- 3:31Speaker 1: ones are gonna drop. But so you guys know we're
- 3:34Speaker 1: not podcasting throughout the year, especially the boy Taylor. It's
- 3:39Speaker 1: just it needs to be known that we're not fucking
- 3:41Speaker 1: podcasting in the year, because you know, you drop a game,
- 3:44Speaker 1: you lose a game, people want to find ways to
- 3:45Speaker 1: come after you.
- 3:46Speaker 2: Hey, why don't you stop worrying about the podcast? YadA, YadA, YadA.
- 3:50Speaker 1: You know, you gotta let it be known that we're

- 4:12Speaker 1: stoked about it. We're already We're already planning to make
- 4:14Speaker 1: a freaking Clowny. Sure, dudeie, we gotta we gotta embrace
- 4:17Speaker 1: Clowney being the whole clown thing that everybody the inside
- 4:20Speaker 1: joke on on. We gotta make a nice spooky shirt
- 4:22Speaker 1: for Clowney. So we got that in the works. But
- 4:25Speaker 1: other than that, we we're gonna get wrong with this episode.
- 4:27Speaker 1: Before we get wrong with this episode, we gotta shout
- 4:30Speaker 1: out the boys from Whoop.
- 4:32Speaker 2: You might be wondering what Woop is.
- 4:33Speaker 1: Woop is a fitness tracker that provides personalized insights on
- 4:37Speaker 1: the performance of your sleep, how recovered your body is,
- 4:39Speaker 1: and how much stress you put on your body throughout
- 4:41Speaker 1: the day from your workouts and normal.
- 4:43Speaker 2: Stressors of life.
- 4:44Speaker 1: To me, if you're an athlete or you know of
- 4:46Speaker 1: an athlete, it's a no brainer that every athlete and
- 4:49Speaker 1: fitness junk he needs to be strapped up with a whoop.
- 4:51Speaker 1: I have my woop on twenty four to seven. I
- 4:53Speaker 1: tape over it during practice so I can keep my
- 4:55Speaker 1: whoop strap on. That way, when I get inside, I
- 4:57Speaker 1: can collect the data on how much strain UP put
- 5:00Speaker 1: on my body a practice to then tell me how
- 5:02Speaker 1: much I need.
- 5:02Speaker 2: To be working out.
- 5:03Speaker 1: Because you don't want to overtrain, and then it also
- 5:06Speaker 1: tells me how I can set up for the best
- 5:08Speaker 1: sleep each night to get recovered for the next day.
- 5:12Speaker 1: It gives you dead on sleep, your HRV, which is
- 5:16Speaker 1: your heart rate variability, you're resting heart rate, your respiratory rate,
- 5:21Speaker 1: how much you're in rim deep light sleep, how much
- 5:23Speaker 1: you're awake, how many disturbances you add, all of it,
- 5:26Speaker 1: and then it gives you a recovery score the next
- 5:28Speaker 1: day on how well you are recovered and if you
- 5:30Speaker 1: should work out the next day, how much strain you
- 5:32Speaker 1: should put on yourself the next day.
- 5:34Speaker 2: All of it. Dude, it's fucking awesome.
- 5:36Speaker 1: You might be sitting in there camp if I'm not
- 5:37Speaker 1: an athlete or fitness junkie, could I what could I
- 5:40Speaker 1: get out of a whoop?
- 5:41Speaker 2: You can get a shipload out of it. Here's why
- 5:45Speaker 2: you can journal.
- 5:46Speaker 1: So you give the whoop, You give the app feedback
- 5:49Speaker 1: on stressors, if you're taking if you've been stressed out
- 5:52Speaker 1: throughout you know your day, if you're sharing your bed,
- 5:55Speaker 1: whether you feel a sense of purpose, how you how's
- 5:57Speaker 1: your quality of life been? Did you have caffeine? Are
- 6:00Speaker 1: you looking at screens? Like all this stuff that you
- 6:02Speaker 1: can put in and it runs it through this you
- 6:04Speaker 1: know their system. This algorithm is community and it gives
- 6:08Speaker 1: you feedback on how you need to be approaching your
- 6:10Speaker 1: next day. So if you don't feel like you're getting
- 6:11Speaker 1: a lot of sleep, you're probably let probably not in
- 6:14Speaker 1: the Woop can tell you why, and the Whoop will
- 6:16Speaker 1: also tell you how to improve because again it is
- 6:18Speaker 1: a big community to where Woop is always sending articles
- 6:22Speaker 1: and they just they make you feel part of something.
- 6:24Speaker 1: So even if you're not an athlete, I'm a huge
- 6:27Speaker 1: believer in the Whoop strap and how it can help
- 6:29Speaker 1: your quality of life, your day to day routine, how
- 6:32Speaker 1: you can set yourself up in a better day to
- 6:34Speaker 1: day routine, all from data that you're getting. There's no
- 6:37Speaker 1: you know, it's not a watch or anything like that.
- 6:39Speaker 1: It's literally tracking all the best, all the best data
- 6:44Speaker 1: in your performance. For our listeners, we get fifteen percent off.
- 6:46Speaker 1: Use code busting a checkout. Go to Whoop dot com,
- 6:50Speaker 1: woop dot com and enter busting a checkout to say
- 6:53Speaker 1: fifteen percent sleep better, recover faster, train smarter, and go
- 6:58Speaker 1: throughout your day better and optimize yourself. Off with Whoop
- 7:01Speaker 1: with the Boys, all of it. Drop the fucking hook, Blossie.
- 7:09Speaker 3: This episode of Busting with the Boys The Boys is
- 7:12Speaker 3: presented by Barstool Sports.
- 7:22Speaker 4: Already ten minutes behind, let's go, Kyle, Yes, Kyle, Hey, Kyle.
- 7:29Speaker 5: Yeah, and you're already having a good time chat about
- 7:32Speaker 5: Nashville and quarantine and Taylor putting this kid down for
- 7:36Speaker 5: a nap, which you know exactly what that's like at
- 7:38Speaker 5: one pm.
- 7:39Speaker 6: Uh, I'll tell you what we made.
- 7:42Speaker 4: We made leaps and bounds today, Kyle. I was putting
- 7:45Speaker 4: my daughter down and she's been going through a little bit.
- 7:47Speaker 4: I don't know how hold of your kids?
- 7:49Speaker 5: Three three and one?
- 7:50Speaker 6: Three three are your twins?
- 7:52Speaker 5: Yeah? Girls that are three?
- 7:54Speaker 4: And then I'll tell you I dated twins when I
- 7:58Speaker 4: first got here to Nashville, and.
- 8:01Speaker 6: Scary stuff.
- 8:02Speaker 5: Scary stuff them, both of them.
- 8:05Speaker 4: One one was more serious than the other for sure,
- 8:07Speaker 4: But it was kind of a weird gig for a second.
- 8:09Speaker 6: Man, it was weird. But twins is crazy. I didn't
- 8:12Speaker 6: mean for the kind of turn. I apologize. Actually feel
- 8:14Speaker 6: awful for even saying that.
- 8:16Speaker 5: No, not at all. It is crazy though, Like you
- 8:19Speaker 5: know people all the time that have kids, they're like, oh,
- 8:22Speaker 5: you know, three, you know, two, you got to entertain
- 8:24Speaker 5: them all day long, blah blah blah, and twins like,
- 8:27Speaker 5: it's like, send them on their way as long as
- 8:29Speaker 5: you don't hear one of them screaming or yelling or crying.
- 8:32Speaker 5: Like you know, they're hanging out, having a good time,
- 8:34Speaker 5: entertaining one another. And I have to chase my one
- 8:37Speaker 5: year old around all day because he's a monster. But
- 8:39Speaker 5: the girls they just hang out.
- 8:41Speaker 6: That's crazy, dude.
- 8:43Speaker 4: Were you like, did could you imagine yourself in high school?
- 8:46Speaker 4: Like looking at yourself now and being like, yeah, man,
- 8:48Speaker 4: I'm I'm gonna have three kids.
- 8:50Speaker 6: I have twin girls?
- 8:52Speaker 5: No, and well, and there's no twins like anywhere in
- 8:54Speaker 5: my family or my wife's family. So really it was
- 8:57Speaker 5: like we were at our first ultrasound and the ultrasound
- 9:01Speaker 5: tech was like, oh, you guys got twins in your family?
- 9:05Speaker 6: No, what was that?
- 9:06Speaker 2: Like?
- 9:06Speaker 4: What was that like when you were sitting there where
- 9:07Speaker 4: you're like, oh my god, dude, like this is about
- 9:09Speaker 4: to be a bit of a deal now.
- 9:11Speaker 5: Yeah, it was. It was crazy because you know, we
- 9:14Speaker 5: we knew we wanted to have kids shortly after we
- 9:16Speaker 5: got married, and so you know, the fact that we
- 9:19Speaker 5: found out we were pregnant. Not a surprise, and it
- 9:23Speaker 5: was actually wow. We were out in LA in Hollywood.
- 9:25Speaker 5: I was training and she, my wife, was having a
- 9:30Speaker 5: complications and she was like, oh, you know, I probably
- 9:32Speaker 5: had a miscarriage. Like, let's go to the emergency room.
- 9:35Speaker 5: We went all over Hollywood trying to find an emergency
- 9:37Speaker 5: room and it was like four hour wait, six hour wait,
- 9:40Speaker 5: eight hour wait, and they were like, all right, it's
- 9:42Speaker 5: crew this. We drove to Orange County, which you know,
- 9:44Speaker 5: forty five miles and ended up taking three hours, so
- 9:47Speaker 5: we probably should have just stayed at the first emergency carener.
- 9:51Speaker 5: And then we got the ultrasound and they're like, oh, no,
- 9:53Speaker 5: heartbeat's good, everything's good. And the ultrasound tech looked at
- 9:57Speaker 5: us sideways and was like, you guys got twins in
- 9:59Speaker 5: your family. We were like, no, you do now, So
- 10:04Speaker 5: I like I literally remember sitting there like, oh my god,
- 10:07Speaker 5: please be sure, please, I'm pretty sure.
- 10:10Speaker 6: Yeah, no question, dude.
- 10:13Speaker 4: I wanted I wanted boys so bad, I really did.
- 10:16Speaker 6: And I was like kind of like on the fence
- 10:18Speaker 6: and myment you know, hey, if we have a boy
- 10:19Speaker 6: or girl, it's totally fine. In my head. I'm crossing
- 10:21Speaker 6: my fingers big time for a boy, like.
- 10:23Speaker 4: You need that out there playing a little catch with
- 10:26Speaker 4: the old kid.
- 10:27Speaker 6: Hey, listen, don't do drugs. Listen, those are bad.
- 10:29Speaker 4: Feel like that's the best parenting tool you have is
- 10:32Speaker 4: to sit there listen.
- 10:33Speaker 6: No means no, just what it is, my buddy, all right,
- 10:35Speaker 6: you know what I'm saying. We'll catch. And I found
- 10:37Speaker 6: out I was having a girl, and I started sweating.
- 10:39Speaker 2: My guy.
- 10:40Speaker 6: I was like, things are just different now.
- 10:41Speaker 4: But I think it was the best thing for me because, like,
- 10:43Speaker 4: I don't know about you, but it definitely slowed me down.
- 10:45Speaker 6: Maybe more patient, helped me understand a little bit more.
- 10:48Speaker 5: Oh no, I wouldn't trade having twin girls for the world.
- 10:51Speaker 5: And I remember, you know, fast forward ten weeks after
- 10:54Speaker 5: we found out we're having kids, and we found out
- 10:55Speaker 5: the gender, and you know, first one is a girl.
- 10:58Speaker 5: At the time, we didn't know they're ideas, so they
- 11:01Speaker 5: actually thought they were fraternal and I'm like, that's okay,
- 11:03Speaker 5: Like there's still one more, like maybe we can have
- 11:05Speaker 5: boy and girl and we can knock this thing out
- 11:08Speaker 5: one try. And they wouldn't tell us the second one,
- 11:12Speaker 5: she's the ultrasound tech was like, no, I can't see,
- 11:15Speaker 5: you know, and I can't guarantee that this is male
- 11:18Speaker 5: or female. So I just will wait till Yeah, we'll
- 11:20Speaker 5: wait till twenty weeks and and see at that ultrasound.
- 11:24Speaker 5: So in my head, I'm like holding out hope for
- 11:26Speaker 5: four more weeks, like, okay, there's there's still a chance.
- 11:29Speaker 5: We got we got a boy, one boy, one girl.
- 11:31Speaker 5: And at twenty weeks they're like nope, it's two girls.
- 11:34Speaker 5: Like no, and my wife's like, are you okay? Is
- 11:37Speaker 5: everything ore?
- 11:38Speaker 1: Two girls just out the gate, dude, three to one
- 11:40Speaker 1: in the house.
- 11:41Speaker 6: Your wife's your wife's pregnant with twins.
- 11:43Speaker 4: And she gently just puts her hand on your knee
- 11:45Speaker 4: and goes, hey, do you want to talk about it?
- 11:47Speaker 6: Are you gonna be okay?
- 11:48Speaker 5: Are you okay? Even like as we left left the
- 11:50Speaker 5: doctor's office, we're in the car, she's like, are you
- 11:53Speaker 5: sure you're okay? Like you seem a little upset. I'm like, no,
- 11:56Speaker 5: I'll be. I definitely wanted boys, but you know, we'll
- 11:58Speaker 5: figure it out, and.
- 12:00Speaker 7: Now'll figure it out.
- 12:01Speaker 5: If I would, you wouldn't trade it for the world.
- 12:03Speaker 7: Were you scared for twins again.
- 12:06Speaker 5: Yeah, so that that's what's like one of the crazy
- 12:08Speaker 5: things about having multiples first, like your percent chance of
- 12:12Speaker 5: having them again are extremely high. So, oh, got the single,
- 12:18Speaker 5: you know, with our son the second time. But you know,
- 12:21Speaker 5: my wife wants one more. I'm okay with one more.
- 12:24Speaker 5: I mean she does pretty much everything anyways. I'm just
- 12:26Speaker 5: here for support. But the chance of getting four and
- 12:31Speaker 5: five together is very real. So we will never go
- 12:35Speaker 5: for just five. Like, if we get four and it's
- 12:37Speaker 5: just four, that's it. I'm gonna get snipped and we'll
- 12:41Speaker 5: call it a day because I'm not going for five
- 12:44Speaker 5: and getting five and six together. Now you're out of
- 12:47Speaker 5: any standard vehicle and into the Mercedes Sprinter or the
- 12:52Speaker 5: fourteen passenger Ford Eco Boost or whatever that is. You know,
- 12:56Speaker 5: so you know we won't be going for number five,
- 12:58Speaker 5: that's for sure.
- 12:59Speaker 4: You start to get in that six range, that dirty
- 13:02Speaker 4: half doesn't look you're you're officially in that cheaper by
- 13:04Speaker 4: the dozen kind of feel.
- 13:06Speaker 6: You're waking up flopping pancakes.
- 13:08Speaker 4: Pancakes are flopping ass everywhere, dude, just trying to figure
- 13:11Speaker 4: out what the fuck is going on.
- 13:12Speaker 6: Man, It's terrifying. Shit circus but four kids is a lot, man.
- 13:16Speaker 6: I mean, if you do, you think, yeah.
- 13:19Speaker 5: There's no difference after you know, one to two is
- 13:21Speaker 5: the biggest adjustment. And we never made that adjustment because
- 13:24Speaker 5: we came right out of the gates with two. So
- 13:26Speaker 5: two to three, like my son, there were times you'd
- 13:29Speaker 5: be like, oh, where's Henry, Like oh, we forgot we
- 13:32Speaker 5: even had a third kid, because it's just one. Like
- 13:34Speaker 5: one is so easy once you've had two. So I
- 13:38Speaker 5: bet three to four is just adding, you know, field
- 13:40Speaker 5: to the fire. Was making the circus a little more crazy.
- 13:43Speaker 1: You might get, you might get, you might get twins, though,
- 13:46Speaker 1: knock on with I don't want to put that on you.
- 13:47Speaker 5: But we're we're okay with that because five four again,
- 13:50Speaker 5: you go four to five, We're good. We we can
- 13:52Speaker 5: fit in any regular car has seven seats, we're good.
- 13:56Speaker 5: We got the suv. You add that six and you
- 14:00Speaker 5: got eight people in your family. You're not fitting anywhere
- 14:03Speaker 5: like dinner reservations, cars like nothing is built for eight.
- 14:08Speaker 7: What two big contracts can pay for something?
- 14:10Speaker 6: Now, hey, I tell you to thirty pieces.
- 14:15Speaker 5: We're doing okay, but.
- 14:17Speaker 4: Says it says the crown molding in the background we're
- 14:19Speaker 4: doing okay, a Greek god's house, dude.
- 14:22Speaker 6: You like, who's Who's that Socrates's house? You're living right there, Dude.
- 14:26Speaker 5: I don't want all of our money to go to
- 14:28Speaker 5: college tuition. And that's for sure. I know who knows
- 14:31Speaker 5: what it's going to be like eighteen years from now.
- 14:34Speaker 4: I'm sure that extra kids, at least one is going
- 14:36Speaker 4: to get a scholarship, at least one.
- 14:39Speaker 7: You gotta get one, dude.
- 14:40Speaker 5: Yeah, we'll put that pressure on either scholarship or student loans,
- 14:44Speaker 5: like dad, student loans, Like are you kidding me?
- 14:46Speaker 6: Yeah, you gotta pay for you gotta work your ass.

- 15:53Speaker 4: kids on there, get down to work, mister piece himself.
- 16:00Speaker 4: When we saw you in Miami, we know you came
- 16:02Speaker 4: down to like a little citation X right there before.
- 16:05Speaker 7: You see his hair too, how sleek it was. Everything else.
- 16:09Speaker 4: There's there's a there's a picture of you they got
- 16:11Speaker 4: to find when you're playing Notre Dame. When I was
- 16:13Speaker 4: looking you up yesterday, look like you're an extra from
- 16:15Speaker 4: American History X.
- 16:17Speaker 6: You look like an absolute skinhead, dude.
- 16:21Speaker 5: Same. So spring game we had saintan Baldricks. One of
- 16:25Speaker 5: my roommates was like head of the deal. So we
- 16:27Speaker 5: would all shave our heads the week of the spring
- 16:30Speaker 5: game for the kids with cancer that had the bald heads,
- 16:34Speaker 5: and so we they shaved them with just like the
- 16:35Speaker 5: regular clippers. And then one of my buddies was like, dude,
- 16:40Speaker 5: you should totally bick your head like it's already all
- 16:42Speaker 5: the way down, like just go ahead clean it off
- 16:45Speaker 5: the rest of the way for the spring game. And
- 16:48Speaker 5: that's honestly the last time I shaved. I shaved my
- 16:51Speaker 5: face with the vic and also my head, and that's
- 16:54Speaker 5: the last time I shaved my face with a razor.
- 16:56Speaker 5: Like I just won't do it. I I whenever I
- 16:58Speaker 5: get my haircut, get my beard trim and carry on.
- 17:02Speaker 6: Yeah, that is what it is. I mean, it's a
- 17:03Speaker 6: nice thing you did for the kids, but also it's
- 17:06Speaker 6: you know that bicken. It ain't fun. It ain't fun.
- 17:10Speaker 4: Another place that wasn't very fun was I was watching
- 17:13Speaker 4: some videos of you. I think it was two thousand
- 17:16Speaker 4: and nine or ten, was like your last year because
- 17:19Speaker 4: you left as a junior.
- 17:20Speaker 5: Right, yes, yeah, twenty ten was my last season on Notre.
- 17:23Speaker 6: Dame YEP twenty ten. I remember that. I was a
- 17:26Speaker 6: redshirt sophomore.
- 17:27Speaker 4: We were playing you guys, and like three minutes left
- 17:30Speaker 4: in the game, the boy just catches a seam route
- 17:33Speaker 4: up the middle.
- 17:33Speaker 6: Thought you just put it away, didn't you. You thought
- 17:36Speaker 6: I'm a hero.
- 17:38Speaker 5: Literally, I remember going to the sideline tired of shit.
- 17:41Speaker 5: I mean, I've never run ninety five yards in my
- 17:44Speaker 5: life outside of maybe the one ten you run in
- 17:46Speaker 5: the summertime right and sit on the bench. It was like,
- 17:50Speaker 5: remember that game. It was just the weather was just awful.
- 17:53Speaker 5: It was like on and off rain, cloudy, and sure
- 17:56Speaker 5: enough we scored. I don't even know we went up
- 17:58Speaker 5: by lesson a touchdown because Dinard proceeded to march right
- 18:01Speaker 5: down the field and end the game with a touchdown.
- 18:03Speaker 5: But sun comes out. It was like, Oh, this is
- 18:07Speaker 5: gonna be awesome. We're gonna have a great time tonight.
- 18:10Speaker 5: Go to the bars. Well, like I said, Gard with
- 18:14Speaker 5: issues untied goes right out in the field and makes
- 18:16Speaker 5: everyone on our defense effect they were standing in dried
- 18:20Speaker 5: semen and it was that was it. So it was
- 18:24Speaker 5: a short lived. This is awesome because I just sat
- 18:28Speaker 5: there and watched him go right down the field and score.
- 18:31Speaker 4: Then was the most electric, one of the most electric
- 18:33Speaker 4: football players of all time, most underrated electric football player
- 18:36Speaker 4: of all time.
- 18:36Speaker 6: Does that make sense?
- 18:37Speaker 1: Oh there, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, no, that made sense,
- 18:42Speaker 1: And that actually reminds me. You guys did have some
- 18:44Speaker 1: banger little rivalries in that little era, like Notre Dame
- 18:48Speaker 1: versus basically Robinson basically.
- 18:51Speaker 5: The year before the year before, we lost on the
- 18:53Speaker 5: last drive of the game, too, Tate.
- 18:54Speaker 6: For That's what I'm saying, right Tate for the ultimate
- 18:58Speaker 6: funck up.
- 18:58Speaker 5: Yeah, I can tell you what.
- 19:00Speaker 6: I don't know what Date is doing anymore that he
- 19:06Speaker 6: said what he.
- 19:07Speaker 5: Said, lost on my last possession of that game too.

- 21:04Speaker 4: was at Michigan, we went like one in three versus everybody,
- 21:07Speaker 4: Like I was one and three versus Iowa one and
- 21:08Speaker 4: three versus Ohio State one and three, like one and
- 21:11Speaker 4: three versus everybody, Notre Dame. I think I lost one time,
- 21:16Speaker 4: and that was the year you guys went to the
- 21:17Speaker 4: National championship game.
- 21:18Speaker 6: You weren't there anymore.
- 21:19Speaker 5: But yeah, that's that's I feel like that's how I was.
- 21:22Speaker 5: I feel like I was one and two against everybody,
- 21:24Speaker 5: one and two against you guys, one and two against
- 21:26Speaker 5: weird Place, one and two, yeah, sorry, three and out.
- 21:33Speaker 7: I was three and done, dude.
- 21:34Speaker 5: Yeah, one and two against Stanford, one and two against
- 21:37Speaker 5: USC Like we literally were one and two against everybody
- 21:40Speaker 5: except for Purdue, but pretty much everybody's two and oh
- 21:43Speaker 5: three and oh whatever it is againstdue.
- 21:46Speaker 6: Notre Dame. Sorry will, I'm going to interrupt you, zoo,
- 21:49Speaker 6: it is what it is Zoom podcast.
- 21:52Speaker 1: This is for you guys. Who do you think is
- 21:54Speaker 1: the more story program on a Michigan and Notre Dame.
- 21:58Speaker 6: It's an easy answer.
- 21:59Speaker 5: Here's an easy So you guys were wins, don't you.
- 22:03Speaker 4: Well, yeah, no question, but the big house and don't
- 22:06Speaker 4: play crumble with me, Kyle, don't come on the staying
- 22:08Speaker 4: with your crown molding behind us and play neither.
- 22:11Speaker 5: Neither one of us have won a damn thing in
- 22:12Speaker 5: the last twenty years.
- 22:14Speaker 6: So yeah, we're both.
- 22:17Speaker 5: Yeah, we're hanging onto our nineteen eighty eight national championship
- 22:20Speaker 5: like that's the last time we wanted.
- 22:23Speaker 7: Who are you saying?
- 22:25Speaker 5: Oh, I'm saying that's for sure. But you know I
- 22:30Speaker 5: have my reason.
- 22:32Speaker 6: We'll go We'll go ahead. What's your reason. We'll give
- 22:34Speaker 6: me one reason.
- 22:37Speaker 5: Well, and I'm not even certain. I think we may
- 22:38Speaker 5: have passed you guys and wins. So we need to
- 22:40Speaker 5: be wrong, is it? I don't know.
- 22:44Speaker 6: I just want to say that.
- 22:46Speaker 7: You got Hey, you guys, go at it. I'll look
- 22:48Speaker 7: it up.
- 22:49Speaker 5: Yeah, you look it up. No, but I will say
- 22:53Speaker 5: one of my first college visits was Michigan. It was
- 22:56Speaker 5: actually the first rain delay in Michigan history might have
- 23:00Speaker 5: played a reason why I didn't go to Michigan. We
- 23:03Speaker 5: had to sit through a thirty minute rainde lay against
- 23:05Speaker 5: like Central Michigan or something. But I only played at
- 23:08Speaker 5: the Big House once. It was right after they put
- 23:11Speaker 5: the boxes on both sides, so when I went on
- 23:13Speaker 5: my visit in high school, there weren't for the skyboxes,
- 23:16Speaker 5: and then they were there. That place was rocking. Like
- 23:18Speaker 5: I said, we lost on the last possession, so it
- 23:20Speaker 5: was a great game. Another one where we scored late
- 23:23Speaker 5: in the game and then you all answered and ended
- 23:25Speaker 5: it right away. But I think we have more national
- 23:29Speaker 5: championships than you guys, so you know, I can I
- 23:31Speaker 5: can hang our hat on that one, even though most
- 23:33Speaker 5: of them were in like the forties and fifties and
- 23:35Speaker 5: right after World War Two.
- 23:37Speaker 6: But yeah, well the mission doesn't have a lot of
- 23:39Speaker 6: national shape.
- 23:40Speaker 4: I think we have eleven national championships and one came
- 23:42Speaker 4: after nineteen forty two, so it's.
- 23:44Speaker 6: A little tough. That's Michigan doing their best.
- 23:48Speaker 5: Are all right?
- 23:50Speaker 1: You got hey, and and this is because you guys
- 23:52Speaker 1: played against each other, Like if we're throwing, we get
- 23:54Speaker 1: throw Nebraskan here too.
- 23:55Speaker 7: But we won't do it. Games played forty four. What
- 24:00Speaker 7: are you gonna say, Kyle?
- 24:01Speaker 5: I was going to ask if you guys were even
- 24:02Speaker 5: in the top five in total wins.
- 24:04Speaker 4: No, no, uh no, no, we're close though, we're close.
- 24:08Speaker 7: We're up there with Natties.
- 24:10Speaker 1: Here we go wins our games played forty four, Michigan
- 24:14Speaker 1: leads twenty five to eighteen. Wow moost home wins Michigan fifteen.
- 24:19Speaker 1: Most road wins Michigan nine, neutral site wins. There's only
- 24:22Speaker 1: been one Michigan want to zero biggest, biggest blowout is
- 24:31Speaker 1: Michigan in recent years two thousand and three and two
- 24:34Speaker 1: thousand and seven, thirty eight.
- 24:36Speaker 5: I remember two thousand and seven, two thousand and seven,
- 24:40Speaker 5: nothing that one. I remember watching that one that was
- 24:42Speaker 5: my senior high school and it was I think their
- 24:45Speaker 5: name was like three and nine. That year Jimmy Claston
- 24:48Speaker 5: got sacked like fourteen times in the Big House and
- 24:52Speaker 5: John Sullivan was snapping the ball over his head. It
- 24:55Speaker 5: was bad. I remember watching that one. That was brutal.
- 24:57Speaker 6: Jimmy Classon was like the Truth at Notre Dame. He
- 25:00Speaker 6: was like the he was like the next coming of Jesus.
- 25:02Speaker 6: He was touchdown Jesus.
- 25:04Speaker 5: So my my sophomore year in nine on on offense,
- 25:09Speaker 5: we Golden Tate, Michael Floyd, running back super underrated, had
- 25:16Speaker 5: an unbelievable pro career in Detroit. Was Theo Riddick. THEO
- 25:19Speaker 5: was like super shifty, Armando Allen was a running back
- 25:23Speaker 5: that played in the league for a while, myself and
- 25:26Speaker 5: Tyler Eiffert at tight end. I mean, we had like
- 25:29Speaker 5: four dudes that were either a thousand yard receiver or
- 25:32Speaker 5: Pro bowler in the NFL, just on offense and we
- 25:35Speaker 5: went six and six.
- 25:37Speaker 6: That's wow. If that's not coaching, I don't know what is.
- 25:41Speaker 5: We couldn't stop a nosebleed. I mean, like you know,
- 25:44Speaker 5: like I said, we lost to you guys on the
- 25:46Speaker 5: last drive of the game after scoring to go up
- 25:49Speaker 5: with like a little over a minute left. If we
- 25:51Speaker 5: had the ball at the end of the game, you know,
- 25:54Speaker 5: it was we had a chance to win it. If
- 25:56Speaker 5: we didn't have the ball at the end of the game,
- 25:57Speaker 5: we usually had just scored, and it was either we
- 25:59Speaker 5: got to stop the six games we won, we got
- 26:01Speaker 5: to stop the six games we didn't. Obviously we know
- 26:04Speaker 5: how that ended.
- 26:05Speaker 4: You guys had some players on defense too. The US
- 26:07Speaker 4: had Harrison a little later after you. Mantitao was there him, And.
- 26:15Speaker 7: That's a good he that's a good little that's a
- 26:17Speaker 7: good lott.
- 26:17Speaker 1: What was your genuine reaction when you found about the
- 26:20Speaker 1: Manti tail thing? When that came to light his senior year?
- 26:22Speaker 5: So I was gone. I had been gone for a
- 26:25Speaker 5: couple of years, but uh, that was the national championship year,
- 26:30Speaker 5: which my class. A lot of my buddies were still
- 26:32Speaker 5: there as fifth year seniors, and I remember them kind
- 26:36Speaker 5: of throughout the course of the year, like that storyline started,
- 26:40Speaker 5: maybe even the Michigan game. I think you guys played
- 26:43Speaker 5: at Notre Dame that year and Manti's grandma, uh and
- 26:50Speaker 5: girlfriend passed away that week, and so obviously it was
- 26:55Speaker 5: just like gaining steam, gaining steam, And a lot of
- 26:58Speaker 5: the guys on the team that I were talking to
- 26:59Speaker 5: were like, this guy, like, it's not even he doesn't
- 27:03Speaker 5: even talk to her, Like this whole like girlfriend thing.
- 27:07Speaker 5: People keep making it a huge deal, and then you know,
- 27:10Speaker 5: once in media gets told of a storyline, it's kind
- 27:13Speaker 5: of hard to backtrack and be like, oh, well, I
- 27:15Speaker 5: really don't have a girlfriend, so we'll just ride it. Out,
- 27:19Speaker 5: never thinking that this girlfriend would come out to be
- 27:21Speaker 5: a guy that you talked to on the phone three times,
- 27:25Speaker 5: So you couldn't really backpedal at that point. But yeah,
- 27:28Speaker 5: so when when the story came out, I wasn't surprised
- 27:32Speaker 5: that it was kind of all fake, because there was
- 27:35Speaker 5: some you know, wishy washy feelings from some of my
- 27:39Speaker 5: buddies that were there when it was going on. But
- 27:42Speaker 5: to hear how the whole thing was was kind of
- 27:45Speaker 5: put together was pretty funny.
- 27:47Speaker 4: Dude, You're like a unanimous All American probably first round pick,
- 27:53Speaker 4: and what do you what do you not even facetiming?
- 27:56Speaker 6: You're not even you're even facetiming with the girl. You're
- 27:58Speaker 6: just regular dial up phone whispering runner.
- 28:04Speaker 5: Notre dame, runner up for the Heisman.
- 28:06Speaker 7: And you're like, you're like, it's kind of hard to backpedal.
- 28:09Speaker 2: But he didn't.
- 28:10Speaker 7: He didn't just not backpedal. He cried on national television.
- 28:17Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, Like, you know what I'm saying,
- 28:19Speaker 1: Like he fully bought into.
- 28:21Speaker 7: He needs to be somewhere in Hollywood.
- 28:23Speaker 5: That's exactly what I said. He bought in, And once
- 28:26Speaker 5: he bought in, he rode that way, Like you said,
- 28:28Speaker 5: he went all the way. I mean I had to imagine,
- 28:32Speaker 5: like never would he. They told me that he was
- 28:34Speaker 5: at the college Football Awards, you know, the Home Depot
- 28:38Speaker 5: Awards or whatever that they do in Orlando, I think,
- 28:41Speaker 5: and just racking up the awards. He had an unbelievable season,
- 28:46Speaker 5: and his phone rang from like the number that he
- 28:49Speaker 5: associated with his girlfriend that apparently passed away, and it
- 28:54Speaker 5: was like, oh shit, that's when it all started to
- 28:58Speaker 5: fall apart.
- 28:59Speaker 6: Oh my god.
- 29:00Speaker 4: He sure like he had like the tire Woods effect
- 29:03Speaker 4: because he was killing it. He was going to be
- 29:06Speaker 4: a first round jetick, like unanimous first round jepick. There
- 29:08Speaker 4: wasn't even an argument there. All this stuff comes out
- 29:11Speaker 4: still a second round pick, right, But career never got going.
- 29:17Speaker 4: I think that I honestly believe man Taitayo was crushed
- 29:20Speaker 4: by this fick woman.
- 29:21Speaker 6: Like his his confidence was killed who like who he was?
- 29:24Speaker 4: His identity as a person was just totally taking and
- 29:26Speaker 4: thrown out the window and never really recovered from it.
- 29:29Speaker 5: No, I mean, you you hit the nail on the head,
- 29:31Speaker 5: like the whole Tiger Woods thing.
- 29:33Speaker 2: You know.
- 29:33Speaker 5: Just think about like how much of sports are just
- 29:36Speaker 5: like that confidence that you have and going out there
- 29:39Speaker 5: and when you're a runner up for the Heisman and
- 29:41Speaker 5: you lead the entire country and picks as a Mike linebacker.
- 29:46Speaker 5: I mean, like you're just going into the game every
- 29:49Speaker 5: week like I'm a baller, like let's do this laughing.
- 29:52Speaker 5: And then when something, yeah, something like that happens, you
- 29:55Speaker 5: gotta be just shook.
- 29:57Speaker 6: The everything's over, everything's over.
- 30:00Speaker 4: At that point that like I don't know, that thing
- 30:03Speaker 4: blows me away because I like I've like weirdly been
- 30:05Speaker 4: with Manti Tail, like my like my career, like barely
- 30:08Speaker 4: been around him. Like we play in the All American
- 30:09Speaker 4: Game together and it was like him and Matt Barkley
- 30:12Speaker 4: both wore number five, both were our captains, and he
- 30:14Speaker 4: was like the dude, right, and then the dude's been
- 30:17Speaker 4: the dude since like before Marcus Mariota, like Manti Tail
- 30:21Speaker 4: was like Hawaiians, like a Hawaii's mascot, Like there, you
- 30:24Speaker 4: couldn't gowhere, That's truly.
- 30:26Speaker 6: He couldn't live.
- 30:27Speaker 4: And then Marcus came and I mean, Marcus can't even
- 30:30Speaker 4: take a commercial flight to Hawaii, don't think without getting bombarded.
- 30:33Speaker 5: You know.
- 30:33Speaker 6: It's it's it's wild.
- 30:36Speaker 1: This episode of Butting with the Voices brought to you
- 30:39Speaker 1: by Cuts Clothing.

- 33:02Speaker 6: what's the deal? Question?
- 33:03Speaker 5: Real good question.
- 33:05Speaker 6: Did you Did you slay in high school?
- 33:10Speaker 5: Like? I mean, I had an okay high school career.
- 33:13Speaker 5: I you know, I played in the Army All American Game.
- 33:17Speaker 6: No, no, I don't care about football. I'm talking about you.
- 33:21Speaker 6: And like you and girls tight end probably a five star.
- 33:24Speaker 6: You weren't slaying like that. Oh that's okay.
- 33:28Speaker 4: Then I know why you went to Notre Dame. They
- 33:30Speaker 4: had all the rules, right, you can't go in the
- 33:32Speaker 4: dorms or nothing like that.
- 33:33Speaker 5: I tell people all the time, Like, you know, Notre
- 33:36Speaker 5: Dame was a great place for me. Uh you know,
- 33:39Speaker 5: Catholic kid from the West side of Cincinnati, it was.
- 33:42Speaker 5: It was. I never grew up a Nerdame fan though,
- 33:44Speaker 5: Like I literally remember my first my first visit at
- 33:47Speaker 5: not Dame. I was like, oh, yeah, we'll check it out.
- 33:50Speaker 5: You know. I'd been to Ohio State, Michigan, some of
- 33:53Speaker 5: the other big ten schools that were all within four
- 33:56Speaker 5: hours of home, and the biggest thing for me was
- 33:58Speaker 5: going to pay for coach hy who had been in
- 34:01Speaker 5: the NFL new tight ends, because our position is one
- 34:04Speaker 5: like no matter where you go. As I left tackle,
- 34:08Speaker 5: like you know, there really isn't much that affects you
- 34:12Speaker 5: blocking the guy across from you. Same thing on defense,
- 34:15Speaker 5: like as an as a as a linebacker, you know outside,
- 34:19Speaker 5: Yeah you can be three four four three like that
- 34:21Speaker 5: can play into it, but like as an inside backer,
- 34:24Speaker 5: like you need to go make tackles. I didn't want
- 34:27Speaker 5: to go somewhere where they're you know, the whole recruiting process.
- 34:31Speaker 5: Oh yeah, we'll throw the ball, well through the ball,
- 34:32Speaker 5: we'll three the ball. Hey guess what, We're going to
- 34:35Speaker 5: put forty pounds on you and now you're going to
- 34:37Speaker 5: block all the time. And you know, to me, that's
- 34:39Speaker 5: kind of how how high State was. You know, I
- 34:43Speaker 5: loved going to Ohio State. Love. I went to the
- 34:45Speaker 5: Ohio State Michigan game one versus two, you know, unbelievable environment.
- 34:50Speaker 5: But I looked at every one of their tight ends
- 34:52Speaker 5: and they were all basically what I am now, two
- 34:54Speaker 5: hundred and sixty five pound blockers. But I didn't want
- 34:57Speaker 5: to quite choose that life as a eighteen year old
- 35:00Speaker 5: when I still had the choice, so I knew coach
- 35:03Speaker 5: Weis went to throw the rock around and use a
- 35:05Speaker 5: bunch of tight ends. Actually Michigan and not just to
- 35:08Speaker 5: talk up Michigan. Michigan was probably I would have gone
- 35:13Speaker 5: to Michigan way before I went to Ohio State. But
- 35:14Speaker 5: it was the coach car era and you know, Mike
- 35:17Speaker 5: the board was the O c who was the tight
- 35:19Speaker 5: end coach, and you know, they had three tight ends
- 35:21Speaker 5: on the field most of the game. And I was like,
- 35:24Speaker 5: I want to play right away, so this will be
- 35:26Speaker 5: a sweet spot. And then you know Coach Carr was
- 35:28Speaker 5: getting ready to retire, and you know that's that was
- 35:31Speaker 5: what took it off. Took Michigan off the table for me.
- 35:33Speaker 6: Well, yeah, then God didn't go to Michigan because if
- 35:35Speaker 6: you went there.
- 35:36Speaker 5: Three, I think I would have had three. I think
- 35:39Speaker 5: I would have had three. I would have had Coach
- 35:41Speaker 5: car won rich Rod one. And who was the last
- 35:45Speaker 5: one that came in after Pretty Hope, Pretty Hope?
- 35:47Speaker 2: Yeah, Yeah, yeah.
- 35:50Speaker 4: Rich Rod never used tight ends. He like, no, like
- 35:53Speaker 4: he was eleven personnel. I mean, there's a tight end there,
- 35:55Speaker 4: but the guy was it was not.
- 35:57Speaker 6: It wasn't like that.
- 35:58Speaker 4: Kevin Koger. He was our tight end. He was a
- 35:59Speaker 4: good type and I think he did a really good job.
- 36:01Speaker 4: He's actually out at he's a tight ends coach for
- 36:03Speaker 4: the Green Bay Packers now, so he's doing he's doing well.
- 36:07Speaker 4: But it was never like if you're a tight end
- 36:09Speaker 4: that those kind of college Yeah, exactly, you're not.
- 36:13Speaker 6: It was a good move going to.
- 36:14Speaker 2: Notre Dame, for sure.
- 36:15Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean you got you were drafting the what
- 36:19Speaker 1: second round, forty third overall, twenty eleven. Shout out the Boys,
- 36:23Speaker 1: Minnesota Vikings. The Boys got we got you for like
- 36:25Speaker 1: ten minutes. Let's talk about your NFL.
- 36:27Speaker 2: Career a little bit.
- 36:28Speaker 1: Talk about talk about some of the beginning. You You've
- 36:31Speaker 1: made the Pro Bowl twice. Talk about your rookie year,
- 36:34Speaker 1: your early years with the Vikings.
- 36:37Speaker 5: So I think one of the best stories early in
- 36:40Speaker 5: my career twenty twelve season, I was an alternate for
- 36:45Speaker 5: the Pro Bowl, and you know, Tony Gonzalez was the
- 36:48Speaker 5: tight end from the NFC that made it, and.
- 36:52Speaker 7: I didn't believe on yours.
- 36:54Speaker 5: No, he's got here there. So I'm an alternate for
- 36:58Speaker 5: the Pro Bowl. Our season ends, I think we lost
- 37:00Speaker 5: in the first round of the Playoffs, and we had
- 37:02Speaker 5: like four weeks before the Pro Bowl and it was
- 37:05Speaker 5: Tony and Jason and the Pro Bowl. Like these guys
- 37:08Speaker 5: are both going like they go every year. It was
- 37:10Speaker 5: still in Hawaii at the time, so I'm like, all right,
- 37:14Speaker 5: it's off season. You know how it is. You start
- 37:17Speaker 5: enjoying yourself, eating and drinking whatever you want. Early in
- 37:21Speaker 5: my career, I played a lot heavier than I do now,
- 37:23Speaker 5: Like I would have no joke, would play at like
- 37:25Speaker 5: two sixty eight and let myself go a little bit.
- 37:30Speaker 5: And sure enough, Tuesday of the Pro Bowl, I get
- 37:32Speaker 5: a phone call that, hey, Tony's Tony's brothers graduating from
- 37:36Speaker 5: the I think, like the La County Fire Department Academy,
- 37:38Speaker 5: and he's not going, So do you want to go? Absolutely?
- 37:42Speaker 5: I want to go, Like second year in the league,
- 37:44Speaker 5: opportunity to go to the Pro Bowl. Who cares if
- 37:46Speaker 5: I'm two hundred and eighty four pounds over them.
- 37:51Speaker 6: That's a dude, that's a unit like Antonio Gates and a.
- 37:55Speaker 5: White body out there, just massive. I mean, like I
- 37:58Speaker 5: see pictures from that week, faces like this big round
- 38:02Speaker 5: and so we go over there. Matt Kleil comes over
- 38:05Speaker 5: later in the week as well. He was in alternate
- 38:08Speaker 5: Trent Williams got hit in the head with the champagne
- 38:10Speaker 5: bottle and the club on Thursday. So Friday morning he
- 38:13Speaker 5: had like stitches in his I couldn't see. He couldn't
- 38:16Speaker 5: put a helmet on. They call Matt, hey, you want
- 38:18Speaker 5: to come over. He comes over even later than I did,
- 38:20Speaker 5: and he was the opposite. He had a hard time
- 38:22Speaker 5: keeping weight on. So we played in the game. He
- 38:25Speaker 5: was left tackle at two hundred and eighty pounds. I
- 38:28Speaker 5: played tight end at two eighty four and we ended
- 38:31Speaker 5: up having a good time, great, great few days in Hawaii.
- 38:35Speaker 5: But that's always laugh at people and they asked, you
- 38:37Speaker 5: know what, wait, have you played at before? I'm like, well,
- 38:39Speaker 5: I kind of played in the scrimmage at two hundred
- 38:41Speaker 5: and eighty four pounds. But yeah, it was. It was
- 38:44Speaker 5: a good time ate and drank a lot all week long.
- 38:46Speaker 5: And people wonder why the Pro Bowl isn't competitive because
- 38:49Speaker 5: they don't see the week leading up to the game.
- 38:52Speaker 6: Yeah, the Pro Bowl leading up is It's the most
- 38:54Speaker 6: fun thing ever, is it not.
- 38:55Speaker 1: Yeah?
- 38:57Speaker 5: And literally, for me at that point in my career,
- 39:00Speaker 5: I wish the league would take it back to Hawaii
- 39:02Speaker 5: for that reason. You know, Disney is great and it's
- 39:05Speaker 5: awesome for families. There's a lot more to do in Orlando.
- 39:08Speaker 5: But in Hawaii, we all stayed at the same hotel.
- 39:12Speaker 5: There was one pool, one bar, and literally I remember,
- 39:15Speaker 5: you know, walking past Peyton Manning and Champ Bailey, Jeff Saturday,
- 39:19Speaker 5: like these just absolute legends that I looked up to
- 39:22Speaker 5: my whole life as a football fan, and they're like, hey,
- 39:26Speaker 5: you know, my first Pro Bowl. Go to the bar, like,
- 39:28Speaker 5: get us drinks, get us. You know, they had these
- 39:30Speaker 5: fried chicken wings that were just absolutely ridiculous. Probably had
- 39:35Speaker 5: you know, multiple baskets of them a day, which helped
- 39:37Speaker 5: me get to two eighty four for the game. But
- 39:40Speaker 5: just the camaraderie of like everybody hanging out from the
- 39:43Speaker 5: time we got back from walk through at eleven thirty
- 39:46Speaker 5: in the morning until two or three o'clock at night.
- 39:49Speaker 5: No one left the pool, no one left the bar,
- 39:52Speaker 5: and it's just a huge celebration of a successful year.
- 39:56Speaker 5: And then the game is just kind of an afterthought.
- 39:58Speaker 5: We go out there, half fun, don't get hurt, and
- 40:01Speaker 5: you know, if it gets close in the fourth quarter,
- 40:02Speaker 5: let's win it. Because you get twice the amount of money.
- 40:05Speaker 4: Right, Yeah, the game is actually the worst part, like you.
- 40:07Speaker 4: Like the best part, like you says, the camaraderie with
- 40:09Speaker 4: the boys, Like getting to meet these people you need
- 40:12Speaker 4: to see on TV on Sundays all time but never
- 40:14Speaker 4: get to know them at all.
- 40:15Speaker 6: That's that's got to be the coolest part.
- 40:18Speaker 5: Yeah, and a story like you you can relate to
- 40:21Speaker 5: this as a tackle. The last time I went in Orlando,
- 40:25Speaker 5: we were the AFC came back towards the end of
- 40:29Speaker 5: the game, so we were in like two minutes and
- 40:31Speaker 5: the end of the game, and you have these Pro
- 40:34Speaker 5: Bowl rushers on the other side, and I think Andrew
- 40:36Speaker 5: Whitworth was that right tackle, and he's like, I haven't
- 40:39Speaker 5: been in the right handed stance since like junior high.
- 40:41Speaker 5: So if you could chip Von Miller on your way out,
- 40:44Speaker 5: like that would be great, and you're not allowed to
- 40:46Speaker 5: chip in the Pro Bowl. He's like, just just run
- 40:48Speaker 5: your route through him. Like I'm like, I got you,
- 40:50Speaker 5: I'll take care of it.
- 40:51Speaker 6: He did it, but yeah, no, like I ran that awesome,
- 40:54Speaker 6: what a boy move.
- 40:56Speaker 5: I'd like go through or I was like, okay, if
- 40:58Speaker 5: I'm going that way, I'll start outside of them and
- 41:00Speaker 5: just slow them down a little bit. And but it
- 41:03Speaker 5: was you know how it is at the end of
- 41:04Speaker 5: the game if it's close, guys know, like, hey, we
- 41:07Speaker 5: can get twice the money if I get a sack
- 41:10Speaker 5: or you know, winning touchdown. Not only do I get
- 41:13Speaker 5: twice the money, I might walk out of here with
- 41:14Speaker 5: a new car. Like yeah, you know, guys started playing
- 41:17Speaker 5: hard at the end of the game.
- 41:19Speaker 4: It's like a hounta Genesis or some shit like that,
- 41:21Speaker 4: Like what are you gonna do with that? Like it
- 41:24Speaker 4: doesn't make it doesn't make any sense. The good Dane
- 41:26Speaker 4: for me was like all the three Probowls I've been in,
- 41:30Speaker 4: the AFC's won and one like Handley, like the last
- 41:34Speaker 4: few minutes of the games, like all right, well this
- 41:36Speaker 4: is kind of a wash.
- 41:36Speaker 5: It is what it is. We in twenty thirteen we
- 41:39Speaker 5: won big. We scored like sixty something. That was a blowout.
- 41:43Speaker 5: We were kind of chilling most of the fourth quarter.
- 41:45Speaker 5: But then the other one in eighteen, we we blew
- 41:49Speaker 5: a lead. We had a big lead. It was raining
- 41:51Speaker 5: the whole time, which it seems like it's raining every
- 41:53Speaker 5: year in Orlando, but we had a big lead and
- 41:56Speaker 5: then they came back at the end scored, We got
- 41:58Speaker 5: the ball to go down the field in two minutes
- 42:00Speaker 5: and then it just turned into super competitive. Like I said,
- 42:02Speaker 5: the Rushiers were all Russian. I think Vaughn got the
- 42:05Speaker 5: MVP getting multiple sacks at the end of the game.
- 42:08Speaker 6: Twenty eighteen.
- 42:10Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, I've never been to the one in Hawaii,
- 42:12Speaker 4: but I mean Orlando is a fun time, like when
- 42:15Speaker 4: you get to shut down the Universal Studios and like
- 42:19Speaker 4: to bring your family and do the Disney and you
- 42:20Speaker 4: have like your kids are getting the frontal line on everything.
- 42:23Speaker 6: Like you have the fast Fast Pass. Yeah, like that's
- 42:25Speaker 6: that's so much fun, dude, That's gotta be a blast.
- 42:29Speaker 5: The VIP tour at Disney was worth it. My girls
- 42:32Speaker 5: were like one and a half at the time and
- 42:35Speaker 5: loved Mickey until we got to meet Mickey in person
- 42:37Speaker 5: and they were absolutely scared to death, just freaking out.
- 42:41Speaker 5: And it had like a recorded voice, so like it
- 42:45Speaker 5: was whoever was inside of it was talking, it would
- 42:47Speaker 5: sound like Mickey and it freaked my girls out. They
- 42:49Speaker 5: were not having it. But we used the VIP tour
- 42:52Speaker 5: to do like you said, like the fast Fast Pass
- 42:54Speaker 5: to get in the front, all the rides. It was.
- 42:57Speaker 5: It was a good way to do Disney, that's for sure.
- 42:59Speaker 6: No doubt.
- 43:00Speaker 4: I honestly don't think I can ever do Disney a
- 43:02Speaker 4: different way now, as selfish as that sounds like, I
- 43:05Speaker 4: will pay that extra money now to go do whether
- 43:08Speaker 4: it's Disney World, Disneyland, either one of them for you,
- 43:11Speaker 4: Like when you're a tight end and you're used to catching,
- 43:14Speaker 4: but like you like your second year Pro Bowl alternate,
- 43:17Speaker 4: like so many catches and then now you go into
- 43:20Speaker 4: a different role the next couple of years. I know
- 43:22Speaker 4: you had a couple of injuries, but you're kind of
- 43:23Speaker 4: putting a role like battle line play. We need you
- 43:25Speaker 4: to go and block. We need to do more like
- 43:28Speaker 4: max protection stuff. From an ego standpoint, How does that
- 43:31Speaker 4: affect you? Is that like one of those things that's like,
- 43:33Speaker 4: you know, I'm a Pro Bowl tight end. I don't
- 43:35Speaker 4: need to be like I need to catch it.
- 43:37Speaker 7: I'm a Pro Bowl I'm the man.
- 43:38Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 43:39Speaker 5: No, I mean I would love to just be able
- 43:42Speaker 5: to run around and catch balls. I mean it's what
- 43:46Speaker 5: I've done for a long time. It's you know, always
- 43:49Speaker 5: what's been easier for me, Like past blocking and run
- 43:52Speaker 5: blocking hasn't been what I've done well for most of
- 43:56Speaker 5: my career, so it's it's more of a grind for me.
- 43:59Speaker 5: Like if you know I'm lining up against a defensive
- 44:01Speaker 5: end or outside linebacker, I just have to try hard,
- 44:04Speaker 5: you know, because you're gonna be way more athletic than
- 44:07Speaker 5: I am, are going to be way stronger than me.
- 44:10Speaker 5: Now you're gonna be way bigger than me. So it's
- 44:13Speaker 5: just it's hard, you know. I, like I said, I
- 44:16Speaker 5: want to run around and catch balls. I feel like, uh,
- 44:18Speaker 5: you know, I bring added value to our team in
- 44:21Speaker 5: the past game, you know, especially down in the red zone.
- 44:23Speaker 5: Being a taller guy, being a basketball player. It's it's
- 44:27Speaker 5: there's a lot of similarities in red zone football and
- 44:31Speaker 5: you know, just going up and get rebound and so
- 44:34Speaker 5: I feel like I do that well. And obviously if
- 44:39Speaker 5: if we're getting sacked immediately or you know, we're having
- 44:42Speaker 5: troubles protecting, it does no good if we have all
- 44:44Speaker 5: these great design plays and I'm out running around. So like,
- 44:48Speaker 5: I get it. You know, there are times where you know,
- 44:50Speaker 5: I got to stand next to the tackle and you know,
- 44:52Speaker 5: here comes you know, a future Hall of Fame rusher
- 44:55Speaker 5: we got to do what we got to do that
- 44:57Speaker 5: to win games. But I do I love run around
- 45:00Speaker 5: and catching the football and making plays in the past game,
- 45:04Speaker 5: just put.
- 45:05Speaker 1: Them in the back of the end zone and throw
- 45:06Speaker 1: it up, do the rebounding kind of push off a
- 45:08Speaker 1: little bit, go up and grab it and win a
- 45:10Speaker 1: playoff game, beat the Saints.
- 45:12Speaker 7: Controversial call.
- 45:13Speaker 5: You know, there you go.
- 45:18Speaker 1: Let's talk about skin for a second. If you've been

- 47:01Speaker 1: get back to the episode.
- 47:04Speaker 7: What a We talked about this when we were in Miami.
- 47:07Speaker 1: We're going back and forth from a defensive perspective offensive
- 47:11Speaker 1: perspective of the whole pushed off thing. I feel like, uh,
- 47:15Speaker 1: the Saints got slided a little bit their own rule
- 47:17Speaker 1: they created the year before us.
- 47:21Speaker 5: I have to disagree with you because the rule was
- 47:23Speaker 5: put in for them, so like for the NFL to
- 47:27Speaker 5: have a chance to vindicate, like, hey, we put this
- 47:30Speaker 5: rule in for you. It's a scoring play, so you
- 47:33Speaker 5: don't even have to challenge it. We're going to review
- 47:34Speaker 5: it anyways, and we're going to take the time. We're
- 47:37Speaker 5: going to look at it. And they still couldn't overrule it.
- 47:40Speaker 5: So that's where I know it's just football, Like, yeah,
- 47:43Speaker 5: you know, was I touching him? Absolutely? Was he grabbing me? Absolutely?
- 47:46Speaker 5: But that's that's football, especially down in the red zone,
- 47:49Speaker 5: Like you know, guys are hand fighting all the time.
- 47:51Speaker 5: And I've explained it a couple of times. The difference
- 47:54Speaker 5: between like if we would have been close together and
- 47:57Speaker 5: I would have pushed him away from me, that's and
- 48:00Speaker 5: it's what George Kittle did in the Super Bowl. He
- 48:02Speaker 5: was running right next to that guy and then extended
- 48:05Speaker 5: the arm. If he would have just held him at
- 48:08Speaker 5: arms distance away, that's what you're going to get away
- 48:10Speaker 5: with that every time, because your arm's already extended, then
- 48:14Speaker 5: you just you basically like remove your arm from him
- 48:17Speaker 5: and make the catch. If you do the opposite, if
- 48:19Speaker 5: you create the separation instead of just keep the separation,
- 48:23Speaker 5: they're going to call it every time because that's what
- 48:24Speaker 5: they're looking for, is the extension. And for instance, on
- 48:28Speaker 5: that play, we're going back and forth, he was grabbing
- 48:30Speaker 5: me and it was almost like, I know the ball's coming.
- 48:33Speaker 5: You know, it's cover zero quarterback draw. The only outlet
- 48:36Speaker 5: for us was to throw the fade on the back side,
- 48:38Speaker 5: so I knew the ball was coming right away, and
- 48:41Speaker 5: I was almost like, yeah, you can grab me like that.
- 48:44Speaker 5: I would much rather have a smaller guy create contact
- 48:47Speaker 5: try to grab me because they're way faster than I am,
- 48:50Speaker 5: way more athletic. If they give me some space, they
- 48:53Speaker 5: can close the ground, you know, in a split second.
- 48:56Speaker 5: So once he started grabbing me, I was like, okay,
- 48:57Speaker 5: I'll just let you grab me. I'll keep you at
- 48:59Speaker 5: bay and then I'll make a play on the ball. So, uh,
- 49:02Speaker 5: that's that's my story. I'm sticking to it, uh, you know,
- 49:05Speaker 5: And it wasn't called, so therefore it was not offensive pass.
- 49:12Speaker 6: I hate to do it to you. I know you're
- 49:14Speaker 6: my boy, but I feel like he's right.
- 49:16Speaker 5: Oh, no, I just I just I just feel like,
- 49:19Speaker 5: for like, if if there was an opportunity to overrule
- 49:23Speaker 5: a call a game winning touchdown in New Orleans where
- 49:27Speaker 5: the rule was created, that was it.
- 49:29Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 49:31Speaker 1: No, I'm just glad, I'm glad I got you fired up.
- 49:33Speaker 1: I was actually I was actually excited for the old
- 49:36Speaker 1: Kirk on that one because he wins a playoff game.
- 49:38Speaker 1: Everybody's shaming my man all the time about the big game,
- 49:41Speaker 1: so I knew that one was huge for the boys.
- 49:44Speaker 5: So the dime that he dropped to get us down
- 49:48Speaker 5: inside the five yard line was one of the best
- 49:50Speaker 5: throws I've ever seen. I mean, just absolutely absurd. Uh,
- 49:54Speaker 5: And he played huge for us all year. I'd say
- 49:56Speaker 5: it every time people ask, like I literally just got
- 49:59Speaker 5: done doing an interview before I hopped on here with
- 50:01Speaker 5: you guys, and they're like, what does Kirk Cousins have
- 50:03Speaker 5: to do to take you guys to the next level?
- 50:05Speaker 2: Right?
- 50:05Speaker 5: And I was like, just do what he did all
- 50:08Speaker 5: year last year, and you know, maybe one of the
- 50:11Speaker 5: other ten guys on offense can step up and play better.
- 50:14Speaker 5: And you know, just the quarterback is not going to
- 50:16Speaker 5: go win games for you. There's ten other guys on
- 50:18Speaker 5: the field, so he does. He always gets a bad rap.
- 50:21Speaker 5: But when you make that kind of money and you
- 50:23Speaker 5: sign those deals there, they're always going to point fingers
- 50:26Speaker 5: at the quarterback. They get way too much credit when
- 50:28Speaker 5: we win, and they get way too much blame lose.
- 50:32Speaker 7: Well said.
- 50:34Speaker 4: You, uh, I know, we're we're running out of I
- 50:37Speaker 4: know when when's your stuff time? Will you're one forty
- 50:40Speaker 4: five hard stop?

- 52:18Speaker 4: I just want to know about your relationship with Portnoy,
- 52:20Speaker 4: because when we were down in Miami and they would
- 52:23Speaker 4: we officially joined up at barstool.
- 52:24Speaker 6: You were literally talk to you were you're the boy
- 52:27Speaker 6: you were the guy you were.
- 52:29Speaker 4: Dave apparently has secret shirts that guys have that I
- 52:32Speaker 4: need to figure out how to get. I want to
- 52:33Speaker 4: know about your relationship with Dave and also what if
- 52:37Speaker 4: you have a good relationship with him obviously you know
- 52:39Speaker 4: what this call our daddy stuff, like what's your what's
- 52:41Speaker 4: your bit on that?
- 52:42Speaker 5: Yeah, So really like it's funny because Dave was doing
- 52:50Speaker 5: they started the casting couch like San Francisco super Bowl.
- 52:54Speaker 5: They had the bus and they had I think I
- 52:58Speaker 5: was on with Dave and Big Cat and I'm not
- 53:03Speaker 5: sure there was one other. Maybe Greg Olsen was on
- 53:07Speaker 5: like right before me. And it was my first time,
- 53:09Speaker 5: like ever being introduced to barstool. I didn't really read
- 53:13Speaker 5: a lot of their stuff, the blogs back in the day.
- 53:18Speaker 5: But all my buddies were like, dude, like they love
- 53:21Speaker 5: tight ends and they have this bust RV that's parked
- 53:25Speaker 5: somewhere in San Francisco. You have to find it and
- 53:28Speaker 5: you've got to get on. So my high school tight
- 53:30Speaker 5: end coach is a huge STOOLI and has been a
- 53:33Speaker 5: study for you know, the last twenty years. However long
- 53:36Speaker 5: day's been doing it. And he's like, all right, I'll
- 53:39Speaker 5: reach out and literally he's the one that got in
- 53:41Speaker 5: contact with him, and they got the address where the
- 53:44Speaker 5: bus was parked, showed up, did it with them, and
- 53:47Speaker 5: you know, we had a good time sitting there chatting.
- 53:50Speaker 5: Then that summer I had my charity golf tournament here
- 53:54Speaker 5: in Minneapolis, and I was like, bring the boys out, like,
- 53:57Speaker 5: you guys will all be celebrities. Well, they thought they
- 54:00Speaker 5: were just like a group in my tournament. And when
- 54:03Speaker 5: they showed up, it was Dave, Frankie, Trenton Riggs and
- 54:08Speaker 5: they all were their own celebrities, so they thought they
- 54:11Speaker 5: were just playing in a group. And yeah, but like
- 54:14Speaker 5: I brought him out to be celebrities in my tournament.
- 54:16Speaker 5: And you know at the time, you know, and now
- 54:19Speaker 5: that he's like, Frankie can't be a celebrity, Like what
- 54:21Speaker 5: the hell are you talking about? Like nobody knows who
- 54:24Speaker 5: this guy is. Like he's a cameraman, he's not a celebrity.
- 54:28Speaker 5: So we had a good time at the golf tournament
- 54:30Speaker 5: and you know, like we just it's funny. Like I said,
- 54:33Speaker 5: I wasn't really a big stoolie before any of that stuff.
- 54:36Speaker 5: And then I tried to get out to New York
- 54:38Speaker 5: and see those guys and and hop on the different
- 54:41Speaker 5: shows and podcasts and stuff. So but yeah, I've kind
- 54:44Speaker 5: of followed all the colored Daddy stuff afar, but it
- 54:48Speaker 5: never ceases to amaze me that Dave always wins, and
- 54:52Speaker 5: like he just literally, like as I read up on it,
- 54:57Speaker 5: as I watched some of his press conferences, every time
- 55:00Speaker 5: he comes out with the emergency press conference, I'm just like,
- 55:03Speaker 5: why are you mess with this guy? He always always
- 55:06Speaker 5: seems to seem to find a way to be the
- 55:09Speaker 5: winner at the end.
- 55:11Speaker 4: It's such a cult following too, right, Like if Dave
- 55:14Speaker 4: says this, this is fucking happening.
- 55:17Speaker 1: Like all this memurs, all this video guys, people are
- 55:20Speaker 1: just pushing like, oh that's get them. Yeah, all these
- 55:24Speaker 1: videos just put ahead on a movie scene and the
- 55:26Speaker 1: winner is going to be Dave and you're you're just
- 55:28Speaker 1: getting crushed, dude.
- 55:30Speaker 5: I literally I can't think of anyone else in the
- 55:36Speaker 5: world that I would want to like have beef with
- 55:39Speaker 5: or like go at just because, like you said, all
- 55:41Speaker 5: the resources of AMMO that he has to just destroy
