Speaker 1 On today's part in my take, we have the long-awaited return of QB1 Jared Goff. On the show, we went to Lions Camp last day of Grit Week.
We're going to go through Grit Week. We're going to do a recap.

Speaker 1 We have made it to Chicago. We also are going to say goodbye to Billy Football

Speaker 1 forever until he comes back. I will remember him.
So, a very, very sad show. Great show, though.
The vibes are high in the RV. Bill, you remember me?

Speaker 1 We spent every hour together for the last five days. A lot of funny stories, a lot of things to talk about.

Speaker 3 When Cool Creamy Ranch meets tangy, bold buffalo, the hole is greater than the sum of its sauce. Say howdy, partner, to new Buffalo Ranch Sauce only at McDonald's for a limited time.

Speaker 1 Okay, let's go.

Speaker 1 But let them know I to know about unto election.

Speaker 1 I never will take it higher.

Speaker 1 Make all the rest on two election.

Speaker 5 It's part of my take because I can't be a boss for sports.

Speaker 1 Welcome to Pardon My Take. Today is Friday, August 4th, and it's Grit Week presented by Coors Light.

Speaker 1 And football is back.

Speaker 5 The Hall of Fame game. Man, did it deliver? We're recording this at halftime, so we don't actually know what happened in the second half.

Speaker 1 People are going to be like, damn, pardon my take got so soft. They didn't wait till the end of the game.

Speaker 5 Zach Wilson went a blistering three for five, 61 yards.

Speaker 1 Spun his way out of, well, no, spun his way into a sack.

Speaker 5 Well, that was very funny because at the time, Chris Collinsworth was like, and look, that's a nude Zach Wilson out there. Look at him get around, moving around the pocket, feeling comfortable.

Speaker 5 And he gets sacked. Yeah.

Speaker 1 If you can hear that, that's a train, by the way.

Speaker 1 We have made it to Chicago. We are actually outside the new barstool Chicago headquarters that is still under construction, but we thought perfect way to end Grit Week.

Speaker 1 We go all the way from New York. We actually moved Max.
Max moved on Grit Week

Speaker 1 and memes.

Speaker 1 Yeah, he drove his car all the way out here. So we have arrived.
We're at our final destination, and football is back.

Speaker 5 And Hank's doing a TikTok now during the show.

Speaker 5 Great, Hank. Good job.

Speaker 1 So let me just set the stage for this show

Speaker 1 real quick. Real quick.
Well, the thing about Grit Week,

Speaker 5 let's not get negative.

Speaker 1 No, no, no, no, no, no, no, we're not going to get negative. No,

Speaker 1 the thing about

Speaker 5 shut the fuck up.

Speaker 1 Let them finish.

Speaker 5 I will kick your ass.

Speaker 1 We will kick your ass.

Speaker 1 You could use ass kicking.

Speaker 1 Shut up, Jake. Can we chill?

Speaker 5 The thing about Grit Week is we actually have a great time, but on this show, we sometimes have a great time by having a not-so-great time.

Speaker 5 And Hank has been getting the brunt of the punishment for a good reason, though.

Speaker 1 I just want to say

Speaker 1 the best way to describe Grit Week, it is one of my favorite weeks of the year. It's all of us packing into a RV, traveling around, doing interviews, stopping at random locations.

Speaker 1 And essentially, what we do is we stop, we get out, we have fun together, something happens, we get back in the RV, and then we bicker for about an hour until our next destination.

Speaker 1 Then we get out and we repeat over and over. And it is so much fun.

Speaker 1 Because nothing is actually serious. We have fights, but nothing actually lasts.

Speaker 5 The thing is, we don't really get mad at people that we don't like.

Speaker 1 Right. Except for Hank.
Paintball almost ended this podcast. That video will come out later.
But that was a perfect encapsulation of Grit Week. We went to Paintball.

Speaker 1 Tensions got high, multiple different directions. We came back in the RV.
We sat in silence for about 20 minutes. And then we just pretended like none of that happened.

Speaker 5 Yeah. And that's Grit Week.
It was actually a perfect encapsulation of part of my take all in one week.

Speaker 5 We had Billy flipping out during Paintball, which you'll see the video for later, going way over the top, being ridiculous.

Speaker 5 We had Jake being allergic to literally everything that we said or did or saw. And then we had Hank just being kind of a piece of shit.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 That's pretty much a perfect way. Oh, and also Max flopped his titty out forever.
Oh, yeah. That was pretty cool.
So all of that happened. Yeah.
It's titties.

Speaker 5 Yeah, Janet Max.

Speaker 1 We'll get to that later. We'll get to that later.
But yeah, it's been a great week. It's been a great week, a long week.
We did some great interviews that are come out in the next couple weeks.

Speaker 1 But yeah, football is back.

Speaker 5 It's very back. Very back.
And a stat that we'll have to keep our eye on this upcoming season.

Speaker 5 Jim Schwartz from the Browns said that their defense may not lead the league in points against, but they will lead it in swag. Okay.

Speaker 5 So we're going to have to keep a running tally on whether or not the Browns are actually leading the league in swag.

Speaker 1 Well, at the end of the year, don't they do a swag award?

Speaker 5 They do the swag of the year.

Speaker 1 Yeah, we should actually, that's a new takeie.

Speaker 5 Swag of the year.

Speaker 1 Swag of the year is definitely a new takeie.

Speaker 1 Yeah, it was good. It's just good to see the NBC crew, Mike Florio looking short as always.

Speaker 1 Chris Sims doing whatever he's doing. Button.

Speaker 5 I might go button.

Speaker 1 Button, button up. Aaron Rodgers looking as happy as I've ever seen him in his entire life.
I'm so happy he's found a new home.

Speaker 5 The pregame rundown of what Aaron Rodgers has been doing since his time in New York was hilarious. I don't know if you heard it, but they were like, he's been going to Broadway shows every week.
Yeah.

Speaker 5 Taking

Speaker 5 Zach Wilson to Book of Mormon laughs a little bit too hard. Yeah.
And Zach's like, I want to kill this fucking guy.

Speaker 1 Aaron Rodgers, it was Zach Wilson's birthday today. Oh, so two goats.
Tom Brady and Zach Wilson today. Happy birthday, Tom.
Congrats on their careers are mirrored image.

Speaker 1 I said a couple weeks ago I need to find a Champions League team. You say football team?

Speaker 1 Soccer? Soccer team? Hank? Soccer team.

Speaker 5 Soccer. Football team.
So what team is it, Hank?

Speaker 1 Someone with a B. Birmingham City.
Birmingham City, yeah. Birmingham.
Yeah, that's how they say it.

Speaker 1 But I was going to say, we talked about Mike Florio being short. We did a meet and greet last night.
Shout out to all the AWOs that came out.

Speaker 1 I would say like 75 to 80% of them kept saying how not short you were in real life. So that's got to be good.

Speaker 1 I thought you were way shorter. That's the gaslight.
Tom would be like, oh my That takes place on this podcast.

Speaker 5 Everyone thinks that I'm four foot zero.

Speaker 1 By the way, did you see the Madison Mallards who Doug's and Frank, I think, were out there throwing first pitches because they're doing their annual summer throw first pitch at every game. They have a

Speaker 1 free ticket for any guy under 5'5 and any girl over 6 feet. I love that.
It's a great promo.

Speaker 5 Yeah, we need representation matters for the short kings out there. There was a twist

Speaker 5 amongst the part of my take guys this week at the meet and greet. I don't know if Big Kat and Hank, you guys want to talk about it?

Speaker 1 Because Big Kat hit me in the nuts.

Speaker 5 Yeah, we've been an anti-liar podcast for a long time.

Speaker 1 My hands slipped.

Speaker 5 My hands slipped. But I'm afraid that that is a slippery stand.

Speaker 1 Hank said he's not going to do it. I'm not going to do it to you, Peter.
Yeah, you and I had a long standing conversation. Hank has been terrorizing me for three days straight.

Speaker 1 And if I committed one of these offenses that he did to me, he would have me put in the gulag and have my fucking

Speaker 1 neck.

Speaker 1 You did commit the offense by following me around all week, doing my job. Personal TikTok.
I'm a content creator. Yeah, your personal TikTok spoiling Grit Week.
Go watch Hank's Grit Week recaps.

Speaker 1 I bought you another coffee after I hit it out of your hand. That was a very funny way to start.
Can't buy me another nut, though.

Speaker 4 I might have to do a preemptive strike on the nut taps because you just don't know.

Speaker 1 Well,

Speaker 1 you're not on the show anymore. You're not on the show anymore.

Speaker 6 I know, but I'm still here.

Speaker 4 I'm going to have to go out with Bang.

Speaker 1 Oh, like North Korea.

Speaker 1 Kim Jong-un.

Speaker 5 That would be sick if Billy just came in like a mass nut tapper and just hit everybody in their sack on the way out.

Speaker 4 Hey, can't get me back there.

Speaker 1 All right, what else we got going on in the sports world? I saw

Speaker 1 Ty Dunn has released, he released another article about the Jaguars. I like that we're like, what, two years now post-Urban Meyer, and we still get Urban Meyer.
And I'll click every time.

Speaker 1 Every single time. He does a great job, by the way, Ty Dunn.
I saw Sports Associate ripped him off, which was not right because he's an independent journalist.

Speaker 1 I actually got to find his website and give it a plug.

Speaker 1 But the Urban Meyer story was basically one of the players on the team saying on the defense being like, we got to pick it up because we have a rookie head coach and a rookie quarterback, Trevor Lawrence and Urban Meyer.

Speaker 1 Urban Meyer caught wind of it and called him and was like, I'm going to cut you. Why'd you call me a rookie head coach? And the player basically had to apologize and pretend none of that happened.

Speaker 5 You could write anything about Urban Meyer's tenure on the Jaguars, and I would believe it. Yeah, it's so awesome.
But these stories are going to keep coming out. It's the best.
And I'm so glad.

Speaker 5 I love the post-mortems on just a disastrous hire of a head coach. Yes.

Speaker 1 Urban Meyer.

Speaker 5 Like, that doesn't surprise me about Urban Meyer for him to call up a player and be like, you need to apologize for saying factually, something factually accurate about me, you piece of shit.

Speaker 1 I hope we just never run out. Like, every year, it should just be, it's basically a time capsule.

Speaker 1 We should just open it up every year and be like, what's the new Urban Meyer anecdote from his less than one year in Jacksonville?

Speaker 5 Yeah, what was the other one that came out? Oh, he was kicking his kicker.

Speaker 1 Yeah, he kicked his kicker.

Speaker 5 He kicked Josh Lambo around. He kicked his kicker.

Speaker 1 By the way, the website's golongtd.com. So he is support independent journalists.
We also had an XI.

Speaker 5 We had an update in the Jim Ursay files.

Speaker 1 Oh, yeah. Chronicles of Mr.

Speaker 5 Ursay. So there's a whale, an orca.
Excuse me. There's an orca that's been in captivity.

Speaker 1 What's her name?

Speaker 5 Her name is Lolita.

Speaker 1 Explorer. Lolita.

Speaker 4 A.K.A. Also known as Tokitia.

Speaker 5 Tokitai. Tokitai.
Tokitai. I call it by the Inuit Tokatai.
Tokatai has been trapped in like a Miami,

Speaker 5 I don't know if it's like a sea world type environment, some sort of like aquatic zoo.

Speaker 5 And Jim Ursay is putting up $20 million to float this orca, excuse me, fly this orca across the country and the uh yeah, and release it back into the Puget Sound where its pod lives to this day.

Speaker 1 Yeah, so no way they're flying

Speaker 1 in a cargo plane, yeah, dude. They're actually taking I thought you were a whale guy,

Speaker 5 it's an orca, not a whale.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I don't like orcas as much, uh,

Speaker 1 they hunt whales, well, they're not whales technically, so that's kind of valid. Um,

Speaker 1 yeah, how the fuck,

Speaker 1 how the fuck,

Speaker 1 have you seen Gree Willie?

Speaker 5 So there was an artist rendition.

Speaker 1 How do you put

Speaker 1 water in the cargo plane? Yeah.

Speaker 5 There was an artist rendition. I want you to look at this because it's a very funny picture.

Speaker 1 This is Gaslight City. They just fill up the cargo plane and it leaks out a little because it's not very

Speaker 1 watertight.

Speaker 1 What if it moves? What do you mean?

Speaker 4 They're also flying her?

Speaker 1 They're flying a friend? Two first-class tickets?

Speaker 5 There's the artist's rendition of it. It's just a plane strapped

Speaker 5 strapped to an order gun.

Speaker 1 You guys can admit that.

Speaker 5 No, they're actually flying it.

Speaker 4 She's not going.

Speaker 1 Aren't all the oceans connected?

Speaker 5 Yeah. Just send it through the Panama Canal.

Speaker 1 Why don't they just

Speaker 1 throw it out there? Why don't they just throw some rope around it and tow it? Just let it figure it out. It's a long tow.

Speaker 4 They're actually sending her back to captivity because it's a 15-acre netted area in that sound.

Speaker 1 But that's better than

Speaker 5 I just love Jim Ursa.

Speaker 5 I'm getting so much shit this week. My name's being dragged through the mud about the Jonathan Taylor situation.
I need some positive press. Oh, I know what I'll do.

Speaker 5 I'll spend $20 to fly a whale across the United States.

Speaker 1 Yes. I mean, obviously, it's his money.
He can do whatever the fuck he wants, and there's a salary cap, but it is funny. Now,

Speaker 1 that orca could get, that orca probably could get, like, a goal line yard better than Jonathan Taylor. Probably, yeah.

Speaker 5 And by the way, memes, I need you to make a Photoshop of a banner hanging from the Colts, the roof of Lucas Oil saying flew a whale across the United States.

Speaker 1 Hank still doesn't believe that this whale is getting flown.

Speaker 4 Technically, not a whale.

Speaker 1 Technically, not a whale. Okay.
An orca. A killer orca.

Speaker 1 There's no way.

Speaker 5 Well, just like a really big

Speaker 5 thing.

Speaker 1 Sounds like you're. Are you saying because the airlines are bad right now? The water? Oh.

Speaker 5 The air's not water.

Speaker 1 But how, like,

Speaker 1 so there's no water in the cargo?

Speaker 5 So Jim Ursai is buying a giant tank, putting it on a plane, filling it up with water, then dropping the orca into the water and then flying it to Seattle.

Speaker 1 No. There's a chance to get it.
When he missed coffee cookies, he's good.

Speaker 1 Zero percent.

Speaker 5 A stroop waffle?

Speaker 1 Yeah. Bloody marriage.
Sorry, yeah. Better not spill any popcorn.

Speaker 1 Are you okay? I can't.

Speaker 1 I know. You guys are just fucking with me, but.

Speaker 5 No, we're not. We're not telling you the truth.
No, it's true.

Speaker 1 Okay, sure. Okay.
All right. All right.
That's fine.

Speaker 1 All right. Before we talk a little more stuff,

Speaker 1 I didn't intro, by the way, we're going to do the Mount Rush more of things you should only do once.

Speaker 1 What? Things that are fun. Fun once.
Only fun once. Sorry.
Thank you, Hank.

Speaker 5 Hey, it's PFT here, reminding you that Boarshead makes game day entertaining elevated and effortless.

Speaker 5 Whether you order catering platters ahead from your local Boarshead retailer, or you create your own spread at home with Boarshead premium deli meats and cheeses, you are sure to impress your guests.

Speaker 5 My favorites like oven gold turkey or blazing buffalo-style chicken, paired with their classic Vermont cheddar or creamy monster cheese, are sure to score big and help me elevate my entertainment every time, whether it's for a tailgate or a home gating celebration.

Speaker 5 Seriously, guys, it's a game-changing flavor for every gathering. Boarshead, committed to craft since 1905.

Speaker 1 What were you guys shaking your head? Don't shake your fucking head.

Speaker 5 Don't shake your head. I was showing Hank the article about how they're planning on transporting this orca.
Yeah.

Speaker 5 And they're putting it into a cargo truck and then driving that truck to the airport, putting it on a cargo plane, flying it across the country, putting it onto yet another truck, then driving it to the car.

Speaker 1 I I mean, Hank, it costs $20 million. If this happens,

Speaker 1 I will do one of those websites where you like buy a whale.

Speaker 1 I will become a broker. You're going to buy a whale? Yeah.

Speaker 4 If Lizzo can get to Amsterdam and back,

Speaker 1 Billy had seen the clip on his last show.

Speaker 1 Nice, Billy.

Speaker 5 I would feed an orca banana out of my ass.

Speaker 1 Yeah, definitely.

Speaker 1 Other things we had. Oh, Nate Diaz and Jake Paul, the discovery of the Mets? Yeah.

Speaker 1 How's the rehab going?

Speaker 1 They're fighting this weekend.

Speaker 1 I'm going to buy it.

Speaker 5 Yeah, I mean, you kind of have to because it's going to be a shit show. Exactly.
The fight in the, was that the weigh-in or just the face-off? I think it was just a face-off.

Speaker 1 It was a face-off.

Speaker 5 It was something. It was an actual fight.
There were punches thrown, which is good to see.

Speaker 5 I always bet on the boxer, if it's a boxer versus an MMA guy in a boxing match. But is Jake Paul really a boxer? He's not like a professional, professional boxer.
So I don't know.

Speaker 5 Nate Diaz, it's hard to bet against him.

Speaker 1 It is hard to bet against him. I'm trying to find the guy.
I was laughing because some guy said,

Speaker 1 there's going to be a whole army of California that's going to come and back up Nate Diaz. You're not ready for this war.

Speaker 1 And he's like, I unfortunately can only do this behind my keyboard, but be ready.

Speaker 1 So shout out that guy. Okay, yeah.
He just let it be known.

Speaker 4 Fun fact, Logan Paul was supposed to get this fight with Nate, and Jake cucked him for it. So there was an interview with Hawani that

Speaker 4 Logan did where he was like, yeah, I was about to get this fight. The guy backed out.
I don't know what other fight he could have gotten that wasn't as sweet as this fight.

Speaker 4 We'd made, like, we sweetened the pot.

Speaker 5 Turns out it was his brother, Jake.

Speaker 8 Jake talked his brother out of this fight.

Speaker 1 Jake and Logan should fight.

Speaker 5 Yeah, they should.

Speaker 4 Hopefully this drums something up because that would actually be great to see.

Speaker 5 Remember when you made IwannaFightjakePaul.com? Yeah. That was a great moment.

Speaker 4 I mean, he's been training for all these years. I've been podcasting.

Speaker 1 Now's your time to shit.

Speaker 5 There was a great moment last night when Billy was saying he could jump over a dinner table.

Speaker 5 Where he referred to himself two years ago as being a freak of nature. And two years ago, he could have done it.

Speaker 4 Two years ago you were doing this podcast no well i got my time mixed up my junior year of college i was a freak i was squatting 450 like

Speaker 4 450 i broad jump i broad jumped 12 no i broad jumped 11 something okay and i was in the best shape of my life we've gone a ways from there but i can still fucking jump okay all right uh breaking moves by the way

Speaker 1 maybe not breaking moves feel like this has just been trickling out for the last two days

Speaker 1 but it looks like Arizona is officially going to go to the Big 12. Okay.

Speaker 5 Not surprising. Not surprising.
And Washington, they called a meeting of their Board of Regents or whatever. Yes.
It sounds like they're going to go.

Speaker 1 Well, no, yeah, Washington and Oregon are being looked at by the Big Ten.

Speaker 1 The Big Ten doesn't have to do anything right now. They also made it very clear they're not going to be predatory in any of this.

Speaker 5 No, of course not.

Speaker 1 Yeah, so we're just going to do what's best for the Big Ten. But yeah, it looks like Arizona's going to go to the Big 12.

Speaker 1 And then I don't know what's going to happen for the rest of the Pac-12.

Speaker 5 It's just, like we said, it's going to end up being two leagues pretty soon. Yeah.
Probably going to be maybe a Big Ten.

Speaker 5 How many teams are in the Big Ten now?

Speaker 1 Well, it should be the Big Ten West and the Big Ten East. And then the title game should be at the Rose Bowl.
What are the 16 teams? On January 1st. In the Big Ten?

Speaker 1 There's 14, going to be 16.

Speaker 1 So how many teams is too many teams? All of them. Put all of them in.
Well, I think you've got to get to 20 because then you can have two Big Tens.

Speaker 1 Right?

Speaker 5 That makes sense. Yeah, the Legends and Leaders.

Speaker 1 Do you know who actually coming out looking pretty good in all of this conference realignment? I never thought I'd say this. Notre Dame.
Yep.

Speaker 5 Notre Dame. Yeah, they said that they're committed to being stay with their tradition.
They're committed to being independent. Why would you?

Speaker 1 You don't need to make all the money. Yeah.

Speaker 5 Just beat up on whatever cupcake schools you want to schedule. Yeah.

Speaker 1 They make all the money and they don't have to worry about it. Last thing I had before we get to Jared Goff.

Speaker 1 Do Jake and Billy want to talk about the Yankees and what's going on with their season? Yeah. So Domingo Hermann.
Well, that's my favorite picture.

Speaker 1 I said on the show, he's my least favorite. And look at that.
Right again. So Raldo's chapman is not your least favorite.
Oh, God. What happened, Jake?

Speaker 1 What happened?

Speaker 1 I didn't look into the details, but he did another bad thing off the field. He's going to rehab.
Is he still on the team?

Speaker 1 He's not for the rest of this year.

Speaker 4 Yeah.

Speaker 1 But the bigger news was Anthony Rizzo is going on the IL for a concussion that he suffered. Can anyone guess when he suffered it? In May against the Padres.
Yes, in May 28th, he suffered a concussion.

Speaker 5 That sounds like a retroactive We Don't Want to Get Sued move.

Speaker 1 Yeah, so here are his stats. In the 53 games before this concussion, he had 11 home runs, was batting 304.

Speaker 1 In the 46 games since this concussion, so 46 games he played since the concussion, he had one home run and was batting 172.

Speaker 5 It's just interesting of the timing where it's after they're pretty much done for the season. Yeah.
Like no hope of winning anything. So they're like, okay, yeah, now we'll treat your head injury.

Speaker 1 It's pretty, pretty much bullshit. They did my guy Rizzo wrong.

Speaker 1 I'm taking away Cashman's pinstripes for that.

Speaker 5 And putting them on Herman in jail. Row?

Speaker 1 Around Rizzo's head. Yes.
Ew. What? No.
Ew.

Speaker 1 What was that? People in jail wear pinstripes.

Speaker 5 Yeah, that's what I'm talking about, Hank. Or Jake.
No, you don't wear your hair.

Speaker 4 They're like the hamburger.

Speaker 1 They wear orange.

Speaker 5 They're horizontal pinstripes.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 1 You ever seen the hamburger? They're gray, yeah. That's what I said.
Yeah.

Speaker 4 No, but concussions like that are kind of no joke. Rizzo trying to play through it, hats off to him.

Speaker 5 Oh, Billy, you've changed. You have changed.
You used to be a freak of nature, and now I'll listen to you.

Speaker 4 Yeah, well, I got hit in the head too many times.

Speaker 1 You?

Speaker 5 No, I mean, you're right. You're right.
Like, a concussion that you suffer at any level of sport is like a pretty, it should be a big deal.

Speaker 1 No, this is very bad.

Speaker 1 It's weird that they've held on to this for so long.

Speaker 4 But the thing is, with something like that, he definitely would never have checked himself out. That's just warrior mentality.

Speaker 1 But that's why you need a medical staff.

Speaker 4 Right.

Speaker 1 That's why I'm blaming the Yankees, not Rizzo.

Speaker 4 I don't blame, I blame the situation because Rizzo is definitely, I can still do it. I can still do it.

Speaker 1 Mike but like he needed this

Speaker 1 it's just a drunk podcast you'd have to think that if if the bases were a little bit bigger who's on first

Speaker 5 they would have been able to dive into the base safely not hit the first baseman something to think about that's a fact

Speaker 4 football is different than baseball though like a comps guy can still play football hitting a fastball like that yeah they don't play football with baseballs right that's one difference

Speaker 1 well no remember was josh norman had a bat yeah before the game.

Speaker 1 Went up to Steve Smith, right?

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 4 Also, baseball players do.

Speaker 1 No, Odell. Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 4 The concussion conditioning. Whereas if they get hit once, they don't know how to deal with it.
Whereas football players, they know what it's like just being calm.

Speaker 5 When you get enough concussions, then it's actually better for you to get another concussion. Then it's your baseline.
That's what you're saying.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 1 Okay. That makes sense.

Speaker 1 Anything else in the sports world before we get to Jared Goff? Which is a great interview.

Speaker 5 Great to have him back. I'm going to miss Billy.

Speaker 1 I'm going to miss Billy. We'll get to that.

Speaker 1 We'll do do that at the end. We're going to do a farewell to Billy.
We got a big

Speaker 1 hurt or injured that we will recap all of Grit Week after we do the Mount Rushmore.

Speaker 1 Oh, touchdown for the Browns.

Speaker 1 We need, what, four more points? Four more points. Four more points.
Let's go. The Jets losing the movement.
I think they're shooting for the Jets, though, in the Hall of Fame game.

Speaker 4 They're losing, aren't they?

Speaker 1 In the over.

Speaker 1 No, they're not. They're down three.
Or the Browns are now down three. Two.

Speaker 11 I think it's along those lines. Yeah, it's the perseverance, it's getting through adversity, it's

Speaker 11 being able to come out the other side of something

Speaker 11 maybe better or just making it through a hard time.

Speaker 5 As a soft Cali boy, have you been able to find some grit up here in Detroit?

Speaker 11 Have you gotten grittier since you've got I've gotten way grittier since I got to the Midwest out here in Detroit?

Speaker 1 Yeah, there's a little hotter, a little more humid.

Speaker 11 You got to grind a little bit more. And yeah, it's been fun.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 So we mentioned this to you off air, but there is an account on Twitter that replies to PFT and I every single day. It's called Detroit Lions Bot.

Speaker 1 Shout out that guy with a tracker of days since you've last been on the show for a full interview. I think we're at like over a thousand days.
He's very upset, but here we are. So it's over.

Speaker 1 Shout out Detroit Lions bot.

Speaker 1 Put it back to zero. Yeah.

Speaker 1 What does he go? I don't know what his life looks like after this. He has no purpose.

Speaker 5 He's like the dog that caught the car.

Speaker 1 I'll tell you what, if he goes back to day one, like on Saturday, I'm going to be pissed. No, we respect that.
We respect that. He's a dedication.
He should. That would be good.

Speaker 5 Anybody can keep track of a stat if it's been a long time, but not everybody has the grit to take it and do it one day. There you go.
It's been one day since I've gotten to listen. There you go.

Speaker 1 So it has been a long time. Last time we were at your house in L.A.
That's right.

Speaker 1 Game of Thrones, Spinale.

Speaker 1 That's right. A lot has changed.

Speaker 1 So let's just start with the change. I know that, like,

Speaker 1 I'll say this.

Speaker 1 You handled the trade and everything like a true professional. I feel like we never heard, you know, you could have been upset.

Speaker 1 You could have been mad, but it felt like you were able to stay above the fray.

Speaker 1 What, like, when you had that happen to you, you get traded to Detroit from a team that's competing for Super Bowls to a team that's rebuilding, now has been rebuilt. What was going through your head?

Speaker 11 Yeah, it was certainly hard. And I think I've had some time to reflect on it now, being a little bit further away from it.

Speaker 11 It was harder maybe than I thought it was in the moment. You know, you're just kind of naive to it and you're just, you know, putting your head down every day and going to work.

Speaker 11 But looking back, there were some dark times in that 2021 year.

Speaker 11 both personally and on the field, just getting through that. And glad to say that you're kind of coming out the other side now and have some things to look forward to.

Speaker 5 Did Blake Griffin reach out to you with some words of advice how to handle that transition?

Speaker 1 Blake did. I think you put me on text with Blake.

Speaker 11 And I think he was actually trying to work his way out of Detroit when

Speaker 11 I was coming in here.

Speaker 11 So he was like, you're going to love it, but I'm kind of leaving soon.

Speaker 11 But yeah, no, he was a good resource.

Speaker 1 And yeah, it was funny. So the mental side of it, because I think that

Speaker 1 we don't really, we always know players go through it, but we never really dive into it.

Speaker 11 Like, was there a moment where you had, like oh shit like is this gonna work out for me am i gonna be still like you know a starting quarterback i never lost confidence in myself no i i i think i always remained true to myself and knew who i was and what i can do and um having a crew here like dan and brad and now ben johnson and and these coaches and players that believed in me um only made it that much easier to do it for myself but no yeah certainly you can get you can get in some tough times but i never i never lost confidence in what i can do you love ben johnson right love ben johnson ben johnson great offensive coordinator.

Speaker 5 He could have probably left last year.

Speaker 1 He got some interviews.

Speaker 11 I think he could have. He's a big coach.

Speaker 5 So he's back. I saw something the other day that you texted with him this offseason.
You just said four words to him in one text. St.
Brown, huge year. Yeah.
Is that a fact?

Speaker 11 Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 11 I don't know if it was the exact same words, but it was something along those lines. I was very succinct.
I just gotten finished on. I just got done throwing with St.
Brown out in L.A.

Speaker 11 and seeing his progression this offseason. I'm like, that kid's going to have a big year.

Speaker 5 What is it about his offense

Speaker 5 you love?

Speaker 11 A lot of things. I think he allows, you know, for me personally, to kind of be creative.
And I get a lot of decision-making capabilities, line of scrimmage.

Speaker 11 He puts a lot of my hands, a lot on my plate, and allows me to play quarterback and really, you know, direct our offense.

Speaker 5 So you were like, it's fourth down. I want to throw the ball to Panay Sewell?

Speaker 11 That was his call.

Speaker 1 That was a great call. Yeah, I'll take credit for the throw, but

Speaker 11 that was a little nugget he thought about on Monday of that week. I remember we were talking about it, how he was just like, I want to get Panay the ball somehow.
How can we get Panay the ball?

Speaker 11 And we had a little package of three plays there.

Speaker 11 And as soon as we ran the personnel on the field for probably the first down play or the second down play, I'm like, okay, this is going to end with that play to Panay.

Speaker 11 It was a little setup there, and it was a good one.

Speaker 1 So how pumped was Panay in the huddle? Was he like

Speaker 1 you can't do you?

Speaker 1 Imagine like he's such a big guy. If the defense is watching, they're like, look at him jumping up and down and so excited.
He might be getting the ball. Is he just like, this is my moment.

Speaker 11 Yeah. And they, it was Minnesota.
So they kept calling timeout kind of in between each play because they were trying to stop the clock and get the ball back.

Speaker 11 And we knew the whole time we're just going to go for it on fourth with this play. It was either third or fourth.
I can't remember.

Speaker 11 And in between every timeout, really the one before we threw it to Panay, Ben's telling me, hey, tell Panay, calm down.

Speaker 11 You know, make sure, you know, make sure, just tell him to secure the catch and get the first down. Don't go out of bounds.
So I'm giving him all this information. Hey, just catch the ball.

Speaker 11 And then our left guard, Jonah Jackson, looks at me. He goes, yo, chill out.
He's good.

Speaker 1 I'm like, all right, all right.

Speaker 1 You got it.

Speaker 5 Yeah, I got to imagine it's fun playing in an offense like that, where you know, okay, we're going to break everything out. We're going to go for the kill.
We're going to win.

Speaker 5 We're playing to win the game. We're not playing to like give you the ball back and then stop on defense.

Speaker 1 Right.

Speaker 11 He's very aggressive. Obviously, Dan's very aggressive.
We kind of take on that personality as an offense.

Speaker 11 And being able to do creative things that are actually sound and like good football is a lot of fun.

Speaker 1 Thank you for ending Aaron Rodgers Packers' career. I appreciate that.

Speaker 5 I counted that as a playoff win for you.

Speaker 1 Yep, me too. All right, cool.
Yeah. Yeah.
Thank you.

Speaker 11 I don't know if it counts officially, but yeah.

Speaker 1 A little cow-on-cow crime. There you go.
Just talk to him after. You're like,

Speaker 1 this one's for Big Cat.

Speaker 11 I must have forgotten to say that.

Speaker 11 Yeah, briefly, just, you know, see you later. Good game.
And that was it.

Speaker 1 Yeah. But that was nice.

Speaker 11 Yeah, that was a fun one. That was a good one to finish on.

Speaker 11 It was a lot of, you know, emotions kind of pre-game of like, are we going to have a chance to make the playoffs? Are we not?

Speaker 11 And then I think, you know, when we found out we weren't, you know, we knew we would get turned on by either one, right? If we have a chance, okay, that's going to light a fire.

Speaker 11 If we don't, then okay, we're going to keep them out. So it was a good little fire under us to keep them out.
And it was a fun finish. Yeah.

Speaker 1 I also want to say congratulations. I feel like beating the bridge quarterback tag is like, that's a big, because, you know, when you got drafted, yeah, well, everyone's like, oh, bridge quarterback.

Speaker 1 And then you played, you've been playing so well that it's like, no, wait, Jared is the guy right now. Like, what are we talking about? So sure, yeah, I appreciate it.

Speaker 1 Yeah, because it's got to be a weird feeling to be put in a situation, have obviously the the Lions internally is a different story, but the media is saying, like, oh, he's just a bridge quarterback.

Speaker 1 And then your play has, like, there's nothing better when athletes are able to prove it on the field. Like, no, I'm playing my balls off you.

Speaker 11 Sure, sure. I think there's a lot of members of our media that

Speaker 11 have an easy time writing bad things.

Speaker 11 And they have for quite some time. And when we were one and six, they were landing on pretty thick.

Speaker 11 And then we kind of flipped the script and it was almost like they ran out of things to write because they weren't used to putting

Speaker 11 positive news out there, I guess. I don't know how else to frame it.
And yeah, maybe took a little gas out of their tank. And it's been fun.

Speaker 5 Yeah, for the record, I saw a tier list of quarterbacks that came out last week.

Speaker 5 And under the guy, the top tier, it was like Mahomes, Joe Burrow, Josh Allen, Jared Goff was right at the top of the table.

Speaker 1 I saw that list as well. Great.

Speaker 5 Did you see that list? I didn't.

Speaker 1 It was a great list. It was a really big podcast.

Speaker 5 I think we made it.

Speaker 1 Oh, perfect. But it's a good list.

Speaker 1 It's a great list. As an impartial observer of my own list,

Speaker 1 total bias aside.

Speaker 1 I'd love, but I'll take four from you guys. I appreciate it.
Well, we want you to be hungry. There you go.
Yeah. We can't just give you everything.
All right. Yeah, I appreciate it.

Speaker 5 Do you have any immature D's nuts jokes to use on us?

Speaker 11 I don't, but I thought Josh's was incredible.

Speaker 1 I thought it was disgusting.

Speaker 5 There are kids in Buffalo. Listen, Jared, there are kids in Buffalo.
They look up to him. He's a God, right? It's like Josh Allen is Buffalo.
There are kids that listen to that podcast.

Speaker 5 And they probably went into school and they told their teacher, oh, 40s nuts in the back of your throat.

Speaker 5 And then they probably got suspended. They're probably not going to graduate.
They're probably going to end up destitute on the streets.

Speaker 1 Battery.

Speaker 5 It's disgusting. He ruined the future of Buffalo.

Speaker 11 I thought the setup was so good. Yeah.

Speaker 1 It was cloth line and sinker. It wasn't that part of my take for a lot of young, impressionable youth out there.
We are their heroes. And they just saw their heroes,

Speaker 1 like I said, get stuffed by the rim on a dunk. That's right.
And I was like, wait, my legs don't work anymore. Are we getting old?

Speaker 1 That was a tough moment.

Speaker 11 I don't have one for you. I thought about coming up with one and I'm like, I'm going to let him, I'm going let him have that win.
And

Speaker 11 I don't want to try to overdo that.

Speaker 1 It hurt.

Speaker 5 It hurt very deeply.

Speaker 5 Are you still in touch with Blake?

Speaker 1 Oh, yeah.

Speaker 11 How are you guys? I talked to him recently. I talked to him when he won Blake of the Year.
Yeah. Yeah.
I texted him, just said, hey, congrats.

Speaker 11 And just see Blake of the Year in parentheses, making sure he knew why I was saying congrats.

Speaker 11 Yeah, he's doing good. He's doing good, living a great life.

Speaker 5 The all-time story of after the Super Bowl where you and Blake were in the kitchen trying to figure out how to make pizza rolls in the oven.

Speaker 1 Oh, boy.

Speaker 1 We walked in the kitchen

Speaker 11 in Houston.

Speaker 5 We walked into the into the kitchen. It was probably like 3 a.m.
And Jared and Blake are trying to figure out how to make pizza rolls in the oven.

Speaker 5 There's just all the smoke in the world coming out of the oven. Like Jared and Blake are going to burn down our house in Super Bowl week.

Speaker 11 That was such a fun, like crazy... collusion night like of just things.

Speaker 11 I remember Loud Sean is like the legend I remember from that night of him running around running around his underwear like challenging my buddy who played Division I basketball.

Speaker 11 He's like play me one-on-one in his in his underwear at like two in the morning. Blake's doing the piece of rolls.
I remember Glenny was asleep somehow.

Speaker 1 Yeah, we were watching him sleep. Yeah, we were watching him sleep.
He was asleep through it all.

Speaker 11 So peaceful.

Speaker 11 Yeah, people are jumping in and out of the pool. I think Hank jumped in the pool.

Speaker 1 It was like, oh, was that a weird dream?

Speaker 11 Yeah. You just go home, go to bed, and it never happened.

Speaker 1 And then the next morning, you call me, you're like, we have a flight and we can't find Blake. Where is he? And I was like, dude, what do you mean, where is he?

Speaker 1 You're the one with him. That's right.

Speaker 11 I probably left a little earlier than he did.

Speaker 1 And

Speaker 1 we were unable to leave without him because he was a part of our crew. Yes.
I just remember getting that call and just being like, Jared, you're

Speaker 1 the number one pick starting quarterback in the NFL. Like, you find your friend.
I don't know where he went.

Speaker 11 Yeah, he's an all-timer and a guy I miss, certainly.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 5 Microchip your Blakes. You said what?

Speaker 5 You have to microchip your Blakes. Yeah.
Right.

Speaker 11 He's a tough guy to get a hold of sometimes.

Speaker 1 Oh, he is. Yeah.

Speaker 1 He's out there.

Speaker 11 He's either golfing or hanging with his kids, I'm sure. But, you know, I love that dude.

Speaker 1 He's like found the, I think Blake has found like the secret to happiness because he just seems like

Speaker 1 he'll call you back whenever he feels like it.

Speaker 11 It's not offensive either. No, no, he's just who he is.
He's just doing something or he's not and he doesn't feel like it.

Speaker 1 Yeah, exactly. He could just be.
I could imagine sometimes I call him and he's just like staring out at his like lawn. He's like, yeah, I'll call him back later.
Yeah, that's right.

Speaker 1 He's having a great time. Having a moment, right? He's the best.

Speaker 1 Are you, will you ever apologize for the Saints game? To who? The Saints fans. No, God.
Okay. Okay.

Speaker 11 They got the ball in overtime. They had a chance to win it.

Speaker 1 There we go. I like that.
Was that passenger interference?

Speaker 11 No, no.

Speaker 1 It wasn't.

Speaker 1 That's going to pin so many people.

Speaker 1 Was it called pass interference? It was not. It was not called pass interference.

Speaker 11 I've had a million pass interferences that weren't called.

Speaker 1 Exactly.

Speaker 5 Jordan.

Speaker 11 Who says he makes the field goal, too?

Speaker 11 I know it was automatic from there. Lutz was, but I don't know.

Speaker 5 Yeah, they asked Jordan, like, did you push off against the jazz, game six? He's like, did they call it?

Speaker 1 Right, did they call it? No. No.

Speaker 11 I thought Roby's response was fantastic after the game, though, when they asked him, and he was like, yeah, it was.

Speaker 1 He's like, Rob, don't say that, Roby. That was, was there ever a moment during that two-week stretch? Because I remember, like, Saints fans were like trying to petition.

Speaker 1 They were trying to take it to like Supreme Court.

Speaker 1 You're like, Are they going to actually figure out a way to play this game again?

Speaker 11 Yeah, they wanted to restart it from that play.

Speaker 1 No,

Speaker 11 they had, they had, that happened, and then they ended up throwing the ball again. They could have ran it and ran off more clock, they threw an incompletion.

Speaker 11 Um, and then, you know, we got lucky, they turned it over to us in overtime, and we made a field goal from 60 yards. It wasn't like it was perfect for us either.

Speaker 5 Yeah, don't, yeah, I guess I wouldn't apologize, but also there's a lot of people that are gonna be very mad hearing you say that.

Speaker 11 That's okay. They're going to be mad.
They're not

Speaker 1 bringing it up.

Speaker 11 Every once in a while, Dan was on that staff. So

Speaker 1 I'll

Speaker 11 just toss it out there every once in a while if a situation comes up that is somewhat similar and he laughs about it.

Speaker 1 He handles it good. I read a story that Dan Campbell, that was like the first time he kind of fell in love with you because your toughness in that game.

Speaker 11 Yeah,

Speaker 11 that was the loudest game I've ever played in, and I don't know, maybe ever will play in.

Speaker 11 Just in that place, it was like reverbing off the roof.

Speaker 1 Right.

Speaker 11 The amount of noise. And I remember that first third down and my helmet was all messed up.
So we had to grit through that one certainly and get to the other side.

Speaker 1 Do you love Dan Campbell? Love him. We love him.

Speaker 11 I love him too.

Speaker 5 So was it love at first sight or did he have to grow on you a little bit?

Speaker 11 No, I've always loved him. I think seeing him grow as a head coach has been so fun.

Speaker 11 Come into his own.

Speaker 11 I know, you know, for me too, I think him seeing me grow into my own as a quarterback, it's been fun to kind of grow together and go through the trials and and tribulations together and have a chance to, you know, have a, have a pretty good team this year and do some things.

Speaker 5 So he said that he wanted a live lion on the sideline. Very true story.
Very real thing that he actually wants for the record. I appreciate everybody writing articles about it.

Speaker 5 How would you react to having a lion on the sideline?

Speaker 11 I'd love it. As long as it's in a cage, right?

Speaker 1 I don't know if it would be loose. That's soft.
No, you got to have it loose. Just running around? Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1 Maybe one of, you know, like the, the, when someone has a big yard and they have the almost zip line and they have their dog on the zip line, you could do that through the whole field oh or have the the lion run out and retrieve the kick on kickoffs instead of like the dog i kind of like like how colorado runs out with the buffalo yeah someone runs out with a lion yeah that'd be very intimidating like a couple people holding it on a leash what about dan campbell riding the lion oh that'd be really these are all real things

Speaker 11 that sounds like a metallica song yeah yeah dan campbell actually fun fact about him he uh does practice and then the rest of the day the next 10 hours he just thinks about live lions that's what the media would have you believe i saw that yeah yeah do you think that he does is he good at doing that sort of thing like okay i'm gonna play into the so good image of dan campbell that a lot of people i'll throw them some red meat so they got something to write about so they're not writing negative things about about the team or yeah that struggled i think he just does it for sport at this point like he thinks it's funny the panay's play that we talked about earlier where he you know joked with the media afterwards that his headset was off he didn't know what was happening and then all of a sudden we're throwing it to panay and yeah people took that as you know he was telling the truth yeah that he was not aware that we were running that play

Speaker 11 and they're like, you know, Dan Campbell doesn't even know what player they're. It's like, all right, like, you know, I think it's funny.

Speaker 11 And I've told people a million times, he looks like a meathead. He's a big, strong dude.
He talks like he does, but he's as smart as anyone I've been around.

Speaker 5 That's some art of war shit. It's like

Speaker 5 make your opponent believe that you're unprepared.

Speaker 1 Right, right. He kind of listens.

Speaker 5 And the rest continue to underestimate. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Right.

Speaker 1 Should we talk a little bit about your

Speaker 1 college team and the Big 12 trying to rip apart the Pac-12? Sure. Cal's in trouble.

Speaker 1 What's going to happen?

Speaker 11 I don't think Cal's Cal's going anywhere. Yeah.
Whoa. I think we are at Pac-12 steadfast.

Speaker 1 Did it just be Cal and Stanford? That's right. Just Cal and Stanford.

Speaker 11 Cal Stanford, maybe Oregon State.

Speaker 11 You know, Arizona, Arizona State, sound like they're going to stay.

Speaker 1 No, no, no, no, it doesn't. They're not? No, I don't think so.

Speaker 11 Okay, so Cal Stanford, Oregon State.

Speaker 1 Okay, and maybe Washington State, too.

Speaker 11 Sure, in Washington State, we just run, you know, we play each other three times a year.

Speaker 1 Round Robin. Exactly.

Speaker 1 But your coach, who we actually had on a couple times this year, Sonny Dykes from college. I mean, were you at all surprised that he had that success going to TCU?

Speaker 1 Because there were moments, especially his Cal time, where it felt like he was teetering and like, can he get the job done?

Speaker 11 Yeah, no, I was so excited for him. I think the TCU job was a perfect landing spot for him, and I know he was excited for it.
And the team they had last year was gritty and

Speaker 11 was able to win some close games. I mean, were they the most talented team? Probably not, but they did some things that were pretty special in the fourth quarter of those games.

Speaker 11 I'm sure covered some spreads for you guys and maybe hit some overs for you guys. All right.

Speaker 1 That field goal was wild.

Speaker 5 The one where he just ran the guys out there. Was it Baylor?

Speaker 5 Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 1 It was late in the year. Yeah.

Speaker 11 Yeah. Yeah.
But I was so, I mean, I was so fired up for him and obviously didn't finish the way they wanted. But, um, and I love Duggan.
I told Duggan the game, I think it was Big 12 game.

Speaker 11 I think they lost Kansas State. Yeah, the Big 12 champion.
The most impressive. quarterback like college, you know, how tired he was.
And they're like, go for two.

Speaker 11 And he can barely even get back in the huddle. Yeah.
Just going. I loved it.

Speaker 1 They were just running him like over and over. Yes.
You could tell. It's very hard.
Like a lot of the times someone will be gaspy. You can't really tell.

Speaker 1 He looked so fatigued and it was because he just kept on. He was like having a heat stroke.

Speaker 11 Yeah. You know, running it again.
And it was.

Speaker 1 And then they'd stop the ball and he'd be like 15 yards, right? Rip it off. Yeah.
Yeah.

Speaker 5 You remember that video that you did where you went back to college and you got dressed up? That was good, huh?

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 5 And did it, well, it was very clearly just Jared Goff participating in a practice. Right.
Was anybody on the team like, hey, you're just Jared? Why is Jared Goff practicing?

Speaker 11 I think we did a good job of the disguise.

Speaker 11 What they did before that is they had cameras there telling them they were on like last chance you for like a week. So then by the time I got there,

Speaker 11 it didn't seem like there was just cameras there.

Speaker 1 Uh-huh.

Speaker 11 Um, and and I think what actually, if you remember, there was one receiver who spoke up and said, That's my, you know, that's our quarterback. Like, we don't want a new quarterback.

Speaker 11 Yeah, that was Tayvon Austin's cousin. So he knew he was in on it.
Okay. So he was kind of like playing into it a little bit.
And I had him to kind of help me, you know, maneuver around a little bit.

Speaker 11 But no, I don't think they knew. And it went pretty viral.
And it's still something people remind me of today.

Speaker 5 Eli copied it later.

Speaker 1 I know he did. I told him that.

Speaker 1 I told him.

Speaker 11 I said the Pro Bowl. I'm like, you guys just straight.
He's like, yeah, we kind of ripped off.

Speaker 1 That would be funny.

Speaker 11 He had a little bit more horsepower behind it with ESPN and Eli's places or whatever they call it.

Speaker 4 Sorry, we'll get Joe Buck to go after Eli for that.

Speaker 5 Yeah, for sure. He hates him.

Speaker 5 It would have been funny if you had

Speaker 5 showed up for that practice and just had an off day. He sucked.
And the coach was like, I guess we got to cut you.

Speaker 1 Throwing it to the other team. Yeah.

Speaker 1 What's I'm going to give you an opportunity to gas up Lions fans? Okay.

Speaker 1 I would imagine going from LA to Detroit in terms of fandom is a pretty big difference in how people like live and breathe and eat football out here. Yeah.

Speaker 1 So what is your been your experience with Lions fans day to day or just in general?

Speaker 11 Yeah, it's as loyal, as

Speaker 11 passionate, as you know,

Speaker 11 fervorous, like just foaming at the mouth type of thing that these fans are. It's so fun to be around.
I go to dinner, I go to the supermarket.

Speaker 11 It's always, you know, people are always saying they're so excited. Can't wait for the game.
A lot of people are coming to practice, telling me, hey, I'm going to be at practice tomorrow.

Speaker 11 And people are so excited.

Speaker 11 We're so excited to put on a show for them this year and see what we can do.

Speaker 5 Yeah.

Speaker 5 What's your favorite throw?

Speaker 1 Ever?

Speaker 11 Yeah. Like that I've ever made or type of throw?

Speaker 1 Ever made. We'll do that.
Oh, gosh.

Speaker 11 Favorite throw I've ever made?

Speaker 11 Man, that's a hard question.

Speaker 11 I'll go with the ball I threw to St. Brown to win the game against Minnesota

Speaker 11 wasn't all that great of a throw, but the implications of it were pretty cool.

Speaker 11 Coming to that game, I think we were 0-8 is our first win that year. The Oxford shooting had just happened.
We had some of their families there.

Speaker 11 Being able to win that game in that fashion was pretty cool.

Speaker 11 My favorite type of throw is definitely a post or a go, something you can layer out there a little bit.

Speaker 1 That's a good answer.

Speaker 5 Yeah, I would have said, I would have said wheel route. I like wheels.
I like the wheel. Sure.

Speaker 11 You like throwing the wheel or you like running the wheel?

Speaker 5 Both. I like watching the wheel.
Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 1 It always works. Have you noticed that?

Speaker 11 When have you seen it work?

Speaker 1 It's one juke and then to the house.

Speaker 11 Right, just an out and up, right? Right.

Speaker 5 It's an out and up. They always forget to cover the running back.
Yeah. I don't know why.

Speaker 1 He catches a ball, maybe a spin move, maybe a juke. It's gone.

Speaker 11 And you like throwing it and running it?

Speaker 5 Yeah, well, I haven't ever thrown one, but I think I would like to throw it.

Speaker 1 Perfect, yeah. If I was ever quarterback.
I've thrown a lot of wheel routes. You've thrown a lot? Well, with my fingers in a video game.
Right. Yeah.
That counts. That counts.
That absolutely counts.

Speaker 11 Four verticals on Madden. We run a simple one.

Speaker 1 Yeah, exactly. That absolutely counts.
Yeah. I know the game.
There you go.

Speaker 1 What's your Dan Campbell? I mean, we've talked about him a lot, but

Speaker 1 what's the one thing this year that he's telling the team that's like different? Because

Speaker 1 it's weird going into the season. The Lions are very hyped up.

Speaker 1 Everyone's wondering, can they keep the momentum going? How is he trying to keep everyone on the same page? We're like, don't believe this shit.

Speaker 11 It's very simple, I think. And he's done a great job of it.
It's just, it's the same exact people that were telling us how bad we were last year. Right.
And it happened so quickly. Right.

Speaker 11 Like, it's not like it took three years for them to change their mind. It's like took like...
10 games. And they're like, oh, no, they're good now.

Speaker 11 It's like, okay, so you can't really listen to either side of it because they were wrong when they told us

Speaker 11 we were bad. And now we can't believe them now if they're telling us we're good.
We still have to put the work in and prove them right is kind of the idea.

Speaker 11 But um yeah we've got a lot of work to do we got a lot of work to do to continue to get better uh and i always think in the league you know we play and it's about runs like how do you get on winning streaks and how do you get off of losing streaks and we were on winning streaks last year we had a couple of them we won three in a row and doesn't mean we're going to start on a winning streak this year and like knowing that we have to kind of find a way to grasp that momentum again and get on a winning streak.

Speaker 1 It's a great point about the media too, because it really was

Speaker 1 like a month and a half. It was, yeah.
I mean, I said it was like six weeks. Yeah, when you were one and six, I was like, I I think Dan Campbell lost locker room.
I told him that because I'm an idiot.

Speaker 1 I said, I just react to everything so, so severely. Like, every loss is like, that's the end of the world.
Right. And every win's like, damn, that team's incredible.
Best ever. Right.
Yeah.

Speaker 11 No, no. And like I spoke about with our media, it's interesting that, you know,

Speaker 11 they kind of enjoy, it seems to, like, they have so many more questions when we're losing. Right.

Speaker 11 They know what they're going to write. They know what the people want to read.
They know what the clickbait, negative clickbait is to get people to read it.

Speaker 11 And then we start winning and it's like the questions kind of go away. They don't really know what to ask anymore.
They're not quite used to it. And that's enjoyable for us.

Speaker 5 That's nice, yeah. And you don't have hard knocks this year, which has got to be nice.
Really nice. Last year at Hard Knocks, were you like, okay, I'm experienced at this now.

Speaker 5 Don't ask me any science questions. Like

Speaker 5 where the sun comes from.

Speaker 11 No more sun. I'm still figuring that one out.

Speaker 11 It gets confusing every day. I got to look up.
All right, that's West. Got it.

Speaker 1 All right. No, East.
Oh, shoot, it's East.

Speaker 11 But no, that was good. They were easy.
I know the crew pretty well by now. We have a first name basis with some of those people, so they were easy.

Speaker 5 We can give you a chance to kind of redeem yourself. Have you seen Oppenheimer?

Speaker 1 No.

Speaker 5 Okay, I was going to ask you to explain how atomic bombs work.

Speaker 11 Yeah, way beyond what I would know.

Speaker 1 Have you seen Barbie? I have seen Barbie. What did you think?

Speaker 11 I thought it was funny. I know there's a lot of...

Speaker 11 of differing opinions on it. I thought it was really funny, actually, if you go into it knowing it's supposed to be like stupid funny.

Speaker 11 You know, if you you think it's supposed to be like a you know feature film i don't know if it's that's what the point of it it was a movie for everybody i thought it was hilarious was you dressed up i did not get dressed up

Speaker 1 i might have been the only dude in there but i thought it was funny was it an accurate depiction of growing up in california no no no no no that's why it was funny though it was like so over the top like you know stupid funny but it was good it was an accurate depiction of growing up looking like ryan gosley uh

Speaker 11 some ways yeah

Speaker 11 i i i every time he makes a movie that seems to like kind of come out again And I'll take it. You know, he's a good-looking dude.
That's a good thing.

Speaker 1 There's worse people. I guess worse Malone.
You get Ryan Goss.

Speaker 5 Like, I'd say you win that round.

Speaker 1 Yeah. I mean, I've been talking about looking like a fat raccoon eating garbage under a porch.
That's not a great thing to be compared to. You got the pepper, salt and pepper.
Yeah, exactly.

Speaker 1 So that's way worse.

Speaker 1 I see the raccoon now. Yeah, right.
See, that's mean, but I'm going to take it. I'm going to internalize it.
I'm going to get better, but I'm not.

Speaker 7 All protein bars generally taste the same, but not one bars. One-made protein bars are actually delicious with Reese's and Hershey's.

Speaker 7 Only one Reese's peanut butter lover's protein bar is made with Reese's peanut butter, and only one Hershey's cookies and cream protein bars is made with Hershey's cookie bits while delivering 18 grams of protein and 3 grams of sugar.

Speaker 7 One bars are the perfect protein bar to get you through your busy day, whether you need a quick pick-me-up between meetings or you need some fuel to power you through your next workout.

Speaker 7 One also has other delicious flavors like birthday cake, maple glazed donut, and blueberry cobbler. Find all one bars at a retailer near you or on amazon.com.

Speaker 1 First week one, Patrick Mahomes. Is this the first time you guys have played since that game? Yeah.

Speaker 5 That game was awesome.

Speaker 1 Are you going to, yeah. So before the game, you're going to be like, remember that game?

Speaker 11 Yeah, let's do it again.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 1 That rule.

Speaker 11 Yeah, no, that was a fun one, man. That's an all-timer favorite throw.

Speaker 11 It might be that last throw in that game ever yeah now that i'm thinking about it um but yeah that was insane it was a 54 51 and felt like college again where like you just kind of just shooting out there and figuring it out but no he's he's uh he's got a different defense now that i have to play that's the diplomatic answer and he's he's got to play our defense but you know hopefully it's a shootout that goes our way again yeah it's going to be so fun to watch i can't wait for week one i mean it's it's kind of crazy that the lions are opening up the season yeah we're excited why is it crazy it's it no it's i'm not talking about about this Lions team.

Speaker 5 I'm just saying in the history of the Lions.

Speaker 5 Yeah. Like you guys haven't had the last season.

Speaker 11 I only know from the last two years here.

Speaker 1 That's all.

Speaker 1 That's all. That's all.
Short memory. I like that.
Yeah. I don't know anything beyond since I've been here.
There you go.

Speaker 5 The Lions, they shouldn't be opening up football season. Come on.
It's the Lions.

Speaker 1 There you go. And I say, what is that supposed to mean? Yeah.

Speaker 5 It's the Lions. Come on.
You know what that means.

Speaker 1 I don't. All right.
I like it. There you go.

Speaker 1 We'll cut this part, but

Speaker 1 how fast is Justin Fields? So fast. He's fast.
He's so fast. Yeah, you like him? Oh, he's so fast.
Yeah.

Speaker 11 You still pulling for them when we play each other?

Speaker 1 Yeah. Yeah.
Okay.

Speaker 1 Well, yeah.

Speaker 1 I mean, I want you to play well,

Speaker 1 but lose every time.

Speaker 11 Every time we play Chicago or just in general?

Speaker 1 Chicago. Oh, yeah, yeah.
You go to the bottom. So

Speaker 11 15-2 would be fine with you?

Speaker 1 Yeah, the Bears go 16-1. Okay.

Speaker 1 Who do they lose to?

Speaker 1 Question.

Speaker 5 Commanders, Thursday night. Who do we play? 6-3.

Speaker 1 Who else do we play in the... Do we play the...
We'll probably lose to the Chiefs. I'll be honest.
That's me being unbiased. 16-1, lose to the Chiefs.
That's fair. That's very fair.
That's very fair.

Speaker 1 I have a fair.

Speaker 1 I hope it doesn't go that well for them, but we'll see.

Speaker 1 All right. Well, Jared, it has now been zero days since you've been on Pardon My Take.
That's right. We love you.
You've been a very supportive friend all these years. So

Speaker 1 thank you so much. Thank you.

Speaker 1 Let's, you know, I'm not going to say go Lions, but I'm rooting for you to have a great year. You can say it.
No, I'm not going to say that.

Speaker 11 Why not?

Speaker 1 Because I'm rooting for you guys to have a great year just below the Bears. That's fair.

Speaker 11 So make the playoffs?

Speaker 1 Yeah, sure. Okay.
Yeah. NFC, remember, imagine NFC championship game in Chicago?

Speaker 11 Lions, Bears. You wanted them to have the home field?

Speaker 1 Oh, yeah. Congrats on being able to play in cold weather.

Speaker 11 Oh, I can do that now? Yes.

Speaker 1 Got it. You couldn't that game in 2018.
That was tough. Yeah.

Speaker 11 That wasn't because of the weather. That defense was dang.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 Vic Fangio had the boys fired going.

Speaker 11 Yes. But yeah, thank you.

Speaker 1 You could officially play in cold weather.

Speaker 11 I'm a Midwest cold weather guy now. Thank you.
Yep.

Speaker 1 Love that. All right.
Thanks so much, Jared.

Speaker 11 Thank you guys. Appreciate it.

Speaker 12 Whether I'm hosting game day at my place or taking my talents to the tailgate, Boarshead is my go-to for a spread that's as exciting as the game itself. Their platters are a hit every time.

Speaker 12 They've got everything you need to keep your guests coming back for more. And if you want to take it up a notch, grab a few dips.

Speaker 12 My personal favorite, the Blazing Buffalo Chicken, hummus, or even one of their charcuterie collections for game-changing flavor.

Speaker 12 Boarshead helps me elevate my entertaining every time, whether it's for a tailgate or a home gating celebration.

Speaker 12 To upgrade your spread, visit your local Boarshead deli for platter options or build your own to make it perfect for your crowd. Boarshead, committed to craft since 1905.

Speaker 13 Man, I'll tell you what. When you're hungry out there, you start acting like a rookie quarterback in his first game, making bad decisions, messing up the basics, being all out of sorts.

Speaker 13 That's where Snickers comes in, man. That thing is packed.
Roasted peanuts, nugget, caramel, milk chocolate. It's like the MVP of candy bars.

Speaker 13 And when you bite into it, boom, it sorts you out, gets your head back in the game of life, satisfying your hunger. Remember this: Snickers handles your hunger so you can handle everything else.

Speaker 13 Snickers satisfies, man. That's a winning play.

Speaker 1 Okay, time for the Mount Rushmore. Mount Rushmore of things that are only fun once.
Did I say it right? Yes. Okay, so

Speaker 1 the Mount Rushmore standings are very tight. It's 18, 18, 16.
Is that correct? Yep.

Speaker 4 18, 18, 16, 18, 17, 17, 16.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I think.

Speaker 1 Well, we have it, guys. We can pull it up.
Yeah. Yeah.
It's 18, 18, 16. Either way, since this is Billy's last episode, Billy will still be able to consult with Jake on picks.

Speaker 1 He can also, we're also going to let them use memes for their team. So memes can be.
18, 18, 17. 18, 18, 17.
Yeah, memes, you're allowed to help them.

Speaker 1 You don't have to do the punishment if they lose, but you can help them. Okay?

Speaker 1 That's fair, because we don't want to leave Jake, you know, and I think Jake's not going to be here on Sunday, so you're going to be picking for their team on Sunday.

Speaker 4 Is Kittle going to make an appearance in the...

Speaker 1 I think he's got a football season?

Speaker 4 I know, but technically he's part of the loss.

Speaker 8 That's true.

Speaker 4 I think he should at least FaceTime. Well, you guys haven't lost yet.

Speaker 1 Well, 187.

Speaker 4 But just in case, if he wins, we're going to go.

Speaker 1 What's the order for the Mount Rushmore of things that are only fun to do once? So Billy and I will go first.

Speaker 7 Okay.

Speaker 1 Hank and Mac second. Big Cat and PFT third.
Okay. Love it.
Billy, would you like to announce your final 1-1?

Speaker 1 Let's make sure we're on the same page.

Speaker 4 We're on the same page.

Speaker 1 That one?

Speaker 4 One of one, things fun to do once. We're going with an all-nighter.

Speaker 1 Ooh.

Speaker 4 Just staying up all night.

Speaker 1 Just to party all night? Definitely done that more than once. Billy, what do you plan on doing tonight?

Speaker 1 Pulling an all-nighter. And have you ever done that before? Literally, your plan tonight is to pull it all night.

Speaker 1 It's things that are fun to do once, right? Yeah, but once, I'm sure Billy's. And then never do them again.

Speaker 1 They're not fun.

Speaker 1 Shit. I think Jake was thinking about studying.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 That's not fun. I've pulled multiple all-nighters, and every time they've been too much fun.
Yeah, all-nighters aren't fun the next day. No, right.

Speaker 1 But in the moment, that's why you stay up all night because you're having so much fun.

Speaker 5 And they're very fun the next time you do them.

Speaker 1 Right. And they're like, all-nighters are so much fun that, like, I wish I was still in a state where I could do them.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 In a sleepover context. They are the best.
Yeah. Just being like, let's fucking go to a casino.
Yeah. Let's, you know,

Speaker 1 business ideas. There's nothing.
Movie ideas. There's nothing.
Yeah. Just all of that.
Where you can invest all your money quick if you got all your friends to pull all their money.

Speaker 1 Reliving like your little league baseball playoffs from when you were 11 years old.

Speaker 5 Watching highlights of like your football highlights yeah yeah exactly hanging out with a friend that you haven't seen in like seven years and being like yo man i've missed you so much yeah having a meeting in the bathroom stall at 4 a.m yeah exactly i

Speaker 1 pull off an all-nighter once and it was with you guys 2020 great week oh so key that's 24 hours yeah that's it what about a sleep away amp that was it yeah that's it i've gotten at least like what a cuse with the boys i've never seen

Speaker 1 every night than hearing the birds start to chirp and you're like oh man no but that's scary that's scary yeah That's anxiety. First moment you're like, I got there.
No, yeah, you're going to bed.

Speaker 4 No, no, but like that one time when you don't know that there's that bird feeling in the morning, once you know there's the birds in the morning, because you don't do it on purpose.

Speaker 1 I like your.

Speaker 1 Let me just reiterate. Billy has a flight tomorrow morning and his chance and his idea is to pull an all-nighter.

Speaker 4 Yeah, well, when I have to go to the airport at 3 a.m.

Speaker 1 Right, but you're

Speaker 1 211, eh?

Speaker 1 You know what you're talking about? All right, Billy. We've trashed our picks before.
We're right in the race. Don't listen to them.
They're not worth any votes.

Speaker 5 Oh, actually, we are, Jake.

Speaker 1 Yeah, every vote counts. Easy Trump.
I voted

Speaker 4 three measly votes.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 1 Four.

Speaker 1 We are going to go with losing your virginity.

Speaker 5 Well, it's only possible to do once. Right.

Speaker 1 You can also lose different types of virginity. You can't do it twice.
That's why it's something that's fun to do once. That's your point, Billy.
Okay. So.

Speaker 1 All right. Okay, this is off to a bang, guys.
Let's go.

Speaker 1 PFT, let's talk numbers. Yeah, let's do some numbies here.

Speaker 5 I like number 10. That's a pretty good one to start with.

Speaker 1 You're already going to do that. Yeah, okay.
Maybe we go 10 and 2.

Speaker 5 Or 10 and 11.

Speaker 1 Safe driving. Okay.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 1 All right.

Speaker 1 You want one, two, three.

Speaker 5 Beating a video game.

Speaker 1 Beating a video game. I mean, beating it once.
You can't go back and beat another video. Like a video game.

Speaker 1 It's not as fun. It's not as as fun.
It's fun to do once.

Speaker 5 You skip all the side quests.

Speaker 1 And then you have that moment you're like, man, I used a lot of my time to beat this video game.

Speaker 4 Running back Mario Kart Wii has been like, in my age,

Speaker 1 I did beat a lot of games. It's not a behemoth.

Speaker 4 Yes, you can. You unlock all the races.
You get gold crowns in all of them.

Speaker 1 Okay, but like beating Mario 64, I remember the moment I did it and I was like, all right.

Speaker 1 Now what? But then you wait a couple of years and then you do and then you're like, oh, yeah, my favorite dude. No, no.
When you've done it, when you've beaten it, it's not the same on this trend.

Speaker 1 It's not true.

Speaker 1 That's not true. I'm replaying Flappy Golf 2.
It's just as fun.

Speaker 5 If you beat GoldenEye and you go back and you know all the secrets and stuff, it does not have that same allure. The first time you beat GoldenEye, you think that you are God.

Speaker 4 No, Skyrim, you can play a thousand times.

Speaker 1 I think it's a good pick.

Speaker 4 I think Skyrim is the greatest.

Speaker 5 You can figure out what we're doing for a second pick.

Speaker 1 Yeah, we'll do crack.

Speaker 5 Crack. Crack.
Crack. Fun to do once.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 Crack. No.
I don't think it's fun to do once.

Speaker 5 It's definitely fun to do it one time. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Crack, crack.

Speaker 4 No, because the second time you want to do it even more.

Speaker 5 No, no, the first time you want to do it so bad again.

Speaker 1 Do it once, it'd be fun, and then you never do it again. Now do it the second time, you're like, oh, no, I've got a problem.

Speaker 5 I've never done crack, but it's probably not possible to just do it one time.

Speaker 1 But it would be great if you only do it once. So Jacob.
If you do it one time, one time only, it'd be very fun. Yeah, I mean, it would only be fun.

Speaker 1 The only thing that you've never done once is actually a touchdown. Have you done crack? That's a pain.
Have you done crack?

Speaker 5 If you do crack one time, then it's all you've done.

Speaker 1 Have you done crack?

Speaker 1 You've never done cracks. It must be awesome.
How would you know that it's fun to do it once?

Speaker 5 Yeah, because it's all you think about for the rest of your life.

Speaker 1 How do you know that? How do you know? How have you done crack?

Speaker 5 I've not done crack, no.

Speaker 1 Yeah, so you guys. He's literally pulled an all-nighter.
You got to do it for work. Dude,

Speaker 1 I never fell asleep in that night. Yeah.
No, it did it. Hey, if we were talking about your virginity,

Speaker 4 you can say heroin and be like, oh, yeah, I've done like stuff after like.

Speaker 1 It's going to be a contentious one no matter what. Okay, crack stands.
It's a good pick. It's a pick that you haven't done once.
Okay. Do crack and then.
Do crack right now.

Speaker 1 It would be fun once. You don't know that.

Speaker 5 That should be the punishment for fantasy football.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 4 I bet we can find some crack.

Speaker 1 Yeah, you think. No way.

Speaker 1 Our next pick is going to be touring a famous historical monument.

Speaker 1 Okay. It's cool.
You get to see some stuff. You're like, oh, this is fun.

Speaker 4 Name one historical monument.

Speaker 1 I've done the Washington Monument. Like, did that whole tour? It was cool.
You know how it was? Never do it. The monument? No.
No, it's tank. That was good.
You went up? Up? To the top?

Speaker 1 The Washington Monument? You did the tour? You went up? I I think you're still on the tour. I went to the Lincoln Memorial.

Speaker 5 Oh, you walked next to the monument. Interesting.

Speaker 1 I went to Lincoln. I saw it up.
I sat up on his lap. Wait, that's like the Washington.

Speaker 1 Then I went to the whatever the fucking thing was.

Speaker 1 Don't let you sit on Lincoln's lap. Big triangular thing.

Speaker 5 I don't think you've ever toured the historical monument.

Speaker 1 You're fraud. I have.

Speaker 1 My sister went to Catholic in Washington. We went, graduation, toured around.

Speaker 5 I think you just sit next to it and looked at it.

Speaker 1 You do not sit in Abe Lincoln's lap. No, that was a joke.
Okay, so our

Speaker 4 second second pick is going to jail.

Speaker 1 Oh, okay. Kind of fun once.
Yeah, okay. Yeah.
It is kind of fun. It's gone.

Speaker 1 That was a first-hand experience. Oh, you've gone twice.
It was actually fun both times, but

Speaker 1 wasn't the first time more fun, though? No, the second time was more fun. First time was a little scary.
I didn't really have a job, and I was like, fuck. Yeah.
I'm fucked. Second time was for work.

Speaker 5 If you have a job, going to jail is fun.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 1 All right. Going on the back end, Billy.

Speaker 1 Agreed? Also, I don't know if my parents I don't know that I went to jail twice.

Speaker 1 We're going to go with getting married. Okay.

Speaker 1 Definitely more fun the first time. We had that on our list, too.
Yeah. Yeah.
Although I was thinking about it more if you're married second time. I have not.

Speaker 1 But when I intend to do it, I intend to do it. Second time, it probably would be cool because you're like, done with that first one.

Speaker 1 If you had a prenup. Yeah.

Speaker 4 True. No, but in the back of your head, the second time is like, this could go like the first time.

Speaker 1 Yeah, but then you're kind of calloused to it.

Speaker 5 First time you're like, forever.

Speaker 1 Right. Together.
Right. Right.

Speaker 1 What if your significant other passes away?

Speaker 1 Okay, yeah.

Speaker 1 There's a little gray area there. And you're just so lonely and sad, and then you get married a second time.

Speaker 4 But then you're thinking the second time they might die again.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 1 I think we're dancing bros finding the RV. Okay.

Speaker 1 Hang. Oh, no, you gotta go.
No, they just went twice. Right? Let's hang them out.
Yeah, Max.

Speaker 4 Do I need to secure the perimeter?

Speaker 1 We are going to go with

Speaker 1 being in a pay-per-view boxing fight. Ooh, okay.
It's really fun once. Billy can speak to this.

Speaker 1 Billy wants to do it again, so. Well, he didn't really fight once.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 Well, bite me, Max. Pushy, fight me.
You won't.

Speaker 1 No, I won't. You won't.
We would literally, dude, you're an idiot.

Speaker 1 You're like an idiot. You're an idiot.
Billy really wants me to fight it for 180 seconds.

Speaker 4 You could get a bag, but you're

Speaker 1 too stupid or you just wear shirts that aren't made well.

Speaker 1 But yeah, it was affordable shirts. It was really a blast.
It was a lot of anxiety, a lot of training.

Speaker 1 What about the fact that Billy wants to be again?

Speaker 1 Well,

Speaker 1 Max is right. He didn't really fight.

Speaker 1 He walked out and Jose Cantego slid on his head.

Speaker 1 What's Billy's record? 1-0. Yeah,

Speaker 5 you said just fighting in one, right?

Speaker 1 Fighting in a pay-per-view boxing match.

Speaker 5 But if you lose in a pay-per-view boxing match one time, that would not be fun.

Speaker 1 Dude, fighting is a good thing. But you said the adrenaline.
The adrenaline is like a feeling you can really feel fun

Speaker 5 way if you lost. You would not feel good about it.
Yeah, but it's fun.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 4 No, I talked to Oscar De La Hoya about this. Yep.
The rush of fighting is better than anything.

Speaker 1 Two fighters that are on the same par.

Speaker 4 I was just like, yo, dude, isn't it sick?

Speaker 1 He's like, yeah, man. Okay.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 1 Arpeck? Yeah.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 5 Okay, Big Kat, I like number five and number 20.

Speaker 4 Okay. Those don't seem like we haven't gone through that many paintings.

Speaker 1 I think we do two and 20 or two and 20. Okay.

Speaker 5 Yeah, yeah. You go with two.
All right.

Speaker 1 Learning to walk. Learning to walk.
Do you remember learning to walk?

Speaker 1 If you had to learn to walk a second time, it would suck so bad.

Speaker 1 But it means a catastrophic injury happened, and you have to learn to walk again.

Speaker 4 It might have really happened.

Speaker 1 Learning to walk would be fun once.

Speaker 5 Learning to walk is definitely fun the first time.

Speaker 1 It's fun once.

Speaker 5 You can get around.

Speaker 4 Have you ever... Do you remember learning to walk?

Speaker 5 Does that even matter? You ever seen a baby?

Speaker 1 I've seen my two kids. My third hasn't walked yet, but they had a lot of fun learning to walk.
If anyone has to learn to walk a second time, it's a bad, bad scene.

Speaker 5 Would you guys agree? I would.

Speaker 4 I learned to run before I learned to walk.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 1 Only like 20 more minutes. All right.

Speaker 1 We got this, guys.

Speaker 5 Hey, put the force up.

Speaker 1 All right.

Speaker 5 For our last pick, we're going to go invading Iraq.

Speaker 5 Very fun the first time. Just kind of steamroll the country second time.

Speaker 1 Not so nice.

Speaker 5 Not as much fun. You kind of just hang out there for the next 20 years.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 Was not as fun the second time. That's a fact.

Speaker 1 That's a good pick. Thank you.

Speaker 1 I don't think Max or Hank

Speaker 1 was twice. Yeah.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 When was the first time? In the early 90s.

Speaker 5 1990, 91.

Speaker 1 I'm anti-all war. Oh, okay.
Okay.

Speaker 5 What about World War II? Pro-Hitler?

Speaker 1 Yeah. I don't really

Speaker 1 whatever. Okay.

Speaker 1 All right. You guys have your pick? I don't have another pick.

Speaker 1 Max has one, and I don't care that it's. I'm just going to let him cook.

Speaker 1 He can pick something else if he wants. Is this the one you've been teasing? Yes.
Oh, you're going to use it. I thought you were going to say, hey, he's picking LeBron James as your goat.
I think

Speaker 1 one person will agree with me. Oh, man.
Okay, here we go.

Speaker 1 We're doing it. We're doing it.

Speaker 1 Oh, man. We're doing it.
Drum roll. Titty fucking.

Speaker 1 Dude, what?

Speaker 1 Sam. It's definitely fun more than once.

Speaker 1 No,

Speaker 1 that is something that you're in middle school. Are you getting titty fucked? No.

Speaker 1 That's me.

Speaker 1 If you want to say Max you getting titty fucked,

Speaker 1 why would that be fun ever? Again, I don't know, but you're the one who said it. I'm a team player.
I let Max pick LeBron. I let Max pick this.
Max Max picked up this.

Speaker 1 I don't stand for either of them.

Speaker 1 I don't stand for either of them.

Speaker 5 I disagree vehemently.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 1 On your choice. It's one of the craziest things I've ever heard.

Speaker 1 I think that it's a thing that when you're in middle school, you like dream about, and then you do it, and it's like, this isn't that fun.

Speaker 1 I don't want to do this anymore. It's awesome.
It's way better. No.
No, it's awesome. Wait, you're saying it wasn't even fun once.
No, no.

Speaker 1 I'm saying the first time it's like, oh, yeah, you get the adrenaline out. Like, you look forward to it.
You do it. And you're like, I don't need to do that anymore.

Speaker 1 That's what you call cum adrenaline?

Speaker 1 I've literally only done it once because I was like, I don't need to do it. Oh, God.

Speaker 4 That's usually.

Speaker 5 There might be something wrong with your penis.

Speaker 1 I think Max is talking about him getting titty fucked.

Speaker 1 I'm not going to let this guy titty I'm going to let this guy titty fuck me.

Speaker 1 Max will never get titty fucked again, Pete.

Speaker 5 So, Max, I considered tossing 69 into the conversation.

Speaker 1 That's the same thing.

Speaker 1 That's also a terrible thing. There's a lot going on in 69.
It is. It's a lot.
There's a lot.

Speaker 1 Yes. Like, just, you know, I'm pretty.
Don't act like this fucking room is a bunch of studs that are going in the different positions every single night. You know, it's not positioning.

Speaker 1 You can't run the ball. Run the ball.

Speaker 1 That's like me saying, oh, it wouldn't be fun to dunk. Like, if I was physically able to do all these things, it would be a lot of fun.
No,

Speaker 1 there's going to be people out there that agree with this take. I know it.
I don't think. Mom, I'm sorry.
Oh, Jay. Just give me a look like, no way.
He's a dog. Yeah, more than once.
It's a good time.

Speaker 1 No, it's middle school. I want to get out of here.
I want to get out of here so bad. Oh, my God.

Speaker 1 Oh, my God. Oh, my God.

Speaker 1 Stand by at all.

Speaker 1 Oh my god.

Speaker 1 Okay, last pick for Billy. I hoping he was going to go with something else.
We're going to talk about in honorable mentions. He texted that to me earlier.

Speaker 1 I still think it's a great pick. I fell down.
People are going to agree with me. There's going to be people out there that agree with me.

Speaker 1 This is groupthink. This is all groupthink.

Speaker 5 I think there are going to be a lot of people that stand up for titty fuckers everywhere.

Speaker 4 You might just get lost in the cleavage.

Speaker 10 Yeah, it's

Speaker 1 too titty, titty.

Speaker 1 There's too much going on.

Speaker 1 Run the football. Dude,

Speaker 4 you can get a BJ and titty fucking.

Speaker 1 I didn't even get it out.

Speaker 1 Okay, Billy.

Speaker 5 Never my sports podcast.

Speaker 1 We're going with. Imagine the Lions fans have been waiting for Jared Goff's interview and they just kept this on for a little too long.
Like, what the fuck are they talking about?

Speaker 1 Invading Iraq, and not titty fucking it. That tank,

Speaker 1 it had to be done.

Speaker 1 I'm glad that it happened. Yeah, no, I'm very happy.
Anytime someone on Mount Rushmore season says, all right, I'm just going to go for it. You know it's going to be a great pick, bad or good.

Speaker 4 Well, because it's fun if you have a name.

Speaker 1 Oh, here we go. We got the

Speaker 1 brain council. Can you talk on the mic? Okay, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 4 Throwing a house party in high school.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 4 When parents aren't there. Okay.
It's fun the first time. You might get away with it.
You might not, but you still had that one time, but then you can't really do it again.

Speaker 4 Or if you do it again, it gets out of hand.

Speaker 5 Yeah, if you do it again, then then there's all the pressure of like, hey, we're doing it again this weekend. Oh, then it's just kind of your house is a flop.

Speaker 1 Except for the kid who has divorced parents, then it's fun all the time. Because they just go back and forth.

Speaker 1 Yeah, but if you your first one's a banger, people the bar is gonna be so high for the future ones. Yeah, you can only go downhill.
Or like someone else.

Speaker 1 Oh, you probably had a good time, and you might eat.

Speaker 1 It's a good pick, but it's like, if you have a really good time, you definitely want to do it again.

Speaker 4 No, but then, like, someone punches the drywall the first time, and you're like, oh, shit, let's cover this up.

Speaker 1 You do it.

Speaker 4 You do it.

Speaker 1 And then the next time, everyone's like, oh, we can just destroy the walls because one guy got away with it the first time.

Speaker 4 Everyone just thinks they can get away with more and more the second time.

Speaker 5 First time. How many holes have you punched a drywall before?

Speaker 1 Carry the ones.

Speaker 4 It's only fun the first time. Okay.

Speaker 1 All right. Honorable mentions.
I think I had one for you. We were going to do heroin, but

Speaker 1 I had one for you. Papadias.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Papadias.
Actually, no, not fun at all.

Speaker 1 That was the burn. That was traumatic.

Speaker 5 We had interviewing John Cena. Yeah.
That was very fun the first time. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Oh, we should have done driving across the country. Oh, we have a lot of time.
We had that underlist. Yeah.

Speaker 4 Sidewalk slammers. We got three.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Hiring Billy.

Speaker 4 Technically, you did it twice.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I know. The first time was a lot of fun.
I did.

Speaker 1 You walked into that.

Speaker 5 Going to college once is fun. Don't want to go back.
Getting titty fucked by Max is a lot fun.

Speaker 1 Or titty fucking Max. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Betting the under?

Speaker 1 I feel like every few months, big cow, you're like, yeah, I'm going to enjoy it. And then it goes back.

Speaker 1 If it wins, a win. Blue Man Group? Fuck Blue Man.
Oh, more than once. No, definitely not more than once.
Come on. The marshmallows? Don't even go once.
I've never been once.

Speaker 5 I'm supposed to go.

Speaker 1 Why are they frauds? I'm scared, though. Digging a hole with your boys.
There's more than

Speaker 1 three of them.

Speaker 5 It's a blue men group. It's a franchise.
Franchise.

Speaker 1 Digging a hole with your boys. Robbing a bank would be so much fun once.

Speaker 1 It would be.

Speaker 5 It'd be a rush.

Speaker 4 Cow tipping. It would be.

Speaker 1 I mean, Jake, come on. It would be fun.
We should make Jake rob a bank.

Speaker 4 We were talking about doing like instead of escape room, rob the bank with your boys, where there's like a fake bank and you just try to make a plan and try to rob it with your friends as like a group building activity.

Speaker 4 Yeah. Fake guns and just be like, give me all the money.

Speaker 5 Except the guns are real. And you don't tell the person, but it's like, hey, this is the fake bank robbing thing.
Now give me all the cash when you're out. Just make people rob a bank.

Speaker 4 That would be a good alibi.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 5 Cal, if we sat down and put our minds together, we could come up with a plan to rob a bank and get away with it.

Speaker 4 The thing is, I think you get addicted to it.

Speaker 1 Well, no, Jake would definitely call the cops on us. Yeah.
My friends are about to do something very dangerous. Would you call the cops on us, Jake?

Speaker 1 If I told you right now, me and PFT are going to rob a bank tomorrow. Wouldn't believe you.
We're going to do it. No, you're not.
Okay.

Speaker 5 Is it robbing a bank to just hand them a note that says, give me $50,000?

Speaker 1 And then sign it, Jake Marsh? Yeah,

Speaker 1 my name is Jake. At PMT Sportsbiz, follow me on all my socials.

Speaker 5 I live in the disabled apartment complex.

Speaker 1 I have a personal one, getting blackout drunk, drinking gin. I did that once.
Never again.

Speaker 4 Can't feel your lips.

Speaker 1 Yeah,

Speaker 1 I don't think I've drank gin.

Speaker 5 I don't think that was a gin, Billy.

Speaker 5 Dating a stripper?

Speaker 1 Mm-hmm. Fun once.
Billy, food challenges?

Speaker 1 You would never do one of your food challenges again. They were not fun.

Speaker 4 No, I would do them just like not having dudes fart right next to me the whole time.

Speaker 1 You farted. You farted so far.

Speaker 4 Yeah, that was like that was you.

Speaker 1 Video coming out soon.

Speaker 1 Video is coming out soon.

Speaker 4 Cow tipping is fun the first time because you don't understand how hard it is to tip a cow.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 4 Then you figure out and you're like, oh shit, like this isn't casual.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 5 I've never actually done it. I didn't know people actually did that.

Speaker 4 Yeah, well, when you go

Speaker 4 when you go to school in the middle of nowhere and there's just cows.

Speaker 1 Yep.

Speaker 1 Having your team have the number one pick. It is fun once.
I've been going to do it multiple times.

Speaker 5 Yeah, what's that like, Matt?

Speaker 1 The process was great. No, I disagree.
It was fun. Yeah,

Speaker 1 how did it end up? We'll see.

Speaker 1 The rest is still unwritten.

Speaker 1 Riding a roller coaster. No, after one, I get nauseous.
No. No, jeez.
No, I. That's fun, man.
In my prime, I was good with it. It was my freaking nature.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 I could go on the Hulk five times in a row, but you go back a few years later and it's like, after once, I get nauseous. I like roller coasters.
Skydiving. Yeah, I was on it once.

Speaker 1 Billy had getting in a fight.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 1 It's not a terrible pick.

Speaker 4 One time, it's like, oh,

Speaker 1 he got in one fight.

Speaker 4 Like, you know, he got him. Yeah.
And then it's like, oh, like two fights.

Speaker 4 That's not okay.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 4 Three fights, then it's like, has this guy got a problem?

Speaker 1 Yeah. I also had saying to Billy, I'll trust you this time.

Speaker 1 Don't jake like that.

Speaker 1 It was fun once.

Speaker 1 Going rogue on Mount Rushmore? Yes. It was fun the first time.
Fun for all

Speaker 5 the first time. The first time.

Speaker 1 It's like going rogue is something I'll miss very much.

Speaker 5 I'd say crowdsurfing. Crowdsurfing is fun the first time you do it.
And then if you do it anymore, it's just like...

Speaker 4 Then you get molested.

Speaker 5 Yeah, then you're just a crowdsurfing guy. Yeah.
So it's like, hey, I just want everybody to support me.

Speaker 1 What about reading a book? Not like reading the same book twice, but like everyone should just read one book.

Speaker 1 And then you're like, I'm not sure. Reading one book the first time is pretty awesome.
Yeah, but then just be no more reading ever titty fucking okay

Speaker 1 yeah i think tomorrow could be a bad day for me

Speaker 5 there's gonna be a girl out there that's i i literally

Speaker 1 have what

Speaker 1 that's the worst i've ever seen he said it might be a 1-1 pick

Speaker 1 fucking a book yeah it was uh plastic bag what who did you who did you think you were like someone will agree who who did you think was going to agree

Speaker 1 was going to to agree for sure. No.
Wait,

Speaker 1 it's the analogy of if I could duck. Wait, wait, wait, wait.
You're talking about athleticism. Yeah, basically what I, yeah.
Yeah, but that doesn't mean it. I could dream about being in great shape.

Speaker 5 I feel like I'm insane. Did nobody else hear Billy say fucking a book?

Speaker 1 Yeah, he said fucking a book.

Speaker 4 What? The plastic bag lotion.

Speaker 1 What? I missed it. What?

Speaker 1 All right. Next one.

Speaker 1 No, we're done.

Speaker 1 A book? Like Harry Potter? Like a

Speaker 1 hardcover.

Speaker 4 book and

Speaker 4 keep going. Is that not a thing you guys heard of? It's not like a couch?

Speaker 1 No.

Speaker 1 American pie?

Speaker 1 It's not seen.

Speaker 5 Fucking a book.

Speaker 1 All right. All right.
No, keep going.

Speaker 5 Do you mean to say fucking a book?

Speaker 1 Never mind. Okay.

Speaker 5 Which book have you had sex with, Billy?

Speaker 6 No, it's just.

Speaker 1 Was it Rolled Doll?

Speaker 4 It's like a couch.

Speaker 4 You never heard about that?

Speaker 1 Like paper cuts are a thing. Yeah, what?

Speaker 4 No. I said plastic bag.

Speaker 1 Wait, so you do a plastic bag inside of a book?

Speaker 4 Plastic bag

Speaker 4 filled with lotion.

Speaker 1 Inside of a book. So you're just shutting a book on your dick?

Speaker 1 Yeah, that's what it sounds like. Repeatedly?

Speaker 1 Yeah, it's like a colonial fleshlight. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 1 Okay. It's selling funny.
We don't kink shame. We don't kink shame.
Look, it

Speaker 1 happens. I mean, Jake, you guys happen.
You've never heard about this thing?

Speaker 5 Jake is Mr. Positions.
Jake, have you ever heard of this? Mr.

Speaker 1 Positions.

Speaker 1 No, I've spoken enough about things outside of

Speaker 1 Mr. Positions.

Speaker 4 Fucking a couch?

Speaker 4 Like between the mattresses.

Speaker 1 Okay, you know what, Billy? Have you guys never heard of this?

Speaker 5 Billy, just go off. Tell me all the things that you fucked.

Speaker 8 Yeah, what else we got? A frog.

Speaker 1 It was fun multiple times. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 1 Should we get to the end of the show?

Speaker 5 I think that we should get to the end.

Speaker 1 No.

Speaker 4 Sorry. Make it go forever.

Speaker 1 Breaking moves before we do our hurder injured for the entire week.

Speaker 1 The Hall of Fame game

Speaker 1 has been delayed.

Speaker 1 The Hall of Fame game has been delayed because the lights went out. Oh, no way.
Yes.

Speaker 1 I just looked at the score because I was like, we need four more points. It says delayed.
And then I pulled it up and the lights are out.

Speaker 5 It's classic Belichick. Acres back.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 1 Morgan and Morgan, wonderful sponsor. We're going to do Hurd or Injured instead of Firefest this week, where it's basically the same thing.
We're just going to air everything that happened.

Speaker 1 Jake's going to keep a record of it on the board.

Speaker 1 So who would like to start, Hank?

Speaker 1 Yeah, can I just rattle him off? Yeah, go for it.

Speaker 1 All right.

Speaker 1 Well, I'll start with it

Speaker 1 before we get into Great Week. I just got a bill for a lot of money because I still haven't returned my cable boxes.

Speaker 1 They're at our old office in the studio, and I don't know how I'm going to return them.

Speaker 5 Yeah, those are gone.

Speaker 5 You don't really have to return cable boxes.

Speaker 1 Yeah, they're just going going to charge me like $500. I'll just

Speaker 1 for

Speaker 1 $200. I'll give you $100.
Oh, perfect. I'll do it.
That's a hell of a negotiation, Michael. You're right there.

Speaker 1 All right. Great week.
Started off, Big Cat and PFD banished me from eating breakfast. That was a huge point of contention.
Wrong. But Asterix Next.
Secondly. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

Speaker 1 You just did Asterisk.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Banning breakfast.
Banished me from breakfast. Hank, the last two days, what did you do on your own volition as a 30-year-old? Yeah, because you, like, Dobbies, you gave me a sock.

Speaker 1 You let let me go get breakfast on my own. I had to ask for permission.
What? See that? Harry Potter.

Speaker 1 Dobbies. I'm a free elf.

Speaker 5 Dobby.

Speaker 1 Dobby. Gobby is a free elf.
Dolby.

Speaker 1 You are a grown-ass man. Now that you, yeah, you said you're allowed to get breakfast.
I said, thank you. Thank you.

Speaker 1 So it should actually say Big Cat and Father. Finally, finally allowed.
He and me. Running out of real estate.
Or running out of real estate.

Speaker 1 Write it down. Taught him how to get breakfast.
Don't, don't, don't. I will write it down on her mind.

Speaker 5 I just don't understand you sometimes, Hank.

Speaker 5 There was breakfast, and you didn't eat it, and then you were like, I'm being held hostage because I wasn't allowed to eat breakfast.

Speaker 1 Then, moving on,

Speaker 1 you two who have your entire lives filmed, we've been doing this show for forever. I used to do the social media, I used to do videotaping and filming stuff on my phone.

Speaker 1 I decided to create some extra content on the side, trying to bring a little behind-the-scenes angle to the people. Oh, four-part of my take?

Speaker 1 Yeah, or for you. It gets posted.
It was an adventure. Where did it get posted?

Speaker 1 It's literally an ad for a part of my take. Course, I checked the Instagram page.
Memes did that.

Speaker 5 Where were you posting it?

Speaker 1 I was posting on TikTok and we were repurposing it on part of my takes. Do you ever think that? Which is what you guys do on your Twitters.

Speaker 1 It's not like all your fucking tweets and all your clips get posted just on part of my tape. Do you ever think that you post them on your shit and then they get posted on part of my take?

Speaker 1 Do you ever think that first sentence said that PST and I get our entire lives filmed? Maybe just ask the guys who are in the fishbowl if they wanted to.

Speaker 1 I'm in the fishbowl. No, but just ask the guys if they're in the fishbow.

Speaker 1 But

Speaker 1 you take yourself out of the fishbowl.

Speaker 1 What about you?

Speaker 1 You filmed me all yeah yeah for i had one clip of max was trying to me when you're tit flapped max was trying to catch some routes and you filmed them like it's it's all they got all the cameras rules for thee and not for me i opened my door one day out of my out of my room at eight in the morning and hank was standing across the hall with his fucking camera well you were making the most noise in the world i was like who the fuck is causing a commotion outside oh it's big cat obviously maybe you just have some guys in their feelings but again i just try and create a little little content for the awls they care about that i liked them and i I just got, I've gotten chastised every time I take a camera out.

Speaker 1 I get flipped off. I get kicked in the nuts.

Speaker 1 PFC asked everyone.

Speaker 1 And then you guys, keep going, Jake. I told the guys off the camera that I quit weed.
Didn't think it was going to be brought on the camera. You guys blew up my spot on the podcast.
And then

Speaker 1 we didn't greet. No, no, no, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

Speaker 1 No, but I got to take this one at a time.

Speaker 5 I have to take this one accusation at a time, hang.

Speaker 1 That's not an accusation.

Speaker 1 In a moment, like, you guys are supposed to be my close friends, and in a moment of vulnerability, I'm like, hey, guys, I'm going through something. You're getting something.

Speaker 5 You're getting mad that we said that you were quitting weed on the podcast.

Speaker 1 And roasting me, being like, you shouldn't quit weed, you fucking pussy. Like, it's something I've been going through, and you guys are chastising me.
I don't think that's what I'm saying. And then

Speaker 1 on weed, and then, and then,

Speaker 1 and then, at the meet and greet, every single person that came up, PFD, was like, you got any drugs for Hank? You got any drugs for Hank? You got any drugs for Hank?

Speaker 1 So it's like, I'm like, I can't, I can't be vulnerable with the people that I'm supposed to be the closest with.

Speaker 5 And that's a problem. Factor fiction.
You took that joint from me, though.

Speaker 1 I haven't smoked it. And then I gave it to you, and then you forced it back on me.
I didn't.

Speaker 1 I gave it to you. Fact of fiction.

Speaker 5 You gave it to me. And then later you came up and you're like, hey, you got that joint?

Speaker 1 No, no. Is that your fiction? No, no, no.
That's fiction. Okay.
That is fiction. You just walked up to me and dinner.

Speaker 5 You need to start smoking weed again.

Speaker 1 Again, this is where it's like.

Speaker 5 Very badly.

Speaker 1 No. Okay.

Speaker 4 Weed lowers tea.

Speaker 1 All right. Is that it, Hank?

Speaker 1 Sounds like you had a good week.

Speaker 1 Yeah, it.

Speaker 1 Okay, PFT. I'm coughing tomorrow.
Nice.

Speaker 5 I had a great week with my friends. Yeah.
My only real complaint was that Hank did put my tiny suitcase out there again. Roasted that on his TikTok.

Speaker 1 Whose fault is that you have the world's smallest suitcase? Yeah. I have lunch boxes bigger than your suitcase.

Speaker 5 It's a great suitcase. It's perfect for a road trip.

Speaker 1 Perfect for one pair of socks.

Speaker 5 No, it's great. It's a great suitcase, and Hank just finds himself, all you do is hate, hate, hate, hate, hate.

Speaker 1 No, I just think it's a fun little thing. It's like, again, like, I'm just a documentarian, and you just happen to have the world's smallest suitcase.

Speaker 5 I have a tiny suitcase.

Speaker 1 If you had a big suitcase, I'd be like, look, maybe if he's a big suitcase, it's bigger than him. He's so small.

Speaker 5 Like, you have a small suitcase. You know why I carry the small suitcase?

Speaker 1 To make you feel bigger. I know.
I get it.

Speaker 5 No, well, that's fucked up, Hank, because that's not what I was going to say at all. Damn, fuck.
I was going to say to leave more room for my friend's suitcases.

Speaker 1 What?

Speaker 5 When we pack stuff up into a car, I take up a small amount of space with my luggage.

Speaker 1 Very nice of you. Oh, thank you.
Consider it. Tiny clothes.
I do have tiny clothes.

Speaker 5 I got these itty-bitty mediums.

Speaker 1 Tiny shoes.

Speaker 5 No, my shoes are perfectly good size, actually.

Speaker 1 Okay, is that it?

Speaker 5 Yeah, I didn't really have anything to complain about. I really enjoyed this trip with my friends.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 It was a good time. I had a great time on this trip, too.

Speaker 1 Oh, Big Cat made a TikTok also just fake news. Said I can't kick, said I can't catch.

Speaker 1 Put his fingers in my skin. Sacrificion, I did not say you can't kick.
I can't throw. Yeah, I said you can't throw.
You can't throw. You can't kick it back to us every time.

Speaker 1 No, I had a great time with...

Speaker 1 I actually didn't care about Hank doing the TikToks. I liked trolling him and going demon time on him on Wednesday.
People loved it. It was funny.
And I also righted all my wrongs.

Speaker 1 I bought you another coffee. He's doing it again.
He's TikToking again.

Speaker 1 Let's see. What else?

Speaker 1 Well, memes posted a video of me

Speaker 1 fattest I've ever looked.

Speaker 1 I look like

Speaker 1 is this mine or yours? I'm sorry. Okay.

Speaker 1 I look like a raccoon eating trash underneath a porch, and he just shined the light on me.

Speaker 1 That was tough. I'm going to go on a diet on Monday.
People were roasting me, too, for saying I'm going to go on a diet on Monday, starting on a Thursday.

Speaker 1 Me too. Yeah, Max and I are both.
Yeah, because I also saw...

Speaker 5 You can't start a diet on a Monday.

Speaker 1 On a Thursday, right. It was football back.
Also, I saw Max's nipple, and that was.

Speaker 1 Did you want to find out? That's my number one guy. I did.
All right, hold on. We're going to get to you.
I would kiddie fuck.

Speaker 1 Paintball got pretty heated, but again, that was something something that got put in the past like 20 minutes later, so that's good. I'm trying to think what else.

Speaker 1 Yeah, so memes just doing that was really, really bad.

Speaker 1 I looked. I actually puked a little in my own throat when I saw myself.
But I'm used to taking L's in that manner, so just another one, put it on the board.

Speaker 5 Memes had a tough week. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Very tough week.

Speaker 5 Memes had a real tough. The Nate Diaz thing to mix up with that.
He's been

Speaker 5 the dishwasher. He's been posting memes of NFL footballs, and they're the wrong football.
They're the football from like three seasons ago, not the current one.

Speaker 5 So, we've got them on a performance improvement plan.

Speaker 5 He still hasn't gotten the lottery ball.

Speaker 1 Jake put this down. I had to teach my 30-year-old son how to order breakfast, which was crazy to me, but guess what? That's why I'm here for him.

Speaker 1 Let's see. Oh, when we were walking into the meet and greet, Jake said, oh, think about the germs, and I wanted to punch him through his skull.

Speaker 1 No, what? No, that's exactly how you said it. There could be a lot of germs.
My rage just filled so long,

Speaker 1 so large, I wanted to just, I wanted to rage quit.

Speaker 1 Didn't hold me back.

Speaker 10 I still dapped up all the AWLs.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I know, but just saying, oh, think about the germs made me want to just.

Speaker 5 A group hurter injured the Josh Allen thing.

Speaker 1 Yeah, Josh Allen.

Speaker 5 The room 40. That's bad.
That was tough.

Speaker 5 Immature on his part, though.

Speaker 1 Oh, also, last thing when we walked into the interview today, Billy actually was doing a very nice thing. Handed me a Corslet polo, but he handed me a medium.

Speaker 1 I put it on, and I thought I was going to die.

Speaker 1 That was not Billy's fault. That was my own fault.
Again, the fat thing.

Speaker 1 So, yeah,

Speaker 1 we're going to go back on the diet.

Speaker 5 Oh, there was one Fire Fest this week. I don't know if anybody was behind me when we were walking out of Bill's camp.
There was a kid.

Speaker 5 There was like a six-year-old kid that was reaching over the railing, trying to get high fives from everybody that was walking off the field. He was a big Bills fan.

Speaker 5 Big Cat walks off in front of me, and the six-year-old has his hand out to get dapped up. Big Cat goes up there.
hits him with a clean high five.

Speaker 5 Then I go up to follow Big Cat up, go for the high five, and this six-year-old pulls his hand back.

Speaker 5 I got fucking roasted by a six-year-old exiting Bill's camp. That's tough.
Put that one on the list, Jake.

Speaker 1 Yeah, that's tough. That's tough.
But yeah, overall, I do love Grit Week. The bickering, the back and forth.

Speaker 1 It's the best. It is fun because none of it is serious, except Hank not ordering breakfast.
That was serious.

Speaker 1 And also the Jake commenting about the germs. That was also serious.
But everything else is just

Speaker 1 whatever.

Speaker 1 And I love you guys. I love hanging out with you guys.
All right, Billy.

Speaker 4 I love you guys too.

Speaker 1 Real hurt.

Speaker 4 Took a shower before bed. Put the thermostat way down.
Water rose from the floor of the bathroom. 3 a.m.
Went to take a piss. Walked into the bathroom.
Slipped on the water from the shower. Ass down.

Speaker 4 Took a bad crack.

Speaker 1 Ooh.

Speaker 4 Fell asleep. for 20 minutes on the bathroom floor.
She's like, I can't get up right now.

Speaker 1 Oh, no. What? That's bad.

Speaker 4 Got up and uh blackout activities. Went back to bed.

Speaker 1 Oh, I forgot one real quick because it's just you talking, maybe remember it.

Speaker 1 All the welts we have for paintball when Billy shot us from two feet away. And then was like, I just didn't get shot.
Go ahead. Yeah, well, we can't.
Yeah,

Speaker 1 I have paintball firefest too, but no spoilers. No spoilers, no spoilers.

Speaker 4 Getting out maneuvered.

Speaker 4 You know, there was, there was a flight.

Speaker 1 There was a lot of flanking. One rule: 10 feet or less, do not shoot.
Those are child rules.

Speaker 1 Billy J. Jump through a plane.
All right, no spoilers, no spoilers. All right.

Speaker 7 Ego hurt paintball.

Speaker 1 Okay. No, spoilers.
No, that's not. That's people can be anything.

Speaker 5 That's very deduced.

Speaker 5 Yeah, if you've ever listened to this show, you're probably thinking to yourself, what was Billy like at a paintball tournament?

Speaker 1 And you are 100% correct in thinking about what Billy was like playing paintball. Berserker mode.

Speaker 1 No one had a chance. Okay.

Speaker 1 Correct.

Speaker 5 Fact check to be determined. Yes.

Speaker 1 And yeah.

Speaker 5 Do you have a real fire fest, Billy?

Speaker 7 Or a goodbye? No, it's.

Speaker 1 Well, we'll do the goodbye at the very end.

Speaker 4 That's the big one.

Speaker 1 Okay, all right. We have two more things we got to do.
We got to do Jake. I want to hear Max.
I need a P. All right.
Jake? Billy's just going to leave and come back.

Speaker 1 Yeah, no spoilers, but I have my biggest regret in my history. I'm part of my take from paintball.
Your biggest regret? Yeah, there's only two times where he doesn't regret it.

Speaker 1 I saw the fire in his eyes last year. Oh, wait, what was your other regret?

Speaker 1 My last regret when I accidentally went live for Billy's Way-In on my account instead of the part of my take when I remember you were mad.

Speaker 5 Oh, yeah, that's

Speaker 1 what about

Speaker 1 me. I don't even remember.
I don't remember. That's the memory that sticks out as you being mad at me.
And then this one from Paintball was one of you guys being mad at me.

Speaker 1 I don't even remember you doing that. Yeah.

Speaker 1 What about when you fell asleep during the grit stream?

Speaker 5 No, I didn't.

Speaker 1 Yeah, good point, Heck. What about the Mountain Rush More of Blue Things?

Speaker 1 No. Oh.
Oh. Oh.
Oh.

Speaker 1 I was confusing that with red things for Poor's Light. Okay.

Speaker 1 But yeah, subscribe. YouTube.
All right, wait, is that it? Yeah, I've been losing sleep over that since Tuesday.

Speaker 1 Damn. Yeah.
That's tough. That makes me feel bad.

Speaker 1 No, no, no. You shouldn't feel bad.
No spoilers, but it's a Hanks. No spoilers.
Fredo Marsh. Yeah.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 It's going to be a great moment. You've been losing sleep over that?

Speaker 1 Not like literally, but like. Touchdown.
It's definitely been taking up. touchdown over.
Over, let's go. We're back.
Lights are back.

Speaker 1 We're back.

Speaker 5 I had a bunch of losers. Oh, I was saying, don't take the R.

Speaker 1 When one of you guys get mad at me, I feel like

Speaker 1 you know that no one gets mad at you for that long. Like, that's like the whole speech I gave at the beginning.
I'm just like,

Speaker 1 it's a 20-minute

Speaker 1 quick, mad, and everything. I'm a perfectionist.

Speaker 1 That was in between the lines. Right.
It happened on the battlefield. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 1 I just

Speaker 1 try to strive for perfection.

Speaker 1 Oh, yeah, and Shot of a Lifetime. Shot of a Lifetime.
That was technically on the day zero of Grit Week. That's true.
Okay, Max, what are yours? I'll be really quick.

Speaker 1 Memes and Shane, our graphics guy, are a bunch of assholes for starting a false rumor about me.

Speaker 5 What was that rumor?

Speaker 1 Don't worry about it.

Speaker 5 Oh, was that the one where you're the

Speaker 5 Long Island Foot Fucker?

Speaker 1 Yeah, no, that was not me. It looked just like you.
Yeah, well, that's because Shane did AI and made the person look like me. And then Memes memes got like five million views on the tweet.

Speaker 1 You're welcome, memes. Piece of shit.

Speaker 1 Billy ripped my shirt, made fun of the quality of my t-shirts. My favorite shirt.

Speaker 1 Your favorite shirt. Good shirt.
My mom already called me and said she's going to buy me a new one. Oh, that was nice.
It was very nice of her. Even after

Speaker 4 make sure it's better quality. Yep.

Speaker 1 That'll probably be the same quality. And last one, Big Cat just loves calling me fat.
Well, no, you are fat, and I am fat, too, and we're going to go on a diet together. That's true.

Speaker 1 I'm going to be so ripped. Everyone gets ripped.
Like, we're both fat. Chicago.
We're going to get, yeah, we're going to get in shape. Yeah, yeah.
Together. Should we do it? We'll do accountability.

Speaker 1 Right. Send each other our weights every morning.
Right. And no, I want to.

Speaker 1 Let me start with the treadmill.

Speaker 1 Fuck you. Okay.
See, this is why we got to stay together. Who weighs more? Me by a lot.

Speaker 1 How much you weigh? Oh, dude. We don't need to worry about it.

Speaker 4 Like, are you over 220?

Speaker 1 That was actually very nice of you.

Speaker 1 Sweet.

Speaker 1 I've been in 220 since like the eighth grade. 220 is my dream week.

Speaker 1 Oh, so you're over 220? Perfect for a fight. Oh,

Speaker 1 the people would love it. All right, Billy, do your sign off.
No, wait, before we do that, one of my favorite things that we get to do every time we go on a trip together, we hire a sound guy.

Speaker 1 This week we had Matt with us. He was great.
And we got it. We do every year with the sound guy, whether it be Super Bowl week or grit week.
Matt, we we just need your thoughts on all of this.

Speaker 1 You got to watch it front row. You got thrust into this.
Did you know who we were before this?

Speaker 1 I got a scar from our Super Bowl guy. Matt's got a great laugh, too.
Thanks. Yeah, it's been a great time, man.

Speaker 4 You guys were a ton of fun. And this was kind of crazy.

Speaker 1 Did you know who we were? Yeah. Okay.
All right. Yeah, yeah.
Okay.

Speaker 5 Whose side did you take in the big breakfast debacle?

Speaker 1 Oh, man.

Speaker 1 That's tough. Oh, don't give me the puppy dog, guys.

Speaker 1 Puppy dog guys.

Speaker 1 I don't know, man. Plead the fifth.
Was there ever a moment where you're like, are these guys going to end the podcast right here? Because they're yelling at each other so much. Yeah.

Speaker 1 You know how some stuff was going to go. Yeah.
Pink Paul was fun. Yeah.
It was a lot of fun. So you had a good time? Great time.
Okay.

Speaker 4 What was your favorite sound?

Speaker 1 Oh, I don't want to spoil anything. Yeah.

Speaker 10 I think they'll find a video later where my favorite sound will be revealed.

Speaker 1 Yes.

Speaker 1 Matt, the sound guy, basically. I know what it is.
He had to go. He basically was tortured for one of the videos and had to take his headphones off at one point.

Speaker 5 Oh, as a sound professional, have you ever heard anything like Hank's yawns?

Speaker 1 I don't think I heard ya. I don't know if I've heard Hank's yawns.
Give him one, give me one.

Speaker 1 One of my fucking YouTube.

Speaker 5 Maybe you stopped yawning like a man.

Speaker 1 I can't yawn on him.

Speaker 1 All right, so overall, good week. Overall, great week.
Well, we had fun with you, Matt. Thank you so much.
You were great. Your laugh was infectious.
It was good. Great laughs.

Speaker 1 Okay, Billy.

Speaker 1 We love you, Billy. We love you, Billy.

Speaker 4 It's in here.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 5 It's in there. Just a little something to remember us by.

Speaker 1 He's a hole.

Speaker 4 Oh, my God.

Speaker 1 Yeah, what is it, Billy? Explain it to the people. He's an in the family.
Um,

Speaker 1 it's

Speaker 4 it's it's uh some it looks like Gray Day Angus.

Speaker 5 It's a lot of meat. It's a lot of meat.
We got you

Speaker 1 a bunch of meat. What time is your flight? 6 a.m.

Speaker 4 This is amazing.

Speaker 5 Yeah.

Speaker 5 Have fun getting that home.

Speaker 1 No, you just bought meat for yourself. Oh,

Speaker 5 you're flying, so you probably have a grill.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Yeah,

Speaker 1 I got two freezers.

Speaker 4 All right.

Speaker 1 Um, I

Speaker 4 I don't do well in these moments.

Speaker 5 Yeah. You said that you wrote 3,000 words.

Speaker 4 Before this

Speaker 1 blog's coming out Friday.

Speaker 4 At some point. It's coming out.
Just needs to be read through real quick.

Speaker 4 Check it out. It'll be on my Twitter at Billy Hot Ticks.

Speaker 1 It'll be on Hank's TikTok as well. Yeah.

Speaker 4 No, but seriously, I...

Speaker 4 This whole thing has been such a ride, for lack of a better term.

Speaker 4 You guys are a trip in yourself you guys have been so successful in what you've been doing when I first I was I was such a huge fan I was 18 listening you guys in the car I saw Hank put out a tweet looking for New York City based interns and it's crazy that sort of the thing that got me in is also sort of a big part of why I have to leave

Speaker 4 We were looking through some of the old email conversations with Hank and I when it first happened We found my own resume It will be in the blog.

Speaker 1 Check it out. Yeah.
You

Speaker 1 thread a soul. Hank did tell us before we even interviewed you.
He's like, I found the guy. Like, just sit down with him for a minute, but he's the guy.
And that, and you were the guy.

Speaker 1 It was like seven sheets stapled together.

Speaker 5 He had a link to his high school highlight tape that was like printed out on his resume.

Speaker 1 I found his first email, and he said, I can do Photoshop.

Speaker 4 I did take, I did take a Photoshop class.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 4 I wasn't proficient, but

Speaker 1 made me laugh.

Speaker 4 No, but I mean

Speaker 1 the whole

Speaker 4 this whole it's been like a

Speaker 4 it's been like a dream and a dream and in this everything's been so crazy. I feel like Forrest Gump a lot, just like ending up in crazy situations.
And I mean, you guys have had so much success.

Speaker 4 You guys are so talented, and it's been amazing watching, you know, from a first-hand point of view, everything that you guys have accomplished.

Speaker 4 And I have no doubt that you guys are going to do amazing in Chicago.

Speaker 4 New guys, memes, Max, you're going to have an amazing success here. I wish you all the best.

Speaker 1 Shout out, Shane. Shane.

Speaker 1 She just watches it.

Speaker 1 It's literally standing in between memes and

Speaker 1 Jake. Jake, of course.

Speaker 4 I mean, you guys are going to have a great thing going here in Chicago. I have, I wish all the best.

Speaker 4 It I mean, the thing is, a lot of people are asking, like, what the fuck are you doing? Why are you leaving?

Speaker 4 Unfortunately, you know, people have circumstances at home that you kind of can't leave sometimes.

Speaker 4 You know,

Speaker 4 it's hard to really explain, you know, air dirty laundry about your family, but you know, I gotta stay home.

Speaker 1 Um,

Speaker 1 But,

Speaker 4 you know, moving forward,

Speaker 4 I'm going to be,

Speaker 4 even though not being with you guys is going to suck and, you know, from a career standpoint,

Speaker 4 like, you guys are the shit.

Speaker 1 Thank you, Billy. Billy, I love you.

Speaker 5 You've made me laugh so many times on this show.

Speaker 5 Sometimes intentionally, sometimes unintentionally. But it's been awesome having you.
We're going to miss you.

Speaker 5 But you'll be around occasionally. Yes.
You can follow Barstool's Sports, and Billy will still be working for Barstool Sports.

Speaker 1 And if there's another pandemic, you'll probably find your way back. Yes.

Speaker 1 I love you too, Billy.

Speaker 1 You're special. And I mean that in the best way.

Speaker 1 Your brain works in a special way, and unique brains always make me laugh.

Speaker 5 It would be very funny if the Jets got really, really good and won a Super Bowl and Billy couldn't come along to do it.

Speaker 1 It's too bad. Tell us that he feels bad for us now.
No, but Billy, you're talented in your own right, and

Speaker 1 you are a hard worker. And

Speaker 1 it's like what I said at the beginning of this show.

Speaker 1 All the mini beefs and fights, like, they all don't matter because you were a man in the arena. You were part of this, and so we always love you.
I've had,

Speaker 4 you know, I've had a huge...

Speaker 4 This show has been probably the biggest impact on my life ever. And when I was 18 years old and we were working, you know, I was interning, I had no idea how any of this would turn out.

Speaker 4 And, you know, for a long time, I'm gonna be honest, there was a time after I was an intern the first time, you know, dealing with college football for the first time, it was held against me a lot.

Speaker 4 And that sort of, there was a point where I was just like, fuck, like, sometimes

Speaker 4 I don't think that now, but sometimes it's like, I wish I never did this because it's seriously impacting me being able to get on the field, play.

Speaker 4 It was a much different landscape when it came to social media, NIL stuff. Like, if

Speaker 4 the NIL stuff now was going on back in 2017, and like, I would have been able to continue to keep touch, but I got kicked off the team after you guys came to visit. And I just,

Speaker 4 the only reason I want to give that context is because

Speaker 1 it was,

Speaker 4 I was like, no one really ever tells you how to deal with any of this stuff. And I'm not trying to make myself seem like a victim or anything, but I,

Speaker 4 when I came back, i i like i love this show but there was a time where i literally couldn't interact with you guys i don't know i don't know what i'm trying to say here but i'm just i just want you guys to know that this has been such a wild ride and on so many ups and downs and

Speaker 4 i i don't know how to describe how much i owe to you guys for what you've done for me and i thank you guys so much um

Speaker 1 you were an 18 when you started i was 19 when i started i a lot a lot of the stuff that you went through reminded me of stuff that I went through working at Barstool.

Speaker 1 And I think it's easy from the outside to criticize and be like, oh,

Speaker 1 Billy's such an idiot.

Speaker 1 Why doesn't he do this? Why doesn't he do that? And no one understands that. Pretty much 99% of

Speaker 1 the fans and the people listening, if they were in your shoes, they would not be able to do and contribute the way you've contributed.

Speaker 4 I also just want to apologize for any times I seemed ungrateful, any times I've I've been difficult, I know that, but you know,

Speaker 4 hopefully one day

Speaker 4 it's going to help me become the person that I want to be. And, you know, I'm going to keep working for Barstool.

Speaker 4 I'm going to try to, you know, create content because you guys,

Speaker 4 I mean, talking about coaching trees, like, I hope to one day to become half as good as what you guys do. in the thing because you guys

Speaker 4 you revolutionize the game the whole media

Speaker 5 landscape you've uh you have had a very unique life like from from the age of 17 uh it's it's a one of a kind that you know in in the short time that we've known you you've done some wild shit like you've done you knocked out jose canseco

Speaker 5 that's that's pretty wild

Speaker 5 you did i'll i'll admit it you did oscar dalhollea has said you got him on the side of the head knocked him out i mean

Speaker 1 i i cannot wait to see what you guys ran out you ran a marathon yeah you ran a marathon on treadmill light work. Yeah, Billy,

Speaker 1 everything you said is right. I mean, and what Hank was saying, like,

Speaker 1 it was what I just said, the man in the arena. You were part of this.
You'll always be part of it.

Speaker 1 So thank you, Billy. We do love you.
And we'll see you at some point. See you at some point.

Speaker 4 I'll be back pretty soon.

Speaker 1 Yeah, pandemic.

Speaker 4 I mean, the Great Lakes region is an amazing place for a pandemic. The fresh water, it's like, it's probably the most valuable land on earth.

Speaker 4 No, no, but seriously, the fresh water source, if there was like a serious situation, I think

Speaker 4 we should bunk up. I mean, if we had to do a bunker.

Speaker 1 Memes memes just got $60.

Speaker 1 Lovely, Billy. 18.

Speaker 1 Love you, Bill.

Speaker 4 What a rod.

Speaker 4 Jake's been such a, I have to shout out Jake because Jake has been like, I've gone to Jake for everything when I need help

Speaker 4 with the organization.

Speaker 1 90% of our texts are, what time are we recording tonight?

Speaker 5 One thing, you know what? It's not going to be the same on Sundays in the part of my take group chat without Billy being like, what's for dinner?

Speaker 1 What's for dinner at 9 a.m.

Speaker 1 When Max was setting up this show, we had an extra mic, but we were like, no, we got to share one mic on the couch one last time. Last week.
Love it.

Speaker 4 I would never want to share a mic with somebody else, Jake.

Speaker 1 Oh, no. Me too.
What about Joe Rogan?

Speaker 4 He'd give me a mic.

Speaker 1 All right.

Speaker 1 What are the numbers? 21. 8.

Speaker 5 Yeah, Billy. Go for it.

Speaker 4 Love you guys.

Speaker 4 All humans are animals. If you're ever feeling down, look for the animal within you.

Speaker 1 Oh, yes.

Speaker 1 Good job, Billy. Don't get away.
