Hello, it is Monday, May 24th, 2021. Big show. Hey, a lot to talk about today. Can't thank you enough for joining us. I hope you enjoy the hell out of this show. If you do, please be a friend, tell a friend. If not, just act like it never happened. Let's get to it.

Just a few days ago, I felt as if there was a chance we were in a sports drought. We were in a time where there wasn't gonna be a lot to talk about. Turns out I was 100% wrong. Yesterday was one of the greatest sports days I've had in some time. There was a 50-year-old man trying to climb back to the top of the PGA Mountain. The lefty, the degenerate gambler.

Other stories have been told to me via text messages from A.J. Hawk immediately after his triumph yesterday and his win. But anyways, legendary man, Massive Cavs, hits a 366-yard bomb in closing time to win a PGA Championship and become the oldest human ever in the history of golf to win a major. That happened yesterday. That in and of itself, amazing. Yeah, congrats, Phil.

Amazing. Congrats to Phil Mickelson. The scene became a wild one. It looked like Happy Gilmore while ever he was walking. They said that they shot some scenes from the Legend of Bagger Vance down there at Kewa Island. It looked like a little bit of Bagger Vance at the end of that thing

whenever they were walking down the end. Phil Mickelson, I believe, got bombarded a little bit. bit saw him stressed out a little bit thought his back was hurt from all the drunks that were I didn't see one masked up no no no so a bunch of drunk whites that beat COVID were harassing Phil making it an electric environment Mo Brooks Koepka had quite a bad day. Then he came on strong at the end. It was amazing. It was magnificent. It was like, okay, we have a Sunday.

It reminded us of when Tiger made the run back in the day. It was two nostalgia pops on a golf course when the world needed it most. And you would think to yourself, like, that can't be the only thing that happened here. New York Knicks, Madison Square Garden sold out. How you doing? Keep it moving. Trey Young sucks the soul out of that whole place. But Madison Square Garden all the way back.

How you doing? Keep it moving. Did we beat COVID? Feels like we beat COVID. Not only that, then also LeBron James loses yesterday in Phoenix to one of Kardashian's boyfriends. That guy was on fire. Absolutely. Then the Bruins, they beat the Capitals. Move on. James loses yesterday in Phoenix to one of Kardashian's boyfriends. That guy was on fire, absolutely.

Then the Bruins, they beat the Capitals, move on. Yesterday was an amazing day in the sports world. Honestly thought we had 2,000 things to talk about on this beautiful Monday here on Sirius XM Channel 82, Mad Dog Sports Radio, and YouTube.com forward slash The Pat McAfee Show. But to be honest, a lot of conversation has to happen around two things today as well. Aaron Rodgers is singing karaoke in Hawaii. He's dancing and singing, having the time of his life in Hawaii,

which, by the way, earned and deserved. He's out there with the son of a bitch that's in Top Gun. What's his name? Miles Taylor. And his lady, I guess they're having a blast out there. OTA started today for the Green Bay Packers. He is not there. He is still in the middle of whatever's going on with the Packers.

Who knows if an extension's coming? Who knows if a trade is happening? Right now, he's in Hawaii having a great time, getting exploited by at Aloha.Akoni, who is probably losing his job as these videos continue to surface. I would assume Aaron is not staying at a cheap place. I would assume the workers at this place aren't supposed to, you know, record the people that are staying there and broadcast

it, even if it is fucking Aaron Rodgers, but he's living his best life as a Packers fan at Ty Schmidt. How do you feel about this? Knowing that he's happy, they'll be able to figure things out. Is this a sign of good things that come for the green bay packers or a bad thing for the green bay packers well like you said i mean obviously he's he's earned it he deserves it i'm glad to see that he's happy but you see this you see how happy he is he's strumming that guitar like he's been playing it for 15 years and we got football going on and it does not look like he is in any hurry to either fix that or get back to Green Bay, which I guess I don't blame him, but yeah, it's not great. So that could be the story for us to talk about, okay? Because OTAs are happening.

A lot of buildings are getting filled with players right now. Now, there are still some buildings that don't have any players, but Aaron Rodgers doing anything, getting documented and publicly seen is always going to be. Then another one popped off this morning in other NFL storylines. Shannon Sharp, who is legend of a football player, have no idea how he was a seventh-round draft pick just at the end of the day.

Hall of Fame stud. Him and Skip go after it every single morning, okay? And that is amazing. This morning, Shannon Sharp, I don't know if he called or somebody. Did he call? Yeah, I think so. He calls Julio Jones, who was seen in a Cowboys hoodie this weekend.

He calls Julio Jones on the spot to ask him, hey, what's going on? Because I assume Skip is getting very excited about him potentially being a cowboy and all this. Julio Jones answers, and we get some information out of the Atlanta Falcons Julio Jones situation that is just live on the air and absolutely incredible reporting by Shannon Sharp. Did Julio know he was being recorded or he was live? We have no idea, but I do know this came out of that conversation this morning. What's going on, bro? Man, nothing much.

About to go meet up with my brother, what's happening with you? Man, nothing much. About to go meet up with my brother. What's happening with you? Man, look. You want to go to the Cowboys, Julio? Or you want to stay in Atlanta? Oh, man, no. I'm out of there, man. He's out.

He's out of there. Are you going to? Ideally, where would you like to go? Right now, I want to win. Okay. Well, don't go to Dallas. If you ain't winning in Dallas Julio well then after that actually he he laughs and says oh I already know so there was like quite a shot that whole thing but him saying I'm out of there is that the first time I mean Atlanta has come out it's been you know kind know, kind of, I guess, reported a couple of times. They were asking for a one going into the draft.

That's allegedly out there. Now they're definitely looking to shop him. Now you're, Julio, like, I'm out of there. So I don't know what Chris Ballard is doing. But what Chris Ballard needs to do is get in on the game. And, by the way, I'm sure I'm not the only fan of a team that's thinking this exact thing. We're at Boston Corner. We're thinking this this morning with the New England Patriots.

Get them up there, especially with the whole offensive revamp that they have. Packers, even though your quarterback's singing a little karaoke in Hawaii, you get Julio Jones. That's how you bring them home. You get them two fucking guitars if you want to. People are saying the Niners. Obviously, there's a lot of teams that would want Julio Jones. I think this could become a little bit of a, you know,

maybe a little bit of a who can out-offer who? A little bit of auction, shall we say? Oh yeah, you could say that. A little bit of a, okay, you got one and a three and a four. This weekend, Connor and I were able to go to something that was absolutely electrifying.

Everybody knows that me and my wife sit at home and watch random shit. One of the most random things we've encountered that has become a binge watch for us almost every single week at this point, Mecham Auto Auctions, okay? It's on NBC Sports. NBC Sports actually plays this more than they play Sidney Crosby, which, by the way, I think they should split time equally. But Mecham has become one of my go-tos at this point because I'm a car guy. Love cars.

Then Mecham comes to Indianapolis, okay? So the show is in town. Got a chance to go on Saturday. Connor came. My wife got the tickets all set up. We had a table. We did the whole thing. We walk in there.

Welcome to the fucking show. Yeah. You're literally dropped in there and it's like oh my god this is exactly what you got these cars passing some of them there was a bid for 2.8 million dollars for a car okay and i don't know if it was on the phone on the internet or in the room and they said all right well actually not good enough gonna have to keep going we'll move this one two somebody said, I'll pay $2.8 million for that car down there.

And they're like, yeah, not enough. Sorry, we're going to have to do this later. We're talking electricity. You're talking, it was awesome. It was amazing. If a Mecham auto auction

comes to your town and you like cars at all, I'm a big fan of cars. Big, big fan of cars. It is worth the watch. Just the shit that they have there behind the scenes and everything. But what I didn't realize from watching on tv that i got to experience live is

the quarterback of that whole thing okay the lead man oh yeah the uh what is that the the auctioneer no yes but you just gave it away but the um who sings uh in the band who who sings in the band like vocalist lead singer what? Vocalist? Lead singer? What is it? Like the front man? The front man, the star of this entire auction is the auctioneer, okay?

And they get up there and their mouths, I don't know how the hell it operates. I don't know how the hell it goes. It's one of the most impressive things, but they are controlling the room, okay? And then you've got these little guys and girls around the room

and they're supposed to find the people in their area who potentially. And by the way, there's seats up here too, so there's people up in the crowd. It is a real thing. And I think the auctioneers are communicating with all these people at the same time, and they're saying things. There was this one particular guy. He has a cowboy. They had numerous auctioneers up there.

Cowboy hat on, all right, all right all black flipping the hammer pointing at people a couple of those he came over as soon as we walked in i tweet the auctioneer at this place is a weapon he comes over shakes my hand we're talking country boy now hey we got this guy doesn't have twitter all right done doing this shit gave me a card he said hey here's my card you ever want to reach out have me on or ever want to reach out for anything good i said hey any chance to come on the show today he said yes ladies and gentlemen the most electrifying human i've ever watched live matt morgan how are you pal good pal how are you guys doing okay so where are you just went right back to the woods so you go auctioneer here in

indianapolis and you go right back into the woods right there it looks like you're in a you're in the middle of a camp somewhere in a cabin somewhere. Where are you, Matt? Oh, I'm in my bar up in my barn. Oh, that's beautiful. You're a Miller Lite guy, see? Oh, well, yeah,

I've got Miller Lite. We've got Bug Dry, Coors Lite, everything. There's a little bit of everything in here. Well, AJ Hawk's going to be pumped about that Miller Lite.

He's an influencer for them. Matt, when I walked into that auction, I had no idea what to expect. I might have been on cloud 30 or 40 when we came in. Got home late from SmackDown as well. When I walked in there, though, the environment was, we're talking,

it was awesome in there. You're up there with it. I did not know what to expect. Is that what it's like every single week with Mecham? And you guys just kind of travel around and do this everywhere? is it the same result it was magnificent to be there in person matt we travel all around the country we hold auctions just about every corner of the of the lower 48 but yeah you want to you want to create an electrifying environment you're talking people

into spending like you're just saying before 2.8 million on a car, and I've got four minutes to sell it to you. So I'm not just going to walk up and say, well, would you like to bid $2.8 million? Or I'm going to bid $2.8 million, or I'm going to bid $9 million, or I'm going to bid $3 million. Now I'm going to bid $3 million. Come on, give it to me. Okay, that got you up out of your seat. That makes you want to bid. Causes momentum. Momentum causes people to give more than probably what they're willing to give on the spot or even in thinking when you come into a room and you see a Duesenberg Model J and you think, I need that thing in my garage. so we as auctioneers as the people on the floor what we call the ring men or the ring women or ring persons we need to create that environment of excitement and Mecham is more than just an

auction it's an event it's a lot of entertainment an auctioneer told me years ago the auction business is 90 entertainment and 10 bs well let's talk about the 10% BS then, because as you're up there, do you have to practice? Are you assuming you have to practice that, or is that just a natural thing? How did you get to the point where you're able to 10? How'd you get to that point there? A lot of practice, but I was born into a family of auctioneers. My mom and dad owned an auction business. I've never seen them, dude. Let's go. Are you the LeBron James of auctioneers. My mom and dad owned an auction business. I've never seen them, dude.

Let's go. Are you the LeBron James of auctioneering? I'm sorry? Are you like the LeBron James, Peyton Manning of auctioneering? Like, did they know from a young age, hey, Matt's going to have it. He's got it. This guy's going to have it. Did they know that?

Have you been, like, bred to be an auctioneer at this point? Yeah, kind of. When I first got into it, Mecham was a lot smaller. It's been family-run since day one, which I like about it. I think the best auction companies out there are family run businesses. we kind of worked our way up to that status with our clientele and eventually got into the mainstream the company grew three four hundred percent and here we are today but yeah i was i was recruited young because i worked with some of the auctioneers that worked for the company at the time and there i was i started working with a couple of them when i was 13 and they're like you on the road with us someday so yeah i was, I was the Tiger Woods maybe since everybody knew about him.

He was an up-and-comer. Okay, he's coming on the scene, coming on the scene, and here we are. Well, I don't know what you do with your personal life, but stay away from the Denny's because it could get you. If you're the Tiger Woods of auctioneering. We're talking to Matt. Or like turkey hunting this morning. Oh, hey, how'd we do?

How'd you do how'd you do uh too windy stunted them they went off the other direction uh can you call them back hey fight the lance and win a little bit there turk uh because when you're saying those things and i think you know i mean everybody knows about auctioneers i've been to you know a couple galas or whatever and they've asked me to auctioneer and like try to mc and kind of run it up or whatever it is an impossible gig okay it is impossible that you using your voice though inflection and like getting people ready to go i was bullied into buying the jeep that i buy i mean buy buy the auctioneer he was like oh you

don't look like a guy that's going to quit. He actually said that you guys say things in between the numbers. I think that's what I was. It's hard not to just pay attention to you guys the entire time, by the way. You sit in there and me and Connor and my wife, like cars were going. You get a look at him. You're like, oh, that's an awesome car. Not one I'm going to buy. And then you immediately just watch the auction.

It's like you're a live show. And the words, you guys are saying things in those quick little beats. Like I think I heard a couple of times like gun anymore than blah blah blah blah blah like you're like there's little how what are you saying in there does that change do you pre do you have to write that shit down beforehand or is that just all coming naturally while you're up there you got to figure it out well for me it comes natural but it's they're called filler words and filler phrases so an auctioneer school the basics they're going to teach you uh one got her down two got a bit now three got a bit down four and then

with enough practice you can start throwing in filler phrases like i'm bid anybody want to give so i'm bid anybody want to give one i'm gonna get to you you you you speed it up and you add to it and for me i don't even i really don't think about it i can be up on the block thinking about uh you know what i think we should probably go to this some restaurant downtown let's make reservations for seven but i i don't really think about what i'm saying up on the block unless something's going on maybe one of my maybe one of my ring guys are talking with you and i might i might throw a little bit in there hey better get out of it i got watching me better get a video you're going to be on his podcast tomorrow i'll give it about to get to you

oh that is awesome yeah we can we communicate we say things all the time on the block that a lot of the public doesn't catch but a lot of the ring people will because they know me i'm gonna say something completely off the wall and they're gonna oh he talked about that yeah you're right yeah we get laughs all the time so all those ring people in there you up there the people that are running the cars moving the cars they all travel every single week that's everybody is kind of together there because i think whatever you and i chatted you said something about maybe 21 years or 2013 you go on up to the block i forget when but you used to be one of the uh ring uh person yeah and then you kind of like moved up onto the block to be an auctioneer but

then we walked around the building there was people auctioning off like uh postcards in the back there's like so is that it's it's very similar to the wwe now very obviously different worlds or whatever but it feels like is that just one big family on the road because we talked to one person they're like uh debbie will actually help you with that or whatever and they're like when you see debbie show now and then david will be it felt like everybody was together is that you guys just pick up the whole operation just move it city to city because i think that's why it works so well the only time where it felt like there was a little bit of a delay was after i had bought the jeep that i got bullied into by the auctioneer i mean it was a magical moment but i did get bullied

into a little bit publicly and you know i mean I thought I had the right plan to, Hey, listen, Matt, you came up to me too. You, you told me exactly what was going to happen by the way, Matt, Matt came in, he sat next to me, he came down and we talked a little bit and he was like, you know, some people come in here and they got like a hundred thousand dollars just burning a hole in their pocket. And they're probably going to spend a little bit more, but they're going to get something cool. Then you got some dealers here that could potentially try to make some plays where exactly what you said was going to happen to me, happen to more, but they're going to get something cool. Then you've got some dealers here that could potentially try to make some plays where exactly what you said was going to happen to me, happen to me, you know, literally exactly. But the only thing after I

bought it, buying a car takes a lot like, like signatures and all that. We had to wait like maybe 45 minutes, but doing so we just walked around. Then we go to the back. The closing process was very efficient. It felt like it felt like they all knew exactly what it was it's a machine you guys have over there i'm very thankful as a fan of the show that you guys are doing it right over there though like i think i was very very fucking impressed with what you guys are doing thank you well we'd like to think of it as a well-oiled machine and what you were watching on the other side of the wall that was the memorabilia portion so we're selling cars in one building and on the other side we were selling a lot of car memorabilia

so like when parnelli jones bronco came across the auction block uh later on that day we sold his helmet we sold a lot of the race suits we sold things from his office and everything like that and that was in the other building that i think you were going to refer to our side as maybe the SmackDown. Well, NXT was going on. Yeah. Wrestling fan too. So them guys were, they were holding the huge wrestling fan. Uh, them guys were holding a lot of, uh, a lot of the memorabilia portion in the backside. Uh, my brother was over there. Another, a young lady from the state of Illinois who's a great auctioneer.

I don't know if you got to hear her at all. Another really big guy that was a big boisterous voice up on the block. He was from Pennsylvania. He's helped us with cars for years. So, yeah, we've got a lot's kind of our motto within the company. Mecham is a very, very step-by-step process, and we're very customer-oriented because that's what makes us one of the top auction companies in the world is we want you to come. We want you to experience the Mecham experience. We want you to have fun, be entertained.

Oh, yeah. Like you're saying. And we want it to be a fun process where we want these people to come back. And believe it or not, we actually have what I'd kind of call auction groupies. We have not only just our auction personnel that comes from auction to auction, we actually have followers that come to every single auction across the country. And they will sit in the front row and write down every price, and they watch us absolutely religiously.

It's a show. It's a live show. It is very – because I'm somebody – a lot of people don't know this, but I'm like super cultured. Oh, yeah? Saw Hamilton live. Real deal. this, but I'm like super cultured, dude. Oh, yeah? Saw Hamilton live. No big deal. Real deal.

Yeah, he got killed by Aaron Burr, sir. He's a real son of a bitch. I enjoy watching people perform in front of others because whenever you're standing up, and by the way, the set. Ooh. Awesome set. Top of my eye. I mean, this set is vast. It's big.

It's raised. There's great lighting. They even got their sponsors, State Farm, I think. They're sponsored across the top in like a cool fashion. I mean, it is absolutely beautiful. But you've got to perform because everybody's sitting there like, hey, guy in a cowboy hat, let's go. And then you, for 30 minutes at a time, you guys went in there. It was just like a new show, a new act was happening.

Do you guys all get along all the auctioneers yeah oh yeah yeah we uh most of us most of us between myself and and the personnel on the floor the ring men and ring women they're working down there we we work together most of us on a on a weekly if if not almost a daily basis so we we hold a lot of chemistry and then we bring that chemistry around once or twice a month. We get to work with one another. I see most of these people that I do that I see my own family most of the time. So we're a very tight knit bunch.

Well, it's a hundred million dollars in sales. It just hit the Indianapolis one. I mean, congrats. I'm happy I could contribute that. I mean, the the processing fee, I, I, I seen the stage, you know, whenever I saw that. But, hey, you got to do what you got to do. I would have never seen that cheap if it wasn't for Mecham. What do you have?

Connor was here as well. I think you got a chance to meet him. Yeah, unbelievable job on Saturday, man. I'm sure all the auctions go that well. But there's a few times where you were double tapping the hammer and, you know, you felt like you were really in the zone. Is that how you kind of feel it is when you're double tapping you're just going yeah sometimes i'll wrap on that thing several times i'll get to go on this is long long story short

but we had actually had a uh somebody who served overseas that heard me hitting the gavel too many times he says i gotta leave the room i think there's gonna be shrapnel oh jeez ptsd yeah so i i tend to i tend to rap on a little bit loud but uh but yeah sometimes you know i need to get these people's attention so i'll rap on it three four times or something like that but uh the the gavel thing really has nothing to do with what i'm doing up there it's it's just a prop but it all comes down to with the fall of the gavel when i stay sold that's really when it comes into play but the rest of the time i'm flipping it i'm pointing at this direction or that direction i might be thinking of something but it yeah bro i so listen mbc sports i've watched this a lot of it because

just strictly the cars like the cars are a show in of itself. On your card, you have the Bullitt Mustang. What was it, like, how many millions? 3.4. $3.4 million. The cars are unbelievable. You're talking about, like, seeing cars that you've never seen. The bubble car that was there, the Batmobile. There's, like, such a wide variety of things that are showing up,

because they know the money's in the room, on the phones, and on the internet. So, like, people want to get their shit through there so you're getting to see but they need to have they need to have an iso on that block up there you guys are the show then like the whenever you guys hit a button i think it like a chicken pops up over your head and you even say like i don't pay that chicken and then like the the chicken is on this massive screen like pecking at the person who's contemplating, do I want to spend $250,000 on it? It's like a chicken. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

You do, bitch. It's awesome. It is an incredible show. Go ahead, Ty. Matt, Pat just kind of alluded to it about knowing that there's money in the room. When you guys travel around, do you earmark or look at who's going to be there and say, hey, this is a potentially pretty big fish that we should try to go after? guys travel around do you earmark or like uh look at who's going to be there and say like hey this is a potentially like you know pretty big fish that uh we should you know try to go after and

also uh about like people on the phone does that take you out of the rhythm at all like when you have to kind of placate to who's on the phone as well as who's there live not really we've uh in in the last year with uh the whole pandemic and everything's gone on, a lot of our auctions, we were only able to hold to a certain capacity. And then by choice, a lot of people decided to stay home. And so we have phone bidding on one side of the block. And then we actually have another clerk that's down below that's holding Internet bidding. So it really doesn't take a whole lot out of our rhythm. It's just,

you're just hearing where, where the direction of where the bids are coming from. Cause the clerk that's taking in the internet bids, she's sounding off just like anybody that's out on the floor. So really you, you take it all in stride. It's, it's not really that hard to learn, but it's something that we've definitely, uh, taken into into use here, definitely in the last year. Our phone and Internet bidding has has become so popular now. A lot of people felt that was the way they wanted to go in the last year. But we still we still, as you guys saw, we still have thousands of people coming in attendance because they want to be there and they want to see the cars. But then there's you get the kind of buyers that they want to remain anonymous.

And they were probably there earlier in the week. They saw the cars in person. And then they might go back to their hotel room or they might go back to their house or somewhere. And we do have a lot of anonymous bidders that just want to remain anonymous. And that's okay, too. But we take that all in stride. $160, 000 to the internet that's how it's a very like funny like tagline at the end to the phone that's not in the room

the 2.8 million dollar big goes on thing that was that was insane because i think it was in the room i think it was in the room somebody made that offer might have been on the internet i'm not harrison sure i don't remember but i thought to myself somebody in here just said i will pay 2.8 million today i will write a check for 2.8 million dollars for that car right there and they're sitting amongst us here who the fuck is that like you know what i mean like i i that's i would assume a lot of people are thinking that. Whenever you see me walk into the room, if anybody even knew I existed, but if you see somebody that you know is potentially a big fish, I assume that there is a thought amongst everybody in Mecham like, okay, hey, that person is going to... Like for me, everybody knew I was going to buy a car. I was going to buy

a car on Saturday. It was like, which one? Don't know, but I was going to buy a car. Is that even a thought, a strategy? Or do you kind of just let it play out however it is? Or do you know when some big fish come in there? Yeah, some do. We know a lot of, like I said, a lot of our regular clientele. We know, okay, this guy likes to buy Porsches. This guy is really big on foreign muscle, anything that's fast.

If it's got two turbos in it, okay, we know he's going to bid on it. foreign muscle anything that's fast if it's got two turbos in it or okay we know he's going to bid on it or even even the smaller stuff uh a lot of guys like f body uh camaros and firebirds and so yeah a lot of our a lot of our clientele we do know and if they are there in attendance uh they probably keyed us in a little bit on what they're interested in what they want to buy and yeah we'll we'll key on them we don't want to point them out we don't want to we don they want to buy. And yeah, we'll, we'll key on them. We don't want to point them out. We don't want to, we don't want to, you know, totally call them out because everybody wants to remain and have that level of privacy when they're bidding on something. But yeah, we, as, as professionals, we, you do have to know your crowd. You do have to know your surroundings.

And we, we key to that pretty well. I think with, within our company, we, like I said, we've got a lot of the regulars and they're, the reason they are regulars is because they love the way Mecham Auctions handles them. Connor, after I bought the Jeep, because it was amazing. But I think you guys were in commercial break or something, too, which is great for us, because we have some cell phone stuff

and nobody's really seen it. I mean, I was standing at one point. I screamed. The other person was gone. There was some clapping happening in the arena, and then as soon as I win, really soon it i mean i was standing at one point i i screamed the other person was going there was some clapping happening in the arena and then as soon as i win i sit back down or whatever it's like okay i just fucking bought it i mean i didn't expend i didn't expect to buy a jeep for that much money i mean it is a jeep with a hemi let's go and then the next car comes up and connor's sitting

right next to me he's like i don't know how you're not just buying this thing every single one just because like the energy of just like hey hey how do it you know and it's like, I don't know how you're not just buying this thing. Every single one. Just because like the energy of just like, hey, hey, hey, hey, how do it? You know? And it's like, it's infectious in there. I could see how people want to come back for sure. Go ahead, Connor. Yeah, Matt, you mentioned the increase in the internet and phone sales. Has there been a thought to maybe put up like a scoreboard to motivate one of the groups to, you know, start buying a little bit more cars or no?

Yeah. But Matt, by the way, before you answer that, we were that we were i was at least i mean can't help it but as we're watching we're like well this would be something pretty cool if we could add this would be something pretty cool to add the scoreboard from the internet the phones in the room on who bought what and how much money has been spent would be a great piece of information for people to have i think it might be i could see where something like that could be done you have to talk to our av and our it people about it but great piece of information for people to have i think it might be i could see where something like that could be done you have to talk to our av and our it people about it but i'm sure something i'm sure something like that could be thought of i mean your set is 45 yards long there has to be

it is it's 11 semis it takes to haul that the entire set all of our booths the the set the stage the lighting and everything else behind us the tote board that's behind the one that's usually behind me yeah that board and all the screens that's all interlocked together it's it's 11 semis worth it takes it uh i actually was just talking to one of the guys that's on the crew it it takes them about a little less than a day to put it up when everybody gets in sync and and they they come in but we have engineers that have to design how the lighting hangs from the ceiling where everything's got to go where the wiring's got to come in electricity and all that

so yeah it's it's a it's a process it's just more than just walking in and go okay we'll put up some of this stuff over here we'll put this over over here. Hey, add a scoreboard. That's what we just did. Yeah, we apologize for doing that. Nothing but the utmost respect for what you guys do. Would have never guessed that the first 30 minutes of my show would be dedicated to it, but you guys do a hell of a job, and I appreciate the hospitality. Any way you could give us a brr into break here?

You know what I mean? Like run us into break here you know what i mean like run us into break maybe uh maybe uh yeah just somehow get us into a commercial break here we can do that Come to a close And if it goes on And on and on and on Hi ladies and gentlemen Matt Moore

Thank you Matt Thank you Matt People go through many changes As we get older, isn't that right? Oh yeah. For men, one of the less fortunate changes is that testosterone production begins to naturally decrease

in the body. Did you know this, AJ? I am aware. For most men, it begins around the age of 30 and testosterone production declines by roughly 1% per year. My God. So if you live to 130, you ain't got shit left. No.

Minus 30. Well, if it starts around 30, this is one of those questions on a test where, you know, begins around 30 and the testosterone production declines by roughly 1% per year. So does it start at zero or does it start at 30? That's the thing. This is where they can get you. It's one of them damn word problems.

This is one of those rounds where you're like, oh, wait a minute. Which, can I ask a follow-up? Anyways, I was good at those tests because I always viewed it as me versus the fucking teacher. That's right. I don't know what's going on, but this is me versus you.

Ladies and gentlemen, AJ Hoff. AJ! AJ, how you doing, pal? I'm good, pal. How you pal? I'm good, pal. How you doing? I'm good. Your thoughts on Phil Mickelson?

That was fun to watch, wasn't it? I mean, I was nervous for the dude after Saturday heading into Sunday, but he somehow found a way. I feel bad for old Brooks. You hear Brooks say he got smacked around his knee a little bit, his surgically repaired knee, and it was just too much of a cluster. So hopefully Brooks' knee is going to be all right, too. You're talking about in the chaos that ensued on the uh fairway of 18 there

yeah i read something afterwards where they're asking brooks about he's like yeah it would have been great if i didn't get dinged a few times like he's coming back from this this knee surgery and he said he was i don't know walking gingerly and gonna ice up tonight i would like to let brooks know that that does stink and phil also took a couple shots as well. He was doing some big stretching on the other side with the back. I was worried that he was potentially going to four-putt after getting beat up over there. He might have lost a touch, but he didn't. And for Brooks, I've gotten a chance to ride the coattails of a lot of very important people, very famous people.

I've been in the way of a potential stampede before. It stinks because nobody cares about you at all. You're not there for the same reason they are, but you kind of have to kind of go with the crowd. It's a tough thing to be. Phil Mickelson was beloved on that key while. I mean, it was the lefty chance coming out of nowhere. Now, I think if Brooks, you know,

during the earlier part of the round plays a little bit better, you now he came out hot with a birdie he was like all right here we go brooks gonna take over then he kind of just slid i think maybe it they remain on brooks's side but i think from like whole six and seven maybe all the way through they were like hey this is phil's this is lefty this is legendary in the entire course felt like they hey we're a part of history here. It's going to be awesome. They turned completely, I think. Yeah, after he chipped out of the sand and made that, you're correct.

Yeah, I think that was the feeling. Everybody's like, all right, Brooks, we love you. Hey, you just came back from knee surgery. That's cool. We understand it's major time, which is also big Brooks time. But this is history. We're watching a guy who was forever powerade yeah you know what i mean like forever powerade forever i mean his entire career powerade get this win at 50 be the

story of golf i'd assume move the needle for golf when it always been tiger tiger tiger tiger phil has really come into his own as somebody that the world has liked here as of late whether it's because of social media whether it's because we're getting to learn more about him but that old narrative about phil mickelson that he was just some california douchebag who couldn't beat tiger woods has changed immensely over like the last decade and now tiger Woods is tweeting like hey that's incredibly inspiring I assume Tiger seen that seen the pop from the crowd seen everybody follow him was incredibly proud and happy for Phil I think they're very tight at this point but man what a

moment for Phil Mickelson had to feel great to finally just be like it was all worth it and I think you said that 15 years or something like that he'd been doing something and as he got older he continued to dream and blah blah blah i mean it was it was very cool to see very cool to watch and this just goes down as another legendary thing that phil mickelson's a part of and i'm happy for the guy well i'm kind of surprised that nobody at the age of 50 has won a major until now like phil's the first guy to do it but i think everybody was on phil's side right from the jump he had to get an exemption to get into this tournament he didn't qualify to make it and i think when he came out of the gates hot everyone started thinking and dreaming like oh man how cool to be a phil would do this but they never thought it was possible probably

until what the back nine of yesterday a lot of gamblers okay loved brooks in there because he was 50 to one going into the weekend because of the knee surgery. So there was a lot of gamblers that saw that number and were like, Brooks in a major. He's got, what, two months, I think, or a month and a half after this one until the next really important. So you can kind of get – I don't want to say leave it all out there, but if you're injured, it's like, okay, I don't have to fear potentially re-irritating because I will have time on the other this

because it's the PGA Championship. Here we go. So the 50-1 bettors, plus it it being Brooks he's just like cool dude I think everybody thinks Brooks is a super cool guy the goatee fucking legendary okay so it was I think a lot of people were pulling for Brooks and then the Phil story like golf had to compete against LeBron all right LeBron was on at the same time as this. And I was, as everybody else was, kind of bouncing back and forth. You see LeBron do his thing, his whole thing. Is he all right? Is he okay? I think he's okay.

He's blinded in one arm, but he's still going to win this goddamn series. He's LeBron James. I saw LeFlop was trending. I mean, Chris Paul put him in an arm bar. Nobody's talking about that. Tried to break his arm off like a chicken wing. Yeah, right. Everybody's talking about him being, oh, stop flopping around.

It's like Draymond Green was two knuckles deep in his eyeball. Okay, he might hurt for a second. And then all of a sudden, Chris Paul is doing a Ronda Rousey arm bar over his shoulder. I mean, it's just insane what he has to go through. And the internet refuses to see it. Game one, disinterested, doesn't matter. Kardashian's boyfriend, let you get the spotlight, Chris Paul. Welcome back to primetime TV.

Why does he get traded so much? Everywhere he goes, they win. Makes no sense to me. LeBron's just letting them have their moment. Anthony Davis, he wasn't trying. He had, what, one rebound in the first? He's 7'7". He had one rebound.

They weren't trying at all. This is nothing. Everybody needs to take it easy. But but anyways golf was competing with that and you go i flip over you see that lebron's doing his thing they kind of stink then you go back over here and it's a crowd of people around phil and a crowd of people around brooks and they're just walking through the course it was in wo Wooste's or whatever. Wooste's. He was kind of getting back in it a little bit. You know, they would cut to him.

But man, that was two guys going head to head with the NBA. And I think they won. I would assume they won. I loved what I enjoyed it a lot. Golf had a massive Sunday in a big sports field Sunday. I think they absolutely won. Like Phil, maybe people younger, I guess. I'm 37. People younger than me definitely don't know a whole lot about Phil, I'm guessing.

But I think for people my age and above, absolutely. Phil was the story yesterday. You knew a lot about Phil yesterday when I was talking with you. You knew a lot. I've been a big fan. I've been a fan of Phil for a long time. Sure. I mean, immediately after that guy having his one shining moment, I get a text message from you just...

No, you sent me a text message. I did not send you first. The text I sent you was shit-talking, I assume, about my bet that I'd never beat Phil. I told him I'd never beat Phil. But I don't have to. You know what I mean? But as soon as I send that, this guy unloads. Have you ever heard, insert name of

I'm going to call this is OJ Howard, I think. I think he just accepted it. I'm not doing it. I don't know him anywhere near well enough to do that. OJ Simpson or who? Not your OJ. I thought that's what you were going to say.

I said OJ Howard. I know you know everybody. It's either OJ O.J. Howard. I said O.J. Howard. I know you know everybody. It's either O.J. or it's Piven. I don't know Phil, obviously, because you were enlightening me on a lot of information I did not know about. Phil's a good gambler. Yeah, I heard he is a good gambler. He likes to watch the action. But you had to watch Phil yesterday.

I mean, as soon as you saw that LeBron was still hungover from his tequila party, that he wasn't interested in the NBA playoffs, you had to watch the golf. Yeah, I agree. I agree completely. Let's talk about Bron Bron. Okay, let's talk about him. Yeah. We saw him with Mr. Loverboy Drake, all right?

Night before the game, photos come out of them dancing, bebopping around. Thought they were drinking wine because LeBron James is one of the biggest winos on this planet one of the greatest sommeliers this world has ever seen one of the best palettes that has ever been created inside of a human resides in the king of basketball LeBron James's mouth okay so I assume this was a sommelier operation a celebration how you doing keep it moving and I was intrigued by the fact there didn't seem to be any social distancing and there was no masks. But when you see, you know, Drizzy in there and you see LeBron and you see others, you're like, okay, I assume these people, high-end people,

they're all kind of about it, about it, or whatever. Turns out they were not about it, about it. Adam Silver said that was definitely an infraction. Okay, can't have it. All right said that was definitely an infraction. Okay. Can't have it. All right. But it's LeBron James. What the hell do you want us to do?

I had no idea he was a tequila entrepreneur. I had no idea he was an anti-vaxxer. I'm learning a lot about him at this point. I'm learning a lot about LeBron. But I do know that the NBA not punishing LeBron James for this is the most obvious thing of all time. And there was a little bit of pushback on the internet that LeBron James getting special treatment. Well, no shit. Hey, no shit. He's getting special treatment.

Once again, we don't love it. Okay. We don't like that that happens. That people get special treatment and get treated differently. And people get, you know, be who you can afford to be and act out. We don't like that that happens. But it's LeBron James and it's playoff basketball. If you thought Adam Silver was going to be like, excuse me, that tequila,

that's probably incredibly good, I assume. I don't know about Terramona, okay. But if you thought Adam Silver was going to say, don't order tequila. I know Drizzy, by the way, who's a part of the promotion on TNT. It's him in the background doing this entire thing. He doesn't even say anything. If you thought they were going to punish him for that, I hate that you live in the same world as us

because you're oblivious to shit that we need you not to be oblivious to. This is the world. We need your help changing it. And we're going to try every single day to change that. But there was no way he was getting punished there. But punished as in how? Do people really think that he's going to be suspended? If Adam Stilwell wants to?

I mean, it was COVID. It's a pretty big deal. I mean, we beat COVID. Yeah, COVID is long gone. I mean, we beat COVID. Shout out Madison Square Garden. Shout out Puyallup Island. Shout out everywhere.

We beat COVID for sure. But their protocols are still in place. And would he have done that? Would Devin Booker, if he was found in one of them Kardashian parties, would he have been able to play yesterday if that happened? The answer? No. He would have been suspended. It would have been a big deal. One day, Devin Booker might be LeBron. I mean, it's going to take a lot of games like he played yesterday, but that's just how it is. Be who you can afford to be is

a real thing at this point. Well, protocols have changed, though. Has the NBA come out and tried to say, like, I think if they test negative day of game they're okay aren't they well there's no way that um there's no way that the rest of the nba players would it are cool with this right yeah there's no you don't have to they want to be they want to be invited no not invited i just know that a lot of nba guys okay i know a lot of nba guys maybe they don't have their own tequila but maybe they got burgers or something yeah and they were gonna have fucking jack harlow over uh-huh you know and they were gonna do an entire thing for their burger company that they're they're launching couldn't do it couldn't promote their company like lebron was able to promote their company but that's just that's just how it goes hey one day maybe you'll

be a king too all right i mean it was anointed to him when he was 16, getting paid in high school. He has lived up to the billing. He has put the NBA on his back. He makes the playoffs every single year. He is LeBron James. One day when you are, that will also be the same way. Don't like it. Once again, I do not like it.

I don't think this is good. I don't think it's how things should go. But it is the world we live in. That's just kind of how it is. All in all, it also helped out LeBron. Because I didn't know he had a tequila company or anything. And now we do strictly because of this. Jordan's is better.

Jordan's got a tequila? It's so good. It's better than LeBron's. It's really expensive, isn't it? Very expensive. It's worth it. Is it like Terra Mono? I think it's called Cinco.

Cinco. You know, Ron White has a... He's worth it. Is it like Terramano? I think it's called Cinco. Cinco. You know, Ron White has a, he's a comedian. He has a tequila as well called Number One. Number One. Number One tequila. That's pretty good. Jordan's bottle is, it's a good looking bottle. It's nice.

Does it have a bell on the top? What's that one tequila that has the, it's kind of built like a sex toy, real tall. Oh, the blue and white bottle? It has the silver thing on kind of built like a sex toy, real tall. Oh, the blue and white box? It has the silver thing on top that acts as a... What kind of sex toy is it built like? Probably all the ones that you probably buy on the internet. Dildo, you weirdo. It didn't describe it to me, no.

I didn't understand what you meant. It kind of looks like if... Oh, a tequila bottle or a sex toy. There's a Reddit thread about it. And then there's like this on top of it And it's a bell And then there's like a bell on it But yeah maybe make yourself

What was that My bad Here's the bottle right here I mean That is That's pretty good Thank you so much And then if I had a Red Solo cup,

I'll put you right up here to make it look good. There's a lot of ash in here. Anyways, this is the one that... I was at a party. Warren Moon showed up with this bottle. Oh! Yeah. Classic Warren.

The Moon! Yeah, me and Warren Moon. We got after it with that bottle right there. Died after. It was my first time. But I think that's a pretty expensive tequila as well. The tequila business is a vast one. But I don't think anybody's using the same, what are those things called?

The green things in Mexico that they use to make? Avocados? Agave? Agave. Avocados, I think, by the way. That's ice cream. It's also in Mexico. But the agave that The Rock is using for Terra Mana

comes from a barn that's been stored there for 2,000 years. So I think everybody's trying to catch up to The Rock. This is MJ's. Yeah, he found it when he was filming Fast and Furious movies. Smart. This is MJ's right here. He drove his car through a cave and looked for some truth to that. That's a good-looking bottle right there.

It is a good-looking bottle. It kind of looks like a Ciroc bottle, doesn't it? Yeah, a little bit. How much is it to eat for a bottle? Ah, too much. Cinco. 500 bucks? It's really expensive, I heard.

Is it Cinco or Cinco? Some of those bottles are 1,000, I saw, but then the cheapest one was like 180. What's the standard? I don't know. I don't think I bought it. In that blue bottle, for a small one, it was $185.

How about the one that I would... LeBron's is $50. So he's trying to undercut the Jordan tequila market. Hey, LeBron's the people's champ. Sportable tequila, dude. With Drake and their shoulder shimmies. Baby.

That craw baby tequila. All right. AJ, let's talk about Dak Prescott tells Sage Steele that if he had to, he could go play a game right now and would not worry at all about his foot. That's wild to me. That's incredible to me because the mentality of getting over an injury is just as difficult as physically getting over an injury.

He said, I'm not even worried about the leg right now. That's got to be great news if you're a Dallas Cowboys fan. But the Dallas Cowboys fans, I assume, thought that he was definitely going to be back as soon as they signed him to the highest contract of all time after working out in the Dallas Cowboys facility. after working out in the Dallas Cowboys facility. That one video we've seen where he was thrown just out, kind of like right to the wide receiver stop route almost, or you get it, just standing over there. He stumbled out back,

but a lot of progress can be made in a quick amount of time. Whenever you're talking about rehab, Dak seems to be all the way back. All systems go, it sounds like, is what's being said, AJ. Well, Dak is such a tough dude, of course. It wouldn't be the ideal situation if he had to play a game tomorrow. But him saying that he can, I feel like for Cowboys fans and for Mike McCarthy, they've got to feel pretty good about where they're at right now.

How many days until their first regular season game? That's all that matters. Well, I was looking at the schedule, calendar. We're fucking got some time, pal. 190. They said, fucking got some time, pal. 190. They said, we have some time here. Now, I don't love it, but we're going to have to talk about things like Julio Jones and Shannon Sharp having a phone call on television.

Did he know it was public? Who knows? He had to, right? I don't know. I don't know. People who are averagely good friends of mine, and by good friends, I mean like in the world, kind of understand my life,

they'll call me whenever I'm on air and not know we're live. You know what I mean? So unless this was all something that was potentially premeditated, which could have been, Shannon could have said like, hey, I'm going to call you during the show. As soon as Skip says, Julio, you're going to Dallas, can I call you?

And Julio might know that. I'm not 100% sure. But I love- Aren't i love the rules though hey aren't there rules to put like don't isn't that why you you do have to tell hey you're on air like before they say a word you let them know like hey you're on the radio we're recording this anything i have no idea there are some states that recorded phones yeah you can't record without both parties there's one party knowledge but there are some states where you don't have to. I would assume California is one where. You probably got to let them know. I'd assume.

Yeah. Is California back? I saw New York was back. I think they're getting there, but not like New York's back, I don't think. Did you see New York was half and half, though? Did you see that picture? What's that? So half of the stadium was vaccinated people,

and then the other half was non-vaccinated people which they didn't show much oh so on camera side go ahead and put all the msg yeah all the vaccinated folks just put them in there tell them they have to wear masks or whatever we can pack it out yeah on the other side it's probably what 10 capacity it was very spaced out still they didn't show that much well it't matter. Didn't need it because that place, Tracy Morgan, was vibing. I mean, he was having a good time. Spike was losing his mind. I mean, most Knicks thing of all time to have that environment.

We're back in the playoffs. How you doing? Keep moving. And then have a dagger take their soul out at the end and name a Trey Young. But that was awesome. I am not a noted Knicks fan or Hawks fan or really going to be glued to my TV for anything. But for anything NBA, the environment in MSG yesterday was worth the watch. That was awesome in there.

Like this time, where like the NBA playoffs, the NHL playoffs are going, the PGA Championship, it really is unbelievable. If we can add a little like rogers news a little julio news to this it would be a hell of a week okay so let's get to some aaron rogers news aj you saw uh aaron and shailene and miles teller and miles lady they're dancing singing having a good time getting exploited by somebody that works at the resort i believe with a selfie video aaron's playing the guitar singing he's having a good time I think it was in selfie mode in that video so it was flipped I assume he's a right-handed

guitar player I've never seen him play but in this video it appeared as if he was playing lefty as they were singing uh he was crushing it on the guitar yeah I mean absolutely crushing it on the guitar he he's living his best life right now. Have you talked? Oh, there it is. Wow. In front of a wine cellar. Yeah, that's selfie mode.

He's not playing lefty. Yeah, he's a right. Okay, perfect. Tim McAfee was like, wow, he plays left-handed. Is this McCartney ever? So now, with all this coming out, do you think this affects Aaron at all, knowing that this is coming out, this is being released, or do you think he'll comearon at all knowing that this is coming out this is being released or do you think he'll come out and speak tonight on kenny main but if that doesn't cover

anything maybe it does i'm not sure do you think he's ever going to come out and say anything and have you talked to him maybe even send him an aloha and a shocker since he's been out there no i have not uh talked to him i didn't i mean i learned of this video 45 minutes ago pretty much i don't know when it came out. But he obviously was okay with it. The guy's in selfie mode. Why Aaron's playing the guitar? If Aaron's not cool with it, I'm guessing he's going to tell the guy, put it away. I don't know who he is.

That's an awkward position, though, isn't it? Especially if you're a little bit drunk and this person feels as comfortable to do that. What's Aaron supposed to say? Hey, take the fuck. What if he takes that guitar? You would, too. Yeah. Well, that's what I'm saying.

It's an awkward thing to do, especially at the resort that they're at. I'm assuming that guy's getting fired. He's that guitar. You would too. Yeah. Well, that's what I'm saying. It's an awkward thing to do, especially at the resort that they're at. I'm assuming that guy's getting fired. He's a musician. I looked into it a little bit. I don't know if he works at the resort, but, I mean, yeah, he posted it on his own. I mean, I don't know. You look at it. It does seem like it's kind of.

Yeah, but I don't know. I don't know what resort he's at. Okay. I don't have Aaron Rodgers money. All right. It seems like pretty soon. But I don't currently, okay, have Aaron Rodgers money nowhere near the world that you and him live in or anything like that. But I have been to Hawaii resorts.

Okay, I think that one actually looked kind of familiar. Those types of resorts, I don't think it's known for like, hey, when you're here here we're going to hire somebody who's going to expose everything you're doing I just I don't know it feels like a little bit of an interesting does that guy work there does he work at the resort I assume he gets hired to come in and play right that's what it sounds like oh so that was the musician Aaron was playing his guitar

is what you're saying yeah seems like well maybe the guitar was just in I don't know I have no idea you know what I mean who knows maybe Miles brought it maybe Miles Teller usually takes his guitar everywhere nonetheless whatever the case looks like he's having a time of his life does he even know that all this shit's going on in the world or you think he's that uh secluded i mean i don't he honestly he may be blind to a lot of what is going on and i tell you what it does look like fun like we should probably get to hawaii sometime soon it seems like you should have been invited to that. I don't like that you weren't.

I'm not happy about it. That's not a thing you... Someone want to watch my four kids? I need 13 different adults to help watch my kids. Oh, so you were invited. So AJ wasn't invited to Hawaii. I was not. Seems like you didn't ask about it.

Like it matters. This is so dumb, but I was Eddie. Come on. Okay, like it matters. This is so dumb, but I was not. I wouldn't be a part of that. You know Miles asked if you wanted to go, AJ. Come on. So just so we have this clear. Miles is the man. I like Miles.

See? Since AJ has spoken about the Aaron Rodgers situation so much, their friendship has died. Oh, man. AJ was not invited to. I hope so. I hope so at this point. I might just have to cut it off at this point. Oh, man. AJ was not invited to. I hope so. I hope so at this point. I might just have to cut it off at this point.

Oh, you're – Wow. You can't fire me. I quit? Is that what you just said? No, I'm just saying that to you. I would never do that. Yeah, you're a good friend, man.

You are in a terrible spot as this continues to go. Wait until we hear what he says. No, I'm not. I'm really not, though. I'm not because I don't know anything. I know less than you. I really do. I know less than most people because I didn't see this video until a couple minutes ago.

That's bullshit. Let's get some phone calls, shall we? Yeah, what you're doing is lying, though. I'm not. Yeah, you are. Yeah. We know you got knockout out in the front driveway with Axl. Okay, we know that whole thing.

But if one of my very close friends was in the middle of an epic public potential battle with some it would be tough not to be like uh hey man i hate that i gotta go on the air every day but i guess we'll just talk down the road is that what we're gonna do you you are in a terrible spot you know it i know it we know it but i do like the fact that you just continue to act like it's not but it's a beautiful thing you've handled beautiful thing. You've handled it very well. You've handled it very well. Well done, AJ. Good job, AJ.

To the detriment of this show. For sure. I know. Rappaport told me, like, I got to use my sources, man. I'm not pushing my sources hard enough. Well, to be honest, that's a weird situation for you to be in. It really is. He's not a source.

Like, Aaron's not a source. Well, that's what I situation for you to be in it really is he's not a source like aaron's not a source well that's what i'm saying though but everything you say about it is considered okay oh he's speaking from it's a tough situation to be it really is reach out to miles though miles could be a source well we will try to book miles yeah yeah he will get miles said he'll come on sometime for sure. Did he tell you that from Hawaii? No, I talked to him a week or two ago. I said, yeah, you definitely need to come on whenever they do. When is Top Gun 2

coming out? Last year, dude. Who knows? It's been pushed back like three times. Was that after he invited you to Hawaii? No, but they've been done filming for a year or two. Listen, Avatar's been pushed back a couple times because it's great. This Top Gun movie is probably going to fucking be terrible.

Oh! It's absolutely terrible. Are you kidding me? That's why they're delaying it. It's going to be way better than Avatar. What are you saying? Hey, hey. They're delaying it.

They're delaying it because it's so bad. This is just like the Travolta Gotti movie. Oh! It's so bad. It's so bad. It's not Travolta. It is just like the Travolta Gotti movie. They like it so much because it's so bad. Not Travolta. Not that stupid Travolta. Tom Cruise. Hey, we're talking TC here.

TC, baby. You don't think Cruise is going to be better than Avatar? And that Gotti movie was not Travolta's fault. But it was delayed 100 times because of how terrible it was. This was COVID. COVID is for this one. Cruise is putting you in the industry on its back right now. You put that thing

on a streaming service it gets two billion views immediately. Cruise will never. No. He is movies. He said, I'm trying to keep this fucking industry alive right now.

He's not stopping anything at all. You know why he was yelling about it? It wasn't because of the protocols. It was because he saw the movie that was being made. No. Yeah, he said,

I'm trying to keep this industry alive and the movie stunk so bad. That's because he saw the movie that was being made. No. Yeah, he said, I'm trying to keep this industry alive, and the movie stunk so bad. That's why he was yelling. Nobody talked about that. I think that was on the set of Mission Impossible that is coming out, and we all know that ain't going to fucking sting. He's a machine. I trust Mission Impossible to be good. Have you seen Top Gun, Pat?

What? You haven't seen Top Gun. Bro, I've seen him play volleyball, okay? What? You haven't seen Top Gun. Bro, I've seen them play volleyball, okay, bro? You haven't seen Top Gun? Come on, yeah, they're on the fucking piano. You love that loving feeling. Oh,

that loving feeling. Yeah, I've seen it. Come on, they're in the bar thing. They're doing karaoke. He chases her outside. They do the thing. Yeah, you shouldn't have hit a jack, dude. karaoke. He chases her outside. They do the thing. Yeah, you shouldn't have hit a jack, dude. Anyways. What should he have done?

Just spun off and just rode the plane into the water? Yes. I mean, I don't know. I saw Sully do it. Hero's Journey, dude. Let's go to the phones. What? I don't agree with that.

But Hero's Journey. You and I had very different answers. I mean, they have ejected seats for a reason, right? Yeah, you've been in there, by the way. I watched you take your mask off on a video and do a full. I watched a video of you struggling in there for an hour. I think it was an hour-long one. Why would you ever sign up for that? Hey, thank you for your service.

I'm not telling you to land a plane. I had to gut it out. Thank you for your service, AJ. Thank you, AJ. I did nothing. Anyways, I assume Top Gun's going to be good, but it's nice to get the boys riding. I'm never going to watch it, but...

Speaking of that, is this Mission Impossible 14? What are we on? Yeah, whatever the next one is. I saw that one. He was flying a helicopter in a cliff, and he spun it. He did a fish tail on that goddamn hell oh yeah that's the only scene i saw but i think mom backstabbed yeah i think he i think he got backstabbed had to go find something he's been getting backslidden

way too often believe it or not he gets backstabbed quite a bit in those no way yeah i know it's wild have you guys seen that borat one yet the second one The espionage. Borat's that espionage guy over in England. Have you seen this? Oh, yeah, I did. It's pretty good. It is. I agree. Is it a true story?

What's it called? That's what I don't know. If it is a true story, awesome. It says based on a true story, but it also could just be completely fairytale like Rudy or something like that. The based on a true story hooks me in because I'm like, okay, so this could happen. All right. We all know how I do with the whole, like I saw a dragon on Game of Thrones.

I was like, okay, I'm not creative enough to buy into this shit. I can't do it. Or I can't do it. Probably why I've never really gotten into the religion as much as I probably should have. Like that type of thing. But if it's based on a true story, I'm 100% in. I think they have gotten a little bit fucking careless with that i think that they're they're stamping that on the front of everything strictly for me and people like me i think but we could start doing something like that based off real events or whatever what does

that mean somebody took that means nothing that means like something in the realm of this happened one day yeah it's like tom cruise american made Pat, if you're right. Comparing that to the actual cocaine cowboys. Someone did take a shit one time. It wasn't the cocaine cowboys. That was a very different story. It's a different one, yeah. Yeah. Oh, Gumpy, you didn't know that.

Hey, listen, Gumpy, American Made? One of my favorite movies. No, but it was the pilot that was connected to the cocaine cowboys at some point. No, no. He was working for the CIA or whatever. Cocaine cowboys are in the documentary. All those guys that were behind are in it. Okay, I misunderstood i misunderstood no it's a good one though have you you have watched it

american mid yeah yeah yeah now that's based on a true story i don't know how true it is but in my head this 100 true but like the drugs fell in the field they know that they know how he died the same way they showed the movie like i don't know how much but it seems like a lot of it and then you watch that borat is a spy movie it's like how much shady shit is going on especially with the fact that you know ufos have been seen every day sorry uaos yeah or uaps there is why was everybody it's a fucking ufo okay i understand that this thing is a phenomenon or whatever but every single day for years how many people saw that hundreds of people every single day for years, how many people saw that? Hundreds of people every single day saw that,

and somehow we don't find out about it? That's unbelievable to me. There has to be so much shit popping off. Shout out Classified Files. Declassified Files. Now they are. Is the ones that were shot now. I would say respect to those hundreds of people

that keep their mouths shut. Shout out to the Handshake Agreement. We saw nothing. Last thing. They were dubbed crazy. I think those hundreds of people that did see these things were like, finally, hey, I told you guys what I saw, and now the government's coming out and clarifying it.

Shout out to Lazar. Yeah, Bob. There you go. Let's get to a break. Hey, I can't wait for you and me to go to a Mecham event and for me and the auctioneer to bully you into buying a car you don't need. Yeah, it's not going to happen with me,

but I would love to go watch. Auctioneers are great. I know you had them on. Believe me, I know we have two auctioneers at our charity event every year, and those dudes absolutely are worth what they cost to bring in. They're showmen. Mm-hmm. And ladies,

has show business changed that? Show people. He did say show people. No, he said ring people. Ring people. For the people that are out there. I'm talking about show business with the showmen

because I meant that as a generalization, but it is right there at the end. Man. Can ask Mai Tai when he comes on. I'm going to let him know that movie probably sticks keep singing and dancing pal I'm joking

Miles Teller okay yeah we'll have him on I think you'll like him I think so too he gave us one of those at Super Bowl yeah he gave us one of those at a Super Bowl. He did. Oh, really? Yeah. Yeah, he gave us one of those. Nice. Right here.

You guys. Hey. By the way, can't do that in an auction. Cannot point at anything. Cannot say, hey, look at that. Because there's immediately a huh. And it's like, whoa, whoa, whoa. Where are we at?

1.4? No. Almost caught. That's why I always sit next to your buddies and always try to throw their arm up. I'll sit next to my brother and try to throw his arm up. I feel like that was potentially. There was a car, 2.8 million, somebody said.

Did it fly? Did not. It sat, but it was long. It was very long and very nice. 2.8 million. They looked this guy right in the face and said, that's not enough. Big goes on. Just drive it right across the front.

See you later. It's out of there. That guy had a checkbook in his whatever that he was going to. I had to write out the price of mine. I had to write a check for it. I mean, I filled in the space just. I couldn't even imagine 2,800,000 with zero. I mean, he was ready to do that in the room that we were sitting in.

And he said, nah, not enough, pal. Fucking take a hike. Well, it sucks for that guy because now he's got to go out and bid someone else on, you know, the internet or the phones. The internet was. Is that it right there? Yeah, he referenced this car. You kidding me? Yeah, that was.

2.8 million. Oh, the duck. Oh. It's longer than a semi. That thing is huge. It is pretty huge. They also had Oh, the W. Oh. It's longer than a semi. That thing actually is pretty sweet. They also had a jet limo. I don't know how much that actual ended up going for. How much did you pay for your deal, Pat?

Did you say yet? That'll be debuted in a vlog that's coming on Friday. Well, we should guess for prizes. No, I think it's potentially out there somewhere. Yeah. Oh, it definitely is, yeah. Yeah, you know what I mean? Because you were on the television. Mm potentially out there somewhere. Yeah. Oh, it definitely is, yeah. Yeah, you know what I mean? Because you were on the television.

Interview. Yeah. They were at commercial when I was doing it. So we have the footage that has never been. And by the way, pretty good footage. The Connor cam. There's a Connor cam. And my wife also has a selfie video of my face.

And then Connor has me and the guy and then the crowd you hear the crowd in the background you know it is got the auctioneer so somebody was coming someone was was bad on you for the car okay so let me pause this listen this show stinks today i hate to break it to you we covered everything that's happened in the sports world go elsewhere if you have to, I apologize. Well, yeah, actually, I don't do it. For the good of your life, if you want to, I understand.

Because I woke up this morning and was like, I can't wait to talk about stuff I don't know much about. Once I talk about it, am I going to talk about it again? Probably not. So what are we going to do for three hours? Then the Julio thing happens.

I'm like, okay, we can do that for three hours. I feel like we've run that one into the ground already. So let's just get back into this. What was your exact question again for the thing? What did I say? How much did you pay for your Wrangler? Okay, so I had a plan going in.

With a Hemi, by the way, please. Big Hemi, do I? Not one in a little soft. It's a Jeep with a Hemi. Big body. I was going to buy a car in there. Everybody knew I was going to buy something. That was legitimately the only one I could have seen myself in driving. You know what I mean? A lot of collector cars,

a lot of things like that. With our roads here, there's no way I could have got any of like the super, you know, nice cars. Everybody knew I was going to buy something. The Jeep was really the only one that I think we saw. And I was like, ah, that Jeep is dope. Okay. That Jeep is dope. We've just seen it. so we sit down cars come through we're kind of scoping it out i have to go pee everybody knows my bladder is not great so i go to the bathroom the bathroom is outside the arena to the left a little bit of a haul probably 80 90 yards oh yeah 100 yards probably from where we're at i go to the bathroom i come back and i see the jeep taking a stroll across the

front and then i see my wife like looking at me from the table so i come running over you know and i sit down and uh she goes i thought when you heard the engine this was definitely coming home with us i was like i hadn't heard the engine because whenever i came out it was just in a spot so as she says that this thing, and I was like, Oh, is that the Jeep? She was like, Yeah, so I look up, I start reading about the Jeep, you know, because I just seen it. And the first thing I see is like the six point whatever Hemi and I'm like, Okay, here we go. I had a plan going in,

because I am a newbie. And I don't know much about much. I'm gonna wait for this thing to stop. I'm gonna wait for the bidding to stop. And then I'm going to jump in because then I at least know about where the cost should be. You know what I mean? Because I don't know these things well enough. Let's assume the others in here know. So when that thing gets to a price where it's about to be hammered, then I'm going to come in. And then we're going to find out, you know, who really wants it.

So as it was about, I go, yep. So now I'm in the game, okay? And as soon as I get into the game, I got the ring guy standing right here. I got the auctioneer now leg up on the thing staring at me. The other person that was bidding right up like five rows in front of me to the left so I could like literally see him, all this whole thing's going on and it got good we're talking hey we're talking a little bit of a scrap now oh yeah hey we're talking people getting involved hey we're talking everywhere it was electrifying but that's how i know i definitely overpaid because when it was over i got in and

then it it had gotten a lot longer. It kept going. So I think whenever the footage is seen on Friday and Foxy's new vlog, I think people will be like, of course. But honestly, it was the only one I think that I could have drove away in, and everybody knew I was going to fucking buy one. So I might have got run up maybe, but it felt like there was a couple other people in the room that really wanted that thing. Whenever we walked back to the Jeep, after it was sold, it's like going and seeing a dog you just adopted.

You know what I mean? Like going to check it out. There's two people standing around it, looking inside of it. It was somebody who was in the bid earlier. They lost out. By the way, the guy was very nice but he was in the the bidding for it early he had you know shit kickers on his feet he had boots on it was almost like when he saw me he was like disappointed oh yeah everybody in there was like this fucking guy should not have got this

but it was uh it's beautiful i'm pumped about it and the meekum people were very hospitable but it is it's electrifying and my, she might be Scorsese. Like the shots that she got of the Mecham, the car, of me, she's like, she's real. She might be like one of the greatest camera people of all time after seeing the clips and everything like that. It is, it was awesome in there, AJ. I mean, it was, I mean, I got, I stood up at one point. It is, it was awesome in there, AJ. I mean, it was, I mean, I got,

I got, I stood up at one point. I mean, it was real. It was the arena. I mean, it was, and then Connor came.

It's infectious. It was a whole, the energy. Was anyone else though? Was anyone else there as excited as you were? Everybody in there was excited for the joust that we got into. Oh yeah. It was like,

that's what they're waiting for. And it wasn't on TV, you know? So it was like, yeah, me.'re waiting for. And it wasn't on TV. You know, so it was like, I almost feel like bad for Mecham. Because I think the moment was between me and the guy, potentially, just from what we saw. Like, the most amount of action, at least. And it was during commercial break, I think, or something. They should have ran it later then.

Like, they should have put it back on the broadcast. By the way, I thought a hundred times that they would have done it. I don't think they were even filming it. No. They got some photos of me doing the thing, but I don't think they have the video at all. I'm like, man, I feel like I gave you guys quite a good little run here. Yeah, they fucked up big time. Even if it is commercial, it's like, hey, still get this on camera.

During the break. Yeah. During the break. I mean, it was good now i paid a lot more than i should have for a car that you got to roll up the windows though okay it's old school i gotta roll up those windows throwback i gotta lock every one of them individually okay is there air conditioning uh there is good air conditioning but i gotta move the side mirrors with my hands you know i think it's i was looking for the little knob maybe no of course not no of course not doesn't have that gotta do this gotta do this

it does connect bluetooth very quickly though okay which is cool and when that thing i mean when it hums it hums it's geared low though for power okay so first gear second gear gotta shift quickly out of those because we're trying to pull some shit out of some shit. But once we get into fourth, fifth, and sixth gear, she does fly a little bit. She really starts spreading her wings. You know what I mean? She really starts going. But this thing is a monster truck, AJ.

A fucking monster truck. I mean, you need to take that off-roading somewhere and climb the mountains with that. Yeah. Everest. Everest. He probably could. Let's get to a break. At least Kilimanjaro.

Oh, let's get to a break. We'll answer some phone calls on the other side. Hey, maybe we'll have O.J. Howard on the show. Oh, okay. Here we go. He's at the summit. Yeah, he's going to the tight end. Yeah?

Yeah. I think the offensive linemen are doing something, too. I was kind of texting about it. Oh. But once again, I don't know if I'm supposed to say it or not. Oh, on you. Oh, on you. I don't think it's being called L-O-U because the tight ends did it,

but they do have a cool name. Oh, nice. On the back end of it. They have a cool name. He brings that? No, I don't think so. That's for them to do. And I don't want to piss off the offensive linemen.

No. Smart. That's not a good idea. They're actually pretty big to our show, the offensive linemen. Oh, yeah. I love the truck show. I feel like we're a very pro-offensive line show.

Yeah, for sure. I think so. All right, let's get to a break. We'll answer phone calls on the other side. This is the Pat McAfee Show. And I assume there's going to be stories around

the Mecham people about... You remember when McAfee paid, insert, ridiculous price here for a Jeep he tried to sell one week later? Maybe maybe so sorry to interrupt but i want to let you know that if you're not gambling with fanduel you're wrong okay fanduel sportsbook is available in uh seven states i believe at this point uh six seven eight you get it if you're

not gambling with fanduel sportsbook though you're completely wrong and if we're not in your state yet we are coming to your state we have better. We have a much easier to use app. The convenience is next level. The people at Fandle actually refund people when they shouldn't refund people, giving back hundreds of millions and millions of dollars to their users. Fandle Sportsbook is the best sportsbook going for a lot of reasons, most of them what I just said. We are very thankful for our partnership with FanDuel, obviously. There are so many different ways to win.

There's more things to bet on. Their boosts seem to always hit, which is just fucking themselves over time and time again. We love the hell out of FanDuel Sportsbook, and you will too. If you haven't used it yet use it nah also there's fantasy on there daily fantasy and free to play games where you can win money shout to vandal shout to you let's get back to the show very fascinating instagram post by deandre

hopkins who has said publicly that he would restructure his contract to get Julio Jones on the Arizona Cardinals. Now, he has released an Instagram post in which it is him, Julio Jones, A.J. Green, and Michael Irvin. A.J. Green, now a member of the Arizona Cardinals. DeAndre Hopkins, now a member of the Arizona Cardinals. Julio Jones, the last person in his picture who still plays football, who could be a member of the Arizona Cardinals. Julio Jones, the last person in this picture who still plays football, who could be a member of the Arizona Cardinals, had a conversation, it seems like, somewhere at the Pro Bowl,

and I assume it said, if we were ever to link up on the same team, we'd fucking dominate. How are they going to cover us all? It would be a single all across the defense. We wouldn't have anybody shading towards us. What is the safety going to do? Whether it's me on one side, you on the other, AJ there as well.

Do we have enough balls? Who cares? At this point, we're all rich. Let's go win a Super Bowl. Kyler Murray's on a rookie contract. He's also an incredibly cool dude and electrifying. Cliff Kingsbury knows how to draw a place let's make this happen here we are staring down the potential julio jones deandre hopkins aj green

wide receiver core maybe even larry fitzgerald if he comes back good luck to a defense who has to prepare for that but if julio goes anywhere it's going to be crazy this particular time if he was alongside nuke and A.J., I think that is must-see television if this happens. I mean, first off, look how good Michael Irvin looks. He looks like he can still play, and he's, what, 50-something? He's drinking that game-time wine with Lonnie Paxson. Oh, yeah, you're right.

But, okay, if they do – let's say Julio does sign with the Cardinals. Does it make – does that – does that make the chances of Larry Fitzgerald coming back? Is there a better chance he comes back or a less chance if Julio's on the team? Could you imagine old Larry working the slot? I mean, just imagine Kyler in shotgun. Who's running back? Chase Edmonds. Edmonds.

James Conner. James Conner just signed. Imagine him standing in shotgun. He's got Edmonds next to him. Then he looks to his left and James Conner. James Conner just signed. Imagine him standing in shotgun, okay? He's got Edmonds next to him. Then he looks to his left, and in a bunch, in a bunch, okay? It's A.J. Green, Julio Jones, and DeAndre Hopkins. That's in a bunch, right, where Cliff can draw that to go wherever. They'll probably have five, six defenders over there.

And then on the other side, Larry Fitzgerald. Or put Larry in that bunch and have julio all by himself over here i mean it's just the amount of things you can do with the defense you can dictate and control exactly what they're going to do and if you have a quarterback that can shake everybody if it's a one-on-one i mean that is that is a design team to try and win a super bowl but once again it's Julio Jones. You add him anywhere, they're going to immediately be much better. I assume for Falcons fans

this sucks because damn, Julio was trending on Twitter and I think it was all the Falcons fans saying, damn, Julio, I'm out of there on national television, which we don't know if he knew he was on national TV or not with Shannon Shepard. There's actually some lawyers getting involved on Twitter about the legalities of this whole thing uh but the julio jones story

is one where everybody waits with bated breath to see what the next team is that is going to join the super bowl conversation immediately upon his arrival so so they must have told him obviously like we're we're shopping you and he gets a feeling from his agent talking to the team and speaking that what i'm not going to be there, right? He didn't say, like, I don't want to be there. It sounds like Dave told him, hey, we're shopping you, and it's probably going to get done. Oh, yeah, I'm out of there.

Yeah, yeah, they're moving me, dude. They can't afford me and Matt, and I'm not restructuring for that. There's been other articles and stuff, though, that said he requested a trade months ago. Okay. Well, if they were shopping him before the draft, then, I mean, we're a month past that. Before the draft, yeah.

Remember, this happened a couple years ago right before an extension he signed? Yeah. Where he erased all the Falcon stuff off his Instagram. Yep. He was gone. He was out of there. Everybody was like, oh, no, Julio's going to have a new home. And then they get an extension done.

He's back. He's back. Hunky Dory, how you doing? Then I'd assume that we will potentially think. I assume they had a conversation, Julio and the Falcons, new management and everything. What's his name, Fontenot? Fontenot.

Fontenot probably told him, like, hey, we are going to listen to offers and everything. He's like, yeah, I do want out. I assume that there was some sort of give and take there. But, man, Julio on the move would be awesome for any team at this point. And it's really the only thing popping off. Peyton Manning used to call out Adam Gase during team meetings and other meetings. And this comes from an offensive lineman named Ben Garland,

who also was in the Air Force. I believe he's currently in the National Guard somewhere. And he talked about how it was crazy to him to watch this because in the military, nobody would ever call out their superiors or whatever in the rank. My quick question for Ben Garland, okay, is who do you think is the colonel in this fucking thing, and who do you think is the sergeant or staff sergeant

or whatever the hell you want? Peyton Manning is probably, and I don't know how old Adam Gase is, Peyton Manning's been in the NFL longer. He's probably been around football longer. He's the one that probably had to okay Adam Gase even still having a job on the team. So him calling out Adam Gase in the meetings is exactly what John Elway brought in Peyton Manning to do whenever he gave him the keys. That's what Peyton Manning has done.

I'm sure there are many other stories that could come out from Peyton in meetings to coaches. We could have Clyde Christensen on here, quarterback coach for him for a long time, who's now down with the Buccaneers. And he would say, right, right, right. Get a text 1, 2 AM. Gotta have the answers. Gotta have the answers. But that is what Peyton Manning is, Ben. I don't know how to tell you that. The demanding of accountability and a standard to be set But that is what Peyton Manning is, Ben. I don't know how to tell you that. The demanding of accountability and a standard to be set, that is why Peyton Manning was Peyton Manning. Everybody in Denver knew what they were getting. And since Ben left the team, he left after the NFC Championship game,

they won a Super Bowl that next year, Ben. So, Ben, thank you for your service. I appreciate you. Thank you, Ben. But this headline was like, yeah, no shit. Has anybody heard any stories about how this whole thing operates whenever Peyton is your quarterback? By the way, this is what Tom had heard as well, by the way,

whenever Peyton and Tom became friends. Aaron, by the way, probably has heard this stuff. That's why he and LeFleur had a full Zoom call. It was like, hey, this is what I need to see. Like, this is the empowerment of a quarterback who has earned the responsibility to do that, but Peyton, it was said

that he walked in with a briefcase to interview Polian when he walked in there. It's like, that's what Peyton was. And by the way, a lot of success. There's a lot of reason behind it. He was groomed to be an NFL quarterback since he was like three years old. He watched Peyton places. He is the game of football like I don't want to I don't want to title him like you know he is he wouldn't like that either but you're talking about football knowledge and the

way he operates like this is not a headline and I think it's uh you know Ben like thank you for your service Ben but what the fuck is it what are what it? You're talking out of pocket right now. This is not how it is in the military. It's like, no shit. What do we even, I respect and appreciate the military so much, but to just have that whole statement, I was like, alright, Ben, shut up. But to your point, Peyton's two years older and already had

two MVPs by the time Adam Gase was in the NFL. Yeah, so who's what here? I've never seen that in the military. Well, you're talking about the colonel allowing a lieutenant to speak in front of the rest of the men? Is that what you're saying? And when he gets a wrong gun, no, that's not what we're doing. We're not doing that.

That is not how this goes. Now, if he wasn't older in the NFL longer, I assume he would still do that, by the way, just because he's the one on the field making the whole thing happen. And that's the type of stuff that other quarterbacks see, and they see organizations buying in behind a great quarterback because you know they don't grow on trees and then other people potentially get upset about it maybe we don't know also sheriff is the highest of highs that you could possibly be yeah because you get voted in that's right you don't even gotta know anything about the goddamn law you get voted in sheriff aj hawk could be the

sheriff of uh old columbus yeah uh-huh yeah over there. I don't think I'm qualified, but you mentioned the Jags. What did they put out? Did they leak it out or somebody else? So Yahoo, I assume they're social, did a video or a picture. It was on Yahoo, I think. They had their draft board with their scores on them. They had their draft board with their scores on them, and they forgot to blur out their draft board showing a wide receiver

with the same grade as Trevor Lawrence. I believe the wide receiver was Waddle. Yeah. And who knows if the scoring for wide receivers and quarterbacks are on the same scale. Trevor Lawrence was their overall number one. But this is classic NFL draft board blur out mistake here. You watch some of these videos and Chris Ball ballard for instance in the um with the next pick series for the colts incredible access you're allowed to see things or whatever but

somebody's got to blur out all the shit behind it and it's like chris is walking in front of a green screen because they got to move the blurs behind because every little scouting point is on all these walls you walk in there it's like a beautiful mind for all these scouts like positions uh potential cost uh scores pros that are like that colleges that are like that sophomores that are potentially going to be next year it's just like all this shit and with great access comes great responsibility here at the jags are like ah fuck it put out the point system jaylen waddle's really good we thought i mean i guess it really doesn't matter. Are people surprised that the fact that Trevor Lawrence, there's somebody with an equal grade, even though it's a different position,

it's not like there's another quarterback with an equal grade as Trevor. Yeah, and maybe that just means that that's- That would be news. If there was another quarterback that had an eight like Trevor, then they'd be like, okay, well, what made you so sure about Trevor? The score might be in the position.

This is our highest. You know, like it might have like that might be the point. Like per position, this is our highest rated QB, highest rated wide receiver. You know, like who knows exactly what that number means, which leads me to believe are they wasting their time blurring out everything? Because that has to fucking take forever. Oh, yes. They are, but they don't want their...

Yeah, yeah, frame by frame. Every single time he moves, you have to follow along with it. That would take probably a couple hours. That's for one particular shot, right? Exactly. Let alone if it's like a six-minute video where you go in and out of there.

Yes, exactly. So shout out to the Colts if they actually did that. They did it, yeah. Chris Ballard's standing in front of a thing, and he's standing there, and the whole wall behind him is blurred, and it's like around his body. Yeah, that's incredible. Yeah, I immediately was like, that had

to take forever to do over there. And the Jaguars are like, anybody know what the score means? Nah, fuck. That saves me like four hours of doing tedious nonsense if we could do that. Go ahead, Connor. Probably great news for the Dolphins. You probably feel great about it.

It's like, hey, Jalen Waddell, they thought he was just like Trevor Lawrence. Here we go. I don't think Dolphins care about how Urban Meyer is scoring them. Are you kidding me? They see that eight draft score, they're fired up. They're probably thinking about taking Jalen Waddell number one overall. That's just like the Minnesota Vikings laughing at the Philadelphia Eagles for drafting another.

I assume. You know, you see a lot of people stay within the same group. You know, like Ballard comes from old buddy in Kansas City, I think. So it's kind of like I assume there's different ways to go about the entire scouting process. That would be fascinating to learn about. Also very boring, I bet, to explain. Yeah, it would be boring.

And I have different buddies I've talked to that have worked at front office gigs. be fascinating to learn about also very boring i bet to explain yeah it would be boring and i have uh different buddies i've talked to that have worked at front office gigs and i've asked them questions like how do they do a different compared to different places like most places do things like this very similar like in the front office how they scout players what they do but i think the the patriots are definitely a team that scout or how they grade players is different than a lot of other teams in the league. And I'm sure there's one or two other teams where I think they have the answer. The Patriots might get Julio, by the way.

Oh, yeah. Absolutely. What do they give up for him? I don't think Bill cares. Have you seen what Bill has been doing? Yeah. This offseason. Bill does not fuck it.

A whole different Bill. It's a fire sale. Everything must go, dude. Everything must go because we got to get everything in here. We got to turn this around quick and i think you know they say bill belichick and saban real tight right oh yeah down at the pro day bill and saban chuckling laughing having a good time together he drafts mac jones you know what i mean hbo doc with the two sitting down together yeah they're doing the whole thing i think they're very close and i don't know how many people are very close to either of those men,

you know, aside from their immediate family. I don't know. At that point, I assume it's tough to have friends. I just, especially with the type of mindset, like love football. Nick Saban came out for the first time ever in Nick Saban's football life last year and said, I used to think that you had to run the ball well, you had to stop the run and have good defense. But that is no longer what football is. And if you think that, you are going to get passed by. It was very big coming from Saban because everybody remembers

the Alabama teams. They're going to run the ball. They're going to have a huge offensive line. Their quarterback, he has to be good because he's going to have a huge offensive line their quarterback you know he has to be good because he's going to have to complete a pass at some point but there's going to be a lot of handing off and play action you're going to be able to do it and then the defense is going to hunt like it is going to be a fast defense a good defense he's saving coming out and saying that's not what football is anymore by the way football is wide open you got to throw you got to have weapons i assume he and Bill have chatted about this, right? And Bill Belichick, in the first day of free agency tampering period there,

spend all that money, get weapons on the offensive side of the ball. I assume Bill and Nick are on the same page football philosophy-wise. For sure. It would make a lot of sense if he brought in Julio, if that was his new philosophy. Like, hey, you need weapons. You've got to score. Like, it is no longer run the ball, win in special teams, and stop the ball.

It is. You've got to score, and you've got to get stops when it's necessary. You've got to have prime time stops. But you're not going to be able to stop everybody the entire game. This is football now. I just think back to that, and I assume they have chatted about that. Don't you think? Well, yeah, that's why I think Belichick and Saban have both been able to have

this consistent success. How they go about it, their whole process, their attention to detail, all of that I think has always probably stayed very similar to what it was when they first got into coaching. But they evolved, man. Hearing Saban say that, that's a big deal. I agree. There's a lot of old school coaches that have won numerous national championships

that could easily sit there and be like, no, we're not playing that kind of ball. That's a lot of old school coaches that have won numerous national championships who could easily sit there and be like, no, we're not playing that kind of ball. That's not what we do at Alabama. You could sit there and act like you're too good for that and it's going to work how you want to do it. But for Saban to be like, hey man, no, this is where it's going. I need to get there or I'm going to at the end of my coaching career,

my legacy may be affected by my stubbornness to stick with this same plan I've had for a long time. So I think Belichick is very similar. He doesn't maybe explain it as much as Saban did in that time. But I think Belichick, the reason he is able to do this is because, yeah, he may have the Patriot way. And people want to say it's not fun and everything. But he can evolve like offensively and defensively.

And also, by the way, fun. I think they're having a lot more fun. Cam Newton last year. There's just videos of the whole thing. But it wasn't the Saban quote wasn't as intense as like quit asking but close it was it was very close to like the you could hear him almost getting sick of hearing the people you're referring to talking about this is how you win a game he's like that's not how you win the game anymore like you could tell he was almost like fed up with people maybe questioning whether or not

his team is different than it used to be or anything like that and tell he was almost, like, fed up with people maybe questioning whether or not his team is different than it used to be or anything like that. And maybe he was just covering up for his new team that he had, and he doesn't really see that as all football. But I don't think that's the case. I think everything Saban says is probably calculated for a reason. And him saying, like, that's not football anymore. It's just he was probably telling his fans,

probably Alabama football experts, you know, they're probably saying, like, got to get back to this, got to get back to this. But also, if Nick Saban's saying something, I assume Bill Belichick, who's a really close person, is also thinking it. Unless they just – what if those two get in a knockdown, drag out fights over that? Oh, man. They're sitting down at the dinner table, COVID, social distance,

you know what I mean? Bill's got his thing on. Nick's got his thing on. They're on the other side of the table. And Bill's like, you got to run the ball. You got to be able to stop the ball. You got to win field position. Nick's like, that is not the game anymore, Bill.

Bill, fuck you. Who are you? What if they just started yelling at the end? Yeah, you're right. I got to go spend $150 million in first. That's what I'm going to do. I wonder, you know, like, do you think they have meetings of the mind where you talk football?

Yeah, that's all they talk is football, it seems like. 100%. How many people do they let into those convos? Nobody. Nobody. Miss Terry. Saban's wife, Miss Terry. She's probably the only one that gets to even get a glimpse of it.

And Nike, the dog. Now, I don't know if Steve Belichick's in there. He's probably like, hey, Steve, you worry about that mullet in the defense. Take a hike, Steve. Because that's like the Illuminati there of football. You get invited to that conversation. Matt Patricia's definitely in there. No way.

You think he's invited Patricia and not his own son? Who's the team coordinator now, dude? Is Steve signing the last person to sign each player? Come on. He's not. That's Patricia's job. His signature's not in the contract. Patricia's number two in that organization. Yeah. The last one to sign off on anybody. Ernie's not. That's Patricia's job. His signature's not in the contract. Patricia's number two in that organization.

Yeah. The last one to sign off on anybody. Ernie's retired. Ernie's gone. He's still on the team this whole entire year. Ernie's retired. It's his last season. He's not retired yet.

He's gone. He's not retired yet. Long live Ernie. In that HBO documentary, though, they do at the end when they're done filming, Bill's like, all right, now you guys got to get out here. We got something we got to talk about. He kicks the cameraman out and they keep going after they filmed their segment. You said something very, very – yeah, probably brought him out.

Hey, you said something like an hour ago that was very impressive. I need to learn more about it. Nobody else can see it though. Get the fuck out, please. Turn the mics off, please. So, yeah, we're done with these. They just took them off. What are you saying about the game?

The game's changing, Bill. It would be. Because who do you go to. What are you saying about the game? The game's changing, Bill. It would be. Because who do you go to for advice if you're Bill Belichick? You know? I think Bill Belichick asks a lot of people for advice. I think – haven't you talked to college coaches? They're always impressed with how Belichick will come check on a guy that's probably not even getting drafted.

They want to get a heads up for him to sign him as an undrafted guy. I think he – guys like that that are elite at what they do, they're constantly curious and they're always asking questions. Yeah, but how many people is he actually taking advice from? He may ask 100 questions and only get one decent answer that he thinks will help him, but I'm sure he's doing that. They say you should never be worried about the opinions of somebody you wouldn't ask for their advice from or something like that.

I assume Bill Belichick. It's going to be hard to find somebody he gives a fuck about their opinions. Yeah, it's a small list. I would assume it's got to be very – just at this point, you know, like I assume it is tough for him to find. Nick Saban's probably one of those. Different football here. College football, NFL football, different football.

You tried my league, you stunk. I could have probably went to your league, dominated, but I don't. I'm up here. College football, NFL football, different football. You tried my league, you stunk. I could have probably went to your league, dominated, but I don't. I'm up here. But still, I think they probably have a respect for each other, but you're right, I guess. Bill, it is, every time I did a game, you know, they talked about Bill Belichick, kind of, like, oh, Bill

called me, asked about this guy, and then the offense, he wanted to know what this, and that's, I assume, but how many friends you got up there, I wonder? Probably not a lot. Not many. Just Matt Patricia and Nick Saban. Sure. Tuna Parcells.

Bill. Tuna. Did they get two Bills, right? That was all Doc, too. Yep. They still get along, you think? I think so. Yeah.

Didn't it take them like 30 years to get those guys back together to do that? That's what I'm saying. Uh-huh. I wonder if that was just a one-night affair. Yeah, it could have been. What a weird world, dude. I mean mean they can't have a ton of friends when are you gonna be like do you think nfl head coaches the majority of them are texting friends throughout the day and doing things especially during the season never they're gone hibernation see you later that's why chris ballard probably hasn't answered my text this morning which was a gif of julio making that

super bowl catch i assume they're busy. That's kind of how it goes. But, man, that's insane to think. There's one guy that will respond to you during the season, throughout the year, that can. And he's DM'd with you before, and I think you'll know. Old Vrabes. Vrabes still stays in touch, I think, with the world while he's coaching.

I did DM Vrabes. Oh. Yeah, he did answer. Yeah. We followed each other. I've never met this man. Okay. Obviously, massive fan of his.

Just for everything I've heard about him as human, player, and coach. Okay. This is the trifecta here, Vrabes, of things that I just find hilarious or whatever. And I made a snide remark in the DMs about him doing the draft instead of being at the Derby, you know, because he's supposed to be at the Derby. Like him and Todd, he's a part of that group or whatever. And I'd never messaged him before he followed me. I sent it out there.

He came back quicker than anything I've ever seen with a – it was a right hook. A haymaker. Yeah, very quickly. I think I called him soft or something for not doing the draft from the Kentucky Derby. He buried me in this show in one sentence and a half. And then, have a good one, pal. Or something like that.

I just laughed. I laughed so hard. He's a guy. That guy. Hey, they might get Julio. I mean, I think that would make sense. And it seems like for me, if I'm Julio, I think it would be an attractive place to go. Nashville is awesome.

And I think that is not what you were referring to. But Derrick Henry in the backfield is always good for the wide receivers as well for that box that has to happen, let alone with A.J. there as well. The thought of Julio joining that team is not good for anybody else in the AFC South. And I'll tell you what, Chris Ballard, if Julio ends up at the Tennessee Titans, and we got to stare him, he's only 32, by the way. I was saying he was 34 earlier.

And we got to stare him down for what? The next four years at least? Five years at least? And it's not worth what? A second and a third over? Get out of here, Chris. I mean, if it only takes a second and a third, you have to try to get him.

They said they were asking for a one. Nobody's done it. Now they're saying he's still on the market, so it's probably not going to be a one, right? So what is it? A second then? Two seconds? And is two seconds worth a one?

How do we? If it's a second and a third, that's a no-brainer for anybody. No, no, not for anybody. I got people on the internet telling me I'm a scumbag. I should not be spreading these false narratives. That's why I'm never going to be a GM. Pat, even if it is a one. Give it a fucking and you're the colts and you get this guy you're gonna go on a run you're gonna go deep it's gonna be a late one yeah it wasn't exactly and there's

just like the carson wentz one could become a one if he plays and they do well but who cares you're doing well i just don't buy into the draft type as much as everybody else. I think you're that way too, AJ. And the reason why is because, you know, I've been in the locker room and I've seen some of the greatest looking football players of all time come into the locker room. A lot of hype. And then they stink. For whatever reason, I have no idea why. Mentally, maybe they can't figure it out.

They're not as bought in. Maybe now that they made money, they're a different person. That happened. They can get hurt early on to derail their career. What about Tennessee? Their first round pick from, was it two years ago? He's already off the team. One year ago. Last year. Potential get your ass

fired is what coaches say. That's for a reason. Also, that draft pick could become another Julio. That could become another Julio. Good news is you got Julio already okay so that's what you gave up the pick for I just don't know why there is so much so much weight in these draft picks especially with the math saying there's a good chance this shit ain't gonna work like I just it's a tough league you find somebody who can dominate in the league.

Okay, let's get that. If we can afford it, let's get that guy. We know he's going to do well. We have done the research. The research has told us this guy will fucking dominate anywhere, anytime, against anybody. You ask his opponents. You ask his peers.

Everybody says, aside from this you always want the guy on your team that is the aside from this guy in the conversation of who is the guy it's just imagine if he goes to arizona with nuke and aj green and fitzjoe over do you think it's just recency bias like because he didn't play a full season last year the people are just now like uh two and a three. He's injury prone. He's always hurt. His contract's ridiculous. It's not worth it. Isn't that interesting that the people that –

that is potentially something. The people that are coming after me are the people that say, I'm not seeing the big picture. But really, they might not be seeing the big picture. Hey, zoom out a little bit, okay? You're going to get cropped hot, all right? Nicki Minaj said that. You can get draft picks back too you can work angles and figure out how to get that two and three back and contracts mean nothing

we've learned that yeah with avoidable years yeah you can bring these guys on to probably restructure and still find a way to keep it under the cap imagine course and when's coming back yeah but can the colts even trade their first because Because if they're on the hook for Wentz, is that something that can work or no? That's a good question. That's a great question. I don't know. Because if they trade that first and then Carson Wentz plays so well where they have to give up, you know what I'm saying?

Like that wouldn't really. Yeah, because it's a conditional. Yeah. I don't know. Figure it out. Give them the year after. Who cares? Bro, give them 2031 through 2035 first round picks. We'll figure it out

later, dude. Golly, man. Imagine him in Green Bay with Aaron and Devontae and big Bob Tunyon who's already going to tight end you. He's only going to get better somehow. I mean, it is. Somehow the Chiefs will end up with him. Somehow the Chiefs or the

Bucs will end up with him. It's going to happen. Not Atlanta. Atlanta can't trade him. It's going to happen. I wouldn't be surprised. Not Atlanta. Atlanta can't trade him. Yeah, if it wasn't the division, it would be the Bucs for sure. That's the only reason why. They said they will trade him to somebody in the NFC, but it's going to have to be right. I think the Seahawks are there too, to be honest. I want to see him in L.A. with the Rams.

Anyone. Oh, the Stafford. That team was zero draft cap, I'm pretty sure. Who, the Rams? Yeah. Yeah, but they'll give up. They will give up 2040 through 2050. Schrag said they could make it happen.

He tweeted about it. Let's get to a break, dude. What about the Bills? Bills, too. Oh, Stephon Diggs. Oh, yeah. Let's not do that. And Josh Allen, by the way, is.

Oh, yeah. Yeah. Calibrated. They got Manuel Sanders, too. Maybe I should start sending texts to old Bean with those gifts. What are we doing? Oh, no. I would just do that.

That hurts Indianapolis. Oh, that's because he's going to the NFC. Do you remember who beat you in the playoffs last year? Buffalo Bills. Yeah. That was only a three-point game. That was Phillip Rivers-Coles, dude. That's Phillip Rivers-Coles.

Wins and losses, right? By the way, I heard he is a physical-point game. That was Phillip Rivers' call, dude. That's Phillip Rivers' call. Wins and losses, right? By the way, I heard he is a physical phenomenon. Phil? Yeah. They have no idea how he can run, they said. He is, they said he is not flexible at all. At all. They said he is a specimen.

It makes no sense how his body can do what it does, they said. They said he's big, much more athletic than you think, cannot really, cannot move other than that. That's why he's always up,

I guess, during the games. Oh, so he just gets stiff. I think, yeah. I started putting two and two together because I held the crown there for a long time

as the least flexible human to ever go through the Indianapolis Colts organization. And I was told that my crown was potentially close. Okay. Yeah.

Thank you so much for spending time with us today and every single Monday through Friday. You know, we're in a wild time right now in sports. Who knows what's going to happen in the NFL? Who knows who's going to be traded? It's great to speculate. It's great to talk about the season, and we'll continue to do so. NHL, NBA, golf, car auctions. I mean, whatever else pops up will carry the weight of this whole thing, but we can't wait to chit chat with you tomorrow. Big

show tomorrow. Hey, be a friend, tell a friend. Can't thank you enough. Ty, please play some independent music and propel these people into a beautiful Monday night. Bye. Bye. Bye.
