Like I sent this the other day. Teacher, turn to page 23, page 23. So fire. God, damn it, I missed that. That's it. That's a paper trail. Yeah, that's all I want.

That is perfect. Thank God. We live in this era. TG80. These guys. What up, Clubhouse. And our wide receiver era now.

DG. 80? Hey, Rod Smith. Just saying. Rod Smith, Chris Carter, Jerry Rice. He looks like Jerry Rice out there. 80's a sexy number. Wide receivers in the 80s just hit different, dude.

Hey, hey, hey, Jeremy Shockey. Jeremy, was he 80? Not a wide receiver, but basically a wide receiver? Hey, what number was Plexko Burris for the Steelers? 80. No way, was he? Yeah. Yeah, okay, nice.

And then he changed the 17 with the Giants. Yep. What a jump, dude. Your whole personality's in the 80s, and then you go to the teens. It's like, I don't know, man. And then I'm pretty sure, yeah, and then we re-signed them randomly

in 2012, I think. 2012, 2013. It was in our transition phase. is our defense is horrible. We're 8 and 8 every year. And we re-signed plaques for some reason. And he scored a touchdown. Classic jump ball touchdown against the Browns.

Like last week of the season. And it was just like, well, yeah, plaques, let's go. It was nice. That's,

that's, oh, damn, that one feels good. Like he's on the team, like, but he's not really on the team unless he scores, you know?

Right. It felt like some, it felt like some closure. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Well, let's tie up some loose ends. TG80, bro.

I don't want, I don't want closure with an ex-relationship. You know, I don't want to go to a coffee shop with a girl. I just want Plachsgo Burris to score a touchdown and his second go around with the Steelers. That's all that. That's the only closure.

I hate closure otherwise. Really? Yeah, bro. Like in relationships, I'm like, I don't care, bro. It's just over. Like, once it's over, it's over. I don't need to write an email and tell you what like all the, like, bro, come on.

Yeah, that's, that's, that's pretty true. That's fair. Closure and a relationship is just like, you're just getting together to hate bang one more time. And then you're like, ah, we still don't really have it. So we'll meet up again for lunch one time. You meet up again for lunch one time. And it's like, uh, nothing really got accomplished. But we hooked up.

So the closure never ends. And it, it's just an excuse to see the other person one more. time in bang like you said it's like what are we doing bro like if we broke up like let's just break up what the fuck yeah yeah it's a break and it's never seeing each other again or speaking ever yeah but that's not how it works no it's not how it goes but if you're the stealers like yeah you can play one more season with us please hey we always need a big body receiver you know throw it up to him red zone target come on what happened to tall receivers bro they just stopped making them or what's going on?

Yeah, it's weird. Like, it is kind of interesting, you know? It's, it's, they have this revolution of wide receivers that are kind of like

the six foot, six one can play outside and inside. But yeah, just, just give me a, give me a Plexgo Burris one time, you know? But all those guys like get turned into tight ends,

I feel like. Yeah. But I don't know. Are we like, are we like, generationally old for thinking that. Because I still want like, I still want like circus freaks in the NBA too

that are like seven, five. But it's just like not the play anymore, you know? Yeah, I mean, yeah, Victor Wimbonyama. I know, but like, remember when every team just had like a dude though? I mean, maybe. Like a Sean Bradley. Yeah, dude. Like every team like has their guy.

Like that's what I want, bro. Like every team like has their like gladiator. like Shaq, dude. Just, I don't know. Or like, they all had one guy like, yeah, it's like Sean Bradley. They all had one guy like that. But like, if he was,

if he was 6'9, he wouldn't be in the NBA. But because he's 7.4, he was. Yeah. You know? One of those. Sports podcast. Yeah, no shit.

Yo, Hartford was good. Let's push some tickeys real quick and get rolling. Please. May 1st. Omaha. Nebraska. Hey, man. I'm on green.

I'm on green. No shit. Wow. I'll see you May 1st. Omaha, Nebraska, then May 30th, Syracuse, New York. See you then.

All tickets at Benedictplitze.com or right underneath the podcast. I got shows every week here coming up, starting Wednesday night before the NFL draft. Yeah, I think it's a good time. Melchiber joining on there. Majestic Theater, Detroit. If you're coming out for the NFL draft

or you're in the area or whatever, man, Detroit, come out. Buffalo was awesome. Guy showed up in a Peerless Price jersey, like a 2006 Peerless Price Bill's jersey. It was great. That's such a crazy jersey, bro. Yeah.

Buffalo was a lot of fun. Really, really enjoyed my show, my time of Buffalo. So Detroit Wednesday. May 2nd, Thursday in Kansas City, May 7th, Twin Cities. That's Minneapolis, St. Paul. Never been there. So looking forward to going to.

Never been to Kansas City either. So really looking forward to both of those as well. So same thing has been said. Website official joining Molinaro.com. And then in my bio on socials and on the pod. So you said your last name like other people say your last name. Moulonaro. Dude.

Yeah, people. I don't even care. anymore. Nah. They're like, you're, you're Politi and Molanaro.

And I'm like, yeah, yeah, fuck it. Yeah. So it's like, oh, it's our high school

football trainer now all over again. It's just the rest of our life. I'm like, it's not worth explaining. The guy, the guy who was our trainer and our

outside linebackers coach in 2009. That's how he pronounced. Yeah. That's how he pronounced our names. And we're like, ah, that'll wear off. Nope.

Then he was just set in the tone, set in the groundwork for everybody to follow. Those guys go so hard on you when you're like sophomores and freshmen. Remember how scary your coaches were when you're like a sophomore? I was like, you have to be the craziest guy I've ever met in my life. All of them. Especially the trainer.

Like why did I have so much fear to walk into the trainer's room and like ask them for a mouthpiece? There's legitimate fear. But I always felt bad kind of for the one coach. Like you'd have a coaching staff obviously of like 15 guys and you'd be terrified of all of them. but there'd be like one that you're like, everybody just knew. You're like, get the fuck off.

Get out of here. Well, like he wasn't. You can try to be hard. You can try to be hard, but you're not. And we're not, we're not afraid of you.

Yeah. But then when he did get mad, you're like, oh my God. Like that meant something. He gives, he gives the pregame speech and like goes crazy. And you're like,

you're also like, oh, man, he probably, uh, like you kind of feel bad because you're like man he definitely like goes home and vince to his wife about us oh damn i don't know if i ever had a coach like that bro you're like damn we probably should just kind of like let him have one every now and then just so he's not like going back to his wife and just being like i just don't get it i can't get

through to him yeah let's not ride coach so hard kind of start feeling bad yeah that's how my weird brain works, my empath brain. No, I think like that too. Oh. I hate it. Then the next practice, you're like talking to him about actual stuff. You're like, so how'd everything go? Yeah, yeah.

Trying to walk it back on him. You're like, oh man, this is like, this is good. He's like, I'm making him feel good and like I feel good about this. And like maybe we have something here at Coach Ski. Yeah, maybe he likes the running backs again. Oh, real quick. Also, forgotten pushing tinkies. Pittsburgh coming for you this weekend.

Don't have a show of my own. But I'm going to be out there this weekend for the draft and for the draft party with the Steelers. So, wait, see you guys out there. The draft is this Thursday? Yeah,

first round Thursday, second and third round Friday, fourth through seventh round where champions are born on Saturday, baby. It's draft week, bro? Yeah. My God. Let's go.

My whole life just changed, bro. Because I needed something today, and that was it. It's draft week. Best day of the year. Best day of the year, Thursday. Wake up. All the logos on the screen. A round six, pick 14.

I'm like, what do we got, baby? What do we got? Who are we getting from Eastern Michigan that's really going to put us over the top in three years? was that three technique who's the two technique? Who's the two technique from Eastern? Give it to me man, it's all I want.

Plaxo bears to score a touchdown in his return and a three technique from Eastern Michigan in the sixth round. Why is that the most exciting thing when your team gets some weird guy in the sixth round and you're just like, oh, he's going to change the franchise. Every single guy, he's going to change everything for us. Because you have, you know, Daniel Jeremiah, my guy who's doing a great job on TV talking about them. And then you have, you know, Kuiper obviously, give him a big rambunctious, you know,

let's get a player, you know, Belarad, the future. And you're like, man, this is exciting. And then you go on Twitter and you have the people who actually like watch film and stuff and like the Twitter football junkies who are just like, loved, loved watching this guy's tape. Talk about an absolute animal in the trenches. Can't teach that. Can't teach that. You're like, yes, this is great value on day three. You're like, yeah, this is what it's all about.

This is how champions are made. God, I love when your team gets a steal in the second round. Oh, my, what a feeling. I want to, dude, all-time draft steals. Can we talk? Is this too much, is this too sportsy? Who's the biggest steal? Who's the biggest, like, low-key steal?

I know Tom Brady, no shit, but like, like, you know when a guy like slips, like on some, Lamar Jackson shit actually. Mar Jackson could be up there. Aaron Rogers could be up there. Oh, that was insane, bro. Antonio Brown. Dude, we're such fucking meatheads for just always

the draft is so no, bro. It's the best, dude. I can remember playing in an AAU basketball game in eighth grade, like at one of those sports plexes, you know what I mean? And in like the concessions, stand the draft was on TV and like on the court

I was like looking to see who the Bears picked and shit I was like they were like setting up a play like Chiller was like setting up a play and I was like motion motion oh shit they got

they got a they got a they got that running back from Oklahoma State oh shit dude the last two second round picks for the Steelers George Pickens and Joey Porter Jr.

Hey, second round pick coach. Why don't you fucking move up to the first round? You're doing great. Promoted. Night eight, night one, round one is as glitz and glamour and it's exciting and there's drama and it's awesome. But man, round two, round three, that's where it's at. That's where your money is made. Round one is kind of too much of a show for me.

because that's where it's all about value. I love how we can just talk about this forever. Do you know anybody else I can talk about the draft? Like, I can talk about the draft for three months. Bro, I had, there was a guy who actually went on his show last week or a couple weeks ago to promote my Buffalo show. And he works in the NFL media.

And he, him and his brother came to my show. and afterwards, like I didn't, I didn't, and all of a sudden they were there. It was like, oh, my God, great. Dude, we played the quarterback game for like three, for like 30 minutes. Just name and quarterback? Just like name a random quarterback. You start with a team and then you name, try to name the most like irrelevant random quarterback who, you could have played like two series for them, you know, like come in when somebody got hurt,

played two series. We played it for like 20, 30 minutes at the bar at helium. awesome. So yes, there are people out there. There are people out there. And it's our, it's our listeners. It's the clubhouse, obviously. Hey, can you imagine? Huh. Yeah. Can you, can you imagine when we open the clubhouse bar one day? What the draft, what the draft parties are going to be like and the conversation is going to be like at clubhouse bar? I can't wait to just be like at a table, like talking to somebody and then a guy just comes out of the bathroom. We make eye contact. He looks at me and just goes, J.P. Lossman. And I'm like, Tulane? Maybe.

Damn. That's a good one, man. Dude, J.P. Losman walks on. And what's wild is that the younger crowd, they don't even, you know, You know. They play the younger club. For younger clubhouse, they've been spoiled. They may not even remember the times, like our times growing up, where you had the first four rounds,

was it? On Saturday? Yeah, they don't know. Because I barely remember that. The first round would kick off at like noon on Saturday. No better feeling. When the draft wasn't so much of a show,

it was like, nitty gritty bro. I remember waking up at 9 a.m. and watching the Steelers draft Ben Rothesburg. I was like, oh my. So happy.

I was like, mom, can we get pizza? She's like, why. I was like, the Steelers just got that bad ass quarterback. They,

yeah, that was back in the day when it was for like the real nitty gritty, you know? Yeah, the real guys. Finger tape.

Yeah. The finger wagon tape, you know. Not today. It's on Instagram. My ass. You know, you got the red carpet and the fashion show in the first round. But it has changed the game with the people who would know not being able to tip picks.

Oh, what do you mean? Like, like, yeah, with the Schefters and the Rapoports of the world and all them and the Shragers, for them not being able to say like, yeah, number three. the Patriots are selecting Drake May you know now we have to wait and be like oh my God they're trading back and we see it as it

first on your phone and especially with that Antonio Brown account now bro have you seen that CTSPN that shit is insane he's gonna leak all the draft picks he's leaking everything

he's been right on some stuff it's kind of wild he's been right on all of it All the uniforms? He leaks like all the team's uniforms before they come out. Like he leaked the Broncos. He leaked the Texans. And like people are like, oh, that's not real. That's fake.

And then they come out. And it's like the same shit that he leaked. So I'm thinking during the draft, he's going to be trouble. What was that big signing or that big trade that he just? The Chargers quarter, Herbert to the Vikings. Oh, is that what he's peddling right now? Herbert to the Vikings and the charges get two

the Vikings first round picks or something, some shit like that. Whoa. Dude, he's always right. This has got me thinking, man,

the wheels are starting to turn in preparation for Thursday. I know. It would, it would make sense. It feels right. It feels not too off, you know?

Hey, then, Jim Harbaugh can draft his guy, J.J. McCarthy, and it can just be Michigan West. Crazy. That's hard, bro. Wow. Look at you putting it all together. He did say, I've seen it on that account, a couple things about the Steelers trading for Justin Jefferson. That would make sense. Dude, if they had, if the Steelers had Pickens and Justin Jefferson, that, those are, bro, they are dogs. That would be insane. Yeah.

I can dream I don't know man I mean I yeah I'm going into Thursday this whole weekend I yeah anything can happen wouldn't be surprised if any of that happened

honestly Russell Wilson just thrown the draft man Russell Wilson throwing bombs to those two dudes my dad won a he did one of those

like retweet to win things and he won a Russell Wilson Steelers jersey a white or black think black Yeah, that's pretty cool. White would be, dude, white Steelers, just go hard. Why don't I kind of want one?

That's so surprising coming from you. That's so surprising coming from you. Yeah. But it's not at the same time. I'm a big fan of white, like away uniforms right now. They just all, like, they just, they just, they just pop a little more. I don't know what it is.

Like, even going back to, like, the Pacers pinstripes uniforms, like the white ones were just doing some for me. home was dope but the white was like oh shit basketball does basketball does the opposite oh my bad

my bad is the only sport yeah yeah yeah I fucked that those were those were not yeah all right so what do we

what do we think the the Texans and the Broncos dripping or tripping um Texans I like them the white ones

that we actually saw legit I like those I wish the numbers were red. I like that red number for some reason. It looks good. Besides that, though, I like the shoulder thing and I hope their helmet has that horn on it. Oh, yeah.

At some point. Did you see their alternate logo with the H on it? Don't like that. Little 2004. Yeah, I know. I'm like, guys, what do we come on, man? You're supposed to be set in the trends.

Broncos hated It's very It seems like high school Yep Tripping man I'm stuck on the I'm stuck on the L way dude Yeah and I mean

But they redeem themselves Because they introduce that they're going to be wearing that throwback Which is the L way the original Lways With the D and the Bronco threw it It you know with the Royal Blue And the the orange crush ones which are great but it's like

okay so you're only gonna be able to wear those what twice three times yeah those should just be their uniforms sadly A Lions Drippin or tripping I'm gonna go dripping but I don't I don't like the name

I don't like how it says Detroit and lions on it I'm like guys we fucking know. We know. You're like, come on, man. It's like TV newscasts when they are taking it to a segment

about sports. Like they have to have a basketball there while they're talking about basketball. Or a football helmet and a football on the table and another reporter's holding the football while they're talking about it. It's like, oh wait.

You weren't talking about the cold, though, okay. Oh, my God. Yeah, but I don't know. the word mark like the small word mark is cool but the the big ones I'm like okay Detroit high I like the I like what they did with the alternates because those sleepy grays those pajama gray alternates they had were horrible yeah absolutely horrible and they so they made the blue pop like highlighter blue pop on the helmet with the black and the black coming back is like reminiscent of those Dan cameron

days when he played. They randomly had that black jersey that you like. Sexy. It's kind of like my monster can, honestly. Bro, you're on. That's an exciting era of your life. Monster era. It is.

At the same time, I'm like, I don't know. Is this like making my heartbeat too fast? What the hell is going on? It's definitely not good, but sometimes you just got to, you just got to do it. You know what I mean? I'm not going to say it's good for you or anything like that. But in a couple of years,

I'm going to be like, bro, remember when you were just crushing monsters? And you're going to be like, yeah, it was crazy. I'm going to be like, yeah,

that was crazy. Yeah, bro, that was crazy. You remember that? The, no, I mean,

I wasn't looking for your validation on, on the health because I know. I know. I know you know. I know you know. It's just, it's wild, bro. Like if I was drinking a monster right now, I'd feel free.

I can't, you know, I have two or three cups of coffee. Yeah, I have two or three cups of coffee every morning, if not more. And then once it gets to the afternoon, I'm like, it's all just like, what's getting me to the next thing, right? Coffee gets me to lunch, right? So then once I'm at lunch, I'm like, all right, I'll have a monster that I just pop open out of the fridge, is ice cold. It's more of an afternoon drink, right? then once I'm done with the monster then with dinner I'm like all right maybe it's time for a glass

of wine maybe I do a diet Dr. Pepper you know and then at bedtime it's water so it's just like what's getting me to the next thing coffee's in the morning okay I'm here to Monster in the afternoon it like breaks up my day nicely yeah

no I that makes sense man I'm running into a lot of DC folks a lot of Diet Coke lovers lately And I'm actually thinking about it myself I'm like, should I get on the DC train? I've made the transition. Yep.

But are you, uh, is it, Dr. Pepper sounds a little better. We got both DC and DDP. Yeah. You down with DDP? Yeah, you know me. Like it's an actual like, you know, like, dentists are like DDS or whatever the fuck. Yeah, it's a, he's a DDP. DDP

DDP guy Big DDP guy Oh he's DDP Yeah No I mean Yeah zero cows Zero sugar Taste pretty solid

When it's cold It's so funny man Just once you hit a certain age It's just all the Because when I was a kid I was like Why the hell are my parents drinking like diet coke And diet Mountain do and shit I know

It's so funny And you just don't understand it until you're that age Yep. But it did slap as a kid too. Are you in, are you in any group chats? Like group messages? Yeah.

Um, yeah. I mean, I'm in like the whole F Boy Island group messages, but I don't say anything. Yeah. They just like text and every once in a while. I saw a meme recently.

It's like, what's your role in a group chat? and they were like to mute it. Yeah. That's fair. I hate that they are like, I don't know, man. I'm kind of just like, who has the time?

Or like, I just can't understand group messages that just keep going all day. I'm like, what are you guys doing? Just sitting there? I don't know. See, that's, I've got one that I just live for.

That is, you know, most of them that I'm in, I'll put on mute. and I'll contribute every now and then if I see fit. But then there's one that like, that's where the fellows are and that's where the jokes are getting ripped off. And that's, and, uh,

that's what gets you through. You know what I mean? I just haven't found my group message, I don't think. Yeah. I mean, you probably have a family one too, or yours muted probably.

No, I don't, no. My, like me and my sisters have one, but there's a message that, goes in there like every two months. Like it's not consistent.

It's just like what should we get mom for Christmas? And then like we don't we don't text in there until it's like what should we get dad for Christmas, you know? Yeah. I hear you. I got two. I got one that's the family that I'm in. I rock with and I'm pretty active in.

And then I got another one that's like seven on my best friends that is just stuff. That goes crazy. It goes crazy, man. again when you get when you get really gone it's just stupid like on a Friday night like when it gets on fire and you're like oh no not even a Friday night man it's best when it's like a Tuesday night at like 8 p.m. Oh shit. Because everybody's home. What are you guys talking about?

Are you guys talking about just like high school shit or are you talking about like oh yeah all of it. High school shit obviously sports or sports sports all my life we were talking about the uniforms you send tweets or memes in there

man it sucks it sucks though when you send something in there and you get no response ooh maybe that's maybe that's why I don't like group messages because I'm scared of to fail it's tough man I don't want to bomb I don't want a bomb. If you throw one in there and it gets like, you know, it starts buzzing, starts blowing up a little bit with reactions and whatnot.

You're like, all right. Got the boys going. There we go. You have made my mark today. Yeah, but sometimes, man, you'll just fall flat in your face. Well, got to come back with something. Yeah. Tough, bro.

It's a scary place. Always hate when, you know, you'll have the people who are like, make a scene and, like, call you out. if you're not responding for a while. I'm like, who the fuck are you? Yeah, that's a known. I just make my presence known.

I've been in some fantasy football ones where it's like, you know, it'll be 12 guys. I only know like four of them, maybe. And like of the four that I know, I'm probably really only friends

with like two of them, you know? Yeah. So I'm like, okay, I'm in this. I have 10 numbers that I don't even know

or want to save and you guys are blowing up about a bunch of stuff I'm not gonna contribute I don't fucking care I'm in the league I don't know you I don't want to joke around with you and then like in some of those

I'll get like they'll call me out on it you know because I won't respond for like two weeks I'm like motherfucker I'll just leave the group man yeah bye nah I wouldn't

that's crazy to call you out he doesn't say anything like could you even imagine sending that text I grow up yeah that's a that's a big reason why I'm not into them either. I don't have any of the people's names. It's just all numbers and I'm like, I don't even know who you are, bro. Too much. Yeah, when you get in the

group chat with the, the, most of the chat is numbers. I guess I'm back in algebra too now. See ya. Way too many numbers. I hate it. You know, it's scary though? You ever look through a, like, you ever see a girls group message? Oh. No. A place you don't want to be. Rye's big is like her group messages are on Snapchat Like she's got ones from her like college friends And college cheerleaders Yeah I know That's even worse

Oh my God My fucking husband made this noise in his sleep last night Like I just don't even want to see that bro Just taking a picture of me Like a fucking idiot Hand in pants I'm like dude I'd rather just break up with you than

see that. That is the word. The girls group message is the scariest place on earth. Can't believe I married this piece of shit. Yeah, dude. And girls will send that shit in there while they like you. You know? Like in the guy's

group message, it's like, oh, I just broke up with this girl like, she's like kind of a bitch, you know? That's like as far as it goes. A girl will be dating you and send a picture, like a bad picture of you in the girl's group message. You'd be like this fuck. It's like you guys are still together.

Oh, man. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. The farthest extent, like your friend's group chat of if a relationship ends is just like,

I just didn't really work out. And you're all like, oh, sorry, man. Thank you to you, bro. Sorry, man. Yeah, right. Not even that. It's so funny.

So what's the play in this Pacers game tonight? Yeah. Do you think we can get in a suite or what? And it's like, I don't think I'm going to go, bro, just broke up with my girl. And three dudes are like, pussy. And you're like,

all right, see you there. All right. Yeah. Well. Nobody knows how to get you past a breakup more than your guy friends, dude. Like,

they won't console you, but they'll just be like, yo, we're going to fucking, we're going to wild beaver tonight. Like, it, dude. Just a blip on the radar, man.

Yeah, nothing. It's almost like same inconvenience as if like what the Uber cancels and you gotta find another one. It's just. Same level. All right. God, this is an annoyance in our fucking life.

Yeah. Guys don't give a shit. It's so funny. Half the group doesn't even know you're dating her. Whoa, what? Catch me up. Nah, nothing catch you up on Stun. Okay, perfect. No time wasted.

Yeah, you gotta have one of those, man. I've been thinking about it too. It's like, you know, whenever you watch a documentary or you watch a show like Dateline or anything like that and it's like showing back in the day. like they found a box of letters and a diary from Michelle. And it's like, you know, fully written out diary and everything about like what's going on. Like that's their paper trail back then. Like our paper trail for us when we're gone is just going to be our stupid fucking group chats.

Yeah. Like the dumbest memes and tweets that we sent in there and like, it's just ridiculous. this. Wow, he sent that. TikTok. Guy was fucking nuts. Right. Back then it was like, wow, he really loved her.

Now, oh man, he couldn't stand the Broncos new uniforms. That's his legacy. Yeah, he just sent it it while he was taking a shit too. Like I sent this the other day.

Teacher, turn to page 23, page 23. So fire. God, damn, I missed that. That's it. That's a paper trail. Yeah, that's all I want. That's, that is perfect. Thank God we live in this era. Man, why's making a pot roast

tonight and it smells so good. Already cooking, bro. That is magical. So do you have, the old crock pot? Do you have, not bad for a fat guy. I think about that a lot now and I laugh so hard. Every time, every time I do anything, I'm like, not bad for a fat guy. What were you about to say?

So you had to charge your phone. It's like midday. Do you have like an older iPhone or did you do the old I forgot to charge my phone last night? Because that happened to me the other day and I was struggling. Man, so honestly, because I'm at home all day, every day, pretty much. And so is right, like, I just take my phone up to bed. I just go no charger at night. That's crazy.

That is crazy. Wow, the freedom. It does feel good. I have my charger. We have multiple chargers downstairs in the living room where we're chilling and doing stuff most of the day. And so I'm like, I just take up to bed, whatever. Even if it's like on 38% or 28% or whatever, like,

I'm going to wake up, have my coffee, plug it in, and then I'll just have it down there. And it'll, I'm a daytime charger. I'm a day charger. Different, bro. You're built different. I can't stand when I wake up in my phones, like on like 17. I'm like, oh, my God, I'm a piece of shit. It is a weird way mentally to start the day.

But when you have a year and a half old and a two-month-old, everything you do is weird. Everything kind of just goes out the window. It's all wacky. why is it so hard? Like I'll be laying in bed It'll be like midnight About to go to sleep Dude it's so hard for me to reach over

Grab my charger It's like the hardest thing I've ever done in my life Because some bullshit always happens with it Like the You try to reach too far You pull it a little too hard And then all of a sudden the box comes out of the wall And you're like fuck

Then you get up You hit your knee on your dresser You're like God you know and for my sake if I do that then one of the kids is there and I wake up the kid then Rye's pissed at me I got the baby awake

my phone's no closer to be in charge so I'm like fuck it I'll just put it on my bedside table you're like yes Jesus bro the things I have to do to charge my the cord's not long enough

so then you're like dude short cord short cord no contacts I look like a 78 year old trying to read a menu at a restaurant. We might have a new modern Seinfeld here.

There it is. Short cord? Short cord. Short cord, Jerry. She got the short cord. Buy a new iPhone. The cord. They might not even give you a charger anymore. I don't think they do. There you go. There's another like...

Yeah, you got to buy another one. They don't give you a cord. Jerry. Kramer's got the whole living room full of them. Six feet long. No, he's got... He's got the...

that extra long one from the gas station. He's like, I know a guy. And it's, uh, it's, it's, it's, it's like pink. The, the, the, the cord is like tethered so much. Do I wrapped in whatever that is, like, it's indestructible. The jump rope. Right. He's like trying to show you could like run over it with a car and it'd be fine. All right. So, when you see that in two weeks, uh, there you go. Clubhouse, early sneak peek. Here go. There you, there it is. Two weeks. Yeah. Give it two weeks. Yeah. Give it two weeks. well that but it just takes that long to do it yeah day day charger day charger for sure uh tv on at night sleep timer sometimes never i try to be good about it because of the kids and because of riley

and whatnot and i just but yeah if i had my ways i would but i got to say i'm as i'm old getting older. Like the other night, I actually came up to bed and Frank was, he's real clingy and stuff right now. So he just wants to sleep with us sometimes. And like him and Riley were already asleep. And the lights were off and the TV was off. And usually I would come in and fire up the TV and just like, throw something on. But I was like, you know what? I was going to put the phone down, leave the TV off and just try to fade off. Just stare at the ceiling. I did Wow you think about a lot

In those 17 minutes I know But honestly that's when some of my best Like sketch ideas and stuff Come about Really at night When I'm like trying to go to sleep And I'm like have my eyes closed literally

And I'll start thinking about that stuff And I don't know if it's just because it's like Uninterrupted I'm not looking at a screen I don't have any sound And I'm just like fully like locked in and playing stuff out in my head. But yeah, like, I'll roll over and

I'll be like, who's that? Or what are you looking at? You know, because she's still awake, whatever. And I'm like, because I'll roll over and I'll like type into my notes, some idea for a sketch or a bid or whatever it is. So I don't forget it. Yeah. The process.

No, that's funny to hear because I was thinking about that the other day. And it's like when I'm almost dreaming, I think of some wacky-ass shit. And I'm like, damn, that's a not a bad idea. It's so weird. Just roll over, rip that charger, rip that footlong charger out of the wall. That's it, bro.

Yep. Oh, what a great idea. Go to go to your phone. It's dead. I can't. I've been charging the whole time. Yeah. Let me plug this in and stub your toe.

When you get one of those faulty chargers? All of them. well yeah but you know we're seemingly it's plugged in you check it you check the brick is plugged in the box is plugged into the wall and you plug it into your phone and it just nothing happens but then as you're getting ready to take it out it like starts to charge and you're like oh okay and then you leave it and then it uncharges you're like this is the worst fucking thing imaginable it's insane dude that's the kramer cord right there the one that's like I don't know why this thing isn't charging it's 18 feet long in the core

Ford's paying here. Like, I can see why it's not charging, bro. It's from the, it's from the Speedway gas station. Like, dude. Those gas station ones try to sell you so hard. And you're like, oh, that's not bad. Breaks within a week. It just doesn't charge in like a week's time.

There's nothing wrong with this box or this outlet or this cord. It just chose to stop working. Yeah. Or it just maintains it, you know? Oh, the maintain charger. Get the fuck. out of here. That's all of them. If it's not an Apple, like, iPhone charger from the store, bro, it's maintained gang. You go from 16% plug it in for four hours, 18%. I'm like,

especially in the car. Every car charger is a maintain. Oh, that's maintained. Everybody, I think that everybody knows that now. You're not getting any juice from the old cigarette lighter, bro. Especially when you're fucking on Instagram half the time anyways. playing music spilling coke on the outlet dude I'm just doing everything else in my car but driving dude yeah dude that's a that's a 60

you're lucky if you start at 17% in yellow and you're lucky if you get it to above 20% on that yeah I don't know it doesn't have to be low battery mode it never gets out of low battery never you got the short and you got the maintain

those are the two your phone dude in the computer one for me I plug my phone in my computer maintain gang I'm like all right oh yeah okay fine

if it's not connected to it an actual fucking power plant it's not gonna charge I guess cool yeah unless it came from Steve Jobs veins on the Apple

concourse and compound it's plugged in the Steve Jobs ass it's not charging it's maintained you just see how long that would be interesting see how long you can just maintain

at like 18 to 20% your phone never gets so bad your phone never gets so bad it's just plugged in for like 75% of the day bro how about when

your phone drops to below 20% and you haven't charged it for a little bit and all of a sudden it starts to get to like the dirders it's like it's like a drunk-ass phone.

Everything's moving slower. Like even when you're trying to swipe up the, you know, when you're trying to get rid of windows, it's taken too long. Oh my God. And then you get the storage full message and you're like, I can't.

I just, I gotta go. I got to go. But I can, if I could not have to read one thing ever again for the rest of my life. Storage full. I'm like,

oh my God, bro. Are you serious? storage full it looks so bad you ever get somebody else's phone and try to take a picture and it says storage full I'm like oh dude

I don't want to be in your life anymore like ill horrible what's going on with Clubhouse we got any emails yeah that's what I was about to I was about to get to this is from Natalie and her subject is

Brad Favre yes hey Ben and Joey a long time listener of the Shuff, first time emailer, huge Bills fan here, as well as 1% female listeners, and want to ask your opinion if you have any

on Buffalo football. What are your thoughts on Steve Tasker in the Hall of Fame? Second, who do you think is the best Buffalo quarterback of all time? Doug Flutty. Unrelated, but what was your favorite school of in high school? Slap my ass while squirting me with mustard and ketchup like Pinto Ron while we yell Brett Farve and jump into

the folding table and the gravel parking lot off of someone's truck bed outside the stadium. Best wishes, and wish I could be at the Buffalo show. Oh, all good. Well, darn Natalie. All good. Next time. Plus, I'm going to Buffalo soon.

Oh, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I told people about that. Like, when I was like, mean people and stuff afterwards. Because obviously these guys and Johnson Schmiddy came up and I was like, he's coming here. And yeah, so.

Steve Tasker met him a couple times Good dude Yeah Hall of Fame for sure Uh Ben said Doug Flutty It's not a bad call Flutie for sure Got

You know the EJ manuals of the world What a boss Tyrod Taylor's Team Mobile Hey Hey hey T mobile Best backup quarterback of all time

Said it meant it. Put them on any team in the NFL best quarterback on the field. You feel pretty good about him coming into the game. Oh, you feel better about him than the starter.

You feel as best as you possibly can for a journeyman backup quarterback. You don't feel that great when you're the number one quarterback and T-Mobile's the backup. You're like, bro, if I do, if I like get a, like if somebody strips me, like he's coming in,

Like, dude, T-Mobile's nipping at your heels all game. Like, you can't have any. That's not a good feeling as a starter. Like, damn, I can't mess up once. Because the crowd wants T-Mobile. Everybody kind of wants T-Mobile. They like the underdog. You know what I mean?

I like Tyrod Taylor because he was the Bill's quarterback when they switched away from, like, they started the transition to switch back into like good-looking uniforms. He looks great in a uniform, too. Yeah. The visor. He just has the accessories down.

He has his swag together, big time. Favorite school, then high school. I'm wondering, so like, what do you think she means by that? Like, uh, school event. I have one that can. I don't know what she means. Maybe like the consensus, like, whenever, maybe like a pep rally or something. some shit.

Yeah. Is that what she means? Like when the whole school gets together, is that what that is? Probably, probably. Dude, my favorite school event,

it, I never, it never happened with me, but I loved grandparents' day just because it was so, like, such a, like,

I would never know when it was, and then it always happened. And I was like, today's grandparents day? Like, bro, yes, classes are like seven minutes. There's old people in the school, bro.

the whole day is a wash. Wash. Sophomore setup crew. Sophomore setup crew. Let's get the chairs and tables. I was like, all right, bro. Doing a weird like worksheet combined about history with grandparents that aren't even yours. Yeah.

And I never had my grandparents there. So I was just like chilling all day. Bro, I always had all. I was lucky. I always had all four of mine. And they would come. And then we would always adopt like one of my buddies, you know, who didn't have one.

Yeah. I would love, I would love to rock with, I'd love for you to adopt me for a grandparents day. I'd be a good like adoption child. I'd be like, yeah, hell yeah.

Grandparents day was dope. Dude, we had something called walkathon. Oh, that was an incredible day. Never did it. It was, you had to like, yeah,

I think you had to be able to like contribute like 100 bucks. The idea was that you would raise money and it would go towards a charity. And so through the raising money, it was like wanting the kids to like ask people and their families or in their, you know, their neighbors or whatever to donate, contribute. And then once you hit that mark of $50 or $100 or whatever it was, then that day you just walked like two or three miles the whole school. And that was pretty much the whole day, what it was. Like you got to be out of uniform where we went. you're outside. It was always the fall. Yeah. So then it was like nice ass weather.

And then it was like a half day because you're just doing the walkathon. And then you're out. And so then you'd be able to go get lunch or whatever before football practice. Great fucking day. Another wash. But yeah, then you had the people like Ben who just like wouldn't raise the money, didn't care. And we'd just sit in a classroom and like do homework. I was like, wait, what if we don't raise the money? They're like, you just do, it's like, study hall all day. I was like, that sounds fucking awesome. That actually sounds better. I was like, I got shit to do anyway. What do you mean? I don't know. Yeah, but the funniest shit always happened in those because you're with all your

boys, everybody, like that's a chance. You got to put in some work with the girl that you liked, you know, like outside of the classroom. Big flirt section. Big flirt section. Flirt session, right? You have a chance to really make an impact, right? Get some laughs, you know? Like, exactly. That's supposed to. always a great day. That's fun. Yeah, dude, it's, I think, I can't remember if I told you about it or not. But apparently, like, kids today that are in high school just, like, don't go to sporting events.

No. Which, like, when we were in high school, I mean, like football games and basketball games and, like, that was, that was it, dude. You, like, you were there. I mean, I remember a lot of people didn't go. to the basketball games and football. But it's kind of like, just go. It's like a party. Right.

Like you wear some cool shit. Like you're like right there. Like your, your homies on the team. Like it's like lit. What do you mean? What are we doing after? You know, let's go to Chick-fil-A.

Like. Right. We're going to go to steak and shake and loiter for three hours. Yeah, big time. We're going to smoke a black and mild in the parking lot at Circle K gas station. What are you doing? How are you not going to that?

Yeah, no, like, I guess it's, like, they just don't go. Like, they try not to have games on Saturdays because Friday attendance is already low. Like, they have a hard enough time getting kids to go. But at least if it's on a Friday, they're already there during the day. So there's more of a chance to get them to go. But they said, like, on a Saturday, there'll be like eight students in the crowd. No, I would, I wouldn't go on Saturday either, to be honest. I never went to, like, a wrong college or a high school basketball game on Saturday.

I was like, no, bro. But Friday? Yes, you did. Yes, you did. No, I don't think I did, bro. Unless it was like regional's, I'm there. But if it's like we're playing Perry. You know, a home game on Saturday, you weren't going to that?

Yeah. I'm pretty sure they're all on Friday. Like, there's a middle of the day. Okay, okay. Then I'm with you then. I'm with you. But I do remember, like, they play like the close school. They played Perry on like a Saturday at five.

p.m. I'd be like, no. This is so foreign to me because it's like, yeah, I mean, I felt like, I remember feeling bad. I remember feeling weird and like I was doing something wrong. If it was like an away game at Whiteland and I'd be like, I don't think I'm going to go to that one. But then while the game was going on, I'd be like, damn, this is, I should be there probably.

Ew, yeah. It was fun. It was fun. It was fun. It was really fun going to the away games. Maybe more fun. Yeah, different environment, road trip a little bit. Because in high school, if it's, the school's 35 minutes away, it's like, we stop another gas station too? Yeah. I mean, shit.

Yeah, anyways. You're like walking through their like hallways and stuff in the other school. You're like, what is going on? This is what they do here? Like, we're poor. Yeah. Maybe there's, hey, there's some, there's some different girls there, right? You got their girls there.

You look in the student session. Student section across the court. you're like, that girl is so hot, dude. Oh my God. Oh, my God. Can't wait until college, man. Let's go ahead. Roar.

Bro, they're going to the concession stand. You want to go? From Dan. The best dubbs team, West Virginia. Steve Sladen and Pat White. I mean, come on. Tough to argue. They are clearly the number one

best NCA football team of all time on the game. But you can't be them because they're too good. That speed option game. Whoa. Insane. That would have been like, what?

09. 08.09. Pat White, Steve Slayton. And they had like that big fullback too. Like, they're a perfect team. I always remember watching them and just being like, really? West Virginia? Yeah, that was cool.

Like Pat White. West Virginia? I mean, I loved watching them. I love watching them. I love playing with them on the game. I love watching their YouTube highlights still, but it was just like, huh, how did that work out? Rich Rodriguez, bro.

Rich Rod. Yeah, I love that. They beat Georgia in that bowl game. Hey, what bowl game was that? Do you remember that? That was the orange bowl. They really put them on the map, dude. I think it was.

But that's when I was like, oh, they're for real. Like, they put up like 40-something points on Georgia. Our rule out of my friend group was you can't be West Virginia. There's a whole thing. Like if you're West Virginia, like you're kind of a bitch. Like you're going to win. Oh, yeah. Damn, maybe it wasn't the Orange Bowl.

What was it? West Virginia, Georgia, 2009. Oh, it was a Sugar Bowl? Oh, West Virginia and the Sugar Bowl. That is so good, man. West Virginia and Virginia Tech. I love both those teams. They're so, like, they're so excited.

and they're always in the Sugar Bowl. It's just like, oh, that feels good. The late night game on the, on New Year's Day. Love that. With the crown, the crown lights and the helmet. Is that the late night game on New Year's Day? Sugar Bowl?

Usually, because the Rose Bowl is at like five. And then after the Rose Bowl, they kick it over to, because you go from bright, sunny, awesome, all that, to then just completely pitch black. New Orleans. I love it. I love it. With Georgia wearing the black jerseys. It's a little sweet treat, dude.

The Sugar Bowl. It's like dessert. Sugar Bowl. Yeah, let's go get some Skittles. Yeah, dude. It's your little late night. Let's run the Dairy Queen real quick before the Sugar Bowl, bro. And then just watch West Virginia just speed options somebody. Dude, it's always like a 45, it's always a shootout. Dude, I love the sugar. Oh, yeah.

Sugar Bowl's nice This is from Bill Says doesn't have that far In them These guys Fell is a huge fan of the Shuck This one's for Johnson I've been watching your dating shows

Just for the Johnson jokes But also invested in your love life As well I guess Watching you go O for 2 In the island brought me back To the 2014 NFC championship game Where the Packers Butterfingered The Onside kick

That would have gotten us to the Super Bowl In season three I've seen you make some strides throwing up a few Hail Marys like our boy Favre But what are your guys' best sports

comparisons to bennies or both of your dating lives? Joey, I can't wait for your Green Bay show. I'll be the guy and C-11

screaming his face off. Slap me with a juicy brought worse while I'm in nothing but a cheesehead with love, Big Willie. Let's go. What a voice.

Love it. Great email. Putting it all together. Love it, man. Literally. Uh, What are you guys best sports comparison to bennies are both of your dating lives? Uh, my, my, my, for my dating life, it's probably like that like reverse pass.

That's like perfection. And then the wide receiver like throws it back to the quarterback, but it's like way over his fucking head. It's like, oh, we almost had him. I'm trying to think of a player. because it's, you know, your first season on F-Boy, you came in, you stole the show, you were the sweetheart, and then you won everybody over, but you lost.

But then from that, then you end up becoming the villain. So I'm trying to, not the villain, but like, you switched over. Yeah, yeah. So I'm trying to, I'm trying to think of a player's story arc like that where it's like, oh, man, yeah, they were so close, we like them a lot. Oh man, he went there, man. Damn. That's nice.

You kind of, you kind of LeBroned it in a way. Why did I want to say? You kind of LeBrona in Cleveland because, you know, you were LeBron Cleveland and you took over the show and everybody loved you and they wanted more, they wanted more Benedict,

and then you switched and you went to Miami. and like you still made it you still made it far but everybody was just like oh man he's he made he went to he switched to the heat he's kind of on the bad side now yeah

that's a that's a really good one man that's really good and plus like I mean everybody loves LeBron so you can't hate on that I can't hate on that that's sick and LeBron and Miami was that story was cold bro Lebron that first year like he was still like slugly

Oh, yeah. Yeah, no, I mean, they were the heatels, remember? Like, everybody wanted to see them. White hot. And then you just had people that are just like, oh, he's the, he's in his villain era. He's in his villain era. Yeah. You know. That's really good, bro. I would say, I would say as a married man of almost five years now, looking back, I'd say mine is like, uh, I'd say mine has been like Matt Stafford. Like, I, had a, you know, like a really bad run of failures and just not great. But then I got the one with Los Angeles. Yeah. You know, I finally put it all together, had the right support system, found the right crew. Uh-huh. And got my one. And that's all I'm going to need, right? Like, people aren't going to remember Matt Stafford for all that. They're going to remember, hey, he's got the one Super Bowl championship, you know? Yeah. Lions Matt Stafford was, man, everybody

saw the vision. He was on his grind though. You were going through. And I had some promising, you know, I was like, hey, I'm trying to show him. I'm husband material, right? Like, I'm good. Like, I'm ready to do this. Yeah. And, uh, I got a 6-4 receiver. Well, it wasn't until I got my Sean McVeigh and my Cooper Cup. You know? Yeah, throw out a little Odell Beckham Jr.

A little Aaron Donald on defense, bro. The pieces are there. That's right. Your stafford, L.A. her brother-in-law. That's her, that's her brothers. You know, that's all that. Let's do one. I know we're running along here, but let's do one more because we put that email or that, I put the Instagram out last night. So, uh, from Kevin, Hardo football move. So up boys. You guys are chatting about hilarious youth sports moments. Two quick ones for you. One, assistant Pop Warner coach in eighth grade ripped his son's mouth guard off his face mask and started returning kicks with everyone

and full pads and helmets because he didn't like the way we were tackling. Prentices, pretty sure this was illegal. Two, idiot kid and Little League missed a fly ball, hit him in the face, gave the dude a frozen bag of peas for his eyes, came back to the dugout, and he was eating the peas on the bench.

Could be a bin move. Thanks, guys. I would definitely do that. Like, what do you, just... Whatever, you're not crying anymore. Fine. But the peas thaw out, and you're like,

are pretty good. I say it bad and my nose doesn't hurt as bad anymore. Okay. And like dude, icing your like fucked up face hurts more than the face, you know? Like you ever have to ice your neck? Yeah. You're like,

Jesus. Yeah. It's too cold and the pressure on it hurts. Yeah. No, I get that. That was a good one, Kevin. Thanks. My kid's screaming upstairs now because he just woke up from his nap. So I probably should go check on that. All right. We can wrap it up. We can wrap it up. Go get up. These guys.
