- 3:30Speaker 1: this hour from the shindig that took place in the
- 3:33Speaker 1: Bay Area, and I gotta tell you there's nothing I
- 3:36Speaker 1: like more than seeing all these reporters bitching because they
- 3:39Speaker 1: had to drive from San Francisco to this event that
- 3:43Speaker 1: they're running up their expense accounts on. And you talk
- 3:46Speaker 1: about spoiled children, a bunch of hacks. I wish you know.
- 3:52Speaker 1: I hope next time the Super bowls in San Francisco
- 3:54Speaker 1: they make media day, they should put it out in
- 3:57Speaker 1: Hawaii and make the idiot reporters swim to Hawaii. That's
- 4:00Speaker 1: why they ought to do these jackasses. Nonetheless, super Bowl
- 4:04Speaker 1: Opening Night took place last night. The media feeding frenzy,
- 4:08Speaker 1: thousands of free loading reporters across the globe gathered to
- 4:12Speaker 1: crank up the volume on the Patriots and the Seahawks.
- 4:16Speaker 1: It was made for TV extravaganza right there. And if
- 4:20Speaker 1: you saw any of this, hopefully you didn't. We watched
- 4:24Speaker 1: some of it so you would not have to. Perhaps
- 4:26Speaker 1: you weren't watching either, and you had all the razmataz,
- 4:32Speaker 1: or at least the attempted razmataz and their NFL issued
- 4:35Speaker 1: merch their sweatsuits, which you can buy for a nominal
- 4:40Speaker 1: fee of like a gazillion dollars. So the Patriots went first,
- 4:44Speaker 1: and they wandered around and they spoke in a bunch
- 4:47Speaker 1: of cliches. And then the Seahawks said, okay, why don't
- 4:50Speaker 1: we do that too, And then they went out there
- 4:51Speaker 1: and they walked around and they spoke in a bunch
- 4:53Speaker 1: of cliches, and okay, so that's all good. Jumping off point,
- 4:56Speaker 1: let's get into it here. The question. As we discussed
- 4:59Speaker 1: the question, what stood out? What stood out from Super
- 5:04Speaker 1: Bowl Opening Night? All Right, So super Bowl, I've got
- 5:08Speaker 1: i hoop Iowa Corn Season and park Place, and we
- 5:14Speaker 1: will combine all of these things together and we're gonna
- 5:17Speaker 1: make you a big jug of the gabba Ghoul. They're
- 5:21Speaker 1: gonna put it in the jug, and then we're gonna
- 5:22Speaker 1: have a side of the babaganooghe and that's what we're
- 5:25Speaker 1: gonna have. So to lead off here, this was not
- 5:28Speaker 1: just Super Bowl OBI night. It was Credential Palooza twenty
- 5:33Speaker 1: twenty six. You had over six thousand freeloaders, so called
- 5:37Speaker 1: reporters there roaming around six thousand, six thousand. Now that's
- 5:44Speaker 1: not a media event. That's like comic Con. It's essentially
- 5:47Speaker 1: comic Con is what it is, and everyone prancing around
- 5:51Speaker 1: and all that stuff. And this thing used to be organic,
- 5:55Speaker 1: much like comic Con used to be organic, right, And
- 5:57Speaker 1: then corporations got involved and media Day was just of
- 6:00Speaker 1: an organic thing. And then the NFL realized, well there's
- 6:03Speaker 1: some interest in this, why don't we try to market it,
- 6:05Speaker 1: and why don't we try to make some money on it?
- 6:06Speaker 1: And we'll ruin it and they have, So congratulations of
- 6:09Speaker 1: the NFL. Just like Comic CON's been taken over by
- 6:11Speaker 1: the comic book people and the movie people, and it's
- 6:16Speaker 1: not what it was intended to be. But the same
- 6:18Speaker 1: thing happened here. So simple used to be a simple
- 6:21Speaker 1: daytime thing, and the media go out there and then
- 6:24Speaker 1: then they'd ask basic questions, and every once in a
- 6:27Speaker 1: while there'd be somebody that would come in and ask
- 6:29Speaker 1: something silly, and then that would be it, and then
- 6:31Speaker 1: everyone say beat it, and everyone leave, and then that
- 6:34Speaker 1: was that. Now this is a ticketed, prime time led
- 6:40Speaker 1: lit dog and pony show. The Westminster Dog Show is
- 6:43Speaker 1: in New York. It should be at the super Bowl
- 6:45Speaker 1: because it's kind of like a mini dog show and
- 6:48Speaker 1: it's broadcast coast to coast. Can't imagine many people were
- 6:52Speaker 1: watching this, but there they were. The NFL overlords took
- 6:56Speaker 1: a garage band, which was what media Day had been,
- 6:59Speaker 1: and they turned it into a corporate boy band. It's
- 7:03Speaker 1: a lip syncing boy band, is what it is now.
- 7:06Speaker 1: And as always, you had kid reporters had they were
- 7:10Speaker 1: reading off the Q cars, the cute little kid reporter
- 7:13Speaker 1: and it's always it's always a great gag. You do
- 7:16Speaker 1: that because can be who can be a douche to
- 7:20Speaker 1: a kid?
- 7:20Speaker 2: Right?
- 7:20Speaker 1: You gotta be nice to a kid. The other thing
- 7:22Speaker 1: is to say, I've got some questions. The other trick
- 7:26Speaker 1: is I got questions from you know, missus Smith's third
- 7:30Speaker 1: grade class from blah blah blah blah blah elementary school
- 7:34Speaker 1: in Peoria, Illinois. Well, you have to answer the question,
- 7:37Speaker 1: and you ask the most offensive questions possible, but you
- 7:40Speaker 1: have to answer them. Right. You had there were a
- 7:42Speaker 1: few women there who were dressed like they were ready
- 7:45Speaker 1: to go out sun tanning or go to the nightclub
- 7:47Speaker 1: at one in the morning. So you had that. Uh,
- 7:49Speaker 1: there were clowns everywhere, literally and figuratively clowns everywhere. Now,
- 7:53Speaker 1: the biggest star of this, it would appear based on
- 7:56Speaker 1: from what I saw, was Guillermo from the Jimmy Kimmel Show.
- 8:00Speaker 1: So the court gesture as he has been and Kimmel
- 8:04Speaker 1: stole that bit from David Letterman, and so they Girmo
- 8:07Speaker 1: playing the role of the studio security guard. Right. They
- 8:11Speaker 1: They had a similar thing when Letterman did the Late
- 8:14Speaker 1: Night Show. I was even hanging out props. It was
- 8:16Speaker 1: like a birthday party. It was fine. Sam Donald was
- 8:19Speaker 1: given a ham hat and it's Ham for Sam or
- 8:24Speaker 1: Sam for Ham or something like that, and he actually
- 8:26Speaker 1: put it on for a couple seconds, and that was
- 8:29Speaker 1: the most interesting thing that Sam Donald did. I determined,
- 8:32Speaker 1: based on listening to Drake May and Sam Donald, if
- 8:35Speaker 1: these guys are going to be good quarterbacks for the
- 8:36Speaker 1: next couple years, we're cooked. It's over. These guys are
- 8:39Speaker 1: so boring. My god, they are so bad. There's nothing
- 8:43Speaker 1: interesting about either one of them. It's painful. Like Sam,
- 8:48Speaker 1: I know you're supposed to do that, and that's the
- 8:49Speaker 1: whole thing, but I can't you at least pretend to
- 8:52Speaker 1: be somewhat interesting. Guys have gotten national advertisements because of
- 8:56Speaker 1: being goofballs at media Day. Marshawn Lynch is still living
- 9:00Speaker 1: off that fugazy thing back in the day when I'm
- 9:03Speaker 1: just here so I don't get fined in all that.
- 9:06Speaker 1: He's still he's still doing commercials by being a being
- 9:09Speaker 1: a character I Media Day. These quarterbacks, my god, are
- 9:12Speaker 1: they boring. Welcome to Dolesville. The mayor is Sam Darnold
- 9:18Speaker 1: and the assistant mayor is Drake May, Baring baring, And
- 9:25Speaker 1: this whole thing's like I hop though the whole event,
- 9:27Speaker 1: it's like I hoop. It's the fluffy pancakes. It's all fluff,
- 9:31Speaker 1: golden stack of pancakes and a lot of empty calories.
- 9:35Speaker 1: And that's that. There you go, extra syrupy, look great
- 9:39Speaker 1: and tells you nothing. The Filipbuster, as the late great
- 9:43Speaker 1: godfather of soul back in his day, James Brown said,
- 9:46Speaker 1: you know, talking loud and saying nothing, and talking loud
- 9:50Speaker 1: and saying nothing, and everyone is trying to say bupkus
- 9:57Speaker 1: right there, I don't want anything, Mike Rabel, there was.
- 10:00Speaker 1: This is also a great gag question by a guy
- 10:02Speaker 1: that used to work here, by the way, Dave Damashek,
- 10:05Speaker 1: who worked here briefly. Of course, everyone seemingly worked here
- 10:07Speaker 1: at least for a minute. But Damashek asked Mike Rabel
- 10:11Speaker 1: if the Super Bowl was a must win game, which
- 10:15Speaker 1: is always the ultimate dumb question to ask, because you
- 10:19Speaker 1: really there's only one way to answer, Yes, it's a
- 10:21Speaker 1: must win. If you don't say it's a must win game,
- 10:23Speaker 1: then you're an idiot. You gotta say it right. You
- 10:26Speaker 1: had Jackson Smith and Jigba. He was decked out in sunglasses.
- 10:29Speaker 1: He was too cool for school. He was out there
- 10:30Speaker 1: doing his thing. Now. Furthermore to the injury, tent we go,
- 10:35Speaker 1: We're quarterback. Drake May revealed he has no limitations. This
- 10:41Speaker 1: has been a storyline that didn't look very good in
- 10:44Speaker 1: the Playoff's been a disaster for the Patriots. They've won
- 10:46Speaker 1: in spite of Drake May. In fact, the sacks and
- 10:50Speaker 1: the bad plays. Drake May has been horrible in the playoffs.
- 10:54Speaker 1: So Drake May says his shoulder injury has improved ahead
- 10:57Speaker 1: of Super Bowl sixty the showdown with Seattle. Does this
- 11:03Speaker 1: end the chatter? Does this end the chatter? So the
- 11:08Speaker 1: answer to this is rather obvious. I'd like an N
- 11:11Speaker 1: and an oh, we'll put those together. No longer answer,
- 11:15Speaker 1: not even close, not even close. That is Hall of Fame.
- 11:20Speaker 1: Nothingness is what that is. That is a quarterback reading
- 11:23Speaker 1: off the teleprompter. There was a lot of that at
- 11:26Speaker 1: this media event, and it's like, what is he supposed
- 11:29Speaker 1: to say? It's like, yeah, my arm's hanging on by
- 11:31Speaker 1: a rubber band. Please pray for me. Yeah, So this
- 11:35Speaker 1: is standard issue, standard issue from Drake May. You keep
- 11:40Speaker 1: it close to the vest, you zip it up, you
- 11:42Speaker 1: double knot it. That whole thing and no one again
- 11:45Speaker 1: is spilling the tea unless they're complete knuckleheads, but you
- 11:49Speaker 1: can make it somewhat entertaining. This wasn't all that entertaining.
- 11:53Speaker 1: It was not. And so we're less than a week
- 11:56Speaker 1: away from the game here and you're sitting here on
- 11:58Speaker 1: an early Tuesday, the games on Sunday, and don't want
- 12:02Speaker 1: to open up Pandora's box. Don't want to do that.
- 12:05Speaker 1: So one sentence and then boom, twenty four to seven
- 12:09Speaker 1: around the clock. Hot takes the bottom line, scroll the
- 12:13Speaker 1: alerts on your phone. Engagement farming like it's Iowa corn season.
- 12:20Speaker 1: A lot of farming going on, a lot of farming
- 12:23Speaker 1: going on. And every throw in warm ups, every throw
- 12:27Speaker 1: in practice during the media availability, well, Drake May didn't
- 12:31Speaker 1: throw while the media was there, and it's gonna get
- 12:33Speaker 1: the Zebruder film treatment when he does eventually throw on camera,
- 12:36Speaker 1: and you'll do the slow mo. We've already had the
- 12:39Speaker 1: body language when he got off the plane. It's like, well,
- 12:41Speaker 1: he was carrying the bag with the shoulder that was
- 12:43Speaker 1: supposed to be injured. So that's a good sign. And
- 12:46Speaker 1: you get out the telestrator, you have the arrow and
- 12:48Speaker 1: you point over there and then look at the shoulder.
- 12:51Speaker 1: What's going on with the shoulder that whole thing. And
- 12:55Speaker 1: here's the reality though, and I maintain I've not moved
- 12:59Speaker 1: from my take, and I'm at the top of hot
- 13:01Speaker 1: take Mountain. I have not come off hot take mountain.
- 13:04Speaker 1: That if Drake May can grip it and rip it,
- 13:08Speaker 1: He's playing no matter what. It's the Super Bowl, Dummy, Hello,
- 13:13Speaker 1: and let's be host by kickoff by kickoff in the
- 13:16Speaker 1: bowels of the stadium in Santa Clara. Drake May will
- 13:20Speaker 1: be escorted to the day Spa. He's gonna have the
- 13:23Speaker 1: deluxe day Spa package from Doctor Feel Good, ice tape,
- 13:30Speaker 1: magic juice, all of that. Super Bowl sixty baby, Right,
- 13:34Speaker 1: everyone's fine and even when they're not all right. Last thing,
- 13:37Speaker 1: we have a follow up follow up to a story
- 13:41Speaker 1: we talked about in a previous episode of the show.
- 13:44Speaker 1: We go to the gift shop the people at Fanatics
- 13:48Speaker 1: who put out a bunch of shoddy merchandise. Fanatics has
- 13:51Speaker 1: posted an apology to Patriots and Seahawks' backers for the
- 13:58Speaker 1: supply chain shortage ahead Super Bowl sixty. The company claimed
- 14:02Speaker 1: that there was a four hundred percent surge in merch
- 14:08Speaker 1: for those teams since Thanksgiving because of their unexpected playoff
- 14:12Speaker 1: runs from last season when they did not get it done.
- 14:16Speaker 1: So the question where does this Fanatics apology capital a
- 14:22Speaker 1: apology for struggling to meet what their claiming is the
- 14:27Speaker 1: overwhelming demand for Super Bowl merch Where does this leave them?
- 14:31Speaker 1: So they've now announced that yeah, we f'd up, bad
- 14:33Speaker 1: job by us, They've now apologized, So where does this
- 14:36Speaker 1: leave them? So the Fanatics apology tor which is what
- 14:41Speaker 1: this is, lands exactly where it belongs. Now, where is
- 14:45Speaker 1: that right in the recycling bin? Now, we often talked
- 14:48Speaker 1: about you should never apologize when you're in the public
- 14:51Speaker 1: eye like this because it just leads to more problems,
- 14:53Speaker 1: and this is a classic example of it. The people
- 14:56Speaker 1: at Fanatics are bad at their job. I wish they
- 14:59Speaker 1: were better. They control everything in the sports merged world,
- 15:05Speaker 1: and they're just seemingly really bad at it. And nobody
- 15:09Speaker 1: has the stones who work for any of these leagues
- 15:11Speaker 1: to say, well, wait a minute, why don't we review
- 15:13Speaker 1: that contract because this is not quality merchandise. They don't
- 15:16Speaker 1: do it, and so this ends up in the recycling
- 15:19Speaker 1: bent is right next to the last year's unsold conference
- 15:22Speaker 1: championship T shirts and hats, which I think have already
- 15:26Speaker 1: been shipped overseas. But this is a company that has
- 15:29Speaker 1: a full on monopoly. It's not a mom and pop shop.
- 15:35Speaker 1: They're not in the back and they're doing silk screens
- 15:39Speaker 1: in the back at the T shirt shop. That's not
- 15:42Speaker 1: what any of this is. Fanatics has a total choke
- 15:46Speaker 1: hold on the market on licensed sports merchandise and they've
- 15:52Speaker 1: had it in the NFL for more than a decade,
- 15:54Speaker 1: and they've had it a long time with these other
- 15:56Speaker 1: sports leagues as well. I think it's closer to fifteen
- 15:58Speaker 1: years now that Fanatics has been in control. Again, wouldn't
- 16:01Speaker 1: be a problem if they were good at it. They're
- 16:03Speaker 1: just not and they don't seem to care, which is
- 16:06Speaker 1: the mind boggling part. It's like, well, we got you.
- 16:09Speaker 1: You have no other options. There's only one country store
- 16:12Speaker 1: in town and we're the Country store. So sorry, you're screwed.
- 16:16Speaker 1: You're screwed. Right, So you look at it and mentioned
- 16:20Speaker 1: they have handcuffed the sports memorabia market for a long
- 16:23Speaker 1: time and they control the price, which is inflated. The
- 16:28Speaker 1: quality they run it like they run it's like monopoly.
- 16:32Speaker 1: Have boardwalk in park place? Right, And now that we're
- 16:35Speaker 1: supposed to see. Okay, well they apologized in you know,
- 16:40Speaker 1: clutching pearls because they had a four hundred percent demand
- 16:44Speaker 1: in March. That's not an act of God. Please, right,
- 16:48Speaker 1: it's not an act of God. Do your job. That's
- 16:52Speaker 1: literally your job. Like my job is to talk. I
- 16:55Speaker 1: talked for four hours a night. I don't say, oh
- 16:58Speaker 1: my god, I'll I'm overwhelmed. I've got to do another monologue.
- 17:01Speaker 1: Oh my god, I hope you understand, and then sit
- 17:05Speaker 1: there silently. I don't. My job is. Your job is
- 17:09Speaker 1: to find a way, do the research and figure out
- 17:12Speaker 1: how many shirts you have to have. How about you
- 17:14Speaker 1: design some nice looking stuff. The stuff you put out
- 17:16Speaker 1: is crap. It just looks discussed. I don't who's buying it.
- 17:20Speaker 1: You see those the hats they were wearing all year
- 17:22Speaker 1: in the NFL where you had the needle blank the
- 17:26Speaker 1: needle blank logo in the hats, and you needed like
- 17:30Speaker 1: X ray vision, you needed a magnifying glass to get
- 17:32Speaker 1: right next to you to see the logo. Like, why
- 17:34Speaker 1: would you bother making this crap? It's just disgusting. And
- 17:39Speaker 1: so they make this stuff and the merch shows up
- 17:42Speaker 1: and it looks like something you would win. We mentioned
- 17:44Speaker 1: this the other day, but it's like you win a raffle,
- 17:46Speaker 1: or you sign up for some discount at a chain
- 17:51Speaker 1: of gas stations. They're like, okay, so we're gonna give
- 17:54Speaker 1: you this apparel because you sign up for a membership program,
- 17:57Speaker 1: so we're gonna give you this this free T shirt.
- 17:59Speaker 1: And the course they charge you luxury brand pricing is
- 18:02Speaker 1: what they charge you, and they send you this slop
- 18:05Speaker 1: which is screen printed and cheap stitching. It's if you're
- 18:10Speaker 1: really on, if you're on the toilet with your dude
- 18:13Speaker 1: wipes and you're looking on your phone, you want to
- 18:15Speaker 1: go down a rabbit hole. Look at some of these
- 18:17Speaker 1: shoddy merchandise that the people at fanatics have sent out.
- 18:20Speaker 1: It's not great. I just wish they'd get better, you know.
- 18:22Speaker 1: Improve They don't seem to the same stories pop up
- 18:25Speaker 1: every year. Doesn't get better, and they have fewer authentic options.
- 18:30Speaker 1: The quality is bad. There's they've got so many excuses though.
- 18:33Speaker 1: Can you imagine you control the market for sports memorabilia
- 18:39Speaker 1: and you're like, well, listen, you know, I hate to
- 18:42Speaker 1: be the bare bad news here, but that is just
- 18:44Speaker 1: too much, too much interest in the product we can't.
- 18:47Speaker 1: We can't keep up with Well, what else are you doing? Seriously?
- 18:52Speaker 1: And the real comedy is fanatics defending the hideous fashion game.
- 18:59Speaker 1: They actually in this apology they claim to those that

- 23:27Speaker 1: I would love to. If somebody wants to overpay for
- 23:29Speaker 1: my car or the house I reside in, I would
- 23:32Speaker 1: be more than happy to rumors Ferg Dog and Alf
- 23:36Speaker 1: and Mallard prop Guy are putting their money together to
- 23:38Speaker 1: try to buy the Malor mansion. So I don't know
- 23:40Speaker 1: if that's true or not. Late Night Drug Tester says,
- 23:43Speaker 1: I'm glad to know that when the Malar merch is released,
- 23:46Speaker 1: it will be high quality, not like the crap fanatic cells.
- 23:51Speaker 1: Don't get me started on that. Late Night Drug Tester.
- 23:53Speaker 1: So last year in I want to say it was October,
- 23:58Speaker 1: might have been in November anyway, And in the end of
- 24:00Speaker 1: last year, somebody reached out to me and they were
- 24:02Speaker 1: like in the merch game, and they're like, I want
- 24:03Speaker 1: to make some Malord merch. I was, okay, I'm all
- 24:06Speaker 1: about that. Why not We'll make some T shirts, some hats,
- 24:08Speaker 1: something like that. Why not give the super fans an
- 24:10Speaker 1: opportunity to wear some merch, because who wouldn't want merch?
- 24:13Speaker 1: And so we had everything lined up. We were looking
- 24:15Speaker 1: at designs and all that, and this guy just ghosted me.
- 24:17Speaker 1: I haven't been ghosted since I was dating and women
- 24:20Speaker 1: used to do that, but this guy ghosted me.
- 24:21Speaker 2: Man.
- 24:21Speaker 6: I was like, what a douche PTSD.
- 24:24Speaker 1: So I don't know anyway, I'd like to put some
- 24:27Speaker 1: stuff out there. I don't want to make cheap, crappy stuff,
- 24:30Speaker 1: something that will last. We've made a few shirts over
- 24:33Speaker 1: the years at different times, and I still see those
- 24:36Speaker 1: pop up every once in a while. Go to Mallard
- 24:37Speaker 1: meet and greets and somebody will bring out a shirt
- 24:39Speaker 1: that we made in like two thousand and seven or
- 24:41Speaker 1: something like that, and that's kind of cool. You still

- 31:16Speaker 1: Let's say hello to aeny me. Let's go to a
- 31:20Speaker 1: d who's in Colorado. By the way. We are moments
- 31:23Speaker 1: away and well actually a few minutes away from site
- 31:27Speaker 1: the bite the Great sports radio Mystery. Hello a D
- 31:30Speaker 1: in Colorado. If I was any better, I'd be watching
- 31:34Speaker 1: the Pro Bowl, which I guess is on Tuesday night,
- 31:36Speaker 1: but I will be watching the Dog Show instead. That's
- 31:39Speaker 1: what I'm gonna be watching.
- 31:41Speaker 8: Things a little bit more interesting in that Pro Bowl.
- 31:43Speaker 8: I don't know what we need to do, to think,
- 31:45Speaker 8: but we need to do something.
- 31:47Speaker 1: Well, it's at this point. How do you fix it?
- 31:49Speaker 1: The players don't want to play football. It's a flag
- 31:51Speaker 1: football games, so there's really nothing They've they've decided they
- 31:54Speaker 1: don't want to compete. They've lost the competitive spirit. They
- 31:58Speaker 1: all make too much money. They're all too rare and
- 32:00Speaker 1: happy and all that, so they don't give a crap.
- 32:02Speaker 1: That's the bottom line. If they had to earn their
- 32:04Speaker 1: supper and sing for their supper, as the line goes,
- 32:07Speaker 1: they'd be out there running around and hitting people like
- 32:09Speaker 1: they used to do in the Pro Bowl.
- 32:10Speaker 8: So we need to be putting the coaches out there
- 32:13Speaker 8: the Coaches Bowl.
- 32:15Speaker 1: Yeah, I'd like to see Andy Reid out there playing.
- 32:16Speaker 1: That's what I want to see. It's a good idea.
- 32:18Speaker 1: Put him running back exactly.
- 32:21Speaker 2: All right.
- 32:22Speaker 1: Well, I saw a bunch of guys bailed out on
- 32:24Speaker 1: the Pro Bowl that were like Justin Fields got invited
- 32:26Speaker 1: to the Pro Bowl. Holy crap, he turned it down.
- 32:29Speaker 8: People, get shine. We'll get to see shine finally, for once,
- 32:33Speaker 8: we'll have a coach under there. He's gonna prove his worth.
- 32:36Speaker 8: He's gonna come back next year.
- 32:37Speaker 2: He's gonna be.
- 32:38Speaker 8: Slinging him down there.
- 32:39Speaker 1: Let's not get crazy, now, let's not get crazy, a
- 32:42Speaker 1: little optimistic, all right, take you ade, I appreciate that.
- 32:44Speaker 1: Say Illo to uh. Let's see here, what do we have?
