Starting point is 00:06:12 You just show up. You just show up. You come to the party. You don't have to worry about me and John. You don't have to worry about bringing your girl and being like, oh, well, these guys are like, I think it could be fun. And having her sit there and be like, what the fuck is this? Even though we'll probably have like, you know, AFC, NFC banners on each side. You pick which side you want to be on.
Starting point is 00:06:29 You stay on that side the whole time. Oh my God. Dude, hand stamps. Hey, are you AFC or NFC? That'd be so sick. Have separate drinks. Like if they have the AFC stamp, blue,
Starting point is 00:06:45 red. So very excited about it. Johnson's coming back home again for this party. And we're going to be there all day. And it's going to be awesome. So yeah, you're the first to know on here now. We haven't talked about it
Starting point is 00:07:04 yet and there you go baby. May 23rd, 2 to 6, 10 roof, indie. Spread the word. I've thought about it so many times every day since we've been talking about it. I'm like, hey, what are they wearing? So I want to give everybody plenty of time.
Starting point is 00:07:22 You and me included. Plenty of time to get on there. Please turn into a jersey party, please. Don't they always? God. Undefeated theme. Mel's best available party themes? All right. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:07:36 What? We could do that probably on the fly right there. OTF, man. So that's something to look forward to kickoff summer, do race weekend for all the local folks, but also, hey, it's a Memorial Day weekend. So come on out to Indy. It's a place to be, obviously, at the 500. And then, hey, we posted about it on these guys, L.O.L. on Instagram, but we got a Discord channel now.
Starting point is 00:07:58 I think that's what they call it, right? Is it channel? It's a hype. I don't know. I'm kind of new to Discord. But it's a big, it's a big group chat. Anybody hop in? It's actually crazy.
Starting point is 00:08:13 I think it's going to change my life. Because people are just saying stuff on there all the time. And it's exactly what I always want to be talking about. Yeah. We've had conversations about Sam McGuffie already. I'm like, yo, I can just like look at this chat at like 2 a.m. And just it's just this show just in group chat form. Some crazy AFC NFCs that have already been thrown in there.
Starting point is 00:08:37 Some wild names. But yeah, on Discord, we'll post the link on our pages and everything. But you can literally join the clubhouse now. That's what it's called is the clubhouse. And like Ben said, it's just a kind of continuous group chat between people who enjoy the show and me and Ben are in there. And we see it all and want to interact with everybody. And also, like, we'll probably work on making it to where. I don't know, like,
Starting point is 00:09:05 the people who are on that Discord channel will get, you know, separate special, like early access to different things. Yeah, maybe like a once a week type of hangout. Maybe we'll like, we haven't really figured it all out, but maybe like once a week we'll do our show, right? But then maybe like for an hour or something on like a Thursday. Oh, go live on it.
Starting point is 00:09:24 Yeah, I can go live and we can be in there with you guys. So there's a bunch of ideas in there. And hey, once you join, throw some ideas of what you would want at us. But it's there, the clubhouse of Discord, and we'll post the links to it, I'm sure, on the YouTube description and everything for this show. But what's happening, baby? We're building the community. We're building the clubhouse. Next up, we just got to get like a, you know, 550 foot square foot brick building that we can put all of our posters and frame pictures and jerseys and have beer.
Starting point is 00:09:53 And that's it. Drunk Chicks. Yeah, let me see. Yo, but yeah, get your merch to, Benedictmerge.com. bald nice at checkout get a get some merch come to the party and this is this one of this one of these parties where hey fly to it make it a weekend i can't make it a weekend baby come through it's a best weekend downtown indy and there's a these guys party i mean come off indiana land uh may 23rd downtown see there and if you know yeah if you don't believe
Starting point is 00:10:32 that people in the clubhouse would do that, then you're just wrong. Because we've had Chris and his wife from New Jersey come out to Indy the week before Christmas for these guys live. We had the Boston boys come out from Boston two days before Christmas in Chicago. I know there's others that I'm missing who traveled from Chicago. I think a couple from St. Louis, if I remember, Snyder Stamps, I believe. But Clubhouse travels, so I know, and, hey, we were doing this for you guys. So, you know, no presh, but I don't doubt that there will. will be people who will travel.
Starting point is 00:11:04 So well put, well put. Now that that, now the housekeeping portion is over. Can you, can you answer me this? Hmm. Easter has to be the most haunty holiday, right?
Starting point is 00:11:22 Oh yeah. Getting dolled up. Should I wear light blue or pink, Hanky? It's just the, the mixture. It's everything. It's a mixture of the,
Starting point is 00:11:36 the khakis with the pastel tops and then even the food is hunting. Mm-hmm. That's real, honey-baked ham. I brought my honey-baked ham. My honey-baked ham. Oh, my God. Honey-baked ham.
Starting point is 00:11:52 Easter egg hunting. Oh, yeah. Yep. And like, I'm pissed. Like, we're recording this the night before Easter, so it's fresh on the mind. I was singing deep within before we got on here because I'm ready to sing it at mass tomorrow.
Starting point is 00:12:10 But I was just like, man, we haven't fully debriefed on Easter 2026. And my God, dude, the first thing that come to my head is just fucking haunty heaven. It's the, it's the worst. Honestly, the worst holiday. Like, I could talk trash by Easter forever. I'm like, nobody likes it. If your favorite holiday is Easter, like, can you, there's nobody in the world that exists. That's my favorite holiday season
Starting point is 00:12:38 Nobody ever Yeah I hear what you're saying And you would think that to be true But there's always those like There's always that like administrative assistant There's always that aunt That's like real cat

Starting point is 00:13:22 you're like, why did I have to call all my relatives and ask them what their favorite holiday is? God, and put it on a poster board. We had so many of those projects. They were just a mess. Easter. Yeah, dude.
Starting point is 00:13:35 And they were so lengthy. and I was like, this is actually crazy. This is a crazy ask. Like, you ever get a project when you're a kid and you're just like, oh my God. Yeah. Like, I'm 11, but like, damn, I got to ask my mom all this stuff now. Like, we got to do this. Like, the magazine sale, that was like a thing that I was like, yo, what?

I'm like, The Leaf Project. project was inside. I was like, I gotta walk around. Now I'm bugging my mom. Like, she's got stuff to do. She can't look for leaves with me. Did you ever have to do the one about, like, the Native American tribes where you had to build a set that was like there? Oh, yeah. You know, you had the different tribes, a different part of the country. And so based on their like ecosystem and stuff.

Starting point is 00:14:55 Like, I got to ask my mom for all this crap. Well, like, you must really be pissed at the parents in this class. for putting this on us because that's obviously going to be put on them now. Huge ask. And before it was due, like I had like a meltdown and everything fell apart. Like my whole plan and all the actual. My whole plan didn't.
Starting point is 00:15:18 I was like really sure about it for the first time ever. I was like, I think I can do this. And then everything I put together like fell apart too. Dude, so coach P the night before had to help me like build all these forts and. like my dad the most like unhandy got like doing all that with the president yeah imagine a head coach trying to like be all dainty and make like a good
Starting point is 00:15:43 looking like out of four years I was like god dang I had to have like an explanation when I came into school the next day I was like uh sorry uh it fell apart like I had this whole I was so beat up about it two things that never failed in those situations one you come in smart girl with the laminated folders and everything. It was like this most pristine project. She'd had it done for 10 days before. How do they do that? She lost zero sleep over it, dude.
Starting point is 00:16:12 What kind of time do those people have? She was just like in there writing in her diary, watching like Lizzie McGuire or something, like just the happiest chick ever, not a care in the world because her Iroquois project is just sitting over there, pristine, perfect. Yeah, that never failed. Then number two was the guy,
Starting point is 00:16:30 I actually had a couple of friends like this and I was always so jealous. But like their dad or their stepdad was a super. Just like the guy that was handy with everything, fixed everything, adding onto their house, like, and got a kick out of like he enjoyed doing that. And so they'd show up and it looked like it was something that like Steve Jobs
Starting point is 00:16:49 rolled out at Apple. I know. And you're like, I'd be like, Jordan, you didn't do that shit, man. Mrs.
Starting point is 00:16:54 Canter? Can we get a review? Are you serious? See, they do that? She goes over the booth. overturned. His dad did the project for him. Offsides.
Starting point is 00:17:11 Cleet Bakeman shows up. Oh, my God. Come on, Cleet. Wearing cleats. Anyways, yeah, the short-haired aunt. You'd call on one of those projects, you would call. You know, you'd call. Hi, Kate.

That's married only. I'm trying to. I think if I was dating a girl for two years, I'd go to her Christmas, I guess. like first year I'm like I'm not going to your Christmas that's wild maybe not Christmas Day but Christmas Eve

Starting point is 00:21:46 they approached me aren't you Santa every year now now I can't because of my kids I did for Franks first but then now he's starting to get to the point where he'd be like hey bro for sure guys playing

But then I'm like, yeah, like I was a dumbass and just literally literally thought that a fucking big ass magic bunny game around.
Starting point is 00:24:13 And I know qualms about it. And then my, my sister, of course, she's three years younger of me, much smarter, intellectually book smart, smarter in general with everything. But of course, she's like, yeah. He's like sweet smart, though. Dude, somebody said street smart the other day. almost fell down. He's like street smart.
Starting point is 00:24:35 It's like hot. Okay. Just because he went to the public school five minutes down the road. Just because he smoked weed in seventh grade, he's street smart. What does that have to do with anything? Just because he has black jeans before anybody else does? He's like street smart. It's like hot.
Starting point is 00:25:03 Okay. Yeah, I wouldn't even call myself street smart, really. Just an idiot altogether. Believe in the Easter bunny Until it was nine Nice Oh for sure The Easter bunny's scary

And the Easter Bunny in that movie says something. He's just like, yeah, tell me about it. Now try to have an 8,000 offspring because bunnies, you know,

Starting point is 00:28:08 We're done. Spring break's been over. It's like summer, like ready. I don't know what's going on. Well, yeah, it's the most anticipated because we're going to kick it off with the Indiana Land 500. So, you know, be doing that. World Cup.
Starting point is 00:28:26 It's up. Not sports podcast. Definitely not a soccer podcast. Not a holiday podcast. Nope. You said you had some, you had a drippin or a tripping or an A. see in a C.
Starting point is 00:28:39 Drippin or tripping Falcon's uniforms. I'm going to go right away. I'm going to say tripping. Wow. Nice. Like it. Let me hear why.
Starting point is 00:28:51 I just This is, I love, I cannot wait to hear this. We're just, we're reverting so far, but we had this discussion about like, we're reverting so far back to just trying to be the,
Starting point is 00:29:05 the safest, most cookie cutter. a box situation for everything. I'm like, that's the best. The white-ass practice pants with just a plain red, okay. Like, it's just like, it's something that literally my son would color in himself and be like, yeah, they have a red jersey and a red helmet and white pants. And I'm like, okay.
Starting point is 00:29:28 Like, there's no, there's no, there's no, there's no Falcons. There's no Falcons. There's no, like, uh, personality to it. Mm-hmm. Because the last falcon, well, that was bad. But like when they came out with like the Michael Vick on
Starting point is 00:29:48 Madden Unis, which now look like, okay, that's a lot going on. But that was like, oh, like yo, they got new, they got new uniform. Like, bro, they have arrived. That was the future. Yeah. Oh, that thing on the sleeve, when I saw it
Starting point is 00:30:04 on the sleeve, I think I ran around my house. And like, they shouldn't do that now with the uniforms because like trends it's it's it's in the past but like you can give us a little something like it doesn't have to be straight like let's make this jersey like it's due tomorrow like that's what it looks like it looks like the project was due project was due in an hour and they're like uh but uh even it looks like super um high school kind of yes like the font the number font in the falcons right here it just it's honestly Michigan State font.
Starting point is 00:30:39 Not a Michigan State podcast. But it's the same numbers. So I don't know. And honestly, if we're getting real picky, the Falcon on the helmet and the Falcon on the sleeve, redundant. I'm like, put something different. Yeah, put an alternate, put a third logo or something right there.
Starting point is 00:31:03 ATL a little bit or like even the numbers. but like Falcon and Falcon I'm like oh too much too much falcon too much yeah no I was um you know and I had high hopes because again like she's like we're working with red and black and white
Starting point is 00:31:20 I mean come on you know yeah and when they when they put that gold oh my god that's insane I know just all the stuff you guys have gold yeah who's the okay clubhouse Atlanta are Falcons fans out there
Starting point is 00:31:36 or even, I know it's not a Panthers pie, but I'm sure that you guys being in the same division have some sort of understanding about where that comes from. I love it. How the Falcons just taking liberties with just throwing gold stripes on their shit. So sick.
Starting point is 00:31:51 On the red helmet, too. They had that recently, didn't they? Like when they went throwback, like recently they brought the red helmet with the gold on it. I think Julio Jones were it. So sick. Yeah, I just remember it would be like Sunday night football
Starting point is 00:32:05 and it'd be like, Eagles Falcons and Falcons. Dude, I always did Eagles Falcons on Madden. I just thought that was such a sick. What a crazy matchup. Also, not a Panthers podcast, Falcons Panthers for some reason on Monday night. Remember that Monday night game when Vic dove in red jerseys, Julius Packers on Panthers? Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:30 Why is that like that is Monday night football with me? Like that game. I'm like, oh. Most Monday night football games of all time. Well, you go around that. I was going, is Falcons, is Falcons Eagles the most Fox game of all time? Ooh, dude.
Starting point is 00:32:53 Oh, my God. Oh, my God. What's the most Fox game ever? Can you not just see the 0-4? It's like 2,000, perpetually 2004. Falcons at Eagles. It's like 405 pitch black dark already. Oh, it's so dark.
Starting point is 00:33:10 There's not, there's no, oh my God. Oh, my God. Is this a re-recording? Am I watching a live game? What the hell is going on here? They're playing this at 2 a.m. I swear. Hey, that Fox scorebug with the, that one?
Starting point is 00:33:26 Mototone Joe Buck. Vick. No flags. Touchdown. Oh, when he says, when he says no flags, dude, I get the, I get the chills, Vic. Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:33:43 Who's he thrown it to? Hey, crumpler. No flags. Rolls out. Byes time. Seven seconds go by. Throws it. All of this,
Starting point is 00:33:56 all of that's happening. Buck hasn't said anything. Crumpler and zone. No flags. That's his touchdown call back then. He wouldn't do anything. He wouldn't be like, to Crupler, touchdown Atlanta, like he does now. Literally, he would punctuate it by just looking around and saying, no flags.
Starting point is 00:34:17 I thought that was kind of cold, though. Like, just like letting the TV do the talking. He's like, yo, I'm just here. Like, oh, I like that a little bit. Because the crowd's going crazy and people at your house are going crazy. And he knows, oh, touchdown. Motown Joe. Monotone Joe was different, and he was that way.
Starting point is 00:34:37 I did a sketch about it with baseball, too. You go back and watch those like 04. Those 04, like Red Sox playoff games. I mean, history literally being made. Insane comeback games are taken forever. Ortiz flies into shallow center, and the Red Sox will win in 13 innings. What?
Starting point is 00:35:01 Mono Joe. Eagles Falcons I think it might be they're both so NFC Part of me once like initially I was like I mean I watched a lot of like Giants and like Washington
Starting point is 00:35:21 And that's so NFC too Like when they would play I'd be like See what's wild is that it goes Like I remember them through different eras too because like that 04 era with the to me that's Eagles Falcons God but then you skip ahead you skip ahead a few years
Starting point is 00:35:41 and when it would be the scorebug that would have the the scorebug that'd be up in the corner it was like a box and it was heavy on when they would have the snow falling down on it to me that most Fox is like the giant saints.
Starting point is 00:36:02 Like Prime Drew Breeze, Jimmy Graham, you know, Eli Manning doing his thing, snow be following, ornaments on the fucking scorebug. Jimi Graham. For 15.
Starting point is 00:36:14 Eli Manning at 415. Eli Manning at 415. Every time. Oh, man. Hey, what's? Go ahead. Dude, I don't even think Packers Vikings is NFC.
Starting point is 00:36:38 That's like Monday night. That's like Sunday night. Like I'm not thinking, that's like way too prime time. No, Packers Vikings is the most ABC game of all time. Pack, bikes. Come on. This looks so good, man. I think you're right.
Starting point is 00:37:04 I think you nailed it. I think Eagles Falcons is the most NFC game ever. No, most Fox game. I can't even think. Like, I kind of want to say Saints, but it's not. Most Fox game, yeah. What's the most CBS game ever? Well, to go to like 2006-2007, Patriots Colts.
Starting point is 00:37:33 So CBS, probably. If you go to like if you go like a decade later Not decade You go like five to eight years later It's Patriots Broncos God it's always Broncos Broncos are very Peak AFC team
Starting point is 00:37:54 Dude who's the most AFC team And who's the most NFC team Literally what the fuck are they talking about No but you know what I'm saying Bro I think the most NFC team ever is the Eagles. They're so, they just check all the NFC box. Oh, man, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:38:13 I think I got to go. I think I could go. I think it resides in the fucking north, man. I think the most NFC team has got to either be the Packers or the Bears, dude. The fucking Bears. Oh, man. Okay, yeah, that's way. Holy Lord. The Bears are so
Starting point is 00:38:30 NFC. Guys taking off their helmets and you can see Steam like God. Just, yeah, I mean, that's, most AFC team Patriots are Broncos. Kind of thinking Coes. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, hey, when your two quarterbacks have been John Elway and Peyton Manning,
Starting point is 00:38:57 the two quarterbacks that look like horses and they're your quarterbacks. It just makes sense. Can't watch a Broncos game without ordering Papa Johns. What the other? Why? Just have to. Broncos are playing? Give me some of those garlic cups.
Starting point is 00:39:21 Maybe one of the spicy cheese ones too. The different ways to eat pizza, bro. Are you a, are you a, are you a, are you a dip the first bite, the first fresh corner? at the end bite into the sauce or do you like to just take a bite out of it you know get it get the palate the feeling what the pizza is first slice first slice first bite you got it on your plate you pick it up from the box even are you just right out of it or you open it up and take a little dip and then eat I'm raw bro I'm going in yeah that pizza is not going to see see the way home in the car at a red light
Starting point is 00:40:11 praying for red lights when I got a pizza. Just please, please, God. Making a mess. I don't care. Starving. I don't have time for the cup. I don't have time to rip the top off the cup. But like piece number three, I'm getting into the cup.
Starting point is 00:40:26 See, I've got you said that. That's what I was about to say. Piece number one, I was like to see what, oh, natural. Well, what exactly am I working with here? Yeah. Because then I can decide. I'm like, oh, man, God, this is damn good. When's it ever been bad?
Starting point is 00:40:43 Oh, yeah, there's just varying levels. Sometimes you're just like, this one needs a little, I need the cup. Yeah, you might start dipping into the cup after that first bite. First bite or two.
Starting point is 00:40:57 Yeah, you're varying levels. You got to be able to feel it out. You want to go into it a little bit of a clean palette, though. Yeah. Mm-hmm. Dude, sauce on the first first bite.
Starting point is 00:41:09 trust your pizza a little bit you know like it's just that's too honestly honestly that's a move a girl a dude hey that is such a girl move first bite in in the sauce
Starting point is 00:41:27 like hey can we just can we just live in the moment for a sec we always got to move on to the next best thing babe let's just live in the moment I was getting ready to say not a high school pod but what happened in the world
Starting point is 00:41:44 when all of a sudden every girl you've ever spoken to when you were in high school just had to have ranch the most ranch of all time with pizza overnight what's going on overnight oh my god
Starting point is 00:42:00 girls carrying around their own thing of ranch wanted to slap it out of all their hands I'm like guys Ranch has been around you're acting like ranch was just invented five hours ago Ranch
Starting point is 00:42:19 yeah it's not that big of a deal it's not like the second coming bro all over the pizza too I'm like where did they see all this that was insane girls and ranch get over it those are the same hey
Starting point is 00:42:37 those are the same girls started put the thumb through the hole, man. I did show me a girl that doesn't like a ranch. Just one. It's all I'm asking. Try. Show me. If you went to high school with the girl that carried her own bottle of ranch around,
Starting point is 00:43:00 she was also the girl that had to have a hole for her thumb to go through in her long sleep shirts. It's just, it's just math. It's just science. How bad did you want to text her, though? Hey, hey, you like ranching your pizza? Me too. Me too. Can't stand it.
Starting point is 00:43:25 Ranch girls. Start debating with her about like who, which restaurants have the best ranch? Dude, you can't win that. You cannot. She won't give you any leeway in that argument. Like, even if she hasn't had ranch from a place you think has good ranch, should be like, no, it's not as good as Chicago's. It's not beat-ups.
Starting point is 00:43:47 It's not beat-ups. A beat-ups ranch sucks ass. What are you talking about? The conviction girls have about their favorite restaurants ranch is just out of this world. She can't sway them anywhere. Once I have a favorite ranch, like, all right. Okay. Hey, it's like a guy's favorite team, favorite player.
Starting point is 00:44:18 It's true. Yeah. Can't tell me shit. You don't know. They don't know. They don't try to talk about ranch? Oh, okay. Do you have...
Starting point is 00:44:33 I've been saying they don't know in my head all week. All week. They don't know. Oh, my... I liked him, but he started... randomly going off on some rant about how I don't know. He like switched his voice and everything. That's when I stopped listening to their podcast or whatever.
Starting point is 00:44:58 Oh, sorry, burby girls. What else? So another dripping or tripping or do you have an AFC of the week, even though it kind of just did that with the football teams? I don't. I don't. Getting a crazy amount of them on Discord. Let me read one on Discord real quick.

Starting point is 00:45:37 AFC mug, NFC. Wow. I just love reading these. I know. AFC, ESPN, NFC, NFC. Dude, people, like, I hate, I hate, I don't hate. I don't hate, I don't really use the phrase because I don't feel like it comes out of my mouth well.
Starting point is 00:45:58 But Clubhouse, in their bag with the AFC, NFC, I mean, just insane. Stuff that I would just never even think of. There's just so many funny one-liners in here. I'm convinced East Lansing has never seen the sun. Hey, I forget who it was, the Instagram handle off the top, but I put it on our story earlier said, Wisconsin, Michigan State got to be the most overcast game of all time, right? It's like kind of raining the whole day, but not.
Starting point is 00:46:31 Showing up just on the visor enough. Like on the sideline, that pan, they have to like keep wiping it a little bit, but like they can still keep wearing the visor. You know, it's up to the point where it's, yeah, yeah, yeah. I just love people just, putting anything in here. Jordan Farmer, 816am.

There's been some really good suggestions on Mel's Best available, too. We've done a couple in a row. So, and with us, we're diving into Easter and all this shit.
Starting point is 00:47:38 And we'll give it a break this week. But I keep sending the recommendations of ones that we should do because really have fun doing those. shoulders it's weird how many shoulders started popping up to me after we did that last week Danica Patrick yeah the first thing I saw was like she she should have on the list I know I'm mad we didn't I mean I think that came out after we did the podcast but I was like Phil Jackson dude have you seen Phil Jackson oh whoa I just registered holy shit dude towers he stands next to Jordan I'm like well yeah Kind of crazy.

Starting point is 00:48:58 And we'll start with you, Greg. We just have fake sponsors. It's so funny. Guys, I don't want to be a radio. So bad that they make fake sponsors. They make a podcast, fake show, do the whole show, making fun of them, but that's all they want to do.
Starting point is 00:49:20 Yep, pretty much. Pretty much, folks. Back in the brick. Greg says, plugging in a USB cable. These guys, am I the only one who has spent significant time in my life trying to plug my phone charger cable into the USB port
Starting point is 00:49:38 that plugs into the wall? Getting it wrong the first time, flipping it over, try the other side, still wrong, and then flipping it back to the original and it somehow works. Also, station. about the Titans get rid of the Flames Center logo? Love you guys.
Starting point is 00:49:53 Sit between Games of Snake on my Nokia 3310 when text costs money to both send and receive. Ooh. That's a PTSD there from you, Greg. But you keep calling back in time. Thank you. Yeah. Like I said, we're catching up.
Starting point is 00:50:11 So, yeah, we had the whole debate over the Titans uniforms. But, yeah, God, it's just so insane to me still to think about how, like, we just willy-nilly me and you can send eight texts in a row to each other and not have a matter at all like continuous text oh yeah yeah like 15 years ago would have been like shit got to get all this in man i can't i think i always i hate to say it but i think i always had free texting but the calling for me was a problem i had to wait until nine six p m sprint was 6 p.m. I was so hype.
Starting point is 00:50:47 But everybody else had to wait until 9 p.m. to talk on the phone. So I was talking to my 7th grade girlfriend. Not a Nicole Gillen podcast. Yeah. Not in Nicole Gillen podcast, but I would have to wait
Starting point is 00:51:03 until 9 p.m. Then I'd go in my garage in my mom's car and talk on the phone to her. But not even talk. Wouldn't say anything. would just talk about the things we already talked about at school just talking about it twice I was like
Starting point is 00:51:19 guess we'll rehash man that was crazy when you when you were on the like you know I don't know why that's such a big deal but girls always want to talk on the phone especially like it maybe it's just our era and you like kind of didn't know how to talk on the phone yet no not at all
Starting point is 00:51:36 like I just remember like I just like had a call like a call like I'm on a Zoom. I just had like a, my first hour phone call with Chiller when like we didn't, I don't know why we even called each other, but we're just on the phone talking. It was like funny. And it was like, yo, okay, I've never had. That was like my first like long call. I was like, damn. It's like when you're like headline for the first time. You're like, I just did 52 minutes. I was like, yo, we just kind of crushed it on the phone. Like I get it. I get where my mom's coming. Like my mom's
Starting point is 00:52:11 always on the phone with my aunt for like three hours. I'm like, how does she know, what to say. I know. What are they even talking about? Did that with Chiller? And I was like, all right, cool.
Starting point is 00:52:18 We're like boys. If we're just talking on the phone like yeah. And then I got to do that with a girl though. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. And you're like thinking about what to say. Yeah. That was crazy.
Starting point is 00:52:29 I'm like, okay, now we can talk about this. I might have made like a whole bullet point list. Sure. Yeah, dude. You had to have a game plan going in early on. You really did.
Starting point is 00:52:37 I mean, the game plan going in. And then also, I mean, I would just the whole time be thinking about like, when do we get off of here? Like at one point I would be thinking about the break
Starting point is 00:52:47 at when point do you break off already thinking about breaks we'll be back over this Oh sorry Jessica I'm up against it I'll catch you on the other side Can you imagine talking to your wife Or like fiance or girlfriend

Am I supposed to be on the phone right now? But if I hang up, she'll think I hung up on her. I'm like, uh-huh, uh-huh. So I'm just part of your family for two hours listening to you guys eat dinner.
Starting point is 00:56:41 That would always happen to me. I'd be like, dude. I wouldn't put the phone down or on speaker either. I was just like locked in like literally for two. I don't even think I've rested my elbow on anything. Two hours, seven minutes. Me like this, just waiting. Just at her mercy.
Starting point is 00:56:58 You remember? You remember we're like, you know, you'd be on the phone out of school night and it would be not a reminiscent pod. You'd be on the phone on a school night and it'd be, I don't know, like not crazy late, but like, maybe like 10.30 or something. you know, definitely beyond the hours that you should be on like a Tuesday night. Crazy. On your dad's cell phone? Yeah. And you're on the phone.
Starting point is 00:57:27 Antenna's up all around your pool. An antenna. God, how old are you? Jesus Christ. No, but you'd be talking. And then all of a sudden, all of a sudden, like, you would hear just something, something, making a bunch of noise. there. You're like, what the hell's going on? And she would like all of a sudden put the phone under
Starting point is 00:57:52 a pillow or something because like her mom or dad came into the room and she didn't want them to know that she was on the phone. Or maybe they heard. And you're like, oh, God, she started to get yelled at a little bit and she hangs up. You're like, I don't want to see that dad ever. Oh, my God. It's 10.30. You're on the phone talking to that kid. Oh, that is a crazy moment. You feel guilty? Yeah. You're like, I wonder if she named drop me. She definitely named drop me. Girls never, like, play it cool, you know?

You're like, if it was my parents, it's like, all right, you know, they get mad at me, whatever. But like, I don't, it's fine. I'll live through that. Now I, I'm in trouble. It's kind of like going back to Gerbach with the, you're, I'm in trouble for dipping around

Starting point is 00:59:47 Seventh grader killed and shed. You know, I have what you're saying, though. What are you wearing? That was your go-to? Yeah, sometimes, yeah. Uh-huh. All reliable. What are you wearing?
Starting point is 01:00:04 What are you hoping for? A little bit of a hell for scale. Mostly because I wanted to tell her what I was wearing. Like, yo, I got two baller bands on right now, what you know about it. Got my Chris Webb Data Supremes with the fucking Spinney Wheel. What's up? You indie basketball camp cutoff and like some Ron Colley Shores.
Starting point is 01:00:28 I'm so ready for high school. What about you? She's like, she's like, she's like, she's like, yeah, I am too. Actually, like, I just found out that I'm going to be getting a ride freshman year from Tyler Moore, this guy. Like, I don't know. And you're like, oh, there again. That's been fun. It's been real.
Starting point is 01:00:59 Timo has game, dude. Good luck. It's going to rush for 1,500 next year. Say, see you to her. It's fun while lasted. Not an OLG podcast. Oh, shit. Low key, though.
Starting point is 01:01:22 What do you got? I was about to talk. I was about to talk O-L-G ball, but like we can't do that right now. We got a Nicole Gillum and a Tyler Moore drop. That's for you, Dan Lauk. Everything I do,
Starting point is 01:01:41 I really just do for Dan Logue. Oh, yeah. He-ha-ho. All right. Let's go to Scott. I wish I was kidding. Coning at Wendy's Drive-Thru. What's up,
Starting point is 01:01:53 Jens? First time, long time. As a fellow millennial, wondering if you guys had some gnarly stories about that local town carnival. For me, puberty was cool, but I truly gained my manhood the first time I drove my 2000 VW Jetta through the local town carnival with my one best bud, no more, said mom and pops. Checking out all the checks from the high school district while blasting, walk it out with my knockoff Raybans at 8.30 p.m. Permit on deck in the glove compartment, you better believe.
Starting point is 01:02:22 Anyway, thanks for keeping my sanity in check. Keep up the good work. my ass while I stand 75 feet from the dance floor at my crush the Sweet 16, hoping the Nets finally pull trigger on the long rumor Dwight Howard trade. Same from my LG TV phone. Wow, that was a rumor about Dwight Howard? Where was I? To the Nets? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:02:43 Nets had Jason Kidd? Am I crazy? I mean, that was way before. Probably at that point would have been the Brooklyn Nets. No? No. They already had like KG and all of them. It would have been the...
Starting point is 01:02:58 They didn't have any cap space, not a sports podcast. See, they rolled the dice and the gamble didn't work. Yeah, if they were... I think it was the... God, that wouldn't have made any sense, bro. Well, because I remember the Nets, there was a while there when they were still the New Jersey Nets. Love it. And there was rumored that, like, it was kind of like, well, Melo's not going to go to the Nix.
Starting point is 01:03:25 He's going to go to the Nets. Mm-hmm. I think the same with LeBron. too. Nets? I think they were, yeah, I feel like I remember
Starting point is 01:03:35 there was like one of those like dark horse candidates that was like, keep your eyes out on the Nets. God, I love hearing those rumors, dude. Guy reality TV.
Starting point is 01:03:45 So the Nets would have had Jason kid, there's too many, they would have to unload everybody. Is that too early? I don't remember that. I don't, you have to fill us in,
Starting point is 01:03:54 Scott. I don't, clubhouse will have to on Discord or something. I don't remember the Dwight Howard Nets. rumors. I love hearing all those stories.
Starting point is 01:04:03 It comes, I know it's time to go to sleep, but I start hearing these like NBA stories on TikTok, but it like, I'm like, all right, it's time to go to bed. But it was like,
Starting point is 01:04:12 they were going to trade Scotty Pippen for like T-Mack or something, like young T-Mack. And Michael Jordan was like, I'm retiring if you guys do that. Like, dude, when those stories drop, I'm like,
Starting point is 01:04:25 no, what could have been? Oh, you couldn't handle it at all. Just T-Mack Bulls jersey? What? Yeah. Michael Jordan and T-Mack on the same team?
Starting point is 01:04:41 Young T-Mack, yeah. Magic T-Mack? The shoes, dude. The T-Max that he had in Orlando. Unbelievable. Hey, the most Eastern conference game of all time. Magic 76ers. No.
Starting point is 01:05:02 Oh, it's Celtics 76ers. I hate to say it. Celtics, Knicks. Not a Philadelphia podcast, I guess. Jesus Christ. Just talking about the Eagles and 76ers the whole time. What's the most Western conference game? I know what it is.
Starting point is 01:05:18 I think, oh, maybe I don't. Hold on, hold on, hold on. Most Western conference game is, uh, oh, fuck. I know. I think there's so many ways to go. Wow. Uh, first thing that came into my head. head, though, most Western
Starting point is 01:05:34 conference game was the Lakers and Sons. Oh! That was the first thing. Going off first gut, that's what came in my head. I was thinking Spurs. Spurs are so... Wow.
Starting point is 01:05:51 Spurs Lakers, honestly. Lakers got to be in it. They're so... I know. Wait, who'd you say Lakers and who? I said Lakers' sons. Spurs. Who's not watching that? Hey, Spurs, sons,
Starting point is 01:06:07 two, like, two the best uniforms, awesome locations, but they're, their mascots, a fucking coyote and a gorilla? I kind of like it. I kind of like it.
Starting point is 01:06:18 Pacer's logo, or mascots, a cat. I'm like, huh? No, yeah, it's,
Starting point is 01:06:23 I mean, I, but it's just so funny, you know, just like hearing, think about, like, Kevin Harlan being like,
Starting point is 01:06:30 it's Steve Nash, and Tim, Duncan, the Spurs, the Sons, and the coyote and the gorilla. You know, like, those are the two things that pop up. Be like, what the fuck is going on here? I like it. Okay. Hey, what's the, what's the 76ers, uh, mascot?
Starting point is 01:06:49 I think it's kind of dope. I forget what it is. I don't know. I mean, Philadelphia Clubhouse so mad right now. Yeah, sorry, guys. Franklin the dog. What? Did they just change that?
Starting point is 01:07:07 It used to be that bunny, right? Hold on. Not an Easter podcast. Oh, yeah, yeah. Oh, wow. 76ers had a rabbit mascot named Hip Hop. Oh. That's a little too edgy.
Starting point is 01:07:18 Uh-oh. We're going to rebrand here. Yeah, it's just a dog. More family-friendly. Hip hop? Oh, that's hard. Dude, pull up hip-hop right now. Oh, my God.

Starting point is 01:08:20 That's amazing. Hold on. Scott, the, Scott was talking about local town carnival. So would this be like our version of, or his version of the CYO Fest? They literally always talk about the May Fest. maybe yeah carnival those many carnivals that are like next to
Starting point is 01:08:40 like across the street from strip malls and stuff like in big open areas yeah but I feel like that can't be what he's talking about I don't know maybe like maybe like the carnivals that are like weirdly
Starting point is 01:08:52 in big parking lots that you're like I don't know if I want to go to that you know it's a weird thing but you're like why is that there why is that there randomly like it's never been there before
Starting point is 01:09:02 but it looks lit like they always do a really good job of setting those up the layouts I'm like damn they fit all that in there yeah yeah yeah because if you're driving around there if you're right by it when they don't have it in there you're like it's a tiny ass parking lot then all of a sudden it becomes fucking out of the box like seriously it's like the size of an auto zone parking lot and you're like all a sudden dude there's just looks like a fantasy land
Starting point is 01:09:28 what was he saying about him though he was talking about how it's kind of a coming of age thing for him and his friend where they drive around at these festivals for these carnivals and be blasting some rap and wearing fake
Starting point is 01:09:47 sunglasses and everything like yeah I mean that's that's totally from like 2008 until 2013 for me probably like great time people were riding
Starting point is 01:10:00 you're either riding in the back seat of Luke Burkhardt's car or your car or you get to the point where you're driving and you're like, what a beautiful time. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:10:13 You don't have anything else to do. So, you know, you and three buddies just like hop in the car together. Probably go get McDonald's with everybody having their lanyards on. Then you're rolling through.

Probably just like socks and slides on. Biggest fucking idiot ever. Pisses me off thinking about it now. But I'm like,

Hey, yeah, get off your feet, you know, uh, it's a week for us to reflect and rest. Get healthy. Tell your parents you love them. Call your grandma. Me, like you get blasted. just getting blasted at Panama City the coaches. Yeah, right. And then we would have to like
Starting point is 01:14:14 find some weird gym to go to and work out. I'm like, I can't just not work out all week. Mad Balots bench in 315. I'm like, yeah, I'll just take the week off because the Roncali blockhouse is locked.
Starting point is 01:14:28 I'm like, Coach Kay, unlock the damn door. Like, I'm not going to McNally's gym. What the hell? What am I supposed to do? I forgot it was like IHSA regulations.
Starting point is 01:14:42 It was like if you're on the, if you're on the campus of the premise, you know, they found out you could be like suspended. I'm like, what the fuck is this, man? We got a CBA here.
Starting point is 01:14:52 Like, is this a, we got the players union. What's going on? We're 17. And you're so locked in on football season. You're like trying, like you're trying to do the most.
Starting point is 01:15:02 You're trying to like win state. Yeah. Kevin Bonn is trying to hold seven on seven at nativity. I'm like, I mean, we got to, dude. We got to center row of week one. Yeah, like, oh, God, that's an ankle busted right there. We got a nail down waggle right, bro.
Starting point is 01:15:25 Not a local pod. They, like, seriously, they're in high school, so. Let's go to John. Jim Rome is burning slash two, three zone. Going off the recent Big East Tierney mentioned, took me back to my form. of years and PA as a Syracuse basketball fan. Do you know about Jeremy? Magna Mare?
Starting point is 01:15:45 Yeah, new head coach. Bringing the orange back, baby. The amount of time I spent defending the two-three zone, not being an extinct defensive strategy, was a hill I would die on. Numerous times they would lock in a one-two seed for the tourney only to get shot out of the gym in the Sweet 16 or Elite 8. We don't have to listen to the announcers talk about how,
Starting point is 01:16:05 quote, the biggest weakness of the 23 zone, leaving the three ball open, and Jim Beheim might need to reconsider the defense. next year. Anyway, asking if there's any defensive strategies that have gone out of style over the years, 2-3 zone, triple option, you'd like to see make a comeback someday. P.S. recently was talking about the after-school ESPN show lined up with some friends and couldn't help but realize that the final burn segment on Jim Realm is burning. Doesn't have shit on the Molinar minute. Hey, that's what I'm talking about. Let's go. Come to Seattle sometime and I'll see which one of you has
Starting point is 01:16:35 better hands for salmon catching. John. Thanks, John. Appreciate that. Love that. I was saying from Jim Rome because I was always like, God, dang,
Starting point is 01:16:44 this guy's spit, man. Like, that was before, that was before you realize that he had a teleprompter that he was just reading off for that. And so you're like,
Starting point is 01:16:52 God, he is just bang, bang, bang on everything. I feel like Jim Rome was the first, like, standout personality. Oh,
Starting point is 01:17:01 yeah. Like, the first wave of it. Like, I was like, oh, Jim Rome kind of goes hard. What was,
Starting point is 01:17:08 Jim, Rome? bro. Was he ESPN or was he Fox Sports and then he has been. He's had a long circuitous journey. He's kind of been everywhere. Dude, how many times on YouTube have you watched a hockey player try to beat him up? Do you mean Jim Everett? Is he, wait, no, that's a base. Is that the pitcher? Football player. Oh, for real? Okay, I have no idea what I'm talking about.
Starting point is 01:17:32 Oh my God. Best video of all time. I've watched us. I think I download that on Lime Wire. Yeah. He's like can't believe it's real. No, but I just, dude, I vividly remember being like seven or eight. My dad listening to Jim Rome on AM radio. Ooh. And I couldn't believe that that was his name then. I was like.
Starting point is 01:17:52 But his radio show crushed. Jim Rome on that crackly AM radio just going in on whatever. Yeah. The blueprint, Jim Rome. Blueprint, not a bad name. Hey Colts podcast, the blueprint. There's going to be two of them next week. These guys said it first.
Starting point is 01:18:26 Biggest weakness in two-three zones. So defense's strategies, or okay, hold on. Okay, like defenses and stuff you want to see. Stuff you'd want to see come back. You know what I want to see? In a finals game, all of a sudden, I want to see a team. full court press. Are they still doing that in the NBA?
Starting point is 01:18:49 Pacers were. I want to see it trapping in the corners. I feel like pros can break press so easy. But like, yeah, bro, if you got people, like, the court, it was hard to break press when we were playing basketball when we were younger. And those guys are twice the size,
Starting point is 01:19:04 like wingspans. Yeah. I think it's so hard to break the press. Not a local pattern of my Pacer's towel is, but it was really, was right back there. When Benyana guarding the inbound? They were picking up full court, not in like a trapway.
Starting point is 01:19:24 I don't know if you, like, they would just break it too easily. Nobody ever does that in the NBA, but they would pick up full court. Like when the guy get the ball inbound onto him right there, like Nimhard would be like right in his grill. Ooh, Nimhart. I know. Dope player. Dude, I would want to see.
Starting point is 01:19:44 I would want to see. just give me a real give me the dick la beau zone blitz man give me that back it just hasn't been the same since like the early 2000 Steelers everybody's figured it out I don't know I don't even know if people do it anymore I'm sure they do some variations but like
Starting point is 01:20:03 when you'd have like Aaron Smith dropping into coverage and then like Polymolu and Porter would be coming off the edge and like dude he had Peyton Manning in a blizzard and a fucking just just just just just absolute blender man Like if you can put a Pade Manning in a blender like that I mean I guess they kind of do but it's just not the same man
Starting point is 01:20:25 It's just not you know It's like when you make loaded fries at home as compared to when you make you get them from you know Fat Dan's or whatever the fuck It's like yeah I mean they'll do the job like it's fine it's alright but it's not Yeah it's just you know Peyton man checking to so many audits at the line is, dude, that's the craziest football thing of all time. Like, dude, he did it so hard that in Madden, they were like, bro, run the play clock dry with Manning.
Starting point is 01:20:59 When you were playing the Colts and you were playing the computer and the computer was the Colter. At one every time, I'd be like, oh. He's racing me up. Like, you just remember, I just remember there just the two things that I remember about Peyton Manning growing up. was the constant audibles where you'd be like every time is he gonna get the snap off? I don't know.
Starting point is 01:21:23 It's not looking like. Felt good. Felt good as a fan. I'd be like, bro, he knows what's going on. He's talking to every single line, man.
Starting point is 01:21:29 Edron James. He'll even pull a receiver ever. He yelled. Like, and then he'd go back. He'd go back into the gun. But then he'd come back up and you're like,
Starting point is 01:21:38 what are you doing? Yeah. God, you had all your faith in him. Man, and you knew he's going to get the job done. bro one thing I remember about going to thousands of Coles games kind of the only thing I remember when the crowd was like kind of lit and the Colts offense was on the field and Peyton
Starting point is 01:21:54 and would tell everybody to be quiet we'd be like like it was your dad telling you to shut up dude the whole crowd would be like oh yeah yeah and you can hear it on TV broadcast too bro like what I'm dead quiet when I go back when I get like when your principal would come to lunch quiet you know when you're loud at lunch and you're principal have come down you'd be like oh everybody freezes when i get my annual viewing of the full game replay of the cold steelers divisional round game in 2005 um that you can tell you can notice that distinctly is you know the Steelers come out and get the ball to start the game and the colt the rca dome is just like on fire dude like can't hear nothing you can barely hear
Starting point is 01:22:46 in Berg on the call. Like he's so loud, you can barely hear the announcers. You flip it over after once the Colts get the ball. You would think there wasn't even an audience there. I love it, man. It's pretty impressive. You're right. It's pretty impressive. Respect.
Starting point is 01:23:01 It's crazy. Yeah. Hey, shut up! Like, people in the crowd saying that to other fans. I'd be like, you're right. Hey, offense at work on the Jumbotron construction level. Oh, man. a lot of memories there.
Starting point is 01:23:18 A lot of memories there. I always kind of felt like the two, three zone. I was just like, how easy is it? Like, are we even trying? Like when you're on defense and you have to run a two, three zone? Or like, what do you mean? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:23:34 Yeah, I was like, this is like, are we tired? When we were running two, three, I was like, what do we stop in exactly? Because they can just shoot threes all day, right? Like, I don't know. I guess that's like you said, it's the point. like, I can't shoot them if you make
Starting point is 01:23:50 them, all right, but like, yeah, I was always just kind of, it was always kind of a relief when you get fall back on a two, three. I kind of like, all right, thank God, you know. I never really understood it either. Not too many more defensive slides in me, coach. Gulch, that one three one. 131 trap.
Starting point is 01:24:11 Oh. Hey, when you were, when you were, if you do one three one and it was like a three-quarter court or full court and you 1 3-1 but you were the guy in the middle you were the trap god yeah
Starting point is 01:24:26 you just fall back and just try to pick off passes when you got like designated for that spot and practice you're like I'm kind of the man huh all of a sudden highlight reels of Ed Reed start going through your mind it is always nice
Starting point is 01:24:44 when like some dude on the other team with straight telegraph a pass he'd be like oh my God Going the other way. Going the other way like the king in those BK commercials. Like, how dumb are you to throw that pass? Let's go to Will. Honeymoon ball knowledge test.
Starting point is 01:25:04 Fellas, what's up? Big fan of the program. Long time. Second time. Program. Just married. Cool. On the honeymoon,
Starting point is 01:25:10 wife had hiccups and I tried to distract her with my mating dance, ball knowledge, to get rid of her hiccups. I told her to count down from 15. and we pass 44, I think Dallas Clark, past 43, I think Troy Paula Mal at Showtime. Starting at 36, DJ Swaranger, I was able to get all the way to zero naming NFL, MLB, NBA, or NCAA football players with each number. Using some deep cuts like 29 for LaMarcus Joyner on the Raiders, 27 Drake Kirkpatrick, by the way, pirate name, and 15, me in high school, slot Swiss Army knife.
Starting point is 01:25:45 Is it cheating using four different leagues? How far could you get with those four? or one of the four. Hey, 46 John Weeks, big shoes to fill as Texans long snapper. Send from my iPad Nano, Will. Ooh. Wow, Will.
Starting point is 01:26:01 You did that and she didn't file for divorce while on the honeymoon. I guess that's why they called the honeymoon phase. God, get away with murder. That's pretty impressive. 29, I was thinking Shamarko Thomas for Deep Cut. pretty wild poll for 27 being Drakeirk Patrick, I will say.
Starting point is 01:26:31 Hireate name. So he's talking about deep cuts for numbers? I think, I know this would trip me up and like I would regret saying it, but I think that I could, I mean, even with just the NFL, I mean, I think I could make it pretty, but I think we both can make it pretty far all the way through. I was just naming any, like, if it doesn't have to be a current player, it could be a player from any era.
Starting point is 01:27:06 Oh, dang. I don't know if I can. I only know. 27 for Drake or Patrick is so weird. Pretty wild. Like, why would he pick that number? They must have everything must have been taken. I hated Drake or Patrick.
Starting point is 01:27:25 I loved. A.B. would torch him every time, and I loved it. I hated Drake. Scary pick, too, being a Steelers fan. Bengals got them. I was like, okay. Yeah, but all those Alabama D.Bs always, like, come to the league and suck. Besides Patrick Sertan and Minka.
Starting point is 01:27:45 Yeah. But I feel like there's so many different, like, a lot of different, like, where they'll get picked and you're just like, eh. D. Milner, Mark Barron, Drake or Patrick. He seemed like, Drake or Patrick seems like he's going to be the one. Not a sports podcast, but.
Starting point is 01:28:04 The real bust at corner that. I, dude, Eli Apple, man. Well, you better watch out, man. He's been known to, he's been known to have his some bunny, some bunny ears. Oh, yeah. He'll come after.
Starting point is 01:28:20 He'll come after. His mom will, too. I'm a fan, dude. But like, it wasn't what I thought, you know. It's a, it's his last name podcast, you know? Yeah. That's true. That's true. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:28:33 I don't, like, I, I feel like you're, you're going to have those ones, like you said, in the long snapper range. Anything from 41 to 49, that'd probably be the biggest tests. That'd be tough. Once you get into the, yeah, I mean, 30s are going to be mostly DBs, running backs, maybe a linebacker to 20s, DBs, running backs, teens, quarterbacks, receivers, the 40s, yeah, it's like,
Starting point is 01:29:08 hey, some scary really big running backs, maybe a fullback or two is in there. Right, 41, Antoine Bethay. Oh, just such a, such a huge piece of the Colt secondary for so many years. He was nice, too. Just holding it all together. Bro, does not get enough respect.
Starting point is 01:29:36 Arm was just a robot. for a whole year. Where is he? Where is he from? Oh. Just felt good having him back there, honestly. Visor on. Sanders and Bigot.
Starting point is 01:29:57 Clubhouse is screaming right now. I don't think I have a baby. That's a weird one. Because the Colts would always get DBs from like where is that? Yeah. Not a Colts podcast. We haven't talked about him once.
Starting point is 01:30:11 And one. but say, where do you go? Howard University? How would you guess that? Oh, God, Jesus. This guy still got an hour and a half thing. Oh, man.
Starting point is 01:30:25 Yeah, 46. 45, 46, 48, 49. Should we try to nail the 40s right now? 49, man. Jesus. 49. That's probably where I, that's probably where it in for me.
Starting point is 01:30:44 49 is such a bad number. 48, I think of Do the Steelers linebacker 48? Oh, Bud DePri Yeah There you go I was thinking
Starting point is 01:31:00 Not a cold spot cast Justin Snow Oh 47 Tyrone Wheatley Ooh But is that really a deep cut though Well I guess he's just the only

Starting point is 01:34:52 Baker Mayfield 6 milligram cool mint Morning boys Longtime listener second time email Are sitting in the drive-thru line For McDonald's breakfast Listening to a hall of fame riff On the rise and fall of Gerbach A defining moment of my CYO
Starting point is 01:35:07 Bois basketball career Was making my first three-pointer In the gym at Gerbach's high school Villa Angeles St. Joseph I'm writing to discuss a phenomenon We all experience I maybe haven't named Clubhouse Brian Oh, Clubhouse Brain
Starting point is 01:35:20 Clubhouse Brain Sorry. This, of course, is the act of seeing numbers and compulsively thinking of pro athletes with that number. For example, I recently had 87 miles out in the gas tank and had visions of Prime Reggie Wayne as I cruised down the highway. Moments later, I checked again and thought of Heinz Award in Super Bowl 40. I thought you should know.
Starting point is 01:35:39 My question is, what's your favorite celebration you've seen a player do? I need some ideas for my Friday men's soccer league. I refuse to play defense in and have to contribute somehow. Come to Cleveland. I'll have my throwback as a Drunus Elgal. because O'Galskas jersey on. Sent for my Leapfrog, early reader tablet. Johnny.
Starting point is 01:35:57 Thanks, Johnny. Love old Cleveland stop. The manager's from Cleveland. She's always like, you should go. I would do anything. I would do anything to go to Cleveland. Yeah, it's funny you say that, Johnny, because me and Ben always do that with,
Starting point is 01:36:12 you know, when you go to a restaurant, they give you a, here's your number for your order. And so we always talk about how that's the first thing that comes to mind, too. I'll never forget. I was in Culver's. I was getting Colvers at one point. And I was in the drive-thru, and they put 97 on mine.
Starting point is 01:36:30 And I sent it to Ben. I was just like, Cam Hayward, and he sends back, sup Simeon Rice. And I was like, oh, hi. He won up. He won up. But absolutely, Clubhouse Brain. Absolutely.
Starting point is 01:36:44 There's nothing like, yeah. Any number. When you get that number and he, yeah, you're like, I'm fucking Troy Palomalu on this. Troy P is the water? Do they know that I'm trying to Like did they see my crime be like He'd be a good Troy Palomalo?
Starting point is 01:36:58 That's what I think they thought Do they know I'm a Steelers fan? It kind of seems like it I was getting the good numbers Do they think I'd be able to jump over The line of scrimmage? I like would take it as a sign Like if the Steelers were in the late in the season
Starting point is 01:37:18 Late in the season like in the playoffs and then I'd be at like Culver's something, Penn Station, and it'd be like order 84, I'd be like, A-B's about to go off. Yep. Dang, that's so clubhouse brain right there. Like putting all your money on that, like, yeah, they're going to win. They're winning the night.
Starting point is 01:37:39 Culver's told me. That's right. Favorite celebration you've seen a player do? Celebration. How about this? Celebration station. Jacoby Jones doing that Chopper City in the end zone. And he was like, he was, God dang.
Starting point is 01:38:05 And Chris Johnson too. Bat, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad. I've always just like, man, I can't believe these guys have the presence of mind to do that. I, dude, I scored like four touchdowns of my life. And I just, like, black, I was a kid, but like, I just, like, blacked out. I don't even. These guys just thinking about.
Starting point is 01:38:28 All they're thinking about. about. What a life. Dude, honestly, my favorite celebration, just going back, yeah, not a Steelers pod,
Starting point is 01:38:45 but dude, Antonio Brown would score and he'd, like, do that little shuffle. That was sick. He was like, wiggling the hips,
Starting point is 01:38:55 getting a little thrusty. That was just so prime where he was just going off every week, man. I was just like, this guy's unbelievable. A little, little,
Starting point is 01:39:04 little bit of a OLA there. Sure had a little sexual innuendo? What doesn't? But I think I don't want to he had to take a page from Victor Cruz. That might be the best touchdown celebration ever. Him doing that bro and it matches his name and he was like that was just full. Life of its own. The thing took on a life of its own
Starting point is 01:39:32 when he had that run. Everybody you know was doing it. God, he was so nasty too. They were having segments on it on like the Today Show. He was shown up in like Tostitos commercials. God, dang. Easy.
Starting point is 01:39:49 That might have been that like just the fact that I like matched his whole personality and name. Yeah. Like that was like that was good. Yeah. On point.
Starting point is 01:39:59 Every week. No, he didn't need to change it. Yeah, A.Bs wasn't so much of a salsa. It was. Yeah, he was like just but like yeah, same kind of. a same thing
Starting point is 01:40:12 like same word different phone knowing how A. yeah probably
Starting point is 01:40:16 something to do with him like spreading a seed or some shit like God dang it
Starting point is 01:40:21 everything's got to be so gross yeah but I was like hey you put up 150 and two tuddies man
Starting point is 01:40:29 I don't you want I like the I like the AB jump on the goal post pad but actually
Starting point is 01:40:35 I think Pacaman Jones did that before uh Steve Smith, too. Steve Smith did that, not a Panthers pod. Steve Smith did that in a 2005 N.C. Championship game in Seattle.
Starting point is 01:40:50 Hey, this one. Deshawn Foster. Super Bowl, lazy boy, end zone. Facing outside towards the sideline. I was like, that's got to be up there. And it was overshadowed. Overshadowed because of the moment, too. Nobody talks about that.
Starting point is 01:41:10 Hey Smith End zone No flags As he's Slide down the pole That's it Ooh
Starting point is 01:41:25 Crowd going crazy No it was quiet Because it was in Seattle So Carolina had just scored So you kind of get the cheers From this Carolina sideline going But nobody else really was Steve Smith
Starting point is 01:41:38 You waving at people Fox scoreboard pixelated numbers. Like it's like a like a scorebug but it's a scoreboard number. God, that was...
Starting point is 01:41:49 Best scorebug ever. Insane. I did like it when like this is like, this stuck with me forever and I just every time I see a football I do it. But like when the Rams would do the like
Starting point is 01:42:03 Steve Smith was doing that. He guys her first down and spin the ball. Spin it and it's forever. I'd be like, oh, that's kind of just a nice. little celebration. Like he's not doing too much. It's still pretty cool.
Starting point is 01:42:17 And you do that. You play backyard football. Spin it after you score and then that's it. Joe Horn's cell phone flip. Well, that's just like crazy. One off. T.O. Sharpie. I was obsessed with that.
Starting point is 01:42:33 When Tio did that, I remember everybody, you know, all like John Madden, everybody was mad about it. But I was like, what a fucking idea? I was in third grade. I was like,
Starting point is 01:42:43 signs the football I scored with that was so insane biggest news of my life the next day at school Tuesday morning I'd be like yo did you see what happened last night you would have thought that he committed an act of terror right bigger news than 9-11 for me
Starting point is 01:43:02 way bigger he had it in his soft the whole game I just meant like how people react like hey PTI around the horn. Everybody. I was like, guys. What a moment. He signed a football.
Starting point is 01:43:22 What's going on here? They had to, I mean, you know something. That has to be number one. Because they literally had to change the rules because it was so cold. Like, they were like, all right. This shit is so crazy. No more celebrations, dude.
Starting point is 01:43:37 Hey, T.L. and the Cowboys star? Oh, Astros. Troturf Tio Scores a touchdown immediately runs to the field I was like watching it on prime time because we obviously didn't have
Starting point is 01:43:53 didn't have the game Hey scores does immediately doesn't turn to give the ball of the ref doesn't turn to celebrate those teammates hoffing it faster than I swear I took him seven strides and he was there
Starting point is 01:44:08 boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom in the star he ran he ran faster than his sporting time at the combine if he was even invited. That's so sick, man. He does it again, though. They get pace, he scores again. He does it again.
Starting point is 01:44:26 Roy Williams. But then he did it. He got scored again and did it in the Cowboys. I thought that one was the coolest. I was like, he's still getting your ass though. He's still doing it to you. Like, that one hurt more than the big star. I'm like, he can't do anything about that one.
Starting point is 01:44:44 Ah. Just do his, his, feet so close together. Yeah. Best receiver of all time. TG Hot takes. Hey, uh, and one guy.
Starting point is 01:44:59 Can we start TG Hot takes? DG Hot Takes. Tio, best receiver of all time. Also the end one guy, the model for the end one guy. I got one. Okay. TG Hot takes.
