Networking and Podcasting? Week 6 in the NFL? · Off the Bench - London

• 0:01
  You are now tuned into Off the Bench London with
• 0:05
  your host Malcolm the Milkman Noel and Scott
• 0:07
  Hone at the Clubhouse on 100 Kellogg Lane. What
• 0:19
  up? Hey, how's it going? Alright, another episode.
• 0:24
  Let's do it. How you doing? Episode 6. Yeah,
• 0:27
  man. It's been a wild one. It started off like
• 0:33
  crap. 100%. It felt like crap. It started off
• 0:37
  like scat. It definitely started off like boo
• 0:44
  -boo. Yeah. Or whatever runs with boo -boo. Yeah.
• 0:51
  I think whatever runs there. Yeah. Giants. That
• 0:58
  was a rough game. But you got a lot. We'll get
• 1:04
  to it, but you can't lie, it was entertaining.
• 1:07
  For everyone else. It was against the Eagles
• 1:11
  for you, but they put on a show. We'll definitely
• 1:17
  get into that. You can't get mad when it's also
• 1:21
  fun to watch. If it's a gross win, then you can
• 1:25
  be mad, but it was like a breakout game for them.
• 1:28
  You know what? That game? Also, it's a divisional
• 1:32
  rival, so yeah. Which was even worse. I think
• 1:35
  the worst part about it is things that we were
• 1:37
  talking about on this podcast came to fruition.
• 1:41
  Look, man, I'm not just saying random stuff.
• 1:45
  It's almost like you're listening to WWE right
• 1:48
  now because right now, if you're a fan of WWE,
• 1:51
  there's a guy named Seth Rollins. He's the visionary.
• 1:54
  Well, meet Scott, the visionary. That might be
• 1:58
  your nickname. Scott, the visionary home. Hey,
• 2:01
  I mean, you can quote that, but... Like, you're
• 2:06
  ahead of your time right now. I know. All of
• 2:09
  a sudden, after this week, everyone's calling
• 2:12
  Jalen Hurts Russell Wilson. We said it on this
• 2:17
  podcast first, though. Yeah. So, first off, I
• 2:21
  guess we've got to say, yo, thank you again for
• 2:24
  watching. If you are watching now, make sure
• 2:27
  you like and subscribe and tell your friends.
• 2:29
  It would be greatly appreciated. We host this
• 2:32
  every Monday night at the Clubhouse. Every Monday,
• 2:35
  we'll be here. Yeah, man. Giving out some jerseys.
• 2:38
  We got, like, these are, like, legit official
• 2:40
  jerseys, too. Yeah, they're not replicas. Yeah,
• 2:42
  they're not those replicas. Not like AliExpress
• 2:45
  or DHGate. Yeah, no, they're the good ones. Yeah.
• 2:50
  So this is the Thanksgiving, Canadian Thanksgiving.
• 2:53
  Yeah, Canadian Thanksgiving. So to all our Canadians
• 2:55
  out there. The one that matters, the real Thanksgiving.
• 2:57
  Whoa, whoa, whoa. There are Americans that watch
• 2:59
  this. Well, we really enjoy theirs, too. I just
• 3:04
  don't eat a turkey for theirs. Actually, yeah,
• 3:08
  yeah. Yeah. I like American Thanksgiving, too,
• 3:12
  because it's good football all day long. Oh,
• 3:15
  for sure. Don't get me wrong. For sure. If someone
• 3:18
  says, when's Thanksgiving? It's in October. Yeah,
• 3:22
  it's the harvest. Yeah. The harvest. It makes
• 3:24
  sense. You know what I mean? It really makes
• 3:27
  no sense that there's two. That's what really
• 3:29
  doesn't make sense. Canada and the States have
• 3:33
  to be separate. Yeah, we... We can definitely
• 3:35
  not become the 51st. Yeah. Because I don't want
• 3:38
  to lose our Canadian Thanksgiving. Yeah, that's
• 3:43
  the reason. That's the reason. This is not a
• 3:46
  political podcast. This is definitely not a political
• 3:50
  podcast. But a few things we do, you know, that
• 3:54
  Clubhouse does, even on Thanksgiving, you know,
• 3:58
  you can still get this booth that we're actually
• 4:00
  hosting in. You can see the games right behind
• 4:02
  us. So you can get 10 of your friends, get some
• 4:05
  nachos. Nachos, beer. Have someone serve you.
• 4:11
  Take care of. But, I mean, you can use these
• 4:14
  simulators all the time. They can do golf clubs
• 4:18
  over there. Golf, hockey, football, baseball,
• 4:21
  whatever you want to do. And then I don't know
• 4:24
  if you guys can hear it. They got duck pin bowling
• 4:25
  as well. Right next to us. Mini putt here. Yep.
• 4:29
  It's basically a one -stop shop. One -stop shop.
• 4:32
  Yep. If you got kids, this is great. You can
• 4:35
  let your kids go on a trampoline. Trampoline
• 4:37
  Children's Museum's downstairs. Upstairs. Upstairs.
• 4:39
  It's upstairs, actually. Upstairs? Yeah, it's
• 4:41
  upstairs. I thought it was downstairs. No, no,
• 4:44
  it's definitely upstairs. Sorry, definitely upstairs.
• 4:46
  Yeah. Hmm. Yeah. Pretty sure it's right below
• 4:50
  us. You think so? Yeah. Okay. I don't know. This
• 4:54
  building is massive. That's the bottom line.
• 4:56
  It is huge. It is huge. So you need to check
• 4:59
  it out. Bring your family or come with your boys.
• 5:02
  Like, Clubhouse is a sports bar. They do a lot
• 5:06
  of things supporting local stuff, too. Well,
• 5:08
  if it wasn't for Clubhouse, we wouldn't be here.
• 5:10
  Exactly. Like, we're local, we're from London,
• 5:13
  we're doing this all, but trying to do this as
• 5:15
  much about London as we can. Obviously, football's
• 5:19
  in the States, but... Yeah. I mean, hey, last
• 5:23
  week, that giveaway we did for Knights tickets?
• 5:28
  Yes, that was huge. What an experience. If everyone's
• 5:34
  watching, where's the best place to sit when
• 5:38
  you're watching the Knights play? Where does
• 5:40
  all the action happen? Behind the away goalie.
• 5:45
  That's where we're sitting. Because the Knights
• 5:47
  are always good. Yep. That's where all the action
• 5:49
  is. Yep. Yep. And that's where we're sitting.
• 5:51
  That's where the lucky winners actually were
• 5:53
  sitting, too. Yeah. You know, so you get all
• 5:55
  the action, all the shots are hitting you. All
• 5:57
  the action's right. Like, I almost got hit in
• 6:00
  the face with a puck. If it wasn't for the glass.
• 6:03
  Like, it just, it's right here. Bam. Bam. But
• 6:08
  it's fun. It's a good time. Yeah, man. No, it
• 6:12
  was good. No, it was a fun experience. And I'm
• 6:14
  happy that Clubhouse gave us the opportunity
• 6:15
  to give those tickets away. Exactly. So thank
• 6:17
  you again, Clubhouse, for that. And thank you
• 6:20
  for everyone who joined on the contest. We'll
• 6:23
  be doing more soon. Yeah. But, yeah. The more
• 6:28
  traction we can get, the more we can give away.
• 6:32
  All right. So, yeah. So, week six. We've been
• 6:36
  podcasting for six weeks. Yeah. It's kind of
• 6:40
  crazy when you think of it right now. That's
• 6:42
  like a month and a half. Yeah, for sure. But,
• 6:45
  like, a lot of people who start podcasting usually
• 6:49
  stop after the third episode because they don't
• 6:51
  have content. Yeah, that's fair. We're kind of
• 6:54
  lucky. Because I don't stop talking. Well, that
• 6:57
  too. That's a huge benefit. But I think the other
• 7:00
  aspect of it is like, you know, it's kind of
• 7:02
  cool that, you know, we're a podcast that our
• 7:05
  content gets made every week for us and we kind
• 7:08
  of expand on it. Yeah, exactly. So we don't necessarily
• 7:11
  get that burnout that everyone else kind of has
• 7:13
  with like a typical podcast where ours is a sports
• 7:16
  podcast and every week someone's doing something
• 7:19
  that we can talk about. Yeah, there's wild stuff.
• 7:21
  More wild stuff happened this week. So. And,
• 7:24
  like, we don't always have to talk about the
• 7:26
  games. We can talk about, you know, football.
• 7:28
  We can talk about basketball. We can talk about
• 7:30
  NHL. You know, like, look at the Jays right now.
• 7:32
  Congratulations for them to get to this point.
• 7:34
  I wish they could win a game. Pull something
• 7:38
  off. They need some turnaround. That's for sure.
• 7:43
  But so far, like, when you look at how we're
• 7:48
  doing our podcast, you know, like the why and
• 7:51
  our goal, how do you view it? Honestly, like,
• 7:56
  I think it's a nice, like, learning experience
• 8:02
  for myself because, like, I've never done podcasting
• 8:05
  or anything before. Likewise, likewise. So we're
• 8:09
  taking it step by step. Like, every week's been
• 8:12
  better than the last. We're getting more and
• 8:14
  more comfortable with it, a little bit easier
• 8:16
  to do. Yep. I don't know. I just think it's a
• 8:23
  lot of fun. Oh, for sure. Especially when it's
• 8:25
  one of those things that you're going to, like,
• 8:26
  we'll sit around and talk about football anyway.
• 8:28
  Yep. We'll be having pretty much these exact
• 8:31
  same conversations. Whether it's me and you or
• 8:33
  Thanksgiving, if you're watching this. You're
• 8:36
  staying at home. Same people you're going to
• 8:37
  do this at home with. Yeah. You know, we're just
• 8:39
  doing it live. So if you're at work and, you
• 8:42
  know, you don't want to have just nothing in
• 8:45
  the background, you can listen to us talk about
• 8:46
  things that you want to talk about at the dinner
• 8:47
  table. Exactly. And sometimes we'll say things,
• 8:51
  and they will be ahead of their time. The visionary.
• 8:58
  Get a t -shirt. Yeah, you're literally going
• 9:01
  to get a t -shirt now that's going to say the
• 9:03
  visionary with your face on it. Yeah, just blow
• 9:07
  it up. WWE style, Seth Rollins, a .k .a. the
• 9:11
  visionary. That's another thing we're kind of
• 9:13
  starting to work on. Yeah, yeah. So we're definitely
• 9:16
  working on merch. So since this is off the bench,
• 9:21
  I also own Milky Way Apparel. So we will be building
• 9:26
  merch based on things that we say. Because, like,
• 9:28
  I'm going to say something today. This week I'll
• 9:31
  release a shirt based off it because it's going
• 9:34
  to – but you'll understand once I get there.
• 9:37
  Oh, boy. Yeah. Yeah, it's going to be one of
• 9:40
  those things. I have to design a shirt, and I
• 9:43
  have to wear it from now on. Oh, all right. It's
• 9:47
  going to be one of those things that you'll understand
• 9:49
  once you get there. See, I immediately want to
• 9:56
  go to guessing what the shirt is. Well, wait
• 9:59
  until we get to our weekly topics, and then we'll
• 10:01
  get there. Yeah, the wheels are spinning. If
• 10:07
  you guys are watching, feel free to try and figure
• 10:09
  it out. We'll get there. But, yeah, no, like,
• 10:15
  overall, I think what we're doing, like, the
• 10:18
  main concept of this podcast was, like, help
• 10:20
  generate more people to come to Clubhouse and
• 10:23
  know about Clubhouse. Because, like, going for
• 10:26
  two did a great job starting this last year.
• 10:30
  And once they hit five years, you know, they
• 10:32
  went on a different direction and so forth. And
• 10:35
  they kind of paved the way for us to, like, come
• 10:37
  and try to fill in their footsteps. And it's
• 10:40
  going to be kind of hard to fill. And the big
• 10:42
  shoes. Yeah. Well, very big shoes. And, you know,
• 10:46
  like, they were good at what they were doing.
• 10:49
  And I'm definitely proud that, you know, with
• 10:51
  a little bit of their blessings that we got this
• 10:53
  going on. But, you know. And it's a lot about,
• 10:57
  like, showcasing, like, what this place has to
• 11:00
  offer. Yeah. Like, there's insane things here.
• 11:04
  Oh, for sure. For sure. Like, I tried describing
• 11:07
  it. Like, oh, yeah, we do a podcast. And then
• 11:10
  they're like, oh, you do a podcast? Oh, what's
• 11:12
  your podcast? Oh, yeah, we talk about, like,
• 11:14
  football, a bunch of other stuff. We do it at
• 11:17
  Kellogg. Oh, at the club? Like, when I explain
• 11:20
  the clubhouse, I'm like. Oh, there's this, there's
• 11:22
  this, there's this, there's this. Yeah. Oh, it's
• 11:26
  like a small place? No. No. Like, this place
• 11:31
  is massive. Yes. Like, you know what? We have
• 11:35
  the opportunity to shoot a podcast anywhere we
• 11:37
  want. We could do it in Clubhouse. We could do
• 11:39
  it in the London Knights room that was over there.
• 11:41
  Yeah, they got lots of room. There's a princess
• 11:42
  room if we really want to. You might do that
• 11:44
  for Halloween. You never know. We could do it
• 11:47
  if the Eagles keep losing. That's not the shirt.
• 11:53
  We could do this at Paradigm because Paradigm
• 11:56
  has their spirits. Yeah, Powerhouse, Paradigm.
• 12:00
  Like there's so much space here. Swing on over
• 12:03
  to the Hard Rock. Yep. Speak easy. Like just
• 12:07
  so much. Oh, sorry. Did I say that out loud?
• 12:10
  Shh. But you know what I mean. There's two of
• 12:13
  them, but shh. No, honestly this place is absolutely
• 12:16
  amazing and I'm glad that we got the opportunity
• 12:18
  to do this and I think like our biggest goal
• 12:20
  is to make sure people know that Clubhouse is
• 12:23
  here and that you can win a jersey and have a
• 12:25
  good time with like -minded people like us. Yeah.
• 12:29
  Come on out. Good food, good beer, good people.
• 12:33
  Today's a little bit quiet due to Thanksgiving.
• 12:36
  Yes, the real Thanksgiving. I see what you did
• 12:41
  there. No, and, like, another huge thing is,
• 12:44
  like, today we get to be served by one of my
• 12:46
  boys. I was actually at his wedding during the
• 12:49
  summer. So it's, like, the connections that we
• 12:51
  are building that we already have that we can
• 12:53
  now, like, you know, shout out and be like, yo,
• 12:56
  like, my buddy Silver had a wedding at Pioneer
• 12:59
  Village. It was absolutely amazing. I could say
• 13:01
  that on a podcast, and maybe there's a couple
• 13:03
  that's listened to this. Maybe. You know what?
• 13:07
  Let's get married in the Pioneer Village because
• 13:09
  the guys on the podcast said it. Well, it's nice
• 13:11
  because we're doing all this local. You can say
• 13:13
  locations like that and people will be like,
• 13:15
  oh, I've been there. Man, like. Because London,
• 13:19
  I'm sure everybody knows. London is like this
• 13:23
  weird, big, small place. Yes. It's big. There's
• 13:27
  a lot of people. There's a lot of things. But,
• 13:29
  like, there's, you know, like the six degrees
• 13:32
  of separation. There's, like, two max. With everybody.
• 13:37
  Two to three. Two to three, for sure. He's probably
• 13:40
  the connection most people have that branches
• 13:43
  off into everyone else. But, like... Hey, I don't
• 13:48
  try to find people. Right? We just run into people
• 13:50
  everywhere we go. Even when we were at the Knights
• 13:51
  game on Friday. You knew more people than I did.
• 13:54
  Maybe. Maybe. I got a few texts after. Yeah,
• 13:58
  whatever helps you feel better. Hey, I got to
• 14:01
  be able to sleep at night. Yeah. But, you know,
• 14:03
  I think having a podcast and, like, I'm going
• 14:07
  to say this. At first, I didn't understand the
• 14:12
  concept of podcasting. It's a lot of people's
• 14:16
  opinions on things and they're trying to spread
• 14:18
  their notions to a lot of things and so forth.
• 14:21
  And depending on which direction they want to
• 14:24
  go to, you can build friendships and you can
• 14:26
  end some friendships. Depending on what avenue
• 14:29
  you're going with. And now I'm doing this podcast.
• 14:33
  I kind of understand, like, there is a fence
• 14:36
  where you can offend people. I've said things
• 14:39
  on this podcast that I shouldn't have said. So
• 14:42
  then, you know, like, homunculus. You know what
• 14:45
  I mean? But, like, we're learning. It's a learning
• 14:50
  experience, man. I'm also learning about the
• 14:52
  community on the back end because a lot of the
• 14:55
  post -productions that I do, I ask people around
• 14:58
  the states. what do they think and so forth.
• 15:01
  And they've been giving me tips and so forth.
• 15:03
  And one of the biggest things is they said that
• 15:06
  our style of podcasting so far is actually pretty
• 15:09
  amazing. Well, that's good. No, honestly, like
• 15:13
  for us just starting out and it's like an interview
• 15:15
  style. Yeah. But we're talking about sports and
• 15:18
  we're not like arguing. We're not like Stephen
• 15:21
  A and Skip Bayless. Yeah, I don't know. Or Shannon
• 15:24
  Sharp. Don't worry, we won't have any sexual
• 15:27
  abuse or sexual... All right. Yeah, let's not...
• 15:30
  Let's not get that. It's the two of us, so...
• 15:33
  You know what I mean? You know what I mean? No,
• 15:35
  but it's just like we're just having a conversation
• 15:37
  and, like, seeing where this can grow. Yeah.
• 15:41
  Maybe, you know, someone else wants to start
• 15:43
  a podcast. Well, we have the foundation. We could
• 15:46
  probably work with somebody else to get another
• 15:47
  episode or another show going on. Yeah. You know,
• 15:51
  it just keeps us rolling. It's a lot of work.
• 15:54
  on the front end of it yeah once you get it sorted
• 15:57
  out get like get your procedure like all that
• 16:01
  in place you kind of it's becomes a rinse and
• 16:05
  repeat as long as you can find stuff to talk
• 16:07
  about oh for sure and we definitely can yeah
• 16:10
  i mean i guess yeah yeah well you'll do most
• 16:14
  of the talking sometimes yeah but yeah somebody's
• 16:17
  got it anybody that knows malcolm knows uh he's
• 16:22
  He has his quiet moments, so somebody's got to
• 16:24
  fill those gaps. It's true. It's true. There's
• 16:28
  times where I don't want to always be on. I'm
• 16:30
  a bartender as well, right? Yeah. So there's
• 16:33
  times when you're in bartending mode, and then
• 16:35
  there's other times where you just want to be
• 16:36
  in civilization mode. Yeah. Yeah, exactly. You
• 16:40
  can turn it on, turn it off. And sometimes it's
• 16:42
  hard to always be on. It's tiring. It is tiring.
• 16:47
  Like, there's times where I really don't want
• 16:49
  to talk to anybody, not even my dog. No, I love
• 16:54
  talking to your dog. Morales is amazing. Don't
• 16:56
  get me wrong. Yeah. But there's times where I
• 16:58
  just want to be in absolute quiet. Yeah. No,
• 17:02
  that's fair. So, yeah. It's like when you have
• 17:06
  those really rough days in the service industry
• 17:08
  and you're just getting destroyed. You drive
• 17:13
  home. Work kicks your ass so hard. You drive
• 17:16
  home, no music. Yep. Just silence. Yep. Like,
• 17:20
  I don't even have thoughts right now. I'm just
• 17:22
  getting home. Honestly, like, if there's a country
• 17:26
  concert going on or, you know, there's, like,
• 17:30
  a Knights game going on, I work at Tasting Room
• 17:32
  as well. It's a great place, but there's some
• 17:35
  times where it gets jam -packed. Yeah. Yeah,
• 17:38
  exactly. But, like, honestly, with, like, the
• 17:41
  connections we've done, it's ridiculous. It's
• 17:43
  great. Actually, one of my boys just showed up.
• 17:46
  He owns Pest Case Scenario. which is actually
• 17:49
  pretty huge. So if you ever need any situations
• 17:51
  where you have pets in your house or anything
• 17:53
  like that, our boy, just reach out to us and
• 17:55
  we'll take care of you. Shout out to Rob over
• 17:58
  there. That's what it's all about, really. Life
• 18:03
  is so much about just building connections and
• 18:07
  you don't realize what you can get through all
• 18:11
  of those random little connections you have.
• 18:16
  Exactly like that. Like, oh, you know, oh, I
• 18:18
  got a pest problem. Oh, there you go. Oh, I don't
• 18:24
  know. I got IT problems. You and I know a guy.
• 18:28
  Yeah. You know a guy. Yeah. All those little
• 18:32
  things, like knowing. It's always fun when you
• 18:36
  meet all those connections and you get to be
• 18:39
  that guy that's like, oh, I got a guy for that.
• 18:40
  Yep. But it doesn't always have to be through
• 18:43
  a podcast. Just know how you are in life. Just
• 18:47
  meet people, make connections, and use those
• 18:53
  connections. Because a lot of times you meet
• 18:55
  someone and you talk to them and you find out
• 18:57
  a whole bunch about them. You have a nice conversation
• 19:00
  with them. And then you leave, switch goes off,
• 19:04
  and they're just gone from your memory. You totally
• 19:07
  forget them. Legit. The amount of times we've
• 19:10
  had conversations, I've always thought about
• 19:12
  starting a podcast. And I usually thought it
• 19:15
  was somebody else. And I was like, wait a minute.
• 19:17
  The perfect person to start a podcast is who
• 19:19
  I usually talk to. And I was like, you know,
• 19:21
  and that's like another connection right there.
• 19:23
  We're just making it happen. Yeah. So, yeah.
• 19:28
  Well, I mean, it is also cool because, like,
• 19:31
  we met at a bar talking about football. Molly
• 19:35
  Blooms. And then. Years later, here we are at
• 19:42
  a bar talking about football. Actually, it was
• 19:45
  a Bills game. It was a Bills game where we actually
• 19:48
  became friends was at a Bills game when my buddy
• 19:51
  Nation would literally, literally I was like,
• 19:54
  I had an extra ticket. It was like, Nation, do
• 19:56
  you know anybody? Calls you up. Yeah, I was still
• 19:59
  at work. I was managing a palisade at the time.
• 20:03
  And I was like. Yeah, I mean, I'm still at work.
• 20:06
  So what time do we got to leave I'm off tomorrow
• 20:08
  Yeah, and it was the noon game. So are the one
• 20:11
  game so we had to leave bright and early So we
• 20:15
  just stayed up and y 'all did I woke up Yeah,
• 20:20
  yeah, I didn't know it didn't even know you then
• 20:21
  So at that point, I thought you lived in your
• 20:25
  car You thought I lived in my car for what no
• 20:27
  ideas. Yeah, I was like, I don't know. He's just
• 20:30
  always around Yeah, anytime someone called me,
• 20:33
  it was like I'll be five minutes away. Yeah,
• 20:35
  he's five minutes from everything. Back then,
• 20:37
  though, that's how small London really was. Yeah.
• 20:40
  Where you can be anywhere in five minutes. It
• 20:43
  really has expanded a lot, though. Yes. Like,
• 20:45
  there's so much more going on in, like, the edges
• 20:48
  of the city now. Oh, for sure. Maybe it's just
• 20:51
  because we're getting a little bit older and
• 20:53
  we're branching out. We don't go to the downtown
• 20:59
  scene. Not the same anymore. Because, you know,
• 21:02
  we're old. We're like, nah, that's loud. You
• 21:07
  know what? Next week, we should bring back a
• 21:11
  guest on our episode. Now that we've polished
• 21:13
  our steps now. Yeah, let's do it. Expand our
• 21:18
  network, if you know what I mean. All right.
• 21:21
  So if you're listening and you have a guest.
• 21:24
  you'd want to see on our podcast, send them our
• 21:28
  way? Yeah. You know what? We'll put in a poll
• 21:32
  on our Instagram to see who wants to be a guest
• 21:34
  for week seven. Yeah. I think that's a good idea.
• 21:38
  The other thing is we've got to figure out what
• 21:40
  we're going to do for American Thanksgiving.
• 21:43
  Even though we're not going to have a turkey,
• 21:45
  we've got to figure out what we're going to do
• 21:46
  for American Thanksgiving. True. What day is
• 21:51
  that? It'll be a Thursday, so we've got to take
• 21:53
  a day off from work. Oh, it is a Thursday. Right.
• 21:54
  Yeah. Yeah, that's going to be a day. So week
• 21:59
  seven, we're going to have a guest. And then,
• 22:01
  you know, let's talk with the fans and so forth
• 22:03
  and see what we're going to do. It'll be a special
• 22:05
  episode because it'll be on a Thursday. Yeah,
• 22:08
  that'll be sweet. So, yeah. All right. You want
• 22:13
  to talk about some football? The real question
• 22:15
  is, I know the first game on our list. Do you
• 22:18
  want to talk about football? I know it's... Yes,
• 22:23
  yes, because I have a public statement after.
• 22:25
  Yeah, you know what? Let's go, let's go, let's
• 22:26
  go. It's not taking the shirt off and throwing
• 22:28
  it on the ground. No, no, no. You don't want
• 22:31
  to get traded either? Or retire? Or... Well,
• 22:37
  ladies and gentlemen, this was fun. I'm done.
• 22:46
  Man. Okay. Eagles versus Giants. 17 -34 for the
• 22:53
  Giants. Man. I'll let you do your thoughts. Before
• 22:59
  we start, I'm going to say this to all coaches,
• 23:04
  staff members, janitors, GM, owner of the Philadelphia
• 23:10
  Eagles. If this... is how you want to play football
• 23:15
  for the rest of the year, let us fans know so
• 23:18
  we can boycott you for the rest of the year.
• 23:20
  Because watching that game was absolutely embarrassing.
• 23:25
  It was... Okay. First half, they were running
• 23:28
  the ball great. It was Saquon Barkley. And then
• 23:31
  second half of the game, it was just like they
• 23:36
  didn't care. Yeah. Like, it was absolutely embarrassing.
• 23:41
  Like, watching... watching that game and like
• 23:44
  you can see how hyped up New York was yes Philadelphia
• 23:48
  was in New York and you are watching two rookies
• 23:54
  not just one two take over that game yeah and
• 23:58
  yes there was a concussion protocol going on
• 24:02
  and all that other jazz I feel like that was
• 24:04
  just part of their Everyone's been making fun
• 24:07
  of these two for having CTE, concussions, and
• 24:12
  for that all to go on during the game just made
• 24:18
  it more ridiculous. I'm sorry, Jalen Hurts, if
• 24:26
  you ever get an opportunity to watch this, yes,
• 24:30
  I understand you want to take accountability
• 24:32
  for... your mistakes and so forth, like I tell
• 24:37
  our soccer team, just do better. Like, if you're
• 24:41
  scheming just to play for you, maybe you need
• 24:44
  to learn how to play with the team. Because to
• 24:48
  throw that pick to end that game, that was just
• 24:51
  a battery. Especially with A .J. Brown's wide
• 24:55
  open in the end zone. I get why A .J. Brown is
• 24:58
  hitting us with a Bible first. I also have got
• 25:01
  rumors that... Devontae Smith is also annoyed.
• 25:04
  Yeah. Because, you know, we know what works.
• 25:08
  You run the ball, because Philadelphia has always
• 25:11
  been a run -first team, then you use the play
• 25:14
  action to get your wide receivers open, and that's
• 25:17
  how you were playing last year. Now we're playing
• 25:20
  like two years ago. Yeah. When... It's run, run,
• 25:23
  run. No, they didn't run two years ago. They
• 25:26
  didn't run until after their bye, and it was
• 25:29
  like, oh, we have a run game again. Yeah, it's
• 25:33
  not working. Whatever, like, they're broken.
• 25:37
  Nick Sirianni, step up, be a head coach. Like,
• 25:40
  we saw it at the beginning of the year. You watch
• 25:43
  the games and you're just like, that's ugly.
• 25:45
  It's like the Band -Aid was they were winning
• 25:50
  games. Yeah. So everything else. Now you're not
• 25:53
  winning games. Now you're not winning games,
• 25:55
  and now it's just annoying. Yeah. Because now
• 25:57
  we see what's broken with you guys, and we've
• 25:59
  kind of saw it. We just ignored it. And now we
• 26:02
  can't ignore it. And it's back -to -back losses.
• 26:04
  There's a lot you can sweep under the rug when
• 26:07
  you're winning. Yes. It's like any business.
• 26:13
  Business is booming. There's a lot you can sweep
• 26:15
  under the rug. But then once things are getting
• 26:18
  tight, you need everyone to actually perform
• 26:22
  to be able to make it. You need that. And it
• 26:27
  shows. I'm just worried. that last year was just
• 26:33
  an anomaly, that we won it all, and Jalen Hurts
• 26:38
  was looking amazing. They also lost a lot of
• 26:41
  people. We did, but the ones that we did keep
• 26:44
  should have filled in accordingly. And a lot
• 26:48
  of the people that we got rid of tried to go
• 26:50
  on other teams and ended up getting cut. I guess
• 26:54
  that's fair, but... I just mean, like, it's a
• 27:00
  different team than this year. Like, this year.
• 27:02
  Like, they don't have the same mentality. And
• 27:06
  I thought, like, we lost our offensive coordinator
• 27:10
  to New Orleans. And obviously, New Orleans, they're
• 27:16
  a different story. They're rebuilding. That's
• 27:19
  a long project. Yeah, they're a big rebuild.
• 27:21
  But Detroit lost their OC and DC, took them one
• 27:26
  game, and the culture's back. Yeah. The Eagles
• 27:30
  won a Super Bowl, lost their OC, and it looks
• 27:35
  like a totally different team. Like, honestly,
• 27:37
  we look like we could have lost to the Panthers.
• 27:42
  Yeah. I feel like it's a lot of a Super Bowl
• 27:46
  hangover, though. Like, you win the Super Bowl,
• 27:50
  everyone's like, okay, yeah, we got one. You
• 27:52
  have a target on your back. And because of the
• 27:55
  style they play, they're not as aggressive now.
• 27:58
  It's true. Like, last year they were winning
• 28:01
  because they're super aggressive, super tough,
• 28:05
  gritty, but they've lost that. And, like, I feel
• 28:12
  like the effort of the guys aren't as hungry
• 28:14
  because they're just like, whatever, we'll still
• 28:16
  win. Unless for some reason in the organization
• 28:19
  they want to focus on being an underdog again
• 28:22
  so then they can show up again. But that's too
• 28:25
  much work. You don't want to be get to on top
• 28:30
  just to tank so you can be an underdog. No. No.
• 28:36
  Like, no. That's silly. But Cam Scadaboo. Cam
• 28:44
  Scadaboo. Crayons. Needs to be sponsored by Crayons.
• 28:48
  Crayola. Get him a sponsorship. Running with,
• 28:51
  like, he's changing the way running backs are
• 28:55
  again. Yeah. And it's great to see. It's like,
• 29:00
  man, he's back to, like, the old school, just
• 29:05
  blasting through. It also shows, like, the impact
• 29:10
  of, like, having the right people in your organization
• 29:12
  to light a fire on everyone else. Like, Skadaboo
• 29:16
  and Jackson Dart, the whole team is playing on
• 29:19
  another level. And, like, even that one play
• 29:22
  that Russell Wilson had where he... He threw
• 29:24
  it to the ground, and he had the whole crowd
• 29:26
  boo him. Yeah. It was crazy to see now with Jackson
• 29:30
  Dart. Like, he's dancing. When you said when
• 29:33
  Russell Wilson threw it to the ground, I forgot
• 29:35
  Russell Wilson was on the Giants for a second,
• 29:37
  and I thought you were making a horrible Jalen
• 29:39
  Hurts joke. No, no, no, no. But, yeah, no, no.
• 29:44
  He immediately got booed. He immediately got
• 29:46
  booed because it showed you how bad he was. Yeah.
• 29:51
  And, like, the passing of the torch, even though
• 29:53
  there was really no torch. That's what they needed.
• 29:56
  I wish the Eagles had that. Yeah. Did you see
• 30:00
  the crazy stat that I feel like could have not
• 30:05
  been a stat from last year because of last year,
• 30:08
  but Saquon Barkley has never had a three -touchdown
• 30:14
  game. He's never run three touchdowns in. That's
• 30:19
  100 % because Jalen Hurts steals all his touchdowns
• 30:22
  once it's inside the five. But Skadaboo gets
• 30:26
  the three. It wasn't a Barkley versus. It wasn't
• 30:31
  supposed to be. It wasn't supposed to be that
• 30:34
  battle, but they're looking at it like that.
• 30:37
  Because I guarantee all of the Giants fans are
• 30:41
  looking at it going, yep, we don't need you.
• 30:44
  We got our guy now. We don't miss you anymore.
• 30:47
  Yeah, exactly. Like, the herd is over. Yeah.
• 30:50
  Yep. They found their two -piece. Yeah. The two
• 30:55
  -piece chicken. Yeah. You know what I mean? Man,
• 30:59
  that... Those two are clowns, though. Like, the
• 31:02
  high -fiving the ref. Oh, man. That made me laugh.
• 31:05
  Absolutely stunning, though. Everyone's like,
• 31:07
  that should have been a penalty. Like, whatever.
• 31:10
  Who cares? That's funny. Yeah, but... Like, it
• 31:14
  would have just been like... 15 and like they
• 31:17
  would have kicked an extra long extra point and
• 31:19
  it wouldn't have made a difference in the game
• 31:21
  anyway but like that's funny it's not but like
• 31:26
  i said uh and from now on on this podcast we
• 31:30
  will not refer to the philadelphia eagles as
• 31:32
  the philadelphia eagles they are now the philadelphia
• 31:35
  pigeons and i'll be designing a philadelphia
• 31:38
  pigeons t -shirt which you'll be able to get
• 31:40
  at the milk away apparel sometime this week i'll
• 31:44
  be posting it But it was... Hey, and if you have
• 31:49
  a pigeon in your attic, I got a guy for that.
• 31:54
  Yeah, there's some pigeons on the field, that's
• 31:55
  for sure. They were playing so passive. It was
• 32:00
  bad. And I am now a member... I'm a member of
• 32:05
  the fan club of the Philadelphia Pigeons. Yeah,
• 32:07
  yikes. Once they get their stuff together...
• 32:12
  Then I can call them the Eagles again. But right
• 32:14
  now, they're the Pigeons. Yeah, it'll be like,
• 32:16
  they got to elevate. It'll be like Pigeons and
• 32:20
  like, I don't know, maybe like a Seagull. Then
• 32:22
  like, I'd say Falcon, but the Falcons are playing
• 32:26
  right now and they're actually playing like Falcons.
• 32:28
  So, I don't know. We're not a predator right
• 32:32
  now. Could be the Vultures. No, even Vultures
• 32:37
  pick on prey meat. Yeah, no, I just meant like
• 32:40
  Jalen Hurts stealing touchdowns. True. True.
• 32:43
  He is a vulture. Touchdown vulture. Okay. I like
• 32:47
  that. Just throwing it out there. Well, we've
• 32:49
  got to get there. They've still got to figure
• 32:53
  it out. Yeah, you know what? If they win a game
• 32:55
  next week, we'll elevate them to another animal
• 32:57
  that they deserve. Yeah. One day, they could
• 33:00
  be a majestic Bengal tiger. But probably not.
• 33:05
  No. No. No. No. No. all right it would make no
• 33:09
  sense if it was like fly bangles fly they'd just
• 33:12
  be very confusing fly pigeon fly yeah poop pigeon
• 33:16
  poop yeah all right next game is the sunday night
• 33:21
  or sunday morning game oh speaking of poop oh
• 33:26
  man okay so i had to drop my buddy graham to
• 33:30
  the airport uh on sunday so i missed the game
• 33:34
  But I heard I didn't miss a lot due to the fact
• 33:37
  that the Jets have a magic way of playing football
• 33:43
  where they know how to bring the other team down.
• 33:46
  It's true. They just kind of drag everyone else
• 33:49
  into the gutter that they're crawling out of.
• 33:52
  And then they just crawl back into the gutter
• 33:54
  after the game. Hey, but shout out to everyone
• 33:58
  watching this. You all had more passing yards.
• 34:03
  than Justin Fields this week. Unless you somehow
• 34:10
  threw for minus 11. Yes. That is ridiculous.
• 34:15
  I mean, nine sacks has, like, got sacked for,
• 34:18
  like, 45 yards or something like that. I'm sorry.
• 34:25
  Broncos, you beat the Eagles by playing a master
• 34:30
  class game. Yeah, I don't know. You go to the
• 34:34
  Jets, and there are just some layups that you
• 34:36
  just go through your procedures and just do it.
• 34:39
  Yes, you still won. But come on. But do you think,
• 34:44
  like, the Jets are so bad that everyone just
• 34:50
  doesn't even game plan for them at all? These
• 34:53
  are professionals. They have to. You have coaches
• 34:56
  for a reason. Well, that's true. But, like, they
• 34:58
  don't do specific things. maybe they didn't tackle
• 35:02
  this week because it was the jets but they didn't
• 35:05
  have to like yeah that was an ugly game it's
• 35:11
  kind of rude that they uh shipped that out of
• 35:14
  the country i'm glad they did that's the international
• 35:17
  that was yeah game definitely that's the thing
• 35:22
  but yeah no honestly it's sad to see that when
• 35:26
  the jets do play that they bring down every single
• 35:29
  team. You know what? Play the Eagles. You'll
• 35:31
  actually have a fair game. Sorry, Pigeons. Yeah.
• 35:35
  Play the Pigeons. You'll actually have a fair
• 35:37
  game. Pigeons will fly right into that jet engine.
• 35:42
  Come out as feathers on the other side. Damn.
• 35:48
  Seahawks versus the Jags. I do not trust the
• 35:53
  Jags. They're inconsistent. Okay, so last week,
• 36:01
  while we were doing the podcast, you know, it
• 36:05
  was the Chiefs and the Jags. And honestly, when
• 36:10
  you looked at it, Trevor Lawrence came up and
• 36:15
  showed up. Like, almost screwed up on the final
• 36:19
  touchdown. But then he won the game by looking
• 36:22
  like an Australian breakdancer. Yep. But there
• 36:27
  was hope. We were like, Was this his breakout
• 36:29
  game? And then he played the Seahawks. But it's...
• 36:33
  Yeah. Yeah. But the Seahawks are having a good
• 36:38
  year. Like, they lost last week a real hard game
• 36:42
  against the Bucs. Okay. But that was against
• 36:47
  an MVP. I'm calling it now. Baker Mayfield. MVP
• 36:50
  of the league because there's no other quarterback
• 36:53
  playing to his level. Not even Patrick Mahomes.
• 36:56
  No. There is no other quarterback right now playing
• 36:59
  better, and I can't even say Josh Allen's playing
• 37:01
  better. He's not. No. Like, right now, there's
• 37:04
  a clear MVP, and I think the race is almost done.
• 37:08
  Nah, it's week six. There's still tons of season
• 37:10
  left. It's week six. Yes. But, like, right now,
• 37:14
  the only person who's running away with it is
• 37:16
  Baker Mayfield. I don't know. I could see if
• 37:22
  Lamar comes back. and turns the Ravens completely
• 37:27
  around, and their offense starts going off and
• 37:31
  off and off again, and he's playing really well,
• 37:35
  I could see a really solid case for him because
• 37:39
  obviously he's the most valuable player because
• 37:42
  when he stopped playing, they became absolute
• 37:46
  garbage. But also, Baker's doing it with... Third,
• 37:51
  fourth, fifth string, probably sixth string receivers,
• 37:56
  some third, fifth string guards. But here's the
• 38:00
  thing. If Lamar does that, he'll be the MVP of
• 38:10
  that team. Oh, yeah. I just mean that's a strong
• 38:13
  case. But it's the MVP of the league. Yeah. And
• 38:16
  who's been marketing the best right now? Who's
• 38:20
  the advocate for this year? Right? Lamar's injured.
• 38:24
  He will not be able to win that because right
• 38:26
  now, yeah, we're painting to him because he's
• 38:28
  missed a few games. If they come back and make
• 38:30
  playoffs, it doesn't take away from what Baker's
• 38:33
  been doing. He's been electrifying the team as
• 38:36
  a whole. And plus, Baker's honestly ridiculous.
• 38:41
  He's playing unreal. But then back to the team,
• 38:44
  Sam Donald is kind of doing the same thing for
• 38:47
  the Seahawks. And they got rid of... the second
• 38:51
  best receiver on that team, which was DK Metcalf,
• 38:54
  and they have JSN. Yeah, he's playing sick. He's
• 38:58
  got, like, 700 yards in six games. So... He had,
• 39:02
  like, he had, what, something like 1 ,100 last
• 39:05
  year? I think the Vikings screwed up in letting
• 39:08
  Sam Donald go and putting all their faith in...
• 39:11
  Yeah, but at some point, you got to take the
• 39:14
  leap. Like, they... When you use a lot of draft
• 39:17
  stock and pick up a quarterback, you've got to
• 39:20
  get the right one. And I think they had the right
• 39:23
  one. The last two games of last year don't show
• 39:27
  you what he did all season. And now I'm looking
• 39:30
  at him on the Seahawks and it's like a system
• 39:32
  that's working with him. He's proven again. The
• 39:36
  only problem that we ever have is come playoff
• 39:39
  time, is he going to be the same person? It's
• 39:41
  true. But, I mean, I feel like with quarterbacks,
• 39:47
  they look at Sam Darnold like he is adequate.
• 39:53
  Adequate, exactly. You're like, that's your base.
• 39:58
  You need better than that to win a Super Bowl.
• 40:03
  You need better than that. Well, with the Philadelphia
• 40:05
  Pigeons, you just have to have the wide receiver.
• 40:09
  You guys should trade for Russell Wilson. Stop.
• 40:11
  Stop. It's the same thing. Probably cheaper.
• 40:14
  Stop. Stop. Get you a defense, maybe. I don't
• 40:18
  know. Rob, can I get a pigeon call? Thank you,
• 40:22
  sir. No. You know what? You know what I'm going
• 40:27
  to do? One day we'll have a soundboard. Until
• 40:29
  then, we have Rob. Well, technically, I'm going
• 40:31
  to get Rob to record himself doing a pigeon for
• 40:34
  it. So that any time we talk about the pigeons,
• 40:36
  I'll press a button on here and say we'll play.
• 40:39
  I can make that happen. See, there you go. Progress.
• 40:45
  Steps. There's levels to this. Like we said,
• 40:47
  we have a podcast and it's a work in progress.
• 40:49
  Every week we get better. Only at the Clubhouse.
• 40:55
  And wherever you're watching from the internet.
• 40:59
  At this rate, everyone's at the Clubhouse because
• 41:02
  they're here with us. Charges and Dolphins. So
• 41:09
  that game, was it 29 -27? Yes, it was. Except
• 41:13
  it was more like 29 -13 until the end. But the
• 41:22
  Chargers are having a rough time. They've had
• 41:25
  some injuries. When Joel comes back on their
• 41:28
  O -line, their O -line will be a lot better.
• 41:32
  It's funny that the Bengals fan is saying that.
• 41:35
  Oh yeah, I'm well aware. of how hard it is for
• 41:38
  a team to win when your O -line is trash. Like,
• 41:42
  that's one of those, it's just one of them things.
• 41:44
  It's one of those realities, and you're the best
• 41:46
  expert on that as a fan. Yeah, I've been depressed
• 41:49
  about it for quite some time. But you see all
• 41:52
  these teams, like, they'll randomly start being
• 41:53
  good, and you'll be like, oh, man, is this quarterback
• 41:55
  really good? Or, like, actually, no, they just
• 41:57
  have a really good O -line, and they have a quarterback
• 41:59
  they're not paying a lot. But, like, the Dolphins.
• 42:05
  Okay. They got some problems. The Chargers are
• 42:09
  hurt on O -line. Yeah. This should have been
• 42:12
  a clear opportunity for Miami to get that win.
• 42:16
  Like, what's going on in Miami? They've had some,
• 42:21
  like, player meetings. People are showing up
• 42:23
  late. People are not showing up at all. They're
• 42:26
  having a bunch of leadership problems. I know
• 42:29
  Tua Blames says, oh, the guys need to. Like,
• 42:33
  no, you need to. Like, as a team, we need to
• 42:36
  – as a leader on the team, you need to. Yep.
• 42:40
  Like, I think that's the part that he's missing.
• 42:43
  Also, losing Tyreek, gigantic blow. But they
• 42:48
  barely even passed him this year or last year.
• 42:50
  It's true. But having that weapon on the field
• 42:55
  scares offenses. Yeah, you're not wrong. Because
• 42:58
  you knew at any point in time that could be a
• 43:00
  70 -yard touchdown. That is true. You miss a
• 43:03
  – You miss one tackle. Miss one run. He's gone.
• 43:12
  But the whole team was built on speed, so it's
• 43:14
  not just Tyreek. But they're a lot less. They're
• 43:16
  not as scary now. That's fair. That's fair. HN's
• 43:19
  doing pretty good, though. Yeah. All right. Clear
• 43:25
  winner. Rams versus Ravens. 17 -3. It's a lot
• 43:30
  lower than I expected. Yeah, the Rams are having
• 43:34
  a rough one, though. Well, Pook and Nakua's injured.
• 43:37
  Yeah, exactly. I hope he comes back soon, but
• 43:41
  I know he sprained his ankle, so I don't know
• 43:45
  if that's going to... I know he's day -to -day
• 43:47
  right now, but it could be next week, could be
• 43:52
  two, three weeks. You never know, but that seems
• 43:58
  kind of Cooper -Cuppie. Stafford's got a new
• 44:03
  favorite receiver. Gets injured. Sprays his ankle.
• 44:07
  Hopefully he doesn't come back too soon and makes
• 44:09
  it worse because that's kind of exactly what
• 44:13
  happened. It's funny how things just automatically
• 44:17
  repeat themselves. Yeah. It seems to be happening
• 44:21
  like that a lot. For a lot of teams. Yeah. But
• 44:25
  the Ravens, oh, they got problems. They got almost
• 44:29
  as – they got – See, I wish the Bengals could
• 44:35
  play the Ravens right now before Lamar comes
• 44:37
  back, even though they're going into a bye week.
• 44:40
  Yeah. Because I want to see which team wants
• 44:44
  to lose worse. Because at this point, it feels
• 44:47
  like they both want to lose. Well, if you watch
• 44:50
  that game, though, if you watch in the fourth
• 44:52
  quarter, it almost looked like Lamar was back
• 44:55
  with Tyler Huntley. He has a similar style. Things
• 45:00
  were moving. Yeah. Like, how that offense should
• 45:03
  have... But they had Cooper Rush. But Cooper
• 45:05
  Rush, it's a totally different style. Like, you
• 45:08
  can't take... You have to have a backup that
• 45:11
  plays a similar style. Yes. So things don't change.
• 45:14
  Yeah, so... Some people don't have to change
• 45:17
  based on quarterbacks. Yeah, because, like, some
• 45:20
  teams can do it, but it's hard to do. True. Like,
• 45:25
  you get used to one guy running around back there,
• 45:28
  and then all of a sudden you... No, now you have
• 45:30
  a pocket passer. This is confusing. We'll see
• 45:37
  how they... They got the bye week coming up,
• 45:40
  so I think Lamar Jackson is supposed to be coming
• 45:42
  back after that. The season's not lost for the
• 45:46
  Ravens. They still have an opportunity because
• 45:47
  the only team in that bracket that's running
• 45:52
  away with things... The Steelers, and I don't
• 45:54
  think they'll run very fast. No, they'll just...
• 45:57
  execute properly. Yeah. Because their team is
• 46:02
  always just adequate. They're playing better
• 46:05
  than adequate this year, though. Yeah, well,
• 46:08
  they still need... I feel like they still need
• 46:11
  a few things. But that's what happens when everybody
• 46:15
  is... Like, the whole team is playing adequate.
• 46:17
  You don't have any weak links to, like, give
• 46:19
  up silly things. And the culture's... Their culture's
• 46:23
  set. Yeah. Cardinals and... Colts. Hey, Colts
• 46:29
  are back at it. Yeah, wow. I mean, I think we
• 46:35
  all expected that. Honestly, it's weird being
• 46:38
  like, nah, going into that game, I was expecting
• 46:40
  it to be a blowout for the Colts. Which is weird
• 46:44
  to say. Yeah, I know. It seems wrong, but it's
• 46:49
  what my honest thoughts were. But they still
• 46:53
  won. New battlefield's coming out, so Kyler Murray's
• 46:58
  injured. I don't know if there's a correlation
• 47:01
  there, but... Wait until the new COD comes out,
• 47:05
  man. It's going to be even worse. Yeah. Yeah,
• 47:08
  it's going to be even worse when that happens.
• 47:10
  Yeah, we'll see. Hey, I have Marvin Harrison.
• 47:16
  Marvin Harrison Jr.? Yep, get rid of him. Well,
• 47:20
  he's left the game in concussion protocol. Yeah,
• 47:23
  but I mean, just get rid of him. There's no point.
• 47:25
  He's not. Yeah. He's not syncing up with Kyler
• 47:29
  Murray well enough. I don't think he's going
• 47:31
  to sync up with anyone. It looks like he doesn't
• 47:33
  care. Yeah. Like, I got my money. I made the
• 47:37
  NFL. One of those legacy things. Yeah. You're
• 47:40
  just like, yeah, I did it. My dad did it. I did
• 47:43
  it. Bronny James. Yeah. No, no. No, Bronny's
• 47:46
  actually doing his thing. But, like, trying to
• 47:48
  at least. He's trying to. He's trying to. Yeah.
• 47:52
  I guess we'll see. Yeah, man. Cowboys and Panthers.
• 47:57
  Rico Dowdle. That just makes me laugh. I'm sure
• 48:02
  that game brought a smile back to your face.
• 48:06
  Yes and no. In an elimination pool, I picked
• 48:10
  the Cowboys, and the Cowboys let me down. You
• 48:14
  got to stop doing these elimination pools. Yeah.
• 48:18
  So I was in one with the Cowboys, and then I
• 48:21
  have one for the Bills. Or at least tell me when
• 48:24
  you're doing an elimination pool so I can bet
• 48:26
  on the other team. You saw me bet on the Cowboys.
• 48:29
  Yeah, that's true. Oh, man. Well, such is life.
• 48:34
  Yeah, I got eliminated for a layup. This should
• 48:37
  have been a layup. Like, how are you them boys
• 48:40
  when the guy who beat you can't even see you
• 48:43
  get over his lineman? I don't know, but it's
• 48:46
  funny. I think George Pickens is going to demand,
• 48:50
  like, he's entertaining. Like him hurtling people,
• 48:56
  carrying the ball in one hand like this, running
• 49:00
  around. But the contract negotiations coming
• 49:07
  up this season with him and Jerry Jones is going
• 49:10
  to be hilarious. He's probably not going to pay
• 49:12
  them. No. Because they're already paying CD,
• 49:16
  and hopefully CD comes back soon for them. Well,
• 49:18
  okay. The other aspect is Dak doesn't need CD.
• 49:24
  Yeah. Yeah, but I feel like... Doctors needs
• 49:28
  a defense. Yeah. This kind of sound familiar?
• 49:32
  Like... Yeah. When I look at the Cowboys... Yeah,
• 49:38
  but that's different than the Bengals. I know,
• 49:39
  I know. Because, like, the Joe Burrow -Jamar
• 49:42
  Chase connection, that's not like a... This quarterback
• 49:46
  gets a really good receiver. But you guys didn't
• 49:48
  need T. Higgins. Yeah, we probably could have
• 49:52
  used other pieces. Like, keeping Jamar Chase,
• 49:56
  I get it. Tee Higgins, you should have let him
• 49:58
  go. Yeah. And worked on your defense. We'll see.
• 50:03
  That's the difference. That's the difference.
• 50:04
  But, like, you know, you have CeeDee Lamb. Dak
• 50:07
  Prescott is, again, to the fans out there. Playing
• 50:13
  well. I'm still saying this about Jerry Jones.
• 50:15
  Dak is playing like an MVP quarterback. It sucks
• 50:18
  to say. Yeah, but he always does at this point
• 50:21
  in the season. I know. It's more clear now because
• 50:26
  he's going to get even more votes because of
• 50:28
  the defense. True, but how many years did they
• 50:32
  win 12, 13 games? They've been solid. Right.
• 50:45
  You want to take over the Patriots and the Saints
• 50:47
  game? I'll be right back. All right. The Patriots
• 50:53
  are interesting this year. Like, Drake May is
• 50:55
  playing ridiculous. Like, I don't know how many
• 50:58
  people watched that game. I know a lot of people
• 51:01
  don't really pay too much attention to the Saints
• 51:04
  because they're in a big rebuild. But the Patriots
• 51:10
  are playing really well. Drake May is looking
• 51:13
  kind of like Josh Allen when he's playing well.
• 51:21
  And the Saints, I was actually shocked that Camaro
• 51:26
  still wants to play for them. I'm pretty sure
• 51:29
  they talked to him and all these trade talks
• 51:33
  going around. And he actually is like, no, I
• 51:38
  want to stay here. When people are saying, oh,
• 51:41
  you could easily get traded to a contender. They
• 51:47
  could ship him off to any of these other teams
• 51:50
  that have lost their running backs. They need
• 51:52
  help. But somehow, he just really likes it there.
• 51:59
  I guess New Orleans is fun to play in. But Spencer
• 52:04
  Radler is clearly learning a lot. Obviously,
• 52:10
  rookie quarterbacks, there's a lot of growth
• 52:13
  there. They're coming around. Patriots came around.
• 52:19
  Vrabels, turns out that's actually working pretty
• 52:22
  well, I feel like. What do you think? Vrabels
• 52:25
  doing pretty good in... Patriots are back. Yeah.
• 52:28
  Like, honestly, Patriots are fun to watch. Would
• 52:33
  you say it's kind of annoying that the Patriots
• 52:34
  are back? I mean, I guess they had a really rough
• 52:37
  run there for a bit. It's almost looking like
• 52:40
  the start of... But it's a different style. Yeah.
• 52:46
  The defense is back. Yeah. Like, when you, like,
• 52:50
  compare Tom Brady and Drake May, and I'm not
• 52:52
  trying to, like... They're not even remotely
• 52:53
  the same. Compare, compare. But, like, the formula
• 52:56
  is there. Yeah. The quarterback, tall, takes
• 53:02
  the risk, listens to their coaches, does what
• 53:06
  he's supposed to do, has his wide receiver, has
• 53:09
  a core group. If you had digs this week, I feel
• 53:14
  bad for you because you didn't really do much.
• 53:16
  He did do something. He had a pass interference
• 53:18
  penalty. If you needed positive out of him, I
• 53:23
  apologize. If he didn't have the pass interference,
• 53:27
  then that would have been like a 13 -point play
• 53:29
  for you guys, for everybody. Not for me. For
• 53:33
  anybody that has him. 54 -yard touchdown? But,
• 53:38
  like, overall, they're back. Yeah. And it's fun
• 53:42
  to watch them again. But it's also nice because
• 53:46
  they sucked for a bit. And now you're just like,
• 53:48
  okay, nice. Now they're actually coming back.
• 53:50
  So now the people that are rooting for them now,
• 53:54
  you're like, oh, you guys were the ones that
• 53:55
  were in it for the long haul. Yeah, you're not
• 53:57
  just a Bay Wagon. Didn't just switch over to
• 54:00
  Tampa Bay once times got tough. Because, like,
• 54:03
  I don't know about you, but I got a lot of buddies
• 54:05
  that are Pats fans. Well, we met because I'm
• 54:08
  a Pats fan. Yeah, exactly. You and I would not
• 54:11
  be hosting a podcast right now if it wasn't for
• 54:13
  a Pats fan. Exactly. Nation, this is for you.
• 54:19
  Yeah, I borrowed his Tom Brady jersey so I could
• 54:22
  yell at strangers in Buffalo. Yep. That was super
• 54:24
  fun. That was fitting, though, because Buffalo
• 54:27
  was bad, bad. Like how they're playing tonight.
• 54:29
  Yeah. Yeah, it's not gotten better. What was
• 54:40
  I getting at here? Pats are back. Yeah, they're
• 54:42
  back. But it's just nice because the buddies
• 54:46
  you have that were Pats fans and have been like,
• 54:49
  I've been a Pats fan for years, and you're just
• 54:52
  like, whatever, man, they've been good for years.
• 54:54
  You just jumped on the bandwagon and never got
• 54:56
  off. But also most of them jumped on the bandwagon
• 54:59
  when they were like, I don't know, seven. True,
• 55:03
  true. They were just good forever. Yeah. But
• 55:08
  it's nice when you see teams come up, like random
• 55:12
  teams come up, because you're just like fans
• 55:15
  start popping up out of the woodwork or admitting
• 55:17
  that they're fans of them again. Because it's
• 55:19
  not embarrassing anymore. Yeah. All right. Browns
• 55:25
  versus Steelers. Speaking of embarrassing fan
• 55:28
  bases. Okay. Okay. Okay. The score was 23 -9.
• 55:38
  Yeah. When a game is that bad, at some point,
• 55:44
  you know what? Things are not working. I'm going
• 55:46
  to put in my backup quarterback. 23 -9 isn't
• 55:50
  that bad, though. That's two scores. When the
• 55:56
  game was that bad. Okay. Time is coming. Like,
• 56:04
  the writing is on the wall. I think they're just
• 56:08
  trying to exhaust, like, let him have two, three.
• 56:14
  I'm sure the plan for the beginning was give
• 56:16
  him, like, three, four, five games. They're not
• 56:20
  paying either of them, and they're not going
• 56:22
  anywhere this season. They're paying nine quarterbacks
• 56:23
  right now. They're still paying Deshaun Watson.
• 56:25
  Yeah. Right? I'm the Browns. I'm the Browns.
• 56:31
  I'm going to ship. My starting quarterback of
• 56:33
  the season over to the Bengals. Thank you. I
• 56:38
  appreciate that. Who's in my division? What?
• 56:41
  That's just silly. What? They have no idea what
• 56:44
  they're doing over there. Come on. I like that
• 56:47
  they're paying Kenny Pickett $8 ,000. Yes, they're
• 56:49
  still paying Kenny Pickett. They're paying Deshaun
• 56:52
  Watson. They're paying so many people, you can't
• 56:58
  even list them off. Yeah, they're literally...
• 57:02
  Too many. They're paying too many quarterbacks
• 57:03
  right now. And this would have all been avoided
• 57:07
  if they kept Baker Mayfield on their team. MVP,
• 57:12
  Baker Mayfield. Who's having an MVP this year?
• 57:15
  Now, you can't predict that far in the future.
• 57:17
  No. That's impossible. But that comes down to,
• 57:19
  like, different situations. Some situations,
• 57:22
  like, the whole Rico Dowdle not doing anything
• 57:26
  in Dallas and then going to the Panthers and
• 57:28
  lighting it up. But you can't predict that. But
• 57:31
  he was going there. Well, you kind of can see
• 57:34
  it because Dallas didn't really have that much
• 57:36
  of a run game with McCartney. Yeah. And their
• 57:42
  organization was a little bit different. Don't
• 57:44
  get me wrong. Yeah, I can see that because Zeke
• 57:48
  had a flash out of that once he left. But then
• 57:51
  Zeke will always be Zeke. Yeah. And he screwed
• 57:55
  up his career in that aspect. And that's that.
• 57:59
  I'm the Browns. Oh, man. I'm just glad they're
• 58:06
  in our division. I feel bad for the fans. They're
• 58:12
  very, very loyal, and their organization does
• 58:15
  not know how to run an organization. No, and
• 58:17
  I feel like they're always taking those long
• 58:20
  shots on things, and they're just wrong all the
• 58:23
  time. There is some things to be said where you
• 58:26
  need to take risks in life. But sometimes you've
• 58:28
  got to wait. The Bengals are always taking a
• 58:30
  risk. They're not taking the right risk. They're
• 58:33
  not doing calculated risk. They're just like,
• 58:34
  I'm just going to throw a dart and see if it
• 58:36
  works. It's absolutely amazing to see other organizations
• 58:40
  look at the Browns and be like, I'm not going
• 58:42
  to do that. Yeah. You know what I mean? And the
• 58:46
  fans keep coming back year after year. You know
• 58:49
  what? Maybe they're going to get it right. Maybe
• 58:51
  they're going to figure something out. Maybe,
• 58:53
  maybe, maybe. But at a certain point, you look
• 58:56
  at it and you're like. three games into the season,
• 58:59
  you're like, nope, not this year. Or maybe not
• 59:02
  this century. Maybe not in my lifetime. But there
• 59:06
  was a time when you probably thought like that
• 59:08
  about the Eagles. Yes and no. Could be today.
• 59:14
  This might be my time. And we're not the Eagles.
• 59:18
  We are the pigeons. Get it right. True, true.
• 59:23
  But at least, since I'm a Pigeons fan, we had
• 59:33
  hope because we knew if it wasn't the Giants,
• 59:38
  Giants had their Tom Brady era. Then you had
• 59:45
  Dallas, and Dallas will always be Dallas. We
• 59:46
  knew they were never going to really win. Before
• 59:49
  now, the Washington Commanders were always bad.
• 59:53
  I was always hopeful. That will always get to
• 59:56
  the playoffs. Yeah. You know what I mean? I had
• 59:58
  that hope. Yeah, the path is there. Yeah. We
• 1:00:00
  knew we're one or two games away and blah, blah.
• 1:00:03
  It'll eventually happen. But being a Browns fan,
• 1:00:06
  you're like, Bengals are building an organization.
• 1:00:09
  They're not building an O -line, but they're
• 1:00:11
  building an organization. As a Browns fan, you
• 1:00:14
  have to be like, well, okay, so we have to get
• 1:00:17
  at least 10 wins to get into the playoffs because...
• 1:00:22
  Well, regardless, the Steelers are going to have
• 1:00:25
  nine. Yep. And then we've got to beat out the
• 1:00:29
  Bengals. They could be hot. They could be not.
• 1:00:33
  Who knows? Ravens could be up, could be down.
• 1:00:36
  They've been up a lot. That's the difference
• 1:00:39
  between being a Pigeons fan and being a Browns
• 1:00:41
  fan. Yeah. You know the path. And that path hasn't
• 1:00:48
  changed in years. Yeah. Except when they had
• 1:00:51
  Baker Mayfield. Yeah. That brief glimpse, and
• 1:00:55
  then they got rid of him because they were like,
• 1:00:56
  oh, we weren't winning as much as we wanted.
• 1:01:00
  Like, that's one of those, like, you wanted to
• 1:01:07
  be up here, you were down here, but you made
• 1:01:10
  it to here, and then you were like, nah, we'll
• 1:01:13
  just start from the bottom again. But it took
• 1:01:16
  you so long to get there. But here's the sad
• 1:01:18
  part. Last year, the Steelers had Russell Wilson
• 1:01:21
  and Justin Field as their quarterback. And in
• 1:01:25
  a year, they built a complete team. How depressing
• 1:01:29
  would that be? Like getting around, sending both
• 1:01:32
  of those guys to New York dumpster fires. That's
• 1:01:37
  the point I'm getting at. In a year, they made
• 1:01:41
  the right calls, made the right decisions, and
• 1:01:45
  now the Steelers are a complete team compared
• 1:01:48
  to... The Browns were year after year after year
• 1:01:52
  of the same thing. Yes, I get it. They went all
• 1:01:55
  in on Deshaun Watson. I think the Browns need
• 1:01:57
  to just stop drafting quarterbacks because they're
• 1:02:00
  not good at it. The Browns just need to, I don't
• 1:02:04
  know. Well, if you had Deshaun Watson, that should
• 1:02:09
  have been like, you paid him. And we knew about
• 1:02:13
  the sexual assault cases before y 'all took them.
• 1:02:16
  And you took them anyways. Yeah. And now look
• 1:02:19
  at it. So a Brown will always be a Brown. Yeah,
• 1:02:23
  the Browns is the Browns. The Browns are the
• 1:02:27
  Browns, and Tom was getting nine. Shit. All right,
• 1:02:31
  Titans and Raiders, 10 -20. Raiders finally beat
• 1:02:35
  a game, or won a game. Yeah, well, yeah. Should
• 1:02:40
  have picked them in your survivor pool. I should
• 1:02:42
  have. I think I saw the report today that the
• 1:02:46
  Titans just fired their head coach. They did.
• 1:02:48
  Yeah. So it's official. Coach firing season is
• 1:02:54
  upon us. So I'm thinking there's going to be
• 1:02:58
  more heads. Heads are going to be rolling this
• 1:03:00
  week, maybe next week. Yeah. There's some coaches
• 1:03:04
  on the real hot seat. Like we were just talking
• 1:03:05
  about the Browns. The Jets. The Browns, the Jets,
• 1:03:09
  the Dolphins. Yep. I think after, because the
• 1:03:15
  Dolphins play the Browns next week. And one of
• 1:03:19
  them is firing a coach. That's my guess. I think
• 1:03:23
  Stefanski might get fired, though. Yeah. Something's
• 1:03:30
  got to give. Obviously, the Titans have had a
• 1:03:35
  rough go. But at the same time, what rookie quarterbacks
• 1:03:43
  need is... Yep. And you know you're not going
• 1:03:51
  to win. You're probably not going to make the
• 1:03:55
  playoffs with a rookie quarterback. Yeah. And
• 1:03:57
  you're definitely not going to win a Super Bowl
• 1:03:59
  with a rookie quarterback. But you've got to
• 1:04:00
  show progress. But it takes time, though. Like
• 1:04:05
  a podcast, it's a work in progress. Yeah. You
• 1:04:08
  get better every week. You have more confidence
• 1:04:10
  every week. You change things every week. rookie
• 1:04:16
  quarterbacks only had so much time to work with
• 1:04:21
  the head coach, work with that coaching staff,
• 1:04:23
  learn that system. What do you expect? I don't
• 1:04:27
  know. Sometimes I feel like it's too early when
• 1:04:30
  you've got rookies, but at the same time, when
• 1:04:33
  they're just doing weird stuff all over the place.
• 1:04:38
  Even though we're here in London, I would love
• 1:04:42
  to have an opportunity just to go to... you know,
• 1:04:45
  the Titans facility, just to see how the coaching
• 1:04:48
  is going on because it looks like there's none.
• 1:04:52
  Yeah, it's hard to see. So. Yeah. All right.
• 1:05:00
  49ers and the Buccaneers. All right, so it's
• 1:05:04
  1930. The IR Bowl. Yes, it is. Yeah. I think
• 1:05:12
  I saw the Niners have something like $300 million
• 1:05:17
  not playing. This is crazy. Because they're missing
• 1:05:25
  Purdy, Kittle, Bosa. Now they just lost Fred
• 1:05:34
  Warner. Yep. Ayuk. Yep. Juwan Jennings. Yep.
• 1:05:42
  Are they just sacrificing people so McCaffrey
• 1:05:47
  stays upright? I don't get it. How do you lose
• 1:05:52
  this many people? It's shocking. Some of them,
• 1:05:56
  like the Fred Warner one, that's a freak accident.
• 1:05:59
  He just got rolled up on and done for the season.
• 1:06:03
  Was it not last week when we were talking about
• 1:06:07
  him playing like... Defensive player of the year.
• 1:06:13
  Now he's gone. You're a visionary. You talk about
• 1:06:18
  someone, next week they get injured. They get
• 1:06:20
  catastrophic injuries. Mahomes, Mahomes, Mahomes.
• 1:06:23
  Sorry. Hey, Rob, if you didn't notice, at the
• 1:06:29
  beginning of this episode, we officially nicknamed
• 1:06:32
  this guy as the visionary. Because he... He predicted
• 1:06:38
  a few things that now analysts are saying. So
• 1:06:42
  he is now the visionary. So I got my own official
• 1:06:45
  WWE wrestler sitting next to me. Oh, boy. All
• 1:06:56
  right. So let's get to the next game. Bengals
• 1:07:01
  and Packers. Honestly, that game was. Better
• 1:07:07
  than I was expecting. I was expecting them to
• 1:07:11
  just get steamrolled. Obviously, there's still
• 1:07:16
  a ton of problems there. Crazy to think what
• 1:07:19
  happens when you have a quarterback. Yeah, well,
• 1:07:22
  I mean, when your team has three less interceptions,
• 1:07:25
  this kind of makes a big deal. How many tackles
• 1:07:31
  did Jamar Chase have this week? Zero. Yeah, like
• 1:07:34
  a receiver should. But I think bringing in Joe
• 1:07:39
  Flacco was the best decision. And he knows what
• 1:07:43
  he is. The best part is he is a starting quarterback,
• 1:07:48
  professional, picks things up quickly, can run
• 1:07:51
  an offense, knows what he is. Joe Burrow comes
• 1:07:54
  back. Joe Flacco's like, yep, cool, I'll grab
• 1:07:56
  a spot on the bench. It's all good. And he's
• 1:08:02
  got a strong arm. He can do it. Flacco understands
• 1:08:07
  his assignment. They did pretty good for him
• 1:08:11
  coming in on six days. Yeah. Like, now they just
• 1:08:14
  need to work on it. So, the defense was solid
• 1:08:17
  in the first half, which was also pretty shocking.
• 1:08:21
  Yep. But then the defense fizzled out in the
• 1:08:25
  second half, but the offense picked up because
• 1:08:27
  it's almost like they figured it out and got
• 1:08:29
  it together. Well, yeah, because the first few,
• 1:08:32
  he's still learning. Everyone's cadence, everyone's
• 1:08:35
  motions, and so forth. With your previous backup,
• 1:08:39
  Jake Browning, he can't pick up the blitz. Joe
• 1:08:44
  Burrows faced everybody. He knows when the blitz
• 1:08:47
  is. And teams are going to take it easy for the
• 1:08:49
  first bit to see what's going on. Then they're
• 1:08:52
  going to send their packages, and Joe Burrows
• 1:08:55
  is going to be able to, oh, you're going to blitz
• 1:08:56
  here, you're going to blitz here. Hot, boom.
• 1:08:59
  Hot, boom. Yeah. It brought life back in, like
• 1:09:03
  Jackson Dirt. But it's Joe Flacco. Yeah. And
• 1:09:11
  it's just like, yeah, I'm going to try to keep
• 1:09:14
  you guys alive so you guys can make the playoffs.
• 1:09:16
  Well, exactly. He had, I think they said 12 reps
• 1:09:22
  with Jamar Chase between him getting off the
• 1:09:26
  plane and playing in a game with him. Yep. Like,
• 1:09:31
  12? He almost had that many receptions in the
• 1:09:35
  game. Yes. Which is wild. It just shows you,
• 1:09:39
  like, the dynamic of having the right person
• 1:09:43
  in the room. It really did give me back some
• 1:09:45
  hope. They need to rattle off a few more, like,
• 1:09:50
  a bunch more wins in a row. But they got some...
• 1:09:53
  Now, I have a question for you, though. Was this
• 1:09:59
  good for Joe Flacco, or did this shine a light
• 1:10:03
  on the Packers? I think it also shone a light
• 1:10:08
  on the Packers. I don't think they're not as
• 1:10:12
  good as everyone thought they were going to be.
• 1:10:14
  No, Jordan Love is not. They're back to being
• 1:10:17
  as mediocre as they were last year, just with
• 1:10:19
  a different pass rusher. Yeah. They don't seem,
• 1:10:24
  there's nothing crazy going on there. I don't.
• 1:10:27
  I'm not going to write home about them. Micah
• 1:10:29
  Parsons? Okay. No one's even talked about him.
• 1:10:32
  Jerry won. Jerry was right. Yeah. Why am I paying
• 1:10:34
  you? You're adequate. You're a grit on Dallas
• 1:10:36
  because you're probably the best player on Dallas.
• 1:10:39
  Yeah. But I'm not getting better by paying you.
• 1:10:42
  It's true. I'll ship you to the Green Bay Packers.
• 1:10:47
  They're a great defense. Now, give Micah some
• 1:10:51
  time. He's still getting acclimated to the team.
• 1:10:57
  Plus, he also gets double -teamed a lot. Yes,
• 1:10:59
  yeah, he's a clear. But you'd think him being
• 1:11:03
  double -teamed is going to open up things for
• 1:11:05
  everyone else, but I think everyone else just
• 1:11:07
  needs to get used to it. Yep. Because it was
• 1:11:09
  just before the new season. But still, you'd
• 1:11:12
  think they'd have it figured out by now. Like,
• 1:11:14
  we're already at firing coach season. Yep. So,
• 1:11:17
  like, if they can't figure it out, like, yes,
• 1:11:21
  they won, but, like... The Bengals were in an
• 1:11:24
  absolute tailspin. Like, they were dead in the
• 1:11:28
  water. And Joe Flacco, like, this is what I was
• 1:11:36
  talking about. Like, I don't even, I don't need
• 1:11:39
  them to win immediately, but I need them to have,
• 1:11:42
  like, signs of life. They did. Exactly. There's
• 1:11:47
  a heartbeat. Yeah. Boom, boom. Boom, boom. It's
• 1:11:50
  not. Oh, my God. I have to watch my team get
• 1:11:54
  absolutely destroyed again this week. No, no,
• 1:11:56
  no. Those days are over. It gives you a little
• 1:11:58
  bit of hope. Yeah. We'll see. Sunday night game.
• 1:12:04
  Lions and Chiefs. See, I feel like the problem
• 1:12:11
  is the Chiefs, when they win, it's annoying.
• 1:12:18
  And, like, I just... I just can't with them.
• 1:12:23
  It was like, I think it was the 12th game since
• 1:12:29
  2019 with zero penalties. Somehow. Magic. Since
• 1:12:39
  2019. And the Chiefs have had three of them.
• 1:12:44
  That's like 1 ,600 games. That was a horrible
• 1:12:49
  game to watch. Yeah. And, like, you see all these
• 1:12:52
  replays, and you're like, that's Fleck, that's
• 1:12:54
  Fleck, but it is what it is. I was a little disappointed
• 1:12:58
  with Jared Goff's touchdown being called back.
• 1:13:02
  Yep. Because they're saying, oh, he didn't set.
• 1:13:07
  Which he didn't, but I see on other games where
• 1:13:11
  Waterseer was still cutting. Exactly. Crazy that
• 1:13:19
  that happens in Arrowhead. It should have been
• 1:13:21
  picked. Yeah. Oh, yeah. No, he barely caught
• 1:13:24
  that. He was, like, bobbling it around. But,
• 1:13:26
  yeah. The annoying thing is this is just going
• 1:13:32
  to give more fuel in the fire for the Chiefs.
• 1:13:36
  Sheed Rice is coming back. And now their offense
• 1:13:40
  is kind of clicking. They're almost back. Yeah.
• 1:13:48
  But, you know... At least someone punched Juju
• 1:13:50
  in the face. You know what? You know you have
• 1:13:53
  Detroit grit when there's a fight after. Yeah.
• 1:13:57
  But did you see why he... Patrick Mahomes. No.
• 1:14:01
  What? No. Juju walked up to... During the game,
• 1:14:06
  there was like three minutes left in the game.
• 1:14:08
  The Chiefs were winning. Yep. And... Branch is
• 1:14:13
  coming around and Juju hits him with a blindside
• 1:14:16
  block. And then does the step over on him. No
• 1:14:20
  flag? No flag. Obviously. There was zero flags.
• 1:14:23
  Because the Chiefs are perfect. And then he's
• 1:14:27
  like immediately chirping him about that. And
• 1:14:30
  then so he's walking up to him after the game.
• 1:14:32
  And then he's like, oh, good game, man. He's
• 1:14:35
  like, no. But then he gets suspended. Yeah. But
• 1:14:41
  did you see? So he does that. He gets juju, then
• 1:14:47
  he gets held back. He retaliated 100%. And what
• 1:14:58
  did he get? Thrown on the ground in a bloody
• 1:15:00
  nose. Yeah. So he can go dance on TikTok some
• 1:15:04
  more. Almost forgot about that. Yeah. It came
• 1:15:10
  from that Steeler Nation. Yeah. But yeah, anytime,
• 1:15:15
  like, It still drives me nuts when you hear Chris
• 1:15:20
  Collinsworth go in. If I'm listening to a Tuesday
• 1:15:24
  game and Chris Collinsworth is on, no quarterback
• 1:15:27
  in the NFL can do that. It's like Mahomes scrambling
• 1:15:30
  for almost a first down. Meanwhile, you're like,
• 1:15:32
  Baker Mayfield does that literally every single
• 1:15:35
  week. Favoritism. And then he's diving for the
• 1:15:39
  first round and then getting up and in people's
• 1:15:42
  faces. Favoritism. Yeah. That's all I'm saying,
• 1:15:44
  favoritism. I like the... when Mahomes ran into
• 1:15:49
  the end zone and he's doing the, oh, too strong,
• 1:15:54
  starts taunting, like, no one touched you. Like,
• 1:15:58
  yes, I get it. People should have touched him.
• 1:16:00
  But, like, you can't be like, oh, yeah, too strong
• 1:16:04
  for you and no one touches you. It is what it
• 1:16:07
  is. Just makes me annoyed. I'd rather, I want
• 1:16:12
  Detroit to be good. We all do, though. Yeah.
• 1:16:17
  I mean, they're right there. They deserve it.
• 1:16:19
  They play that nice style of football, too. So.
• 1:16:27
  So, I hope they don't take it too hard. I hope
• 1:16:33
  they take the loss in the right way. They will.
• 1:16:36
  They will. But I guess we'll find out next week.
• 1:16:43
  Sure. Okay. So. It's Monday night. We got two
• 1:16:48
  games going on right now. Yeah, we got a little
• 1:16:50
  bit of a later start than usual. Yeah. Thanksgiving.
• 1:16:54
  Thanksgiving. So it changed a lot of things.
• 1:16:56
  So we'll be giving away jerseys soon. But as
• 1:17:01
  of the games going on right now, we got the Bills
• 1:17:03
  and the Falcons. Bills and the Falcons. And the
• 1:17:05
  Bears and the Commanders. Bears and Commanders.
• 1:17:07
  Bills and Falcons started first. And, well, I
• 1:17:11
  don't think the Bills started first. That's for
• 1:17:13
  sure. No, but they're trying to play a comeback
• 1:17:15
  right now. Yeah. Which is what they're good at.
• 1:17:18
  I'm okay with that. Yeah, I mean, they got down
• 1:17:21
  21 -7. Yeah, and that was 21 -14. Yeah, so they're
• 1:17:25
  making a comeback. I haven't seen much to know
• 1:17:29
  any of the stats or what's actually going on,
• 1:17:31
  but I've just seen a few touchdowns out of the
• 1:17:34
  corner of my eye. True, true, true. And then...
• 1:17:38
  It's kind of what we got on the... Nice big screen
• 1:17:42
  behind us. Yeah, we cut enough so we don't get
• 1:17:45
  sued. Yeah, the No Fun League struck us after
• 1:17:49
  the first episode and said, you can't have that
• 1:17:52
  on YouTube because we don't like enjoyment. Yes,
• 1:17:57
  so we cut enough. We make sure there's enough
• 1:18:00
  in the picture so we don't get sued. Yeah, we're
• 1:18:03
  here so we don't get fined. Yeah. But we're here
• 1:18:06
  and hopefully don't get fined. Yeah. But like
• 1:18:12
  I said, if you're going to, like, honestly, it's
• 1:18:14
  Thanksgiving, so there's a little bit less because
• 1:18:16
  people are still doing Thanksgiving with their
• 1:18:17
  families. There's still time. But there's still
• 1:18:20
  people coming through and people are enjoying
• 1:18:22
  it. So we'll be giving away a jersey. Either
• 1:18:23
  way, some lucky person here is walking home or
• 1:18:26
  driving or however they feel like getting on
• 1:18:29
  biking. You do you. They're going to be in a
• 1:18:33
  nice, authentic Josh Allen jersey. It can be
• 1:18:39
  even worth more if you want to sell it later
• 1:18:41
  on. I don't condone that. I say you should wear
• 1:18:43
  it and rock it. Hey, I won a Josh Allen jersey
• 1:18:47
  years ago, and I'm not a Bills fan, so I was
• 1:18:52
  probably never going to wear it. And then they
• 1:18:55
  had that Blizzard game, and I ended up selling
• 1:19:00
  it to somebody that was on their way. They picked
• 1:19:02
  it up and headed to the Blizzard game. That is
• 1:19:04
  wicked. That's cool. So that's kind of sweet.
• 1:19:07
  Damn. So, like, being able to give that experience
• 1:19:10
  to someone, it's kind of like when we give away
• 1:19:11
  jerseys here. Yeah. Except I charge them. No,
• 1:19:15
  we don't charge them. All you have to do is get
• 1:19:16
  a drink. No, I mean I did when I sold them. Oh,
• 1:19:19
  yeah, yeah, yeah. But, no, you just got to come
• 1:19:22
  in, get some beer, get a drink, get some food.
• 1:19:26
  You do you. Hang out with us. Like we said, we're
• 1:19:30
  shooting this episode on Thanksgiving, and we
• 1:19:32
  greatly appreciate Pest Case Scenario being here
• 1:19:36
  live. joining us for this episode. We know we
• 1:19:39
  got one viewer. 100%. We know we got a guaranteed
• 1:19:45
  viewer right now because we're looking at them.
• 1:19:47
  We've got three viewers. Yes. My mom, your mom,
• 1:19:51
  and Rob. Yeah. The more the merrier. Come on
• 1:19:57
  down. We're doing it every week. Yeah. You know
• 1:20:02
  what? Next week, if we can schedule it properly
• 1:20:05
  and make sure we have the right tools, let's
• 1:20:07
  get Pest Case Scenario on here. Let's do it.
• 1:20:10
  You know what? See if we can make that a reality.
• 1:20:15
  We'll see. Maybe get your mom on here. We'll
• 1:20:17
  ask what the people want. No, my mom would just
• 1:20:21
  go beet red and not have anything to say. Mom,
• 1:20:27
  I love you. I don't know if you could be a podcaster.
• 1:20:32
  I really hope she sees that. She will. Who do
• 1:20:38
  you have tonight, though? Do you think the Bulls
• 1:20:40
  are going to win? And do they come back? I hope
• 1:20:43
  they do. I feel like it's entirely viable for
• 1:20:49
  them to. They have the team for it. They have
• 1:20:52
  the skill set, the mindset. They've done it in
• 1:20:54
  the past. They've got a history. So I think they
• 1:20:57
  can do it. Perfect. And then the... Bears versus
• 1:21:02
  Falcons. Bears and Commanders. I feel like that
• 1:21:06
  game's just kind of kicking off. I'm really hoping
• 1:21:10
  the Commanders win tonight because I would love
• 1:21:14
  to see people knock the Bears. Yeah. It's just
• 1:21:18
  Caleb Williams' attitude. Thank you for tuning
• 1:21:22
  in. That really rubbed me the wrong way, and
• 1:21:27
  I really don't want him to rub me anyway. You
• 1:21:33
  heard it here first. He does not want to be rubbed
• 1:21:36
  by Kayla Williams. Like a back rub? Nah, I'm
• 1:21:40
