Hello, happy Labor Day. It is Monday, September 6, 2021. Big show, big show. It's the first day of the NFL's kickoff week. Let's fucking celebrate the hell out of this. I can't thank you enough for allowing us to penetrate your ear holes. The fact that you do on a daily basis, I am eternally grateful for. If by the end of the show you like it, please be a friend, tell a friend. If not, just act like it never happened. That's good to it. Happy Labor Day. This sports show starts right now.

Hey, it's great to be back in studio with the boys. It is great to feel the energy of the boys. It is great to be out and about in public and being seen by other people. It is fantastic to be outside of my house. I just got done with 14 days house arrest, basically, due to Uncle COVID. We are able to continue to do the show because the incredible talent from the boys in this particular office. I appreciate you all so much for your incredible work. I hope you all give yourself a round of applause.

Not just them back there. You guys also dealing with me being in a screen and then AJ on a screen and then other people on a screen. And you sitting here and being able to feel and read the room and vibe. You guys are the absolute best. I appreciate the hell out of you. Now, it's not just like me back in the studio day. Okay. That would be a very selfish way of looking at this.

Because this is Monday, September 6th. This is the official kickoff to the NFL's kickoff week. We fucking made it to NFL season, baby! We'll talk about Bay Bay later. That was quite a big moment last night. You know, he's a piece of shit.

He is. Scumbag. We've known that forever. I mean, congrats to him. And that is a pretty big deal. Yeah. But fuck that guy. Get him off my TV.

I can't take this guy. You know, dude? Like, he's terrible scumbag asshole. That's right. Can't say it enough. Proved it again last night. Just can't help it. It oozes from his body.

If you stand too close to him for too long, like when I had to for 20-some minutes, first time out, no crowd, no big deal. When I went out there, you're worried that the scum is going to osmosis through. Yeah. That's right. That was a pretty fucking big moment. Yes, it was. Daniel Bryan's is better, so who cares?

Well, listen, Brian Daniels. Yeah, come on. I mean, there's Jesus. What's the difference? Another gender situation. Now, with that being said, terrible guy. Congrats, though. And that was really fucking cool to see. Pretty cool. And it was great to hear that fucker was live. Oh, though. And that was really fucking cool to see.

Pretty cool. And it was great to hear that fucker was loud. Oh, yeah. Uh-huh. Yeah. It was loud. I brought the roof off. To hell with him.

To hell with him. Yeah, guy stinks. Terrible. Fuck him. Anyways, Thursday, the Dallas Cowboys, without their best player coming out of Zeke's mouth and Jerry Jones's mouth this morning on first take without their stud offensive lineman Zach Martin who's out because of COVID which I think might happen this season more than we think it's going to happen because of the way the world is

now as opposed to last year last year everybody was literally locked down everybody's in their houses so there's no meet and greets on the streets whenever you're going to your car to potentially go to practice or there's no neighbor interactions because everybody's locked in their house. Now, no matter how careful these players are going to be, they're going to have interactions with people.

That's going to happen. There is going to be, with COVID, there is a chance that people are going to have it that you couldn't even expect. We still don't know where the fuck I got it from. Just want to let everybody know. I was on the same plane, smaller plane with four people for four hours after SummerSlam. Nobody else got it. Okay. But me. So then I come into the office with the boys. I'm around the boys. Very much so. Nobody else got it but me.

Was it a door dasher at my house? Was it somebody that potentially showed up with a package that I grabbed over? We have no idea where it's from. And there's going to be those types of things happen throughout the season. And we're going to see some big-name players out. Zach Martin, for the Dallas Cowboysboys being out is a massive fucking deal. Dak Prescott's coming back from a terrible, despicable,

disgusting injury. Faster than any of us could have imagined because Dak Prescott's a badass. After watching Hard Knocks, I got nothing but more respect for that guy. Swears. Competitive. I fucking love him. I'm a big Dak guy, but he's even got to think like,

okay, after almost a career-ending injury, if this was 10 years ago and we didn't have modern science, like 10 years ago, maybe 15 years ago, don't fucking, you get it. At some point in recent, not too long history, what happened to him would have been a career-ender. Now he's back the next season. Now first game against the champs with Indomitian Sioux coming back.

I mean, that defense that is absolutely stacked. He's out his offensive weapon on the offensive line in Zach Martin. He's going to have to think about that. Zeke's obviously going to have to think about that. And we have to think about that when we're betting, and we must act accordingly. Okay, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Tom Brady allegedly playing fucking lights-out football right now. Everybody, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Tom Brady allegedly playing fucking lights out football right now.

Everybody in the building is saying, hey, we're playing much better than we were playing last year. And that's because they learned a lot about each other, I think, last season. It wasn't until after that Atlanta game, second half comeback, bye week, where they changed their entire offense, that they became the fucking team that we saw at the end of the year and that we all expected at the beginning of the year when they hadn't figured it out yet. This Buccaneers team might be a fucking wagon. It literally might be that. And with the Dallas Cowboys potentially going in a little bit wounded because COVID has hit their roster in some big spots,

we've got to remember that whenever we're watching shows like Hammer Don, Atone Diggs here, big money was made this weekend on college football. Where's the action looking on Thursday night? Is everybody hammering Tampa right now? And how much is the line moving with this COVID news? 60% of the bets are on Tampa. It opened at 6.5. It's up to 7.5.

What I would say is the difference between 7.5 and 8, not that big. Like if it goes to 8, fine. Me, though, if it gets down to 7, 7 is a huge key number. If it gets down to 7, automatically jump on Tampa. But it may go up to eight, but that doesn't – it's not a big enough difference between seven and eight because – You like the Cowboys with the points, you're saying. No, no, no, no, no, no.

No, you're just saying – I'm just saying – The line isn't telling you to move. I'm saying let's wait to see what happens with the line. If it goes down to seven, I'm automatically jumping on the Bucs. If it goes up to eight, there's probably a good chance I may just still stay on the Bucs, but I would like to get it at seven versus seven and a half. Got it, because of obviously the way scoring works in football.

I think we all understand the way scoring works, why certain numbers are potentially much more important and something you should look at as opposed to others whenever you're looking at the spreads. But this could be, I mean, we might be looking at, Jerry Jones is out here painting. This is David and Goliath. He has spent like $7 billion building this team.

They have the biggest stadium. They have the biggest fan base and he's pitching. This is David versus Goliath as the Buccaneers being the Goliath. And if, if that's how you view your team, actually, why didn't you, you're willing to pay and trade for players, why didn't you just bring in the players that they had? Then now you have to question his GM ship for him saying this is David versus Goliath. But with all that being said,

big Mike McCarthy might have them Cowboys ready to fucking run. At Ty Schmidt, former Packer, great Mike McCarthy, obviously. Watching hard knocks, seeing him break things down. What do you think happens on Thursday night? Do you think the Dallas Cowboys are much better than they were last year, or do you think it's going to be a rolling start before we've got to get the fucking watermelons in the goddamn – Mollets?

Mollets. Yeah, whatever the hell it is, dude. What do you think is going to happen with the Dallas Cowboys? I think they'll definitely be better than they were last year, obviously. Dak has got a lot to prove, I think, coming off his injury. But the big thing that I looked at is I believe Tom Brady's over-under for touchdown passes was two and a half. And if you remember last year, Dallas' secondary was fucking terrible.

God-awful. I could see this being a big-time route. I mean, you read all the stuff coming out of Tampa Bay, too, about Tom Brady, about how he just— Young. Yeah, he feels like he's 24 again. He feels incredible. Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times

just did a sit-down with Tom outside. They paint the image always. He sat on a metal folding chair. You know, they always paint the picture, and I appreciate that from the great writers. But he said that Tom thinks that he's going to be the best he's ever been and the more agile he's ever been because he always wore that knee sleeve for 13 years for a little bit of stability.

And he said, actually, what happens when you wear that knee sleeve, though, is it tightens up your quad, which also hinders your hamstring. And this is old Guerrero down there saying, hey, we've got pliability. That's what we're all about. But we've been learning whenever you fucking put a chokehold on that quad, it feels like there's not much pliability in that hamstring. We take that thing off. We get that MCL fix that you were dealing with every single day last season.

As a 40-plus-year-old playing his best football he's ever played, throwing more deep balls than he's ever thrown. Maybe the Randy Moss year is different. I'm not 100% sure, but you get it. He was battling an MCL, got surgery. No more brace, no more hindrance on his legs. He's for his gum coming out of that fucking driveway, dude. The braces are popping off at this age

and there's no end in sight, Rick Stroud said it sounds like, for Tom Brady. That means he's driven. The undefeated thing was referenced yet again. It might be a problem at Boston Corner. You're going to have to continue to sit back and just watch this guy potentially build another dynasty down in Florida paying no state income tax.

And he said living on the water. Every day seems like there's a better day than the day before, he said down there in Tampa Bay. Yeah, it's gorgeous. Boston's on the water, no big deal. But, you know, I got my own dynasty to worry about. I'm not worried about an NFC dynasty. I'm worried about the right now, if the Mac Jones ever.

But to Ty's point about Thursday, this will be a blowout. I mean, ten and a half I would take the Bucs at, strictly because I don't see Dak figuring out right away. You're missing your offensive lineman. You're coming be a blowout. I mean, 10.5 I would take the Bucs at strictly because I don't see Dak figuring out right away. You're missing your offensive lineman. You're coming off a terrible injury maybe a few games in. He's finally comfortable and able to kind of move around like he used to be. But right off the bat, that's hard to see.

And plus, the Bucs are rolling. They're going to be raising a banner. They didn't have hard knocks in there. No hard knocks. Fans, you know, packed out that are actually Bucs fans. Tom gets a chance to actually play for Tampa Bay for the first time ever. That's right. Yeah.

The run out. Oh, what's the fucking goal? Yeah. Cannons. Oh, dude. AB's like plus 185, 155 to score a touchdown. That's what I'm high on. I do not see him scoring.

Or I do not see him scoring. Or I do not see him scoring. Yeah, not going to see that. And you're not going to not bet on that whenever you see that type of stuff. And you're not going to bet on the Bucs when Brady's looking up at another banner like, oh, I can't wait for the next one. And I'm not going to not change the subject

because what you're saying about New England there at the beginning of the thing, pretty fascinating because, you know, friend of the show, Rob Ninkovich, got into a little bit on the internet this weekend. Did friend of the show rob ninkovich got into a little bit on the internet this weekend yeah rob ninkovich oh dan and ninko okay it's a show dan and ninko is uh and by the way i want to let everybody know i do not believe some of the things that are being said about rob ninkovich or anywhere near true okay i think you ask a lot

of his teammates they love I think everybody loves. It does seem like he got into it a little bit this weekend after some things were said and some DMs were allegedly sent. I don't know if they were real. Okay. I mean, it sure looked like that would be a great edit if it was to make that fake. He got into it, though, allegedly saying on Dan and Ninko's show, he said that Mac Jones was teaching Cam Newton a playbook. Now, he said he heard that from a source inside the building,

and I would assume that Rob Ninkovich, who has a lot of Super Bowls with the Patriots, and like I said, it seems like everybody that's ever played with him or coached has liked Rob Ninkovich. So I'd assume he has pretty good sources still in the building. has liked Rob Ninkovich. So I'd assume he has pretty good sources still in the building. And I think, you know, when he says that, did Ninkovich, did he allude that Mack Jones was sitting down and teaching Cam everything?

Is that how some people took it? I would assume what he meant was there was probably some situations that Mack had known from whatever Bill O'Brien or Sark offense that he was running that maybe they weren't able to put in last year. They didn't put in last year because of COVID. Cam being out, no weapons on the team. Maybe there was something that Mac knew more than Cam, but that really lit quite a fire. And then people started coming out.

Julian Edmund was like, he didn't think that Mac beat Cam out. He thinks that Cam actually, and he was on the team last year, so he knows more about cam than you would think than maybe ninkovich does so i it's a wild scene up there all i know is big talking points new era will new england be good or not if they're good none of these conversations matter if mac jones stinks though everything that has happened here with the five-day COVID test thing and this situation and then drafting Mack number one overall after Cam didn't really have a team last year. So did you guys make the right decision?

Has Bill Belichick lost his fastball? Whoa, whoa, whoa. That's what people are going to say. Okay, okay. You guys have heard this for 20 years, though. But I have a sneaky suspicion that I think they're going to be good up there. Oh, yeah. Absolutely.

I think you guys are going to be good. And that only means one thing, one thing alone. Mass holes are going to be insufferable again. Yeah. You know, just like Alabama fans. I tweeted about this. Yes. It has to be so much fun to be an Alabama fan.

Any given moment, you can talk shit to whoever freely. Every year. Hey, we're going to fucking win it this year. Yeah. Okay. Somebody said something to you. Blah, blah, blah, blah. No, you're not. Okay. we're gonna fucking win it this year yeah okay somebody said something to you blah blah blah okay we're gonna win this year all right yeah fuck off i guess you're right yeah yeah what would happen if we played each other you think oh we'd win by 90 no you wouldn't they'd actually play and they'd win by actually 90 think about how much fun it would have to be to be an alabama fan just knowing that as long as

saban's there for another eight years they're're going to put a battery in his back. And Nick Saban, my coach for the next hundred years down there, for as long as that factory is there, they're just going to dominate. And their fans are allowed to say whatever, whenever, however, to whomever in the SEC, which, by the way, it's different down there. It's a bunch of cults. It's all cults, like big time cults. In the down there. It's a bunch of cults. It's all cults. Like, big-time cults.

In the Big Ten, there's a few of them. Yeah. Okay, there's a few of them in the Big Ten. It's awesome. Hey, I love the Big Ten football. I mean, that Penn State-Wisconsin game. Jump around. Jump around.

Jump around. Jump around. Yeah, that was awesome. That was electrifying. That was incredible. Bro, how about Gus? Yeah. Him and Joel are good together. Awesome. Yeah are unbelievable Gus is just yeah and I mean he doesn't need that Wisconsin

crowd to do with the Wisconsin crowd that Gus will make it that way anyways but him riding you know like the waves with that thing is just unbelievable to watch but like if your fans are the best fans which the sec thinks there's like 10 of them down there where they all have their coats and the coats and the big 10 are awesome and there's some other places but everybody down there is in the cult i saw billionaires barking like dogs at a game in public in front of 70 literally hands on knees bent over okay you can't help but just join it that was the Bulldogs fans obviously in the SEC championship I got a chance to watch people were losing their mind like god damn it is different down here West Virginia fans will throw batteries

they will obviously get after sure and we can't be losing to Maryland by the way but that's an entire another conversation we had a great fan base, great, absolute great fan base. But everywhere we played, you know, it seemed like it was their most, their biggest games, it felt like, when Pat and Steve would come and play. And there was crowds and there was fans and there were student sections that are awesome. But whenever you're talking about, like, 65,000 people all deciding to bark together or, like, do anything else they do,

that's a different level of commitment. It is different down there. And Alabama fans are able to say for at least the next eight years, fuck all of you. You all are worse than us. And that's just how our backups are better than your starters. Our backups' backups are better than your starters. We are five fucking deep in this goddamn thing.

They're rolling into every club just bigger, badder, and tougher than everybody. And that's just the problem. I watched some other games around the weekend and thought to myself, who's going to stop Nick Saban in Alabama? Georgia's defense. Hey, they made DJ Uyunglele look, you know, a little bit amateur there. And was it the defense or was it the offense, you know, coming out of that thing?

Not a lot of adjustments happening either. What are we doing? The drip down there. But anyways, the Alabama fans can be pumped, just like the New England Patriots fans for the last 20 years were able to fucking rub it in everybody's faces in the biggest league on earth. And college football, by the way, I guess,

is the second biggest league on earth. Yeah. Whenever it comes to leadership and shit. So the biggest league on earth, you guys have been able to just rub people's faces and everything for 20 years. It has to feel so fucking good, because that might be back, and you might be able to earth, you guys have been able to just rub people's faces and everything for 20 years. It has to feel so fucking good because that might be back. And you might be able to live, you know, the large majority of your life like you have been able to since you were, what, six years old?

Yeah, just about five. Five years old. You've been able to just enjoy. You're a piece of shit. Yeah, exactly. No, no. We went seven to nine. We had a seven to nine year.

You know, that was pretty tough. And, you know, you say we might be back. I mean, I think it's time we can just accept the fact that New England's going to win 12 games at least this year. We don't have to beat around the bush and act like we're not. That's going to happen. I'm sorry, boys, but that's the realistic, you know, outcome of this season. Sure, absolutely. Buffalo, you know, they are still the kings of the division at this moment right now in time.

But after week one, if we beat the Dolphins by 50 points and Matt Jones looks like the future of the NFL, then yeah, we'll be beating an even better drum. Hey, I want to let you know your ball looks fantastic. Thank you. I appreciate that. It's getting longer. Now we're starting to get to the point where I actually want it to be here. Yeah, you're a little bit of girth out there. Exactly. A little bit of girth, a little bit of length, a little bit of... You got good curl back there.

Yeah, you got good curl. You gotth out there. Exactly. A little bit of girth, a little bit of length, a little bit of... You got good curl back there. Yeah, you got good curl. You got a good bouncing ounce up on the top, too. A lot of bounce. I mean, that's the thing. I'm waiting for the top to... I still got to figure out how the fuck to blow dry my hair and comb it. Don't use the comb. Use your hand.

I'm telling you. Look how high this thing is. I haven't got a haircut in three weeks. Yeah, it looks magnificent. It looks awesome. It is too high. I don't know. It's too high.

Oh, no. I don't know. Higher the hair, the closer to God. That's right. Amen. Hey, amen. Hey, it looks magnificent. It is too high. I don't know. Hey, higher the hair, the closer to God. That's right. Amen. Hey, amen. Amen. But when you get that blow dryer really working, dude, high heat. Okay. Okay. No, got to go on high heat. Okay. High fan. Then you just take that thing and just, just shoot it straight up straight up. Your hair will dance with that thing. You just got to put in a little bit of work. You don't need no comb, no brush. Just use your hand.

It'll burn. You'll get to a point where you think you're burning your hand off. That's okay. Six. I mean, I'm good with that. I've gone through the room. You might have calluses on it. Exactly.

Basically, I got markings all over these fingers. But I mean, I'm telling you, when I do not use the comb, this hair is so goddamn curly. I know you got the same thing, but I haven't been able to master the uncurl of the curl. Alright, anyways. Great to have you fucking assholes back. Great to be back. Can't wait for the season. Matt Jones, Offensive Rookie of the Year. Told you a few weeks ago.

Hey, did you see his, uh, what's that? His footwear? Yeah. Oh, that's right. Yeah, I forgot to mention. Thank you, Diggs. My headset just came out, so I can't even hear myself. But we're no bull all year, baby. No bullshit. Hey, there's a lot of people out there wishing their headsets fell out. Yeah.

Sorry. Sorry. It's team no bull all year. Come on, Mack Jones. Also, happy birthday. Turned 23 yesterday. Happy belated birthday, obviously. Happy belated birthday.

Yeah, and those, honestly, okay, I've seen a lot of no bull ads. Sure. Always thought it was the Rock shit. Yeah. Literally always thought it was okay, I've seen a lot of no bull ads. Sure. Always thought it was the Rock shit. Yeah. Literally always thought it was the Rock shit. It is not, by the way. The Rock just dropped some cross trainers. We were on the army last week.

All these Project Rocks, dude. A lot of bull, though. Hey, he's back. I thought he lost his fastball. Nope. I did. I thought he lost his fastball for a while. Then I kept watching him cut promo after promo on his Instagram.

The Rock is back. His fastball's back. The Rock is all the way back. I am so happy about it. But I thought No Bull was his company. It is not, apparently, as somebody else. These are our cross-training Toms. Exactly.

That's what these are. These are cross-trainer Toms. I mean, you should see the bottoms. I'm worried Mac Jones is working out in these, aren't you? As a fan of the team? No. Those things are cross-training tongs. I ain't worried about what's on his feet, Pat,

because I know what's between the ears, and that's an absolute football genius. Hey, that guy's breaking an ankle walking on the fucking sidewalk in those things. Yeah, the cloth, the knit is just going to go out. You haven't seen his calves, have you? Because they are fucking massive, like Johnny Drama's, my friend.

Don't you worry about Mac Jones walking around. He ain't breaking anything but goddamn NFL records. I just hope he better fucking be spatted up if he's one of those no bulls around town because there's a chance a pothole will fucking get him. No, no, no, no. Believe me, everybody in New England won't let him walk through a pothole. What they're going to do

is they're going to get down on their hands and knees. Am I falsely judging this? They look like they're Toms that they just added a little bit. You know how they said Nike was created? Phil Knight, I guess guess he got like a waffle maker and poured rubber in there and dumped it those look like toms if you were to do the waffle maker with the rubber am i am i misreading this absolutely you are you haven't put them on i mean i can take them off right now and you can put them on you can tell how comfortable these things how they're built for speed how they're built for move is that no bull that's no bull i ain't messing around right now that's no bull and that's the thing about toms toms don't that no bull? That's no bull. I ain't messing around right now. That's no bull. And that's the

thing about Toms. Toms don't say no bull on the side. No bull on both sides. Okay, so it's an optical thing. That's right. It's optical in the bottoms, let me just say. I mean, I might be able to walk 50,000 miles in a day and these things won't budge. I would walk 500

miles and I would walk 500 miles. Just would walk 500 more. Just to support Mac, though. Just to support Mac. I'll buy eight pairs of these if I have to. I mean, no bull knows. They got their breadwinner in Mac Jones. If Mac Jones has anywhere near a good start the first two weeks,

you think his jersey's going in New England? You think that jersey could go? Jersey sold out last week. Is New England a big jersey-buying town? Oh, yeah. Really? A lot of jerseys out there. Last year, Cam Newton. There were Cam Newton jerseys everywhere last week. Is New England a big jersey-buying town? Oh, yeah. Really? A lot of jerseys out there. Last year, Cam Newton.

There were Cam Newton jerseys everywhere last year. Oh, remember, you didn't want him to steal Pat the Patriot. That's right. And I'm glad Pat got his number back. I mean, I'm very relieved that Pat the Patriot can put the one back on because it's been too long. We have to stop talking about the Patriots. Well, we don't have to.

This can't get picked up anywhere. So that's fascinating, you know, because there's a lot of conversation. Michael Lombardi, who joined us last week, he gave a great reference about, and I don't know the ranks, so I do apologize, but something like a five-star general, and then the next year expecting him to operate

as like a corps force. And I don't know if I got that right, military folks. I do apologize. I mean, absolutely no disrespect. And I actually mean that as opposed to whenever these fucking guys say that. Yeah, that was too right over there. Yeah, you too.

No, not the military. What do you mean? Oh, you too. Fuck you, Dick. You're a part of that as well. But it would basically be like that is what he was saying. So I thought maybe new home where he goes in

and it's like, hey, Cam is the backup. This guy's the starter. It'd be very easy for him to kind of align and hopefully be a great piece of locker room, which, by the way, every locker room has said Cam Newton is an incredible teammate, an incredible leader. Everybody likes him with the expectation of him, whatever the expectation would be, wherever he would go. And is he better than some of the starters?

I assume that chatter begins Sunday. Yeah. Because there's going to be no talk about Dak or Tom unless somebody, oh, well, let me talk about it. Well. No, not this early. Come on. You're right.

Let's enjoy it. But once people start stinking, then that conversation will come back to the surface, I think. So I wonder if he's waiting for that, if teams are waiting for that, or what he's up to. I can't wait for this weekend. The Colts host Seattle Seahawks. Ooh, big test.

It's a big test early. You know, it's an NFC game, which I'm not 100% sure what that means, but I heard Jeff Saturday say, yeah, fuck it. You know, and if Jeff said it, by the way, I – It's gospel. Sure. If Jeff's talking, I'm listening. Just want to let you know.

I was a person who was lucky enough to be his teammate. If he speaks, I'm going to go ahead and listen. It's normally coming from a place with a big brain behind it. But yes, Seattle Seahawks this weekend against Colts. Fun fact about the Indianapolis Colts. Have not won a season opener since 2013. Yikes. Really?

I didn't know that. Yeah, yeah. Also, fun fact. I'll be hitting the anvil. They've never lost with me hitting the anvil. Okay. Let's go to the Tides. They've never lost with me hitting the anvil. Okay. Let's go to the tights. So it's 3-0 meets, what is that, 0-8.

Something's got to give. Something's got to give. Carl Wentz at the helm. Yeah. Is Carl officially at the helm? Okay, that's a text I should send during a commercial break. Hey, about the anvil. Got a question.

I'm trying to write. You know, you guys feel like acting like I'm actually preparing. Yeah, like that is something I do. I should probably think about doing more. Those are things you need to know. Those are things I should do more. But I believe they're probably going to give me a microphone, right? I would imagine so.

They did last time, right? Yeah. I would assume. It would be a colossal mistake if they don't yeah well and also i think this is obviously first time the place has been packed out i mean if it is the carl wentz era beginning just re-sign darius quentin they're gonna want you to put the fear of god into whatever 12s may be in the building oh you're talking hey when you walk into this fucking coliseum. You could probably rattle Russ, too.

He's pretty easily rattled. Yeah, God ain't here today. He's like, what? I hate to break it to you. I'm not playing. Hey, I don't know why Russell Wilson's taking a knee down there. There ain't nobody listening

to what you're saying. God don't live here. What if I got a promo just on Russell Wilson? That would be awesome. Something to think about. Uh-huh. Just start talking about

all the off-season issues. Oh, my God. They didn't even want Russell Wilson. Russell didn't even want to be there. Now, he's walking into this stadium

with the maniac re-signed to the biggest deal. Oh, my God. I really could. Here we go. I don't want to do that. That's not what they're asking. Colts did not want me to do that.

You know what I do love, though? These college fucking Twitter accounts going. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Okay. I like what's going on. UCLA. Oh, yeah.

Yep. Fucking Maryland. Hey. Don't you be doing that certified loser boy stuff. Sissy blue shirt. Yeah. Come loser boy stuff. Sissy blue shirt. Yeah. Won't bring your sissy blue shirt.

Come on, Don. I mean, he might have lost and they might have lost, but that guy is just. That moment needs to happen more. Yeah.

I need more of that. That's wrestling, by the way. Yep. That is not taking things too seriously. That is just listening and then shouting back

and then knowing, oh, none of this is actually real. Yeah. Okay, none of this is actually real. Let's just go ahead and keep it moving here.

There needs, that's wrestling. Okay, that needs to happen more in life. People need to stop taking things as serious and as literal.

Wow. Except for when a guy says that maybe his entire team should be executed. Oh! You know, who said that? Bro, it was a joke from fucking 1969. Are you kidding me, bro? where one of the guys says that maybe his entire team should be executed. Oh! Jesus Christ. Who said that?

Bro, it was a joke from fucking 1969. Are you kidding me, bro? You didn't know? I know. John McKay. Oh, John McKay. John McKay? Yeah, dude.

What the hell is that? Well, rest in peace, John McKay. Of course. McKay. McKay. John McKay, dude. Uh-huh. Coach for the Bucs back in the day, dude.

Oh, yeah. What do you think about your team's execution, he was asked. He said, I'd be in favor of it. He was not happy with them boys. That's good. It was 1970 or something like that. 1980. Maybe 19...

See, the way that McKay did it, the way that you just said it, actually very funny. That's funny. Yeah, but I mean, a good throwback reference and nobody understands it. The way that Brian Kelly did it was not delivered well. Kind of shoehorned it in there. Yeah, Brian Kelly, he's not a comedian. Okay, we've all known that.

He certainly isn't a comedian. Well, he actually has. He ain't funny. That was my big thing, is listen, I get it. I don't get it, by the way. And what I was just doing was what everybody was doing to me on Twitter last night, that was acting like they fucking knew that thing from John McKay way to go wait like if you knew that I am incredibly impressed I am proud of you whenever I have a question about random irrelevant

shit from the past in football I will come to these motherfuckers I found out who they were on the internet last night I will go to these people to find out that information but there I mean that was a what 2021 that was a wild hilarious okay just that he thought it was all right okay yeah i'm gonna let this thing fly and i wonder what his thoughts were in his brain as opposed to everybody else's thoughts i think we got a chance to see that but i mean there is a situation yeah i mean when you've actually killed a kid and your previous past transgressions like he didn't even crack a smile or laugh after he said it either so it was like well is he joking like

he i mean he i love this moron i love the people by the way what he said is a satirical reference to a situation that did happen yeah real. It very much did happen. Now, what I will say is the people that were coming after the people, like, for instance, I put a tweet out like 10 minutes later because there was something else happening on another thing. With an asshole. Sure. He's gone back. So I went back and watched.

And I put a tweet out, I guess, 10, 15 minutes later. Did this? This is wild. Is this real? Because, by the way, just follow-up question. Now, there's zero chance of her giving actual. Like, if Katie Georgette goes, what? Did you just say your tweet?

Imagine the. Oh, man. So I don't expect it. But immediately afterwards, somebody should have said something about, Mr. Kelly was obviously referencing an old joke from John McKay in 1970 about his team not executing properly and him being so upset that he would metaphorically like to kill them. Now, let's go forward because that's the world that we currently live in.

Absolutely. And you kind of got to be where your feet are. You know what I mean? Yeah. Coach JB was not happy about the response to Brian Kelly's statement either. What do you mean? Coach JB was like, oh, you soft sap dicks. This is exactly what society is turning to now.

It's Coach Tom. I will say there was a lot of people that said it was getting very soft for the way people reacted. And I will say, I agree. I understand. It was a joke. Like, hey, people, I don't think you should take anybody serious, to be honest. But people do in the world. But, I mean, there was no indication that that was a throwback to a joke in my eyes.

I might have been the biggest idiot of all time. I didn't even know John McKay was coach. And, you know, I need to study up. I need to fucking learn a little bit more about what we talk about. And it's history, obviously. but that was wild to me. Very wild. Hey, big time fucking kick by their kicker, though. Oh, yeah.

Good boot. That was a big time ball, dude. Yeah. Especially with that storybook that was supposed to happen. On the other side, it seems like everything is working against you from the universe. On Bobby's night. Like, hey, what's that? It was on Bobby's night, too.

Yeah. Bobby. Bobby Bowden. Oh, gosh. Sorry. that? It was on Bobby's night, too. Yeah. Bobby. Bobby Bowden. Oh, gosh. Sorry. Rest in peace, Bobby. Because it became McKenzie Milton's night. It did.

Which is, that's what I'm saying. You were saying. Yeah. It's all, everything. Everything. The momentum. I mean, everything. And then just walking out there for a fucking 41 yarder or whatever.

Ain't overtime. Overtime kicks are the worst. I've missed one. I've made a bunch. Nobody remembers those. I missed one. And it, overtime kicks are the worst. I've missed one. I've made a bunch. Nobody remembers those. I missed one, and it was you lose the game. If you have the ball first, you literally kick, you miss,

and it's like, oh, the game's completely over because they know what they have to do, hopefully, to get into a situation to kick a field goal, but you've got to come through on the other side. I've seen games where both kickers have missed. I think that has happened. I mean, it is an insane world out there. That kid stepped up and made a big time kick.

Well, then like the Florida State kicker, no one's going to remember the kick he had to send it into overtime. 43 yards. Yeah, exactly. Cold-blooded to complete the comeback and send it into overtime. Then he makes the 50. Yeah, makes the 50 clean and then... And then the rest takes seven hours. So think about that kicker from Florida

State. Let me pause this. Think about that kicker from Florida State. Let me pause this. Think about that kicker from Florida State. Heavy beats. Heavy basing. I didn't expect that. It was kind of blowing out the bottom of my eardrums while I was playing. I apologize for that. But think about going out there for a 50-yarder in overtime, by the way. That's a long fucking ball. Something went wrong

in the first three plays here of overtime. What are we doing? How'd this happen? So he goes out, buries it. Okay, now granted, the whistle blew right before, so there is an argument that he didn't feel, there wasn't any actual pressure, so he's just swinging or whatever the case is,

whatever bullshit. He made the kick. That thing went through. Here we go. Now they got to kind of answer that thing. Then they review it. Norvell, okay, says, you know, 50 yards, long fucking ball here in the middle of this situation. I'd like to review it. But what he couldn't have expected

was that being the longest review of all time. So that kid that just drained a 43-yarder or whatever to make it to get to overtime, a 50-yarder in overtime, think about the feelings that is going on in your body there in between your ears. Then he's just going to sit there and walk for seven minutes and it's like, yeah, by the the way this entire stadium is staring at you okay bobby baden night

mackenzie milton just came back after a thousand days after a catastrophic injury that's right shout out tessa thor he i mean oh yeah big time emphasized it he knew what what was happening right there was a movie happening right in front that him. There was a movie happening right in front of him. That was going to be a documentary forever. I mean, that was a big deal. So I couldn't even imagine. I was so nervous for him. I was just sitting there, and it was like, are they doing this to move up closer? Because he's still got to hit a ball.

If you play golf at all, it doesn't matter if you're fucking 50 yards out or 100 yards out where you're supposed to be. If you don't hit the ball, like it really doesn't matter what club you have in your hand either. If you can't hit the ball, if you're going to blade it, every fucking club is the same. I don't know how to – like if you're not going to hit, you're going to still have to hit a ball. Like that 30-whatever-7-yarder it ended up being, he would have had to hit that just like he would have had to hit a 50-yarder. I mean, people – you obviously have more room for error.

And sometimes in college on the hash marks, closer is worse, actually, because you have just a tiny little thing, and you're so much wider than in the NFL high school. It's got wider upright, so it's not really the same conversation. But that whole thought process was one where I was like, oh, they fucked this up. And I was literally so nervous for him just sitting in my house. I was like, I feel so bad for that kid. I feel so, so bad. Now, granted, they fucked this up. And I was literally so nervous for him, just sitting in my house.

I was like, I feel so bad for that kid. I feel so, so bad. Now, granted, they're not going to a national championship. That team, nobody expected to win the ACC or anything like that. That would have been a massive celebration after that win, especially with Notre Dame being ranked nine and on national TV. I mean, that's a fucking big deal, obviously. But, man, I felt so nervous for him when he missed. I was like, yeah, well. I mean, that's a fucking big deal, obviously. But man, I felt so nervous when he missed.

I was like, yeah, well. Yeah. I mean, we could have fucking expected this. Yeah, you almost knew after they took that long. It was like, oh, okay, here's what's going to, it's going to go from the best night of his life to the worst night of his life. To the worst night of this guy's life. Yeah, in a matter of 15 minutes.

College kid. Yeah. Best night of his life, sent it to overtime. I'm a fucking dog. 50 yarder goes through, ha, yes, this is awesome. Then it's like, oh, Coach Norvell's like, I'm a fucking dog. 50 yarder goes through. Ha! Yes! This is awesome. Then it's like, Coach Norvell's like, I want to move out. Go sit in the locker room for 15 minutes.

Golly, that's tough. The mental toughness there would have had to been out of this world for that to happen. I wish he would have done it. He'll learn from this. Probably get better. He had a hell of that. That ball to go to overtime should be a moment he should relax and fall back on whenever he even, if he starts to question himself at all. Hey, you're a good kicker, kid.

Don't worry about it. There's going to be nights like that, though. And it is not fair, all right? And everybody will move on until it gets brought up in front of you every single time. And you're just going to have to do it. That's part of it, though. That's what being a kicker is.

Yeah. Hell of a ball from the Notre Dame kid though. Fucking, that was awesome. He swung, he went after it, which I appreciate. So whenever you see those big kicks and they like go, like I have the utmost respect for where they were mentally that, hey, I'm going to go after this. I'm not going to try to, I'm not going to try to guide it in. I'm not going to try to do anything.

I'm not scared of the moment. I am going to swing to guide it in. I'm not going to try to do anything. I'm not scared of the moment. I am going to swing my fucking ass off. That's why that Vinatieri 48-yarder in the dome against the Rams, where it just goes dead center and that thing goes through at the top of the thing. It's like he had to swing so hard at that. And to let yourself swing that hard, you have to just be like a full fucking savage, really, to do that. So I have so much respect for that kid last night.

It was an awesome game. Awesome. All around. Now that the world's opening back up, so many new thrills are on the horizon. Okay. And whether you've been in a relationship for years or just getting started, we're excited to get back out there and meet new people. Hell yeah.

His team that he is a legend of uh started out covering even though it looked like

they weren't going to i mean covering somehow in the end with a whole new cast of characters ohio state legend green bay packers all-time leading tackler ladies and gentlemen super bowl champion aj what's up dude what's up guys hey credit Zeet. I accidentally hung up about 10 seconds ago, so he got me scrambling and got me back on. Good job, Zeet. He's also controlling the audio as well and the countdown. So, hey, Zeet, spinning plates back there. Hey, baby, Zeet!

It's a Zeet of production, pal. We appreciate that. Why'd you hang up? Why'd you do that? I didn't mean to. I was just making sure I was closing out everything else like I always do, and I closed out FaceTime. Oh, you're a little bit worried about your cookies getting shown

on the screen. That's why he did that whole poop in the mouth thing. Close out of all because your subconscious is reading. Is that why or is it because I don't have other programs running because I don't want to slow down the stream

or slow down my computer. That's what you guys always yell at me when my system goes off. Oh, what kind of programs you guys running? Well, we appreciate you caring about the show. Honestly, can we talk about a picture that was put on the screen during Cincinnati's game on ESPN the other day? It was your linebacker room. And I knew that it was all it happened. But whenever they actually showed a picture of it, I think it took it to a whole new level for me. You got General Bob Carpenter all the way to the right. You got the Director of Strength and Conditioning Sports Performance

number 51 right there. Right next to 51 here, you got this guy fucking all-time leading tackler for, no, not him, not in the white, in the jersey down here. All-time leading tackler for the Rams. 47 up there. Best jawline in the history of anything. All-time leading tackler for the rams 47 up their best jawline in the history of anything uh all-time leading tackler for the packers and then this guy who's about to take cincinnati to the promised land i mean what a fucking group is there any other stories that

i left out there or missed i mean there's plenty of stories when you think about that room but yeah seeing that picture definitely took me back a few years and made me uh understand like a luke fickle he put up with a lot. That year was very stressful on him. I'm sure it was fun at times, but that dude put up with a lot that year. Was that his first year coaching? He was on the staff, but he was, like, assistant D-line coach. And then my last two years, he was our linebacker coach.

And I know James, so Larinitis is down there. James was a freshman that year, and James said after we left and we were gone, like their first meeting back I think for spring ball when all of us were gone, Schlegs, Bobby and I. Luke's like, hey, I'm just letting you guys know it's not going to be like that. Like that's not what it is. At certain times you guys got to dial it. He's like, I know it was fun. They took care of their business

on the field, but off the field and in the meeting room, like it's not going to be like that anymore. So you would say the way you saw Luke Fickle, probably not the coach he is today, you would assume, but off the field and in the meeting room, it's not going to be like that anymore. So you would say the way you saw Luke Fickle, probably not the coach he is today, you would assume, but you maybe laid the groundwork for him to be like, I got to tighten this shit up. And are you and General Bob Carpenter and Schlage potentially responsible for this absolute dominant run

from the University of Cincinnati Bearcats? Do you feel like you deserve more credit in this entire thing? No, I think we deserve less credit. It wasn't like Luke was letting us run willy-nilly. Trust me, that was never happening. He would hold people accountable 100%, but I think it is known. General Bob Carpenter talks all the time about the interactions he and Luke would have because Bobby just sometimes cannot help but give his opinion on certain plays or things and Luke would just lose his mind at times it was very fun to watch

I would assume general Bob Carpenter had a couple of those interactions with numerous coaches throughout his entire existence as have a lot of players who have a lot of questions about things who also have to be very good by the way to be able to ask those questions Fickle he that's since an egg team first play of the game Des Desmond Ritter, like 81-yard touchdown or something like that. Desmond Ritter seems like he's been their quarterback for, what, 10 years at this point. They are really good. They might be in the Big 12.

Allegedly, they're joining the Big 12. I mean, there's a lot of things happening for your old friend Luke Fickle, man. Yeah, there is, and there's a lot of teams that have come after him trying to lure him away from Cincinnati to be their next head coach. And Luke has turned a lot of them down. I don't know what he would leave for. I mean, he's got a great thing going. He recruits that Cincinnati area very well, too.

And, yeah, Luke's highly respected, that's for sure. The state of Cincinnati is what they actually call that. And I said that on TV. It was one of my first games I commentated for ESPN. And I had a bunch of people going, this fucking idiot doesn't even know Cincinnati is not a state or something. It's like, that's their entire marketing. That's their branding pitch. I think they have shit up around the city, like around the city and everything.

They have billboards. I think back in the day, I don't know if they still have to do it, because now once you become a good team, it's a lot easier to recruit. It's a lot easier to recruit because guys have success. That means their friends want to come. That means people they're connected to, teams are connected to, coaches see that you have provided an incredible situation for one of their players. So other players are getting recommended. I mean, there is, whenever you're winning, things are really good. Luke

Fickle's been able to do that. If you leave, you're not always going to have success elsewhere. You might have to, you know, eat some shit for a while. Maybe that is what Luke's thinking. If they get into the Big 12, and the Big 12 remains one of the Power 5 conferences, it seems like Big 12 is potentially becoming Big East. And I love the Big East, but that's kind of what it feels like. Like, hey, UCF, we're not in any of the Power conferences, so we never get a chance. Get us in there.

Cincinnati, we're falling into the same shit that UCF fell into for a long time. We're really good, but we're not getting the respect. Let's get in there. BYU, let's get in there. There's a couple people that are trying to get in there. Will the powers that be still think the Big 12 is a power conference? I fucking hope so, because there's a lot of good squads out there, especially Luke Fickle's one.

I think it makes sense, though, doesn't it, for Cincinnati to join them? It seems like a natural thing. It gets them in there so they don't have to worry about being an outsider trying to get into the playoffs. You go, you take care of business there, everything's good. I heard Ohio State didn't want Cincinnati in the Big Ten.

Who said that? That's just what somebody on the internet said, I'm sure. I saw it too. I'm sure somebody said that. Why don't you guys let them in the Big Ten, dude? You scared that Fickle's going to come in the Big Ten and start dancing on Ohio State? They could have hired him. He loves Ohio State. They could have hired him. Uh-oh.

He loves Ohio State. They could have. He was the interim head coach for a year. Oh, and they said, get the fuck out of town. Whoa. Then they brought Urban in, yeah. Oh, okay. That seemed to be a good move.

Yeah. That seemed to be a pretty good move. I mean, someday, yeah. Someday, people say all the time, like, yeah, we feel like Ohio State's the only job Luke would leave UC for. So who knows how many years that could be, but eventually it could happen. Why didn't he go to West Virginia? I know West Virginia. We're already in Big 12.

That's right. Don't have to move. Don't have to move conferences. Don't have to have West Virginia say, yeah, okay, you can join us. He could have joined our team years ago, and we wouldn't have to lose to fucking Maryland. Four turnovers, three of them inside a 15-yard line going into sport. We trust in the process. We stink.

What's going on? You got to trust the process, right? Dude, trust the climb or whatever it is. I mean, whatever. It's all about the climb. Listen, Neil Brown's been very nice to me. Larry Cyrus. Yes.

Trust the climb? Great. The climb is a great song by her. Is that the one with the wrecking ball? Nope. That's right. That's wrecking ball. That's a fucking powerful song.

That is. I remember when everybody and their mom was swinging on those things. Big Halloween costume. Whoa. You know? People just fucking shit up. Whoa. Norvell kind of did that last night to his kicker.

Oh, boy. You know what I mean? I enjoyed college football here for the past four days, but I'll tell you what, it's going to be tough to continue to watch whenever the NFL starts, AJ. Big time. Yeah, I'm kind of with you. Yeah, there's certain games that will grab my attention for a little bit,

I guess, when you talk about college football. Last night, the Notre Dame game was fun. That was cool to watch. It was the Mackenzie Milton story. Everything was really cool to see it all play out, and then Notre Dame finds a way, and the kicker drains a huge kick. Yeah, kicker did drain a huge kick after another situation that happened. We already talked about it.

Don't have to talk about it now. Let's keep it moving. But, like, the entire college football, the Virginia Tech, you know, Sam Mapp. Like, then Wisconsin jump around. It was just incredible to see college football back to what college football is, which is a lot more about the pageantry and the tradition and the things going around the field as well. Like, that's a massive part of the entire presentation of college football.

It was good to have that back, I think, AJ. Yeah, it was awesome. You could feel it like with the announcers too. That's all they talked about, how nice it was to have all the people there. What game was Orszlowski on? I was trying to watch it. He was on Michigan. Okay, yeah.

I like when I hear his voice. I just love when I hear Dane's voice. I'm like, oh, there he is. I have to stick around to hear what he's going to give us. Yeah, because there's always going to be something. You know, this particular time he said, can't get tackled by the kicker, as if I wouldn't pick Dan Orlovsky up and drop him through the ground if we were on the field together.

You know what I mean? He said, can't do that or whatever. And so I texted him. I said, hey, I'm not watching a game I'm getting a lot of tweets saying you're saying some disparaging shit you need to watch it this is not the road you want to go down yeah so I told him so then the next punt he called it the McAfee unit yeah oh and then the kid shanked the punt or something and I assume he was sitting there just like ah do I want to start a full out with Pat right now?

I love him, though. He was on a terrible game, though. I mean, that was a bad game. It wasn't supposed to be that bad, but Michigan looked good. Hey, Michigan looked good. There was a couple games. Sark looked good down in Texas. Bingo.

I was about to say, watching Texas, they took offensive line coach. They took like four people from Alabama staff down there. That's a good way to have success, by the way. I think a lot of down there. Like that's a good way to have success, by the way. I think a lot of people have shown that that's a good way to have success. And I wonder if Saban knows that. Like when he hires these people, like, okay, they're going to leave probably in a couple years after we win a couple national championships, and they're probably going to take their entire staff.

I'm just going to have to employ a new staff in there. Is that kind of the way they've operated? And is that just kind of normal, I guess? Because of all the success, yeah, it tends to happen but i who was it there was a coach i believe he left to went and went to michigan where they had a staff meeting and he didn't really want to even confront saban and let him know that he was leaving so he just didn't show up to the staff meeting like he he just bailed and took off and saban got there saw he wasn't there and freaked out and i guess it's kind of it's kind of, it's kind of normal.

Like you don't want to be the, you don't want to go tell Saban like, Hey man, I'm taking this other job. Hey, uh, guy in Texas was Sarkisian, the guy that you saved. Yeah. Yeah. We're going to try to be your competition. We're going to try to get in the sec too. So, all right.

I'm sure Saban's like, yeah, fuck it. Good. I'll just go to an Aflac commercial and I'll just hire Dion Sanders and run the fucking defense next year. And then he'll be a head coach atac commercial, and I'll just hire Deion Sanders to run the fucking defense next year, and then he'll be a head coach at some SEC school. He's crushing it. Oh, yeah. The attention that he's brought to the school immediately,

every one of these schools has to see, like, hey, Deion Sanders has got – the NFL network, obviously, I don't know if they chose strictly because Deion was there, but they got on that game. They got sponsors. I mean, Barstool's covering every single move they do. I mean, it is. Deion, I assume, is going to go up the ranks quickly. What if he ends up in this Aflac team with O'Sabon after somebody leaves

after this year because they're going to win again. I don't want to tell. I understand Ohio State fans in Columbus might have a lot of faith or whatever, and I appreciate you guys for covering, and great bet by you, saying take Ohio State minus 13.5. I did because of you, and you gave me the OHIO. Alabama might beat everybody by fucking 60 this year. They look unstoppable, AJ.

I mean, Alabama is Alabama. New quarterback steps in. First time, went through four touchdowns already. Looks like he's been there forever. He even got Nick Saban spoke very highly of the quarterback after the game too, which usually does not happen. Like he is like a Belichick guy where he doesn't really pump his own players up too much to the media. Did you listen to Bryce Young's interview after the game?

No, I did not. I see why Saban talks him up, by the way. It was he cut a promo basically for his entire team. He did like the perfect quarterback, like ask about being a part of alabama's history books already with one game immediate deflection to coaching staff offensive line offensive coordinator this guy did this the catches this person literally it's just like oh this is a factory created the fucking number one overall pick two years from now i I mean, it was just, it felt like that, you know? And with how Saban felt last year, and he came out and said,

if you're a coach who still believes you've got to run the ball and stop the run and that's how you're going to win, you have no idea what you're talking about. You've got to air it out. Sarkeesian brought in an NFL offense. Mack Jones won ham on there. The year before that, Tua was doing his thing. So I think with Bill O'Brien running it now,

he'll probably get a head coaching job somewhere, especially the more and more we learn about the happenings at Houston. You know, maybe we judge Bill O'Brien a little bit too much. I'm not 100% sure. With Doug Marone down there, it's just like, they're just going to be a fucking machine, a factory forever. And the backup to Bryce Young, by the way,

would start where? Every other school. So it's fucking unbelievable what they've been able to do. He's having fun, too. He put the leather helmet on. He's having fun out there. AJ? He's having fun. I mean, he's smiling more there than he does

when they win the national championship, I feel like. I wonder if he's at the point where he's like, I just got eight more years with $8 million a year to do this, and the team's already set up for the next eight years with the players we currently have, especially now that there's like seven year vets in the in college football because there's the red shirt the gray shirt then the covet year so that's three right there and then you can add four more on there and then there's blue shirts too if somebody gets hurt you could technically get a

doctorate while playing college football if you play this thing right with how the covet year was added in there i mean he's already got the team set up for the next eight years he's got nothing to do well I think to your point about like that that is the one thing about college football that just pales in comparison to the NFL as you look at the quarterback play across the board and like Alabama you know they got a guy who hasn't played yet comes out and just looks unbelievable granted he's got a bunch of studs to throw to but you watch a lot of these other games and it's just like... Why are you talking about West Virginia? I wasn't specifically

talking about West Virginia. I was talking about that Penn State Wisconsin game. Again, great defense. Penn State's quarterback overthrew his receivers. Tua's younger brother looked good. Yeah, he did. Leah. Leah.

He fucking looked really good. Yeah, he did. Leah. Leah. Tongue of a Leah. He fucking looked really good. You don't like Huggy? I mean, I just don't know how West Virginia hasn't had another quarterback that's come in and played better than this guy. I don't understand it. Practices must be impossible to perform well if this is the only guy that performs well.

Seems like we got a lot of mistakes to be made, but you're right. Wisconsin, Graham Mertz, too. Yeah, he looked like shit. Whoa. He did. I mean, he had're right. Wisconsin, Graham Mertz, too. Yeah, he looked like shit. Whoa. He did. I mean, he had that game where he went, hey, listen, I watched a lot. It is, but it just, I don't know. I mean, the guys literally wide open,

and they had quarterbacks overthrowing them by like 25 yards multiple times for both teams. I enjoyed college football this weekend, and that is something I don't always say. You know, I can't. It was great. I don't know. That 16 know, I can't. Yeah, it was great. Not at all. That 16-10 Wisconsin-Penn State shit show was awesome.

I mean, you have no – it's like watching the MLS. You have no idea what's going to happen. There's going to be something that's going to happen at a level that you – like, you know how they – what was that called? The reading – Oh, yeah, Accelerated Reader. Accelerated Reader level, you know, whenever you're at a level and then you read a book that's allegedly like four things down or whatever.

Like, this is a third accelerated reading. You're at a ten. Sometimes there'll be some plays that happen in college football. It's like, oh, that's a first-grade peewee football thing. That just happened right there. And then all of a sudden, out of nowhere, you'll see a guy make a snag. It's like the highs and the lows of college football mixed with all the bullshit around it

The amazing tradition It was electrifying this weekend Is this what everybody loves about college football? It's starting to make a lot more sense now all of a sudden And I won basically every bet I made I think that helps I think that helps the whole thing, AJ You think it'll continue on that same path?

Well, Thursday night we got the fucking greatest of all time To ever play football Playing against Jerry Jones' team. What's the line? Seven and a half, but I forgot to mention earlier. Come on. Is it? Zach Martin's out. Zach Martin's out, but Lyle Collins and then

who's their other tackle? Tyron Smith. Lyle Collins didn't play at all last year. Tyron Smith played two games last year, so that with Zach Martin being out, Dak being out all last year, Cowboys offense might struggle. So everybody on earth is hammering the Buccaneers. Right?

Which isn't correct. We just don't know. We don't know what the Cowboys are going to be. We have no clue. And Tyron Smith, though, he did say he feels as good now as he has in a long time, I guess. That dude, when he's healthy, is unbelievable. Very, very scary human to face, too.

Zach Martin, guard, right? Yeah. Okay, so obviously having a good guard is massive. It makes a massive difference for your tackle as well. We saw it with Quentin Nelson here. Okay, so I'm not – they can plug somebody in at guard, though, right? Can't they? Yeah, but with Sue and Vita Vea, they're not just blocking nobody.

They got big boys up there in the middle. Vita Veya, I completely forgot about Vita Veya. One of the coolest dudes of all time. Yeah, this defense looks like they're going to hum down there in Tampa Bay. That last half of the season going into the playoffs and the Super Bowl, they were the only defense that you could legitimately look at and say,

hey, that defense will win a Super Bowl right there. Everybody gets mesmerized by the offense. We all do because they're awesome and plays are cool. That's where you get to see the strategery. Everybody else is reacting to the offense. You love that. There was only a couple of defenses last year that I really thought could win a

Super Bowl. The Saints defense there for a bit, it was like, hey, that offense is really good, but nobody's talking about that fucking defense. They're a very good defense. Colts have a great defense that is where we gotta start focusing on a little bit if that bucks defense who kept everybody all starters paid everybody somehow and they only continue to grow under bowls down there who became the highest paid assistant coach in the nfl this past offseason i mean that fucking buccaneers they might win by 30 well and that's why dallas is such a mark, because of how terrible their defense was last year.

Like, if Brady comes out slinging, as we all expect him to do, and Dallas hasn't figured it out quite yet on the defensive side, it could be an absolute wrap. AJ, Thursday night, NFL football is back. I am so excited, dude. Yeah, and it's a huge game, I feel like, that everybody wants to see. I mean, Cowboys, Bucs, are you kidding me? Let's see how much time Dak has to throw.

That's the question, I feel. And they're going to want to establish Zeke and try to get a run game going for sure, but can they protect Dak to give him enough time? Listen, I love Dak. I said this in the first hour. After watching Hard Knocks, I love Dak even more. All right? I like him as a person.

But coming back from an injury without your guy in the middle of the pocket, I mean, with Vita and Dominick and Sue, let alone JPP and, I mean, White, oh, my God, they fucking are stacked up. Yeah. They really are. And their young guys in the secondary only got older. Yep. Yeah, they got more experience, big game experience.

Winfields. A lot of expectations now. They understand it. They've been there. They've done it. Oh, this feels like a blowout. It feels like alternate spread, doesn't it? Yeah, it really does.

It feels like alternate spread. Don't you say it. When it feels like that, does that usually happen, though? Doesn't it usually? Sometimes it does. Yeah, I don't know. I think it only gets mentioned whenever it doesn't happen, when everybody says it.

You know, when everybody says it and happens, it's like, yeah, we knew this was going to happen, and everybody just moves along. But if you say, hey, this feels like it's going to be a fucking blowout and it's not, then it's like, oh, freezing cold take. I remember when they said this. Oh, is this Skip Bayless 2.0?

Oh, Colin Cowherd with the hottest of hot takes. That's what the internet turns into. But it just feels like, and this is what sportsbooks love, especially week one, first game, they have to love this. It just feels like this should be a Tampa rock. Yep.

It really does feel like it. And to be honest, I can't wait for it. What concert's happening beforehand, AJ, you know? Oh, is there a concert? Are they doing it? Oh, yeah. Come on. Oh, yeah, it's Super Bowl, man.

Probably Goo Goo Dolls. No, no, no. Is it Kid Rock? Ed Sheeran. Oh, that's right. Yeah. He's going to be just slapping that little tiny guitar. Oh, yeah.

It's not Bob Ritchie. Stop shooing that in, dude. Past it. I thought you guys couldn't hear me. No one responded. Well, we were trying to move past it because we were trying to be an adult show. You're mature. Congrats.

Congratulations on being an adult. I'd be good. I think he is doing the Lions Thanksgiving performance, though. Bob Ritchie, as is tradition. This is a fucking championship belt, pal. Guess who had it before me? Joe Rogan. Well, he also beat COVID in a different fashion than I did.

Yeah. He did every medicine you could do. I did vitamins. That's what I did. I did vitamins. It took me a lot longer. I was vaccinated. But people say if I wasn't vaccinated, I wouldn't take it.

It's crazy times. Crazy times. It's mentally a fucking problem, AJ. Because you can't go out. You're in house arrest. You know what I mean? And if you go outside, you're literally a danger to society. So it's like, I'm going to fucking just, I guess, sit in my house.

I gained probably 11 pounds, if I had to guess. Just started eating everything. Aren't you thankful, though? Yeah, I did. I had the eating strain. Yeah, I got to smoke. That's a damn shame. Hey, you got to be kind of thankful, though, that you have, like, a big house

and you have a huge yard, too, where you can get out. And you're not, like, in the 19th story of a building bro i was i was outside yesterday i got burnt from indiana sun i didn't know that could still happen especially this late and how far we are from the equator i didn't know the sun still had it shout out to you got out so i'm still got it it's pretty thin right now september 5th dude sun's doing pretty good in indiana still burning me up but i thought about that i continue to think about numerous times through that if i was a teenager or in the house that i grew up in what a fucking nightmare i i don't know how so shout out to everybody that had to become you know an immunity um an immunicorn i don't want to be called an immune corn i was thinking maybe i'm

just a member of a citizen of the united states of america oh that's pretty good here we go i mean and i like to think i'm an immunifier you don't want to bring all these uh immunity to the unity of the people that had to battle against the son of a bitch but whenever i heard what joe rogan was doing to beat it govid at the same time i wasn't doing any of that i was fascinated i'm like how come this wasn't just available for me who do i gotta pay to fucking get this same type of treatment and i guess that's the 80 million dollar a year difference exactly it did make me feel a little bit better just knowing like hey if i get this if i can somehow find a way i just throw a hundred thousand bucks at this i'll probably

beat it too i mean he was on vitamin drip, water drip. He had all these different drips. If you throw enough money at it, you'll beat it. I just chucked Gatorade Zero, Zinc, Vitamin D, Vitamin C, and something else.

Emergency? Oh, Elder Bears. Oh, the Elder Bears. I fuck with elderberries. I love those. Shout out all the elderberries, dude. Have you had these yet, AJ? You probably know what these are.

Is it the liquid that you take as a shot? No, it's these little, that's vitamin D? No, B12. You're talking about, right? I mean, I think there's elderberry liquid I've taken. Well, it's awesome. It tastes, they add little gummies. It tasted good.

Allegedly, it's like, it's a PED for your immune system. Here we go. Okay, one of those super fruits, like ausea, or whatever the fuck it is. Oh, yeah. You know what I mean, AJ? Yeah, nailed it. Ausea. Is that what it's called?

That's what it is. That's how you pronounce it. Yeah, that's it. Yeah, I agree. Let's get to a break. There's berries. You don't fucking fuck with Ausea? I mean, yeah, I have. When they were the hot thing,

when it was that the fat of Ausea berries was around, yeah, I messed with them a little bit. Oh, see, that's the difference between you and me. I'm a thermostat and not a thermometer, okay? I'll set the tone. Whenever Ausea is in, it's in in my eyes. I'm not judging by other people's Ausea's habits on whether or not I want to eat it.

I've heard it's, is it not a super fruit? I've decided I'm going to get more healthy after this thing. I'm coming out of COVID like brand new me. I'm going to start doing the immune stuff. Hell yeah. For sure. You'll stick with it. Yeah, yeah.

No problem. Hey, I almost died. Okay. I know. It's good to see you. To be clear I don't ever I didn't ever feel like that

Okay Phew And I never get actually sick So I don't know What to compare it to But you had a I mean 104 And a half degree temperature

Is no joke Yeah Yeah It was hot Yeah it was Very hot It was It was hot in there

Felt like it was on fire It felt like magnifying glasses out with the sun And the inside of my body was Whatever you're lighting, the paper you're lighting on fire It did feel like a sauna inside of me And then immediately after that Chills The chills felt like I was on the North Pole

Because I was already all sweaty And then the chills took over And then all of a sudden, the heat would come back. And then the aches. It was just like, it was like a 27 hour, maybe 28 hour, like full on. Big time. Ah! You know?

Laying in bed. Ah! Why? Should have got all those drips that were already gone. Who do I call? Is that on DoorDash? I don't know. Probably.

Fucking shout out DoorDash, by the way. Yeah, shout out. That guy got me through this entire thing. But even then, I felt terrible. I was like, just... Listen, I was outside with my dogs there. Fucking don't breathe. Careful.

I don't want you to die. I don't want it to be me. So sorry to interrupt, but I want to let you know that if you're not gambling with FanDuel, you're wrong. Okay? FanDuel Sports you're wrong. Okay?

Shout-out to FanDuel. Shout-out to you. Let's get back to the show. A.J. Hawk joins us from his humble abode that is 27,000 square feet on 35 acres. A.J. Hawk, hour three, time to break some news.

Go ahead, pal. Have at it. Oh, man, you know what? I'm going to have to push this until the end, maybe after hours today. I don't know. I don't have all my sources all in line yet, so I don't want to put anything out there that may not be true. Okay, let's run through some things we haven't talked about. Josh Norman is signing with the 49ers.

Jay Glazer releases information. Josh Norman, formerly of Carolina, then of Washington, then at Buffalo, now at the 49ers. That defense adds another weapon in there. We have no idea how he'll fit in, where he'll play, what he'll be doing. Josh Norman came on our show after the Derrick Henry situation and said he was going for it. Like, what, it's going to happen. And he was very humble, very cool. I assume he's excited for an opportunity to be on another squad that could potentially go on a Super Bowl run, just like he was with humble, very cool. I assume he's excited for an opportunity to be on another squad

that could potentially go on a Super Bowl run, just like he was with the Buffalo Bills. Congrats to both sides and hashtag JNew, obviously. He did, but don't you think it shows the confidence they have in Josh Norman that they didn't wait until after week one to sign him? So now if he's on the open day roster, his salary is guaranteed for the year, they feel like, hey, we're going to have him all year. It's not like a trial thing to see if he still has him.

That is a very good point that should be talked about, that they are planning on paying him for at least the rest of the season because they brought him in now. There's still time. There is still time for anybody to do anything. Not saying the Niners won't, but I'm just saying there's time for a lot of stuff. TJ Watt is currently actively participating in

a sit-in, a hold-in for a new contract. It has not been settled. All training camp, he's been doing this. I guess he's been going through individual drills, but not doing any team drills, not really doing any one-on-one reps or anything like that. It is now carried into the first week of the season,

and it has been reported by Ari Mirov of Pro Football Focus at MySportsUpdate. Important that the Steelers have a rule not to do extensions once the season begins. If Saturday becomes the deadline here, the deal would be huge if it gets done. Also, is that the same rule they have for fucking T.J. Watt, I wonder, when T.J. Watt is potential defensive player of the year, back-to-back years here and planning on being the highest-paid player on the defensive side of the ball? At-tone digs, Pittsburgh Steelers without T.J. Watt?

Watt? No T.J. Watt? Watt? He hasn't played any drills or any meaningful reps at all in training camp, and he's a defensive end. Does that matter? Will that not matter? We saw him training with J. all in training camp, and he's a defensive end. Does that matter? Will that not matter? We saw him training with J.J. Watt, even sitting in frozen ponds.

Is all that for naught because he's not going to play for the Steelers? Watt? Watt? Watt? Watt? You know, I know, A.J. knows the meaningful reps. If he's going through individuals, he'll be fine. I'm not worried about the team stuff.

Last year, Cam Hayward got extended on September 6th. Hopefully, maybe T.J. gets something done today or tomorrow. I would expect that it gets done before the season. Is your source saying this, or are you just listening to everybody else's sources? I was just thinking with my brain that, hey, you want the money. You want TJ Watt to play. Let's get this done. Hey, let's put our swords aside.

You want the money. You want him on your team, right? Yep. Fucking do it.J. Watt to play. All right. Let's get this done. Hey, let's put our swords aside. You want the money. You want him on your team, right? Yep. Fucking do it. Yep. Because if not, does this become a bigger deal, especially with the Pittsburgh Steelers who are going to have to go through stuff? New offensive coordinator, Ben Roethlisberger,

not Etch and Stone, this is his last season. Is Pittsburgh in trouble if they can't get this deal done? Because Minka's sitting there looking for a deal. Joe Hayden said he's getting out of there. Oh, no. Is everything on fire in Pittsburgh, A.J. Hawk? Well, if they do not come to an agreement before Saturday, does he still play in the game?

How does this work? Does he retire? He's still under contract. Is T.J. Walk going to be run out of the league by the Pittsburgh Steelers? Wow! Is T.J. Walk going to retire? Because the holdout of a game is a lot of money. I don't know how that necessarily works, especially for the T. Wow. Is TJ Walker going to retire? Because the holdout of a game is a lot of money. And I don't know how that necessarily works,

especially for the TJ Watt legacy. Are the Steelers flexing right now that they have all the leverage? Because there's really nothing that TJ can do if they don't give him a deal, AJ. I guess. But TJ also probably feels like he has a lot of leverage because he knows, hey, they need me. They know what I can do on the field. And the fans, I'm sure, aren't – you guys could tell me more the field. And the fans, I'm sure, you guys could tell me more.

Last one out. I'm saying, like, get it done now. He's the last one introduced. Okay, yeah. So the fans, I assume, are on TJ's side here saying, hey, whatever he needs, give it to him. Nah, Yenzers ain't like that. They're on his side.

He's the last one being introduced. They will go bananas for TJ Watt when he does his karate kick thing with the whole thing. They go bananas. But if you cross, okay, the Steelers, they will fucking get them out. Get them out of here if that's the way it is. You get to play for the Steelers, pal, is how they view it. I'm not sure that's how Diggs feels,

but that is how Yinzers normally feel in these types of situations. Am I wrong or am I right? I think there might be two different sections of Steelers fans. Oh, this is the business of the fan. I'm seeing a lot on social media of just pay TJ whatever he wants, blah, blah, blah, stuff like that. But then there is also the group that is always for the team. We'll be fine.

TJ ain't never going to beat JJ. is always for the team. We'll be fine. TJ ain't never going to beat JJ. The issue, I guess, is the Steelers don't guarantee money after year one, potentially, but they do it with signing bonuses and stuff like that so that the guaranteed money offsets. Yeah, so the Steelers normally fuck people over in their deals.

And TJ Watt's saying, hey, we're in a new time. I'm a new player. This ain't how it's going to go forever. I will change the whole thing here. If it was good enough for defense player of the year, Troy Palomo, if it was good enough for defense player of the year, James Harrison, it should be good enough for runner-up defense player of the year, T.J. Watt. Okay?

See, you heard that at the end? Yeah. That's what I'm talking about. That's the answers that I was referring to there when I was saying, there are some people that love T.J. Watt. They'll celebrate a deal getting done with T.J. Watt, by the way, if it happens. If it's a massive amount of money, they'll celebrate it. But if numbers get leaked to a deal that he hasn't agreed to by the Steelers organization,

which does happen in negotiations between teams and players, where the teams will just accidentally leak out, hey, we offered him fucking $25 million a year. Oh, that's a lot. Could you imagine saying no to $25 million a year to play a fucking game? Like, that is what happens in these negotiations. And in Pittsburgh, the Indians will hear that and be like, hey, you're fucking right.

What is this guy doing? But if he was to sign for $26 million a year, they'd be like, hey, he deserves it. He deserves it. So it's just a fascinating thing that all they give a'd be like, hey, he deserves it. He deserves it. It's a fascinating thing that all they give a fuck about is whether or not he's playing. If he's not playing, fuck him. If he is playing, we love him. I think that's how a lot of fan bases are, AJ. I hope a lot of fan bases

are like that. Like, hey, if you're with us, we are 100% have your back. If not, see you later. Go play for somebody else. I think they find a way to get it done. Absolutely. I would assume they already have the numbers somewhat figured out. It's the structure, like you said, how they try to work things and guarantees after a year, like opt-outs.

I'm sure the structure of it is what they're trying to figure out right now, but I don't see any way they get to the game and they don't have him signed. Whatever happened, they just deal? Yeah. You know? Those work out a lot. Good question. They do.

They do. I've done numerous. I haven't spit on my hand, especially now in the COVID era, but I'm fucking. Actually, I should be probably spitting in people's mouths because I have juice. Is that how it works? I guess I can do whatever I want. I can go suck COVID through a straw right now. That's right.

If I wanted to. Allegedly. Allegedly. Why'd you stop? Well, because of what you were thinking and what everybody else was thinking. I had to clarify my statement. That's right. If I wanted to. Allegedly. Why'd you stop? Well, because of what you were thinking and what everybody else was thinking. I had to clarify my statement. That's all. I was talking about having a straw. Like I got my big...

Where's my big cup? Oh, no. Did I throw it away? No, no. I can't find it on the desk. Okay. Yeah, I'm shocked. Actually, the boys do a little cleanup around here whenever I was going. I appreciate you guys doing that. Wiping it down. Making sure COVID's out of here. Especially the smart night old thing. But I got a new cup.

I don't know if you saw it earlier. It's this big, fat boy. Fits in my cup holder perfectly, and it's big. I got four of them from McAllister's. I'm washing them. The plastic cups, Mark. I'm washing these things. They're my new thing every single day.

I absolutely love it. Put a little ice in there. I'm living healthier now. I'm living healthier now. Congrats to me. So do you take your doordash starbucks order and pour it into this new cup well so starbucks cup i have found out this morning does have the exact same mount as the big cup that i love now but there isn't this the big

starbucks logo on it so shout out to mcallister's giving me that no straws from starbucks either no yeah well i got the little twisty straw yeah the bendy one yeah but but these ones uh on the pack it says we'll stay away from sea turtles noses perfect okay so they promised me they got the whole thing i can ask for i got a good pack of those things that's another huge scam too the whole turtles and the straws you hate turtles it is it absolutely the straw situation. What are you talking about? You hate turtles. It absolutely is. The straws are not a danger to the turtles.

What? What research? Did you swim out the plastic island out there in the middle of the fucking ocean and see for yourself, pal? They're saying it's larger than Texas. It's all plastic because you over there are saying these sea turtles can just suck down plastic straws. I don't They're saying it's larger than Texas Why? It's all plastic Because you Over there saying

These sea turtles Can just suck down plastic straws I don't care Allegedly though If you drink out of a plastic straw You are basically taking a gun out And shooting a sea turtle in the head At least one

Right between the eyes That's what I was told So what research were you told? Where are you at Sitting on this end of this whole thing? Ohio I don't know what to believe I just know

The straw situation Oh so now you don't. I don't know what to believe. I just know the straw situation. Oh, so now you don't know. Now you don't know. You dirtbag. Nobody knows. Like you say, Pat, it's all just a movie. Everybody's just a character because there's no way to ever know

what the truth is on anything right now. Bro, who's paying researcher? Okay, who's paying science? Who's telling that media? How about that turtle? He has a straw in his mouth. How about that, AJ? He probably can breathe better.

Oh, come on. Way to go, AJ. Are we sure that's a straw? I don't know, to be honest. It looks like a piece of plastic. I'm not certain it's a straw. It looks like a bottle cap. It looks like the thing I used, the dripper to put the thing in the COVID test.

It does. Marinebiologist.com gave dripper, to put the thing in the Coke. Oh, yeah. It does. I don't know. Marinebiologist.com gave me that, so I don't know. That's legit. And what AJ's going to say is, well, who's paying marinebiologist.com? That's why we can't talk about fucking anything, huh? That's why sports are the best.

Yeah. Bingo. Because, hey, they're going to go out and do it or they're not. And they'll be, oh, the refs are fucking moving balls. I'm like, all right. I guess that's the case. But everything else you have to automatically call into question. Everything.

You have to. I was going to get a medicine thing, and the pharmacist said, no, you can't get it. What? I was like, well, a doctor just said I should try it. They're like, no, you can't. See ya. I was like, all right, fuck. All right, I'm going to go back to my house then, I guess.

What the hell is that about? Well, I think it was that horse thing. Oh, the Ivermectin. Didn't he write a script? Huh? Didn't the doctor write you a script for it, like a prescription? Yep. Yep.

And the pharmacy said, nah, sorry. Interesting. What the hell is that? Like, are you the fucking? I don't know, though. Like, people don't, at least from what I see online, like, people don't have strong feelings towards that medicine at all. Like, they don't care either way if you take it.

Seems like it from what I see. I didn't know that was a thing, right, by the way, because the world that I live. But I went over there because I got a Z-Pack at the end to get the chest thing, which I'm still battling. And then there was another one, and I put it in there. You can't get this. I'm like, I didn't fucking say it, dude. What do you think? I write my own script here?

What are we talking about? We have a new policy and all that too or whatever. And I'm like, I don't know how this works, but like, are you guys the ones that decide that?

I guess you guys do. I thought, whatever the case, just give me the Z-pad. We'll get back to you tomorrow or whatever. It's like, all right. So then I hop on the internet,

obviously, and I search that. I'm like, okay, thank God I didn't fucking get it. I didn't know that you automatically just jump into the middle of a war if you take that stuff. Apparently.

I guess there are some doctors, though, that say, hey, this actually does help. And if you pay a shit ton of money, you can get it. And let's assume that the people that are paying a bunch of money to the doctors are probably being taken care of the best. I would guess. 100%. Did you see the testing thing that Rogan had to see if he was positive or not? Yeah, COV-2.

I'm fucking dropping these little drops into these things, saving tests because there's one or two at the local Walgreens or CVS in the 50 square mile radius. And he's fucking got that electric. Fucking negative today. It's cool's cool i love him that's 80 million a year though yes that's what happens but i do like that everybody's attacking who for him for taking that stuff it's like you don't think the people making 80 million a year are probably

getting the best treatment who's telling you it's bad treatment oh probably somebody that's against it okay here we go now we get into that entire bullshit of the world by the way. Well, people won't even say it. I've heard people, they won't say that, say ivermectin because they their YouTube gets demonetized or gets taken down, I heard. What is it? We won't say it, by the way. I'm not getting into this. Those clips, I believe,

in the beginning were... I'm sure Connor has plenty on this. Oh, Jesus. I don't need it. Well, it's true though, probably. I'm saying you're informed. I mean, probably. Maybe. I know stuff. This does seem like this is right in your internet.

This feels like. I look up stuff. You know, sue me. What do you want from me? I got to find out all the angles. I didn't take the stuff because I literally was told by the pharmacy I wasn't allowed. It was like. Connor, hey, for Connor's next bath time.

Has that ever happened? No, I don't know. I've never gotten medicine. But this is like one of the first times I've had to go to a public place to get medicine. You know, normally with the coats, whatever this thing is. So I actually had to do the full drive-thru thing. The full thing. I had gloves on, by the way.

They did as well. It was a full situation. You're not allowed to have this. Who the fuck told you that? Is that how this works? I have no idea this is how this works. Like, is this really? And then I got home and I looked up.

I was like, all right. Hey, why didn't you tell me I was potentially going to get dropped into a war here? He's like, well, it's not technically you. It would be me that would be getting dropped. I'm like, well, I'm not taking it. I'm not leaving my house again, by the way. I'm never doing that entire process.

But it was wild, dude. And then I saw the Rogan stuff and then the internet was going crazy. I was like, thank God I didn't get it man sounds like i could die yeah sounds like i could die from it i guess uh fucking wild time to be alive dude i'm happy to be here though yeah i'm happy to be here as well i was just connor it was not a shot at you i was saying you these are it felt like it was right in your wheelhouse con for instance if we have some gambling thing we're talking about uh-huh we say okay we're going to tow sure if we're going green bay packers iowa hawkeyes baseball whatever the

case we're going to tie yeah aj just pointed out that if we need to go into conspiracy world on the internet it seems as if the guy with the mullet in the, you know, maybe growing back to muscle, you are our guy for that. I don't think that's a shot. I think that was like just understanding, you know, everybody's kind of attributions to the show. Okay, yeah.

No, I understand that more. If AJ's opened his mouth about something, my name's coming out of it. I'm going to tell him, hey, shut up, dude. Because what else am I supposed to say? Let's go back to the 5-Hour Energy shut up, dude. Because what else am I supposed to say? Let's go back to the five-hour energy phone lines, dude. Let's go to Tim in Missouri. Tim, what's going on?

It's classic. Hey, Pat, congrats on beating COVID. $20 million is a lot of fucking money. And I want you to have all of your hands on A.J. Hawk's money. So my question is, after your time as a professional baseball player, figuring out you needed to be a left-handed batter, do you need to be swinging the skinny sticks on the same side as Phil Mickelson and Bubba Watson?

Tim, great point there. I will say that although the baseball bat feels much more comfortable from the from the left-handed side of the plate like that just feels nice you know it feels like you know i'm really in there and that might be because when i had to hold yeah oh yeah because when i had to hold it was literally like an open stance over here so maybe it's just my body's more natural over here anytime you got that big lumbering arm like i got brother you can really you know pull that thing through golf though i feel like a complete buffoon here i mean there is no chance that i'm a lefty in the golf world speaking of when you said no chance you have firmed your stance that i'm not going to take that money from

you i feel like i've been pretty firm from the jump. That's why I put it out there. There's been no doubts? No, I don't think I've ever even thought about doubting that situation. You want to make it $30 million, dude? No, I mean, it doesn't matter what the number is. You know that. Well, so fuck it. Why don't I just make it $35 million? Yeah, because then it sounds dumb like it's not real.

I want it to still feel real. You are so awesome, the life you've lived dumb like it's not real. I want it to still feel real. You are so awesome the life you've lived. 20 million feels real to this guy. This is amazing. AJ. I mean, I'm not going to, I don't want to give it away. I'm not going to have to. Hey, I'll have you know that I did have some

birdie fuel boxes in my backyard. And for those that don't know what that is, that's like 10 cents a golf ball boxes you can buy or whatever and have them shipped to your house it's called birdie fuel and maybe during covid you know i was getting some covid strokes in wow and i am starting to get a little bit more flexible by the way remember i'm healthier now after covid i'm i'm i'm eating elderberries right and stuff like that for my immune system. I'm waking up and being active. Did some push-ups this morning.

This will continue. We know this will continue. We know that. As soon as I woke up, hit some push-ups. Let's go. Wow. Yeah, I'm in shape. I'm going to box a couple people tonight.

I'm fasting again. I am starving right now after 14 days of eating like a fat ass. By the way, I am absolutely starving now. But the golf swing is only getting better, I think, AJ. starving now but the golf swing is only getting better i think aj and i'm actually looking you know i'm looking at some houses potentially on golf courses really i hope you know like i am taking your bet actual serious here like the 20 million thing is it's an actual thought in my head every single time i line up on my little mat in my backyard i'm like i'm gonna get 20 million from this fucking guy like i, I actually think like that.

So I hope you're being serious as well. I am deadly serious, yes. There's no chance. But, yeah, I appreciate you taking it seriously. Patrick Cantlie got $15 million this week. Damn. That ain't even the same amount that I'll get if I get top 50 in the Champions Tour. Even more.

I was watching that Patrick Cantlie. I was so happy for him. Congrats. You're fucking rich. Good boy, Patty. He made $14.8 million in his career earnings going into this season. Just this

past weekend, he made $15 million, let alone the weekend before. Congratulations to Patrick Cantley winning the FedEx Cup title. What an absolute performance against DeChambeau a week ago. And then holding off everybody this week in unbelievable fashion with everybody

pushing at him. Rahm was dialing it in. Nod was going for a little bit there. I mean, congrats to Patrick. What an absolute stud. I wonder what he's going to do with his $15 million, which is less money than I'll make for making top 50 in a champions event when I'm 51 years old. Boom.

AJ. I mean, yes, you're right. Hopefully at some point we will get patrick on the show maybe you can ask him about what he thinks your chances are of of actually collecting on the 20 mil it seems he's rich now he's gonna just he's probably gonna pander to me if i had to guess oh it seems like he's got a good swing you know i probably do like i got 31 years to practice that dude plays with every wednesday of every tournament he's ever played in. He has to play a pro-am with a group of amateurs. And you know how many guys that consider themselves scratch golfers or better

that are with him and they just play like garbage out there because it's just a different world? That's a practice round. That's not even a real round. Who are these guys? What do they do? They own restaurants and stuff? Like, who are they?

And they play golf seven days a week. Okay, it doesn't matter. I mean, AJ, AJ, I feel like throughout my life. You were a kicker. and stuff? Who are they? And they play golf seven days a week. Okay, it doesn't matter. It does. AJ. AJ. I feel like throughout my life... You were a kicker. You could repeat the same thing over and over. We get it. And? Guess who does that very well, too? Golfers.

Guys that play golf from two years on. That's what I'm saying, though. I don't have to beat them. I just gotta get top 50. Top 50 is... You don't worry about that. Just worry about getting in the tournament. You don't have to worry about top 50 right now. Hey, my cable went out. Okay. So the only live shit I could watch in one particular room was NBC channels. I watched that corn fairy tour. Okay. A lot of that corn fairy tour, better outfits out of everybody on that. There's people with, I mean, part of golf is how you look absolutely style corn fairy tour

needs to pick it up a little bit there's a couple swagged out guys but a lot of then i watch the champion stuff there's a lot of people that seem to have never golfed before the age of 40 that get onto that champion's tour out of nowhere this business guy just hit a ball 150 yards you know you start falling in love with golf about 15 years ago whenever you think that that happens in Champions Tour. I think you are... No, it doesn't. Randoms don't just all of a sudden... It's harder to qualify for the Champions Tour than the PGA

Tour because there's so few spots. This is that we know more about space than the ocean. Shit. Exactly. What? Exactly. What? It's all bullshit. That is not... You should hear yourself right now, dude. Jesus Christ, bro. You didn't know idiom earlier now you're spewing this nonsense good luck of living on the course i'm sure you'll do great

the putter situation is going to be one though you know what i mean like that is going to become something i mean phil mickelson gave me a little piece of information there he has like a 10 foot stroke a 20 foot stroke a 30 foot stroke and then you just kind of judge off of that that's going to take me a good 10 to 15 years to figure out i think every day i got another time though i got 31 years to get this better 31 fucking years dude are you kidding me that's so long yeah that's so long for you to have this dream and then to watch it just be shattered in 31 years that That's what I'm here for. Are you going to be caddying for me? No, because you'll be trying to I promise

you I am rooting for you. Absolutely. Oh, yeah, I bet. I'm always rooting for somebody who's going to take $20 million from me. It's because it's like I'm rooting for, you know, anything I know is not going to happen. Like I'm rooting for him. I want I like that person. I want him to do well, but there's no chance. You're talking about like a high state beating happen. See, I'm rooting for him. I like that person. I want him to do well, but there's no chance. You're talking about

like a high state beating Alabama. Oh! I didn't want to do it. I didn't have to do it. Sick burn. How am I going to continue on the show now? The little problem is I feel like I'm kind of a little part of that cult over there, so I feel like an asshole for saying that. It is definitely

a cult, by the way. Yeah. What are you talking about? I was there. I was in the middle of it. I was at their little gathering, the cult gathering. It was at his house. It was awesome. It was a cool party. They were raising a lot of money. I mean, they were really all in on Ohio State.

I have nothing but respect and appreciation for that fan base. What I'm saying is they might be the meanest fan base on all of Twitter. Well, they're Ohio, and they're a cult. Really? Do you feel that way, really? All I did on Thursday night was say I didn't think that that was pass interference or something like that. Boy, oh, boy.

Yeah. They came. Were they more ruthless than the Dolphins fans? Dolphins fans out there are pretty ruthless. I never got into it with the Dolphins fans because they've always stunk, so I've never had like an issue. Ah, see, you just started. See, tell us tomorrow.

Good luck. When that pod rolls up on you, that pod of Dolphins fans. Yeah. It was a big one, too. That wasn't Snowflake. No, no, no. That was not Snowflake. No, no.

That was that shark that was taking all these. Yeah. Oh, I saw Snowflake. They were fucking ruthless, dude. They came hard. I respected it. Let's go to Juan in Illinois.

What's going on, Juan? Juan. Hi, the boys. How we doing on this Monday? Hey, great, Juan. What do you want to talk about, pal? Boston Connor, you're a fucking stooge.

I'm not even... I'm a Bears fan. I know Justin Fields is going to do incredible when he gets the chance, but I'm not here dick riding him like you are with Matt Jones, pal. Hey, listen. Sue me. I root for my team.

Hey, yeah, absolutely. Sure, I'm a ball washer for the Patriots. What about Belichick? And what about him? Are we not going to mention him either? So you're riding not just with Matt Jones, you're riding with Bill Belichick with $150 million in guarantees in one day in the free agency. No matter what. Until I die, even if he goes 0-17.

Because he's out there squatting. That's right. 250 pounds for 15 reps. How come it doesn't look like it's 250 pounds at all? It just says 25. Well, this is his warm-up set. Okay. AJ, you still getting under a bar at the age of 69?

I sure hope so, yeah. Really? I'll try. I'll definitely try I think doing squats, maybe that's Belichick's secret Maybe that's what keeps him young You get under a bar right now? You get in there? Yeah, definitely depends on the time

And how swollen my knee is and how my ankle and foot feel But yeah, I definitely still squat Anything else? Your knee and ankle and foot My groin and hip You're not training for anything no i know squats are squats are big foundational piece for your whole body like it's you need it you don't want you know hey you know pat duck footed no cakes like you don't want that true true deadlift though i heard is the thing you're supposed to do the one with this one

the uh the the side one they've said studies said that that is the most correlation, the best correlation to faster 40 times and more explosive jumps during a combine is this one. Yeah, like the trapezoid one? Yeah, whatever that one, the deadlift one. Yeah, this one. What's that called, AJ? It's great.

A deadlift? Yeah, but the bar. You step inside something with it. Like a hex bar or whatever it is. Yeah, there it is,. A deadlift? Yeah, but the bar. You step inside something. Yeah. Like a hex bar or whatever it is. Yeah, there it is, that one. I've heard that is the one. And I was told that by people who went to Stanford.

Great exercise. It is. Steve Jobs. Do you do that every morning? No, I've never been a big deadlifter. I don't know. I don't have good enough form, I think, where I could mess my back up pretty good. I almost pass out every time.

Yeah. Well, AJ can't. Talk to Schlage. He actually passes out. He does those in boots, and I assume he just fucking passes out right on that thing? He probably passes out and still holds the weight and comes to and realizes that he finished the rep. Yeah, of course I did. Let's go Jags.

What if the Jags are terrible? You think Urban quits? No. After one year, you think? Yeah, fuck this, dude. Fire Urban. I can see it. I believe it was ESPN did like a simulation where they simulate every game 20,000 times

or whatever they had the Jaguars making the playoffs this year. No. Yeah. Yeah. In the AFC South. Mm-hmm. With Julio Jones adding to the Tennessee Titans. Carl Wentz coming out of everything he's got here for the Indianapolis Colts.

The AFC South standings when it comes to odds, the Titans are minus 110 Colts plus 140 Jags plus 600. And then Tyrod Taylor, Jack Easterby, and the Texans plus 2,300. The AFC South, two top heavy teams in there. If Urban Meyer goes to the playoffs, they might sign him to a 10-year extension down there. Here's a billion dollars. Good for Urban. You got any news coming out of that camp from the Italian Stallion Schlegel?

Are they happy and pumped with where they're at as a team right now? I mean, what do you think? Do you think they're happy and pumped with where they are? I mean, it'll be a big test week one to see. Are they playing Houston? Yeah. Yeah, they got Houston. There's some big games this weekend.

Let's go ahead and run around the horn here. Obviously, Tampa-Dallas is on Thursday. Jacksonville-Houston, ain't nobody watching. You have a lot of TVs, but we will cover it afterwards. Cardinals-Titans is a fucking showcase matchup. Seahawks-Colts, also a great start. Steelers-Bills, there's a game that we're going to have to talk about. And then obviously, Browns and Chiefs should be amazing. And then Ravens-Raiders is on Monday night, I believe it

is. That's a game we'll be interested just to see and watch the electricity that is Lamar Jackson playing football. But you're talking Packers, Saints over there. I mean, there's a lot of showcase matchups this weekend, A.J. Hawk. I love it. There's so many great games that you want to see. Now, the second, there's the two Monday night games, correct? No, I think it's just one this year. Yeah, just one.

Because wouldn't Herbie have done the second one? Didn't he do the second one last year? Yeah, Herbie and Fowler, by the way, back on their A game for that masterpiece Georgia Clemson. They probably didn't want to overshadow the actual Monday night football crew again with the Herbie and Fowler, by the way, back on their A game for that masterpiece Georgia Clemson. They probably didn't want to overshadow the actual Monday Night Football crew again with the Herbie. Are you talking about the Mannings? No, no, no, no, no. Because of the fact that 10 weeks out of the year that is going to happen with the Mannings if they do it on the first week.

And there'll be no hosts. It's just those two, right? Right. Carrying the flow. And they're doing that 10 games. Is it the first game, one of them? No. Not the first game, no. Also, they're doing that 10 games? Is it the first game, one of them? No. Not the first game, no.

Also, they're doing a test run here. They're doing Omaha Productions is doing a test run. They'll watch the film on it. They'll run it back. They'll see what's good, what isn't good. The Mannings aren't going to fucking half-ass this. They're not going to put 10 productions out there that aren't good. They're going to probably practice a couple times and see how it goes.

Of course they do. Can't wait. Yeah. I mean, or they just didn't want to commit to every single weekend. I – maybe. But I honestly believe that them not doing the first week or are they doing any of the first two weeks? I'm not sure if they're doing next week.

They got to be doing a rehearsal run. For sure. They're not going to let that thing out unless they feel as if it's good enough. Remember Romo did that? When Romo was I think he was doing like preseason games. They showed him up in the booth doing like basically I think they filmed it, did everything just didn't put it on the air before he ever

did his first regular season game. You think those preseason games, he was just like, ah shotgun, alright, dice right there. Got it. And CBS was like, fucking let's get him. Get him in now. Jim Nance, just ask him what's going to happen on the next play, and then just let him go and do his thing. Hey, will Drew Brees be on Notre Dame games now when they're on NBC?

I hope not. I think he's doing Football Night in America. What's that all about? Why is that? Did you see his points bet commercial? No. Well, watch that, and then tell me if you're excited to watch Drew Brees on TV this year. What happened?

This is an announcement. He's probably incredible acting, if I had to guess. Nah, he's a robot. No way. But him calling games may be different. Well, I hope so. Ty has a personal vendetta against him. Yeah, one elbow to the back of the head to meet Cuban Zeke, and all of a sudden this guy's dead to him forever.

But also, can we talk about, let's not just dump money into these sports book commercials like everybody did when fantasy football came in. And the NFL came out and said there's only a certain amount of commercials allowed that are sports books. It might be 10 or something. It seems like every single commercial is a sports book commercial. And I might be different. Normally, throughout my life, I've realized that if I feel a certain way, normally a lot of people feel the way. I'm just a basic son of a bitch, okay?

If I like something, normally a lot of people do. If I don't like something, normally a lot of people don't. I don't think anybody's ever watched one of those commercials sandwiched in between four other commercials and said, You know what? I want to fucking bet with that place. Nope. I don't think that has ever happened. I honestly don't. And that has to be so much money. money so so much money to get those spots and i appreciate and respect it but

i think it's doing sports book and sports gambling a disservice because i think a lot of people are sick of seeing it when it's like yo why are we wasting our money in this particular fashion yeah if commercials come on you're either changing the channel or you're going on your phone you're not fucking sitting there like oh i wonder what commercial is coming next i can't wait to see hey jamie fox is one of the coolest dudes of all time yeah okay one of the coolest humans most talented humans of all time he pops up on the screen i go fuck jamie all right this is gonna make me get my phone out download an app and bet because jb smooth just told me something more james harrison justared somebody. Like, I don't feel like that is just a... Now, granted, you know,

probably not supposed to say that that's terrible marketing, especially in the world that we're in, I guess, because we are technically a show and we're a fan, though. Ah, fuck it. I just think it's a waste. I think those stage robotic commercials aren't good. I don't think that's a good use of your money. I just feel like ain't nobody going over in there and doing it.

Yeah, you're just saying you can allocate those resources elsewhere. Make the app better. Bingo. Make the app better. Make everything better. Advertise other places that are cheaper that may, you know, you got to try everything else you can online and social media. Do it through there.

You pay so much money to be in a commercial. I think as far as like i don't sit around and watch commercials i just i don't know do bigger partnerships with daily shows yeah do do larger gross grossly large partnerships it helps more just i had to type up a synopsis by the way of what i thought the future could look like this weekend you know and i these fingertips were rolling dude we're talking three four scroller of some of my best work okay oh i'm talking some of my best oh this was this uh a note section production yeah but i typed it so i don't normally use the laptop now i have a laptop because we had to get one in arizona i've never really had a laptop before we have this one that sits here i don't know how to use it really.

So I have a laptop. So I thought it was really cool for me to sit down and type. Normally, I just go right to my phone into my notes section. It's much different whenever you're actually, you know what I mean, you're doing the whole thing. I felt real good. We're in a good spot, boys. I'd run through a lot of numbers and stuff.

We're in a really good spot. We're in a hilariously good spot. Love that. Hilarious, but straight face because everybody else is speaking about these numbers in a fashion that I have to learn how to speak about it and that's like you guys are really winning here if you think about this yeah and you can't put a price on building can't a partnership with somebody who's great at what they do that's right and it's an honor for us obviously and then right before that though i

put a price on what it probably would so i believe that is a little hypocritical there but i was fucking feeling it and vibing in that whole thing and that's the world we live in i guess but i'm sick of seeing all these commercials everybody's gonna be just so fucking it's gonna be so redundant it's gonna get to the point unless you're are they creating 15 commercials because they're all the same ones too so it's like come on come on come on come on what are we doing it's hard to figure out which company this one's for too like you don't know exactly what okay like what is this this uh website or that site like that's the thing too i feel yeah i don't know i don't know how the only commercials i feel like that work are ones on kid channels designed for kids so like if my kids are watching a tv show all they do is the all the

commercials my kids want every single toy i'm like yeah, yeah, I do, too. That Nerf gun looks sweet. Like, I see how that works. But other than that, I don't know. Yeah, I used those QVC stuff that used to get me every time, you know, especially as an adult, not just a kid. But I don't know. I just think you're supposed to present your company for what it is in that time, you know. And if your company is a cool, cool fun incredible what they do company like fandle for instance i'm i have no say in any other creative or whatever i think they should be

pitching a vibe that fandle is more so than hey we have all the bets or whatever it's like everybody has the same fucking commercial right it's like well that's the problem is none of these companies differentiate themselves at all and even down to like what their new customer offer is it's like yeah all our shit's getting jacked right it's just plug and play with all these different ones and it's like oh okay it's all this shit's the same things i created aj from this brain right here being used by other things other places it's like oh and there's really no reason not to do that actually now. Now that I think about it, everybody's trying to chase everybody else with the same shit. It's just like, what app's the best, okay? And who, you know what I mean?

That's the thing. That's where I think all the money should be going. That's why FanDuel crushes, by the way. The app is so fucking good. It's like, this is what we should be focused on. That's lightning fast. This is what we should be focusing on. Yeah.

The updates have been fucking. That's not just blowing smoke. Because we did to have some trouble with like the location stuff. And now it's like you log in. Boom. Verifies it right away. So you don't have to worry like I need to get this in now before the odds change. And that's what they should be pushing. Right.

That's what they should be pushing at this point. Like, hey, this is literally the best gambling app there is. It seems to know what you want to bet on, too. They have the set ones, and it's like, oh, they know exactly why I came here. They know exactly why I'm here. Shout out to them. Yes, I would like to live bet Florida State yet again. I'm not going to turn my back after a couple rocky starts.

This guy hedged his bet on both teams last night publicly. Publicly, this guy, our best gambler, just out here betting on both teams. He lost both of them. Listen, if Florida State's quarterback doesn't lose his helmet, McKenzie Milton doesn't come in, Notre Dame covers that game. Hey, they didn't, though,

so they better keep their fucking heads on a swivel around Brian Kelly. I lost the juice last night. Hey, you know John McKay? Yeah. No, you don't. You're like the rest of the internet that was attacking me. For not being a football historian, Doug Gottlieb told me.

Pat's not a football historian. I don't know if that was a shot or a compliment. I don't know, honestly. That's apparent. I think that's fair to say that you're not a football historian. But I am appreciative that I learned who the fucking historians were last night. You know what I mean? Like, hey, and I said this in the first hour, and I truly mean it.

All the people that attacked me for not knowing that that was a reference to a John McKay joke in the 70s. I'm going to go to them whenever I need a fucking bumfuck piece of information. Right. That's what I'm going to do. How many passing yards did Y.A. Tittle have in 1963? Bingo. I'm going to these people. Paul Papps, Dan Patrick

Show. Friend of mine. I like Paul Papps. This morning, okay, after I got a litany of people telling me this is John McKay. It's like, okay, I'm sorry I didn't know that. Okay, he didn't deliver it the same way McKay did. He didn't deliver it the same way McKay did, but I understand I should have known. And I, by the

way, I just said this dude's wild. I didn't say anything else like that. Paul Paps actually sent me a full link this morning and said, it's a throwback clip or whatever. I'm like, thanks, Paul. Fuck off, Paul. And I love Paul. Do they feel like, are they defending Brian Kelly?

Is that what they feel like they're doing? Oh, yeah. But not just Brian Kelly, but also society as a whole got lumped in there. All of a sudden, politics. I mean, it became like a full. Of course it did, by the way. Of course it did. But I just don't think your head coach should be bobbling an execution joke.

Especially with his chapter. All right, all right, all right. Just saying. I do have an update. I did some research to see what games the Mannings were calling. They will call the first three weeks of the season, and then the next seven will be decided. Okay, so they aren't doing anything I just said.

All right. Wait, so why haven't we heard about this yet? Well, we have probably. You just didn't, and I didn't either, and we were the ones having the conversation. I thought it was the middle 10. Oh, yeah, because middle eight. Exactly.

You know what I mean? Wait, so they do the first. You know what I mean? It's important. Wait, so they do the first three, and then they decide the next seven they do? The Mega Castle debut the first three weeks of the 2021 season, including the September 13th Monday Night Football Open between the Ravens and the Vikings, and the remaining seven will be announced. Hey, Peyton, you want to do this anymore? Fuck no.

Imagine them hating it the first three weeks. I hope not. We'll get this later in the season Yeah, later in the season And then it'll just Forget Forget about it Also allows them to choose

If there's a dog shit game on the schedule Fuck this Can't thank you enough For listening to our absolute nonsense On a daily basis We believe Aaron Rodgers Tuesday begins tomorrow But there is a lot of questions So maybe, maybe not Be a friend, tell a friend if you like this if not
