake left his wallet in my house like three days ago. We saw. Wait, you never went and got it?

He never went and got it. He lives 10 minutes away from me. They have an insane thing now on your phone where you can pay with it. And I don't know that I don't feel that I'm going to be nabbed by any government agencies. Didn't you need the condom? Yeah, I needed the magnum in there. I'm just an upstanding citizen. I wouldn't dare drive without my license.

Yeah, I know, Blake. Good point. Great point. Did you guys think driving with your shoes off was illegal when you were growing up? Well, no. What do you mean when I'm growing up? I thought it, seriously, I didn't think you're allowed to do that. Did you grow up with that, Matt?

Why? No. I don't know, but it was always told to me. Yeah, I've been under the impression that it is not legal. Are you telling me it is legal? I know. I've never followed up. I assume this is like a...

I don't know. Like your foot can slip off easy or something or... No. What kind of feet? Where can you have? Yeah, right. What's the... Could you have like a mascot feet?

I would think that'd be terrible, yeah. But they have to allow it. They're like, I think these are shoes. I wanted to have Matt on just because we haven't had him in a while. And let's have Matt Brody on. That's a good reason. There's a couple of stories, though, this week that I thought we needed his expertise for. The Commanders game calls to mind one of our nation's great cultural debates over calling the Washington football team the Redskins or not or the

brown skins as Ditka offered. That was the only other thing he could come up with when moving off of redskins. We'll get to that in a second. But we have this story regarding tortilla gate and maybe more accurately pocket knife gate. We played this audio on Tuesday. Texas Tech football is on a tear right now. This appears to just be the beginning. And because of that, their fans are super fired up.

and that runs right into a rule change that the Big 12 had to tighten up their objects on the field policy. You are allowed to throw tortillas or other objects, I suppose, onto the field in mass at the beginning of the game. And after that, they're basically going to penalize you every time. They may say you're going to get one more warning, but I think it's, you might be burning both those warnings in one time. Because if someone throws it two seconds or two minutes after the warning, we're already to it. They got flagged twice in their most recent win. It's been a deal. Joey McGuire and Lance Leopold, the Kansas coach, meet at midfield.

Leopold's all bent out of shape about it. You've got to do something about this. And McGuire's like, what do you want me to do about it? Then that spills over to the postgame press conference. In the postgame press conference, Leopold says he believes the referees and the conference handled this terribly. and then in just a real like HOA suburban dad mad move when there was a lull he's like and also they threw a pocket knife it should just be said someone threw a pocket knife and

hit one of our staffers sometime in the third quarter well because college athletics is what it is the people from tech especially their extremely activist AD Kirby Hokit was not going to take this lying down. He did an investigation into the pocket knife. And what they found, at least according to Texas Tech, is that this pocket knife was actually in possession of a Kansas player and it had fallen out of their pocket or something. But here's a video that tech produced where you can see I don't think the audio the audio might be important but yeah that that's the knife you can see which then tech argues disproves the claim that it was thrown from the stands this video goes on to show the knife possibly being picked up from the turf by a j hawk player

and would eventually make its way to head coach lance lippold again to be clear the $25,000 fine assessed to tech is not related to this incident but for the repeated violations of tortillas being thrown onto the field. So that's where we are. That knife clearly, when it was brought to Lance Leopold, as they're getting pounded and they're already pissed off, he's like, one of these uncultured swine?

By the way, does that belong on the list? I don't even know what that means, but I don't know that I've ever used swine outside of adjacent to uncultured. So this is where we are. College football is so petty that they're like, we didn't throw this night.

We're talking about probably an 18-inch blade, or 18-inch, like an inch and a half. Right, the teeny little clean your nails with it, maybe. So that's where this got to. I don't know if you have any thoughts, Matt, on how the conference is going to police this, these sorts of rules at all. My first thought was that, what is it like, the Kansas think they're Vic Mackey or like the LAPD? You can just plant a knife on the sideline, like a drop. gun and then later say one of these idiots through it it's uh it's a fun little story yeah what is

the thing that the coaches that the coach did that's um you know sanctionable um they're not saying that he that this was a plant that he knew it was a plant that he was involved in some kind of fakery they're not saying that he was intentionally lying right it seems like even the video confirms that he didn't know someone handed it to him is reasonable for him to assume so what what was his crime exactly. Yeah, because the Kansas AD did get out in front of it, I guess, out in front of it and said, you know, Coach Leopold shouldn't have been talking like that. He shouldn't just be out there talking without substantiated facts about what happened and slapped him on the wrist for it. So, yeah, I mean, I don't know what exactly, it all feels like college football.

They can just kind of pick what they want and find you for it or say it was, it's almost like. But you didn't get fine for that, right? No, well, not the story that they find Kansas as well. Yeah, they find Kansas for all of this. They find Kansas fine was due to disparaging comments about the conference in a member institution and an inaccurate statement regarding a pocket knife by head coach Leefold. I don't know how, like, what if you go out there and you say like,

even these fines, though, what is the point of it? It doesn't actually hurt anyone in any substantial. That's the point of a fine, right, to deter? Yeah. Less money. Less NL. I guess not NIL technically, but right? Less money for the program.

It's not great, but it's also a drop in the bucket. And I know this is just what you do in sports talk, but I could see a situation where this is a problem for them, like on the road, or even at home later in the season or next year if they don't figure this out. like there's definitely a brunig in at an 18 year old brunig at one of these games it's like I'm going to throw one after the two warnings wearing the opposing team shirt and see what they do about it yeah I don't know that's a good bit that'd be a great bit oh and and it seems like in the stuff I read that the coach had made statements saying don't throw them don't

throw them so beyond that what is it that you want them to do right I could see if you say look if you're not made if in our judgment you're encouraging it or you're not discouraging it enough. But what is the thing that I need to do to cross that discouragement bar? You know, it seems very, very vague. So this story to me is a specific type of story. And it is the Lubbock boogeyman. So we all know tech is a bit strange. It's way out there. For a lot of people, it's the school you go to when you didn't get into tech. or Oklahoma or A&M. So it's kind of got that like cast-off vibe to it.

You always hear, oh, weird stuff happens at night in Lubbock. And I think this is partially just because the blue blood programs look at it, like a group of banshees. But this is not the first incident we've had like this. Today we're going to relive Gap Kid and the goalposts being shoved into the Aggie section back in 2001. Now, do you remember this story, Matt? I don't think so, no. So back in 2001, Texas Tech was hosting Texas A&M in a big 12 conference game.

They won 12 to nothing. And when the game was over, the Texas Tech fans decided that they wanted to take down a goalpost and get it out of the stadium. They wanted to take it through like the northeast exit where there's a huge tunnel, or at least there was then. and they wanted to carry it out to Broadway, the main drag there in Lubbock. But as you know, when a game ends, when loser draw, the Aggie Faithful are staying down there for another hour doing their whole bit. Like, now it's time for the show,

where we do the songs and all this and that. There that day was a retired colonel who was the chief of staff for Rick Perry, who was the governor at the time he had a son the chief of staff the retired colonel had a son who played for the Aggies of course you know Rick Perry and Aggie so he's in the end zone

in the stands as this goalpost is approaching as the goalpost is approaching carried by tech fans Lubbock's police department blocks that entrance and is like not happening you can see this on video

the crowd then turns and is like well we got to do something with this goalpost they decide they're going into the A&M section with it we're going to ram this goal post up into the section so to do that they get it to the section and the guys at the head of the goal post

I guess the uprights start to climb up into the section at which point several Aggie Faithful are just swinging one of the guys who was swinging was that retired colonel and he

got cold-cocked, bloodied. And there's pictures of this, and as the tech training staff tries to address his wounds, he waves them off. Only an Aggie trainer will address this

blunt-forced trauma I just received. He gave quote to the newspaper and said, it was like I was defending the Alamo, which when you see the video... Well, no, and he got his ass kick so kind of

he got his ass kick he was in a defensive position and there were Mexicans everywhere on the offense and he he said that people were coming up into the stands and it was threatening and people were getting hit and he took his binoculars started swinging him and said

I'm going to knock out the next person who comes over that wall whoa that's pretty so the governor the next day Rails against Texas Tech The chief of staff says You guys are going to pay for this in the summer

When the budget comes up Tech's going to pay for this So dust settles for a couple days And a young man named Reginald Who is a Texas A&M student Comes forward And says Yeah, I'm the one who hit him

Reginald's black by the way He's a black Texas A&M student So now we're in a real quandary if you're A&M on how to classify this. But when asked why he hit him, Reginald said, I did it because he was spinning his binoculars around looking for someone to hit. I did it to keep him from hurting anyone. So that's just one of many stories. That's awesome. I never knew that.

Do you know about Gap Kid? No, I do remember the goalpost being carried out and brought back in and it being a big thing. This is Gap Kid. He's a 13-year-old at the time who would go on to a 10 Texas Tech and he sold these shirts for charity. He's wearing a purple Gap brand shirt and

look at the ruffians he's surrounded by. These are the people who carry It's like junior high kids. The whole, it was a bunch of Lubbock junior high kids and this retired colonel's like, you've got to be kidding me. He sees Mexican kids everywhere. I'm going to start swinging.

Swinging his binoculars. It gets knocked out by an Aggie student. That's awesome. And then this is, so yes, I wasn't sure if you were aware of this one, Matt, but there are many such stories. I just think it's a thing where people look at Lubbock, they get scared, and then Lance Leopold's like, they had a pocket knife. This is on, these people are crazy. What's the strategy with swinging binoculars? I feel like that's not an effective.

You get one blow and then you're out, right? That's a good blow, though. Maybe. It depends on how heavy they are, but that just seems. It's a very childish behavior, you know, like swinging your arms and stuff, like thinking like that's how you're going to, you know, it would be better probably to have your fists up, you know, you can... You're a colonel.

Well, it looked like he was 80, though. It didn't look like the end of the power. He's old, but still, yeah, also questionable having binoculars in the lower bowl. Like, I don't know. I kind of miss binoculars. Oh, you're right. There you go. He's 80.

Uncle, the Colonel Uncle. Now, this other story, Matt, like I said, The commanders are here. What years did you live in D.C.? Uh, 2014 through 2020. Okay, so this clip I'm going to play for you is from 2016. And things were, this was being hotly debated at the time. FedEx had not yet put the nail in the coffin.

What year did they do that? That was five years ago, right? Did you live there when they changed their name? Yeah, I remember the whole, I remember it was a newspaper. a lot and yeah, yeah, yeah. I like that. There were polls, surveys about it. The football team, I thought was cool.

No, that was great. I loved how it broke like a lot of the kind of automated graphics and stuff online where it would just say like football team versus, you know, cowboys. And that would be it. There would be no Washington. It would just say because they'd only programmed the nickname. So, yeah, I don't know. It's hard.

We just joke about it down here, but it feels like something people were actually. talking about up there. And maybe that's because it's a political set, more likely to engage in culture stuff. But that's the sense I always got. You're changing the name of something that's been around for 70 years or whatever, right? Yeah, no, it's a big deal.

I mean, you know, there were a lot of people who are in D.C. who aren't from there. So there may be, if you're kind of in that milieu, they don't really care. They're not following the football team. But anyone who's local is real, real into it. I remember there was a guy, the first place I lived there, he was probably I don't know, 10 houses down for me, like Roe House, and they had like a little patio.

And the whole patio was redskin everything. Like the whole, like he would just sit out there in his redskin jacket, watch football. And yeah, I don't know. It was like an old, old black guy. I don't know, I don't know whatever happened to him. He would have been a good guy to follow up on. Like how does, how is he coping with his entire patio and porch just being, you know, eradicated? Yeah, and it's tricky, too.

Black guy, you're not as likely to walk up and be like, hey, you know, that's really offensive. Because now there are images, of course, of like a white guy with his face painted, yelling at a Native American. Like, hey, this is not offensive. And those are some of my favorites. And that's sort of what we have here today. I found a news story from 2016. Just going back and looking at, well, just searching Redskins in the Dropbox. Let's be honest about it.

this is a story that WFA did 10 years ago and it is about a local youth football team now remember this is 2016 this is a team that plays here in DFW can you get me here my bad final Cowboys loss of the season the kids football team in Coppell

is decked down in Redskins gear straight from Washington their coach is making a statement and tonight he talked to News 8's Jobin Panicker Well, it is a name and logo that has come under so much scrutiny. And one thing is for sure, there is passion on both sides. Everybody getting your spots. We're going this way, getting your spots.

Go undefeated for three years, and you're making a statement. Nobody wants to be the washing redskins. So there were some eyebrows. Okay, now we're talking to the coach. He appears to be about 50, 45, 50 at the time, Coppell, suburban white guy, okay? and he's going to lay it out for you. Nobody wants to be the washing redskins. So there were some eyebrows.

Especially in cowboy country. That a boy. So this is not something that people should be ashamed of. But go in wearing this logo and this name, and you're making a louder statement. It's actually a badge of honor for most Native Americans. Okay. I want to be clear here, too, they don't just have, like, it doesn't just say like redskinned. They're wearing, they're called the Washington Redskins, and they're wearing NFL gear.

Like Washington Redskins pro geese. Huddle up. Hunt Benel coaches these fifth graders in Coppell. He chose the name. Really? You think he chose? The city didn't... Yolanda Blue Horse is on the other end.

It is considered an offensive word to a group of people. It is offensive. Full-blood Native American. She led the protests outside the Cowboys Redskins game Sunday. I don't say that name. If I don't need to, it is... And this is what we tell people that the R-word is equivalent to the N-word. Yolando wants to educate, pleads people to see the historical context.

Interestingly, so would hunt. Come on. Interestingly. The coach would even write a letter in support to the Redskins. Tell him what we think about what he's going through. The owner sent back sweatshirt. Just imagine writing a letter to Dan Snyder. Hey, I know you're taking on a lot of heat.

Yeah. A lot of heat. Why don't you know there's some love here? There's a picture of my boys that I'm using as a fucking pull. political football. The coach would even write a letter in support to the Redskins. I tell him what we think about what he's going through. The owner sent back sweatshirts, shirts, you name it, thousands of dollars worth of merchandise

to these excited fifth graders. It's a reminder of what I've lost. Yolanda sees it as a step back to her mission. It's not just a mascot name. It means to us more than that. They just want to play football. So the only thing they asked me was, is it okay for us to remain Dallas Cowboy? fans. And I said, yeah. They just want to play

football, right? That's all these kids want to do. So maybe you shouldn't have done this. So I changed the name of their team to a controversial slur. Right. And also not like the team that's in their backyard. Right. They grew up in Coppell. They were the cowboys in high school. Yeah. It's worse than that. We think

the worst possible. And you're like, these guys, I don't understand why you guys are out here. They just want to play football. Yeah. Why is the media here? And to me, team Washington still really kills me. It's really no need for that. It's so over the top. And I don't know. Obviously, this guy, and full disclosure, I found his Instagram. He's the head of a very powerful law firm here in Dallas. He's extremely

MAGA. And so I'm not surprised he didn't answer my DM asking him to come on the show. Because I just wanted to congratulate him on an all-time bit. It's a great bit. The fact that the parents went along with it as well. It seems like that's something they could just, no, we don't want it for any number of reasons. You don't even really have to be woke to say, I don't know, kids, just, you know, we're Cowboys fans. Yeah, yeah, we're just, yeah. Washington, what's going on with that? Yeah, is it's like, it's, they take on, you know, grapevine,

Collieville, Coppell, Washington on the schedule. Which is not where you live. Like, it would be so easy just to take the name of your city and then put Redskins at. Like, that's what they would do. Right. Not enough. He needed to stand in solidarity with the actual Washington Redskins. So.

That's a fun one. Matt Bruning hasn't been sports trolling lately. Oh, can I say one thing before? Can you, let's discuss the dropping the ball before the end zone thing. Because we were trying to come up with reasons for that. I'm like, maybe it's like, hey, this is so easy for me type thing. And I thought Matt had a great point on this, although not troll, a good sports point. Yeah, so, you know, in science, as I read it at least, dopamine,

the brain, it goes up as you are getting near and anticipating success. You know, that's part of the drive. But once you feel like success is certain, even if you haven't achieved it yet, the dopamine goes down and they like contract this in rats and people and stuff. So what probably happening with the people who are all alone running to the end zone is they get that spike and then that collapse before they get in, they get a feeling of completion. that's premature and they drop the ball. And to me that makes a ton of sense

on the heels of like Scotty Sheffler talking about like when you win it's kind of like okay it's the drive, it's the chase, it's the quest and then you get there and it's just not it's nowhere near the lead up to it. Right, you see this in sprinting as well if you've ever watched

people run the 200 meter or 100 meter either it seems like they let up at the end Like when they're winning, I mean, you kind of, I always watch, I'm like, keep pushing, you could maybe set a record. But those last five meters or something, they kind of often will slow down. Yeah, so I thought that was interesting. Not a troll point, but maybe he's been too busy to troll. I don't know. What gives?

I mean, what's there, what's going on in sports? Baseball? They're still doing that? All right. So time for viewer mail. Oh, yeah, wait a minute, Uncle Hotmail. Oh, they're still playing. Brewers are going tonight, Dan, and as they say, as you know,

series doesn't start to an away team or something. Let's say it's brought to us by Frankel and Frankel, personal injury attorneys. If you get in Iraq, Matt Brunig, here in Dallas, or the DFW area, did you come back now and again? 214 or 817, then all threes. They are personal injury attorneys.

They are here to help you. no matter how mangled your arm or hand is 214 817 all threes My first one is kind of directed at Blake but it was sent to me it's water information

from Matt Smith he says this is the water map for the same company owns like they have the same it's the same water and then they throw different labels on it in different areas of the country.

Because Blake, when we go to California or when we go to Colorado here in a couple weeks, Matt, Blake will buy tons of Arrowhead water and then mule it back because he loves it. In fact... What do you love about it? What's it tastes like? It's different. It's sourced from different areas. It's not the same water.

If you put all four of these in front of me, me, I could tell you the difference. Don't do this to yourself. I've done it recently. Yeah. And in fact, throw the subby of the week up, Clayton. We have a subby who lives in Denver and recently brought me 15, five-gallon water jugs back from Denver. Dropped them off of my house.

Dropped them off at your house? Yeah, that's service. And Brad is our D.F. Of the week. Give it up for Brad. Had the unilateral power to issue that decree, but sure. Yeah, he drove to Denver. checked on his office or something and came back. He said,

do you want me to bring you back some arrowhead? And he said he felt bad for me because I've been opening up the individual water bottles to pour into the five-gallon jug. Huge beating. Yeah, it sounds horrible. It takes like an hour free. It sounds like a busted front half of an infomercial. Like, like, there's got to be a better way. Like Matt said, the dopamine was unreal. Like, just kind of, yeah, anyway. I hear that. So, yeah, he said he felt bad for me. So he brought me back 15, five-gallon water jugs, which I have stacked in my room right now, and I'm just on cloud nine.

My uncle... Well, you don't need to mule then. I'm going to run out at some point, so I need to... Well, what I'm saying is Ozarka is the same. No, no, you're right, Dan. It's not. You're right, Dan. It's really, really not.

You never just load up on whatever you can in different parts of the country's irrespective of your supply at home. Do you think every thing is the same thing? Like, this water is a different thing. Well, I can tell you this. My uncles were definitely on the every light. beer from every company that it's the same they're just putting in different cans that's not true but i also think like the uh regular gasoline and the premium i think that's all coming from the

same thing down there too agreed uh i just had a real quick one this is just a follow-up a few weeks ago during viewer mail dan got an email uh from a guy that was like hey this is uh after the charlie kirk killing he's like i think you know the media is really messed representing this guy jake said some things that I think are not really representative. So just a yes or no, now that you've had a couple weeks to sort of dive into the literature, do you think that the media was misrepresenting with selective clips? Charlie Kirk, it's a yes or no? Well, I'm not, now I don't answer things yes or no.

I just wanted to move on. Yeah, no, I actually, I haven't watched all of his stuff, but yeah, I was watching this one thing that's like, man, this is not very good. this is he was trying to uh he was trying to he wasn't really disproving redlining but he was arguing like with a black lady from harvard that uh redlining did not have any effect on the future of uh black communities and whatnot and i thought it was a real disingenuous BS argument that seemed like you've decided what side you're on ahead of time and then you're going to uh just try and pound this and his only evidence was like a paper some guy wrote

It wasn't like this, you know, it was just some guy type thing and who said he didn't think redlining affected anything. And his evidence seemed to be that because black banks didn't give these people good loans either. So, oh, okay, I don't know, it just felt like, it felt very racist. So it did not seem like just picking clips were misripping. Yeah, that's what I'll say about the Charlie Kirk thing. know anything else about charlie kirk uh the stars are back and they have a uh new player that brings about another anchor word they have a guy named nathan bastion bastion anybody else doing any you ever hear about the first bastion or exclusively the last

bastion maybe that's just me i feel like last bastion i hear all the time that's the last bastion of So Question of sin Someone named Gigi sent us a thing said That's Grady, baby Who? His name is Grady Grady Williams?

Yes Okay Well apparently he emailed us last year around this time And said it's not called an anchor word It's called a fossil word And he sent us the definition It says a fossil word Yeah, we did this last year

Yep Yep Yep. And he also had the genius idea. Now, Grady and I fought on the air like 15 years ago, so we can be chill. This year he wanted us to check and see if a back is on the list, A, B, A, C, K, which is kind of like asking what the primary colors are. It's got to be one of the first ones we ever did. Taking it back. Yeah. Well, I don't think you should yell at this guy. No, no, no, no. It's just not a good email. We didn't rename the segment, Fossil Words, thanks to Grady. So he wants to remind us again on the same day that, hey, I said you should rename this last year.

We're not going to rename it. It's been anchored phrases since the day we came up with it. Get on board. Or just get off. I'm pro Grady. I apologize to Grady. I got a couple pieces of audio here. This one came from Tom and Coppell.

Now, I am not watching The Mavericks at all. So many pre-season tweets last night. Yeah. I don't reckon. What do you think about Luca's getting in shape? I'll drive all the way up there. It just seemed like maybe Nico had a point. That might have been the last troll I did, sports troll I did see from Mazz.

And it sucks too because the Mavs are going to be good in like 18 months and like really, really good. And Brunig's going to be able to be like just posting pictures of Niko with like vision. and the wider world will fall for it and then someone will send it to me like come get your fucking lawyer and I'm like don't it just ignore him anyways this is from the Mavs Saturday night with Ted Emrick on the call we have a not listening I say the best time to visit the state fair is right as Texas NOU kickoff at the cotton ball wonder what the scene was like

earlier today is Texas earned that upset win over the six elections I think you guys saw that coming. I didn't. Oklahoma came in, what, six? Yep. Right in the country. Okay, so obviously. As I just said.

Yeah, and you want to focus on Ted Emrichs, right after he says sixth, we get a really dropable, yep. Well, I wonder what the scene was like earlier today is Texas earned that upset win over the six selection. I think you guys saw that coming. I didn't. Oklahoma came in, what, six?

Yep. Right in the country? Yep. Yep. As I just said. And then this one, also from Tom and Coppell, Baker Mayfield, MVP this year, Dan's favorite player,

the Dumb Zone's favorite player. He has all the right stuff. We love him, folks. He's a great leader, if nothing else. Here's Kevin Harlan. I think we're laying a story about Baker talking about a mecca. I don't know. I'd say the name still.

Look at that day, a strike of 20 yards. to Abuka moments ago. Baker was talking about the young receiver out of Ohio State. He said he's so intentional. The attention to detail, his football IQ. He's so intentional, huh? He might have intentionality.

So, it's not just shoddy. No. It's the other thought leaders in the NFL space who speak in this manner. Something to look for it. right? It's a hundred percent. It's the therapeutization of America. Yes.

Isn't it keeping yourself, your feet under you, or where you are? You need to be where your feet are. Yeah. Yeah. I've got a couple pictures, one for each of you. I'll begin with Jake because this was sent to us. I guess Paige Bukers was at the Texas OU game. I still think it's Beckers.

Beckers? She's just wearing a generic jersey, and the team name above the number zero just says sport. Yeah. It is great. I'm a fan. You live in Dallas now. What about a nice cowboy jersey?

And did she just not want to be on either Texas or you side? Doesn't want to anger anyone? Did she seek this out? How did she search this? I don't know where you can find this kind of jersey. But it looks like if somebody hired you to do a spot for them, they would put you in this jersey. Yes. And it's not even like her number.

And I don't know if you've observed this at all, Matt. I don't think this is a unique take. I don't know that she's a lesbian, okay? But there... She has a girlfriend. She does she? Because at one point I thought she had either... She announced a girlfriend.

Okay. There is a... Jake hasn't seen video of it, so he doesn't believe that it is. There is a sort of a strain of style and culture throughout female lesbian basketball players that is super like and one tour. late 90s early 2000 urban like it does they wear like whoo honestly

not that far off and she she wears like super baggy basketball shorts and like and one looking that looks like an and one jersey to me like uh you got that at Ross like on the cheap you know that's that I feel like

that's her whole aesthetic though it is giving Ross it's very much giving Ross okay the other picture I have is for Dan um and And, Dan, somebody saw the Goodyear Blimp. Okay, so it's still out there. Yeah, it's above Hard Rock Stadium. I don't know if this was for a Miami game or a Dolphins game, but it's out there.

It just used to signify it was a big game if the Goodyear Blimp would be over there. Like the Browns growing up? Oh, yeah. They're playing a Monday night game, the frickin' blimp's in town. Let's go. Walk outside to watch the blimp. Oh, my gosh. If you could see the blimp overhead.

And then a couple... I wonder how fast the blimp goes. We looked at all. it's not that fast it's like a hundred miles an hour or something but it's oddly fuel efficient it is that's a deal which is why the Rockefeller's killed it yep a couple fossil words whatever oh who's in the kitchen making breakfast right now it's greatie folks this is from chris uh this is a weird one he says pon because we never like we always postpone it maybe pre

Like, are we never poned, like, on time, I guess? Like a video game work. It's a word suffix. Yeah, it's, I think it's, we're just, we have an English professor, at least for the three of us here. Yeah, it's just a suffix of pre. Yeah. Okay. And then Texas Carter says, whelm, people are often under or overwhelmed.

Never whelmed. Yeah, because it's not a word. Okay. It's not a word at all. So the other ones we've been talking about are. I pass along. Okay. So just deny them.

I'll be the clearinghouse. All right. There's a couple submissions. Marv sent us something. An anecdote from a church, he says. He went for the first time and a long time. Peace be with you. And this is Texas Church.

So I remember going to a Texas church when I was a kid because I'd visit Uncle Gary every summer. And I remember this is the first time I ever saw like a full body put into the water in and then out. And they're like, that's how you baptize. Where I grew up, they just put a little water on your forehead or something. And I feel like... Yeah, I think it's just the Catholic Baptist thing.

That seems a better way to do it. Like, the cleaner, whatnot. Are you got, do you go to church now and again when you're a kid, Matt? Or no? Only a couple times. Okay. I've been dunked twice. You have?

Why twice? It didn't, they're like, clearly this didn't stick. Yeah. I think that's what it was. It might have been girl-related. Let's try again. You're not far off, but... Anyway, friends invite us to a special outside baptismal service

where they baptized 18 people in a water trough. At the beginning of service, we did the passing of peace. You shake hands with strangers around you and say, peace be with you. I remember shaking the hand of this middle-aged father behind me. So before each baptism, they had pre-produced a video where the baptized would give their profession as to why they are being baptized.

Okay. So the first handful go, and each video is about the same thing. A woeful sinner recounting an emptiness in her life that the Lord's love is filled, blah, blah, blah. Then we get to the middle-aged father whose hand I had shaken a little while ago. His video is not about an emptiness.

It's about his porn addiction. Let's make that as public as we can. This dude was goon. mooning so hard that he required an intervention. And I shook his hands. It happens. That's, yeah. From there, the baptism was a blur.

Felt like a curb in your enthusiasm bit. I'm wondering to myself, is this the dirtiest or the cleanest hand? Has the guy found God he now never does that? Or was homie machine gunning machine gun firing loads before this baptism? Like Jake drinking. Get him all out. Yeah. What if he got in a buzzer beater before?

this that's from Mark dang that is that's heavy man a lot of stuff going on

at church I mean we had like a guy leave his wife publicly like and he was friends with his kids

and he worked at the church he was a deacon or something and he just had to announce like hey I'm out I'm leaving

with her the new lady and then he just walked out certainly though the public thing that's part of the

that's part You're paying it to your wife. Like, look. All right, yeah, we'll do it at church. We'll do the baptism thing. I want to stay together. Yeah, that's, ooh. All right, I have two more.

Captain Lee Gifford type situation. Two more very short ones. One is, dear Uncle Axswoon Snacker. I made an Uncle Hotmail song for unsuspecting potential sponsors. You know how he lost a big sponsor because of Blake putting together all these people that will write me, call me these weird names. That's from Daryl, and that'll be today's show Ender, the new Hotmail song, if you'd like. And then Mr. Female Anatomy, I Like Blake, was once on the dating prowl.

I would like to add this to his profile picture red flags. Okay. So you have Blake's dating tips for online dating. Garrett says if the girl has more than two pictures with her dog, Then she was completely emotionally unavailable. She doesn't need a man because her sweet little fur baby who love her no matter what. That's pretty presumptuous. I don't know.

I've always thought girls with dogs are clingy. Klingy? Now that sounds more likely. And I'm a clingy guy and I've always had a dog. Because they love the feeling of being loved and wanted and they want that in a man. And when they don't have a man, they get a dog. Yeah, who wants that? Yeah.

Ridiculous So a lot of Amazon catalogs stuff too Oh my gosh yeah People with kids who love the Amazon I have no doubt that the Brunigs have a plan for that That is state of the art and Like I don't know if your kids aren't can we do Just don't listen kids

What do you do about Santa? There's no way you do Santa There's no way Oh yeah Do you? Oh Christmas people I know you're big Christmas people

But I feel like there's a logical I'm with my second one This isn't just Matt. He's got a wife. I know, but he was just Matt? Does just Matt say? She's also extremely logical. And like I feel like that people like that could talk themselves into,

we can actually celebrate the Christmas spirit and Christ, of which she is a Christian more by removing this fantastical element and lying to you. Like, I'm to the point with Carter. He just turned three. I don't know that I want to do it with him. He'll have a great Christmas either way. well your daughter your daughter once she learns though will revel in telling him i know i think the downside is she likes ruining the times for him and this is lame boilerplate but trying to set the tone

of not being misleading and not having to do we did the same thing switchoos like you can trust me right right um but that you know i don't think there's there's much more than that well you just explain to them oh look this is a cultural ritual that we all participate in it's not a reflective of my general truth telling and so it's a whole thing it's the whole production we're involved in so you know you got to be involved in now too and that's part of what we do that's a good way to put it with the older one like you had this now try to keep now she'll run right to him but uh so a lot of amazon catalog emails did just getting that plopped in america's mailboxes a guy gave us a tip the other day that let them have it for a week circle their stuff and

then tell them we got to mail it back to the north pole that's genius and then for the next like seven or eight weeks you can refer back hey remember you had circled such and such like we sent that off to santa um i want everybody to send me their tom thumb picks on sunday if you wear a cowboy's jersey or you see a cowboy's jersey if you run into like a kevin gogan jersey or something i want those cowboys tom thumb picks i also want your best hold music a guy sent me the other day Lenovo's hold music holy shit all right live keys how long do you need me on the line songs

keeps keeps moving forward on you so if you if you encounter good hold music in the wild, send it my way. And I think that's it for me, Dan. All right. Are we going to do the news?

Hope N-N-Y. That's it, my man. Here's Jane with the Dumb-Zone News. What's going on in Connecticut, Matt? You got anything you need to report on? what's the hot topics in the burbs up in connecticut usually just fighting about building more housing or not building more housing the usual stuff we're just nimbie and yambi back and forth yeah there's some master plan to zone this or that some people are mad i'm i'm kind of staying

out of it i guess i don't you know i'd like to see more housing i guess that seems to be where they're headed it seems like you guys have a lot going on up there uh like civil activity wise but Is there a Connecticut State Fair? That's a great question. I don't have heard of one. There's probably is, but I don't think it's a big undertaking. Or else I would have heard about it. Get the half man.

Didn't we have that? We did. I feel like we got to find it. Him. DPD, Dallas Police has launched an investigation into a case of animal cruelty. and this was a story that was on a bunch of the local outlets last night because a woman recorded her neighbor beating a dog with a baseball bat. Now, did it have distemper?

As, I guess, the precedent was set by Blake's grandfather. If the dog did have distemper, then it is okay to beat it to death with a bat. What's distemper? No idea. No, you know what it does? What it is, it feels like an old man term where you, again, this word is a, it's kind of a suffix. Like, where you add that to the word temper. I think he's distempered.

Dog kind of bitey, whatever. Yeah. Whatever. Let's just beat it with a bat. Yeah. So it, that way you can feel better about yourself if you do the, just drop it off on the side of the highway somewhere and drive back home. At least I didn't beat it with a bat. man i don't know i don't know i think there's probably some deeper stuff going on there what do you mean just like psychologically if you're the type of person sorry blake's granddad

but the first tool you reach for is bludgeon to death of like well that's what i'm saying you can feel better about yourself if you are someone who just leaves it out in the country because that's a bad person but not as bad as bad yeah you're right i just think like you're exposing is Blake's sadistic grandpa. Yeah, I mean, I don't know, man. Who played whack-a-mole with live dogs. It's just tough, like, depression era. It's tough to judge somebody for what they decided to do.

They didn't have an eye, if he only had an iPhone. So, yeah, the neighbor says, we were yelling at her that we're going to call the cops on her to stop and she just didn't care. The woman. Yeah, it was a woman. You can see in the video where she's just saying, I don't care. Y'all mind your business. Wait, what was she doing? She was beating a dog with a bet.

Oh, wow. Okay. Yeah. Sorry. I knew we were talking about that. Yeah, we were in the middle of the story. I didn't know why we were talking about that. I didn't. Okay, sorry.

No, listen, I love when you do whatever you just did because it buys me some leeway. Like, if I forgets, you know. Okay. So, yeah, that nobody's found the dog. I just went off under this Blake grandpa thread. I got lost it. Don't mind it one bit. While you're on with this, Matt,

look up something called Sapphire Bay. Sapphire Bay is a one of these... A stripper. It's a renderings darling. It is a $1 billion development up at Lake Ray Hubbard in Raleigh. It looks like Dubai. It does. It does.

Oh, I remember this came out a while ago, right? Everybody just sets their rendering setting to Dubai, and then just like makes it north. Texas on the other slider. It's supposed to be this just absolute paradise for mixed use, residential, commerce, luxury. And if you've been up there, there's almost nothing there. There's like an apartment building. But you heard about this a few years ago, right?

There's what, Blake? No, there's a lot there. A lot of what? I mean, they have restaurants and they built up that pier. and it's a freaking nightmare on 30 all the time just because of all the people that live out in fate and Rockwall and Rowlett and there's only one way well there's 266 and 30 but 30's a nightmare

man I feel like this is about to make it so much worse I feel like it doesn't look anything like what they've said it's going to like that beach isn't there like fully developed no there's no beach well it's supposed to look like Miami well it's not it doesn't and now they're getting notices for defaulting on payments

to the tune of actually the specific numbers in here but the project been stagnant for far too long according to the city they want to take action that will spur progress which means noticing you that publicly you're not paying your bills they have not responded to comment

a request for comment this feels like it's from the makers of giant wave pool oh yeah we've got to have a wave pool the only thing this is missing is the indoor ski hill that was going to be up near alliance when I was growing up I remember that

the North Texas ski hill we have one of those in a mall here that kind of was a similar thing where it was being developed for like 20 years and went through six or seven bankruptcies but now they do have an indoor ski hill does it rule it looks pretty cool

I've not been on it, but I think it's like the second largest mall in America. It's right by the Giants and Jet Stadium. Man, that seems cool. I think I would be into that. But it was long, Rupert. I have heard of friends of friends whose parents lost money on the promise of a North Texas Disney World. You love it. We do have a new Universal Studios opening up here.

I don't know if you've looked into that at all, Blake, but that looks like a pretty cool. bit. Where? I think it's Grand Prairie or Frisco. It is Frisco? Okay, yeah. Does the fake parachute thing still happen?

Don't they have that? Up in Friscoe? I thought they had kind of a skydiving, but it's fake skydive. Yeah, they got a lot of bits. You're right. I do think that's still up there. The wind tunnel? Something like that.

Yeah, there it is. So I got really excited the other night when I saw Eric Johnson. sports mayor tweeting that he wanted to read or he wanted to hear a story or see a story about his resignation but it was behind a paywall so he couldn't

and I was like oh shit you think it was us? Of course I thought it was us but it wasn't it was the morning news and I don't feel like I'm in the wrong for this because I think if you're the mayor calling just paying for the local paper

a paywall is absurd Yeah. Like, what did, dude, come on. It's not on, you didn't have to sign up for a, like, PFF or something. It's, it's right there, but it's the paper. Well, he reiterated, not only online, with the, I'm not leaving. Do you see, everybody should be banned from using Wolf of Wall Street gifts? It's just such a fucking give up, but he's just tweeting about it now.

Like, I'm not going anywhere. I'm not running for anything, and I'm going to continue to serve our great city is mayor. How about when sports mayor leaves office and his legacy will be that he got the wings to move from Arlington to Dallas

but he lost the Mavs and the stars. Because it feels like that's going to happen. Yeah, the stars are gone. He may be gone before them but I mean when you read that Brad Albert's quote where he's like what do you think people are moving? It was basically he just copied and

pasted Micah's letter to the city of Dallas said goodbye yeah pretty much uh speaking of our friend from viewer mail grady he did point out to me i did the story about the california powerball winner who was buying up a bunch of properties from the uh i think altadena area fires that the i did not include the detail because i didn't know it he is not giving that land away he is selling it at market price. He's just keeping it from being gobbled up by like Black Rock. Okay. And then people being just absolutely priced out of being able to get their house bag.

That feels like it's still a good deed. So you know my neighborhood is filled with real olds, like tons of olds. And like I don't know where they all have their money either, but they're doing well. So when one, you know, there's a bunch of like we got a half acre lot. There's a bunch of, though, like, multi-acres. Like, this is six acres here, 10 acres here. And anytime one of those real olds, like, dies or something, their kids are going to want to sell it to local developer.

So they kind of band together and will even, like, buy it together just to keep, and then sell it to a single person, someone who they review and make sure they're going to just live there on one person, you know? I mean, I could see pros and cons. Like, I could see, though, like, that feels like. like you could get like discriminatory with housing on one side of it. But on the other, anything that keeps like all of our residential real estate from being owned by one company. Yeah.

Feels like a good thing. What, uh, I feel like you're too smart for this, but, uh, where does your mind go whenever you, you win the $2 billion power ball? you do a people's policy project at the pyramid at the bass pro shop in memphis and hire the cracker barrel guy or something have you ever bought a lottery ticket i wouldn't expect you to have done that no no i've only gambled one time in my life actually and that was on uh betting on whether Biden would issue an order um a forgiving student debt and did you happen to know anybody that might have a if i had really good information on that um and uh yeah so it was successful it was it was very underpriced it was a priced at 50 50 and

it was 99% from the information i had so yeah i bet so yeah do you ever what do you like i don't know we all us lemmings plugged into the matrix i'm i have thoughts on what i do do but you're what do you think i mean i just put it in the you know index funds just like you would your retirement or whatever and then live off the return i feel like that's that's the first move um you know i'm not trying to spend it down if you've got two billion dollars you're getting a five percent return on that i mean geez 100 million a year whatever whatever that is yes i understand but how would you soup things up in your life it's got to be something no i don't really like spending that much, you know. I'm content with what I have. I might clean the house a little bit

better. Maybe hire someone to get all the garbage out of here. New solar panels? Yeah, I'm even the ones we got are working, so for now. Oh, yours aren't? It's just a hit, miss. It's been a rough ride? It's not, yeah. But you've banked a lot of benefit from those things, a lot. I know, but when they go out, There is no hurry to get them fixed by anybody because they've made their nut on it. Because of the left. Because of Biden's pin or something. Who knows, man? I don't know.

Sounds like Matt's never had a problem. When they're on, they're great, and I would recommend it. But I've gone a couple months without them. Oh, I know what it is. Have you looked to see if the sun was out when they weren't working? I think the sun was out. Okay. One company said the squirrel chewed the wiring.

I had another company come out and reset. it and it worked it's just so shady well maybe community mechanical needs to start doing that oh i could see that all right there's your news let's uh let's move along here honestly though he's i get where he's coming from i'm just content because like and subscribe that's a good news i bought something that i would have thought i needed lottery money to buy 20 years ago which is a homemade ice cream maker and on the strength of brunuch's tips i I am absolutely crushing the game. Oh, it's so good.

I'll send you some more recipes. Please do. That I've been cooking up. The jello packet is what it is. Yeah, that gets you the consistency without the calories. So good. Yeah. Let's see here.

Let's do from some viewer mail birthdays real quick. We have, let's see, this, this, and this. Okay We have Good Evening to the Furberger, Fuhr, and Jake. It is the one and only great decapitator and my wife, Anna Kay's Brandon Carr birthday, October 15th. The big three-nine. We know Anna Kay?

We do. She is a vet, veterinarian. And she did teach us that. She has had to cut off the head of a dog and send it to Austin. Yeah, that's what they do, man. Her leaders are Dan's Road Trip Hotel Pay-Pervue Bill, Jake's Aggie Opinions, and Blake's Sartorial expertise. We need a verdict on our new baby nephew name, Oscar Callum.

I like that quite a bit. Go stars fuck Nico from Pedro. Yeah, Oscar's a really cool name. Dear Pioneer De La Panocha I'm writing to congratulate my twin brother Kyle Reinhart on 30 years of life Longtime Dan and Jake listeners from Denison Yellow Jackets

For those not familiar Keep driving north on 75 until you hit exit 69 Let's see Is that the city? that likes to tell you that Dwight Eisenhower is from there, and he just kind of like was there for a little bit? If you're a city, you have

to kind of look for something. Yeah, they don't have much else. What are we? What is Wiley? How do you think we ended up with a 9-11 memorial at a Tex-Mex restaurant and Grapevine? I mean, you're looking for something. As a request from me, I've tried searching

for the video slash audio of the Do you know what's not hard? Direct TV, but my searches have been to no avail. I've heard you all reference that recently and I lose my shit every time I'd enjoy a replay of that. Thanks for all that you did your body. Look who we have with us.

Inception. Should we find the time when Matt Brunig was playing it for his wife after we played it? Matt heard us play it and then it's not tough at all.

Took it to the Brunig's podcast. We'll play that in a second when Blake finds it. Dan, the dude that makes all the ladies super moist. It is the birthday D-L-L-S sports Fuhrer Ben Tebstock. I think it's Rebstock, but the R is next to the T.

Okay. I'm just, yeah, I'm just reading what it says here. Aside from his stances on alternative uses for a Bowflex, he is a righteous dude. Shadie would say, is his thing small? Sure, but he makes the most of it. I love you guys show more than Heppala's huge tease. Good Lord.

Just writing that out, huh? Oh, that's... City till I die, never smoked a square with Jake from B in Fort Worth. We have greetings box buster Dan, special Green Bay Micah birthday to the product of my high tea birthday present, Isabella. Like an honorary Jake name rate,

Isabella, Sophia Small. Damn, that's extremely powerful. ISS is a little... That's good. Ooh. Her heroes are Dan's roast twins, Jake's Godlike vape lungs and mom's breastfeeding milk bazookas. We will invite Blake and son to the next party because it's bound to be boring from Evan and Kansas City.

We have dearest Uncle Muff Muncher. I'd like to send a bladed birthday shout out to D.F. Sean Henry. His birthday was on the 14th. I was reminded of his birthday while moosing his wife last night. His leaders of the skydiving chief, Rob Chickering. V. Stiviano, a little juice for you, honey. Mike's Soroy in his 70s Porn Star look and Sarah Heppela's magnificent milksheds.

Never punt and legalize it from Barrett. And finally, greetings, Wom Raider. Please wish my wonderful wife, Lori, happy birthday. I can't wait for her to hear this. I can't wait to hear her excited reaction when she says, isn't he the jerk that I don't like? Her leaders are literally anyone or anything other than Dan. If you ever need help with propagating succulence, she's your gal from Adrian.

Damn. I think the women just fear you. Yeah. Your presence. They should get to know you. The magnetism. Right. The Riz.

Just an intimidating aura of domineering masculinity. Did you find the guy who was, he was a Philadelphia 76ers show, I think this was. and I think this was either the day before 9-11 or it was right around 9-11 and he was just talking about, you know, the horribleness of 9-11 and Matt Brunig played this for his wife on the fabulous podcast, which is almost weekly, The Brunigs. But, you know, it is what it is. I shouldn't say that, no.

I shouldn't say that because I was minimizing it. Let's just say it was a tough time in our history. And tomorrow it's going to be an emotional day for a lot of us. I mean, the fact that you see kids 20-something now, never even knew their family members. You know, it's tough. But let me tell you something that's not tough.

Okay. Not tough at all. And I'm talking about direct TV, What? What? What? What? Does it sound familiar?

You got one device. You know what the next to screen your favorite. Oh, jeez. You sound like fake norm. I wouldn't pull this level of obscurity if it wasn't that high, high caliber. What happened there? Dude, it's at the forefront of my brain. No matter what somebody says to me, I'm like, that's tough.

But you know it's not tough. God, that's good. Community Mechanical Presents on this day in history. bring it home so Thursday October 16th on this day in 1793 during the French Revolution Marie Antoinette she was the queen of France was beheaded yep unheaded she had a head now does not have a head yeah I was thinking about that the other day I just think we always need to be reminded that people used to go by like the cotton bowl to go watch executions like not that long ago. So when you're thinking about humanity, it was the last one in France, like in the 70s?

There was a lot, yeah, we did. A lot closer. And it wasn't America. Like Picasso was definitely watching. He released a statement. Picasso had a McRibb, like, at an execution. He was upset because he was still in line. He missed it.

This is the day in 1968. God damn fees on all these executions. tickets you know all those fees they're just owned by a company in Saudi Arabia you know American athletes on this day

in 1968 athletes Tommy Smith and John Carlos sparked controversy at the Mexico City Olympics by giving black power salutes during a victory ceremony after they won gold and bronze medals there was a cool white guy there too they're like we're good dude we don't need your help

in this day in 1976 Tony Franklin was an Aggie kicker he hit two field goals 64 and 65 yards in a victory over Baylor on this day in 1987 must have been the K-balls though this is the day that 18-month-old Jessica McClure is rescued after being trapped

for 58 hours in an abandoned well in Midland, Texas. You know the Jessica McClure story after this, Matt? No. Didn't she get a lot of, she got a lot of, like, sponsor love? Well, she got, like, hey, when she turns 18, she's going to get this trust. And, like, people ran to give her tons of money. Yeah, people were putting money in a trust fund for her, which, when she turned 25 and 2011, she received donations from all over the world. Um, but her husband, maybe boyfriend at the idea, had like a scheme, I think, involving car washes he was going to buy or something, and they just, they lost everything.

Yeah. It's like, it's the story of someone who wins the lottery. A hundred percent is. And who's from West Texas. It worked out how you think it did. When you said sponsor love, I thought she'd be like in an iPhone commercial about a long lasting battery or something. Yeah, we should. That's not a bad idea.

Was she disabled or something? What happened? Why are people giving her money? She was just a baby and a well. It was like a national story. Yeah, I got, but okay, but she's fine now. Yeah, I know. But at the time, she was a baby and they were like throwing her money then.

You can't get her out of the well. Maybe we can help her later. Yeah. It is a weird instinct. I wonder how the baby and the well story would be treated in today's day because this was like a national story, like huge. Everybody was watching it. Yeah.

Like the Today show, probably spent three hours on it. Every morning show, you know? Does Trump go to the well? I do have some news on her. If it's in Texas. Yeah. Otherwise, they like brick it up. You said it was 1987, right?

Yeah. She was 18 months old. Which makes her what? Well, also, like a lot of women in West Texas, at 38 years old, Jessica McClure is a grandmother. Oh, my God. What? Yeah. Huh.

Huh. Yeah. This is the day in 1991, a man named George Hennard, drives his truck through a window of the Luby's cafeteria in Killeen, opens fire on a lunch crowd of over 100 people. He killed 23, injured 20 more, and then killed himself. Yeah, that's a historic, I don't know the word,

but I definitely knew that story growing up. What was the motive? The food was cold. It is pretty gross. Yeah, you don't run into a lot of people who are even willing to lie to you about Lubies. the best they can tell you is you can get kind of what you want

that's all they can tell you and on this day in 1996 soccer fans trying to squeeze into Mateo Flores National Stadium in Guatemala City stampeded killing 84 people but of course they're only soccer fans now this is October 16th

this day in dumb zone history guys remember when you had COVID in 2020 was this the week I should look at my steps that week i bet they were pretty low horrific i don't know if it'd be worth it was the worst going back through the audio because you two you all too were just so out of it i would do the show laying you would lay down in breaks yeah yeah it was it was awful anyway we were down in that

and then a couple years ago jake was sick after coming to brooks's birthday party so this is just when y'all get sick i guess not anymore bro you all teed up dude peptides i 2020 what day? I eat low-fat protein ice cream. October 8th maybe was the day that I don't know if you stood up. Very low. Yeah, 3,000 steps a day that month. No, I don't get sick anymore.

I follow the Brunig diet nutrition plan and I feel better than ever. We're getting low 2,000 that week. This must be my COVID week. I don't think I'll ever get sick again. Yeah, on October 8th, I have Dan laid on the floor after our meeting. I don't think Matt got to see this because he was just a floating head for all of our lawyer meetings. But Dan would lay down during lawyer stuff too. And I'm like, ah, this is not inspiring confidence at all.

I ended up killing. He had some back issues going on there. He killed it. But there were times. You just have to know your, yeah. Sure. When it's game time, I was there. Just Wednesday and Thursday, I might not.

You're limited in practice, but you'll go. Birthdays today, famous people, Brian Schottenheimer, 52. Nepo, baby. Bryce Harper, 33. If they beat the commanders, will they say it was for his birthday? Give him the ball in the locker room. Happy birthday coach. It's possible.

He gets every game ball for every win. For some reason. Sue Byrd is 45. Sue Byrd was voted as one of the top 15 all-time WNBA players. Sue Bird's averages for her career. Man. Okay. One of the top 15 all-time players in the entire history of the league.

It's a shorter game by... It's a 10 minute quarter. They play two seasons, though, so the numbers get watered down. She averaged 11 points, five assists, and two rebounds. pounds per game. Dominant. Tennis player Naomi Osaka is 28. Legit dominant.

By the way, I'm going to follow up on the Luby's shooting and wrecking your car there because maybe you knew, Matt, but I didn't know this when you said, what was the motive? Like, I just remember the dude had snapped. It was, uh, people said like this guy was going crazy. On October 15th, the day before, he was speaking to his. mother on the phone. Later that evening, while eating a cheeseburger and fries, he had a sudden outburst of raged as he watched television coverage of Clarence Thomas's confirmation hearings.

When an interview with Anita Hill came on, he just went off, said the manager of the restaurant. He started screaming, you bitch, you bastards open the door for all the women. So there was a motive, and it was Anita Hill somehow. He thought Clarence Thomas was being railroaded by Anita Hill. I guess, and that got him mad enough to kill 23 people with the local Lubies. Yeah. So there's your answer. Cordell Stewart is 53.
