1:24

this is our this is our trophy illusion.

1:26

III understand that I'm kinda putting

1:28

myself in there as a Nebraska. No. It's us. It's the

1:30

whole big ten. It's the whole big ten. Right.

1:33

That will be that will be up and coming after you

1:35

actually disintegrating gravity. And I think it's

1:37

important that we'll brought up the playoffs because it's really

1:39

starting to seem like the playoff make sure it's starting to

1:41

emerge, but one team has already won it

1:43

all. That team is Chevy and its

1:45

star player, the Silverado. a

1:48

truck with unstoppable grit and determination.

1:51

According to JB Power, Chevy

1:53

trucks have earned more new vehicle quality

1:55

awards than any other brand. That's some

1:57

serious hardware. So go and head over to Chevy

2:19

Hey. But also, shadow

2:21

NAD.

2:22

Yeah. That really worked out. That

2:24

really worked out. Now let's let's let's hop back on that

2:26

real quick. The college football playoffs. We

2:28

had a debacle, you, me,

2:31

Portnoy, big

2:32

cat, and then is Ed? Big

2:35

big ass. Ed. Who's a who's

2:37

an outstanding human being? Great personality, a

2:39

huge house state fan. He is a

2:41

unit. He is an absolute unit. And he we

2:43

were trying to say, hey, listen. If Michigan's the only

2:45

team that's in this whole thing, you need to

2:48

be rooting for Michigan because it makes everybody look better.

2:50

that blowout you guys see in Columbus now looks

2:52

a whole lot better. Nebraska looks a whole lot better, which

2:54

we need to talk about that -- Mhmm. -- because Dion Sanders makes

2:56

me a little nervous about that first game next year. We can

2:58

talk about that in a second. Now,

3:00

I think all us big ten fans

3:03

wanna see in Ohio State Michigan National

3:05

Championship Fight.

3:06

But couple

3:09

t couple games coming up right now, TCU. Max

3:12

Duggier. How do you feel about how

3:14

is it? Dogan. How do you

3:16

feel about how the the play off

3:18

has shaped up? Like, you guys, like, TCU

3:20

lost. They're still number three. Ohio State slides

3:22

in. Congratulations, Mitch. I know Mitch

3:25

is new to the show. I know everybody keeps hearing Mitch's

3:27

name. Mitch is Ohio State. He loves

3:29

Holiday because he played with him back in the n c double

3:31

a back during the day -- Yeah. -- video games.

3:33

Yeah. He's been in Holiday. It's well prior on that.

3:35

We'll give him Holiday Buddo,

3:38

Jose snuck in. That's something that

3:40

we obviously didn't see at all coming. Right. because

3:43

we're really trying to argue everybody. We all

3:45

need to back mission. We all need to do XYZ Now

3:47

how stay stuck in? We have two big ten

3:49

teams in the basketball playoffs. We have

3:51

three different opportunities now to take out the SEC.

3:54

I know that's like an anti SEC, but also

3:56

pro big ten. So I don't know

3:58

which one. At the end of the day, as long as the SEC

3:59

doesn't win, I will

4:02

be happy if Michigan wins.

4:03

But to me, as long as the SEC doesn't win, I think

4:06

if that is That is what we

4:08

need. Wonderful. House state wins.

4:09

I'll be Whoa.

4:12

Hang on. So

4:14

If a hostile state wins, then that means a hostile state

4:16

beat Georgia. I'm throwing a fucking

4:18

party. If miss when when Michigan

4:21

beats TCU and if a hostile state were

4:23

to be Georgia, that is the greatest

4:25

scenario, like The greatest scenario. This is national

4:27

championship. I'm rock and blue. Like, I'm

4:29

for the boys. I'm for the Michigan boys at that point.

4:32

Mhmm. Boston is a winner. It's like fuck. But

4:34

me, there's, like, there's there's so much not of a dog

4:36

in the fight that it's, like, fuck, man. I feel bad for

4:38

the boys working because they waxed them

4:40

in the regular season. and they kinda slept

4:42

on him. If that was the case, they would sleep on him

4:44

in the and that would be fun, dude. If

4:46

the if the game if the greatest rivalry

4:48

in all of sports. He said it. Workly. We

4:51

needed him to say that. Kids

4:53

to face off in the national championship just

4:55

a month out from Michigan beaten that

4:57

ass more so in the fourth quarter. However, that

4:59

would be iconic, dude. It would it really

5:02

would be. And listen, if Ohio state

5:04

can beat Georgia, which I'm praying. I'm praying

5:06

to the high heavens that a house seat a house they can

5:08

beat Georgia. That's incredible. I do think

5:10

missions go in. They're gonna take one reason.

5:12

Why do you want a house to beat Georgia? because

5:14

then the big ten's one. The

5:16

big ten has one. And I think if we're looking at the

5:18

big maybe. Well, let me just say this. I will. I've

5:20

said I said in the last podcast, we we

5:23

need everybody behind Michigan. We need

5:25

everybody behind Michigan for the national

5:27

championship. That goes for everybody in the Bay ten. Now

5:29

I need to practice what I preach. Let's say in

5:31

a horrible case scenario, TCU Beach,

5:33

Michigan and Ohio State Beach, Georgia.

5:37

I'm scarlet and gray. And

5:39

that is because it's bigger than myself.

5:41

It's bigger than myself. It's about

5:44

the big ten taking over

5:46

the national championship of the national NCAA

5:48

landscape in being the best conference in

5:50

the whole entire country. I hated saying

5:53

that, hey, I know there's a lot of people that are upset about

5:55

that. Yeah. Like that. perfect. That's a perfect little

5:57

small clip just a half because you might get

5:59

a little drug by that. Mhmm. All all

6:01

because make sure that's in the clip there.

6:04

All all because, like, you don't have to

6:06

say that yet. You know what I mean? Yeah. But

6:08

I'm saying you don't even have to preface it. Like,

6:11

you can say I'm rooting for a hostage over Georgia

6:13

and then be fine with it because you want big ten to win.

6:15

Like, you're wearing Farland and Gray against Georgia. But

6:17

just completely assume that TCO will get Michigan

6:19

if I'll stay with No. I I literally said in the worst

6:21

case scenario. Worst case scenario.

6:24

I think both of us have already said the

6:26

best case scenarios in House State Michigan

6:28

National Championship. The reason both doesn't play

6:30

is I'm not I'm not either one of these

6:32

massive rivalries. You know what I'm saying? Like,

6:34

I'm I'm on the coattails. Like

6:37

-- Yeah. -- but if if let's switch out

6:39

Michigan for Nebraska. Not on the co sales. You you're

6:42

I'm running yeah. I'm driving this model number two team

6:44

in the country. Yes. Saying if in worst

6:46

case scenario, we lose, and then allstate

6:48

wins, I will Rooopro, Ohio State.

6:50

Four things. I'm just great or good in the Bay ten. You didn't have

6:52

to say that. I know I didn't have to say nothing. But

6:54

if this is me, hopefully, Bayev,

6:57

people watching People watching gossiping

6:59

fans. bitch. Yeah. And I hope you guys

7:01

understand, like, I understand that this is bigger than me.

7:03

This is bigger than The grand scheme is

7:05

to get the Bay 10s at the top. I believe Michigan's

7:08

gonna be the team to do that. I, in my heart of

7:10

hearts, think they're gonna doggy stomped TCU,

7:12

Max Dugger, Horn soul -- Doug

7:14

and Nugget. -- heart heart and soul that that Horned

7:16

Frog's team. Yeah. Heart and soul.

7:19

And then his press conference the ginger

7:21

hair with the rose cheese as he's as he's crying

7:23

little bit melted my heart. Yeah. And

7:25

I really hope he has a lot of success, not

7:27

in this next game. But I think Michelin's gonna

7:29

handle that business. And I'm really

7:31

just praying, I really just don't wanna see

7:33

Georgia again, to be honest. Yeah.

7:36

And Ryan Day does have the yips against Michigan

7:39

right now. I think that's an easy dump. Could.

7:42

I mean, he's one oh, he's o and two. He's

7:44

one and two. One and two. The

7:46

last head coach at House State

7:49

Cooper, and he went one, ten, and one

7:51

against Michigan. One, ten, and

7:53

one? Yep. That's me. One and two. I don't know if you could say

7:55

that's the yipsy yet. That is was

7:57

his record in eighty nine when he

7:59

became that coach day. I know that. And I think

8:01

it's ridiculous too that if you were calling for Ryan Day's

8:03

had between eleven and one. Oh,

8:06

yeah. People are

8:08

he's got yeah. He's lost five games. That's crazy.

8:10

Yes. It happens to be against Michigan, and that is

8:12

not okay. Yeah.

8:15

And there's a couple of couple of people clamoring

8:18

about wanting Mike Vrabevelop in Columbus. That

8:20

is a rumor going There is a rumor

8:22

going around. And if Mike Vrabe will comes to head coach

8:24

of a high state. I'm

8:26

scared for the boys in Blue.

8:28

He's he's he

8:31

would he would do a great job. He'd run that college

8:33

football landscape. He would.

8:35

Raska is in that conference now.

8:38

In due time. In due time, boys, lay low. Stay tuned

8:40

till you come up. Yeah. But as far as

8:42

we that's all we're doing right now. As

8:44

far as down until you come up, HJP As

8:46

far as the college football playoff goes, public

8:48

enemy number one is Georgia. Yeah.

8:52

Yeah. Yeah. Georgia. Absolutely. Yeah.

8:54

What how do you guys focus? j JP,

8:56

like, how how do you your South Carolina boy?

8:58

Being fans of the SCC see, how do you

9:00

guys feel hearing all of

9:02

the we need the big takeaway,

9:04

and we refer all each other schools. Like, I just

9:06

wanna hear what you guys perspective. because I see them all

9:09

out there, and I would like to take head

9:11

on and address it as well as I can. I

9:13

just think it sounds corny. Mhmm. Especially,

9:16

like, Michigan and Ohio State, I

9:18

can't imagine any FCC. It's

9:20

like if Auburn was playing in the

9:22

in the National Championship, Alabama fans are

9:24

not gonna be like, we gotta arrive with Auburn. It's

9:27

just like it's just different

9:29

in the SEC and it's just kind of you

9:32

guys are sounding like little kids. You guys.

9:34

Hang on. I'm not hearing for it. You did go side

9:36

with me.

9:37

Yeah. Well, like, there you go. That

9:39

was, like, directly at me, but there is you

9:41

are with me. You know? Well yeah.

9:43

I'm with you because I'm on again, I'm on coattails. There's

9:45

not, like, there's more for there's

9:48

more damage that could be done to you -- Yeah.

9:50

-- with the Michigan or housekeeping thing, then there could

9:52

be done to me. Like, everybody knows, like,

9:54

look at fucking will again. finding

9:56

a win wherever you can get a win, wherever. But

9:59

you're in a Lyft forever. Yeah. You're in a Lyft

10:01

forever. Why do you feel? I just

10:03

I wanna know why you don't wanna play Georgia

10:05

if you wanna to claim

10:08

dominance. National

10:09

championship claims dominance. That's just

10:11

for sure. Don't ask how to ask how many.

10:13

And I'm just thinking That's fine. -- the path of least resistance

10:16

-- It just goes without Georgia in it. -- I think

10:18

it just sounds scared. Listen, I'm not playing the game.

10:20

He already said, I'm scared of Georgia. He said he

10:22

Damn. Personally, I'm like, damn. The boys kinda

10:24

rock. Now Georgia's not as good as they were last year, and

10:26

Michigan's better than they were last that's the reason why

10:28

I think Even to the scale, but I think from a talent

10:30

standpoint, I said this about a house state. I think

10:32

a house state technically has more talent in

10:35

Columbus than they do in Ann Arbor. But

10:38

coaching. So you wouldn't wanna, like, get back

10:40

at them. You would want, like, the easy way around it.

10:42

I I think a national championship's gonna feel great

10:44

no matter what. gonna feel great no matter

10:46

what. Go horned frogs. That's it. That's it.

10:49

Buddy, that that is a sheep fucking

10:51

move, dude. You today hang on. You just

10:53

you wanna pass the police Yeah.

10:55

You just said that and then you just said sheep.

10:58

Yeah. I fucking did.

11:00

I really listen. The Horned Frogs

11:02

will get beat. I believe that in my heart. And whenever the I

11:04

don't know what the spread's gonna be, but they

11:07

probably covered that too. I think

11:09

I personally would not mind Seeing

11:11

that match up again. Georgia, Michigan because

11:13

you do get there. You do you do get

11:15

to, like, get back. They are the two best teams

11:17

in in the -- Chris the model. -- boys tuck their

11:19

tail and ran, like, Even though you get

11:22

another you they did. They I mean, they weren't aware

11:24

they didn't know last year and the cops weren't ready. I don't

11:26

know if they took their tail and ran. Like, the things weren't ready.

11:28

And then just taking a beating. Like, they they had to sit

11:30

there and watch this. They just got posted on top of.

11:32

They didn't watch. Like, no, you can't run. You

11:34

gotta sit here and take this. Like, that's what happened

11:36

last year. That's football. What you mean is You

11:39

can't go, like, in the third and go, hey, boys. We're just done

11:41

here, and you gotta take it. That's Take took

11:43

it. I understand that. But what did we talk to with

11:45

Kirby? I know, but that's what that right

11:47

there, that loss. that sticks with

11:49

you. That's what motivates you the entire off season

11:51

at the get back where you are. And now you got a potential

11:53

shot. Either one is gonna be good for Michigan.

11:56

But again, you you beat you beat a hostage

11:58

by thirty. Mhmm. By hour twenty something, whatever

12:00

it was. You you

12:02

mop them, dude. If you could

12:05

get George again, bro, and

12:07

write that wrong from last year, like, you

12:09

gotta be salivating little bit. think if you're one

12:11

of the boys, now I under I understand. You're We're

12:14

talking we're I'm talking about if you're the boys. Like, if

12:16

you're in those four walls, you're almost like, you

12:18

still want Georgia Wayne because you're like, we gotta fucking

12:20

we gotta come correct. Like, we gotta see them

12:23

again. I I agree with

12:25

what you're saying, but you're looking at from like a you're playing

12:27

in game standpoint. I'm looking at it.

12:29

From the outside, I'm looking at it as a fan. As

12:31

a fan, I'm like, what is the best easiest

12:33

way for Michigan to win this game for the less stressed, least

12:36

amount of stress. Yeah. on the fan watching. Yeah.

12:38

And if I see Sterling Green versus Amazing

12:40

Blue in the National Championshipship, to me,

12:42

I'm feeling real comfortable because I I believe

12:44

Ryan Day has got the gift. they figured out the formula

12:46

to beat Ohio State. I really do.

12:48

And I know that's like, alright. We know the

12:50

game plan there. Georgia's got a hell of a

12:52

lot of talent. They ragged all Tennessee.

12:55

They've been ragged all everybody's different Missouri.

12:58

No. You're not. I guess, I'm just saying, like,

13:00

they take they've gone against They've gone

13:02

against a harder schedule and have done

13:05

very well with that schedule. Yeah. So for me,

13:07

I'm like, let's just get this nati. Like, what

13:09

Shane Gilles say? They haven't won anything since Hitler

13:11

was alive. they won half the national

13:13

titles in Taylor's possession. Yeah. And trust

13:15

me, Shane texted me, like, during

13:17

the Ohio State Games talking shit text me yesterday

13:20

about how Fili's beating the shit on the Titans.

13:22

Like, I'm not gonna ragged all my shame

13:24

for, like, couple of weeks. And I'm, like,

13:27

this is just it's just I don't know why he's so about

13:29

another day, either. He went to West Point or whatever the fuck

13:31

he went to. Shout out the shoes. I actually love the shoes,

13:33

but we're talking about football right now. Yeah. You know?

13:35

He loves ball. He loves ball. He loves

13:37

ball. He loves ball. But to answer your

13:39

question, JP, or to well, not to answer your question,

13:41

to answer your statement on its corny.

13:44

that you guys root for. The

13:47

the the big picture he

13:49

said corny. The big picture of the entire

13:51

thing. This is what I was trying to play the big

13:53

f two. Like, do

13:56

you want to feel like your ass wouldn't from Michigan

13:58

was at least respected? Because if Michigan skin

14:00

goes in there and gets embarrassed in the college

14:02

football playoff game. And our conference looks

14:04

just hell of a week, dude. Like, oh, I'll

14:06

stay we look weak and you just got dusted

14:08

by Michigan. Like, you have zero respect.

14:11

You can't hang your hat on nothing. The way the SEC

14:13

has dominated the college football landscape, there's

14:15

so many rivalries. Like, you get to say FCC

14:18

football's different because they've created

14:20

it to be such a thing. Mhmm. Now the band almost got

14:22

in by just hey, we're Alabama. Like, you guys need Yeah.

14:24

They didn't they was out there doing that shit. Like, he was

14:26

just going on a meeting tour. Like, they almost got in

14:28

just because they're Alabama. Like, that's respect

14:30

to the SEC. for us to have any

14:33

type of validation or for us to have any

14:35

type of competition with the SEC or to

14:37

be in that national, like,

14:39

just, hey, the big ten is the best conference.

14:41

you have to win a national title. Like, you gotta get

14:44

the college trophy in the Big Ten

14:46

championship long game. To do that, you're

14:48

gonna need you're gonna have to back the

14:50

team that represents the big ten. Now that there's

14:53

two in there, the entirety of the big ten

14:55

should be rooting for Oahu State, Michigan. all

14:57

until we get the trophy in. Once you

14:59

can create that a little bit and start to have momentum

15:01

and winning, then you can start to say fuck everybody

15:03

else because up to their thinking like, damn. Like,

15:06

I think I would roof rival, but I would be

15:08

like, that was suck if Wisconsin. I

15:11

want my nightmares forever. Or I was in the

15:13

nanny trying to win, but I would want them to win because

15:15

If I get beat, I want whoever I'm getting

15:18

beat by to beat the fucking best. So

15:20

that way, at least you can be like, oh, I lost the

15:22

fucking best best player, the best talent.

15:24

And until we get that big ten until

15:26

we get that naddy in the big ten,

15:28

it's not gonna be that way. So

15:31

for us to get it, we need fucking everybody.

15:33

We need continuity. We need unity.

15:35

All the big ten, wrapping the big

15:37

ten schools to bring than

15:39

that. It's just like a Game of Thrones, boys

15:42

JB you have watched Game of Thrones. Who's

15:44

the enemy in Game of Thrones? At first, they're

15:46

all enemies. They're all fighting over the throne. They're all

15:48

for that kingdom, that cheer, that seat. We're gonna be the

15:50

fucking king, but there's an enemy. The

15:53

White Walkers. The White Walkers

15:55

are the SEC. that's a tip of the cap

15:57

to you guys. That's fucking respect. You

15:59

guys

15:59

are the White Walkers. What

16:01

did the king what did seven kingdoms have

16:03

to do to defeat the White Walkers? They all had

16:05

to stop all their dumb bitch ass bickering rivalries

16:08

that they got going their their little agendas and plots

16:10

of chess. They didn't put their swords on their head to come

16:12

together to defeat a common enemy.

16:15

What's

16:15

the quote? The enemy of my enemy is my friend.

16:17

Yes.

16:18

And that and that is what we

16:20

are facing right now as a

16:22

big ten conference. The

16:24

White Walkers, the SEC, is the enemy. We

16:26

gotta get them out. We gotta bring a national

16:28

title home to the Big Ten Shaping. Once that

16:30

comes into bay ten, then we can now go

16:32

back to our respective spots. start playing

16:34

chess and then go at it. You guys have the

16:36

luxury. We'll say, you guys have the luxury of hating

16:38

each other because you the SCC Conference

16:40

is that good. SCC wins best championships all

16:42

the time. Bay Ten gets it. Oh,

16:45

we're not a payment. They both have national titles

16:47

within the last, like, two decades. Fuck in

16:49

South Carolina ended this year, like, there's articles

16:51

written all. They're the they're the sneaky best team

16:53

by the end of the year. Tennessee's back in it. Like,

16:56

everybody in the SEC decides like Vanderbilt built

16:58

in fucking Azu and shit no disrespect to the boys

17:00

and A and M. They're not really they're sort of.

17:02

But everybody else, like, they

17:04

got like a fucking shot.

17:06

They got

17:06

a shot. We don't we have like a few we we

17:08

have a few teams, and we need those few teams to be

17:11

the fucking top. Mhmm. The

17:13

top because when Michigan gets the national title this

17:15

year, larger

17:17

calendars, boy, September thirtieth next year,

17:19

like, we will be going after

17:21

the national champions. And that's where

17:23

rivalries become greater. After

17:26

hearing your explanation, I'd like to retract

17:28

my statement. I haven't don't know. No.

17:30

You got it. I would never do it, but

17:32

I respect where you're coming from. Oh, I thought you're

17:34

about to hit me with something I did not see coming

17:36

from. again. You both kinda,

17:38

like, nodded. He goes, oh, you're not

17:40

18:40

back to the episode. What's that?

18:42

I I something I didn't really think about

18:44

until this weekend was that in

18:46

the big ten, they need to separate,

18:49

is

18:49

it the west or the east, whatever side that

18:51

has Michigan,

18:52

Ohio State, Michigan State,

18:54

That's

18:54

the east. Okay. Head of state also,

18:56

isn't that? Right. So they got an insane

18:58

call. I didn't wanna figure that out. I

19:00

like We're twenty twenty four. Where our record is?

19:02

But we're sure. But what got some ground. know

19:05

what side USC and UCLA's are

19:07

probably in the west. Well, they probably

19:09

mail the west eastern coast. But I think in twenty twenty four, when

19:11

they come in, they're gonna get rid of gonna go

19:13

back to kinda when we played, where it's just like, hey.

19:15

Open range. Yeah. Open range kinda mentality

19:17

because then the college football playoff is gonna go to

19:19

twelve games as well. Right. So, like, that whole

19:21

division stuff, it might not It might

19:23

not age very well in that type of situation. Yeah.

19:26

But that'll be good when the it goes to twelve,

19:28

then it's like, we're not doing

19:30

all this stuff. We're sitting here. We're no longer doing that because

19:32

now there's forty teams in the Bay Area There's

19:34

twelve teams I can get in. Yeah. It would literally be a

19:36

host state, Michigan, and Penn State in this

19:38

thing right now. Now at that point, you got twelve

19:40

we can all sit back and go, hey, everyone good luck. We

19:43

gotta fight our own battles now. Yeah. You

19:44

know, the projected,

19:47

like, twelve team that they did for this

19:49

year, it looks Sick. Right.

19:51

It looks awesome. It could be anyone's game. Like

19:53

an off year like Alabama had. Like,

19:55

they could just go and win it because they're Alabama.

19:58

Tennessee. could have been in there. And who

20:00

knows what would happen to reimagine them in Georgia?

20:03

It it would be twelve twelve a twelve game

20:05

playoff is gonna be outstanding. It's really

20:08

gonna be cool. can't wait to see it. It is gonna

20:10

be fun. Going back to the

20:12

president,

20:13

Michigan needs to fucking take this thing home.

20:15

We

20:15

need it. Yeah. You guys got game

20:17

won against TCU. TCU can be tough, man.

20:19

Who knows? You never know. guess No. I think you

20:21

can be a game. I'm not the answer.

20:24

Who knows what's gonna happen? You were just I

20:26

mean, Georgia's fucking tough. Georgia's

20:29

Georgia's public enemy number one. We've already said

20:31

that. They are Oh, how is fucking good. Mitch,

20:33

if you're a real estate, it's

20:35

gotta feel like those boys gotta be just

20:37

excited they're fucking getting in it because

20:40

they have such a bad taste in their mouth getting

20:42

getting dumped by mesh in that they're like, we got we

20:44

got to beat Georgia because in there, Mike, Michigan's

20:46

gonna beat TCU and they're like, we fucking got

20:48

it. It's the same thing on the whole

20:50

Michigan want to pro play Georgia again. Like, we

20:52

gotta get They want Georgia. I know that Michigan wants

20:55

Georgia.

20:56

Yeah. Mhmm. They But I in

20:58

Hyster's getting their best water heater back,

21:00

Jackson Smith, and Jigba. So, I mean,

21:03

he was out. He's been out January all season.

21:05

So, like, he's gonna help a little bit. He's

21:07

he had, like, three hundred yards in the rose ball last year.

21:10

He's really, really good. I'm not sure

21:12

if he's gonna be able to help or high like, high

21:14

state all that much. Like, I'm as a high state fan,

21:16

I'm nervous going in Georgia. I wanted

21:18

play Michigan again because of,

21:21

like, the rivalry and everything would be super cool to be

21:23

in playoff. But

21:24

Like, it's it's

21:26

an uphill battle for on our state to go against

21:28

Georgia. should be, though. I mean, they should not help out if everybody

21:30

goes against Georgia. USC laws,

21:33

like, What a fucking a bunch of frauds.

21:35

A bunch of fucking frauds you guys

21:37

I can't get like I get really

21:40

working up over it because you're like, how in the fuck

21:42

Like, you lost or you saw the first game. You're trying to

21:44

get your get we're like, we're gonna get these boys back. You

21:46

get a neutral site. And then you lose to them.

21:48

How bad did they lose by thirty? Bro.

21:52

Yeah. But it was close in the first half. look at their

21:54

up. Their up. They ended up eleven

21:56

and two after probably the last decade

21:58

for USC. Like, they're, you know,

21:59

they're

22:00

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I get pissed

22:02

and then I was trying to realize, like, it is only year

22:05

one with Lincoln Riley. Do you do you think

22:07

a hostage should not have gotten in Alabama should have

22:09

gotten? No. There's no part of me that thinks Alabama should

22:11

have gotten. Alabama should have never got in.

22:13

Alright.

22:13

Never. I agree

22:14

with that. I was just asking because there's a lot of

22:16

people out there that thinks Alabama should have been in. A little spark in

22:19

me as the zero part. Alabama

22:21

should have never been in there. When Steven when Steven

22:23

was on that camera, it's all my god. When Steven

22:25

was on that camera, talking about how they should

22:27

basically making the case. Like, he did a

22:29

great job as always. Like, that's what he's supposed

22:31

to do. Right. But I'm like, if this is what Steven's

22:33

doing, like, that's not this isn't the Alabama team

22:36

we know to be in the playoff. Yeah. not get in

22:38

that right. Here's recruiting

22:40

tool. He's a he's a savant. Going going

22:42

back to recruiting too when you're when these other

22:44

baked in teams that are in the national championship, It's

22:47

gonna help everybody because now Nebraska

22:49

and all these other schools get to say, hey, this is the best

22:51

conference. Like, you wanna be in the best conference

22:53

You wanna play the best? You wanna play the best? She goes on the

22:56

schedule now. Yeah. We'll play the best. Exactly. And

22:58

this one's we need it. We also

23:00

don't need it. That's a good point too. Like,

23:02

that's good point. Why we won't continue to just

23:04

get in and why this whole That's

23:07

I mean, that's all brutal. We don't we don't fucking

23:09

want that. Erin just asked if they both go down. Both

23:12

big ten teams go down the playoff. It's like, fuck.

23:14

We're right back to now s t c's got it

23:16

because I don't know if t c u's hanging

23:18

with Georgia. I honestly don't know the

23:20

the team that's best to hang on Georgia

23:22

is Michigan. Yeah. I don't

23:24

know. Don't let that hey. That hasn't happened. Don't let

23:26

that fucking No. But I'll let that play out your game

23:28

going to the right now, and it is

23:30

a nightmare, brother. It's tough.

23:33

We're a baked in podcast right now. Yeah.

23:36

Podcast. Podcast in doesn't happen. That won't happen.

23:38

That won't happen. No bad vibes. No bad vibes.

23:41

Jack, I would love to

23:43

get your comment and thoughts on

23:46

The we both lost the South Carolina

23:48

bowl.

23:49

Is

23:51

that tough?

23:53

I mean, don't know

23:55

if this is, like, a a set up question. Obviously,

23:57

that's tough. It's just

23:59

I was wondering how you're

23:59

doing. I was asking JP. He said, yeah. I'm doing

24:02

great. because Tennessee in the

24:04

last decade has underperformed, killed

24:06

our hopes, ruined my mental

24:08

health, and we had losses

24:11

on the year. We beat Alabama. We

24:13

had four ranked teams. We by far out of

24:16

all the teams remaining. Had the most difficult

24:18

schedule. lost to oh,

24:20

yeah. I actually I did make

24:22

a bet with JP. I gotta wear some South

24:24

Carolina gear, so I

24:26

will honor my my

24:29

bet with him. So Stop to see him.

24:31

I mean, the the photos, I don't know, vastness

24:33

of taking photos. All I know is

24:35

that we're playing on a New

24:38

Year's Day Bowl. I don't go

24:40

fuck if it's the South Carnival. All you

24:42

little, like, you know, the Buffalo

24:44

Wild Wings Bulls and, like, I lost Bullion

24:46

My Plating. Yeah. I'm I'm

24:48

happy with it. But, yeah, the the whole

24:51

we lost the South Carolina Bowl. Don't

24:54

give a fuck. because Tennessee, incredible

24:56

record, incredible season, didn't

24:58

in the way we wanted it to, but I'm

25:00

super happy with our team. We got

25:03

some promise moving forward, and I stand

25:05

with coach Haipel,

25:06

dude, his all time. Yeah. Haipa Hipa,

25:08

ma'am. But it's tough. Hi, pissing man. South

25:11

Carolina really just fucking ruined everything.

25:13

Yeah. They did. I

25:15

was happy that they'd be cleansing because they, you know,

25:17

made our loss seem a little bit better,

25:19

but Yeah.

25:20

At the end of the day, we're playing on New Year's

25:22

Day. It should be acknowledged

25:24

January. Yeah. Playing in January in

25:27

one Bulls. should be a fun game, hopefully

25:29

be clums in.

25:30

Where's that?

25:31

In Miami. What bowl is it? Yeah.

25:34

Bull. That's a solo ball game. I mean, it used to be

25:36

ABCS ball. Right? Yeah. In Tennessee,

25:38

Tennessee fans know more than anything. We are,

25:40

like, a customer going to the music

25:42

They called the music shitty bowl, and we lost to

25:44

Purdue last year in horrible fashion. Big

25:46

ten. In Nashville. So though

25:49

It's it's fun that it's not in Nashville

25:51

this year. So I'm excited. At

25:53

the end of the day, Georgia's gonna wipe

25:56

big ten. And this isn't just coming at y'all,

25:58

but it's Georgia. the Truly.

26:00

I I'll ask I let him let us let him

26:02

speak as truth. I just listened to y'all talking for ten

26:04

minutes about how you're like podcast on our podcast.

26:06

Yeah. and y'all

26:09

joined alliances as the big ten against the

26:11

SEC. SEC come,

26:14

was it January ninth? We'll reign

26:16

supreme as always. That's where

26:18

I stand. It's crazy how people say, like, oh, the FCC

26:20

doesn't do that injectors do the thing that we're doing --

26:22

Yeah. -- or the FCC. No doubt. Like, it happens

26:24

no matter what. Like, I didn't didn't stay in Georgia

26:26

like you are staining your biggest rivals

26:28

though. I'm just saying that the SEC

26:31

at the end of the day, I relax, Will.

26:35

the But

26:36

at the end of the day, I really just want

26:38

I want good football for two more games

26:40

for that playoff. So if that can

26:43

be delivered in any fashion, I'll

26:45

be happy as a fan. So Michigan

26:47

placed TCU in Arizona.

26:49

Yeah. When when was the fan? Are you gonna if

26:51

Remember no. It's January

26:53

one. are you gonna go to the national championship

26:55

in Michigan makes it? I

26:57

think yeah. I I would like to. Yeah. I

26:59

haven't really thought that far ahead. Think of me. Yeah.

27:01

But after the Barstool, Full

27:04

game is two days before that in Arizona.

27:06

They haven't announced that game yet, have

27:08

they? No. It's gonna be Ohio

27:11

and Wyoming. Yeah.

27:14

I

27:14

think big cat's jumping out of a plane.

27:16

No.

27:17

He's not in parachuting. Yeah.

27:19

interesting

27:19

than actually the I

27:21

am not. No. He's not. There was

27:24

there were there were

27:26

whispers

27:26

of that happening. Could you imagine if that

27:28

didn't go well?

27:29

I think he'd be going out

27:31

the way he wanted to go out the way he didn't.

27:34

No question. to do to be the Internet

27:37

in that situation. Is

27:39

he too heavy to you can only do, like, two

27:41

fifty pounds. You can only be

27:43

two fifty two fifty. No. I'm not

27:45

that nice. This is this is perfectly the big cat.

27:47

he wears the spanks. If he wears the he wears

27:49

a full. What do you mean?

27:52

Oh, no. You're zebra. Little did

27:55

it on the yack. He showed it. He's been wearing the Julien's

27:57

on him. He did it when we weren't there.

27:59

He has talked about it on He talks about it a lot.

28:01

Yeah. I know. So But you you need to know with

28:03

me. you need to not do that. Oh, no. You need

28:05

to not do that. Okay. Good luck out there, man.

28:08

I mean, he's gotta be under two fifty, I think, to

28:10

jump out of a plane. First question was is he too

28:12

heavy? And that's open. That's a wall. I am

28:14

too heavy to jump out of a plane.

28:16

You're six seven.

28:18

Big cat's not short. It's

28:20

it's harder than you. It's fair, bro.

28:22

saw it than you. Where I'm just saying, like

28:25

It says tandem tandem like when

28:27

you're attached to somebody, which you would have to do unless

28:29

you does, like, you know, five hundred jumps, which

28:31

I'm assuming he's not you the max

28:33

is two hundred and thirty pound. This big ass is

28:35

not jumping in. Whoa.

28:39

Dude, don't be fooled me. Don't

28:41

be that way, dude. He's not born. I fucking

28:44

love big cat. Big cat. I love your death, buddy. But,

28:46

like, I also want you to live forever. don't

28:48

want him to die. Damn it.

28:51

J. P. Fuck you. Yeah. Don't

28:54

28:59

29:01

Dion Standards of the Colorado Buffalo's, dude.

29:04

29:07

No. All the best players from Jackson State.

29:10

State, we see you.

29:12

They had the number one player.

29:14

Number one high school player go there. Yeah. Well, he's a

29:16

he's like a kid right now. He's a freshman. He's

29:19

got a transfer to Buffalo. Yeah. That doesn't

29:21

just turn a one and eleven football team

29:23

into, like,

29:24

national dominance. I'm just

29:26

saying, I'm I'm worried. I mean,

29:28

I need Nebraska to be four-zero going

29:30

against Michigan. Need them. Oh, brother.

29:33

Don't you worry? We're taking

29:35

care of everything in house right now. Okay.

29:37

I listen, I hope Matt Roll has a lot of success. I hope I

29:40

hope he kills it. We know his track record. It takes a few

29:42

years. So I just hope

29:44

he can get these four games in. and

29:46

then take

29:47

that one. It's a different if it's it's a different

29:49

style now too. Like, it's a it's a prime example with

29:51

with coach Prime. Leave in Jackson

29:53

State He's got a lot of big time recruits like

29:56

taking to the Internet, trying to ever

29:58

this whole portal thing is just about to

30:00

be a free agent frenzy. Yeah. Not

30:02

even like, worse. Like, it's

30:04

not like the NFL's bad, but this is this is

30:06

gonna be much more than the NFL for agency.

30:09

Like, here maybe more because there's more there's more players

30:11

and there's more schools. But, like, legit,

30:13

how long is the NFL? Let me give you an example.

30:15

Okay. I'll finish my little.

30:18

So I don't fully understand

30:21

how, like, all the portal dates and everything work,

30:23

but

30:23

let's just say you are the

30:26

prominent left tackle at Michigan like

30:28

you were in college. You would

30:30

have all American year and say you're returning

30:32

for your senior year.

30:33

You it would be in your

30:36

Best interest.

30:38

Even though you're gonna play for Michigan as your senior

30:40

year, it would still be in your best interest to hit

30:42

the portal to leverage NIL

30:44

deals and money to go somewhere. Yeah.

30:47

So even players that are gonna say, like,

30:49

the portal's gonna be insane coming

30:51

up. Yeah. You know what I mean? So you're saying

30:53

Nebraska has that. Yeah. I'm I'm saying

30:55

it it could it could we could be on faster

30:58

track for maybe rule doesn't need three

31:00

years. obviously like that's just painting expectation

31:02

putting expectation on them. But you

31:04

can go after guys and target guys now from

31:06

other schools. You're not just looking at in house being

31:08

like, like Dion's coming in, like, he feels confident.

31:11

He should feel confident. Like, I think he's

31:13

a stud. He seems like a stud leader.

31:15

I enjoy that he puts everything

31:17

in the public eye. for

31:19

everybody to kinda walk you hear all the speeches.

31:22

He talks to the team. Like, he seems like a

31:24

good leader and a good football coach and guys wanna play

31:26

for him. That's the biggest thing. He can walk in and

31:28

talk to those do this that way because at the end

31:30

of the day, you're that's a one in eleven

31:32

program you're sitting there talking to. So you wanna you wanna

31:34

say whatever you're saying, I know haven't gotten to his his

31:36

team meeting speech. But he's talking to these guys

31:39

I'm bringing my own luggage. Like, there's your quarterback right

31:41

there. He's bringing other players. And everybody

31:43

thinks that's a little bit of like, hey, that's a little

31:45

OD. Like, here's gonna come in and say, these

31:47

guys are getting spotty, yada, yada. At the end of

31:49

the day, you wanna have such a first

31:51

impression of a of like a team

31:53

meeting like that. to weed out people who don't wanna

31:55

be there because you're looking at a one on eleven program.

31:58

And you asked if if we're nervous of

31:59

being Nebraska, it's like, I mean, no.

32:02

Unless he just comes out swinging, I think

32:04

there's probably gonna be a learning curve going from HPCUs

32:06

to the pack twelve. You know what I mean? I hope

32:08

you're right. But I do think guys are gonna flock to

32:11

wanna play through. I yeah. I I

32:13

do. I think that too. I think guys are gonna wanna from.

32:15

So when you look at that transfer portal, that you were

32:17

just saying, those guys are gonna look at Buffalo.

32:19

It's beautiful place. It's Dion Sanders.

32:21

there you go fucking I was like in New York too.

32:23

I was like Buffalo Buffalo. Oh, he's talking about

32:26

he's talking about the Buffalo's. The Buffalo's. Yeah.

32:28

You got those guys. They're gonna if you're

32:30

looking at that, both programs that are

32:32

down on their luck right now, people

32:34

are probably gonna swing more towards Colorado

32:37

because Deon Sanders. That's

32:39

why. Yeah. That's why I had that comment. I was like,

32:41

don't you kinda want Deon? because he's from a recruiting standpoint,

32:43

he can get guys I think that rule is gonna be was

32:45

on my list. Extremely. Yeah. I know. Yeah.

32:47

It was on my list. I think he would have been as touched

32:49

on my list. I

32:52

think the one thing that What was this? Here is I think

32:54

he's on my list. think one thing that Dion

32:56

has now being at a Division

32:58

one school

33:00

recruits or transfer portal from

33:02

other big schools are gonna be more

33:04

likely to go there than -- Right. -- downgrade,

33:07

not that going

33:08

to an HPC use a downgrade, but

33:10

very much And it it is down, but Yes. And

33:12

it's technically in line to, like Yeah. Yeah.

33:15

Yeah. Yeah. I mean, my guys is a bus HPC

33:17

user. Right. Yeah. Will

33:20

said that.

33:20

But

33:21

I just think there's an advantage there,

33:23

same that Matt Ruehl have.

33:25

the But

33:26

Dion's got a different

33:28

presence, I think. Yeah. He's got a lot of

33:30

He's got yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Like, you're gonna

33:32

you're gonna get boost in status just

33:34

neighboring up with the onstand. Do you have the you

33:37

wanna be running back hit the portal, tweeted

33:39

it, Dion. It was like, you got room for me.

33:41

I I did see that. You're gonna get guys with

33:43

talent to

33:44

go there. Like, this could be one of the fastest turnarounds

33:47

we've ever seen. Yeah.

33:49

Potentially that's He's had a relevance pool

33:52

that historically has had some success. I

33:55

need to get on the phone with coach rule.

33:58

Nebraska's best bet to get people

34:00

to Lincoln is fat

34:02

money in the NIL deals. Yeah. You need

34:05

to be paying people more than any other school. I have to be

34:07

doing some men home visits. Hey,

34:08

brother.

34:10

You're not right.

34:12

Well, so it's really cute. Yeah.

34:15

Yeah. Well, what's

34:17

your purpose? Hey. you see the followers between

34:19

us and Boston and everybody? You you

34:21

want to shout you out?

34:22

I

34:23

think it's gonna be I hope I hope I

34:25

hope I hope to God in Nebraska wins that first

34:27

game. hope you guys do.

34:30

The min alright. Well, our first game, Week zero, is

34:32

against Minnesota, home game.

34:35

Yeah.

34:37

Oh, yeah. We need all of Nebraska

34:39

at Boulder for Dion's first home game. Mhmm.

34:42

Did you see the AD? Yeah. AD?

34:44

Yeah. That's conference. He was basically begging the

34:46

fans. Saying, please don't sell your tickets. Like, I

34:48

don't wanna see red. Brother, you're seeing red.

34:50

Yeah. He doesn't know how to battle people.

34:52

Yeah. The basket strap was like fucking crazy. We

34:55

have people living in cuddle Colorado for

34:57

decades. Like, there's hunker trap there's already

34:59

been playing it in Colorado. Move there just for that

35:01

game. They bought houses. Yeah. This is

35:03

this has been premeditated. You will be seeing a red

35:05

brother, and Dion will be getting that ass

35:07

whipped. And we will be there

35:10

supporting the boys. Willie? I'll

35:12

be there supporting the boys arm and arm.

35:14

Yeah. Supporting their motherfuckers do because

35:17

we are We're gonna be one and coming out

35:19

of Minnesota, and I know I'm talking out of my ass right

35:21

now. I'm doing the thing that everybody does not want me to

35:23

do. But

35:23

the

35:25

I Minnesota

35:26

is also a team. He can't really sleep on either. He can't

35:28

sleep on him. But no. That's I think that's week

35:30

zero. I believe we are home. I believe

35:32

it's a home game. Home opener there.

35:35

Oh, Colorado.

35:37

There. No.

35:38

You're in Colorado. Yeah. I'm

35:40

going. But you're going to Minnesota

35:42

and Colorado? Yes. is the bus

35:45

going too? It's just a wheelchair. It's a wheelchair

35:47

going highly. Yeah. Like, I know I have

35:49

to do my part and play my role. Like, I

35:51

I I've got to help That's

35:53

my way of helping. I love that. You know what I mean? Then I'm

35:55

gonna take a week off. I'm gonna take a little break.

35:57

I might have something else to do with Boston, and then we're

35:59

gonna be

35:59

there from Michigan. I'm talking three of the

36:02

first four games. You're gonna have full support from

36:04

the boy. I'll

36:05

be doing my part, like, just give me the title.

36:07

Like, What's the what was Killeprestle

36:09

in North Carolina?

36:10

The morale

36:13

coach. I'll be the morale coach.

36:16

I'll be the morale coach for the Oscars. I'm

36:19

not twelve o'clock in your mind. Somehow,

36:21

every single week you found a way to win. I'm

36:23

not twelve o'clock yet because again, I don't

36:25

wanna put that kind of pressure on the board. No. I'm talking

36:27

about throughout this season that just happened.

36:29

You found a silver lining and everything. Oh,

36:32

yeah. I'm always gonna figure out. I'm always gonna

36:34

spin a win somehow. You know, I mean, like, a juicy jerry

36:36

with the sun. fucking figure that

36:38

shit out win somehow. Yeah, dude. I think

36:40

it's gonna be III wanna go to that game.

36:42

I'm coming with you. Good. I I need you. I

36:44

like you. I didn't know you're like, oh, are we gone

36:47

36:49

busting's going? I don't know about I don't know about Nebraska

36:51

Minnesota. Like, I'll let you have that one.

36:53

I'll let you go to that one by yourself like good luck

36:55

buddy, but like Colorado. I'll be in Boulder

36:58

37:00

welcome to join me. Like, I'll fucking We'll link

37:02

37:07

you know, it's just business. It's

37:09

just business. Yeah. That would be that

37:11

would be great. Wouldn't that be wild? that'd be crazy.

37:13

Now the game the goal would be to interview

37:15

Dion while we're there because Dion, like,

37:18

we're gonna have to I'm gonna have to try

37:20

and get this out a little bit. Yeah. And I get that.

37:23

I'm

37:23

with you. Yeah.

37:24

Well, you you literally just

37:26

said he could pay you off. So I don't know if you're actually with

37:28

you. Yeah. But he hasn't paid me off yet. So we're good. I'm

37:30

with you. unless they don't throw it in the bag, and then I

37:32

can't say you guy, hey, man, I'm with you. Like, are you?

37:35

Right now? Absolutely. I'll let you know. You'll

37:37

know. If I'm not, you will absolutely be aware.

37:40

We should get Matt Ruel and Dion

37:42

before the game. Yeah.

37:43

We could probably swing that I bet.

37:45

Absolutely.

37:49

I gotta send this little video for

37:52

your boys already in their work and in the recruiting game

37:54

a little bit.

37:56

I

37:58

thought you'd love that. You know, we were talking

38:00

about long game, how we've always we were already planted

38:02

in Colorado, like it's inevitable that they're gonna see

38:04

red. We interrupt this episode to bring you

38:53

who else won their little long game? A.

38:56

J. Brown.

39:00

Yeah. My tweet did not go well. A.

39:02

J. got aj essentially,

39:05

he won. AJ got the w. Yeah.

39:08

Like, I think he goes really didn't get

39:10

w. When whatever happened, the eagles also got w

39:12

because they have a j. Yeah. Everything

39:14

that happened between AJ and the Titans

39:16

and the All season, like, during draft night, all

39:18

the articles, like, all the people

39:21

on Twitter going or social media going after

39:23

them, like, just the back and forth the entire thing.

39:26

Like, when you're AJ Brown,

39:28

you

39:30

when

39:30

you're visualizing catches and touchdowns

39:32

and celebrations and everything else,

39:34

like, it couldn't have went any better for him.

39:37

Yesterday. Yeah. The fact that they called that

39:39

one play incomplete, that would have been a touchdown.

39:41

In the very next play, double move for

39:43

a touchdown. I was like, man. he

39:45

was just destined for this. Yeah. because he

39:47

did the little celebration. It's like, that's a good

39:50

celebration. Like, I'm gonna whip your ass. I'm gonna love you after

39:52

words. But, like, once he did the speaking and then the hug, I was

39:54

like, oh, man. then it got called back. I was like,

39:56

oh, he's gonna be sick that they got called back. And

39:58

then they do a double move and then everybody's like,

40:00

OPI. It's like, dude. That's not

40:02

OPI. He broke him off and he was falling and he

40:04

just brand random over on the way

40:06

to the end zone. Yeah. And then he scored

40:08

and then was literally just, like, you you don't

40:10

and then he scored again later in the game. Like,

40:13

those are the those are the small ones?

40:15

Two. He had two touchdowns. One sorry. But one

40:17

was called back. So, yeah, two touchdowns. But

40:19

that's literally, like, you know, when you're when you're

40:22

you're playing like high school born, you're about to play your role in,

40:24

you just visualize you making the best plays and

40:26

everybody singing back all the fucking haters

40:28

this day. Like, I'm about to show out. That

40:30

happens.

40:32

I I feel like he has a calendar

40:34

and he had that day circle. A hundred percent

40:36

was like and he's had it circled since literally

40:38

the day he got traded It was

40:41

a it was a wallpaper on his phone. And

40:43

as a titans man, it's it it

40:45

hurts a lot, but I was also extremely happy

40:47

for him because he's killing it. and

40:49

he's kinda had a couple, like, three weeks span

40:51

where he was in, like, traditionally being,

40:53

like, the guy on their team, but he's very

40:56

much now solidified back as

40:58

I

40:58

mean, him and him and Davonte Smith.

41:00

Oh my fucking yeah. They have great receiving for

41:03

her. I know. The Eagles are Yeah. They are

41:05

really True.

41:06

Dude,

41:09

yeah, their penalties were terrible. They had someone

41:12

they literally tried to keep the titans in that game.

41:14

and I just didn't go well. For me, sitting there

41:17

still part of the team. Yeah. I'm

41:19

like, it's

41:20

it's

41:21

a difficult thing to defend. I think they're gonna

41:23

find it. it for you watching the game now,

41:25

like, few weeks out, just watching

41:28

the season unfold. It's

41:31

you're not really, like, when you're when when you're on IR,

41:33

you're not really around the team. Like, you go in, you

41:35

do treatment, but you're doing treatment when everyone's in meetings.

41:37

Like, the only time I see boys is, like, today

41:39

and Tuesdays. Yeah. and that's if they come

41:42

in an off day.

41:43

So it's

41:44

hardly I wouldn't watch the film with the online today

41:46

and I was, like, talking to Dennis Daily about a couple

41:48

of things you could do differently or, like, help them out with some

41:51

off and and Nick. But,

41:53

like, for real, like, the father when

41:55

you're on IR and this happened in twenty twenty, the father you're

41:57

removed from it, the more you feel like you're less a part of it.

41:59

Yeah. You know? And it is just the reality.

42:02

I like people on social media coming

42:04

at me being like, why aren't you in the sidelines? Well, that's just

42:06

a that's a team rule. Otherwise, I'll be in the sidelines

42:08

for every game. Absolutely. Yeah.

42:10

And you go watch that. It's like when

42:12

when Philly

42:13

on that first drive. And when

42:15

you saying, like, no IR guys are alone. No

42:18

IR guys are alone sideline. Yes. Otherwise,

42:20

I would literally travel to games. That would be I would

42:22

love that. But when do you

42:24

watch to fill it off Eagles on offense

42:26

travel? Like, it looked so easy for

42:28

them to go and score on that first drive. If

42:30

it you're like, damn, like, hope

42:32

the boys are ready. And then Derek held the only

42:34

thirty yards total. Fuck man.

42:36

It's just it's hard it's hard to see and you can't

42:38

help when you're watching the game being like damn, wonder

42:41

you you play the ego game in your head, like, if I was

42:43

out there, I could help more. If I'd done x, y, and

42:45

z, but it's just you know, if

42:47

I was out there, it probably wouldn't be would have been a whole

42:49

lot different based on how the day was going for everybody.

42:52

Trailing getting hurt. Someone told

42:54

me, oh, we might have to pull this up fucking yeah.

42:56

What if that was the same, bro. And

42:58

I was just saying I someone told me that

43:01

his stats at this point in the year are,

43:03

like, very was that you, Garrett? You said that to me?

43:05

someone said to me that they're very similar to AJ

43:07

Brown, which is awesome. Yeah. Yeah. Their

43:10

first year is rookie because AJ wasn't as

43:12

explosive in the beginning of the year as he was. later in

43:14

the year. And trailer seems like he's coming along. Well,

43:16

he seems like he's really that because there's so

43:18

much of a comparison since There

43:20

there has to be yeah. And they drive traded

43:22

blah, blah, blah, and then yeah. That's that's

43:24

a crazy deal, you know. Eagles are tough, man.

43:27

Like, we're talking about the Monty Smith and

43:29

AJ and they're passing exactly their dude there's something

43:31

else. but just a week or two ago, they rushed

43:33

for, like, what's it in the

43:35

yard? Like, three hundred and something

43:37

in the yard after line is elite. Is there office

43:39

I'm still here to leave? I mean, if they're and hold

43:42

the king to thirty yards. Yeah. Ryan

43:44

completed, like, eleven passes. Like, their

43:47

defense is fucking good. They're they're pressuring

43:49

quarterback and getting sacks

43:52

without blitzing. Yeah. And that's

43:54

when you know your fucking dominant. because

43:56

you can drop seven guys in the coverage, seven

43:58

eight guys in the coverage. Yeah. You rush

44:00

four and get home that fast. That's that's

44:02

tough. No dude on such shit, but they

44:04

have no dues that are like like a Von Miller type

44:06

guy. Like Fletcher Cox is there, but Fletcher Cox is getting

44:08

old. Like, he he is he still a

44:10

stud like you saw him, she's done channel -- Mhmm. -- on

44:12

that third and three. And it ended up being what? Fourth and

44:15

five. He gotta stack on that play. He's still

44:17

a stud, but there's really they

44:19

just got dudes that have juice --

44:21

Yeah. -- that have juice in our fucking going right now.

44:23

Yeah. On the wrong one, you got a team who like,

44:26

they all believe in each other themselves,

44:28

the locker I mean, look here that they're making.

44:30

It's like, it's all the vibes

44:32

are up. Like, that one game earlier in the year and they're

44:35

all riding the bike right afterwards to get ready for the Thursday

44:37

night game and just having fun. Like, they

44:40

they're one of those teams that are just fucking rolling

44:42

and they're gonna be tough to beat. And be on another team,

44:44

like, I feel like titans were this way a couple years ago? Will

44:46

you, like, look at them on the sound like they have a good locker

44:48

room? Like, you look at the titans be like, hey, they look

44:50

like to have fun. They all like each other. they're having

44:52

a good time. Mhmm. When I was watching that game yesterday,

44:55

it really seemed like, man, the Eagles probably

44:57

have a fire locker room. They have a bunch of dudes

44:59

that just love each other. Yeah. And they dropped

45:01

that.

45:02

I think Jason Kelsey is a he

45:04

just seems like an outstanding leader. Mhmm. He

45:06

seems like that fucking dude.

45:09

Yeah. Jalen's and good for Jalen too.

45:11

All he had all the shit he had to go through in college

45:14

and

45:15

beast. He's a fucking beast.

45:17

And did it the right way in college too, like, he

45:19

got bashed, was very

45:22

humble about it, like supportive of it was

45:24

two. Right? Mhmm. Support of a two has

45:26

stayed for a and then

45:29

and then transferred and then

45:31

took control almost like a leader on that team in Oklahoma.

45:34

In such a short time too, it was hard to do over

45:36

time. And there are couple things to

45:38

where he would they somebody would post for

45:40

him, him working out right after the game, and which

45:42

I thought was funny, left out at the time.

45:45

But, no, he's he's done

45:47

it. I feel like you gotta be happy for him. You gotta be happy for

45:49

AJ too, dude. Like, it sucks, like, as a as a Tennessee

45:51

Titan and as a fan watching, that

45:54

shit sucked yesterday. But

45:56

AJ, like, being

45:57

a player in the NFL, you want everybody to get

45:59

paid and have success,

45:59

and it seems like AJ, it

46:01

all worked out for him that way. You wish you was

46:03

with the titans. I mean, you do. And it was probably

46:05

coming John's head right now hindsight's twenty twenty.

46:08

There's three sides to every story. AJ side, John

46:10

side, and then the truth. Mhmm. because AJ's

46:12

he probably was asking for a lot more. They

46:14

were weren't willing to give what the Eagles were given whatever

46:17

it was. It sucks. And then

46:19

you we always use the Frutel umbrella one

46:21

day. Do you think so? Yeah.

46:23

I do. Right. I hope

46:25

so. I do. think he'll come on, especially

46:27

now. Yeah.

46:28

Especially now. Yeah. He's

46:30

a fucking stud. Yeah. I shot him I shot him

46:32

just the eyes yesterday. He responded, you know,

46:34

in the morning. He was, like, nine the morning. I just shot

46:36

him the eyes. He just responded. It's

46:38

up to day family. That

46:42

was it. Damn. I just chucked off, I was like,

46:44

man, I wonder what's gonna happen today, and then it fucking

46:46

happened. That second After that touchdown,

46:49

not the one that got called back his second touchdown

46:51

that he had. That ball was perfectly placed. Yeah. He

46:53

did not think he was hitting the ball in that player. He just

46:55

kinda looked up and there was. And it was

46:59

Insane. Yeah, bro.

47:01

He's he's a hell of a player. He's hell

47:03

of a player. He's not only that, that

47:05

that the Philly Christmas album.

47:08

I know that paint is funny. That fucking hurts

47:10

me so bad. So two years ago,

47:13

Taylor had an idea for Boston. to

47:17

do a Christmas album. He was like, this

47:19

one, the Barstool fund was big, and he's like, hey, we should

47:21

do a Christmas album. All funds go to the Barstool

47:23

fund. and we should have essentially,

47:26

we should have artists and people that's pretty much

47:28

been on the pod. We just do a Christmas album, sing

47:30

our favorite. No. No. No. No. It was it was get people

47:32

run the league to do it. Right. He's get programmers

47:34

running the lead to do it. That have either been on

47:36

or, like, get a Rogers or I think I brought

47:38

Davonte Adams, like, get a bunch of guys and do

47:41

a Christmas album. and all of it goes to the Barstool

47:43

fund. Yeah. And that was a couple years ago.

47:45

That was you I mean, you were traveling back and

47:47

forth to Arizona. At the end of the day, we

47:50

I we I dropped the ball. And

47:52

I say I because I was like, oh, yeah. We can get

47:54

this done. But there's just there's so many logistics

47:57

to getting it done. However, now that the

47:59

Philly Christmas album dropped. It's dropping

48:01

December twenty third. Put that in our chat. Like,

48:03

I'm gonna hold and combine that too. It's good.

48:06

Hey, got it. These fucking who's a

48:08

yes? I say, I I do.

48:10

He hits that thing. crush it.

48:13

I mean,

48:13

they better write me. It makes me sick.

48:15

Like,

48:15

I was going to do that the idea for the Internet,

48:18

and then the Internet came out to years later. He's like,

48:20

fuck. I

48:20

could have done that. You

48:22

know?

48:23

Well, that's the Italian job,

48:25

man. That fuck you will.

48:29

You know

48:29

what happened? Everybody's got an idea. Yeah.

48:31

I know. I know what you had the idea. You kill

48:33

me. I didn't execute it. So

48:35

I'll take the blame. Listen. Hey,

48:38

dude. It just hurts my it hurts me so bad.

48:40

I'm super happy for those dudes. It seemed like it's gonna be

48:42

awesome. Oh, they they they

48:44

sell out. They're selling out on their their

48:46

job. They didn't do the

48:49

who saves him again? Jordan

48:51

Mylada. He was the one rocking the boy shirt,

48:53

what knee? Yeah. With his He got a light caused

48:55

my cleats. I know. I went I went

48:57

on the the Eagles fucking comments.

49:00

everyone's like, where's this shirt? I was like, hey, then

49:02

I buy out. I'll get that thing. Click the buy out.

49:04

Click the buy out. Dude, that fucking

49:07

I'm there that thing's gonna be a huge I'm stoked

49:09

for them. It's gonna be amazing.

49:13

I know that Philly is a crazy

49:15

fan town. A fucking crazy fan

49:17

town. if you're successful in a failure of

49:19

God, but man, I bet you they turn you

49:22

so fast on a fucking dime.

49:24

On any dime. Speaking

49:27

of turning on a dime, dude,

49:29

what's going

49:29

on with your ten? Do you, like, do you wanna

49:31

talk about your ten or you kinda wanna At

49:34

this point so, like, two weeks it went

49:36

by, it's almost like,

49:40

at the end of the day, here's where it's at.

49:42

Yours

49:42

didn't happen. Yeah.

49:43

I mean, you know, I would like, you know what?

49:45

Everything what if I said on the podcast or

49:47

what if I said public? Because there's been so many conversations

49:50

I don't wanna be redundant. Here's what

49:52

happened in a nutshell.

49:55

We got to and the

49:57

reason I get a little, like, if you're talking about it because

49:59

I'm kinda like who gives a fuck anymore. not

50:01

on, like, not playing, like, I'm still trying to play. Like,

50:03

I'll still play. Yeah. I was just asked to be

50:05

radio silent, but it's like, you know, at at

50:07

this point, it's gone so far. Like, I want to just

50:10

that's the entire point of, like, doing all the stuff we

50:12

do to let people peek behind the curtain. And if there's

50:14

any player out there at the end of the day, like,

50:17

playing nine years and if if guys

50:20

got if we can put guys on game by just giving

50:22

them a peek behind the curtain by talking about all this stuff

50:24

openly, then that's the win in itself too

50:26

because I could say nothing

50:28

could happen, and then everybody's like, well, what ended

50:30

up happening with that whole ordeal? Ultimately,

50:33

we I was in Atlanta.

50:36

We had the contract ready to go.

50:39

Both parties had the amendment

50:41

in a a side contract in place.

50:43

that fully separated me from

50:45

the gambling and the content stuff that

50:48

I was doing. Now two things

50:50

with that. going into it,

50:52

of course, I assumed or we assumed the risk.

50:54

Like, when you talked about it in before the season,

50:56

like, hey, what if you're like, what if you do play this

50:58

year or something like that? It's kinda like, Well,

51:00

I don't think or whatever you play. I

51:03

was like, what if you do play, like, do

51:05

it, like, standing up the game links, you know yada yada

51:07

yada. Yes, I will. realistically,

51:11

it doesn't seem like I will get a

51:13

call to play your team because the case race,

51:15

you're doing all this stuff. I'm out there loud. All

51:17

this just all the stuff with Barstewear and GM's

51:19

nightmare. Yeah. Exactly. For what are

51:21

we doing? A a thirty three year old practice club

51:23

players? What else about the time with the Atlanta FalconZ

51:25

if first? So going into it is like,

51:28

I'm gonna fully lean into the content

51:30

and everything else that I have going on off the field,

51:32

a, because I enjoyed it, it's like, be like,

51:34

if if a team happens to call me towards the end

51:36

of the year, like, I will stay in some sort of shape

51:38

to go do a workout and basically check

51:40

the boxes that we've been checking, and

51:43

you just assume the risk. Like, I'm probably

51:45

playing myself out even if I stand up to Smith the BuzzFeed.

51:47

Who cares? This is the this is the right I'm going

51:49

like this, the transition, beyond football gonna

51:52

pay me more than being in football, and

51:54

I really fucking enjoy it.

51:57

So and then on the on

51:59

the NFL

51:59

side because they're about to come into this

52:02

because they put a halt to and said, hey, this agreement

52:05

is far off. Like, you would be in direct violation

52:07

this will not work for us. Yada yada. This is

52:09

the first was telephone. Here's saying all that stuff.

52:12

And on the end, we're saying that to you. This

52:14

is when we turned it in, hey, be good to go

52:16

here about fifteen, twenty minutes a week. So you and

52:18

the Atlanta falcons turned into the NFL. Yes.

52:20

So New York calls you and said Correct.

52:22

the NFL. Yeah. The league office talks

52:25

to the falcons. It basically

52:27

says, this isn't gonna work. This is this is

52:29

very far off. will we need to do,

52:31

and this wasn't in writing. So this is all

52:33

hearsay. But at that point

52:35

in time, it was seen

52:37

to be I would have to terminate

52:39

All

52:39

agreements with Barstool, I would

52:41

have to divest and pay back compensation

52:43

that I've received thus far off the field.

52:46

And I would have to delete

52:48

all of my content that is out there that

52:50

pertains to gambling. And then

52:53

I could sign me

52:55

and Marshall would then sign an agreement

52:57

with the NFL complying

53:00

that I will not be breaking the rules and violations

53:03

while I'm playing the calling it the year

53:05

ten period. Yeah. When you're here

53:07

when that's hearsay, of course, that's like,

53:09

yo, that's unreasonable as fuck. Yeah. extremely.

53:12

But in from the NFL standpoint, this

53:14

is such a a random weird unique situation

53:16

that, of course, you're gonna default to the number

53:18

one priority is protect the shield. Yeah.

53:21

So it's like, oh, here's a gambling case. Like,

53:23

we're not gonna get this isn't we're

53:25

no one's this is not about to go under

53:27

our nose and us not say anything about it.

53:29

So, of course, whether or not it's an overreaction, when

53:31

that happens, it put everything on pause

53:33

to where it's like, okay, it seems like this isn't gonna

53:36

get sorted out within the next twenty four hours. So

53:38

I drive back home, make thanksgiving, and

53:40

all that stuff -- Yep. -- which was awesome. So

53:42

all the unreasonable ass, like all the hearsay

53:44

on the phone, we're wanting that in writing because

53:47

now we feel I'll

53:49

say I feel as if this

53:51

is an irrational ask to pay back compensation

53:53

to do things. At the end of the day, I'll bend any

53:55

which way to to play

53:58

legally to play football,

54:00

but it's not like I need to we had the bus

54:02

that we've had bus we've been doing the podcast for

54:04

three years now and I've planned in the league. Again,

54:08

I understand the gambling issue. So

54:10

we wanted it in writing, so then we could

54:12

go to the NFLPA because we thought

54:14

the NFLPA could help us or help me out

54:17

a little bit. Did the whole thing, the cryo

54:19

thing on the NFFP, that was kind of like another

54:21

week. All that goes by its holiday weekend.

54:23

What time? Hold on. before you talk about your tweeting

54:25

everything you did, how did the NFLPA

54:28

respond to you before They

54:31

they weren't not the most health helpful. They

54:33

were not the most helpful. We we were working

54:35

with the lawyer from the NFLPA. And

54:38

essentially, he

54:40

was like, let me see your your

54:43

individual agreement. Mhmm. Okay. Yeah. That would

54:45

have to be terminated. Fair. At this point, we

54:47

had already talked to Barstel Barcil's willing

54:49

to do whatever possible. They're like, hey. Yeah.

54:51

We'll terminate this. We're like, whatever you need to

54:53

do, we wanna support you playing football

54:55

if you wanna play football. And so

54:57

he said, you're gonna have to terminate that. And then the

54:59

busting thing, we're trying to ask questions. Right?

55:01

And these are, like, we're getting this is in

55:03

text messaging. It seems like Will needs to

55:06

delete all agreements with Barstel. And

55:08

we're, like, bust with the boys' question mark.

55:10

Yeah. Everything it seems like he shouldn't

55:12

be working with Barstel while playing in the league.

55:14

It's like, okay. That's the irrational

55:16

part. Why? What is the reasoning saying that now?

55:18

Yeah. This is the this is the PA at this point. Yeah. But,

55:20

like, why? What is the reasoning?

55:22

Like, because, like, we need something that

55:24

that shows why it wouldn't happen. There's

55:26

a dozen players at least now that have podcasts

55:29

while playing in the NFL. Yeah. sponsored by production

55:31

companies who sell their ads, who do everything. There

55:33

there's a Patrick Peterson, I think, is with

55:35

CBS Sports. You got new HEIGHTS. They're with Jukes.

55:37

Who knows who owns them? Like, You have so many

55:40

different things going on that players are doing in the league.

55:42

Now it's like, why do I have to terminate the

55:44

busting agreement? And which brings you involved. So

55:46

now there's multiple parties that they're wanting to

55:48

see agreement. So then you gotta go down another

55:50

rabbit hole on like, hey, we need to get permission

55:53

on your end. You your agency has

55:55

to do their due diligence because you're

55:57

their client, and you are their number one priority.

55:59

Doesn't

55:59

matter what I'm doing. It matters what, hey,

56:02

how could this we're a loop and tailor in

56:04

that, like, there's we went down so many paths and

56:06

dead ends. that

56:08

from my seat, I felt like

56:10

the p a wasn't helping me out the way that

56:12

they should be. Right. More of like, hey, Can

56:14

we get actual effort and urgency

56:17

to look at all of this fine print?

56:19

So you can at least tell me reasoning why

56:22

I need to terminate all of these

56:24

things. I understand the gambling. I

56:26

don't understand why you're just saying you

56:28

can't work with It seems like they want

56:30

once you're working with Barstool. It's just, like, well,

56:32

that's obvious. Like, oh, you don't want it's the Barstool

56:35

thing now. So you're just wanting things back and forth.

56:37

Bro, there were so many of knocks that I know I've talked

56:39

to you of update you, I feel like it's

56:41

much a problem. Maybe there's some that I haven't because at this

56:43

point, there's so many redundant conversations happening.

56:46

You go down all these rows and you just come to

56:48

a dead end. And ultimately, people just get

56:50

to where they kinda the CYA, cover your

56:52

ass and commit to where it's like, hey, we think this

56:54

is good, but we can't tell you that nothing won't

56:56

happen, which is like, that's not solid

56:58

enough for me for me to hear, like, what does

57:00

that mean? Right. It's like, you know, if the NFL just

57:02

wakes up, went down the wrong side of the bed and they wanna make

57:04

a deal about this, could they potentially maybe

57:07

somewhere in in this language realm? So you don't

57:09

know. It's got it got so frustrating to

57:11

where it's like we have a Boston agent. We

57:13

have I have an NFL agent, a busted

57:15

agent. The the the Falcon's

57:17

were involved. The Falcon's are kinda like, hey. As long

57:19

as you get all your ducks in order, can make thing

57:21

happen. We're like, still down there. We're supportive. We

57:23

get all the shit you got going on. Then you kinda

57:25

laugh and make a joke. This is hilarious. All for a thirty

57:27

three year old practice club player. Mhmm. But it's like they they

57:29

were in it initially. Then it was like, the

57:31

PA, both

57:32

of my agents.

57:35

Who else? My agent? Yeah. Yeah. Your agency ended

57:37

up being involved. There were so many dead end conversations

57:40

to where the bus an agent,

57:42

he was just like, hey, like, do

57:44

you want me to just call the NFL directly? because

57:47

he's like, hey, there's that I can get to to where

57:49

we know who the person is from the league office,

57:52

the contact. So he calls the NFL

57:54

directly and may have a conversation going

57:56

back and forth to where it's like, hey, you don't need to see

57:59

all the contract agreements that will has going

58:01

on, all the field. All you need to know is

58:03

that we will sign whatever necessary and

58:05

terminate to do whatever makes them legal.

58:08

There's no need to see all the contract negotiated.

58:10

There's no need to all the writing language. There's multiple

58:12

parties involved because there's multiple people involved.

58:14

Like, when it's not just will, there's other factors,

58:17

there's barcels, there's users, there's just so many other

58:19

factors, you don't need to see that stuff. Like, it's kind of like

58:21

a none of your business or need to know we'll give

58:23

you what you need to know on a need to know basis type

58:25

of thing. So they went back and forth on

58:27

figuring out solutions that could happen.

58:30

Now, as we sit here today on Monday,

58:32

over

58:33

the weekend, Boston

58:35

agent gets off the phone with the NFL. Boston

58:37

agent talks with Barstool, goes up

58:39

that ladder because there's obviously more

58:41

involved than just Barstool, like it's Barstool and it's

58:43

Penn National Gaming. So there's intricacies

58:46

in the contract that involves both of them.

58:48

So a barcode can be good, but then they have to go up

58:50

the ladder with PIN -- Mhmm. -- on making sure

58:52

that this is all viable because I'm willing to

58:54

like terminate certain agreements, divesting

58:57

certain compensation to

58:59

play and be eligible for your ten. And

59:01

once that letter gets reviewed and check mark

59:03

by pin, we now hold the letter

59:05

again. We give it to the league as a

59:07

draft as a draft up to make sure

59:09

the league thinks it's compliant with the

59:11

league rules. Then we take the draft back,

59:14

then we pick up the phone, hey, falcons,

59:16

are we still trying to make this happen? If

59:18

the answer is yes, We then take the draft,

59:21

execute it as a final document, give

59:23

it to all parties involved, and then I can

59:25

sign, and then I sign, and your attendance

59:27

activated. But that is I

59:30

say nutshell. I was little long winded there.

59:32

Yeah. But overall, those are all that's

59:34

the webbing of this entire situation.

59:38

And again, nobody's fault.

59:41

The arrest was assumed. The

59:43

NFL's just seeing something come across their

59:45

desk. It's yeah, you protect, like,

59:47

hey, there's too much going on here.

59:49

Like, yeah, it's easy to just go in and

59:51

say, these two things side by side.

59:53

Obviously, Will's not going to terminate

59:56

all these things and just play football because

59:58

it that would make sense for him personally. But it's

1:00:00

like, hey, we have all of our ducks in a row to where

1:00:02

we would do all of this stuff and jump over all these hurdles.

1:00:05

so that your turn is a possibility. Yeah.

1:00:08

I think it really Like, I explained it well. I think

1:00:10

you did an incredible job at that. You really know. I feel

1:00:12

like you guys are caught up. Okay. III

1:00:14

know once I started to go. I was like, I might as well

1:00:16

just try and connect down the

1:00:18

dots. It's hard it's hard to explain something when

1:00:20

you don't know what you can and cannot say. You said you're

1:00:22

playing in gray area, but you did a good job of being very

1:00:24

clear about everything you said. And I don't wanna make it seem

1:00:26

like it's anybody's fault. 000

1:00:28

because I did I was kind of I

1:00:31

was kinda saying that the p a

1:00:33

should have helped me out more than I take the social media.

1:00:35

because I'm getting told by the way, I'm saying

1:00:37

all this, and I was I was like, hey, you should probably

1:00:40

remain quiet until all this stuff can figure can

1:00:42

get figured out. Mhmm. So I'm just

1:00:45

fuck

1:00:45

it. That bad thing. Let's let's just talk about

1:00:47

Well yeah. Because when you when you sent that tweet

1:00:49

out -- That's what I'm saying. -- that's probably much faster.

1:00:51

I was like, hey, I'm gonna I'm gonna I'm gonna

1:00:53

take the social media. because the strength I

1:00:56

we need strength the numbers. In social media, like,

1:00:58

boys ride. No

1:01:00

matter how yeah. About the boys ride. Like, he got

1:01:02

out there. ever there's so many people

1:01:04

from the PA, and that's where it's like, I

1:01:06

hate saying I wish they would have supported me more because you

1:01:08

say they, like, they're all paintbrush. There's one thing. But

1:01:11

there are a lot of, like, awesome people that work

1:01:13

for the PA. And they're all reaching out to me to where

1:01:15

if I'm sitting there and had my address

1:01:17

book out to where it's like, all these people could help

1:01:19

me, Those are the ones reaching out, figured it

1:01:21

out. And the same lawyers, they're it went from one

1:01:23

lawyer to three of lawyers were involved. It was like the number

1:01:26

one priority. It felt like it anyway that's

1:01:28

guess that's all that matters as I felt like I was being a

1:01:30

priority in that situation. Yeah. But they're getting this figured

1:01:32

out. We got more figured out in two hours and by the

1:01:34

next morning than we had. in a few

1:01:36

days, like a weekend in a in a Monday.

1:01:39

Like,

1:01:39

we got more figured out from that fucking tweet.

1:01:41

Now, you know, I failed the NFLPA. I'm

1:01:43

not a I'm not a huge fan of PA. I've had my laurels

1:01:45

with them and their issues, but playing devil's advocate

1:01:48

on everything. I think the issue that everyone's running into

1:01:50

is Gaming is so new in the

1:01:52

in the the world of NFL. And what's

1:01:54

allowed what's not allowed the NFL has

1:01:56

a specific thing with job? Is

1:01:59

it FanDuel? They're, like, sponsored by

1:02:01

FanDuel. FanDuel is the official sponsor of the NFL.

1:02:04

Oh, yeah. So, like, the NFL is fully involved

1:02:06

in gambling now, but the players cannot gamel, which

1:02:08

is completely understandable. However That's

1:02:10

the that's hypocrisy at a highest level. I know.

1:02:13

But it's also without without a players. It's

1:02:15

a different game. That's justice. Joe Jackson is your

1:02:17

easiest one to get. You should not be able to gamble on

1:02:19

the sport you play. There's inside information that are

1:02:21

training. You should not be able to do that. Correct. If you're not

1:02:23

playing. Now when you're signed, and you say, okay,

1:02:25

I'm not gonna gamble, then I think you're

1:02:27

more than okay. I

1:02:29

think the issue that the NFL player is running

1:02:31

to, and I might be throwing stones and hopefully something

1:02:33

throwing something at a wall and hoping it's six,

1:02:36

is the collective bargaining agreement happened in

1:02:38

what? Twenty twenty? Twenty eighteen. Twenty

1:02:40

eighteen. So in twenty eighteen, Gambling

1:02:42

was not a legal nationwide or in certain amount of

1:02:44

states and stuff like that. Neither was, like, the marijuana

1:02:47

thing wasn't figured out. So when it comes to marijuana

1:02:49

and gambling, because it has not been collective

1:02:51

bargained, at least a lot of gray area

1:02:53

for for the NFL and the

1:02:55

NFLPA. The NFLPA doesn't know what

1:02:57

late they had to stand on when it comes to

1:02:59

hey, we need to get this player who has gambled in

1:03:01

the NFL. And the NFL doesn't

1:03:04

know whether or not they're like, do we make an example

1:03:06

of this guy like we did Calvin Ridley? Right. Or do we

1:03:08

let it go? Like, how strong is there stance on

1:03:10

gambling right now? So I think you're getting caught in

1:03:12

a crosswinds being a trailblazer in this type of situation.

1:03:15

You're you you're kind of a man alone

1:03:17

with two teams. One's your enemy, one's not

1:03:19

your enemy. Like, you're kinda like, everyone

1:03:22

could be friends, but everyone's still keeping their cards

1:03:24

close to their best right now. Right. Because no one

1:03:26

knows what the other people sitting around the table or

1:03:28

drinking as well. because because some guys could

1:03:30

go in gamble. I had no guys in the NFL that gamble,

1:03:32

not on NFL, but they gamble all over the place,

1:03:34

which is perfectly fine and legal. But

1:03:37

there is that, like, that you have

1:03:39

had bet the bust. Were you bet on NFL

1:03:41

teams? Or you say, hey, I would take this under

1:03:44

I would take the titans over

1:03:46

this team and stuff like that, and that's technically

1:03:48

not allowed. But if you stop doing it

1:03:50

and he's done a contract saying, hey,

1:03:52

like, I'm not getting compensated for anything regarding

1:03:55

betting, then what's the issue here? You

1:03:57

know? Exactly. Like, the the frustrating

1:03:59

thing for

1:03:59

me is, like, you're

1:04:01

trying to understand all those things?

1:04:03

while, like, hearing

1:04:06

conversations and getting triggered because you're, like

1:04:09

you're, like so I'm getting I'm getting I'm

1:04:11

getting penalized when I was what I was doing

1:04:13

was completely legal. I'm like, I'm not an

1:04:15

active player in the league. So I might not

1:04:17

ever get that call. So I'm I'm basically

1:04:20

in another career, I'm in another job. Now I'm wanting

1:04:22

to play, I'll sign and do whatever necessary.

1:04:25

It just seems like this this is the longest

1:04:27

conversation And these are just the most hoops

1:04:29

to jump through just to just to

1:04:31

basically get to, hey, we kinda don't know

1:04:33

-- Right. -- what the office is here. Yeah.

1:04:35

There's no foreign guns at each other right now. Yeah.

1:04:38

It's a tough situation. hope it all gets I hope it

1:04:40

all gets figured out, and I hope the NFLPA takes

1:04:43

a stance with you and fights for you a little bit. Now

1:04:45

I think they're in a very tricky situation, so

1:04:47

it's very hard for them to say, okay, we're gonna fight for

1:04:49

Will Compton. Like you said, when

1:04:51

they're looking at from a priority standpoint,

1:04:54

this is not like a massive construct thing. This is

1:04:57

a thirty three year old basketball player than that.

1:04:59

I'm I'm just going down the joke.

1:05:01

I know you don't. I know you don't. don't know if people listen and

1:05:03

be like, man, it was gonna go out, Will. It's like, there's times

1:05:05

where you gotta zoom out and see it that way. Yeah.

1:05:07

But the the the zooming

1:05:10

out part and knowing that my

1:05:12

side is, hey, we'll do whatever takes

1:05:14

like, yeah, does it does it sound like it's common

1:05:16

sense to terminate this contract that you're looking

1:05:19

at for this amount of money I would be making? on practice

1:05:21

squad and potentially for a few weeks in the NFL is

1:05:23

like, no, but you don't need to worry about

1:05:26

what decision I might be making. Just know that we're

1:05:28

willing to bend any which way to make it happen.

1:05:30

Yeah. because sometimes, like, when I was on the phone with somebody

1:05:32

from the PA, he's, like, well, I'm gonna be honest. Like, I

1:05:34

wanna personally apologize to you because I

1:05:36

actually saw this situation last week.

1:05:39

And he goes, and I just talked to my head, oh, there's

1:05:41

no way Will's gonna do that to

1:05:43

play. Mhmm. But he like, now talk with you

1:05:45

and hearing all of the context. Obviously, like, he's

1:05:47

like, I'm sorry. I'll get on this right now. It's wasn't

1:05:50

like he was the direct contact I needed.

1:05:52

he just called out right away and Don Davis

1:05:54

and Don Davis shut out. Don Davis, no free shutouts

1:05:56

to the boy. But he was like, he's like bro.

1:05:59

He was like,

1:05:59

he

1:06:01

was like, I I did I apologize? Like, we'll

1:06:03

get we'll get everything on this. I just I had

1:06:05

no clue that it was this much of an ordeal until,

1:06:07

you know, I'm getting texts saying that you posted this.

1:06:09

I'm seeing that. And he's like, look,

1:06:11

you guys are killing it, by the way. That's neither here

1:06:13

nor there. But it started to get started

1:06:16

to get figured out the ball started to go fast. Like,

1:06:19

when it started to work when I took the social media versus,

1:06:21

hey, radio silence. because

1:06:24

it's just due lawyers get involved, the suits

1:06:26

get involved, there's such a negotiating can

1:06:28

be an issue sometimes. Yeah. And there there can

1:06:30

be issues, but anyway, that is

1:06:32

the fucking year ten update boys. That's

1:06:35

a lot. Then the whole thing was this. I know we can

1:06:37

transition and we gotta get the pac man as well.

1:06:39

But what sucked it's

1:06:41

taken so long is, like, I would have probably been I would have

1:06:43

been on the the goal was I would be on pre

1:06:46

a peace squad, get acclimated for a week, then

1:06:48

you get active. Mhmm. Now we're at point to where

1:06:50

as I'm talking right now, the founders are now on a

1:06:52

biweek. So now there's a biweek in place.

1:06:54

And then it's like there's only four weeks left.

1:06:57

You know? You'd have to get

1:06:59

on project you'd have to get on project going next week.

1:07:01

Get acclimated for that week and then be active for the

1:07:03

next three weeks. Yeah. To get credit The

1:07:05

goal to get a tenth year credited is

1:07:07

three NFL games. It's like I would have to

1:07:09

call Arthur, hey brother, be honest

1:07:12

with me. What are we thinking? Right. And

1:07:14

Arthur is that dude? Right. Arthur would have a candid

1:07:16

conversation with you for sure. Yeah. I know. I

1:07:19

Do you have if you were to get a credit season this

1:07:21

year, would you have ten credited seasons, or would you have nine

1:07:23

credited seasons? I

1:07:25

I believe

1:07:27

I

1:07:27

believe ten credited seasons oh, no.

1:07:30

I know ten credited seasons, nine

1:07:32

accrued seasons. What does it accrued

1:07:34

mean? So accrued means, like, you know, what

1:07:36

is the seven or eight games you gotta play to get in

1:07:38

accrued season? That's towards free agency.

1:07:41

Okay. You're rookie year when

1:07:43

you won practice quad or you won fifty three. But your

1:07:45

practice quad season gets counted as a

1:07:47

credited season the moment you get vested.

1:07:50

So the moment I watch you You're one

1:07:52

practice squad not credited. two,

1:07:55

three, and four. I was on the team all

1:07:57

credited. once year five started and I

1:07:59

got those three games to get accredited fifth year,

1:08:01

now that I'm vested, that practice

1:08:03

quad year now becomes credited because

1:08:06

I got I got vested. did a great

1:08:08

job explaining that and your hand gestures were incredible

1:08:10

too. Oh, thank you. That was really nice. I was

1:08:12

really big because I was explaining it to JP

1:08:14

on holding I was like, here's the draft of the document.

1:08:16

Now we give it to so and so. Now we're holding it

1:08:18

again. Now we call Atlanta, a, are we

1:08:20

doing this? Okay. Cool. Now we execute

1:08:22

the agreement and everything's in place.

1:08:25

them That was

1:08:26

an incredible story. I'm glad you caught everybody up. People are

1:08:28

really anxious to hear that, but we have fifteen minutes

1:10:56

this week, it kinda happened over

1:10:58

Thanksgiving. I went over to a friend's house.

1:11:00

they asked me to get something out of the refrigerator. I

1:11:03

went to the refrigerator. He's like, no. No.

1:11:05

No. Not that one. The one

1:11:06

in the garage. And

1:11:08

I was like, oh, the one in the garage,

1:11:10

and it brought me back to my childhood of

1:11:12

when I go to friends houses and they had the

1:11:14

the garage. the garage refrigerator,

1:11:16

anytime you'd open that thing, that's where all the

1:11:18

best snacks were, that's

1:11:19

where all the good soda was, and then there was

1:11:21

the case of, like, the cases of beer in there. So

1:11:24

my

1:11:24

shout out. No free shout out. goes to

1:11:26

the garage fridge. That's

1:11:29

a small, good one. Oh, yeah. That's a small

1:11:31

one. gamecock's number one

1:11:33

1:11:35

1:11:46

is your money? I'm I'm coming off a

1:11:48

tough week, but I know I'm good. Yeah.

1:11:51

I was sick because, obviously, my shout out is gonna

1:11:53

revolve around that. But

1:11:55

it's not necessarily when you're sick. It's just whenever

1:11:57

maybe it's a little chilly in the room. you

1:11:59

need a little bit extra comparability. When

1:12:02

there's that perfect blanket in the corner of the living

1:12:04

room and you're, like, hanging on the couch, grabbing

1:12:06

that blanket, getting nice and cozy,

1:12:08

snuggle enough for a bit, shout

1:12:10

out to the blanket, being comfortable.

1:12:13

Is that moment too when you catch the blanket?

1:12:15

Just laying over there. You're just like You know what it's like?

1:12:17

like, yo, am I about to

1:12:19

physically put energy in the getting up

1:12:21

and going to grab it? It's any better way that

1:12:23

this is in arm's length. Yeah. We'll

1:12:26

oh, yeah. I have it.

1:12:28

Absolutely. That was good, Jack. For all

1:12:30

the adversity you've been through. That was

1:12:32

good to work through last week. I know he did. I know.

1:12:34

I checked on him couple times. Make you

1:12:36

baby wish you got.

1:12:37

So this one I don't know how

1:12:39

you guys will feel about it. It's not the best, I don't think.

1:12:41

But

1:12:41

Oh, let's let's start over. Oh,

1:12:44

yeah. Start over. I understand. restart

1:12:47

this week. It's not something that happens

1:12:49

all the time. But say, you're, like, out walking with bunch

1:12:51

of friends and, like, you're walking through Patrick Grass or

1:12:53

something. Mhmm. And

1:12:54

where there might be

1:12:56

dog shit. Say,

1:12:58

1:13:00

like, couple minutes later down down the road while

1:13:02

you're walking, like, damn it. It sounds like, shit. Like,

1:13:04

what is that? I was that person

1:13:06

that stepped in that shit, but

1:13:08

my shout out, no free shout out goes

1:13:10

to that when you're not that person, and

1:13:12

then you can rag on the dude that did step in

1:13:14

the shit. You stepped into dog shit. You just

1:13:16

wanna, like, shit. Your shoes are dirty. And

1:13:19

just being able to rag on that person when, like,

1:13:21

it's embarrassing. Like, after you do stuff in it

1:13:23

and you're like, fuck. Well,

1:13:24

you guys, Garrett.

1:13:28

Man, that's wild. You set it

1:13:30

1:13:37

since I've done this one.

My shout out. 0000

1:14:13

My shout out. My shout out. No freeze

1:14:15

shout out.

1:14:18

when you're traveling, your room can get a

1:14:20

little messy.

1:14:22

your

1:14:24

room gets messy and you

1:14:26

start kinda like throwing your clothes around,

1:14:28

but there's always one spot where

1:14:30

you keep some clothes. You're like, maybe I'll wear this

1:14:32

tomorrow. So my shout out, no free

1:14:35

shout out goes to that chair in your room

1:14:37

that you put all your clothes on, that you're being

1:14:39

too lazy about, that you might put on the

1:14:41

next day. That's matter.

1:14:42

Yes, sir.

1:14:44

Yeah.

1:14:45

Yes, sir.

1:14:47

Oh,

1:14:49

wow. I don't I don't know my right now.

1:14:51

Hey. I was actually trying to think of mine too, but

1:14:54

Jack's Jack's did ride on my brain a little

1:14:56

bit, so I'll I'll head it. Go ahead. Alright. So my I

1:14:58

love the shadowed over shadow jacket

1:15:00

if that's even that seeing that blanket and get a little extra

1:15:02

comfort. But I love when you walk

1:15:04

into a room that you're going to sleep in. and

1:15:07

it's freezing in there. Mhmm. You

1:15:09

grab those blankets and you put them on you and you're

1:15:12

legit cold. Like, I'm actually like, oh, I wasn't this cold

1:15:14

to say anyhow, I just put the blankets on me and now I'm

1:15:16

shivering. and my shadow

1:15:19

goes to that transition time

1:15:21

between super cold and

1:15:23

perfectly comfortable. there's nothing better than

1:15:25

getting cocooned in there. Your face is little cold.

1:15:27

I like to stick my feet out too of the blanket.

1:15:30

I like to have my feet out there. So I

1:15:32

can just stay aware. And

1:15:35

when that cocoon kinda warms up, your

1:15:37

body heat kinda takes it all in, you're now insulated.

1:15:40

What a feeling that is? That's

1:15:42

a good one. Thanks, buddy.

1:15:44

the God

1:15:46

damn well. My

1:15:47

shout out. No freeze shout out goes to

1:15:52

Michigan wolverines,

1:15:53

fireplaces,

1:15:56

elaborate Now that we've decorated

1:15:58

the house for Christmas and we're in the spirit,

1:15:59

that

1:16:00

would be a good conversation too, by the way.

1:16:03

But our Our

1:16:05

ten footer lit up beautifully.

1:16:07

Mhmm. You have the Christmas lights, the garland

1:16:09

going up the side. Like, you just have the scene. We

1:16:12

even moved furniture around a little bit,

1:16:14

committed it. You saw it. Yeah. Looks great. And it's just

1:16:16

cozy. And then when you get it's that time of year to

1:16:18

where you turn on the fireplace and you get that fire

1:16:20

going. The scene it's

1:16:22

hard to beat that scene. Like, there are a lot of

1:16:24

people who hate what then it gets dark early around,

1:16:26

like, five o'clock at night at five o'clock at a day

1:16:28

now, four thirty. but I enjoy

1:16:30

it just because we get that scene longer

1:16:33

night whether we're watching a movie, watching Netflix,

1:16:35

but when that fire is cracking, and then

1:16:37

you got the Christmas lights up, like, I

1:16:39

really do enjoy it. Mhmm. And if my shout

1:16:41

out no for shout out goes specifically to

1:16:44

our places. The to tell you just

1:16:46

a step further when it's all dark outside and you turn

1:16:48

on lights off and the only light is the fireplace

1:16:50

and you look over and you

1:16:52

see a significant other and they're just glowing from the

1:16:54

fireplace. Yeah. What a feeling? I can't

1:16:55

What a feeling? Can you think what everybody thinks? Do

1:16:58

we wanna get up down on the floor right now? And Yeah.

1:17:00

-- we're on a precise place. Right.

1:17:02

because why wouldn't you? Yeah. That man did it. Yeah.

1:17:05

So

1:17:05

he

1:17:06

did do. Didn't he?

1:17:08

I thought that'd work. Probably

1:17:10

a universal what's

1:17:11

up?

1:17:13

gas. Just

1:17:14

turn that we just turn just turn that button

1:17:16

on. Yeah. Probably no crackling.

1:17:19

When I said that, I was like, does it crackle?

1:17:22

I

1:17:22

tell you what, that's tough, but we'll

1:17:24

see a more tough as Will. Doesn't

1:17:26

have a real tree.

1:17:27

What? Yeah.

1:17:29

He said he said ten footer. Yeah.

1:17:31

I walked up to that thing and I just Nothing.

1:17:35

Here's what I saw and I saw JP.

1:17:39

I I that's an l. That's an I told

1:17:41

you about you. That's all I had to say. It's an l. I'm

1:17:43

willing to bear

1:17:44

because

1:17:45

the basically, I'm lazy. I

1:17:48

think the concept, we always got a real tree growing

1:17:50

up. We always had to go to the the tree

1:17:53

park. Yeah. We

1:17:55

We always had to go to the street park. What's

1:17:58

you doing with that?

1:18:01

You're good. You grew up.

1:18:03

On a three park, three park, my dad would cut one down.

1:18:05

We'd always bring real one in.

1:18:07

And so there's no question that I'm

1:18:09

really letting a lot of people down. Your family.

1:18:11

Yeah. My family. the worst part.

1:18:14

But so, yeah, we have a

1:18:16

fake tree. Like, we're it's we're a fake tree family.

1:18:18

Like, no cleanup. I I wish

1:18:20

I had to smell a pine. but

1:18:22

no cleanup. Like, you take it down,

1:18:24

you have it all year round. It's it it just

1:18:27

1:18:29

l. I'm willing to take. It's an l. I'm willing

1:18:31

I I am For how long now that it's an l. For

1:18:33

how long? Like, you use this you use

1:18:35

this forever? No. We because Charles

1:18:37

and I sit there and talk. We're, like, yeah, we need a whether

1:18:40

we get that tradition going as crew gets older,

1:18:42

like, to where we go to, like, a tree park

1:18:44

and hunt went down and stuff. thing is, like,

1:18:46

I don't wanna cut a fucking tree down. There's you

1:18:48

really that's not even that's something you don't have

1:18:50

to do. You go to a tree a lot and you pick out

1:18:53

a tree. Say, when you can when you can deliver that?

1:18:55

Next, y'all will be there on the thirtieth. And y'all perfect.

1:18:57

Can you deliver? Yes. They

1:18:59

will literally Put it up for you and then

1:19:01

1:19:03

pine needles. See, I didn't know that. I know.

1:19:05

I thought I'm putting this motherfucker up. I thought

1:19:07

I'm cutting it down. I'm putting it up. we gonna do

1:19:09

game to get up and go help, put the

1:19:16

tree up. Like, go help, set it in the thing. I'm

1:19:18

1:22:20

for sure. Yeah. Yeah.

1:22:22

I'm with you, bro. Let's

1:22:23

do it. because not only are you fighting this week

1:22:25

in a rough and rowdy, which we'll talk about, but you

1:22:27

also cohost with I'm athletes.

1:22:29

So I feel like that collab just has to

1:22:31

happen. You know what I mean? It wouldn't be right if it didn't.

1:22:34

Let's make it happen. Yeah. And we'll

1:22:36

do that. Where y'all located? Nashville. Oh,

1:22:38

shit. I was just fucking there. When?

1:22:43

Last night, I drove back. I got back in

1:22:45

full day. This is fucking morning. Yeah.

1:22:47

had a big signing. We had a big signing

1:22:49

in Nashville, Lee, D. Y. and Lendale

1:22:53

and Chris Johnson. You

1:22:55

know, you think Chris and Linda

1:22:57

will tell us? Right. Right. Like, they were just they

1:22:59

were just on the podcast. Room?

1:23:02

Yeah. Were you wearing that bangles hat when you were in

1:23:04

Nashville?

1:23:05

No. I didn't have the

1:23:07

bangles at all, but I was rooting for the bangles.

1:23:10

You're

1:23:10

rooting for the bangles? And hard

1:23:12

to hear, buddy. that's hard to hear because they had

1:23:14

two Titan fans in the back that do production

1:23:16

for us, and they were just giving you massive

1:23:18

flowers. Returning

1:23:20

being a stud. Lokey

1:23:22

called you a legend. Yeah. For Tennessee.

1:23:24

I appreciate it.

1:23:26

I appreciate it. Yeah.

1:23:29

I appreciate that. But Let's get into

1:23:31

this fight, man. So Owen won going in a rough and

1:23:33

round. You're fighting the same guy you did last time. How do

1:23:35

you feel about that? fucking Owen won. I'm winning

1:23:38

that just didn't let me I just didn't win

1:23:40

on they they in their

1:23:42

opinion, in my opinion, I want. You want?

1:23:44

Take us through that fight, and why would they give you

1:23:47

the the the l. When do you think

1:23:49

you deserve the w? Like, why do you think it went

1:23:51

the other way with the judges? I

1:23:53

just think he knew a little bit more tech than

1:23:55

I did. You know, they've been this time.

1:23:57

He'd had,

1:23:58

obviously, a lot more experience

1:23:59

than I have. The

1:24:02

the ring was a lot smaller than I thought it would

1:24:04

be. So I missed a lot of things that I

1:24:06

know now, that I didn't know the first place.

1:24:08

So shout out to Bobby now.

1:24:11

As a person, Bobby is cool, but I'm over with his

1:24:13

ass. confronting, like See,

1:24:15

I I caught that first fight. Like, I

1:24:18

would say he won the fight, but

1:24:20

only because, like, you just said it, like,

1:24:23

the size of the ring, like, he just kept you on

1:24:25

the roll time to where you couldn't really have any distance

1:24:27

creating a distance and swing on him. He kinda just

1:24:29

leaned on you in one by points, I guess. And

1:24:31

there's three one minute rounds. Like, are you still

1:24:33

doing one minute rounds this week? Are they gonna be longer? Or

1:24:35

is it gonna be the same Oh, long enough rounds?

1:24:37

One minute rounds again. but this

1:24:40

is gonna be abroad. It's not gonna be that shit

1:24:42

when it was last time. Somebody's gonna get

1:24:44

hit in my life, and

1:24:46

I don't think it's gonna be me.

1:24:48

Are

1:24:48

you bringing the culture out? Like, you guys were you

1:24:50

guys were out there. They were allowed last time. Do we have more

1:24:52

people? Are we gonna get some more Pac man Jones fans

1:24:54

in the building?

1:24:56

You know how we travel. I don't know how Bobby's

1:24:58

travel, but man, like, has we will

1:25:00

not get on the road. So we'll

1:25:02

be up and bone fuck too.

1:25:04

You know

1:25:07

what I'm saying? With a big lip in.

1:25:10

with some of that Pac man smoking, we

1:25:12

don't be in the building. That's

1:25:15

the trouble. you

1:25:17

say, there's a lot of things he knew that

1:25:19

you didn't know. What what's your game plan going into

1:25:21

this fight right now? A little bit of distance?

1:25:24

Lambda, and I mean, that's sir. With

1:25:26

with A31

1:25:27

minute rounds, you gotta do a lot of damage quick.

1:25:30

You call it Knock out a window. distance.

1:25:32

I ain't no distance. gotta get

1:25:34

up on there. because the way Will explain it

1:25:36

to me is he has you up up against the ropes quite

1:25:38

a bit. But but it's because he's No. He's not

1:25:43

swing and it hit him in the body. Like, he's just

1:25:45

he just didn't have any separation where he's literally,

1:25:48

like, head down kind of, like, leaning into his body and

1:25:50

just the ref would have to break it up. By the time you

1:25:52

break it up two or three times, the rounds fucking over. Yeah.

1:25:54

You know what I mean? He's the champ so he was gonna win

1:25:56

by points. But

1:25:58

guess what? I

1:25:59

got some footage

1:25:59

you did, sir. I can't

1:26:02

wait. Can you tell us any kind of secret?

1:26:04

Like, what that might be with the There we go. unboxing,

1:26:07

man. So I'll tell you that. we're gonna be

1:26:09

fighting, like, we're in the back. Like, I'm coming out

1:26:11

the project for some weird man. Oh, that

1:26:13

box of shit is out the window. We got a fucking

1:26:15

minute. I gotta I gotta go whoop his ass

1:26:17

to discipline.

1:26:18

every round for a minute.

1:26:21

What what makes you wanna

1:26:23

get back in the ring? Like, what makes you wanna box?

1:26:25

and getting the ring especially like when you're doing stuff

1:26:27

off the field like you're already doing.

1:26:29

You know, that's just that

1:26:31

that that is that fire. And then

1:26:33

that's this would be when I could get to

1:26:35

do the the celebrity boxing, this would

1:26:37

be my time where I can, you know, undo

1:26:40

the seat belt and be pac man instead

1:26:42

of being mad at him every day. So It's good

1:26:44

for me because they take a little edge off, you know.

1:26:46

And I I get to do something that I

1:26:48

really enjoyed doing. I only

1:26:50

been doing this down there a year now. So

1:26:53

I'm just getting better every week. Like, I

1:26:55

think I think I'm

1:26:58

I'm better if the rounds was longer.

1:27:01

because I'm I'm pretty smart as far as

1:27:03

going back. God said, going to coach assistant

1:27:06

and going doing it. It's hard to do it in a minute,

1:27:08

but I'm eager, ma'am. I'm ready.

1:27:10

I think

1:27:11

I think it's gonna be an outstanding fight.

1:27:13

What how did you get into this situation where

1:27:15

you're doing rough and rowdy? Like, how was this present

1:27:17

was this presented to you or did someone come to you

1:27:19

and say, hey, we need you? So

1:27:21

I seen him fight, and then

1:27:23

Dion Dion is like my dad. Y'all know that.

1:27:26

He's like, hey, man, you wanna fight? I want you

1:27:28

to fight. Oh, we're from rowdy. David, you wanna

1:27:30

fight He's like barstool.

1:27:32

You wanna fight on barstool? I'm like, shit.

1:27:35

Yeah. I fight. I'm gonna turn it down to

1:27:37

fight. So I

1:27:39

think that Bobby was the champ. I actually

1:27:42

called Pat McAfee at the time while

1:27:44

he was on live, Aaron, told him that

1:27:46

I were with his ass. And then that's how it

1:27:48

all started. You said you were in world, Bobby's

1:27:50

ass or pass pass?

1:27:52

Bobby's. Got you. Because Bobby's the champ.

1:27:54

I feel like he's just been the champ all the time, hadn't

1:27:56

he? many fights did he want?

1:27:58

Eight. Yeah.

1:28:00

Eight hillbilly fights just fucking wrecking

1:28:02

dudes out there in now Pac Man, Connecticut. Bobby

1:28:05

are tough to you don't know. ain't trying to take nothing

1:28:07

away from Bobby, but I'm fucking tough.

1:28:10

I don't really. Yeah. I like your

1:28:13

your Pac Man Adam analogy. That

1:28:15

was that fired me up a little bit. Like, I'll probably

1:28:17

place an irresponsible wager when you come this

1:28:19

weekend. Yeah.

1:28:20

Because, you know, the seat belt

1:28:22

coming up this weekend, you know, I have to

1:28:25

I'm a father, uncle, husband,

1:28:27

wife I mean, husband. whoa

1:28:30

now. Whoa. Whoa. Whoa.

1:28:34

But yeah, man.

1:28:36

So My life is different.

1:28:38

You know, people

1:28:40

think that I'm so

1:28:42

rah rah

1:28:44

and loud. and

1:28:46

this and that, but that's the complete

1:28:48

opposite of of me as

1:28:50

a person really. I do have my times,

1:28:52

like I just said, when I take this seatbelt out,

1:28:54

but It's the time and the place for everything.

1:28:57

Yeah. Did I did I love to have

1:28:59

a I cannot believe he was in Nashville.

1:29:01

I know that breaks my heart. Last week, Taylor and I

1:29:03

were in New York and they're like,

1:29:05

hey, would you guys wanna have Pacman come on? Our first

1:29:08

question is always, can they come on the bus?

1:29:10

Like, is there any shot we can get him in

1:29:12

Nashville? And they're like, Probably not because he's,

1:29:14

you know, he's doing stuff and promoting anything. They

1:29:16

literally told us he's not traveling right now. Yeah. Yeah.

1:29:18

He's he's not traveling right now. He's training. And

1:29:20

so we're like, alright. We can't I

1:29:22

had to go to Nashville because it

1:29:25

was pending money. So Back. The money

1:29:27

was calling. Yeah. Yeah.

1:29:30

Is Brandon Marshall taking care of you guys over at

1:29:32

I am, athlete?

1:29:33

He better.

1:29:34

You're already on the you're already,

1:29:37

like, close to show. You'd is did he already

1:29:40

did

1:29:40

he ask he already has he already taken care

1:29:42

of you? Well,

1:29:44

I'm up on the contract. I guess that's

1:29:46

what you're asking me on your term contract.

1:29:48

Was I a athlete? Yeah.

1:29:51

Oh. Well, I'm I'm

1:29:53

trying to figure out what are you asking? Are you asking me

1:29:56

is my contract up? am I working on

1:29:58

the new deal? What are you at? Oh, I thought you've

1:29:59

been going. I thought you're getting me. I thought you're

1:30:02

I thought you're consistently with I am athletes. I'm just

1:30:04

saying it's Brandon Marshall taking care of you over there, and he said,

1:30:06

You said he better. And I'm thinking like, oh, shouldn't he

1:30:08

have already taken care of you? Mhmm. didn't know you're in the

1:30:10

middle of a contract thing. Got you. Okay.

1:30:12

Yeah. He's taken care of me. Are

1:30:14

you negotiating with others? Other suitors? Other

1:30:17

brands? Would you?

1:30:20

I'm

1:30:20

always open. Like, I I can't see here

1:30:22

and tell you that I'm not open. if

1:30:24

it makes sense and it fits my

1:30:28

character of me and what

1:30:30

I like, you know, I'm open.

1:30:32

But the reason why I do like that I'm

1:30:34

athlete because I

1:30:37

can be myself. I don't have to switch it

1:30:39

up, change. I might not say everything the

1:30:41

right correct ESPN way,

1:30:43

but everything I say got fucking facts about

1:30:46

it. When I fucking said last week, they're

1:30:48

fucking packed man.

1:30:50

Patrick Mahomes can't read fucking defense.

1:30:52

I meant it. When I said last week, the

1:30:54

fucking job bureau is a better quarterback.

1:30:57

impacting him? I meant it.

1:30:59

When I said last week, that fucking

1:31:03

what's the coach over there?

1:31:06

Is that Taylor?

1:31:07

Oh, one. And it comes for the cheese.

1:31:09

Read. Read.

1:31:12

When I said, Andy Reed is

1:31:14

to me, number one and number two

1:31:16

coordinator as long as I've

1:31:18

seen the game? I mean, I

1:31:21

don't think Patchman Homes have you ever been

1:31:23
