Today is Monday, June 6th,

Speaker 1 and the third Courier Warriors stomped on the Celtics. It is now a 1-1 series.
The Boston Celtics are dead.

Speaker 1 I did like, there was a couple people who were like, you guys said the Warriors were dead. We don't forget that.
It's like,

Speaker 1 have you listened to this show?

Speaker 1 Are you saying that we have knee-jerk reactions that turn out to be very wrong within a matter of days, if not hours? Usually seconds. Couldn't be us.
Yeah, listen,

Speaker 1 this was bound to happen. I felt like this was going to be a correction game for the Warriors because they are just too good of an offensive team to get their shit kicked in.
And Hank, I'm sorry.

Speaker 1 You had a tough day today at the office. You showed up.
You did your job, but you look very unhappy right now. I'm a little bit worried about you.
Yeah. The third

Speaker 1 quarter Warriors. Q3.
That's Q3.

Speaker 1 Q3.

Speaker 1 This has been their MO for almost a decade now. They have been the best team in the third quarter.

Speaker 1 Basically, every single year that these guys have been playing together, they jump on teams coming out of halftime.

Speaker 1 Also, combined with the fact the Celtics have not been good in the third quarter in these playoffs. Or in the past few years.
It is notoriously a bad third quarter team.

Speaker 1 Just a perfect storm for what we witnessed uh a two-point game going into half turned into what was it like a 20-point game going into the fourth quarter 24 24 point game going into the fourth quarter the warriors outscored them uh 35 to 14 plus 21 i think i saw the stat someone someone i think kirk goldsbury our good friend tweeted that was the highest point differential in an nba finals game maybe ever no because the celtics did that actually in fourth quarter so that was the highest I think, Warriors' third quarter differential in a playoff game, which is saying something because that's what they do to everyone.

Speaker 1 I feel like you'll take the split, though, right? You will take a split. It is like Groundhog Day a little bit with this team, where I feel like we did this with in the Bucs series.

Speaker 1 There was a game where they just completely choked because of a terrible third quarter.

Speaker 1 In the Miami series, there was obviously, you know, the quarter, the quarter, the great quarter debate of the Eastern Conference Finals. Great quarter debate, yep.

Speaker 1 Now, wait. And this is just what they do.

Speaker 1 It's unexplainable. They still had sloppy sloppy turnovers and not great play in the first half.

Speaker 1 Can I ask a question? Sure. Dan, big cat.
Yes.

Speaker 1 Now, would you say that that was the Celtics choking, or would I tend to believe in this particular game, the Warriors just playing incredible basketball because

Speaker 1 they had the Celtic.

Speaker 1 Essentially, what happened was what the Celtics did to the Warriors in the fourth quarter in game one, the Warriors returned that to them in game two, in the third quarter, where their defense was incredible and their offense was also like just hitting every shot.

Speaker 1 I don't think that was Celtics choking. I think that was the Warriors just playing great basketball.
It was a little bit. I mean, they got it down to six.
Like,

Speaker 1 it was within six, and all of a sudden, you know, snap of a finger, they won an 11-0, 14-0 run, and it was over.

Speaker 1 I think that the Warriors can make any team look like they're choking because when the Warriors play their best basketball, there's not a team that can beat them. Their ceiling is crazy.

Speaker 1 Their ceiling is insane, and they're unbeatable when they're playing really well. Yeah, so, all right, second question, Hank.
Big cap.

Speaker 1 I was trying to think about this series because that's two games where you watch the first two games, and both teams have a quarter where they look like the other team doesn't even have, they shouldn't even be on the court with them.

Speaker 1 Talking about, obviously, the Celtics' fourth quarter in game one, and the Warriors' third quarter in game two. Now,

Speaker 1 the Warriors did this in game one as well, in the third quarter. The difference being the Celtics were able to make a few plays to keep it within that

Speaker 1 close range where it ended 12 points in the third quarter, right? Tonight, they stepped on their throat. They're like, we're not going to leave any doubt.

Speaker 1 We're not going to let you come back in the fourth quarter.

Speaker 1 Are you walking away from these two games being like the Warriors just didn't step on our throat in game one, and it feels like we're going to be in trouble if this continues like this?

Speaker 1 Or are you saying these two teams are evenly matched and it's okay? We're going to be fine back home. I think these two teams are evenly matched.
We're going to be fine back home.

Speaker 1 I'm still obviously worried. There's always the impending, like, if they, you know, game three is now the biggest game in the series, obviously, but

Speaker 1 I'm just worried about a close game late in the fourth quarter and like a Celtics mistake, a Celtics mishap.

Speaker 1 A, you know, obviously it's a young team, first time in the finals, something happens, they lose the game, and then they lose the momentum of the series.

Speaker 1 Obviously, with them being 1-1, not 2-0, you're now in a much riskier place where it's like every game, the momentum can shift so much, and the Celtics just have to execute.

Speaker 1 If they execute and play their game, they're going to win the series. But I'm just worried.

Speaker 1 It's like they, it feels like they are the better team, similar to honestly, the Heat series, where it's like they're the better team.

Speaker 1 So it almost makes it worse when games are closed and they lose games because you're like, they should have won. Tonight wasn't really like that.

Speaker 1 Tonight wasn't a game where, like, oh, they should have won. Obviously, they were in it.
They were close. They were up.

Speaker 1 But it never felt like a game that they let slip away. See, that's what I'm worried about.
I'm worried about a game that slips away. This next game is a must-win.

Speaker 1 I'm putting a must-win on it for the Celtics.

Speaker 1 More for the Celtics than the Warriors. Oh, yeah, yeah, for sure.
I feel like the Celtics have to win this game. If they lose this game, I think they're done.

Speaker 1 Yeah, and I can't figure out, I just can't figure out this series right now after watching both of the games. Like, I agree with you.

Speaker 1 The Celtics, I think the Celtics cause a lot of problems for the Warriors matchup-wise. Like, they have,

Speaker 1 when their defense is humming, you saw it in game one.

Speaker 1 But part of me also is looking at this and being like, The Warriors could have done this in game one, too, if they had just done that extra like step on their throat.

Speaker 1 Like, remember how the third quarter ended in game one where it was like derrick white had a couple free throws with like no time left dumb foul there was a you know like it was a 16 point game that became a 12 point game and you were able to say like oh the Celtics have a chance here and then they went obviously crazy in the fourth quarter so I just can't figure out if it if tonight was more the norm or if it was you know what I mean because the Warriors did the same thing in game one they just didn't do that extra little piece where they're like no you're really dead yeah you know what I mean I mean it's impos it's impossible to know because it's this series so far has been filled with three insane quarters.

Speaker 1 Yeah, right. It's like even basketball and then quarters where shit just goes haywire.
Yeah, so it's like very hard to tell what's going to happen.

Speaker 1 I do think that the Celtics, I'm not going to actually say they're dead. I think that the Celtics can and should win the next game at home.
I still think it's going to go seven. You know, I agree.

Speaker 1 I think it's going to go to the Distance, but they have to win this next one.

Speaker 1 I did not walk away being like, oh, the Celtics are completely overmatched. I'm just saying simply from like the fact that these games actually were very similar.

Speaker 1 It's just the difference being that the way the Warriors closed out the third quarter in game two left it no doubt and no chance for the Celtics to come back. Yeah, the first time.

Speaker 1 And can they do that again? I don't know. Because that was an insane performance tonight.
The first half was also wild with Draymond. Yeah.
I mean, like... Draymond really went, he went crazy.

Speaker 1 He's insane. Yeah.
He is an insane person.

Speaker 1 He gets out there. He was tackling people.
He was like putting his feet on people's face. I don't know.
Like, he just goes from zero to 100.

Speaker 1 And he's like, he dances that fine line where he gets an early technical, and then he almost challenges the refs to kick him out.

Speaker 1 He's like, I'm going to do everything possible to get kicked out of this game, and I don't think that you're going to do it. Yeah, he had it all.
He was in some skirmishes, he was in the crowd.

Speaker 1 He licked a guy. He was, yeah, he had his feet going everywhere.
I think this is just him promoting his podcast.

Speaker 1 I think when he goes out in the court now, he's doing stuff just so that people be like, wow, I can't wait to hear what Draymond says

Speaker 1 about the time that he gave a wet willie to Jason Tatum. Yeah, it's smart.

Speaker 1 I will let you, Hank, if you would like to complain about the officials. They obviously, it didn't matter because of the difference in the game here, but they were bad in the first half.

Speaker 1 Like that call that Jalen Brown just didn't touch Gary Payton, and I think the rest were just expecting him to touch him, and he just didn't.

Speaker 1 Well, this goes back to Draymond, too, because two days ago, Draymond tweeted out out of nowhere.

Speaker 1 This is his exact tweet, to call Adam Silver the best commissioner of all sports at this point is kind of disrespectful. He's one of the best CEOs of a major corporation in the world.

Speaker 1 Just finished watching his PC. Very, very, very impressive.

Speaker 1 Just give him that wet sock. That Adam Silver wet sock.
That gluck look. There were some bad calls in the first half.
I mean, you can do the ref game in any game.

Speaker 1 It's one of those things where I try and save my refs, you know, NBA-rigged refs fucked up the game for if it's close. Right, right.
You can't, like, this is the same thing.

Speaker 1 Like, I'm not going to sit here and be like, you know, the refs fucked us and we lost the game because of the refs. Right.

Speaker 1 They did fuck us in the first half, and and there were some terrible calls, and clearly they had an agenda. And, you know, Adam Silver saw that tweet and wants the game to go seven games,

Speaker 1 but the game wasn't close, so I'm not going to say that. Right.

Speaker 1 You're going to save you. Yeah, you got to save it for a close game.
I agree with that.

Speaker 1 That's the most powerful excuse that you can drop. The clip was loaded.
Cock that. Yeah, but if it were a close game, there was a lot of evidence on your side for you to be very upset.
Yes.

Speaker 1 But it wasn't, so you can't. Right.
But you could.

Speaker 1 But it was close. But I won't.
But it was rigged, but you're not going to say it. Right.
Agreed. The NBA clearly has an agenda.
Yeah, yeah. Like, fact or fiction, the NBA would

Speaker 1 like this series to go more games than four. Yes.
Yes. Facts.
Yeah, that's right.

Speaker 1 I'm going to say more than five.

Speaker 1 Right, but having the Warriors win tonight guarantees it goes more than four.

Speaker 1 Right, but now we have the reverse, where if the Warriors win game three, they also want this to go the distance the other way. Well, no, I don't know.

Speaker 1 The NBA, like, they're kind of trying to set up this, like, Warriors are the underdogs, you know, mentality. No, everyone hates Boston.
Every commissioner hates Boston.

Speaker 1 It's day one of commissioner school. You get a test.
What's Goodell?

Speaker 1 He's probably in, like, he, he's in, he's in Adam Silver's year. Oh, yeah, he wrote the curriculum.
Yeah, definitely.

Speaker 1 Goodell definitely gave him a call before the series and was like, hey, just so you know. Well, no, when Adam Silver got the job, Goodell was like, hey, I'm really excited for you.

Speaker 1 This is a great opportunity. Make sure to fuck over Massachusetts at every opportunity because we all hate them.

Speaker 1 But you didn't, you're not going to bring any of that up. You're not going to bring any of that up, which is good.

Speaker 1 Are you, where's your nervousness level? Because do you know what I mean about like trying to make trying to figure out this series? Because you can, I think you can, I think,

Speaker 1 depending on who you root for, you can tell yourself that you're in a great spot either way. Like, if you're if you're rooting for the Celtics, you're like, we just stole a game.

Speaker 1 We, our best was incredible. You know,

Speaker 1 we have a deeper team. Like, we can, we can throw a bunch of defensive looks at them.

Speaker 1 And if you're the Warriors, you're like, oh yeah we just we just squandered game one but we got this yeah like you can you can actually walk away and both sides can be right in this that they can say like we feel good the longer the series goes the better off the warriors are they obviously have the experience and they have the rest so

Speaker 1 why is that funny i actually it's just funny i don't know if i agree that's fact you're funny guy you're a funny guy no that's that wasn't a joke i like to tell jokes sometimes and go for laughs that was just that was just straight up analysis i don't know if i agree i think the celtics the way they play defense and the style that they play, the longer it goes,

Speaker 1 the more gas they take out of the opponent. You saw it with Jimmy Butler in game seven.
You saw it with Giannis in game seven.

Speaker 1 They kind of suck the will out of the opponent because they play such tough defense. What about what Richard Jefferson was saying when he came up part of my take last week, and he was saying that

Speaker 1 they have

Speaker 1 like the... Celtics have the advantage in the first couple games from being battle-tested, but then as a series goes on longer, then they start to run out of gas.

Speaker 1 I think you could just make, I think this series is so fascinating because you could basically say anything you want and you could pretty much be right. It's a Rorschach test.
You can take whatever.

Speaker 1 However you're looking at it. You can look at this and be like,

Speaker 1 the Celtics are in a great spot and you can look at it and be like, the Warriors are going to absolutely kill them. You're going to spot and be up 3-1 after two games at home.

Speaker 1 What more could you ask for? And then it's a best of three.

Speaker 1 Yeah. No,

Speaker 1 it's a win in your mind.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Oh, you control your own destiny.
Yeah, you control your own destiny right now. That's huge.

Speaker 1 No, there's two things. Yes, you're right.
This is definitely like

Speaker 1 a plot test. Yeah, where you can take whatever you want.
Everyone just agrees that Draymond is insane and that everyone's out to get Boston.

Speaker 1 And I guess the best way to sum up this series is anyone who has a strong opinion on who is clearly the better team is just lying. They're casual.
They're just wrong. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Because you can't tell after those first two games. It's important.
You cannot tell who the better team is. Thank God we have seven games.
Right, Hank?

Speaker 1 Hank was, Hank,

Speaker 1 he was dead. He was dead.
We went and interviewed Biz during the third quarter. We came back, and he was just laying on the couch, dead.
He's sprawled out. Yeah.
I have shoulder problems.

Speaker 1 You have shoulder problems. What's wrong with your shoulder? I woke up today and my shoulder is like in a lot of pain.
I don't know what I did.

Speaker 1 Carrying this whole company on my back. Yeah, I don't know.
That's true. That's facts.

Speaker 1 You need a personal day. You're like Atlas, the guy that carried the world around.
Next thing you know, we're going to have like an email on Tuesday being like, hey, good news, guys.

Speaker 1 We have a massage deal now.

Speaker 1 Everyone in the company has $100 to a masseuse.

Speaker 1 That's why Atlases are called Atlases. Yeah, yeah.
Because of that guy

Speaker 1 on his shoulders, like you. But like, was he named after

Speaker 1 no, he was the original?

Speaker 1 They named the Atlas after the guy. Yeah.
Wow. Learned something new every day.
He was the original. He's like how Jalen Rose.
There's a bunch of Jalens now.

Speaker 1 He was the original. That's cool.

Speaker 1 Do you think there's any blame for you changing up your look going into game two? No, I'm wearing the exact same thing I wore Monday. I just added an extra layer.

Speaker 1 Okay, so you're not wearing the same thing. No, but I'm physically wearing the same exact thing.
Right, but you added a coat. It was cold.
Okay. No, I'm not playing.
I'm not 155 degrees today.

Speaker 1 I'm just wondering, because obviously game one was a great game. You were on Cloud 9, and then you changed up what you were wearing.

Speaker 1 Well, yeah, but I mean, they also changed up who the referee officially.

Speaker 1 But you're not going to say it's not a problem. Exactly.
Because it was a blowout. Right.

Speaker 1 But, but if it was close, then maybe. From your perspective, how much blame do you put on Hank changing out his outfit?

Speaker 1 I didn't change my outfit. I'm wearing the same exact thing.
I love defensive Hank. I love defense of Hank.
He's the best. This is actually a side note.

Speaker 1 You play better defense than the Celtics did in the third quarter.

Speaker 1 Come on.

Speaker 1 That Larry Bird shirt that was. That he lies in me.

Speaker 1 No, I texted Hank. That Larry Bird shirt that we put out for the promo.
I wore it game one, and we lost. Randomly saw Nick, who works with us, at the bar, PFT.
You were there.

Speaker 1 He was wearing it, and then game six, Hank was wearing it, and I texted him right after and was like, We can't wear that shirt anymore.

Speaker 1 Okay, so I am a big juju guy like that, so I would, I kind of would like to see Hank wear the same exact outfit. Yeah,

Speaker 1 I mean, that's what that's what Streets are saying, Hank.

Speaker 1 No, no, don't worry about me. All right, let's go positives for you, Hank, because Jason Tatum looked better, he looked back, he looked like he, you know, like he actually could shoot.

Speaker 1 That's a positive. Positives are

Speaker 1 we got one in Golden State. We have a chance to be up 3-1 after two games at home.

Speaker 1 Marcus Smart barreling into Robert Williams' knee was not good for my health. See, this series is so fascinating because you can even say the Warriors just won

Speaker 1 by a million and Clay played terrible. Really terrible.
Just like in the first game, you could be like, the Celtics won by a million and Tatum played terrible.

Speaker 1 Jalen Brown played really good in the first half tonight.

Speaker 1 Tatum at least had like, he wasn't, he played terribly offensively, but he had 13 assists. Yeah, no, in game one, yeah, but he couldn't shoot at all.

Speaker 1 But at least Clay was just,

Speaker 1 we knew Clay was bad when he missed that layup, like his second shot of the game. He had no touch.
But I'm just saying

Speaker 1 this is a fascinating series because you can, again, you can spin it, whichever team you're rooting for. You can be like, oh, we did this, but this guy didn't play well.

Speaker 1 And you can keep going down the line. Where are we at on the Warriors fans?

Speaker 1 I'm trying to get a beat on them. They're a slippery bunch.
Yeah. Because I I feel like they fall into one of two buckets.
Either they're like a tech executive

Speaker 1 or they're like a middle schooler that trolls people on Twitter. Yeah,

Speaker 1 here's what I think has been great for the Warriors is the fact that they switched arenas during COVID and when Clay was hurt and when everything happened. That like it kind of went under the radar.

Speaker 1 Because I definitely do not like the Warriors as much as I did when they were in Oakland. Yeah, it's better.

Speaker 1 It was way better when they were in Oakland and having that city have like a competent team. And now it's like San Francisco.

Speaker 1 it feels like now they're the like uh amusement park version of the Warriors right but but it happened in a time when there was no fans in the in the stands so we kind of just didn't like if they had gone seamlessly championship to championship changing arenas I think we would have been able to get our hate up yeah but they they just slipped under the radar and you kind of don't even realize oh yeah they're playing in you know San Francisco now they've completely robbed like the Oakland people and and people who were very who stood behind really bad years of these experiences in the NBA Finals.

Speaker 1 Yeah, it's fucked up. It's fucked up what they did to Oakland.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 1 You will be on the wood, game three. Yes, sir.
So you excited? Double fucking. I mean, this is an all-time moment for you.
Yeah, I can't wait. You're going to wear that same outfit?

Speaker 1 No, TVD. Okay.
Tune in. Tune in to find out.
All right. Oh, nice.

Speaker 1 Tune in to NBA Finals, game three.

Speaker 1 Darren Revelle will do a quick

Speaker 1 calculus of that.

Speaker 1 Hank Lockwood just gave ABC in the NBA Finals $6 worth of advertising. We'll see.
We'll check the ratings and see what the Lockwood bump is.

Speaker 1 Tuning in to see what he's wearing.

Speaker 1 Are you concerned in your ability to double fist pump with your injured shoulder? No, because I wasn't thinking about double fist pumping the first time.

Speaker 1 It was just a perfectly natural reaction that happens to be.

Speaker 1 Maybe you injured your shoulder doing the double fist pump. No, I injured my shoulder sleeping like a normal person.

Speaker 1 Well, clearly you weren't sleeping that normally. Yeah, no, I don't don't know what happened.
Yeah. I actually don't know what happened.
All right. Other things.

Speaker 1 We're going to talk PLL and other stuff. Darts after.
That might have been where I hurt my shoulder. That could have been where you hurt your shoulder.
A dart watching injury. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Yeah. We're trying to think what else we had.
Oh, Lebron. LeBron's doing a podcast.
So LeBron James says he's going to be jumping on someone's podcast soon, maybe his own. Yeah.

Speaker 1 So this is LeBron having like three glasses of red wine and then just like tweeting whatever his feelings are. Yeah.
So he saw somebody that has a podcast. He's like, I want that, but for me.

Speaker 1 Draymond. It's actually.
Yeah, that's exactly. He saw Draymond's and his crew.
Yeah, it's actually incredible that it took him this long for him to be like, I need a podcast.

Speaker 1 Yeah, not for him to actually do a podcast, but for him to say, I'm thinking about doing a podcast. Right, right.
And he also had a great tweet tonight.

Speaker 1 It's so funny to me how many basketball experts there are on this app. Everybody, Dr.
James Naismith, it's fascinating. With one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight

Speaker 1 laughing emojis. Were they crying emojis? Crying, laughing.
Yeah,

Speaker 1 eight for as many times as Steph has been to the finals. That's very funny.
That's a very funny thing for me. Hilarious.

Speaker 1 Listen, if his podcast is half as good as his Twitter game, I think we're all in for a treat. Yeah.
And I think part of my take's in big, big trouble.

Speaker 1 He also only follows 183 people, so I don't know how many experts he's seeing on his timeline. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Somebody, I'll bet you can make an app or a plug-in for Twitter where you're able to see what LeBron James sees when he logs into Twitter.

Speaker 1 And it's definitely not what, like, he's, he's, he's just saying that because other people have said that. Yeah.
Like, everyone's a basketball expert.

Speaker 1 I would, I would actually love, and we have extended an invitation to LeBron James, or as Jake referred to him. This is very funny.
I've never heard anybody say, Mr. James.
Mr. James.

Speaker 1 But Jake said, Mr. James, please come on part of my take.
Maybe that's the key. Yeah, Mr.
James, please come on part of my take. It's an open invitation.
I don't even know how that would go.

Speaker 1 I think it'd be fine. It would be awesome.
It would be awesome, but it also would be like, there would be some awkward moments where we try to make jokes and he's just like, I'm not doing this.

Speaker 1 Hey, LeBron, you remember when you showed your dick to the entire world on national television? This is LeBron James here for me undies.

Speaker 1 Yeah, no,

Speaker 1 it would be interesting. Open invite, though.
Open invite.

Speaker 1 Ever. In a million years.

Speaker 1 He has at least 10 people that would stop it before before it happens. Like there are there are certain guests where people are like Aaron Rodgers or Kevin Durant or like name any guest.

Speaker 1 And I'm like, yeah, there's a chance. LeBron is a 0.0 in my mind.
I doubt it. I agreed.

Speaker 1 The only way we'd ever get him on this show is if he was doing like a press junket and we had 10 minutes with him on a Zoom and it was like, you get three questions.

Speaker 1 I don't think we would say no to that, by the way. We would say no to that interview.
We've said no to those type of interviews where it's like, we won't, people would be mad.

Speaker 1 We would need, if we were to interview LeBron for real, I would need at least four days with him. I would need six bottles of wine.
I think the only way that we could do it.

Speaker 1 Yeah, no, the only way we can pull this off is if we do like a Jim Harbaugh thing where we just show up at his house unannounced.

Speaker 1 We've got the podcasting equipment and we just ring the door until he relents.

Speaker 1 We bring tacos. Yeah.
On a Tuesday? Yeah, tacos on a Tuesday. He probably already hit.

Speaker 1 Maybe the move is to bring him on a different day than a Tuesday because you know he's always got tacos on a Tuesday. He'd be like, hey, I know it's not Tuesday, but you can still eat tacos.

Speaker 1 Yeah, it's a treat.

Speaker 1 This is a special occasion. What's the occasion? You're coming on Carmel.
I think that's a great idea because he was a great interview and he's part of his crew. No.

Speaker 1 Maybe he'd be like, hey, you guys should. If we saw Carmelo on the street right now, you think he'd be like, oh, that was awesome.
You guys were awesome. Maybe.
No. I think he might.
I don't think so.

Speaker 1 I don't think we left a lasting impression. We got to get Bronnie on.
Maybe we get Bronnie first and then he tells his dad. Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah.
That's true.

Speaker 1 Bronnie's friends friends that listen tell Bronnie to tell his dad. Okay.
Shout out Bronny's friends. Yeah.
Bronnie, I see him. He's going to be an NBA superstar.

Speaker 1 I think he's going to be better than his dad. Yeah, we have a draft board, and he's already number one.

Speaker 1 Easily. Why don't we have LeBron on to break down that draft board? I like that.
Yeah. Yeah.
Perfect. Perfect invite.
All right. Let's do who's back.

Speaker 1 And then we will have our good friend, Paul Bissinet, on the show.

Speaker 1 Quite the interview with him. Always a treat.
He's the best. Before we get to.

Speaker 1 Before we do who's back, I forgot. I had one last thing

Speaker 1 on the NBA Finals. I didn't know this, and this is obviously

Speaker 1 hand up. You know, could be just a very small group of psychos on Twitter, but it seems like there might be some group of people that think Steve Kerr is overrated, which is maybe the craziest take.

Speaker 1 That's one of those ones where it's like, we've all just, we've exhausted every avenue of debate that we're now talking about Steve Kerr, who has, I think he has eight rings total

Speaker 1 between coach and player and has basically

Speaker 1 been the coach for one of the best runs a team has had. You can just look at who the coach was before with Mark Jackson.
And then look what Steve. Oh, but that's part of the market.

Speaker 1 Now they're like, well, he's only, Mark Jackson should get more credit. Mark Jackson sits the table.
I do love the fact, though, that Mark Jackson has to do all these Warriors games.

Speaker 1 Like right after he got fired, they went on this insane run, and Mark Jackson just has to watch them win title after title after title. He should take a little bit of credit.

Speaker 1 Like, if I was Mark Jackson, you should be like, yeah, you know what? I laid the groundwork.

Speaker 1 I poured the foundation in the basement of this house that Steve Kerr ended up building and turning into a nice mansion. But yeah, like Steve Kerr is obviously a very good head coach.

Speaker 1 I don't think that's even a debate.

Speaker 1 But

Speaker 1 I think, again, it's probably just we've run out of things to debate. But I just love the fact that people are trying to have this debate and then watch a game like tonight.

Speaker 1 And those same people are probably like third quarter Warriors at it again. It's like, well, what do you you think happened at halftime? Yeah, so there's an adjustment that gets made.

Speaker 1 What do you think happens at halftime for every Warriors game that makes them, they have, I saw the stat. It is legitimately like 2015 through 19 when everyone was healthy.

Speaker 1 And then this year, they are the number one team in third quarter net rating. And that's like six years in a row.

Speaker 1 Obviously, there's been a couple of gaps, but six years where that has happened. And guess who the coach is? Guess who talks to him at halftime?

Speaker 1 And people can make the argument that, you know, Clay and Steph are two of the best shooters of all time, playing on the same shooter. They are.
That's not even argued, which is true.

Speaker 1 But also, a coach's job is to coach players to improve their game. I think, like, obviously, Steph Curry is like a freak.
That's, you know, the most talented shooter of all time.

Speaker 1 But, like, it's good that Steve Kerr hasn't fucked him up. Yeah.
It's good that he's like, he's known how to use him correctly. Correct.
That's still on the coach. And they still got to play defense.

Speaker 1 Yeah. I don't know.
It's just,

Speaker 1 I like those. I like the attempt at the take, I should say, because it is one of those takes where it's like, we are just, we've run out of everything.
Is Towers

Speaker 1 over here?

Speaker 1 What? How many more titles does he have to win? Like a red Arbach?

Speaker 1 It's fucking, man.

Speaker 1 We should just, honestly, when we get to the point where we reach that, like when we get to the wall, we need to just have everyone on Twitter just go into a time machine and be like, let's debate something from like, you know, the 80s or something.

Speaker 1 No, that's a touchgrass moment, big time. Yeah.
All right. Hank, your who's back? My who's back of the week is the internet, internet culture.
Okay.

Speaker 1 Sometimes I feel like I personally am on the internet too much. I get frustrated.
I'm like, I need to, you know, I touch grass. Sometimes we talk about, you know, Twitter.

Speaker 1 Yeah, you need to take more vacation stuff on this show. But then there's times like this story where it's like, the internet is hilarious.
This is very funny. It's real life

Speaker 1 consequences that have resulted from the internet. So, and I don't know if you guys, Morbius.

Speaker 1 No.

Speaker 1 Okay. so it was a movie, Jared Leto movie that came out in April.
Superhero movie. Like, I think he's a character from Spider-Man or something, but they did a spin-off.
Bombed. 17% Raw and Tomatoes.

Speaker 1 Terrible movie. Like, didn't do good at the, didn't do that good at the box office.
Like, high budget, you know. Yeah, I've never even heard of it.
Yeah. Didn't do well.

Speaker 1 I pulled a 180 on Jared Leto recently. I used to hate him and think he was annoying.
Now he's awesome when he plays annoying characters. So yeah, yeah, he's kind of weirdo.
I think he's a weirdo. But

Speaker 1 this person, Rada, this was the original tweet that started the meme and it blew it up.

Speaker 1 But she tweeted on April 2nd, the best part of Morbius was when he said, it's Morbin time and morbed all over those guys, which is just obviously making fun of the movie, like joking around.

Speaker 1 That turned into a huge meme where everyone was just doing, it's Morbin time, it's Morbin time, just turning everything into, you know, bringing it back to Morb and Morbing.

Speaker 1 So much so that Sony saw all of the tweets and like saw that it was always because it was like Twitter.

Speaker 1 So everything that was Morbin related would have like 100K favorites, like a shit ton of retweets. It was going viral every single day for the last, you know, month, two months.

Speaker 1 Like it's been, it's been an internet thing where it's constantly been growing and growing, although now it's kind of dead. But right.

Speaker 1 At the tail end of it, Sony saw all these viral tweets and was like, we need to bring Morbius back into theaters. Like there's a starving movie.

Speaker 1 Yes, like, there's, there's people that want this movie re-released. Like, look at all these tweets.
It's viral. Everyone wants, everyone's talking about it.

Speaker 1 So they re-released it this weekend and it bombed.

Speaker 1 Like,

Speaker 1 less than a hundred, listen, less than a hundred thousand dollars made in every movie theater, like nationwide.

Speaker 1 Like, it said something like it was, it was an average of eight dollars per theater that showed it is how much money they made. That's crazy.
This is so great.

Speaker 1 So the internet basically like memed the, you know, Sony, the big production studio into re-releasing this movie so it's bombed twice.

Speaker 1 Didn't the internet do that? Just off of memes. With the Sonic the Hedgehog thing? Yeah.

Speaker 1 They buoyed them into changing the CGI. Yeah, they changed it.
Which was for the better. They put out the picture of Sonic and everyone was like, this Sonic sucks.

Speaker 1 And then they went back and spent like another $100 million

Speaker 1 redoing the fur on Sonic the Hedgehog. This is so awesome for so many reasons.
Like the fact that... One, anyone takes the internet for real is hilarious.

Speaker 1 The fact that they were able to meme this into like bringing it back when it just sucked objectively.

Speaker 1 Now, the only thing, though, Hank, do you feel a little sympathy for these executives at Sony who got duped by the internet? Because

Speaker 1 that could be you someday. Yeah, it could be, but that's kind of like, you know, maybe that'll be my sign to just talk myself out back.

Speaker 1 I would just love to see those executives walk into their office Monday morning and just be like, so give us the good news.

Speaker 1 I want to hear the rest of this metaphor Hank you're treating yourself like you're old yellering yourself yeah yeah I mean that is I I agree with you there like there will be a day when I'm gonna wake up and everything will pass me by and be like I'm out I'm gone

Speaker 1 but I would like to yeah I mean I would like to think that it's just funny that probably someone at some level was like hey executives look at all these tweets like look at all these viral memes they're all talking about morbius and and morbin like it's morbin time guys because it was like every single day they'd be like it's morbin time and it was just like classic meme shit where it was like they were turning everything into somehow into Morbius and like

Speaker 1 stupid funny joke online and and and people were like all right we need to re-release this and nationwide and everything now we kind of and maybe and maybe I want to get my morb on eight dollars reminder yeah morb out is is like that's one ticket all right so we'll do a we'll do a morbius uh review oh no after the nba finals yeah you know we have to now all right we have to go watch it all of us yeah movies are back yeah we have to go well i'm sure we'll be be able to watch it online.

Speaker 1 Yeah, but we got to watch it together. Are there any showings that are available? We'll just do a showing in the gambling cave.
Let's just steal some popcorn. Let's illegally download.
And we'll morb.

Speaker 1 We'll morb the fuck out of this podcast. And then hopefully we bring it back for another one.

Speaker 1 All right, PFT, your who's back?

Speaker 1 My who's back of the week is Max Homa. Ah, that was mine.
All the homosexuals out there, it is Pride Month. Max put up an amazing stat.

Speaker 1 At the memorial tournament. I feel like there are like nine memorial tournaments that are played every year.
Am I way off on that? It's always talking about the memorial. This one is a pretty big one.

Speaker 1 This is, I think, the sixth major. This is the one in Dublin, Ohio.
There's a lot of things to remember. That's true.

Speaker 1 Good point. Harambe.
So

Speaker 1 don't even go with it with Harambe. We can't talk about Harambe right now.

Speaker 1 Max Homa required 99 putts.

Speaker 1 Yeah, that's true. We're definitely going to get a Harambe movie at some point.
Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
How funny? That's actually a great idea. Holy fuck, man.

Speaker 1 Mark Wahlberg's going to sneak in in and stop it from happening. Yeah, Mark Wahlberg should be the father of the child.

Speaker 1 We should do a Harambe movie, but make it super dark. But also on the side of Harambe.
So the kid that gets saved

Speaker 1 with

Speaker 1 his ancestors. Yeah, the kid that gets saved, then it does something horrific.
That's Baby Hitler. We saved Baby Hitler to kill Harambe.

Speaker 1 That would be wow.

Speaker 1 Harambe goes... Wow.

Speaker 1 We could have ended it all. Jeez.
Holy fuck. I mean, that's box office gold right now.
Yeah, that. I mean, that's, I'd watch that movie tomorrow.
And also, there's a morb involved.

Speaker 1 Yeah, Mike Francisclip has to be in there, too. Yeah, a gorilla.

Speaker 1 We're talking about a gorilla. Mark Wahlberg.
What if Mark Wahlberg played Harambe? Ooh, he works out enough. Yeah.
I've read his Wikipedia page. There's some of that in his past.

Speaker 1 Why does that go viral, by the way? Oh, Jesus. Why does that go viral all the way? Like, every two weeks, Mark Wahlberg's daily schedule goes viral.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 Because he tries to say he plays golf in 45 minutes.

Speaker 1 He wakes up at 4 a.m. How about you just, I don't know, you could wake up at 6 a.m.
and do the same shit. Well, you know who could have played golf in 45 minutes this weekend was Max Homa.
Yes.

Speaker 1 Because he required only 99 putts. He's the first player in tournament history to record fewer than 100 putts since records have even been kept.
He's good. Max is legitimately good at golf.

Speaker 1 He's legitimately good. It's crazy to say.
Kind of ruins the joke. He's probably he's got to be like top 10, top 20 favorites to win the U.S.
Open. No, he's, yeah, he's,

Speaker 1 I think he's top 10 in the fedex cup which who knows what that means that's crazy she's rich as yeah he is very rich very rich man he needs to start but he's still need to start wetting the beak he's still getting kept in check though because the the

Speaker 1 live and get everyone he should off of his goal

Speaker 1 turn he should join the live and be like we should be we should talk him into joining the live and then be like don't worry we'll handle all your pr

Speaker 1 and then when he joins the live we're just like fuck this guy i did like what greg norman said He was like, listen, nobody's perfect. You know, like, I'm not, I can't criticize everyone.

Speaker 1 We've all got our skeleton. He was talking about them like luring the journalist into an embassy and then cutting his body up with a bone saw.

Speaker 1 I don't, he's like, listen, got to do what's best for him and his family.

Speaker 1 Mistakes were made. I don't know why they all don't just do the Phil Mickelson and be like, dude, I have gambling debts.
I need to do this.

Speaker 1 Like, Dustin Johnson, I don't know why he's on there, but he's playing. Yeah.
Because he's paying them like $150 million.

Speaker 1 Right. Yeah.

Speaker 1 So the PGA Tour Communications official account tweeted that stat out, but they're keeping Max's ego in check. They called him Maxahoma.
Ah, nice. Which is a great perverted name for him.
Yes.

Speaker 1 Yeah, that was my who's back, too. I love that he's back.
Although he's never left. He's just fucking good now.
Also, my who's back is our good friend Brooks Kepka, who got married this weekend.

Speaker 1 He's so back. Yeah.
And I looked at the Instagram stories and it looked like maybe the most fun wedding of all time. Ludacris did a concert.
Yeah. I'm not upset that I didn't get invited.

Speaker 1 He had Ludacris perform at his wedding. That's incredible.
It also,

Speaker 1 there was a couple people like, you guys didn't get to invite. First of all, no, because we wouldn't.

Speaker 1 But second of all, if you saw any of the Instagram stories and pictures, it was just all beautiful people. Like, just beautiful people on a beach.

Speaker 1 And I just envisioned us being there and being like, we would just be

Speaker 1 a wet fart just standing there. Like, all the pictures would be ruined by our existence.
I feel like. There's obviously always a cut list for weddings.

Speaker 1 We weren't considered

Speaker 1 20? No, we weren't considered. 50? No.
No, we were the amateur that shows up and hits like plus 12 on the first day. And you're like, whoa, that's not good.
It was like

Speaker 1 if we had shown up at this wedding, even if we were invited, we would have set one foot inside and security would have just instinctually kicked us out. Yeah, no, it really would have.

Speaker 1 We would have been uncomfortable. That's how pretty everyone looked.
We did not fit in. I feel like everybody at the wedding

Speaker 1 would just... Did fit in.
They would just leave and all text each other and be like, hey, let's go to a different spot. Yeah, this place

Speaker 1 sucks now.

Speaker 1 Dude, this place is fucking lame.

Speaker 1 Okay, Jake, your who's back. My who's back is the king of clay.
Rafa Nandal did it again. Oh, who cares? I know you don't want to do it.
Well, it's talk about it, so we'll move on.

Speaker 1 No, it's Mickey Mouse to have to only win on one surface. Well, I think he also won the Australian, right? So he now has a two-major lead, 22.
14 of his 22 are at Roland Garrow.

Speaker 1 That's bullshit. Still eight other majors.
Yeah, but 14, 14. I don't know.
Novak has nine of his 20 at Austin Open. There's got to be more than three good tennis players.

Speaker 1 Why is he so good on Clay? He just got the

Speaker 1 top spin

Speaker 1 changes differently. I won my club championship on Clay, so I could

Speaker 1 you take him on Clay? Not one point. Not one point? Maybe if you double-faulted.
What surface would you be most likely to take a point off Rafa on?

Speaker 1 Not Clay. Yeah.
I've never played grass before, so by default it has to be hard. Okay.
Yeah. You do like it hard.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 Never won a club championship on hard, though. Got cut from the high school tennis team on hard.
Oh, so that's your. So when you say your weakest surface.
Would you have gotten cut on clay?

Speaker 1 Michael Jordan got cut from his basketball team. Yeah, that's true.
Good point.

Speaker 5 That's right.

Speaker 1 So you're clay first. Yeah.
Yeah. That's when you really

Speaker 1 you dominate on clay. Yeah, good for Rafa.
You sprained your ankle on hard, too.

Speaker 1 Didn't Rafa have like a sprained sprained ankle or something? I think he got hurt. Her foot in the foot injury.
He added that on. Yeah.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 All-time funny protester, too. Did you guys see that? No, what happened? She attached herself to the net.
Like with handguns.

Speaker 1 Yeah, and actually, like, a pretty good protest because she had a shirt on that was like 10,000, it was like 1,028 days to live.

Speaker 1 It's a countdown. It was a climate change.
But like, it actually made me pause and I was like, wait, is that true? What happens in four years?

Speaker 1 Well, I initially, I looked at it and I was like, wait, is that so only four more Super Bowls? If the fucking world ends before Dan Snyder sells a team,

Speaker 1 I'm going to take myself off battle. Could you imagine, though?

Speaker 1 Could you imagine, though, PFT, like putting it into a perspective that we understand four more Super Bowls? Yeah,

Speaker 1 that's terrible. I like that.
That's such a terrible, terrible thing to say. Especially when you root for shitty teams and you know that you're more than four years away.

Speaker 1 Could you imagine if that's how everyone decided to get climate change like enacted or whatever laws enacted in America, they're like, hey, you have three more Super Bowls. That's not nearly enough.

Speaker 1 That's actually how you talk to the people. Don't tell me about polar ice caps.
Don't tell me about sea raising. Tell me how many Sundays I have left.

Speaker 1 And then I will cry. Yeah.
That's a good point.

Speaker 1 Okay, let's get to Biz. Great interview with him before we do that.

Speaker 6 Hey, this is Rhea from Chicks in the Office. And this season, we're heading home for the holidays with Abercrombie and Fitch.
We all know our calendars are about to get chaotic.

Speaker 6 For non-stop plans, Abercrombie has the pieces to curate your perfect seasonal wardrobe, sweaters and denim for casual plans, party dresses for nights out, and comfy matching sets for everything in between.

Speaker 6 Keep the chaos cute this season in Abercrombie. Shop their new holiday outfits in the app online or in stores.

Speaker 1 All right, we now welcome on our very, very good friend and the man who has your hockey bitch.

Speaker 1 I'm your hockey bitch. You want hockey talk? talk? No, listen.
I was going to give you. Yeah, you want that hockey talk, baby.

Speaker 1 I was going to give you a beautiful intro of the man who captured the hearts and minds of two nations on Saturday night during the Edmonton Oilers Colorado Avalanche game.

Speaker 1 It is our good friend Paul Bissinet, who looks absolutely hilarious. If you missed it, he has - you should watch it on YouTube, but he has a shaved top of his head.
He looks like George Costanza.

Speaker 1 I mean, how are you doing, dude? Like, this has been a wild 24 hours.

Speaker 5 Peter Mansbridge.

Speaker 1 Peter Mansbridge.

Speaker 5 A famous,

Speaker 5 he was a news anchor, and he just delivered the news old school, like the guy, the man.

Speaker 5 And so we were doing this silly commercial for McDonald's, and we thought of this character named

Speaker 5 Peter Mansbiz.

Speaker 5 And then we did Kyle Dubez, the GM for the Toronto Maple Leafs, but it was to pay homage to him. So we ended up working in this silly marketing piece.
And then I'm like, I bet wit.

Speaker 5 I think it was in fucking like, what, November? And the Edmonton Oilers were playing like dog shit. They had no goaltending.
They were out of a playoff position. And he was fucking talking them up.

Speaker 5 And I said, fucking Battle of Alberta. I said, I'll fucking bet you this that I'll do this on national television if the Calgary Flames don't move past the Edmonton Oilers.

Speaker 5 They fucking, by they got, they had better goaltending. They had a better overall team defense.

Speaker 5 They had just as good as a top line based on the entire season. And I thought their depth was better.

Speaker 5 And fucking, they got worked in that series, which, hey, you followed it all, but every game was chaos. And it was like a fucking bad acid trip and it was over.
It was like, you felt dirty about it.

Speaker 5 You know, it was like going to Vegas.

Speaker 1 So now here you are.

Speaker 1 The fucking hooker stole my Rolex. Let's just cut our losses and get out of here.
That's what you look like. I really you didn't take my passport.
Yeah, I think you actually look good.

Speaker 1 It just struck me,

Speaker 1 you've got like a Tobias from Arrested Development thing going on. Yeah.
You look like the anal repist. Yeah.

Speaker 5 I don't know. I don't watch a lot of television, man.
You're dropping a lot of things.

Speaker 1 It's an old show.

Speaker 1 It is spot on. Wait, I have a question, though.
So before we talk hockey, you did this

Speaker 1 last night during the game. Now, then you sit next to the greatest hockey player of all time and Wayne Gretzky.

Speaker 1 Man, what did he say after? Like, was everyone at TNT like, what are we doing? What, why, how did this, how did we get roped into this?

Speaker 5 No, they were so cool about it. They've been so TNT's been so cool about all of it.
And so is Wayne. And

Speaker 5 as much as Wayne is like, what the hell is going on?

Speaker 5 But he's the fucking best guy ever. Like today, he brought us over to the junior game, the Oil Kings.

Speaker 5 So, like, obviously, Wayne, come on to the podcast. Let me grab a sip of water here.

Speaker 1 I'm buckled. Okay.

Speaker 1 By the way,

Speaker 1 while you take another sip and I'll just give a compliment because TNT is like just blows away everyone's coverage in NBA and NHL because they have obviously Chuck and Kenny and everyone.

Speaker 1 And then you on the other side, like you guys crush it.

Speaker 5 Chuck paved the way for all of it. all of it what what what tnt is willing to put up with and like just like let this fucking guy be an idiot right right right and like but like

Speaker 5 so chuck came on our first broadcast to start out the season. And like, he, I felt like he took so much levity off of all of it that it set us up for success.

Speaker 5 So not only did he pave the way in his own right, he was willing to snap around hockey, but he also loves hockey. And buddy, he fucking hammers games.
Like, it's fucking. So we're there.

Speaker 5 Sometimes we cross over, right? And he'll be in there. He's like, who are you guys liking tonight?

Speaker 5 And he barks it at. And we're like, ah, and he's like, this is who I got money on.
And he's dropping, you know,

Speaker 5 whatever.

Speaker 1 Big reasonable to, yeah,

Speaker 1 responsible. Yeah.

Speaker 5 Yes.

Speaker 5 But yeah, I don't know how I, but anyway, so he set the way.

Speaker 1 No, you're talking about Wayne Gretzky taking you to the oil can.

Speaker 1 Oil can.

Speaker 5 And

Speaker 5 so I wake up this morning and listen, we had a fun night last night. We went and celebrated because that whole head shave and the fact that TNT allowed it, we're just so grateful.

Speaker 5 And, you know, we're snapping around between chicklets and them and they're being so cool about it.

Speaker 5 So I wake up and I kind of wanted one of those days where like I didn't have to turn it on at all. But Wayne, I get a text from Wayne.
Let me read it.

Speaker 1 That's exactly what I wanted out of you. I have him.

Speaker 5 I have him as my in my phone as 99. He goes,

Speaker 5 he's even nice to say it like this. He goes, hey, bud, I don't want to bother you.
Are you still good to go to the junior game to read the starting lineup for the kids?

Speaker 5 The coach is pretty excited that you would do it, but they haven't told the kids. So I get this text and I'm like fucking doing the contrast shower, like going through my head.

Speaker 5 I got to make this kind of special, figuring out like, how am I going to make this cool for the kids? But then I find out as we're getting into it, and the kids don't know.

Speaker 5 So Wayne was going to go in before the game. He gave a quick speech and then said, I got a guy to read the starting lineup.
So they do this like

Speaker 5 so. I go in there and listen, I'm usually not pretty good at these things, but they brought the TNT camera on and they fucking filmed it.
And it was fucking sick.

Speaker 5 And then they ended up going out there and winning 5-4. It was a sick game.
But Wayne teed the whole thing up because he just cares so much about junior hockey in Canada.

Speaker 5 And the fact that, like, I couldn't, I couldn't let him down. So they're actually going to air it.
When are you guys dropping this podcast?

Speaker 1 Tomorrow, Monday morning.

Speaker 5 You're not going to see the footage until the broadcast, but Wayne teed the whole thing up.

Speaker 5 That's from the minute we landed on a PJ that he set up from fucking Colorado to Edmonton so we can get in nice and safe. We fucking were drinking on the plane.

Speaker 5 It was one of the nicest private planes I'd ever seen, right? But all he kept talking about as soon as we landed was like, we got to go to the game Friday and Sunday.

Speaker 1 The oil kings are playing.

Speaker 5 This man loves hockey more than anything. All he wants to do is hang around with the boys and watch hockey.

Speaker 1 So wait, did you?

Speaker 1 Unbelievable. Did you have to keep it like PG? Because you were talking to kids? Because I don't think I've ever heard you say more than three sentences.
No word of a lie.

Speaker 5 So my wheels are spinning because I'm like, I can't let Wayne down, right? Because he's going to be teeing the boys up and I got to fucking nail this. And I'm nervous as shit.

Speaker 5 And one of the coaches comes in beforehand and he goes, hey, because Wayne was already waiting out there. He says, hey, just to remind you, like, let's keep it PG, like no F-bombs.

Speaker 5 That's such a Wayne move to fight, you know, no swearing for the kids, you know, such a great guy move. So I did end up keeping it PG.
So it's funny that you ended up mentioning that.

Speaker 5 Wayne got ahead of that. He's

Speaker 5 Wayne in life and in hockey was two steps ahead of everybody. Everybody at all times.

Speaker 1 He anticipated you going out there and dropping like a cocksuckers on the yeah, right. Yeah, like, hey, hey, any of you kids eaten hoop before?

Speaker 1 I mean, you would have said that. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Is Jake the snake there? Yeah, Jake's right here. He's listening.

Speaker 5 Hey, hey, did he not just get announced for the PLL or something?

Speaker 1 Yes. Yes.
What's up, man? Oh, my boy, Jake.

Speaker 1 Hey,

Speaker 5 don't forget where you got your start was at the Pink Whitney Cup that earlier threw on for all the ladies. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Me and Neil. We'll never forget that.
Check it out on YouTube. The hoop eaters.

Speaker 1 Of course. The butthole boys.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 The leather cheeriole boys. Leather Cheerios.
How many different things?

Speaker 1 Jake. The fart suckers.
He's starting to get red in the face.

Speaker 1 How many different words do you know for butthole? It's like DiEskimos and they have like 20 words for snow.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 1 I don't know.

Speaker 1 Goodbye and hello. Yeah.

Speaker 5 I had this good buddy from back home and like Trent Richardson. God rest his soul.
But like we used to.

Speaker 1 He's not dead. He's alive.

Speaker 5 No, no, he passed away. He passed away.

Speaker 1 Trent Richardson did? Oh, your friend Trent Richardson. Yes.

Speaker 1 Okay,

Speaker 1 we thought you were talking about the football punch. No, no, no, no.

Speaker 5 But just going back to your comment about how many names you know for asshole or sucking a fart out of one. Yeah.

Speaker 1 And like, I don't know.

Speaker 5 I was, I was going to strip clubs at like 16 years old. Like, you know, I was just like, we grew up different back home in Welland, Ontario.
That's how we

Speaker 5 found our fun.

Speaker 1 So I also,

Speaker 5 I played junior hockey. So I know a lot of terms for,

Speaker 1 you know.

Speaker 5 The reason I brought him up is because we fucking, he, his father owned a dealership.

Speaker 5 We would be taking like his father's escalades from the dealership up to like Toronto to like go to these strip clubs and like get tunie slides and shit.

Speaker 5 16 years old, bud.

Speaker 1 16.

Speaker 5 Like when were you in a strip club for the first time, big cat?

Speaker 1 Probably 18. Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah.

Speaker 5 We were tapped, man. We were from Welland, man.

Speaker 1 We were a different breed. We're some veterans.

Speaker 5 But I know a lot of terms from Arsenal.

Speaker 1 It's so much funnier that you're saying this and then you lean in with that fucking haircut and it's just like, it takes it to the next level.

Speaker 5 So one of the TNT executives, Bill Galvin, he's a beauty. We have so many cool people.
And we were in this oil king's box.

Speaker 5 And I don't know if he was trying to tell me or recommending like, hey, maybe we kind of like shave it all off for the final, you know, make, it could be the last broadcast because they might get swept.

Speaker 5 And

Speaker 5 I don't, I'm like, I kind of have to honor this bet of keeping this like Peter Mansbiz character for at least a week.

Speaker 5 So I, you know, I had to, I had to let him down softly that this is going to continue. So game four, Monday, I will have the Peter Mansbiz still.
Yeah.

Speaker 5 So I got to, right now the the hair is growing in a little bit on the top, but I'll have to get that cleaned up.

Speaker 1 You have a very flat head, too. It was striking when he was shaving your head.
I was like, he just, it's just a square unit up there.

Speaker 5 Wit went to town on my scalp, and I don't think he knows how to shave a head or he was trying to hurt me on purpose. But I was trying to remain calm and work the mic.

Speaker 5 But as he was stripping it back, he was taking skin out. And finally, I was like, oh, I'm like, come on here.
So I was trying to keep it together for Witt. And hey, he was obviously electric on there.

Speaker 5 And Grinnelli, R.A.,

Speaker 5 Sean were good at capturing the whole thing. And the Edmonton Oilers.
So the Edmonton Oilers are like the Green Bay Packers of the NHL.

Speaker 5 Their fan base is rapid.

Speaker 5 This is as hockey as it gets. And as soon as we landed here with Wayne, he was like, buddy, he's like, this is, wait till you see this.
Yeah. He goes, these people are incredible.
This is the best.

Speaker 5 and and you know he's got obviously a massive soft spot for this place and what it did for for him overall but he loves edmonton and it was really cool to be able to not only do the chicklets thing but experience it from wayne's perspective and like it's like rolling around with the fucking prime minister i would imagine it's crazy is he it's got to be crazy is he always wearing the sweater vest or the cardigan underneath hey you got to admit for for how like i how old's wayne gretzky i don't even know how 60s yeah i would i was gonna say yeah like 62 or something.

Speaker 5 He fucking dresses pretty good. He's still wearing nice clothes.
He's got the fucking, you know, he looks good.

Speaker 1 Yeah. All right.
Yeah. So let's talk a little hockey.
Is this series over? By the way, wait, before you answer this, let's just clarify. Biz has been wrong about every prediction, period.

Speaker 5 I've been wrong about a lot of he cannot get anything right.

Speaker 1 So whatever he says, bet the opposite. So is this series over?

Speaker 5 Yeah, I would say that Colorado is going to easily advance.

Speaker 1 Okay, so Edmonton and seven.

Speaker 1 Bet it now.

Speaker 5 If, hey, if that happened, wait till you, we'd, hey, okay, if that happens, make me a bet. I'll do a belly button shot out of you.
Keep the fucking Linton there for as long as you want, but then you,

Speaker 5 the part that your podcast has to come to Edmonton for the finals.

Speaker 1 Okay, yeah, deal, deal. Easy.
I like that. Easy.
If we come, no, if we come to Edmonton for the finals, you have to do the shot.

Speaker 5 I'll do the shot out of your belly button button in Edmonton.

Speaker 1 Yes, yes, for the finals.

Speaker 5 For a game at one of these, wherever the hopping bars are. Obviously, the JW Marriott, they got connected to the rink.
It looks like a goddamn spaceship. It's awesome.

Speaker 5 We should stay here and we'll do it on their goddamn granite bar tops.

Speaker 1 Say no more. If they win in seven.

Speaker 5 But

Speaker 5 so big component to last game was.

Speaker 5 Dreiseidel, who is a German player. He's one of the best players in the world.
I would say easily top five year over year the last three years.

Speaker 5 He's a horse. He, I believe, suffered a very significant ankle sprain in,

Speaker 5 I think it was in round one, game seven against the LA Kings.

Speaker 5 And he was laboring it in the second round, but still ended up having this insane series against Calgary where he put up, I believe, 17 points in five games, like tied Oilers' records with like Gretzky and the great ones.

Speaker 5 And like, you know, him and Connor really elevated the team through that situation. Um,

Speaker 5 he ended up getting reverse hit last game, and you could tell it re-aggravated it. He's hobbling around out there, man.
Like, he's a warrior.

Speaker 5 It's but it's like hard to watch because hockey players, dude, it's like you'd have to amputate their leg before you told them not to play. And it's like, it's him.

Speaker 5 So they are basically kind of without him and also now Kane because Kane just got a one-game suspension, but

Speaker 5 he got that cross-chesting cadre in the back cadre's out for the series cadre is a massive piece for the avalanche huge like he's

Speaker 5 you told us that before the playoffs started too he's he he buddy he gets under people's skin he wins face-offs he makes plays he makes big plays you can't intimidate him he's a fucking he's a street thug man he's a he's any any fucking team in the league should try to find this guy in free agency this summer so and

Speaker 5 he's now out for the series. So,

Speaker 5 I think they're going to, Colorado is going to advance, but it's such a significant piece to move because I don't believe that any of the teams that Colorado is going to face moving forward,

Speaker 5 they have better goaltending.

Speaker 5 You're either getting Shosturkin or you're getting Vasilevsky, and you don't have that goaltending, whether it's Kemper or whether it's Francois, but they're competent goaltenders.

Speaker 5 So, having that extra piece is valuable as far as the offense and just his overall 200-foot game.

Speaker 5 He's like a world-class midfielder in soccer terms. He just directs traffic.
He can kill. He does it all.

Speaker 1 He's a great analogy to a sports. I don't know if I fucking...

Speaker 1 I mean, get the thought. He's like, no, you know what?

Speaker 5 He's like, I just gave this guy the biggest hand job.

Speaker 1 Pardon my question.

Speaker 1 He's like a free safety that does it all. That's everywhere.
Does it all. Everywhere on the field.

Speaker 1 Yeah. He does it all.
Where do we stand on the sussy for Kane? Was that dirty hit? Did he break it?

Speaker 5 So my opinion, and listen, it's such a weird play in hockey. So

Speaker 5 you can't touch the guy in the back there because he's so vulnerable. His, his, his toes are towards the wall.

Speaker 5 So any type of push or anything in his hip area can throw him off just enough rut boom into the wall. It's, I bet you there's a term in NASCAR for it.

Speaker 5 Like Denny Hemlet would have an example of it for NASCAR where you fucking and you're susceptible to like major injury, like you saw. Um,

Speaker 5 Kane even said in his post-game press conference, he's like, oh i'm expecting maybe a reverse hit so

Speaker 5 that's the thing about cadre he like makes you constantly be on your toes and like you just never know what he's going to do in order to roast you but that's not exception for like you just can't hit a guy right yeah yeah he's so vulnerable and he nudges him off and and it's it's even the anything with a guy going face first into the boards is scary

Speaker 5 the slightest of nudges can throw you off in that situation so you just can't do it and some guys when they're going in they want that little advantage on the puck battle and it's a bad habit.

Speaker 5 And look at the consequence. My opinion on is because that

Speaker 5 cadre is out the rest of the series, Kane should be out the rest of the series.

Speaker 5 You can't do that. One game, sure.

Speaker 5 If the old school mentality, I'm okay with one game.

Speaker 5 I would have said two would have been fair because all of a sudden, man, if you get him back, game, what? It would be game five. Right.
If you pull off a win,

Speaker 5 you got no cadre and Kane's back and he's fucking rested. It's like fucking such a swing on

Speaker 5 a play that was like, it was a dirty play, whether it was by accident or not.

Speaker 1 On the other side, one of my favorite kind of ongoing sagas has been you versus the city of New York and how much you hate Rangers fans.

Speaker 1 I think you might hate them as much as Memes does, which is saying something because Memes is basically like the biggest Tampa Bay Lightning fan in the world right now.

Speaker 1 But you've been like publicly going at Rangers fans. Where did that all start?

Speaker 5 It all started on the, so one of the last broadcasts in the year, like obviously every fan base thinks it's, I think, the local network covering their team when we're on the major broadcasts.

Speaker 5 And like, if I'm going to get involved to it emotionally, I'm going to fucking pick sides. I'm going to be opinionated on shit.
Like, I don't fucking care, right? I have the teams I like.

Speaker 5 I have the teams I don't like, but I also have to give a credible opinion.

Speaker 5 So in one of the final games of the year, Rangers fans were losing it because I was like, Yes, this team has had success all year, but fuck do they give up a lot of high danger scoring chances and rely on their goaltending.

Speaker 5 I think that they're going to get worked in playoffs like this is a this is a major problem playing track meet type of hockey and opening yourself up you're going to

Speaker 5 you're playing against teams who have better shooting percentages and better execution better execution on the power play like you just can't rely on your goaltender all year long so they were coming at me so i was like

Speaker 5 are these guys sensitive so i kind of that's where it all started and then in the first round they're playing the pittsburgh penguins fuck i love sid And I'm like, fuck the Rangers.

Speaker 5 I'm like, they're going to get their power play is not going to work. Their fucking goaltending is going to get lit up.

Speaker 5 And believe me when I say they got so lucky that Jarry got hurt and they had to play a three third string goalie.

Speaker 1 They got fueled the fire.

Speaker 5 They got worked in every game. And I watched the games, right? So then the analytics community comes out afterward and says, this is how much they dominated percentage-wise.
Well, guess what?

Speaker 5 It backed up everything that I fucking saw. They worked them.

Speaker 5 they generated way more high scoring uh high scoring uh chances than new york and shosturkian wasn't that good but the only way they were able to survive was because they got their third string goalie in pittsburgh doolin got hurt and then truba

Speaker 5 i still listen i'm not going to be biased about all this I said it shouldn't have been a suspension, but he knocked out Crosby with the fucking chicken wing up.

Speaker 1 Yeah, he wingboned him. Yeah.

Speaker 5 He wingboned him, got away with it.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 5 So it fucking, they shouldn't have advanced past the first round. They got fucking worked.

Speaker 1 This is great. I called them Gazi.
You're getting it even more.

Speaker 1 And now they're up 2-1 in the East. I called them.

Speaker 5 And then I said, Carolina's going to fucking bend them over. And I'm jumping on the Carolina Hurricanes bandwagon because I fucking hate these fucking fans because

Speaker 5 they come at you online like rapid fucking

Speaker 5 like Yankees fans. The worst.

Speaker 1 They're the worst.

Speaker 5 Memes is nodding furiously right now in the corner so i so i backed so i tried to back carolina but like towards the end of the series i'm like fuck man new york they they've gotten better defensively they're giving up less high danger scoring chances shusturkins found his game more than he did in the first round and now i'm like oh my god this team is like a team of destiny they actually have a chance to win the cup yeah like they do i feel like they and and and and and i'm and i'm so invested into it where if they do go to the finals and they are we're rolling an msg and i'm wearing a avalanche jersey if they get passed yeah i'll i'll get in the freestyle battle with bobby schmerter on the on the catwalk

Speaker 5 do you think i'm all in on on whoever beats this team out i hate i i do not want the rangers to win and the worst the worst part about it is they are like they're ahead of their years like you thought this year if you know if you got to round two and lost it was like hey we we have a good core group they're young they're going to to be successful for years to come.

Speaker 5 If they win at one, they might get fucking two in this next stretch and they're going to be fucking bending me over no spit, no loop, sandpaper finish. And I still fucking hate their fan base.

Speaker 5 And then we got Avery on the mix here.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 5 Zarensky having a chirp me. And fuck, come on.
Glenny Balls.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Avery is a legit son of a motherfucker.
Glenn hasn't been rude to us. Avery's like a little.

Speaker 1 I mean, it's one thing that he cares about in life more than anything else.

Speaker 1 If you're Henrik London, Wait, what kind of dog was that? Is it Chihuahua? Right, right, right, right, right, wait. Hey,

Speaker 5 so this was supposed to be a WIP podcast.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 5 And he got caught up in customs. So if you guys are like, oh, this is a little bit too banged up, he showed up like R.A.

Speaker 5 It was because I wasn't expecting this and I was at the oil.

Speaker 1 No, you know, you did. This is the best.
This brain fucking Gretzky, bitch.

Speaker 1 You're talking to the kids again on our show now. What were you going to say, PFT, about hybrid?

Speaker 1 I was going to say, like, if you're Lundquist, like, do you think, you think he's rooting for the Rangers?

Speaker 1 Or do you think that there's a small part of him that's like, this would kind of suck if they won after I left?

Speaker 5 No, no, I think that, I think that Henrik's very grateful for what the organization provided. Like, I mean, look at the career he had.
Like, he got his jersey retired.

Speaker 5 That's freaking, man, that's big shit. Like, that's, you know, MSG, the most famous sports venue in the world.

Speaker 5 And you have Rangers fans coming to like kiss your feet and say thank you for everything you've done.

Speaker 5 If they just ran into a couple years when he was at his prime in playoffs where he just didn't really get the goal support his his numbers back it up um i think that uh i think that he would love to see the rangers win it and yes

Speaker 5 he he would not say one critical word about the rangers oh no broadcast and i and i love that i'm like i love that loyalty that he has and and oh my god is he ever handsome eh yeah

Speaker 5 those blue eyes oh my god i i i thought i i was joking at the end of the broadcast i said oh like shortage in AA batteries now across America after this one.

Speaker 5 Like every every hockey fan wife slipped off to the room with the fucking with the rabbit to watch that end of the show.

Speaker 5 One hour of just close-ups of Hank, just jamming their box.

Speaker 5 He is a fucking missile.

Speaker 1 Here he is. A very good-looking men rocket.
Very good-looking.

Speaker 5 You're just like, holy shit, man. Like, fucking, how long does that take to make that all work, buddy?

Speaker 1 The suits, the fucking hair. The hair.
The hair.

Speaker 5 It's like, holy, what's your regimen? Yeah. He should do like a, he should do a mat.
Speaking of masterclasses, he should do a masterclass on how to be a man rocket.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Then I would watch that and get like no, no tips that I could use for myself.
Because like you could do it all, and then you'd look in the mirror and you're like, wait, I'm not him. No, no, no.

Speaker 1 I thought you looked good on Thursday, though.

Speaker 1 You were in the perfect like scruff zone with your beard that you had grown out. And then next time I see you on TV, you're getting Brazilian wax on your forehead.

Speaker 5 I just, buddy, it's, I just, with all the travel and just like trying to like getting enough free time and get to smoke my weed and be a degenerate like I actually am, it's hard to like keep it all together sometimes.

Speaker 1 No, you're doing a great job. You're doing a great job.
You're doing a great job. All right.
So

Speaker 1 it's exhausting.

Speaker 1 I got one last question for you, Biz. It's the robot.

Speaker 1 Roback question. Well, we could talk forever.
It's robot question.

Speaker 1 R-H-O-B-A-C-K.com. Use code TAKE for 20% off your first purchase.

Speaker 1 Q-zips, hoodies, polos, everything. Roeback has it.

Speaker 1 Roback.com, use code TAKE for 20% off your first purchase.

Speaker 1 All right, so what do you want to do?

Speaker 5 Can I shout out the whole TNT crew, like Liam, Liam McHugh?

Speaker 1 Yeah, everybody.

Speaker 5 He drives the bus.

Speaker 1 Wait, no, that was my question.

Speaker 1 Who would you like to shout out?

Speaker 5 So Liam McHugh drives the bus, right?

Speaker 1 Okay. Why are you laughing? Because I was just bringing the questions.

Speaker 5 you're so good you you got you got gretzky runoff where you're seeing the questions before they happen i was literally gonna say hey can you please shout out the tnt crew leadership matters liam mccugh drives a bus insane motor like he reads off the prompter like a champ like juggles it all like you know on the fly um gibby's our producer and him and liam work extremely well together and then ace uh anson carter he came over from nbc so he really helped with the broadcasting side and extend uh you know um understanding like you know time and uh delivering on clips and speaking over clips and uh you know tackling social issues all of it all of it you know he's been a beast rick talkett who is a former coach um

Speaker 5 leader nhl record leader in uh gordie how hat tricks which is a fight a fight, a goal, and an assist.

Speaker 5 Like people, he was a Broad Street bully, played in Philadelphia, won a cup as a player with Pittsburgh, won two as a coach and as an assistant with Pittsburgh. And he's coach, been a head coach.

Speaker 5 So he brings that coaching perspective. And then obviously Wayne and then a couple of people like Hank and Jen Botterill have filled in in the meantime, but even everyone

Speaker 5 behind the scenes, like TNT, they make it so easy travel-wise. They're fucking, they understand how it all works.

Speaker 5 And as I mentioned earlier, the NBA, they, they set the standard and it's been a fucking whirlwind. And I'm so happy happy to be a part of it all.

Speaker 1 I'm so grateful.

Speaker 5 Wayne's a fucking man, dude.

Speaker 1 Oh, oh, Koharski.

Speaker 5 So we have this old school official that comes on the broadcast sometimes. And

Speaker 5 fuck, he's gotten quite a few wrong

Speaker 5 during all of it.

Speaker 1 So we don't,

Speaker 5 they started calling him the mush on the broadcast and Wayne's chirping them, but fuck, well, you know, you know,

Speaker 5 we had such a fun crew. It's been a blast.
So I just wanted to make sure I gave all them love because they really helped

Speaker 5 the awesome week in Edmonton work.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 5 And so did the Oilers, man. They gave us like full access.
Like the fuck, it was a shit show, buddy.

Speaker 1 We felt like we were royalty. I like how you're becoming Charles Oakley.
Like you're becoming like Michael Jordan and Charles Oakley are like best friends.

Speaker 1 And that's your relationship with Wayne Gretzky now.

Speaker 1 I'm sure like if Wayne needs to collect a debt from somebody, if somebody owes Wayne like $90,000, he'll probably tap you on the shoulder and be like, hey, pay this guy a visit.

Speaker 1 Yeah, take care of this for me. This is why you're around.
This is why you fly on the muscle. You're the muscle.
Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 1 It is great.

Speaker 1 I didn't know this was part of the job. Wait, so who's your, who do you have winning the whole thing at this point? Again, you've been wrong on everything.

Speaker 1 Not to, I mean, you have been wrong on everything.

Speaker 5 I think Colorado takes it.

Speaker 1 So

Speaker 1 the premier southern organization lifting the cup. Colorado takes it.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 So, but Rangers Avalanche?

Speaker 1 I can't stop the championship. No, no.
That's a tricky one.

Speaker 5 No, because because I don't know if you guys watched the Tampa game tonight.

Speaker 5 Their backs were against the wall and they worked them. They outshot them.
It was kind of like how I chirped them against Pittsburgh.

Speaker 1 They got outworked.

Speaker 5 They got out chanced.

Speaker 1 But they almost won. The Rangers almost won.
Yeah.

Speaker 5 Because of goaltending. So it's an uphill battle because they're dealing with a guy that they kind of like a guy that they have.

Speaker 5 But you just can't write off the champs. They got the next game at home.
If they win the next game at home, it's 2-2. And then they got to just go win one on the road.

Speaker 5 And they've done that before. Can't write them off.
So I don't know yet. I think the Colorado Rangers would be an incredible final.
Two new teams, two young up-and-coming teams.

Speaker 5 You got Adam Fox, who is a very, very, very skilled defenseman.

Speaker 5 Then you have Makar.

Speaker 5 And I like talking about the hockey guys, like the real good ones.

Speaker 5 when I come on here, because like you guys have more of a sports demographic.

Speaker 5 He is the greatest defenseman we've seen since Paul Coffey. He's probably as good as Paul Coffey.

Speaker 5 If he keeps going on this trajectory, easily right, maybe right below Bobby Orr, could eventually become like a Bobby Orr type. He is a freak.
He's a Connor McDavid of defense.

Speaker 5 It's just like, he's just so fucking good. He's so well conditioned.
He always makes the right play. He's sick on offense.

Speaker 5 He's basically a forward, but he never gets caught up the ice. He is fucking incredible.
So

Speaker 5 him going going against Adam Fox, all the skill like Paneran and stuff from New York going against the McKinnons and

Speaker 5 the Landiskogs and the Borakovskys and the Rantnans, everybody from the other side. It will be a very heavy-hitting final.

Speaker 5 Colorado, a young up-and-coming fan base that has been rejuvenated since the Sakic years with the scumbags. of the hockey world, the New York New Year fans.

Speaker 1 If I could have summarized that maybe perfectly. The perfect ending.
Yes. I love it.

Speaker 1 Thank you, Biz. It's good to see your face.
Yeah, you're the best.

Speaker 1 I like the ending.

Speaker 5 I rambled on a lot. I was a little bit cocktailed during this one, but hey.
No,

Speaker 1 this is perfect.

Speaker 1 We love whenever you're on, and now we have something to root for.

Speaker 1 Edmonton to win in seven so that we'll be in Edmonton for the Stanley Cup final.

Speaker 5 You'll get fucking hounded here, buddy.

Speaker 1 Yeah, and you'll be doing belly shots off me.

Speaker 5 I'll be doing more than that when we come back.

Speaker 1 I'm not going to shower for a week. It's a big fucking belly bottom.
Yeah, there's going to be a whole

Speaker 1 bunch of shit.

Speaker 5 I'll let you shave my asshole live on TV if they fucking win in seven, buddy.

Speaker 1 And shout out. You should wet everything.
Take all your hairs off if they lose in seven. Yeah.

Speaker 5 So shout out to a lot of shutouts.

Speaker 1 What's up, guys? It's Big Cat here making my Irish entrance with proper number 12 Irish whiskey. How do you make an Irish entrance, you ask?

Speaker 1 It starts with a shot of proper number 12 Irish whiskey because real friends don't let friends Irish exit a party without a story to tell.

Speaker 1 Original proper number 12 is rich in a smooth blend of golden grain and single malt. Age four years in bourbon barrels.
Mix it up with some ginger ale for a classic and refreshing proper ginger.

Speaker 1 In the mood for something smooth but a little sweeter, try proper Irish apple, a delicious blend of proper's award-winning Irish whiskey with crisp, fresh notes of apple.

Speaker 1 So get out there and make your Irish entrance. Anything else just wouldn't be proper.

Speaker 5 Now you got me stumped.

Speaker 1 But everybody who came to Edmonton and made it work. Yeah, no, no.
Is there anyone on the Chicklets crew that you want to shout out? Yeah.

Speaker 5 Well, I said Grinnelli, Sean Apuzzo,

Speaker 5 Chicklett's memes, Witt, R.R.A.

Speaker 1 What about Merles?

Speaker 5 Oh, Merles.

Speaker 1 You haven't said Merle's name once. He's my guy.

Speaker 5 I almost forgot. That's why we need you here, buddy.

Speaker 1 I got you.

Speaker 5 You guys stumped me. Maybe I would have fucking said Merles if you didn't stop me dead in my tracks.

Speaker 1 Bitch.

Speaker 1 Well, you didn't say him the first time. So everybody rides.
Merle. Yes.

Speaker 5 Merles is the man. We play with him.

Speaker 5 He's a degenerate.

Speaker 1 No, I mean, I never thought that I would be in a spot where I'm betting fucking like Swedish and German and Russian hockey at like seven in the morning on a February like Tuesday.

Speaker 1 But then Merle's came into my life and here we are. Everybody rides.
Yeah, exactly. Yeah.
All right. Well, you're the best, Biz.
We love you. And hopefully.
I love you guys.

Speaker 1 I'm rooting for the Rangers now because I want to see you.

Speaker 5 I'm coming there regardless. Okay, so so all you sporting fans, NHL is gonna

Speaker 1 fuck you, big cat. All you sporting fans,

Speaker 1 can you give us an analogy about sporting fans? Because you did soccer and NASCAR, two sports that cover a lot.

Speaker 5 No, I'm saying a lot of people. I know it's going to be summertime and you're probably like, oh my God, hockey's still going on.

Speaker 5 Regardless of the situations with the two series and the conference finals,

Speaker 5 the NHL is going to wait till June 18th to start the finals till the NBA is over. So it'll be the last sport like playing.

Speaker 5 So fucking jump on a bandwagon, watch an incredible sport, especially if it's fucking Colorado or New York. It's going to be a good time.
And by then, Golden State and Boston Celtics is over.

Speaker 5 So let's keep fucking sportsing and follow the finals. I love it.

Speaker 1 And we'll be doing live streams.

Speaker 5 Buddy, we're going to be in NYC

Speaker 5 June 19th, 20th, 21st. We're going to get a sandbag ring.
We'll collab with you guys. We're coming there regardless.
All right.

Speaker 5 So, if New York makes it, and so does Colorado, game three is, I believe, on the 21st or maybe the 22nd.

Speaker 1 I'm born on MSA.

Speaker 5 I'm going to be front, nose, and center with these fucking degenerate scumbags, the New York Ranger fans.

Speaker 1 Oh, my God. That three that Jordan Poole just hit.
That was crazy. All right.
All right.

Speaker 1 Samp is just love you, man.

Speaker 1 Alright, whose line is it anyway, real quick?

Speaker 1 Game three. Boston, one and a half.

Speaker 1 I already know. Oh.

Speaker 1 Celtics are minus three and a half. Minus three and a half.
And we were right about the series. The Warriors are now favorites on the series minus 115.
The Celtics are minus 106.

Speaker 1 So basically a coin flip. Yep.
So even Vegas doesn't know. Yep, yep.

Speaker 1 Yeah. They're telling you they don't fucking know.
Vegas zone.

Speaker 1 Okay, let's finish up the show. We got a couple things I want to address.
PLL,

Speaker 1 Water Dogs fucking suck. That team is a disgrace.
Came out of the gate slow, as expected.

Speaker 1 Yeah, and we heard all week that the Canons were, we were hearing from camp, and I'd like to hear your take on it, Jake, that the Canons were the worst team.

Speaker 1 And nope, quick reminder water dogs are the worst team yeah when you think it can't go any lower wait till you see the water dogs yeah and they didn't post the score for like an hour that's their cowards now at what point do we have to start looking at a coaching change here because this is two years in a row that we've gotten off to a slow start I'm certainly not going to take any blame for it Copeland Copeland there we go I knew that yeah but they won the regular season last year oh president yeah put up the banner great good job AFC finalist I think we got to get Drew Snyder out of retirement I think so when I say coaching change I mean mean just like wear a different shirt.

Speaker 1 Our coach needs to change his outfit, actually. Like the old Gary Patterson.
Change colors at halftime. Do something different.
Jake, how was your time at POL?

Speaker 1 As we saw, you shot one shot for your entire life on the cross. First.
And you scored on Billy.

Speaker 1 I did. Wow.
You put a top cheddar on him. So much so that Billy's not here to defend himself because he's so embarrassed.
He skipped tonight. What are you going to do? Yeah.

Speaker 1 And if I know Billy, he is currently stewing over this. He's going to come be like, actually, I was able to stop all the other shots.
And it was just this one. It was a lucky shot.

Speaker 1 Actually, the coach low-key said that I could have gone pro.

Speaker 1 I'm interested to know, like, how he walked onto that warm-up field being like, I have that. Right.
He belongs here. Right.
Yeah. Of course he did.
The one on PMTV.

Speaker 1 You're pretending like that's news to us? No, he actually said that. Yeah, no, I know.
I'm sure. I could have hit that hole.
If it wasn't for the equipment changes, like

Speaker 1 the equipment changes, I could low-key hang with these guys.

Speaker 1 Could he hang with them? High or low-key? No.

Speaker 1 Well, you'll find out on PMTV, but it was some cool drills. He did a face-off with Trevor Baptiste, who's like the GOAT at face-offs.
Yeah. So that'll be pretty cool.
Okay.

Speaker 1 We had Justin Gutterding, who's an AWL. Love it.

Speaker 1 Yeah, are there other guys? Are the Water Dogs? Do they know that we trash them? So, you know what's funny?

Speaker 1 We saw pretty much a member of every single team, except we didn't see one water dog the whole time.

Speaker 1 I don't know if it was just a casual conflict. No, they know.
They know. Yeah.
They didn't want any piece of Jake the Alpha. Yeah, they didn't want it.

Speaker 1 Listen, we told you,

Speaker 1 we sent you to Albany with one mission. It was to find the Water Dogs and berate them.
The Nazi one Water Dog the whole weekend. Interesting.
Cowards. Unless they weren't wearing gear.
Actually, I

Speaker 1 was not wearing gear. I do want to say that

Speaker 1 if you told me, like, personally, which guy, like, if you're like, hey, it's this guy's a nice guy. I probably like all the water dogs personally, but as a collection, they are a terrible team.

Speaker 1 They are. That's just objectively true.
Factor fiction.

Speaker 1 Are they worse right now? Right now, they are tied in last with the score differential with Redwoods, who also lost by six. So they're terrible.
And really, we lost by more. It was that was a pity.

Speaker 1 Score differential matters at the end. Okay.
Well, that one dude hit, he like shot the ball between his legs. That was kind of sick.
Yeah. But you can't.

Speaker 1 That's a Mickey Mouse play when you're losing at the end of the game. He was patting his stats on that, just trying to make Sportsner top 10.
Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 1 So next up in Charlotte, week two, they are playing Whipsnakes on Saturday night.

Speaker 1 Two-time championships. Yeah,

Speaker 1 what's the line? Whose line is it anyway?

Speaker 1 Whipsnakes Minus.

Speaker 1 He may not be on yet. He probably took it off the board.
Whipsnakes, game of the year. That's the game I called last year, and the Water Dogs won.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 1 Who cares? Okay. But it was a fun time.
Yeah, it was a good time. Shout out, PLL.
Shout out, Paul Abel, RJ. They hook it up.
And

Speaker 1 when are you calling the games? I don't know if I'm allowed to say that yet. Okay, but sooner rather than later.
Say it. We'll bleep it out.

Speaker 1 Don't say it, Jake. This is a trick.
No, I might be allowed, but I'll play it safe. It's soon.
All right, great. It's time to start thinking about prepping.

Speaker 1 It's time to start thinking about your wardrobe. What are you going to wear? Are you going to wear the same blue suit?

Speaker 1 And let me just say this.

Speaker 1 You know, we've had our history, but the ESPN Plus app much better than the app that was previously hosted, the Water Dogs. Like, I watched the Water Dogs today, and it was seamless.
Yes.

Speaker 1 It was very, very, it was a,

Speaker 1 it was as good of an experience as you can have watching the team that you own suck a tremendous amount of dick. That's fair.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 But yeah, shout out to PL and ESPN for making that happen. How good is memes at lacrosse? You'll have to find out.
It's a PM TV vlog. It's a good teaser.
Beautiful, beautiful teas.

Speaker 1 Wednesday. All right, and then the other sport we've got to talk about, darts.

Speaker 1 It might be ahead of lacrosse as a sport of the future. It takes, let me just set the scene real quick because PFT was in Nashville.
I was with my family, who I love, but. Your father?

Speaker 1 I'm a father, but I love. This is a pretty big butt.
But

Speaker 1 it takes a lot for me to get FOMO at this point because I'd rather just be on my couch. Seeing the lads, I think you guys were technically lads on Saturday.

Speaker 1 There was like 30 dudes from Barstool that went to the darts. 50.
50. All dressed up.
Absolute scenes. Just scenes.
I was so jealous.

Speaker 1 I almost got off my couch and was like, if I just show up, will they let me in?

Speaker 1 They probably would have, and i probably should have i'll set the scene liam can fill in there because he was he was there as well as pretty much like every every producer and video editor like behind the scenes guy at barstool this event was supposed to happen in 2020 but it got canceled like right in the beginning of covet it was supposed to be like april or whatever of that first march um and then during covet i actually watched it was the pdc so it's like the top players in the world i watched a lot of their broadcasts during covet because they were the first sport that was like back they didn't have crowds obviously but there was broadcast going on so i kind of got into it i i understood the rules 501 regular darts

Speaker 1 for whatever reason this kid greer is the one that bought the tickets kind of set it all up he decided that he bought 50 tickets no people just venmoed him he bought 54 54 he would have had to cut somebody for an nfl football team yeah he decided that instead of sending people tickets like because it was too difficult because people would have to sign up for a ticket master account which i assume a lot of people already have one.

Speaker 1 Like, I just have one already. Like, game time, though.
He said, right.

Speaker 1 He said that he's not going to do that. I guess it was probably out of loyalty for game time.

Speaker 1 And so we went in with 54 dudes. Together.
Together. Only one.

Speaker 1 All shit-faced at this point. Like, everyone had been drinking for a few hours already.

Speaker 1 And I was saying when we're at the thing, because he's just sitting there with the usher, just going flick, flick, flick, flick, flick. Everyone's chanting, drunk, going crazy.

Speaker 1 And I was like, I don't think there's any event that's happened that this usher usher has seen 54 people come in at one time.

Speaker 1 Like, no one would do it for a sporting event, no, no one would do it for a concert. No, like, there's no reason to go in with 54 people, so it was

Speaker 1 a rowdy, raucous scene going in there. And then, honestly, the actual event exceeded my expectations.
Like, it was a

Speaker 1 great time, it was a good viewing experience. Who won? People were dressed up.

Speaker 1 Michael Smith won. He beat Van Gerwin, who was the GOAT.
That's who I had.

Speaker 1 Everyone's dressed up. Everyone's just drunk, chanting.
USA chants. Michael Van Gerwen chants.
Obviously, if you get three, you know, if you get three triple 20s, it's 180.

Speaker 1 That's the highest score you can get. And when that happens, people just go nuts.
It's 180. I'm very, very jealous.
I love darts. I absolutely love it.
I can't wait to go. I should have told you.

Speaker 1 We have to go to one in England or Ireland because as good as it was, the crowd was great. It was an awesome atmosphere, but I just can't imagine being in one of these.

Speaker 1 If one of the guys that was in the championship was a USA guy that, or a New York guy that everyone was rooting for, like, right, being in one of these guys's home, you know, home courts or whatever

Speaker 1 for a big darts match would be just absolutely unbelievable. So, I was following along on your Instagram stories, and like you said, it was basically everyone who worked as a producer here.

Speaker 1 So, like, it was, I was watching everyone's stories, and it was like everyone was standing next to each other, but I was still was watching every story because I couldn't get enough of it.

Speaker 1 My only question is, was there a little bit of a lull when 54 dudes walked in all shit-faced and the event hadn't started yet?

Speaker 1 Well, yeah, because we had to go early because they're like, well, we only have one fucking person with the time.

Speaker 1 I noticed it in the, like, it's so sad that I was sitting on my couch watching this, but I noticed how amped you guys were chanting, going in, and then everyone's stories.

Speaker 1 The next picture was an empty arena. It being like, go time.

Speaker 1 But, like, you could feel that it was, like, not go time.

Speaker 1 We also, like, like, none of us really really know what's going on and so we're just doing the most generic chants of all time where we're just chanting like we want darts. Yeah.

Speaker 1 When the guy like comes out and is like doing the intro for it, whatever, we're just chanting like we want darts or like darts, darts, darts, whatever it was. And

Speaker 1 another takeaway I have is like I know how the scoring works too. I don't know how they do the math so fast.
Yes.

Speaker 1 Like that's something that I would think where it's like, obviously I know where it's like the triple 20 is what like when it starts at 501, it's like you want to get the most amount of points.

Speaker 1 So, like, people have a big 180 signs where it's like that's the goal that you're going for. But once it gets down to it, like, I don't know how they know what they're aiming for.

Speaker 1 Yeah, where they can do the math so fast.

Speaker 1 The last shot, the winning shot, it was like he had like 82 and he hit it, like he did it in three shots where it was like boom, boom, boom, exactly what he needed.

Speaker 1 I was like, how do you just shot a second? Yeah, but like, I don't know how you know, like, what's the easiest way to go about

Speaker 1 those numbers? I know they've probably done it so much. They have a small number.
Like, they know if they have a 138, they know what they need to get. If it's a 137, they know what they need to get.

Speaker 1 They know every single combination. It's kind of like us when we're watching football.
Yeah. And we know, okay, try to get the over.
Yeah, well, you can still get three touchdowns and a safety.

Speaker 1 Yeah, right, right. Like a field goal doesn't kill us here.
That kind of shit. One guy was saying, I was with the guy, Rudy, and he was like, oh, this isn't even that impressive.

Speaker 1 Like, blah, blah, blah. I was like, do you understand how hard and how good the hand-eye coordination these guys are? It's unbelievable.
It's darts. I mean, I like darts.

Speaker 1 I've played played darts many times. It's a game of 501 takes like 30 minutes.
And he played

Speaker 1 on a double or triple.

Speaker 1 What are they playing in? It's just double or bullseye. No, it's double or.
It's triple? Yeah. Oh, maybe it's just double.
Yeah. I think it's just double or bullseye.

Speaker 1 Because we were supposed to do it in the triple-Stack study during COVID, and no one was good enough here. So we pulled it.

Speaker 1 How long would each game take? 10 minutes. Yeah.
Not even. Yeah.
And depending on darts of 50 minutes. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Like the triple 20s that they're hitting too, they're like almost hitting the exact same dart. Right.

Speaker 1 Where it is, where it's like they are right in the middle of that tiny thing where they're like on top of each other, where they're like that precise. If you're new to darts

Speaker 1 and you're listening to this and you haven't, you have no darts experiences, YouTube nine darters. Just YouTube PDC nine darter.
It's one of the most, we didn't, we got close.

Speaker 1 We got three six darters. And it's like that.
I can't even imagine. It's literally on the bucket list.
Like I have to see a nine darter live. Watch them on YouTube.
I've seen them all.

Speaker 1 They're just some of the best, most like raw sports crowd moment videos.

Speaker 1 It was clear.

Speaker 1 They got six and it was like, oh, my God, here we go. Here we go.
We might get a nine-darter. And then, you know, they missed it, but it would have been, the roof would have blown off.

Speaker 1 And it's also one of those sports that's great because the guys who are playing it are not like they're fat guys. Yeah, they're big dudes.
Yeah, I want to

Speaker 1 have the revolution.

Speaker 1 Yeah, yeah, they haven't started to work out yet. Everyone starts looking at Tiger Woods and you're like, fuck.
Yeah, now I got to hit the weight room, too.

Speaker 1 Although I feel like if you get really strong, that would negatively impact you, right? Yeah, but you know that there's too much of it you can pull. You know that

Speaker 1 one guy who wins darts is like, yeah, it's all because I've been doing Pilates and like band workouts. Meditation.
Yeah, and it's going to suck. I've learned everything.

Speaker 1 The trick to darts more so than any other sport.

Speaker 1 Old guys, like Van Gerwin's been doing it for 20 years. The guys that can figure out like exactly what your blood alcohol content has to be to optimize your steady nerves.
I would imagine like

Speaker 1 a 0.79 would make me at my peak physical pick.

Speaker 1 Like right

Speaker 1 below the legal limit. That's what I'm saying.
Yeah. I feel like

Speaker 1 a 0.799. You'd be close to death.
Oh,

Speaker 1 yeah. Maybe you pussies.

Speaker 1 No, but yeah, like a 0.079, that's a perfect amount to be. I also want to know more about these dart players.
Like I want to, I want to find a darter. Or is that what do you call them? A darter.

Speaker 1 A darter.

Speaker 1 I want to find who who the bad boy is I want to like root for a certain athlete that's what we I wanted to do that I told our crew and they said it was Van Gerbin where I was like if there's 50 of us drunk I want to root for the bad boy so like we can kind of get in some like some scuffles with people yeah there was a guy that was facing off against a USA guy but he was Scottish but he wore all-American flag outfit and had a red white and blue mohawk so he was he was leaning into it because I was a little bit confused because he was getting booed everyone was chanting USA and I was like isn't this our guy and they're like no he's he's Scottish like the other guy's American

Speaker 1 Damn

Speaker 1 like I said it takes a lot for me to get FOMO I had severe FOMO on Saturday it would be a great bachelor party event like obviously you'd probably have to like they'd have to come back to the US or whatever unless you really wanted to to do the whole European bachelor party but it would it's it's just a great like dude's rock to scream yeah and you guys 180 happens to go watch everyone everyone gets dressed up there was a lot of good outfits a lot of AWLs out there, too.

Speaker 1 Shout out to everyone. Yeah, you guys all had shirts.
I had dart stuff on. One shirt said funny.
Like, I'm sexy and I throw it. Yeah.
It's a lot of dart puns. Yeah.
I like those a lot.

Speaker 1 We should do a grit week Liverpool and go to a darts competition. Darts.
And see Patty the Batty. Yep.
All right. So what is darts? So that it? It was just this event in America?

Speaker 1 They're not going anywhere else? I don't think so. Fuck.
All right, so we should start our own darts league. We can actually do that.
Oh, yeah, that's right. We did.
It was a disaster.

Speaker 1 We tried to move. Well, no, with actual darters.
Yeah, no, we tried to do it for stool streams. We moved the distance up a foot and a half, and people still couldn't even,

Speaker 1 like, they were aiming for 20 and getting fives. Yeah, yeah.
Like, it wasn't even, it was just, you know, hope and a prayer. With the real darters, though, we should do it.
Yeah. It would be fun.

Speaker 1 Because I bet you we could find, there's probably some like insane dart players, untapped resources. Like, you go to a fucking, you know,

Speaker 1 like a hole-in-the-wall bar in the Midwest. Guys are playing darts all day.
I feel like Wisconsin is ground zero for our nation's best darters. Yes, absolutely.
Brian Fitzin and Steve, big dark guys.

Speaker 1 He's got his own deck. He's got like $200 dart set.
Love that. He's ready to roll.
Love that. Love that.
All right. Good show.

Speaker 1 Reminder, Kentucky Sports Radio on Tuesday, 10 to 12. Tune in.
Do not call if you're an AWL. If you call in, you will be suspended from listening to part of my take.
We're really, really asking.

Speaker 1 I feel like we've actually had some success with everyone playing along. We want the Kentucky listeners because the highlights of that show will be on Wednesday's Pardon My Take.

Speaker 1 So please let the true Kentucky sports radio listeners call in. Do not call, just listen.
Do not call in if you're in AWL.

Speaker 1 And if you know someone who's a true blue Kentucky sports radio caller, have them call in. Have them please call in.
But yeah, we'll be doing that. And then we'll have the best of on Wednesday's show.

Speaker 1 It's one of my favorite days of the year. Yeah, it is.
I absolutely love doing it. All right.
Numbers. 14.
6.

Speaker 1 59. 69.
25.

Speaker 1 Oh, first timer. And I was going to guess it.
Oh, no. Oh, no.
It dropped. Dropped.
It was going to be 29. It was going to be 28.
28. 28 is going to be 26.
28's not our first time.

Speaker 1 26, 27, 29 are. Hank, what'd you pick? 14.
Have you won?

Speaker 1 I have not. 54.

Speaker 1 Did you say that? I said 59.

Speaker 1 Fifth time. I posted a new chart, by the way.
Yeah, loved it. Love that.
Do it again every month. You should start keeping track of winners.
That's a clearing omission.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 1 Because Hank has zero, just so you know.

Speaker 1 So do you. Love you guys.
According to Jake's chart, where's the proof? I definitely have two, or maybe even three. Jake, can you confirm? I don't know.
That would take a lot of looking back.

Speaker 1 Confirm right now that Hank has zero. It's fair.
Love you guys. Love you guys.

Speaker 1 Talking away,

Speaker 1 though I don't know what I'm about to say, I'd say it anyway.

Speaker 1 Today's a map

Speaker 1 It's for better to be safe and sorry.
