• 0:31
  Speaker 1: you not be romantic about another episode of Bench with Vaneta?
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: Happy Tuesday, everybody. We are recording this on Monday, October
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: thirty first. And if you saw literally any piece of
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: my social media on Sunday, you will know that I
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: wore a ball cap for about six and a half hours.
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: I was in the makeup chair at an ungodly hour
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: getting every single piece of hair tucked away and glued down.
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: I am still finding pieces of glue behind my ears.
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: I have some bald spots, so I am actually slowly
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: but surely turning into Brian Dable. If you have not
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: seen these pictures, please do me a favor. Don't don't
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: let that bald cap go to waste. Go and look
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: at my Instagram. I think I pulled it off, you guys,
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: I think that I pulled off Brian Dabele Graver. What
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: did you think? Did you? Did you? Did? I tell you? Okay,
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: I was this close to being Scott Hansen. I was
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: this close to being Scott Hansen because he would have
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: been very fun. He's got so many little mannerisms and
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: so many quotes and so many lines that I could
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: have just said all day long. But I wanted to
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: go something. Something was urging me to go bald. I
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: just needed the bald cap on my head. Yeah, the
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: Witching Hour would have really added to the halloweenness of
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: Scott Hanson Wishing Hour. But no, you're oh you're Brian
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: dave Ball was just phenomenal. I mean, probably the best
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: costume I've seen at least in years, definitely this year.
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: Really appreciate that. Fantastic work. Thank you, buddy, thank you. Um.
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: I know IRV was very disturbed. He's like, you should
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: just go to a barn and see if you can
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: pick up a woman like that. Just let's see who's
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: desperate enough too hollow at your boy. Rachel Banetta as
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: Brian Dable. Um, okay, guys, somebody else that goes all
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: out on Halloween. And I so respect him for this,
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: and the whole show does it. We have him on
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: every single week. It is Kyle Brandt, and he really
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: he blew me away with this one. So let's see
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: what he had cooking on Halloween. Kabe. The very first
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: thing I want to ask you about is the Howie Long.
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: I don't know if we actually said this on the
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: podcast last week, but we were definitely talking about it
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: behind the scenes. We were like, it's gotta be Howie Long.
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: You said, you've had a barber like you're for a
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: very long time, and he even he was afraid to
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: actually cut your hair. Walk up, Yeah, I wouldn't do it.
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: I walked in there. Joe's cut my hair for years.
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: I walked in there. I showed him a picture of
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: Howie Long. I said I want this, and he goes, no, really,
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: what are we doing? And I'm like, Joe, I'm not kidding.
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: I want a flat top. And he was ready. He
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: was prepared to lay down his shears. He said, I
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: don't think we should do this. I don't really feel
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: comfortable doing it this you don't want to do this,
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: And I'm like, Joe, it's not a tattoo, it's just
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: a haircut. It'll grow back. Yeah, And he did it yesterday,
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: so it was nice and fresh for the Monday. Oh
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: a clean cut. He like lays the day he retires
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: for the rest of his life. He's like, this is
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: a step too far. What did how we say? Has
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: he has he messaged you? Is he approved? Yeah? I
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: went out and you know, Kyle Long, who I know
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: a little bit, and Chris Long, who I know a
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: little bit. They both tweeted like this is the best
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: thing I've seen. This is so funny. And how he's
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: not on social media, so at least not that I
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: could find. And so I was away from my phone
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: this affnoon at my kid's Halloween parade. And I get
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: back and sure enough I have a text from Howe
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: saying that, like we had a lot of laughs on
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: the Long family text chain. You look like my long
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: lost younger brother. Great job, great job. And I was like,
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: that's real, that's really cool, that so amazing. Will you
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: guys always go all out for Good Morning Football? I
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: chose to wear a bald cap for the very first
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: time in my life. Sunday morning, I was in the
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: makeup chair at about four thirty in the morning. They
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: needed it was literally down to the wire, Kaby. They
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: were like, but Nedda has to get miked up. She
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: has to get miked up. And they're still gluing the
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: beard to my face as Brian Dable, I'm like stuffing
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: things in my shirt. I'm like trying to like put
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: on these like air monarchs, which are a very peat
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: Carrell shoe. That was the one complaint that I got yesterday.
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: They were like, you did Dable dirty with the shoes.
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: I just want some Toordans, that is, you know what?
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: And I apologize for that. I wore the monarchs. They
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: were bad, but oh my gosh. It was just like
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: a sprint to get out there. And then finally I
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: put on the headset. I became Brian Dable. It was
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: one of my favorite Halloween costumes that I've done so far.
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: What do you what did you think? What were your thoughts? All? Right, well,
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: my thoughts are. This morning, after we do our three
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: hour show, the network network puts out a poll of like, hey,
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: who won the Good Morning Football Halloween thing? Kyler, Peter,
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: Jason or Jamie and the first reply is just some
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: fan and it's a picture of you as Brian Davie
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: being like hi, and we're like, Jamie was incredible. We
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: ran it on the show today because we had talked
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: a week ago and you said it's like the biggest
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: I've ever done, and I was like, you know what
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: I thought? I was like, is this maniac gonna be
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: like Roger Goodell? And I'm like, that's high stakes poker
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: right there. But instead you went with Dabele and just
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: smashed a five hundred foot home run out of the park,
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: baldcap Beard. Everything you asked me, I will ask you.
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: It was not a great day for Brian Dable, But
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: did you hear from him about your custom? So there
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: was Emmanuel Sanders was just like, I need to text
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: him right now. We were at he he made He
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: wasn't one hundred percent sure it was me, so he
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: so he I guess He sent a picture to Dable
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: and then David was just like, who the hell is that?
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: And then Emmanuel comes up and he goes, this is
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: Rachel right like we had already met, we had talked.
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: He knows who I am but he wanted to confirm
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: because I was so not looking like myself. He's like,
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: I just want to make sure that it is you
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: before I tell amazing table. So I think he approved.
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: He was also texting Cynthia Freeland. He said, I think
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: he got to get laugh out of it, but it was.
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: It was very fun. I think the higher stakes poker
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: would have been. I thought about this and I don't
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: want to totally go on take it to the curb.
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: I thought about being Rich for a good a good minute.
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: And I think Rich thought that I was being him
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: because I wore a Jets jersey. I wore a Jet
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: sweater to get ready yesterday and he walked in and
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: he was like, what are you doing? And I was
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: just like, oh, it's not what you're doing, all right?
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: That could be. It's funny because when you do Halloween,
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: and even if you crush it, people like you and
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: me who commit and like to show out in days
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: like this, there's always that like November first is for
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: what are you going to be next year? What's what's
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: next year's idea? How do you talk about how do
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: you beat it? So you might already have your answer. Banetta,
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: I might I just gotta be really nice to Rich
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: for Rich Eisen for like the next years, so that
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: I can do no wrong by the time October thirty
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: first rolls around. Okay, real quick, Kabe. I know you
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: probably have so many tricker treatings outings to do today
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: with your two little ones. But there's this thing that's
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: going viral on TikTok and you're basically building your ultimate
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: night out. Okay, So I wanted to build the ultimate
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: night out for NFL players coaches. So I'm going to
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: go through my list and you tell me if you
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: think that this is a good night out and if
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: you have any additions or changes. Okay, Yeah, Number one?
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: Who is my right hand man? Who is like my wingman?
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: I'm rolling up to the club with this guy. We
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: are going all out on Halloween. Maybe we even have
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: matching costumes, either one, but hopefully both of the Kelsey's.
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: I want Travis, I want Jason. They are I think
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: the most fun pair. We saw Jason yesterday on Sunday
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: wearing the Batman mask. We saw his brother Travis in
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: the stands watching the Eagles game. What do you think
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: about that? Do you think those would be two solid
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: wing men for the night. I can't really beat it. Also,
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: if you feel like with wheels coming off and going
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: to like a karaoke deal. Jason has a Christmas album
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: coming out, and he like has a great singing voice,
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: so he's into that. They're slainly pick up the checks.
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: They'll they'll be all kinds of food and drinks and everything.
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: Tough to beat the Kelsey's. I would certainly take them over,
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: even you know, the Watts or the Mannings. I think
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: that Kelsey's are really like the People's Brothers right now,
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: with due respects to them accordies. I guess I was
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: probably watched what I say, but I would go to
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: the key. The People's Brothers could be um like a
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: WWE tag team, yeah sling which, like you know, post
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: post football. I don't know, there's something there, Okay, who
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: is the dad of the group, Like, who's kind of
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: like over in the corner making sure everyone's okay. I'm
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: going Kirk Cousins, I don't know. Besides, like an NFL coach,
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: who else could be a more fatherly figure than Kirk Cousins?
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: Right that that seems pretty funny. I mean, Cousins is
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: gonna just be setting up shop, draining those bottomless root
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: beers at TGI Fridays, and he's ready to drive you.
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: He's gonna drive safe. He's going to be ten and two.
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: He could I mean, I could throw out Daniel Jones
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: maybe for even less personality and more safety. But Cousins
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: is like a first ballot or guy okay, who's going
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: all out on their Halloween costume. I kind of went,
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: this is not going to be what you expect. I'm
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: going Bill Belichick because if you remember, I can't remember
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: who it was that invited him to like the role
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: Moss stating thank you Randy Moss, and he showed up
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: full pirate costume. His girlfriend, Lynda, I believe, was also
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: in like a like a pirate kind of wencho. He
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: went all out, and I think that he could do
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: it again. I'm going Bill Belichick. It's one of the
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: great pieces of NFL films tape is him showing up
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: on roller skates with a cutlass and a patch. He's
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: probably got a bleeping parrot. But Randy's like, I just
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: want to ask you. You You want to ask you, coach,
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: like can you come? You know what Bell's like what's
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: not to love about Halloween? It's kids and candy and
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: he just goes all in. So I think it's a
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: great one. Absolutely, Okay, who are we running into the
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: club that it's like, Oh, I don't really want to
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: see this person. I'm going Russell Wilson. I think things
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: could thinks? Do you get heated? I don't want to
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: know what he's doing in the club. He's probably in
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: the corner stretching, doing some like sun salutations. I don't
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: want to know, and I don't want to see it.
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: I'm going Russell Wilson. I feel like you're encounter with
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: Russell Wilson. This would be for me, not for you.
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: It would be like also like in the bathroom too,
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: where it's like quiet and you can talk, and it's
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: even more awkward because you don't want to touch each other. Um,
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: I certainly don't want that. I'll get you another one,
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: you know. I just really don't want to run into
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: It would be a big buzz kill. And it's a
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: guy I really like. I don't want to run into
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: Dan Campbell right now. It's just it's it's so much
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: and I feel like he'd be like, bro, here's the thing. Man,
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: We just we have so much hard but and I'm like, Dan,
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: I love you, man. I wish it wouldn't have gone
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: that way. I know that's like, oh my god. I
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: just can't want to talk about him later in the show.
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: They can't. They can't, they don't know how to. I
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: don't want Dan to go, though. I don't want him
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: to get fired because he's one of my he's my face.
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: We're coach in the NFL. Okay, last but not least.
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: Who is our designated driver? Who is getting us home
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: safe and sound? But besides Kirk Cousins, I guess we
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: don't really need one. I'm going my guy, Pete Carroll.
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: I think he takes us home. We got a little
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: nice a Werther's original on the pillow laid out for us.
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: He tucks us and he gives us a little kiss
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: on the forehead. And that's the night. I'm going. Pete Carroll.
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: He gets us home safe. He definitely does. And he
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: talks a lot too, and there's a lot of chatter
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: and but and yet I'm gonna I'm gonna zag here,
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: and I want to get me home safe. I want
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: the most electric human being in sports entertainment. I want
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: Brian Dable as played by Rachel Bonetta, and we're home.
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: That's it. It's a home run. I want that. That's
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: my guy, slash my girl, just blast and tunes the
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: whole way through. Kabie, you are a maniac. I love

  Speaker 1: Packers unless there's a miracle and the Packers pull it
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: together in the next few weeks. Easy win for the Eagles,
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: Titans easy sorry, Giants, Giants, Bears, Cowboys, Saints and then
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: Giants again. Okay, those are all very winnable games. I
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: think for the Eagles. I think the Eagles will be
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: favored in every game for the rest of the season
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: unless they hit like a weird rough badger Jalen Hurts
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: gets hurt or something bad. But it is the NFL
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: Cowboys twice, like one of those games the Cowboys. Oh,
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: they already played the Cowboys Onesboys, Giants twice. Right, Giants
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: are a scrappy team that are well coached. They may
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: not have as much talent as the Eagles, but that
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: is like I do think the Titans, the Giants, and
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: the Cowboys, and even the Saints. I mean, the Saints
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: defense was amazing against the Raiders this past weekend. Their
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: offense is coming together. Yes, so I don't think the
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: Eagles will go undefeated, but I don't think it's because
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: any of these teams are better than them. It's just
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: because it's the NFL. They're gonna have one week where
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: like they commit to many penalties and like they a
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: ball bounces into somebody else's hands and like a ball
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: gets deflected, and like weird stuff happens and they just
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: lose because of that. But I do think sixteen and
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: one or something like that. Next time Cynthia Freeland is
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: on our podcast, we got to ask her how the
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: odds have changed as the season goes on, because I remember,
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: like the first few games, the Eagles had a couple
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: games under their belt, a couple of wins, and the
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: percentage was still very very small. But as we're we're
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: are we going? Are we coming into week nine? We
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: are No. This is the first game of week nine. Gross.
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: How sad is that we're going into week nine? So
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: I'm sure that percentage has changed quite a bit, and
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: I'm curious to see what it's at now. But in
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: terms of this game, Eagles are favored by thirteen. They
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: are five and two against the spread so far this
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: season that this is just like it's a team that's
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: ready for primetime. I know the Eagles have historically done
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: pretty well in primetime. The Texans absolute lutely have not.
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: I just feel like up on a stage, a big show.
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: Eagles are tap dancing their way into the bright lights
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: of Hollywood, and the Texans are like behind the curtain,
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: being like, I don't want to go out there. I'm
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: going to throw up or pee my pants. The Texans
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: are like, hey, we're close to the first overall pick.
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: We just gotta keep losing, and he got to hang
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: in there. The Eagles, I mean, the Eagles were preparing
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: for this game on Sunday. They sat Jalen Hurts for
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: almost the entire fourth quarter because they know it's a
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: short week. The Texans meanwhile, I don't know if you
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: caught the Titans Texans game. The Titans through ten passes,
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: including just one in the second half. They rushed for
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: three hundred and fourteen yards as a team, which is
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: the most any team has run for this season. The
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: Texans are allowing the most rushing yards of any team
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: this season. Obviously boosted now by that game too, but
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: that is like a physical game that they just had
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: to play on Sunday. Now they have a short turnaround
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: against a really good team that can also run the ball.
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: Even if their quarterback is their best runner, Hurts can
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: scoot around too. I would love to see some rushing
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: touchdowns from him. I think we're gonna see multiple. And
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: this is the kind of game where Jalen Hursts didn't
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: play in the fourth quarter on Sunday, he might have
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: playing the fourth quarter again this Thursday night. I mean,
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: do you really need to play in any of the quarters?
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: You threw three touchdowns before halftime on Sunday, like you're
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: you're good to chill, so that a snack. I'm definitely
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: picking the Eagles. Are you picking the Eagles? I'm absolutely
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: picking the Eagles to cover the thirteen as well. Yeah, okay,
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: coming up next, we're going to talk about the best
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: things in the worst things that I saw all weekend.
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: I'm just warning you, Graver, there are some we're gonna
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: talk about some serious things in this one, some serious
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: upsetting things. Don't go anywhere's the best, guys, So many
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: fun things from week One of the best things that
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: I saw is just Christian McCaffrey balling out. He had
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: a rushing touchdown, he caught a touchdown, he threw a touchdown.
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: The man is absolutely alleged to kick things up, and
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: I gotta say the forty nine ers are super fun.
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: You know who else is super fun? The Seahawks. Right now,
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: I was about two seconds away from buying a Geno
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: Smith jersey yesterday. I'm still thinking about it. I'm going
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: to Germany. I'm gonna see the box, I'm gonna see
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: the Seahawks, and might I might be solidifying myself as
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: a full time Geno Smith stan when I'm in Germany.
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: I love Pete Carroll getting a flag for celebrating yesterday
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: and apparently the RAF said what did he say, Gregory?
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: He called them the Seattle Mariners, like he was totally
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: in the wrong sport. Yeah, that was a really weird
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: moment where Jerome Boger went to make the call and
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: he just said the flag was on the Seattle Mariners.
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: Broadcasters are like, he just said Mariners. Uh, but yes,
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: it was on Pete Carroll. Ah, He's so fun, just
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: chewing his gum on the sideline all the time, just
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: chewing his gum, throwing his little flip phones when he
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: gets mad. Okay, so those are the best things that
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: I saw, and I got to get to the worst thing.
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: I saw. This is actually really really bumming me out.
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: First things First, we saw a fan getting a haircut
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: during a Lions game yesterday, Like, just a disrespectful b
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: How did you get clippers in? I get my beg
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: checked every single little pocket every single time. Sometimes I
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: have to bring clear bags into stadiums. I can't even
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: have my regular bags. Man brought clippers in. I don't
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: know how that happened. It's gross, guy, it's gross. Yeah hawe.
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: And then like a little hair flies into it and
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, there's a guy getting his haircut. Um,
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: it's disrespectful. Okay, cheer on your team, the Lions. They
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: are not doing well. We have been very vocal about
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: being Lions lovers on this pod. They have had so
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: many close games. I can't imagine what is like to
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: be a Lions fan right now. There they only had
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: like one blowout, one really bad game against the Patriots
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: a couple of weeks ago, but then they went on
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: their by and they've had two two very close games
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: against the Cowboys and then yesterday's game again, and now
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: there are some vocal fans that have come out calling
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: for the firing of our favorite coach in the NFL,
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: and that is by far the worst thing that I
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: have heard all week. I get it that there needs
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: to be changes. Dan Campbell fired his defensive backs coach today,
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: Aubrey Pleasant. They are trying to close that gap and
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: win these very winnable, close games. But I just think
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: that he and maybe this is just me being sensitive
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: and emotional, but like, do you remember last season when
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: the Lions won their first game and it came later
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: in the season. The Lions were so bad, Everyone's like, oh,
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: they're getting in the first round pick next year. They
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: were so bad. They won their first game and they
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: gave the game ball to Dan Campbell. I will never
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: forget that. He is an emotional guy. We saw them
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: on hard knocks. He's like working out with them. He
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: is in the trenches with these guys. He is loved
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: by this team. And I understand that they can't close
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: the gap and they can't win these games and they're
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: just having all of these close losses and it's painful
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: to watch. But I just feel like he can get
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: it done next year. Okay, I'm already looking towards next
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: year for the Lions, not this year. This year's things
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: have already gone. It's bad. But next year, I feel
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: like he can pick up a couple more weapons, straighten
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: out that defense, get his coaches right, and things could change.
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: But don't give up on him. No, get so get
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: another high draft pick, add some more blue chip talent,
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: and the Lions owner Sheila Ford hamp said earlier, you know,
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: before this latest loss to the Dolphins, But last week
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: she said she still feels that coach Dan Campbell and
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: general manager Brad Holmes are the right people to lead
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: the rebuild, so they still have the faith from the ownership.
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: Fans might be getting frustrated, but it's not always a
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: quick process to turn around. Sometimes it is for some teams,
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: but the Lions have such a history of not being
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: good that sometimes it takes a little bit longer. Well,
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: that's what I was going to say. If I was
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: a Lions fan, I would I mean, obviously it'd be
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: disappointed that all of these games are losses, But like
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: you're in the mix. You're keeping up with the Dolphins,
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: you are keeping up with the Cowboys, you are keeping
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: up with these other teams that are like decently good.
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: Who else? I mean, the Patriots game was bad, Yes,
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: we're crossing that off the list. Vikings was a close game.
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: They beat the Commanders, the game one of the season.
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: They were three points shy of tying it up with
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: the Eagles. Eagles thirty eight, Lions thirty five. If I
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: were a Lions fan, I'd be so so stoked that
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: my team was actually in games this season. They because
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: they weren't right. They put forty five on the Seahawks,
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: who the last three weeks, the Seahawks have allowed nine points,
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: twenty three points, and thirteen. It's come alive, but they
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: the Lions drop forty five on them. So like there
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: are some positive things you can take from Lions fans,
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: there are so many positives this season as a whole.
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: I know it sucks to keep on losing, but Dan
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: Campbell is your guy. I don't want to lose him
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: as an NFL head coach. Just being able to watch
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: him and listening listen to his weird postgame press conferences.
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: I don't want to lose him. I don't want to
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: lose that in my life, So please don't let it happen.
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: I love the Lions. That is by far the worst
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: thing that I've seen this Monday morning, guys. That is
• 23:32
