Starting point is 00:00:00 Hey, can you hit that ESPN MLB theme real quick? Web jams. Hey, just the quick version when you'd come in with a little highlight. Bro, I think that might have been my dad's ringtone for a little bit. It's so nice to hear. Not bad for a fat guy. TG 1203
Starting point is 00:00:36 And now I'm going to do the show because it took so long for me to set up all this stuff but I got a new haircut so I'm feeling good No hat guys It's a no hat podcast These guys
Starting point is 00:00:50 These thighs These clear eyes Because you can see them Because they don't wear hats No hats No hats Are they confident? Not really
Starting point is 00:00:59 But they have no hats On TG 123 three. Look at us, dude. Wow, our moms would be so proud. Actually, probably more proud of you than me. How come right when you get a haircut? Every woman in your life.
Starting point is 00:01:13 Oh, my word. I know the guy that I get my haircut by, we had put in a lot of work on the bullet. We had put in some run on the mullet. You know, it was a business process. He got me right at the beginning of last August, where my hair was long and just out of sorts. And he was like, okay, we're going to get it to go this way
Starting point is 00:01:31 because I got to cut a little bit shorter. to then make it all flow better into where you want to get it to. I was like, great. And I went in and I was like, he was like, all right. So we just like trimming up.
Starting point is 00:01:45 We're keeping this flow going. And I said, Brandon, I got to, I got to give you bad news. How'd that go? Was he upset? Or was he just like, hey, man?
Starting point is 00:01:57 You could tell that was a little upset. Oh, really? I've never had my. barber get that mad. Not mad, but just, like, disappointed, I think, you know, like, man, we, he was like, we literally like, it's where you wanted it. No. And I'm like, I know, I know, I know. But I said, I got a, I got a mom, a sister and a dad on my ass. I'm 31 years old. I got, I got two parents and a, and a sister who are on my ass about getting my haircut.
Starting point is 00:02:26 Dude, it's one thing you can never outgrow. Like, you can do whatever you want in your life. Dude, you could become a drug dealer tomorrow, but if your hair's long, you got to cut it. It also goes the opposite way, too. Like, you could be the biggest movie star. You could be the president, but your mom would still be like, I don't like how your hair sits like that.
Starting point is 00:02:46 It's crazy. Dude, it's the last thing I think about. Well, actually, I've done everything in my life to keep my hair, but it's the last thing I like, I focus on. I'm like, as long as it's there, I'm good. It doesn't need to look a certain way. also that was another big thing once he
Starting point is 00:03:02 which was really sad like got it all cut off you know all my locks were laying on the floor so I was already like damn that is that is sad took a picture and everything and then he he could tell he was hesitant and he was like do you know that
Starting point is 00:03:18 and I'm thinking like what is going on he's like do you know that do you know that you have gray hair how did you did you I did not They're old. On another episode of they're old, they're old.
Starting point is 00:03:48 As if we don't talk about the 1998 Super Bowl every week, they're old. True, but dude, gray hair is another level. Hey, hey, hey, I got to confess. These are my confessions. Three gray hairs in my beard. plucked them out, couldn't deal with it. Yeah, dude, it was definitely like it was Friday. I was excited about getting my haircut, you know, fresh star,
Starting point is 00:04:16 gonna be looking clean, got to have people happy with it. And he drops that on me. And it was a little bit of a twilight zone existential crisis happening, like in the chair, you know? Dude, I've been so hot in the barber chair so many times. Back sweating. Hey, do you need to like go outside cool off a little bit? Sorry, you just told me, uh, I'm going bald and I'm 25.
Starting point is 00:04:39 Yeah. So that, that, I don't know, you know, I just kept saying to myself, he probably just kept rolling his eyes because I was just like, hey, you know, Steve Martin was white when he was 30. Hey, George Clooney. It is a good look, though. Like, it's nothing to be ashamed about. But if I had gray hair, I would 100% be jumping off my balcony right now. Yeah. But I mean, like, it's going to happen probably in like two seconds. So I don't know. Yeah. I mean, the gist of what you were saying, though, early. that's kind of why I brought it up is because, and this is what my buddies echoed in the group chat when I told them, they were like, hey, better to have gray than have nothing at all.
Starting point is 00:05:21 Damn, man, but if you got, but if you're gray and you're losing it, like, dude, like, shut the fuck. Hey, yeah, but I'm not. So I'd rather, hey, I'll be Silver Fox. Let's go. Call me Silver Fox. I'm ready. Yeah, that's always a thing, too.
Starting point is 00:05:36 Oh my God, he has like salt and pepper. Hair. It's like, dude, Come on. Like, every guy. It doesn't matter how you look. Oh, my God, salt and pepper, though. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:47 Hey, right, liked it. So, there you go. There it is. There's some salt and pepper on it. Let's push ticks. You don't push ticks? Pushing tickeys, pushing tickeys. Pushing tickeys.
Starting point is 00:06:00 Here we go. We got Pots Town, Pennsylvania, March 8th. We got Plano, Texas, April 2nd, Rochester, New York. May 9th and 10th. Las Vegas, Nevada, May 24th. Get your tickies in the link below or pennypolizzi.com. Vegas, huh?
Starting point is 00:06:21 Vegas, dude. Couldn't say no. I was like, let's do a shot. I'm excited, man. Yeah, that's cool. I got one that popped up quickly on the calendar here. West Coast, any Southern California clubhouse, Irvine Improv, Irvine, California.
Starting point is 00:06:39 Thursday, March 13th. It's at 8 p.m. It's at the Irvine Improv. Very excited about it. I've been out to California for different things, but that's going to be one of the first places I've performed out there. So Southern Cal Clubhouse, come out, have a good time on a Thursday night. Get this, the homie Sean Latham's coming out.
Starting point is 00:07:02 He's going to be on the show, doing a little spot. It'll be fun. And, yeah, I'm excited to get out there. I'm going out there for a golf outing, Friday, Saturday, Sunday. And so I was like, hey, while we're at it, might as well throw a show up out there. And so that's what we're doing. March 13th, Thursday, Irvine Improv. You get tickets anywhere in my bios.
Starting point is 00:07:22 I'm on my social media or we'll have Benny Boy, Adam, below here. Dude, that's going to be fun. I've never been to that club, but it's an hour away I might, you know. I thought you were, I thought you did Irvine. I know you did Brea. I've done a couple of them, but not Irvine. I don't think. but yeah that'll be sick dude guy who never knows where he is no um there's 20,000 comedy clubs
Starting point is 00:07:53 in an hour like diameter in LA but who knows what really is what golf outing uh it's with athletes first it's a sports agency now sports podcast going to be a bunch of NFL players there and everything and me. So yeah, I'm excited about it. I actually don't think you'd probably, you'd be proud of me. I don't think I'm going to golf. Yeah, there it is.
Starting point is 00:08:20 Hey, we're doing it. Gray hair, not golfing. Who is he? Who is he? I've never seen him before. And also does that guy, does that guy exist? Does the dad with gray hair not golf? Why aren't you golfing?
Starting point is 00:08:34 I thought you were like, I thought you're kind of really into golf right now. Oh, I am. I just, the travel dates didn't work out. Like I think the outings on Monday or something, so I'd have to stay for a super long period of time. And I just don't got that kind of time, Johnson. I don't got that kind of time to be away.
Starting point is 00:08:52 You know, tough to leave the wife and kids for five days at a time. It's a tough job for the, for the wives to have the kiddos like that. And I miss my babies. So it's just, I'm getting out there for the show. I'm going out there Friday, Saturday, to Newport Beach and having a good time. mingling, doing the different events that they got going on. And yeah, leaving before the golf.
Starting point is 00:09:15 So going to a golf outing, not golfing. Perfect. Great hair, cool. I've never been mad at going somewhere for like a shorter amount of time and dipping. Like being somewhere for like when you overstay, you're like, why am I here for an extra day? Dude, that makes me mad. But like when you leave, there's no, no harm done leaving early on a trip. Boom.
Starting point is 00:09:36 I totally agree. See you. Got everything. Bang. Dude, yeah, you do. You go like opposite of Cowherd here. Like, Calhurt, you know, you're talking about, he always says like, you know, don't over, you never regret overspending for a purchase. Like whether it's a car, it's a toilet, it's toilet paper, it's a trip.
Starting point is 00:09:56 Like, you'll never regret overspending for that. But I think it's the opposite in terms of the amount of time that you book exactly what you said. If you go to Disney World and you're there and you're like, maybe we should do a week, do five days. if you're like, hey, maybe on this bachelor party, we should do Thursday to Sunday. Do do Thursday to Saturday. That Sunday. That Sunday, you might end your life. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:10:20 Even if you have normal colored hair. Dude. And you do golf. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So that's totally, totally right. You never, hardly ever are you sitting there and you're like, oh, man, I'm just so glad we stayed this last extra bitch travel day. That doesn't do anything. But we're here now.
Starting point is 00:10:38 It's like just just get out Be quick and then be like you'd rather leave being like man I'd love to come back then man get me the hell out of here Leave them wanting more That's how I felt for New Orleans I was like I left before the game bro That's that's my kind of party right there bro Left before the Super Bowl even happened see ya
Starting point is 00:11:00 Yeah I've had like six six questions of that At various Mirate's birthday party you know, different, different things that I've been at. New Orleans. How was the game? Was gone before the weekend even started. Oh, so you, you went down there? You didn't go to the game, huh?
Starting point is 00:11:17 Nope. Count me in for a trip or we didn't even go to the big event. Wasn't really interested either. Oh, okay, yeah. It was just a quick business trip. Going to games versus watching games on TV. I'm so TV guy. You want to make me hate an event?
Starting point is 00:11:38 Just, all right. Just send me to one. But if I'm watching it on TV, bro, I'm just like, this is perfect. I can't, it can't get any better, bro. Great view. I can do whatever I want. I don't know if, is going to games? What are we thinking, man?
Starting point is 00:11:56 I don't, I'd say the only two, I'd say the only two things that are different than that for me are baseball games and comedy shows. Okay, okay, okay. Maybe I was just thinking football games, not sports podcast. Having a baseball game on on TV is like, yeah, it's cool and like it's comforting and it's nice to have there. But being there, you get caught up in the environment, the sounds, smells, the food, all that, you know, and that's the same for a comedy show. Like you watch a comedy special on TV. You know, you and your girl are sitting there and you're like, oh, okay, yeah, like, I enjoyed that. but if you go to a comedy show,
Starting point is 00:12:36 you're like actually laughing your ass. You know what I mean? It's different. I don't think girls, girls might not hate anything more than watching a comedy special on TV. You ever go through that? Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:12:49 Four seconds in on their phone. I'm like, well, never mind. I guess I'll watch this on my own time. Trying to kill two birds with one stone here. I thought you'd like it. Never mind. Nah, that, yeah, that's a really tough one. Come to an agreement on.
Starting point is 00:13:06 But, yeah, going to one is definitely way better. You're right. It's the opposite for baseball. Like, I would never watch a baseball game on TV ever. But going to one, I'm, eh? Is it like dollar dog day? Right. It's always a day.
Starting point is 00:13:22 There's always something going on. You know, baseball just kind of sucks. There's crazy desserts. Crazy desserts. It's bring your dog to the park day. Let's go. Don't even have a dog. Let's go.
Starting point is 00:13:34 Yeah. They have, like, seven. Star Wars nights a season. Ah, they so do. They have like a spring, summer, and fall Star Wars Night, all for the different trilogies. They're like, all right. Something about baseball spring training that kind of makes, it's a little sexy.
Starting point is 00:13:52 Something about it. Why are they throw a baseball spring training, like my biggest crush of all time that I have like, you know what I mean? Like, they always have a different logo on their hat. They always got like a cool alter. it jersey. I'm like, what are you guys doing? No one's watching. No one's watching in the regular season, but spring training, you're going to get all sexy on me. Hey, you know what spring training is? Spring training is the girl that, you know, when it's spring break or summer break and everybody
Starting point is 00:14:22 else is gone on trips and like doing camps and doing fun shit. You, it's like the neighbor girl who doesn't go to your school. And then, you know, you're like all of a sudden find yourself like you're hanging out three days in a row. And then all of a sudden like, whoa, maybe are we holding hands? know like you have the time of your life but then once reality comes back in you're like i don't ever want to talk to you again she's like what happened you're like regular season right what happened back to the regular logos jerseys yeah we're not they don't tell anybody about this don't tell anybody about spring training me
Starting point is 00:14:57 so true though bro you're obsessed do i like her yeah when you you you're you You know you're obsessed with spring training girl when you spend two days in a row with her. Two days. A go over, spend the night and then the next day spend the night. Hey, guess what? Spring training girls are your girlfriend. Right. But that's where, once that way, once the alarm cracks on Monday morning and everybody's back in town or first day of school.
Starting point is 00:15:29 She's like, she's waiting for you to talk. I got my pinstripes and my midnight blue hat on, baby. You told her everything about your life And those two overnight Just absolutely Yeah but it's It's just like spring training as well Like you know spring training like sometimes
Starting point is 00:15:45 The Red Sox play like a college team Shut up they do Yeah yeah like you're doing weird shit that never happens You know it's like Tuesday at 11 a.m. On spring break and you're like I don't know should we go to the children's music Should we see a matinee movie on a Tuesday? I don't know like there's no there's no rules
Starting point is 00:16:03 you're just with spring break girl, just like spring training's like, yeah, yeah, yeah, bring in Boston College for the Red Sox to play. Oh,
Starting point is 00:16:11 by the way, the Red Sox are wearing their green jerseys and green hats. And the mascot's going to be thrown out the first inning. The mascot's going to be pitching the first inning.
Starting point is 00:16:20 Like, okay. Spring training girl, bro. Just the fling of your life. I'm up at 3 a.m. Falling to sleep on the phone together. We slept on, we slept on a,
Starting point is 00:16:35 trampoline last night. Like we brought blankets out there. Hey, next day. Don't even look at her. Reg season, babe. Shave your facial hair.
Starting point is 00:16:51 Cut your hair. Give it a little trimmy trim. Back to reality. Back to regular. Opening day, babe. Hey, why is opening, hey,
Starting point is 00:17:02 I don't know anything about baseball. Why is opening day kind of feel good? You preach to the choir here, Hey, wait, wait, wait, when is opening day? Is it already been a thing? No, no, no, no. I mean, it changes every year. It's like coming up, though, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like, I feel like it was one of those things that used to. It was like a dedicated, it was almost like tax day or like St. Patty. Like, it fell on the same date every single year. But now that's not how it is anymore. But yeah,
Starting point is 00:17:32 I mean, they make a big thing of it. Like there's teams playing at like noon and one. Oh, nothing I love more than that, bro. Waking up, there's a live baseball. game on. I'm like, we're in. But it's regular season, though. There's different. That's fine. There's like 19 baseball games on opening day. And they're all over by 4 p.m.
Starting point is 00:17:53 I'm like, how did any of this happen? Already? Hey, can you hit that ESPN MLB theme real quick? Web gems. Hey, just the quick version when it would come in with a little highlight. bro i i think that might have been my dad's ringtone for a little bit it's so nice to hear
Starting point is 00:18:23 it's like uh it just yeah just man just makes you feel like you're sitting out on your back patio on a summer night with the bugs going you can hear the cicadas yeah the cicadas are going with a little bit the cicadas do the same tone I'm like, why are the Cardinals playing the Cubs right now? I don't know. I'm going to get some ice cream. Like Carl Ravich just controlling everything. Hey, who's the big guy?
Starting point is 00:18:51 Who's the big guy? Mark McGuire, dude. No, no, no, no, no, no. The big guy, the analyst. The big guy? He used to be a pitcher ESPN baseball analyst, bro. Come on. Dude, there's clubhouse right now.
Starting point is 00:19:06 I was just saying it in their cars. Well, I mean, are you talking like Kurt Schilling? Mm-mm. Yeah, I think we're close. He used to be a pitcher, I think. No, are you thinking John Kruk? Are you thinking Krukki? Oh, God.
Starting point is 00:19:28 Not a sports podcast. All the moms are ruling. Here's a little something for you, Ben, as you weren't a high school baseball player. And I was every, every high school. school baseball team in America. Their coach, if there was like a heavy set kind of, you know, chunky, uh, freshman that was coming in, a little husky guy, you know? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:19:51 Inevitably, high school baseball coach will call them crucky. You know, high school, you know, baseball coaches, everybody's got to have a nickname and shit. Mm-hmm. If there's one kid that was pudgy at all. And if he, if he, if he batted left-handed, see you. Crucky. Crucky. So, Kruk.
Starting point is 00:20:09 Oh, my God, dude. Crookie! Get out of here. Did love him, though, did love him. Dude, I guarantee 92% of Clubhouse listening right now, there was a guy on their high school baseball team that went by Cruke. I love this, dude. Man, John Crook. Just because he was chubby, dude.
Starting point is 00:20:29 Guys, I never thought I'd talk about on a podcast, John Crook. But every day, because I was out of the loop on baseball, but I'd still watch baseball stuff, and I'd be like, who is this guy? You know, I thought he was like a wind horse for baseball. I'm like, dude's never played. Like, he's just a guy that, like, collects baseball cards and knows about ball a little bit. Nah, that's Tim Kirchin.
Starting point is 00:20:52 Tim Kirchin. Tim Kirchin. ESPN. Joey Molinero. When you look at the career of Mike Trout. When you look at the career of Mike Trout, the way he says, the path that he is on is just simply. spectacular. Bro.
Starting point is 00:21:12 You better hit that. That's a good impression. Have you done a Kirchin impression? No, because Scott Van Pelt's known for kind of doing that. Who cares? Doing SVP.
Starting point is 00:21:26 God, I love SVP so, but I just look. Dude, talk about a guy that's just been at ESPN through it all. Coolest life ever.
Starting point is 00:21:35 Bro, they, ESPN does those like cuts every year, you know what I mean? Oh my God. They're not. resigning Mark Clayton or whatever. SVP just not even looking at that email.
Starting point is 00:21:47 No sweat on that baldhead. Bro. Just for ESPN for life. And what's so cool is he can like do whatever he wants. Like he just has his own late night show. Yeah. And he like has his boys on. Yeah, just like Stanford Stephen him.
Starting point is 00:22:04 Just like talking about bets and bullshit. Who's Stanford Steve? He way. played football at Stanford. I know, but like, dude, he's just his dog. And he's like, you know what? Be part of the show. That's like the thing everybody wants.
Starting point is 00:22:19 Like, what a, hey, what a life for SVP? What a life for Stanford, Steve? Yeah. Put some respect on them. Just one of the homies. Hold on real quick. I don't know why I haven't brought this up. And then we can go back to talking about baseball dates because that's all I'm going to do.
Starting point is 00:22:33 But, uh, the Black Hawk jersey, man. Look at you, Clark Griswold. I know. Um, got it. it for Chicago came to my, got shipped in right when I got back from Chicago. So sick. Best,
Starting point is 00:22:49 best logo of all time? I think so. And then, then this is the best logo of all time too. So it's just the best jersey of all time, but I got it because of this. This yellow stripe? So hot.
Starting point is 00:23:05 I don't know, maybe I'm the only one that appreciates stuff like this, but I've always wanted a hockey jersey, really close to getting the what was it the phoenix coyotes they've got some nice they got a nice look or they did i don't know what they look like now i don't think it's as cool now i don't even know if they're still a team to be on huh i don't know if they're still a team to be on they might not be but they had some old old unies dallas stars really dude there's some hockey unies out there that i'm like
Starting point is 00:23:36 serious i yeah i mean i'm a cubs fan so obviously i don't like the cardinals and you know we have rivalry with St. Louis and everything, but the blues? Great idea. Hey, these guys' podcast, branching out, talking about baseball and hockey? Trying to, try to, hey, secretly trying to, like, increase our demo. Hey, they're talking about baseball and hockey now. You should subscribe. This is what we, hey, this is what we do when we're this far away from Christmas.
Starting point is 00:24:07 Yeah, we have to branch out a little bit. You're right, though. The St. Louis blues. sick, bro. Black, too? They got it going on. Every hockey team has a little like black accent.
Starting point is 00:24:23 And I'm like, the avalanche, bro. I mean, that name, that name. Every hockey team could like also double as an XFL team. I'm like, these are sick name. Could also be like a villain and or hero in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Starting point is 00:24:41 Oh no, it's lightning. Avalanche. Patrick Waugh. Dude, Avalanche was so sick. They had another guy, too. I can't think of his name, but he was also hot.
Starting point is 00:24:56 And I was like, God, he's good and my mom likes him. Yeah. Can't think of his name right now. Hold on. It's a very specific type of dude with a very specific type of girl that is into him.
Starting point is 00:25:07 Maybe not specific type of girl, because it's just like a very prototype that you know that a lot of women would be into. Oh yeah, they got the hair Always like kind of grunge Hey, like you know how like I don't know, I like guys like a little like musty That's hockey
Starting point is 00:25:25 That's the hockey talking Yeah, they all look like Eragorn from Lord of the Rings Oh yeah dude They're like always constantly a little bit sweaty Yeah hair is always wet You find a hockey guy with a nice set of teeth Who's not going to that game?
Starting point is 00:25:43 But at the same time though I feel like a lot of those guys like they have like The dimpled chin, the strong jaw line, 5 o'clock shadow. Their teeth are kind of jacked, but like, that doesn't matter. Like, it's almost like more of like an attractive thing for girls. It's like part of his personality. Dude, just now he's got like a little gap in his front teeth. Just a little one.
Starting point is 00:26:04 Not like stray hand, but just like a little. Bro, this part of their hair. Yeah. The Barry Melrose flip up. So imagine a hockey guy. Every mom just wants to wake up to a hockey guy in their kitchen. hockey guy meaning Peter Forsberg in their kitchen, just wearing jeans,
Starting point is 00:26:24 like a shirt with like maybe an oil spill on it. Because they just changed the oil. And they're eating a pretzel rod. Hands are dirty. And they're making omelets. What's up, hon? Yeah, making omelets. Hat trick last night.
Starting point is 00:26:46 Yeah, when I had long hair, it's like if my hair was wet, I looked like a mole rat. But every hockey guy's hair is always wet. and they're just the hottest guy. So I've never seen a hockey guy with dry hair. What are they putting in there? But they all look good, dude.
Starting point is 00:27:00 Like I look, I always think I looked way better than I did when I would be at a pool with long hair and like flow. No, it was just like stringy and like stuck to the side of my head. Just look like a moron. Mm-hmm. I can't do, dude, me with wet hair. I don't think I've ever seen that.
Starting point is 00:27:18 That's good. You've never seen me. swim, dude. I've been to your pool on a pool day, probably like a dozen times. Never seen me swim. Good. Nope. Even when we'd have, even when it'd be like
Starting point is 00:27:37 early espresso days and we'd have to just be doing an all-nighter to like rip a bit or something. You'd randomly be like, I got to hit a shower real quick, bro. And then you'd come out and it was like, maybe you just didn't even get your hair wet. I don't know. Like you weren't rubbing the towel on it or nothing. Really? Dude, I got a whole thing I do with, with, uh, that's crazy.
Starting point is 00:28:01 I'm always taking hair showers. Now you probably do because you got, he has so much maintenance that you got, great guy here talking. I do it less. Oh, okay. I'm scared to wash my hair. I'm like, dude, I can't lose anything, you know. Ah, I think that the scrubbing in the, and the water will rip it out.
Starting point is 00:28:21 Yeah, just let it, let it fly. Every time I see a piece of hair, I'm like, dude, that's like, $50 right there. Every piece of air. Yeah. Well, looks good. You still got a,
Starting point is 00:28:35 you got a full head there, John. This guy. Um, I don't know. Should we get to clubhouse or should we? I got the, we got the combine in town this week.
Starting point is 00:28:48 Oh, that's this week? Yeah. Shut up, dude. Uh-huh. When are DBs running 40s? What are we talking about?
Starting point is 00:28:56 I think Friday? That's the only day I'm worried about. Running backs and DVs running 40s. Programming note clubhouse. I will be on NFL network again with Rich Eisen and Daniel Jeremiah on Saturday at 2.30. So if you and the boys are getting together to grill out and have some bruise and have the combine on with college hoops and whatnot, throw me on. You're going to be on there for a segment or two on Saturday afternoon coming up this weekend on. NFL network. That was so cool last year. Yeah, I'm excited. I don't really know what, like, I don't know what to do. I don't really know what we're going to do yet, but I'm sure it'll be fun because Rich and DJ are awesome. But yeah, like, you remember last year I just got
Starting point is 00:29:41 on there and, you know, Rich was kind of like, okay, Mel Kiper, what do you think about this? And then I kind of like got into it. Never fails. So it was just like one of those that was like, there's no prep, no discussion. It was just like, hey, Joey, you're on it too. And there's the booth and I was like okay but is that an easy thing to navigate with like rich eisen like yo I want to get into this and then that and then this like or like can you do that with him I mean I know rich decently well now we've done a bunch of different things together and I've been on a show a few times whatnot so like yeah it's not that bad but I mean I had a call with their producers the end of last week and we kind of just talked about like two different ideas and they were like
Starting point is 00:30:25 love to have you last year but we want to like make it we want to we want to give you another like I forget how they phrased it they were like we want to make sure that we just really have you set up and because we just kind of threw you to the wolves last year and so we want to kind of have
Starting point is 00:30:41 bam bam and I'm like all right yeah all good so I don't know I mean I know they have production meetings and whatnot so if they want to like pitch something that I should do then I'm cool with it but or if clubhouse wants to pitch something to me that they'd like to see or that I should do, uh,
Starting point is 00:31:01 let me know, uh, message me or commented or, or whatever, but, um, yeah, I got a couple ideas storming a little bit,
Starting point is 00:31:10 but we'll see. Regardless, I'll be on there on Saturday. So we'd love to have you check it out. Dude, if they, uh, they need a couple coaches to,
Starting point is 00:31:19 uh, run some combine drills outside. I'll fly in, dude. I know. All I need is a 12 hour window to coach Rocco be there. I know you do because you're psycho. I love it.
Starting point is 00:31:32 But, but honestly, maybe I miss those videos really just being Rocco and burn. I mean, like that might not be, you might want to throw that there away. Do some normal people combine stuff. I mean,
Starting point is 00:31:49 that's, that's always fun to watch. Yeah. I don't know if they, they like won it live. They want like a thing. They can, I don't know if they,
Starting point is 00:31:57 you know, I don't know how all that is going to work. It would be cool if we could do something that's like pre-produced. You know what I mean? And have it to where they can play it on air, just like post social. But I think for my thing, they're talking like live on TV. Yeah, they want something live. Something live.
Starting point is 00:32:16 Rich Eisen's always running the 40. I'll see his vert. What up, baby? What up, Rich? See that broad jump. Let me see a three cone drill. Three cone drill. Yeah, dude.
Starting point is 00:32:30 That's the big one, the three cone drill. Love three cone drill, bro. So I love that doing that. That was like my best one. Same. It was weird because it was like, I guess it was perfect because it was just the mix of, we weren't really fast,
Starting point is 00:32:45 but we weren't, we didn't have the quickest feet for like ladders or anything, but it was just right in between of like, oh, they can, they're just kind of an athlete. White guys after. like 20 yards. No good, bro.
Starting point is 00:33:00 No top speed. But you keep me in a small distance. Because we're just used to, I don't know, I was good at like small distance quick drills because that's just like I grew up like running around in my house. Like honestly, that's why. Like I'm good at like short distance because I, like someone was always chasing me around my kitchen table growing up. The old island chase.
Starting point is 00:33:22 Yeah, dude. So quick. It's because my dad was going to like kick my ass. How'd you get so quick? Dude, I just got in trouble When I was like eight I broke shit in my house I don't know
Starting point is 00:33:36 I didn't train That's for sure Just getting yelled at And chased around Did you go to acceleration You didn't do foot ladders every night Nah dude My dad just chased me up the stairs a lot
Starting point is 00:33:48 I'm Nothing wrong with that Yeah A little rocky style Organic Uh huh Rocky 4 in the barn. Were you like mirroring somebody?
Starting point is 00:34:01 Nah, dude. Not at all. I just Wet Willie, gave Wet Willie to my sister and she was chasing me around the kitchen table. Trip my dad one time and, yeah,
Starting point is 00:34:15 chase me outside and then locked me out of the house. So that's how I got fast. Bro, that's it. You're like pretty explosive out of your, when you're in your getoffs. What happened? Yeah, I had to do stairs like four at a time because I was getting chased up them. So I was really blasting up those things.
Starting point is 00:34:34 A lot of explosion off my first step. How did you learn that? I can't I just, what's your technique like? How did you learn? Oh, my dad was chasing me. My dad was actually going to boot me in the ass with a Michael Jackson kick.
Starting point is 00:34:49 If I didn't skip four stairs at a time. Great form. It's because I was leaping up the stairs running for my life. What's that? I thought the broad jump That could kind of work for that But you're starting with it From a standing start aren't you
Starting point is 00:35:07 Oh broad jump yeah Because they don't do the one like in the Olympics Where you run and jump See that'll get me messed up Right white guys got to jump off two feet I can't jump off one foot Never learned Really I always felt different
Starting point is 00:35:24 I always felt I was always like Yeah I got like momentum and shit When I'm going off one When I'm just standing start That's tough I'm just an idiot. You got to really be doing those squats if you're doing the standing star broad jump. I hated that I couldn't jump off at one leg.
Starting point is 00:35:38 Ew. I think that's why I always had hope that I might be able to dunk. And I was like 14 and I had my most athletic in my life. I was like grabbing rim and shit. Like kind of like stuffing the ball and popping out. Dunkin tennis balls. Yeah, that was like all off one foot. And I was like, yeah, I can, hey, I can fly.
Starting point is 00:36:01 dunk a volleyball one day what's up for a girls volleyball practice anybody see that no just walk straight out oh guess you get hit up in my space later I thought I was so good I'm not even gonna say it all right let's go to clubhouse
Starting point is 00:36:19 all right from a new one it looks like I think this guy showed up in my DMs too what's up from Max says hey Ben and Joey first time long time who recently introduced his twin to the podcast and want to take it back to a few weeks
Starting point is 00:36:39 to when you guys were talking about the best Catholic school team being called Christ the King. Me and my twin from Lexington, Kentucky, and in our local Catholic schools, middle school basketball league, there was also a team called Christ the King. And you knew when you woke up on Saturday to play them at 815, you had no chance. Since this isn't a reminiscent, burpee boy, oh, whoa. Since this isn't a reminiscent podcast, and you all definitely never talk about Catholic church and never got roasted walking up to receive communion.
Starting point is 00:37:07 Is there any more good stories you have about the Catholic Church school? Thanks for the last every week. Smack my ass like Ben's my third base coach, waving me home as a game-tying run in the bottom of the sixth inning of a little league game. And Joey's the umpire who's going to call me out on the play at the plate. Dude, what a moment. Hey, even if the catcher drops the ball, Max, I'm out of there. Great call back there.
Starting point is 00:37:33 What that guy say to you in the parking lot? Nothing. Yeah, he got real. It was like in a cartoon, like if smoke could have been coming out of his ears, like the guy was steaming like that, but he didn't say anything. He couldn't get it out.
Starting point is 00:37:45 It was all just smoke. Cue the smoke. Then you just listen to bite down on the way home. Yep. On the way to the Lut Greens open. You just listened to Echo by Gorilla's own the way home. You did it to yourself. I didn't know he had that in his bag.
Starting point is 00:38:04 I was like, I thought he just rap. He's like, he's kind of singing. I kind of like him now. Yeah, now there's no one left to argue with. Oh, who. Don't care. You with, oh, dude. Yep.
Starting point is 00:38:20 Okay. Dude, I mean, we can probably, like, yeah, roll the ball out there with Catholic church, Catholic schools. I mean, trying to think of, like, what haven't we talked about? walking into church when you when you'd have to go to church during the school day on Wednesday walking in hey kind of felt like you were the man though well what I feel like I was walking out of the tunnel in an NFL game it only felt like that when you're in eighth grade and like basketball season that just started and you were kind of rocking how tall were the eighth graders I was like,
Starting point is 00:39:03 that the Mon Stars? The hell? That guy goes here. That guy's definitely getting recruited by U and D already, right? Dude, how about the kids that played on the seventh and eighth grade football team that didn't go to the school? I was like,
Starting point is 00:39:18 I was trying to find him at in church the whole time. He doesn't, where is he? That was interesting. I was like, that guy had never seen him before. And like, how do you allow him on the football team?
Starting point is 00:39:30 Is it like there's so many things there that like, you know that team won city last year but how many like non school kids did they have like let me just bring six dudes from center grove and let's run it dude that see it works the opposite too in what you're saying because and that's why you bask in it so much when you're in eighth grade and you're finally like the last ones to walk in you're on top of the you don't care if people are looking at you or people are saying because you're like yeah dog i don't i'm i'm top dog now but every year before that walking into church you've never been more sweaty in your life i was pretty scared a lot i always felt like come on man we got this i'm gonna get in trouble but we got this
Starting point is 00:40:17 dude if you were in like fifth or sixth grade and then for some reason it's one of those days we're like the eighth grade was having gym outside so they just instead of like going through they just went straight to the church and so they beat you there and you walk in and the eighth grade was always at the front. And you're in like fifth or sixth grade and you walk in and the entire eighth grade class is just staring at you and you're like, okay, Ben Polickey's definitely going to make me sweat right now. I always had the biggest crush on like the eighth grade girl, you know, when you weren't in eighth grade. There's always the eighth grade girl that you're like, oh my God. Hey, her hair's wet today. Her hair's wet and curly. Like, does she do that on church days?
Starting point is 00:41:03 Dude, Jordan Sinsina did that curly hair today? Wild, wild. Crazy pole, dude. Favorite part of this show now is just blatantly dropping names to the clubhouse. And seeing if it gets back to him. It's a good name. It's a good name, honestly. That's a sick name for a girl.
Starting point is 00:41:28 What guy didn't have a crush on the eighth grade girl named Jordan? Jesus Christ. so true honestly um dude the biggest the biggest like oh okay
Starting point is 00:41:46 their eighth graders moment I ever had was it had to be a field day remember field day field day got worse and worse as I got older but there was one field day that was so lit it was like I wasn't even on
Starting point is 00:41:59 in the state of Indiana I was like where am I right now dude it was just so many like different games set up everywhere in my class like we had a pretty athletic like i thought we kind of had a shot we were playing the eighth graders all like throughout the day it became like kind of a rivalry like we got them once like on some fluke and then we moved over to kickball and it was like all right like we're born we're like this is our blood right here you know i don't know why but like people who went to our school i don't know i took like so much pride in kickball for some reason
Starting point is 00:42:34 Did you guys have that? Oh yeah, it was huge. And then you, yeah, you get to be like 15 and you talk to other people and they're like, you do what? Huh? No, we don't have that here. Must have just been a my school thing. But like the girls were bawling out. Like the dudes like, bro, you make a good catch in the outfield.
Starting point is 00:42:51 Like people talked about it the rest of the day. Like you, you like blast a home run, bro. Like you're the man like the rest of the year. Like kickball was a thing. And we were playing the eighth graders and it was like, all right, bro. Like this is like, we practice. all year for this. This is the last day of school. Bro, these guys were bombing shit. Like kicking it on top of the church. You know when
Starting point is 00:43:12 dudes would like kick a ball on top of the building? You'd be like, oh shit. I'm talking about like, there were like six of them that were just blasted off. Bro, we didn't have a chance. And that's when I, in my head, I was like, all right, dude. Like, we, I don't know if we're ever going to be like them. Like, dude. So, yeah, well, I think kickball, kickball is just a Catholic school thing. Like, it's not an all-around, like, wherever you go. It's not a part of, like, the curriculum. Like, I think it's strictly just like a CYO sport. Oh, yeah, like, yeah.
Starting point is 00:43:46 Like, Greenwood High School doesn't have a kickball diamond painted on their pavement. No, I don't think so. And so, yeah, for us, it was a very, very big deal. And, like, dude, like you said, you make one of those catches, it may not be just for that day or for that year. Like, it still might be, like, If somebody's out at a pub with their friends they went to grade school with, like that's still probably getting brought up. Dude, I still think about that when I see people.
Starting point is 00:44:09 I'm like, oh, he had that catch like over his head. Like he tracked one down, like on the foul line and caught it like Larry Fitzgerald style. I'm like, dude, does anybody else see it? This is the best athlete of our time. So did you got, you didn't use like the hard official regulation kickball. You used the bouncy gym. The Billy Madison Dodgeball joint. You can smell it, dude.
Starting point is 00:44:32 and that thing would go for miles and there's always one that was better than the others you know then we started getting a little older we were playing with a real kickball and oh or you get a hold of that thing right on the tongue of your shoe
Starting point is 00:44:48 on top of your foot Jason Elam bye bye dude I think one of my favorite parts about the whole Catholic you're bringing like man we joke about it but you can just go on about some catholic bangers for music
Starting point is 00:45:09 like music that you had actually listened to man like not actually like ironically somewhat but like if it's in your phone don't be surprised if you're in the car and all of a sudden do not be afraid i'm with you comes on i don't like hearing the ones that weren't like like i try to look them off on the internet sometimes because i'm like god i miss that song a little bit but it's never like the same tempo as what we were you i'm like not it like we need to ramp it up like can i get a tic-tok version of walk-on brothers and sisters like we just need to speed it up a little bit i was i sing one every morning bro i sing a church song every morning do not be afraid i am with you
Starting point is 00:45:52 how about it making you feel kind of good the rest of the day like leaving church on a good song i'd be like dude i kind of feel like i got the joy of the spirit in me or whatever you get communion you got a little bit of that going on yeah dude absolutely sun's out kind of hype after church walking back and it's like it took a little bit longer because father's homily was a little bit long so like your schedule's a little out of whack yeah see see a girl you don't normally see in the hallway on the way back from church it's kind of chaos for a minute you're just like dude church vibe kind of lock eyes yeah you had to go back to get something from the church you know like somebody that you left your,
Starting point is 00:46:29 I don't know, your lunch ticket or something. Lunch ticket. So you go back there and then you're walking back and all of a sudden, you know, Shelby, she's doing, making an errand run for a teacher and so you kind of head nod. I don't know, maybe AIM later. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:46:45 I don't know. Are we in love? I don't know. Forgot my WWJD bracelet under the pew. We in love? Just saying, I have called you each by name. Dude, the teacher errand.
Starting point is 00:46:57 if I was just so lucky to get one of those. Hey, can you check my mail? I was like, uh, whenever you want me to do this, I'm your guy. Do we make a deal? Providing an absolute, just get out of jail card for me.
Starting point is 00:47:16 Bro, it was so fun to walk around in school when everybody's in their classes. Oh my God. Kind of felt illegal. I don't know. Are they keeping track of time? Like are the, did the teachers know?
Starting point is 00:47:30 You know what I mean? Like he's been gone for too long. Does that cross their mind? I don't know. Because I was always testing it. Hey, yeah, right. But did you ever pull like the, might hit an and one and hit the bathroom too?
Starting point is 00:47:47 Oh, I went to the bathroom. Oh, that's cool. You're in the bathroom just like this. Six minutes till the weird kid that comes in. He's like kind of golf. You're like, I got to get out of here. What am I doing? I'm going to get a detention.
Starting point is 00:48:01 goth kids in the bathroom cleaning his shoes you're like guilt by association like bray you're probably gonna like ask me if I want like a cigarette here or something I gotta go and one dude come out like LeBron the shit too easy hey but did you ever do the
Starting point is 00:48:23 do you ever do the drive by do your friends class well do the friends class but no like your own class but you had an errand to run or whatnot so you're like I'm going to test this out here. I've been gone like a decent amount of time. Nothing crazy. But like if I go by
Starting point is 00:48:38 and the teacher's just actively in the lesson, you know? Yeah. I know she's not thinking about my ass now. At least I think she's not. I did a couple of those. I never did. I was too scared like one of the homies would see me walk by and be like, dude, dude, dude, and like try to get me back into class, you know? Because my friends wouldn't let me roam. They'd be like, bro,
Starting point is 00:48:59 if we're in here, you're in here. That's true. Yeah. But like, it would be quick, dude. You would have to really like you'd tiptoe and then you'd run you know the most concern your face has ever been walking by your homeroom class while they're teaching and you're out weird hey hey i was asking i was asking rye about this the other day and i because i know this isn't a catholic school thing i guess it's probably everywhere but did you thumbnail did you uh did it i know there's not even a reason to ask but i have to did you did you did you're dead dad or mom ever come to lunch with you?
Starting point is 00:49:43 Oh, hell no. Oh, my God. I would have killed myself. I might have thought about killing them, too. Bro. I hate...
Starting point is 00:49:54 One time my mom was a room mom, though. My mom was a room mom in third grade. What grade? Third grade. Third grade. She was setting up for the Christmas party. I'm like, dog, my mom's here. Yo, I got backup.
Starting point is 00:50:11 See, but that's never how I felt. I was like, shit, if my mom or dad are here, I got to be on my P's and Q's and everything because they're not, they were going to like bag me up.
Starting point is 00:50:20 They were going to be the ones on top of, right? Miss Latham, if she's saying something to me or looking at me or what was my third grade? Lathrop is Miss Luthrop. Just Sean Latham's mom. If she's saying something to me,
Starting point is 00:50:37 then my mom's over the shoulder. I was always just like, that's my thumb now. I was trying to do it again. I was trying to make my mom feel comfortable. I was always just like, yeah, he's a weirdo. Like, I was trying to help it out. You know, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:51:00 Dude, do you think that? No, but one time, one time, again, a difference in us. A difference in us, you say that. But like, I remember a vivid memory of being like seven, eight years old. And when my mom or dad would like show up to lunch, you know, I would never really believe it. You know, some days, like every few months, I'd be like, yeah, I think I'm going to come to lunch if you want me to have lunch with you. I'd be like, oh, yeah, okay, dad.
Starting point is 00:51:22 But in the back of my head, I was like, I mean, how do you, is he really? I don't know. I have no confirmation on this. I'm not going to get alerted. And then you turn that corner and you'd see dad just chilling, you know, back against the wall waiting for the class to come down. You're like, holy shit. See, if I saw my dad getting ready to come into lunch, I'd be like, I'm running out
Starting point is 00:51:42 the door, bro. I'd be like, get the hell out of here, dog. like right now like i won't eat a thing i won't even go down there see i loved it because like my dad was kind of like billy madison like oh yeah your dad different like all the kids would sit with us yeah he he would like have a whole like game with the table you guys be playing flip cup and shit third grade yeah it's like my friends and he's like bong and beers you know he's like asking you know you know you stay clean yeah all right mr you who like rumpel still skin like that kind of shit and then like maybe you know if your dad or mom was there there was always a chance like yeah get two chocolate milks today
Starting point is 00:52:21 crazy that is crazy dude my dad came in one time and i was just like i forgot my planner or something i don't know how it how it happened maybe maybe he came in because he saw the planner in his in his car and he's like oh benny probably forgot this at school and came in and just did it i don't know if i got freaked out and had the teacher call them or something i don't know but i've was just like I'm never forgetting anything again. Just the way you walked in my first grade class, I was like, this is insane.
Starting point is 00:52:53 Why is my dad here? I'm gonna kill myself. I'm like, you can't, I'm like, dude, you can't be in here, dog.
Starting point is 00:53:01 Like, you're too big to be in here. Yeah. I'm like, dude, you're too big, dude. You ever see somebody that's too big for the room?
Starting point is 00:53:08 I'm like, dude, this is weird. And some kid was like, does your dad play football? I was like, I'm gonna kill myself. So weird.
Starting point is 00:53:19 All right. Hey, yo, real quick, real quick. I've been thinking about this. You know when you had a crush on a girl in school growing up? Do you think the teacher knew and, like, you know, when it was time to switch seats? You know, like, the teacher would reorganize the desks. That was crazy, by the way.
Starting point is 00:53:39 You'd walk into your school, like, home room, 7 a.m., everything's different. Oh, new desks. Do you think she, like, split you and the girl up? Did she know? Yeah, I think it just, I think it's case by case. I think it's, you know, depends on the teacher, it depends on their age, it depends on how cool they were in school, their social awareness. It depends on what class, what subject they teach.
Starting point is 00:54:08 I think all that factors in. Because it never happened, bro. If there's any clubhouse teachers out there, would love to hear from you. Yeah, you playing matchmaker? What's going on? Because like I always like the girl. And it was always probably pretty obvious. And they didn't sit anywhere near me ever.
Starting point is 00:54:28 Dude, I would, I think if I was a teacher, I would have a problem with like, because I would, I would start feeling like I could play God. Like, if I caught on to that, and especially where we grew up, like, it's not really that uncommon for somebody who, like, started liking each other in, like, seventh grade to eventually marry each other like 10 years from it. It is a thing. Definitely thing. Right.
Starting point is 00:54:49 And so I'm like. In my head, I think I might start being like, you know what? If I put them together, this could spark a family. Like that, and then they can come back and say, yeah, Mr. Molanaro put us in a group together and that was it. That's where my crazy ass head would go, you know? Or it's like, I don't like them together. You know, you're like, dude, hey, they're 12. Right, exactly.
Starting point is 00:55:18 But I think I'd be lying if I said like, ah. Maybe one day. Dude, how about... I'm invited to their wedding, you know? I give a speech. How about when you like... The teacher would put you in new desks and you were sitting by your friend or your boy?
Starting point is 00:55:36 You didn't believe it for the longest time? I'd walk by and be like, are you the teacher? Are you stupid? Like, we're gonna, we're gonna ruin this. It didn't last long, bro. Or your low-key sitting by like your third best friend? They don't know. Teacher doesn't know that he's like your
Starting point is 00:55:54 He's your third best friend It's like yo I gotta like we're sitting in clusters You put my homie Kevin in the cluster with me Dude I'm gonna cheat on every test That's You got that you got that your bro's telepathy Like what it wasn't it wasn't ever Like they were smart enough to not
Starting point is 00:56:14 You know if they were doing like desk by desk Next to each other lined up That you know it They were smart enough to know not to put you like they would never put me and Jordan Reese right next to each other right if you had a good eye line but if they start right
Starting point is 00:56:30 if they start doing that shit where like it wasn't like a big you around where everything's lined up individually but they started doing yeah the clusters of six then that's where they'd slip up sometimes and all of a sudden you're like we just got away with something it was never as good as you thought though
Starting point is 00:56:46 because there'd be somebody else in the cluster that would kill the vibe you'd be like yeah Brittany you're like God. Always going to tell on us. Always going to be annoyed. Huffing and puffing. Telling the teacher about the homework that she didn't pick up.
Starting point is 00:57:00 People telling me growing up, I could not believe. You're going to tell on me, bro? Oh, my God. All right. Let's go to. Thanks for emailing, Max. That was a fun one. Let's go to Nathan.

Love the pod and always listen when I have a long drive or when I'm at work to make the day go by faster. Benny, I went to your show in Sacramento for my birthday with my brother and our girlfriend. I was the one in the Recy's Senior Bowl jersey and my brother had the blue Colts Jim Harbaal.
Starting point is 00:57:39 Wow. Bro, I'll never forget that. That was so sick. They came ready, bro. Recy's jersey. I think I said it to him 50 times after. I was like, bro, how am I? Like, where'd you get it?
Starting point is 00:57:51 He's like, it's my brother. It's sick. You killed it, dog. and my brother's not part of the clubhouse. Love it. But question for Joey, we all kind of know how Ben's football career was and how you played baseball,
Starting point is 00:58:03 but haven't heard much about your football career. What position did you play in football and baseball? What did you say you were better at? Slap my ass with a fungo like you're about to hit pregame infield outfield. Keep up the good work, Nate, sent from my iPhone. Thanks. Yeah, I mean, I played football.
Starting point is 00:58:22 I was just like the most run of the mill every day. 5-11, 6-foot with cleats on white guy high school football. Went hard though, bro. Like I was like, it was like better that I played because I was like more athletic than just the general. You know what I mean? But I was not like a difference maker. Like I just I just like I said was. was slightly above average than
Starting point is 00:58:54 like the guys walking through the hallway. Dude, dude was like a pretty shifty Z. Hey, we go scissors right. Molinar might house. Just saying, just saying.
Starting point is 00:59:08 Scissors. Scissors Sally and slam. I loved those. You know, I loved when I'd be able to get out there. Want to run a little whip route. No. Come on, man.
Starting point is 00:59:20 Dude, number four. Hey, If I'm on the other team, I'm like, dude, watch four. I don't even know where they got him. Is he from, is he from Sassina? That's the thing is that I played my freshman year. I played in middle school all the way. I played my freshman year.
Starting point is 00:59:36 And then I kept getting hurt and shit. And so sophomore year was kind of a wash. Then junior year, I was just like, ah, fuck this. Like my knee was fucked up. I broke my shoulder. I was like, I don't, I just, I'll play baseball. And then I was like, man, actually, I missed football. and all my best friends play football
Starting point is 00:59:54 and I kind of want that like thrill of being like a high school football player on Friday night lights. And so I did it. And it was honestly like, not to be reminiscent high school podcast, but like honestly one of the best decisions of my life. Ooh.
Starting point is 01:00:10 Sometimes I like shrill at thinking about if I would have not gone through with playing football in my senior year. And the shit was just so fun, dude. Like you're just with your boys and like you're, it's great. I mean, it's just great, great. times, I encourage, like, I will highly encourage, already my sister and my, my wife are like,
Starting point is 01:00:28 I don't think we want our playing football because of, like, head damage. I'm like, just, they're not going to go to the NFL. So, like, just, it's, easy. It's worth it. It's worth it to play football with, like, that camaraderie and all that shit that everybody talks about. Like, it's true, dude. I mean, you played.
Starting point is 01:00:46 Yeah. Imagine if you wouldn't have played your senior year. Did you be a totally different person? totally different person, totally different friend group, probably would not even know Dylan Evans, really. And like they got, dude, who cares about head damage, you know? Honestly, you get hit a few times, like, you get a little funny, you know, it's just, don't, don't take too many hits. What a quote. Who cares about head damage, dog?
