Travis Makes Chiefs History, Jason’s War on Stats, and Settling a Bet with Patrick Mahomes | Ep 103
92%ers, we are back with another episode of New Heights brought to you by Buffalo Wild Wings!
In this episode, we get right into it with Travis explaining his “bet” with Patrick Mahomes, we debut an exclusive clip of ‘Grotesquerie,’ and argue about what should be our first movie reviewed in the New Heights Film Club. Spoiler. Jason might be bringing travelling pants for Jason.
Travis also recaps the Chiefs staying undefeated against the Chargers, how the rookies stepped up after the Rashee Rice injury, and how he feels about breaking a legendary NFL record.
We also get into everything else from Week 4 in the NFL, including the Birds struggling against the Bucs, Jayden Daniels's arrival, how the No Fun League is taking away our finger guns, and why stats are for losers.

Speaker 4 Say it again.
Speaker 3
Trap. You hear me? Oh, I hear you.
Can you hear me? Yeah, I can hear you. I was saying there's not that much of a difference.
It kind of looks like the same person.
Speaker 3 Nice.
Speaker 3 the you laughing at jason
Speaker 4 welcome back to new heights ladies and gentlemen 92 percenters
Speaker 4 i got this silly ass mascot ahead on but uh i'll tell you why in a second this show is presented by wondry plus and what is it produced by wave sports and entertainment only done this a hundred times don't know why i can't remember it make sure you follow the show on all social media at New Heights Show with OneS.
Speaker 4 And don't forget, this show is sponsored by who the fuck?
Speaker 3 Oh, let me read this real quick.
Speaker 4
Having a good old time. And this show is brought to you by Buffalo Wild Wings.
Let's go, sports part.
Speaker 3 Jason, you got a clap.
Speaker 3
Thank you. Well done, Travis.
Travis said.
Speaker 4 Jason, why don't you tell the people what we got coming up?
Speaker 3
All right. As Travis said, this is a wondery show produced by our friends at Wave Sports and Entertainment.
Coming up this episode, we got a great one planned for the U92 percenters.
Speaker 3
As you can see, Travis is dressed to the nines for this occasion. We're going to talk about the Big Yetis big game in L.A.
Big game.
Speaker 4 I had 89 yards. That's not a big game.
Speaker 3
The rest of the biggest stories from around the league, including Jared Goff and Jaden Daniels breaking all kinds of records. We're also going to...
pick our finalists for the New Heights Film Club.
Speaker 3 And of course, wrap up with some more of your not dumb questions. But before we get to anything, I got to be honest, I was really hungry.
Speaker 3 We kind of, I was rushing off the golf course, and I thought I'd get right to it.
Speaker 3
Buffalo Wild Wings Sports Bar is our official sponsor for this episode, and they sent me a bunch of Buffalo Wild Wings. So I'm going to eat some Wild Wings.
I mean, dude, they sent so much.
Speaker 3 I can't even like, I have wings.
Speaker 3
I don't even know what to do with all that. This is probably, I mean, no joke.
Let me do some math real quick. quick so two and a half
Speaker 3 five this is probably i probably got about i don't know 15 dead chickens sitting in my uh lap right now
Speaker 3 deep fried and covered in delicious sauces
Speaker 3 talk to me dirty as well as blue cheese got this wonderful bacon burger which I really like how they've layered it.
Speaker 3 That smells delicious.
Speaker 4 Now that you know who this show is brought to you by and Jason's eating his wings, I might as well tell you guys why I even have this mascot head on and where it comes from.
Speaker 3 It comes from good old Lubbock, Texas.
Speaker 4 That's right. The Texas Tech Red Raiders beat up on our Cincinnati Bearcats over the weekend, and me and Pat had a little
Speaker 4 fun little wager that we came up with.
Speaker 4 If the Bearcats would have won, Pat would have been at the press conference that he has every single week wearing wearing a Bearcat mascot head.
Speaker 4 And sure enough, as you can see, the Bearcats lost because I'm sitting here looking like an idiot wearing this Red Raiders mascot head.
Speaker 3 I'll let you know right now, you don't look like an idiot at all. You look like.
Speaker 4 Well, I mean, Jason,
Speaker 4
it's just who I am. All right.
I feel like, you know what I mean? You just got to own it.
Speaker 3 You look like a full-on version of Yosemite Sam, is what you look like. I mean, that's the only thing.
Speaker 3 The Red Raiders clearly stole Yosemite Samaida.
Speaker 4 It is kind of an honor, though, because I used to play with this guy in NCAA football like growing up when you could just do the full mascot teams. I used to play with this guy all the time.
Speaker 3
Well, you're killing it. Yeah.
Thanks a lot, Coach Satterfield. Much appreciated.
Speaker 4
It's extremely hot under here. You don't get a lot of, there's not a lot of air coming through this thing.
So it kind of feels like I'm hyperventilating a little bit.
Speaker 3 Do you have a newfound respect for mascots trying to podcast in it and realizing that they do like flips and run around a stadium?
Speaker 4 Not that I didn't already respect them, but I mean, if this is what they're doing in Lubbock, Texas in 100-degree dry-ass heat, fuck that.
Speaker 3 Oh, my gosh. That thing's got some bacteria in there.
Speaker 4 And on top of that, they're running around, getting everybody excited.
Speaker 3 Yeah.
Speaker 3 Does that thing have mold going on in the middle?
Speaker 4 Whatever that guy does, guns up, guns up. You think he just does guns up to everybody?
Speaker 3 I mean,
Speaker 3 probably. That's what I'm doing.
Speaker 3 I'm not doing that. What else can you do?
Speaker 4
I'm definitely not going above and beyond. But shout out to the Texas Texas Tech Red Raiders for getting the dub.
It was the first time the Bearcats played Texas
Speaker 4
or played Tech. And me and Pat wanted to have some fun with it, knowing that I don't think we'd ever matched up in the football field before.
So, Bearcats, I need you guys next time, baby.
Speaker 4 But you didn't disappoint either. That was a great game, man.
Speaker 3 Does he have a Stetson cowboy hat? Do you know what kind of brand cowboy head that is?
Speaker 4 I have no idea.
Speaker 3 What?
Speaker 3 You like that one? Hattie? That was good. Hattie.
Speaker 3 Hatty. You got
Speaker 3 Give us your best. If Red Raider talked, give us your best what you think Red Raider would sound like.
Speaker 3 Come on down to Lubbock, Texas.
Speaker 3 That's all I got. Yeah, I mean, that's it.
Speaker 3 We'll throw batteries at you. We'll throw tortillas at you.
Speaker 3 You come down here, you're going to get your ass whooped.
Speaker 3 Welcome to Lubbock, Texas, where there's tumbleweeds and college football.
Speaker 3 That's all we got.
Speaker 4 Yeah, tumbleweeds and college football.
Speaker 3 Oh, my God.
Speaker 3
Oh, my God. That was awesome.
Oh, God. Woo.
And I'm still repping the Bearcats, baby, all day.
Speaker 3 You see. I got to give another shout out before we get started.
Speaker 4 I played at that.
Speaker 3
TPC course in Connecticut. The woman that got me on, her name Aunt Robin, got me on the course.
Okay, Mrs. Run.
Speaker 3 She was trying to find garage beers to give us for the round, but apparently they're not in Connecticut. We got to get on Andy and those guys to freaking step up their game in Connecticut.
Speaker 3
But she did hook us up with some Neil's doughnuts. Oh, man.
I was going to let you know, I already had one. Yeah, good thing they're over there.
Speaker 3
They might give Lamars a run for their money out there in KC. Ooh, the golden, the yellow box.
The yellow boxes are dangerous. Gosh, these donuts were great.
I I love a good yellow box.
Speaker 3 I'm at that point in the season where I'm like, let me just push it away.
Speaker 3 I see that golden
Speaker 3 glazed donut just
Speaker 3 sitting in the
Speaker 3 yellow box. I'm just like, hmm, I don't need that today.
Speaker 3 I'll get it tomorrow.
Speaker 3 And knowing that they don't have boxes of donuts in the building every day, just lie to myself so that I don't just grab 10 10 donuts and run around the corner and just stuff my face like a little fat kid.
Speaker 3 What happened to all the donuts?
Speaker 3 It's a sad day when you're in your NFL career and you realize you've hit that age where you can't just eat whatever you want.
Speaker 3
It's like, God damn it. I remember I used to live for ice cream the day before games.
Oh, yeah, the little snack bar. Yeah.
Yeah. And
Speaker 3 I'm like,
Speaker 3
you got to like year 12. And Brent Sellek said something to me before one of the games one day.
He's like, man, I shouldn't have had a milkshake last night. I just feel like crap.
Speaker 3
I was like, yeah, Selak, it's not the fact that you play football. It's the milkshake.
And then I got to year 12 and I ate some ice cream and then tried to go play football the next day.
Speaker 3 And I was like, oh shit, this is
Speaker 3 why am I so lethargic today?
Speaker 3 I just feel like a big blob. Yeah.
Speaker 3 Am I bloated?
Speaker 3 Am I bloating? Well, I'm going to keep eating these Buffalo Wild Wings and donuts. So thank you, Buffalo Wild Wings and Buffalo Wild Wings Go.
Speaker 3 Triple bacon cheeseburger and the buffalo bacon sauce was tremendous to be delivered. Let's go, Sports Bar.
Speaker 3
All right. New news.
New news. New news is brought to you by our friends at Varney Airlines, where good leads the way.
Speaker 3 How do you even remember? I guess you read it.
Speaker 3 New news is brought to you by our friends at United Airlines were good leads.
Speaker 3
Did United ever get back to us on whether they liked the whole Varney Airlines bit or not? Their fans? All right. First bit of new news we got is Kelsey Car Jam out here in Kansas City.
That's right.
Speaker 3 My foundation, 87 and running,
Speaker 3 has the annual foundation event this year.
Speaker 3 It's the second year we've done a car show or basically a block party style event that will showcase some of the city's top automobiles from the Fuel House, a fun car club out here.
Speaker 3
And then I guess a bunch of others that are lined up. It's going to be fun.
I should have my old school 70 Chevelle all revved up and ready to rock and roll.
Speaker 3
But if not, I'll bring one of the other cars that I have. Jason should be there, and it is this Saturday.
That's why I'm reminding you guys.
Speaker 3 All the proceeds to the event will go to 87 and Running Foundation, which benefits the inner city of Kansas City, Cleveland Heights, Ohio,
Speaker 3 and
Speaker 3 just the
Speaker 3 underserved youth
Speaker 3
in the city. And it's always fun to get out here in Kansas City.
Kansas City, they show up every single time that I've done anything foundation-wise, and I love them for it.
Speaker 3 So if you're in town for the game, just stopping through or just
Speaker 3 live here in Kansas City and
Speaker 3 want to get out on Saturday afternoon, come on down to the Kelsey Car Jam, baby.
Speaker 3
It's going to be downtown in the KDC area, and tickets are still available for the Kelsey Car Jam at 87andrunning.org, I believe. Ooh, check it out, guys.
We'd love to see you guys down there.
Speaker 3
I can't wait to go. I missed last year.
Obviously, now that I'm retired, I had the opportunity to go this year, and I'm looking forward to it. No, it'll be fun, man.
It'll be fun.
Speaker 3 Always some good food, some fun cars, and just
Speaker 3 a nice, fun evening for the city to enjoy. Do people that attend get to drive any of these cars? Is there like a test track? No.
Speaker 3 no no do you think people will let me potentially drive some of the cars i think you could persuade you're very good you could persuade some people i probably should wait on the garage beers then yeah all right let's talk about grotesquerie exclusive clip uh we talked about the premiere of trav's new show grotesquerie gratesquerie and 92 is we've got a very special treat for you today and a treat for jason because i haven't seen this either tonight wednesday october 2nd travis's character is going going to be introduced in episode 3.
Speaker 3 Old Ed Lachlan. That's right.
Speaker 3 Wait, what's your character's name? Ed Lachlan. Did you get to choose Ed? Nope.
Speaker 3
Is that an honor of Ed Kelsey? It's just fate. It's just fate, man.
Just lines up. Perfect.
I could see Ed Kelsey being a murderer. What? If somebody told me dad killed somebody, I'd be like, yes.
Speaker 3
It's for good reason, though. I could see it for good reason.
Yeah, he wouldn't kill anybody. Yeah.
Like, he's not a. I don't think a serial killer.
Speaker 3 I don't think Ed Kelsey could do the things that are going on in Grotesquerie.
Speaker 3
We're going to talk about that in a second. I was about to say, yes.
But yes, episode three at 10 p.m. on FX tonight.
You can see Travis's character. What's Ed what? Lachlan.
Speaker 3 Ed Lachlan going to make his debut. But you don't have to wait because the Groteskery team sent us an exclusive, never-before-seen clip of Travis's first scene to air right here, right now.
Speaker 3
I can't wait. I'm just gonna watch you watch it.
I don't wanna watch it. Thank you, handsome.
Speaker 3 What's your name?
Speaker 3 Ed.
Speaker 3
Ed Lochman. But you can call me Eddie.
Eddie. Something tells me when you're done with your little ciggy break here, you're gonna wanna get the hell out of here.
Speaker 3
And I don't blame you. I already know what's happening in this movie in this show.
But should you be driving?
Speaker 3 Probably not.
Speaker 3
I don't want to anyway. Of course you are.
Of course I am. Windows down.
Speaker 3 You know it.
Speaker 3 This is so.
Speaker 3 I can't watch it.
Speaker 3 I can't even listen to it. Don't we? No, Lil Song.
Speaker 3
Not gonna lie, you killed her up there. You're full of shit.
No, you tell me, though. Nisi's awesome.
You look great, too. Nisi's awesome.
And Nisi made it to the LA game. I saw that.
How about that?
Speaker 3 She came out and supported me at the Chargers game.
Speaker 3
Was cool seeing her on the sideline. Mama Kelse had nothing but amazing things to say about her, as does everybody else.
All right, I'm going to need to stop dodging. Oh, shit.
Speaker 3 Did you boil a baby or not? Jason, do I look like I have the
Speaker 3
courage or the? I don't even know what the fucked upness about me to boil a fucking baby. No, you don't.
But Ed Lachlan might.
Speaker 3
Jason, just watch the show. I think you're so in that clip, you're dressed like you work at the mental hospital.
What's the difference between what? Why does that?
Speaker 3 Listen, I've seen Shutter Island before, Travis. When you start working at mental institutions, all sorts of crazy things start happening with the characters.
Speaker 3 People who you think are one thing start turning into other things. No, that's because
Speaker 3
I've seen before, baby. So somebody in there is crazy, and I don't know who it is, but it's going to have.
It might be Nisi. It probably is Nisi.
What?
Speaker 3
You just said it was me, and now you're saying it's Nisi. You're a child.
I don't think you're a real deal with it. I don't think you're a real character.
Speaker 3 I think you're a made-up figment of Nisi's imagination, is what I think.
Speaker 3
Damn, man. I can't even be a real character.
If you didn't watch the first two episodes, make sure you watch the first two episodes so you know what you're getting yourself into.
Speaker 3
This shit is crazy. It is insane.
It is
Speaker 3
very mysterious. I can't wait.
I can't. Yeah, I'm excited for everybody to keep seeing how
Speaker 3
everything unfolds. So, tonight, Grotesquery on FX.
Make sure you guys check it out. And you can also check it out on Hulu the next day.
Oh, nice.
Speaker 3
Makes it easy if you want to just binge watch the first three episodes. But if you want to see it live, check it out tonight.
And moving on to the last bit of news.
Speaker 3 If you're looking for a new cookbook and want to support a great cause, Mama Kelse, ha ha, Mamadana, has contributed to the cooking with the stars with two R's on it.
Speaker 3 She has a new cookbook coming out, Jason. This book is being sold to support the Star Children's Fund and raise money for
Speaker 3
pediatric cancer research, which is always a good cause. Mom's the best.
Isn't she just the sweetest woman in the world? Yes, she is. And she knows how to cook now.
Speaker 3 She does.
Speaker 3 She does.
Speaker 3
You don't get two big old boys like this without knowing how to cook. That's right.
All right, now. The Star Fund was funded by Green Bay Packer legend and two-time Super Bowl champion Bart Starr.
Speaker 3
How about that? And his wife Sherry Starr. So that's why the two Rs on the foundation, Star Children's Foundation.
There we go. And this is the recipe Mama Kelse submitted.
Speaker 3
So let's see what Mama Kelse threw in there. I think we know what it is.
What is it? Lasagna?
Speaker 3
No, that was dad. Baked, sweetened, spicy chicken breasts.
She never fucking made this for us. Yeah, I've never had this.
What?
Speaker 3 I'm calling nonsense on this. She got real good when she left, when she when we left the house she got real good yeah when dad stopped slowing her down she yeah

Speaker 3
First up, we got a ton of movie suggestions from you, 92%ers, for the New Heights Film Club that we were talking about last week. Hey, which I'm pretty excited about.
I'm actually
Speaker 3
really into watching some movies right now. I don't know what happened.
I just, I don't know. I just got the bug of just like pressing play, you know?
Speaker 3
We're also in the middle of a season where you're like traveling a lot and there's plenty of time to watch movies. Nice.
All right, so let's start this thing off.
Speaker 3
For the film club, we're going to narrow this list down to two finalists right now. Me and Jason R.
And then we're going to.
Speaker 3
Yeah, and then we're going to go ahead and give those two finalists a vote to the 92%ers. On which one we do first? On which one we're going to watch.
Yes.
Speaker 3
We'll review the winning movie on the next Wondry Plus exclusive episode. Does that mean whichever one loses or watching second? No, it does not.
We'll just keep doing these
Speaker 3
votes. Yeah, keep doing these votes and let the 92%ers tell us what they they want to hear because it's you know it's up to them.
So we've narrowed it down to these choices, yeah.
Speaker 3 These are these are the movie suggestions that we got that we saw that were kind of along the lines that we were uh talking about last week. Um, one, the first one being Space Balls.
Speaker 3 I mean, I would love to re-watch space.
Speaker 3 I would love to re-watch it. I only remember it like it was almost like it was a parody of like Star Wars.
Speaker 3 You know, like, wasn't it, wasn't it just like a joke?
Speaker 3
It wasn't almost like a parody. It was a full-on parody.
Yeah, that's what I thought. It's not like a, I don't remember it all like that.
Speaker 3 I just remember them having like the tall gold looking thing that looked like it was supposed to be fucking whatever, RTV.
Speaker 3 It was Spaceball. I was so young when I watched Spaceballs.
Speaker 3 I watched a part of it as an adult, and I can just tell that there are a, I mean, there's infinitely more references I'm going to get and enjoy out of that movie now, being older.
Speaker 3 Do we have to watch the Star Wars that came out before that, though, to understand the references and stuff? I feel like we might have to.
Speaker 3
Have you not seen all the Star Wars movies? I don't remember them. There's you've seen them, though.
You know them enough to get Space Balls.
Speaker 3
Spaceballs. All right.
Space Balls.
Speaker 3 Remember the Titans.
Speaker 3
I remember like it was yesterday. I don't even need to watch that one.
Kazam. Do you remember that one? Kazam is a classic.
Shaquille O'Neal.
Speaker 3 yeah love actually i don't remember that one yeah oh who's that guy hugh grant maybe hugh grant the guy that went to the t swift show in england yeah who was the man yeah he was um he's pretty good looking i mean he still got it for sure uh necessary roughness this was i remember it was a football movie i couldn't tell you anybody that was in it let me look this up real quick necessary roughness i don't know why i want to say sinbad was in it.
Speaker 3
Necessary Roughness. Sinbad is in it.
That is correct.
Speaker 3 He is.
Speaker 3 He is.
Speaker 3
I don't remember this movie. Dude, I'm big.
I was in on every Sinbad movie. I forget half of them, though.
I forget the titles of them. I know which one you're talking about.
Speaker 3
They have the race at the end of it. Yes, dude.
What movie was that? Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants. Definitely not watching that one again.
This movie does remind me.
Speaker 3
That does remind me of another movie. Blake Ladder.
Nice.
Speaker 3
I'm surprised you've even seen that. Sorry, Blake.
Sorry, Blake. I'm surprised you've even seen that.
I haven't seen that. And I don't plan on seeing it.
Speaker 3 I was out after it said Sisterhood
Speaker 3 and got even
Speaker 3 your household full of sisterhood. And got even more out when it said of the traveling pants.
Speaker 3 There's multiple things I'm not interested in about this movie and just the title alone. But this does remind me of...
Speaker 3 What's the movie with Whoopi Goldberg where she's the nun?
Speaker 3
Sister Act. Sister Act.
Get this one out of there. We need Sister Act in there.
Sister Act 2, though. I want Sister Act 2, though.
Sister Act 2 was... That was more my jam.
Speaker 3
They brought in, I believe, kids, and it was a whole lot more fun. I feel like I've already re-watched.
The Goonies is so common that you end up re-watching it, right? Yeah. Have you seen The Goonies?
Speaker 3 Yes, I've seen The Goonies, Jason. Okay, who's
Speaker 3
the large fellow in Goonies? What's his name? I don't know. No, not him.
Not him. Not him.
Snickers guy? I don't fucking know. Chunk.
You're talking about... Oh, you're the guy?
Speaker 3 You mean the little fucking kid? Oh, my gosh.
Speaker 3 What?
Speaker 3
You're talking about a grown-ass man. My best friend's wedding.
When did you watch all these movies? I'm pretty sure I've seen it. Who's in it? Before I look it up.
Speaker 3
I don't know. I mean.
Oh, Julia Roberts. Yep.
No, I haven't seen that one either. Yeah, I'm not watching that one again.
Parent Trap. Classic.
Yeah, that's a good one. Classic Disney movie.
Speaker 3
Bridget Jones Diary. Ah, no, thank you.
No, not Disney.
Speaker 3 not a big diary, guy. Heavyweights.
Speaker 3
I mean, I watched it yesterday. I'll watch it again.
And then I have everybody on the team watching heavyweights. This one is one that mom recommended because we used to watch it all the time as kids.
Speaker 3
Oh, mom, Swiss Family Robinson. Again, one of those that I just rather not.
Have you re-watched it? No. Trav? Yeah.
Do yourself a favor. Yeah.
Speaker 3 You should go re-watch it.
Speaker 3 Do you love it? No, it's terrible.
Speaker 3 It's not terrible, okay? It was fucking state-of-the-art.
Speaker 3
It was the best, hottest movie out in 1960 when it came out, dude. When mom was a kid.
Go re-watch it. You love watching old 1960s movies, though.
You're fucking, you love that shit. Of course I do.
Speaker 3 Listen, I get like some guilty pleasure watching it, but it's one of those old ones that puts up the disclaimer at the front end: like, oh, we're about to see some culturally inappropriate material for 2024.
Speaker 3
It's not funny. We can't laugh at that.
It's just full-on animal, like,
Speaker 3
dude. I'm out.
It's animal mistreatment. It's, there's a full-on tiger and a dog fighting in one of the scenes, and it's a little bit too real.
You know what I mean?
Speaker 3
Like, it ain't, I don't care how good you are at acting. They're riding an ostrich or an emu at one of the points.
That's full-on just riding it.
Speaker 3 I mean, I don't think you get away with that these days.
Speaker 3 no you can't so it looks like it's either space balls we got to pick from these kazam this is these are the ones i'm i'm thinking right now space balls kazam give me your top two i'll give you my top two and then we'll just go from there of these of these i don't these aren't my favorite that were submitted these are like brittannin and jake's it's not up to you jason this is why they go to one tree plus I mean, I've already watched, I watch Heavyweights probably once a month.
Speaker 3 It's the best movie of all time. I can't re-watch heavyweights.
Speaker 3
It's the best. It's by far the best movie on here.
Next is Space Balls. I'll put this.
Space Balls, I'll put Space Balls up there. It's not really a kid movie, which is kind of the reason we did this.
Speaker 3 But Space Balls, I feel like we're going to get way more references being older and watching it.
Speaker 3
And I haven't watched it in its entirety in a long time. So I'll go Space Balls.
All right. And, oh, yeah, we said two.
Yeah. There's just a lot of chick flicks.
Speaker 3 We got a lot of Swifties trying to make us watch bad movies.
Speaker 3 I'll go Space Balls and
Speaker 3 can we do Sister Act?
Speaker 3
Sister Act 2. I'm only doing Sister Act 2.
How about Naked Guns? Spaceballs and Naked Guns.
Speaker 3
I can't. I'll go Space Balls and the Goonies.
I've seen the Goonies and Heavyweights because they're two
Speaker 3
movies that people watch frequently. All right.
I'm going to say, I mean, it's... I guess it's Spaceballs.
I was going to say Necessary Roughness just to...
Speaker 3 I've never seen that movie, which would actually be pretty dope. That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 3 All right, let's throw necessary roughness in there for sure because i've never even seen it yeah i think i have like after i looked at the thing i was like maybe i have seen this but i certainly don't remember it or any details it's like some type of college team necessary roughness and i guess uh let's go space balls fuck it you know bridges jones diary i mean i'll watch it i don't have a problem with any of these jason
Speaker 3 i'll watch whatever one i don't have a problem with them either but if we put one of these chick flicks on there it's gonna fucking win
Speaker 3
All right, which chick-flick? We got to do one chick-flick and one that we. All right, so necessary.
I just, what is sisterhood of the traveling pants about?
Speaker 3
Like, it's just talking about hand-me-down pants. That's the that's the premise of the movie.
Hand-me-downs? What the fuck do you have against hammy-downs?
Speaker 3 I don't fucking-man-I don't have anything wrong against it. I just don't know what the fuck there needs to be a movie.
Speaker 3 Why does there need to be a movie about hand-me-downs? Fucking guy, because sometimes it turns into a nice story, Jason.
Speaker 3
I just accidentally, I just trying to Google Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, I typed in Sisterhood of the Ham-Me-Downs. You're a dickhead.
Did Traveling Pants show up? No.
Speaker 3
No, that would have been great. That would have been great.
You know, I'm going to go here. All right.
We're going to do this. We're going to Wikipedia this.
What is Sisterhood? No, Jason.
Speaker 3
This isn't that. This is not that.
Why are you turning it into that? What do you mean? This is just we pick two fucking names and keep it moving and let the 92%ers do it.
Speaker 3
All right, Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants. God damn it.
2005 American Comming of Age comedy, drama, film directed by Ken Quapis.
Speaker 3
And I'm sure you reading that just made you think, oh yeah, I want to watch this. I don't want to watch this.
It gave you absolutely nothing. That's a long plot.
Speaker 3 Rotten Tomatoes has an approval rating of 82%.
Speaker 3 It's high.
Speaker 3 Must be some good pants.
Speaker 3 I mean, I'm going to have to watch this fucking movie now. This is the point of doing.
Speaker 3 All right, Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, it is. Let's go.
Speaker 3
So I'll watch some pants. It's going to be great.
Twilight, at least Twilight had vampires. There was something exciting.
Speaker 3 You don't know what this movie has.
Speaker 3
I know this movie does not have vampires. This is not like fucking dust till dawn.
They're not going to be vampires appearing out of nowhere.
Speaker 3 Who would have fucking thought that Jason needed vampires to watch a fucking movie about women?
Speaker 3 He goes right back to the plot.

Speaker 3
Because, Jason, you have to leave the house. We talk about this year in, year out.
I don't want to leave the house. You're a golfer now, though.
You have a golf t-shirt on right now.
Speaker 3
So you are a golfer. I tell you what, if I, if I swung more like Tony and didn't take my backswing like John Daly, I would be so better at golf.
Dude, he is so just smooth.
Speaker 3
He doesn't get too crazy with the backswing. He's short on the backswing, too.
He's got a nice, he doesn't over-rotate it, which I always, I'm like, why, why don't I just do that?
Speaker 3
Yeah, big dude, big guy, 6'5, 6'6, however tall Tody is, man. Do you remember he dislocated his ankle and kept playing? Yeah, remember that? He's a warrior.
Yeah, I do remember that.
Speaker 3 What is the worst place to drop? You got to fight for your right to party.
Speaker 3 A sobriety
Speaker 3 at a
Speaker 3
I can't say that. At the I can't say any of this.
At the ICU.
Speaker 3 Yeah, at the ICU.
Speaker 3
The DUI checkpoint. Basically anything that has to do with you shouldn't be partying.
After at the end of a Depends commercial.
Speaker 3 After a gambling anonymous
Speaker 3 convention. I don't fucking know.
Speaker 3
Gamblers Anonymous. Yeah.
I kind of want to say like a funeral, but I kind of also feel like it'd be fucking dope. Oh, you got to celebrate.
You got to celebrate.
Speaker 3
That's a great line to drop it if you. Depending on how they passed, you know, but you got to celebrate.
Oh, if they passed partying. Might not want to.
Speaker 3 Might not want to go too hard.
Speaker 3
This isn't funny, man. What's the worst place to drop it? You got to fight for your right to party.
I don't know. I'm just not getting anything else good off the top of my head.
A chess championship?
Speaker 3 When you've been drinking all day and you come home
Speaker 3 without giving any text messages to your wife or heads up
Speaker 3 and you walk through the door.
Speaker 3 You gotta fight
Speaker 3
while Bennett's asleep. It's not gonna go over well.
A divorce hearing? Well, I probably would be at a divorce hearing if I did that.
Speaker 3
All right, let's go. All right, that was fun.
That was fun. And for our last fan mention, Dancing Jason is officially everywhere, all over Philadelphia.
Speaker 3
You got murals and all types of shit popping up in Philly because you were in that South Philly tuxedo. Hey, baby.
Up on stage. We got this tweet from 92%er, our light all good.
Speaker 3
With a mural of Jason in his South Philly tuxedo. That's right.
Oh, so it's not actually painted on. It's just like a piece of paper that he just kind of like glues.
Speaker 3
Yeah, it's like wall paint, wallpaper. He's like applying wallpaper.
Still sweet, though. Yeah, I mean, it's dope.
It's vandalism. It's, it's, you know, the city's going to have to clean it up.
Speaker 3 It's vandalism. Yeah.
Speaker 3
You can take that off. It's not vandalism.
I mean, well, listen, vandalism is part of Philadelphia's pastime. I think it's
Speaker 3 not anti-vandalism. Don't encourage it, though.
Speaker 3
Don't have people out here trying to fucking vandalize everything. That's how you get the broken glass theory.
Did you ever TP a house growing up? No. Did you ever like egg a car? No.
Okay. All right.
Speaker 3 We'll keep it moving. Did you? Of course not.
Speaker 3 I feel like you definitely did. No.
Speaker 3
Why are you bringing it up? I just was curious if you had ever done that. You look like...
Whose car did you egg? I didn't egg anybody's car, Jason.
Speaker 3 Did you egg somebody's just happened to a cardinet eggs only cost like $2.50.
Speaker 3
Yeah. What'd you do with the eggs though? Boiled them.
You boiled them? What else did you do with eggs? You made hard-boiled eggs and then you threw them? That's dangerous. I just need the protein.
Speaker 3
Throw some salt in the bottom. Oh, you ate them.
Yeah. All right.
What'd you do with the toilet paper? Get the eggs on the back end? No.
Speaker 3 I TP'd my friend's house.
Speaker 3
Who's what'd you think? It was somebody that I knew, though. I'm not about to say who it is.
Come on, you got to say. I've been lying to their face my entire life saying that it wasn't me.
Oh,
Speaker 3 but now they're going to watch this. They're going to know it's them.
Speaker 3
I have no idea. They're going to know.
There's no way. There's absolutely no way.
Let's see if I can guess. Whose house would Travis TP?
Speaker 3
You wouldn't know. It was one of the Catholic school friends.
One of the guys on the baseball team? Not baseball. Hockey? Not hockey either.
Yeah, then I'm lost. It's all good, though.
Speaker 3 Do you hung out with Catholic school guys that weren't on your baseball or hockey team? I mean, friends hang out with friends.
Speaker 3
Like the Catholic, I would go hang out with the hockey friends, and they would have their Catholic school friends and all that. Yeah.
We'd go up to Cortland Oval, play baseball, football, basketball.
Speaker 3 You know it. It's a little
Speaker 3 sandlot group.
Speaker 3 So it's part of the pickup group that played at Fairfax? Courtland Oval, baby, right there on Fairmount. Which one's that one? I don't remember that one.
Speaker 3 You would know it if you saw it. It's between Fairmount and
Speaker 3 I mean, it's on Fairmount between Warrensville Center Road and like
Speaker 3
Taylor. You would know it if you saw it.
Like you're going to Beechwood, but it's like before that? Yeah, exactly. I'm actually surprised you even knew which general direction I was going.
Speaker 3 Well, Fairmount's tricky because it curves right around there. It is
Speaker 3
very straight. It is very straight.
No, no, no. Once you get past Lee, it does that little curve.
Speaker 3
Oh, you're talking about going downtown. Yeah.
All right. Yeah, yeah.
The beautiful street, though. Shout out to Cleveland Heights, Ohio.
And dancing, Jason, was also an early Halloween costume.
Speaker 3 How about that? Oh, Halloween's right around the corner, brother.
Speaker 3 Yes, sir.
Speaker 3
Hey, hey. I did not do that.
What is that? That's about as good as what yours was, too. That was pretty on point.
It is pretty good. Yeah.
The beard is hilarious.
Speaker 3 I mean, she kind of looks like the Grinch, like, dressed up as Jason.
Speaker 3
The Grinch version of Jason Kelsey. Yeah, that's pretty good.
Shout out to 92%er Ella Belaberk. The costume, 10 out of 10.
Speaker 3
The look, 10 out of 10. The dance, 10 out of 10.
I think she fucking killed it. Yeah.
I give it a, I mean, she's probably better at dancing than I am. Yeah, don't sell yourself short, sweetie.
Speaker 3 You are a star.
Speaker 3 Is this like a sorority? This is a sorority thing.
Speaker 3
Nice. I was wondering who does Halloween before October.
So they probably are the ones who recommended the sisterhood of the traveling pants thing. Nice.
They're probably big traveling pants fans.
Speaker 3
Way to tie it all together. All right.
Well, can't wait to watch it. And that does it for Fan Manchester of the Week.
Brought to you by MetaQuest. Expand your world with the virtual reality.
Speaker 3
Gotta love it. Mom and dad, mom and mom, dad and dad, whatever.
Parents, are you about to spend five hours in the car with your beloved kids this holiday season? Driving to old Granny's house?
Speaker 3 I'm setting the scene. I'm picturing screaming, fighting, back-to-back hours of the K-pop Demon Hunters soundtrack on repeat.
Speaker 3
Well, when your ears start to bleed, I have the perfect thing to keep you from rolling out of that moving vehicle. Something for the whole family.
He's filled with laughs. He's filled with rage.
Speaker 3 The OG Green Gronk, give it up for me, James Austin Johnson, as the Grinch.
Speaker 3 And like any insufferable influencer these days, I'm bringing my crew of lesser talented friends along for the ride with A-list guests like Gronk, Mark Hamill, and the Jonas Brothers, whoever they are.
Speaker 3
There's a little bit of something for everyone. Listen to Tis the Grinch Holiday Podcast wherever you get your podcasts.
All right, now let's get to some football. How about that?
Speaker 3
All righty, let's talk some football. Let's kick things off with Travis's game.
Chief 17, Chargers 10.
Speaker 3
Oh, yeah. How about that? Two high-powered offenses right there.
We got to talk about the game. You got any initial thoughts for us? I'll tell you what, man.
That stadium is a...
Speaker 3 SoFi is dope.
Speaker 3
Yeah, SoFi is so dope. And I think it's even cooler during the day because you get the...
The day games, you get the sun beaming through kind of like that plexiglass or whatever that is over the top.
Speaker 3 And it it just, it really
Speaker 3 brings light into that stadium like no other stadium I've been in, or at least no other dome I've ever been in.
Speaker 3 That place was fun, and it was rocking, man.
Speaker 3 That was the first Chargers game I had been to in a long time where their fan base is starting to really get behind the chiefs. Get the fuck out of here.
Speaker 3 You know there are more Chiefs fans there.
Speaker 3 I mean, Chiefs travel, but at the same time, like... Chargers games are never that packed.
Speaker 3
Yeah, it's usually dominant. Whenever we play them, it's usually a sea of Eagles fans.
I'm I'm not sure. And then on top of that, it's not like packed to the T.
It's like that game.
Speaker 3
Yeah, that thing was, I mean, it was rocking. I enjoyed the atmosphere.
Cool. Obviously, still a lot of things we got to clean up on the offensive side, defensively.
Speaker 3 Man, we are pretty damn stout right now.
Speaker 3 Outside of that first drive for a touchdown and the turnover that led to their field goal, I think our defense is the best in the league right now. And I just love Spaggs
Speaker 3
and everybody on that defensive side that's playing their tail off, both in the run and the past game. Huge, huge fourth down stops week in, week out.
Teams are just trying to dial up those that extra
Speaker 3 trying to dial up plays and kind of steal an extra fourth down conversion on us late in the game and keep control of the game and trying to take the lead. And our defense just keeps coming up big.
Speaker 3
It happened in the Falcons game. It happened in the Bengal's game.
It happened in this game. And it's just, I mean, I can't say
Speaker 3 how much I appreciate these guys and how hard they're working throughout the week to be prepared for these kind of things. And yeah, but on the offensive side of the ball, man, we got to get rolling.
Speaker 3 And it's not going to be any easier with seeing Rashi go down during the game. I just love the way that guy was playing the game of football, how he was attacking every single day in practice.
Speaker 3
You know, sometimes you just root so hard for the guys that do it the right way. And Rashi had been doing that, man.
And that was a huge dagger to me when I saw him go down, man.
Speaker 3 Outside of that, found a way to get the ball in the end zone late.
Speaker 3 Running the hell out of the ball.
Speaker 3 Our offensive line is our biggest weapon right now. Those guys up front are fucking paving the way.
Speaker 3 Tight ends included with Noah Gray, my guy Jay Wiley coming in and wide receivers doing their job in the run game, you know,
Speaker 3
going in there, digging out safeties or just making blocks downfield. You've got to find a way to win ball games.
Sometimes it takes those little things
Speaker 3 that
Speaker 3 don't get kind of the highlight all the time. You know,
Speaker 3 wide receivers going in, digging out safeties for an extra four or five yards or just doing enough to get the running back downhill so we can get the first down.
Speaker 3 And then just running backs running their tail loss, getting those extra two, three yards on every single run.
Speaker 3 And I couldn't be happier for Kareem Hunt to come back and have, you know, such a good game on his first game back in Kansas City, knowing everything that happened to him back in, I think it was 2018.
Speaker 3
And I just love that guy, man. Another Northeast Ohio ball player that just loves to play the game and does it right, man.
Yeah, absolutely.
Speaker 3 It was awesome seeing Kareem back out on the field for you guys.
Speaker 3
Yeah, it was a great game for you. You got another one in the win column.
I know you guys are still trying to click things offensively at a more efficient level, but hey, 4-0 is 4-0.
Speaker 3 And we did get something going this past week,
Speaker 3 and that is the Big Yeti. The Big Yeti, obviously,
Speaker 3 had notably
Speaker 3
been struggling a little bit through the first three weeks. Well, he finally gets going.
I was struggling in terms of stats. I was still playing winning football, and
Speaker 3
that's all that fucking matters. Well, he still led all receivers with several receptions for 89 yards.
First drive of the game was the big 38-yard reception. Let's check this out.
Speaker 3
First drive of the game, 38-yard reception. The Big Yeti catches it over the shoulder.
Beautiful ball by Pat Mahomes. Just throwing dimes.
There we go. Anyways, a lot of noise throughout the week.
Speaker 3
Jim Nance had you're back on the broadcast all week. Hot takes.
You got to find something else to someone else to troll this week.
Speaker 3
I thought Andy said it best when he said, I don't give a damn what anybody says. Essentially.
What did Andy say?
Speaker 3 He definitely said something in the press conference afterwards where it's like, yeah,
Speaker 3
everything else is noise. And I said it on here on the podcast last week.
Everything outside of
Speaker 3
the building is just noise. Big game.
What
Speaker 3
What is 89 yards? A big game. It's a solid game.
Yeah.
Speaker 3
A big game is like I score a touchdown or something. If you don't go over the 100-yard mark, it's not a big game for the beginning.
Just being honest.
Speaker 3
Yeah. I mean, I was accountable this game.
I didn't have any drops, which was
Speaker 3 what happened in Atlanta to make me feel like I had a bad game. But
Speaker 3 I still didn't have an outstanding game. There's a lot that goes into having a great game, but I did have seven catches, which is a lot of times times I get the rock and I got north with it.
Speaker 3
So it is what it is. Help my team find a way to win.
And that is all that will ever matter. For those of you that don't know, Pat Mahomes is 13 and 12.
In games, he's trailed by 10 or more points.
Speaker 3
That's right. What? The only quarterback with a winning record in such situations.
What? Since at least 1950. Who the fuck was doing it back in 1950?
Speaker 3 Who's the old gunslinger finding a way to make these comebacks after back when they were running the wishbone? I didn't even know they had quarterbacks in 1950.
Speaker 3 He's also 12-0 the last 12 times is his. Oh, no, no, no, no, no.
Speaker 3
Okay, yeah, sorry. Yep.
Patient is a baseball player. Everybody knows baseball players are superstition.
You can't talk about it. Oh, yeah.
You couldn't talk about it. Okay, sorry.
My fault. My fault.
Speaker 3
Keep moving. Keep moving.
Keep moving. Early in the game, Rasheed Rice.
Speaker 3
Oh, man. Unfortunately, injured on an interception return, a little friendly fire.
I hate when that happens. The rest of the receivers did step up in Rashid's absence for the game.
Speaker 3
The most electric play of the game came in the second quarter. Pat connects with Xavier Worthy, the rookie on a 54-yard touchdown.
It was now 10-7 going into the half.
Speaker 3 Per next-gen stats, Pat's 54-yard pass to Xavier Worthy that we're going to show you right here, traveled 62.2 yards in the air. That's right.
Speaker 3
Mahomes' longest completion by air distance of his career. I didn't know that.
I would have thought he would have thrown one that far to Tyree. Nice little throwback.
Speaker 3 For those of you that don't know what that is, it's when you act like you're nakeding out, you pull up and throw back the direction of which you came.
Speaker 3 Because a lot of times on the nakeds or boot action, everybody kind of flows in the direction the quarterback's rolling out to. So these have been kind of hot this year.
Speaker 3
It feels like the throwbacks have been on everybody's radar. Yeah.
I think we had been running the ball so well these first couple weeks.
Speaker 3 I think the safety started to get a little bit more eyes in the backfield. And I'll tell you what, man, you take your eyes off of Xavier Worthy, man.
Speaker 3 That guy is going to be past you in a blink of an eye you ain't lying
Speaker 3 yeah and he was absolutely flying on this one running at a top speed of 21.46 miles per hour which is that that'll get you a ticket in the school zone kids I was about to say the same thing
Speaker 3 that'll get you a speeding ticket that'll get you pulled over third fastest play by a ball carrier this season I think we saw one last night on Monday Night Countdown where Derrick Henry was fucking rolling uh going i think, closer to 22 miles per hour, which is fucking mind-blowing that a man that big can get moving that fucking fast.
Speaker 3 But
Speaker 3 X was flying on that one, came up big
Speaker 3 later on in the game to seal the game off on
Speaker 3 the final drive, knowing that we were trying to run the clock out there.
Speaker 3 Just can't say enough about what he's been for this offense so far and just to see him keep growing in it, you know, becoming more and more accountable every single week.
Speaker 3
Seems like the rookie's finding more and more of his place within the offense. Obviously, Rice going down.
He's being thrust into more plays that he was probably getting ready to perform in the game.
Speaker 3
But he sure answered the bell. Happy for him, man.
And a few guys stepped up in Pacheco's absence as well. Kareem Hunt back in the KC uniform and had 69 yards on 14 carries.
Nice day for Kareem.
Speaker 3
And running back Samajay Pirine came up big with the game-winning touchdown. That's right in the fourth quarter.
It was also his first touchdown as a Kansas City Chief.
Speaker 3
Hey, game winner and your first touchdown. Shout out to Samajay, man.
If you watch this clip, man, you'll see my guy, Trey Smith, just absolutely bulldoze everybody because it comes, it
Speaker 3
becomes a bit of like a cloud of dust there for a second down there at the goal line. And then you just see 6'5 just come in.
It just bulldoze.
Speaker 3 Just Zamboni drive Samajay into the end zone there and give him that extra push.
Speaker 3 All righty, Chris Jones and the defense.
Speaker 3 Another week, another dominating performance by the Chiefs defense, who held the Chargers to 10 points and didn't allow a single point in the last 48 minutes and 53 seconds of the game.
Speaker 3
I'm telling you. The defense finished with five tackles for loss, 10 quarterback chance, and two sacks, both coming from none other than Stone Cold Jones.
He didn't need to steal it this week.
Speaker 3 CEO of the game.
Speaker 3
That's right. Stone Cold Jones, biggest play of the game, came with four minutes left in the game.
Third down.
Speaker 3
Sacks, Justin Herbert, forcing the Chargers to punt. 326 left to play.
I think I remember seeing this. He got it.
Was he at end on that one? I think so, man.
Speaker 3 That's the thing about this defense, man. You got so many guys that can rush the quarterback in so many different ways.
Speaker 3 They can get a guy that plays typically, plays the end, and he can get inside and make moves on a guard.
Speaker 3 And a guy like Chris Jones, he can literally hurt you anywhere on the field when he's rushing the quarterback.
Speaker 3
And sometimes getting the big man outside and giving him just the edge to rush is a tackle's worst nightmare, man. You guys did this a bunch, and you brought both of them.
This is what I like.
Speaker 3 So, you guys brought, so we call it flash in the game. I saw it brought multiple times, which is what we used to call the will and the free safety would blitz.
Speaker 3
And you'd be a fire zone typically, and you would rush five. That's like the conventional way of running like a wham blitz with the free safety and the will.
Yeah, away from the petition.
Speaker 3 For everybody that doesn't, a fire zone blitz is when you blitz five guys and you play defense or play zone coverage in the back end with six. Yeah, usually it's 3D, three under conventionally.
Speaker 3 Well, actually, that's probably conventionally. Now everybody's doing it and running palms behind it with like quarters, which is
Speaker 3 you're protecting the deeper throw and forcing the quarterback to have to think quick on his feet on where he needs to go with the ball underneath.
Speaker 3
Meaning, instead of the deeper routes, you throw it to the shorter routes. And the reason that that one is getting tricky is like because of what they do right here.
They actually only brought four.
Speaker 3 So they make it look like it's going to be that same
Speaker 3
five guys rushing, but really they're only going to rush four and play like a conventional coverage behind it. So Herbert gets caught.
You can tell. Like he thinks it's there.
It's tough.
Speaker 3 Also, the running back does a terrible job.
Speaker 3 That's who got Chris the sack. The running back missing that blitzer got that.
Speaker 3 Guys are hitting it though, man. This is what happens.
Speaker 3 they mug the guys up and they come so then the running back's like i got to be firm in that gap then all of a sudden they drop and the safety's blitzing on the other side and they are and you're late to that one yeah our guys when they hit it now yeah they're xavier worthy in it 21 miles an hour they're speeding you ain't lying guys are flying in there either way um chris jones gets a big sack towards the end of the game it doesn't seem like anybody can block him i'm not just saying this because chris has been good for a while that i dare i say he might be the most impressive i've ever seen him right now through the first four weeks he just feels like he's anytime he's one-on-one he's winning i don't know it's been impressive yeah especially if you're not getting the ball out on time that's for damn sure chris is yeah chris is just he's he's on the hunt man he's yeah he's he i
Speaker 3 the ceo with sack nation baby come on now it's stone cold jones don't do that voice sorry well the
Speaker 3 our guys uh guys over at waves got us uh some lebron stats of the game uh sunday's game was the first time a reigning college national championship winning coach faced off against the reigning Super Bowl-winning coach.
Speaker 3 How about that? Jim Bajarbal was the national champion at Michigan last year
Speaker 3 and is the Chargers' sixth head coach since I've been in the league, which is crazy.
Speaker 3 And to be honest, he brought some of his staff from Michigan, which is a smart move.
Speaker 3 I mean, you're comfortable with your guys, and their defensive coordinator is a coach of mine and and jason's actually that's right i actually his father i i actually um
Speaker 3 uh
Speaker 3 jesse's dad was a coach with me in philadelphia rick rick man
Speaker 3 rick man rick was the he was the head coach of cincinnati before we got there with mark d'antonio yeah but anyways go ahead sorry no so jesse a mentor and i got to say what's up to him on the field so when we were at cincinnati this is how this is how you know we're getting fucking on i say we're seriously once the guys that were yeah 100 go ahead go ahead so gas are typically, the graduate assistants at colleges are typically the guys that they do a lot of the,
Speaker 3 I don't want to say dirty work because that makes it seem like it's not a great.
Speaker 3
I mean, that's what it is. They're doing all the work.
You're doing a lot of work. You're putting Excel sheets together.
You're putting all the film together.
Speaker 3 You're basically doing all the tedious stuff so that the offensive and defensive coordinators can be a little bit more focused on the bigger things, right?
Speaker 3 Well, they want to focus on the tape and they want to focus on the game planning. So the GAs end up doing, like basically making all of the scout team cards.
Speaker 3
They end up inputting a lot of the data into the computers, like all of the backlogging of everything, the GAs are kind of in charge of. Yeah, all the organizational stuff.
Yeah.
Speaker 3 And it's, it's really, it's a big piece in the, in the grand scheme of things
Speaker 3 when it comes down to it. And Jesse was one of my favorite.
Speaker 3
I used to call him Coach Minner now that he's a defensive coordinator in the in the NFL. No, he's Jesse Duss.
He's not our coach. He's Jesse.
Speaker 3 He was literally holding up the Scout Team cards as I was a Scout Team quarterback my freshman year. That's funny.
Speaker 3 Which is hilarious because now he's game planning against me in the National Football League 15 years later. And yeah,
Speaker 3
it was awesome to see, though, man. And to be honest, that dude, I mean, he has got shit figured out.
Yeah, he's killing it.
Speaker 3 I mean, I was talking to Pat, and there was one time in the game where it was a big third down, I think. And
Speaker 3 he put together a blitz that we had not seen before on tape
Speaker 3 and
Speaker 3 got us pretty good there. But
Speaker 3 yeah, shout out to Jesse.
Speaker 3
He's absolutely killing it. Coach Menner, couldn't be more proud to say that I was once your scout team quarterback.
And yeah, shout out to Mike Elson.
Speaker 3 I was about to say Coach Elson's on the staff, too. So that was actually...
Speaker 3 Halfway through my redshirt freshman year, I started working with the tight ends to
Speaker 3
be more in tune with the offense. And they wanted to get me on the field and some of the up-tempo stuff.
Coach Kelly wanted to get me on the field and some of the up-tempo stuff. Blah, blah, blah.
Speaker 3 Coach Elson was technically my first ever tight end coach that I ever had. And I'll tell you what, he had a fun room.
Speaker 3 He was also the special teams coach, and we had a blast talking about a lot of the special teams guys, Christian McCafferty.
Speaker 3
Oh, my God. Colin McCafferty.
Colin McCaffrey. Yeah, sorry.
Like Colin McCaffery. And yeah, it was just, it was cool to see him.
Speaker 3 And I couldn't be happier for those guys, not only getting the national championship this year, but doing a great job in L.A. with the Chargers this year, man.
Speaker 3 So it was pretty cool playing against that coaching staff.
Speaker 3 And I got all the respect in the world for Coach Harbaugh as well. Do you talk to Jesse after the game? Did you see him on the show? I went up to him and said, what's up to him, man?
Speaker 3 I said, how about us, huh? 15 years later, look at us.
Speaker 3 Who would have thought? Who would have thought? Who would have thought? Me fucking up your cards and fucking
Speaker 3 do this. Hey, Travis, do this.
Speaker 3
I got you. I got you.
Oh, yeah, I got you. I got you.
Speaker 3
About to make plays, son. Yeah, go over to the wide receiver and tell them to do something completely different and completely fuck the entire.
Like, I'm not here to make the defense better.
Speaker 3
I'm trying to shine, baby. Hey, these DBs think this route's coming.
That's what they're game planning against. Let's give them this.
Speaker 3 That's 100%.
Speaker 3
Oh, my gosh. I remember that.
It's the most annoying thing ever when you were a starter. It's the most annoying thing.
Oh, my God. It's the best shit ever.
I was literally, I remember
Speaker 3 they didn't, they didn't like tell the D line, don't sack the quarterback.
Speaker 3 They didn't tell the D line that, like, especially the scout team, the scout team QB, it was like, no, like, that's your job is to like just eat shit for a year. Like, you're there to like be bullied.
Speaker 3 And man, Adam Hoppel used to fucking Adam Hoppel, great.
Speaker 3 Used to like clothesline me.
Speaker 3
So I told, so one day I just had enough of it. And I was just like, I told the guard and center that were, that he was lining up in front of him.
I was like, bro, just let him through.
Speaker 3
And they're like, what? I was just like, just do it. Just one time.
Just do it.
Speaker 3 I got the snap out of shotgun and I immediately just fucked like dodgeball. Just threw it right at him.
Speaker 3 Dude,
Speaker 3
he fucking speared my shit, dude. Yeah.
Just came through it. Just beat, just like, and after that, just gave me a few elbows to the fucking head.
Speaker 3 And I was just like, I mean, I deserved it, but fuck you. Yeah, just, just a little, I had to get at least one lick.
Speaker 3
Shout out to Hop, man. Great dude.
Same thing happened when I was a scout team defense back when I still played middle linebacker.
Speaker 3 We're doing a practice, and they used to let the offensive line cut the scout team guys. Like they never let anybody cut, but they would let those guys cut you guys to practice.
Speaker 3
And this is why Dantonio was great. This is why Dantonio was great.
So they were cutting guys, and we're getting freaking mad. And D'Antonio walked into the huddle.
Speaker 3 He's like, you're just going to let him cut you guys? You're just going to let let these guys do that to you? And I'm like, fuck, no, I'm not letting that.
Speaker 3 So, next play, I freaking Bobby Boucher, full-on tackle Bradley Glasson.
Speaker 3 And he's like, of course, doesn't see it coming. It's like,
Speaker 3 yeah, because that's, yeah, that's fucking hilarious. God damn it.
Speaker 3
Sometimes you just got to fucking bow up, boys. Even if you know you'll get yelled at or get your ass kicked for it.
Got me the scout team player of the year.
Speaker 3
Defensive player of the year. And And a boy, we went to Hawaii that year, and I was a part of the scout team that got invited to Hawaii.
There you go. Got me on the plane, maybe.
Speaker 3 Is this a LeBron stat? Travis officially passes legendary tight end Tony Gonzalez to become Chiefs all-time leader in receptions when he caught his 917th career reception. I have news to say.
Speaker 3 This is not a LeBron stat. That is an all-time stat.
Speaker 3 Yeah, it's a pretty legit stat. Considering who held the stat previously and what he's meant to the game of football in the tight end position,
Speaker 3
this is a milestone stat. And congratulations, Trav.
I know you're a humble guy, but that is incredible
Speaker 3
to see, to be honest with you. When we were watching Tony do it, I don't think anybody felt, and I still feel like most of his records aren't going to be broken.
Untouched.
Speaker 3
It's so freaking crazy when you look at his career stats. But to even touch something that he did with the Chiefs is mind-blowing in itself.
It's crazy how it all comes full circle, man. Yeah.
Speaker 3 Not only
Speaker 3 being in conversations with Tony, but being at the top of the leaderboard with the Kansas City Chiefs, who have been around since the 60s, have been such an unbelievable organization in the National Football League, one of the beginning organizations that made it all the way through that are still, you know, at their peak.
Speaker 3 And I just, I, I love Kansas City and the Chiefs and the opportunity that I've had here in KC. And a lot of that is due to the rich history that they have.
Speaker 3 And a guy like Tony Gonzalez, who has been a mentor to me, he's been right there, a lifeline if I ever needed it. I fucking love the guy.
Speaker 3 He's motivated me in ways that he doesn't even know.
Speaker 3 And I just...
Speaker 3 I've tried my entire career to match what he was to this organization, what he was to
Speaker 3 this game of football. And to be in conversations, not to say that I am as good as Tony, tony not to say that i've surpassed tony to be in a conversation as
Speaker 3 as cool as this having as many receptions in the in the organization that he spent the majority of his career in um it's just an honor man and um and tony i love your brother and it's uh
Speaker 3 i just i can't thank you enough for who you are as a person and who you've been in my in my career and um i've i've taken everything you've learned you've you've taught me and i've ran with it man and i've i've tried to i've tried to become better because of it it.
Speaker 3
And yeah, just love that guy, man. It's an honor.
Next week, the Chiefs are playing the Saints on Monday night football. What? Oh, yeah, babe.
How about that? I'm coming to town, Trav.
Speaker 3
You are coming to Double Sea. Nice.
You guys won't be in Bristol for this one? No, that's only one Monday night game. Oh, no.
So when the doubleheaders, you'll be out there.
Speaker 3
The doubleheaders were in Bristol. The single games were on site.
Yeah, the Chiefs have played the Saints twice before during Travis's career. 2016, Chiefs win 27-21.
2020 at the Superdome.
Speaker 3
the Chiefs win 32-29. We'll see how this one goes.
Saints look good the first couple weeks. They've taken a little step back, but don't, hey, don't get caught sleeping now.
They're pretty good.

All right, here we go now. Let's move on to Jason's week four back in Bristol for the old Monday night countdown.
Hey!
Speaker 3
Monday night double header. You guys, you just mentioned you go to Bristol for the back, the double headers you guys have on Monday Night Football and ESPN.
Mm-hmm, mm-hmm, mm-hmm, mm-hmm.
Speaker 3
For the second week in a row, Jason's shoes stole the spotlight on Monday Night Countdown. Why is everyone obsessed with my footwear? Because Jason doesn't dress up.
Jason dresses as. That's why.
Speaker 3
What am I dressed as here? I'm just wearing fucking boots. I didn't even know I was going to be showing on television.
I don't know. You're dressed as Jason Kelsey, I guess.
Speaker 3
You had to kick your feet up onto the desk to show the world the Tim's. My dog wore some butters on Monday Night Countdown.
Don't get it twisted, man.
Speaker 3 Everybody knew if you laced those things up at heights, you were getting fucking smoked. You were getting clowned as soon as you walked through the door.
Speaker 3
I have since learned that you can't lace up your butters. You just got to be willing to get fucking smoked.
It was actually a present that you got your legs up there.
Speaker 3 Those must be some stretchy jeans.
Speaker 3
These were not. Zero stretch.
Nice. Well, you're just a powerful, you were just a powerful man.
Those are good old
Speaker 3
wranglers. We also got this shot of you, and I need you to explain exactly what was going on.
Your first ever word spoken on ESPN Monday Night Countdown was had tits in it.
Speaker 3
And now you are showing your tits, essentially, on this trend. It's true.
It's true. Yeah.
Speaker 3
So hold on. I mean.
Your very tan tits. Yeah.
Somebody asked me what complexion this was. I was like, I don't know, you guys.
Speaker 3 He used a bronzer.
Speaker 3
We were doing a segment on Hutch Island talking about how. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Hutch is.
Speaker 3 Yeah, they find out how to get Hutch one-on-ones and build them into overload fronts and different, put them wide so that you can't can't really chip them and and the guard has trouble getting out to help so yep we were doing the island vibe so marcus spears had my ties made he had hats and sunglasses and then this shirt i don't know whose idea this shirt was but it was handed to me and i was just showing off my new shirt nice that makes sense i honestly didn't even know what it was when i was holding it up until it was like already at that point and then i looked down i was like oh okay all right nice perfect i thought the hat and glasses really made it a full get up so yeah and the floaty.
Speaker 3 Jason dressed as Hutch Island. Yeah.
Speaker 3
So, fits right in. Love the jacket.
I thought this was one of the most entertaining,
Speaker 3 you know,
Speaker 3 pregame countdowns that you guys had done to date. You guys
Speaker 3 spoke about even Tua and the concussion stuff that he had been going through, and how is he going to have to weigh that? It was such an educated conversation between the three of you guys and SVP.
Speaker 3
I just really love everybody's input. Everybody has a very different view of things.
And you guys are just, I just love the,
Speaker 3
I don't know, the camaraderie you guys got up there, man. It's cool.
It's fun to watch. I appreciate that.
We're getting better and better.
Speaker 3 You know, I think it's, you know, we're on our fourth time doing it together, which is crazy that, you know, we're doing this every single week live and you're still figuring out how it all works together.
Speaker 3
But it's been. helpful to me to be on there with guys that have been doing it at a high level for so long.
You know what I mean? Like, and know what they're doing. Like, I I can lean on Ryan.
Speaker 3
I can league on Swag. I can lean on Scott.
You know, they're the veterans right now. I'm the freaking scout team player of the year.
Speaker 3 Nice. Nice.
Speaker 3 Go ahead and fucking spear your starting left tackle.
Speaker 3
Yeah, dude. I got to get Ryan's, I got to get RC's fucking suit connect, man.
Those suits are looking fucking. It's ridiculous.
I don't even know what it is. They're looking sharp.
Speaker 3
Only a special guy can make that exact suit. So I got to get his connect.
But what is that style called that he's wearing? You're going to have to to ask RC, man.
Speaker 3
I honestly, I don't know, but it looks smooth. It looks smooth.
The lapel is very different. It is.
Bro, it was clean. Very clean.
Speaker 3
All right, let's talk about the rest of the storylines coming out of the NFL from week four. We're going to start with Eagles go down in Tampa.
Do we have to talk about this?
Speaker 3
We got to talk about this. Oh, yeah.
We're definitely talking about this. We're half Eagles, half Chiefs, man.
So Bucks 33, Eagles 16. Jason, go ahead and tell us your initial thoughts.
Speaker 3
I never go into a game not expecting the birds to win. I always, for some reason, and still going into a game, think the birds are going to perform well and win the game.
That being said,
Speaker 3 I was nervous going into this game, and I was nervous because we were missing A.J. Brown and Devontae Smith, and we were going up against a coordinator in Todd Bowles,
Speaker 3 who, when you are missing key players, can
Speaker 3 take away certain parts of the game if you're one-dimensional. That being said,
Speaker 3 I was not anticipating us playing so bad on both sides of the football that early. Like we
Speaker 3
had two, three and outs, and before we blinked, it was 21-0 in the first half. You know, I think they, they both sides just really struggled to start the game.
Offensively, there were some drops.
Speaker 3 The runs that we called didn't really work, and
Speaker 3 we got sacked on one of them. And it just like we got off to a really slow start.
Speaker 3 And then defensively, I just, you know, partially credit to Tampa Bay for really seeing stuff on film and taking advantage of some of the soft coverages that I think we had been playing.
Speaker 3 And right off the get-go, you just saw Baker ripping the ball into the flat. We had a missed tackle early from my guy, Avante, and it just felt like we were giving them a lot of yardage.
Speaker 3
And then after that, it just was like a cascading event. Like we couldn't stop the run.
It felt like we were.
Speaker 3
nervous to go and attack guys. And then it felt like they were just hitting the ball in behind.
Like it just felt like they could could do whatever they want.
Speaker 3
It was, and I think they set it up right from the get-go. They knew that that was there and they hit that.
And they're like, no, you're going to have to defend this area.
Speaker 3
And it felt like we just struggled from there. And part of it's like, listen, Baker played out of his mind.
He is playing great fucking football. Like, dude, he's playing lights out this year.
Speaker 3 I know he struggled against Denver last week, but it turns out it looks like Denver is pretty damn good on defense.
Speaker 3 But I mean, Baker, it just felt like, especially to start the game, he couldn't miss. He was throwing the ball perfectly.
Speaker 3
My man Slay's right on the receiver on like a post-route, and he just puts it in the perfect spot for a touchdown. He wasn't the dealer.
Baker was the freaking pit boss.
Speaker 3
Like he was controlling the entire thing. It was impressive to watch, to be honest with you.
Yeah. But yeah, we got to play better defensively.
I mean, there's no mistake.
Speaker 3
Like, we got to play better on both sides. I don't want us like single out the defensive side.
Yeah. Offensively, there were obviously guys missing.
Speaker 3
So it's kind of easier to understand why they struggled. Defensively, we got to get that figured out.
Offensively, we at least got to do better than we did. I mean, we had zero yards.
Speaker 3
I forget what the stat line was. At one point, it was like zero yards to like 250.
Like, it was something outrageous.
Speaker 3
At one point in the first half, the Bucs had 255 total yards of offense while the Eagles had zero. I mean, brother.
I don't think I've ever even heard of that. But it happened so fast.
Speaker 3
Like, we did, we had, this is what it was. We had three three and outs, and before we knew it, like, it was like that.
It was an insane start to the game.
Speaker 3
I mean, the most one-sided start to a game I've seen in a long time. I mean, you want to talk about an insane stat.
I'm like, it's like becoming more like in my head the more I think about it.
Speaker 3 Like, what the fuck?
Speaker 3
You guys, you guys went down 24-0 in the middle of the second quarter and were never able to really get back. But you know how it is.
Like, here's, here's the reality.
Speaker 3
We, on first and second, like, dude, if you're missing A.J. Brown, Devontae Smith, you better be good on first and second down.
And on first and second down, we had drops.
Speaker 3 We had the runs didn't really hit because Todd was bringing corner cat because he didn't, like, they were like, you're bringing corner cat into the run and the safety's coming down.
Speaker 3
Like, it's going to be hard to run the ball into that look. Yeah.
Like, the runs weren't working. We had the passes we did call.
Like, we had a couple drops.
Speaker 3
We ran a screen that didn't, that I think got dropped or didn't work. We got sacked.
You can't be in third and long.
Speaker 3
You can't be in third and long against a team like that without your best two players. It's just going to be dang near impossible.
Tough sledding. They were playing cover one.
Speaker 3
They're doing pick stunts with the running backs guy. Like, good luck passing off that stunt.
I know everybody in Philadelphia is frustrated. I was frustrated watching it.
Speaker 3 I damn sure know the guys out there were frustrated
Speaker 3
and pissed. Yep.
And one of their biggest leaders, Brandon Graham, actually called a team meeting on the sideline. And
Speaker 3
I mean, we don't got to talk about it. Everybody knows BG is the heart of that team.
He's a hard and soul. He's a guy that's been there for fucking years.
Speaker 3 bg is still playing at a very high level hell yeah yeah he shouldn't even be playing the amount of snaps he's playing with where he's at in his career probably he's doing anything he can to get this team to win yeah he has to and he knows that and he's uh
Speaker 3 it's it's early it's it's four weeks into the year i still think they have talent to improve things they have talent hell yeah they have talent i still think they have a talent to improve things Vic's been in this league for a long time.
Speaker 3 He's going to be on these guys to get these things figured out. I i know nick is going to be on both sides of the ball and you know i know everybody's on jalen obviously jalen didn't play well but
Speaker 3 it's it not it doesn't sound like anybody really played that great but that's what i'm saying i don't want to single out him the offense struggled and the offense struggled a lot because of the guys that were out and because they weren't like when they were good on first second down
Speaker 3 they had a couple good drives, but like once they got into those long situations, like it's it's just going to be hard if you don't have the horses.
Speaker 3 Yes, it is about AJ and Devontae being like physical freaks of nature and great receivers. It's also just about like chemistry and timing and having reps with guys.
Speaker 3 Like that's what it's we just got Jahan Dotson. Like he has only been here for like a few weeks.
Speaker 3
Yeah. So like it's just frustrating to watch.
And it's, it's, it's hard to execute in those situations.
Speaker 3 There's no magic formula to fix it other than you just got to go to fucking work and be willing to be your own worst critic yeah to not make a single fucking excuse and you know just go out there and find a way and have a mentality together find a way to have everybody on the same fucking page that you guys are going to get this thing done i think this is going to be a motivating tool for the for the guys in that building because everybody gives a fuck you know there's not there's not too many non-competitors in that building so i expect everybody to to figure it out man so shout out to the birds but uh the lebron stat of the game jalen
Speaker 3
has 43 career regular season rushing touchdowns, tied with Steve Young for the third most rushing touchdowns by a quarterback in NFL history. Only Cam Newton, 75.
Holy shit. And Josh Allen have more.
Speaker 3 Josh Allen already has more. Oh, my God.
Speaker 3
I think I actually remember hearing that he fucking surpassed him last week or two weeks ago. Week five.
Next week, the Eagles are on a bye.
Speaker 3 Then they come back week six at home versus the Browns. How about that? You hate to go into a buy after a game like that, but who knows?
Speaker 3 Maybe it'll be a nice little fresh start for everybody to come back motivated and ready to fucking rock. The Eagles' next four games are against teams with a combined 3-13 record.
Speaker 3
Yeah, don't sleep on that. Absolutely means nothing.
Do not sleep on that.
Speaker 3 Absolutely means nothing. The Bangs
Speaker 3
have been in every game that they've been in. They've been damn near winning them.
The Jags. The Jags have some guys.
They had the rough game against Buffalo that I saw on Monday night.
Speaker 3 I expected them to put up a better performance, and they put a goose egg up on me. But they still got some.
Speaker 3
They've been close. They should have won.
I mean, C.J. got it done at the end of the game, but they were right there against Houston last week.
Speaker 3 The Giants, like, they're not great, but they're in all these games. I don't know if
Speaker 3
we even have the Giants, Cowboys Thursday night. That was the weirdest freaking division game I've ever seen watching.
It was like neither team really was like fighting to win. Did you feel that way?
Speaker 3 Did you watch it? I watched it, but I was more interested in the pregame and halftime talk just just because I love those guys. You love Big Witt and Fitzy and all those guys? Tony,
Speaker 3 you know it. Yeah, Carissa.
Speaker 3
Outside of you guys, they're my favorite. Yeah, they're fantastic.
But I like, it just felt like nobody was like taking the game.
Speaker 3
It felt like both teams are like kind of playing conservative and just hoping the other team messed up. Yeah.
And then like nobody messed up.
Speaker 3
So it was just like this weird game where like nobody played good or bad. I don't know.
It was very, it was very strange. Yeah, it was eerie.
The Browns game.
Speaker 3 Yeah, the Browns are playing bad right now, but they got jim schwartz honestly they were a call here and there away from winning last week against the raiders all righty week four roundup let's talk about all the big headlines from the rest of the league three undefeated teams lost this week there's only two undefeated teams left i think you know one of them the other one that is still undefeated are the minnesota vikings the three undefeated teams that lost this week are the steelers seahawks and bills i did i mean We got to talk about the Bills-Ravens game.
Speaker 3
I did not see the Bills struggling this much. I mean, the Ravens are a tough matchup for them.
I think they're a tough matchup for anybody if freaking Derrick Henry's rushing like that. No man.
Speaker 3
The big man, the king himself, had 199 yards rushing. One rushing touchdown, a receiving touchdown.
Don't see that every day from the big man.
Speaker 3
One of those touchdowns came off of an 87-yard run in which he reached over 21 miles an hour. That's right.
He was speeding in the school zone.
Speaker 3 The Ravens won this game 35-10 against a Buffalo Bills team that looked pretty much unbeatable the week before against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Speaker 3 It was an amazing show of feat by the Ravens, who seem to be finally figuring out this new piece they got at running back with Derrick Henry combined with Lamar Jackson and the rest of the other fast guys they got on the perimeter.
Speaker 3
It feels like they do so much misdirection, but still manage to play with insane speed. Tough football, yeah.
The last undefeated team that took their L was the Steelers.
Speaker 3 Yep, the mighty, mighty Steelers. That defense has been so good, but they struggled early against the Indianapolis Colts, getting out to a
Speaker 3 slow start. The Colts, did they start out 14 or 17-0? I can't remember whether it was a 17-0 lead or is it 14-0?
Speaker 3
I couldn't tell you. All I know is that Joe Flacco came in there at 39 years old and played his tail off again.
He did. Anthony Richardson was playing pretty well, too.
Speaker 3 He got him the first touchdown and then worked them down in the red zone. Flacco finished that one off to make it 14, and then Joe did the rest.
Speaker 3 I will say Fields and the Steelers and company, once they figured it out, were humming, but it was a little bit too little too late. Yeah, still a good football team, though.
Speaker 3
Steelers are a good football team. So are the Colts.
Colts got a really good defense, and it's been that way.
Speaker 3 I don't know what Anthony Richardson's injury status is, but Joe Flacco has proven that he is still an unbelievable quarterback, especially after last season's Browns
Speaker 3 end of the season that he finished off with that playoff run. After the game, Flacco was told by a reporter that Anthony Richardson thought he was cooler than he expected him to be.
Speaker 3 And Flacco's response was, Anthony Richardson's mom is eight days older than I am, so there's no chance in the world he thinks I'm cool.
Speaker 3 And I'm here to say, Flacco, comments like that are exactly why Anthony Richardson thinks you're cool.
Speaker 3
Three rookie quarterbacks led their teams to wins in week four. I don't know that you would call Bo Nick's week an outstanding week from him.
10 to 9 is a wild ass fucking NFL game.
Speaker 3 Jets Jake, we got to bring Jets Jake in. I'm pretty sure he had
Speaker 3
60 yards of offense or something like that. Think about this.
Before that, at halftime, I think he had negative seven yards. Dude.
Speaker 3 On six receptions or some shit like that. I don't think I've ever seen that many receptions and somebody have negative yards.
Speaker 3
I'm not calling Bo Nicks bad or anything like that. I'm just saying that is a wild stat to fucking look at at halftime.
We can go into another wild stat here, and and that is the rookie Phenom.
Speaker 3
That's right. Phenom Jaden Daniels.
This dude is unbelievable, man. He is fun to watch.
The stat in particular that everyone seems to be bringing up is the 82.1%
Speaker 3
completion. That's through four games, ladies and gentlemen.
It's the number one all-time through four games. It might be a LeBron stat, but that is a damn good LeBron stat.
Speaker 3
That is fucking, there's one you can hang your hat on. That's the one right there.
And it's what's been unique is the first game for sure, it was all Dinkin and Duncan, and the ball was out quick.
Speaker 3
And he's still getting that ball out quick. He's got a quick trigger, yeah.
But now you're seeing, and part of it might be defenses have seen that, and it's forced them to defend.
Speaker 3 Reacting to it, yeah. You're seeing him take the shots down the field, you're seeing him make the big throws
Speaker 3 to McLaurin and
Speaker 3
to his receiver's credit. They're making these fucking plays, man.
They are making big-time plays.
Speaker 3
Zach Ertz, baby. Zach Ertz.
They're making fucking plays, baby. I was just talking to my boy.
Listen, they are having fun right now. These last two weeks have been a coming out party for this offense.
Speaker 3
Cliff Kingsbury has him rolling. Jaden Daniels, man, I don't know if he's going to be the next C.J.
Stroud, the next Pat Mahomes, but there's something I like about it. Jayden Daniels, man.
Speaker 3 There's something I like about watching it. Like,
Speaker 3 there's a poise,
Speaker 3 there's a personality,
Speaker 3
there's an excitement. Like, he's confident.
Ah, man, I love watching him play. You use one of my favorite words on Monday Night Countdown.
His moxie. Yeah.
Fucking moxie. He's just.
He call it.
Speaker 3 What does Andy call it? I don't know. Doesn't he call it like vibrato or what is it?
Speaker 3 Oh, my God. Bravado.
Speaker 3
He says it instead of swagger, he uses another term, and it's like an old school term, or he did in Philly. I have no idea.
I've never heard him say any of those words.
Speaker 3
Either way, though, man, the guy, he's got the moxie, man, and he's got the bull by the horns over there. Cliff Kingsbury dialing the shit up.
Against his former team.
Speaker 3 Yeah, you could tell they were taking some good shots.
Speaker 3 I'm happy as hell for my two guys, man. I missed the hell out of these two guys, Nikki Alegretti and Andrew Wiley, two of my favorite teammates of all time.
Speaker 3 And you heard Andrew say he's having one of the most fun years of his life playing for that team. And sometimes
Speaker 3 the excitement, and that's not to take away from anything that we did here in KC, the excitement of everybody not necessarily counting you in, maybe not counting you out, but not counting you in and to be able to day, week in, week out,
Speaker 3 you know, I don't know, answer that test and do it in a way that they're doing it, man. It looks like they're having fucking fun over there in Washington right now, hitting on all cylinders, man.
Speaker 3
And I just couldn't, I couldn't be happier for those two guys. For sure.
And on top of that, Cliff Kingsbury, who I, uh, who I know through old Patty Mahomes, man.
Speaker 3 Yeah, Jaden Daniels is taking the NFL by storm right now, and hopefully we get to keep watching that because it's exciting to watch, especially when a young guy and a team are dominating like that.
Speaker 3 Hell yeah. And the last rookie quarterback to get a win column this week was Kayla Williams, where the Bears
Speaker 3
got their second win of the season. He clearly played his best game so far.
Hopefully, he can keep on getting that thing moving over there in Chicago.
Speaker 3
I think everybody's ready for a Chicago Bears football team to be damn good. No Fun League.
This week we saw another flag for a celebration that really put the No Fun League into perspective.
Speaker 3 Jets wide receiver Al Lazard celebrated a 12-yard reception for first down with finger guns. Pew pew, pew pew pew.
Speaker 3 We don't want this to be like, oh, NFL players shooting guns. And I get that, but
Speaker 3
this is so subtle. Unless you're like doing it at a defender, it shouldn't be a flag.
If you want to find the guy after the game for doing it, all I whatever.
Speaker 3 That's up to the NFL for wanting to protect their league.
Speaker 3 But I think it is absolutely ridiculous that a guy is on the ground shooting pointing fingers for getting a first down saying we're going that way or whatever he might be doing.
Speaker 3 I just think it's too much, man. It's too much and
Speaker 3 it's affecting the game in the wrong way. I get the guy's got to play by the rules and stuff like that, but
Speaker 3
I don't want to get... the NFL on my ass for saying something, but I just think this is too far.
No, you're right. It's my Second Amendment.
Speaker 3 I have the right to bear arms.
Speaker 3 You don't have the right to shoot at people, though, which is why they should make it taunting if you direct it at a player, an official, a fan.
Speaker 3 Like if it's directed at somebody, like if it is done to like do anything to a person,
Speaker 3
I agree. It should be taunting.
But if you're just doing it like, ha,
Speaker 3 I'm shooting guns up in the sky. What the hell are we doing? How is that taunting? If the league doesn't want it, just find them afterwards.
Speaker 3 Don't make it a part of the game where it like affects the team. I think it's a little too much for that.
Speaker 3 They've done this to like overcompensate people pointing it at people and like, or like to be like,
Speaker 3
I don't know. It's stupid.
It's dumb. It's dumb that this cost them 15 yards.
There was nothing about this that was remotely violent. It was playful.
Look at him.
Speaker 3 He's probably making pew-pew-pew sounds as he does it.
Speaker 3 Pew, pew, pew, pew, pew, pew, pew. Who's that? Who is that? Kevin Hart?
Speaker 3 Yeah.
Speaker 3 Earlier Earlier this season, Bengals wide receiver Andre Yoshivas was also fine for a bow and arrow. Yeah, we talked about this one already.
Speaker 3
Listen, Trav, you've been the king of bow and arrows. I don't think it's the same thing.
I think it's the same thing. Well, you have done it before.
You don't do it anymore during the game. No.
Speaker 3 I've seen you do it as a celebration before when it wasn't a penalty. Right.
Speaker 3
I think it was like 2016 or something like that. They made it a flag.
I always thought that was bogus, but I haven't done it in the field of play during the game.
Speaker 3 I've done it like as I come out of the tunnel and stuff. But does it feel like the league is cracking down on celebrations? No, they've kind of already had these rules.
Speaker 3 I mean, the gun, the like weaponry rule has been in place since what, like 2016 or something like that, or 2019, whenever it went into place. It's not a new rule.
Speaker 3 It's just that people are seeing them and seeing how absurd it is.
Speaker 3
Especially when it's not like there was a guy that did like a full-on AK-47 at a guy. Like that one I get.
Let's not let a guy AK-47 another player.
Speaker 3 But like little pew-pews or like a bow and arrow up in the sky that aren't directed at people, I think we can let that slide. Like, what happens if you do a slingshot? Is a slingshot allowed?
Speaker 3
I don't know. I might try it.
I might try that one and see if I get fucking 15-yard penalty. What about
Speaker 3 you can still do a sword? You can come out and do like a little thing.
Speaker 3
Azora. Azoro.
That's allowed, right? Azora. What kind of weapons aren't allowed, NFL? I know.
Speaker 3 Anything can be a weapon.
Speaker 3 I had to appeal a fine for giving uh a teammate of mine a stone cold stunner did the teammate submit a complaint to hr no it was just after a touchdown and the the nfl saw it and said it was a violent act when you but the teammate was in on it yeah i'll tell you what i stone cold stunnered a friend in a bar and he was not in on it and he was upset about it
Speaker 3 I thought it was like a lie.
Speaker 3 You are fucking ridiculous, though. You will break somebody's fucking back stunnering.
Speaker 3
There's no like in between. You have full throttle.
Listen, I'm going straight kick to the nuts, get him hunched over,
Speaker 3
exposed, or breaking this guy's neck. What an electric move.
Shout out to
Speaker 3
the stone-hold stunner himself. Steve Austin, the rattlesnake.
What's another weapon that we could toe the line with here? What's a what? What's a
Speaker 3 I think slingshot, slingshot and sword. Slingshot and sword.
Speaker 3 Could you set up like a
Speaker 3
catapult system and catapult the football into the crowd? No, I don't think that'll hit. I mean, if if it goes into the crowd, it's probably going to be what's another thing.
Numb chucks?
Speaker 3 Numb chucks would be pretty funny. Could you act like you put your head in a guillotine and just get decapitated? Gosh.
Speaker 3
That's crazy. Throwing star? I don't think people would get the gist.
Throw it. Nunchucks.
Could you do little Michelangelo? Michelangelo? You didn't go Bruce Lee? You went Michelangelo.
Speaker 3 I'm all Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, baby.
Speaker 3 Who's this Bruce Lee kid?
Speaker 3
You wore him on your shirt one day. I love Bruce Lee.
I'm just fucking, but I don't. Bruce Lee, I don't think of nunchucks.
I think of Michelangelo when I think of nunchucks.
Speaker 3
When I think of nunchucks, I think of Bruce Lee playing ping pong with nunchucks. He played Bruce.
I don't remember that clip. That's awesome.
I think it's CGI, but I don't know. It probably is.
Speaker 3 Who cares? They had CGI back then. No, that's why it makes it even more like kind of like, really? All right, let's get out of it.
Speaker 3
What if you did a poisoned chalice? You took a drink from the poisoned chalice. I think we're just, I think we're, I think we're done with this.
Ooh, blow dart,
Speaker 3 Aceman turret.
Speaker 3 Spear.
Speaker 3
That was javelin. It wasn't spear.
It was javelin.
Speaker 3 And now for a new addition to round up the week, we got coach quote of the week. I've been waiting to do this ever since I sat down when Nick Sabin had an ESPN event.
Speaker 3
Sometimes coaches just say it best. Trav, hit me.
During the post.
Speaker 3 Post-game press conference, Falcons head coach Raheem Morris was asked about tight end Kyle Pitts not getting any catches in the game this week.
Speaker 3
And Morris responded, it was just about going out there and winning the game. Stats are for losers, man.
I don't get involved in that stuff. Are stats officially for losers?
Speaker 3 I don't think they're for losers. I think when you're getting good stats, you're helping your team win.
Speaker 3
And when you do it at a consistent level and you're scoring touchdowns and you're winning football games, they do matter. But I hear what he's saying, though.
And
Speaker 3 it's a part of my philosophy and not being upset that I'm not getting Buku stats this year,
Speaker 3
is that it's about winning the football game. And he's focused on wins and losses.
And speaking of stats, we got a pretty crazy one
Speaker 3 from that game. Falcons beat the Saints 26-24 on Sunday, and the Saints became the first team to score at least 24 points, allow no offensive touchdowns, and lose in 40 years.
Speaker 3 Allow no defensive touchdowns?
Speaker 3
Allow no offensive touchdowns. Oh, like no pick sixes or anything? No offensive.
What does that mean? They didn't allow the other team to score a touchdown. How'd they get all their points?
Speaker 3
A defensive touchdown, maybe special teams, field goals. Field goals? Yeah.
That's a that is fucking outrageous. Isn't that crazy? Listen, this is my viewpoint on stats.
Talk to me. Stats are numbers.
Speaker 3
What I care about is the football. Where does it go? Does it go in the end zone? Do we get points? Points are also numbers, but points determine games and wins and losses.
Stats are numbers.
Speaker 3
Numbers are nerds. Nerds are losers.
Therefore, stats are losers.
Speaker 3 If you care enough about stats for it to change your day, I think that's when
Speaker 3 you don't have a winning mentality.
Speaker 3
So I get what Coach Morris is saying, but at the same time, if you're putting the ball in the end zone, you're going to get stats. It is what it is.
Yeah, but you're not counting the stats.
Speaker 3
You're just counting the points. You're not counting the stats.
All we care about is visually: does that ball go into that territory right there? We get points.
Speaker 3 Does that ball go through those uprights? When we're on defense, does the ball go that way or does it stay where it's at? That's all I care about.
Speaker 3
I don't care about the numbers. You're right.
But
Speaker 3
numbers are for the analytics people. When you get the ball in the end zone.
The pencil pushers. When you're getting the ball in the end zone zone.
And the zit faces.
Speaker 3
When you're getting the ball in the end zone, you're getting the stats. And the four eyes.
It is what it is. I will say this.
Kyle Pitts is a fucking
Speaker 3 unbelievable athlete. Great football player.
Speaker 3 I think trying to get the ball in his hands is a
Speaker 3 pretty good plan for the Falcons. In all seriousness, they should probably get his stats up because he's a really good weapon to utilize.
Speaker 3
That's what I'm saying. That's what I'm saying.
And he's one of their better, you know,
Speaker 3
he's an unbelievable athlete out there on the field. I think he has a lot of people.
If Kyle Pitts has some catches, they actually do score an offensive touchdown.
Speaker 3
That's another way to look at it. See, there we go.
Before we get out of here, let's wrap up the show with no dumb questions because there's no such thing as dumb questions.
Speaker 3
92%ers, just dumbass people answering them. Hey, no dumb questions is brought to you by the powerful backing of American Express.
Oh my gosh. We are in the American Express ad now.
How about that?
Speaker 3
This is the coolest shit ever. Name your favorite American Express ad.
My favorite American Express ad? Yeah, your favorite one, your favorite commercial I've ever recorded.
Speaker 3 Don't leave home without it, like the old school one.
Speaker 3
Don't steal home without it. Come on.
It's right there, Jason. That's not my favorite one, but that is a good one.
You know what you want to talk about? Yes.
Speaker 3
It's from Major League. Yeah.
And
Speaker 3
it is a great one. No, that one's fucked up.
Gosh, what is why can't I think of his name right now?
Speaker 3
Wesley Snipes. Yeah, but what's his name in the movie? Willie Mays Hayes.
Willie Mays Hayes. Gets like Mays, hit like Hayes.
Speaker 3
It's not a real one, but it is a great one. Oh, it's so great.
Actually, was it real? Did American Express pay money to be in that movie?
Speaker 3
That's what I'm saying. Genius American Express.
Yeah, it's back when
Speaker 3 it might have been back when you didn't have to fucking.
Speaker 3
Yeah. I don't know how that works.
All I know is that.
Speaker 3
That's classic. But either way.
All right. Shout out to American Express.
What is a favorite piece of football sports memorabilia that you guys own?
Speaker 3 I can't tell you exactly what I own because then somebody would rob my house for it.
Speaker 3
But I got some good shit. I got some good shit and I'm very proud of it.
One of the coolest items that I have that I've actually had right here on my desk since Jason got it for me.
Speaker 3
Don't say that one. Don't say that one.
Is a babe Ruth. Baby Ruth.
Grade nine, which is out of 10. It's a pretty goddamn good grade.
Yeah, it's got a baby Ruth.
Speaker 3 uh signature baseball right here from back in the day and it looks like it's got a few other people on it too but i'm not gonna
Speaker 3 Who's Henry Williams?
Speaker 3
Golly. This is pretty fucking good.
Who's that on the bottom? Bob Feller? Who's Bob Feller?
Speaker 3
Legendary Cleveland Indian, baby. Oh, yeah.
I mean, this is the coolest thing that I've ever gotten from Jason for sure.
Speaker 3
See if I can see if I can. Not a lot of competition there.
Yeah, I might go play catch with it or something.
Speaker 3 Play a San Louis
Speaker 3
baseball with it. Pick up baseball.
Yeah. The dog.
Speaker 3 What is it about a baseball? Sign baseball is the best.
Speaker 3
It's our childhood, man. I don't know why.
It's just like ingrained in my head.
Speaker 3 Did you ever get anybody to sign a baseball when you were younger? Like the satisfaction?
Speaker 3
I went and waited in the Cleveland Indians parking lot. I mean, we did that after every fucking game.
And
Speaker 3 one time, I believe I did get a Kenny Lofton autograph. On the third baseline, I was sitting there with,
Speaker 3 I think I'm remembering this right, because the Sailors had third base season tickets, and I got to go with them one time, and they would come right by his section every warm-up.
Speaker 3
And he would like sign some autographs. Shout out to Kenny Lofton, man.
I've been fortunate enough to say what's up to him and
Speaker 3
be cool with him. And he's just been the absolute best knowing that we were 90s Cleveland kids and just thought the fucking world and still do, man.
But Kenny, I still got to, I still got to
Speaker 3
come out and play some golf with with you. Jason will probably join now that he's a golfer.
So we'll have to put a round together.
Speaker 3
I did the exact same thing. I got Kenny Lofton and David Justice at a 1997 MLB All-Star game.
You got them at that game. Yeah, Dad took me down there.
I remember when you got to go down with Dad.
Speaker 3
We had two tickets. You guys had fun.
That was great. Yeah.
Speaker 3 You went the year before.
Speaker 3 Not the all-star game.
Speaker 3 There wasn't like an all-star game every year in Cleveland, Travis. Yeah, you didn't even like baseball, though.
Speaker 3 Dad knew I would fucking appreciate it more, and I would remember it more. And I did.
Speaker 3 And one of the coolest things I got was a picture of Kenny Lofton in an Atlanta Braves jersey and hat because 1997 we traded him right before the deadline to get, I believe, David Justice,
Speaker 3
if I'm not mistaken. I don't remember who we got, but that sounds right, I guess.
Yeah, I forget exactly who we traded for. Oh, no, Marquise Grissom was a part of that one.
Speaker 3 Fun times.
Speaker 3 And shout out to Kenny. My favorite piece of sports memorabilia is actually very timely
Speaker 3
because this person just passed away Monday night while I was doing Monday night countdown, which made it hit extra hard. Well, at least that's when the news broke.
Pete Rose.
Speaker 3
I have a sign baseball by Pete Rose. Charlie Hustle himself, man.
And I don't know. I've just always been a huge Pete fan.
Speaker 3 Obviously, he had his demons, but the way he played the game and carried himself, and I think also like dad just loved him, so that made me love him a little bit more.
Speaker 3 So I love that piece of memorabilia that will probably mean more now that there won't be any more of them made.
Speaker 3 I've had a lot of people run into
Speaker 3 Pete before he passed, and they just had the world.
Speaker 3
They just said great things about him. Either way, R.I.P.
to the big guy, and that is a very, very cool piece of memorabilia that you got. What else do you got?
Speaker 3 You got anything else?
Speaker 3 I also have some boxes of rookie cards. Well, I have some boxes of football cards that are from Tom Brady's rookie year.
Speaker 3
I brought this up on an earlier show that I really want to open, and I still haven't opened them, but I think it would be cool to open those. Maybe that can be, maybe not bonus content.
I don't know.
Speaker 3
I think that'd be fun. Open them and see if there's a Tom Brady rookie card inside.
Dude, I'd fucking, I'd be at the edge of my seat looking at that fucking, you opening those. Can you imagine?
Speaker 3
We open one of them, we pull a freaking Tom Brady rookie card. I want to know who else is in that draft class.
I know that Tom's the big ticket item. Let's look.
Speaker 3 Tom's the big ticket because he was the last big room.
Speaker 3 No, he's the big ticket because
Speaker 3 that's the one that's going for millions of dollars signed and like delivered. What was Tom's rookie year? 01? 2000 draft? Courtney Brown, Cleveland Brown.
Speaker 3 Heyo, 2000 NFL draft. LeVar Arrington, Chris Samuels,
Speaker 3 Peter Ward, Jamal Lewis, Corey Simmons,
Speaker 3
Corey Simon, Corey Simmons. I should have known him from the Philadelphia Eagles.
I feel like there's a better way to go about this. Brian Erlacher.
It's a huge Urlacher.
Speaker 3
I'll go crazy if I get an Erlacher card because I love Brian Urlacher. You were a white linebacker.
That's why. I was trying to be.
I wasn't.
Speaker 3 I mean, the only thing we didn't have in common was that he was way more athletic and I had more hair. Had.
Speaker 3
Had. Yeah, I'm really hoping for that, Tom Brady.
You have to look at some of these names. All right.
Speaker 3
Well, that does it for No Dumb Questions brought to you by the powerful backing of American Express. That's right.

Speaker 3 Peace.
Speaker 3
Now, that's a big red mustache right there. Andy would be proud.
Andy would be proud of this fucking beard. You look great.
How's it feel in there?
Speaker 3 I've always wondered what it feels like in one of those things.
Speaker 4 I don't want to give away exactly what's underneath the helmet or this big-ass mascot face.
Speaker 3 What do you mean, give it away?
Speaker 4 So there's a hockey helmet under here that smells exactly like our hockey equipment.
Speaker 3 Did you throw any disinfectant on that? Because I guarantee you who's ever been wearing that has been sweating their ass off. Are you kidding me?
Speaker 4
Down there in Lubbock, Texas. It's probably been fucking 110 degrees, and this thing's just fucking sweating bullets.
And it smells exactly like that.
