Do it right now. Today is Wednesday, October 23rd.
And PFT, I think the Washington Nationals are a team of destiny. I think so, too.
I really do. Tonight was a big game, 5-4.
Juan Soto was out there grabbing his crotch out of respect for everybody. Monster.
Monster Dong. I'm talking about the hit to deep left field.
Monster Dong. Almost a cycle.
Hit it onto the train tracks. The ball's still there.
They're not picking that ball up anytime soon. Astro fans looking like they had seen ghosts, which we'll get to Sam Darnold in a second, but it was to steal one in Houston with Garrett Cole on the mound.
Obviously, you guys had Scherzer, but neither pitcher was great. It was what everyone expected to be a pitcher's duel, and it just didn't happen.
And, yeah, that's got to feel good, especially when you put in Corbin, who so you went game one starter, game three starter, even though he pitched an inning. It felt like the Nationals went all in for this game one, and guess what? It worked.
It paid off. It worked.
Even if we lose tonight, I'm okay going back to D.C. Hell yeah.
1-1, splitting it. We go back.
I mean, Strasburg, we have not seen World Series Strasburg yet, so we're not sure. Do you know what we can say now, PFT, now that the Nationals won game one? They're meant to be here.
No. They belong.
No. I was going to say tomorrow night might be the last game in Houston.
Oh, yeah. There you go.
You can do that. And it was go that and it was on JJ Watt night no less tonight when he came out and he gave a pump-up speech is it Garrett Cole's last game last night in Houston a lot of people are saying Garrett Kershaw I'm not saying it but it was trending yeah in my brain for a while it was and uh yeah I mean he he he was not able to show up in the World Series when it mattered the most uh Scherzer didn't have his best stuff either.
Nope. In the first inning.
Doesn't matter. He got shelled a little bit.
Never really had great command. I think he had like 100 pitches in three and a half innings or something stupid like that.
Doesn't matter. Doesn't matter.
Because guess what? Max Scherzer was plus 170 underdog, and you bet the number, not the team. And Max Scherzer is also 1-0 in the World Series.
True. How about that? True.
You're thought it was going to the over under was six and a half. Shout out Tom for I mean shout out Hank for giving us the tip to bet the over.
Thank you Hank. No problem.
My pleasure. For that bet tonight.
Appreciate that tip. I got you.
You're the man. That's what I'm here for.
It's too early for me to bring the broom in. I'll say that.
I would say so. But I'm going to bring maybe a mini dustpan will come in tomorrow.
Oh, my God. They are a team of destiny, though.
They are. They are a team of destiny.
And the Astros are like America's. Oh, yeah.
The Astros can't do anything right, including their assistant general manager, who looks like a total pud, making a fool of himself. Screaming at women.
And then trying to, like, say he didn he didn't and then putting like the the ultimate apology is to apologize but not apologize and then say that you're a father and then also come back later and say i apologize for my non-apology yeah and i would say dad to dad yeah i don't i disavow as in from in the dad club i disavow that guy big cat you can't pull that as a father of a woman. You can't do that yet.
That's true. So you were sexist until proven otherwise.
That's true. But I am disavowing him from the father club because when you do something like that and then immediately go to, well, I'm a dad, you make us all look bad.
I'm just going to throw this out there. If you're an assistant general manager, your name should never be making headlines for anything true good or bad true that's true you're assistant to the regional manager you don't do anything except scout and do your little fucking line graphs and uh work on spin rate yeah you should be on a spreadsheet in the back office and in the worst lighting possible at all times i'm so excited for this guy to like uh get hired as a gm GM in five years and then have to do the crying press conference

where he says, I'm apologizing and I learn from my mistakes,

but I'm happy that I'm now making $4 million a year.

Probably for the Pirates.

Yeah, that's coming.

He feels like he's going to join the Pirates.

But yeah, so the Astros have become a hated team out of nowhere.

I mean, I like guys on the Astros.

Bregman is a recurring guest.

I have nothing against Verlander, Eric Cole. I like Altuve.
Yeah, short guys stick together. Yeah, of course.
I'm terrified of Altuve whenever he steps up to the plate. Every time he takes a cut, it looks like he's going to hit a yard.
I'm still afraid of him. George Springer's last name rhymes with Dinger.
That's nice. That's fucking cool.
Whenever he hits a Dinger, he's like, Springer Dinger. Springer Dinger.
Yeah, it's very catchy. Sounds cool to say.
I want to say this, though. I'm opening up the Nats bandwagon to everybody.
The Nat wagon is open. If you don't have a dog in the fight, all aboard.
I don't like people shaming DC fans for being Johnny come lately. Because, I mean, first of all, it's not true.
What DC sports fan would all of a sudden start repping the Nationals just because they're winning the playoffs? That doesn't happen. That's number one.
Number two, we're a fun team. We're a very easy team to root for.
Join the Nat Wagon. You guys are all on board with me until proven otherwise.
Until you disavow the Nationals, I'm assuming every person I interact with is a Nationals fan. Why is there a train in the Minute Maid Park? Makes about as much sense as a giant hill in center field.
Yeah, I wish that hill was still there. Me too.
That thing was so cool. The hill and the flagpole that was in play.
Yeah, it was like a double dare course. Yeah, it was just like a drunk man mowed a lawn into a baseball diamond.
So let's just keep it this way. I'll say something nice about the Astros.
I like that Minute Maid Park. You can call it the big juice box.
That is nice. That's fucking cool.
Another nice thing about... Because they juice all their pitchers.
Yes, they do. The spin rate, people aren't talking about that that much.
Trevor Bauer. PFD went full Trevor Bauer on the live stream.
He just started getting mad about the spin rate. Yeah, I was pissed off.
Why does it only happen in Houston? It only happens there. I know it's closer to the equator, but...
You sound like Trevor Bauer, dude, and you're just like, okay, well, he's smart. He's the smartest man in baseball, as we've said many times on this podcast.
I like their diamond... Well, it used to be called Enron Field, so smart job renaming.
Way to get out in front of that one. And I will always remember that home run that Brad Lidge gave up to Albert Pujols that still hasn't landed yet.
That all-time sports sounds, that was basically the one where the scream in horror that you hear in a home crowd losing in a horrific fashion, that happened. It was just silence and then just like two or three people being like, ah! Did I make this up or did it used to be an open air stadium when Albert Pujols hit that home run? Because I feel like they put up windows out in left field to keep balls in because that home run was too emasculated.
I don't know. This is too much about the Astros.
Yeah, it is. Never mind.
Let's talk about the Titans. Big juice box.
All right, so we also had Monday Night Football, Sam Darnold's ghost game. So everything I said on Monday's podcast was wrong.
But, again, you don't bet the teams, that's what sharp people say whenever I'm wrong I just say that people were like hey you're such an idiot you bet the Jets and like hey 10 points in the NFL is a lot of value it is a lot you just said that you bet the you bet the team not the number you bet the number not the team oh Max Scherzer it didn't it didn't I wasn't betting the team, I was betting the number. Yeah, that's what you got to do.
When you're wrong in gambling, if you say that, you're immediately right. So people can be like, hey, right side just turned out wrong.
It was a smart play. But Sam Darnold, go skate.
So now people are mad. The Jets are mad because apparently they didn't.
So how it works, and we've talked to people in the NFL, essentially someone from the communications team, the PR team, sits up there and approves whatever goes out and mic'd up. Apparently, the Jets didn't have anyone there.
So it went through NFL films. But usually there's a Jets.
Someone from the Jets is like, that's good, that's bad, because they essentially don't want to give up any secrets, which what secret could the Jets give up is how we suck um we all know but so they're mad because that went out i think it's actually good for sam darnold because the only explanation for being that bad is you were hallucinating yeah if the field was haunted yeah then that's a perfectly good reason to throw four interceptions in football so and thank you to sam darnold becausearnold because he's pushed Mitch Trubisky's performance down. Has he? A little bit.
Okay. It's just, it's a little bit.
In your brain. It's more the last, last, next man up.
Next quarterback up. The last bad quarterback play that we saw was a guy that was being haunted by ghosts.
Four interceptions. So we're not talking as much about that.
Not, not a good performance, but he also had a toenail removed today. Oh.
So it was the toenail.. So it was the toenail.
It was a combination. You can come back from either being haunted or losing a toenail, but not both.
Yes. Hank, update on is it just a sure thing the Patriots win the Super Bowl? Yeah.
I mean, the Patriots defense is more fun to watch than the offense. Remember who told you about them first? You did.
They played some pretty good teams, too, offensively. So the numbers that they're putting up, these aren't flukes.
Wait, who have they played? Well, the fact that they're putting up their defense is putting up numbers you haven't seen in 100 years, I think, like, corrects the fact that their schedule hasn't been great. Puts more impact on the Buffalo All-Americans name, please.
Right, right. But you don't think that has anything to do with the schedule? It's not like a schedule fluke? That's what it is, is what you're saying? You think that the offenses are so bad because they've played the Patriots? Ah, I get it.
I like that. I think the Patriots are going to walk their way to the Super Bowl, but they do have to play some teams with a pulse coming up, and it will be interesting to see what that looks like.
I would also like to point out Hank actually brought this to my attention earlier but you're right they didn't have the pr people available because it's the jets uh but there was somebody i guess from nfl films that was responsible for dictating what went out and what stayed in house you may recall that we've had conversations on this podcast before about how bill belichick has an inside track at nfl films where he knows people that produce his content for him there. You have to wonder, was this the Patriots leaking something out about the Jets? Ooh, interesting.
It's also, I got to get more information on the rep who's approving these clips. You got to dig deeper.
The Jets, how do you, all right, hey, it's Monday night. We're going to mic up our star quarterback.
We don't have anyone here to approve the clips, but don't worry about it. We trust you guys.
That can't be possible. What this all means is we're never getting a good mic'd up ever again.
This is the end of mic'd up as we know it. All we're going to get is...
What I don't understand, though, is everyone kept on saying, how do they let that out? It's so embarrassing. I don't know.
He's a fucking rookie quarterback playing an unbelievable defense he saw ghosts i don't think that that's embarrassing especially considering the fact that sam darnold was like sam darnold what he is in the nfl is exactly what he was at usc he throws interceptions and if he played that poorly and he wasn't spooked that's that's actually a bigger red flag yeah if he was like cool calm and collected yeah if he, and collected. Yeah, if he was mic'd up, he's like, dude, I got this.

Yeah.

I got this.

Like, I know exactly what they're running, and I got this next possession.

I got to be honest with you guys.

I'm really fucking confused right now, and they're very, very good, and I'm panicking.

Yeah, I actually get that.

Yes.

So it's not as bad as it was made to sound at the time, but it's a good sound bite saying, like, I'm seeing ghosts.

Right.

If anything, Sam Darnold saying exactly what was going on is refreshing because he's his game awareness is a 99 yeah he was so bad he was seeing ghosts so yeah it should be above 100 on madden because he's the only one that can see spirits the ghost joe namus saw spirits a lot yes liquor cabinet belichick's also so entertaining when they go up by like 30 20 points because then that's when he starts doing games and playing mind games, doing the double false start. Did you see him smile at the end of the game? I don't remember a smile that big in a long time.
No. Yeah.
It was like one side of his mouth twitched. When he was like giving a little bit of a high five, he's definitely changed.
You could tell like his mind, he was being like his mind was working and he was like, oh, I like this. I have to think more than usual.
He found a loophole in the NFL play clock system, which says that if you get two penalties declined in a row on you, then you can just restart the clock, essentially run another minute off the clock. Right.
And then he brought it up in the postgame and said, yeah, I did that on purpose. It's a loophole.
I'm pretty sure they're going to close that loophole soon. So that way, he's the only one that will ever be able to exploit it.
Right. And the next person won't.
Right. John Harbaugh somewhere is really pissed off about that.
He's definitely pissed off. All right.
So the other news we had, it's this league is back. This league is back.
Zion was not playing. So that kind of sucked for the first game.
Drake got two rings. Seems a little excessive.
Why two? I don't know. They just gave him two rings.
He's like, give me another. Yeah.
They were different too. And then, of course, the Raptors, I mean, you have to do it, but they had the most expensive slash biggest.
Wow, Paul George is wearing a tuxedo on the sideline. Yeah.
I like that. It looks like a Butler.
I kind of like that too. But yeah, it was the biggest ring or most jewels.
I don't know what the hell. Every ring is the biggest.
It's like quarterback contract. It's also Canadian conversion rate.
So like 200 jewels equals like 180 American jewels. That's absolutely true.
This league, like the most notable thing is the stupid shot clock in the key. That's got to go soon.
It's got to be like the ESPN Monday night. We as a community of sports fans need to come together and get the NBA to get rid of this shot clock.
It reminds me of a Jock and Jams game. Was that what it was called on MTV? Rock and Jock.
Rock and Jock. Rock and Jock? Rock and Jock game where Nelly would store 30 points a game.
Yes, Bill Bellamy. They'd have the five-point shot, like a circle on the court.
That's what it reminds me of. We need to get that out of here.
I'm also a fan. Also the Bleach Report logo.
Lose that. I'm also a fan of the Clippers' baseline, their new logo.
It's like all black and they basically. I hate it.
No, because they essentially just made a baseline logo of Kawhi's brain. It looks like computer codes.
So I like that they're kind of... Did you see the Kawhi Terminator? It was great.
Is Kawhi funny? Yeah, well, I think he found the one role he was born to play. He's a method actor.
Just make fun of his own laugh. Yeah, he's like Joaquin Phoenix for a very particular type of role.
If he can play a robot or a computer programmer who programs a robot, then he can nail it. Thank God they didn't have T-1000.

Right, because he's playing a robot that has enough personality to think that might be

a human.

Right, which is his perfect role.

Thank God they didn't have T-1000 in there because I would have nightmares all over again.

That guy is so scary.

Let's do Hot Seat, Cool Throne, then let's get to Joe Buck.

Oh, if you want to watch us, we're on BarstoolGold.com slash PMT.

You can watch every single podcast we do.

BarstoolGold.com slash PMT.

We're going to episodes every single month. Watch every single episode the next day.
Hank and Joe Buck in studio. You can see his beautiful hair.
Yeah, he looks good. Beautiful hair.
All natural. Hank.
My hot seat is the Arizona Cardinals. So on Sunday, they had David Johnson.
They gave him the first snap, and then they basically gave all the rest of their handoffs to Chase Edmonds. This is a fantasy thing, isn't it? Matthew Barry.
Did you guys see this? Matthew Barry went off. He's got mad.
He snapped. He snapped.
He went big mad because the Cardinals Twitter account did like a little meme-y, like funny all caps, like one of those little like raccoons holding a picket fence that was like, should have started Edmonds.

And Matthew Barry went off saying it was like disinformation.

You can't say this.

If you have this information beforehand, you have to tell people.

Really standing for all the David Johnson owners out there. This is Matthew Barry's personal Mueller report.

He's going to put together about the Arizona Cardinals not giving the ball.

Did you just call a meme a meme-y?

Yeah, that's Jim Nance. Remember when he said that in the Final Four? He said a meme.
Okay. I'll buy it.
Yeah. But yeah, they're in the hot seat.
I mean, I'm sure they're social media guys probably like, oops. Hank, speaking of.
I mean, you never want to get tripped. Matthew Barry of all people.
Yeah, true. Him going nuclear on you, that's a bad sign.
You don't want to see Matthew Barry when he's angry. No.
That's definitely true. Everyone says that around Bristol.
A sweaty man. Hank, you have a fantasy football podcast.
Yes. That's why you brought this up.
No. You can plug it.
It's not. Fantasy Powerhouse.
Fantasy Football Factory on iTunes. Yep.
You guys are actually in the first place. Nobody cares about your fantasy team.
Especially not us. And we didn't even start OBJ.
We started OBJ on the bye week. So shout out to us for drafting a team and then never looking at it.
Consistency. Yes.
You put the same guys out there every week. You let them gel for a while.
Right. We are hands-off coaches.
We do not want to get in the way of our team chemistry. So if that means starting a guy who has a bye week, so be it.
That's fine. So be it.
Get him extra reps. OBJ needs it.
6-1. Yeah.
All right. And then my cool throw-in is Kevin Durant when he plays in Boston.
Okay. The Massachusetts bill is up for a hearing today that would make saying the B word a finable offense.
Whoa. Really? Isn't that against freedom of speech? Burgers? What if you're talking about a dog? A female dog.
Bitch. Bitch.
Damn. I think that there was, it was like the whole, it's a bill, so it's written out with long words but like it's the way it's the way the way you say it if you say it you didn't click on it the way that seems like an insult no I mean there's some terminology there's some terminology there in long words there's a lot of words you don't want to get in a sentence battle no it's like you know like all like medieval times writing like if a person definitely not whereas directed yeah hank's here to where as and he runs away from his computer yeah what was the straw that broke the camel's back when it came to like outlawing the b-word in boston i'm guessing the guy who probably got called a bitch yeah like he's probably like walking the streams like get out of the way bitch and he's like i'm a governor i can i can do something about this yes some yes some someone like uh or he like took the the governor whoever the lawmaker is someone took his parking spot in like a garage and was like what are you gonna do about it bitch and he's like uh i'll show you i'm gonna make a law that's how i'm gonna beat you it's like basically the final level of my dad's a lawyer it's super petty yeah it's petty wars yeah okay good good job Hank good job Hank that was awesome great job thanks guys yeah and congrats on the fantasy football oh I thought you were going to congratulate me on the Washington National how do you think our team will do if we never update it playoff maybe playoff I mean you're in first at this point of the season but we need some injury luck and maybe some bi-week luck.
Yep, that's fine. Okay, PFC, go ahead.
But I will say this. We're not going to bench anybody on their next bi-week.
Unless we have like three guys on buzz. Nah, I don't even think we've got to do that.
Probably not. We'll just coast to the championship.
My hot seat is horny World Series fans. Uh-oh.
So this is actually a legitimate hot seat because... I thought he can't leave Florida.
You son of a bitch. Hank! Hank! Hank! You son of a bitch.
Apologize, Hank. What were you saying? Apologize, Hank.
Why do you care if he's horny? Apologize, Hank. What would he be horny about? He's probably really horny because he hasn't had sex in a long, long time, especially not last week.
Right. Right.
I forgot. I forgot he even went with.
Do you think he looks through his pictures when he gets horny? Okay. I'm kicking over to Big Cat.
I'm done with Hot Seat Cool Throne. I'm going to save it for next week.
And there were really good ones, too. Okay.
Okay. It sucks that you guys are sacrificing the quality of this show for personal digs at your co-host Paris.
Give us a cool throne. Give us a cool throne.
Taco Bell. Ooh, yes.
Because steal a base, steal a taco. Trey Turner with his little sliding mittens.
I still don't understand why you wear the sliding mittens. No.
They look cool. I think it's fingers, breaking fingers.
Yeah, it's a millennial thing. Yeah.
Didn't see any of the old guys do that back in the day. But he stole what's up? It was right away.
Yeah, first base run of the game. Lead-off hitter, Trey Turner gets on, steals second base.
Everybody in America gets a taco, but this is how they get you, those rat bastards at Taco Bell. You have to wait until October 30th, when everybody's already forgotten that they want a taco, to claim your free taco.
So it's a free Doritos Loco Taco. And I'm going to get one.
I don't care how long I have to wait in line. It's a free taco.
Got it. Free is free.
Utterly magical. Got to load up on some other stuff too.
Yeah. Stop tacos.
Nope. Just my one taco.
Mexican pizza. Everything.
It's so wonderful to stand and say, I will have one taco, please. And then somebody hands you a taco and you walk away.
You don't have to pay them any money. I'm going to absolutely go for that.
Hell yes, absolutely. All right, my hot seat is Matt Nagy's psyche.
So he's cracking. He's losing his mind.
I don't know if this was this week or it might have been last week, but he had the Bears throwing egg toss in practice. So that screams like, hey, I'm just trying to do one of those fun games that you do in training camp, but it's the middle of the season.
And yikes. And then he also told all the players to stay off Twitter.
For no reason whatsoever. Don't listen to the media and don't let them divide you.
Don't talk to anybody except for your coaches. He actually said the only thing you should be on Twitter for is to wish them happy birthday.
which i don't know whoever's birthday is wish birthday havers happy just what instagram's good though instagram probably good because you can just slide in the dms but uh yeah he doesn't want anyone on twitter which is again a that's like a college football coach move yeah um the yeah so the egg thing puzzles me it's so the egg the egg toss was that just to like build camaraderie amongst the team or was it because like uh Mitch Trubisky is so bad at throwing passes could be that you're going to have to learn how to catch like an uncooked egg yes if you want to catch one of his seven yard outs yeah start doing the Jerry Rice brick drill yeah that's what we need catch anything except for a football. He also said in his press conference, I know we need to run the ball.
I'm not an idiot. If you have to say I'm not an idiot, you might be an idiot.
At any point in life, really. It's like the Jim Caldwell when he had to do a press conference and say that he's still alive.
Yeah. You're dead.
If at any point you have to just beg and plead to inform people that you're not short, you're probably short.

Yes. Yes.
All right. And then my cool throne is booing.
So I was mad about the Josh Allen booing. Bills fans said they were not booing Josh Allen.
They were just booing the offense in general. Yeah.
Fair. But booing is back in a big way this week because we had two big boos on Tuesday night.
One, Kawhi, introducing Kawhi to the Clippers fans, which were just half Lakers fans.

Hello, world.

They booed him in his home stadium, his home arena.

Yeah, hello, world.

Kind of tough when everyone's like, it's a Clippers town now.

And then Kawhi gets booed.

So at these games, at a Clippers game, where they're playing the Lakers, they're hosting the Lakers. Correct.akers as a whole team, you still think the crowd is, what, 70% Lakers fans? It looks like 50-50.
Okay. Yeah.
We haven't seen Balmer yet. Balmer's probably wearing a Lakers jersey.
I would imagine that he is. He's like, AD and LeBron, how could you not? Okay, so that was one of the – the first boo.
First boo. Okay, second boo.
Second boo was at the Blackhawks game tonight. A six-year-old was on the Jumbotron in between periods, and the in-game announcer asked who he's going to be for Halloween, and he said Mitch Trubisky, and then he got lustily booed.
That's very scary, though. It's a very scary costume.
Yeah, so, yeah, booing's back. Booing six-year-olds.
That's, I got to say, that's a Philly move, and I like it. The Chiladelphia Eagles are even closer to being a real thing.
Philly got swagger jacked big time on that. Also, the booing of pickoff moves to first base.
Yes. I love the booing of the pickoff moves to first base.
Even on the first one tonight that Scherzer threw over there, he threw his little lob over to first base, didn't get him by a mile. And everybody in the stadium just started booing him immediately.

I don't think anybody knows why you boo a pickoff move.

Annoyance.

Just general annoyance.

But I think you just boo because the person next to you is booing.

Right.

And then, therefore, you have to boo.

Boos are contagious.

They're like yawns.

Yeah.

They are absolutely contagious.

Boo.

If you're a writer for Slate, a good article would be why booing is problematic and leads to fascism. Boo! I like that Slate article.
That's definitely coming to a Slate near you. Yeah.
The booing actually proves that we are a fascist state. Yep.
Actually, wouldn't it be the opposite? You can't boo in a fascist state. You can boo certain people.
No, you can only cheer. No, you can boo certain people in a fascist state.
You can't boo your leaders. Right.
You can't object to authority. But when it's the opponent, you are definitely allowed to boo.
True. Okay.
Let's get to our interview with Joe Buck. Awesome one.
We talked to everything. We taped this last week, so it was in between.
It was actually the rain delay game of the Yankees Nationals. So we had to correct him a couple – or the Yankees Astros.
So we had to correct him a couple times, remind him that we're talking about the World Series. But we predicted it correct.
Yeah, we did. And so it's a great interview.

Here he is. Joe Buck.
Ready, Hank? All right, three, two, one. They don't seem excited.
Oh, go ahead. We're going.
Do they need more energy from that? I don't know. We've been waiting for so long.
Yeah, I know. That's the city of New York's fault.
Let's get started. Joe Buck showed up 20 minutes late.
We got Hollywood Joe rolling in here. Can I get a vanilla skim latte? I walked.
The opposite of cough in time. I walked for you guys.
How long? How many blocks? Like a good 10 minutes. Shit.
When Joe Buck's walking down the street in New York, how often does Joe Buck get stopped? I didn't get stopped one time down here. Not one time.
Is that a problem? Are you concerned? I'm actually emotionally scarred from a 10-minute walk. Yes.
Yankee fans hate you. I also should start.
So, I mean, we have Joe Buck in studio. You know what? Everybody hates me.
Yeah. I want to get to that.
Okay. I got some tweets for you.
No, I don't. Yeah, no, no, no.
Yes, we are. We're going to do the tweets.
Fucking tweets. Joe Buck is here.
Recurring guest Hall of Famer. It's been a while.
It's been probably six months. I'll say this right off the top.
Your hair looks great. Thanks.
Even though it's not yours. Correct.
It looks great. It is mine.
It's just repositioned. Yeah.
Well, not from my neck. Is it your ass hair? My neck.
It's your ass hair? It's that straight neck hair. Yeah.
That's what Urlacher did, right? Yeah. No, his was his back, I think.
Yeah. His back, very lower back.
No, this is like, we've talked about this. It looks good.
Have you not read my book, for God's sake? You son of a bitch. It's like from the, most men keep their bishop's crown, they call it, like around the sides.
Okay. So that's where they get the healthy hair from.
And then they put it up front. It's a barbaric, horrific, horrible procedure with a guy talking to you while, by the way, not only do they cut a huge strip of your living, healthy hair out of the back of your head, but in order to make that happen, they have to inject Novocaine into your head.
And I'm telling you, until you've heard the sound from inside of a needle going into your head over and over,

and you can actually hear the fluid coming out of the needle into your scalp.

What the fuck, man?

It's awful.

I have heard that.

One time I had to get Novocaine in my eyebrows when I was getting my nose rebroken back into place,

and when they shot it in there, you could hear the Novocaine.

It's unbelievable.

It's like the weirdest sound.

It sucks.

It does suck.

No, this podcast sucks.

This podcast is awful right now.

The only thing worse than getting so novocaine in your brain is talking about change the subject what's the next plastic surgery that you're gonna get you already did the nose i have done nothing the botox i have done the only botox i got was in the back of my head for migraines so i've not migraines from what was in the back of my head sounds like hey guys he got a nose surgery because he was snoring at night wait okay so so i've been nothing but open and honest and i'm telling you that i've gotten whatever it is botox in the back of my head that relieves the the it loosens or deadens the muscle back there so you don't get migraines that come over the top of your head. It works.
Spotulism. They just put poison into your head.
Right. So that might explain a lot, but that's it.
I've had that, and I've had the hair plugs. Lipo? Lipo.
If I had lipo, I'd look a hell of a lot better. You look good.
You bench? Yeah, but it's... Do you gets worse as you go down but do you bench like a lava flow go ahead tell me your bench i don't really bench you're more of like a resistance band guy now yeah it's all about pliability yes exactly i'm going on the tb12 pliability thing we've finally like life hacked a way to never have to live lift heavy weights by saying well it bad for you.
Right. You need to just use bands.
So I'm kind of going between the blue and the red bands these days. If I'm feeling really rested, I'll go to the blue bands.
What kind of music are you listening to these days? Can I guess? Yeah. I'm sure you're going to give me credit right off the top.
No, Bruce. You're probably a Bruce guy.

I'm not.

Pearl Jam.

I'm not an anti-Bruce guy.

It's never spoken to me like the real core Bruce people.

That's not me.

You too?

No.

Audio slave.

Back in the day.

Back in the... Yeah.

Yeah.

I think that's what he is.

Like a Pearl Jam, audio slave.

Do you do any Queens of the Stone Age?

No.

Not enough. They were on our Super Bowl intro video that brought the team out.
I don't remember which Super Bowl. Are you doing the Super Bowl this year? We have the Super Bowl this year, yeah.
Ooh, okay. And the World Series.
Oh, are you going to do the thing on Sunday in Washington where you go to a Redskins game and then you, well, there's no real public transportation to take you from Rauld John. You get in a cab around the Beltway and it takes you like two hours to get to the World Series game.
He's doing Denver tomorrow night, Kansas City. Oh, okay.
Yeah. That's going to be good.
How about that? So how do you, in a serious question, because I know we have fun here, but is it hard to switch your brain from football to baseball and then back and forth no it's good for my brain it's good for my brain to kind of stay on my toes and i you know yesterday i was at yankee stadium getting ready for the yankees and astros and i was reading clips about the broncos and chiefs and then you go back and it kind of keeps for some reason it keeps me more loose instead of just being like down one narrow hallway,

just all in.

I think that makes you boring.

What about when you finish the Broncos-Chiefs game?

Are you going to watch game three, four

of the Yankees-Astros game?

No, I think it's going on at the same time.

But I'm saying like afterwards.

Will I go back on the way back to New York?

Will I watch it?

To know the flow of what happened? No. Really? no i i think coverage of these games is so good now that it's different than when i started i mean i i can read a handful of articles on the way back or read whatever they post right after the game and i'm good i'm i'm ready and i've you know i've seen every ball game every pitch to this point so So I kind of know where these two managers are thinking.
And then we'll see how for the Astros. I don't know when this posts.
Does this ever go up? No. The mics aren't even on.
Okay. Fake studio.
They want to start Brad Peacock most likely in a bullpen day. And the Yankees are another bullpen day.
So that's just kind of how do they piece that all together,

and then it gets back to normal by the time I show back up for game five.

You're back at Tanaka and Granke.

Yeah, so we're actually going to probably air this next Wednesday

right after game one of the World Series.

Well, this will be so topical.

No, well, so tell us how do you like the Astros versus Nats?

Who do you like in that series? Who says the Astros move on? I mean, they're going to move on. I mean, this is Wednesday.
It's weird for you to have just called game one of the World Series and not realize who's playing in it. No, that's true.
Yeah, so Astros-Nats. I'm just confused.
Do you think the Astros can battle back from going down 1-0 in the World Series? Yeah, I like their chances. Tonight? Strasburg's going on the mound, though.
Is that so? Yeah, best postseason ERA of all time, I think. Is that right? Yeah, it's going to be tough.
Well, there you go. Yeah, I think they'll battle back.
Okay. Can I give you a tip for when the Nats win the World Series? Like the sign-off, your signature sign-off call? Yabo.

Yabo. Oh, yeah.
You still haven't given them a Yabo.

That's tough. Here it is.
You ready?

And the Houston Astros can

suck on these Nats. Nice.

And we'll see you tomorrow night.

And then just add that in there.

I'm not going to see anybody tomorrow night.

That can't be my signature call.

Fox will get more ratings the next night because they'll turn their TVs on and be like, Joe Buck said he was going to be here. That's very true.
And he wouldn't lie to me. No, yeah.
No, let me chew on that because I've got days to kind of think about that. Suck on these gnats.
Just think about it. If I repeat it enough during this interview, it'll just like seep into your subconscious.
I have a feeling you will. Are you worried at all, Joe, that you don't care too much about not caring? I don't.
I can't. You care too much about not caring.
You don't care, but you tell everyone you don't care. No, you don't care.
You don't care about the haters. I don't care about the haters.
Right, but so much so that you care an unhealthy amount about not caring. I think I got that right.
I understand it. Yeah.
You do? Yeah. So it's one of these things that.
But you're saying so in essence you're saying I should care. No, you do care.
If you really didn't care about the haters, you would care about some of the haters. Right.
But I only get kind of questioned about the haters when I show up here. Yeah.
And every other show that you've done because you're a whore. Right.
Well, I am that. That's a fair point.
Yeah. But it's not like I go home and my wife's like, hey.
The haters? How about the haters? I'm like, oh, babe, I don't care. I don't care.
Yes, you do. I think you obsess about.
Yes, mom, what about the haters? I think you obsess about not caring so much that you care too much now. Like, you're like, I don't care.
Possibly. Well, I have to put that up.
I have to put up my guard. And, again, I do this every time I'm with you guys because I'm here for fun.
I'm here for you. I'm Play-Doh in your hands.
Very valuable. But when I answer a question, huh? Very pliable.
Very pliable. When I answer your question seriously, I feel like it gets really boring.
No. So I'm sorry.
We are a little bit curious about this thing because there's a difference between a hater and someone that's giving constructive criticism. What about Josh Hater? Right? Ooh.
Well, he's a bill hater. What about when he pitches? Am I allowed to say hater? No, it's problematic.
No, just Josh. How about this guy? If you listen closely, you can hear Joe Buck unzip his pants every time Altuve comes to the plate.
Yeah, I mean, that's exactly it. It's a fair point.
Could you hear that on the broadcast? No, our mics are way better than that and more directional, so that would be below the desk. Get ready for Joe Buck to blow Verlander for an hour.
When it comes to Altuve, it's like, oh, you talk too much about the other team. Altuve is a great Joe Buck name, though.
Why don't you talk just about my team? What's your favorite name to say? Altuve. Yeah.
Bumgarner. Bumgarner, Bumgarner, Bumgarner.
Give me an El Tuve again. It's like Beetlejuice.
I just keep saying it over and over. Everybody in Kansas City, their eyes roll back in there.
Bumgarner, Bumgarner. See, that's because you hate the Royals.
Uh-huh. Yeah, which makes no sense.
We got robbed, though, of Cardinals-Yankees to have the Yankee fans just lose their mind. Yeah, well.
Lose their mind. Whatever.
I've done Cardinals-Mets. Yeah.
Yeah, they would lose their mind. But again their mind i've done cardinals mets yeah uh yeah they would lose their mind but but again i mean that those those tweets like is that is that creative is that good i mean if it's gonna be a rip like pick a good one the unzip your pants a lot of yeah a lot of we get it joe buck you want to suck off cole and altuve what a lot of lot of people are just really.
Because their team's losing. Do you understand that whole thing? People get mad.
They get mad at the guy because all year long they listen to their hometown guys. It's like, this is the greatest team ever assembled.
A home run. And then when the other team hits one, the guy goes, oh, it's a home run in the left, and now the Yankees are trailing 4-3.
So then I do it, and I have to get excited. It sounds like I'm unzipping my pants.
Right. Which you did.
Which I did. This one's actually creative.
This side. Yeah, good.
Get your Joe Buck mute button ready, folks. Here it comes.
And then he took a picture of his remote control. Man.
That's legit. And it's still blurry.
Look at that. That's pretty funny.
Neither objects in the picture are in focus. Yeah.
He took some time crafting that tweet, though. Yeah, he did.
Oh, wait, no. I didn't even open it.
Oh, that's even better. He put Joe Buck on there.
He photoshopped Joe Buck onto the mute button. He doesn't like my team.
That's incredible. What would be even better is if he printed out a tiny label and he put the Joe Buck button on his his remote that's who i that's who i'm answering to actually on my 10 minute walk here i was looking at the faces of the people that were walking around and i'm thinking you know one of those guys probably tweeted something nasty about me last correct and then i you know i kind of followed one or two of them after they went you know a block away from me and i thought i really don't care.
That's not somebody that I actually ducked to get out of the way of that person. Actually stalking them for two blocks.
Correct. You're like, you know what? Why is the guy walking around going, why is Joe Buck following? He's a hater.
If you did that one time, though, if you actually followed around a hater and stalked him. Paul Rudd and I, name drop, were going to do a thing, although everybody loves Paul, where we find five of the nastiest people on Twitter who just kill us and go to their house.
And beat them to death. No, and spend the day with them.
Go bowling with them. Go out to a bar.
Maybe a hot air balloon ride. Yeah, whatever.
Maybe some skim vanillaim vanilla latte maybe a skim vanilla latte you just sit around and kibitz yeah get to know each other and then all of a sudden it's like hey you know what he's a nice good fun loving guy it would suck though because like paul rudd is so likable if you guys both went to the person's house and then they just fell in love love with Paul Rudd and they still hated you. You're so lovable, Paul.
By the way, didn't even mention it. Congrats on the Blues.
Should have said that. The one team you're actually allowed to root for.
And I'm allowed to, and I actually do. It's the only team I root for.
Yes, we should have started with that. Congrats on the Blues.
And I got it. To go back to, you know, obviously the guy, Kenny Albert, is the most likable, lovable human walking the planet.
Doc Emmerich, unbelievable announcer. But when you get to the finals, and it's kind of equal love for both sides, and it's not your hometown guys, it pisses you off.
And I'm sitting there going, I want to hear John Kelly and Darren Pang do this game. these guys hate the blues it's all they're all bought and then i'm like oh wait a minute now i'm doing exactly i've become what i have become what i detest yeah you put the kenny albert button on your remote control right and then i send him a picture like hey buddy no yeah are you take a picture of his head right his kenny albert's head his and my head work perfect for your whole thing.
Yes. I can hear Kenny Albert un-Velcro his pants.
He doesn't have a seat. He can't be trusted.
For Kredgy. Yes.
Exactly. Go ahead.
No, I was going to say, just congrats. I like it when you two fight over the mic.
No, no. It's just congrats.
No, you two. I wanted to be nice.
You peed in your bottles recently on the air? I have not. Nope.
That's a one and done. Nah.
That's a one and done. That was just because it was a Packer game at Milwaukee County Stadium the last time they played a home game.
It's hard to believe that back for a long time they played one home game in Milwaukee. And they did, and we did the last game.
And because the booth was where it was, the bathroom bathroom was where it was you couldn't get there physically to pee in the bathroom so i had to take literally matters into my own hands and a little on yourself yeah a little bit on the bottle here's something i've always wondered off the bottle about an announcer trash can do you have a backup plan when there's a blowout because that braves cardinals game game, where they put up a 10 spot in the first inning, the first thing I thought of is these guys are fucked because they're going to have to do nine innings that no one cares about. The game's already been decided.
So do you have like a, this is a breaking case of emergency, Joe Buck story time? I mean, you always have loads of crap to talk about. It's really the good games where you don't end up talking about really any of it because the game is you know like last night and please tweet at that tweeter who said that i said garrett cole's game too many times while he pitched seven shutout innings of of no yeah sorry yeah last week yeah while he pitched game three of the ALCS way back when and see if it's okay if I bring it up.

But – No. Sorry, yeah, last week.
Yeah. While he pitched game three of the ALCS way back when and see if it's okay if I bring it up.
But I could talk through that whole thing if I wanted to about Cole and his history or Altuve and Springer or, you know, whoever. Gleyber Torres and all these guys.
Was that guy mad when I was talking about Gleyber Torres throughout the entire game one? Probably not. Of the ALCS a couple of weeks ago? Yeah, probably not.
Probably not. You can do that all day long.
That's kind of how I'm trained. I did radio forever.
So it's really a matter of restraint when you do a really tight, good game. When the game's bad, that's kind of when you go into all the stuff you store up, you know, getting ready for the series.
I could talk for four hours on that stuff. I just choose not to because, A, it's boring, and B, it's irrelevant because it's all history and you're watching something that is fantastic.
Do you ever have stories that Troy told you off air that you're like, I'm going to try to get this out of him? Oh, yeah. That's the part of being friends with's the part of you know last sunday or when this airs two sundays ago in houston playing golf with smoltz and the astros owner jim crane and and being around that and and talking to smoltz about something he might bring up in the golf cart or whatever that that's about building a relationship that i think comes out eventually on the air so troy and i are great friends john and i are great friends i was with tim although the mccarver but the relationship was different because he was older than me but you know that that's when your friendship i think comes out and that's when it can kind of get interesting yeah who do you like better troy or john smoltz i've spent a lot more time with troy uh we've been i think in the same booth for 18 years.
I've been with lot more time with Troy.

We've been, I think, in the same booth for 18 years.

I've been with John for three.

Do you ever accidentally call one the other?

No, but I called Aaron Andrews Pam Oliver one time. Damn.

Could you?

I know.

Exactly.

You know, that's kind of the world I live in, and it sucks.

I think when I go back and I YouTube, the other day I have one-and-a-half-year-old twin boys, as we've talked about. You and I have.
Sorry, PFT. One boy.
You have two. You don't have five kids.
No, I know. I'm saying I talked about it with him.
With me. You're right.
I don't have kids. You have't think I had sex.
I have four. You have four.
My oldest was actually on the website here with the good fine folks at Barstool back in the day. Well, you shouldn't have given her such good tickets to the Cardinals game.
Oh, you do know exactly what it was. Okay.
You're like, oh, whoops. Oh, did that happen? Oh, maybe you shouldn't have given her good tickets.
Yeah. Got it.
Put her in a box next time, Joe. I know.
Just tuck her away. Tuck her away.
I have no idea what the hell I'm talking about. You're talking about relationships with these different announcers.
And I don't know. I don't know where I was going with that stuff.
You were saying, like, you've worked with Troy for so long, so you'd be afraid. Also, Troy's bigger, so he'd kick your ass.
Yeah, I mess with Troy. Yeah.
Oh, yeah. And so, yeah, I did call Aaron Pam.
But the point is, where I was going with it all, is there's like this desire to be perfect when you do these games every night. And I think that makes you or anybody trying to be perfect really boring so you have to kind of free wheel sometimes and you have to have fun and you have to and when you don't you know like i was saying i have these twin boys who are on youtube and i my mom was there and i said let's go back and listen to me do the world series in 96 when i was 27 narcissistic much totallyistic much? Totally.
Hey, one-and-a-half-year-olds who have the attention span of an aunt. The baby Joy Joy took a backseat at that point.
Let's listen to Daddy call a baseball game 25 years ago. It was really for Joey and my mommy.
And I went back, and I listened to 96, and I was like, I sound so much. And I was 27 and in some level scared out of my mind to call a World Series at Yankee Stadium.
But I was way more confident at 27 doing my first World Series with just kind of being me than I am in 2000-whatever, take last year in my 21st World Series because I'm more measured. Because you feel like everybody's out there waiting for you to misstep.
And that leads to just a horseshit broadcast, I think. I really do.
Yeah, no, I agree. If you could be more loose and you could be yourself and you could now, A, it takes your bosses to put their Twitter down.
B, it takes a lot of confidence. You know, Barkley seems to be the only guy who legitimately doesn't care what anybody thinks or says about him.
I'd agree with that. And I think the rest of us all say we don't, to get back to what you were saying earlier.
And we all really kind of do, because it's not worth me having a real opinion on something that you see, because you're going to be answering for it for the next two weeks on social media or on a show like this or whatever. So you just kind of put your time in.
You do the game. You do it to the best of your abilities, and then you'll walk away and go back to the hotel and go to bed.
And it sucks because the guys back in the day, my dad like harry carrie like you know even ernie harwell and bob prince and all these classic voices just said whatever the hell came into their minds and everybody's like oh my god that was the halcyon days of broadcasting well it was also the halcyon days where they could kind of really do what they wanted and if somebody didn't it, they had to sit down and actually put pen to paper and send it into a team or a radio station and complain. And nobody ever read those and they never saw it.
So it's just a function of kind of the times we live in. And you have to be so frigging measured with everything you say because everybody's so ready to get pissed off.
It's true. And a mistake everyone's a commentator so like on twitter i have almost deputized myself as as big cat as commentators on the commentators so we'll have which i think is great yeah wonderful for you it's kind of like their jack phone yeah it is oh there we go you know you know why you know what that is and we know what i'm about to do.
Why do you have three different phones? That's weird, Joe. Yeah, I know.
Calls for you. Well, uh.
Is everyone? Who's that, Troy? You know what it is? It's my alarm to tell me that I'm supposed to be getting on a conference call with the Denver Broncos, but I'm not going to do it because I'm here with you guys. You're blowing John Elway off? Ooh.
Vic Fangio. John Elway, Vic Fangio.
Uncle Vic. Uncle Vic is not going to hear from me today.
I wanted to actually, I was wondering that. Who is your favorite coach to talk to in the NFL? And we're talking, obviously, Joe and Troy go talk to these coaches and these teams before the broadcast trying to get some stories.
Who's the most open? The most open, miraculously, at least from the guys we've talked to this year, is Matt LaFleur of the Green Bay Packers. I believe that.
He doesn't know any better yet. Yeah, I know.
He hasn't been burned yet by one of these guys. And he also is like, we actually had him on the show.
I like him. I don't like him because I like Packers, but he also has that, like, he's kind of a pretty boy, so he can just get away.
He can smile and get away. You know, I know.
You don't actually know because you're not a pretty boy. Exactly.
But you know what you're saying. I'm talking to you.
I'm not talking about Matt or to Matt. I know.
You know. Yes.
And I know that you know and I understand what you're saying. It's a mouthful.
That's a good answer. But, yeah, Matt LaFleur, I thought he would be really guarded first time.
You've got all the dynamic of Aaron Rodgers and how are they getting along. And he talks to us they were even playing the Cowboys and you know sometimes these coaches get a little iffy or shaky about talking to Troy and revealing anything because they think Troy's like living at the Dallas practice facility and gonna go run back and if you do that one time yes you're done I mean you'll never get another piece of information the rest of your career so you just can't but yeah matt lafleur of the new people is easily the most open what about belichick because everyone always says that he's uh he's a very funny guy and they always say that if you ask the right questions he'll open up to you are you able to ask him those right questions the right questions yeah as long as none of those questions pertain to that week's game he'll sit there for two hours he's great uh he wants to talk to me about baseball he wants to talk to me about tony la russa uh who he's friends with he wants to talk to me about he'll talk to you about the history of the running game he'll talk to you about the history of the 3-4 defense but if you start going into okay well this week you guys play whoever, Kansas City, it just gets back into he's very protected.
So what happens now is when we do a Packer game, Troy talks to Bill. Bill tells him everything, and then Troy kind of filters that information back to us.
And Bill knows he's doing that, but I think Bill just feels more comfortable when it's a one-on-one conversation with somebody that he has a lot of respect for. Yeah.
And it's worked out way better that way, and it's one less call or meeting I have to be a part of. Do you have anything reversed? Does anyone trust you more than anyone else? Or they're like, you know what, I'm going to go out.
Not in the the world of football but i i think in baseball yeah i i still have some friends in the game but i do so few games these days that everybody is is you know they see me and they've seen me do a bunch of games on tv but they don't really know me they don't know you know what i'm about so you know aj hinch is great aaron boone's great because aaron boone used to be standing in the lines with us. Well, you know, we'd go in to talk to the manager in a World Series, and then the ESPN radio guys would go in to talk to him.
So we're all – I talk to him more maybe than anybody. And he grew up in the game, and I grew up in the game.
His dad did it. My dad did what I do.
So it's – yeah, we had a lot in common. What about gambling? Have you had to learn more about gambling as it's become like more I mean I knew plenty about gambling because of my degenerate father who who was a big horse guy who was a big uh I mean at the end of his life my dad what kept him I think breathing sometimes was figuring out what the line was on the nfl game and putting getting money down

on it yeah that sounds i mean i can i can believe that yeah that's how he went what i want that's how he went that's what i want and so it's always kind of been back there but thankfully i i didn't get the bug really um i know that's not going to surprise either one of you too but i i don't go down that path but i i talked about it in our seminar this year you know now that laws have changed and Fox is kind of getting into that business.

Are you good bosses with me referencing the line and i don't think it has to be kind of the cutesy all the time yeah hey uh there are wink wink a lot of people wondering if this field goal is gonna go through and this game is over. Yeah, yeah, yeah, can i think you can and i did in the patriots game you know the giants came in as a 16 and a half point underdog and they were hanging in hanging in hanging in and then eventually the the patriots you know blew them up that's going to be i mean you you would imagine that in a few years that will be a very open dialogue on the broadcast.
I think. That's like, you know, half the time when there's a blowout, people are just watching for that.
They're watching for that, and they're watching for fantasy football. Yeah.
And, you know, it's all kind of in the same category, but you're right. They're not really worried about if, you know, back when I was young, certainly way before you guys, if the game was a blowout, it's like, eh, next.
Right. And I think there's so many individual reasons to watch now that people still watch.
And I could see, and I'm not versed on all this stuff, but I could see where they would have, I don't know, in golf, what are the odds of Rory McIlroy hitting the green at, you know, Sawgrass on 17. He's got, you know, whatever.
It's 10 to 1 here. And you can just on your phone oh yeah get down on that bet and i think tv networks eventually are gonna pop that stuff up or it'll be a separate feed or whatever it'll be i i don't know where it's going but i mean literally the surface is not even being scratched by the way you made up with our guy brooks speaking of golf oh we never had it.
We talked to Brooks and there was beef. He was playing it.
I talked to him the next day. It was beef.
It was cooked beef. He didn't care.
He laughed. He was still a little bit tender.
I don't really consider. I know him well enough to know that I don't know that he's really tender.
Brooks doesn't get tender about i don't think so we laughed about it and then we did a little uh video at this last u.s open and i sat down and he said i'll do an interview with you guys and i think he would do it only if i did it with him and i i think he's great i i think he's good for the sport i think he says what he feels he he is kind of one of those guys you know rory's another guy that they get in trouble because sometimes they're honest and they give their their gut reaction and then all of a sudden it blows up it's a rivalry now do you see that today no i did i saw that on my way over here when i was sitting in a cab yeah that he there is no rivalry because rory hasn't won anything in the last five right so now it's gonna be yeah that to be – That now starts to – Like, it wasn't, and now it is.

Correct.

It's good for golf, though.

That type of stuff, like having the old Tiger and Phil,

like two guys at the very top.

That you didn't think liked each other.

Yeah, exactly.

That's great.

Yes, it's awesome for ratings.

How would you rate your golf coverage?

I think, you know, I'm way biased.

Like an F+.

Yeah, F+.

What is that, like in the par system?

Do you make the cut? No. He's never made the cut.
No. No.
No, F plus. Yeah.
What is that? Like a, like in the par system, you make the cut.

No,

he's never made the cut.

No,

no,

no.

Do you ever,

it's gotten better.

Do you ever kind of feel like it has?

I,

I know it has.

I'm just going down along your lines with this.

I,

I'm really,

I was proud of our golf right off the ground,

but I,

Oh,

shut up.

I,

but by now,

yeah,

I think we're a little bit different.

And I think the best compliment we get is a lot of the technical things that Fox brought in other networks that have been covering golf forever are now doing, which kind of happened in football too. I like our golf coverage.
I think it's just your voice lends itself to you just close your eyes and you're like, it's Sunday afternoon. That's fine.
I accept that. That.
That's good. You got a big game voice.
There's not many big game voices. You know what it is? It's on the golf coverage.
Seeing the little Fox logo on the bottom of the screen makes me uncomfortable next to a golf course. It's very weird.
You're fragile. I'm not used.
I'm not a robot in there. I'm not fragile.
Only about golf. Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah.
Get cleanest out on the golf course. That would actually help us kind of, you know, bridge the gap there.
Is it okay? Yeah. Just throw a couple football highlights.
Does it have to be moving around? Yeah. Yeah, get Cletus out on the golf course.
That would actually help us kind of bridge the gap there. Is it okay? Yeah, just throw a couple football highlights.
Does it have to be moving around? Yes, please. Please, please.
Okay. That thing is unnerving.
It has shown up at a couple of our seminars. I'm like, will you just get out of here? It's gigantic.
Cletus as a caddy would be pretty good. Like strap a golf bag to his back, have him like reading a putt for you on the green.
That would be good. That's what they should do.

They should have like a 3D model Cletus reading a putt,

and then it shows you the line.

Then that little tracer comes up after Cletus reads it for you.

That would go over great.

Yes.

Nothing could go better than that,

than having Cletus on the green.

I just got some info here.

Texted to me from an anonymous source.

It says that you like to pick your nose on airplanes. Whoa.
Is fact i do yeah if i'm reading let's try and by the way i can say this because you know i i know that this is i can say pretty much anything on here right correct fuck fuck fuck you michelle that's from my wife okay uh that was straight from her uh-huh through our mutual friend yes uh she will like nudge me sometimes we're sitting there and i'm just reading and it's not so much like digging it's just like i have a habit of put it like looking for errant nose hair and if i find an errant nose hair there's nothing more satisfying than ripping it out of my nose putting on top of your head putting on top of my head because that's vibrant hair. Perfect.
Yeah. So this is actually nose hair.
Shit. You need right.
You can't waste that. That's right.
I do it too. I go like that.
It's dry. Airplanes are dry.
Right. Airplanes are dry.
I'm not making excuses though. She's right.
And she'll go like, you know, people, people kind of, some people here know who you are. You need to not be like with your finger, like on your like you know i like i just i'm really scared of

having a long nose hair hanging out and i just am constantly like doing that so yes i do do i like

to do it i just have a habit of doing it i don't like get pleasure out of it and the weird part

about this whole story is that you fly private everywhere so no i wish i did picking your nose

with no one there i fly about 50 but the problem is living in st louis there aren't a lot of flights going in and out of st louis so when i'm flying commercial as i've done three times this postseason mixing football in it's southwest so i get on and people are like wait aren't what do you yeah why do you get you get A1? I usually get A1 through 5. But that doesn't get you much anymore on Southwest.
Because there's like a bunch of people that go on before that. There's a bunch of – First of all, there are through passengers.
And I live in the middle of the country, so everybody's coming through St. Louis.
So they get their preferred seats. And then you get the early – the walk-ons.
And then, okay, now you're left with whatever i i flew to st louis to seattle i sat in the front seat because i like to think i'm in first class on southwest and uh then there was a a woman against the wall like in the eye in the window seat and a girl got on who was with her son this girl went to high school with I said, I will give this kid, I said, kid, I will pay you to sit here in this middle seat. And he went, ah, ha, ha, ha, and then walked on.
And I was serious. By the end of the boarding process, I had a 6'8 guy who weighed at least 320 whose elbow was in my side the entire flight from St.
Louis. Southwest.
Why didn't you tweet at Southwest about it? Big Cat would have taken care of you. Would he? That's what he does.
He responds. Do you have a blue checkmark? I would have got it for you.
Are you verified? You don't tweet enough. Yeah, I don't.
I just think it's bringing down the world. Really? I know it's your lifeblood.
Yeah. But especially in the month of October, the idea of just getting on Twitter is just not good.
Right. Are you actually going to do that thing where you go to, where you call the Redskins game and then you go to DC? You're not? Redskins aren't big enough draw these days? That could be part of it.
And I don't do any Sunday football during the baseball playoffs. So I only do the Thursdays.
Do you do anything different when you're in the booth like i know ernie johnson does the bow tie when he's calling baseball regular tie when he's doing basketball is that so yeah i didn't know that um i know i i uh i don't usually wear suit pants except on thursday nights so i will wear like kind of half-assed jeans or corduroys under my shirt and tie and coat because i like like to be comfortable. I like to wear boots.
I like to feel like I'm hanging out. Yeah.
Yeah. A guy.
A real guy. A guy's guy.
That's like our friend used to be on the Yankees ESPN. Why am I drawing a blank on him now? Tashara.
Mark Tashara. Mark Tashara.
He doesn't wear any underwear underneath his suit. He just goes jockstrap.
Did you find that out? Oh, is that right? He told us. Just like even when he's wearing shorts, he never wears underwear, just a jockstrap all the time.
I've found every jockstrap I've ever worn, which I think the last time I wore one was in high school, was really itchy. Yeah, you got to shower every now and again.
Yeah. Well, it's not that.
It's just the material that those things are made out of. It it's to hold a cup theoretically right they're not comfortable they're not comfortable we can you know what we have a lot of uh business partners in the underwear space right now that advertise on the show they should make what do you have what do you want me undies right now you want to see them you want a pair i'll give you a pair off my my butt crack it's got dinos on there oh my kids would on there.
But yeah, we could partner with them. Would you send a picture to my kids? You want me to send a picture of me in my underwear to your children? A, it'll serve two purposes.
One, they'll enjoy it. Two, it might get you on like a watch list.
You're just trying to get me arrested. Maybe.
I can see through you, Joe. After the picking the nose question.
Yes. All right, I got one last question.
And then you can do Vic Fangio, unless you got a question. SeatGeek question, promo code take.
Go see. Again, I think they're getting ripped off.
No. You don't.
Oh, let's catch it. I don't think you enunciate that well.
SeatGeek. That's the joke.
Oh, I was the one that brought that up initially. SeatGeek.
SeatGeek. You doat geek.
Say, this is a seat geek question. This is a seat geek question.
Seat geek. This is a seat geek question.
Promo code take. Promo code take.

Go buy a ticket. You get $10 off and you don't have to listen to Joe Buck.
Go buy a ticket. You get $10 off and you don't have to listen to joe buck go buy a ticket you get ten dollars off and you don't have to listen to joe buck broadcast a game with your little stupid tweet with the joe buck mute button shut up well that was my last question this guy just said uh i still hate joe buck hashtag fucker that's good that's good that's good popping off on that hashtag weller.
A lot of people like the fucker forum.

I just searched Joe Buck.

Fuck Joe Buck.

And a lot of people are just, fuck you, Joe Buck.

Fuck you.

I cannot stand Joe Buck.

Fuck you, Joe Buck.

You got excited.

Fuck you.

I will say that I noticed that I have, in this search, I have actually seen an equal amount

of fuck Joe Buck.

He hates the Yankees.

And fuck Joe Buck. All he does is talk about how great the yankees are it really isn't funny to watch it like split 50 50 yeah and that's that's the national that means you're doing a good job announcer yeah and whoever is next on this wonderful trail yeah we'll get the same shit only it'll be worse yeah because he'll be the new guy doing it or the new girl doing it.
I miss Joe Buck. Where's Joe Buck? Yeah.
This guy sucks. He hates my team.
You should do a fake retirement. Like walk away from the game for six weeks.
And then just tweet something with me like this. No, you do the Jay Leno where you leave and you're like, I'm passing it on to the next guy.
And then the next guy gets roasted and and you come in, and now you're the hero. Joe Buck saves the NFL.
Yes. Yeah.
Okay. You're thinking about it.
I am thinking about it. I mean, we would miss you when you're gone.
I like that. Have you said to anyone at Fox, like, hey, blink check, Tony Romo, get him to me? No.
No. Oddly enough, no, that's never come out of my mouth.
That's a question by me.

Yeah.

Yeah.

No, I'm happy.

You have a type.

I'm happy.

You have a type.

I have a good guy that I'm friends with that we get along great and we have fun.

That's all I want. John Smoltz you're talking about.

John Smoltz.

John Smoltz.

Certainly not.

I wanted to flag this real quick.

I don't know.

You say you don't read the blogs or the haters, but on the big lead, they did a media draft to put together an nfl like an entire network of nfl team or like nfl coverage stuff is clickbait no listen to this so here's the team that you were drafted onto you ready yeah they got you troy so they kept you guys together nice they got michael irvin randy moss carissa lisa sal, my internet dad, his internet uncle, Mike Florio, and then the last two, Big Cat and PFT on your team. We're on the same team.
We're on the same team. What are we going to do? Retweet the article because they mentioned us.
That's what you have to do. That's exactly right.
Do a knife fight or something with the other – what are the other teams? No, Tirico. I just name-searched my name, and then I retweeted after I saw it was on there.
Yeah, you just retweeted. It's just they put you on a list and then you just retweet it.
Isn't that funny? It's as easy as possible. Internet business work.
We actually did a bracket a couple of years ago where it was literally the bracket for who's most likely to retweet this. And then whoever retweeted it advanced in the bracket.
Pretty genius, right? It's genius. Pretty genius.
It's genius. And everybody's talking about your show.
Everybody's talking about the show. Pardon my taste.
Yep. And you were smart enough to be an early adopter.
That way people don't hate you totally. Right.
They kind of get it. We soften it for you.
I think I was talking about it with my daughter today. We had breakfast.
She said people say that shit because they look at you as a thing and the problem is i'm a sensitive little flower i'm a sensitive soul so sensitive you almost killed yourself with hair surgery no well yeah i could have bled out i could have bled out uh yeah so you you want to be loved by everybody you realize you're not there for anybody except for Fox. And that's kind of a lonely position to be in.
So you just got to take it and cash your checks and shut up. It is the number one thing we get when it's like people will just say, don't make me like this guest.
Like you made me like Joe Buck. Swear to God.
When we have like a new guest on who's maybe controversial or people don't like him. They're like, don't give me.
I'm so controversial. No, but they're like, don't make me like him.
You fuckers, they say that, you fuckers already made me like Joe Buck. Don't do it for this guy.
Yeah. Well, I don't think those people should like me.
I think if they have any moral compass. Agreed.
And any integrity. If they hated me before I came on here, continue to hate me.
Yes. If they liked me before I came on here, continue to hate me.
If they liked me before I came on here, now they can hate me. They're going to like you even more though because you said that and you kind of negged them and you put them down.
So what you're doing right now is you're actually clamoring for more of their love. It's literally whenever I do get on Twitter and tweet back at these people, they flip in .08 seconds.
Oh, hey, yeah, I yeah yeah you do a great job but you know it just kind of seems like you hate my Yankees okay got it I don't it doesn't make any sense why would I hate the Yankees I just if El Tuve unzip hits a home run I have to get excited that's my job otherwise it's just monotone the entire time I've tried that way and that doesn't work either yeah people don't like boring and i do mean it like people if you were to walk away from from football for half a year people would realize very quickly that you weren't as bad as they thought that you that's the biggest worstest horse shittiest compliment i've ever been paid that's the nicest compliment i've ever given so we're meeting the middle on on that one all right well by the way uh they will miss when you leave the big head pictures because they've taken like everyone does it for me now i don't even have to do it anymore people just take big outsource big joe buck big fucking head yeah look at that does that suck that you know that like there's a google search i don't google search joe buck like we're involved yeah that's like some we show up you know what i should do i should make fox every time we come on camera at the beginning shrink my head oh to make it to make it harder do it once because when they blow it up then i'd be normal can you actually do it we'll end with this i know you want to get out of here so bad no no you actually you have to film this. Oh, shit.
Make a conscious effort to get your hands up a little bit higher because it's really funny when I get your big head, but your hands look really tiny. Okay.
So I'll do this. Hold them like right here.
So here's what I'll do. Yeah.
Last Thursday in Denver, I'll put my hands up. Just a little bit right when you get announced.
Yeah. Yeah.
I'm good one i'm not gonna tell you what to do but it always makes me laugh when kenny albert does the little hand tent this one we're all just the tips of it's kind of political and i don't know why i've found myself like doing this a lot like i'm itching to run for congress or something yeah we're like hey it's a me yeah give boy. It's a me, the latte.

On the Twitter. Yeah, do it.
Oh, fuck you. All right, Joe Buck, thank you as always.
You're the best. I have one last question.
Oh, my God. Oh, Jesus Christ.
This is like Liza Minnelli's retirement. You don't have to answer, but I'm going to ask it anyways.

No.

Does he have a hog farm?

Oh, he's gotten to you, too.

That was funny that you presented you. That was good.

I don't know anything about Terry Bradshaw's hog farm.

Terry Bradshaw is the best.

He is my favorite human ever, other than myself.

A recent Gallup survey shows Americans worry more and more about burglary than almost any other crime, more than a mugging, more than terrorism, more than car theft, more than murder even. I've had my house broken into a couple times.
It is an unsettling feeling. You never get that sense of security back.
According to studies, just over 10% of break-ins are planned beforehand. The rest are spur of the moment.
Crimes of opportunity. In other words, they're random.
Did you know that most break-ins happen between 6 a.m. and 6 p.m.
in the middle of the day? Broad daylight. The unmitigated gall of these burglars.
According to the FBI, the average loss in burglary is over $2,000. That can be hard to recover from.
There are over 2 million burglaries reported every year. That's one every 13 seconds.
That means we've had two burglaries. Two burgles have occurred in the time that I've been reading this ad right now.
What's crazy is that only one in five homes has home security. Maybe because most companies don't really make it easy.

First up, we have PR 101 for Tennessee head coach Jeremy Pruitt. When you mentioned this PFT, I went and looked at it.
You said there's people talking about it. You didn't say it yourself.
You said there's people talking about it. Many people are talking.
I went and looked to see the face mask grab. Are people serious? People are talking about it.
People are talking about it. I want to fight these people.
I want to grab these people's face masks. Well, here's the deal.
This is why you want Greg Sciano coaching your team and not Pruitt, because it would not have been a five-yard face mask penalty with Sciano. He would have ripped the whole thing off and threw it like Kyle Turley across the field.
He tapped that face mask. You know what my problem was with it? He didn't use it as a teachable moment.
Yeah. He looked away.
It was a showboating face mask grab. It was the Patrick Mahomes of grabbing your guy by the face mask.
At least make eye contact and teach him something while you've got him. I actually think you're onto something because the only thing that I could find wrong with this is that he, I think, figured out that he was going to be chastised for this and stopped like mid motion because he didn't own it.

I mean, I'm not going to do like the old man here thing, but like, and I wasn't alive for

this, but Woody Hayes choked guys.

He did.

Bob Knight choked guys.

I mean, terrible, terrible person, terrible person, but he choked people and they weren't

punished for it all.

Right.

Well, a little bit. Yeah.
They both died. Right? Bob Knight? Bob Knight's alive.
Still alive. Still alive.
Mentally still alive. Damn.
As somebody who got grabbed by his face mask by his high school coach, I feel like I am obligated to talk about this. I think since it happened to me, it needs to happen to everybody else because I'm still bitter about it.
This is the most nothing story of all time. And I don't really – I also know that – what's his name? Garantano, Guantanamo guy.
Yeah, Guantanamo. Jared Guantanamo, the quarterback for Tennessee.
He audibled and fucked up that play real bad. Oh, so he deserved it.
I remember watching it. Oh, yeah.
He deserved more than that. If he didn't want to get his face mask grabbed, why was he wearing one? Correct.
Yes. We have to ask what part he played in the provocation.
Yeah, so here's the thing about getting grabbed by your face mask. I think it's something that announcers love to talk about.
I don't think it happens as much as it used to back in the day. And when I say back in the day, I don't really know what I'm talking about when I say that, but I'm pretty sure like 20, 30 years ago it was more common because announcers discuss it all the time.
They're like, I grabbed that guy by his face mask. I don't think it happens that much anymore.
If it does happen, I think that if you're a coach that's trying to do it, at least be communicating something to your player. This was like a tug.
He just looked like a dick when he did it. That's what the problem was.
I forgot something, PFT. Yeah.
Jeremy Pruitt's getting paid $4.5 million a year. Guantanamo's getting paid $0.
That's true. That's also true.
Never mind. I'm off this.
You have to mention that. In this day and age, you have to mention that.
I think it's not unreasonable say that a coach shouldn't like pull somebody's face mask in a jerking motion i think it should be up to the player and if he's fine with it it's fine honestly okay yeah because it's like some players need to be coached a different way than others this is like some people need to be yelled at some people don't like that's how it works this is like the tom izzo thing from last year right when his players were like no that's fine that's how we love him and we're happy that he coaches like that right when he gets fire yeah when he gets fired up it makes it makes us realize we're screwing up also i think that seeing him do that probably ingratiated himself a little bit to some of the tennessee fans that are pissed off about how the team's been playing this yes they're like good good i would have grabbed that kid by his face two weeks ago yes yeah and you know what if you want to take the the the um side of you wouldn't let your kid play for jeremy pruitt well that's probably a good choice because the tennessee sucks whatever whatever case you need to make your point like i don't want my kid playing for pruitt take that yes absolutely this is what what is the the camel's back, by all means, run with that. You can use any excuse you want.
Right. I mean, they are really, really bad.
So good call. You'd rather your son play for Nick Saban, who is totally normal and well-adjusted when dealing with everyone.
Yep. Yep.
Okay. Breaking Moose.
This is actually... You do Breaking Moose? This is actually the biggest Breaking Moose we've ever had because it's real Breaking Moose.
It's Breaking Moose to you right now. You've never even heard it.
Usually it's just Breaking Moose to us. Paul Rabel just walked into the studio.
He is the founder, best player, GOAT, commissioner of the Premier Lacrosse League. We're lacrosse guys.
Hank is the number one lacrosse fan. Sport of the future.
Paul Rabel has news that no one else knows. If you're listening to this right now, you're the first to hear it.
What is it? Wow. So much pressure.
Yeah. A lot.
No pro league has ever broken news. No, no.
Oh, that's not worthy of breaking news. You're the GOAT.
Officially, the P.O.L. is expanding to a seventh lacrosse club in 2020.

Whoa!

First time you heard it here first.

Okay.

I'm trying to do the math in my head real quick.

Is that a 16% expansion of the league?

That's right.

Do you think you're expanding too fast?

No.

Okay.

What are some of the worries?

Otherwise, we wouldn't.

Great question.

People always get mad about that.

They're like, expansion, the Carolina Panthers? Now, are you worried about having an odd number of teams? Natural buys. So this is more exclusive news.
You've thought about this. Yeah, well, we've had to.
Okay, okay. No, the natural expansion would have been by two teams, given that we're tour-based.
So you've had double headers on a Friday and a Saturday or Saturday and a Sunday. But now we have natural buys weaved into our 2020 schedule.
Okay, so that's breaking moves that the PLL is going to go. They're expanding to a seventh team.
Now we've got more breaking moves. This might even be bigger breaking moves.
This is the big stuff. This is the big stuff.
This is more than the seventh team. Paul Rabel, what are we doing on Friday's show? Because you're staying here and we're going to do this right after we finish this breaking moves.
We're locking you in the studio for two days. What are we doing? We are shopping the name of the seventh lacrosse club with the two of you and Hank.
Yes. We're deciding the name.
We are deciding the name. Deciding the name.
I don't think you're ready for that. Caveat here.

No.

I was thinking we were deciding.

If the name gets decided, you guys will also be owners of stock options in the Premier

Lacrosse League.

Yes.

Let's go.

Dude, I already own so many sports teams.

Multi-sports.

We've got a sports.

The breakers.

We've got an international conglomerate.

I own a basketball team, a soccer team, a lacrosse team. That's what you want, a portfolio.
Yeah. And eSports.
I think I have an eSports team. Basically, no teams that could ever make me money.
I own a football team. The Green Bay Packers.
Are there FTC issues with being a multi-owner? A player, commissioner, co-founder of a league, pitching a media company to cover their sport in exchange for a stock up kick-off. No.
My legal advice is don't worry about it. No.
My legal advice is if you commit an illegal activity, as long as you say it beforehand, you cannot be tried. I already did it on the yak.
There we go. I tampered.
So there we go. We tampered.
We did all that. Also, this is just, say it's satire.
Yeah. Right.
You satirically committed fraud. All right.
So that's Double Breaking Moose. Tune in on Friday.
So the PLL is expanding to seven teams. You'll see all the press releases tomorrow.
You were the first to hear it. And on Friday's show, we're about to tape it.
We're about to tape that portion of Friday's show. We're going to decide the seven teams name that we're also going to own.
And on top of that, can we give away stock to listeners? I'd have to check in with our paperware. We're going to give away stock to listeners.
You know what we'll do? Fuck yeah. You know what we'll do? We'll come up with t-shirts for the team that we name, and then we'll do the Larry thing with them, where if you buy one of those shirts, you're a part owner.
Yes. Owned by the people'm really going rogue right now yeah can you get fired as the founder theoretically i think i could get voted off by our board we might just have to hire and on top of all that paul rabel now works at barstool just went up in flames my entire professional career it started here though and then it ended pick that sidebar yep we get them fired but then we own like much of that seventh team.
We use our leverage, and we take over the league.

And then we're the commissioners and owners of the entire league.

And you guys can hire me to coach the seventh team.

And then we can play.

Yeah, then we hire you.

And we make everyone else play worse than us.

Papa John.

Good point.

And then we bet.

Yeah, and we bet.

And we fix it again.

Papa John's somewhere in here to be the shadow commissioner of the lacrosse.

He's not doing anything right now.

Okay, good, good.

So, okay.

All right.

Yeah, let's tune in. This sounds like a lot of fun.
We're going to decide the name, but that's big news. Congratulations on expansion, by the way.
Thank you, guys. Alright, we will see you on Friday, but you're actually not going anywhere right now.
Wait, one last question about expansion. I'm genuinely curious about this.
Are you going to do an expansion draft, or how is it going to work? Yes, so the six clubs that we have in place now are going to protect 10 of their 24 players. What happens if you don't get then you go into the expansion draft pool you personally well that would be a real blow to the conversation you've got a big ego actually let me let me throw another wrinkle into the mix here uh the atlas which we dubbed the atli when we came on prior to the season beginning uh we didn't make the playoffs and our coach stepped down so right now we don't have a coach oh Hank now here's gonna have to do his name was John Paul no no Hank can coach Hank I'm available or Belichick could you imagine if we got Hank to coach about Hank Hank knows the vernacular pretty well talk it gets up and out wait you see my schemes twigs yeah run fast what if you put yourself into the expansion pool and then you get on arc shots? Crank, crank shots.
That may or may not happen depending on the team name. Okay.
Okay. All right.
All right. So tune in Friday.
We're going to decide the expansion team in the PLL, their name. Okay.
That was Paul Rabel. Big, big, big breaking moves.
We're going to keep him chained to this radiator until Friday's show. And we're going to have a big discussion about what the next team name should be.
Yeah, I'm excited. Friday's show, he wasn't ready for it.
He thought we were going to just do the breaking moves, but we basically were like, no, we're deciding the name, and we're going to do it right now, Stream of Conscious. So it was funny, and it's good.
Check it out on Friday. Before we get to guys on chicks, let's do PMT Sports Biz.
Good morning. This is Jake Marsh with the PMT Sports Biz Minute.
The 2019 World Series is underway. Washington Nationals and Houston Astros.
Of course, the first team to win four games will earn the championship, plus the Commissioner's Trophy and rings alongside it. But in the early 20th century, players who won it all received either pocket watches or medallions to commemorate their big win.
And one man, Frank Crosetti, won 17 titles with the Yankees as a player and coach that at one point the team stopped giving him the usual prize and switched things up a little bit to engrave shotguns. Safe to say, that would not fly today.
Real estate update. Larry the Goldfish has a new home.
His fresh tank is 12 inches high, 12 inches deep, and 30 inches wide. It can fill up to 20 gallons of water, which is 166.91 pounds.
That's equivalent to 2,670 bags of the snack, Goldfish. That's delicious.
That's your PMT Sports Biz Minute, Mr. Cat and Mr.
Commenter. Back to you.
Thank you, Jake. Very cool.
Very cool. Very cool, Jake.
As always. Ravel's cracking, by the way.
I've noticed that he doesn't shave as much as he used to. He is cracking.
He looks like David Wallace, a recurring guest on the show from The Office. And Artie Lang.
And Artie Lang. Yeah.
You remember when David Wallace was unemployed for a while and started that band with his son and stopped shaving and just wore sweatpants all the time? That's what Ravel looks like. Now that he's entered the world of being a blogger, he's really taking liberties on growing his stubble out.
Do you think Darren Revell has ever been in the same room as cocaine? I thought of the Cazardi Lane. Yeah, yeah.
Darren Revell is in the same room. Big time executive meetings and shit.
Darren Revell has definitely attended like a police. John Skipper was his boss.
That's true, yeah. He's attended a police press conference where they lay out all the coke on the table so that he'd report on the street value of how much that is so true yes he definitely and the and the police officer was wearing ray-bans yeah uh this this particular uh type of cocaine is from the monterey region it's a very valuable brand uh oh man that would be so funny to sit him down and, man, you ever seen it? What? I'm not even talking.
I don't know what you're talking about. How many times has Darren Revelle been in and around drugs in his life? Three.
Three times. Two of which were like the worst weed ever.
One was he went to like a Rolling Stones concert and someone accidentally like. No, he's not been to concert yeah because the branding dude like the pepsi world tour yeah something like that i think revel you know how your parents always say i tried weed one time in college and i didn't like it darren's actually honest when he says that yeah he probably like took a hit one time in his dorm called the cops called the cops on himself i'm having a heart attack he was staring at at a blacklight poster for too long.
I feel like I'm tripping.

Are you supposed to trip? Is this laced with something?

Yeah, weed. Alright, let's do

guys on chicks. Hey boys, especially

5'10 PFT. Sup?

Well, that guy doesn't exist, so. I've always

been interested in wrestling, and when wrestling

around with my new boyfriend, I beat him.

The sad thing is, I think he was actually

trying hard to win. Can I

keep dating him knowing that I outfit him in physical competition? Yeah, just tell him You're not allowed to make Eye contact with me He's your sex slave now I'll say it That's kind of hot I mean that is kind of hot You just get fucking Worked by your girlfriend I got beaten in a Food eating contest One time By a girl in college Yeah That I was kind of with At the time That was tough to come back from. People forget I'm actually, I hold a championship belt in Women's Arm Wrestling League.

Like the Andy Kaufman of arms. Yeah, pretty much.
I didn't, but it was for that moment. I was like, oof.
Also, I need to know what kind of wrestling we're talking about here. Is this a pin situation? Is it Greco-Roman? Yeah.
Or are we doing like, you know, Bronco busting off the, you know, and just face fucking each other? Exactly. And that's hot.
Is it possible to be sexually attracted to a guy you find ugly? Yes. It's called brains.
All the time. I'm attracted to PFT.
I'm attracted to Big Cat. I already used that burn.
You can't use that. Yes you can't use that yes it is though right it is yeah yeah you can be sexually attracted to anything personality yeah there are some people that are sexually attracted to brains we've we've talked about that sapiosexuals yeah so yeah you and also i think there's something to be said in all honesty of like you know the don't you judge a book by its color cover you judge like the attractiveness away.
But once you get to know someone, you can look past maybe some other things. I've been turned off by somebody's brain before.
Absolutely. That's a big thing for me.
Without a doubt. If I don't like your brain, I'm not getting any brain.
Yeah, if your brain's stupid, I'm out. Yep.
Hi, PMT boys. As Hank struggles to read it.
My boyfriend moved two hours away for a new cop job and his day's off from the middle of the week while I'm off on weekends like a normal person. Whenever he's off, he makes an excuse why it's too much work to come see me.
What should I think and what should I do about it? How do I get him to quit being lazy and come back home on his days off? You got to start committing crimes. Yeah.
Make him show up at your house. Yeah.
Did you see that hot girl get arrested? The video? There's all. Yeah.
Do that. There's always like a hot felon picture that goes around.
Remember that? The hot criminal? Yes. That guy.
Yeah. Basically, you just need to start breaking into your neighbor's house until he gets called on you.
I love how stupid we are as a society where it's like, oh, check out this hot murderer. Yeah.
He's so hot that's what i'm gonna yeah murderers yeah oh my god like yeah he killed a bunch of people but his eyes are gorge cardi b run me over with an suv hey guys especially getting slim cat i've always wanted to ask one of those questions about something annoying my boyfriend does but one problem. I haven't had a boyfriend for almost five years.
What the fuck is wrong with me? Help, please. Wait, so what's the annoying question? She says I've always wanted to ask one of those questions.
Oh, the problem is she hasn't called into guys. But you've asked a question now.
So mission accomplished. What the fuck is wrong with me is the question.
Yeah, right. You don't have to be be in a relationship for guys on chicks.
But the question was like she wants to ask a question on guys on chicks. So she accomplished that.
So mission accomplished. What the fuck is wrong with you? Probably a lot.
But you accomplish this thing. So maybe that's actually the thing.
Like you need to hop this hurdle before you could get into a relationship. Yeah.
I mean, maybe you've just been spending this five years figuring yourself out. You're just you're focusing on your career.
Listen, if you if you have hit a dry spell, if you want to be in a relationship, you haven't been in one for a long time. Just say you just haven't found Mr.
Mrs. Right yet.
And you're not going to settle. Not going to settle.
I you know what? I'm learning to love myself love myself that's what you say and then people will be like oh that sounds smart and then guys will be really attracted to you because they know they can't have you because you love yourself all right last one hey sad cat and pft cohen i think that's a typo but pft cohen is that a okay Is it a Donald Trump lawyer thing? Mm-hmm. Hmm? Tariq Cohen.
Oh, Tariq Cohen.

Oh.

Yeah, no, it's a typo.

It's a typo. You were right.
I think that was right. If you're watching Barstool Gold right now, I'm doing the thing.
I'm doing the thing. It's too low.
That's good. That's good stuff.
I was genuinely hurt when I thought for a second that he was 5'9". You were so hurt.
You really was so real. Really? Because you had a whole thing set up and I just said it and he was like, wait.
I was simultaneously disappointed, embarrassed for myself. That was the least confident I've ever felt since I've started working on this podcast.
I've been dating a guy for four months now and he's a huge sports fan. He loves the Braves, Georgia Bulldogs and the Fal Falcons.
He's a super sweet guy, but apparently he has a burner Twitter account. I started following it and he unleashes hell on sports writers, players, even the wives of the players.
I haven't brought it up. I don't like this Dr.
Jekyll, Mr. Hyde thing.
What should I do? I made a burner to follow his burner. Nothing bad.
He doesn't follow porn or anything, just the team accounts, sports writers, and players and other fans. He has tried to fight other fans.
Like I said, super sweet guy that checks all the boxes for me, but this hidden Twitter and huge anger problem over stupid sports is something else. Any advice? I love this.
I like it a lot. I love this.
This is the Georgia version of meet me in Temecula. Yes.
Meet me in Savannah. It's going down.
All right. So let's just start with the positives here.
He's not doing it in your house. I think this is actually the healthiest way that a sports fan can burn off some steam.
He's not getting angry at the game. Well, I assume he probably actually is.
But let's just assume he is not like outwardly yelling, you know, screaming at you, taking it out on you,

being like, oh, get out of my face.

I want to hang out with you.

The Falcons lost again.

He's doing it on Twitter.

So I don't think you should have a problem with this.

I think he has found a very normal outlet to be an immature sports fan,

which is redundant because we all are.

So just let him live.

I think that you should be more concerned with yourself, actually, because the fact that this guy is a fan of all those teams and then he chose you that says something like you're going to disappoint him at some point too this right before you get married before he gets that ring you're going to probably sleep with his brother i think you can as well you have a burner account now you got a tag team in so all great relationships you know romeo and juliet roger goodell and his wife the the sixers colangelo and his wife all great relationships have a burner for each other so you romney romney you need to come over the top when people answer to him and try to challenge him to a fight. You need to be like, fuck you.
He's going to face. Fuck you.
And don't tell him. And then maybe on his birthday, be like, hey, you know, that burner account who always has your back.
That's me, honey. It's going to be like the plot to Pina Coladas, where you realize that you're both looking for the same thing.
the one danger i see in that is he might fall in love with your burner account right and think about leaving you for this person online that always has his back and fights so you've got mail like you've got mail it's like a reverse you've got mail you need to you can't be a woman online and and do this to him because there's a high chance that he falls in love with you. Yeah.
So just so fine. So just Google.
Just be a dog. Just a dog, Abby.
Yeah. Or just Google big fish catch and just have a guy in sunglasses who's holding up a big fish and have that be your avatar.
Problem solved. Yeah.
I like this. This is let do it for a week.
Practice it out. Then could you please email back and email us your Twitter handle and his Twitter handle.
We won't say either of them out loud, but we will read some of the tweets of you defending your mans with a burner account. And I think that would be a very funny thing to see.
There should definitely be a dating app just for atlanta sports fans yeah

and for people with burner accounts misery msry i like that yeah i like that a lot disrupting

everything okay we will see everyone on friday we have paul rabel back to decide the seventh

pll team name and the legend cm punk in studio so get excited plus i have a can't lose parlay guys love you guys
