We got a couple huge interviews. Huge interviews. And when I say huge, I mean mammoth. Quentin Nelson. Big guy. All-pro rookie offensive lineman from the Notre Dame. Indianapolis Colt left guard, who is an absolute monster, a pancake-giving animal who went viral for a fake video, gives us an exclusive interview.

He turned down Scott Van Pelt. What? He turned down Dan Patrick. Yes, he did. He said no to Rich Eisen. Can't do it. Nope. The Washington Post, Sports Illustrated.

Nope. You name it, this guy says no, no, no to every interview. But today, right here on the Pat McAfee Show 2.0, we have an exclusive, in-depth conversation with the man behind the pancakes. Wow. We dig deep. Going to learn a lot. We dig deep.

Deep. For those that don't do a lot of interviews, whenever they get a chance to do it, it seems as if they're willing to just open up. Wait until you hear that. And then T.Y. Hilton, perennial pro bowler, perennial difference maker in most games for the Indianapolis Colts, wore the clown mask into the stadium in Houston

because he got called a clown by Jonathan Joseph's 34-year-old ass, gives us a 15-minute interview that you're going to enjoy.

With that being said, it's time to get to this one and only, anomaly, exclusive interview with Quentin Nelson. A guy that doesn't say much, but does a lot on a football field, Quentin Nelson.

How's it going? All right, so I'm gonna make this very simple. It's just gonna be a yes, no. All right. Okay? I know you don't like to talk much. You're a I like to work guy. It's just gonna be yes or no, simple stuff. Okay, let's go with some nicknames.

These are all things that you've been called on the internet. Okay. You probably don't know about them. These are nicknames that people have called you. You just have to say yes if you like them. No, if you don't. Alright. Q-Nasty. No. Earl Grey?

No. Scouts were calling you that in the NFL before you got in because of the tea bagging thing. Because of pancaking people. Mount Q? No. Hard no. That's a hard no. Forklift? No, another hard no. Q-tip because you tip people over?

No. Mean son of a bitch, somebody said. Yes. How about the juggernaut? No. Yikes. Give me that shirt back. You can change it.

You can change it. I mean, you do what you got to do. That was it. Man, a few words. So I felt his shirt. It was sitting on his knee when I was doing this interview with him. And it was so hot, which basically made me realize, hey, he hates everything he's doing right now. He's getting heated.

But also, the man, you don't take things from this guy. No, no. What an exclusive interview that was. Incredible. I feel like I know everything I ever wanted to know about the guy. He's not a talker. No. Nah. He's not a talker. No.

He's not a talker. Did like mean son of a bitch. Mean son of a bitch is the nickname he'd like to go by. So maybe we have to change the juggernaut shirt and make it the mean son of a bitch shirt when the team of extraordinary gentlemen. But that guy is your prototypical offensive lineman. I've never been more uncomfortable in my life talking to somebody. And I mean that with every ounce of my body. There was no way I was

breaking him. I feel like I can break people. I feel like I can get them to put their guard down. I feel like there was zero chance. As soon as that microphone went on him and he sat next to me, it was over. As soon as he walked his foot in the indoor facility, he wanted the hell out of there. I turned around and we all,

hey, nice to see he had nothing to say to anybody he just walked up then pat did his thing i started soiling myself because i say this is not good this guy does not want to be here 330 pounds of man that does not want to be on a camera no i asked him a couple questions before that by the way what you're hearing there is the majority of our conversation true True. I got out early. I got out early because I was like, we're just wasting his time. There's no way.

He was very nice that he allowed us to chat with him. Very nice that he did that. But he is a guy who doesn't want any attention. He wants no media attention. That's why when that viral video went with the fake scream, he was pissed off about it. He just thinks it's a we thing. It's not a me thing.

Just let me block people and get the hell out of here. And he likes the nickname of mean son of a bitch so there it was exclusive interview quentin nelson all pro offensive uh lineman there rookie huge get did the uh huge get any anything from the other lineman about him or is he just a silent killer okay so directly after that interview with quentin nelson conversation quick chat we'll call it quick chat with quentin Nelson. Conversation. Quick chat, we'll call it. Quick chat with Quentin Nelson. That's what that was. We had a quick chat with Quentin Nelson. I go to leave the building. Jeffrey's with me. We both made a lot of friends in that building. They've remodeled it. The training room is directly inside now after you go in. They asked me if I wanted to go see the training room. I'm like, sure. So I go go walk up it's all remodeled i peek my head

in and it's all the trainers and physical therapists that basically have rehabbed me from three surgeries i'm very tight with these people and they all go hey patty so i walk in there it's a very you know it's like the old days we're all joking vinatieri's in there he comes says what's up he just got out of the hot tub he's coming over a lot of ty's in there which you're gonna hear an incredible conversation chester rogers in there anthony costanzo also in there a guy that i went to japan with they were calling him godzilla japan real story true story it was awesome he and i he he also offensive lineman mentality like right he's an offensive lineman and he has his head down he's getting something like a maybe a rollout on his hammy before practice they're just kind of keeping

him loose getting everybody loose before practice. And they go, Pat, how was it out there? And I was like, I've never been more uncomfortable. I felt like I was holding him hostage. I felt like he did not want to be there. I thought he might have killed me by the end of it, so we ended it a little bit early. Costanzo starts dying laughing, dying laughing,

hollering laughing over everybody else in the training room and he goes I never would have guessed and then just goes right back into it and I go what the fuck does that mean Costanzo and he just laughs and turns his head I think everybody in there was pretty excited to see how that conversation went because

that guy does not want to be on the camera or on a microphone that's why he says no to everybody by the way and that's why I feel like he was held hostage to do the interview with me. I feel like everybody was like, you have to do it. You have to do it. And he gets in there and it was like, well, not to us. Do you think the Colts organization made him do that interview strictly because they wanted to see what you did? Yes.

Your reaction. I believe that that interview was being held strictly. That one was for them. That one was for them. Listen, we don't ask you to do much, but we're excited to see how you handle Mack. By the way, loves the

team. Team, team, team guy. Huge team guy. Never seen somebody be more of a we thing. I told him, like, people are saying you're the greatest offensive lineman to ever. This is off microphone right before this conversation. People are saying you're the greatest offensive lineman to maybe ever come into the NFL. And he goes, group.

And then that's it. And I'm like, can't even compliment. Normally you just win a guy over with a couple compliments. Let's get him to loosen up a little bit. Zero, zero, zero fluff helped him out. Zero fluff. Just wanted to get the flip out of it. I am being forced to do this.

Let's have this conversation. And we got through his nicknames about a minute and a half into the conversation. I was like, yeah, I shouldn't waste your time anymore here, bud. And we got out of there. And then I went and told him because Stans was like predicting it. But there was a conversation we had with an NFL player, a Colts player, who did some very viral shit this past weekend who's a good friend of mine who i've got a chance to kind of

transform and watch transform and this was a good conversation ladies and gentlemen ty hilton hi how's it going couple chairs couple mics two dudes one of which is an absolute superstar friend of mine teammate of mine in this past weekend walked in to NRG stadium Reliant stadium whatever they call it in Houston with a clown mask and teabagged the Texans for the first drive which inspired this t-shirt, by the way, TY. Made that for you. Hey, I appreciate that, man. No problem at all. That's sweet, man. I appreciate that, man.

We got a lot of shirts for you here. You're also on this one here. This one in the middle, the ghost, you see? Oh, there you go. Oh, there's some bad dudes right there. See, a lot of people forget the genius, the nerd. We'll talk about. The ghost was a nickname that was founded in Houston, by the way,

because people were saying he was disappearing behind the defense. The Ghost nickname started until old balls Joseph decided to call him a clown. You got the Goat shirt. You got all this stuff for you. Hey, I appreciate that, man. I'm very thankful for you. Appreciate you. I'm very, very thankful for you.

What happened? Hold on. Uh-oh. Okay. Uh-oh. Uh-oh. So there's two interviews we can do here. Okay. Okay. Mm-hmm. There's a hard one. Topics are on the back of this. Okay. Hard interview. Then there's an easy one.

Okay. This can go two ways depending on you. Okay. If you can roll a point. If you can roll one point, you get the easy interview. You can't, you get the hard interview. Okay. So, what number do I have to roll? It's up to you. You go ahead and start. We have the come out roll.

You pick your thing. If you hit seven, it's an automatic win. Eleven, automatic. Twelve, you lose. Hard interview. Nope. I lost. Hard interview.

Let's do it. That is a terrible roll, by the way. If I am in the casino with him running the office, he's going to show up. Why did Joseph piss you off so bad? Man, I don't know, man. He just, I don't know. I don't even know why they was interviewing him.

But he called me a clown. Nah, but he called me a clown. You know, I got a bunch of text messages from a lot of guys. One being one of my best friends. He texted me the bad boy quote. Shit just got real. I responded. Just added more fuel to the fire. I can't wait to get down there.

I've told people this. As soon as it happened and as soon as I saw you walking I actually put a tweet out with the video that said ty might go for a thousand yards today strictly because of this You're a player who has a chip on a shoulder ever since day one you go to FIU over WVU Which is complete bullshit. I assume that you should have went to West Virginia hindsight That's neither here nor there But some of the bigger schools kind of passed you by because you were undersized and all that stuff. Then you dominated FIU.

You weren't a first round draft pick, you weren't a second round draft pick, the Colts take a shot on you. And you have this chip on your shoulder mentality. And when somebody talks shit to you, I've actually witnessed it. It just brings out this, it's almost a mentality that you want to bury the person.

Am I accurate with saying that? Absolutely. You know, Mia, I'm a good guy, a humble guy. Very nice, very quiet. I don't mess with nobody. I rarely talk smack to anybody. So for him to come out and say that about me, you know, I didn't say nothing to you, so why are you coming at me?

So, you know, my saying is, you know, it's better to let the sleeping dog sleep. Oh! Don't wake the pissed off dog up yes uh you know I feel like he you know he gave me that day that extra boost I didn't need but he gave it to me so when you talk smack I want you to back it up so I went out there you know I did what I did help my team win you know I did everything I could so I helped my team win. You know, I did everything I could, so I felt good about it. That was very out of character for you, though, because you are a very quiet guy. You're very reserved. You kind of don't do that.

And then you walk in there with a clown mask. By the way, could backfire. Just for future reference, that could have went a very bad way. Not that you ever thought of it. Not that you ever thought of it. But as a person that lives on the Internet now, if you guys don't win that game, you know that goes the complete opposite direction with you being a clown actually. Yeah, me being the clown. Yeah, so I want to come out there the first

drive and let them know that it's about to be a long day regardless of whatever happened. I had to bag it up, so I came out in the first drive and I bagged it up. You have an ankle issue right now? Kind of a hit or miss. Not hit or miss. You're playing. I'm talking about you're in sometimes, you're out sometimes. They're kind of picking their times whenever they want to use your energy and your injured ankle.

How are you feeling going into the playoffs? Everybody's hurt, I guess. Everybody's hurt. But for me, it's rare because I don't really deal with these injuries. I rarely have them because I take care of my body a lot So for this one, you know, it's it's tough, but you know my team need me So I'm doing everything I possibly can to make sure I'm not there. Have you become a real leader in this locker room? I mean, you're one of the longest vested players in the Colts whenever I was with you You're very young Reggie Wayne was the OG in the wide receiver room. He leaves. You're now that guy. Have you enjoyed that role?

Oh, absolutely. You know, Reggie set me up perfect to be in the position I'm in. You know, he told me everything I needed to know. For, you know, the day he retired, I stepped out that, you know, I was going to have to assume that role. You know, Marvin did it for him. He did it for me. So it was only right that I continue and pass it down.

Is this a hard interview because you wrote a crap there? No, man. I love it. I love it, man. If you had to rank you and your kids, who's the most athletic kid in the family? The most athletic? Including you. I feel like your one child can smoke you. I saw a video of him on the internet

and he was more athletic than anything I've ever seen in my life. Not right now, but right now it would be my youngest, Ty, my youngest son, then my oldest son, and then my daughter. But she's pretty fast. But the youngest is probably going to be the best one, although my oldest has really stepped up his game, and he is a problem. When did you become a father? How old were you?

I was going into my senior year in high school. So maybe about 16, 17. This happens a lot by the way. This happens in the world a lot. High school athlete has a baby and then the conversation normally turns like well he wasn't that good of a dad because he had to go do his business you and your family are tight you got a tight group your lady's still around since high school you got your kids with you you seem to really like thrive and being a

father absolutely you know having my my oldest in high school helped me become a man early and I had to grow up quick. You know, I had a son I had to provide for, take care of. So, you know, both of our families did a great job of making sure, you know, we had help and, you know, to help us grow up quick. But, you know, me and her, we've been together since middle school. She was in the six, I was in the seven.

So we pretty much know each other inside and out and just having her around, she makes my job easy. I see a lot of Gucci shit. I think your family might be the most Gucci-'d out family I've ever seen in my life. She does everything man. I just show up man and put on whatever she has for me man. So all the looks for me and the kids is the wife. She gets all the credit. This team's really good man. You guys were a rough start obviously. Stumbled out the blocks. One in five team trying to learn about themselves. You guys are really hot right now.

Why is that? I think it came down to us having that team meeting. The players only meeting. And from that moment. Did you talk in there? You know I don't talk, man. I was about to be so surprised if you were like, all right, I'm going to talk. Yeah, you know I don't talk, man.

But a lot of guys stepped up to the plate and said some things that really hit home to a lot of players. And, you know, we got a lot of young guys, but, you know, we told them, man, you're not young, man. You got to grow up quick. If there's a question you need to ask, man, just ask it. And we all kind of just kind of met and let everybody know, man, we got to bring it, you know.

This is unacceptable. And, you know, one in five was very unacceptable of what the talent that we had. So we came in, went back to work, went strong at it, went hard, and we're here. You like Frank? I love Frank, man. Frank's a great dude, man. He's one of the best coaches, man.

And he's the player's coach. You know, he always about the players. And, you know, that's great to have. And we love playing for him. And this team right here is full of guys that love ball and you know, as long as we continue playing the way we're playing and everybody's playing and doing that role, we'll be a tough team to beat. I agree. You can't talk about this, but I can.

I bet very heavily on you guys. It's a nice little perk of being retired and I want to let you know you're the man. You are the absolute man What do you see in the Chiefs? Oh Tough team. It'll be a tough environment. It's gonna be loud. You know, that's the one thing I'm trying to tell the guys It's gonna be loud, you know, but it's nothing we haven't faced, you know It's gonna be it's gonna be some pressure but the pressures on them, you know We just got to go out there just play our game and you know, you know

Whoever take the field first offensive defense, you know, let's take field first, offensive, defense, you know, they take the crowd out of the game. Andrew Luck, obvious comeback player of the year. He spoke to Frank Reich early and said that he was like your champion for you. He was like, TY needs to be on this team. Because I don't know what anybody would be thinking about potentially moving you, but maybe they were thinking about a rebuild or who knows. But Andrew Luck openly came out and said like, TY is my guy. Whenever he was missing practice reps, whenever he was injured years ago, your answer was always like me and Andrew Luck are just on the same page. We're on the same page. No matter what happens we're on the same page. Andrew Luck told Frank Reich that said even though TY might not run the

route exactly how you draw it up, he and I know exactly where we are. How does that happen with a guy from South Florida and a nerd from Stanford? How can you two, by the way, that nerd's an incredible football player. How can you two be such a on-sync duo that people don't really talk about enough? It's our chemistry, man. You know, at the every, every play, every play, we always communicate at every play. You know, he always, he looks at, every play, we always communicate at every play. You know, he always, he looks at me, then he gets the play call. And then even when we go on the sideline, we always communicate what we see, what should we do. You know, seven years together, man, you know, a lot of games, a lot of practices, a lot of training camps, a lot of offseason work.

So we pretty much know each other inside and out. I know these things. He knows what I'm thinking. And then, you know, once we come back to the sideline and make our adjustments, you know, we might not hit it the next drive, but at some point in the game, we're going to capitalize on your mistake. You guys going to win by, like, 50? Like, what are we thinking?

Win by 50 this weekend? We just got to get it done. And this group right here is good. You know, going to the playoffs, the one thing you need is a team that's hot. And we're hot, so we look forward to it. It's going to be a great game, but, you know, we can do it. Tell the team that during the national anthem. Oh.

They better be ready. In the home of the. And everybody's going to say it. It is so loud. Hey, when we were over there, it was freezing cold. It was Bruce Arians. Yes. When Bruce Arians, he actually gave us a halftime speech.

It was like, it's cold as fuck. Let's win this game and get out of here. Get out of here. That was his actual halftime speech. It was like, listen, here's the deal. You're cold. We're cold. Let's win this game and get the hell out of here. Get out of here.

It was probably three quarters full, which was incredible because they were already out of it. And their fans were lit from the beginning. And that Chiefs yell was one of the most impressive things I've ever heard. It's like a war cry for them. I swear. I swear it is. It really is. It is.

And if you're not ready, it can do some things to you, man. Just standing there, national anthem, like, oh, what a moment. I'm in the playoffs. And then all of a sudden, like 70,000 people just scream, gee, shit! That happened to me. That happened to me. I almost pooped. It was so cold, I almost pooped.

Yeah, it's crazy, man. It's crazy. Is this the most fun you've had playing football in a while? Oh, yeah, man. It's very fun, man. Just being around the guys, man. It's cool. Is this the most fun you've had playing football in a while? Oh, yeah, man. It's very fun Man, just being around the guys man. It's cool man, and they love they love this They love what they do and they love this game and they're all in man. They bought all in from the week six So it's gonna be special man

And like I said, man, like I tell them just just enjoy the moment man And when you enter seize the moment, you know in football the player the play don't care who makes it so long as you there and you're able to make the play you're gonna be fine the play don't care who makes it ty is normally the one making it you caught a ball in triple cover just past week Andrew threw it into triple coverage is also another way to spin that but you came down with it early you're one of my favorite humans to watch from when you were young in this quiet chip on the shoulder kid to getting wealthy which you should have because you earned that and now you're taking on a

leadership role it's been cool to watch you become the focal point of defenses and see how you handle it it's been really cool i appreciate you man you should have went to West Virginia, though. Your kid's stupid. Neither here nor there. Good luck, man. I appreciate you, Pat. Which ankle is it? I can't tell you that, Pat. What's wrong? Which one is it? I don't know. That was that with T.Y. Hilton. Legend. Hard interview, by the way. That was a hard interview. If you were a better dice player, easy interview. This thing would have been done a long time ago. Oh, man. You rolled 12 on your first roll.

Hard interview. It's what I have to do for any respective journalist out there. Hey, if it's easy, then I don't want it. I like to work for it, so. Chip on the shoulder. Kid's going to dominate Kansas City. The home of the cheese! Good luck, dude.

Appreciate it. Thank you, T.Y. Thank you. So I got to see T.Y. Huge thanks to T.Y. and the Colts for making that happen. Also Quentin Nelson. But T.Y., thanks for coming on. T.Y. doesn't do a lot of interviews either.

And when he does interviews, he's almost like standoffish with the people because i think that chip on his shoulder he always thinks people are going to try to kind of screw him over fuck him over i was excited to hear him talk there because he's the same ty he was whenever he was young broke now he's wealthy he's the guy he's all over the place and he's the same guy he's been with the same girl since junior high he's got a hundred kids and he just balls out. I'm happy for me that guy pissed him the fuck He took a shot him in the interviews. I have no idea why they're interviewing him Whatever he was like, I don't know why they're even interviewing him. I was like, oh little subtle shot there I have a question. Why does he go by T Y because his name is Eugene. Thank you

I have a question. Why does he go by T.Y.? Because his name is Eugene. Thank you. That's what he's always told me. Really? Yeah. Thank you. T.Y.

He goes by T.Y. for thank you. Really? Yeah, I have no idea if that's accurate. Because I kept looking for a middle name that was like T. or Y., but it's literally Eugene Marquis. What year is this for him? Six? Year six in the NFL for him? Seven, maybe?

Six or seven? Seven. He's been telling me the same answer for seven years, that it's for thank you. idea what that means no idea how it started but ty is a hell of a name and his celebrations dope and he hated that jonathan joseph guy and i i just hey just let sleeping dogs sleep i think that's what was so surprising to me because like you listen to him talk and his story and he's so mature and all he's dealt with through his whole life. And then he hears one remark like that, and then to react the way he did, he didn't say anything, just shows up with a clown mask and puts on a fucking show.

Well, I think it was, you got to remember, when everything gets gassed up, his friends texting him, everybody's like, oh, oh, I call you a clown. And TY, competitive guy, but a nice guy. I think he was doing that strictly for his friend base that was like gassing him up. And it's playoffs, by the way. A lot of players that he might be friends with aren't in the playoffs right now,

so they're just at home watching too. So they can send texts to gas him up. I've told this story numerous times. That practice squad corner was the only other person that I've seen be on the other end of this. And that kid quit football, I think, after. T. think after ty is really that sleeping dog quote is a real thing because there's chip on the shoulder people you just add a little bit more of a chip on there or disrespect them a little it's over and ty has a huge chip the reason i really love that he made that move was because

he is mature enough and been around a long enough whatever to realize once I do this, I cannot allow myself to fail. Because that could have went the other way. People would have crushed him. So for him to put that extra pressure on himself, I just fucking love that. Warm-ups too. He had his hoodie on. They took pictures of him

in warm-ups. He had his hoodie on, music on. It was like a whole other thing. I'm just begging for somebody from the Chiefs to be like yo ty's a piece of shit i just want somebody in the andy reed kingdom over there to just come out and say it because that was awesome to see him just like lock in and it's uh terrible craps player yeah tough 12 crapped out first roll yeah for i didn't even have really like i didn't even sit back down yet you watch the video on the youtube but i didn't even sit back down yet and craps out oh jesus box cars jesus stuff yeah by the way the play don't care who makes it it's chuck

pagano oh my god that's a great quote that's a chuck pagano that's a life quote play don't care who makes you what got me is like like you think of NFL players and you think they're all monsters, but we see him in person. He's not very big. He's a svelte guy. He fucking dominates. Medium shirt. Yeah. That got me too. We had to make a medium shirt for him.

Did you see his eyes light up when you gave him that shirt? He had his vision. Plus you gave it to the kids too for his kids. Kids shirts. Love it. Beautiful. I think T.Y. is the most underrated wide receiver in the game.

I know everybody was saying Keenan Allen because Keenan Allen is never on national TV and stuff like that. But from watching T.Y., he puts up 1,000 yards every fucking year. They're very close. Every single year he puts up. And he's undersized. And he's had five different series of andrew luck's by the way throughout his thing he's had the almost hurt andrew luck he's had the the hurt andrew luck he's had backup quarterback he is just the only constant really

on that offense is ty hilton's gonna get his numbers and by the way team guy he's a quiet guy he doesn't start shit in the locker room which a lot of of – by the way, wide receivers kind of have that. I mean, that's just what wide receivers are. They're greedy. They're athletic. They're incredible. But sometimes there's drama. TY, there's no goddamn drama.

It's just like it's a very – he's a cool cat, man. Well, as I was going to say, you can tell how – I can't even imagine what type of fabric you have to have as a human and the maturity you have to have to have a kid at 16 and 17 and still make it to the league. And by the way, be a superstar in college. And still keep the same girlfriend that turns into your wife. I couldn't even imagine

what type of human you would be. I think that's a good measure of who you would be. They've been together since middle school. Jeff Bezos got a divorce, obviously, after becoming the richest man a couple years. More power to them for the amicable split. I honestly believe this weekend that the colts have a good shot against the chiefs and i'm only saying this because yes i am

emotionally attached to the colts because i would like to see them win win for the sake of the people that work in that building the groundskeepers the athletic trainers the janitors the the play everybody's life is much better when you win granted they've accomplished something that nobody thought they could this year so off season for those people probably be solid anyway but man this is a hot team that can make a run and for the kansas city chiefs an offensive dependent team rhythm dependent team i don't love the bye week i don't love the bye week for the kansas city chiefs especially with the ricky quarterback i really don't love the bye week. I don't love the bye week for the Kansas City Chiefs. Especially with a rookie quarterback. I really don't.

He's his second year, but you get it. I don't know. I think that helps them almost that he's young because he's kind of ignorant to the situation, how big it is. But for me, the timing of everything in the offense, I don't know. I didn't play offense. I mean, perfect passer rating on Thanksgiving.

I mean, that's something to be said. But I just feel like that Houston game did nothing but help the Colts, both mentally, physically, everything. And the Kansas City Chiefs got to sit home against the Houston Texans and help the Colts. Kansas City Chiefs just sat at home there. Could rhythm be busted up? Could they be slow at the start?

If they're slow at the start, the Colts have a defense that can stop people. So I think the Colts are in a good spot, although that Kansas City Chiefs team is fucking – Well, not choosing sides, though, but more game fill, more game plan. Isn't that better? For which side? For the Chiefs? Yeah.

Well, it could also be for the Colts, too. Andy Reid's one of those guys, too. He has an astounding record off the bye week, something like 16 or 17 and two. But that's because you can prepare for a team for two weeks. This time he didn't know who he's gonna play i think he knew who he's gonna play you think he knew the colts were going into houston and went in yes really really who didn't know that vegas a lot of people no no they were the most bet dog of all time in the playoffs yeah but vegas thought they were they were underdogs they were underdogs to begin with so i mean it's

it's something where yes andy Andy Reid probably prepared for both. Let's assume he prepared for both. I was going to ask, is that a reasonable scenario where he looks at at least preps? Oh, yeah. Beginning phase. Oh, yeah. You would prepare for both. But still, that offense was humming.

As long as we get to the fourth quarter, I don't care. Andy Reid's going to shit in his shoe. Yeah, that's true. But here's some concern. Andy Reid's season did end a long time ago. And everybody seen it happen. Everybody watched it happen. That Chiefs team, but they still got a bye,

so they still had an incredible year. And Patrick Mahomes is different, man, but so is Andrew Luck. Concerning stat, dome teams going outside are 8-24 since 2003. Colts aren't technically a dome team, though. It opens up. They have a dome that they can close, but not every game is held inside. 99% of the games. No, that is not correct at all.

72. I don't even think that's correct at all. I would say 60% maybe of the home games because the beginning of it, anytime they could open that thing, they fucking open it strictly because the taxpayers had to pay for it. It's nice out though, right? Even if it's not nice. They opened that thing a couple

years ago and it was like 50 some degrees. Everybody was pissed. People were pissed. They're like, it could be 70 and sunny, but you have one local journalist who's like, taxpayers paid for that roof to be open. Do you remember that? The sun's out.

It'll be 50. Will they have it open or not? And then I feel like the cults are like, oh, this motherfucker, we have to open it because the taxpayers. That thing's open more often than not. Is that Jim's decision all the time? But that is a scary stat.

That is a scary stat. It's supposed to be like 38 in Kansas City this weekend, though, so I don't think the weather's going to be too crazy. And Kansas City's been awful at home in the playoffs. There's like so many things to go into. 20-some years or something. Matt Hasselbeck said the other day they hadn't won a home playoff game. Oh, in six in their last playoff game?

They lost to Titans last year. They lost to Steelers the year before that. Then they lost. the Steelers the year before that. And then they lost. Maybe the Steelers get it. Okay, so Colts, Chiefs. We're all in here on the Colts strictly for personal reasons, right? Think the Chiefs could win. Shout out to Travis Kelsey, by the way, friend of the show.

But, boy, it would be awesome if the Colts stay hot, which they are. Hottest team in sports right now. These shows are just a thing of art, really. A Bob Ross painting, some would say.

conversation patriots chargers a lot of people wondering about the patriots dynasty this weekend would be the one that would either make it or break it. Make by continue the dynasty. Break. If you lose in the divisional round, this isn't the Patriots. This isn't the Patriots dynasty that we know. They lose in the AFC championship game. You could be like, they still made it to the fucking AFC championship game.

They're still in the final four. They lose in the divisional round though to old Phil Rivers, old man Rivers and the Chargers. That could be a lot of questions. Last time they won in division was to the Ravens when they had Ray Rice. That was the last time they won. Is that when Cundiff missed left? I don't know. I know Ray Rice had

a 70-yard touchdown, like the third play of the game. I think Cundiff, there was somebody that dropped a touchdown in the corner of the end zone. Lee Evans. And then Billy Cundiff jogged out late. He almost had a delay of game. Missed the ball left. Patriots win. They go on.

I think it's going to be a close game for sure. But Sean Merriman is certain that the Chargers get a win because he's emotionally invested in Chargers as well. I just don't know how you bet against Tom Brady and Bill Belichick in any game, any game. I will. That's what I'm saying. I also am taking the Chargers.

I've been saying they're different. I don't know who's going to win the game, but four and a half, five points. I will. That's what I'm saying. I also am taking the Chargers. I've been saying they're different. I don't know who's going to win the game, but four and a half, five points is a lot. I've been saying that the Patriots are different this year. They've been different since Bill Belichick won the September Wolves game. They lose to the Eagles with a backup quarterback. The Eagles

had a backup quarterback in. Patriots lose. Nobody thought that was going to happen. Nobody thought that was going to happen. I bet on the Eagles because their team meeting was lit, but nobody thought that was going to happen. Nobody thought that was going to happen. I mean, I bet on the Eagles because their team meeting was lit, but nobody thought it was going to happen actually. Everything seems to have been different after that moment, but Patriots are the Patriots for a reason. And it's snowing. People haven't gotten into the fact that it's going to be

three to five inches of snow. Phillip Rivers. Three to five inches of snow? That's not going to be on the ground, though. Phillip Rivers, his last five inches. That's not going to be on the ground though. Phillip Rivers, his last 10 games in cold weather with, uh, you know,

the effects of rain or snow, however you want to put it. Precipitation. Precipitation. 11 interceptions, five fumbles, 10 games. Yeah,

but they got old cuzzy that was in the Uber. Yeah, they got Melvin Gordon. Uh, he sat out today. He's a little banged up. Well, he's got that knee.

He had that hyperextension of the knee there in the game. A couple of Toradol shots, though. A couple of Uber rides around Foxborough. He's right back in that game the next day. I just love the San Diego defense. Los Angeles. I'll never call them that. Never?

Never. What if they go to San Antonio? Then maybe I'll change. Okay. San Antonio. It feels different about change. Okay. San Antonio. It feels different about them. I think I said a couple weeks ago, they've just been riding under the radar all year, stacking wins together, dominant on the road, didn't lose on the road.

And then you look at the weapons they have, like Mike Williams, even like Tyrell Williams and Travis Benjamin as their third and fourth receivers. It's going to be tough to cover all those guys. Hunter Henry back after a long engine reserve. Stephen A. Smith right there. Hunter Henry. Got to look out for him. Pat, does this hold any weight to you? You were in the locker rooms. That's why I'm asking

you. Then I want to get the room. This isn't your fucking shot. I understand. I understand. But listen, Brady, always getting that award. Help me out, Connor. First one in, last one to leave in March, and then they come around to the OTAs or the... He's gone this whole year,

man. And I mean... Yeah, he wasn't even there. He was on a yacht. That was his thing, though. He said after this season, he wanted to just kind of block out all the bullshit because people, you know, they always talk about Brady. When the season's over, he goes right back to the lab. You know, Brady's also a father. He wanted to spend

a little time with his wife and kids. The machine of Tom Brady is different. I wasn't around Peyton after he had his kids, really, once his kids became actual humans. I assume that changed him a little bit. But he didn't have kids because he was fucking Peyton Manning. He was a machine. That's why that didn't happen.

I honestly believe everything just seems to be different with the Patriots. Could old man Rivers go in there and knock him out? I think he could. I think old man Rivers could get in there and get the win. I'll be excited to see what happens because a lot is riding on it for NFL films. By the way, the Dynasty documentary could be coming out. Is it coming out at the end of this

year or is it coming out at the end of next year? I think you're going to have to keep waiting. I think four more years, five more years maybe. Four more years? Brady wants to play until 45. In his head, that is his goal. Is Belichick and Brady going to get along for four more years? I want a billion dollars, but it's not how it works.

Brady has five Super Bowl rings. If you had five million, you'd be a little closer. It's not how it works. Just for future reference, five million, nowhere near a billion. I thought they said the first million is the toughest. Those people are lying. Something's different in New England, man. I do.

I believe it. Something is off in New England. It's always been like this. Tough team. Very tough. We got the Rams and who? So the night game on Saturday is Cowboys at Rams. So there we go.

The Rams have been suspect ever since Cooper Cupp has been gone. Ever since old Cooper Cupp's been gone, and the Cowboys, since getting Amari Cooper, have been hot. So if you're riding trends, I think you've got to go with the Cowboys in the trend. I took the points. The thing that scares me is when L.A. faced Chicago, and Chicago has a very similar D-line to Dallas,

and fucking Chicago gave L.A. a lot of fucking dollars. Well, it was also very cold, right? It was also very cold. I mean, that is a real thing. That Phillip Rivers stat you just dropped in there is a real thing because, I mean, your hand's on the ball. Hands on the ball. Still, Goff does not like pressure at all.

He does not handle pressure well at all. I've seen that in that Red Bull video he was with that Juco kid. Yep. And they had a little pressure up the gun, and he was just throwing picks into Jucos. I remember that. He folds. I'm not saying the Cowboys can win because I don't know if they're off. It's so weird.

The Rams defense has been terrible all season but can they turn it on? Can they turn it on now? Cowboys in the NFC Championship by the way. I couldn't imagine what Jerry Jones is going to do. Couldn't even imagine. Jerry Jones bought a $250 million super yacht after winning the wild card weekend. You win a divisional round going to the NFC Championship?

Okay, now we're talking. Saints? Saints-Eagles. The line is now eight. At the Dome. Down there in the Dome. That's the last one of the weekend, too. That might be tough for Philadelphia.

Yeah, that one's the one that I don't know. I think this is where Foles' magic runs out. I think the Saints are just going to run all over. Yeah, because Foles' magic is going to run into Bree's destiny. Think about what the Bree's destiny ran into last year in cold-ass Minnesota when they were winning, winning, winning, and then the internet broke after one play with Stephon Diggs, who now has commercials and a huge paycheck.

That was one of the most magical moments in NFL history. Our YouTube page got flagged for that video alone, just a picture of it. That's a big moment in the NFL's history. Drew Brees is going to have vengeance on that whole situation. Yeah, I'm in agreement. Hey, you mentioned Destiny. A quick thing about back to the Patriots real quick. We're past it.

Bama and the Patriots have never won the title in the same year. Just saying. Every other year is how they go. Okay, maybe when we're talking about that. I try. I went to, but then I missed it. I'm going to go against the grain on the Eagles. I just think it's in the cards, man. I think it's in the cards. You like the ski masks. They're playing very well. They beat Chicago

and a lot of people didn't think that was possible. Two picks, though, against the New Orleans Saints is probably 10 points. That's probably 10 points you're giving up there. Maybe, but toward the end of the season, the Saints did not look as good in the last third of the season as they did. That's a team of the Vi-Week will help.

Yeah, yeah. I think so because they got to get back on track. What if they didn't get back on track? What if Drew Brees is out there doing Jimmy John's commercials in just another week just like last year with the Minneapolis Miracle? That's a good point. Wow. I think it's tough to count out Nick Foles.

I do, too. We've got a hilarious conversation coming up for you, too. I'm happy we can do this football talk for you. National Championship, Trevor Lawrence is an animal. I think that guy is going to have a billion dollars. People were saying that that Alabama team could beat an NFL team. People were saying that. People were saying that that Alabama team could beat an NFL team. People were saying that. People were saying that.

Horseshit. Well, people were saying that at one point. Sure. That the Alabama team could beat an NFL team. There's no college team that will beat the worst NFL team. Well, people were saying. We're not. Quite a few people were saying.

People were saying. Quite a few. Yeah. People were saying. Quoted. Quite a few people. People wrote blogs about it. People wrote big, long blogs about it.

But that was not the same Alabama team there. That Clemson team just completely demoralized them. I mean, that Clemson team took everything out of them. Even at D-line, that's unstoppable. He seemed like dejected during that game. That offensive line for Clemson was finishing plays. They look like a bunch of Quentin Nelsons, to be honest, out there. Not a lot of words, a lot of action.

That Trevor Lawrence kid's going to have a billion dollars. And that rookie wide receiver, same goddamn thing. That kid, that freshman wide receiver. He's incredible as well. Incredible. The ACC has got a problem for the next four years, three years at least. There's no one. There's no one.

They played Pitt the championship this year. And by the way, that's hysterical to think about. The UCF should have got at least a hint of if that's who Clemson's playing in the championship. Not saying that Pitt wasn't good, but I mean, the SEC has mother of every week. That is the battle, right? They're like, UCF doesn't have to go into murderer's row like the SEC does, like Alabama does. Clemson, same thing, though. But I think the turning of the tide that happened there on Monday night

was in recruiting. Oh, yeah. They actually read an article. They got comments from all the top recruits in the country, and they were all switching to Clemson. Well, because they look like a cooler team. Their jerseys are cooler. And Dabo looks a lot more fun to play for than fucking Saban.

Seems like the players like Dabo more. Did I see Jalen Hurts try to jump in the transfer pool? He's transferring? They obviously don't know where yet, but he announced it. Think about that. West Virginia. You sit there all year and back a guy up after what happened last year.

You lose in the championship and now you're going to transfer. I don't think he wanted to sit again. I think he wanted to graduate, too. So I think he wanted to graduate from Alabama, which I think he did. That was kind of the spin is that he was going to be a good teammate. He was going to graduate. Now that he's got his degree, he can transfer without having to sit out,

go play your final year because they're obviously not going to pull Tua. Tua, by the way, I think he was more hurt than people were thinking. I think that affected him a lot more than just in his mobility. I think it was affecting a lot of things. The animals up front for Clemson, though. They're incredible. The best one was sitting, too. Kirk Herbstreit actually sent both of his kids, I think,

are going to Clemson. And that's huge recruiting, by the way, having the voice of college football basically say, yeah, my kids are preferred walk-ons at Clemson because he enjoyed what's going on down there. I think Clemson's going to be tough to top both in recruiting and on the field. But West Virginia's got a new coach too. Let's not get crazy.

West Virginia's sneaking in there. You think it's a rematch? No, I don't know. I don't know if Alabama makes it next year. Honestly, I think turning of the tide is a possible thing. That Alabama team rides on swag and dominating people, which they do on a regular basis. And they dominated that Clemson team early.

One pick six, but they looked like they were dominating early. And when Clemson didn't back down at all, it almost looked like it took the wind out of the Sabans' tide. Georgia's still young. Ohio State's going to be back with a new quarterback. Georgia. Oregon, too. Oregon next year.

Yeah, West Virginia, too. Guys, guys. By the way. Book it. Book it. It's Alabama-Clemson next year for the national championship. Two is coming back ticked off. They're 1-2 to start the season.

Who's won? Clemson? Clemson's right. Got to be because of Trevor Lawrence. Oh, you guys also forgot Texas is back. Texas is back. Texas is back. Not quite back to tap on the shoulders of Clemson and Ballard. No, no, yeah, they're not national champions.

They got Dicker to kicker there. I mean, they could really do some work, of course, but they got to run through the Mountaineers. Ain't no chance of winning the Big 12 with West Virginia in there. No chance. Hey, good effort for Saban. Not a great effort for the brand, though. It was a freshman kicker. Wow. It effort for Saban. Not a great effort for the brand, though. It was a freshman kicker.

Wow. It's a tough spot. That Clemson kicker, they were talking about him. He's been in three national championship games, I think, and he has good percentage. That's incredible to me. That's a very impressive kicker. I don't know how strong his leg is.

I have no idea. I haven't done research. Fair catches on kickoffs, by the way, the most disgusting thing I've ever seen in my entire life. It is. I don't know how you do it. Clemson did it the entire game. They didn't even think about returning.

They didn't even think about it. They just fair cut it the whole time. That's disgusting. But that Clemson kicker, kicking is all in between the ears. All of it. So whenever you're a freshman kicker or a college kicker in general, and every week you're in a huge game, every week you're in a packed stadium, every week you're on primetime television.

That is a huge obstacle that kickers and punters that go to bumfuck university somewhere don't have to experience. Thomas Morstead went to SMU. When we played in the Senior Bowl, that was the biggest crowd he'd ever played in front of in his life. And that was basically a high school stadium. Now, granted, he's turned into an incredible incredible punter

in the nfl best in the nfl but at that moment when i saw him going into the stadium like that's a real thing in some of these kids alabama kicker clemson's kicker these kickers in the sec they're playing in front of a hundred thousand people on primetime television as a young 18 year old that could be a big fucking ordeal to get over especially in a profession or a uh a craft that is 100 mental so that's not to ask your question yeah when i was reading up uh when i was deciding who i was going to bet on for that game the only real sizable disparity that i could find was that everybody was saying how bad Alabama's special teams were. If you're them, I mean, they're the team. How does a head coach allow that to happen?

Alabama kickers for the last decade have been so bad. Did you hear what I just said, though? Alabama's kickers are also on primetime television every single game in front of hundreds of thousands with national championships on the line every single time they kick. That's a huge mental hurdle. They have to just find a guy who can get in there and just be the guy. You know what I mean?

It's somebody, you either got it or you don't. You can't tell in kicking camps, I don't think. I don't think you can tell whether or not how somebody's going to respond in front of 10 million people, 15 million people until it happens. You know, I think that is what. So it all goes on the kicker. Because they were expanding out. They're just not productive at all. Well all goes jk scott was their punter

he was a good punter i mean there's punt team was good there for a while it's just when you get no specialist positions it's very much like can they handle it in between the ears stuff speaking of in between the ears buccaneers Bruce Arians, head coach there. Bruce Arians is now head coach at Tampa. Cliff Kingsbury is now the coach for the Arizona Cardinals. To talk about that is a man calling us from the phone. Well, yeah, anytime you call, you'll be on the phone. Sounds like there's a baby in the background.

If he could tell that thing to be quiet, even though she's beautiful, absolutely beautiful. Arizona Cardinals starting center going into next year with a new coach cliff kingsbury who's damn near the same age as him his former coach is now with the buccaneers former teammate of mine aq shipley aq what are your thoughts on all the coaching carousel it's kind of crazy right i mean it is it is wild did you watching all these moves it's like it's it's kind of crazy right i mean it is it is wild just watching all these moves it's like it's it's the same crew just kind of circling amongst the league did you expect did you expect bruce aarons to come back to coaching whenever he retired i i definitely did not when he retired but then halfway through this season when he made that comment about Cleveland, I said, he's coming back.

No question about it. I thought it was for sure going to be Cleveland, but one of his disciples ends up in Cleveland, which is great for Freddie. Freddie Kitchens used to be a coach at the Arizona Cardinals as well under the Bruce Arians umbrella. So you think Freddie Kitchens will do well in Cleveland? He seems to have a great rapport with Baker Mayfield. The Checkdown put out a video from the sideline of baker and freddie like kind of

fucking with each other and baker says that guy that guy's an idiot and like laughs i think he and baker have a great relationship do you think that's going to be a good hire for uh the cleveland bronze well freddie freddie's that guy he's one of us i. I mean, he's always joking around. He's always got jokes. He says some of the most outrageous, outlandish things you will ever hear. But that's what makes everybody love him. That's what makes Freddie who he is, and the players love him. He's always got a great rapport for him. He's got his guy Drew Stanton in his back pocket.

Drew Stanton's a weapon over there, huh? Drew Stanton's going to be a weapon over there. Yeah, he's a coach. That's what he is. He's a coach. He's just a very talented coach because you take everything he sees on the field plus the offense that he's been in with Freddie

for the last six years, plus the rapport he has with Freddie, plus the relationship he has, and just being able to kind of help him out and kind of lean on him for advice i think fantastic okay so freddie kitchens is going to do well with the cleveland browns i could see the dog pound by the way if this doesn't go well it's the same thing that happened with the colts is we don't need a players coach in there we don't need somebody that gets along with the players we need somebody that's going to be a disciplinarian i think it's a a new time. I understand where you're coming from.

I think if the players like you, they're probably going to play better for you, depending on things. I don't know. Bruce Arians in Tampa Bay. Why do you think that's a good fit, or do you not think that's a good fit for him? They've got a ton of talent.

If he can keep Deshaun Jackson happy down there, and they've got a great weapon in Mike Evans. They've got really good tight ends. These are all weapons that Bruce loves to utilize. How about Bruce just sitting at his house down there on the lake in Georgia looking at all the offenses? He's like, I'll come back and coach in Cleveland. You got Jarvis Landry up there?

Yeah, I'll do that. You know what, Tampa Bay, I got that big motherfucker from A&M, Mikey. And Deshaun, I'll take them for sure. Okay, I'll take those two jobs. If you guys want me, you can have me. And that's basically what the fuck happened. That's exactly what happened. I mean, he's got great, he's got, I mean, I think,

and then I heard him on the Rich Eisen show this morning. He's talking, he's like, well, you know, I sat there and everything just kind of fell in place. My whole staff became available. So literally his entire old staff from when he was in Arizona in the very first year here, it's available. And then he adds Clyde Christensen to the mix, which is an unbelievable hire. So he goes back to that group text that he had

from the Arizona Cardinals organization. He's like, all right, ladies and gents, because there is a lady in there, I believe. Are we all ready just to take the show to Tampa or what? And then one person's like, well, we got to add Clyde Christensen in here, the guy who's worked with Peyton Manning forever and Andrew Luck, went down to Miami, a quarterback, another quarterback whisperer,

basically, like Bruce Arians. Like, yep, let's add him to the group text. Let's all pack up and go to fucking Florida. You think that's what happened that's 100 what happened then when they got there they checked out that strip club mons venus and that's where all this stuff went down you're an idiot there's a rumor now that todd bowles might live leave bruce and for chicago's open dc position oh no just i just i just i just read on twitter the finalized contract for todd bull oh he did buccaneers is done yeah now let's talk about you let's talk about you cliff kingsbury formerly of texas tech in usc 150 000 buyout of usc hilarious steal by uh southern california

there uh he's your new coach. Have you learned anything about him? Have you looked into him at all? How do you feel? I know he puts up points. I don't know much. He's a college guy. He was a college guy the entire time. I don't know what his network is. I did see that he's trying to bring his offensive

coordinator and was the old offensive coordinator in West Virginia, I read. Oh, Jake Spavital. That's it. That's the name. I guess he's a pretty cool coordinator and was was the old offensive coordinator in west virginia i read oh jake spavital that's it that's that's the name i guess he's a pretty cool guy quarterback young little he was with geno smith in college and uh will greer and now he's moved over to houston i don't know he went somewhere no we went to like texas state i think is the head coach is what i read yeah so i'll be excited to see how that goes. Now, just a little further thought here.

My first game I got to call was Texas Tech versus Baylor. Texas Tech, Cliff Kingsbury just gets hired to the Arizona Cardinals. I don't want to say this show gives a real bump, but one got fired after the game. Now he's the head coach of an NFL team. So what I'm intrigued by is I got text messages from AQ on this goddamn Alabama Clemson game because AQ was one of the most critical humans on those people that were saying that Alabama could be an NFL team. He was very critical on the people that were saying that

on the internet. He was very, very critical. And then he kind of kept like, oh, you love this Alabama team. You love this Alabama team. I think he even sent me like a handjob motion to this alabama team and then it was a blow job pretty sure it was a blow job you get it that trevor lawrence people were about to be the richest man in america of all time he's going to be the richest guy of all time he's going to have head and shoulders he's going to have the highest nfl contract possible he's gonna have every deal in the world and he's probably gonna do very well i saw people saying like and i said this on the show the ncaa is gonna figure out how to get him or the nfl is gonna figure out how to get him out of the ncaa after next year there's gonna be some way they're gonna work some rules somehow that kid's going to

the nfl next year a bunch of people were tweeting he's not ready for the nfl right now sam donald's 12 years old playing in the fucking nfl that guy is a he is an nfl quarterback playing for clemson right now that kid's unbelievable aq yeah he's pretty awesome i mean i i loved watching him play i mean the two i mean you don't you don't really watch clemson until they get to the final four every year and it's like oh my god these guys are really good. Agreed. I mean, I love watching audience channel every morning.

I love watching Dan Patrick. I love watching Rich Eisen. When I watch them, they're already talking about, like, oh, 2020, 2021. Like, who's going to tank in 2020, 2021 to get this guy? The Patriots are going to be 4-12 in 2021. Like, the fact that, like, we're already talking about that. 2020, 2021 to get this guy. The Patriots are going to be 4-12 in 2021. The fact that we're already talking about that. What if the Patriots get fucking Trevor Lawrence? What if what happened with Luck and Peyton

happens with Tom Brady and Trevor Lawrence? If you could guarantee me that he's going to be really good, I would take a 1-15 season on my favorite team to get him the next year. Yup. He looks like he's going to be the guy. He looks like two of them. Because he's going to be really good, I would take a 1-15 season on my favorite team to get him the next year. Yup. He looks like he's going to be the guy. He looks like two of the real guys. Because he's a giraffe.

He's a giraffe like Peyton was, but he's an athlete too. He runs like fucking Cam Newton does. I saw his high school thing. He was hitting spin moves on people and diving in the fucking end zone. Just to piggyback off, I think that was Diggs that said that. It was, buddy. The crap shoot, I think that was Diggs that said that. It was, buddy. The crapshoot, I think somebody was like, if you could guarantee me that he's going to be that good.

That's the beauty of the crapshoot of this whole NFL draft. It's like, this guy's been impressing us. We're talking about him two years before he's even draft eligible, and he could possibly go there and not be good at all at the next level. That's what's mind-blowing about this whole NFL. I don't think that's possible. But it is, in the back of everybody's mind, you have to at least account for that.

That is a possibility. He was dropping balls in the bucket. It wasn't just, I don't think I watched him enough. I was so impressed with two all year. I was like, yeah, two is the guy. Two is the guy. Two is the guy. Tua's the guy. Tua's the guy. Trevor Lawrence, by the way, not even a Heisman finalist.

How does that – He didn't start the year. They pulled Cousy and then he comes in and then that guy transferred out, right? And then there was a bunch of talk about bashing Dabo for this. And then like two games in, this kid just takes off. He got hurt at one point, didn't he, too? I don't know if he was concussed or what. Hold on.

And then he beat a couple of mud pies in the ACC, and he goes out and he does what he does with Notre Dame. Well, I'm not sold on. And then plays against a mediocre Alabama defense. Mediocre. The beautiful thing is that everybody after this last game. Thank you. Hold on. This isn't Fox Sports.

I know it isn't, but you're crowding this guy. We don't need a guy to say dumb things. We don't need a guy. You're crowding this kid. You're crowding this kid. What are you talking about? Quentin Nelson was considered the greatest defensive player that we have. They were hyping him up as if he was going to be a game wrecker at D-tackle.

You're saying the Alabama defense isn't a good defense? Maybe the last two games. I'm not saying they're not good, but they're just not Alabama like they used to be. People were talking about this. I'm just saying you're crowning this kid $100 billion in all races. $100 billion. $100 million maybe. Just hold on a second.

Just hold on a second. I don't think so. That's the Fox Sports. No, it isn't. You're saying he dropped passes in the bucket. I'll watch a game film with you. He didn't. Guys made great catches.

The end zone catch, the touchdown in the end zone, the guy had to go backwards to get it. The one-handed catch on the sideline. Back shoulder you're talking about. Oh, that's on purpose. Aaron Rodgers does it. It's on purpose. No, it wasn't. It was a pretty shitty ball on the sideline that the receiver made an incredible catch on. He's going to be good,

but let's not throw it. He's probably throwing it where only his receiver could catch it. He wanted to throw it away. I mean, let's not act like the guy that made Justin. Write your next fucking blog, Pat. Write your next fucking blog. I think there's a chance he makes Pro Bowl his rookie year. Let's go. I'm saying it. I think he'll be a rookie. There's always a chance, yeah.

I think he'll be a Pro Bowler his rookie year. There is also a chance that he could not do well in the NFL. Sam Bradford, he could get hurt. He could be one of those. Anything could happen. The fact that the NCAA is holding him hostage for two more years, though, is complete bullshit. We all agree with that.

You excited to get to work with the Cardinals? Boss, how's that knee? Knee's good, man. Knee's really good. We're getting there. We got another couple months. You know what the great part is, though? New head coach equals get to get to work faster two weeks

early, man. Pumped, baby. Woo! I completely forgot about that. New head coach equals get to get to work faster two weeks early man pumped baby whoa i completely forgot about that new head coach you get to go to otas you get to go to training camp early you you get to you get to you don't have to make you you get to yeah third uh third time in my career that i get to get to get a jump start on the season, baby. All right, have a good one. Tell the family we said hello. All right, see you guys. See you.

My mother told me she could see my scalp, so I figured I'd take some pills. That's the time, my friend. Exactly. You know, 66% of men lose their hair by the age of 30. Steven doesn't have great hair, too. Runs in the family. You know, they say that, but... It's mother's dad. No, it's not.

Because there's a lot of brothers. One's bald as fuck and one has a full mane. Different mother, baby. Okay. No, you're right. My brother, or my dad has a brother that's, I think twin brother, that's bald. Yeah, my dad does as well.

Wait, wait, wait, back up. My brother's not bald. You think your dad's a twin? No, I think it's his twin brother that's bald. Does he have a twin, or do you not know that? He has a twin, yeah. He does. Yeah, wait. Back up. My brother's not bald. You think your dad's a twin? No, I think it's his twin brother that's bald. Does he have a twin, or do you not know that? He has a twin. He does. Yeah, his name's Owen.

I just found that out. Good news, brother. Wait, what? Good news for you. That means I'm not going to do it. Trust me. You got twins whenever you're- Skip a generation.

I'm not buying that. I'm not buying that math, all right? I'm just saying, if it's in your family, it's in your family. You got twins. Sorry. Cat's out of the bag. I don't. I just want one kid.

I know, but you're getting two. I want one kid. I'm going to spoil him. He's probably going to do drugs, kill himself. One kicks, one holds. One kicks, one holds. That'd be cool. Special teams.

Oh, that would be awesome. One punter, one kicker. We would be awesome. One punter, one kicker? Yeah. Ha! We would be awesome. Oh, God. That's for the brand. That would be so fucking cool. We need one more for a long snapper real quick. Just showing up at the goddamn kicking camps.

Who wants to take on the little McAfees? Punters over here, kickers over here. That would be interesting. Yeah, it would. Little Midas. God. Doctor, I thought. And Doctor. would Little Midas God Doctor, I thought And Doctor

Atlas Midas and Doctor Atlas was brought in because Midas was given to the dumbest dog in history So maybe it will be a little Atlas and Doctor Doctor will be the punter, I think Because it's more of a Nope, Doctor would be the kicker They seem to be mental

Oh, what a surgical punt Nice, I like that The kicker should be more surgical. Yeah, the kicker's more surgical. More a little mental fragile. The punter a little more of an athlete. Atlas. Yeah, he'll be on the Titan games too.

Get on the same page. He'll be on the Titan games. Has Rock's games come out yet? Yeah, yeah. I watched it. Titan? It's just not great. It's an interesting setup. It really is.

It's going to crush overseas. He's going to make a billion dollars off of it again because it's big, it's large, there's a lot of it. I don't mind it, actually. I didn't mind it. It was too easy to become a Titan, though. In my eyes, it was too easy to become a Titan. You win one face-off challenge, basically, then you win the mountain, you're

a Titan. So it was like a bing-bang. It wasn't like one Titan throughout the whole season. It was like numerous Titans. So it was like a Bing Bang. It wasn't like one titan throughout the whole season. It was like numerous titans. So it's not Mount Midori, are you? Exactly. It's not like Global Guts. Global Guts Mountain. No.

They need more obstacles, too. Like on American Gladiators, you weren't going to see the same thing in any given week. I feel like they got like six events, and they're just going to recycle them over and over and over and over. Ellen DeGeneres' Game of Games. Her is great. She continues to create these new games. There's so many of them. I don't know how.

She must have, unless it's hers, because it is Ellen's Game of Games. She's got a good brain. She's got a staff of 20 right now. If it's only 20 people thinking of that, very impressed. Just for future reference. They have new games every... I watch that show and I assume that show crushes over

in Asia. I bet you they're stealing all the games from Asia. Yeah, they do have Slippy Stairs coming on this season. Yeah, the Slippy Stairs coming on this season. They need to bring back the wall. The ice stairs? We're going to squeeze through the hole in the wall? The silhouette? Oh, that was a good one. I've told the story. Yeah, it's good one good one i've told the story yeah it's the best game i've told the story me on me being the guinea

pig basically for my group of friends batch of mushrooms because they all had finals and i didn't have anything so i ate it it was a new batch you know we never got it from this particular creepy man before and I had nothing going on for a couple weeks so I took them you know my roommates weren't home mm-hmm wasn't all my roommates involved but my roommates weren't home and by yourself you took them put them on a I think I put them on a peanut butter and jelly yeah peanut butter and jelly still tasted terrible only way put them on a peanut butter and jelly ate them and then what happened after that was one of the most entertaining evenings of my entire life i go out into the living room and i sit down on our couch and i'm going through the the clicker you know with the remote and i see hole in the wall and it was a marathon

okay so it's a game show network hole in the wall hole in the wall hole in the wall hole in the wall i'd never seen this show i was intrigued by it and literally it was like as i hit the okay select button on hole in the wall like the first episode started the mushroom started it was like just this beautiful synchrocy of it and me. And I sat there for four hours. And I was crying. They came back three and a half hours into it. And I am belly laughing in the living room because they had this big old lady, big, big, big lady,

in this bright silver costume. And the hole in the wall was this tiny little thin sliver. This lady had zero chance of winning. And the host is like, like hoping that she would do it. And she turns and does like the get thin thing. And the wall just breaks around. And the silly,

if you've ever seen a hole in a wall, a hole would literally come on a wall towards you and you would have to met. Yup. You would have to match it. And, uh, she had no shot she knew it she tried the producers that set up that wall are assholes and i'm just crying laughing she broke the wall yeah and my roommates come walking in and they're like what's wrong and i'm like a good batch. Good batch. Been watching Hole in the Wall for three and a half hours and they sat down next to me for the last episode that I

watched there and they weren't enjoying it as much as I was, but I think it would do well on that. It disappeared. The game disappeared. The show disappeared. Just like minute to win it, gone. These ones, I fall in love with them and then they're gone, but that was an incredible evening. I'll never forget my first night with Hole in the Wall while man i didn't leave i didn't even leave the

house like normally that's like a adventure thing you know whenever you do the mushrooms i didn't even leave my i didn't believe i was crying laughing for three and a half hours i've never i didn't like my abs were sore the next day and i was like people don't think mushrooms are ped like i think i'm getting fucking ripped up. I'm getting ripped up. I feel like goddamn Mario hitting that mushroom. I feel like I'm a monster. I love that hole in the wall. Ellen Game of Games does well.

That Titan Games will do huge overseas, I think, because it's big, it's dramatic, there's strength. There's some emotional moments. He doesn't host it, though. He just stands there with a couple comments here and there. Really? They got that Liam guy who was on Sunday Night Football. The Q.

Yeah. And another guy. I don't know the other guy. The other guy goes apeshit during it. I like his energy. He's good. But he came out of nowhere. That guy, I've never heard of that guy.

Yeah, I don't know what his name is either. So my issue with this is I've had to fly across the country 45 times shaking hands for people to get one little job because nobody knows who I am. This guy I've never heard fly across the country 45 times shaking hands for people to get one little job because nobody knows who I am this guy I've never heard of gets the titan games it's gotta be one of rocks boys yeah I don't think so this guy does not look like he's one of the rocks boys he looks like a he looks like a tiny uh an image of zito basically really yeah but he's got energy he's good he is good he's good but in my head I like, I've never heard of this guy. How is this guy? I got to fly 4,000 miles to potentially maybe get on a television.

This guy gets thrusted into the Rocks Titan Games. Good question. Out of nowhere. That's a good question. Out of nowhere. It's going to do well, though. Alex Mendez. He's good.

What's he done, Z? He's a golden boy. That's like his nickname. It's that on there. So he's a boxer? He's a boxer. Oh, he's a boxer? Yeah, it says. And he talks that well?

Alex Golden Boy Mendez. Really? That's fucking crazy. He was good. I'm telling you, he's good on there. But as a personal, from a personal standpoint, when I was watching, I was just like, how the fuck's this guy get this job? Never heard of him ever.

Bang. Titan kids. Going to be overseas. Probably worldwide with The Rock in no time i'm like this i've had to fucking just stroke everybody to get a shot no shit yeah you know what i mean is that the guy yeah yeah so he's like a like a video game announcer yeah he's not a boxer no he has nothing but his nickname is golden boy his nickname is golden he's fucking good though not my Golden Boy.

Yeah, Golden Boy is an actual boxer. Yeah, and Dana White hates him, by the way. Dana White hates that guy. That get-up episode I saw. Yeah, he got full of shit. Dana White, by the way, gives no fucks anymore. In his press conferences, he'll say, fuck you. ESPN will be live on there, and he's like, I give a fuck.

I'm like, yo, Dana White's just letting her eat up. He got paid. He's become. He did get paid. And then what? They forced him to keep working? Is that what it is? He said he loves it.

That's why he continues to do it. Yeah, that's why he wanted to stay on and also get paid. That's what he does. Conor McGregor, I guess, has reached out to the pub. Yes. Which is the wildest thing in the world. He has a pub shirt going his way right now. In my eyes, it feels like this is a potential catfish situation where somebody's getting some free merch from Zito

by saying that they're potentially linked to the Champ Champ in Dublin, Ireland. We need a background check. But it was an exchange, right? There was an exchange of goods. You guys got some proper 12. Oh, so Conor McGregor had to have sent it if it's proper 12 coming. Well, I'm saying proper 12 costs more than the merch does. So they're missing.

You could go to a store and get a bottle of it and then ship it. How much is a bottle of proper 12? $24.99. Oh, right. Yeah. It had to be McGregor. Nobody's going to do that. You guys might be right, but we're not taking any chances at the pub.

If Conor McGregor might want a pub shirt, we're sending that fucking shirt. Also, I think they might be actually, if it is a cafe situation they're making out because i believe we sent connor a sleeveless hoodie for him to train in yeah i believe those are more than 24.99 yeah and there's not a lot of them by the way they're back on the site actually they're probably gone we these sleeveless hoodies are hilarious they go fast they do well and also there's they're not easy to find so whenever we find us uh supply of them, there's normally not a lot of them. A, because I have to have a couple of them. Obviously, it's my everyday clothes.

It is actually everyday. It's my uniform. It's my uniform. But they go out quick because they're hard to find. Good sleeveless hoodies are hard to find. I do love the new ones. Thank you. The Cuzzy one.

I love that. The Cuzzy brand is a good one. The bomber jacket is literally my favorite jacket I own, too. The American jacket. And they have those still. You do wear the new ones. Thank you. The Cuzzy one. I love that. I mean, the Cuzzy brand is a good one. The bomber jacket is literally my favorite jacket I own, too. The American jacket. And they have those still. You do wear that every day. You look good in it, too. I love it.

Well, he is the model there from all the magazines. Yeah. Totally. Slender. I'll take it. Slender frame, yeah. I will take it. Yeah?

Do you know that this asshole's trying to gain weight during this contest? Foxy? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Let's go. Let's put them pounds on. He had the nerve to say that to me. Well, over winter break, you're not your normal groove, so I lost weight, and I'm like, is something wrong with me?

I was legitimately scared. I thought something was wrong with me. Oh, you thought maybe potentially Ebola. Something. Yeah. It's back, by the way. The pub's not the cleanest. Well, let's be honest.

The pub's not the cleanest. No, they very easily could have had a disease in the pub. Yeah, you could have picked something up. Right now or in the past. You got a bunch of straight cats running around. And those cats now have the bubonic plague. What'd you say? The cats now have the bubonic plague. That's not good. That's over there in Wyoming, though.

The bubonic plague's dead. No, no, no. It's back. Four cats have got it in Wyoming. Pub Cat got his shots. It's only a matter of time before those cats... There is zero chance that Pub Cat has shots. He lives in a pot. I have seen the injections. What do you mean you've seen the injections? The marks.

Those are fucking scurvy scars. The ears clipped too. Scurvy. Plus once McGregor sponsors the pub then we can pay for all of Pub Cat's medical bills. Have the neighbors given you guys Pub Cat full time? No we've kind of given them pub cat full time. Well, this bubonic plague, probably a good idea, because pub cat is definitely a street

cat, hood cat, and potentially would never know if he had a bubonic plague or not, and I think he'd be able to survive. He cleans himself all the time. Yeah, and plus, I feel like we could see it in his eyes if he really had the bubonic plague. Four cats in Wyoming have the bubonic plague? Health officials have confirmed. So how do you get the bubonic plague? Like poop? Like rats, normally. Are they brothers and sisters? Theic plague? Health officials have confirmed. So how do you get the bubonic plague? Like poop?

Like rats normally. Are they brothers and sisters? The four cats? Are they related? I don't know. So if these four cats have it, that means there's some rats somewhere that have it again. Henry Hill's over there.

These cats ate the fucking rats. Street cats. They got the bubonic plague. Next thing you know, humans start getting it again. Well, luckily there's no humans in Wyoming, so we should be okay. The bubonic plague was the big one. Yeah. That was the one that got everybody.

King Henry. King Henry started that. And we have a cure for it, right? They made a cure. They had to. Because that's why they stored the bubonic plague, so they could create a cure. I thought you guys were saying bubonic plague. We were?

Yeah, that's exactly what we were saying. No, B-O-B. No, no. That's what you were going to say. B-U-B. B-U- cure. I thought you guys were saying bubonic plague. We were? Yeah, that's exactly what we were saying. No, B-O-B. No, no. B-U-B. Yeah, by the way, every single class, history class, in the history of America, in America, has taught people about the bubonic plague. So the fact that

you had a bubonic plague back then. It was a huge part of our history, right? Tale Two Cities. That's what it's about, right? It killed, like, I don't know. It's in that, yeah.

I'm going to throw out a real digs fact here. 25% of the population. In the world or just America? In the world. Yeah. The Black Plague. Give me a year. Yep, that's the one I'm thinking of.

Yeah, you're thinking of the Black Plague. That took out like a third of the years. What year are we talking? 1400, 1900? What, the Bubonic Plague? The Bubonic Plague is the Black Death. It's the same thing. Yeah, same thing. years. What year are we talking? 1400? 1900? What? The bubonic plague. The bubonic plague is the Black Death. It's the same thing.

Yeah, same thing. What year? This was like the 14th century, I think. Yeah, before America. 3800 BC. The Dark Ages.

BP. Don't know what that is. Just death everywhere, huh? The Late Bronze Age. Are you sure? The Black is estimated to have killed 30 to 60% of Europe's

total population. Good Lord. In total, the plague may have reduced the world population from an estimated 450 million down to 350 million. 100 million people. 14th century. Wow, somebody would have plugged them cats. Europe was basically the world then, too. What has bubonic plague been doing since the 14th fucking century?

Vacation. Waiting. Just waiting. How does this show up here? Just lying in the weeds. Where did the rat find the bubonic? Where did he find the plague? Is this the government?

Because the government had to hold up bubonic plague. Boom. You just nailed it. This is just like Rampage. It got out from some labs. This is Rampage. This is Rampage. It's what always happens.

Speaking of the Titan games, this is what happened. There's going to be a big gorilla running around everywhere now. Well, I think with bubonic plague, there's a chance that a little rat could be a big gorilla. 100 million people died. Shit. Rome wasn't built in a day. That was back when they didn't have technology. They probably could do it now with the technology we have.

But they didn't have a lot of medicine back in the 1400s. Yeah, we kind of stopped just laying dead bodies in the street and shitting in the street. How many times do the builders always say, like, oh, I hate that saying? I think all the time. Oh, I mean, like, back in the day, in the Roman days. They probably loved it because always say, like, oh, I hate that saying? I think all the time. Oh, I mean, like, back in the day, in the Roman days. They probably loved it,

because it wasn't expected to be done in the day. Because that was their excuse. Oh, so it came from them. Yeah, like, think about what was told to us here when we were building this place. I might have got the Rome wasn't built in a day speech 30 to 40 times. Yeah, they just started saying,

Harlem wasn't built in a day. Yeah, yeah, Rome wasn't built in a day, man. You know, it takes time, a little patience. There's an old Monty Python movie called History of the World. It's different eras of the world's history. And the one where we had the bubonic plague, the guy would just walk to the middle of the village. He was ringing a bell.

He's like, bring out your dead. And people would just bring out bodies. And they would pick him up and put him in a wagon. Oh, yeah, yeah. No, that was Holy Grail. And they brought out the one guy. Oh, was it? He goes, I'm not dead yet. And they clubbed him up and put him in a wagon. Oh, yeah, yeah, no, that was Holy Grail. And they brought out the one guy. Oh, was it? He goes, I'm not dead yet.

And they clubbed him in the head. By the way, the world's up to 7.7 billion people. What do you think's the max here? Like, you think the fire marshal comes to Earth. Says, yo, what do you think the max is? There's a lot of green, man. Probably 8.59. Because every time you fly to New York City,

that's what the future has always been explained as, basically. This is what the future is going to be. It's going to be everybody stacked on top of each other because we all fuck like rabbits, and there's so many kids coming, and the population, and the use, and all that stuff. They always say the future is going to look like New York City, but then as soon as you fly anywhere,

there's a lot of land out there. Well, there's a lot of land out there. The biggest danger of overpopulation is, you know how when you fly on an airplane, you have to report your weight because the plane can only support so much weight to keep flight? We get too many fucking people on the planet, the planet is going to just drop

and fall farther from the sun. Is that why the water levels are rising? That never gets talked about. Because the land is sinking down. It's causing the oceans to come up. Genius. And it's our body heat that's melting.

I don't think anyone's said that before and that's genius. Whenever you put dirt into a pot, you pat it down. And it goes down. Whenever you put grass out there, you can push it down and it goes down. Whenever you step in mud, it goes down. Whatever you put grass out there, you can push it down, and it goes down. Whatever you step in mud, it goes down. When you step on loose dirt, it goes down.

I would say that 7.7 billion people could potentially be pushing down Earth. Absolutely. Water rising. These are the things scientists aren't telling us, and we know for ourselves. We proved this scientific theory ourselves at the colts playoffs party where there was too many people in one small room and you know how hot it was hot our body heat is starting to melt the polar ice warming and it's causing global warming so not only are we much body we're pushing it down now we're heating up what's coming up there's a big flaw in here the world is, so there's people below and they're pushing us up. No, no.

We're getting smaller. Because gravity pulls everybody to the middle. Before you know it, we're going to be football shaped. Does this guy know anything about anything? No, he doesn't. What we're saying is it's like this now. It's going to go like this. You see? It's going to end up like a disc. Yeah, it's going to get flatter. Then the flat earth people are going to be right.

In one particular way, it'll still be this way, though. That's what we're saying. In one particular way. It'll still be this way, though. Yeah. That's what we're saying. We need a plague. We do. Yeah, of course. We've got a couple of them.

Too many people. We might need two plagues. At least. Probably one plague per country. I mean, these floods are getting out of control. Maybe people... Should we think of a cool name for a plague? I think we should be building the ramps that somehow are off of ground

so we stop pushing ground down. You know what I mean? If everyone had hover shoes. That's what I'm talking about. Good point. Hover boards. Plague McAfee. We need more hover.

No, I don't want to be associated with plague. We just need more. Page wall. We just need more hover. Mr. Bubonic's family is taking care of him. Or if everyone on a diet,

everyone needs to go on a diet. I don't know if it's fixable. Everybody's worried about the cows farting and stuff in the ozone,

which is true. We talk about Elon Musk always puncturing holes in the ozone, which isn't talked about enough that that could potentially be

why everything's... There's leaks everywhere. He's been tweeting about aliens a lot lately. Yeah, I saw that Neil A. thing he did. isn't talked about enough that that could potentially be why everything's... There's leaks everywhere. He's been tweeting about aliens a lot lately. Yeah, I saw that Neil A. thing he did. Because we talked about it, he realized, hey, it's out. Might as well fucking own it. Just like Groning, by the way.

Have you heard anything from him since that video has been released? Nope. Real close. Nothing. We're on to him. How about Elon Musk? What does he start tweeting out?

Neil A., first guy to land on the moon. Alien. Alien backwards. Get out of here, Elon First guy to land on the moon. Alien. Alien backwards. Get out of here, Elon. We're not calling you nollies. You're a fucking alien. I got a name for it. The Melodorus Plague. Why is that? It just means bad smell. It's also

pronounced malodorous. Mine's different, though. Not the Melodorus. Mine sounds cooler. Jesus Christ. Mine sounds cooler. It's got a different play. Jesus Christ. Yours sounds cooler. What if you just take the English language

and start making the words sound cooler in Zito's eyes? Just in time. There you go. There's one word. You're good. Slippy. Slippery. You're good.

You can't just take the Yenzer language. That's literally what you just did. That's what you're doing right there. You're just taking the Yenzer language. That's literally what you just did. That's what you're doing right there. You're just taking the Yenzer language. Yeah, I'm all out of it. My all of Doris. How come that's never talked about? I don't know.

It's because they want worldwide panic. Correct. That's why. You know what I mean? People will start thinking, oh, well, I'll just start doing whatever I want. Anarchy. It'll be chaos. People will be loitering, looting.

Not loitering. Yeah, they'll be loitering, looting. Not loitering. Yeah, there'd be loitering. There'd be a lot of standing around. There'd be a lot of standing around. I'm not going to do anything. I'm just going to stand here. You can't make me do anything. By the way, maybe we should have no walk zones.

You know? Okay, don't walk on this piece of land for when this goes underwater. We can come here. Come earth zones. Oh, pretty smart. That is smart. That's how plateaus probably formed. Because they weren't walking there.

The buffalo would never go on the plateau. Actually, the Grand Canyon used to just be a giant walking path. That's what it was. It was a trail. Prove us wrong. And then we walked down and it went down to water. Prove us wrong. Prove us wrong. That's all we're saying.

I would like you to find some scientist to prove us wrong. Somebody do it. They can all we're saying. Prove it. That's what you come to this show for. I would like you to find some scientist to prove us wrong. Huge mystery. Somebody do it. They can't argue with me. Two huge mysteries on this show today. That's what the evidence we're getting. Not even Bill Nye.

What's the first one? Mason Ramsey. How he got to do what he did. That's my biggest mystery. That might be upcoming. We don't know where this is going. You know what I mean? Yeah, you're not sure.

And then there's Grand Canyon one. We don't know if the Mason Ramsey information has been debuted on this show yet. Yeah. Nice, Gorm. We're not sure about the order. Nice one, Gorm. Come or leave. I will.

I'll leave. Speaking of, you will want to hear this Mason Ramsey conversation coming up in the middle of this upcoming conversation. What we really did there, I've never been more proud maybe in this office. What a band-aid you just put on.

Yeah, yeah. Yeah, we did it. We tied it together, by the way. We realized that Gorman potentially fucked up something we recorded before.

Gorman has become the guy in the office that loves to have the conversations that should be on the microphone, off the microphone. A lot of people have told him to stop talking. I can't hide my emotion.

When emotions are, I'm not going to bottle it and then crack it back open. That's how it works. Be a professional, Gorms. You're a goddamn plague. So we need a plague. You're the plague. You know what's great about this conversation? Come here, throw everything in the disarray. We get into these ones where we're proving science wrong and stuff like that. You notice who gets real quiet?

Nick? I'm taking it all in. I'm trying to open my point of view You notice who gets real quiet? Nick? I'm taking it all in. I'm trying to open my point of view here. He gets real quiet. Ever since he lost the space ocean debate. I forgot about the space. I can't believe that is still even a thought anywhere. Yeah, he lost. Have you heard this one, Gorman?

No, I'm going to shut up for the rest of the show, though. A lot of people would be thankful. So the scholarly humans on Earth have been brainwashed by these other scholarly people on Earth. That there is, we know more, this is the way they say it. We know more about space than we do the ocean okay i couldn't fathom something being more bullshit than anything in the history of being said ever because space they have no idea when it ends we have no clue there might be oceans in space that we don't know anything

about those oceans no you have your argument is always you flip-flopped like a motherfucker when this came out. You were the biggest proponent of this, and then Pat said one thing, and then you flip-flopped like a motherfucker. Hey, by the way, sometimes all you need is just one little awakening, and it can happen to you too, Nick. You've been on the wrong side of this the entire time. I've been listening. I've been listening to your points.

We came to a gentleman's agreement at one point. That seems to have gone out the window. No, the agreement was this, that although there might be more facts if you were to stack them up about space and about ocean, which I don't even know if that's true, by the way, but I gave that up just for the sake of negotiation because whenever you say we know more about space,

you're implying that you know more about what space is than you know about what ocean, the ocean is. It's like I've been in the motherfucking ocean. There's a place called Ocean Prime right down here where I'm eating its fucking gifts. I ain't never been to a goddamn space prime. Ain't nobody go to space. And space could never end, by the way.

Space could be going forever. It's infinite. The ocean's got a bottom, though. We know that. Yes, we know. What if there's a black hole in space that takes you to the

bottom of the ocean, Gorms? No, there's a black hole in space that takes you to more space. Space and more oceans.

It never ends. There's oceans out there that we've never put a toe in. Nobody has. Nobody. Not even Zito. Zito's put his toe

into an ocean. No idea how hot the water is. No clue. Or cold. Where would you rather go, top of space into it. No idea how hot the water is. No clue. Or cold. Where would you rather go? Top of space or bottom of the ocean? Just as it is.

You can't reach the top of space. You can't. There is no top. How do you know? Because it's infinite. Exactly. Different question, though. I don't want to go to the bottom of the ocean.

It's scary down there. It is scary, but there is life down there. I have a hole in my eardrum, so I don't want to go to either. Don't die. I think it would be cool. We're finding out about every day. Find new stuff every day. In the ocean? it would be. Find new stuff every day. In the ocean?

In the ocean. Find new stuff every single day. Same with space. That's true. No, we're not. But it's always like, oh, that jellyfish is this color when you get to this certain level. No, no, no, no. You're simplifying.

Anyways, we know more about the goddamn ocean than we do space because we don't even know where space ends. We know where the ocean ends. That argument's dumb. It's not mapped. It is. They got the darkest of blue at the bottom to show how deep it is. That's an estimate. Light blue, dark blue.

That's not official. I've seen a dark documentary. We know where the core is. We know where the bottom of the ocean is, okay? Yeah, we've been trying to get closer to it with the more humans we've been pushing down the ground only james cameron he's the only one trying everyone else gave up no one cares he's in space by the way james cameron's in fucking pandora making another avatar can't wait for that what if that's true by the way what if what if avatar

pandora real thing based on a true story yeah what if that's a we don't know we don't know because we know more about the ocean than we do space. I'll tell you what, that movie better be good. People have been waiting a long time for it.

It will be. James Cameron made an ocean movie and he made a space movie and his space movie was fiction. The ocean movie based on a true story.

That's the best argument I've ever heard. How about that? Not bad. And the state rests. No liberties in that ocean movie, huh? No. No.

Are you kidding? They show the bottom of the ocean in that movie? Yeah. Yeah, yeah. It's pitch black. Look, here's a picture of the bottom of the fucking ocean. Yeah, can't see it. Exactly.

You want to see what the ceiling of the space world is? Same thing. Tap it. We don't know. What do you mean we don't know? We don't know. We got telescopes. There's stars up there, too.

It's not just pitch black. Yeah, we don't know. We don't know. We don't know. The stars? Those are suns, buddy. You guys are just answering. We call them stars here.

We know where planets are. The sun is a star. We know where stars are, right? We know where stars are. We look up there. We see the North Star. We see this. We see planets.

I don't think the same can be said about ocean. Oh, you ain't never seen a fucking dolphin? You ain't never seen a whale jump out of the fucking water? What are you talking about? Dude, there's volcanoes every day in as much water as we got out in the world. And earthquakes that we don't even know about. We do know about. You don't think there's earthquakes and volcanoes on planets we don't know about?

What are you talking about? Why don't you go fuck yourself? You have no idea. There's aliens living. Elon Musk's tribe is from the inside of Mars, and we don't even fucking know that yet because we're always on the outside. First of all, I don't want to fight anyone here.

I'm just having a conversation. You are. I'm not. I'm having a conversation. I'll just say this. I'm not siding with Nick on this thing, but I'm going to say this. Nick's not even siding with them.

I know, but I'm going to say, the unknown in space and the unknown in oceans is pretty stinking close. Well, tell me this, though. If you dropped a weight in the middle of the water, is it going to hit the bottom? No way. Pat, there's places, ocean depth, that nothing can get to. Not even a mechanical thing, it blows up.

It's so deep down there. Nothing can get to the bottom of the ocean. What bigger? I've tried to explain this to him before. He doesn't believe it. There's an end there though. There isn't. We don't know that. We don't know if there's an end to the ocean. Over 400 miles belief. They still can't

go underneath. The mechanical, they cannot get down there. You're saying it's a black hole down there. I'm saying, yeah, but it's got to end on the other side if the world is round. That's what I was saying. There could be a black hole in space where you go through. There is an ending at some point, though. If you're a flat earther, if you're a round earther, by the way, flat earther.

Shut up. Round earther, though. There is a bottom because you could see the roundness of the earth. So there is a bottom somewhere. There is a radius to the earth. There is a bottom somewhere. There has to be. Literally has to be. But with the earth. So there is a bottom somewhere. There is a radius to the earth. There is a bottom somewhere. In a diameter. There has to be.

Literally has to be. But with this space, there ain't no end. It's just an empty sky is what you're saying. Well, we don't know. We don't know. Elon Musk came from there.

It's infinite. They have to make hypotheses about it. Yeah. Stephen Dawkins. Hawkins. You get it. He made a whole living on just guessing what's going on up there.

Just making shit up. Just making stuff up. Oh, there's black holes. By the way, dead. Oh, God. Yeah. For God's sakes. You should hear this Mason Ramsey conspiracy.

Terrible. We just walked over to the gas station. It's cold out there. I was going to ask. Hey, it is cold out there. He told me, he said in Nashville, four hours south of here, drive, no bite, not this cold. Never felt a bite in Nashville. It's always like eight degrees difference.

You know what I realized in his statement, though? Driving to Nashville is only four hours. It took you guys two hours to fly on that little plane? Something like that, yeah. You don't remember the specific time. Going there, we got back a little quicker. Yeah, much quicker. Tailwind.

Resistance airwaves. Tailwind, headwind. Gorman then said Todd and Nick were in a small plane to Nashville, and I said you had to meet Mason Ramsey's people. And he said, what do you mean by that? What happened? Well, what happened was we were told that there was a chance to get a little kid rocket ship, Mason Ramsey, who was once Walmart yodeling.

Yodeling. The T-shirt. Yep. Mason Ramsey. Got it. We were told that there was a chance to get him on for an interview whenever we had our live show. Sure.

And we were excited about that. I was like, okay. Little Yoda boy was putting out some heaters there early. We were a big fan of that. We had to go kiss the ring, basically. We had to send representatives from our show to this Nashville birthday party for him to kiss the ring, and if they gave us the go-ahead, we would get him as a guest.

We fly down there. Not we. Todd flies down there. Nick flies down there in a Honda Civic plane. Right, yeah. They go down there. Two hours to take to fly down there in a four-hour drive, by the way. That flies down there. Nick flies down there in a Honda Civic plane. They go down there. Two hours to take to fly down there in a four-hour drive, by the way. So that's not great.

Lands down there. Goes, experiences the thing. Meets everybody. Kisses all the rings. Grandma wanted to fly home with Todd. Todd charmed her pants right off. What else is new? Guess what?

What happened? What happened? Great show with the kid? We haven't heard a fucking thing from him. He was supposed to be in town, and then he didn't show up to his own concert. Yeah, he canceled the show. No, he just didn't show up. Yeah, chicken pox.

Kids get those. But shit. But yeah, so I'm done with him. I'm done with Mason. Yeah, ground him. Ground his little ass. He has been. He's been disciplined, suspended.

Yodel that. I'm worried about that kid, by the way. What do you mean? He's going to have a big 2019. He tweeted been. He's been discipline suspended. I'm worried about that kid, by the way. What do you mean? He's got a big 2019. He tweeted it. Like Macaulay. I don't think he tweeted it. Somebody tweeted it.

He was on Ellen. He didn't look happy in those eyes. It was very early, too, to be at that stage. You're saying Macaulay worried. I think he's getting. I think he had a hell of a push here early and i think he kind of lost might have lost his his happiness i hope not i hope not i think he's officially been pulled from school because when we talked to him their plan was not to enroll him in school this year and he would just have to do the celebrity kid schooling where there's a travel

teacher or whatever that you get three or four hours a day with so i wonder like that's when i think you that's the true test you know how is that going to affect that kid because they don't get to be a little kid anymore yeah because when we saw him he definitely still had that little kid innocence and like enjoy and everything but i haven't seen him since he was on ellen just a couple weeks ago he said he didn't look happy so i'm not gonna play with my friends anymore i wonder because like educationally you can keep up with the cyber schooling, but socially. Right.

What about the kid? He's not just a cash cow. Maybe he's wise to Ellen's tactics, because when we did talk to the grandpa, he told us when he was originally on Ellen, she tried to sign him to an exclusive contract so that he was strictly doing appearances and reporting and everything to her. Classic Ellen. Maybe he was wise to her game. Grandpa was like, oh, I wasn't going to lay him a piece of paper.

If my kid wants to go play the bait and tackle shop, I'm going to let him go play the bait and tackle shop. See, and that's why I'm not worried about him. He's not an L.A. star, young star. He's a national, he's a country young star. So you think maybe the happiness was gone because he wasn't happy being there. Because his grandpa was like, remember with this lady who's very nice, put you on TV, good show, by the way, we don't want to go to.

Remember, she wanted you just through an exclusive, right? Maybe he wasn't as free and carefree then. Can I just throw this in? Sure. The kid is not Beyonce or Ed Sheeran. You are wrong. No, he's a yodel. You are wrong.

Yodel has about a two-week. Have you heard his new stuff? Have you heard any of his heaters, bro? I got news for you. I know how it sounds. Yeah. No, that's not how it sounds. No.

I heard it live. It was phenomenal. He got with Florida Georgia Line, started making heaters. Come on. I'm just worried that as a kid. He ain't selling out places is all I'm saying. Wrong! Yeah, for two weeks he's got 15 minutes of fame.

Not an empty seat in the place. Yeah. It's a little brat. For two weeks, he's got 15 minutes of fame. Not an empty seat in the place. Yeah, it's a lyric. That's a lyric that he wrote to his own song. That kid does have something magical. We got to watch him and two of his friends from the Little Nashville Opry. They have a kids part of that for future stars or people that have a lot of promise. Yeah, Disney Club of Nashville. They were on a balcony in Nashville at this house.

I'm assuming the record label owns or leased for this thing. And they're just on a balcony entertaining the entire neighborhood. Three little kids. Frickin' spitting up there. With Todd McComas. Tarzan, I think, was out there. There was representatives from Worldstar there. Everybody from around the internet had to come fly and kiss the ring.

And he put on a show. It was cool to watch. Lady got headbutted by a camel. He had the saber. And he put on a show. It was cool to watch. Lady got headbutted by a camel. Ever heard of it? Ever seen that, Gorms? Ever heard of it? Guys, you're attacking me. The kid doesn't have a career.

I'm just telling you right now. It's a 15 minutes of fame deal. How many people are going out? You know what? I really want to go listen to a great night of yodeling. People aren't doing it. Little girls? Mm-hmm.

Little girls and little boys love the Yodel King. Give the little brat a time out. Yeah, but Gorms, you don't understand that you take one of his songs and you also, you know, you throw in a little techno behind it and you got our generation

and we're listening to it too. I was like... Who's our generation? Yours. Me and Fox, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Fox, we'll call it Fox. Fox, are you and Connor

in the same generation? Yeah, and hey, I was Mason Ramsey for Halloween. Don't forget that. Yeah, we'll call him Fox. Fox, are you and Connor in the same generation? Yeah, and hey, I was Mason Ramsey for Halloween. Don't forget that. Yeah, he was a Halloween costume. He was wearing Halloween costumes. I'm just upset because you guys got sniffed by a yodeler. Well.

I mean, it's not Beyonce. We were as well. I mean, we put a lot into it. I mean, I feel like we played the game. I thought when I got frisky with the grandma. Did you get anywhere? Oh, is that what happened? Yeah, grandpa wouldn't let him up. Did you get a little? No. No? I think grandpa would have, by the way. He thought when I got frisky with the grandma. Did you get anywhere? Oh, is that what happened? Yeah, grandpa wouldn't let him up.

Did you get a little? No. I think grandpa would have, by the way. He liked you, too. I think he would have. Grandma or grandpa would have came if it were not for him. Fuck my life. Whoa.

What the fuck was that? I don't know. That would have happened. Yodo Boy's grandpa? That's what you just... What was the accent you just used? I just went to a dark place. Yeah.

That's very not Zito, what just happened. Ernest? Ernest was the grandfather. Ernest and Francis, you're right. The plan was they wanted to... They were like, when we come, we'll all go and we'll get the best home cooking your city has to offer. And I'm like, all right.

I don't know where that is, but we will find it. Probably Country Kitchen, if I can guess. Yep, yep, that's what I was thinking in my mind. Take him in to Country Kitchen down here in Indiana. We had it all set up. We were going to play basketball with him. We even made a video with him. Nick made a video with Yoda Boy.

Nick made a video with Yoda Boy. Probably the highlight of your career so far, I assume. Yeah. Nick? I don't know how to answer that. Find that plane. This is unbelievable. Find the plane. This is unbelievable. Find the plane home.

I flew the goddamn plane. This all started because I was cold outside. It's Gorman. Gorman is the spark plug to all the bad shit that's happening out here. Wow. To you or to everybody? Everybody. He comes in here.

He stirs up drama. He creates controversy. Explain that. Ever since you've been here, everything's been going south. It's going to be taken care of. People are infighting. People are at each other's throats. It's you.

You're at the center of it all. Hold on, though. I do believe that Gorman came at a time, though, where potential anger and other things could be coming into play. But I won't lie. This old guy is definitely coming here and shaking things up a little bit. Rattled the house a little bit. Should we tell him?

Should we tell him? Yeah, fuck it. Let's tell him. Okay, yeah. I don't know what this is, by the way. Just for future reference, I do not want to get... Remember, we signed him to a contract.

He didn't show up for 27 days after that. So the let's and we thing, I don't know what this is. I can't take... I got hired to make you better here. You're a miserable, resentful fuck. People don't like you.

They started to really not like you. They're like, Gorman, take this guy under your wing or let him take you under his wing. Just make Nick's life and performance better. Pat, I think I've done a pretty good job last month. Well, I think there are a lot of people that would just say that Nick was talented before.

Nick's army hates me, by the way. Anybody that's behind Nick. Does Nick have an army? Oh, they hate me. Anybody. I mean, anybody who's following Nick. He was a public figure. Before you got here, he was a public figure.

He was doing quite well. He was a public figure. Got on ESPN. Yeah, he did. Had things going my way. Then I broke. Gorman shows up, break my collarbone, got pink eye. Oh, yeah.

And then he got sick? Yeah. It was after he signed, but he didn't show up during that time. It was whenever he was in his. Just his mere presence. Wow. You're going to get better. And you know, maybe my performance has been slacking,

but you know who hasn't been hating on my performance lately? Say it. I don't care. Old Double D, Dolores Delvecchia. She's quite pleased with the performance. I'm trying to help him. I swear I'm trying to help the guy. Quite pleased.

I really am. Italian sausage, big thing. Woman's a saint, boys. Woman's a saint. I agree. I'm a big fan of that lady. I've been proud of this office. Me too.

Jesus. A lot has been going on. This weight loss situation has become magical it really has become magical it's not even close to them well i just want to let you guys know that for the people that are in the contest this from viewing it you guys are living a terrible life it's so much terrible it's devastating watching you guys be so miserable on a daily hate to be digs right now just I just hate it. I don't mind it.

You're going to fucking start again? No, I'm just saying what you're going through on this. When I was here earlier, I saw how you bucketed food every other hour. So now it's nothing. You've got something coming for you. He showed up at plumping season too, right? So he has literally seen you guys at your polar opposites when it comes to food digestion. You raised such a good point in the PMI Live Lounge interview.

At the end there, when you were giving closing remarks, it was that we went straight into this from three weeks for me of eating as much as I can of everything. I was like, this is everything I've always wanted to eat, and I just would eat twice as much as normal. And then, boom, it's just stop and only eat this stuff and only eat this much of it. We made things, in one aspect, way harder on our side. Mentally. Mentally. Physically.

Physically, we did the right thing. It's made you lose a lot of weight. You almost died, but it's made everybody lose a lot of weight you almost died, but it's made everybody lose a lot of weight early, the MyBookie people were actually saying the sandbagging of the plumping season, which by the way we're here to win if there's a little gamesmanship

there's a little gamesmanship but now we're at the point where mentally you have to get over that hurdle because we're early in this thing we are early in this thing we are early in this 20 days left it's a good though a lot of time i'm glad we're i am overall i'm glad we're doing it because we still like are just at the beginning phase of this thing of pat mcafee inc you know what i mean we're going to experience some some struggles along the way trying to get to where

we're going and this is a good little like oh yeah but remember when i went through the weight oh so you're gonna lean on this yeah this is an experience you think this is a character builder big turn yes you're gonna fall back on this moment when times are tough you only get stronger remember when i was hungry all the time when you need to grab a little bit of grit you'd be like oh i remember how to do that i remember when i did it before whenever we're setting up a show yeah and um in some part of the world and the stage has to be set within 20 minutes doors open you'd be like you know what there was that one time whenever four people in his office were starving themselves to death yeah for 9999.99 for tax purposes and we'll all lean on

that team was getting a little too fat and happy. Yeah, really we were. I'll tell you what. We very much were. It's become a very incredible thing because you all, and I said this on the PMI Live Lounge, you guys all are visually, optically thinner. Thank you.

All of you. No question. Which is also good for the small business. Yeah. Also good for our business. Everybody can't be around. We can have a couple round ones. Every once in a while, we'll exchange those roles.

But it does feel as if you guys have all visually gotten skinnier. And I think maybe that should be an upper in your – because it's a lot of misery, I think. It feels like – but I think you guys should see, like, oh, we're getting a lot done, too. You know what I mean? You guys are getting a lot done. I'm proud of you guys. It is nice. I haven't hit it yet.

I don't know if you guys have hit it yet. There is a point in the contest where you do look in the mirror, and you're like, oh, fuck. Like, that's a real difference. You're starting to look good. It hasn't hit me yet, and that is a motivating factor.

When it gets there, then you'll feel better. I saw it in the picture we took with Jace. When I looked at that picture you sent, I was like, oh, holy shit. I look significantly different than I did a week and a half ago. For those that are wondering, Jace was a guy from Ohio who won the Grote, who one of the winners of the Grote, the greatest raffle of all time. He chose to job shadow Nick Miraldo.

He did that yesterday. Well, two days ago now when this comes out, just learned under Nick Miraldo's incredible umbrella of knowledge for an entire work day. Was very nice. And then I got sent his mug shot immediately after. There's no background checks. Yeah, we didn't vet very carefully. He won.

And he bet the pens last night, too. Depends when? Oh, yeah. Okay, I like that a lot. Let's go with goal, by the way. Face off. It's been fun times over night, too. Depends when? Oh, yeah. Okay, I like that a lot. Let's go with goal, by the way. Face off. It's been fun times over here, man. It's been very fun times.

Only going to get better. I agree. Let's not forget about Tim, either. I know he's not in the room. Oh, yeah. He's fucking locked in, though. Out of all of you guys, even Zito included, he's my guy. Tim is fucking locked in.

He's listening to seminars up there on how to run the foundation. It's unbelievable. And he just disappears for five hours in a seminar with his headphones on. And then he gets out and he's like, oh, I guess I should eat. He said he didn't even want to eat yesterday. That's what he said. He said he didn't even want to eat yesterday. Did you hear yesterday when Matron was telling us all the tips? He was like, oh, he told you guys our plan.

He told us his plan from the get-go. So there's this thing called MCT oil or MTC oil. MCT. MCT oil. I just started taking it two days ago. It's just been making me just shit my pants, basically. So I've been doing the old...

What is it? The owner of... It's like a mixture between coconut oil and another oil. It's supposed to be the healthiest of all the oils. So it basically is supposed to double your keto rate, your ketosis. It's supposed to double that, and it's supposed to do all these things. Make you feel better? No, no.

You drink it, but it is very oily when you put it in. Like, you put it in your water, you shake it in. Yeah, it's like an olive oil. If you drink it out of a cup, it's going to go on your lips. Thick, huh? It's thick. Yeah, you got really good. Have you noticed a difference?

Well, yeah, I've just been shitting my pants. I've just been next level running through me. It comes in, it goes out. So I'm excited to see what it's been doing for me. But have you guys been doing anything extraordinary? Any other supplements going in the body? I haven't introduced anything artificial into i'm taking into my body yet okay yeah i'm taking this greens drink i don't know it's supposed to be it's supposed to replace

vegetables or something like that v8 no i don't know i don't know i take it it's my shit is fucking bright green now every single time is v8 healthy for you i don't think so i think that's a lot of sugar too sodium too much salt salt and sugars. Way too much salt. So is it good or not good? I used to, at one point, V8 Splash is absolutely delicious. I used to mix vodka with it, wake up with the worst hangovers because it's very sugary. Really? I didn't know that. I thought V8

was supposed to be healthy. Like, if you're getting healthy, you drink V8. Not V8 Splash. That's for the kids. How much more do you... It's healthy relative to drinking Pepsi every day. I did a last challenge, and it would just fill you up, but I never actually lost weight off it. How much weight do you think you'll lose in this whole thing? 52 pounds.

That was before we started. Now that we're in it, you are still at 52 pounds? Yeah. How come? Half a chicken breast a day. That's it. Yeah, but everybody's doing it. He did that last time.

He literally starved himself last time. I ate way more last time. Really? This time, I'm eating a lot less. Even like last time we were losing losing we were weighing every day right yeah so i was losing a pound maybe a pound and a half every day i can't really remember the math works out to 32 pounds would be a pound a day yeah here's the thing though it's tough when we did this last last time when you guys did it last time, you would tell us these crazy stories about how you didn't eat for four days at a time and all that stuff. So I don't know if I can believe a fucking word you're saying right now.

You obviously can't. Not with Zito. From what you said last time, there's no possible way you could eat less unless you lied the first time. Or you're lying now. He literally started the contest on a lie saying he would weigh in at 275 and weigh in at 260. I lost weight for you guys. Yeah, but he was mentally, in his head saying he would weigh in at 275 and weigh in at 260. I lost weight for you guys. Yeah, but he was mentally, in his head, he was going to be 275. Just like mentally when he puts on his athletic clothes, he's an athlete.

I will say that all athletic clothes are very, very dusty. We're going to have to break them all down. They haven't fit since the last go. Exactly. Proud of you, Z. Proud of all of the people competing. $9,999.99 for tax purposes. It's not something to laugh at no it's a lot of motivation not at all i'm excited for you guys and you know what is really cool is that people

actually that listen and follow our stuff are are a lot of them are losing weight at the same time that's a fucking good feeling too think. Think about the thought, okay? I already know. Of somebody sitting at home, turning on their internets, the Twitter, for the weigh-in day. They see you weighing in initially. Right. And they see you almost have kidney failure. Uh-huh.

They see you very plump. Very plump. Can you put my arms all the way down? You get on the scale. Three days later, they see you lose 14 pounds. I'm thinking there's somebody that's like, 14 pounds in three days? Because the thought of losing weight seems to be so enormous. How hard it is, which it is, by the way.

It's very difficult to do these things. But people can make quick changes to themselves if they really want to do it. I think you guys are a role model for that. Never in my life, like there's been a lot of wild things that's happened since I've started this job. We golfed with John Daly at his home course.

That's pretty cool. Slept at his house. Pretty cool. Wilder than that. He drinks a gallon of chocolate milk a day. Never in my life did I think I'd be motivating humans to lose weight. That by far is the wildest thing that's ever happened. How does it make you feel?

I don't know. Good, I guess. All right. I would see it as good as your inspiration. Yeah, I think it's good. Yeah, it's good. It's good. I want to thank them Because it helps me

Not fucking stray You know what I mean If I think about cheating For a second I'm like It's not fair to all these fuckers There's a lot of people Betting money on you guys

Yeah There is a lot of people Betting money on you guys You know how you I'm betting money on you guys I had a favorite Initial weigh in happens Who is it

I stay Stay on the favorite. Just mouth it to me. There's a camera. Oh. Wait, when did those get there? Six months ago. We've tried to upgrade them a lot.

We can never do it. For some reason, some reason. But then after the first weigh-in, I placed another bet. I kind of hedged a bet, right? I'm like, okay, one of these two. Now I'm starting to almost – by the end of this thing, I'm going to be betting on all four of you at some point, and I think that is really good competition.

I think you guys are really – it's neck and neck right now. I don't know who's going to lose what. I honestly don't know. I don't know if Connor's helping Todd or not. Oh, I mean, first of all, Todd just brought up the fact that we're saving our supplements for later in the competition. What type of drugs are you going to get on? Anything big meth or anything like that?

Nothing we can talk about. Are you guys going to be cooking meth? I can't confer more than nine. Anything. I'll just say this. I won't rule anything out because my will to fucking win is very strong. Well, my bookie said that Todd was going to lose five and a half pounds. He took it as a personal shot. And he said, I'm going to lose five and a half pounds, and he took that as a personal shot.

And he said, I'm going to lose at least six because fuck them is what he said. Todd lost half his teeth and is picking his scabs, but damn it does he look good. Do you know where that Chase guy lives nowadays? Hey, Chase, I need another batch of meth. I will hold your family hostage. Great story. Hey, Pat, who do you think? And I want to go, because there's so many people that are involved in the weight loss challenge.

Who's the worst manager of these guys who are trying to lose weight? It's by far, it's Ty. Because my dad even said in the interview on PMI Live Lounge, he said, this is a lonely race for me. And I think Ty had no shot. No matter who my dad's manager was, had no shot. My dad has openly said this is a battle between him and either himself or his roommate, which is my mother, because she has the sweet tooth. So she brings it.

But my mom, losing weight as well. So it's now just him versus himself. But I do believe Ty and Tim might be the most separated team. With that being said, Diggs is giving credit to a guy who doesn't even work in his office for his weight loss. He didn't even say a thing about his manager, Nick. He just ate a bucket of chicken wings in front of him. Which Diggs has said that when he's laying in his bed, I want chicken wings at night. That's his favorite thing. You guys, he came over want chicken wings at night. That's his favorite thing.

You guys. He came over and he wafted. That's how he motivated. I wafted. I also had Todd over there drooling over him, too, and Tim. Tim could smell them from a mile away. I'm in everyone's head. How were those?

They were pretty good? Delicious. Yeah, they look good. They look delicious. Straight from Buffalo. Again, Gorm's trying to stir up drama here, trying to create tension. That's what he does.

I would like to eat wings, too. I am also on a diet with you guys. You are. You are. to eat wings, too. I am also on a diet with you guys. You are. You are. I am not weighing in, but I am on a diet with you guys. And it is hard, man. Losing weight is a difficult thing, but I think watching you guys has made me be like,

oh, okay, if I just do what these guys have done for a couple of days, I can lose it. Those fucking idiots can do it. Yeah, if Zito and Diggs can pull this off, I think I can pull it off. I think that's what a lot of people are thinking. But I think it's taken a lot of mental strength by you guys. Do you think there's going to be prop bets

of how fast the weight could come back? I think there has to be on the other side. I mean, what you did was almost more miraculous than the 32 pounds. You gained 48 pounds in a month and a half. And that is one of the most impressive weight features or feats that has ever happened, maybe in the history and a half. And that is one of the most impressive weight features or feats that has ever happened, maybe in the history of humans existing.

At the beginning of this, I was like, I'm going to keep it off this time. Seven days in, not a fucking chance I keep it off. Todd, all I want to do is eat. That's all I want to do. It is hard. You going back big? Or maybe I think maybe for 10 days after I'll eat

and then I'll try to go back. This is exactly what I needed to, because every year Pat asks us what's your New Year This is exactly what I needed to, because every year, Pat asks us, what's your New Year's resolution? Mine's always to get in the shape, get in the shape, get in the shape.

You needed this. I needed this. This is the perfect way to begin getting in shape. For one, I was so fucking fat and unproportionately fat. It all goes to my gut.

My mobility was so limited and it goes to my shoulders and gut. That's where I get everything. Put a hammy doing stand-up. Yeah. Blew your back out putting on your pants. Yeah. You look disgusting.

You did. I didn't even want to go into a gym. I didn't want to because I'm like, yeah, people are going to be like, look at that guy trying to, what's he doing? But now I feel a lot more agile. I'm a lot more flexible than I was. Oh, you're a ninja. Yeah.

Maybe I can get back in there. Zito, 261 start. What's the perfect after this thing is all said and done that you want to stay at? Back to 261. Dude, he's going to go to 280. You're dealing with a different creature here with Zito. Yeah. He put on 48 pounds after losing 32 pounds.

I mean, it was a net red in the whole thing. I think this time I'm keeping it off. Just for the beach body and then St. Paddy's body. Of course. You know what really sucks too? We touched on it a little bit during the live lounge, but I literally was a skinny kid in school, right? It gave me a complex, right?

So when I graduated, I was 138 pounds. But I lived in the weight room to even be that. Like I was supposed to be skinny, skinny. That's the way I was born. So the football team, I was not on the football team, but I lifted with the football team. At first people were like, why is he in? He's not even on the football team.

And the football coach was like, he'll fucking work harder than you. Why don't you work as hard as he does? And I just lived that way so I could have some muscle mass on me you know what i mean that's why i wrestled this way all that was about because i didn't want to be the skinny little puny kid my entire life and it took me until like 33 years old to get like man weight on me and so i have a fear like i lift the weight it was always a big deal for me and now like i i do have this thing where i'm like i don't want to look skinny again you know i may have to for this if this is a deeper i mean the gamblers need to know this type of information going in that todd doesn't want to be tiny his entire life don't because i think you as a in life as a human that doesn't enjoy the feeling of being full, and that's wild, by the way.

You said that the other day, and I was just like, wow. I think that's an advantage when it comes to the fitness thing, but you being scared to look frail is an interesting thing for the last couple days of this contest. I'll be excited to see what happens. It is, because I always am like, oh, you should go in there and do some bench. You should go in there and do some curls.

You should fucking go in there and do some tries. What a meathead, by the way. Just because I do. I don't like not looking like I don't have some muscle. I mean, it's not like I'm a bodybuilder or anything. That's what I said from the start is I thought you were going to lose weight early, but then I think you're going to slow down because, A, you can't live with yourself looking skinny, apparently.

We didn't know that until just now, yeah. But, B, I just thought you were just old and just wouldn't be able to shed it that easily. If I have to, I will go into prisoner of war mode. And I will look like I have been in some little box for two years. Hey, I think Zito will be in prisoner of war mode here for the last week. He was taking tips from Matreon, which was telling him to get in a 125-degree bathtub. Don't do this, by the way. Matreon told Zito, get in a 125 125 degree bathtub up into your chin for 25 minutes.

And then when you get out, have people there with 15 towels and wrap you up as soon as you get out of there, then go lay in bed for 15 minutes, then get back into the 120 new water back into the 125 degree. He said you could rip 15 to 20 pounds off you in one day with that. It's called the what? The hot water. A hot cut. Hot water cut. Hot water cut.

I asked him, I was like, can you just jump in a hot tub? He was like, no, no, that's too cold. He said, that's like 104 or something. You need to be like 120. I was like, what, do I boil water and then throw it in there? He was like, yeah. I was like, what? I said, there's no way you can get into a tub at 120, 125 degrees.

No way. Not without teabagging at first. That's me, but I'm just saying, which, by the way, is painful. I've done it. But I'm just saying, I mean, 125, you're at the burn unit. Yeah. I don't think it's safe to get into 125 degrees. I don't think so either.

Especially not for 25 minutes. By the way, Gorman eyeballs every bathtub and teabags it. It's his thing. That's what I do. That's what Nick was referring to there, if you hadn't heard. He's a weird dude. I mean, we talked about it earlier in this conversation. He's just a weird guy. He's a weird guy. I'm a weird guy. Eccentric. I'm a weird guy. You teabag a bathtub. You ever soaked your nuts?

All right. Until you have, don't start chirping. Okay? That's all I'm saying. I will promise you. I will promise you that I have never hovered above a bathtub. Oh, yeah, drop them in. Knee problems. I've had knee problems. There's no way I'm doing a half squat.

Plop, plop, fizz, fizz, buddy. Well, he better sound like it's a dip. You've got to dip into it. It takes a big bathtub. It's a squat. Yeah, it was a squat. It was a squat. You don't put your feet up?

No, you go catcher stance. What the fuck did your feet up? No, you go catcher stance. What the fuck did you think he was doing? You go catcher stance. What do you think, I'm a gymnast? I thought he was doing the pommel horse. You thought he was doing the dips? He was on the iron horse. Yeah, I thought he was doing the pommel horse.

He was dipping in. You think Corms. He was so athletic that he could put his arms on the side of the tub. With his feet in the air. I'm calling sliders and fastballs. The whole time. Dip them in, soak them, there you go. You got one

leg forward, one leg back. Next hotel I'm at, I'll supply some video footage for you. What is a slider? Four? Five? I thought about trying to catch the catchers giving a signal in my baseball game. Just because I know it's very anti-baseball etiquette.

So I wanted to be like. I didn't get a chance. I was so scared. It's on me. What's today's date? The 10th. The 10th. Throwback Thursday.

That's all I got. Hashtag end game. Hashtag end game, hashtag end game. We're obviously pumped for the playoffs this weekend. Send us your predictions on bets. And then if you get anywhere near them right, retweet to send them to us. And if you have the highest, pick five bets from this weekend.
