Speaker 1 Hey, pardon my take, listeners.

Speaker 3 You can find every episode on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or YouTube.

Speaker 8 Prime members can listen ad-free on Amazon Music.

Speaker 9 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 9 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 9 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 9 Snickers satisfies, man. That's a winning play.

Speaker 1 On today's part of my take, we're doing a podcast from a hole.

Speaker 14 First ever podcast from a hole.

Speaker 15 We have a great show for everyone.

Speaker 16 Besides no jumper.

Speaker 19 Besides no jumper, we were at Bill's Camp

Speaker 21 yesterday.

Speaker 17 We have Josh Allen, Sean McDermott on the show.

Speaker 25 Great interviews with both those guys.

Speaker 6 We have Grit Week Day Three,

Speaker 5 Hot Sea, Cool Throne, Mount Rushmore of Goats.

Speaker 15 Very open-ended.

Speaker 30 And we're doing it all from a hole.

Speaker 32 And 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 33 At participating McDonald's.

Speaker 34 Okay, let's go.

Speaker 34 Down in this street, there is violence,

Speaker 34 and there's lots of work to be done. All the nose I forgot to walk in.
No place to hang at the washing.

Speaker 34 And you can't blame me, all I'm the sun. But let them know we got no back on to let check on my new.

Speaker 34 And if

Speaker 1 Welcome to part of my take.

Speaker 15 Today is Wednesday, August 2nd, Grit Week presented by Coors Light, and we are podcasting from a hole, the first ever podcast from a hole.

Speaker 17 We're in Sandusky, Ohio, inside of a hole.

Speaker 17 If there's ever a time to subscribe and watch the show on YouTube, it'd be this episode.

Speaker 16 Low Man Wins.

Speaker 41 Perfect for Grit Week, right?

Speaker 16 Yeah. No one's ever done a lower podcast than this before.
Yes, it is.

Speaker 16 It's kind of like we're in a coffin simulator. I think we're about six feet underground right now, and it's awesome.
Just chilling a hole with the boys.

Speaker 42 It is

Speaker 31 below sea level.

Speaker 14 We are below sea level.

Speaker 42 It is

Speaker 43 one of the dumbest things we've ever done.

Speaker 15 For people who are maybe new to the show, who are maybe Bills fans are showing up for this episode.

Speaker 37 We had the idea about a year ago because we had a,

Speaker 2 what was a Monday reading?

Speaker 17 A dude, a girlfriend wrote that her boyfriend was just digging a hole in their backyard every weekend and she was concerned.

Speaker 16 I think he was actually sneaking away to dig a hole.

Speaker 14 To dig a hole.

Speaker 16 He had a field somewhere else. Like some guys have a second apartment that they take their ladies to.
He had a second piece of land that he just went out to and dug all the time.

Speaker 14 Yeah, so we're like, oh, we should dig a hole.

Speaker 53 And then time passed, as it always does.

Speaker 43 And we got to this moment and we're like, fuck, we have to dig a hole.

Speaker 55 And we got out here.

Speaker 30 Mission accomplished.

Speaker 54 And we dug a hole.

Speaker 22 And now we're podcasting from our hole.

Speaker 16 And Jake ate a worm today.

Speaker 6 And Jake ate a worm today.

Speaker 56 I love that worm.

Speaker 57 That video, which will be coming out soon.

Speaker 16 Jake did ask us, he's like, should I kill the worm first before I eat it?

Speaker 58 Yeah.

Speaker 35 He's like, is it going to cut? What if I poop it out?

Speaker 11 It went down just like my allergy medicine.

Speaker 24 Jake, can you please sit back in the hole for us?

Speaker 57 And I mean, you've been sitting in the hole all day, and the noises you make,

Speaker 7 you're chewing your head.

Speaker 16 He's not going to do it.

Speaker 8 Just maybe maybe stand for a minute and then just sit without telling us.

Speaker 59 I won't get in front of the cameras.

Speaker 55 Yeah, don't get in front of the cameras.

Speaker 37 Should we talk about MLB trade deadline?

Speaker 16 Yeah, I mean, the Mets basically gave up.

Speaker 61 The Mets tapped out.

Speaker 22 The Mets.

Speaker 43 The Mets are quite a funny organization because, if I remember correctly, we have a lot of Mets fans in our lives.

Speaker 17 And when they sign Justin Verlander, they're like, it's World Series time. Max Scherzer, Justin Verlander.

Speaker 7 Who could stop us?

Speaker 17 And now they're celebrating August 1st, trading Justin Verlander to the Houston Astros, back home to the Houston Astros.

Speaker 17 And yeah, the Mets, I guess, are back into a rebuild.

Speaker 5 I don't even know. Big rebuild.

Speaker 16 So I actually saw this article. It came out on the Athletic just a couple of minutes ago.
I should write an Athletic Premium Plus article about this, but this is a real article.

Speaker 62 I'm going to sit back real quick.

Speaker 16 Max Scherzer

Speaker 16 talking to the front office. He said, I talked to Billy.
Scherzer told the athletic. I was like, okay, are we reloading for 2024? He goes, no, we're not.
Basically, our vision now is for 2025, 2026.

Speaker 16 25 at the earliest, more like 26.

Speaker 16 And so Max said, so the team is not going to be pursuing free agents this offseason or a simple team that competes for a World Series next year.

Speaker 16 He said, no, we're not going to be signing the upper echelon guys. We're going to be on the smaller deals within free agency.
24 is looking to be more of a kind of transitory year.

Speaker 16 So they're punting on this season, punting on next, maybe trying to get in in 25. Definitely Mets all in 26

Speaker 16 on this podcast with the first report, Mets World Series Champions 2026. There we go.

Speaker 19 They're ready to go.

Speaker 43 I also have a report from someone inside the Mets organization who contacted me and said, Frank the Tank?

Speaker 23 No.

Speaker 24 I'll never see a Mets playoff game, won't contend for Forba decade.

Speaker 16 Not Frank the Tank.

Speaker 17 Not Frank the Tank.

Speaker 14 He said Forba.

Speaker 16 See? Yeah, Forba Decade. Yeah.

Speaker 40 From NJ Tank.

Speaker 16 Well, he's wrong because they're going to be competing within the short time frame of about three and a half years.

Speaker 19 Yeah, that's way less of a fly-by.

Speaker 22 Yeah.

Speaker 63 It's a new process.

Speaker 22 Yeah, it is a new process.

Speaker 17 It is

Speaker 1 quite something because the Mets did, it felt like they had all the hype going in the offseason.

Speaker 53 I don't know, Max, memes, why don't you come and just tell us what you think?

Speaker 44 Because you are a Mets fan.

Speaker 21 And I would like to see.

Speaker 31 You were in our hole real quick, memes.

Speaker 37 Yeah, you were celebrating.

Speaker 16 There's plenty of room in this hole for you.

Speaker 16 Come on in.

Speaker 2 Stand by me. Here comes memes.

Speaker 66 Should I get in the hole?

Speaker 38 Our top dishwasher.

Speaker 16 Come in this hole, man.

Speaker 67 It's big enough for you.

Speaker 68 Careful.

Speaker 69 Memes has rocked this look all day, and we've had a very fun time just roasting.

Speaker 14 What have you been called today?

Speaker 70 Dishwasher.

Speaker 8 I think I said you look like a Vietnam vet who's seen some shit.

Speaker 16 Somebody said he looks like a lesbian house painter.

Speaker 50 Yep.

Speaker 71 I don't know who said that.

Speaker 72 Quite a look.

Speaker 22 So Mets.

Speaker 73 So Mets, Uncle Stevie, after hearing that report,

Speaker 74 I was in the party, like sell everybody,

Speaker 70 just buy everybody the next year. Like, what's the point of being a rich guy if you can't just buy people?

Speaker 22 Yep.

Speaker 16 Good point. Facts.

Speaker 73 But the sound of that doesn't sound too good.

Speaker 16 What about 2026, memes? That's a long time away.

Speaker 76 Yeah, that's dumb. You're rich.

Speaker 19 Yeah, good point. I'll say it right now.

Speaker 25 2026 is never going to happen.

Speaker 35 In 2026, we'll dig another hole.

Speaker 50 There's going to be AI baseball.

Speaker 11 I'm not going to set a reminder for that.

Speaker 47 Okay.

Speaker 16 Please do, though actually yeah jake remind me to put an off-season future on the mets in uh 2026 february february 2026 yes okay yeah that's that's when we're all in but yeah memes you're talking about get better better value before the winter meetings oh yeah yeah i should do that so i should do like right after right after world series yeah october 31st yeah november 1st 2025.

Speaker 16 okay i'm in um so memes it's tough But at the same time, I think Uncle Stevie's learning the lesson that basically every new owner makes is like they come into the league and they're like, I'm just, I'm rich, I'm gonna buy people, and then it doesn't work out the first time around.

Speaker 70 Yeah, but they're signing people who are a thousand years old.

Speaker 43 Yeah, I love calling them Uncle Stevie because I'm sure there's some Mets fans listening right now that are just cringing at the thought that they actually said that.

Speaker 55 Yeah, like being like, Uncle Stevie's gonna buy us everything.

Speaker 73 Yeah, that's cringe. You can

Speaker 16 always blame the World Baseball Classic, though.

Speaker 58 Yes, it did.

Speaker 70 And Nate Diaz just verbally him the domino

Speaker 76 said it.

Speaker 55 Yeah, wait, Nate Diaz?

Speaker 47 Edwin Edwin Diaz. Edwin.

Speaker 52 I was like, what?

Speaker 84 I was like, I'm ready to go on this journey of Nate Diaz taking down the best.

Speaker 40 I know what he does.

Speaker 6 Nate Diaz would be a good closer.

Speaker 52 Yeah.

Speaker 22 Yeah. Well, I mean, he'd be a healthy body.

Speaker 30 Yeah.

Speaker 19 Okay, so

Speaker 37 we'll see you in 2026, memes.

Speaker 70 No,

Speaker 73 he's going to buy some people.

Speaker 49 Stevie's bad.

Speaker 70 He's going to bust people.

Speaker 86 He's going to buy some people. He's going to buy.

Speaker 47 Yep, I like that. Get Otani.
Okay.

Speaker 70 Even though he's not a free agent. Yeah.

Speaker 60 Yeah, he is. He is? Yep, yeah.

Speaker 6 Get him.

Speaker 6 Okay. Okay.
Yeah, you got it. All right.

Speaker 17 Hop back on your chopper.

Speaker 69 We'll see you later. All right.

Speaker 52 Okay.

Speaker 87 Actually, memes looks...

Speaker 17 He doesn't even look like a guy who's on a chopper. He looks like a guy who's sitting behind a guy on a chopper, holding him softly by the waist.

Speaker 16 Probably like the filmmaker that's getting taken on tour of Vietnam. Yeah.

Speaker 22 All right.

Speaker 87 Other big deals.

Speaker 65 I saw...

Speaker 24 The O's got Jack Flaherty from the Cardinals, so that's good that the Orioles did something.

Speaker 16 O's are all in? Yep.

Speaker 16 All in as the Orioles will ever be.

Speaker 42 All in as the Orioles will ever be.

Speaker 7 I saw there was, who was it from the Tigers denied a trade to the Dodgers, which I don't see very often.

Speaker 16 It was on one of his 10 teams not to be traded to list. That seems like a lot of teams to have on your don't trade me to these teams list.

Speaker 17 That'd be funny if he just like hated Gavin Newsome.

Speaker 47 Yeah. That was why.

Speaker 22 Of Colorado. That was

Speaker 69 Wardo Rodriguez.

Speaker 69 I saw that

Speaker 17 the White Sox were selling a bunch.

Speaker 69 They're back in a reset after it felt like they were ready to contend.

Speaker 30 The Cubs bought a little.

Speaker 16 Yeah, what happened with Mancini? He got DFA'd?

Speaker 1 I think so. I don't know.

Speaker 37 They're doing stuff with rosters because they did trade for a couple guys.

Speaker 16 I love Mancini. Yeah.
Good guy.

Speaker 68 Yeah.

Speaker 30 Hall of Fame guy.

Speaker 36 Better guy than he is. A baseball player.

Speaker 16 Baseball.

Speaker 16 He has never been DFA'd as a human.

Speaker 3 Yeah, and the Phillies got a starter.

Speaker 53 So that's something, Max.

Speaker 75 Sure.

Speaker 19 This is baseball talk, baby.

Speaker 4 Yeah, Michael Lorenzen just learned just learned about it right now.

Speaker 18 Fixed everything. Fixed everything.

Speaker 22 Fixed everything.

Speaker 16 I also heard that the Padres were considering trading Juan Soto. Which would be crazy.
Which would be insane to do. Yes.
Nats won that trade. Fleeced him.

Speaker 16 I told you the day it happened, did I not say fleeced?

Speaker 47 Yes, you did. Fleeced.

Speaker 17 I also learned today, a fun fact, Rich Hill is still in Major League Baseball.

Speaker 91 Legend.

Speaker 18 That was crazy to me.

Speaker 47 Old Money Mountain.

Speaker 5 Yeah, he's been around forever.

Speaker 46 He's going to be playing for, he's the new Jamie Moyer.

Speaker 23 So Rich Hill got traded.

Speaker 51 It's his 13th team. Yeah.

Speaker 47 How old is he?

Speaker 55 He's got to be like 38.

Speaker 22 He has to be.

Speaker 85 He's been everywhere.

Speaker 40 He'll be a great for the,

Speaker 83 what's it?

Speaker 66 The trivia thing that they play? Immaculate Grid.

Speaker 68 There it is. Yeah.

Speaker 68 43 years old.

Speaker 93 43? Holy shit.

Speaker 50 From Milton Tough.

Speaker 67 More than Milton Tough.

Speaker 94 At Milton Tough.

Speaker 2 He is the new Jamie Moyer. 43 is insane.

Speaker 22 Wow. Kids grow up and be

Speaker 2 like a decent major league baseball.

Speaker 11 He's been on four teams the last three years.

Speaker 16 What about your Yankees, Billy? Your Yankees making some big moves? They didn't do anything. Talking to Shovel, Billy.

Speaker 88 They didn't do shit.

Speaker 16 Talking to shovel.

Speaker 38 No, they got

Speaker 1 a right-handed reliever from the White Sox, Kenyon Middleton.

Speaker 11 Yeah, but

Speaker 11 an hour ago, since July 1st, 29 teams have made a trade since July 1st.

Speaker 74 The Yankees are the only one who's ones who didn't.

Speaker 47 Okay, but that has been corrected.

Speaker 58 Yep.

Speaker 17 That has been corrected.

Speaker 92 All right, Jake, sit down.

Speaker 95 You're making me uncomfortable.

Speaker 22 He's not going to make a noise.

Speaker 19 Every time Jake has sat down, he's been making a noise like, oh.

Speaker 96 He did one.

Speaker 71 He did one earlier that was like, oi.

Speaker 19 He sounds like toad.

Speaker 11 You guys should start filming me when I'm about to sit.

Speaker 83 I know. Yeah.

Speaker 11 Yeah. You've got one naturally.

Speaker 58 Great series.

Speaker 16 That's your job, Shane. Shane, you're on Jake's sit cam.

Speaker 94 Yes.

Speaker 38 All right. What else do we have?

Speaker 46 The U.S. women's team sucks.

Speaker 16 Yeah, so we kind of do suck. We tied Portugal.
Unacceptable. Fun fact, they're the only country outside of South America that speaks Brazilian.
So I guess they're probably pretty good at soccer. Yep.

Speaker 16 But the U.S. women's team does not look good at all.
I did wake up. I set an alarm for 3.10 a.m.
Psycho. I opened my eyes, put the game on, and then I fell asleep within probably two minutes.

Speaker 16 And I'm so glad I fell asleep because there was no scoring. It sucked.
And then our only good player got a yellow card, Rose Lavelle. So she's not going to be able to play in the next game.

Speaker 37 And we were saying in the RV earlier that, like, you know what's going bad for women's soccer when we're starting to get like old man takes on them?

Speaker 24 Because they were celebrating after, and it disgusted me.

Speaker 86 It disgusted me, too. It's disgusting.

Speaker 97 Okay.

Speaker 16 Counterpoint, I think it's good for women's soccer that we're firing off these old man takes about their sport, not being like, oh, boring women's soccer.

Speaker 16 It's like, no, you shouldn't be celebrating like that after you tie Portugal 0-0. You only won one game against Vietnam, who you barely even beat by three goals.

Speaker 16 So listen, you haven't won shit yet.

Speaker 47 They're entitled.

Speaker 19 They're entitled babies.

Speaker 16 They are babies. Yeah.
And we mean that as a sign of respect to women's sports.

Speaker 50 We expect more. I do expect more.

Speaker 1 Yeah, no, they're being criticized the way I criticize when the U.S.

Speaker 17 men's team, everyone says this is the golden generation.

Speaker 5 They don't make the fucking tournament.

Speaker 67 They advance, though.

Speaker 97 Who? Yeah. Women.
But you can't

Speaker 47 standards for the women's team. If they win the World Cup, if they win the World Cup,

Speaker 30 if they had any pride.

Speaker 84 If they had any pride, they would rescind their advancement.

Speaker 16 If they win the World Cup, I will be the first to say, congratulations to me for lighting a fire under their baby asses

Speaker 16 and getting their shit together and winning the World Cup.

Speaker 97 That's what I expect from them.

Speaker 17 If I were on that team,

Speaker 17 I'd rescind my invitation to advance.

Speaker 48 Yeah.

Speaker 16 They had any dignity whatsoever. They need to get Hope Solo back in that locker room.
Just smack some people around. They need a little bit of psycho.
They need more dog on that team. Yeah.

Speaker 26 Yeah.

Speaker 98 So I'm disappointed.

Speaker 8 Count me in the disappointed camp for the U.S.

Speaker 17 women's national team.

Speaker 16 And their jerseys stink.

Speaker 93 Do they?

Speaker 83 Yeah, they're not good.

Speaker 16 They're better than men's jerseys, but they still stink.

Speaker 8 All right, other things. I mean, it's just camp season.

Speaker 17 Nathaniel Hackett said Sean Payton broke the code.

Speaker 85 Broke code, yeah. Broke the code.

Speaker 16 Him and John Morant.

Speaker 72 Yeah.

Speaker 99 So

Speaker 100 that's a big problem.

Speaker 4 Mike Tomlin says he hopes that game's in prime time so he can watch it.

Speaker 47 I love that.

Speaker 43 Mike Tomlin is the best.

Speaker 47 He's just speaking for all of us.

Speaker 19 Yeah, they better put it in primetime.

Speaker 16 I've heard that Jets fans are panicking about the fact that they're going to have to stay up late to watch primetime games. A lot of pressure.
I mean, you're under the spotlight this year, Billy.

Speaker 16 I'm not saying that. You asked for this, Billy.

Speaker 33 You used to be able to forget about the Jets games with the primetime game. Hopefully, we won't have to.

Speaker 11 October 8th, 4:25 Eastern Time.

Speaker 47 So, that's kind of a primetime game.

Speaker 55 Yeah.

Speaker 13 Well, they can't flex it.

Speaker 11 I think it's too early.

Speaker 44 We also have just

Speaker 80 camp highlights that are very funny.

Speaker 7 George Pickens made the greatest catch of all time today.

Speaker 29 Everyone freaked out.

Speaker 16 Bijan Robinson is the greatest catch of all time of today.

Speaker 22 Of today.

Speaker 22 Of today.

Speaker 17 Bijan Robinson continues to light it up by beating linebackers in one-on-one drills.

Speaker 16 So sick. So sick.

Speaker 47 It's so funny when they're like uncoverable.

Speaker 84 Look at Bijan.

Speaker 46 I'm sure he's going to be good because he was fucking awesome.

Speaker 101 He's got a coach.

Speaker 40 But it is very funny to see him do a juke move on a one-on-one drill where the linebacker's just standing in space.

Speaker 48 Like, I would hope that the running back would win that drill 100 times out of 100.

Speaker 16 I saw a sick pass from Jordan Love today. Threw it about 45 yards in the air on a dot against no pass rush whatsoever.

Speaker 16 But you can just tell, like, that guy's special.

Speaker 4 Dak's been lighting it up.

Speaker 16 Yeah, Dak has.

Speaker 23 Dak through an interception.

Speaker 16 This is the nicest interception I've ever seen in my life.

Speaker 22 Trey Lance has a Trey Lance might get cut.

Speaker 16 Trey Lance overthrew his, I think, his coach by like 20 yards above his head.

Speaker 103 And they, like, all reports say that Sam Darnold and is Brock Purdy practicing?

Speaker 13 I think he is.

Speaker 47 They're getting more reps than him.

Speaker 16 That's a problem. It is a problem.
So that doesn't look good there. I saw Bryce Young today was being interviewed.
He's looked good in camp, apparently. Yep.

Speaker 3 Yeah, there were a lot of people.

Speaker 16 I'm a Stroud boy. There are a lot of people out there who are on Bryce's that were coming at me and saying, like, Bryce is not worse than Stroud.
I think Stroud's going to have a better rookie year.

Speaker 16 That's all I'm saying. But Bryce had an interview today where he said that

Speaker 16 he worked as a DoorDash delivery guy when he was in college.

Speaker 47 Okay.

Speaker 16 Where he would just pick up stuff and then drop them off at doorstops, not like opening the door, just like ring the doorbell and go back to the car.

Speaker 50 Okay.

Speaker 16 I have a couple questions about that. Number one, is that not against the NCAA rules to have a job in college?

Speaker 47 Well, not anymore.

Speaker 16 In 2020, was it?

Speaker 45 Maybe. It might have been.

Speaker 16 So he might have admitted to

Speaker 16 a serious violation on that one. And then, two, the way that he described it was so kind of shady where he's like, yeah, you know, I would just drop it off, ring the doorbell, go back to my car.

Speaker 16 I feel like he was just dropping bags off for Will Anderson.

Speaker 54 That's COVID, though.

Speaker 17 No contact.

Speaker 16 I think it's more likely that Nick Sabin was like, your delivery route is

Speaker 63 dropping facts right now.

Speaker 16 Going from Wells Fargo, dropping a bag off at Will Anderson's house, ringing the doorbell, and going back to your car. Don't look inside the bag.

Speaker 16 That's what I think.

Speaker 85 By the way, I just moved my foot.

Speaker 81 That's a good dirt. Yeah, that's a good dirt.

Speaker 47 That's what we're dealing with in the bottom of the hole of our audio guys cracking up right now.

Speaker 25 Okay, anything else before we do Hot C Cool Throne?

Speaker 24 And then we got two awesome interviews in a Mount Rushmore.

Speaker 19 Yep. Anything else?

Speaker 47 All right, let's go.

Speaker 16 Hey, it's PFT here, reminding you that Boars Head makes game day entertaining elevated and effortless.

Speaker 16 Whether you order catering platters ahead from your local Boars Head retailer, or you create your own spread at at home with Boarshead premium deli meats and cheeses, you are sure to impress your guests.

Speaker 16 My favorites like oven gold turkey or blazing buffalo-style chicken, paired with their classic Vermont cheddar or creamy Munster 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 16 Seriously, guys, it's a game-changing flavor for every gathering. Boarshead, committed to craft since 1905.

Speaker 58 Okay, Hot Sea, Cool Throne. Hank!

Speaker 4 Hot Si is Lizzo.

Speaker 47 Oh, what happened?

Speaker 94 Uh-oh. She's getting sued.

Speaker 4 For what? She was an answer.

Speaker 30 Not letting her people eat.

Speaker 4 No, she made, she actually was forcing her backup dancers to eat. Problem was it was bananas out of sex workers' vaginas.
Oh.

Speaker 31 Is that a crime?

Speaker 4 Apparently, well, she's getting sued for that.

Speaker 7 Would you sue us for that if we because you've there's been a point of contention this whole week that we've been starving you.

Speaker 22 So what if we started?

Speaker 4 Again, that's what you're saying. We got an accident, we've been starving you, you got an accident, you've been starving me.
I have not.

Speaker 15 I bought you $150 worth of breakfast.

Speaker 4 Yeah, we settled that today. Last week was a little tough, Monday was a little tough, but we've moved past that.

Speaker 24 What if I said to you tomorrow morning, hey, Hank, I have your breakfast.

Speaker 46 It's a banana out of PFT's asshole.

Speaker 4 I would probably talk to them, I would probably file a claim with Morgan and Morgan.

Speaker 91 Okay, okay.

Speaker 16 Yeah, so also just to recap here, Hank, when you say it started last week that you've been starved out, you ate lunch at one o'clock, and then you started to complain at 3:30 that you've only eaten one meal.

Speaker 47 That's actually very true.

Speaker 84 You said I've only eaten one meal today at three o'clock.

Speaker 64 7:30.

Speaker 91 Hank, you know what I had today?

Speaker 4 You were driving me as far away from the house as you could.

Speaker 91 You know what I had today?

Speaker 16 I ate two scoops of ice cream and a waffle cone. That was my lunch.
Same. And I'm your choice.

Speaker 4 That's the problem. You're forcing your choices on others.
Okay.

Speaker 22 Much like Lizzo. Yeah.

Speaker 16 You stop smoking weed and then you just don't get you've been a little bit.

Speaker 91 Yeah, you've been outside of your own head.

Speaker 97 Again,

Speaker 4 I think, again, asking for breakfast, that's a crime.

Speaker 4 Put me in the gulag.

Speaker 47 30 years old. You can get breakfast on your own.

Speaker 22 So back to Lizzo.

Speaker 4 She's getting sued. She's on the hot seat.

Speaker 19 So it was bananas out of vaginas?

Speaker 4 In Amsterdam. I guess that's probably where she was like, oh, we're in Amsterdam.
Anything goes. International law.

Speaker 16 There's a place called, I think it's called the Banana Room. Or I heard the story from Glenny Balls and Feitz when they went there with Burt Kreischer.
I think Feitz told me, actually.

Speaker 16 So KFC Radio went over there and they took him to the banana room. And this is what happens at the banana room.

Speaker 45 So it's kind of when you go into the banana room, not

Speaker 45 defending Lizzo here, but when you do go in the banana room, weird shit goes down.

Speaker 16 The first question you should ask when somebody takes you to a place called the banana room is, oh, why is it called the banana room?

Speaker 17 Oh, I would say, do they have snacks?

Speaker 47 They do.

Speaker 22 Okay, can I please have some?

Speaker 4 Yeah, maybe she won't, you know, maybe she'll get proven innocent.

Speaker 47 Okay.

Speaker 4 I think she's got somewhat of a claim, but yeah. I don't think so.
Probably not.

Speaker 81 That probably doesn't fly, especially subordinates.

Speaker 4 Yeah.

Speaker 47 Yeah. That's a blank department.

Speaker 90 Yeah.

Speaker 16 Because we've made you do that. So when I saw this story come out, I thought to myself

Speaker 16 anything.

Speaker 47 I thought to myself, you can have a banana

Speaker 1 out of PFT's asshole anytime you want.

Speaker 16 So along the lines of what you're saying right now, Big Cat, we've said and done a number of things that would probably open us up to litigation from Hank. 100%

Speaker 16 if he ever decided to.

Speaker 27 But we have like a what is it, canary in a coal mine?

Speaker 40 Charity law.

Speaker 23 If the canary dies, you know that there's a gas leak.

Speaker 25 Yeah.

Speaker 37 If Jake Marsh doesn't sue us, we're good.

Speaker 22 Yeah. He's our canary in a coal mine.

Speaker 84 Because he would be the one.

Speaker 2 That's binding.

Speaker 97 He just said, I will never sue you guys.

Speaker 35 Oh, I hope you want a banana split tonight, buddy.

Speaker 16 You like nuts on him?

Speaker 21 Yeah, Jake is our canary in a coal mud, though.

Speaker 47 Yeah.

Speaker 19 If he does not file an HR claim, no one else will.

Speaker 16 Yeah, that's actually great for immunity because Billy's definitely going to file a lawsuit at some point.

Speaker 47 Yeah, oh, for sure.

Speaker 48 We're going to have to

Speaker 14 have him sell it all together.

Speaker 16 We're just going to kill Billy.

Speaker 47 Yeah.

Speaker 4 Yeah, you're not. What do you think this hole's for?

Speaker 88 Billy just realized, oh, shit, why are we building a hole in in a remote location?

Speaker 16 We're in the middle of a cornfield in a giant hole. You ever seen the end of casino?

Speaker 79 Yes.

Speaker 37 It's the perfect crime, too, because we'd be like,

Speaker 22 why would we put Billy in a hole that we podcasted from?

Speaker 47 Yeah. That's stupid.

Speaker 33 Wink, wink. He just fell in.
Yeah. All right.

Speaker 4 Your cool throne, Hank? My cool throne is the NVP.

Speaker 19 Yes.

Speaker 4 Stakes got a lot higher for the MVP Nickelodeon playoff game. It was just a wildcard game the last couple years.

Speaker 105 Now they're doing a Super Bowl alternate broadcast.

Speaker 4 So they did kind of rig the polls. They did.

Speaker 19 AWL proofed it.

Speaker 22 Yeah.

Speaker 4 So I hope they open it up again. But yeah, they're doing an alternate Super Bowl broadcast

Speaker 4 this year. This year, Jake? Yeah.

Speaker 40 Jake. Is Noah Eagle on?

Speaker 16 Tell Noah Eagle to stop the steal. What they did to Democracy in America last time is unforgivable.
We couldn't vote for the quarterback of the losing team.

Speaker 47 If we knew

Speaker 36 that's our MVP.

Speaker 43 We'll make a stink.

Speaker 17 We'll make a stick.

Speaker 11 I think, yeah, the first year it was the hashtag so you guys could do your thing, but now they put it to the Nickelodeon website, right?

Speaker 62 And they only chose to go to the first one.

Speaker 47 No, first year it was a vote.

Speaker 4 No, but they only let you choose certain people this year.

Speaker 11 I thought it was hashtag like Mitch for MVP the first year.

Speaker 104 No, I just came up with that hashtag as we were watching it, trying to get other people to do it.

Speaker 63 We spammed the vote.

Speaker 16 And then sent people to the website. But no, it sounds like you're standing up for your boy.

Speaker 33 I mean, of course.

Speaker 16 Well, he rigged the election.

Speaker 60 It's not his fault.

Speaker 56 Oh, you're going to indict me?

Speaker 81 It is his fault.

Speaker 106 I'm going to indict him.

Speaker 37 All decisions are made by the play-by-play guy.

Speaker 43 Of course. That is a fact.

Speaker 16 Yes.

Speaker 43 I'll tell you what, if we win this MVP, shot of a lifetime.

Speaker 11 Yeah. You guys see the shot of a lifetime?

Speaker 67 Viral golf shot?

Speaker 47 No. What was it?

Speaker 16 This is like this guy from a bunker.

Speaker 47 Really?

Speaker 22 His actual shot of a lifetime?

Speaker 16 I would say shot of a lifetime from a bunker goes to the H-Man.

Speaker 22 That's true.

Speaker 47 That's a fact. Yeah.

Speaker 47 He killed Hitler.

Speaker 19 Yeah, he did.

Speaker 84 He did something good for everyone.

Speaker 67 Yeah.

Speaker 22 Okay.

Speaker 4 Oh, wait, that was your cool throne. That was my cool throne.
Okay.

Speaker 47 Good gift.

Speaker 47 Good cool.

Speaker 50 Great job, Hank. Thank you.
Great job, Hank.

Speaker 35 Hey, we know you're not to be positive reinforcement because you stopped smoking weed.

Speaker 71 Why did you stop smoking weed?

Speaker 47 I watched you. You never really told me that.

Speaker 4 You just sucked. I don't know.
I just ran out and was like, I'm done.

Speaker 22 It's interesting.

Speaker 40 Because it's legal in Illinois.

Speaker 4 Yeah, I don't know.

Speaker 94 I just, I turned 30, I'm older. I was just like, fuck it.

Speaker 79 I actually don't know.

Speaker 4 I mean, like, if you had a car right now, I'd probably smoke it. I'm just not buying it for myself.
Okay.

Speaker 37 So we just have to buy you wheat.

Speaker 19 No. Okay, that's fine.

Speaker 2 Deal.

Speaker 16 I think I actually know why Hank's grumpy, and it is, it's my hot seat. I know why you stop smoking.
It's weed. Weed's on my hot seat.

Speaker 61 Uh-oh.

Speaker 16 There's something called a hop-latent viroid going around, and it basically nerfs potent weed.

Speaker 16 So all the big potent weed, everyone's, we've talked about on the show before, weed has gotten too strong. That might be a boomer take on our part.

Speaker 16 When we were growing up, weed was still pretty strong, but not this strong.

Speaker 91 So they fixed my shit. They've made it

Speaker 16 less strong. So the nerfing of the weed is going around right now.
There's like a virus or a fungus that's affecting like 90% of marijuana plants in the country.

Speaker 50 We got a wild cat.

Speaker 13 What? No, that's a bunch of cats.

Speaker 47 Oh, shit.

Speaker 49 We saw it earlier.

Speaker 52 Oh, let's get this cat in the hole. Oh, no.

Speaker 22 Let's get this cat in the hole.

Speaker 55 Sorry, PFT, but there's a cat right here.

Speaker 15 We're going to get this cat in the hole.

Speaker 54 I'm allergic.

Speaker 56 Oh,

Speaker 20 you're scaring it. You're scaring it.

Speaker 93 Come here, kitty.

Speaker 58 Come here, kitty.

Speaker 54 Oh, let's get this cat.

Speaker 54 Oh, yeah.

Speaker 76 You're allergic to pussy, Jake?

Speaker 70 That kind.

Speaker 90 Okay.

Speaker 54 You dog you.

Speaker 14 Okay, all right.

Speaker 38 Go ahead back to the nerfed weed.

Speaker 16 So weed is not strong anymore. So basically, in the next year or two, all the really potent weed is going to be brought down by like 50% potency, which I actually think is wonderful.
Yeah.

Speaker 16 I think that's what weed needs to be. It needs to be exactly exactly half as strong as it is right now so you can still smoke it and do stuff.
So that means we have to buy double the weed for you.

Speaker 16 We have to buy twice as much weed for you.

Speaker 4 Why are you trying to enable me?

Speaker 47 Why can't you just support me?

Speaker 33 I support you, Hank.

Speaker 16 I think this is like life binds away.

Speaker 82 Yeah.

Speaker 16 Like the universe knows. Weed's getting too strong.
God was like, okay, let me just sprinkle some of this virus out there.

Speaker 108 Yeah, agreed. Salt Bay.

Speaker 16 Agreed.

Speaker 16 My cool throne is Northwestern, the University of Northwestern, because they hired former Attorney General Loretta Lynch to lead an investigation into all the hazing practices and the culture at Northwestern football.

Speaker 16 And also at the same time, they had a four-star quarterback commit that just switches commitment to Oklahoma. Oh.

Speaker 16 So, but my cool throne is that I actually think that this is good as a fan of Northwestern. I think it's good for the program as a true fan of the football team.
Are you like on the board?

Speaker 47 I am. Yeah, physically.

Speaker 16 I am on the board. And as a fan of Northwestern, a real fan of the school, the institution, not just the football team, I think they should be given the death penalty.

Speaker 16 I think that as Northwestern goes, we're more than a football team.

Speaker 16 We're an institution that develops and builds young minds and teaches them to be ethical. And we can't do that with this sort of football team.

Speaker 16 So listen, if you're an alumni out there who's in sports media, if you're a journalist and you're saying anything besides death penalty to Northwestern, you're also agreeing with the fact of everything that they did to get to this point.

Speaker 16 Yes. You're endorsing it.

Speaker 22 Not me.

Speaker 37 Jake, I sense a little disdain when you said that about PFT there.

Speaker 14 Are you?

Speaker 63 I mean, there's a journalism rivalry.

Speaker 87 Right, I know.

Speaker 24 He has a more prestigious degree than you.

Speaker 28 Right.

Speaker 16 Well, also, our journalism school, you forget, it was unaccredited. So we lost our accreditation.
Discredited.

Speaker 47 Yeah.

Speaker 16 Just numbers never lie.

Speaker 74 Numbers never lie.

Speaker 11 Accreditation never lies. Yeah.

Speaker 16 That's true. So, yeah, I think Northwestern, as a fan, should have the football team disbanded.
Death penalty. Yes.
That's the only way out of this.

Speaker 50 Agreed.

Speaker 40 Agreed. All right.

Speaker 46 My hot seat is the Pac-12.

Speaker 45 Pac-12 feels like they are teetering at this moment.

Speaker 21 Could even be announced after this, but Arizona, Arizona State, and Utah are being rumored to go to the Big 12.

Speaker 69 The Pac-12 is also trying to get them to stay by putting the Pac-12 on Apple TV.

Speaker 49 CW?

Speaker 27 Yeah, subscription model, which I guess would be better than the Pac-12 channel that I never was able to finally get.

Speaker 16 It's always channel number like 671. Yeah.

Speaker 17 So, but the Pac-12 feels like they're in dire straits.

Speaker 19 I've also heard rumors. It's it is true.

Speaker 47 What? Great band. Great band, yeah.
Mark Knoffer.

Speaker 27 You know him.

Speaker 16 No, it's a callback. Yeah.
When Hank Hank sang Darren Strait's great, what did you say? Great song.

Speaker 47 Yeah, great song.

Speaker 42 It is.

Speaker 40 I've also heard rumors that Washington and Oregon to the Big Ten and possibly Florida State and Clemson as well.

Speaker 16 So who's going to be in the Pac-12?

Speaker 11 I don't think anybody. I don't think Clemson should go to the SEC if they're going to move.

Speaker 58 Hands off, Jake, okay?

Speaker 48 I want them.

Speaker 60 Okay. I'm saying geographically.
Yeah.

Speaker 28 Okay.

Speaker 21 Well, UCLA and USC don't make any sense geographically.

Speaker 37 Geographics do not matter in college football anymore.

Speaker 36 We're headed for the big two, maybe big three, maybe big 12.

Speaker 38 That'd be awesome if the big 12 just like

Speaker 16 spring from the ashes and became one of the big three. Well, it's funny because like all these teams leaving the Pac-12, this is now when Gonzaga is going to go to the Pac-12.

Speaker 47 Yeah.

Speaker 97 Look at us.

Speaker 63 We're in a major conference.

Speaker 25 I don't know why we don't just do...

Speaker 24 We just do NFL model and just have

Speaker 2 divisions. Yeah.

Speaker 43 And just have conferences.

Speaker 2 The Big Ten and the SEC are the conferences.

Speaker 65 We just kind of do divisions.

Speaker 16 You just kind of created

Speaker 16 college football as it is right now.

Speaker 14 Well, they'd have to clean it up a little.

Speaker 65 I'm saying there's only two conferences.

Speaker 38 So we're headed that way.

Speaker 50 We're not there yet.

Speaker 16 Two conferences, divisions within the conferences. Maybe 32 teams total.
Correct. And they play in divisions of four.
Right. Got it.

Speaker 92 Yes, it's going to work.

Speaker 43 I just want to get to the final ending of this.

Speaker 23 I'm just sick of it. Yeah.

Speaker 37 And then my cool throne is Lane Kiffen's girlfriend.

Speaker 43 It was National Girlfriend Day, so he posted to her.

Speaker 92 And she's attractive. Yeah.

Speaker 13 She is. Congrats.

Speaker 13 That's fine.

Speaker 19 That's fine. Well, he posted it.

Speaker 84 I didn't even know there was National Girlfriend Day.

Speaker 92 You want to see a picture of her?

Speaker 16 I saw it. She's nice.

Speaker 16 She looks smart. She looks like very intelligent.

Speaker 13 They look happy. National Girlfriend Day, see?

Speaker 22 Yeah. She's good looking.

Speaker 16 I like that he's got the high-neck sweatshirt, too. Yeah.
Yeah.

Speaker 40 He looks like he's just living his best life with National Girlfriend Day.

Speaker 86 Big shout-out.

Speaker 47 They got a day for everything.

Speaker 23 National Hank Eats a Banana out of PFT's ass day is tomorrow.

Speaker 50 I'm excited.

Speaker 16 Hank, how much would it cost?

Speaker 15 Good question.

Speaker 27 I want to know your number.

Speaker 106 Everyone's got to watch.

Speaker 106 Is the peel on before or after?

Speaker 47 Oh, how far in your asshole is it?

Speaker 16 It would be half in, half out.

Speaker 33 Wait, wait, but, dude, the peel you're grand cash.

Speaker 4 Oh, that's grand?

Speaker 47 That's doable.

Speaker 56 That's doable.

Speaker 33 But get the peel on before.

Speaker 16 Wait, how much am I getting out of this? I have to see.

Speaker 66 I'm going to pan up my ass.

Speaker 42 You're allowed to post it.

Speaker 91 Okay, yeah, go straight.

Speaker 56 Only pants? Yeah.

Speaker 42 Okay, Billy, your hot sequel drawn.

Speaker 33 My hot seat is Hitmen.

Speaker 33 A 28-year-old hired a hitman to kill his lover's husband, who was a former Auburn football player, and it went through. I've been hearing a lot of Hitman plots lately.
Some guy applied to be a hitman.

Speaker 33 I'm not hearing any positive Hitman stories. I think it's a profession that's going out of business.

Speaker 16 Yeah, I mean, every time I hear a story about a Hitman, it's just straight up. Like, this Hitman was like secretly recording the person that asked them to kill somebody.

Speaker 16 If you ask your friend, they're like, do you know a Hitman? And they introduce you to somebody, that guy's wearing a wire. Yes.

Speaker 54 Facts.

Speaker 4 I saw a video that Woody Harrelson's dad was a hitman.

Speaker 22 Yeah, he killed JFK.

Speaker 16 And he killed a judge, like an accomplished hitman.

Speaker 13 Yeah.

Speaker 14 Wait, you can just apply to be a hitman?

Speaker 47 LinkedIn.

Speaker 66 Hitman.

Speaker 37 It's right next to Barstool GMs.

Speaker 16 It's called LinkedIn, but it's spelled like Lincoln.

Speaker 33 I think hitmanforhire.com was the website that got him.

Speaker 22 Oh, that'll apply. That's pretty under the radar.

Speaker 47 Yeah.

Speaker 33 It actually might be a better

Speaker 33 thing to pretend to be a hitman and con people.

Speaker 16 Like Jake's been doing this whole time. Jake, take out your gun now.
Kill Billy.

Speaker 11 Big God admitted that I'm not a rat because I ate wings.

Speaker 47 Yeah, you did.

Speaker 18 You ate wings.

Speaker 42 It's your annual, hey guys, I can do this.

Speaker 45 Jake also put away quite a bit of wings, more than I thought that you would.

Speaker 11 Because this is my first time this week.

Speaker 56 You're a great eater.

Speaker 60 Yeah, I can eat

Speaker 60 $19 in eight hours at Bolero.

Speaker 22 Yeah, that's true. That's a fact.
And your cool throne?

Speaker 33 My cool throne is the Jets. Shout out Stephen Shea.

Speaker 16 He did a little police work, not too much but aaron rodgers this is not going well how much is too much police work the jets sounds like you don't respect no no no no no look sounds like you know

Speaker 33 i've been following this but stephen shea wrote a blog and i respect the bloggers okay uh aaron rogers took a 35 million dollar pay cut right devante adams right visited the jets recently

Speaker 33 did he he did aaron rodgers

Speaker 33 on track he's on a cool raiders right right right but what do you mean he probably went to the jets facility went to new york I think.

Speaker 47 Yes.

Speaker 46 He went to the Jets facility.

Speaker 33 Not to the facility.

Speaker 2 That's not visiting.

Speaker 37 He went to New York City to see his friend.

Speaker 47 Okay.

Speaker 71 Okay.

Speaker 16 So there's no other reason why he would go to New York City. There's probably a couple.

Speaker 46 He didn't visit the Jets.

Speaker 43 He visited New York City.

Speaker 47 Okay. That's what he did.

Speaker 33 Naval's in New Jersey. Okay.

Speaker 47 We don't know that.

Speaker 14 But if he visited the Jets, that would be like very illegal in tampering law.

Speaker 7 So, quote. This is a very, very serious.

Speaker 16 That would break the code. Yes.

Speaker 33 Quote from Aaron Rodgers. You probably agree with this this year compared to like 2005.
The amount of transactions that happen now with guys getting cut and the amount of trades way more than before.

Speaker 33 Big names move at the trade deadline now. I wanted to make sure that if somebody valuable came available, that we'd be able to get him.
I'm very happy with the contract.

Speaker 33 I feel great about it on his contract. So, hypothetically, at the trade deadline, something were to happen.

Speaker 33 Like, we have super teams now, Dame. Vaughn, Miller, OBJ went to the Rams before they won a Super Bowl.

Speaker 16 Hey. Okay, so I actually don't disagree with

Speaker 47 this. It makes sense.

Speaker 16 I do think that things are going to go sideways for the Raiders pretty quickly this year.

Speaker 16 Devontae Adams, probably not going to be happy playing for Jimmy Garoppolo in what figures to be a low-win season for Las Vegas.

Speaker 16 So it would make sense that he would be disgruntled halfway through the season and want to leave.

Speaker 16 So listen, I'll give all the credit to Stephen Shea for his not too much police work and for you for bringing it up on the show. I think that it's a good possibility that this happens.

Speaker 36 Yeah, the problem for the Jets would be that are they running out of picks.

Speaker 2 How many they send for Aaron Rodgers?

Speaker 39 A couple? Yeah, a few.

Speaker 45 But I mean, you'd have to get, it doesn't really matter.

Speaker 29 That's a problem you just deal with later.

Speaker 36 Can you do cash in the NFL?

Speaker 16 Like they do in baseball? Cash considerations? Could

Speaker 16 the Woody Johnson send some money to Mark Davis? Because Mark Davis needs some cash.

Speaker 47 Yeah.

Speaker 104 Why not?

Speaker 38 That would be good. Yeah.
Just float him some?

Speaker 72 Yeah.

Speaker 92 Maybe a P.F.

Speaker 50 Chang's gift card. Yeah.

Speaker 7 This P.F. Chang's gift card is worth $500,000.

Speaker 16 Black card.

Speaker 5 It's like Mark Davis, like, that's two months.

Speaker 14 Okay,

Speaker 93 Jake.

Speaker 11 My hot seat's Kendrick Perkins.

Speaker 99 He got ejected at a aau tournament uh-oh bad look what yelling at the refs something like that

Speaker 16 okay i i almost respect that depends on what the refs did

Speaker 60 not a kid like

Speaker 46 ejected is different ejected is is a bad look it's not a terrible look because a fight is what's a really bad look yeah that's fair like blunt is bad look right My dad's been kicked out of a couple.

Speaker 26 I never would have guessed that.

Speaker 33 It's not that bad.

Speaker 16 Sometimes you go too hard for your son.

Speaker 16 I do like the rule, though, when you get kicked out of a little league game for yelling at an umpire, you have to go to umpire school and then umpire a game yourself. Yeah.
Punishment fits a crime.

Speaker 14 Yep, absolutely.

Speaker 11 My cool throne is Doris Burke. Yes.
She's getting promoted to the A-team alongside Mike Breen and newcomer in the booth, Doc Rivers.

Speaker 23 I like how you just presented that.

Speaker 96 Yeah.

Speaker 11 Well, I think he has prior broadcasting.

Speaker 14 He does, but he does.

Speaker 54 Is he going to be horse on the A-team?

Speaker 16 What? Is he going to be hoarse all the time?

Speaker 50 I don't know.

Speaker 11 But Mark Jackson, I think everyone was shocked that he got removed as well from the A-team.

Speaker 7 I have a take that probably people will disagree with.

Speaker 37 I loved Jeff Van Gundy.

Speaker 17 I liked that booth. Mark Jackson, kind of a goofball, but like you need that in broadcasting.

Speaker 24 I do think there was a moment where it was like, they've been doing this for too long because all they do is complain.

Speaker 36 Yeah. You know what I mean?

Speaker 47 Or the cat's about to come in.

Speaker 90 Ew. Whoa.

Speaker 16 What's the cat's name?

Speaker 105 Blake.

Speaker 84 And Mark Jackson. You know what I mean, though? Do you guys like that?

Speaker 6 I think they're great.

Speaker 8 They just got a little bit grumpy because they've been doing it for so long.

Speaker 16 But they weren't even really grumpy about the wrong things. I found myself agreeing with them about the flagrant fouls of the game.

Speaker 97 Of course.

Speaker 56 Of course.

Speaker 24 But there's also like when you're watching a game, you don't want to hear just constant complaints.

Speaker 19 Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 16 I always lean more towards

Speaker 16 I will tolerate a shitty booth if they're friends and they get along and they seem to be having a good time.

Speaker 63 I like that.

Speaker 16 I like listening to buddies just talk while watching sports.

Speaker 103 I weirdly think that like Mark Jackson and Jeff Van Gundy, if they take a year off and and then come back, I'd be like, yes, I'm all the way back in.

Speaker 37 Yeah. You know, just a reset year.

Speaker 16 I'm going to miss hearing Mark Jackson just say, Jeff Van Gundy. Yeah.

Speaker 50 All the time.

Speaker 18 Remember when he tried to fuck LeBron's wife?

Speaker 4 Yeah. With all due respect.

Speaker 62 With all due respect.

Speaker 47 I'd knocked that out of the bar. I'd knocked that out of the bar.
Yeah.

Speaker 11 So Mike Breen was

Speaker 11 stunned and sad about

Speaker 11 the firings of Jackson and Van Gundy.

Speaker 23 I mean, he probably got a pay raise, too, right?

Speaker 50 Breen? Yeah. I don't know.

Speaker 47 He's great, though.

Speaker 49 Doris Burke is good, too.

Speaker 110 That's the other thing. Doris deserves it.

Speaker 106 Mike Green won't make anything good. You don't like Doris?

Speaker 4 She's a hater. Celtics hater.

Speaker 62 Oh, really?

Speaker 47 Yeah.

Speaker 76 Who does she?

Speaker 4 She didn't say a word during game seven. Doris is a business.
When Jason Tatum was going off and beat the Sixers, she was just dead silent.

Speaker 63 I love that, you Hank.

Speaker 37 No, I genuinely love that.

Speaker 16 Maybe she wasn't.

Speaker 47 She wasn't announcing.

Speaker 16 Maybe she was literally on the floor in amazement.

Speaker 37 What's the point of being a sports fan if you can't get pissed at the announcers?

Speaker 55 Yeah.

Speaker 56 Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 4 I'm not wrong. I'll show you.
There's documented proof. Oh, you have a tape?

Speaker 60 Yeah. Okay.

Speaker 11 What about your guy, Doc, who won right to the A-team?

Speaker 4 I love Doc. Yeah, great coach.
It's sad, you know, players that he had in Philly couldn't do enough for him, but championship coach.

Speaker 37 He has won a championship.

Speaker 16 Yeah, that is a fact. Max, what are your thoughts on Doc?

Speaker 77 I want Hank to shut up.

Speaker 1 Okay, well, let's get to the interviews.

Speaker 18 Let's do some interviews.

Speaker 113 The Pro Football Football Show is presented by the Chevy Silverado. Built for the hustle, ready for the game.
Chevy Silverado is America's most dependable full-size truck.

Speaker 113 Whether you're grinding through the week week or gearing up for kickoff, the Silverado is one ride that's always game ready. Just like football, it's about grit, grind, and getting it done.

Speaker 113 Head to Chevy.com to learn more and build your own Chevy Silverado.

Speaker 5 Okay, we now welcome on our best friend, multiple-time recurring guest.

Speaker 74 I'm just telling them, it's like grit week for you guys. I know that.
It's like grit two and a half weeks for us. That's true.

Speaker 74 I love it though. I do.
I honestly, I love being in the dorms. You get to control your own little AC.
I put mine down like 58 degrees.

Speaker 16 It's nice.

Speaker 74 You walk outside like you spend every waking moment with the boys. Yeah.
And it's just having a good time, talking about football and life, getting to know each other a little bit better.

Speaker 74 playing video games with each other and just hanging out. I love it.

Speaker 16 You decorate your dorm room.

Speaker 47 You got posters up there. Bob Marley Marley poster.

Speaker 74 I should get a PMT poster up there.

Speaker 47 Yeah, you should.

Speaker 81 Pink Floyd ass poster.

Speaker 83 Yeah, all of them.

Speaker 111 Boo Doc Saints, Scarface poster. Yeah, we get you all.

Speaker 79 All the Belushi college kicks kissing. Yeah, the kiss.

Speaker 74 Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 74 Strong guys out?

Speaker 62 Strong guys?

Speaker 47 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly.

Speaker 27 We just put it all up in the dorm.

Speaker 17 So it's great to see you.

Speaker 27 It's great to have you back on.

Speaker 80 I actually also have to start with: I saw a tweet that you got hit really hard in camp practice like a minute ago.

Speaker 66 I did.

Speaker 17 And that the whole place went silent for about 10 seconds.

Speaker 82 Are you okay?

Speaker 74 I'm fine.

Speaker 65 Do we need to do something to take this person out, whoever hit you?

Speaker 51 No, I love Taryn.

Speaker 74 It was an accident.

Speaker 74 It was an accident. It was kind of a little quarterback throwback pass.
I was waiting for the ball, and Thawson threw the ball.

Speaker 74 Taryn comes in flying in like a bat out of hell and got a nice little Charlie horse, but more importantly, I was on the ground. I just got the wind knocked out of me.

Speaker 47 Okay. It's just.

Speaker 54 That's scary.

Speaker 74 The wind knocked out of you is one of the scariest things you can experience.

Speaker 57 Because when you get get the wind knocked out of you, it looks like the way you act is a significant injury.

Speaker 99 Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 69 Even though you'll be fine in 10 seconds. Yeah.

Speaker 16 Okay. It looks like you're going to die.

Speaker 106 Yeah.

Speaker 110 It feels like you're going to die.

Speaker 16 Yeah. You're on the ground just like gasping for air.
You said it was an accident.

Speaker 16 Yeah. Sounds like hard-nosed defense.

Speaker 74 That's playing some gritty defense.

Speaker 21 You are truly gritty.

Speaker 16 We can go at each other and say who's gritty, who's not. You would say.
Can we see your gritty? Yeah, you want to beat your ass?

Speaker 47 No.

Speaker 47 The gritty. Oh, the gritty.
You call me gritty? Yeah.

Speaker 74 Honestly, I'm not going to do it for for you, but we got to.

Speaker 99 Okay. Oh,

Speaker 95 oh, oh, oh, oh, don't you?

Speaker 110 Sit down.

Speaker 6 Okay, sit down. Wait, so if you were so gritty,

Speaker 16 take the fucking red jersey off.

Speaker 40 Yeah, you ever feel like a pussy for wearing that red jersey?

Speaker 36 Yeah, no one can touch you.

Speaker 74 I've gone out there actually three times without a red jersey.

Speaker 47 Really? Okay. And just played.

Speaker 74 I played

Speaker 83 the end for the practice.

Speaker 47 Nobody knew.

Speaker 16 Who's that guy? What about the visor? Are we rocking the visor?

Speaker 90 I don't know.

Speaker 74 I always do the different colored visor for camp and practice sometimes. I did a clear visor in college for a little bit.

Speaker 47 I don't know. No visor.
No visor.

Speaker 74 No visor.

Speaker 50 You don't like visor? No, it won't be.

Speaker 16 No Super Bowl quarterback has ever worn a visor.

Speaker 90 Doesn't Mahomes wear a visor?

Speaker 54 No, I don't think so.

Speaker 13 We can fact-check it.

Speaker 47 We can factor factor Visor Visor. I'm pretty sure he does just don't say anything.

Speaker 16 We'll delete this, yeah. Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 74 I thought he did at one point because he was an Oakley guy.

Speaker 16 Not when he won the Super Bowl.

Speaker 90 Yeah. Hold up.

Speaker 16 Yeah, we'll fact-check it.

Speaker 100 Your coach has the Lombardi trophy on a big banner in the facility.

Speaker 57 Are you thinking that maybe that's a little forward?

Speaker 40 Is that too much?

Speaker 47 That's good to visualize. Okay.
That's good to see it.

Speaker 17 Will you go one step further and maybe make a reservation for the Super Bowl?

Speaker 85 Just be like, this is my goal.

Speaker 115 I'm making the reservation right now.

Speaker 74 Reservation for

Speaker 13 the Super Bowl for Vegas.

Speaker 74 For what, though? You gotta tell her.

Speaker 74 You have to tell reservation. Well, the team does that for us.

Speaker 53 It's like the scene from Steinfeld.

Speaker 48 What's it called?

Speaker 100 The reservation where he's like, you gotta hold the reservation.

Speaker 40 Do Do you watch Steinfeld?

Speaker 47 Are you a fan of Steinfeld? I don't.

Speaker 30 Okay.

Speaker 61 Am I saying that right? Seinfeld? Steinfeld.

Speaker 47 Seinfeld. You're saying Steinfeld.

Speaker 40 Are you a fan of Steinfeld?

Speaker 16 I don't know what Steinfeld is.

Speaker 51 Like the show?

Speaker 90 Yeah, the show. Yeah.

Speaker 47 Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 68 You should buy a big fan.

Speaker 16 You should buy a ticket to a show in Las Vegas that weekend and be like, okay, I've already got my tickets. Yeah.

Speaker 74 Yeah, but I don't want to go to a show for getting prepared for the Super Bowl.

Speaker 16 I think it's just disrespectful that you and your coach are saying we'd like to win the Super Bowl this year.

Speaker 71 Yeah.

Speaker 16 That seems kind of messed up.

Speaker 47 I didn't know how I was going to work that in. Did I do a good job? You did a good job.
Okay, thanks.

Speaker 112 I was like, how the fuck am I going to bring up Seinfeld and then say Steinfeld?

Speaker 22 Josh Allen did that.

Speaker 16 I've been reading the news. Have you been reading the news about yourself?

Speaker 74 Which, no?

Speaker 16 There was a headline, and it was just, Josh Allen makes out with his girlfriend on vacation. That's awesome that somebody writes an article about you making out with your girlfriend.

Speaker 74 The fact that anybody cares about that

Speaker 74 still blows my mind.

Speaker 18 He looks good in shorts.

Speaker 14 I saw the pictures.

Speaker 74 i was like he looks good in shorts they were on a boat what they were on a boat seriously that's up that does that bother because like it's it's that's i saw it and i just like

Speaker 47 i just felt like this this gross feeling yeah the invasion of private security no no privacy was just like what is wrong with you got to get back to buffalo the people of buffalo will protect you yeah yeah that's the difference while we're back yeah that's why we're not because it's your job but yeah that's why we're back you could have worse headlines written about you though than like makes out with girlfriend yeah that's true that's true that's That's not a bad one.

Speaker 47 That is a pretty good one.

Speaker 21 All right, so how are we feeling physically? Because

Speaker 17 I think that you're so tough, you were more injured last year than you let on.

Speaker 48 And now are you fully back?

Speaker 6 Do you feel good?

Speaker 74 We're back.

Speaker 47 Okay.

Speaker 34 Because

Speaker 34 is that true? Like,

Speaker 17 you were more banged up as the season went along, especially after the elbow.

Speaker 74 Yeah. I mean, there was.
probably three or four weeks where I didn't practice at all. I just would get ready for game day.
Right. I was just staying out there.

Speaker 74 I'd get mental reps, reps, but I wouldn't throw until game day.

Speaker 74 So that takes a toll on you, whether you believe it or not. Like getting those repetitions in practice, it helps out a lot.
And

Speaker 74 there's no excuses, though. We got to go out there and we ball.

Speaker 90 I like that.

Speaker 47 Are you worried at all about the Madden cover?

Speaker 116 No, not at all.

Speaker 109 Okay.

Speaker 110 I think that got just in case.

Speaker 16 I think that got debunked, right? It did.

Speaker 85 It's one of those things that whenever it's bad, it becomes a big story, and then there's a bunch of years where it's fine.

Speaker 98 Yeah.

Speaker 47 Yeah.

Speaker 112 So you're not worried. No.

Speaker 14 What happened? When they approach you and you're just like, fuck, this is like the coolest thing ever?

Speaker 74 Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 74 I mean, they, they gave my agent a call and said, hey, we, we want him to be on the cover and got in a Zoom call with them and they had like this video and this whole presentation and the video is like really freaking sick.

Speaker 74 And I was just like,

Speaker 109 okay. Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 74 Because I mean, I grew up playing. Yeah, right.

Speaker 76 That's a good thing.

Speaker 74 That's how I learned the rules. That's how I like the basic coverages of defense and basic, you know, offensive concepts.

Speaker 74 And as a kid, I would play with my brother and my dad, and I knew every single rule. So like when I played like pee wee and junior varsity football,

Speaker 74 I was so far ahead of the curve because I knew what was supposed to be going on.

Speaker 16 Do you look at the ratings and you're like, man, they really boned me on pass-blocking? I always love it when they have

Speaker 47 players and they decide strength.

Speaker 74 I should be one of the, if not the strongest, like quarterback in the NFL because I'm so, so strong.

Speaker 58 Yeah.

Speaker 74 But they have me a little weaker.

Speaker 16 Has your arm gotten stronger since you've been in the NFL?

Speaker 74 No, I think it's stayed pretty constant.

Speaker 16 When was the last time you just ripped the ball and you're like, let's see how far this will go?

Speaker 74 It's been a long time.

Speaker 16 Yeah. Yeah.
You never actually threw one out of the stadium, right?

Speaker 74 No, I tried it one time. Yeah.

Speaker 16 Are you going to try it again this year?

Speaker 116 Maybe. We'll see.

Speaker 74 Okay. Depends on which way the wind's drifting.

Speaker 74 If I got a heavy wind behind me, I might just chuck one up there. But it's a $17,000 fine every time I do it.

Speaker 16 But still, if you throw a football out of the stadium, I'll cover your fine.

Speaker 84 Yeah, well, no, you know what?

Speaker 47 We'll take it out of our cut.

Speaker 58 No, no, no, no, no.

Speaker 40 The $15 million you owe us.

Speaker 22 Oh, yeah.

Speaker 62 We'll take it out of the IOU.

Speaker 27 Okay, we'll just take it from the the IOU.

Speaker 47 That's fine. Yeah.

Speaker 22 Pay it down.

Speaker 74 Yeah, I do have some IOUs back there for you guys.

Speaker 16 I would like to say you can take my cut of the 15 million and you can use it and distribute it to your running backs.

Speaker 47 How about that?

Speaker 109 Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 109 Seven and a half million?

Speaker 40 That's chump change. Okay.

Speaker 47 Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 21 So wait, when did you sign the big deal?

Speaker 28 Was it a year ago?

Speaker 96 Or after

Speaker 109 two years ago?

Speaker 76 Has your

Speaker 76 two years ago already?

Speaker 46 Have you bought anything like crazy?

Speaker 74 Define crazy.

Speaker 43 Golf simulator?

Speaker 74 I got a golf simulator, but

Speaker 74 is it crazy? Did I buy it, though?

Speaker 52 Oh, okay.

Speaker 40 That's smart.

Speaker 43 See, now you're using, you're saving that up so you can pay us.

Speaker 83 Yeah, exactly.

Speaker 74 So I actually spent what I was going to give you guys, so that's why I have the IOUs. So once that gets paid off, I can start reimbursing you.

Speaker 16 What about jet skis?

Speaker 74 No jet skis,

Speaker 74 no boats.

Speaker 99 tractor no

Speaker 74 well so there was uh my dad texted me the other day we i had worn a fireball eagle sweatshirt which was my high school and buffalo and bills mafia bought like a hundred thousand dollars worth and it was donated straight to the high school my dad texted me they're buying an ai

Speaker 74 robot to paint the fields

Speaker 47 That's pretty cool.

Speaker 74 Yeah, I was my dad saying was like hey, they need your permission to buy this like that's what they want to buy.

Speaker 47 Yeah.

Speaker 109 Yeah.

Speaker 16 So it just goes out there like on wheels.

Speaker 74 Yeah, it's got like this like kind of like command center.

Speaker 74 You press the button and it goes and it paints some straight lines and then you can input the logo in the middle of the field and it'll go and do the entire logo.

Speaker 16 That's awesome. So you can do like soccer button, football button, lacrosse button.

Speaker 47 I believe so. Yeah.
Yeah.

Speaker 54 That's awesome. That's crazy.
Yeah.

Speaker 19 Okay. That's a good use of money.

Speaker 16 That's the craziest thing that you've bought is an AI field painting?

Speaker 47 And I didn't even bought it.

Speaker 62 I don't know.

Speaker 47 I don't know. I bought a a new house recently.

Speaker 116 Okay.

Speaker 51 Nice.

Speaker 76 I mean, I wouldn't say that's crazy.

Speaker 62 Yeah, no, that's not crazy.

Speaker 19 So it sounds like you have the 15 million for us.

Speaker 111 So, I mean, you're doing a good job with your money.

Speaker 74 The thing is, you know,

Speaker 74 my checking and savings account's all set up. You know, it takes a couple of days.
Yeah.

Speaker 26 I want to talk about last year a little bit.

Speaker 27 Obviously, the DeMar Hamlin thing was crazy.

Speaker 14 What was it for you as the leader of the team?

Speaker 15 Did you get in front of everyone like a day or two after being like, hey, this is, you know, like, did you feel that responsibility Especially in a moment that had never happened before?

Speaker 74 Yeah

Speaker 74 in the locker room because we'd gone back in and kind of gotten like a 15 20 minute break or whatever before we were gonna have to go back out there and play and

Speaker 74 I had to stand up and just kind of ask a question and I hated asking the question

Speaker 74 To see if anybody and everybody would play But I'm glad I did because it just took one person to say no, we're not doing it. It was like okay, we're not doing it.

Speaker 74 So that that that it sucked um obviously that situation was so crazy but i'm so glad that he's out here and practicing with us and first day of pads back with him and um just the inspiration that he's actually brought our team and it's to go even further and inspiration that he's brought in a lot of other people around the country world and he's done such a good job of uh you know teaching cpr classes and making sure that local communities and uh teams have aeds in their facilities so a lot of good has come from that situation yeah which again hundreds of lives are going to be saved because of that.

Speaker 22 Yeah.

Speaker 48 Like that's just a fact because teams will you know use sports and all that stuff the awareness can be incredible.

Speaker 47 Yeah, that's awesome.

Speaker 16 Yeah. What was it like getting ready to play the following week after that? It was tough.
Yeah, we were sitting thinking about it. Like, are they actually going to be able to play?

Speaker 16 Because that's going to be in the back of your mind or at the front of your mind all week.

Speaker 16 You're probably just like us refreshing Twitter, trying to figure out like if there's any news, any news could be good news.

Speaker 16 So like going into that week, what was that like trying to prepare for a game?

Speaker 74 Yeah, I mean, it's a little bit of a psychological warfare, like, within your, within yourself.

Speaker 74 Um, and every day we were getting updates, uh, like the first team meeting, we would get a call from whether it was the doctors that were helping tomorrow or his parents.

Speaker 74 And then that, that third day, we got a call, and it was him.

Speaker 74 And

Speaker 74 just being like, seeing him and him just kind of saying, like, y'all boys, go get him, like, gave us enough juice to go out there and, you know, first play.

Speaker 90 Yeah.

Speaker 23 Maheem Hines, yeah.

Speaker 47 Still can't believe it.

Speaker 115 Yeah, no, that was, that was insane.

Speaker 21 Absolutely insane.

Speaker 3 So what year seven?

Speaker 37 You're going to year seven?

Speaker 48 Year six.

Speaker 100 Year six.

Speaker 69 What have you learned in the first five years where you're like, this is what we have to do different to get over that final mountain?

Speaker 115 Because you guys have been a really, really good team and you've had those chances, but it just hasn't broken your way.

Speaker 74 Yeah, I mean, I think playing your best ball at the end of the year is the biggest key. And again, this league is crazy.
You're going to need some luck going your way.

Speaker 74 Injuries are a part of the game. And And last year, I think we got a little bit bitten by that.
But

Speaker 74 it takes a lot of different moving parts to win a Super Bowl. And there's only one team at the end of the season that's going to be happy that they won and this and that.

Speaker 74 But I think everybody gets lost during the season with the whole let's go win the Super Bowl thought instead of let's just get to the playoffs and give ourselves a chance. Right.

Speaker 74 Right, because you can't win the Super Bowl. You can't win the lottery if you don't buy a ticket.
You can't win the Super Bowl if you don't make the playoffs. So the playoffs is our Super Bowl ticket.

Speaker 74 And we got to figure out, again, just to find a way to get there. And then as soon as we get there, let's play our best ball.

Speaker 17 Yeah, and not getting too high and not getting too low.

Speaker 115 Because I felt like even last year, when you guys went into Kansas City early in the season, you beat them.

Speaker 115 That was like a, yeah, we got them back for the AFC championship game where it's like most of these teams that are there at the end, or sorry, it was a divisional round.

Speaker 115 Most of these teams at the end,

Speaker 17 they never too high, never too low.

Speaker 13 Every win, loss, like, I mean, the Colts beat the Chiefs last year.

Speaker 55 And that was crazy.

Speaker 74 And And that's the thing. Sometimes, like, a loss actually helps you.

Speaker 74 It refocuses your, it's like, all right, we should not have, like, what did we do during that week that caused us to lose that game? Like, why did we play off? Why,

Speaker 74 what caused things to go awry?

Speaker 116 Like,

Speaker 74 so sometimes those losses help more than wins do, and they kind of tell you who you are as a team, how you bounce back from things. So, and this sucks.

Speaker 74 Like, every game you want to go into and you want to win, but not every game is a must-win game. Right.
Right.

Speaker 47 Can't lose.

Speaker 13 Exactly.

Speaker 95 Yeah.

Speaker 74 But

Speaker 74 again, just finding a way to get into the playoffs and giving yourselves a chance. Yeah.

Speaker 63 Yeah.

Speaker 16 So what loss would you say was the most productive loss that you had last year?

Speaker 103 When you didn't cover the spread against the Packers.

Speaker 66 Not that anyone here bet on that.

Speaker 116 We didn't lose, though.

Speaker 74 We lost against the Factbacks.

Speaker 47 We lost that spread.

Speaker 14 That's important.

Speaker 47 Well, I mean, yeah,

Speaker 74 we were 13 and 3. I mean, we lost, I think, all three games by a combined eight or nine points.

Speaker 115 Miami game was crazy.

Speaker 74 Miami game was crazy.

Speaker 74 We were straight in the heat. And they construct that stadium too where it just beats down on the opposing team.

Speaker 74 It's crazy. It really is.

Speaker 74 The Jets game, losing to them, and then...

Speaker 47 Billy thought he won the Super Bowl after that.

Speaker 16 Was it the Vikings? Yeah.

Speaker 74 We learned a lot from the Vikings.

Speaker 16 That was crazy.

Speaker 74 Some weird situations. Again, we're backed up.

Speaker 74 Defense makes a crazy stop.

Speaker 74 We get the ball on the half-inch yard line, the fumble, they pick it up in in the end zone, they score. And

Speaker 74 we had the mental aptitude to go down in two-minute and score and tie the game, and then just threw a bad pick in the end zone. Yeah, sucks.

Speaker 16 It was such an insane ending to that game. I'm still convinced that Sean put too many men on the field on purpose.
It's like challenging, like, call it on me. I'll put 13 guys out there.

Speaker 16 We're on the half-inch line. What are you going to do? Half the distance to the goal.
Now you're at the quarter-inch line. I think that was on purpose.
Can you confirm or deny?

Speaker 95 Nope.

Speaker 99 Can you confirm or deny.

Speaker 47 We got to talk real quick about.

Speaker 104 You've been doing a lot of other content with other people.

Speaker 16 Which is fine.

Speaker 104 Which is fine.

Speaker 104 We have an open relationship.

Speaker 37 It's totally fine.

Speaker 40 But

Speaker 18 Daniel Ricardo, friend of ours, friend of yours.

Speaker 104 Good friend. Good friend.

Speaker 47 Okay, but if you had to pick, us or him.

Speaker 84 And we're not going to make you pick, but if you had to pick.

Speaker 74 But you did make me pick when you guys FaceTime me. Yeah.

Speaker 94 yeah i'm i'm

Speaker 74 i'm going with my man dancing rick oh come on can you name a quote can you name that quote though i gotta give to my man dancing rick who is that that's a it's a throwback movie i do like i'm a big movie quote guy so i'll throw out movie quotes throughout the day and just like name that movie dancing rick dancing rick i gotta give it to my man dancing rick who's that it's ben stiller and owen wilson oh

Speaker 16 Stars Kane Hutch. There we go.
That's kind of disgusting that that's a throwback movie, too.

Speaker 74 Yeah, that is. That is a throwback movie.
That's 1997, probably 98.

Speaker 47 That was like, I don't know. No, no, five years ago.

Speaker 16 Was it not? No, that was like 2004.

Speaker 47 I think it was 2000s, early 2000s.

Speaker 21 Are we too old for you? Is that the problem? No,

Speaker 17 you have a lot of young content creators.

Speaker 79 We're too old.

Speaker 116 We're not cool. What other content creators are you talking about?

Speaker 16 I don't know. Who are you talking to?

Speaker 57 Oh, you did some, you know, a golf video. I did some golf videos.

Speaker 26 We like those guys. Bob does sports.

Speaker 27 We love those guys. They're great.

Speaker 19 Great guys.

Speaker 104 But, you know, it just hurts me a little.

Speaker 74 Well, you guys don't.

Speaker 74 I've seen your golf in there.

Speaker 62 You know what?

Speaker 47 Oh, yeah.

Speaker 1 Let's get out of here.

Speaker 50 I beat Hank last week. Yeah.

Speaker 74 Did you break

Speaker 74 your golf?

Speaker 16 I did my job. I did my job.

Speaker 47 I'll put it that way. All right.

Speaker 17 Wait, so how is the golf game coming?

Speaker 45 I do have.

Speaker 86 You walked yourself into

Speaker 98 the moment with Tom Brady.

Speaker 117 We got to be better. You got to consult us before.

Speaker 74 Which one?

Speaker 47 When you had his combine picture on the golf ball, and then he put a Lombardi trophy.

Speaker 21 I was like, Josh, you ever seen one of these? Yeah.

Speaker 117 We got to...

Speaker 64 Like,

Speaker 55 that's one you should run by us.

Speaker 117 We can be like, all right, here's what his reaction will be.

Speaker 76 Don't put yourself in the middle.

Speaker 74 Yeah, sometimes I forget what the other side's going to do. Right, right.

Speaker 101 We can think ahead on the troll moves.

Speaker 47 Okay.

Speaker 27 We can read a defense very well when it comes to that. Perfect.

Speaker 55 Yeah.

Speaker 21 So you got to talk to me.

Speaker 34 And then you also, Aaron Rodgers cheated, right?

Speaker 6 He did.

Speaker 1 I'm a fan of Aaron Rodgers now.

Speaker 47 I love Aaron. Yeah.
But he did.

Speaker 6 He cheated.

Speaker 76 Yeah. He sandpad you.

Speaker 74 He's saying not just me.

Speaker 54 The world. The world.

Speaker 47 Yes. What did he do?

Speaker 74 He

Speaker 74 may have gotten just

Speaker 74 seven or eight strokes too many at Pebble Beach or nine pieces of shit

Speaker 74 I'm not coming then not I no not from me he's a great guy what other sources for safety I'm not saying

Speaker 50 no I think I think Aaron Rodgers should be in jail yeah nope I would never say that I would say a lot of the golfers maybe thought that too yeah you don't cheat on a golf on a golf course you don't were you more nervous for the match than a football game yes because I would imagine like you're putting down the the ball on the tee and your hand is just shaking.

Speaker 35 And everyone's a golf expert online.

Speaker 86 Yes.

Speaker 17 So like the minute you get up there and you and you tee off brother this guy stinks

Speaker 56 I Don't I don't do this. This is not my job.

Speaker 74 Right like I I love golf I love playing golf and I'm getting to a point now where it's like I'm getting better.

Speaker 90 Yeah,

Speaker 74 I feel good about my game right now

Speaker 74 So let's set up a date.

Speaker 90 Okay, and we'll go done.

Speaker 16 We're done in in so all of us except for Hank.

Speaker 74 Can I ask one question?

Speaker 51 Yeah

Speaker 74 the straight leg swing is

Speaker 47 control, right? No, that's my real swing.

Speaker 112 That's a troll swing.

Speaker 47 That's my real swing.

Speaker 100 That's a troll swing. Okay.

Speaker 19 Yeah. It's good, though.

Speaker 6 It gets people going.

Speaker 84 It does get people going.

Speaker 47 I used to do it when I was drunk with my friends when I would, like, at like whole 17, I was just bored because I get bored playing golf.

Speaker 26 I'd just be like, watch this drive.

Speaker 88 Like George Bush.

Speaker 26 Just fucking straight legs.

Speaker 37 And it usually goes straight.

Speaker 36 So I could, maybe I'll just do it the whole time we do the video.

Speaker 55 You and I be on a team and I'll just straight legs everything. Okay.

Speaker 47 I bet you we'll use my shot.

Speaker 60 Yeah. I bet you we'll use it.

Speaker 74 You and me versus you can pick your Hank.

Speaker 16 No, I was going to say,

Speaker 16 I'm going to take Brooks Keck.

Speaker 56 I'm going to take

Speaker 50 Max or Jake.

Speaker 47 No, I got Jake.

Speaker 47 Yeah.

Speaker 51 Love the new dog, by the way.

Speaker 14 Do you like Blake?

Speaker 16 I love Blake. He's a very good boy.
Do you have any dogs?

Speaker 47 No. I love dogs, though.

Speaker 16 That's a red flag.

Speaker 47 Yeah, that doesn't sound like that. I've had him in the past.

Speaker 109 Okay.

Speaker 62 Okay.

Speaker 16 You're going to get another one?

Speaker 116 Maybe soon.

Speaker 47 Okay. We'll see.

Speaker 15 What are we doing this year about

Speaker 37 protecting your health?

Speaker 103 Are we still mashing all the buttons sometimes?

Speaker 81 Or are there plays?

Speaker 31 Less. Less.

Speaker 37 So you are getting to a point where you're like, I'm not going to go crazy.

Speaker 100 Because Because when you do go crazy and mash all the buttons, it's the coolest thing ever.

Speaker 104 And you just like dominate people and run over guys.

Speaker 15 But I also,

Speaker 17 we watch all the games, obviously, together on Sundays in the gambling cave. And there's like a moment every Sunday where we collectively hold our breath because you're mashing all the buttons.

Speaker 26 And we're like, Josh, be careful, Josh, be careful.

Speaker 30 So you're going to think about it a little more.

Speaker 74 Yeah. Josh, be careful.
Josh, be quick.

Speaker 47 Yeah, just, yes.

Speaker 28 But just think about when you're doing that, think about us and how worried we are.

Speaker 47 Okay.

Speaker 27 Not my mom or my dad.

Speaker 22 No, it's us. You've had us.

Speaker 47 I'm best friends.

Speaker 16 Every time we talk, we've had this conversation going into every season. You're like, yeah, you know, I've learned that I got to protect my body.

Speaker 27 I got to be more careful sometimes.

Speaker 16 And then you get out there and you're like, fucking we both.

Speaker 13 Yeah.

Speaker 57 But I also don't hold it against you because if I had the ability to mash all the buttons like you do, I'd do it all the time.

Speaker 75 Yeah.

Speaker 99 Because it's got to feel cool when you're like, oh, I'm going to run over this linebacker.

Speaker 47 Sometimes.

Speaker 30 Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 16 You've also been talking a little bit more shit when you run people over. I like that.

Speaker 74 Yeah, you know, I've kind of gotten away from trash-talking.

Speaker 51 Trying to.

Speaker 74 You don't.

Speaker 74 If you trash talk me, it's like poke in the bear if you want. And

Speaker 74 I don't need to poke anybody. It's like, I'll handle my own business.
You do whatever you need to do. And I don't want to give anybody any added motivation.

Speaker 16 Is there a guy that's trash-talked to you? And you're like, okay, all right, let's see. And then you go out there and do something special to him?

Speaker 74 I mean, it's not just one guy, but I think as soon as anybody does that to me during a game, it's like it kind of flips a switch and just locks me in a little bit more.

Speaker 47 Yeah.

Speaker 115 Hierarchy in terms of coaching. Sean McDermott's obviously the head coach, but he's now the defensive coordinator.
Could you give him shit as a defensive coordinator?

Speaker 21 Be like, I'm talking to DC, Sean.

Speaker 47 You'd be like, you're an idiot.

Speaker 115 And then head coach, Sean, like, yes, sir, whatever you need.

Speaker 74 Love you, coach.

Speaker 62 Team's doing great.

Speaker 74 Yeah. No, it's kind of, it's a weird.

Speaker 74 Transition period right now where we're kind of getting used to it. Like he's coming up to me and like, hey, that was, you kicked my ass today.

Speaker 93 It's like, wait, huh?

Speaker 6 You're the head coach.

Speaker 74 Yeah, so I was like, oh, you're talking about the defense. I get it.
You know, so

Speaker 74 I can imagine that could be tough at some points.

Speaker 74 But the way that he's handled it, I think he's doing such a good job with Colin defense right now and switching things up and making my job really hard back there in terms of figuring out what's going on.

Speaker 74 He's throwing a lot of stuff at me.

Speaker 16 Yeah, so maybe you can stand up for head coach, Sean, at this point because

Speaker 16 Colin Cowherd, fake soup guy, overall weasel, did his listing of the top 10 quarterback coach combos in the league. He had you guys at eight.

Speaker 16 You and Sean at eight.

Speaker 16 Is he poking the bear right now?

Speaker 109 I don't care.

Speaker 83 Yeah.

Speaker 74 I don't care about none of that.

Speaker 47 Yeah. Put your hat backwards.

Speaker 75 Yeah, but put your hat backwards. Oh, yeah.

Speaker 47 Yeah. Oh, he's going to be so.

Speaker 13 Okay.

Speaker 50 Now he's 12.

Speaker 16 Now he's number 13.

Speaker 50 14. It's a quarterback.

Speaker 95 You're dropping.

Speaker 34 I love it. I love it.

Speaker 17 All right, Josh.

Speaker 12 I have one last question.

Speaker 104 We love having you on.

Speaker 118 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 118 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 118 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 118 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 100 We actually just did a Bill's media thing where they came and they just asked us about you and they asked us what your work in the community, like talk about Josh's work in the community.

Speaker 28 We don't actually know what you do in the community.

Speaker 115 So we just were like, Josh is incredible in the community, all the stuff he does in the community.

Speaker 115 Do you want to shout out your work in the community?

Speaker 29 Because you are.

Speaker 19 Everyone, whoever asked me, they're like, what's Josh Allen?

Speaker 5 Like, I'm like, he is genuinely just a great dude.

Speaker 57 And the money hasn't changed him.

Speaker 115 The fame hasn't changed him.

Speaker 55 And I think that shows with your work in the community.

Speaker 34 Yes. Yeah.
You still could do a heel to me.

Speaker 60 I don't know. We could help you with that.

Speaker 84 But what's the big thing you're doing right now?

Speaker 69 Because I did feel bad after we did it.

Speaker 112 It's like, we literally don't know anything he's doing in the community.

Speaker 76 We just know he's in the community.

Speaker 74 No, I think

Speaker 74 the Patricia Allen Fund at Oshai Children's Hospital is something that I love helping out with and just trying to raise money for kids and families that are going through unfortunate times.

Speaker 74 You know, I think I can recall as a kid, my brother had a rare disease and him spending some time in a children's hospital back in Fresno Valley Children's.

Speaker 74 And just remember my feeling, remember seeing my parents, how they were feeling, how my brother was feeling.

Speaker 74 It's something that I love to take part in and raising money for these families because I feel like I've been there.

Speaker 74 And

Speaker 74 just little things like that, man. I've got some really great partners and you talk about Westhur donating a lot of money to the Patricia Allen Fund.

Speaker 74 I think we've raised over, was it now, three and a half million dollars for that fund. And it started because my grandmother passed away after or right before the Seahawks game a couple of years ago.

Speaker 74 And somehow there was like one fan that found out. I don't know really how he did.
And he tweeted, like, let's donate $17

Speaker 74 to the the O Shai Children's Hospital in honor of his grandmother. And, you know, the next couple of days, it got up to like $10,000, $15,000.
And I was just,

Speaker 74 it was like, wow, I can't believe people would do that.

Speaker 74 And fast forward to now where we are, millions of dollars being raised for families and kids and buying technology to help doctors in there and nurses in there give these kids the best help that they can.

Speaker 31 I love really great.

Speaker 16 That's also such a classic Bills fan story. Yeah, I feel like they do that a lot, where they find out that somebody needs something, don't even ask for it, but they just spring into action.

Speaker 108 Yeah, so yeah, good fan base, great fan base here.

Speaker 50 I love it.

Speaker 16 And they will build a statue of you if you win a Super Bowl.

Speaker 108 Let's just go win a Super Bowl. No violence.

Speaker 47 Have you thought about that?

Speaker 46 Have you thought? Because, like, there is

Speaker 37 great sports stories.

Speaker 17 There's only a few left out there. You know, like the Cubs won a World Series.

Speaker 12 Like, there's, you know, LeBron went back to Cleveland and won an NBA title. Like

Speaker 57 being a quarterback for the Bills to win a Super Bowl.

Speaker 30 Like, have you had that?

Speaker 21 It gives me chills even saying it.

Speaker 22 Yeah.

Speaker 22 It's cool.

Speaker 115 It's just cool to be like, like, going after that thing that is so elusive to a community.

Speaker 90 Yeah

Speaker 74 All I know is that I have like dreams of what that parade would look like.

Speaker 90 Yeah, it's gonna be yeah, we'll be there.

Speaker 116 It'd be amazing.

Speaker 61 Yeah, oh one last last thing your Halloween party this year.

Speaker 16 We were talking to Vaughn earlier because you you have the Halloween party here in Buffalo. He had his in Denver.
Yep. So he's kind of let you he's like, okay, I'm not the Halloween guy here.

Speaker 16 That's Josh Right across the border is Toronto. Our good friend Chad Kelly's up there.
You got to to invite Chad Kelly to your Halloween party.

Speaker 12 Noted Von Miller Hall of Fame attendant of all.

Speaker 74 Can I bleed the fifth to any of this?

Speaker 62 Yeah, yeah, yeah, of course.

Speaker 74 Wing nuts. I saw you guys.

Speaker 91 Yeah, yeah, yeah, we're at Wingnuts. It's a great segue.

Speaker 34 Wingnuts. You still got to go.

Speaker 74 Have you guys tried Room 40 yet?

Speaker 62 No. No.

Speaker 97 It's really good. We're loyal to Wing Nuts.

Speaker 51 Try it, though.

Speaker 16 It's here.

Speaker 74 It's like down the street here.

Speaker 16 I was talking to Ed yesterday, and he was sharing all the great success that he's had recently and the best moments of having this restaurant and how he's opening up the new one.

Speaker 16 And mentioned some guys on the bills. I was like, Has Josh been there yet?

Speaker 61 He said, No, you know, I haven't. I haven't seen Josh.

Speaker 74 And it's just in the North Towns, right?

Speaker 39 So they're opening a new location, though, by the University of Buffalo.

Speaker 13 I don't know if that's anywhere in the world.

Speaker 47 Yeah, okay.

Speaker 90 It's even further up.

Speaker 47 Okay, wow.

Speaker 66 But swinging a miss.

Speaker 104 Go here.

Speaker 39 It's

Speaker 47 room 40. Okay.

Speaker 116 Yeah, it's a really good spot. Okay.

Speaker 50 All right. Well, we'll get it.
I'll go if you go to Wingnuts.

Speaker 90 Deal. Deal.

Speaker 47 Okay. Wait, where are you guys going to go?

Speaker 74 Room 40. Room 40 is nuts in your mouth.

Speaker 56 Oh,

Speaker 96 What a walk-off.

Speaker 13 What a fucking walk-off.

Speaker 22 We got Mike next.

Speaker 75 God damn it. Yes.

Speaker 16 We got Mike next.

Speaker 51 You got any questions that we should? Did you want to ask him?

Speaker 74 Who? Mike?

Speaker 74 Tony Hawk's brother, Mike?

Speaker 27 Yeah, Mike Hawk. Yeah.

Speaker 95 Fuck.

Speaker 58 I can't believe you got us.

Speaker 76 That feels so good. Yeah, that does.

Speaker 47 How was I supposed to win?

Speaker 54 Fuck.

Speaker 52 All right, well, I'll go.

Speaker 31 I'll go to room 40.

Speaker 109 Damn.

Speaker 90 Yeah.

Speaker 100 I was excited to go try room 40.

Speaker 83 All right, thank you, Josh.

Speaker 47 Go, Bill.

Speaker 95 You got us.

Speaker 10 Whether I'm hosting game day at my place or taking my talents to the tailgate, Boar's Head is my go-to for a spread that's as exciting as the game itself. Their platters are a hit every time.

Speaker 10 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 10 My personal favorite, the blazing buffalo chicken, hummus, or even one of their charcuterie collections for game-changing flavor.

Speaker 10 Boarshead helps me elevate my entertaining every time, whether it's for a tailgate or a home gating celebration.

Speaker 10 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 37 Okay, we now welcome on a very special guest, recurring guest.

Speaker 7 It is Buffalo Bills head coach, Sean McDermott, on Grit Week. So let's start there.

Speaker 86 How would you define the word grit?

Speaker 46 What does it mean to you?

Speaker 78 Yeah, I mean, I think it means mental toughness, right? Which I'm a big believer in and big proponent of. I think you got to have that in life overall these days.

Speaker 16 Yeah. Is that why you guys are back in the dorms this year? Yeah.
This is a very gritty environment. It does feel like a little bit of a throwback.

Speaker 78 Yeah. And yesterday we lost power, so we went about, which was classic.

Speaker 79 Intentional.

Speaker 78 That was intentional. Nice.

Speaker 73 Yeah.

Speaker 73 Cut it.

Speaker 54 I heard that.

Speaker 68 I heard that comment.

Speaker 78 No, we did it intentionally just to kind of get back to our roots.

Speaker 78 We only were able to have deli sandwiches for lunch. And so it, yeah, it was just kind of like back to the olden days.
Yeah.

Speaker 16 So in the dorms, do you have a NARC? Do you have like an RA that's in charge of keeping tabs on the bottom?

Speaker 78 You know, it's funny. There's signs still on the hallways that say, like,

Speaker 67 hey,

Speaker 78 keep it down after a certain time. And because the walls are really thin.
And so it makes me laugh that, you know, that's some of the stuff that still goes on. Yeah, like it did with

Speaker 59 athletes. Yeah.

Speaker 78 No, it's from.

Speaker 55 No, I'm saying the professional athletes have to deal with it.

Speaker 78 Oh, they got to see that.

Speaker 73 Yeah.

Speaker 78 Now, last night outside of my room, one of our players pulled up. He had this music pumping.

Speaker 78 I'm trying to get some sleep, you know, and I'm just like, I couldn't wait till curfew for him to have to go inside. Yeah.
You know, because it was right outside my dorm room. And I'm just like

Speaker 100 and i'm just like yeah all right let's go sign you're getting old i have exactly turn down the music please yeah there's no way to say turn down the music and not feel like an old guy i know no wake zone yeah no wake zone so last year crazy year very emotional year for you guys what going into this season um you had there had to have been a little bit obviously didn't end well against the bengals but a little bit after the season being like wow that was nuts what we went through like it's going to be nice to start clean, fresh.

Speaker 46 Is there any residual from like, you know, the DeMar thing,

Speaker 48 the Bengals loss, where, or are you guys clean page? Let's, let's move forward here.

Speaker 78 Yeah, you know, every year there's diversity in the NFL on a team's journey. And last year just happened to, it came in

Speaker 78 in the form of a tidal wave, really, through the things you mentioned.

Speaker 78 But I think you carry, as much as you want to turn the page, and that's important, I think three-fourths of that's true, but you do carry about 25% of that with you in the form of some muscle, you know, as you learn, you know, kind of a little bit about yourself, about your teammates, about the organization, and then our community.

Speaker 78 And I think it's to me, we carry it forward with us in the way of mental and physical muscle and strength.

Speaker 22 Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 16 I've been reading a lot of stuff coming out of this camp. Apparently, the offense is looking pretty good.
How would you grade the job that your defensive coordinator is doing?

Speaker 79 Yeah,

Speaker 78 that remains to be seen. I mean, he has some good days and some bad bad days, and if he doesn't get his crap together, I'm going to can him.

Speaker 16 Yeah, how do you evaluate yourself, head coach evaluating defensive coordinator Sean?

Speaker 78 Yeah,

Speaker 78 I talk to myself in the third person when I do that. You know,

Speaker 49 it's interesting.

Speaker 54 Yeah.

Speaker 47 What the hell were you thinking?

Speaker 47 God damn it.

Speaker 78 Well, I had a couple calls yesterday. I told the defense in the meeting after practice, I said, hey, that's on me.

Speaker 78 I didn't put you in position, right?

Speaker 78 But no,

Speaker 78 that's the kind of tear or the pull as a head coach anyway.

Speaker 78 When you're an offensive, defensive guy, you, you think you can never have a great practice because when you're going against each other, you know, it's never even, right?

Speaker 78 So you can never walk away and go, hey, that was a great practice. The offense played well, defense played well.
That just doesn't happen. When one side plays well, the other side probably doesn't.
So

Speaker 78 it's a

Speaker 22 mental pull. So

Speaker 29 not controversy, but a lot of talk about the fact that you put the Lombardi up in the facility, so on a banner.

Speaker 78 No, don't stir it up. Here we go.

Speaker 37 I'm just asking, we are superstitious guys.

Speaker 80 I think that was a dumb move.

Speaker 78 It was internally,

Speaker 78 it's our internal purposes only. And really, it has nothing to do with anything outside or

Speaker 78 expectations outside. It's more of just believing in keeping one's vision and one's goals in front of them at all times.

Speaker 78 And as a daily reminder, because as we as you guys mentioned a few minutes ago there's a ton of adversity that tries to cloud one's vision in terms of get in the way of the goal and and so it should be a goal every year

Speaker 78 not only this year but every year and we have a hundred percent respect for all of our opponents it's just really about us keeping our focus internally on what we're trying to accomplish no i actually i actually like that it is it's just it's crazy that becomes a story it's funny because the controversy is an FL head coach wants to win Super Bowl did you think that's not Come on, have some class.

Speaker 47 Have some class.

Speaker 47 Did you think about the clock, though?

Speaker 48 Because I'm more of a clock guy than a put up the Lombardi, like the countdown to the Super Bowl kickoff.

Speaker 112 Big clock in the facility.

Speaker 47 Yeah.

Speaker 55 That one kind of always gets me going.

Speaker 78 Yeah, you know, I've been to some colleges and they have that countdown clock to the first opponent and the countdown and so forth through the season to the second, third, and whatnot opponent.

Speaker 78 But, you know, I don't know.

Speaker 78 We just take it one step at a time. That's really what we're all about.
We're about respecting our opponents and putting in the work.

Speaker 29 Are those moments when you put up a banner with a Lombardi and being like, this is what we're going for?

Speaker 80 And then the media is like, Sean McDermott puts up the Lombardi.

Speaker 8 You're like, how is this a story?

Speaker 78 It's training camp. Yeah.
Right. And so everyone's got it.
They have a job to do also.

Speaker 79 They got a job to do.

Speaker 111 They got people. We've got our job in the media.

Speaker 16 We pay your salary, actually.

Speaker 47 There's no league without us. That's right.
That's a fact.

Speaker 52 You're playing in a parking lot.

Speaker 16 Nobody would know that the football games were going on if me and Big Cat didn't caught them on Monday morning.

Speaker 79 Right, exactly.

Speaker 16 So we can maybe cover up for that. Throw us some red meat.
What else are you guys doing?

Speaker 78 Some red meat.

Speaker 16 Yeah, what else are you guys doing here at camp that's a little bit out of the ordinary that we can use to deflect from the fact that you're very disrespectfully telling everyone that we want to win a Super Bowl?

Speaker 78 No, we just mind our own business up here. I mean, we try and go

Speaker 78 get to know each other when we're up here. Guys play some cards.
You know, they kind of bond a little bit up here. And there's not a lot of teams that still go away, right?

Speaker 78 I think probably less than a third of the teams go away we like to go away i think it gets guys out of the house and gets them a little bit more focused on building uh our team and and the bonds that are necessary to build the chemistry and and the camaraderie and and then put in the work that needs to be put in uh at least through the first um you know third or first half of training camp and then we'll go home yeah we've kind of been um at the forefront of reminding people that they should respect your ability to kick ass as what you were a two-time

Speaker 16 state champion yeah two-time national prep school champion when's the last time you wrestled somebody I don't know.

Speaker 78 In my mind, every day.

Speaker 112 Yeah. Oh, I like that.
Yeah.

Speaker 78 You sit across from someone and you're just saying, hey, I think I could kick you.

Speaker 19 Do you size us up? Yeah. Are you sizing us up every room you walk into?

Speaker 78 Yeah, are you sizing me up?

Speaker 14 I'm definitely sizing up.

Speaker 16 I'll size you up the second you step into this room.

Speaker 109 Really?

Speaker 47 I love that. I love that, man.

Speaker 78 Yeah. That's awesome.
Yeah.

Speaker 109 That's a freaking wrestler's mindset.

Speaker 51 I don't know. Well, I don't know about that.

Speaker 78 That sounds kind of weird, but

Speaker 59 I go low.

Speaker 16 yeah I go around the neck we'd hold you down really these big cat could kick your ass

Speaker 96 do that way

Speaker 78 when we're done when we're done we'll just do that if if if you're a wrestler you have that and you wrestle for you know a number of years you develop that mindset of

Speaker 69 you know you feel you could kick anybody's ass yeah there I we we work with a guy who wrestled at Kent State and he always will like give a little like you know, the shoot and I'm always like, no, dude, I don't want that.

Speaker 48 Because wrestlers are a different breed.

Speaker 78 And it's kind of like, I guess, like martial arts. And I've never done martial arts,

Speaker 78 but it's in a respectful, it's a respectful mindset. Like, you don't use it unless you have to, but it's always in your mind of it's there.
Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 16 Is there a part of you that wishes that you had gotten Cauliflower Ear?

Speaker 78 I did a little bit. I had to get this one drained.
Oh.

Speaker 78 Yeah,

Speaker 78 my last season.

Speaker 16 That's always a good look, though. Like, if you see somebody with Cauliflower Ear, instantly you're like, not going to mess with that.

Speaker 47 Respect, yeah. No.

Speaker 78 Total respect. I'll tell you what's even better is if

Speaker 78 you watch the NCAA

Speaker 78 finals, okay, you watch the NCAA finals, the interviews that they do,

Speaker 78 Quinn Snyder, I think, does it after

Speaker 78 the final matches. He interviews the winner of the match, and what they say, you should record it.
It's lessons in life, right? It's just powerful.

Speaker 43 Yeah, those guys are just, they're badasses.

Speaker 88 They go through hell, basically.

Speaker 81 It's a wrestle every week.

Speaker 109 Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 78 And that's not Quinn Snyder. I think it's another Quinn Snyder.

Speaker 54 We'll edit that out.

Speaker 19 We'll edit this whole interview out.

Speaker 78 The whole thing just

Speaker 102 crazy, crazy story that I want to get your take on.

Speaker 38 You were delayed for a flight was canceled in Atlanta.

Speaker 89 Yeah. You met a random Bills fan.
You flew to Pittsburgh, and then you and the random Bills fan, I think your daughter all drove back together to Buffalo.

Speaker 83 Yeah.

Speaker 85 That actually probably ties into you being like, I can kick anyone's ass, knowing, like, hey, I can, it doesn't matter.

Speaker 78 Put a complete stranger in my car next to me.

Speaker 59 I'll whoop him if I'm at midnight.

Speaker 22 So, what was that like?

Speaker 19 I mean, was he just asking you a million questions about the bills?

Speaker 35 That's an insane story, and also one of the coolest stories for a fan.

Speaker 78 Yeah, no, so check this out. So, we were flying out of Atlanta, we get canceled, which many flights get canceled these days, right? And so,

Speaker 78 in true Buffalo fashion, we're flying standby, and my daughter and myself are like, we're like number 19 and 20 of like 40 people trying to fly standby to get back to Buffalo.

Speaker 78 And of course, we don't make it, but there's only three people that made it. And each time that person's name got announced in true Buffalo fashion, people were clapping in the gate for them.

Speaker 78 Like usually it's feast or famine. Like everyone's just trying to, you know, hey, give me your pass to get on board.
And everyone's clapping for people who are making it, right?

Speaker 78 There was a a young uh young mother and her and her young child and so everyone's feeling good about them and then the rest of us are saying hey do you want to drive back we're kind of teaming up again in buffalo fashion and then we end up flying to pittsburgh and that's the story you you heard you read and um so my daughter and i are going to pittsburgh and someone comes into the gate and um this this this uh buffalo fan and he says hey how are you getting back from Pittsburgh to Buffalo?

Speaker 78 And I said, we got a car, which it was hard to get. I mean, usually, especially late late at night right

Speaker 78 and so we get this car and I wait for him in the baggage area and off we go he's I he sits in the front next to me my daughter's in the back eventually she falls asleep and we're driving three hours from Pittsburgh Pennsylvania to Buffalo and talking about you name it right the bills his coaching career as a young coach and very passionate about it and

Speaker 78 And then, you know, he did tell me, he said, hey, I live right near you. And it turned out to be,

Speaker 78 you know,

Speaker 78 at 3 a.m. in the morning.
That's not 10 minutes away. It's not 15 minutes away.
It's not right near me.

Speaker 78 I thought he meant like the neighborhood over. Right.

Speaker 16 He probably wasn't even from Buffalo.

Speaker 50 He just like

Speaker 50 a huge broken.

Speaker 62 He got some chill in the car with a shock.

Speaker 78 But I think he has said his part of the story. And it was, I think, cool thing for him.
But I got to tell you, it was just as cool for me just to.

Speaker 78 you know, talk shop, talk to a Buffalo Bills fan and get his perspective on things. And

Speaker 78 that's, again, what's unique to Buffalo, right? Is the community, the bond with the community, the oneness. I think it's pretty special.

Speaker 55 Did he give you any tips or anything where you're like, all right, enough talking?

Speaker 89 Because if I were sitting with you, I'd be like, hey, have you, you know, have you thought about

Speaker 16 more fullback Hail Marys?

Speaker 40 Yeah, or like fake punches.

Speaker 78 Fullback Hail Marys, yeah.

Speaker 16 You guys tried that. Was that against Houston?

Speaker 90 Yeah.

Speaker 16 Yeah, that was a nice play. Yeah,

Speaker 78 fullback Hail Mary.

Speaker 115 Yeah, or I would have brought up the, which we, when last time you were on, like, hey, why didn't you leave Nathan Peterman on?

Speaker 112 We were in the game.

Speaker 59 We were going for a record here yeah

Speaker 78 we he brought up some of those uh and then i just said hey listen we're not going to talk to the rest of the trip

Speaker 78 we're going to put the playbook next next one that talks is is uh you know whatever so we played that game for a while yeah

Speaker 78 that's such an awesome story uh as a coach have you reached the point where uh you just have stopped having the discussion with josh allen to try to protect himself because you know that he's just going to go nuts no matter what and at the end of a play he's going to try to extend it and being safe is nice in theory but then in practice once the blood gets going josh is going to be josh yeah no i tell him i say listen listen when you before you came on this job for me in 2018 i had a full head of red hair and ever since that day it just keeps falling out because i keep saying to you play smart play smart you know um no but he's listen i i don't i don't think you ever change part you know totally that part because or that piece it's part of what makes him who he is he's very competitive person and player and um it's what's made him great right so it's just it's just adjusting right and that's what you do in your golf game you adjust things you tweak things and i think he just needs to as he knows as he said adjust some things and it's about keeping him healthy so we can win and it's hard to win when you don't have your starting quarterback yeah and it also so last year it felt like there were times when the offense

Speaker 69 it was like kind of a boomer bust, throwing it deep, not being able to get maybe those like long drives, middle of the field.

Speaker 40 It feels like drafting Dalton Kincaid,

Speaker 103 trying to maybe get some more slot receivers.

Speaker 17 Is that something you're focusing on? Like, hey, let's get some of these underneath yards, knowing that the defense is going to play us a certain way because of Josh's arm talent.

Speaker 78 Yeah, I think if we just, we want to get like 20 play drives going and just not give, I think, just one possession each half.

Speaker 66 Yeah, like Army, Army, Navy.

Speaker 78 Army, Navy. Wing T, you know, option, triple option, get under center.
So we'll probably do a little bit of that, probably a little bit of getting the ball to Dalton

Speaker 78 Kincaid from time to time, and then,

Speaker 78 I don't know, maybe like the fullback dive

Speaker 78 series.

Speaker 78 There's a lot of things you can do off of that.

Speaker 21 There is scoring too fast.

Speaker 54 I don't want to bring it up, but there is.

Speaker 79 It does exist. I'm aware of that.
Yes.

Speaker 78 I'm aware of that.

Speaker 16 It's basically a turnover that you happen to get points for. Yeah.
And then your defense is back out on the field. Right.

Speaker 22 I would never want to throw a bomb.

Speaker 106 No.

Speaker 16 I mean, listen, we're commanders and bears fans here. We hate scoring fast.

Speaker 49 Scoring fast is a problem. Yeah.

Speaker 43 Because you also have a certain amount of points and you don't want to use them all right away.

Speaker 78 It's like, yeah, like in

Speaker 78 it's that'll probably be that'll probably come up in like one of these video games that like the old Tecmobole. You guys remember that? Yeah, that was Nintendo.

Speaker 78 Brings me back to my best friend. He got his dad, he was getting bad grades, so his dad ripped his Nintendo out of the wall and threw it in the cul-de-sac

Speaker 78 in the street and at his house. Like as a dad, you have time to think through that, right?

Speaker 78 Not only are you mad, yeah, but you rip it out of the wall, you march it from the back of the house to the front of the house, and you have time to catch yourself, like, what am I doing?

Speaker 78 Throwing like a $500 thing in the middle of the street um and scarring my kid

Speaker 69 and and doing so but uh he got better grades after that so yeah the move definitely move my best friend uh dad did was and i i still think how genius it was i'm gonna pull it on my kid someday uh he took the power cord and he said he hit it but he really just put it in his car and took it to work every day so we would just like we spent the entire week looking for this cord and then on friday like oh i got the cord and then we didn't feel realize for like a year that he was just taking it to work every day day.

Speaker 78 Yeah, it's torturing.

Speaker 78 But smart. That's high level.
That's high-level parenting.

Speaker 16 You're walking the Nintendo out to the street.

Speaker 16 At some point, you're at the end of your driveway and you're thinking to yourself, I really shouldn't be doing this, but they're watching me, and so I have to go through with it. I'm committed.

Speaker 16 If I turn back right now, I'll look like a wimp. And then you just throw it out of the street and destroy it on purpose.

Speaker 78 And you just launch it.

Speaker 78 What do the neighbors think, number one? And then do you go clean it up?

Speaker 16 They probably think that you stink it at the video game.

Speaker 79 They're like, man, this is a good idea.

Speaker 78 You got mad at the video game.

Speaker 78 This neighbor of ours, this dad must play video games like crazy and he's pissed off.

Speaker 115 We're a truth podcast.

Speaker 103 We never speculate.

Speaker 115 We never have takes that are unfounded in facts.

Speaker 103 So we want to help you right here.

Speaker 17 How's Stephon Dix? Everything's good?

Speaker 50 He's great.

Speaker 1 Because that was a lot.

Speaker 17 I mean, people were saying crazy things.

Speaker 85 We would never say crazy things.

Speaker 47 We would never speculate.

Speaker 16 I think Hank said that he was basically quitting football. Yeah.

Speaker 16 We had to jump in and take your side.

Speaker 101 Like, hey, let's wait for all the facts to come up.

Speaker 31 We're not going to just throw it.

Speaker 16 Hank said that he didn't even report to camp or he didn't even show up here. And I was like, Hank, that's not true.
But Hank is just living in a world of fake news.

Speaker 78 Yeah, we'll get Hank right after this here.

Speaker 47 But how do you deal with it? Do you feel good? Yeah, how do you deal with that?

Speaker 69 In a situation where it's like the media is snowballing and you know the facts, and it's like, it's hard to kind of pull it back and be like, hey, look, listen, guys, like, we're good.

Speaker 78 Yeah, well, we keep trying to keep team business, you know, team business. And

Speaker 78 at the end of the day, it's about

Speaker 78 getting on the same page, and then those take good, healthy conversations, and then we move forward, and that's what you do.

Speaker 78 And we're in a good spot, and the team's in a good spot, and we move forward.

Speaker 16 Yeah.

Speaker 16 There's a lot of good Irish coaches in the NFL right now. Have you noticed that?

Speaker 78 I love this. Yeah.
Tell me where you're going with this.

Speaker 59 Oh, no.

Speaker 16 I'm just, I want to get your thoughts on it. What is it about Irish guys that makes them good leaders?

Speaker 78 Let's talk about the Irish coaches.

Speaker 16 McDermott, McVay, Shanahan, O'Connell, McCarthy, McDaniel, McDaniels.

Speaker 16 A lot of Irish guys out there.

Speaker 78 Yeah, no, you're right. I didn't even notice that, really.
So that's almost a third. You mentioned about, what, seven?

Speaker 47 Yeah, seven.

Speaker 50 I probably left a couple out, too.

Speaker 16 Yeah. That's just off the top of my head.

Speaker 78 Guys that are Irish that you don't even know they're Irish. Yeah.

Speaker 52 Right. Right.

Speaker 98 Tomlin.

Speaker 22 He might be Irish.

Speaker 103 He has limericks all the time.

Speaker 16 Mm-hmm.

Speaker 47 Right. Just like random players.

Speaker 78 Yeah, he's a wordsmith.

Speaker 73 Yeah.

Speaker 78 I had the honor and the pleasure of playing with Mike in college, and

Speaker 78 he

Speaker 78 was the same way back then. Just saying things? Great leader.

Speaker 78 Great leader. Had great command of the English language

Speaker 78 and had great control of his eyes at all times, which I love watching his press conferences. Yes.
Just watching those two things,

Speaker 78 hearing what he says and watching his eyes.

Speaker 109 Yeah.

Speaker 78 Yeah. I love that guy.

Speaker 54 He's taught me a lot.

Speaker 106 He locks in.

Speaker 16 When he locks in on you, it seems pretty intimidating for any reporter that's asking the question. It's a good quality to have, I think, in a head coach.

Speaker 60 Or as a dad. Yeah.
Yeah. Right?

Speaker 47 True.

Speaker 23 Eyes everywhere. Eyes in the back of your head.

Speaker 19 Does it hurt a little more if you lose to a friend?

Speaker 57 Like, does like it, you know, I think it was a week one a couple years ago.

Speaker 12 Like, does that sting a little more if you're going up against a friend versus a guy you have no relationship with?

Speaker 78 Yeah, thanks for bringing that back up.

Speaker 47 Yeah, sorry.

Speaker 51 Well, your other friend ain't going to be a good person.

Speaker 78 This is about grit, though. This is about grit.
Yeah, so the grit tour. So,

Speaker 78 yeah, no, it's,

Speaker 78 you know, whether it's Andy, and I'm fortunate, I've been around some really good coaches who have gone on to become head coaches, many out there now. And,

Speaker 78 yeah, there's always that. It's kind of like, in some ways, you know, going against your brother in the backyard.

Speaker 78 And as much as you pull for him when you're not playing them, when you play them, you want to beat them.

Speaker 78 And they want to beat us, beat me. And,

Speaker 78 yeah, you kind of put a little bit more into it. Yeah.

Speaker 16 Do you miss having Brian Daybull around?

Speaker 47 Yeah.

Speaker 16 You miss his D's Nuts jokes?

Speaker 78 I'm not going there.

Speaker 95 I'm not going there.

Speaker 95 I'm not going there.

Speaker 5 All right. Well, last question.

Speaker 17 This has been awesome.

Speaker 29 We asked this to Dan Campbell when we were in Detroit.

Speaker 50 Just talk about football.

Speaker 27 What does football mean to you? And it's okay if you want to cry.

Speaker 26 He's got a little misty-eyed.

Speaker 78 What does football mean to you? Yeah.

Speaker 78 What did he say?

Speaker 19 He literally was about to cry.

Speaker 80 He just talked about the game and how much he loves it.

Speaker 98 Yeah.

Speaker 98 What it's done for him.

Speaker 78 Yeah, I was thinking about it this morning. I was working out this morning, and it's the first day of pads for us here at camp.
And that feeling never changes.

Speaker 78 And I don't even play anymore, and I've never played in the NFL.

Speaker 78 But when you play from the time you're growing up, you know, as a little guy, to the time you're in junior, high, high school, then college, and now for these guys as professionals, the young professionals and now the older professionals, I was talking to one of our veterans this morning.

Speaker 78 He said, really, the feeling doesn't change. It's the same.
You're always a little bit on edge, a little quiet. That's how the dining hall was in college.
That's how it was this morning.

Speaker 78 Everybody's kind of in their own headspace, right?

Speaker 78 But I also think about like, this is what I love to do. You know, I was walking around, driving around the track this morning, like, this is what I love to do, man.
I love coaching football.

Speaker 78 I love competing.

Speaker 78 And that doesn't change. And it's provided a livelihood for me and my family in an incredible way.
What a blessing it's been.

Speaker 78 And I'm humbled by it, right? To have this opportunity to go out and lead a group of

Speaker 78 men on the field and women and

Speaker 78 try and improve every day and embrace that growth mindset. I think

Speaker 78 it's unique, but special at the same time.

Speaker 16 Yeah, I read that you're you are a big mindset guy What is it?

Speaker 16 I hear people talk about the importance of mindset and and I guess various ways of looking at and how that affects you know you from mental side but also physical side

Speaker 16 when you say that you're a big mindset guy What does that mean?

Speaker 78 Well, you know, I go it goes back for me when I was young my mom and dad gave when we were wrestling gave my brother and I a book on mental toughness on grit basically

Speaker 78 it's probably

Speaker 78 one of the core cornerstones of mental toughness training these days, and I can see the book in my mind still, and I've kept it.

Speaker 78 So I just think it's important to have that in life and in sports in particular. I mean,

Speaker 78 life challenges you

Speaker 78 and sports, professional football challenges you in a lot of ways, in particular mentally. All these players have the physical capabilities, but who has the mental capabilities?

Speaker 78 Because you've got to train the mental even more than you you got to train the physical.

Speaker 90 Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 16 We're mega mindset.

Speaker 82 Yeah, we are mega.

Speaker 57 Well, thank you, coach.

Speaker 103 Last time we had you on, you did say that we could live at your house if we wanted to, to go to Wingnuts, so we might still take you up on your house.

Speaker 26 We went last night, so

Speaker 78 yeah, did you go by my house or not?

Speaker 29 No, we're going to go tonight. We're going to stay in the house.

Speaker 79 Yeah.

Speaker 78 Just make sure you put sheets on the bed.

Speaker 47 Okay. Yeah.
You would get a bed.

Speaker 73 That's huge.

Speaker 78 I thought we were going to be on and take my dog out while you're there.

Speaker 47 I'm going to follow your your dog. What kind of dog is it?

Speaker 78 His name's Champ. He's a burner doodle.

Speaker 16 Okay. Is that jinning yourself?

Speaker 111 You're jinxing yourself.

Speaker 16 You jinxed it with a dog.

Speaker 78 No, we just, hey, it's developing a mindset in the McDermott household.

Speaker 47 There you go. Yeah.
Yeah, I mean, my dog's ring.

Speaker 48 A dog name.

Speaker 78 What do you want to call him? First-round exit.

Speaker 78 Never won.

Speaker 66 Hey, never won.

Speaker 47 Come on over here. Right?

Speaker 78 Never won. You think you'd answer to that?

Speaker 47 Yeah, no. Right? No.

Speaker 78 He'd be trying to jump the fence and get out of there as soon as he could, man.

Speaker 47 Yeah, that's true. Dogs know.

Speaker 78 We're trying to train his mindset too.

Speaker 21 Coach, thank you as always.

Speaker 100 You're the best, and best of luck this year.

Speaker 74 All right, thanks, guys. Good day.

Speaker 17 All right, Mount Rushmore time. I was laughing because when we were about to do the ads, we're sitting in a hole and we don't have our computers.

Speaker 103 And PFT was like, My phone's about to die.

Speaker 80 Can I borrow yours?

Speaker 98 And I was like, no problem.

Speaker 17 And your phone is dead.

Speaker 57 And as you were saying that, Hank pulled out his phone that is plugged into a Mophy in his pocket.

Speaker 79 Hank, can I borrow that Mofi?

Speaker 56 Scumbag move.

Speaker 47 I are.

Speaker 105 PFT's been here.

Speaker 13 You had two pairs of gloves this whole time?

Speaker 58 That's literally what just happened.

Speaker 63 Hang on, hang on, hang on.

Speaker 16 Let me put the cap on this body armor.

Speaker 4 How many times have you used this mofie this week?

Speaker 16 Once.

Speaker 16 Good question, Hank.

Speaker 38 Okay, Mount Rush wartime.

Speaker 18 It is, what's the score for

Speaker 19 big cap. He's just hate me.

Speaker 84 You stopped smoking wheat.

Speaker 19 That's what you did.

Speaker 4 How is that an affront to you?

Speaker 47 It's good for you.

Speaker 16 I'm going to dose you with weed. I'm going to start blowing it in your ear like a dog.

Speaker 111 This is legal.

Speaker 11 Big cap and PFT 18. The other two teams, 16.

Speaker 24 Okay, and who goes first?

Speaker 11 You guys first.

Speaker 110 Okay. Right?

Speaker 60 Hank, are you on first last time?

Speaker 4 Yes. Me and Max.

Speaker 60 You guys, us, Hank.

Speaker 5 Oh, just a little cleanup from Mount Rushmore on Monday.

Speaker 40 That was actually worse of an idea than we thought it was going to be.

Speaker 37 And we thought it was going to be the worst.

Speaker 4 I didn't get a single text thanking me. I got several texts.

Speaker 47 Oh, Jerry O'Donnell.

Speaker 4 Yeah. He didn't text me.

Speaker 79 No,

Speaker 4 I got some angry.

Speaker 47 We picked. Oh, you guys picked it up.

Speaker 16 Yeah. Who's the most angry, Hank?

Speaker 4 My dad was upset.

Speaker 6 What was he upset about?

Speaker 4 He's been on the show.

Speaker 4 Whitney texted me. Edelman tweeted at me.

Speaker 96 Just not good. Yeah, it reminded me.

Speaker 4 They're like mad at me. That's never where you want to be.

Speaker 23 It reminded me of a bastard party I went on probably like 10 years ago where one of my buddies pulled out a whiteboard and was like,

Speaker 66 when we were all hammered at 3 a.m. and was like,

Speaker 22 to the groom, he's like, why don't you rank all of us?

Speaker 69 And that was basically the same energy.

Speaker 61 It's bad.

Speaker 17 It's an impossible. You should never rank your friends.

Speaker 21 We did it.

Speaker 48 It was stupid. We love all of our recurring guests.

Speaker 16 When you said, I've got an idea coming out of the break after Mount Rushmore, I said yes before you said what the idea.

Speaker 16 I thought that you were going to say, let's do a different Mount Rushmore because I felt so bad about it right away.

Speaker 11 Every recurring guest moving forward, they're just going to roast you guys.

Speaker 68 That's fine.

Speaker 110 We deserve it.

Speaker 35 We deserve it.

Speaker 37 But that was, it was, it was entertaining-ish.

Speaker 49 It was a mistake. It was a mistake.

Speaker 18 It was a huge mistake.

Speaker 35 It was almost as big a mistake as doing a podcast in a hole.

Speaker 49 It was also a big mistake.

Speaker 11 God, Steve and Lenny were picked.

Speaker 47 Who?

Speaker 11 Singray Steve and Lenny Dyke.

Speaker 79 Oh, yeah, I didn't even remember them. Yeah.

Speaker 52 Yeah.

Speaker 53 That seems like some animosity coming from Team Billy and Jake.

Speaker 51 Well, Billy Plunton.

Speaker 71 It's all right.

Speaker 16 Who's allowed to pick today, Jake?

Speaker 60 We actually had some good talks before this one.

Speaker 106 Okay, we'll see. That doesn't mean anything.

Speaker 16 Billy, do you think you had a good talk? Well, they both did.

Speaker 50 Yeah, no, we had a great talk.

Speaker 82 Both of them mics, too.

Speaker 4 That's kind of the first of the draw, right?

Speaker 37 Yes, yes. Okay, so it's the Mount Rushmore of goats.

Speaker 24 We have first pick?

Speaker 50 We do. All right.

Speaker 22 So we will start the Mount Rushmore. three.

Speaker 52 No.

Speaker 16 We're going to start with one. Yeah.

Speaker 33 You don't even. No, you do.
Yeah, we do.

Speaker 16 Yes, because Hank gave me his charger. Yeah.
C-word, sorry.

Speaker 13 And it's Michael Jordan.

Speaker 47 Easy. Okay.
Easy pick.

Speaker 87 MJ, the goat

Speaker 79 in everything.

Speaker 4 Most of the coaches ever won. Oh, no.

Speaker 27 Oh, you're talking about what, in the 1950s?

Speaker 21 He's the goat in basketball.

Speaker 46 He's the goat in shoes.

Speaker 53 He's a goat in coolness. He's the goat.

Speaker 16 Goat in earrings.

Speaker 47 It's a good pick. Yeah.

Speaker 14 It's a great pick. It's a great Michael Jordan.

Speaker 79 It's the goat. Yeah.

Speaker 92 Michael Jordan.

Speaker 11 Yeah, so we had a 1A1B, and you guys took one of our 1A1Bs.

Speaker 22 Okay, so it was a good pick.

Speaker 47 It was a great pick.

Speaker 16 You had a one and a two, then.

Speaker 14 I mean,

Speaker 74 we knew you guys were going to take one of the two.

Speaker 91 We also love taking Michael Jordan because we know that Hank will not take LeBron James, and he's not the GOAT, but we also know you won't do it.

Speaker 87 Which you could to try to split the vote, but you won't.

Speaker 97 Yeah.

Speaker 11 We're going to go with the goat in the sport that this podcast is made of, Tom Brady.

Speaker 67 Oh, oh good

Speaker 106 night you kick jake kick jake you had 1a 1b jordan yeah i mean brady do you have any mics left that you can trade oh man

Speaker 55 tom's definitely gonna text you tomorrow and be like what the fuck hank and i didn't have the chance to take him otherwise i obviously would have he would have been your 1-1 yeah okay so you have two picks max and hank what should we do here um

Speaker 77 let's just go let's just go two

Speaker 4 there they got

Speaker 4 numbers all right we're gonna go uh tiger woods oh oh oh

Speaker 35 he has the most majors?

Speaker 56 He changed the sports.

Speaker 62 He has all the majors?

Speaker 4 I just like Tiger.

Speaker 62 What did you just say about Jack McCrowder?

Speaker 22 It's a good pick.

Speaker 50 And Bill Russell.

Speaker 47 Wait, do you mean it's a good pick?

Speaker 16 Do you mean like the GOAT dad? Because his son tried to go to the bottom.

Speaker 4 He literally changed the sport pick golf forever. He brought a new generation of fans to it.
The entire game

Speaker 4 of Tiger Woods. And he has the most majors? That's not what it's all about.
Again,

Speaker 82 he was a jackpick.

Speaker 4 If that's your logic, then.

Speaker 37 Well, that was your logic when you said that MJ was not.

Speaker 4 I wasn't denigrating. I was just asking a question.

Speaker 4 You knew you were going to take Tiger Woods you still tried to do the Bill Russell thing no I didn't I just was asking a question I didn't even mention Bill Russell okay so we're gonna go tiger woods then we're gonna go Wayne Gretski the great one okay good pick hey your second pick was fantastic I like it are we I think

Speaker 56 we go

Speaker 47 with it oh that's a boycat right it's you don't see boycats well no it's unneutered boycat well I just assume all cats are girls you don't see nuts hanging off the cats yeah that's true that's That's a barn cat.

Speaker 35 But do you not assume all cats are girls?

Speaker 16 I guess it's because you don't see nuts hanging off cats.

Speaker 47 No, you really don't.

Speaker 13 That's a pair.

Speaker 1 He's got a pair of nuts.

Speaker 110 That's a beast.

Speaker 11 So this next one.

Speaker 16 Frank Gore.

Speaker 11 Billy actually came up with it on his own.

Speaker 110 He deserves the credit.

Speaker 51 It'll go on our team, but he likes it.

Speaker 110 Trump?

Speaker 95 No.

Speaker 33 We're going with Joey Chestnut. Okay, okay,

Speaker 6 I think the best.

Speaker 110 There's no closer sport

Speaker 33 than anybody else. Okay, we go three and seven.

Speaker 47 There's no second to him.

Speaker 76 Does he have any L's?

Speaker 13 I don't think he has any L's.

Speaker 11 Not on the grand stage.

Speaker 110 Maybe.

Speaker 33 I don't know. I don't think he has any L's.

Speaker 19 He does have an L.

Speaker 13 He lost to Yashiko.

Speaker 47 Kobyashikov. Kobiashiki also lost.

Speaker 54 No one remembers that.

Speaker 33 No one remembers that. Who do you list?

Speaker 37 Stoney.

Speaker 4 Matt Stoney. Matt Stoney.
Yeah, Stoney.

Speaker 33 But he's the goat. As of now, he's won more championships than I think anybody on this list.

Speaker 16 Okay. He's the goat eater.

Speaker 24 Did you just get an alert saying almost there, stand?

Speaker 90 Yeah.

Speaker 23 We're like synced up.

Speaker 2 I just got it the same way.

Speaker 16 Well, we've been doing the exact same thing. Yeah, that's true.

Speaker 54 I have been standing, though, because my outs keep coming out like that cat.

Speaker 77 You guys just did the numbers during Billy and Jake's picks.

Speaker 4 That was one of the most disrespectful things I've ever done.

Speaker 47 Correct.

Speaker 109 Damn.

Speaker 62 I'm excited about it.

Speaker 77 I saw it. You guys were doing the

Speaker 51 three and seven.

Speaker 47 You're like three and seven. Well, no, three and seven.

Speaker 21 No, because

Speaker 1 that's a great pick. There's nothing to say about that pick.

Speaker 3 We had that pick.

Speaker 87 We would have taken that pick.

Speaker 47 That's a fact.

Speaker 17 If they hadn't taken Joey Chestnut, we would have taken Joey Chestnut.

Speaker 47 Oh, really? Yes. So that's why

Speaker 19 there was nothing bad to say. Like, we weren't going to.

Speaker 56 That was absolutely the pick we were going to take right there.

Speaker 92 So it was a good pick.

Speaker 47 Thank you. Yeah.

Speaker 16 And we've got two great picks right now coming back at you.

Speaker 1 All right, I'll go and then PFT.

Speaker 22 Yep.

Speaker 40 We'll go with Muhammad Ali.

Speaker 33 He couldn't really compete with Philly.

Speaker 116 Don't tell him.

Speaker 47 He is the goat. He's the goat.

Speaker 21 His book is the goat. He would absolutely go.

Speaker 16 You only know about the term goat because Muhammad Ali was the greatest of all time.

Speaker 14 The goat.

Speaker 16 Facts. He's the goat.
Good facts.

Speaker 33 Tyson Fury would beat him.

Speaker 47 Facts. I don't know.
That is facts.

Speaker 52 I don't know about that. Okay, not facts.

Speaker 41 And then that is facts.

Speaker 16 Our third pick, Nancy Reagan. Throat goat.
Throat goat baby. Throat goat.
The absolute goat.

Speaker 18 Make sure it says throat goat in parentheses.

Speaker 72 No, no, that's not allowed.

Speaker 62 That's not allowed.

Speaker 47 That's not allowed.

Speaker 31 They'll know.

Speaker 16 No, no, that's not allowed.

Speaker 4 Yeah, no, there's no nicknames on it.

Speaker 47 Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 91 Yeah, no, there's nicknames. See?

Speaker 47 Nancy Reagan, parentheses, throat goat.

Speaker 33 We have never done nicknames.

Speaker 33 That's why we were talking about big country and that didn't get play.

Speaker 58 Okay, fine. That's true.
True.

Speaker 4 Nancy Reagan.

Speaker 16 Great point, though. They'll know.
People know.

Speaker 47 Yeah, I really.

Speaker 40 No nicknames?

Speaker 33 Yeah.

Speaker 109 Okay.

Speaker 20 uh

Speaker 11 middle of third round we're going with the fastest man alive Usain Bolt okay

Speaker 16 we discussed him okay

Speaker 33 historically

Speaker 47 it's

Speaker 33 historically he competes with anybody in any era he is the fastest man

Speaker 96 okay

Speaker 54 where are they going

Speaker 52 back to back where they going with yeah oh they're pumped you guys just talked about it during their pick No, we didn't.

Speaker 62 Yeah, you did.

Speaker 62 I was

Speaker 56 disappointing.

Speaker 84 You did the same thing.

Speaker 4 You kind of alluded to it earlier, even though you didn't give me the chance, but we did have him on the list. He is the GOAT.
We're going with LeBron James. Okay.

Speaker 47 Oh, God.

Speaker 4 So, Hank, you think LeBron James is a GOAT? He's on the Mount Rushman.

Speaker 84 You need to say those words.

Speaker 77 I think LeBron James is the GOAT. I'm part of this team.

Speaker 47 Okay, go ahead, Hank.

Speaker 77 That was my pick. Hank, you think the same thing? That was my pick.
We're a team.

Speaker 33 Yeah, they're selling their vote.

Speaker 4 And then with the final pick, we'll go with the greatest Olympian of all time, Michael Phelps.

Speaker 11 Great Plymouth. We're by taking him next.
Good pass.

Speaker 5 Does he have the most Olympic gold?

Speaker 11 I don't know, but in Beijing in 08, he was a good one.

Speaker 72 He spoke once.

Speaker 4 Greatest Olympian of all time. He's got a great sounding voice, just a stud, fast.

Speaker 50 Yeah, but his medals are like

Speaker 63 dominant.

Speaker 62 Here's one for 100 meters of swimming.

Speaker 16 Here's one for 110 meters of swimming. Here's one for 150 meters of swimming.
They're basically all the same award.

Speaker 4 The 2000, was it 2008, the relay? Comeback, part of that team. One of the greatest highlights of all time.
I watch it every time it pops up.

Speaker 16 He lost his leg. One of the great highlights of all time.
Wait, Michael Phelps lost his leg?

Speaker 33 He lost his leg of the relay.

Speaker 52 Oh,

Speaker 79 Billy, he was still part of the team.

Speaker 47 Wait, wait, come on.

Speaker 72 That's a swimming term.

Speaker 33 That's a swimming term.

Speaker 16 Legs of a relay.

Speaker 4 I love our list.

Speaker 73 He lost. You feel good about it.

Speaker 47 About LeBron.

Speaker 4 I love our list.

Speaker 39 You won't even say it.

Speaker 4 It's a team effort.

Speaker 4 I value my teammates' picks.

Speaker 47 You won't even say.

Speaker 56 Okay.

Speaker 96 It's a pick. All right.

Speaker 11 Our final pick, Serena Williams.

Speaker 4 Okay. That was on our list.

Speaker 109 Yeah.

Speaker 99 Also, going back, it's not even close about the Olympic gold, Michael Phelps.

Speaker 16 Yeah, you had your time.

Speaker 13 I just asked.

Speaker 47 We probably know.

Speaker 97 I was just saying.

Speaker 79 Your time is.

Speaker 77 We didn't have an answer.

Speaker 47 Do we do 25? We did wet both.

Speaker 16 Yeah, 25 or nine.

Speaker 11 Yeah, so Serena, not only what she did on the court, but that movie, King Richard, just puts it in perspective, like how groundbreaking her and her sister were for the sport of tennis.

Speaker 33 She did more than Tiger Woods did for golf.

Speaker 16 Good point, Billy.

Speaker 4 Let's do 25. Tennis players are getting paid the way golf players are probably paid now.

Speaker 54 That's Renaissance.

Speaker 16 Yeah, no, good point. Good point.

Speaker 25 Are we the only ones with a

Speaker 50 woman? Yeah.

Speaker 4 No, you're not.

Speaker 16 Yeah, Nancy Reagan.

Speaker 47 Yeah, we have

Speaker 16 the actual first lady.

Speaker 40 Are you the only one with a black person? No, you're not at that either.

Speaker 47 No, no.

Speaker 2 So what were you going to finish the sentence?

Speaker 47 You're the only one?

Speaker 109 Combo?

Speaker 33 Never mind.

Speaker 83 Next question. Okay.

Speaker 16 That's That's what you call black women.

Speaker 67 A combo?

Speaker 82 Combo? Well, he just asked you two questions in a row.

Speaker 72 That sounds like the worst slur of all time.

Speaker 47 Both.

Speaker 40 Combos.

Speaker 47 Both. Okay.

Speaker 18 Should we do it? They're going to be pissed.

Speaker 71 Yeah, yeah. Let's do it.

Speaker 38 All right.

Speaker 21 We'll go with the GOAT podcast listeners, the AWLs.

Speaker 78 Yikes.

Speaker 16 Why? Back to back to back to back to back to back to back.

Speaker 21 We've got eight takeies in a a row.

Speaker 4 It's a singular Mount Rushmore.

Speaker 16 The GOAT podcast listener. AWLs.

Speaker 110 So what is the graphic?

Speaker 47 AWL.

Speaker 16 Did you do any award-winning listeners?

Speaker 49 Are you protesting this?

Speaker 4 If it's AWL, that's protesting.

Speaker 94 I literally protested.

Speaker 22 I both of them.

Speaker 63 I literally.

Speaker 72 Are you protesting?

Speaker 47 Are you presenting it? It depends what the presentation is. Are you protesting?

Speaker 38 How do you guys want it to present? Anything else?

Speaker 94 It's not. AWL.
L's. L.
L's. No.
Goat.

Speaker 14 No, AWL.

Speaker 16 L's.

Speaker 33 We almost chose pardon my take. Yeah.

Speaker 40 So, are you protesting, Hank?

Speaker 39 Would you like to protest?

Speaker 74 It's just AWL Poster Creative.

Speaker 47 Yes, listen.

Speaker 39 Would you like to protest?

Speaker 1 No, I want to hear him say protest.

Speaker 4 I just think it's a singular question.

Speaker 39 I want to hear you say protest.

Speaker 47 Say protest.

Speaker 4 I didn't know we could do groups.

Speaker 16 If I may, if I may, Hank's going to be a little bitch about this.

Speaker 62 He loves Bron James and hates our listeners.

Speaker 108 I just want to say that.

Speaker 79 No, I'm not protesting.

Speaker 50 I want the listeners to know

Speaker 40 that we picked them.

Speaker 104 We actually took them. That's your pick.

Speaker 72 Because we love them.

Speaker 47 No, we will change. That's what we're talking about.
We're not protesting. We're not.

Speaker 94 We're told to change. Whoa, whoa, whoa.
I did not protest.

Speaker 1 No, because we said the AWLs, and you're not letting us put an apostrophe S, so we'll do a different.

Speaker 4 I didn't protest.

Speaker 19 No, that's your pick. That's your pick.

Speaker 79 Can it be on the graphic?

Speaker 16 Award-winning listeners, AWLLs.

Speaker 22 And throat goat.

Speaker 4 No, no throat goat.

Speaker 49 No throat coat.

Speaker 62 AWLs.

Speaker 11 Acronym award-winning listeners?

Speaker 4 No, just AWLs.

Speaker 60 AWL apostrophe S.

Speaker 109 Sure. Sure.

Speaker 82 Wait, apostro?

Speaker 16 No, it's not apostrophe.

Speaker 50 AWL and then a much smaller font for the S.

Speaker 16 Yeah.

Speaker 60 Who called it AWLS?

Speaker 11 Was it Tommy LaSorda?

Speaker 4 Definitely not. Yeah.
Tim Wins called the Awls.

Speaker 110 I think Tommy Lasorda.

Speaker 47 It's called the AOLs.

Speaker 47 All right, so AWL, Post-Rey S, small.

Speaker 93 Yeah. Okay.

Speaker 66 All right, what do we miss?

Speaker 16 Secretariat.

Speaker 29 Secretariat would have been our pick if you prefer

Speaker 77 low-key. Alex Schrebeck is great.

Speaker 54 Messi.

Speaker 62 Messi. I was surprised you got his name.
Jokovich.

Speaker 4 I was going to take Lil Wayne. Jake.

Speaker 72 Both majors.

Speaker 11 Yes, but there's a debate to be had.

Speaker 110 That's all I'm saying. I don't think so.

Speaker 50 Larry the Goldfish.

Speaker 4 Nah.

Speaker 47 Not Perry Bonds?

Speaker 41 Okay. Mario Kart, the video game.

Speaker 22 Yep.

Speaker 16 MVP Baseball 2004, the video game.

Speaker 33 Michael Vick and Madden. Wilwin.

Speaker 16 Fleetwood Mac Rumors, the album.

Speaker 2 I wanted to do music. Maybe we'd do music goats.

Speaker 17 Because it's hard. You can't.

Speaker 100 We could maybe do music goats for another movie.

Speaker 16 We had Jesus on there. Yeah.

Speaker 4 I thought about doing God.

Speaker 84 Did you not want to do Belichick?

Speaker 4 He was on the list that just went.

Speaker 17 Belichick and Saban.

Speaker 11 We had Blue Mountain State football team.

Speaker 47 Okay. We had Bob Barker.

Speaker 56 Blue Goats.

Speaker 99 It's a terrible pick.

Speaker 16 That would have have been that would have

Speaker 16 good job jake denying that yeah

Speaker 33 well we no no there's like some like like you know desert bighorn sheep technically or goats there's like other goats we had if it got out of the goat you're making this worse we ran out of goats uh the simpsons

Speaker 16 goat tv show you feel good with

Speaker 62 clouds better yeah babe ruth you're wrong at least that babe ruth wasn't wouldn't babe ruth will they would have shown you gotta throw your pride aside like i'm competing for a championship Babe Ruth would have been.

Speaker 85 Then, if you're competing for a championship, we know that you'll lose more than you win.

Speaker 4 Yeah, I know.

Speaker 105 I picked LeBron. Yeah.

Speaker 47 Really? I like LeBron.

Speaker 4 I like Nancy Davidson.

Speaker 33 They got weird stuff. Like, they have two

Speaker 33 non-athletic goats.

Speaker 60 Nancy Reagan.

Speaker 104 Nancy Reagan is definitely an athlete.

Speaker 16 You know, the lung capacity? She's got better lung capacity than Michael Phelps. Absolutely.

Speaker 47 But that's like a fair. You know how long she can hold her breath?

Speaker 22 No, it's a confirmed.

Speaker 47 That's not confirmed.

Speaker 104 I know that you want to defend the Reagans at all costs.

Speaker 72 No, I'm not.

Speaker 82 This is a fact.

Speaker 47 No.

Speaker 16 We should have taken both Trump and Obama.

Speaker 4 Trump was on the list, too, just for fun, but we've already done that this year. He goes to the next one.

Speaker 110 JFK is in second place just for that.

Speaker 47 Genghis Khan.

Speaker 91 We talked about Genghis Khan is a goat.

Speaker 47 He's the genetic goat. He's the genetic goat.

Speaker 82 He's spread his seed.

Speaker 4 He's the Miss Prime.

Speaker 2 Yeah, that's a good one.

Speaker 33 I wonder who, Wilt Chamberlain or Genghis Khan.

Speaker 105 Mr. Rogers.

Speaker 47 We were also going to.

Speaker 47 Goku.

Speaker 37 We should do the goat things because we were we were like dipping into like should we do things to Coors Light like yeah ice cream like we could do that as a Mount Rushmore goat things

Speaker 99 I thought we were going to.

Speaker 21 You thought you were going to forget that?

Speaker 47 I need to shave.

Speaker 77 I think that Shane should be added to it.

Speaker 77 I think that Evan should be added to it.

Speaker 6 Okay, well, we have Billy Jake Hank Max PFT.

Speaker 16 That sounds right to me.

Speaker 36 Memes? You know what?

Speaker 37 I'm going to actually even be such a good guy because I actually put your name twice, Hank.

Speaker 54 I'm going to delete the second one. I'll see you.

Speaker 23 I love you so much.

Speaker 16 Memes, I don't think you need. You shaved this morning, probably.

Speaker 63 What about memes?

Speaker 16 I think memes shaved already.

Speaker 4 Shane, yeah, add Shane and memes there.

Speaker 72 Yeah.

Speaker 6 Here we go.

Speaker 108 Let me see.

Speaker 16 I'm witnessing.

Speaker 88 Please be me. Let's say.

Speaker 4 I didn't see that. You broke the name in there.

Speaker 19 Are we allowed to shave?

Speaker 62 Yeah, but that's not.

Speaker 36 Okay, I'll go again.

Speaker 51 Wait a minute.

Speaker 50 That's fine. This is insane.

Speaker 71 I'm witnessing.

Speaker 77 I don't trust you either.

Speaker 16 Pick a random name.

Speaker 79 It's Jake.

Speaker 39 Okay, there you go, Jake. Jake's got to shave.

Speaker 62 Damn, Jake. This is honestly the worst.

Speaker 77 Because if I get it on Friday, I would rather get it earlier in the week than later in the week.

Speaker 11 What do you guys want me to shave?

Speaker 16 Your chest. No, you have to shoot.

Speaker 56 Shave your face.

Speaker 47 With a razor? Yeah.

Speaker 76 No, you just have to shave your face. Yeah, shave your face.

Speaker 88 Wait, have you shaved it?

Speaker 73 Oh, Jesus.

Speaker 37 Are you serious? I swear, I get red.

Speaker 16 Is this a joke?

Speaker 11 I've been using an electric razor my whole life.

Speaker 68 Out of the hole. Sit down, sit down.

Speaker 47 No, get out of the hole. Sit down.

Speaker 87 Jake, talk me through what you're thinking right now.

Speaker 4 I just can't believe what...

Speaker 4 I can believe it, actually.

Speaker 86 Jake, get out of the hole.

Speaker 73 Sit down.

Speaker 4 I feel like if we asked Jake his allergies, he would pull out like a scroll that would just hit the ground and roll out for like 20 miles.

Speaker 111 Jake, why don't you leave the hole?

Speaker 20 I don't know.

Speaker 16 Just step out of the hole.

Speaker 14 Just take a step out of the hole.

Speaker 71 Just step out of the hole for a second.

Speaker 47 Just take a step out of the hole.

Speaker 16 Get out of this hole.

Speaker 16 Man with shaving cream allergy. Can't be in a hole.

Speaker 16 Jake, come back in the hole.

Speaker 87 Come on back in, Jake. We love you.

Speaker 16 You just need to take a time out of the hole.

Speaker 16 Oh, my God. Jake, what else are you allergic to?

Speaker 68 Give us the whole list.

Speaker 11 Dogs, cats, shaving cream, maybe chocolate.

Speaker 11 I've never liked chocolate, but

Speaker 11 sometimes I get like red and peek when I eat like chocolate-heavy things. Like ice cream sandwiches and Oreos are fine.
It's not like full chocolate.

Speaker 56 What else?

Speaker 11 Ray Allen tweet. Ray Allen tweet.

Speaker 110 Grass are you allergic to lying.

Speaker 22 You're allergic to lying.

Speaker 11 Bermuda grass, technically. That's golf course.

Speaker 11 I feel like I grew out of that one because I've been on a lot of golf courses.

Speaker 110 Okay.

Speaker 11 That's what I can think of at the top of my head.

Speaker 77 Yeah.

Speaker 44 Not worms.

Speaker 47 Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 110 Yeah, not worms. How's that worm?

Speaker 63 I don't know that yet.

Speaker 50 The problem with worms is sometimes

Speaker 16 when you eat a female worm, they have eggs, and then they can lay eggs in your stomach, and then you can get just worms in your poop for forever.

Speaker 33 That's bullshit.

Speaker 76 So I'm excited to try it out.

Speaker 16 That was a lie, Jake. I can't have it.

Speaker 33 Earthworms dying stomach acid.

Speaker 46 Hank's face when Jake said that.

Speaker 5 I was crying, laughing, watching it.

Speaker 11 I found out once I got hot in the face of shaving cream.

Speaker 4 I just got so itchy and red everywhere it was crazy I love you I have not used shaving cream since then I love you all right you just drive shave yeah just take an electric razor and go like all right guys on trucks my 94 year old Chevy grandpa has his entire life in his truck mostly in coffee cans he also has every tool imaginable just in case he'll need it the coffee cans are for nails screws or other parts and of course nothing's labeled I remember one time opening up every single one to get a part and he looked at them and found it on the first try.

Speaker 79 Yeah, I love it.

Speaker 16 No, that's such a classic grandpa. My grandpa had the same thing in his truck.
It was like 1960 Dotson. I don't think they even make it anymore.

Speaker 16 That's just an old grandfather move, and he knew where everything was, too. It's just

Speaker 16 it's like a filing cabinet for an old guy. Yeah,

Speaker 3 this grandfather rocks.

Speaker 21 Because truck guys rock anyway, but to have just like 50 coffee cans that just has your whole entire life in it, that guy rocks.

Speaker 4 My truck has got me through life so far. The song, If It Wasn't For Trucks by Riley Green, is very true.
The best moments in life happen in a Chevy Silverado and the adventures are limitless.

Speaker 4 That just sounds like an ad.

Speaker 64 Yeah, that was great.

Speaker 35 Wait, that was the whole thing? Yeah.

Speaker 13 Oh, I love that.

Speaker 4 Hey, my buddy has a really nice truck and doesn't even back in, even in his own driveway. He is not a truck guy, right?

Speaker 16 No, because I think sometimes the guys that go out of their way to back in their truck so everybody will look at their truck, that's kind of anti-truck in itself. No, I disagree.
Okay, give it to us.

Speaker 33 You got to back in the truck. What? You always have to back in the truck because then when you can load the truck, it's easy to load.
That's true

Speaker 33 from your garage or anywhere. Yeah.

Speaker 39 Yeah, I never even thought about that.

Speaker 22 You got to back in your truck.

Speaker 16 I mean, when it's time to load something, then you can just back it in at that point.

Speaker 33 You don't know when you don't know when you're gonna have to load something because part of being a truck guy is going in somewhere and be like, oh, we need to carry that. Yeah.

Speaker 16 Sometimes the loads sneak up on you.

Speaker 55 What about Billy grocery store?

Speaker 37 Do you just front in because you're going to load load it in the back?

Speaker 33 No, if you're pulling up to the grocery.

Speaker 47 Yeah.

Speaker 24 You got to. If you park in a grocery store parking lot.

Speaker 82 Okay.

Speaker 22 That's it. You front in.

Speaker 60 That's a good point because the front is the back.

Speaker 13 Or Home Depot.

Speaker 33 Home Depot is different. You pull up, pull up to the loading center.

Speaker 43 True. Afterwards.

Speaker 92 Yeah. All right.

Speaker 37 We checked it out. That's true.

Speaker 4 Last one. Real question.

Speaker 16 Billy just said something really deep there. Did you guys catch that? He was like, that's a good point because at a grocery store, the front is the back.

Speaker 95 Yeah. yeah yeah yeah facts good point

Speaker 4 can owning a truck help with your golf game asking for a friend who's really struggling even though all he does is golf thanks

Speaker 39 jake is that you hank talk us through the glove

Speaker 4 uh again i tried to preface it with my fire fest So I've gone, I've gone into pro shops and asked for a righty glove, and they've given me a glove for my right hand, which is what left-handers use.

Speaker 4 So that was a mistake. I then took that glove, put it in my bag, forgot about it.
Showed up to Frankie's course.

Speaker 4 I don't even think I slept really. We were recording until like 5:30 in the morning.

Speaker 4 Then I had to drive straight from the golf course.

Speaker 16 I think you said in the video that you got four and a half hours of sleep. For, yeah, that was also probably a lie.

Speaker 4 For work.

Speaker 16 Quick question. Did you get there early?

Speaker 1 He was up till 5:30?

Speaker 14 You guys were.

Speaker 4 Yeah. Hank.
No, I drove memes home, I think.

Speaker 62 Oh, okay.

Speaker 16 Did you get to the golf course early enough to use the driving range?

Speaker 4 I did. I made sure I was up early enough to get the driving range.
Driving range was closed. They were mowing the driving range.
Didn't get to warm up. Take on no sleep.

Speaker 4 Pretty much was still doing the podcast at that point.

Speaker 4 And I just grabbed a glove out of my bag.

Speaker 16 Yeah, you grabbed a glove and a nice plastic cup of Stella Blue, right?

Speaker 4 And accidentally grabbed

Speaker 4 the right-handed glove, which is for lefties.

Speaker 4 And when Frankie called me out, and I was too embarrassed to admit it, so I tried to say I do this all the time. but I don't.
And it was a tough look.

Speaker 4 And then I proceeded to go out and shoot an eight and a seven on the the first two holes.

Speaker 82 There was an eight and an eight.

Speaker 4 Eight and an eight, sorry.

Speaker 4 And I've just, you know, the roast has continued. Like I said, I prefaced it with my Fire Fest.
It's been bad. Programs in shambles.
The summer's coming to an end.

Speaker 4 I'm not going to be able to golf much anymore. And I want to prove it to myself.
I want to prove it to the AWLs that I'm not as bad as

Speaker 4 it looked.

Speaker 31 You are as bad as it looks.

Speaker 38 No, you're not.

Speaker 47 You're not.

Speaker 47 You're not as bad.

Speaker 109 No.

Speaker 62 No.

Speaker 16 You're not as bad, Hank. It's just that every single time that you do it on camera, you're very, very bad.

Speaker 4 Yeah, I know. I know.

Speaker 111 So do you think a truck would help?

Speaker 4 Probably. Yeah, there's only one way to find out.

Speaker 62 Yeah.

Speaker 47 You could, I mean, put your glove up in a glove can.

Speaker 54 Yeah.

Speaker 4 Yeah, it's been bad. It's been bad, but it's fine.

Speaker 47 You'll figure it out. Yeah.

Speaker 16 Okay. It was funny when Hank stepped up to the tee with his right hand and a glove, and Frankie was like, do you,

Speaker 71 like, what do you do? Do you always do that?

Speaker 14 And Hank's like, yeah, yeah, I do.

Speaker 16 For a second, I was like, maybe Hank just figured out a way to break off. Maybe that's the right hand to put it on.

Speaker 4 Yeah. Oh, yeah, there was no getting out of that one.

Speaker 37 Hank, I just want you to get to a point where you could shoot a good number.

Speaker 96 18.

Speaker 47 69. Fuck.

Speaker 54 Oh, God.

Speaker 11 Are these counting? Am I keeping track of these?

Speaker 68 Sure. Thank you.
Three. Eight.

Speaker 96 Twenty.

Speaker 16 That's not going to be 69.

Speaker 92 I'll go 52.

Speaker 13 I think that's the memes. You ever gotten this?

Speaker 77 Hank just took his number.

Speaker 99 Oh, no.

Speaker 55 Shane?

Speaker 23 10. 10.

Speaker 54 Okay.

Speaker 67 Watching?

Speaker 93 Yeah.

Speaker 4 Memes is one.

Speaker 107 69.

Speaker 47 9.

Speaker 31 Oh, almost so close.
