  Speaker 1: Taylor put it on the pole Hall of Fame Game tonight.
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: Will you watch? Give them options? Multiple choice?
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: One drive, one quarter, one half, none of the above.
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: I'm thinking like one drive, Yes, what do you think,
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: Mikey one drive each team offensive.
• 0:37
  Speaker 3: No, No, you're You're not even gonna see a starter
• 0:40
  Speaker 3: in the game. I'm not I'm not wasting my time.
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but you're gonna see guys on a field playing football.
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: That's what you're gonna see.
• 0:47
  Speaker 3: I mean, they've been trying to figure that out for
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: a long time, whether it be the UFL, the XFL,
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: the Canadian football. They try and just say, hey, it's
• 0:57
  Speaker 3: guys on the field playing football. Watch it, and it's
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: it's just not the same. We are spoiled. We need
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: real college football, we need real NFL. Those are what I'll.
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: Watch, all right, is he What do you say? I'm
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: not even gonna turn it on. I don't even know
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: what time it's on.
• 1:10
  Speaker 4: I don't even know what channel it's on, I don't
• 1:12
  Speaker 4: know who's playing the fact that it's called the Hall
• 1:14
  Speaker 4: of Fame Game is the only reason why anybody would
• 1:17
  Speaker 4: even be like, hey, maybe.
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: I should watch that.
• 1:18
  Speaker 4: It's the first preseason game from I'm gonna go ahead
• 1:21
  Speaker 4: and guess to who are the teams again?
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: It's Panthers and Cardinals. Yeah. Again, I wouldn't watch.
• 1:26
  Speaker 4: I would, man, I would skip that game in the postseason, Okay,
• 1:31
  Speaker 4: I would. I would say, Hey, if I'm going to
• 1:33
  Speaker 4: miss a single playoff game, this is gonna.
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: Be the on So don't make me watch their third stringers.
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: Panthers Carolina Mikey is the four o'clock game. It doesn't
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: get the four to twenty five billing, right, it's a
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: four o'clock game.
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: It's a four oh five, right.
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: It's the other game in that window, so nothing so
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: the one o'clock window isn't completely stacked.
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: Yes, yes, although the Panthers are intriguing. I will say that,
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: you know.
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: They won a Super Bowl last year. I mean it
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: was just taking the Rams as far as they did
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: in that one game, but that's their super Bowl.
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: Yes, Aaron Donald, this is crazy. Their speculation as to
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: whether or not he's going to return. He officially worked
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: out for the Rams, so I think we could stop
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: speculating because he's gonna return, and is he This is
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: the first time in a long time where I can
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: remember thinking to myself. There is such an overwhelming favorite
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: in the NFL that I am tempted just to take
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: the Rams over the field because that team is that good.
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: You have to be so good to pry Aaron Donald
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: out of retirement. And the only reason he would come
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: out of retirement is not money. Certainly, he is delaying
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: his place in Canton. He will delay that by however
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: many years he delays it by. But he is coming
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: because he thinks this team can win a super Bowl.
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: Otherwise why would he come back? And so I am
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: fascinated by the idea that a guy who has been
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: out for a couple of years kept himself in shape
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: is one of the greatest defensive lineman we've ever seen.
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: I am fascinated by the idea of a him coming
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: back and be that team being so dominant where they
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: feel like the overwhelming team favorite to win a super
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: Bowl in his sport, in which anything could happen.
• 3:13
  Speaker 4: What do you imagine the reason was for Aaron Donald
• 3:17
  Speaker 4: actually working out at the facility, because a I mean,
• 3:21
  Speaker 4: we know, if he just has access, going to be
• 3:23
  Speaker 4: for this team, right, But for what, like Aaron Donald
• 3:26
  Speaker 4: of all people, It's not like do you think he's
• 3:28
  Speaker 4: testing his body to see if he's capable of doing that.
• 3:31
  Speaker 4: I think that's what he's been doing prepping for this. Right,
• 3:34
  Speaker 4: So if Aaron Donald feels, hey, I'm in good shape,
• 3:37
  Speaker 4: I'm in my playing shape, he doesn't have to work
• 3:40
  Speaker 4: out at all. He'll be like, yeah, I'm here, let's
• 3:42
  Speaker 4: go ahead and play. The other thing is the teams
• 3:46
  Speaker 4: that have had this level of favorite right attached to
• 3:51
  Speaker 4: them if he joins the team. I can only think
• 3:53
  Speaker 4: of three in my lifetime. It was the eighty six Bears,
• 3:59
  Speaker 4: and I was, you know, nine, so I'm probably thinking
• 4:03
  Speaker 4: during the season they became that favorite, not necessarily preseason.
• 4:07
  Speaker 4: The other one was the Randy Moss Patriots, which obviously
• 4:11
  Speaker 4: almost pulled it off, almost did that. And then the
• 4:13
  Speaker 4: third team was and I'm gonna say it was the
• 4:16
  Speaker 4: team that lost to Tom Brady in in his first
• 4:20
  Speaker 4: Super Bowl. It was the greatest show on turf their
• 4:23
  Speaker 4: second year, right, Yes, because everybody felt unstoppable. Yes they did,
• 4:27
  Speaker 4: and for whatever reason I remember, maybe they even improved
• 4:30
  Speaker 4: the offense by making you know, a free agent addition.
• 4:34
  Speaker 4: So of those three, one of them from the Super Bowl, Yes,
• 4:40
  Speaker 4: But I don't know if I'm missing anybody? Am I
• 4:42
  Speaker 4: missing anybody?
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: Mikey?
• 4:43
  Speaker 4: Just in terms of like teams that come to mind
• 4:45
  Speaker 4: that were big time favorite.
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: Well, first off with the eighty five Bears, I think
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: you have it right. I think headed into the season
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: they were overwhelming favorites. That defense was so good and
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: they had Walter Payton, I think the best running back
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: in the NFL at the time, and they pulled it off.
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and if they dominated every yes.
• 5:00
  Speaker 4: It felt like maybe quarterbacks weren't that crucial, but maybe
• 5:04
  Speaker 4: Jim McMahon could still be the not that he was bad,
• 5:07
  Speaker 4: but that he could still be the quarterback of that
• 5:09
  Speaker 4: team and say, yeah, they're overwhelming favorites, because these days
• 5:12
  Speaker 4: you almost have to have the elite level quarterback for
• 5:15
  Speaker 4: you to say going into a season, hey, they are
• 5:18
  Speaker 4: potentially favorites.
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: I mean one of those Chiefs teams, Bike, he has
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: to they had to be like overwhelming favorites headed into
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: a season. No good point, yes, but which one.
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: I feel like they were favorites, But I don't feel
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: like it was them or the field in any discussion.
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: The way we're gonna have it. With the Rams, I
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: feel like it was like, yeah, the Chiefs will probably
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: be there at the end. But I would be stunned
• 5:41
  Speaker 3: if the Rams aren't at least in the Super Bowl,
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: let alone winning.
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: It this year. Same. Yes, that's crazy, but that's without
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: Aaron Donald. I know right that.
• 5:51
  Speaker 3: Yes, they're in the same division as the reigning Super
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: Bowl champions, and we're.
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: Like, they're not winning. Wow.
• 5:59
  Speaker 4: According to Google AI overview, the biggest favorite that the
• 6:04
  Speaker 4: Kansas City Chiefs were entering a season was twenty twenty four,
• 6:09
  Speaker 4: coming off.
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: Of a Super Bowl win. Right, and they didn't go
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: back to back, did they? I'm so confused with it.
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: You're listen rightfully, So you were asking these questions because
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: the Chiefs teams are starting to blur, they're starting to
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: blend together. I have no idea which Chiefs team we're talking. Yeah,
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: the Chiefs team would to rekill that won a Super Bowl.
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: Then he left came to Miami. Then he had a
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: different set of Kansas City Chiefs. I have no idea
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: which team you're talking about. You're right, I don't know
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: if they went back to back that year.
• 6:36
  Speaker 4: So the twenty twenty four year, they went to the
• 6:38
  Speaker 4: Super Bowl and lost to the Eagles.
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: Okay, all right, to Jalen Hurts, who should have beaten
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: him twice in three years.
• 6:46
  Speaker 4: Why did twenty twenty four seem like so long ago?
• 6:48
  Speaker 4: This dude, I don't know, it feels like ten years ago.
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: I've lost track of time. But am I wrong here? Like?
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: What are the Rams headed into the season?
• 6:58
  Speaker 5: You have a Taylor yeah on FanDuel the RAM plus
• 7:00
  Speaker 5: five to fifty. I think I'm the only one here
• 7:03
  Speaker 5: who is not doing Rams versus the field? Why because
• 7:06
  Speaker 5: the overwhelming favorite in the NFL. Like you look at
• 7:09
  Speaker 5: some of the biggest favorites in NFL history, Oh seven
• 7:12
  Speaker 5: Patriots that as he mentioned, they were plus two to fifty,
• 7:15
  Speaker 5: twenty seventeen Patriots plus two to seventy five, two thousand
• 7:19
  Speaker 5: Rams plus three hundred. None of those teams won the
• 7:22
  Speaker 5: Super Bowl. There's just as good as team.
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: I know.
• 7:26
  Speaker 5: Teams might not have the RAMS roster on paper, but
• 7:29
  Speaker 5: in a sport like the NFL that's designed to have
• 7:32
  Speaker 5: as much parody as it is, you're one Stafford injury away.
• 7:36
  Speaker 5: You're you're one Miles Garrett injury away from a team
• 7:39
  Speaker 5: having major question marks over a seventeen game season.
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: I think that's why Mikey is saying he'd be shocked
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: if they didn't just make the super Bowl. Like, once
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: you get to the super Bowl, anything can happen. You're
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: playing a really good team obviously out of the other conference.
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: But I think that's why Mikey is comfortable in saying
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: I'd be shocked if they weren't in the super Bowl.
• 7:59
  Speaker 4: Well because part for me, part of this for me,
• 8:02
  Speaker 4: the reason that they feel like greater favorites and maybe
• 8:05
  Speaker 4: they will be if they signed Aaron Donald, it might
• 8:07
  Speaker 4: drop to the two hundred plus three hundred range. Is
• 8:09
  Speaker 4: who is second place? Who is the second best team
• 8:13
  Speaker 4: in your mind off the Dome going into this season?
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: Seattle? Same division, right, same division?
• 8:20
  Speaker 4: You probably figure, you know, the Rams would you know,
• 8:24
  Speaker 4: probably have to get past them to get to the
• 8:26
  Speaker 4: super Bowl.
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: But I believe they could, right. What about from the
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: other conference?
• 8:29
  Speaker 5: Like is it Buffalo Bill's Ravens Bills and Ravens Chiefs
• 8:35
  Speaker 5: with new coaches?
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: Yes?
• 8:36
  Speaker 4: Right, So how do you factor that in? They could
• 8:39
  Speaker 4: be disasters, right, They could be coaches that don't really
• 8:41
  Speaker 4: work out. And so because of all that, because there
• 8:44
  Speaker 4: isn't some team right at their heels except for Look,
• 8:48
  Speaker 4: anybody who thinks Sam Darnold's going to win back to
• 8:50
  Speaker 4: back Super Bowls. Get that person into a mental institution. Okay,
• 8:53
  Speaker 4: I don't think he wouldn't won.
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: They're either genius or right.
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: Yes, but he won the one, right, Yeah, but we
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: can't be surprised if he wins a second in the
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: very next year.
• 9:05
  Speaker 4: I would be absolutely Look, I would rather find me
• 9:10
  Speaker 4: a bet that says, hey, the Seattle Seahawks will not
• 9:13
  Speaker 4: win another Super Bowl. I'm sure the odds are terrible.
• 9:15
  Speaker 4: I bet have to bet one thousand to win a dollar, right,
• 9:17
  Speaker 4: but I do it?
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: Right?
• 9:18
  Speaker 5: Is the counter to your point of trying to find
• 9:21
  Speaker 5: who the second best NFL team is when it comes
• 9:25
  Speaker 5: to Rams versus the field. I think the reason why
• 9:28
  Speaker 5: most people would take the field is we don't know
• 9:30
  Speaker 5: who the second best NFL team is. But if you're
• 9:33
  Speaker 5: if our options are we get the Seahawks, the Bills,
• 9:36
  Speaker 5: the Ravens, the Chargers, the Patriots, the Eagles, the Chiefs,
• 9:39
  Speaker 5: the Texans, the forty nine Ers, Broncos, more people are
• 9:42
  Speaker 5: going to be comfortable with taking that option than taking
• 9:46
  Speaker 5: the Rams and banking on a RAMS season playing out
• 9:49
  Speaker 5: perfectly on paper. Translating that to the field.
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: By playing out perfectly. You mean Stafford has to stay healthy.
• 9:56
  Speaker 4: Right, That's the only guy, right, because they have depth
• 9:58
  Speaker 4: at other spots that they and Cupboard. Now, if you're
• 10:01
  Speaker 4: losing Miles Garrett for the season, that's a whole different question.
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: Especially if you have Donald though, that's right.
• 10:07
  Speaker 4: But even then you still have Aaron Donald, then you
• 10:10
  Speaker 4: have a great you still have a great defensive line.
• 10:12
  Speaker 4: So yeah, and the fact that I didn't even think
• 10:15
  Speaker 4: about the Patriots, because that's just gonna be hard to replicate.
• 10:18
  Speaker 4: They had the easy schedule, they had, you know, a
• 10:21
  Speaker 4: lot of things going their way.
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: And it's just going to be It's good to be
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: a little bit more tough this year.
• 10:26
  Speaker 3: See you say it's just Stafford, but you could lose
• 10:28
  Speaker 3: like two offensive linemen and all of a sudden, your
• 10:31
  Speaker 3: entire game plan becomes questionable each week because you can't
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: do what it is you do and real quick, I
• 10:39
  Speaker 3: just want to go back to something. Is he asked
• 10:41
  Speaker 3: earlier why Aaron Donald needed to go in today? Do
• 10:45
  Speaker 3: you think maybe he just wanted to walk into the
• 10:47
  Speaker 3: facility and see how it feels like I think maybe
• 10:50
  Speaker 3: he just wanted to walk in and be like Am
• 10:52
  Speaker 3: I dreading this right now? Or is this like where
• 10:55
  Speaker 3: I want to be?
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: Is this the kind of thing where.
• 10:57
  Speaker 3: I'm excited to go see these guys in the locker room.
• 11:00
  Speaker 3: Or am I like, yeah, I'm gonna go try and
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: win one more Super Bowl?
• 11:03
  Speaker 5: I would do gottsto because stop saying Aaron Donald might return.
• 11:07
  Speaker 5: I mean, let me be the first to report Aaron
• 11:12
  Speaker 5: Donald will be playing this season for the Rams. Yeah,
• 11:15
  Speaker 5: credit me, please.
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: He's back. Mikey, what do you have him doing?
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: Just poking around, peaking around the facility, check it out,
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: practicing how the pick is doing this season.
• 11:25
  Speaker 3: I got him opening the door to the facility, walking in,
• 11:28
  Speaker 3: taking a deep breath in and going, yeah, I think
• 11:32
  Speaker 3: this is where I want to I think.
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: I want to. Yeah.
• 11:34
  Speaker 3: Just just let let me smell it.
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: Let me smell what the facility is like. Let me
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: say hello, not the locker room.
• 11:41
  Speaker 3: Let me let me say hello to the guy in
• 11:43
  Speaker 3: accounting who's walking by that I remember from three years
• 11:46
  Speaker 3: ago when I was here.
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: Just be like, you know I missed that guy.
• 11:49
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I will come back.
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: So a sniff test.
• 11:53
  Speaker 4: Test, Mikey to your original point about the offensive lineman,
• 11:58
  Speaker 4: look somebody's gonna have to the research for this about
• 12:01
  Speaker 4: this for me, but I swear on my life, every
• 12:05
  Speaker 4: team in the NFL, even especially the good ones, or
• 12:07
  Speaker 4: even the good ones, have at least two significant offensive
• 12:11
  Speaker 4: line injuries every single year. And it doesn't frankly, the
• 12:15
  Speaker 4: earlier the better because if you get that done out
• 12:17
  Speaker 4: of the way, you find somebody else, you create a
• 12:19
  Speaker 4: rhythm of chemistry with that offensive line, and you're good.
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: To me.
• 12:22
  Speaker 4: Yes, offensive line is a lot about talent and everything
• 12:24
  Speaker 4: else in size and ability, but most of that stuff
• 12:27
  Speaker 4: is scheme and chemistry and your offense and continuity. So
• 12:31
  Speaker 4: if you have the same five guys for any amount
• 12:33
  Speaker 4: of time, it doesn't matter which five guys.
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: Pretty sure they'll be okay five guys.
• 12:37
  Speaker 5: Yeah, but you saw with the Patriots where you have
• 12:40
  Speaker 5: a banged up Will Campbell going into the postseason, and
• 12:44
  Speaker 5: then if you even show the slightest bit of weakness
• 12:48
  Speaker 5: on your offensive line against a Mike McDonald defense in Seattle,
• 12:52
  Speaker 5: those guys are just gonna pin their ears back and
• 12:55
  Speaker 5: just tee off on your quarterback. And we saw that
• 12:58
  Speaker 5: in the Super Bowl where Drake May. Drake May could
• 13:02
  Speaker 5: have had all day to throw back there. He was
• 13:04
  Speaker 5: never going to have any success in that game because
• 13:07
  Speaker 5: of how well Seattle's defense was playing.
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: We do this thing with Stafford though, about him staying healthy.
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: He played seventeen games last year, year before started sixteen games,
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: year before started fifteen games. If he merely starts fifteen
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: games this year, I feel like the Rams are gonna
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: be the one seed and go to the super Bowl.
• 13:23
  Speaker 4: This is why all the question marks Flemm's me like,
• 13:25
  Speaker 4: just because he got a little extra gray in the beard,
• 13:27
  Speaker 4: like all of a sudden he's gonna get injured, or
• 13:29
  Speaker 4: because he had to think about for a second whether
• 13:32
  Speaker 4: he was going to come back, Like, no, he's he's
• 13:34
  Speaker 4: there's no reason for him to be hurt unless you
• 13:36
  Speaker 4: know that O line of Swiss cheese.
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: Yes.
• 13:38
  Speaker 5: Yeah, but once you start getting into the territory of
• 13:41
  Speaker 5: having like the aggravated spinal disc and the epidural shots. Yes,
• 13:45
  Speaker 5: I think it is fair that people could question, like,
• 13:49
  Speaker 5: can this guy stay healthy? The older he gets.
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: It'll make you nervous those things, Yes, no question had
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: how many of you hads to two or three?
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: Thank you for another one? Or I could use one?
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: I take one day if I could my doctor would
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: let me.
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: I mean nothing, loosens up the back like an old needle,
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: you know, the big needle.
• 14:07
  Speaker 4: Any one of those in my ass right now, esus,
• 14:09
  Speaker 4: my upper hamstring has killing me.
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: Anytime the doctor does it, I can't watch. Watch Why
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: would you watch?
• 14:14
  Speaker 4: Yeah?
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: I can't. I don't watch when they're drawing blood for me. Oh,
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: I can't do it.
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: Put it on the pole, tailor, can you watch the
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: doctor draw blood from your veins?
• 14:24
  Speaker 5: Stu, I'm gonna say something that's probably gonna surprise everybody here. Yeah,
• 14:28
  Speaker 5: the Hall of Fame game tonight. I'm gonna watch every snap.
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: Get out of here. I'm gonna watch.
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: So you're gonna you're gonna on the pole. You're gonna
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: say none of the above, because why not that you're
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: not watching any You're watching all of it.
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: The Yankees not playing today, No, the Yankees do have
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: an off day.
• 14:41
  Speaker 5: But when you were running through the options, I was like,
• 14:43
  Speaker 5: where was the every snap option? Because for me, what
• 14:48
  Speaker 5: the best part of preseason is there's probably like five
• 14:52
  Speaker 5: to ten roster spots up for grabs for for every
• 14:56
  Speaker 5: team in the NFL. I love That's why I like
• 14:59
  Speaker 5: the hard knocks aspect of a bad team because you
• 15:02
  Speaker 5: see the inner workings, you see the guys getting cut.
• 15:05
  Speaker 5: I like seeing the guys that are out there fighting
• 15:07
  Speaker 5: for a team, and I think that's the best part
• 15:10
  Speaker 5: of the preseason games. If you gave me the option, hey,
• 15:13
  Speaker 5: you could watch the first quarter of a preseason game
• 15:15
  Speaker 5: or a fourth quarter of a preseason you're watching the
• 15:17
  Speaker 5: fourth Yeah, I might turn this game on to the
• 15:19
  Speaker 5: second half.
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, guys trying to get a job. Yeah, I like
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: that in your life. Make that an option, just the
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: second half.
• 15:26
  Speaker 4: The main reason I would watch one of these is
• 15:28
  Speaker 4: just to steal any cool plays that they've got and
• 15:31
  Speaker 4: throw it into my offensive playbook.
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: However, it is the Cardinals and the Panthers.
• 15:35
  Speaker 4: Yeah, they're not gonna really unload a bunch of fancy
• 15:38
  Speaker 4: stuff in the Hall of Fame game.
• 15:40
  Speaker 3: Let's show all our fun stuff with our third stringers
• 15:43
  Speaker 3: in a preseason game.
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: Yes, you want to try to get a quarterback killed,
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: that's what you do. Yeah, but this is adorable, guys.
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: Because the walk onto North Carolina's football team. He likes
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: to watch guys, you know, trying to get a job
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: in the third or fourth quarter.
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: Or a preseason game number one.
• 15:57
  Speaker 5: Yeah, so the only people who are gonna be watching
• 16:00
  Speaker 5: in the fourth quarter are going to be people like
• 16:02
  Speaker 5: me that want to romanticize football, and then the people
• 16:06
  Speaker 5: that are seeing if they could hit the over thirty
• 16:09
  Speaker 5: five and a half. Because I was listening earlier, Chris
• 16:12
  Speaker 5: Canty on ESPN Radio was given his best picks for
• 16:15
  Speaker 5: the game, and I was like, you've got to kid,
• 16:17
  Speaker 5: I love football. Betting on the preseason football bridge too
• 16:20
  Speaker 5: far for me.
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: Put it on the pole.
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: Is betting on preseason football a bridge too far for you?
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: You keep that up?
• 16:28
  Speaker 4: Eventually ESPN will be doing a mediocre podcast about you.
• 16:31
  Speaker 5: I think his best pick tonight was Cardinals to score
• 16:36
  Speaker 5: a touchdown on the opening drive plus seven hundred. He
• 16:40
  Speaker 5: really likes Carson Beck starting tonight for the Cardinals.
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: Oh my goodness, why are you ripping the.
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: Tell me whatever?
• 17:00
  Speaker 5: Allegedly? Oh Tony did it right.
• 17:01
  Speaker 4: I'm no, that's a meat lacking from this podcast. I
• 17:07
  Speaker 4: don't really know if there's anything good about it, to
• 17:09
  Speaker 4: be honest, but you.
• 17:09
  Speaker 2: Would agree there's no way that someone BET's like crazy.
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: According to this thirty for thirty was insane. They said
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: the amount of bets his trainer was putting in and
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: there's no I don't care how much money you have,
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: is he If someone is withdrawing sixteen million dollars from
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: your account, you're aware of it, right, you know what's
• 17:28
  Speaker 2: going on.
• 17:28
  Speaker 4: And not if you are not running your own financial account,
• 17:32
  Speaker 4: you might check on it every once in a while.
• 17:33
  Speaker 4: Like I don't know if Drake checks on his account
• 17:36
  Speaker 4: all the time before he puts in a three million
• 17:38
  Speaker 4: dollar bet for a loser, which.
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: By the way, I don't buy.
• 17:41
  Speaker 4: I feel like he just puts out a number and
• 17:43
  Speaker 4: he's probably hedged a million times. He's probably found different ways,
• 17:46
  Speaker 4: but he just wants to be famous for always putting
• 17:48
  Speaker 4: big money on a loser.
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: He really lost three dollars.
• 17:51
  Speaker 5: Yeah, we could test the millionaire if he notices money
• 17:56
  Speaker 5: missing from his account. STU, what's your.
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah, let's look that up. I got a guy named
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: Ipe who wants to help out.
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: I would notice, I mean, and Otani noticed.
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: I believe that he noticed. I should say that matter.
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: Have you listened to the podcast? I know there's no
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: evidence in there. Now you've got too far. I'm getting
• 18:16
  Speaker 2: to it.
• 18:17
  Speaker 4: Have you guys seen Not to change the subject, but
• 18:19
  Speaker 4: have you guys, seen this photo of Bill Belichick where
• 18:22
  Speaker 4: people believe that he might have had a nipple piercing,
• 18:26
  Speaker 4: like a barbell nipple piercing underneath there.
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: I mean, nothing would shock me at this point in
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: your favor.
• 18:31
  Speaker 4: Do it quick Google search and go Bill Belichick nipple piercing.
• 18:34
  Speaker 4: And there's a photo of him fully clothed with I
• 18:37
  Speaker 4: believe Jordan.
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: And not the Belichick I thought we'd be talking about
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: today by the wall, his son whatever.
• 18:43
  Speaker 4: And if you zoom in, it looks like it's like
• 18:47
  Speaker 4: protruding from the inside through the shirt.
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: A little bar bell. And this is where we are
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: with Bill Belichick.
• 18:55
  Speaker 4: That people would just believe that and think not that
• 18:59
  Speaker 4: that photo is fake, but just believe that, Oh yeah,
• 19:02
  Speaker 4: this seems like Bill Belichick. Now he's dating this young girl,
• 19:05
  Speaker 4: maybe he would do this to his nipple. I'm ninety
• 19:08
  Speaker 4: nine percent sure he was wearing a name tag on
• 19:11
  Speaker 4: that exact spot for a long time, and that is
• 19:14
  Speaker 4: just the imprint of the name tag, because.
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: You could see little holes in the shirt as well.
• 19:18
  Speaker 4: Yeah, but the fact, like fifteen years ago, the first
• 19:22
  Speaker 4: thing somebody would have said is, oh man, he still
• 19:24
  Speaker 4: got the imprint from his name.
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: Tag, But today it's like, does he have a nipple piercing? Right?
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: But it's a North Carolina it's a North Carolina shirt,
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: so it's a relatively new shirt.
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: It looks like a I mean, it looks like a
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: nipple ring.
• 19:41
  Speaker 3: I'm trying to figure out which one is more likely,
• 19:44
  Speaker 3: the fact that Bill Belichick got his nipple pierce or
• 19:47
  Speaker 3: the fact that he needed to walk around North Carolina
• 19:49
  Speaker 3: with a name tag long enough for that to happen.
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: Hey, who is that guy? Who are you?
• 19:57
  Speaker 5: So the picture comes the picture comes from a parody?
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: Does it? Okay? That's fantastic. Well that settles out.
• 20:05
  Speaker 4: Well, I doubled chaid because I googled it and and
• 20:08
  Speaker 4: the thing is is like, it doesn't look like a
• 20:11
  Speaker 4: nipple piercing like it actually looks like a like I said,
• 20:14
  Speaker 4: an imprint from a name tag. That's why I thought
• 20:16
  Speaker 4: it was real, Right, I'm not even sure it isn't real.
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: Well, it's not.
• 20:20
  Speaker 4: Well, now we're supposed to believe everything. Taylor says, it
• 20:23
  Speaker 4: has a.
• 20:24
  Speaker 5: It's been community noted. That's and it says, this is
• 20:27
  Speaker 5: an edited image made by an account that has been
• 20:30
  Speaker 5: repeatedly community noted for undisclosed digital edits.
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: Well, here's the difference between you and me. I'm not
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: on X. I got this, you know, three layers later
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: and again seems very very real. Well, who'd you get
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: it from something on Instagram? You fell for it? It's okay,
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: I do it. I do it all the time.
• 20:50
  Speaker 4: But that's the whole point, right, is the fact that
• 20:52
  Speaker 4: people can even fall for it now kind of tells
• 20:55
  Speaker 4: you where.
• 20:56
  Speaker 2: We are with Bill Belichick. That's all I would try
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: to go with that. Yell, what's going on with Belichick's son?
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: Uh?
• 21:03
  Speaker 5: Leave from the program?
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: Sick? I think they said, okay, all right, not to leave.
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: You were looking for.
• 21:11
  Speaker 5: No, I don't have a problem with Steve.
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: No, you're looking for Bill to leave men events.
• 21:14
  Speaker 5: Yes, yeah, the reported medical leave from you and ce football?
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: All right?
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: Is he? What were you telling me earlier? You asked
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: me to look up and I did look it up.
• 21:23
  Speaker 2: Jeffrey Yacht a Mets pitcher who does a crazy celebration.
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: He flips on the mat, slip. What does he do?
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: He doesn't split? Again. I looked it up. I watched it.
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: It was a parody account.
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: I'm sorry they had him flip it, But what why
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: are you infatuated with Jeffrey Yan of the New York Mets.
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: Well, first of all, as a Mets fan, you should
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: know who he is. Why that I remember watching baseball, Jeff.
• 21:51
  Speaker 4: If you did something like this, you wouldn't just be
• 21:55
  Speaker 4: I don't even know he's a pitcher, so you're not
• 21:57
  Speaker 4: gonna throw at him, But you wouldn't just like be
• 21:59
  Speaker 4: charged like your entire team.
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: Would be beamed with the ball as a result.
• 22:05
  Speaker 4: Because it is the most dramatic celebration I've ever seen
• 22:11
  Speaker 4: on the mound. And if this guy is gonna do
• 22:13
  Speaker 4: it now, he's been doing it his entire career apparently.
• 22:16
  Speaker 4: But Taylor, if he's going to do this every strikeout
• 22:19
  Speaker 4: that he gets in the Major League, like, either he
• 22:22
  Speaker 4: is changing, He's bringing the World Baseball Classic into our
• 22:27
  Speaker 4: you know, World Bakesaw plastic into the MLB, or he's
• 22:30
  Speaker 4: just gonna have to tone it down because you know,
• 22:32
  Speaker 4: the Freddie Freeman's of the world are going to get
• 22:34
  Speaker 4: him to calm down.
• 22:35
  Speaker 5: I am so out on Baseball's unwritten rules. If Yon
• 22:38
  Speaker 5: wants to jump around every time he gets a strikeout,
• 22:41
  Speaker 5: good good for him. This Mets team stinks. If he's
• 22:44
  Speaker 5: trying to bring a little excitement to it, like sue him.
• 22:48
  Speaker 5: But in The Guardians too, they were started mocking him
• 22:53
  Speaker 5: in the dugout, jumping around every time they were scoring
• 22:55
  Speaker 5: a run, doing doing the dance that he was doing.
• 22:59
  Speaker 5: The Guardians they had this incident over the weekend two
• 23:02
  Speaker 5: where they're getting mad about the trying to break up
• 23:05
  Speaker 5: a perfect game with a bunch baseball unwritten rules. I
• 23:08
  Speaker 5: love baseball. The unwritten rules is where baseball starts to
• 23:12
  Speaker 5: lose me. Where you have guys like Brian McCann. Brian McCann,
• 23:16
  Speaker 5: nobody guards baseball's unwritten rules like Brian McCann used to. Right,
• 23:21
  Speaker 5: just let people have fun. If baseball could be more
• 23:24
  Speaker 5: like the World Baseball Classic, I'm signing up for that
• 23:26
  Speaker 5: every time.
• 23:27
  Speaker 2: But you would agree that type of celebration when your
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: team is forty nine and sixty six is probably gonna
• 23:32
  Speaker 2: get someone beamed.
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 23:33
  Speaker 4: Well, he did get a lot of credit for just
• 23:35
  Speaker 4: bringing some energy into that, you know, terrible Mets dugout.
• 23:40
  Speaker 4: And so the thing that I was watching was not
• 23:42
  Speaker 4: just do I feel like he might get hurt doing
• 23:45
  Speaker 4: that celebration over and over again, But there's a couple
• 23:48
  Speaker 4: of plays where it wasn't even a strikeout and he's
• 23:51
  Speaker 4: like half in the air.
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: He's just so jumpy. Well, he was anticipating, he thought
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: it was a strike, you know.
• 23:56
  Speaker 4: I mean, I think the batter swung and and he's
• 24:00
  Speaker 4: still like whoop, like just jumps in the here.
• 24:03
  Speaker 3: You can't have a long career if that's what you
• 24:06
  Speaker 3: do after every strike, right, because there's going to come
• 24:08
  Speaker 3: a moment where you're going to jump up, to jump up,
• 24:11
  Speaker 3: and on your way down you're gonna be like, oh
• 24:13
  Speaker 3: that hurts, Yeah, I tore something, something's not and then
• 24:17
  Speaker 3: you just kind of have to stop doing that for
• 24:20
  Speaker 3: the rest of your life.
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: You can't have a long career.
• 24:22
  Speaker 3: It's it's gotta end soon.
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: But it's just starting, so hopefully not soon. It is
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: a great leap that he is. It's a great lead
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: when you're sixty six and forty nine. It makes me
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: think he's in the wrong sport. He's pitched.
• 24:36
  Speaker 3: It looks like Frank Dreben from The Naked Gun when
• 24:39
  Speaker 3: he calls strike three as an umpire, that's.
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: What it looks like. Really punches him out.
• 24:44
  Speaker 5: Yeah, he's pitched one inning for the Mets. And and
• 24:47
  Speaker 5: Stu Gott's is like, your team has done nothing but lose.
• 24:51
  Speaker 5: You've you've done nothing to contribute to all the losses
• 24:53
  Speaker 5: you have this season. So don't jump around when you
• 24:55
  Speaker 5: come in and throw a scoreless inning.
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: No, don't. You're forty nine and sixty six.
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: There's not a single reason to celebrate anything happening in
• 25:03
  Speaker 2: City field.
• 25:04
  Speaker 5: But how about this what they're one and oh when
• 25:06
  Speaker 5: Jeffrey Yon pitches, I'll keep doing it.
