Speaker 1 On today's part of my take,

Speaker 1 we have our good friend Ryan Rossillo on talking NBA draft. We also have the Mount Rushmore of Hausses.

Speaker 1 Very contentious one, if I remember correctly. Great Mount Rushmore.
Great Mount Rushmore.

Speaker 1 We are doing hot seat, cool throne. We have FAQs.

Speaker 5 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 5 No place behind out or washing.

Speaker 5 And then I can blame all on the sound. Oh, no, we're gonna rock it down to Electric Avenue.

Speaker 5 And then we'll take it higher.

Speaker 5 Oh, we're gonna rock it down to Electric Avenue.

Speaker 1 Pardon my take.

Speaker 1 Welcome to Part of My Take. Today is Wednesday, June 21st.

Speaker 1 Wait, did we just make it to summer? Yeah, we did.

Speaker 7 First Christmas day of summer.

Speaker 1 If you're hearing maybe a little echo or something, probably not an echo, but sounds like we're in a cavernous place. We actually are.

Speaker 1 We're in the brand new Barstool Bar in Nashville, which opens this weekend. It's incredible.
Everyone should go check it out. One, two, three, second have.
South Second Ave.

Speaker 1 So check it out. That's what we're recording today.
We've reached summer.

Speaker 1 Is this the longest day?

Speaker 7 Yeah, it is. Holy Holy shit.
And it was the longest day for part of my take, too.

Speaker 1 Yeah, we did a bunch of interviews at Tight End U that will be coming out in the next couple of weeks.

Speaker 1 Wait, that means that tomorrow's, it starts to get shorter. Oh, no.
Don't say that. Don't say that.
Oh, no. And this is also us filibustering because there's no sports going on.

Speaker 7 Big cat, Sony Michelle resigned with the Rams today. How quickly we forget.
It's Sony Michelle Day.

Speaker 1 Also, Victor Wembanyama held a baseball in his hand. Yeah, did you see that picture?

Speaker 7 I did see the picture.

Speaker 7 It was insane. It's freak.
He's a freak. He's a freak.
Officially a freak. He rode the subway to the game, which questionable decision-making on his part.

Speaker 1 John Rocker's pissed.

Speaker 7 Yeah. Well, it's a very French move, given the smell of the subway.
He probably fit right in.

Speaker 7 And he went out through the first pitch. Better than 50 cent.
That's what I'll say. Okay.

Speaker 1 Better than 50 cents. Low bar.

Speaker 7 Not as good as George W. Bush.
Okay.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 1 Yeah. We are in.

Speaker 1 We're in that section of the sports calendar. Yep.

Speaker 1 We're ass deep in it. We're there.

Speaker 7 Ass deep in it. Yeah.
I do love Nashville, though. Nashville is a fun city to be in.
Awesome city. Awesome city.

Speaker 7 Bachelorette parties everywhere. You can't help but notice at about like 9 a.m., they're lined up taking pictures in front of those giant wings next to our hotel.

Speaker 7 Giant wings, it's just a bachelorette trap.

Speaker 1 Yes.

Speaker 1 Let's do a fun new game, okay? Okay. It's called, I just read the top stories on ESPN and you guys sound off.

Speaker 7 All right, sound off in the comments.

Speaker 1 Okay, so anyone who's like, why don't you talk about this? Guess what? We're going to talk about it. Sources, Kuzma declines option, hits free agency.
That's Kyle Kuzma.

Speaker 8 Good.

Speaker 7 Rebuild. Rebuild.
Full effect.

Speaker 1 Yeah. The Zards.

Speaker 2 Zards are down bad right now.

Speaker 1 Chris Paul found out that he was getting traded to the Zards on his flight to New York from his son. Didn't seem so happy about it.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 Also, Isaiah Thomas is the shadow GM. That's what he's been alluding to,

Speaker 1 which it's insane that Isaiah Thomas is going to be controlling another team.

Speaker 8 Yeah.

Speaker 7 I mean, honestly,

Speaker 7 would you play for the Wizards if it was $5 million a year? Yes. I would not.

Speaker 8 To be in the NBA? I would not.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 1 Yes, you would.

Speaker 7 In five years, five years' time, I would love to play for the Wizards, but right now I'm declining.

Speaker 1 I would like to

Speaker 1 play for the Wizards for $5 million a year.

Speaker 7 I would rather take the buyout.

Speaker 1 Call me stupid. Yeah, I already said that I would play for the Suns for $1 because they need...
cheap rosters. $1 million.
$1 million. Oh, Billy, okay.

Speaker 9 $1 million. I think I could get a couple boards.

Speaker 1 Yeah. I think so, too.
Probably your own shots. Yeah.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 Okay. NFL to reinforce its gambling policy to players.

Speaker 1 No fantasy leagues that are over $250 cash prize. But you can still play.

Speaker 7 You can play. You can play for free.
You can draft yourself onto your team.

Speaker 1 That's what we do. Love of the game.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 7 Money doesn't have to enter the equation.

Speaker 2 Yeah.

Speaker 1 Love fantasy. Ron.

Speaker 7 So, I know, but get, I hate to correct you. I think that the NFL redoubled its gambling messaging.
Okay. So redoubling.
I don't know the difference between reiterating and redoubling it at Drupal.

Speaker 1 I'll match. Also, our good friend Mike Florio had a little fan fiction that you'd like, Hank.

Speaker 1 He wrote an article about the East West Shrine game moving out of Vegas because of the gambling, but it actually was moving out of Vegas because of the Super Bowl's there this year. Okay.
So

Speaker 1 it doesn't matter.

Speaker 1 Don't let facts get in the way of a good story, Mike. Okay.
How about this one? ROM, John ROM, that is, is not wasting time on what-ifs of Alliance. Okay.

Speaker 1 I'm not going to click, so we don't know what this is. It's about the love.

Speaker 7 That's about Saudi, Saudi, the Saudi money. Yeah.
Not wasting time thinking about it. Honestly, if I were him, I probably wouldn't either.
I wouldn't want to think about how much money I turned down.

Speaker 1 Yes, yes.

Speaker 1 Kings first to hire two women to lead G League team. Two.

Speaker 1 If you have two, you don't have one. The Kings? Yeah, the Kings.

Speaker 4 The Queens.

Speaker 1 The Queens have hired two women to lead G-League team. Yeah.

Speaker 2 Good. Good.
Good. Good.

Speaker 1 I'm glad.

Speaker 7 I'm in favor of it. Progress.

Speaker 8 I'm in favor of it.

Speaker 1 As Yanks flounder, Cashman cites belief in roster. That's a shame.
He's a dodo brain.

Speaker 7 So Cashman is saying, I made good decisions.

Speaker 1 Okay, so if Brian Cashman's name wasn't Brian Cashman, he would have been fired already, right?

Speaker 7 Brian Cashman's a powerful name. Doesn't he always climb a building in Connecticut, too?

Speaker 1 Yeah, he went through some weird midlife crisis where he got divorced and started climbing buildings like Spider-Man.

Speaker 7 Yeah, that happens as one does. But

Speaker 1 I'm convinced that

Speaker 1 if you're a Steinbrenner, you hire Brian Cashman. He's like, well, yeah, he's the cashman.
That's what we do here.

Speaker 7 Yeah, but he reiterated his belief that he redouble.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I mean, this is also, he should have come out and said, hey, remember that time the Astros cheated? That counts as a World Series. So we're really not that bad.

Speaker 7 Yeah, so the Yankees have only won, what, one,

Speaker 7 this can't be right, one World Series since they started really testing for steroids? Yeah. That's wild to think about.

Speaker 1 That is wild to think about. Gino expects Bucher's ready for start of season.
That's Paige,

Speaker 7 Paige Buckets. Yeah, of course, yeah, I know.

Speaker 1 UConn Women.

Speaker 1 This is the sixth headline. So it's hot right now in the sports world.
Conte leaves Chelsea, joins Benzma at Alley. God.

Speaker 1 We're crushing these.

Speaker 1 They got to have. Thoughts, boys?

Speaker 1 They should have Yostrumski's home run last night. Great home run.
Walk-off home run into the Cove. You think so? Electric.

Speaker 7 Benzma's overrated. Yeah,

Speaker 1 I concur.

Speaker 1 And then finally, which is perfect, Sony Michelle returns to the Ramsay. Of course, there we go.

Speaker 1 That should be way higher on this list.

Speaker 1 He's the

Speaker 1 eighth on ESPN. We're running it back.
Yeah, let me see. I'm just going to refresh real quick, see if anything popped up.
No.

Speaker 7 Okay. Oh, you forgot the big headline.
Kellen Moore said that Justin Herbert's size has opened his eyes to some things.

Speaker 7 So Kellen Moore realizes that Justin Herbert is big.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 1 Really big.

Speaker 1 This is why we're doing rush workers.

Speaker 7 Sometimes I look at Max and I go through the same thing.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Whoa.

Speaker 7 He's big. Big boy.
You should probably be able to tackle anybody on this podcast.

Speaker 1 You know what? Why don't we do that? Yeah. Before we get to Hot Seat Cool Throne, why don't we talk about Max?

Speaker 1 Hank, in real time, can you just tweet the video just in case people didn't see it? Yeah. The slow-mo one or the regular one?

Speaker 1 Let's go with the regular one. Okay.
And then we will... We'll make sure that we also tweet it out tomorrow with the show.
And the cartoon. And the cartoon.
Three times we're going to tweet it.

Speaker 1 So, Max,

Speaker 7 promoting the show, Max.

Speaker 1 Now that we're all together, where did that chair go? Billy fucking put his laptop on. Oh, come on, Billy.
We really need Billy with his laptop.

Speaker 7 It's Billy's notes.

Speaker 1 There's no one

Speaker 1 have anything written down in his hand. What's your notes? Read your notes.
No, they're all for later. It's an animal crossing.
So it's one animal fighter.

Speaker 7 It's a drawing of a submarine. No.

Speaker 1 No.

Speaker 1 With a sculling cross.

Speaker 1 With a question mark next to it. Bad time.

Speaker 1 Max,

Speaker 1 Hank stiff-armed you. Into the earth

Speaker 7 before. Like, destroyed you.

Speaker 10 Yeah, no, I honestly.

Speaker 1 Did you see any submarines while you're down there?

Speaker 10 I was really thinking about it. Like,

Speaker 10 in that moment, I could have just gone and laid him out, but we were having like a friendly day.

Speaker 10 No one was wearing any pads. You know, I'm used to hitting with rugby ones.

Speaker 1 I know,

Speaker 10 I'm used to hitting with rugby, great sport. I'm not used to it.
I'm used to hitting with pads on.

Speaker 10 There was a part of me that was going through that, and I was like, if I really go and try and lay him out, then it's going to be an issue.

Speaker 10 Like, he could get really hurt, and like, then I would look like a massive asshole. Yeah, so as it was coming on, I was like, you know what?

Speaker 10 I'll stop my feet, you know, just wrap up, bring him down to the ground. You know, very, very simple.
He got it.

Speaker 1 I whiffed. I whiffed.
I whiffed.

Speaker 7 No, it wasn't so much a whiff, it's an angle.

Speaker 10 And the way that angle looks, it makes it look like a stiff arm. So, like, shout out to Hank.

Speaker 10 He got great tape out on out

Speaker 2 great tape out on the bottom.

Speaker 7 There's a different angle coming out, then, right?

Speaker 1 Do you need a 20-second timeout? No, no, no.

Speaker 1 I think I just did a great job right there. Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, I don't know. I'm going to get a moment of drills tomorrow.
I mean, Hank just,

Speaker 7 he put his arm into your chest and then pushed you down. I wouldn't say that.
He did not push me down.

Speaker 1 He pushed me down. He certainly did not push me down.
You pushed me down. Yeah, you got not pushed down.
You updated.

Speaker 7 The faster you admit this, the easier it's going to be for you.

Speaker 10 It was one rep. And then also,

Speaker 10 something else that isn't showing out there right now.

Speaker 1 All the drops you had?

Speaker 10 There was an opposite

Speaker 10 rep where I was running and Hank was supposed to tackle me, and he just bailed out and threw a watermelon.

Speaker 1 You made a business decision?

Speaker 10 His business decision was just throwing a watermelon at me.

Speaker 7 Which is the right move because Hank has been around the content game long enough to know that you don't want to put the bad tape out there.

Speaker 1 Max, I have a question for you.

Speaker 1 Can I ask a question? Yes. Okay.

Speaker 1 Do you think there's any limit to the amount of L's you could take? No. Because it really does feel like a bottomless pit of L's.
Like you.

Speaker 1 Every time I'm like, oh, Max is going to bounce back. You find a new way to get lower.

Speaker 1 Both literally and figuratively, because again, he did put you through the Earth's crust.

Speaker 10 I've invented a new... Like, that shouldn't have been it.
That day, I did not wake up that day thinking that there was going to be a viral video of me

Speaker 1 looking horrible again.

Speaker 10 And I'm starting to get used to it, which is honestly sad. Like, it didn't really affect me that much because it's just,

Speaker 10 I'm just wearing them every day.

Speaker 7 What I love about that rep is that after you hit the ground, you can see you're in your body language. You know immediately it's going to be a bad visual.
Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.

Speaker 7 You just pound the ground. It's like you blame the ground for it.

Speaker 10 I don't know if I blame the ground as much as I just wanted to bury myself into that.

Speaker 1 into that ground.

Speaker 10 I live in the mud right now. Yeah.

Speaker 1 No, it's bad for you. It's bad.

Speaker 10 But the win that I do get, the one win that I will get one day will be that much sweeter. Oh, man.

Speaker 1 This is sad.

Speaker 1 I've been where you're at right now, and it's straight loser talk. Thinking, like, someday, it's going to be my day.

Speaker 7 From your perspective, can you walk us through the rep?

Speaker 1 Yeah,

Speaker 1 like you said, I've been in the content game a long time. Didn't want to do it.
Max is a big, big, big, big guy. Played football.

Speaker 1 No matter what word you were going to end that with.

Speaker 1 I didn't know if you were going to go bitch there.

Speaker 1 He's a D1 athlete. He's a big fellow.
He played football. I did not play football, even though we were playing rugby.
It was my first time. But I knew I had to do it.
That was your first time.

Speaker 1 I knew I had to do it once.

Speaker 1 I'm committed to the content. And in my head, I was like, this is not going to go well.
Let's just get through this rep. Max is going to tackle me.
Try not to get hurt.

Speaker 1 And then, you know, it was just instinct. And I saw his eyes.
I realized I crossed him up. And then I just talked about those.
That was a great pass. Great pass.
Good speed, good momentum.

Speaker 1 And once I got my hand kind of on his chest, I just I just threw him down. I didn't realize how he was just kind of like a marshmallow.
Like, I didn't realize how

Speaker 1 soft he really was and how easy it was. I couldn't, I'll tell you this.
When I was on the ended up that drill on my feet on the other side of the pitch, I was stunned. Couldn't have been happier.

Speaker 7 And you knew in that moment, you're like, this is great tape.

Speaker 1 And then later, me and Max and memes were eating dinner, and PFT sent the video to the group text, but I didn't see it on my phone. And Max, in real time, he's like, oh, my God.
And I was like, what?

Speaker 1 And he tried to not tell me, even though I was on the text message. I was like, what?

Speaker 1 What are you commenting on? He's like, no, no, no.

Speaker 1 And then I just pulled up my phone and saw it.

Speaker 4 It's bad angle.

Speaker 1 It's bad angle. I have decided that my, you know, TikTok, I don't really post there much.
I think I'm just going to post that video with a different sound and effects every day. I think you've already

Speaker 1 done for like a month.

Speaker 2 That's good. I liked it to post one today.

Speaker 1 Still time. Yeah.
We've been busy. You were looking at your watch there?

Speaker 1 It's the longest day of the year.

Speaker 1 You can find time. Yeah, you can go.
Okay, good.

Speaker 1 Try not to trip. Yeah.

Speaker 7 Watch out for Hank's fist there.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 1 All right.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 7 I guess that means Hank could probably. The thing about Hank is he would beat the fuck out of Max.

Speaker 1 I mean, we have only proof, the only proof we have of their physical confrontation, Hank won easily.

Speaker 1 That's a fact.

Speaker 7 One thing people don't realize when they're listening or watching part of my take is most of the episodes, Max is just pacing back and forth behind the cameras,

Speaker 7 thinking about what he could say. Yeah,

Speaker 1 yeah, Oklahoma. Making sure all the camera angles look good.

Speaker 10 I do walk back and forth.

Speaker 1 You do want to make sure that all the camera angles look good and no bad angles.

Speaker 10 Well, yeah, I want to make sure everyone's still in focus.

Speaker 10 That's me doing my job.

Speaker 1 Right, I'm saying bad angles. I'm not doing my job anymore.
I don't know. I'm saying bad angles is how we get the video that we got.
Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.
Sure. That's yep.
Okay.

Speaker 1 Good job, Mank. Good job, Good producing.

Speaker 1 It is funny because it also dawned on me that, like, as soon as Hank can get away from Jake, he becomes an alpha. Yeah.
It's just the minute he gets back with Jake, it's over for him.

Speaker 7 Oh, if Jake was trying to tackle Hank, he'd have a bloody nose, a broken arm. Look like he just got run over by a lawnmower.

Speaker 1 He just needs to stay so far away from Jake.

Speaker 12 Yeah, truly.

Speaker 1 All right. Let's do Hot Seat Cool Trump because we've got a lot of actually other things to talk about, including the sub.

Speaker 7 Hey, it's PFT here,

Speaker 7 flavor for every gathering. Boar's head, committed to craft since 1905.

Speaker 1 All right, hot seat cool throw on Hank. My hot seat is Wes Anderson.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 The filmmaker.

Speaker 1 Great films. Got a very unique style.

Speaker 1 Yeah, no, I'm aware of Wes Anderson. Thank you.
Okay, sorry.

Speaker 7 I think he's boring. Does anybody else think he's boring?

Speaker 2 That's one good movie.

Speaker 1 But Bottle Rocket and Royal Ten and Bombs were great.

Speaker 1 Royal Ten and Bombs. Who the Best Hotel is good? Royal Ten and Bombs was a great film.

Speaker 7 It was. Was the Zizu one, the Steve Zizoo one? Yeah, those are too soon to talk about ocean exploration, but that was okay.

Speaker 1 Yeah. They're all kind of, they're all, it's all kind of one movie.
But the Royal Ten and Bombs was, I think, the first one.

Speaker 1 People are going to get like, that was the one that was really, really good. Bottle rocket was also great.
I think that was his first one. That was his first one.

Speaker 7 I feel like his movies are just designed so that people in the audience look at each other and go, these people are so weird.

Speaker 1 I will say, yeah, when I did, I did one year at film school, and I was like, oh, Wes Anderson, great filmmaker. Watch a bunch of his movies.
Like, he's so good.

Speaker 1 And then over the years, it's like, this is all kind of, you know,

Speaker 1 Rushmore. the Liam Neese.
Oh, yeah. Rushmore was great.

Speaker 1 There's a Liam Neese one that was really good, too. But he has a very distinct style.
On TikTok, there's been a trend of people basically making Wes Anderson-style TikToks. And

Speaker 1 he came out and was like, I refuse to watch them. He's like, he hates them.

Speaker 1 Well, yeah, I would understand why.

Speaker 1 Basically, his entire life's work is being minimized to TikTok. No, it's like, they're cool.
They're cool videos.

Speaker 1 It's like it's an homage to him. And it's, very filmmaker move to come out and be like

Speaker 1 he refuses. He's disgusted at the thought of people even trying to do what he does.
But I'm saying I get that from his perspective because he probably takes himself very seriously.

Speaker 1 He is a filmmaker, an artist, and then everyone can do it with a phone.

Speaker 7 He definitely takes himself very seriously.

Speaker 7 That part is legit. Yeah.
I would love to see him direct an episode of Part of My Take.

Speaker 1 Ooh.

Speaker 1 You should do an intro to the Stiff Arm where it's like, you know, Max's face, then your face, then a rugby ball, then the stiff arm, Wes Anderson style. It's a good idea.

Speaker 7 I have Jason Schwartzmann in it for some reason. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Bill Murray, yeah. Timothy Sham a lot.

Speaker 1 Is the new movie good? The new Wes Anderson? Yeah. I don't know.
Okay. I've heard.
I'll watch it.

Speaker 7 I've heard it's not.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I mean, he's kind of like he had those few that were awesome, and then it got a little redundant.

Speaker 7 Once you've seen one, you've seen them all.

Speaker 9 Correct. Cocaine Bear is definitely better.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 1 And then my cool throne is LSU. Ah, that was mine.

Speaker 1 They're in the College World Series. There is a bar that does Jell-O shots and keeps track of how many Roccos, how many fans buy the Jell-O shots.

Speaker 1 And LSU, what, quadrupled, quintupled, seven-tupled

Speaker 1 the next closest? LSU is, they broke the all-time record beating Ole Miss a couple years ago. Our friend Todd Graves actually went and bought 6,000 Jell-O shots to go past the record.

Speaker 1 They still are going, though. They're at 23,302 jello shots.
That's so many jello shots. And second place is what?

Speaker 1 Second place is

Speaker 1 Wake Forest, which is actually a little surprising, although they're really good. So I think that's why

Speaker 1 they're sticking around. They're at 6,631.

Speaker 7 What's Oral at?

Speaker 1 Oral Roberts, not last,

Speaker 1 3,006.

Speaker 1 Can you guess who's last?

Speaker 1 Stanford. Stanford, not last.
Stanford had 747. Virginia, 621.
Also, because they lost in the first two games of the game.

Speaker 1 In Virginia. But yeah.
Speaking of oral, this kind of puts LSU back on the hot seat. They lost to Wake Forest, and then in the locker role,

Speaker 1 Wake Forest, they just face fucked their own team.

Speaker 1 You got to pull this up.

Speaker 1 It was one of those spur-of-the-moment things where they were just celebrating with each other, and the guy sits on a bench and just like he just face fucks his teammates.

Speaker 1 So they were doing, they they were doing uh oh yeah oh no yeah he's face fucking guys no no no that is exactly what happened you're right hank this is um so imagine being an lsu player fan and being like we just lost to this this is like this is the after part of a harlem shake

Speaker 1 yeah there the the it drops and then suck that deacon dick bitch yeah no that one was that one felt like they had done that before Yeah, that's just a face fuck.

Speaker 1 Also, Wake Forest has these uniforms with insanely tiny font. That's very funny.
It looks like

Speaker 7 those Great Britain World Baseball Classic jerseys.

Speaker 1 They're so small. It's so small.
Look at how small the Demon Deacon is on that.

Speaker 1 It's really, really small. It's very funny.
But yeah, College Baseball World Series is awesome.

Speaker 1 Okay, PFT.

Speaker 7 My hot seat is James Cameron. Yes.
We've alluded to it a couple times.

Speaker 1 It's a big day for filmmakers.

Speaker 8 The Ocean Gate

Speaker 7 Company sent their submarine down to explore the Titanic, the wreck of the Titanic, with, I think, five souls on board. You always say souls if there's a crash.

Speaker 7 I don't know what the difference is between like five people and five souls. Five souls on board.
One hour, 30 minutes into the voyage, they lost contact with the surface.

Speaker 7 So the sub was apparently controlled via text messaging. from the surface because you can't get GPS underneath the water.

Speaker 7 And on board, they had like two controls that they could use, which they were using like a Mad Cats PlayStation 3 controller

Speaker 7 to, I guess, move the sub around. So we don't know where they are.
They have enough oxygen, apparently, until Thursday.

Speaker 1 Well, I know where they are.

Speaker 1 They're dead. They're probably dead.
They are dead.

Speaker 1 This is one of those situations that it's captivated the internet because they keep being like, they have 50 hours of oxygen. They have 40 hours.

Speaker 1 They died.

Speaker 1 It probably,

Speaker 1 in a weird way, I know this is a tragic situation, but it's probably better that they died almost instantly. I would imagine they did.

Speaker 1 Something bad happened and the sub broke and they died.

Speaker 7 You don't want to be on board a submarine that's the size of like a geo tracker with four strangers and then have to kind of live out the last 40 hours of your life.

Speaker 13 It is one of those situations too

Speaker 1 where like five people died and Twitter's just going off. One of them was a billionaire.

Speaker 1 One of them was that I did have one tweet that maybe was uncouth in the moment, but it's just buy a sports team. Yeah.
Don't have to go see the Titanic, buy a sports team.

Speaker 1 But still, it is tragic, and it's also like Twitter's just having a field date with it.

Speaker 1 Well, CBS did a report, like 60 Minutes did a field report months ago where they basically showed how, like, it wasn't approved. Yeah.

Speaker 1 It wasn't like really, you know, thought through or like scientifically backed. It was just kind of thrown together by some guys that charged 250K for a trip.

Speaker 7 How do you think they came up with that number? 250,000? It probably isn't worth that much, but the market that you're going after, you might as well go after rich people.

Speaker 7 And if you make something cost a lot of money, then rich people want to buy it. Yeah.

Speaker 1 And smart, smart business it's also insane because i was watching a news clip and uh they had like a scientist on he's like more people have been in space than have been that deep yeah which kind of puts into perspective how fucking scary they're at the bottom of the bottom what's in the ocean we don't know you were

Speaker 9 me and me and will were talking about this at lunch and he actually i think he would have survived with his with his plan of it would have gone different if you were on that thing no no no i was just saying like there gets the point if you have like 90 hours of oxygen for four people left and then you're like well you know if you don't have have to share the oxygen anymore.

Speaker 1 Now you have way more.

Speaker 7 Yeah. Oh, but you just would have started killing them one by one?

Speaker 9 I like imagine what's going on in that if they're still alive.

Speaker 1 That's the thing is I don't, I think that's why people are so like intently watching it because it's a literal ticking time bomb of like when they run out of oxygen.

Speaker 1 But I really do think like they probably died instantly.

Speaker 1 The minute they lost communication, the sub probably broke and they died, which again is a better way to die than the alternative of being trapped in that and counting down these seconds.

Speaker 7 Once somebody has to take a crap for the first time, I'm just holding my breath until I die. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Yeah. It's crazy.

Speaker 1 I mean, the videos of the inside of that supper. It's fucking tight.

Speaker 9 I'm so glad I'm claustrophobic because I would never get in a situation like that.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Chilly would never

Speaker 1 sink to the Manhattan.

Speaker 8 Yeah, he would be.

Speaker 7 No, Billy would never get into a suit and then submerge himself underwater.

Speaker 1 No, no, but that's dangerous.

Speaker 9 That's different. That's different.
That's way different.

Speaker 9 Totally different. There was like a swimming, you could swim out of there if you really needed to.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 Yeah. It's also just like a good rule of thumb, like anything Titanic related, just don't do it because then it just becomes like, well, we know what the Titanic happened.

Speaker 7 Well, I'm listening, I am once again asking them to build Titanic 2. Correct.
The ship that's in the same dimensions as Titanic 1, sail the exact same route.

Speaker 7 as the first Titanic went, have everybody on board dress like it's what, 1915, whenever it went down, and just replay, Just run it back. Yeah.
Don't carry enough lifeboats on board.

Speaker 7 Sell it to uber-rich people. And I guarantee you that thing would sell out.
I would be on Titanic, too.

Speaker 1 Yeah. It also, I didn't realize how, like, where the Titanic sank.

Speaker 7 Super close to the United States.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 7 I had no idea. I would have swam to shore if I were them.

Speaker 1 It's like kind of crazy, because in your head, you're like, oh, they were somewhere way up, but that's just where icebergs were back in the day.

Speaker 7 Just don't fuck with the ocean. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Yeah, that's actually a really good,

Speaker 1 just stay away from the ocean. Yeah, enjoy it.
Stay away from more than like 20 feet into the ocean.

Speaker 7 The beach is fine. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Beach is good. Everything else, bad.

Speaker 7 My cool throne is Zion Williamson. Yes.
Zion has been in the news a lot recently for some of his relationships and

Speaker 7 sexual prowess, you might say, or lack thereof.

Speaker 7 His ex-girlfriend, Mariah Mills, got her Twitter account nuked today because she was threatening that she was going to drop a sex tape of Zion because I guess Zion wasn't playing ball with her or whatever.

Speaker 7 So she got her account suspended because I guess that would technically be revenge porn if she put out a video, federal crime, she put out a video of Zion Williamson banging her in the bathroom next to all his two liters of soda.

Speaker 7 And she showed a picture of her iPhone when she was letting him know, like, I got the goods on you. She has the most cracked iPhone screen of all time.

Speaker 7 As we alluded to on girls you don't want to fuck with someone with an obliterated iPhone screen. You see a girl with that screen and she is the worst type of a blast to hang out with.

Speaker 7 One night's great, probably, I would imagine. She's like Vegas, the female equivalent of Vegas.
One night would probably be a lot of fun, and then you want to get as far away as possible. Yeah,

Speaker 1 she didn't really play her hand well.

Speaker 7 She did not.

Speaker 1 It went from, oh, she's got something to say, to now she's lost all her means to make money, it seems like, because social media probably was pretty important to her. Yeah.

Speaker 1 So, yeah.

Speaker 1 Shout out Zion. Zion's back.

Speaker 1 I would like to say just right now, if the Bulls want to trade for Zion, I'm all in. Yeah.
Because he does feel like he might be on the trade block, and I'm all in.

Speaker 7 Yeah. He just needs a change of environment.
I actually think that's...

Speaker 1 A stress asset.

Speaker 7 That New Orleans is probably the worst city for him to live in. I would get fat New Orleans too.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 In a second, I did for the final four. Yeah.

Speaker 1 I was like a fucking, I was like a sausage on a grill. I love going.
I'm ready to beat poached. I love it.

Speaker 7 I'm ready to go back. It's the best.

Speaker 1 It's the best. Okay.
My hot seat is Packers fans trying to get me to somehow admit that I was wrong about the Jordan Love video. A lot of Packers fans, listen, I expect more out of Packers fans.

Speaker 1 You've owned me my entire life, and you're acting kind of sad right now, being like context, context, context.

Speaker 1 We did get a little bit of context that Jordan Love was just a French Bears fan was asking him to make the video. And

Speaker 1 so now Packers fans are like, look,

Speaker 1 he was asked to make the video. That still is bad.
Aaron Rodgers never would have done that. That is my point.
You got to say no.

Speaker 7 You got to say no if you're Jordan Love.

Speaker 1 You got to to say no. Aaron Rodgers, that was my, like, as much as I hate Aaron Rodgers, he tortured me.
He's fucking owned me, all that stuff. He respected the rivalry.
He never gave an inch.

Speaker 1 Jordan Love, you gave an inch, I'm going to take that inch.

Speaker 7 Yeah, if you identify yourself as a Bears fan and you ask the Packers quarterback to make a video for you for whatever reason.

Speaker 1 He was wearing a Bears jersey.

Speaker 7 Yeah, you say no to that. You say no.

Speaker 1 You say, I'll say, you know, happy birthday to anyone. I'll say whatever.
Happy Father's Day to your own father, whatever you want. I'm not saying it's to all Bears fans.

Speaker 1 So there's your context. And people were like, people were very upset at me.

Speaker 7 That's not really much time to do that.

Speaker 1 That's right. That's my point.

Speaker 1 It was like a big gotcha moment. It's like, I still think it was stupid.

Speaker 1 Like, it makes it maybe a tiny bit better that he wasn't like, made the video himself trying to, like, own Bears fans, but still, you say no to that video. Yep.

Speaker 4 10 times out of 10.

Speaker 7 Hank, what are your thoughts? You look like you've got some thoughts on Jordan Love.

Speaker 1 No? Good guy. You agree with me that you just don't do that video? Absolutely not.
Right. That's respecting the rivalry.
Don't do that video. Week one is going to be.

Speaker 1 I'm excited for that. What's the most important?

Speaker 1 What's in the video? For those who didn't watch it.

Speaker 1 It's Jordan Loves saying, I want to wish a happy Father's Day to

Speaker 1 all Bears fans. Oh.

Speaker 1 So. Yeah.
Usual, dad. Yeah.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 Okay. My cool throne, because both my cool thrones are taken.
I'm going to do it on the fly.

Speaker 7 Tony Michelle.

Speaker 2 He's back in LA.

Speaker 1 Barshall National. How about Wyndham Clark?

Speaker 1 Because you have now gotten the internet to be like hey he's a bad guy yeah so you've you've gone through the whole thing uh tremendous loser behavior by anyone who does this pop don't care what side politics you're on if you see someone have the greatest moment of their life and you immediately like let's go through his likes and try to figure out what he liked on twitter that's loser energy

Speaker 7 i was shocked to find out that a pja golfer is a trump supporter named windham yeah no i didn't see that one coming

Speaker 1 so yeah Wyndham Clark, you are on the cool throne because you've gone through it all now.

Speaker 1 As soon as you get your big moment, have the internet shit on you a little bit, or a corner of the internet, it's not the whole internet,

Speaker 1 you now have come through the other end and you're good.

Speaker 7 Yeah, the best thing about sports is to not care about politics for however long you're watching sports. Correct.
You just turn that side of your brain completely off. Right.

Speaker 1 And you just watch the Saudi-funded golf tournament. Yep.
Yep.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 1 Billy.

Speaker 9 My hot seat is Andrew Tate. He's officially done so.

Speaker 1 Oh, no. What are you missed? No, no.
They got your leader.

Speaker 9 He's big time racketeering charges, arrested,

Speaker 9 smuggling people. Yeah, now they got it.
It's going to stick.

Speaker 1 Really? Yeah. This has got to be devastating for you.
No, it's not.

Speaker 7 Do you disavow?

Speaker 1 It's collusion. It's tough.
No, he won't. It's tough.

Speaker 9 No, I don't.

Speaker 1 I think Billy still wants to be a top G?

Speaker 14 If he's convicted, then we'll see what happens.

Speaker 1 Okay. So let all the facts come out.
Yeah. Okay.
My favorite antique Romanian government is due process of Romanian law.

Speaker 9 No, I just, I don't know how corrupt Romania is.

Speaker 1 Uh-huh.

Speaker 7 So not disavow.

Speaker 9 I disavow if he's guilty if he did what he's accused of.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 9 Okay.

Speaker 9 And then my

Speaker 7 beta behavior. Other hot seats.
You never apologize. What?

Speaker 1 Yeah, you just fired. You disavowed, and that's beta.

Speaker 13 Sure.

Speaker 13 My other hot seat is Jack Jones.

Speaker 9 I don't know if we talked about this already, but he was caught at the the airport with two guns. Yes.

Speaker 1 Yeah, but that wasn't the bad part.

Speaker 13 In the duffel bag?

Speaker 1 No, the bad part was that he tweeted John Morant a month ago being like, dude, what are you doing? Oh, clean it up. Oh.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 7 Said receipts on him. Yeah.
He had two guns in the airport.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Yeah.
Probably grabbed the wrong bag.

Speaker 9 Some people have gun bags.

Speaker 1 People are asking, is Belichick lost the locker room? No.

Speaker 1 I love that debate when it's like, well, he's a grown-ass man who's doing whatever he, like,

Speaker 1 old school Belchek.

Speaker 7 He used to say, oh, Belcheck's bad.

Speaker 1 This is nothing for Belichick. Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 7 I mean, Aaron Hernandez probably flew with no fewer than five guns at any time.

Speaker 1 I just do love, though, like, when

Speaker 1 an NFL guy gets in trouble this time of year, it's like, well, how'd the coach not stop him? Yeah. This grown-ass man who's living his own life.

Speaker 7 Those should have been two playbooks in his backpack.

Speaker 1 God damn it. Pelichek, how can you not get him to stop doing that?

Speaker 7 I mean, speaking of TSA violations, our good friend Henry Lockwood went through the airport with no fewer than, what, I'd say, like 12 tools in your bag.

Speaker 1 I went to clean out my apartment when you're in New York because I'm not going to be back.

Speaker 1 And I found a box of tools that I meant to pack, put them in my backpack, meant to transfer it to my bag that I was checking.

Speaker 1 And then me and PFT were going through the security line, and it kind of set in. I was like, I think I have a giant box of tools with like nails and a ratchet and a wrench.

Speaker 1 And PFT was like, oh, I think you might be able to get through with it. And so basically forced me to ask the TSA agent, like, like, hey, is this okay? And she's like, this is like a 12-foot ratchet.

Speaker 1 Like, no.

Speaker 7 And I had to throw it away. I forced Hank to do that, by the way.
That was my fault.

Speaker 1 You did. I was going to throw it away and pretend like it never happened.
And you're like, no, ask him.

Speaker 7 Yeah. Somebody pointed out online, like, what if the plane broke down and Hank needed to fix it? And then they got rid of the one guy that could have landed.
True.

Speaker 1 Could have been that guy.

Speaker 1 All right. Good hot seat, cool thrones.
Oh, you have one more?

Speaker 9 Cole Rowland on Wake Forest, Cool Throne. Do you?

Speaker 1 He's the face fucker or the face fucky.

Speaker 9 I don't know, but he's just tweaking out on the mound, and I love that energy. Okay.
He looks like he's really wound up.

Speaker 1 Okay. He's pretty pumped up, pissed off.
Nice. Good for him.
Nice.

Speaker 1 All right, so we're going to do Mount Rushmore of Haases as it currently stands.

Speaker 1 PFT and I have two points. Max and Hank have two points.

Speaker 10 Editor's note: Max and Hank have three points. I repeat, three points.

Speaker 1 Billy and Jake have zero points. We should have three, but we took a one-point penalty.

Speaker 7 Self-imposed? Yep.

Speaker 1 Well, not self-imposed. It was Jake.

Speaker 1 snitch ass. Yep.

Speaker 7 Yeah. That was dirty what Jake did.

Speaker 1 It was. It was really dirty.
I would never do it. I took it for like two seconds.
Yeah.

Speaker 7 Did not affect the score. We still would have won.

Speaker 1 I agree. I didn't snitch.

Speaker 1 I'd snitch. So then can we take back our self-imposed penalty? No.
Oh, okay. I mean, absolutely not.
Okay. All right.
Let's zoom out Rushmore of Haas's PFT.

Speaker 1 You got a quick word for one of our sponsors. What is sponsored by?

Speaker 15 The Pro Football Football Show is presented by the Chevy Silverado. Built for the the hustle, ready for the game, Chevy Silverado is America's most dependable full-size truck.

Speaker 15 Whether you're grinding through the 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 15 Head to Chevy.com to learn more and build your own Chevy Silverado.

Speaker 1 Okay, Mount Rushmore time.

Speaker 1 We've been talking about doing this one for a while now. It is Mount Rushmore of Haases.

Speaker 1 Big old Haas. Not saying horses.

Speaker 7 Haas. Haas.
You know a hoss when you see one.

Speaker 1 Big boys.

Speaker 7 Big boys. Max, you're hoss adjacent.

Speaker 16 You're hossish.

Speaker 10 I think that's the nicest thing you've ever said.

Speaker 1 Yeah, yeah, hossish. You look good in that shirt today, Max.

Speaker 10 There's so many holes in this shirt.

Speaker 1 That's a hoss thing. You know what? Having holes in a shirt is a big guy, it's actually not that bad because it's like, oh, he got hungry.
He started gnawing on his shirt. Yeah, you, Frank the Tank.

Speaker 1 It's just all the holes.

Speaker 1 You needed a quick snack on the subway? Why don't you see if there's maybe some hemp in that shirt?

Speaker 10 They're all around my belly.

Speaker 1 So that's just the belly popped so bad. Oh, no.

Speaker 1 Yeah, it looks like. It looks like moths.

Speaker 7 Yeah, it looks like maybe you got stung by something. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Maybe take a shirt off.

Speaker 1 Yeah, it's fine. Okay.
All right. So Mount Rushmore Mushroom of Haases.

Speaker 1 Hank and Max are up first. And then we're going second.
And then Billy and Jake third.

Speaker 1 Let's go, guys. Let's have a good Mount Rushmore.
Rushmore.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Let's get it.

Speaker 1 Hank.

Speaker 1 Hank, just so behind the scenes, Hank has claimed that Max is dropped the ball and not being a great teammate. This was before you came in this room.

Speaker 1 He said this.

Speaker 10 This is news to me.

Speaker 1 Sounds like something you guys can figure out 24 hours.

Speaker 10 I mean, I sent him a full list of hosses yesterday.

Speaker 2 Okay.

Speaker 9 This is a devious move.

Speaker 1 I'm just saying. I mean, it's true.
Did you not hear him say that?

Speaker 9 I know, but I don't know if you can cross the barrier like that.

Speaker 1 I think Hank said it.

Speaker 7 His direct quote was: I have no idea what Max is doing. Yeah.

Speaker 1 I said he's out to lunch. Yeah, he's out to lunch.
I thought he was out to lunch. Literally.
Okay.

Speaker 1 Yeah,

Speaker 1 that's a look. I like it.
All right, here we go. Hank and Max.
Pick one.

Speaker 1 We're going to go with

Speaker 1 Shaq.

Speaker 1 Okay. Oh, not a Haas.
Why not? Not a Haas. Could be debatable.
But too athletic to be a Haws. Good pick.

Speaker 7 Too athletic to be a Haas.

Speaker 13 No,

Speaker 9 we talked about this.

Speaker 1 I don't want to be contentious, but I lean towards Billy's reply there.

Speaker 7 But he's gotten unathletic.

Speaker 1 Yeah, he has.

Speaker 1 He's gone Hausser. He literally didn't work out until the season started.
That's true. That played way into his hoss fucking move.
Yeah, dude.

Speaker 7 It's not a bad pick. I just don't know if it's 1-1.

Speaker 9 He's way too agile.

Speaker 1 You know what? Why don't we do 1-1? Yeah, we'll do 1-1. We'll take our 1-1.
We'll take our 1-1.

Speaker 7 Huge miss on Hank's part. Max didn't contribute, so I'm going to blame that on Hank.

Speaker 7 1-1, John Daly.

Speaker 1 Haass. Good hoss.
We got that on our list. Big Haws.
Haas. Yes, no, that's a better pick.
Rippin' and ripping sigs, ripping driver. Yes.
Yes.

Speaker 7 Yes. Spinning rain delays in the Hooters tank, getting drunk with John Gruden.
That's a Haas.

Speaker 1 Dude, I take your husband.

Speaker 3 Hausses love Hooters.

Speaker 1 They do.

Speaker 9 Dude, I'll take your Haas and raise your Haas.

Speaker 1 My list is about to be crazy.

Speaker 9 We take your Haas, we raise your Haus

Speaker 13 with Jared Lorenzen R.I.P.

Speaker 1 Okay, Haas. Yes, good good pick.
We had it on our list.

Speaker 1 R.I.P. personal friend of mine in Hanks.

Speaker 17 Shuzu.

Speaker 1 Right there.

Speaker 1 So it's kind of fucked up that you took a guy that we personally had a relationship with and died, but that's fine.

Speaker 9 No, he would have wanted that.

Speaker 1 I don't know.

Speaker 1 He literally didn't know you existed. You had the chance to take him.
Yeah.

Speaker 4 He's kind of fucked up you didn't take him.

Speaker 1 No, that's fine. That's fine.
You had the chance. We thought it would be the memorial.

Speaker 1 Wait, wait, wait. Really quickly, I think that.
Yeah, yeah. Okay, okay.
All right. Oh, they're pumped.
Our next guy's got their swag back.

Speaker 10 Super Bowl champion, Andy Reid.

Speaker 1 Okay. Okay.

Speaker 11 Awesome cheeseburger after every game.

Speaker 1 That's a very good haws. Good haus.
That's a very good hoss.

Speaker 16 Awesome.

Speaker 1 I think we should go with

Speaker 1 number

Speaker 1 eight, maybe, PFT.

Speaker 7 Number eight's good because we can get two later.

Speaker 8 Yeah, we can get it.

Speaker 1 We can get two later, and we can get the second one that I sent later.

Speaker 7 Eight and nine are both good hausses.

Speaker 7 But yeah, I'll let you make the call.

Speaker 1 Damn, you let me have that. And that is a lot of pressure on me.

Speaker 1 Oh.

Speaker 7 I'd say go eight.

Speaker 1 Okay, John Madden. John Madden is a hoss.
Serious hoss.

Speaker 1 I mean, the guy loves food. He literally invented Thanksgiving, loves football, loves food.
Hoss. He's also stuck in.

Speaker 7 He invented video games, too. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Too big. He's too much of a hoss to fly.

Speaker 1 That's a fact. Getting driven around everywhere on a bus is the most hostile thing.

Speaker 2 It's the host thing you can do.

Speaker 7 You're basically a longhorned cattle at that point.

Speaker 1 Yes. Okay.
Hank is going to go with.

Speaker 1 Go ahead, your pick. It's

Speaker 1 go ahead. Sounds like you're going to finish my song.
You're going to be like, Yao Ming.

Speaker 1 Yao Ming is a hoss. Okay.

Speaker 1 Good pick. Good pick.
I did pick him. Oh, okay.
We're going to go with another guy, unfit to fly, too big for the world. Andre the Giant.

Speaker 1 Okay. Haas.
Okay. Yeah.
Absolute Haws. Now, is he a Hauss or is is he a giant?

Speaker 1 He's a Haas.

Speaker 1 That's his name. That's his wrestling name.
Billy and I are on the same page. This is a wrestling name.

Speaker 14 This is really weird, but it has to do with the women's wife.

Speaker 1 Also, the giant in today's day and age is kind of offensive. It's like the M-word.

Speaker 1 Let's relax. Which word? What word? The M-word.
Oh, are you saying that?

Speaker 1 Are you saying you said in a sentence? Yeah. M-like name.
The Ben. M-like name.
The giant is tall. The M-word is short.

Speaker 16 You need to specify which letter you're saying right now.

Speaker 1 M-like name.

Speaker 10 M is in max. M is in max.

Speaker 1 Oh, okay. Good.

Speaker 14 You're cleaning it.

Speaker 9 It all has to do with hip mobility, in my opinion.

Speaker 1 Okay. If your hips are too fluid, you're not a Haas.
Yeah.

Speaker 4 I agree. Yeah.
Like, Haases are more laid back.

Speaker 1 They're lumber.

Speaker 10 You guys think that you're just inventing the word Haas.

Speaker 10 No.

Speaker 1 No, no, no, no, no, no, no.

Speaker 7 We just know how to use it.

Speaker 1 We're dealing with it. No, that's not true.
That's not true.

Speaker 14 Can you say we're appropriating the word Haas?

Speaker 10 No, the Haas doesn't have a distinct

Speaker 10 definition.

Speaker 10 It is within the eyes of the beholder.

Speaker 1 And with that, I will go with our next pick, Genghis Khan.

Speaker 10 No, dude, he was tiny.

Speaker 1 Yeah, Billy Cohen. Dude, he

Speaker 1 was tiny, bro.

Speaker 1 He had big Haas energy. No, he didn't, dude.
He was tiny.

Speaker 16 Billy, a Haas isn't about the size.

Speaker 10 Look up how big Genghis Khan is.

Speaker 1 It doesn't matter. No, the Haas is very much about the size.
No. Yeah,

Speaker 1 a million percent.

Speaker 10 He maximizes the business. Now you're just going back and forth.
Now you're saying it's not about the size.

Speaker 1 It is about the size. There's a size.

Speaker 1 It's a big dude. It's not a giant.
King. It could be.
Genghis Khan.

Speaker 10 Why can't it be a giant?

Speaker 9 The only thing big about Genghis Khan was his rape statistics.

Speaker 1 Oh, yeah. Yeah, Hank is a rapist.
Good job, Hank. Way to go, Hank.
Bill Cosby next. Yeah.
Yeah. Good job, Hank.
Okay.

Speaker 1 Genghis Khan is a Haas.

Speaker 1 Genghis Khan is way too proactive to be a Haas. You guys are having a great.
I think we go 11 now, PFT.

Speaker 1 What do you mean? We've got a lot of great picks. We've got some great picks.
Genghis Khan is

Speaker 1 like five. Everyone knows

Speaker 1 11. Yeah.
Bartolo Colon. Bartolo Cologne.
Haas. Our list.

Speaker 1 When he hit that Homer,

Speaker 1 he was so fast. He could pitch and hit.

Speaker 7 That was maybe the best sports highlight of all time.

Speaker 1 I don't know. I feel like if we're going with his body jiggling, just a Haas energy all the time.

Speaker 1 You're talking about hip mobility in the future. He's in his family, right?

Speaker 7 Yeah. He had a second family.

Speaker 1 He's Haas.

Speaker 7 He's got a little Genghis Khan in him. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Great pick.

Speaker 2 Consensually. Yeah, consensually.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 1 I don't see any charges against Genghis. What do you think? Listen, I'm not going to

Speaker 1 be proven guilty. You guys lost this draft.
It's okay.

Speaker 1 The good news is we have another one.

Speaker 1 You guys, this is like, I had this inspiration last night.

Speaker 7 Genghis Khan was maybe the worst pick him out rush wars.

Speaker 18 He was 5'5.

Speaker 1 And the only reason he looks big is because he was wearing so many fur coats on top of his jokes.

Speaker 1 I guarantee if Genghis Khan rolled into your fucking Hoboken village on a horseback, you'd be like, that guy is a hoss.

Speaker 13 No, I'd be like, that's a little bit of a

Speaker 1 horse.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 1 You guys have your last two.

Speaker 2 So we're first going up with

Speaker 9 probably one of the Haas' hosses.

Speaker 16 Oh, yeah.

Speaker 4 The boss, Rick Ross.

Speaker 1 Okay. Rick Ross.
Skinny. Big Haas.

Speaker 1 He literally lost like 150.

Speaker 9 He's still like 260 pounds.

Speaker 1 He rents his house on Airbnb.

Speaker 4 He also loves horses, right?

Speaker 1 Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 7 That's a Haas move. Yeah.

Speaker 1 We dominate this draft.

Speaker 9 No, no, we dominate this draft.

Speaker 13 Wait, wait for this to be able to do that.

Speaker 7 We've still got like five first-round picks on our ball.

Speaker 13 Yeah, we'll wait for her to

Speaker 1 easy. This This wasn't our best.

Speaker 1 It's starting to set in.

Speaker 1 I mean, I think Genghis Khan is going to slap on the graphic.

Speaker 2 I'm almost upset that we only have four picks.

Speaker 1 Yeah, we could go eight rounds easy on.

Speaker 9 So, this is a synonym for Haas.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 1 That would imply that there's a definition. No.

Speaker 1 Fuck it. Do it.
Yeah, do the same thing. Come on, this is what it's about.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Billy, go roll.
Billy gets me back. Be creative, Billy.
Take the ball.

Speaker 1 Jake Jake never lets you cook.

Speaker 1 Jake never lets you cook.

Speaker 7 It won't work. Jake's watering you down right now.

Speaker 1 It's sad that they're thinking about the graphic, not the pics. Yeah.
Well, because I think about this is all about. So it's about

Speaker 1 pandering. No, it's pandering.

Speaker 2 It's about being creative. No, no, this is having a good discussion.

Speaker 9 This is the most meta-haas of them all.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 9 It is

Speaker 9 big country.

Speaker 1 Brian Reeves.

Speaker 1 All of them.

Speaker 13 big country in general. You have to pick big country.
But like there's a big Russia, everybody simply for Putin? No, big country.

Speaker 14 Just there's a big country on every team.

Speaker 9 The hoss of the team, sometimes there's actually not that many big countries anymore.

Speaker 4 Bryant, big country, Reeves.

Speaker 1 Is that your big country?

Speaker 13 Yeah, big country.

Speaker 1 No, you have to pick a person.

Speaker 7 No, big country. No, it has to be one big country.

Speaker 13 We chose for guys you don't want to fuck with cars.

Speaker 1 We have a big country on them.

Speaker 13 Yeah, just put big country.

Speaker 1 And they'll put a bunch of flags. And then Russia, U.S.
No, no, no, no, no, no. Big country.
Everybody will just be like, that's Brian. I'm not Bryant Reeves.
Yeah. That was

Speaker 7 you can put Bryant big country Reeves.

Speaker 1 That is who it is. Yeah.
Yeah. That is the official big country.
Remember, we gave Kyle Rudolph that nickname. Yes.
Yeah. Haas.

Speaker 1 Okay. PFT.
Let's nail the perfect draft. Okay.
So he got the perfect draft. So initial big cat.

Speaker 7 Number two, number nine, or the

Speaker 7 guy that you sent me starts with a B.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 1 I like number nine of the guys I sent you starts with a B.

Speaker 7 This is tough. It is really tough.

Speaker 1 This is tough.

Speaker 1 Let's go with the side guy that's.

Speaker 1 All right. I'm just going to say it.
I'm just going to say it. All right.
Say it at the same time.

Speaker 1 No, okay, no, no, no, no, because you're going to get a great pick out of it if we don't.

Speaker 10 They're usually saying another fat guy.

Speaker 1 They just think all Hawks are fat guys. Well, they're also, whatever they say, no.
No,

Speaker 11 they've never lost the draft.

Speaker 1 No, yeah, no, no. I disagree with their dexterity.
What does PFC know about hosts? Nothing.

Speaker 10 You guys are talking about

Speaker 1 Haas. Have you seen Dale? Have you seen Madden Pete? Any of my friends ever?

Speaker 7 All my friends are Haases.

Speaker 1 Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1 They're all Hauses compared to you. I'm a poor chubby child.
Your friends just look like me. Yeah, they all do.

Speaker 7 All the hard factor guys look like a combination of Max and Pig Cat.

Speaker 1 No, when I met them all, I was like, PFC has a type. Yeah.
This is fucked.

Speaker 2 I like big hairy guys.

Speaker 1 What can I say? Zaddies.

Speaker 1 All right.

Speaker 2 No, Big Cat, you take it.

Speaker 1 Okay, okay.

Speaker 1 Three,

Speaker 1 two,

Speaker 1 one, zero. John Cruck.
Good pick.

Speaker 7 Great pick. And Max is probably kicking himself because he's a little bit more.

Speaker 1 Isn't he short? How tall is he? Yeah. He's a hoss.

Speaker 10 You just think the definition of a hoss is fat.

Speaker 1 It's just

Speaker 10 that is what we've come down to. And I take back what I said earlier that that was

Speaker 1 25 tall. So height matters for Andre the Giant.
It matters for Genghis Khan, but it doesn't matter for

Speaker 1 him. 5'10 is a perfectly average money.

Speaker 9 He was probably a hoss in your day, but I don't think it's going to play today.

Speaker 7 It's honestly pathetic that Hank tried to say that John Cruck isn't a hoss.

Speaker 2 So just so we're clear. I'm not.

Speaker 1 Where did I say that?

Speaker 7 Right after the pick was made.

Speaker 1 Just so we're clear, Billy just said John Cruck is not going to play in his day, but he just picked a player for the Vancouver Grizzlies.

Speaker 9 Yeah, well, Big Country on the graphic is going to play so fucking hard.

Speaker 14 It's Bryant Reese. Everybody has Bryant Reese.

Speaker 1 No, but it's Big Country Reese. Yes.
Yeah.

Speaker 9 Everyone sees Big Country. They're like, that's a hoss.
Okay.

Speaker 18 Every

Speaker 13 big country is a hospital.

Speaker 1 It is a shame because we could go another four easy.

Speaker 7 You want to go five? You want to go bonus pick? No.

Speaker 18 Yeah, let's go bonus pick. Yeah, let's go bonus pick.

Speaker 1 The question is, how nuts do we want to get? Yeah, let's go bonus pick. I'm going to, I'm going to, I'm going to

Speaker 1 go still loaded. Okay,

Speaker 1 Donald Trump.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 1 That's not it.

Speaker 1 Have you seen that tennis coat? That tennis pitcher? All right, we're going five rounds. Driving a co-curricular on the ground.
He's on a zen pick.

Speaker 12 He's skinny as fuck right now.

Speaker 1 He looks weak right now. I think we go number three with him.
You said to throw up a Hail Mary.

Speaker 1 If you said throw a screen pass, we could get some vote. If you said throw a screen pass, I would have thrown a screen pass.
You said four verts, Hail Mary, and I threw it up.

Speaker 10 We could get some.

Speaker 10 That name on a graphic.

Speaker 1 He is a Hawaii. You guys want to go six? You got Hawson? Six rounds? No, I'm good.
Six rounds. Really? No.
No,

Speaker 10 we can empty the clip.

Speaker 1 Wait, no, this isn't six. No, four rounds.

Speaker 1 We need to institute a rule

Speaker 7 of not everybody talking over each other during Mount Rush.

Speaker 1 We did institute an out the other day that whatever rules we stick to, we're sticking with.

Speaker 7 That is true.

Speaker 1 Okay. I'm willing to go five rounds, though.
I don't give a fuck. For the record of voting.

Speaker 1 No, it's not. We said the other day we're going to stick with more.

Speaker 7 They're all presidents elected by democracy.

Speaker 1 I knew. See, that's why we're all getting saved because I know you guys are going to do this.
Freedom. Freedom.
Freedom.

Speaker 1 Freedom.

Speaker 1 Freedom.

Speaker 1 All right.

Speaker 7 All those who vote for one extra round of hostes. Raise your hand.
All those who vote against.

Speaker 1 It's freedom. Jake.
Look at me.

Speaker 1 Because just because they have a deep list, like on a one-year deep list, they don't have to do that.

Speaker 1 This is literally

Speaker 14 what they're there. So we have a deep list too.
We have guys.

Speaker 1 It doesn't matter.

Speaker 4 We didn't have top four guys. Now we got five guys.

Speaker 6 You are quite literally moving the goalposts.

Speaker 1 Let's just play with them.

Speaker 1 So, honorable mentions, and when you're thinking about voting, think about how great the honorable mentions were. Lamp on.

Speaker 1 Chris Berman,

Speaker 1 David Wells,

Speaker 1 Vince Wilfork. Yeah.
Cece Sabathia.

Speaker 7 One that I'm surprised.

Speaker 2 That's a good pick.

Speaker 1 Cece Sabathia is a good one. The Runner Bean.

Speaker 16 The Royal Haas.

Speaker 1 The Royal

Speaker 1 Royal Unit.

Speaker 1 Here's one that I was actually surprised that we could have picked it. Big L, the kid who hits Dingers.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 I mean, he's a Haas.

Speaker 16 William Howard Taft.

Speaker 9 We got Hathor Bjornsson, the Mountain.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Yep.

Speaker 2 Yeah, we said Vince Wilford. Toby Keith.

Speaker 7 He's a Haas.

Speaker 13 Former Kansas coach Mark Mangino.

Speaker 1 Oh, that's a Haas. That's a Haas.
Max Gon Getup says.

Speaker 13 Chris Christie, just in appearance.

Speaker 1 Chris Christie, pouring the MMs into the more MMs.

Speaker 7 Yeah, oh, and the baseball pants.

Speaker 1 Yeah, that's a hoss.

Speaker 1 Taft, the president, John Taffer.

Speaker 1 John Taffer is a hoss. He's definitely a hoss.

Speaker 2 John Wayne.

Speaker 7 We actually thought about making a team of all Johns and going John Daly, John Madden, John Cruck, John Wayne.

Speaker 1 That might have worked. Could have worked.

Speaker 12 Prior John from Robin Hood?

Speaker 1 Oh, Big John Thompson. Yeah.
That's a hoss. He's a hoss.
That's a husband. For sure.
Big Magic Johnson.

Speaker 1 What did he do? He got AIDS.

Speaker 1 Big Magic Johnson. Babe Ruth.
Babe Ruth. Big Haas energy.
Big Haws.

Speaker 1 I actually think, well,

Speaker 1 see, this is where I think you guys were wrong with the big country pick because if you did Big Country's. Yo, Moore, by the way, correct.
Or Country Strong, then you would do Adam Dunn.

Speaker 1 You would do Jim Tomey.

Speaker 13 Tony Saracus.

Speaker 1 There's difference between Country Strong and Haas.

Speaker 2 Adam Dunn.

Speaker 1 Yeah, Adam Dunne and Jim Tomey are the same person.

Speaker 7 I don't think there is.

Speaker 10 I think that you're trying to make that difference.

Speaker 1 The thing is,

Speaker 1 if Haas is like, if

Speaker 1 all of our groups of Haases battled, we would dominate. Albert Bell was a Haas.

Speaker 9 Genghis Khan could not play in this era.

Speaker 10 Genghis Khan.

Speaker 7 He couldn't do shit without his crew.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 7 It's a fact. They just swarmed.

Speaker 1 What are you going to do with Genghis Khan? Trying to dick us down? Yeah.

Speaker 1 Worked for him. Worked back then.
Oh, did it?

Speaker 2 How's Mongolia doing these days, Hank?

Speaker 1 Sounds like you're an apologist. well

Speaker 7 yeah billy never mind what we're gonna say about the mongols

Speaker 1 they're badass

Speaker 1 they're pretty badass i do like the when they do like the throat singing that's crazy yeah they well they now uh they're like the best sumo wrestlers in the world boom now con effect uh who's that dodger's pitcher uh

Speaker 1 r r yu how did you pronounce that Injun Ryu or something? Yeah, he was a hoss. Oh,

Speaker 1 what's his name? Hideki Arabu? Yeah. He was a hoss.

Speaker 2 Pablo Sandoval?

Speaker 1 Yep.

Speaker 7 When he broke his belt?

Speaker 1 Pablo Sandoval was a hoss.

Speaker 1 Vogelfat?

Speaker 11 Yeah, you're just saying that. James Harden had a hoss out.

Speaker 1 You just think hoss means fat.

Speaker 10 A hoss is like big, intimidating presence.

Speaker 13 Wide shoulders, wide shoulders.

Speaker 7 I would say that to be a hoss, you should be overweight.

Speaker 10 No. Disagree.

Speaker 9 Your BMI should be out of whack.

Speaker 1 No, no. You should be clinically obese.
By BMI. Yeah.
Well, by the BISI. Oh, well, yeah.
Like The Rock is a Haas. Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 7 Everybody in this room is probably obese on the BMI scale. I definitely am.

Speaker 10 I certainly am.

Speaker 1 Would you please step up?

Speaker 1 Thank you.

Speaker 1 Okay, good draft. Well, but we do have to start not.

Speaker 1 We were just, there was a moment there where I was. No, I'm sorry.
I apologize.

Speaker 7 I think the rule needs to be if two people are screaming at each other, that's fine. A third person can't come in over the top.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 7 Let the two people scream it out before you start screaming.

Speaker 6 Hand up, hand up.

Speaker 10 No, I disagree.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I know.

Speaker 9 It was definitely directed directly at Max.

Speaker 1 No, I don't disagree. I I disagree.
That's correct. I'm sorry.
How you feeling, Hank? I feel great. Great.

Speaker 1 The graphic will tell.

Speaker 1 I see. I can.

Speaker 1 I can. I'm a pick.
I'm going to throw it.

Speaker 7 That's worse than double olives.

Speaker 1 What are you talking about?

Speaker 2 People are going to think you're throwing it. Were you throwing this one?

Speaker 1 Wait, so under the same rules, Bonaparte, Napoleon? Yeah, dude. Hitler? Yeah.
No. Yeah.

Speaker 1 These are kind of the same guys.

Speaker 7 Mussolini kind of a host. Winston Churchill Haas.

Speaker 1 Short guys trying to take over the world.

Speaker 1 Stalin was a Haas.

Speaker 7 Stalin Stalin was a hoss.

Speaker 1 He was 5'8.

Speaker 1 In his era, that's like fucking Andre the Giant.

Speaker 9 Stalin was like a little person, too.

Speaker 2 He's a big boy.

Speaker 1 No, he wasn't.

Speaker 13 That was all coats. 5'8.

Speaker 1 No, he's a big boy.

Speaker 14 No, they wear a lot of coats.

Speaker 7 Haas' mustache.

Speaker 7 He had the stash. Teddy Roosevelt.
Mussolini was a Haas for sure.

Speaker 1 Teddy Roosevelt was

Speaker 1 for sure a hoss.

Speaker 9 Yes, he was a Haas.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 9 Big time hoss. Big stick.

Speaker 7 Oh, Ben Franklin, kind of a Haas.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 7 Maybe too horny to be a Haas.

Speaker 1 No,

Speaker 14 that's when he got active.

Speaker 7 I think Haas is only fuck on bottom.

Speaker 1 Zach Randolph. That's a good pick.
Good Haas. That's a good Haas.
Great Haas. Not Genghis Khan, but

Speaker 1 solid.

Speaker 9 Zeebo.

Speaker 13 Oh, Kim Jong-un.

Speaker 7 Kind of a Hauss. A lot of dictators are Haases now that I think about it.

Speaker 1 That is kind of true. Uh-huh.

Speaker 7 Edi Amin,

Speaker 1 kind of a Haas. Kim Jong-un.

Speaker 7 Oh, Chapo, kind of a Haas.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Yeah.
Definitely. Fidel Castro.
Pablo Escobar was a Haas. Yeah, oh, yeah.

Speaker 1 That's a great one. Fidel Castro invented the Eurostep.
Yeah. What's right? Yeah.
He did. How did I not know this? It's incredible.
He didn't actually know.

Speaker 14 Jay Guevara wrote about how

Speaker 13 Fidel used to do this little side step into layups.

Speaker 9 Yeah.

Speaker 1 People wanted to call it a travel. Wow.
Yeah.

Speaker 7 It changes everything. Yeah.

Speaker 1 It really does. It makes communism a lot more powerful.

Speaker 9 Well, think about where the Eurostep came from, the Eastern Bloc. Like, if he had taught them that.

Speaker 1 If he had just led with that, being like, yeah, okay, we're communists, but watch this Eurostep.

Speaker 7 Yeah. So you can get two on anybody.

Speaker 9 Jokic is on the same coaching tree as all that.

Speaker 14 Think about it.

Speaker 7 Just being from Serbia? Yeah. Also, Billy thought that Palgasol was from France.

Speaker 9 He's technically Catalunian, which is not France.

Speaker 1 Which is in Spain. Also, not France.
It is in Spain. He is like the most Spanish team.
He played for the Spanish national team.

Speaker 7 He's Catalunian. He literally played for Spain on the Olympics.

Speaker 9 That is not Spanish.

Speaker 14 Well, then why did he play?

Speaker 2 Catalunians would agree with me.

Speaker 7 Why did he play for Spain? This picture of Fidel is just

Speaker 1 dude. He's hitting the hardest Euro set of all the people.
He's about like those guys have no idea what they're going to do.

Speaker 1 They're like, is this a traveler?

Speaker 1 I read about him reading travel

Speaker 7 on a murderous dictator.

Speaker 1 This seems like a joke. And then I saw the picture.
I was like, oh, my God, he is hitting that shit.

Speaker 7 You call travel on Fidel. He's taking your farm.

Speaker 1 Yeah, he's got ball low. He's going to bring it high.

Speaker 1 Oh, man.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 7 And now, here's Ryan Rossillo.

Speaker 1 Okay, we now welcome on our draft insider, draft guru, and very special friend. It is Ryan Rossillo.
A couple times in in two weeks. Good to see you, Ryan.

Speaker 1 NBA draft.

Speaker 2 You watch all the tape.

Speaker 1 We thought you are our guy. You got to come on and give us some talking points that we can just tell people randomly, be like, hey, saw this.
Because we watch none of the tape.

Speaker 1 So thank you. And let's start at the top.
Let's start big picture.

Speaker 1 I want to just throw something out there for you. I want you to give me all the players right now that could possibly be traded for the number one pick in the San Antonio Spurs.

Speaker 1 If the Spurs would actually pick up the phone, because I was thinking about it today,

Speaker 1 wouldn't it be smart for the Nuggets to extend their window and trade Jokic for Wembanyama right now?

Speaker 6 Yeah, and it's a rookie-scale contract, so you'd have some more flexibility moving forward. So you got to ask the question.
Got to ask the question.

Speaker 6 If you've never seen it before, how can you even know how good it can be? So the best part is that you frame that with how many players would be traded for him.

Speaker 1 And I was like, we're going to be here a while.

Speaker 6 But I think you meant to say it's the other way around. So, yeah, Jokic, you'd hang up.
Luke, you'd hang up. Giannis, you'd hang up.
Embiid, you'd trade him. Tatum, probably.

Speaker 1 Booker.

Speaker 6 I don't know what they're doing now, but

Speaker 6 the list is probably like three guys.

Speaker 1 That's crazy. That is crazy, right? Like to have the number one pick be only three guys in the NBA that

Speaker 1 you'd even consider.

Speaker 6 Yeah, and even, you know,

Speaker 6 maybe even Dallas would be like,

Speaker 6 you want to just see what happens? Because it kind of goes against, right? It goes against my rule, right? Like my rule usually is when it's not this absurd, when it's not once in a generation.

Speaker 6 And by the way, like anybody who says he's the best, like he's better than LeBron as a prospect, I would completely disagree just because LeBron, body-wise, was NBA ready.

Speaker 6 And as much as I like Wen Ben Yaman, we can get into like what's so special about him. He's going to get hurt.
Like it would be shocking if he doesn't have somebody roll into his legs at some point.

Speaker 6 But the thing that I would also point out is that Durant got hurt all the time.

Speaker 6 And if you could do it all over again, you'd still take him number one, even with all those injuries, because of how good he is.

Speaker 6 I have my own working theory that some of these dudes that are so absurdly big, but also have like perimeter skills, because on offense, he's like a small forward, that I just don't think the human body is supposed to move like a creative player in an NBA video game where you give him like Michael Jordan skills and then make him 7-5.

Speaker 6 Again, he's not Michael Jordan, but you get the point. Like, so I'd imagine, I know they're doing all these preventative things.

Speaker 6 They're doing all these feet workout, all this kind of stuff that I think is really cool, but there's still a really good chance until he builds himself up into his body as talented as he is, he's probably going to get hurt and you're still going to take him.

Speaker 6 So,

Speaker 6 you know, Jokic is just too good and he's still too young. Giannis is still too good and too young.
And, you know, Luca, you might even have a conversation.

Speaker 6 But back to the original point, like, normally I'd go, well, wait, I don't want to trade a guy who i know has already done it for somebody that i've never seen actually do it but that's how special victor is so it is an absurd list it's an absurdly short one and it goes against everything we probably ever think about the draft but uh that's how special he is damn so so tell me about these these workouts that he's putting in the preventative injury stuff what is he actually doing to to make sure that he doesn't get hurt in his first couple years

Speaker 6 um

Speaker 6 You know, they don't, they're, they've zagged a bit on the bulk thing. Like, I remember poor Manute Bowl back in the day.
They were just like, here are cheeseburgers. Like, just go.
Just get fat.

Speaker 1 Try, try to put on his plate.

Speaker 6 Yeah, back then, I don't know that it was as scientific as the options now, but it hasn't been about bulking.

Speaker 6 And the thing is, too, is like he, I mean, did you see the picture of him next to Rudy Gobert?

Speaker 6 Like, he's, he's also, like, big, you know, I know he's skinny and everything, but he's got like a big frame.

Speaker 6 And

Speaker 6 one of the things that I was reading that I thought was really interesting is like these foot strengthening drills. Like it's, it's about his feet.

Speaker 6 Now, on top of every other thing that he's doing, but he does this workout or excuse me, warm-up routine before games where he like really concentrates on getting his feet as stretched out as possible because it's just a lot to ask a pair of feet to run around in a basketball court, jump all over the place, block everything, and have the center of gravity be basically like mutant level.

Speaker 1 It's insane to watch. And then I also just go back to Kenny Lofton Jr.

Speaker 1 bullying him in the post. And I'm just going to stick with that.
We are Wemenyama guys, but there are going to be moments where he looks like a boy playing against men and gets bullied around.

Speaker 1 And you just got to live with that, right? Like, I would imagine if

Speaker 1 he goes up against a guy like Embiid in his rookie year, it's going to look bad.

Speaker 1 And there's going to be moments where it looks bad, and you're just saying he's that special that eventually it will be, you know, all correct itself.

Speaker 6 Yeah, because most of the time, I know Billy always gets upset about his bench numbers, but when you talk about like man strength and when it actually kicks in, like he's still got years to go.

Speaker 6 Like, you just, like, everybody knows this. You, you kind of, depending on like how focused you are on all your stuff, you kind of just start to fill out.

Speaker 6 I mean, some people fill out in different ways than other guys.

Speaker 1 So, that's not going to be through a workout.

Speaker 6 That's going to be adding muscle. That's, it's just going to be part of getting older for him.

Speaker 6 And so, yeah, like, look, he's better off now, though, in this era of basketball than he would have been coming in in the 90s and 80s, where guys would have just tried to post him up.

Speaker 6 People didn't take threes, and everybody had like two enormous guys with a lot of bulk to them. So, the way he plays,

Speaker 6 you know, every time you think you kind of have him figured out, well, I wouldn't even say figured out. Like, you're like, oh, okay, this is who he is.
Like, this is absurd. This is amazing.

Speaker 6 Then he'll do like one thing in a game. You're like, are you kidding me? Like, he had a time where he actually doubled the ball, where they have the big stay on the ball screen with the ball handler.

Speaker 6 So two guys stay with the point guard basically off a screen.

Speaker 6 He usually is like like a guy who's a much better player and you don't care about leaving somebody else open, but it also kind of slows the offense down.

Speaker 6 And what happened was like the guy who cut got behind him and it looked like they had him.

Speaker 6 They looked like they had him on a really good roll off the ball screen because he stayed on the ball handler. He didn't block the pass.

Speaker 6 He like reached back behind him in a way that you don't ever see anybody do it. And he reached back and then he grabbed it.

Speaker 6 And that's just the stupid defensive stuff that he does that changes everybody.

Speaker 6 Like everybody that's going to the the rim, it's not the blocks, it's that you're thinking about him and that he makes up so much ground and then he can also get out and contest.

Speaker 6 But the really special stuff, especially in that Scoot Henderson

Speaker 6 showdown that we saw, which also makes me like Scoot a lot because Scoot was like one of the few guys that was like, I'm going to go at him. Like he had that mentality and it worked a few times.

Speaker 6 It also didn't some other times. But we're talking about somebody who can go between his legs and step back dribble and hit a three.
Like the three-point shooting numbers can be a little bit better.

Speaker 6 You know, I'm not talking about him being like one of the top three-point shooters in the league, but we've we've just never seen anything like this.

Speaker 6 We've never seen a combination of the defensive impact that should be a lead immediately on top of what are you supposed to do.

Speaker 6 Like when Garnett hit fadeaway baseline jumpers, we're like, all right, I give up. Like I'm never going to contest this.
Add five inches to it. And that's what Wemba Yama's doing.

Speaker 2 It sounds like he needs some old man strength, some dad's strength even.

Speaker 7 He should get a girl pregnant. He should get Zion Williamson's Rolodex,

Speaker 7 find some of those girls, bring them in, get dad's strength right off the bat.

Speaker 8 Boom, problem solved.

Speaker 7 I do like Scoot Henderson, though. Scoot Henderson, he seems like he, you kind of alluded to it, he's got the dog in him.

Speaker 7 I don't know if Victor has the dog in him or the Shin or whatever they call it in France.

Speaker 7 Yeah, does Victor Wimbanyama have a poodle in him? Or does he have to work on that?

Speaker 6 No, he actually mixes it up a little bit. You know, when we grew up and, you know, every time you'd watch a Euro or an international guy, you'd be like, soft, whatever.
Like, this guy stinks.

Speaker 6 Like, I remember, like, American guys, if you got into it with Sasha Pavlovich, you had to go extra at him just to prove that you weren't a bitch.

Speaker 6 And I don't know when it changed.

Speaker 6 I don't know when it changed, but whenever I watch some of the international guys now, like, I don't even think about it anymore. You know, I think the thing is so global.

Speaker 6 They're all so used to it now. They've all played.
And, you know, a bunch of Americans. I mean, this isn't new.

Speaker 6 This has been going on now for a couple of decades, but I think it took a little while for any of us to get into the draft to watch guys and be like, you know what? He's got a little attitude to him.

Speaker 6 I remember with Przingis. I was like, this guy's got a little toot

Speaker 6 at times when he's getting ready for the draft. And really, his biggest issue was being hurt.

Speaker 6 But no, Wembin Yama, every now and then, like, he'll look at the, he'll hit a shot and turn around and look.

Speaker 6 Like in that G-League showcase, and usually the bench is saying some shit to you that gets players, even at the NBA level, to turn around and do something.

Speaker 6 But like, he turned around and like stared at him down a couple of times, like looking at him. He'll,

Speaker 6 you know, I don't know that he has the dog in him like Scoot does because I know you guys are going to love my Scoot Chris Paul comp.

Speaker 1 Yes.

Speaker 6 Because, you know, know, we're talking about all like first team, all dog guys. But I'm not worried about like one bunyama going, oh my God, like I'm in the NBA now.
Like this is freaking me out.

Speaker 6 Like if he fails, it's not going to be. I highly doubt that he's.

Speaker 6 I don't watch a guy that.

Speaker 6 you know, it's just kind of big and happens to be skilled.

Speaker 6 I think there's, I think the fact that he kept playing, and granted he was under contract, and there's all sorts of debates about my thoughts on that, but he could have just said, screw it.

Speaker 6 And he could have also, he could be charged with a couple felonies and still go number one. But

Speaker 6 I just think that his competitiveness, because, you know, a lot of big guys don't always love basketball. And so far, right now, everybody that's talked to him, everybody loves him.

Speaker 6 And I think as far as not being a dad, that's probably why his family was cheering for him not going to Houston.

Speaker 1 That's true. By the way, I think the Euro guys switched with Dabo Cephalosha.
I think that was the moment.

Speaker 1 I think that was when everyone was like, oh, shit, you can't fuck with these guys anymore.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I mean, he's one of the toughest guys ever.

Speaker 6 He was wearing 90 Air Maxes in basketball games.

Speaker 1 Like, those things are like clogs. So, I mean, you want to talk about that?

Speaker 1 Yeah, I might have to do a thesis on this. How Tabo changed the entire perception of Euro plays in the NBA.
All right. They just got dirty.

Speaker 2 They were a bigger player, I think. I think

Speaker 7 they switched. They rebranded.
They went from being soft to just being kind of dirty player or something. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Flopping and all that. Yeah.
All right. Give us the dog list.
Give us the dog list. First round dog list.

Speaker 1 Rank them one through whatever, however deep you want to go.

Speaker 6 Or yeah, maybe rank them like Pitbull through like Chihuahua.

Speaker 7 Different breeds of dogs.

Speaker 6 You're better with the breeds than I am, to be honest with you. So just

Speaker 1 we'll go back and forth.

Speaker 7 Okay.

Speaker 6 All right. Cam Whitmore is definitely on that list, maybe number one overall, the Villanova freshman.

Speaker 6 Watching him play is like

Speaker 6 every time he gets the ball, he's going left and he beats everybody every single time.

Speaker 6 I'm not sure he's going to be able to get to the hoop the way he did in college, where just like, I guess nobody's ever going to stop him.

Speaker 6 And then, even if somebody got the angle on him, he would just bull into him. There was a Providence game where it was like the second possession of the game.
Nobody's even sweating yet.

Speaker 6 He went into the post, and there was this poor kid who like got him on the block. And I don't even know if it was his assignment.

Speaker 6 It may have just been a switch, you know, just kind of like getting cross-matched. And Whitmore went hit him so strong, like, I thought this kid was going to go into the transfer portal immediately.

Speaker 6 Like, he, the kid was like overwhelmed because it was like, holy shit, this guy's at like level 11 energy this early into the game. So Whitmore is definitely on there.

Speaker 1 Didn't make it to NIT. Just going to throw that out there.
No, no doubt.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 6 What would be a dog that's really tenacious but single-minded?

Speaker 7 What was the shitty

Speaker 1 Border Collie, maybe?

Speaker 1 Yeah, or like a cattle dog, like one of those cattle dogs that's like basically born to do one thing and they do it exceptionally well, but like they're not going to do other stuff.

Speaker 7 I would say a red healer.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 6 Yeah, okay. All right.
That's good.

Speaker 1 Um, my other, my other guy, I'm going with is uh we're both we're all learning stuff here, right?

Speaker 6 James Najee. Um, you know, look, if he doesn't last in the league, Najee is gonna work here anymore, office space.
Um, but I uh

Speaker 1 that's good, he's

Speaker 1 so bad.

Speaker 6 I'm not going to tell you he's the best basketball player you've ever seen. Okay.
Because he's not that. He's probably a late first-round guy.
His wingspan, however, is 7-7.

Speaker 6 And the way, like, as soon as he checks in the game, you're not like, oh, we got to guard him, but it would be kind of like, shit, he's in. Like, this is just going to be hard.

Speaker 6 Everything is going to be harder now because he attacks the glass, like, even when he doesn't have a chance.

Speaker 6 It's like an annoying guy in pickup where you're like, you were boxed out from 15 feet away. Like, what are you doing? Are you going to do this the whole game? Like, this is going to suck.

Speaker 6 And granted, he's getting paid. It's a little different than pickup hoops, but

Speaker 6 he's not skilled. He's not, he's very raw.
But as soon as he checks in the game, things are just different. And it's because of his energy, his size, his strength.

Speaker 6 And I think he actually has a chance to make a roster here.

Speaker 1 Okay. He looks like a tight end who's playing basketball.
Like, he's so built. It's crazy.

Speaker 1 You don't see basketball players i feel like built like that anymore with like actual i mean yannis has gotten to that point but a lot of guys aren't built that same way they're built in different ways and not in like for quick movements and not he looks like he'll fuck some people up

Speaker 6 dude i'm telling you when he when he checks into the game you just go because like sometimes you're watching the other guys you know if you're going through games and then i can sort it through clips on synergy and so sometimes i'll just go clips on guys and then you're like oh i'm not even watching najee and then it's just like, you can't stop watching him because he just kicks everybody's ass the whole time.

Speaker 6 Another guy, this isn't a

Speaker 1 real quick for him.

Speaker 7 I would say that he's Major Biden. Wasn't that the shitty Biden dog that just bit everybody? He came in and like everyone was afraid to be around him.
Major Biden. That's him.

Speaker 6 Okay, I'm going to need help on the

Speaker 6 breed for this one.

Speaker 6 And Big Cat can probably. When I watched Ohio State, when I went back and watched it all, it was like they had an intramural football team.

Speaker 6 They were like, hey, do you guys also want to play basketball? And so they had all these like thick, stout dudes. And Bryce Sensiball, who apparently is going late teens, he's not my favorite player.

Speaker 6 He averaged 12 and a half shots per game in only 24 minutes, which is actually kind of hard to do. I don't know that he defends, but he would watch you, he'd be a dog that would watch you eat.

Speaker 6 And never, and your friends would come over and be like, hey, anything you can do here? And you'd be like, no, like, this is what he does. He's going to eat no matter what.
He's waiting it out.

Speaker 6 Be like, does he do it? Can he do something else? Can he defend the house? Nope. Not interested.
He's going to let strangers walk right past.

Speaker 6 But when it's mealtime, he's going to get his, and there's nothing you can do about it. And if you leave your plate, it's going to be gone.
So I don't know if that makes any sense.

Speaker 6 I didn't expect to get this deep into the dog breed.

Speaker 16 Husky picks up. That's a husky for sure.
Yeah, that's a husky.

Speaker 7 And if you leave the plate out, he will literally eat himself until he dies.

Speaker 1 Yeah. And watching Ohio State this entire year, and Titus can attest this.

Speaker 1 You'd watch them and they would show flashes where you're like, this team is like a top 10 talent-wise team. And then they would just stop playing basketball for long stretches.

Speaker 1 And it was like shocking to watch. We were like, what just happened? They would lose leads.
They wouldn't score. Like, they would just do dumb things, turnovers.

Speaker 1 A lot of young guys. And I do like Bryce Sensiba.
He's, he, he can, he can, you know what they, they call this one, Ryan? He can fill it up.

Speaker 1 You can take that with you to, uh, when you do your draft coverage. He can fill it up.

Speaker 6 Yeah. Um, that's, uh,

Speaker 6 that's one I definitely hope to use.

Speaker 1 That's fine.

Speaker 1 And I'm writing it down. Fill it up.
Yeah.

Speaker 7 You use that once, and then they're like, what do you mean he can fill it up? And then you say, he can score the basketball.

Speaker 6 Yeah. Score the basketball.
He gets it. Whoever invented that.
No, that's worse than guys. Apparently, dudes in men's leagues now are tapping after missed free throws.

Speaker 6 Like, no one should be high-fiving anybody. We need these games to go quicker.
Whoever started that, and then everybody thinks that you're supposed to do it.

Speaker 6 Then I remember years ago, the Wall Street Journal had some study about how, like, teams that touched each other more were more successful.

Speaker 6 And you're like, yeah, because they're good and they have more things to celebrate.

Speaker 6 Like, nobody, like, the Wizards can't go to next year being like, just keep touching each other all the time and we'll win 40 games.

Speaker 1 I will say, though, I agree with you that, like, in intramural game to do that, but when you're playing in a pickup game, like you can't do it often, but like maybe once a month, call a good old-fashioned timeout when you're about to go out of bounds, when there's no timeouts.

Speaker 1 That will get some good laughs. That will get some good laughs from the crew when you're just like falling out of bounds.
You call a timeout. It's like, we're playing pickup.

Speaker 1 What the fuck are you talking about?

Speaker 6 A guy got a pretty good elbow on me, like.

Speaker 6 and then like put my arm behind my my back when i was trying to like get to the hoop and i was pissed and like now all of a sudden, the intensity went up, and I was like, I'm just going to get this guy in the post and go through him.

Speaker 6 I don't care. And I don't know what he was doing.
He like read it perfectly and then took the first bump. And then the second one, he just pulled a chair for me and backed up.

Speaker 6 And I fell on the asphalt and just yard sailed. And I was so pissed.
And he went to help me up. And I was like, fuck off.
And then he's like, what? What?

Speaker 1 I was like, no, no, no.

Speaker 6 What you did was awesome. It worked.
I'm just super pissed. I ate it and fell down on the ground.

Speaker 1 And he's like, that doesn't make a lot of sense.

Speaker 6 I was like, it does to me.

Speaker 1 The OA. Yeah.

Speaker 6 Yeah. Like, I'm congratulating you on a tactically beautiful play, but I'm also really pissed you did it.
So there you go.

Speaker 7 The inverse to Big Cat's suggestion would be like in the NBA, if there was a tieball and then somebody just goes first.

Speaker 7 That would get a good laugh, I would think.

Speaker 1 First.

Speaker 6 I like saying shirts and skins like right away. Just like half

Speaker 1 and go, hey, we're skins.

Speaker 7 You say it as a total joke, I bet, Ryan.

Speaker 1 Yeah, that shit gives me like heart palpitations where I'm like, oh, fuck. Can we skins? Why don't we just go to the wall? No, if you just go, you know, light shirts, dark shirts.
Let's just do that.

Speaker 6 When no one's running shirts and skins, and then you get on and half pull your shirt up and scream, we'll be skins, and you don't know the other four guys.

Speaker 6 Usually, it's not a laugh as much as it's like, what?

Speaker 1 Are you fucking with me?

Speaker 1 I'm the guy who's in the corner being like, wait, no, no. I'm wearing white.
He's got light blue.

Speaker 1 So we'll be on the same team and just trying to like parse it all together with like, he's got a little bit of a gray shirt. You be on our team.
Yeah. All right.
So what about reverse, Ryan?

Speaker 1 The guys who need some dog, the guys who are going to be first-round picks and they're good at basketball, but you'd like to see a little more grit, a little more something to them.

Speaker 6 Okay.

Speaker 6 I'm going to go with two big guys off the jump here. Derek Lively, the freshman for Duke.
This is a really weird draft in that, and I think this number's right. I've shared it a few times before.

Speaker 6 But since Anthony Davis was the number one player in high school in his class, and then he went number one, every player that's been number one as far as the rankings are concerned out of high school, and I know there's some variation on those, five of those 11 picks have gone number one.

Speaker 6 And the lowest we've had a number one player in his class go,

Speaker 6 and again, the ratings can fluctuate at times, was Emmanuel Mudier who went seventh. You have actually four different players that at one point were number one in the high school class in this draft.

Speaker 6 And it's four, if you include GJG Jackson, who reclassified, who's obviously not, I don't think it's going to go in the lottery.

Speaker 6 So you've got Lively, you've got Whitehead also at Duke, and then you've got Nick Smith at Arkansas, who are all number one on rivals 24-7 in ESPN.

Speaker 6 And none of them are even going to go on the lottery. I don't know how Lively ended up.
I don't follow the high school stuff until after the fact. I'll just look to see where they were ranked.

Speaker 6 So I didn't watch it. But I went back because I thought Lively at Duke, yes, defensively.
impactful.

Speaker 6 Yes, really good on the rim runs and slipping the screen and knowing how to do that and being a really great lob threat because he's huge. But there were other times where he got the ball.

Speaker 6 And if it wasn't off of something like that, he looked lost, like lost. And I still think he's going to go in the lottery.
So

Speaker 6 I know there's video of him hitting threes at workouts. I mean, we've seen some of that stuff before.
I think Mo Bamba said a Larry Bird type record in some workout where he couldn't miss a shot.

Speaker 6 And again, cool. But with lively, I just need to see him be a little bit more comfortable with the basketball.

Speaker 6 And I felt like at Duke, if it wasn't a lob, he was pretty unsure of what he wanted to do.

Speaker 1 The other guy, I think I'm going to go clowny. Yeah, go ahead.

Speaker 7 I was just going to say, we had a theory that at Ohio State, when they run their 40-yard dash in football, when they time it at pro day, that their yard lines are slightly closer together than a yard.

Speaker 7 So their 40 times are all blazing fast. Do you think that a team could get away with it, like a college team or

Speaker 7 I guess if they were doing like a workout with their agent or somewhere overseas, if it was a European guy, and they're working out in a gym and the rim is like two inches bigger, like a slightly larger rim during this workout.

Speaker 7 So they're filling it up. They're scoring basketball in the workout.
Do you think that the scouts would actually notice, hey, something's up here?

Speaker 1 The New York City rims that Mello plays at, that one court that all the guys play at? I swear to God, those rims are bigger.

Speaker 7 Just make them just like two inches bigger. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 6 This is genius. I don't know that I've ever heard of anybody doing it, but why wouldn't one of the testing facilities that's like not a school, but where they do some of the joint workouts?

Speaker 6 Like right after the combine out in California, there's all these different places that have these workouts. So all the teams fly out here and go up and down the coast.

Speaker 6 That's smart. You should do it.
I don't know how anyone would ever notice it. I'm sure somebody hasn't.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Yeah, because soft,

Speaker 1 soft rims you notice, but like slightly larger? Yeah.

Speaker 7 Unless they get up there with their iPhone and like measure side to side.

Speaker 6 Nobody's doing that.

Speaker 1 They'd get out of here. I swear to God, you know what gym I'm talking about, Ryan? The one in Manhattan that Melo's always playing at? That's like, it's

Speaker 1 all the pros play whenever they come to New York City. Yeah, that has bigger rims.
I guarantee you it.

Speaker 6 We're going to have to investigate.

Speaker 1 We're going to have to boot up.

Speaker 2 Yeah, I mean, this is a million dollar idea here.

Speaker 7 Just start a company that makes bigger rims and you just sell it to like one agent or one workout guru guy, and then boom, you're swimming in money.

Speaker 6 I don't hate it. I don't hate it.
You probably should edit this out because you should pitch it.

Speaker 1 Big rims. Yeah.
Max. No, seriously, like it could be a business.

Speaker 1 But with a C. It could be.
Well, no.

Speaker 1 Call it Rim C.

Speaker 2 I like that. That's good.

Speaker 1 Now what we do is we go and spin.

Speaker 2 They also spin.

Speaker 1 We bust the people who are doing this. Because now that we've put it out there, it's like a test to see who's immoral.
And we'll go find them. So some team should hire us to go test the rims.

Speaker 7 We're the rim doctors.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 6 Maybe you could bring back data, too. Remember those?

Speaker 1 The spinners on the shoes? Yeah.

Speaker 6 Remember the East Bay catalog will come and be like, should I get yellow and red data?

Speaker 1 Of course.

Speaker 6 I'm like, I'm not sure.

Speaker 7 Oh, East Bay was the best.

Speaker 6 East Bay was the best.

Speaker 6 I bought the jump shoes, I think, in my late 20s.

Speaker 7 Didn't work. Yeah, who would ever do that?

Speaker 1 Nobody would do that. Not me.
Not me.

Speaker 7 I have a question, unless there's another guy that you say needs to get a bigger dog in him, but I have a question about one prospect in particular who has a dog in him.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 7 Marquise Noel,

Speaker 7 Kansas State. Is he going to be drafted or is he going to go just, is he going to be very lonely on draft night? Because he, he confirmed has a dog in him.

Speaker 7 It's just a very small, angry, aggressive dog.

Speaker 6 It's pretty small. It's a pretty small dog.

Speaker 6 I don't even know. It sucked too, because they used to do the measurements in shoes.

Speaker 6 And so now I've got to like recalibrate all this stuff because we'd be at the combine, right?

Speaker 6 And for whatever reason, the NBA measurement was always like whatever you you saw at the beginning of their career, it'd be like, hey, they have shoes on, right?

Speaker 6 So they just stopped doing that. So now everybody's just going to be across the board, like an inch and a half shorter than everybody else.
And yeah, he wasn't even on the list. So

Speaker 6 he might be up for adoption.

Speaker 1 Oh,

Speaker 6 you know what? Like,

Speaker 6 they could have a whole campaign around it and be like, he was a rescue.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 1 Who's safe?

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 1 Favorite guy that no one's talking about. Your guy that you're going to put your reputation on and be like, this is my pick.

Speaker 6 Well, I can't pick anybody up top then.

Speaker 6 You know what?

Speaker 6 I'm going to give you two.

Speaker 6 Olivier Max Prosper, the kid from Montreal, played at Marquette.

Speaker 6 I like him, and I also like...

Speaker 6 The kid from Pepperdine, Maxwell,

Speaker 6 who's probably like late first, early second.

Speaker 6 So Lewis, to me, is like, if he were at a major program, I don't think there's even a question, just based on his skill set and his size, and I think how much better he's going to get.

Speaker 6 Also, he has like a really weird high school story where like, you know, they didn't have basketball his freshman year. Like, who goes to, who's like potentially going to play in the NBA?

Speaker 6 It's like, oh, too bad. No basketball in town.
It's like... foot loose or something, you know, not allowed to dance.
So then he had to play like JV and then he transferred around.

Speaker 6 It was, it's just, I'm not even sure after I read it, I was like, what is this?

Speaker 6 So when I watched him more and more, I'm like, man, this guy, like full, full-on NBA body, NBA athleticism, the shot making, the dribbling, the attacking, all of it.

Speaker 6 I was like, man, I think he's better than where he slotted. And then I think with Prosper, he's just so intense

Speaker 1 that

Speaker 6 I have a hard time believing like that kind of guy. You know, like whenever I look at somebody, I'm like, okay, the worst version of him is what?

Speaker 6 And then with him, I'm like, well, plays defense, makes enough threes, active roster guy.

Speaker 6 The best version is, you know, holy shit, you actually got somebody who's getting a second and third contract here, which is not as common as people make it out to be.

Speaker 6 You know, half the top 10 picks end up on another team or two or three years. Part of it's the value as a former top 10 pick for the next mad guy that wants to be traded somewhere.

Speaker 6 You go through it, and I'll do it again this year before the draft, like you'd be shocked how often even the top picks don't even get to the second contract with the original team that drafted them.

Speaker 6 So then you factor in, like, after 15, 16, 17, historically, like, you're lucky to even get a rotation guy.

Speaker 6 And draft night, it always feels like, oh, hey, this guy's going to do this and he's going to do that. He's going to do this.
And like, yeah, man, actually, a lot of these guys would be in Turkey. So

Speaker 6 whenever I'm looking at the 20s, when I think of, okay, there's certain players that are better.

Speaker 6 You know, the kid from Xavier, Colby Jones, is just a better basketball player. Ben Shepard from Belmont's a better basketball player than some of the other guys.

Speaker 6 But physically, I think Lewis and Prosper stand out in that group for me.

Speaker 1 Okay. What about Miller?

Speaker 7 What about Brandon Miller? Is any team out there, like he might go second, right? Might go third.

Speaker 7 I would personally take Scoot second, but

Speaker 7 is there any concern from NBA teams, given what happened at Alabama this year? Is there any concern at all taking a guy that was associated with a shootout?

Speaker 6 I think there's concern up until they watch the tape, you you know, to be realistic about it.

Speaker 6 Like, I haven't heard a team say, oh, you know, anybody that's like, we wouldn't take him, like, where are you picking 28? Don't worry about it, you know? Like, I just haven't heard anybody,

Speaker 6 I haven't heard anybody say, because not that many teams are even in the mix. And I think there's even teams that would be willing to trade up depending on how the Scoop Miller thing plays out there.

Speaker 6 So not to be dismissive of what happened, his involvement of it

Speaker 1 at all, but

Speaker 6 I think we all know with sports, especially with this thing kind of like it felt like it kind of went away a little bit too. You know, it doesn't have, you know, draft night, okay, fine.

Speaker 6 There'll be a story. There'll be a local paper that says that they shouldn't have done this.
And then, you know, once he get out, gets out there, like it's hard because I'm with you.

Speaker 6 Like, I like Scoot better, but when you watch Brandon Miller go off, you're like, wait, I like somebody better than this dude.

Speaker 6 Like, you just feel like you're going to be wrong because his shot making at that size and what you'd think he'd be able to do defensively.

Speaker 6 And it's not just the shots, but he's, you you know, he's exactly what you want today's NBA, this massive wing who can shoot the hell out of the ball.

Speaker 1 Okay,

Speaker 1 a couple last questions.

Speaker 1 This one, you could do both. So it kind of sucks to ask, but what is the one prospect that you've, through your years of watching basketball?

Speaker 1 So this is before even you were maybe even saying it on radio or podcasts that you loved and sucked, ended up sucking. Can't even say it's injury.
He just sucked. And then you give us the reverse.

Speaker 1 The one guy that you've, you've you've been like touting, and you were dead on, and no one else saw.

Speaker 6 Okay, I love this.

Speaker 1 I'm gonna, I should always have I always thought, I'll, I'll, you know, what

Speaker 1 I'll, I'll go, I'll go real quick. I always thought Shaq was just big,

Speaker 6 yeah, that's a tough one.

Speaker 2 He's not, he's not cut out to play in the NBA.

Speaker 1 I was just like, he's just big, like, it's not like he's not skilled, he's just bigger than everyone.

Speaker 1 That was wrong.

Speaker 6 Well, he was also, I mean,

Speaker 6 I have a couple international ones way back in the day, like Mohamed Sercenay.

Speaker 6 And then there was another kid named Sergei Monia, who I fucking loved. And then it was like, what happened to him? Last year, my late guy was Gabriel Procida.

Speaker 6 And he was in Berlin this year, missing everything, apparently. And I was like, man, the Pistons know what they're doing.
I was like, I'm so smart. I'm so smart.
So

Speaker 6 I had a weird weakness for some of the international guys. I'm going to blame Chad Ford, but this is like decades ago.

Speaker 6 Let's see. No, I liked Wendell.

Speaker 6 Look, I have misses like everybody. Craig Brackens was somebody I really liked.
I think I liked Marcus Pfizer, but I didn't realize he was like 100 years old with really bad knees.

Speaker 6 So I'm going to give myself an out on that one.

Speaker 6 Who else did I like?

Speaker 6 I don't know that I liked Jarrett Culver all that much.

Speaker 6 I don't know. I feel like I'm not giving you enough here because I definitely have plenty of misses.

Speaker 7 I liked Duane Blair. I thought that he he was going to be the truth.

Speaker 1 Yeah, but dude, honestly, for a guy with no ACLs,

Speaker 6 the guy with no ACLs in both knees, like that was,

Speaker 6 he was actually pretty good, I thought.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Oh, you know what? Derek? I can't handle his ass.

Speaker 6 I'm shocked Derrick Williams, the number two pick behind Kyrie, was that bad. Like he was,

Speaker 1 he played.

Speaker 6 For a bunch of teams, and it was weird, too. Like, I think, I'll see if I pull it up here.

Speaker 6 His college stats, I think he shot some absurd number i'm gonna i'm looking this up because i remember we used to do those chats on espn where it was on espn.com and they were like what do you think of derrick williams and i was like well you know he's he's awesome remember him at arizona and um

Speaker 6 he shot He shot 57% on threes his second season at Arizona. He only took two, but 57% on threes.
So I was like, well, he's not going to shoot 57% on threes the rest of his life.

Speaker 6 And then a guy was clearly an Arizona fan. He was like, well, why don't you think he will?

Speaker 1 Like, well,

Speaker 1 he just, I don't know.

Speaker 6 Like, do I need to explain that to you? So

Speaker 6 that was a whiff because he was gone immediately. I liked Jan Veseli's athleticism.
The NBA did not. He lasted three years.

Speaker 6 I hate to say this about our guy Jimmer, but I was like, I just don't see how an NBA team is going to let him take all these shots, even though they went in.

Speaker 6 Yeah, I mean, I don't know. I feel like I'm not giving you misses.

Speaker 1 And then, who have you been right about?

Speaker 6 I was so, well,

Speaker 6 let me see who else.

Speaker 1 Because we were right about

Speaker 6 you guys are always, you were on that early, like his third or fourth year in the league. You guys were like, this guy's going to be awesome.

Speaker 1 No, before that, he was

Speaker 1 passported. I thought Luke Babbitt.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 1 Sorry, go ahead.

Speaker 1 No, yeah, we, we, no, the media got it right. Like, we said he was the next chosen one.
We were all right about that.

Speaker 7 He lived up to our expectations that we set for him.

Speaker 1 He didn't do anything special if you actually go expectations-wise.

Speaker 7 He has to win two more titles, and then he will fulfill the prophecy. But until he does that, kind of a bust.

Speaker 6 I was kind of surprised Gravis Vasquez lasted as long as he did. All right.

Speaker 1 The hits.

Speaker 6 When I was a little kid and Tate George hit the game winner against Clemson, and then he went in the first round, I was like, dad, what are the idiots? So that was Tate George. I had that one right.

Speaker 1 Nice.

Speaker 6 I shared this one with Woge, but before I was even in the media and I would sit at home with legal pads, this is so embarrassing. I'm not going to admit this part then.
Never mind.

Speaker 1 I

Speaker 7 also got to say, you would sit at home with legal pads and you would just write down guys' names and be like, I love this guy.

Speaker 6 This was like before Reddit even existed, right? This is how long ago this was. This is over 20 years ago.
I wanted a team to make a a trade.

Speaker 6 I wanted them to trade picks for this other veteran player. And so I was like, how come no one's talking about this? So I called the team.
I think I was like 23. And I was like, hey,

Speaker 6 I was like, are you guys hearing anything about this? And they put me on with like the lowest level person in PR. Like, seriously, the team answer was like, hold on.

Speaker 6 It was almost as bad as PFT getting into Jason Kidd, which is poor, that poor lady. I hope she still has a job there with the Bucs.

Speaker 6 I still can't believe that happened. So anyway,

Speaker 1 I called it Deli.

Speaker 6 No, but that's, you know, you called saying you were Delavadova to get to Jason Kidd,

Speaker 6 and Jason Kidd ended up being on the air. And it was funny, too, because guys are like, oh, Rosillo, what are you going to start being immature because you're having the barstool guys on?

Speaker 6 I'm like, I don't care what you call us. That's legitimately funny.
Like anybody pulling that off, you got through to Jason Kidd.

Speaker 1 He just calls.

Speaker 2 He's like, hey, it's coach there.

Speaker 6 They're like, hold on.

Speaker 6 Yeah, so I called the team.

Speaker 6 I'm not going to say the team or who the player was and i was like hey have you heard anything about this trade and they some some woman got on the phone and she's like the team is aware that that is something going on but we have no official comment on this time and i'd be like all right and i'd turn madden back on like and i was like what did you think you were just

Speaker 1 i thought that you were like a legitimate member of the media asking for a quote on it but you were just a guy with an idea yeah i was just a guy with an idea today

Speaker 6 all right that was it what'd you do today perfect i try to plant the seeds of this guy moving. What'd you do today?

Speaker 1 That's incredible.

Speaker 6 You know, it's like a mock Twitter account with the fake wojes and the fake everybody's and all these guys. Like,

Speaker 6 I used to have a legal pad out and I would keep notes on different stuff I was seeing. And I didn't even work.
I was bartending. I mean, that's fucking insane behavior.

Speaker 6 I shouldn't even have admitted that.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 1 That's actually better, Ryan, because that's better because people are like, oh, he's a loser. He sits at home all day and watches all these games.

Speaker 1 Like, no, you've always been a loser yeah right i was cool actually when i was doing that

Speaker 6 yeah that's that's way weirder uh yeah richard jefferson was another that one when richard jefferson went as late as he did i'm like do these people not see what i just saw and i was i was like okay i'm i'm gonna have to be a gm these guys suck at it and then once i learned how they did it i was like actually this job's really really hard and there's no way to improve with cap space really most of the teams have to waste their cap space and then draft picks are a total coin toss if a guy you draft ends up just not liking basketball you're fucked your owners get pissed you get fired every three years um and then if you have a really good player but it's not a cool city you're gonna lose him too so the job uh as i learn more about it i respect the job a lot more than i used to when i was just a dude who was cheering on teams

Speaker 7 so if you put on your if you put on your gm hat right now and you're the spurs Do you already start to build around Wimbinyama? How do you do that?

Speaker 7 Do you wait until he gets a year in the league and you see exactly how he translates on the court?

Speaker 7 And then you're like, okay, now I have an idea of who we should pick up, who we should put around him. Or do you do that like right now?

Speaker 6 I think you just start the process with it. And not to rip off the Sixers

Speaker 6 term there, but I think it's gotten used so much it doesn't even apply to them necessarily. I think he's going to be pretty good defensively immediately.

Speaker 6 I'd be shocked if he wasn't making a defensive impact.

Speaker 6 They're not a good team, but they're a great organization, and it's actually like a great spot for him because I think they're going to take it serious and do it the right way.

Speaker 6 I'd imagine if they have access to anybody that's that's good,

Speaker 6 you know, it's going to cost them more because if it's a vet who's good, it's like, I don't know that I want to go there right now.

Speaker 6 I'd imagine they're going to just do shorter contracts. And next year's draft is like already, people are talking about it.

Speaker 6 Like last year, they were saying how bad, historically bad, 24 was going to be. You know, things can change and momentum, but when you start going through it, you're like, whoa.

Speaker 6 So I don't think it's worth like tanking or being bad again on purpose.

Speaker 6 I mean, the weird thing is, is all the teams that are generally bad have been stockpiling so so much talent the last couple of years that there's no clear team of like, okay, they're definitely going to suck.

Speaker 6 So San Antonio could still have one of the three or four worst records because Orlando feels like they're building something. Houston's trying to figure it out.

Speaker 6 Detroit's getting this awesome back court back once Cade comes back. OKC wasn't even supposed to be good this year and they were competitive.
Marketing is taking such a jump with Kessler.

Speaker 6 So like, you know, a lot of years we had all these teams. You're like, those six teams are going to be dreadful.

Speaker 6 And it was happening this year where you saw those teams that normally are not going to have great records. You're like, you know what?

Speaker 6 They're actually pretty talented because they've been bad for so long. They finally hit on some of these picks.
So San Antonio could still be in the mix where it's not a great lottery.

Speaker 6 I just think everything they do, they're not going to have access to like a franchise-changing player to pair with Wembanyama this early.

Speaker 6 They're just not because that guy's not going to demand to be traded to San Antonio.

Speaker 6 I don't know that that's ever happened, even when they were good, unless it was a guy at the end of his thing or wanted to kind of show up and try to get a ring. So they're not positioned for that.

Speaker 6 I think everything they do has to be short-term for the right guys around them, knowing they're going to reinvent this thing a couple of times around Wimbanyama.

Speaker 1 Okay, I like it. All right, I got one last question.

Speaker 4 Whether I'm hosting game day at my place or taking my talents to the tailgate, Boarshead is my go-to for a spread that's as exciting as the game itself. Their platters are a hit every time.

Speaker 4 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 4 My personal favorite, the blazing buffalo chicken, hummus, or even one of their charcuterie collections for game-changing flavor.

Speaker 4 Boarshead helps me elevate my entertaining every time, whether it's for a tailgate or a home gating celebration.

Speaker 4 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 1 Last question.

Speaker 1 Are you a Wizards fan now?

Speaker 6 No, he's going to be bought out or traded.

Speaker 1 How do you know that? Oh, come on. Let PFT have a moment.
Come on.

Speaker 7 Listen, we're building something here in the district, Ryan. Like, everyone says the Wizards don't have a plan.

Speaker 7 Why would they give Bradley Beal Supermax contract and a no-trade clause and then trade him the very next year for absolutely nothing?

Speaker 7 They don't understand the big picture that we had in place, which was we're getting Chris Paul. We're building the big three, big four, even if you count Kuzma, Porzingis, Kispert.

Speaker 7 You got Kispert and Chris Paul.

Speaker 2 Johnny Davis.

Speaker 7 And Johnny Davis come into his own.

Speaker 1 I know way too many wizards. I was wrong.
I was wrong about Johnny Davis.

Speaker 1 Johnny Davis barely played.

Speaker 7 I told John Thompson III, I ran into him at a rugby game about a year ago, and

Speaker 7 I was drunk, and I was like, I got two words for you. Johnny Davis, draft Johnny Davis.
He's like,

Speaker 7 why do you like Johnny Davis?

Speaker 2 I was like, the kid can fill it up.

Speaker 7 He's just, he's a scorer. Score of the best.
And then he took Johnny Davis, and then

Speaker 7 I watched him, and I was like, I may have given John Thompson bad advice on that one.

Speaker 1 Sorry,

Speaker 1 he needs some time. He needs some time.

Speaker 1 He should have come back.

Speaker 1 I think it's a a good thing for him. It's his junior year.

Speaker 6 It's better for Ovechkin if they buy him out because Chris Paul can't own the city this quickly.

Speaker 1 That's true. That's true.

Speaker 1 That's a good point.

Speaker 7 Now, where would you in your wildest dreams, Ron, your deepest, I was going to say darkest fantasies, but most erotic fantasies, where would you like to see Chris Paul play next year?

Speaker 6 Phoenix.

Speaker 1 I'd actually like to see him.

Speaker 6 I got one for you. I think you know I'm not like the biggest homer on all this stuff, but I would love to see him in Boston because I think it makes sense.

Speaker 1 He would be good.

Speaker 1 They need a point card. I got one for you.
What about Milwaukee? And they trade Drew for

Speaker 1 a new younger piece.

Speaker 6 I don't think they need to do that. They don't want to trade Drew, and Drew's better defensively than Chris at this stage.

Speaker 1 And look,

Speaker 1 Chris Paul wasn't good this year.

Speaker 6 He wasn't good this year. So, you know, I don't think you need to be trading like a major asset for him.

Speaker 6 I think it's just a smaller asset, or you wait on the buyout market because there's a really good chance, too, the Wizards might do him a solid here and save 15 million bucks.

Speaker 1 Okay, so

Speaker 1 not a Wizards fan.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Even though he is on the Wizards right now.

Speaker 6 I ordered a jersey.

Speaker 1 Don't get me wrong, but that just.

Speaker 6 I got to have everyone.

Speaker 1 If I'm going to do it right, I got to have everyone.

Speaker 7 It's like Coach Cowell's basement.

Speaker 7 Ryan's kitchen just has every Chris Paul jersey hanging behind.

Speaker 1 Look what I'm doing.

Speaker 6 A decorator came by.

Speaker 6 Yeah, she's a friend. You know, Carissa, she's a decorator, and she came by, and she was like, why do you have all the Chris Paul jerseys hanging over the balcony windows? And I was like, well,

Speaker 6 there are two jerseys in each one so the people outside can see it too.

Speaker 1 And then I flip them to avoid sun.

Speaker 1 When Chris Paul decides his new team, Ryan's like the Vatican City. There's the white-pillowed smoke coming out of his house.
It's like, we've made a decision.

Speaker 7 Yeah, there's a flame coming out with just, he ignites C4 energy powder and it comes out of his chimney.

Speaker 1 We've made our decision.

Speaker 1 All right. Well, Ryan, thank you.

Speaker 1 We said we were going to need you for 25 minutes. This only took 40.
That's pretty good for us.

Speaker 6 No, I know. It's mostly.

Speaker 1 I feel like that's really good.

Speaker 6 I was thinking about it. Just be quick with every answer.
Yeah. And I was like, don't do that.

Speaker 1 All right. Thanks, guys.
You're the best. Thank you very much.
Then done.

Speaker 1 Enjoy the draft. I will.

Speaker 3 Paul's here. Kids are back in school.

Speaker 1 Okay, let's wrap up. We got F-A-Qs.

Speaker 1 Henry? Yes. Wait, I actually just got an FAQ on Twitter that I'd like to read real quick.

Speaker 7 I have one too.

Speaker 1 Hey guys, my wife just asked me what the best stiff arm to ever exist is. Any suggestions? I literally just got this tweet.
Shout out, Brian.

Speaker 10 By Marshawn Lynch?

Speaker 1 Right there. I'll reply to him.
Okay. Yeah.
He tweeted at you as well. Okay.

Speaker 1 What's up, guys? Just curious on what your ultimate goal is for each of you. Like, are you going to do this podcast forever? Is Big Hat going to have a big boy job like VP or something? No.

Speaker 1 Is Shifty going to have that kid and live happily ever after? What the fuck are Hank's goals? Just genuinely curious on what the future holds besides Chicago. Love the show.

Speaker 1 Good question.

Speaker 7 That is a very good question.

Speaker 1 I know mine. I'll give a real answer.
Uh-huh.

Speaker 1 I would like to do this show for as long as we are

Speaker 1 still good at it. Okay.
Like I could envision

Speaker 1 in my perfect brain five to seven years from now, we're like, hey, we're really good, but you know,

Speaker 1 maybe we're fading a little, we're getting a little older, and then we walk out on top.

Speaker 7 I want to die on the mic. Okay.

Speaker 7 Go out on my sword as a legend in the middle of a Hitler reference.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Yeah.
There we go. No, I don't.
I would like to do this show for, I mean, like, could you envision us doing this at 50? That's the question.

Speaker 7 I think it would be a little bit sad if we're in our 50s doing this show.

Speaker 1 Like, in my head, I've always thought, like, once we get to like mid-40s, so that's like seven years from now, it would be like a reassessment of like, what should we do? Maybe we just keep doing it.

Speaker 1 Maybe we keep doing it forever. Or

Speaker 1 I'll say this.

Speaker 1 I don't think there will be another show that i ever do like like i would never i'd never be like all right i'm done i'm gonna go make another one yeah you know what i mean it'd be like i'm done but i'm like done working the way we work i think yeah

Speaker 7 like i wouldn't work this these hours this this is probably the last like major full show undertaking that i that i ever want to commit like can you imagine promoting a new show from scratch no that would be very tough yeah i i agree with you pft like the

Speaker 1 it's i want to do it forever but forever is a very long time it is it really is it really is like what the real answer is like whenever pft and hank and i all realize that it's sad that we're still doing this then we'll stop hopefully not too late yeah no it's it's not sad it's definitely like five years and then we're like oh it's definitely going to be a little too late when you decide but not but not too late yeah but i don't want to do there would never be like It would never be like, we're done doing Pardon My Take.

Speaker 1 Oh, I'm going to do this new show that's just like Pardon My Take. Hopefully it gets paid.
No, it would be like, I'm going to do like one podcast a week on someone else's show. Yeah,

Speaker 7 what about you, Hank? You said that you had a definite answer.

Speaker 1 I'm definitely never being a VP of anything. I would like to have enough money that I can live on the beach somewhere and have a Mirachi band on staff that just kind of follows me around

Speaker 1 every day.

Speaker 7 Okay, that sounds like hell.

Speaker 1 Like all day, every day? It is Donza Kaduro on repeat.

Speaker 9 Like Canelo?

Speaker 1 Canelo literally has that. Yeah, I mean, that's always been my goal.
That's my dream. Yeah.
Yeah. It is sad to think about, but I mean, yeah, eventually

Speaker 1 can't live forever.

Speaker 7 Would you have enough money to just play golf every day?

Speaker 1 Obviously.

Speaker 7 Well, yeah, if you have a Mirachi band on staff, a Mirachi band, yeah.

Speaker 1 I think there'll also be a point. Was it Mariachi? Yeah.

Speaker 7 Mirachi. You invented a new genre of music.

Speaker 1 But until it stops being fun, I don't know why we'd ever stop.

Speaker 7 Yeah, we have the best job in the world. I was talking to a family member the other day, and I said, when I was in high school, if I were to describe what my ideal job would be, it would be this job.

Speaker 7 And my guidance counselor would have said, well, that job doesn't exist. Yeah.
And so somehow it does. So I'm not dumb enough to ever let go of it.

Speaker 1 Also, when we stop doing this podcast someday,

Speaker 1 we will definitely wait like five to ten years and then do a reunion tour and make a lot of money. Yeah.
We've talked about that. Last show ever.
That would be fucking sick.

Speaker 7 Do six last shows ever.

Speaker 1 If we're like in our 50s and we're like, pardon my take on tour. Yeah.
That would be awesome.

Speaker 7 Let's debate whether or not Baron Trump is the greatest basketball player of all time after his sixth ring.

Speaker 1 Great pick.

Speaker 1 I said Barron.

Speaker 7 Baron's a Haas.

Speaker 2 Baron is already.

Speaker 1 Baron and Bronny, same team. Yeah.
It would be incredible.

Speaker 7 Mending fences across America.

Speaker 1 Would you cut off your non-dominant... Do you think LeBron James would not allow Bronny to play with Baron?

Speaker 7 I mean, yeah, if he doesn't want him to win any rings.

Speaker 1 Would you cut off your non-dominant hand to guarantee your favorite NFL team wins back-to-back championships? At some point in your life, Hank doesn't count.

Speaker 1 It's hard enough being a Boston sports fan.

Speaker 7 Non-dominant.

Speaker 1 I wouldn't. I don't really have a dominant hand.
I have two dominant hands.

Speaker 7 Even my dominant hand kind of sucks.

Speaker 1 I'd go. I'd definitely cut off a finger.
A hand is a lot. So that's a no.

Speaker 7 I'll give up a nut. That's kind of my dominant hand.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 Well, I guess this is one of those questions that if the Bears continue to suck and I'm like 80, then yeah.

Speaker 1 But

Speaker 1 you got to be like, oh, maybe, maybe they'll win. Yeah, that's KD.
You kind of be like Max. Like, maybe someday they'll win.
Yeah. I would get a hook.

Speaker 7 I would do like the old school pirate hook.

Speaker 1 Oh, I just have a nub.

Speaker 7 Yeah, just and then reach that hand out to shake people's hands and make them be like, what the fuck?

Speaker 1 No, and just feel real self-conscious. I would just go.
I would go around to bars and challenge people to rocks, paper, scissors, shoot, and then shoot my nub and be like, what?

Speaker 2 He always takes rock.

Speaker 1 So, oh.

Speaker 1 What's up, fellas? Wondering who has the highest phone screen time?

Speaker 7 I don't know.

Speaker 1 Don't want to know.

Speaker 1 Mine is seven hours,

Speaker 1 a little over seven hours. I think I'm the lowest.
I looked. It pops up every Sunday.

Speaker 7 I refuse to look.

Speaker 1 How do you look? I will never look. If you go to the far left.
Screen time.

Speaker 1 Seven hours and two minutes.

Speaker 7 Daily average.

Speaker 7 I do not want to know. I don't want to know how often I was refreshing it today.

Speaker 1 You got to look. You got to look.

Speaker 7 Okay. It tells you today.
Where do I go?

Speaker 1 Screen time. Holy shit.
You go setting. What do you got, Billy?

Speaker 1 Five hours.

Speaker 1 That's a lie.

Speaker 1 What? Let's see it. Five hours? Five hours and five minutes.
Okay.

Speaker 7 Turn on screen time. My screen time's not even on.

Speaker 1 Oh.

Speaker 7 Zero hours.

Speaker 1 Oh, Hank's got me beat.

Speaker 1 What is it? Seven hours and 21 minutes.

Speaker 7 What were you doing last night between the hours of midnight and one in your room?

Speaker 9 Do you guys try to find your highest day on there?

Speaker 1 Memes, what's yours? Memes has got to be high. Last week I averaged like over 10.
Oh my god. Jesus.
I'm happy not to be the number one.

Speaker 7 It's funny because I have an Apple watch, so if you counted that in addition to everything, the Apple tricks you, you're just looking at a different screen.

Speaker 1 How do you find highest day?

Speaker 1 Go down and then scroll over. I feel like that's not average.
How many notifications are

Speaker 1 Sunday? We sat in the AC all day.

Speaker 1 Seven hours is tough.

Speaker 9 I average 280 notifications a day.

Speaker 7 It's a lot of notis.

Speaker 10 My Sunday was 9.56.

Speaker 1 Yeah, no,

Speaker 1 my Sunday we sat on my phone for 12 hours. Yeah, that was more

Speaker 7 just re-watching the stiff arm.

Speaker 13 I spend three hours on Twitter a day.

Speaker 1 I don't know how to find the highest day.

Speaker 1 But I'm sure it's probably like an NFL Sunday or college. Well, actually, no, it's probably March Madness.
When we're in the middle of March Madness, I'm probably at like 28 hours in a 24-hour day.

Speaker 7 There's certain things you would just prefer not to know. I don't want to step on a scale.
And I don't want to know what my screen time is.

Speaker 1 Seven hours, I feel like, it's fine. Yeah.
I went with this one.

Speaker 1 Hey, boys, does max take gigantic l's even when he isn't on camera what is the best l you've seen max take that is not recorded for all of us to see it was kind of nice when he finished second in fortnite that was just pure maximum

Speaker 1 he's actually like decently put together except when he wears that shirt that has holes in it looks like he's been eating it he he he wore like he we've been on i feel like we've been on the road for a month but he has six holes with six shirts with holes he gets hungry when he gets hungry his body

Speaker 7 His body just absorbs his shirt.

Speaker 1 I was like, why are you holding all your shirts? And you're like, it's a light shirt. I was like, what does that mean?

Speaker 10 Oh, yeah,

Speaker 10 the shirt that I got.

Speaker 1 The purple one. Stiff armed with was there was lots of holes in it.
I buy cheap shirts.

Speaker 10 I don't spend more than like $15 on t-shirts.

Speaker 7 Okay.

Speaker 1 No, he doesn't.

Speaker 1 He doesn't get holes. He's pretty good.

Speaker 1 Anything else?

Speaker 1 Will, do you have one?

Speaker 1 Come on up. Yeah, Satan the mic.
Our friend Will Levis is here. Nashville resident, Tennessee Titan.
Yeah, you can just... Oh, yeah, yeah, you can come on up.
Don't get hurt. It's good to be here.

Speaker 1 Good to be here.

Speaker 17 In the beautiful bar. Excited for the opening.

Speaker 1 What was your favorite memory from the draft? Ooh.

Speaker 17 Like I was saying, like, there's a lot of stuff that went down that night that, I mean, only me and the closest ones in my family really know about. And it was just a really crazy experience.

Speaker 17 But, I mean, I'm really grateful to be where I am right now, right here in Nashville.

Speaker 1 It's incredible. It's the start of the championship DVD.
Like,

Speaker 1 they're going to do the, like, and, you know, Will Levis, the shot of that, and there's like Super Bowl.

Speaker 7 Boom. You know, who else dropped in the draft? Aaron Rodgers.

Speaker 1 Yes, facts. Tom Breed.

Speaker 17 Yeah, they're going to throw those out every year. You know, when some, when that happens to somebody, Donald Trump.

Speaker 1 It's a Vietnam draft. True.

Speaker 7 How are your bone spurs? Okay.

Speaker 1 They're good. Okay.
All right. What's your FAQ?

Speaker 6 All right.

Speaker 17 Hello, Big Cat, father of three.

Speaker 1 Z, father of one.

Speaker 17 Hank, father of Max.

Speaker 1 Yes.

Speaker 1 Yes. Max and Billy.

Speaker 17 I was thinking, I know you guys don't cut a lot, but were there any things that you guys have had to either ever cut from the show, whether it was just dialogue or whatever, or conversely, are there things that you had to cut that you wish you would have kept in?

Speaker 17 Because in retrospect, it would have been funnier, interesting, whatever.

Speaker 7 On draft night, Hank had some pretty nasty things to say about you.

Speaker 1 No, we don't actually cut a lot. It's like, it's pretty.

Speaker 1 It's pretty few and far between. Maybe every now and then a joke that maybe didn't land.

Speaker 1 Maybe cutting the big guess the other day probably should have done that yeah we did we did do a big yeah we probably should have cut that we alluded to a big guest on monday um because we did have a big guest but that was cut yeah

Speaker 7 which

Speaker 1 parts i wish i left in yeah yeah right so um that was shout out sean evans he's the man that was awesome we probably yeah he was a great interview but we probably should have cut us saying there's a big guest on monday when we thought it was going to be a different guest that we then cut yep And we'll just leave it at that.

Speaker 1 Yeah, we'll drop little hints every now and then.

Speaker 7 It's going to be a funny little trail of breadcrumbs for people to try to figure out who the big interview was. Yeah.
It didn't exactly work out.

Speaker 14 Yeah.

Speaker 1 So there's been three, and pardon my take history. Three interviews that didn't air.

Speaker 7 Dan Bilzerian.

Speaker 1 Yep.

Speaker 7 Mystery guest.

Speaker 7 And

Speaker 1 Big Poppy number two. Big Poppy.
Yeah. Yep.
And Paud Rodriguez. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 2 That was because he didn't speak English.

Speaker 1 He didn't speak English.

Speaker 1 He came on and we were doing it through a translator and we're like, what?

Speaker 1 So, yeah, that was a good question. Great question.
Great question.

Speaker 1 All right. Should we do numbers?

Speaker 1 One vlog. One vlog clip.

Speaker 7 What was that?

Speaker 1 No, I was just kidding. What?

Speaker 1 Oh, yeah. Yeah, there is a vlog clip that we've got.
We'll tell you about it after. Yeah, yeah, we'll tell you about it after.

Speaker 1 All right. We'll do the random number generators.

Speaker 7 This counts.

Speaker 1 This counts.

Speaker 1 Will, why don't you lead us off? Numbers.

Speaker 1 Six. Six men.
Yeah. There we go.
Nice one. I was going to let him have it.
No, no, no, no, no. Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, remind me when you said numbers. No, but you got it.
You got it. You got it.

Speaker 1 He had to go first.

Speaker 9 Look, I know. I know.
I'm going to win without 69, and it's going to feel good.

Speaker 1 Yeah, okay. 91.

Speaker 1 17. 8.

Speaker 9 21.

Speaker 1 17. One dude.
Who got this?

Speaker 1 1. 20.
20?

Speaker 1 Four. Oh, 4.
You guess four sometimes, right, memes? Do you have a number yet, Will?

Speaker 17 No, I don't. Actually,

Speaker 1 can we decide it right now? It should be four. What is it between?

Speaker 17 I mean, I've been riding with I was riding with seven at first because that was my college number.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 17 And there was a brief time period where I wasn't listening to the show as much just because I couldn't because of time. And then I got back into it and I started going with eight.

Speaker 1 So I'm a good number. Okay.
Wait, but he was asking, are you saying like a number?

Speaker 1 No Jersey number. No, I thought you were asking like a number.
I ain't got a lottery ball number. Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah.
Okay. That's really important.
Yes, that

Speaker 17 I'm number eight, though.
