for details. So in a good pocket, he has a lot of good potential. Yeah, if he gets blocking and he's got guys who can run the patterns, he's not a guy who panics. He's made some bad throws, but he made some good throws. So his arm is just decent. The question now is, this is what becomes interesting, and this is what we're now going to be focusing on, Josh, for the next couple of months, is do you trade Nick Foles as part

of a package to go up to number six together? Because it's no longer a just let's just throw something against the wall and see if it sticks thing. This is now moved up to New York where their fans are now wondering what the Jets are going to do with this number six pick. I would without question do the deal in that case. If the deal is, listen, you got to give up Nick Foles. You have to give up two first round picks I'd go with.

I would add two on top of swapping the picks. The first round for this year. I absolutely would. I have no issue with that. I would do it because you need a franchise quarterback in the NFL. And I don't think Foles is going to be that guy. And we don't know about Mariota, but why not take a shot? By the way, people are suggesting that you're already drunk and I suggest that they're wrong.

You are not drunk. Oh, stop that. You're not even close. Not even remotely close. The only thing is I haven't had a lot to eat today so downing three beers in a grand total of 15 seconds probably wasn't the best decision but I haven't eaten a lot. I had a roast beef sandwich. I'm about to get a chicken parm here just to you know put a little something in my stomach.

Chicken parm, it tastes so good. Absolutely, so that's why I'm doing that. And by the end of the night we'll do one more. We'll see if I can break 3.77. Now Bruno the Tank Engine is checked in on Twitter. He says, I sure hope for Josh's sake that Bill Cosby didn't buy that beer tower for you guys. Hi-yo! Now you see, that's just wrong.

Yeah, that's... That's just wrong. Slightly. And final question. Someone once asked me, gun to your head, Nickelback or Daughtry, who would you go see? Oh, Nickelback! And he says, Luigi says, I told him pull the leap and trigger. Daughtry seems like he'd be a nice guy though. Yeah you can't rip Daughtry, chicks dig Daughtry. I think he's fine, I have no problem with Daughtry,

I wouldn't go see him in concert, I think he's coming to the Borgata as a matter of fact. Daughtry yeah, he's got a big following, he's one of the guys, he didn't win American Idol right? I know it was a big controversy. Was he like a runner up? No he wasn't even runner up, I think he came in like sixth, it was a big controversy. Was he like a runner-up? No, he wasn't even runner-up. I think he came in like sixth or seventh or something like that. And he's probably had a better career than the people who win it, right? That's what happens with the shows. Sure.

Daughtry, I remember, like all of his stuff sounds the same, right? Well, I never saw it coming, should have started running long, long time ago. Wait a minute, you know Daughtry's songs? I know that one song. I got over you. That's Daughtry, that's my Daughtry's song? I know that one song. I got over you. That's Daughtry, that's my Daughtry, you like that? I'll drop some Creed on you later. No, I don't want any Creed.

I don't want any Creed. Nobody wants any Creed. No Creed. No Creed. Creed, not Creed. Bill, how you doing buddy? Hello Bill. Bill's doing good man.

Good. Hello. Hello Bill. Bill's doing good man. Good. Hello. Hello. I just want to tell you guys, Josh and Tony, you guys were the best man. I'm going to tell you what man, I really enjoyed listening to your show. You guys are very entertaining and I really haven't any sports talk right now. I'm a little upset with the Eagles' fit this week but I just love listening to you guys. You guys are great, man.

And why is that, Bill? Yes. Why is that? Why do you enjoy the show? Is it because of the hijinks? It's the way you guys do it. You've got the entertainment. I mean, the beer drinking and you know, just, you know. I drink beer for those who can't drink beer right now because they're stuck in traffic. They've had a hard week. Shady McCoy got traded. It snowed eight, nine inches. You're shoveling snow. You're going to work. Your kids are off of school, so you have to find an opportunity to have a babysitter.

I drink for you. And you don't have a beer tower installed as a standard operating equipment in your dashboard in your car. Correct. And if you did, you shouldn't be doing that anyway because it's not good for you. You know, you're exactly right. I'll tell you what. You know, you guys are great. I love listening to you and keep up the great work, man, because I'll be a true listener.

Thank you, sir. And you guys have a great weekend. I love you guys, man. I love you, Bill. I love you too, man. Seriously. And I'll tell you who else I love, and mean this I love Flyers fans man. They're good people I met so many people at the game that are just fans of the show. They walk up judge At the carnival too. There's a ton of people there and it's because Flyers fans kind of feel left out because they don't and they're not

I say fringe But I'd say in terms of overall talking on radio stations the Flyers are down at number four of the big four teams here And I think the fans feel kind of neglected, but we don't neglect hockey fans No, we don't Josh is going to New Jersey. How many of people are going to New Jersey on Sunday morning? I also braved the damn elements last night to go to that's right You were there and you didn't even care that they were giving out free hot dogs and pretzels I had no idea they were giving out free hot dogs or free tickets. You went out and bought your tickets. I did well Actually, no, you're gonna copy. Yeah

I have bought tickets before and I will buy tickets to this devils game You're not gonna call Joshua Harris the owner of the Philadelphia 76ers even can hook you up since you're a big Sam Hinkie devil. Hey, I don't care to go to flyer to a Sixers game No, I know but they own the devil. So you get this true Call Sam Hinkie said hey, you know your other club in your vast empire of properties that you purchased to flip eventually The New Jersey Devils hook me up. I'm actually that's actually good I bet if they're listening or with the Sixers, we know they are Make sure you take care of Josh so we can go up there to the Metal Lands.

Actually, it's a Prudential Center in Newark, right off the train station. Just walk right across. It's right at the train station, basically. You walk across a bridge. Yeah, get Josh Harrison on the phone. Actually, and the Flyers people were really nice to me last night, and I appreciate that. And I told them I'm their good luck charm. I told them, and listen, I'll buy tickets. Now, were you in a suite or were you there with the real people? Dude, I don't... I sat in a suite once at a hockey game there because it was a radio station deal football games I don't sit in the suite baseball games. I don't care for sweets. You know what I do I sit with the average guy because I'm an average guy. Look at me. I come to do a remote I'm wearing a hoodie and jeans and a pair of

Timbs that's what I do. This is the life. I'm about I don't care about your life. I'm not about that life I'm about the life of hanging out with my boys my peeps my fans my people some guy took a creepy voyeuristic picture of me at The game last night praying Praying to the hockey gods the players would bail out and get the two points. Well, we saw to another overtime shootout Let's do this. We'll talk with Mike here and I'll find you the picture. How you doing Mike? Hi guys, I just wanted to talk about Nick Bowles for a minute. Alright. I just want to know why people want to mess with success. I mean he's 14 and 4 as a starter. Am I right? I think he's 14 and 6.

I think it's 14 and 6, something like that. Yeah, I mean it's not like he's doing bad and last year with the banged up line, I mean I don't really see why people don't want to give him like another year. Because you have an opportunity potentially to get a guy who seems to be a perfect fit for the system that your head coach is running. And ultimately, it's not about boy, I think we're doing OK or we're doing fine. It's about we need to win a Super Bowl because Donovan McNabb did more than fine. And what happened to Donovan McNabb? Never won a Super Bowl. And he's hyper criticized. People want and what happened to Donovan McNabb never won a Super Bowl and he's hyper criticized

people want to see the ring they want to see the Lombardi so I'm all about taking chances man that's all so true I mean like I'm on the fence about the Marriott a thing like if they do it I mean great I'm gonna support him but I mean I'm I'm a full guy so and that's and that's quite all right Mike and thank you but I'm a false guy too but if quite alright Mike and thank you, but I'm a full guy too But if you you know there's nothing we could do chip Kelly's not gonna take a poll of radio callers and say all right I'm gonna decide based on the number of calls that Josh and Tony taking a five-hour show Whether or not I should do this or whether I should keep falls and and give up on Marriota or go get him

I hear you go. This is the picture of me This voyeuristic picture of me at the Flyers game. So it's somebody not even like the next row over, the next section over. Yeah. So this is one of those stalker pictures, right? It's like he didn't tell you he was taking you, right? Oh no. And you're sitting there and you've got your hands up in the face like you're crying.

It's like you're praying, but the tips of your fingers are at your nose level. So you're not down in the real praying position, which is around chest level above the breastplate. Yes, that's where people really player or a little below I was in I was in thought there because of the now is that after Delzado score to tie the ball I think that's how you refer to it as a ball game You know, I don't think it is I think at that situation they hadn't tied it yet There's about ten minutes to go and thinking oh, they're gonna lose to the Blues They're gonna be screwed when they lose to the Blues and then it's done. It's going to be done. And then I was going to be in, you know, it was going to be a waste of a Saturday because the hockey

game wasn't going to matter. Now the hockey game matters a lot. By the way, Vegas, according to Richard George on Twitter says the Eagles getting Marriot now plus 200 in Vegas. If you want to bet on it, would you, would you take that plus 200? Plus 200 on what? That the Eagles get Mariotta. Oh God, yeah, that's great, great value. Absolutely. You put a hundred bucks, you win 200 bucks, that's great value. I'm surprised it's plus 200. I think that's fantastic value. I would probably lay $10 on that bet if I were in Vegas tonight covering a fight.

Then again, I bet on a game last night for an over where one of the teams scored seven points in the first half. So now you're officially eliminated as the daddy Mac and making no because I the one I didn't mention on the air was the second game of the night it was Marist and somebody and I bet on the over and I hit that so I was batting 500 for the Mac last night hi JR what's up what's up what's up man Josh, what's up? Josh, hey Tony, what's up? What's up, man? I'm chilling on my way to work. I've been listening to Tony for a while since he was at the Everett station and everything. We ain't gonna talk about that. Much love to you, much love to Ms. Robin and everything.

Josh, you just made a comment. I just want to give you a shout out. When you said you at work right now, you got your hoodie on, your towns, your jeans, that's my life, cause that's the way I go to work too. I just want to give you a shout out, bro. You earned a whole lot more respect from me. I already respected you, but you just earned a lot of respect from me, bro. How about that? A hoodie and tits.

If you were here right now, he would actually chug a beer with you, man. I was about to say, chug a beer for me, but you get off the air and take a shot for me too. All right, JR, you're the man, appreciate you. You know what, do you want to do one more of these bad boys? Do you think I can break 3.77? No, I want to make sure you get safely

to the University of Pennsylvania, Polestra for tonight's Columbia Penn Quakers and Columbia Lions at the Polestra, where Josh in it. Somebody just tweeted, Josh at the Penn game tonight. Come on, three more beers before 6 p.m. so he's saying that you need six beers to go watch a Penn Quaker Columbia Lions well Ivy League basketball game at the Mecca the palestra well we've already done three by we I mean me and we'll do one one I've only done one you did half

let's get real here you did half you did half I've done I've done enough for both of us and a small country I've done enough for. We'll do one more before we get out of here as we celebrate the archaic liquor law slowly but surely. And the Matty Young Brewery people we saw a couple weeks ago saying that the WWE and ECW legend, the Sandman, wants to challenge Joshua beer drinking contest. I would love to. Doesn't he break the, doesn't he smash the cans on his head without the sandman i have a drink it i have who's the guy that would smash the can and then drink

it well that's a stone cold isn't it's the star no no no he'd smash it he would drink it he would just drink he would pop them and then drink them but some guy would smash the beer can against his head all right jamie cue up the flyers goal horn we got somebody that wants some flyers talk here at 539 on the NSN Bruno Show. Warren, how you doing? Welcome back, Tony.

Thank you. Hello. Josh, what about the music last night though? Was it good? Was it cracking? Yeah, it was fine. Okay. So what's the deal with the Flyers and the bolt-ended coach?

That is like the strangest thing. It's three quarters away this season, the Fire and your bolt-ended coach. It's not a big deal. It's a big deal. It's a big deal. It's a big deal. It's a big deal. It's a big deal.

It's a big deal. It's a big deal. It's a big deal. It's a big deal. So what's the deal with the fires and the boat pending coach? That is like the strangest thing It's three quarters away this season firing your boat pending coach I don't know what's going on. That's a good question. I don't know what's going on there No idea. I don't know how it's gonna affect anything either. I'm still only two weeks into this After the game No idea Rob Zep demand that he he be kept up here and kept in the rotation and started every single night my name steve mason was very good last night they had the one shot really wasn't his fault guy went top shelf where mama keeps the peanut butter went top

shelf but outside of that he made some big time saves in that game all right let's see here Alright, let's see here. Dan, how you doing? Hello. Hey, Dan. Hey, how's it going guys? Good. Great show. Thanks. You know, I was freaked out. I've been listening to you guys for a month or so.

And you get this image in your head, you know, what you look like. And I had Josh as looking kind of like a young Chris Elliott no I did not look like Chris Elliott I know you know I had mr. Bruno you know I had like a kind of a hairy Italian guy you know not clothes a lot of jewelry I saw a picture you guys and I never wear any jewelry I never wear rings necklaces piece I don't have any piercings. I do have a Prince Albert, but that doesn't count. I know, I hope that it ruins everything for me. I enjoyed what I was already thinking about. Anyway, you guys got a great show.

I was just thinking, I'm 63 and I can't remember running quarterback. I remember Fran Tarkenton and all these scrambling quarterbacks. To me, the quarterback position is so hard that if you have that extra option where you think, oh, maybe I should run, maybe I should run, you don't look for that extra receiver. And I just think it makes the position harder.

And it's a tough position to begin with. What do you guys think? Oh, very fair. And if you look back at guys who are considered system or mobile quarterbacks in college, none of them become Superbowl winners for the most part. Like you might say, well, what about Russell Wilson? Russell Wilson went to Wisconsin,

which was a much more pro-style offense. So it's a risk. And Russell Wilson uses the ability to scramble around to buy himself time because of his size and he can get away from guys And he rolls he always rolls out. You know left or right. He doesn't normally stand in the pocket But he's got a big arm He's got big hands and he moves around and he plays really well But I wouldn't call him would you call it he has the ability to run?

But I don't think he's a run first throw later kind of guy. No, he's a quarterback who can run I do have to tell you that you can receive $100 off any window and $200 off any door Call the experts at Gaida door and window today and one eight seven seven go Gaida or visit go GUI da Calm let's get one more in here before we have to move on we will talk with Lou Lou. You're on WIP. How are you? Good How are you? Let's say he came out and used the same caliber as Joe Black, and we still don't know. Who would be late with that? Moving forward. Now I understand, you got Marcus Meredith coming up,

and Nicky B, he can do all-world, he's Chip Kelly's boy, and everything else is fine. But the thing we're still in the predicament, and let's say he goes to New York, and he ends up having another great season. What would have happened there? Then the Jets would have to resign him and not worry about drafting a quarterback. You know, so if the Jets would have to resign him and not worry about drafting a quarterback

You know so if the Jets get him if they do trade Nick Vols as part of a package to move up to get Marriott at six then they're rolling the dice, but they only have him for one year They would be in the same position the Eagles would be in at the end of the year Do you sign him long term or do you go out and get another quarterback and draft the Jets would be stupid? They'd be dumb to not try to pillage Chip Kelly and get everything they can out of him and give up that pick. Because I don't think Mariota's gonna be a great NFL quarterback,

but I'm curious to see if he would be inside this system. So I think it's a very low risk move if I'm the Jets and I trade and I pick up maybe three, four, five picks and a quarterback that you have on a one year, basically rental basis. I think it's a perfect situation. All right, 888-729-9494. We're live at Chickies and Pete's.

It's a different Columbia, but it'll be, I don't know what kind of basketball game it's going to be, but- Now, you're going to be throwing, did you bring a roll of toilet paper so you can throw it out after Penn scores the first basket? Do they still do that? I don't think so. Oh, I don't know. They used to do that over there. I don't think so. By the way, Miss Robin came over here, so she's very impressed with the fact that I handled that in 3.77 seconds.

It is. It's impressive. Now, some people will find it to be, you know, not very copacetic. But when you're talking about people in bars, because everybody has to brag about stuff and then they don't. talk to talk walk the walk Jimmy Johnson line remember that if you're gonna talk to talk you gotta walk the walk You talk the talk and then you went beyond walking the wall. I backed that thing up as well. Yes, you did What's funny is somebody tweeted miss Robin and asked if I would be a twink a bear or an otter now what? I agree Jamie. I'm a total bear. You'd be a twink actually Jamie. A twink? Because a twink would be like, is like a hairless type of guy, right? Small,

you're gonna be smaller, but generally speaking like twinks are smaller and like hairless. Oh, I'm a total bear. There's no question about that. I don't know what an otter is. What's an otter? Oh wait, Miss Robin found what an otter is. Hold on. Oh, an otter? In the gay world, an otter would be considered a thin gay male that is hairy and may or may not use a trimmer to shave. Well then you'd be an otter. I would be an otter? I think Tony's more of an otter. I'm not hairy though. A wolf. Well what's a wolf? Characteristically, a wolf is a gay male who is semi-hairy, muscular, lean, attractive and sexually... Okay, Tony, you're a wolf. Whatever.

Tony, you would be a wolf and I would be a bear and that's how it goes. These are the questions we get from people on Twitter on Ask Us Anything. Did somebody really ask that question? They did. That's what Ms. Robbins said. Now, I've heard the bear before, but I didn't know about the other... I never knew what an otter was. No.

I never heard the term. I mean, either. I just know twink and bear. I didn't even know Twink. That's a gay man. Are you a jock, otter, bear, or wolf? Well that's legit. I would guess I'm a power bottom is what they would call... Is that what they would call a power bottom? I don't know. I'm just going by stuff I've read on the internet. Okay. Alright. So anyway, you want me to do one more of these before we get out of here? You want to do one more? Are you gonna be able to make it to the palestra to watch the Quakers? Oh, absolutely

It's not driving though. No, no, and we're not recommending We're not recommending anyone do this. He is a trained professional ladies and gentlemen Do not attempt this when you're trying to leave a happy hour. Okay, all right Do me a favor really quick Jamie. Give me simply the best by or the best by Tina Turner because if I'm gonna do this I need my music. Oh is this what you this is what you drink to? Your walk-up song? My soul? Your chug down song? So my record right now is 3.77 seconds. I turn that up Jamie. Tony's gonna provide the play-by-play and I'm gonna try to beat 3.7 seconds

All right, here we go gladiators. Are you ready? I'm sorry Are you ready in three two one go he's underway he's halfway through Three seconds flat! That's number four. How many beers was that? Four! And you would think that he would start slowing down, but no, he has picked up the intensity. Wow!

He has not lost the intensity. What a day! And I got Tina, that's what I need. I need a Tina. Three seconds. I don't believe anyone. That's dumb. That's just dumb. I don't believe anyone in the Delaware Valley. All you tough talkers out there could even come close to that. Three freaking seconds! Flat. This is not fixed. And that was not a wind-aided three seconds. No, no it wasn't. What am I Tina? You know what, I'll tell you what I am. I'm simply the best.

Well, you can do that. You walk the walk after you talk the talk. Better than all the rest. Better than anyone. And don't forget, tomorrow night when you're drinking Beer Towers here at Chickies and Peas, to turn your clocks ahead, so you'll lose an hour of extra beer drinking. What a day three seconds

you top that. I couldn't do it in 30 seconds let alone three seconds. Alright so I'm going to the Palastra I'm gonna go see Penn and Columbia tomorrow I'm gonna go to Scanlan's my favorite bar in Manny Yonk. And watch the water and the brune. Big game big game so hopefully they're able to lock that one down, pick up a big two points. Now don't forget the big Union Open tomorrow at PPL Park. You gotta make a quick trip over there and say hi to the kids. I will not. I've got playoff push hockey to watch my friend. Alright, so we've been at Chickies and Pete's. Rob Ellis is up next. It's Innis and Bruno. It's 5.55.
