- 0:05Speaker 1: And when I woke up this morning, I was feeling
- 0:06Speaker 1: pretty dangerous for as tonight. It's mc cock. They are
- 0:11Speaker 1: what we thought they were. Are we not about? Hello?
- 0:15Speaker 1: You plenty to win the gate. They want you to
- 0:17Speaker 1: cook the dinner. At least they ought to let your
- 0:19Speaker 1: shop for some of the groceries. And on the way up,
- 0:21Speaker 1: we're gonna buy a kneecap off playoffs. You're kidding me.
- 0:25Speaker 1: I'm just here so I won't get fine? How could
- 0:27Speaker 1: he not be romantic about football? Welcome to the bench
- 0:34Speaker 1: with the Neeta Podcast. Um, guys, my brain is at
- 0:40Speaker 1: I would say about two percent today too. We've got
- 0:43Speaker 1: a two percent function rate because your girl is somehow
- 0:48Speaker 1: still jet flagged. I think it might be worse coming back,
- 0:52Speaker 1: By the way, I just obviously got back from Munich. Um,
- 0:55Speaker 1: me and Tom Brady hung out of time. We basically
- 0:58Speaker 1: hung out the entire time I was there. Were best
- 1:00Speaker 1: on um but I'm messed up. My brain ain't working.
- 1:05Speaker 1: I the first day that I got back, I woke
- 1:08Speaker 1: up at three am. Do you guys agree that the
- 1:09Speaker 1: way coming home is worse? Because I feel like when
- 1:11Speaker 1: you're where you're excited about now you're excited about, like
- 1:15Speaker 1: where you're going. Oh my god, I get to go
- 1:17Speaker 1: hang out Tom Brady. Oh my gotta get to go
- 1:18Speaker 1: to this international game. I have a I have a schedule,
- 1:22Speaker 1: I have people to hang out with. But when I'm home,
- 1:25Speaker 1: what do I gotta do? Laundry expenses? Come on, I'd
- 1:28Speaker 1: rather be in bed. That is a fair point. But
- 1:31Speaker 1: I just know my experience coming back from London, Like
- 1:34Speaker 1: the entire week in London, I was trying to adjust
- 1:37Speaker 1: and I never really adjusted, and maybe that's why the
- 1:40Speaker 1: transition back home was so much easier. But when I
- 1:42Speaker 1: got back home, I felt like I was right back
- 1:45Speaker 1: to life and I didn't need any time. That's wild.
- 1:47Speaker 1: You don't think you changed to London towntown, to London
- 1:52Speaker 1: time when come to London Town. You don't think you
- 1:55Speaker 1: changed to London time at all while you were there.
- 1:57Speaker 1: That's wild. Yeah, I think you tried to do that,
- 1:59Speaker 1: and I think that's crazy. It was crazy, though, because
- 2:01Speaker 1: there were days that I was away till four in
- 2:03Speaker 1: the morning in my hotel room and like it was
- 2:06Speaker 1: c Yeah, but that was probably my choice. I mean
- 2:08Speaker 1: there were some nights that I was up until like
- 2:09Speaker 1: two am. In Germany, but it's because I was having
- 2:11Speaker 1: a lack Okay, guys, speaking of travel, by the way,
- 2:16Speaker 1: I got to give it up to my guy mohan
- 2:18Speaker 1: um mo. I feel like every single time I talked
- 2:22Speaker 1: to you, you're not only on the way to a wedding,
- 2:25Speaker 1: which is like a brag. Okay, we get it, you
- 2:27Speaker 1: have friends, but you are in the wedding party. Nay,
- 2:32Speaker 1: you're the best man. Often often that's a testimony to
- 2:36Speaker 1: to to who you are as a person. Can you
- 2:39Speaker 1: just speak to that? What? What? What's what's the key? Like?
- 2:43Speaker 1: Why are you just like infiltrating all these friend groups
- 2:45Speaker 1: and becoming their best friend and best man? I think
- 2:47Speaker 1: I've been a groomsman six times, the best man three times.
- 2:52Speaker 1: That's gonna be my third. So but you know what's
- 2:56Speaker 1: going to be tricky is you've been so many people's
- 2:59Speaker 1: best man. End Um, you're gonna get married and how
- 3:03Speaker 1: do you how do you figure that out? Because usually
- 3:07Speaker 1: a normal person I think is probably a best man
- 3:12Speaker 1: or a maid of honor once in their life, maybe
- 3:16Speaker 1: twice if you have siblings or like a really close cousin. Okay,
- 3:20Speaker 1: so what's gonna happen when you get married and you
- 3:22Speaker 1: have all of these people, be like, bro, I had
- 3:25Speaker 1: you be best man at my Wedding's the DeLeo, How
- 3:28Speaker 1: are you going to do that? I don't know. I
- 3:29Speaker 1: think about that a line. It gives me a late
- 3:31Speaker 1: anxiety and maybe that's the barrier that's with me finding
- 3:35Speaker 1: a girl here. So because you can't you don't want
- 3:40Speaker 1: to pick up? Yeah, I have to be like, I'm sorry,
- 3:42Speaker 1: I'm interested, but I have some Listen, girly, we could
- 3:48Speaker 1: take this thing all the way, but I can't because
- 3:50Speaker 1: I actually am just not able to make a decision.
- 3:53Speaker 1: Do you have your best man speech already written and
- 3:56Speaker 1: good to go? And like Graver who just likes to
- 3:58Speaker 1: roll the dice and do it on the plane. Yeah,
- 4:01Speaker 1: that's wild. No, It's been circulating my head for weeks
- 4:05Speaker 1: and then I just finally tape it out. Did you
- 4:08Speaker 1: did you do you go for comedy? Mo? Or do
- 4:09Speaker 1: you go? Do you go for the hart? I got
- 4:11Speaker 1: a formula. I gotta go comedy to open then you know,
- 4:15Speaker 1: first time we met friendship, then uh you know, you know,
- 4:20Speaker 1: give him a little crap, then tie in the fiancee,
- 4:24Speaker 1: and then ended very sentimental on what he means to
- 4:28Speaker 1: me and what she means to him, and everyone's happy.
- 4:31Speaker 1: Then the toast. It's easy for me. You just out.
- 4:35Speaker 1: You've done so many of these, do you. What do
- 4:37Speaker 1: you guys think about reading off a phone versus memorizing
- 4:40Speaker 1: versus reading off a piece of paper. I wouldn't bring
- 4:43Speaker 1: the phone, don't bring the write it down. Bad feedback
- 4:51Speaker 1: from from my perspective, because I did two best Man
- 4:54Speaker 1: speeches in the last six weeks, and I read them
- 4:56Speaker 1: both off my phone. But I also made a joke
- 4:59Speaker 1: out of it, like went up there. I was like,
- 5:00Speaker 1: I'm not texting, I have my speech here. Sorry. Did
- 5:03Speaker 1: that get laughs? The first wedding it did? The second wedding, Well,
- 5:08Speaker 1: I'm nervous that I'm gonna lose my place in the
- 5:10Speaker 1: on my phone or my phone's going to shut off,
- 5:13Speaker 1: and like what happens? What if you got a tax?
- 5:15Speaker 1: What if somebody calls you? I think you just write
- 5:18Speaker 1: it down. I think there's something nice about a nice
- 5:20Speaker 1: little card. Yeah. People back here are saying it doesn't
- 5:23Speaker 1: look good in pictures to be holding your phone up there,
- 5:25Speaker 1: which I had never thought about. Yeah, okay, all right,
- 5:28Speaker 1: this is get you back. I will say, like if
- 5:30Speaker 1: anybody ever, If anybody ever asked me to be a
- 5:33Speaker 1: maid of honor, I'm gonna be like, guys, that's um.
- 5:35Speaker 1: I didn't even like prepare anything. I didn't I didn't
- 5:38Speaker 1: write anything, and just like just like pick up a
- 5:41Speaker 1: stack of papers and throw it on the table. That's
- 5:44Speaker 1: going to be my first gag. How How long was
- 5:46Speaker 1: your speech? My first speech was came in at seven minutes.
- 5:51Speaker 1: I rehearsed it and it was four, and then I
- 5:53Speaker 1: performed it and it was seven. My second speech, I
- 5:57Speaker 1: rehearsed it, it was two and a half and I
- 5:58Speaker 1: performed and it was five. And I was a good
- 6:00Speaker 1: I'm going for like a minute and a half here,
- 6:03Speaker 1: because that's impossible. The last thing I'm after dinner, I'm
- 6:06Speaker 1: the last thing before the dance floor opens. Everyone's going
- 6:09Speaker 1: to be like, there's no way you can go through
- 6:10Speaker 1: that whole formula in a minute and a half. I
- 6:12Speaker 1: can do it. I think you're underestimating and if you're,
- 6:16Speaker 1: if I'm nervous, I'll talk faster or read faster. Okay,
- 6:20Speaker 1: my other question real quick, justin did your your tux fit?
- 6:23Speaker 1: Because I don't know if you guys remember out there,
- 6:25Speaker 1: but he had his TuS rental. Who could forget he
- 6:29Speaker 1: was picking it up in Kansas City instead of having
- 6:31Speaker 1: it sent to l A to try on. Yes, it
- 6:35Speaker 1: fit because I went and got measured and then placed
- 6:37Speaker 1: the order and had it continually. Where do you think
- 6:42Speaker 1: this is way more chaotic than I think that it
- 6:44Speaker 1: actually was. I think that there were measurements, there was
- 6:47Speaker 1: a plan in place, but just the idea of him
- 6:49Speaker 1: going and picking We are like disaster minded mos So
- 6:54Speaker 1: we're like everything is gonna go wrong and justin just
- 6:56Speaker 1: trusted the process. And maybe we should take a page
- 6:58Speaker 1: out of his book. Yes, sometimes everything just works out
- 7:03Speaker 1: and if it doesn't, then you make a joke out
- 7:05Speaker 1: of it and it's fine, great story, unless you are
- 7:08Speaker 1: the Seahawks and you are in Germany playing Tom Brady.
- 7:12Speaker 1: That was crazy? What what a segway? Huh? Um? Munich
- 7:18Speaker 1: was so much fun. Nobody knows this. I don't think
- 7:22Speaker 1: I've talked about this on the podcast, but um, my
- 7:25Speaker 1: entire family was in Munich when I was there for
- 7:28Speaker 1: the game. My brother just had a baby and he
- 7:33Speaker 1: lives in Munich, like literally just moved there. Okay, so
- 7:36Speaker 1: they're there. I get to meet my niece for the
- 7:37Speaker 1: first time, which I didn't think I was going to
- 7:38Speaker 1: do until next year. Then my mom decided to go
- 7:42Speaker 1: because she's like the nanny now. And then my other
- 7:45Speaker 1: brother decided to show up because he was tour. He
- 7:48Speaker 1: was on a like a tour in Spain playing music,
- 7:52Speaker 1: so all the stars aligned, and then all of a sudden,
- 7:54Speaker 1: I called him up and I was just like, hey,
- 7:56Speaker 1: I'm going to be in Germany, and everyone's just like,
- 7:59Speaker 1: so are we. And it was crazy, not just in
- 8:02Speaker 1: Germany of all places, but in Munich, so I got
- 8:06Speaker 1: to spend time with my family the entire every night.
- 8:10Speaker 1: My mom was hanging out with herv drinking beers at
- 8:14Speaker 1: Offera house. It was insane mood. She was in Leader
- 8:19Speaker 1: Rich Eyes and Colleen Wolf. Rita Banetta is a big
- 8:23Speaker 1: NFL network, She's a champion, she's a star among amongst
- 8:27Speaker 1: the people's now. But it was so much fun. That
- 8:30Speaker 1: was crazy. And then the game was incredible seeing Tom
- 8:32Speaker 1: Brady in person play. I was at the Super Bowl
- 8:36Speaker 1: that was in Houston, that was Patriots Falcons, and I
- 8:41Speaker 1: wasn't able. I was like inside for the pregame. I
- 8:44Speaker 1: was allowed to be in there. And then as soon
- 8:45Speaker 1: as the game started, I got kicked out. I got
- 8:47Speaker 1: booted in that game of all games, like the craziest
- 8:51Speaker 1: super Bowl that's happened in the past, whatever, one of
- 8:53Speaker 1: the craziest ones in the day in the last decade.
- 8:55Speaker 1: I got kicked out. I didn't see Tom Brady, and
- 8:58Speaker 1: this time I was down on the field. I got
- 9:02Speaker 1: to watch him walk in. The man glows. The man
- 9:07Speaker 1: just like oozes stardom, and it is very cool to actually, like,
- 9:14Speaker 1: I didn't mean to geek out, because like whatever, you're
- 9:16Speaker 1: supposed to be professional in that setting, but seeing his
- 9:18Speaker 1: actual like name on the back of his jersey, you guys,
- 9:22Speaker 1: was like wild. Have y' all seen Tom Brady play
- 9:25Speaker 1: in person? Like to that that distance, that close distance, No, no,
- 9:30Speaker 1: I haven't seen Tom How how was watching him um
- 9:33Speaker 1: play a wide receiver. I was on the wrong side
- 9:37Speaker 1: of the field of that, But what a moment that
- 9:40Speaker 1: would have been. The entire The thing about that is
- 9:44Speaker 1: like everyone's kind of like in on the jol Like
- 9:47Speaker 1: everyone loves to make fun of Tom Brady. So even
- 9:49Speaker 1: in Germany, the entire stadium erupted in laughter when that happened,
- 9:53Speaker 1: Like it was just such a perfect moment um and
- 9:58Speaker 1: paper fun. I really wanted this. Sorry, I was just
- 10:00Speaker 1: gonna say. When he started to slip, I hearad he screamed, Lenny, know,
- 10:04Speaker 1: don't like because for net through it, and like if
- 10:07Speaker 1: you were there and you heard it, like that would
- 10:09Speaker 1: have been that would have been amazing. Now I was
- 10:12Speaker 1: on the wrong side of the field, but I did
- 10:13Speaker 1: get to see what happened, and what a what a
- 10:15Speaker 1: what a special little like fun thing that he tried
- 10:19Speaker 1: to do for Germany like the police would have. He's
- 10:22Speaker 1: a showman, like he knows what's going to make the
- 10:25Speaker 1: crowd go wild. That last shot of him like walking
- 10:28Speaker 1: out of the stadium and he takes off his hat
- 10:30Speaker 1: and does one of these and the entire place like
- 10:33Speaker 1: just goes off. He knows what he's doing. He knows, uh.
- 10:39Speaker 1: And then guys, I gotta say, we're going to be
- 10:42Speaker 1: going to Germany every year because that place is filled
- 10:47Speaker 1: to the brim with football fans. Somebody said something really
- 10:50Speaker 1: interesting to me when I was over there. They said,
- 10:53Speaker 1: the London Games are a lot of people from London,
- 10:56Speaker 1: but they're actually just a lot of people from Europe,
- 10:58Speaker 1: like traveling in to see these games. The Germany game
- 11:03Speaker 1: is just people from Germany. Like, that's just how many
- 11:07Speaker 1: football fans are there. There's that three million number that
- 11:10Speaker 1: keeps on getting tossed around. There were so many people
- 11:13Speaker 1: waiting in the queue on Ticketmaster for these games. Um
- 11:19Speaker 1: and uh. They estimate that if there were just like
- 11:23Speaker 1: unlimited tickets in the world, that three million people would
- 11:27Speaker 1: have gotten tickets to this game, which is just bonkers insane.
- 11:32Speaker 1: So we're gonna be going back to Germany. I hope
- 11:35Speaker 1: that Tom Brady is still playing next year and he
- 11:37Speaker 1: can go back because the people clearly love him. And
- 11:39Speaker 1: I'm sure you guys saw the Country Roads. I still
- 11:43Speaker 1: don't know why a John Denver song just because he's
- 11:45Speaker 1: like super like Americana, Like, do you guys know why
- 11:48Speaker 1: they chose to sing Country Roads. No, it's I think
- 11:51Speaker 1: it's like just some fan tradition in Europe or something,
- 11:55Speaker 1: because apparently, like Sweet Caroline is also something that they've
- 11:58Speaker 1: sang overseas at sporting events for years and years and
- 12:01Speaker 1: years and years. I don't really understand why. I guess
- 12:04Speaker 1: I guess Sweet Caroline I'm used to because I feel
- 12:08Speaker 1: like that is the song to sing at any sporting event,
- 12:11Speaker 1: no matter it's football or basketball or baseball or anything.
- 12:16Speaker 1: I probably heard it a hockey game. Um, but Country Roads,
- 12:20Speaker 1: I was like Country Roads. Everyone knew every single word
- 12:26Speaker 1: to the song. So yeah, you're right. They must just
- 12:27Speaker 1: like they must be like a Byron Mutic thing or
- 12:29Speaker 1: maybe just like a thing. Anyways, Munich was Tom, I
- 12:33Speaker 1: ain't way too many pretzels, And I, yes, I know
- 12:36Speaker 1: what you're wondering. Did I have a hot dog at
- 12:38Speaker 1: the stadium? Have I learned my lesson? The answer is yes,
- 12:43Speaker 1: and there's no. Yes, I didn't eat a hot dog. No,
- 12:45Speaker 1: I have not learned my lesson. It was pretty gnarly though.
- 12:49Speaker 1: It didn't make me feel good, so maybe I should
- 12:53Speaker 1: maybe I should take it. Did you have more problems?
- 12:56Speaker 1: Did I eat more pretzels or more hot dogs? Honestly,
- 12:59Speaker 1: probably a little bit of like even and the pretzels
- 13:03Speaker 1: that I will say, every pretzel that I had kind
- 13:06Speaker 1: of hard, kind of kind of a bit like that.
- 13:08Speaker 1: It's been just like hanging out on the wind, like
- 13:11Speaker 1: the soft pretzels that we have in uh, the United States.
- 13:14Speaker 1: I will say, like the bread, like everything is just
- 13:16Speaker 1: like kind of better over there. Pretzels didn't hit his hard,
- 13:22Speaker 1: Please don't come after me from um so as being
- 13:26Speaker 1: a Tom Brady. There was a trailer for the movie
- 13:28Speaker 1: that came out eighty what's it called eighty to Brady
- 13:31Speaker 1: on the Way to Brady eight for Brady. A bunch
- 13:34Speaker 1: of ladies who are hot for Tom Brady go to
- 13:38Speaker 1: a Patriots game. It looks insane, It looks widelled. I
- 13:43Speaker 1: did laugh out loud at the gronk part. There's a
- 13:45Speaker 1: part of the end where one of the ladies clearly
- 13:47Speaker 1: like has some drugs and all she said sees is
- 13:49Speaker 1: like Guy Fietti. If you haven't seen the trailer, go
- 13:51Speaker 1: and see it. Tom's in it. It looks very fun.
- 13:55Speaker 1: It looks like one gigantic ad for the Patriots, just
- 13:58Speaker 1: like Patriots here everywhere. Um And I must say, it's
- 14:02Speaker 1: it's hard to like make scripted stuff about the NFL,
- 14:07Speaker 1: and so to have like Tom Brady attached to this
- 14:10Speaker 1: project and then actually get it made and apparently it's
- 14:14Speaker 1: a true story. Oh, I'm very excited for this movie
- 14:17Speaker 1: to come out. Based on based on it was weird
- 14:20Speaker 1: seeing I know, I know, and you can see that
- 14:25Speaker 1: he's like like his age now, Like you could see
- 14:29Speaker 1: the grad. The movie is coming out before the Super Bowl.
- 14:33Speaker 1: What would they have done if the Bucks made the
- 14:35Speaker 1: Super Bowl? Well, I mean they still might, But how
- 14:37Speaker 1: awkward did that be? Of like, this movie's out with
- 14:40Speaker 1: him in the Patriots and then he's on the Bucks
- 14:42Speaker 1: in the super Bowl. I don't think it's awkward. I
- 14:44Speaker 1: think he's like one of the executive producers of it.
- 14:46Speaker 1: He's going to be like promoting the movie all the
- 14:48Speaker 1: way to the Super Bowl. So we're we gonna take
- 14:50Speaker 1: like a benched field trip to go see it together
- 14:52Speaker 1: when it comes out. Yes, I love this. I love
- 14:56Speaker 1: this the movie. It looks choogy, but I'm in on
- 14:59Speaker 1: the shoot lately, so sign me up. Um Okay, before
- 15:03Speaker 1: we get to game PTIs, before we go to the break,
- 15:05Speaker 1: I just have a quick question. This has kind of
- 15:07Speaker 1: been on my mind all week. And I know this
- 15:10Speaker 1: is coming on on a Friday, we're about like a
- 15:12Speaker 1: week removed. But guess what I was in Munich and
- 15:14Speaker 1: I still have things to say, Jeff Saturday, everyone was
- 15:18Speaker 1: all up in arms. Oh my god, how could they
- 15:20Speaker 1: hire a coach that's never coached before? And and he's
- 15:24Speaker 1: the next player and that's all he does and he's
- 15:25Speaker 1: tweeting about the Raiders madness. Okay, uh, he goes and
- 15:29Speaker 1: he wins. But here's the thing. Then everyone's just like, oh,
- 15:34Speaker 1: how do you guys feel him? Now? Jeff Saturday got
- 15:36Speaker 1: a win. Guys, he's been he's been with the team
- 15:41Speaker 1: for five minutes. You can't credit him on this win.
- 15:45Speaker 1: You have to credit the team for this win. And
- 15:48Speaker 1: I think it actually maybe like nothing to do with
- 15:51Speaker 1: Jeff Saturday unless he decided to, like put Matt Ryan
- 15:55Speaker 1: back in the game, Matt Ryan, and then please, but
- 16:00Speaker 1: I think it's also the team surrounding Matt Ryan. I
- 16:02Speaker 1: literally think that this woman has nothing to do with
- 16:05Speaker 1: Jeff Saturday and he is going to be put to
- 16:07Speaker 1: the ultimate test against Like what, thank you Universe for
- 16:12Speaker 1: getting the Colts to play the Eagles the following game,
- 16:15Speaker 1: because the Eagles are fresh off of their first loss,
- 16:18Speaker 1: they are first, and now they're going to play Jeff
- 16:23Speaker 1: Saturday with a little bit more time under his belt
- 16:25Speaker 1: having actually coached the Colts for like the last week
- 16:28Speaker 1: and a half. Whoa, but that's my take. I don't
- 16:33Speaker 1: think that this win had anything to do with Jeff
- 16:35Speaker 1: Saturday and all these people being like, wait, think no,
- 16:38Speaker 1: Jefturday is no experiently just want to give me him. No,
- 16:42Speaker 1: the team did not. Jeff Saturday's motivating. He's a leader
- 16:49Speaker 1: of men. Do I not think he's motivating? Yeah? I
- 16:51Speaker 1: feel like that that was his whole bit right like
- 16:55Speaker 1: after yet his whole stay on. I think he had
- 17:02Speaker 1: his press conference and he said I could be terrible
- 17:05Speaker 1: at this and I might be fired in like a
- 17:07Speaker 1: couple of months. For now, it was not motivating. If
- 17:10Speaker 1: I if I heard that and I was in the
- 17:12Speaker 1: locker room, might be like, what guys, what are we going? Yeah?
- 17:15Speaker 1: But then he said he's going to try hard. I'm
- 17:19Speaker 1: just playing Devil's advocate. The team. You're always playing Devil's advocate.
- 17:27Speaker 1: A conversation unfold everyone. This is we are the laughing
- 17:32Speaker 1: stock of the NFL. We need to win this game.
- 17:35Speaker 1: I think it's more so on the team and on
- 17:37Speaker 1: Jeff Saturday. What do you think? Amen? Good job Colts,
- 17:41Speaker 1: you got your last win of the season. Oh got
- 17:44Speaker 1: him you He is a personal thing with them, So
- 17:49Speaker 1: now I do think that that was like, you know,
- 17:51Speaker 1: every team that fires their head coach gets a little
- 17:54Speaker 1: bump and they don't always win. But there's always like
- 17:56Speaker 1: an energy bump that comes with that because they like,
- 18:00Speaker 1: oh no, this coach won't be here next year. We
- 18:03Speaker 1: have to go put good tape out so that the
- 18:05Speaker 1: next everyone else around the league wants us to play
- 18:07Speaker 1: for them again, Like there's motivational factors besides, just like
- 18:11Speaker 1: Jeff Saturday's presence, I think, well, if Saturday loses out
- 18:14Speaker 1: and he doesn't get the job, he goes back to
- 18:16Speaker 1: being and ESPN analysts exactly, Like it's not like he's
- 18:20Speaker 1: never he tried it whatever. No, I'm not saying it's
- 18:24Speaker 1: bad on him. I'm just saying, like all of these
- 18:26Speaker 1: people were, like I saw Twitter explode, being like, oh,
- 18:30Speaker 1: what do you guys have to say now? And it's like,
- 18:33Speaker 1: still what I was saying, that maybe somebody with the
- 18:36Speaker 1: actual credentials should have been hired. There's a bevy of
- 18:41Speaker 1: people more deserving for this job. That's what we were saying,
- 18:44Speaker 1: and I stick by that. Okay, we're going to break
- 18:46Speaker 1: coming up, We've got game picks, and yes, the Eagles
- 18:48Speaker 1: and Cults are included in that. I think I actually
- 18:50Speaker 1: might change my score. My score is generous right now
- 18:52Speaker 1: for the quotes I'm lowering it. I am lowering that
- 18:56Speaker 1: sucker dunk anywhere. Look at tonight. We're safe, secure the bad.
- 19:14Speaker 1: All right. We're picking a couple of games here, starting
- 19:17Speaker 1: with the Eagles, who are favored by seven at the Colts. Uh.
- 19:21Speaker 1: The Eagles are, Yes, they lost their first game. What
- 19:27Speaker 1: a bumber to the Commanders. What a bomber they play
- 19:32Speaker 1: the Colts. They played Jeff Saturday's Colts. You know where
- 19:35Speaker 1: we stand on Jeff Saturday on this show, unless you're Mohan,
- 19:39Speaker 1: was just presenting another side of the arument. I had
- 19:43Speaker 1: Eagles um, which would just be a push. No, not anymore.
- 19:49Speaker 1: I'm going Eagle um. I still think that that's kind
- 19:55Speaker 1: of generous for the Colts to put up that much.
- 19:57Speaker 1: But I think I think Matt Ryan also had a
- 19:58Speaker 1: little bit of a chip on his shoulder at like
- 20:00Speaker 1: he was benched. Umah. Now he's coming back. He's coming
- 20:03Speaker 1: back for revenge. But I think the Eagles, this is
- 20:06Speaker 1: this is a big game for them. They gotta they
- 20:09Speaker 1: gotta prove that they shouldn't have lost to the Commanders.
- 20:13Speaker 1: What do you guys like? They just signed in Dominican Sue,
- 20:16Speaker 1: which is very interesting, and they also signed Joseph Lynn ball,
- 20:19Speaker 1: So they're addressing their biggest weakness, which has been stopping
- 20:22Speaker 1: the run. I don't know how quickly they can get
- 20:24Speaker 1: these new players up to speed, but you know the
- 20:27Speaker 1: Colts are going to try to run the ball with
- 20:28Speaker 1: Jonathan Taylor. That's like my only hesitation. But I still
- 20:31Speaker 1: think the Eagles are going to pull away and dominate
- 20:35Speaker 1: by the end of this game. It'll be not even close,
- 20:37Speaker 1: but it could be close for a little bit. If
- 20:39Speaker 1: you're taking them minus seven, boy, what are you doing? Yeah,
- 20:42Speaker 1: Eagles blow out. Nick Sirianni Coach of the Year, Rachel's
- 20:46Speaker 1: Coach of the Years so far as going to show
- 20:48Speaker 1: that you need to have head coach experience in the league. Um, okay,
- 20:55Speaker 1: up Max lines at Giants. Giants were favored by three.
- 20:58Speaker 1: I know this is crazy, Z, but it's just in
- 21:01Speaker 1: my gut. I literally try. I try to physically right
- 21:06Speaker 1: Giants in and I can't do it. I am going Lions. Um.
- 21:11Speaker 1: I read this on ESPN. I this I pulled this.
- 21:13Speaker 1: Dad Barkley is going against the thirty first ranked team
- 21:17Speaker 1: against the run that gives up a hundred and sixty
- 21:20Speaker 1: one yards rushing game per game. That is terrifying. I
- 21:23Speaker 1: am scared, um and and that was even more so
- 21:26Speaker 1: why I wanted to type in Giants. But still I
- 21:28Speaker 1: couldn't do it. The Lions. They hot right now, They're
- 21:32Speaker 1: coming off their first road win. If the Lions can
- 21:35Speaker 1: pull this off, and I'm a genius, okay, and and
- 21:37Speaker 1: it's proved, this would be the first time that the
- 21:40Speaker 1: Lions have won three games in a row since November
- 21:44Speaker 1: of twenty seven. Team that is insane. Give Dan Campbell
- 21:50Speaker 1: the keys to the dang city if this happens. I
- 21:53Speaker 1: know it's crazy and probably a little dumb, but I
- 21:56Speaker 1: like to just have one pick of a major underdog.
- 21:59Speaker 1: I think that maybe maybe the numbers don't say that
- 22:02Speaker 1: the major underdog because Lions hype is real right now,
- 22:05Speaker 1: But um, I consider them the major underdog. But I'm
- 22:07Speaker 1: still going Lions. Graver, what do you like here? I'm sorry,
- 22:11Speaker 1: but I cannot pick the Lions. Their defense is just
- 22:14Speaker 1: not good enough to be It is a dumb decision,
- 22:18Speaker 1: but still doing it. Any given under anything can happen,
- 22:21Speaker 1: Balls bounce weird ways, you never know you could win.
- 22:24Speaker 1: Oh that was poetic, But I'm gonna go with the Giants.
- 22:27Speaker 1: I'm going to Giants too. Sorry, it's like you guys
- 22:33Speaker 1: don't believe in miracles, Like, why do you even watch
- 22:36Speaker 1: football if you believe in miracles. I'm a Titans fan.
- 22:40Speaker 1: Music City miracles. Um, Jets at Patriots, Patriots favored by three,
- 22:47Speaker 1: I'm going Jets here. I have Jets winning twenty four
- 22:49Speaker 1: to twenty. Um there. The last time they played the Patriots,
- 22:54Speaker 1: we were hot on the Jets. Okay, they came off
- 22:56Speaker 1: four straight wins. They had they had just beaten the
- 23:00Speaker 1: Hackers a couple of games ago. Sauce was wearing the
- 23:02Speaker 1: cheese hat. We were like, oh my god, the Jets
- 23:05Speaker 1: are gonna beat the Patriots and this is gonna be
- 23:07Speaker 1: so fun. Um. The Jets lost the Patriots one whoops
- 23:13Speaker 1: the daisies. Um, this is their second chance. You don't,
- 23:16Speaker 1: you don't. You don't get second chances often, Okay, and
- 23:19Speaker 1: this is their second opportunity to take down Bill Belichick
- 23:23Speaker 1: slay the Giant. I think that this is this is
- 23:25Speaker 1: another one that I just want to happen. Um. I
- 23:29Speaker 1: know that they are away there at Gillette. That is
- 23:33Speaker 1: going to be difficult. Zach Wilson versus Bill Belichick usually no,
- 23:38Speaker 1: thank you. Um, but I'm doing it. I'm going Jets
- 23:40Speaker 1: for everybody, like, I am not with you. I'm sorry,
- 23:45Speaker 1: I didn't think so. I just think that Patriots defense
- 23:48Speaker 1: is extremely underrated, especially this season, and I don't have
- 23:54Speaker 1: any confidence that the Jets can like do what they
- 23:57Speaker 1: need to do in a close game to pull out
- 23:59Speaker 1: a win. So I am going to take Patriots minus three.
- 24:03Speaker 1: I was just looking at the Patriots defense and they
- 24:05Speaker 1: had been holding teams to like insane scores, Like they
- 24:09Speaker 1: just held the Colts to three, They held the jetice seventeen. Um,
- 24:13Speaker 1: they they held the Browns to fifteen. They held the
- 24:15Speaker 1: Lions to zero zero when they were a really hot
- 24:18Speaker 1: offense at the time. Yes, yes, I am afraid of
- 24:22Speaker 1: the defense. And again this is another stupid pick, but
- 24:24Speaker 1: I'm going with him. What you're making your picks with
- 24:26Speaker 1: your heart, which I like. Uh, I'm I'm also with
- 24:30Speaker 1: Graver though I'm thinking the Patriots. I think Zach Wilson
- 24:34Speaker 1: had three interceptions last time they played. Bill Belichick's just
- 24:38Speaker 1: scary to go against when you're young quarterback. This is
- 24:41Speaker 1: this is fun because I feel like since we're differing
- 24:45Speaker 1: on so many picks this week, you know, your girl
- 24:48Speaker 1: could make some moves. I'm already behind, so what do
- 24:51Speaker 1: I care if I lave? Okay? And then finally we've
- 24:54Speaker 1: got forty Niners at Cardinals in Mexico City, another international game.
- 24:59Speaker 1: The forty Niners are favored by eight. Um. I have
- 25:02Speaker 1: them winning by just seven seven and twenty um. Forty
- 25:07Speaker 1: Niners are just electric. They are so fun. Right now,
- 25:10Speaker 1: there's this offense since Christian McCaffrey join is just it's dumb.
- 25:15Speaker 1: It's dumb. I don't know if you guys saw that
- 25:17Speaker 1: video of Jimmy g just being like greeted by all
- 25:19Speaker 1: the Warriors cheerleaders like he's he's god, He's a god
- 25:22Speaker 1: in the city. I'm going forty Niners. I still think
- 25:26Speaker 1: the Cardinals are like just like a little bit of
- 25:28Speaker 1: a messy situation. I haven't watched in season Hard Knocks yet.
- 25:31Speaker 1: I gotta get on that. Um, there's not enough juicy
- 25:34Speaker 1: drama happening yet. But what do you guys think in
- 25:36Speaker 1: this game, Craver, what would you like? I am with you.
- 25:39Speaker 1: I think the Niners win, but the Cardinals keep it close.
- 25:42Speaker 1: And I like the Cardinals even more if Colt McCoy
- 25:45Speaker 1: plays because Kyler Murray just I don't know. They looked
- 25:49Speaker 1: like the well run offense last week for the first
- 25:51Speaker 1: time this season. So I'm taking Arizona plus eight, and
- 25:55Speaker 1: I think that it wouldn't be crazy because this game
- 25:58Speaker 1: is in Mexico City. It's gonna be weird. It wouldn't
- 26:02Speaker 1: be crazy or shocking to me if Arizona actually did
- 26:05Speaker 1: outright win this game. But I think San Francisco wins,
- 26:08Speaker 1: but not by eight points, So I'm picking Arizona. I
- 26:10Speaker 1: thought it was interesting. The Boarders have been like training
- 26:12Speaker 1: in Colorado apparently the entire week to get used to
- 26:15Speaker 1: them to the altitude. The altitude, thank you, um, what
- 26:22Speaker 1: are you gonna go? In the Niners? Big? They're gonna
- 26:25Speaker 1: cover the cover They're gonna I feel like each week
- 26:29Speaker 1: they're getting better and better and more comfortable in the offense.
- 26:32Speaker 1: And they should have covered last week against the Chargers,
- 26:38Speaker 1: so they'll do it against the Cardinals. Okay, coming up
- 26:41Speaker 1: after the break, we were talking the best thing and
- 26:44Speaker 1: the worst thing that I saw, So don't go he's
- 27:02Speaker 1: the bast Okay, this is the best and the worst
- 27:07Speaker 1: thing that I saw this week. The best thing that
- 27:09Speaker 1: I saw was that is this true. The gloves and
- 27:13Speaker 1: the sleeve from the one handed justin Jefferson in front
- 27:18Speaker 1: of the pod. Cash is going into the Hall of Fame.
- 27:22Speaker 1: Isn't that sane? Like that's insane for him? Also, how
- 27:28Speaker 1: cheese would you be if your stuff was in the
- 27:30Speaker 1: Hall of Fame and then you didn't make it in
- 27:31Speaker 1: at all of it? I feel like if he goes
- 27:35Speaker 1: at this pace, he'll be there. Yeah, he's the future
- 27:37Speaker 1: Hall of Famer. But it's really early to say that
- 27:39Speaker 1: because you know, you gotta put like longevity plays a
- 27:41Speaker 1: part in these things. But yeah, but don't you think
- 27:45Speaker 1: that if you're that's messed up. That's messed up. If
- 27:48Speaker 1: your gloves and your stuff from the greatest catch of
- 27:51Speaker 1: all time is in the Hall of Fame and you
- 27:55Speaker 1: don't make it at all. Yeah, now that is messed up.
- 28:00Speaker 1: That is messed up. That's weird again, friend of the pot,
- 28:03Speaker 1: he was our friend before he was your guy's friend.
- 28:04Speaker 1: So I just just want to put it out there. Uh.
- 28:07Speaker 1: And then the worst thing I saw, guys, it's just
- 28:09Speaker 1: like bummed me out. And it was also like I
- 28:13Speaker 1: want to say it's beautiful, but it's just like really
- 28:15Speaker 1: sad and also goes to show like, Okay, so I
- 28:19Speaker 1: want to play you this clip of Derek Carr after
- 28:22Speaker 1: getting beat by Jeff Saturday. Everyone is upset about Jeff
- 28:25Speaker 1: Saturday Night, even Derek Carr. Let's let's roll the clip,
- 28:28Speaker 1: let's listen to it. Sorry for being emotional. I'm just
- 28:33Speaker 1: piste off about some of the things you know that
- 28:40Speaker 1: a lot of us try and do just to practice, well,
- 28:43Speaker 1: we put our bodies through just asleep at night, and
- 28:57Speaker 1: for that to be the result of all that effort,
- 29:02Speaker 1: this is meal. Okay, this is gonna sound bad. I
- 29:07Speaker 1: know he's being sincere here and he's not like trying
- 29:10Speaker 1: to make a show of it, but it is such
- 29:12Speaker 1: a show. And like his words are so like sounds
- 29:16Speaker 1: like they're like he was. It sounds like he's like
- 29:18Speaker 1: doing an audition forming. He's performing. I don't know if
- 29:23Speaker 1: he's performing for team, for the media, for whatever, but
- 29:27Speaker 1: that was a performance. To come on, it's a great performance.
- 29:32Speaker 1: I'm buying it. I don't think I'm not buying it.
- 29:35Speaker 1: I am buying it. If I was in a movie,
- 29:37Speaker 1: i'd be like giving the oscar I'm in. I'm so in,
- 29:44Speaker 1: But no, I'm saying no, I'm saying he I'm saying
- 29:48Speaker 1: he's being authentic, but he's doing a good job of
- 29:51Speaker 1: acting meeting. I don't know. I don't know. I don't
- 29:55Speaker 1: think that Derek cars like putting on this big show
- 29:58Speaker 1: and like crying. Although it is funny if you watch
- 30:00Speaker 1: the full clip, somebody does interrupt him and he goes, yes,
- 30:05Speaker 1: he goes. He rehearsed it in front of his mirror,
- 30:07Speaker 1: and he wants to perform it. I think he may
- 30:10Speaker 1: really get all the lines out. He may really feel sad,
- 30:13Speaker 1: But like, who who talks like that at a press conference?
- 30:17Speaker 1: Come on, I've done so many self tapes doing the
- 30:20Speaker 1: same thing, just like you know, welling up. I can
- 30:23Speaker 1: do it. I see it. I can see it a
- 30:25Speaker 1: thousand miles west. Recognize Oscar is yours and fake organized
- 30:30Speaker 1: fake Uh guys, that is it. That is all. That's
