Hey, part of my take listeners. You can find every episode on Apple podcasts and Spotify. Prime members can listen ad-free on Amazon music. It's Fran from Chicks in the Office. The weather is getting cooler and Abercrombie's fall drop has everything I need for the season. The best-selling A&F Sloan Taylor pant is a closet staple for me. I'm always wearing it to work events, happy hour, anytime I want to be a bit more dressed up. And the viral Dylan dress is easy, one-and-done perfection, but my fall uniform will always be denom pair with a handly sweater, a bra-free top. It's comfortable, effortless, it just never fails. Find your fall capsule at Abercrombie, shop in the app online and in stores. On today's part of my take presented by Draft Kings, we've got our good friend, Booger McFarland on the show to talk some ball we're getting closer and closer. I think Scott Hanson did the Tweet four Sundays. You'll see you in four Sundays. So we're talking college football. We're talking NFL with Booger McFarland. We're going to do who's back the week. We've got some baseball to talk about. We've got some preseason football to talk about. We've got some golf creators that have just come on the scene to talk about. And then we are going to finish the show with the Mount Rushmore of professions that deserve a walk out, walk out music. I also have a quick Monday reading that we can hit as well. And it's all brought to you by our friends at YouTube. There's no worse feeling than missing out on Sunday NFL. Seeing people talk about plays, you didn't get to see your fantasy running back score two touchdowns and you find out 10 minutes later, your local broadcaster isn't carrying your hometown team's game. So you're piecing together the action from alerts, highlights and texts. That's not how Sundays are supposed to work. We don't want you stuck with Sunday NFL FOMO. That's why there's NFL Sunday ticket and YouTube TV every game every Sunday all in one place. And the best part, multi view, you can throw out to four games on the screen at the same time, which is honestly how football was meant to be watched. No flipping channels every 30 seconds. No refreshing your phone because Twitter saw it before you did. Nobody wants to hear about the insane play five minutes later. You want to be there when it happens because the NFL isn't about hearing what happened. It's about experience it when it happens. New users pay $240 or eight non-cancellable payments of $30 a month. First charge it purchased availability varies with NFL Sunday ticket for out of market games and YouTube TV for local and national games. YouTube TV required terms, restrictions and embargoes applied commercial use excluded no refunds. Go to youtube.com/NFLST to get NFL Sunday ticket for eight payments of $30 a month for new users. Okay, let's go. Welcome to part of my take presented by draft Kings. The crown is yours today is Monday, August 17th and boys. We had football. We saw preseason football. Football is back. Are we ready to make some crazy proclamations off of the second and third stringers going up against each other? I'm always ready to do that. Yeah, we could a hundred percent do that. Drowler. The future. Drowler looks like him. Yeah. Drowler's him. Ty Simpson. The future. Also him. Yeah. They're both him. Sam Howell back. Sam Howell's never left, but he's still back. Yeah. What I think he meant to say. Ty Simpson, the highlight real Ty Simpson was very funny because I watched the compilation of every single throw that he made. Don't get me wrong. Impressive numbers. Good job by Ty Simpson. He had a very good game. Sounds like we're going to put you on a list. I'm a believer in Ty Simpson. There might be some allegations out there much like, you know, Patrick Mahomes might be a check down merchant. It's gotten him pretty far in life. Yeah. And as a quarterback, he just might be the next Patrick Mahomes. Yeah. I listen. Ty Simpson. I'd be like the game one of the preseason. That's what you're just trying to get, you know, go to auction one, and just move things. He said it's forward on time. No mistakes. That's exactly what he did. I So I am a believer in Ty Simpson. I just want to buy stock right now in Ty Simpson, proclaim myself with Ty Simpson believer. The NFL preseason is so I'm so over it. I just can't. It's especially like it used to be. We used to be a proper country where you'd actually get to see some of the starters. I mean, Josh Allen played credits Joe Burrow. He got sacked to like, I think it a 20% pressure rate, which is not a good sign because they were playing their first team offense. Remember that was always the criticism of the Bengals start slow because they don't play anyone in the preseason. But I just, what is it? Is it preseason? Game two is now the dress rehearsal? Because game three used to be the dress rehearsal. Right. Game three used to be able to see starters throughout the first half. I think it's maybe the first half of game two. Yeah, because game three, you can't really start them, right? I guess not. But maybe in game one, I thought I thought we'd see at least a little something. So there's no game four, there's no week four. There's no week season, but that means that there is a week of just practice. Yeah. Yeah. So it might be the first half of week three might be the new week three. It was cool seeing all the helmets and everything and everyone on the fields and all that shit. All that jazz. It was great. There's five. I think we saw five new team like uniform helmet combinations. Oh, and they all look good. So there was the, I think it was the dolphins had like a new slight tweak redesign. I thought that was good. Falkens. I thought that was fine, but again, you can't get into better than if they did the old Blacks all the time. Yeah. The commanders just looked like the old Redskins uniforms, which is awesome. Sorry about Marcus Mariotta. Marcus Mariotta as an engineer. He will be out. I think through the end of training camp, I think he's going to be their week one. I thought he was hurt more. Because it's brand MCL, I think. So Dan Quinn has signaled that he's not going to bring in any more quarterbacks. That might change, but he said that. Oh, the remainder of the preseason. I read it as a season. No. Okay. Yeah. He's fine. Yeah. So I think they're going to go with the Greek kid from Rutgers. Oh, yeah. I need TJ to teach me how to pronounce his name. Minnesota first, then Rutgers. Yeah. Well, how do you pronounce that guy's name? Galfanakis. It's very Greek. I'm not sure what it is. Damon. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I was close. Galfanakis. It's Galfanakis. Galfanakis. So I think we're just going to go with those guys. And then the Ravens had due uniforms look good. And the Rams had due uniforms that don't look anything different from the old uniform. Yeah. So that's our preseason week one. I really just can't. Like I watched the first half of the Bears game. And I was like, okay. Like Caleb wasn't playing. Like there was a bunch of guys who were playing like, so okay. Okay. Roshan Johnson, like show us something. I think I was about it. I think there's three things that you can do while you watch preseason. One is hope that your players don't get injured. Yep. Like every play. That's easy one. Kind of hold your breath. And then number two, it's kind of fun. If you get some guys that are announcing in the booth that normally don't do the games. Mm-hmm. So they might screw some stuff up. Mm-hmm. I'm not talking about grooms going to be fine with the booth. But you get like a weird combination of like local radio talent sometimes the booth. That's always good. And then and then three, I guess, you know, you see guy like fumble the ball and you just say, Oh, he's cut. Yeah. That's fun to do. And four I would say is the wide receiver who pops off who's like six on the depth chart. But he you got to throw the ball to someone. Yeah. So that one guy who pops off and you're like, Holy fuck, we got a guy here. Or a defensive end that gets like two sacks. Mm-hmm. And then you're like, this guy is going to make a difference. Check his get off. That guy is going to be a third down specialist for us this year. And then you never hear his name again. Yeah. Check this get off against a bunch of guys who are going to get cut playing offensive life. Yeah. But it's pretty simple ball. It's preseason football. I think how much preseason football did you watch? I watched some highlights. I watched some at the bar, but I think it was also highlights. Okay. That works. So highlights and some other highlights. Yeah. That's I think that's an appropriate amount of. Tommy Vito Anthony Richardson. He was he started for the colds. He looked good. I still believe. Yeah. I don't. Yeah. You're not done with him. He's he's a freak. When he has a free you were going to say something about Tommy Vito. I think he was more like it was like roll call. Tommy Vito check. He saw him. Yeah. He plays like a listen birds that you see on a vacation. I like Tommy Vito, but if he if he was our quarterback every week, it would it would be tough. That's a totally fair thing to say. I think a lot of teams are in that spot where it's like, Hey, you have the backups playing. Did Zach Wilson go off? Zach Wilson kind of kind of sneaky went off. Game ball. Yeah. I'm going to say it. Zach Wilson gets our game ball. Also good to know Zach Wilson's on the Saints. Yep. Didn't realize that until right this second, but that's awesome for him. Preseason's also good for like taking whatever storyline you want to take about your offense or defense of the scheme they're running from week one. And then just hoping that somehow they hear your concerns individually. Yeah. And they address those concerns with the scheme in week two of the preseason. Yep. But in reality, they just probably make another shitty game plan for week two of the preseason because they don't care. And you go into week three, thinking if they don't turn around this week, it's going to be long season. It's going to be long season. Long season. Yeah. You're highlighting Joe Milton going off. Yeah. Always believe always. Yeah. So could Joe going off. I hate that he's on the couch. Did you guys see speaking of injuries, you see LaFour said that love is going to be out for a week with a sprained ankle. I didn't see that. Yeah. Yeah. That's tough. That's going to be confusing all season long. It was Michael. Floor and Jeremiah love. Which actually you could just do m m LaFour and J love. I need to still would be confusing. That's that's annoying. They got to figure that out. They got to like be like the red the red the floor said that the red love is out. There's a there's a new trend of people just like showing running backs and like the silhouettes a quarterbacks of the silhouettes. Jeremiah love silhouette looks eerily like Adrian Oh, I saw that clip. It looks almost exactly like Adrian Peter. It's crazy. That was nuts because the clip was literally someone said if you like ball knowers know who this looks like and I immediately I was like now that I'm like some great ballman brother like that's Adrian Peterson always running like standing up. Yeah, you know Adrian Peterson's running style. That's exactly. There it is. That's right there. Yeah, play that shit. Go up. Go up. Go up. Go up. There it is. Boom. That's Adrian Peterson. That is Adrian. Yeah, I love that's Adrian Peterson. It made me go back and I watched more Adrian Peterson highlights this weekend. It is kind of funny that that's Adrian Peterson. That cut right there is a P. Tyler Algier is on the Cardinals and he is like role is just always to be like whoever the awesome player is just you're going to be the one who gets their ass kicked. When we get to the point of the season where the where the season sucks like hey we're not going to give Jeremiah love 300 carries. So you're going to have to take the ones that just gets you punished. Yeah, that's basically been his job in the NFL. I saw Fernando Mendoza made a couple good throws. Yeah, he dropped a shock too. What do you mean? Was it a was it a shock? Hold on. He said oh like shucks like no, no, maybe it wasn't shock. It was a new alternate for a swear word. Yeah, here it is. Rookie year really gets slammed up on you. Boom. Here's your playbook and here we go. Wow. I thought I knew a lot. Holy shuck. I'm how far behind. I've got to study this to feel confident in my preparation. Holy shuck. Holy shuck. That sounds like he's he's code switching being around Kurt cousins. It might have picked that one up in house. It is very funny that like Fernando Mendoza went to the one team where like now Kurt Cousins is the badass. Yeah, he's getting a fight match. Yeah, like when you put them side by side you're like damn Kurt Cousins. What a like he's probably wearing a leather jacket driving a chopper. Yeah, maybe a bad influence on on I was going to shock Mendoza. Yeah. Okay, that that's our preseason wrap wrap up. Feel good. I feel like we hit them all. There's one other story out there. I don't know if anybody was going to talk about in whose back of the week. But it's kind of like we should have seen this coming like that job in our part. Dylan hurts mustache. Not that. Oh, it does look good. It looks really good. You know who else had a mustache. Yeah. I'm talking about the viral campaign of the canoe daling. Oh, yeah. The canoe daling it turns out was not just natural canoe daling. It wasn't that he's part of a larger content scheme. Yeah, that that the NFL is is trying to get more women to pay attention to the game by incorporating glad culture. Mm-hmm. Who do you think is telling the quarterbacks? Like they have to go to them and basically ask a favor more or less. Do you think that's like they're getting paid the communications person like they're doing it like oh you have to come do an interview or it's like higher up or they're like hey. Also, they don't know the status of the relationship. It's like hey, please bring your wife to practice. I'll be honest. I'll need the quarterbacks. I didn't read the article that was sent in our group chat because I didn't want to give Saint Shane the satisfaction of him being right. So like I just ignored it all together. Is someone getting paid? Are they getting paid by like big canoe daling? No, it's NFL is trying to market. So the NFL but but like are they saying hey, we'll give you a little extra bump here if you can get your girlfriend to run as her because it happened with Justin Herbert. It happened with Joe Burrow and then there was another right? Was there one more? I believe there was one. Oh, Jackson Dart. Yeah. Jackson Dart might not have gotten the memo and he just was like look at my hot girlfriend. That's very much possible. That might have just been outside the purview of the campaign. Yeah, just working for free. Yeah. No, so it says the NFL has been coordinated efforts to reach its female fans as a part of a far reaching content campaign involving players, wives, and girlfriends according to a new report from front office sports. One example is the widely circulated photo of charges quarterback Justin Herbert, spending some personal time with fiance Madison beer at a cap in early August. Bengals Joe Burrow and rumored romantic partner Olivia Ponson along with Giants Jackson Dart and girlfriend Marissa Ayers have also felt more visible online than past years and it turns out that's no coincidence. On the league and club level, we've engaged our players families and loved ones for years in Trumbetta, the SVP of social marketing for the NFL told FOS whether it's training camp weekly practice or a major event like Super Bowl. We look for authentic opportunities to highlight our players and the people who are part of their journey. Yes, because I got my fingers up. Now, I don't want to go back down this path. Let's go. No matter what path it is, let's go down it. That's what they say about our show. But no paths untrodden. What is what's the one relationship that's gotten the most fanfare in the NFL in the last I would say four years. I would say why is it is it a relationship on that relationship? Taylor Swift and Travis. Yeah. Huh. We're back on it. Big. That was right. I thought you were going to talk about a different series of photos. So did I. Yeah. Hanks skated by on that one. The hypocrisy. How come it's cool when Justin Beard. How do we yeah? Yeah, that's that they they're definitely trying to find the next. They they missed like, oh, shit, they're married now. We're not going to get that bump. Who's next? But also if the NFL is coordinating this stuff, did they coordinate the entire relationship? Right. Would any would are people are people out there clamoring for proof? I mean, again, some people are of the relationship. Some people have that's documented. There's documents. Would could that possibly be something that happens? I've I did think it was interesting on the guest list. It was like every Fox NFL Sunday. Anyone that that smelled Terry Bradshaw's fart got invited to that wedding. Roger. Do you know? Dean Bladino was the funniest one. I'm just saying. Greg Olson's hat. They didn't get enough discussion. What? Just the half of the word of that wedding. Was it cool? It's unbelievable. I mean, he's a cool guy. He's a cool guy. He's a big time hat. Yeah. I actually didn't know if he was a cool hat guy. And then I saw him wearing a cool hat. And I was like, yeah, he he pulls it off. It's cool. It's just, it's stuck on Travis. I don't like the body shaming Travis Kelsey. He's older. Come on. Let's let's let's not do that. No, he looks good. Red is a hard color. It looks good. You're Paul schemes got cooked. Yeah, we talked about here. Paul schemes. Also, Paul schemes. Who cares? There are no there are no like ripped pictures. They're all they do is yoga. Yeah, it's like pitching and pliability. We're going to get into it a little bit with with Bogram McFarland. But like, that's what you would like a quarterback to look like. Maybe not so much like John Mateer. Okay, pliability is important. Yeah. Okay. Should we let me do let me do a draft Kings reading them. We can maybe talk. Hanks favorite subject. YouTube golf creators. We got a new new one. Draft Kings.

Hank, anything happened in the YouTube golf community in the last couple of days? So much. Yeah, like what? The, uh, the never-make-a-five guy almost did it. Oh, I love James. James is a man. And LeBron James started a YouTube channel. Oh, is he a basketball player still? He's a, he's a producer. He's a, he's a director yet. Now he's a, he's a YouTube golfer. Would that potentially director? Would that pretend to take away from his basketball playing? I mean, the, Bryson Deschambo is probably the, the biggest, you know, one-to-one example of that guy's that focus on YouTube golf instead of the regular job. And he's not played well. Oh, like actually really bad. Oh, but he did win one, he won me, he won one major. How was, how was LeBron's golf game? He's new golfer. He's not great. Is there anything noteworthy? Like is he good at something or? I, I, I haven't watched, be honest. Uh, I think it came out like yesterday. Can I make a suggestion for LeBron? But like he's, I think, I think I'll get good. I'll do respect. Definitely. We'll get good. This segment's called I'll do respect. And it's, when I address LeBron James with respect regarding a choice that he makes. You got to work on your thumbnail game. Mm-hmm. I'm not talking about going to see the manicure. Mm-hmm. I'm talking about, you need to like pop your eyes out. open your mouth, put your hands on your cheeks like, oh my gosh, this is so surprising. Like did, I'll do respect, this is not a YouTube golf thumbnail. It's just not. What? - Wait, what's wrong with this thumbnail? - I mean, Max, you're pretty, you understand what does well in this. - This looks exactly like a thumbnail. - No, you got, you got to be, you got to be making like those guys are good looking. - Yeah, you got to be making the, this, wait, these guys, J.R. Smith, you got to make the Ron James, Richard Jefferson, looks like part in my take. The style of the, of the thumbnail is the same style. - I'm saying the, the really successful YouTube video, you know what I'm talking about, don't play dumb, where they make the surprise, they make the surprise face. - Yeah. - When Shane says, hey, can I take a quick picture with you in the, in the core, on the middle of the course. - Or make the surprise face. - Oh, look like you're looking to the right and you just saw a shark. - Yeah, that's, that's for like, to get, to get it to pop. But like, the Ron James doesn't need that because he's a Ron James. But think about how much more it would pop if he did it. - Yeah. - There's gotta be someone out there who doesn't know who LeBron James is and he scrolled right past us because he's like, those guys aren't even looking surprised, right? The biggest three of three, three, several ever. Max, I have a question for you. - You already said he's not gonna go off during the season. - Okay, I've heard that. - Yeah. - I've heard that. - There's never been someone. - I guess guys aren't allowed to have hobbies. - There's never been, - Hank's a podcaster. He golf's all the fucking time. - Yeah, I know. - We talk, we create a podcaster. - We create a podcaster. - Those are my children. - And we have children already. - And we criticize about him. - And Hank would never make his children the focal point of our show. - He's been-- - I don't like the golf pun. - I have a question, Max. - We're getting to live in just a second. - If he is making golf content during the season and things maybe don't start great. - Will you be criticizing? - He's not going to be making golf content. - Have you guys loved the hypothetical game? - Have you watched? - Have things that just haven't happened. - Have you watched? - No. - It's called thinking. - What? - If LeBron was on like, I feel like you don't even like LeBron. - Let me ask you a question. - I don't like you too golf, okay? - Has he worn LeBron gear still? - Yeah, first day. - Would you criticize Tray Turner if he was making golf videos during a big slump? - Well, baseball's way different every day. - I'm just asking. I'm just asking. - I just ask while you play every day. - I'll play golf all the time. - All the time. - Yes, yes. - Tell me what you. - During the season. - Yes. - No, they do not. - Yes, they do. - Yes, they do. - Like once a week? - Yeah, off day. - I mean, picture is golf all the time. - Yeah. - Well, yeah. - Pictures are different. - If it was a picture, I would have no problem. - No, but like, position players do too. - Yeah, once a week. - So if Aeronola made a golf video, you would be fine with it. - Aeronola, is it? (laughing) - Aeronola, actually. - I'm just asking. - I'm just asking. This is me asking if you're gonna be consistently Philly. - We'll see. - You love this hypothetical game. - I do, I do. - I do. - You're the answer. - Let's say it. - He hasn't played yet. - Yes, so why are we talking about it? You're literally just, you're literally just, he has to be able to like, we have nothing to talk about. Let's just hammer the LeBron bun. - Well, I mean, he became a goalkeeper. - He gives a fuck. (laughing) - He's the summer. - He actually is discovering the summer game. (laughing) - He's discovering, he's also discovering LeBron James. He's discovering, he's discovering in the middle of August when LeBron James makes a golf YouTube account. - Wow, LeBron James. - LeBron James, LeBron James puts up a YouTube video. Up next on ESBA. - That's literally what, like. - If LeBron was on the Celtics, you don't think you wouldn't say anything to Hank? - I wouldn't watch. - I want to watch the video. I'll tell you that much. - Yeah, you would have. - Yeah, but you love YouTube golf. - I mean, Hank might be around for the sixers this year. - He's gonna love this content from LeBron. - Have you watched podcast B? - No, I thought, I think he stopped podcasting. - I think he stopped podcasting. - I don't know. - I'm pretty sure he stopped podcasting, yeah. - He quit, yeah, while he was on the sixers. - You guys made him quit. - Yeah, I didn't watch that either. - Are you guys gonna make LeBron? - Yeah, you guys might make LeBron quit the tube golf. - Yeah, so you hate podcast B for creating media during the season, but you'd be fine with LeBron James for making YouTube golf. - I never said anything about podcast B podcasting. - All right, so bet right now, how many YouTube golf videos are gonna come out during the season from LeBron? - Overunder is 0.5. - Over, over, over, over, over, over. - But you just said he's not going to. - I mean, there's breaks. - Okay, and if he plays bad after the break, I just need that so bad. Like a, hey, a putter only challenge after he scores six points. - That game won't happen. - Oh, boy, if it does. - He's done it once in the past fucking. - He's averaging one a year in the past year. (laughing) - So what happens if it happens, if it happens coincide with his putter challenge? - Well, it's one, it's once every 41 years. - Yeah. - Well, no, he had a couple of starters career. - Yeah, it's gonna be funny, especially if he gets his teammates involved. - Yeah. - Awesome reason was what the Bob does, guys. - Yeah, what if he doesn't invite Joel? - True. - We'll say a lot, what if he doesn't invite Jalen? - Maybe he doesn't like, maybe he, - Those guys, yeah, that's what I'm saying. - Maybe he doesn't like to golf. - Ooh, Jalen? - Tyros, no. - Joel, I'm on beat. Maybe Joel on beat doesn't like to golf. - By the way, Charlotte, Joel on beat. - Still healthy? - Yes. - Yeah, that was a bowl shit. Before we started the show, there was a fake shams, shams that said Joel on beat got hurt, and I sent it to the group chat, and Max just looked at it and he goes, "Well, at least it's out of the way now." (laughs) It's like the, you were quick to like, compartmentalizing. - Well, it was surprising. - I know, you were like, it was actually really good, healthy, like coping mechanisms. You had done it so many times that you're like, "I know how to deal with this." - Yeah. - Close your phone, you're just like, "All right." - Realistically, in my head, I was like, "All right, well, at least we'll have like the full year to figure out how to match without a beat, and then it won't be just like, right before the playoffs where they just, all of those went through my head within like, the 30 seconds that I thought that it was real. - Yeah. Okay, I have, do we wanna do baseball? I have a Monday reading real quick, if you guys wanna do it, yeah. Okay, let's do the Monday reading. This is from Mizzou Parents and Families Facebook page. So, I don't know if you guys saw this, but let's just dive in and you guys can tell me your thoughts. This is from a parent. Okay, this is probably a little awkward to ask, but here it goes. I've been reading through posts about getting our sons ready for college dorm life, including all the supplies and medications they might need, and I've noticed a lot of moms mention packing condoms for their sons. As a mom, I'd like to put a couple of boxes in my son's things too, just in case. But honestly, I have no idea what size to buy. He's a pretty small guy. He weighs about 121 pounds. For those of you who have sons around the same size build, what size condoms you usually buy, and how do you actually tell what size they are when you're looking at the package? For those of you who have sons around the same two, two two build, what size condoms you usually buy, and now do you actually tell what size? So this is just summing it up. My son doesn't have a girlfriend. He's generally not very comfortable talking to me about things like sex or how to use condoms. Wow, I wonder why, mom. You're buying condoms on Facebook. So I'm not really comfortable asking him directly. I was thinking I'd just buy some and quietly put them in his luggage just in case he ever needs them. Any advice from moms who have been through this would be greatly appreciated. Fellas, what size condoms you buy your son? - XL, give him a confidence boost. - Worst case scenario is, he just opens them up in front of his friends. They're in a suitcase. - I don't think there's anything wrong with going with a magnum. Except then if you don't want your mom to be like, yeah, that'd be tough. As a kid, you're like, my mom thinks I've got a hog. - Yeah. - But then the opposite side would be brutal. It was like, my mom thinks I got a little tiny weeny. She didn't go far enough. She should have been like-- - Regular is the answer. You just get, like every condom is normal size, except for the magnums. - Yeah. - I'm surprised she didn't go as far as to be like, last time I bade them when he was five years old. He was about average size. What do you think he grew into? - It would actually be, it'd be a tough look for the dad if the kid opened up the suitcase and his mom thought that he wore magnums. - Yeah. - He was like, well, what's the other dict-- - Yeah. - Oh shit. - Dad must have a tiny penis. - Yeah. - If you think mine's big. - That's quite the post on Facebook. - Did it get like good-hearted, good-natured-- - I just have a screenshot. I see 29 replies and six thumbs up. So there were at least some people. Actually, let me see if I can find the replies. - The good news is he's gonna be out of the house so he can buy his own condoms if he wants. - Yeah, he's a grown adult. I think this is something you just let him. - Maybe you just get a gift card form to Trojan. Do they sell those? - Okay. Oh, here's anonymous participant said, I just bought a variety pack. I put it in with the toiletries. Oh, that's pretty good. - That's nice. - And then she replied, I didn't even realize they sold variety packs. Honestly, that may be the lease awkward solution. And then someone else wrote, tell Little Joey to grow a pair and buy them himself. I mean, fuck, instant, boost squid. Yeah. And then someone said, I wish I knew if you were kidding or just a total dumbass, if you're serious, go measure his dad's pecker and go from there. And then she replied, I don't think that would be an appropriate conversation either. And his dad is quite a bit bigger than him overall. - So much of that would be reliable. comparison this is brutal yeah you can't be doing this don't get the variety pack that's got like the flavored one in there yeah also the kids not gonna be able to keep a bone or if he's like taking the kind he's like oh my mom bought these for me I don't even know I mean it's all an anonymous stuff I don't know if this is a troll but it's very funny if it's not I love this yeah just moms I didn't realize there was a size but my daughters and sons but my daughters and my son each got a box as they moved in oh I'm leaning towards one regular box and one snug box just letting him figure it out from there snug is that what they're called I was overthinking this because I didn't want him opening his suitcase and thinking I was making some kind of statement I think that's too they were too late yeah too late on that because guess what this kind of went viral and your son who is 121 pounds showing up to Mizzou how much now we're now we're whittling it down to probably about a hundred dudes and he opens up his his luggage and there's a variety pack a snug and a magnum he's gonna realize that was his mom who went viral on Facebook whoops oh and his dad has a big dick you can also just buy your own cock that's the thing is like you can you can take your money and then you can go to a store and then you ask the guy and you buy the car actually the student health center probably has free condoms yes definitely does so 100% does you know what size he wears free yeah or just put on a piece of paper remember to pull out yeah like that that works as well kind of feel better remember to just remember to pull out kind of fucked up that you're you're taking away that option from your son yeah it's true you're kind of tying his hands yeah well not his hands yeah okay that was that was my Monday reading do you guys want to talk a little baseball because I we do have to mention Joshua Baez what he did on Saturday against the Cubs I hate the Cardinals I hate this guy but even I was watching the game and being like holy fucking shit if you missed it Joshua Baez came up for his MLB debut on Saturday at rigley and he hit three home runs in his first three at bats never been done in the history of baseball there's been eight guys that have done it for their first two at bats he did first first three it was incredible to watch like I sat there I was like I cannot believe I was I listen to the first two in the radio on the radio in the car and I was like holy fuck and then I got home for the third I was like how is this possible you can do you retire after that well it was I was at the game today and it is his like showed his stats is like five at bats three home runs so his cleats are his cleats are being retired in the but the crazy part is they weren't his cleats oh it was Blaze Jordan's cleats which is an all-time name yeah all-time name so he didn't have his he had like an old dirty like broken in paracletes and Blaze was like here take these use my cleats he had three home runs and then they took his cleats sent him to Cooperstown how do you feel about that for Blaze Jordan yeah I mean you're in Cooperstown yeah yeah yeah hall famer Blaze Jordan yeah it was it was not so watch like I was it was just it was crazy and I don't know I do think that you could make the argument that he's a Matthew Boyd merchant because I don't think he has a hit against anyone else and he hit that was the other thing Craig council probably shouldn't let Matthew Boyd in there to have that happen but three three it bats first three it bats in like hitting a home run of your first at bat which he hit an absolute bomb in his first one that's insane three is just Max where I mean what you got a retire it's the it's the best thing ever and I know that we don't let it happen to us Steven Shay triggered me why well no we let it happen to us all the time I do it every day he tried to say that it's the same thing as a as an NFL players debut having three touchdowns not even not even close like not even remotely okay it would be like you catch his three touchdowns yeah it would okay three catches three touchdowns I can see that or if it was like three picks sixes three picks sixes with three picks sixes yeah no three picks sixes I think would even be what about three catches three touchdowns for like a hundred but Max is no I still don't think I know it's it's absolutely incredible I can't imagine the feeling that he had like leaving the ballpark that day it's got to be like getting your debut in itself is awesome hitting a home run in your first at bat is awesome I I can't even possibly fathom three in a row it's the best feeling in the world that guys the he he should he should die he should die right at this moment it's well we don't want to die I don't want to die but like what what a way to go but Max wants him to I mean it was it's insane it's it's truly insane like you you can't get yeah I they shouldn't have they shouldn't let him come out for the well I guess you have to he have to see if he can hit a fourth but after that like you should have should have given today off so he could have just been like yeah the the weekend I hit three home runs yeah for yeah I mean he's kind of set himself up for how did there's a there's a lot of expectations on his shoulders now he went over like if he has if he has a bad career or if he has just like an average he's always going to have that but people are I guess they're going to give him more shots than anybody else would get because it's like remember the guy in his first game hit three yeah it was it was that's all right so wait what I'm looking I don't want to find the most oh no gale sayers I think had four touchdowns and his nose by rookie in a game oh no that's by a rookie in a game okay I can't I for some reason I can't find but yeah it's not it's not three touchdowns that's not three home it is his first three at bats like that's a great it's not three if he hit three home runs but he you know when home run strike out home run strike out home run like yeah that's still insane but it's his first three at bats were home runs what a absolute monster and I think I'm going to have a problem with this guy forever like he seems like he's going to be incredible and the Cubs dance he swatts and getting hurt his bad news getting killed did you guys see I wanted to bring up one other majorly baseball thing we're in an all time mid off right now in the a like all time it's incredible to look at so the right now if the playoffs started in the American league the raise would be one the white socks would be in the Astros are leading the West and then the Yankees in the Red Sox both above 500 would be in the playoffs the next wild card spot because there's a third wild card the leader right now is the Baltimore Orioles at 61 and 63 between the Baltimore Orioles there there are six teams within a game and a half and they're all under 500 it is the greatest mid off that we've ever seen so right now there would be you said the Orioles the Red Sox the raising Yankees 4 out of 5 ALS and AL East teams would make the playoffs and the one team that wouldn't would be the one that went to the world series last year correct that's crazy yes and yeah they're not far behind there 61 and 65 they're one game out of the wild card the white socks that is that's the coolest story the yes white socks have been awesome I want the white socks huge sweep this weekend against the Tigers because the Tigers are starting to kind of breathe down their neck the Seattle Mariners are 58 and 66 they're 58 and 66 that's a bad baseball team they're three games out of the wild card that's that's just how critical is that it's insane and then you look in the in the NL the Diamondbacks would not make the playoffs they're 66 and 59 the Diamondbacks are 66 and 59 the Diamondbacks are would be basically have the same record as the Red Sox they would not make the playoffs that's just a league so that happened like that was just NBA all time too no no but it's just funny to look at the mid off that's happening like not one of those teams can just separate themselves and be like hey you know what let's play some good ball for like a couple weeks and take this six spot do the and then do the Dodgers have an NL central problem the Dodgers yet well the Dodgers have always struck I mean they've driving nuts because they just can't beat the brewers in the regular season but yeah the Dodgers have been not good recently yeah you see Kyle Tucker what a fuck Max would you call what you call Carson was a Carson wins mental pussy yeah mental pussy Kyle Tucker is he sat at a home game because he's so bad at home so he literally can't hit at home yeah and he's he sat he was like I need to rest from what do you mean by that what do you mean by that did he just have an off day he David Roberts said hold on it was like they addressed it it wasn't there's a regular off day like he deserved an off day Kyle Tucker is out of the lineup because of his frustrations playing at home got it okay I needed more clarification on that because the way you said it at first it could have just been it off Dave Roberts said he can see the frustrations starting to sit in with his struggles at Dodgers stadium so he's giving him a day Kyle Tucker at home this year is batting his slashes 192 292 76 that's crazy he's under 200 average at home so they're right to sit him but also you can't say you can't say that you have to protect him yeah you have to protect him and not say that's why yeah it's crazy yeah just say it's an off day also guys get off days all the time feel the dreams game we recorded before it max predicted it perfectly he said the kind of well did you say college I did say college or was gonna hit two homers but I also said that Aaron Noah was gonna give up five and Aaron Noah pitch very well yeah that was a cool game oh no I mean, they should make that a bigger deal though that should be on Sunday night baseball Like I don't know why it was a Thursday night. It's kind of kind of random I think the Williamsport game is is coming up and I always bet the over in it because I just assumed in my head But like they're playing on a much smaller field metal bats and then I and then I turn it on and I'm like, oh shit That's actually pretty pretty deep fence. Yeah, I Do the same thing with the Iowa game. I'm like there's no way that these The this corn game is gonna be the regular side. Well, you assume that the ball if it's hit to the outfield There's no wall there. It's just going to roll into the corn. They won't find it. There's it's it's Major League baseball games played in Iowa. Major League baseball played games played in Williamsport Major League baseball games played in Mexico. I automatically take the over and then I'm so frustrated when it doesn't hit Nothing about Iowa ever says the over but it does because the corn. There's no real outfield, dude You know that. I know I'm saying but in reality that is an understate. Yes. Yes Okay, do we have any other any other stories before we go to who's back of the week any other big we're so close boys I actually enough from the James Bond thing or that's we it's over We talked about it with Booger a little bit a little bit of cleanup. Just they dispute that they ask for the trophy back Yeah, he didn't ask for the highest and he's the biggest meme on the internet. Hey, hang on. He is the biggest He said his his people said they didn't ask for the trophy and then LSU replied with yes You definitely asked for the trophy. So I'm thinking somebody might have asked for the trophy Oh, so he did ask for the trophy somebody might have asked for the trophy Andy is the biggest meme every He's a crock. He's gone cross sports like MLB teams are roasting well brand accounts Yeah, once brand accounts get involved. Yeah, there was like I someone some five guys has changed their name to four guys One MLB team one four to one yesterday and they're like we we stopped it four out of respect for Jaden Daniels like shit like that Mm-hmm. It's just open season on them right now. Yeah, there's and there's a lot of fives everywhere fives are every it's everywhere You look now. Yeah, I can't get away from the fives Somebody did point out the part of my balls guy pointed out that I I guess five like 10 times as much as anybody on the lottery bone machine Yeah, because I didn't because of Jane Daniels. Yeah, but you retired from retired retired that number. Yeah, I'm sorry from picking that number and so did you no, I didn't Well, I'll hear from my lawyer. I Do have one last thing for you. Who's back Hank? Dan Christian McCaffer is missed a full week of practice Accounts of tights. I mean thoughts. No, I haven't heard anything I didn't watch the video he posted on Instagram like a training video It might have been YouTube video. He's a fucking monster. Uh, I think he's gonna be just fine. I listen to the Publatory finds out about the the substation thing. I think Christian McCaffer definitely believes it. Yeah, a hundred percent I think it's got to be out like how do you like it even if you didn't believe it if you had to hurt at practice That is entering your mind. Yes, yeah, like and then from then on you probably believe it I would believe it if I was a player like I would I would it's such an excuse to be like Oh, we're fucked because of this stupid substation regardless of if it's true or not like right? It's it's something to believe in That I don't really get Like do you scientifically understand what the the harm could be just like Kind of and so that part I've never even tried to follow I did another medium dive So this was I was listening to publicoid finds out as I was falling asleep. So some of it's seeped in There's studies that show like on blood cells that electro magnetic currents can damage the blood cells But their individual cells and a lot of times they're not people cells. They're rat cells So like they've I think they've proven that it can be damaging to rats and mice But a lot of stuff is damaging to rats and mice like cartoon dogs that you might not even think about in like real life So they don't know, but they I guess they they have standards of how much your body is allowed to be exposed to and Even though their practice facility is like 10 times more than you would get in a normal house or a regular street is still like something like 20 times below What the standard is that I told you that I saw Christian McCaffrey and I brought up to him that you'd said the walls and he was like Yeah, I heard I was never even closer retirement. I didn't say that by the wall I said the wall Hank reported something from the walls. He's like yeah, no, I I know It was Whitney Whitney Whitney bang me if it was I don't know do we ever talk about what actually happened? I heard it was a ridiculous like it was a it was like a friend of a friend I would never have said it publicly and then I said it like I was golfing with Whitney and I told him I was like I said like This is you know probably not true not like I'm not saying I'm not saying on the podcast, but like I kind of believe it who knows And then Whitney went on bus and it was like yes, I'm gonna bursles a christian McCaffrey It's like not coming back and like he's hiding his injury and then it came back to me in the walls, but that was not It was it was it was a third party source, but again, I was like who knows he was injured for a while and there was not like There's conflicting reports. I did just see the tightness and I was like oh Hank Is it just general tightness? Yeah, no general tightness. Hell yeah, that's hot. Yeah There's I love I love big injuries like that. I think I think no one error not to went out with left sore left trunk What what part of your body's your trunk? I don't know you got your ended or something Max. What's what part of your body's a trunk? That's not an elephant joke I'm just saying like I just want to make sure they didn't Now I'm just thinking about Max or the trunk. I thought it was I thought that your trunk is Your legs right your butt. Is it your butt? No your thighs. I think you got some junk in your trunk I think it might be your trunk your abdomen Max. I agree with that junk in your trunk is a thing But right I think we're referring to somebody is having like I think it's your butt general trunk soreness Okay, the trunk is the Back end of a car. Yeah, no wait The trunk is a central part of the human body also known as the torso. Oh So like yeah, yeah. I thought it was just your leg, but I'm an 80 your abdomen. Yeah, I You're just searching chunk in your trunk. Yeah, your trunk means your butt. Yeah, it's butt. It's butt But you know this is this this this is that's confusing you're right He's a truck like in in the rap world trunk is your ass Mm-hmm Which would make sense because the trunk of a car is like the butt of the car You guess a trunk arrangement syndrome It's it's always been your abs, but yes, junk in your trunk is a thing Yeah, but that's a reference to car what you doing with all that junk in your trunk It's great. It's great poetry. It's yeah, it's it's almost like they say the good the good guy young and I'm scared. I'm great That's real. Yeah, real. That's real. That's real real. That's almost too real All right, should we do who's back? Yeah, yeah, I'm not I'm not I'm not looking at a video of LeBron and Bronnie swing is like unbelievable. So he should be a golf he is It's beautiful. It's a it's a it's a beautiful site. I calm down. What about brownies? I mean the bronze LeBron calls like a new golfer Is he too big to be golfer? Nah, I think I'm pretty sure like the distance from the bottom of your hands to the ground is equivalent for everyone They just make the the trunk of the club longer Wait, what did you say like People that are five nine use the same size clubs as people that are six five that's that's not but the distance from the bottom Make your hands to the grounder is not the same with everyone Hank told me this one time Why aren't golf why are their sizes for golf? I get that but what you said does not make any sense, but their arms are longer Yeah, it's all wingspan like what I'm saying like your hands when you're when you're when your hands are hanging down holding a golf club It's the same Hank. I do you think do you think there's no way that everyone like a really tall person putting their arms down does not They're they're taller right so they're Yeah, there's like everyone's arms go to whatever you want to say where where do your arms go Hank has told me this one time I think your pockets a seven footers pockets are higher than a five footers I also think I've used this fact that Hank told me to other people and other people have called me an 80 it depends on your wingspan But there's no one who has a wingspan that can cover like a seven footer. Yeah, their wingspan can't Go further than a five foot like five footers already at the ground if the like let's say if you had Dwight Howard That has a wingspan of like somebody that's seven ten and then you had a will Campbell who has a wingspan somebody who's five two Would they use the same size even though Dwight's taller than will or look down to the Mitchell whose yeah six three, but should be six eight Yeah, his his arms are crazy. These are good question sass. Oh, man. We are You want to talk about any jazz right? I'm trying to find some deep idiot people who are six foot to six foot three need half an inch longer shaft People who are six foot three to six foot five frequently need a full inch People who are taller than six five need an inch and a half or more. Okay, so how many people have you told that to my friend When I started golfing, my friend Andy, who's short, was like, I was like, oh, I need bigger clubs. He's like, no, you don't, like, it's the same size. Cause like, our hands, they're the same size. And then I ran with it. Andy's like, Andy's like PFT size. - This is a perfect, this is a perfect tankism that I bet you like someone smarter than us is going to reply tomorrow and be like, Hank was kind of right, but kind of wrong. And we're not going to realize it. - I think it's where you stand. Which I think that's a good spot for you to be in. - Yeah, where you stand, it made perfect sense to me to the point where I just, but you didn't think about like a really tall person. Their hands are definitely not close to the same like distance to the ground as you. - No, I didn't think about it too much. Cause I was like, oh yeah, all right. I can just use the same clubs. I guess it's probably like five, nine to like PFTs. Point six, three is the same, but obviously, you know. - No, that wasn't my point. - Six, three to six, five, like about six, six. The point was, if you're above six feet, you need a half inch longer than normal. Because a normal size for a man is beneath six feet. - So you have the small size, and then the regular. - I do think it's regular size. And probably harder to golf if you're really tall, just because the distance, the club has to try. - That is correct, yeah. - And be correct. - You can hit it harder. - You could probably hit it as true. - Also true. Take the good words. - Roy is pretty short. - Yeah, listen, I was let a foot, let a strike. It sounds kind of right. - It does, it sounds, I think, it sounds interesting. - No, no one will, someone will, I'm gonna push back. - The one thing you said does not sound right whatsoever. - Because the second you said it, I was like, what? - Yeah. - That doesn't sound right at all. - It sounds interesting if it were true. That's one of my favorite things. - All right, Matt, you're about to chime in and say that Hank was right. - You're like, no, I don't think Hank's right. But now I'm thinking, like, there's no way Chaz uses the same golf clubs as Les de Braun. - Correct. - Yeah. - No, you're correct, yeah. - Sure. - That was point, that was a point. - Thank you. - Well now I'm thinking about it more. - Yeah, a really tall person's hands are further from the ground than a shorter person. - We at some point we should do the Mount Rushmore of things that would be cool if they were true. - Get a, get a tape message. - Because that would be the sound of them. - Do you have a tape measure in here? - Zach's got it. - Right, does Zach know where to go? - I don't know. - He's just gonna be making laughs. - No, I'll figure. - No way. - He's no where to go. - Chaz is a two-one that he just, like, gets on Uber Eats and just orders a tape measure to wrap. - He got very nervous when I said Zach's got it. - Zach's got it. - I mean, there is a room that probably has it? - Oh yeah. - No, I've gotten one from that room before. I could have told you. - It's our tape measure room. - Is that out and about? - Yeah. - And Nikki smokes to walk around one other day. By the way, book day is on Tuesday, where we're in the shirts. Go buy it, Amazon. Can pre-order still. It's gonna be out. Zach, no, no, come in here. - There was some light fact checking done in the book too. So we won't have things like that. - Yeah. - I'm gonna do the Twisted T-Add. Measure Hank standing up. The tip of his fingers to the ground and then PFT standing up. The tip of his fingers to the ground. All right, who's back in the week? Is brought to you by Twisted T, who's back in the week is presented by Twisted T.

I want to wait to get the results. Okay, the results are in. Do you think you can remember the results from long? I know he's telling PFT as well. I think Hank is further from the ground. I think I've got my wing span might be as wide as Hank's. We got a big wing span for a short guy. Okay. So PFT's were about 27 and a half off the ground and his were 26 and a half. It's about an inch difference. Okay, wait, but okay. Oh, I see, yeah, that makes sense. That makes sense. Wait, no, it doesn't make sense. That goes opposite to what we were saying. So that means. The taller person. Get in here and measure up. No, that means that Hank's hands were further away from the ground. No, he said Hank's hands were closer to the ground. Oh, yeah, 'cause my wing span plus wing span. So this is good for Hank. It makes sense. No, I have a bigger wing span. No. Because my. Now measure wings span. Hank does have a bigger wing span. Hank also has very long arms. Yours are about 29 and a half off the ground. So Big Cat's 29 and a half off the ground. Does it taller? Is there a chance it's taller? Why is why I know it doesn't use her air? Hank, Hank, come measure, Hank's again. Yeah, exactly. 'Cause I'm the, I'm the lowest number. I don't know why you are. You measure Hank again. But, let me, let me, if he has these numbers, make sense. I'm, my hands when I drop them are further from the ground. I think it's 27. I'm seeing 27. Are you sure PFT was 27 and a half? That's it. This is some good shape, right? I'm sure the new, no balls that have the big souls. Okay. Yeah, 'cause he's wearing basically sandals. Okay. He's got it. What do you got? 27. 27. All right, so they're the same. But I'm not the same. Check again, check Big Cat's. What are you saying? Science. So everyone, so Hank. Take your shoes off, Big Cat's. Yeah, take your shoes off. Take your shoes off. Take your shoes off. Take your shoes off. Everyone with their hands on their sides is 27 inches from the ground. Take your shoes off. Take your shoes off. I honestly didn't think this is not something that I feel super strongly about, but I would like to be proven right in the off chance that I am. No, you're about 30. 30, Big Cat's. Okay. How does that make sense? Wait. That makes no sense. No. No. Zach. To the side. You are. Oh, he's sweating so much. 28. 28, that's it. Wow, two inches shorter, okay? How did we just get a two inches right there? I don't know. That wasn't even close. This is a conversation you could just isolate and play for the mom that was debating what size to buy for her son. This one we got to send to the library. There's no way you can do that, right? Buy our book. Yeah. How does this podcast been this successful for 10 years? That's actually a low point for us, boys, all around. 'Cause I'm still confused. And now I'm starting to doubt myself. I think-- I need to know how there was two-inch difference within 30 seconds. Some of the hand placements straight down and then one of the measurements you guys were like tucked to the thigh. So it was like, it's changed to the straight here at the palm. This is it all stemmed from one very, like, spreef conversation I had with my friend, like, six years ago, but I definitely have been repeating it since then. You've been spreading it. You told me this, like, a year ago, and I have brought it up to the other. No, I know, ever since that conversation, every time I get spread out by it, I'm like, oh, yeah, 'cause it's the same distance from the ground. All right, I found something online. When down by your bodies, everyone's hands roughly the same distance to the floor. Hear me out of stenders. Wait, my wife is, we've tried it. There seems to check out what? Your wingspan should pretty much match your height. So in most cases, people that fall under average height, it will balance out. Oh, shit, Hank might be right. And-- No, but there's just no way. If Shaq stands next to some-- Oh, yeah, the outliers. Just that way. The outliers, yes. There's no way. Let's see, let's look up Shaq. Thanks to some of us. It's our hands, right? Yeah, actually, they've definitely taken a picture together. Shaq and some of us-- Oh, my God. Yeah? Are they right next to each other? Pretty close. Not even close. I'm looking right now. No, he's slanted. He's slanted. No, dude, his hands are so much higher than that. Look how uneven his shoulders are. Look. There's-- Hank. There's like a-- His right shoulder. Hank. Look how sloped his shoulders. Look how sloped his shoulder is. Take care of saying. Imagine if he leveled out that shoulder. Hank, they're not remotely close to each other. You are. No one's looking at his shoulder. I am a man of shoulder. Look how much lower his left shoulder is in his right. It's about the same distance as their hands. No. Shut up. You shut up. What about Jose El Tuve and Aaron Judge? Same bat. They-- Yes, same bat, Hank. True. True. It's all adding up for-- True. Oh, fuck. I just saw a picture of this. I think Aaron Judge El Tuve is the same. It might be. Look, there's another picture. Go to Images. There's another picture that it's like way too close. I mean, me and Big Cat, I think he was the same size golf clubs. Yeah. Yeah. But that-- But LeBron James is six-- Nine, right? El Tuve and Judge El Tuve. That's not-- wait, wait. Go back. That's not the same. Hank. That's not the same. What are you looking at, Max? What are you talking about, Max? That's not the same. He's on a base. But I was left foot. One foot's on a base. Left foot is not on the base, dude. He's about a foot higher than El Tuve with his hands. Yeah, they're not-- OK, this one's-- You're in. Max, come here. I think-- You're just seeing photographs, and Judge's arm was bent like 90 degrees. Look at this. All right, I think that we've got I think I know exactly where we land hear me out. I Think and in this bad. No, this is the fuck up. Yeah, what are you talking about? I'll do his hands like half a foot closer to the ground of that picture. What are you looking at? Well, they're right next to each other. Hey, back me up. Oh, yeah, that's not I mean Judges might be lower. Max. Are you blind? I'm serious. You're an idiot, Max. Do your eyes work? That's so wrong Max. It's close. You can get close. You can do it. Trust me. You're in a cross and Aaron Joe. It is close It's closer than you would think here's where I think hate might have been a little bit right and it backs up What PFT found out about like the the you know, you need an inch higher on your clubs that just put it put out the ruler And he did it to the end of his glove. I think that it's probably everyone everyone's arm distance to their ground Literally brought out a ruler to show the difference and he went to the bottom of his glove He's using a tape measure on a computer screen To the bottom of how to vase glove Hands aren't even close. We got a glove. He's wearing a glove Look at the hand. It's not his hand respectfully. It's like this Max is so dumb. Can we get this pick? Can we get these? No, we get these pictures. You're right. I'll two vays are closer He's in this picture is that picture in this picture It's they are club like I'm gonna describe their club if you want to look it up at home It's the picture where I'll two biz got the orange cap and he's kind of touching his belt slash groin I think it's an all-star game. It's an all-star game. They're wearing the American flag socks. Yeah I think what what the answer is is that everyone's arms when they put them to the side are within a few inches of each other And that would track with what you found is over six six you add an inch over six nine you add an inch and a half That's all it is so they're not the same. It's not like one for one. Yeah, so if a guy is seven feet tall He doesn't get like you know comparison like six to seven whatever that would be on a golf shaft This one is bad, but it's not like it's like shoes like that. The um a huge majority of golfers are probably using the same size shafts Like correct 90% correct whereas like shoes everything else. It's different sizes. It's different everything It'd be like it's like I was I was right. It'd be like shoes if if if sizes nine through 13 were all the same I think it's like eight through like how do we start talking about this? He looked up a video of bronny swing. Oh Yeah I asked if the brown was good and then I said oh, I Guess like a tall guy. We even did an ad in the middle of that All right, who's back to the week Hank? All right, let's change the subject my who's back the week is Scotty Sheffler. Okay Just apt. He's tall right? He is tall. Yeah, he is tall Scott it's looking to picture. Is there a picture of him next to Rory? Oh, yeah, definitely Let's see how with their hands are but Scott chef are not only one. He's he dominated. It's nice It's it's fun to see you know someone winning by like three four strokes is like pretty boring But when it gets to the point where you're winning by 8 9 10 like it's it's exciting to just see someone dominate the best place Scotty's hands are way higher than then like for the graph I was gonna say Max is gonna look at that picture and think well that's one dead heat. Yeah, who knows you guys That's yeah, one we're not saying. We'll just have to have Zach take up a measure on that computer picture All right, so Scotty dominated dominated one by one by eight also Zach next time you do that print it out first And then measure to piece of paper. Yeah, how is this the first time his second child has been in the winner's circle Say winner's circle like it's a horse race. I Don't I think you won one of one one time earlier. What was he there was he too much of a baby. Oh I don't was he there today. Well, yeah, I think he was I think someone said I think I saw a tweet saying like Remi Welcome to the winner's circle. Yeah, then that would that would make sense. Okay, so don't jinx anymore. Yeah, good good for him Was it is this a elevated event? It's the fat. I mean, it's yeah $20 million per and I saw that was a JT. They get eliminated I think now they're starting to like whittled down from 75 to 50 et cetera, et cetera By the way, I love Max unfortunately also is done for the year. I did love Brooks when he was asked about not making the FedEx playoffs. He's like it's absolutely pathetic. Yeah, he's just brutally honest Better than just being like balls first year back. Just trying to work. He's like, no, it's pathetic. Mm-hmm. He's right. Yeah. Okay, good. Who's back Hank? Thanks Anything else going on the golf world? No, okay, he and Polter What about it would happen with him said he thinks lived his dog That's a report for me and Polter You see, but he's not close to league. Oh, no, he was like a founding member. Oh I mean overdoing that guy. No, no, no people have said that they're it's gonna happen next year too You know what this is they're they know that it's gonna here's what's going on these guys are on the prediction market Max start listening These guys are on the prediction markets. They're telling all it's doom and gloom all lives are gonna die Meanwhile, they're buying a lot of investments and live coming back. Maybe stronger than ever. Yep, and then they'll all be rich. Yeah, and the Hank will be rich too. It's facts Okay, PFT Um, so my who's back in the week was gonna be canutling Because it's getting shut down our throats again, and it's part of that that larger ad program thing or the the campaign from NFL Wags So I'm gonna pivot and I'm gonna say just a news thing that I I listen to on Friday crazy story from those weirdos in North Korea Usually they're pretty above board guys that you can you know trust with a handshake at firm looking the eye You know how they've been making money because they they had all the insurance schemes in the world for the last like 30 years It would just like ensure their buildings, okay, and then they'd say that they burned down Mm-hmm And then they just wouldn't let the inspectors in from outside the country and they'd be like we need to check now for the money for a factory that burned out That was how they're making a lot of money Then it ended up being that no insurer will ever ensure anything that they build there again So what they pivoted to was they figured out how to make fake employees Apply for jobs all across the United States for remote work, okay? And figure out exactly what to say during your recruiting visit or like when they you know interview you remotely and they've got like Chat GPT or like some AI program pulled up They type the questions into and then read the answers off to the person that's interviewing them So there's been a shitload of people from North Korea getting hired By American companies for remote work and then after they get hired they collect like two weeks three three weeks worth of pay and they never show up at all and they don't do anything That's good. So like Dave genius. It's pretty awesome. Yeah way to make work. It's bad, but it's genius But it's kind of it's kind of sick too right that apparently like in this economy where nobody ever sees each other anymore You can just get a job and not do the job and still make a little bit of money off it at the time So apparently it's like 10,000 people or more that have been getting hired now recruiters have figured out a way to figure out if somebody is from North Korea Do you know what it is? Oh, I don't know They ask them in the recruiting process It seems like you're very qualified for this job. We were impressed with the sample that you sent over We just need you to say Kim Jong-un is a fat pig Oh And then we'll move on to the next question and if they just refuse to say it Then they cut them off. You're not hired. So that sucks to like the one or two guys that actually likes Kim Jong-un But is an American. Yeah, that would be tough. Yeah, that would be hard one to explain like if you're just a big fan. Yeah, or Like you don't like calling people fat. Yeah, what if your brother raised you better? Yeah, what if you're North Korean wouldn't be good to say that and get the job anyways and then give it all that money Kim Jong-un It's good point. Maybe he can get some lap band surgery. It's good point. Get on the shot. I don't know. He's not that fat He's pretty fat. No, he's on olympic just like all the other hot shot beautiful Hollywood stars He's he's a he's a strong man. You know what it is? It's the pants. It's the pants that just they're big big trousers They look like like Trace McGrady draft night pants. Yeah, and then he wears all the time. So I mean he's a tucked those things in I'd agree All right, my who's back the week is sources. We touched on this on Friday show, but it hadn't fully Fleshed out. We talked about it, but there was a report on Wednesday that the bears were gonna move to Indiana and be called the Indiana Bears and I mentioned briefly on Thursday. I was like I think that guy thought he was texting me. Yeah Turns out that guy 100% thought he was texting me. There was an imposter big cat who adduped this guy bend divine into reporting that they were gonna be the Indiana bears I Don't know how I got roped into this whole thing, but it was quite funny on Friday to uncover it all and be like what the fuck is happening? So it didn't pass the sniff test a million different ways. I mean you guys have known me for a very long time Do I have I I don't think I've ever broken a story. I don't give a fuck about breaking stories. What story? I don't know. There's got to be one But wait, what what's sniff test? You're talking about just the name Indiana bears. No the sniff test of Have am I someone who ever breaks stories maybe like an innocuous one 10 years ago. I don't know Yeah, but I'm not in the news breaking game if I had a story. Why wouldn't I just break it myself right? Yeah? I've never texted with this guy and then he sent him a picture that I had tweeted six months ago as proof that it was me Yeah, that's crazy. Yeah, the whole thing was in the other guys a journalist. Ah he was an analyst. He Said he he was a plugged in the most plugged in he took most plugged in bears analysts out of his bio Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's fair. But yeah, he got duped by a fake me and then ever and life's bad journalism. Yeah, very bad journalism. I did see a report today that Roger Del over the weekend, he met with like Illinois state lawmakers. This is what I've been saying for a while, this is what I've been saying. So he's like, get it done. I don't care about the Indiana stuff. Correct. I think the NFL is going to start putting the screws to the bears and be like, what are you guys fucking doing? This is crazy. So, but yeah, this, this whole story, the guy, the guy reported that they were going to be called the Indiana Bears and the entire time he was texting with someone who was claiming to be me who, and I don't know if you guys saw the text messages, but it was like, my fake me was like, just talk to Ryan Poles. Don't want to be associated with the story. So, I'm giving it to you guy I've never talked to. That doesn't make any sense. Yeah. And I also don't, I don't, I can't break news. I don't fucking have news. People will tell me shit. And I still won't say it to anyone because I'm like, I don't know if they talk like, I don't know the rules to journalism. Are you saying that this guy still thinks it was you? No, no, we had him on the deck and we're like, dude, and he was like, yeah, I realized errors of my ways. Yeah, yeah, it was, but there was a time where it wasn't just him. It was other people that thought that was you? No, no, he, he reported it. He was like, I'm calling my shot. Yeah. People picked it up. Then when it was, when, when the Maccassies did their press conference and were like, no new announcement, everyone was like, hey, you're an idiot. And he was like, I think I've been duped. And then he DM me and said, confirm you've been texting me. And I just wrote back, huh? Yeah. And then he realized he had been duped. Yeah. That makes it. It is crazy to think that that was actually used. Yeah. I don't, I, I, being a journalist, being someone who breaks news, it seems like the most stressful job of all time. I'm a fucking idiot. I don't want to have that, I don't want to have that burden of, of having news and being right about that shit. I'm wrong. I think like as a podcast, we're probably like a bunch of 300 hitters, which could get you in the whole thing. But we're wrong so much. I'm pretty right. You're, you're right. That hand thing was definitely right for me. No. But yeah, I, wait, which I just want on the record, if anyone gets a text from a fake me, I am not trying to break any news ever. We've had news. What's crazy about that is like in that situation, you're not even trying to break news. Correct. Yeah. You're, you're telling him to break news. Correct. Yeah. Correct. But I'm not, I will never tell anyone else to break news, either because I don't get news. And if I do get news, I sit on it until I see it. And then I just say my head mentally, Oh, I remember someone, I think told me that. And then I don't say anything about it. And that's how you live your life. Because being a newsbreaker would suck. No offense to those guys, but it would suck. Zach, my who's back of the week is going to be Ian Maccachev today, or Islam Maccachev. My bad, I mixed up the opponents. Yep. Islam defeated or defended his Walter way belt against Ian really, but this who's back is actually about those just a head kick. The head kick is unreal. Oh, I got to see it. And a sobering reminder on why you just can't, you just shouldn't fight guys. This is so wait, are you now our MMA expert, not Hank anymore, not next to what I respected head kick Max hates UFC. No, it is for what it is years and he goes, why are they fighting? Now it yeah, yeah, all right. So yeah, this is why you should just not get into a fight with a guy that has the beard that doesn't connect on in the mustache. Yeah, that's I that's quickly approaching like cauliflower, you're as the two warning signs of do not fight. Yeah, it's anyone who looks like Habib. Yeah, don't fuck with them. He just hit him right on the button. Yeah. You guys see that you guys see that fight of the year in Peru with the fire extinguisher. That was awesome. Oh, the street fight. Yeah, yeah. So sick. Do you think it feels good to connect with a chin kick like that? I think it probably it's like hitting a home run. It's like you don't even feel it. Yeah, yeah, sure. You know that that's a tater. It's pure. Yeah, the head goes with it. Yeah, because you probably break the chin as you kick it. Yeah. So like your foot kicks through the guy's face. That was got to be good feeling. All right, good. Who's back? Good job, boys. Quick one of that's okay. Yeah, hard and he towns. Love wins. Second ring in the same year. Nice. Congratulations. Very wedding. Way to go. What was the first? Right? Come on. Two K names. You know, you know the first one. He's going to get mad at us. No, because he's going to we're going to joke too much that it becomes reality. We're also once the season starts. Right. But like you got if you got to move on, if you put a gun to my head right this second and said, Hasgan Zaga made it to a final four? I think I'd be like, just shoot me because I don't know. I thought we've joked about it so much that I don't know the answer. Max also found out that that Villanova tried to retire Scotty Reynolds the one. So that would make three ones, right? That's pretty cool. What do you mean they tried to? They wanted to. Scotty didn't want his jersey retired. Why? I don't know. He's just like that. Some of my Scotty sources. Should I hurt him? Oh, you have Scotty sources? Fuck yeah. We tie school together. That's right. Fuck yeah. All right. Three ones. Yeah. Not. We retired his jersey number. Yeah. That's respect. Where? To go. It's not like. I don't push. You know, you miss this. Max. It's like a push. You said that you said that Scotty day. I said they should have they should have retired. It wasn't about the ones. Yeah. Because I think he wore number three, right? No, he wore one. I think he wore three in high school. There were three in high school. Okay. Yeah. So they did. So it was about the way he was going to be the third one. He didn't want his jersey retired. I don't know. Well, I think he would have been the second one because he would have gotten it before Jalen Brunson. Yes. Correct. So, but as now he's the third one. As we stand right now, they're right now. It's retired. Yeah. This is again, furthering my point, why no one should ever retire. You could just say you could say Scotty Reynolds is one of them ones. He's no. Well, there's three ones. Yeah. No, he is one of them once. He is one of them once. If it was retired, I think he'd be one of the months. No, he still is one of the ones. He wore the one. I think he's more he's one of them ones. I think he's more one of one than one of them ones because he's the one that didn't get retired. Right. Yeah. Then ones are the ones that got their number retired. The ones that yeah. He's probably a bucket at Hurtin and I. All right. Let's let's go to let's get to programming Farland. Some good idiot jazz. Before we get to Booger, he's brought to you by Shell. I'm going to be honest. I usually don't get excited about loyalty programs. They promise big rewards. And then it's like you actually have to eat 48 pizzas to get one free. So when I heard about the shelf fuel rewards program, I was skeptical. Shock. But here's the thing. It's actually kind of annoyingly practical. You're already getting getting gas. You're already grabbing takeout. You're already buying snacks that you definitely didn't need, but absolutely deserve. With the shelf fuel rewards, you just get rewarded for that. And not in a fake point. You'll never use way. It's actual savings on gas. So the savings stack up. It's not one sad little discount. It's you fill up. You eat your shop and all piles up and you get real savings at the pump. Joining takes less than three minutes in the shell app and you'll save on every fill after that every single one. If you want my recommendation, join the shelf fuel rewards program and save. I was getting gas on Friday. Fill it up the El Camino. It costs pretty penny, but at Shell, it costs cheaper than it did across the street. It's a great program. And if you have the fuel rewards like I do, it's even more savings. So check out the shelf fuel rewards program. Booger's also brought to you by Quervo. When Quervo enters every moment just gets better, you find yourself in the center of the dance floor. You can't help but stand up and high five those around you at the game. Max, what happens? Was the room do? What? What does the room do? Memes, you know what I'm talking about? Do we all just get the same text the same time? That's what happens. And that's Quervo, baby. You stop checking the time. Suddenly small talk escalates to laughing so hard that you can barely catch your breath. That's the Quervo effect. The signal everybody understands a moment that anyone can join in a good time that just grows. All you have to do is keep it Quervo. And now here's Booger McFarland. Okay, we now welcome on a very, very special guest, one of our best friends talking football. And Senior Bull Hall of Famer. Is that correct, Booger McFarland? Are you a Senior Bull Hall of Famer? I did a little little Google congrats on that. How many Hall of Famers are you in? Not many. So when the Senior Bull called, that was a nice little surprise. So did that in Mobile, back in, I want to say that was back in April. So it was pretty cool. Okay. So does that mean that you had like one really good practice? Actually, I think it was the Senior Bull was kind of the launch to a pretty good NFL career. I think I went down for the whole week. I was a Senior Bull captain for for my side. I was the first guy. I want to say I was the first guy from the Senior Bull pick that year, played almost a decade. So Senior Bulls always got a fond, a fond place in my heart because it kind of got things started. The Buccaneers actually coached me in the Senior Bull. And so when the Buccaneers were picking 15, I knew I wasn't getting past 15 based on the relationships that I cultivated that week. That's cool. So before the Senior Bull, where were you expecting to go? I was expecting to go a lot higher. I wanted to be listen. I knew I was good enough to be the first D-Liaman pick. I just didn't know the quarterbacks were going to be viewed as high as they did. So you had Tim Couch, a feelings from me of Donovan McNabb called Pepper and then K-Bing Now. K-Bing Now for me. - Are you kidding me? - I mean, you, all, besides McNabb, like Achilles Smith and Tim Couch. - I mean, jeesh. - Jeesh. - I'm about to. - Jeesh, I know him. - Well, where do you wanna start? We wanna talk all ball, college football and NFL, 'cause you do both. You're one of those guys who was able to do both. So, you know what, let's start with here. Preseason, how much do you actually put into preseason? Or is it, 'cause this is how I've used preseason. It's basically, if your guys look bad, that might be a little bit concerned. If your guys look good, that's how they should look. Like, 'cause they're going against base defenses and they're going against, you know, second stringers, third stringers. So, it's essentially just, don't look awful if you're a, you know, first or second round draft pick. Look, look like you are ready to go for live action. - You know the old saying about preseason that you hear a lot now. It doesn't count, but it matters. I think that's the biggest thing about preseason. It doesn't count, but it does matter. I think overall what you want to see is, you want to see your high-end players come out healthy because you kind of know what they can do already. Like, so I'm not concerned, even though Josh Allen played well a couple of days ago, I'm not concerned with Josh Allen if he did play bad, because I've seen a big enough body of work that I know what Josh Allen can do. I want to see guys that are first, second year, guys are rookies. I want to see the improvement from them. I want to see them take it from the practice field to the game. That doesn't necessarily mean that we're going to win a bunch of preseason games. I just want to see the individual improvement from each and every player. I think that's what I look at it. And sometimes preseason football is not about highlights. You actually have to go back and look at the tape and see who's doing what, like RVL Reese. RVL Reese, I want to say he had one or two titles, but man, he played pretty good as a rookie in his debut. So you got to go back and look at that and just watch the tape. So that's kind of what I look at. The main thing, don't get anybody hurt, especially guys that are shoe-ins to make the team. And then there's always going to be a guy who comes out of nowhere that you had. Even the coaches don't know what his name is. They're like, hey, who's 24? And he makes a name for himself and he makes the team. So if let's say you have a new offensive coordinator and your team starts with four straight three and outs, that's not a concern. That is a concern because if you can't scheme up 10 yards and three plays as a new coordinator against base defenses. And I probably need to, if I'm the head coach, I bring in me and like, hey, everything good. Are you sleeping enough? Tell me what's going on. So it's a bit concerning. >> Yeah. >> Although I'd probably be a little bit more concerned. And this is directly straight towards you, Big Cat. If my head coach/play caller starts saying he wants to average the most points in the league. >> I like that. >> Everybody by 30 points. >> No. >> It's goals, dude. >> It's goals, listen, it's goals, it's balls, but you're starting to write some chips that you better be able to cache, buddy. >> That's what I want. That's what makes Ben Johnson. He puts himself in these spots. He said, he showed up. He said, I fucking hate the Packers. He said, I hate Matt LaFour. Matt LaFour, it's like, I've never met him. That's the kind of stuff he does. >> You ever hear a name small, Miss Small? >> Yeah, I definitely heard that. >> Yeah, all right, so does anyone go four straight three and outs to start the preseason? >> I don't know. I'm looking at the commanders because they have David Blau. First year off as coordinator, he did not go four straight three now. >> Okay, look at like just a random team. >> You asked the question as if somebody went four straight three. >> Well, I'm looking it up to see maybe if there's a team out there, forget. >> We're gonna do our research real quick. >> It's the preseason for podcasters, too. So I don't have this stat right here. Oh, was it, was it, no, it's not the bearers. >> No. >> Would it be the Cowboys? >> No. >> Oh, the Ravens. >> No. >> The team that played the Ravens. >> Who is the Eagles? >> The Eagles played the Ravens. >> Yeah, the Eagles did start four straight three now. The Max is giving thumbs down in the booth right now. >> Is that thumbs down to your offensive coordinator? Or thumbs down to the question? >> Thumbs down to everything. >> Yes, preseason football. All right, so what about Bougard? Are you ready to say apologize to Ty Simpson for trashing that pick? Because he did look good. I know that you're supposed to look up. He looked good in his first preseason game. >> No, I still think it was a bad pick because I still think at some point the Rams are going to look back and wish they had a player that could contribute now this season. And I get it. Like everybody, we are so prisoners of the moment. Like as soon as something happens right now, we're ready to put him in the Hall of Fame. Like this is preseason game one. It is August the 16th. Can we get to Labor Day? Can we get a hamburger on the grill before we start putting everybody in the Hall of Fame? >> Yeah, that's fair. >> I had Carson Beck in the Hall of Fame. And then after I kicked him out and I had Haynes King in the Hall of Fame. And then I kicked Haynes King out. And now I got Ty Simpson in the Hall of Fame. >> Ender Aller. >> Ender Aller, yeah. >> Oh, Drew Aller. If I'm here 6'5, 2'45, one more time, I'm going to cut my limbs up. Like I know, is that how big the guy is? I covered his draft. >> Yeah, it also, it's funny watching preseason. And like I said, to start this interview, you are one of the rare guys who does both college football and NFL. There's a lot of people who only watch college football or only watch NFL. And look, Drew Aller played nice for the Steelers. I watched a lot of Drew Aller Penn State. I won preseason game. Yeah, one preseason game. Isn't going to change my opinion on Drew Aller. I got to see it in a regular season game. >> Drew Aller at Penn State, as the tail goes, he left you desiring more. >> Yes. >> A lot more. >> Yes. >> I mean, a lot more. And again, the best thing I heard about Drew Aller at Penn State was he 6'5, 2'45. >> Yep, wait, how big is he? >> Exactly. >> 6'5, 2'45. >> That should be his nickname, Drew. >> 6'5, 2'45. >> How impressive size. >> Yeah, but we talked, we talked earlier about how you're in the Senior Bull Hall famed. Did they retire your number? >> You know what? I don't think the Senior Bull is going to retire at a number 94. Although it was a really, a really interesting week about retiring numbers. I never thought, I never thought we'd spend the slowest day of the year, which is the day before preseason gains again, talking about retiring numbers on the collegiate level, where there are 100 players on each team, and you only have 100 numbers. >> My two takeaways from this, obviously, I think I don't think that Jayden is being represented in a way that's good for him. And I think that he was surprised by a lot of it. And that's not a good dynamic. I think everybody that's met him to a tee has nothing but good things to say about the guy. He doesn't seem like he's got an ego or that he's the kind of person who would be vindictive. But maybe some people that around him are both of those things. When it comes to the Jersey retirement, my first thoughts were, number one, Brian Kelly told a hilarious amount of lies in this situation. So he lied to Jayden and then he was retiring it. And then he lied to the guy that he was recruiting, saying, you can wear it. And then we got on campus. He goes, actually, no, I'm not letting you wear it. I lied to you about being able to wear it when I was lying to you saying that you were allowed to wear it. So it was like a double lie. And then later on, Brian Kelly's gone. Lane doesn't give a fuck with Brian Kelly promised for cruts. And then the whole concept of retiring numbers in colleges is ridiculous. You're right. And LSU's Jersey policy just says like, yeah, just because we were retired, Jersey doesn't mean that people can't wear it. And then I come to find out that they've got a bunch of jerseys that are unofficially retired at LSU. So the whole discourse is stupid. I'm curious what you think about it and how you think it's actually going to impact anything on the field, either at LSU or in Washington. Well, I think it's going to, I don't think it's going to impact anything at LSU. First of all, I think Lane Kifrin, for the first time, comes out smitten like roses like Lane didn't do anything wrong. All Lane did was say, hey, it was promised to the kid. We're going to give it to the kid end of story. I can't do anything about what happened with the previous staff. So Lane, Lane DJ pick it, come out smitten like roses. That's number one. As far as Brian Kelly, Brian BKD, come back and say, yeah, I said it. So I give him credit for coming out after the fact, even though LSU's given it 54 million. I guess you can say whatever you want to say now anyway, it doesn't matter. As far as the JD Daniels of it all. And you're the perfect person to talk to a PFT. Because the way I look at this is it's a big miscommunication. And once things start going down here, now emotion gets involved. I think nobody has worn the number nine since Joe burrow left. I think there is a, there is an exercise, maybe not an exercise. There is a thought that, hey, unless somebody special enough comes along, we're not going to give the number nine out. And Lane is probably going to adhere to that until he gets a special recruit, which there's a couple of them this year who wants to who want to wear the number nine. And then he'll give it to him. And so I think the fact that nobody's worn the number nine, everybody assumed that this was the highest metrophy thing because of Billy Cannon, because of Joe Burrow and now Jayden Daniels. And I think there may have been the same communication with Jayden. And then Jayden started seeing people wear the number five. And then lack of communication around the number five. I think that if you're Jayden Daniels, and by the way, all the memes on the internet are hilarious. Like, you know, 10 Jayden Daniels touched down like some of the memes that are going on are hilarious online. And it's all fun. But as far as the kid, he's a tremendous kid. I think he's being misrepresented by his personality. People are calling himself, he's not a selfish kid. But this is a classic case of what happens when his team gets involved. And the emotion gets involved. And lack of communication comes up. Because I thought it's fact that you PFT, all right. What's this now? You know the discourse around your quarterback in Washington. It's the same discourse that I hear is the same discourse. the big cat here. So you tell me what's to proceed because I have a perception, what's the perception of your quarterback? Because I think right now it comes out looking worse than it did a week ago. Yeah, it's definitely worse than it did a week ago. I think inside DC and amongst commanders fans, I haven't seen anybody turning on them, but I do see a lot of people saying like, Hey, this is, it's a bad look. And I don't, I also haven't seen anybody actually blaming Jaden for this, which I think is actually correct up to this point. I don't think it's his fault. But if nothing changes in how he's represented, then you can look at any further missteps that he makes me like, well, it's your fault for allowing this to go on. Does that make sense? It makes sense up until a certain point because Jaden is 24 years old, 25, like he's a grown man. Like at some point, you are responsible for the actions of your name. Either you have to be responsible for them or you have to de-denounce whoever is responsible. And I think that's a situation that's kind of going on now. I think like, you know, we can beat around the bush shall we want. Like here's the real cause like we all talk like the perception is that his team, quote unquote, his mother and the agent are kind of spearheading all this. Like, let's just be real about this. That's the perception online. That's the perception out there. I don't know that to be fat. If it is, we have a spearheading this whole thing about the Jersey needs to take ownership, take responsibility and then move forward because allowing it to just sit there, he's become somewhat of a punching bag and the kid isn't that. He's a tremendous kid. He did tremendous things in LSU. He's going to be remembered as one of the greatest players that ever came to LSU. And I think that's the way he should be remembered. And right now, some people are forgetting that based on everything that's going on right now. I get it. It's just it's just kind of a moment in time. I don't like the way it's being represented. I also don't like the way his team is representing him in a lot of these situations. Yeah. It's preseason for moms too. They got to figure it out just like the rest of us out there. I think that ultimately you're right. I think that it's a tough situation for Jaden. If it's his mom representing him because obviously it's your mother. You love your mother. You have a deep relationship there and you don't want to like, you know, fracture that based on a business thing. But that's kind of what you choose when your mother becomes your agent. And she is like, she's a certified agent. So she is working for him as an employee right now. But at some point you have to, you know, I think it's unfair that people say like Jaden needs to have a word with. He needs to talk to his mom. He needs to fire his mom. That's a tough situation for a 24 year old kid to be in. I think that her friends, if she has any friends out there, her friends need to step in and talk to her about it before the impetus becomes like on your son because now it has. I guess now it has because if he doesn't make a change or things don't change, then yeah, it's not like he didn't have any heads up about it. So at this point, it's like, you need to know that this is exposing you to liability. And it's hurting your brand. If you have somebody that's making these kind of decisions like this for you. And by the way, just to lighten up a little bit like, do you really like are we really dead tied to like numbers? Like I was 94 at LSU. I got to the pros. Somebody had 94 and they said, Hey, Bull, I'll give it to you for 25 grand. I was like screw you, baby, I'm going to 92. Like I'm not, I'm not gonna pay 25,000 dollars just to wear a number. I'll just go to the next number. Yeah, he'll change his number when he got to the pros. Just keep an eye on how he's like, he's been in the post for a lot longer. I have a compromise. I have a compromise here. Let's retire at LSU. How about we retire the Jane Daniels jersey? So nobody else named Daniels is allowed to wear number five. I don't think you even want to do that. There's a siso. It'll never be. It'll never be Daniels five. What if there's a sick five star recruit? What do you do? His first initial dot Daniels. And then the five got it. We can do that. What was it? Okay. Yeah. Jay Daniels. That's fine. Yeah, just no Daniels five. That's the Jersey. No one's will listen. It's, it's kind of a weird thing in college football because there's only so many numbers and there's so many college guys on each team. I always thought you can retire the number. Excuse me. You can retire the Jersey, but not the number. So other words, I'm, I'm going to take, I'm going to retire the number five with Daniels on it, but I'm not going to retire the number because, no, if every great player, I give you a prime example. I give you an LSU. So Billy Cannon, Bert Jones is next. After Bert Jones, here's, here's the pecking water before we get to Joe Burrow or Jane Daniels. You ready? Glendorcy that may be the most decorated defensive linemen in the history of college football. He won the outland, the, the lambarded and the girls. He's in the college football Hall of Fame. He was the first round graphic. He was first team all American blah, blah, blah. His numbers not retired to LSU. Andy won a national championship. All right. Kevin Fall, maybe the most important recruit in the history of LSU. All right. His jersey is not retired. So I think before we get to Joe Burrow and Jane Daniels, like there's a pecking order, just like I'm sure at every college, there's a pecking order that you have to get to. And I think LSU is just a little bit behind right now. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So this course is so stupid. I'm ready to move on from it. Okay. Quick break from burger to talk to you guys about Lucy.

Back to burger McFarlane. I got a question for you about college football. So teams that I've fallen in love with. There's some obvious ones. Oregon is obviously up there. Everyone's talking about, you know, they're bringing everyone back. You thought I love really easy too, by the way. Wow. You should do everything back. Right. I mean, I guess it's a big question for Dan landing. I let me let I'll start with this. Can Dan Lening get over that hump because he has he has done a great job at Oregon, but they have they have also been in big college football playoff games where they've gotten a little bit embarrassed. They got embarrassed by Ohio State was a two years ago. They got embarrassed by Indiana this year. So those big moments, those big games that they have to step up to have have have been fleeting for Dan Lening so far and I love Dan Lening. He his his pre game speech when Oregon played Colorado. I still play that back in my head. Yep. You know, you know, we're playing for something they're playing for clicks. It's still one of the greatest pre game bills ever. Yep. I think the biggest issue with Dan Lening is this in the biggest games against teams that have equal talent. They aren't physical enough. All right. So he's brought everything from Georgia to Eugene. I think except the level of physicality that that is that is required and it's going to be required when you face the big the biggest and best teams. And I think that's the biggest issue for Dan Lening. Now, I'll give him credit. They keep knocking at the door. They keep putting themselves in position. But you watched the Indiana game last year. Yeah. Yeah. Don't say more than play well, but there was a level of physical ity that Indiana brought to Oregon that I don't think Oregon was expecting. So I agree. I think if we're doing this on quote unquote, let's go first date to marriage as far as how how how much I believe in in these teams. I think Dan Lening and Oregon are probably somewhere. We've been dating for a couple of years. I'm not I'm not ready to marry them, but we're past the first date and we're nowhere near marriage yet. Okay. Okay. All right. So I mean, yeah, I think Oregon's be really good. The team though that and I'm not going to say they've been forgotten because they are, you know, the best team in the last 10 years if you'd go resume. But I think Georgia is going to be sick this year. I think their defense is going to is returning a bunch of guys. They couldn't they couldn't rush the past or last year, but they could they could stop the run. I think that will come. And that's the team where it's like it's again, it's not like Georgia's been forgotten, but a lot of fanfare has been made about archmaning in Texas. And they're going to win the SEC. And it's like hold on a second. I'll take Kirby smart in a big game. And yeah, they got like, like I said, with the defense, like turned out, Chambers ate them alive in that playoff game. But I do think that they're going to have those growing pains. They got a lot of guys who are going to be in their second and third years where their defense is going to look a lot better in that nasty like we are going to punish you. Georgia defense that won them the national titles. No question. And on the scale of first day to marriage, I'm engaged to Georgia. I got I'm truly engaged because I think that gunner Stockton is underrated to your point. The defense was young. Those guys are going to come back when you talk about Ellis Robinson, KJ Bowden to the best secondary guys in the country. Up front, Elijah Griffin, maybe the best defensive tackle in America. They're going to run the football. They're going to control the line of scrimmage. Everybody makes a big deal about the lack of wild receivers. They don't even think about it. They're going to run you clean up out of your building. So I like what Georgia's done. And in an era where some teams have 60 transfer players. Georgia only has 10. So the culture of the Bulldogs is still there. They recruit, they develop all those guys or Georgia guys through and through. So yeah, they're going to be right there. I would definitely pencil them into the playoff. Yep. All right. Who are you married to? I'd be married today to Notre Dame. Okay. I think Notre Dame is as legit as anybody out there. I think the quarterback is phenomenal. I think they can run the football. I think the defense is going to be nasty because they can play man coverings. They got the best secondary in the country. I think Marcus Freeman, obviously, Lane Kifrin was standing because I got to love my coach. I think Marcus Freeman is the best coach in America as far as this is concerned. You know, some coaches are play callers, some coaches are some coaches are recruiters, some coaches are motivators. He's the best combination of it all. He's young, he's good looking, he can relate to the kids. Like he's a motivator. He's a defensive guy. Like he can do it all. Like the kids don't call him coach free when they call him free. They just say, hey, like free. That's a guy you can talk to. Like I'm going to talk to free and see what's up. Not coach free, just free. So I love Notre Dame. CJ Carr is probably the most underrated quarterback in the country. Everybody's talking about arch and Dante. And the guy that likes to gamble a lot and Brendan Sores being Sam Levitt and Lenora Sellers and all these quarterbeds. Nobody talks about CJ Carr. He's awesome. He's awesome, dude. He's awesome. I love the I love the saving for saving private around here. I thought that he has. I love it. Like it's awesome. And and their schedule is easy, which hurts me because they open the season with Wisconsin. But I have to say it, like their schedule, they should not. Now it's a blessing and curse because their schedule is easy. They should be able to to rattle off 11 wins. But like what happened last year, if they trip up twice, they won't have a lot to make up. They won't have those quality wins down the stretch to make up for. But I think they're going to win 11 games. And I think they'll be in the playoffs. And I agree. CJ Carr, like that, his his loss, his opening of the last season, the loss against Miami. That's when I was like, holy shit. Like I know they lost the game. I was like, this kid is doing this on the road against some really nasty defense. And he's like, he's not scared at the moment. I think they're a really, really good team. And I love Marcus Freeman. It's just if she bring up Wisconsin really quick. And I don't need a long answer. Are we concerned? Are we concerned about looking for a new coach after the season? I mean, how could you not be? I like Luke fickle. I think he knows it. We had him on a couple of weeks ago. He said the hot, the seed is hot. Like he knows it. He's not running from it. He's very open about it. He knows what that they have to deliver this year. I think the defense is going to be really good. It's like, can the quarterbacks stay healthy? We've lost our quarterback, three straight years. And I know you don't make excuses in football, but he's gone back to the identity of Wisconsin where it's like, we need that we need the offensive line. We need to be able to run the ball. We need to place doubt defense. None of this air raid shit. So I'm excited for the season. I'm excited for the season. And the schedule is not as hard as it's been because last year, I think we had the worst schedule in the country, which that that's part of that's part of college football now is basically the schedule. God's like one year. You're going to have it one year. You're not one year. You're going to have to go like three or four. You know, you're going to have to go to Austin. You're going to have to go to to Athens. You're going to have to go to the swamp. And then the next year, it's like, oh, shit. We don't have to do all those. So it really does feel like year to year when it comes to the scheduling. Easy on easy on the swamp. The swamp's not ready to be in that conversation to shit. They might be tough on this year. Thank you. They're getting better. I love co-sumeral. I like what he did at Tulane down in New Orleans. I like trust me. They're going to be good. Just not yet. As far as the other team that I that I think deserve to be in the conversation, the team that I'd marry, oh, how state. I think the schedule is what it is. I think I got not surprised for you to be out like USC. Okay. I'm not ready to marry USC, but we are engaged. That's hot. Yeah. Super, I mean, super, super warm. It's not hot. And I think Lincoln knows it. I think this is the most talented he's had. I love the quarterback they have out there. The key with Lincoln, man, is Lincoln has got to evolve. Lincoln was still running the same place he ran at Oklahoma five years ago at USC. He's got to evolve. And I think he has. The defense is going to be really good. I think what Coach Patterson, I'm just looking forward to seeing him because the knock on him is when you get him in a big game in a big situation, then he doesn't always show up. And so I want to see what Lincoln Raleigh does. But other than that, I think you get past those top teams or how state, I think Texas, I put Texas in that category, Notre Dame. Then I think you have to get right there. Indiana, I need to see what Josh Hoover is. Yeah. Like Josh Hoover, Indiana. I hear it. It's like Bigfoot. I've heard a lot of Biden, but I need to see him on a big stage and see him against some top level competition that's not TCU. But if he is as advertised, Indiana is going to be right there. So then you got Indiana, you got Oklahoma, you got all like Oklahoma. Oklahoma is one of those teams that they're schedule sucks. But that geometry is really good. And and that defense is nasty stuff. Okay, stop. Stop right there. I'll agree with you. The defense is nasty. John Mathier. Yes. Free incredible hook. John Mathier was really good. How do we feel about John Mathier? Now that he's gone. Oh, David, man, I don't know. CJ car did that. Julian saying looks like he put on muscle. All these guys are putting on some muscle. Yeah. But Mathier looks like he looks like he's been doing instead of four sets of bench. He did six. Okay. All right. So here would be my reply to that. John Mathier, I think is very, very good. He got obviously the thumb injury. He probably came back too early last year with the thumb injury. If you watched him at wazoo, he was electric at wazoo. I think that the I think Oklahoma knows, John Mathier knows that like for Oklahoma to be their offense to go to that next level. John Mathier is going to have to take the beating. And he is electric with his feet. He's really good at like, he's not the fastest guy. He's not going to be a little more Jackson, but he can get you those yards. And he's a good runner. And I think he probably put on the weight being like, Hey, this is the SEC. This isn't this isn't the pack 12 anymore. Like this is the SEC. I'm going to get beat up. I got to be ready to get beat up and be able to withstand the season. I did think through the first month of the season. He was putting up video game numbers. Yeah. He was my early early front runner for the Heisman. And so and then obviously got got injured and he didn't come back and play well. So I agree with you. I've never seen a good quarterback. And maybe that's just a professional level. And so this is this is kind of one of those instances where me covering both is kind of coming in. So on the college level, it may be okay. But I usually don't see really good quarterbacks throwing the football like be really muscular. Like you don't want your quarterbacks muscular. You want him nice and loose and linear and not, you know, yoked up. But we'll see. Teebo. Teebo. Checkmate. Okay. Just say checkmate. Just say checkmate. You just I know you disrespected Gators. Oh, the swan side. That good. Teebo was a Heisman trophy winner. He was maybe the best college quarterback of all time. Okay. Maybe checkmate. Let me ask you a question about about Penn State. Will there be a time this year where we look at Penn State and we say I wonder if they miss James Franklin. Yes, I do think so because I do think they're going to take a little step back because here's what you have to ask yourself because it's basically Iowa State. What is that? I'm geographically challenged. So is that Iowa State? That's North. So it's going to be Iowa State North basically because here comes Matt Campbell and he brings what? I think it's East, right? Yeah, yeah. Iowa State East. Okay, I'll give you that one. Yeah, Iowa State East and yeah, not really North, but that's fine. Okay. North East. Okay. I do think that those players, I like Rocco bet. I think Rocco bet is really good. I just wonder how we would view this team. If I told you, Iowa State went to the big house to take on Michigan or Iowa State was going to Columbus because essentially, and I know it's not the same. I was the apples, but you're going to have the Iowa State brand wearing a Penn State uniform. And so I think at some point that's going to factor. I like Matt Campbell, AKA Andrew Lucklite. Like I love Matt Campbell. He looks just like Andrew Luck. That's my do. Really good coach. I thought he should have left Iowa State several years ago. He was that good. But to your point, to the question, is there going to come a point when they look back? And it may not be this season. Maybe it's after three seasons when you look back and Iowa State, they go eight and four, nine and three, eight and four, you're going to yearn for the 10 and two seasons of James Franklin. Yeah. So maybe that maybe because James Franklin was good for 10 wins a year. He just couldn't be the Iowa State. And every now and then he couldn't be Michigan. Like he just couldn't win the big one. But he could we could be there, but he could wipe the floor with Wisconsin and all these other schools, but he just couldn't be win those two games. So maybe not this year, but maybe in three years when you look back and say, let's look at the first three years of Matt Campbell. James Franklin wasn't so bad. It's southeast. It's not. No, it's not. I'm looking at it. It's got to be Noah. No, I mean, it's Ames, Iowa is is is more north than than state college. It's directly East. And it's a little touchdown. I'm just going to call it North. I'm going to I'm going to stay with Booger on this. Okay, it sounds better. That's fine. That's fine. Eat whatever. I told you I was originally sounds. Hey, I got I got I got a bone to pick with you. You you said you didn't like the Kyle Pitz contract. It sounds like you don't understand the type of player the Kyle Pitz is going back to the NFL. Oh, actually hold on. Do you not like the contract because it wasn't long enough because that would be fair because I don't know if you know this fact, but Kyle Pitz has added exactly one touchdown to his total every single year that he's been the NFL his first year he scored one touchdown second year two third year three fourth year four fifth year five. If they had locked him up for their 10 years, we're talking about a 15 touchdown year for the tight end. Yeah. Okay. And that's how we're going to view it then maybe how should you view it? It's we got five years. He's going to have six touchdowns next year, booker seven. Then you're after that eight the year after that. You've locked him up. That's some pretty good production from your tight end position. Here's how I would view it. Think about to take the money away. And let's just spit ball between us. Let's name the best tight ends and football. You ready? Let's go. Trades McBride. Uh Kittle. Come on. Help me out here. Kyle Pitz in 2030. Colston, Loveland. Yeah. Colston, Loveland. Um, Travis Kelsey. If he's lubed up and warmed up, like you know, I mean, all right. All right. Brock Bauer. How far Brock Bauer's for sure. Exactly. How far do we get before we get to Kyle Pitz? That's my, that's, that's my point. I think he's probably an unlubed Travis Kelsey. I just, I'd still take Travis Kelsey over Kyle Pitz. Loved up Travis Kelsey. Yes. But unlubed Travis Kelsey. Not nice and warmed up. If he's nice and warm and he's gone out and and strict the muscles and he's nice and and nice and hot up. Like I'm taking Travis Kelsey. Right. So yeah. But I mean, I liked it. I like Kyle Pitz. He hasn't been a generational talent, which is what we sit, what we were told he was going to be. He was six, six and 240. He's a little taller than the quarterback. True Allen. Much faster to say much faster. But he was supposed to be, like he was supposed to change the game, match up nightmare. And I'm always concerned about this. I'm always concerned about guy who has his best year in a contract year. Always concerned. It always concerns him. Fair. That is fair. Because that does happen. And then you're like, oh, shit, we just paid for it. It's like, oh, I got paid. I'm not going to have, I'm not going to be as good anymore. But he also has not had the best, like, I'm in the best quarterback situation. I don't know. Great moments. Great moments last year. I was going to change this year. Yeah. That's true. That's my point. As I started to say that, I was like, wait, dude, Chua might be like playing significant snaps for the Falcons this year. It's like, well, maybe I still think Pentex has a shot at it. But he, well, I guess if he is, if it's ACL, perfect. Yeah, he hasn't played. Yeah, twos. Yeah. Okay. I take it back. You're right. Good point. What do you think about the quarterback? Two quarterback competitions. Kyla Murray beats out nine JJ McCarthy. And then whatever's happening, whatever you want to call it in Cleveland, I don't know if it's quarterback, whatever it is. What are your thoughts on those? So Kyla Murray beat out two people. He beat out JJ McCarthy. And then he beat out the open ego nine. Just so nine is good. JJ JJ sucks. I've been very clear. But but nine is the best quarterback. JJ is terrible. The alter ego nine is something that like, like once he gets going, like I saw him, well, I saw him one time and that was Monday night in Chicago. I think it was Monday night in Chicago. Big yeah. We saw nine. Come up. Yeah. Second day. He was great. Other than other than that, we didn't see a whole lot of nine. Here's what I would say. Here's my rule of thumb. If you are an incumbent player and they bring in another player, it's your position to compete that you've already lost the job. I don't care whether that's quarterback, running back, left tackle, whatever. If you are an incumbent, Michael Pinnix, JJ McCarthy, and they bring in somebody else to compete at that position, you've already lost the job. Because if the organization had faith in you, you don't bring in competition. So I we all said Kyla Murray is going to win the job. I think Deshaun Watson's going to win the job. I think to talk about law is going to win the job because they brought in, like Watson was already there, but the other two situations being they brought in someone to compete with the incumbent and I think that person's going to win the job. I think Collar opens up another dimension for the Minnesota offense. Not just with his legs. I was I was talking to somebody who happened to go to practice. They said that you'd be surprised how much Collar plays on time. Like he's not as much of a run-around guy as you think. Yes, he does. He turns into the role runner at some point. But he plays in the pocket a lot more than you think. As far as Deshaun Watson, I mean, if I had sunk, what is it? It was a 243. He's got 46. So they've almost paid up 200 million. And he's probably played 12 games. When you want to get something out of the 200 million, you pay the guy and you owe him 46 more. Like I'm going to put him on a field. At some point, this is economics. If we're not going to be good anyway, we trade the way Miles Garrett. I'm going to put Deshaun Watson on the field. He's going to start the season. And I'm going to at least get four games out of him or that way I can feel good about paying him all this money. And if he sucks, then we go to Shredor Sanders. And it's over. If he doesn't suck, then maybe we catch lightning at a bottle this year because Cleveland's defense is still legit. Yep. The defense is still good. I think some of the young playmakers that they have conceptions, Judy, Dylan Samson, like they have some playmakers. I think the Cleveland Browns could be, I don't hate to say this, but I'm going to say it. I think the Browns could be the surprise of the AFC because I think Deshaun Watson, I think Watson's going to wind up being better than people think. Wow. Because what you described, we might as well put the guy out there and play because we paid it. That's the sunk cost fallacy. That's like, I would do the same thing too. But I think most good teams wouldn't, right? Like most teams that wouldn't, it's really teams that would never find themselves in that predicament to begin with. But like just because you're paying the guy a lot of money, we've seen a lot from him. Now we were just talking about the other week. Like he was legitimately a top five quarterback in the NFL when he was in Houston. So that does have to be in somewhere legit top five. I'll never forget watching him and the post game press conference when a reporter asked him a question about some coverage. And he did tell the coverage like like paid manning does on Monday night on the manning cast. Like he was talking about the safety and cover three and all this and I'm like, man, that dude is on it. And like we all know his ability to run. I just remember the shone watcher that Clemson man. Like he was like he used to wheel his team to win. Now I know there's a lot this transpire since then. But sometimes you can turn back the hands of time. I hope I hope he turns back the hands of time. If not for this season, just for a moment where people like us who talk have to come on this microphone and say, man, it's shone watching. Not bad. Is that a massage parlor? That's a good name for one. And time would be good. Yeah. All right. Time to turn back the hands of time. I got a segue for you that kind of works. If we're talking NFL and we'll do this quickly because there's been awesome burger. We always appreciate your time. I team. You mentioned the AFC. From my perspective, it's like the NFC is so loaded at the top. And they're the rams are going to be really, really fucking good. The sea oxygen be really, really good. The NFC north this whole other as a whole, I think it's like I think the lions are going to have a great bounce back here. I think there's just a lot of the AFC has more question marks and more teams that's like, it kind of feels like anyone can grab it. I think I'm buying stock in the Texans because I honestly think that defense is so good. It was so nasty down the stretch that if CJ Stroud can just be like a little bit better than average. He doesn't have to be what he was in his first year. He just needs to just not be as bad as he was last year. That could be just a dangerous, dangerous team. Do you think CJ Stroud can somehow, has he hit rock bottom? Is he going to come back and maybe get back to more of what he was to start his career? I think that's the hope of the Texans. But I do think there's some doubt there because they haven't paid him a contract, right? Yeah. Like all the other quarterbacks after the third year got in their contract. But the two quarterbacks that we have quarter, quote, doubt it and haven't. CJ Stroud and Bry's young. Like typically you get rewarded after your third year and those guys haven't. If CJ Stroud would have played like his rookie year last year, Texans go to the Super Bowl last year without a shadow without. Texans go to the Super Bowl and take on Seattle. And then I think that defense, it would have been a battle of two of the best defenses we've seen. Your right big cat, their defense is nasty. It's legit. Two questions for the Texans. Can they run the football? All right, because Joe Mixon. He didn't play last year. I think he's out this year. May have to retire. They traded for David Montgomery. They want to be more physical. I love what they're doing there. How much does Montgomery have to be the feature back without Jamir Gibbs and Detroit? And then CJ Stroud. If you tell me CJ Stroud was going to throw for 3528 touchdowns and four picks, you can pistol them into the AFC title game. Yeah. You can pistol me because I think that team is that team is that talented. The problem is we just don't know. Yeah. Yeah. But I do think they're going to be able to run the ball better. I mean, remember, they kind of just, they threw away their entire offensive line two years ago. They, you know, with the moves they made. And so now you're getting back to hopefully they fixed it a little bit. But I, I just think that defense is so good. And we just, the way they went out in the playoffs was so, so pathetic that it's like, oh, How are they going to ever, you know, but up into that point, everyone's like, the Texans could be in the soup bowl because of that defense, just C.J. Shroud. He just sucked. So I'm asking a question, who would you have more confidence in next year? C.J. Shroud or Trevor Lawrence, if I told you, you could have one next year, which one you take. Trevor, I'd say Trevor, I think Liam Cohen's done a great job with him. Yeah, I think that that relationship is going to continue to develop. And I don't know if C.J. is going to get back to where he was this rookie year. Yeah, I would take Trevor just because of the offensive coordinator continuity, like Liam Cohen's there. And, you know, Jimmy Cohen's an unbelievable coach, but he's a defensive coach. And I always kind of go towards the quarterbacks that get an offensive mind as their head coach, because you know, even if they trade out offensive coordinators, that's still going to be there. You know, like Kyle Shanahan is still going to be there. Shawnee Bay is still going to be there. You have that continuity year after year. I think I would agree with you because of the Liam Cohen factor. And I think we just saw how much, how big of a difference Liam made. And if you go back two years ago, think about the questions we were having about Trevor Lawrence. It just shows you. Yeah. Like, I think C.J. Miss Bobby Slok a little bit. I do. I think the revolving door coordinator has kind of heard him in Liam Cohen. Look at what Liam did with Baker and look at Baker last year without Liam and look at what Liam did with Trevor and think about Trevor the year before with no Liam. So I think that's a good point. You may. Okay. Let me ask you this, Booger. If you had to pick one of these two guys, C.J. Stroud or Jackson Dart, who would you go with? Why are we saying that Jackson Dart is going to be healthy for a 60 for 17? It's a question. Yeah. I mean, he's out there getting himself hurt and preseason. He's to the blue tent. Yeah. Already. Well, first of all, I tweeted this out earlier. Jackson is before though, why does he get, why does he go into blue tent? Hey, big fella. Here's a, here's the news flash. When you get hit, don't lay on the ground on the ball like something's wrong. Back up. And they will send you to the blue tent. So my means to tell them that, I think because of the injury factor, I will go C.J. Stroud and I'd be, like, I'd really be nervous every week. Yeah. Yeah. All right. I got one last question. It's actually going to be from Zach. I don't know if you ever talked to Zach, Booger. Robac question. R-H-O-B-A-C-K dot com promo code. Take 20% off your first purchase. Q-zips, polos, hoodies, joggers shorts, rowback dot com promo code. Take. By the way, Booger, you know that you are on the cover of our book that is out on Tuesday. So that's how much we love you. Oh. And by the way, I see you guys have the shirts. I need a shirt. I mean, do they run small or big, but first of all, I put on an XL and then I sat down and I switched to a 2 XL. This is a medium. Okay. So, so here's what I need. If you can wear an XL, if you can wear an XL, if you're in a 2 X, I need a 2 X team. All right. Hey, Booger. You're on the front cover by the way. You are your sandwich between what a group. It is Tim Woods to your right, Mark Schlerath above you and then Kyle Long below you. It's pretty good. That's a pretty good spot. I'm kind of offensive lineman. Yeah. He's our dungeon master from Dungeons and Dragons. He's actually the coolest of the four of you. I love it, man. Hey, you know, guys, you know how I feel about I appreciate you putting on the book. I can't wait to get my t-shirt and a copy of the book. I'll send you one. You got to send you one. Yeah. All right. So, Zach, you have the robot question for Booger. How are you doing, sir? I did have a quick question. We were recently at the Big Ten media day. The energy and kind of the moxies, some of those coaches are walking around with. It felt like a confirmation that the Big Ten has stolen the SEC. They've now, but it felt like they've become the SEC almost. And I was wondering if you had any, uh, any pointers on how the SEC can get back to being the SEC because their entire swag has been stolen. Yeah. So, first of all, I wouldn't go that far, big fellow. Let's back off of that a little bit. That's, you know, uh, as far as the swag of being stolen, you don't, you don't, you don't become the dominant conference of a century almost and then all of a sudden get your swag or stolen. Three. Yeah. You've got it stolen. Three. Okay. Okay. Okay. No problem. It's true. It's been stolen. It's been stolen. The fact that you even have to address that it's been stolen means it's been stolen. You're at the point in the crime where we're not ready to call it a theft yet. It's just the big team is a person of interest right now. Okay. Let's just leave it at that. Okay. Okay. So, here's the thing I'll say, the transfer portal in the NIL has leveled the playing field and what Indiana has done and what Michigan did and what the house state has done has been absolutely phenomenal. And I think the, the adjustment hasn't quite been made in the SEC. I think going to the nine game schedule is going to hurt the SEC and it would surprise me if the SEC doesn't want to championship this year. I think Notre Dame is the best team in the country and that is a lot of good teams, but I told you I married Notre Dame right now. That's how much I believe in them. I do think if you're the SEC though, if you're curvy and you're lame and you're rent venables and you're some of these coaches that have that, see the SEC was about Moxie at one point, like Spurrier, Urban Meyer, Nick Saban, like these were coaches that got to the podium. They didn't just win. They got to the podium. They had swag, like they talk to talk at the podium, like Signetti right now. Signetti is that dude because he stepped up to the podium and he says, well, son is mine because he knows his team will back it up. Like I think before we, before the, we in the SEC give back to the championship level, we got to get our swag back at the podium. And that means curvy, that means lane, that means p-goating, that means Josh Hyppel, that means Brett Venables, that means Sart, like we started to see that this summer a little bit, right? Sart was popping out for a little bit, all right? We saw, we go in and pop off for a little bit, like that's what the essence, when we knew we were the big dog, everybody knew we were the big dog, we're going to get back to that again. When Ben Johnson does it, you don't like it. But that's pro football. Just said, he talked a little talk. He talked a little shit and then he went back it up and beat the packers in the playoffs. It's okay for Ben Johnson to not like Matt LaFlore and to talk shit to Matt LaFlore, but you better be careful. Hey, you better be careful when you start talking shit to everybody else in the national football mix. Like the Seattle Seahawks. Oh, the McVeigh coaching tree's going to come for him. Oh no, what are they going to do? Give him a hard handshake. It's amazing how your demeanor has changed. No, I'm just saying, no, when you listen, I think the Bears can miss the playoffs this year, but I liked that Ben Johnson has this shit to him. He's like, I'm not scared of everyone. Let's go back four years ago when the Bears sucked. You didn't even want to talk about the Bears. I agree. But that was Matt LaFlore. Ben Johnson's changed my life. I know. And now all of a sudden, you want to talk shit and you're good when I come to him. I didn't talk to shit. I listen, I'm scared about the Bears. Have a tough schedule. I like I said, I already said the Lions are going to be good this year. Like the Lions of the team that everyone forgot about they lost a lot of close games last year. I think the Lions are going to be really good. Anything can happen to NFL. I would prefer, though, a coach that talks a little shit and has that like swagger, like you said, the SEC needs to get back. Has that shit to him? Like fuck everyone. I'm here to win games and win like win them convincingly versus a coach. Like a Madieber Fluss or a Madenegu is a nice guy to everyone. I'm going to see exactly how you feel about the Bears. Number of wins that you would be, that you would not be disappointed with for your Chicago Bears. Give me a number out of 17. I think they got to win 10 games because that seems like the playoffs. So I think it's the playoffs. You got to get back to the playoffs. 10 and seven. You're good. Yeah, because I think there's there's a way you could be a 10 and 17 and be a good team. Like there's that like given your schedule, you could be a good team at 10 and seven. You could get the playoffs. It's really not number of wins get to the playoffs. Get back to the playoffs. TFT, I'll ask you the same question and I'm sure there can't be a five in it. So tell me the number of wins that the that the commandos could get where you wouldn't be disappointed. I got too much respect for this league, Booger, to guarantee any win. We're taking a day by day. Well, I didn't get to take a day. I didn't get to take a day. You want respect for the National Football League? I didn't get to tell you. I'm going to call it the National Football League and not the NFL. Oh, you can't. You got to. You got to. You want to respect for this league, Booger. Too much respect for that. Are you kidding me? No, I think I think I'm going to put it out playoffs. No, but would it, whatever it takes to get to the playoffs, anything less than that will be disappoint. So if it's nine and eight, we get to playoffs. I'm fine. Huh? I hate you. Okay. Yeah. On record, both of y'all. That's all I feel. I'll be disappointed if the Bears don't make the playoffs. Absolutely. And if the commanders don't make the playoffs, Dan Quinn, see you later. That's just how it's going to be. I like him as a person. I like him as a coach. But the hot seat is very much there for Dan Quinn because if it doesn't happen this year, then you know they're going to try to hire some like a hot shot offensive mind to work with Jade. If the Bears don't make the playoffs, Ben Johnson is still a genius. I'll figure out who else to blame. You just opened up a whole conversation really quick. Coach is going into the season on the hot seat. Dan Quinn, Aaron Glenn, probably Todd Bowles. Yep. Who else? Definitely. Shane Steinkin. Um, uh, we like, uh, Floriel put Harbaugh on there, which was crazy to me, but he didn't know. And Siri, he's got to be on there just because it's Philadelphia. Oh, you, yeah, and that's a crazy situation. He, I've never seen a coach who gets less credit for going to two Super Bowls and win one that he does. She's a good coach, but you know that he'll be on the hot seat if it doesn't go well. Right. So who are we missing? Anybody? Oh, do we say time for the season? Tom Bowles is fired. Yeah. I said, I said Bowles. I said Glenn. We said Shane Steinkin. We said, uh, Dan Quinn, who else? I think that's about it. That's probably. I'm trying to think. I don't know for a coach. No. Yeah. All the ones they, they were a lot last year. Yeah. There was 10 last year. Yeah. Yeah. There was 10. Oh, Zach Taylor. Zach Taylor would definitely be on the whole team. Yeah. He might be going by mid-season. I, I, I, Zach Taylor is a good coach, but I, I, he would definitely be on the hot sea because it feels like the whole Bengals, you know, situation is there. And, but you're familiar with Joe Brady, given his, uh, some of his work at LSU, one of the national team, the chip team. Um, what do you expect for him as a head coach? I feel like basically what I, what I expect is like just a lot of the same offensive stuff for Josh. I don't think much is going to change, but I don't know, like they're going to miss some of that defensive shit that they had doing because say what you want about the guy, but they had a good defensive head coach. So I don't, I don't know what the team identity's going to be like with Joe. So Joe Brady took over for Sean McDermott for two reasons, one because he was a really good offensive coordinator and really good with the quarterback. So that has to continue. But the second reason he took over because the defense needed to become more aggressive. So bring in Jim Leonard and how he's a defensive coordinator. And here's the thing about Buffalo. Buffalo won 10, 11, 12, 13 games every season. They got into postseason every year. It is literally Super Bowl or bus. I don't think I've ever seen a situation where a head coach was a rookie head coach and the only thing that he could do to say it was a successful season is get to the Super Bowl. I can't think of another coach. And Joe Brady, because of the success that Sean McDermott had, is in that situation that if they don't go to the Super Bowl, they don't have to win it, but Buffalo at least has to get there. Anything less, it's a failure. And you fire Sean McDermott, I think a couple of years maybe too soon. Hmm. Hmm. Okay. I would have said maybe the other way around because the, he's a great coach, but the sad losses were just piling up. And to an extent, that has to affect you on a personal level. Yeah. It affects you on personal level. But I mean, in order to advance, you got to get there. He got them there a lot. Yeah. And sometimes the ball just doesn't bounce your way, man. And so now they, you know, the Pagula family has put and Brandon being has put Joe Brady in this situation. It's Super Bowl and bus man, really. I can't think of another coach who was a first year coach who that was the only thing he could do to be successful. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. No, it's true. It's a good point. All right, book. You're the best. We will send you a book. We love having you on. We'll see you again in a, in a month or so once football is going.

Okay, before we do Mount Rushmore, I have some breaking moves. Breaking moves. I would like to officially disavow the meaning of Jayden Daniels. Okay. What? Because I saw one that's like it's too far. It's not the Chicago Fire said don't tell Jayden Daniels, but that's five in a row for the fire. Come on, man. MLS, we can't do it. That's just too much. You're just bad. We can't. You want us to get to MLS. We've gone too far. So I'm on your PFT. I am now standing. I will hold a pitch fork with you hand in hand and be like, hey, no more of that. I think it's just like when the brands get too involved in it, that's that's what MLS is too far. You can't have MLS being fun to your quarterback. Yeah. They wouldn't know what it's like to win a real trophy to begin with. That's crazy. I actually just have actually take, I say, I say me, I say me my way. I would, I would be making all the jokes if it wasn't my quarterback, but because that's how, so this is how American sports fandom works. If it's a team that you root for, you dive really into the minutia of it and you discover why it's actually not as bad as everybody's saying. When it's a team that you root against, you don't care about any details. Correct. And you're like, ah, this is funny for me to laugh at. I'm just sometimes you got to be on the, ah, on the shit into that stick. Sometimes you're the hammer, sometimes you're the nail. Yep. We have some serious breaking moves. Oh, breaking, serious. You're going to look this way. This is very close to you, big cat. Dance, we swan. That's okay. Do the serious cow. Oh, yes, I saw it. I drew you about it. The guy, Jay Luccarelli. I don't know if you guys saw this guy. He was on TikTok and he was trying to throw a perfect game with Royo's Walton and MLB or sorry MVP baseball 2005. The best game. It's ever been created baseball game. He went like 1900 games. He would literally just, he would just sit on TikTok live, play the mini gave up a hitter or a walk or an error. He would just stop the game and restart it. He started, I think 1900 games. He is officially throwing a perfect game. Congratulations to Jay. That's an incredible accomplishment. You have to say I watched way too much of this. I would just tune in. He would, there was a stretch where I watched him just like give up a hit and like five second innings in a in a row. And I was just like, what am I doing? All right, there it comes. Good for that guy. Good for him. Good for him. Good for him. Congrats to Jay. Okay, Mount Rushmore time. We have the Mount Rush more of professions that deserve walk out music. The scores are memes max and myself 51. For the first time, I believe all of Mount Rushmore season, we have a new team in second place, Hank and Zach with 38. And then PFT with 37. Anyone's game. Road dogs. Where are we now? We're home. You're like Cal Tucker. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. We guys ready? Yeah. Not really. I'll be honest. Okay. Probably not. Okay. We have first pick. We have first pick. And then Zach and Hank and then PFT. Okay. Oh, no, you thought you had third. Oh my gosh. We were meeting and I was like, this is on me. I was like, yeah, we got third. I was like, I actually feel like we got it. We got them. We got the order down now. We don't even have to double check. Okay. We didn't. Okay. All right. So we have first pick. Yeah. Uh, I think it's only fair. We talked about this, which Hank, Hank declared collusion because we're like, oh, it's the one we talked about. He's like, collusion. I was like, Hank, we talked about it on the show. Thanks for listening. He's like, oh, yeah, I didn't catch up public public. Uh, but yeah, we started this Mount Rushmore on the show last week, I believe, or two weeks ago, but we threw out there then and we'll throw out for our first pick. Doctor, doctor having walk out music where you come in, you got a good prognosis and it's something happy. Maybe some like hollow notes or yacht rock. You come in. It's like, hey, you got a torn ACL. It's the NFL injury. It's the Fox injury music playing. It'll be electric. It's like, this is, and you know, like you know, if you're getting your balls touched, you're going to want some type of like bow chick, a wow, wow, music going. You could, you could do it all. Mm-hmm. Maybe it's touch tunes. When you sit down on that, on that stupid paper on that table, touch tunes should be everywhere. Yeah. That's another, another Mount Rushmore places that should have touch tunes. Yeah. Or things that should be everywhere. Yeah. Things that should be things you like that you wish were in more places. Yeah. Okay. We'll do that later this week. Uh, all right. So doctor is our one one. And now we're up. All right. Uh, we're going to go with firefighters. Okay. We thought about it. They kind of have already have. Welcome. Music. It's a siren. Yeah. But like, imagine them like having like, no, music, like, they were like blasting like on the way to a fire. Yeah. Do they do like, like thunderstruck, like, walk or the jungle, like choreographed, walk out of sand. Like, help, my baby's in that room. room and they're like too busy doing their yeah well like a man. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. It's like a closer. Yeah, it's like a closer like all of a sudden like they're sitting in there watching like TV whatever. I like it and then all of a sudden enter enter Samman comes on. It's not like they're going one by one. They all just run. Yeah, and then by the time you know the songs I just as peak they you know take some couple minutes. Enough time for a song the world if someone dies in the fire like shit. We probably should listen to enter Sam. Man. No, it's the same as the fight It's in lieu of the siren. Got it You need to keep the siren though. Yeah, that siren is very important right for like yeah, I think using just enter Sam Yeah, yeah, yeah, blaring down the street. You didn't get driving the sun, but the walk up like the walk out music walk out of the truck or walk into the truck Walking to the truck and pulling out of the firearms. Got it. Okay. Okay, good pick. Thank you. We don't know less This is my one once. I'm happy that it made it third. I'm gonna take Judge yep, we had it damage. I thought about me. Maybe maybe it's a good pick Yeah, no, because it because the judge entrance in the courtroom already has that moment where Everyone's looking around like it's just gonna be silent for a while But like chill. If that had some serious like some bad ideas come out Imagine if dreams nightmares came on. Let's compete with the judges are two. Yeah Sounds like it was Max's one I saw it. It was his one after we talked about how we know about the more I was thinking about it I was gonna he also didn't come up with it. I thought a judge. I never said that I came what? Why are you so upset? We're trying to fuck your roughs. We're fighting for Mount Rushmore. No, we're not see I take pride in our Mount Rushmore. We're not giving up Wouldn't you guys you guys would rather us still play. Oh, yeah, yeah, this is all working out great for me I like that you guys are fighting Max. I don't know why he got all Matt. You're he's gonna all upset over there I do think once you clinch though. We gotta have a car. Yeah, once we clinch. We have a clinch right absolutely One second place at a next three weeks. Yeah, like what if what if Max got injured during a meaningless Mount Rushs? You guys know what to do Yeah, nothing It's coffee. What was the cough for you guys know what to do? What should they do? What would you drink a water? What do they know what to do? What was that about? I was just cough. I did seem very suspicious. Really suspicious. I'm not sure what it means. I don't either But how bad it could be probably doesn't make any sense, but it doesn't make any sense. I was coughing. You're suspect I was the the serious move like messed up my throat. You know what to do. You know what to do. I don't know I don't know what to do. Yeah, I think anyone knows what Hank meant by it, but Especially, hey feed you my picks. No, no, oh throw it. No We would never throw I know. Yeah, I know you guys know what to do 50 year other. All right, so judge one and then second I'm gonna go with Benny Hanna chef. Mm-hmm. That's good. That's good. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, before the meal starts shows up at the table Maybe it spends the spatulas around gets in the first trick as a music still going thunder struck again Would be great for that thunder struck is just it's the perfect walk out song. Yeah, yeah We are going to go is that you say it for two. We'll get don't don't be sexist though. We'll just go with the sales Oh, okay salesperson salesperson, okay? Like though. I'm thinking of the guys like They're like basically like the pyramid scheme guys where it's like they do like the pump up music coming out to fuck you and it's like Like the sales are sure they're trying to like screw you something get ready for this. Yeah, that's you get get fired up I like times because that walk out music or is that just music in the meeting before it's what it's walking like walking out From you know, the elevator to your desk got it start your day.

Yeah, so it's like the undertaker There's always a couple of subs I mean, but they but they but you don't take them seriously. No one takes a substitute teacher seriously. That's a day off Yeah, but yeah, I'm not even saying it as a knock. I'm saying that intimidating music for your most intimidating sub would be cool All right, you guys got to tell me if you had this one because this is the debate that Max thinks we can get this in the fourth Lot fourth round, but I think this is a all-time. I need this black Jack dealer when they change over Okay, did you guys have it?

You need you need yeah, and if you're on a hot streak It's gonna be like the Star Wars music coming in being like this guy's about to kill me Black Jack dealer. Do you like to pick? I? Don't know if I was playing blackjack and like someone like I would be intimidated like because because you know Walk out music like you think closers.

Yeah, you need a little motivation. You need a little inspiration. You need a little pet you know pep in your step. Okay I bet we do have a very high percentage of sales people listeners. Yeah, it's hard job. Yeah, tough job Get a fucking special job man, they tell you smile and dial tough hole, man. What if you we took the foremost common jobs What percentage of those are the biggest amount of listeners? I actually think sales guys it's less because Maybe they're traveling sales people because they're on the road, right, but students one Well if you did percent if you did not totally find the foremost common If you did not total number but percentage like if there's 300 of these job in the world and 280 of them that would be the highest percentage obviously, but not obviously like there's more sales people Scouts NFL scouts. I think we're like 90% every time we've gone Every time we've gone to a college game scouts come up and be like I'm in my car all the time And I just like listening to bad opinions, and we're like thank you so much. I was gonna say college tight ends I think we're probably back 95% yeah if you're tied in on any college football team doesn't matter which one.
