Hey, how about Gorm just chewing out the private plane place? Someone's gonna do it. I can't walk in there. There's a small little group of people that work in there. I mean, they're gonna know that. I mean, they didn't have the Wi-Fi though. There's a small little group of people that work in there. I mean, they're going to know. I mean, they didn't have the Wi-Fi, though. It's not Gorm's fault.

It's a very important time to have that Wi-Fi. And Zito can say this. I take a brunt when there's no Wi-Fi. So I'm getting beat up like a dummy here. What was the run? What was the line? If it ain't running, we ain't flying. It's a great line. By the the way let's say you travel back you hop in one of them time machines okay you hop in one of them times yeah i don't know if it's one that you walk into i don't

know if it's a car i don't know what type of time machine it is but you get it maybe it's a portal like old cuzzy that could throw the saw blade thing in Avengers. Stewie Griffin? Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. That's the kind I would want. I'd want to be able to just step in there. Stewie's time machine is the same. Well, Stewie, you thought. Strange. Yeah, that's how it got here.

I had another rough weekend. Atta boy. Yeah, I like that. Like, throw the buzz saw. It's like a portal. That's the perfect way to go back. Just step through the hole. You throw like a cowboy throws a lasso. And then you can maybe even pull it towards you. You jump through the portal. You go back to 2000.

Let's go back to 2004. Good year. Good year. Great year. 2004, 2005. One of them. Good year Great year 2004, 2005

One of them You hop into a blue Jeep Wrangler That's in Plumborough, Pennsylvania Yeah, yeah At about 7.05 a.m. 7.15 a.m. Is that about right? Yep, right on there

7.11 7.11 That was, yeah, 7.11 50 Cent It's your birthday, is play. Go Shawnee. Of course. There is a 12-speaker box in the back.

They don't work, though. So no subwoofer? It doesn't work. It doesn't work. It's just a box with two 12s in it. It's for aesthetics. That does not work. It is actually the back seat.

That is the back seat. The box with the two 12s that are definitely indented. There isn't glass at the top. It's just a speaker. Sitting on speakers almost. Yeah. And for some reason, your turn signals won't work either because your buddy to help you wire it

didn't know what the fuck he was doing. No, I didn't have a buddy that knew how to wire anything. So you just put those speakers in there for no reason? No, it came. They came with the Jeep. Oh, came. They came with the Jeep. Oh, okay. They came with the Jeep. All right.

I'm driving. Okay. This is in Plumboro, Pennsylvania. There's a Diggs in the car. Okay. There's a Diggs in the car. With a Z or an S? Well, it depends on what social media platform.

Okay. Checking off all the boxes here. Yeah, yeah. And then there's probably a guy named Hambone in there, in the car. Strong name. Okay, blonde guy. Hambone. He smokes two packs of cigarettes a day now.

Yeah. Okay. Sounds like a good guy. And you just sit right on the left speaker box in the back while the three of us are in the car, okay, driving. And you say, hey, 2018, the guy driving here is going to be calling an NFL football game at Lambeau. And then the next day is going to have to worry about a PR crisis with a private plane company.

The other guy in here, the dummy Italian guy, is going to be working in there. And he's going to have over 50,000 followers, basically. And they're going to listen to his sports takes. And you're going to look at him and go, ain't nobody ever going to listen to that fucking guy. I had that moment yesterday, man. When I was on the plane with no Wi-Fi.

Because I couldn't do anything. I couldn't do anything. So I couldn't do anything out there. It's just me and these two pilots. Good people, man. These guys were good guys. Goodie bags? Oh, dude.

They gave me this. Hey, listen. JetLinks had no goddamn Wi-Fi on the plane, which is a technology issue. Sure. I work in a tech company, basically, and I don't understand a lot of stuff. I mean, that got me in some shit. Well, not really me, but no, not really at all, but you get it. I understand the technology.

If technology is the greatest thing, it's the greatest thing, but if it wants to be, it could be the worst thing, too, if you're relying. I understand that happens. So the Wi-Fi and also we're on an airplane. A flight attendant told me that one time. Did the pilots at least watch the game so they could give you a couple feedback or something? So they did have the game on. They flew over, though, and they got there like second, third quarter or something like that.

So there's a lot of plane checks you got to do. They heard the end of the game, though. Okay. So they heard the end of the game when it was 31 zip, which we will get to in the thing. But they were very nice, took my bag. The people that did the flyover, the badass Air Force, they were in there. It was three dudes and a lady.

They had their full green jump. It was awesome. They were sitting in there. And as soon as I get there, they give me a good game, man. And I was like, oh, cool. He's like, did you see the flyover? And I was like, oh, you guys are the flyover. He's like, yeah.

I was like, yeah, that was awesome. And I started asking them. I was like, oh, you guys are the flyover? He was like, yeah. I was like, yeah, that was awesome. And I started asking them. I was like, well, how does that work, the timing? Because I've been a part of games where the lady's basically like, oh, and boom. Like it's nowhere near right. Like the time is nowhere near right. So I asked him.

He's like, oh, they normally give us the time. They do a fly around in a circle, and then they hit that thing running. It was good. I talked to them. The Jet Lynx people, very very nice people they go in there and i walk on the plane and i look and they just have this like box and it was like a uh it felt like it was just a like a gift box to me reese's like a 16 pack wow 16 pack of reese's was sitting there i mean how many did you dent on the flight i took down two two of the packs, but I took the rest with me. Yeah, I stole those directly out of that place.

They were a gift. Then there was two family-size bags of M&M, peanut M&M's. Oh, no. Family-size. Not the small, basic, not the even tiny little Halloween kid size. Not the convenience store peanut M&M size. Costco. Not the even tiny little Halloween kid size. Not the convenience store peanut M&M size. Costco. Not the sharing size.

The family size. Two of them down there. Then there was an option for a keto thing over here. Oh, yeah. There was an option. There was like a portable protein pack, I think is what it's called, P3. Yep, yep. It has like a keto.

It's only four. It only has four grams of carbs in the entire package. It's called. P3. Yep, yep. It has like a keto. It's only four. It only has four grams of carbs in the entire package. It has turkey. Some nuts. Turkey jerky in there. Turkey jerky. They have sunflower seeds, and they had some other nuts.

A lot of them, though. Yeah. A lot of them. So that was definitely an option. Yeah. There's no way you're going over to that side, whatever what's happening over here. What am I, a forager? I'm not going to put that.

I'm trying to live in the forest. You got the biggest bag of peanut M&Ms you've ever seen. I ain't no gatherer. I am a fucking hunter. Give me the M&Ms. So I get in there. I obviously house the family size M&Ms.

Because once you pop, you can't stop. You can't stop. What was that? What was that? Last week, I walked over towards where the peanut M&Ms were. It was in a jar. And I opened up, and Connor goes, oh, no.

Oh, no. It was early. It was like 11 o'clock. I was like, you want to set your day on this? That's what you want to do? Soju, you look like a complete asshole. This is my favorite purchase of my entire life. I don't think I've ever worn something.

You look good. You look good. So we'll talk about that definitely at some point. But then I sit down. We do the takeoff thing. Pretty good. They let me know that at higher, where they just came from, was quite a ride.

So we're going to stay low. We're going to be a little lower. And I go, at that moment, I go, Wi-Fi low? He said, no, no, we'll just be a little bit lower than where we were. Wi-Fi low. I'm like, perfect. So we sit down.

We take off. I do one last scroll on the timeline and the mentions right before we take off because the Wi-Fi doesn't go until you get to 10,000 feet. Right. Okay? On any plane, get to 10,000 feet. Right. Okay? On any plane, by the way, not just private planes. I don't know why.

Yeah, I was about to ask. Does anybody know why that is? Why is that? Closer to the satellites? It's the same reason. What? I don't know. That's why the Wi-Fi is so much better on planes.

Took a stab at it. The old college try. Why is it only a 10? It screws with the knobs and the whistles. Correct. It's got to be something about the speed. I don't buy that. That's what they'll tell you.

If that motherfucking plane is going to go down because I open up Twitter, I would like to get off that fucking plane. Same reason why you have to be on airplane mode. Yeah. See, I think airplane mode was at the beginning when everybody was. It was like 2000, the year 2000, when they thought the computers were going to shut down. I think that's how everybody thought. They said you couldn't have iPods

at one point. You remember that? Turn off your iPod. I think there was a lot of... I think they want you paying attention to what they're trying to preach about safety instructions. No.

I'm not saying I agree with it. I'm just saying that's their spin. They're still telling people how to fasten that seatbelt. If they don't know how to figure out that seatbelt, let them die. I agree.

Let them fucking die. I, for one, think car seatbelt should be that, by the way. The same way the airplane is, I want my car seatbelt to be the die. I agree. Let them fucking die. I, for one, think car seatbelt should be that, by the way. The same way the airplane is, I want my car seatbelt to be the same thing. That's a funny thought, though. If you crash in a plane, you're coming at a way faster speed, right? Just a little bit. No, I think they pretty

much know you're going to be dead. The seatbelt does nothing on a plane. The seat back up is my problem. Let me get a little slouch. Let me get a little slouch. Yeah. Let me get like a little slouch. Not on takeoff. I'm telling you, there's some of those,

like you get on like a commercial, obviously guys. Yeah. Commercial planes. The regular ones, right? Yeah. And you have some of them flight attendants who like break out a ruler.

If your seat's a little further back than the one next to you, they're like up, up. I'm like, up, up. I don't think, oh,

I must've hit it when I was sitting down. Yeah, that's all. You always got to act like you didn't. But I get on that plane, they're like, up, up. I'm like, up, up. I don't think they... Oh, I must have hit it when I was sitting down. Yeah, that's all I know. You always gotta act like you didn't. But I get on that plane. We take off. Right a little bit lower. Beautiful flight. Incredible flight. The two pilots were very nice men. No Wi-Fi, right? No Wi-Fi. So my last swipe

there, Gorman wouldn't let them know, by the way. We are not happy about that. Gorms? No, they're fine with me. They just fucking hate you. So I sit down. This might be why I even mentioned it in a group conversation earlier to you, is because it was the first time where I had nobody to talk to.

It was literally just me, and there was no way I was falling asleep. I was wide awake. Those two pilots up there were doing their thing. Phone's completely off. I don't play video games. And there was nothing except for me and my peanut M&Ms. It's lonely at the top, bro. Hey, man.

Lonely at the top. I had nothing. What did you do? That was the first time I started really reflecting on anything. All those rock pictures that he posts on those planes and Kevin Hart looking out the window. And Gary Vee looking out the window. I had one of those moments.

I was looking out the window. I was like, man, this is fucking insane. And then while I was looking out the window talking, I was like, this is how Gary Vee gets his money. I should set up a thing. I should somehow set up a camera on this for whenever oh i get it now it all makes sense and i just started like reflecting on everything it was an hour-long flight and it was insane and i'm just so grateful for like you guys obviously very

very thankful for you guys every day i don't know how i'd be able to deal with me on a daily basis you guys do i I appreciate that. I was so grateful to the Fox people for letting me do that, man. Because whenever I was thinking about retirement, I had a pseudo agent that I think Gorms, you gave me the name to actually, not just you. There was like four people gave me names. Three of the people gave me the same name. You're one of them. So when I didn't have an agent the last year, I was thinking about retiring, I didn't have an agent. The last year, I was thinking about retiring,

going into the season, basically. Going into the season, I'd met Todd. I chatted with him, and I'd done stand-up at this point. I did a lot of stand-up. I was starting to really enjoy it. I was starting to fall in love with everything off the field. Didn't want to go to training camp. It was the first year I didn't want to go to training camp. I was like, I don't want to go.

I want to continue doing everything else that I'm doing. I didn't enjoy the GM, obviously, at the time, but I just didn't want to go. In the NFL, when you're a punter, there's only 32 jobs. So there's only 32 jobs. So you've got to really commit to that. It deserves the respect of your full commitment, full attention. I think that's a big fucking deal and i didn't want to go i was like i don't even want to fucking go i don't even want to go to training camp i don't anything about it

uh i was living with sam at the time i was enjoying i still am but i was enjoying like just everything off the field more than that so i started talking to todd a little bit and i i had a couple different angles i was like if i retire i think at that point i had maybe 700 000 followers or something like that 600 700 000 followers and i i was like i don't have an agent but i need a tv agent who will let me know if any of these networks would just take a shot at me maybe that'll be my next job right everybody goes football into media if they have any personality at all if you can speak into a microphone at all one of these networks especially uspn a lot of basic bad talking motherfuckers yep you paid a

lot of money by these networks to talk and there's some very talented people talking into microphones on all platforms but there's a lot of very terrible humans talking in a microphone making a lot of money so in my head i was like okay so that's I'll do. I'm not in love with this anymore. Being in media, talking about football, and doing things off the field is what I'm enjoying anyways. It'll be a perfect tie-in. This will be a perfect tie-in. So this guy, I get his name, this agent, TV agent,

he's worked a big deal with ESPN. So I sent him a text. I'm like, hey, I've gotten your name from, and I listed off the names that gave me his name. I was like, is there any way, if I was to retire after this year, go to the Pro Bowl and retire after this year, would any of the networks want anything to do with me, you think? And I sent him some of my information and stuff like that.

I sent him my stand-up, 90 minutes of stand-up, first time on the stage, no paper, no big deal, sent that to him, did the whole thing. He came back to me the next morning and was like, nobody would be interested. A lot of quick answers. Yikes. answers he said quick answers is exact words so i was like oh okay i i told him i expected it though i i kind of expected that because none of the networks would let me on tv when i was in the game anyway so i would be i'd be crushing it on social media but none none of the networks, except for NFL Network, by the way,

who let me on a show that they canceled and never called me back. But no networks said they would give me a shot. So me and Todd started talking, and we were going to build our own app. I was going to build my own app. I was like, you know what? I want to love what I'm doing again.

I loved when I was in the NFL for six, seven years. I want to just love what I'm doing. I want to be excited to go to work. I want to do this thing. And we start building the app. And it becomes a point where we were just going to make the app, make content on there, and just wake up every day creating things. Right.

Right? We're going to do stand-up. We're going to make podcasts. We're going to do this. Dave obviously caught wind, gave me a shot, said, hey, we just want to help you pay for it basically we want to do business for you we want to teach you the internet dave portnoy was really the only media member and i was writing this last night on my phone he was the only media member that had any vision of what i could be or what we could be oh yeah he saw right away wanted to invest the whole thing right knew

that i wouldn't fit in in new york basically It was very excited for me to run my own operation out here. They just wanted to handle the business. And I thought about that last night, and I was like, man, Dave Portnoy, that motherfucker, really the only guy that gave me a shot. Then there's Michael Cole with the WWE Network who lets me do it, and I'm so thankful for them. And then for the last three months, I've just been shaking hands with all these people who make all these decisions, and they've all been very nice. Everybody's been very nice to me, but nobody's really given me a shot and then fox pulled the

trigger and let me do a game at lambeau i am so grateful for that i am so so so and then the detroit lions who i'm friends with their special teams guy oh yeah devin fitzsimmons he was he's not their head guy they fired a special teams coach he's not their head guy they didn't bring it they just made the assistant in charge but they didn't name him the head guy. They fired the special teams coach. He's not their head guy. They just made the assistant in charge, but they didn't name him the head guy or whatever. Friend of mine. Prater is a friend of mine. Sam Martin is a friend of mine.

They deliver a gift. Dude, I said if I could have bet on that, that was almost the most universal guarantee of all time that something like that was going to happen. They delivered a gift to me yes that was a mother that was as soon as i see it happening you hear me go oh thank you it's exactly how i am it's exactly how i am and i i say this not as like a a i'm not embellishing at all that is exactly how i am when i'm sitting on these couches over here watching six tvs for the last year and a half on sundays that's exactly what

i'm like it was genuine just waiting for a yeah you're called like two seconds that was perfect because i was listening to you guys and i'm looking at my phone because i'm thinking okay here we go it's okay and then i heard the oh and I'm up on the TV like what what's gonna happen and that beautiful fucking moment happened it was in in my head while I'm doing it by the way so there's some rules that I've been learning over the last couple days like play by play makes the call to play then you chime in afterwards right and it's obviously when you're sitting on a couch very high doing it with your cell phone there's no rules you can just do whatever you want so as soon as i see the oh and then you hear me go touchdown let's go they had to turn my microphone they like turn my microphone down so the guy could call it

and then i i heard like nobody talking and i was like all right here we go and in my in the back of my head i was like this is exactly like motherfucking for the brand video so while i'm doing it just like i do because i only my my for the brand videos are only one take every single time if it takes me more than one take i don't do it and i enjoy the pressure that i kind of put on myself to finish it right so it's like in the back of my head while i'm doing it in lambo is the same conversation i'm having with myself in it, right? So it's like in the back of my head while I'm doing it in Lambo is the same conversation I'm having with myself in these TVs over here. It's like, yo, this is going to be a good one.

You only get one shot at this. Do not fuck this up. And I went rolling and I got so close, so close until I didn't know the exact score. To make this a 13, God. And in i'm like blew it you fucking blew it and then every time i listen because obviously it's done pretty well that video i listened to it i listened to it a couple times and you hear i was like yep you can fucking hear me lose it the whole conversation's happening in my head like god you fucking blew it right there at 13 it was uh it was so i thought you saved it it was a magical moment you tied a boat on with the magical at the

end yeah before they went to break it was uh i appreciate that that means a lot but i'm so thankful for fox let me do that and i would i would not guarantee that i will be in a booth by the way i would not guarantee it after all i, but I would hope. Yeah, I bet on it. But were you glad that your first one was at Lambeau? In the fucking cold, in the open booth. December. You just had such a nostalgic feel of seeing you guys in your fucking winter coats. I didn't know.

Great coat, by the way. Yeah. That's a good looking coat. Four or five emails happened for that jacket because I didn't have a winter dress jacket. I only have big ridiculous jackets so going into the i found out on christmas i was calling that game so going into that game i didn't know if i had to go buy i was like so i was sending emails like i don't know how to ask this question do i have to go buy a jacket right now they're like oh we might be able to get you winter jackets from la or whatever and i was like okay and then like a day happened then another day happened it was like friday or it was like uh thursday i was leaving

on friday delhi no when are you left friday friday yeah i was leaving on friday so it's thursday then at like three o'clock i sent an email like hey uh any chance these jackets are coming in or in no answer so me and sam go and buy a jacket so i got like this dope b. So I got like this dope black jacket. And right after, I couldn't have been less than four minutes after I bought that. Couldn't have been no less than four minutes after I bought that thing. Get an email. Winter jacket's from LA coming. I'm like, okay, good.

Okay, good. So I wore that jacket around Lambeau. I look like a classy motherfucker. I had them slippers. Tell you what. I had them slippers. I bought the scarf that same night. With the great scarf.

Yeah. Yeah, that played well with the Fox coat too. The peacoat scarf look is almost undefeated. All time. So let's remember that I can't tie a tie. Yeah. So Sam Roberts has to tie my tie for the WWE Network. I didn't want to have that question with somebody at Fox.

Like, hey, can somebody tie my tie? Because I feel like that would not give me a good one up with fox so i was like scarf we'll just bury it we'll just bury it with the scarf so that was the idea with the scarf was i won't have a tie on we'll just bury it with the scarf look perfect walk into the booth though before the game and they have it completely closed yeah and there's a heater in there so we walk into the booth and it's like 60, 65 degrees. Still chilly, but it's still 60, 65 degrees. I'm like, oh no, I don't have a tie.

I'm going to have to wear this fucking... I'm going to have to take the jacket off and just have this button all the way up, black button up, basically. So then we go to the food. We come back and it's wide open. I was like... I knew it was going to be cold here. I knew back, and it's wide open. I was like, whoops.

I knew it was going to be cold here. I knew it was going to be cold here. Thank God. For that call on the Prater touchdown, you said that there was silence. I figured it being a Prater touchdown that those two would have just both looked at you immediately for you to call it. So I wasn't looking.

It was tough to look at them, right? And there was that spotter in the booth, too. He had some TV time, that guy. Oh, Ben Adler, Ben? Brett's his name. He was a good guy. He was a good guy was that spotter in the booth too he had some tv time that guy yeah brett's his name he was a good guy he was a good guy good spotter because i'm so far away i i can't really get the benefits of the spotter so but that spotter i guess has a very important now was he sitting in between you guys the whole time yeah he was that was his position the whole time because he's so for i guess this has been interesting to learn all the behind the scenes stuff by the way the amount of shit that goes into calling a game is insane, by the way.

The amount of knowledge and questions and this. It's very fascinating. It's just like when I got behind for the WWE. I got to see behind. It's very cool to see how the production. How the wheels turn. How the sausage is made. There it is.

Hey, what did you go with? How the wheels turn. Not bad. Not bad. Not bad, but sausage. Maine is the cleat. Yeah. Oh, I had some good sausage over there. This looked damn good.

At Mason Crosby's bar. Anyways, so the spotter, learning about all these little positions is pretty interesting. Because the press interview that we did with the player the pre-production interview that happened like i've never been asked one of those so i have no idea how those go i have no idea how those are supposed to go but we had to travel to lambeau on friday to meet and we met with aaron rogers we met with joe philbin we met with kyler fackrell and aaron rogers is the first one in there okay aaron rogers first one so we're sitting in their media auditorium.

It's like a team meeting room, okay? So it goes up. They got the cameras on top. But it's only five of us from Fox sitting in the room with a table. So now we got to figure out how to sit here because we can't just go five across with Aaron to our left. So we stacked, right? A couple in the front row, a couple in the second row,

and then Aaron would sit in the front. Joe would sit in the front. So that was an interesting little thing. So I ended up sitting right in the middle of the front row couple in the second row and then aaron would sit in the front joe would sit in the front so that was an interesting little thing okay so i ended up sitting right in the middle of the second row so aaron rogers walks opens the door it's just a little door on the side of like a auditorium basically like a theater he opens the door and just looks at me and starts laughing and then walks over he shakes everybody's hand i met i want him for a handshake he went over and went to somebody else and then he came to me at the end with like a dap up i'm like my man thank He walks over, he shakes everybody's hand. I want him for a handshake. He went over. I wanted somebody else.

And then he came to me at the end with like a dap up. I'm like, my man, thank you. We sit down and he and I just had a conversation for like five minutes before anything started. And then we got into like the real production meeting. It was so interesting listening to like just the way those conversations go. Okay, questions. Well, that's what, so like the analysis, like Robert Smith is asking like real,

like, hey, when this happens, what are you looking for? Then you're hearing things come out of Aaron and you're like, oh shit, I didn't even think about all that. Like I didn't even think about all that. And then I was asking questions just about like, you know, hey, a lot of drama happening right now, right?

I treated it just like an interview. I treated it just like an interview. I treated it exactly like an interview. And Aaron, man, he's good, dude. He is really good. His goal this year, my first question was, okay, week 17, no coach,

no playoffs, why is this a huge game? Right? And he went into this run about how he wants to be respected in the locker room. All he cares about is the respect of his peers. If he's a leader, there's no way he can not play in a game that doesn't matter. How is he supposed to ever talk to his teammates after that? He didn't, by the way. Did he wink after he said all that?

He played. Yeah, very hard, too. Took that hit. It was over. At a certain point in time, you've got to be – you've got to sign your health, all right? What about CT in the future? Yeah, exactly.

You think the guy who said in the interview, by the way, he said that he would challenge McVay in a memory contest if he wanted to? And then I asked him, I said, well, is Jeopardy ever going to let you go against normal nerds instead of just celebrity nerds? And he said, I would like to. He said, I would like to do that aaron is a very cerebral hey no not cerebral i think he's just like smart i think he's a fucking genius i think he is a very very very smart guy because robert smith asked him a question about a guy and he called back like just like

mcveigh did like in uh i think it was like week two last year he did this thing and then the person checked it was like yeah it was 100% it was just like it was a very interesting thing listening to him speak about how he wanted to be respected in the locker room and then I followed up with like when you were hurt is that something you thought about like it's gonna be hard to be a leader if you're missing seasons because you're hurt and he was like absolutely and he dug into this story about how he was when he was away how he was questioning himself and all this stuff and he would hear yeah it was a very it was a very interesting very interesting thing and then the mccarthy conversations how mccarthy goes so now it's it's basically a lot of not i don't want to say inside

the building but outside the building everybody's eyes are okay if mccarthy's gone then aaron it's his thing and he talked about how he he feels that he wants to be that and all this stuff and how he wants this accountability factor kind of brought back in and all this it was it was a very very professional conversation and it was I wish we could like I wanted to tell Fox people almost we need to record this like yo yeah I'm trying to do digital shit like this is the digital shit that you guys are trying to do. They should. It made no sense to me. Do they say stuff that they're not supposed to say?

They say stuff about the game plan. Oh, okay. So there's stuff about the game plan that they give a heads up to, basically. Gotcha. Like, hey, this could potentially happen. This could potentially happen. And I was told, like, on numerous occasions, like, anything anything they say in here you are not allowed to tweet hey there's a fake coming tomorrow

exactly did you bring up Danico at all? no I didn't it was a much more it was a more football time and place yeah it was a more football related

I think he mentioned something there you go time and place. Yeah, it was more football. Related. I think he mentioned something. There you go. Seems like that's a really blossoming, like a good, the way he mentioned it in the answer that he gave made me go, oh, they really. Oh, there's something there. Yeah, in my head, it wasn't my question.

So I was just kind of like, I was listening, but I was like, oh, what can we go with next? You know, like you're always trying to see how we can continue the conversation in a flowing manner as opposed to just like a multiple choice how we do that right so i'm like listening to every word he's saying and then he said something about it in my head i was like oh he was talking probably for another minute but i was just thinking like good for aaron he's got a real good for Aaron here.

It was cool. And then Joe Philbin comes in. He laughs. As soon as he opens the door, he laughs on his way in. And we have a full conversation with him about how he enjoys, like those are his people, he says basically. Like Green Bay is my people. I went to Miami.

It was a lot different. Green Bay is my people. I really like this place. I don't think he's expecting to be the head coach at all, but he is definitely saying like, yeah, I would be honored to be the head coach at all, but he is definitely saying, yeah, I would be honored to be a head coach here. Basically all the things you would think about. And I asked him about how meeting him versus my perception of him

was one of the biggest drastic changes I've ever had in my entire life. Normally my first impression of a human will last for a long time. Normally a pretty good reader on things. But with Joe Philbin, whenever he got signed to the Colts, I was with Vontae, obviously. Vontae

is in the training room. And he signs with the Colts and everybody just turns to Vontae and goes, Vontae! I didn't really know because I hadn't watched Hard Knocks but everybody else, right? And they go like, hey, Philbin's coming. Man, he's a good guy.

He's a good guy. He's a good guy. Did you see his commercial, why he quit the game, why he walked? Yeah, yeah. Fantasy one? I thought it was a wild PR move. It was a wild PR move, but he probably got paid well, so good for him. So then I went back and watched the Hard Knocks after that whole situation.

People were telling me, like, the trainers who are very hilarious humans were like, oh, you've got to see it. He gets straight and Vontae goes, I got to call my grandma. You've got to. You have to see it. So I went back and, like, binge watched it, basically. And I thought Joe Fillion was just, like, the most dull, terrible. I'm like, ah, this fucking guy's coming in here?

And then the London massage happens where he's in the room. And then after that, it was like every day we had some sort of conversation. And my thought of him completely 180. It was complete. Because he's just a dry sense of humor human. Like a very dry human. So the hard knocks doesn't do him well, right? So hard knocks will not do Joe Philbin's comedy justice.

Because you need him to grow on you. Yes, exactly. You need to know what's coming. You need to know what he's saying and how you should take it. You know what I mean? He's a shit talker, but it's very subtle and very polite,

but he is absolutely talking shit on you. Nice guy. Yeah, I think he's from Winchester? No, he went to Worcester Academy. Worcester, Worcester. Worcester. Worcester. But yeah, so I asked him that question and he laughed.

And he laughed. He said, I don't know if that was a compliment. It was the perfect line for him to say back. And he was like, he's found himself being more himself in this role. Right? At the Green Bay. He's found himself being more himself. He's keeping it.

And then I asked Kyler Fackrell about him being a head coach. He's talking about how team meetings are light. kind of gets him and it's been a cool thing and aaron obviously talked very highly about him publicly and stuff like that so i don't think he's expecting it but those conversations are very interesting to be in and i i was the whole time we were in i was thinking the fox like do you know how many views you know how many views this would get this conversation right here yeah it's a podcast basically yeah it's a podcast with it would crush yeah now granted they'll probably the nfl would

not allow it somehow somebody would not i don't know how many things red tape would have to get cut they would probably have to have final approval on the editing of it and all that stuff which is cool by the way even if they do want that it's cool but then we got it with detroit now too right the next day right so we go with detroit and i don't really know i don't know matt patricia i don't know i know of matthew stafford we have common friends but i don't know matthew stafford and darius slay i don't know him so i didn't know how it was going to go right and matt patricia opens the door he gives like a smile while looking at me and then puts his head down. He was like kind of, uh, he was, uh, he was an interesting thing. And then he

shakes my hand and I'm like, uh, coach Patricia, honor to meet you. And he said, no, no honor to meet you. And I was like, all right, here we go. This is going to be a good conversation, but I couldn't, I had my fucking big jacket on. Okay. I had my big jacket on and I couldn't take it off. And we're in this conference room in a hotel because I had gone to Titletown earlier, and the only hoodie I had was this one. So I had a sleeveless hoodie on underneath the jacket, and I got back from Titletown as our car was leaving

to go to Appleton, Wisconsin, which is where they were staying, which is a 20-minute drive. So I didn't get a chance to run back into my hotel room to change my shirt. So I had a sleeveless hoodie on and my peacoat on. And Matt Patricia earlier in the year had yelled at reporters for slouching. So there was like, there's no way I can walk into this

with a sleeveless hoodie on. So I kept my peacoat jacket on the entire time. So I'm just sitting in this conference room in the bottom of the Detroit Lions hotel, sleeveless hoodie on, peacoat on, jeans, and I'm obviously perspiring, right? I'm obviously sweating. Just going through this entire conversation in my head, I'm just thinking, Matt Patricia, I wonder what he is thinking.

Because Robert Smith asked a question, like a technical football question, and I just got sweat just dripping down my face. I feel like you have a wiretap on yeah i'm like what is patricia thinking i wonder he was a good conversation too man that's what i was gonna ask how was he did he have the pencil behind his ear for the interview too i said hey what's up with the goddamn pencil you know and that was my actual question we got to the point where i could ask that question to him in the conversation by the way he went the conversation went well and he was like yeah i don't know it's just it's just my thing that's about being late to meetings yeah he answered that earlier in the week like five times so he he and the detroit media i guess have a very interesting

relationship they've met over 115 times this year yeah and that number was told to us by the pr person i was like because they by the way this is the most research i've ever done for anything in my life i was reading through every article that came out about the lions or packers the week they send it to us in a sheet they send it to us in an email and i was reading all so any email i get everybody thinks i don't check my emails because i don't respond to them i read every motherfucking email i want to know exactly what's going on everywhere and they kind of set me up because these emails were like 14 articles together so i read one and then the next one's like could this be it for matthew sever i'm like well i have to fucking read this then so then every article though so i read like all these

articles in all week he was answering questions about this all week and all he kept mentioning was uh outside the locker room, inside the locker room, which very much I understand that, right? I had a lot of problems with GM Grigson, but I never said anything until after the season. I would have never said it. You know what I mean? I almost did.

Honestly, I almost did. But during the season, everything outside the locker room is exactly what it is. It's noise. And that's basically the sentiments he echoed when somebody else asked a question about it. It was somebody else asked a question to him about it, got brought up, and then his answer basically was really solid

about how I'm trying to get a group of guys in here that focus on the little things, you know, fundamentals. I was like, what do you want your team to be known as? Matt Patricia's Detroit Lions, what do you want them known as? He's like, the guys that get the fundamentals right. We're the guys that do things right. Our concepts are right. We're doing everything. You could tell he's like the guys that get the fundamentals right we're the guys that do things right our concepts are right we're doing everything you could tell he's very much the do your job thought right very much to do your job and by the way whenever

robert smith said something during the game which was very accurate and i never thought of it he said when you have vets in that situation and you're trying to work fundamentals he mentioned like some vets aren't going to enjoy that. Like, hey, let's work on play design instead of fundamentals. This is his year or whatever. And you can't be, by the way, you can't fault the vet who's been in the league for a long time. There's a reason they've been in the league for a long time, and they might just not enjoy it.

So whenever the he's lost his locker room thing comes out. Like week one. Yeah, you can tell, you can see why. It's because he's very much changing the culture up there. I love it. And I think I'm interested to see how it goes because the Belichick disciples don't do great. But after talking to Patricia, I think he has a real personality.

I think he has an actual personality. And nothing has worked in the past. I don't know why people don't buy into it yet. You got to give it some time, you know? Well, you got to have success, man. Stafford's gone, bro. No. That's a $30 million thing. I'm just saying package deal. He's not a Patricia you can't that's a 30 million dollar thing i'm just saying

package deal he's not a patricia guy he's not a bobby quinn guy i can see him dealing with this quarterback hungry leave i can understand that early take ask patricia about it i asked i asked stafford about it right right i asked stafford about it and that was when i got the word woodward by the way great call i had no idea what yeah right down Woodward well I said right down Broadway so everybody else knew what the fuck it meant yeah and then I was like right down Woodward right because whenever Matthew Stafford I asked him about

because he gave a couple quotes during the week in his articles that I read about how he wants to be a guy who's known to stay on one team he loves the city of Detroit all that stuff so I asked him I was like you mentioned wanting to be on one team you love to see why do you love the city of detroit he went on a little run about how much he's seen the growth from 2009 till now how he's seen the city transform and all this stuff he said and i very much want to be a part of a parade down woodward and i was like what what

the hell is a woodward he was like it's like our main street when When you said that, I was like, okay, Pat. I'm okay. So I was like, so is Woodward a good time? And he gives me a wink. He's like, it's a nice place. And I laughed so hard in the meeting. I was like, oh, Woodward's going in tomorrow for sure. And I wrote down. And then the Tom McCooliff, that open line, that's Patricia's friend since he was a kid.

So I said, when did this coaching dream start? And he was like, when I was a kid. I was like, yeah, I need an age, though. And he was like, oh i said when did this coaching dream started he was like when i was a kid i was like yeah i need an age though and he was like oh i don't 10 10 playing electric football with tom mccullough i was like oh that's going in tomorrow for sure i was like i'm gonna say that he was like okay i was like all right perfect because it hasn't been a dream for him this year there's been a lot of drama man a lot of drama up there. But it feels as if all his answers are very much like, oh, okay, he's got good shit coming, you know? And you mentioned the whole Belichick-Patricia thing. They feuded for a while.

So it would make sense that the one coach that, you know, Belichick and him kind of butted heads, when he leaves, it would make sense he's the guy to kind of take that coaching tree up a notch, if you will. Him and Bill still talk. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Him and Bill still talk. Bill's a good guy.

I asked him on the way. I don't know if I'm supposed to say. Yeah, I don't think that matters. Kind of. I asked him on his way out. I was like, will you still talk to Bill? He was like, yeah, yeah, me and Bill talk all the time. And I was like, okay.

And that was like a throwaway comment to him, I think. But to me, that was like, in my head belichick as soon as you leave new england might as he lives in like the fucking uh truman show yeah like i think i think in my head belichick lives in truman patricia died when he walked out of belichick yeah it's exactly what i think so it's cool to hear that from him mostly because of how like that made me think about Bill Belichick. So it was like a cool thing. Well, it humanized him a little bit.

Yeah, it really did. Which you don't see. This whole year has, huh? This whole year really has. I mean, he said Merry Christmas the other day, so that's not a Belichick staple. Everything's different. I've been saying this.

Since August. Since that goddamn hat. I've been saying this. Since that fucking Minnesota Timberwolves game. What kind of presence did Stafford have in the room? Like compared to a legend like Aaron Rodgers when he comes in. Do you feel the same? Like, oh, this guy.

I don't know. So that was kind of, I was just on a Detroit show. Oh, yeah. For an hour and a half. Christ. Mighty. I did not know it was going to be a full podcast conversation. It was 40-some minutes. They were very nice, yeah. For an hour and a half. Christ. Mighty. I did not know it was going to be a full podcast conversation. It was 40-some minutes.

They were very nice, though. They were very nice. I honestly thought it was a live show hit. I didn't know, but they were very nice people. But they asked me a question about the similar type of thing. Because they said, I guess people call him the lawyer of the locker room instead of the leader of the locker room, where he just wants to be one of the guys.

He doesn't want to be a leader. He just wants the... They asked that question of me, and I had no idea that's how Detroit felt about him until that question was asked. That would be the impression I would have. Is he's not like the guy. Like where Peyton or Aaron Rodgers walks in.

People are like, oh, hey, just quit horsing around. Quit grab assing. You know what I mean? This is serious. I wouldn't see that with Stafford. Well, I think Aaron, too, has a good relationship with his teammates, too. He does, yeah. I mean, he's like a jokester and a prankster, too,

but I think everyone knows when it's time to get down to business, he's ready to go. If he gives you a look, you're like, oh. They both had that cool demeanor to them, right? Matthew Stafford has had a rough year, though. For sure. He's had a rough year. He's dinged up, too.

Always. Offenses move in pieces, too. Carry on didn't start in the beginning. Golden Tate's gone. Aaron's very injured. Yeah, big time. By the way, I'm not talking about just from the game. I'm talking about you get these reports.

Like, I got a chance to look at these reports. That first game. Oh, shit. Story. If they would have recorded the conversation about week one, Aaron Rodgers, between he and I, that thing has more views than the call of the Prater touchdown, for sure. He called it. Aaron Rodgers called the comeback, the miraculous comeback in week one at halftime.

He knew what was going to happen. They think he has a torn ACL in the field because they can't find the bottom of his ACL. So they do that test where they grab your thigh and your shin and they try to find basically if your ACL is still attached or ripped. They do like a little test. They couldn't find it on the field because his knee had been so swollen. They couldn't find it. So they take him off the field. Aaron Rodgers basically

thinks he has a torn ACL because of that test. They can't find it. Trainers think that. If you remember, TV announcers thought that. All of Green Bay thought that. Everybody thought that. If you remember, TV announcers thought that. All of Green Bay thought that. Everybody thought that. He goes into the locker room. They do some x-rays. It's not a torn ACL. It's something else, but it's swollen. It's huge. He can barely walk. So he goes on. There's a backfield, I guess. He's still suited up, and he starts taking some drops and stuff. And the trainer's like, what are you doing? And he's like, Aaron, I guess, ask the trainer,

what's the score? And the trainer goes, 17-0, you are not going back in this game. And I guess he gave like a no-no. I think we can do something magical. And comes back out and does exactly what he says he was going to do. I would have loved to have been in the room after the game when the trainer walks in. Because now they've got to really deal with reality. This is like, okay, we've got reality now.

And now after that win, after the post-game interview happens, after you walk back into the locker room celebration, after you shower, after you change, and when you're in that training room, and it's just you and the trainer, and everything has subsided. I would love to hear that trainer just go, you fucking son of a bitch. You know what I mean? Like you fucking son of a bitch. You know what I mean? You son of a

bitch. When he said that, I stood up. I was like, are you serious? He was like, yeah, yeah. Those conversations happened with the trainer. I was like, I have to tell that story. And he was like, yeah, you do whatever you need, man.

I was like, okay. I was real excited to get it in there. Because you need, man. I was like, okay. Okay. I was real excited to get it in there. Because he called his shot. Yeah. That was one of the biggest moments of the NFL season. It was. Opening week there.

Aaron Rodgers is out of the, basically out. Game's over. He's out. Season's over. Season's over. Kalil Mack is all the way back with Chicago. He just made $90 million guaranteed. Oakland Raiders are tanking.

Oh, shit. Chicago Bears, one of the most storied franchises in history who hasn't been good in a long time. Really good. And then that dude just fucking... I think we can make some money for my beer. I have my own, and you guys can back me up on this. Same thing. We're the trainers.

You're Aaron Rodgers. Follow me. A week ago, am i off by a day or two that he said i want to call an nfl game remember who you oh oh okay yeah yeah nine days ago i want to call an nfl game what do we do let me call fox fox okay why don't we come out here you'll do it you'll do a dummy game i completely forgot about it we'll do a dummy game okay i'll grab aq ship. He'll be my, you know, I'll do play-by-play. You don't see guys leave the field

go to play-by-play. I'll do color. I'll do play-by-play. We're like, okay, we'll get it done. You fly out to L.A., do a dummy game. You're in their studios. The bigwigs are behind you watching. Fast forward one week. Willie fucking Wonka is calling in at the first game. I mean, you talk about putting it out in the universe.

The universe listens, but that's a magical touch. That's why out in the universe. The universe listens. But that's a magical touch. That's why we're the trainers. He's Aaron Rodgers in this. That's just Pat B. That's what I mean. I mean, you've seen this forever. The fake happening.

It was so. Oh, yeah. Like I said, if I could have bet on that fucking. I got a question about that. Did you see the guy going out wide? Yeah. Yeah. So you kind of saw it coming. So our job.

We ran the. If I could get colts practice film me and jack doyle ran the hideout play against our field goal team four times a day probably four times a day we tried to just fuck so like tom mcbain would be like twos are in twos are in so um the one o line would leave the field and 2-0 line would come in just so they can work on the footsteps, right? And that play is normally run where somebody can sub out. So normally you just jog to the side. Whoever the wing is jogs to the sideline like they're subbing out,

and then they just stand on the sideline, and then you set up your person and hope that the end guy on the defensive side of the ball, that's their job, is to look outside in and make sure nobody's out there and then look in. And then their job is to make sure everybody's on side and then they rush the kick, right? That is 100% their job. That guy might have been new,

might have never been there before. Because with special teams, guys, there's a lot of people coming in. A lot of turnover. A lot of turnover. So you can take advantage of people like that. So literally, Vinatieri has thrown a touchdown like that before. I think there's been a few of those before these are just this is like the classic old school fake yeah in special teams it's like the og fake so jack doyle was the wing

on the ones and the twos so every time the twos were called in jack doyle would jog to the sideline to stand there and then our left end would just open up as as he was the wing and then the the we ran it we ran it probably like twice a season the the corner would go guy guy guy and everybody would stand up it's safe it was a whole thing we worked the special teams coordinator not coordinators the assistant coordinator devin fitzsimmons i think he was on our team when that was happening he's running the lion special teams now he knows everybody in special teams knows that OG trick and the fact that they were like yeah we should just give it because it is 100% a check with me with the person throwing right if that

corner goes out it's no big deal guy just comes back in lines up we kick the field goal it's not a it's just like oh let's see if they notice oh they didn't notice oh shit here we go so it's very much like uh let's just give it a shot and see how it goes. The fact that they did that is so, I love them. Hey, you comparing them to Peyton Manning

fucking killed me. And then the rest of the game, you were calling Prater the quarterback of the team. That killed me. When you were running the replay machine, did you realize you were

drawing a penis, basically? And then you stopped? Well, so. I noticed. So that came up the night before, the Telestrator. Because they mentioned we had a whole... We ran through the entire game, basically, the night before. And they were like, Telestrator will be to Pat's right,

but in reach of everybody. I was like, Telestrator, the drawing thing? They're like, yeah. I was like, we're going to have a Telestrator? They're like, yeah. I was like, okay. Okay. All right. So then at night, I laid down, and I was like okay okay all right so then at night i laid down and

i was like i can't draw a dick pat mcafee cannot draw a dick first nfl game i can't they finally let me on tv yeah they finally let me on tv like night before i had an entire finkel einhorn thing that was about to come down the pipe on a telestrator because mason crosby's had a rough year because a rookie snapper, rookie holder, everybody thinks laces is on the holder. It's actually on the long snapper. So I was just waiting. And the walkthrough the day before, I saw a couple

spins by J.K. Scott. Mason Crosby was kicking balls that were spinning. And they never kicked a field goal. They never attempted an extra point. But I was going to draw a dolphin on there for the Finkel einhorn i was i was i ain't never prepared for a bit like that before in my life and then i get on there that happens and i wanted to explain how the end corner guy that's literally

a job of his is to look to see if anybody's out there i did start drawing i started noticing i was a clear screen i I was a clear screen. I was like, I can't do it. You even stopped talking. Hey, that's the most you thing of all time though

to like work up a bit like that, have it ready, have a plan for it, it not to happen, but them to throw a touchdown off of a fake field. I know, it's awesome.

I love that they did that. The most McAfee thing I heard yesterday. Did you see that ref? Pause. Threw that flag fucking 30 yards. And the other guy goes, it's the wind.

I mean, you save the stats. Save all that shit. Give me stuff like that. You know what I mean? Hey, that ref. I was going to give him something for his hat, too. It had a steep bend. He had a steep bend on the hat.

It's like a flat bill hat. Aggressive turn. Aggressive. It was like 1999. Yeah, I was on that hat. Man, as soon as I saw it, as soon as I saw him come on the screen, I was just thinking like, all right, you think I'm good for that goddamn hat. You know, I couldn't I couldn't find anything that was I couldn't find just calling it out

and calling it aggressive. Exactly. The wardrobe comments killed, like you said, right away. Stafford with the short sleeves today. Aggressive decision. It was freezing. It was. I was free.

I couldn't feel my face. It was windy, too. Very windy, man. It was awesome. Okay, I have a question. You mentioned Jim Bob Cooter potentially being his last game. Is that something they were like, maybe stay away from, or did they want you to say something like that?

No, because I was very open. That was in the media everywhere. So there was no comments about it at all. There was nothing, literally nothing either way. But he's a, I don't want to say a friend of mine, but a guy if I was to see him, we would dap up and it would be a very positive experience from his time with the Colts. Right.

So I thought Jim Bob Cooter deserved a little like, like, hey, this guy's done a great job today. Obviously, he knows this year hasn't been great. And he also understands the business too, you know? I think that is, that's all I was trying to get out with Jim Bob Cooter. And you were like this year hasn't been great, and he also understands the business, too. You know? I think that is... That's all I was trying to get out with Jim Bob. And you were like, oh, what a great name. Great name. Obviously, I said.

Hey, how'd the bladder hold up? I had to pee a couple times. How was the box? Well, I didn't prepare. You know how I told you, like Michael Cole said, he doesn't drink. Don't drink water. Being an adult. I completely forgot. I was slamming hot tea before the game. Just slamming it.

And that tends to move quickly. Yeah. They had a bathroom in the thing, though. Oh, there it was easy. It was nice. It was nice. They got these suites next to us, though. These suites that are inside.

They got to be the richest people in Wisconsin. Like all these people that pay for the inside suites. Because everybody else was sitting on bleachers. Oh, yeah. 16 to 15 degree wind chill sitting on bleachers out there. Down 31 zip. That place was still 80% filled. Well, they own the team, so they have to be there.

Got a year-end meeting. Owner's meeting coming up. In the parking lot after the game, yeah. I met the president of the Packers. Murph. Yeah, he played in the league for eight years. I didn't know that. He was an ad somewhere northwestern

yeah yeah there it is that's why everybody's calling uh fitzgerald yeah yeah interesting stuff happening how about uh robert's fanny pack uh how did that play over the night before so he he just showed up to this meeting with a backpack and then all of a sudden his fanny packs there and i'm like are you a fanny pack guy and he was like you know i don't know why i haven't done it longer i just i just started doing it it's incredible he said he had all his things in there you know and i was like but it wasn't the fanny pack just a fan it was the the decoration of his it was loud it was a nickelodeon it was like a spacey yeah it was uh it was very and after talking to robert smith it came out of nowhere in In my eyes, it was like, this is off-brand for Robert Smith.

This is awesome in my head, I think. And obviously, it had to be Chavez. Yeah, he held it up like a championship belt. That was a booster in that little shot there. It was a great moment. It was awesome. Hey, just like you walked away, it's Tom. Robert Smith, made a Pro Bowl, retired.

Yeah, we had that conversation at a place called Chive's on Friday night, I believe. Cool place. Guy named Logan owns it. Logan. Logan. Good guy. I guess it's in the Rogers neighborhood. It's in the Aaron Rogers neighborhood.

So a lot of villages. Wisconsin's insane. We were in the village of a Schwababon. Oh, yeah? Excuse me? You heard me, man. A Schwababon. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

A Schwababon. Is that where you got the leather gloves? No, no, no. I bought those You heard me, man. A Schwababunt. Yeah, yeah, yeah. A Schwababunt. Is that where you got the leather gloves? No, no, no. I bought those here, but I should have. I should have waited to go to a village of a Schwababunt. And then to be, like, fun facts, they extended Green Bay City thing just for the stadium. The stadium is actually in a Schwababunt. Everything around it is in a Schwababunt. What is it, Ty? Do you know what it is? I have no idea. It's a Schwababun. Everything around it is in a Schwababun.

What is it, Ty? Do you know what it is? I have no idea. It's a Schwababun. That sounds good. I think it's a Schwababun. Schwababun. That state's incredible that way, yeah.

So then you drive 20 minutes and you go to the Oneida Indian Reservation and they have their own rules. Oh, yeah. They have their own fucking rules. Smoking in that casino louder than anything I've ever seen. They got their own rules. They have their own fucking rules. Smoking in that casino louder than anything I've ever seen. They got their own police. I haven't been on a reservation before.

Well, I have, I think, but a long time ago. I was a kid. I haven't been on a reservation as an adult in a long time. Went into the Oneida's casino there. Very thankful for that tribe. They gave me a lot of money. I mean, I won a lot of money in that casino. But I had to get out of there quick, too,

because of the smoke. And so shout out to the Oneidas. Legit shout out to the Oneidas. I learned about the Sky Woman. I learned about everything they believe in. I can fucks with the Oneidas. The Oneidas were going to get a big shout out during the game.

I just didn't know how to work it in. What's going on with Green Bay Uber? Heidi's got a van. Is it a minivan or a standard leisure van? It's a standard minivan with the kids thing. The seats? Yeah, yeah. And I hopped in the back, by the way, because it's not a –

so I normally get the black SUV, right? Because I would like – With the Wi-Fi. Yeah, because I feel like the person – I don't expect it. I don't expect it. It wouldn't hurt, though. I don't do much Uber, though.

I don't do much Uber. If I do, it's always in New York or something like that. I don't do much of the Uber. But there, there was no option. You either get the UberX or the UberXL, I guess. And the UberXL is just for parties of six or more people. Not if you want room like all i wanted was room and that was not what it was for it was i got in there and it was like

just you every time like i would shut the door and then they would sit and wait like two seconds just you yeah oh okay oh sorry about that there what of it want some space about that there no they're very nice though they're very nice, though. They were very nice. I was in that minivan, and we were just sliding all over the place. To get to the Oneida Casino, we were just sliding all over the place. You would have thought she was like an ice road trucker. There was no worries at all. There was no worries at all.

Everybody was just floating. I saw an accident. Somebody just slid into another person. Amateurs. Probably from out of town. No rubbernecking? Kept it moving? Just kept it moving.

Beautiful. The guy sitting next to me at that Kroll's place, the Butterburgers, the guy that got disgusted. So there was an intoxicated Wisconsin guy next to me. I did a little lap around Titletown because I wanted to experience Green Bay. And they have this place. It has a big sledding hill. It has an ice skating rink.

There's a bunch of bars there. And there's like a couple legendary places. Hinterland, I guess, is right on the corner across from Lambeau. Mason Crosby owns a portion of that, I guess. I didn't know that. Literally Mason Crosby's bar. So I went in there. I had some cheese curds.

The best. I have to. I disagree some cheese curds. The best staple. I disagree. Really? They were great. They were great. I understand it is a staple, and I understand you do have to do that, because I did. I actually did have to do that. I didn't love them.

Really? I was told I got the wrong color. I guess it was yellow or white. I went with the wrong color. To be honest, I don't know which one I got, because it was toasted. I prefer the white ones. Yeah. I think everybody says

those yellow ones have a little bit of that cheddar aftertaste. Oh, you don't like that Wisconsin cheddar? You don't like it? I just didn't love it. It's a little sharp. I would rather have a cheese stick. Mozzarella. Oh, nice fried mozz. I'm a fried mozz guy.

You know when you pick up Sprite and you think it's a water? Yeah. That's what I thought I was getting into. Okay, okay. That makes sense, then. It's not the same. It's not. I liked them.

I put it in ketchup. I enjoyed it. I liked it. You did what? You did what? Put it in ketchup. Ketchup? I don't think that's the best.

Gotta go marinara. I would do that. Well, it's not breaded. You can put anything in ketchup. Oh, so you just got just like the actual fried cheese balls. They weren't breaded at all? No. Okay, well, yeah, there you go. Yeah, you put that in ketchup. Oh, so you just got the actual fried cheese balls. They weren't breaded at all? No.

Okay, well, yeah, there you go. Yeah, you put that in ketchup for sure. Yeah, you do. It came with ketchup. It came with a thing of ketchup. We're used to fried matzo marinara. It's hard to adapt to another type of cheese and ketchup. This is no-nighters.

I mean, I wouldn't have disrespected them I would have tried it I did try it I ordered that And then I ordered their meat spread too I was like gotta do this That was probably awesome wasn't it It was I heard you

Somebody tweeted that They could hear Todd orgasm Looking at that plate of sausage Back to that Butterburger They put cheese in it too Hold on we're not there yet They put cheese in that as well So then I go.

So while I'm there, some people will, I guess we have a good following in Green Bay, by the way. We appreciate all you. Appreciate you so much for listening. While I'm there, there's starting to be a little bit, just a little conversation starting with people. And I'm like, where do I have to go next? And they're like, Kroll's.

You need to go to Kroll's West right over there and get a Kroll's burger. It's like, it's been around since forever, 1919 or something like that. It's been around forever. It's right across one block over so i walk outside i see a kid wearing my jersey right outside i'm like my man you're the best i think his name was trevor or travis appreciate you cuzzy and then take a picture and then a kid named dominic from miller light the green bay miller light who got recognized because he's dom from miller light it's just like in wisconsin I think everybody knows. Oh, nice. It's Dom.

Oh, you need a beer? Call Dom. He needs a beer. He was a nice guy. He walks me over to Kroll's. I go to Kroll's. Weirdest. Not weirdest.

Most interesting setup I've ever seen. Smoking or no smoking in bars in Green Bay? No smoking, but it's set up like a Denny's, and then there is a very intoxicated sports bar right in between all of the seats. So there was a six-year-old in her family, probably four feet behind me, sitting in like a diner-type table, and then to my right was this blacked-out guy

at one point in a packed bar. Not just like a packed bar. Only one seat was open at the bar i sat there large bar to probably like a 10 yard bar 10 yard bar with a big island around it tvs everywhere but you can hear everybody but the diner was also over here i was like oh this is cool head carpeting oh really classy head carpeting it was a step up to get on the back side of the bar like it was uh yeah it was cool it was i was like yeah this is the back side of the bar like it was uh yeah it was cool it was i was like yeah this is where i wanted i wanted to be at something like this right across

the street from lambo i mean it was uh it was a really cool thing and there's only one seat open in the bar and i sit down and this guy next to me is gone i mean this guy is gone gone just muttering like words to himself it's 1 15 p.m and i'm like i like this right like i am a fan so i gave him like the uh he had like flowing hair i'm like great hair cuzzy you know like the hair looks good man and he was like huh it's like hair looks good thanks and i was like no problem he was like he starts mumbling himself i if anybody's going to give me my food. And then a guy across, it was like as soon as I sat down, I'm like watching him.

A guy crossed the bar because we're kind of on the end of the turn there. We're in turn four. They were sitting in turn three. And it was an out-of-towners, two out-of-towners. And I knew that strictly because of this guy because he was basically like telling the out-of-towners to stop talking. He's out-of-towners and uh i knew that strictly because of this guy because he was basically like telling the out-of-towners to stop talking so then across the thing somebody reaches up to somebody who's in the straightaway and he's like uh is there anywhere to buy hand warmers or foot warmers for tomorrow's game you know and he goes hand warmers or foot warmers? It's going to be in the mid-30s. For cripes sake.

And he stands up and goes, I need my check. Pays his check. Leaves within 45 seconds of that person saying that. Was so disgusted. He was so disgusted with the thought of somebody getting hand warmers. With a 16 degree wind check. He was so disgusted with the thought of somebody getting hand warmers with a 16 degree windchill. He left the place.

I started dying laughing. Just absolutely died. Nobody had a clue really what was going on except for this guy sitting next to me who was in the Navy who was a big fan of ours. He was sitting like two seats down. He was watching it all unfold with his wife as well. We were just enjoying it. It was a show. We were there for the show. Got a chance to shake with him i ordered the crow's burger my exact order was

uh hi i'm from out of town i was just told i have to come here order me or can i have whatever i'm supposed to have right yeah it's my choice you know you know what i'm here for yeah i'm not here to get full i'm just here to try whatever experience. She goes, Kroll's burger? I go, yeah. She goes, okay. She puts it in. So she goes, it's going to be like 45 minutes.

They're packed. Place was packed. Place was packed. I'm like, cool. I'll just saddle up here, start having some conversation. My food and the Navy man food show up at the same time. He opens his. It's a double cheeseburger with cheese,

melted cheese, and melted butter on it. I opened mine. It was a single burger with a stick of raw butter on it with lettuce and tomato. Oh, no. No cheese. No cheese. So the lady brings it over and puts it down, and I go, what did he get?

He goes, that's a double Kroll burger with cheese. I was like, what did I get? You got the Kroll's burger. I was like, I guess you want to show me. And it was like, she just walked away. Obviously, she was very busy, right? So I just, she gave me exactly what they're known for, right? That's probably exactly what they're known for.

And I took a bite into that burger. Hey, they were doing some good shit with that butter it was really i couldn't finish the whole thing because i thought felt terrible eating just a stick of butter but i took like two bites it was delicious what kind of butter are we talking here uh it seemed as if it was just your standard in the stick unwrapped the plastic unwrap the plastic, cut it into maybe a quarter and just put it on. It was just a raw stick of butter in there. It was great, though. I couldn't eat the whole thing, but it was great. You can fuck up butter.

Salted or unsalted is a big deal on butter. Hey, butter's legit. I know some people, though, that don't love the butter, but they just substitute peanut butter for every butter that they have. Interesting. That's wrong. Everything that they do butter with, they put peanut butter on. I mean, I've heard of peanut butter on a burger. That's like a regional thing.

I like that. Somewhere does that. Like some city does that. If it's done right, I like that a lot. I think corn on the cob is really the only place where the peanut butter wouldn't work as the butter, right? Popcorn. Popcorn and caramel, right?

They make caramel popcorn. I was assuming that... I don't know. Has your Twitter ever been as active as it was yesterday? I don't know, man. I didn't get to see it. It was everywhere, dude. It was everywhere.

I didn't have the internet. I screenshotted the trends. Number two, it was Matt Prater, Pat McAfee, Detroit versus Green Bay, and then for the brand, of course. It was the third. Was that worldwide? Yeah, that was worldwide, I believe. This says United States trends.

That's good. That's your world. It's America. That's the world. Hey, that's cool. That game, week 17, meant nothing. Correct. Blowout.

Blowout. That was my favorite Lions game And I've been thinking about it I swear to God In my entire life I have not enjoyed Watching the Lions More than I did then

I swear Hey Here's a big surprise Also my favorite Lions game I ever won I mean it I'm with you It was

It was pretty tough But my dad is Like in terms of being a cynic about the Packers, he's me times a million. And he texted me and he was just like, tell McAfee, if it wasn't for him, I would have turned that fucking game on. I think the whole world would have heard of him. Hold on, hold on.

Not everybody, though. There was some Green Bay Packers fans that were not happy with my antics while their team was losing 31-0. I got a couple bad ones, but I think it's more on them than me. Yeah, me too. Well, if the Packers win, they're happy. It wasn't until halfway, maybe three quarters of the way through the third quarter that I even realized how shitty of a game it was.

I didn't even realize until almost fourth quarter, like, oh, this is a terrible football game. We got Deshaun Kaiser right now. Oh, I was so happy. Why? You bet on the Lions? No, when Kaiser came in. I mean, that's my great answer. He's a part of your award.

Yeah, but no, I did take the under, so I was very happy when Kaiser came in as well. But it wasn't until like the fourth quarter I was just so in. I was in, you know? I was like just kind of like, let's just see how we can make this a fun time. And it wasn't until the end of the third quarter I was like, this is a dog shit.

This is a bad football game. Todd Bet Packers. Sitting next to Todd. I had him for everything. I repped him in the four different parlays. It was fucking miserable. That part. But I enjoyed.

It was the most miserable I've ever seen Tom McComas. In anything. I swear to God, it was unbelievable. He goes, McAfee bump. Packers gonna win. Yeah, but I did to the Lions. I'm like, there's no way Aaron Rodgers doesn't score 50 points this game. McAfee in the booth. You talked to Darius Slay. He had a hell of a game. How was he? Not a big

talker. Yeah, that's what they said during the game. Yeah, not a big talker. Robert Smith said he loved talking to him and he said he wasn't a big talker. He was right, though. He was 100% right. It was cool talking. It was nice talking to him because he was just such a nice guy, but he didn't say much.

He was like, man, you're a corner, a Pro Bowl corner, by the way, which is a different level. You're the best athlete on it. Corners are the best athletes on the field. They have to do the most insane shit. are the best athletes on the field. They have to do the most insane shit. And he was just very not really,

didn't want to talk shit on anybody. This was before they knew Devontae Adams was going to be out of the game. He gave the singing praises of Devontae Adams, which you don't hear often. And then the conversation was kind of over there. Was he laid back or was he intense, like he had that laser focus type guy? It was kind of in the middle there. He was just very quiet. He didn't want to talk. I don't know what he intense like he had that laser focus type guy? It was kind of like in the middle there.

He was just very quiet. He didn't want to talk. I don't know what he's like with his friends. I wonder what he would be like with the teammates. I don't know what he's like there, but with us, it was very, very chill. One of the guys was like, yeah, he played against Calvin Johnson all the time, so he kind of got that from him, which I kind of thought was a great point. Yeah, so he did tell us, though, that his entire first year,

even when he was playing, he would do practice squad reps to go against Calvin Johnson because he started trying to name other people like Calvin Johnson. I was like, there's not many. He was like, yeah, but you understand why I wanted to play. I'm like, yeah, yeah. If you get an opportunity to play against Calvin Johnson, you're going to do that. But I guess he got cooked his first year. I guess he used to just get roasted.

He did, yeah. I guess that was his thing. He used to just get crushed. And PR people were like, now he's a two-time Pro Bowler, voted by the players. The fans obviously didn't vote for any Detroit Lions. The players and coaches voted him in. And it's been a real come-around, come-back story for Darius Slay. He was Big Play Slay.

He said, some people say I took that from Big Play CJ. I didn't. It was funny. I liked the way he played football, though. On that one pass breakup, he was trying to pass that to the safety. And they did, like, a breakdown of it. And I was, like, trying to get in there, like, I understand his technique, but he just tried to throw that.

He literally was trying to throw. You could see his eyes, like, try to throw it to his teammate like that's a that is a i couldn't even fathom being that athletic to in the middle of a 50 50 ball trying to bat it at the peak while somebody else is trying to catch it not just trying to break up the pass like like oh i should try to fucking throw this right over there aim the breakup breakup. Yeah. Pretty impossible. By the way, it was. It wasn't an interception. I think that's why it wasn't talked about. But you could see with his eyes that he was like trying to do that.

And I was almost mesmerized because we went into a commercial break right before that. Like, all right, we'll come back with his technique. Here's the highlights. And they show all three highlights. And the first one, I said, I think he was trying to pass that breakup. And they show the first highlight from behind i was like no and then the second one they showed his eyes i was like yeah he's trying to pass that and then the third one they showed it again i was like are we not gonna mention is that what all commercial breaks are like you just

basically go over like what happened before that there's a lot going on there's like hey this just happened hey we got to get this in hey this happened producer stuff a lot of that stuff happened there was was there a couple times you forgot you're on broadcast or you're broadcasting because you're commenting on the overlays? No. There was a time where- Yeah, they called you out. You were like, oh, that's pretty cool you guys do that here with the two screens up. And they were like, oh, well, you're part of this too, Pat.

Oh, yeah, yeah. Well, because when I'm watching at home and I noticed that State Farm started doing the State Farm commercial and then an image from the game. It was like a picture-in-a-picture commercial. Good idea. But from watching at home, I'm like, this is a good idea. This is a great way to get advertisers still watching the game. If anything happens, if a squirrel hops on the field, still can catch it, right?

So I was like, oh, I'm definitely going to talk about that. The Orville commercial came out. I was like, good job letting you guys do that. It's a good idea. I don't know who's listening back at home, but I think this is a good idea. I guess they, the Fox, a couple of the Fox producers that were working the game,

they've been around Fox so long, they've had to promote a lot of Fox shows. And they were like, tell you what, really surprised Orville made it to season two. Not because we watched it. Not because we watched it, just because most of these shows that we do, they try, because all these,

I guess they all try to promote the Fox shows every game. They're like a lot. We've promoted a lot of shows. A lot of shows. It's kind of like an inside joke. Orville, good for Seth MacFarlane. I'm a big Orville guy. I haven't seen it.

I've never seen it once. Nope. Ask Family Guy humor. If you don't like Family Guy, you're not going to like it. Seth MacFarlane's brain. Exactly, yeah. Good. I had a weekend of my life. That's cool. That's fucking awesome. It was awesome. It was a great fucking time to watch.

It really was. Got a lot of fucking people, all my friends and everybody like, that was fucking unreal. Like, they were losing their minds. How about Indy not playing it? Yeah. Weird move. I wanted to ask whose decision it is. I wanted to ask the five, but I'm not in enough to be like,

excuse me, who decides what game's going fucking where? I can't just ask that question. I wonder if it's the local affiliate. Yeah, first you have to draw dicks, and then you get to those questions. That's how it works, I think. I wonder who the local affiliates are. I wonder if the local affiliate decides, though. What were they playing here?

Yeah. Dallas Giants, by the way, which was a great game. Yeah. Which made me feelants, by the way, which was a great game. Yeah. Yeah. Which made me feel good, by the way. Imagine if that was a good game in Lambeau though. I thought about that on the plane as well.

I was like, I couldn't even fathom what I would have been. If they push you national? I couldn't even fathom. Yeah, if it's like the overtime game, if this is the Fox extra. Let's go to Green Bay.

Let's go to Lambeau. That would be crazy too, if you call an Aaron Rodgers like Hail Mary or something like that. What if that fake field goal was to win a game to go to the playoffs? Jesus. Hey, you think you'll be doing this every Sunday next year? Yes or no? Yes or no? Do you want to?

Sunday's a wild day. Do you want to? I would knock it down to one day. I think there's a lot of days football is played on. I would like it. I think I would want to. I enjoyed it a lot. A lot, a lot.

Get ready for it. Everything is going to be very interesting. You fly out on Saturday morning, 6 a.m., with the help of your friends at JetLynx, with Wi-Fi, and it's doable. And it's doable. If it ain't running, we ain't flying. By the way, shout out JetLinks for that play.

A lot of reflecting time made this show, so I think it's good. It would have been a good time to have Wi-Fi. It would have been a good time. I think the other networks are going to start hiring the Pat McAfees of the world. I really do. Because every network... By the way, there isn't. That is a very incredible conversation that you just started right there.

I am excited to see who they try to do that with. I'm very excited. I'm not sure there's many others. I honestly, and that might sound very cocky, but it's real. You said it earlier, too, because you have a blueprint, but no one else could copy it. I don't know. Well, first of all, you take the amount of people

who had a successful NFL career. That's a very small number of people. And now you're going to expect, all right, funny, funny people in the world are like the top 1% of people anyway. Hey, I was getting love from other comedians, by the way. I was getting love from other comedians. That meant a lot. You're going to take a guy who was in the 1% of top 1% of people anyway. Hey, I was getting love from other comedians, by the way. I was getting love from other comedians. That meant a lot. You're going to take a guy who was in the 1% of the 1%ers

with athletic ability in the football realm, and then also be the 1% of the 1% to be funny enough to be a comedian that's successful. Those two people never existed before. I think the interest... That means a lot, by the way. I appreciate that but i'm not i mean not everybody's gonna find me hilarious but i do believe that there's a lot of

people who are gonna attempt to do what i'm doing yeah and i'm excited to watch it i am very excited to watch it i want to do play by play though i do i really if i do it again I want to do play-by-play because I think I can do it. I've been told by my agents, the agency I signed with, when I first asked them, I was like, I think I want to do play-by-play, not color commentator because I think I can set up players with stuff that they haven't been set up in. I think I can control flow of the show. I think I can do that. You're going to tee off on me. I think I can control the flow of the show.

I think I can do that. You're going to tee off on me. Your position doing color is set up for you and your personality and everything you have to say. Play-by-play, brother. We're not getting that same. We're going to get it. Until when? Until, like, color commentary wasn't supposed to be how I was either.

So it's one of those things where I hate to slam a Pittsburgh guy, but Dennis Miller sucked in the booth. Exactly. He wasn't a two-time Pro Bowler. It's a whole different animal. You can even give us a three-man booth. If you want to give somebody on a defense, if you want to give

somebody on offense, somebody who has been in the locker room, I think I got it. Where you're coming from, though, it hasn't been done before. Dennis Miller was a color guy, but he was there to provide witty commentary. Tony Kornheiser, they threw up there as well. Yeah, but no one's been able to do play-by-play in an

entertaining, comedic way. Let's say we treat the play-by-play guy as the host of the show now. That's what it is. And now it's a different dynamic they've never done before, never had before. That could be really good. You're the host of the show. The other two guys wouldn't have to be funny because you're funny. Could you have it also, I think you look at the podcast, the interviews Pat does, he's going host of the show the other two guys wouldn't have to be funny because you're fun could you have it also i think you look at like the podcast the interviews pat

does like he's gonna bring the best out of those guys as well like and get them to open up i think i can get better at but it means a lot but like the ad reads but i think it's it's one of those things where i can do all the ad reads i have no problem reading or selling i have no problem with memory so if you need me to remember things, I think all the things that people have told me I couldn't do play-by-play because I'm nowhere near like... As polished or whatever. As smart enough to do it,

I think hosting a podcast in a three-hour series show is much more difficult than the ability to react to something happening on the field. Honestly, I do. And it's just... I think it's something...

I had a lot of success being a third guy. I've loved it. That'd be a great opportunity if it was a big opportunity. But I do want to give play-by-play a try. I want to really bad. Because that, by the way, me calling a touchdown is me doing play-by-play. Exactly.

You know what I mean? That's. So there were a couple clips of that that went pretty viral online on Twitter. So I was looking through them and I was scrolling through some of the comments just because I was curious to see what people were saying. A lot of love, a lot of love a lot of love obviously

and then there would always be like one or two guys like oh he stepped all over the play-by-play and i would look at their profile and they were like amateur or college play-by-play guys and i was like oh no one cares like no one wants a hero oh yeah he steps back throws it over to the left touchdown right some kid some kid i guess i called him a bum years ago he's now a media guy but he posted uh he posted a tweet about like mocking me being a great guy because of me calling him a bum like probably five six years ago to be honest and um by the way i was much better on twitter back then was i not awesome on twitter? I was going after advertisers of the Colts. Oh, God.

He had to call me one time. Oh, listen, this is true. It'd be like there was a thing out for two people in that building at one time. It was like you always got to be leery of what the owner tweets out, and we have to clean it up. They don't know what he says stays, and the second one was always McAfee. Whenever there'd be McAfee being out, there'd be a blow-up group text. Hey, check it out real quick.

Somebody talk to him or somebody not talk to him or see what he's talking about. There was only two people. It was her saying McAfee. The whole building. So it was somebody's job to get every single notification every time he tweets? Oh, yeah. Well, not one person. Yeah.

It was somebody in sponsorship. It was somebody in scouting. Yes. There was a fool. Hey, the best were always, hey, Joe, dot, dot, eat shit. I was so much better back in the day when I was smaller. I could have real fun. I went after one of the Colts sponsors.

He had to come talk to me. He was like, how do we make this right? I was like, make it right. Tell them it would be a better company. Is it a foreign car company? I won't get in the home. That one happened. There was also a jeweler. There was a foreign car company? I won't get in the home. That one happened. There was also a jeweler.

There was a jeweler, too, that happened. Thanks for that. I had to go to the dealership. Listen, guys, what he meant was... Anyway, is that car deal still on the table? They're like, get out. Anyways, I called that kid a bum. Because I said something about the media doing something. i didn't have a good relationship with the media i didn't i thought they were the ones who controlled the vision on how people were perceived by the masses which is what they are which is a lot of truth which is especially when

you're calling games so if i'm a monster punting the ball nobody has a clue unless the commentators are saying hey this guy is good, right? You're shaping people's opinions, basically. And I said something along those lines, and he was freshly graduated in college or maybe in college to be a broadcaster, and he said something about him knowing more about something than me, and I just responded to him. I go, you bum.

And he took a picture of it and tweeted out yesterday and was like oh it's nice to hear everybody calling pat a great guy this is back when he called a college kid a bum it was like i should have buried you hard you motivated him yeah you motivated him to become something yeah he did you graduate kid probably was a bomb too probably a bomb we would never be friends with this kid for a reason by the way for a reason but i used to be able to do things like that on Twitter. Now if I do it, a fucking million people will attack the bum. I don't want to make a burner, but I want to make like a,

like just like another, like hand this account over. I don't because I take so much pride in what I've built. With the help, obviously, Foxyxy the videos you put together incredible that that titans when you put together and then a year-end review one we put out last night couldn't do it without you but a lot of the building there twitter was literally just me and fucking 140 characters i have a lot of pride but man back whenever i was smaller it was a lot more fun it was so much more fun you just bury some fuckers because I don't get to talk shit much As a punter

You don't get to talk shit much Yeah And when someone comes after you too For doing something Like in that instance They only do it when they're threatened Like oh Obviously I'm looking at something

That's way better I'll never have a chance If this was the future You know what I mean I have no idea Because otherwise you're just like You just let it go i really i knew before that game there was zero nerves there was absolutely zero nerves first time i did stand up

there was zero nerves it was just like uh people were either gonna like it or they're not that's the way it's gonna go you're either gonna love this or you're not and by the way if you don't love me earlier early some of my closest friends hated me the first couple of days to quote jackson hated me he told the story he fucking hated me and once you realize yeah this is an everyday thing this isn't just uh this isn't just every once in a while this is this is real 247 this is a real thing it's uh yeah i'm very lucky i'm very very fucking lucky you guys are the best let's get the fuck out of here we've been here a long time. How are you guys doing? Happy New Year.

Oh, you know what? No, no, no. I want to hear some resolutions. Oh, nice. I want to hear some resolutions. Todd, resolution? All right. So obviously with this weight loss challenge, I'm cutting weight.

Part of that is I'm going to have to exercise in order to keep up. So my resolution is to be fit for the entire 2019 season. Nice. It's an aggressive resolution. The entire year. It's tough the entire 2019 season. Nice. It's an aggressive resolution. The entire year. It's tough. A whole year. Yeah.

Give yourself a break. There's somewhere in there. I'll give you January time, but after that. The number of times I'll put on a shirt and this is what I'm wearing when I go out, and then I hit the mirror and I'm like, oh, no. Fucking showed off my gut too much. I can't wear that shirt. That happens way too often Okay In my life now

So when you do that The thought Because I've had this often too Because I Man I crash diet And then I'm back And then I crash diet And then I'm back

I mean I ate a family size M&M peanut thing After fasting for what 72 hours So it's not Impressive if anything Thank you I am really

I am very much a Come and go Easy come easy go weight guy. Every time I look in the mirror, though, and I'm a little bit overweight, I try to talk myself into being like, you feel this feeling right now, you being fat? Remember that you hate this more than you like the taste of food. So then whenever I go eat the food, though, I'm like,

that fucking mirror, that's a one-mirror thing. It has been tough to do that And I really haven't exercised in the last decade So like I want to see what that does for me Because I just Maybe all I got to do is do some sit ups Two or three times a week

And then I'll be able to buy that shirt that keeps popping up On my Instagram feed Like oh that hoodie is really cool Oh the one with the shallop at the bottom Yeah that one is really cool It I can never wear that. Oh, the one with the shallop at the bottom? Yeah, that one is really cool. I can't do that because of my fucking gut. It's real thin. It's a thin hoodie. Yeah, yeah. There's no way you could wear that. No, no way. Me too, by the way.

No way. I take no offense to that. You're talking about the super cheap ones? They're like $15? Yeah, don't buy that. It's not going to fit like it looks in that picture. You don't know because of how fat we are right now. The fact that I can just look at the picture and know I look disgusting in it. It ain't going to look like that. I get it that I can just look at the picture and know I look disgusting in it. That shit's coming from Thailand and it ain't going to look like that. I get it.

I've had many things come from there. When you look at a picture... Well, you're an amoeba. You change shape all year round. You can fit in anything. Yeah.

I just want to be able to wear some of that shit without... Every time I look at a cool shirt, I have to worry, oh, is it going to show off my gut or not?

Well, hey, Todd, we're behind you. I want to let you know I'm behind you, but I think you should shoot for a six-month thing instead of a full year. Give yourself a little hope there in the summer.

At least gets me through the swimming pool season. What do they say? Nothing tastes as good as... Skinny feels. I just don't know if I believe that. I don't agree with that either. I got to get myself to that point. I think Gorman's at that point.

Gorman, you've gotten very skinny over the years. Getting older, bro. You don't see a lot of fat old folks. That's awesome. You don't see a lot of fat old folks. We're fucking covered by them. Are you kidding me? Yeah.

Everyone old is fat. Because all the fat old folks die. Yeah, they're all dead. They're all dead. I get mocked for eating a Subway sandwich every day. Yeah, but that doesn't make... The whole thing was a lie. The guy that was pitching that?

Lie. Yeah. The dietary plan of that thing? Lie. It was all a lie. Well, I mean, it's still good. I'm just saying. I'm watching you guys

eating fucking mushroom poppers every day. I'm going to have a little spinach and chicken breast. Do you work out at all? Because you look very fit. Yeah. Okay, so you can

spend some gym time. Okay, you do some stuff. You're a tennis guy? Yeah. He's the most racquet club looking motherfucker. Fucking club med over here. Diggs, New Year's resolution.

I've had a migraine since Friday. Apparently, that's a thing. Yeah, yeah. I would know. So I assume I'm going to care less this year. I'm going to stress less. That's good. That's good, boy.

My man. Eat more, stress less. Diggs, I'm going to be honest. Yeah, I know. I don't know how. Honestly, I don't know how you're going to be able to do it. less. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good.

That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's good. That's caring more, I think. I don't understand how that works. I don't think. It's like WebMD. You walk in there, you say something's wrong, you get cancer. It's over. You're worried. No, I'm thinking this because I don't get migraines, so I'm starting to think it might be something more.

I used to tell- So maybe live. Get through 20 times. Survive. I want to live to the roaring 20s. Okay. The roaring 20s is going to be an awesome time. Oh, yeah.

Okay. I like that. Good for you. Sam has migraines every once in a while. Yeah. Do they last this long? And I don't really get headaches, right? So I always thought headaches were fake.

I used to get so mad when you would say that. I did. He would have a headache. He'd be in, like, terrible pain. I'm like, those aren't even real, bro. He's like, I can't. He almost wanted to fight me and then the migrants i guess they're holding another live percy harvin yeah yeah percy harvin ir because of my joke

i thought it was honestly and i take this back about percy harvin because when it was happening internally i was like this guy just doesn't want to play football this guy i got a headache i got a headache and then i started getting headaches headaches within the last year or two, just once I turned 30. They're the fucking worst. These things are the worst. It'd be physically impossible to try to play football with a migraine. I can't even fucking imagine it.

They are the worst. I judged them too. I don't think I've ever had a migraine. I've had a headache, but I've never had a migraine. Same. Because I've seen people with them. It feels like someone's been drawing a fucking hole in my head for the last four days.

You can't even have a light since then. Your eye doesn't even work right. You've been drinking water? Yeah, I've been drinking fucking water. That's what I always said, by the way. Dehydrated, bro. Hey, you're getting ahead. Those are fake, man.

Just drink some fucking water. And I said the same thing to Sam. My lady, Sam, she gets headaches, migraines, or whatever. I'm like, you need to drink more water. Those things aren't even real. And then I got my first one and I had never seen somebody more like... Sam, my lady Sam, she gets headaches, migraines, or whatever. I'm like, you need to drink more water. Those things aren't even real. And then I got my first one, and I had never seen somebody more like.

What's going on here? Oh, does it feel like you don't even want to open your eyes right now? Oh, that's a shame. Does it feel like somebody's stabbing you right in your fucking forehead? That's what you feel like, huh, Dick? So you just want to survive? Yeah, pretty much. Oh, boy.

Appreciate you, man. And he drinks water. what you feel like on, Diggs? So you just want to survive? Yeah, pretty much. Oh, boy. Appreciate you, man. As he drinks water. From what I've learned in my studies, water helps. Water's the best. But also some other really serious drugs you can take for that, I think. I've been trying. Tried.

Tried. Oh, like doctor drugs? No, no, no. Street drugs. Street. Think of some street drugs you can take. I've been taking muscle relaxers in a lot of weeks. That's what I heard, yeah. It didn't help. Vitamins? Yeah, it didn't help. You look relaxed as hell. Thanks, man. I appreciate that. Yeah, the muscles look very relaxed.

Nick, New Year's resolution. Yeah, I gotta dial it back a little bit. We're dialing back to mom jokes. We're gonna take a step back. We're gonna go easy. And it's not because I feel bad about it. It kind of feels like you feel bad. No. It's because I'm tired.

I'm sick and tired of Gorman crying about it. I can't take it anymore. He's texting me over the weekend about tweets. He's going, look what you did to me. I didn't do this, bro. Who did? Who did? Who did?

It's the mafia. They come out and they're like, hey, Gorman's mother was underneath him. Everything is Gorman's mother was underneath him. Everything is Gorman's mother was underneath him. All right. Hold on. No, and then I get one. The one I text you, the one I screenshot, I'm like, come on, bro. I mean, Jesus.

Yeah, I didn't send it. What do you want from me? Yeah, but you brought everybody in the arena. You brought everybody in. To where? No one's making those jokes if it wasn't for you. Brought everybody in to where, Gorman? To the arena.

So they're all teeing off on me. They're all teeing off on Doty. To your mom's house? To Dolores' house? Oh, no. Jesus. You already fucking blew that resolution. It's still 2018, buddy.

Are you still doing the January thing that you talked about? I want to, but it's my dad's birthday in January, so I feel like I owe it to him. Nick wasn't going to drink all day. I was going to go sober completely junior, so I still might do that. I might take a day or two to go. You'll be a joy to be around.

Christ. That's not what your mom said. Yes! Let me have one day here. Let me have one day. Norman, your New Year's resolution? Yeah, it's a two-parter. Both work-related.

First off, I've got to figure out the guy who I work for. I can't figure him out. I'm not having trouble. I know him pretty well and stuff, but he comes fucking barreling through the doors today. Don't anybody talk to me. Don't even look at me. I need some time down.

I've got an interview in 30 minutes. No questions. That's it. Leave me alone. What was your problem with that? He comes walking out of his office basically with a microphone. Okay, here's what I got. What do you want us to do?

You want us to shut up and fucking bury our face in the thing? Diggs, please. Diggs, please inform him why. Well, he came in and he didn't want to talk to us because he wanted to save it for in here. Yeah. For the microphone. For the microphone.

But then when he came back out, you just have to tiptoe your way around that conversation without bringing up things that would be brought up in here. Yes. So this is a little Jim. Two different things. Hey, listen. This is a little mental Jim Kh show. Yes, so this is a little Jim. Two different things. Hey, listen, this is a little mental Jim Khanna, okay? You've got to bounce around, okay?

What can we talk about? It's a mental mind show out there. Without spoiling the show, got it. Because my first response, best response. So if it's a forced question of an answer I've already had that everybody's already heard before, by the way, not going to be good. Same thing with everybody else in the room.

So we ran into these issues where I would come into this office, and we're all friends, so we all want to talk. We'd have a full conversation, and it's like, fuck! We talked about everything. We've got to cover everything. I actually thought about having my phone mic'd up at all times so we could catch conversations that happened. So when I came in, I knew

there was going to be a lot of questions. No questions! It's an ongoing joke, obviously, but it is a real thing too. It's like, yo, let's not fuck this conversation up now. Let's have it on the microphone. You're the new Zito. Zito used to be the king of fucking conversations.

Zito did it today! No questions. As soon as I walk in, I go, listen. And then, by the way, I came back out of my office. Great to see everybody. But Zito, as soon as I get done screaming, no motherfucking questions. I don't even think I took a breath after that word. Zito goes, quick question.

I will say I have toned it back a little bit. I think so. We'll be sitting on the chairs and Zito will bring up this incredible topic. It's like the funniest thing he's said in fucking months. It's like a game at this point. I love when he does it because it's like a challenge.

This is the stupidest question I've ever been asked but can I fucking make him laugh with the answer? It's like little fury we play no, but as a business a small business The little bit of intelligence and magic that comes out of Zito's mouth. We need it to be recorded It keeps morale up though Anywhere else it keeps morale up. What do you mean anywhere else? Outside this room. So there's any more out down, I'm bringing it up out there.

See, this is that mental Gymkhana that I'm sure your brain has quit on early. But Zito, you have these moments of the most brilliant things I've ever heard in my entire life. Just somehow out of nowhere it just comes out. And literally every person

in the room stops when that happens. Then there's also this other side that's just down here at the bottom. This is the dumbest thing I've ever heard. Tell them what you said yesterday. I can't wait to hear it. Guinness beer is the lightest beer. I saw that on somebody's story. I don't even know how that comes out of your face. It is the

lightest beer. To me it is. He also wanted to argue that we shouldn't celebrate on New Year's Eve. We should celebrate on New Year's Day. No, I said I got confused. What night do I get drunk? Tonight or tomorrow? He literally asked that. I never know. I just follow each other's plans. What night do we

get drunk? Tomorrow night, right? It should be New Year's Eve. New Year's Day should be the day you party. I didn't know that they treat New Year's Day with as much respect as they do. They shut down stores. It's confusing. It's confusing. Winter Classic. It's like the same as Christmas

as far as stores being open. I had no fucking idea. I mean, I sent in a group text. Oh, shit. Tomorrow's New Year's Eve. I guess. I almost felt like, I guess tomorrow's New Year's Eve. It was so reluctant. It was awesome. We got to weigh in New Year's Day. Today we would weigh in. Yeah, tomorrow we'll have

our first weigh-in. We're going live probably 10... We said 10 a.m. Let's make it noon. So we'll go live at noon. The official weight loss challenge begins today at noon. First weigh-in. Bet at mybookie.ag. Odds are out.

Odds are out. Who's in front? Zito's the favorite. I think plus 170-something. Plus 175. And then Tim McAfee is second favorite. I don't know his exact odds. Plus 230.

And then I'm third at plus 300. So you're going to make money regardless if you bet on this. Especially if you bet on Todd. Especially if you bet on Todd. What's yours, Todd? I'm like plus 375 or something. Underdogs, baby. Underdogs. I like it. on Todd. I'm like plus 375 or something. Yeah, underdogs, baby. Underdogs.

We're a team dog. It's a good position to be in. MyBookie.ag, promo code Pat. Get 50% bonus on your first deposit. Get your bets in now. Everybody's an underdog. Everybody's got good money on them. Diggs is clearly going to win, and he's got the best value.

Can I give you a free win? I'll give you a free win. Nick and Diggs are a team. Zito and Evan are a team. Connor and Todd are a team. And Ty and Tim McAfee are a team. That's why Nick just said what are a team. Zito and Evan are a team. Connor and Todd are a team. And Ty and Tim McAfee are a team. That's why Nick just said what he just said. Don't take that with anything else.

Let me give you a free win. The over-under for the winner on lost pounds is 32. Hammer the over 32 on that. That's a good hit. Okay, there's free money. So you bet on everybody. You're making money back on your money. You use the promo code PAT.

You're making money on your money. And the over of the 32 pounds, Diggs just said, is a guarantee. And he's a competitor in the weight loss challenge. Yeah, it's a guaranteed loss. Zito did 32 last time, and we didn't even work out. I did 28 last time and didn't work out. I assume we're going to lose more than 32. You know what I'm going to say?

You know what I'm going to say? What are you going to say, dude? What are you going to say? You know how you all have been living a pretty good life Oh yeah You know what I mean If somebody asked me to go back right now And work out with Mike Barwiss

My college coach, strength coach Which I did get asked Whenever he had a TV show called American Muscle and Discovery Channel I was asked directly, Pat will you come work out for this show I looked right at his face And I said when I was asked directly, Pat, will you come work out for the show? I looked right at his face. And I said, when I was broke, yes.

I'm comfortable now. There is no way I would go through one of your fucking workouts ever again. I'm worried you all might be a little bit too soft. I don't know if that edge is still there. I don't know if Zito, who is still trying to make his way in this office, would just sit there and only eat four pieces of lettuce on a daily basis for 30 days and lose 32 pounds. I don't know if it still exists. I think you would if you put $9,999 to win.

Oh, so that's the driving force? Oh, yeah. Yeah. $9,999 is the driving force? Yeah, what do you think I'm thinking for? What are you getting with it? I'm definitely putting it down to a new car. My lease is coming up. How much is a down down to a new car. My lease is coming up.

How much is a down payment on a new car for a lease? It depends. You can put it whenever. But however much you put down, your monthly payment is less. So you being smart financially, you're putting more down up front? So my monthly payment is less. Obviously, that's what a smart financial takes. My girlfriend keeps saying if I win, we're getting a new fucking dog.

You're buying a dog with a further brand? That's what I've been told. Just go adopt a dog. You think I would adopt a fucking dog. You're buying a dog with a further brand? That's what I've been told. Just go adopt a dog. No. You think I would adopt a fucking dog? I'm getting a fucking brand new fucking dog.

Let's assume that just like you said last week, your opinion is changing day to day. Let's hope in 30 days from now, we'll get you to adopt,

not shop, 70 bucks. But you're going with a down payment. We literally have a down payment. Yeah, adopt, adopt, adopt. We have it. Yeah. In a week, things will change.

That's on me. But a down payment for a car. Yeah, yeah. Okay. I have a whole list. I had a list of- By the way, a new animal. Even if you buy it, you're saving it for whatever.

Don't worry about that. Get to home. You should definitely adopt. Let's not get crazy because you're feeding into things that are terrible whenever you buy dogs. you're saving it for whatever. Don't worry about that. Get to home. You should definitely adopt. Let's not get crazy because you're feeding into things that are terrible whenever you buy dogs. Neither here nor there. Big puppy milk guy. You heard it here first. I did have a list

here. Wish list, when have money again. Okay, good. A new car, a street bike, finish my tattoo sleeve, an AR-15, enroll in a 401k. I don't know if you're 18 or 45. Such a diverse portfolio of things.

Oh, you're going to travel that one around? 401k of course give me some stocks and stocks oh my god well you know after your gun just got stolen you want to get

Let's go, Zito. That's the last two months. Two months, you think? Yeah. I'm thinking that one doesn't get off the ground. I'm thinking that plane is... I don't think it does either. I don't think doesn't get off the ground i'm thinking that i don't think it does i don't think that's getting off the ground zito because i mean that is basically you though i mean that is it's the gift of zito and the curse

uh incredible job uh by the team by the way putting together those cult shirts incredible job those shirts look good. Those shirts look good. Those Eagles shirts look good, too. Eagles shirts are good. I like that Eagles shirt. I might wear that Eagles shirt. I really wanted a Pittsburgh rerun the North shirt. Didn't happen.

How'd you feel sitting there watching Cleveland? How about when he didn't challenge it? Right, and that could have been the game winner for them when Williams didn't challenge it. Could have been a game winner. All I could think of was Diggs talking about, I don't know why I expected Greg fucking Williams to challenge the right call and the Browns to win.

I thought there was going to be a full on. It was actually a weird week for me because I was a Browns fan this week, so I had no expectations going into the game. So there was no real letdown yesterday, actually. I didn't think they were going to win at all. So there was no real letdown. And then I had this fucking pounding headache the entire game. So I was a little more reserved than normal.

And then when it ended, there was like five, ten minutes of disappointment. And then there was a weird sense of relief. It was awkward. It was a weird day for me. So you're like, I don't have to care anymore. Yeah. It kind of felt good, actually, to not have to care. Because this Steelers season has been quite an up and down.

It's been unbelievable. From fucking starting the overtime game week one. Oh, before week one. Yeah. Will that be on? I mean, it's the off season. There was like two games all season, like the Falcons and maybe one other game where shit wasn't just off the wall the entire time.

Hey, Mark Madden saying Antonio Brown could have played Chosinato. That's all right. I mean, if you can't beat the Bengals, you don't deserve it. I was tweeting about the Browns, like complaining about the Browns. Jarvis Landry missed that one catch and blah, blah. And guys like, oh, well, Steelers are losing right now. It doesn't even matter. Like, is this your first Steelers-Bengals game, bro?

They're going to win. This is what happens. They play down the first half. They suck. And then they come back and win. The Bengals do what the Bengals do and fuck it up. Speaking of doing what they normally do, Gabbert Cousy. I got a text from Gorman.

It was like, Gabbert, you said he's going to throw two picks late. I was confident he was going to throw another pick. He's on the award. Four minutes left. We all knew what was going to throw two picks late. I was confident he was going to throw another pick after the four-minute left. He's not. We all knew what was going to happen. That's beautiful, man. Good mustache on him, though.

I think the Colts are a really good team right now. That defense. I like them. That defense. I like them a lot. I'm all in. They're playing for each other, too. It seems Aaron Rodgers in um the pre-production

conversation what he's looking for in the next coach and he said camaraderie matters and i think i've said this a lot if you like your your teammates you're going to play so much harder and better for them because you're playing for them not with them and it's a big deal that colts team seems to be synced up really really well well. They like each other. I was watching videos from the airplane after the game last night. Whole place is dancing, much like that Eagles fucking team meeting video I saw. That team likes each other a lot.

And I think Frank Reich and Andrew Luck are very much on a similar wavelength when it comes to brains and the way they act. I think he's pulling the strings, and Andrew Luck is loving it. I think they are a dangerous team. I think they're a very dangerous team. Did you see T.Y. do the avoid getting up?

Oh, yeah, yeah. When he was running down the right side. Yeah, he's a talented guy. I'm telling you, he's a talented guy at that. And you know, you can tell his ankle hurts so bad. Oh, yeah. He's still making the plays. It's fucking incredible to watch.

There's that one that was real tight that he dropped. I bet you he was very... He's got that underdog mentality. He always has, always will. I think they look good, man. Patriots? Oh, yeah. Patriots are the Patriots. Yeah, we said this

a while ago. Who do they lose to, you think? In the playoffs? Yeah. I think we lose to probably the Jets week one because we're winning the Super Bowl, baby. We're going back and we're winning the fucking Super Bowl. No way. Yeah, way.

No way. After watching Brady sling it, watching the defense play at home, because I think the Chiefs are going to lose to the Chargers, and I think the Chargers are going to have to come to town. I'll tell you what. I love what you just did right there because us all saying no way and you saying that if it does happen is going to be an incredible clip for you. This is exactly what happened in week three.

After week three, I said they were going to somehow still end up with a bye, somehow still end up with a home field advantage and go to the Super Bowl. I agree. It's terrible. I agree. You have said it. But it doesn't matter. Football is football, man.

Detroit Lions beat the Patriots. A lot of things had to fall into place for us to still. They're going to walk out of here. They ain't winning it this year. Really? You're a negative. You say no way. Whatever.

I said no way to him when he first said it. Here we are. I wouldn't doubt it. But you can't say no to that. Tom Brady, playoffs, Bill Belichick. Honestly, I have no idea Who's gonna It's wide open

Yeah Especially the AFC The AFC's wide open So is the NFC But the Saints And nobody can really Hang in the Superdome Nobody can hang in that place

I think they can Yeah but all it takes Is right Oh Drew Brees gets Even the greats Every once in a while Will miss a throw You know what I mean

I really like My gut I like Chicago My gut's selling me Chargers I haven't been as great. I really like Chicago. My gut's selling me Chargers. I'm looking at the Chargers. There's another AMC. That's who I think is coming to us. Could be his last run.

I think it's a good time for them to do something special. They have good odds, too. It's like 18-1. Colts are going to be the Texans, so the Colts are going to go to the Chiefs. I don't know. They played three times. This is the third time they've played this year. They just lost at home to the Colts.

You think they're going to lose back-to-back games at home against the Colts. I just don't see it happening. Texans? That line is dogs. I like the Texans, but PFF Mike called it before the season even started. He was on The Bachelorette, this motherfucker. He was an intern for us for a week and a half. He is a good dude at PFF.

He said going into this season that the Houston Texans have the worst documented offensive line in the history of football. He said exact words and it has happened, but still though the Texans have won the AFC South without it, but in the playoffs, that's when those little things get exposed. I've been on a couple teams where stuff like that has happened

because all it is is this like the speed of the NFL in preseason is like say two gears above what normal college games are okay nfl pre-season like two two gears above whatever a college game is then when you get in a regular season it's like somehow everybody's gotten faster again and then when you get in the playoffs it's hey, we got nothing next week, really, potentially. It is all-out speed. And then you get into the Super Bowl, it's just full-on car crashes, everybody flying.

The playoffs are just another level. And it's not another level for every team, by the way. It's only another level for the teams that are real. And I think this is where we're going to learn a lot about teams that are for real and teams that are not. And I'm excited for it because this year has been wild. Here's why the Texans have no fucking chance. So each of these quarterbacks threw around 650 times.

Luck was sacked 18 times. Patrick Mahomes was sacked 26 times. Sean Watson was sacked 61 times. Aaron Rodgers was sacked 50-something, I guess. The second most sacks since 2006. In a season? Yes, in a season. I mean, that's a shit ton.

He's a stud, too, right? Michael Jordan, they say. He's coming back off an injury. He's just getting knocked on his ass. That's stud. 60 sacks is a lot. Nobody's talking Baltimore. What's going on with Baltimore?

Hey. I think they're very dangerous. The high school offense is going to get fucked up. Hold on. I think they're very dangerous. Hold on, though. In the playoffs, if some team... Can go to Gillette and beat those guys?

That's a running ball, a running game. Let's control the time. Let's do all this. But what's going to happen is if they make... Let's say they make it to the Super Bowl. Some defense coordinator is going to have two weeks to prepare for that. They have no shot. That's what I think.

I think they'll be really good. I'm intrigued to see what they do with that offensive style in this offseason to see how they change it because i do believe that nfl defensive coordinators and nfl coaches are smart enough and players too they figure out these that's why i'm very interested to see what the chargers do because they already played them once and they got the best of them they beat them up a little bit now chargers get a second crack at it i don't know i see i'm intrigued because it just everything comes i remember the wildcat was just like the greatest thing ever the wildcat and then rpos is everything everything and then it's gone and then anytime rg3 came and he went offensive rookie of the year when andrew luck broke peyton manning's records

here because he changed the game and then chip kelly all these things are supposed to happen all these things are supposed to change it, and then you just get some genius, because all you need is one out of all of them to stop it once, and then everybody else is like, oh, there it is. That's exactly how we figured out. But I don't doubt that Harbaugh and Lamar and them will be able to adjust it in this offseason.

I think they're going to be able to really come. Next year, I think that Ravens team is going to be dangerous. I think any team whose defense is good enough that they can hold anybody to 14 points or less has a chance of winning the whole thing. Old school football. Sam Cooke, punting, grinding, pond, literally. I love the people.

Remember, I said it last week. The people were like, Hey, props to Seabass, yeah? What do you do? I mean, just delivers kick. Last week, the people somebody tweeted Lombardi guy tweeted that the Ravens might be able to be really good if they

let Lamar do more or something like that. It's like, yo, they are just winning. That's all they're doing. I think they've got to figure it out. It's real, though. All you gotta do is get one more point than the other team and do it. And yeah, he can expose a bad defense as well as anybody. I mean, he's fucking that dude.

He's the most athletic dude on the field, probably. I mean, corners, obviously. Corners are very athletic. But he looks faster than everybody. He looks like a real. Got to see how he holds up. He's running the ball a lot. He's going to take some shots.

He has the T.Y. Hilton. Yeah. He has the T.Y. Hilton not take big shots. He's smart about it. But eventually he's going to get, regardless, he's going to get tagged a few times. We'll see if he holds up. He's a thin guy. I honestly believe that that ability to not get hit is a real talent.

Because at the beginning, I think when I saw T.Y. do it the first time, everybody started yelling at him, and I was like, oh, man, maybe stay in. And then once you see him for two or three years do it, you're like, oh. Pat, that came from Marvin. Yes, exactly. Who then went to Reggie. Reggie went to T. exactly get down bro you're you know you're 185 pounds get the hell down hey way to go you just picked up two more yards yeah you ran that corner over instead of being a 32 yard game it's a 34 yard game that's crazy it's 100 right but people

crushed them for it early just like they probably crushed Marv, which they probably crushed Reggie. It's a real talent. I think Lamar has it. Lamar Jackson has that talent. This year's last year's Eagles. Does that make sense? Baltimore is last year's Eagles, no?

In what way? Just like, not there. Nobody gave him a chance. Well, you know what? Lamar Jackson starts for Flacco. Really good defense. They go on a run. Really good defense.

Seems like they like each other. I think Lamar Jackson probably loved in Baltimore, by the way. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah, for sure. Probably loved in Baltimore. His answers have all been good, too. Like, one of the reporters asked him, like, what do you think about, like, this being your team now? And he's like, well, I don't think it's my team.

Like, it's our team. We're a unit. Everybody wins together. Everybody plays together. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It was like a we're a togetherness kind of there in Baltimore. I like that. Tough for Flacco

to walk in that complex the last couple weeks. I mean, he's been doing everything right, smiling, helping the kid out and everything, but you're driving by yourself

to the complex to be a backup? He's making $20 million? I mean... You know what? Jacksonville. Maybe he's about done, you know?

We talked about it. If Lamar takes a shot, if he takes a good one, you're going to need Joe. Joe Flacco comes back. Jalen Hurts. Jalen Hurts situation. I can't wait for the playoffs, man. I'm excited for it.

Shout out to Seabass, man. Let's get the fuck out of here. Hashtag endgame, hashtag endgame. Send us some New Year's resolutions that make us laugh. At Tom McComas, at Diggs with a Z on Twitter, at NotTheFakeDiggs on Instagram. We're working on that. I emailed some lady with 16 followers if I could get at D-I-G-Z.

Yeah, what'd she say? She didn't get back to me. Buck up. Buck up. It's wild. I'm trying to match. You pay $100 for that? Buck up.

It's wild. I'm trying to match. You pay $100 for that? I got a lot of tweets, by the way, to go to the sardine can in Green Bay. I guess that place is electric. Strip club? No. It sounds like one. It sounds like one.

That's what they call going small. Okay, guys. Welcome to the sardine club. Next is cinnamon on stage two. Sardine can't. Can't. Have a little respect. Pat Anger told me to go to Bean Snappers.

That, I guess, is a... Bean Snappers. Bean Snappers is a legendary fucking name. Yeah, I guess that's an adult ballet. I't go anywhere though but i was getting like these hateful tweets from people at sardinia very friendly at the beginning was that like 2 a.m comments to the whole thing the the the place actually sent me a dm on instagram i read it very nice i guess that place is wild though i've heard that place is wild in Green Bay. I want to give them a lot of respect for trying to get me to come out and see the place.

But I knew if I go in there, what happens? I'd probably miss the game on Saturday. So I'm sorry for missing it, the sardine can. But I will at some point in my life come back to the sardine can because I've heard nothing but legendary stories about this place. I would go there and just be like, yeah, we're packed like sardines in here. All right. First hike of the year. Happy New Year.

He gone. That kid. He actually put that thought into words. He was like, yeah, I should let this come out of my mouth. It's food's here, actually. Genius. That's exactly what I was saying earlier. Brilliant and dumb.

At Nick Moroto, at Moroto412 on Instagram. Yeah, I tried to buy the other one. They tried to extort me. Oh, yeah? How much? A couple hundred bucks. I was like, I'll give you $75. A couple hundred bucks?

I think that's you and that's what I want I want to maintain happiness in 2019 and also um i'd like to echo foxy's second one i like us all to get very wealthy yeah i think that's what we're gonna do i think that's the plan i think that's the plan and then i'll the plan is to go to an island yep everybody knows this plans go to an island and somehow that island will have better Wi-Fi than a plane. The Gorman setup. I already talked to him twice.

The island or? The plane. We got Wi-Fi. It's going to be fucking, what do they call it? Air Force One. No, no, no. They were very nice. Yeah, they're good people.

No, they're very good people. So if they're listening, I apologize for Gorman going off about the Wi-Fi. It just happened in a conversation. It wasn't a real complaint. You guys did great. I appreciate it. Ty? I think I'm just going to try to quit chewing at some point.

No way. That's not you. I think that's what he said last year. I did. Didn't really try, though. Didn't really want to. I think I'm ready, though last year. I did. Didn't really try, though. Didn't really want to. I think I'm ready, though. I need to quit.

Yeah. Black Buffalo quit as well? You're just quitting tobacco or quitting just chewing, period? No, chewing, period. I don't want that vice anymore, so I'm going to try to get rid of it. Because it's the habit, right? Yeah. I don't have any sort of buzz from it anymore or anything.

It's just an oral fixation now. And you know the headaches you're about to get when you get out of there. They're tough. You're on that Diggs level. Yeah, but drink water. Drink water, man. On your detox. The two DTs is a real fucking thing.

Oh, yeah, I know. I've been through the throes of it a couple times. Ty, you're already so pleasant. I don't know how much more pleasant you could get. I think you're worth it. It's not for me. It's for us. It's for you guys.

It is. I need you to live a little bit longer than what you are trying to do. I need you. I do. Maybe we add that one in there. Can we add a 1A? Yeah, sure. The things that you let into your body?

Well, that was going to be the other one, to not order out as much. I'm not even talking about that. I'm talking about the seven Red Bulls. I've cut back on Red Bull quite a bit. Okay, good. That's good news. Think about the amount of money you would save if you didn't order out 365 days a year.

I know, I could buy a new car. That food, though, is so good, especially when it just comes to you. It is, and I'm too fucking lazy. And you don't have to do anything. I don't want to make anything. Maybe my goal is to have a chef in here for us. Now, granted, that's going to be tough. No, that wouldn't be easy.

They could probably, I don't want to say meal plan for you guys, but they could make food. That would be awesome. They could make food for you to take home. The Colts had a guy named DeWitt who would have to make specialty orders for Dwight Freeney. These people have special diets. It be awesome. They can make food for you to take home. The Colts had a guy named DeWitt who would have to make specialty orders for like Dwight Freeney and these people who have special diets. Yeah, reindeer meat. Yeah, it was awesome.

Seriously. It was awesome watching it happen because DeWitt was the man. Chef D was the absolute man. OG and the whole thing. And watching him have to learn with the new food trends so that he could – it was awesome to watch. It was like Vontae was on a good diet. Frini was on this wild fucking diet.

It was great. I would like to have that for you guys. That'd be awesome. Or just someone to tell us what to buy. No, you'll never do it. No, because I know that because I have met with like five nutritionists that have all been employed probably by the Colts

and I've been forced to talk to. And I always go in there with a good attitude this is what i would like i'd like a jawline can we get a jawline for the kid i'd also like the gut not to be there as much so just like todd said earlier i can wear better better clothes that fit better and i'd also like to look a little bit skinnier on 4k television okay that's That's nutrition. Everybody else is like, I want to be more explosive. I want to be able to run longer. I want to be able to, I want to be stronger. Me, I'm like,

I would like to look better on 4K TV. There's always this full on, yeah, I'm in, I'm in. And they go, okay, this is what you got to do. Just like what he's doing with Diggs with the whole setup. And then as soon as you get to like item three on there,

you're like, hmm. Not for me. I think I'm probably just going to be able to get to like item three on there you're like not for me i think i'm probably just gonna be able to get out of here but if you have somebody actually making the food for you and giving it to you i think that's a bigger deal so that's okay yeah i literally just i'm not asking a lot it's literally and this is a true thing just want to not pull my back out trying to get my pants off before i have sex. That happened to me last night. There's new fucking skinny jeans that are tight. They're tighter around my ankle now.

And if you just try to kick them off and you get stuck, boom, sciatica. The right side is fucked right now. Sciatica. It's the worst. Just trying to get my pants off so I can fuck. What a fucking group of humans. I was like, fuck pumping season. Hey, at that time

You just got to lay back Just focus your pants on next time Gator you got any resolutions New dad maybe I hear less about my father's sex Hey shout out to Chris Lidell Lights out who came by today Who's Chris Lidell, Lights Out, who came by today. Who's Chris Lidell?

Literally scared the piss out of me. Hey, he's going to fucking knock your teeth out next time he sees you. Well, remember, you're like, Gorman, don't let anybody in the place. I think my first day here, I was like, come on in. What do you got? And he's like, oh, just here for a McAfee interview. I'm like, oh. Chuck Lidell's brother.

What did I say? Chris Lidell. Who was it? Say it again. Say it again. Say how you think. Now that we're all laughing at did I say? Chris Liddell. Who was it? Say it again. Say it again. Say how you think. Now that we're all laughing at how you think. Chris Liddell.

Okay, give it another shot. Chris Lights Out Liddell. Try giving it a little. Chris Liddell. Yeah. All right, anyway, he knocks on the door. It's raining out. I'm not letting anybody in.

You're the only one in here. I'm the only one in here. I took down some Christmas stuff for you today. Give us the office a heads up. We lived those up all year. What are you doing? Just kind of put them back to where they were. Am I in trouble for that?

I'm a fucking idiot. Yeah, I like them up all year. It gives the place a little personality. Well, I took them down. I guess I know what I'm doing after this. Putting them back up. No, but this guy, he knocks on the door, and he's got ground beef for ears. You know what I mean?

I'm like, what is this? I'm watching Deliverance again. By the way, Lytle, I love you. He's now a friend. What's his name? Chris Lytle. Lights out. So he's like, are the guys here? And I'm like, no, I'm the only one here. And he's like, I'm a friend of Tom's, Todd's, and I'm a friend of Pat's, and I want to, you know, I want to...

And I'm like, okay, well, what do I do? Right now, I'm squirting myself because he looks like a fighter, but I let him in. Nice little talk with him this morning. He's got a bare-knuckle fight in Cancun in two weeks. That's a true story. Bare-knuckle fight in Cancun. He's been in a couple of those.

He's an unbelievable man. Thank God Ty came in. Jeez. Thank God. He's a very – At least he's an unbelievable man. Thank God Ty came in. Jeez. He's a very... He knew it, man. Want something to drink, sir? In water. Did Matreon come by?

No, Matreon wasn't here. Is Matreon back there in the glass? Yeah, he just walked in. Did he really? Hey, what's up, Pat? You guys got any ice cold beers here? What's going on? What's going on?

Anytime Matreon or Lytle show up, it's a situation where you can't do anything. We had to cut something out of the show. For future reference, I would like it to be known, there was nothing that I said. And it was nothing that would ruin our company at all. No, no, no. Nope, no.

But it gave us this reaction. What we need you to do to win a $500 gift card to the patmcveyshow.com store. $500 gift card. Great new playoff merch too, by the way. Oh, yeah. Great new. It is something hilarious.

So if you can guess exactly what happened to lead us to this laugh, you win a $500. This laugh was going to get cut from the show, but it was too good. The entire office lost it. I was in full tears. I think you'll hear me say that I'm in full tears. There was five criers in the room from laughing too hard. What led, what comment from who led to that situation? Oh, shit. I'm not keeping that that one's not staying alright that's the show have a good one Ty Schmidt happy new year All right. That's the show. Have a good one. Ty Schmidt.

Happy New Year, by the way. And thank you all so much. Without you, there's no way I'd do that game. Without you, there's no way we do what we do. We're so thankful for you. Have an incredible 2019. We hope you continue to rock with us. Ty Schmidt.

Hit the music. So we talked all night about the rest of our lives Where we're gonna be when we turn 25 I keep thinking times will never change Keep on thinking things will always be the same But when we leave this year we won't be coming back No more hanging out cause we're on a different track And if you got something that you need to say You better say it right now cause you don't have another day

Cause we're moving on and we can't slow down These memories are playing like a film without sound And I keep thinking of that night in June I didn't know much of love but it came too soon And there was me and you, and then we got real blue Stay at home, talking on the telephone We would get so excited and we'd get so scared Laughing at ourselves, thinking life's not fair And this is how it feels

As we go on, we remember all the times we had together. And as our lives change, come whatever, we will still be friends forever So if we get the big jobs and we make the big money When we look back now, will our jokes still be funny When we still remember everything we learned in school Still be trying to break every single road Will little brainy bobby be the stockbroker man Can't ever find the job that won't interfere with pretend I keep, keep thinking that it's not goodbye

Keep on thinking it's time to fly And this is how it feels As we go on We remember All the times we Had together And as our lives change From whatever

We will still be Friends forever We will still be friends forever La la la la la la We will still Friends forever Well, we think about tomorrow like we think about now? Can we survive it out there? Can we make it somehow? I guess I thought that this would never end And suddenly it's like we're women and men

Will the past be a shadow that will follow us around? Will these memories fade when I leave this town? I keep, keep thinking that it's not goodbye I keep on thinking it's the time to fly As we go on, we remember All the times we had together And as our lives change, come whatever We will still be friends forever

As we go on, we remember All the times we've been together And as our lives change, come whatever We will still be friends forever As we thought of, we remember For the time is real, back together We remember, all the times we've been together And as our lives change, or whatever We will still be friends forever
