Starting point is 00:02:29 Hot guys with bad backs. One podcast right here, baby. Dude. What happened? I have no idea. Swing. That's the damnedest thing.
Starting point is 00:02:42 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.
Starting point is 00:02:59 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
Starting point is 00:03:26 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.
Starting point is 00:03:51 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.
Starting point is 00:04:08 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
Starting point is 00:04:28 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
Starting point is 00:04:44 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
Starting point is 00:05:05 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,
Starting point is 00:05:33 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.
Starting point is 00:05:49 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.
Starting point is 00:06:09 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.
Starting point is 00:06:29 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.
Starting point is 00:06:46 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.
Starting point is 00:07:18 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?
Starting point is 00:07:37 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.
Starting point is 00:08:07 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
Starting point is 00:08:24 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
Starting point is 00:08:44 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.
Starting point is 00:09:02 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.
Starting point is 00:09:15 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.
Starting point is 00:09:45 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.
Starting point is 00:10:10 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
Starting point is 00:10:29 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
Starting point is 00:10:46 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,
Starting point is 00:11:01 yo, can we get some chopped up tires for, we got to have mulch? Mulch. Ew, bro.
Starting point is 00:11:08 Hey, but if it was like a dairy queen blizzard called mulch, first one to buy it. Dude, another thing
Starting point is 00:11:16 at the clubhouse bar. Another thing of the clubhouse bar, we don't have landscaping mulch out, we don't have landscaping mulch
Starting point is 00:11:23 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
Starting point is 00:11:34 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
Starting point is 00:11:49 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
Starting point is 00:12:05 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
Starting point is 00:12:21 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
Starting point is 00:12:35 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
Starting point is 00:12:53 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.
Starting point is 00:13:07 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,
Starting point is 00:13:21 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.
Starting point is 00:13:31 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.
Starting point is 00:13:44 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.
Starting point is 00:13:59 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,
Starting point is 00:14:37 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.
Starting point is 00:14:58 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,
Starting point is 00:15:16 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.

Starting point is 00:31:54 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,
Starting point is 00:32:07 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
Starting point is 00:32:47 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.
Starting point is 00:33:18 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
Starting point is 00:33:51 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
Starting point is 00:34:18 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.
Starting point is 00:34:34 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.
Starting point is 00:34:51 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
Starting point is 00:35:10 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.
Starting point is 00:35:24 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,
Starting point is 00:35:35 yeah, that's what I'm talking about, baby, Happy's back. Like, you're kind of cheering, laughing. Like,
Starting point is 00:35:40 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.
Starting point is 00:35:52 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.
Starting point is 00:36:10 No, exactly. Exactly. dude. Anyways. So that's my, that's my thoughts. And yes, I mean,
Starting point is 00:36:19 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.
Starting point is 00:36:31 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
Starting point is 00:36:45 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
Starting point is 00:37:03 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
Starting point is 00:37:17 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
Starting point is 00:37:32 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.
Starting point is 00:37:48 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.
Starting point is 00:38:21 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.
Starting point is 00:39:02 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
Starting point is 00:39:22 Bro It's a drug What a day for Phil The Georgia boy To email in When you mention Your Georgia
Starting point is 00:39:33 Polo Go dogs Yeah What are some of your favorite In-person College football Games or experiences
Starting point is 00:39:44 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.
Starting point is 00:40:02 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.
Starting point is 00:40:20 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?
Starting point is 00:40:36 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.
Starting point is 00:40:56 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?
Starting point is 00:41:19 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.
Starting point is 00:41:52 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,
Starting point is 00:42:07 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,
Starting point is 00:42:22 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.
Starting point is 00:42:58 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.
Starting point is 00:43:19 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.
Starting point is 00:43:58 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.
Starting point is 00:44:06 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,
Starting point is 00:44:17 though, might be my favorite. Something about being up there. I mean, like LSU was sick. but Notre Dame on like in October
Starting point is 00:44:29 or Saturday it's like a little chilly little crisp out there sun's shining it's a pretty different feel I'll admit
Starting point is 00:44:37 yeah you're just like is Jeff Samarja here that's why you like it bro I need to a tall sweep
Starting point is 00:44:45 to Darius Walker real quick go up top to Marie Stovall he was the first cool number three I was like ooh they got
Starting point is 00:44:54 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.
Starting point is 00:45:13 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.
Starting point is 00:45:31 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.
Starting point is 00:45:56 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
Starting point is 00:46:21 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
Starting point is 00:46:34 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?
Starting point is 00:46:56 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.
Starting point is 00:47:15 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
Starting point is 00:47:39 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.
Starting point is 00:47:57 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.
Starting point is 00:48:13 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
Starting point is 00:48:28 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
Starting point is 00:48:39 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.
Starting point is 00:48:54 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.
Starting point is 00:49:17 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
Starting point is 00:49:28 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.
Starting point is 00:49:38 Ethan sent from LG chocolate. Oh, that's hard. LG chocolate was a cool ass phone. It was. Chocolate? 15. I am. know.
Starting point is 00:49:57 Jeff Foster, Huntie? Austin Crozier. I think he kind of had a little swag. A little little something. Jeff Foster,
Starting point is 00:50:10 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
Starting point is 00:50:21 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.
Starting point is 00:50:47 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

Criping and a hunky mode. Ew, that's so bad. That's such a good call. Three for three. Three for three. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:53:29 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.
Starting point is 00:53:47 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.
Starting point is 00:54:10 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
Starting point is 00:54:27 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.
Starting point is 00:54:49 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
Starting point is 00:55:26 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.
Starting point is 00:55:46 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

Starting point is 00:56:25 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,
Starting point is 00:56:37 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.
Starting point is 00:56:52 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,
Starting point is 00:57:01 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.
