Incredibly intelligent humans who like to live a little you're alive
but are you living go live and experience it live with seat geek let's get to it
okay so sam won 10 of 13 on her fucking oscar wow not bad literally she was talking to me before
the thing as if she was some like hey by the way i learned this yesterday
while watching the oscars my life is now like she has taken control of the remote since us getting
back from oh no like full time like it's gotten to the point where it's like full time she has
the remote i i it it was it was like a flip of the
switch like as soon as we got engaged as soon as we got back nothing else has really changed yeah
nothing else has changed except for who has the remote and this is a real by the way kind of
becoming a bit of a problem it's a big deal is it possible to make his and her uh remotes well we
can't have two tvs though. That's the issue.
One TV.
But we're in a room.
So, like, for instance, before going to bed, I need TV on.
I need TV on to go to bed.
And it might be something that I'm intrigued by.
Like, I'm not just going to put on shit TV to go to bed by.
Because if I'm still up, I want to at least like what we're doing.
She has taken the remote now on her side and put on things that she wants to watch.
She falls asleep on top of the remote.
So now it's like bad guy here.
What do I do?
Do I wake her ass up and get the remote out from underneath there?
Or do I just sit here watching this bullshit that she picked and she fell asleep two minutes
into and I got to be here for the next at least two hours.
It's a tough situation.
Got to leave the remote in the middle.
Thank you.
Pulling it over is just completely selfish.
I will say, I might have been a little bit too selfish with the remote before we got engaged.
By that, I stay awake all night.
She falls asleep quickly.
That's why I do the same thing.
I'll be in charge of this because you're going to go sleep in five minutes.
I even drop, which I don't normally, normally like aren't you going to bed soon like i kind of feel i kind of feel
bad like wait what are we oh we are watching this are we doing this for real and then she's like
yeah it's it'll be good i and i was like can we just watch like vice like can we just watch vice
because everybody talked about it seems as if it would be a good
movie. How about any of these?
Can we watch those? And she's like, well, I'm
going to want to watch those. And I'm like,
you can right now.
Right now. We can both. We both have the opportunity.
She was like, no, whenever we're
up for a weekend or something. She got the
rock. You got the block.
That's exactly what I got. I did.
And you know what? This is that give you know what this is that give and take
this is that so i would have watched the oscars probably for 15 20 minutes say i wanted to watch
the entire thing for the for all of it and i was like all right let's go but she was beforehand
talking about like i didn't know she was potentially a member of the academy when i got
engaged to her that's how she was talking she
i know who's gonna do this i'm like are you betting on this she was like no i was like
if you are this confident which you do seem i'm not a person that reads into stuff but i read i
like to read humans and if they're confident or not you seem very confident you should bet on it
and she was like where i told her my bookie obviously she goes on there she places 13 bets
and she was eight for eight.
She was on a run, eight for eight early.
And I was like, damn.
I was getting excited.
I'm like, holy shit.
Sam really fucking knows what's going on here.
I think she bet for, oh, I don't know what her first loss was.
I think it might have been Bradley Cooper, Rami.
Might have been her first loss.
I don't remember what it was.
I sent out a tweet, thoughulating him his speech I said his speech was awesome which it was and then I didn't even
realize that he beat Bradley Cooper yeah so I deleted the tweet I'm like no no I
didn't even realize till people started tweeting me like a Bradley should have
won yeah I got into that and I was like I didn't even know he was up for it.
To be honest, I think I was taking a shit
when they were announcing it.
Made me very angry.
I knew nothing about any of that shit there.
That's what I realized,
is I knew nothing about any of that stuff.
That best actress lady might be my new favorite human.
She's awesome.
Hey.
She's funny as fuck.
Olivia Colman.
That was the best speech I've probably ever heard of any of us.
Yep.
All the time.
I think, honestly, best speech I've ever heard heard of any of us. Yep. I think honestly,
best speech I've ever heard.
It might've been the first Oscar speech that wasn't planned.
And she just walked up there and talked from,
there's no way she thought she was going to win.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
God,
God,
that's how she ended.
When she said,
hey kids,
I hope you're watching this because it's never going to happen again.
Her speech was not as good as the hair and makeup speech earlier.
Oh, my God.
Savages, bro.
I could have listened to that speech for another fucking half an hour.
Jane, Jane, yeah.
Also, Oscar.
Starbucks barista this morning.
I could have listened to that fucking train wreck for another hour.
I fucking loved it.
They started arguing.
She's like, no, you got to read that part.
I already read it.
I already said it.
It's in blue.
It's yours.
You're the only guy up here.
Are we okay with the sound mixing awards and stuff like that?
No.
So my issue is this.
They wanted to put that in a commercial break.
Yes, yes, yes.
They wanted to.
Like a week ago, they were like, you know what? We're going to put it up the commercial break. Yes, yes, yes. They wanted to. Like a week ago, they were like,
you know what?
We're going to put it up
in commercial break.
And then there was a backlash
from Hollywood
that was like,
no, no, no.
They all are important,
which I understand
as a person who deals
with editors and sound
and all this stuff,
very much understand
and respect the people
behind the camera.
Correct.
But there's a reason
they are behind the camera because when they get a reason they are behind the camera
because when they get right there in front of it,
they shit all over themselves.
And for me as a viewer, as a person, just like Diggs,
I loved it.
I was like, oh, this is electric.
But everybody in the room had to be like,
this is our fault.
We forced this to happen.
We made these people step directly,
balls deep into their uncomfort area,
speak in front of billionaires
and also in front of millions watching at home.
There had to be that feeling.
And then whenever they just cut off the mic,
those people are still going to town in that microphone
and everybody in the crowd is like, ha, ha.
It was awesome. The Academy were a bunch of savages i absolutely love that i didn't know any of it though honestly
i had no idea i didn't know any of those motherfuckers i only knew like half the movies
probably i like spike lee though yeah he's awesome first oscar yeah he lost his mind samuel jackson
goes up there not Not a great reader.
No, not at all.
I think he had like six pages and was trying to do what I do,
where you read ahead and you know how that works.
It sounded like a history final exam at first,
the way he was going with it.
I wanted him to stop and start over because I'm like,
this is some epic shit that he's fucking up right now because he's trying to go, he's got that nervous energy.
And like you said, he's probably reading one line ahead
and kept fucking up.
Yeah, because that speech,
potentially a speech that is used for a long, long, long time.
I don't want to say the Jimmy V speech,
but something along those lines
where every single network is going to reference.
I'm sure they already did.
But he was bumbling, fumbling, stumbling all over it.
He was not happy that Black Klansman didn't win Best Movie.
He shit on Green Book hard.
Yeah, I think he was more pissed that Green Book won.
Because the internet, the African-American Twitter went to town,
went ham on the Green Book.
White savior, they said.
I didn't get to watch it.
Yeah, it came out right after it.
The family of the black guy yeah it came out like right after it the uh family
of the guy the black guy in it basically was like yeah he he wasn't friends with this guy
like that's complete bullshit like apparently like it's based on a true story they really did like
travel around the south with each other but like they weren't like buddy buddy and they obviously
you know the i mean it just it took a lot of that's the best movie man i, you know, the, I mean, it just, it took a lot of heat. But to say that's the best movie, man.
I know.
You know what sucks for Spike Lee is he lost for Do the Right Thing in the 80s.
He lost Driving Miss Daisy.
And then 20 years later, he loses to a movie that's the opposite of Driving Miss Daisy.
That's a real thing.
But he did get an Oscar, right?
For writing, that's a pretty big deal yeah right
i got into it with people on the internet it's because of i guess they wanted bradley to win
over rami but they were mad that because bradley fucking sang and rami did not yeah but they were
mad that he was lip-syncing which is pretending to sing which acting. It's not the fucking Grammys. It's acting.
I will say this, though.
I think they should have let off with Jack and Ally
strictly because it's a movie award show,
and they actually sang in the movie,
in the actual movie that was up for the award.
Having Queen, which none of them were in the movie,
and then having Adam lambert it was not
great i'm a lambert guy by what do you want from me i'm an adam lambert guy but i just didn't think
that made sense but but how quickly has everybody just moved on from having to have a host for any show last night the oscars was not a good
night for comedy was not a good night for hosts in general because and now it is like on tape where
it's like yeah we just we'll just have a big musical number at the beginning we'll have a
couple people tell some maybe quick jokes an extended presenter basically and then we just
move on throughout the show and it was it was
unbelievable how seamlessly the movie the whole show went without a host this is just like me
watching the aafl where they took off kickoffs where i'm like i'm gonna fucking hate that
because it's gonna crush kickers and i'm watching i'm like that makes sense
that shit makes sense and then this one i'm, I hope to host something one day like that.
And watching, I'm like, oh, getting rid of the host.
I mean, this is not good.
I thought Kevin Hart was going to come back.
I did it in a group text.
I thought that would have been a huge moment if Kevin Hart just walks out there at the beginning.
I mean, that's a massive Oscar moment.
Probably standing ovation from the crowd.
I assume Kevin Hart would have crushed.
But then I start watching it, and then we're just into the awards
and I'm like, oh, they're never going to get a host again.
That's great. This is just fucking great.
Now that I've become a host, they're not going to get fucking hosts ever again.
It did. It shaved like 45 minutes off the
broadcast probably. Yeah, it went under.
That was one of the bets that Sam
lost. Sam, that was
one of the ones she lost. Best Picture
was another one she lost. And I think it was
Best Actor, but there's never going to be a host again for any fucking award show because what happens
next award show that happens the host stumbles and bumbles or just is flat or dry just a little
bit the internet's just going to be like wow the did the oscars not prove that we don't need a
host like that's literally what's going to happen they did tease it though by putting tina fey amy
poehler maya rudolph up front it's like
this is what could have been you know what i mean and they're good i could watch amy poehler and
tina fey all day they're hilarious oh yeah yes big fan big fan really like when they do not the
grammys what's the uh what's the other one emmys yep yeah when they do the emmys before is that
the drinking one uh sorry they've done the Globes before. I very much
enjoy it. See, I don't think I've ever watched
any of those shows, so I'm not sure. I know
their prowess and talent in writing
and acting and stuff. Hosting, though, I've never
seen. But very positive
responses to Latina and
Amy.
Amy.
They crush.
That three,
if it's either Amy
They can go in twos
All three of them
But they
This is the first time
Maya's been tossed in
With them right
Normally it's those two
And then Maya's
With somebody else
But they do a lot
Of shit together
As a threes
Well that's what
I'm saying though
But normally
Maya's with somebody else
Gets brought in
To Tina
With the other
Skinny blonde
Yeah
Yeah
I don't pay attention
But I know that
Strictly from that one
where the guy who was the drummer for Seth
or the guitar player for Seth Meyers' late night show for a little bit.
He's a weird guy.
Fred Armisen.
Fred Armisen and her did that backstage thing with Che and...
Jost.
Jost, yeah.
Yeah, him, where they did the back and forth
where my favorite bit of any award show is when What's-His-Face goes,
you good?
And that was their entire bit.
It was just Fran and Maya going, you good?
And it was like a billion-dollar show.
And these two are being paid to be here.
And he's like, you good?
I love that a lot.
I always enjoy seeing Mike Myers.
Yeah, that was cool.
Yeah, how about him and old Dana Carvey?
Dana still had it, though. He still sounded like the original Garth. I've always seen Mike Myers. Yeah. That was cool. Yeah, how about him and old Dana Carvey? Dana Carvey's a weird mouth.
Dana still had it, though.
He still sounded like the original Garth.
I think there's a lot of shots that have been put in his face
that made his one cheek sit a little bit harder than the other.
Unless there was some medical thing that happened,
then I'm a terrible person.
I should not talk about that.
Yeah, I mean, I knew I was going out there on a limb,
but fuck it.
Whatever.
It was interesting.
Everybody noticed.
I don't care what I say.
Everybody was just looking at his mouth.
I'm like, those cheeks.
What's going on?
Good conversation, though.
Oh, yeah.
Big time.
Good conversation.

My big takeaway was that Arena, Bradley Cooper, and Lady Gaga are for sure having threesomes.
I don't think Bradley and Gaga are by themselves, but I think they're swinging together.
A lot of people were talking about how Arena should have won Best Actor of the Night.
That's what I'm saying.
She's very skilled if she's an actress.
That was impressive to watch.
It really was.
Because if she was to get jealous, then you're questioning the art of acting
with Bradley Cooper, right? Who
seems to be pretty balls deep in thespianism.
Yes, correct.
No way that is proper what I just said.
The movie's over. You don't have to
pretend you're in love right now on stage.
And then Lady Gaga just broke up with
her fiance.
She almost went in for the kiss, too.
She wanted it. Like it was natural.
She was not going to break eye contact until he did.
I can tell you that.
She just held on.
I think she wants Bradley Cooper.
Yeah.
Who doesn't?
No, granted, I'm not exactly.
That guy sounded, tell me something.
He's not supposed to be that good.
Professional singers get up on that stage in front of those people
and are terrible.
I mean, a couple did last night during that oscars who was the cowboy cowgirl that made
later i thought it was mason ramsey's parents at first
fuck them the uh jennifer hudson terrible she was screaming at me the entire time apparently i just
i literally just thought scrolling through twitter like she couldn't hear herself. There was some audio issue, apparently.
That makes sense, though, because she was a bit loud.
Yeah.
She sounded like that fucking DAZN commercial
where Michael Buffer's just yelling because she held a note
and it was echoing through the whole goddamn kitchen.
It's understandable, though.
When we can't hear ourselves, it's very weird in here.
So I take back what I just said, but Bradley Cooper,
I feel like he hit all of his shit
that you're supposed to as a singer.
And then Gaga is impressive.
Yeah, she is.
Gaga is impressive.
She's a talent.
I thought Bohemian Rhapsody was a better movie
than A Star is Born,
strictly because of how slow A Star is Born.
I thought Bohemian Rhapsody had a little bit more
ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba, you know?
But the Green Book winning, oh my God.
you know but the green book winning oh my god it really came in second and i didn't see roma but it looks like something i want to see don't
even get me started on roma i thought roma was the worst piece of art or if you can call it that
i watched it yesterday too right before i was like you know i'll dedicate myself to roma it's
supposed to be best picture turns out it's terrible and you shouldn't watch it ever.
Is it captions?
Captions, subtitles, black and white.
I mean, come on here.
That's interesting, man.
I saw that the homie Bigfoot or Smallfoot was on the pre-show.
Oh, yeah.
I was a big fan of the homie Smallfoot.
I think they did a breakdown of every movie that got released this year.
And I thought they were all the nominees.
So I was like, oh, I've seen a lot of these movies.
Sam was like, these are just movies that happened.
I was like, of course.
Of course.
I want to know, did all the favorites win?
Is that why Sam knew everything?
No.
Not at all.
Green Book was a massive underdog.
But I'm talking Sam went 10 of 13.
She didn't get the Green Book.
She didn't get the- Support. She didn't get the...
Supporting actress,
the favorite was Glenn Close
because she had been
nominated seven times
and hadn't won yet.
So I thought it was going to be
their year to make things right.
Okay, so that's the one
she got wrong.
She got that one wrong,
not the best actor one.
She did pull for Rami,
who I did not know
was from Egypt, by the way.
Oh, nice.
I think he went to Evansville,
University of Evansville, too,
here in Indiana at some point,
which is crazy.
That guy's a talent, man.
Yeah, Mr. Robots, he's won incredible TV.
Yeah, he's good.
He's really good.
Speaking of impressive, Mahershala Ali.
Is that back-to-back Oscars for him in consecutive years?
No, year apart.
Year apart?
Yeah.
And he's two out of the last three.
He got a trophy, and nobody really knows this guy.
Well, and the community hates him, too Green Book, nobody wanted Green Book to win.
So that's like
a very difficult scene
for Mahershala Ali.
I know him from
House of Cards,
by the way.
That's where he was
a lobbyist,
a great lobbyist
back in the day.
Great.
Good ball player too.
Smooth, attractive man.
Another reason
it was a long shot
was because
the Fairley brother,
Peter,
had that scandal
where he was showing
his dick to everybody
on the set.
Yeah, but we're used to that now.
Hey, wasn't there another scandal too with...
Yeah, Bohemian Rhapsody.
Their director got a bunch of allegations
with sexual assault and stuff like that.
So automatically in this day and age,
right now in Hollywood especially,
I thought, well, those won't get picked
because of those scandals.
And then, pfft, I won't be home.
Nice.
Nice, Hollywood.
Get up on that microphone. Tell me why I'm't be home. Nice. Nice, Hollywood. Get up on that microphone.
Tell me why I'm a terrible person.
And have two of your best pictures of sex scandals rocking them.
I didn't know that.
Yeah.
I had no idea.
Hey, let me ask you something.
Hollywood's a, hold on.
Hollywood's a weird place.
It is a weird place.
And it's like, there's a double standard.
You know what I'm saying?
It's a weird place.
Watching, because we watch.
They're not real people.
No.
We watch the red carpet.
Seacrest is just
a little tiny little fella,
by the way.
He was interviewing people
holding that microphone
straight up.
Just like this.
I ain't never seen
anything like it before.
He was like this.
I'm like,
yo,
that guy must be 5'2".
He was holding the mic up
like this for somebody
and you would think
they'd give him like a box
maybe to stand on,
which they might.
I don't know.
I didn't miss.
He has his own collection of suits, by the way.
He was wearing them last night.
Plugged it a couple times.
That whole red carpet, the interviews,
terrible.
It was so awkward, man.
They're terrible interviews. I'm being forced to watch this thing.
I'm like, alright, I'm going to enjoy it at least.
The Vitamins and I have a conversation.
We're like, listen, let's just go ahead.
Maybe one day we'll be on this thing.
How do we make it better? So then the first minute. We're like, listen, let's just go ahead. Maybe one day we'll be on this thing. How do we make it better?
So then the first minute, I'm like, all right.
The interviews are dog shit.
No one holds the mic either, right?
Is that a thing I picked up?
Yeah, it's always.
It's like talking off every time.
The whole interview is like, oh, you did good in that.
Because you only give them two mics.
And then there's always like three people in the interview.
It's always, you look good.
Who are you wearing?
How are you proud?
Blah, blah, blah. But Seacrest is like the face of Hollywood. I didn't know that. It's always you look good. Who are you wearing? How are you proud?
Blah, blah, blah. But Seacrest is like the face of Hollywood.
I didn't know that.
Oh, yeah.
That Hollywood.
That's a whole different community over there.
And Seacrest was both on ABC and E.
He was like the face of Hollywood.
I didn't even think about that.
He's King E.
That's what I'm saying.
Well, he actually is because he sold the Kardashian thing.
But you think like Mike torico al michaels
rich eisen damn patrick sports right like hey if people are going to talk these are the people that
are going to talk here you go hollywood it's literally ryan seacrest is going to be the mouth
of the whole thing so whenever he was getting attacked a couple months ago not knowing what i
know now from observing and watching it's like everybody's
like his friend like come talk you told me last year this like he's all the way in that little
scandal he had if that would have taken him down hollywood it would have been a bad bad bad bad bad
spot i mean bad bad bad spot i feel like that asshole james corden would have to step in oh
he probably is the guy huh i feel like i feel like he's just or grandma he's talented by the way
okay different shows you know that right yeah i know yeah yeah Probably is the guy, huh? I feel like it. I feel like he's just that. Or Guillermo. He's talented, by the way.
Okay.
Different shows.
You know that, right?
Yeah, I know.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You know who that is.
James Corden, that carpool karaoke is a brilliant idea.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
I don't want to knock him at all, like as a host,
because I think his interviewing skills are suspect.
I think there's a lot of things we can talk about. But that carpool karaoke, damn near genius.
Also, the rap battles that he was getting actors and actresses to do, huge.
I enjoy his segments.
The show, though, is tough from beginning to end.
It's tough to stick through there.
But if you catch him the next day on the YouTube, it's a lot better operation.
And Seacrest was just born for it.
You know what I mean?
Didn't Dick What's-His-F, give him his whole thing, right?
Yeah, he's the new Dick Clark. He loves his protege, right?
Yeah, Dick Clark, I think, just gave him the keys
to the kingdom. Well, then he got American Idol,
and American Idol blew the fuck up.
Yep, and then he started with Kardashians.
And now he's on, I don't know if
was he on Kiss before
American Idol? Yes, LA. He was LA's Kiss FM.
So he was pop music
in LA, the voice of it. I mean, that's a good start. He still is, though, I think. Yeah.'s Kiss FM. So he was pop music in L.A., the voice of it.
I mean, that's a good start.
He still is, though, I think.
Yeah, yeah.
He still is.
But he's got the morning show, too.
Yeah, he has the morning show.
Hardest working man in the biz, they say.
Hardest working man in the biz, Ryan Seacrest.
You can't watch anything that comes on E and his name's not in the credits.
Yeah, what is it?
Kelly and Ryan, too, right?
Isn't he with Kelly Ripa, too?
Yeah.
By the way, you brought up the Kardashians.
And they've been in the news a lot lately a lot going on and so that whole thing happened with Tristan yeah and the Sasquatch one Todd he watches but anyways and of course and of course my
girlfriend watches and she brings up and she's like can you believe this shit and my first
question goes was when's the new season come out? And she goes, it's actually this week.
And I'm like, thank you.
It's fucking.
Yeah, it's Kris Jenner.
That's what Kris Jenner does.
The devil works hard.
Kris Jenner works harder.
That lady will not stop until she's a billionaire.
And it's going to be soon.
I think it's going to be soon.
One of her daughters.
People are still buying it.
Everybody.
What are you talking about?
People are still buying it.
I'm not buying it.
That thing took over Twitter.
That was all over Twitter.
Look, Todd knows.
Todd knows.
Still, I know.
Todd McComb is a 40-some-year-old white guy in Indiana,
21-year state police officer, Marine.
Ooh, Rob!
Knows exactly that Tristan Thompson fucked over Khloe
with Kylie's best friend,
who all just so happened to be under contract
with Keeping Up with the Kardashians.
He just knows that because he wanted to know how it would affect Cleveland Cavaliers money.
You degenerate fuck!
Not a bad play, though, by the way.
He might be a little bit more focused on basketball now that he's got the whole world coming against him.
Kobe, Michael Jordan, all these people.
When there's outside distractions, normally they dial in a little bit.
Not saying that Tristan's good at basketball.
But what a wild scene it is.
They're incredible. They're great promoters.
She's the female Vince McMahon.
Yes.
That's exactly what she is.
I assume the Kardashians will become a public traded company
at some point. I am being serious
when I say that. And I think she'll
cash out for probably $5-6 billion.
And that's just how it goes. You had a question though.
I did. Lady Gaga, who I love.
I mean, I'd go see her in concert.
If she came to Indianapolis, I would go.
I love watching her.
But I've seen her on other award shows,
and it's like, hun, you've been at the top of your game
for a lot of years.
Don't act so surprised that you win these awards.
Oh, you're saying everybody's saying it was fake.
Oh, my God.
I saw the Rappaport today.
She's emotional.
Mike Rappaport.
I get it, but, you know, you're a good guy. Michael Rappaport. Michael Rappaport was. She's emotional. Mike Rapaport.
Michael Rapaport.
Michael Rapaport was like,
it's a fake.
Who's a bigger fake crier or somebody else?
I didn't even think
that people were thinking
she was being a fake crier.
I think she's just
a dramatic person.
I agree.
Very.
Extremely.
Also, the love of her life
is sitting with his wife.
So that's a little upsetting.
I love this person.
I love this person.
I love this person, Bradley. I person. I love this person, Bradley.
I couldn't have done this song without you.
In her head, she said, I love you.
Oh, yeah.
Thank you for pointing that out.
Then she saw Irina and was like, I, bitch,
couldn't have done this without you.
That was the biggest tell of the night.
Yeah, yeah, it was.
I think she's dramatic though yeah and also i saw when ryan seacrest was interviewing the queen the band of queen not rami the band of
in the movie the actors in the movie that played the band yes oh gotcha there he was talking to
them and band was there all night yeah they look like they're fresh out of the wig party by the
way hey that motherfucker looks like washington he's about to walk in the senate and bang some hammers around that shit was
wild that guy's hair is next level but uh the actual the actors of those guys the actors of
the band that aren't getting any love there's like four of them and ryan seacrest one microphone by
the way four of them so you know how it went. Technically terrible. But he asked them, what's the big takeaway from the night?
And a lot of them, the two of them said, it just means that it's all over.
Like, this is the end of it.
Like, this is the end of Bohemian Rhapsody.
So this is like the end of these guys' greatest run of their life.
I assume Gaga feels the exact same way.
Like, this is the end of Jack and Ali.
Like, this is a huge moment in my life, and this is the end of it because it's over.
It's just like a stand-up comedian that puts a story on a special.
It's over.
This thing's over.
You can't work with it anymore.
You can't fine-tune it.
You can't change it.
It's over.
It's on to greener pastures.
Lady Gaga probably felt a little upset.
It's like the end of a season.
It's like the end of a sports season.
Yeah, but those players are coming back.
A lot of them. These ones, who knows if
Gaga will ever be in a movie that big
or awesome ever again.
Those actors in the band of Behemian Rhapsody,
half of them ain't ever going to be seen again.
This is it. They're enjoying the fuck
out of the gift bag
from the Oscars.
This shit ain't happening again.
Fun fact, one of those actors is the little kid, the boy from the Oscars. This shit ain't happening again. Fun fact, one of those actors is the
little kid, the boy from the original Jurassic
Park.
You never know. Look at
Cooper. He was sacking people,
sack lunch there for a while,
and then a couple years later, he's one of the biggest actors on the planet.
That tweet did well for me.
That tweet did well for me.
I didn't even realize
until
after I sent it how clever it was. I didn't even realize until after I sent it how clever it was.
I didn't even realize.
I said just a couple years ago,
Bradley Cooper was stealing children's money for an Epic Vegas trip.
Now he's stealing the show with Lady Gaga.
So two times saying the stealing word in there?
Didn't even think about it.
It wasn't until after I put it out and I saw it going i was like oh that's incredibly clever i was just so high i was like oh let me
just let me just show that i'm watching this thing and i was like oh good for me putting the two
stealings in there look at me go so this is it's true though yeah it is bradley cooper was typecast
there for a little bit i assume and then he kind of made his own lane. I had no idea that a star was born.
This is the fourth one, though.
I had no clue that this is four of them.
Four of them.
He made his way out of that typecast in the four of them.
You told me three yesterday,
and then my fucking Academy girlfriend was like, four.
Wow.
Wow, you got it.
But Streisand crossed yesterday.
Yeah.
And who's that other one?
Ben Miller.
The witch.
She was one of the witches.
Oh, yeah.
Hey, good call. Well, Sam made me watch that for. The witch. She was one of the witches. Oh, yeah.
Hey, good call.
Well, Sam made me watch that for the first time.
No, this is the second time B. Coop, his acting partner,
has got more praise than he has in an Oscar-nominated movie.
Because what was the one with Jennifer Lawrence?
So Lines Playbook.
Yeah, but, you know, the holder is just as important as the character.
Nobody knows.
I thought he did an incredible job.
I did too.
I mean, it's like a Leo situation.
He had to wait a really long time before he got his first one.
So it'll happen eventually.
Do you think that's like an inside joke with the Academy? Like, hey, these people, Leo, Cooper, that close little lady.
Like, hey, this is something that people talk about.
Let's deliberately fuck over this guy.
Well, I think sometimes it's like they end up giving him,
they give him an Oscar for something they didn't deserve it for,
just as like, we're sorry that it took this long for us to actually get it won.
Oh, it's like a life award.
It's like a life achievement.
That's what I was thinking was going to happen with Samuel L. Jackson,
because he's never won one.
So I could see them giving him some type of lifetime achievement award.
Spike Lee.
No, Samuel L.
Oh, I didn't even know Samuel L other than announcing it.
Oh, you said he's never won an Oscar.
He's never won one.
So you just thought last night they were just going to pop up?
Yeah, he was up there presenting.
It popped in my mind.
I was like, has he ever won one?
I Googled it.
No, he hadn't.
So I'm thinking down the road at some point, I could see them doing that, giving him the
lifetime award.
He's going to stop doing shitty movies.
Who?
Samuel L. Jackson?
Who's he?
No, no goes he does every
single movie that's put in front of me he's a working actor you know yeah the aquafina
i love her i think i'm a fan of hers as well she's drinking out of her purse
that was awesome i didn't like her that much last night but in uh crazy rich asians i believe
this is the name crazy stupid something watch that movie great in that movie. Great in that movie. Crazy Stupid Love, different movie.
Crazy Rich Asians, definitely a movie that
was talked about by Ryan Seacrest and
many Asians on the
red carpet. Did not ask any of the white people
about this. It's kind of
interesting to me. But Ryan Seacrest had
a good beard. I don't know if anybody saw it.
His beard was, I
mean, I think old cuzzy came in,
balance the barber came in. I think he sprayed it the barber, came in, and sprayed it down.
It looked like he potentially sprayed it down.
I enjoyed the Oscars, though.
I was forced to watch it.
Definitely forced to watch it.
That is a nice beard.
Cruel and unusual punishment at points for how terrible a lot of things were.
There was a lot of really bad moments in there.
I would be a fan.
Melissa McCarthy.
Oh, yes.
She dominated.
There is a lady that can turn a situation that's monotonous, terrible, boring.
Nobody wants to hear.
It made it magical.
I don't even know who the guy was next to her.
Was it Paperboy?
Good for him, too.
I didn't see.
I'm not sure.
Good for him, too.
I mean, that guy bought in full character.
Melissa McCarthy went out there and dominated.
She's so funny.
That little bunny, I was dying.
She did it for high people.
She did it for me.
And then the back of that dress,
I'm a big,
I am on record as saying I'm a big
Melissa McCarthy fan. I've watched
The Boss. I think she is genuinely
a funny person. I've not seen that
most recent one, though. The serious
one. Yeah, please forgive me. It's supposed to be pretty good i watched the first
scene she chugs a glass of whiskey on the rocks somebody behind her goes you're not supposed to
drink on the job and she goes well fuck whoever said that and turns around it's her boss so she
chugs it throws the ice into the trash can and puts her cup into her briefcase and then walks out.
And that's how the movie starts.
I'm like, I'm going to come back to this one.
I think this could be a good one.
It was going to be a sleeper for me.
I like most McCarthy a lot, though.
That needed to be said.
Very, very funny.
Yep.
Jennifer Lopez, still very hot.
Yep.
How old is she?
15.
Hey, A-Rod's an interesting dude, man.
Why were they there?
She was a presenter. Yeah, I know that, but like why they couldn't find someone else who's rod's an interesting cat
though his face looks like he's just kind of you know like confused will ferrell talks about his
impression of george bush and he said his when i do george bush my face just has no idea what the
brain and mouth are saying so they just don't match up with
each other and he said he feels as if there's something that happens from brain to mouth where
something gets lost and he said that's my impression a rod it looks like his face has no
idea what's going on like his reactions he's like smiling and like yeah exactly he's like he's
bebopping like and then he was telling j-lo he wanted to stay at the next spot on the red carpet
it was just a rod's an interesting i don't think i fully understand the a-rod only anyone does he fits into
hollywood because he's also not a fucking real human there's not a lot of real humans out there
that lady won best actress real human you could really shows uh he should have wore black by the
way with her dress i think i mean if we're to go red carpet fashion diving, she wore like a disco ball.
Right.
And he wore white.
Correct.
Think you should have went with black, personally.
Just make it look a little bit better in my eyes.
But hey, who am I to judge billionaire A-Rod?
I didn't know anything.
I thought Jason Momoa had the best suit.
Oh, yeah.
That was wild.
The magic scrunchie was awesome.
Did you see him when he put it on?
Oh, there was an after party.
He put it on, and it was the most perfect ponytail
I think I've ever seen in my entire life.
He's dating Kravitz?
Yeah.
His ex-wife.
That's his ex-wife?
Lenny Kravitz's ex-wife, yeah.
No, it's his daughter.
Lenny Kravitz's daughter.
You're unbelievable.
That he's dating?
You're unbelievable.
No, he's dating his ex-wife.
No, that's Lisa Bonet.
Yeah, that's who he was with.
Lisa Bonet.
That lady is his daughter.
No, Zoe. Is his daughter. Yeah. Lenny who he was with. That lady is his daughter. No, Zoe is his daughter.
Yeah.
Lisa Bonet is his ex-wife.
He was with Lisa Bonet last night.
Huh.
There we go.
I heard the name Zoe Kravitz, though, for sure.
In the post thing, while he's standing with her, Zoe Kravitz was said.
So maybe the people at E! need
to apologize.
I gotta apologize to Zito.
I thought that was Zoe Kravitz sitting next
to him on stage.
Turns out it's
Lisa Benet.
Holy crap. She's a lot older than him,
right? Very older. Yes. She looks great.
Yeah. Lord.
I was saying it easy, Gord. looks great yeah lord i thought it was a story uh story about his suit though hey aquaman is 51 aquaman will come in and flip you what a human he is and those that
flow is incredible a story about that suit though the guy who made it died two days after after he
made the suit yeah so it's like the designer, whoever that guy is.
That thing's going to be worth a fuck.
I assume it's a famous designer.
It's a very famous designer, yeah.
You should have heard, because he's on the TV talking about these people's design.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
A lady, a guy had a $30 million thing on her chest.
Tiffany's.
What?
As a guy who stopped at Tiffany's looking at gauge rings, they are known for overpriced diamonds.
I will let that be known. But yeah, she had a $30 million
thing. How about old buddy
from Pittsburgh, black guy who had the
dress on. Did you see that? Oh yeah, I did see. I did not
know who he was or that he was from
there, but I did see the picture. He's from Pittsburgh.
Billy Roberts, I think is his name. He's from
Pittsburgh. They did an interview with him. Fashion capital of the world.
And he said, shout out Pittsburgh. And I was like,
they were talking about how he won the night. And I was like,
yeah, that's what we do.
That's what we do.
He was starting out there.
I thought it was going to be just like, for instance,
if we ever get on one of these carpets,
somebody wants to wear a dress like the cousin did.
It should just be a snap off.
There it is.
Pants underneath.
You just put that thing around.
Because I don't know how they fit in any of those fucking chairs.
I've been to a movie theater.
I've been to a theater.
Those are tiny little seats. those people have heaping dresses how do they fit
into the fucking thing i think they're tiny little people it was a three hours and 23 they are tiny
little secrets though was holding that secrets was holding that thing up they are probably little
tiny little people yeah hollywood's a weird place. Very weird place, man. Very weird place.
What would have won for you, Ty?
What would have been best picture?
I personally would have given it to Stars Born.
Really?
Yeah.
How come?
Because it had everything that you say it needed to have?
Well, I feel like that had the...
I mean, it was kind of not middle America, but more people saw that, I guess, maybe Bohemian Rhapsody.
But I also think it's very hard to direct, act, and I think all the roles in it were just perfect.
So Bradley Cooper directed that thing, which means he's behind cameras setting up cameras?
Right.
He's setting up the scene every single time and then getting in front of the camera and acting.
That's a lot of fucking work.
Play the guitar.
And singing and playing the guitar.
Tell me something,
girl. Also,
Diggs mentioned earlier, he used
to be an alcoholic, and I feel
like it's very hard to...
It's very noticeable if you're acting
drunk and it doesn't seem genuine.
He seemed like a fucking
booze hound the entire time.
You guys want people in here?
This isn't your type of place.
They got alcohol? It's my type of place.
Am I hallucinating?
That is one of the first things.
I really enjoyed the candidness
of it. I just thought it was a little slow.
Do you think
he's going to step off the
megastar super train because he's he's uh his mentor is clint eastwood right he's in clint
eastwood movies clint eastwood started you got that point he just started making every movie
he was in he was the director and the lead passion project yeah so do you think this is what he's
going to start doing ty uh not necessarily he said he's got another one on deck like he will, but I don't think he's going to do like Eastwood picks one.
I think he's still going to act quite a bit.
I don't think he's going to switch over to where he's only directing the stuff that he's in.
Bradley, they said this was a passion project for you.
Do you know what you're going to do next at Ryan Seacrest?
Bradley goes, I do.
Were you going to share with that?
No. That honestly bothered me. Yes, it was. Were you going to share with that? No.
That honestly bothered me.
Yes, it was very tough.
It makes no sense.
Put a fucking lav on the guy.
Or just hand them a mic.
They know how to use a mic.
No, they do that, but then they have five guys,
and they all have to split a mic.
It's the dumbest thing.
It's very tough.
This is the awards for putting together production and shit,
and it's the worst produced thing.
This has always been my question about these things.
How can it be so bad when you have so many entertaining?
It's because they're all in this audience.
Yes.
And the amateurs like the AAFL are playing quarterback.
Makes sense.
Makes a lot of sense.
How about sports talk?
Do we have any sports talk?
We even talked to Robert Kraft on this podcast.
Fuck Robert Kraft.
It's hockey talk time.
Hockey talk will stay for a second because Robert Kraft is a bit more topical.
God damn it.
Robert Kraft has been two solicitations of prostitution thing
because he was a regular at a rub and tug called the
Orchid.
The Orchid.
I think everybody has the same question here. Obviously
anything that's happening in those rub and tugs is terrible.
The people are flown in. It's a terrible thing.
I think everybody has the same
question though. It's like, you have
a billion dollars.
You would assume that if you wanted to get a little
blowski and you couldn to get a little blowski
and you couldn't get it as a billionaire,
you could have one of these ladies of the evening
who sign up to be ladies of the evening
for whatever reasons they are,
just show up at the house or in the car or anywhere, really,
if you have a billion dollars.
That's everybody's thing,
is how stupid it was of Robert Kraft to do that. That's how everybody feels yeah why are you not using a high price like uh escort
yeah tiger woods only got busted because his lady went through the whole thing and robert craft if
you don't have a lady that's gonna be pissed off about you for that i would assume that those
things tigers prove to us that those types of operations that happen as regular humans you
always wonder like i wonder if those fucking super rich people
just have their own little...
Turned out, Tiger Woods showed us,
like, yep, they do.
They absolutely do.
And it makes you wonder, like,
why didn't that happen with old Robert?
I think he might have lived near there.
How about, like, blow it?
Does he have a house down there?
Yes.
In Jupiter, yeah.
Okay, that makes sense.
10-59, he rolled in into Bentley.
He left at 11.13.
11.01, he was already getting blown.
I said to Pat earlier, which means that was not his first time there.
No.
Your first time there, you're getting the tour.
You're asking how things work.
You're seeing how everything works.
14 minutes in and out is not your first time.
He goes out of the Bentley, tips the cap to the lady at the front.
You know the deal. Boom, within He goes out of the Bentley, tips the cap to the lady at the front. You know the deal.
Boom, within 120 seconds of leaving the Bentley,
he's getting blown by lady.
Less than a few minutes, they say.
She cleans him up, pays.
He's on a Bentley right to the AFC Championship game.
What a fucking life.
Efficient.
Efficient life.
The wording was so awkward, too.
It's like they had a quick hug, and then she just started sucking him off.
She's a gentleman.
Suck me off.
He's a gentleman.
Nobody knows what he's going to do.
It was so efficient.
It made me think, like, is that a pregame ritual for him?
Because it was on game day.
It was AFC Champions.
What if this is what takes down the dynasty?
What if this is what takes down the dynasty? What if this is what ends the Patriots?
Is the owner no longer can go into his local rub and tug and get a,
because he's potentially paying a very large fine,
I assume to the entire city of Jupiter.
Okay.
Yeah.
For that.
So like,
yeah,
for the video not to get out.
Yeah.
That the NFL can only find him $500,000,
which I guess compared to his,
I saw a tweet about it.
Compared to his, what he makes, it's like $2 for the rest of us.
Dollar saved his dollar.
Let's suspend him.
He's going to get a six-game suspension or something where he can't show up at Gillette.
Oh, no, he has to watch the game in his giant mansion while getting blown.
I was about to say, watch it from the Oasis.
Good for old Robert.
Wait, Connor, did your friend ever go to the Goodfellas Pizza across the street?
No, I think that guy was just throwing out shade.
We had inside scoops there at Goodfellas Pizza across the street.
A guy named Joe answered the phone.
Connor was talking to him.
Connor decided to go with an angle that he was on the practice squad of the New England Patriots and wanted to know what happened.
And the guy named Joe on the phone was like,
what do you want to know?
And we were all like asking him if he's seen him.
He's like, maybe.
Maybe I have pictures.
So I think, now granted, Joe from Goodfellas could have been fucking
with a guy who was fucking with him.
You know, it could have been reciprocating fucking with.
Fuckery.
Yep.
But that spa plaza did look pretty wide open. fucking with him you know it could have been reciprocating fucking with fuckery yep but that
spa plaza did look pretty wide open i mean he was getting plaza blowjobs and a bentley's rolling up
you're like that's not going to cause any uh problems nobody will even notice jupiter though
is filled with a bunch of big names that's why when schefter said that his isn't the biggest
name on the list which is getting called into question now, by the way. The local authorities said,
we have no idea what bigger name could be on this.
So Schefter and Atom Bomb could have missed the target,
which is not good news.
Well, we started going through the Jupiter population.
Like who celebrities that live in Jupiter.
I was all in on Michael Jordan stopping by Plaza Robins.
Turns out he didn't.
I was all in on Slick Willie.
Bill Clinton? Yeah. Yeah, Bill I was all in on Slick Willie. Bill Clinton?
Yeah.
Yeah, Bill Clinton was stopping down at the Oasis.
It is so weird to me, though.
There has to be more to this.
There's no way that Robert Kraft.
Like he just stumbles upon this one?
Most successful owner in all of professional sports.
Right?
That's what we can call the Patriots.
Sure.
We can call them the most successful dynasty right now in the history of sports, just in general.
Maybe Andre the Giant had a little bit more of a dominant run back in the day,
but I don't know if there's any other sports team
that could even come close to what the Patriots have done.
Most successful owner is walking in there,
getting blown and leaving for no reason.
There has to be something going on, man.
What do you think?
He's just too smart of a guy.
In my head, he's too smart of a guy to do that.
Chris Carter was saying it at a symposium
that Robert Kraft was paying for, right?
Robert Kraft was employing him to speak,
and this is one of the owners,
saying, hey, you need a fall guy?
If you're a billionaire and you want to pay for a blowjob,
I think you need a fall guy for that blowjob.
Or a body double.
That would be his excuse.
That's what R. Kelly pulled.
He said it was his brother
when it was back in state.
That's all coming back to get his ass right now, by the way.
They got like three different videos of him.
So you think the tape doesn't see the light of day
because he's going to pay for it too?
Yeah, Jupiter's about to get some upgrades.
I don't think that video's ever coming out.
Everyone's driving around in Corvettes.
By the way, if that video does come out, that means nobody's safe. I also think it's going to be hysterical if that video's ever coming out. Everyone's driving around in Corvettes. By the way, if that video does come out,
that means nobody's safe.
I also think it's going to be hysterical if that video comes out.
All of them will come out if the Bob Craft comes out.
Well, that's what I'm saying.
If a billionaire can't hide something,
that means everything, everything forever.
That's an insane story, though.
Took over the world Friday afternoon.
Took over St. Paddy's Day sale.
Took over St. Paddy's Day sale, which did well, by the way.
Today at roughly noon, noon 30, we will be announcing the rankings.
CFO Uncle Phil is coming into town to do the debut.
I will tell you what.
It was an electric time watching the standings on that final day.
There was a lot of movement of shirts.
There was about six that were in play.
Top three get bonuses, and the pub gets a bar if they get into the top three.
There was six shirts.
The sixth one kind of fell off,
but there was five shirts that were in the running for the top three there.
Really, really, really fucking close.
Excited to make the announcement.
Can I ask an honest question?
If you guys are in the top three
and you get a bar for the pub,
where the fuck is a bar going to fit in the pub?
Between the two rooms.
Champion's Corner.
Yeah, Champion's Corner.
So it's like a two-by-two bar.
We're upgrading content now.
No, there's still plenty of room.
I've been to your house.
Champion's Corner, pretty small little corner.
The bar cannot be bigger than this table.
It's a pretty small little corner. It could probably be
double that table.
Yeah.
There is not room
for two of you
in those videos
that you guys shoot.
That's a solo rider.
Because it's a small bar.
It's a small corner.
That's what we're saying.
Thanks for making my point, Zito.
Zito would like to go
on the plaintiff's side.
But honestly,
it's a small little area.
It is.
I'll make it work.
We'll find a good one.
If you guys are in top three.
Well, that's why I hate Robert Kraft, because I think we're top three lock, and then he
goes and does this.
Now we have a fire shirt that kicks us out of the top three.
He didn't help.
That shirt was incredible.
Yeah.
That's a good shirt.
By the way, not accusing anybody of anything.
We're just saying don't get arrested.
Just don't get arrested.
But quick shout out to all the pub members that did buy merch.
We love you guys so much.
Shout out to everyone who bought merch, because this is a small business collectively and
not just one house.
And by the way,
speaking of house,
you can still buy shirts
at full price
to support your favorite
small businesses,
lights and shit like that
to keep you in the house.
You know what I mean?
Great shirts.
Great shirts.
Still got plenty of time.
Order by the 5th, I think,
to get it by St. Patrick's Day.
There it is.
I would like to let you know, if you order on March 5th,
you are dancing with the devil.
You are dancing with the devil.
We obviously do not create the shirts and ship them ourselves.
We have a company that does it.
They sometimes, I don't know what's going to happen.
You keep us updated, but let's get it by the 4th, maybe.
3rd. Maybe the 2nd. Yeah, don't procrastinate. going to happen. You keep us updated, but let's get it by the fourth, maybe. Third.
Maybe the second.
Yeah, don't procrastinate.
Get it today.
I was going to... No.
Go ahead.
Go ahead.
Come on.

26th.
You get it.
Nailed it.
All right, let's do it.
It's time.
Ladies and gentlemen, a sport was created in Canada where they put blades on their feet.
They skated around ponds with sticks and hit rocks at each other.
Then it grew to a place that had a goal.
Then it grew to having rules.
Then America got a hold of it and did what America does and created an entire
league.
It's the most electrifying live sporting event each and every single time.
It is time for
Hockey Talk.
Thank you for giving the introduction that that sport
deserves. It's greatly appreciated.
Tick tock, my friend.
You better not do it.
Oh, you don't have questions?
You're not going to ask me what you want to know?
This is Hockey Talk. Well, the trade deadline is today.
It ended at 3 p.m., okay?
And the Vegas Golden Knights steal the day.
They get the biggest prize.
Go!
Mark Stone.
Ty's been a fan of the Golden Knights since conception.
Yes, I have.
And I actually told Nick with this trade, I said, hey, listen, we get Stoner in the lineup.
Oh, Matt Stoner.
We might be hoisting Lord Stanley's Cup.
How about that?
In year two.
Yeah, year two.
Wow.
Mark Stone, stud scoring winger.
He's going to light the lamp for the Knights.
What'd you say his name was, Zito?
Matt.
That's weird.
I thought it was his brother.
I got you.
Mark Stone lighting the lamp from the Carolina Hurricanes.
From the Ottawa Senators to the Vegas Golden Knights.
It's going to be a bloodbath in the West.
The West loaded up.
Every top team in the West went ahead and picked up somebody except for Calgary. Calgary's the only team that
stood pat.
Great word there at the end.
I
gave away,
which I don't always do. I make people
Venmo me for my picks.
Like any good sports handicapper.
I gave away my
Lock of the Century for free on
the Twitter. It was a good one.
Lock of the century.
Until it wasn't.
It was lock of the century.
It was good for about 58 minutes.
It was a stadium series game, national TV, all eyes on us.
It was against the Philadelphia Flyers in Philadelphia.
Pittsburgh Penguins have the greatest hockey player to ever step on the ice
in Sidney Crosby, who happens to hate Philadelphia and love the lights.
Loves it.
Lock of the century.
Sidney Crosby will lead the Pittsburgh Penguins to a dominant upset.
They will score more than three and a half goals,
and they will beat the Philadelphia Flyers.
Lock of the century.
You're welcome, is what I said.
You're welcome.
You looked good for a long time.
Didn't I?
Really did.
I mean, I looked really good for a long time.
Empty net even the last three minutes.
We're going to pick up a trash goal.
We're going to hit the over, and we're going to win.
You would think, Pat.
You would think.
This room lost a lot of money.
A lot.
Fucked me hard.
Oh, yeah.
Real hard. I would have hit like
a 850 dollar parlay oh my we were only game we were all in my garage and i had the game on there
and i was like well if we're all gonna watch it we might as all put money on the pens yep yeah
that's what we're doing here and then all of a sudden uh somehow at the end of the goddamn uh
third period there matt murray decided to fuck it all up.
What is he doing?
So then it goes to overtime.
And he fucks it up again.
So then we lose and they don't score.
So it's three under.
I hammered the over for the Pets.
And we lose.
So it's not even a moral victory for my Twitter.
So it's just outrageous.
And this is not my fault. No. No And this is not my fault.
No.
No.
This is not my fault.
It's not?
Good news.
That was me reassuring to meself that it wasn't my fault. No, it wasn't your fault.
Because Nick certainly made it feel like it was 100% my fault.
Why would you do that?
I mean, when you throw out locks of the century for a team like the Pittsburgh Penguins,
who you've been to many games of.
I don't know this particular team, though, to be honest.
I couldn't even tell you who is on our team.
No, that's fine.
But you've been to many games,
and they've never had much success when you've been at the games.
I'll tell you what, pretty big losing record
whenever I'm in the building.
Or when you take a stance like that,
that they are the lock of the century.
You used emoji for the lock.
You were all in on it. A couple lines. Lock it up, I said.
Lock that
motherfucking shit up. Sometimes you get a feeling.
But things just went from bad to worse.
Then they lose two of their best defensemen
to injuries. Then they get a guy at the
deadline who's just a piece of garbage.
He doesn't even belong in the NHL.
And they're trading for this guy. It's a nightmare.
Eric Branson from Vancouver. He's terrible. belong in the NHL, and they're trading for this guy. It's a nightmare. Eric Branson from Vancouver.
He's terrible.
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
That guy's a penguin.
That guy's a penguin.
I don't want to respect.
Let's go, Pens.
We're going to hope he turns it around, but we don't have a lot of faith right now.
Now, listen, whenever you get into that organization, this winning organization, you turn it around.
It's like the Patriots of the ice.
That's what the Penguins are, the Patriots of the ice.
When you get in that organization, you turn it around.
That's what the Penguins are.
The Patriots of the ice.
When you get in that organization, you turn it around.
That's why in games like Stadium Series where it's raining,
it's a little bit of a sloppy pond. A bit slippy-ire.
Yeah.
A little bit slippy.
Yeah.
As opposed to normally when the ice isn't as slippy.
Yeah, normally the ice is not as slippy.
Slippy.
It's kind of what the ice is known for.
I like slippy.
They lose, though. They lost. I don't know how it even happens
I got fucking crushed on the internet
I mean all the Philadelphia
came out
that's all they got to cheer for
that was their Super Bowl
are the Pets going to win the Stanley Cup
they are one point out of a playoff spot right now
they have a huge game tonight
a huge game tonight against Columbus they need to win that and they'll be of a playoff spot right now. They have a huge game tonight. Out of the playoffs? A huge game tonight against Columbus.
They need to win that.
And they'll be in a wild card spot.
And this is probably where this team is.
They're probably a wild card team.
How many games we got left?
Well, probably off the top of my head, let's think here.
20.
Yeah, somewhere around 20, Mark.
18 games, something like that.
We got another good time.
Our next shot's our best shot.
We're still going to find our rhythm.
You don't need to be hot now.
You need to be hot when it matters.
Because when it matters, it matters.
And when it doesn't, it don't.
Traditionally, they play Incredible in March.
There's a beautiful documentary about it.
Everyone's seen it.
Yeah, the March of the Penguins.
Great movie.
And that's Hockey Talk.
And that's Hockey Talk.
Combine coming up.
Obviously, there's going to be a lot of things happening.
A lot of chit-chat happens here in Indianapolis.
There's a lot of tampering.
Agents talk to owners.
Owners talk to GMs.
Players even come talk to people.
Indianapolis is just a backdoor meeting paradise this week during the Combine.
On Thursday's show, we will chat with Chris Ballard,
who has over $100 million to spend next year.
I'll be excited to see whose back door he's been sneaking in.
You know what I'm talking about.
You said it.
Yeah, me.
You said it.
You were thinking it.
You said it, though.
Yeah, we were.
And then he.
And you said it.
That's coming on Thursday.
I'm excited for that.
A lot of big news in the NFL normally comes out of Indianapolis.
A lot of things. in the NFL normally comes out of Indianapolis.
A lot of things. Rules get changed this week. There's a lot of conversation about
rules being changed. There's
free agents that come out of here.
Trades that come out of here. Players
draft stock plummets out
of this. Some people shoot up like a
rocket or a KGB.
What is it? RPG.
A rocket. Doesn't go through people.
It's a something
propelled grenade. Forget the R.
Rocket propelled grenade.
That's a rocket.
It's a rocket launcher.
A-Train.
A-Train.
I learned today during golf
that Diggs is
you're called A-Train.
There was a human this weekend who did call me A-Train, yeah.
Diggs' other friend group calls him A-Train.
Oh, my God.
I don't hate it.
I don't hate the A-Train at all.
One of my girlfriend's friends from back in South Bend was in town for the weekend
to celebrate her birthday.
Happy birthday, by the way.
Very happy birthday.
I did not make it.
I wish I could have went.
Apparently, he calls me A-Train.
I don't remember it, but apparently it happens.
Well, I heard about it today.
Whenever we were playing a little game of golf, you hit a ball,
and old Ty Schmidt goes, okay, A-Train.
And I almost fucking stopped.
I was like, why have we not called it?
I don't mind it.
I don't think you should.
I think A-Train's a pretty good little name there.
Oh, yeah.
Get out of your way.
Normally when the nicknames come, I like going to the old tone route, but I could do A-Train. think A-Train's a pretty good little name there. Oh, yeah. Get out of your way. Normally when the nicknames come, I like going to the old tone route,
but I could do A-Train.
Is A-Train available on Twitter?
Oh!
Maybe put a Z at the end.
Nope.
A-Train's.
Nope.
Trying to get rid of that Z.
Anyways, a lot happening here in Indianapolis.
I'm excited to hear.
Go ahead.
Anyway, maybe I'll talk to Phil tomorrow when he's here,
but I think I need your approval as well.
Blessing is the word.
Maybe I get a couple hundreds from you guys.
I go to the bartenders at the top 10 steak houses down here.
They hear anything going on at the bar.
They text me.
Scoopsie Dixie's back.
Oh.
A-Train TMZ.
Scoopsies.
A-Train, A-Train TMZ.
Gassing up the A-Train.
I mean, no one's going to hear more this week than the bartenders.
The bartenders are the number one source for information this week.
A lot of drunk people saying a lot of things.
Normally, coaches get caught in alleys pissing, puking everywhere.
They get welcomed back to their hotel rooms.
I get thrown in solitary confinement.
Interesting little situation.
Who's your hospitality?
Real thing, I guess.
Might be cheaper just to get you in undercover as a bartender
at one of the big bars.
Oh, A-Train!
Just leave some drinks, gather some intel.
I could make like four drinks.
That's all you need?
What are you talking about?
I've seen the places y' you motherfuckers go to.
You don't need that deep of a roller.
Yeah, where we go to, not where coaches go to.
Oh, yeah.
They go to exact.
They actually go to smaller.
They try to disappear in town.
They'll be at the OTB.
Yeah, you stumble into.
Oh, the horseback.
You stumble in some places that you've never been in your life in Indianapolis Combine Week.
And you're just like, is that Jerry Jones?
Is that real?
I think I'm hallucinating.
It's kind of like the fucking Bradley Cooper thing, but that is real.
There was a video of Dean Blandino hopping off of Jerry Jones' bus going into fucking Revel here,
and it caused quite a scene.
Indianapolis is electric this week.
I kind of want to have Zito a correspondent
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I don't know who's gonna film it or who's gonna edit it. I'm gonna just do this
Oh little selfie can we send Zito to scope out the good Robin talks for Robert Kraft?
Oh, I should Zito's brain changes when he gets like in front of a camera. I know that's why he's not Zito
I've been trying to figure out a way to just film him but like from afar
You tell Zito to interview somebody it it's just normal ask human questions.
Oh, okay.
That's crazy.
Where are you from?
I feel like I have some good questions.
You do, whenever you're not actually questioning anybody.
You know what I mean?
Yeah.
We gave a couple shots at the Zito cast, and boy, it was a little bit different than what
happens naturally.
So we kind of got to film you
like Impractical Jokers. I like that.
Yeah but like I just don't know the cameras there.
Not the cast of the Impractical Jokers. We're talking about like
the other people that don't know what's going on.
So we will have two
we just got to like scope out of like a Truman show
type setup for you and just
film you and have you. Wait did I
find my niche? Truman show?
I think we found it for you.
Yeah, you found it.
What if you just built a diner next door?
Bring a camera.
Zito's just the bartender there.
Whoever's behind the counter. We make a fake bar.
Not a bad play.
Sign a release in here.
You're about to get peppered with questions
by the diner's waiter.
Just go with it, all right? We're filming it all.
Come on in, sit down.
Look at you, you had a hard day.
What do you do? Oh, bricklayer.
I worked on a cruise ship
once.
Bricklayer diner in Puerto Rico.
Oh, you've been to Puerto Rico. Is that your favorite place
to go to? Zito's balls

Anyways, the rules committee will be meeting,
and we got a chance to catch up with a guy who knows all about the rules.
And he also just so happens to be
one of the most electric human beings of all time.
And also, definitely not from the country
I thought he was from.
You'll see.
I have quite a moment here.
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome back to the Topgolf in Atlanta, Georgia, Super Bowl week.
Day three of our Wrangler Celebrity Charity Shootout.
The current leader is Bruce Arians at 150.
Carissa Thompson has 110.
And Harrison Phillips pulled out 99 out of his ass.
And Harrison Phillips pulled out 99 out of his ass.
This morning is a man that is a one-stop shop for all you need to know when it comes to refereeing in the NFL.
He's an Italian guy.
He's got great slicked back hair.
He's dressed in all black today, basically,
except for his belt, which I believe is brown.
It's a wild situation.
It's a black belt. I was wrong. Hey, it's a black belt. Be a you got dipped one too many times. It's a black belt. I was wrong.
A, it's a black belt. B, I'm Portuguese.
I'm not even Italian.
I had a linguiça sandwich this morning.
Let's go back to the beginning.
He's a Portuguese man.
Honestly, we all thought you were a paisan.
We were very excited. We thought you were in the Italian club.
The Portuguese club is much better than that anyways.
Ladies and gentlemen, Fox rules expert,
Mike Pereira. I am not a golf expert though. I'll tell you what, I watch you warming up. You are
incredible. Do you feel like this is going to be a game for you today? Well, first of all,
you understand I'm an official, so it's hard to beat a coach who's known for cheating.
So, you know, how am I going to get past Arians?
Yo, you're saying, bro.
Oh, my gosh, he pushes the envelope like unbelievable.
How?
Are you kidding me?
How does Bruce Arians push the envelope?
Oh, you know, he knows every little thing.
He was on the competition committee for him, so he knows how to take advantage of little schemes and where to hold and where not to hold.
Oh, wow.
You know.
Conspiracy out here.
How'd he do in the broadcast booth?
I don't know, but he's back on the field now.
Oh, shots fired.
I mean, I can take these shots at him now.
You know, when I worked for the league, I couldn't do it.
But, ah, geez, call me every week to complain.
Yadda, yadda, yadda.
Mike, I told this story yesterday.
Bruce Arians used to chew out the high school officials that would come to practice. Yadda, yadda, yadda. Mike, I told this story yesterday. Bruce Arians used to chew out the high school
officials that would come to practice.
Like in Indianapolis, these high school officials
would throw a flag or something, wouldn't throw
a pass interference. Bruce would sprint
down and let them know how terrible they were.
He's not the biggest fan of the refs, and I'm happy to hear
on the other side, you guys hate him as well.
Not the biggest. He's not the biggest fan of the refs.
Not the biggest. I have a question.
Is referee a bad term? You said official a couple times times and I continue to say. Well, no, see,
referee is the guy that wears the white hat. Everybody else are officials. You know, that's
what I see. I just learned something. You've got an umpire, you've got a line judge, you've
got a down judge, you've got a side judge, you've got a back judge, you've got a field
judge. And there's only one referee. He's the guy that turns on the microphone. He's
in charge of everything.
And he announces in New Orleans,
sorry, we missed that one.
Let's go back.
All right, well, you hit your first one.
You got 10 balls.
You want me to start already?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I will continue to hopefully learn more about officiating and your world.
We'll talk about the special teams game.
Hey, is there any way you guys will ever change the rule,
block in the back rule?
Not you guys because you don't work for the league anymore,
but do you think the league will ever change the block in the back rule on returns?
To make it what?
To make it just a little bit looser.
Like, hey, just a little bit.
Like, granted, if it's a little, if it's a hand, let it go.
But if it's a blatant block in the back, you've got to call it.
But why, if you're behind, if you're in a chase,
why would you even touch a guy? why even make the referee make a decision when you're here and you're the guy and i just put my hand up why do it now that now the official's got
to judge you know is it enough is it not well this guy's running a 4-2-40 this guy's running like a
4-3-4 8-4-40 but it does happen at a high speed you know i know it's a little bit different i i
actually would like to make it a personal foul, 15-yard penalty.
Then I think guys wouldn't do it.
Oh, so you're like, let's punish them harder so they learn not to do it.
Then they won't do it.
You know, sometimes it is a player safety thing when you blow a guy up on the back.
But other times, like you say, it's just a push.
But that's all it takes sometimes.
You get it right at the point of attack, and all it takes is just this to get the guy.
You're weak, man.
You are weak.
I'm hitting my first.
Hey, it's a practice ball.
We've had too long.
What if it counts?
What if I make it like a hole right in the middle?
Waste this one.
No, no, no, no.
Don't do that because we've had some situations here.
Bruce Aaron's got screwed out of a 50-butt.
He did?
Okay, I'm going to go for the green.
Oh, you stroked a beautiful one, too.
That's laying right in the middle of that.
Oh, my God, that would have been a great way to start.
It's a shame. It's a practice ball.
Those types of things happen, Mike.
Those types of things happen.
Did you, like, get practice? You didn't get practice.
I didn't, Mike. Kicks and practice stuff in football games.
Hey, every once in a while, you guys would make a call that was fake.
We'd have to re-kick, and then it would happen.
It was a break of practice round, you know what I mean?
How much did you get fined?
You got fined.
You did get fined. I had a helmet-to-helmet operation
there on Sunday Night Football. On the sideline
hit? Yeah, yeah. He was smaller
than me, though. I thought it was good technique.
Was it worth the money? Absolutely.
Potential
sore body for a month after that, Mike.
All right, now you're up.
Now we're ready to roll.
Oh, man.
Let's go.
You wasted a...
No, you didn't waste one.
You just showed yourself the right way to go.
Portuguese man.
Learned that earlier.
Portuguese do play golf.
Where are you from?
Okay, now the heat's on, I'll shank it.
No, no, you got ten balls.
Going right in the middle of the hole.
Even better for Mike Pereira.
Dead center for Mike Pereira.
20 points to start this thing.
You're on your way to a 200-point round at least.
Good pose. Hold the pose.
If you see, the hair looks fantastic. He looks
slender and slim. He's a TV guy now.
I had to use a lot of gel this morning, though.
Is that your go-to, the gel? Oh, God.
The heavy stuff. Yeah. This is a
Portuguese natural. You know, like,
it just, like, goes everywhere.
You're on TV a lot. They got you your own little box, too.
You have that Mike Pereira box in L.A.
I know.
And what, am I done?
Can I quit?
No, you got nine more. Where's my score?
Right there.
You got 20 right now.
You see it on TV right here?
Oh.
Can I hit the same shot?
Yeah, for ten straight times.
That's actually probably the best strategy.
Really?
Yeah.
Oh, if I could beat Bruce Arians.
Oh, my God.
If I could, like, I would find him down here today.
And I'd find him and say, I kicked your ass in golf.
Yeah, you would.
Yeah.
You can hit it 10 miles, but no.
I'd send him a text, too.
I'd say, hey.
Thank you.
Mike Pereira, official, kicked your ass today at Topgolf.
I've always wanted to.
Yeah.
I've always wanted to kick his ass.
Today's the day, Mike.
Look at this.
Today is the day, Mike.
Come on.
This one's, come on, on. This one's for Bruce.
Uh-oh, it's short.
No, I think you're in a good spot.
You're still going to get points.
Points, but it's short.
Still going to get points.
Oh, no.
Still going to get points.
That was an eight-pointer.
You're at 28 points.
The more you make, the more the points duplicate.
The more you make, the better you feel.
Mike, what are some hobbies of yours?
What?
What are some hobbies?
Fishing.
Fishing is my favorite thing to do.
Golf is my second.
And raising money for veterans is my third.
Yes, let's get to that.
This is for charity, $10,000.
Oh, my God.
He's just a consistent swinger.
That's going to be a good score there, Mike.
There's 12 more.
You're at 40 already, three balls into this thing.
You are well above the pace of everybody else.
Prince of Macamora is in dead last with 24.
Actually, I wouldn't mind.
If my score anywhere could touch Carissa.
That's the goal?
Yeah, I'd just like to.
Even if it's just like on a nameplate, if I could touch Carissa.
You just touched Carissa right there.
I saw that.
I did.
I kissed her earlier.
I love her.
She's fantastic.
Fox was great, higher.
What'd you ask me?
I forget.
I don't know.
I don't think I remember either.
I just watched you kiss a piece of paper here.
I kissed a piece of card.
Yeah, but it brought you a lot of luck.
It was one of my better ones.
Have you seen your picture that we're putting up here yet?
No, no.
I think you're going to want to kiss that too.
You're a handsome man.
Is it with or without makeup?
Okay, you want me to hit again?
Yeah.
Can I go for the same thing?
I'm not going to roll.
You can do the same thing ten times in a row.
He gets a kiss from a cardboard Carissa.
Get down.
And he continues to just garner points
here at Topgolf this morning.
That was a 12-point shot.
Are they going to accuse me of being weak because
I'm just going for the... No, this is smart.
Because it won't say on there, right? No, yeah.
Hey, listen. If you bank
a kick in, nobody tells that in the
score sheet. Nobody knows that.
If you bank a basketball shot
in, nobody says this was a bank, it was a
miss, but it went in. Like when you miss kicked it and it bounced 20 yards after it hit the ground
and you took credit for a 52-yard punt or something? Every yard counts, Mike. Every single one. Did you
enjoy punters and kickers? Actually, I love special teams. I did. I had special teams meetings with all
the coordinators one year because I didn't understand it.
I mean, I never understood the special teams yet.
I never understood the blocking concept and the difference of an offensive player grabbing a guy and throwing him to get downfield, a release to get downfield.
Were you a football guy growing up?
Uh-uh. This body was like 135 in high school.
This body, this body was like 135 in high school.
So I went out one time.
I went out one time to practice.
The first practice with pads in high school my sophomore year.
And a guy hit me right in the hip.
You've got to be kidding me.
Next day, I was on the free throw line in the gym.
Shooting free throws.
That's enough.
I said, that's enough.
But my dad was an official, so that's how I got started in this thing.
It was a shot to the hip that led to Pereira's hoops. It still hurts. I have weak pain tolerance.
But I can hit this target.
Oh, no, it's weak.
You're going to get points, but not as good as your last couple shots.
No, it's weak.
You're going to get points, not as good as your last couple shots weak you're going to get
points not as good as your last couple shots so the Pereira family is an officiating family you're
at 60 right now four balls in my dad yeah my dad five balls in sorry five balls in 60 almost I have
now I have to uh you have to go you have to continue to get points I have to get more points
yeah my dad was an official in college
and then when i was in college a guy asked me if i wanted to officiate and i said no i mean i was
going to santa clara i said i don't want to fit you know why i hear your dad officiates i said i
don't want to i have no interest whatsoever in officiating the guy goes well but your dad i said
maybe it's because i've seen my dad abused you, that I don't want to do that by fans and coaches.
Absolutely.
And so I said, I don't want it.
The guy said, it's Pop Warner football in East Palo Alto, Ravenswood High School, three games, 10 bucks a game, cash in your pocket, 1971.
He said, I always wanted to officiate.
So I went on the field to get 30 bucks cash.
And you know where I ended up?
The NFL.
Hitting balls with you here at this place.
A 30 buck investment, which went to all beer money, by the way.
I respect that.
I have a question, Mike.
Yeah.
Officials have nobody rooting for them, except for their family.
None.
Not even their family.
Not even their family. The guys in New Orleans, their families even don't like them except for their family. None. Not even their family. Not even their family.
The guys in New Orleans, their families even don't like them.
But, yeah.
No, they don't.
It's hard.
What the hell happened there?
I understand everything's fast.
It's boom, boom, boom.
Does the NFL have to change the rules so you can review blatant stuff like that?
Does it make the officials in bad position?
I'm sick of review.
I'm really sick of it.
You don't like it?
Well, I'm okay with replay, but not to extend it to where it is, to where we go, are we
going to review pass interference.
There's a simpler solution.
What is it?
You know, you have seven guys on the field.
College has eight, by the way.
I just want an eighth guy.
I just want an eighth guy who, instead of on the field, his feet are in a little booth.
Okay.
And he's got little video equipment in front of him.
He gets to see the TV shot live and run it back,
and he just treats it like the eighth member of the crew,
and if he sees something right away, player safety or pass interference,
like at the end of the game, just calls down to the referee and says,
hey, I got the shot.
It's interference on the Rams.
Put the ball at the six-yard line.
It's first down.
And he doesn't have to go over.
No replay stop, no nothing.
Play on. And that little surface thing is this big. It's this big. Oh, yeah, but that little surface. the six yard line it's first down and he doesn't have no replay stop no nothing play on and that
little surface thing is this big it's this oh yeah but there's a jumbotron that's a hundred yards
bigger but you can't look they tell you don't look at the jumbotron so all the time the coaches are
going look at look at you i can't look why can't i look because it looks bad well big yeah because
it looks bad and you can't use that damage Damage is already done anyways. So give an eighth official
and put them up in the box. And if like he sees a player safety thing, like if he sees your kill
shot on the sideline of 140 pound guy and they don't call it, then they can, they can call down
and say, Hey, we don't need to know his size. We don't need to know his size in that particular.
It was a good shot. Thank you. How much was it?
It was only, I think it was just 15 or so.
It was small.
Small.
Small.
It was small.
It was only 140.
I think it was 14,000 or so. 14,000?
Yeah, I think it was small.
I was gone by then.
I wouldn't have fined you.
That's very nice of you, Mike.
I would not have done it.
Were you in charge of fining people?
No.
All I would do is I would tell them back back when Gene Washington was there, before Merton
Hanks, and I would tell them that it's illegal.
So if I said the act was illegal and a foul, then I would send it up to them and they'd
make the decision.
Got you.
So you're just doing your job.
That's all I did.
You're not the guy taking people's money.
That's not you.
In your case, I would have said clean hit.
It wasn't.
Okay.
Hey, you're in a good run right now.
Five balls in, 60 points.
The stroke is back.
The stroke is good.
He's going to get points.
Not as many as he...
Oh, it took a good bounce for you, though, there.
12 points there.
72.
Let's go, Mike.
Let's go.
You're going to get on the board.
Well, you're at 72.
How many shots do I have left?
Four?
Four.
You're well on your way here.
They're going to multiply.
They're going to continue to multiply.
I think maybe, just something to think about, you have a very consistent swing.
Strategy.
Are you phoning a friend right now?
Oh.
Siri!
What do you mean?
If I'm you, what club is that there?
That's a nine iron.
You want me to hit a five iron into the blue?
Yeah, I think that's the play.
I think that's the play, because you'll get more points.
You have a good swing, too, so it shouldn't be a problem.
I think you're trying to protect
Carissa or somebody. Who, Bruce
Arians? You don't want me to get to the leaderboard
here. Okay. Okay, I'm
going to go blue. I will say I am...
Oh, what am I going, blue or am I going to...
I'm going to... How far is blue?
150.
That ain't nothing to you, Mike.
That ain't nothing. When you get in
TV, did you ever get nervous that whenever you talk on a microphone,
like, it can immediately backfire like that Carrie guy?
I still do get nervous.
Every time?
Pretty much.
Because it's a lot of pressure on you.
Well, it's just like now I'm in the business of predicting what they'll do.
You know, and when I first started my first year with Fox,
they gave me all the obvious ones, you know. So you have a my first year with Fox they gave me they gave me
all the obvious ones you know so you have a catch at the sideline and they ruled it incomplete
and you see he's got control here and he goes one two three and out of bounds and they ruled it
incomplete so then I'd come on and say yeah oh hey that's a catch you got three feet down and
then Twitter would say oh Captain Obvious you're really adding a lot to the
to the broadcast it's no winning i really love twitter but then after i got all those easy ones
they're like going hey pereira's 34 for 34 well of course i would be they didn't give me the tough
ones and then they so about year three they said okay enough of that we're not going to put you
unless you can add something so then then I just got like all the...
That was a real conversation, though?
Yeah.
And then I got all the tough ones.
And then if they didn't do what I said they should do,
then people jumped on my ass and said I was wrong.
Why all of a sudden are the officials right then when they do it?
Or New York is right, making the decisions.
Do officials have beef with you?
Huh? Do officials have beef? Is huh do officials have beef is there any officials that sometimes you know seriously you have to have
a big ego to do that to officiate because you get abuse all the time all the time and you're right
you said when you walk out in the field you have no friends and you get less friends as the game
goes on people hate you even more there There's nothing positive about it. So
you have to have a big ego to take, you know, to handle that. And so if you say they're wrong,
they have a hard time agreeing that you're wrong. That's a personal attack. And they're not so bad
with me because I did it. I mean, I officiated on the field, and then I ran the program for essentially 12 years.
So I know it.
And I never use what I call bad words if they miss something.
I never say blown, horrible.
I don't say that at all.
Those are trigger words.
Those are trigger words.
And so, I mean, I respect them.
They're my guys, and I know how tough it is.
And what hurts them, though, and what used to make me mad, too,
is when guys that have never done it before just lash out at you.
Like me or Bruce.
You go, you suck, and you want to go, you couldn't even kick the ball 20 yards.
You want to go back at them.
But, you know, when somebody hasn't done it, it's hard to take the abuse.
Have you seen the hockey refs?
They do chirp.
I love the hockey refs.
They chirp back.
I love the hockey refs.
Yeah, they, like, talk shit.
They're like, you know.
Oh, my God, they're unbelievable.
Yeah.
I wish I could do that.
A guy named Steve Walkham is their head of officiating.
Love him.
He's, like, he's tough.
He was one of the refs, too.
And it's like it's open season.
I mean, they F-bomb each other. I would have loved to have done that to a few
coaches. Bruce Arians who's currently in the lead
is one of them. We got a new club. Four balls left.
With a piping
shot to a deeper hole.
What a bomb from Mike Pereira.
16 points there, 88. Now we're making some plays.
Now we're making some plays, Mike. Down with Tebow. Tebow's down.
Get him off the board now. Drip that name off the board.
I'm not going to be here for long. I want to see my name on the board.
Get it off. Oh, Mike, who do I got next? It's Tim Te long. I want to see my name on the board. Get it off of me. Oh, I'm right.
Who do I got next?
It's Tim T.
That's Marquette King.
He's meat.
He's dead.
I'm working my way to work, Carissa.
You already have, Mark.
You have 88.
He actually is.
I have 88?
Yes, you have 88.
That's 86.
You are currently right below Harrison Phillips,
one spot away from Carissa Thompson,
which I know is big for you.
So let's go ahead and make
that happen, Mike. Come on.
Get your little stroke going. Let's go. Portuguese
golfer. Let's fucking make it happen.
I thought Arians might be back.
Checking
his surroundings like a ninja
Mike Pereira.
He's lining it up now.
We're on the back nine here.
Three balls left.
Eye it down, Mike.
Just like a putt there, cuzzy.
Come on.
Ball has a tendency to go left.
Hey, Mike, you're an electric human being, man.
An electric human being.
88.
After lining it up, it's pin-seeking.
Pump, pump.
Pump, pump.
Oh, a little short there.
You get a good bounce.
You probably would have got a little bit more.
Only eight points there.
You're at 90.
I got it in the thing and only eight points?
Well, it was on the outside of the thing.
You see, if you get a deeper of the thing, you get more points.
You still got two balls left, though.
You're sitting pretty here to take at least third place.
You're 14 away from here.
You get it. 54.
Oh, the big stick's coming out. Is that what we're thinking here?
Oh, a
couple of little side eyes there from
Mike Pereira. I think he's up to something.
Possibly cooking right now.
He's brought out the big stick!
Mike Pereira's going long!
Two balls left!
The old bird box in New Orleans
Bruce Arians said you're all terrible take your anger
out on the ball hit it so far to the wall where are you going man I thought
we're gonna get mad at the ball I thought we're gonna hit the hell out of
it we're going down now what just was that fault? Excuse me. Is that because of me? I was trying to get you
mad there.
I told you what my goal was.
Okay, alright.
I want to be next to Carissa.
I know this is strategy. Alright, I got it.
There's certain things like,
I have no future with Bruce Arians.
I think you do
actually, you just don't know it yet.
He's coaching for Tampa again.
I would love to hear his press conferences.
We got Mike Pereira over there in the fucking TV booth.
Okay, how many points do I have?
You have 96 points right now.
Question is, do I want to be below or above Carissa?
That's a great question.
We're going to learn a lot about you, Mike,
right here in these next couple of shots.
We're about to learn a lot about you, Mike, right here in these next couple of shots. We're about to learn a lot about you.
Oh, that was poor.
Old Portuguese Pereira coming through.
Two balls left.
He's going back to the original strategy.
Oh, that's a great shot.
That is a great shot.
16 points.
You're at 112.
You are right on top of Carissa Thompson, That's a great shot. That is a great shot. 16 points, you're at 112.
You are right on top of Carissa Thompson, well below Bruce Arians though, Mike.
Well below.
Hey, you can catch, yes.
Yes you can, Mike.
Mike, think I have no strategy?
You, I think you can, Mike.
There is energy coming.
Mike Pereira has a chance to hit a 50-bomb to take the lead here for charity,
which is what you're all about.
This is for charity.
$10,000 to charity here, Mike Pereira.
You give scholarships to vets.
B.A. on this.
B.A.
Badass Bruce Arians. What else could B.A. Badass Bruce Arians.
What else could B.A. stand for
for him?
His nickname whenever he was a child was
S.Q. Smooth. Esquire Smooth.
Really? He still wears the Kangol
New Era hats. Okay,
Carissa, I'm guaranteed unless
I put Bruce Arians
on top of you.
Bruce Arians has been on top of Carissa here
for at least a day, something you should think about.
Checking the shaft.
That a boy.
Okay, baby.
I think it's a great shaft.
A strong shaft, a long shaft.
Bruce Arians gave me the shaft many times.
And he pipes it,
laying right in the middle of that hole.
Oh, my God.
It might happen, Mike.
142 points.
You only got 30 there.
Heartbreaker for Mike Pereira.
Heartbreaker just like for Drew Brees in the NFC Championship game
when the refs refused to call pass interference.
That is what just happened to Mike Pereira.
I think I got screwed the same way.
Mike, second place still garners a $2,500 check to charity,
so you're still in a good position.
You're above Carissa,
but Bruce Arians is definitely
right there on top of you.
Like, I feel like most of
your relationship with him.
This has been a beautiful situation.
Mike, what a show you put on.
30 points. I should have
followed your advice. I tried to help.
I didn't care. Then I wouldn't have been over Carissa.
Yeah, look, you ended up in the
perfect spot. It's you and a D-lineman from the Buffalo Bills surrounding,
and then Bruce Arians right there on top of you.
And another one, what a gentleman, honestly.
What an absolute gentleman, Mike Pereira.
Incredible performance out of you.
Thank you very much.
And I mean that.
You're probably the most hilarious human I've ever encountered in my life.
You haven't encountered many people then.
I am a little bit of a...
I should have bounced the ball in like that guy did.
You guys here, they were throwing balls.
They're like, they call this toss golf, your guys here.
They don't, they're like two chicken to grab a club and hit a ball.
We've been here for three days, Mike.
There's been a lot of clubs.
We've been posted up here for like eight hours a day for three days.
We're about sick of the...
Why don't you come out to my three-piece football game today?
You can punt the ball.
Okay.
I would love to.
I wasn't invited, obviously.
I invited you to my thing.
You didn't invite me to your thing.
But that three-piece suit game is something for charity, if you would like to look right here.
What is it for?
What do you do?
We actually have a foundation that we give scholarships to veterans to become sports officials in their communities.
We started it two years ago. Awesome. foundation that we give scholarships to veterans to become sports officials in their communities.
We started it two years ago. Awesome. And we've got 183 vets now that are refereeing all different sports from hockey to soccer and Rochester, New York to San Diego, California. You know,
I found that and I really kind of figured this out a little too late. I wish I'd have figured
it out when I was still working for the NFL. But veterans can make great officials because they don't have any fear, for one thing.
Well, and they're used to making decisions.
Well, and, you know, they had to concentrate.
It's teamwork, you know, fearless, all that stuff that makes good officials.
And so we started this program.
And, I mean, and hopefully in a few years we'll have some guys that will actually move on to the NFL.
So we're having this game today in Atlanta.
It's going to be great.
Three-piece football.
Everybody wears suits.
I'm reffing it.
And the money goes to, I guess maybe because the game sponsors Tito's Vodka.
So that's another thing that attracted me to it.
Yeah, it's the vodka.
But so all the proceeds go to Pets for Vets and to our foundation,
Battlefields to Ballfield ball field. Well incredible work
The Portuguese man with a black belt on I was about to question everything Brown Bell
Yeah, I was about to say a brown. Yeah
Wait, let's just do it this way
This is
Can we just put it like that?
Can you tell I know if your cardboard I don't know if your cardboard is I don't know if your cardboard is worthy of what just happened there.
Are you leaving?
I mean, where are you going?
Mike, there's literally a seat right here, Mike.
I know, but I just want to.
Oh, yeah, how about that?
You sign lefty, swung righty, the ambidextrous.
I'm an official.
I was always confused.
How's your jumper?
You shoot well?
Oh, horrible.
You said you...
Horrible.
Here, you want us to do this?
Yes.
We'll move Timmy Tebow down for you.
Marquette goes down.
We have a new silver medalist here at the Wrangler Celebrity Shootout.
You'll be up here, though.
You're up here. Oh. You're up on the...
Oh.
We can do this for you if you'd like.
If you'd like, man.
Yeah, but you can...
No.
No, put her back.
Yeah, it doesn't work.
It's a real shame.
Thought we could help you out there.
Is this too much for you?
No, no, no.
I think you're doing great.
Look at you. Right where you needed to be.
I mean, we look good together.
We do.
All right, that's it for the Wrangler Celebrity Charity Shoot-Up.
Probably my new favorite human, to be honest.
I wish they sold ref jerseys.
Mike Pereira.
That was fun.
