I would like to send my T's and P's to the Marino family prior to this conversation being released. An incredible interview with Dan Patrick, legendary broadcaster Dan Patrick, is right around the corner. He opens up about some things I've never heard before. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:01:01 It was an awesome interview. I enjoyed it a lot. It's 20 minutes of deep stuff. It's good. It floored me. I didn't see it coming. It really did. It hit home.
Starting point is 00:01:09 It really did. It did hit home. And the thing that I hit this weekend was my bookie's bank account. Sure, watching football is fun, but it's more entertaining when you have some action on the games. Guys, you've heard me talking about this for weeks. And weeks. And some of you are still on the sidelines.

If you're the kind of guy that likes to bet a little and win a lot, like playing the numbers on roulette or scratch off, you can create a big parlay. Patty Parlay almost hit this weekend. Dallas Cowboys becoming a

They are addicting, my friend. They are incredible. Gambling on the games is incredible. For a parlay, you just have to pick three teams or three bets to hit,
Starting point is 00:02:10 and if you hit all three, you could turn $100 into $600. That's not bad. If you could turn $250 into $4,000 if you do five, which I was mad. There's so much to bet on. Playoff, baseball, hockey, primetime fights, and more. Literally everything at MyBookie. But MyBookie is the one bet I know you'll be happy with all year.

Starting point is 00:04:18 We're so thankful for all of you. You're the absolute best. And now you're going to get a chance to listen to an incredible conversation with a legend. Hello? Hey, it's Dan Patrick. Oh, my God. You're the best. Listen to that voice right there.
Starting point is 00:04:31 It is. As soon as you said your name right there, everybody in here, you caught everybody's attention with that beautiful voice. I'm going to give you an intro, and we'll get right into it, all right? Okay. Thank you so much, Dan. You're welcome. Ladies and gentlemen, joining us via phone is a man that needs no introduction. When his voice hits the airwaves, babies stop crying in hospitals all across the country.
Starting point is 00:04:59 His voice is so damn smooth. You've heard him and seen him. He was on SportsCenter for a while. Made that show the number one show on TV for a long time. He was host of Football Night in America for a while. His daily show on radio gets rave reviews and awards at his simulcast on television. Ladies and gentlemen, the host of The Dan Patrick Show.
Starting point is 00:05:22 With he and the Danettes, Dan Patrick. I thought I didn't need any introduction. You know, there might be somebody who lives under a rock that might not have heard of the great Dan Patrick. Dan, how is life? You're still crushing this whole media game here, 30 years into the game. How is life? You're still crushing this whole media game here 30 years into the game. How is life? How is Dan Patrick? Everything's good. Everything's good.
Starting point is 00:05:49 I think people thought I was on suicide watch after I decided I wasn't going to do Football Night in America. So I had people checking in on me on Sundays to say, are you okay? I go, yeah, I'm fine. I'm surviving. Being on Football Night in America, I'm fine. I'm surviving being on Football Night in America. I'm actually watching games and Fantasy League and having beer. Dan, you broke up right there, Doran. Right after you said Fantasy League and beers,
Starting point is 00:06:25 it's almost like Football Night in America is attacking your phone right now. Everything's good, though. Everything's good. The daily grind that we have in this business, but I like to stay busy. I remember it was Brent Musburger and Bob Costas both wondered how I did it every day, and I said, I don't know how you don't do it every day because that's what we do as a sports fan, as somebody who does this for a living. I love the daily grind of following stories and interviewing, and I love the process. You're one of the best interviewers in the sports world. I mean, any time you get a guest in there, you have this ability of bringing out incredible
Starting point is 00:07:05 things and forming these relationships. You and Adam Sandler have become best friends, basically, from his experiences on the show. Who are some of the people you talk to that you've enjoyed hearing their story or people you feel like you got a chance that they opened up with you that you did not expect? I think anybody who's honest, that's what you want, because I always view it as I'm a conduit to the listener or the viewer. And if I'm doing my job, I can have my question get to an answer and then give that to the viewer or listener, because that's who you're serving. Dale Earnhardt Jr. probably surprised me as much as anybody when he started talking about his childhood and things that he had never talked about before publicly. And what stood out is, you know,
Starting point is 00:07:52 I just talked to him about growing up and he said, I remember watching my house burn down and I realized at the time all my toys were inside and then I had to go live with my dad. And so it kind of struck me with the honesty of it, but if you've ever been around Dale Earnhardt Jr., that's who he is. But just that, I think he said he was five years old or four years old, his house burns down, he lost his toys, and then he had to go move with his dad. And it kind of stuck with me of how refreshingly honest it was with something that was so painful to him and delivering it in that manner.
Starting point is 00:08:33 So all I want is somebody who, if you ask a question, you think you're getting an honest answer out of them. And that doesn't always happen, but when you do, then sometimes you have radio gold. So with that being said, OBJ, I guess, was very honest with his answers about the Giants, but he looks like a bit of an asshole when it comes out. So what is your thoughts on the whole? Because everybody in media, and I'm not saying you.
Starting point is 00:08:58 I said everybody there. That's a broad brush. Most people in media, though, want honest answers until they think that it's not the right thing to say. What do you think about the whole OBJ situation with Lil Wayne and the New York Giants? Well, I want honest answers, but that doesn't mean I have to like honest answers. I mean, there's a difference in that. If you give me honest answers, you're making my job easier. But that doesn't mean I approve of them.
Starting point is 00:09:24 You know, Jimmy Butler's keeping it real in Minnesota. Really? It didn't sound like he was keeping it real. How about you keep it real quiet and you keep it inside? You keep it in the locker room. You know, he made it public for a reason. I believe Odell Beckham Jr. made it public for a reason, and the fact that these two both feel like they, you know,
Starting point is 00:09:44 that this was the way to do it. Because you were being honest, quote-unquote being honest. You know, Jalen Ramsey assesses every quarterback in the NFL, and we go, oh, okay, he's being honest. Okay, was he being honest about his own quarterback? And the answer was no. How honest was he being with these other quarterbacks, or why was he so honest about them?
Starting point is 00:10:04 We sort of pick and choose when we go oh boy i love that or you know that's wrong i love the fact that these guys say stupid things sometimes but if i'm minnesota i don't want jimmy butler back uh odell beckham you just got your contract and now you're not sure if you want to be in new york or now you're not sure about eli manning you know toughen up a little bit there. And, you know, with Jalen Ramsey, you want to crush other quarterbacks and say guys are overrated, but be honest about Blake Bortles and then I'll buy into whatever else you
Starting point is 00:10:37 say. So I love it. I appreciate it, but I don't always approve of it. Do you have, when you're interviewing people, do you have set questions ready or do you let the conversation go however it goes? I like to have a starting point, but then I don't want you to, I never want to feel like you know what the next question is. And it does mean that I want to get you. I just want, I want you a little uncomfortable so you don't get into a pattern of, well, I know what this is going to be and I'm going to answer this question.
Starting point is 00:11:09 And even when somebody comes on the show, I don't like to, how are you? How are you? Good, good, good. How are you? I just, when you come on, it's like, I just want to dive in. I want to get right into it
Starting point is 00:11:22 and I want you to sort of forget that you're holding a phone and that I'm going to get you relaxed there. That's the key. I want you to forget that anybody's listening. I want to take away a little bit of that, and that's why it's really hard when you interview somebody on TV, because you've got a camera, you've got lights, you've got makeup got a tile, you know, all those things. But with radio, that's why I love radio. I'd never want to give up radio because I love that intimacy of my voice, your voice, and then let's paint a picture here for the audience. That's, that's the great challenge. That's the fun part. Let's paint a picture here. Then every Superbowl, you have the best setup in the city. Whenever it was Indianapolis, the Dan Patrick stage at the Victory Field, Indianapolis Indians place was absolutely incredible. Are you a part of all the planning of everything that happens with the Dan Patrick show, or are you there to perform,
Starting point is 00:12:16 and you've got other people handling business decisions? Well, it's got my name on it, and I have to have – I want to have input. We're planning our Super bowl open in a month we're going to shoot it for atlanta and so that's how far out we've been talking about it we've already been discussing our set in atlanta we've been discussing the set in minneapolis for the final four in uh in late March, early April. That's fun to be able to be involved in the process. I'm honored to be involved in the process. But, you know, it ultimately comes down to my comfort level of what it looks like,
Starting point is 00:12:58 how I can use that. Because in Indianapolis, as you know, we had a mini racetrack there. It was awesome. We had a basketball hoop, a golf simulator. We had a keg. There's just things that I like on set when we do it to let people know we're different than any other show, and that's what we pride ourselves in doing. But, yeah, I want to be involved in it. I was involved in every step of the way with the build-out of the studio, camera angles, the memorabilia that's put up in the show, on the walls, all of that stuff.
Starting point is 00:13:31 So at times I should let others do it, but it's got my name on it, and I want it to be great. I can tell when the Danettes have messed with something on my desk. If they move something, and they'll do it just to fuck with me and i'll go who moved that but i do it because i just want them to know i have attention to detail i want them to have attention to detail as well but i i take a snapshot uh every every day when i leave i know exactly where things are but it's my stuff know, all this stuff that we have in the studio, you know, my wife wanted me to get it out of the house. So it's all mine, so I know what it is and know where it is and how it's positioned. And, you know, that's another fun part of it because I don't collect normal memorabilia.
Starting point is 00:14:20 Agreed. And that's just not how we think. You know, hey, let me get an autographed jersey. Agreed. That's just not how we think. Hey, let me get an autographed jersey. Or let me get the – we wanted the socks of the kid who scored the most points in a basketball game. He played at Grinnell.
Starting point is 00:14:34 I think he had 138 points. I said, send me your socks. So he autographed his socks. That's just – that's different for us. But that's the fun part of all of this. So you're OCD, you're analytical. us, but that's the fun part of all of this. So you're OCD, you're analytical. When you left the machine, the mothership and started doing your own thing, were you nervous? You know what? I think the biggest thing, Pat, and you know this because you make a decision. Everybody wants to know how you could make that decision, why you made that decision. But ultimately, I listened to my wife, and she just said something so simple.
Starting point is 00:15:11 I was going to sign a new five-year deal at ESPN, and I had been there 18 years. So it was just like, why would I leave ESPN? And then I started to think, am I really enjoying it? Am I afraid to leave ESPN because people say, why would you leave ESPN? And then I started to think, am I really enjoying it? Am I afraid to leave ESPN because people say, why would you leave ESPN or did you get fired? And that morning when I'm going up to sign that contract, my wife said, you know, the kids are all going to be grown up and out of the house when you're done with the contract. And I, I just brushed it off. I just said, well, you know, I'll see him, you know, and my schedule and, you know, all these things.
Starting point is 00:15:46 And I got up there and I sat down with my boss and he said, all right, what are you going to do? Take it or leave it? I said, and my wife's words came right into my head. And I said, I'm going to leave it. And he said, okay, I'll get Danielle to write up the contract. Wait, what? So then I, like I said it, so I was like, now you got to sound like you really mean it. I go, yeah, I'm going to,
Starting point is 00:16:11 I'm going to leave it. And I called my wife. I walked outside and I said, I said, hon, I'm, I'm coming home. She goes, okay. I said, no, I'm coming home for good. And she goes, okay. I said, hon, I'm, I'm going to leave ESPN. She goes, okay. I said, hon, I'm going to leave ESPN. She goes, okay, we'll sell the house if we have to. Started crying. That's awesome. Like she understood it better than anybody. Like, I don't care what your job is or what money you make. You need to be here every day because I was working crazy hours and I have four kids. And I just remember driving home, and I got home.
Starting point is 00:16:47 I pulled in the driveway, and my youngest, Molly, was nine at the time, and she came out, and I thought, oh, it's so sweet. She's coming out. She's going to say, Dad, we're glad you're home. Then she says, Dad, should I always be honest with you? And I'm thinking, go ahead, honey. Tell me you love me. Tell me you love me. Tell me. Like, should I always be like, even if it hurts somebody's feelings?
Starting point is 00:17:10 I said, well, you should always be honest with somebody. And she goes, you've got a booger in your nose, Dad. And I said, oh, okay. And then she went inside. And so I'm thinking, what the hell is going on? So I walk inside. It's silent. All four kids at the dinner table.
Starting point is 00:17:29 And then my son goes, are we supposed to be celebrating? And I said, hell yes. And they started banging on the table. It was loud and started screaming. And it was wonderful. Until like a month later when I'm at home by myself with no job and nobody's there. And I'm going, what the hell did I do? That's the biggest mistake of my life. But you know what? I did it. I listened to the right person at the right time for the right reasons. And that's
Starting point is 00:17:57 the best thing I ever did. So even if I didn't succeed after ESPN, I did succeed because I was listening to the most important person in my life tell me about life. And I was so blind to it because I was a TV star and I was so, so oblivious. Holy hell. What a beautiful story right there. So you're sitting at home for a month, stay at home, dad, unemployed bum with four kids. And then the idea is, okay, I'm going to create my own team. I'm going to create the Dan Patrick show. I talk to people about what would happen if I leave. I talked to some people in Chicago and a radio guy, Jimmy DeCastro, and he had reached out before and he said, look, if you ever leave, you let me know. And I didn't really know him. And then I thought, well, okay, I'm curious about that.
Starting point is 00:18:47 And then I wondered, could I do something that was modeled after Howard Stern where I could have my guys handpicked be there with me? And they're sort of the studio audience, but they're coworkers. And we could have conversations. Because, as you know, there are times when you just go, I just tired of hearing my voice. Yes. I just, I, you know, I don't have a hot take. I don't have any of that nonsense, but I love having a conversation. And I said, I'll do it if I can do it this way.
Starting point is 00:19:19 So we started in my house in the, in the attic. We converted two bedrooms, made a radio studio and the Danettes came every morning. My wife would be there cooking breakfast for my kids. They'd get them off to school. She'd be in a bathrobe. I'd wake up, brush my teeth, go upstairs, and we were just doing the radio show. And it's the best thing I ever did because it brought us so close together that they knew we were in for a fight because I left a place that, you know, I was on 300 radio stations and I was doing sports
Starting point is 00:19:51 and I mean, I had everything that you needed. And then all of a sudden I was an underdog and we started out with 12 radio stations, but they understood that we're in it together, and whatever rewards we have, I'll share. And so I'm forever indebted to the Danettes, because they took a chance. You know, two of them were at ESPN at the time. And, you know, McLovin worked at Sports Illustrated, and Paulie was working with Tony Stewart on his radio show. And so they had jobs and families and in some cases kids. But I said, look, I will not fail.
Starting point is 00:20:30 And then when we weren't sure about payroll, it got, you know, we were nervous because I was nervous because we didn't think we were going to make payroll. And I remember I didn't cash my check. I made sure the Dennetts cashed their checks. And that's when I said to my wife, I said, I think we're in trouble here. And I'm sitting outside the bar that I would go to. And I called up DirecTV. I didn't even know who to, I just said, you know, can you direct me to somebody in sports? And they direct me to Chris Long. I said, do you know who I am? He says, yes.
Starting point is 00:21:06 I said, would you be interested in buying my radio show and making a simulcast? And he said, yeah. What kind of numbers? And I said, oh, holy shit. Well, sir, I just had a few beers. So I got him numbers, and then he came back and he said, all right, I'll buy it. And he lived up to everything that he said he was going to do. And we built the studio above the bar that I go to, Paulie and I go to, and he's been great.
Starting point is 00:21:38 He was great. He since left the company about a year ago, but everything we ever asked for he did. And because of that, you know, we're still doing what we're doing. But, you know, there were slim times when I'm in the attic. But man, it was like a clubhouse. And it was awesome. And I think the Danettes and I really became very close, became really, really good friends instead of just co-workers. Dan, I'll tell you this. I haven't said this publicly much,
Starting point is 00:22:09 but you're the blueprint for what I have done, really. My friends and I were doing my show from my basement for a while. Now we have a studio. Now we do this. And you and the Danettes were really the picture of what we were trying to be. And with that being said, if I ever reach half of what Dan Patrick has done, I will be very proud of my post-NFL career. I'm so thankful you joined us, Dan. Thank you so much, man. Well, and you should know those people that are there with you, that their value cannot be overstated and should not be overstated. And so any success that I receive, I try to share it with
Starting point is 00:22:43 the Danettes. Even if you mentioned Adam Sandler. You know, I told Sandler, I said, I jokingly said, I can't be, I can't do this movie with you in Toronto unless the Danettes go. And he goes, Danny, Danny, we'll fucking put him in the movie. I said, okay. Then I go back and I say to my boss, I said, well, you know, Sandler will put the Danettes in the movie. And they go, oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:23:12 So they've been in three movies now because I always, Sandler goes, Danny, you're going to use that line again? You can't do it? I said, yeah, yeah. And he goes, all right, all right. So he's put them in little roles there. But that's the fun part of it uh he he's been very generous and the danettes appreciate that as well and once again
Starting point is 00:23:31 if i can do something and they can be along with me that just makes for better stories on the air so uh i i wish you well pat uh we always appreciated your honesty you were fun you got it and uh not everybody gets it and uh i wish you luck in in uh moving this forward thank you so much dan i appreciate you i miss you on sunday nights i'm gonna be honest you're i miss you on sunday nights i don't get to catch the simulcast every single day with the but i miss you on sunday nights this season i think a lot of people did tariko does a fine job but a lot of people love him. Some Dan Patrick, I'm one of them. And we're so thankful you joined us.
Starting point is 00:24:08 Ladies and gentlemen, legend in the game, Dan Patrick. Thank you, guys. Thank you, Dan. Good luck with everything, man. Thank you, guys. All right. That was really good. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:17 Holy shit. That was real. That was unbelievable. A lot of stories. I was like, oh, that's us I had no idea Okay so I gotta call DirecTV And say hey can I talk to the sports I was like fuck
Starting point is 00:24:33 I was like fuck long left a year ago God damn it Big thanks to Dan Patrick man That was really cool Wow That was really cool of him That was awesome stories man I had no idea that he started such humble beginnings from there.
Starting point is 00:24:46 I just assumed he was right into something big. I thought so, too. I thought he won ESPN and then he left and did his own thing. I thought so, too. Turns out not. Wow. By the way, when he was talking about how he interviews people, he wants to get right into it and get them feeling relaxed.
Starting point is 00:24:59 They don't feel like they're on the phone. They're in a conversation. I feel like I did that to his motherfucker. a conversation? I feel like I did that to his motherfucker. It really sounded like he was talking about us there for a while.
Starting point is 00:25:10 It did. It was wild. I contacted him at one point and I was like, hey, bro. Hey, man. Is that how it went for you two? He was on 300 stations.
Starting point is 00:25:18 Yeah. He was on 300 stations before we were. But boy, if we get anywhere near the Dan Patrick show, I think we would all consider this quite a success. You were on 300 stations.
Starting point is 00:25:28 What's that? You were on 300 stations. I was on one station. No, the NFL is broadcasted on 300 stations. Oh, with a helmet on and only I had guest appearances. I guest appearances every once in a while when the offense wouldn't work out that well. But big thanks to Dan Patrick.
Starting point is 00:25:42 That was awesome. I'm very thankful. I'm very, very thankful. I've been on his show a couple times calling in and stuff like that but him coming on this one and opening up was incredible and i was very thankful i feel like i got him to open up a bit correct which is awesome uh this conversation you're about to listen to is next level when i say that you just go ahead and sit down buckle up and say goodbye to the rest of your morning afternoon or evening because you're about to go on a mental vacation of hilarity unlike anything we've done in a long time i'm very proud of the conversation we whipped out for an hour and 40 minutes basically we just
Starting point is 00:26:15 started ranting about the world and i think you're gonna enjoy it another thing i think you'll enjoy actually i think you'll love is the same thing that i love i love that dollar shave club has everything i need to look feel and smell my best what i love'll love is the same thing that I love. I love that Dollar Shave Club has everything I need to look, feel, and smell my best. What I love even more is the fact that I never ever have to go to a store. That's because one, DSC.

And big shout out to you, the listeners. I got just one thing to say before we roll into the, probably the greatest conversation on the internet right now. I would say we have the greatest conversation recorded on the internet today. I'd say that.
Starting point is 00:28:24 I think we can say that. Yeah. What you're about to hear is something that is truly magical. With that being said, it deserves a big moment. As Tony DeMotta said in a classic film, any given Sunday. Three minutes to the biggest battle of our professional lives. All comes down to today. And either we buy Thursday Bo boots from Thursdayboots.com
Starting point is 00:28:48 or we're going to crumble. Inch by inch. Play by play. If you find out life's this game of inches, so is football. On this team, we tear ourselves and everyone else around us to pieces for those Thursday boots. We claw with our fingernails for those Thursday boots because we know when we wear our Thursday boots, that's going to make the fucking difference
Starting point is 00:29:11 between winning and losing, between living and dying. I'll tell you this. In any fight, it's the guy who's willing to die in his Thursday boots who's going to win that inch. And I know if I'm going to have any life anymore, it's because I'm still willing to fight and die for that inch because that is what living is. The six inches in front of your face and the Thursday boots on your feet. Now, I can't make you do it. You've got to look at the guy next to you. Look into his eyes. Now, I think you're going to see a guy who will buy those Thursday boots with you. You're going to see a guy who will sacrifice himself for Thursday boots because he knows when it comes down to it, you are going to do the same for him. That's team Thursday, gentlemen. And either we heal now as a team or we will die as individuals. That's football,
Starting point is 00:30:01 guys. That's all it is. Now what now what are you gonna do just head on over to thursdayboots.com and pick yourself up a pair today handcrafted with the highest quality materials and sold it honest prices starting at just 149 including free shipping and returns a great pair of boots are only a click away because it's thursday every, even on any given Sunday. Yeah. Booyah. Shout out Thursday Boots. All right, let's get to this conversation.
Starting point is 00:30:29 I know you guys are ready to run through a wall for some boots. Red flags and alarms that are going off right now over in that building. Who? Pat McAfee wants to do what? They want to use one of our lotto machines. Oh, for what? Oh, they have a raffle. They want to look for the...
Starting point is 00:30:44 Oh, that's all they want, huh? You think all Pat McAfee wants to do is just pull out 20 numbers out of that fucking thing? There's some guy there like, no, he's going to rig it. He's going to rig the machine. He's going to rig the machine. He's going to put something in there.
Starting point is 00:30:55 I know it. We should get one of those ping pong girls. Shoots them out. Excuse me? Those little ping pong show, the ones that can spit them out? Oh, you're talking about the Vesuvius vagina? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:07 Oh, the old vagina Vesuvius. Why vagina? Not a terrible idea. Number 12. A little extra juice on that one. Congratulations with the 11th pick. Her name bubbles. Her name bubbles.
Starting point is 00:31:22 What's that from? Zack and Mary Make a Porno Oh that was filmed in Pittsburgh Was it really? Yeah I didn't know that I never watched it But I know that they filmed it in Pittsburgh
Starting point is 00:31:32 You watched it? A long long time ago It's a It's a pretty Very old movie Noticable in the movie They're at a Penguins game They talk about Roethlisberger
Starting point is 00:31:40 Nice Is it? Yeah What's the best movie ever filmed in Pittsburgh? Face Off. Sudden Death. Two Face. Sudden Death.
Starting point is 00:31:49 That's the one. Yeah. That's a good second off. Bruce Willis had a good one, too, where he was a cop on a boat in the river there in Pittsburgh. Fuck. Batman, probably, by the way. I would say Batman.
Starting point is 00:31:57 Heartbeat. When we were driving by, you were like, that was where Batman. I was like, oh, my God. That's history. What's the Tom Cruise one? The Steps. Yeah. John.
Starting point is 00:32:04 Jack Reacher. Jack Reacher. That was filmed in Pittsburgh? Mm-hmm's history. What's the Tom Cruise one? The Steps. Yeah. John. Jack Reacher. Jack Reacher. Dallasville and Pittsburgh? Mm-hmm. Nice. She's out of my league. The taxes that they were giving production companies was very, very, very generous. But it got cool for a little bit.
Starting point is 00:32:16 It's what happened with Atlanta right now. That's where they just shot Infinity War. I see a whole bunch of other movies are being shot in Atlanta. Should be happening in Indianapolis. Should be. Something to think about. Why wouldn't we? We don't like tax revenue.
Starting point is 00:32:28 Well, that's the thing. You don't get much of it. I know. You don't get much of it. But it is like... But it brings in extra shit. We don't normally get it anyway. We're getting, what, 5% more of 100% of something that we normally get 0% of.
Starting point is 00:32:42 So why not? Yeah. You know what I mean? I know. That's like what with the agents conversation I've been having. You know? They're like, yeah, we take 15%.
Starting point is 00:32:49 I'm like, yo, that's a lot of fucking money. And then they're like, let's just assume that that money we're getting you though would have never happened without us. And I'm like, oh yeah. So you're taking, I guess taking 85% of something is better than 0% of nothing.
Starting point is 00:33:02 I guess you're 100% right there. That is very good logic. People used to come at me in sales because I would give the highest discounts. I'd be like, yeah, well, 40% is better than 0%. I always gave the highest discount. I don't give a fuck. Buy it right now. You were a seller. You were a killer
Starting point is 00:33:18 out there. You were the wolf of sales. By the way, Warrior. Warrior might be the best movie. That was in Pittsburgh as well? I love that movie. Pretty movie. What's Warrior? It's got Tom Hardy. He's an MMA fighter.
Starting point is 00:33:32 Who's this? His brother in it? I don't know. I can't remember his name. Joel Edgerton. Joel Edgerton. Nick Nolte. Ty Schmitty.
Starting point is 00:33:38 He just starts digging in there. Once Ty starts digging into the movie bank in his brain. He's IMDB. He is IMDB. What do you guys think the worst movie filmed in Pittsburgh brain. He's IMDb. He is IMDb. What do you guys think the worst movie filmed in Pittsburgh was? Concussion, probably. Yeah, probably. Is that the only reason why you asked that question?
Starting point is 00:33:54 To get jigs on his side? It wasn't even a setup either. Is that seriously the only reason why you asked that question? It might have been. I'm not above that. Straight off the top of the noggin. Concussion was incredible. Was it?
Starting point is 00:34:06 For who? Huh? Tell the truth. Not for the NFL, it wasn't. I got very scared for a lot of my friends. A.Q. Shipley, one of them. Very scared for A.Q. Shipley. Should be.
Starting point is 00:34:15 Who played Goodell? Huh? I don't know. Refused to see it. Listen to fucking Ty back there. Damn. He's like the Schwab. You remember that stump the Schwab does?
Starting point is 00:34:24 Yes, yes. He's like the Schwab when it comes to movie facts. Why is that? I don't know. I've seen a lot of them and I just like movies. Worked in Hollywood? Yeah, quote unquote. I was in Hollywood a little bit. I was on the Fox lot there for a while.
Starting point is 00:34:38 They had me park under the wrong building. Really? Yeah. The security guy sent me to the wrong building. He goes, what's your name? I'm like, Pat McAfee. He's like, do you have your ID? I'm like, I'm not lying.
Starting point is 00:34:48 Yep, here you go, though. He runs it through. He's like, you actually need to go under building 111, which is back out this exit in another security door. And it's over there. I'm like, thank you. Okay, sounds good. I turn around. I go in that one.
Starting point is 00:35:01 What's your name? Pat McAfee. Do you have your ID? Yep, I already. Here you go. around i go in that one what's your name pat mcafee you're ready yep already here we go they're like yeah you're parking below this building right here and you will go to building 111 which is right over there points right back to where i was points right back to where i was i was like why do i park here is there but well you could have parked over there i was like no no i was i was
Starting point is 00:35:17 told by one of your peers that i gotta park over here he was like no he lied to you you could have parked over there i'm like great this is a good All right. This seems to be a good start to my day here. So I parked down and I think it was like P3 or C3, way down. And then I come up and then I have to walk past the security. Security's like, how can we help you? I'm like, wrong building. So now I got to walk out of their building across a patio into another building where I sit.
Starting point is 00:35:40 That's where I see the big fucking robot. Yeah. I'm like, I think this is where I'm supposed to be. That was what greeted me. And then guy he was like who you here for I was like there's like five people he was like do you know one of their names I was like yep and I said he was like sit down man you're the coolest guy on earth he's like you got any phones the person in we got a he didn't say a white guy but he said we got an athletic looking guy
Starting point is 00:36:05 down here to see you and i was just sitting there and he hangs up the phone he'll be a couple minutes i'm like sounds good man i'm just sitting there people start walking by now like interns start walking by had a couple fans that they were like mcafee what are you doing i'm like i have no idea i don't even know if i'm in the right yeah and then they go through like the locked doors you know like the doors open and lock and you can't see through them so they're like going off into like this nowhere land you know like I have no idea what's on the other side of there is it one
Starting point is 00:36:32 gigantic studio that Terry Bradshaw is like right there I have no clue I thought like Strahan was potentially five feet away potentially so then people are walking out what McAfee what are you doing just waiting just waiting and then finally the gentleman that was with me comes down or to get me come comes and gets me i go in there and i tell the security guy like have a great day man
Starting point is 00:36:51 he's like you too bro and gives me like uh the peyton manning like gunpoint with a wink and i'm like you this guy's awesome it's like an 85 year old black guy just living his best life then i go in and i see there's all these different studios and then i have to go record one of those videos yeah and to do that i had to go all the way down and go out into that parking lot that i was talking about that i walked through so every time i'd walk out i'd be like playing the video like looking at it so i could see what happened and i'll be talking to my guy i'm like am i good to come back in he's like yeah you good man i was like i appreciate that can i go outside he's like you're an adult you can do whatever you want i'm like all right i feel like you're being a little bit of a sarcastic prick to
Starting point is 00:37:31 me right now but i'm gonna go and then i would go out and yell in the patio where everybody saw me and then i come back through and there was a changing of the guard literally a changing of the guard security guard there and there was these two guys that came in replacement for that guy and literally as i just got done yelling and I walk in, he goes to the two security guards, he goes, he good. And then he walked out. It was just a beautiful moment between me and that security guy. By the way.
Starting point is 00:37:57 Beautiful moment. Bradshaw, he's out of his mind. Bro, he just wings it up there, huh? He literally just said today that if he had to choose between having aaron rogers on the packers or mike mccarthy he would choose mike mccarthy why is he saying stuff like that that man gets paid to talk did you see him throw any other night in new york to tony gonzalez when it was wet it was a thursday night game and i guess the thursday night set isn't their set it's somebody
Starting point is 00:38:23 else's set so they kind of. And it's live, too. So it kind of just happens very fast. It's kind of like just fly by the seat of the pants, I guess. And it's what? It's Terry, Howie, Michael Strahan, and they had Tony Gonzalez on there. Thursday night in New York, and then they throw to wherever it is, blah, blah, blah. And it was raining. And it was raining in New York as well.
Starting point is 00:38:41 And Terry was explaining to people how he throws in the rain. So they actually put him outside. He was standing outside in the rain. It was pitch black. They had like cameras on him and just show the ring. And Tony Gonzalez was standing in a doorway, like inside the building. And Terry Bradshaw was like,
Starting point is 00:38:57 yeah, it's just easy. You just, you stood in the first one. He just sniped the top of the doorway and it just bounces straight down. Yeah. There goes a bar down ski. And then he threw like three more that were completions,
Starting point is 00:39:08 but I was just like, Terry Bradshaw is the man. He's got no rules. He's the Charles Barkley of the NFL. He's the Charles Barkley of the NFL. And I just die laughing at him. I die laughing. You're the sports historian there, Ty. Was he like the first uncharacteristically big,
Starting point is 00:39:25 strong quarterback of his era? Terry Bradshaw? Yeah, that's what I remember of him just kind of being like a badass. He was a big dude. I think Kenny Stabler was probably up there too.
Starting point is 00:39:34 Couldn't even guess who the fuck a Kenny Stabler was. Raiders. Couldn't even. Right there, if I was to guess what a Kenny Stabler was, I would have said an announcer.
Starting point is 00:39:43 That sounds like an announcer to me, Kenny Stabler. But Terry Bradshaw was a big man. Yeah, he was a big tough dude. I hated the way he threw football. Yeah, on the point. Yeah, because like my dad, right, was a fan of like Terry Bradshaw. And I feel like one of my first times being taught how to throw a football
Starting point is 00:39:57 it was how Terry Bradshaw throws a football on the point. And I could never get the fucking thing to spiral. And it almost turned me away from throwing footballs. I don't know how Terry Bradshaw grabs the point because his hands are so big. Massive hands. And then my dad went to high school with Dan Marino who quick, quickest
Starting point is 00:40:13 release. So now I'm learning how to throw the ball with no spiral and get it out quick. I don't know if this is for me. Is that how he taught you? He'd be like, oh Dan Marino taught me this. No, so Dan Marino and his dad used to be in the park in Oakland, I guess. My dad grew up in Oakland as well, and then he went to Four Stills. They both went to Central Catholic, graduated the same year.
Starting point is 00:40:30 They were not friends. His dad used to take him in the park and beat him if the ball was... It was like a... Good old days. It was a trained thing. With pole noodles? I don't know. I think John Gruden used to use the same thing Dan Marino's dad was using until the PC culture caught up to him. Switch. Yeah Gruden used to use the same thing Dan Marino's dad was using
Starting point is 00:40:45 until the PC culture caught up to him. The Switch. Yeah, he used to use the Switch. Get up, get up. But Dan Marino, that quick release got him, I mean, into the Hall of Fame probably. Yeah, yeah. Never won a Super Bowl, which is wild.
Starting point is 00:40:57 Damn shame. Damn shame for him. Damn shame. I feel like he did pretty good with the ladies. Dan? Oh, yeah. Pretty smooth, dude. Dan had a good time back in the day.
Starting point is 00:41:06 All cocaine, Dan? Oh, what? Snow White. What? What? I feel like you guys are saying slander that we're not allowed to say. It's public knowledge. I heard Dan Marino loved cocaine.
Starting point is 00:41:19 I mean, fucking star quarterback in Miami. All the odds were stacked against me. Oh, my God. When cocaine was going. I don't think it's a matter of who didn't, who was famous. He had so many connections directly to Pablo, I bet. Oh, yeah. I bet you he hung out with him.
Starting point is 00:41:37 I bet you at one point, somebody needs to ask Dan Marino if he ever met Pablo Escobar. Nobody ever talks to him about that. He'd come right out of his tunnel. Nobody ever talks about that to Dan Marino if he ever met Pablo Escobar. Nobody ever talks to him about that. He'd come right out of his tunnel. Nobody ever talks about that to Dan Marino, right? It's tough to have a reputation as a partying quarterback in college and then get drafted and go to Miami of all places in the 80s. Bro, he had to have met Pablo Escobar. Yeah, they're best friends.
Starting point is 00:42:00 It's guaranteed. Pablo, here's a story. Because every cocaine cow cowboy they talk about, we had football players, we had actresses, we had everybody. They said the star football players in Miami, Dan Marino. It's all coming together right now in my head that Dan Marino was a big reason for the city of Miami becoming the cocaine capital of the world.
Starting point is 00:42:23 The reason Finkel missed was because he had a coke problem. You think Einhorn had a cocaine problem? And a new pair of pants. Dude. Oh, yeah. Dan Marino knows Pablo Escobar. For sure. Pablo, here's a story.
Starting point is 00:42:40 Hey, Pablo. Si, Pablo. They got this gringo. He throws football, spend a lot of money on cocaine. We don't even need drug mules anymore. You can probably throw the coke over. Quick release. Pablo, quick release.
Starting point is 00:42:54 They come, then he throws out. Dan Marino slinging cocaine. That would be a good gif. Dan didn't deserve that. Dan did not deserve that. But it's all probably pretty accurate. That's who we are. We aren't afraid to talk about the things other shows won't talk about.
Starting point is 00:43:10 If you were as famous as he was in the 80s, you had to have a good time with him. In Miami, too. Yeah, in Miami. Because I think even, they talk about New York, like Joe Namath. He was living his dick off. Yeah. Not that Dan Marino's as old as Joe Namath, but I think it was very, every big city was,
Starting point is 00:43:28 everybody was doing the cocaine. They'd talk about it as if it was like alcohol or weed nowadays. Everybody was on it. And if you are the face of the city and you're a notorious party guy, I'd assume Dan Marino has met Pablo Escobar. He doesn't have a tiny nose,
Starting point is 00:43:44 so he's just set up for disaster. You're a fucking idiot. Tim Reno, we're never going to get him on the show because of this. Who's he working for, CBS? Yeah. Probably never have a chance on CBS Sports after this. But the easier thing is that if you start really connecting dots here
Starting point is 00:44:00 and follow the yellow brick road, it's coming up all white. It's coming up all white. It's coming up all white. Yeah. Yeah, that's why. Welcome to the show. Yes, you know that was why. Alright, so that conversation
Starting point is 00:44:18 right there will be the post-show conversation. Just a little. The OT. That's hilarious. I think it's true, though. It's gotta be. Just a little. The OT. The OT there. That's hilarious. I think it's true, though. It's got to be. He hung out with everybody.
Starting point is 00:44:32 We didn't make up the name Cocaine Dan. He was the king of Miami. Yeah. You didn't make that name up? No, no, no. That's known. That's Snow White. People used to call him Snow White. In college.
Starting point is 00:44:41 People called Dan Marino Cocaine cocaine Dan and he's on TV and I say fuck a couple times and I can't get over it that was a different different era yeah of course
Starting point is 00:44:51 yeah of course it was acceptable back in the day just do a bunch of cocaine this guy's just snorting gasoline and bleach you know
Starting point is 00:44:57 these are how hypocrites work Todd just grew up drinking in fields then he became a cop shut everything down no fun for anyone else Lawrence Taylor, they lay him on all the time.
Starting point is 00:45:06 Oh, yeah. I mean, you had a refrigerator, Perry, Willie Perry refrigerator, and Lawrence Taylor was the Coke machine. So I...
Starting point is 00:45:15 Overlooking his little past. There's an article right here that Kyle Turley says that Marino used to smoke weed before games. Respect. Respect. You got to come down at some point whenever you just got all that booger sugar jacking
Starting point is 00:45:29 you up. That's probably why his release was so goddamn quick. Oh my God. It says the drug problem was the reason why he fell to number 27 in the draft. Miami was like, everybody here has got a drug problem. We'll fucking take them.
Starting point is 00:45:46 That's why old man Rooney didn't take them. That's what I heard. Because cocaine. Yep. That's crazy. That's wild. Back in the day, though, everybody was doing the cocaine. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:45:55 I mean, you talk to comedians that were big in the 80s, and they was just like, you'd go into the green room, and it was just piled up on a table. It used to be that acceptable, which is insane to me. It used to be that like, yeah, yeah, this is what you do. Because all those documentaries you watch about the cocaine documentaries, they're all just like, yeah, everybody was doing it. It was just a very normal thing.
Starting point is 00:46:14 People used to smoke on airplanes. Literally right here in 1992, Chuck Knoll admitted to not drafting Marino because of the cocaine rumors. That's crazy. So they sent him to Miami? That Miami head coach and GM. So what's everybody saying about him? He does what?
Starting point is 00:46:31 Cocaine. It's not that bad, right? So do I. He's already one of the guys. He's already one of the guys. He's already ahead of the game. He's already got a good tolerance he can handle. He already gets the Miami culture.
Starting point is 00:46:42 His guy, he's already got the Miami. We'll fucking get him for sure. Give him a call. With the 27th thing. Cocaine Dan coming. That's insane. Hysterical. Oh, shit.
Starting point is 00:47:00 Dan Marino's legacy is an awesome one. Because I think he does a lot of really good stuff, too. He wears all white uniforms all the time made him feel at home it was like the kids doing the haka dance that's beautiful good for Dan man proud of him
Starting point is 00:47:15 I would love to get an interview with him yeah I love when he's on TV I would love to get an interview with Dan Marino do you ask him that? yes for sure just like I did with, what was Schefter? Yeah. What's your most memorable break?
Starting point is 00:47:31 Like, yo, we want to hear about Pierre Paul. Yeah. You know? So I actually said to him, like, just tell me about the fucking Jason Pierre Paul thing. I actually said that mid-answer. And I would do the same thing to Dan Marino. I think I would ask. I'd be like, okay, so Miami.
Starting point is 00:47:43 I've seen a lot of documentaries. Cooking Cowboys, one of them. Also, The Black Widow. I watched hers. Cooking Cowboys, two. I've seen Narcos. I've seen a lot. Everything.
Starting point is 00:47:59 Now, Dan, I might be wrong here after all my years and years of study here. But it seems as if all the nose candy, the girl the lindsey lohan the booger sugar the um never ending supply of energy and not being able to feel your face came right through miami right when you were there did you know anything about that and then i would hear his answer he'd probably lie like yeah it was all around there's a lot of stuff going on all around me obviously it's hard to stay focused on football in mi Miami with that going. Yeah, yeah, but Dan, what I want to know is, in all your years of cocaine use, did you ever meet Pablo Escobar?
Starting point is 00:48:34 Because I feel you were a pretty hot commodity in the cocaine business. And then he'd probably walk out. He'd probably walk out and leave. Or he just goes, oh, yeah, me and Pop. Oh, we take all the time. Oh, he's talking about Poppy. Yeah, yeah. And then you got to ask him
Starting point is 00:48:49 about not taking that percentage of Ace Ventura. Yeah, bro. These damn Marino memories and legacies are just legendary here. The greatest quarterback to never win a Super Bowl.
Starting point is 00:49:01 That's what people call him, right? Greatest quarterback to never win a Super Bowl. Now we're just learning that I just learned today that people call him, right? Greatest quarterback to never win a Super Bowl. Now we're just learning that. I just learned today that people call him Cocaine Dan. Just learning that. And then the Ace Ventura, you can either take 30 grand or a percentage of the movie. Give me the money.
Starting point is 00:49:15 This movie's going to suck. The movie still plays on TBS today. He would still be getting a percentage of a paycheck today from it. Give me the money. I've got to pick something up later. Pablo, yo, I just got 30 grand. grand yeah i was tied up in a bay there i said uh i said hey hey ace look at her butt you got any more of that gum ace that's what i said yeah now we got the best night thirty thousand dollars for the cook daniel constantine marino love it I said, yeah, now we got the best night. $30,000 worth of coke. Daniel Constantine Marino.
Starting point is 00:49:46 Love it. You got any more of that gum, Ace? That's what I said. I sat in the car. I said, do you have any more of that gum? I got tied up near the docks. And then we're off and running. I win the Super Bowl.
Starting point is 00:49:56 That's probably the craziest part of the whole movie. Now we got 30 grand. Let's do whatever the fuck we need to do. I bet you Jim Carrey's probably there when he spent the 30 grand. This is unbelievable. We're really putting things together here. What a life this guy's lived, man. Dan Marino has lived an awesome life.
Starting point is 00:50:10 Yes. He was also in Bad Boys. What? Bad Boys 2, yeah. They took his car that he was test driving. It was a Cadillac CTS. In Miami? I'm trying to forget about that.
Starting point is 00:50:20 Bro, he's in all these drug movies. He's in the drug city during the drug era. He's known as a drug guy. And Dan Marino still gets gigs on TV. Yeah. And I do not. I'm scary to them. Me.

It's on his Wikipedia page that he fell because of recreational drugs in the draft. I mean, we only insinuated that he probably very likely was a known associate
Starting point is 00:52:32 of Pablo Escobar. Courtesy of Wikipedia. Courtesy of Wikipedia. We did say that about the Pablo Escobar friendship. We are not, we must, if you are listening to this, please know, we are not certain if Dan Marino and Pablo Escobar were friends. No.
Starting point is 00:52:47 But we're pretty sure. Makes sense. We're pretty sure. We're pretty sure they've hung out in a club before. We're pretty sure of it. Those murders, though, by Pablo, by the way. Those cocaine cowboys, that cocaine cowboys documentary. They used to just run up an entire malls with automatic weapons and just saw down everybody.
Starting point is 00:53:08 To kill who was around. To kill one person. It was just to kill that person who's in the middle they would just shoot 35 people yeah crazy marino used to saw down the jets it's the same thing the jets saw down the colts uh we talked about that earlier we talked about that earlier remember yeah this is all going at the end Alright have a great Tuesday Heartland Radio 2.0 tomorrow I'll be in Orlando Florida with the WWE You will For the next couple days
Starting point is 00:53:35 Pretty exciting stuff This is a blossoming relationship I'm excited about it This is the first real step This is The panel I think was kind of like a feel out Yeah like a try, yeah. Well, the panel, I think, was kind of like a feel out. Yeah, like a try out,
Starting point is 00:53:47 kind of let's see how we do together. Yeah, they have me on the panel. They're like, let's see if this guy can keep it together. Because Michael Cole, very thankful he put me on their network. Nobody else would put me on a network. Nobody.
Starting point is 00:53:57 Nobody in the football world would put me on a network. Nobody would. Michael Cole is like, hey, everybody says they like you. Why don't you come do a panel? I'm like yeah absolutely You want to come down to the one in Wrestlemania
Starting point is 00:54:06 Pretty big fucking panel It's a pretty big fucking yeah yeah I'll definitely come got it So then they put me on there and it was just like back in the day When I would do the NFL Network with NFL AM That show got cancelled and then I was never called back By the NFL Network The NFL AM show they had me host in the off season
Starting point is 00:54:23 And they'd bring me in and they'd have all these people to be doing all this preparation okay and i don't have any note cards everybody's got all these note cards and i'm there for like two hours before the show goes on everybody's got no cards they're like do you need any notes i'm like no no no no no we're good we're good they're like do you have the blocks we have a block a b block with c block it's a three hour show or something i'm like yeah yeah yeah, yeah, yeah. Good to go. Ready to go. They're like, okay, let us know if you need any notes.
Starting point is 00:54:47 I'm like, all right. Sounds good. So the first block I'm in, the first segment they introduce me, and I have an earpiece in, and the person asks me a question. And in the ear, they're like, 10 seconds. And I'm like, I'm good. Thanks. I hope your life is great, too.
Starting point is 00:55:01 And then the next person talks. And then they go to commercial, and they're like, great break, great break. I'm like, great break. Like I said, four words. What did they think I'd be writing notes for, for those four words, just for future reference. So then the second block, they asked me a question and right before I go to answer as she's asking the question.
Starting point is 00:55:19 So that's what the notes were for, I think was to ask them the questions I'm going to be asked because while she's asking the question, I'm going to be being talked to in my ear so she's asking a question i'm like trying to read her lips while this guy's in my ear like you have 30 seconds and i'm like i think i made out there like peyton manning so then i went on like a minute long run i went on like a nice minute long rant everybody starts laughing then they go to the next person we go to a commercial break third block comes back something a little conversation and they head to me and the guy in my ear goes take it to commercial we got three minutes i'm like all right now we're feeling all right so this is when i started like just talking right and then we go to a break and then the
Starting point is 00:55:57 person in my ear is like yep love it we're gonna do that for the next two hours i'm like perfect okay wwe was the same thing so we rehearsed that first day for the panel we rehearsed we rehearsed we rehearsed all day it was like okay uh charlie would do all the hard lifting basically sam knows our business so i've sam talk pat if you want to say something here that's okay i'm like cool so we're sitting there and i've never rehearsed before either so i don't want to blow my load on anything in the rehearsals so the first rehearsal i'm saying like oh it's going to be a good match and then they're like thanks patals so the first rehearsal i'm saying like oh it's gonna be a good match and then they're like thanks pat and then god damn it i'm like there's like watching the
Starting point is 00:56:31 rehearsal i could just see michael cole's face just being like why does everybody like this guy i don't understand why everybody likes this guy and by like the third rehearsal i was like okay i'm either gonna shoot my shots here or i'm done so sam would say something and i would just go after sam and i would just say that Sam. And I would just say, that's stupid. Blah, blah, blah,
Starting point is 00:56:46 blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah,
Starting point is 00:56:46 blah, bing, bang, boom. And I would send it back to Charlie. Charlie and Sam would both be laughing and the camera people would be laughing. And then in my ear, I hear Michael Cole go,
Starting point is 00:56:54 Oh, that was a good one. That popped me is what he said. That popped me, which in wrestling world means got you to laugh or whatever. So then we go to the meeting after the third rehearsal. He was like, Hey,
Starting point is 00:57:04 that's, that's what we want right there. Don change it all whatever you want to say just do it i'm like i thought there was like a time limit he was like well that's because we didn't want you to sound stupid i'm like okay thank you so much i appreciate that and then the show came and basically in my ear they're just like go go go which is a really really awesome thing so after that one it goes well they invite me back i go and do another one for them, right? Chicago. Was that the second one I did? Yeah, and then New York. Chicago.
Starting point is 00:57:27 I go to Chicago, then I go to New York. At all those times, there's conversations happening with me and Michael Cole about like, hey, we should probably do something more. We should keep it moving. And now the conversations are really moving, which is pretty awesome. It's a pretty cool little thing. It's good you didn't blow your load in rehearsal, because that didn't work out too well for Harvey Weinstein or Louis C.K. You got a pretty cool little thing. It's good you didn't blow your load in rehearsal because that didn't work out too well for Harvey Weinstein or Louis.
Starting point is 00:57:48 You got me. You just popped me. It wasn't rehearsal by the way. That was in the recruiting. That was prior. That was prior to rehearsal. Imagine going to work with that guy. Imagine somebody jerking off in a plant
Starting point is 00:58:04 and I'd be like, okay, yeah, I have to be around this guy for the next six months filming a movie. Is that not... How did Weinstein not just feel or Lou just feel incredibly awkward? Yeah. Money.
Starting point is 00:58:14 Mostly? Probably money. You think? I mean, I would... Todd, you could jerk off in the corner all you want if you pay me. Yeah, it's going to be different though if you're a woman compared to a guy.
Starting point is 00:58:23 If you're a guy and the guy goes... It's like a predatorial thing. You're right. Do you mind if I jerk off in this plant? Yeah. But then you're going to see that person. As a stand-up comedian, this is just me thinking as a possible stand-up comedian.
Starting point is 00:58:37 I'm in that green room. Somebody jerks off in a plant right in front of me. How does that person not think that I'm just going to go right up on stage? Listen to this shit. Five minutes ago does that person not think that I'm just going to go right up on stage right here? Be like, yo, listen to this shit. Five minutes ago, I'm sitting in that green room right there and Louis C.K.
Starting point is 00:58:51 Well, yes, Louis, the host of Louis on FX. Louis C.K. He's coming up after me. This guy, the guy that's headlining the people. I was just sitting in there. He comes in, cranks his stick.
Starting point is 00:59:09 Cracks stick. Cracks his his stick comes in a plant probably gonna die wait was that his mo and then just walks away what am i how am i supposed to do stand-up comedy here for 15 minutes the intro for a guy then i literally just watch come in a plant like how do you not do that's a great point because probably nine times out of ten that opener was going to intro him to the stage. They're probably so scared, though. That bit would have crushed. Crushed. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:59:31 Could you imagine them asking me to come out for a Louis C.K. show? Like, oh, Pat's trying to get some minutes. Louis C.K. will let you do on his show. I'm like, oh, thank you so much, Louis. That's so nice of you. I'm sitting in the green room, and we're just talking. He's like, oh, what are you talking about? I'm like, oh, I just tell stories. He's like, Oh, what do you talk about? And I'm like, I just tell stories.
Starting point is 00:59:45 He's like, Oh, okay. And he just stands up and start just cranking. I'm like, I'm just over and sweaty. What are you doing, Louie?
Starting point is 00:59:52 What do I talk about? Like things that happened in my life. You just changed my whole. Hey, this just happened. So I really got to talk about this. I would, I know those,
Starting point is 01:00:02 the ladies he did it in front of obviously felt like they couldn't do that right their careers would be ruined but I feel like if they did in this modern time that shit would have got 10 bazillion 10 bazillion views I wonder what happened the plants they grew like bigger for sure it was great nutrients protein in there it's terrible like how do you not feel awkward those yeah okay how do you not feel awkward, though, as the ECK? Like, how do you not feel awkward there? I assume he felt awkward at the beginning, but then just got used to it.
Starting point is 01:00:31 But, bro, like, I cut somebody off, and we end up at a red light next to each other. I can't even look at them. This guy's beating his dick in front of people, and then walking right in front of them again like nothing even happened. I don't know how you do that. I wish I could just press it down. Just press it down, I guess.
Starting point is 01:00:46 There's a level of scumbag there that's not reachable to a common person. Yeah, I can't relate to that. I would like if a girl, just a comedian, walked in and I was changing a shirt in the middle of that, I would feel awkward for the rest of the night. Let alone if you do. Yeah, it's true, though. It's one of those situations where you're just like, I won't go back to certain places if I embarrass myself. There's bars I won't go back to.
Starting point is 01:01:06 I'm like, oh, last time I was in there, I was a fucking dick, and I puked. I am never walking back into that bar, and I haven't done it, and I never will. Can't go to my favorite bars anymore with you. It's tough. It's not true. There's only a couple on the list I can't go into.
Starting point is 01:01:24 Mostly because I know they remember me. They're going to want to tell that story. Yes, exactly. You're like, I don't want to relive it, bro. Oh, here's the fucking prick that ordered 100 shots at last call and then called us assholes for not doing it. Oh, it's great to have you back, Bob. It's great to have you back.
Starting point is 01:01:40 There was so many times where we would walk into our bar near our house before we moved here, and it was a Saturday, have you back there was so many times where we would walk into our bar near our house uh before we moved here and it was a saturday and the bartender be like oh fucking surprised to see you two here i'm like what did we do last night see i enjoyed that though but that's because we were regulars and like we knew them see your friends with them yeah yeah i just don't understand how like bill cosby was doing shit to people it's like just just just absolutely he's just a horrible person yeah but completely doing all that shit and then going about giggling about jello pops
Starting point is 01:02:10 yeah that's where you got to have some psychopath that's what i'm saying yeah where you don't feel that kind of emotion how do they bury that guilt how do you not feel bad and uncomfortable and there's a like i feel bad for other people like the thought of louis ck being in front of those people he was doing i i feel almost too uncomfortable to even think about like oh that has to be such i'll watch it because i like trash tv but it's like oh that's an awkward situation that's some fucking criminal mind shit i assume if they weren't comedians they would have been serial killers seriously how do you do it though i? Oh, hi. I'll leave. The last time you saw me, I was doing that thing with the plant.
Starting point is 01:02:51 I'll get out of here. Did I just figure out invisibility? Has anyone seen me? Well, like, Louie. Louie's one thing because he was kind of dark in his humor, right? Like, Bill Cosby was clean, right? Yeah, like Mr. Clean, yeah. Dr. Huxtable.
Starting point is 01:03:07 What are you doing, Dr. Huxtable? Hey, Michael Shea on that weekend update, that's one of the funniest things they've done in a long time. Did you see it? He's like, I still don't understand why the name was The Cosby Show, and his name was Dr. Huxtable. And then they cut back to Colin Jost, and then they come back to Michael Shea,
Starting point is 01:03:29 he's like, you got Seinfeld after Seinfeld, Kramer after Kramer, or Frazier after Frazier. He said, but Cosby Show, Huxtable. And then they went back to Colin Jost, and I was like, whoa, hysterical. Never even thought of that. I didn't either, it was great. Yeah, it was a very, very, I was dyingical. Never even thought of that. I didn't either.
Starting point is 01:03:45 It was great. It was a very, very, I was dying laughing. Michael Shea, that guy. Weekend Update, I think, holds him back a little bit, the PC culture. Yeah. I very much enjoy that dude's brain, man. He's so good.
Starting point is 01:03:56 All buildings matter. Yeah. That motherfucker, dude, his stand-up set was electric. PC culture. I saw this weekend that Steve Carell said that he would never do an Office reboot because the PC culture is too PC. Yeah, yeah. I was watching. I went into a rabbit hole of Office GIFs.
Starting point is 01:04:13 Yeah, there's a lot of shit that there's no way it would fly. I know. Like him doing the finger penis. Just as small as that is nowadays, that'd be deemed like he would be probably banned from tv i can't remember the episode is but the race one oh there's so many race ones and fat shaving cultural awareness yeah they got away with it from michael being the character of michael being so ignorant to everything he had no idea what he was doing you know what i think our culture needs that nowadays by the way something like that that person will be hated by a lot of people. But boy, I think it would be a it'd be funny to get people to laugh about themselves more instead of get upset about it.
Starting point is 01:04:51 I mean, he obviously was playing like a real ignorant person. That was the comedy, you know, that he didn't know any different. Like he wasn't doing it to be a bad person. Ricky Gervais wrote that? He wrote the original, but like B.J BJ Novak was one of the head writers. Who's BJ Novak? He plays Ryan in the series. Oh, that little young looking guy?
Starting point is 01:05:09 Yeah, yeah. He's one of the writers of that show? Yeah, so is Mindy Kaling, the Indian girl. Kelly Kapoor. Easy, please. Jesus. Wow. Not Native American.
Starting point is 01:05:17 She is. From India. Convenience, not casino. Oh, there it was. There it was. We were trying to dance around it. There it was. Oh, not casino. There it was. We were trying to dance around it. There it was. Diggs.
Starting point is 01:05:29 Hashtag end game. Hashtag end game. Let's check our ratings after that. I couldn't remember if I've said that before on here or not. Have I said that publicly yet? That's what Diggs just thought to himself. Has anybody else ever heard me say this outside of my tight group of friends? Now that I think about it,
Starting point is 01:05:47 that was an idiot thing to say. Yes, what are you talking about? We were actually talking about how a certain show could not exist because of things like that being said, and you doubled down. After I realized where I got it from, I was like, oh, shit, I haven't said that before.
Starting point is 01:06:01 That's from an idiot friend. You couldn't do Married with Children nowadays or All in the Family. How about them doing that by the way with The Conners? The Tom Brady Brady and Belichick.
Starting point is 01:06:10 Brady and Belichick have been together 19 years. Oh yeah. That whole Average marriage 19 and a half. Yeah. That was crazy. That was absolutely crazy.
Starting point is 01:06:18 That was insane. 19 years is a long motherfucking time. It's a long time. You can see why they start getting sick of each other. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:06:25 Hey I'm about sick of you. What about two polar opposite humans? Little frumpy looking cut off sweatshirt wearing son of a bitch. And then the most attractive male on earth having a guy who married a supermodel who rides camels. Versus a guy who doesn't refuse to talk to anybody, just works all day. He's almost like a hermit, it seems like. And then Tom Brady, they're supposed to just be in cahoots
Starting point is 01:06:53 for 19 years straight. I'm surprised they lasted this long. They just want to win. And by the way, with that being said, ladies and gentlemen, we have a warning for the rest of the NFL from a mass hole. Everybody watch the Sunday night football game. Saw the Patriots do what the Patriots does. If you could stand here for that camera.
Starting point is 01:07:13 Saw the Patriots do what the Patriots does. And the reason why you hate the Patriots is because of what happened on Sunday night football. It's just like, no matter what happens, there's going to be... They're going to win. Now, people are like, oh, they lost to the Lions. It's like, yeah, but that's like when the Patriots are figuring it out.
Starting point is 01:07:35 That's when Patriots are figuring it out. That Chiefs team is the best team in AFC right now, aside from the Patriots. Their offense is incredible. Patrick Mahomes and Tyreek Hill and Kareem Hunt and Travis Kelsey are a cheat code. Buy the shirt. Buy the shirt.
Starting point is 01:07:50 Buy the shirt. Buy the shirt. But the Patriots just win the game. And you have no clue how. You have no clue why. And then you just know what's going to happen. And now we have a warning from a mass hole for the rest of the NFL. Not exactly a warning.
Starting point is 01:08:06 Like a nice reminder of what the NFL is about. See, listen to this. The talk, the tone. This is what Patriots fans are right here. Hey, hey, hey. It was me who wrote this. A lot of people from Pat's Nation hit me up to chime in for this. You're just the vehicle.
Starting point is 01:08:20 I'm just the vehicle. I'm just the vessel. Call me Noah Zark. Official statement. Vessel. That was the word we were looking for. The last time we had this conversation. I'm just the vehicle. I'm just the vessel. Call me Noah Zark. Official statement. Vessel? That was the word we were looking for. The last time we had this conversation. Vessels. You were just the vessel
Starting point is 01:08:32 of the message. From Pats Nation. Official statement on Patriots. Okay. Hello. Thank you for having me on today to speak. I love what you did with the place. These, there are many. You know what? Maybe, maybe Pat's Nation's much nicer than we thought.
Starting point is 01:08:49 Look at that. I think they like it. I think they're a big, after that fake punt, they really were a big fan. Warming us up. It wasn't me. I wasn't in that fucking play. Take that back to the, vessel that shit back to the Pat's Nation. I'll, to the source that sent that to me.
Starting point is 01:09:03 Just get on with it, will you? There are many things I'd like to get to regarding the 2018 New England Patriots. But first, I'd like to take you back to February 4th, 2018. Oh, we're taking a trip back. For those of you unaware. How can it go forward without going back? Is this a statement? Yeah, sorry.
Starting point is 01:09:20 Sorry, sorry. Please. Sorry. Goodness gracious. You got really excited. Should I start over? No, no, no. We got it. Your first segment. Please. Sorry. Goodness gracious. You got really excited. Should I start over? No, no, no. We got it.
Starting point is 01:09:25 Your first set. Hello. For those of you unaware, the Patriots lost to the Eagles on this day that will forever live in infamy. Oh, okay. This wasn't just another game. Mind you, Zito. This was the Super Bowl.
Starting point is 01:09:40 Oh, superb owl. As I walked off the field that day. What? I had another. I think you misread. As I walked off the field that day, I had a deep feeling. A feeling that reached all the way down to my plums. Balls.
Starting point is 01:09:59 Tom Brady was going into another offseason of criticism. Oh. A lot of quarterbacks may care about this, but in a video released by Tom Brady on September the 5th, right before the season started, also known as the epilogue of Tom versus time. Kissing his child. Facebook.
Starting point is 01:10:15 I heard from Tom what all of New England needed to hear. What was that? And I quote, I just don't give a shit anymore. Oh. To worry about a lot of bullshit that people may say or think or feel, I really don't care anymore. That was two shits in one statement.
Starting point is 01:10:29 Those are bleepable words. Dash Tom Brady. Oh. Tom Brady actually said that. Tom Brady said that. That's what I said and I quote. And the dash. Dash Tom Brady.
Starting point is 01:10:39 Now let's fast forward to September 24th. Okay. Okay. This is this year. This is the 2018 season. It's underway. Do. This is this year. This is the 2018 season. It's underway. Do the sound and the edit. We just fast forward to September.
Starting point is 01:10:50 We lose to Matt Patricia in the Lions, 26-10, as we go to a record of 1-2. Fuck you, Fox. Normally, I wouldn't have an ounce of worry in my blood. However, however, the man whose show I now address you from warned me. In late August, he said, and I do not quote this, this may be the season where the roller coaster doesn't rise after the drop. Oh.
Starting point is 01:11:18 Powerful, powerful words. You didn't quote that because you said it better than the words I said. It was along the lines, I think we understand what you were trying to get. Yeah, you're paraphrasing. Thank you. Yeah, it was a good paraphrase. At a record of one and two, this statement ran through my head as we got ready for the division leading. Dolphins, LOL.
Starting point is 01:11:39 Disclaimer, and completely unrelated, the Dolphins just beat the Bears. Then, a voice of God. It was Zito's fault because of God. It's funny you just said that. Tied those both together. Zito shit in a church. Zito, what'd you do? Yeah, I shit in a church. Instead of a gas station? Instead of a gas station. And you made God mad
Starting point is 01:11:57 at the Bears. Yep. You did that on Sunday morning while a church service was happening. Wait, why did you shit in a church? Yeah, I was driving down back from Notre Dame, and I was just driving. I was like, I don't want to shit in a gas station. I want to shit somewhere else. So you're too good for a gas station.
Starting point is 01:12:10 Yeah, and a fast food place. So he goes directly into Jesus' house, pokes his head into the goddamn serve, the thing, and then goes and takes a shit, clogs the toilet, and walks out. I've been to the pub. The pub is a gas station. Whoa. You live in a public food.
Starting point is 01:12:25 You stay focused on your food. You did to God what Matt Hasselbeck did to Andrew Luck. I like that. You did. You did it. Actually, I don't get that reference. When Matt Hasselbeck shit his brains out in Andrew Luck's toilet. Oh, yes.
Starting point is 01:12:43 That is what you did to God. That's a callback it's a big callback couple week callback that was pretty good anyways the bears did lose to the dolphins disclaimer yes then a voice of god played over that of the man on my left bullshit that people may say i really just don't care anymore and i quote that's from brady still that played in my head over this guy. After Pat said the roller coaster. Okay, yeah.
Starting point is 01:13:08 We went on to beat Miami. Yep. 38 to 7. I don't know if you guys remember. It was a bloodbath. It was. I took the Dolphins with the points that day. And I follow that with,
Starting point is 01:13:16 a game in which Patriots minus 14 and a half at plus 220 was more than a lock than Thanos killing half the planet with a snap of his fingers. Can't believe you bet Miami. I did. I did bet Miami because I said the roller with a snap of his fingers. Can't believe you bet Miami. I did. I did bet Miami because I said the roller coaster wouldn't rise. Yeah, it wouldn't rise after that drop, but we're rising. Now that game against the Finns, that was just the beginning.
Starting point is 01:13:35 Oh, the tide is turning. What you saw Sunday night against Post Mahomes and the gang. That was the coming out party. The five weeks the Chiefs have at the beginning of every season always brings a smile to my face. Not because they're winning, but because we, Patriot Nation, know that the wall of Belichick will be too tall a climb for the shelf on Andy Reid's stomach.
Starting point is 01:14:03 Now, hold on. I'm not saying we're waltzing into the playoffs just because we beat the Chiefs. Of course not. We need a strong second half to get home field where we have the Bears and Steelers away with the Vikings coming to town to Gillette. There will probably be a division loss in there somewhere.
Starting point is 01:14:22 Miami? I don't know. Oh, now the Dolphins could possibly beat you guys. When they go to a 4-8. Brady's like 7-9 in Miami. However, it's because of the same thing they got Dan Marino. It's the same thing they got Dan Marino, bro. It's that nose candy. Alright, here we go.
Starting point is 01:14:38 I don't know. However, Are you getting back on script? What I do know is that the Patriots aren't going anywhere. Keep saying, thinking, and feeling like they are. We really don't care anymore. Thank you, Patriots Nation. I feel like you just copied my statement to the Steelers Nation at the beginning.
Starting point is 01:14:56 Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Copied your statement? Give me a break. All right. See you guys later. The whole room was just awkwardly staring at me. Patriots feel good, huh?
Starting point is 01:15:14 I mean, it's every year this happens, and then we start the year off slow, and everyone talks shit, and then we go back to the Super Bowl. Dude, it was crazy because you're watching that game. You see Tyreek Hill score that touchdown, and everybody everybody knew it's like even the chiefs knew it's like yeah we know it's the we've seen this song and dance 4 000 times tom brady's about to just walk him right down the field and goszkowski's gonna kick a game winner it was like a 28 yard or something like that yeah it was close it wasronk was tackled inside the 10,
Starting point is 01:15:45 which would have been a great cover for me. Yeah. Good teams win, great teams don't. I don't give a shit because my team's already a lock for the first pick in the draft. But with the addition of Gordon, things are fucking scary. It's not fair that the big brains up there
Starting point is 01:16:01 get to utilize Gordon. Because even if they're not giving him the ball, they can scheme so that a safety has to keep an eye on him. It's just the big brains in New England. It's unbelievable. Hasn't dropped a pass in practice, apparently. Josh Gordon. Brady's been so impressed with him.
Starting point is 01:16:14 He bobbled one and he was stunned. Brady put out an IG post about him. Attack. Attack. Well, that's to motivate, right? That's to motivate him. That's good leadership, by the way. That's very good leadership.
Starting point is 01:16:22 Lockers right next to each other. Hey, we need you, Custis. Well, it's like saying, hey, man, there's probably a lot of distractions right now, but we're on a mission here. This ain't no fuck around time. We're on a mission here. Keep it going. And if Josh Gordon wide receivers like attention, good way to give him attention in 2018 social
Starting point is 01:16:35 media attention. That's a good, that's great leadership there by Tom Brady. How do you get a locker next to Tom Brady? They always throw him right there. They move, they move the guy. I think Slater was there or something. Move Slater. He's fine. Move in Josh.
Starting point is 01:16:49 Slater's one of those guys. He can be anywhere in the locker room. He still has a presence. You throw in Josh Gordon. You need him next to Brady. Marijuana just got legal in Massachusetts. You can't have Gordon without a father on that team. I'm serious.
Starting point is 01:17:01 Tom Brady's the father. Yes. Tom versus Tom versus kid. Belichick's the chief. You think he kisses Josh Gordon on the lips too? Only on Tuesdays. The off day? Yeah, a little off day. How you doing? You want to go see Littlefoot? Let's do it.
Starting point is 01:17:15 Smallfoot. Great movie, by the way. People should go see it. You'll get it. I'll tell you. Spoiler. Bigfoot community finds out that there's a Smallfoot community. They hold one of the Smallfoots hostage, bring him back spoiler. Bigfoot community finds out that there's a smallfoot community. They hold one of the smallfoots hostage, bring them back to the Bigfoot community to showcase them. The reason why we can't understand them is because their pitch is too deep.
Starting point is 01:17:32 Humans' pitch is too high, so they can't understand us. So whenever his name was Percy in the movie, James Corden thinks that the Bigfoot's yelling at him, but really he just can't understand him. So then they start using hand signals with each other. Boom, bang, boom. He's small foot. He's got a little foot in the Bigfoot community.
Starting point is 01:17:50 Then they all come together. I left before the ending, but I get it. Yeah, you get it. Sign language. Genius idea. Shirt available. Genius idea. You get it.
Starting point is 01:17:58 Shirt available. Batman for show to go. Hashtag end game. Hashtag end game. if you shut it down. Hashtag end game. Hashtag end game. I would like a gif or a picture of every single member of Pat's nation
Starting point is 01:18:10 whenever they find out that the Patriots are done. The Patriots are done. The dynasty is over after this year. Or next year. Or 45 when Brady retires. Unbelievable, isn't it? Unbelievable. He's going to do it.
Starting point is 01:18:26 Also, I don't know if... Julian Edelman got his swagger back too, by the way. He started talking shit and getting mad. The first couple games back, I think, or the first game back was almost like a welcome back party. We're happy, blah, blah, blah. And then Julian Edelman got his shit back last night. Almost got his glove ripped off
Starting point is 01:18:38 and had to put it back on just to make the touchdown. Incredible. While he's running. What a fucking stupid operation. What a stupid operation. It's like Vontaze Perfect. One game back, it was calm, quiet, a couple snaps. Next game back, tries to take someone's head off again.
Starting point is 01:18:52 Edelman, you've got to get in the run game. That's the thing with Edelman. You get him blocking, get the blood flowing, then we're really talking about Julian Edelman. He's a bulldog. Yeah, exactly. You've got to take the leash off sometimes. What if Gronk stays healthy this year, too?
Starting point is 01:19:03 There's no chance of that happening because of how many hits he gets because of how good he is. But if he stays healthy, Julian Edelman, Josh Gordon starts figuring out more plays, it's a fight. Again, here we are again. Sonny Michel. Oh, yeah, they finally have a run alive. Bro, Lazy Eye Hall of Fame.
Starting point is 01:19:18 Cuzzy. Yep. 110 yards or something like that. Two touchdowns. Back-to-back games over 100. And they got what's-his-face, too, back there. James White. Yes. Leads the team in recept that. Two touchdowns. And they got what's-his-face too back there. James White. Yes.
Starting point is 01:19:25 Leads the team in receptions and reception touchdowns. I had a nice little LOL yesterday when fucking Tom had to yell at Gronk to stand up. Gronk, stand up! And then they had to take a timeout. Then they had to take a timeout. Yeah, it was awesome. That Gronk stiff arm, though. Also, I think Pat Mahomes caught a cover too at one point,
Starting point is 01:19:42 and then they popped off like a 20-yard run because the blocking got schemed up. I like whenever the microphone picks up some really high-level shit. Not that I know what any of it means. But when Patrick Mahomes goes like, cover two, it's cover two, it's cover two, and then all of a sudden a 20-yard run starts out, you just automatically assume, oh, Pat literally just made a blocking check for them.
Starting point is 01:20:03 That makes him look like a genius. That's like when Cam Newton said to Clay Matthews, you think it's a... That type of shit I like a lot. Because there's just so much talking at any given moment. It's a chess game. It really is. There's so much talking. It's insane to think about.
Starting point is 01:20:20 It's insane. You get to see the knowledge too. A lot of quarterbacks don't check because they don't know Mahomes is what 23-24 He looks good He looks real good He has that photographic memory Photographic memory
Starting point is 01:20:32 I think he's the next one I think he's the next one I've donned it And I think everybody has to be honest I'm not like going out on a limb here by saying this But I truly believe everybody's right This guy is the truth And I said this earlier to Connor
Starting point is 01:20:44 I said you give like Pat mahomes sean mcveigh like a brain like that i couldn't even imagine what he do and then connor told me he's like no no andy reed is he's got a very much better than sean mcveigh and then we start talking about what what you say i said the reason the rams can do what they do is because they have uh their backbone their team, I would say, is their defense. You got the best D-line. You got the two probably. I wouldn't say the best cornerback duo. But great corners.
Starting point is 01:21:12 But great corners. Mark Barron in the middle. He's a vet. Joyner out back. He's a vet. Peter's actually been getting fucking toasted lately, which is weird. I think he's hurt. Collinsworth kept saying over and over that he hasn't even figured out yet that he should be using his legs more,
Starting point is 01:21:25 like he should be running more. Is he purposely, like, has Reid told him just to beat it into his head, you're going to be a pocket passer, pocket passer, pocket passer? That's every quarterback. They are told, and it was kind of what was happening with Johnny Manziel. Whenever he was running and shit and they were making plays, it was like everybody was saying, like, this is not for the long haul. It's just like with RG3.
Starting point is 01:21:48 RG3 was Offensive Rookie Player of the Year the same year Andrew Luck broke a lot of Peyton's records in the Colts. And they were like, this is not for the long haul. It's good, but it's not for the long haul. Just because the sustainability of that is very low. Andy Reid went through a little bit of it with Donovan McNabb back in the day, too. They used to criticize McNabb for not running enough. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:22:07 It's like, we're just scrambling. Sometimes you see him now where he waits too long and then he has to end up throwing it away as he's getting hit or whatever. But when he turns that corner and gets that Aaron Rodgers, as soon as he knows, I've got nowhere to go, boom, I'm going to run. Don't you think it's going to be a toy?
Starting point is 01:22:24 And he can slide, too too by the way big baseball player he's more like Rodgers in the way that he doesn't scramble to run he scrambles to make a play and he hangs in the pocket too because he knows his arms so fucking strong by the way very very smart if you're Patrick Mahomes and you can throw the ball 82 yards he said
Starting point is 01:22:40 85 yards and you got a guy named Tyreek Hill who can outrun everybody if you just extend the play long enough and you get out there you can just He said 85 yards. And you've got a guy named Tyreek Hill who can outrun everybody. If you just extend the play long enough and you get out there, you can just hold my dick that thing all the way to Tyreek Hill down. But it is very interesting that he rarely looks to take off. When you would think, like Cam Newton, Cam Newton gets outside that. He's going.
Starting point is 01:23:00 Cam Newton is going. He's one of the quarterbacks, by the way, I think, who's built like a defensive end. He can sustain. He can take the hits. I'm assuming mahomes could as well he's a little skinnier but mahomes is a little skinny yeah but whenever he does you're right whenever he finds out like what's probably coming this off this is first season playing right this is his first season playing still learning yeah so next offseason when he is literally just watching film of how he can get better next year i can't even fathom what the fuck Patrick Mahomes is.
Starting point is 01:23:27 In your system, when he's up for his contract, so they're going to get rid of him. No, not Patrick Mahomes. In my system, in my idea of building the team instead of the quarterback, if you're a top five quarterback, which I think Patrick Mahomes will be, you have to keep that guy in the building. If you're that next level, that next tier that is, let's say, not top five players of all time.
Starting point is 01:23:49 Like right now, we go top five players of all time playing quarterback in the NFL right now. We can name them off, right? We can go Aaron, Drew, Brady, Phillip Rivers maybe. You can even put him in there because he's won a lot of games. I put Big Ben. I put Ben over. Ben Roethlisberger.
Starting point is 01:24:03 You can name the five, six. If you're going to be the top five or six quarterback. You don't ever let them go. You don't let them go. But if you're anywhere below seven or eight, maybe we'll say, if you're in the lower three quarters of the league, I don't think you pay those guys. I don't think you pay those guys 20-some million
Starting point is 01:24:20 because the deficit it's taking on the rest of your team. Like, let's say, Andy Dalton. Russell Wilson russell wilson matt dalton matt stafford matt ryan these guys very very very very very good quarterbacks very good quarterbacks but i don't think joe flacco i don't think they should be making 20 some million taking up you got like a quarter of your salary cap going right into this person and then they wonder why russell wilson can't win it's because well he can't afford anybody he can and i think that is where the tide will turn you will have to be able to depict a guy from being a once in a generation player to just a b-tier player i think pat mahomes is a once in a generation player i think he i think he's got it whatever it is i
Starting point is 01:24:59 think pat mahomes has you brought up cam newton there's another guy by the way i think you pay him have you paid attention when watching his games? You know how when a quarterback goes to throw a fucking deep ball, like over 40 yards, their front shoulder comes up, like you could tell when it's going to go. He throws that for every single fucking ball, and it's the most...
Starting point is 01:25:17 It drives me insane watching. I'll be like, oh fuck, he's going deep, and it's like a six-yard hit. What the fuck is going on? I was at Fox Sports last week, name drop, in Los Angeles. You ever heard of it, Connor? LA, wow. Los Angeles. A lot of stars over there.
Starting point is 01:25:33 Yeah, there's an entire road of them. So there was a play, though, Carolina. It was the Carolina Giants game. He threw, it seemed to be just like an out, a quick out. And it looked like it slipped out of his hand because of how weird his release is. And the people in the room that I was in were like, did that slip out of his hand?
Starting point is 01:25:56 And they even did like a replay. And it was like, no, that's just literally how he throws. I didn't notice it until this year, though, and it drives me insane. But he can fucking huck it. It's like Phillip Rivers throws weird. I think't notice it until this year, though, and it drives me insane. But he can fucking hock it. Oh, yeah. It's like Philip Rivers throws weird. I think Cam Newton has a weird delivery.
Starting point is 01:26:10 I think he does, but he can sling the fucking... No one's weirder than Philip Rivers. He's an irreplaceable guy, though, Cam Newton, by the way, when he's on your team. He does a lot. He can do a lot. That team's... I thought they'd be a lot better than they are, Carolina Panthers.
Starting point is 01:26:19 He's got no one to throw to. He's got Torrey Smith, who's old. Greg Olson. Devin Funchess, who's a tight end in college. Why'd he blow off Josh Norman? Why'd Cam Newton blow off Josh Norman after the game? I mean... Did Josh Norman say something about Cam?
Starting point is 01:26:30 I think he did, didn't he? They were just talking shit all game. Their split when he left Carolina was weird, and there's always been stuff between him and Cam. So then Cam and Josh Norman don't get along. Did they fight on the practice field, too? Yeah, maybe. Yeah, when Josh Norman was young, he just came into the league.
Starting point is 01:26:45 Cam Newton beat the shit out of him in practice, and then Josh Norman got good. Cam Newton got into it. And Cam Newton, Calvin Benjamin. Yeah, there it is. Cam Newton, Calvin. So everybody leaves. It seems as if.
Starting point is 01:26:55 I wonder what it is. Calvin took some heat this weekend. Because, well, the report was that Josh Allen went up to him pregame and was like, do you want to work on some routes? And he said no. No, man, I'm good. Josh Allen's hurt at this point? Elbow.
Starting point is 01:27:08 Elbow injury to his throwing arm. Josh Allen, just a kid out there from, where is he from? Wyoming? South Dakota? Wherever the fuck he's from. Hey, Mr. Benjamin, I was wondering if maybe we go get some work in right here before game. Okay, I'll go fuck myself.
Starting point is 01:27:24 This ain't Wyoming anymore. Buffalo Bills. The Patriots fans have such a hilarious conference. I was thinking about this right before. I don't think the Rams get enough shit for their conference being terrible. Well, because it wasn't always. Like a few years ago. Also, the Rams were terrible two years ago.
Starting point is 01:27:44 The Rams were absolutely dog shit two years ago. The Seahawks were really good a few years ago. Also, the Rams were terrible two years ago. The Rams were absolutely dog shit two years ago. The Seahawks were really good a few years ago. Yeah, because whenever the Rams were dog shit, the Seahawks were the Legion of Boom. That was when they were the Legion of Boom. The NFC Championship for two years in a row was Seattle and 49ers. And the Cardinals had a couple good years in there, too. They won 11-5 a couple years ago.
Starting point is 01:28:00 The Niners are dog shit. They played last night against the Packers. Last night. The show comes out tomorrow. Yeah, that's right. Last night they played ago the niners are dog shit they played last night against the packers last night the show comes out tomorrow that's right last night they played against the packers big thanks to aaron rogers for uh winning that i bet that money line huge risk minus four thousand some maybe if you lose that there big thanks to aaron rogers making it happen against the niners they were 10 point uh favorites over the nin Diggs, did you bet on the game? I did not, actually, because I won so much last week on Monday Night Football, and I just didn't have a good read on this one. But last Monday night was so easy because the NFL has actually rigged the NFL for Drew Brees.
Starting point is 01:28:40 Okay. Is there like a hot take? Can we get a hot take alert here? Diggs is coming out and saying, can you hit that ramba? Not ramba, the rasta thing. The pasta thing, Boston Garner. Can you hit that one more time?
Starting point is 01:29:00 Yeah. That's what we're looking for. Let me just lay this out. By the way, Drew Brees was supposed to come on our show And then he He passed And I wonder if it's because of my dumb baby comments And I'm assuming what's about to happen Isn't going to help either
Starting point is 01:29:16 So we already lost Drew Brees Let's assume he's gone forever Go for it Alright, let me make this clear I love Drew Brees I think everybody does I am also not an NFL Is rigged guy I hate those guys
Starting point is 01:29:26 Because the Italians Rig the NFL It's not the NFL Rigging the NFL Let's just get that clear Oh so you guys don't think You get enough credit Correct
Starting point is 01:29:32 This is un-fucking-believable They're the worst bro But Just wait This is a solid argument For the NFL Is rigged crowd Okay
Starting point is 01:29:42 So I'm giving it to them It's not for me Oh this is like him A vessel I don't know Yes I'm a vessel For the NFL Is rigged crowd. Okay. So I'm giving it to them. It's not for me. Oh, this is like him, a vessel. I don't know. Yes. I'm a vessel for the NFL is rigged crowd. Okay.
Starting point is 01:29:49 I don't know the why I'm still looking for the, why the NFL would rig it for Drew Brees. But I know that it like, I don't know if it's because he's short and he's a nice, likable guy. And it's like a good comeback story after he hurt his shoulder. And then he went and lifted up new Orleans. Sounds like pretty good reason. It's probably the reason katrina the whole thing happened there but like
Starting point is 01:30:08 the first time that it started coming to me was that super bowl was when like the saints recovered that onside onside well no that was the first game after katrina the block punt i wasn't going to bring that up because that was such a huge moment for the city but if you want to throw that in there sure okay you didn't throw it in there. I did. Steve Gleason, by the way, keep fighting because got it. So at the Super Bowl, they recover that onside kick, which was absurd, and there's some shit going on at the bottom of the pile, blah, blah, blah. And then Hank
Starting point is 01:30:33 Baskets says to this day that they were saying white ball or blue ball, whatever we were wearing. What were we wearing? White. They were saying white ball, white ball, white ball, Hank says. Now, Grady, you never give up the ball at the bottom of the pile, but he says to this day that the refs did saying white ball, white ball, white ball, Hank says. Now, Grady, you never give up the ball at the bottom of the pile, but he says to this day that the refs did say white ball. Correct.
Starting point is 01:30:50 And then, what was it, two minutes left when the Colts are going down to tie the game. Just out of nowhere, Peyton Manning and Reggie Wayne just aren't on the same page, and Tracy Porter has a pick six. Oh, so now it's deeper than just the nuts. That's when it started. That's when it started. That's when it started for me. I was like, oh, something's fishy going on here.
Starting point is 01:31:08 You think Peyton and Reggie aren't going to be on the same page in the Super Bowl? I know, right? Now that I'm thinking about it, that doesn't make sense to me either. I never talked to Reggie. And then Drew's up on that Super Bowl stage with his baby and the earmuffs are on, and the NFL's like, oh, this is going nice. This is a nice little situation we've got here with Drew. Fast forward, 2012.
Starting point is 01:31:25 This is my nice little situation we got here with Drew. Fast forward, 2012. This is my next suspicion. He breaks the Johnny Unitas record for most games in a row with a touchdown pass. Okay? Okay. Let me go here. Number one, it was a primetime game, Sunday night football. Okay? Okay.
Starting point is 01:31:37 It was two against the Chargers, his old team. Okay. Devery Henderson was open by like 30 yards it couldn't have been perfect huge celebration after a blah blah yeah but like 30 yards open to break a record against the chargers prime time it just too easy all came over came together too well fast forward last week monday night he's going for the all-time yards record. Prime time. Prime time, Monday night football.
Starting point is 01:32:09 And then again, again, the wide receiver is wide-ass open. Wide open. For a touchdown. And then they pull out a piece of paper. The ref pulls out a piece. Oh, if he's going to break the record, we might as well have him do it on a 60-yard touchdown. Pulls out a piece of paper. Drew's standing there
Starting point is 01:32:25 celebrating for like three minutes with his teammates. Takes his helmet off. No delay game. No excessive celebration. His family's on the field jumping around. It was again on a primetime game. Everyone was wide open. It's just something to think about. Okay, we'll think about it.
Starting point is 01:32:41 I feel like the NFL hates the Saints, though. Why? Because of Bounty Gate. There's never any coverage of the Saints, though. Nobody ever talks about the Saints until they're on a primetime game and it's Drew Brees breaking some record. Bounty Gate, they kind of had to because it kind of came out and they're like, God damn it, Saints. We're doing this for you. By the way, that guy's defense is not great this weekend
Starting point is 01:32:58 for Cleveland Browns. They need to opt out of Bounty. You did say Drew Brees is like Mr. Pro Bowl. He's like Mr. NFL. Maybe it's an inside thing. He's very much. He was like the consummate professional. I mean, every single. It was like we were at a real practice.
Starting point is 01:33:12 He was talking to me like it was a real thing. We're going to work hard today. It's like, who? Just something to think about. Bro, this is a Pro Bowl practice. I ain't doing shit. You got a fucking mouse in your pocket, Drew? Drew, who are we talking to?
Starting point is 01:33:26 Is this me and you having a conversation? Are you wired? Are you talking to me? Oh, you got a mic on? That was just a genuine. Oh, good for you, Drew. You're probably a great leader. Yeah, not me, though.
Starting point is 01:33:39 I'm going to go ahead and sit over here, man. Yeah, we just got beat by the Patriots by 50. There's this whole deflate gate thing happening. I might be in a Super Bowl, to be honest, next weekend, Drew. I got to kind of get out of here. Patriots might get... What would that be called? Expelled.
Starting point is 01:33:56 Extradited? That's not how that works. Do you remember that when that was happening? That was showing up in my... Extradited is not the word. That was showing up in my Twitter mentions not the word uh that was showing up in my twitter mentions disqualified disqualified there it is disqualified and i was i was wild to me i was very intoxicated when those things were showing up and i'm like oh look at us lose by 50 get to play in a super this is awesome i knew as bad because there are people who i know
Starting point is 01:34:22 don't watch football asking me about it. And I was like, okay. If this has reached this level, people all over the world are talking about this. So when Tom Brady comes back, he doesn't speak to anybody, by the way. He bleeds a fit to everybody and everything. Deflator text messages, that's just keep it moving. Let's move past it. By the way, players, I don't give a single fuck what you do.
Starting point is 01:34:42 If you can do something and it makes you better, just go ahead and do it. But if you get caught for doing it, now everybody knows there's a little bit of – Pay the price. If you can do something, it makes you better. Just go ahead and do it, right? But if you get caught for doing it, now everybody knows there's a little bit of – Pay the price. Yeah, you got to pay the price or whatever. But ball things are very interesting in the NFL because everybody likes their ball different, you know? But everybody has to play with one.
Starting point is 01:34:56 So it's a very interesting thing that we obviously thought got blown out of control, and he would not answer to anybody. He was not doing anything. And then he did a sit-down at a local college. Do you remember this? He did a sit-down at a local college do you remember this he did a sit down at a local college it was him and a guy talking to him and it was his first time speaking it was a small local college and he was up and there was an audience in the crowd and i never heard a group of people more behind somebody than that crowd right there it was unbelievable i don't think i remember this it was his first
Starting point is 01:35:24 time speaking when it all came out the whole world was crushing tom brady everybody was like oh he's a cheater the whole world was crushing him even after the super this was after the super bowl was in the off season the whole world was coming down on him and he comes and does one his first time speaking is at this paid gig at this high or at this little college that he definitely could have turned down i assume he could have passed on it. He said, no, he gets up there. And when I heard that crowd was just 100% on his side, I was like, bro, New England's going to ride or die
Starting point is 01:35:52 with this guy no matter what. And the guy that was doing the interview with him was tossing him just complete softballs. And Tom was like, well, I'm not going to talk about that. That's an ongoing thing. And then the crowd would lose their shit. And he's like, okay. Tom was like, all right.
Starting point is 01:36:06 I'm happy I did this. But it was an awesome moment up there for you New England folks. Well, after that was the Belichick-Brady fiasco. Do you remember that? No. Because Belichick was like, hey, I have no idea. Oh, that's on him. Yeah, he was like, I don't know.
Starting point is 01:36:18 Talk to Tom. And then everyone was like, Bill, what the fuck are you doing, buddy? I thought we were all friends on this team. I thought we were looking for how to do your job, man? I thought we were all friends on this team. I thought, do your job, man. I thought everyone was supposed to do their shit. 16 years together at that point, right? Probably 15 years together at that point? We've only missed one Super Bowl since.
Starting point is 01:36:34 No big deal. Humble brag. For 15 years? No, since the flaky. Oh, I'm talking about by that point, Tom and Belichick have been together 15 years at that point. They were about sick of each other already, and we've got a good thing here, though. I'm talking about by that point, Tom and Belichick had been together 15 years at that point. They were about sick of each other already, and we got a good thing here, though.
Starting point is 01:36:51 Josh McDaniels almost leaving the family was a wild move. A lot of people say the 15th year is that divorce year. It is. That's where they hit the rough patch, and they powered through. Did they? Yeah. You're saying they're in a good patch right now? Right now?
Starting point is 01:37:01 Yeah. Bill Belichick and Tom Brady? Yeah. Oh, yeah. I bet Belichick's kissing his kids on the forehead almost lips no one else gets it no no one else you think so yeah oh yeah i think i think the pats are golden right now and i said this to you before when they were doing the fun offensive lineman punt return shit i was like oh belichick's having a little fun yeah you guys said that no every patriot guy was telling me like oh that happens all the time happens all the time i'm just going strictly off of the Minnesota Timberwolves game.
Starting point is 01:37:28 Where I saw with my own two eyes Bill Belichick acting like a regular fucking human. And it was wild to me. And what they do. Lost the Super Bowl. Was that night before? Yeah. Two nights before. Two nights before.
Starting point is 01:37:37 He's acting like a regular ass human? That ain't the Belichick I know. Should have been in there watching film. What's the practice schedule for that? Like a couple days before? I'm not saying he should have. Saturday they have a walkthrough, and then they go to a hotel. Not that big of a deal.
Starting point is 01:37:48 I'm not saying he should do anything. I'm just saying that was very different than what the Belichick did. You know what I mean? That was different than what a standard Bill Belichick move would be. Normally, Bill Belichick not acting like he's an alien. Him and Tom Brady, both aliens. It's the only way you get to the top of that league. I'm sure something happened with Malcolm Butler. somewhere during those two weeks of the Super Bowl Malcolm
Starting point is 01:38:08 Butler woke up and was like I lost all of my talent and I think and I think that's where Belichick was like fuck okay I'm gonna go watch a basketball game then try and get a corner because you needed Malcolm Butler huh we would have helped I mean hey so he we're on we're on to Chicago what happened to malcolm butler though he gets benched right because they said he was doing bad it never got out right what happened what happened because tom brady was commenting on allegation there was a lot of mental breakdown allegation there's a couple things like he there's one rumor that he went to the coaches a couple nights before the game and was like crying like mental breakdown like
Starting point is 01:38:43 i don't know what's going on so then Belichick looks like a bad guy when really Belichick was probably trying to help him. Malcolm Butler this year is the worst cornerback in the NFL. We let him go. I mean, his last game for us would have been the Super Bowl. Worst corner in the NFL. Are you just saying that because you want to make – No, I'm saying that statistically.
Starting point is 01:38:57 If we could get some stats digs, I don't know. I mean, his – Why are you going to digs like that? Because his laptop's open. It's right there. He's dead. His – I don't know what it is. His coverage stats, whatever.
Starting point is 01:39:09 It was like he's been thrown at ten times, eight completions for 300 yards and, like, five touchdowns. Really? That was week three or four. So Belichick had to make the decision, like, this guy's lost it. We got to get out of here. And then he sits him. He's crying pregame.
Starting point is 01:39:23 First. Then you would think post-game, you would think somebody would come out and say something, but nobody said anything. Tom Brady even went on his Instagram. I was like, great teammate. Very lucky to be teammates with you. Have a good one, basically.
Starting point is 01:39:35 Which spins the narrative that Bill Belichick was fucking him. But really, it could have been Belichick helping him. Malcolm Butler is currently the worst corner in the NFL statistically. Yeah, lock that in. Has been targeted 17 times for 260 yards. You're quoting. You're not. That's not a... And I quote. That was for two weeks.
Starting point is 01:39:54 That was for two weeks. Oh, yeah. No, it has gotten worse. Two weeks, 17 completions, you said? For 260 yards and three touchdowns. That was at the end of week two. That's Malcolm Butler. So imagine if we play Butler in that Super Bowl, he does his whole little, I lost my like-miked shoes, I can't
Starting point is 01:40:09 play anymore. And then who's Belichick? Belichick's probably coaching fucking Indianapolis this year if he plays Malcolm Butler. So I'm going down with the ship. I don't care if Belichick and Brady ride us into 0-16. Well, you kind of have to because of all the fun you've had. You have to go down with them.
Starting point is 01:40:26 It's like if this is the greatest cruise of all time, let's at least ride the cruise until it goes all the way down. That's basically what you're doing. Yeah, it's not a bad deal at all. Boy, they look fucking good again. It's very annoying because that Chiefs team, I thought they were it. Now granted, Andy Reid's season does end in week six.
Starting point is 01:40:41 Andy Reid's season does end in week six. Something happens for the next few weeks and then Andy Reid pops back end in week six. Andy Reid season does end in week six. Something happens for the next few weeks, and then Andy Reid pops back. The Chiefs defense is tough. It's like on pace to allow a record number of yards. They also use all their plays in the first five weeks, and then everyone sees them, and they don't have them anymore. That might be why it's Andy Reid season. He spends all offseason, Kool-Aid man,
Starting point is 01:40:59 spends all offseason drawing up these heaters of plays. This is 100%er, this is 100%er, this is a 100%er, this is a 100%er, and there's no discipline just to save some for week six past. Every offseason he works on the water boy playbook that got stolen from the water boy coach. And he can only, because he's Andy Reid, so he's got time to have a nice little diet going on in there. So he has so much time to drop five weeks of plays.
Starting point is 01:41:22 Could you imagine that, though, if that is the case? If every offseason he's just like this mad wizard on like, let's say it's on the windows, like a beautiful mind. And he's like, all right, he draws in like the cheetah. Okay, we got Tyreek Hill here. Okay, we got Travis Kelsey. Oh, yeah, that'll be great. We'll do that.
Starting point is 01:41:38 Boom. Okay. Then we'll do this. He draws up like 50 plays, and then he gets into the games, and he just can't help it. He's like, oh, that one play I drew up that would crush right now what do you think we save it though for later maybe
Starting point is 01:41:49 no no no we need it right now it's third and two here first week we need it right now what if he just spews his load so early that week 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11 he's back on the beautiful mind board that's why they come back in the second half of the season because he's
Starting point is 01:42:05 back with new plays. What if that's what happens to the Kool-Aid man? We just figured that one out. Andy Reid season. We just figured it out. So look for Pat Mahomes, Tyreek Hill, Travis Kelsey, Kareem Hunt week 10 with some brand new plays. It's going to be awesome. That's wild. That defense does look like a sieve though.
Starting point is 01:42:22 Yeah, it's not good. They look like a sieve. Once Justin Houston comes back, they'll be better. Dee Ford almost got to Brady a few times. He should have tried to get Khalil, man. Kansas City should have tried to get him. Well, they traded Marcus Peters because he didn't want to be there anymore. And then Eric Berry's hurt. And they've got to save their money.
Starting point is 01:42:36 They can't pay for Khalil. They've got to pay Mahomes, Hunt, and Tyreek Hill. I don't know about Hill. When's that? Two years from now for Mahomes, though. Same for Hunt. Two years. Yeah, they were drafted in the same draft.
Starting point is 01:42:46 So they got two years still. And Tyreek Hill was the year before that. So he's got like a year. They got another year. You could have paid Khalil Mack up front. If you have the cash, by the way, to just write a check to the NFL, the Raiders didn't have enough for Khalil Mack. That team looks like dog shit.
Starting point is 01:42:59 There you go. Bro. Derek Carr was crying. What? Oh, yeah. What do you mean? He got sacked and he was almost bawling. Ty watched the video earlier.
Starting point is 01:43:08 Ty made me very uncomfortable. He was breaking down. He was the intro to a cry. He needed that walk off the field bad to gather. The lip quiver? Nope, that's not it. That sounded a lot like a dick song. Those both happened together. It sounded a lot like a dick song.
Starting point is 01:43:26 Those both happening together. It sounded a lot like a dick song. Yeah, I'm not good at sound effects. You're great at accents, though. Thank you. Appreciate that. No problem. Oh, fuck it, Derek calls on the field. They were in England.
Starting point is 01:43:37 Fucking crying like a bloody pisser. Bro, that England trip is tough, though. I will say that. From the West Coast. From the West Coast, too. That is a tough trip. Especially, they won on Friday, too, I think. The Raiders did, and the Seahawks went on Wednesday,
Starting point is 01:43:50 so not a good move there by Gruden. Gruden's off to hot start. We went on Friday as well, because our strength and conditioning coach was there with another team, and I guess they lost or something doing it the other way. So their idea was, well, he doing it the other way so their idea was well he knew that the other way didn't work so we might as well try this way so we get there on like late friday saturday you barely even you don't even catch up to the time zone it's just like oh we're
Starting point is 01:44:16 still living in america basically game happens and then you since we lost we had to wait for the jaguars to go through customs first before us, and then we go through. Obviously, I have a 10-edible situation happening while going through TSA. That's one of my favorite moments in my NFL career, me almost having a full panic attack going through TSA. Vinatieri just watching me, hoping I don't die or get stuck, losing my fucking ticket from the TSA check to the gate.
Starting point is 01:44:44 How do you even lose your ticket from there? Wild, wild, wild afternoon. Gruden is one bad first down or strip sack call away from being 0-6. Yeah, that first down thing against Cleveland Browns is the only reason why he won. McCrane missed and then makes it. I forgot all about that. It could be 0-6.
Starting point is 01:45:03 $100 million. $100 million. It's starting 0-6. 100 million. It's starting to become, is Gruden tanking for the number one pick? Did he just from the beginning say, oh, I got 10 years here. I'll trade the guy I got. Go 2-14. It's a marathon, not a sprint. Not a bad idea. That's what I'm saying. And then he just gets, okay, I got
Starting point is 01:45:19 a top three pick. I'll get a quarterback. Derek Carr sucks all of a sudden. He's crying. What was he crying for? Because he got hit? Yeah. I think so. You know what, though? I'm going to be honest. I haven't hit once. I don't know. I'm just crying. I can't judge him. He was taking a beating all game, too. I can't judge him, man. I cry, too.
Starting point is 01:45:36 Mariota got sacked 11 times, and he wasn't crying. Bro, the Ravens picking up 11. The Raiders are bad. We all know that. Very bad. But they're bad on purpose, you're saying. Yeah, I think, I mean, for- Okay, we'll get rid of Crabtree. We're bringing a white guy.
Starting point is 01:45:49 How do we get worse? Let's- We're getting our best player. Khalil Mack, he's just $90. It's a lot of guaranteed money, man. While he's sitting on $100 million guaranteed. What a fucking lunatic. But in three years, if they're really good,
Starting point is 01:46:04 all of a sudden- People will be like, wow. Oh, this guy's a genius. What a move. Remember what they were when Gruden got there. His first year, they were 2-14. I hope not, because I don't want to see teams start tanking like in the NBA. Well, the Colts did, I guess.
Starting point is 01:46:17 I was on a team that did, and I wish they would have given me a heads up we were doing that. Fucking just almost broke the most punt record for the year. I was not prepared for it. But Mathis says that there were some calls. Not Mathis. Yeah, I think it was Mathis. I don't remember if it was Mathis or somebody else. But somebody on the defense said there was like a third and one or something.
Starting point is 01:46:37 And the call was basically like a zone almost on a third and one. And they were starting to come off on the sideline like, what the fuck are we calling? And it was like starting to put, they were come off on the sideline. I'm like, what the fuck are we calling? And there was just like, Oh, we thought it was where we thought we had a thing. And there was a couple of times where I heard a couple of players be like,
Starting point is 01:46:54 bro, they're trying to lose. It seems like they're trying to lose with these picks. And then they all got fired. Everybody got fired. So everybody that are say either had sucking for luck or if they actually were sucking for luck, it costs them their,
Starting point is 01:47:04 all their jobs completely. So it's a wild, wild, wild, wild sea. The first thing you do in a conspiracy is get rid of everyone. That was anything about it. Plausible deniability.
Starting point is 01:47:14 But you think that they would come out and say, you would think somebody would come out and be like, yeah, that year you guys were saying we're stuck for luck. We were making calls. We were trying to throw pick sixes. We, we knew people would be sitting
Starting point is 01:47:25 on routes trying it almost felt like for me i was just i have to punt every three place here i go i have to punt or a pick it's either a punt or a pick and i knew nothing about it but there was some rumblings i would hear from players that were like that call was the worst call in the history of calls. And it's like, wait. Then me as a woke human, I'm like, is it really out? Are we really? Are the coaches reading it on us? It's just wild if this is really happening. And then you just kind of push it back down. You just suppress it.
Starting point is 01:47:59 You suppress it back down. And then you go into the next game, and you don't hear anybody talk about anything, but maybe we lose by 60, and it's like, it can't be that bad. We're losing by a lot. We punted 10 times in one half. In one half, we had like nine punts. Nine punts in one half.
Starting point is 01:48:18 It's hard to even get that many possessions. One was blocked for a touchdown. It was unbelievable. I go unblocked for like a negative net. And with how many punts we had, I think I was still averaging like 40-some with how many punts we had. It was insane. It was absolutely insane.
Starting point is 01:48:36 There was somebody on the offensive side of the ball. I forget what position coach he was. He wasn't Clyde Christensen or the coordinator or anything like that. It was a positional coach. It might have been like a ga or something like that and i was practicing and i needed the whole field because i was i was hitting the ball very far that day and it was like week seven or week eight or something like that and they're like oh we got to give the punter the entire field so he can get some work and i looked over i was like well with the way y'all motherfuckers are running your offense,
Starting point is 01:49:07 I should probably be practicing a lot more than I've ever been. Instead of that seven-on-seven drill, why don't you just have me come out and punt in the middle of it because that's what the end's going to be like. And everybody's just like, oh, dude. Dude. Dude. I was like, yeah, that was rude. That was fucked up of me.
Starting point is 01:49:19 I shouldn't have said that. I just can't help it, though. I just can't fucking help it to say that. You know what I mean? It happens. Yeah, but don't come at me. I just can't fucking help it to say that. You know what I mean? It happens. Yeah, but that... But don't come at me. I'm not trying to punch this much.
Starting point is 01:49:29 That was just like what it was in Twitter. That was just like back in the day when it was Twitter. Somebody opens the door and I would just come in too hard. You know what I mean? I would just come in too hard. So you don't have to be that rude. Oh, we got to give the partner a full field.
Starting point is 01:49:40 Who's that talking? In my head, it's like, who the fuck? I don't even know this motherfucker's name. I know since he's been here that we haven't won a fucking game and it's just I can't help it I just can't help it
Starting point is 01:49:51 we used to call that going cutthroat like dude dude it ain't no reason to go cutthroat hey hey hey easy
Starting point is 01:49:56 we're just jousing we're just jabbing here but speaking of players questioning calls there was a video after Steeler Cincy of Burfik walking in the locker room
Starting point is 01:50:04 being like why the fuck did we call that blitz on the play that Antonio Brown scored? We haven't even ran that in practice all week. I'll tell you, it's very interesting watching the politics of plays that get called and don't get called. And it was interesting watching from like when Peyton was running it, he was calling everything.
Starting point is 01:50:21 Subs, he would send you back off the field if he didn't want you on it. It was everything he was calling everything. Subs, he would send you back off the field if he didn't want you on it. It was everything he was calling. And then watching Gary Brackett basically call the defense there for a while. And then the transition happened where coaches are phoning it in and calling in. It's very interesting to see the plan on every Wednesday morning, there's a whole team meeting where they go through the entire plan. If we want to win on offense, the offense coordinator gets up there. These are our goals. This is what we have to do. On defense, if we want to win on offense this is the offense coordinator gets up there these are our goals this is what we have to do on defense if we want to win this is who we
Starting point is 01:50:49 got to stop we got to put pressure on this guy this this whether it's attack or guard is the weak chain we got to attack this guy if we want to have any hope we got to disrupt the wide receivers if we want to get them off there anything like that it's in front of the whole team so we all listen to them explain yeah so it's like accountability almost right and then you get into the game and you start watching the things and for my first couple years of those wednesdays meetings i would have no clue what was going on they were talking so far over my motherfucking head i had no idea what was going on vinit terry and i would just be like trying to catch up like oh we're running a safety blitz is there a corner blitz oh got it i thought we'd see you see the arrow out there that's on me i didn't know and then you would see it in the game happy you're like oh we're running a safety blitz is there a corner blitz oh got it i thought we see you see the arrow
Starting point is 01:51:25 out there that's on me i didn't know and then you would see it in a game happy like oh we predicted this but then whenever the years were getting bad all the shit that was talked about on wednesday if you actually paid attention none of it was happening on sunday and it's not because the players at all times sometimes coaches get scared to call things the coordinators get real fucking tight because they're humans too. Everybody thinks about players getting nervous. Everybody thinks about, oh, this is a big situation. The players are nervous.
Starting point is 01:51:50 Those coaches who have moved their families 45 times already and slept in their office for 14 hours a night and everything like that or in their office 14 hours a day, they get real nervous too. And then in those follow-up meetings, there's very rarely much accountability from the coaches being like, yo, like yo yo hey remember we were supposed to run this motherfucking play and we never ran it there's only been a couple times where i've seen that happen in the meeting after where the the coordinator gets like put on a spot almost like yeah this and it only happens whenever a leader a vet steps up and he's like we had this we chose not to call it you know i had to
Starting point is 01:52:24 do it one time because we had an onside kick that was wide open, and we refused to call it. Refused to call it. And we lost the game. And in the Monday meeting, we're going through the film, and whenever the look was there, I had to say, Chuck was sitting right in front of me in the special teams meeting. Tom McMahon's doing a meeting.
Starting point is 01:52:39 And I go, we could have hit the onside kick right here. And then Tom McMahon stops and looks at me, and he's like, okay. We lost, so the tensions are tighter, whatever. We hit the onside kick right here. And then Tom McMahon like stops and looks at me. And he's like, okay, we lost. So the tensions are tighter, whatever. We go to the next kickoff. We could have hit the onside kick here. I say again, like loud. And Chuck's right in front of me, right?
Starting point is 01:52:54 And Chuck's trying not to turn around and engage with me. All I'm trying to do though, is engage with Chuck Pagano why he didn't call it a fucking onside kick. So then the next kickoff comes. I'm like, again, onside kick wide open right here i have no idea why we didn't run it in chuck kosher i don't know either i don't know why we didn't call it and then tom mcmahon has to go like well it's not my job to call it basically so now we got a
Starting point is 01:53:14 situation and where we were on a little bit of a losing streak i was like well we say we're going to practice all these things you guys got me beating the fuck out of my toe hitting these onside kicks in practice ruining my hip basically and if we're not going to call them i'm not going to kick them in practice anymore basically and it was like a moment where tom mcmahon was like we'll keep working them buddy we'll keep working them and it was almost like a just shut the fuck up so i had to stop and then i got called out obviously afterwards it's like you can't do that in the team meeting in front of everybody. And I was like, well,
Starting point is 01:53:45 you can't have me work on all these things and us doing practice and then not calling it a game. Cause you look bad. It's not, it's not that I look bad. You look bad for not calling it. And they're like, well,
Starting point is 01:53:54 you got to remember though, the risk versus reward of all this thing. I was like, oh, I don't even think about it failing to be honest. They're like, we know. I was like,
Starting point is 01:54:02 God, that might be the difference between you and me. I don't even think about this failing. And that was when Chuck was like, that might be the difference between you and me. I don't even think about this failing. And that was when Chuck was like, yeah, you don't think about Dewey dropping the perfect pass, but we have to think of those things. I'm like, ah, you're 100% right. That's on me for that.
Starting point is 01:54:15 But it is one of those situations where players, we've been around the game a long time too. It's not like college, it's not like high school, or whatever the coach says is the final answer. It's like players. Vin Terry's been in the fucking game for 23 years so if he has an idea let's assume that it might be better than your fucking idea guy that has won four superbowls and is it the greatest you know what i mean it's a wild in that case he's like motherfucker i'm the one who has to
Starting point is 01:54:39 fucking tackle that big ass bear like yes like to blitz him and when the game's on the line like that that's what i mean that would would be what not to do, right? That's the difference, though. Ben Roethlisberger? That's the difference, though, of coaches that have played and coaches who haven't played. And that's why you see players respect the coaches who have played because they're not just drawing it on a board and being like,
Starting point is 01:55:01 okay, this X runs at this speed to get to here. You do a 90-degree angle and okay this x runs at this speed to get to here you do a 90 degree angle and you block this o at this side because it's like yo i can't do that yeah like you need to make that o way bigger and pretend he can drag two x's 10 yards to the right while throwing the ball the whole strategy though in football is insane the amount of thinking that's going on because the amount of money that's being paid to people to think is insane. And that's why the Patriots are in such a good spot. And because
Starting point is 01:55:30 we don't have any GM, head coach problems. We don't run into those problems. One guy. One guy. One guy to rule them all. Will that ever happen again? McVay might get that. McVay might get that shot at some point. I feel like if it's a younger coach, it's like a McVay.
Starting point is 01:55:47 Yeah, if his progress is there, then they'll give it to him. But also it's tough for organizations who have a GM to get rid of one and then be like, okay, we'll just make our head coach Belichick. Chip Kelly, they did that with Chip in Philadelphia. That backfired quickly. Yeah, and then they got rid of everyone. Kiko, gone. Basically everyone that he Yeah, and then they got rid of everyone. Kiko, gone. Basically, everyone that he got, yeah, they got rid of.
Starting point is 01:56:07 Chip Kelly had everybody pissing every single morning to check their piss. Every single morning they had to pee. Weigh in, check this, check that, weigh out. Like a whole college. Here's your protein bar directly after your workout. Here's your shake mix just for you. Here's your diet. Here's what you can eat, what you can't eat.
Starting point is 01:56:33 Wow. Which is probably, in theory a great idea in theory a great idea but chad ochocinco ate mcdonald's every single day of his life right every single day of his life and he was one of the best core wide receivers in the game yeah it's like there's different strokes for different blokes you know that's the difference between college and pros is like in college the thought that you have to regulate everybody's life is a real one because there's a strokes for different blokes, you know? That's the difference between college and pros. It's like in college, the thought that you have to regulate everybody's life is a real one because there's a lot of temptation and you've got a lot of immaturity. But in the NFL, it's like, yes, there's some people who are definitely idiots, but, yo, those idiots are probably really good at football
Starting point is 01:56:58 if they're in the NFL. So let's just let them do their thing. Yeah, it's a very interesting dynamic of like having a give and take yeah a respectable schedule respectable expectations versus being in a like over abundant or not over abundant over micromanaging yeah like a micromanage situation that's why the college coaches don't work in the nfl you rarely see it pete carroll has worked because he had to legion of boom there for a while but you rarely see it because it's every minute of somebody's life being regulated to a lot more freedom.
Starting point is 01:57:28 Wasn't that Harbaugh's problem too? Oh, yeah. Saban, Greg Sciano. Harbaugh, Saban, Sciano, all of you. Because in college, they are the dictator. They are literally Kim Jong-un at their place. All of these people are my followers. They can't do anything without me.
Starting point is 01:57:43 If they don't want to do what I tell them to do drop their scholarship they're right back to the hood if they want it they'll go right back out of school they're going nowhere you are every single minute we got study hall at this time so the kids can't go anywhere we got food at this time we got workout we got conditioning we got this we got that you try to control every single minute because to be honest you probably need it as uh 18 19 year old probably need it. 18, 19-year-old, probably need it. But then once you become an adult, Petrino is another one. Petrino or Petrino? Petrino is another one. I guess he was hated.
Starting point is 01:58:10 Is it because you just become a player and then you just get paid and you're like, I don't got to take that shit? No, it's because I'm an adult. Like, hey, man, I'm an adult now. He's doing that to 35-year-olds. I have kids. You can't treat me like a kid. Yeah, it's like, hey, bub, listen, I'm paid more than you are, okay?
Starting point is 01:58:25 Right. I am worth more than you are to this team, and I'm an adult, and whenever I get here, I'm going to do my job, and I'm going to do it very well. And if I don't, cut me. That's what I always said with the Colts. Like, hey, what do I do? I send some tweets out.
Starting point is 01:58:39 I say the fuck word every once in a while. If I don't do my job well, cut me then. I don't care. But if I'm doing my job great, just leave me the fuck alone. once in a while. If I don't do my job well, cut me then. I don't care. But if I'm doing my job great, just leave me the fuck alone. This is our work. This isn't like, this is work. That's what this is.
Starting point is 01:58:51 When you know you're really good and then some other team's going to grab you up right away, that's supposed to be so liberating. Oh, it's very nice. It's very nice to be like, yeah, what are you going to cut me? Is that what you're going to do? No, you're going to find me.
Starting point is 01:59:03 Oh, okay. It's a cool feeling to have to just look at a guy, you're going to cut me? Is that what you're going to do? No, you're going to find me. Oh, okay. It's a cool feeling to have, to just look at a guy. You're going to cut me? Okay, cut me. Will Jim Mercy let you cut me right now? I don't know. You tell me. Why don't you do that?
Starting point is 01:59:12 That would be a cool conversation. I wish I could go back time knowing what I know now. Right. In that last conversation I had with the GM, have that the first conversation with him. It would have been beautiful. It would have just been absolutely. Hey, let's get this relationship on the right step here.
Starting point is 01:59:27 Let's go ahead and let you know how I feel. It's awesome. Hey, Connor, is Patriot scared of anything? No. Okay, good. Just failure. So you are. Maybe.
Starting point is 01:59:39 Maybe a little losing in there. It's not like I want to go back to the Super Bowl and lose, okay? It's tough. It takes a toll. I've been through three of them already. It must suck to be a fan and that be your fears. I'm afraid we might lose in the Super Bowl.
Starting point is 01:59:53 Right now, I still have the World Series on my mind still. There's a lot of things going for me. I want to hit a couple things here before we get out of here. The Cowboys fucked me. I had a five game parlay going patty parlay i talked about it earlier with my bookie patty parlay i had five game five bet going all of a sudden the cowboys become a juggernaut on offense they score 40
Starting point is 02:00:15 points alone bust the game over in half and my parlay 16 to 1 parlay i was about to win. 16-1. $250 to $4,000 parlay because Dak Prescott and Zeke and Conor McGregor and Jerry Jones decided to thump the Jacksonville Jaguars out of nowhere, by the way. That came out of nowhere. Jalen Ramsey, tough post-game interview. It was.
Starting point is 02:00:43 Did you at least bet all five of those by themselves as well? No. Of course not. Of course not. That's tough. Conor McGregor, proper 12. Get the fuck out of this. Can I get a heads up?
Starting point is 02:00:55 Can I get a heads up whenever he's showing up? Can I get a fucking heads up that he's walking in there, giving a pregame speech, shot putting a football in the middle of the field? I saw him wearing a cowboy hat. Pretty awesome look for him. He can do whatever he wants. Conor McGregor can do it.
Starting point is 02:01:09 He just lost. Incredible suit. He just lost. He lost his fight. Yep. But he won in life. He's getting standing ovations from the cowboys. He's getting standing ovations.
Starting point is 02:01:20 He can do whatever he wants because he has so much swagger. It's unbelievable. That suit was fucking phenomenal. Apparently, he wants to fight in Jerry World. Yeah, he said that. He said put the octagon in here or whatever. And Khabib wants to fight Mayweather apparently now. What are you going to get?
Starting point is 02:01:34 Are you going to get fucking, it would be on the big screen, I guess. When you're there, it's hard not to just watch the big screen. I was a Jumbotron watcher as a punter on the field. I would watch the Jumbotron instead of the field in front of me because it's just a much better view. But when you're at Jerry World, you're on the sideline, it's hard not to look straight up at the Jumbotron
Starting point is 02:01:51 because it's like 4K. It's the size of the football. It's a 60-yard HD. Does your neck hurt after staring at it, though? No, but if you look at any photos of anybody there, you'll see them all just looking straight up. That's the way it is. It's very hard not to because it's so damn.
Starting point is 02:02:08 So you could do a fight there because everybody in the building is watching on the jumbotron anyways it would be awesome that'd be a hell of a payday for old conor mcgregor was it a hundred thousand yep yeah he's packing out a hundred thousand people plus pay-per-view you think conor mcgregor would get a hundred thousand people there i bet he would oh yeah for sure no doubt because if he if it does happen it it's going to be Khabib McGregor or Khabib, however the fuck you say it. Don't disrespect his name, country, religion. I'm just saying, however you say it. He'll come play the drums on your face, dude.
Starting point is 02:02:34 Yeah, but you just said it. I'd like to see it. I'd like to see it, too. I think a lot of people would like to see it after a little statement. I'd be down if it's in fucking Cowboy Stadium. Yeah, I'll fight him, sure. You think Khabib McGregor, too, would sell 100,000 tickets? No.
Starting point is 02:02:50 No way. After that. For a chance of a fight, see a fight after the game. At big stadiums like that, they don't do that. Canelo and Triple G. It'd be even more because it'd fill up the field, too. So it's like 120,000. They do that.
Starting point is 02:03:01 They're not going to sell tickets all the way at the top, I don't think. What's the highest, what's the biggest venue they've done so far? I don't know, but 100,000 tickets is a lot of fucking tickets. That's a lot of tickets. Yeah. But he's the king of promotion. I mean, he's not going to do that if he doesn't think he can sell it. He would have to be the right guy that he's fighting against. I don't know if it would be Khabib because he's already lost.
Starting point is 02:03:24 So I don't know if the interest is there for enough people. Maybe if him and Floyd box again. He and Diaz maybe. I'd rather watch Khabib and Conor versus. I would too, but I could see a lot of people who would be turned off. I wouldn't mind watching Khabib-Conor again
Starting point is 02:03:37 with stipulations. No going to the ground? Yeah. For UFC record, 56,214 is the record. What is it? 56,214. That's what I'm saying, dude. 100,000 tickets is a lot of fucking tickets, man.
Starting point is 02:03:53 It was Holly Holmes and Ronda Rousey. Which was also the McGregor fight. You have to fly over half of Ireland. Maybe all of Ireland. We're taking Dublin this time. 100,000 tickets is a lot of tickets. I agree, but... I still think he could do it.
Starting point is 02:04:10 That is so much money. Jerry Jones plus Conor McGregor, 100,000 people in there. Easy. Promoting it out of nowhere. Dana White, too. You probably get WWE in there, too. You bring Brock Lesnar in. You get Brock Lesnar. See, that's what they would do. Conor McGreg too. You bring Brock Lesnar in. You get Brock Lesnar. See, that's what they would do.
Starting point is 02:04:25 Conor McGregor. You get Brock Lesnar in there with Conor McGregor. Fighting DC or something. Yeah. Then you have a potential. And Jon Jones. Jon Jones. That's like a super card, right?
Starting point is 02:04:36 That's what they would do. Would they? Do we know if they're smart enough to do that? We could call them. Seems like we just gave them the idea. WrestleMania, bro. That's what you do. So you do Jon Jones fighting somebody, Brock Lesnar fighting somebody and conor mcgregor fighting somebody
Starting point is 02:04:48 you do it in jerry world 100 000 tickets probably would be sold to that yeah i mean brock lesnar sells out arenas still just wrestling let alone fighting some human again yeah that would probably do it it wouldn't just be couldn't just be connor, I don't think. No. Conor's an animal. Yeah. Conor is quite a draw. But you add in Jon Jones. And can Jon Jones and Brock Lesnar fight? Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:05:13 Jon Jones can fight heavyweight. He probably walks around at like 230, I would guess. Yeah. He could put on weight easily, too. He's a massive fighter. He wants to. He said in the past that he wants to fight Brock Lesnar. So that would be a fight just like Khabib, just like Matriot and Bader, right?
Starting point is 02:05:29 Brett Lesnar would just take down Jon Jones? I don't know. I think Jon would put it easily. Jon Jones' takedown defense is very good, and he's so long. Jon Jones used to just toy with people. He was so good into all of his troubles. What was that, years ago? He's fighting again in December, his first fight back.
Starting point is 02:05:45 They're saying he snitched on somebody. That's how he got his... Really? That's what they're saying. They say he snitched on somebody. Got a light sentence. Got a lighter sentence because he snitched on somebody. Whatever gets him back.
Starting point is 02:05:51 But he used to dominate folks. Yeah. He was the future. He was the one. And then all this shit started happening. He started acting like getting caught up in a bunch of bullshit. A lot of Dan Marino stuff. I mean, he has high-level college wrestling.
Starting point is 02:06:03 So he... Yeah. It's a different animal. Where Matt Mitriol just never wrestled. Bro. I would say, too, on that card, you throw Derek Lewis on there, it automatically sells. Oh, the Black Beast. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 02:06:16 I would love to see that. The Black Beast, Jon Jones, Brock Lesnar, and Conor McGregor on the same fight card. What about this? Maybe they bring Herschel Walker out of it. Maybe they throw him in there. Huh? Greg Hardy. Herschel Walker, Greg Hardy.
Starting point is 02:06:33 That's the opening fight. Probably Brock Lesnar, John Jones, right? And then Daniel Cormier, Derek Lewis, which is actually happening in December. Cormier and Derek Lewis. That's a championship fight. Yeah, but I think Brock Lesnar, Jon Jones would be after that fight.
Starting point is 02:06:49 Yeah, that'd be the co-main event. In my head, that would be after that fight. Probably a bigger draw than even Conor and Khabib. I think so, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Jon Jones returning is huge. I hope he stays in for a while.
Starting point is 02:07:01 I forgot how good he was. He was the best. He's like no one has ever, like even as good as Conor is, like Jon Jones is the best guy in any weight class to ever have fought. Do you remember in Baltimore when he came out to the Ray Lewis intro? Oh, I was there for it. I was actually there for it.
Starting point is 02:07:16 And he did the Ray Lewis intro in Baltimore and he came out and he just fucked with a guy for like three rounds. But whenever the intro started and he was on the Jumbototron his brother art was on the ravens at the time it was the roof almost got blown off of that place and i was like oh here's this is the guy for this is the guy for ufc and he was literally toying with a guy he was toying with him he it was very obvious that at any moment he could have ended the fight he was just fucking with the guy he would do that straight arm and then elbow right to the guy's face and then right back. Like you're playing with a child almost,
Starting point is 02:07:48 just like bouncing off his head and then elbow to the face. And I remember thinking, this guy is the guy. And then bang, disappears. What is that? That's probably two years almost, two, three years. And that was Stephan, the guy that fought in the first Ultimate Fighter. Oh, Bonner? Stephan Bonner. And Stephan Bonner? Stefan Bonner.
Starting point is 02:08:05 And Stefan Bonner at that time was no joke. And he was playing around with him. Fucking with him. Yeah. That would be awesome if the Cowboys, if that happened there. That'd be great. All right, a couple other things.
Starting point is 02:08:16 Brock and Chip, Miami, it's happening. Yep. I couldn't be happier. You love that. It just couldn't be happier. I'm nervous. One thing I'm scared of, Brock. Write that down.
Starting point is 02:08:27 You should be. Patriots fans, Brock Osweiler, do not go well together. This guy, I don't understand. It's just like the Josh Allen thing in Buffalo, where Peterman comes in, throws a pick six, and it's like, why isn't Kaepernick in the league? Brock Osweiler, same thing. You're like, why is Kaepernick not in the league?
Starting point is 02:08:42 It's hard not to say that. Brock's an STD, man. You think you got rid of him, but then he comes flaring back up. We were talking about Andy Reid season, but broccoli season is going to be great. Brocktober. He pissed off. Broccoli season. That's what he said.
Starting point is 02:08:55 No, I said Brocktober. You said broccoli. No, you said broccoli season. Kind of like broccoli. I think it's National Take a Hike Day. I honestly believe it's National Take a Hike. It can't be. I think believe it's national take a hike. It can't be.
Starting point is 02:09:06 I think it is. It was last week. No, no, no. It was coming up, I said. I think it's today. See you later. Take a nice little broccoli hike. Take your holster. Take your holster.
Starting point is 02:09:18 I'll see you later. Do a lap. Just one little hot lap. Is broccoli just like the most amazing quarterback in practice? Is that how he stays in the locker room? I have no idea. Who the fuck knows, man? I have no clue.
Starting point is 02:09:29 I honestly have no idea. It's like Peterman. What is Peterman doing? I have no idea how this guy remains in there. U.S. retail icon Sears files for bankruptcy. It's a real shame. It's tough. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:09:38 It's the end of an era. I used to go get my pictures taken there. Atta boy. A little family photo. Yeah, yeah. Good pose with the block. My mom once bought me and my brother matching FUBU jerseys. I said, oh, mom, you just...
Starting point is 02:09:49 I don't think you'd get this. I said on Twitter that Sears, I never went there, but I always liked knowing it was around. It's just like my grandpa. Because they were like the jack of all trades, master of none, you know what I mean? You could do a little bit of everything, but nothing you would want them to do for you personally. to work at sears he was security guard drove a camaro
Starting point is 02:10:09 tackled a guy jumped out of his camaro tackled a guy stealing a vcr from sears oh yeah what a frank moraldo legendary story right there welcome back zito you didn't miss much broccoli it was tough to listen to. Sears. Sears is like the man place. You go there, you feel like a man. I always felt like Tim Allen. It was a cool place to walk around. But I never know what any of it does.
Starting point is 02:10:35 Yeah, and it was interesting, too, because the death of them was Lowe's and Best Buy and all that, because it was like a watered-down version of Lowe's, watered-down version of Best Buy, but it was all in one place, I guess, was their thing. Sam's Club,, that shit. Ariana Grande and Pete Davidson have split up. That's too bad. What does he do with all his tattoos?
Starting point is 02:10:52 Wait, what? Just gets new ones. He has like seven of them of her. You never would have guessed they were going to break up. Didn't seem like that one was rushed at all. Didn't seem like there was no decision making happening at all during that whole thing. Didn't seem like that was, I mean, somebody tweeted it out because Ariana Grande was getting crushed for didn't seem like that was a i mean somebody tweeted it out because ariana grande was getting crushed for this just like she was with
Starting point is 02:11:09 me she had a terrorist attack at one of her concerts her ex-boyfriend dies of od and she's currently breaking up an engagement she's had a rough time ariana grande is on a code red right now that is it is it's a wild world she's living in like she had some kind of wake-up call was like oh what am i doing no no pete davidson no you think that's what it was yeah she had some kind of uh things got better in her life real quick and she was like i think maybe she just realized what she was doing there she was like mac just died i had a terrorist attack at my one concert now i'm dating this guy with butthole eyes yeah maybe she just looked at a picture of those two and we're just like what the fuck am i doing
Starting point is 02:11:50 yeah something woke her up you think something was something in her group you think it was something in a group you're saying it was something that she got rid of yeah because otherwise how do you keep doing that in the morning how do you keep waking up every day thinking oh this is the guy i should be with this is is shot after shot at Pete Davidson, by the way. I don't know if he deserves this. This is probably what's happening across all channels at the moment right now. Nobody feels bad for Pete Davidson at the moment. Everybody's like, good for Ariana finally figuring it out.
Starting point is 02:12:20 But what if this was all just set up by their agents? That's what I think. For sure. This is all set up by their agents, just like what I think. For sure. This is all set up by their agents, just like what happened with Taylor Swift and all her relationships before. Now she's a megastar. But what if this is all set up by their agents
Starting point is 02:12:34 to both get them both a little bit more pub? Ariana Grande, definitely a big superstar before then, but every move she made with Pete Davidson was in the news, in the tabloids, everything like that. It feels as if there's a potential chance that this could have been set up by agents and if that's the case then they both won i think because it was quite a talking point for the whole thing and that could have been like hook her up with more of like an american sweetheart up-and-comer guy is that what you're thinking like an image type thing i think everybody knew her as mac ariana garne was
Starting point is 02:13:04 obviously a big name. But she was known as Mac Miller's girlfriend too for a while there. Big Sean. To a lot of people. Big Sean as well. So this was like, oh, here we go. It's a whole new chapter. She's with a new guy.
Starting point is 02:13:16 She's doing new things. She's got new music out. Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom. It's like an agent move almost. It feels like it's almost an agent move. And then maybe they hung out and they did enjoy each other. They're like, yeah, this is cool. Let's keep doing it. And then the agents are like, how about you guys get engaged? It's not that big of a deal. It feels like it's almost an agent move. And then maybe they hung out and they did enjoy each other. They're like, yeah, this is cool. Let's keep doing it.
Starting point is 02:13:26 And then the agents are like, how much are you guys getting engaged? It's not that big of a deal. It won't really happen. Because they were doing all that little shit. Remember it all, it was like Pete Davidson gave her like the ring that is great.
Starting point is 02:13:35 They were awfully public about it. Yeah, his dad gave her. And then the tattoo. And then all that. It was very, it all seemed very choreographed to me. But. I'd love to pile on,
Starting point is 02:13:43 but it's lasted longer than anything I got going on. Yeah, it's good for him. I guess I don't feel sorry for him because, hey, good for you. You were there. Goldman Sachs new CEO David Solomon also moonlights as a top-charting DJ, a.k.a. DJ D-Soul. Is that real, Ty? That is very real.
Starting point is 02:14:01 The top guy at Goldman Sachs own it's its own little money market where they just print money for themselves they are the wolves of wall street goldman sachs is their own wall street there's stories where if you just get a job at goldman sachs you're going to be rich forever it's just if you get in the door at goldman sachs you're printing your own money the guy who is in charge now whenever they they finally leave the stock, he goes, puts on headphones and fucking presses play in front of a group of people at a nightclub that are all on drugs. The video I saw, he was like fucking spinning big time.
Starting point is 02:14:39 DJ D-Soul, guys? Yeah. Does he have anything on Spotify? DJ D-Soul have anything on Spotify? DJ D'soul have anything on Spotify? I assume he was just at one of these DJ parties one time, and he had so much money. So he's just like, oh, I want to do that. And when you have that much money,
Starting point is 02:14:52 you just get all the equipment, and then you could also pay to get into these places, and then you become popular because as a DJ, you just press play. It's like Pat when he saw a guy do a backflip on a dirt bike. Yep, that's exactly what it was. I want to do that. I almost did it with DJs. I almost did it with DJs.
Starting point is 02:15:07 I almost did it with DJs. DJ shiny helmet thing. DJ shiny helmet thing. What was it? DJ shiny head thing. I wanted to do it. I still want to do it. I still want to do it.
Starting point is 02:15:18 Really good. DJ shiny head thing. I really want to do it bad. Fucking Waka Flocka. I don't know how much money he made at that house. That was incredible. Dude was just screaming up there there we'll press and play and then they took a minute video of him acting like a dj and then he was back just screaming and then he left and
Starting point is 02:15:34 then he had another gig he had another gig it was dj waka faka wasn't even playing his own music was made 50 grand no problem just bouncing around and then the video was him dj pressing play and then he bounced around like waka faka is a genius this guy is an absolute genius dj shiny who was the dj who was here last week did something at the motor speedway at like 8 p.m so it's like 5 p.m pacific in vegas and then flew to vegas and did their normal vegas show at night that's absurd dj shiny head Thing needs to happen. Needs to happen. DJ D-Soul, good for this guy.
Starting point is 02:16:08 Top of the two worlds. Not bad. We had a whole plan for DJ Shiny Head Thing. We're going to take photos at one club. Just put me in there. Do one photo. And it was like, yeah, I just got back from a Europe tour. Nobody would be able to follow that.
Starting point is 02:16:21 Nobody would know. Buy some Twitter followers. Put up some pictures. Just got done with a Europe tour coming to America. Who wants to to book me dumb promoters would be like oh yeah we got this new guy dj shiny head he's coming into town he's a big party and all he would have to do is just literally press play if the computer freezes i'm fucked completely fucked completely completely screwed but just press play and we would have documented the whole thing and we were going to make an entire documentary about how this whole dj thing is wild press play, and we would have documented the whole thing. We were going to make an entire documentary about how this whole DJ thing is wild.
Starting point is 02:16:47 It's a wild. I would have actual DJs make my playlist. We still should. We would give them credit, both in life and in the documentary, and then I would just be pressing play with a shiny helmet on. I think you should. Or be your goatee yell. I don't know yet.
Starting point is 02:17:01 It has to be something remarkable. I was thinking about having an auto tuner on the helmet so as I come out like I speak like not Darth Vader or Darth Vader or Bane but I definitely have a distinct voice
Starting point is 02:17:12 coming out of the DJ shiny helmet thing because then you can talk all these guys have the problem they can't talk exactly exactly
Starting point is 02:17:17 I've seen one of them guys that wears a helmet put it on to somebody else go to a photo shoot that's a good move I can't wait to send Nick and all these DJ shiny helmet things. They tried that at Chuck E. Cheese that didn't last long. That's awesome.
Starting point is 02:17:32 Red Sox even up series with the Astros in the American League Championship Series, heading back to Houston tied 1-1. Boston just wins, man. That's why whenever they say, tell the Boston fans to be classy after that whole thing, they're very arrogant fans, as they should be. There's a lot to celebrate.
Starting point is 02:17:49 The Patriots came out and banned that guy who threw the beer from Gillette forever. Very classy move. But for me, that's what makes Gillette Gillette. Correct. For me, I enjoy the mass holes being there. That's the home field advantage. Whenever they're motherfucking Adam Vinatieri who won them Super Bowls, that's what makes Foxborough that's what i enjoy so the middle fingers i the fact that anybody was upset
Starting point is 02:18:09 about the middle fingers like those people need to stop i don't think they watch football they just saw it on the internet and were upset about it you got people like literally like attacking other humans out there i mean it's it's a middle finger flying here and there it's really kids pick our battles here. Don't tell the kids what it means, and they'll never worry about it. You know, if the kid doesn't know that that middle finger means fuck you, he could possibly mean Tyreek Hill's number one. You teach your kids better, you know, and then we'll handle that.
Starting point is 02:18:35 The beer tossing thing, very aggressive, but I don't think you'll hear Tyreek Hill bitch about it. You're number one. Oh, yeah. When Little Atlas comes out, yeah, because that means number one. Go ahead and comes out, that means number one. Go ahead and give it to your teacher. Apparently, I guess right before the show started,
Starting point is 02:18:52 someone said that the NFL and NFLPA is trying to sue that fan. Tyreek Hill and the other dude are going after him. Really? Tyreek Hill is not happy about it. Tyreek Hill and Tyreek Hill want to prosecute. See, that's the difference.
Starting point is 02:19:07 If I'm Tyreek Hill, I want that story. Bro, that shirt. Eventually somebody's going to interview me on some show, and I want that story. Bro, it's him Steve Austin-ing. Yeah. Steve Austin did that every night of his life, every Monday night of his life.
Starting point is 02:19:19 But it sucks you have somebody spit on you. That could be potential backwash, that whole thing. I can understand why you're mad. But man, that's just an awesome moment I think for Tyreek Hill that's an awesome moment granted I didn't get beer tossed in my face after scoring a touchdown you have before I have not in scoring touchdowns usually
Starting point is 02:19:36 winning dance-offs but I for me that's a towel right just keep it moving I don't know I don't know how I feel about it Tyreek Hill and lost a day in fenway park hashtag end game hashtag end game um we already gave like three of them yeah we did figure it out they're just in there by the way today this afternoon we are doing the raffle uh drawing
Starting point is 02:20:07 for the winners we had 30 000 entries we will knock it down to 20 and then of those 20 we will then pick um balls i believe it will be ping pong balls to draft basically the people into the groat uh out of those 20 balls we'll pick somebody. That person will then go into the slot 11 hole. Then 10 hole, 9 hole, 8 hole, 7 all the way up to 1. 1 gets their choice of any other raffle items. Then 2 gets what's left. 3
Starting point is 02:20:36 and so on and so on. Should be a very electric afternoon. Very excited for the groat winners. Very excited for everybody that purchased the documentary and got entered into the groat. We appreciate you immensely.
