Speaker 3 And we will hook some people up.

Speaker 1 Today is Monday, March 9th,

Speaker 1 and the times have changed. Literally, it's fucked me up, man.
I'm all out of sorts.

Speaker 3 Don't forget, if you haven't done it already, set your clocks back an hour right now. Get that extra hour to sleep in, enjoy it.
You've earned it.

Speaker 1 I didn't change my watch.

Speaker 3 There you go.

Speaker 1 It's been awesome. It's the best feeling.

Speaker 3 That's what every single year, it's like, who are the true time warriors out there that don't change their clocks and their cars or their microwaves

Speaker 3 on your wrists?

Speaker 1 I'm ready to go. It's perfect.
It was really good to wake up and finally know the right time. So, Hank, should we continue the discussion at all? Should we go back to it at all?

Speaker 1 We were talking before. Hank thinks we've added an hour of sun with the change.

Speaker 1 We have. Okay.
There's

Speaker 3 shiftly as much sun as yesterday. You're just awake for more of it.
We have an extra hour of sun this afternoon.

Speaker 1 Correct.

Speaker 1 We're recording this at 7 o'clock at night.

Speaker 3 It's still light outside, I think.

Speaker 3 And yesterday at 7 o'clock, it was dark out.

Speaker 1 So that's all you get an extra hour. We just added sun.

Speaker 3 But were you awake at 2 o'clock o'clock this morning when it shifted to three o'clock? I was not. That was spooky.

Speaker 1 I'll tell you what, trying to figure out the time change with a baby was hell on earth for my brain because that was the first time I thought I knew what time was, but then

Speaker 3 babies understand?

Speaker 1 No, babies don't. They just wake up whenever they want.
So yeah, it was tough to figure that out. It was the first time that really

Speaker 1 it felt like time put me in a mental pretzel and I couldn't quite grasp it, but we're here.

Speaker 1 We got here.

Speaker 3 I'm just glad that they don't have like Andy Reid coaching football on days like today where you just miss, like there's a ghost hour. He would get too confused by that.

Speaker 1 They should really do the clock changes in the middle of the week so that everyone can have one day where they can show up late to everything and be like, whoops, sorry, dude. I agree.
I fucked up.

Speaker 1 I didn't realize that today was the day we changed the clocks.

Speaker 3 They should have Flava Flav just like climb to the top of Big Ben, the clock, and then he announces when it gets changed on like a random Wednesday afternoon.

Speaker 3 I've always thought it'd be very, very confusing on days like today. if you live inside a state that has multiple time zones in that state.

Speaker 1 Indiana, there are people. I would actually, let's throw that out there.
I would love to talk to someone who works in Indianapolis but lives in central time zone.

Speaker 1 There's got to be someone out there who commutes to Indianapolis. Please, we will have you on pardon my take, and we will just ask you stupid questions like, how does that work?

Speaker 3 Eric Ebron.

Speaker 1 Eric Ebron, does he...

Speaker 3 He probably doesn't.

Speaker 1 He probably commutes all the way from Chicago to Indianapolis every single day.

Speaker 1 Find that that person has to exist. And I would love.
You know what?

Speaker 1 That's definitely a story that uh because rick riley no longer is on this planet it would be great because he would definitely nail that story that's a rick riley story and he would talk to some uh old guy who's been doing it for like 50 years commuting across time zones every single day well he he could just make it up too that's definitely what he could do yeah but we we would like to talk if we can't find somebody that exists in that exact description that big cat gave we'll just invent the story and make it up and be like this guy has been working his hands to the bone wait do you get an extra hour is that good or bad for you if you like live in the central time zone?

Speaker 1 Okay, now we've gone too far. You wake up at like...
Oh, Hank's shaking his head. We've gone too far.

Speaker 1 No, you would, if you had an hour commute to Indianapolis and you had to be at work at nine, you'd leave at seven. So that sucks, but then you get home and have an extra time.

Speaker 1 There's got to be someone we got to talk to.

Speaker 3 Yeah, so it would be awful if you hated your family. Right.
Because then you have an extra hour with your family at the end of the day and you're still up extra early in the morning.

Speaker 3 So that's double suckage. But if you love your family, it's probably good to do.

Speaker 1 And sports being on.

Speaker 1 Yeah, let's talk to that person. We will talk to that person.
All right, so time change.

Speaker 1 Conference Championship Week is finally here. One of the best weeks of the year, the best two weeks of the year right now coming up with March Madness and Conference Championship Week.

Speaker 1 There was basketball all Saturday, all Sunday. Everyone's going crazy about the brackets.

Speaker 3 Who's in and who's out?

Speaker 1 Also blind resume season. Yes.
We have Bubble Watch. We should actually just do the Joe Lennarti beef right now.
So Joe Lennardy is in a beef with Archie Miller, who is the head coach of Indiana.

Speaker 1 Archie Miller, I don't even know if Joe knows that he's in a beef because he's in his bunker.

Speaker 3 No, and actually, like, Joe outsmarted all of us with the coronavirus stuff. He is probably the most immune to coronavirus because he seals himself up in that room for two weeks every year.
He's good.

Speaker 3 So he's going to emerge out into the daylight like I am legend on April 1st and be like, I've done it. It was all worth it.

Speaker 1 We'll have to take cells from Joe Lennarti's body to figure out how to go forward with the human race. Yes.

Speaker 1 Archie Miller, after losing to Wisconsin on Saturday, said, when I was in the Atlantic 10, Joe Lenardi was my best friend. Now he's crapping on Indiana to get people to watch his Sesame Street show.

Speaker 1 Now he can go back in the trash can where he came from. Now, I actually don't think they were best friends.
What he's saying is Joe Lenardi sticks up for the little guy, for the A-10 little guys.

Speaker 1 Now he goes against the

Speaker 1 mid-pack, lower pack of the big conferences like Indiana this year.

Speaker 3 Yeah, calling him Sesame Street, that's a sick burn, though. Like saying you're Oscar the Grouch, go into your trash can, it's tough to come back from that one if you're Joe Lennardi.

Speaker 3 But this is like the two-week span where Joe Lennardy has superhuman powers. I don't think he even

Speaker 3 doesn't know that he's being trash-talked. He probably wouldn't care.

Speaker 1 Nope.

Speaker 3 He seems like the kind of guy that's like, if they're talking trash about you, that means that you're doing your job right. Yes.

Speaker 1 You got haters.

Speaker 3 Listen, when you get into the bracket business, you don't do it to make friends.

Speaker 1 Yes. It's also the week where we get to see the knockoff Joe Lennard's, and I always feel really bad for those people.
I mean, Jerry Palm, who CBS has been trotting out there, he knows.

Speaker 1 Like, you can just look at his hair and you know he knows because he doesn't even,

Speaker 1 I don't think he even knows that they've made products for hair. Like he just, he takes a shower and he just walks out of his door, whatever it looks like.

Speaker 1 But that's a guy who's got a face of I'm number two and it's not even a question.

Speaker 3 Yeah, you can't compete with Joey Bracketts. He designed this industry.
Nobody owns two weeks in a very niche area like Joe Lennardy does. Maybe Mel Kuyper around the draft.

Speaker 1 But even Mel has

Speaker 1 McShay.

Speaker 3 Maybe the Cleveland Browns the first week of January when they're going coach shopping. But then you could always pencil Joey Bracketts in for these two weeks.
This is his time to shine. So like

Speaker 3 there's really no point in trying to upstage him if you're that Jerry Palm guy. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Yeah, you just have to come in. He basically just comes in.

Speaker 1 He does his job and he goes home and he just sits. He probably eats like a really sad, wet turkey sandwich every night in his hotel room being like, what's even the point?

Speaker 3 Corn flakes and water for breakfast.

Speaker 3 You're not overtaking Joey Bracketts.

Speaker 1 Joey Bracketts has got me. Archie Miller also told him to go back in it.
Yeah, he told him to go back in his trash can. I'm trying to find if Jillinardi has responded.

Speaker 1 He probably, again, doesn't even know that this has been lobbed his way.

Speaker 3 Well, that's the thing about Joey B is he's

Speaker 3 he might live in a trash can, but Oscar the Grouch was like very happy in his trash can, and Oscar's had a run of, what, like 40, 50 years. Forever.
So that's exactly what Mr.

Speaker 3 Bracketts is trying to do with his life. That's probably not even an insult to him.

Speaker 1 No, absolutely not. Absolutely not.
So that's going to be.

Speaker 1 Also, Joe Lenardi has a weird simmering beef with Bill Walton, which I can't tell if it's real or not.

Speaker 3 I don't think Bill knows if it's real. No.
You see him blowing bubbles this weekend with Dave Pash? He's just fascinated.

Speaker 1 Yes, and now he's going to get to go to Vegas and take his bike out into the desert and have a great time with the Pac-12 Championship.

Speaker 3 Yeah, so when we interviewed Bill Walton, was that two and a half years ago, three years ago,

Speaker 3 he struck me as being confused as to whether or not the Statue of Liberty and the Eiffel Tower that they have in Vegas was actually the real Statue of Liberty, but he was amazed by it nonetheless.

Speaker 3 Yes. So it doesn't matter if it was real to him, that's all that matters.

Speaker 1 Shocked and amazed.

Speaker 1 By the way, Washington, if you're looking for long shots, Washington and UNC. Those are the two teams in their conference.

Speaker 1 You don't think UNC?

Speaker 1 Cole Anthony said that they were a top 10 team right now. When?

Speaker 1 Like a week ago.

Speaker 3 Yeah, I mean, they've got the best coach in the nation, but I think, you know,

Speaker 3 his players let him down this year. You can't put this on Roy Williams.
Dark horses.

Speaker 1 Washington's finally putting it all together, even though they've lost like a million just terrible, close games that they should have won.

Speaker 3 I do want to say congratulations to your Wisconsin Badgers.

Speaker 1 Well, that's my who's back. We'll get to that on my who's back.
Okay. Yeah, yeah.
Okay, but the Badgers are back. Pretty much.
Do that on Who's Back. Thank you.
Thank you.

Speaker 1 All right. Other things we have to get to before we get to who's back.
The Lakers are in the NBA Finals, so congratulations to them. As first reported by Magic Johnson.

Speaker 1 He said, Laker Nation, after this is after the Clippers-Lakers game today, Laker Nation, after seeing what I saw today from the Lakers defensively and offensively, they are going to go to the NBA Finals.

Speaker 1 There you go. Now, they did just beat the, in this weekend, they just beat what would most people would say are the second and third best team in the league.

Speaker 1 They beat the Bucs on Friday, and they beat the Clippers on Sunday, who the Clippers, with all their healthy guys, were 10-0 until that point. I don't understand.

Speaker 1 We talked about this a couple weeks ago. I don't understand how LeBron James is somehow

Speaker 1 still at the height of his powers at 35.

Speaker 3 It's incredible. They're very good.
Now, would you say that the Lakers are better without Magic Johnson working in the front office?

Speaker 3 Because they've kind of turned it around ever since he quit being team president to be a full-time tweeter. But he got

Speaker 3 his Twitter game has gotten a lot better. I would say that Magic Johnson's Twitter game is better without the Los Angeles Lakers involved in his life.
So it's like both sides.

Speaker 3 It was a win-win situation. LeBron was also asked about the possibility of playing games in front of no fans.
He said that if there are no fans, he's not playing.

Speaker 3 So, like a little reverse of load management, it's good for him. But when the fans take load management, he's like, no, it's not worth me showing up.

Speaker 1 Oh, you didn't even read the whole quote.

Speaker 3 He doesn't understand that, like, there's people that watch at home, though.

Speaker 1 Yeah, no, no, the whole quote was: if there's no fans,

Speaker 1 he's not playing.

Speaker 1 And that he's done his research and he doesn't even think the coronavirus started in China. China would never start something like that.

Speaker 3 Oh, did he say that? Yeah, he said that.

Speaker 1 He's like, and I just trust that China's always doing the right thing. Please, China, get the league pass again.

Speaker 3 And the videos that come out of Wuhan being completely shut down, those are all dockers.

Speaker 1 We tried. We tried to say some nice things about the Lakers and LeBron there.
It took us about 90 seconds to start making some.

Speaker 3 It is funny because it is.

Speaker 1 I tried. I want it on the record.
I tried.

Speaker 3 It's the exact opposite argument of like what, you know, you get all these letters to the editor and they're like, I took my seven children to go see LeBron James play basketball.

Speaker 3 I saved up for five years to buy nosebleed tickets to be able to afford this, and then he sat out for that game.

Speaker 3 And now he's not going to show up if the fans aren't there.

Speaker 1 Right. Yep.
Right. Okay.
So speaking of coronavirus, a little coronavirus update.

Speaker 1 It seems like it's not going away.

Speaker 3 That's what it looks like. Purel.
I still think it's a bitch. Didn't stop it.
I think it's a bitch. I'm going to chug.

Speaker 3 I saw some people that were making their own hand sanitizer out of Tito's vodka and like aloe vera. Okay.

Speaker 3 So I think if you stay drunk, then then it's going to kill all the incoming virus and it won't be able to attach to yourselves, right?

Speaker 3 Because alcohol is an anti-yes. Antiviral.

Speaker 1 Absolutely. That's absolutely the case.
The SEC is staving it off. I don't know if you saw the map.
All the teams in the SEC West, there has not been one coronavirus.

Speaker 1 So the SEC defense is absolutely back.

Speaker 1 We also had...

Speaker 1 Coronavirus play nobody, Paul. Governor Cuomo said

Speaker 1 in an all-time I never take the New York transportation system or any transportation system in the planet, had this tip for people who are afraid of the coronavirus.

Speaker 1 Says, if a subway car or bus is crowded, try to take the next one and avoid other densely packed places as New York Tally hits 105 coronaviruses.

Speaker 3 The next train is always better.

Speaker 1 The next train, you just wait, and there'll be a next train that will not be as packed. That's how the trains work.

Speaker 1 Exactly.

Speaker 3 There's actually nothing more frustrating than being in a subway station and then you're forced to take the next train because it just keeps going and doesn't stop. Yes.

Speaker 3 You feel like, what the hell, what's going on? Oh,

Speaker 1 the empty train that just speeds by, and you're just like, what the fuck? Yeah.

Speaker 1 I said this somewhat facetiously, but thinking about it more,

Speaker 1 if you told me there's a 0% chance you'll ever get coronavirus if you always go down to the train station and wait for the next train.

Speaker 1 So no matter what happens, you see a train and you have to wait for the next one, I'd probably just take the coronavirus.

Speaker 1 That seems like a fate I would not wish upon my worst enemy, to have to wait always in per in perpetuity for the next train.

Speaker 3 Yeah, although it's like you're getting your practice rep in you're doing like a visualization of the first train.

Speaker 1 Here's how I'd walk on it.

Speaker 3 Yeah, yeah, exactly. It's like you pick your spot, you're like, okay, I know exactly what I'm going to do when it's the real deal when the next train pulls up.

Speaker 3 I still think the coronavirus is a little bitch. I'm kind of afraid of it, but I still think it's a bitch.

Speaker 1 People are reporting that in closed circles,

Speaker 1 you are not saying it's a bitch.

Speaker 3 No, those are in

Speaker 1 private conversations.

Speaker 1 no longer calling it a bitch.

Speaker 3 But I have considered just intentionally getting this round of coronavirus because all I know about infectious disease is from the movie Outbreak.

Speaker 3 And so I know that it's going to mutate at some point. And I want to get the first one that's the easy one, yeah.
The easy one, and then I'll have all the antibodies in my system. Right.

Speaker 3 So if you have coronavirus sliding the DMs, let's have a little C V party.

Speaker 1 Do you feel a little bit to blame for some of the hysteria?

Speaker 3 Oh, absolutely. Yeah.
Yeah, totally.

Speaker 1 Yeah. I mean, you started hysteria in this office.
You reported one of our colleagues had coronavirus.

Speaker 3 No, I said it was likely. It turns out it was just the flu.

Speaker 3 It was a normal cat.

Speaker 1 As soon as you came up to me after you're like, hey, it turns out he just had the flu. I was like, yeah, I know.
He definitely didn't have coronavirus.

Speaker 3 Yeah. That was, listen, better safe than sorry.
True.

Speaker 1 So I don't know.

Speaker 1 Better alert everyone and have everyone panic than no one panic and be ready for it.

Speaker 3 I actually think that this office is one of the safest places in the city.

Speaker 1 Because we live with rats and mice. Yeah, exactly.
So we are immune to everything.

Speaker 1 There was a mouse that had babies because there's just been, i've seen a bunch of baby mice they're cute i know i saw one last sunday it's so cute so cute i kind of wanted maybe we should get like a terrarium or something we should actually get a big mouse like playhouse and just put a lot of food in there and then trap them i would think about it you turn on you turn on you watch a sparstillgold.com slash pmt and you just see a bunch of mice running around in a fucking terrarium i'm totally fine with mice we could race them yeah we could gamble on the mice uh mice are very cute rats is where i draw rats are gross Rats are fucking disgusting.

Speaker 1 But yeah,

Speaker 1 back to Cuomo. I just love, this is a bigger picture thing.
We're in politics season because it's an election year. I just love any politician who tries to give advice in any way to normal people.

Speaker 1 And they just tell on themselves that they haven't been a normal person in a very, very long time.

Speaker 3 Just when you're at the supermarket, try to avoid crowds. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Yeah, yeah. When you're at the supermarket buying your $15 gallon of milk,

Speaker 1 yeah, just don't touch anything.

Speaker 3 When you're at Whole Foods getting your extra, extra, extra virgin olive oil and

Speaker 3 your full-time live-in assistant is picking it up, make sure that they wash their hands before they bring it back to the house.

Speaker 1 Yeah, when your maid comes back from the grocery store, make sure that he or she takes an entire bio-bath before entering the house.

Speaker 3 Listen, when you're handing your check for $80,000 to the escort service, make sure that you wear plastic gloves so so that you're not spreading the disease.

Speaker 1 Oh, think about that. Politicians probably have to wear condoms this time around.

Speaker 3 God, that sucks. That is

Speaker 1 the real problem.

Speaker 3 That's why they're declaring states of emergency everywhere. It's like

Speaker 3 this is no good. My dick can't breathe.

Speaker 1 Oh, fuck. Wouldn't wish that on anyone.
All right, so let's do our who's back. Then we have Coach Rabel and DK Metcalf coming up.
Hank, would you like to start with your who's back?

Speaker 3 Sure, I got a couple. The first one,

Speaker 3 continue on the coronavirus talk, but masturbation is back.

Speaker 1 Oh, yeah? Okay.

Speaker 3 Never lack, baby. A report came back that masturbation boosts your immune system and could raise your white blood cell count, helping you fight off infections and illness.

Speaker 3 Okay, so we're pounding off to build up those antibodies.

Speaker 1 Damn.

Speaker 1 The no fap subreddit's going to have a real problem with that one. Yeah, big time.

Speaker 3 My other who's back is coach killer Kyrie. Uh-oh.

Speaker 3 So Kenny Atkinson, who was many people were saying was one of the better coaches last year, took a young group, like really brought them together, got them into the playoffs.

Speaker 3 He got fired yesterday, and people are saying it's Kyrie and KD.

Speaker 1 Okay, well, it's not KD because we're trying to get him on the pod.

Speaker 3 And, well, so this is, but I feel like Kyrie and KD have to be on the same page in some way, shape, or form, right?

Speaker 1 Let's just say it's Kyrie on the same page as Kyrie. Yeah, Kyrie.
So, Kyrie, you think it is, without a doubt, Kyrie was like, this guy stinks, get him out of here?

Speaker 3 Yeah, because last year they were such a tight-knit group, and they were like so much, they performed so much better than expectations. Who else, like, what, where's the difference? What have you

Speaker 3 got paid? What changed from last year to this year? Joe Harris got changed Kyrie.

Speaker 3 They backed that truck up. Yeah, I feel like Kyrie.

Speaker 3 Seventh head coach in nine NBA seasons.

Speaker 1 Kyrie Irving.

Speaker 1 So, I don't know.

Speaker 1 Okay, that tell me. Now, that, Hank, you bring up a good point.
He definitely seven and nine. He gets like a new book every month.

Speaker 1 And then

Speaker 3 he learns some new philosophy theory every month and then tries to apply that at work. And then he comes in and he's like, hey, hey, coach, sorry, we got to let you go.

Speaker 3 I just finally realized what the Xenon's Arrow paradox is all about.

Speaker 1 All right, so what you're saying is that the new coach for the Nets, whoever that may be, needs to become an author and write a book on why you should never fire your coach.

Speaker 3 Yes, exactly.

Speaker 1 And then just slip it into Kyrie's locker room, boom, problem solved for at least a couple months.

Speaker 3 Yes, he needs to have Jordan Peterson

Speaker 1 book about why you're saying coach.

Speaker 3 And then Kyrie will read it and be like, yeah, this guy's ticked around.

Speaker 1 This guy's right. Yeah, the Malcolm Gladwell theory on why coaches should never be fired.
Yes.

Speaker 3 Malcolm Gladwell explains why Joe Prunty is actually the best coach in the entire NBA.

Speaker 1 What were you saying about, what did you say?

Speaker 3 No, I'm saying he's like Matt Damon and Goodwill Hunting. Like he reads the book and then just uses that to achieve.

Speaker 1 Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yes, yes, yes.

Speaker 1 Okay, so Coach Killing Kyrie is back. That was, it was nice of the Nets to announce it as mutually parting ways.

Speaker 1 Because, of course, you mutually part ways in a totally random coaching decision with a month and a half left in the season. Mutually.

Speaker 1 They mutually decided. And the team, I think the Nets are still in the A seed, I believe.
They're still in it. I don't know, but right this second.

Speaker 3 They're trying to get some of that hockey magic. Finishing your coach midseason.

Speaker 1 The Nets beat the Bulls today.

Speaker 1 The Nets had 28 turnovers. Jesus Christ.
And they beat the Bulls. That's actually, that's impressive.

Speaker 3 People are saying the Bulls should get Kenny Atkinson.

Speaker 1 Sure.

Speaker 1 But Jim Boyland, I don't know. He's still building something.
He's building something. I don't know what it is, but he's building something.

Speaker 3 PFT, who's your who's back? My who's back in the day. Winter seven right now.

Speaker 1 No, they jumped up.

Speaker 3 My who's back is women. So it is International Women's Day.

Speaker 3 If you're interested, International Men's Day is on November 19th, I believe.

Speaker 1 Is that different than Staking a Blowjob Day?

Speaker 3 Very different. Okay.
Interesting that they made National Women's Day on the 23-hour day.

Speaker 1 Oh, hank. I just saw someone tweeted that that's that.
Whoa, Hank. I like that.
I just saw someone tweeted that. Stealing.
The patriarch has always, always be stealing.

Speaker 3 And so, you know, the brands and the corporations are getting, you know, we talked about Shell oil is now Sheil, and now oil is down. So you have to wonder, is there a link between that?

Speaker 3 Did Shell get too woke and take their eye off the bottom line of their business? And now oil futures are down 30%.

Speaker 3 Many people are saying.

Speaker 1 It's doing oil today. It goes down.
Oil is huge news right now.

Speaker 1 It is. What do we got? What are you telling us? What aren't you telling us?

Speaker 1 What aren't you telling us about oil? Brought up oil like three times. Can we just start a war?

Speaker 3 Well, no, not with Saudi Arabia because they're very good now.

Speaker 1 I'm getting it.

Speaker 3 What I'm trying to get at is I'm getting paid by MBS. Got it.
He's like the Mike Bloomberg of the Middle East, and so he's paying me to say that Saudi Arabia is good. Nice.

Speaker 3 My other who's back of the week is USA Rugby. They beat Fiji.
Great. Yeah.
So finished. Fiji finished first place in the world last year.
But what did we do?

Speaker 3 And we beat Fiji today in the elimination round.

Speaker 1 So we lost. Third place.
Third place.

Speaker 3 We're playing for fifth.

Speaker 3 But we beat the man. We beat the former number one team in the world.
Got it. So that technically means that we're kind of the best.
Disaster they lost a load management situation for them.

Speaker 3 Okay, my next newspaper of the week is ESPN Plus sucking shit. Yeah.
So I don't know if you guys bought the MMA fight on Saturday.

Speaker 1 16 juice checks.

Speaker 3 That was a great fight.

Speaker 1 Her head looked like it exploded.

Speaker 3 It was like a Manning child mated with Mars attacks.

Speaker 1 Mated with me taking a picture of her head on my TV.

Speaker 3 It did look like a Joe Buck picture, but that's what her forehead looked like just in the natural environment of it. It was an awesome fight, though.
And then the final fight sucked.

Speaker 3 And I told everybody to buy it. That's my bad.
That's on me. I like Stylebender.
But

Speaker 3 ESPN Plus was absolutely atrocious. It kept glitching out every like five seconds.
You know, it was.

Speaker 1 All the conference game, all the random conference games you have to watch on there. They put West Virginia Baylor on there.
That's awful. Yeah.

Speaker 3 That's bad playing. So I don't know.

Speaker 3 Can I get a refund for that? Yep. It was bad.
Absolutely. It was very bad, especially considering you paid like $79 a month.

Speaker 3 I can't imagine working for a company that had any sort of technical issues on pay-per-view situations.

Speaker 1 Never.

Speaker 1 Uh-uh. Not going to happen.
All right. My who's back is, we alluded to it, but the Badgers, they're all the way back.

Speaker 1 Number one in the Big Ten tournament, they won a share of the Big Ten share, so equal parts, but they are the number one seed, so they got all the tiebreakers.

Speaker 3 Who are they splitting it with? 50-50?

Speaker 1 No, Michigan State and Maryland, but I gave

Speaker 1 I'm being nice to Maryland because I know Scott Van Pelt gets very upset when you say anything bad about Maryland, and he likes to point out that Maryland or Wisconsin had to play Nebraska twice, therefore helping their schedule and just completely ignoring the fact that Maryland played Northwestern twice, but that's neither here nor there.

Speaker 1 Wisconsin is back. I actually said, I think I said this two weeks ago.
I was sniffing around it.

Speaker 1 I'm fully believing in this team. So I'm fully believing in this team.

Speaker 3 I kind of believe in them too.

Speaker 1 So here's the game plan.

Speaker 1 Now that I fully believe we are going to probably lose on Friday, which is the first game for them in the Big Ten tournament.

Speaker 3 But you'd probably rather lose that game, right?

Speaker 1 Doesn't mean anything. Exactly.
So we're going to lose so that it then gives me a little pause. And then I'm like, but you know what? Now we're rested, focused.
Everything's in front of us. They

Speaker 1 I want to say they're going to get to the Sweet 16, but I also could see just a heartbreaking second round loss. I don't know.
Either way, I'm all the way in.

Speaker 3 I could see Final Four. I'm all the way in.

Speaker 1 I mean, I took a future 100 to one. No big deal.
Basically going to retire if they win the national championship.

Speaker 3 I won. Well, I'll be honest with you, Dick Kat.
So good chance.

Speaker 3 This year's Wisconsin team, you were saying in the past that that team that made it so far that lost to Duke, that was the one chance that Wisconsin was. Correct.

Speaker 3 This year, it's so wide open. There are no great teams.
Kansas is pretty great. Besides, so Kansas, but yeah, they've got...

Speaker 1 And Zaga, but they've never been to a Final Four.

Speaker 3 Right, so you don't know. They're not battle-tested.
Wisconsin, this could be the year.

Speaker 3 If it's going to be a year, it would be a year like this yeah and there's no dominant year hey pft i know you love these storylines you ready for one

Speaker 1 uh joe burrow won a national championship college national championship where did he go to college before he went to lsu oh state hmm micah potter badgers very good player Where did he go to college before he went to the national championship, which is where Wisconsin will end up being?

Speaker 3 LSU.

Speaker 3 Nope. Ohio State.
Duke.

Speaker 1 Oh. No, no, Ohio State.
Yeah, Ohio State. So, little, we can just start drawing some lines.
Okay. Brad Davidson's playing out of his mind.

Speaker 3 He hasn't hit anybody in the dick in like a week.

Speaker 1 We won on Saturday against Indiana, in Indiana, and they weren't even calling charges for Brad Davison. That's when you know Wisconsin's got it rolling.

Speaker 1 There were two or three times where they blatantly didn't give BuzzCut Brad the charge that he should always, he has a birthright for that charge.

Speaker 3 Right. That's like LeBron beating you when he's not hitting his mid-range jumpers or Steph Curry not beating you when his wife is making weird cooking videos when they're going to games.

Speaker 1 When he's holding her in a winery with a half-chub.

Speaker 3 That was a great picture, wasn't it?

Speaker 1 It was a hot picture. But either way, people,

Speaker 1 I know that people get mad whenever the Badgers do well.

Speaker 1 People were coming at me on Saturday after they won a share the Big Ten title. I got to say it again, a share the Big Ten title.

Speaker 1 Don't worry, you'll have your chance to shit down my throat and watch my dead body on live stream at some point in March. So just hold on tight.
It always happens, right, Hank?

Speaker 3 It always happens. It's looking like this year could be an elite eight or a final four for you.

Speaker 1 I just want them to be great. I just want them to be in the east so that we can watch them at Madison Square Garden.

Speaker 1 Okay, let's get to our interviews. Coach Rabel, and then we have DK Metcalf.

Speaker 5 Before we do that, the Pro Football Football Show is presented by the Chevy Silverado. Built for the hustle, ready for the game.
Chevy Silverado is America's most dependable full-size truck.

Speaker 5 Whether you're grinding through the week or gearing up for kickoff, the Silverado is one ride that's always game ready. Just like football, it's about grit, grind, and getting it done.

Speaker 5 Head to Chevy.com to learn more and build your own Chevy Silverado.

Speaker 1 Okay, here he is, Coach Mike Rabe.

Speaker 1 Okay, we now welcome on recurring guest and very good friend of the program. It is Coach.
I call him Coach. It's Mike Rabel.
Rabes. He gets mad when I call him Coach.

Speaker 6 He's like Eli Manning. I was like, congrats, man.
What a career. Unbelievable, phenomenal.
He's like, thank you, coach. And I'm like, Eli, like, cut the bullshit.
I text back.

Speaker 6 Can we just go with Rabes? He goes, yes, sir.

Speaker 3 That's a very Eli story, right?

Speaker 1 Are you mad at Eli at all about the Super Bowls?

Speaker 6 No, I mean, that's sports. That team got better.
You know,

Speaker 6 that's a great example of a team that was a wild card that played us very tight at the end of the year, the last game, and they improved.

Speaker 6 To their credit, they were playing the best football at the end of the year. That's it's a great message to not only my team, but a lot of people.

Speaker 3 Is he a Hall of Famer?

Speaker 6 You know, I don't vote for the Hall of Fame, but I mean, I really try not to focus on Hall of Fame and this and that. The guy played really well in big games.

Speaker 1 Okay, so he is. Yes.
Or he isn't.

Speaker 6 But he played very well in big games. So he is.
I mean, if you guys got to vote, would you vote Eli?

Speaker 3 Well, it's not the Hall of Very Good. And he was very good at the bottom of the table.

Speaker 1 Don't hide behind those tacits. But you could do the line.

Speaker 3 Do you want me to go raw dog in this interview?

Speaker 1 No, don't do that. Not raw dog.

Speaker 1 Come on, Fraves.

Speaker 1 All right.

Speaker 3 I like that you're committed to the vest game, by the way. I love that.

Speaker 1 Even though you're not rocking up team issue. That's it.
So you

Speaker 1 talking about the Giants, your team obviously didn't get all the way to the Super Bowl, but there was a little bit of that peaking at the right time last year. Are you

Speaker 1 after the season over, could you have a moment where you're like, man, that was really good?

Speaker 6 It was, and I tried to tell our team that I think they were frustrated, and everybody was disappointed that we weren't going to be able to play for a championship.

Speaker 6 But I was proud of the way that they continue to improve from where we were the early part of the season. And we were playing our best football late.

Speaker 6 But I think they also realized, and everybody did, that that's a tough road to go down of four straight road playoff games. Essentially what we did was Houston, New England, Baltimore, Kansas City.

Speaker 6 And that's not the way, that's not the recipe to win a championship. We're going to have to play well enough during the season to be able to host some of those games.
Yeah.

Speaker 3 So during the start of that playoff run, you guys play against New England. That was a great game.
Before the game, you played, what was it, Catch Me If You Can? Like a clip as like a motivational.

Speaker 6 So I always enjoy that movie with Frank Abignil Jr. And the dad, you know, is in debt and he needs to get a loan.
And he pulls his son up in his Cadillac and they're in these nice suits.

Speaker 6 And young Frank doesn't understand what they're doing. And his dad's like, we're going to act like we have money.

Speaker 6 And this bank manager is going to walk out here and he's going to open the door for us. And Frank's still figuring all this out.
And then he says, you know why the Yankees always win?

Speaker 6 He said, because they have Mickey Mantle. He says, no, because everybody's always staring at the pinstripes.
And I kind of like it.

Speaker 6 And just a nice message to be like, there's going to be, when we get there and we go out on the field, there's going to be six banners that say world champion.

Speaker 1 Boom, boom, boom.

Speaker 6 Like, that's not going to determine the game. It was my only point.
Was like, let's not stare up at the banners and worry about what they've done. We got to go try to compete with them.

Speaker 1 That's like Hoosier's measuring the hoop.

Speaker 6 Nope. Same difference.
10 feet.

Speaker 1 10 feet. Same thing.

Speaker 6 Ollie getting on the channel. Come on.

Speaker 1 10 feet. All-time moment.
I almost want to go call my dad and

Speaker 1 try right now. Yeah,

Speaker 3 you probably knew all the tricks that Belichick was going to pull out, like putting the

Speaker 3 giant thermometers in the hallways, letting you know that it's actually like 10 degrees colder than you think that it is.

Speaker 6 Just keeping everybody updated on the weather report. Yeah.

Speaker 1 All right. So let's talk about the tricks when you guys, when you basically became a time traveler in that game.

Speaker 1 How long had you known that that loophole was there?

Speaker 1 For a while.

Speaker 6 It's just unfortunate that we were never in a situation to use it. You have to be ahead in the fourth quarter

Speaker 6 in that situation with the clock running outside of five minutes. And whatever the league chooses to do,

Speaker 6 we're going to play by the rules that they give us. And that was available to us.

Speaker 1 When you saw the situation and it first clicked, like, oh, here we go. Like, I'm about to time travel.

Speaker 3 Well, I think you just try to. Especially to Belichick.

Speaker 6 You know, I think what you try to do is try to anticipate what the situations in the game can be.

Speaker 1 You are exciting. Don't give me coach speak.

Speaker 6 Well, no, I'm just trying to say, like, it's not like spur to moment. It's like, okay, depending on what happens here, like, are we going to go for it?

Speaker 6 You hit the

Speaker 6 penalty, so it was like, let's just

Speaker 1 jump. You did the Rainbow Road shortcut.
You just jumped past like, you know, half of the track.

Speaker 6 Right. It was, it's, it's something that we felt like could help us win the game.
As Coach Speak as I could possibly get.

Speaker 6 Whoever was on the other sideline, we would have executed that situation.

Speaker 3 In that moment, though, as it was happening, as you were time traveling, were you trying hard not to smile because you knew how cool it was?

Speaker 6 No, I mean, I think that I've realized I've gotten good at being able to vomit and puke in my mouth without showing when bad things happen. So I try to do the same thing when good things happen.

Speaker 6 It's just try to stay, keep my composure.

Speaker 1 Okay, so after the game, after that game, you had some fun with Tom Brady's hyenas video.

Speaker 1 Do you think that's going to hurt your recruitment of him?

Speaker 6 I thought that was actually a great compliment to our football team. Nice to meet you.
Because that's... who I think we want to be is

Speaker 6 these animals that hunt and travel in packs and are competitive,

Speaker 6 vicious, and I think that's how we

Speaker 6 try to approach our game and our preparation.

Speaker 1 Okay, so and then afterwards in the in the

Speaker 1 hallway, you and Tom shared a moment. I read that, and then afterwards, so I think you were asked, and you're like, we're going to keep that between us.

Speaker 6 So now that you're here, I mean, it's like Tom's there with his family, I'm there with my family and the kids, and

Speaker 6 the same thing we you know, I mean, I don't even think we talked about the game.

Speaker 6 No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, those conversations haven't come up.

Speaker 6 I mean, I have a relationship with a lot of guys

Speaker 6 that still play.

Speaker 3 Very few tomatoes grown locally.

Speaker 1 It's a great time here. We have Whole Foods.
No, really.

Speaker 6 There's a Whole Foods in Nashville. You like live music?

Speaker 1 Believe it or not. Tom? Okay, well, I got live music for you.

Speaker 3 I don't want to get you into one of these tampering situations because I know the league, they monitor this stuff. They pay attention.

Speaker 6 Don't worry about getting me into anything.

Speaker 1 I'll ask you whatever question you guys want.

Speaker 3 Just, here's the thing. Hank legally changed his name to Tom Brady yesterday.
So if you were to recruit Tom Brady to come play for you, what would you say to Tom?

Speaker 6 What's Hank do? He just moves the camera back and forth a little bit?

Speaker 1 His name's Tom. Yeah, Tom.
Tom Brady. Tom Brady.

Speaker 3 His name's Tom Brady.

Speaker 1 So if you were to work for Tom Tom Tom Tom Tom Tom Tom Tom Tom wants to work for the social media team for the Titans.

Speaker 3 Tom Brady wants to work for you. What would you say to Tom? We have Twitter Nate.

Speaker 1 We know Twitter Nate. He's been a longtime fan.
We've talked to him. He was with the Rams and now

Speaker 1 with you guys. So talk to him.

Speaker 1 Pitch Tom Brady over there.

Speaker 1 I haven't followed what he does. I mean,

Speaker 6 my new guy is Dana, right?

Speaker 1 Dana's taking beers.

Speaker 1 He's getting married.

Speaker 6 Are they really doing it?

Speaker 3 I'm going to be a bridesmaid. I think so.

Speaker 6 I'm going to have to. Can I do something, be an usher or something?

Speaker 1 Private groom and walk him down.

Speaker 3 Tom, what are you doing on Saturday? It's at Denny's in Las Vegas.

Speaker 1 This Saturday? Yeah. I'll be at the Combine.
Oh, shit. How much do you, like, what do you actually get out of the Combine? Because we're, we're talking about the internet.

Speaker 6 I love the interviews. I love being able to sit down.
I try to pretend like I'm you guys and just grill people and grill players and just misdirection.

Speaker 1 So, what's the go-to interview question? No, it changes.

Speaker 1 I don't like write it down.

Speaker 6 I don't write the questions down on a notepad. I go down there like you do.

Speaker 1 Either way,

Speaker 6 I just kind of go and whatever they say, I try to follow up. I have don't defend what you have right now.

Speaker 1 I'm going to show you my t-shirts.

Speaker 1 Hyenas, Derrick Henry, Derrick Henry. They're really getting married.

Speaker 1 Yeah, they're getting married on Saturday.

Speaker 6 Marriage made into heaven.

Speaker 3 Yeah, literally added Denny's, a Denny's restaurant.

Speaker 6 They look like they're in love and they're having fun. They are.

Speaker 1 Ask us a combine question, though. Give us one.
Just one. Maybe one that you used to use that you don't use anymore.
We walk in, we're in our sweats.

Speaker 1 Hey, coach, I don't look you in the eye when I give you a handshake. Red flag.
Put your hood down.

Speaker 6 You know what I mean? Like the guys that have the hood down on him.

Speaker 1 You can get some eye contact, right? Sit up.

Speaker 6 No, I mean, it's just they got to try to find a way to get us to want to go and watch more at our tape. And,

Speaker 6 you know, sometimes are they engaging?

Speaker 6 You know, one player said, said, what's a

Speaker 6 best part of your game? And he goes, aggressiveness. And I was like, the next time you say the word aggressiveness, say it a little louder than aggressiveness.

Speaker 1 That was actually a negotiating trick, though. Whisper, and then the person has to say, what? No.

Speaker 1 Now you're the beta.

Speaker 6 No, it was

Speaker 1 aggressive. I'm like, are you?

Speaker 3 Yeah, I never really understood that because it's supposed to make you and control the situation. If they have to lean in to hear your whisper,

Speaker 1 I didn't lean in.

Speaker 3 Yeah, you make their voice come to you.

Speaker 6 So speak with your children. But I think I like seeing the players interact.
I like seeing how they operate when at a group,

Speaker 6 you know, they travel everywhere for for four or five days and I always ask them like what's what's the guy in front of you? What's his name?

Speaker 6 I don't know. I said you've been with him for three days.
He's been right in front of you in every line you've gone to and you don't know his name? Like what kind of teammate are you?

Speaker 6 What's the guy behind you? What's his name?

Speaker 1 Right. That's a good one.
What about

Speaker 1 how many light posts are there in New York City? Manhattan. Island of Manhattan?

Speaker 3 Light posts? Yeah.

Speaker 6 There's 19,000.

Speaker 3 Okay, that's actually crazy. That's a good guess.
I exactly know how to figure those questions. Do you look at hand size

Speaker 1 for a kicker? No. No.

Speaker 1 Foot size. Foot size.

Speaker 6 Well, because those soccer shoes, if it gets over 14, they don't make them.

Speaker 1 They don't make them stand up.

Speaker 6 Yeah, so if they have too big of a foot, they won't be able to wear the soccer pipe cleats.

Speaker 3 This is a moot conversation because you would never draft a kicker because you hate kickers. Your kicker didn't attempt a field goal for like a week.

Speaker 6 No, that's why we just did red zone all week. We just practiced red zone.
so that we would just go down there and we knew we were going to be able to score. Never have to kick.

Speaker 1 Right. That's revolutionary.

Speaker 3 Was that that actually like part of your thought process actually been what you know i mean we're going to try to adopt i'm going to make a proposal for the xfl like we're just going to do the the the two that i like that the one the two and the three yeah i like just put it on the three we're yeah yeah yeah you'll be like no put it on the 10 and the rest will be like sir you can put you can take it no we're going through the 10 no i want the 10.

Speaker 1 when you brought in cody parkey did you have a moment where you're like so

Speaker 1 what happened there

Speaker 6 no just uh tried to evaluate what his confidence level was and and and he did a nice job for us and you know we did. We went through some turbulent waters with the kicking game.

Speaker 6 And, you know, it's something that we'll have to certainly improve on.

Speaker 3 Do you need an extra camp leg?

Speaker 6 Yeah,

Speaker 6 we're looking for,

Speaker 6 you know.

Speaker 3 I don't know if you saw any of the film.

Speaker 6 I did it. I did it.
I apologize.

Speaker 1 I've heard about it. I've heard about it.

Speaker 6 But I think sometimes with those glasses, I think it can throw off if they're not polarized or that sports lens. Did you kick with the glasses?

Speaker 3 I'll get the visor going.

Speaker 1 Yeah. I'll get OT.

Speaker 1 It'll work.

Speaker 3 It'll work. If you need a camp leg, I'm deadly accurate from 35 yards.
Just I'm serious. If you need me to come out there for a while.

Speaker 6 What was your sports background?

Speaker 3 So I played rugby. I played a little bit of football.
Played soccer, baseball.

Speaker 6 And rugby was college, high school.

Speaker 3 I played rugby in college and then for about 10 years out there.

Speaker 1 And he's going to try out for the new team with Evner.

Speaker 6 I can remember the

Speaker 1 owner. He's going to try out.

Speaker 6 So they would have these clubs and they basically would have tournaments for reasons to bring like 40 kegs to the fields and they would just i mean they would come from all over the place and come to columbus not a frat not a frat no no not a frat but it was like a rugby club and they'd just come and they would beat the shit out of each other for two days and then just chug beers and hug each other after the game

Speaker 3 it was a decent sport yeah our our turn our our big trophy in college was the golden keg it was actually a keg that we had spray-painted golden so again not a frat not a frat

Speaker 1 were you at oh state when joe burrow was there no joey was um i was gone i was in houston well you You got to do like a press conference. Like, I never would have let him out the door.

Speaker 1 Then you get caught.

Speaker 6 I mean, that's how it goes. I mean, the guy in front of him got drafted 16th or whatever.

Speaker 1 Pretty good. Yeah.
But it's going.

Speaker 6 It's pretty good when the backups at your school are, you know, national champions at other places.

Speaker 3 How would you go about tackling Derrick Henry?

Speaker 3 Great question.

Speaker 1 Hmm.

Speaker 6 Probably gang tackle would probably be the best way that I would hope for right now.

Speaker 3 I'm going to rephrase that. You and Derrick Henry one-on-one tackle.
No higher than the kneecaps. Could you hit him? Could you take him down right now?

Speaker 6 If he wasn't looking at me, I could probably take him.

Speaker 1 He'd have to be looking the other way. Looking over the little kids' deer and then just nail him and then.
Didn't you get hurt in a practice drill this year?

Speaker 1 Hurt? Yeah. No, I don't care.
Not injured, hurt. No.
You didn't? I thought you did a practice drill and you got like a little banged up.

Speaker 6 Oh, I might have cut my hand punching at the ball. I hit his face mask.
That's nothing. No, that's.

Speaker 3 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 3 Big cat, do you want to ask him about his penis or should I?

Speaker 1 You do it.

Speaker 3 So do you still have your penis?

Speaker 1 I do.

Speaker 6 Last time I checked before I came, I used the restroom after the interviews.

Speaker 3 Okay. So what was that about? So first of all, why did he give us that?

Speaker 6 Because I didn't want to go on the podcast. I didn't want to have Taylor and Will basically.

Speaker 6 Own me on their podcast. I wanted to go on there.
I wanted in. They were having so much fun doing this thing.
The bus is cool. And I went on.

Speaker 6 And I just didn't want to sit on there and just be boring. I just was like, whatever, I'll answer all their questions.
And Taylor was laughing. And if Taylor's in a good mood, then I'm in a good mood.

Speaker 6 So

Speaker 6 it just kind of came to that.

Speaker 1 Is it a little awkward that you're a bigger fan of Pardon My Take than busting with the Boys?

Speaker 6 You know, you guys are original. You know what I mean? You guys are kind of like the OGs.
So

Speaker 6 I think that

Speaker 6 they would have the bus here.

Speaker 6 They would actually have driven the bus or shipped the bus to Indy.

Speaker 1 They have too much money. They wouldn't.

Speaker 6 they do yeah they they do i'm like will this is this is a great deal man you've got a you've got an investor that you know no matter how bad this thing does you're always going to have right right money being thrown at you so the answer is it is a little awkward because you obviously love us more than you love your own player no no i just think that these guys that these eventually they'll they'll they'll surpass you guys you guys will get lazy you guys will be veterans you guys will get tired you're shtick aware i doubt will's motivated i think they'll pass you guys

Speaker 1 that's good that's the funniest thing you said on this show That is good.

Speaker 3 So that's like the story that you came in to tell on this show to make us laugh just like you came if you didn't want to talk about your dick.

Speaker 1 What about your pinky? Let's do your pinky next year. Let's do it right now.
If you win the Super Bowl, you cut off the tip of your pinky.

Speaker 6 Which crooked one did you want to do?

Speaker 1 Ooh, look at that. See, that's interesting.

Speaker 3 You're right-handed, I'm guessing, right?

Speaker 6 Yeah, how do you know?

Speaker 3 Okay, just because you're not a freak.

Speaker 1 You're not a witch. Snarly fingers.

Speaker 3 How about, yeah, the left one. Your left pinky's all fucked up anyways.
Just the nose.

Speaker 1 Just the tip.

Speaker 6 Just to see how it feels?

Speaker 1 Just a tip. Just if if you've been too bad.

Speaker 6 Ouch out your own my hair.

Speaker 3 Yeah, just from the nail down, the top of the nail down on the left hand.

Speaker 1 You got that. That's easy.

Speaker 3 That's your right.

Speaker 3 That one. That's the one I want to see done.
I'll even make like a little finger guillotine for you.

Speaker 6 You know, they measure, and they, when they measure the hand size, they'll be like right pinky deformation, and they'll like they announce that. Really? And it'll be

Speaker 6 a hand 10, left hand, pinky deformation, nine and seven eighths.

Speaker 1 Wow. That's kind of cool.
Yeah. That's official.
Do you think insider info? Yeah, that is.

Speaker 3 Do you think they should actually measure the tip of the thumb to like tip of the middle finger?

Speaker 1 I don't even know where they measure.

Speaker 6 I have no idea. I just try to watch the tape.

Speaker 1 Does it matter at all?

Speaker 1 Because we were having this debate that it gets overblown by media, but at the end of the day, I would imagine if you're sitting there evaluating a guy, you'd prefer them to have bigger hands.

Speaker 6 It's always going to rain. The tape is always going to win out.

Speaker 6 And then there's a lot of other things that go into it.

Speaker 3 Okay. What about the mustache? Why'd you shave the mustache this year? Yeah, what do you think?

Speaker 1 Because you were on a nice little stream.

Speaker 6 I just felt like it was time. It just, Jen hated it.
You know, there just it really looked, it was brutal after a while.

Speaker 3 Great. Yeah.

Speaker 6 As somebody that can't grow a mustache, Jeff Fisher called, he's like, I just, you need to shave.

Speaker 1 No, you looked awesome.

Speaker 1 It was cool.

Speaker 6 Magnet P.I.

Speaker 1 Do you think you're a little bit of a hardo for doing all these pregame workouts?

Speaker 1 No, like it was no big deal.

Speaker 1 You should come with the camera over here.

Speaker 6 Make sure you get me planking now you know that's not not true it was no big deal for the last six five years that I actually worked out before the game when I ran on the field or did push-ups on the silence then all of a sudden I don't run because my Achilles is gonna blow out the back of my leg so we do this ridiculous workout just to do something

Speaker 6 and it gets blown out of proportion this guy wants to try to out plank me and do all this other stuff

Speaker 3 I was just working out before an XFL game

Speaker 3 you thought that the cameras weren't on you at an NFL game and you haven't seen an XFL since you're like, no, and I'm like, the problem is, is like, we're going to have to do like good form.

Speaker 6 Like the push-ups are going to, like, the camera would be like right here. And I'm like, this is ridiculous.
Can you guys like

Speaker 6 it?

Speaker 1 It's like three and a half hours to get away from the game.

Speaker 3 Did you actually ask the cameras to like go somewhere else? Yes.

Speaker 1 Yeah, you're like, get a better angle.

Speaker 3 You got to put a different filter on there. Yeah.
Can you get it from the top? Get it from the top so it looks skinny.

Speaker 1 I want everyone to get it.

Speaker 3 Skinny arms, guys.

Speaker 3 Skinny elbows. Yeah.
Sorty elbows.

Speaker 1 You love it. You love that attention.

Speaker 6 You guys are in front of a camera your entire life. I would think that you love it a little bit more.
No,

Speaker 1 you are a football guy through and through. I know that you're actually just doing it because you would do it if there were cameras there, if there was no one there, if it was a parking lot.
Sure.

Speaker 1 Right.

Speaker 3 Yeah, it feels good to sweat sometimes before a game.

Speaker 1 Like, get your family.

Speaker 6 I literally have done it the entire coaching career. Ohio State, Houston, Tennessee.

Speaker 1 Did Urban ever come over and just kick your hand out? Like the

Speaker 1 dollar man? Like, sorry. He seems like that kind of villain.
No. No,

Speaker 6 I learned a lot. I learned a lot from Urban.
I did. I learned a lot in the time that I was at Ohio State.
Do you think he's going to coach again? I don't think so. I think he's enjoying his family.

Speaker 6 I think he enjoys the TV.

Speaker 1 He loves coaching, though.

Speaker 6 Sure, he's very successful.

Speaker 6 Very good at what he does.

Speaker 3 Yeah, he does.

Speaker 3 I don't know. It feels like the first year that he was on TV, he hated being on TV.
He got more.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I thought he did it again.

Speaker 3 He felt like he was like a little confident.

Speaker 1 He was a good job this year. Yeah.
But

Speaker 6 he's going to coach again. Does this thing have to move if I move?

Speaker 1 Yeah, you can do whatever you want.

Speaker 1 You're the boss. You're coach.
You are coach.

Speaker 3 Still Vrabes. What was it about

Speaker 3 in the middle of the season? You're like, you know what? The answer to all my problems is Ryan Tannehill.

Speaker 6 You know, we all needed to play better. We needed to coach better and play better.

Speaker 6 And it was a move that I thought was best for the team and in the best interest. And Ryan took advantage of his opportunity.

Speaker 1 It was crazy. I mean, you guys were such a big story, I feel like, of this season and how you finished the season, how you went in the playoffs.

Speaker 1 Are you worried at all, though, in the offseason?

Speaker 1 We were talking about this at the beginning, having that momentum carry over? It won't.

Speaker 6 I don't think. I think confidence, and

Speaker 6 this was the same message that I gave our team, that the confidence that we play with and practice with can carry over, but the momentum has to build throughout the week.

Speaker 6 You have to have a good practice on Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, tighten things up.

Speaker 6 And it's got, you know, I mean, the momentum during football games, you can't just say, oh, we're just going to start off hot, and we're going to have.

Speaker 6 And if we don't have have a fast start, then

Speaker 6 we just can everything. But the confidence that you play with, like, you know,

Speaker 6 I'm trying to relate something athletically that you may or may not have done.

Speaker 1 This podcast.

Speaker 6 Maybe you were, you know what I mean? When you're ripping those hot dogs, right? Yeah. Yes.

Speaker 1 Good point.

Speaker 6 And I'm like, the first run was like, okay.

Speaker 1 I've been trying to get 20.

Speaker 6 Yeah, I made 20 out of those cuts. And

Speaker 6 the dogs are going down easy.

Speaker 6 You're building confidence and momentum. And then the next time you do it, you've got to build that same momentum up.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 1 I understand it now.

Speaker 3 So during the week, do you have? I know because down at LSU, they do like tell the truth Monday, no repeat Tuesday. Yeah, turnover Wednesday.
They have like different names.

Speaker 6 Yeah, we just have Wednesday, Thursday, Friday.

Speaker 1 Oh, that's interesting. Uh-huh.

Speaker 1 Saturday.

Speaker 1 Wow.

Speaker 6 It just kind of was, you know,

Speaker 6 when you play on Thursday, you back up the schedule. So Monday night football, you know, Thursday's a Wednesday.
Friday's a Thursday. Saturday's a Wednesday.
You always try to, you know.

Speaker 3 Saturday, you just blew my mind.

Speaker 1 Well, when you play on Monday.

Speaker 3 Wednesdays are for the boys. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Yeah, which day are for the boys now that you've confused us?

Speaker 6 It would always be Saturdays, right?

Speaker 1 Saturdays, yes. All right, so you got to play more games on Saturdays.
I have one last question. We don't.

Speaker 6 We play noon Sunday.

Speaker 3 Yeah, that's true. That's weird that it's noon for you.

Speaker 1 It's great.

Speaker 3 Yeah, I think Central Time is the best time for them to watch sports.

Speaker 1 No question.

Speaker 1 Last question. Seek eat question, promo code take.
You get $10 off. You've told me this story.
I don't know if we said it out loud, but are you, after the whole Penn National deal?

Speaker 1 Are you a little, do you have buyers' remorse that you didn't invest in barstool? Because you said that

Speaker 6 there was a day where we would walk that computer, Lonnie Paxton was walk his laptop around, and it was the January 2020.

Speaker 1 Okay, maybe

Speaker 1 four, oh, four, oh, yeah. I mean, it was right around there, I can't remember.

Speaker 6 I mean, but it was, it was janky, um,

Speaker 6 and it, and it was usually a couple clips and a smoke show, and

Speaker 6 we're like, Ronnie's like, hey, check out this site. And we're like, okay, you know, it's kind of cool.

Speaker 6 And then I'm just, you know, really obviously

Speaker 6 excited for you guys and what you guys have done and just gotten to know you guys. So no buyer's remorse.

Speaker 1 You could have invested. Should have.
Could have bought the whole thing. Should have.
Right at that moment.

Speaker 3 You might not have been as hungry, though, if you had gotten fat and rich based on your early

Speaker 1 fat and rich.

Speaker 1 Yeah, oh, that's a good point.

Speaker 3 Fat and rich is a great, that's a great name for like a country band or just, that's a a good t-shirt, fat and rich. It's just life goals right there.
That's it.

Speaker 1 All right, so what

Speaker 1 story?

Speaker 1 Yeah, that actually would be my great autobiography. Fat and rich is a way to go through life.
Uh-huh.

Speaker 1 It's fun.

Speaker 1 It's a great life.

Speaker 6 You don't let it beat you down.

Speaker 3 My last question.

Speaker 3 Just the name Dean Pease.

Speaker 3 That's just a funny name.

Speaker 6 That's a good question. Dean's amazing.
If we would have made it to the Super Bowl, Dean would have been the only coordinator to ever coach for three different teams in the Super Bowl.

Speaker 1 Whoa, it's wild.

Speaker 6 Patriots, Ravens, and then

Speaker 6 they told me that after he retired, and I'm like,

Speaker 6 sorry, Dean.

Speaker 3 So are you just taking over the entire defense now?

Speaker 6 No, not the entire defense. We have a great staff still working through that process of who's going to call plays, but we have a great staff, and we added two new guys, and looking forward to it.

Speaker 3 Oh, that was a great coach speech. That's very good.

Speaker 1 And

Speaker 1 still working through that process. You know exactly who's going to be called players.
Ended on coach speech. Yeah, I mean, you can.

Speaker 6 Ended on coach speech.

Speaker 1 You know, you have a plan for everything. We're like, yeah, we're still working through that process.
We're talking to the the right guys. We're trying to formulate our protocol for next year.

Speaker 1 You know, we're validating a matrix. We're building a matrix.
Let's just put our guys in the best place to win on Sundays. That's all you got to do as a coach.

Speaker 3 That's perfect. You got to get your guys in the right mindset to compete.

Speaker 1 And there's a fine line through this.

Speaker 6 There's a fine line between having fun and then reverting back to Coach B. Actually, I try to think that it's an art.

Speaker 1 Click right back into it.

Speaker 1 Are you getting anything? All set. All right.
Dean P. Coach Rabel.
All Braves. Braves.
There you go.

Speaker 1 Thank you we got to go to a game this year come on down bring the podcast let's go one-on-one versus bustin and the bears might be playing in nashville this year the bears are playing we

Speaker 6 chicago drank nashville dry last time i heard arthur told me arthur showed me videos of them taking over they drank all the beer off of broadway and that was when the bears were like eight and one and they were and they destroyed yeah i think it was like 55 21.

Speaker 1 we were returning every uh interception for a touchdown and then it just didn't sustain and we just fucking cratered i mean i think it'd be cool to go down for the the Thursday night Jaguars Titans game.

Speaker 1 Yeah, is that going to be a dish?

Speaker 1 Throwbacks.

Speaker 1 Yeah, the rush. Oh, yeah.
You got minshewed. Your ass got minshewed.
Second, third week? Yeah. That was the start of Minshew Mania.
How'd that feel?

Speaker 6 To get Minshewed. Talking about a mustache.

Speaker 3 Yeah. Great mustache.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 You were probably

Speaker 1 this guy coming up.

Speaker 3 That's probably why you grew your mustache out because you saw that Minshew beat you and you're like, to be the man, you got to beat me.

Speaker 6 My

Speaker 6 grown after the season.

Speaker 1 All right. Thank you, Braves.

Speaker 6 Appreciate it. Lot of fun.
Thanks, Braid. Proud of you guys.

Speaker 3 And now, DK Metcalf.

Speaker 1 Okay, we now welcome on recurring guest,

Speaker 1 DK Metcalf, from the Seattle Seahawks. He is in studio.
First of all, looking very spring, New York. You got the Yankees hat, you got everything set up, but you're here for more important things.

Speaker 1 You have a race with PFT coming up. You also have a feud with PFT.
So let's get to the bottom of it. How the hell did this feud even start for people who might have missed it?

Speaker 3 all i know is i was tagged you know out of the blue and uh you know i felt like he was trying me so well i didn't first of all i didn't tag anybody it was started by the person who runs the barstool instagram account they showed me demonstrating the proper get off technique in a 40 yard dash i actually went back and watched some of your film when you ran the 40

Speaker 3 your like 0.004 yard split was not great like the start i feel like you could have done better on and so i was demonstrating that good starting technique to Stephen Che, who works in our office here.

Speaker 3 And they tagged you and they said, I think PFT could beat DK in a race.

Speaker 3 I had no part in that tagging, but then you responded. And when I got brought into it, I had to finish it.

Speaker 1 I mean, I responded with just,

Speaker 1 you know, you can say that when you know you're going to lose. Right.
You're not losing anything. Okay, so what was your 40 time?

Speaker 1 We all know your three-cone drill was terrible, like the worst of all time.

Speaker 1 What was your 40-time, though?

Speaker 1 I think my 40-yard time was... I mean, just look it up in the

Speaker 1 record book. All right, fine, fine.
You want to be different?

Speaker 1 It's in the record book. You know, I was coming in as like going to put it in straight.
Yeah, the neutral guy.

Speaker 1 But you're pushing me towards PFT here. You got an attitude.

Speaker 1 What do you want me to do? You just said

Speaker 1 my three-cone was like. Well, it was.
It was objectively like the worst 30-cone.

Speaker 1 Did you see the video? No, I did not. Did you get hurt? I slipped three times.
Oh, you slipped three times.

Speaker 3 Why did you change the longer studs?

Speaker 1 Your judgment is not good with that.

Speaker 1 colours. I slipped three times.
I came off

Speaker 1 a great performance at the combine. So I was just trying to get home to it.
4-3-3. 4-3-3.
That's pretty good.

Speaker 3 That's pretty good. And would you say your vertical leap was 14 inches? 40 and a half.
40. I always get that confused if you say 14 inches.
40 and a half.

Speaker 1 Okay, that's pretty high.

Speaker 1 Mine is 25 and a half. Well, no,

Speaker 1 it's just

Speaker 1 dunked.

Speaker 1 I've dunked before. With a smaller ball, but it like a ping pong.
9 foot ramp. No, a 10 rim.

Speaker 3 Yeah, I dunked a ping-pong ball at one point back in high school. No one saw it.
No one saw it, just me.

Speaker 1 Oh, no.

Speaker 3 I feel like a 25.5-inch vertical leap from me proportionally is better than a 40-inch vertical leap from you because you're already so tall.

Speaker 1 Proportionately, what do you mean by that?

Speaker 3 It's like a flea. You see a flea.
You can't soldier.

Speaker 1 You shaped like a mini fridge already. That one hurt.
Now,

Speaker 1 that one felt like it was a little bit of body shaming, which we don't do in 2020. You're ripped.
You got abs. PFD, it's winter season.
PFD could get ripped if he wanted to, but he doesn't want to.

Speaker 1 I mean, drinking.

Speaker 1 60 degrees outside. No, he doesn't want to.
He doesn't want to show people up.

Speaker 3 I feel like it would actually be a bad look for me if I was jacked up. It's like you can't have it all.
You know, you got this really attractive dude, has enormously successful podcasts.

Speaker 1 Somebody's lied to it. And he's able to pinch 350 pounds.
It's not fair. Somebody's lied to you.
It's kind of like your skill set.

Speaker 1 You're super fast, you're super athletic, but you can't actually run in different directions besides straight ahead. Exactly.
Like, if you could do it all, that would be unfair. Exactly.

Speaker 1 So, that's kind of what he is. You're not an Andy Turner.
I can do everything, but not very well.

Speaker 1 So, like, I can't do anything elite. So, it's kind of like the perfect jack of all trades, master none situation.

Speaker 1 You're a pot of gumbo. Right, exactly.
I'm gonna, I'm gonna run. I'm a pot of gumbo.
That's pretty good. Actually, gumbo is delicious.
I don't take that as a disrespect.

Speaker 1 I don't think that's a compliment. Yeah, somebody from Mississippi, that's a result of a discussion.
I don't take that as a disrespect at all. Yeah, I see Coach O everywhere.

Speaker 1 That's just a pot of gumbo.

Speaker 3 So, did Coach O actually try to recruit you?

Speaker 1 No, I was too young. Okay.
Oh. And he was the OC DC at LAC when I was coming out.
Yeah. So that would have been weird if he tried to recruit you for defensive line as a 12-year-old.

Speaker 1 That would have been funny, though.

Speaker 3 Were you recruited to only play wide receiver? Was there a coach that tried to get you to switch up and be like a linebacker?

Speaker 1 No, I was a receiver. I wasn't always this big coming out of high school.
Yeah. I was like

Speaker 1 6'1.

Speaker 1 185. Did you have one of those moments I always find it curious with pro athletes?

Speaker 1 Like one day you just woke woke up and you're like, hey, now I'm five inches taller and a lot bigger and a lot stronger. After I broke my foot in college,

Speaker 1 I was in the gym twice a day, so I grew massively.

Speaker 3 I broke my foot

Speaker 3 and got fatter.

Speaker 1 Every time I wake up. Is that why you didn't make the XFL?

Speaker 3 Yeah, I have a Jones fracture in my left foot, in my plant foot.

Speaker 1 Oh, I have a Jones fracture in my left foot.

Speaker 3 It's tough. It's like one of the hardest injuries to come back from.

Speaker 1 Every morning I wake up, I'm like, maybe this is the day that I woke up and I'm just a little taller, a little bit more in shape. But it doesn't matter.
You still wake up? You still wake up.

Speaker 1 Still like that. Yeah, yeah.
But it hasn't happened yet, but who knows? Maybe I'm a late person.

Speaker 1 You don't think it's too late? Never give up on that. No, absolutely not.
With science, the way science works these days, you never know what could happen. It may be too late.

Speaker 3 Yeah, okay, so just some highlights from the back and forth that you and I had. Because you had some good lines.
The mini fridge line, I admit, that was good.

Speaker 3 Although, I feel like a mini fridge, that's a pretty cool thing to look like. Who doesn't like mini fridges? Look at that mini fridge right there.
That's a cute mini fridge.

Speaker 3 Yeah, it's very cute.

Speaker 1 I mean, it's just like there, though.

Speaker 6 It's a Dorbs, though.

Speaker 1 It's like there.

Speaker 3 All right, so you said, it's easy to say that you can beat me when you know that you're slow. You said that to me.

Speaker 3 And I said, ask your girl how slow I am.

Speaker 1 Then I said the unicorn trash talk. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
What did I say? What did I say? What did I say?

Speaker 1 What did I say?

Speaker 3 When you saw the unicorn trash talk emoji, where you're like, man, this guy, he means business. No,

Speaker 1 I don't look at emojis as,

Speaker 3 you know, scary tactic. She said, you slow and you fit the stereotype.

Speaker 3 What does that mean? I don't understand.

Speaker 1 I just want to on the record, too. There are two young children in this room right now.
It's a little weird, but yeah, that's okay.

Speaker 3 I'm deceptively fast. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Deceptively.

Speaker 3 Like, I'm the first one in, last one to leave type guy. No.

Speaker 1 You're the first one in and the first one to leave. Okay.
If you know what I mean. All right.

Speaker 3 And I said,

Speaker 3 that's not the only thing that she says that I fit.

Speaker 1 So something to

Speaker 1 do.

Speaker 1 Yeah, we don't have to. That was a little.

Speaker 3 Don't make me add a three-cone drill to this. I've been on the TB12 method.
I told you that one. Yeah.

Speaker 1 What did I say after that?

Speaker 3 What did I say after that? And then after that, you said, hang on, I'm scrolling down.

Speaker 1 Oh, he's scrolling past that. No, I'm not.
No, I'm actually scrolling down.

Speaker 1 His memory is a little blurred. No, I'm getting to it.
He DM'd me and was like, hey,

Speaker 1 like, I know, you know, we're two competitive dudes. You know, none of us are going to quit.

Speaker 1 So this is called a truth.

Speaker 3 I was also in the...

Speaker 1 You were the first to be. Well, I told him off the record, I was like,

Speaker 3 because I knew you weren't going to stop. I wasn't going to stop.
We were doing these interviews. I was like, how much longer am I going to be talking shit with DK Mecca?

Speaker 1 So competitive. Why truce somebody? Why? Make the other person come.

Speaker 3 My phone was running out of batteries. And then you said,

Speaker 3 then you screen grabbed.

Speaker 1 Damn.

Speaker 3 Then you screen grabbed that and you put that out there. So I was like, okay, let's keep it going.

Speaker 1 What did I say? I'm trying to. You called for a truce?

Speaker 3 I didn't call for a truce. Sounds like you called for a crazy card.

Speaker 1 I called for a truce, and then I said he looks like Fabio's homeless cousin. Oh, yeah, that was good.
I didn't realize that.

Speaker 3 Yeah, so then he replied with, You look like Fabio's homeless cousin, which you don't understand is a huge compliment to me. It's not.

Speaker 3 Like, Fabio is probably the hottest person to ever live right male or female exactly and saying that i live like

Speaker 1 a jv version

Speaker 1 no that's he's got the same genes yeah homeless cousin is still like your cousins look a lot like you that's good no yeah yeah no that's good that was you you kind of screwed yourself on that one what else how to finish basically it just it devolved into me saying that you can't turn that you're like mike i said west coast mike wallace i think yeah that wasn't a good one why not mike wallace he couldn't he ran a nine-route.

Speaker 3 That was it.

Speaker 1 I mean, but he was successful in the league. Are you, do you actually like practice other routes? Have they gotten that part of the playbook for you? Or is that?

Speaker 1 I mean, if you watch some of my film, I do run curls. You do? Yeah.
Okay. And do you put your blinker on when you're trying to run a curl? Slow down.
Let everyone know.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 3 What's your favorite non-go route to run?

Speaker 1 A comeback. Oh,

Speaker 1 that's straight lines.

Speaker 3 That's weird because you weren't very good at them on the Instagram battle.

Speaker 1 Oh.

Speaker 1 ah, damn. Got you there.
Yeah. That was good.

Speaker 1 There you go. Got you.
Oh, oh,

Speaker 1 now it just messed up. That's messed up.
So I think this is just going to end up being. That's fine.

Speaker 3 I want coronavirus from you anyways.

Speaker 1 This is going to end up being a beef. Yes.
Seattle. Did you just come from Seattle? No, I haven't been to Seattle since the offseason started.

Speaker 1 Nice travel. What round was that?

Speaker 1 Second round. You guys lost in the second round.
Actually, no, I can't even make fun of you because I wanted you to beat the Packers.

Speaker 1 Okay, so I think you guys are just never going to fully get along, but have a mutual respect in the trash-talking game. Is that fair to say?

Speaker 3 For an athlete, you're a pretty good trash-talker. Yeah.

Speaker 1 For an athlete. For an athlete.

Speaker 1 And if we're going off your three-cone drill, I don't know if we can even say athlete.

Speaker 1 I'm just being, I'm stating facts, right? Like, is that not a fair fact? I want to throw a. All right, so.
If someone watched your three-cone drill, I wouldn't say athlete.

Speaker 1 You said you're going to be neutral. You said you're going to be neutral.
I am. I am.
You keep going little sleeping.

Speaker 1 I had to just say that part: that if we watched it, if we watched some ice cream, no, if we wanted to, yes,

Speaker 1 I actually ate some just an hour ago. Listen, I know.

Speaker 1 You can't hurt something that I know and say openly. So I actually just ate ice cream no more than an hour ago.
So you are an athlete

Speaker 1 for the most.

Speaker 1 I don't know. It's probably three, four.

Speaker 6 Is it a bowl?

Speaker 1 How many? Three, four. Three, four.

Speaker 1 Three, four. All right.

Speaker 1 Three or four. Yeah, which means five if you actually go by real math.

Speaker 3 Okay, so I found the actual blog that's got the rest of it. So here's some more highlights.

Speaker 3 Okay, you said, what's more embarrassing, not making the XFL or being named you brought my dead brother into it. That's funny.

Speaker 1 Number one.

Speaker 3 I replied with

Speaker 1 freaked up. I said,

Speaker 3 if only I kicked as straight as you run.

Speaker 3 So

Speaker 3 brought it back to that whole not turning thing. So Fabio's homeless cousin wants to call a truce, and that's when you posted the screen grab.
Truces hurt you, Peter. It's called a scrupulous shoot.

Speaker 1 It does hurt you. The truce.
The screen grab. Being the first to call a truce.

Speaker 1 Being the first to call a truce definitely takes points away from you.

Speaker 3 Well, so I said, DK, I would like to propose a truce with you. Neither one of us will back down to all time great competitors.

Speaker 1 That's just competing. That's bad.
Hold on, what did I say on Twitter? That's bad.

Speaker 3 I think you said probably the same thing.

Speaker 1 No, that's like sending the DM like, ha ha. See, he's a good dude.
So on Twitter, he was like, me and DK are going back and forth. We'll see how long he can last.
Oh,

Speaker 1 you get the truce. Yeah, and then I was like, We'll see how long you can last.
Pops, like, you're gonna need some Viagra.

Speaker 3 Yeah, I do like that you call me Pops, though. That makes that's kind of like a sound of a single.

Speaker 1 Oh, I didn't call you Pops. Like, you know, you're old.
That's what I was writing at.

Speaker 3 Then we got into a gif off. You, you posted a gif of yourself, or do you call it GIF? I don't know.

Speaker 1 You said, you know, I don't know what it's called.

Speaker 3 And then I hit you back with a GIF of myself, and you said, No Freyad, send Dad Bod some supplements.

Speaker 3 And so, uh, no, you said me, no, no, you said, Nest quick, send dad bod some supplements. Again, talking about dad bod.
Then I talked about the Packers and how they beat you, which you already knew.

Speaker 1 I mean, was it Dad Bod to me or was it to me? No, it was good. I was going to say, don't make me bring up the three-coat drill again.

Speaker 3 Yeah, and then you said,

Speaker 3 what's your secondary lingerie football league? I said, if I cared about the underwear Olympics that have nothing to do with the real game, I would have just watched your combine tape.

Speaker 1 Boom.

Speaker 1 That was good. That was good.

Speaker 3 And then you put some crying faces, and you're like, let's see that vert cry face emoji, cry face emoji. And then you kind of backed out now at the end.

Speaker 3 You know that you like, you were the one that pretty much tapped out. You said you were welcome, we should do this again sometime.

Speaker 1 And we're doing it again. And we're doing it again sometime.
So you kind of. No, you left some stuff out because, all right, here's what, here's my point.
Okay.

Speaker 1 It was between me and you trash talking. Then you want to bring my quarterback and my secondary.
And like, you're running out of stuff to talk about. I can see.

Speaker 3 That's true. I did.

Speaker 1 Me not turning. Yeah.
I mean, that gets gold. That gets old quick, you you know.
Does it?

Speaker 3 Yeah. I mean, I could.
I like to compare you to an aircraft carrier. So, like, you go, you're powerful and you go straight.
And then you turn by degrees of like 1%.

Speaker 1 Exactly. They tell everyone, they're like, hey, tomorrow we're going to turn.

Speaker 1 And then they turn the aircraft curve. There's like

Speaker 1 another five dozen little tiny men that live in your head. Another slick joke.

Speaker 3 And they start cranking, like, they start pulling the buttons and stuff.

Speaker 1 And then the rudder just slowly moves.

Speaker 3 So, in this 40-yard dash, a race that we're doing,

Speaker 3 am I allowed to to have a curve in the track or a corner to go around?

Speaker 1 Is there a curve in the regular 40-yard dash? Yeah, he's allowed to. I'm the neutral arbiter.
We're about to

Speaker 3 be some sort of a shuttle run.

Speaker 1 Yeah, that's whatever you want. Bro, right.
I mean, I'm passing you. I know I'm going to beat you, so like.

Speaker 1 Okay. All right.
Well,

Speaker 3 we'll go see. Well, let's see.
Let's see what happens.

Speaker 1 We'll find out.

Speaker 3 All right. So, me and DK just got back in from a race.
I beat you by, what, six yards, seven yards?

Speaker 1 I mean,

Speaker 1 when the evidence comes out, then I'll let y'all, you know. Yeah, big cat, as a neutral party,

Speaker 3 what did you see happen out there?

Speaker 1 I mean, you technically won, yeah. I think

Speaker 1 we say that. Who? BFT did.
He won. How did he technically win?

Speaker 1 I am now the third wheel in a budding love relationship that's going on between the two of you. So I'm just going to let you guys hash it out.

Speaker 1 You guys are clearly enjoying each other's company a lot, running up and down hallways and stuff.

Speaker 3 The most important part is Big Cat just said, technically, PFT1.

Speaker 1 Technically, he did. Wow.

Speaker 1 He said, race that go, and then he beat you down the hallway. While he was talking to me, like telling me, all right, we're going to go around another corner.
I didn't see that part.

Speaker 1 I didn't see that part. All I know is it is race that go.
No one.

Speaker 3 Football is a chess match.

Speaker 3 When you go up against a good cornerback, you're going up against Jalen Ramsey, and he's like, hey, DK, I'm going to do press coverage on you right now. And then he doesn't?

Speaker 3 Are you like, hey, he cheated because he lied to me about what he was going to do?

Speaker 1 Are you like, he beat me? All right. Are we playing football or are we racing? We're racing.

Speaker 1 Don't mix sports right here, bro.

Speaker 3 We just race. And I pulled my hamstring.

Speaker 3 And so I would probably never be able to race ever again. Bro.

Speaker 3 So I would love to do it again. I would love to.

Speaker 1 No, I wouldn't.

Speaker 1 All right. When your editor gets this, don't cut anything out.
He's right there. He's sitting right there.
Hank, my boy. Yeah.
Don't cut anything out.

Speaker 1 All right.

Speaker 3 I'm telling you, I would love to do it again. I wish I could do it right now.

Speaker 1 You're not going to cut anything out.

Speaker 3 I'd like to beat you right now again, but unfortunately, my hamstring is clear off the bone.

Speaker 1 I'm not worried. You got it, bro.
Okay, well, DK, thank you for coming in. Thank you for losing to PFT in that race.
Better luck next time. I don't know how to end this.
It's kind of awkward for you.

Speaker 1 Like, better luck next time.

Speaker 1 Right? I mean, you guys are clearly best friends now, so enjoy that. At least you have that.

Speaker 3 What's weird is now I am going to be rooting really hard for you because if you win a Super Bowl, I'm like, I beat that dude in a race. That's crazy.
I could be doing that.

Speaker 1 You guys came as enemies and left as friends. That's kind of how it goes.
All right, DK's leaving, so that clearly he's showing that he did lose.

Speaker 3 DK Metcalf was.

Speaker 8 Aldi is now on Uber Eats. So whether your fridge is empty and you're too tired to shop, or you just ran out of essential ingredients, don't worry, we got you.

Speaker 8 Get 40% off your first Aldi order on Uber Eats with code New Aldi25. Orders $30 or more, save up to $25, and it's 1231.
See out for details.

Speaker 1 Okay, let's get to some segments.

Speaker 3 And you're going to be able to watch the race with DK.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 3 We'll put it out on our Twitter account later on today. But I fucking roasted him.
Gross.

Speaker 1 See his slow poke. He probably is going to retire, if I had to guess.
Yeah.

Speaker 3 I hope I get a call from Pete Carroll to try out tomorrow. Yeah, or at least show up shirtless too.

Speaker 1 Or at least to be his

Speaker 1 muse that you can get him back into the right mindset to play football.

Speaker 3 I'll be his turning coach.

Speaker 1 Yes, yes. We just figure it out.
Just say, DK, left, right?

Speaker 3 I'm just going to walk in front of him and occasionally, once or twice a day, I'll just drop a cone, one of those circular cones in front of him, and he just has to avoid the cone.

Speaker 1 Or just cross him up and see if he can actually get around you. Probably not.
No, probably not.

Speaker 1 All right. Shoe Roast for the LA Rams new logo.
Leaked logo, which seems to be correct. It is.

Speaker 1 First of all, I thought it was the Chargers logo.

Speaker 3 It looks like it's got a C.

Speaker 1 It looks like it's got a C. It's a Ram shell shaped in a C.

Speaker 1 it looks like the chargers which I'd have to imagine if you had like a list if you're sitting in the Rams PR room and you're designing this new logo at the top in like bold letters it should say please make sure there is no ambiguity with the chargers two yeah two things one don't include the chargers two if we could avoid using the word st.

Speaker 3 Louis in connection with the Rams right those are really the only two steps you have that's it and they didn't do one It makes me think that maybe it's a combination hat.

Speaker 3 Like, it's like the LA football movement. I like that.
So it's like. We just like football out here.

Speaker 1 Right. It's like a Drake.

Speaker 3 The Mets or the Carmelo Anthony wears the Mets Yankees hat.

Speaker 1 Yeah, exactly.

Speaker 1 Right. Who doesn't do that?

Speaker 3 It's a hat specifically for Drake as he decides which NFL team to become a fan of.

Speaker 1 It's like the Rob Lowe. Rob Lowe roots for any team that's in the championship.
It's not like a good time.

Speaker 3 Like a Fibonacci spiral type thing on it. It's just very weird.
It's weird.

Speaker 1 It's weird. And the Rams have a good logo, so I don't know why they're changing it.
Yeah.

Speaker 3 They should always just be the blue and the yellow and the Rams swirl. Right.

Speaker 1 That's great.

Speaker 3 It's a perfect helmet. I don't know why.

Speaker 1 Some of these logos, they just overthink everything. At least, like, there's so many cool things you could do with the LA and the Rams.

Speaker 1 Like, just have it be, I don't know, two people playing volleyball, two very attractive people playing volleyball.

Speaker 3 That's a pretty good idea.

Speaker 1 That's it. Like, that's the logo.
I mean, it's the whole logo. When you think about it, something for the guys, some for the girls, for the boys.

Speaker 3 The best logos in sports are usually the simplest. Right.
Like the Yankees logo. Pinstripes, pinstripes, the star in Dallas.

Speaker 3 I'm not saying that I like these, but they're the most universally known logos.

Speaker 1 Right. The easiest ones to dodge.
That's a cool logo. Right.
L.A. The ball cat.
Yeah,

Speaker 1 the Dodgers logo is actually low-key awesome.

Speaker 3 You know what my favorite logo in all of sports is, though? It's a little bit more complicated. It's the Brewers logo.
Fuck the Brewers. Because the Brewers.

Speaker 1 Shout out to Christian Yaltch for getting money though. Get paid.

Speaker 3 It's got the mid on there, and it's got the letters M and B.

Speaker 1 That blew my mind. Shout out to 12 years old.
It's like the UPS logo. Or is it FedEx? FedEx.

Speaker 3 FedEx has the arrow in it.

Speaker 1 It has the arrow going forward.

Speaker 3 Part of my take, the logo for us.

Speaker 1 No, don't tell them. Don't tell them.
Don't tell them this. I was going to say

Speaker 3 one part of it.

Speaker 1 No, don't tell them the hidden meeting. They'll figure it out.

Speaker 3 Okay, figure it out in your head.

Speaker 1 You've got to try to figure it out.

Speaker 1 Let's just say we were very high when we created it, so you might have to do so to.

Speaker 3 People think we just threw that logo together.

Speaker 1 No, no. There's a

Speaker 1 very subtle, hidden meeting that tells you everything you need to know about this podcast.

Speaker 3 One thing that isn't shown on the logo, and here's a little behind-the-scenes tip: Stella is in heat.

Speaker 1 Yes, yes, and even though she's been spayed, spay and neuter your pets, please. Bob Barker didn't die for that, even though he's still alive.
But I'm just waiting for that call.

Speaker 3 It's going to happen.

Speaker 1 I don't, I don't want it.

Speaker 1 Whatever.

Speaker 3 If your pets are neutered, then

Speaker 3 they have a higher probability of getting coronavirus.

Speaker 1 No, pets back off pets cannot get coronavirus they don't have symptoms of coronavirus they can be carriers but they cannot have coronavirus so dogs bro uh dogs rex chapman watch this person die then dogs brah uh all right tbow update he's been sent out that's fine he'll be back i think he went two for 13 this year so he's going to what double a now

Speaker 1 They might even just make up a fake team for him to go play on to be like, hey, this guy's still doing this. Okay.

Speaker 3 If I'm Tebow, I hold out at this point.

Speaker 3 Because the Mets are so incompetent that they don't even know what they have in tim tebo some may say that the mets like continually cutting tim tebow and putting him down in the minor league is the only good roster move they make well that's what i'm saying so like tim tebow makes them feel smart every year they're like okay we're we know what we're doing with baseball we see this guy's slash line is like 183 212 and 312 or whatever so we know okay that guy's bad so we're gonna get rid of him good job us yes we know how to scout him any competent team would see tim tebo and see the value in him not for his talent at baseball, but just for his overall Tim Tebow-ness.

Speaker 3 And having him on your team is a good luck charm. He's like a walking, breathing, circumcising rally monkey.

Speaker 1 That's true.

Speaker 3 He is the ultimate mascot for a team.

Speaker 3 Any competent Major League Baseball team would know that they need to bring Tim Tebow into their clubhouse for their Major League squad. Sad.

Speaker 1 It's very, very sad. So Tim Tebow, maybe next spring.

Speaker 3 Hope Spring's eternal. Well, it's nice of them to cut him this early.

Speaker 3 It's like when you watch hard knocks, and they usually cut the pretty good veteran early because they're like, we want to give you enough time to find another team.

Speaker 1 Find another team, yeah. We'll tell everyone when they call that you are not terrible.

Speaker 3 I think Tebow's put enough on film where he should be getting calls.

Speaker 3 His shoes were untied when he tripped over his own feet last year.

Speaker 1 You know what? The SEC Network will probably call him and be like, hey, Tim, it's fall again. Are you done with that? Okay, cool.
You're back.

Speaker 3 Do you think he actually rides the bus?

Speaker 1 Maybe. He probably does just because he wants to say that he did.

Speaker 3 Yeah.

Speaker 3 With my guys. I was just one of the fellas.

Speaker 1 Or he takes a hotel, or he takes a flight to the hotel and then takes the bus with the fellas from the hotel to the park. Then, like, rode the bus again.
Yeah. It was tough.
It was a lot of traffic.

Speaker 1 I don't know.

Speaker 1 Daytona.

Speaker 3 I just feel bad because I want to see Tim Tebow in a Major League Baseball game. I think we addressed this, but the Astros should absolutely sign Tim Tebow to just get hit by pitches.

Speaker 3 And no one would want to hit hit Tim Tebow.

Speaker 1 I think people would still want to.

Speaker 3 Do you think they'd bean Tim Tebow?

Speaker 1 Yeah, I think they're going to be beating the jersey, not the people.

Speaker 3 That's a good way to look at it.

Speaker 1 Yeah, they're going to be beating everyone.

Speaker 1 Actually, do you see Carlos Correa just get Carlos Correa got buckled by a not great curveball because he thought it was coming at him? That's going to be in their head all season long.

Speaker 1 It's going to be awesome.

Speaker 3 I'm so excited.

Speaker 1 It's in a sneaky way, Rob Manford.

Speaker 1 I'm going to actually come all the way around and say you did a good job because because you kept the story alive and made people want to watch the Astros for the rest of the year, even if they're not Astros fans.

Speaker 3 I know. It's going to be great.
Like, it turns out that every single pitch looks like a beanball when you're a world-class asshole.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Slash, you don't know what's coming.
Yeah. Yeah.
That's true. That's the key part.
That's the key part that they don't know. You don't hear changes.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 It's a little tough when you don't know the off-speeds coming.

Speaker 1 All right. Last up, I have an idea.
You guys ready for this idea? We're going to be millionaires. I alluded to it at the beginning.
I have have an idea.

Speaker 1 It dawned on me when I was walking on the street, I think on Thursday or Friday, and a guy walked by me, and he had a shirt on that said karate black belt.

Speaker 1 And I was like, fuck, man, that guy, respect.

Speaker 1 He could have totally made it up.

Speaker 3 But is that stolen valor?

Speaker 1 Hold on. I don't think it's stolen valor if you do stuff.
Like, you can't obviously steal valor when it comes to the military. You don't want to do that.
You don't want to be a

Speaker 1 police officer, firefighter. That's stolen valor because those people are putting their lives on the line.

Speaker 3 Well, it's also, you don't want to be in a situation where it's like, is anyone here a police officer? And you're wearing a shirt that's correct. I am a police officer.
You're like, fuck.

Speaker 1 That's stolen valor. But when it comes to hobbies, can you really steal valor of a hobby? So, my idea is, and this is actually where it's not even stolen valor, we are going to start PMT

Speaker 1 karate and sell the shirt. And how about PMT powerlifting? And PMT, I don't know, whatever.
Name anything that is like a cool hobby.

Speaker 1 PMT Rock Climbing.

Speaker 3 You could say like PMT Powerlifting Regional Record Holder

Speaker 3 on your shirt, and no one's ever going to question like what regional record do you have.

Speaker 1 Do you not think that we could sell these?

Speaker 1 PMT Karate Black Belt.

Speaker 1 Like you.

Speaker 1 You got you, according to us, we are the heads of PMT Karate. You listening right now, you have a black belt.
Yeah. So you are not stealing valor.

Speaker 3 You could wear that shirt and you probably won't, unless you get into a fight. No.
In which case.

Speaker 1 No one will fight you. That's the whole point of wearing the shirt.

Speaker 1 People will see. Guys want to be you.
Girls want to be with you when you're wearing a PMT weightlifting shirt.

Speaker 3 As far as I know, having a black belt, the major qualification for that is just knowing not to get into fights. Right.
Being really good at avoiding fights.

Speaker 1 All you have to say, we'll maybe even put an insert like Larry stock with the shirt and be like, if anyone says that they want to fight you, just reply, I actually had to register my hands as weapons, so I do not want to fight you because I'll have to go to jail.

Speaker 3 I always thought that if somebody was wearing like an and one shirt or a really hardcore no-fear shirt that said, like, I don't play well with others, it seems others have a problem with losing, but you weren't a good athlete and you still wore that shirt, that is more stolen valor than dressing up like a fake army person.

Speaker 3 Right. Like, it's like, no, you're not good at sports, dude.
Right. You can't wear that shirt

Speaker 3 when you're good at basketball.

Speaker 1 Yeah, there's nothing better when like people have like, are dressed in like head-to-toe under armor and clearly haven't been to a gym in forever. They're ready to go.

Speaker 1 But don't you think, and it has to be subtle. So we're not going to have it be PMT karate like blazing in the front.
It's going to be on the pocket. It's just going to say PMT karate black belt.

Speaker 3 That's pretty cool. It's like the

Speaker 3 body inspector shirts, too. Yeah.

Speaker 1 How does anyone stop that?

Speaker 3 PMT wallet inspector.

Speaker 1 Well, that is stolen valor for doctors. So gynecologists.
We don't want anyone to think that we are gynecologists.

Speaker 3 PMT gynecology program.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I think we could have a whole line of people. Yeah, we could do like PMT MD.

Speaker 1 Yes, Obgen. Why not? Why not? We are saying that you're just as good as you right now listening.
You're just as good as a doc. You've been on WebMD.
We should actually sell WebMT

Speaker 1 like MD shirts.

Speaker 3 That's good, too. What about like PMT Millionaires Finance Club?

Speaker 1 Yes. Boom.
Yes. There's so many that we can do where we just create these clubs.
Yeah, we create

Speaker 1 these sayings, these shirts, and people can join them and they walk around and everyone's gonna be like holy shit dude that guy's a millionaire PMT astronaut camp yes astronaut training academy yes yes yeah yeah you gotta make it yeah PMT like top John

Speaker 1 Training Program yes cadet cadet graduate yes yes yes so I think this is the future of all of our shirts Bubba we need you to mock these up just lying to people no no it's fine no we are lies are good no this isn't a lie though lies are the way that that you keep your brain creative no this is not a lie, though, because like I said, testing your imagination.

Speaker 1 We started PMT Karate.

Speaker 1 All you have to do is listen to a podcast to get a black belt.

Speaker 3 Congrats. There it is.

Speaker 1 How is that a lie? That's not a lie.

Speaker 1 We got it powerlifting. You watch this show.
You see the clips. We have a bench press right here.
You powerlift every day with us.

Speaker 3 PMT

Speaker 3 Fighter Pilot Training Academy.

Speaker 1 And it's getting close to Stolen Valor. We don't want to get all the way there.

Speaker 3 Well, how come there's no Fighter Pilot Training Academy for people that aren't in the military?

Speaker 1 They just want to

Speaker 1 fight pilots.

Speaker 3 People that are just sick at playing Microsoft Flight Simulator and watch Top Gun too much growing up.

Speaker 1 We could do that.

Speaker 1 We'll workshop it, but look for the new line of clothes that just basically, I mean, we could just call it like the small dick line of clothes because this is pretty much what it is.

Speaker 1 Like if you have a small penis and are overcompensating in different ways, like myself, like that's that's really what you're going for.

Speaker 3 PMT Big Dick Havers Association.

Speaker 1 PMT BMW owners.

Speaker 1 Like that we got this.

Speaker 3 PMT, I star in porn movies.

Speaker 1 Yeah, this is... Listen, guys,

Speaker 1 we got you. We're thinking of you.

Speaker 3 Did you see that pornhub is they're trying to go clean now? What do you mean? They're kind of like the mob.

Speaker 1 Pornhub is now making. The olive oil business is for real?

Speaker 3 Yeah, pornhub is trying to make actual real movies.

Speaker 1 I'm in. If Netflix can, anyone can.

Speaker 3 They just need to put that two-second sound clip

Speaker 3 at the start of any movie, and I'll watch it.

Speaker 1 Well, yeah, because the whole time you're like, when's the fucking gonna end?

Speaker 3 All right, I instinctively click to three-quarters of the way through whatever movie is. I'm in.

Speaker 1 I'm in. All right.

Speaker 1 We'll see everyone on Wednesday. Who do we have on Wednesday? Oh, should we do Damon John? Talk about business ideas.
We fucking have business ideas with him.

Speaker 3 What is it called?

Speaker 1 Power Shift.

Speaker 3 Power Shift. We Power Shift with Damon John.

Speaker 1 Yeah, if you can read the book before Wednesday's show, we go into detail, but Power Shift.

Speaker 3 Love you guys.

Speaker 3 I'll be

Speaker 3 up

Speaker 3 in the day you'll take

Speaker 3 your

Speaker 3 ain't about the lights.

Speaker 3 No, I can't sleep until I feel your heart touch.

Speaker 1 It's Pardon My Take, presented by Barstool Sports.
