Hello beautiful people and welcome back to our humble abode the Thunderdome on this overreaction Monday May 19th
2025 this program begins now. Sports are happening all around us what a weekend of sports now obviously
we're fresh off a four-day weekend because the PGA Championship had taken over ESPN's airwaves Thursday
Friday Saturday and Sunday on CBS in the afternoon watching absolute magic happen. Scotty Scheffler wins again. Now pause
for a moment and just understand that this guy who was described as a bag of
milk, a guy with no personality, a guy who if he's the face of golf, golf is gonna
be in a bad place. People were saying those actual things. AJ Hawk actually
sure said those things at one point he goes the guys got no pizzazz
I believe this one this guy has found pizzazz and doesn't need pizzazz watching him golf is
Absolutely spectacular what he does to a golf course with a golf ball
Is just something that I understand that Tiger Woods took over the world whenever he was golfing and Sunday Red and his electricity and everything
Like that and I understand way back, Jack was the guy.
I understand all that stuff.
What this guy does on such a consistent basis is absurd.
I think he's missed four cuts in like seven years.
I forget what it is.
Four years.
Yeah, four years.
The guy has missed four cuts.
Like what he has accomplished,
shots Kyle Porter, by the way, doing a lot of research.
Yeah.
This weekend, seeing a lot of Kyle Porter tweets this weekend.
We appreciate the hell out of you
making the sports world better.
45 top fives over the last four years.
18 wins, three majors, two players, one gold medal,
four miscuts, 75 million in on course money that he has won.
Now granted 141 weeks at world number one
is obviously not the best.
Tiger had it for like however many years or whatever it is.
And I'm sure Scotty is well on his way to do that. He is the one everybody thought maybe you know
Jordan would do this everybody thought maybe Rory would do this everybody thought maybe Brooks would do this everybody thought maybe Rambo
Would do this maybe
They all got a lot of money go play in another league and that not Rory
But obviously you when you talk about D. Shambow not Rory, but obviously when you talk about DeShambo,
and you talk about Rambo, and you talk about Dustin Johnson, you talk about a lot of great golfers,
and I assume Scottie Scheffler was also offered $300 million, $400 million to go to live. He turned
that down to stay the course at the PGA. I know the PGA Tour is obviously very thankful for that,
but the game of golf as a whole should be incredibly thankful that we get to watch this
guy golf every single weekend basically throughout the rest of the summer and what he did down there in
coil hollow great name great course difficult conditions was nothing short of marvelous and on
sunday you know championship sunday there was so much going on there was a game seven in the mba
i was watching oklahoma city in denver battle bum boom, boom, boom. Let's go see what's going
on in the golf. I go over there. Holy hell. Liv is making a run
at this thing. DeChambeau is going. Rambo is back. We asked
this last Wednesday. Does Rambo even golf anymore? Have we seen
Rambo? He does. He was back in it. He was pressing Scottie
Sheffield on Sunday who had a five stroke lead going in.
Didn't have his best start. His driver was going way left seemingly every single time. It was a grind Rambo's gonna get him
Then Rambo tin cup that day he did he finished bogey double bogey double bogey
Oh, yikes Scottie Scheffler ends up winning by like six strokes whenever it was a tight one the entire time
That's 16, old buddy, you got to bogeys that. Then you know what 17 need to make up for
it because Rambo's not gonna give it up. He's got a three stroke lead on it. What are you
gonna do? Well I'm gonna go for this thing. Well you're gonna put it in the water. Okay
that's immediately gonna put you behind. He would double bogey 17, then he would double
bogey 18 and he would inevitably end up in like eighth place or something like that.
Shout out to Ram making a run. Shout out to Ron being back, shout out to Ron going
for it, but also shout out to Scottie Scheffler being an absolute monster as a
golfer and putting golf on his back basically. Yeah. Okay he obviously went to
jail last year about a year ago at this exact time. He's obviously been a part of
some storylines, he's obviously been a part of greatness, but whenever he's
golfing and whenever his name is on that little marquee right there,
it is worthy of a watch because he's not flashy, seemingly very calm all the time.
Say he tries to stay in a moment.
Now on Saturday with a multiple stroke lead at a major, he stuck around and fixed his grip.
So I think this guy is a psycho when it comes to golf.
This is fully consumed him.
He plays super cool whenever he's reacting.
But if you're working on your grip for a couple hours
after already having a six stroke league
and having the best day that anybody's had on that course,
you're a psycho.
You are all in, you are fully committed.
And after he wins this thing, he takes it in,
cause he knew he didn't have his best stuff,
throws that down and what'd he say right here?
That looked like a fuck yeah to me.
That looked like a fuck.
So I want to let you know, Scotty. I appreciate you letting the moment get to you
I appreciate you showcasing your emotions. I showcase you be I appreciate you showcasing being a human and
We appreciate the hell out of you Scotty
What a tournament that was why we're off Thursday Friday then his family obviously and then in the scoring table where he has to sign it
He had to give a couple things to distract his kid.
Very relatable.
I mean, like everything he did this weekend was awesome.
And we got four day weekend out of it,
which was pretty nice.
We hope you guys had a great four days,
but there's a lot going on.
That's nine year NFL vet.
Ladies and gentlemen, Daris J. Butler is here.
What'd you say, D-Bud?
No, it was just good to see Bryson stick around, congratulate him.
I know they're both Texas guys, but you know, like a lot of guys just get the hell out of there.
I won't say lose.
Keegan's not down.
He lost, he kind of stunk it up down the stretch as well, but he stuck around,
I think that was like an hour maybe after he was done, did some interviews,
and then gave him a good tap, man.
But yeah, Scottie's an absolute dog, absolute weapon.
He does, even as you're in here, getting into the slightest bit of pocket.
Good call D-Bucks.
Good call, it's a big weekend for me.
BJ Tour social media has seemingly really,
now Grannis, thank you for the love,
but a lot of the shit I've been seeing,
I don't know if it's my algorithm showing me
or if it's more stuff that I'm liking,
they showed a behind view.
What I've been, I've been always worried
about the left arm.
I've always, I got the left arm. I've always worried.
I got a, I got a, that's a right hand drag.
That's coming out of pocket right now.
I watched this video 50 times and I was like, seems like the right arm is doing a lot more than what I ever gave it credit for.
So obviously I stopped in here at the sim this weekend. After watching this video baby girl goes down to sleep. I'm like babe I
gotta go over to Thunderdome real quick. I gotta work on this. I tell you what I
might be back. I might be back. I was hitting that thing. I was making
solid contact. PXGs were sending straight. Didn't have the sim on because once
getting sent to the board. But there is a space for me to hit into.
The right hand looks like that's what you need. I think you
got it. Come out of pocket. It looks good. I think you need to get in the slot. The
what? The slot. Yeah, I like those slots. Yeah, slot. I like to get in that slot.
Golf is amazing. Yeah. Captivates everybody. I assume this number is gonna be
gigantic, especially with the live boys making a run, which I thought you
were gonna talk about. You put over D. Shambow. Obviously. He's a live guy youtuber
He's YouTube is fantastic. His content is great. He's good for golf wish he was back
In the PG I've come full circle on this. Yeah, you have yeah big time cuz these I mean you saw he was number one
In the highest paid athletes Christiano Ronaldo 275 million bucks. He's playing for one team in Saudi Arabia
Yeah, can't trust everything to 75 in a year
I think so. Yeah
Yeah, again can't change everything from there. Yeah, you're right that particular site does make things up
And also, how do you know how much money people are making every time anybody's value or worth is put on the internet
That's a projection a guess by most people Scotty
I think D. Shambow was up there was up there, 100 million. So like Dustin Johnson, Rombo,
D Chambeau,
Brooks,
Bava, Brooks,
these dudes being offered
hundreds of millions of dollars,
in my eyes, I'm like,
you gotta take that.
Like you have to take that.
What we didn't realize is that we
literally never see him golf again.
Like that was,
I don't think I knew that that was
around the corner. I think a lot of golf people were saying hey you need to think
about this from a bigger picture here these dudes are gone and I remember
there was a time where they weren't even gonna play in the majors and the majors
like nah we ain't playing this game we're gonna let them in there so thank
God for the majors getting a share they said but we were literally asking on
Wednesday does Rom even golf anymore and then all of a sudden we see him making a
run at on a Sunday it's like okay, good to see you back. Now he's just playing 54 holes.
Yeah. And he even quoted at the end saying, man, that was fun. It was good to be back.
It was good to be back in an actual tournament. It was fun. It was good.
It is. Yes, he did. Here he is. Here he is. Here he is.
John, you played a hell of a round of golf today and some tough breaks down the stretch.
Just how close did it feel to being really special? You played a hell of a round of golf today and some tough breaks down the stretch.
Just how close did it feel to being really special?
It was very close.
God, it's been a while since I had that much fun on the golf course.
It's 15 holes, 15 holes.
Even the first seven of the day where I was swinging well and things just
weren't happening, but I kept myself in there and make the parts that I needed and then
play really good golf from the eighth to the fifteenth.
It's just mistakes around the green.
That bunker shot on 14, I thought I landed it what I needed to.
It's just a softer bounce and a misread and then what to say about 15. It's great to golf again. And yeah, the last three holes is
Feels like a pill to swallow right now. Yeah, he feels like that is what he says
Go to talk stay by boss Connor at Ty Schmidt. We're all kind of on the same page
You got to do what you got to do Rambo also humble beginnings from Spain comes over here golfs in this entire thing
He's offered two hundred and fifty three hundred million. Whatever it is
It's like you got to do what you got to do at that exact moment, but it's great to see him golfing.
D'Chambeau, every time he pops up at a major, Reebok, interesting sponsor, them trying to make
the comeback sweet. Him also saying, he buried golf balls. I'm hitting the same golf balls as
these other people that don't hit the ball as well. He's making new clubs, he's making new golf balls,
obviously his YouTube, his content is great, But seeing them golf together was awesome this weekend
And I think I understand why all the golf community was so negative towards us being like they got to take the money
They got to take the money and the golf community was like we're never gonna see these guys. We really haven't
I don't know how they get that fix legitimately
Me neither and the thing that sucks them like guys like DJ like they had their run early on and they're still fun to
Watch but like anytime he plays in a major you look at the leaderboard. He misses the cut and it's like he's 12 over
It's like was he playing left-handed like did what I mean, what the hell is he doing?
But Rom like the lasting image we had never he won the Masters
We had him on the show and then right after that he went to live
So like he went like he left when it was like oh
He's about to go we're about to have Romper Scotty
Verse Rory every single week, and then he did he left and we didn't hear anything about I mean
I guess the good thing for him is he gets to fly to Hong Kong this week and try to you know get a live victory
You know so that's that's nice, but yeah, but hopefully they're playing that new Morgan Wallen. Yeah, sure album
37 songs a heat by the way with an interlude in an intro. So I guess 35 plus songs
Absolutely, maybe they'll play Big Sky there Parker McCall
Snoop Dogg's easy to crime brand new album is a lot of new music was dropped over the weekend great music
Morgan you just you can just go ahead and listen to that
Whatever three hours. Yeah straight of that entire thing bangers. These are the crime with Snoop
We got a couple bops in there big sky Parker McCallum who was doing big time rodeo diner and down. Yeah, absolutely
Hopefully they're playing that down at Hong Kong, right, you know cuz I think they will be I think that's wrong
It's biggest ordeal is the same as me hard to find live then whenever we find it
biggest ordeal is the same as me. Hard to find Liv, then whenever we find it, it's like, why is DJ Khaled screaming we the best while this guy is trying to win a fucking golf game?
Yeah, right. There has to be. I understand we want to go against the green and we want to change them.
Golf for louder. Yeah, I get it. They got golf pretty much figured out, you know. We don't need
the Mickey Mouse shit on the screen. I don't need music playing. If they want to wear shorts, cool.
I don't care about the shorts. Do the shorts. Sure. But the whole other thing, it's like tough to take. We're far enough in now. It's not the players'
fault. It's Liv's fault. They need to make it more fun to watch. They need to make it so people actually give a shit.
They're tournaments. No one cares to watch. No one knows who wins. No one knows anything. So going into this, the only one
in the Liv Tour I cared about was Bryson DeChambeau. Now thankfully, Rom's still playing pretty good golf.
So he, you know, made up for that this weekend. But it's their fault. I don't think it's the players fault at all.
Agreed. How about Shotgun Start? Yeah. We're watching the end of that thing. And obviously,
Scottie doesn't tee off till 2.40 or whatever, which is when CBS' coverage starts. So congrats
to CBS getting that. Yeah. But watching Scottie follow Rombo, who's two holes ahead, and then see,
like that is a part of watching golf.
That's a part of the watching golf experience.
It adds the drama to it.
Yeah, but what we call a guy on 17, he's coming around.
You know, he's got to finish on 14.
It's like, okay, dude, at what point do you just acknowledge
that maybe this hasn't been the best rollout?
Because the golfers are obviously electrifying.
Bingo, exactly.
DeChambeau's one of the most electrifying golfers on earth.
Now, nobody's more electrifying than Scottie Scheffler, but like DeChambeau is one of the most electrifying golfers on earth. Now nobody's more electrifying than Scottie Scheffler, but like DeChambeau
is must watch. Sure. And somehow that hasn't happened. Yeah, still, I mean still so
early on, if you think about any type of league, any type of legacy league, like if
you go and have an NFL, you can take eight of the top quarterbacks, it's gonna be
tough to get us to actually go and watch it and take it serious in all the
production shit. True. Aside from it, so you do have the best players in the world the majors
I think the majors are now a much bigger draw
I know at least for me to watch these guys and it is getting easier to find live
You know now with the Fox deal another thing, but like I say just Fox now. Yeah
Looked it up the Hong Kong open
Starts at 12 a.m. Okay, so I run yeah
I don't mind the world global this stuff cuz WWE obviously doesn't and when you go over there and you experience
It's like these fans deserve it like yes fans deserve us to be here and scheduled at their time
So I don't mind that with live with how international they are but to ROM's point
It's like it's hard to take it serious, especially with golf with how much history and prestige which I don't think we take the money. There's what I kept saying
I mean still take
Rob but I think he's finished top ten in every live event like you said most
We had no idea. Yeah, he's still playing good golf Bryson. We know he's playing good golf
You know the the more growth in the YouTube golfers like Scotty
He just played with Grant, you know grant a few weeks ago
So the more we see these guys and obviously the more we see him playing against each other
That's what we all want. Hopefully been hearing that they're gonna get figured out then hearing that it's not gonna get figured out
Some deals going on right now in the Middle East, right? Yeah
Baby, this would be a part of the let's get that done as well for the good of the game,
for the good of golf, for the whole good.
But PGA, I mean, this is the whole reason.
Crown Prince, God bless him.
God bless him.
Big Turkey.
God bless him.
I understand what we did with Liv, but let's make it watchable.
I think that would be cool.
How much money you've invested in the thing, let's make it watchable.
One marquee event that people care about.
Just give us one a year.
That's the start and they don't even have that year and they've had plenty of time to
build that.
That'll never happen though.
I mean the majors are the majors because of how the history and everything like that.
No, there's elevated events now.
Of course.
Yeah, no one gives a shit about it.
We are talking about the PGA now because of what lived it like let's not forget
Right what the PGA was that we didn't know about during it out
Everyone has to pay their own way if you don't make the cut you make no money
You're actually losing thousands of dollars because your stay like that was all very
Legitimate things and the part that does set the tie brought up like the last thing you remember of ROM winning the major
The last thing you remember about Cam Smith and him winning over
in England. Yeah, like how awesome all that he was gone immediately after that. But like
the entire live thing worked because of the business, like because of the money and to
change the PGA. Like what live did for golf in general was great, but now it's come full circle now where
it's like, hey, the PGA now operates the way it should.
Everyone's getting paid.
Everyone's getting more money.
You can get your tour card and then you can make money.
The elevated events with more money in the pool and with sometimes when those larger
guys aren't in it, it gives other dudes opportunities.
So the Liv thing as a whole was a complete
success. It's just the the the tournaments themselves don't matter as much. But I mean,
you brought up the game seven on Sunday, like if there isn't a major on on Sunday and it's
just a normal PGA Tour event without everybody in it, it wouldn't have had that like, hey,
let me go check it out unless we found out, hey hey they're on the 15th hole and it's a one stroke leader three guys are tied like you're not
turning over to the PGA tour. See I disagree with you. I'll have golf on in the
background Saturday Sunday. Always. I just have it playing in the background. Sure.
You know like I just now granted having somebody that I know his name on there
boy that certainly helps because if I. You wouldn't turn it on if, boy, that certainly helps. Because if I-
You wouldn't have turned it on
if Vegas was still at the top.
Johnny Vegas?
Yeah, that's what I mean.
Like background, background.
Background, background, background.
That's all I'm talking about.
But PGA Championship-
But Scottie's always on that list on Sunday.
Yeah, but Scottie's playing in all these things, though.
The guy is like committed to the game.
Yeah, but you're locked in on the PGA,
like background noise in PGA Championship,
like you're watching every single shot.
It's a major agreed completely
But if they have a good leaderboard on any of them, which I think if the live golfers were around would be a much more
Prevalent type for sure. I think would be good. So why don't they go shake each other's hands, please?
Go shake each other's hands
And if you need to make up for the money that needs to be given out to Rory and Scotty and all these other guys
Figure it out feels like you can do. Golf is awesome whenever it's rolling.
Now you talk about the NBA, Denver Nuggets just get run out of the fucking gym.
Yeah, that's dumb. Oklahoma City just does it. Congrats Oklahoma City. They are the
odds-on favorites to win the NBA title. Now seven straight years of a new
champion is what the NBA is talking about as they should all the way back to
the Toronto Raptors if you do recall in
2019 having a big-time win for all of Canada remember that I'm
Celebrating all that then it goes to the Lakers then the Bucs obviously the bubble for the Lakers and the Bucs remember that you honest
Dreams of those days still the Warriors nuggets Celtics and then who will it be this year? I don't think
Oklahoma City
Minnesota in Indianapolis or Indiana have it won and then theicks have it won since like 1973 or something like that.
I forget the exact date, it's been a long time.
So obviously all these cities are going to be fully invested, all these cities are going to be incredibly excited.
All these cities know that parade season could be just about a month away.
That's right.
Oklahoma City vs. Minnesota Timberwolves, SGA vs versus Ant, I can't wait to watch both of these crowds
do what they do.
That Oklahoma City crowd feels like a college crowd.
It feels like a college crowd whenever they're,
in the way they, you know,
cause everybody does a white out or a blue out or whatever.
The way that they do what the colleges does,
with the striping of the thing,
and then all everybody bought in,
it's like, I love the atmosphere at okc
I love the way that team kind of buys into it a lot of people hating this team
A lot of people do not like this okc team small market had a great year
SGA's big smock like the way he is at home green you would think they'd be very affable people hate the city thunder
Why is there I think it's because I get home great big part of this chat. I think it's also the foul merchant stuff
Yeah for SGA and then
Hartenstein I believe yeah Caruso's a dog
I love watching this team play and if you run Joker in that Denver Nuggets team
Even if Gordon has pulled hamstring out of the gym
I think you've warranted everybody's respect and then you think about the Minnesota team, Ant has become like the guy.
Everybody enjoys watching him play.
Everybody enjoys the way he operates.
Not everybody, I guess, but a majority of sports fans
are like, this guy's a dog.
We love to watch him play basketball.
Then Randall, obviously the trade for the New York Knicks,
he's become a massive weapon for this Minnesota team.
And then if you think about the sale of the team
with A-Rod and them getting involved,
it's like storylines galore, congrats to Minnesota.
Then let's go to the East.
East is a
Rivalry that I don't know if a lot of people know goes back a long long time
Michael Cole who's obviously a diehard New York Knicks fan a guy that I get to work alongside it for Monday Night Raw Goat in
The commentator world as a whole certainly in the wrestling world. He said I did some research
Do you know the New York Knicks lead the all time series 124 to 122 or something.
Wow.
Yes.
That is the all time series between them.
In the playoffs, we lead the series.
I think it's like five to two or something like that.
I forget what it is.
Obviously everybody remembers Reggie Miller and Spike Lee
in the years of the past for the Pacers.
And obviously with the Knicks teams.
And it's like middle of America
taking on the coastal elite, biggest city in the world.
It's a great storyline, it's a great dynamic.
And then you add in this video that we saw from the weekend.
Oh, nah.
Oh!
Oh!
Nah.
Oh! Yo! Oh Everybody saw that video
Captivate the entire internet and obviously the entire city of New York got buried for like what a bunch of scumbags
That was a conversation my conversation was who was this man that was willing to stare down
a hundred some people in the streets of New York just days before the Eastern
Conference finals between the New York Knicks and the Indiana Pacers well
ladies and gentlemen we found him New York firefight, Hans Pare. How are you man?
How you doing guys?
I'm good man, I made it out.
Yes, you certainly did.
We appreciate you joining us here.
Can I just ask, you're a Pacers, was this a rage bait type thing?
You were trying to bait these people into this?
Are you a Pacers fan?
How did you become a Pacers fan in New York City?
I'm a Pacers fan for life man. They just they got my heart when I was a kid, you know
And I just stuck with them ever since I've been I loved Reggie Miller O'Neal or Ted Steven Jackson Pacers
Then Danny Granger came along love the Danny Granger Pacers that Paul George came along love the poor George Pacers
Oh Deep okay, love the old a deep old Pacers
Now we're here with the Halliburton Pacers man the Hallib poor George Pacers. Oh, the depot, K love the old depot Pacers. And now we're here with the Halliburton Pacers, man.
The Halliburton Pacers, we're gonna get those Knicks, man.
We gotta get them.
I love that.
I love everything about it.
What were you thinking was gonna happen
whenever you went out there?
Were you walking home or how'd you kind of find yourself
in that situation?
Oh man, the in-laws, my in-laws live about
roughly 20 blocks away around West 50th Street.
So I was dropping the kids off.
My daughter had a basketball tournament the next day.
I was working.
Couldn't make it.
So in-laws were taking them.
I said, you know what?
I've been wearing my jersey all playoffs long.
I've been supporting my Pacers.
I've been wearing it all over.
I haven't went by Madison Square Garden with the jersey.
So I said, you know, I'm not going to go, I don't know if I can go into the mob, but
I'm going to go close by, feel the energy, you know, get ready for the series, you know, make the series
even better when the Pacers beat the Knicks.
But I know, I wanna feel this, you know, I wanna feel this, you know.
Last year, game seven, Pacers-Knicks, I was there, I was at the garden, I had tickets,
I was there with the Pacers jersey, you know, they were a little nicer, it wasn't a Friday
night, you know, but Now this year they got me
Were you panicked a little bit in there or not? Cuz I did some research on you obviously you're a firefighter
But also I believe you're oh, you have a little sweet science background
Were you nervous in there what did you what were your thoughts as it was kind of all happening?
All right, you know at fun at first it was like dudes just talking smacks to me it was a little fun you know dudes are just going back forth but then it
started getting a little you know a little more handsy dudes got dudes wanted the jersey they said
the jersey got to come off so then I started getting a little nervous I'm looking where's the
nearest police you know who's gonna save me anybody here to save me you know then the mob
started getting bigger and bigger and bigger
I'm trying to just walk. I was just trying to walk. I'm gonna let me stay calm
Let me walk. Let me walk
I know if I run who knows what that turns into I seen that movie before when you run
I'm gonna trip me and someone you know could get worse. So I just try to walk
I was like, let me stay calm. Let me just tell guys calm down to the series. Did it start yet?
Come on trying to say whatever I can to Bobby sometime
How did you get out of there? How did you gather cuz we don't see the video obviously after that
How did they just stop they got tired your boxing background the cardio wore him out. What was it?
No, it wasn't nobody the cardio maybe but I just kept I just kept going. I just kept walking
I just kept saying calm down cuz right there. Yeah, it pans away
You can't look like I just got swallowed into the mob, but I just go I keep walking. I'm like, oh man, I see some cop cars up that way
Maybe if I could just make it next block
I should be maybe hopefully fine and then I just try to keep walking keep walking try to stay calm
You know just pushing those hands off my jersey blocking. I got a mid book. They're still got it. It's still got the jersey
Okay, we still got the jersey

I know that's a hectic, crazy time.
And I appreciate the way you handled that.

Alright, boom! Made magic.
We appreciate you, Hans. Tyrese, you're the man for this.
Tyrese actually was the one that hit me up and said,
Hey, can we find this guy?
And that's why I put out the tweet that was like,
Somebody find this man.
And with the, you know, there's a lot of drawbacks of the internet.
There's a lot of drawbacks of things.
But being able to find you, Tyrese was the one that wanted me to drawbacks of the internet. There's a lot of drawbacks of things but being able to find you Ty Reese was the one
that wanted me to basically put out the search and
Whenever I think it was one of your co-workers
I believe said hey
I know this guy and then Bruce Brown went on the hunt started sending messages
The fact that we were able to find you is a gift from the internet and the fact that you are putting on for the Pacers
Is good for our team as we head into the Easter conference finals
We appreciate the hell out of both of you
Yes, I appreciate it, bro
So pumped that we got a chance to connect those two this morning Hans dog
Absolute dog and obviously he's a firefighter in New York. He's been a Pacer fan his entire life
I think he doesn't shy away from potentially talking shit, you know to people especially if you're gonna be a Pacerser in New York. He's been a Pacer fan his entire life. I think he doesn't shy away from potentially talking shit,
you know, to people, especially if you're gonna be
a Pacers fan in New York City,
surrounded by New York Knicks fans.
Him saying he didn't expect it to get that wild,
just trying to keep his calm, keep his cool.
Once again, I appreciate everything about him.
And a lot of people say, New York City's trash,
whatever, it's like, I think you could find a lot of cities
that would have people that would potentially react in the same way.
Maybe not throwing trash back, but certainly talking shit in their entirety. The Knicks and Pacers are a great rivalry.
Obviously, we want to keep everything, you know, above board. It's not making anybody get injured, but a good rivalry.
And Hans being in our building is going to be a beautiful thing. Shout out to Tyrese Halliburton trying to make that all happen. Yeah.
Awesome.
Now, while we were running that, ladies and gentlemen, something massive happened out of the NFL.
Oh, really?
Massive.
Now, the NFL league meetings are going to take place Wednesday, Thursday, I believe,
and we'll have Ian Rappaport join us here in a matter of moments to chit chat about everything that's going to go down over there.
But the Philadelphia Eagles have signed their head coach Nick Sirianni to an extension
Wow, all right
Congratulations, Pizan!
Congratulations, obviously there was a lot of people mocking him and calling for his head basically
This guy's not one of us. This guy's a bum. This guy needs to get the hell out of town
This guy's spending too much time yelling at the fans as opposed to coaching players
This guy's acting like a child behind the scenes.
But then you watch the way that team came together
and you watch the way the team has rallied around him
and you watch the way the team prepares
and the way the team plays with him as the head coach.
You think to yourself,
maybe this guy isn't some big dumb dipshit.
Maybe this guy's a good football coach.
Dad was a ball coach,
obviously grew up in the entirety of it all.
What he's done for Philadelphia,
I think is match the personality of the team.
And I think the city even is starting to realize this
guy matches the personality of our city as well. This is when things kind of come
together perfectly. Yeah, you said matching the personality. That's the perfect way to
put it because it's so many different now with all the behind the scenes stuff
that we see with different coaches and different teams from across sports. You
can just see that everybody kind of goes about it their own way and the way that
he goes about it obviously the guys buy into it year in a year out and this year was different this year you bring Saquon over you lean on a run game
heavily you get the explosive plays from a majority run game some of your receivers may
have to sacrifice him being a receiver guy formerly here in a lot of other places and he's just been
perfect man you talked about the a lot of talking heads calling for his head and then now we are
going into the next season he's a a Super Bowl champ, getting an extension,
well deserved from Nick Sirianni
and everybody over there in Philly, man, I love this.
You talk about breaking in Saquon Barkley
and obviously Howie and Jeff and everybody
and Bradley Cooper got to agree to these deals.
Drafted, and the exciting whites in the back
is also hilarious.
Cooper picks, by the way.
Yeah, absolutely.
Bradley Cooper actually made the pick of all that.
So gave a motivational speech on the field before the boys went out and routed
the incredible Kansas City Chiefs. But having a brand new player come into your team
and take over the offense when you've already max paid two guys that are wide receivers,
like that could be a tough task for a coach to keep a locker room together.
Especially you talk about sacrificing targets. It's like AJ Brown, Devontae Smith, they're already sacrificing targets for each other. Now they come in and
we're going to be a run first team. It's like the coach has to keep everybody together.
And guess who were the ones that dumped the Gatorade on Nick Sirianni after he won the
Super Bowl? It was AJ Brown, Devontae Smith, the wide receivers who he had to rally and
keep invested because we've all seen that these aren't Madden scores and Madden players
playing on teams. These are actual humans who worry about their legacy. They worry about their future contracts.
They worry about their targets. They worry about their success. They worry about how much they matter to the team
because if you don't matter to the team, you're a piece of gum, they will cut your ass.
So whenever wide receivers get a little greedy and say, I want the ball, I want the ball, I want the ball,
it's always a negative thing. But these guys are trying to build their careers. These guys are trying not to get cut.
These guys are trying to get their next contracts as
well so him being able to navigate those waters when they they're the first team
in a long time they out rushed they they ran like 200 more running plays than they
did passing plays like that doesn't happen in the modern NFL until now
because they were willing to do it shout out to Kelly Moe obviously the head
coach down there for the New Orleans Saints the offensive coordinator sticking with it shot to Saquon Barkley being so damn
Explosive but the head coach having to keep everybody on the same page big dom back obviously in the building matters a lot
But him being able to keep everybody on the same page. That's coaching
Yes
That is literally what coaching is bringing the best out of your team and he has the proofs important there and then all the turnover at
The coordinator positions, you know year in and year out you talked about Kelly moe
Offensive coordinator defensive coordinators draft how he's done a great job drafting
You talked about Cooper de Jean but Quinn y'all Mitchell as well who was a phenomenal rookie corner
Jalen Carter and Cole and then the trenches, you know, he won the trench he last year
And so they got the best offensive line weekend a week out like that's how you want to build a football team
And I think we'll see a lot of teams trying to copy this style. A lot of Italians over there he brings in Vic Fangio to beat DC
remember Vic Fangio over is what they're saying Tone. Yeah because I mean offensive side it was
it's gonna be 4-0 season four years but then on the defensive side like their offense was was
fine last two years ago when that when that whole thing happened when the late season collapse
happened we everything was they had like the 28th ranked defense and for for him to bring in Vic
Fangio who was one of the greatest defense and for for him to bring in Vic Van Joe
Who's one of the greatest defense corners of all time?
Brings it in who he wasn't working out in Miami
He brings him in here the culture difference here for the Eagles and the draft picks that they did in the secondary turn the defense around
Which really led them to the super and they paid this guy
It's like they're doing everything right somehow Philadelphia is leading the way. Yep, and it's the tires think weird. Congrats, Philly
Somehow Philadelphia is leading the way. Yep, and it's entire thing weird. Congrats Philly
That's Philly I get ya congrats Philly Shane Gillis right now is telling us to shut the fuck up I want to hear now go birds go birds
Uh, you know a lot of John's over there excited about the Sirianni extension. Uh, good news. I am hearing right
Yeah, coach Sirianni is currently having a live press conference.
Let's go over to that.
I believe he's taking a stand.
Oh, he's already got to stand.
Okay.
Go ahead.
Yep.
He's addressing the media now.
Okay.
First and foremost, I'd like to just say thank you to everybody who showed up today.
A lot of people are saying things about how in you know, in the past, you know, I may not
have been the best coach, you know.
A lot of people called me a big dumb dipshit for the entire season.
This guy doesn't know how to coach.
This guy's a moron.
He talks like a moron.
His, you know, his expressions and the way he talks about the team, he's a fucking moron.
Well, I also happen to be the best fucking coach in the NFL so you know
everyone wants to kind of you know throw the flowers on me and heap praise. Listen I know we
got a lot of coaches in this league who couldn't teach a dog to sit down. I can do that because I
am the best I'm the best coach in Eagles history. I have no problem saying that. Sorry Andy Reid
I beat your ass in the Super Bowl.
And listen, this isn't going to be a really long drawn out thing. It was a multi-year extension.
I told Jeff and Howie right away, I said, listen, I'm thinking 10 years, 250 mil.
So it's up to you. I don't want to get into my finances. I'm not going to get into my business.
Let's just say that we win another Super Bowl.
I don't know, maybe Coach Sirianni goes to the highest bidder.
So we'll see.
It's one of those things where you prove time and time again,
you are the best there was, the best there is, the best there ever will be.
Shout out to Bret Hart.
That you're going to keep winning.
That's what I do.
I will end this and I'm not gonna take any questions
because the proof's in the pool.
I might go buy a new luxury vehicle or something like that.
I have no idea what I'm gonna do with all this money.
Maybe wipe my ass with a couple hundred.
For anyone who at any point in this last year,
year before that, year before that,
said I was a big dumb dipshit or questioned my integrity, my coaching abilities.
Matter of fact, this is gonna go out to everybody,
but we're gonna start, this is a personal invitation
for Dan Ortohoff to code, okay?
Later today, I'm probably gonna go down
either be at Gino's or PASS.
I'm gonna go to the bank and I'm gonna get,
I don't know, let's say, I'm gonna get $ me get ten thousand dollars in cash out Dan if
you'd like to come down and eat some dog shit off the ground I think I will we got
his breast I will personally give you a hundred dollars that goes for anyone
else who has said anything that he wants to gain go birds I'm the best coach in
the NFL it's great to be Philly baby here come the dogs okay so obviously
he's pretty proud of himself as he should be.
How do we cut to that? Yeah, I can't believe we caught that.
Good work in the back, boys.
Great work in the back catching that.
I think Zito said, hey, coach, you're on his press conference, I think, coming up.
And I'll tell you what, the fact that we're able to just get the feed.
Yeah, fantastic. Just clean to very clean.
Yeah. And it sounds like he had were people telling him what to say.
Did that did I see?
No, he was listening to cadences in his ears. Yeah. Exactly. Very clean. And it sounded like he had, were people telling him what to say? Did I see?
No, he was listening to cadences in his ears. Yeah. Exactly.
Joining us now ladies and gentlemen is a man who might have a little bit more information on what we just heard from that press conference. Senior NFL insider for the NFL now.
Sorry, I saw a man sprint over there. Ladies and gentlemen, you're up.
Sorry, I saw a man sprint over there. Ladies and gentlemen, your wrap up for him.
Yeah, Brad.
See, at press conference, I know we were probably the only one that got it.
Did you hear anything that kind of stuck out to you about this extension
that the Philadelphia Eagles just gave to Coach Sirianni there, rap sheet?
I mean, there was a lot there.
I'll tell you what about Coach Sirianni.
He is his own man.
Some of that trash talking or real talking, you don't hear a lot of coaches say that.
You don't hear a lot of, what was that?
Yeah, that's the same thing I just saw.
I think we got a little bit of a ghost coming in and going.
Coach, you're on and just left the building.
How could, I just, well, TV is amazing, as is YouTube, by the way.
Great platform, gonna have an NFL game this year.
I love it
How is it possible that someone could be in?
Philly what but then in Indy so so quick
I don't know what you're talking to the toxic table right now. Is that what you're saying?
What do you have to say about the toxic table? What are you talking about?
Did he take his ear out?
Did who?
They just fell out.
His ears are just like me.
We got weird ears.
Yeah.
Oh yeah.
Got it.
Okay.
All right.
We're good.
Anyways, Coach Sirianni extension.
Do we know this was coming?
I assume we should have expected it after he like, I guess he proved himself is how people
would consider it in Philadelphia or was Philadelphia brass always behind Sirianni even
though it got very loud outside of it, outside of this program.
Well, first of all, it's always going to get loud in Philly and Philly is not for everyone.
I would say to succeed there as an athlete, as a coach, as an executive, you got to take a lot. A lot of shrapnel, a lot of blows, a lot of blowback, it, a lot of booze. It is not for everyone.
But if you win there, if you win there, then it is special.
And I think Nick Sirianni is kind of finding that out now.
Jeffrey Lurie mentioned that this was probably coming during the owners' meetings in March.
Felt like at the time they were close to a deal.
And usually when an owner says, you're close to a deal, that that deal is definitely getting done.
But Sirianni to me is so, so fascinating.
One, obviously wins at the highest level.
I mean, you win a Superbowl,
like that's, if that's the only thing that matters,
then a guy does that and you reward him.
But I think the other thing is when he got hired,
a lot of people, including me, watched his press conference and took this coach
most people hadn't really heard of who hadn't, you know, certainly hadn't proven himself as like
the top coordinator. And we're like, does Philly know what it's doing? What they found, what we
didn't know was an elite leader. Like take all the things you want, play calling and whatever,
like an elite leader of men
And that is really what he is
He has proven that they are the champs and he is very richly rewarded less stinky more athlete takeovery
If I do recall and then I think there was uh seeds being planted in um, um, uh manure
And then obviously it'll come through the flowers won't bloom until later.
Which is a metaphor that a lot of coaches use like, hey we're chopping wood right now.
We're just chopping right now.
Yeah, it's like bamboo grows later.
So that was his way of saying that particular message.
But the way it was landed upon a lot of people's ears, ourselves included, especially after the less
thinking more athlete take over, it's like, what is this guy?
This is, and then that was around the time
of Dan Campbell's press conference too.
Yeah.
Where, you know, he's not knee caps.
And it was like, wait a minute, what the hell's going on here?
And it's like, oh, right.
It's not just about being a good play caller
for some of these people.
It's about, can you cultivate a culture?
Can you make people go in the same direction?
We chatted about it before Coach Sirianni's
press conference there, which I still don't know how
we were able to get such a good live feed. Crazy. And he had a
lot to say. Thank you. It's journalism. Preakness. Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah. No one cared. Journalism won. That sucks for
journalism. I was waiting on that. I mean, look, it took a
little grit, took a little toughness. In the end,
journalism prevailed. Yeah, I think so in something less important, but congrats to journalism getting a big time
win.
We are happy for the damn horse.
Yeah, without a doubt.
Absolutely happy for the damn horse.
But whenever they're hiring these people to bring a culture in together, there's a lot
of analytics based people and play calling people and pundits and experts that obviously
don't think it's the right move.
But it's like, have we seen a shift do you think in some of these teams?
Like Kelly Moe, obviously an incredible play caller, he gets the job down there. But do
you think there's, in New Orleans, do you think the leader of men has become a bigger
conversation than maybe it was for like what, five, 10 years there basically? McVeigh changed
everything seemingly. People forgot about having to lead an entire building, lead a
bunch of men. Because we talked about AJ Brown Devontae Smith could be very pissed
Even Jalen because Jalen doesn't get to spin it 30 40 times if that's what he wants to do right they bring in a new
guy from a division rival and he becomes the focal point of the offense and everybody's rolling in the same direction and
AJ Brown and Devontae are the ones that dumped the Gatorade on him at the end of the year
It's like that is something that you can't teach. I think that is a special, special quality. I wonder how many teams are thinking like that
though going forward. Well, more and more. I think you're right. I mean, the focus on the kind of
leader of men, which I wish there was like a better phrase for it, right? Because, but the problem is,
is I don't know how to actually describe how guys like Nick Sirianni and Dan Campbell have done it, except
for that phrase.
Right?
It's kind of a clunky phrase, but this is really what they do.
They take everyone, they get them all pointed in the right direction, they teach them to
compete at the unbelievable levels, they teach them that helping the team win is more important
than whatever stats would come with that.
They put it all together, they put it on the field,
and then if there's other areas where they're not superstars,
like for Dan Campbell, get a really good play caller.
Obviously had that with Ben Johnson for years.
You can fix a lot of the other stuff or help assist on a lot of the other stuff,
but actually leading is probably the most important.
And I would say like, I...
So to me, when the Jets hired Aaron Glenn,
I was kind of like, alright, I feel like teams are getting it, right?
Because he was a good coordinator.
The defense was good.
But you talk to people inside the building,
talk to people who knew Aaron Glenn for a long time,
and they would always say,
he is going to be a better head coach than a coordinator because he is a leader and out for years I was
sort of like why has nobody picked up on this but maybe they are now and like
that's really good to see I think so too Aaron Rodgers I assume didn't get a
chance to experience that with Aaron Glenn yeah sorry that we heard how about
him say we're moving on dude Aaron glad you're saying we're moving on I don't
want to talk about it.
Got our quarterback, we got next season.
Let's go ahead and just keep it moving.
Sounds like that meeting was a fast one.
What's that?
Sounds like that meeting was a fast one.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Certainly much quicker than the flight it took to get there.
Without a doubt.
Yeah, 2,000 times.
Yeah, much, much, much faster than the flight he took.
Whatever the case, you gotta lead your team and direct your team however the hell you need to lead it I assume
Aaron will understand that as the days move past the event new GM new head coach
good luck to them I hope they get the culture rolling now let's talk about the
league league meetings happening Wednesday Thursday is that when it's
taking place this week there's a lot of things Tuesday Tuesday Wednesday Tuesday
Wednesday sorry there's a lot of things that are still unresolved from previous
league meetings and then something being added in this flag football
vote for whether or not NFL players will be allowed to play in the Olympics. This is something the NFL owners have to vote upon.
That is going to be something. I hope it's a yes. Okay. Now the NFL is gigantic.
So the NFL doesn't need my entire marketing speech, but when the NHL
took the NHL players out of the Olympics I thought it
was a terrible idea for the NHL that was trying to build after a lockout after
everything like that because they were taking the best players off the ice for
the entire sport of hockey so people weren't able to see the best players at
hockey so hockey wasn't as good and if they would have been able to connect
like they did with the Four Nations I think it could have grew the sport I
thought the owners in the NHL were wrong in doing that.
For football, I think a lot of these owners are going to be like, did you see what we just paid these quarterbacks?
Yeah. And they're going to play flag football for the Olympics. I think there's a chance they say no to this.
Or are you thinking that there's a chance that the NFL guys will be in the Olympics, Rapaport?
I think to me, just kind of my read on the situation, because it was introduced pretty
late, like a couple days before the meeting, it was kind of added to the agenda.
That makes me think that a lot of the discussion has already happened.
I mean, I'm not saying they're not going to debate it, but to me, adding something
like this, a fully detailed resolution right before the owner's meeting means there must be at least enough support to give this like
real consideration so now they should do this it feels it feels like there's a
pretty good chance it happens now I would say I was interested in one per
team because like I don't know how you like, what if there's more, like, there's
probably two guys deserving, like it's, it's not going to be perfect. And like, if you're
the second guy in a team, but you're the best, I don't know, tight end or whatever it is,
like, should you not feel like I have questions there, but it feels to me like there's enough
support. We're like, this could be an unbelievably star-studded
Olympic like must-see event.
Yeah and for the boys you know that will play in this entire thing they grew up probably
playing some Olympic sports you know some things or or maybe yearning to maybe compete
in the Olympics getting a chance to be in the Olympic opening ceremony.
Yeah.
Oh cool.
Like all the NBA guys watching them do it it's like they've done it all obviously But watching them in the opening ceremony representing the country the gold medal and like that is a cool thing now granted them creating
The sport for our Olympics, you know, there's gonna be some teams are really bad at flag football
There's gonna be some countries that are gonna be really really bad at flag football now
I assume there's gonna be some countries
They're gonna be much better than we could have expected because football has academies in a lot of these countries a lot of these guys maybe potentially grew up playing in these flag football leagues that have
been started internationally, but America should win regardless because remember we got that one guy who's better than Patrick Mahomes
Yeah, yeah Doucet. What's his name? Like Darnell Doucet. Here's what he said to TMZ
At the end of the day, I feel like I'm better than Patrick Mahomes because of my IQ of the game I know he's right now the best in the league I know he's
more accurate I know he has all these intangibles but when it comes to flag
football I feel like I know more than him which is probably accurate different
sport different game hopefully he would help Patrick Mahomes learn the game
or compete with him I mean let him you let him battle it out. I mean
To the tryouts
No chance they pass this no chance they put like no first don't think first of all, we don't we wouldn't eat
NFL players. Well, I think miles ahead it would be great because it is in America. It is in LA. So whatever but
2020 we'll probably have 18 games by that time
Way too much money invested in these players for you lose a receiver running back or somebody out there running around you lose them for a season
That's making 35 40 million dollars a year for the, come on. And I love the Olympics.
I love-
Gold medals.
Gold medals!
I know the players will be, it'll be cool
to represent our country.
Thank you, Bones, for representing our country,
playing football.
Nah, he didn't pay the $7,000.
He was offered the opportunity to pay $7,000 bucks.
Right.
Yeah, and these NFL guys are missed out too.
The NHL voted that way.
I thought it was bad for the sport
and it didn't help grow the sport. Football's already so gigantic. I don't know if that's the marketing
angle but America who's gonna be in there? Jerry Jones maybe give us a speech. So we're gonna
like the opportunity potentially China winning the flag football in America. I don't think so. We
need to win this thing. We need to send it. Hopefully there's that. We get to watch it. It'll make
the Olympics much more lively. We would also like up. Uh, we'll head coach the team. Yeah, we'll head coach the team
Good need good coordinators. You guys do sit. Yeah. Yep. Yep. We'll head coach it
Can I just get an olympic gold medal?
Yeah, this is the way you get one
Yeah, just get one like how does that work? Okay, we just talked about sirianni
We just talked about sirianni get an extension talk about how great of a cultivator of culture he is.
What do you think it's going to be like putting all these superstars into a sport they've
never played before?
Ask Herb Brooks.
What do you think?
Everybody's going one target.
Exactly.
Well said.
Exactly.
All right.
Let's move past this because you don't get it.
You don't get it.
You don't get it.
We would love all of us, all of us to be the head coach of Team USA in the fight.
Not you, Rappaport. No Olympic coaches do not typically receive medals.
We do not want to coach. We do not want to coach.
We do not want to coach you, Steve. We do not have the time.
We will watch and support from afar. We'll be in the crowd.
We'll be in the crowd cheering on the boys. Alright let's move to some Steve Carter there's no way it's
definitely not for sports like that our team look at her Brooks did not he did
not heartbroken with a fucking gold you kid that's a lot the Olympics I knew
that I'm not even getting into it I'm not even getting into it let's move along
leave meeting we gotta be quick here We're running out of time.
Boys got a lot of great questions. A lot of things happen.
League meeting tomorrow. I cannot believe that.
That's maybe the biggest travesty of all time. There's been a hundred movies made about this guy.
Coach K is also known as KHK. He has won multiple gold medals. Yeah, but they don't know if he's actually received them.
Okay, if you can win a gold medal and receive a gold medal,
we would like to offer up our services
to be head coach only.
We'll need coordinators,
we'll need people running day to day.
We'd love to come in and give speeches
and get the fuck out of town, okay, if that is available.
And also need the medals.
Can take the reservation, just can't hold the reservation.
You can win a gold medal,
you just can't get a gold medal. Let's move along. Coaches are more important than that. Just want to let the reservation. You can win a gold medal. You just can't get a gold bingo
Let's move along coaches are more important than that. Just want to let the Olympics know that quickly lead meetings
We're gonna put up a graphic here. The load of your time thing are all things that either been pushed or presented for
These meetings. What do you think passes? What do you think doesn't pass?
I would say the
my
Educated guess is there is a change to the tush push now
right now the language has been I believe not changed I would expect come
Tuesday morning or whenever they first kind of introduce things maybe Tuesday
afternoon there'll probably be some new language aimed at eliminating any player
from pushing or pulling another player, like not specific to this play,
because I'm not sure the league wants to specifically
ban this play, it'd be probably more the mechanism
that is used in this play.
In other words, like Saquon and Goddard
and players like that pushing other players.
So to me, it feels like there's probably movement there.
I think that makes sense and we'll see where it shakes out on Wednesday.
The replay assist, I believe that's...
I think we're already good on that one.
The seeding.
So that's the one that the Lions put forth.
By the way, Wednesday morning is when this is going to be debated, not Tuesday afternoon.
So Wednesday morning.
Wild card seating is an interesting one because that was where the Lions said, maybe division
winners don't get a home game.
I don't know that that's got enough support, but I believe it's going to be discussed.
There's people who think this may be more like when that eventually goes to 18 games,
this would be introduced,
but you also could do like if a team
doesn't have a winning record
and they're the conference winner,
maybe then they don't host.
So I think these are some of the bigger issues
to be discussed Wednesday.
Okay, I'm looking forward to what they do.
We need flag football.
Yeah.
But there's a lot of money being given out to these players,
especially some new money.
Go ahead, D-Bucks. Yeah, quarterback, big quarterback. Yeah, he gets done to join that 50 million dollar club the actual deal
What are the actual details and guarantees with his new deal?
Okay, so it is 53 million dollars a year. So it is five for
265 if my math is correct a couple key things
181 if my math is correct. A couple key things. $181 million guaranteed for injury, just total
guarantees, that's a really good number. The deal averages, we've seen some kind of backloaded
deals where it looks like a number, but you're never going to make the number that's like
the last year of the deal. This is not that. This is a really good, strong cash flow front-loaded deal. Purdy will make an
average of $55 million over the first three years of the new deal. So basically, if there
was a debate on should he make 50, 52, 53, 55, average is 53, but over the first three
years he makes 55. That is really good and solid, and he gets a no trade clause,
which, you know, I think for players really like
the security of knowing that if something catastrophe
happens, they're in control of their own destiny.
So that's kind of how this all breaks down.
I thought a really, really good deal for Purdy.
49ers did absolutely fine as well.
Okay, so 55 out of the first three years
that might as well be the deal because it's a five-year deal so he's only going to play one more
year after that without getting a new deal. Yeah. And if it all works out well they'll probably
renegotiate again kick the can down the road. So this is 55 over the first three years then
drops down for years four and year five. Let's assume after year four probably back to renegotiation
if it's doing well. So he's getting about $54 million a year. Congratulations, Brock
Herndon. What a story. What a story. Yes. Mr. irrelevant. Yeah. Pretty good. It's crazy. At Iowa State,
nowhere near the starter for the San Francisco 49ers, they had another guy actually practicing
on another field during training camp that was supposed to be and he ended up being back on the
team. They didn't want to hand it. This was not supposed to be the guy. Yeah, Trey Lane number three overall. This guy was not supposed to be the guy yeah trailer number three overall this guy was not supposed to be the guy at all all he did was just
prepare himself for the moment and when the opportunity arose he took advantage of it and
now he's getting 54 million dollars a year over the next three years guaranteed congratulations buddy
all right rap we appreciate you joining us brother have an incredible monday and uh you're traveling
down the owners meetings are going to keep on top of the owners meetings via your Twitter account
we'll keep on top we got a the esteemed Tom Pelicero in Minnesota a home town
we'll be keeping him and Judy are there I'll be manning the station here well we
appreciate the hell out of you man you're the man ladies and gentlemen Ian
Rappaport that pretty store is beautiful that's American Dream baby
it's crazy no great mr. relevant in no trade clause Like it's the what three four quarterbacks 800k to 55 million
Had a roommate now has got a palace. Yeah
Are wonderful there's a lot happening
Obviously we're at the Eastern Conference finals and Western Conference finals for the NBA and the NHL and boy
What a time for the NFL they got league meetings happening the next two days that could change
the trajectory of
football
Forever. Yeah. Well these NFL guys be allowed to play in the Olympics or not. That'll be voting on Wednesday morning
Well, the tush push still exists
Ian Rapport says feels like that's gonna get changed feels like there's gonna be some rules that are added not necessarily saying you can't tush push still exists. Ian Rapport says, feels like that's going to get changed. Feels like there's going to be some rules that are added, not necessarily saying you
can't tush push, but you certainly can't pull, drag, or do any other type of movement of
somebody else.
We'll be excited to see how they word it, and we'll be excited to see how coaches take
advantage of the new rules to still get the same play accomplished without having to do,
you know, maybe 700 pounds of human being pushed over one particular guy's head.
The rule has been changing to passion special teams. Defense used to be a
pusher for field goal blocks. They banned that because whenever they started doing
the math on how much weight was going over somebody's head, they thought that
wouldn't be healthy. Now granted, do they use the same thing for this because it's
an offensive play and Philadelphia Eagles are better than everybody else at it.
So it must be a talent trait, not just a weight trait.
We shall see.
But we all assume that if it's gotten this far in the conversation and people have been
confident enough to be loud about it not being a football play, there'll be some sort of
tinkering to it.
What will that be?
We shall see Wednesday morning, the Olympics, obviously, and then the playoff seating, which
we thought there was no chance of them changing
because of how successful,
super wild card weekend has already been.
They're saying maybe,
maybe there is a little bit of a change,
especially if you're under 500
and you somehow win your division,
maybe you don't deserve a home playoff game
and somebody else does.
That seems to make sense to me too.
Feels like the NFL is throwing some heat
in some changes that they're making.
All of these conversations would normally take
10 to 15 years in the past for the NFL to change them.
All of them.
We'll have a conversation, everybody can eat shit,
we're not changing anything.
Well, we're talking about it.
Moving to the next meeting.
Definitely talking about it, and I'll tell you what,
this time we're talking about it,
a little bit more intensity, nothing happens.
Then boom, next time, it's on the agenda.
I think this is the time.
Boom, boom, they just kicked the can down the road
basically with everything.
Feels like they understand where the NFL is,
where football is as a whole,
want to make it as best as they possibly can.
And to that, we say thank you.
Good work out there.
The league's doing well.
Leagues doing very well.
Nine year NFL vet, Darius J. Butler's here.
You look super cool. Great weekend for the Butler's, right? It was. It was a great weekend. My daughter,
she won the coaches player of the year award. First year volleyball, which is awesome. So super,
super proud of her. That was awesome. You know, just got a chance to watch sports. And play a
little hoops. Play a little hoops. Got lumped up up. I mean physicality we had game seven for the Panthers
Well, so I just took my lumps for the squad
So yeah, it was a great great weekend for me and the fam
So what happened though what happened with the physicality, you know little cuz I'm a guy playing both ends of the basketball court
I'm not quite Gary V. I'm not
Pick up game pick up game going so little help defense guy gets beats off the dribble
I'm going to help got files and push my teammate into me. I catch back his head right to the lip
So it's a big cut, you know, you ever get a cut in the mouth. It's always if it's deep
It's like okay, do I go in stitches? Do I just dug it out?
Side to thug it out. Well, is that a three pound bag of ice you had on your face?
Yeah, I mean we got one size fits all sandwich bags here. So
15 minutes on get a little bit of swelling down
Before going live, but you know part again. I turned around and I just see this massive bag on the side of D. Butts face and I'm like
What is what is what is that? And then I look closer. It's ice. I'm like, holy shit
That's a massive bag of ice. Is it the whole is it your whole whole jaw?
Not so much. Yeah, not so much just mostly the whole head it was the math that one's the most
annoying I think yeah when you get first you're hitting just numb you know I
wasn't sure if I lost a couple teeth it was blood yeah but swallow it too are we
water yeah like a ball water cold you know put the cold water in there you guys win Leighton so nice we did okay congratulations
you got your bicep is still even worse just that time of year yeah it's on its
way to trips that from Ginter yeah it's from Ginter I think that's potentially an
elbow when he was doing the sure cuz it lines up with yeah you see yeah so I think it
was an elbow just his shoulder which I didn't know that was part of his his
moves I couldn't prepare I don't know if anybody does the elbow to the shoulder
yeah it's not a bad little shot yeah I'll tell you what it's been the most
lingering time I bet he's got one of those two from those elbows you gave
him oh yeah you're talking about when he gave me a head walk
Two hands. Not yet. I have a little bit more juice on that
Really don't know how that one didn't work. I saw somebody say I can't believe he didn't go down in those kicks
I mean either brother. You should see what I was thinking
This guy one cat like that. Well, he was just letting me know yeah yeah and I'll take
boom think about my boom internal boom yeah I have internal bleeding right now

st. Louis that's the way it goes go blues go blues
go blues go blues here at boss Connor at Ty Schmidt one half of the hammer dad
Cowboys AP
Tone is here. D-Bud we're happy the mouth is alright. Join us now as a man who was
cutting his grass at about midnight the other night. Had a splunking light on his forehead,
his wife posted it on her Instagram story. I thought it was good problem solvability.
I guess not, everybody saw it. Neighbor said it was a little loud and the lines are certainly crooked.
Ladies and gentlemen, AJ Hawke. AJ is this normal, a little midnight run for cutting the grass out there? And I
love you looking over at what, what with the light. Is this the first time you've done
this or is this just a standard operating procedure for AJ Hawk?
No, I mean, this has happened many times in the past. She just, she pulled in and saw
me, you know, just trying to take down some of the side yard just where the kids play play sports and play games
So yeah, just gotta knock it down a bit. You know how the grass the grass grows like four inches a day
I feel like now with all the rain. So yeah, I started it wasn't dark. It became dark
I mowed for about 30 40 minutes in the pitch black, but I got a little headlamp on we're good
When did you find so you took the Splunkin light with you out there knowing that it could get dark and you've done this before
No, I started without it
and then I had to you know circle back to the garage and pick it up once it got too dark to actually see because I
Didn't want to look completely terrible. I don't care if it's if it's perfect, but I want to you know
I want to look decent. You know what we woke up looked at it looked pretty good
Yeah, I'm sure I did and you felt like a genius when you were like I was pulling Spallie on my forehead. Yeah well I had the light in my garage I've had it for years and when I
figured out how bright this thing was I can adjust it to like it'll illuminate the whole side yard
man I'm telling you it's it's pretty legit so yeah when I first figured it out maybe a couple
years ago I said yeah this is this is the answer I don't need headlights. I'm a genius here. Yeah, congrats.
Pretty much.
Way to be a good dad, good husband over there.
I got a Canadian geese crew that's taking over my yard.
Taking it over.
Chewing the shit.
You gotta send the dogs out.
You gotta get the dogs to scare them away, don't you?
My dogs?
No.
Yeah, Chuck, let Chuck sprint around there.
In fact, Chuck rolling around in the goose poop.
The goose poop is the problem.
Yeah, geez.
They obviously chew up everything and they're annoying and they...
I actually won back this weekend I was like I'm done with you and I looked it
up you're not allowed to kill these things.
Are you sure?
Did you outfit them?
I did yeah and I even hissed back to I give a... because they'd lift their shit and then
they do this little neck thing and a hiss but I looked up the law I'm not
allowed to like murder it but if that thing attacks me and I punt the head off you can maim them yeah so I
thought if you had a sword you could kill I don't know if sword hunting it's
your property though it's your property if you feel threatened you can take care
of them right that's what there's all these things going through my head because
I was sick of it because there's just goose poop fucking everywhere you know I
know a little pressure washing on my pool around my pool yeah to get all this goose poop off
of this thing the fucking thing behind me rattles into the pool okay I had to
pick the pressure washer up out of the fucking pool okay put this thing down
then it dries off start to choke like yeah oh yeah put that thing back on the
run let me pull this fucking hose and then we get the cord It was a scene. Okay, it was a full per. I'm doing this entire thing. I get the pool deck done takes three and a half four hours
Oh, yeah, well, it's forever now washing it power washing
I enjoy it, but it does take forever to even do a smaller long time long time
And I did the wrong tip on I did share the tip to get a little wider tip
Yeah, and then when the poop was really sticking I had to get the thin tip. So I had to release the thin and put the... and I had to redo
the thing that I had to move the thing that I had to do. It was a lot. I just want to sit down and
admire my work. Pretty good job out of me. Hell yeah. I did this. These fucking geese come flying in
shit all over the entire thing. It was two hours two hours
This thing was clean now. There's poop. Obviously. It's a lighter brighter color because I got some of your yeah
Yeah, just poop everywhere on these things. I don't know how you beat them Chuck goes out there corgi supposed to be you know
There's like a hurting this should be his thing. Mm-hmm too fat. He rolls around the poop
So now we got a smelly poop dog inside
and we can't go outside because the poops are,
these geese are terrorists.
These things are a problem.
They're called ice.
They've taken it.
Send them back to Canada.
Call Tom up.
Tom.
Yeah.
Need you.
Get these geese.
Time.
Out of my yard.
I looked it up.
There is like a goose control
goose patrol around Indiana that they get those two dogs out I'm like yeah golf courses
use them I know golf course to bring dogs out and have them run up and down where there's
ponds and they you know because they can ruin a place where they gonna be a whole day whenever
they need to get a couple of animals get a couple of lions or something fence your yard
and then they won't be landing in there yeah Yeah, you're right. Dogs that don't just herd food into their mouths.
Well, Val's 12 right now.
Val's 12, 13 years old.
Yeah.
When Val was six, seven, eight, this is her job.
Bingo.
This is, this would have been, she would have,
it would have been, we would just put her outside,
and she would just be out there for hours.
But now she like looks at him, barks,
and she's like, I'm not signing up for that shit.
So you need to buy a couple more dogs. Sam was trying to push that angle this weekend. be out there for hours. But now she looks at him, barks, and she's like, I'm not signing up for that shit.
So she needs to buy a couple more dogs.
Sam is trying to push that angle this weekend,
while also trying to feed these geese.
I'm like, listen, Sam, we don't want these geese.
It's like the raccoon situation.
It's like raccoons.
You have to move out of the house because of that.
You need to just kill them.
No, I do!
You can't kill them.
You sure, after you pressure watch them come back,
you still can't kill them?
I know. I was trying to look for a cause in the law.
Bylaws? Yeah, I spent three and a half hours on this damn pool deck and then these things come shit all over it
There's nothing. There's poison. There's nothing that's happening. I got dogs, buddy.
You can't maim him. You get a golf club. You go out there and you wallop one of those fuckers in the stomach as hard as you can
You're not gonna kill him, but guess what?
He's going to, and he's not going to come back. Yeah, exactly.
He's going to be like, he's going to fly to his body.
He's like, that guy's not fucking around.
Let's go to the house next door.
I guarantee it.
And if he makes it, you hit him hard enough in the stomach, he might fly away and then
halfway up and he's a show for the whole day.
He's driving.
I don't want to do that.
I just want to run these things up.
And I don't even know how you do that.
I was trying to come up with a plan.
Gumpy.
Is that a net?
Bring Gumpy out.
They might just flock to Gumpy like our Canadian brother
has arrived finally.
He's like, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry.
Exactly.
And they might.
Wasn't that children's film?
Isn't there like a Piper that leads the mice out of the town?
We need Timmy Hortons.
Yeah.
Double doubles. Yeah, exactly. Just set one out there the town? We need Timmy Horton's. Yeah. Double doubles.
Yeah, exactly.
Just set one out there without the cap on it.
Some smooth cream move.
Yeah.
Oh.
Gumpy sitting in there.
Native American style.
Yeah.
Poutine.
Poutine being hand up like this.
Yeah.
So calm and pay their respects.
They'll notice this is sacred ground.
Big net.
Big net.
That does COVID nets.
Big net.
Yep.
Round them all up. Pull them over the shoulder. Like call the soldier in. And what? Big net that does kovac nets big net. Yep round more up
Pull over shoulder. Mm-hmm. I call a soldier and then what send it back to Canada. No, yeah, put a couple bricks in it
Let's talk about bottom of the lake
More so a frozen one normally the Toronto maple Leafs Toronto Maple Leaf all over themselves last night game seven in front of the Biebers no no
Justin Haley yeah no front row right behind the bench they took the trip from
whatever town because I seen Justin Bieber he's been in Austria he's been
golfing he's been making new accessories for a phone I don't know if you saw this awesome with the cone. Oh, yeah. Hey bigs
I don't think I didn't see that so he's got like a phone cover
That has a slot for a cone like a stuffed cone
Okay, and it's like it's firm enough that it would protect it, you know, cuz that's the issue with those cones
Sure, there's a chance they can beat up a little bit good silicone. I don't think everything Bieber's
Creating is is a home run. Okay. I don't think everything Bieber's creating is a home run.
OK.
I don't think I'll ever wear the sunglasses that he's making.
Sure.
I don't know if I'll ever wear the slides he's making.
But there's some stuff coming out of this Bieber brain
right now that I'm like, hey, Bob, like what you're doing.
I think he's making an album.
It looks like he's making an album.
And then for the phone cover, I believe
his wife made one that you put lipstick in.
And that was the inspiration.
Oh, OK.
So good play out of the Biebers.
Once again, in front of the Biebers, the Toronto,
Justin Bieber's golf game not as bad because he grew up playing hockey, which is why he's
at the Toronto Maple Leaf. She's a massive fan. He was, he was striking a swing. He said
he shot 82 this weekend and he had, I love him wearing t-shirts and just whatever the
fuck he wanted. Love that. Justin Bieber, just do whatever the hell you want to do.
Is he getting out of slot or?
Yeah, he, yeah look, there he is.
Linen pants, Bader.
He's not a pocket.
It's just that front.
I don't think that's his best swing.
Yeah, I don't know.
That's his worst swing.
We found his worst swing right there.
He was playing good golf.
I was watching him play good golf
for about two weeks or whatever.
But nonetheless, the Toronto Maple Leafs embarrassed themselves. Game seven at home to the Florida Panthers.
This thing got so ugly so quick. Three-nothing before he could even blink. Watch this entire game.
Just like I watched the Dallas Stars winning overtime in like 35 seconds. So quick the night before.
So whenever you talk about hockey being awesome,
you think about game sevens.
You think about Toronto and the storylines.
You think about them being the Dallas Cowboys
of Canada basically is how they are viewed.
All the stars from Canada are fans
of the Toronto Maple Leafs.
Every year is the Toronto Maple Leafs year.
Every year they're gonna win the Stanley Cup.
And every year something like this happens
where they get their asses beat on home ice
in game seven Marshawn extra scored on an empty net from
Saskatoon from Saskatoon. He's on the other side of the ice. Did you see all the way down in Saskatoon?
I saw it, it's gorgeous.
Yeah, and he said sorry and he just sent that thing down and he's obviously been in Achilles heel for the Maple Leafs
Especially in game sevens, but this entire team just beat the dog shit out of the Toronto Maple Leafs.
You gotta be pumped up about that. Hockey Beach continues and moves past the Toronto Maple Leafs.
Still cooking obviously Marcia has been great. Jonesy we got Chicago he's been awesome down the stretch as well.
Marshaan at 37 led both teams in this series and points but he's's been a dog, obviously Bob been doing his thing
in that as well, but just from the top down,
like we've had a bunch of the guys on from the GMZ though,
to coach Paul Maurice, who's six and old now
in game sevens.
And then obviously the team that they've built,
like they're a pack of dogs, you know,
they get it done, physical,
and then they can obviously score.
And then the moment's never been-
They're hot Canadian geese.
This is three times in a row now. We've
gone to the East Conference Finals and just where this
franchise has come like we're all pretty much older than the
franchise as a whole like these tickets used to be free damn
near growing up and now you're talking about part of best
stretch in sports in South Florida since the heat. So, you
know, we're chasing again. Obviously, we got the the
Caniacs coming up now. So, that'd be a tough tough out but um you know, I'm ready for it man. Hopefully, we're chasing again. Obviously we got the, the Cainiacs coming up now. So that'd be a tough, tough out, but you know,
I'm ready for it, man.
Hopefully we run it back to back.
I love watching the Florida Panthers play.
We'll have Patty Maroon joining us in about 15 minutes
or so to chit chat about the NHL playoffs,
stand the cup final, or sorry,
conference finals that's happening.
And how about Texas hockey?
Gumpi, big win for Texas hockey over there in the West.
Boys are playing well right now.
Harley scores the game winner.
Otter, I mean, I can't express enough how good Otter is.
Has been at home, especially in this series against the Jets.
They're playing really well right now.
And Miro just came back from injury.
That was the best game he's played.
Played over 22 minutes, so it feels like we're hitting our stride
at the right time
Electrifying environment great story coming out of the Winnipeg Jets and then it ends up obviously going the other way thought the hockey gods
We're gonna bless the Jets
I assume the Jets and most sports fans thought that as well they did early and then what they give us they take it the
Way the Dallas Stars you talk about Otter for those that don't know a hundred percent
Shia Philele Shiafali, Shiafali. Shiafali. This story is one
that's going to be told forever. Dad passes away in
the morning. Okay. He plays that night has the first goal of
the games. It's just like unexpected, beautiful sports
story. Yeah, dad passed away unexpected out of nowhere.
So he plays, he scores and it was like, you know,
as it's happening, you're watching, you're like,
well, something, this is obviously something special
in the sports world.
You think back to Brett Favre,
you think back to numerous sports stories of the past
where something unexpected comes,
something devastating happens.
And then it's always the same story.
And it was for Scheffley, he said, my dad would have wanted me to play. That's always the same story and it was for Scheffley he said um
my dad would have wanted me to play that's always what it is but I couldn't imagine how emotional that would be when they showed him like looking up and I think he was looking up at the jumbotron
maybe but like he was sitting on the bench after the goal and like the angle was him like looking
up it's like that guy like I'm almost getting teared up thinking about now just had a moment
with his dad probably and that's like, sports are the greatest man, legitimately.
I think it's one of the ways you contribute,
pay tribute is through what you do.
And he obviously did that on Saturday.
That was a beautiful moment that sports
will talk about forever, AJ.
Yeah, I mean, we've known forever.
Hockey players are built different.
Like these guys, they're the toughest dudes
out there on the planet.
But I can't imagine like after scoring this goal or maybe once this game was over when it all had to
Kind of set in a little more. I don't know. I can't even I can't even begin to understand how he did this
It's it's unbelievable. Yeah, I'm happy scored early. Yes me too. And
What about me? Sorry didn't win Texas hockey moves on but that'll be a story
You know when people talk about in the future The handshake line at the end to sorry tie the handshake line at the end of that game with him was phenomenal
It was just incredible lad shown a lot of love and then just classy moved by the Stars
I read that their ownership they charted a flight a private flight for him to get back to his family right away after the game
So like he didn't fly back with the team
He went, you know went right back and got to see his family hockey's awesome oh yeah hockey is awesome uh you know what else is
happening that we don't talk enough about the nll playoffs oh yeah okay what's this guy's name
chase frazier chase frazier chase frazier do you remember this dude from a couple weeks ago aj
oh yeah i remember i've seen him he's back this guy is back yeah and i got some bad news for
everybody in the United States of America
This is a Canadian. Yeah. Yeah, the Olympics are coming up. Hi
Is the playoffs that one in you can't see it because obviously close goal, but it was a zoom in off the behind
Yep, here comes
Hi
Geez, don't worry about that
What the team USA is gonna be just fine and for the Olympics if that's what
you're mean by him being Canadian believe it's the regular lacrosse net
not those nets regular lacrosse goalie this is cool for the NLL but yeah the
PLL boys are gonna have something to say about old Chase okay so that's a big
field lacrosse but yeah this is called box across yeah box across a bit huge in
Canada not as big in the United States.
The reason why it's huge in Canada is because it's always so cold so they can play indoor.
Right? So it's in these arenas. Hockey arenas is the perfect place for this to be played at.
Buffalo fills that place up. The Bandits. We've been invited to a lot of the games up there.
I am so sorry. Schedule's crazy. Saturday, that's when the events happen.
They've got a game this Saturday. Haven't been able to make it Monday night raw tonight in South Carolina
I mean there's just you know a lot going on but I did not know the NLO is really existence
I'm so sorry that is on me. I think but they got some highlights. I got some hey
Oh, yeah, they battle they they actually fight like they do in hockey not not, you know pushing and shoving they drop the myths
If you will so I mean I mean, Kavanaugh,
actually, Pat Kavanaugh, he's now playing NLL across the San Diego Seals. Good squad.
Pat Kavanaugh is in the NLL? Pat Kavanaugh is in the NLL.
I knew this was our league. I knew this was our league.
Which one is that?
Patty just won the national championship a couple of times.
In the Tour of the Town. The one that came on?
Well Chris is the little brother.
So Patty is the one that sat there.
Patty is the one.
Patty Kavanagh.
The one who was traded from the Cannons.
Yes, away from the Cannons.
He was brother Kavanagh, older Kavanagh.
Anyway, so the Kavanaghs are now in the NLL?
Yeah, yeah, that's right.
Okay, so sweet.
This is my league.
I knew this was going to be my league the entire time. As soon as I see this chase Frazier guy who I thought was an American
For sure with that name. Yeah, sure and I was excited for the Olympics like okay, cuz I heard box style
Lacrosse is what the Olympics is gonna be so I just wanted us to win it
I want us to win the Olympics in this entire thing feels like can I might have a leg up on us?
So box style just so I'm clear bigger feel smaller smaller feel smaller net smaller sticks
Yeah, smaller net goalies are wearing like hockey pads that that that's much different as well much smaller next. Okay top top shit
Well, especially when chase Frasier who's a good Canadian lad
He is a good lad might need to bring him down here to solve my Canadian geese issue as well
Especially with all these highlights that he's doing but yeah, that's the state
This is the style of lacrosse that it's gonna be in the
Olympics like a mix but it's gonna be smaller field smaller field yep smaller
field smaller everything so the PLL is massive field huge that that's full
size lacrosse so it's not gonna be that it's gonna be sure smaller like yes
lacrosse Canadian sport yes and then I believe the natives native American sport
but yeah it is I believe it's Canada's national sport.
But I believe the native Canadians
and the native Americans are gonna have their own team,
right, isn't that?
They're applying to have one.
Hopefully they let them have one in the Olympics.
I mean- They'll win.
Yeah, exactly.
That's what I've been told.
Yeah, hopefully.
From what I've been told, the native team would win
cause this is their style of lacrosse.
Like this is actually the lacrosse.
Yes. Okay.
Yeah. The creators game. and then the college had their quarter
finals this week in the final four set for Foxboro Notre Dame lost what Penn
State Penn State actually basically had one of the largest comebacks you could
argue ever in the history of lacrosse Matty trainer went bananas in the second
half was 12-6 Penn State came all the way back
won 14-12. This goal here from Matt Trainor is ridiculous. Just right down the
alley. How you doing? Goal tie game. And that was basically all she wrote for
Notre Dame. And then the other teams, they are moving on to play Cornell.
Cornell is the one seed. And then on the other. Oh it feels like we just took a trip back to 2002.
Yeah.
Bang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang,
dang, dang, dang.
And the quality of that video there looks like the old Rough Riders anthem music video.
That's what I just literally got back to.
But Penn State with a 12-6 comeback in football.
What is that?
I said like three scores.
Like a 17 point game is probably what it is because I mean they rattled off
They were up early and then Notre Dame. I think they scored six or seven goals. Yeah, Matt trainers absurd
That's Maddie trainer that I believe he was the big ten player of the year. He was probably the best player. Oh
Yesterday yeah filthy behind the back. Is this him too? Is this a different guy?
20 no, it is not him
English yeah, I mean Notre Dame obviously we had a great run
We appreciate the hell out of Notre Dame for the sticks the bucket got the bucket
I actually wore the back-to-back shirt here
Yeah, we appreciate you boys for letting us be a part of your run there for a while introducing us to lacrosse getting us into lacrosse
Yeah, basically
Cabin on boys. Yeahugh boys yeah they were for us you could argue the Kavanaugh's are like the
most influential lacrosse family since like the Powell's they've been around
course yeah they've been around now the Powell's did it like you pal you got
Powell Rabel might know Mike
Paul Rabel, speaking of, Mikey Powell, you guys love Syracuse back to the Final Four as well.
They're playing Maryland on the other side of the bracket.
It is a great Final Four.
It should be a great weekend in Foxborough.
Ty, who's representing the most there?
Yeah, it's crazy.
I had no idea that the Big Ten runs lacrosse now, but I guess we do.
This is the thing that the SEC's been talking about in football. The SEC and all the other conferences are like,
hey, those schools up north,
they have a bunch of suits that are all graduate.
And they have a lot of money.
And that one team that just beat Notre Dame,
I think I've been pounding this drum
since the day I went up to Penn State
and got to talk to the people that are up there
running Penn State's athletic
It's like they're all in then it's not just football. It's like we want every yeah
We want Penn State to be synonymous with winning sports and all of their alumni all of their donors feel the same exact way
I assume trainer was offered to a lot of places probably I assume Penn State is giving him a good amount of my
All of their sports they are investing in and it's like it's paying off and we're only like one two years into this
Yeah, let alone three four or five years and it's not just men's sports either
It's like we just want to dominate sports as a whole
Yeah
And it's uh, I think it's a good thing for sports for people to be invested and if you're a Penn State fan
Especially in the Big Ten how everything kind of rallies around football it's like you've been an afterthought for a
long time yeah long long long long time and now the alumni feel empowered to be
like no we can actually help our school become like a dominant sports school
because you talk about what they have numerous sports volleyball best
everything whenever they rank at the end of the year like how your athletic
department did it's a capital one cup. Yeah, whatever it is.
It's like Penn State wants to win it.
Like that is very much like, Hey, we want people to us with great athletics.
And it's like, I love that for Penn State and AQ ship was going to be loud.
Yeah.
The hockey team this year was another team wrestling at play.
Yeah.
The wrestling, of course, unbelievable.
And we assume football with Aller coming back.
Yeah.
We assume all those guys.
To your point too, like when I was in college, like I don't, I don't think any big 10 schools
had a D1 lacrosse team.
Like they had club teams and everything.
But like if you have money and all of a sudden you want to be like in the big 10 forums of
conference, like that's how you get a guy like that who's, you know, could go to an
Ivy league school, but you know, I don't know where he's from, but, and then Maryland is
the complete other end of that. It's like, they just lost their basketball coach because they can't, they can't give any money. So like it is, it truly is like the haves and the have nots, but obviously like Penn State. Yeah. I mean, when you commit to this kind of stuff, like every, for every sport, I think we need to look for Penn State to probably have a team. If we're gambling on a random college sport that we know nothing about in Penn State's
in it, I think a safe bet would be that Penn State is invested more than whatever the other
school is.
And they're just like, cool.
They're like, this is what the rules are.
This is how this is going to be.
And more power to it than it in the Lions.
Yeah, for sure.
But to Ty's point too, like with the Big Ten becoming a like powerhouse conference, like
that is what will actually help grow lacrosse.
I assume and who knows, but if there are SEC lacrosse teams that are teetering
on the edge of like, hey, should we turn D1 and really try and
make a run at this thing?
The Big Ten winning will help those commissioners of those schools and
athletic directors kind of push that.
Because even Ohio State, like I said said to AJ I won Notre Dame to beat
Ohio State last weekend but Ohio State winning would be bigger for the sport
itself because then like kids in Ohio will start thinking oh okay Ohio State
you know maybe I'm not big enough to play football or one of those sports
there but I could easily play. Can't skate, can't play hockey, bingo. But I can run I'm not big
enough for football
Yeah, lacrosse is a great sport for that agent
I think the more people that like learn of it and I think that's a great point it moving into the Midwest
Yes, yeah, go ahead. He's kids see it to these young kids see all the clips. They see all this stuff
I like all my kids play lacrosse. They see all these guys all these highlights and yeah
I think it brings more people to the game no question, but get it back to the Penn State thing quick, I played with a guy, Ravel Martin,
he was a receiver in Green Bay with me. His daughter just transferred from Florida to Penn
State for volleyball. She's like one of the best players in the country and they just got her.
Yeah, that's every sport. That is basically the messaging I got is, if it's sports, we want to
win. And it's like, all right. What do you mean?
All of them
And they're not the only ones like Ohio State obviously same
Michigan the same but it's like these I think this is what a lot of the SEC coaches and the SEC football people are like
hold the phone if this is just like a
bottomless bowl of
Soup and salad like this is Olive Garden for money like we're not gonna be able to keep up nobody's gonna be able to keep up with some of these schools up in the north and basically like we'll get it figured out that's not gonna get figured out for years and I thought this ruling that was gonna come from the judge in April yeah was gonna like set this thing straight that doesn't sound like that's anywhere near that was a hearing yeah that wasn't even what they're hearing for is not gonna. Yeah, there's no chance. So you're years away from that?
Yeah. That's what I think. Yeah and I think coach Saban, you know his name was
thrown in for that commission thing and he's like I'm 70 years, I'm retired.
Like you know how much work this is gonna be? That's not a done deal? No, no sources and I think he
just come out and said it too but the day it came out we came out here and said I
don't know if that's we did reach out to sources close to coach Saban and they were like that is
No, that is not a deep that is not even a that's not even been like really seriously talked about yet
But it is I think
The thing itself has been talked about. Yeah and coach Saban and and President Trump were together down in Alabama
So I assume there was some like, hey, this needs to get figured out. And I
think somebody heard about that and automatically ran with like Coach Saban's
talk with President Trump and then boom it all gets out there. And I think the
reason why I got out there so big is because all of us think that Coach
Saban's probably the right guy to lead this group. You know, but that task to do
that, we're talking. there's about a thousand problems.
I mean, just off top far head. Where do you start? Like, where do you even start? I don't
even know. Who do you go to first? You got ADs, you got presidents, you got conferences,
you got coaches, you got players who all have however many different, and then it's a thousand
issues with all of academics you got to worry about in the whole it's just that's a that's a daunting task that I don't know who's
the right person for it but as soon as we see Saban's name we're like yep
there's the guy hey commit the next 15 years of your life to figure out these
thousand things it's like I think he should be a guy that's consulted with it
but that's gonna have to be a young man's or young woman's work that's
gonna have to be like a life's work almost.
And we're in the transition era.
In 20 years from now, 30 years from now,
it'll probably just be understood that these are the rules.
But whenever you're in it, you know,
like I was in jail for 12 hours.
Yeah.
Hard time.
Hard time.
Hard time.
When I was in there, you might,
that might as well have been 20 years.
Yeah.
You know, when you're-
Two meals.
Yeah, look, and they gave me this fake. They
told me it's supposed to be baloney. Baloney is a fake meat. How is it supposed to be a
fake meat? Is just a faker version of a fake meat? I don't understand. It was good though.
They gave me a little cream cookies. Oh, nice. I had those as well. But when I was in there,
I was like, this is how does anybody do like real time in here? And then when you look
back on it, it's like you were in there for 12 hours, dude.
Like get over it.
It's like, we're going to look back on this time
and be like, hey, it took seven years to figure it out.
And when we're past it, we're not going to,
but in the middle of it, it's going to be loud.
And it's going to be every single conversation in the fall.
It's going to be about rosters,
how much is being paid, transfers, this, who has what, who doesn't, teams are gonna disappear,
teams are gonna show up out of nowhere,
then they're gonna disappear
because the well's gonna run dry.
It's like we're in the middle of full chaos,
but the sports are better than they've ever been.
So it's hard to really complain in all of it.
And like you said, like teams who have this kind of like
bottomless pit like Penn State and Ohio State and Michigan and like some of the
teams like that like there are no rules right now still like we thought a ruling was coming so it's like
They they have a chance here until this thing gets finalized where it's like hey
We could spend like a hundred million dollars on our football team and no one can do it less rules now than there's ever been
Exactly. Yeah, and there's more money at some of these places than there's ever been.
Title window?
Yeah. Like Oregon.
Oh yeah.
If you're Oregon, you got so close.
You had one of your best seasons.
You lose in the first round after the bye.
It's like, okay, so we're going to triple down.
Why would we not?
Yeah. Uncle Phil is not going to back off of that.
Exactly.
I would like to see the ducks in their fresh uniforms
in the national championship. Someone who might be good for it for you saying like it's a young man's game like for to figure it out
Like you think someone who was a former like a JC Treader like someone who was a president of the NFL PA
Like I believe yeah a football like someone like that retires now
He's he or she whoever takes that job is gonna have to get paid well, too
Yeah, cuz they're gonna be given I
Don't know how they fix it, brother.
Andrew Luck.
Winston, I know he ran the PA for a while too.
Get him involved.
Yeah.
I don't know if Andrew Luck's ever done any business.
I guess he's doing it now as a GM at Stanford.
But it's like, you need business people in there.
But who are young business people that are good,
that understand the sports landscape?
Yeah, I don't think this can be like your first gig.
Jason, right? Oh yeah. Maybe. Yeah. He might be the guy.
Former Washington football team president, uh, former coming from like the PR
scandal. Crisis management. Yeah. Yeah. Ball player. Yep.
Hey, Jason, that's the one. Hey, good luck. Thanks. Go get it. 15-20 years of your life, brother. It's nothing. He's the right guy.
Pick it up. Yep.
Legitimately, I
He would be perfect for it. I mean, I don't know if you could go as far as crisis, but for some of these schools
Yes, call this a crisis. Well think about if you were in crisis management the amount of meetings
You've had to take and who you've had to talk to you've had to talk to people that have been devastated by a situation people
That have obviously been blindsided by a situation or people that have made a massive fuck-up
Which all three of those parties are represented in this entire thing in a massive way
He's I was just about the cold face time. I'm like literally I was about to just be like hey, are you doing the you're the guy?
Hey, we just signed you up for it congratulations being in DC like he
Stands like the political landscape to some degree like holy hell. Yeah, did we figure that out? Yeah, I've been figured out
I don't think so
Government right would have to be a government job
But then all the conferences should chip in and pay them to say they don't have to do it. Yeah, like thank you should be like, you know what?
We got you an extra 500 grand a year Petit would be like 750,000. No problem at all
I want to deal with that big 12 was like we're not paying shit cuz you screw us
And we got his VP. Oh
Anthony Gonzalez, baby
Back I don't know if God's I want to get back into the DC world, but maybe.
I don't know, I'm not sure.
He had all parties against him at one point.
Yeah, I don't know if him and the big guy still have the best relationship.
You never know.
Gonzo's a guy, he's good business.
For sure, politics.
I still think he would have won if he ran again, but I don't think he would want to
sign up for what he was going through.
He's too good of a guy. He is
Which isn't how we should talk about politics. This guy's too qualified to go to a guy
He shouldn't do it should be the complete opposite. Well, I mean watch watch band hunt
Oh, so gross on bin Laden. You kind of do need some bad guys. So on your own side
Yeah, I heard there's a dog. I'm sitting off the table. There's a couple dogs. Yeah Kofor black
Let's just say I want him in our corner. Yeah, we looked up his name Kofor is his middle name
But he's referred to as Kofor Black in the show
Fantastic documentary if you got some time big weekend. I can't wait to watch it. It is wonder
I love you. It's Kofor Black guy does not have a seat at the table
He has a seat behind the table so he can listen to what's happening at the table. I've not heard this documentary. President Bush says,
we got any ideas? Somebody says, six months to do ba-ba-ba-ba-ba. And then
Kofor Black is his man's name. Yes, yes. Stands up, leans on table and goes, give me
six weeks I can fucking handle this whole problem here. And George Bush goes,
boom! You're in the cabinet now. Yeah, that's what I'm talking about
That is our and then next thing you know charge Bay Laudan see ya well John John's yeah next thing
You know, yeah, you don't realize how many years. Yeah, so six weeks was a lot. No, no six weeks
We were in Raising Hill
But it took a much longer time than I think most people
remember to actually get Benlawn.
What's the documentary called?
Man Hunt, the hunt for Osama Bin Laden.
It's a docu-series.
Three episodes, docu-series on Netflix.
And is that from the same angle as Zero Dark Thirty, which
was the lady?
She was CIA, right?
Yeah, she was CIA.
It does kind of go into that.
The first episode is like Bush 9-eleven
Into immediate response. I kind of go minute by minute throughout September 11 that day him at the school in
Florida the whole entire thing the second episode does kind of turn it up with the CIA what what they did the hunt the
exact things that they were doing
Overseas in the Middle East and then
The end of the second episode in the third episode
I don't remember any of this the one guy that they thought they had really on the inside
Turned on them. He kills like seven members of the CIA and then you know, I haven't finished
I can't wait to watch it called manhunt on Netflix. Yes, unbelievable. What's the um,
What's the show us last the last last last of us? No the
What's the the video game that turned into a yeah?
That's the thing yeah, I guess the episode it was trending everybody saying they were crying cuz
Pablo say you love the girl or whatever yeah, yeah, my that was a big moment. Last few episodes have been trending.
Yeah.
The last one, I guess.
Pedro, there it is.
Not Pablo.
Pedro.
Yeah.
Pedro Pascal.
You kind of combined.
Pascal.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Sorry about that, Pedro.
I did watch season one.
I've not watched season two.
Everybody's always super bummed out, but they say it's amazing.
Yeah.
I mean, I kind of stopped watching it too.
I've played the games and it's pretty true to the game. No, I guess he never said I love you in a game. Maybe not, but like I kind of stopped watching it so I've played the games and it's pretty true to the game
No, I guess he never said I love you in a game
Maybe not but like the kind of laws I was told I read the Internet the larger story beats
I think a lot of people went in having no idea how it was gonna be and like if you would have played the game
I'm like, oh, yeah, I mean a lot of people pissed off very early. I enjoyed season one. I didn't was great
Yeah
I thought the comparison of the tour school like they'll do some scenes and they'll show like the video game scene and then the show
Scene and it is identical. Okay, sweet so we can watch that we can watch manhunt or
Guess what's back? What's that back again?
Caitlin Clark. Yes, she
Tell a friend pull it up from the parking lot the second shot of the game
she had the first two points in a foul line. Then she had, then they scored a layup and then she pulls up from logo from where the 22 is basically on the Iowa court.
Tash, she has surpassed everybody in the amount of time that she has played in the WNBA.
She fills up every arena in every town that she goes to.
Teams have to go to bigger arenas
So they can try to profit off the Caitlin Clark train coming to town
Most 20-point tennis is games in WNBA history, which I think you could say that's good game
I guess a class of a Vander Sleut obviously 430 games played had 10 of them Diana Taurasi people talk about is the goat
Right go
564 she goes school you car. Okay, five sixty-five games played. She has nine twenty point
tennis games. And then, uh, Kailyn Clark, forty-one games played. She already has nine of them. And
it's just like, it was very obvious whenever she was in college that she was different, you know,
and, uh, she seemed to be more exciting than everybody else, but she also was an incredible passer and like disher
in the way she went about her business.
It was like, oh, this girl's different.
This woman's different.
We actually took the show to Iowa
for the women's basketball bracket March Madness
to showcase what she was doing as we followed along
because Ty is from Iowa.
Then she gets drafted to the fever.
And what she has drafted to the fever and
What she has done for this city and for this team is unbelievable
Obviously last year at the beginning of the season nobody wanted to believe okay They still don't there's a lot of people that still think there's a lot of other she is the one okay
And I don't I pisses off everybody whenever we say it and then obviously
it becomes a whole thing because we're a bunch of doofuses and
things like that but like this is the golden goose this is the one this is the generational
multi-generational player and we're incredibly lucky that she's in Indianapolis and she won
fucking ham in the opener against the Chicago sky and there's a little scene you know because
Angel Reese comes out same class, Caitlin Clark comes out same class, a lot of people saying obviously Angel Reese is a massive part of this women's
basketball rebirth, which I agree.
I agree she was certainly a part of the entire story and
everything else happening.
But there was a moment in the game where Angel Reese has a little bit of a push off
on offensive board.
Obviously she's great at getting rebounds, incredible underneath.
Caitlin Clark says, what the hell is that?
Come on.
Caitlin Clark says, what the hell is that to the ref?
And then she says, and most basketball people say,
that's a take foul.
Instead of a layup, we're going to make you earn it.
I think Angel would miss one or both of those free throws
instead of getting a wide open layup and that entire thing.
Angel was pissed off, thought it was a flagrant.
Afterwards, everybody said, it was a take foul,
it was a take foul.
But it was very convenient how most of the internet,
not all of the internet, most of the internet though, clipped out
Angel Reese pushing the fever girl in the back, Caitlin pointing at the ref like what are we talking about here?
We're not calling that. They clipped that out. They just go to right here, bang, Caitlin Clark fouls Angel Reese and then boom
Buzzsaw on the internet about Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese. Ultimately, I think the buzz is good for the WNBA as a whole.
I know it's probably not fun to be a part of if you're Caitlin or Angel Reese or anybody else,
but in the end the Indiana Fever win by a hundred and
Angel Reese and Caitlin Clark have started their second season in the WNBA and Caitlin Clark is on track to be the greatest of all time.
Yeah, and I believe she is already top three in triple doubles in the history of the WBA too.
That's why I got on like there is there's no argument.
Like I don't understand.
People can yell until they're blue in the face.
Like the proof's in the pudding.
We've seen all the stuff.
And you say like it is good for the sport at large.
But I think a lot of people get turned on.
Like it just always goes into a race thing.
Like every single time, no matter what,
that is always the
Discussion and then they they squash it right afterwards. It's like no not really that's kind of just a basketball play like
Every in every league there's always there's gonna be like adversaries like, you know Angel
Reese is the foil for Caitlin Clark and vice versa like they don't have to get along
They don't have to like each other their competitors like that this kind of shit happens
But every single time something like this happens and we have to
go right back to.
Full on.
Yeah, exactly.
And it doesn't get moved at all.
So like, we're not talking about the game, we're talking about that play and that's it,
you know?
And then yeah, we'll get the stats about her and her 20 points in tennis assist games and
the triple doubles and all that.
But the discussion always comes back to this.
And I think that's why a lot of people are just kind of they're just kind of fed up.
Well, just know if you watch a Caitlin Clark game.
And I'm not saying that I watch any of the other teams play.
OK, I watched Indiana Fever player.
So I'm just going to talk about Caitlin Clark, the Las Vegas Aces.
Great New York Liberty.
Great team. Whenever we when I see the fever play, I'm like, these are great teams.
Los Angeles, I think they're like Kelsey Pullman out there. Yeah, they do. I think they're going to be great. There's a Liberty, great team. Whenever we, when I see the fever play, I'm like, these are great teams. Los Angeles, I think they got Kelsey Pullman out there.
Yeah, they do.
I think they're going to be great.
There's a lot of great teams.
I'm just talking about watching Caitlin Clark play,
electrifying.
Yes.
Absolutely. She will pull.
She will pull that shit up.
She is not, she will shake, sidestep, step back,
not scared.
And then she'll do no look, like a no look pass,
full court passes.
I mean, her teammates have to get used to her passes like I think because they've never
really seen it before. She is she's great for the sport, she's great for the game
and as a guy has a daughter Mackenzie you know it's like great that she's in
our city in Indianapolis you know like right here getting a chance to see it and
that's basically who's filling up all these arenas. Now obviously there's a lot
of adult males who are fans and going to it,
but you got a lot of little girls
that are coming out watching their hero play.
And she's selling out every arena.
It's great for the sport.
Yeah, she's the most popular women's athlete
on the planet right now, I think.
And obviously her game speaks for,
like it's just different.
I've been watching women's basketball
since going to Yukon.
That was back in 04.
And you just have never seen,
you've seen dominant players.
We've seen Bree Stewart come and for championships Maya Moore being make for
Rebecca Lobo of course it was before my time but I've just her style of play
coming shooting the deep threes the the the passes that she has like she's
probably the best college scorer men's or women's when it comes to you know
wire to wire as far as a career goes and like like Ty said, like that shit with her and Angel,
like that's basketball.
Like we see it, we watch the playoffs,
you see a hard foul, guy gets up, talk shit.
Did Angel overreact?
Yeah, probably it was a hard foul.
It is what it is.
They squashed it after the game and you moved on.
But yeah, all the think pieces and everything
after the first game, hey, it's numbers.
So I'm sure the WNBA probably likes that part of it.
But the other side of it, I think it's pretty shitty. The sport is worth watching. The sport? Yeah
I mean, what is this 25 26 years now for the for the league in general?
So I think we got daughters in here
So where this league will be where women's basketball be 10 15 20 30 years from now
I think I've been a much better spot because of all the talent and what we're seeing now on a nightly basis.
Watching Kaitlyn become confident that she's the one out here too is awesome.
Yeah, it's a press conference.
Press conferences, she's leading.
Coach is here.
Aliyah Boston's here.
Yeah.
Kelsey Mitchell, dog, great player.
She's down there.
It's like, this is Kaitlyn's team.
That's kind of the other part of it too, because a lot of of people kind of Almost treated like she's a damsel in distress type
But like Caitlin like you would notice more than me like when I watch her play like she was like the villain she wanted
Don't like the shit talking like she was a dog
She was gonna be in your face like this shit's you know everybody remembers angel for but that was you know
Caitlin was doing it wasn't the same way
But that mannerism and how she played like that like Tarasi Tarasi
No, she's an asshole on and off the court and that's the part reason like Jordan
she was wearing Kobe's yeah the special custom rookie of the year Kobe's like
she like she's she's cut from that cloth so I just love competitors I love
shit-talkers and I love to see on the biggest stages brothers you know Asia
Wilson, Caitlin Clark, whoever it is, big time, Kelsey, she dropped what, 37,
I think.
Yeah, for Los Angeles.
Yeah, so.
She feeling free out there in LA.
Looks like it.
Might be.
Let's pivot away from WNBA.
How many games?
We have a schedule up.
They were 20 and 20 last year, so 40.
40 games?
Good luck, ladies.
Good luck against the fever.
My winner. What are the odds this year for us?
Third or fourth?
Yeah, I think we're the fourth best.
Because it was Liberty and Aces and then I think...
44 games.
44.
Let's go fever.
Joining us now ladies and gentlemen is a three-time Stanley Cup champion.
A man who's probably going to be able to break down what the Toronto Maple Leafs did last night better than any of us could.
We just assumed that this is what Toronto was gonna do.
I think everybody in Toronto assumed
this was potentially a possibility,
but this year was gonna be different.
Telling us if that is the case, ladies and gentlemen,
the man with great lettuce and absolute legend,
Big Rig, Patty Maroon.
Yeah, Patty!
What's up, boys?
Hey, Pat, thank you for joining us
on this glorious Overreaction Monday.
Brad Marshawn, Kachak, Reinhardt, and the Bob and the boys go into
Toronto and smack them in the mouth in front of the Beavers.
This is what Toronto's MO is, but this year was supposed to be different.
How do you think the Toronto Maple Leaf fans are taking this and
everybody in hockey assume this is gonna be the case or no?
I mean, yeah, I mean, I think for all you guys have been
talking about we're breaking down the game a little bit but I think the first
10 minutes Florida had them on the ropes and then Toronto kind of pushed you know
the next 10 minutes in the first it was a 0-0 game going in the second period you
know obviously if you're a team you'll take that but if you're Toronto you'll
take that too.
It just seemed like it just got away from them
in the second period.
And when you're playing behind in game seven,
it's impossible to come out on top.
So I think they played behind.
Even if they get that first one, then they
score the second one quick.
And then they get the third one.
And now the game's probably over right there.
But I'm a Leafs fan. I you know you're probably gutted every year when you see this every single
year. You know can their core guys get it done? It seems like they can't right now but they're a
great team. I thought they were a different team this year. They played a little harder.
You know they had some more structure in their game. You know, I was pulling for Toronto only because a Ruby coach me in St.
Louis when we won and Joseph Joseph walls from St. Louis.
So he was a good St. Louis kid. So I was pulling for him in that.
Unfortunately wasn't their night.
Yeah. In front of the Beavers too, you know,
Yeah, that was, that was a tough look. Maybe he's there. Bad luck, bad luck.
Charm, but a million on him too.
So there's a lot of different curses,
a lot of different curses that the internet was talking about.
Biz obviously had a fantastic night on TNT.
I don't know why he's wearing red in there.
It's Panthers color.
That's Panthers color.
The little maple leaf.
I mean, I think he just needs to change his outfit.
He needs to change his outfit.
He never, I mean, I felt like every time he wore that outfit,
he got rid of the yellow shirt,
but even the tie and the jacket, maybe just change it up.
Maybe just don't wear it.
He's in the middle of making an album too.
He's in the middle of making an album.
He's making a band.
I mean, you can't have this guy.
How's he supposed to win a game seven
while he's also making an album?
What all can we expect out of Justin Bieber?
My last question before the boys have some here,
let's go to the West. Dallas, Otter, obviously.
I heard a quote from him that said, I want to win a Stanley Cup and I want to be the starting goalie for the United States of America.
Obviously Hallebuck on the other side, best goalie in the league throughout the season.
Otter was doing some shit this series. That was absolutely absurd. You've said if you have a good goalie, you can win it all.
Otter right now, hottest goalie left and can they win this entire thing down there in Dallas?
Yeah, like I said before in the show, I think even this game right here in game six,
I think Hellebock played a tremendous game to get their team to try to force a game seven.
I thought they played really well.
I think it was a well-rounded game for both teams.
They both played great.
It was just about, you, Mark Seifle was going through some things and he gets
a goal.
The team is through some injuries.
Morrissey goes down during that game.
But as you can see, you need goal-tening, you need a big-time save.
And that was with like three minutes left with Otter right there making that big-time
save.
So you need key saves at key moments in the game.
And I think just Dallas is just built for the playoffs.
They're big, heavy, strong, they're fast.
They have a great makeup of the team.
They have the four lines that can roll.
They have, you know, three pairs of D back there that can, you know,
just open up the door and go.
So, I mean, with Edmonton, I think to be honest with you,
I mean, you got to stop Connor and Leon.
I think with Edmonton has been,
during the past post-seasons,
they don't have depth scoring.
And I think they have it this year.
They have all four lines that have been producing.
You're not just counting on the big two up there.
So it's going to be a great serious heavy series
So I'm really looking forward to this one. Go ahead AJ
Yeah, Patty you won three cups
So is there like a I guess when you when you think back on those teams
Was there a theme or something like the culture that you felt on those teams that you knew like something was special possibly early on
And if you compare some of those teams and maybe times when you were on a team that came up short
I don't know if there's something you could put your finger on.
Hey, this team had some kind of common thread throughout when you're all your three cups.
The relationships away from the rink was very special.
We bonded so well together away from the rink, inside the rink.
And I'm a firm believer if you have those relationships inside, it's going to carry
over on the ice.
You know, you're going to have confidence, you're going to, you know, stick up for your
teammates, you're going to play for the guy beside you.
We just, there was a great culture in those, in those cup runs that we went deep on.
And that's a huge thing for me.
And I think we're seeing it with Florida right now.
It just seems like their locker was clicking.
They got, you know, good leadership, you know, when someone gets traded there, they bring I think we're seeing it with Florida right now. It just seems like their locker was clicking.
They got good leadership.
When someone gets traded there,
they bring them in right away.
And I think with those runs that we went on,
we just, we felt that way.
And that's a sign of like swagger to me,
a sign of confidence, the belief system,
things that go up and down.
Florida loses the first two, they find a way to come
back, call back in the series.
I think it's just a confident swagger thing that we just had the entire time on these
cup runs.
No one's going to touch us, we're going to play the same way, we're not going to get
out of our game, we're going to be boring, we're going to be heavy.
And I think Kachuk's quote yesterday was, the longer you do it in a long period of time
and in a seven game series, you're going to come out on top eventually.
You're just going to wear them down.
And I think that's what we did too.
And you're seeing that with Florida, you know, they have the, they have the makeup of the
team and it's been fun to watch, man.
They're a hell of a team and they have a goalie, they have four lines, they have great D so they're gonna be hard
they're gonna be hard to beat and you know in the series there you know Tanev got hit like 103 times
you know when you're wearing these guys out it's exhausting and that's I think that's
with the culture they have in that locker room the blue system. Hold on say that again I didn't hear
that stat say what you said again because you're big rig and you're like, so these are stats that you
like to see.
How many times a 10 have you had 103 times in the series?
That was before game seven.
Jesus.
So that's, that's a mindset that like they're saying like, Hey, we've got to get bodies
on these guys.
Like for young quarterbacks, for instance, they say, Hey, let's get people around his
feet.
Like let's just, even if you're late, let's get people or even old quarterbacks, like let's get people around their feet. You guys have the mindset like, Hey, let's get people around his feet. Like, let's just, even if you're late, let's get people, even old quarterbacks,
like let's get people around their feet.
You guys have the mindset like,
hey, let's get a body on these guys.
That is a real strategy, innocent thing?
Oh yeah, absolutely.
It's a strategy for going into a game seven series.
You want to wear the DL.
You want to be exhausting for them.
You want to be in their face at all times.
You dump it in, you want to lay a lift, you know?
You want to make it difficult for them as hard and you want them to go back and dump it in. So you want to reload, get
that puck back, three-quarter ice them, throw it back in and do it again. And by the end
of it, man, you don't want to go back for a puck. I'm telling you right now, I've been
on the other side of it where you can see Dee are exhausted. They're out of breath.
They're coming back to the bench, putting their head down and physically and mentally like, I mean, Jesus
Christ, are we doing this again?
So I think over a long period of time, it's exhausting.
So that's what Florida does.
I mean, they play a simple style of game where they're a good defensively, they break it
out clean, they go back the other way 200 feet
and they just lay it in the corner and go.
And it's a prime example of, you know, the fifth goal there.
I think it was a fourth goal.
Marci lays it in in the corner, hit, hit,
shot to the net, tip, boom, back of the net.
It's not pretty, it's not pretty, but it's exhausting.
And you know, you're gonna find your ugly goals.
I love, I love that
That tan of hit 103 times is more than double anybody else on the ice. What? Yeah full conversation by coach Mo
Hey, listen this guy right here bodies. Yeah, 103 times. That's a target
They've had to be skating back to the bench in between shifts
Are you guys getting hit every time? I'm getting hit every time I'm out here.
That's a wild thing. And I love that you say, yeah, we're trying to wear these guys down for sure.
You have to. You have to. And I think it's playing the right way the whole time. You don't get out of
structure. You know, sometimes you're going to have, you know, a bad game. You're not going to
be perfect every game, right? And, but if you're 75, 65% of every game right and but if you're 75 65 percent of that
perfect I mean you can eventually come out with a win right you just wait for the team to make
mistakes and you play a hard simple game and throw pucks in the net and find ways to create
second third opportunities you'll find your way Florida's already won and you talked about the
most important thing is being together and you chit-chatting about a little bit but Darius J.
Butler lifelong Florida Panthers man that's's a question for you Patty. Yeah you talked
about that culture and you specifically mentioned when trades come over, players come over that have
been traded. Jonesy, Seth Jones and Marshaan obviously they played a huge role right now with
the core guys that are already there. What has been their impact right now on this Panthers team
throughout this playoff run and I want you to talk a little bit about that that I believe is a third goal from Jonesy where he kind of
Kept his stick off the puck waiting for his guy to get back onside
So just tell me about these guys and the impact they've had on the squad
Yeah, I got the opportunity to play with Jonesy this year in Chicago. Obviously it wasn't a good fit for him
He needed to go somewhere and you know
Chicago. Obviously it wasn't a good fit for him. He needed to go somewhere and you know
and be it's not be the guy but you know play with guys and surround himself with good players and good culture and man he's he's really come out this is like his I feel like it's not his coming
out party because he's been in the league player in this league for so many years but man he's
looking really good out there you can tell when Eklad was out he he fit in right away with this
team and his offensive ability is coming out but I think the biggest that blood was out he he fit in right away with this team and
his offense abilities coming out but i think the biggest thing for me is how he plays defensively you know he's playing against the top top lines every single night he's playing hard his stick
is really really good so it's been really fun to watch him and he's been producing with that man
he's been scoring some big time goals and this goal right here just uses his size, uses his skill, takes
it to the net on that one where he beat him wide but I think they didn't count it but
I mean this shot, this shot on the two on one, the first one, I mean that was a snipe
but Jones is an elite player in this league and I'm very happy with him right now and
he fits in really really well with that Florida Panthers team and I'm proud of him and with
Marshy man he can fit anywhere it's like a bunch of that's like his team like Kachuk Bennett you know that's those
are his guys you know they all play the same way they're hard they're in your face every single
night and Marcy fit in right away that third line has been so effective so consistent for that team
and they've been scoring some big-time goals for the four Panthers and it looks like that line's been gelling right away right out of the gate
But I think the biggest team for me is the culture they have the locker room
How they bring those guys together and they fit in probably from day one
So I think that's the biggest thing and then you can just play hockey, right?
You talked about him being in the third line and fitting in immediately. He answered that question to the TNT boys afterwards.
It was brought up by the white on the far right. Yeah. For the Colby Armstrong? Yeah, Colby Armstrong
last night. Yeah. Okay, so Colby brings it up. He goes, you're a third liner for this Florida
Panthers team to Marshawn. You know, you're like a depth guy is kind of how he worded it. And Marsha
talked about how towards the end of the year, Nobody was healthy. So they didn't really know who was gonna play with who and then he said as soon as he got with that group
The chemistry was immediate. He said we all played pretty similar. We're all in there
Is there guys he worked better with than you don't work with like is that something that marshy would have literally been able to figure out?
Or is he just kind of?
Being humble about being able to play
with anybody is there like certain like because I remember Gensel and Sidney
Crosby for instance Gensel and Crosby immediately upon Gensel getting there it
was like new where the hell to be Crosby was feeding them this dude scoring goals
immediately upon getting there and then there's been other guys obviously that
Sid's been able to kind of mesh with but when Marshy says that immediately they
had chemistry what does that mean they're just seeing the ice the same way or what Marshy says that immediately they had chemistry, what does that mean?
They're just seeing the ice the same way?
Or what do you think you meant by that?
Yeah, I think they're reading and reacting off each other.
I think they see the ice pretty well together.
I think they're similar games.
I think the hockey IQ that they have is probably similar
to what he's used to playing with.
Obviously Marshy playing with with pasta and all those guys
Bergeron and Boston but I think with um with him it just seemed like it clicked right away you know
there's there's those are two young players he's playing with they're hungry and I think they have
tenacity you know they're they kind of have that never give up fight on pucks you know they kind
of read and react off each other and it just seems like it's been a great, you know, they kind of read and react off each other. And it just seems like it's been a
great fit, you know, with Marcy's hockey IQ, he's an elite player in this league, maybe, I mean,
I think he's a Hall of Famer. And when you have that veteran presence on your line, I think it
kind of boosts those other two, right? To get them, you know, playing maybe with a little more hockey
IQ, a little more offensive ability, right? And you can see it.
They're producing great for this team
and they have depth scoring and that's huge for them.
And with Marcy saying he's a depth player,
I don't think he's a depth player.
I think he's, you know, he fits in perfect, right?
He's still playing his minutes.
He's on the PK, he's on the power play.
You know, he just has, he found a line
and he found a home that kind of fits with them right now.
And I think they're, I think they're most consistent line right now.
I think points would say too at 37 years old or whatever.
Marshy's an absolute dog.
I enjoy him.
I do too.
I enjoy him a lot.
Just as an entity, just as a being.
I really appreciate his, he's got to be good to be the way he is, obviously.
And he's great.
And you said
Hall of Famer in my head
I don't know the rules for the NHL Hall of Fame
But I would have just assumed to marshy was Hall of Famer as well happy to hear that you think that and now I feel
Much smarter now, let's go to the West shall we Connor has a question for you, Patty. Yeah, Patty
What do you think about the Oilers being off for so long?
I'm not sure during you know recent playoff runs how much rest some teams have had.
But it feels like we haven't seen the Oilers play in over a week and
you could argue the same with the K and EX as well.
But how do you feel about the rest for two of these teams versus the other two,
kind of just having to turn around and
go play immediately after wrapping up their two respective series?
I can go both ways.
I think for me, if your team's a little banged up
going into the playoffs and you made it this far
and you find a way to, you know, close out a series early,
I think it's awesome to have some rest,
get those guys a little bit healthier.
You know, if they're playing at 80%,
maybe you can get them at 90, 95%.
So I think it will be fine for
them for me some players too if you I mean it can go down the list some
players would like to play right away you know get this thing started you know
no breaks and find a way but I think West I mean it's it's tough you know with
Dallas just finishing but for me rest is a weapon
You got to use it and you got to find ways
So I think with these guys being off if they're a little banged up
I think they're gonna come back just fine, right? You can get take a couple days off practice days off, but
Dallas is obviously coming off a hard series. So they're gonna be ready to play Wednesday
So I think Iott will be fine though. I think they needed some rest because they won on a
deep run last year and the Stanley Cup finals and emotional, you know, loss for
them in game seven. But you know, I think there's this time of year that teams that
go deep, you need the rest.
Okay. So let's talk about that. Ty has a question for you.
Yeah. Speaking of that, Patty, obviously, you know, your team's never really had
any issue with this because you won three consecutive Stanley Cups. But for
a team like Florida, like how much does fatigue come into play because this is going to be
their third consecutive season with like a very deep playoff run? Like, do you feel that
at all? Is it kind of one of those things where after the season ends, you kind of just
have that big release and you're just dead tired like how does that work going into one of these series I think they're
running high so you're still like your general is pumping your you know you're
still going you're playing meaningful games down the stretch I think you know
Florida's trying to do it you know what Tampa did and Pittsburgh did you know two
cups in a row so I think with guys, it seems like their engine never stops.
I think they'll be just fine.
You know, it's going to be, they're going to be what?
Third conference finals in three years.
It seems like they still have got a lot of juices left.
It seems like they're playing at a high pace right now.
So I don't think they're going to stop anytime soon,
but like you said, though, when it's all said and done,
you achieve your goal, then you can sit down and rest and be like,
thank God that's over.
You know, thank God we had the opportunity to lift that Stanley Cup.
It was well worth it.
So I think that's what they're doing.
And listen, they got Marshy coming back.
They have Jonesy.
They got some guys that, you know, that have some energy that haven't went deep in a long
time.
So, you know, they can feed off their energy and
They got a boy that's looking great right now, but it seems like their engines
Going right now and they're playing some great hockey. So I'm not too concerned about that
Yeah, could Chuck had some games off to obviously that groin injury from Four Nations
You won three straight Stanley Cups one was st. Louis to with Tampa go bolts
What's the most absurd thing you put in the Lord of Stanley Cup?
I mean I put toaster ravioli in there because it's like a st. Louis staple
With sauce their sauce in our
there were sauce in the Stanley Cup and then we dipped the poster drives in the Stanley Cup
with the sauce in there.
So yeah, that was the most outrageous thing.
But I think for me,
probably just putting a thousand beers in there.
Of course, Joker, I appreciate Joker too.
Soon as the nuggets lose,
he goes, next few days probably a lot of beer.
And then obviously you hear about every, as soon as I had an opportunity with Stanley Cup around me it was like gotta drink a beer out of this
thing yeah well you're not allowed to do that because you didn't win it well Ruppers here he
won so he will pour the beer into your mouth or whatever here's the we actually have a clip of
the the Grazzi the mozzarella the ravioli going into Lorto Stanley Cup there.
How many beers does it hold? Six? I think six or seven. Have you done one in
full swoop? Oh yeah, no no no no no half half. It's heavy though you got to do it
yourself unless someone's doing it for you. Has anybody ever taken down a full cup of beer?
I'm sure they have.
For sure. That's a lot of beers.
That's a lot of beers.
That's a lot of beers.
I know you hockey guys drink an immense amount of booze.
I also fancy myself as an old school, pretty big drinker, booze bag.
I don't know. Seven beers is a lot of space.
Oh yeah.
Just in there as a whole.
Chara won that thing. Chara can put down 50 beers in a sitting if he needs he's like eight feet
He is gigantic human. Yeah, I mean when you win anything is possible
You can drink seven no problem if you win yeah, you're right
I didn't even think about that your product you're probably deleting about 50 that night anyways, sir
Who cares what's coming and going? Yeah, right. You just want Lordo exactly. We appreciate you making time for us, Patty
Well, will you continue to come on as the conference finals continue? We appreciate you
Absolutely. I'll come on anytime. That's great news. That helps us out
Thank you so much. I was supposed to go in the studio on Wednesday,
but with the new baby, it's impossible right now.
So you got a new baby?
Yeah, baby girl.
Congratulations. How many?
Three.
Two girls and a boy.
Congrats, man.
So how old are you?
Like very recent? Within weeks? Yeah, four weeks.
Man. Geez, you're in it right now. Yes you are. You're in it. That's why I was late today.
I'm in it right now. The grind's real. That's life. That's life, Buds. That's Navy Seal Camp for
humans. They get hit more than 10 times. Yeah, exactly. Couldn't even imagine. Well, congratulations
to you and mama on a new baby.
Congrats to you on Crushing TV and we appreciate the hell out of you for your time.
Thanks for having me, boys.
Talk soon.
Hey, after you get out of this stage with the new baby girl, maybe we go back to Lordo,
a thousand beers.
You know what I mean?
Yeah, yeah, baby.
All right, Patti Marone.
Patti Marone.
Yeah, Patty! I mean, I had some Ravioli's in there, but for me it was mostly just like a thousand
beers.
Everybody you've ever run into in your life, you want to drink a beer, Lord?
Yeah.
Sounds good.
That was AJ, that was your fucking, still is probably.
Yeah.
Drinking a beer out of that.
With Jack?
Absolutely, yeah, I think it still is.
I don't know, has anyone turned it down? If someone's like, hey, you want to drink a beer out of the cup. With Jack. Absolutely, yeah, I think it still is. Yeah, I don't know.
Has anyone turned it down?
If someone's like, hey, you want to drink a beer
out of the Stanley Cup?
Oh yeah, somebody grandstands about.
Yeah, you're right.
That's not who I am anymore.
Anymore.
And I'm proud of people that aren't.
So I want to let people know that I'm proud of them
for figuring it out and doing their thing.
But if Lord Stein in the Cup is presented,
I think you kind of have to do the hockey gods a favor. Yeah, yeah house that beer. Yeah seven beers
I don't know man. That's a lot definitely could do it. You've done right before I
Beer ball off the second story. Yeah. Yes, right. That was six. Okay, so you can do it
Yeah, you can definitely do it that came out right meter. Well, so I cross the street
No, I want to let him see me do it. You kidding me The place one bananas obviously walk in there hit this thing. Oh
Place goes great. Oh my god
Yeah projectile
Possibly yeah, I'd turn a corner. Well, that's the problem is you seven beers
You can't do that
If like you would have had it probably at least drink like ten beers before you do a seven beer like that can't be seen
Someone do 18. So yeah who?
Are you our American hero?
He did I think it was a banker's dozen
I don't think so teen you also you can't do it like right after winning because you
Pass out and die. You're so dehydrated right after.
That's a lot of beers.
But remember, they don't get the cup for much.
There's a lot of water in beer.
Yeah, no, I'm saying like in the locker room
right after winning.
I feel like that's when your adrenaline is so high.
It's like, fucking put several of those things in there.
I could do this.
And then just dump, hey, beer on your jerseys,
beer on your sweater, beer in the mouth.
Let's keep it moving.
I just found out Patty Maroon wasn't going to be here on Wednesday.
Is that what you just found out?
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's what I just found out.
I appreciate him doing that to our face.
And also, I don't know how he's been doing this with a four week old.
That's crazy.
Yeah, that's nuts that he even was on TNT last week.
That's what I'm saying.
Shout out mama.
Yeah, weapon.
Shout out mama. Yeah weapon
Maybe like Lord Stanley's handlers
My help with the baby
What's that? How long has it been Mike 50 years? Yeah
He actually named it. Yep Stanley. He created the cup. He's been there since before he was that tall. Trophies. He's not the Lord, Stanley. He's the Prince. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It's the greatest trophy in sport. Yeah. Not, not even close. I agree. The Borg, Warner. The Indy 500 thing. Yeah. Also up there. Awesome. Yeah. The Wanamaker needs to figure it out.
Stop putting your golfers in a bad position. Glue that top on man, do something. At least a half
cock on it. Like there has to be some sort of like halfway. A latch. Something. Yeah a latch is easy.
So Scottie Scheffler's like calmest coolest guy of all time. Yeah just boom. He looks like an
asshole. Yeah. Like doesn't need to look like an asshole. Or take it off. Yeah just don't have it
up there. Have it be a cup because it is a warm maker cup. They should have that sitting next to it.
Yeah. Yeah. They should have that sitting next to it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
They should have that sitting next to it,
because they know what's happening with that whole thing.
And you can bring them one of those.
That is a beautiful trophy.
It is.
It is.
Total.
Yeah, I mean, I guess Scottie Sheffield is so locked in.
He's just, I'm trying to win the trophy.
I'm not worried about what the trophy is.
The trophy is a trophy, right?
Yeah.
Let alone this one.
We saw this one the other day.
Yeah, that was.
That's right.
That's set up for disaster, too. JD Vance right. That's JD Vance. JD Vance. Just
That's a terrible setup. That one's dumb as well. Yeah, we don't we just we're just trying to just be
I have one. Just try to have a good time. Just look at Stanley Cobb.
That's the that's a beautiful trophy. Yeah, they're all beautiful. One piece. It doesn't. One piece is simple and means the same. Yeah. Yeah. The Lario is beautiful as well one piece as far as like the best ones the best ones have a little panache
You know that thing is huge the Stanley Cup is huge the board the board is huge even the college football trophy
Pretty large, you know, yeah, like the biggest ones have the best moxie
Yeah, I concur the worst trophy
You could argue is the biggest tournament the World Cup trophy stinks
The FIFA Club World Cup that you were with was beautiful
These people walk it up to me.
Okay, when I did that, the boxing extravaganza.
When you weren't supposed to touch.
Yeah, they gave me this trophy, like during the break.
They asked me during the day, like,
hey, do you mind if we bring the trophy up?
It's for the first club world cup this year,
whatever, I'm like, absolutely would love to see it.
You know, can't wait to see it.
Do the whole thing.
Then they try to figure out where they're gonna put it.
It is a big trophy it is a big joke.
Gorgeous. Look big too. So they obviously tell me you're just not allowed to touch it. They tell
me that earlier in the day. I go, okay. And I just move along. Me and Booker T, you're talking,
we're having a good time. Like this is a WWE folks are in there. We're in a diner.
Me and the entire thing, they're pitching us. It's getting fat at Marty's rolling. You know,
Lindsay Lloyd's throwing a hundred on the paint
fittings cooking in the I mean there is I think Nick was even there at one point it was a
It was good. It was good vibes in this time long day good vibes in the diner So they come in they're saying would they be the trophy you hang it? Yeah do the whole thing
So they tell me can't can't touch I go. Okay sounds good
And then they leave, you know me Booker T get back to conversation about Booker T being one of the greatest humans that ever exists.
More people need to know that. I love Booker T. Sent him a text last Friday, he joined the show, he sent me a text on Sunday, he said, is this on Zoom?
We need you. So they bring the trophy back up and they put it right next to me and they go, you are not allowed to touch it.
I go, should you move it down the table a little bit more? Because that's very close to me and they go, you are not allowed to touch it. I go, should you move it down the table a little bit more?
Cause that's very close to me.
And I know you're not allowed to touch it.
Just take the thing off and don't touch it.
I go, okay, sounds good.
And then as soon as you see that thing,
it's hard not to just be like flies on ship, brother.
What are you talking about?
Yeah, look how nice this is.
Let me see if it's real or not for the people at home.
Booker, remember they told me, don't touch it.
Yeah, I remember Terrence Crawford, he was really in on it. Mm-hmm. Yeah, I was in on it
Yeah, but what I touch that thing but was really worried about that's been a non-cease fighting can help
They would say anything oh yeah, there's the two handlers right off the
True guns. Yeah, they asked us to actually take that down
That's just take that down. Don't share that ever again. It's like, all right.
I like good things because you touched it.
Yeah.
Could you please, we don't want the first people to touch
this to be the first ever.
Whose trophy is that?
The club World Cup.
Yeah, how does that differ from the other World Cup?
It's the first time ever happening, yeah.
Who won it this year?
In America.
No, it's happening in the summer.
June.
First time ever.
It's actually four shoot.
Sounds awesome. awesome teams are
competing white caps the crew the sensei storm it's like oh it's an actual
world these are the real teams playing since he storms play that only team
from the MLS that are in it are inter Miami and the Sounders and then LAFC is playing in a match that if you get in this tournament you basically get 10 million dollars so whoever wins this match is for 10 mil.
Okay so it's a lot going on soccer. And I would say the trophy, I felt it, it's a real deal.
100 million to the winner as well. 100 million to everyone. Wait who gets the money? The team owner? Who gives the money? The players all get it. I assume there's a slotted percentage for
the players. I would assume. Yep. Yeah. Okay. 100 million. Yeah. 0.05%. Where's that money
coming from? They wanted to make it a billion dollars. That's what they wanted. Who's financing
this, Duke? Who's coming from? Who's financing that? Sports, baby! That's where we want to go with it. It's FIFA, baby.
Big investment in sports, baby!
Come on!
We like these.
$100 million tournament that just got created.
We like that.
Why not?
Is this the second biggest one behind the World Cup now,
or behind CONCAAFA?
Yeah, it'll be up there for sure.
World Cup, CONCAAFA, club MLS championship.
Gold Cup.
And then the club World Cup. FIFA club World Cup World Cup got it TST. Oh, yeah
And then that's up here and then the World Cup TST is about to happen. Hopefully
I don't know if my lungs or legs know that hopefully hope we're not expecting cleats to touch my feet this year
But we were so you know, I thought you're I thought you're putting a good 60 70 minutes a game
Well, that's not how long the games are. Thanks for paying
That could be there's no ending, you know, I kind of do the ending. Oh, yeah target time. Yeah, that's great
Yeah, all soccer should be target scoring
Also also need to be prepared for the possibility of t wolves at pacers game one of the nba finals
Yeah, I might have to be there for that
Mm-hmm that's happening the same time as TST might be some carry indie
Transportation show up in jeans. Let's go boys. Mm-hmm. I got touch the pitch one time with the arena boys
Yeah, no doubt. I know meeting the boys are ready for a TST
Mm-hmm. I don't know if the rest of TST fully understands what we did with this team this year FOSSA want to work complete overhaul
Yeah, FOSSA. Well, we learned we learned the sport. We learned the tournament a little bit. It's like what's everybody else doing?
Oh, we have too many. This is like a lacrosse conversation. Yep. Bingo. We have too many big field guys
We need box field guys
Arena guys just like lacrosse the whole thing and it's like that's who kind of understands this the most especially with the goalie work
Wait, you sure fucking goalie
Not that stoner and the boys weren't fantastic. Yeah loved our goalies last year, but they were big field goalies GG. Oh
Tony Tony's coming back Tony. No
Hopefully will be coaching the team. Yeah coach slash goalie
I don't think he's getting on the pitch but would like him to if he's up to it
I like him put his little finger saver gloves on
You'll get out there
I like him do his backflip to that he used to do back in the day at the coin toss
We want to flip for it, but I'm telling me all hits back flip. Yeah, we'll flip for it
How about that? Give me the ball and we'll move forward
We have another assistant coach that has been added to the roster that people know and then obviously manager gumpino
There to keep the refs in line Peter Chech and now I thought Gigi before
It's not the food or Peter Chech is somebody better in both of remember you guys thinking big soccer again
You guys think it's not sure but goalie. Oh, Gigi. We can do yeah, but this guy can play with his feet
Target time target score brother Dominic has do anything. Yeah, but this guy can play with his feet big time in target time. Target score, brother.
You guys bringing in Dominic Hasek?
Yeah, basically.
Basically.
Smaller goal.
Basically, with a full men about the basket.
Yeah.
Feet like Nuara.
Just know, we got a team this year.
Are we going to go further?
You guys had a pretty good run last year.
Yeah, OK, Foxy, it feels like you said that because you
know what the answer in my mind is.
Yeah, I mean, that was amazing last year. And I'm just wondering if you guys are going to do better, because that know what the answer in my mind. Yeah, I mean that was amazing
You guys are gonna do better because that's gonna be tough to do hi there was of course they will thank you AJ That's really good answer out of you. There's chance for me in my eyes the way I viewed this was
We had a hell of a run
We had a great time. Yeah, fuck it legit magic. Great team things are great
We're gonna be we're gonna be able to replicate that we think
we got a lot of depth this year to be fair we ran out of gas late in that tournament last year we
had guys playing full game boom and mike fos went to work started building up the roster and he's
like this is what the roster could be if we want to do this and it's like oh we got better the issue
is i think the other teams did too sure so i So I think this TST thing was on. It was a spectacle was it not? I mean that was that was an
awesome event I think. Very cool to watch in person. I don't know how what it's
like watching it screen. Actually I did I saw when I got went back I watched you
guys play after I went home. It's still cool on TV honestly because of how it's
set up and small and then what do you call the target time at the end just
makes it all worth it. Yeah cuz any team can win. You're never out of the game.
That's why I love it.
No matter what, you're never technically out of it.
And they're eliminating players.
Yeah.
Goes down to that.
Wasn't it two on two in the semis or the championship?
It was nuts.
And you need your goalie.
Because if not, one of the players
has to put on a penny goalie.
It's just a bunch of, it's like a chaotic scene.
But if you have a goalie that can play,
it's like that's a massive benefit.
Not that our goalies weren't great goalies.
Guy stood on his head, if I remember, last year for us.
But I think it was Stoner.
And then immediately upon target time,
we had to take meat off the field,
need meat on the field.
Had to take meat off the field.
Then he had to sub back in to be goalie.
And he scored like three or four goals for us from goalie, but he was also off the field for like four or
five minutes in like the most important time because he had to do the whole
thing. So we learned, we learned, but I think we're not the only that TSD
tournaments very well done. Yeah, there's some teams trying to cheat as well this
year, so we'll see how that goes. Why aren't we doing that? I think we are. We're trying to cheat.
No, I've seen some guys on these teams that are actually under contract with pro
teams, so I don't know what that's all about. Oh, can you decide some of those guys?
Breaking report, but hello. Yeah
Did you interfere? That could be us could be it could become KFA to be clear
Yeah, I don't know what Mike Foss is up to behind the scenes. Okay, he's general man acting general manager of
concafe SC
Yeah, maybe he was the one that got involved in the Lionel Messi in her Miami negotiations said hey
We got something for you TST pal. Make sure they have a slot in that contract
We can come play for us
Or maybe he just says I don't want to be on a contract with anybody so I can play in TST
Because that is the rules you can't be on a contract in a main division or
Something like that. I forget what the on a team
Yeah
So there's a lot of guys last year that were getting signed like a week before TST to these teams because they were on like a
Premier League team and then their contract runs out and it's like hey you want to come play in TST for us?
Sure, there's like five six guys that were playing international at a high level that were signed like within a week to these other teams
I didn't know what's happening this early though
I didn't know we were able now that we are able to do this might have a general manager a team to say hey
Have we snooped around with Lou Messi? Yeah, don't think about Steve Nash point. I
Don't know Steve Nash's because Jade's have a team
Let's hope that's a he's actually banned for the term
Let's hope that's a layup point. I think he's actually banned for the tournament.
I was going to say, after last year, I don't know if they want him banned.
He's out of town.
The watch raised some hell down there.
Yeah, almost killed the guy.
He was so big.
Watching him attack people that had the ball in person, I was like, I saw him.
I'm like, Jage, I had a great time watching you play.
You played so hard.
He played a lot.
He played lights out too.
He was 100% the whole time.
I almost scored a goal. And we said, shut up, Jage.
Cause he played in the first game,
at the same time as us.
How'd it go?
He said, I almost scored.
I'm like, Jage, shut up.
And then we watched the replay.
It's like, he did.
He did.
Guy was scoring then against Concafe.
He was playing in the extra time.
Oh yeah.
Goals.
He had a goal?
He was playing the whole thing. It was like, Jage, Jesus, I had no idea you were in this good of shape. Oh, yeah goals. Yeah to go. He's playing the whole thing. It was like Jade's Jesus
I had no idea you're in this good of shape their team lost inevitably. Yeah, we gave him hell the entire game
I don't think he was
There's him falling
Just falling the shit get up what a Zack this guy's representing United States of America right now. I think it's what's
Same with me. See back. I believe Zach will be back the
arena boys I believe are back in time okay yeah JJ went for Gordo that was a
bad move by him yeah yeah that's that yeah that and JJ yeah they had a nice
big battle is that the that's probably the two biggest dudes bumping into each
other on a soccer pitch in the history of soccer probably good. Yeah good chance. I mean
Maybe like Puyo van Percy, you know throwback sure
Well said well said that's a legitimate pull. Maybe Zizou
Zizou sure what did Zizou do in his last game fucking he Zizou'd everywhere
Everyone was like where's this guy going? Is he zigging? Is he zagging? No, he's zizouing Zizou would have fit in well with the concaved for team
Yeah, need him. He actually headbutted a guy in a World Cup. Oh, Zidane Zidane. Oh, that's his name is Zizou
I knew that. Bonjour Zizou. I knew that if you said Zidane, see I'm a formal guy when it comes to soccer
I don't know all the nicknames, you know, I'm not I'm not that in the loop Oh, you're kind of 30 000 foot view. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, I like to check in on my footy guys
Tst coming up in very short amount of time
I was looking up things on that can make me lose 30 40 pounds
And then what can make my lungs better? Okay in a week and a half or whatever it is. That's it
Two weeks out two weeks out still both those same
But you got some good results get some good answers on that
The internet always has the answers. I did find some things. I ordered them. I want them all
We'll see if they work
Time will tell you know time will time was really did you see this age? It's nasty
It's like you tore your peck or something. I know what do you think it was legit?
Yeah, I think it was the elbow you were talking about. I think it was that weird elbow
He threw but he you're right. He definitely has internal bleeding so he might be in the hospital. We don't know
This chance I had to guess
What if I think it's on the inside?
What's happening?
Sorry, he knows bruises on the yours are out on the outside hits on the inside
No, we don't know he wore a full shirt the next day didn't yeah, yeah, you might have one tonight
Yeah, we'll see we'll see what it looks like tonight
With the card tonight great Monday that roll off in South Carolina. Yeah, shame is back. There's a banger coming
Oh, yeah him and Grayson couple bangers
So shame is you know lad of the program friend of the program, after the Gunther fight
comes up to me, he goes, fella, you know, you could have practiced on my chest if you
wanted to.
Because that was first time ever.
So what you saw was first time I've ever, what he was and-
Yeah, chop him.
Ever.
Hand hurt so bad.
And the first one, I'm like, holy shit, How's this going to go for the rest of the match?
And just goes numb, by the way, which almost helps it. It almost helps it. You start throwing
that thing around. You don't get feeling at all or whatever. But that was the, so the, that was,
look, you see right on his chest. You see it. You see that? He's bleeding a little bit, I think too.
Bingo. Thank you. Cut him. Took a lot. Gave some. Yeah, that was a big one. Yeah, that was a big one
So I wonder if he had already bruised my yeah, Jesus always Jesus always. I need to take that down. Thanks Foxy. He's
Jesus Christ, it's always same clip
Fucking whole fucking match. It's always that same clip. I just go watch
Time and time and time and time again. Jesus no bruising there yet, but it was already
Time and time and time and time again. Jesus no bruising there yet, but it was already
Bows. Yeah, it was already in pain. But yes, James told me I could have practiced on him
Yeah, but you know what that means
He practices on you. Yeah, keep those receipts. I laugh I sound think so bug because what I said, yeah Well, you would have just let me well, I would have probably showed you. Oh my yeah exactly
I'm gonna try not to do that ever again. Yeah, I'm trying to smarten that situation ever again
But you gotta do what you gotta do. Yeah, hopefully Cole doesn't run his mouth again
So I'm talking about the knee I mean the Knicks he's already
Doing his full shit sure doing his full shit the Mets. I think he's out
Yeah, a lot of people a lot of people are souring on Juan Soto.
Really?
Yeah, I could have never thought this was going to happen.
Juan Soto is the big signing from the New York Yankees to the New York Mets this offseason.
Correct. The Mets locked him up. They spent $765 million on him.
It's a massive, massive contract.
That's how much money he's getting paid?
Correct. Over the next 15 years. Yeah all guaranteed
765 not like a fee to the Yankees for no, no, no, he gets every bit of that
765 million. Oh, he hasn't had a very good start and this weekend in baseball was like the rivalry weekend
So Mets and Yankees played the subway series once Soto went one for ten
Not great. Not really what you're paying a guy seven hundred sixty five million dollars to do he had a
Chain like a base hit in the eighth inning not really a base hit
But he hit one hard up the middle and the guy for the Yankees their second baseman made a diving play and once
So it was just fucking loafing it down to first base gets thrown out people don't love that when you're not hitting
Hey, this is a high leverage situation. We're trying to win this series here. This fucking guy
This fucking guys walking down a first base
He actually did play pretty good in the field
But yeah, you just you can't be paying seven hundred sixty five million dollars for a guy and in the biggest moments
He goes one for ten, you know in a series. Okay, so that's Juan Soto story. Mm-hmm
Now tell me about the Paul Skeen story. Yeah, I mean this is horseshit
Yeah, it is it I explained this to Paul skeins in front of an arena of 12,000 people in Pittsburgh
About how the reason why they are chanting sell the team with you up here is because everybody in Pittsburgh knows
That was how great you are at your job. This means you're gonna get wasted. You're gonna be gone
It's not gonna you're going to get wasted. You're going to be gone.
It's not going to, you're just not going to play here. And Paul Skeen's, his credit coming
into the season was like, I want to change this in Pittsburgh. I want to be the reason
the Pirates changed the way they do business. I want these Pittsburgh fans who have been
great to me to experience what great baseball is like yet again. Because we have the ballpark,
we have the tradition, we have the the Yenzer fucks that would show up Paul skeins bought into all that legitimately perfect ace young
That's what people pretty much
Yeah, let him let him out. Yes. We threw the first complete game of his career only eight innings
Yeah, because they were the they were the away team and they were losing obviously going into the ninth so the Phillies didn't
need to bat in the in the bottom of the ninth but it's one of those things where
he would never say it but he has to be perfect every single time he pitches I
think the stack that's going around right now is in like his nine starts
this year or it's either nine or ten he has 17 earned runs that he's given up which is unbelievable believe the the Pirates I
mean he's three and five right now like so if he doesn't he's just he doesn't
get any run support so if he go and it's tell you what it's done I don't care how
good you are it's very hard to go out there and be fucking perfect and not
surrender any runs every single time you pitch no matter what
But that's kind of the situation he was in then there was the clip going around of him on the edge of the dugout
Yeah, right here. Just like like he knows it. It's like Jesus fucking Christ
It doesn't matter what I do because they don't score a little backpack
They don't score for me and it's like, you know
and and that actually what passing said last week was starting to get picked up a lot
more over the weekend by like a couple baseball like aggregator accounts like I
Think they're gonna trade him sooner than later because like for a guy like him like he just I mean
He doesn't want to do this shit, you know, let's go to a Pittsburgh Pirate fan for his entire life
Anthony de Jolio you were a part of the sell the team chance
in PPG paints arena you're obviously a person who was a pirate fan whenever
they were terrible at baseball because you were a part of the once number four
ranked in the country high school baseball team. I wish it was four we were 20
24 but still good for Pennsylvania. Top 25. For PA that's pretty good. Go Mustangs we're all
Mustangs here. Love baseball love the Pirates the Paul skein situation is obviously one that's putting a focal point on what the Pittsburgh Pirates have been
Under this ownership. Yeah this whole season
I wasn't let my myself get too close to Paul because you know, I knew what was gonna happen
But after seeing what was happening this whole season, they did nothing for him. I've've decided I I think I kind of wrestled with this yesterday I think I'm no longer a Pirates
fan I'm just gonna go join whatever team Paul goes to I think I'm gonna just
gonna change fans I saw I saw a tweet and I think you're mocking that tweet
right now no I agreed with it okay because I do believe the people in
Pittsburgh will feel connection with Paul Skeens forever yeah I saw that tweet
and I agreed with it. So yeah.
Yeah, so whenever the tweet, there's a tweet that came out that was like,
I don't think the Pittsburgh Pirates are taking into account that whatever team
Paul Skeens goes to, a lot of Pirates fans are just going to become a fan of
that particular team. I think, uh, I think it's probably an accurate assessment.
I think a lot of people will be Paul Skeens fans.
As long as his ownership group is still the owners, then yeah.
These people fucking suck.
He's a guy. Yeah, and they knew that last year and they did nothing.
He's a guy. They haven't paid shit to anybody. He's the guy. They brought Kutch back.
And think about him mentally. Kutch is a dog. Obviously we like Kutch, everything he's done for the Pittsburgh Pirates.
Think about mentally for him.
Just like at LSU, at the SEC, those stadiums are all in front of 30,000
people. Indianapolis here, they were upping the prices of AAA baseball
tickets. People were just filing in the city to watch this guy. And then in
Pittsburgh, if he's on the road it'll be in front of a lot of people because Paul
Skeen's coming to town. But in Pittsburgh it's like we don't even want to
support the owner is what everybody's saying., we don't even want to support the owner,
is what everybody's saying.
So we don't want to show up or buy tickets.
They're almost like protesting the Pirates because Paul Skeens is there.
But Paul is, you know, it's like a...
He's kind of the, he was kind of, he's kind of the nail in the coffin
because, you know, people were mad before, but they were like,
oh, you know, whatever, are we we actually gonna be able to do anything?
But now that you have this unicorn and you once you like you perfect for the city
Yeah, yeah, and then you do you still do nothing then it's like, okay
Like Tyrese Halliburton perfect for India Indianapolis and the Indiana Pacers like perfect
Perfect match coach Carlisle
Perfect coach. This is the type of like when you have have that, it's like a good situation, you know,
I think best situation.
Paul Skeens is like perfect for Pittsburgh.
Like that is literally, he likes it, doesn't mind whore work,
mustache sometimes like the whole thing,
America let's go, like gritty, like everything about him
is like, this guy is perfect for the city.
And it's like, well, ownership doesn't think or care.
So it makes it worse. It almost makes the whole thing worse because it's like well ownership doesn't think or care So it makes it worse
It almost makes the whole thing worse because it's like how how do you ever have hope as a Pirates fan if you got this?
Dude, who's he is demand and this is what happens
So all of a sudden I'm gonna trade him away and now then what just then you do got to sell the team
Well, that's why I think people don't really cuz like he is he is the guy right now
But like the Pirates have been in this situation multiple times.
Like Garrett Cole was Paul Skeen's 10 years ago.
Glassnow.
And yeah, Glassnow. Same thing.
It's like that's what happens. These guys aren't appreciated by the Pirates.
They leave. They go win a World Series somewhere. They win a Cy Young somewhere else.
But like with Skeen's, like I mentally I can't imagine what it's like.
Cause like he-
He could start any team.
He would be the ace for
Damn near any team. Maybe maybe you know, yeah
He'd be the best pitcher in the rotation for damn near every pitching staff in the major
And he doesn't care about any of that
Okay, he snaps in plays baseball like that is what he does but there has to be people around him that are like
Dodgers in front of 40,000 people
But there has to be people around him that are like, Dodgers are in front of 40,000 people.
Paul's game, imagine Paul, the athlete that he is.
In front, like that juice is, I assume.
Oh yeah.
Games that matter.
That's when you see guys throwing like,
oh, he's got a little extra, like last night,
you know, the Yankees starting pitcher,
who they paid a bunch of money for.
He throw his fastballs usually like 93, 94 miles an hour.
They're playing on Sunday night baseball against the Mets.
His first fastball of the night. He's throwing 98
You know, it's like those guys you get up a little bit and it's like oh shit like this
This one matters a little bit more but D butts keeps buying the hat in this ownership
You talk about like the legacy part of it too like it's unfortunate but like, you know
his strikeout numbers will be insane his eRA will be insane but like
He's not winning games because they don't fucking score runs for him
So, you know like he have you might have one of the best
Seasons of any pitcher in the MLB this year and he might end up going like 9 and 13 and like that's just not right
You know, can he hit he can hit right used to hit well, I got they got rid of the the you know pitcher hitting
But he could he could pinch hit on one of his off days
When he's pitching he needs to do like Devers for skeins right now. I know who that is socks. The answer is no
We're gonna need 14 first-round pitch. Yeah, that ain't happened all of them. No, you want to establish players? Okay
We we don't do that. You gotta pay
Yeah, what are you talking about? Well, that's the thing.
It'd be one thing if the owner was like, you know what?
For like two, three years,
we'll eat into these gross profits
we're making every single year.
And we'll pay a competitive roster and go front.
And then, you know, if it doesn't work out,
you reload, you rebuild, you sell off,
and you recoup those gross, fat stacks of cash that you're getting from the league every year
But they don't they just continuously year after year just collect collect collect and let everyone
Walks through the stadium and they say fuck you. Yeah all the Pittsburgh's look what he did to the bricks
Yeah, it turns out that was a lot. Oh, they came I do it about the bridge
They came to them and they were like, hey, would you like to like do something special with these bricks?
Like I know we're gonna get rid of them and he was like nah fuck it throw them away
And then that guy was like, oh that was like, you know, a very special memory
I had with my my deceased father and he's like, oh, sorry. We had no idea. We'll try to find it for you
Yeah, it's at the bottom of the river
You're all right Steens what they did with that paces are in the conference finals
Find a new drink gives a fuck about baseball right now. Yeah, I mean you're right, but for a guy Paul scheme
I feel bad for I do it. It doesn't we should let the world know that hey this guy
Okay, don't have a winning record not gonna be the playoffs
He's really good. They what nights like tonight when you don't have basketball and you don't have hockey, you know, you're my day
I roll exactly exactly
But you're wishing you know that Paul skeins is pet jeans is on the bump and you can watch it
Yeah for the Dodgers imagine a great for the Dodgers
Well, we don't need that but sure his other half won the fucking Don Fitzriff. Could you imagine show? Hey, Tony?
Fucking skeins pitching them in the dugout yucking it up just talking shop
How'd he go? It feels like more of a Boston guy. Well, that's what Connor's trying to please
I mean he genuinely does and the Sox actually do have a lot of young really good players
So like we are I mean, I'm not gonna say it this year
But like there there is hope on the horizon for the Red Sox big time and they do spend money. It'll be Yankee
There's a chance for sure. Yeah, I mean, it's gonna be very aggressive pursuant. He's not have mustache, right?
They actually changed that he can have as much facial hair as he wants now
Well, that's gonna matter when you get Paul schemes in there saw that down the line soon as he got in the measure
Yeah, let's change this. Oh, yeah
Yeah, let's get a couple years. We can't say we did it just for Paul
Mm-hmm, but it will certainly be the case.
Because when Gary Cole came, he had the big beards. He looked terrible.
He did. And then he shaved it. He looked so much better.
Who is this fat face guy we just gave $325 million?
Isn't it crazy how much you can change your look? James Harden with a beard, wildly different.
Like Tim Mack, if he had a mustache for a long time as a kid growing up, shaved his mustache. I was like who who?
I didn't know that's what above your lip below your nose looked like.
Then he had a beard there for a bit, shaved it, whole new person.
I mean when you had to shave your beard for a costume.
Oh my gosh. The worst. Yeah, the worst.
I'm happy we ran with that.
Yeah, it was worth it.
I'm happy that wasn't a full bullshit rib feels like still to this day.
To this day feels like it.
Flat back off a cage. That felt like one too.
Shave your face.
It'll be great.
Nah, we're not doing that anymore.
Are you guys gluing my facial hair back on?
No, it looks great.
You look young man. No I don't. That's why I keep it.
Looks terrible.
All right.
Good Monday.
Yeah.
Indy 500 this week.
Yeah, it's Race Week's favorite.
Oh.
Get the flags out.
They've been out.
Who's the favorite?
What's that?
Who's the favorite?
So, depends on how you think about favorite.
You know, who's sitting on the pole is a little bit different than who's probably the favorite.
A rookie is currently sitting on pole is a little bit different who's probably the favorite. Yeah a rookie He's currently sitting on the pole. Mr. Robert
Schwartzman out of Israel Tel Aviv Israel
rookie is
the leader
And sitting atop of the pole position
For the Indy 500 first time in 40 years that a rookie has won the pole he averaged
232 miles an hour point something over a four lap qualifier
He's in there now. There was a couple cars that were not allowed to qualify
Penske cars
Joseph New Garden previous Indy 500 winner was not allowed to qualify
To sit on pole because they had done something to the engine or welding something
That was ill deemed illegal said they were not something to the engine or welding something that was deemed illegal,
so they were not allowed to qualify, although they are in the race. That is Joseph Newgarden,
who was not allowed to drive a car, so he decided to take a little jog around the Indianapolis Motor
Speedway. They all live in there or around there basically all year, but definitely during race week,
and it kind of becomes their little community in that track and there's always some sort of drama.
Oh yeah.
Penske owns the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, he owns the IndyCar League and he owns cars
that are obviously Indy, two of his cars not allowed to qualify.
There's drama.
Yes, yes that happens a lot.
Like Penske, he's quite a character.
So whenever he buys it he loves Indy car and he loves the car and cars in general
So a lot a lot of Indy car people were happy that he bought it because he's gonna care for it and everything like that
But Penske still a dog. I mean he is still trying to win everything
Ganassi obviously out there go ahead pal
Don't say the the drama today is I saw they they Joseph Newgarden's car from last year, that one,
in the museum or whatever. They went and looked. Same exact thing that got him DQ'd yesterday is on that car from last year.
See, there's always some type of drama. There's always some type of drama in there. The museum obviously, a beautiful thing.
The Indy 500 in the Indianapolis Motor Speedway is something that obviously this
state loves. It's the largest sporting event in the world that this city hosts literally downtown
Indianapolis every single year and I from Pittsburgh did not know a lot about it before I moved out
here. These drivers are fucking insane. They are literally strapping themselves into rockets.
Yeah. Into rockets and just, obviously, this massive oval,
in one little slip or one loose, like, bolt
or one shift of wind can just flip your car into a sail.
Literally, you're flying through the air.
Colton Herda, on Friday, ended up crashing into a wall.
Who knows what happened?
Maybe just a little piece of wind.
He's done bang, shoom, through the sky, he's on his head.
They have a shot from inside the cockpit
where he's literally just flying with debris and fire
and sparks going over his head, boom.
It used to not have that rail there,
it used to be completely open wheel racing,
which is why they talked about it, just 236 miles an hour,
that guy was going right there.
And then bang, all of a sudden you're on your head.
He wasn't the only one.
McLaughlin on Saturday, I believe he was practicing
or maybe during a quality, boom, he's up on his head
and then flipped over and then thrown down the track.
Can happen just as easy as that.
They're trying to figure out weight at all times.
They're trying to figure out wind.
They're trying to figure out jet streams.
They're trying to figure out where to turn, how to turn.
And obviously McLaughlin ends up in the air flying through the sky.
And then I think everybody remembers from the Indy 500, one of the greatest of all time,
Scott Dixon in 2017.
I think a back wheel ends up bad for somebody else.
He ends up crashing into another car.
Once again, they're going 220 plus miles an hour here, 230 miles an hour.
Boom, he didn't do anything, was just trying to get out of the way. into another car. Once again, they're going 220 plus miles an hour here, 230 miles an hour.
Boom, he didn't do anything, was just trying to get out of the way. He ends up flipping up over
top of a car, traveling 100 yards plus, landing on top of the barricade where he was sitting.
And then that's during the Indy 500. So obviously there is a hush amongst 400,000 people that are
in there. And then somehow these guys get up and walk
away and then they find another car to get themselves into so they can finish
the race going 200 plus miles an hour. The Indy 500 is a spectacle. Obviously the
science and everything around the cars are insane but the drivers are so
courageous. I have no idea how they strap themselves in there and do it, but it's a spectacle every
single year and Indy 500 Week feels big this year.
Sold out.
109th Indy 500, sold out completely.
And I didn't even know that was possible.
It happened for the 100th running.
This one also sold out.
So it's about to be a big one.
And a rookie being on the pole is a massive ordeal for the sport, AJ.
So it does feel like this one, like it feels like it's almost a month long Indy week like Indy the whole 500
I feel like I've been hearing about it for two or three weeks now, but
How long yeah it is I got your flags up in May I get it
But how often does the pole sitter tend to win this thing?
They win that often so the statement is always like Indianapolis Motor Speedway will pick who wins because there's so many crashes it's like this track will decide basically who's gonna win so
early there's a big one early there's always a big one that knocks out like
ten people you just gotta hope you're not a part of it so if you're in the
front I guess technically you should be able to stay out of the shit 21 times
it's happened in the 108 races the last time was 2019 with Simon Pagino.
Oh, Pagino, we beat him.
He's good racing.
So it should be an awesome spectacle on Sunday.
And it's not blacked out here so we can watch it on TV.
For now, we'll get there.
That's a big deal.
Is Larson doing the double?
Yes, Kyle Larson will be doing double.
I think Kyle Larson will be coming into studio on Wednesday.
Let's go.
D-Wreck too, right?
Has.
Has.
I thought like last, this week, I thought I saw a video of it. I could be wrong. You wrecked two right? Uh has. I thought like last this week
I thought I saw a video. Thursday maybe? Could be wrong. It's crazy dude all you need is just one.
It's insane. You probably saw f1. Yuki wrecked. Yuki? I didn't see that right in the fence.
Yooka Laylee. That's the shunt. You know Yuki Sinoda. Oh hey wrecked? I didn't know you could
wreck f1. Oh yeah. Really? Big, yeah.
But they were on a track or on like a little...
Yeah, like a rail.
Yeah, one of the best drivers ever, Artin Senna,
he actually passed an Imola out in Italy,
and it was a big, obviously scary wreck.
That's what he just raced this weekend.
But yeah, they have some big...
Oh, yeah.
They're great.
How fast F1 cars going?
Because they're bigger than the Indy cars.
They're bigger and the tracks are, you know, I guess more dynamic have a little more character
But uh, we have straight courses. Thank you. That's about
15 ish to 15. That's it. I think like I said, it's different. It's different on fast. It's different
I mean this guy was rookie. I'm familiar with his name
Work. Yeah, he was a reserve driver enough F1. I remember it through the academy.
So I'm glad he's, you know,
he's found his footing,
having some success sitting on pole.
First time, how many years?
40, 43 maybe.
First time in 43 years.
43.
Sitting on a pole.
So this is like the bad guy in Talladega Nights
is what this is.
No, he handled himself very, very well.
And you know, it would make sense
that the F1 guy would do very well
and there's no other cars on the track sure
That would make a lot of sense
But whatever the case being the fastest at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway first time big deal big deal
Unbelievable and his third lap he was going a little bit slower than his fourth lap
So it's like normally first laps your fastest because your tires in a bus
bit slower than his fourth lap. So it's like normally first lap's your fastest because your tires are the best. Grip matters. Then second lap get a little bit
slower, third lap get a little bit slower, then your fourth lap get a little bit
slower, then it's the average of the four laps. Whatever that speed is, that's how
they figure out who and how you are seated. Top 12, fast 12 or whatever are
kind of racing amongst themselves for who is the top 12 starting positions.
That's kind of what uh fast
saturday, fast friday, whatever the case that's qualifiers. So it's a four lap average as opposed
to just a one lap average which is Schwartzman brought up is like it's hard because it's not
just one lap. Like normally it's just one lap your best shit. This one's four. His third lap he was
going a slower speed than his fourth lap which i don't know how that makes sense because his
tires should be worse for the fourth lap so it feels like he's learning as he's kind
of going much like Kyle Larson was doing last year during the UNI 500. I'm excited to watch
them all. I think it's good for the sport to get that involved. He was asked afterwards
about the country in which he's from Israel and everything going on gave a great answer.
I mean, just like feels like he's a professional
Yeah, yeah, it's a good point by you though
Cuz when since he's in first to start when a car passes him he's gonna what what the fuck was that?
Is someone else on the track with me right now somebody get this guy off what the hell?
We don't get you don't you guys didn't see Vanderstoppins ledger in there all the time.
What did Vanderstoppins do?
He won?
Turn one.
Just the turn one move he put on this weekend.
What did he do?
A slingshot?
Some would call it that.
Shake and bake if you will.
It was a bit of a cutoff move.
The McClarans have been the most dominant car all year long so they had pole position.
He just did his thing and
stepping football from then on out. He won Vanderstopping? He did. Congratulations
Vanderstopping. Nice. Did you see Dell and Lugano were battling this weekend?
Lugano and Dell. I did it. Dell was Lugano was allegedly not happy with the moves. Yeah he's pouting.
Joey was pissed. Joey was pouting about what Dell did and Dell said I'd seen Joey do oh, yeah I seen Joey do worse moves than we're I thought we're doing some good racing. These boys were damn
I mean it was dancing. They're really dancing in NASCAR. It was awesome to watch. I'd say well when the boys are battling
It's awesome. It is great the finish to last year's Indy 500 was fucking sweet where New Garden is moving
Yeah, like trying to battle up front like
that that stuff is really cool enough no drag trying to get people off your ass
like the entire that's what that's like the difference between we have that too
we got DRS we got all type we got all the same well not what she's better
actually okay people just get deterred by the laps that's what people I think it's 500 laps bingo
It's 500 miles. Yeah, so it's not five. It's 200 laps
Yeah, but even 200 people will I feel like even that is so much that people are like, okay
I'll check in at the start and then I'll check in in the middle and I'll check the beginning you need to watch have to
the beginning of it all is
The spectacle at the beginning of it,
the pageantry of the M500, they do that very, very well.
And then obviously the beginning, there's chaos.
Yeah, this is crazy.
Tom Brady doing the flag this year?
He's doing a car.
Oh, okay.
There's a little slingshot.
Yeah, right there.
He's gonna be in the pace car?
Yeah, maybe the, yeah, probably the pace car.
There's like, there's a pace car, then there's an Andretti car that you ride along
There's like two three cars in the front of the entire thing like that. That was nuts. Yeah, they're going 200 to win it
Yes, this is some impressive shit. Any 500 is a real deal. The crowd is really I went through a race
Yeah, I'm Drift. Yeah, it was the crowd is it's crazy. Schwartzman doesn't have a sponsor. Is that we read? No
Yeah, I read from I think Will Buxton.
He said that he does not have like a main sponsor.
I assume that some company will get in.
Yeah, probably last night.
Price just one up.
I don't know how he was able to win the poll
without a sponsor.
I don't know how that happened.
It's crazy.
Like Condom Depot.com will come in and sponsor him
like they used to, you know,
put the fake tattoos on boxers.
What size is that?
Yeah, maybe, condom depot maybe
Big back in the day. There's a chance Lily here in Indy just goes
You want a couple million bucks? Yeah, I think I read his crew chief was working at SpaceX the last two years
Okay, so maybe maybe X gets on board. Yeah, did you see 60 minutes?
The guy that created the Oculus
and sold it to Facebook, has a mullet, first of all.
Legend.
Mullet.
Got fired.
Did you see the sunset?
He was on this weekend.
What's his name?
Yeah, I've seen different things he's doing.
Yeah, what's his name?
He's building the drones now.
He's building the military drones.
For us?
OK.
I think he's selling them.
Oh, boy.
Highest bidder.
Well, we are the highest bidders.
I don't know about that
I think there are some others that have drone game pretty strong as well
But he he goes from making the oculus into making these drones and he's got this beautiful mullet
Beautiful mullet. Can you look up to 60 minutes article of this guy the because is the grooming of his hair in this thing
You know a big plant in Ohio too.
A big plant that they have like all the Intel,
all the, you know, those giant data centers.
He just, he built something here.
Hey, drop the pin there, brother.
Let everybody know, geez.
The fuck?
Oh, it's very public.
It is very public situation.
Yeah, they're huge.
He's building like fighter pilot,
fighter plane sized drones, areas, areas.
That was him.
Look at that.
Aw.
That was him. I'm walking through the living room 60
minutes long because it was post something maybe golf it was post golf
I'm walking through a liver room I see this guy I go what the hell is this
thing and then all of a sudden hear him talk and I'm like oh this is super
genius we got this is super genius and I guess he's now pretty much, I don't know, the way they're making it sound
like he's the one.
He's the merchant of death.
I got good news.
The headline is tech billionaire
wants to remake the US military with autonomous.
Okay, okay, so that's America.
Don't like that either.
Pilots though, I don't love that.
Well, no, there will always be pilots.
Mav will always have them.
I know.
Do we wanna break that?
No.
No. No.
We have huge news.
We bought an F-22.
Yeah.
Bingo.
No, we did not.
No, we did not.
No, not a bad idea.
You get a Harrier jet, you can land it right out there, right outside of Thunderdome.
Bingo.
I've seen one of those at an airport. just see you. Yep. My future is awesome. It's
like I don't know how these crazy. Yeah. I don't know how we are able to do that. The shit that we
have or that's out there that we have no idea about. Exactly. Yeah. That stuff's cool. And we
know about it. The stuff that you don't know about. It's even cooler. The cost of an F-22 Raptor fighter jet is estimated to be between 150 to 190 million.
We did not buy one of those.
Just like that to be a matter of fact.
You know, jeez.
Is that brand new?
It's like 190 million per aircraft.
That tech billionaire was like, how do I make
all the money in the world?
I make these fighter jets.
Just 10 of them. That don't, yeah, I just sell a bunch of those. Ten thousand miles all the money in the world. I make these fighter jets just tenable
That don't yeah, I just sell a bunch of those
Jesus those big brain guys got it figured out. Yeah
We got a massive guest coming on the show this week huge
massive AJ like physically massive or both I think I think I think you would just say a
Goliath yeah a Goliath is on the show this week. Okay, sweet. I don't think he knows
Hogger or assume not right not. Yeah, I don't think AJ knows
Hey, Jay, big guess this week. Wait, okay. You see

Big yeah huge
You know now let's get the fuck out of here one that I Raw, night in South Carolina. It's going to be a huge week.
Yeah.
Cool.
Shots of Tyrese Halliburton.
We'll run that video here to wrap up the program of our conversation earlier from the Pacer
fan named Hans Perez, who was over there in New York wearing his Halliburton jersey and
he got attacked a little bit.
Sure.
Just know that good story comes out of that entire thing because Tyrese Halliburton, that
man is an absolute legend
We'll be back tomorrow with a massive Tuesday huge Monday night raw tonight. Yeah, yeah, I'm eastern on Netflix
We'll be in South Carolina. It's gonna be a thousand degrees down there. I just thought about that
Oh, yeah, look for my face to be a nice color or red potentially like this ram truck right here or this door dash
mug like this Ram truck right here or this Thor dash mug. Not that it isn't usually, but those high
humidity areas really cooked me from the inside and the outside. I'm a little bit worried about
that actually. I should have been thinking about it. I should have been preparing for this all
goddamn day. I feel like I've been properly hydrated. Yeah, you don't even know if you want
to be more hydrated. You're still just sweating. I, there's no prep. You don't even know if you want to be more hydrated because still just-
Sweating all the time.
Making even more sweaty.
I start sweating in some of these places
and somebody will come over and be like,
do you want to pat that off?
And it's like, why?
As soon as I do that, it's coming again.
Just like the pressure washer with the goose shit.
Yep.
Yeah.
We'll be back.
I need this Canadian geese to be.
You just gotta kill them.
Buy a wolf.
Just kill
My monkey put a monkey out there
Scarecrow I had a scarecrow wolf thing that they're supposed to be scared of
Just kill him. He's fucking geese just walked right up to that thing
Actually, you know, we probably would do it just want an animatronic Halloween scarecrow like those six foot things that Tim McAfee's got yeah, I don't know if you heard we got a fucking for
Yeah, I'm Tony they'll see that bear and shit on that bear they know these things are smart well
These things like the gossip to mm-hmm these little Canadian beasts
Out there you could eat them all
Know the poop
All right Let's get out of here big guess this week
If you got any Canadian geese answers send them my way and yes
I know you're gonna say shoot them in the head sure party thought of that. Yep. I've actually fake guns
all of them
They don't even know
All of them. They don't even know.
I'll sit next to Sam and Mackenzie.
Sam's like, what are you doing?
I'm like, that's that this problem could be over.
If I had Jack Carr like abilities
with a gun of some sort, 22 probably.
The issue is with how flat Indiana is.
Yeah, things going right into a window.
Yeah, there is just no,
you got a water on the other side too.
So that's the issue. You got to get a crow's nest yeah
I'm gonna build up a backstop elevated position fire from you watch that car
yeah I don't think Jack cars a lot to kill these things I looked it up you're
not allowed to shoot their hands frozen paintballs at him it won't be any
evidence no yeah I think explode but I'll pressure wash that shit
Cleaner can G's delicious. I don't know if anybody can a engaged. I assume they're very
Greasy like a duck. Yeah, it's a delicacy
or greasy like a
Chicken oh
Nice out there that you'd blow up, right?
I don't know.
Honestly, at this, anything, I know everybody's just thinking about how we kill these things.
You put coke in the bird feeder.
Cocaine?
No, no, I don't think coke.
Cola.
Or either one.
Their tiny little bird stomachs can't handle it.
So there's, there's swans too around and these things are supposed to protect this land.
The swans are supposed to not get along with the geese. Not these swans. Yeah, not these geese either. These, these things are supposed to protect this land the swans are supposed to knock it along with the geese
These ones yeah, not these geese either these these things got no fear. Then there's two bald eagles
It's like yo America. Yeah
Right here. Yeah, every time I go yo
They fly away. Mm-hmm. I'm like, what are we doing? What?
Why don't we do it sitting right here fucking kill them all? Oh, do you have speakers out there?
Tim's taking two of them.
Yeah.
Big ones out there.
I think it's going to be squawking.
So everybody on the lake needs to know that there's a thump coming.
And that is two speakers that Tim McAvee's putting out there
to try to get these Canadian geese.
I'll get out there fucking later and they'll be fucking dancing
for whatever the second is.
They got the most moxie these fucking things
These courageous Canadian geese ain't ever stopped pooping. I don't know when do they just poop all the time?
I think there's poop all the time used to cover our soccer fields back home
See let you Canadians deal with this. We tried get him out of my country
Why what like the feral hogs man you have to get rid of them you have to your feral
hogs you're allowed to hunt you're allowed to send dogs when are we going to open that up on these
it's almost as if yeah those are wild just hanging off the edge it's almost as if the
geese aren't real and they don't want you to kill them to find out what's inside them. All right on that note we'll be back tomorrow. Maybe. Ladies and
gentlemen use the hashtag uh no we haven't come up with one we'll do it
tomorrow. Okay. I was gonna be able to guess who the guest is. We'll do it tomorrow. We'll put some effort
into this giveaway because if you guess who's coming on I think it should be
celebrated. Yeah. Because nobody's gonna expect this person. Yeah. Be a friend tell

Team on me, team on three.
One, two, three, team.
Goodbye.
