PMS 2.0 1294 - Dan Marino, Ari Emanuel, Jameis Winston, Kenny Chesney & More

Speaker 4 Hello beautiful people and welcome to the convention center down here in glorious New Orleans.

Speaker 6 We are at Radio Row for Super Bowl 59 and this program starts now.

Speaker 11 Football!

Speaker 14 It is absolutely magical and obviously two days from now we will be crowning a world champion.

Speaker 25 Will it be the back-to-back Super Bowl champion, Kansas City Chiefs, representing the AFC or will the Philadelphia Eagles behind Nick Siriani and the boys win for a city that is known for brotherly love, eating a poop, and climbing of greased up poles?

Speaker 28 Will the Philadelphia Eagles be celebrating all over the city?

Speaker 25 Or will the Kansas City Chiefs do something that no team has done in the modern era, which is win three straight bombardies?

Speaker 15 It's a magical time.

Speaker 35 We're very lucky to be down here and the energy is palpable.

Speaker 29 We are celebrating the sport.

Speaker 36 We are celebrating the league.

Speaker 29 We are celebrating the year and we're celebrating breaking news as it happens.

Speaker 37 Congratulations to Ireland getting a home game

Speaker 38 next year. And obviously, we have got to be there.

Speaker 15 And the talks and tables here at Boston Conner and Atai Schmidt.

Speaker 38 Nine-year NFL vet Darius J.

Speaker 17 Buffer is here.

Speaker 36 All-time leading tackler for the Packers is here, AJ Hawk.

Speaker 41 12-year Super Bowl champion A.Q.

Speaker 22 Shipley is here.

Speaker 5 One half of the hammer, Dod Cowboys AP Tone is here.

Speaker 44 And I'll tell you what, UAP folks are certainly in the crosshairs right now.

Speaker 45 We will talk to you.

Speaker 47 But joining us now, ladies and gentlemen, from the Ireland comp comp of the NFL,

Speaker 48 McQuaid.

Speaker 49 Oh, yeah, it's McQuaid.

Speaker 11 It is McQuidd.

Speaker 52 Lads, what's the crack? How are we getting on?

Speaker 53 Lads, what's a crack?

Speaker 37 Hey, Ireland has an NFL game coming.

Speaker 39 You should be incredibly proud of yourself alongside the entire Pro Football Ireland crew.

Speaker 18 What you have done to champion the league, champion the sport in your home country, magical.

Speaker 56 And what's going to happen whenever the NFL goes over there is they're going to want to go back.

Speaker 52 Oh, yeah.

Speaker 57 So congratulations, McQuaid. You've really done it this time.

Speaker 58 Hop, hup, hop, huh, hop, hop, hop, hop.

Speaker 59 It's a hell of a celebration, McQuaid.

Speaker 15 How do you guys feel?

Speaker 60 I mean, how many booms would you give an Ireland game? Five?

Speaker 61 Yeah?

Speaker 62 Six, probably.

Speaker 52 I mean,

Speaker 60 I never thought, lads, thanks for having me on. I never thought it's Cedar Day in my life.

Speaker 60 I mean, I genuinely was saying out there when you guys came to Dublin, I think that helped massively as well because it showed not just fans, but it showed the league that big events.

Speaker 60 big shows can happen and it can be controlled. And that was a great day as crack in Dublin, but what a day this is for the Steelers, Steaters, the Rooney family, and for the NFL as a whole.

Speaker 60 And I totally agree. I think it'll set the standard internationally.
I think it'll be a party to end all parties.

Speaker 52 Yeah, and I agree on that.

Speaker 36 And I think, you know, I appreciate you giving us.

Speaker 64 A tiny sliver of credit.

Speaker 59 I think everybody saw

Speaker 52 that.

Speaker 11 Yeah,

Speaker 11 it's a good time.

Speaker 45 Everybody's seeing the crock.

Speaker 66 Crazy crock of a day.

Speaker 69 But the hospitality, how everything's set up, too.

Speaker 72 It's all like, we live in Indianapolis.

Speaker 73 Indianapolis is set up to host things.

Speaker 32 Dublin felt the same exact way.

Speaker 22 We could walk from everywhere to everywhere.

Speaker 77 And legitimately, the way the city shut down for Georgia Tech taking on Florida State, I can't even fathom what it's going to be for an NFL game over there.

Speaker 55 And we can't wait to see it.

Speaker 60 The party, the end, all parties. I mean, AP must be buzzing.
You got to get over them, man.

Speaker 79 100%. Yeah, we're going for sure, right?

Speaker 26 Yeah, Tonin's definitely going to be there.

Speaker 8 Oh, okay.

Speaker 60 I think one thing that's really important as well, and it's important to say it, you've got 32 teams in the league.

Speaker 60 31 other teams don't have the links to the island or the links to a country like the Rooney family have.

Speaker 60 So for Dan, the entire Rooney family and the history that they've had, this is such an emotional but an important day for them.

Speaker 60 And I just can't wait to see the standard that they're going to bring it to because I know already some of the things that

Speaker 60 they have planned in store. It's just going to be epic, guys.
It's going to be unbelievable.

Speaker 22 And the Irish people are a people that will enjoy football.

Speaker 15 Like, if they, obviously rugby is huge over there and soccer's huge over there and rugby sevens, I think, is gigantic over there.

Speaker 81 There's a lot of sports over there.

Speaker 13 But them as a people, and this is not me just,

Speaker 82 it is.

Speaker 56 I'm painting with a broad brush here.

Speaker 17 Irish people will love football if they see it.

Speaker 76 And do you agree with that?

Speaker 84 I think the more people that get introduced to the sport in Ireland, the more people that love it over there.

Speaker 85 Number one in the world in rugby.

Speaker 60 So I'm going to take that to the hill, guys, straight up.

Speaker 61 We're a sport in Ireland.

Speaker 86 We love sport, Gaelic football.

Speaker 60 I know you guys have featured hurling before on your top 10.

Speaker 48 Yes,

Speaker 28 yes, what a snag.

Speaker 11 Oh, my God.

Speaker 88 Yeah, the lad.

Speaker 45 Hop, hop, hop. Yeah, it was great.
It was great over there.

Speaker 52 Quite the crack. Yeah, it was quite the crack.

Speaker 90 Crazy crack.

Speaker 60 Every July, 82,300 people pack into Crook Park for that.

Speaker 88 And they're amateur sportsmen.

Speaker 92 They go to work on the Monday morning.

Speaker 93 We love sport.

Speaker 85 We love the passion of it.

Speaker 61 And yes, I think more and more people are being connected to it.

Speaker 60 Like, my dad's like, oh, it's too slow.

Speaker 95 You get into it.

Speaker 79 It's a bit of crack at the end of the day.

Speaker 47 Yeah, it is a bit of a crack.

Speaker 52 Crack.

Speaker 39 Congratulations to the entire Pro Football Ireland.

Speaker 88 Thank you guys.

Speaker 15 Okay, let's talk about the Super Bowl that is taking place here in just a few days.

Speaker 73 We have a massive update from ESPN Bet.

Speaker 56 Let's head over to the Hammer Drone.

Speaker 100 Cowboy AP Tone, where are we at right now?

Speaker 93 Yeah, ESPN Bet is the first

Speaker 93 sports book to make it a pick'em on Sunday between the Chiefs and the Eagles, which is basically means on the money line it is minus 110, minus 110.

Speaker 93 There is no favorite currently right now at ESPN Bet, and that kind of signifies exactly what we've been expressing all week long, where we have no idea. Idea how this game's going to go.

Speaker 93 We are having a hard time picking which team is going to win. It's because both teams are great, and it's going to be an awesome.

Speaker 98 Chiefs are favored by one still if there is a spread.

Speaker 104 Chiefs minus one.

Speaker 98 That's normally an indicator of where the money is potentially for the bet to take it one way or the other.

Speaker 38 But both being minus 110 means that the sports books have no idea.

Speaker 93 Yeah, and other books are like even money minus 120 to the Chiefs. It feels like that's the way it's going.
More and more Eagles money continues to pour in. 66% of the tickets are in the Eagles.

Speaker 93 75% of the money is on the Eagles. And a lot of the big bets coming in are on the Eagles so far.

Speaker 93 So there's a chance that it might go the other way where Eagles eventually become the quote-unquote favorite. But yeah, right now it's a pick of them.

Speaker 42 AJ, we were talking about this while we were in the creepy Sprinter van

Speaker 20 on the way over here to the convention center.

Speaker 22 And we all had the same sentiment.

Speaker 107 Literally, every day I'm waking up with a new thought on who's going to win the game.

Speaker 108 Yep.

Speaker 109 I have gone over to, yeah, bingo.

Speaker 36 I think every time you think about it, there's a new way to look at it.

Speaker 70 And I even saw on GitUp, I think there's a couple people that have been on GitHub like yesterday that picked something, and then today picked a different team.

Speaker 36 This has been hard to figure out because you can see it going so many different directions.

Speaker 99 And I think like AQ, what'd you say about this Eagles roster?

Speaker 113 Yeah, it's the most expensive roster in the NFL. And when you look at that on paper, they win almost everywhere.

Speaker 116 But there is one guy.

Speaker 118 Yeah, it's the Chiefs.

Speaker 15 It's Patrick Mahomes.

Speaker 36 It's hard to figure this out.

Speaker 119 Could you see the Eagles winning by 24, I guess, with the way the team is built? You can see that.

Speaker 120 But then on the other side, it's Patrick Mahomes.

Speaker 56 They're like, well, they don't have nearly enough weapons.

Speaker 107 And it's like, well, I think they do.

Speaker 72 And it's like, I have no idea which way the game's going to go.

Speaker 107 It's literally been hour to hour in this entire thing.

Speaker 121 Yeah, the more I watch on TV, the more I watch Dano and different guys talk about it, I start to change my mind. I don't know.
I was leaning Chiefs early on a little bit. I've gone back and forth.

Speaker 121 I don't know. By the end of this show, I'll probably have a different opinion of what I had 30 minutes ago.

Speaker 17 Who? What are you doing?

Speaker 21 You just got completely distracted talking to somebody.

Speaker 48 There's a big guy out there.

Speaker 123 Yeah, he lost out.

Speaker 124 He was just walking off.

Speaker 67 That's kind of his move.

Speaker 126 Jump surprising you did.

Speaker 127 Yeah, it was the whole thing.

Speaker 8 That's kind of his move.

Speaker 55 You know, he owns WWE.

Speaker 128 He owns everything, right?

Speaker 16 We're doing WWE's debut on Netflix from the Intuit Dome, and me and Cole are talking directly to a camera that is two feet in front of us.

Speaker 44 Literally, we are talking to the camera.

Speaker 12 Everybody in there knows we're talking to the camera.

Speaker 120 Ari just walks his ass into the thing.

Speaker 111 Maybe even got in the ring, took a couple bumps.

Speaker 126 He'll be joining us, and I guess whenever the fuck he wants, but probably in about 30 minutes or so, cannot wait to chat with him.

Speaker 55 With that being said, ladies and gentlemen, joining us now is a man who is from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

Speaker 25 A guy who's an all-time great when it comes to spinning a football.

Speaker 17 Quickest release in the history of ball.

Speaker 38 Ladies and gentlemen, friend of the program.

Speaker 19 When he speaks, there's no flubs.

Speaker 56 Fucking send it, ladies and gentlemen, Dan Marino.

Speaker 59 God, it's good to see you.

Speaker 112 Paison, I like your notes.

Speaker 13 Let's make sure we're taking care of all.

Speaker 134 What's that?

Speaker 63 Yeah, put this on. Yeah,

Speaker 82 couldn't hear a word you're talking about there.

Speaker 127 Hey, everybody, what's going on?

Speaker 3 Hey, it's Dan Maria.

Speaker 52 Oh,

Speaker 52 hell yeah.

Speaker 127 Dan to man.

Speaker 39 Dan, okay, so you are here with NAMI, the National Alliance of Mental Illness.

Speaker 98 Tell me how you got involved and what is the goal here with NAMI?

Speaker 135 So the goal is, well, first of all, I got involved a couple years ago. I got to know Dan Gillison, the CEO, and we talked about doing some of this stuff then.

Speaker 135 And also Stay Healthy Zone, which is a partner of mine that I do stuff with. It's a digital wellness company, and they're going to do digital wellness for NOMNI.
And NOMNI's been around forever.

Speaker 135 Nomni's been, I think, 48 years, is probably on there or something.

Speaker 15 Yeah, I think it said largest grassroots mental health organization in the country.

Speaker 135 And the thing is, is they

Speaker 135 I think they want to just make just awareness, awareness about it, just be smart about your health. And if something comes up, don't be afraid to ask somebody.
If you have a problem, ask somebody.

Speaker 135 If you ask your friend, and a lot of times as men and anybody, we just, you know, we don't do that. And we just get along and try to get along.
And

Speaker 107 2025, I don't mean crazy in that way, but you get it.

Speaker 138 In 2025, it feels like we know a lot more about the brain.

Speaker 13 And like, we have a lot more empathy, I feel like, for people going through stuff than we used to.

Speaker 107 It's been a quick evolution, I feel like, for society to kind of come around to it.

Speaker 104 Don't you agree?

Speaker 31 Yeah, I agree.

Speaker 135 I agree. And it's, you know, it's something that's there.

Speaker 52 It's not going away.

Speaker 135 And that's why I think NAMI is one of the

Speaker 135 place you could turn to. And I just talked to,

Speaker 135 who was it? Oh, you know, just

Speaker 135 Zach Taylor. Okay.
Or Zach Thomas. Because Zach Thomas, you know, he played with Junior Seaow.
And

Speaker 135 to me, that whole thing is like, you know, Zach said to me, he's like,

Speaker 135 I thought he was always great. He's funny, laughing, loves football.

Speaker 52 Lights up the room.

Speaker 135 Lights up the room when he comes in. And he said, I never knew there was a problem.
You know, I would have tried to help him. And that's the thing.
Try to help the guys if they have a problem.

Speaker 135 And that was just an example. It's a bad example because I love Junior.
Junior was a job.

Speaker 52 We all do, though, though. But that's what we're talking about.

Speaker 135 I love Junior. But that's exactly kind of what this is.

Speaker 52 I agree.

Speaker 73 I think a lot of us have a lot of friends that we've loved, and we have no idea going through something very serious. At the end of every show, I say, be a friend, tell a friend something nice.

Speaker 25 It might change their life. Because we've had friends, I've had friends that anytime I've seen them, positive, everything, and then they end up passing away from their own doing.

Speaker 15 And it's like, should we have seen the signs?

Speaker 107 Or maybe we should have just asked, you know? But then on the flip side, we hope we get to a point someday where people are feeling that way.

Speaker 74 They will ask people. And I think that's why we're here.

Speaker 142 I'm not sure.

Speaker 7 It's such a big deal.

Speaker 107 I think that's a big deal.

Speaker 56 So thank you for doing that.

Speaker 37 Oh, man, that's cool.

Speaker 111 Hey, baby, Dan.

Speaker 11 Oh, yeah, Dan.

Speaker 143 Hey, baby, Dan.

Speaker 66 Oh, don't go.

Speaker 135 There's our guy, Dan Gillison, right there. He's the CEO of Nomine.

Speaker 144 Shout out, Dan.

Speaker 136 Hey, thank you for making the world a better place, Dan.

Speaker 145 Good suit.

Speaker 103 Thank you, Dan.

Speaker 6 I like that pocket square, too.

Speaker 111 He's got the triple crown.

Speaker 146 Yeah, it looks good.

Speaker 147 Triple crown there, Dan. Good work, man.

Speaker 97 Okay, let's talk a little ball, shall we?

Speaker 148 Yeah, sure.

Speaker 74 Miami Dolphins aren't helping anybody's

Speaker 114 morale

Speaker 58 at all.

Speaker 130 We got a guy named Gumpy back there.

Speaker 25 I assume he thanked you immediately upon walking in. He's from there.

Speaker 149 He is right there on the screen.

Speaker 47 I don't know if you can see him.

Speaker 36 He's from British Columbia, Canada.

Speaker 32 Loves the Dolphins.

Speaker 15 Has his entire life.

Speaker 36 This year, we thought we were going to go.

Speaker 19 Gump, didn't we think we were going to go this year?

Speaker 93 Yeah, for sure. Thought a playoff win was coming down the chute, but here we are, 25 years since his half-londe.

Speaker 150 Jeez. I know, man.
I'm sorry.

Speaker 140 That's all I can tell you.

Speaker 7 What do you think, Gump?

Speaker 117 You know what?

Speaker 135 I thought we had a very good football team this year until we start getting, you know, injuries, especially at the end of the year. And look, Tua is our quarterback.
He's going to be our quarterback.

Speaker 135 But we need to find a way to just keep him healthy, especially at the end of the year when you have to win games to get into playoffs and to maybe get home field advantage

Speaker 135 or just win playoff games. And so that's, I think, really where the focus is going to be.

Speaker 151 Tua's thing came out of nowhere there.

Speaker 52 Yeah, and we just saw him come out of nowhere.

Speaker 50 How do we

Speaker 11 learn a lot more than us?

Speaker 52 Yeah, you guys were in it.

Speaker 31 Lurking, lurking, lurking.

Speaker 15 Then he's no longer playing out of nowhere, and he finishes the season not playing.

Speaker 35 Actually, he had sunglasses on one of the times.

Speaker 135 Yeah, hanging on, but he had...

Speaker 135 Had like a hip pointer. Okay, so you know, and it's just as far as throwing, I mean, he'll be good in the future, but like for those two, three weeks, he was struggling with that.

Speaker 15 Feels like you're around the team a lot.

Speaker 150 Enough, yeah.

Speaker 135 I'm around.

Speaker 16 Are you trying to get a little Pittsburgh in them though, Dan?

Speaker 125 Yeah.

Speaker 52 Well, great.

Speaker 10 Saying the team's soft.

Speaker 67 Gotcha.

Speaker 62 Saying the team's soft.

Speaker 146 Can't play with Nicole.

Speaker 153 They're saying they're soft, Dan.

Speaker 135 Yeah, the Jensers.

Speaker 154 We need more Jensers.

Speaker 155 Amen.

Speaker 45 Listen, everybody.

Speaker 52 Never lie.

Speaker 157 They ain't never lied, brother.

Speaker 7 AJ's got a question for you guys.

Speaker 31 AJ,

Speaker 31 what's up?

Speaker 121 When you look at this Super Bowl and you see Patrick Mahomes, Jalen Hurts, obviously, I guess, what do both these guys do? Like, what have they done that impresses you?

Speaker 7 So, like, start with Mahomes.

Speaker 135 Oh, that's easy. I mean, this is easy because, you know, Mahomes

Speaker 135 may end up being the best quarterback ever. You never know because he's on a run right now, and he's just amazing.
I don't know if he'll ever get to seven Super Bowls, but

Speaker 135 if he wins this one, he's already in the Hall of Fame. And what he does as an athlete as far as how he throws the ball from different angles, and you really can't teach that.

Speaker 135 And he has anticipation, he has everything. But also, he's smart because he can run, but he never gets hurt from running the ball because he knows where where he's on the field.

Speaker 135 His awareness is there, and he's just a special player. Special player.
And then Jalen Hurts has been great, too. It's just he's a different type of player, right?

Speaker 135 He's a guy that wants to run it a little bit more

Speaker 135 than Patrick Mahomes. And he's an above-average thrower of the football in the pocket, but when he's dangerous, is when he gets out of the pocket.
That's when he can make the big plays.

Speaker 135 So that's basically my scouting report on those two quarterbacks.

Speaker 48 Can you spin it?

Speaker 83 Can you still spin it?

Speaker 52 Oh, yeah.

Speaker 135 Yeah, from here to there.

Speaker 45 Darn always.

Speaker 135 I mean, I throw a little bit, but not.

Speaker 128 We saw that commercial. You threw the ball into Messi's boat.

Speaker 88 Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 52 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 52 That was a rocket.

Speaker 135 That was a rocket. That thing went about 150 yards.

Speaker 52 Which we still expect.

Speaker 140 Thank God for video cameras.

Speaker 119 Hey,

Speaker 41 when people talk to you about your quickest release and everything like that, your accuracy, and then the yards you threw for, there's always like the modern day yards where people are like, this offense now, the new rules are built for this.

Speaker 13 It'll be like 2021 2023 yardage and then fucking dan marino slides yeah

Speaker 7 it's like back in like old school football

Speaker 73 dan marino's in there for yardage and everything like that and obviously you have to have a team buy-in for you to play that way but you have to have an ability for people to debunk how football was then at that time my old man says that you worked that with your dad like every day of your life almost like

Speaker 135 obsession almost yes with like the trying to work on your release and the other thing i did which you know i tell all young quarterbacks and even kids, high school kids, college kids, is the jump rope.

Speaker 135 My dad made me jump rope from the time I was little because it keeps you, your mind and your feet in the same rhythm in a small area.

Speaker 135 Which a small area is, is a pocket, you know, and that was, to me, my dad was a Teamster truck driver. And I thought that was genius.
That's genius, really.

Speaker 31 Absolutely.

Speaker 1 And a Teamster's got a lot of good ideas.

Speaker 52 That's what I do too.

Speaker 52 People, too.

Speaker 7 That's mess with truck drivers.

Speaker 93 Something fall off the back of that truck?

Speaker 135 There were some things that fall off the back of the truck.

Speaker 119 My dad was a truck driver as well.

Speaker 76 So he's had some genius ideas.

Speaker 77 I didn't even think about, I didn't even think about jump rope.

Speaker 36 That seems genius. Were we doing this for the first time?

Speaker 150 Oh, I could, yeah, I could talk about it.

Speaker 50 You're doing all the shit.

Speaker 135 Yeah, but now I can't do anything. My legs are gone.
But when I was, you know, playing during my years playing, I did that all.

Speaker 15 Debut, Miami Dolphins, Die Hard Fantasy.

Speaker 160 I was a South Florida kid, both parents from Carroll City, so right behind Joe Robbie Stadium. Also appreciate everything you did, obviously.
What's your thoughts on?

Speaker 160 We had the honors last night, NFL honors, two great deserving quarterbacks with Josh Allen, Lamar Jackson. What's your thoughts on MVP this year?

Speaker 92 Well,

Speaker 135 I think both of them could have won just as easily.

Speaker 135 Lamar Jackson had a great year. Awesome, but they didn't really advance, you know, and maybe it's because Josh got a little closer, I think, you know, and

Speaker 135 he really takes over games too, just like Lamar does.

Speaker 135 I just think it was his year because how he was running the football and critical situations, you know, the playoff games where he came from behind, winning those games.

Speaker 135 I mean, those are the kind of times when you look at a guy and say, okay, yeah, you know, he's the MVP.

Speaker 67 Gotcha.

Speaker 135 You know, so I mean, I would have voted for either one of them. Yeah.
And they both deserve it.

Speaker 99 Do you guys get a vote, ex-MVP?

Speaker 135 No, no, no.

Speaker 52 They don't care about you.

Speaker 109 They only care about this guy.

Speaker 138 He's associated.

Speaker 52 He got a vote.

Speaker 88 Oh, man.

Speaker 52 I got to call somebody up.

Speaker 135 That's bullshit.

Speaker 62 I agree, Dan. I agree.

Speaker 93 Speaking about Josh, though,

Speaker 93 there was a lot of talk after this last loss to the Chiefs, another loss to the Chiefs, another loss to Patrick Holmes. People said they started feeling bad for Josh Allen.

Speaker 93 Is he ever going to get the big one?

Speaker 93 What is your take on that since

Speaker 93 you were an unbelievable all-time great quarterback? What's your take on Josh and getting to the big one?

Speaker 135 So, you know, I think Josh Allen, if you talk to him, him, he's extremely disappointed. He'll think about losing that playoff game and having his chance.
But also,

Speaker 135 he's a tough dude. He's mentally tough.
He don't miss games. He's been playing at a high level for five, six years now.
So I think he feels like he'll get back and get over that hump.

Speaker 135 But then the truth of the matter is I went in the second year and I never got back.

Speaker 135 got close just like him a lot of times. So he'll deal with it.
He'll be fine.

Speaker 117 He'll come out of that.

Speaker 140 He will, but he will think about that all offseason.

Speaker 135 And there's a lot of times you do that.

Speaker 120 I did it too. Rest of your life, probably.

Speaker 135 Yeah, I mean, there's some games, yeah.

Speaker 31 Yeah, absolutely.

Speaker 47 I mean, that's a competitor.

Speaker 15 That's what high-end athletes have to deal with.

Speaker 33 You just talked about him being mentally tough and not missing a lot of games.

Speaker 106 How important is it for the quarterback to be like the toughest dude on your team?

Speaker 138 Legitimately.

Speaker 27 Because you guys are.

Speaker 135 It's got to be legit tough, but also mentally tough, you know, and then being able to deal with all the other players and making them tough with you and making the players around you better.

Speaker 135 And he does that. And, you know, Mahomes definitely does that.

Speaker 36 But you quarterbacks are kind of, you know,

Speaker 31 like your whole life.

Speaker 32 Your whole life. You guys are crazy.

Speaker 109 Like legit, even more so now than ever before.

Speaker 135 Because of the amount of money. When I was young, my dad was a truck driver.
I was held up like a, you know.

Speaker 29 No, but I'm saying like the quarterbacks, though, nowadays, these kids in high school are getting paid to

Speaker 52 academies.

Speaker 111 And then in college, they're being paid.

Speaker 13 It's like our team goes as you go, and these kids are like teenagers getting treated like that.

Speaker 36 The ability to remain tough and humble quarterback is going to be difficult, but I think it's a necessity for the position.

Speaker 135 But there's no doubt.

Speaker 135 Yeah, being humble and being tough, and also with all the money they're going to get given, pretty much, you know, while they're going through college, it can make them, like you said, Pittsburgh, it can make them soft a little bit.

Speaker 135 So you've got to have that guy that's mentally tough, that's going to be able, it doesn't matter what the money said, what the money is or what it, you know, all that, that I want to play.

Speaker 135 I want to be the best person I can be for this football team.

Speaker 38 It's hard to find those.

Speaker 149 That's like the most important thing, I think, nowadays when you're finding a guy, like, hey, do you love ball or not?

Speaker 7 Like, I think that is a big deal. Yeah.

Speaker 35 Because these kids are being set up to be soft.

Speaker 3 You know, not their fault.

Speaker 109 Yeah.

Speaker 151 Not their fault.

Speaker 130 Never want to blame them for it. I know, but I don't know.

Speaker 88 Would you get a million dollars when you were 15 or 16?

Speaker 63 I probably could have.

Speaker 135 Yeah.

Speaker 52 I would have taken it.

Speaker 45 We all would have, but can you imagine what you would have became?

Speaker 163 I mean, it's

Speaker 7 going to be a monster.

Speaker 9 I mean, it's unbelievable.

Speaker 112 Connor has a question for you.

Speaker 90 Yeah, Dan, yesterday also, the Hall of Fame class was announced. And obviously, you're a Hall of Famer, and there's a lot of discourse.
Only four guys went in.

Speaker 90 No Adam Vinatari, who we all thought obviously the first ballot Hall of Famer.

Speaker 90 Yeah, sounds like you do too, even though he's a kicker and that's kind of the knock on him, even though he's won damn near more than anybody. Also, no Eli Manning.

Speaker 90 What do you think about kind of the state of the Hall of Fame right now? And what is kind of the standard you would say is to get into the Hall of Fame?

Speaker 90 Because it's kind of blurred almost at this point because Vinny and Eli, they both have the moments, they have the rings, but still they're not getting in on their first ballot try.

Speaker 135 Yeah, I mean, that's the difficult thing because like Chris Carter, I thought Chris Carter would go in on the first ballot. It took him six years.

Speaker 135 So I'm not in on the voting and how they vote and what the decisions are made. But I know that we've been having a lot of classes.

Speaker 135 I don't know this for a fact, but I know we've been having a lot of classes with seven people in them for about the last 10 years.

Speaker 135 And then we had one and there was 20 people because they were making up from

Speaker 135 it and so maybe they're just kind of

Speaker 135 water it down a little bit and let's not have as many guys but whoever is making that decision is probably on the committee sure you know see but now there's four this year right so that means there's gonna be a backup yeah next year and next year's classes

Speaker 90 yeah like they're talking about eli it's like is eli gonna get in next year who knows because of drew breeze yeah and let alone yonda yeah yeah fantasy tough

Speaker 135 next year yeah larry fits do you guys do like uh hall of fame dinners in techs uh no i mean no dinners Yeah, when we go to Hall of Fame, we'll have dinner. Yeah, but what do you mean text? Texts?

Speaker 135 Well, I just, I mean, I talked to Ronnie Lott two days ago, so yeah, we texted each other.

Speaker 137 Little gold jacket texts.

Speaker 67 So big deal?

Speaker 135 Yeah, that's a big Hall of Famer right there.

Speaker 48 Yeah, well, you are as well, Daniel.

Speaker 43 You are as well.

Speaker 56 Obviously, you broke down both quarterbacks.

Speaker 54 What's the story from this game that maybe,

Speaker 70 because we've talked about this now

Speaker 24 1,000 times.

Speaker 52 We've talked about every fucking angle you could possibly have for this thing, Dan.

Speaker 15 So is there anything that you think hasn't been talked about or that you're thinking about whenever you're trying to get to the point?

Speaker 135 So did you talk about how you keep Patrick Mahomes on the sideline, you run the football?

Speaker 52 Yeah.

Speaker 135 You've already talked about that. Yeah.

Speaker 150 Oh, man.

Speaker 96 Give me some other examples.

Speaker 11 Seriously. Stopping Saquon.

Speaker 52 Well,

Speaker 135 that part is huge. Yeah, because that's what they're going to try to do.
They're going to try to run the football and keep Patrick on the sidelines. That's what I would do if I was the head coach.

Speaker 93 Third down?

Speaker 135 Red zone. Yeah.
Yeah. Third down, red zone.
Third down is important always, no matter what game it is. Third down, yeah.
And and scoring in the red zone.

Speaker 135 If Philadelphia, instead of getting field goals, they get touchdowns, putting a little more pressure on Patrick. Yeah.

Speaker 52 How do you feel about that?

Speaker 135 What other angle?

Speaker 9 Special teams, maybe, Dan.

Speaker 21 Might come down to special teams.

Speaker 39 Jake Elliott's missed a couple kicks.

Speaker 21 He's obviously Philadelphia Eagles. He's been great in the past.

Speaker 15 Bucker seemingly never misses in big games.

Speaker 90 They go for it a ton. The Eagles on fourth down.

Speaker 52 Yeah, there's their angle.

Speaker 135 And then

Speaker 31 Taylor Swift is going to be there.

Speaker 135 Taylor Swift, that's an angle right there.

Speaker 67 That is an angle.

Speaker 135 So here's an angle. How many times are we going to

Speaker 135 see Hurt on TV, Dorn?

Speaker 109 What do you think? Over under four and a half?

Speaker 135 Four and a half times on TV? Yeah, I think. I'd say more like 300.

Speaker 45 Okay.

Speaker 48 Okay.

Speaker 52 Over.

Speaker 99 Travis is about to have a big game.

Speaker 111 Yeah.

Speaker 39 That's going to sound like you're saying there.

Speaker 26 Get Travis the Rock, get him into paint.

Speaker 90 Yeah, what about that? Like Travis Kelsey, obviously people throughout the season talk about his stats, and then in the playoffs, he has his best game.

Speaker 90 Are there certain players that are just like that where when the lights come on, you know, they just play their best? There are, and he's one of them.

Speaker 135 You know, he's going to be in the Hall of Fame for sure. Eventually, he may, you know, with the way it's going, he might not be a first bass.

Speaker 135 But he's those kind of...

Speaker 135 I know.

Speaker 135 He's the kind of player that steps up. And he might have been injured a little bit or whatever.
But big game steps up all the time. And that's what you've got to love to be in this situation.

Speaker 128 He's a hooper out there.

Speaker 73 It's kind of the conversation that we had with Fred Warner, who was talking about playing against Travis, because they talk about these Travis routes where who knows what's on the actual call sheet for Travis?

Speaker 99 Yeah, they just had like, did you have anybody like that?

Speaker 109 Yeah, there was guy.

Speaker 135 Well, I mean, I felt like Clayton and Duper would do that a little bit if they felt, you know, because

Speaker 135 I try to read coverages with them, and they would read the coverage.

Speaker 20 You all have to see the same thing.

Speaker 140 We'd see the same thing.

Speaker 135 We'd always talk about it. We'd always talk about it.
And then, so we had that kind of relationship. And then Keith Jackson, Keith Jackson was another one that was like that, you know, the tight end.

Speaker 157 How come everybody doesn't do that?

Speaker 34 What is that? You got to go.

Speaker 140 Oh, I think they do do it.

Speaker 135 It's just a matter of the players and your, I guess, not only the awareness in space, the space of a secondary, but also instincts.

Speaker 135 You know, so you got to, certain guys have that and certain guys don't.

Speaker 135 I mean, it's just, you know, certain guys you tell them to run down here and make it right and they just run right down there and make a right.

Speaker 135 Sometimes you shouldn't. Sometimes you should go down there and turn around.

Speaker 88 Sit in. Find a little window.

Speaker 52 Sit on and turn it up.

Speaker 10 Go ahead, Jeff.

Speaker 160 No, Mark Clayton was one of those guys. You talk about how it's always somebody that pops up on a list from Marino's era.
He's one of those guys.

Speaker 160 We talk about, Saquon, his touchdowns, average distance of his touchdowns over 30 yards. I think Mark Clayton may have been like third on that list.
Yes, yeah,

Speaker 52 big time.

Speaker 85 Oh, yeah, big-time player.

Speaker 135 Yeah, he's awesome, man. I love Mark, and he's another one I thought should be, you know, to get in the Hall of Fame, you know, because the numbers are different, huh?

Speaker 160 No, you had a couple guys from your era, Eric Allen and Sterling Sharp, going this year. What's your thoughts on those guys finally getting in?

Speaker 135 It's great. I mean, I mean, it's the biggest, you know, besides

Speaker 135 your kids or whatever, I mean, that's the biggest day of your life and for your family's life is they get into the Hall of Fame because there's only so many guys that get in and that's it.

Speaker 135 That's forever and ever. So that's, you know, my thoughts are I'm so happy for them, and they're going to enjoy it and enjoy that day.

Speaker 20 There's levels to this shit, too.

Speaker 56 The Hall of Famers, you know, like there's guys that make it in the NFL.

Speaker 26 Then there's like the old pros. Then there's the MVPs.

Speaker 32 Then there's the Hall of Famers.

Speaker 36 That's forever.

Speaker 4 We appreciate all the Hall of Famers for everything they've done for this league.

Speaker 100 Who are you picking to win?

Speaker 135 Kansas City.

Speaker 52 Wow.

Speaker 83 That was very quick.

Speaker 103 Yeah. Did you waffle at all?

Speaker 99 Have you waffled at all since it earlier?

Speaker 135 Yeah, well, I thought

Speaker 62 I want Philly to win just because I don't want to see Kansas City win.

Speaker 160 And a lot of Italians are there.

Speaker 117 Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 135 A lot of Italians. Pennsylvania, I'm Pennsylvania.

Speaker 135 So, yes, Philly. I want Philly to win, but I think Kansas City's going to win.

Speaker 36 Just because they do.

Speaker 135 Exactly. And Patrick Mahomes, number 15, he's pretty good.

Speaker 31 The guy.

Speaker 168 He is. Good player.

Speaker 56 Will they ever be able to win in Miami?

Speaker 169 Legit.

Speaker 159 Two main distractions in Miami?

Speaker 167 Yeah, no, no.

Speaker 135 It's not the distractions. It's just, yeah, we'll get there.
We'll get there.

Speaker 170 What about the narrative that they can't win in the cold?

Speaker 170 As a guy who grew up in Pittsburgh and lived in Pittsburgh, how much of that actually plays in when it's like, you know, you've been in Miami for a long time because, I mean, they have to play in New England late in the season and, you know, in New York.

Speaker 170 Like, it's,

Speaker 170 is that a thing or is that mostly, you know, just a media-driven camera?

Speaker 135 No, I think it is a narrative that's there because you've got to change the narrative if you want someone to stop talking about it. And we haven't done that, really.

Speaker 135 I mean, even when I played, you know, we'd always try to get home field advantage so you don't have to go to Buffalo or you don't have to go to Pittsburgh or Kansas City when it's below zero because we're not used to playing in that stuff.

Speaker 135 So that's the narrative is that we got to win more games and get home field advantage.

Speaker 55 Yeah,

Speaker 8 you feel like you're soft now because you're at the Miami time in Miami?

Speaker 135 I got really soft, especially at, you know, when I retired. Yeah.
I'm soft now.

Speaker 148 How's the golf game?

Speaker 135 Pretty good.

Speaker 7 Yeah? Yeah, it's okay.

Speaker 167 Like, where at?

Speaker 135 I'm like an eight-handicapped.

Speaker 31 Damn.

Speaker 169 You're rolling some putts, it sounds like.

Speaker 161 I make some putts.

Speaker 24 Where do you live now, full-time downflow?

Speaker 27 Fort Lauderdale.

Speaker 31 Fort Lauderdale? Fort Laudie.

Speaker 160 Hockey State.

Speaker 52 That's good. Yeah, we're good.

Speaker 135 And I live not far from the arena. It's fun to go watch those games.
Oh, yeah.

Speaker 172 Yeah, the Panthers.

Speaker 36 You grew up a Pennsy fan?

Speaker 150 Oh, yeah.

Speaker 135 Yeah. Mario Lemieux, obviously.
You know, he's a peer, but then Pierre LaRouche.

Speaker 165 you remember that name?

Speaker 137 Yes, I remember Pierre Laurent.

Speaker 135 That guy, he was old, old.

Speaker 70 Mario Lemieux is a peer.

Speaker 52 Yes. Damn, Rino.

Speaker 65 He's awesome. He's awesome.

Speaker 122 That is.

Speaker 52 Don't know.

Speaker 172 Oh, I did know what you mean.

Speaker 48 No fault. Damn Marino.

Speaker 118 Yeah, but I, you know, right.

Speaker 93 Fucking sense.

Speaker 122 Don't float.

Speaker 11 You know what I'm saying?

Speaker 26 Yep, ladies and gentlemen, Hall of Famer, MVP, Jinzer Legend, Dolphin Hero, Dan Marino.

Speaker 11 Yeah,

Speaker 52 Dan.

Speaker 88 I like that Jinzer legend.

Speaker 11 You are.

Speaker 45 Yes, man. You are.

Speaker 35 Always will be, too. Thanks, brother.

Speaker 88 Hey, thank you.

Speaker 127 It's great being on.

Speaker 67 Thank you, guys. Thank you, man, Dan.

Speaker 44 Thank you, Dan. Appreciate you, man.

Speaker 31 Oh, it's okay. Thanks.

Speaker 96 Awesome.

Speaker 173 Thank you very much.

Speaker 79 Thank you, Dan.

Speaker 2 Thank you, Dan.

Speaker 31 Hey, you look good, Dan.

Speaker 174 Still got it.

Speaker 88 Still got it. Still got it, bro.

Speaker 128 Still bringing it.

Speaker 175 Still got it, Dano.

Speaker 160 Still bringing it.

Speaker 31 Okay, shit. Coach Trisherrington.

Speaker 48 Hey, Coach, thanks for joining us.

Speaker 94 Hey, hey, coach.

Speaker 94 Coach.

Speaker 176 Hey, what a season.

Speaker 39 A lot of podcasts, a lot of media.

Speaker 169 And also, it looks like a lot of fitness.

Speaker 16 You look good, coach.

Speaker 162 How are you feeling?

Speaker 174 I appreciate it. That's probably the best intro I got right there.
Oh, shit.

Speaker 48 Like, I think that's great.

Speaker 11 No, you're surprised.

Speaker 137 That's a good thing, not a bad thing.

Speaker 101 How you doing? I'm great. I'm great.

Speaker 174 Yeah, so I have excellent media training, obviously, coming from Bill at New England. You know, we practiced a lot of, you know, so this is a whole new world for me this year.
It's been a lot of fun.

Speaker 44 Roastmaster just walked by.

Speaker 26 Incredible work, Jeff.

Speaker 28 Honestly, you've just been assassinating people with your your words.

Speaker 41 Hey, the roasts have been amazing.

Speaker 68 What is this?

Speaker 177 An Ugly Lives Matterelle?

Speaker 58 Thank you.

Speaker 45 All right.

Speaker 124 I love you guys.

Speaker 178 Pat, you're the king.

Speaker 7 Ah, what is this?

Speaker 147 An Ugly Lives Matterelle.

Speaker 136 That's good.

Speaker 55 Ah, Jeff, you're the man.

Speaker 179 That was fucked up.

Speaker 126 Do you think he's used that? Sorry, coach.

Speaker 62 Sorry, coach.

Speaker 57 Okay, so had a show with Coach.

Speaker 24 Did some breakdown with NFL Films.

Speaker 4 What is the thought?

Speaker 20 Are we getting back into coaching?

Speaker 29 Are we doing media?

Speaker 77 What is the plan for Matt Patricia?

Speaker 174 Yeah, we're having a lot of fun doing media this week, so it's been great. You know, I can't get on your show, but

Speaker 177 I'm on this side.

Speaker 177 No, I'm just kidding.

Speaker 52 No.

Speaker 123 Right now?

Speaker 174 Media's been great. It's been a lot of fun, but we'll see.
We'll see what happens here in the next couple weeks.

Speaker 107 Okay, we would like to have you next year if you're doing media again.

Speaker 174 I'm in. I'm on.
Let's see.

Speaker 4 We had no idea you were going to be doing media this year, and then whenever we saw you all over things, we were excited for you and your big-ass brain.

Speaker 5 Are we still drawing up plays?

Speaker 39 Are we still Tycondoroguing?

Speaker 23 Have we let go of some of the old ways for this new life?

Speaker 151 What is new in your life?

Speaker 174 We're always studying. We're always coming up with different things.

Speaker 174 The pencil is, you know, that's on hiatus right now.

Speaker 148 What are you doing?

Speaker 12 Are you running 10 miles a day?

Speaker 52 You look unbelievable.

Speaker 103 I appreciate it.

Speaker 174 No, a lot of, you know what? Just as coaches, you know, Deba, you know, like we'd wake up early and nothing to do. So I work out, you know, boxing three days a week, doing a lot of that, which is fun.

Speaker 174 Yeah, boxing was fun. I used to do it when I was a little kid until I got hit.
And those people know how to hit really hard. And I had headgear, and I was like, I think I need a new sport.

Speaker 174 This is not good.

Speaker 32 Virtual reality boxing, real deal.

Speaker 174 Yeah, you know what's great about that?

Speaker 174 Horrible to watch after you're done. Like, your buddy's filming you, and you're like, I better never get in a fight because I'm going to get my ass kicked.

Speaker 52 No, you're going to throw a big, heavy right.

Speaker 148 That's the game in the virtual reality.

Speaker 39 You're going to throw a heavy right.

Speaker 126 Coach, you look amazing.

Speaker 120 Appreciate it.

Speaker 39 What are your thoughts on the game?

Speaker 118 Yeah, I like Philly.

Speaker 177 I think, you know, defensive guy.

Speaker 7 You were there, weren't you?

Speaker 121 I was. I was.

Speaker 174 So I just like what they've done this year, and I think it's going to be a great game. Obviously, it's really hard to bet against Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid, but I'll go with this stat.

Speaker 174 You know, two teams in the Super Bowl that have had the number one defense and the number one rusher in the league. Philadelphia, we'll see how they do, but the other one was the 92 Cowboys.

Speaker 177 So I got to go defense.

Speaker 32 Okay, I love that.

Speaker 180 AJ, you got a question for Coach?

Speaker 121 Yeah, what is Philly going to have to do to win the game?

Speaker 75 Like, obviously, not turn the ball over all of that.

Speaker 121 But does Saquon have to have a monster date? Does Jalen Hurts have to be great? Like, what has to happen?

Speaker 28 Yeah, Spaggs is going to try to stop Saquon.

Speaker 177 Yeah, You got it, right?

Speaker 174 That's the number one thing. Spaggs will take him away.
He'll use some of his blitz packages to kind of, you know, confuse the run game.

Speaker 174 He's got the run blitzes and then probably crowd the line of scrimmage for the passing game and make Jalen's eyes come down.

Speaker 174 But I think the biggest thing for Philly, you know, playing against Mahomes is you got to defend the first play, not the second play. Don't let them out.
Don't let them create.

Speaker 174 You know, Kansas City's just, when you really look at them and why, you know, so many people are like, how are these guys winning? They're just winning. in a different way.

Speaker 174 You know, the early turnovers in the game, they just overcome them. But when you take a look at third down, they're tops in the league.

Speaker 174 When you take a look at the two-minute drives and the calmness that, you know, they go down and just methodically score, you know, those are the areas you really got to focus on if you want to stop them.

Speaker 174 So I think Philly will do a good job on third down. I think that can shorten some of the drives that they have.
And then those situational plays will come up big.

Speaker 120 D-Bud has the last question for you.

Speaker 160 Yeah, those got to have it moment, flavor of the week. I feel like Philly, and especially when you get in a red area, you never know what they're going to pull out of their ass.

Speaker 160 What is it like preparing for KC in that red area compared, I guess, the rest of the league?

Speaker 174 Yeah, you know, and Andy Reid obviously does a great job down there.

Speaker 174 And his staff, they've got that really cool kind of Friday collaboration they do where they get those special plays that they look up and, you know, get that buy-in.

Speaker 174 But, you know, Andy coming from that West Coast background, you know, we're always talking about defensively flat to the left, offensively flat to the right.

Speaker 174 But the thing that Patrick Mahomes has done is he's been able to flip all that. So now you got those two kind of flats either side.
You're trying to defend in the guy-to-habit situations.

Speaker 174 So that makes it really difficult. But again, the extended plays or even just let Patrick run, you know, you can't do that.
You got to make sure you keep him in and you got to get Kelsey.

Speaker 174 He's going to be the guy.

Speaker 77 All right. Well, keep us updated on what you're doing.
I appreciate it.

Speaker 174 So good to see you guys. You guys are the best.

Speaker 179 We're the best.

Speaker 172 Thanks so much. Always.

Speaker 136 Matt Patricia.

Speaker 136 Take care, guys.

Speaker 49 Thank you.

Speaker 81 He knew Pete Carroll was going to throw that ball.

Speaker 79 That's right.

Speaker 134 Uh-huh.

Speaker 135 He did.

Speaker 38 People are still wondering why they didn't give the ball to Marshawn Lynch. Fool.

Speaker 68 Matt Patricia said, I knew they weren't.

Speaker 128 Practiced it.

Speaker 17 That's what we were ready for.

Speaker 164 Saw it in the dark.

Speaker 15 All right, ladies and gentlemen, joining us now.

Speaker 149 Without further ado, I think this man runs the world.

Speaker 134 Yeah, pretty much.

Speaker 82 Every company that

Speaker 181 we do work with, he's in charge.

Speaker 17 Ladies and gentlemen, the man who was the inspo for the character, Ari Gold, Ari Emmanuel.

Speaker 136 Oh, yeah.

Speaker 136 Okay, they're titles.

Speaker 28 They're titles, Ari.

Speaker 17 Learn the business.

Speaker 151 Jesus.

Speaker 95 How was dinner?

Speaker 52 Phenomenal.

Speaker 49 Dinner was good.

Speaker 88 Learn the business.

Speaker 156 Yeah, man.

Speaker 11 All right.

Speaker 182 You guys have arrived here.

Speaker 140 Look at this. Look at this.

Speaker 27 We're the real deal, Ari.

Speaker 95 You guys are real now.

Speaker 20 What Ari's saying there about dinner is obviously we did not plan anything for all the boys.

Speaker 164 Who cared about you guys, but didn't plan anything.

Speaker 37 Well, we got a lot going on, Ari. A lot going on.

Speaker 73 So, you know, table for 20 Super Bowl week in New Orleans is not always easy.

Speaker 151 So I call Ari.

Speaker 84 I say, hey, do you know anybody down here?

Speaker 137 And he goes, ah, and he hangs up on me.

Speaker 169 Then I am in a group text all of a sudden with a bunch of people I don't know.

Speaker 15 And this person will take care of it.

Speaker 82 So then I call you, and I say, I'm not doing that.

Speaker 48 I've never met any of these people.

Speaker 55 And then you chew me out for that. And then all of a sudden, we got dinner at Doris Metropolitan.

Speaker 48 What was it?

Speaker 88 What was it?

Speaker 95 I think he thought I was going to make the reservation.

Speaker 184 Oh. I'm like, what?

Speaker 52 No, not you.

Speaker 36 I wanted you to give me the connection to call said person.

Speaker 88 And it got taken care of.

Speaker 63 Yeah, it was awesome. It was great.

Speaker 43 A lady named Nicole on your team took care of this.

Speaker 81 We had great food.

Speaker 73 So let's talk about your life.

Speaker 148 Okay.

Speaker 119 So we always just assume you're Ari Gold.

Speaker 52 Now,

Speaker 165 after meeting you a little bit more, I think we are more in that belief.

Speaker 83 Yeah, definitely.

Speaker 95 You guys only met me for 15 minutes.

Speaker 48 Yeah, but we hear you.

Speaker 52 We knew that.

Speaker 136 That's all it takes.

Speaker 88 We hear the folk gold.

Speaker 19 They hear you as well.

Speaker 33 You have been an agent your whole life, and then now you just buy everything as an agent still.

Speaker 73 Like, how would you describe who you are to somebody?

Speaker 95 So in 95, I was an agent for four years approximately. Before 95, I started the company Endeavour.

Speaker 95 Had an idea what I wanted to do.

Speaker 95 We're now in 2025.

Speaker 52 Worked out. Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 34 Okay, so Endeavor is an agency?

Speaker 128 Endeavour is an agency.

Speaker 95 It's a marketing company. It's a licensing company.
It's a lot of things.

Speaker 56 Okay, and is Endeavour the head or is now TKO the head?

Speaker 95 So we had Endeavour. Through Endeavour, we bought a bunch of companies.
One of them was UFC.

Speaker 162 Congratulations, Endeavor. Thank you very much.

Speaker 66 Goodbye. Goodbye.
Thank you very much.

Speaker 11 Thank you very much.

Speaker 48 At the time,

Speaker 95 even you were saying like... Me?

Speaker 52 Yeah, you. No!

Speaker 103 That dude's overspent.

Speaker 137 No, not us.

Speaker 88 We would never say that.

Speaker 31 We're overspenders, man.

Speaker 95 And then, you know, we made the television deal, and then we took UFC and we merged it with the WWE.

Speaker 141 And when did you decide you're going to just start buying up these sports conglomerates?

Speaker 151 Because I think in the entertainment world, you entertainment suits kind of stay in your world, and then the sports suits kind of stay in their world.

Speaker 36 Feels like you have legitimately, purposefully tried to get into the sports world.

Speaker 126 And I think it's because you're a sports fan.

Speaker 145 Love sports. I think that is a real deal.

Speaker 95 No, but I saw kind of what was going on in that you had the streamers, you had where cable and where the

Speaker 95 broadcast business was. And if they wanted to get in the advertising business, the only way to really do it in a significant way was being in the sports business.

Speaker 95 And so we, it's just part of the ecosystem of entertainment sports. And so we moved into sports also.

Speaker 73 And you enjoy your time in sports thus far?

Speaker 36 What have you learned about the business of sport maybe that's different than the entertainment business?

Speaker 95 More money.

Speaker 148 In the sports world?

Speaker 161 Yeah.

Speaker 37 I think you found a pretty good idea.

Speaker 89 And also

Speaker 89 you could in,

Speaker 95 you know, we make a lot of money, used to make a lot of money in the television and movie business by packaging stuff, packaging TV shows, the economics were different, and the movie business.

Speaker 87 When we moved into the sports world, we could own

Speaker 95 the asset as opposed to representing the asset. And so when you own an asset, you get

Speaker 95 all the money.

Speaker 182 That's pretty good.

Speaker 124 And that's better.

Speaker 2 Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 146 That's more.

Speaker 56 That's sound business, as you are going to go down his, I think, greatest business.

Speaker 144 You're going to be the greatest businessman of all time?

Speaker 52 Is that what they're going to say about you?

Speaker 95 Nine and close.

Speaker 67 Oh, shut up.

Speaker 31 I want everything.

Speaker 56 I don't know how that would work.

Speaker 95 I don't know. There's a lot of people in tech that are pretty good.

Speaker 155 Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, you're right.

Speaker 74 That's a whole different world.

Speaker 142 Tech business has

Speaker 147 massive platforms. Those are some dogs.

Speaker 122 Yeah, those are some dogs.

Speaker 73 Some dogs business-wise over there.

Speaker 36 And the boys have a lot of questions, but let's talk about this.

Speaker 62 No, hold on one second.

Speaker 95 Did any of you guys see the teaser?

Speaker 136 Yeah,

Speaker 62 Principal P?

Speaker 95 He immediately turned into a movie star.

Speaker 52 He kind of calls me all the time, what do you think?

Speaker 58 How are you thinking about it?

Speaker 52 Oh, it was unbelievable. But I got you to do that was pretty good.

Speaker 137 Yes.

Speaker 48 Okay. Come on, man.

Speaker 52 I put the old Ari Gold fucking.

Speaker 64 So you are lucky that we all grew up watching Entourage.

Speaker 149 Yeah.

Speaker 15 So like, I mean, if you look at our show, it is, you know.

Speaker 88 It's your entourage.

Speaker 42 Not entourage.

Speaker 109 Everybody works, though.

Speaker 107 You know, we're in the follow-up to entourage as opposed to the first season.

Speaker 15 We're in when everybody has jobs and everybody's doing everything.

Speaker 36 But doing shit with your friends, like watching Entourage, like that is possible.

Speaker 71 Okay, we want to do that. But Ari Gold was by far the greatest character in that show.

Speaker 149 Yes.

Speaker 34 And like the way the business got done and the handled, handled, and then the loyalty, you know, at the very end and like the compassion and everything like that.

Speaker 151 Ari Gold was by far.

Speaker 70 So as I start hearing these rumblings of you being the one that they're at, and I got the first chance to get a meeting with you, called Nick Kahn.

Speaker 187 Nick Kahn has to call me now.

Speaker 105 Nick Kahn is president of WWE.

Speaker 108 So he has to call people for him now, you know, because he does him.

Speaker 15 So Nick calls me, he goes, hey, yep.

Speaker 110 Yeah, you got to go meet Ari Emanuel Super Bowl Week.

Speaker 74 This was last year.

Speaker 32 Yeah, yeah. Super Bowl Week last year.

Speaker 162 Is that what we were doing? I believe. Vegas, yes.
Wow.

Speaker 15 I believe it was week last year yeah and nick's like uh hey ari manny wants to meet you uh when's that possible and i'm like i'm leaving on friday they're like well we'll do it on friday then it's like perfect and i just start thinking i think i tell the boys i'm like i'm going to meet ari gold i'm going to meet ari gold then i walk into that room and you're sitting there and then you start talking and it's like This is fucking Ari Gold.

Speaker 49 This is the guy I've been waiting for.

Speaker 169 I've been waiting for somebody to get Vince from the Mentos commercial and being the biggest star on earth.

Speaker 28 That's like an actual agent, like an actual business person.

Speaker 98 I have massive respect for your business acumen and the way you view things, which is why, whenever you pitch something to me, like a commercial for the NFL for Super Bowl, my immediate reaction is no.

Speaker 149 And normally that would be a forever no.

Speaker 168 Just won't let you know that.

Speaker 106 Nah, get the hell out of my face.

Speaker 15 But then if you continue to say, like, hey, you should do this, and then Nick was doing the same thing.

Speaker 73 It's like, all right, let's do it.

Speaker 15 I want to let you know, thank you.

Speaker 103 But you liked it, right?

Speaker 149 I enjoyed it so much. I had so much fun.

Speaker 95 I'm going to tell you right now, Pete Berg said

Speaker 95 he's a natural. Okay.

Speaker 95 Funny as F.

Speaker 81 Well, who's Peter Berg?

Speaker 95 He did Friday Night Lights. He's my best friend.

Speaker 47 Love and Survivor, College Roommate.

Speaker 31 Yep. Yeah.

Speaker 95 And then he just did American Prime Evil. Really good.

Speaker 172 Have you guys seen his story?

Speaker 88 Unbelievable.

Speaker 95 And he's about to do another movie called Mosquito Bow with the same guy that wrote Friday Night Lights, Buzz Bissinger.

Speaker 95 Brian Grazier producing, who produced Friday Night Lights.

Speaker 95 He's going to be in it.

Speaker 45 What? What?

Speaker 49 Yes, he is.

Speaker 122 You're going to be a sergeant.

Speaker 146 Yes, he is.

Speaker 95 He's going to be a sergeant in it.

Speaker 52 You're going to be a good person.

Speaker 152 It's a true story.

Speaker 91 He didn't tell us this. True story.

Speaker 67 World War III.

Speaker 146 We don't know if it's happening.

Speaker 136 This is happening. No, no, no.

Speaker 45 This is happening.

Speaker 124 This is definitely.

Speaker 124 He's already called me on the training.

Speaker 95 I got my friend's father was a sergeant.

Speaker 7 Hey, listen, my friend from high school.

Speaker 188 Yeah.

Speaker 172 But with that being said, as Ari knows, there's a lot of business that needs to be seen.

Speaker 88 He's definitely doing it.

Speaker 52 Could it be a movie?

Speaker 45 Lexo. Could be a big star.

Speaker 172 Holy shit.

Speaker 95 And when you see the commercial, that character could be a movie.

Speaker 114 Okay. I'm serious.

Speaker 52 You like that, too.

Speaker 189 Ted Lasso.

Speaker 157 Yeah, Ted Lasso has talent, though.

Speaker 127 That's a whole different animal.

Speaker 98 I will say, first time ever acting, Peter Berg, obviously I knew who he was.

Speaker 15 I just asked you to explain to people who he was. So cool, so nice.

Speaker 73 Has reached out to me because he knew how self-conscious I was about it all.

Speaker 111 Because, boy, that could go really bad.

Speaker 137 Yeah, sure.

Speaker 77 Because being an actor, everybody could see a bad actor.

Speaker 158 That's why we respect John Cena so much.

Speaker 149 Big go.

Speaker 137 Because John Cena is such a good actor. And Dwayne.
And Rock, good actor.

Speaker 109 There's a lot of people that aren't, you know, that aren't.

Speaker 147 Sure.

Speaker 111 That go out there and do bad.

Speaker 88 Natural.

Speaker 99 You know, well, they just had me be an asshole.

Speaker 120 That's an easy thing to do.

Speaker 28 AJ has a question for you, Ari.

Speaker 121 Yeah, it seems like you do everything, you own everything.

Speaker 181 Is there anything that you could tell us that you want to get into that maybe you haven't dipped your toe into yet in the business world, sports, whatever it may be?

Speaker 95 Well, we're starting to talk about boxing.

Speaker 45 Okay.

Speaker 95 And so we're going to.

Speaker 95 With Dana?

Speaker 121 He's been talking about doing boxing for a long time, right?

Speaker 95 We're kind of looking at that right now.

Speaker 121 Can you revive boxing?

Speaker 121 Where is boxing right now, I guess, compared to maybe 20 years ago?

Speaker 95 Well, I think he got the OLLI Act that I think heard it.

Speaker 95 Hopefully, who knows what's going to happen with the OLLI Act, and then Dana's got a plan for boxing. We'll see.

Speaker 95 You know, there's a lot of work, a lot of wood that's got to be chopped there, but we're looking at it pretty seriously.

Speaker 15 Hey, that's a uh, that would make sense with the TKO group, obviously.

Speaker 104 Wrestling, fighting, boxing in there.

Speaker 15 Yeah, and I don't know how much, how much is there a collaboration between those two companies with you, or are they just

Speaker 52 the

Speaker 95 back office? We saved a lot of money and kind of got more efficient.

Speaker 95 You know, there has been UFC fighters, as we know, that have gone to the WWE. Definitely.
There's been some WWE people that have fought in UFC. But that's not the normal.

Speaker 7 How about business-wise, though? Like,

Speaker 95 when we go out and we make sponsorship deals or site fees in different countries in different states, all that stuff, yes.

Speaker 15 Okay, because the boxing world, Nick Kahn, the president of WWE,

Speaker 176 dog, obviously.

Speaker 70 I think he grew up in Vegas.

Speaker 87 Yes. Loves boxes.
He was started in. Yeah.

Speaker 137 Like he loves boxing.

Speaker 119 And Dana does too, right?

Speaker 95 Dana started out in boxing.

Speaker 47 Bingo.

Speaker 120 That could be like a real passion project, plus something that could save a sport.

Speaker 43 D-Bun has a question for you.

Speaker 160 Yeah, from boxing to WWE and heard some negotiation stories about that. But how has the Netflix era been so far as early on? But any surprise, anything surprised you?

Speaker 88 They're incredible partners.

Speaker 95 Bella there has been incredible. Ted Serranos have been incredible.
Shows performing.

Speaker 95 So we are

Speaker 31 thrilled.

Speaker 95 And I think they're happy. The numbers are up

Speaker 90 really good.

Speaker 95 So

Speaker 52 how's that going?

Speaker 33 How do you end up with Netflix?

Speaker 106 Because I assume there's other streaming platforms, just like in the NFL.

Speaker 15 Prime's getting involved in this entire thing.

Speaker 20 We assume it's only a matter of time before Google maybe does a little bit more with YouTube.

Speaker 38 They have a lot of money.

Speaker 108 They could probably get into it.

Speaker 41 X is going to start streaming things.

Speaker 33 How does Netflix become the one that the WWE goes with?

Speaker 95 So I had a breakfast with Bella, started talking about. Bella.
Who's Bella? Bella, she runs all of content and programming underneath Ted Sarandos at Netflix.

Speaker 7 Hey, Bella, you're doing a great job.

Speaker 190 Bella, you're doing a great job.

Speaker 39 We here at the Batman Show love what you've done.

Speaker 128 Oh, we did.

Speaker 95 We did a presentation to her, and then all of a sudden, it was first started talking about NXT, actually, and then it just immediately moved to Raw.

Speaker 95 And

Speaker 95 over Christmas,

Speaker 95 a year and a half ago, or whatever,

Speaker 95 we're on a Zoom.

Speaker 31 It's all approved.

Speaker 95 We have to have a conversation with Ted Sarandos. He's in London seeing Stranger Thing play.
We get on the Zoom, Shapiro and I, right before Christmas and the Christmas holiday.

Speaker 95 He's there with his CFO. It all gets done.
We hang up the phone.

Speaker 137 We do a jig.

Speaker 156 Yeah, absolutely.

Speaker 11 You're at Mark Shapiro.

Speaker 52 That's a huge deal. Yeah.

Speaker 35 It's changing the future for shows like us

Speaker 88 and for other shows.

Speaker 22 How much of that do you, because you're old school agent, okay?

Speaker 47 I'm old school. You are old school.

Speaker 71 You've been around a long time. We watch a whole show about you.

Speaker 109 You're 100. In Spo, yeah, you're 100 years old.

Speaker 118 You're in great shape. 64.

Speaker 191 Okay, well, you look like old shape. Hey,

Speaker 31 great shape. Hey,

Speaker 129 hey, put her there.

Speaker 15 Because I'm going to call from this asshole.

Speaker 104 Cold tub, hot tub, infrared, so on.

Speaker 31 Wow. Red light.

Speaker 158 Yeah, sorry, red light.

Speaker 83 He's got the ball, you know, the ball to roll on the muscles.

Speaker 48 Roll at the crank.

Speaker 95 You know what I touch him if he's going to be a movie star?

Speaker 62 Got to get in a little shake. Okay.

Speaker 52 I'm comfortable.

Speaker 88 You know, I'm comfortable.

Speaker 4 But there is reasons to do things, and that would certainly be the case.

Speaker 56 But like, you've had to adapt now, right?

Speaker 15 And the streaming deal is a massive deal for the future, as also been in part of the past.

Speaker 36 What do you see in the future?

Speaker 15 All these platforms are just going to continue to just...

Speaker 95 Well, you know, you have linear fallen off pretty.

Speaker 169 Still exists.

Speaker 88 Still exists.

Speaker 95 It's not going away. And you know, you had the NFL made a 10-year deal.
NBA made it a deal. We started it making a broadcast streaming, linear deal plus streaming.

Speaker 95 And I think that that will be kind of the norm of it all. But the original premise in 95 was there's going to be significant amount of distribution and content is going to be limited.

Speaker 95 The things that create content, you guys, the NFL, the NBA, us.

Speaker 117 WWE, UFC.

Speaker 95 Therefore, the value of those things are going to be more valuable with infinite, it's just supply and demand. And that, I think, bodes well for people that create content.

Speaker 95 UFC, WWE, bull riding, all the things that we're doing, boxing, et cetera. So I'm feeling good.

Speaker 47 Yeah, and it's content.

Speaker 88 You guys should be feeling good.

Speaker 117 We are. Oh, yeah.

Speaker 21 Yeah, don't you worry about that, buddy.

Speaker 70 You get that $5 billion deal done with the Netflix, and it's like, well, WWE just did a $5 billion deal.

Speaker 105 The NFL just did at least a billion-dollar deal.

Speaker 158 We're connected to all parties.

Speaker 7 We are also live.

Speaker 88 Yes.

Speaker 48 That is great.

Speaker 152 Thank you, Ari.

Speaker 66 Thank you.

Speaker 111 Hey, Ri, thank you for getting the sports, Ari.

Speaker 21 We appreciate you bringing the brain over there. Connor has a question for you.

Speaker 90 Yeah, speaking of sports, and you mentioned the NBA there. Why do you think kind of the NBA and

Speaker 90 the NHL, MLB is kind of a different story, but those two in particular haven't seen the growth in success that the NFL has over the past few years?

Speaker 95 You mean on ratings or on

Speaker 119 ratings, just on ratings.

Speaker 90 Because the NBA on digital, like we talk about all the time, the clips do well.

Speaker 51 You have 82 games.

Speaker 95 And so

Speaker 95 what's important, you know, kind of in that series. And I think Adam did a great job with the early playoff concept that he had.
Yeah.

Speaker 95 You have 164 games in baseball, go Cubs.

Speaker 95 You know, so I think that's the hard part of it.

Speaker 95 But there, you know, I think once people get comfortable, and you know, you also had the local stations, the RSN wants the Fox deal when it has problems, so they're cleaning that up.

Speaker 95 On the local markets, it's very good. Are they going to go direct the teams or not? So, when you look, you got to look at the aggregate of the rating system,

Speaker 95 not just the national numbers.

Speaker 192 How about the NBA?

Speaker 104 Let's expand on that a little bit.

Speaker 158 Luca Donchik is now a Laker.

Speaker 52 Yes.

Speaker 16 Yeah, you love the Lakers.

Speaker 52 I'm a Bulls fan

Speaker 95 and a Lakers fan.

Speaker 48 Come on.

Speaker 48 That's bullshit.

Speaker 52 I love that.

Speaker 124 That's a dumb coach West card.

Speaker 49 Shut up.

Speaker 52 That's ridiculous.

Speaker 183 Who's talking to you?

Speaker 11 Yeah, you're a fool.

Speaker 71 Yeah, that sounds like a little bit of bullshite, but with that being said, you're one of.

Speaker 3 Can you say that here?

Speaker 52 Oh, yeah.

Speaker 19 Oh, yeah, I negotiated the deal.

Speaker 7 You can say those words.

Speaker 137 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 83 There is a little bit of.

Speaker 162 I hear a lot of people.

Speaker 95 In my family, if you couldn't use a four-letter word, there was no conversation.

Speaker 7 In my family as well.

Speaker 15 Yeah, that is a lot of things in a lot of people's convos, especially on the internet.

Speaker 36 So it's kind of an archaic model not to say words like shit, which are completely A-ok everywhere else, but somehow not on TV in the afternoon.

Speaker 15 Whatever the case, people are upset about that.

Speaker 76 Negotiate it into your deal.

Speaker 80 That is, just go ahead and do that.

Speaker 53 But the NBA, this felt like a work, didn't it?

Speaker 30 This felt like a work with Luca going to the Los Angeles Lakers.

Speaker 106 Everybody feeling the same way about it.

Speaker 70 Shout out to Anthony Davis and Kyrie.

Speaker 149 We think you're a great basketball team, honestly.

Speaker 52 I think

Speaker 36 you don't deserve that.

Speaker 15 But Luca's 25, the future of the league.

Speaker 107 And he somehow just gets traded to Los Angeles.

Speaker 95 And then they get Mark Williams after that with a,

Speaker 95 I mean, unbelievable.

Speaker 32 So you're very pumped as a Lakers fan.

Speaker 56 What about for the NBA as a whole?

Speaker 95 I think it's great. I think, you know, everybody was nervous about the trade deadline.
You can't make any moves.

Speaker 128 This trade deadline was insane.

Speaker 95 Like, everybody was flying around.

Speaker 52 Rumors all the time.

Speaker 95 Everybody was paying attention to it.

Speaker 86 I think it's incredible for the sport.

Speaker 103 Kevin Durant, allegedly, not happy about it.

Speaker 45 No, he's not happy.

Speaker 183 He's not happy about him.

Speaker 52 Only

Speaker 114 the Bulls

Speaker 95 traded to get their pickback that they traded.

Speaker 31 Yeah.

Speaker 105 Why don't you buy the team, Bub?

Speaker 161 Terrible franchise.

Speaker 79 That's terrible.

Speaker 93 That city sucks now.

Speaker 193 Jeez.

Speaker 95 Well, they used to be great when there was a great mayor there.

Speaker 52 Oh, I mean, like.

Speaker 58 Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, good family.
Good family.

Speaker 62 I'm talking about your brother.

Speaker 88 I want to ask you a question.

Speaker 95 So,

Speaker 95 Elimination Chamber, March 1st.

Speaker 165 Toronto.

Speaker 95 I think there's some pretty good things going to happen there.

Speaker 31 Do you think so? Oh, I do.

Speaker 146 Wow, what are you in the writers' room?

Speaker 45 What is this guy?

Speaker 190 What is this guy?

Speaker 52 What is this guy?

Speaker 34 How involved in all these businesses are you?

Speaker 83 You're updated every single day?

Speaker 117 I'm in them.

Speaker 95 I'm not in them. Like, I don't pick the fights and I don't pick what's going on at the WWE.

Speaker 95 But on the business side, yeah.

Speaker 62 But I just, I hear things.

Speaker 186 Okay, so we talk to football people.

Speaker 159 A 73-year-old just got hired back again as a head coach.

Speaker 73 Bill Belichick just went to college.

Speaker 57 Chuck Pogano, our guy, just went back on a team after saying he wasn't going to do that ever again.

Speaker 12 Some people in the football world are addicted to football.

Speaker 186 It's like, coaches, you are always going to be in business.

Speaker 106 You just feel like you're always trying to figure out a business, trying to figure out a plan, trying to conquer a business, conquer a strategy.

Speaker 73 Is that how you feel like you're always going to be in?

Speaker 62 You know, here's what I would say.

Speaker 12 Could you ever take time off?

Speaker 95 Here's what I would say.

Speaker 95 People say, oh, you work out.

Speaker 95 I only want to be healthy. I don't want to live forever.
And I only want to work if I'm still curious and I'm still happy and I'm still learning. And I'm still curious, I'm happy, and I'm learning.

Speaker 95 So I'll still be doing it.

Speaker 62 Eventually, you know, that won't be the case, but I love it.

Speaker 162 Well, we appreciate the hell what you've done for us.

Speaker 52 Incredible.

Speaker 13 Both for other companies, that'll help us probably in the future.

Speaker 120 And also directly for us.

Speaker 151 Most recently, a 20-person reservation

Speaker 194 within an hour. Phenomenal.
And a phenomenal

Speaker 58 cheesecake.

Speaker 95 I'm happy.

Speaker 47 Cheesecake is so good.

Speaker 181 What's Tono's one? Yeah, I do.

Speaker 93 Pat just reminded me of it when he said, you know, I negotiated my own deal. I could say whatever I want.
Have you ever, you've known him for a year.

Speaker 93 You ever work with someone like him that does anything like that?

Speaker 191 Come on, buddy.

Speaker 31 Yeah.

Speaker 27 Who?

Speaker 149 So I can find out.

Speaker 48 Well, I mean,

Speaker 95 every client is unique, but they all are individuals. They all have their own shtick.

Speaker 52 I mean,

Speaker 95 Larry David, you know, he does what he wants to do. Marty Scorsese does what he wants to do.
Seth McFarlane does what he wants to do. They all have their own thing.
And it's incredible.

Speaker 95 That's what makes them great artists.

Speaker 73 How many, so you rep all those guys you just talked about?

Speaker 21 Yes.

Speaker 52 Very good guys.

Speaker 2 Very good guy.

Speaker 95 Pilot Perry, he does what he wants to do.

Speaker 101 So you're not unique.

Speaker 103 Who don't you rep?

Speaker 95 Full time, I don't represent your ass.

Speaker 58 Yeah.

Speaker 52 And that's a good spot to be.

Speaker 36 I think, no, we're very lucky that you've been working your ass off for us, though.

Speaker 120 Thank you for stopping by. What are you in town for?

Speaker 95 I got the lunch at Fanatics. I got a couple meetings.

Speaker 33 What are you doing at the Fanatics Lunch?

Speaker 180 You serving food?

Speaker 88 No, no, I got a couple meetings there.

Speaker 48 Oh,

Speaker 95 Finishing me.

Speaker 52 How much I want to jump on?

Speaker 144 You own Fanatics?

Speaker 95 We have an investment.

Speaker 73 Okay, there's a lot of people in the sports, you need to know this.

Speaker 15 A lot of people in the sports world are not necessarily thrilled that Fanatics is the only option.

Speaker 149 Yep.

Speaker 107 And that maybe it doesn't get right.

Speaker 102 What don't they get right? A lot of stuff.

Speaker 7 Jerseys.

Speaker 136 Yeah.

Speaker 96 A lot of customer complaints.

Speaker 95 We got to get a list from you guys.

Speaker 85 We got to have a meeting.

Speaker 31 It's on Twitter.

Speaker 19 We can aggregate the information if you're going to be able to do it.

Speaker 118 But it's out there.

Speaker 93 Okay. It's going to cost you.

Speaker 95 Do you think the just because I'm a bear fan, as as you guys know, we didn't talk Bears, but that's okay.

Speaker 52 Don't worry about it. Definitely talk Bears.

Speaker 95 Do you think they're going to have to sell?

Speaker 92 Oh.

Speaker 129 Well, okay, you look eager.

Speaker 95 And what do you think the price is going to be?

Speaker 52 Are you buying them?

Speaker 111 It would be $8, $9 billion

Speaker 170 in Chicago. Don't you think it might be...

Speaker 80 $10? $10 plus?

Speaker 103 What's this one?

Speaker 95 One of the only NFC teams, only one team?

Speaker 162 Sure. Think about it.
How much would it be?

Speaker 183 I think it's got to be between $8 and $10, right?

Speaker 31 Yeah.

Speaker 95 What, Washington went for 6.5?

Speaker 31 Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 138 Probably 8.

Speaker 101 8, 9.

Speaker 90 Build the new stadium, too?

Speaker 15 What do you think? What is the chance of the 20?

Speaker 118 I love the Bears.

Speaker 62 I love what we're doing.

Speaker 103 I love the coaching staff now.

Speaker 31 Now.

Speaker 138 Yeah. You love the quarterback.

Speaker 102 I love the quarterback.

Speaker 85 I love what we're going to do with our pick.

Speaker 48 Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 45 Yeah.

Speaker 58 You lost.

Speaker 170 Buddy just brought it up, so you feel like they have to sell.

Speaker 101 Because you think that...

Speaker 95 I mean, there's tax issues.

Speaker 170 But that's also the discussion with that family is like, hey, they do have a new coaching staff. They have Caleb Williams.
They're exciting.

Speaker 170 But this family ultimately has just continually fucked it up for the last 50 years.

Speaker 31 Why do you have to hurt somebody like that?

Speaker 83 I'm just saying.

Speaker 88 Why do you have to go there? Dude, you really have to go there?

Speaker 101 I'm the Packers fan, too.

Speaker 36 He enjoys all of it that it happens, but you're thinking there's a chance that they're going to have to.

Speaker 95 There is a tax issue unless they've covered it in a state planning.

Speaker 21 So you're projecting $8 to $10 billion, and that would be something you could figure out.

Speaker 102 I don't know if I could figure it out, but that's a hell of a team.

Speaker 48 Hell of a city.

Speaker 172 Hey, we'd love a percentage.

Speaker 136 Yeah, that'd be awesome.

Speaker 18 Darius J.

Speaker 16 Brothers is looking very cool.

Speaker 42 How'd the casino go?

Speaker 160 You know what?

Speaker 161 Terrible.

Speaker 160 Absolutely terrible. Got my ass kicked in the quickest fashion I think ever.
I don't think I ever gamble in the city again.

Speaker 106 They've been taking a lot of money from a lot of us.

Speaker 130 Damn shame.

Speaker 102 Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 43 I seen Tyranisha yesterday.

Speaker 137 Okay.

Speaker 88 Yep. Wasn't her fault.

Speaker 103 That's how you say her name?

Speaker 9 Yeah, well, it's T-A-R-O-N-I-S-I-A.

Speaker 43 Okay. So I said, Tyranisha.

Speaker 82 Thought I nailed it.

Speaker 67 Wrong.

Speaker 80 Love names.

Speaker 139 Said it 10 times, and she said, it's Tyranisha.

Speaker 139 I said, that's all me. 100%.

Speaker 4 I need a little bit more accent, I think, down here, because the way they speak here is wonderful.

Speaker 137 I love it.

Speaker 82 It is fantastic.

Speaker 130 Just hearing it makes you feel good, the way the conversation goes about it.

Speaker 15 But that casino has been rude.

Speaker 56 It has been greedy.

Speaker 76 It has been doing shit you're not supposed to do, one after another.

Speaker 159 You'll tell a story one time about a seven-card and 21 the dealer got me.

Speaker 119 That's happening on a regular basis at these tables speaking of shit.

Speaker 160 You're not supposed to do you guys

Speaker 160 undersold

Speaker 160 Bill on the blackjack table.

Speaker 80 Yeah, Bill

Speaker 7 Bill's a little

Speaker 112 He's an independent thinker on that blackjack table.

Speaker 103 He's a fool.

Speaker 93 I now understand why Chuck wanted to kill him last year.

Speaker 55 Yeah, he's he's unpredictable out there.

Speaker 24 You know a lot of part of blackjack there's like a book.

Speaker 170 Sure.

Speaker 15 And the book was created because like, hey, this is the smartest way to go about doing this.

Speaker 16 Pretty easy game, too. Pretty cut and dry.

Speaker 31 No doubt.

Speaker 21 This is kind of the smart, here's the smart move.

Speaker 103 Now, you can venture off the trail a little bit, depending upon how you feel.

Speaker 15 You know, if you have a pretty good read on maybe what cards are left, which not saying you count cards, but if there's a lot of faces coming early, you got to think to yourself, wait, what's coming?

Speaker 54 Is it going to be a bus card or is it going to be a small card?

Speaker 176 So you can kind of feel.

Speaker 44 You can start kind of feeling things a little bit, but you're trying to stay on like a hey, this is how the game is played

Speaker 52 path for the good of everybody.

Speaker 90 right yep yeah bill doesn't think like that bill's like hey listen this book bullshit these rules i don't like them he didn't want to even hit on a single digit he had eight and he stayed he stayed like just a regular eight like yeah so i'm gonna stay yep he thinks like a serial killer guys i'm gonna stay didn't want to bust now we tried to tell him that any card could come and he would still be in the hand sure which we liked that he was trying to stay in the hand you know because every once in a while there'll be a bus card out there four or five or six And Bailey's like, you know what?

Speaker 14 I'm at 15.

Speaker 147 Let me go ahead and let me.

Speaker 88 Yeah, big one. Well, that happened too.

Speaker 52 Come on, let me get one.

Speaker 25 Don't need to be doing that.

Speaker 19 Their hand's probably going to bust, Bill.

Speaker 69 This isn't about beating their number.

Speaker 56 It's about beating them every single time. And if they're going to bust, let them.

Speaker 70 We just stay alive, Bill.

Speaker 7 Okay, okay, you got it.

Speaker 104 Four comes around. Bill, this is when we want to eat here.

Speaker 165 Yep.

Speaker 72 This is when you want to really do it.

Speaker 151 Bus.

Speaker 6 Bill, bus out.

Speaker 118 Okay. As he should.
He'll bust out.

Speaker 127 Taylor hits 21. The man stayed on an eight.

Speaker 79 I almost flipped the table.

Speaker 72 You did get up and leave.

Speaker 21 But I would like to let the world know that

Speaker 41 those cards could have gone our way still with Bill messing up.

Speaker 105 Sure. But they definitely didn't.

Speaker 161 No.

Speaker 7 And we lost every hand. No.

Speaker 98 It was unbelievable, truly, what these casinos have done for us. But I say the times have been magical.

Speaker 24 The boys have enjoyed it.

Speaker 42 AJ Hawk, obviously, you won a Super Bowl.

Speaker 98 We've covered a bunch of Super Bowls.

Speaker 14 What are your thoughts on New Orleans thus far as the host?

Speaker 121 New Orleans is pretty sweet. I mean, obviously, it's a little unique, a little little different than what Phoenix, Las Vegas, we've been the last few years.
But New Orleans has its own feel.

Speaker 121 Like, walking to dinner was pretty cool last night.

Speaker 121 We walked across, like, I think you mentioned it, it was like a movie set, a couple different things.

Speaker 83 French quarters, I think.

Speaker 7 Yeah, different areas, like all the cool buildings.

Speaker 162 Like, New Orleans is cool.

Speaker 121 Like, it has its own identity.

Speaker 127 I enjoy it.

Speaker 121 I don't know how, yeah, I mean, it would be much different living here as opposed to coming here for three, four, five days, but it's cool, man.

Speaker 168 I like it. I like the vibe.

Speaker 43 It's a host city. Yeah,

Speaker 139 that is definitely what it is.

Speaker 106 They want you to come and have a good time.

Speaker 15 Yeah, I was trying to ask people where we were because there was even like a Tostitos chip and sip.

Speaker 52 Yeah, like little Super Bowl party. Super party, yeah.

Speaker 106 Snack Town.

Speaker 90 Outside.

Speaker 44 In the middle of like the French Quarters area, I guess, is where we were, which is a movie.

Speaker 15 Normally in most cities, those are terrible.

Speaker 68 Yes. Normally, there's nobody at these things because it's like, I'm not going to a commercial right now.

Speaker 187 Sure.

Speaker 15 Last night, band was playing.

Speaker 171 Yeah, packed out.

Speaker 68 Packed out filled up.

Speaker 13 There was, I think, Reggie Bush was doing a meet and greet somewhere.

Speaker 90 Saw Howie.

Speaker 130 Saw Howie Rosenwalked walked up i mean it was just like uh see it was alive it felt good last night then we went in at casino yeah

Speaker 93 and they said you had fun didn't you yeah that's gonna cost you all the funny son of a bitch hairs raking the chips and what i think i've learned thus far is when you go into your pocket and you get that next round of money that always works yeah every time usually i believe you said that those exact words to me last night yeah you always get back like that's why people do that like hey you know what you have more and you dump it out it always works so you're going to get back you know that doesn't just disappear quicker normally because you're in in the middle of a spiral, so now you're making even more ridiculous decisions.

Speaker 108 And that's when they got you.

Speaker 103 You know, when they got you in the middle of that blizzard of L's, it's tough to keep up.

Speaker 160 Got to know to stop. Like, once you start doing shit, you had no game plan to do, like, oh, you know what? I'll just do a cash event.
So, you know what?

Speaker 160 Hey, AQ, can you just Venmo me or I Venmo you somebody's gonna be a bad person?

Speaker 93 We didn't know JQ, you know, was a professional blackjack player. Yeah, he went to MIT.

Speaker 93 He went to MIT.

Speaker 11 He knows exactly how to go to spot up.

Speaker 11 This guy.

Speaker 115 That all depends on the shoe.

Speaker 111 Because, boy, he had it figured out.

Speaker 125 Yeah, he did.

Speaker 125 He got one to MIT. Yeah, he did.

Speaker 113 Hey, when it's going good on the double deck, it goes good. When it goes bad, it goes bad real quick.

Speaker 88 Real quick.

Speaker 52 I put the profits away, and before long, I was pulling those profits out.

Speaker 52 That's bad move.

Speaker 55 Yeah, I'm sure.

Speaker 13 The double deck was really a big brain creation from you.

Speaker 179 Better odds.

Speaker 16 Hey, I'll be able to count these cards.

Speaker 59 Got eight aces.

Speaker 18 Got 32 tens. This is easy.

Speaker 19 This is no problem.

Speaker 37 Two decks.

Speaker 146 I won't go one-on-one.

Speaker 120 He watched that 21 movie.

Speaker 11 He had it doing hand signals.

Speaker 48 Oh, yeah.

Speaker 88 Yep. Whole thing.

Speaker 128 Magazine, magazine.

Speaker 144 Dude lost 800 bucks in four hands.

Speaker 37 He thought the numbers were right there.

Speaker 88 He couldn't get to the ATM quick enough.

Speaker 134 Yeah.

Speaker 169 It's hard. It's a hard game.

Speaker 13 That's why I like Dana, how he wins, and like he gets kicked out of places.

Speaker 158 It's like that dude actually has to count these cards. Yeah.

Speaker 26 And like, if you are counting the cards, I don't know how you do it.

Speaker 73 There's so many things you got to keep track of.

Speaker 15 Yeah.

Speaker 73 I've not figured out Blackjack yet.

Speaker 137 That one is a.

Speaker 121 Dana leaves. Dana says, he's like, I live in Vegas.
I'm not just popping by. If I get up 800K, I get up and leave, and I get out of there instead of staying and giving it all back.

Speaker 127 They want you to stay up.

Speaker 158 And I wonder if that's why all the casinos kick them out. Probably.

Speaker 88 That's okay.

Speaker 106 Yeah, just come by once a night.

Speaker 52 I don't think so, Paul.

Speaker 7 Pause your hands.

Speaker 118 Yeah, it is such a good game, though.

Speaker 90 When times are high, we had probably one good deck at our table. And when everyone's celebrating, everyone's winning.
We went in with a plan. Like, hey, we're sitting on 16.
we're not hitting.

Speaker 90 And when those kind of work out, it was worked.

Speaker 52 It worked for a whole shoot.

Speaker 51 It worked for an entire deck.

Speaker 88 It was incredible.

Speaker 145 We're all going to play like assholes.

Speaker 52 Well, well, it's got to be consistent.

Speaker 51 I mean, this is, yeah, exactly. It's the consistency.

Speaker 90 And when you get, you know, someone who's hitting when the dealer's showing four and they have a 15 or a 16, that's when it becomes, hey, what's this asshole doing?

Speaker 51 But if we're in it together as a team.

Speaker 90 team, then at least we're all assholes.

Speaker 56 And staying on 16 whenever a dealer potentially has a made hand already is just as bad as taking a card

Speaker 15 that you could potentially bust against a bus card because you don't even have a qualifying hand yet, which I understand if we're staying on 16, we're all doing it.

Speaker 139 But I want to let you know, if I'm just sitting next to somebody that's just staying on 16, whenever there is a 9-10 face out in front of me, I'm going to have a tough time.

Speaker 163 That did happen with a couple 12, 13s.

Speaker 90 There's no doubt that that number did drop a couple times, and that did end up screwing us. But because, you know, we all know each other, we're all hanging out, it's not Bill.

Speaker 90 You know, that kind of helps.

Speaker 79 Good times at the table.

Speaker 126 Such good times.

Speaker 93 It is. For a little bit.

Speaker 170 For a little bit, you know.

Speaker 170 Then, you know, you get your teeth kicked. And I think that's the biggest problem is last time we were here, everyone won, and that's just all we were saying coming in the entire week.

Speaker 7 Winning casino.

Speaker 197 Got a winning casino. Just gives you money.

Speaker 170 It's a giving casino, if you guys do recall. So, you know, you lose the first night.

Speaker 171 Hey, but remember, guys,

Speaker 170 this is a giving casino. It's going to give it back to you.
It doesn't inevitably. Should have known right away.
Walk down. Boom.
That's not a Harris. That's a a Caesars.
I mean, it just...

Speaker 115 Different casino. Yeah, different.

Speaker 45 Different vibes, different winners, different losers.

Speaker 54 Was that the crap's table?

Speaker 68 That one great.

Speaker 159 Sure. Four minutes.

Speaker 149 All the chips gone.

Speaker 53 No, it's in the... It was quick.

Speaker 158 Took longer for me to get all my chips onto my bets than for me to roll a seven after getting a point.

Speaker 106 I mean, just eliminated so much money just so quickly.

Speaker 12 One round. I'm like, you know what?

Speaker 19 This is good.

Speaker 73 I'll go back to blackjack. Killed again.

Speaker 92 Boom.

Speaker 83 Then I went over a roulette.

Speaker 161 Good time on a roulette.

Speaker 48 Okay.

Speaker 104 Good time on a roulette.

Speaker 15 Not as good as the guy next to me.

Speaker 106 A guy was waiting on a black 11 to hit, and he was just stacking it every single time.

Speaker 107 I guess it came inevitably.

Speaker 168 He won all of his money.

Speaker 119 That has to feel good whenever you hit like that.

Speaker 7 Yeah, weapon.

Speaker 109 Casino's been great.

Speaker 73 New Orleans has been fantastic for one man.

Speaker 14 Josh Allen came down here this week and

Speaker 72 wasn't an MVP.

Speaker 15 And now he'll be leaving New Orleans as the most valuable player in the NFL.

Speaker 73 Congratulations, Josh Allen.

Speaker 88 Hell yeah, Josh.

Speaker 93 Josh.

Speaker 159 Now, there's a lot of conversation, obviously, because Lamar Jackson was first-team all-pro quarterback.

Speaker 21 So everybody assumed, I think since 1987, basically in this particular situation, anybody that's been voted first team all-pro or something like that wins the MVP.

Speaker 3 John Elway, I think, I was reading a statue.

Speaker 18 I think John Elway was the last time that it happened or whatever.

Speaker 68 That TV is so far away, there's no way I could read that.

Speaker 20 But I do appreciate you making me smarter, Foxy.

Speaker 90 Elway MVP, Montana, first team All-Pro.

Speaker 21 And that was 1987.

Speaker 170 Yeah, and then I think it did happen again with Peyton and McNair.

Speaker 120 Okay, so this has happened in the past, past mostly because

Speaker 59 they're saying that it's a statistical award being first-team all-pro, where the MVP is value of player to team.

Speaker 19 And I think that was Dan Orlovsky's argument this morning.

Speaker 169 It was also the conversation all year with the guy who has the AP vote for our particular program, which people in the AP were not happy about us getting a vote.

Speaker 159 No, they were not.

Speaker 155 But now the whole world basically knows who all has votes.

Speaker 68 Fascinating.

Speaker 15 I wonder if there was an uproar amongst other decisions that were made.

Speaker 131 But you guys were voting for most valuable player.

Speaker 22 We saw your

Speaker 159 entry form and you had Josh Allen as MVP.

Speaker 70 Why was that the case and how do you think the awards went last night?

Speaker 93 Yeah, I mean I think I was shocked that Josh Allen won the MVP even though I voted for him as MVP because of how the AP went or how the AP went.

Speaker 93 I also had Josh Allen as my first team quarterback in the all-pro. So I was not one of the voters that decided to put Lamar as first team all-pro and then vote for Josh as MVP.

Speaker 93 You know, it's not a statistical award. The MVP is not.

Speaker 93 We learned that last year when Dak had the best statistics in the league for a quarterback and Lamar won because Lamar was, Lamar's season last year was the most valuable season, even though his statistics were not the best.

Speaker 93 And then I thought this year is my first year voting.

Speaker 93 You know, we had a lot of talk at the beginning of the season that the Bills window was closed. They were done.

Speaker 93 They lost their receivers. They lost their safeties.
They lost other guys off the defense.

Speaker 93 The window was closed for the Bills and they didn't have a chance. And then Josh put the team on his back.
You know, Khalil Shakir was their number one receiver.

Speaker 93 And coming into the season, people are like, you can't win with that as your number one receiver. And I thought Josh just did so much to carry the team.
Not that Lamar didn't.

Speaker 93 I had Lamar as my offensive player of the year because the year he had was historic as well. So I didn't want Lamar

Speaker 93 to be left out completely because of the season he had was unbelievable. But I just thought Josh did more with less.

Speaker 93 Josh had 40 total touchdowns. Lamar had 45.
So, I mean, yes, statistically, Lamar was a little bit better, but I just thought Josh did more with less.

Speaker 93 I thought he was the more valuable player in my eyes.

Speaker 126 Okay, I think that's an okay vote.

Speaker 52 I think that's an okay vote.

Speaker 69 If we look at your ballot, you actually, I think, had it exactly how it ended up

Speaker 44 tallying up for the scores because you get a certain amount of points for first-place votes, a certain amount of points for those other votes.

Speaker 56 And how everybody had it was either Lamar or Josh.

Speaker 74 Lamar or Josh.

Speaker 137 Except for Lamar or Josh.

Speaker 52 Yeah. Well, of course.
Who?

Speaker 93 I can't remember the guy's name, but he had Lamar fourth in MVP voting. I don't know who the guy is.
I can't remember it off the top of Miller. Yeah, something Miller.

Speaker 93 That's probably, I don't understand how that happens.

Speaker 7 Yeah, absolutely foolish.

Speaker 90 I mean, in the Hall of Fame, too. Let's not even get into that.
But, like, I think it's just a good sign how good ball is right now. Like, Jamar Chase, no one's talking about him.

Speaker 90 He had one of the best seasons ever for a wide receiver, and he won the Triple Crown. It's like some people just had better years, and I feel like it's great that we get a Lamar and a Josh in the same

Speaker 90 decade era of the NFL.

Speaker 27 Yeah,

Speaker 71 I thought Lamar was going to win it.

Speaker 106 I was watching the show live, very surprised.

Speaker 13 Now, a lot of things happened during that show.

Speaker 159 Sure.

Speaker 159 You bet.

Speaker 82 A lot of things happened in that show.

Speaker 67 Jelly Roll.

Speaker 172 Jellyroll and Snoop. Is he snow?

Speaker 160 Did he sign a new do you?

Speaker 67 Yeah.

Speaker 52 Three tech. I think they're going to get him.
Hey,

Speaker 176 Jelly Roll is losing weight.

Speaker 137 Oh, he is.

Speaker 39 Hey, Jelly, we're happy for you, man.

Speaker 43 And also, Jelly getting in.

Speaker 88 full uniform on stage. Sweet.
Unbeliever.

Speaker 13 He had to be laughing so hard at all of that.

Speaker 65 Walked out with the helmet on.

Speaker 47 Took that thing off clean, too.

Speaker 55 Yeah. Took that thing off clean.

Speaker 99 Jelly and Soup Snoop taking a show up.

Speaker 56 Just stating a fact, I think,

Speaker 162 about Coach Belichick. So

Speaker 74 plus one.

Speaker 161 Sure.

Speaker 105 His lady friend.

Speaker 90 She had a Super Bowl ring on.

Speaker 171 He had a bunch, too. Yes, he did.

Speaker 101 He had a lot of Super Bowl.

Speaker 90 Shrimined people.

Speaker 41 How about him going out there and just doing his thing?

Speaker 112 How about Kevin O'Connell winning Coach of the Year?

Speaker 138 Yeah, hell yeah.

Speaker 90 Oh, G.

Speaker 151 He said, it's pretty crazy to get this, receive this award from

Speaker 108 the guy who drafted me.

Speaker 158 And then I'll say the greatest of all times, Kevin O'Connell.

Speaker 22 Give a shout out to Bill Belichick, who was up there. So congrats to KOC.

Speaker 25 Great jawline.

Speaker 39 Great work as a coach.

Speaker 13 We saw that video of him chewing out his team.

Speaker 137 Or heard that video of him chewing out his team.

Speaker 52 I like that.

Speaker 73 I like the way Justin Jefferson is able to work his ass off for whoever.

Speaker 15 He's their superstar wide receiver.

Speaker 82 He'll block. He'll get after it.

Speaker 25 He'll have 180 yards.

Speaker 99 Who's the quarterback going to be? Does it matter?

Speaker 134 I don't think so.

Speaker 172 I mean,

Speaker 120 that's the real question at this point. Isn't that crazy?

Speaker 32 That's probably why he won Coach of the Year.

Speaker 154 Great coaching.

Speaker 130 That legitimately why he's probably Coach of the Year.

Speaker 99 That was probably the thing whenever the hump, whenever they're talking about it, they're going, so anybody can be this guy's quarterback? Is that how this works?

Speaker 188 And it's like, yeah, I think so.

Speaker 21 That's got to be the guy.

Speaker 160 That was another category. I remember your watch list had, what, like, eight, nine guys?

Speaker 93 It started with 32. It started with 32.

Speaker 160 And then got down to one.

Speaker 160 So, yeah, he definitely earned it with the resurgence that Sam Darnell had, the year that they had, you know, 14 wins. And then going into, I think, first team been a wild card team with 14 wins.

Speaker 160 But yeah, Kevin O'Connell was definitely much, much deserved.

Speaker 39 Okay, we'll continue the awards conversation in a matter of moments.

Speaker 7 Ladies and gentlemen, there is a governor

Speaker 52 stand outside.

Speaker 21 Governor of this here state of Louisiana, ladies and gentlemen, Jeff Landry here.

Speaker 2 Jeff Landry.

Speaker 52 Jeff Langer.

Speaker 191 Thank you, Pat.

Speaker 198 I want to come here.

Speaker 178 I think you should set your headquarters like right here.

Speaker 52 Right here.

Speaker 122 Check out the time.

Speaker 178 Oh, they would love you. I'm telling you, this city is like built for you.

Speaker 111 Hey, Governor, I'll tell you what, we've been feeling that way.

Speaker 39 We walked through the French quarter last night.

Speaker 56 We had dinner at Doris Metropolitan,

Speaker 76 and then we walked back, and the casino has been beating us, Governor.

Speaker 70 I will say the sport of the...

Speaker 178 We got to get our revenue.

Speaker 58 We got to get our revenue. We got to get some revenue.

Speaker 179 Okay,

Speaker 39 tell me about the state and why it's such a good hosting place.

Speaker 57 And what is New Orleans going to show the world here this weekend?

Speaker 178 Well, look, first of all, I want to thank y'all for giving me just a little time to have some entertainment. I don't get to just listen.
I just enjoyed it.

Speaker 178 I did not get to do what many fans get to do and just sit here and watch a show like I would love to

Speaker 178 because we got so many things. So thank y'all for entertaining me for a little while.
My wife will absolutely love that.

Speaker 178 Look, I can tell you what we have worked on was to make sure that the city was ready to welcome the world because quite frankly, when you have a Super Bowl, you welcome the world.

Speaker 178 It is the greatest show on earth. It is the most watched show.
It is where everybody comes to be entertained. And this is the greatest city to be able to do that.
And of course, we started last year.

Speaker 178 I mean, you got to think about it. We started working towards making sure that we were going to put on an unbelievable event, and then we had the tragedy, right, that happened on New Year's morning.

Speaker 178 I mean, it was unbelievable. It just shook the city.
But I think that, I don't think that there is a city, Pat. I'll tell you this.

Speaker 178 I don't think that there is a city that's capable of being able to lift those up, lift the victims and their families and those that were injured.

Speaker 178 And then at the same time, send a message that, guess what? This is a city of entertainment, and this is what America is about. And that's what we said we were going to do, and that's what we do it.

Speaker 19 Yeah, you take a swing, but we're going to fight back.

Speaker 83 That's right.

Speaker 52 Oh, yeah.

Speaker 178 You knock us down, but we're coming right back up.

Speaker 67 Yes.

Speaker 37 That's the story in New Orleans, I think we've been hearing from a lot of people.

Speaker 81 And that's the feeling we had.

Speaker 4 Drew Brees talked to us yesterday about how, because of everything that happens here, there's like a real gratitude of life.

Speaker 39 There's like a real appreciation of life.

Speaker 77 And you can feel that from the people.

Speaker 16 I agree.

Speaker 17 Security included.

Speaker 39 I mean, we've got a chance to meet a lot of your state troopers, and they they look really cool.

Speaker 83 They look really cool.

Speaker 62 I don't know if they're on camera.

Speaker 67 They're not uniform.

Speaker 31 The blues are a great group.

Speaker 41 But even walking through the city, the people working at the restaurants, it's like there's just a vibe amongst the people here.

Speaker 19 And I got to experience it at the LSU.

Speaker 31 Yes.

Speaker 26 When we came down for college game day.

Speaker 103 Oh, we love that.

Speaker 19 The vibe was insane.

Speaker 39 It's just like a Louisiana feel.

Speaker 75 And we love people.

Speaker 88 We love people.

Speaker 178 Look, hospitality may have been invented in the South, but I say it was perfected in Louisiana. Like, we love y'all.
We really do. We just love people.
We love to watch people have a good time.

Speaker 178 We like you to leave the restaurants where you're feeling sore.

Speaker 52 Oh, yeah, we got to go.

Speaker 199 You got to walk three or four more blocks.

Speaker 178 If you leave and your pants still fit, you know, the waist,

Speaker 178 that means we did a bad job.

Speaker 145 I felt like that last night.

Speaker 155 Felt like that last night.

Speaker 145 AJ has a question for you, Governor.

Speaker 162 Governor,

Speaker 121 when you talk to other governors, you ever ask them, hey, when you guys get in office, why do you turn into robots that are not relatable? You're like such a relatable,

Speaker 121 good human, which it's got to be very difficult in your position, but why is it where some people get in that spot and it's almost like, hey, I don't understand who this is anymore?

Speaker 178 I don't know.

Speaker 178 I just think for a long time, people just, you know, you get into the office and you let the office become you and you forget that you got into the office because there are people out there that put you in that office.

Speaker 178 And if you stay with the people who put you in the office and you just be a regular, be who you are, right?

Speaker 178 If you're good enough to be able to get 51% of the people to be able to vote for you, then you should stay that way. And that's how I am.
You know, I just...

Speaker 178 grew up just a little country boy in a great state that really has great things to offer.

Speaker 39 And so,

Speaker 178 again, I don't know. I just

Speaker 3 the way we learned of you

Speaker 75 because you wanted that tiger on the sideline.

Speaker 146 Yeah, you wanted that tiger on the sideline.

Speaker 199 It's beyond believable.

Speaker 124 Can we talk about that tiger, though?

Speaker 39 Can we talk about that tiger?

Speaker 189 Sure, sure. Because

Speaker 39 there was a full conversation that was happening about, like,

Speaker 15 should we talk about it? Because there's people that aren't happy about it.

Speaker 22 But then there were people that were very pumped about it.

Speaker 39 And then obviously, all roads were leading back to you.

Speaker 32 They were like, Governor Jeff Lander's is going to have a tiger on that sideline.

Speaker 80 That's how this is going to go.

Speaker 76 Why was that so important to you?

Speaker 55 And what do you think kind of about how it all went down?

Speaker 178 Well, look, I'll tell you this. You know, you talk about governors.
There's a great governor, great governor, Jim Pillum

Speaker 178 from Nebraska.

Speaker 101 Sure.

Speaker 178 He played football for Nebraska. He was a defensive back in the late 70s, early 80s.
And about... Four months before, five months before we were talking about putting the tiger on, I ran into Jim.

Speaker 178 And he's telling me, he says, you know, all the years I played in Nebraska, he said, my most memorable game was as a freshman going down to Tiger Stadium.

Speaker 178 He said they would park the cat outside of the visitor's locker room. He said, I know they'd poke that animal.
He'd be growling.

Speaker 58 He says, the most intimidating thing.

Speaker 178 He's telling us,

Speaker 62 I mean, this went on.

Speaker 200 You know, like, I was a child back then, right?

Speaker 178 I mean, Nebraska.

Speaker 31 Remember Nebraska?

Speaker 178 I mean, maybe not you.

Speaker 52 I'm black shirts.

Speaker 58 I'm black shirts.

Speaker 178 But so Jim's telling me this, and he's like, it's the most unbelievable thing. He said, and as a child, I remember, you put the cheerleaders

Speaker 178 on top of the cage, and they'd roll the tiger around the stadium. Everybody would go wonderful.

Speaker 178 I mean, it became like his family event, and in some kind of way, we felt like we couldn't do that anymore.

Speaker 197 And I mean, it's just ridiculous.

Speaker 178 And so I said, you know what, we're going to bring that back. And so, you know, Alabama has got

Speaker 178 just a terrorist, you know,

Speaker 178 we don't have a good record against Alabama in Tiger Stadium. I think they're like 22-4 against LSU and Death Valley.
But I'm 1-0 against PETA, and so I'll take that.

Speaker 52 Yes,

Speaker 146 and

Speaker 41 they were coming after you.

Speaker 39 And there's zoos that have tigers, and I see the...

Speaker 70 What would that be called?

Speaker 36 Sanctuary.

Speaker 26 The sanctuary that's down there for the Tiger.

Speaker 200 $5 million, is me for that.

Speaker 28 $5 million. Yeah, that's what he's saying.
Yeah, we're taking care of this tiger.

Speaker 125 We are.

Speaker 11 Look, I say this.

Speaker 178 When we brought this tiger in, this lady, the sadie, we got this tiger in.

Speaker 178 She would get in the cage.

Speaker 178 This cat was like, it was like a big house cat to her. And then, you know, I'm all nervous.
We got, I mean, all the pressure y'all put on me. We get to think.

Speaker 45 We don't have to.

Speaker 146 I was doing journalism.

Speaker 178 And he's just laying there. And I said, they're going to think I drugged that cat, which is completely against the law.
We never do.

Speaker 136 Of course, of course.

Speaker 178 He loved being there. You know what the problem was?

Speaker 31 They didn't leave him there long enough.

Speaker 48 That was my point. I agree.

Speaker 175 I don't think you should have left him there long.

Speaker 178 He was having such a great time. We almost had to beg him to get up, you know?

Speaker 77 Okay, so we're saying what it sounds like is that tiger's probably coming back to the sideline.

Speaker 178 I'm just saying, I think there are a lot of people out there that realize that it's really not a big thing and that everybody likes to get.

Speaker 178 I mean, how would you like me to just keep you in your house and never let you out?

Speaker 191 I wouldn't like that. Me neither.

Speaker 199 I'm just not built for that, you know?

Speaker 111 Me neither. So, yeah, look, and you know, Colorado has a buffalo,

Speaker 52 longhorns. I mean, yeah, we just built the tigers.

Speaker 144 You're taking care of the tiger, too.

Speaker 15 That sanctuary that you guys have for that tiger down there is beautiful.

Speaker 154 So nice.

Speaker 19 Air conditioning had a little snow this year.

Speaker 144 Hey, what's up?

Speaker 178 Snow. Oh, the tiger had such a great time.
Mike had a great time in the snow.

Speaker 52 Mike. Mike did.

Speaker 65 Mike did have a great time.

Speaker 11 It snowed.

Speaker 178 He was back out. He was like, great.
I don't know.

Speaker 63 Yeah.

Speaker 44 Tone has a question for you, guys.

Speaker 54 Yeah, Governor, we've been searching all week.

Speaker 91 Where's the best place to get some Gator?

Speaker 3 Yeah, we like Gator.

Speaker 11 We'll get Gator.

Speaker 152 Yeah, we need some Gator.

Speaker 178 Be be honest with you. I'm going to get myself an old guy.
I'm the best place to get gator.

Speaker 58 Okay.

Speaker 88 Of course.

Speaker 1 You should have brought a gator.

Speaker 136 We're talking about just landing gator.

Speaker 178 You just send me. I'm going to take care of you.

Speaker 172 I'm going to show you.

Speaker 62 Okay, so hold on.

Speaker 64 How do we eat gator if we were to eat gator?

Speaker 78 Is it like a po-board gator porch?

Speaker 178 One bite at a time. Okay.

Speaker 58 Is it like a steak?

Speaker 178 You can have it any kind of way, fried, grilled.

Speaker 101 Fried, grilled, yeah. Great.
Grilled gator.

Speaker 73 We had octopus yesterday.

Speaker 178 Gator hunting with me.

Speaker 7 That's what y'all need to know.

Speaker 52 We heard about it yesterday.

Speaker 39 We heard about it yesterday.

Speaker 172 Y'all would love it.

Speaker 178 Yeah, but Gator is great. We'll get y'all some.

Speaker 28 Yeah. Darius has a question for you.

Speaker 160 Which way are you leaning in this game right now? I know your Saints aren't in it, but which way are you leaning right now? Chiefs, Eagles, all of us kind of been going back and forth.

Speaker 160 They look like they kind of picked the side already, but which way are you leaning right now?

Speaker 178 I'm actually watching y'all. You know, there's three of y'all right here.
When we get to critical mass, I don't know. You know, it's real interesting.
You know, that's part of me that's like,

Speaker 178 you'd love to see somebody be able to do it three times in a row, right? You know, I think we're, because that's what records are meant to,

Speaker 178 you hold a record and you want somebody to break it. And of course, you know, you got the Philly story.

Speaker 103 So I don't know.

Speaker 178 I'm not there yet. I tell you, you check back with me Sunday morning.

Speaker 65 Sunday morning.

Speaker 3 Sunday morning.

Speaker 41 Where will you be watching the game from?

Speaker 193 From the box.

Speaker 178 I got a ticket.

Speaker 50 Oh, my wife.

Speaker 52 Governor of the state.

Speaker 49 Oh, yeah.

Speaker 178 You meet my wife, too, and she was kind enough to want to take me.

Speaker 52 Okay, I like that.

Speaker 7 I for sure.

Speaker 178 We're going to be there with, you know, the big guys coming.

Speaker 3 Yeah.

Speaker 199 Oh, yeah,

Speaker 52 the president's coming.

Speaker 178 You know what's crazy?

Speaker 197 It's the first time.

Speaker 178 It's the first time that a sitting president has been to a Super Bowl.

Speaker 119 And I was like, there's no way.

Speaker 89 That was shocking.

Speaker 178 Super Bowls, and I know I've seen presidents flip the coin or something. I guess it's when they leave.
First time. First time.

Speaker 15 Yeah, I didn't expect to read that either.

Speaker 39 That changes security plans, right?

Speaker 178 We're already safe. We're good.
We just put him right in.

Speaker 52 Yeah, that's not a problem.

Speaker 15 That Alabama, when he went to that Alabama game, I got a chance to kind of hear about the setup.

Speaker 52 It's like, because of what happened in Butler, Pennsylvania, there's like even, it's a.

Speaker 62 Oh, yeah, no, no, no.

Speaker 126 And once again, New Orleans is the right place to be.

Speaker 68 We here.

Speaker 178 Thank y'all so much. Really do, Pat.
Thank y'all for being here. Thank y'all for loving the city.
And can't wait for a great game.

Speaker 20 Can we loosen it up a little bit at the casino?

Speaker 83 Please. And give them a clock.
I'm going to call the boys.

Speaker 44 We appreciate you.

Speaker 131 Ladies and gentlemen, the governor of Louisiana, Jeff Landry.

Speaker 136 Yeah, governor, governor.

Speaker 165 Last governor of Louisiana.

Speaker 134 What a rocket ship.

Speaker 7 Gator.

Speaker 90 You know, the best place to get Gator now.

Speaker 31 Jeff Landry.

Speaker 31 Boom.

Speaker 32 I got to get you going Gator hunting.

Speaker 43 Listen, a lot of people knew it wasn't that bad for the time.

Speaker 185 Mike loved it.

Speaker 67 He loved the snow. My bike loves the snow.
Mike loves the snow.

Speaker 6 Told this story.

Speaker 22 Nebraska guy told him that they definitely were prodding that.

Speaker 170 Yeah, they prodding him. You'll piss him off, making him cry.

Speaker 52 AJ,

Speaker 88 I look like the youngest guy.

Speaker 160 Why don't you think I remember Nebraska?

Speaker 52 I don't know. I remember

Speaker 48 what's going on there.

Speaker 201 I sure did.

Speaker 62 I don't know. Debut.

Speaker 126 That's a good question.

Speaker 66 You obviously didn't watch.

Speaker 136 Well, then what about you three? What about you three?

Speaker 88 I don't know what that was.

Speaker 52 Because the critical mask? Was that compressed? I don't know.

Speaker 7 That's awesome. Whatever's going on.

Speaker 88 Can't wait to get some data.

Speaker 111 I had no idea what that was going to be.

Speaker 37 I had no clue.

Speaker 52 We should have had dinner with Governor Jeff Landry.

Speaker 51 Need a weekly spot.

Speaker 118 Tony Jeff Land.

Speaker 47 Governor Jeff Landry.

Speaker 151 His name was just being echoed everywhere.

Speaker 103 I was walking down there.

Speaker 70 At dinner, Governor Jeff Leandry wants that tiger.

Speaker 51 Talked Talked about him for an hour.

Speaker 76 He was not there.

Speaker 108 Then we go to like where the production room is in a building and there's people like Governor Jeff Lange better not put that tiger.

Speaker 12 Like there's there's people that were very counter this entire thing because they thought it was going to blow up.

Speaker 80 So literally my entire stay at LSU was people talking about Governor Jeff Landry.

Speaker 155 I see why.

Speaker 16 Telling stories about whenever they met him whenever he was a kid and where he's from and how he does this and how he's been in the office a few times.

Speaker 137 It's like, this guy, he's got the world talking right now.

Speaker 31 Yes, recognition.

Speaker 71 And he shows up right here and just go undefeated, brother.

Speaker 52 1-0.

Speaker 47 Undefeated, brother.

Speaker 90 Bamon's got a good record at LSU, but I'm 1-0 against PETA.

Speaker 82 Yeah. Hey, that was another big time story.

Speaker 148 Because

Speaker 70 of how scary Death Valley is.

Speaker 76 Sure.

Speaker 105 Which, in theory, should be. Yeah.

Speaker 64 Like,

Speaker 170 his defense, too, is there's no offense for that.

Speaker 171 How would you like it if I locked you up all day in your house?

Speaker 20 Yeah, and I thought about my four cats immediately.

Speaker 191 I'm like,

Speaker 134 I'm kind of giving a life sentence

Speaker 3 to four felines in my house, buddy.

Speaker 19 But

Speaker 76 yeah, I guess he was going to get that tiger onto that sideline. He did.

Speaker 32 And it sounds like it's going to happen again.

Speaker 110 As it should.

Speaker 15 Governor Jeff Landry's just doing his thing. And you asked him a question: how does he not change it all?

Speaker 82 I don't know if he can.

Speaker 130 He can't. I mean, that's.

Speaker 106 I don't think Jeff Landry can.

Speaker 53 Okay.

Speaker 36 Allegedly, multiple Eagles players are battling a flu.

Speaker 93 You guys hearing this? Oh, yeah.

Speaker 32 Yeah, I saw that.

Speaker 57 A little bit of a sickness.

Speaker 15 Now, if it is the same flu that I saw my wife have right before I came down here to Super Bowl, buddy, this is a violent one.

Speaker 47 It is a,

Speaker 81 I think it's a pretty

Speaker 108 quick, I think it is a wave, but I think it is a very serious, a lot of puking.

Speaker 64 Sure.

Speaker 48 A lot.

Speaker 93 You're saying this is a little work of voodoo.

Speaker 35 So I was asked about that last night on the street.

Speaker 7 We were walking through the street.

Speaker 137 You remember that?

Speaker 52 It was, yeah. Different kind of popped out of nowhere.

Speaker 149 I was just stopped.

Speaker 99 I think it was Outkick. It was.

Speaker 71 I don't know who it was, but it was Outkick.

Speaker 119 It was a lady.

Speaker 106 And she asked me, do you have a second, like literally on the side of the street?

Speaker 13 So quick, boom, microphone.

Speaker 108 Just got out a great dinner. Great dinner.

Speaker 51 So good.

Speaker 79 It was a great dinner. It was from.
Top to bottom.

Speaker 137 It really was. Yeah.
Oh, yeah.

Speaker 177 Great, old-fashioned.

Speaker 20 Everything about it was great presentation, good food, good timing.

Speaker 52 Yeah. Steak was on fire.
How to get in?

Speaker 52 The steak. The steak was on fire.

Speaker 10 They had fire.

Speaker 76 They had fire on all the stakes, right in front of our faces.

Speaker 141 So coming out of a great dinner, boom.

Speaker 24 How you feeling?

Speaker 99 Can we ask you a question?

Speaker 148 Sure.

Speaker 44 I mean, you're recording right now, so.

Speaker 138 Two questions.

Speaker 154 We should definitely do that, yes.

Speaker 15 And then I was appreciative for the opportunity.

Speaker 108 She immediately brought up like voodoo happening.

Speaker 7 Witchcraft. Yeah,

Speaker 115 I mean, that's New Orleans.

Speaker 118 Tey voodoo.

Speaker 161 And that.

Speaker 59 I hadn't even thought of it.

Speaker 26 I hadn't even, I hadn't even thought of that.

Speaker 64 Maybe.

Speaker 109 Maybe. Chance.
Maybe.

Speaker 15 And then I heard Travis Kelsey the other day say that whenever Taylor did a show

Speaker 13 in Kansas City, she did some football throw in the middle of it, and then she counted the three.

Speaker 119 So it's like the Te Voodoo.

Speaker 52 Oh. Oh, is that part of it?

Speaker 119 Part of her three-peat as well.

Speaker 90 That would be kind of like the witch's coven.

Speaker 19 And then you listen to what the internet's saying about the voodoo that's already happening.

Speaker 137 Yeah.

Speaker 71 You'd have to wonder, are your Eagles' bets safe?

Speaker 168 There's something afoot.

Speaker 21 Yeah, is there something working?

Speaker 70 What if the Eagles win?

Speaker 141 Then people would say that the refs weren't on their side all game, all season?

Speaker 7 They'll say Coop hit him with kind of a curveball wizard's magic.

Speaker 52 Oh.

Speaker 137 To counter. To counter it, because he's so handsome.

Speaker 7 Exactly.

Speaker 14 Bradley Cooper's handsomeness, because he is a celebrity fan for the Philadelphia Eagles.

Speaker 90 Maybe sacrifices a Philly cheesesteak.

Speaker 88 Oh, there you go.

Speaker 52 From Daniel Coops.

Speaker 64 From Danielian Coops.

Speaker 36 All right, ladies and gentlemen, joining us.

Speaker 106 We thought we were going to get a chance to talk to him a little bit earlier, but obviously, he is the talk of any time that he is in because the way he talks, it lights up any time that he is in.

Speaker 12 Ladies and gentlemen, quarterback for the Bronze and the Saints and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Florida State.

Speaker 105 Ladies and gentlemen, James Swiss.

Speaker 133 Yay, James.

Speaker 51 Great boots. Great fit.

Speaker 52 Great fit. Great fit.

Speaker 17 New book goofing.

Speaker 39 You got some snake. Snake skin, baby.

Speaker 3 Yeah.

Speaker 70 This snake died in its sleep.

Speaker 52 Yep. Lived a long life.
Yep.

Speaker 69 Died in its sleep.

Speaker 86 These are not snake skin. These are archers.

Speaker 31 Ostrich.

Speaker 31 Oh, okay.

Speaker 86 The nice leather of their long necks.

Speaker 103 Sure.

Speaker 86 Yeah.

Speaker 37 I don't think so.

Speaker 128 It looks like a snake to me.

Speaker 62 I think these are ostrich.

Speaker 52 No,

Speaker 3 I think you think they are.

Speaker 181 Yeah, I can see the ostrich pattern.

Speaker 90 Kind of looks like a gator almost. Could be gator.

Speaker 86 Ostriches have different complexions, right?

Speaker 85 Yeah.

Speaker 58 Yeah. These are oxtrich.

Speaker 152 They're oxtrich coming.

Speaker 52 I agree. I agree.

Speaker 88 I agree.

Speaker 62 I think I marry the ostrich then, too.

Speaker 86 These are ostrich boots.

Speaker 67 Yes.

Speaker 118 Might be some Cayman Croc.

Speaker 138 Hey, listen.

Speaker 92 I am happy that I...

Speaker 81 We need to get a pair.

Speaker 52 Those are amazing.

Speaker 25 As do you. How are you doing, man? Let me let you know.

Speaker 98 From Media Night, through all of the content that you've been creating down here, absolutely crushing it.

Speaker 52 Thank you.

Speaker 83 You've enjoying the hell out of me?

Speaker 86 I enjoy the

Speaker 86 responses that I got from you. Like, because when I watch your show, I know that you're speaking real stuff, and I admire everybody that you bring with you.
And you told me one thing.

Speaker 86 You're like, get away from the fluff. Don't ask any of the questions that other people tell me to ask.

Speaker 31 Bango. You need to be who you are.

Speaker 88 Yes.

Speaker 86 And I took that same work to NFL honors.

Speaker 86 But trying to fit in this space, man, is very challenging because people keep saying, like, you're on the dark side, and I'm like, no, I'm not on the dark side.

Speaker 86 Like, I'm in a space where I want to be able to get a lot of money.

Speaker 137 Yeah, but your response to that dark side thing was,

Speaker 146 it went over his head, right?

Speaker 172 Yeah, but that's going to happen, Janice.

Speaker 45 That's why.

Speaker 62 Hey, that's going to happen.

Speaker 16 You need to just keep moving with that.

Speaker 52 For sure.

Speaker 52 Come on. You are a, hey, you are great and meant to be on a microphone.

Speaker 9 Oh, yeah.

Speaker 104 So don't listen to any of these people.

Speaker 86 No, thank you. But no one is on your level, Pat.
And I got to give you your flowers, man.

Speaker 86 When I saw you doing the When I saw y'all doing the national championship from the back of the end zone, like I have, I have trouble even watching the end zone view on film.

Speaker 86 And y'all are calling the game, man, and your energy, your enthusiasm.

Speaker 52 Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on.

Speaker 88 Because I'm believing.

Speaker 56 Enough about that.

Speaker 20 We are very lucky and thankful that you're going to get in the content world.

Speaker 83 Sports world is very lucky for that.

Speaker 188 Now, with that being said...

Speaker 139 You obviously know that you're near that at some point.

Speaker 44 Like, what are you, is this preparing for future while still...

Speaker 86 I don't have a contingency plan, brother. My focus is on being the best quarterback that I still can be.
That's what I'm still preparing for.

Speaker 86 I'm just allowing myself to venture off and accept other roles to learn and see

Speaker 94 what I like it.

Speaker 149 What you have to do.

Speaker 104 I think that's a very smart move.

Speaker 20 And also being fully focused on football, where is the mindset at right now?

Speaker 86 My mindset right now is on my preparation, on eliminating all negative plays and focusing on how can I play consistent winning football.

Speaker 73 So has God blessed you with throwing less pick sixes?

Speaker 52 So the Lord has definitely delivered me from pick sixes because I didn't throw any more pick sixes.

Speaker 189 I hope.

Speaker 86 Now I threw a few picks, but I should have been more specific in my prayer.

Speaker 52 Yeah. Back to the prayer.
Lock it in.

Speaker 7 Absolutely.

Speaker 144 Lock it in. Every prayer can get better.
You know what I mean?

Speaker 9 Every single one. AJ has a question for you.

Speaker 86 That's why you pray every day.

Speaker 52 Absolutely.

Speaker 147 Absolutely.

Speaker 121 James, first off. Let's pray right now, actually.

Speaker 103 James, can you hear your prayer for us?

Speaker 86 I can. Heavenly Father, we do not want to joke about you at all, Lord.
We are so honored and grateful that we are able to be among each other, Lord.

Speaker 86 You have given us this moment now, and this is all that we have, God.

Speaker 86 Help us, please, to advance your kingdom as we move forward Lord I just pray for Pat and his team Lord that they just continue to give people the word of true sports of experiences of a lifetime Lord but through that Lord they can find you in everything that they do Lord Bless us with a great voice Lord lead us to the promised land Lord in Jesus name I pray amen

Speaker 28 AJ has a question for you

Speaker 121 obviously I'm sure everybody's been asking about this game how if the Eagles win this game how do they win the game and what do you have you made predictions What's your thoughts?

Speaker 86 So, everyone asked me for a prediction, and I just say, like, it's about the trenches.

Speaker 86 And I'm in the best of both worlds because I love and respect both quarterbacks, but I know it's about what's going to happen on the inside.

Speaker 86 I know one matchup that everyone's going to be watching is Jalen Carler and

Speaker 86 Jalen Carter and Trey Smith, right? Because Jalen only plays to the right side. So he's going to have help from Creed.
Trey is going to have help from Creed, so they have to dominate this.

Speaker 86 But what the Eagles have to prepare for is the matchups that they're going to create.

Speaker 86 Wolf number 95, because Chris Jones plays all over the front line and I know Spags does an excellent job of stopping the run, but his main focus is stop Saquon and make Jalen Hurts carry the football.

Speaker 86 If Jalen Hurts has to have over 20 carries this game, I think Kansas City will pull off.

Speaker 86 If Jalen Hurts in their RPO game is able to suck Spagnolia's defense in but would force them to give and have different things off that so they can attack the perimeter because I think the Eagles have really worn on the perimeter opposed to just running straight up the middle.

Speaker 86 Even when you see Saquon's long run, he's making a cut and he's bouncing out to the outside and getting vertical after that. So, if the Eagles can win vertical, they'll win a game.

Speaker 86 If Kansas City can stop the Eagles from vertical,

Speaker 86 I'm not even going to go there, from vertically penetrating them in the running game,

Speaker 152 sucking out there vertically penetrating them.

Speaker 7 And penetrate.

Speaker 86 But it's the best of both words for me. I love both of these quarterbacks.
I love both of these head coaches. I love both of these teams.
I think Big Vangelo's defense is very simple.

Speaker 86 They're going to populate people around everybody because they play mass zone coverage. I think that's tough for Kelsey, who has an amazing ability to get open.

Speaker 86 But one thing about his defense, bunches and stacks expose them because they make a sky call what defenders are just going to zone spacing, and that allows Travis Kelsey just to get open.

Speaker 52 To work underneath. Yes.

Speaker 15 Okay, so whenever they talk about spags, they say he brings it a lot.

Speaker 14 He does.

Speaker 20 Is there blitzes now?

Speaker 21 How many years have you been in the league?

Speaker 86 I've been in the league 10 years.

Speaker 149 Okay, that's a long ass time.

Speaker 109 Congratulations.

Speaker 43 Not easy at all.

Speaker 36 Okay, the amount of blitzes, what is the hardest thing to, is it the disguises?

Speaker 4 Is it picking, guessing?

Speaker 26 Can you normally figure out a blitz?

Speaker 36 What is the thought of a quarterback whenever a blitz is?

Speaker 86 Well, one of the top things in the cornerback is like, what is my protection area that is like at stake?

Speaker 86 And when you have a protection problem, you have to start with who is their most dominant defensive lineman.

Speaker 86 And for Kansas City, it's Chris Jones, but you can't base your protection just on him because he moves all over the field. And we had a study with the Cleveland Browns.

Speaker 86 Like, typically, Kansas City is bringing 90% of their pressures away from Chris Jones because they want to show you Chris Jones being on this side. They want to bring the pressure opposite.

Speaker 86 Once we played them, obviously defensive, they do self-scout as well.

Speaker 199 They brought all their pressures to Chris Jones on that side.

Speaker 86 So yes, it is deceptiveness. It is the disguise, but it's the way that his safeties work.
Josh Cook and is it not Eric Reed, Justin Reed, they work so well together.

Speaker 86 They're not as great as ball hawking safeties, but they do a good job of getting their depth. and playing downhill to help their corners out.
And they got one corner that's a solid corner.

Speaker 86 It's one of the top corners is Lee and Trink McDuffie so their zone pressures when they are in man he typically locks somebody up so I'm gonna be curious to see the one-on-one matchup between him and AJ Brown and Devonta Smith Debunch has

Speaker 160 outstanding phenomenal answers yes

Speaker 160 that's a prayer's answer right there wouldn't express anything less but you talked about you know been in the league 10 years and you also said earlier in the conversation about accepted different roles you've been in so many different positions being a number one pick you know having the keys handed to you for the being the face of the franchise and then at some point in your career being backup quarterbacks how has that uh mindset changed for you not only on the field but as the as the player in the locker room because you start still are a huge personality that people I feel like look up to in a leadership role well I've always focused on the servant leadership part of the quarterback position and leadership in general because people can get led in different ways.

Speaker 86 Some people you can really hold them accountable, be firm with them. Some people you gotta baby them, you know, for the most part.
So I always just focused on that aspect.

Speaker 86 But when I was a starter, a firm starter, when I was young,

Speaker 86 the face of the franchise of the Buccaneers,

Speaker 86 my sole purpose was to get people to like me. You know what I'm saying? I wanted to be a people pleaser.
You know, I want to make everybody, I want to make everybody happy.

Speaker 86 But when I got to New Orleans Saints after Tom Brady led the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, the same team that I was on to the Super Bowl, I had to understand, like, man,

Speaker 31 everybody don't got to like you.

Speaker 86 You just got to win games. And that's one thing that Sean Payne taught me

Speaker 86 in New Orleans.

Speaker 86 But seeing Drew Brees and Sean Payton have the continuity to really put a plan together, to argue about certain things, but at the end of the day, come up with something like, how can we best win this game?

Speaker 86 Not, Jameis, are you going to throw for 400 yards and five touchdowns to win the game for us? But is the special teams going to win this game for us?

Speaker 86 Is the defense going to have to get a big turnover for us? Like,

Speaker 86 what is required for us to win every game individually? And I think that's how I grew in terms of knowing the quarterback position.

Speaker 86 But in terms of service, I've always wanted to serve my players to the best of my abilities.

Speaker 86 So I when I became that backup quarterback per se because that was my role I wanted to ensure like just like specialists like specialists and quarterbacks are on the same team because only one of us out there

Speaker 86 it's only one of us out there so we have to exert all of our energy to helping that one person uh be his best and that's why honestly cleveland browns was so um so peaceful for me because this was the first time that i was able to be the veteran in a room like even when i had to back up derek cart but derrick still was the the veteran like you know he had he had one year over me, but I was, it was nothing I could really can teach him.

Speaker 86 I just was there to serve him. But to shun DTR, Bailey Zapp late in the year, Tyler Huntley with his resurgence with Miami.

Speaker 86 I was able to actually speak into their lives and give them little tools in the game. You know how it is.

Speaker 111 So you enjoyed it.

Speaker 15 You enjoyed the transition because whenever we were with Andrew Luck, Matt Hasselbeck was the backup that got brought in.

Speaker 20 And he said he had to have a conversation with himself like, hey, all right, my time's up.

Speaker 20 I can give back here with this guy, or I can be a guy who still tries to get a starting role somewhere, starting quarterback somewhere.

Speaker 110 And he said

Speaker 36 he came at peace or whatever with being Andrew Luck's backup and everything like that.

Speaker 70 Have you had to have that conversation?

Speaker 73 Because you said backup role was there.

Speaker 36 Or do you think you still have starting football?

Speaker 48 I know I'm one of the football football football.

Speaker 37 Because I think you played.

Speaker 28 I think you played starting football.

Speaker 86 I know I'm one of the best 32 quarterbacks in this world. Okay.
And no one can take that away from me.

Speaker 7 But I do whatever's required, right?

Speaker 86 And what I want for myself, I want for everyone. So when someone else is in that role, like late in the season, when Kevin Stefanski turned it over to Dorian

Speaker 86 Thompson Robinson, man, I'm his biggest fan because I know the importance of week to week. I just want to win.

Speaker 7 That's all I want.

Speaker 86 It's not the stardom, it's not the fame. Obviously, I want to be the team's quarterback, like because that's what I think it's required for me because I want to feel that.
You know what I'm saying?

Speaker 86 But I just want to win. So, anyway, I can help, anyway, I can serve, anything I could do to play more consistently to win, I'm gonna do that.

Speaker 88 Yeah,

Speaker 31 Hell yeah, James.

Speaker 88 Let's go, James. Love it.

Speaker 74 Hell yeah, James.

Speaker 112 Connor has a question for you.

Speaker 90 Yeah, Jameis, so you kind of let us in prayer there, and you talked about the game on the field, but what do you think the pregame speeches from these coaches is going to be?

Speaker 90 What do you think the message is to their teams?

Speaker 90 Because obviously the Chiefs are talking about with the refs and everything, and then the Eagles have, you know, they're kind of playing spoiler and all the pressure's on them.

Speaker 90 What do you think the coaches are going to be saying to their team?

Speaker 86 Well, I think anytime you have the biggest event of it all, you want to silence the noise and focus on playing your best game.

Speaker 86 Like, so the coaches are telling them, like, hey, guys, like, let's focus on being our very best for this last game.

Speaker 119 Like, we don't have enough game this year.

Speaker 86 So, why not show up right here, right now, in the biggest moment of them all with everybody watching you and play the best version of yourself today?

Speaker 31 Hell yeah, I like that.

Speaker 15 Hey, those moments that they started catching with you when you were running this year, it's not about the lights.

Speaker 149 It's not about the cameras.

Speaker 86 Not about the action.

Speaker 52 Actually, it is.

Speaker 58 Hold on.

Speaker 31 It was awesome. It was great.

Speaker 159 It was such a moment.

Speaker 26 Every week we were looking forward to hearing you.

Speaker 36 And now, you know, with this week of work that you've done here at the Super Bowl and everything you've ever done on any podcast or show, you have a very

Speaker 22 lucrative career waiting for you whenever it's all said and done.

Speaker 15 So enjoy the hell out of your time spinning the rock, brother.

Speaker 194 We can't thank you enough. Thank you.
Thank you.

Speaker 86 But it's about the impact, and that's what you guys are doing. You guys are impacting the sports face in a whole nother.

Speaker 86 Ram, especially with your work ethic and you allowing and trusting the guys that you have with you to do their best job.

Speaker 110 We got a good team, James.

Speaker 56 You know, and I think you're a leader of

Speaker 52 great man. I mean, leader of men.

Speaker 149 Yeah, leader of men. Truly.
I believe that.

Speaker 2 Thank you.

Speaker 73 This

Speaker 161 cardigan. Cardigan, yes.
It's cardigan.

Speaker 80 Ostrich, too. Yeah, that looks awesome.

Speaker 86 I'm going to have to check my salads on it because if these are not ostrichers, I'm deeper than mad.

Speaker 11 Now, so what's going on?

Speaker 86 I ain't going to say they're snake. I'm going to say they're Gator.

Speaker 3 You know,

Speaker 34 hey, so Zito just told me that you have a tea.

Speaker 86 You're doing. Yes, real tea.
Real Real tea, the best tea, the realest tea of them all has high in antioxidants. And I'm just an advocate for promoting things that

Speaker 86 I can actually drink after workout.

Speaker 86 So this tea is a tea that has essential vitamins in there, antioxidants. It makes you younger.
It makes you healthier. It's very hydrating, yes.

Speaker 103 It's called Real Tea?

Speaker 114 It's called R-Y-L-T.

Speaker 86 Real tea.

Speaker 128 Real. Realest tea you'll ever have.

Speaker 48 Okay.

Speaker 52 I've seen your case.

Speaker 86 It's everywhere. It's in Walmart, it's in Target, it's in Publix.
Like, it's out.

Speaker 186 Is this?

Speaker 157 Are you a part of this?

Speaker 92 I'm a part of it.

Speaker 86 I'm an ambassador of real tea.

Speaker 52 Okay, let's go, Jameis.

Speaker 75 Good for you, man.

Speaker 42 Keep killing it. We can't thank you enough.

Speaker 17 Ladies and gentlemen, maybe the quarterback of the future.

Speaker 161 Yeah.

Speaker 41 10-year vet, ladies and gentlemen, Jameis Woodson.

Speaker 52 Yeah, James.

Speaker 11 Jameis Woods.

Speaker 11 You're a business. You

Speaker 134 Thank you, Javis.

Speaker 65 Yeah, it's good job.

Speaker 52 Cleaned that up.

Speaker 92 Thank you, Jack. Good cardigan.

Speaker 136 Good cardigan.

Speaker 88 Thank you. You look great.

Speaker 131 Great cardigan.

Speaker 88 Appreciate you.

Speaker 7 It's ostrich. You're right.

Speaker 121 It's ostrich.

Speaker 145 Hey, you look awesome.

Speaker 161 Ostrich.

Speaker 127 Ostrich. Yeah, it is.

Speaker 101 It is. You're good.

Speaker 86 It's not.

Speaker 137 That's next again, I think.

Speaker 52 Yeah, it's got to be a lizard.

Speaker 93 Pat and I own a lot of boots. The ostrich is the ones that have like the little bumps on them.

Speaker 48 Duh.

Speaker 59 Welcome back, A.Q. Shook.
Hey, AQ.

Speaker 109 She's trying to make him feel comfortable.

Speaker 148 I'm 100% sure there's a snake.

Speaker 68 I think for everything that I've learned,

Speaker 52 you know,

Speaker 19 I was giving him an excuse about the

Speaker 15 snake died in his sleep, right?

Speaker 37 Remember, live a long life.

Speaker 20 You didn't kill that snake for those boots.

Speaker 82 That thing had a great life.

Speaker 90 He's an ostrich.

Speaker 92 All right.

Speaker 3 What a leader.

Speaker 45 Uh-uh.

Speaker 113 It's all about the trenches.

Speaker 31 Yeah.

Speaker 52 Yeah, but you don't believe that. He got a thumb up, though.
You don't believe that. Well, when we get to the picks,

Speaker 88 we'll see. All right, so Avi's got a lot of stuff.

Speaker 146 You're back on the wagon.

Speaker 103 We will see what we believe.

Speaker 12 You're back on the wagon.

Speaker 188 Good for you.

Speaker 98 A.Q., what have you taken away from today's program thus far?

Speaker 14 Anything important?

Speaker 113 The governor's awesome. Jameis was awesome.

Speaker 157 I forgot about the governor.

Speaker 52 I completely forgot about the governor.

Speaker 75 He was the best. He was right over here.

Speaker 129 How about the

Speaker 169 two stadies? Ari.

Speaker 167 Ari Emmanuel was stadium.

Speaker 7 Yeah, pretty cool. His pants were perfect.

Speaker 84 Yeah, and then you see,

Speaker 41 I mean, that guy every single day, same life.

Speaker 187 Same.

Speaker 119 It doesn't doesn't matter where he is.

Speaker 74 We're rolling.

Speaker 191 We're in a cold dub. We're in a hot dub.
We're in an infrared sauna.

Speaker 109 Oh, he's rolling?

Speaker 12 Dude, yeah, he's rolling on a ball.

Speaker 83 That ball.

Speaker 93 Oh, I thought you meant like rolling like jiu-jitsu.

Speaker 52 Oh, maybe. He might be.

Speaker 146 I mean, probably.

Speaker 137 I mean, that would make a lot of sense, though.

Speaker 119 It has been a big day.

Speaker 115 Dan Marino. Oh,

Speaker 115 Miami needs to get more pits per guys.

Speaker 52 That's what I gather.

Speaker 130 Tougher.

Speaker 70 And with that being said, ladies and gentlemen,

Speaker 73 final guest of this particular hour.

Speaker 73 A man who has a sphere show coming to Las Vegas.

Speaker 14 A man who has hosted so many summer parties.

Speaker 57 His name is synonymous with the season.

Speaker 46 Ladies and gentlemen, Kenny Chesney.

Speaker 136 Holy hell. Holy hell.

Speaker 45 Wow.

Speaker 88 Holy shit.

Speaker 163 Good as days, too.

Speaker 7 Kenny Chesney.

Speaker 11 What's up, Tenny?

Speaker 66 How are you?

Speaker 50 Holy hell.

Speaker 50 Man,

Speaker 50 thank you for coming. Are you going to Hey, crazy, good to see you.

Speaker 41 You're the city guy. Kenny Chesney's here.

Speaker 118 The goat.

Speaker 3 The goat.

Speaker 149 Here you go, Kenny.

Speaker 15 Holy hell, Kenny Chesney's here.

Speaker 22 Look how jacked you are.

Speaker 87 It's that time of year.

Speaker 59 Hey, good to see you, Kenny.

Speaker 88 Good to see you. Good to see you, Kenny.

Speaker 15 Okay, Kenny, the sphere announcement is gigantic.

Speaker 158 We obviously have all gone to Kenny Chesney concerts across

Speaker 15 cities across America every single summer.

Speaker 20 Your name, I've told you this numerous times, being synonymous with summer is just like such a cool thing.

Speaker 54 Jimmy Buffett had it for a a very long time.

Speaker 20 Feels like you are the one that's bringing the summer festival from town to town.

Speaker 13 Now you're doing the sphere here.

Speaker 145 And how excited are you for that and what's that going to look like?

Speaker 87 Well I'm very excited just because

Speaker 87 it's new.

Speaker 87 You know, we've been out there a while and for the people that have come to our shows over the years and lived with this music for a while, they're going to get to experience it in a completely different state of consciousness.

Speaker 87 I mean it's it's crazy.

Speaker 87 And we're looking forward to it. We're in rehearsals right now.

Speaker 87 We are creating content as we speak.

Speaker 199 And

Speaker 87 it's not going to be long until we start two-a-day practices, if you know what I mean.

Speaker 52 We're close.

Speaker 31 Oh, the boys will fall.

Speaker 67 Yeah, we're close.

Speaker 172 The boys will fall.

Speaker 59 AJ has a question for you, Kelly.

Speaker 120 Kenny,

Speaker 121 I watch these artists run on treadmills and sing. I assume you've done that at a time.

Speaker 106 Do you ever do that when you get ready for a tour?

Speaker 87 Yeah, but when it gets close. Really? You know, yeah, because I just get my lungs ready.

Speaker 87 You know, it's one thing, if I just stood still, look, my mom has video footage of me in my grandmother's kitchen as a child listening to music and I just move.

Speaker 7 Okay.

Speaker 87 So that's just the way it is. So when you got the band I got and you go up there on stage and you feel all that energy on stage, it's insane about how much it takes of me.

Speaker 87 lung capacity to do my shit.

Speaker 42 Yeah, but your actions are leading everybody else out there too, you know, because when you're sweating your ass off, everybody else.

Speaker 52 You move with the spear though?

Speaker 163 And to be able to move this

Speaker 121 stage feels, I guess we were up high, but like, can you move like you want to?

Speaker 87 It's a version of what we do. It's It's not the same thing as, you know, because when we're in a stadium, it goes a long way, and I'm going back and forth all night.
But in

Speaker 87 the middle of the suicides, whatever they call it.

Speaker 183 Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 87 But in sphere, it's going to be a smaller version of it. But yeah, I've got my space.

Speaker 87 And we'll see.

Speaker 87 We're in rehearsals, like I said now, but we won't really know. till we get in there.
Yeah. You know, so that's going to be sometime in May when we can start rehearsals.

Speaker 14 I can't wait for the experience.

Speaker 88 Yes. Yeah.

Speaker 107 You know, you said a different stream of consciousness.

Speaker 112 I've only been in the sphere in one particular consciousness.

Speaker 26 And I think for your concert, it's going to be the right one to be in.

Speaker 15 So I can't wait to experience it.

Speaker 128 We're looking forward to it.

Speaker 52 Debunters, when we were in there, we had an experience.

Speaker 160 We won't say what

Speaker 160 performer or performers it was, but some of the guys were disappointed with some of the songs that they played with the catalog you have of so many bangers.

Speaker 160 How do you pick what's going to be on the track list in what city or what performance?

Speaker 87 Well, I think that you can ask anybody in my road family. We're not a big big believer.

Speaker 87 Well, we will do some songs just because of the space that we don't normally do in a stadium environment, just because of the way it's built.

Speaker 87 And we can, it's more of an experience than it is an energy thing. But that being said, I've never been one to do a bunch of deep cuts.
Because when you start doing deep cuts, everybody starts

Speaker 183 checking their phones.

Speaker 128 They go.

Speaker 177 You got Bono's number?

Speaker 136 You should tell.

Speaker 88 It was you too.

Speaker 123 I'll let you know it was you too. I didn't say that.

Speaker 45 We are telling you.

Speaker 31 We are telling you.

Speaker 3 We are telling you.

Speaker 78 We assume it would have been a great show if they would have played all their hits.

Speaker 15 I think I, who's a, hey, I like YouTube's music, there's a couple songs I certainly love.

Speaker 149 Same way.

Speaker 36 Like, whenever I went there, it was just all, I think it was for like his, their people, like, super, their people.

Speaker 19 But it was Super Bowl week, so it was like a lot of people were in town.

Speaker 194 Right.

Speaker 15 Nonetheless, I didn't know any of the songs, but I thought the sphere was very...

Speaker 199 cool, if you will. Yeah.

Speaker 149 I'm excited to see how much you, and then there's like rattling and shit that's happening through it all.

Speaker 87 Yeah, there's a lot going on but still i mean people still when they come they come to your show i mean they want to hear the music they live with that's that for me when i go see somebody's show which has been a while but when i go see if let's say if i go see bruce bruce springstein i mean i want to really i want to hear born to run i want to hear have to so um

Speaker 87 i would be disappointed if i didn't well

Speaker 83 You know, when I go, I want to hear my tractor.

Speaker 52 She thinks tractor 6.

Speaker 124 Do you have to hear that one?

Speaker 136 We're talking about that again.

Speaker 52 Sorry we had to bring that back.

Speaker 40 Yeah, it's okay. Ton has a question for you, Kevin.

Speaker 93 Yeah, when we were in the sphere the first time, like it was, it's a lot. Have you, did you go and scout and see other people's shows in there to know its capabilities and stuff?

Speaker 87 I haven't seen a show there, but when we've been planning to do this since last April, even before we did last year's tour.

Speaker 87 But I went to see about 30 minutes of U2's set that they had it filmed, and it was as if they were really there.

Speaker 87 And I had my team with me, and I looked at them and I went, there's no way we're not not doing this.

Speaker 160 Yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean, because it was just so different for me.

Speaker 87 You know, and I've been doing it in a minute. And I wanted to take my audience and my friends and people that I know and love on a journey with me.

Speaker 87 And so, yeah, to answer your question or your question,

Speaker 87 we're going to play a long time.

Speaker 87 We've been blessed with a pretty big catalog. And we're going to play for a while.
We're going to do a lot of songs that people know.

Speaker 52 A few that they don't.

Speaker 87 We're going to do a few deep cuts, but not a lot.

Speaker 141 Yeah, but whenever you put out new albums, you create new bangers.

Speaker 104 Yep.

Speaker 108 I assume that list gets harder to put together every single time.

Speaker 56 Are you touring as well or just

Speaker 44 sphere?

Speaker 181 I'm doing just not just sphere, but you get it.

Speaker 87 Yeah, I'm doing that because all of our energy is going towards making that great. We're going to play a couple months, and then I'm actually going to take some time to

Speaker 2 live a little.

Speaker 87 And I'm going to, you know, I know, you know, with the next fall, I'm going to actually go to some football games.

Speaker 136 Hey, wow.

Speaker 62 Boom. Living.

Speaker 49 Patriots.

Speaker 88 Yeah. Same fast.
Braves.

Speaker 134 We got a rapes.

Speaker 45 All right.

Speaker 4 We are wrapping up here on ESPN.

Speaker 76 We'll continue on YouTube.

Speaker 4 ESPN Plus, Disney Plus, and TikTok Live.

Speaker 97 The Super Bowl is on Sunday.

Speaker 5 We'll overreact on Monday. Be a friend.

Speaker 20 Tell a friend something nice.

Speaker 4 It might change their life.

Speaker 103 Have a great weekend.

Speaker 202 Completely forgot it was Friday.

Speaker 74 Yeah. Yeah.
Easy to. Until I was talking there.
Crazy.

Speaker 13 Oh, we don't have another show until the Super Bowl and this entire thing.

Speaker 81 You're in town, obviously.

Speaker 186 We are thankful we get to chat with you every single Super Bowl week.

Speaker 50 I'm thankful.

Speaker 36 Zeno's telling me there's a book.

Speaker 156 Hold on, you wrote a book?

Speaker 62 Oh.

Speaker 87 I'm in the process of finishing it. Yeah.
You wrote a book? I never said anything.

Speaker 146 Congratulations.

Speaker 88 Oh, there it is.

Speaker 32 Hey, congratulations. Thank you.
Thank you. No problem.

Speaker 87 Yeah, I've had a unique journey so far, and

Speaker 87 I felt like it was time to, it's not a memoir. I don't want to go there, but I felt like I just, I've had such a unique journey on the road and off the road and just

Speaker 87 creatively and all kinds of stuff. I felt like it was time to have, to do it while it fits in between the front cover and the back cover.

Speaker 52 Yeah, absolutely.

Speaker 81 Are you reading it for the

Speaker 88 I have to read it? Yeah.

Speaker 87 Like I'm writing it with this girl, Holly Gleason, who's been a part of my life for a long time. She's been a part of my journey and this has been something we've been working on for a while.

Speaker 87 And it's really, I've never wanted to write a book because I don't love talking about myself that much. I'd rather write songs and make records based on y'all's lives.
You know what I mean?

Speaker 87 To find commonality like that. So to write a book and then have to read all the chapters and it's really, it's really interesting.

Speaker 111 Yeah, well, congratulations.

Speaker 15 It's a massive decision.

Speaker 106 It's also a massive amount of task at hand to finish a book. Yeah.

Speaker 29 I'm excited to read it, brother.

Speaker 15 And you say you hate talking about yourself, but at this stage, you're a GOAT, dude.

Speaker 13 So a lot of people will find inspiration, and I assume people will be able to get some knowledge.

Speaker 87 You know, I was a kid in East Tennessee that grew up in the country that loved Tennessee football, and that's all we had. And I had a big dream in my head, and I loved music more than anything.

Speaker 87 And if there's some kid out there in the world that could learn something from my journey, this is one of the reasons I wanted to write the book.

Speaker 82 Hell yeah.

Speaker 180 Is there a chapter in there about Tennessee coming up to the north and getting their asses beat?

Speaker 58 It should be.

Speaker 52 I love Type's team.

Speaker 37 I love Type Pool's team.

Speaker 165 They did get rinsed.

Speaker 8 Iamalia.

Speaker 79 I get rinsed.

Speaker 77 Nico Iamaliava, I think he showed a lot of toughness on that night.

Speaker 15 I don't think people fully understand how cold it was and how many hits he was taking.

Speaker 13 Cracked two of them.

Speaker 19 I love the Tennessee team.

Speaker 154 Two of them, I think.

Speaker 21 Cracked two of his helmets.

Speaker 15 I love the Tennessee team.

Speaker 73 I think they're about a year out or whatever the the case is.

Speaker 15 But that Ohio State team, that was like, I think when we all realized,

Speaker 34 hold on, this might be the real deal here. And they would inevitably beat that.

Speaker 87 I'm not going to say they got a bad draw, but usually

Speaker 87 when you play the NCAA basketball tournament, the best team plays the worst team and kind of goes to there, right?

Speaker 111 It went that way with football.

Speaker 118 I wonder why.

Speaker 43 Oh, so.

Speaker 52 It was all.

Speaker 128 You got the memo, huh?

Speaker 147 The seating's bullshit.

Speaker 203 The seating was weird.

Speaker 3 Like,

Speaker 67 I think Oregon got screwed.

Speaker 87 Like, Oregon, like, should have played the worst team, and Ohio State played the second worst team and but no yeah there was a lot of conversation It was really interesting.

Speaker 4 I think they're gonna adjust that have to

Speaker 52 I think from what they're saying.

Speaker 169 I think if you speak up about maybe make a song about it.

Speaker 182 Oh, there we go.

Speaker 32 Did you see the college football playoffs song?

Speaker 62 I already got a song.

Speaker 128 So it's already a song.

Speaker 52 Oh man. It's really good.

Speaker 88 Did you write it?

Speaker 37 I could only dream.

Speaker 48 I can only dream.

Speaker 108 It's about time. I'm piecing that together.

Speaker 162 More schools get a shot.

Speaker 172 Shot the shot.

Speaker 88 It's a 14 and a lot more fun.

Speaker 48 Starting with 12,

Speaker 136 down to one.

Speaker 62 That's how we crown a CFP national champ.

Speaker 11 Champion.

Speaker 7 Yeah, we remember that.

Speaker 31 He was ruining ourselves, of course.

Speaker 87 I just want to ask you to do the video.

Speaker 52 We didn't.

Speaker 7 This is not our song.

Speaker 161 Oh, yeah.

Speaker 88 This is the actual song.

Speaker 7 Hold on.

Speaker 137 Kenny? Yeah.

Speaker 52 Congratulations.

Speaker 11 You're welcome.

Speaker 3 You have lived a long life in this music world.

Speaker 7 Yes.

Speaker 15 You have never, and I can't stress this enough, never

Speaker 31 heard a fucking heater like this.

Speaker 21 This was to promote the 12-team playoff from ESPN.

Speaker 172 We're mixing things up.

Speaker 152 More schools get a shot to shine.

Speaker 133 It's more games and a lot more fun.

Speaker 11 Starting with 12, count down to one.

Speaker 122 That's how we crown.

Speaker 45 Huh?

Speaker 172 See it be natural.

Speaker 122 You think it's over.

Speaker 96 It's not.

Speaker 136 numerous champs, keep the dream alive.

Speaker 11 One through four, get a first round by

Speaker 183 eight, host, nine to twelve, because you're talking about

Speaker 183 New Year six, bowls on a rotating basis.

Speaker 103 Barn.

Speaker 189 I mean, it is hooky.

Speaker 88 It is hooky.

Speaker 19 You can stop it.

Speaker 159 We ran that when that first came out. Uh-huh.

Speaker 54 I think I ran it five times in a row.

Speaker 37 Yep.

Speaker 13 And you say hooky, we're still singing that.

Speaker 65 It's hooky.

Speaker 11 We're still singing that.

Speaker 20 But okay, there's a chance.

Speaker 15 Now that legitimately is not ours. That was ESPN created that to market the 12-team playoff because they wanted to be educational in there and the whole thing.

Speaker 15 Some people were saying, and I know there was humans behind it, so I don't want to discredit them, but some people would say, maybe AI made that.

Speaker 169 Like, hey, you punch in the information, maybe AI could create that song or help create that song, whatever the case is.

Speaker 42 How is the music world from your perspective with AI coming into it?

Speaker 15 Because I think I heard Timberland, who is a producer, obviously, his message now is like DJs need to start learning how to work with AI as opposed to trying to fight against AI.

Speaker 99 In the music world, have you thought about this at all and what are your thoughts on it as a whole?

Speaker 94 Well, I think it's- Because it's a big change, right?

Speaker 87 It's a big change, and I think it's a slippery slope.

Speaker 134 Okay. Honestly.

Speaker 87 But I'm a creative person. If I didn't write my own songs, I might have, I don't write all of my own songs, but if I wasn't a creative person,

Speaker 87 I might feel differently. But for someone that's really creative and has been that way his whole adult life, it bothers me a little.

Speaker 12 Because it might hinder it a little bit.

Speaker 3 Because it's just, yeah.

Speaker 36 It might go in the direction of what the AI is pointing you.

Speaker 203 Right, I don't know.

Speaker 87 I just think it's a very slippery slope, and I don't know, I don't know, I don't have an opinion yet, but I know that it's if

Speaker 87 you're creative and you've been doing it a certain way for a long time, it's

Speaker 87 I don't know. It just takes the creativeness out of it for me.

Speaker 118 Okay, I got it.

Speaker 87 That's the only

Speaker 87 negative thing for me.

Speaker 15 Now, you have a Hall of Fame career that is already behind you, and I assume you're only going to continue to make bangers, but like there's people that are only going to be in the AI music.

Speaker 15 I'm excited to see how it ends up working out.

Speaker 147 Go ahead, Gunman.

Speaker 90 Yeah, as one of Coach Music's greatest stars ever, what do you think about the idea like you have to cut your teeth in Nashville?

Speaker 90 Do you feel like it's necessary to go to Nashville and then kind of go from there? Or do you think that's changed as well?

Speaker 87 I mean, if you're creative,

Speaker 87 the Nashville that I moved to is a very wonderful, beautiful, creative space. And so that's why it was great for me.
Now, if you don't write songs,

Speaker 87 I do feel like that you have to work. I mean, this idea

Speaker 87 that you're just going to make it because

Speaker 87 you feel entitled to is not right. I mean,

Speaker 87 you have to get really good good at what you do. But I don't think it's

Speaker 87 that important. You have to obviously have connections, but

Speaker 87 I think

Speaker 87 if you want to be a singer-songwriter like I was, it does help to be in the mix.

Speaker 31 Yeah, that area.

Speaker 87 But

Speaker 87 yeah, I mean,

Speaker 87 we all know and love Willie Nelson. I mean, he moved to Nashville and then moved out because it didn't work and moved to Austin.
That's when his career took off.

Speaker 15 It's crazy. How do you feel about the country music world we're in right now?

Speaker 54 Everything's country.

Speaker 47 Yeah. And everything's...

Speaker 87 Well, that's the thing.

Speaker 87 For people to say they don't love country music right now, it just means they haven't been exposed to all of it.

Speaker 52 Yeah. Because

Speaker 87 now more than ever, there's something for everyone.

Speaker 20 And there's old heads, I assume, in the country world.

Speaker 107 I could just only imagine because I know in the music that we listened to growing up, they would have the same exact feeling about like,

Speaker 111 that ain't whatever.

Speaker 149 That ain't that ain't that.

Speaker 199 Oh, look, they said that about me.

Speaker 120 Yeah, but I'm saying like there was that for a long time, right?

Speaker 19 Now it feels like it is a little bit more of a...

Speaker 52 It's pretty open.

Speaker 87 I mean,

Speaker 160 it really is.

Speaker 87 And I think that's a product of how people consume music you know because when I grew up you either had the country station or the the rock station what we now know and love is classic rock right but um so you had to choose now with all the streaming services and everything you you can listen to anything anywhere in the world anytime you want it so it's all just it's it's Yeah, the genre's there, and there are different genres, but people consume music much differently than they did when I was listening to it.

Speaker 57 What'd they say?

Speaker 73 They said your stuff wasn't country?

Speaker 87 You said they were? Yeah, well, of course. They had a few guitars in it.

Speaker 7 Too few guitars.

Speaker 86 I mean, too many guitars in it.

Speaker 87 Gotcha.

Speaker 31 That's pretty.

Speaker 170 Yeah, it sounds like all vocals to me.

Speaker 48 Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 52 Are you sure you didn't sing that song?

Speaker 114 I know, yeah, right? Yeah.

Speaker 5 I have a couple times.

Speaker 44 Pretty intoxicated.

Speaker 62 It is your concert.

Speaker 147 It's kind of how it goes.

Speaker 15 Ty, has the last question for you here, Kenny?

Speaker 170 Have you thought at all about for the Sphere show how different that's going to be doing just the same venue night after night after night, same show?

Speaker 170 Like, how how much different will that be than going on tour? Because obviously the set list may stay the same, but you're in a new venue seeing new people.

Speaker 87 Yeah, the set list will change a little bit at Sphere. But for me, I mean, it's like I don't gamble, right?

Speaker 52 And I don't

Speaker 52 smart.

Speaker 204 And I don't believe in life.

Speaker 94 I don't do clubs.

Speaker 87 And

Speaker 114 I haven't had alcohol in a long time.

Speaker 87 And

Speaker 87 I don't pay for stuff.

Speaker 114 Right?

Speaker 87 And so, or extracurricular activities, if you know what I mean.

Speaker 40 Yeah, sure, sure, sure.

Speaker 183 So, that's a lot of, that takes a lot of Vegas out.

Speaker 199 So, I'm going to have to go to top golf a lot.

Speaker 15 Okay, you're describing all the things in Vegas that you would have to check off the box to be a distracted.

Speaker 7 Got it, got it.

Speaker 204 So, I'll be getting a lot of, you know, I'll be working out a lot.

Speaker 87 You know, my friend Dan Mullen got the job at UNLV.

Speaker 114 Yeah, how about that?

Speaker 87 And he's going to let us come work out at UNLV's facility, he said.

Speaker 85 So, we're going to be over there a lot.

Speaker 87 So, I stay out of trouble. Okay.

Speaker 178 But as far as the show is concerned,

Speaker 52 you're bored.

Speaker 87 I'm really afraid I'm. No, I won't get bored.

Speaker 21 Stir crazy.

Speaker 104 Like Michael Cole, a friend of mine, friend of ours.

Speaker 33 He's been in WWE for 28 years.

Speaker 74 He's been on the road for like 28 years.

Speaker 41 He's missed three shows.

Speaker 23 Wow.

Speaker 158 He says he's going to go, I can't wait to retire in my ranch and just stay there.

Speaker 21 He's going to get stir crazy.

Speaker 109 Oh, gosh. He's going to get stir crazy because he needs to be moving.

Speaker 107 I feel like you've been on tour for so long.

Speaker 87 Well, speaking of Willie Nelson, he wrote a song once called Still is Still Moving to Me, you know, because he's being gone. He's constantly moving.
And I feel like I'm a bit like a shark.

Speaker 87 Like it's got to be slowly, constantly moving.

Speaker 65 Moving.

Speaker 94 Yeah, or it'll die.

Speaker 87 And I feel like I got a little bit of that in me.

Speaker 37 So you're going to be at the sphere then for how many nights?

Speaker 87 Right now we're on sale for 15 nights, which means we're going to be there two months.

Speaker 87 And so we'll figure it out. And I'll probably go in and out

Speaker 87 from there.

Speaker 87 I got a good core group of workout guys in Malibu, and I'll probably go.

Speaker 52 Hey, you got to move, though. I'm saying you got to move.
Yeah.

Speaker 56 Because I think people do get stir crazy.

Speaker 86 Oh, and I get like residencies.

Speaker 15 I think people do residencies, and it gets stirred.

Speaker 94 Yes, I'll get bored, bored, bored.

Speaker 87 There's only so much streaming things you can watch.

Speaker 182 Bingo, yeah.

Speaker 62 That's just all right.

Speaker 34 Well, keep going. We appreciate the help.

Speaker 124 Love you, brother. Thanks for having me.
Thank you for coming.

Speaker 183 Appreciate you, fellas. Good luck with the book.

Speaker 17 Good luck with Sphere.

Speaker 81 I can't wait to see you out there.

Speaker 12 Keep going, brother. You look younger than ever.

Speaker 21 Ladies and gentlemen, Kenny Jesne.

Speaker 48 Kenny.

Speaker 7 That was a good clean dap.

Speaker 7 That was a good clean dap right there with AJ.

Speaker 52 Clean Jay's.

Speaker 52 Star Wars jacked.

Speaker 50 There's always

Speaker 162 sober.

Speaker 52 Yeah. Yeah, he's locked in.

Speaker 93 That would be a six-sphere show to go to.

Speaker 158 I think so. Think about the ship that's going to happen.

Speaker 52 Oh, yeah. It'll be awesome.

Speaker 15 Yeah, as he was talking to me, like, giving his answer, I was just thinking about, like, oh, there's going to be beach.

Speaker 22 There's going to be breezes that come through there.

Speaker 39 There's going to be probably a ship.

Speaker 15 There's going to be some night.

Speaker 108 I mean, it's going to be.

Speaker 118 Oh, yeah. Pirate action, maybe.

Speaker 31 Yeah.

Speaker 52 I didn't even think about a pirate coming out.

Speaker 88 Exactly.

Speaker 52 Still radio.

Speaker 155 Oh, my God.

Speaker 51 Just being at like a beach bar down in Margaritaville.

Speaker 21 I've looked back on the U2 show and I've thought to myself, yeah, they were playing that for their fans.

Speaker 88 Without a doubt. Deep cool.
So yeah, I don't know if they were.

Speaker 121 Their whole show was set probably before they thought about the Super Bowl being there.

Speaker 162 Yeah, I probably didn't even know the Super Bowl.

Speaker 152 We were with one of the biggest U2 fans in the history of U2.

Speaker 170 Foss did say U2 is his favorite fan, and he was like,

Speaker 106 he might have been inspired by how we were feeling about it.

Speaker 170 Yeah, but if you're a die-hard U2 fan, like you said, I feel like that was your show because no one else who was there for the Super Bowl, who maybe knows like four or five U2 songs, like none of us had a good time.

Speaker 170 You know?

Speaker 103 Had a terrible time.

Speaker 80 Thank you, Shift Lee.

Speaker 103 Bruce had a good time.

Speaker 11 Thank you,

Speaker 90 Betty.

Speaker 148 Bruce fell asleep.

Speaker 148 Oh.

Speaker 20 Is that what you did, Bruce? You fell asleep at that thing? Yeah.

Speaker 90 I was getting nauseous from all the action.

Speaker 161 First of all, past that.

Speaker 134 All the words. That was it.

Speaker 174 I said, you know what?

Speaker 174 I can't look it up at this anymore.

Speaker 101 Bad, bad words.

Speaker 80 All the bad words. Yeah.

Speaker 161 Oh, yeah. Terrible ones.

Speaker 79 Great performance from Bruce today. By the way.

Speaker 53 What do you do today? What do you mean?

Speaker 118 His announcement.

Speaker 88 Five minutes.

Speaker 31 Oh, yeah.

Speaker 188 Hey, I'm proud of you.

Speaker 79 Thank you.

Speaker 93 Appreciate it.

Speaker 91 Great season, boys. But

Speaker 22 I will say,

Speaker 57 just like Nick Sabin said,

Speaker 15 can't change anything going into the biggest game because if you could do something better, why didn't you do it at the beginning of the season?

Speaker 191 Could have been a better year.

Speaker 186 Now that we know what's possible with the five-minute Oh, did you see today?

Speaker 97 Oh,

Speaker 77 fucking hit the drum.

Speaker 137 Yeah.

Speaker 140 It's crazy. Guess we got to get the drum, though.

Speaker 186 Did a full spit.

Speaker 52 Oh. Oh, you have to.
Yeah. Oh, yeah.

Speaker 114 Oh, my.

Speaker 52 Full presentation.

Speaker 48 Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 29 That was great work, Bruce.

Speaker 52 Proud of it.

Speaker 90 We still got a big overreaction Monday. We'll be bringing it.

Speaker 179 Got to bring it. Still bring it.

Speaker 13 Anthony Calhoun walking by, Indianapolis Sports News Legend.

Speaker 7 AC.

Speaker 41 AC, good to see you, buddy.

Speaker 176 Hell yeah, AC.

Speaker 106 Right behind a white guy that was just on camera there.

Speaker 12 We do not know.

Speaker 41 Good to see white guy on camera there.

Speaker 2 Okay, cool, white guy.

Speaker 26 Yep, young Saints fan on camera there.

Speaker 39 All right, good to see you.

Speaker 20 Thanks for hanging out over here.

Speaker 32 All right, we're going to take a break.

Speaker 14 Hey, Q, what did you learn there?

Speaker 9 From

Speaker 113 I mean, the fact that he's sober is kind of crazy going to Vegas. That's quite the temptation.

Speaker 77 Yeah, but that's good that's a good thing.

Speaker 134 Go to Tough Golf.

Speaker 28 That's your first takeaway. The only one

Speaker 164 that his book's going to be off.

Speaker 58 What's going to do for fun out there?

Speaker 88 I mean, not paying for.

Speaker 134 Can't go in a casino,

Speaker 32 can't drink, can't go to any of the fun extracurricular.

Speaker 88 I mean, it was wild.

Speaker 163 Go to top golf.

Speaker 134 That sounds fun.

Speaker 28 Top golf is great.

Speaker 96 It's great. Top golf is a great time.

Speaker 31 Thank you every night.

Speaker 93 The more you hang out with this guy, the more you realize karma is not a real thing.

Speaker 73 Well, that's what Nick says, too. Everybody that's around you.

Speaker 92 Why does everyone say that?

Speaker 58 I don't know.

Speaker 92 I don't know.

Speaker 15 Something you should think about, though.

Speaker 148 Something you should think about.

Speaker 39 Talks to the table over there wearing your titles.

Speaker 4 Boys, how's it going?

Speaker 5 Comfortable?

Speaker 88 Fantastic.

Speaker 134 Unbelievably comfortable.

Speaker 90 I feel really good. It's almost like a back brace because this couch, it's very easy to sink into.

Speaker 2 It's kind of propping you into it.

Speaker 164 To be clear, yeah, I feel like a dead body.

Speaker 7 It's almost holding me in place.

Speaker 69 Those are WWE titles available now at WWE Shaw.

Speaker 39 Is this mean you guys?

Speaker 51 I don't know, maybe.

Speaker 170 You can read into it how you'd like.

Speaker 90 There's a chance. I mean, I've switched twice since this show started.

Speaker 67 Really? Yeah, dead serious.

Speaker 32 Me too. We've all done that.

Speaker 15 How about after Jameis does his thing?

Speaker 52 Yeah, man. Yeah.

Speaker 7 So I need to take that into consideration.

Speaker 79 He broke the game down incredibly.

Speaker 51 The bunch that the Chiefs can do.

Speaker 96 Eagles. And Travis can

Speaker 88 wide open.

Speaker 194 He said that zone, mass zone.

Speaker 93 Sky, sky, sky.

Speaker 77 Good shit. You know the check.

Speaker 121 D-Bunch does it.

Speaker 167 Yeah, what was that all?

Speaker 88 D-Bunny, a couple times.

Speaker 145 Why were you guys doing that to us, you and Jameis?

Speaker 67 That's my guy.

Speaker 91 That's my guy, too. No, because he's a D-B.
He knows a Sky.

Speaker 93 I mean, Sky Cliff.

Speaker 160 Cliff Landry just said, you guys remember Nebraska? Now, fuck you.

Speaker 39 That did happen right here.

Speaker 123 Where to get the best Gator?

Speaker 88 My house.

Speaker 93 I'll send you so.

Speaker 9 Come on over.

Speaker 23 Governor and Mrs.

Speaker 145 Governor, first lady, make the best Gator in town.

Speaker 8 Fried Gator.

Speaker 160 Grilled Gator.

Speaker 110 Fresh Gator.

Speaker 170 Don't really matter what kind of Gator.

Speaker 43 You didn't come home for Gator with me.

Speaker 15 Could Could you imagine going out with Governor Jeff Landry?

Speaker 31 No, it's a dream.

Speaker 164 It's a dream. Add it to the list.

Speaker 148 Is it one of those fan boats?

Speaker 125 Yeah. It has to be.

Speaker 48 Can you imagine?

Speaker 67 Man, it says Jeff Landry.

Speaker 31 He's wearing the side.

Speaker 88 The full boot.

Speaker 35 We're definitely flanked by Stadies, too. Oh, yeah.

Speaker 52 And he's blasting music. Oh, my God.

Speaker 15 Because of how loud that fan is. That's going to have to be so loud.

Speaker 67 So loud.

Speaker 70 No, wait, because the gators will hear.

Speaker 163 He's probably playing Gator music.

Speaker 88 Bring him in.

Speaker 39 What are they?

Speaker 137 Because Florida Gators, they listen to tom petty right down there yeah so is that what the guy i think most gators do tom petty

Speaker 170 that's a good when they sing down there yeah sweet that's a good all these colleges have sweet things they do lsu is the most it's the best most wild yeah it is by far but after hearing guffino jeff landry i can see that you know that it fits in if i don't do the chant i'm disrespecting this place exactly because there's a lot of conversations about how many times i led a couple thousand people into saying some on tv It's like, hey, I don't create the tradition.

Speaker 21 We're trying to experience it, right?

Speaker 52 They have to do it.

Speaker 75 I'm going to tell you, they're in on it. Yeah, they are.

Speaker 118 This is their thing.

Speaker 151 They would like to win, though, again.

Speaker 74 LSU. Yeah.

Speaker 82 Oh, yeah. How about the Saints?

Speaker 73 All we're talking about with the Saints is like they're just set up for a couple years worth of

Speaker 118 shite.

Speaker 170 Kelly Moe, though.

Speaker 57 Sean Payton was able to do it with some shite setup.

Speaker 39 He was.

Speaker 90 Need a quarterback.

Speaker 52 Bad.

Speaker 86 Need a quarterback.

Speaker 15 What else did we learn today? Ari's like, ah, the Bears got us hilt now, huh?

Speaker 88 Yeah. Oh, yeah.

Speaker 67 their taxes.

Speaker 160 He's buying the bears. That's what I'm doing.

Speaker 134 He's definitely.

Speaker 7 What are you guys saying?

Speaker 79 I'm hearing eight to 10 billion today.

Speaker 10 Yeah.

Speaker 87 There's a tax situation, though.

Speaker 86 There's a tax situation.

Speaker 173 Let's take a look. Let's design the will.

Speaker 74 Dude, he's always,

Speaker 71 he is always.

Speaker 15 Every conversation with him is I already know.

Speaker 52 And then he hates me.

Speaker 106 And then I'll get a call back with the person on the other side.

Speaker 15 I'll be like, hey, I think there's an opportunity for, oh, you are so smart, aren't you?

Speaker 44 Hold on.

Speaker 106 Actually chime somebody in.

Speaker 108 Could be anybody. Anybody you've ever heard of.

Speaker 55 Good for you, Dan. Thank you, man.

Speaker 54 50 people, $500.

Speaker 19 You see those knees.

Speaker 52 Unbelievable.

Speaker 170 Great knees. It is.
That's like Elvis 2.0.

Speaker 105 I don't know if Elvis had those knees.

Speaker 7 The hips?

Speaker 45 He did have the hips. He did have the hips.

Speaker 7 I don't know about... Was that? He had it all.

Speaker 121 Maybe not in his later days, you know, when he gained a little bit of weight, but early on, yeah.

Speaker 63 He got comfortable.

Speaker 31 Yeah, he did. That's right.
He was a hound dog.

Speaker 172 After he got screwed by his agent, I watched a buddy who was taking all his money.

Speaker 188 Speaking of aging, I think he wanted to be an FBI agent, I believe.

Speaker 7 I watched a movie.

Speaker 165 He brought a gun, right?

Speaker 108 I don't know.

Speaker 158 I know he just started eating the president's peanut butter MMs or peanut MMs, though.

Speaker 165 Yeah.

Speaker 161 Supposed to do that.

Speaker 167 Hound dogs.

Speaker 36 I guess Elvis just used the lip.

Speaker 29 Yep, there he is.

Speaker 36 Which one's that? Nixon. Nixon.

Speaker 20 Big Nixon, yeah.

Speaker 125 I'm not a crook.

Speaker 35 So Elvis thought he was going to the White House to become a federal agent.

Speaker 76 And Nixon thought Elvis was coming to take a picture so he could up his youth vote.

Speaker 71 So both of their teams met with the other people individually beforehand and laid out rules.

Speaker 63 Okay.

Speaker 107 So like President Nixon's team goes up to Elvis' team and goes, all right, don't put your feet on the desk.

Speaker 56 The peanut M ⁇ Ms are his.

Speaker 41 Obviously, you let him have those.

Speaker 13 The other snacks will be for you.

Speaker 84 And then like the water is this whole thing.

Speaker 151 And then Elvis' team is telling the president's team, all right, here's how the king wants it, the king wants it this.

Speaker 75 Address him as the king.

Speaker 47 And then, neither of them would tell them, right?

Speaker 82 Neither of them would tell them who they were.

Speaker 76 So, as soon as they sit down, Elvis feet right up on the thing, grabs the peanut MMs.

Speaker 106 Then he finds out through the conversation that he's just being used for a photo.

Speaker 77 So, then it's like, this is how the movie depicted it.

Speaker 106 And then, anyways, Elvis became a federal agent at the end of the whole thing.

Speaker 74 Yeah, and that was like why he was the way he was.

Speaker 107 That's like at the end of his life, I think he was like chasing, trying to be.

Speaker 157 It was, I learned a lot about him.

Speaker 31 Yeah, that guy loved wearing gold.

Speaker 137 Yeah, Without a doubt.

Speaker 64 I mean, he loved

Speaker 7 the sauce.

Speaker 101 He did have the sauce.

Speaker 7 Elvis had the sauce.

Speaker 118 Yeah, big time. He did.

Speaker 105 Too much, maybe, sometimes.

Speaker 127 Yeah, they did.

Speaker 19 But that's easy to come, easy to go, they say, for guys. That's right.

Speaker 21 Anyways, Governor Jeff LaHandry, that guy's going to run for president, huh?

Speaker 75 Yeah, I hope so.

Speaker 179 President of the world.

Speaker 163 Cut my vote.

Speaker 26 I think that was a good appearance for him.

Speaker 10 Yeah.

Speaker 164 Yeah. Incredible.

Speaker 145 I think his people walk out of there going,

Speaker 99 Mr. Governor?

Speaker 52 I mean, come on.

Speaker 185 Fuck it. Yeah, Governor, that's a big win.

Speaker 52 Let's go get you some Grill Gator.

Speaker 47 You off with hunting?

Speaker 84 You commented about being on the feet again Peter.

Speaker 19 You said we love our people here, we do.

Speaker 165 Everything about it, home run.

Speaker 105 Mr.

Speaker 158 Governor, what a time.

Speaker 149 South is awesome. All right.

Speaker 149 Football!

Speaker 98 It's wonderful, and we've been celebrating it all week and obviously all season season long.

Speaker 23 And this Sunday, our champion is crowned.

Speaker 56 Will it be the Kansas City Chiefs and will it be a three-peat?

Speaker 20 Or will it be the Philadelphia Eagles getting over the hump that is Patrick Mahomes in the Super Bowl?

Speaker 23 Nick Siriani, the head coach of the Philadelphia Eagles, has been called a

Speaker 164 big dumb dip shit all season long.

Speaker 4 Even after they started running away with either the division or potential great seeding in the playoffs, people continue to say, well, this guy's a liability.

Speaker 28 They're not going to be able to win because this head coach is a...

Speaker 90 big dumb dip shit.

Speaker 20 Now they're in the Super Bowl.

Speaker 18 And on the other side, it's a team that is back-to-back Super Bowl champions, back-to-back the best in the world.

Speaker 47 They would secure the number one seed in the AFC two weeks before the season had ended.

Speaker 36 They had the best record in football, and all anybody kept saying about them all season long was that they were playing

Speaker 164 like hammered dog shit.

Speaker 29 They said this offense is nowhere near what it could be.

Speaker 41 They look like they're playing like

Speaker 170 Absolute shite.

Speaker 29 The defense, yeah, they're keeping them in games, but there's no way this team is anywhere near as good as last year's team or the year before that.

Speaker 29 This is the Kansas City Chiefs team that isn't going to win because this team, although they're winning and beating everybody, they're actually...

Speaker 198 Shite.

Speaker 62 That's not the case at all.

Speaker 159 They're in the Super Bowl.

Speaker 56 They're potentially going to be...

Speaker 54 three-time, three-peating world champs, which has never been done before.

Speaker 196 And all anybody wanted to say about both these teams is that they stink they're either led by a loser or they are losers this year when they used to be winners so you got a lot of motivation you got a lot of conversation and you got a lot of great football for at least four quarters on Sunday and then after that boys

Speaker 165 The whale rolling dry.

Speaker 155 Oh no. Okay.

Speaker 21 We're watching other sports.

Speaker 59 Oh no.

Speaker 145 We're caring about other sports.

Speaker 9 We're talking about drama.

Speaker 15 We're talking about the draft.

Speaker 157 We're talking about players.

Speaker 56 We're talking about teams. We're talking about drama.

Speaker 71 We're talking about storylines.

Speaker 31 But for one more hour here, we're talking about football.

Speaker 161 Hell Hell yeah, you got to be playing.

Speaker 46 Talks and tables here at Boss Connor and at Ty Schmidt.

Speaker 5 One half of the hammer. Down.

Speaker 73 Cowboys AP Tony is here.

Speaker 145 Did you guys get it right last night with the awards as a representative of the Associated Press?

Speaker 99 I did.

Speaker 93 Some people didn't.

Speaker 93 But personally,

Speaker 93 I could put my head down at night and sleep easy knowing I got it right.

Speaker 52 Good job. Okay.

Speaker 88 What do you got, Tony?

Speaker 117 Oh, yeah, Tony. Thank you.

Speaker 78 You're the only one that had Van Ginki.

Speaker 93 I was the only one that had Van Ginki as Defensive Player of the Year.

Speaker 93 You know, he was top eight in sacks, top five in TFLs. He had the most tackles as an edge.
He had two pick sixes, which obviously led edges in that category. I thought he was just all-around.

Speaker 93 Incredible. He was one of the weirdest, not weirdest, but like toughest defensive player of the years in a long time because there was just so many ways.

Speaker 93 I had Pat Sertan as my third just because I'm an edge guy.

Speaker 134 So that's just how I live.

Speaker 15 Well, let's go to host of everything, DB, Good D, Bad D, Darius J.

Speaker 56 Butler, a corner wins defensive player of the year.

Speaker 28 Congratulations to the position.

Speaker 160 Love that, son of a Louisiana legend, Pat Sertan, also a Dolphins legend. So

Speaker 160 great to see him. He was on one of the best defenses in the league.
He was actually locked down. He was the all-around

Speaker 160 best corner in the league, I think, by far, easily hands-down. You got him and Derek Singley Jr., but he was on the Everything DB team, of course.

Speaker 160 And now he joins a very, very short list of cornerbacks to win this award. You got C.
Wood, your former teammate, Rod Woodson, Mel Blunt. I think Steve have had two corners.
Stephon Gilmore, Dion.

Speaker 160 So he is

Speaker 52 building his legacy.

Speaker 67 Ooh, I don't think Revis won it.

Speaker 97 Interesting. Yeah, that's wild.

Speaker 160 That Revis Island year, I don't think he wanted. Champ Bailey, I don't think he wanted either.
He had an unbelievable year as well, but I don't think...

Speaker 4 Well, because if you're like a great corner, you're not getting a lot of action.

Speaker 149 Yep.

Speaker 82 Right? And if you're...

Speaker 82 Yeah, you're not getting a lot of action.

Speaker 73 Even if through the year you blow up, they're going to start sticking away from you.

Speaker 20 So the action has to come to you for you to do great.

Speaker 130 Is that why you think corners not normally?

Speaker 160 And it's hard to, like, you can't just look at a stat sheet and know it.

Speaker 160 Like, you can know know Jamar Chase or for quarterback or Saquon Barkley if one of these guys have a great game just looking at the box score just very much like offensive lineman you don't really know unless you know unless you're a guy who's getting you know Santa Salmon getting 10 11 picks a year so he's had ball production he follows the morning receivers he shows up in the run game he does everything you want to do at that cornerback position he's defense player

Speaker 14 Super Bowl champion AJ Hawk is here AJ is the palpable buzz that we are feeling around us as old friends gather and new friends file in into this place, does it make you go back to the time when you won the Super Bowl, AJ?

Speaker 26 Do you want to put the pads on one last time?

Speaker 76 Is this one of those games where you think to yourself, ooh, I wish I had one more game in me.

Speaker 68 Can you feel that energy radiating through the Super Super Bowl?

Speaker 121 Yeah, I can feel that sarcastic energy radiating through my bones.

Speaker 121 But yeah, I think anytime, not just me as a not just you guys as former players, I mean, Debut, you know, we know you and Jameis have been on the same wavelength for a while.

Speaker 121 You know, anytime you're around the Super Bowl, I remember being a little kid watching the Super Bowl thinking, hell, I want to put my pads on and play right now.

Speaker 121 So I don't think that goes away for really anybody in America.

Speaker 188 Yeah, I think it's the big one.

Speaker 33 You know, and everybody's here.

Speaker 162 We talked to Governor Jeff Diingeria.

Speaker 36 And he talked about the world, you know, seeing even more of New Orleans, especially with what just happened, you know, last month to start the new year here.

Speaker 29 It's like they're very proud of it.

Speaker 36 It's awesome.

Speaker 19 And the Super Bowl is always going to live up to the hype.

Speaker 36 AQ Shipley, you think the game's going to be a great one?

Speaker 151 We have flip-flopped, all of us, numerous times.

Speaker 41 The game has become a pick'em, basically, on ESPN Bet.

Speaker 15 Both teams minus 110 on the money line, which is the same exact odds for either team to win.

Speaker 14 So that's a point tossed.

Speaker 54 Chiefs still favored by one, though, if you were to take the points.

Speaker 93 Last time I checked, yeah.

Speaker 141 But it's still, it's basically a pick'em in this.

Speaker 36 What is the last thing we should think about before we make our pick?

Speaker 113 I think the biggest thing that you have to always take into account when this game happens with the Kansas City Chiefs is

Speaker 113 the triangle between Spaggs, Reed, Mahomes. You just always have to play that in your mind.

Speaker 171 I think there's so many people here that think the Eagles are the team, and they, on paper, are the team, but those three guys are special.

Speaker 103 Okay.

Speaker 39 Thanks for the sage words of advice.

Speaker 21 Before we make our picks, ladies and gentlemen, we have some Gator.

Speaker 162 There's some Gator.

Speaker 43 I believe there's some Gator.

Speaker 52 Gator? Where?

Speaker 137 I believe there's some Gaita.

Speaker 52 Right, Gaita.

Speaker 21 We got some Gator.

Speaker 52 Okay. There's been.
Oh, Gator Bot, too.

Speaker 48 Oh, Gator Parbot.

Speaker 164 Thank you, bro.

Speaker 90 One of my favorite ways to eat Gator.

Speaker 54 Easy and a fish fry, obviously.

Speaker 15 Shout out.

Speaker 43 You guys want some Gator Bot?

Speaker 52 I love some Gator Bot.

Speaker 136 Gator Nugget.

Speaker 52 Look at Gator Nugget.

Speaker 174 Log Gator Nugget. Gator Nugget.

Speaker 136 Catch one. Gaba Nugget, Dale.

Speaker 165 Yeah, throw him right in his mouth. Yeah.

Speaker 137 Oh, no. I got that one.

Speaker 76 Came off a thumb. Sorry about D-bunk.

Speaker 80 I got it.

Speaker 172 Thank you. Sure.

Speaker 22 Cheers to you, boys. Here's a little gator.

Speaker 88 Now that's Gator.

Speaker 92 Good Gator.

Speaker 83 Gator's really good.

Speaker 162 That freaks me out a little bit.

Speaker 93 It's like a mixture between chicken and calamari.

Speaker 90 We used to eat a dinosaur.

Speaker 38 That's well, and then we ate an alien last night, octopus.

Speaker 7 Brue.

Speaker 184 That's good gator.

Speaker 172 That does taste really good.

Speaker 67 I love eating some gator.

Speaker 88 That's unbelievable.

Speaker 52 That's really good. It doesn't compare to Jeff.

Speaker 138 How it just tastes like good.

Speaker 66 Is gator like elk? Chicken nugget.

Speaker 37 I don't know if gator. That's all it is.

Speaker 176 I don't think it's like elk.

Speaker 52 I think gator is.

Speaker 177 Gator like gator.

Speaker 164 Like, what's his name?

Speaker 93 Okay.

Speaker 7 Like Rogan eats elk.

Speaker 91 Like it's a super.

Speaker 181 Like, is Gator like that?

Speaker 3 Gator is

Speaker 3 Gator, Tony?

Speaker 172 Is Gator healthy? Is what he says for you?

Speaker 52 I don't think he's a healthy. I don't think it's fine.

Speaker 64 I don't think Gator nuggets necessarily.

Speaker 170 Definitely not.

Speaker 90 Yeah, it has some grilled Gator, perhaps, that would be a little more healthy. Go.

Speaker 153 Of course.

Speaker 52 Perhaps.

Speaker 43 If I had to guess. From what you have heard.

Speaker 31 From my Gator knowledge.

Speaker 147 Have you been talking to a lot of the locals?

Speaker 83 I've been talking to a lot of locals. Yeah.

Speaker 19 Yeah. Now, how do you feel about the city?

Speaker 90 I feel great about the city. like i said it's just got that detroit flair you know there's something about this place that makes me think of grit and hard work and gator and

Speaker 19 plenty of other things man some pole boys you're telling me when we were walking around the french quarters last night you thought of detroit no way no way i was out of a movie there yeah yeah like a like a eight mile movie but but but france you know

Speaker 52 just something hit me

Speaker 52 I don't know what it was, man.

Speaker 31 I thought I heard Eminem

Speaker 52 rapping in the background.

Speaker 7 That French quarters was cool.

Speaker 25 Yeah, it felt like we were walking in history there, legitimately.

Speaker 72 Oh.

Speaker 16 Tight streets there, cool designs.

Speaker 145 Parts of the Caribbean.

Speaker 19 The way it's set up is wild.

Speaker 52 Yeah, I mean, it's Tortuga.

Speaker 121 It's amazing how quick the accent can rub off on Conman.

Speaker 138 Oh, man, I love it.

Speaker 3 I think this could be you. What accent?

Speaker 51 Yeah, I could definitely love to talk like this.

Speaker 68 I could definitely love it.

Speaker 48 Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 66 I'm quite sure I'd enjoy it.

Speaker 9 All right, before we make our picks, we need to take some quick picks from a man who is from the great country of up north.

Speaker 73 He's been giving out picks for decades and decades.

Speaker 106 Ladies and gentlemen, it's time for Sports Rage.

Speaker 47 Gabriel Morenzi making us some money at the Super Bowl.

Speaker 105 Yay! Gabe!

Speaker 166 Come up, Gabe!

Speaker 201 Yeah!

Speaker 136 Yeah!

Speaker 88 Yeah!

Speaker 88 Okay. Who's got it there?

Speaker 52 Yeah.

Speaker 133 Nobody.

Speaker 132 Yeah, Marenzi.

Speaker 67 Yah, Gabe.

Speaker 43 Hold on, I gotta turn his mic on.

Speaker 92 Turn your mic on.

Speaker 94 Hell yeah.

Speaker 109 Hey, can you turn the handheld on?

Speaker 68 He's got the hand held.

Speaker 108 I wanted AQ to enjoy this.

Speaker 31 My man. You're on.

Speaker 48 Okay.

Speaker 81 Okay, Gabe, every year you come on.

Speaker 84 You bring the energy.

Speaker 126 You bring the juice. You bring the fashion.

Speaker 21 You bring the jacket.

Speaker 55 You bring the

Speaker 22 flair, if you will, but you also try to bring...

Speaker 125 You bring the rage. Oh, yeah.

Speaker 197 Ranging Cajun style.

Speaker 22 Okay, I like that, especially with Little Guide up here.

Speaker 52 Yeah, little gate. Little Gaid up here.

Speaker 169 You also try to bring us some winners.

Speaker 25 And in years past, you gave us first touchdown score.

Speaker 7 Don't beckham Jr.

Speaker 162 plus 750.

Speaker 21 You've hit a couple winners for us in the past.

Speaker 26 Today, what do you have for the big game, and what are you thinking about whenever you're two days out?

Speaker 175 Well, you remember a couple of years ago when these

Speaker 175 two teams played, who scored the first touchdown?

Speaker 137 Jalen Hurts.

Speaker 175 And I'm still upset that I didn't take it two years ago.

Speaker 175 I know Saquon, listen, Saquon Barkley, I think he's going to get out of the end zone, but I think that Jalen Hurts will be the first touchdown scorer of this game.

Speaker 175 But if you're taking someone on Kansas City, I think we'd go with Kareem Hunt at plus 800.

Speaker 52 Oh, running back. Yeah, Kareem Hunt.

Speaker 175 One thing about the Kansas City Chief touchdown props here, guys, normally the team that's favored, it's a shorter price. So you're getting big numbers.

Speaker 175 If you think somebody on Kansas City is going to score first, you're getting a nice price for it. Like Xavier Worthy's 10 to 1.
Travis Kelsey's like 8 to 1.

Speaker 175 Kareem Hunt's like 8 to 1. So I'm going to go with Jalen Hurts.
You get in like plus 600 range. But let's go with a little bit on Kareem Hunt as well, Pat.
Plus 800, baby.

Speaker 76 Okay, so that's first scores.

Speaker 44 Is there anything for first possession? Like, I believe there is first completion, first reception.

Speaker 15 Who would that be?

Speaker 197 I'm not getting too gimmicky.

Speaker 52 Okay, I like that. I like that.

Speaker 11 No, I'm saying that.

Speaker 125 Let's get to the mate and potatoes.

Speaker 175 I don't care what color Taylor Swift's socks are or anything like that.

Speaker 52 Plus, she's not going to wear socks, obviously.

Speaker 51 Incredible heels.

Speaker 66 Heels, I was Zoom.

Speaker 172 Mason boots, man.

Speaker 51 Oh, yeah.

Speaker 200 Red boots.

Speaker 175 No gimmicks, but let's keep it simple. I think the Philadelphia Eagles are going to win this football game

Speaker 175 because of Jalen Hurts and Saquon Barkley on the ground. I think it's going to be a punishing 1-2 attack.
We saw Joe Mixon had success against Kansas City.

Speaker 175 We saw C.J. Stroud had success.
C.J. Stroud doesn't really like to run the football that much.
He took off. This is a playoffs, guys.
You know better than anybody.

Speaker 175 Hell, we see, you know, Tom Brady, Peyton Manning will run into playoffs, right?

Speaker 197 You got a Super Bowl off the line.

Speaker 175 Jalen's not going to hold back. I think 37.5 yards, guys, for Jalen Hurts is too late.

Speaker 175 And you know know what? He's gone over this number in eight of his last 11 games, including the game he got hurt in even against against Washington.

Speaker 109 Yeah, when Kenny Pickett came in.

Speaker 175 And you know he's going to take off in this game.

Speaker 197 I also think Mahomes going to go over his numbers.

Speaker 175 Getting up there, 29.5 right now. I think, you know, we all know Mahomes, sneaky.
You know, that's smart. He's going to get the first down when he needs it.

Speaker 175 I think both quarterbacks are going to go over their rush yards. And I'm not scared of Saquon Barkley over 110, 112 and a half.

Speaker 103 That's a high number.

Speaker 52 It is the Super Bowl. Yeah, it is.

Speaker 175 But all he's been doing is crushing this number, right, on a weekly basis. You can't stop him.
Listen, guys, we saw the Buffalo Bills ran for 73 yards

Speaker 175 in the third quarter alone against Kansas City. For whatever reason, Joe Brady stopped running the ball in the fourth quarter.

Speaker 52 Damn, damn. Come on, Joe.

Speaker 175 I think you can have success. The only gimmicky prop, and this isn't a gimmicky.

Speaker 157 We like

Speaker 157 gimmicky, though.

Speaker 152 No, no, it was sort of a game.

Speaker 11 A little gimmicky.

Speaker 146 A little bit gimmicky. No, this is for the crew here.

Speaker 175 This is for the defensive boys. Over 42.5 made tackles for the kansas city chiefs okay

Speaker 66 over 42 and a half

Speaker 11 lines

Speaker 11 what's a normal line there does that mean what's a normal line i i like your thinking here no no you know exactly don't judge how we afford those nice cowboy hats that's right and boats

Speaker 136 no basically

Speaker 175 i'm thinking jaquan barkley is going to touch the ball like what 25 times 23 times jalen hurts probably going to rush the ball another six seven eight times i think the eagles are going to win the battle the time of possession i think they're just going to wear it them out run the ball down their throat all night long.

Speaker 175 And for the record,

Speaker 175 Kansas City had like 45 tackles.

Speaker 172 Okay, yeah, that's what I'm saying.

Speaker 175 So, yeah, it's sort of in those jets.

Speaker 121 42 and a half of those two players in every battle.

Speaker 52 All together.

Speaker 52 Yeah, total defense.

Speaker 172 This is a new bet I'm worried about.

Speaker 52 Yeah, so put it in.

Speaker 109 Gimmicky, not gimmicky.

Speaker 175 I don't look like an accountant, but I actually am one.

Speaker 67 So I'll tell you.

Speaker 164 Get out of town.

Speaker 31 Not in numbers.

Speaker 48 No way.

Speaker 11 I got books.

Speaker 146 I got books.

Speaker 175 I'm lying once. I'm lying to you in here.

Speaker 67 but

Speaker 175 the Eagles ran 66 plays in their last game.

Speaker 116 Okay.

Speaker 175 All right, so out of the 60 plays, how many times are they going to go out of bounds?

Speaker 7 Does that not count as a tackle?

Speaker 88 That's not a tackle, right?

Speaker 52 So that's the only thing.

Speaker 111 That's a good tackle, though. That player gets a tackle if they're in the class.

Speaker 175 Let's say no one touches Barkley. He just runs out of bounds.

Speaker 52 I lost a player without a tackle.

Speaker 175 So it's like half tackle, assisted tackles, tackles,

Speaker 175 all combined, because I think the Philadelphia Eagles are going to run a lot of plays.

Speaker 175 And I also think, I don't think they're going to run wild. There's going to be times in a game where the Chiefs' defense will stuff them a bit, right? So I'm expecting a lot of plays run.
60, 65 plays

Speaker 175 for the offense.

Speaker 21 I love everything about that.

Speaker 44 Tone has a question for you, Gabe.

Speaker 181 Yeah, I do.

Speaker 93 On that basis, I kind of like Drew Tranquil.

Speaker 79 Sorry.

Speaker 91 He is plus 750 to be the leading tackler in the game.

Speaker 93 He is the Chiefs' leading tackler in the playoffs.

Speaker 91 How do you feel about that?

Speaker 175 That's a good bet. You're getting a nice number.

Speaker 88 He's a good goblin. Good gobbler.

Speaker 118 He's a good gobbler.

Speaker 175 Like I said, that's why he is who he is.

Speaker 93 The favorite is Zach Bond, and then it's Nick Bolton, and then Drew Tranquil, I believe, is fourth shortest odds to be the top tackler in the game. So that's why I went with that one.

Speaker 175 Xavier Worthy. This is another one.
I want to get to Xavier Worthy. Xavier Worthy, we know he's a badass, and we know he's going to haunt the Buffalo Bills from here to eternity.

Speaker 175 Who would have seen that coming? Oh, right.

Speaker 53 Buffalo Bills fan, Gabriel.

Speaker 52 Yeah, man.

Speaker 39 Yeah, it's a great job.

Speaker 175 Let's hand it to them. And I've said this before.
If the Kansas City Chiefs,

Speaker 175 if the building, if somebody's breaking into the Kansas City Chiefs practice facility and you see them you see the robbers leaving I wouldn't call the cops I'd be like listen they're on their own if you're in the Buffalo Bills you had to help them out at this point in time oh you're talking about trading yeah yeah like really at what point in time you learn so I knew that Xavier Worthy was going to score the touchdown against the Bills he did of course and here we go again I think he's going to score a touchdown to the Super Bowl guys I like Xavier Worthy to get into the end zone for the Kansas City Chiefs like plus 155 plus 160 right now

Speaker 175 but I like Xavier Worthy under five and a half receptions Oh, you know, I don't think he's going to catch six balls in this game.

Speaker 175 He's going to catch four or five, and he's going to get a couple of carries. And Xavier Worthy's rushing yard prop is five and a half yards.

Speaker 7 Yeah, slow.

Speaker 31 All right.

Speaker 175 Don't tell me.

Speaker 175 Don't tell me you can't pick that up.

Speaker 86 You know what I mean?

Speaker 118 Like, we're going over five and a half.

Speaker 175 Yeah, Debbie. I also like Saquon Barkley over 14.5 receiving yards.

Speaker 175 That could happen on one little bubble screen.

Speaker 159 Yeah, that's Saquon Barkley football.

Speaker 73 32.5 yards is the average touchdown score for him.

Speaker 143 Go ahead, Debu.

Speaker 160 Speaking of of Saquon and your Bills fans, so congratulations on Josh Allen winning the MVP.

Speaker 164 Who do you like?

Speaker 175 I didn't get a cut of the bonus, man.

Speaker 160 It wasn't a big bonus. Love that.

Speaker 204 But

Speaker 160 what's your best bet for Super Bowl MVP going into the game?

Speaker 175 Super Bowl MVP, when it's all said and done, I think it's going to be Saquon Barkley. I think Saquon Barkley, I've got a final score for you guys from some

Speaker 189 back numbers.

Speaker 52 Fact numbers, baby.

Speaker 175 And warm Detroit can go back to the casino

Speaker 76 and get it done.

Speaker 32 Hit these on the roulette, possibly.

Speaker 175 I love the term.

Speaker 111 I was laughing out loud, man, when I, you know.

Speaker 48 You know what I mean?

Speaker 32 It's governor Boston Collins.

Speaker 52 You know what I mean?

Speaker 175 They're both great cities.

Speaker 52 Yeah, I agree. They're both great cities.

Speaker 175 As far as the total of this football game, the so-called sharps, and I hate the term sharps and squares and all that, but a lot of pro betters, Pat, earlier, they did bet on the under of this football game.

Speaker 175 I personally don't know why. I think there's going to be points.
It's a fast track at the Superdome. There's going to be a couple of trick plays run.
There could be some short fields.

Speaker 175 Both teams are very efficient when they have the football. And all this Kansas City stuff, these guys are open-doping.

Speaker 175 You know, like Floyd Mayweather in the first five, six rounds of a fight in the first weeks of the season. Right? They dialed it up on offense right now.

Speaker 175 Andy Reid starts to run plays that Yale ran in 1912 that you never saw before. So, look, they hung 32 on the Bills.
I think the Chiefs are going to get to 27 points.

Speaker 175 Three touchdowns and two field goals for the Kansas City Chiefs.

Speaker 175 And I've got four touchdowns and one field goal for the Philadelphia Eagles, which adds up to 31-27

Speaker 133 burns.

Speaker 124 31-27 burns.

Speaker 175 And it pays 150 to 1.

Speaker 200 Okay.

Speaker 52 150 to 1. That's good, okay.

Speaker 179 I'll take it. Incredible odds.
I'll take you.

Speaker 56 This has been an incredible combo.

Speaker 36 Gabe, we appreciate you bringing us this juice on Friday.

Speaker 175 And I always appreciate that the tradition continues, my man.

Speaker 19 Absolutely.

Speaker 105 Ladies and gentlemen, sports rage.

Speaker 175 He's got a better nuts.

Speaker 49 Nobody.

Speaker 133 Nobody.

Speaker 35 We appreciate you.

Speaker 52 Missing man as well.

Speaker 173 You know what I mean? I heard that.

Speaker 194 I didn't know. Thank you, Gabe.

Speaker 28 Thank you, Gabe.

Speaker 28 Felt like there were some real

Speaker 52 Gabe.

Speaker 163 Feel like there were some winners in there.

Speaker 67 Oh, yeah.

Speaker 103 Play me might have some winners in there.

Speaker 37 I'll take 31-27.

Speaker 7 Sweet Jack. You have to.
I'm betting it.

Speaker 31 Great job. 150 to 1.

Speaker 76 I'll tell you what, if that hits, Gabe.

Speaker 88 Yep.

Speaker 84 Gabe's going to be on Cloud Hunter. Yeah.

Speaker 51 He's the goat if it hits him.

Speaker 80 He is.

Speaker 13 All of his things, just so much.

Speaker 76 That's how you know he lives and sleeps and eats gambling.

Speaker 137 Yes, he does.

Speaker 36 Always looking for an angle.

Speaker 43 Always looking for an angle.

Speaker 37 He sold me on that tackle in 10. 42 and a half tackles.

Speaker 163 Normally a tackle with about 45. A couple guys run out of bounds.

Speaker 53 I'm losing a play.

Speaker 12 I'm losing the play, so I need that on that whole thing.

Speaker 19 A little gimmicky, not too gimmicky.

Speaker 27 Tones, too.

Speaker 52 Tranquil plus seven

Speaker 90 as the leading tackler on the defense, everyone thinks.

Speaker 130 He's going to be on the field.

Speaker 90 Yeah, with a running team. It feels like Tranquil is a great bet.

Speaker 20 All right, let's get to it.

Speaker 12 Boys, we've been waffling and waffling.

Speaker 93 We have.

Speaker 13 We've taken casino visits and lost our ass and come back.

Speaker 168 We've done this show.

Speaker 158 We've talked to experts. Yeah.

Speaker 107 People that know it inside and out, big old brains.

Speaker 76 And we've gone to dinners and we've gone to casinos, lost our ass,

Speaker 188 patio.

Speaker 76 Talk about good old days.

Speaker 7 Oh, yeah. Yeah.
We're in them.

Speaker 31 We're in them right now. We're in them.

Speaker 41 And do a show, talk to more more experts.

Speaker 120 Yep.

Speaker 59 Waffle, waffle, waffle, waffle, waffle.

Speaker 120 We've been flip-flopping all of us.

Speaker 54 I think if everybody's been telling the truth,

Speaker 20 none of us have had any conviction on who's going to win this Super Bowl, which is exactly how it's supposed to be, I think.

Speaker 107 The AFC's best, taking on the NFC's best, and nobody has a fucking clue.

Speaker 7 That's great news.

Speaker 73 There's been people on TV that have made picks in back-to-back days, and they picked both teams.

Speaker 118 Yep. Can't blame them.

Speaker 43 Hey, who's going to win?

Speaker 83 Eagles. They're going to bully them.

Speaker 110 Then they have to go and lay down at night.

Speaker 26 Uh-huh. And they have to read through their mentions.

Speaker 20 And they have to see everybody say, oh, okay, so Patrick Mahomes isn't even playing in this game.

Speaker 149 And you wake up, you're like, Patrick Mahomes is playing.

Speaker 35 Chiefs are going to win. That's what they do.

Speaker 41 You pick the Chiefs the next day.

Speaker 145 Everybody's like that.

Speaker 36 Basically, a pick'em on the ESPN bet.

Speaker 16 Minus 110 for both parties on the money line.

Speaker 105 That being said, let's make our picks.

Speaker 42 It will be a pick'em.

Speaker 149 The one point does not matter to wrap this thing up.

Speaker 70 We'll start with you, A.Q.

Speaker 23 Shipley, host of In the Trenches, handed out a trenchy award to the Philadelphia Eagles offensive line for being the best offensive line in the game.

Speaker 36 A.Q. Shipley, who do you pick?

Speaker 188 How do you pick?

Speaker 115 Well, see, there's been no waffling here.

Speaker 113 I have been fully convicted.

Speaker 52 I have unwaved on the Philadelphia Eagles' offensive line.

Speaker 88 I've wavered a little bit on one guy, but I've never wavered on the Philadelphia Eagles' offensive line.

Speaker 171 Because of that.

Speaker 52 They're going to win.

Speaker 173 They are going to win.

Speaker 113 And I think they're going to win exactly the way that Gabe just said it. They're going to get the ball and they're going to pound it.
Saquon's going to run it.

Speaker 115 Offensive line, they're all back.

Speaker 113 The center's back, the guard back.

Speaker 179 They got a fully healthy group.

Speaker 88 How healthy?

Speaker 113 No idea.

Speaker 119 It's a Super Bowl.

Speaker 113 We use everything you got.

Speaker 88 Eagles will win this game.

Speaker 39 Okay, there for a bit.

Speaker 73 You did question.

Speaker 137 Didn't he? Yeah, you did.

Speaker 103 Because you said you never wavered.

Speaker 19 You had them as the sixth best team in the divisional round.

Speaker 52 You had 18.

Speaker 27 You had the Rams above them.

Speaker 113 But where did I have that offensive line that same week?

Speaker 19 Number one, but you said they can't win the game.

Speaker 113 Well, that changed after I saw that offensive line win the game.

Speaker 31 Okay, yeah,

Speaker 199 your thoughts have evolved every day.

Speaker 27 They've evolved.

Speaker 52 Wait a minute.

Speaker 111 This group is legendary.

Speaker 98 Is there a chance that they go down in conversation?

Speaker 120 They could have had the rushing title.

Speaker 70 Could have.

Speaker 14 I mean, everybody, that would have been a big game from Saquon and from them, but they could have had it.

Speaker 70 They are by far the reason why they are winning.

Speaker 15 The stats say both yards before contact for Saquon Barkley and the amount of rushes versus the amount of passes that the offense has done as a whole, they've put the team on their back.

Speaker 98 Will they be in a historic conversation?

Speaker 15 Who is in in the historic conversation of offensive lines?

Speaker 113 Yeah, I think they're going to be in the top five conversation of all time. I really do.
I think you go back to some of those Steelers' offensive lines in the 70s. They were phenomenal.

Speaker 115 I think they put four or five in the Hall of Fame.

Speaker 113 They got a bunch of guys on this Eagles team.

Speaker 115 Cowboys exactly with Larry Allen. I mean, they were.
And obviously Pickerson's group.

Speaker 113 But when you take a look, and now that you have these stats of how many yards Saquon had before being touched, it is all on the offensive line when those stats come out.

Speaker 39 How about it? Congrats to the big boys.

Speaker 72 Can they win the big one?

Speaker 76 AQ Shipley says yes.

Speaker 154 Let's go to one half of the hammer.

Speaker 22 Cowboys AP tone.

Speaker 55 AP, you had your MVP ballot correct.

Speaker 134 Uh-huh. Yep.

Speaker 154 Congratulations. Thank you.

Speaker 15 Do you appreciate the fact that people were wondering why you got a vote and then you saw everybody else who had a vote and said, wait a second, who?

Speaker 52 Well,

Speaker 137 I'm the problem.

Speaker 157 Spelled your name wrong.

Speaker 117 A lot of people

Speaker 93 are saying, how come Tony Diggs is not on this list? That's not my actual name.

Speaker 134 My name is Anthony.

Speaker 93 Short, Tony Short for Anthony.

Speaker 26 There's people that don't know that.

Speaker 160 Yes.

Speaker 15 See, that's the problem. There's some places that have zero Italians.

Speaker 7 Yeah, well, exactly.

Speaker 88 Not a problem, but

Speaker 86 I see what you mean. Spelling.

Speaker 51 I can hurt it.

Speaker 52 Please, please.

Speaker 15 Anthony, you did great with your AP votes.

Speaker 37 You represented this program very well.

Speaker 109 We're proud of you. Thank you.

Speaker 3 Thank you, thank you for the opportunity.

Speaker 12 Thank you for doing all the work.

Speaker 93 I did waffle.

Speaker 93 Early in the week was always the Eagles for me, just because on paper, statistically, the matchups, I thought they were the better team and the better matchup. Today, I waffled a bit in my head.

Speaker 93 You're not going to bet against Patrick Mahomes, are you? But I am.

Speaker 93 I'm going to stick with my prediction early in the week and my gut early in the week, and I am going to go with the Philadelphia Eagles.

Speaker 179 Okay.

Speaker 194 O-line D-line, Howie.

Speaker 52 Listen, O-line D-line.

Speaker 93 You were born and raised in a steel town, built-on running game and defense. You kind of always tend to lean that way, and that's what I'm going going to do.

Speaker 54 Okay, so Akush taking the offensive line.

Speaker 154 Anthony DiGulio

Speaker 18 taking the Eagles and the power football.

Speaker 15 Let's go to the toxic table.

Speaker 69 You two are wearing titles.

Speaker 12 Have been all damn day.

Speaker 22 Ty, we'll start with you.

Speaker 100 Who are you picking, and is it the Kansas City Chiefs?

Speaker 20 Because you've been wearing that all day.

Speaker 170 Well, maybe.

Speaker 170 But listen, I love Sirianni more than just about any coach in the league. I feel like me and him have we're a bit simpatico, you know, or we've become that way a little bit.

Speaker 41 Yeah, because it feels like you're maybe speaking for himself.

Speaker 170 Maybe sometimes, yeah.

Speaker 52 Listen, Cooper DeGene, you know, I got an Iowa Hawkeye starting in the Super Bowl.

Speaker 170 You shit me, his rookie year. His birthday is on Super Bowl Sunday.

Speaker 91 Saquon's birthday is on Super Bowl Sunday.

Speaker 171 I want the Eagles to win.

Speaker 170 I really do.

Speaker 101 I don't think they're going to.

Speaker 67 Jeez.

Speaker 170 It's been the same thing. I started early on.

Speaker 37 On their birthdays?

Speaker 170 On their birthdays. I know.

Speaker 170 I just,

Speaker 170 Mahomes just doesn't really lose these games. I think the Eagles may have to win by like 10, 13 points.
And we talked about that yesterday. Like, it doesn't matter if the Chiefs get down 13 points.

Speaker 170 It doesn't matter if they get down 20 points. Like, there's a good chance that Mahomes is just going to will them to a victory.
I think he's going to do it again.

Speaker 170 But I would love to see the Eagles win.

Speaker 179 I just don't think they're going to.

Speaker 15 So you've had the same thoughts as we all have, but you've actually decided to waffle all the way over.

Speaker 145 Yes.

Speaker 15 Dig said he thought about that this morning and he was like, no, I'm not going. I'm going to stick with it.

Speaker 7 You had that thought this morning you're like yeah what yeah that's mahomes yeah that's patrick mahomes there's a reason

Speaker 90 he's already in the goat conversation exactly yeah boston connor over there on the toxic table you have the philadelphia eagles title you can get at wwe shop.com it's beautiful it's been holding you up you say yeah it has truly is there a reason you're wearing it uh no there isn't actually i woke up this morning and i said i could see the eagles crying i could see the the red and white confetti you know serial you can see mahomes driving down the field down by two, getting all the way down to the goal line, kneeling it out a couple times, get that clock down to five, kick a field goal, game over, three-peat, the merch is everywhere.

Speaker 90 Pat Riley makes a billion dollars. I could see that in my brain.

Speaker 118 But then I could also see, you know, my Philly bloodline.

Speaker 90 You know, my mother's from Philly, okay?

Speaker 118 I got Philly blood in these veins.

Speaker 52 And then

Speaker 90 I think about how could I not acknowledge Philadelphia and what they've done this year? And Jalen Hurts and that O-line and Sirianni. And you know, I watched the Stars Born on Sunday a week ago.

Speaker 155 How was it?

Speaker 90 Bradley Cooper.

Speaker 74 So good. He's the front man.

Speaker 90 And as I'm kind of just looking to Sunday, I see Bradley Cooper slinging Philly cheesesteaks on that field to everybody, every player who just...

Speaker 90 dumped Gatorade onto Coach Nick Siriani, who isn't a big dumb dip shit, who's a genius, who's kind of the future.

Speaker 193 This great man right there.

Speaker 15 Serving cheesesteaks right now out of a food truck here in Louisiana.

Speaker 88 He's dealing them.

Speaker 164 You know what that brings?

Speaker 86 Good mojo.

Speaker 126 You know what good mojo brings? What's that?

Speaker 79 Super Bowls.

Speaker 90 So I'm riding with the Philadelphia Eagles.

Speaker 146 I think the Eagles are going to win.

Speaker 177 I really do.

Speaker 90 I think three peats are incredible, but I don't think they're meant to happen.

Speaker 90 I truly don't. I think this is finally Philly's year.
And, you know, to what Drew Brees said, we did hear a lot from a lot of people. Drew Brees yesterday said Philly's the most desperate team,

Speaker 115 and I love a good desperation.

Speaker 67 Hungry dogs.

Speaker 7 Victio, we talked about how long he's been in the game.

Speaker 177 No Super Bowls.

Speaker 90 Like, you know, he's going to have something up his sleeve. Spags and Reed for sure.
But you know, Fangio is not walking into the Super Bowl, never being there, never winning it.

Speaker 101 Just like, yeah, let's just run everything that we've been doing.

Speaker 90 I think he's going to mix it up. I think it's going to be a great game, but the Eagles win.

Speaker 15 Okay, so a title belts were an indicator earlier. Happy to see it.

Speaker 73 Way to represent boys.

Speaker 90 E-L-G-S-E-S.

Speaker 15 I might have just got swayed another time.

Speaker 9 Nine-year NFL vet.

Speaker 19 Massive football brain.

Speaker 76 Looks like he's not 100% sure where he's headed yet either.

Speaker 34 Ladies and gentlemen, host everything, D.B. Good, D.
Bad.

Speaker 84 Darijay Butler. How do you like the game

Speaker 37 to turn out?

Speaker 88 Been waffling.

Speaker 67 Been waffling all week long.

Speaker 160 You know, because everybody's been saying it all week long. You look at the rosters.
Eagles got the better roster. There's no doubt about it.
They got more talent.

Speaker 160 They got more money spent on the rosters. It's well constructed.
But then you're like, I can't bet against Patrick Mahomes in the Super Bowl. He always gets it done.

Speaker 160 You think about the triangle you mentioned, Andy Reid, Patrick Mahomes, Spaghs. They always get it done in the biggest moments.
And history's, you know, it's routing the line, three-peak.

Speaker 160 They are the villains.

Speaker 133 But

Speaker 160 that being said, when you root for four teams

Speaker 160 and one of them make it, Jalen Hurst doesn't turn the ball over. Maddie P talked about it earlier.
We talked about it here from a bunch of people.

Speaker 160 Maddie P has been on this stage in this moment for a bunch of times. Number one defense, number one rushing attack with the quarterback that doesn't turn their ball over.
I think it's their time.

Speaker 160 Philly, they get it done. Okay.

Speaker 128 Fly Eagles fly.

Speaker 137 Wow. Wow.

Speaker 31 Yeah.

Speaker 137 E-A-G-L-E-S.

Speaker 88 Eagles.

Speaker 15 It's four out of the five votes thus far on this particular.

Speaker 51 Don't feel great about that.

Speaker 164 No, I mean,

Speaker 107 it's five out of six if you count Gabe Morenzi, who gave his pick.

Speaker 19 A.J.

Speaker 21 Hawk, Super Bowl champion, all-time leading tackler for the Green Bay Packers.

Speaker 98 Have you been swayed by anybody on the stage thus far?

Speaker 16 And which way are you leaning?

Speaker 165 Well, I'm kind of,

Speaker 121 I've been swayed all week. I absolutely have.
Every single day, I've thought different things, but since I have sat up here, I'd say the last 12 minutes, I'm 100% sold.

Speaker 42 Okay, that's all you need.

Speaker 121 That's all I need. The last 12, I'm like, I'm like Bill McComas when someone's attacking his blackjack skills.
Like, he's going to die on that. It's a hill he's willing to die on.

Speaker 121 It's how he plays blackjack, right? Yes, I agree. That's how strong I feel about my.

Speaker 188 He was actually starting to get heated at us for calling out what was happening in front of his hand.

Speaker 117 Smart move. Turn it on him.

Speaker 112 Turn it on.

Speaker 33 Yeah, he was trying to turn it on us, but too many people are like, nah, this is

Speaker 36 pretty asinine, dude, what you're doing.

Speaker 20 Yeah.

Speaker 121 And that's...

Speaker 137 But it made him a firmer believer.

Speaker 121 Being persecuted by you guys makes me more firm in my beliefs that the Philadelphia Eagles win this game 31-24.

Speaker 117 Wow.

Speaker 19 We didn't persecute you though.

Speaker 123 I didn't see that coming.

Speaker 79 I felt it. I felt it.

Speaker 66 I thought you were chiefs the whole time.

Speaker 164 I really did.

Speaker 52 Until now.

Speaker 88 I might have been.

Speaker 52 Last 12 minutes.

Speaker 176 Eagles.

Speaker 160 Eagles. Great chance we end up with a Patrick Mahomes real

Speaker 52 chief. Is that right?

Speaker 52 Yeah, got one.

Speaker 52 I mean,

Speaker 121 we're just giving them more motivation.

Speaker 147 Gumpy, who do you got?

Speaker 173 Love the Chiefs.

Speaker 7 Okay, we got two.

Speaker 205 Okay.

Speaker 73 Bobby O'Karique's over there. That's a good sign.

Speaker 22 Good to see you, Bobby.

Speaker 31 Bobby.

Speaker 70 Bobby, good to see you, Bobby.

Speaker 134 It's a big moment, Bobby.

Speaker 135 Yeah. Keep moving, Bobby.

Speaker 119 Who's Jeff Landry picking?

Speaker 25 Asked him on Sunday morning.

Speaker 9 He said.

Speaker 90 Yeah, he still doesn't know.

Speaker 71 I've been watching it in the box.

Speaker 110 It's my state.

Speaker 164 My wife got two tickets.

Speaker 51 She's lucky enough to bring me.

Speaker 118 No, I'm lucky enough to be brought back.

Speaker 103 Lucky enough, yeah, excuse me.

Speaker 111 Yeah, the way you say that really make it look bad. Yeah, true.

Speaker 111 Or the other way.

Speaker 135 Apologies, Governor.

Speaker 155 Man.

Speaker 12 You know.

Speaker 9 12 minutes you've been locked in?

Speaker 165 I'm not joking. Yeah.

Speaker 88 Very simple.

Speaker 7 I've been waffled in my life.

Speaker 154 Would you like to change your pick?

Speaker 52 No.

Speaker 71 Stick it with it. Would anybody like to change their pick?

Speaker 7 No. I'm thinking about it.

Speaker 165 I'm not, but I'm not.

Speaker 31 No, I can't.

Speaker 135 Locked in.

Speaker 82 You got to acknowledge your bloodline.

Speaker 31 I got my bloodline. I'm not.

Speaker 7 I'll take the Philadelphia Eagles.

Speaker 10 Wow.

Speaker 12 That was hard coming out of my mouth.

Speaker 165 I don't like it one bit. Bad.

Speaker 41 Chiefs are still the Chiefs, ain't they?

Speaker 52 Yeah, I thought that's what they are.

Speaker 58 History.

Speaker 90 Three Pete. That's what they said immediately after the last.

Speaker 20 I'm taking the Chiefs.

Speaker 52 Get the fuck out of here.

Speaker 190 What was I thinking there?

Speaker 67 Fake Andy Reid. I'm worried.
He's seen him every year and they've won.

Speaker 52 I'm worried.

Speaker 121 I saw him bopping around every day the last couple years. Same with the wolf.

Speaker 179 A lot of bopping.

Speaker 69 There's been a lot of green here.

Speaker 36 He's got a Philadelphia thing that says build a wall around Philadelphia.

Speaker 160 The hell?

Speaker 16 That's not a compliment to Philly. That's right.

Speaker 62 But at least it's got Pennsylvania reference on it.

Speaker 96 He literally said,

Speaker 71 build a wall around Philly to make it better Pennsylvania.

Speaker 62 It's a Pittsburgh reference.

Speaker 163 Shows where he stands on Texas, though.

Speaker 11 Yeah, well.

His sign says that is accurate.

Speaker 15 That's a good sign. It's an accurate accurate sign.

Speaker 20 Looks like it was made by hand, too, so that's maximum effort, like the work ethic of the sign.

Speaker 39 Everything good about the sign there.

Speaker 184 Maybe.

Speaker 74 Or maybe it's you guys. Oh, no.

Speaker 157 Could be.

Speaker 105 Maybe I think.

Speaker 105 Nope. Staying with the Chiefs.
Yep.

Speaker 90 This one doesn't. It's because you want the Eagles to win.

Speaker 170 Like, I want the Eagles to win.

Speaker 57 I just, I just, it's the Chiefs. Yeah, so what happens if the Eagles win?

Speaker 98 Then the Chiefs don't have the refs on their side to win every game, or how's this work?

Speaker 59 How's that conversation go?

Speaker 35 No, they still do.

Speaker 105 Hey, just to get to the Super Bowl.

Speaker 170 People will cherry pick.

Speaker 101 They're trying to give it to him.

Speaker 172 Oh, they're trying to give it to him.

Speaker 149 I'm saying that whole thing.

Speaker 177 I had to beat the refs and the Chiefs.

Speaker 31 What is the over-under on calls?

Speaker 147 Beat the champ.

Speaker 160 You got to knock them out.
