Jerry O’Connell’s 2026 Fantasy Preview, The Death Of The Pro Bowl And ESPN Bottom Line Plus Fyre Fest Of The Week

The episode of *Pardon My Take* blends sports analysis, satire, and personal anecdotes, centered around the end of the Pro Bowl and a lively "Mount Rushmore of Worst States" vote. Hosts express that the Pro Bowl has long been a hollow event, comparing its current state to hospice care, and celebrate its end with nostalgia for its more fun, unregulated days. The "worst states" segment is a comedic yet pointed ranking, with participants citing Ohio, Mississippi, and California as top contenders—driven by personal experiences, cultural quirks, and regional pride. A heartfelt tribute to Dolly Parton follows, honoring her legacy and sparking fan-driven ideas like a "Dolly Bill" or book donations to Tennessee children. The show also touches on controversies, such as a poorly received Good Good ad and a disputed report about the Commanders’ practice, emphasizing the importance of context in media coverage. The discussion turns to fantasy football previews with Jerry O’Connell, while the hosts reflect on the importance of humor, accountability, and community during Camp Barstool. Throughout, the tone remains light-hearted, self-aware, and deeply rooted in shared experiences, from wiffle ball games to late-night conversations over Mountain Dew. The episode concludes with a nod to broader cultural shifts, including the decline of the ESPN Bottom Line ticker and the rise of digital engagement. A mix of satire, reflection, and camaraderie defines the show’s essence, making it both entertaining and thought-provoking.

We had some great Hank versus Jerry moments. But it is finally here. We're at Camp Barstool. Jerry O'Connell gave us all the tips and things he's expecting to do with our fantasy team. I think it's a fancy preview part one. Part one, yeah. Something tells me he might be back. I was actually thinking about that. Next year, maybe we just do part one and part two. And we'll just do AFC, NFC. Yeah. It'd probably be better that way. But he's the best. And then we are going to talk about the death of the Pro Bowl, the death of the bottom line. We have some other national sports podcast topics. Fire Fest of the Week and the Mount Rushmore of worst states. Worst states. PFT is close to clinching. I'll just say right now. I don't condone the worst states. I wish Hank would start clinching. Yeah. Hank, are you farting again? Yeah. Yeah. No, he just. You should have waited for the podcast to start. He just ripped one. The problem, if you're at home, Hank and I are sitting in two different chairs. But the chairs are connected by a beam underneath. Yeah. And every time he farts into his chair, my chair, the wood, vibrates into my own butt. So Hank is sending me vibes into my butt every time he farts. Come on, Hank. It's disgusting. Come on, Hank. And the yawns have started. The yawns have started, too. That's his throat farts. Yeah. Throat farts. All right, Hank. We need you to clean it up. But let's get to the show.

And boys, it's Camp Barstool finale. How are we feeling? I'm feeling really good, Big Cat. Yeah. Really good. It's been a fun week here. I've been drinking a lot of Mountain Dew. Some late nights hanging with the fellas. Yeah, playing euchre, playing chess. Yeah, it's been an absolute blast. Yesterday was actually a very cool day. It was an awesome day. And I think maybe if you're listening to the show, you already know. But, you know, not to get off by smelling our own farts, but I did come in clenched third to last in Mount Rushmore. Not clenched. So it was a pretty great day for me. What, Zach? Technically not clenched as of yet. Yeah, basically clenched. You're not clenched, though. I'm willing to just claim the clench at this point. I would understand a soft clench, but legitimate clench, not quite there. I might have had some fuzzy math, but by the time I'd celebrated, you know, the celebration already happened. So I'm just going to continue that celebration. I think I'd have to finish last place in every Mount Rushmore. And whoever's in last right now would have to finish in first place. That'd be a shame. Wow. That'd be a shame. But I've been thinking about it all week. So, I mean, I'm sorry it was at the top of my head. What do we want to start with here? We have Jerry O'Connell. We have Jerry O'Connell coming up for a fantasy preview. I thought you were going to talk about the other big news. The Pro Bowl. The other celebratory news. R.I.P. Pro Bowl. Celebration of Liv for the Pro Bowl. Oh, Liv being dead? No. But it is. The Saudi guy was like, no more checks for anyone. No more dollars. You CEOs, fuck you. No more dollars, buddy. They might have cut like 95% of their staff. Yeah. That just means they're running lean operation. Yep. That's all I was talking about. Oh, you're talking about New York Times bestseller. Yes. The Nerd List. We're number one nerds for a week. Mm-hmm. Yes. Thank you, everyone, for buying the book. It's pretty cool to see that we're number one New York Times bestseller. And also, especially a thank you to everyone behind the scenes. You know, Matthew, our ghostwriter, helped with a lot of the interviews. Jacob, Dom, a bunch of people grinding behind the scenes. But, yeah, it was cool. It was cool. New York Times bestseller. We've completely devalued that award. It is pretty cool. We got put on the self-help list, which was interesting. Yeah, that's pretty cool. So, I guess that means that we can stay there. Because those books, if you look at them, we might be on the New York Times bestseller list for like years. Yeah, we got ahead of a book that had been on there for like 400 weeks. Yeah. So, I don't even understand how that happens. Who did we beat? I'm sorry. Hold on. That guy's got to be like, what the fuck is part of my. I got it. That's not a self-help book. Yeah, it is kind of crazy. The Let Them Theory. The Let Them Theory. Advice, how-to, and miscellaneous. I feel like that was more of a how-to start a podcast. Yeah. It was a DIY podcast. So, yeah, the weird thing about that list, you do see books that might be there for like two, three years at a time. So. No, no, I'm not joking. Yeah, yeah. I know. The Let Them Theory was 87 weeks on the list. That's a year and a half. Yeah. So, we'll probably be on that list. Atomic Habits 382. We'll probably. Huh? Atomic Habits. Yeah. Atomic Habits 382. We'll probably be on that list for another. We'll probably be on that list for another three years until Bussin takes us off. What's going on with From Italy with Amore? What is that book about? Can you give us a little something? That's Max's book. Yeah. All right. From Italy with Amore. This is what. The only thing. So, yesterday was funny because it was like. Oh, this is Max's book. How do I identify the most. You may think you know what a real Italian meal looks like, but would it pass Alesso's approval? No. How do I identify the most authentic Italian ingredients, sauces, products, and more in American grocery stores? See, this is how we beat him out because we had Florio and Max do, in our book, the Mount Rushmore of Italian-American sports figures. You know what? I'd like to endorse From Italy with Amore. That looks like a good book. Yeah, it does. How to identify authentic Italian food. I will co-sign on that one. Yeah. And good for us, the Tennis Podcast didn't put out a book the same week. That would have been tough. That would have been very, very tough. Okay. So, yes. Thank you, everyone, for purchasing. Pretty damn cool. Again, I'm sorry for anyone who wins this. If anyone wins the award afterwards, I feel like it's been completely devalued. Between us and Dave, is Barstool the biggest publishing company now? Is reading back? Yeah, reading is back. Did Barstool bring literacy back? We did it. Yeah. So, Memes tweeted this out the other day that pretty much a fuck you to his high school English teacher. I also got a D- in my college English composition class, and we're saying that I don't think to be like, fuck, you were actually really good at writing. I'm saying it more in the lines of like, you don't have to be a good writer anymore to get a New York Times bestseller. I think that's pretty much the message that's been delivered. I didn't close the parentheses. Yeah. So, yeah, I didn't take, I don't think I took an English college class. I didn't take college. That's not true, Hank. That's not true. Neither did Zach. You went to film school, Hank. I did a film certificate program. Yeah. - Yeah, next thing you know, the resume usc that was that was actually a tough do you remember on the way up to the airport on monday when jerry o'connell was just like zach like you no one cares like on your resume where you went to college like does people do people at barstool they ever ask like where'd you went to college because zach didn't he did a little community college a little stint uh and zach's like yeah no everyone when i got to barstool asked where i went to college and i said nowhere it was like the first question yeah great to meet you so where'd you go to school yeah shit tough uh but yeah it was pretty cool uh all right what else we want to i've had a lot of fun bunking with you guys yeah it's been pretty incredible um there were some you know some people that were screaming in the first couple nights but last night that all changed and the vibe was totally different and instead of screaming um somebody was moaning in the middle of the night almost in almost in a romantic way it was it hank i don't know i can't be sure who it could have been um but somebody it sounded like they were having a very good dream last night for most of the night it was it was honestly hard to sleep are you sure because you have your headphones on your uh imass you sure you weren't watching something before you went to sleep i promise you i was not watching pornography okay i'm pretty sure it wasn't me no i'll say this process next to each other it was not hank it was not hank it was not zach oh okay yeah i would have was it rico i don't know who's to say who could have been so who's rico okay i don't know i can't i can't honestly say but what direction was it coming from um across the room from me somewhere i'm pretty sure somebody was having a very long wet dream and it was oh so they lasted long yeah i mean credit to them good good for them i guess they had a pleasant dream they're wet dreaming like a stallion good job i don't know but um yeah overall it's been fun jerry jerry's been a great bunk mate um the other night i was walking home with him after staying up uh in the cafeteria for a while was smoking a cigarette outside jerry just likes the smell of cigarettes so he stayed next to me and he's such a talker that he uh he we came inside the bunk and i went to my bed to go to sleep and jerry just continued the conversation came over sat down on my bed with me oh yeah as i'm getting under the covers and he's just talking about these stories that he's telling me from from his experience as an actor and at some point i was like all right jerry i'm gonna go to gonna go to sleep now i'll see you tomorrow he on um uh tuesday night we taught him how to play euchre and he was and then i told him i was like if you want to get better here download this and just play on your own and you'll learn the game faster and uh at like midnight i was yeah i was basically half asleep and he came and he got he laid in my bed i was basically big spooning him he's like here play a couple hands with me and just that that was it we were just playing a couple hands while we were spooning and so his new thing that he keeps saying is like i download the euchre app yes he's told me that probably 30 times he's he's committed to to learning euchre he's getting better it's it's just been it's been a good hangout this week had a lot of fun yeah had a lot of fun we got to see a concert last night hank what'd you think about the concert didn't catch the concert oh you don't really like bluegrass music that much though yeah i was disappointed i wasn't there it was exactly the them cooley uh brothers it was it was exactly what you would have liked the banjo the boys the boys i know exactly what you want okay uh you know what let's do let's do the the future thing right now we're gonna start rolling out uh some futures for the nfl season then we'll talk about pro bowl and some other things going on but we're gonna start rolling out some futures for the nfl season today's the first one so everyone's come armed with one let's go around the league around the league uh maybe someone shane you can you can track these uh to see but we are going to all pick one future today nfl could be anything and uh we'll do this a couple times before the season starts because we're getting closer and closer hank why don't you start uh i'm going to go with the next player to record a little bit of time and i'm going to go with jerry goff i'm going to go with jerry goff and i'm going to go with jerry goff and i'm going to go with jerry goff and i'm going to go with jerry goff and i'm taking jerry goff oh okay what's the start of their schedule uh they're plus 1100 i don't think it matters what their schedule is i think that definitely matters no not not for a guy like jerry goff did you look it up but i mean if someone else is playing like someone really easy but we don't know who's easy and who's not it's the beginning of the year that's true good point all right they're playing the saints saints bills jets i mean that's two two two bad cardinals oh i don't panthers cardinals okay so you could do against saints or the jets or the panthers or the cardinals or the bills okay just defense is pretty good yeah i think they'll be good they got an interception yeah we're back big time back they got in oh yeah they got an interception two they have two in a row two two in a row two consecutive intercept like on consecutive drives yeah consecutive drive holy shit show back holy shit uh all right pft what do you got um i'm gonna take jsn you love this bet correct that's why i'm giving it i love it too yeah you don't love your bet i do love this no i'm saying like you said i love this bet like it was a bad thing i didn't say like it was a bad thing i just was emphasizing how much you love this bet thanks for you love this yeah good emphasis jason to lead the league in receiving yards after three games i think uh game one against the patriots at home national audience yep he's got a chip on his shoulder from being named uh defensive player of the year as his trophy red yep uh i think he's gonna have a big game there and then i believe he plays against the don't know who he plays you should know this i like so much i did look it up i did look it up a long time ago i have it right here i have it right here um i know that week three he's actually playing against the commanders so like i'm willing to admit that our defense if it's cardinals yeah cardinals week two and then week three against the cardinals and then week three against the commanders if their defense is is uh half as bad as it was uh when they played last year then he'll probably have a pretty decent game and i think he's plus 750 okay zach uh i would like to go with uh matthew stafford for mvp matthew stafford back-to-back mvps yeah whoa is there any stafford fatigue wow okay personally i have a little stafford fatigue but maybe not for the league so i'm just going to go with the league i'm just going to go with the league i'm just going to go with stafford you love that bet i have a question yes national sports podcast yeah i won't say the team name okay can we do this after we do the future thing no let's wait till after we do yeah so we'll wait till after we do the future thing yeah what's yours okay uh i was gonna take uh i'm gonna take the falcons and i believe in kevin stefanski tommy reese but i don't know if it's gonna be great this year i'm gonna take the falcons under seven and a half wins i the two of them are going to be great this year i'm going to uh he's so bad you see the news yesterday it's on life support uh rap sheet said that to his play has made it impossible to name him the starter that's not a good sign no at all no impossible it's not good at all and the falcons they have a kind of a like decently tough schedule um they start with the steelers at the steelers panthers at green bay at new orleans baltimore chicago san francisco tampa cincy that's all before the bye week like those are it's not like they have the hardest schedule but those are decent teams so i'm gonna take under seven and a half again long term i'm in on the falcons stefanski they just need to get a quarterback yep okay uh hank what were you gonna say uh national sports podcast talking about you know nfl yeah i won't say the team name in this but how would you feel if you about a team if this is the worst i've ever seen the blank offense in years inoperable offensive line that would scare me who who is that commanders oh that's the commanders now hank was spreading fake news yesterday just i did not tweet this he was i did not tweet this i don't i know he was leaving out the context of the offensive line yesterday there was no context in the tweet there is the no no the tweet end the tweet says and in our wait inoperable offensive line period right so they do talk about the offensive line on the tweet i said that i read that i'm saying yesterday he yesterday he was leaving out that you were leaving out the offensive line yesterday um so and then there's a point to note because we are uh you know a podcast that prides itself on getting things right um that same reporter then kind of went on to explain their report saying keep in mind about the offense as mentioned earlier cosme was out daniels played with a front five that featured matt gulbin at center julian good jones at center and mostly good jones and to know it togi at right guard so there were three second or third string offensive linemen playing uh at the time for this practice now that being said hank there is some truth to the report um and it does seem the way that it was covered in dc it was a joint practice with ravens it might have been the worst practice in nfl history the way that it's being talked about every reporter is just like you they they're acting like they're war correspondents coming back from a deployment like they were headed they've got a thousand yard stare they're like the shit that we saw yesterday i'd never wish on another man it sounds like it was a very very bad practice um but that's okay you'd rather have a bad practice in a bad game yeah still some time left to recover get the get that out of your system pft at least we're practicing you know what we're practicing putting our guys in stressful situations rather have it happen now so we know how to deal with it get that out of your system but then you get some people like hank that will just kind of read take a report a little bit out of context that's sad hank and then bring bring it up on uh on a national podcast for clicks you're doing this for clicks hank are you doing this for clicks PFT talked about this off-air for like an hour yesterday. Is this getting clicked, Zach? Am I being clicked? We had an off-air conversation about this for like an hour yesterday. About just specifically the offensive line play? Just that tweet. I just kept asking him, are you worried the worst offensive performance of all time in human history? Thoughts? It does. It's not just her. It was a lot of people saying it was the worst practice they've ever seen. Who tweeted that? What a drama queen. Nikki Jabala tweeted. She's usually pretty good about covering commanders. But then you could tell that like somebody from the team talked to her. I was like, hey, do you want to clarify that tweet? Because it was entirely a backup offensive line that was playing. So, yeah, I mean, bad practice. We had a bad practice. But all that being said, there were some good parts in that practice. Antonio Williams. I gave you Ja'Cory Kroski-Merritt last summer. He ended up having a pretty decent season for a late-round pick. Antonio Williams. He's a guy that in camp, he could come. Kyle Hamilton the other day. He's been playing really, really good at receiver. He's going to challenge Diggs for a lot of that second role. He might be operating out of the slot. He's going to be a really good receiver if we can protect Jayden. Got it. Yeah. Okay. So there's some good things going on. Yeah, there's some good things. But, yes, it was the worst practice. The worst football practice since, remember, the Titans. Yeah. Okay. Pro Bowl's dead. Do we feel anything? So yesterday they announced. The NFL announced the Pro Bowl is dead. My initial take was, I feel nothing. And I say that not because it's like I don't like that people get, you know, they should reward the guys who are doing the best. And the Pro Bowl used to actually be something good and fun. But for the last 10 years, the Pro Bowl has been in hospice care, eating applesauce, you know, spoon-fed applesauce. It's been dead. We just haven't said goodbye. So when it actually happened, I had no tears left to cry for the Pro Bowl. Yeah. I would say, I'll go one step further and say I was happy. Yeah. It's out. It's no longer suffering. It got put out of its misery. It's in a better place right now. Mm-hmm. I choose to not remember the Pro Bowl in what we've seen in the last six or seven years. Mm-hmm. I choose to remember the Pro Bowl with Andy Reid wearing shorts, a Hawaiian shirt, and a lei. I choose to remember the Pro Bowl with Sean Taylor lighting up Brian Mormon. I choose to remember the Pro Bowl when it was Peyton Manning talking about his liquor, a ripped-up kicker, Mike Vanderjack during the game. I choose to remember the Pro Bowl when it was 22 guys going at each other, and they were still very drunk from the night before, slash also from drinks that morning. And they didn't really try that hard, but they also didn't rub our faces in it. Yes. That's how I choose to remember the Pro Bowl. So goodbye, Pro Bowl. Goodbye, Pro Bowl. You were a game. You were a game. It has meant absolutely nothing. And no fault to any of the players. Football is a sport that after an entire season, you can't ask the players to then go out and play another game. Someone's playing, like, off the wall or something. It's so fucking loud. What is it? Oh, that's paintball. Oh, that's okay. They can test that out. I thought they were playing, like, hitting a tennis ball. Yeah, it has meant nothing. It was hard for it to mean something in the last 10, 15 years. The one thing that I will ask, and it should be interesting, so I assume Pro Bowl, like, voting for the Pro Bowl will still happen. Is that not right? Like, will they still give the honors? Yeah, I assume they will. Okay. Because a lot of guys have contracts. Oh, yeah, there it is. 88 players will receive the Pro Bowl honor with. Okay, so they need to maybe retroactively go back and clean this up because now we have lost alternates. So alternates made such a mess of the Pro Bowl where we have some guys who can claim Pro Bowl status, and it's like, dude, you were the 16th quarterback asked not to name, any names. Yes. Did Shador Sanders kill the Pro Bowl? He might have. Now that I'm thinking about it, that was the moment where the NFL was like, we've gone too far. Yeah. We have to get rid of the entire game. Yeah. The body blows of Tyler Huntley and Mitch Trubisky, and then Shador came over and just cut its throat. Uppercut. Yeah. But that would be the one thing. Are they retroactively going to go back and clean this up? I think they will. I think they'll go back and say. They can't take the Pro Bowls away, I don't think, for the alternates that accepted it, but they'll go back and make sure that everybody gets the everyone who's voted and turned it down gets it. It'd be funny if people just like out of habit turned down the new Pro Bowl honor. Yeah. This year. I just don't want to participate. Yeah. Sorry. Just being given this award. Yeah. So, yeah, the Pro Bowl is dead. We had a few deaths. So the Pro Bowl died. The ESPN bottom line ticker is dead, which that actually kind of bummed me out. Now. Everyone has their phones nowadays that it doesn't matter as much to see these scores. You're probably checking the scores anyway. Yeah. But it bummed me out from a nostalgia standpoint in that there was nothing better than gambling the entire slate on a college football Saturday and seeing a score you needed pop up or my absolute favorite. Like, if I could close my eyes and be like, what was the best feeling to start a Saturday? It was watching a game and having the Oregon. Game pop up 1453 left in the first quarter and the and it's flips to eight nothing because they not only scored, but they went for two and you have the over and Oregon. So that kind of stuff I will miss. But I said they're going to do updates every quarter and there'll be ways to see it. But overall, it's like, all right, I guess we're just changing and they're just going to make you locked in more on the game and then people are going to use their phones more. Yeah. I think my favorite was when a game would would turn yellow when one team would finally turn yellow and you could. You put that in the bank. I'm okay with it. I think the bottom line is it's definitely it's outlived its usefulness. Yes, it does. Technology is it takes up space on the screen. One thing I think that it is good for if you're watching all the games and you're sitting down on a long Saturday, it's good to have a constant reminder just beamed into your eyeballs about like what happened in every game. It helps you remember like remember the outcome of every single game because you you're constantly exposed to it now with their. Trying to do I think is just drive more hits to the app. So yeah, of course. Yeah, no, that's exactly what they're trying to do and and I get it. It's like yeah, the nostalgia I feel for the ESPN bottom line. I haven't I haven't actually been able to participate in the in like the things I'm describing in many years like walking, you know before smartphones like walking in an airport and and like standing in front of one of the TVs just be like, let me check this. Let me get this score real quick before I get on my plate like chill. Shit like that that that's been gone for so long that I can't really similar to the Pro Bowl. I can't be like, oh, well, I'm sad. But yeah, this is they're trying to get us to be on the app more and yeah, I really will just miss the Oregon going eight nothing and also like on a college football Saturday when you have other games going on in different sports. It was nice to be able to see that that's a reminder that the outside world exists. Yeah. Yeah, or like when they add something to it that has nothing to do with sports. It's like just a heads up during Sunday night. Baseball. They killed Osama. That was a pretty cool bottom line. Yep. That's probably one of its greatest hits. I would say. Yeah, I think it's going to look good though. Objectively. Oh, yeah. It's going to be on the screen. It's going to be it's going to be nice. Yes. Yes. And then Hank the last death. I mean, it's dead. No. Okay, come on. Let it go. Come on. Hey, hey, it's time to let go Hank. There's just these are reports. People are getting laid off. PFT said that they're they're more lean operation. They don't have, you know, live is dead. Live 1.0 dead. The head of live said no more money. No more cash. Yeah, they got a new investor. That's they're excited about. And they said they have a second one coming. Okay. What are they going to announce that? I don't know. Stay tuned. It's got to be here soon. We'll talk about it as soon as they do. Okay. Oh, when when when when they do it, we'll be on it. Yeah, 100%. You know that, you know, we'll be on that. Okay, before we do a couple more stories, then we get to our Mount Rushmore. PFT just opened a Mountain Dew. We're at camp. Camp Barstool has been such a fun time. Nothing goes better with hanging out with your friends kayaking. I can do with KB yesterday around the lake.

And then we get to Jerry O'Connell, which he got in depth. He got in depth. Anything else? You could say that. Yeah. What else we got? We missed it just by a little bit. We finished recording on Tuesday right before the news. R.I.P. Dolly Parton. Oh, R.I.P. Dolly. He's an American legend, one of the most most beloved people in the history of the United States, really, if you look at, like, the favorability rating, everybody loved Dolly. Yes. She was the absolute best. She was the best type of American absolute bazookas, and she was not ashamed of them. No, she actually, she's like, hey, these bazookas, this is for America. For America, yeah. Mount Rushmore of American cannons. Yeah. A hundred percent, and just a great human being, too. Just a fantastic woman. She would give a book every year to every kid in Tennessee. She came from absolutely- Pardon my book? Maybe. We should give a book to every kid in Tennessee. To every kid in Tennessee in honor of Dolly Parton. Yeah, yeah. That'd be a good thing. We'll just give one to Big T. Yeah. In honor of her. But she was, like, you hear the stories of all the money that she gave behind the scenes. Awesome woman. Incredible. I think that she actually should be put on money. We should put Dolly Parton on some sort of dollar bill. I like that. I don't know what denomination, but she is the absolute, she's the best type of person from this country, and we should all be reminded of her on a daily basis, because she was the best. She'd be a thousand bucks. A thousand dollar bill. The Dolly bill. The Dolly bill. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Parton, my take. I like that. That's what we can call our initiative to Tennessee. Yes. Any other ones? Jed, what's his name? York's body cam release. Yankee fan. Yeah. That was a big takeaway. Yeah. I mean, that's our longstanding that you should have to declare what sports allegiance you have when you get arrested. He just did it for you. Yeah. Everyone can go after that. Mets fans, Red Sox fans, like, just there you go. Yankee fan. Anytime somebody gets arrested, like, if there's a serial killer, I want the headline to say, like, Tigers fan arrested with 60 bodies in his basement. Yeah. Ohio State Buckeye. Yeah. Let the college football world tee off on this person. Yeah, exactly. Yeah. Ole Miss Rebel. Yeah. Found in a room with three computers running poker simulations and three walking boots. Brooks Koepka's in the TGL. Hank, is the TGL something you watch? If it's on. Okay. Okay. So that's a yes, then. Yeah. He's on the. If it's on and I'm watching it. Like, I'm not making it, like, an appointment. When is it? Is it in the winter? It's in the winter, like, Tuesdays and Wednesdays. Okay. What does the T in TGL? What does the T in TGL stand for? Tiger? That's a good question. Is it. I just assumed it was Tiger. Is it not Tigers? I was thinking it might be The. Is it not Tigers League? I think it is, yeah. Is it The? It is The? What does the T stand for in TGL? Tomorrow's Golf League. Okay. Tomorrow's Golf League today. That sounds like the end of worlds kind of thing. Yeah. The future is here. Yeah. We're going to be playing. We're going to be playing on atomic bombed-out courses. Wait, but is it not Tigers Golf League? Tiger, Rory, and sports executive Mike McCarthy. Okay. Yeah. For some reason, I just thought it was just. Is there a chance that TGL bought Liv? They're the investor? Maybe they're the exciting investor. I doubt it. That'd be cool. There's been no Liv players on TGL. That probably doesn't work. Would that be. And Rory. And Rory. I forgot about Rory. He's kind of a bitch about the whole like, oh, I didn't like to live. We told that there's a. That the investor is exciting? Yeah. Okay. Potential. Yeah. They're excited about the new investor, and then there's a potential whale coming in soon. Okay. Buckle up. Love that. We got a whale? Sick. We got a whale on the line? Potential whale. Let's go. Potential whale. Any stories you had, Zach? Tons of great stories out there. Tons of great days at camp this week. Yeah, really. I think the biggest story at Dolly Parton, you know, rest in peace. Dolly Parton, rest in peace. Hank, I have a question for you, actually. Big cat. Is Good Good gonna survive this? Yeah, I think they're good. I think they've come back around. How so? Garrett released a video explaining everything kind of through like everyone under the bus. Like, he was like, yeah, you know. He said Good. I watched the first two minutes. He's like, the Good Good marketing team came to me. He's like, how many people work at Goodwood? A lot. But that's. Like. I wouldn't say the barstool. I'd say we came up with the idea. No, no, no. Like, if barstool marketing came up to us. It would be like if our branding team. Like, we do commercials all the time. No, I understand. Where you show up. But we have the ability to say, no, this is stupid. Like, if our branding team said, here, push this woman, I'd say, no. But he. In the video, he showed, you know, he showed the video. He was like, it was a spoof of the Obsession movie, which was like the number one movie going on. It was a bad. Like, bad executed. And they showed the video. He's like, obviously, I never pushed her over when we were shooting it. Like, it was edited that way. And like, the girl, Alexis, who's like in Good Good, she was well aware of what was going on. Like, she, you know. Yeah. I never pushed her. I don't condone it. Like, he did apologize. He also did some funny, like, throwing, like, everyone under the bus, being like, yeah, our marketing team came up with it. I thought it was a terrible idea. I thought it was worse when it came out. I saw it. I cringed. I should have said something. But I think. I mean. They shouldn't. By the way, they should not be like. Like, they had a TV show that they were supposed to come out on, like, Tuesday that, I guess, Golf Galaxy was, like, the main sponsor of. And at the last minute, they were like, we don't want to be sponsored anymore. So, that had to get delayed so they could remove all the sponsorship. There's reports that they're in, like, all the PGA Superstores and Dick's, that all their merch got pulled off the shelves. They're in Dick's? Yeah, they're in Dick's. Okay. Big, big Dick's guys. And I think all of that news. Kind of put in perspective, people are like, all right, like, yeah, they fucked up. But, like, this is way too serious. Like, this is a mistake that, like, yes, it was a bad mistake, but you should be allowed to come back from mistakes. The apology video should have been Garrett saying, hey, yeah, it was a shitty ad, but what's wrong with people? Why is it this bad? Obviously, they don't condone violence. Like, a golf video company, I don't think anybody thought that Good Good was saying. I don't think anybody was saying with the ad that they like punching women. I don't think that anybody with a brain had that response. If I was. Garrett should have just been like, this is getting a little bit ridiculous. It was a bad ad. Sorry. That sucked. We got to do better. But, like, to, like, have everybody turn on us and. Was it Alexis? Mm-hmm. Yeah, and her, and say that we, like, condone domestic. That's the other thing. It's not domestic violence. It's just violence against women. Right? Yeah. Like, domestic violence. That implies. That implies you're in a relationship. Correct. and live together. Not just every time that a man hits a woman is domestic violence. It's bad. It's still bad. But just be like, we don't condone hitting women. Sorry. It was a fucked up ad. Thought it was funny. It wasn't. Yeah. Move on. Yeah. I think they just tried to, you know, they tried to delete it. Oh, it went away. It didn't go away. Tried to just do it by, like, putting out a statement. Like, a very, like, you know, half in, half out statement. That was. The next day, thought that would have it go away. Then it didn't go away. And then it just snowballed. Like, I think if Garrett put this video out. Right away. the day the video comes out. You're going to attack it right away. it's nothing. Yeah. You're going to attack it like someone touched your driver. Yeah. Like, instantly. Yeah. You'd be all over it. Yeah. I mean, I don't. I know a couple of those guys, and I like a couple of those guys. I think it's ridiculous to be like, they can never work in YouTube Golf again. That's so insane to me. That's also the lamest sentence to ever. Correct. Yeah. These guys. I never want to see you around these YouTube Golf streets again. Yeah. Unsubscribed. Unsubscribed. All right. Any other stories? Baseball's coming around. I mean, we got. Max is. I actually haven't gotten a lot of texts about him. I think the Phillies have lost a couple in a row. But we'll have some baseball guests coming up after the start of football. We have real football this weekend, which I'm very excited for. Do you want to do a real. I'll do a real quick pick. I'm just going to go off. I have not looked at this, and I don't know. None of these. None of these bets are going to be based on any type of research. But I'm going to give you two just off the top of my head. Ready? First thing I see. I'll take TCU minus 9.5, and I'll do the USC over. There you go. 60.5. I'm just going to do that. You got to bet week zero. You got to tip your toe in. You do. You got to get a little in there. Yeah. I don't have the number in front. Maybe you can tell me the UNLV over. Okay. Do them both. Absolutely love it. Whatever it was, I already put it in. Put it in. What do you have there, Zach? Are you just reading trending topics? I was going for a late ad, just in case. Yeah, yeah. Go. Give us a couple of trendings. I didn't have the late ad, but yeah. I mean, UFC's going to Shanghai. That'll be sick. Okay. This is like our bottom line. We should make Zach our bottom line. Go ahead. Shout out to Lil Wayne's son, ripping cakes in high school. Okay. That's pretty big. Yeah. That's awesome. A lot of stuff on here about the commander's practice, but we did touch that. So much stuff. You hear that, Hank? This is quickly becoming like the LeBron James getting dunked on thing, where it's like, this might be the worst thing to ever happen to a football team. Yeah. It's a lot of coverage. We know. You know what? This is also maybe the start of the championship DVD, though. It could be. It very well could be. In your defense, I did hear Hank audibly bury the lead on the second team. Yeah. Yeah. That wasn't in the tweet. It wasn't in the tweet. But you knew because I clarified it for you yesterday. I was just reading a tweet. You're doing? - You went for clicks. - No, I was just reading a tweet. If she wanted to clarify it, she would have clarified it. it in her tweet which i read this is a diamondback sweep cubs series walk off and shut out that's just wrong cubs don't just keep blowing just like devastated i keep having like nights where i'm waking up and being mad about baseball games that i shouldn't be mad about uh okay let's do mount rushmore mount rushmore uh reese's it's brought to you by reese's there's something for everyone when it comes to reese's we love reese's it is uh the classic cups how about with the ones with oreos incredible the big cups the reese's sticks reese's

one honorable mention depending on how you guys do all right here we go who's up first don't piss off too many these people probably bought books hank's up first hank you're up first then who great who's after hank pf hank pft zach and then what's the score i i there's been so much talk about clinching and in non-clinching and so if you're a listener and you we talked about earlier pft needs to get come in last place i think what are you doing right now i'm just setting the scene they could ask what the score is pft needs to come in last place the score you're not every single mount rushmore he asked you what the score he has to come in last place so if you're voting make sure that i'm if you want to see it okay but mm-hmm that well it's not just i would have to come in last place but one person would have to come in first place every time but voting pft last would make things interesting statistically you understand i had to i had to celebrate the clinch given your reaction on on wednesday you didn't clinch which pretty much did uh so pft is 12 zach has six i have seven uh worst day one one easy for me i've been to a lot of states in my time cool most of them it's mississippi oh brandon's gonna be so pissed it's such a dump like we did a we did a whole we did a whole person to it i love it unfortunately it's no i like this too brandon's gonna be upset but it's like they're there they literally have one restaurant in like every single chain restaurant and that's that's the town you've got pink eye there i got pink eye there a lot of the good restaurants are in the gas stations right you're gonna probably give us pink eye today yeah i'm well on my way but yeah mississippi easy one one for me okay all right easy disagree and by the way this is all relative like we

california i would never put it on my list okay respect it's back to me yeah all right second pick i'm going to go with delaware yeah delaware doesn't even really sound like a state what's going on delaware yeah you're basically like taxes taxes you're the lesotho of maryland delaware sounds like it should be the capital of the state i mean i will say i've heard like dewey beach is sick dewey beach is pretty cool but that's that's the only thing i've ever heard about delaware and i'm sure that's nice but i have not heard like any follow-up yeah the thing is dewey beach is a good beach i've been there i went there a few times growing up in the area uh but 10 times out of 10 i'd rather go to a jersey beach and i'd rather go to ocean city maryland or i'd rather go to the eastern shore of maryland or virginia okay delaware on the list you made the list delaware hi we're in delaware good job with the whole like having your every company in the world registered there though that's pretty cool flaco well flaco spent like what two years there flaco hey it's two years there flaco all right flaco flaco uh two picks for me again i'm gonna go with personal experience i'm gonna go with uh new mexico yeah that's a good pick there's nothing in there nothing in there is your time in new mexico just when we were there i've driven through probably i don't know several times yeah we've driven through there a few times i've driven through yeah there a couple other times going to arizona you're wrong about california no it's it's genuinely like texas has some bad parts too of driving where you're driving and you're like i'm in the middle of fucking nowhere this is awful but texas has some good parts new mexico you get through texas and let's say you're going to arizona or california it's just it's brutal it's brutal there's nothing there it's literally like hey next gas station like 150 miles like yeah strictly talking the highway i would agree it's not a great highway drive-thru but santa fe is a beautiful city and they've got mountains to ski on they've got actually some really good food which is like a combination of uh mexican food and native american food that makes a really good mix uh but yeah i think it's a beautiful state i disagree i think it's one of the one of my worst okay okay uh and then this one i had a lot of personal history i think when the show started before i realized how big it was i said some nasty things about it got a lot of like death threats like probably the meanest fan base worse than worse than philadelphia uh and then last week when i went to live i was joined by big cat's assistant dom who was from the state and we were in the car for probably eight hours there and back we stopped uh played a little golf so like we spent the entire day together probably 12 to 14 hours he brought up different whether it was the calves whether it was the fucking indians whether it was his high school football team like akron we talked about akron for like two hours and i i had to i had to like i snapped i snapped it was like stop talking about ohio like i like stop so ohio is on this list it started with lebron and the calves and i said some nasty shit about them in cleveland and people got really mad and then it was just re-emphasized last week like i like state pride but like ohio might be on the state dom and tate are like like they're both psychos and like yeah but they're a shitty state it is it it is like a sneaky populous state like there's a lot of people that live there he was like when i think of ohio i want to move to ohio it's like no one wants to move to ohio unless you're from ohio no one wants to no one's like you know what i want to do in life i want to make so much money so that i can move to fucking ohio did you see the commercials that they would play during football games like last season no it was essentially yeah a guy that moves to ohio and then he meets a woman and it's like come to ohio get married that was their ad campaign i kind of like i respect ohio because there's a lot there's a lot you're scared of ohio no i'm not scared of ohio there's a lot of cool stuff there but like in terms of like cultural contributions to american society what what are their main cultural exports i asked them out rush more of people right he said he said that's north carolina he said yeah they split it they were born in ohio right then they moved to North Carolina where the first flight happened, and now there's a license plate. battle yeah between who gets to claim them the teacher that got blown up with the o-rings and the challenger ohio okay that was that was his answer i said who's on the mount rushmore people from ohio and he said i thought she was new hampshire i don't know this was his answer i i don't know i actually think she was from new hampshire too now that you've been i mean some obviously incredible basketball players for right there from akron uh steph curry yep but yeah ohio is my pick i got no issues with ohio toledo shout out toledo yeah she was from new hampshire he doesn't even know that that's how little people brutal yeah i have the i have the key to the city in uh toledo so i i will have to defend the state of ohio i will defend the state of ohio well i mean there was a battle that was fought over toledo some would say that toledo belongs to michigan yeah a war was fought for that city uh what about the rock and roll hall of fame yeah good stuff love it there it is okay uh 17 things america should do should thank ohio oh they're the only they're the only state that's got a flag that's not a rectangle yeah it's like a weird triangle-ish shape superman check uh no he's from krypton no no i think the i think the guy stanley did stanley come up with superman i now have to pay for this article hold on let me see if i can read through the ad so i can't give you any context on any of these quaker oatmeal is number two hot dogs number three stadium mustard you rubber okay that's five skyline chili six oh that's not i'm not helping ohio right now phonographs eight uh buckeye candies that actually is elite the chocolate peanut butter those are awesome uh pop top can airplanes that's a big one lifesavers the national football league oh oh check me oh check how do they have the nfl is 14 behind rubber rubber rubber and uh pop top cans the nfl is a pretty big one also football yeah oh and also the thing you guys are all obsessed with and spend every waking hour thinking about uh that too hot ass hookers and trailer parks yeah okay hank godspeed on that pick do you think it was if you had not spent 12 hours with dom probably not it probably maybe fourth round i don't know the the again i i said it before but you know we're talking about the 10-year anniversary of the book and stuff i like it was i think that was the calves 2016 run and i hated lebron i talked a lot of shit about cleveland not when i didn't realize i guess how big the show was or how like yeah the the reach we had because i was kind of joking around kind of serious but the the hate that i got after that was one of those like eye-opening moments like oh wow like there's a lot of people that listen to the show apparently a lot from ohio and apparently a lot that want me dead uh so that that was one of those like oh i think we have people actually listening to this thing yeah all right uh pft you have a pick arkansas oh okay easy one arkansas you got the clintons you got the huckabees and you got the duggers well walmart take your pick oh yeah we'll toss walmart in there too you got the walmart family in hot springs arkansas is awesome that is i've heard pretty cool yes but really cool but everything besides hot spring is that where al capone went there to try to cure his syphilis correct and it was also where the yankees did spring train a lot of baseball teams used to do spring train there so like babe ruth they're like this is the bathtub babe ruth satin yeah so al capone skid marks on al capone he had an itchy penis and so he would travel to arkansas and sit in this lake and he'd be like i think no not a lake it was like they have like the hot springs coming off of the mountain into like bathtubs and like soaking rooms to be like i'm gonna sit in this special arkansas water and then my dick will be fine it wasn't spoiler no uh so yeah arkansas i think pretty easy pick arkansas i've driven through it a few times as well uh stayed overnight in little rock probably six or five times i'd say um not a great state not a great state all right zach you have your last two all right i'm gonna go with uh utah oh sneaky one utah just feels like they got some shit going on i feel like utah beautiful but utah sneaky might be our lowest awl listenership you think so i don't know do you think mormons are listening to this i think when they want to be bad yeah yeah i guess there's a lot of people that aren't mormons that live in utah too yeah but if you're a mormon it's like what do you have you can sneak off to the soda shop or you can mormons you pick the state in the part of my tape the geo the the geology is beautiful it is absolutely gorgeous state and then yeah but but give those let those legos back gotta give those legos back that all that all occurred in utah that's not

it i had watched five hours of youtube videos about what happened to this guy's leg fourth pick we're gonna go just based off the map most of my life this corner i'm going washington because i used to think uh what's going on up there okay another possibly you're picking like beautiful states but i'm gonna take washington as my full pick he's being true to himself though current super bowl champion state yeah true i don't think you're gonna win this draft that could have been to anyone who was looking directly at you when i whispered i'll miss that uh look if i lose this draft that's just because you want out to the great states of united states of america yeah you wanted to go out on your states listen yeah all right pft all right i'm gonna go with kansas it's kansas okay kansas flat wheat kansas hank they they don't even have the best kansas city that's true that's crazy that's true the state of kansas is ranked number two in states that have kansas cities barbecue yeah barbecue's okay i don't think it's basketball i don't think it's the best uh barbecue in the country i'd say i put i put texas texas above it i put north carolina barbecue in front of it i put tennessee in front of it um yeah again i think that's all you need to know it's a it's got the second best kansas probably i've been to kansas yeah you have okay i've been to kansas we went to we went in to george brett remember we stayed in kansas city or was that missouri that isn't that yeah that is that is no you're right because i think i think the stadium no i thought the stadium was in missouri is it not it's in missouri where it is yeah yeah i don't think we went across even the royals yeah they're right next to each other okay yeah uh my last pick i was thinking about pandering and just taking rhode island because it's the smallest populace but i i like rhode island uh i'll take the worst of the dakotas and take south dakota on the mount rushmore which is where mount rushmore mount rushmore shitty tourist destination no offense okay great segment shitty tourist destination okay you show up you go oh there's mountain all right see ya um yeah south dakota okay all

alaska gets a lot of pub just because it's so like different and weird it's just like all right i get it like you know you're way up there it's cold i mean it's definitely inconvenient to get to but i

probably could unless it was wintertime then you couldn't golf at all really good crab all right good mount rushmore excellent sam were there any that you were thinking about picking zach i thought

yes i think you're a little wrong um i i don't think ohio's that bad you're right about the fact ohio people are crazy about ohio that is a fact like they are like i said if we had a mount rushmore state pride they'd be very high up there um i've been to some very nice places in ohio do you think anyone's ever that's not from ohio had dreams and goals of ending up in ohio hmm yeah see you guys are just scared no no no i'm i'm thinking about it i probably not because i disagree with you i'm it must mean that i'm scared no hank i know you don't believe i'll answer you probably not i do not think people from outside of ohio are like i can't wait to someday move to ohio yes there are some people uh they live in kentucky and they're like i can't wait to get kentucky's nice yeah but a lot of people are like i can't wait to get to cincinnati across that bridge i'm gonna move to the big city when i grow up what about the what about the uh birthplace of grit youngstown we've been it's

how long is this gonna fucking be that's not that was not how long is this gonna be how many that was not this the question that i asked you i i said how much time do you need because i have other things i have to do and you said i need 90 minutes i said great i allotted you already i gotta tell you big cat and i'm gonna say this to your face i don't care about you or pft i care i care about i care about the awls right and this being an educational experience right that's it so if you have to sit here for two and a half hours yep go take a pee pee big cat because this is we're we're doing this we're doing this things take time yeah things do take time that's it are we ready i'm ready this is maybe the most informative episode of part of my take that we do per year i get excited for this every year you're just a lot of jokes but you come out here and you actually get you give some some good information all right right now jerry we're at the portion of of like the next to each other at a nice fancy dinner and our legs have brushed up against each other a couple times and you feel that bolt of electricity but we're still here with other people yeah i just want to fuck okay okay me and you i want to i want to be inside you well i i want to be courted a little bit okay i mean i want to i can't just jump into bed okay is hank not joining us uh he's here hank do you want to join us no he's he's he's here he's gonna when when jerry needs him he can come in and do this last year i think he's okay listen no hey come on hank all right he's load management this is actually smart of him because he knows the courting process no i i'm defending him just jump in here when he needs to be in he'll be in i would just i don't know i like having hank on the show come on hank why are you upset hank i don't you're i i don't think he has to be on until jerry starts bringing him up um because then when the bucks come on i'm gonna sit here please don't leave me hanging for the people in netflix uh hank is always uh part of the process um well a couple things about uh being here at camp barstool um rico bosco's night terrors are pretty insane And PFT was talking to him last night. It was like talking to another realm. It was like you were having a full-on conversation with him. I was trying to walk him through it. He was looking for somebody, and I thought maybe he was looking for Hank. So I was like, it's okay, Rico. Hank's here. Everything's going to be okay. Hank's here. And then he got confused by that. And then I was just like, it's okay, Rico. Rico's here. Rico's here. It'll be fine. He's like, where's Rico? But we got through it. It was something. I do have to say, when he got into the fight, I shouldn't say this, but I'm going to. And he was right about it. When he got into the fight, and I was holding him back, and it's difficult to hold him back. He was fighting with Nikki Smokes over some blown call. I was holding him back, and I was like, Rico, just calm down. He was really fired up. Spittle was coming out of his mouth. And he looked at me and went, a million views. And he was right. That thing got a million views. He knows what he's doing. All right, let's start, guys. You ready? Yes. I'm ready to fuck. You look great, Jerry. There it is. You look incredible. You look so good. Crack it, Jerry. How many pages is that? By the way, thank you to Jerry for doing the voiceover. Nice work for part of my book. Writing two chapters. He's the best. He's the best. So fun. It was a really good time. And I'm sorry if my Portnoy accent was a little New Yorkish. The Boston accent is a little tough. You getting a blankie, Hank? Is this like an ad thing? Hanky blanky. No, I'm a little chilly. He's a little chilly. Okay. Here we go. I'm going to say it again. We're going to be open to the universe this season. Oh. I can't have. You know, a few years ago, if you recall, I was like, we've got to draft Darren Waller in the fourth. That didn't work out. Right. Last year, I was like, we've got to draft Jaden Daniels. He's going to break all records. Yeah. Every record, you said. Yep. Every record. And that didn't work out. Some would say it was even like a jinx. Yeah, curse. I'm actually, I'm going to ask for, I'm a little nervous this year because so much is happening. There's so many injuries. It's, I'm asking the AWLs for help this year. I would like help. I'm going to be very open with, during the draft. I'm going to talk to Zach about maybe even streaming it. I need help this year. And it needs to be constructive help. It can't be. What's that face, Hank? I'm listening. I just. Like, I'll be the first to admit, I can't get over the hump. I haven't won. No, you can't win the big one. I just can't. You can't. So I was going to do something a little different this year where I was going to go round by round, player by player. And not. Okay. And not team by team. Every player. Hank, are you like. Every round. Well, I was going to go every round, player by player, individually. Okay. But I. I. I have like a. I do some. Whenever I do recording, I go to like a walk-in. We have a walk-in closet. It's mostly my wife's clothes. It's all my wife's clothes. But the sound is very good in there. It sort of dampens the sound. It doesn't sound hollow like a cabin in northern Wisconsin. And I recorded myself going round by round and I played it back. And it was. It was super boring. And it went on way too long on like other like fantasy previews. That I've done. You can't have that. And I realized like when you draft a player, you're not just drafting a player. You're buying into a team. You know? You're buying into a process, a thought process, a system, a way of life. What's the word I'm looking for? A family. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. So we're not doing the round by round thing? A philosophy. A philosophy. So that. Like all that said, we're going to start with the AFC East. Okay. Okay. Okay. So you recorded an entire. A rehearsal. And it was. It was shit? Yeah. It just went on. It seemed to go on way too long. Uh-huh. It just went on and on and on. How many times did you listen back to it? Just three times. I gotta. You gotta send that to us. Okay. Let's start with Miami. It's sort of interesting. What are our feelings? Again, I'm asking for help. What are our feelings on Malik Willis? He was pretty good last year. Yeah. I thought so too. He was good on a good team. Yeah. With a good. So you're saying the Packers are a good team? They were last year. They went to the playoffs. Okay. A good team, good coaching staff. Will he be able to do it on a worse team, worse run franchise? Right. Well, his receivers are Tutu Atwell and Malik Washington, and I don't have much confidence in either of them. So I think he's going to have a little trouble in the passing game. I am pretty high on Devin Achane. Devin Achane. Uh-huh. He had 12 TDs last season, 1,300 yards, elite pass catcher. You said his name wrong twice. Achan. A-Chane. A-Chane. Um. What do we know about Bobby Slowik, his new offensive coordinator? He was a hot, young offensive brain a couple years ago. C.J. Stroud. I understand that. He had a rookie year and then kind of. But then he fell off. Fell off a little bit. So I'm a little concerned about that offense other than Devin. A-Chane. A-Chane. Let's move on to the Patriots. Oh, that was fast. I can't tell. Are you high on Malik for his rushing? I'm not. Okay. Yeah. That was actually. That was actually a very good Dolphins preview. Yeah. You said the one name that could possibly maybe be drafted if you had to do a two-quarterback league. Yeah. And then the one running back. And he is. Last time I was doing mock drafts, I don't know what's going to happen when this comes out, if someone's injured or something happens. He was going in the second round, and I think he's a worthy. Yeah, yeah. He's very good. Yes. And he's very fast. That was really good, Jerry. Let's go to the Patriots. Take a compliment one time. Jesus Christ. I think. And I can't believe I'm saying this. I think Drake May is going to break all. Break all records next season and just be. I think he's going to have an incredible season. Me too. I think the addition of A.J. Brown. Brown working with head coach Rabel. I think Trevion as a running back who had nine TDs and splitting carries, splitting time. Romeo Dobbs. Now, I'm going to talk about other receivers that they have. In a second. I think we could have as many as three Patriots on our team next year. I think they're going to really have a huge year, and I think Drake May is going to. I know last year I said that about another quarterback, but I believe Drake May is going to break all records this year. I think he's going to be the guy. All records. Yeah. Tank. I think he's young. You feel good about that? I feel great about that. You know. Coming from a guy like Jerry. What's that supposed to mean? He's a fantasy expert. Yeah. I have some questions. Isn't it incredible that we haven't heard anything about that Taylor Swift wedding? Like nothing has come out about it? We actually did. What? We heard some things. We're not going to say who we heard them from, where we heard them from, because we are good friends. Not bad things. Just how crazy. Yeah. $30 million wedding. That's what they're saying. It's crazy. I mean, that's like. I mean, if Max has had five weddings, you figure, what, like at least like a few, like tens of thousands of dollars each wedding. Yeah. At least. We could have three. Sandler officiated. Anybody talk about that? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You think he did the baby voice? Sam, man. Or you think he did like the adult? I think the ring, the circle. It's like a circle? I think he did the Billy Madison. You think he did like. I now pronounce you mainly white. Yes. Or do you think he was like, I'm going to take this seriously? No, I think he did the former. Do you tell us where I'm going to take this tight end to be your godly wed husband? Do you know the Sandman? Yeah. Very nice man. Is there any chance you could get into his clique? Because it feels like. If you are, you just get into his movies. I'm not that tight with him. We should try that. Do you think at the wedding he wore shorts? Yeah. Shorts and a big. I hope so. A golf shirt. Zip-up sweatshirt. Yeah. He probably actually asked to keep one end of MSG open so he could hoop. Yeah. My only issue with the Patriots is. We're not in this show. My only issue with the Patriots, and this is a serious question, okay? All records. We're sort of watching it happen with the Sean Watson record. right now we watched it happen with tiger woods yeah someone and i'm i'm being serious we've seen we've seen someone go through a scandal yep yeah and performance wise they were never the same right are we in agreement with that yes yes we've seen this before deshaun tiger are we in agreement with that with deshaun and tiger we have seen them go through scandals yes and not never be the same tiger came back but he never was the fully same he won the he won he won a masters yeah but like he wasn't dominant he was he wasn't peak tiger clearly number one in the world do we agree on that hank which scandal it's candles before that too yeah no i'm just saying would you agree on that no okay all right okay would you agree that we haven't seen the same deshaun watson as we saw when he was one with the texans yes okay okay good point jerry so legal troubles they both have seen it before so these things do affect so legal issues legal issues yes sometimes they affect on field performance on course performance i'm concerned possibly we may see that with the patriots coaching staff this season okay that's my only trepidation about not drafting drake main saying he's going to break all records and and be the best in the league so you're going so so you now it's my only trepidation but hank says that it doesn't it's not always the case so we're leaning again toward having three patriots on our team i do think aj brown is going to help drake may i think yes i think aj brown with an older uh with a younger quarterback will sort of um i don't want to say get his way but will take sort of that alpha role on that team that i think aj um uh thrives in and i think coach rabel if uh he doesn't like go the deshaun tiger route will uh will help aj do you think that uh aj is sometimes too vocal and that could that could provide like a little instability for uh you know it's funny i've talked to my friend who's a huge phillies fan he's the guy who helps me with the poems and everything ryan he's the television executive sony executive um he said to me once i was when when aj was like reading on sidelines and causing a disturbance on the eagles team yeah uh he said this is how you want your wide receiver ones we've made that argument before that diva wide receivers are not always the worst thing you want a guy who's wired like that like hey i need to you can't have multiple yeah it can't go south but you you hope it doesn't go south but you want a guy who's maybe suffer from deeper problems you know you want the guy who basically says i am always open um let me ask uh and hank really be honest here please hank be honest and hank you gotta stop yawning i'm not gonna get mad at you hank because i said some things on this podcast where i was sexual and i was i was talking about the company i was working for and and adding sexual acts toward hank and i'm not going to do that again and i do want to apologize i would like to apologize for yawning i got like two hours of sleep last night i was trying to just be off on the side of the camera and i got called in here to say nothing but i will be honest with you but can we get you a mountain dude i like to see you in your face hank i'm sorry but can we get you a mountain do or something or a creamy mountain do or anything that was nice to you jerry that's very big of you tasting great since 48 apologizing to hank for the time that you said that you would well i'm apologizing i'm also apologizing to the extremely large company that i worked for that had to hear all that that was that was an hr situation um but hank i for two all right hank i i do want to ask you when this news came out about the 49ers owner this past week about him going to a trailer park and soliciting a prostitute um did that did that immediately make you think of your owner of the patriots yes it did did it make you relieved like look everyone's doing it yeah i guess okay um um now let me ask you this uh obviously we were just talking about him a quarterback to sean watson solicited exposed himself uh allegedly uh and was punished by the league uh what do you think i mean i know it's in the past now but uh well well do you think how do you compare all of these acts and what the league i am guessing that is going to play out similar similarly yep similarly uh similarly as it did with with mr craft where they're so rich they're billionaires they're going to get the best legal team and this is going to get thrown out in court and become essentially a non-issue even though it is an issue but he's already pleaded no contest so it's not i don't think it's going to court so it's going nowhere yeah he just got fined yeah the legal process he served one day in jail time served so that's the same as robert craft it's over yeah yeah and they're going to pay you know espn's not going to talk about it nope they're going to move on from it and that'll be that that's what happens when you're a billionaire that's actually pretty astute okay yeah good to know uh hank did you see the um aaron rogers i i mean i know we're we're strictly barstool um we're strictly barstool mountain dew tastes great since 48 um did you see the uh aaron rogers pat mcafee interview pat mcafee's on espn he's got a show on espn um did you see the aaron rogers pat mcafee uh training camp interview i did not yeah anyone else see it i saw it where it was uh he was questioning he was saying he was questioning why yeah yeah brought him the show thanks for listening yeah but good call hank he was also questioning why uh no one else was talking about your coach and yeah it was my it was my hot seat yeah it was um that he was the only one that talked about it actually aaron he he wasn't if you recall i actually had a special episode of part of my take where yeah i actually had some questions and i talked about it yeah on espn no you're right here i i'm exclusively here aaron's point was about espn the network uh yeah but i think he was saying he was the only one who was willing to bring it up and talk about on espn yeah but actually here you guys were very uh nervous about it on espn yeah but i think he was saying he was bringing it up as like well yeah i know well i know but but what i'm trying to say is like you guys seemed afraid you were like you guys were just watching the whole situation like uh like a cuck you guys were like cucks oh i see i see yeah by the way we have your trophy for you uh you can ship it to me guys were like cucks i don't know why you guys didn't get cuck of the year maybe next year listen jerry i've been thinking about it i don't think he's a cuck i really don't the thing that kind of pushed me over the edge was when he told us that he uh stood in his wife's closet for multiple hours talking to himself because he's scared to talk anywhere else in his house not a cuck um hank one last question do you think robert craft sent like a like a signal message what what's like the app that like the sig that the messages burn signal or whatsapp the one i use with adam schefter when i send a dark web shit um do you think he sent uh like a message to the 49ers owner like an emoji like a crying laughing emoji or something yeah maybe like a pr crisis team or something oh yeah maybe a link to a team okay oh that's with the patriots okay we're probably gonna have three patriots yeah um i really regret saying how fast we went through the dolphins yeah i mean it was adults let's move on to the jets um memes what's up uh am i weird to feel really positive about jets this season is that is that wrong of me am i being tricked again no i think they have i think how long memes aaron rogers got hurt zach wilson sucked justin fields wasn't good aaron rogers second year was he was yeah he was okay but i would maybe take i mean i would say that the jets have a very good roster and we'll see about the quarterback okay so then who's average then they could be good yeah whose fault was the raiders last season who do we pin that we don't we don't talk about it i don't remember who coach we don't talk about who coached the team we don't talk about who's no no no no no no why don't we talk about that no we don't talk about that can you i i don't understand the joke no we just like carol we like pete carol uh he's very good coach i think that uh you get one mulligan and that year just doesn't exist for him so like i mean i'm sorry to say this and i'm sorry to make this show political but is he like the joe biden of like coaches like out there like it's like what like like like what is what happened last year why should i get excited jets this year yeah if because you know if you were coached by pete carol that's it well it was chip kelly it was chip kelly kelly ruined him and gino's a good guy on and off the field seven sunday heroes he's a recurring guest on part of my take you know i'm so afraid to bring this up but i live in calabasas it's a tony suburb of los angeles hank you should come out we have some golf courses out there and everything someone asked me to run for like a city there was a city council seat someone said you should fill it and i was like i don't have time i have the fancy previews stuff like that and they said And it's like nothing. Just like do it. You have to show up to like two meetings a year. And I swear to you, my first thought was someone's going to dig up me imitating Geno Smith on part of my take. And it's going to – I'm going to get canceled and it's just not worth it. Do you know, PFT, I could kill you. When I texted you, I don't feel comfortable doing this. This might be wrong. You were like, no, no, no. It's fine. Do it. Everyone's going to laugh. It's great. Trust me. Do it. It was awesome. It was great. It was great. In fact, can you just – can you wrap up your Jets preview but just as Geno Smith? No, I'm not doing that ever again. But I will say this. It's so good though. Bring your cleats. I'm so sorry. I want to apologize to everyone. Please don't cancel me. I swear I'm an open-minded, kind individual. I really do. Oh, gosh. Brees Hall could be our fourth round pick. I cannot believe he's going as late as the fourth. Memes, can you tell me why he's going as late as the fourth round? He just seems like such a stud to me. Oh, Jets. Oh, wow. No, it's fair. I'm not fighting, Hank. Why do you think Brees is going as late as the fourth? Groin injury right now. Okay. Let's move on to Buffalo. Josh Allen, if we do miss on Drake May, he's going to break all records. Could be our quarterback. If he falls to us in the third round, if he's around there, he may go earlier than that. I got to tell you why I kind of believe in Josh Allen. When I had children, I became a good worker. Yeah. I didn't stop going out. Like, big cats speak on this. Yeah. You feel everything goes into perspective. But just hold on a second. You said that if we don't get Drake May, we'll take Josh Allen. Do you think that Drake May is going to go before Josh Allen? I don't. But if for some reason there's like a run on quarterbacks. Right. Like, I get the run on quarterbacks might start with Josh Allen. If we're at the late, I don't know when we're picking. Right. If we're in the third or fourth round and Josh Allen is available before Drake May, we're obviously taking Josh Allen. Okay. All right. Yes. I agree with that. I just wanted to double check my fantasy expert. And Jerry, you haven't picked the draft order for a league yet. Usually you're in charge of that. And by in charge, I mean, you just kind of do it. Yeah. Just give us first pick again. Well, I'm not doing that again because I did it once. And I know there's a lot of professional athletes on that chain. And, you know, I'm not sure if Gino Smith is. I don't know who the professional athletes are. I just know they're rich. They're professional athletes. And someone kept writing, who the fuck is this guy? Who the fuck is this guy? Because I did it like sometimes I do things like shirtless. And they were like, who the fuck is this guy? Get this fucking guy off my chain. Like, who the fuck are you? This is not. You didn't introduce yourself. You were just like, here's me, a shirtless guy. And here's your order. And I'm picking first. That's kind of how you could forgive them for being like, hey, who is this guy? CJ McCollum was a great basketball player, by the way. And that buzzer beater was. I know it was against the Knicks. That was. He did make that shot in time. It was incredible. Look it up. Everybody knows that anyone who's a Knicks or Hawks fan knows what I'm talking about. Has a winery. We should say the McCollum family winery. We should give them a plug. Believe it's in Oregon or Washington in the Pacific Northwest. It does. It does change you being a father, though. Yeah. Getting back to Josh Allen. You know, you're not just worried about, like, golf, you know, all the time. Right. Like, absolutely. I think there's the bump. The baby bump is real. Um, you know, just think about, like, women in Dallas, you know. Mm hmm. You ever in touch with her? I think. No. No contact at all. No. You don't think about her? Nope. I think about her. Yeah, we know. We know you do. What's up, Tiff? Um, let's move on to the AFC North. Um, it's funny. I am sleeping next to Jersey Jerry, uh, who just, like, every night before we go to sleep, like, leans over and is like, uh, can you believe he's, uh, people don't know this. Jersey Jerry's a thumb sucker. Yeah. He looks big time. And he, like, takes his thumb out and he goes, you better fucking talk about the Steelers. Um. Well, he wants you to tell you about, like, deep, dark Hollywood shit. Yeah. He wants to know about the pedophiles you know. He keeps asking that. That's so weird. Any rituals you had to do, Jerry? Yeah, he keeps asking, like, tell me about some secrets. Yeah. Mm-hmm. Uh, I did give him a little bit. I told him about the audition I went on where the gentleman came to the door in just a robe. Uh, I did tell him that. He didn't want to hear that at all. Mm-hmm. I don't want to hear that stuff. I don't want to hear that. You're going to talk about the Steelers, right? Mm-hmm. Um, I'm very interested in the Steelers. Uh, I am interested to see if Coach McCarthy. And Aaron Rodgers can reignite their magic. How do we feel about that? There has been about 20 years in between, um, when they were winning Super Bowls. I feel good about it, Jerry. I do. I think, uh, some of the off-the-field stuff with Aaron Rodgers points in a good direction for, like, a reuniting. Yeah. That's kind of been the theme of his past years. You know, mending fences, moving forward with people that used to be close with him. And so I feel like getting back with his old coach, maybe they weren't super happy with each other at the end, but it feels like that's, like, something that's throughout his entire life, pulling him in that direction. So I, I think this might be the year that the Steelers win a playoff game. Is it like people who go through, like, a divorce? Like, they call up, like, an ex, and it's, like, just comfortable, and they just, like, just, like, feel comfortable with them? Yeah, they know all the positions. Yeah. I agree. Yeah. Do you, I mean, do you know anybody like that in your life? That would call up an ex? I don't. Just please, don't. I don't. I don't. Because I get into so much trouble, you don't even understand. Just, you just don't. There's multiple ways I can go. Just don't. Yeah. Guys, I'm begging you. Is that, are we talking? Everywhere you look. Oh, I was talking about Hank. Hank. Hank. That's me, Hank. Hank. Hank. Hank, no. Hank, I'm going to, Hank, you're just, you're just lighting me up, Hank. I'm telling you, I'm like, I haven't slept. I'm next to, like, in a room where we can't sleep. I, Hank, you really. You wanted me here. I don't know why I wasn't supposed to do this. You asked him to be there. You can't be upset. I'm not going to, I'm not going to get upset, Hank. Hank is not going to get under my skin. What about you and exes? Like, if you called up, like, Juliana Rancic. No one even knows what you're talking about. It's, we're Team Jerry, by the way. Strong and hard Team Jerry. It's something interesting is happening in, in Pittsburgh because Pittman is there now. Pittman came from the Colts. So it's a little more difficult. We were kind of high on DK Metcalf who had a, not a great year last, last season. I'm leaning more toward drafting Pittman over Metcalf. I have to tell you, I just. And, and, and the thing that really turns me on, I'm going to, I'm going to, I'm going to name some receivers that, that played under the McCarthy Aaron Rodgers. Yeah. Team. Jordy Nelson. Remember these names? Greg Jennings, Donald Driver, Devonta Adams, Randall Cobb. Like, is that Pittman Rodgers this next season? Possibly. We're staying away from their backfield because Jalen Warren and Rico Dowdle, who's now on the Steelers. Are going to split carries. If you remember Rico Dowdle got a, took a lot of carries from, from Chuba, but wow, that, that Aaron Rodgers interview on, can you put your phone down a sec? Yeah, I was just, I was looking to see where Kenneth Gainwell went because I remember he was no longer on the Steelers. I didn't know what team he was on because he was really good on the Steelers last year. He's a buck by the way. It. Wow. Aaron Rodgers really covers it all. When he goes on that, on that Pat McAfee show, how well he was calling out Fauci and all that stuff. Like, where do we stand on this podcast? Like, was it a lab or a wet market? Uh, are you talking about on personally? Yeah. Lab. Lab. Yeah. I, I have no idea. Are you just like afraid to take a stand? No, I actually have no, because I've seen so much stuff on both sides and I'm like, probably a lab. I'm team lab. What are the chances that it was, I mean, I don't, not to get political. What are the chances? It was, it was, uh, developed in a lab in Wuhan and then also discovered outside that lab in Wuhan and had nothing to do with the lab. I, I, I, what do you think Jerry? Um, I'm going to go with lab. Yeah. I just think there's just too many coincidences. Hank, where, where do you stand? Lab. Lab. Yeah. Sounds like we're all lab. Yeah. Well, PFT didn't really answer. He was like, but it could have been outside the lab. I mean, I could, I could say you're cucking, cucking out right now. I can pretend to be a scientist and tell you, but I, yeah, common sense would say lab, but I, the truth is I actually don't know. All right. We're still in the AFC North, the Bengals. Um, you know, it's funny, real problem with the Bengals. Um, first of all, Jamar chase, as we're recording this limped off the field yesterday. We hope he's okay. Um, prayers for Jamar. No, it's not that serious. Someone's limping off. That was prayers for Damar. Oh, but that was like someone. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. Briefly. - Well, he didn't really, yeah, he's still alive. um you know i i do love joe burrow in the sense that he's he's got t higgins and jamar chase's weapons like that's like that's like fantasy wet dream but do we believe on this podcast and we don't like we're not negative do we believe he's going to play all an entire season an entire yes we do i do i would very much like him too yeah well so would we would all like him too the the league is better when when when joe burrow is out there all season yep but i mean it just i i i get so scared drafting any bengals because they they do have injuries especially at the quarterback position like chase brown in the third round he's uh he's sort of like uh just a workhorse unsung hero in fantasy where do we stand on our quarterbacks going to like fashion shows and all that stuff in the offseason oh like yeah he's in europe right just europe a lot just high fashion a lot of like i think whatever it is here is always changing always changing not for me personally but whatever it is it's probably good for your quarterback to have something besides football that he's passionate in just like get a little break for a little bit so i think a real good thing but i mean like take someone like um we see footage of like uh um uh um sam darnold like just sitting in airports like studying film like in the offseason like uh like do you if you had a franchise would you want your quarterback i want them to express themselves however they wanted to okay okay well then your personal leagues you can draft joe burrow we're still in the in the afc north you're saying you're not drafting joe's what i'm here i'm i again i'm open to the universe if he falls to us in a later round and we don't have a quarterback at that point because we've missed on josh allen and drake and drake may who's going to break all records uh then i i i would feel a little tingly drafting him but listen this he could be he could be qb1 he he could get injured okay these are things that happen in fantasy so true as your fantasy manager i have to take all these things into account you remind us that injuries can happen hadn't thought about it like that hey what was the shit that you guys were pulling when we were driving out to the airport when you were saying that there's some draft king that there's some draft kings fantasy guy you were whispering to each other that there's a fantasy specialist we're open to the universe uh here on pardon my take so we are always open to so who's the fantasy guy you were saying is good because we haven't had him on the show yet but when draft kings if they ask us hey we've got this person that is also a partner of ours and we think he'd be a good fit on pmt for a fantasy episode then we have to you know we have to certainly take it into consideration were you whispering into to each other is like you wanted me to hear that no no i actually didn't know that you heard until just now jerry would you like to have more information or less information i mean i guess more information yeah there you go so open to the universe let's move on to baltimore lamar if he falls to us in the third is always in the mix derrick henry in the second falls to us let me ask you this jerry uh if if both lamar and josh fall to it because that you said that same thing about about those two quarterbacks so it's the third round it's your pick lamar's on the table josh is on the table who are you taking well here's the thing and you obviously know less about fantasy than i do that's definitely true a draft is a weird nebulous moving it's like it's like tiffany gomas like you can't like pin it down you don't know it's gonna be in where it's gonna be you it's like it's like the it's like the bermuda triangle yeah it's like a chupacabra exactly um if we're in the third late in the third and josh allen is there for some insane reason we're taking gotta do it um if in the second these maniacs were in this league with start having a run on quarterbacks you just don't know what's going to happen i'm just saying i'm open to the universe and i'm going to be definitely on x i may be streaming with zach i'm going to let everybody know who's who's there um we're going to be open to the universe derrick henry obviously back at baltimore um unless you didn't answer the question though i did answer the question josh or lamar um later of course i think josh all right so so far we've got josh over lamar lab over wet market drake may over both yeah robert kraft texting uh 49ers owners um there's this x account called polymark i don't even know what it is i just like my my x algorithm is just all fantasy football these days there was some rookie jacori lane the the usc rookie everyone's telling the x seems to be telling me i should be drafting him um okay this is really interesting and big cat you have to answer this for me yeah the the the ravens have a new coordinator who came from the yes why after the bears last great season would an offensive coordinator leave that situation because ben johnson is the offensive coordinator right so you're saying i believe it's declan doyle is the offensive coordinator yes wanted to call plays and ben johnson doesn't allow him to well no i think ben johnson gives i mean he obviously had an important role with the bears but i think that ben johnson part of he's he's even said this because antoine randall l called plays in the first preseason game in the second half he's like he's gonna ben johnson said he's gonna be a head coach soon he ben johnson i think believes that uh pumping up your guys promoting your guys is a good strategy versus being like oh we don't want them to leave we don't want to you know trying to block them he wants his guys to be successful and ultimately it it's not as much of a ding when ben johnson is the offensive guy right who's going to be the head coach who's never going to leave so and i'm actually not throwing shade yeah you're not hank um declan doyle uh this was a step up for him going being an offensive coordinator for more control he's gonna have more yeah because ben johnson is it's like kyle shanahan or sean mcveigh like the offensive coordinators for the 49ers or the rams they are offensive coordinators they might be calling into the the quarterback but the game plan and and the offensive philosophies and everything that goes into it is the head coach so ben johnson is kind of the offensive coordinator and then declan doyle now is going to have more of a role in the game plan and and the offensive is more on his plate with the ravens no i just wanted that situation yeah would you rather have a promotion or not a promotion uh well i didn't realize my only question was i understand promotions but going from offensive coordinator to offensive coordinator some would call that a lateral move i just wanted to know that's fair you're saying it's a promotion yeah it is um i do want to say i did have a boss once um a director named kenny leon who the day he walked in um saw the whole cast and he was like oh my god i'm gonna have to do this i'm gonna have to do this i'm gonna have to do this i'm gonna have to do this i'm gonna have to do this and the first thing he said was my job here is to make sure your next job is better than this job that's really ben johnson does that really um did that work out for you uh like acting wise it's been i'm trying to it's been a little like quiet you should be in more movies yeah yeah i we believe in you i was in a tuba movie this year yeah summer's last resort look it up the girl's name is summer which is confusing um but uh but i i like that philosophy um um all right still in the afc north hank what's going on with your phone just checking it um okay here we are at the browns um i i just i can't you know i mean quinshawn jug junkin judkins they're running back uh i i just i just can't i just can't i mean the computers are telling us to draft him if he falls to us but i just god you know what's funny um i don't like getting massages okay like i i'm i'm why well that's funny he said you know it's funny and i realized that was funny well i i just i'm not kidding i don't like getting them like do you guys get massages regularly i've had a couple i i'm kind of with you it's just like if you get a guy like you don't want to be like awkward when he has to jerk you off well you don't that's what you're gonna say no oh i was gonna say you don't want to be the guy who goes to the front who goes yes i'll have a massage would you like a man or a woman you don't want to be like you don't want to like full robert craft and just be like yeah woman come on man um wait you're saying you're uncomfortable asking for a woman so i just go uh i don't care i don't care i'm not that's not important to me right come maybe it's cock wager but it doesn't answer the question you clearly have a preference but you're too scared to say your preference yeah i don't want people to think i'm like i see gender you know why not it's a weird thing for you and i want people to think it's just like someone at a massage where i don't want them to think i'm there for like weird reasons you know i think i wanted to think i'm just going there to just get a massage the more you say it it's it does sound like you're there for weird reasons um but i just don't like getting them especially like if they just like you roll the dice and you get the guy if he's like massaging your inner thigh like you're like oh gosh don't please don't get erect don't do it because then that guy's gonna think i have to finish this wait tom franelli i wonder if he's listening he just sent me this text wonder if you're oh this is a pretty good this is out of this is completely it's the arnold schwarzenegger uh carl weathers handshake and uh one side is rebecca romaine during sex the other side is me listening to the pmt fantasy preview and in the middle it says wondering if jerry o'connell will ever finish that's literally he's not in this room that's so funny that's a funny joke that's very god you know it's when release stung did you have brooks on or who who did you have that went oh man every time he says afc east i'm like oh i better sit down it was some professional golfer who came on it was funny i think it was brooks um shout out brooks thanks for being a fan we're moving to the afc south there's no way brooks is busy closing deals to be in the tgl um oh it it was max yeah yeah apologies to max uh sorry there's been a lot of brooks talk here on this podcast that's why uh my mind was a little foggy shout out max i'm thanks for tuning in to the fantasy preview afc south texans david montgomery who's there now uh very interesting and going late uh last time i was drafting he was going in the fourth and fifth rounds very interesting to have he's gonna be a stud good running back um let me ask something about your your quarterback on your team um how what kind of attitude do you want your quarterback to have i'm a little worried about cj stroud's aura right now yeah like like you know those videos that they have of quarterbacks coming into training camp and bryce young got a little roasted for like having like a like a pokemon backpack and sort of shuffling in with his slides yeah cj stroud was getting roasted the sort of same way he didn't what what what do you want from your quarterback do you want like a nerdy sort of like andrew luck uh um what what do you look for in your quarterback uh a person who's good at playing quarterback yep want his mom as close to him as possible these are good questions that's good what you really like him to do is uh you'd like him to leave his his pregnant girlfriend and then start dating a supermodel and then later on they split up and then he gets really into leather and pokemon cards that he can grift on that's the thing that's the thing that's the thing with six overwolves and intel seven actually but i i i gotta say it because we're just on that topic and this isn't even shade and hank i'm not even like allowing hank to bother me emotionally those photos that just came out of that dude hot no dude something's going it's something is something is i'm just saying something is off can we all be in agreement on that i would say that when you make an announcement that you're getting into leather pants no it's not even the there is there's a question that comes afterwards i've had a pair of leathers they do feel pretty empowering especially if you're going to get a massage and you don't care which gender is massaging you but i'm saying just the image the face yeah do are we in agreement that's i'm not even going to talk to hank here i'm going to talk to you guys is there something off going on when you look at those photos aren't you like yes when you do aren't you questioning what is going on here yeah and i'm not going to get really rude but something is happening right something yeah i got a question jerry yeah sock it to me hank is gucci like a big big brand big they probably probably huge brand i was actually asked you hey jerry o'connell we have i would do one million dollars and you gotta post i would do it i would do it but let me tell you something hank i've seen images of myself especially here at camp barstool the just the image of me and my face wouldn't be jarring i wouldn't be zooming in saying what what is happening here what is happening isn't that if you're gucci that's what you want if you're if you're an advertiser you're trying to draw people to draw people i i wouldn't say everyone is talking about this we're talking i gotta tell you i know i know you were talking about it's gucci i wasn't zooming in on the leathers i wasn't zooming in on the shoes i was zooming in on what is happening and and there are two people here who are in agreement with me on that what's going on i'm not gonna i don't want to i don't want to get into it because it's actually yeah it's actually not okay we're all in agreement in what's going on let's get back to the afc south and the texans so on the cj stroud thing did you see him recalibrating before the game the other day i did see that that might be better he's he's recalibrated now you know i don't know what that was it's gonna be some like you know they hire these trainers and they come up with these crazy things i don't know if you've ever had a physical therapist where they have you do something you're like i hate to sound like billy football but you're just like dude get me under a bench and spot me like i don't need to be like touching my fingers counting to 15 it's like i i just um i i i i don't know i just have questions about right what's going on i have questions uh all right that i'm i'm talking about the afc south now and the texans uh i don't have that much confidence in cj stroud you know i do want a little more swagger from my from my quarterbacks you know like or be a full nerd be go full andrew luck there are nerds in the league you know miles garrett is like a paleontologist or something you know i mean oh he's a quarterback um hey vom miller's a birder like your science teacher he's a birder shut up what was his name mr mcguire mr mcguire he's a birder bing bong we'll get back to jerry o in a second he's brought to you by twisted tea it's officially the dog days of summer twisted tea is our go-to for cooling down when it's heating up when it's hot you know i'm reaching for something ice cold twisted tea is the perfect drink for lake days for beach days for backyard grilling uh for campfire days i cracked open a twisted tea last night nothing like it at summer camp twisted tea is refreshing hard iced tea made with real brewed tea and five percent alcohol full flavor very refreshing goes down smooth no carbonation so it's easy to drink all day long whether it's hitting the courts for a round pre-gaming a ball game or if you're inviting the guys over for backyard grilling twisted tea is always there to keep the good times rolling grab a refreshing twisted tea today and now more jerry o'connell afc south jaguars uh etienne is gone basial tootin his name is hn hn sorry hn that's how you say his name thanks for listening yeah it was the episode maybe where i think it was the one where hank farted oh basial wait what are you saying hn the former running back from the jaguars who's now in the saints hn his name is etienne hn no is it hn you're such a fraud you should have listened to the interview he's very clear about that that yeah you're not conflating it with devin no no we had him on the show the podcast he explained it we talked about hey sometimes i don't listen to the interviews guys like like this isn't an interview this isn't an interview hank i want you to admit right here when you saw this picture and hold on a second i want you to admit right here when you saw those pictures you were like what's going on and just admit yeah i was like damn he looks good what is that suit i mean honestly were you saying he looks good hank were you saying he looks good hank were you saying he looks good or were you like what is going on listen i it's not he's not the first person he's not the last person that maybe got a taste of plastic surgery and then has kept it going and and and he thinks he looks good and to the outside world he might not look as good you're in fucking hollywood that happens every day i know but you don't expect it from a rich guy our hero our heroes you know what i'm saying it's a different it's not how about brad pitt it's not he's he hasn't he doesn't have eight super bowl rings uh my problem my problem with drafting basial tootin i'm pronouncing that correctly probably yeah was he on the podcast interview him later yeah um is that and uh and you're gonna understand this chris rodriguez is now uh uh on the jags and you know he takes a lot of touches so like i'm staying away from that uh that running back room um in jacksonville you're going to understand this chris rodriguez is now you're getting bored uh pft you're just sort of leaning back big cat his name is big cat i'm pft big cat um part of my take could ride with trevor yes i i gotta tell you those those those last few games last season trevor lawrence and uh and duval uh uh head coach uh cohen um they were playing some of their best football i could see i could see trevor lawrence having a great year yeah uh parker washington also uh will be someone who were who's drafting very ladies wide receiver let's move on to the colts what's so funny memes just looked at me he said one it's not one hour dude it's not i'm timing on my watch it's been 45 minutes memes memes be honest how long has it been i have the timer right in front of me one hour one hour yeah all right i i said i'd do this in in under 90 minutes so let's just move on uh colts of course jonathan taylor if he's around tyler warren of course in the sixth there's so many good tight ends i'm not doing that thing where i'm saying we're just taking although i do like colson loveland we'll get to that in a second um i was gonna say alec pierce was a steal in the seventh round but he's i don't not sure if he's practiced at all this season uh with michael pittman being gone um i am amazed by the way um hard knocks has been really boring this year i i'm sorry to any seattle fans but like it's just it's a boring franchise to see a franchise that's won and they just have a winning sort of way about them and they just do things right and and they seem to be, what's the word, functional. it's just annoying you know the rings though and you know because they're shooting it in the summer it just looks beautiful and there's just bald eagles everywhere and it just looks gorgeous um it's just a boring season sorry um the only exciting thing was derrick hall almost sacked sam darnold and coach mcdonald yelled at him and then afterwards apologized to him and i turned it off at that point they also saw they signed uh the the cornerback from detroit i saw that yeah uh and that was kind of exciting uh by the way what's your stance on kidnapping um i'm not going to talk about that what is i will ask you this i'm going to hit your question with a question i'm against kidnapping thank you for answering my question uh what is your stance on drafting players who have legal troubles do you think you can sort of change their change their ways are you talking about in fantasy no i'm talking about i'm talking about if you were to own a franchise uh can you change their ways i guess can you it depends on what their ways are but i'm talking about if you were to own a franchise can you change their ways are okay let's just say i'll pull this just out of out of a hat of kidnapping kidnapping um in the past yeah i i would be more concerned if like they shot a couple people at florida and didn't get in trouble for it that would be a guy i'd say maybe maybe not um okay all right it's good to know um i can't believe i'm saying this this is selfish i would think about the it's just it's football you have yeah you win games that's your job you gotta win games just win baby um i can't believe there's not a netflix show about the ursae girls okay we really need that i mean can you imagine how much fun it would be being married to them like like we all come home and you know with our spouses well not hank he's single but like um hank could have gone home with like tiffany and been like oh it's crazy mincy ran to second on his boot and then took the boot off it's crazy talk about your day yeah yeah just like huey's gone like just talk about your day you know yeah could you imagine being married to the ursae girls and like yeah we gotta yeah pierce hasn't practiced yet what are we gonna do we gotta get a receiver in here should we take a shot at debo probably have a lot of money too could you imagine a lot of guitars a lot of fun um uh are we picking up tyler boyd honey um all right let's move on to the titans i gotta do this quickly um you can take as much time as you want i'm gonna give you a one minute limit on the titans okay i think that's fair well no uh carnell tate this uh this guy man it's like he had no drops last when he was playing in college no drops great player how do you not draft that person uh tony pollard is a sneaky number one if we need a running back um question do we think that coach dable is going to help cam ward the way he helped josh allen or is he going to help cam ward the way he helped daniel jones jones had a a good season with him yeah yeah as a giant yes he did with brian dable yes uh then cam ward like if we i mean we're we're probably drafting drake who's going to break all records but uh that's something to look at so you think cam ward is going to show vast improvement i want cam ward to be good yeah i really do i think he's a cool guy i i think that brian dable is a great coach and uh no seed oil in the team facility per uh per robert salah no seed oil yeah do you have seed oils do you eat seed oils what is a seed oil like a sesame oil i'm still not clear but it it would be a great euphemism for calm yeah it's my seed oil sesame is it something you put on your body or something you put in food you eat seed oils i i don't mean to be offensive is it a religious thing no no it's just like a health thing he thinks it's not good for you yeah um i'll ask if something's sesame oil um i've heard people say that is it cooked in sesame oil like at tables in los angeles uh let's move to the ac west chargers uh shane jump in anytime man because mike mcdaniels is there and i know you guys are feeling it you gotta just draft chargers i mean just mike mcdaniels is just remember that dolphins offense that he had that was like scoring 70 points a few years ago it was incredible um i know that she's solitary right now i know i'm playing euchre okay i know uh are you are you are you really playing euchre online are you good jerry i'm practicing on the app um they all said i was playing too slow they said i do things like slowly i take my time doing that uh lab mcconkey we're drafting him even though he had a shitty season last year i know because we drafted him mainly at six tds uh little trouble drafting a marion hampton the running back because this keaton mitchell can you tell me about keaton mitchell shane here shane you can sit in my seat no no no don't you're staying there um is he going to vulture and he touches is he super fast is mike mcdaniel is going to do with him what he did with most he is really fast he's like i just want to sorry step in isn't mike mcdaniel his name is mike mcdaniel it's all right i do that it's not mcdaniel i try to get people i do mike mcdaniel i do the same thing jerry don't let him sorry come on the show well he's our expert right come on uh is is this going to be a most or a chance situation that we have with these two guys i don't think so when when keaton mitchell plays he's like electric the only problem is he gets like 40 touches a year then he's shut down the whole year yeah yeah i'm just worried that we're going to have that sort of like thunder and lightning most hurt uh a-chan thing that mcdaniel uh is is kind of known for so that's why that's my only trepidation about a marion hampton uh i want to apologize to this league i blew all of our free agent money on gadsden last year when he had two touchdowns in like the first game and then he didn't have he had like one touchdown for the rest of the year i do want to say from a fashion sense we all made fun of him i have started wearing much shorter clothes i've been wearing a lot of clothes i've been wearing a lot of clothes i've been wearing on my pants it's sort of a style now are you guys just all on your phones like what i was you're watching on netflix these guys are just all on their phones i literally was just moving i was moving the thing that i have after this no i'm saying i'm blasting through this i was learning the rules to euchre i'm blasting through this broncos texting about synchronized swimming jaylen waddle is now jaylen waddle is now bronco gotta love that yes if he can stay on the field he's gonna be a wide receiver one nice how bummed you are how bummed is malik willis oh my god you would hate to wake up being malik willis that would suck suck um are you guys really into this no we're into this where the fuck is waddle to the very next day waddle waddle my only problems with drafting their running backs room is that jk rob uh because pj harvey is the jk robbins sorry potter what are your thoughts on her and her stances whose stances she would be wrong she's not afraid to ask for the type of suits that she wants let's talk about her jerry why couldn't you get on that show uh i i'm about to really get myself on that show i do think jk rowland's not jake not to be confused with jk dobbs who's we should be talking about i do think she goes a little too in on the trans stuff it's a little too much okay how far in do you think is appropriate to go i just think like i think you should let people like this podcast just let people live their lives and not go into like if a trans woman yeah wants to be oh if a trans woman wants to be a woman let her be a trans woman you know like you don't have to say you're not a woman the accent on that yeah um well i'm a little concerned about jk dobbins and pj harvey just because pj harvey had such a concern like later in the season concern true that's gonna get confused here's my biggest concern about drafting the broncos i'm gonna i'm gonna name you their first few games which is why it's going to be difficult and you do want to win your first two games in fantasy yeah their first games are against the chiefs yeah the jags wow the rams the niners the chargers and the seahawks oh so it's a possibility they are oh and six oh and six mahomes might not be starting though for the chiefs we don't know yet um wow let's move on to the chiefs uh they obviously have a new running back in kenneth walker a lot of people are excited about him my only problem is my only problem is andy reed i'm going to read you some stats in the last few years kareem hunt last year and i'm going to read you some stats in the last few years kareem hunt last year only had six six hundred total yards all season 700 yards a year before pacheco in 2023 had 900 yards i don't believe andy reed relies on the on the run no i know people are going to say kareem hunt had only 600 yards last year because patrick mahomes was running around and won't be doing that this season i'm just i'm i'm here to say i'm a little concerned about kenneth walker always a fair concern yeah yeah at the chiefs um uh the computers are really telling us to take rashi i think we will take him because he's going very late uh um i'm not sure he's going to start i don't think he's starting the season um i don't know where you stand on women and what they should what their roles are in society i believe women i i married to a woman who works a lot and i'm very proud of her and she's going to be in doomsday yeah um and is not currently on streaming on paramount plus and i think women should do what they want i don't believe they should be just at home right well that is an important role i think women should have the choice to i don't think they should just like constant i think they should be free to decide what they want to do right it's brave that said we're drafting harrison butker that 70 yard field goal was incredible i mean they can they can they can do it they can do it they can do it just make it to the 45 yard line and just, just. just tack on threes yeah uh raiders uh oh god i printed this out before we came to camp barstool let me cross out ashton gentry he's got a sprained ankle dude oh yeah it's just a sprained ankle thanks for listening oh okay um all right let me unscratch that um yeah you know i said that wherever i said last season wherever clint kubiak goes i'm going to draft everybody because i'm a believer in offensive coordinators becoming head coaches just don't know when is there a bet anywhere out there when fernando mendoza is going to start is it like are we is there like i wonder if there's a bet is it going to be four games in what do you think i'm looking at he's gonna start i think he's gonna start the majority of the raiders games a majority of them yes so he comes on week within so he has to come on week nine or week eight let's say uh um guess that who's whose line is it anyway like which which game six six uh there was a report five days ago that the raiders might be willing to wait until after the buy which would be week 14 oh you would have lost that bet big guy but that's that's not confirmed it's just they're willing to wait they might be willing to i don't think they know what they want to do and honestly anytime a team says we're going to wait with our first overall quarterback usually at the very first sign of it not looking good they're like i know yeah so i i gotta say i'm i just don't feel that confident uh drafting an offense run by kirk cousins okay all right man remember when i got roasted on this podcast a few years ago yeah what what was i gonna mention hank when you got roasted on this podcast a few years ago but what did i say well what was i gonna bring up about kirk cousins yeah what was i gonna say about kirk cousins and you were dead wrong shut the fuck up hank um no i got roasted because i uh i said uh i don't like my quarterbacks wearing that um that uh latex the silicon ring yeah man the comments these these latex these silicon ring guys really got on me they were like what the fuck is wrong with that big big fans yeah i'm a big fan of silicon and its many forms but it's just like let's just say you're a young lady and you go to the gym like you want like i'm still like i'm married like yeah yeah yeah that's what you do it i mean i know you don't want to hurt a wedding ring but like don't talk to me don't talk to me i got this silicon protector shield this is good discourse but why would you do it in an nfl game like right like it's like were you worried about like you're just worried like i guess because like we're redoing the discourse you want to wear a ring but are you just worried like miles garrett is gonna come up and be like hey man are you married oh oh i didn't see the silicon ring sorry bro yeah i think i think it's probably has to do with the fact that if you like break your finger and you have a metal ring on it's probably hard to i understand that but why not just take the metal ring off why do you have to show like the other team might be watching yeah he probably yeah you better sell a car ring man yeah that's exactly what they sound like nfc east how long did the afc take sorry hour 15 okay i'm gonna blast through this nfc east uh max is not here having a great time i just want you to know max is not here because he's probably hank is having a blast max is not here because he's probably titty fucking somebody on the tower of pisa well i hope it's his wife but here's a question for the eagles you lose aj brown okay you now have replaced aj brown with don tavian wicks and hollywood brown okay but too low is gone paluto put too low but too low is gone now you have sean manion how man y'all how is how is this in tell me if you're an eagles fan how is this an improvement how are you looking at this season as an improvement to last season because no more patulo that's what they'll say that's what they're gonna say yeah yeah patulo was a problem too was a problem um it's so funny i would have thought that the computers were telling me to draft devonta smith now that aj is gone but the computers after like 3 000 mock drafts never told me to draft them wow so something's going on there yeah um that new rookie from usc mckay lemon has barely practiced wow a lot of receiver a lot of rookie receivers out of usc not worried about tank taking any carries away tank bigs bigsby who's there now taking carries away from saquon um i have a question about max he's on his honeymoon this is kind of gross though hank i'm gonna make you answer this do you think he's on his sex vacation do you think max has sex in the morning or does he think he waits at night after a couple drinks what do you think well you were asking him so right after a couple drinks like so when he gets home he's like i'm ready all right let me just take a leak then or is it like in the morning like i'm gonna brush my teeth i'll be right back what do you think he is morning or night night you think he's night come on you gotta answer big cat no you said hey you gotta answer wet lab or both he's both yeah pft i don't know i i don't i don't like to think about it you're such a cock answer the question wait i'm a cut for two minutes i'm gonna answer the question i'm a cut for two minutes i'm not thinking about my friend having sex okay uh i gotta blast through this this is taking way too long you guys are still probably wake up in the middle of the night yeah we're stalling you i'm ready i'm ready i'm ready i'm ready wake up wake up i'm coming yeah ciao um okay we're we're at the commanders um mommy um the computers do not want us taking jacori and they don't want us taking rashad they're just saying stay away from the running back room i was very interested in this creighton allen rookie that you drafted from penn state i wish max was here you drafted a rookie i hope i'm saying this all right name did i say crate crate tom not crate tom that's a drug katron isn't it katron i'm so sorry it's not it's not kratom it's not kratom don't do that drug it's terrible it's really terrible um it's a drug and it's legal you can buy it in like just like tobacco stores uh nancy pelosi's son was like the head lobbyist for it look it up cannons oh huge enormous i know um crazy you think they're real or fake honestly they're definitely real unreal um um. um and it's gonna be funny who's gonna draw who's gonna draw like the the caleb downs who's gonna draw and i'm asking this for pft who's gonna draw the the deron bland who who who draws who's who's the who's the wide receiver one at the commanders right now terry so then digs is digs is gonna be a steal um not drafting chig your tight end he just i can't get behind it why do you think luke mccaffrey i heard you say in a podcast i do listen to the podcast why breakout season coming he's been training with his brother uh this is now uh year three last year he looked pretty good till he only had three tds so from a fantasy standpoint that's not like we got injured last year he was injured for most of the season okay um so before he got knocked out he looked good and i think uh this year he's gonna be a steal and i think uh this year he's gonna be a steal he's now i think this is now his third year being a wide receiver he was a quarterback in college so kind of the the julian edelman route yeah i um okay okay okay i will i will reconsider my lad i don't want you i his name's luke not lad oh sorry sorry luke um i i don't want you touching commanders this year i almost want to put you on a you might be banned from the commander i told you i'm drafting stefan digs please don't it's happening i think stefan digs is maybe gonna have uh he could be the wide the wide receiver one this season please don't say that jerry um i i do want to say something seriously i i do want to um because i know my mom will never listen to this so i can say what i want my mother growing up was like a like a drama i was shroud our family was shrouded in drama because of my mother my mother everything was dramatic my brother had some trouble at school and my mother would come in my mother was one of those moms who would scream at principals scream at teachers there was always an argument with neighbors my mom i love her i spend a lot of time with her we have so much fun i love her so much i thank her for everything um hey get off your phone i'm like being i'm talking about my mommy um that said i sympathize with jayden i i think his mom shrouds him in drama i think a lot of this comes from his mommy it's huge yeah pft do you care to comment on that i i've never heard that take before but it's so crazy i think i believe it yeah it's it's it's tough to it's tough to get away from that drama and um i think so if i'm being real i think his mom does create a lot of the drama i don't think that it touches jayden much at all i don't think that he sees it i don't think he spends much time you don't think the lsu stuff touched jayden i that definitely did that broke through but i don't think that he's like on the internet looking at memes all the time i i think that he's a relatively offline guy, and most of the stuff doesn't get to him. But this is obviously one exception that I think did, yeah. Do you think Jaden Daniels was in the wrong in that stance that he had? Yeah, I don't think that it should be that big of a deal. I think he was upset that he got lied to amongst other things at LSU, and then the way that they handled it, like taking legal routes on it. Yeah, not a good way to do it. I agree that that's not what you'd like to see in the offseason. So it's not that big a deal. It's sort of like the Ravel Rossini thing. It's not, whatever. I don't think that it matters to Jaden on the field at all. Let's move on to the Giants. Can't scatter boo. Not injured, right? No. Since we've been here. He will single-handedly allow us to draft two wide receivers in the first few rounds, first couple rounds. Loving Isaiah Likely. So many tight ends. Let's try to give him. Let's try to give him some confidence. Jackson Dart, if we miss on all quarterbacks, I don't know. We can miss on him. He'll be way at the end if we need a quarterback toward the end of this draft. You're saying he's our emergency quarterback. Yes. We may even draft him if he's still around really later on. We don't have to agree with him politically. I got to say, it's a funny thing happening in Los Angeles. I'm in another fantasy league with a bunch of actors. Wait, what? And my keeper is Jackson. Jackson Dart. And they were very upset because politically they don't align with him that I kept him. And they didn't think I should be allowed to keep him in my keeper league. Not cocking the ear, folks. Are you okay with me keeping Jackson Dart in that keeper league? Yes, I think you can keep Jackson Dart in that keeper league. I just haven't. How much time is this other league taking? No time at all. I don't even look at it. Wow, so you're okay with it. You just told us a little anecdote about how much. Yeah, I don't give a fuck. We play sports, dude. What do we care? You're okay with ice raids? You're okay with all that? No. I'm okay with Jackson Dart playing football. Well, let's move on to the Cowboys. Guys, do you feel the hype on the Cowboys? I'm more concerned about the second league. Guys, tell me about the hype you feel on the Cowboys. Are you excited about it? Because you know they're not going to. They're going to lose in the first round of the playoffs. And this is really exciting. But you do feel the hype train there, right? I do. I do. I'm high on the Cowboys. Going to stay away from CD because he's going in the first round. It seems a little expensive. And I think Pickens going in that second round, that's the value. And he could be the wide receiver one. I think he – didn't he do something with his contract where he's just on a one-year? So he's going to – Get tagged. It's going to be a lot of fun watching him. The only problem is Dak is throwing to him. Man, how about that Camden Brown? I hope I'm saying his name right. The undrafted rookie who had that one-handed catch. I have an idea for Barstool. Oh, good. Yeah. Hank, heads up. You ready, Hank? It should be interesting. Get ready to Hank Day. I hope my note's up. Get ready to text Dave. Romo, Mark Sanchez pod. Love it. Yeah, I'm in. Love it. Shout out to our buddy Watt who's now going to be on CBS. I can't wait for that. JJ. Hey, JJ. Vikings. I root for Kyle. I'm sort of like it's made me look into Justin Jefferson a little bit more. Yeah. I loved your conversation about what happens with JJ McCarthy now. I don't know what happens. I think he's taking this on the chin and doing a good job there. But Jordan Mason is someone who sort of interests me way later. Let's move on to the NFC South Atlanta. We can't draft any of them. Okay. Have they announced their starter in Atlanta? Just let it go. Let it go. What? I think it's going to be to let what go? Yeah, we're good. We're good. That was the South. It's good. Good Vikings. Yeah, let's go. Well, I mean, it's South. Okay. Okay. You want me to go in on my I'm just trying to wrap this up a little faster. To answer your question. I thought Coach O'Connell should have won coach of the year last year. The fact that he got them nine wins. Yeah. It's a good take. Is incredible. All right. Falcons. Oh, you mean I don't have any bears on it. No, no, no. Oh, wait a minute. Yeah. Now you're figuring out what we're talking about. Oh, no. You know, I'm so sorry. I skipped ahead here. Yeah. You did NFC. I'm sorry. My page is Dom, your assistant. Got my pages here at the with the Cowboys. My page has got messed up with the Cowboys. For some reason, the Cowboys. I'm sorry. My page. No, we did Vikings. We've moved off the Cowboys. My page just got mixed up. You took your finger off the piece. I'm going to do this fast. For some reason, the computers are telling me not to draft Javonta Williams, who we did have on our team and had like 13 touchdowns last year. I don't know why the computers are not telling me to draft Javonta. I'm high on that running game. NFC North. This is going to be long because there's a lot of players here. We already did the Vikings. I'm so sorry. Vikings are done. Chicago. Bears. Yeah. Our whole draft revolves around Colston Loveland in the fourth round. I like that. I told you. I think he has a chance to be the best. We are taking Colston Loveland in the fourth round. Okay. Love it. So we're probably going to go wide receiver, wide receiver, running back or possibly quarterback, running back. Colston Loveland. In the fourth. Okay. I believe Coach Johnson will do for Colston Loveland what he did for Sam Laporta just a few years ago. Is Luther Burden healthy? He will be. He will be. Then we are also drafting him. DeAndre Swift. I'm very worried with him and Menungai. I hope I'm saying that correctly. In the backfield. I think they sort of Menungai. I'm pronouncing that correctly. I think came on last season. When when Swift was injured. Yep. I'm also a fan of Caleb. Again, we were talking about quarterbacks and having swagger, painting your nails and standing, standing by yourself. Those those team photos came out. You see his pose. Yeah. You look like he was a confident man. By the way, I was not zooming in and saying and some would argue that the photos of your quarterback, Caleb, were more provocative than your former quarterback, Hank. Put your phone down. And I was not shocked by the images of Caleb. And he was sitting in a pretty provocative manner. He was. And I was shocked by the photos of your former quarterback. And you admitted yourself. You were shocked as well. You admitted that. I didn't admit that. I think he looks good. Tell me about Press Taylor as an offensive coordinator. It's similar to the Declan Doyle conversation. Ben Johnson is still kind of running the show. Moving on to the Lions. Obviously, Jameer, if we can get him in the first round. Because David Montgomery is now on the Texans. Where are you going, Big Cat? He's taking a piss. I'm going to go take a piss, too. I'll stay here with you, Jerry. Actually, I'm not going to take a shit. Should we take a break or should we blast through it? No, no, no, no, no. Let's go. Okay. Oh, you know what? Hey, let me just say to Big Cat. Big Cat, isn't it crazy that the Lions were in last place in the NFC North last season? He does agree that's crazy. We've talked about that. I'm high on the Lions. That's why it's such a tough, tough, tough. Tough division. I guess we have to take Jameson Williams. If he's there, the computers really want us to take him. What are these computers you keep talking about? I do these mock drafts that it's like AI that tells you who you should be targeting. I've played all different positions, like draft positions. Okay. And Jameson Williams is a name that comes up a lot. So the computers, AI thinks that Jameson Williams is going to have a good year. He didn't have a good year last year, so I'm a little confused. A little concerned about that. If we miss on Colston Lovedon, Sam Laporta, who's coming back from an injury, is a steal. I have people who come back from injuries. I think you get sort of a draft value. I know they got Greg Dortch, but that doesn't mean anything. Yeah. PFT just left. Packers. I do have an issue with the Lions canceling joint practices. I do think that does not make a team ready for the regular season. Where do we stand on that? Don't care. Okay. The Packers, the computers must hate domestic violence allegations because they do not like Josh Jacobs, who I'm pretty high on. Yeah. But they don't want us drafting him. You're fine with domestic violence. The computers love Christian Watson. I just can't draft him. It just doesn't happen for me. Tucker Craft is someone who will start on day one and, hate to tell you, is another tight end in our division. Hey, where do we stand? On players that wear guardian caps during the season. Fine. You're fine with it? Yep. You're okay with it? I just told you my answer. Hank, do you think it makes them look. Genuinely. PFT, where do you stand on guardian caps during the season? You asked this question. We'll give you an answer. You don't like it? No, I'm asking PFT. Where do you stand? Do you think it makes. Fine and don't care. What's the question? Guardian caps. If you're a fantasy manager, would you draft someone who wears a guardian cap all season? Yeah. Are they good? Yeah. Yeah? Yeah. Okay. You don't think it makes them look slower? Nope. Some of them look pretty big, but yeah, if they're good, I say draft them. Okay. I can't wait for the first kicker to wear a guardian cap. You heard what I said about the Vikings. I did. I heard everything. All right. NFC South, Atlanta. Can't draft any of them. Is Tua or Penix the. I think it's Tua, but we don't know. You think it's Tua. I can't even draft nobody. Cal Pitts. - There's just no hope there. um new orleans uh so guys do you ever get questioned by like a government entity that you definitely had uh tyler shuck as rookie of the year you had a wager on him does any gaming people ever say like you can't talk about that i yeah i know you're not a partner we don't have a vote i know you don't have a vote but you just continually talk about him someone say you are a member of the first amendment jerry yeah we don't have a vote jerry he also didn't win he also didn't win we're also an hour 30 in um do we think kamara will eat into how do we pronounce his name etty you got this a chain a chain do we think that kamara will uh eat into hns so we're gonna stay away from that running back room uh good idea um how about this oh say something good about shock and we can move on um yeah it's an interesting team uh i'm sorry these these notes are old jordan tyson's injured is he no yes he is injured he's injured uh gone for a while right so you don't have updated i just i printed these out your days ago and the internet has been i i don't know what i have jordan tyson here but i i think i recall he's injured so all right i'll get back to that uh normally the carolina panthers are moving out on the nsc south normally we never talk about them because they're all available on waivers i told you that guy in the airport told me to draft chubba but we're not talking about them we can't chuba chuba apologies etchan chuba um we can't draft him because this jonathan brooks guy has been all over preseason and he might uh rico dowdle uh chuba right um well i often think of their head coach having to admit like he looked at pornography yeah yeah i want to say here you wrote a book have you read his book i want to say here i have to admit i look at pornography yeah same yeah do you look at pornography oh yeah do you look at pornography yeah look at it hank i'll watch it um we all i mean why do you have to admit like somebody everybody it's like yeah like you have to make you cheat on his wife i think that's well no but he's caught cheating and he's like oh i'm addicted to sex okay i think he just likes sex but that's different than saying i am addicted to pornography right right um if you're addicted to porn those those dudes are like looking at porn 19 hours a day all the time i don't think that it's possible to be a coach guys did you hear reek this i won't say who his initials are rico did you hear his computer open this morning no was it he opened his lap wait was it really that's funny cut rider it's so crazy being a roommate with with rico papa papa it's burning papa no and then pft talking to him yeah what's going on rico i'm papa no oh gosh why no i don't that makes me uncomfortable i don't think he said that nsc west arizona cardinals go oh who's gonna be the starter there carson jacoby jacoby held out i think they gotta they gotta start him they paid him who would you start if you if you were in charge of that franchise so would i so would i um if jeremiah love is there we'll be drafting him he got paid 50 mil for a reason um i'm not worried that tyler algier is there now good uh everyone's really high on mcbride i think is uh i think he's just too expensive you know it's an interesting bet if carson beck is the starter which he should be um you should get on that i think he's going to be the starter i think he's going to be the starter because their total games bet for the season is was it like two and a half or something three and a half take that bet like that's a fun bet is it oh man do you remember last season when our championship game we had to start jacoby brissett yeah yeah it's tough did we win no came second though didn't have to pay that buy-in which is expensive the rams somehow devonta adams is going in the fifth round he single-handedly got us into the finals last year he had 14 tds we think puka is going to get in trouble and suspended no no we don't i don't know you know what's so funny i didn't think so either until somebody posted that bite mark did you see the bite yeah no that was bad it was really bad it was a real bite no he really like you have little kids yeah no he really and kids get in trouble there's that book teeth are not for biting that was a real bite yeah by the way i don't know son has been bit like 15 times uh you know what's funny i have invisalign you guys know because i'm putting it in and brushing it every morning because we're roommates now um i saw my teeth uh before the invisalign and especially my bottom teeth they crowd together a little bit um and uh now they don't yeah but um i i examined his bite uh indentation very good teeth yeah yeah yeah like very straight teeth every tooth yeah yeah athletes a lot of people say they're very symmetrical athletes like that's why they have that's why they're so good looking except when they're something's going on with their face yeah and you zoom in and you're like what is happening here that's true um okay uh kyron williams the computers he's never comes up with the computers i guess they think that that uh quorum i hope i'm saying that correctly is going to vulture some touches uh but i'm really high on devonta um seattle boring uh boring hard knock season i really want to apologize to this pod and to this fantasy team jackson smith najig but went in the third round last year and that's on me disrespectful i should have had him um defensive player of the year um that's what his trophy said remember right um jadarian price uh i don't know if i'm just like getting excited about him because he looks good on hard knocks but no he's good in notre dame um yeah he was and he played behind uh jeremiah yeah so like we don't really like he hasn't really gotten a chance to shine um i don't think charbonnet will be ready for the opener so i like jadarian um yeah boring hard knocks san francisco oh god uh is zach here yeah hey zach is mike evans gonna play a full season zach is mike zach microphone quick because this is taking a little long uh jerry full season uh i don't believe he'll be playing a full season man it's such a bummer because his only comp there is like this this rookie stribling and christian kirk it would be so fun to draft him yeah i guess this stribling guy we gotta look at him uh wow wow you know what's funny his friend of the show florio got really upset about what was reported about that car accident and he was like i don't know i don't know i don't know yeah and it's still weird but florio got angry yeah he tends to do that gets a little italian florio in your book uh part of my book yeah he also was a little angry he was like he comes off as angry when you you had a sleepover is he in person he's telling me he's a he's not an angry guy he's just he's passionate he's italian um yeah he was uh angry guy um what else did i have i had one other thing here um on the substation no uh george kiddell of course i think he's gonna have a good season but he's he might miss the first couple weeks yeah maybe um all right guys uh that's it that's my fantasy that was incredible that's great what was my time what was my time one hour 40 minutes that was really okay um listen uh i have one question for you numbers um one no i wasn't gonna ask numbers you guys are gonna be upset with me for this i don't think you talked about the bucks we could easily let me make sure i'm asking we all knew he didn't talk about the box i may have mixed we all knew i'm looking at the box i may have missed it nfc south oh tampa i'm so sorry i didn't uh uh egg bucca i'm saying that correctly yeah uh egg i'm really i'm am i yeah you got it amica egg bucca yeah yeah amica egg bucca uh very interesting in the second um um wow you know his his competition is i don't even know jalen mcmillan was he injured as he's still i think he's there and chris godwin who is 30 my only uh trepidation about the bucks is remember baker played half season with his body being remember you admit his body was numb his body is broken but his body was numb it's broken like he was his half of his body was numb yeah and i don't think i can watch jake browning uh for a half a season okay that's weird because you follow his wife on instagram i do i do malo's i'm on instagram because i i enjoy his wife's outfits at games uh i think she really i like people who make an effort and i like her outfits and i mean i'm being very respectful as someone who's also married yeah and uh yeah i come on a podcast where guys say that they jerk off to his wife it's a little awkward you know no one said that you guys have said that in the past and oh my wife said yeah my wife yes we have said that um but i want to be respectful. I want to say Jake Browning, I like that his wife puts in an effort and I like her outfits all right um so i'm sorry i skipped over that and i'm sorry i went i no that was great which final time means

just kind of one of the things you deal with with camp i think i've slept for like 10 hours total uh a little loopy rico bosco zach combo snoring wait you said zach wasn't the moaner oh no that was that was pft story um it wasn't moaning there was there was the second night and it's rico rico's really the main culprit he goes from which is impressive and i am jealous a little bit where he's like we're just chopping it up in the bed in the bunks and he goes i'm going and and within 30 seconds yeah the loudest and most violent snores coming out of his mouth and then you know within 20 minutes he starts yelling he starts screaming like and the worst part and we love rico we're happy he's here we're riders through and through the the part that that is hard because i think when someone snores you can if it's like a consistent volume and cadence you can get almost in tune with it like right whatever it's almost white noise rico snores as if he is uh laying on his phone volume up and down when he like keeps like leaning into it so it'll go up and then it'll go down and they'll go up and then it'll go like it just doesn't have any rhyme or reason and that's what wakes you up you think you're done with it for a little bit right and then it comes in harder than ever yeah i was just blasting the white noise next to my like four inches from my my ears which is probably not good but i was like this is the only yeah uh pretty much every night i've i've eventually kind of fallen asleep later than usual and then i've woken up in the middle of the night and then i couldn't fall back to sleep because it was so that's that's been the story of my week that's neither here nor there uh the second fire fest is we did some some pictures and and you know listen some days you're hot some days you're you're you're not uh not everyone can be beautiful all the time we took some pictures for the for the book promo which are getting you know they blasted out when they went on sale yeah and now they're coming out with the with the bestseller stuff which matter i'm not i'm not like instead of blame for for the ugliness in in those pictures i'm just gonna blame shane okay what what did you not like because you had my eyes really closed i i like that you had a little sauce going on in the back yeah i've been i've been doing a little little little sauce in the back little waviness and there was some bad there's some bad visuals although there's still i have a bald spot i need to go to turkey uh there were some bad visuals when we were actually doing the chinese workout days where like the top of my head was a bald spot so i was like fucking i'm growing my hair out and i've liked i've liked having a little flow um but just just the just just my face just my face and my eyes i think you did that i think yeah that's what i'm saying like yeah i you don't have bad face how could you shane i don't have a great face but yeah could you dude well you don't have bad eyes i got good eyes but they're doing good eyes i'm bad i'm bad poser i can't take i can't take no no one no no male can pose except tom brady yeah true really yeah um you i think you there's a grease stain on my shirt shane could have edited that out there is i stuff and i don't think you're a bad shirt inside out so it just looks like i'm wearing a weirdly green shirt like i've got a plain green shirt here's the thing i think maybe that you need to just come to grips with hank and i speak for the entire podcast we're not bad looking guys we're not great looking guys that's what i'm saying some days like we're sometimes you see something like oh i don't think i've ever seen myself kind of like oh shit i look good zach's hot no no no my range when i see a picture is like my range is like some like somewhere between a two and a half and like a six and a half and i can if i can be anything over a four and a half i'm like that's fine that's that's kind of what i'm dealing with when i'm when i'm looking at pictures of myself and even if it's a two and a half i'm like all right well i deserve that because i'm a fucking piece of shit just trying to eat 100 cheeseburgers for no reason whatsoever how many this week i've slowed down because the food i i thought i had a plug chef him at 81 the chef on uh wednesday morning came up to me you're only at 81 shut up it was uh it was like a drug deal he's like hey big cat and i was like what's up man it was like everyone's getting their eggs and he just slipped me a burger oh hank did you have to raise your ass for that you started this yeah i know but you were farting before the show even started yeah i know but you were farting before the show even started i've only farted on on i farted out of my heart farted out of my heart the feeling of the fart is just deeply unsettling i'm actually fine with that one because it's funny you guys ever watch a movie in like the uh the extra imax 4d or whatever that's what it feels like when hank farts yeah the rumble the rumble strips yeah i'm watching the odyssey over here the whirlpool just opened you just have a butt plug on right now yeah i'm fine with the farts when they're on camera you were farting for like 10 minutes while we were just sitting here getting ready it was recording i was trying to get us a cold open okay but yeah the burgers and then i went and took two i don't know if i was allowed to do this but i think there was burgers for lunch i missed lunch because we're doing the yak so after the yak i went into the kitchen and just took two burgers so i had three yesterday so that's good i need to have one for lunch that's that's important all right any other fire fests it's been a fun week yeah okay i don't i think that you you will say that in a way that i should have one that i'm not i don't have one for you that's been a good week okay i don't think that you look bad in the pictures hank no i don't either actually let me look at the picture i think you're your own worst critic let me see this real quick jerry by the way is so attractive i took a picture of him yesterday all right see i got lucky in this picture that we blasted out there because i had my uh hands on my chin and that's usually the real bad spot and i'm like oh my god i'm so sorry i'm so sorry i'm so sorry i'm so sorry for me is the fact that i have like six chins oh yeah i do see the stain oh my god that's actually three stains zoom in on the stain the bottom oh yeah you have come what the fuck on your shirt my dick's not that high up but yeah pft you look good you got your your facial hair looks good in this yeah shane did a great job yeah shane fucked me like that like how hard oh yeah you kind of got butthole eyes when it's like lazy eyes it's not it's not like again like i see like a recommendation yeah i expect pictures to look bad and sometimes i'm pleasantly surprised this one was the opposite and i'm like i was gonna get blasted if i were if i were you thanks shane i would start wearing sunglasses all the time yeah pft and i look pretty good like comparatively to the pictures that we've taken before there's been so many worse my eyes are closed that that do you guys the cut out that we have from pardon my cheese sake that sits in the corner of our little sitting spot that's like a really nice reminder for me every day that you're a fat piece of shit i look so so bloated and picture and it's an ad for a cheese steak yeah that adds some weight yeah i'd say then you an ad for uh for a book makes you actually like lose 10 pounds yeah all right pft your fire fest uh pretty good week pretty excited uh to to go on a little excursion with hank this weekend yeah i'm going to go visit some of his kids out on the west coast uncle uncle pft is coming to town very pumped about that um actually we just brought it up on the screen here um one of my fire fests this week is uh is oldie and i love oldie i love him so much he's been the best uh him and i he makes no sense we've had some great talks this week and he's just he's a delight to be around he debuted his version of the max speedo uh yesterday at camp and when he took it off i don't know what's happening with the front of his body i don't get it i don't know how it's how it's possible for like i've never got to do a documentary on his nutsack i've never seen like it's it's honestly shocking and more people replied to me saying unfollowed than i've ever gotten i think for any tweet when i posted this picture and frankly i get it i get maybe i fucked up probably just to put that blur on there like the uh content warning his the the front the front it's like his legs have have a scrotum attached to it like his legs have their own separate scrotums i feel like he could actually do the the south park gif where the guy's balls are in a wheelchair like for real like i think his balls are so big and he's like oh my god he's like oh my god he's like oh my god he could actually like lift them up and put them in a wheelchair yeah it's like he's got a he's got a dick and balls but also a giant pussy too yeah yeah and i don't i don't really get it he's got it all yeah he truly is the man who has it all and i love oldie uh and it's been fun hanging out with him but jesus christ it's his crotch strange yeah uh and then besides that pretty good week the only other thing i'll say is like here at camp i don't know if you've noticed this but in the bathroom situation um the toilet there's a lot of toilets that have like cracks on the porcelain yeah which is a little it makes you think twice yeah before sitting on them yeah um so basically whenever i've had to take a poop this week i've just basically been doing a wall sit like trying to take some of the pressure off the toilet so i get sore legs from that yeah from doing the wall shits um all right my fire fest of the week i got two one the first is uh i didn't i didn't win the sad uh shout out the guy who did win i don't know what his name was uh martin allen whims the second so good luck to him genuinely good luck like it's it's not uh i'm not like oh fuck fuck this guy uh sucks for the people that thought it was rigged who who thought that this was going to be a rigged contest and ended up being that i actually had 34 entries into it because i bought 18 season tickets and then a bunch of people used me as a referral they just put my name in as the referral so i got those entries so that's probably why i finished as a finalist one of eight one of eight finalists pretty special stuff uh but it is a banner hang the banner i might actually make a banner but it was pretty special stuff uh to to dream of maybe running shark wheel in a real college football game so that unfortunately won't happen then my other fire fest was um we when we became new york times bestsellers um pft popped a bottle of champagne in uh in the mess hall and i i was just so uncomfortable because people were like chanting pmt and and and cheering for us and i just i was in the middle of dinner and i felt very uncomfortable about the moment um and uh and then memes made me even more uncomfortable because pft asked him to do a speech and memes his speech was to sum it up he said uh thank you all for witnessing big cat and pft and then he said you guys all wouldn't be here without them and i wanted to fucking be anywhere else but right there in that moment memes and facts though memes and speeches are just it was so i landed so mortifying i was just like fuck man i was like eating my mashed potatoes and everyone was chanting and clapping for us like get me out of here and it's not because i'm not like excited about it but it was just i just felt uncomfortable and you made it worse memes yeah i got put on the spot we were i was just stuffing my face with you all wouldn't be here without them it's true it is true me now spot the lie kill me now can we listen to the speech kill me now yeah i think you have the video right do you have the video uh i don't i think pft post on yeah he did yeah that was yeah because i i responded to one guy who's like big cat too cool for school i was like big cat we were uncomfortable that was not a too cool for school moment for me it was i'm uncomfortable oh no shane log in let's guess his password bolt up bolt up what was l love you lt 21 yeah bolt up okay that was a b T-O-L-T-U-P-21, exclamation. He's got it. All right, let's hear. Oh, God. Motorcycles. All right, that's a motorcycle. That's a motorcycle. Zach, Firefest of the Week. Oh, he got it wrong. Come on, Shane. Here, I'll just play it in my phone. Ready for this? We'll just play it in my phone, Shane. We need Max back. Max would have had this up so fast. Is that not a fact? No. Yeah, actually, that is not a fact. Oh, my gosh. All right, here we go. Shane's birthday. PFT, write this down. All right, here it is. I'd like to thank all of you for witnessing this number one seller of big-ass PFT. Without them, nobody would be here. Shut up. That's like, shut up. We don't really celebrate much, and I thought that this was one thing that probably, if we're going to celebrate something, 10 years and- No, it's nothing. No, it wasn't you. You didn't do anything wrong. It was just more like the moment I was just like, oh, fuck. Like, everyone clapping for us. I just felt uncomfortable. All the different directions this pod could have taken us, this is one that I did not see coming. Yeah, I'd agree. So, it's one of the moments where I have to make sure to stop and be like, this is cool. Yeah, no, absolutely. It's definitely a, wow, we actually did it. I think it's also like kind of a fucked up thing in my head where we knew how many we were selling, so it was like, not a foregone conclusion, but we were pretty confident that we were going to get it. So, it was, when it happened, I was like, all right, I expected that almost. So, you got to kind of like remove yourself and say, no, you know what? This is actually really cool. You should be proud of it. But just, yeah, memes being like, you guys all don't have a life without them. It's like me. I'm in like the- We, we. Yeah, yeah. Like, I definitely wouldn't. Also- Shane's from Bumfuck. He wouldn't be here. Like- Thank you for witnessing them. Yeah. Okay. Yeah, no, I hear what you say. Like I said, we kind of expected it. Like, I feel the same way about Rushmore right now, finishing not last. Yeah. So, when I get it, it's not going to be- It was interesting. Zach, were you there for the speech? I was not, sir. So, some may say, I think Gaz even said it, that you were actually- Because Zach and Hank weren't there, that maybe PFT was popping the bottle really for Mount Rushmore season. Which I had already done. He did that. Yeah, that's true. So, I actually ended up- Don went out and I asked him to buy me two bottles of champagne because of Hank thinking that that's what I was getting the champagne for. Yeah. So, we did that. Yeah. Okay. Zach. My favorite for this week, it is, then you need to be said, camp's a great week, beautiful week. We have so much fun. So, it's hard to like harp on the negatives. Really quick one. First day, had a good day. Second day, let's hit the showers. Let's get it done. Let's wash up. Forgot the towel in the cabin. So, it was just like, I had to get dressed at 100% wet. Yeah. And I don't know why I chose to put my socks on, but yeah. So, I went- Oh, you went wet socks. I went full fit because I didn't want to go boxers through the concourse. Yeah. And it kind of just set a tone of damp for the rest of my evening. Yeah. Wet socks, tough to come out from. Yeah. It was, other than that, great week. I know you like to get wet. I'll never forget a towel in any situation ever again. No other fire press, Zach. Oh, no. What else? What are we thinking, memes? You forget to trim something? Oh, no. Wait, what? No, there's a bad visual on the- Oh, that's like, that's guys saying, like, how do you have back hair and chest hair? I don't know, dude. I'm an adult. Yeah, Zach, I- I hit puberty when I was a kid. If you shave your back- I don't know what to do. Like, I knock it down every once in a while just because, like, it's a lot. And it's, so every, like, probably biannually, you just take down the back hair and chest hair, but- You're moving it. I don't know, dude. I hit puberty. Testosterone's a thing. I'm not sure how bodies work, but- You're moving Armenian. Yeah, I'm not here to, like, yeah. Zach, I get it reversed, because I don't have a, like, a ton of armpit hair or chest hair and everything. Yeah. Like, do you shave? It's like, no, dude. I just, I don't know. I didn't, I'm sorry. Sorry that I don't have a ton. Yeah. Jerry's got a little patch, though. Jerry's got, like, a tramp stamp of hair. Yeah, he does. Jerry's so good looking, though. He's so good looking. All right, memes. You got anything? You got anything? No, I saw Facilio's balls. Yeah. Okay. Yeah, that's about it. Were they good? Only his balls? Yeah, and his dick, but- Were they good? No. Well, I mean, come on. They had to have been okay. He's Italian. He's an Italian man.
