Why are they so baggy? They're just so good, man. I don't know. I love them. Nobody else does it like that. it only works for him I don't think anyone else has even tried it I guess that New England Patriots red

does pop a little different though like when Edelman used to have red gloves I was like oh I think it would I think it really only works for a pass rusher like that really yeah like his whole aesthetic The single digit pass rusher with the baggy sleeve.

Like, it just works. It just works. And like a guy like that's always on the screen. Like every single time you look at the TV, he's right there. Always there. Not that this is a sports podcast or anything. What's up, bro? That's true, man.

Hey, why don't you do push Tickies real quick. Raleigh. A shuck coming up. Brolly. Brolly, he's doing all his own sound effects today. Raleigh, Thursday. Can't wait to see you guys. merch, pickies after the show, let's party.

Austin, Texas, October 10th, San Diego, November 7th, and Phoenix, Arizona, December 5th. I'll see you guys there. Tickets, Benedictpolicey.com. Hell yeah. And I sent to Ben this morning. People who run our stuff sent over some dates, some time, some cities of what we're looking to lock in for these guys on the road. So it won't have anything until, we won't have a show until October if as is, just because it's been, you know, we've been trying to get it figured out. And we want time to push tickies for everybody out there. So September's like two weeks away. So September is off the board. We're going to be.

going to fire it up there in a spooky thizzin. So that's coming. That's that that is very much like Charles Barkley said, them boys coming. That's coming. Yeah. So in the meantime, it gets to Bintz show and then we'll let you know as soon

as we know on these guys. Bro, I was in I was in Saratoga over the weekend. Let's talk about it. New York. And it was a hell of a time. A big shot. I went out there by myself. I didn't have any plus one. Like, they gave me a plus one. I had a full table up in the clubhouse. Not TG Clubhouse. I wish it was TG Clubhouse. But at the track there, I had a full table. And I was just there by myself because like Riley couldn't come. My dad couldn't come. Like dial on a few other people couldn't come. So I was like, oh, I'll just do this myself. Whatever. And best weekend in your life. And then I run into. It really, it was a real you weekend, man. Like I went out there.

I got out there Friday morning, early-ass flight on Friday. I get out there. And the whole day, I just bounced back and forth from like three different coffee shops. Just like work editing videos, writing. Like just, it was, it was really great, honestly. And then Saturday, I go to the track because I got my obligations. I got to do there. Big shout out to Jared and Peter from Saratoga.

and Matt, they took me under their wing. They ran into me. Whoa, dude, what are you doing here? I saw it on Twitter. You were here. I love your stuff, blah, blah, blah, blah. Took me in, right? So I had buddies the whole day.

Oh, you ran into the boys. They adopted you. Yeah. They adopted me. Do what you do at a racetrack, a horse track. You know, we were drinking. We were betting on ponies. We were running.

But anyways, I went out to the start finish line with Jared for one race. And that's like right there, right? And that's where a bunch of the public and everybody goes. And man, there was clubhouse everywhere. There's people stopped me all over the place. Shut up. Of your podcast. There was a there was a burpee girl.

No way. Who stopped me. And a horse race? Oh my God. You. Yeah, they're like, she was like you and Benny's podcast. Oh my God. It was like a burpee girl in Saratoga.

We got reach. It was insane, dude. We got reach. Took a pick. So shout out to everybody at Saratoga over the weekend. It was a hell. I went into it a little skeptical because I was just like, man, I might just be Steven Glansberg in this like by myself here looking like,

like a putts. And you guys took me in and we had a great freaking time. And it was awesome. And yeah, so I just want to let you know. There's a few people that I saw that actually, so Friday night, I went to a Mexican restaurant by myself that was right behind my hotel. Perfect. Perfect. Yeah, I went, sat at the bar, got a couple of margs, was just chilling. But I ran into a guy who he listens to the show too. And he was like, oh, dude, I went and saw, me and my wife went and saw Benny in Albany when he was there. Oh my God. Yeah. And I was like, Oh, man, that's awesome. And so, yeah, dude, it was just a hell of a time up there in upstate New York over the weekend.

That's insane. That sounds like the best weekend ever. Just running into clubhouse all willy-nilly. Willie-nilly running into clubhouse, making a little money, losing a little bit of money, drinking. Like, didn't have dad duty all weekend. Was in a new area. You know, I had my hat game going. Like, it was a great time.

I saw that. How did you feel about the fit? Can we rate the fit? fit? I felt real good because like it was, you know, it's not like Churchill where, you know, or like the derby where a race like that were like you really got to like full suit, full everything. Like most of the people that were at Saratoga were honestly just in like cargo shorts and polo shirts, you know? So I was like, what though? I didn't get to hear that. I know. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. I say this every time I pop a, pop a drink.

Get her up. Okay. There we go. Yeah, so I felt I felt good I felt it was like a I felt it was like an 8.3 out of 10 Can't really get any better than that I was comfortable Can't really get any better than that Your own hotel room

Yeah Just sitting there And just laying there on a bed with your feet crossed What'd you have on? ESPN News Remember ESPN News? New Days Yeah the ESPN News

studio It was like smaller. I loved ESPN news, bro. So many letters down there. ESPN news. So many scores too. That's all it was. It was just scores.

I know, but it was like when something stupid was on SportsCenter and something or ESPN and something really dumb was on ESPN too. You could always count on ESPN news to just like have what you wanted. I was like there's no like, that's I'm saying. There's no, there's no BS.

It's just like boom, boom. Sometimes it's like only four things that replay them. there but those are the four things I want. It was like, it was, it was like a sports center TikTok before TikTok. Like you just go there and you just like know what you're getting. It's quick. It's easy. I know, man.

Hey, the ESPN2, the old ESPN2 logo with that big two. How sick was that? You don't know what I'm talking about. You don't know what I'm talking about. Oh, 100% I do. Okay, okay, okay. Never mind. Just remember going to ESPN news just to wait on the bottom line and see the Cubs box score and see if Sammy Sosa hit another home run.

Just me watching. Dude, hey, this is the most, this is the most, this is the most not a sports podcast thing of all time. But our outside linebackers coach in high school is like, you got to be able to read the guard and you're in your your gap. I don't know. It was like you're supposed to be able to see two things. once as an as an outside linebacker. I don't know what they were. And he's like,

you can train yourself by watching ESPN and watching the bottom line at the same time. That's what his analogy was. I was like, I don't play linebacker, but I'm doing that tonight. It's just good to have that skill. I'm just watching Kenny May.

And I'm like, the Angels won. All right. Cool. Padres lost. Way too many baseball games. Okay. Check.

All right. Mike, or Troy Gloss hit a home run. Okay, cool. Who is he? Got it. Dude, also, well, I took a couple notes, do you inspired me last week. So I took a couple notes,

but so we can get into those a little bit. Can't wait. Also, went to the doctor last week. I've dropped 17 pounds, dude. On what? You look good. But like, how? How'd you do it?

Well, like, it's been like a pretty common theme, like over the last like six months or so, I'd say, six, seven months, like different relatives or different people that I'd meet up and like have dinner with or even some people online actually have been like, man, you slimmed up, man, like you look good. What's, you know, you lose weight. And I was like, I mean, I think so. Like I see myself in videos and like on screen with these guys, you know, but like. And so what it comes down to is just like, uh, uh, me and I eat a lot cleaner, like eat at home way more often, just like making chicken and like rice and veggies and like steak and shit like that. And then also like maybe once every two months at the most right now in my life for the past seven, eight months, I'll have like an actual bender with the boys. Whereas like when Frankie was just born or not being born like back in 2020, 21, 22, like that was a pretty like multi-week occurrence. where I was like starting to drink beer at noon and was not getting home until like midnight.

And so I just don't do that anymore. What was your, what did you do at noon? If you crack one open at noon, like what's on, what are you doing for that day? Is it like a college football day? Yeah, like me and me and the boys are just like meet it somewhere on Mass Ave, probably like World of Beer at like noon. Wow.

Be there for the, be there for the first slate of game. Stop in somewhere. after that for another rounder three, then go to Rath-Skeller and do it all. Like, that was pretty much it. Oklahoma State, Iowa State at World of Beer,

see at noon? Yep. Yep. Pretty much. Who's not going? Two kids under two can't really, can't really do that very often. So I've cut that out.

I only drink diet Dr. Pepper. I don't really drink like the actual soda anymore. You're off D.C.? 50. Yeah. That's like 150 calories. per soda that's gone.

I've been doing intermittent fasting. Like I won't eat until afternoon and then I'll stop eating before seven. Dude, you're more psycho than me. So I don't work out besides like going on family walks and walking to coffee shops and stuff nearby. But like I just don't drink.

I drink about a quarter of the same amount as I used to. And we eat at home with our own cooked meals way more. You guys are dialed. Yeah, 17 pounds, man. It's like, I haven't been, I haven't been this weight. Ooh. Eighth grade. Eighth grade made the weight limit.

I haven't this thin since I could run the ball in eighth grade. No, I couldn't run the ball in eighth grade. Dude, that's a fucking left guard. That's why I have body dysmorphia, dude. The running back weight limit in eighth grade. Such bullshit. Dude, give it one more year. You're going to be at every single Fourth of July pool party in the area.

Just grow because of my body? Grilled chicken guy. Now I'm cool to go to the rooftop party. Yeah. The pool rooftop party. Just you and Halliburton at the wit. Yeah, right, dude. Halberton runs of the crowd.

I don't really get down with. So, you know, you know, you know how it goes. You'll be there. You'll be there. Yeah. All right. You got any notes this week? Let's see.

I think I just burnt my, okay. I've got a, no, I don't. All it says is Matthew Judon's red sleeves. And if I could walk on water. And that's it. Go ahead. Hey, just Jason Werner flying over the, is flying over the line of scrimmage with that song playing.

If I could walk on. You know what I'm talking about. You know what I'm talking about. just what what went into like highlight tapes before before like when you really had to make a highlight like tape before like people knew how to use i movie and stuff like that or those are the real geniuses right there splicing shit on vhs how are they doing it nobody knows i remember we like we hired like a we hired like a really good like uh digital videographer guy for our like senior season.

Never saw the video. It's like, you know, you raise a bunch of money. You know, you raise a bunch of money for some reason before like your senior football season to like pay for, I don't even know what. Pay for the hot dogs after the game. I was like, what are we raising the money for? Like, what are we paying for? I don't know.

Like they bust us to the games. We're not getting new uniforms. Like, what are we? What was all that money for? And I think like literally maybe, maybe. like $6,000 we just gave to this guy to film all our games on a DVD. The most mid-season ever didn't even see the DVD. I think the only thing I remember about.

Reminiscent podcast. No, no. The only thing I remember about that entire year was just repainting the whole entire locker room. That's the only thing I remember about senior year of football. We did it for like two weeks. Right. Best two weeks in my life.

Not that it's a reminiscent podcast. But yeah, you guys' senior year was pretty just kind of like nothing really happened. Like it happened, but nothing really happened. Nothing. The least personality of all time. I was like, did we even, we didn't even make a dent in anything? We're not no, no, I'm just going to shut up. Yeah, it's all right.

We can let it. Senior superlative, though, most athletic. Just saying. Nice. That was yours. Huh? That's what you got? Most athletic.

Yeah. No. Just the most like, let's just give them something ever. All right. Here's the notes that I have from over the weekend. Can't wait. Number one.

I.U. Black helmets with just the eye and the you, like side by side. Should have never went away from it. luckily a highlight clip of antoine randallel house and like an option uh pitch that he kept for like 60 yards showed up on my twitter and he was wearing those uniforms white pants red jerseys or crimson whatever and black helmets with the circle logo with the eye and then the you a little bit underneath it whenever i see those yeah i'm like is that even what team is that that's a good look man it's a good look for indiana they're going back to it they have

It have it now. They have black and red. I don't know if they have that logo though, sadly. They wear black helmets. Is it starting this year? I think they did last year. But they still have the old logo. They're never going to go back to that I you logo. I don't know why. It was so cold. Dude, this. Oh my God. All right. Let me share screen here. You can do that? I don't know if I can. but I have to try because this picture just showed up. Damn it, where did it go? I usually just do it on my phone because I have no idea how Zoom works and I never want to know.

Yeah, but this is, I think this is worth. I think this is worth trying to figure this out here. Nope, actually, no, it's not. So I'm just going to find it on my phone, just like you said I should. I see right here there's an all black uniform with the crimson helmet, but yeah, I don't think they're going to the old black helmets mistake it's just so funny how everything's going back to what it was obviously this is uh this is blurry but i think you're going to get it oh yeah it's all i think about it's all i think that's how you dude that's how you

those numbers perfect randall l randallel l in the end zone celebrating with that black helmet with that logo Hey, how'd they get them? How'd they get them? I know. I know. That's perfect. How'd they get them?

And who else was even on that team? No one. I don't think anybody. I think he was just a one-man wrecking crew. Oh, I didn't even notice this too. Some real nerd shit. The Indiana is like slanted as well. You see it's got a little curve to it right there on the centerpiece of the chest.

That's how they should all be. And they're. sports dorks who talk about uniform. I don't really... Dude, it's the only thing I want to talk about it ever. Is it nerdy to talk about that? I don't know.

It's like fashion. Everybody shut up. But every... Like now it just says Indiana is so big. I'm like, no. I can talk about it forever. I'm gonna shut up. You know what's a weird...

What's a weird phenomenon that's going on right now? And maybe you have some different uniform insight into it since this is really your world. What is with everybody going to the... blocky straight across nameplate

on the front of the chest I know I think Nike is like literally I feel like every school has an alternate of that Purdue I'm like that's not

come on I hated when they when Purdue did that I was like dude no the lions I'm like I think like

everybody's everybody's going back everybody's doing throwbacks you know what I mean like back to like classic

Stripes, stripes on pants. Everybody likes it. It's clean. But when you really think about throwback uniforms, they all did say the school name across the chest. Oklahoma State, you know, like a Barry Sanders. But like now aesthetically, it doesn't look good. But Nike's trying to like really throw it back.

And I think that's why they're doing all that. And Purdue back in the day did have that across their chest. But today they have it. And it's like it doesn't, it doesn't look good. it just doesn't fit. I know what you're saying. They had it in the Rod Woodson and like the Jim Everett days.

Like back. Like that's every day. Yeah. And on a mesh jersey that you're pulling up that you're pulling up where your abs are showing. Yeah, that looks hard.

But on a modern sleek jersey type like it is, it does. It looks weird. Thank you. Exactly. You need the little Drew Breeze. join with the numbers up high

that's oh that's hot Purdue another great example of like if it's not broke don't fix it bro like I know you got Walters and it's a new era but you really I mean the get ups that you had rolling with is pretty damn good pretty tough to beat

they've kind of got it going on everything besides the name on the chest is good I love Purdue's numbers again black and gold I mean, you can't really With the white, the white pops off so hard on that. You have to try to best that up.

Other note that I took down, which I think will be more a little bit, well, what we just talked about was very clubhouse, but this will maybe be a little bit more of even a broader reach here. I hope people just thinking that cornhole solves everything.

I hate cornhole, dude. Dude. Like, I don't even actually, I don't even really respect it that much either. Like, I'm bad at it. That's why I don't like it selfishly. But also, like, it's a tough watch. If you're not playing. And like, it's just not a good idea to do.

You ever, hey, cornhole with a girl? Just kiss your chances goodbye. So at this Mexican restaurant that I'm sitting out on Friday by myself and Saratoga, New York. York. I'm sitting next to like this, this, uh, these two ladies are probably like anywhere from 56 to 58. Yeah. And then there was a, a male with them that what, what I was gathering from over here because they were just a seat next to me at the bar, like, you know, at the bar, you're basically in on everything. What I was gathering is that they were like all friends who

had kids that grew up together and they've become like the super parent best friends, you know, with like kids who hang out together, their parents become like best friends or neighbors or something like that. So they're sitting there and they're talking about hosting some event, having some gathering on their block or on their street.

And the lady's just like, yeah, it'd be great. Like, yeah, we'll be out front. You know, we'll have tables set up for food and drinks. We'll have cornhole. And it just sparked me. I'm just like, everybody just thinks that it's like,

yeah, we'll have cornhole. okay it's nothing ticing me or is that turning me away yeah just throw two corn hole boards out there you got a graduation party that's it that's it we were we were at the state fair and you know how they have the booths you know the tents to where like companies will go out there for their PR or whatnot cornhole promo stuff dude one company brought two cornhole boards and put down in front I'm like who is stopping at your tent to playing cornhole. And you just know that in the meeting

when they're like, all right, so what do we think for state fair? We're going to have a tin out there. What do you think it would be good? Somebody's like, oh, you know, it could be fun,

you can be fun, is if we have a cornhole set up like people could stop and then we'll talk to them while they're playing cornhole. Dude, Cornhill takes three hours. Funeral in front of the casket,

cornhole boards. All right, so what are we thinking for the showing for the wake? Well, uh, while the poster boards up. Um,

we'll have the, uh, we'll have the, uh, basket there. Maybe we'll just have some cornhole to kind of get people, you know, a little lighten it up a little bit. Funeral this Sunday. There's cornhole. Oh shit. I'm going. Trying to get people at the shows. Hey, tickets this Saturday, dude. Hey, there's cornhole outside. Oh, shit, I'm going. Cornhole? Do you hear Politsi's having cornhole in front, in front of his show?

He's having what? Who you got to go? Who's playing? Who's playing? Who's playing a full game? Oh my God. Have you ever played a full game? No. I always quit. Yeah, it's inevitable that like you can't because it has that rule where like you have to win by more but you can't go over 21. So then you know, you're never winning by more than what you're supposed to and you always go over 21.

And then you got to revert back to the 13 and you're like, I've been here standing in the stun for an hour and 45 minutes. can somebody please just end this godforsaken game can we bring back throwing the frisbee like I'd rather throw a frisbee a thousand times more than play cornhole I don't have to keep track as shit what's the points

I don't know how to play don't make fun of me because I'm going to air ball every like just can we just throw a fucking like football or something vortex balls for dude that is throw football they're just you can like talk

right can we just do something without keeping score that's my whole life can we just not keep score holy shit oh my god bro we won pussy

dude oh my god can we just just shut up and throw this ball oh my god can we just not jinga

I'm like dude if I see one more jinga tower dude you know how about I just want to fucking every jinga tower every time I see a jinga tower

do I just want to wreck a dude and I don't want to kick down a jingotower I want to tackle a jinga tower like Brian Erlacker head up grab cloth that would be sweet every jing could tackleing the next YouTube video I tackled every jingotower downtown

while they're playing and shit I'm being all careful full pads dude hey hey hey the Burger King NFL theme music is going on in the background the birdie Hey what jersey

What jersey Lance Briggs I don't know Hey hey hey hey Hey All Mesh big holes Bishop DeLahan Camp Jersey You got a coach too

You're the coach I'm the player. Who is that, who's that linebacker? Who's that linebacker for the colds, dude? Pratsky. The dude from Iowa. Pat Angerer?

hey, just at every bar downtown indie, every girl. back. Oh my god. Literally smells like shit. Hey, every guy though. I don't know, man.

Ah, dude. You'd run into some hot heads. What are you going to do? I'm in full pads. Come at me, dog. I wish somebody would try me with full pads on. They're trying to like punch you and beat you up. You just like strip sack them. That's hilarious, bro.

Yeah, I don't look, look. Mouthpiece screen. So sick. Like, I want to make it clear. Like, I love, I love playing Yucre. Like, I love, I know you don't. I hate every game ever. I love playing Yucer.

I can get down with, I'm not, I'm not trying to be, you know, I don't want people to listen to this and be like, oh, these guys, they just like hate on everything. Like, that's not the, what we're saying is just that, like, everybody just thinks that you just. Yeah, and like, cornhole. And then everybody's supposed to just be like, oh, yeah. Oh, totally. That's definitely. That's it.

That's the answer. Like, no, come on. You know? No, you're right, though. You're right. I will play Jenga and play cornhole. There's games that are fun, playing Yuker, can jams fun, tossing the football. We can be active.

We can have fun, but don't just throw cornhole out there as the idea and be like, oh, yeah. Like, it's just, it's the new beer pong. You remember back when we were in high school, everybody was like, pong, dude, we could play some pong. We play some pong, we play some beer pong. Let's like happening at the party. Yeah, like you're like, I want to be in high school and I want to be in college. Like that's what you do.

You like drink beard. You play beer pong. And then you're like, oh, wait a second. Like I actually think that there's better options here. Maybe that's what I'm trying to say. There's better options. Dude, I went to a party in L.A. Like not too long ago.

Like kind of a cool party. All there was to do is beer pong still. I was like, that's it. That's all we're doing. There's music. there's just like 50 people in the backyard in beer pong that was the only and I was like there was like a photo booth but uh I was like I guess this is all it really is you're just talking to different people and playing beer pong have you ever uh have you ever done well that's another thing that's funny

is that I think my buddy Dave Damishik or someone was talking about how this evolution of like everything has to be like every like it started it out where it's like beer pong and cornhole and cool. And now you'll pop up on Instagram like I guarantee you you'll see this like a pop up on Instagram or TikTok. It's like the perfect game of the summer and it's like a mix of every single one of them.

Like you're like golfing a volleyball into a giant bucket that's set up like a cornhole like how you or dude it's like what is even what is this? I know. So I got to get a golf club

of volleyball net bowling pins huh spike ball remember the spike ball craze I was like oh man

that's a tough one for me to get into I thought you could get into pickleball I really like pickleball not a reminiscent podcast when we played it in freshman PE I was like this is sick I was like is this game like

is this a game like our like PE teacher made up with his dad or is this right a real sport it was so fun and now now it's real as shit

dude it's everywhere I got my mom a pickleball racket for your birthday like there's courts everywhere they're supposed to be in the Olympics

no way I get down with that that's like it's similar you're like okay it's like ping pong tennis like you're active

and it's not something you're playing at a party you're going to actively play pickleball yeah that's totally

different guy who goes too hard at parties i just want to i just want to be at a party yeah where it's just like nobody asks if anybody wants to play something who's got next to anything like let's just talk listen to music drink laugh like that's it dude i don't just five come on you don't want to no i don't i really i'm sorry just like it's nothing against you guys it's nothing against you guys i just i don't know i don't i don't want to do anything. It just turned, every party just turns into five guys sitting in the lawn chairs talking about Brett Favre. That's it. Nobody else there. Every party turns into that. What do you want to do then?

Just me and four other guys talk about when Brett Favav threw that pass for the Vikings. The last second. And he had a gray undershirt on from Coles. This just turns into this, every party turns into this podcast. Perfect. That's why the clubhouse continues to grow. Because everybody's like, yes, I'm tired of feeling the pressure to play fucking bags or cornhole or whatever it is. Bags. Talk about the grip.

I remember that. I did that video about Cornhole a couple summers ago. And the amount of comments I got that's like, it's bags, bro. I'm like, cool. Glad I'm not at the party with you. Bags, dude. Make me want to play it less. You can't.

Yeah, you'd be proud of me. I just totally I just I just I just I just totally backed out of a fantasy league today oh hell yeah wow I bet you feel amazing never felt better I'm not doing it so I did that Seinfeld fantasy video right yeah that was great Seinfeld you know thank you but so that video of course gets sent in the group chat of this league that I was in perfect you knew you wanted it to happen. You wanted that to happen. And so I just,

I just sent back and like, and I, you know, they talk all the time and it's, to be honest, I only know like three out of the 12 guys in the league. So obviously I have it on mute because like, I don't, what am I going to talk about in there? Yeah. But I see that and I just like wanted to reassure. I'm like, hey, like it's not personal. It's just like it was a good idea that I thought would do well. Anyways. So then these guys start kind of like coming at me a little bit like saying some shit.

And so I was just like, you know, what? I just fucking cowherd, I just go, oh, sitting three middle finger emojis left the conversation. See ya. No way. Were they guys you like, we'll see around? That's crazy. No, never.

Oh, see you then. Yeah, right. Bye. It's, it's three guys that I actually know. One of them I talk to on a regular basis, who I consider like a real actually good friend. But it was just like, they thought, hey, maybe you'd want to this to be cool. I was like,

yeah, sure, at the time. So I already had a season under my belt that I was in it. And even throughout that, they would kind of just like, you know, it was always like, if I commented in the group chat, everybody was like, whoa, hey, we finally got it. And I'm like, okay. And then today when I was like, you know what, peace. Good for you, man.

That is so true, though, in group messages. Like, do I have to respond to every sevens? Are you guys my girlfriends? friends? Like what? You guys are going to get mad at me for not responding? I've maybe responded twice in every group chat I've ever been in my entire life. And it's always the first two. What's up? Yep. This is, uh, this is Benny. Send never talk again for the rest of the whole thing. Yeah. I. Dude group chas. Sorry. Sorry you're so mad at me. Yeah, it felt good though. It felt good. So, hey, I'm excited. You're, you are coming to town. You're coming to, you're, you're coming back home, right?

Yeah, next week. Yeah. I thought it was this week. Yeah, this week. Yeah, this week. My bad. Whoops. Yeah, this Friday. And guy who knows more about what I'm doing than me. Always. For sure. Thank you for doing that. Because I have no idea. But yeah, you're right. This, this Friday. We should like join a fantasy football. they can play jingo or something. Well, I was about to say Friday night going out with some people having a little get together for my birthday.

Would love to have you make an appearance. Quite literally at a place where some of those games will be happening. So can we All right. Only if I can shows up full pads. Briggs jersey. All right.

All right. We got some catching up to do here on, uh, on TG. Can't wait. So the clubhouse. I love, I love some clubhouse questions. Team these guys at gmail.com. Uh, this is from Jesse.

Subject line, Bryant Big Country Reeves. Hey, boys. Wondering if you guys have a similar story or can relate. I live up in Canada and up going to Vancouver Grizzly games. I'll never forget one night. This is probably 0-203. Grizzlies were getting killed at home per usual. Fourth quarter comes around and my dad hits me with a, hey, let's get out of here and beat traffic. I'm disappointed, but we head towards the exits

anyways. Get out to the parking lot, hop in the truck, tune into the game and sure enough, Grizzlies are on a 210 run in the fourth. As we drive back home over the bridge, we listen to the Grizzlies win in OT. Biggest comeback in franchise history and one of the lone bright spots of their time in Vancouver. I've got two little ones now and have vowed to never leave a game early no matter the score. The trauma ends with me. Anyways, love the show, boys. Slat my ass with the Mike Bibi sweat band while I'm charging down the sideline of the warehouse with Mike Alstott and NFL Street. Man.

Jesse from Canada. Love you, bro. I know you got some traffic stories. That's, I think it's always worth leaving early. Because that only happens like one one out of every 100 times you've ever gone to a game. Oh, they came back in one. I know there's a bad one that I regret, but, bro, me and my dad will literally go to a sporting event for one quarter and leave. What is the point of even doing that?

Because like, we got the tickets. I don't know. Like, it would feel bad if you don't use them. So you go for a little bit. But it's like, all right, let's get out of here, dude. And how does that, is it a look that he gives you, that you give him? How does it come about? I don't know.

There's just like, you hit like a certain point. It's like, all right, you're trying to get, you know, like the game's a little slow. It's not a great game. It's like 13 to 3 for way too long. It's like, let's go, dude. Things are taking too long. If you really don't like the team, it's like, cool, we did something today. I know, but isn't it like more of a hassle to, you?

you know, get in the car, go down there in the traffic, find somewhere to park, walk to the stadium. Oh, yeah, it's the worst thing ever. But it's like, what do we do? We have these tickets. What are we doing? We got the tickets. Like, even if it, dude, I'm going to be honest.

No, I'm not going to say it. Never mind. You know, no, you have to. What? Dude, even if it's like a game that like, oh, I can't wait to see the Colts play the, you know, Vikings on Christmas Eve, you know, just like the best game of all time.

I'm even like, bro, you're trying to beat track, you try to get out of here? Like, even on that game, too. Super Bowl? What do you say? It's just, dude, live sporting events sometimes. I'm like, way better on TV. Is that just me? There's a lot of, a lot of dead time. A lot of time you're looking around. You're like, yeah, what is going on here?

I had a chance to go to like the champ sports bowl in Orlando. And I was like, no. I mean, like, what? There's just something about a live sporting event. I'm like, I mean, I guess I'll just look at these people around me for fucking ever. I don't want to, dude, I'm hating on too much shit today. No, I mean, like the viewing experience at home is great. But like, if I'm going to game once or twice a year, like, I'm going to, I'm going to go, you know?

Yeah. But for the clubhouse out there, they will be happy to know, and this makes me feel even better, that I have been to two. football games and the full duration of the game with Ben. Yeah, see, like, I'll go to the whole game and have fun. But, like, I don't know, when you're just, the vibe is, I was with my dad. He was like, I don't really care. And I'm like, all right, let's just go get something to eat. Like, that's just how it was.

And that's how it is 100% of the time me and my dad go to games. But, like, when I'm with somebody else and it's like a good time, like, I'm in it. It always feels like a victory when you leave and like, yeah, you're, you can hear the cheer from behind you in the stadium and you're just like, like streets are clean right now, bitches, you know, like you're on your own.

You feel like you're in your own little world. You know what I mean? Like there is a little bit of pride that I think every guy just wants to feel when you, when you beat the traffic. But then you think about it and you're like, everybody's trying to beat traffic. So are we beating traffic? And sometimes I do get sad.

Like fourth quarter Pacers game, nobody in the stands. I'm like, kind of feel bad for these guys. guys. But let's get the hell out of here. This is from Brendan. Hey guys, love the pod. Joey, can you do an Al Michaels impression for this particular play?

Chiefs, Bill's final play of the game, Alan trying to connect with Khalil Shakur, the passes dropped in the end zone and clock runs out. Also, would your parents ever give your family the green light to leave after communion? Or did you have to stick it out at church for the whole thing? come to Toronto Canada I think it's directed towards both of us the first part was just me for Michaels

hell yeah I got some Michaels coming I got some Michaels coming Brendan so stay tuned for that a lot of Canada love today this is crazy yeah dude leaving after communion

now we're talking yeah my mom was always green light peace no looking back Get the communion.

See you never. Beating traffic. My dad, totally against it. Not leaving her. You got to get Father's blessing at them. What is this? I was going to say, is Coach Pete, like,

shaking up with Father after? Is he big into that? Coach Pete will make eye contact after church and be like, and walk out, you know, on some good game shit. I always love shaking the priest's hand after mass as if it's like

I don't know yeah like I'm telling him good game like he really appreciates that I'm just like that was great today father dude what if you're talking to a priest hey really fuck that homily up father let's get it like what if you said that to a priest dude would he be like let's go

or would he be like probably a little taken back but I'm sure there's a priest out there to get down with it you went off on that homily that though and I swear to God it's just like These things, they just happen. Like a switch just flips and like, I don't mean to do that.

I just like, you go into like auto mode and you just dive into it. In these situations like that, I like sitting here right now, I'd be like, why the hell would you shake the priest's hand? Like it's like you're congratulating him on a job well done. When I see the priest after Mass, I'm like, father, thank you. Have a great one. That was great today. What?

I think that's good. It's just like anybody after anybody does anything. Yeah, but he didn't give a shit. I think he does. A little compliment. Hey, that story about the whatever. He would like that, right?

I don't know, priests are just different ass animals. That's true. That's true. That's true. You connected, father? I don't know. Yeah, I talk about it in my act a lot about how that shit would go down where like it was all up to my mom and we'd watch every week

and like something most of the time she wasn't about it but sometimes she would be about it and it was a very exciting time leaving early be about leaving early it's crazy you know you're having a good night you know you you know you like behaved well in church when your mom when you dip after communion you're like oh shit we might get pizza later I was just about to say, at this rate, steak and shake for breakfast. At this rate, bro?

Like, we could do anything. We might go to the, we might go to, like, the Disney store in the mall. Forbidden territory for me. Why?

Just because it was so, like, I don't know, man. It was just like, I had to be so good to be able to go to the Disney store. I don't know why. It was just really annoying

for my mom or something. Sometimes, I think about having Amy as our guest, as our first guest on these guys, because I just have so many questions. She would love it. It never happened. She would love it. This is from Watson.

Subject line, Gus Ferrat. So, guys, four-time emailer. Put up the four. Put up the four. First, I wanted to thank Benny for choosing Carolina as a Cinderella team. As the Panthers fan,

we're begging for some life, too. My favorite sports commentator line comes from the greatest season for Monday night football back in 2000 when Dennis Miller was the color analyst. Some guy got laid out. Miller goes, he went Quasimoto on his melon. Best of luck and whip my ass with the 1990s NFL starter jacket. Oh, yes. Wow. That was like peak Monday night football as a child. Was that like weird ABC?

Felt like the Packers Vikings were playing every week on Monday night football. and I wish they would have. Yeah, I remember that. It was like such a big deal. My mom and my aunt would not stop talking about Dennis Miller on Monday Night Football. Like it's like a peak memory in my life. I'm like, why was that such a big deal? Because it was like new and they had like a celebrity guy on and he was probably hot.

He's just a comedian. Like he's just a comedian. He was on S&L and like a talk show host and shit. And then he's just on Monday night football. That was cool, though. I was like, oh, they're trying stuff. They're like getting crazy. Monday Night Football, dude, that's, I did always,

why didn't they keep doing that? You know how they'll have like Lil Wayne on first take every now and then? Throw him in the booth. I think they do that now with the Manning cast. Like, that's what the Manning cast is for. Yeah, that's cool. And those guys will hold it down. But you get like a, you know, get somebody wild in there.

Like Dennis Miller. It's a different vibe in the booth. Different vibe in the booth. I remember he did. I saw there was like some graphic on, I think it might have been SportsCenter. I don't know. But like he had a lot of like comments and stuff that didn't hit.

They like didn't go. They were funny. Like if you get it. But I think a lot of stuff he said bombed unfortunately. But I'm glad he like said it anyway. But I think a lot of that shit wasn't great. But I swear. to God, dude. My mom, my aunt talked about it for four and a half months. I was like, okay.

Oh my God. Are we still talking about Dennis Miller on Monday night football? Jesus Christ. What a time of my life. Three things I remember. And that's one of them. Just me? This is from Grant. I think he's a first time emailer. I don't remember seeing this name, but it says QB Songs and Brett Farr. Perfect. boys love the pod i send it to friends every chance i get i also want to thank joey for putting me on your story a few months ago seeing the frank calli endo brett farb's back song while i threw a historical bowling alley touchdown pass touchdown passing game score in the spirit of girls don't like boys girls like dan marino and brett farb's back what would be the what would god i can't read

what would be your best picks for songs with q b innuendo slap my ass with a turducken as john Madden gives out the galloping gobbler Best Grant. P.S. if you guys need a spot in the Miami Football Program, I got you. Miami Football Program. Like the Canes? Cool. Oh, my God.

I remember this story. I remember the story. Pretty simple. You tag me a Ben or something with Brett Farre making fun of them on Instagram. We're going to repost it. Every single time. Girls don't like boys. Girls like Dan Marino.

Classic hit. where have all the QB names gone Oh That's another great one Frank Tarkington Oh Randall Gunning Joe Kittna is a classic

Jeff Garcia John John John John J-O-N John John Kidna Just holding it down for every team ever Respect You just know he coaches how he coaches how school football somewhere now.

And you know, he does a great job. They may not win state every year, but you know, like, hey, the GPA on that team, those guys are opening doors for people. He's turning boys into men. Hey, we're gentlemen's from. We're gentlemen off the field in the classroom. When we get on the field, I flip switches. Boys.

Dude, no, no word. High school coach loves more than gentlemen. Shut the fuck. Dude, if I hear that one more, it's a gentleman. All right. Isn't it the worst. From Dave. He's got an answer about our Pittsburgh basketball team.

He says, what up, burpee boys? If Pittsburgh had a basketball team, it'd be a rebirth of the ABA franchise, Pittsburgh Pipers, except instead of Navy and orange, they'd be black and gold. Listen, the last week's pod while wearing my Pittsburgh Piper's shirt, that I got in the strip district while visiting the fam. Thanks guys. P.S.

station, know about this? Slapped my ass with a copy of NCAA 04 for PS2. What a guy. What a great. Pipers, though? Yeah, I like it. They probably had a really cool logo. I was thinking about, yeah, like,

when that question got asked last week, I was like, I know they have a history of professional basketball there. And I could, and I know that it started with a Pee, because everything else there besides the Steelers is going to start with the P. Panthers, penguins, pirates, Pipers. But I just couldn't put my finger on it.

But yeah, that makes sense. I can see that happening. I'm going to look up the logo here and see what we got. And I wonder what the, see, I'm wondering what the tie-in was. You know what I mean? Like why,

if it's just going to start with a P or what the reasoning was about why they went with Piper's. I don't know. Anyways. All right. Yeah, it looks, it looks kind of like a

oh Ben you just look it up it's got a ball above the eye as a dot in the eye. This thing? It's kind of like a script font a little bit yep on the jersey on the jersey I was talking about but yeah that's so bullets yep yep yep

that's what I was thinking the bullets yeah this is from George I don't think I've seen this name before either so that's cool from George NFL Jersey mental Photoshop. Hey fellas, what's a former or current NFL player would you like to see in a jersey they've

never worn before? And what number would they wear? For example, I think I'd like to see Antonio Gates in a number 80-49ers jersey because I think it just feels right. Thanks for the incredible content. Keep up the great work. Slap my ass with the force of Mark Sanchez's face into Brandon Moore's rear to the butt fumble on Thanksgiving Day 2012.

George from San Diego. Okay. This is fun. This is interesting here. Antonio Gates on the 49ers with 80 God, I've never even thought about that. Did air. Thinking, thinking.

Who do you got? I thought of one, but it's kind of whack. Let me hear it. I thought of Justin Jefferson would look good in the Tampa Bay Buccaneers uniforms. That's got to be some, I don't know why, but like, it's just like, I don't know.

I think it would just work. That's funny. You said that because I was thinking Antonio Brown and like the 1998 Vikings uniforms. Oh God. That'd be great. I don't know why. It's just the first thing it came to mind. It's always a receiver.

All right. I mean, they're going to make anything look good. You know, to be hilarious, I think, is Big Ben wearing a Ravens uniform. Ooh, that would look good. Good. That would look good. He looked pretty scary if he went visor. Yeah. He can make, he can kind of make any, you know, actually him and like, you know, he would look really bad in as like a Seahawks uniform. Put like a classic white guy in a Seahawks uniform. Sorry.

And they, hey, you know what? They look like Matt Hasselbeck who did play for the Seahawks. Loose sleeves. It's just not great. It's like Peyton Manning and the Bronco. Like, Peyton Manning needs traditional like Peyton Manning would look great in like a obviously this is

because Eli Manning but like a giant's jersey Payton Manning would rock that hard you know like some like Yeah just straight up Yep Peyton Manning in the Jets uniform

Bingo put Peyton Manning in a Seahawks uniform it's okay I'm good on that leaving that game early Peyton Manning and the all black Carolina Panthers uniforms, the silver helmet. I mean, well, they do have like some kind of traditional jerseys, but like, hey, Peyton Manning in the gradient Atlanta Falcons jerseys. Get out of here. No chance. With the weird, go home.

Peyton, yeah, you're right. Payton Manning is a good, like, he's a good prototype on this of just, if your uniform is going to, look good with anything. Imagine Peyton Manning in it. That's how you know. Or just like your offense, like your right guard. Every time like a school gets like new like sick jerseys, I'm like picture the right guard in those.

I'm like, I don't know. So true, dude. Yeah, you're like, okay, the corner and the wide receiver are, they're going to be fine. The running back. Yeah, you're going to figure it out. Big nasty 68, right guard? Come on. I don't know. Yeah. Let's do one more here from Pat.

I'm trying to go with people. And just keep emailing in if you email in a lot. But I just, there's people who are emailing in for the first time, I think. And so I want to get to. Hell yeah. From Pat. Chris Duhon is a son. Nice.

Love that name. First time, long time. Love the pod. Not a sports podcast, not a Jersey podcast. But whatever happened to vest uniforms and major league baseball, I feel like for a period of time growing up, a lot of teams were ditching the sleeves for a t-shirt underneath the vest and you just don't see it anymore. Curious, your thoughts on vest unies and baseball and some of the ones that you remember.

For me, I always like to look and can distinctly remember the Rockies, Rolls, Reds, Pirates, and Diamondbacks. Slat mask with the blue and red Sammy So submit while watching old highlights of Glenn Allen Hill hit a moon shot to the rooftops on Wavelin Avenue while Chip Carey and Steve Stone lose their mind on WGN. Oh, WGN. God, WGN was so soothing. Throw WGN on at like 5 p.m. Cubs are playing? Just grew up with that, dude. God, I love.

Flipping that on. What else was on WGN? Nothing. Like a Judge Judy? Bob and Tom was for a little bit. That's sick. Did the Bulls play on WGN? Yeah.

Oh my God. I feel like WGN that was like a that was like a pirated TV channel I was like when when I saw WGN on a TV I was like how do we where are we this is awesome that was always one of the first ones

I would flip to I flipped the channel 98 because I was like if you got WGN it's going to be 98 and I'd flip to 98 and I would see but it was that was that I feel like the good

was it was WGN a regional thing because I swear I watched WGN in Florida one time. That's a big reason why the Cubs have so many fans is because they were a national television station that you have on basic cable or whatever in the Cubs. That was the home of the Cubs. And just like how there's a bunch of Braves fans all over the place because T&T.

Oh my God, I did not even realize that. The Braves always did play on that. I think it was TNT. It was one of those. Because I can remember being on spring break when I was like 12 years old and going to WGN and the Cubs were on.

I was like, why is this, why do we have this channel? Notre Dame tried to do that with NBC. Yeah, dude. They kind of did. Does anybody else have that contract? Yeah, that's what they did. It's a dope move.

So they did. it and I think the first year they did it was 93 when NBC had that deal with Notre Dame and yeah now now I still don't think anybody does what I'm thinking about like they had the Longhorn network like different schools try to make their own type of things like that but NBC

at Notre Dame is still like the only like there's nobody who's just Fox or somebody who's just ESPN or ABC or whatever you know a little play on there but it's not like every home game like Notre Dame every home game is on NBC or Peacock now. They're trying to do that. That is such a good idea.

I mean, the oldest idea ever, but what did that guy? Such a good idea. It started in 1993. I just never really thought about it. Like, the Braves one really got me. That got me good. It was like, no wonder the, like, I always kind of like felt for the Braves. And that's why, dude.

I was like, why do I kind of like Chipper Jones for some weird reason? It's because they were just on TNT. And they were just on at my grandma's house for no reason. That's crazy. What was the question? That's it. That homie asked. Oh, the vests.

Yeah. Vests in Major League Baseball. I love them. I can only remember the Reds and Rockies. But... I remember the pirates. Pirates have the sick. Everything the pirates do is so cool.

But they don't wear the... the vests anymore. No, but there's rumors because all the Pittsburgh people I follow, there's rumors swirl about that they're bringing them back and or bringing them back the hint bread. I love

that. Whenever a logo has like a million different colors, pirates, Chicago, Blackhawks, like I think it just popped so much more. Memphis Tigers, when the tiger used to be orange. Then they just got

rid of it. Yeah. God, that was so sick on the side of DeAngelo Williams helmet, orange tiger. I was like, mm-hmm. Memphis underrated, cool school. Yeah, grew up with. You're like, oh, yeah. I love that. The pirates really have it down, though. The pirate logo, like, with the pirate guy, in that P with the spikes, I'm like, that is like a, that's like a gang hat. That's not even, like, that's how cool that is. Like, it turned into like a like a symbol. I don't know.

Yeah, you're right. The the actual pirate logo instead of just the P. The secondary logo. Too sick. Yeah. All right. Good stuff this week. Ben is in Raleigh. Where can they get those tickets?
