Starting point is 00:00:00 Hello beautiful people, it is Feel Good Friday, June 3rd, 2022, and this sports show, with a little extra toxicity to it, starts now. Yeah! I would normally, you know, give a nice prelude to what the show's gonna be here for probably a minute to two, maybe three. Sure. probably a minute to two, maybe three. Sure. Just as people, you know, get realized that we're live and kind of stroll in, I'm normally just yelling nonsense
Starting point is 00:00:28 about what we're potentially going to talk about. Some things never get talked about again, by the way, after that. And that's because this show is obviously incredibly scripted and blocked. And everything that needs to be talked about gets talked about as soon as it needs to be talked about. That's right.
Starting point is 00:00:43 That's why this show has done so well and won numerous awards. Hell yeah. Hashtag awards. But today, there's no reason to do that. Uh-uh. No, because today, and we're a minute and a half, two minutes already into this thing. Today is a day that has never happened before in this program's history. Whoa.
Starting point is 00:01:02 That's right. And although it is up to something season, we do not know we were up to this until just a couple days ago. And this is a monumental, paramount occasion. Because all the talks at the tables here at Ty Schmidt, at Boston Corner, great to see you, Connor. Congratulations on the Celtics in the big fourth quarter. Thank you so much, Pat.
Starting point is 00:01:24 Great to see you, too. 1-0 in the finals. Never a doubt. No, never. Not-0 in the finals. Never a doubt. No, never. Not even when we were down. Never a doubt. I was sending you a lot of texts when we were down because we were betting heavily on the Celtics. Because also, shout out to one half of the Hammer, Dan Cowboys.
Starting point is 00:01:35 Gumpy, who's up in Canada, said he rides with the Celtics. He said, also, give me the four. I'm not greedy. Although, the record now, I believe, is 43-2-1 for whoever wins also covers in the NBA playoffs. Unbelievable. So whoever you think is going to win, you bet regardless. You just bet the money line. If you're getting points, just take the money line.
Starting point is 00:01:52 It's going to work out. So congrats. You did never doubt him because early I was sending a lot of shots when there was air balls popping off. Steph Curry seemed to be shooting into a bigger bucket. Then the second quarter happened. He scored no points. Third quarter happened. Then all of a sudden, when the fourth quarter, lights came on. Holy shit, the boys couldn't miss. Let the second quarter happened. He scored no points. Third quarter happened. Then all of a sudden in the fourth quarter,
Starting point is 00:02:05 lights came on. Holy shit, the boys couldn't miss. Let's go Boston. Fucking pumped about it, Pat. I am juiced right now. We're going to win the whole thing. It's sweet.
Starting point is 00:02:13 Congrats to you. Thank you. Parades of Boston again. Steph. The other half of the Hammer Donut Cowboys. Tone Diggs is here.
Starting point is 00:02:22 Tone, how you doing, pal? Good, how are you? We don't want that. Tone and Bill bought the office donuts today. Wow. On National Donut Day. Nice. You like yours?
Starting point is 00:02:31 Well, that's the thing. I hope everybody else had a great National Donut Day. I hope everybody had a great National Donut Day. The only donuts that Ty and I eat were the only one that didn't show up on the donut charcuterie board. Oh, Zachary J., JJ Watt, huh? Kind of similar, yeah. Yeah. Boo. That's exactly what happened.
Starting point is 00:02:52 Wait, you guys ordered the pink ones too? No, no. We have, by the way, the pink one, the strawberry one's very good. And although I called Zach Ertz potentially, allegedly I'm being accused of calling Zach Ertz yesterday an uncultured swine because he didn't know about the strawberry frosted donuts. I feel like that was a little bit harsh because he did buy one of them.
Starting point is 00:03:09 He probably tried it and said, damn, actually very good donut. I'm not talking about that donut, though, because there is a donut that has captured the hearts of me and Ty Schmitt. That's right. We split one every single day for like two weeks because luckiest golfer on earth was sending us donuts from this one particular place and we appreciate him doing that, by the way. Shout out to you sending donuts to the office.
Starting point is 00:03:29 It was not something we necessarily wanted, but we did need it on certain days. That's right. There's this fucking cinnamon, apple-filled donut piece of heaven.
Starting point is 00:03:40 Yeah. It's the only one that didn't show up in a box today. So me and Ty had a terrible National Donut Day. Hope everybody else Ty had a terrible National Donut Day. Hope everybody else has had a great National Donut Day.
Starting point is 00:03:47 Nick, it looks like you're having National Donut Day. Yeah, it was nice of Tony to do that for everybody, including Ty after what Ty said about him last week. Yeah. What was that? I agree. No, we've already put this to bed. Oh, that's what Colin said.
Starting point is 00:03:59 Exactly. Thank you. Anyway, fuck all that. We're not doing this. This is not what we're here for. This is not what today is about. People voted, though. Anyways, happy National Donut Day to everybody. I don't have any because all that. We're not doing this. This is not what we're here for. This is not what today's about. People voted, though. Anyways, happy National Donut Day to everybody.
Starting point is 00:04:07 I don't have any because of that. Except me and Todd. Tony, why didn't you get their donut? Huh? You bought them. Why didn't you get their donut? Because those two were the ringleaders of what happened last week. Boom!
Starting point is 00:04:19 Nuclear bomb! Ten minutes in! Yes! Yes! I don't know how I got thrown in this. Yeah, what is this about? I don't know how I got thrown in this I don't know how I got thrown in this It's unbelievable Shut up

I'm not a commie. I need to say that to the people at least so they know. Wait till Mike Gallagher hears this. Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:05:28 He's going to be heartbroken. Look, the Zambellis probably also share the same sentiment because without the people who invented the fireworks then they would have never been able to revolutionize
Starting point is 00:05:37 them in Pittsburgh. All right, cool. We'll agree to disagree and agree somewhere along the line. Today's a big day not because he's a commie. I'm not a commie. Okay? Hey, that's... I he's a commie. I'm not a commie. I am not a commie.
Starting point is 00:05:48 That's exactly what a commie would say. Jesus Christ. That is not why today's a big day. Today's a big day because normally we only get two hours of the toxicity really at full force on this particular show. Normally it's coming from an attic in Ohio.
Starting point is 00:06:04 Today we get it for two hours, 51 minutes, live in person, ladies and gentlemen, AJ Hart! AJ Hart! AJ Hart! AJ Hart! AJ Hart! Live in studio!
Starting point is 00:06:18 Let's go! Is this on? Am I good? Am I on? Yeah, you sound great. Oh, man. Also, Diggs, you look great, too, by the way. I don't know who wins in the thing of you guys, the fat off, but Diggs looks great in person.
Starting point is 00:06:28 Thank you. I agree. I mean, I think we all just settled who won, and it was me because you guys are bad people, clearly. Listen, don't have to go backwards. That's what AJ loves doing there. You know, we're trying to move past with you being in studio, by the way. How's the headset? Good.
Starting point is 00:06:43 Yeah, I'm just trying to hear. I'm good to go. It's great because he- You look amazing, AJ. You do. Wow. This is great. How's the headset? Good. Yeah, I'm just trying to hear. I'm good to go. It's great because he... You look amazing, H.K. Wow. This is great. It's been a while since I've been here. I was in the bathroom peeing with Herbie,
Starting point is 00:06:51 and I said, man, do they make you clean this bathroom? And he said, no, it's always... It's been like this since I've been here, so you guys are doing something right. Well, we had to say, hey, boys, good work. It's kind of weird you shared the toilet while peeing with Herbie, but still. There's like five of them.
Starting point is 00:07:04 It's a public toilet, right? Well, there's two different toilets. All right. Bathrooms. Nonetheless, Gracie, you didn't piss on the floor like the last, like, what was that, two times ago? Yeah. No, all good.
Starting point is 00:07:14 Everything's been good, man. I appreciate it. Appreciate you having me here. I drove this morning, didn't fall asleep. Honestly, it felt really good, this whole drive here. And then Herbie came and picked me up because I dropped a rental car at the airport, whole situation. So thanks for Herbie.
Starting point is 00:07:24 He was actually waiting right there at the curb. Hey, that a boy, Herbie. Hey, Herbie. Herbie came and picked me up because I dropped a rental car at the airport. Whole situation. So thanks for Herbie. He was actually waiting right there at the curb. Hey, that a boy, Herbie. Hey, Herbie. Herbie might not be around that much longer, but that's neither here nor there. Herbie's What happened? Herbie's great. I'm joking. He wants to pick up you in fantastic
Starting point is 00:07:40 fashion. He's got a good little Chevy too that drove in there. We will fly back to Columbus afterwards. You and me. Yes. Smackdown tonight, right? Yeah. Are you coming to that? I actually am going to go straight to a baseball game that's very close to the airport, and I hope we're flying into that. I left my car. I hope
Starting point is 00:07:56 it's the right airport, right? Yeah, the last couple of days. You tell me, man. Good luck. I'm not 100% sure. I hope so. If not, my car's at a hotel near an airport. Okay, we'll get you there. No problem at all. Thank you for coming out here. Let's dive right into it.
Starting point is 00:08:07 Ohio State, big conversation piece right now, AJ Hawk. Why? Ryan, well, great question. I love what you're doing here. Ryan Day has come out, and he just basically said, here's the deal with the NIL deals. You're going to need $2 million for a good quarterback. All right?
Starting point is 00:08:22 You're going to need $1 million for a good edge rusher. You're going to need about1 million for a good edge rusher. You're going to need about another million for a top tackle, let alone if we get some corners going to come around, it's $500,000, $750,000. Let's just get them to your school. This is via at jbook37, I believe. Lives in Arizona. Covers the Buckeyes, though.
Starting point is 00:08:38 No blue checkmark. A lot of followers. Seem like a lot of Ohioans do interact with said Mr. Book 37 here. Anyways, then he had a follow-up and said it's going to basically take $13 million to keep this team that they currently have in place. Ryan Day has put the bat signal out to fans and boosters per Cleveland.com. Day speaking to 100 local business said that the Buckeyes will need about $13 million per year
Starting point is 00:09:04 in NIL funds just to keep the current players on the roster intact. Ohio State is officially in the game, says JBook37, who's followed along with the Buckeyes from afar there. So $13 million just to keep this team together. That price is only going to go up just like with everything else in the world as it becomes a more sophisticated system. Maybe the water will find its level.
Starting point is 00:09:24 Maybe it'll go down. But I feel like like it never does normally things just only go up why are you not giving ryan day 13 million dollars right now to keep that team together do you are you is that what's going to take like what okay so what does that mean though when you want to raise 13 million is that what are these collectives i'm like a serious question you know they put together these nil collectives or whatever are those local businesses that come together? Is that the school that gathers them? What is it? I don't know if it's local businesses or just money from the boosters.
Starting point is 00:09:53 But then who controls that money? Well, whoever's the head, right, would be the one that's controlling it. And then that person can go to the school and say, hey, can you help this recruit, this high school kid with this money? I'm not a hunter. I'm just a try. I assume you go to the coach, though, and say, hey, this is what we have. You don't have to go directly to the school. I assume the coach will be directly there.
Starting point is 00:10:07 He's the head collector. Yeah, because he's the one recruiting, right? I mean, this is what we're doing now, because Saban put the bat signal out to his guys, right? When he killed Jimbo to get the money. Jimbo, cat, though, at least two lives, he came back next morning and said, excuse me. Because Saban was talking in front of businesses, too.
Starting point is 00:10:23 This is the season, right? This is fundraising season, it sounds like. Which has always been happening. Yeah. These types of things have always been happening. But now it's here. Now he can openly say, hey, if you guys pony up, we can win a lot of football games around here. As somebody that doesn't pay close enough attention to college football, obviously. Me.
Starting point is 00:10:39 These types of things have been happening, I assume. Like boosters? Like this sit-down panel in front of all the money from your school. They do panels in front of these people. This has probably been happening at every big school for a long time, this particular meeting. But these conferences have changed the tune now. Now it's like, hey, this is what we're –
Starting point is 00:10:59 it's like a strategy meeting as opposed to a hello meeting. Yeah. Right? Is that what's going on? Boosters have run college sports since the dawn of time i'm guessing like boosters these powerful boosters they have so much control so much power i've i've listened to boosters tell me that they were part of coaching searches like they went with the on the planes right on their planes actually it's normally on their planes
Starting point is 00:11:18 exactly yeah because you donate hours like you know that's part of your donation hey oh i donated 25 hours this year to the athletic department of my jet. I was like, these guys are telling me they're texting the head coaches after games. Hey, man, I think you should play Billy a little bit more in the third quarter. Stuff like that. That opened my eyes. I was like, geez, okay. I had no clue any of this was
Starting point is 00:11:37 really... I didn't know you were that in-depth, I guess. How much did old buddy pay at Pitt to become the head coach and title? $20 million. Chris Bickle. Chris Bickle. Chris Bickle. Class of 92. Sorry.
Starting point is 00:11:48 97. 97. Jesus. Class of 92. Dog shit. That's right. Class of 97. 98.
Starting point is 00:11:56 Can't even fucking think about touching. No. They changed the game. That's why he wanted 97 in there. This class, what we did. What if they did? What if the University of Pittsburgh in class of 97 created some fucking life-altering, changing thing,
Starting point is 00:12:10 and that's why he needed 97 on that fucking thing? Why do you think he insisted class of 97 on the end of that? Just alumni are not good enough. He wanted his class. Something had to have happened with that. I think that's like a next-level proud alumni move because you care when you're talking to these other proud... Hey, you're class of 67.
Starting point is 00:12:29 I was class of 97. Oh, so this is like super high level. We love highest GPA ever, maybe. Anyways, that $20 million that he was able to put to the... You would assume he's making some other decisions is what you are alluding to, it sounds like. Yeah, I mean, I don't know how what you are alluding to. It sounds like. Yeah. I mean, I don't know how much you have to give to become like a donor like that or somebody that's that important to her. A head coach will take your text and respond to you after a big loss,
Starting point is 00:12:52 but it's not illegal. Like that's not illegal, right? Like you, you donate money. They put your name on a building. Not all. They can use that money however they want.
Starting point is 00:13:00 Yeah. There's always been ways to, you know, but I guess before work the system before it was used to hey you can take our money and build these facilities build all this awesome stuff to show recruits now you can take this money and directly hand it to the recruits sounds like now yeah we don't even have to fake act like we're not making money we don't even have to fake act now we need double the money though because we need to build all these
Starting point is 00:13:20 facilities and continue to build them and we need to pay these kids the players need money and we need money let's not take away from what build them, and we need to pay these kids. Hey, the players need the money, and we need the money. Let's not take away from what we've been fucking making, though. All right? These kids are going to need their money. They're going to need $13,000, okay? That's what – let alone – hey. I was supposed to get two new jet skis.
Starting point is 00:13:36 Right? Two new jet skis out on my lake here in Columbus, Ohio. Ryan Day was saying, let's not fucking stop that particular avenue of cash. It's interesting. What? Bobby Carpenter joining us here in a couple minutes, and he's still working out with the players that are making more money than he is now. Yeah. That would be funny to go back there.
Starting point is 00:13:53 We'll ask him, hey, Bob, has your relationship changed with these guys since they started getting paid? Have you noticed a difference in them? More than you, too. Oh, yeah. We've got a lot to talk about. Okay, let's get to a break. Let's reset this entire thing. Because we got a full convo with General Let's get to a break. Let's reset this entire thing.
Starting point is 00:14:06 We got a full convo with General Bob Carpenter live at the memorial and I believe he's going to be 100% sober? I'm sure. He'll let you know. You said that lunch one time at 11 o'clock he ordered an old-fashioned. Wasn't that what he used to do? He got off the air at 9 o'clock this morning and I think started...
Starting point is 00:14:21 I was going to say, it's the weekend. It's the weekend. It was the big weekend. It was pound town. It's a big weekend back there, believe me. This isn't Ohio State Buckeye football home game weekend, but it is the memorial. Just as big. A lot of house parties. Glantz Smackdown.
Starting point is 00:14:36 Do you rate your house? I bet you'll have some golfers there tonight. Well, hopefully it's not any of the fucking loser ones. John Robb shows up. Who's that? Who are the loser ones? Well, I won't not any of the fucking loser ones. Yeah, exactly. John, can you name them for me? Who's that? Who are the loser ones? Well, I won't.
Starting point is 00:14:47 This is who I hope I see. What if I listed off 50? Yeah. Omitted three. And it would have been. Anyways, we're back in four minutes with General Bob Carpenter. Listen, if Justin Thomas and the boys are at the SmackDown tonight. Come through.
Starting point is 00:15:03 Come on, boys. Give me a good show. Come on, boys. You were talking about how pumped you were for the show tonight. Come through. Come on, boys. Give me a good show. Come on, boys. You were talking about how pumped you were for the show tonight because it's a fucking great one. I hope so, yeah. I mean, we're in the middle of a lot of stuff. Hell in a Cell two days from now.
Starting point is 00:15:13 Yeah, here we go. Here we go. Who's the headliner tonight? Why? Why? Why? Who's the head? AJ Hawk, maybe.
Starting point is 00:15:19 Isn't it? You kayfaving me right now? You working me right now? Is Stone Cold coming back? Why? Why? If Bob Backlund's there, I will leave the baseball game to come So text me actually
Starting point is 00:15:29 If you see him backstage Does Bob Backlund live in Ohio? I hope Probably Do you know? I have no clue Is Bob Backlund Yeah he's still alive
Starting point is 00:15:37 He's doing great He was at a show Is what I'm saying He's still I know he's like He's a nutrition freak Yeah somebody It was right before
Starting point is 00:15:44 I was about to get introduced, before the show goes on TV, we have to make our way to the thing. Somebody was on their way back, and I was kind of eavesdropping, I guess. It kind of fucked up. You saw him knee-walking backstage? No, no, no. No, but somebody said that they had just shook hands with him, and he was just as firm. They said he bought the person, basically.
Starting point is 00:16:05 Yeah, you got to go, Bob. He lives in Connecticut, I guess. Yeah, 72 years old. Still got it, by the way. We need to get this guy a match. Can you get him a match? I can't do anything. We'll get a program going.
Starting point is 00:16:14 With you? No, no, no. We'll get Bob a program. Who's we? Me and you. I figured you'd have enough for me. Just now, a man who needs to maybe get together with the Hawker here and round up some funds.
Starting point is 00:16:31 Yeah. Because the Ohio State team that we knew it as of last year, if they don't get $13 million, they're going to be in Conference USA. Uh-oh. Heard that yesterday from Ryan Day while he's addressing 100 businesses. A.J. Hawks just had a great face there thinking about Ohio State maybe going down. General Bob Carpenter. Yes, General!
Starting point is 00:16:53 Yes, dude! Top Gun Maverick, how you doing? I'm doing great, Patrick. Man, thanks for having me on. You and A.J. are live from the Memorial Tournament in your field. This is the stomping grounds of A.J. Hawk. So his wife is a native of Dublin. Pat, we come here when we were young, didn't know anything better.
Starting point is 00:17:11 We're running around this tournament. My man Schlegel is ripping off the wings off these cicadas like a giant locust, eating them out in the middle of a parking lot at these house parties. You've got A.J. grabbing a big bottle of three olive vodka like the showpiece that they tell him hey sir don't open that up he tells them yeah i'm good five minutes later he's trying to chug that thing down yeah that's awesome it's all there so this is like this is nostalgia for you guys living in the glory days. AJ, why are you not there? Well, I am here. Hey, great to have you.
Starting point is 00:17:48 Thank you. I might go there this weekend, take a couple of my kids maybe. House parties, what does that mean? Just people that live on the course? Like Bob, are you at a party, like at a house right now, or is that one of the tents? So the house parties were a little too wild. I wanted to make sure you guys could hear me.
Starting point is 00:18:03 I got posted up at one of the pavilions. I'm on the 17th green right here. So I'm in a perfect spot to be able to do this. We got yelled at yesterday for talking while the guys are putting this thing's about to get a little loud and rowdy. You guys are from the Midwest. You understand this is like the first beautiful weekend we've had. And so when that's the case,
Starting point is 00:18:22 man, the fangs come out, the zombies start walking around and this thing's about to get lit okay so the house parties do people own these houses they rent them out and then corporations buy them up and then they host the parties throughout the day that are on the course yeah that's basically what happens so you own a house say i'm gonna rent it out someone's gonna pay me 50 grand for the week they're gonna put that take your furniture out they wrap that thing in
Starting point is 00:18:45 shrink wrap to keep the bodily fluids and all the liquids off the walls. It freaking gets wild and crazy. AJ's over there laughing because he knows exactly the things that we've seen and the things that we've done in some of these houses. So what, you guys are invited because you guys are Buckeyes? Because you're heroes and locals? You're in every single
Starting point is 00:19:01 party and every single house over there? Here's the thing, Pat. Going to Ohio State may have been the greatest decision I'd ever made because you don't realize you start to play a little bit of football here. And it's the, it's the greatest thing in the world. And then you're friends with this guy who everybody loves, but the best part is like, AJ doesn't talk.
Starting point is 00:19:20 And so I just be standing there with them. They're talking to us. AJ just looks at them. And then I would kind of fill the voids in conversation. What a great wingman. That's amazing. Let's talk about Ohio State real quick. And I know AJ will probably have some takes on it as well.
Starting point is 00:19:38 But Ryan Day said last night that you need to walk house to house over there with all that money. All the people that are renting $50,000 houses to have parties in columbus and dublin ohio they need to they need to send that money elsewhere and that's to the fucking buckeyes because they need 13 million bobby is allegedly what they need uh do you like that ryan day did what he did and is that just some call to action for you and aj and roosters and everybody to fork up this cash so we can continue to win. Yeah, I think that's table stakes, man. You got to decide what you want to be in this world. And do you want to be great? Do you want to be elite? Everyone complains if you don't beat Bama, if you don't beat Clemson, you're not beating the Georgians. If you can't get that done, then you know what? You're not going to be successful. So Ryan just laying it out there,
Starting point is 00:20:22 guys. Hey, this isn't me saying this isn't me putting this number together. This is when people are asking, hey, what can you do for us? And I believe this, like Ryan's a great coach. And I think guys ultimately want to play for him, but you got to be in the game. And everybody knows this. There's guys in the league and the NFL where, you know what, you might take a little bit less cash to ultimately stay someplace you like, but it has to be in the ballpark. You got to get close. And I think that's Ryan Day just letting everybody know, saying, hey, this is where we're at.
Starting point is 00:20:52 Throw some cash out. It's going to take $13 million. It's going to take $13 million per year. So let's get ready to start greasing those checks. I've never looked better there, by the way. Go ahead. But, Bob, what does that mean, greasing those checks? So should local businesses just send their money in?
Starting point is 00:21:07 Who do they talk to? Do you have to say, like, this is specifically for the NIL stuff? Will you say the example you mentioned earlier or no? Oh, yeah, Bob, I think Reichert, he went on Twitter and he quote tweeted something about when Ryan Day said that. And he said, like, well, the school isn't reaching out to us. We're the ones who are trying to make these deals happen. Who is Reichert? Reichert, Bob, can you explain Reichert, the car dealership, right?
Starting point is 00:21:27 So that would be Rick Reichert, his dad, his family. They've got one of, I think, the world's largest car dealer. Bob's got a relationship with him, actually. Of course. I might have messed something up. That's because you don't fucking talk. That's why he's got the relationship. No, I'm saying I don't want to mess anything up for you, Bob.
Starting point is 00:21:41 I think Bob gets a car from him right now. My bad. No, that's a compliment for him, I think. Oh, good. Yeah, so he's trying to help. How does he help? So you're writing these checks in. There's a collective called Cohesion,
Starting point is 00:21:53 and that's where this money needs to go so they can get this stuff out. Or I guess you could do individual deals. You know, if you're nationwide, let's boot Peyton Manning out of there and get C.J. Stroud walking around and going to Fansville or Peytonville or wherever the heck it is. Well, C.J.ville probably not going to do as good as Peytonville right now, but maybe in the future. Whenever he says need $13 million per year,
Starting point is 00:22:17 is that because current players are getting poached? Do you think Ohio State has a chance to end up being in Conference USA if they don't get this money, Bob? Conference USA is a bit of a stretch. I think the Big Ten has kind of always been behind the times a little bit with this.
Starting point is 00:22:36 SEC's probably always kind of lived in this world a little bit more. He's just kind of alerting everybody. If you want to compete with these teams, if not, we're going to have Bama. They're going to be knocking on our door. Dabo, Sweeney, Clemson, George, all these schools are going to be knocking. You just saw what happened with Addison at Pittsburgh.
Starting point is 00:22:52 I hopped in the portal. I went to USC, got a couple million dollars. If that's what you want to see happen with your elite players, if you can't afford to keep them there, that will ultimately be the case. But I do not think that it will be the Ohio State playing with the thundering herd of Marshall in Conference USA. Okay, that's great analysis. We appreciate that. The Memorial, have you had any drinks or cocktails today yet, Bob?
Starting point is 00:23:12 You sound amazing. This might be prime Bob right now. Oh, Coach, listen. I started off at about 6 this morning doing my local show. I had a couple beverages out there. AJ knows how I like to roll. This is really it. This is my one day.
Starting point is 00:23:26 The wife's coming out here to meet me. She's texting me, where are you at? I'm like, hey, I got to deal with Pat and AJ, man. I'm putting my life on hold to help you guys. Just like I helped you go see Top Gun and convince you that it was the leaked movie that it was, I wanted to make sure I dedicated some time for the PMS. Well, we appreciate the hell out of that.
Starting point is 00:23:46 And if you've been drinking since 6 a.m., you sound amazing six and a half hours in. I want to let you know that. That's because you're a fucking warrior, pal. Just like Pete Maverick Mitchell. Hell yeah! Bob, I've told the story on this show after watching it, and I don't know if you know this, we got a
Starting point is 00:24:01 theater at 8.30 a.m. the other day and watched it on IMAX. Big indiana actual biggest screen in indiana so it's like we're in there never seen a top gun before would not have done that if you didn't come unannounced into my dms on an instagram story about something vastly i think it was golf i think we're golf i was golfing with gumpy you come in in, need you to see Top Gun. It is a leader, whatever. It's like you were looking at that screen, me and Gump, and your first thought was, fuck it, he needs to see this.
Starting point is 00:24:33 You got to tell him. And I appreciate you doing that. You're 100% right. I fucking loved it, Bob. Loved it. Listen, man, I'm here to help you guys. I'm always available. I'm always willing to help.
Starting point is 00:24:43 But I'm going to tell you this. You talk about me starting to drink at 6, doing my local show, rolling, getting the transfusions going, transitioning to a little Patron and soda. But it's not the plane. It's not the plane, Pat. It's the pilot. Always remember that. You know that to be true.
Starting point is 00:24:59 The boys have a couple questions. Can we delay your time with your wife here for another moment or so? Let's do it. Atta baby, Bob. Go ahead, Ty. Bob, so they're just like a bunch of big-time celebrities wandering around the grandstands at this event, or are you kind of the toast of the town down there?
Starting point is 00:25:15 I mean, I guess it depends on what you call a celebrity. I would never define myself as the toast of the town. I'm just trying to get in where I fit in. If, you know what, playing football at Ohio State greases up a couple pavilion passes here or there, I'm happy to slide in under the radar, scavenge up some drinks, and have a good time.
Starting point is 00:25:31 Are you still working out with the guys that are going to be paid more money than you are being paid currently right now? Is that still happening? When are you back in the gym? It's been a couple weeks since I've been in there. They were off, but I'm going to get in next week, try to get a couple workouts. In fact, you know, you get older, man. I got like this hot knee now that doesn't feel great. I got a bad elbow, but occasionally'm going to get in next week, try to get a couple workouts. Pat, you know, you get older, man. I got like this hot knee now that doesn't feel great. I got a bad elbow.
Starting point is 00:25:47 But occasionally, you got to go in there, pop some ibuprofen, throw a little bio-freeze on it, and show the young lads what's up. Yeah, you got to let the young lads know you still got it. But don't be doing it too much because I did the other day. I had a tweaked knee for like the last week, dude. It was swollen. Today, I can put a little weight on it. I'm back.
Starting point is 00:26:04 Do you tell them how you did it? Well, I was golfing into a net on concrete for like the last week, dude. It was swollen. Today I can put a little weight on it. I'm back. Do you tell them how you did it? Well, I was golfing into a net on concrete in Air Force Ones, and I was fucking swinging a bang, and it tweaked that thing. It was this big, Bob. This morning I woke up. I feel pretty good. I feel like an athlete again, you know? Listen, here's what you got to do.
Starting point is 00:26:19 Whatever Tom Cruise is doing, I'm going to start stalking him. I think he eats placenta burgers at night, drinks like some sort of cord blood. I mean, whatever he's doing. I mean, this dude, he's on another level. He's 60 years old, Pat. He looks like he's 40 years old. You tell me how a guy can somehow
Starting point is 00:26:37 look better in a movie 35 years later than he did in the first one because it doesn't make any sense. Well, how about there's like he had wrinkles too. It's not like he had the big fake face like he got a bunch of work done. It like seemed natural, AJ. Like AJ. His running form is perfect too, Bob.
Starting point is 00:26:53 I'm sure you loved that, didn't you? Knee drive, arm swing, knee drive. I mean he was – Here's the thing. We're watching that together. I'm watching it with my wife. This is why I love my wife. She started laughing at Tom
Starting point is 00:27:05 Cruz's running form through the woods. It made me feel really good that we could sit there and both analyze that and realize he can look however he wants to look. He can be as cut up and he can have that million dollar smile. Listen, man, you can't hide that running form. It's all out there. That's a 60-year-old dude who
Starting point is 00:27:22 is maybe moderately athletic trying to run the best he can all right perfect bob he's running how you're exactly supposed to run you know that's he's he's running exactly like they draw it up knee to knee at about 90 degrees yeah need the arm at the same exact thing his hands were a little bit too tight i think people say rested hands but he ran out of the book. You're saying not athletic because of such. Well, I mean, listen, Pat, you know the great thing is all about the improv. I mean, you can sit here and golf swing and get it all technically perfect,
Starting point is 00:27:54 then you can watch Tiger Woods swing a golf club. All I know, I mean, I play with some pretty fast dudes. They all had form that was similar, but it was all their own. And so Tom Cruise and them trying to robot that thing like a dude running on a treadmill like that that's not gonna cut it for me running through the woods how about when he caught that swing pass on the beach though he was going 100 miles an hour moving hey that's how you build a team though by the way that's right let's get them boozed up at the hard deck and go play a little dog fight football dog fight football hell yeah who's offense who's defense same Same time. That's how you build a team, fucking asshole.
Starting point is 00:28:26 John Hamm. Hey, Pat, I hope you take some notes with your guys and have some team-building exercises. Get them out there on the beach. A little dogfight football back and forth. Hair flowing, tank tops in the breeze, greased up, going back and forth. Right there is the sun setting. Where's the referee?
Starting point is 00:28:42 You got John Hamm sitting there yelling at you about what you're doing. That's the scene that I want to see for the whole PMS crew. Bob, you'll ref that? That's what AJ just said. You'll ref that? I'll ref it, Coach. I'll be Hundo sitting there making the calls, touchdown here and there. Hundo.
Starting point is 00:29:00 Go ahead, Connor. Question for Hundo, Bobby Carpenter. Yeah, Hundo, Bob Carpenter. First of all, great to see you. You look great. The glasses are unbelievable. But with the NIL stuff, I believe it's Texas who has like a 13-person committee that basically just runs the team.
Starting point is 00:29:14 Can you see that happening for all these teams now, especially the high-end ones, so that they kind of just control the NIL money and kind of understand what needs to get done? Yeah, so basically I think Texas, that's a model that a lot of people use. You're going to get some powerful people that are connected to the university. You know, at Ohio State, you know, Cohesion, the one NIL deal, they've got a couple former players on it. And you're not technically supposed to have any connection, you know,
Starting point is 00:29:38 with the coaches, and they're not supposed to direct dollars. But when you have people who have knowledge about the situation, that always helps facilitate where those dollars are supposed to get. So I think that that's a model that you're going to begin to see, you know, kind of throughout college football where it's not actually part of the university, but it's people who kind of know what's going on.
Starting point is 00:29:59 I can't wait to see what you get into this weekend, Bob. I can't wait to hear the shenanigans. I'll be in Columbus tonight with SmackDown. We'll be flying back in there. If you're still standing, we'd love to see you. Coach, I'll try to get out there for you. I know this. I ran into one of the event coordinators here at the Memorial, and they're like, listen, we're emailing Pat. We were going back and forth.
Starting point is 00:30:25 They wanted to get some sort of nine-hole celebrity playoff with you, Mr. Hawk. They somehow threw me in there with it, but I said, hey, I will throw that out to Pat to make sure that he knows he is welcome at Jack's place. Wow. Let's go. Let's go, dude. Is this every year this happens? Yeah, every year.
Starting point is 00:30:43 Hey, they said they'll put it together for you next year. Bob, keep shaking hands over there. I'm thankful you played at Ohio State and you get to roll around over there. Ladies and gentlemen, live from the Memorial in Ohio State, legend. Hey, Rooster's damn good, isn't it? Hey. Delicious. Are you with them today?
Starting point is 00:31:04 Coach, I got the little deal on right there You see Mr. Rooster right there Call sign Rooster Shout out You know Rooster Is Rooster in real life more like the Rooster at the beginning of the movie Or at the end of the movie? How is he different in the beginning from the end?
Starting point is 00:31:20 So you didn't see it Ladies and gentlemen, can't thank you enough General Bob Carpenter You know how he was. A great fighter pilot? No, he didn't want to fucking go fast. He wouldn't engage. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:31:33 He wouldn't engage. No, I would say that Miles is like his character at the end of the movie. Like, this is it. All right. Hey, way to go, Miles. Let's fucking go, Miles. Great stash on the kid, too. I mean, he...
Starting point is 00:31:46 What? I mean, he... What? I mean, why'd that dude have to do what he did to me? Oh, when he got up. We're back on that still? Still, yes. I don't even know what he did. So you made a comment on SmackDown and then he tweeted, like, that's not what
Starting point is 00:32:02 happened. Basically, yeah. Funny, bro. Funny bro. I didn't create the story, bro. I think it's sometimes two people just need to get in the same room and talk it out. Maybe that's what you need to do. Because I don't want anything to do with any of it. Listen, I want to let Rooster know, after watching his performance,
Starting point is 00:32:15 I'm a fucking big fan. We're huge. All right, we're in there. Career changing. But he did throw me under the Denmark tabloids. You know, and I was having other languages attack me for this entire thing. I made up the story of what happened in Hawaii. It was hard not to think about that a lot while I was watching.
Starting point is 00:32:33 You can work it out in Tahoe. It'll be in Tahoe. Yes. Oh, yeah. I think my knees hurt. I mean. Might be tough. I don't know if me and Rooster are going gonna be able to Get back out of an awesome golf tournament
Starting point is 00:32:46 Well you gotta watch How amazing would you If I was him I was like man I'm a powerful dude This guy's not coming He is dude Rooster's about to be in like 100 movies a year He's about to be the next Rock
Starting point is 00:32:55 Oh he's in a new Godfather series And another series with one of the Hemsworth guys He's about to be After watching him in that movie I was like This guy's about to be a fucking guy And he's yoked. Probably Hangman, too.
Starting point is 00:33:07 Hangman was awesome. Hangman is a guy. He was... Hey, he... Once you get the seal of approval from TC... You're right. Fucking enjoy. Enjoy the next 30 years.
Starting point is 00:33:17 Can't wait. You know, it'd be good if I didn't hate that guy for what he did to me with the tablet. Maybe you show up with Hangman in Tahoe. Huh? How do you feel about it? Can we get Hangman's real name? Glenn Powell.
Starting point is 00:33:29 What else is he in? Everybody wants him. Yeah, there it is. Oh, that's a movie? Yeah. Oh, yeah. Cruz has tapped him as one of the next guys. You nailed it, Connor.
Starting point is 00:33:38 I said everything. I knew it. By the way, no spoilers. Hangman, pretty big part. Yeah. Pretty big part of the whole thing. He's a dog. Very big part.
Starting point is 00:33:46 He is an absolute dog. Why was Miles Coleside not Whiplash? Yeah, that would have been good. Well, because his dad's name was Goose. So Goose wanted to stay in the family. But why is Goose a rooster? Is a rooster in a Goose family? Yeah, I don't understand.
Starting point is 00:33:58 I mean, you could probably make the connection somehow. What if it was Yardbird? Ornithological, yeah. Yarddog? Huh? Ornithological, yeah. Yard dog? Huh? Ornithological, yeah. Oh, okay. What does that mean?
Starting point is 00:34:09 Study of birds. They have wings. Duck would have been cooler then because duck, duck, goose. This is great. It's fun to see in person. Hey, we will tell him. I guess maybe if we see him,
Starting point is 00:34:22 if the knee, listen, I hope the knee gets healthy enough. I'm kind of confused because you told Bob it's fully healed. It's not fully healed. Oh, it's like 98%. I sent him back. I wasn't able to do this just yesterday, Paul.
Starting point is 00:34:34 Can you run out like Big Ben? How does Big Ben run out? Yeah, that's actually how I've been. That's how I've been moving. The golf thing's still pivoting on it. I don't know. There's a lot of torque you're putting on that thing that's and i was fucking just blindly doing it you are reckless yes exactly in this particular fashion not to the society like you you know and that we
Starting point is 00:34:55 even got further evidence of how destructive you could possibly be to your environment whenever you are behind the wheel of any type of vehicle. You know that? That was alarming to learn about. A golf cart? I've talked about that on this show before. Then I asked him to drive here. I'm a bad guy.
Starting point is 00:35:14 Oh, my God. It's early in the morning, though. You put people's lives at risk. You don't want me driving home after the show, but driving here, I'm great. Call an Uber, maybe? Maybe it's because you wake up at 3 a.m. No, the golf cart thing I talked about on this show.
Starting point is 00:35:29 Yesterday. By the way. Before that. Yeah, but you never said you drove it directly in, which is the truth. Yeah, I did. I was nothing. Believe me, I am not ashamed of it. You should be because you've got to be an absolute doofus to put a fucking golf cart
Starting point is 00:35:40 in a pond on a golf course. Some may say that, Ty. And at that moment, I may have been that doofus. But that's a different level. There's a lot of doofuses that go out on a golf course. Some may say that, Ty. And at that moment, I may have been that doofus. That's a different level. There's a lot of doofuses that go out onto a golf course. Different levels of sobriety, and they somehow manage. It was very, very reckless. I used to be very reckless with where I used to park golf
Starting point is 00:35:55 carts. I will not deny that. And driving is also a problem. Gabe Morenci was talking about it yesterday on his show. I mean, you can tip a golf cart, but to actually put it in the pond. That's a problem. Thank you. Well, congrats, AJ. It's easy to tip them.
Starting point is 00:36:09 I'm sure plenty of people have tipped them. That's what's really dangerous. You tip and you put your arm out, and then it just snaps right off. Yeah. Guy almost lost his leg. No golf cart things in the Jackass, the new one, right? No, I think Knoxville, damn near got beheaded a couple years ago doing that. Not a couple years.
Starting point is 00:36:24 That was like 20 years ago. That was one of the first ones that really propelled them into the stratosphere, I think, when they jumped that fucking thing. At the mini golf place? Yeah. There was a video recently of a guy getting beheaded in a golf cart. He survived, though. We have to say that, I think, right?
Starting point is 00:36:38 I don't know if he survived or not. I should not have mentioned it, maybe, in this particular episode. If he really died, I think he survived. Okay, thank you. We don't have to, I didn't know if we were going to have to moan. No, no, no. We could be, well, I don't know. He got pretty fucked up, though.
Starting point is 00:36:52 Yeah, he's never welcomed back to the course. You remember when assholes were just, well, yeah, of course. He's not just like this guy. Wait, what happened? Was he being reckless or did something just happen? Yeah, he's being reckless. He's being like you. He's being like you.
Starting point is 00:37:01 And his head almost got cut off. I think that's enough of a punishment. You don't have to ban him from the course. A few too many arm style lights got behind the wheel. Oh, he like you. He's been AJ Hawk by the way. And his head almost got cut off. I think that's enough of a punishment. You don't have to ban him from the course. A few too many Armstow lights go up behind the wheel. Oh, he's Canadian.
Starting point is 00:37:10 No, I don't think so. I think Armstow's a Canadian. Yeah, I'm not an Armshaw. I never know what the accents people throw around here. Oh, you think that's like a blues clues,
Starting point is 00:37:17 like what they're... Yeah, oh yeah. I try to judge the accents on what we're talking about, the topic. I understand. I get it. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:37:23 How about... Yeah, the guy is alive. Zeta just got caught. Okay, there we go. Hey, congrats, man. We didn. I understand. I get it. Yeah. How about, yeah, the guy is alive. Zeta just got caught. Okay, good. There we go. Hey, congrats, man. We didn't think that was possible when we first met him.
Starting point is 00:37:29 After three major surgeries, he lived. Okay, congrats. Is that true? Anyways, how about whenever assholes were just driving people over with the golf cart?
Starting point is 00:37:36 Oh, yeah. That was terrible. I like that trend. That was bad. Worst. People were promoting that as if it was good. I was like,
Starting point is 00:37:42 this one's bad. Wait, people were driving in golf courses? Just running people over. I did not. I mean, that trend. While they're standing like this, boom. I was like, this one's bad. Wait, people were driving in golf courses? Just running people over. I did not. I missed that trend. While they're standing like this, boom. I mean, you could kill somebody.
Starting point is 00:37:50 Yeah. Yeah. People were doing it. I wasn't really worried about dying. I was more so worried about Achilles, knee. Yeah, you're not going to die, but if they hit you at the right spot, your head will snap. Man, I would get up and chase that cart fast.
Starting point is 00:38:02 Well, I think that's what a lot of people are doing. Then people are making fun of the people that are getting run over. How can you make fun of them? The internet does some dumb things. I need to go check that out. It's old. It's old. It's old. A lot of sideways legs on those. The knees are the problem.
Starting point is 00:38:17 Zito was looking at the wrong video. We don't know if that original guy is still remember something. One guy that almost died. Now you're going to do it again? I didn't want to do this. Now I've got to go through this guy's dying twice. Thank you, Tone.
Starting point is 00:38:31 Sorry. I apologize for being the first person on the show to bring up someone who was dead, potentially. Well, I mean, the Sun Tzu book recognizes that. Sun Tzu wasn't decapitated by a golf cart, we don't think. Maybe. You're right. Never mind.
Starting point is 00:38:43 Another one for him now? Back in the day. Anyways, moment of silence for that guy if he did die. Okay. Moments passed. I hope he didn't though. Yeah. But there's too many golf cart accidents
Starting point is 00:38:57 that are near death. If he's getting the wrong research on golf cart nearly... People need to chill the fuck out. And that starts with you. The one Zito found, the guy was riding on the back of it like a jackass so okay well that's what we're talking to do that yeah you gotta be careful and listen Kendall Roy with your golf cart going into the water yeah you hear me oh his car went in the water no spoiler but he had a passenger, too. Spoiler. Did he check on her? Okay, good little...
Starting point is 00:39:26 See? It wasn't a her. Spoiler. Well, sorry. I mean, there's... I'm trying not to... I'm trying to throw people off. Yeah, well, your first two are directly on there,
Starting point is 00:39:35 but that's what you were with the golf cart. Let's be safe on these golf courses. Yeah. Please. Let's enjoy the fact that we get to drive around in miniature cars. They are awesome. They keep the sun off you.
Starting point is 00:39:44 You're able to get things much quicker. You have a drink in there, some music. Let's not fucking ruin it. I agree. Please, people. Have you seen those ones that are like scooters, though? The bike one's my favorite. Yeah, those are going to change the game.
Starting point is 00:39:56 Yeah, the bike one's awesome. Have you seen this one? Yeah, they're not going to change. They've been around for a little while. I used to see those at the old charity outings five or six years ago, and they're awesome, but no one's going to actually use that. Yes.
Starting point is 00:40:05 Yes, what are you talking about? Where you put your bag right here, and you drive it solo? No, there's a bag on the front. All right, well, if we get a picture of it, then I can make a judgment. And you're on that thing like a street bike almost. But I think it has, you know the old school office chairs where you had to put your knees down? I think that is how it is actually set up. I don't think I've seen this thing.
Starting point is 00:40:22 This sounds a little different than what I'm thinking. And then your clubs are obviously right off the top of that thing so you get up and it's... There's another one that you ride like a scooter that you're almost sideways with it. It's unbelievable. Nick sent it to me the other day. Like a Segway?
Starting point is 00:40:36 It's like a longboard Segway. Four wheels. It's those golf boards. You've seen them before. A scooter? I gotta get one. I don't play golf boards. You've seen them before. A scooter. I've got to get one. You're talking about... I don't play golf, but I need to get one. Yeah, kind of similar to that, but it's longer like a skateboard on the middle, and you kind
Starting point is 00:40:51 of ride it sideways like this. I can't do that. I can't do that. All the seven country clubs you belong to probably don't let you bring your own thing. Change my car a year ago, they're all fucking up. Yes. I get it. Got a lot of emails.
Starting point is 00:41:03 I've been there. I mean, I'm assuming that they're going to be mad that I didn't send emails like, hey, your card is no longer blah, blah, blah. They sent me emails for like two months and I didn't respond. And then I think it's over. I think that's just how you take the key and check out of the hotel. Yep. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:41:18 It's like unsubscribing from stuff. Yeah. Yes. Here's Zito. Zito has a... Yes. Oh, those are sweet. Is that not sick right there? I've never seen that. Yeah, I didn Here's Zito. Zito has a... Yes. Oh, jeez. Those are sweet.
Starting point is 00:41:26 Is that not sick right there? I've never seen that. Yeah, I didn't see that either. And then they make... Look at the tires, too. See, I've rode those before. That's cool, but I don't think that's going to take... I don't...
Starting point is 00:41:36 That thing stinks. Yeah, I don't love... That's the one. Because you're... So you're leaning forward, too, right? Yes. You're kind of like a... It's almost like...
Starting point is 00:41:42 And the cool... I like that your clubs are right there, so you pop out, you grab them right away, you have to walk around the back of it. Yes. And it's easy to put the club back in there. If all four of you have one,
Starting point is 00:41:50 then it's cool. Yeah, you got to have a squad. What if it's three guys and then you with just that? You're probably not playing with that guy. Yeah. You guys play ahead.
Starting point is 00:41:57 No, I think, right? You guys, you would, right? Wouldn't you? If you had one, and you showed up and I didn't have one. You'd still play with him. You'd still play with him.
Starting point is 00:42:05 You would still play with me driving my car. Oh, yeah, for sure. But I'm sure the person driving, like when you're waiting at the – like you're probably still doing a lot of waiting if no one else. On this thing? Yeah. That needs to become an issue. But don't you play golf so you can hang out and talk with your buddy in the cart?
Starting point is 00:42:19 Like you bring Goop along and Goop doesn't even play. So, I mean, that's golf for me. I mean, the community of golf is certainly on the tee box and the green. That takes away the community if you're individual the whole time. Yeah, tee box and green, though, right? Yeah, but you could create a lot more fellowship if you're together. I agree, but then your game is going to take a long time. You never lose a ball.
Starting point is 00:42:36 Priorities. Listen, this is a big conversation. This is very big. We should get this after the break. You're right. This is too deep. Well, we got three minutes. Yeah, plenty of time.
Starting point is 00:42:42 Because this is something like. Let's unpack this here. I would like to. Because this is something like... Let's unpack this here. I would like to. When people say that and they're dead serious, it freaks me out. Let me unpack that for you. Well, let's get to a high view. Let's put a pin in it and circle back. I mean, there's all those things that they try to drop in there.
Starting point is 00:42:57 Because I do enjoy watching everybody's shot, too. I feel like those are good moments. Like, hey, let's put 10 on this. You ain't going to hit anything and then driving off afterwards. But then like, I think looking back on every round, you're like, I could have been much more efficient.
Starting point is 00:43:11 I think we could have had all these conversations on the green or waiting, but while we're on a tee box, it depends on what kind of round you're playing. If you're playing a Michael Jordan round and you guys are playing for money and you're just trying to be fast, three hours, 18 holes,
Starting point is 00:43:22 the bikes will make that 10 times faster. Some people will take solo carts with like eight different people that's what jordan does yeah those are awesome come rolling through yeah well and by the way if everybody's you can go roll over to somebody that's hitting too you don't have to yeah you're right i would do it we should do it this past weekend we basically were at every shot at the same i just don't think course is gonna let you bring that on yet well courses need to figure it forget the fucking bikes dude yeah i agree i think if you pay them they'll be fine with it like if you pay the car fee i wish i would but you'll still like in so i don't ever walk a golf course in tahoe you walk that is i guess one of
Starting point is 00:43:52 the decent things about walking a lot of people say i like to walk because it makes me play better because i'm thinking about my shot i'm walking to which no it just gives you more time to think about how terrible that original shot was the same thing as bringing your own walking cart that's not true so but it's cool. The fellowship I've been talking about, you're walking your three guys together and your caddies, so you all walk down the fairway together. Hopefully, usually I'm far left, far right, but at least I have the first
Starting point is 00:44:14 hundred yards with me before I split off. That's when you can talk. The golf community is the community aspect of golfing is awesome. It's the best. Getting out there and drinking some beers. Sunday I played with Strahan and Sean Payton. And I didn't know either of them, really. And they were both awesome.
Starting point is 00:44:29 And we got to walk 18 holes. And we spent a lot of time with them and their caddies. You get to know them. I spent more time with you today than I have spent with a lot of people that I'm very close to in my life. We just walked for four hours together. Yeah, that's real. That's an interesting thing.
Starting point is 00:44:43 I think you play better when you're walking because you don't want to have to walk an extra six miles. That's what made me a better golfer when I walked. I would like to stay on track with that hole right there. Yeah, also, though, sometimes worse because if you're hitting from way back and there's a hill and the green's up there and you can't see it, I'm not running up there or walking up there to look to see where it is. No way! But people do, yeah. This is your caddy's foot.
Starting point is 00:45:03 Yeah, if you have a caddy, they'll do it. My brother, he might not do that for me. How's that knee, pal? Probably been doing a lot of running. Feels great. It's a glorious day because not only is the toxic table here at Ty Schmidt at Boston Connor, one half of the hammer, damn cowboys at Tung Diggs is here. You're looking fantastic.
Starting point is 00:45:20 Thanks, you too. You look so good. Thanks, you too. Ty, what do you think about how it's looking? Tony, you look great today. You really do. It's a very good outfit Who's you guys
Starting point is 00:45:30 You and Ty Are you trying to do a communist act right now I'm not a commie Didn't they vote for Connor as the culprit And joining us in the studio Sorry I should have done that quicker I should have known I don't need to be reintroduced.
Starting point is 00:45:46 Yeah, because there's probably a lot of people that literally just turned on or were potentially not here at the beginning whenever we said, holy shit, a day that'll go down in the annals of the history of this program. AJ Hawk, live to see you. Howdy, man.
Starting point is 00:46:01 It's great to see you, man. Whenever you think about football, all day, every day, obviously, it's the Good to be here. It's great to see you, man. Whenever you think about football, okay? All day, every day. Obviously. It's the best sport on earth. I mean, honestly. Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:46:13 I've been in the trenches with these soccer folks. You know, there's a lot of bets coming from overseas about, you know, what I will donate to something, and then they'll call it soccer for a year, these particular fans from overseas. I've been entrenched in it, and they're like, it's football, it's football, it's football. It's football, it's football. It's like, it might have been at one point. I'm sorry.
Starting point is 00:46:29 We made a much better version, okay? And we have a history of just changing names and doing stuff like that. We do apologize, and I don't understand how we did take the exact same name as the first. How did that happen? I don't know. I honestly don't know. I mean, Paul Brown basically invented football.
Starting point is 00:46:43 Who invented the term football? Did Paul Brown just say say what do they call soccer he kind of changed football he didn't invent it but I don't know like when did when did the term football
Starting point is 00:46:51 get invented as far as our football and not soccer well when did the soccer term football get invented had to be long long ago before football yeah there's like some story
Starting point is 00:47:00 yeah on Netflix ugh there's some sort of documentary no series not documentary yeah talking about how on Netflix. There's some sort of documentary. No, serious, not documentary. Talking about how way back in the day,
Starting point is 00:47:12 like towns and even factories had turned, like in the 1870s, like I mean, 14s, like way back, way, way back soccer comes from, I think. Well, I mean, there are a bunch of towns in, I mean, even Massachusetts, the whole entire New England area that are just towns that were in England at the time, but now since they came over through Massachusetts. So old.
Starting point is 00:47:29 Why did we not change the name of that? There should have been at least maybe a buyout process of that because the whole thought of them, you know, me calling it football is like— The first versions of it in America, you couldn't pick it up. But when they did eventually change it they probably should change the name as well no no but why did we call it the same thing that a different sport was being called i wonder i'd like to know why that took problem and why am i getting um hassled by the europeans for a thing that i don't know the actual answer to i'm guessing it was just a
Starting point is 00:48:01 oh who cares i'm gonna i to make a, guess what? In 60 years, no one's going to be referring to that fucking football. They're going to be referring to this football. Still battling. That guy could have never guessed. Whoever guessed it. It says it came from Rugby Football Union, and they just took football and dropped the rugby. They still should have chose something else.
Starting point is 00:48:22 That's what I'm saying. I think we should have called it something else. Like, when was it ever here, football? And then they're like, actually, we're going to just call it soccer now. Yeah, when did we start calling that soccer? When did Americans start calling it soccer? Deutschland, Germany. I think that's probably a similar time.
Starting point is 00:48:36 Nah, that's not football. That's soccer now. What? Yeah, that's a sport. You got to wear socks while you play, so. Yeah, high socks. Soccer. What is it?
Starting point is 00:48:44 I don't know, but i love our sport aj i honestly do i love football so much and i i think it's only growing and it's only going to get more and more popular with the games going to different countries and everything like i wonder how long it'll take for our sport to overtake their sport and if it ever even has a chance because after watching these some of these soccer things the amount of passion in that it's like their actual blood. I don't think we'll ever be able to overtake soccer in some places, even though in the past I've clearly stated that once some of these times see our sport, they're going to be American football fans instead of European football fans. I don't know what.
Starting point is 00:49:18 See, I haven't been over and seen a soccer game. I'm sure you have, right? Like, have you gone and seen Liverpool play or Manchester United? I saw PSG play against somebody. I had a buddy send me a picture a couple weeks ago. It was insane, yes. He was there a couple weeks ago at one of the huge game that was happening, and he is not a big
Starting point is 00:49:33 soccer fan. He's like, this is pretty sweet, man. The fans are unbelievable. Flares. We're talking flares, singing. We'll never get to that point, no. Football fans won't be there, I don't think. We're already programmed differently, I don't think. We're already programmed different. I don't know. WWE's going to Wales.
Starting point is 00:49:49 First time in a stadium. I think it's in August or September. First time in a stadium in Europe or UK. And I've almost made that mistake a couple times. I don't know. I apologize. I don't know which one's Europe, which one's UK. I don't know who.
Starting point is 00:50:05 Don't ask me. I either got really close to offending one's Europe, which one's UK. I don't know who, but I guess I... Don't ask me. I either got really close to offending some people on SmackDown one time, or I was about to. Whatever the case. First time in Europe or UK in a stadium show, the European fans of WWE, they are maniacs. Absolute maniacs. They're loud the entire show.
Starting point is 00:50:23 They are part... They stand up the whole time. The entire time. Soccer, they stand up the whole game, right? Singing, chanting. Vuvuzelas and all that stuff. Yeah, from the. Vuvuzelas.
Starting point is 00:50:31 That's pretty close to the Vuvuzela. Yeah. But even with football, it's different just because you're not. When Peyton would be on offense, he would quiet everybody down. And then, obviously, when your defense goes out, that's when they're standing. And stadiums are too comfortable, man. Everybody's sitting down. Like when you get a background,
Starting point is 00:50:47 like that's why college stadiums can see seats. So many, they're bleacher seats. When you start putting armrests and backs in it, the same size stadium almost, but you just take up way more space. So here's a good followup to that. The commanders allegedly with their new stadium,
Starting point is 00:50:59 the projections, 55,000 seats, FedEx field used to have like 90 or a hundred thousand. So they're going to suites they're going to more expensive seats 55 000 let's make this the nicest most convenient place possible that feels like the wave of the future right like sofi is suites how many suites can we fit in this stadium that's all that matters yeah because people are going to want to watch other shit and you're going to have to give them good internet too and the experience has to be
Starting point is 00:51:22 somewhat similar to at home as you know the generations unfold over here but i would assume european fans listen to us go what we just we need a place to stand give us cement do they have all those nice like luxury boxes over there are they as big a deal i think i saw lebron in one well brady was in one but are they like in the owner's box i correct can we call gumpy please let's call it oh yeah we need yeah let's call gumpy that That's all New England's adding. They're just adding basically another set. You know when you're playing New England, that area. Hey, this guy, they're doing renovations to Foxborough Field
Starting point is 00:51:52 or whatever the hell it's called. What is it? Gillette. Gillette Stadium. He said, oh, we get a Super Bowl. Because the rules is if you build a new stadium, a Super Bowl will come to say thank you. Since they're renovating Gillette Stadium, he's like, oh, we're getting a Super Bowl will come to say thank you. Since they're renovating Gillette Stadium,
Starting point is 00:52:05 he's like, oh, we're getting a Super Bowl. We're getting a Super Bowl. We should. I was having a thing at the top. Super Bowl 2025. They're going to have one, right, Con? It's going to be absolutely gorgeous. But like I was saying,
Starting point is 00:52:14 they're not having that open little tunnel where wind would blow through. I kind of like that, though. For playing-wise, but I think it looks cool. It looks like, wow, is this thing open to the public out here? Fuck that thing. You could just run straight out of the stadium.
Starting point is 00:52:24 Yeah, it's terrible. It's a wind. It creates a nightmare. It's a nightmare. I don't know how Gostkowski and them are able to be so good going into that for all those years. That one, I'll tell you what, that open end had my number. Yeah. That one had my number.
Starting point is 00:52:38 Yeah, it's awesome for Folk, too, because he's great kicking in the elements or whatever. But yeah, they're just adding. They're basically closing it off so it's a full stadium. I believe they're just adding a shit ton of more suites. Joining us now, live from his Canadian COVID cave, a man whose spirit runs through us every single day. Hell yeah. Hashtag free goop.
Starting point is 00:52:58 Ladies and gentlemen, Bubba Gumpino. Yay, Gumpy! Gumpy, those soccer stadiums over there, we saw LeBron in a suite. How many suites are there, and is the rest of it just bleachers? That's why everybody's insane, and do you think that'll ever change like what's happening here in America? No, it's just chaos.
Starting point is 00:53:13 They like it that way. They love it that way. I don't even know. When my brother went to an Arsenal game, you couldn't drink at your seats, though. My buddy said the same thing. He couldn't bring a drink down in the bowl, whatever that means. Yeah, so they have to stand in the fucking that area and just get boozed up before they go back to their seat.
Starting point is 00:53:32 Oh, so everybody's just chugging. Yeah. Okay, we can lift the atmosphere in here a little bit. Well, let's force a chug to happen with all the booze that we have. Well, how do we do that? Well, you're only allowed to drink in this part that you can't see the game in. So go on. Better finish it.
Starting point is 00:53:50 Do your thing. I guess Zito just told me there's nine different suites at SoFi. Nine different levels of suites. Wait, nine? Are you serious? Yeah, there's patio suites, terrace suites, perch suites, Google Cloud suites, field cabanas, bungalows. Bungalow. There's a whole thing there. Perch suites, terrace suites, perch suites, Google Cloud suites, field cabanas, bungalows. Bungalow.
Starting point is 00:54:06 There's a whole thing there. Perch suites. I mean, yeah, that's absolutely the future. Not even like gigantic stadiums. It's going to take away from the atmosphere. We don't want more people. We need the right people. That's what they're trying to say.
Starting point is 00:54:17 And the right people are the people that pay a million dollars for a suite. So I think like, hey, Gump, any soccer tournaments this weekend? No, there's like the Nations League. It's international play right now. for a sweep. So I think like, um, Hey Gump, we put any soccer tournaments this weekend? Nah, there's like the, uh, nations league. It's international play right now. I saw Cristiano play yesterday.
Starting point is 00:54:31 He was playing. Who says that's not a big deal though. Why is this one not count goop? Because you get, you get to pick and choose. Nobody gives a fuck about it. Okay. I know you're probably right,
Starting point is 00:54:41 AJ, but I've taken a stance and I have to die on it. I respect that goop. I do. But I mean, I don't, why, but I've taken a stance and I have to die on it. I respect that, Goop. I do. But, I mean, why is this one garbage compared to the other 600 we've seen? Same reason why, like, USFL is. Yeah, nobody cares about the Nations League. Chris Giorno was playing yesterday.
Starting point is 00:54:57 But these same guys, though, these big-time players, play in these games that you call garbage, right? Yeah, but De Bruyne came out. Like, De Bruyne is one of the best players in the world. He's like, the Nations League is a fucking waste of time. We just finished a season with the Premier League. I don't need to play in this thing for Belgium right now. Wow, Belgium's upset.
Starting point is 00:55:14 Portugal's got Cristiano yesterday. Yeah, that's right. He was balling. They tied Espanola, I believe. That's right. España. España. All right, Gump, we appreciate you, buddy.
Starting point is 00:55:25 You look good. Love you. Good luck. Good luck. Soccer doesn't make any sense. I mean. Football. I know you think I'm joking about this.
Starting point is 00:55:36 But there's a tournament every four days. That is bigger. The biggest one there is. Bigger than the one before. When you tell me, hey, the soccer Lombardi, I legit don't know what that is anymore well it's actually the soccer Lordo
Starting point is 00:55:47 and that's happening in Kitzer and there's only two tournaments you have to worry about with you tonight huh you taking that
Starting point is 00:55:54 to Smackdown I should I think just pull it out for no reason we're down in here Columbus Blue Jack you guys are never
Starting point is 00:56:02 going to hoist one of these ever that's what I'll probably say take a good look at it never going to hoist one of these. Ever. That's what I'll probably say. Take a good look at it. Never going to hoist one here. I don't want to be here. I love Columbus. I love the Ohioan people.
Starting point is 00:56:12 Sure. But there's going to be a lot of sloppy people at this thing that I have. What do you mean sloppy? Slobs. Absolute bombs. You know what we're talking about. That's not what I'm talking about. Such a good guy, this guy.
Starting point is 00:56:25 Yeah, this is the commie. I'm not a commie, God damn it. What I'm talking about, do we have the clip? Do we have the clip? Do we have the clip? Don't need it. We'll get it later. This will come back up again.
Starting point is 00:56:36 But if people are just getting hammered, is the memorial just a massive party? That's what it is. I don't know what the crossover is. People that attend the memorial and people that go to SmackDown. Is it a big crossover? Pretty high. You would know. I don't know what the crossover is. People that attend the Memorial and people that go to SmackDown. Is it a big crossover? Pretty high. You would know. I wouldn't really know.
Starting point is 00:56:48 I would imagine, yeah, there's definitely some that are going to make their way. I believe it's Nationwide Arena, downtown Columbus. It's kind of a far ride, far Uber for some of those people, but I'm sure some people make it. All right, let's take some phone calls here. I mean, yeah, you'll have Craig Stadler will probably be front row. Is that the celebrity that General Bob was talking about? Maybe.
Starting point is 00:57:05 Who's that? Former PGA golfer. His son Kevin might be there. Yeah, the big walrus. He's awesome. Craig Stadler. Is he from Columbus? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:57:15 I have no idea. He's just a golfer. I don't know if he's even playing. He's not playing anymore. No. You just said a random golfer. I was trying to think in my head. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:57:23 You said golf. I thought Stadler. That's what your brain does. What was the music? Poop in my fingernails. Poop, poop, poop. Do you have any? Have you watched that back yet?
Starting point is 00:57:33 No, I listened to the song two days ago with the kids. They're still on it. They're trying to find more like it. They're getting sick of it. But yeah, they still make some chuckle. Because that guy, what? He's an A Hawks super fan Right
Starting point is 00:57:45 Yeah The guy that made that song Is AJ Hawks super fan He made a song about it Is he Yeah Yes we've already done it Yeah we did
Starting point is 00:57:50 You saw the other weird YouTube song From like 2011 right The guy has 3600 songs Or something like that Yeah 4000 No no he's a
Starting point is 00:57:57 He's a Packers super fan He's not Nothing Like that Individually towards me If so facto Well you are the All time leading tackler
Starting point is 00:58:04 For the Packers And he loved tackling Well, if he can come out with a sequel Like Top Gun's sequel To poop my fingernails We're all in love Piss in my fingernails Oh, I mean, not just kids
Starting point is 00:58:14 You too Everybody Everyone Wet wipes, you said, was a big problem Wet wipes? No, not wet wipes The moisture wicking The other day we talked about
Starting point is 00:58:23 You made Oh, yeah You definitely can't put it in septic. Even the pipes for sewage are brutal. Yeah, well, you make me think about it now every single time because when I go to wet plants... Even the ones that say they're flushable... Have you gotten to know what the neighbors have?
Starting point is 00:58:36 Something blown up in Ohio? No, I know people that have septic, which I have septic, so I know you can't. I have a septic tank. But if you're on city, they don't want you doing it either. They don't care. No, they don't care because they're scraping. Go wash your hands. I don't care.
Starting point is 00:58:47 You can still use them. Well, thank you. But it makes me think every time I go to use it. I mean, when you have your own fucking sewage facility in your backyard, yeah, maybe don't do it. But you can fucking wipe your ass with wet wipes and flush them down the toilet. You'll be just fine. Thank you. I just don't want to be a bad member of the neighborhood now.
Starting point is 00:59:04 Kill the turtles, kill the earth, fine. That's cool. Has your septic blown up? The turtles are going to... Why are the turtles... Those wrap around the turtles. The straws go in their nose. Those wrap around their neck.
Starting point is 00:59:14 What? The wet wipes do? I saw it. I did see it. Like six packs? Biodegradable. What the hell? Disintegrate.
Starting point is 00:59:20 I can't... I'm not saying it's 100% true. I'm just saying I did read that in two spots. Oh. The plastic is six packs. Two different sources. Two different sources. Two different memes? You could say that's pretty much a confirmation.
Starting point is 00:59:32 Well, a lot of people would need less to say it was a confirmation in the world that we live in. I appreciate you trying to scoop it out somewhere else. Two different memes told you that that's bad for the sea turtles. That's crazy. Wait, what made you bring that up? Why did you ask me that question right now? Because, literally, I thought about it this morning. that's bad for the sea turtles. That's crazy. Well, the meme info What made you bring that up? Why did you ask me that question right now?
Starting point is 00:59:47 Because, literally, I thought about it this morning. I took a massive shit and I was sitting there and I was thinking to myself, this is probably one that needs a wet wipe. This is probably going to be
Starting point is 00:59:59 a little bit of a clean up and I go to open it and literally, as I'm going to pull it up, it was a dry one on top because I hadn't opened it in a bit. I'm like, oh, that is pretty thick. Then I threw that one away
Starting point is 01:00:08 and then the second one, half or whatever. It's a little thick. Threw that one away and then the third one I needed, I lifted it. I thought, this one's going to fucking do something.
Starting point is 01:00:19 I live in a neighborhood now, so it's like I'm a little bit worried about blowing up somebody else's thing. Oh, no, it's not going to do that. I think when it gets down to the main area where they treat the water, that's when it's a i'm a little bit worried about blowing up somebody else's thing no it's not gonna do that i think when it gets down to like the main area where they treat the water that's when it's a problem yeah that's when you know i had probably a 45 second to a minute long conversation with myself about that on what i should do whether or not i'm a bad neighbor or not no you're good oh yeah well i did end up convincing myself that my book deserved it i've
Starting point is 01:00:39 actually doubled down and just i'll use two every time yeah you'll be fine but i fuck it you know it gets that water treatment they'll figure it out there okay it's biodegradable it says it should be good all right let's go to the phones um there is some things happening around the nfl covid testing of players and staff is no longer required for the nfl uh the way mike florio reported this was the nfl is saying that covid is over although it may not be. Oh, Mikey. Once again, I need to follow up. Pro Football Talk's Mike Florio, who we have a lot of respect for. What do you know that I don't know?
Starting point is 01:01:10 Because I'm going in the middle of 15,000 Ohioans tonight, and I'm high-fiving every one of them. So if you know something that I need to know that is life, I would like to be told this. But it does feel like this is now becoming a thing amongst uh all the leagues and the world you know elon musk obviously put out that thing hey if you're going to be an out of office worker you're fucking coming in for 40 hours so you're coming into the office into your cubicle sitting right next to somebody and guess what we don't have as much hand sanitizer as we
Starting point is 01:01:37 once had either you're gonna have to wash your own hands high five whoever you got to do that led to other things happening and obviously now the nfl says exact quote via tom palacero the arrow the man who is a neural link so when the memo goes out palacero reports that's right the nfl management council informed clubs tonight the covet surveillance testing of players and staff is no longer required regardless of an individual's vaccination status per sources that is the memo the sources that he said right here? It's just one source. It's the memo. From typewriter to Pellicero's brain. Boom!
Starting point is 01:02:09 Another step back towards normalcy after NFL-NFLPA protocols were suspended in March. And obviously, we decided, shout out to Mitt, I believe, or Foxy, to use Aaron Rodgers celebrating there. And I think this is in Chicago when he said, I fucking own you. He's in the middle of celebrating there.
Starting point is 01:02:25 This would indicate the biggest league in the world. People who have, you know, I think government currently looking at them and looking into everything they got going on. And they always will because how much money they bring in and how spotlighted they are. They're saying COVID's over, AJ. So, AJ, huh? Is it official?
Starting point is 01:02:44 I get to be in person for the 300th COVID is dead celebration? Say the word, bud. What word is that? Well, it's a couple words. You know. Oh, no, I can't say that. Say it. It's three words.
Starting point is 01:03:01 I'm not saying that. One exclamation point. Say it. Don't let that fear monger Dr. Florio get in your head. Say it. It's three words. I'm not saying that. One exclamation point. Say it. Don't let that fear monger Dr. Florio get in your head. Say it. So you're sitting here telling me that COVID is dead? Or? Say it.
Starting point is 01:03:14 Say it. Three words. Don't be a mark. Tell me the other three words. We. Oh. We. You think it's a we thing?
Starting point is 01:03:22 Yeah. Beats. It takes all of us. Okay. Did we really beat COVID? No. That's a we thing? Yeah. Beats. Takes all of us. Okay. Did we really beat COVID? No, that's not. That's not what we worked for. That's not what we worked for.
Starting point is 01:03:31 The NFL has this. We beat COVID? Yeah! Yeah! It was a question. We did it! We did it! We did it!
Starting point is 01:03:38 We did it! We did it! We did it! Woo! Let's go, huh? Victory! That video, by the way, of you celebrating with the crowd was awesome. Thank you.
Starting point is 01:03:49 Thank you. Foxy did great work there. And that is how the crowd should feel right now. Because basically, Goodell said, I got a big brain. I got a bunch of degrees. We got a lot of money, a lot of contacts. We know doctors that you don't know. And we have suspended all COVID-related shit.
Starting point is 01:04:04 Basically, Goodell said... We beat COVID. Here's to us. Hey. It's us. We lost a lot of great people, honestly. Too many. It was sad.
Starting point is 01:04:17 Changed our world. Yeah. Drastically. It's gone now. Never to be spoken of again, right? Woo! Okay, yes. You said it. From your never to be spoken of again right woo AJ yes you said it
Starting point is 01:04:26 from your lips to our ears I was asking a question actually and happiness in our hearts AJ right we finally did it baby Lourda to all of you
Starting point is 01:04:37 cheers thank you baby Lourda we fucking beat COVID dude hey fuck yeah woo man it tasted good. That was maybe the most delicious green tea sip
Starting point is 01:04:50 I've ever taken in my life. Across all drinks. You got all the mulching rocks out of there yesterday. Wow, that was tough. I was getting my teeth on the strip yesterday while I was drinking this thing with Kevin Weeks. I didn't even think about wiping off the bottom. I was like, oh, this will be fun a little bit. Anyways, there's no COVID in here.
Starting point is 01:05:06 No, no, no. That's right. But will they test for COVID if someone has symptoms? Nope. Sounds like it's no. It's on your own? Hey, you got flu? We don't know.
Starting point is 01:05:14 You got COVID? Ah, it's on you. Just don't go around your friends here. Yeah. You feel like shit, stay home. Which is kind of what it's been since the beginning. Although AJ gives that look because if he was to ever miss work because he didn't feel good, he would feel like a terrible person. Well, you talked about it before you went into the facility and they were basically
Starting point is 01:05:31 just like, no, just go home. Yeah. Yeah, because I had the flu. When? Maybe a little bit more of the flu. When? I forget what year it was. Oh, they told you.
Starting point is 01:05:38 Yeah, if you come in super sick, you get sent home. Well, yeah, they would not even let me. They're like, yeah, turn around and go home right now. This is pre-COVID. Yeah, this is maybe my third year in the NFLfl fourth year in the nfl they're like hey listen we don't need whatever the fuck has you looking the way you you look terrible i'm like thank you i've been pissing puking and shitting so thank you appreciate that so but the question is moving forward when somebody is sick and misses practice or they miss a game for an illness, are we still going to say non-COVID-related illness? Did you just get bopped because of the announcement we just made?
Starting point is 01:06:12 That was one of the biggest parts of our show's history there, and you just left right in the middle of it. It was an official. Hey, we've pump-faked that celebration for a long time. And he missed that? He missed it? Yeah, he's gone. He's gone. Listen, when we don't go to break at the end of an hour
Starting point is 01:06:25 and we just roll through to the next hour, my bladder can't handle it. Oh, yeah, I'm sorry. I did that the first hour. I accidentally did it beforehand before we even started. So I understand where you're at. But, hey, I don't know if you got a chance to hear or not. We did officially celebrate we beat COVID. I stayed for it.
Starting point is 01:06:39 Oh, did you? And then as soon as the celebration was over. We had a couple afterwards. Yeah, a couple victory laps. We really took the tractor another round on this. I've been celebrating that for months. Well, so have we. But I guess it is official now at this point.
Starting point is 01:06:52 But yeah, whenever guys miss games, it would just be announced still as COVID or flu or whatever. Food poisoning. Food poisoning. Strep throat. E. coli like Hasselbeck had. Bingo. Staff. You don't want staff.
Starting point is 01:07:04 Hopefully not. That happened. Wrestlers. No, didn't somebody?. Bingo. Staff. You don't want staff. Hopefully not. That happened. Wrestlers. No, didn't somebody? They had it in Bucks locker room. A lot of players have had some issues with staff. They sued the team. Cleveland and Tampa Bay, it happened.
Starting point is 01:07:13 Charles Bentley. Hey, I assume it happened in Green Bay where somebody would tell a story about, oh, a guy got staff, he sued, did the whole thing. That was always like. I know guys that missed a year, missed seasons because they got staff. And money comes on the other side of that. You get that through like the tub, like the ice baths? It's like bacteria, and you've got to keep surfaces clean.
Starting point is 01:07:31 And obviously, nasty, sweaty athletes around a training room. You just have to make sure you clean everything up. I do believe the trainers took it as a shot at them, right? If you got it, yeah, because it was a big deal. Staff was, when I was playing, for sure a big thing. Because Charles Bentley's career was ended. He's a center from Ohio State, went to Cleveland, was great, and then got staff in his knee and just kept eating away at his knee.
Starting point is 01:07:52 And if you don't get it right away, you can lose lifts. Wipe the machines down. Go wipe your machines down. Yeah. Well, Trent Dilfer's got that. Yeah, that's great. That beats anything. Yeah, that beats COVID and Mersa.
Starting point is 01:08:04 And Broncos had it. Well, the Bronite. That beats anything. Yeah, that beats COVID and MERS. And Broncos had it. Well, the Broncos social media team needs to fucking tighten up. Oh, my God. I am so juiced. AJ? I had 12 different people send me that Russ pump-up video, too. So a dozen people sent it. Why'd they all send it to you, AJ?
Starting point is 01:08:19 Because they're like, hey, you're a Broncos fan now, obviously. I said, yes. Is that what all 12 people that sent it to you? I feel so bad for Russ in that situation. Me too. And the lady, and I've been there, when she's like, let's go Broncos, or whatever you say.
Starting point is 01:08:30 Go Pack Go. Broncos, let's ride. Yeah, because that's Davis Stadium. Like how you do it. I'm like, either way, okay, do fans like, whenever it cuts to the video, it's like, kids, kids, kids. You're third down, guys, get up.
Starting point is 01:08:41 Yeah, it's the best part of the game. It's kids. All right, I stand corrected, my bad. No, but every team does it. Every team does it. It's all for kids. Yeah, because my kids would probably be like, oh, cool. Here we go.
Starting point is 01:08:51 Yeah, and I think it's also trying to teach fans how you're supposed to act in certain times. I think it is for kids. Like, hey, third down. Right? A lot of guys go, hey, third down. Yeah, they're trying to educate the crowd. Yeah, boom. Like, hey, you're supposed to make noise here.
Starting point is 01:09:03 That makes sense. I think that's what it all is for, for in-house entertainment and for environment control, if you will. But to post it with all... I mean, that was... Do you think Russ wanted it posted? No way. Or do you think Russ legit's like, yeah, yeah, killed it. Nailed it.
Starting point is 01:09:20 Hold on. He did kill it. Hold on. He did kill it, but he was asked to do something. YouTube. Hold on. He did kill it. Hold on. He did kill it, but he was asked to do something. You too. Very difficult. How many videos and TikToks and whatever do we have to see of Russ, and you don't think that this was all his idea?
Starting point is 01:09:34 Well, they shouldn't listen to him then. They're a billion-dollar operation. This was Team 3. I don't think this was. You mean to do that? Team 3 saw that and was so pissed. Yeah. And he said, do it with me with a green screen background
Starting point is 01:09:45 so people can put me in any situation in the world doing this. Put me on a TikTok. Do whatever you need to do. That's what we should have got, by the way. That should be. We should have Russell Wilson going, Broncos Nation, let's ride. Broncos Nation, let's ride. He was selling out for that.
Starting point is 01:10:05 Yeah. They was going all in. And it was only supposed to be one clip, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, to everybody. And then the show is seven different variations. That's him being a thespian. Yeah. And buying in and trying to make the Broncos better.
Starting point is 01:10:17 And that social media team was like, this will get good interaction. Anytime the quote tweets are tenets, the retweets, not great. Yeah, we know from past experience, that person's getting fired, and whoever the Team 3 guy is, he is the new social media guy of the Broncos, or girl. Honestly, though, I think every team is hiring social media people. Every team knows that this is the thing.
Starting point is 01:10:40 I do believe there should be some sort of like, hey, here's what the internet roasts our team for. Let's try not to feed it. You know, because Tua had to talk about this. Tua had to talk about the deep ball just yesterday in a presser. And Ann, who is Miami Dolphins PR, who was here, who set up the conversation with us with Coach Mike McDaniel. Shout out to Ann. She was actually referencing it because, you know,
Starting point is 01:11:05 it's an interesting thing because when the Miami Dolphins post a video, that's the team being like, all right, here's what we have, here's what we are. But, like, you get a good shot, it has slow-mo on it, but you're immediately just dropping it right into the, oh, Tua can't throw a fucking ball far at all. And then it just goes and goes and goes. And then you have to answer questions like this. Tua actually had to speak
Starting point is 01:11:27 about it yesterday at a press conference in the middle of OTAs. Yeah, if you've seen the third to the last play we had, I don't know if I could throw the ball downfield still. But by my account, I think that might have been a touchdown to Tyreek. If not, then he scored two plays after that to Tyreek. So, however you wanna write down any of that to social media or whatever outlets you guys are with, you do so. Can you talk about your timing overall with Tyreek and
Starting point is 01:11:57 is there a play outside of that that stuck out today that you think you guys are shows your timing? Yeah, well, I mean's it's pretty cool having a guy like Tyreek but you have other guys that are you know extremely talented very fast as well you know that kind of help out with with Tyreek being open you have Waddle you have you know Kosicki so everyone has to cover every part of the field and I mean you know it should be a lot easier to get these guys the ball. Although you know playing against our defense, it's different stuff.
Starting point is 01:12:29 With this team, from him wearing hoodies and sweatshirts and sweatknots, you can mimic that. And then even the music, he lets you guys pick music by being the player of the day. Just talk about that and just being in tune with that. Yeah, swaggy. That's what I gotta say about Coach Mike. I call him Mystic Mac. Just like Conor McGregor, this dude, he loves to predict stuff. So call him Mystic Mac. But you know, the respect that he has in the locker room is tremendous.
Starting point is 01:13:00 Tua, you mentioned earlier about the narrative about the arm strength. What do you think about that? That every time somebody talks about you, it's he can't throw deep. Yeah. Well, like I said, all the bad news I hear from Ann, you know, Ann tells me, hey, I don't know if you heard about this, but they say that. I'm like, why would you want to bring that up? But she brings it up just, you know, just so I'm aware with the questions that you guys are going to ask me. For me, it's just zone that out. I mean, we come out to practice. Everyone else, Twitter warriors, keyboard warriors, whatever you want to call them,
Starting point is 01:13:36 they're not out here practicing with us working hard. I don't know if you guys recorded that last one to Tyreek, but... I don't know if you guys recorded that last one to Tyreek, but... I don't know about you, but that looked like money. I don't know about you, but it looked like money. How come they're not posting that? That's the clips that we need to see posted by the Dolphins' Twitter account. I think they are, and I think Dolphins understand that, and I think the Ravens had a situation with Sammy Watkins and Lamar Jackson,
Starting point is 01:14:02 a similar thing. I just, you know, and Foxy immediately upon this conversation happening starts shaking his head because he is an editor and a camera person and everything like that. When you get these jobs, it's big jobs. Teams need them. Content is great. You have access that nobody else has. But also I think there has to be a little self-awareness on what's potentially being said.
Starting point is 01:14:21 Russell Wilson got murdered for that. Slaughtered. Let's ride. And Tua got murdered for the throw. It shouldn't be coming from your own team, I think, is what we're all saying. And I think it's just people fulfilling content. Like, oh, I did my job today. I put a video out today.
Starting point is 01:14:34 And it makes them look terrible. Yeah, and there's not even a thought of that. AJ, can we run this Russell Wilson one just to hear your full thoughts on it? I know 12 people. Why do you believe 12 people sent this video to you, you think, AJ? Because they know I like inspirational videos. We gonna run it?
Starting point is 01:14:54 Let's run it. Let's ride. Let's ride. Best one there. Broncos country. Let's ride. That's the one. Yeah, that's the one. Perfect. One more time, Broncos country, let's ride Best one there Let's ride That's the one Yeah That's the one One more time
Starting point is 01:15:06 Broncos country Let's ride Broncos country Let's ride Not as fast Broncos country Let's ride Okay
Starting point is 01:15:13 Yeah Broncos country Modulation Let's ride Broncos country Let's ride Is he the acting teacher? Dude
Starting point is 01:15:22 That's what I'm saying Very impressive But You're just feeding the fodder of what Russell Wilson has talked about by his haters on the internet. Shouldn't be coming from the team, I don't think. If somebody else wanted to post that, all good. Sure. But if it's coming from the team, that's tough.
Starting point is 01:15:37 Okay, but did whoever posted from the team, I guess they think, hey, this is a cool behind-the-scenes look at what we do? Yeah, I think so. That's what the thought is. Okay. He didn't even do a good job at it either. Whoa, whoa, hey, this is a cool behind-the-scenes look at what we do. Yeah, I think so. That's what the thought is. Okay. He didn't even do a good job at it either. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. See, but Tony, I actually think those people are going to be-
Starting point is 01:15:49 Broncos country! See, no. That's right! That's not the video. That should be the one. No, you don't know the video, though. The video is a full lead-up, and he's just tagging it at the end. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 01:16:04 Broncos country, let's ride. Yeah, exactly. I don't know. You know what I mean? Broncos country. That's right. Yeah, exactly. I don't know. You digs one more? That was unbelievable. We need two different versions. You need to modulate like he did high and low
Starting point is 01:16:12 in the same one. Listen, I didn't fucking flub so just use the first one. No, yeah. Not a single flub fucking send it. I understand, but he had to do
Starting point is 01:16:19 six different ones. Yeah, if you nail the first one you don't have to do a sixth. He was nailed. They well nailed it. I thought it was one of those ones where he's going to be on the big jumbotron in front of the stadium. That's what it is. Just like real quick.
Starting point is 01:16:31 That's what that is? Yes. That's what it is. I think it's a gif. And I don't think they're using the audio in any of this. And they're going to put a title over him saying, Broncos country, let's ride. And they're not using any of it. That's why it's not a gif.
Starting point is 01:16:42 That's for the scoreboard usually. No way. I'm pretty. I mean, the sound's going happen i think it has to right that's why he did so many different inflections of it what if it's team three making us an nft that he could sell okay well then why are the broncos really behind the scenes hey this is real because broncos worth more money nft too let's get to a break can we just look out for the fucking players on the team yeah it's gonna continue to happen i don't we just look out for the fucking players on the team? It's going to continue to happen. I don't see anything wrong. I mean, the team can't be putting this
Starting point is 01:17:07 out there if Russ isn't giving them the blessing, but I just figured it was like, hey, we got fucking six different ways. The Yankees would never do this. You guys pick which one you like the best. So if it's the second, you know, Broncos country, let's rock. Like, if that's the one you like the most... I don't think... I think it's the fifth one. Which one do you like the most? I think the fifth one. Broncos country.
Starting point is 01:17:25 Let's rock. That's my personal favorite. The last one, I the fifth one. Which one do you like the most? I think the fifth one. Broncos country. Let's rock. That's my personal favorite. That one's good. The last one, I think, nailed it. Which one did you like the most? Broncos country! That was my favorite. Let's rock!
Starting point is 01:17:36 What about you, Connor? Which one was your favorite? The last one. Which one was that? Broncos country. What's that? That's right. Very sincere, right?
Starting point is 01:17:43 Yeah. He was running through all the emotions that you have to do in dear uh acting classes exactly let's do this one confident broncos country that's right the body language is the best part i thought he was mike lowry let's be super super what if you cried in one of them did him cry well we don't know that's when he was close i think that was the he has range we know that lucrative acting career we know that now he's already used in the Entourage movie. Yeah. Same with the other guy that actually said that.
Starting point is 01:18:08 That's right. Both of them. They're doing Russ wrong. I don't like it. He loves it. He crushed those. He had to be. They have to okay it, don't you think?
Starting point is 01:18:17 With at least somebody in team three? Yeah, but, but, but, but. Oh, he's. Okay. See what I'm saying? I was about to say, looky, looky, looky, looky. You think Russ should be the one okay in it No absolutely not
Starting point is 01:18:26 Whoever is posting for their account Mr. Aleem oh my god I can't have it That one's fire That's what they should have him do actually Agreed for the Jumbotron Probably just said let's ride after they fucking came up to him Yeah it's good let's ride
Starting point is 01:18:41 Let's get to a break Let's ride Let's ride That's's get to a break. Let's ride. Let's ride. Let's ride! That's what he should have done. We should actually send that to the Broncos. Like, hey, you should probably redo it this way. I mean, Diggs did nail it.
Starting point is 01:18:56 Which one was your favorite? Ty's. No, Ty didn't do it. It was Russ. Run that one more time. I like when he modulates. Broncos country. Let's ride.
Starting point is 01:19:04 Run that one more time. Will you please tell us which one Broncos country. Let's ride. Run that one more time. Will you please tell us which one? Oh, yeah. I will. All right. Can we run that? I can break down each one probably. Oh, are you an actor?
Starting point is 01:19:11 No, how I feel about him. Like each one, like he. Okay. Okay. Well, we don't have a thing for you to sit on this little small camera side here. I don't need it. All right. Well, you should come to the office more, by the way.
Starting point is 01:19:21 It's great to see you. It's good to see you. Let's go ahead and run that thing. Let's ride. Oh. Just warming up. and run, I think. Let's ride. Oh, let's ride. Oh. Let's ride.
Starting point is 01:19:29 Oh, she cut him off. Yeah, I know, that was his best one. One more time, Broncos country, let's ride.
Starting point is 01:19:34 Broncos country, let's ride. He takes instruction well. Broncos country, let's ride. There we go. Broncos country, let's ride.
Starting point is 01:19:42 That's it for me. The last one. Hold on. He's like trying to seduce somebody. Let's ride. Yeah. Oh, that last one. Fire. That was country. Let's run. That's it for me. The last one. Hold on. He's like trying to seduce somebody. Let's run. Yeah. Oh, that last one. Sierra loves that one.
Starting point is 01:19:49 Sierra loves that last one. All right, let's get to a break. We'll be back. Just social media teams, we appreciate your work. You're giving us access that nobody else has. You're making content. It's not easy. We appreciate it.
Starting point is 01:19:59 But also, have a little tiny bit of awareness on what could potentially get buried and what could not. Just check with the people that you're putting out there first. Well, maybe Russell paid that, though. That's what we're saying. Yeah, Russell loved that. Every second of that. It's good with me.
Starting point is 01:20:14 Put it out. Let's ride. Let's ride. What if he quote tweeted it with a selfie video? Are we sure that hasn't happened? You're right. We'll keep an eye on it during the break. Because he might say Broncos country, but he could have also said like Broncos social.
Starting point is 01:20:31 Like he might use it for everybody. Broncos chefs. The responses I saw to my tweet saying, well, when I quote tweeted it, was a lot of that. Let's ride is not what any Broncos fan says. I guess they all say something sad. Buck them up. Don't they do the
Starting point is 01:20:47 horse? They do something else, I guess that is like Broncos country. I don't know. Yeah, what? Fucking mount up! That'd be sick. Could you imagine, Russ? Broncos country! Mount up. That would be sweet. What are we doing? Why are they doing that? I hope they're watching.
Starting point is 01:21:03 Well, I don't know if they're going to change the entire marketing. They should. We have to tell them to because Mount Up is the one. Do you know how much money NFL teams pay? Wait, so Let's Ride is what Russ went from Go Hawks to Let's Ride, correct? Yeah, bingo. I don't know if he created it or if the Broncos created it and told him, hey, this is – No, he created it.
Starting point is 01:21:19 There's no way anyone creates his taglines. He creates his taglines, I feel like. Go Hawks was created before him. University of Iowa, pal. He made it what it is, though, I feel like. Go Hawks was created before him. University of Iowa, pal. He made it what it is, though, we should say. I agree. Just like your boy. Your boy, John Wayne Gacy, may have killed people in a different state, but your state is what groomed him.
Starting point is 01:21:33 Your town, Waterloo. Go Hawks. He made it popular. You dare say fucking Russ popularized Go Hawks. He did. What do you mean? Who else has heard it? I know it from Russ. Me too. It's an Iowa thing. Always will did. What do you mean? Who else has heard it? I know it from Russ. Me too. It's an Iowa thing. Always will be. What's the chant?
Starting point is 01:21:50 Go Hawks. I-O-W-A. Go Hawks. That's a good chant. That's it? Yeah, he knows. What about Minnesota? What's Minnesota's? Who hates Iowa? We hate Iowa. That's a Minnesota chant. I was unaware. Losers.
Starting point is 01:22:06 Hey, Go Hawks. Go Haw a Minnesota side. I was unaware. Losers. It's cool. Hey, go Hawks. Go Hawks, baby. Let's ride. Let's ride. The amount of money they pay marketing companies to come up with their campaigns for the year, obnoxious. NFL teams. Who decides?
Starting point is 01:22:18 That would be a tough position, though, for these social media people, okay? Wouldn't you be a little gun shy to post anything? Like, oh, is this going to be super corny and terrible or is this going to be awesome? You can figure it. You should be able to figure it out, kind of. I don't know if that's something you can learn, though, at social media school, which is a thing. Is there a thing? Yeah, it's a major. Yeah, and they're getting
Starting point is 01:22:36 jobs from old people. Who's teaching it? Like some 80-year-old person? Some person's never done it. It's Gary V. They just scroll through his posts. It might be just VCon. Probably. On repeat. But the olds that know nothing about it are getting duped into hiring the social media majors. Yeah. Who? And then the people, the olds have no clue if something's good or not.
Starting point is 01:22:55 They don't even know what Twitter is, let alone what they're posting. And then the way you can make numbers with impressions. Imagine the old seeing impressions. How many? 10 million impressions? Yeah. Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 01:23:05 That's more than a local TV ad. You're killing it. Thank you so much. You want to hire a team? Go ahead. All that tells you is the people that are in that social media world that are actually good, there's a lot of value. Your price should be very, very high.
Starting point is 01:23:19 If you're actually legit and you can grow the brand and make it not corny. Yes. The issue is the people that are good at it. Don't do it. They're not going to be doing it for an NFL team. They're going to be doing it for themselves. Yeah, I know. That is.
Starting point is 01:23:34 Of course. That's kind of the balance that you have to find in there. Whatever the case, there are great NFL social media teams. And I feel like they look out for the team's best interests at all times with their posts. Chargers. Got to be in synergy here. Got to be in the same thing. We're not trying to make our brand-new quarterback,
Starting point is 01:23:51 the new face of our team, look like a great actor. Yeah. That's right. I'm excited about his post-football career. Me too. He's going to dominate. He's going to get $375 million. Oh, year one.
Starting point is 01:24:06 Probably. Yeah. How about Aaron saying to Tom, you know, they asked about Tom's TV deal in that quarterback sit-down thing, and I didn't expect us to continue to talk like this, but in that quarterback sit-down thing with Ernie Johnson, talked about $375 million in the TV deal, you know. It was brought up.
Starting point is 01:24:21 And Tom talked about, you know, how he still, when he's done with the game, he wants to be able to give back to the game that's given him so much, you know, to the coaches that Tom talked about you know how he still when he's done with the game he wants to be able to give back to the game that's given him so much you know to the the coaches that I've got to learn from he complimented Bill Belichick and he complimented everybody and he said so just being able to give back to the game would be amazing and Aaron said have you ever been paid so much to give back and then next question happened you know it was it was an awkward good airline it's such a i mean yeah it was beautiful so that's aaron just listening to everything he's saying oh this is nice yeah this is really good i mean there's a i mean it's kind of a valid question there's a 400 million dollar price
Starting point is 01:24:53 tag on the other side of their play i do appreciate that that is real tom brady probably does feel like he's going to be given back to the sport and tom brady has to take in a somebody's gonna make money off of this so you gotta do it but But Aaron Rodgers was maybe one of the perfectly timed lines of the past couple weeks. And they all knew it couldn't be Drew Brees, so thank you, Tom. What? Well, what he's talking about is
Starting point is 01:25:14 Drew Brees working for Fubo TV next year. Thanks. Breaking news. I haven't heard about this. Jason Garrett's going to slaughter. Jason Garrett's going to do great for the Notre Dame. We'll talk about that on the other side. I'm only saying FuboTV, by the way, great platform.
Starting point is 01:25:31 I know nothing about him. Great platform. Beautiful. But the way people are talking about Drew Brees having no chance to ever do TV again unless he does it this year. He has four months to make a decision or he's done for life. Forever. It's like that is insane to think about.
Starting point is 01:25:44 His records are only going to get more impressive more years to by i mean there's a what's that carter or will they won't they all just get dumped and left in the past what i mean they're gonna there's more games now they aren't gonna get more impressive because so yeah but did you hear what we said about marino the other day with the 40 touchdown where like he was able to do it whenever it was boom sure but that's what they'll say about Drew. There's, what, five, six quarterbacks who are probably going to have more yards than him, more touchdowns.
Starting point is 01:26:09 AJ, will you text Drew and just ask him if he wants to be on TV or not? Like, what's the deal? Yeah, well, I don't know if you know this. I don't really have a... I don't know Drew like that. What do you mean? Hey, Con Man, you know,

Starting point is 01:27:26 Bad 666 today. I opened that first one. That's pretty good. That makes you a Hall of Famer. Yeah. I lost. Baseball, for sure. Best ever.
Starting point is 01:27:34 I mean, Tebow bad 226 in single A. That's right. People don't forget. That's not that bad. I don't think so either. Didn't he get bumped in the head? Yeah, his fielding percentage was 226, too, which was the bigger issue. Boom!
Starting point is 01:27:48 You remember that? Did he really like who was the guy in the match? I think it was even more embarrassing than the match because he was actually trying to catch it. I believe that it was. It nailed him right in the fucking head. Yeah, they bombed one off like a monster type thing, caromed off the wall, hit him right in the head. He looked like an absolute doofus trying to play. Tim's just trying to find his
Starting point is 01:28:08 ground out there. We've all seen it. It is not good. Well, Tim Tebow recognized that and he came back to play tight end. That's right. And that wasn't working out either. Couldn't block. Well, he was going to try to learn, see if he could. I thought he blocked the dude. I thought he did too. I thought he had good foot. Yeah, I was in 7 on 7.
Starting point is 01:28:24 Remember that first practice he had that one-handed catch? Hey, I've had some pretty good blocks in seven on seven too. Oh, yeah. Haven't I? AJ, you remember what I did to you in seven on seven? Well, fucking. I can't imagine you during like, because, yeah, kickers and putters don't do much.
Starting point is 01:28:38 We're watching. And just listening to you chirp everybody from the sidelines. Oh, super positive. That's what I'm saying. I would go out of my way to hustle, to run super fast out of bounds. I would try to knock into you and knock you down multiple times. You would not smoke me, okay? I've got my eyes afield out here.
Starting point is 01:28:56 I'm not going to hit you from behind a golf cart like those people were doing. I can't do that. But we would have to, yeah. Do quarterbacks ever throw the ball at you or in your direction? No, it wasn't all the time. Listen, I have a good feel for things. When something needs to be said, one energy feels like it needs to be brought. I mean, like good fun, though.
Starting point is 01:29:10 You know, all in fun. Yeah, I mean, I have a couple catches. You know, I have a couple catches on the sideline for sure. Remember, I had a punch out. Probably got a guy cut. Now that one is when I had to dial it back. I felt terrible. I really saw the repercussions of my actions take place.
Starting point is 01:29:24 That guy lost his jaw because I punched the ball. Is that guy alive now? We don't know. Works at Home Depot. Nah, I don't know. Hopefully he's still around. Probably put him on a downhill slide. I would assume there's other things he did wrong that made him get cut, but whenever they're watching a film and they saw my left
Starting point is 01:29:40 hand just punch it straight out and they're like, alright. It's probably going to send this guy home. Helmet in your hand. i think i was standing leg over other leg for sure helmet in this hand you know i think i even like tossed helmet to other hand and then calls out ball on the ground everybody's screaming ball on the ground like it's a big you know and then i was in the moment i got a pretty good pop out of me like you did to yourself earlier i I was like, that's a properly placed ball. That's a pretty good ball right there.
Starting point is 01:30:07 Then you saw the kid's face. Yeah, I saw the reaction. Oh, this guy fucking stinks. Can't win with it. And then, I don't even know if he's getting asked to play in the USFL. That'd be tough. What if the kid told you his parents are battling cancer, he's homeless? Well, hold on to the fucking ball.
Starting point is 01:30:26 Okay. Spoken like a true coach right there. But also, I need to work on that. I have one forced fumble in my... Yeah, we all do. Yeah, that should happen. Darius Leonard doing that now, becoming like a focal point. He's changing the game.
Starting point is 01:30:38 Changing the game. I mean, Peanut used to do it, obviously. The Peanut Punch. But he's changed how people tackle. I don't care. I am such a savage. I'm not worried about ever missing a tackle. First thing I'm doing is thinking about punching the hell out of that ball. I don't care. I am such a savage. I'm not worried about ever missing a tackle. First thing I'm doing is thinking about punching the hell out of that ball.
Starting point is 01:30:48 I don't care if I get run over doing it. It's awesome. And his arms. Yeah. He's a special guy to be able to do that. And he works on boxing, he says. So he's actually trying to do it. There's actual talent on where you're going to punch.
Starting point is 01:30:58 Because if you hit an elbow, that's a fucking broken. He has great accuracy. It's like fighters. Conor McGregor has great accuracy. I think he was born with that, and then he developed it over time, too. That's what I feel like with Darius. His accuracy is unbelievable. Full speed dude coming at me, going to run me over.
Starting point is 01:31:13 Okay, cool. Let me pause the beat, find out where the ball is, punch that guy, and wrap you at the same time. Oh, cool. Here we go. Let me find the angle to get in, which could be like this. Wow, also. And in slow-mo, it looks awesome.
Starting point is 01:31:27 I'm like, in real time, it's unbelievable what that is, really. It's crazy. I think it's six, seven. He does it when they're running at him. Of course, chasing guys down. He does it, guys running right at me. Here we go. All right, cool, cool.
Starting point is 01:31:40 Boom. That's awesome. Mine was the basketball. Yeah. It felt good. Cookies. Oh, yeah, yeah we know yeah yeah but immediately could have been elbow broken yeah yeah well that happened too like he i think it was against the jets the game that we were at he actually like basically tapped the face mask a little then got the forearm and then got the ball like was fine after he did it he's just punching he's punching in the sand like a fucking
Starting point is 01:32:05 karate kid is doing to build that thing up. Is it legal to have UFC gloves on? You could wear them, I bet. A lot of the... Yeah, linemen have pads. Yeah, I'm sure you could. That would be hilarious. UFC gloves are like six ounces, I think. Yeah, but it would have to be what?
Starting point is 01:32:21 Nike, Under Armour? Yeah, you would just have to have a proper logo. Yeah, you'd have to put a swoosh on that thing. But yeah. Oh, man. See be what Nike Under Armour. Yeah, you just have to slap the proper logo Yeah, you got to put a swoosh on that But yeah, oh man, you may be onto something on a flooded route there there Why yeah, you can wear them, but yeah, yeah, I don't even have to put a logo on or could use tape You imagine that I mean, I think that's a real thing How good did you feel with a with a tape over the back.
Starting point is 01:32:45 You can catch, right? Can you catch in those? Yeah. Yeah. If you're like a D lineman, why not wear these? If I'm D line, O line? Maybe linebacker, too. Why not?
Starting point is 01:32:57 Yeah. Yeah. Unless it takes away from you grabbing, which I don't think it does. I wouldn't want to play in fingerless gloves like that. Well, your fingers are disgusting. They couldn't get in here. My fingers would be cold, man. Checkball.
Starting point is 01:33:11 Oh, yeah. Send them. Patty Maroon. You know what I mean? Get thrown, too, if you need to. Maybe quarterbacks wear it. For sure. Now we're talking. Boom. Boom. Boom. Throw the ball. That'd be great. I almost feel like I got more dexterity with these things. I order? Boom. Break a hand. Boom. Boom. Bang. Throw the ball.
Starting point is 01:33:25 That'd be great. I almost feel like I got more dexterity with these things. I think you do. What, does ref cost? What? There you go. Maybe in the fucking money. Tony Carrente's going to wear them?
Starting point is 01:33:34 Fucking hate. Let me back that ass up in an itinerant. Cassius Marshall. You see, he responded to Tony Carrente. Oh, yeah? I think it was running him over. Yes. Ran his ass over.
Starting point is 01:33:44 That's a comeback. In a car. The caption said was running him over. Yes, ran his ass over. That's a comeback. In a car. The caption said, looking for that ref that backed that shit up on me on Monday night. And then all of a sudden, found him.
Starting point is 01:33:53 Yep. It was a good joke, but also pretty deep. Yeah. That was a pretty deep cut there. Calm down. All right, let's get the fuck out of here.
Starting point is 01:34:00 Hammer down snacks. I gotta go. I gotta go to Columbus, Ohio. I can't fathom how much toxicity is about the osmosis into my body getting into the heart of ohio good luck it's gotta be a quick flight right i think so 30 40 minutes um before we get out of here i do feel like there has to be some sort of presentation because of what we're experiencing right now is not normal. Mr. Aaron James Hawk, the Wikipedia-legitimized college football national champion,
Starting point is 01:34:34 Super Bowl champion, Ryder Cup champion, COVID survivor. That's right. That hasn't been displayed on the table here on the desk for some time because you're busted in half.

Starting point is 01:35:19 I mean, I don't even know. Oh, no, yeah. It's going to be impossible. Yeah, you leave that. You got to leave it in the case. You don't show it. I think it's probably worth 100K. Especially because it's two scale.
Starting point is 01:35:27 Everything is two scale. The only thing that's different is there's no busted fingers. He's got the chop house hands, you know, kind of full extendo. You always look wonky, though. Look at the flow. Dude, look how awesome you look. I mean, what is on my neck? That's probably a fucking neck collar, dude.
Starting point is 01:35:43 Why don't you ever wear one? Maybe you'd be safe. I did in high school. I wore a cowboy collar. When you were in eighth grade? I wore a cowboy collar through my sophomore year in college, I believe. Put you right there next to it. Perfect for you.
