TG 144.

so profesh with the stand.
Who is he?
I like the stand.
I like the stand. I like the stand. It gets me in my baseball
broadcaster form.
It's, uh, honestly,
dude, holding the mic
for over an hour like I was,
I would get done with the show.
And then my hand would be
frozen.
Got to get Tommy John surgery.
That ass.
For real.
Triceps never been more sore.
Arthritis fame, dude.
Why is his hand like that?
Why is Papal's hand like that?
Oh, he just recorded a stupid podcast every week for two hours.
He did a podcast that wasn't about sports, your hand on Easter.
Halliday mentioned.
Hey, son.
He's got podcast hand.
It's just a thing that happened in like 2020.
It's a lot of podcasts going on.
podcast hand.
Don't shake
grandpa's left hand.
You know he did that
podcast for a long time.
Don't shake
grandpa's left hand.
That's literally
going to be our life.
That's our life.
I mean,
it is.
And we can't hear
and we have a crippled hand.
Oh my God.
Was he in the war?
These guys podcast.
They called themselves
the clubhouse.
You wouldn't understand.
Not bad for Becca.
Not bad.
for a crippled guy.
Dude,
speaking of that,
though,
actually I did want to talk
about this.
I threw my back out.
Hot guys with bad backs.
One podcast right here,
baby.
Dude.
What happened?
I have no idea.
Swing.
That's the damnedest thing.
I thought you're just saying
pushing somebody on the sled,
like pushing a sled.
Oh.
Oh,
like a football one?
No,
Remember your offensive line coach or just your running backs coach would like stand on the back of a sled and like try to balance while like four guys are pushing it.
I always wanted to do that.
Did you ever do that?
Yeah, it was so funny.
Watching the most unathletic running backs coach on the back of that thing.
I'm like, wait, did he play?
How does he know what he's talking about?
Why does it seem like the running backs coach was always the one that's like you shouldn't have that position?
because I know why exactly because I've been a running back coach
it's the guy that knows the least amount about football
is the running backs coach
dude if you don't know shit about football and you're just like
the guy like the players like kind of like you gotta have an energy guy
D-line or running backs
you don't have to know anything hey D-line just go
that's all you got to hey running backs
Just run.
Hold on to the ball.
Just down on to the ball.
It's pretty much it, dude.
Pretty much it.
Not a lot of like formation stuff.
Like running backs are just always in the same spot.
Like you don't got no shit, really.
But that just put the running backs coach.
Put a boxing glove.
Put a boxing glove on the end of a stick.
And then punch the hell out of them for ball security.
Running backs coach.
I had that.
I had that
I had that shovel stick with a boxing glove
at the end of it at Cathedral
Brough
just beating this shit out of kids' arms
They're 14
I'm like sorry dog
Not a local sports podcast
Never has been
Yeah bro I don't know what happened
I don't know what happened to my back
I say here's what happened
Here what okay so I don't know what happened
But here's the timeline
Thursday
I
wake up, I'm feeling kind of, you know, a little stiff, a little sore, but like, that's
nothing, nothing crazy.
It's pretty par for the course being almost 32, having two little kids, chasing them around
always and like, yeah, you just wake up and you're like, eh, yeah.
Didn't feel that great.
But then I got outside and I started doing yard work.
I was like mowing the grass and I was doing, uh, I was weed eating.
and it started to really kick in and get worse then.
So by the time I finished yard work,
I was like stiff guy that couldn't move his neck even.
Pain in the lower back,
but like couldn't even turn my head without a hurting.
So I'm like walking in to the house and rise like,
okay,
you need to,
you need to like sit and lay down because you obviously messed up your back again.
So I'm like,
damn, dude.
So I have a golf outing on Friday that I was supposed to play in.
And I'm like, dude, I got a rest up in rehab for this big outing.
I got these, these Purdue folks.
I'm supposed to make a good impression with, golf with.
And it got to be about three o'clock on Thursday.
And I was like, I can't, I can't do it.
I got to tell these guys I can't do it.
I can't do it.
So I had to back out of that golf outing.
Are you popping a leave?
Yeah, dude.
I was the heating pad, ice, Tylenol, heating pad, ice, Tylenol,
eating pad, ice tile and all.
And dude, it just got worse.
And Friday, I mean,
these dudes, they're like in their 50s
that was gonna be playing with.
And I think that they really thought
it was just a shitty excuse.
I really think they didn't buy it.
And I was like, I promised, dude.
Those guys have had back problems for 30 years, bro.
They're like this guy, bro.
First time bad back.
I remember my first bad back.
I was like, I promise.
I can't even hardly.
move. Like I would just be, I would bring down the energy of a group. Because, you know, like,
if you're golfing with your, your boys in one of those and you, uh, you know, can just ride along in
a cart and like get out every now and then, pull a little bit of that, like, whatever, they'll
give you a hard time, but they'll still have fun. When you're with a bunch of guys that you
have only met a handful of times and you're the guy that is holding up the game, that's bad news.
That's bad news. So I just, I said, hey, I'm saving you guys.
I'm also saving myself.
I got to sit this one out, boys.
Dude, you don't want to be Captain
Complain on the golf course, you know what I mean?
That's another thing.
Sergeant stretch out between every hole.
Making weird faces the whole time.
Hey, you good?
Schmidt, are you good?
Yeah, I just got a kink.
Doing all of them, dude.
You got Batman neck on the golf course.
Yeah, I've been Bruce Wayne for four days.
I'm just now starting to be able to get a little bit of range of motion.
I haven't said range of motion more than I have in the last three days of my entire life.
Don't push it too hard, bro.
I've had a bad back day.
I had such a bad back day.
I didn't do anything the whole day either.
Plans canceled.
I had spasms.
I'm like, am I Rick Smith in 98?
How the hell did I back spasms, dude?
Like I'm not even doing anything
We can talk about backs forever bro
Did you ever have
Because my folks hooked me up with this
That like nerve
The nerve
Regeneration type of
Like electric
Pats
They slap on your back and they shock you
Yeah you'd slap them on your back
Wherever it is and you turn that up
And it would just be
right where it is.
I had that on my hamstring.
And boy, this dude cranked it up so hard one time.
Like I thought he was fucking with me a little bit.
Like it was insane.
I went to this rehab place, slapped for him.
My hamstring jolted me.
And I was like, ah!
And I was like, dude.
But I think it did kind of help.
Looky.
Yeah, totally.
They hooked me up with that.
And then I did it yesterday morning.
I had a full rehab day, dude.
You would have thinking, like, I was playing out my mind, like, what the report.
would be saying, you know, if they were like reporting on my, my health status, you know,
like, well, it's probably going to be a game time decision for Molanaro, but he's really giving it
it as all. He's been rehabbing 24 hours a day, hasn't stopped waking up at 3 a.m. putting the
regenerations on his back, then doing heating pad, ice work, ice bath, constant stretching out.
Like, that's what was getting me through. I was trying to do all of it, dude, because I got a big
week, man. I got, I got some,
I had some filming that I had to do,
and then I have another golf outing on Thursday. I got
to be back and ready to go. I'm going
to Chicago on Friday. I got to get
my shit ready. How to
happen? Weed Wacking.
No, you know what I'm
blaming it on? I'm blaming it on.
I'm blaming it on picking up mulch.
Who hasn't
slipped a disc picking up mulch
before? I feel like every
time I could have been 15
years old. I had a bad back
landscaping. Everybody
has a bad back landscaping, dude.
This is a bad back podcast.
Hey, can we not make
bags of mulch just
lighter? Just
make more of them and make them lighter.
Why just have to be the heaviest thing
and the worst possible sad sack
ever? I hate it,
dude. The smell, everything about
mulch, the word
mulch. I'm like,
I don't want to do this anymore. There's got to be
alternative.
I'm like,
yo,
can we get some
chopped up tires
for,
we got to have
mulch?
Mulch.
Ew, bro.
Hey,
but if it was like
a dairy queen
blizzard called
mulch,
first one to buy it.
Dude,
another thing
at the clubhouse bar.
Another thing
of the clubhouse bar,
we don't have
landscaping mulch
out,
we don't have
landscaping mulch
out in front.
The landscaping for us
is just the
little chopped up
football field tire
pieces.
from your old high school
like not even like a cool
yeah
like going turf
the shit that you find in your shoes
oh yeah
walk on a football field for one second
your shoes are now
Michelin tires I'm like yo
never mind
dude all the guys get home from our bar
they just have like tire pieces
all over the floor and their house
their wives just go nuts
you were at the clubhouse again
weren't you I can tell when you
you go to the clubhouse.
See, you have old high school football
tire all over the house now.
Yeah, every bar has their calling
card, like has a distinct smell
or, you know,
something that you bring home food-wise.
That's ours. That's how the ladies
know, the non-burpee girls. That's how they
figure it out. If I find one
more of these fucking pebbles.
He sounds like a, he smells
like a freaking jamboree every time
he comes home from the clubhouse.
Oh god
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Comes in singing a fight song
Talking about
Colt Brennan
I don't know who these guys are
I'm sick of it
So pissed off
Oh yeah
By the way
Follow these guys LOL on Instagram
Oh shit all that
Yeah
Yeah
Bangin a account
I mean, to be honest, why wouldn't...
It's my favorite account on the internet.
Wait till we start making memes and stuff.
It's a wrap.
I can't wait.
And it is fun.
I missed this kind of freedom and flexibility
of just having an account
to just post whatever, whenever.
Yeah.
It's like on our own pages,
you know how it is.
It's like, hey, you know,
you want it to do well.
You want people to like it.
But on these guys,
it's just like a clubhouse language
and you're just posting
because you're like, that's for them.
It's for that.
All these repos I've been wanting to share, like,
I don't know where to put them.
I'm like,
I can't really just put this picture of Ricky Williams
on my, like, actual personal story.
It, like, doesn't have any context.
It doesn't.
It's like, the title of the thing is, like,
peak or, like, NFL Reebok era uniforms.
I'm like, I can't put that.
That's a clubhouse thing.
The people wouldn't understand.
It's going on these guys, LOL.
Follow.
Follow it.
subscribe to the show, wherever you get your pods, Apple Podcasts, follow it, YouTube, you know the deal.
But I think, not that this is a rival, or not that this is a uniform podcast, I think that,
you've seen like these rivalry uniforms that the NFL is coming out with. Yeah. Yeah, let's talk.
I think the dolphins won. I think they're getting like the teal blue. The Aqua. I saw that too.
It's kind of scaring me because, like, they're changing the,
the colors of the team's logos, you know what I mean,
before they reveal the uniforms.
And it's, it's, it's giving,
it's giving like,
Madden team builder.
It's giving, it's giving like,
hey, a high school used an NFL team and change the colors to the high
school colors.
You know what I mean?
And I'm like, I can't, I can't just look at the like,
the white Seahawks logo.
I don't know.
It's kind of weird to me.
I really hope it's like all good
but it's scaring me a little bit.
I think it'll be fine.
It has potential to really be a disaster, but...
That Cardinals Desert Tan, though,
if they do that,
got a cop.
Could be crazy.
I think that comes out.
I think all those come out on my birthday, actually.
Because I noticed that they're all like 828.
And I was like,
fucking smack my ass and give me a birthday cake.
Give me an awful birthday cake.
Such a birthday thing to happen.
Oh, something always happens like that on your birthday.
Not your birthday personally, but like, well, probably.
But every time I have a birthday, I'm like, oh, that's today?
Oh, my God.
Every time I have a birthday.
Once a year.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Well, you know what I mean?
But it like lands on your birthday and you're like, how the hell?
Okay.
Yeah, I went to a, um, I had a five-year-old birthday party that,
had to go to
with the bad I was just so
I was so suburban dad
on Saturday I had a bad back
I was gimping around
about the five year old neighbor's
birthday party trying to chase the kids
at a park
is a morning birthday party too
it's like the kids so young
that they're like yeah let's just do it at 930 a.m.
on a Saturday I love it when parents do that
that is so funny to me
birthday party four year old
cutting the cake at 830 a.m.
I'm like, Jesus.
Holy, got bags under my eyes and a badass eye joint.
Be there, though.
Yeah.
Coffee and cake, baby.
Oh, that's nice.
A little dip.
Dib with podcast hand?
Yeah, just recorded.
Remember, grandpa's hand.
Don't hand him anything.
It was right.
That's so funny, dude.
He's got podcast hand.
Grandpa's got a play tennis.
with his left hand.
Why, Mom?
Why does Grandpa play tennis
with just his left hand?
He's in this thing called
the clubhouse.
It's a long story.
Was he in the war?
Nah, he just talked about
Mike Alstott a lot.
It's a clubhouse thing.
You understand, son.
One day.
You can't go to,
can't go to Dairy Queen
and how they serve it
where they flip it upside down
and then hand it to you
because you're like,
I actually,
I'll do it.
You just place it in there.
It's like a cup holder.
I'll flip it.
All right, we're good.
You're at church.
Oh, there's Mr.
Mollinard, 76 years old.
Body of Christ.
Was that the podcast guy?
Amen.

Donuts after.
Oh, man.
I'm so not ready for football.
I am ready, but I'm so not ready for
just trash ass football church fits.
Oh, they're the best, dude.
On clouds, old Navy jeans, Kmart, Walmart,
like, I don't even know.
Anthony Richardson jersey?
Oh, Jonathan Taylor, that would be the, that would be the,
that would be the fit.
J.T. Jersey?
No, now it's Tyler Warren.
Now it's Tyler Warren.
Oh.
Locally, that's what it'll be.
Second he scores his first touchdown next week at church, 18 Tyler Warren jerseys on.
I'm gonna be one of them.
Second best tight end on the team, bro.
Anthony Richardson, first best one.
Never been a person who is more of a hey dude wear than the person who wears a football jersey to church.
My dad used to get so mad.
but deep down
I mean it's it's game day dog
like gotta rock the colors
you gotta sport the team
I actually gave you a Seinfeld reference
there
really did
yep good for you
yeah I was always just like
can't we
can we draw it at a quarter zip
or even a pullover
that's a great
khakis
with a quarter zip
or a pullover.
Sick.
Jeans you never washed
in a quarter zip.
I tell you I had an office job for a little bit.
Like I worked for
I worked for the car.
Dude,
such an idiot,
bro.
Such an idiot.
Dude,
people would always turn their backs
like important people
and I would pretend like I was smacking their ass.
Like,
it was just insane.
You know,
you know what I'm talking about?
It's like,
why is this?
This lady's ass in my face anyway.
Yeah, because your cubicles are backed up against each other.
Right, but like your homies right there and watching you.
And like dying, laughing.
So, so much fun.
Dude, I, like, I knew we had to kind of dress nice.
Bro, just every time.
And in the back of my head, I'd be like, I know there's cameras.
Like, I know there's cameras.
It's like getting into it, like, for real?
Dude, that was me at every, every professional job.
I was just like, this is so stupid.
There's only so, there's only certain people that can get away with them.
I swear, it's a weird skill superpower that only certain people are born with.
You and Jordan Reeser, you guys, you'll never get caught.
You do it.
You could be the most blatantly obvious.
You never get caught.
The second I do it, the second time I do it, turn around.
No, you just got to know the timing.
got it. You just got another timing
when they go down. Somebody goes down
to like pick something up. I'm all
day back there. I'm all
day bro. If I got eyes on me
it's like a no look too.
I'm there. And how long
did you work at this job for like two weeks?
Dude
actually, hey
crazy callback
here. I worked there for like
six months fired me
on my birthday. I was like
something. Something
good happens every time. Every birthday, something happened. On my birth, I was like, damn,
I don't have to do anything tomorrow? Like, this is kind of sick, dude. Only your dumbass gets fired
on your birthday. It is like, this is great. Let's go. It could be better. Did me a favor. Like,
we going out to eat tonight? What's up? Did they get, did they fire you because you got caught
smacking the boss's ass? Nah, but I mean, that was probably a reason. Because we were always like really
really laughing hard in there
and there are probably
what are they laughing at
what wait
you ever said what this job
like you don't just say where it was
well what was going on here
dude I worked for the
Carmel
city like the government

like all this crazy
like spreadsheet
dude I was
oh
and at the time I was like coach in high school football
so they'd always come over to my desk and ask me something

trying to see what the blue line runs my bad
yeah yeah print off the scout team sheets
of what the opponent runs so you can have it ready to go

It just didn't go that hard
You're such a bitch for a superhero movie.
Yeah, I mean, it's the only thing I, like, watched.
So I was like, yeah.
I mean, back-to-back weeks, like pretty big, big-name superhero movies.
Let's do it.
Probably won't go for a while, though.
No snacks?
No snacks.
Kept it clean.
Didn't even redeem yourself?
Nah, man.
It was tough.
Ooh, this guy next to me had Snickers minis in his popcorn bucket, though.
And flips chocolate cover.
Like he went in hard.
I was like, I've never seen him with that before.
Bro, I had me and Ryan,
we had a nice little Sunday.
We're rewatch an entourage
because it's just such a great watch.
So easy to watch, you know?
And so we threw that on.
And then we just looked over each other.
We were like,
what you think about those McDonald's spicy chicken snack wraps?
I give those shot.
You guys are on the same page about food.
That's crazy.
Good chem.
Good food chemistry.
Because we had some like wild rice and chicken and carrot soup.
That was kind of like a, you know,
you know how like when you have soup,
you can eat it at like 4 p.m.
But then come back later at like 6.
It's kind of just like an all evening thing.
You know, because you got a big vat of it.
Right.
Right.
That, dude.
Yes.
So we're just kind of.
How much soup do we need?
more. Yep. Yep.
Don't ever stop breaking the damn, dude. Keep that thing
pouring flowing. You could take a bath in that thing, dude.
And so we were just kind of grazing. Hey, you know, just grazing on that on a Sunday afternoon.
And, you know, you felt pretty good because you're like, yeah, you had some soup, some wild rice, some chicken, some carrots, some cucumbers. You have some veggies in there.
But then, like, let's be real. You know.
Like it was good and felt it felt
Good going into the body but then like 7.30 comes
Kids are
Kids are down 730 comes on a Sunday night
Come on.
Let's turn up.

Isn't that crazy when you see somebody who has a profile like that?
Every time.
Every time you do, you do.

Yeah.
I got a couple of randoms that could go on there.
We could talk about it offline.
But now that we're online, when a week,
we get to the clubhouse.
Team these guys are gmail.com.
You, me,
Johnson, and a whole lot of fun.
Team these guys at gmail.com.
Keep going, man.
Hey, can we get a minute?
Can we get a surprise minute?
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, we can.
Yeah.
Well, I asked you if you'd seen Happy Gilmore, too,
and you obviously have it,
but I thought maybe that it would have been one for you.
see the clock. Okay. Look, Happy Gilmore 2. I've seen a whole bunch of really, really negative
thoughts, comments, reviews on it. And what I got to say is what kind of expectation did you have
going into the movie? Did you really sit down to watch Happy Gilmore 2 30 years later on Netflix
and say, yeah, I'm thinking this is going to be something that like changes my life. This is going to
be something that's like Oscar worthy performance. No, dude. You know what you're going to
getting into. It's going to be silly. It's going to be goofy. It's going to be slapsticky. It's going to be a
whole lot of nonsense. And you're probably going to be like, man, I don't know what this is. But you're
there to have fun with the Sandman. And you know what? The Sandman has earned the right to make a movie
like that and put whoever he wants in it and have the most fun and do whatever the hell he wants in it
because he's Adam freaking Sandler and I would do the same damn thing. Happy Gilmore too. It was fun.
I laughed, I cheered.
It was great to see the Sandman back as happy.
I don't know why people are so open arms about it.
I think you just need to go into it and say, hey, this is what is what it is.
And I'm going to be a critic about it because I'm trying to get retweets online.
I was hoping I'd see a little kiper at the end of that.
But hey, next week.
Yeah, yeah, I saw a lot of stuff like that.
I mean, it's just like, dude, you like, and I don't know, you can flip it back and be like,
well, so you just, well, you just.
lower expectations like no not lowering expectations but
I mean like I don't know dude you just
if you just go into it wanting to like those people went into it
knowing that it was going to be stupid and they were like yeah I'm going to be
mad that it's stupid and I'm going to make a point that I'm mad that it's stupid
they couldn't wait but if you just go into right if you just go into it and you're like
yeah it's going to be ridiculously stupid but damn I love happy Gilmore
and this is insane that we're watching this 30 years later after that's all
anybody could talk about since literally like
2005 is like, are we going to get
a happy Gilmore 2? You finally get a happy
Gilmore 2 and it's silly and it's dumb.
But like, dude, I laughed. I thought
it was ridiculous, but I, that's what
I love about Sandler. That's why I love about
all his stuff is like he knows it too.
And if I was Adam freaking Sandler,
me and you would be doing the same thing, bro.
Oh my God. I couldn't wait to make a movie like that.
Just dumb, dumb with all your
friends in it? It's still going to be pretty good.
Like, it'd be a different story.
if that was like a theater movie.
You know what I mean?
I honestly think that it would have been even better
if it was a theater movie.
Because what's the thing that everybody loves to do now
that's happened the last handful of years?
Like two years ago, you had Oppenheimer and Barbie
and everybody made it in an event and they dressed up
and they like, you know, were posting it everywhere.
What was the one last year?
Twisters or I can't remember.
There was another one where people were dressing up
a whole bunch and everything.
Imagine if it was in theaters
and everybody's showing up dressed like Adam Sandler,
dressed like Gilmore or Shooter or Chubs or whatever.
And all this stuff,
I won't give it away for anybody who hasn't seen it yet
or Ben,
obviously you haven't.
But like,
there's so many moments in the movie
that people who are true diehard Sandler,
happy Gilmore fans.
I watched it with four of my good buddies.
Like,
we were openly like,
you know,
yeah,
that's what I'm talking about,
baby,
Happy's back.
Like,
you're kind of cheering,
laughing.
Like,
that would have been so fun.
So I think the theater,
like,
Is it a theater quality movie?
I mean, I guess in terms of dollars,
because they dropped an insane amount of money
with all the people that were in there
and all the shit they did in it.
But like it just,
I think it would have made for an even more fun experience
watching with people rather than if you're just like
watching in your bed on a Tuesday night by yourself
or like with your wife or something.
Yeah.
If you're a, if you're an OG happy Omar fan,
like you didn't care.
No, exactly.
Exactly.
dude.
Anyways.
So that's my,
that's my thoughts.
And yes,
I mean,
I am,
I am a Sandler apologist.
I always will be forever.
There's no,
like,
talking bad about Sandler,
it's like,
it'd be like talking bad about my dad or like my son.
Like I,
I just won't do it.
I am like,
I will not apologize for not doing it.
So is what it is,
babe.
All right
Now we got that out of my system
So team these guys at gmail.com
And you know what to do to me
Do to me
You don't even understand
You know what you do to me
Do to me
Got the passion in that song
Dude, dude
Bro, that's a great one
All right
Let's go to Phil
subject line
Chris Durham
White Georgia receiver
got his Seahawks jersey
for Christmas
when I was 10 I cried
That's amazing
Because I remember that guy
Georgia had a streak of like
White boys that were number 16
I think for a while
And I was like oh my gosh
I don't even know
He might not even been one of those guys
But
Phil says afternoon fellas
Have been listening for a little
Jordan Humphrey
And really enjoy the honest
Jaliel McLaughlins y'all provide.
Holy shit.
Last night I had a dream that I was on a big 10 campus wandering around before a big noon kickoff and ran into y'all.
I told you all I liked the show and we ended up hanging out tailgating all day and going to the game.
I think it was in the big house like Michigan Penn State.
Anyway, I woke up to my wife next to me and she saw the look on my face as if something was terribly wrong.
I just said, I'm fine.
Seriously, when deep down I was disappointed, this wasn't real.
All of this just to ask, what are some of your favorite in-person college football games experiences?
Tailgating parties behind the scenes tours you've been able to do before.
Have you all been to one together?
Slop my rear end while Alec Ogletree runs the blocked field goal all the way back for a touchdown in the 2012 SEC championship game against Bama,
all to lose to them in another bone crushing way with Aaron Murray throws to Chris Conley falling down in bounds as the clock expires.
Thank Jesus we won in 2021, daddy though.
Go dogs.
Sent from Phil in my driveway on my eye.
iPhone. God. A driveway email? Just like that that that five to eight minutes you sit in your car once
you park after you get back just to like scroll your phone before you go inside and scroll again.
It's like the best worst time of your life. You're like, oh, I love this, but I got to go.
I love us so much. Dude, I get sit in my car for two and a half hours. I think I have.
It catches up to you real quick.
Best
I know
You hate it
You hate yourself for doing it
But God in the moment
Bro
It's a drug
What a day for
Phil
The Georgia boy
To email in
When you mention
Your Georgia
Polo
Go dogs
Yeah
What are some of your
favorite
In-person
College football
Games or experiences
And no
We haven't been
To one together
Surprisingly
Actually, yes, we have.
We went to the 2021 national championship.
That was insane.
What a time that was, bro.
Bad uniform battle, but good game.
Sip and wine.
We were there for your dogs, for your dogs.
And Andy had to go.
Great seats.
That was super cool.
That was a lot of fun.
Sala, Joe, was that Joe.
Was that Joe Tess?
Yeah, was Joe Tessator, right?
Joe Tessator.
God, what a sick name.
Tessator.
And we saw...
God, who else did we see?
NFL Network guy?
Jesse Rogers.
Jordan Rogers?
Jordan Rogers.
Shit.
Jordan Rogers.
Dude, I think he's a low-key clubhouse guy.
I don't know if you listen.
but I think so.
Yeah, I've been pretty lucky, man.
I've gotten to, because I did that tour with Fox two years ago.
So I got to hit Texas A&M.
I got to hit the Rose Bowl.
I got to hit the swamp.
It's crazy.
You went there?
You went to the swamp?
So the deal, yeah, so I would get in on Thursdays.
We would do the show on Fridays and then I would typically leave on Saturday.
So I, the only time I stayed for a game was when LSU played at Alabama,
which that was insane.
Got to do sideline passes before the game at Bama.
The tailgating there was fun to,
because they just have like fields and fields,
but they're like rows that are set up.
and people have tents,
but they're not just like regular ass tents.
They're decked out.
They have like chandeliers and shit.
It was unbelievable.
The swamp,
like I've been in the swamp,
not for a game,
but went down there for that.
Texas A&M,
their like program reached out
and had me come and do like a tour
of the field and the facilities.
And that was,
you know, talk about like old oil money shit.
I mean, it was,
crazy each at texas a and m in the stadium they have like i think it's called like millionaires
row or something and they're all sweets and outside of each suite there's an oil painting of
the family who owns that suite how are they not winning a championship every year nil right
how is ianm eight and four every year what's happening dude so they took you on tour like you were like a
About to get a scholarship?
Like you're like...
Kind of.
Yeah.
Sallel facilities and like...
Put the jerseys on and the club.
Your dad's there?
Alabama did that.
Their AD took us around.
I would 100% ask.
Yeah, let me see the equipment room real quick before we get out of here.
That would be so hard.
Yeah, each one of them they would like take me.
So they would like, they all have these like recruit rooms.
they do where they show them like they put them in there in these nice ass movie theater
seats they have like the LSU tiger eye on the back and like a surround sound screen so it's like
the entire room you're just in the screen and uh they play like a recruiting video and shit um
so that was crazy i've been really lucky i've got to do a lot a lot of them and they never get old
they never get old but i've just been doing i've just been doing it i've just been doing it
Michigan State tailgate.
And never went in the game.
Yeah.
That's my tailgating story.
I was like,
I don't know.
They're going to lose.
Let's just stay out here.
It's better anyway.
And like,
do we even have tickets?
Like,
I treated it like a high school game.
I was like,
can we just get in at halftime?
I tell you,
Notre Dame tailgates,
though,
might be my favorite.
Something about being up there.
I mean,
like LSU was sick.
but
Notre Dame on like
in October
or Saturday
it's like a little
chilly
little crisp out there
sun's shining
it's a pretty different
feel
I'll admit
yeah
you're just like
is Jeff Samarja
here
that's why you like it
bro
I need to
a tall sweep
to Darius Walker
real quick
go up top
to Marie Stovall
he was the first
cool number three
I was like
ooh they got
Darius Walker
we're in
wow
Wow. Good call on the number three. Yeah.
That was like a-oh.
That was always so, that was always so wild.
They have Marie Stobald, 21 receiver.
It's like, sure.
What a squad.
Can't name one defensive player, though.
Still the dream to have these guys do a college tour like that.
That's, that's my dream.
Do that.
I'll die happy.
cooking.
From Tommy.
Subject line, office hunting.
Ben and Joey, something I noticed working my 9 to 5,
there are a significant amount of employees who display huntie-esque tendencies.
Obviously not in the relationship context like the classic hunting,
but incredibly dull conversations and overly simple observations on things.
Just total NPCs.
Not sure they should officially be called hunties.
So curious what you guys would name them.
Smack my ass with weed kids dusty hoodie from Tommy.
Wee kids hoodie
Carhart
Or it's one that just says
It has like the Joker's face on it or something
Or like tech nine
Tech nine
All blacked out hoodie
So wait wait wait wait wait
He was asking
Um
Hunty tendencies
Hunty
For office employees
So maybe they're not like
Hunties in terms of relationships
but they're office hunties.
And what would that be?
What would they still be a hunting?
Or would there be a new term that's just for the people that you would work with in the Carmel City building?
Office hunting, bro.
Always asking about your weekend.
For what?
Good weekend?
Dude, it's just like that video.
Good weekend?
My grass was like, hey.
It's getting hot out there, dude.
A lot of wet.
Weather talk.
A lot of, why are we talking talk?
Like, just say something crazy.
Please, for the love of God.
And then, like, it's like Wednesday hits, and they're like, almost the weekend.
I'm like, why do you even work here?
Yeah.
That would actually make me, like, kind of sad.
A break room guy.
Sports talk.
And, yeah, so I'm just imagining, like, what the happy Gilmore talk would be like with
these office hanties today.
And you know, I mean, I've done those videos before it.
You know what it would be, you know.
Those guys are haters.
Happy Gilmore, too.
I know.
I know.
I mean, you're never going to beat the original.
You're never going to beat the original.
Right.
You're never going to beat the original.
Say that probably three times.
They really shanked on that one.
Yeah.
Hey, talk about a whiff.
This guy's dying at their bad jokes.
you know what I mean
that's office hunting
like he's a hater
bro but he would never
yeah because he's a dork loser
so that's all they got
I know I know
all those office guys are the biggest haters
like on the the
your football team
your NFL team in town
like they will talk so much trash
on that team
they make a trade
bruds have no idea
what they're talking about to
just like
saw it on the screen
in the break room
a first take
and so they just run with that.
I don't know.
I don't know.
Bunch of, I don't know.
Okay, guy.
Yeah, off it's haunty.
Let's go to
Ethan.
Gone on, fellas.
I recently watched the new season of quarterback on Netflix
and have enjoyed seeing the day-to-day
of those guys outside of football.
Seeing Captain Kirk and his hunting tendencies
got me thinking about who the biggest huntie
are in pro sports.
Even though this is the furthest thing
you're in sports podcast,
if you guys had to name a few
past or present,
who are some of the guys
that come to mind?
Love the pot and look forward
to hearing your thoughts.
If it's not framed
and in the NIA Hall of Fame,
slap my ass with the Game War
National Championship
of number 15 on the Marion Knights.
Ethan sent from LG chocolate.
Oh, that's hard.
LG chocolate was a cool ass phone.
It was.
Chocolate?
15.
I am.
know.
Jeff Foster,
Huntie?
Austin Crozier.
I think he kind of had a little
swag.
A little
little something.
Jeff Foster,
I don't know.
Big stiff.
Austin Crozier kind of was too,
though.
They're kind of the same guy.
Close.
Crozier had hit a clutch three
and I'm like, that's not
Huntie material right there, though.
See, but then
Foster was too hard nose.
I don't think you're attacking a glass like that if you're a hunty.
Foster crash in the boards, hunting.
I say Russell Wilson.
Oh my God.
That's such a good one.
Oh, my God.
Dude, I don't know if it gets any better than that.
Hey, hey, Tim Tebow?
I think Russell Wilson still.
Final boss,
Hunty
Sports Hunty
Tim Tebow is too
though
It's good
Keep going
Yeah
because you get to
double with Russell
Because I think
he actually is
Hunty
in his relationship
with Sierra
But then also
In real life
He's just a robot
To
He's a robot
Quarterback
Like my brother
and law
Always would say
That last year
He would just
laugh
And be like
There's no
Like
This guy is fake
Russell
Russell Wilson
Honty
For sure
Tim Thibow
Such not a
Hunty move to Mary Sierra though
Hey
Is new Travis Kelsey
Hunty
Oh
He is
Dude new Travis Kelsey
Is the most
Hunty vert
That's why nobody likes him anymore bro
I miss kill a trap
I miss
Chevy Avalanche
Trab
Has he gone from 2008
Hardest
jock of 2008 to
Hunty? He's a little
haunty with his haircut. I think he cut it
but ew.
I huntie.
Photoshoot Hunty?
I have three reception.
I drop four balls in the Super Bowl
Hunty for you.
This is our version of
first take here. Weird haircut.
Gives Kelsey's a Huntie.
Wow. What a take.
Hunty Club.
I mean, it does change things, I think, if he's got the buzzed 2009 jock haircut.
But this summer with that flowy hair that was dripping in front of his eyes and like the wedding photo shoots that he was posting, like, I don't know.
Little hauntie there.
Criping and a hunky mode.
Ew, that's so bad.
That's such a good call.
Three for three.
Three for three.
Thank you.
Thank you.
I'm going to walk off on that one.
I'm going to walk off on that one.
Let's go to James.
It says Warren Sapp jersey.
These guys second time email are all to talk about random jerseys on this pod.
Made me think about a jersey I had when I was a kid.
I want to say I was about 10 years old and I was on vacation with my family in Branson, Missouri.
Classic Middle Class Midwest vacation.
We were at one of those cheesy tourist gift shops where they sold anything and everything.
on a discount rack was a red Warren Sapp 99 Falcons jersey.
Only thing is Warren Sapp never played for the Falcons.
I thought it was hilarious, so I bought it for $5.
Clearly it was a mistake made by Reebok.
P.S. The Reebok era was the best NFL jersey era,
and I can't be convinced.
Otherwise, correct.
I wish I still had the jersey or I would have attached a pick of it.
Unfortunately, I think I donated it to Goodwell at some point while I was in college.
I don't have a question.
I just want to share the story at the clubhouse
because this is the only audience that might also think
an incorrect Warren Sapp jersey
at a random store and Branson, Missouri
is remotely funny.
Even though this isn't a podcast about 2000s
football players or jerseys or anything like that,
sent for my PSP, Jimmy.
Oh, PSPs.
Ahead of their time.
Yeah, I would have done anything for that,
uni. For a minute, I was just trying to buy those.
All the defected ones?
So funny to me.
like what what's other defected one i i was at a party with a kid
it was a weird like sunday night party it was really weird but he had a calvin johnson jersey on
and johnson on the back was upside down i was like i'll buy it off you right now dude
i'll buy that off you right now he's like i can't i just got it like i was like you're the
only guy that would think that was cool besides me
White Detroit Lions
Megatron Johnson upside down.
I was like,
let me get that.
Think about how much you really need that now
that you are Johnson.
Johnson.
Come on.
I was looking forward to every like weird retail store.
You only find them in weird like clothing racks.
I was like where is?
I know there's got to be more.
Yeah, that red one popped for sure.
Yeah
That is
I mean I don't even know how that
I don't know how that happens
But PSP man
Sorry the
PSP
Only the kids
Who's parents own
Their own companies had those
I tried to get one for Christmas
So bad
Didn't
Had to buy one myself
After Christmas
I had to do one of those
When you don't get the thing
You went for Christmas
Then you got to go like
Three days after
Mm-hmm
like begging your parents
had to return like four things
to get it. It was crazy.
Kept it for like
a,
kept it for like,
uh,
half a year,
maybe played it four times.
Sad.
You never get the run
you think you're going to get out of those things.
I had like 10 songs on it.
And that's kind of it.
I don't even know if I had a game.
That's why I'm like,
I would love to get the,
I honestly would.
I would love to get the Nintendo Switch.
And I've talked about on this show,
how every year for Christmas,
I'm like,
this is the year I'm bawling out,
I'm getting the gaming system.
But I know it would be six times
during Christmas break,
and then it would just sit there.
Look at the hell am I going to do?
I'm just,
I'm not gonna,
I'm not gonna.
I'm close to pulling the trig on a PS2.
A PS2?
I'll bring it to.
Yeah, yeah,
PS2.
Old game, old controller,
clear controller.
I'll bring it to indie.
We'll live stream on it.
These guys,

Okay.
