  We're now talking to the one and only fan of the Fanatic Fest and
• 1:57
  3rd place winner The one the only.
• 2:00
  Matthew Dennisch. Matthew, what's up, buddy?
• 2:04
  What's up guys? Well, have have have you ever
• 2:08
  been on a show like this? This is this is a crazy show.
• 2:11
  You get a chance to speak with Jabba Chamberlain for a little
• 2:13
  while. Jabba's eating his Twix and
• 2:16
  whatever he's eating over there. Probably getting some Reese's
• 2:19
  Pieces stuck in his. Oh, there it is.
• 2:21
  What is that? A Tootsie roll?
• 2:22
  Pop a Tootsie roll. Hopefully didn't get get it lost
• 2:25
  in his. No, there.
• 2:28
  They're called fruities. Fruities.
• 2:29
  They're flavored Tootsie Rolls. Oh, there you go.
• 2:31
  Flavored Tootsie Rolls. Maybe we, you know, they're
• 2:34
  awesome. Now that you're a 250K winner,
• 2:37
  maybe you can invest into those fruity Tootsie Rolls and we call
• 2:40
  them Danish rolls or something like that.
• 2:43
  It's listen, Matt, I mean, it's incredible.
• 2:46
  The story niffing told us a little bit about you.
• 2:48
  We weren't at Fanatic Fest. I was on a yacht almost, you
• 2:51
  know, getting arrested over there and you know, Bermuda,
• 2:54
  that's a whole nother story. I don't want to get into that.
• 2:56
  What was it like getting a chance to face off with one of
• 3:00
  the greatest quarterbacks to ever play the game?
• 3:04
  Honestly, I didn't know what I was getting myself into.
• 3:07
  You know, Brady, he, he stepped it up.
• 3:09
  He he obviously took first place, but just being amongst
• 3:12
  everybody there, I mean Michael Rubin, the guys that he's able
• 3:15
  to bring into that event, there's just, you know, All
• 3:18
  Stars everywhere in that venue. So you know, you just kind of
• 3:21
  got to stay level headed the best you can and the mental side
• 3:24
  of it definitely played a big part.
• 3:26
  You didn't you didn't worry about James Harden's beard
• 3:29
  getting in the way of things or or you know, LeBron James
• 3:31
  watching over you and saying LJALJA come and play for the
• 3:36
  LJA. You know, LeBron James
• 3:37
  association. We all know that.
• 3:39
  Is there anything that really scared you when you had to go
• 3:42
  face off against some of these superstar athletes and and and
• 3:46
  guys that you just come to respect multi millionaires out
• 3:50
  there trying to beat? Oh, just Matthew Dennisch.
• 3:53
  Yes, unfortunately it was a, it was a three day event and you
• 3:56
  either went Friday, Saturday or Sunday.
• 3:59
  And so it's all kind of like spaced out through the day.
• 4:01
  And I was fortunate enough to go kind of early on Friday.
• 4:06
  So I posted my, my score and I was actually #1 after I went, so
• 4:10
  kind of hung out there for a while and I didn't really have
• 4:13
  to stress about the other guys being around.
• 4:15
  And I think that kind of paid a low advantage.
• 4:18
  And then of course, Tom Brady passed me on Friday and then
• 4:21
  Justin Gaichi passed me on Saturday.
• 4:23
  So if there was any voted that you competed against, was there
• 4:25
  anyone you were like, oh, I have to beat this guy?
• 4:28
  This is the one I want to take down the most.
• 4:30
  Who wasn't? In my promo video, I called out
• 4:33
  Brady and I was, you know, hoping to be able to take him
• 4:36
  down. I'm an Eagles fan, so, you know,
• 4:39
  had a little history there with Tom.
• 4:42
  Unfortunately, turns out he's a pretty nice guy, so he treated
• 4:45
  me very well up on stage, backstage and everything.
• 4:48
  But yeah, he was the one guy I was going after and of course
• 4:51
  he's the GOAT and came out on top.
• 4:52
  Hold on, don't there's a guy named Joe Montana?
• 4:56
  Don't forget, I think you're too young to get a chance to
• 4:59
  remember a guy like Joe Montana. Okay, good job.
• 5:02
  I'm sorry, I'm sorry to cut. No, well, so Matt, kind of like
• 5:05
  for people that don't know what it is, give them like a like a
• 5:08
  breakdown of like how you got involved or like what is it?
• 5:11
  Because it was I mean, we we were involved, but I think
• 5:14
  there's a lot of people that kind of heard what happened and,
• 5:17
  you know, obviously I feel like this is going to grow.
• 5:19
  So like get like how how you got involved, how you knew and what
• 5:22
  you had to do to like get get to their.
• 5:24
  It, it's going to be scary the growth that comes from this
• 5:27
  thing because this was only year two.
• 5:29
  It was the very first year that average Joes like myself to
• 5:32
  participate. They had a little bit of that
• 5:34
  part last year, but you know, it's Michael Rubin.
• 5:36
  He's running his business, his Fanatics brand, and he's really
• 5:39
  pushing like the card sales and the venue.
• 5:42
  It's enormous. The Javits Center in New York
• 5:44
  City. You can't describe how big this
• 5:47
  place is. So it's spread out all through.
• 5:49
  You have vendors everywhere, all these events set up.
• 5:54
  So yeah, just, you know, the whole reason I got into this was
• 5:56
  social media and I'm not big on it.
• 5:58
  I don't post much. I do now, now that I've had the
• 6:01
  success. I made a little page for myself.
• 6:03
  But, you know, as far as entering it, Michael Rubin had
• 6:08
  stuff from from Fanatics and being a Sixers fan and he was
• 6:11
  kind of, you know, part of that a few years ago, just kind of
• 6:15
  follow him and he, he promoted it really well.
• 6:18
  So it had this whole thing and said, you know, come out, try to
• 6:21
  participate in these events and go against the pros.
• 6:23
  And that really intrigued me. I've been an athlete my whole
• 6:25
  life and I saw the little glimpses of the different
• 6:29
  events. I didn't know how it was going
• 6:30
  to be run, but basketball, baseball, football, you know,
• 6:33
  everything that I can do, I was like, you know, why not?
• 6:35
  They had the prizes of course listed and that was a little
• 6:37
  intriguing as well. So we are talking to Matthew
• 6:39
  Dennisch, a fan who won third place in Fanatic Fest this year,
• 6:43
  and I want to say something, and I don't know if anybody knows
• 6:46
  this. Tom Brady was actually a really
• 6:47
  good baseball player, so he could have actually play
• 6:51
  professional baseball. He chose the right sport.
• 6:53
  Obviously. I don't think he could argue
• 6:55
  that he did. And he he's going to go down, if
• 6:57
  not the greatest, the second greatest.
• 6:59
  I mean, you can argue and I know everybody calls him the code.
• 7:01
  I'm not, I'm a, I'm a jet, AKA I'm not.
• 7:05
  I know you're going to like this.
• 7:06
  I'm also an Eagles fan. I grew up a Donovan McNabb fan
• 7:10
  over the years he played when he played for Syracuse, when he was
• 7:12
  drafted by the Eagles. I fell in love with Donovan and
• 7:16
  and I actually worked with him at a couple of events and and
• 7:19
  got to experience hanging out with him.
• 7:21
  So I I love Donovan. So I root on the Eagles when The
• 7:24
  Jets suck, which is usually all the time, I root on the Eagles
• 7:28
  and they won the Super Bowl this year.
• 7:29
  I was very happy they screwed the Giants.
• 7:31
  Sticking it to the Giants after landing Saquon Barkley and
• 7:34
  giving it to him as Fish is sitting there probably mumbling
• 7:37
  you ass. But nevertheless, I I will say
• 7:40
  this. I've never got a chance to go to
• 7:42
  fanatic fest because this year I was on I was on a boat and like
• 7:46
  I said, I almost got arrested. But over the years, if this is
• 7:50
  the second year, Michael Rubin has been one of the more
• 7:54
  respectable, you know, money makers when it comes to selling
• 7:58
  hats and you know, shirts and all these different sports
• 8:01
  memorabilia. He has been fantastic.
• 8:04
  He's made his billions off of it out of his car.
• 8:06
  What was it like actually hanging out with a guy like
• 8:10
  Michael Rubin? I mean, I, I, I've, I've heard
• 8:14
  through the Grapevine, he's not a big guy, but very smart, very
• 8:17
  educated. He is a big Philadelphia fan.
• 8:20
  He's from the Philadelphia area. As a matter of fact, he's the
• 8:23
  one that was pushing to get Meek Mills out of out of jail.
• 8:26
  If you don't know that story, what is it like hanging out with
• 8:30
  a guy like Michael Rubin? So I was actually at that game
• 8:33
  when Meek Mill flew in on the helicopter on the sixth season
• 8:35
  ticket holder. So actually, you know, like
• 8:38
  there he is just showing up to the game.
• 8:41
  But man, Michael Rubin, I'm 6 foot 6.
• 8:43
  So yeah, he is on the smaller side compared to me.
• 8:45
  But just his energy. I mean, I was just blown away
• 8:49
  every time you see him, every time I interacted with him, he
• 8:51
  was so genuine, so passionate, like coming up to me, talking to
• 8:54
  me. But he just, he moves so fast
• 8:57
  and he just, it's no surprise he's as successful as he is.
• 9:00
  It was just how I was like, how does this guy do this non-stop?
• 9:05
  I saw some interviews he said leading up to it, this is the
• 9:08
  hardest event for him to run. It's like the most time
• 9:10
  consuming and exhausting event. But you can see why.
• 9:15
  Like, you know, just everything that they have there and he is
• 9:18
  everywhere. And that's the thing about this
• 9:19
  event. It's awesome.
• 9:20
  You see people running all over the place.
• 9:22
  Like the one time I was standing there like why are there 50
• 9:25
  people walking that way? Was Tom Brady going down the the
• 9:28
  escalator? So it's just, you know, people
• 9:31
  are around constantly. It's just this very immersive
• 9:35
  event that he he's trying to build and they went from I think
• 9:38
  80,000 year 1 to 125 year 2. You know, it's it's so funny.
• 9:42
  He has all these events. He has the 4th of July party,
• 9:45
  which he threw this year again in the Hamptons, the White Party
• 9:48
  where only movie stars in big names.
• 9:50
  Jabba wasn't invited. And when am I getting invited to
• 9:52
  one of those parties, Michael? I mean, I should be there.
• 9:55
  I should be the first person you invite and the last person to,
• 9:58
  you know, get sent home. But you know, I'm not hanging
• 10:00
  out with Diddy as the Diddler did his things.
• 10:02
  I'm I'm going to go off that one and and kind of flip to the
• 10:05
  other one. But the fact is I think Mike and
• 10:08
  Michael Rubin is a very unique individual.
• 10:11
  He understands how to bring people together.
• 10:14
  You also understand how to sell a product that was really sold
• 10:20
  through the back of his car. He actually promoted his
• 10:23
  products and, and making his own hats, his own shirts in the back
• 10:27
  of his car. As we've seen many different
• 10:29
  millionaires and billionaires make their money in their
• 10:32
  backyard or make it in their garage.
• 10:34
  Michael Rubin did out of the, the back of his car.
• 10:36
  So I, I think it's a, a unique story and I, that's something
• 10:39
  that if I ever got Michael Rubin on the show, The one thing I
• 10:42
  would ask Michael Rubin is out of all the different people
• 10:45
  you've worked with and on obviously billionaires and
• 10:47
  millionaires, that when it comes to athletes and just business
• 10:50
  owners, who was the guy that really stood out from you the
• 10:53
  most? What, what, what guy gave you
• 10:55
  the most information as, as a guy that has developed the
• 10:59
  product from nothing to something as as you've seen
• 11:02
  Michael Rubin do? That's my question.
• 11:04
  So I mean, Tom Brady, I I've been around Tom Brady.
• 11:08
  I've been around all these guys. Is there one guy out there right
• 11:12
  now? If you saw him face to face
• 11:14
  where you just like, Oh my God, Oh my God, look, Oh my God, it's
• 11:17
  Donovan McNabb. I don't know what I what what
• 11:20
  should I say to him? You know what?
• 11:21
  Is there anybody out there that you just got starstruck?
• 11:26
  I mean, to be honest, when I was backstage with Brady and them,
• 11:30
  it wasn't really starstruck, which kind of surprised me.
• 11:33
  I know everyone looking from the outside like, you know, how are
• 11:36
  you so calm and everything with those guys?
• 11:39
  I don't know, it's just my personality, but I don't think
• 11:42
  there is anyone that would be really awesome to meet.
• 11:44
  Some people like Joel Embiid or something, be cool to just kind
• 11:48
  of see him on in a different side.
• 11:49
  But I think just. Matt, there's nobody, there's
• 11:54
  nobody out there right now. If you were standing right next
• 11:57
  to him, you wouldn't be like, Oh my God, I'm, I'm, I'm having a
• 12:02
  conversation with this guy. There's nobody, nobody.
• 12:05
  I. Don't know, maybe the Kelsey
• 12:07
  brothers. They're pretty OK.
• 12:08
  All right, all. Right, we got something out of
• 12:11
  Matt. Something.
• 12:11
  There you go all. Right.
• 12:12
  Not supplying for new heights as we speak.
• 12:14
  All right, I want to I want to shift gears that there was a
• 12:18
  big, obviously the big one of the big trades that broke in the
• 12:20
  NBA offseason was Kevin Durant to the Rockets literally while
• 12:24
  he was there. What was the crowd vibe like
• 12:26
  from that and the reaction from him when when they found out?
• 12:30
  Well, they, I don't know if you saw the special they just
• 12:31
  streamed or had on ESPN the other night, but they broke it
• 12:36
  down by segments and had, you know, had his reaction.
• 12:39
  And I was kind of in the midst of doing my stuff when it
• 12:43
  happened. So I didn't really get to see
• 12:44
  everything that was on stage. That's kind of the cool thing
• 12:46
  was like just off on the side and you hear about it like just
• 12:50
  how he was totally shocked and going back and watching that
• 12:52
  special and, and seeing him, it's like he did, he didn't
• 12:55
  know. Like it was just totally he was
• 12:58
  finding out the same time everybody else found out.
• 13:01
  I want to I want to know. All right, They they asked this
• 13:04
  other corny stuff. OK, what's been the perks of of
• 13:08
  of Yeah, you're corny corn. We we want to know.
• 13:12
  Obviously we knew the 250. It's coming from a guy that has
• 13:14
  a beard. You.
• 13:15
  Know and coming from a guy who lives in a state with corn.
• 13:19
  Like that's my choice. Pass.
• 13:22
  Liquor. I can't.
• 13:23
  I can't tell where my I was born at.
• 13:25
  Not like. Jabba likes my shrimp cocktail.
• 13:28
  Shut up, Nathan. But what like the perch?
• 13:32
  Do you get to go back next year? Is there stuff like with
• 13:35
  fanatics that that you're doing now or like what comes along
• 13:39
  with all of that afterwards? Like I think that's the cool
• 13:41
  part of like getting people involved.
• 13:43
  It's not just a one and done. Is there a bunch of other stuff
• 13:46
  or like what has been some of the perks that you've noticed or
• 13:50
  that have come your way since since all this went down?
• 13:54
  That is a good question. Yeah.
• 13:55
  So that's the first time none of you got good questions so slow.
• 13:59
  My back out. You know, it's been a learning
• 14:02
  process for me for sure. I've never been a part of
• 14:05
  anything like this. I'm a teacher at a high school
• 14:08
  and, you know, our days are kind of, you know, the same pretty
• 14:11
  much day in, day out. So part of the reason I got into
• 14:15
  this is just branching out. I like to find other things that
• 14:17
  excite me. So I didn't know how to handle
• 14:21
  everything. When I was finished and was up
• 14:22
  on stage with all this stuff happened so quickly afterwards,
• 14:26
  of course, you know, I started to get some contacts with PR
• 14:28
  people and finance side of things and just a whole
• 14:32
  different world than I'm used to as far as education.
• 14:36
  So yeah, of course I really haven't said no.
• 14:39
  That was kind of my thing, like don't say no to anything.
• 14:41
  Just kind of see what opportunities open up.
• 14:44
  It has been a lot of media been over like 30, some 40 some
• 14:47
  interviews just talking to different media outlets.
• 14:50
  The half company Noggin boss give them a shout out.
• 14:54
  That was the one that they sought me out when I arrived on
• 14:58
  Sunday and had a good idea that I was going to win third place.
• 15:03
  So they, I didn't know it, but they just saw me and came up to
• 15:06
  me and I was just watching the golf event take place.
• 15:09
  And they asked me what my favorite team was.
• 15:12
  And they want to send me one of their big hats.
• 15:15
  And I said I was a Birds fan. And they said, well, we got one
• 15:17
  right here in our hand. Why don't you just take this
• 15:19
  one? So it's just all natural.
• 15:20
  And I was like, I got to wear this up on stage.
• 15:22
  So I wore it on stage. And if you saw the pictures
• 15:25
  there, it just kind of made a statement.
• 15:27
  So they've been working with me a little bit, making some videos
• 15:31
  for them. They're going to send me some
• 15:32
  more hats and that kind of thing.
• 15:34
  But you know, fanatics, you know, they haven't said
• 15:38
  officially if I'm going to come back or not next year.
• 15:40
  You are. I don't know when it is there,
• 15:42
  but I would hope they would. No, listen, if if Michael Rubin
• 15:47
  doesn't have you back, then Michael Rubin's a little blind,
• 15:50
  but Michael Rubin is a businessman and he knows that
• 15:52
  you're going to be a draw. And now for all the things that
• 15:55
  you have had opportunities to do since that, I think it's going
• 15:59
  to open up optional, you know, you know, different competitions
• 16:03
  that you could join and not just the Michael Rubin fanatic.
• 16:06
  They'll they'll be optional. You know, summer, I don't know,
• 16:11
  there might be something out there where they're going to be
• 16:13
  other athletes saying, you know what, I can, I could beat
• 16:15
  Matthew, Matthew Denish at this. Let let's set something up and
• 16:18
  and you're going to have an opportunity to win some more
• 16:20
  money because, you know, guys like James Harden, who I I think
• 16:23
  is an airhead, will probably get so jealous or is probably so
• 16:27
  jealous of you because he couldn't get over the hump
• 16:30
  where, you know, he might want to beat you or try to beat you
• 16:33
  at something because he can beat you there.
• 16:35
  So I, I think there are a lot of crazy athletes out there
• 16:38
  thinking, Hey, you know what, Matthew Denish is lucky.
• 16:40
  Matthew Denish doesn't really have any athletic ability.
• 16:44
  Who the hell is Matthew Denish? Well, Matthew Dennis is a guy
• 16:47
  that just won 250K. He's making, you know,
• 16:50
  endorsement deals. And now by the way, I don't know
• 16:53
  what his Instagram has. He's got 10,000 people following
• 16:56
  him just because of a damn game at Fanatic Fest.
• 16:59
  But listen, Matt, we love you man.
• 17:02
  Congratulations dude. I appreciate it was awesome.
• 17:05
  Yes, And by the way, a smile of, you know, Tom Brady handing you
• 17:10
  a pile of money should be something that you can celebrate
• 17:13
  forever because you are a Philadelphia Eagle fan.
• 17:16
  And who beat, yes, Tom Brady in the Super Bowl.
• 17:19
  That's right, the Philadelphia Eagles.
• 17:21
  And I remember Nick Foles, the MVP.
• 17:24
  Who would have thought that? Yeah, that's who I want to talk
• 17:26
  to. I want to get Nick Foles on this
• 17:27
  show. I want to tell Nick, what was it
• 17:29
  like kicking? You know what's you know, But at
• 17:32
  the Super Bowl, even though Tom Brady had his best Super Bowl
• 17:35
  against the Eagles, if you remember.
• 17:36
  He just can't catch the ball. What are you trying to do, Fish?
• 17:41
  You're trying to get me in trouble here anyways.
• 17:44
  You know, Matt, what was it, first of all, when Nathan
• 17:47
  reached out to you and asked you to come on the show?
• 17:49
  Have you ever heard of our show, by the way?
• 17:51
  Have you ever heard of this show?
• 17:53
  I have not my one cousin guy give him a shout out.
• 17:59
  Wayne, he's up. He's a New Yorker.
• 18:01
  And when I said Jabba Chamberlain, he goes, oh, man,
• 18:05
  there's a name. So yeah, he he actually came
• 18:08
  down to the event and he's a big Yankees fan, but he support me.
• 18:13
  He wore a Phillies hat. He bought 1 hopping off the the
• 18:16
  train station. He he that.
• 18:18
  That was probably tough for him. That was probably tough.
• 18:21
  Oh, it was. It was all black.
• 18:23
  It wasn't. For sure.
• 18:26
  But man, he showed up, had some energy.
• 18:27
  It was just great to have someone from the the local area
• 18:30
  to to support me up there. But yeah.
• 18:33
  You know, you know, Matt, you know what's really interesting,
• 18:35
  if you never got a chance to see it now that you've become a fan
• 18:38
  of the show, is actually C Jabba wearing a onesie.
• 18:41
  That, ladies and gentlemen, is one of the ugliest things to
• 18:44
  look at. This guy, when he started on
• 18:47
  this show, during the winter time, he would wear a onesie
• 18:50
  every other show, a different color, different weird onesie.
• 18:54
  And this guy is like a onesie phenomenon.
• 18:56
  We should actually hook up with a sponsor that's like a onesie
• 19:00
  company. And forever, forever lazy.com.
• 19:02
  That's all I that's all I wear so.
• 19:04
  Why don't we reach out to Forever Lazy?
• 19:06
  But Matthew, maybe we set something up and we get you in
• 19:09
  the studio, or maybe we'll do something together.
• 19:12
  We'll cut up this interview. You can post it up on your
• 19:15
  social media. And we want you to be a fan.
• 19:17
  We want you to promote us just as much as we'll promote you.
• 19:21
  I will be well. Matt, will you give everybody to
• 19:24
  like your social just on like, you know, things that you're
• 19:27
  doing, whether it's IG, Twitter, I know Fish probably put your IG
• 19:30
  up, but just for everybody to hear it.
• 19:33
  Yeah, so it's just Average Joe under score Dennis, my last name
• 19:37
  and just been posting stuff like leading up to the event and some
• 19:42
  of the interviews I've done. Just kind of given an inside
• 19:44
  glimpse if people want to do this and apply for the event.
• 19:47
  Kind of what it takes and the mentality side of things which
• 19:50
  you have because a lot of people can, you know, throw some, you
• 19:53
  know, football, baseball, but my kind of start to finish of a
• 19:56
  little bit of like a cheat code of my mental side of things
• 20:00
  that's kind of posted on there as well.
• 20:01
  Why don't you try? Why don't you try the hot dog
• 20:04
  eating contest next year for 4th of July?
• 20:06
  That would be cool. But he was there.
• 20:08
  He was doing the chicken eating contest.
• 20:12
  Yeah, wasn't it the, wasn't it raising canes or whatever it
• 20:15
  was? Yeah, raising Canes.
• 20:16
  And then there was like a team of four, like Libby Dunn was
• 20:19
  there, Michael Rubin did it, but they had like 4 verse Joey and
• 20:22
  Joey's still 1. Well, we saw Joey Chestnuts at
• 20:25
  Oh well, chestnut or he might have nuts or maybe one nut.
• 20:29
  Speedy's got one, but we saw him at the Super Bowl at Radio Row,
• 20:32
  So and we're we're working on getting him on the show.
• 20:35
  That would be really, really cool.
• 20:36
  Joey's he's a great personnel. Everything that he does right
• 20:40
  now off air and he stands for a lot for some average Joe person
• 20:45
  like you to to do what he has done over the years and make hot
• 20:49
  dog eating a sport and a sport that really center stage what
• 20:54
  eating. Really eating as a whole.
• 20:57
  I mean, just it's eating has become a sport.
• 21:00
  I mean, you. I would love to see that in the
• 21:02
  Olympics. Why not?
• 21:03
  You have. All these Major League eating.
• 21:06
  Now let's see that in the Olympics.
• 21:08
  Why not? I mean all these guys.
• 21:10
  They have walking. Yeah, well, they have
• 21:12
  everything. They had break dancing this past
• 21:15
  year. They're going to have EA, you
• 21:18
  know, E sports, E sports soon for video games.
• 21:21
  So why not have hot dog eating or just eating?
• 21:25
  There's a guy that ate beans. I don't remember what it was.
• 21:28
  What was it, 100 cans of beans? And like, oh, yeah, I did hear
• 21:30
  about that. Like, like in a minute and 30
• 21:32
  seconds. There's some.
• 21:33
  Crazy. You can.
• 21:34
  You can go. You can go to Major League
• 21:36
  eating and it gives you all of the records like like 108
• 21:40
  deviled eggs in like 8 minutes or something.
• 21:42
  It's crazy. Could you imagine me eat like
• 21:44
  100 cans of beans and how many times or how how bad my farts
• 21:48
  would be? I mean I my my farts don't
• 21:51
  smell. Yeah, that'll be the test for
• 21:52
  you. Could you actually?
• 21:53
  Could you smell? Maple farts coming out of my
• 21:56
  rear end. I mean, I, I want to try
• 21:57
  something. I don't know if you've ever
• 21:58
  watched a show, Matt, I, I put, you know, Icy hot on my scrotum
• 22:03
  for 10 minutes. I broke a Gators book of world
• 22:05
  records and I'm I want to do something else.
• 22:07
  I want to light a match, you know, and fart and see if it
• 22:12
  actually, I've heard stories that if you fart and because of
• 22:15
  the gas that comes out of your ass, it can light the, you know,
• 22:18
  light it on fire. I want to.
• 22:19
  Try that on. It's called.
• 22:20
  It's called methane gas, yes. OK, so I want to try it on
• 22:23
  National Honor Radio show and see how it works.
• 22:26
  Matt, would you actually watch the show?
• 22:28
  If I did that? I know I'd burn the hairs in my
• 22:30
  ass and whatever I have left in it, you know?
• 22:32
  You seem like a very talented, skilled man.
• 22:34
  So I I'm a little I. Think that would happen?
• 22:36
  Hey, before we let you go, Matt, was there, was there one sport
• 22:39
  that all the things you did that you surprised yourself at?
• 22:42
  Oh for sure, it was baseball. I can throw, but it was you got
• 22:47
  6 pitches and you can appreciate this.
• 22:51
  They did nine boxes within the strike zone, so.
• 22:54
  I, I saw some of the, I saw some of those athletes throw.
• 22:57
  Oh, it was rough. Well, we didn't know that the
• 23:00
  corners were five points. Oh, OK.
• 23:02
  That center was one and the other four were three points.
• 23:06
  So placing in the corners, I ended up hitting four out of my
• 23:09
  6 throws in the corner. So I ended up first place out of
• 23:13
  all 100 people and it was like Russell Wilson was there and you
• 23:16
  said Tom Brady could play baseball.
• 23:18
  Like all those guys that have that background.
• 23:20
  My that was the reason I won. Just be able to place them in
• 23:23
  the right spot. So for sure surprise myself.
• 23:26
  Where are the Yankees? Wasn't where are?
• 23:28
  The Yankees. Where are the Yankees?
• 23:30
  We need some bullpen help. Go steal Russell Wilson from the
• 23:33
  Giants. We'll take him.
• 23:37
  I'm going to lose my voice before the show's over.
• 23:39
  I'm losing it all right. Anyways, Matt, we really
• 23:43
  appreciate the time. Nathan is a big fan of yours and
• 23:46
  he was the one that helped us get you on the show.
• 23:49
  And we'd love to get you on the show again.
• 23:50
  And we'd love for you to be a fan of our show.
• 23:53
  And, and, and we're going to promote you.
• 23:55
  We have, you're the first guy that has been a part of the
• 23:58
  fanatic fest that's been on our show.
• 24:00
  And it actually means something. And I, I just wish you the best
• 24:03
  man. And and let's get you, let's get
• 24:05
  you on multiple times in the next couple of months and, and
• 24:08
  see what you're doing, see where you're at.
• 24:10
  For sure, and I appreciate this. A lot of fun, maybe you guys
• 24:14
  should attend next year. Absolutely.
• 24:16
  Well, why don't you tell Michael Rubin to actually invite us?
• 24:20
  How's that? I won't go on, you know, these
• 24:22
  boat trips during these these crazy events.
• 24:25
  I mean, I should be there. I don't know if I'd win.
• 24:27
  I'd love to see Jabba. First of all.
• 24:29
  We have a bet and this is going to happen.
• 24:31
  I have told Jabba that. Out of how many times, Speedy?
• 24:34
  I don't remember exactly. That I thought it.
• 24:36
  Was 10 times I could steal. I could steal at least once
• 24:39
  against him with a person, with a catcher and a person at the
• 24:42
  plate, and he's got a pitch against them.
• 24:44
  I could steal against them. We're going to get this going
• 24:46
  before the year is over, before the summer is over.
• 24:49
  I want to do this. We're going to meet in New
• 24:50
  Jersey or something, something. And if I win, he's got to take
• 24:54
  all of us out to a nice steak dinner.
• 24:56
  That would be great, wouldn't it?
• 24:57
  And we'll bring you. How about that?
• 24:58
  You could come and watch us. You could be a spectator because
• 25:01
  you live. Over.
• 25:02
  Oh yeah, winner. Winner has to take.
• 25:04
  Everybody to dinner. Everybody to dinner.
• 25:05
  Yeah, absolutely. Absolutely.
• 25:08
  And hey, Matt, Matt, I don't know if you just read this, but
• 25:11
  Nathan said he's going to enter the Fanatics games next all.
• 25:14
  Right, Nathan, you're going to compete in your blue blazer.
• 25:16
  Oh, please. I He posted up a picture, a
• 25:19
  video of him throwing a football and the first thing Jabba says
• 25:23
  is you got to work on your undercarriage.
• 25:26
  Yeah, work on that lower arrow question.
• 25:28
  Which athlete would be best? Significant.
• 25:30
  Blue Blazer. OH, hey, fish.
• 25:32
  Matt. Matt, have you seen this outfit
• 25:34
  that Nitin rocks in this famous blue blazer that he has his
• 25:38
  fish. If you can pull this.
• 25:40
  He posted this and he was so excited.
• 25:42
  But this outfit was rough. And you as a teacher, you
• 25:46
  probably see granted PE, but you probably see in the hallway some
• 25:50
  some crazy outfits. This this was this was rough,
• 25:55
  man. Yeah, and we want to.
• 25:59
  He wears it everywhere, so we're trying to get him to have all
• 26:01
  the athletes like sign it and that'd be sweet and he could
• 26:04
  wear it to all these events. Yes.
• 26:07
  I think it's it's so close to his heart.
• 26:09
  I don't think he can. Do it.
• 26:10
  I think he's lost. I think he really wants to
• 26:13
  believe that this blazer makes him the sexiest man alive.
• 26:16
  I really do believe. And he wears these cargo pants,
• 26:20
  these. Cargo camo pants?
• 26:23
  Yes, exactly. And a red shirt, a red like a
• 26:27
  polo shirt under it. It is it.
• 26:29
  Is the best luck. It is the best luck.
• 26:31
  It's definitely something that really stands for Nathan and his
• 26:34
  personality. Do we have that fish?
• 26:36
  Are we getting that up? He says he lost it.
• 26:39
  Oh, he lost it. Oh, that sucks.
• 26:40
  We'll send that to you, Matt. We'll send that.
• 26:42
  To you. Yeah, we'll send it.
• 26:43
  Absolutely. It's something to definitely
• 26:44
  look at, but. Could any of you guys pull it
• 26:46
  off? I think I could.
• 26:50
  Got the real question Who Who be able to win a competition the
• 26:52
  best of the Blue Blazer? You know, it's weird because I'm
• 26:55
  a very particular fashion person, so I don't know if I
• 26:59
  would even be caught dead with any of those colors.
• 27:02
  But Nathan is one of those unique individuals that will
• 27:07
  wear anything and be anything at any time.
• 27:11
  So including this, yes, it is definitely a unique look and
• 27:17
  something that you probably would never see anybody wear but
• 27:19
  him. But nevertheless, I don't think
• 27:22
  it would fit you. That blue blazer, you're 66.
• 27:24
  Forget it. That blazer wouldn't even fit on
• 27:27
  your your half your body. I mean, look at Nathan.
• 27:29
  He's 5 foot 6. He's got a great personality.
• 27:32
  There's no question that he does.
• 27:33
  And that's why everybody loves him.
• 27:34
  He's like a little cute Oompa Loompa.
• 27:36
  You know, like a Smurf. Hey, where's the blue?
• 27:39
  Where's the Smurf? Anyways, Matt, we love you.
• 27:42
  Keep up the good work bud. Appreciate it.
• 27:45
  Much appreciated, you guys are awesome.
• 27:47
  Matthew Danish. I got his name right, ladies.
• 27:50
  I called him a Danish. But hey, I like Danish.
• 27:53
  Just speedy. You like danishes, some flavors.
• 27:55
  I like cinnamon. You like those cinnamon muffins?
• 27:58
  Those are good. I absolutely like that, but.
• 28:02
  You guys are spoiled up there though because you guys get good
• 28:04
  bakeries. We do got like maybe 1.
• 28:08
  That's true, I definitely could say that we are spoiled when it
• 28:11
  comes to the bakeries and the cakes.
• 28:12
  By the way, King Cullen was closed down over here in Seldon.
• 28:15
  So how many King Cullen's are getting closed down?
• 28:17
  I love King Cullen's bakery and I'm promoting them.
• 28:21
  Yes, King Cullen, you should be promoting our show.
• 28:24
  So you got to watch, you got to watch your blood sugar, damn it.
• 28:27
  I, I should. No, no, that's not, that's not
• 28:29
  mine. It's my A1C, ladies and
• 28:31
  gentlemen. Or whatever it is.
• 28:32
  I'm pre diabetic as we all know but guys guess what it's been 12
• 28:37
  or 30 14 days without a sugar drink.
• 28:39
  So I've been sticking to Mio and water and I am doing a good job.
• 28:43
  So shout out to fish for giving me some advice and staying out
• 28:47
  of sugar trouble. Anyways I had I had Pizza Hut
• 28:50
  last night I had to I was hungry.
• 28:52
  I was at the mechanic shop for six hours.
• 28:55
  My friend it took him 3 hours to look at my car and he found
• 28:59
  thank God the the advance auto. I'm giving another shout out to
• 29:02
  Advance Auto Actually got had the parts that I needed to fix
• 29:06
  my car. So shout out to Advance Auto for
• 29:08
  saving my life. I was going to read some pics
• 29:10
  from Wes. He had three picks in the CFL
• 29:12
  this week. He's got Saskatchewan, they play
• 29:14
  tomorrow at home -4 1/2 against the Calgary Stampeders.
• 29:18
  Saturday night, January 7:00 he's got or Sunday night I
• 29:23
  should say, BC -2 1/2 they're playing on the road at Edmonton.
• 29:27
  That's Sunday at 7:00. And then on Saturday night the
• 29:30
  Ottawa Red Blacks covering plus 5 1/2 on the road against the
• 29:34
  Hamilton Tiger. Just so you guys know how on
• 29:36
  point he is when it comes to the CFL, since he started, the
• 29:41
  season has started he's been 81%.
• 29:44
  So I he is on point with the Canadian Football League.
• 29:48
  So if you guys, I know, I know somebody that doesn't like it
• 29:51
  and that is the one and only call as I got a drop for him.
• 29:55
  Here it is. Carl plays with himself as.
• 29:57
  We all know Carl plays with himself.
• 29:59
  Carl will also never appreciate W because W did say like one
• 30:03
  team you'll never bet on. It's Michigan.
• 30:04
  Either that's true too. And and and I don't blame him
• 30:07
  because besides the national championship that they won with
• 30:10
  Jim Harbaugh before he, you know, decided to flee and go to
• 30:14
  go to the Chargers. Well, ladies and gentlemen, the
• 30:17
  old and the only thing our friend Carl could say is, oh,
• 30:21
  they didn't cheat. That was fair.
• 30:23
  I by the way, I don't, I don't think Michigan should have got
• 30:27
  in trouble as much as they did in the way that all happened.
• 30:30
  But that's a whole nother story. Anyways, why don't we get into
• 30:32
  our next subject in our segment as we call this the whip around.
• 30:40
  Whip, whip, whip around. The whipper on.
• 30:48
  Did you like that, Speedy? That was like, I don't know
• 30:50
  what. It's a much better upgrade from
• 30:53
  your clown laugh. That laugh, that.
• 30:57
  You haven't done in the like years.
• 30:59
  Well, that was sacred, you know, That's a sacred laugh that I
• 31:02
  used on the show and it scared the shit out of everybody that
• 31:05
  listened to the show then. You started using it on Jeff and
• 31:07
  it was much better. Oh, well, Jeff is a whole
• 31:10
  another world. I mean, I wanted to you know,
• 31:12
  there was so many times that Jeff came on the show that he
• 31:14
  just pissed me off so much that we had this remember we had that
• 31:17
  picture of him sitting on a boat and like sinking.
• 31:20
  Remember that? That was great.
• 31:22
  By the way, the. Best one was the one with the
• 31:24
  beef though. Oh God, the Beaver, I got to
• 31:26
  find that. I got to find that I had I had
• 31:29
  his face on on on the beef on the Beaver and I had his mom on
• 31:34
  the other. That is great.
• 31:35
  And I actually have a picture of his mother sitting on my lap
• 31:38
  during Thanksgiving, and I posted that.
• 31:40
  That's pretty nice too. I love his mother.
• 31:42
  His mother's the best. So the bee's mother loves me and
• 31:45
  I love her, and if she wasn't married, maybe she'd be taking
• 31:48
  care of me, if you know what I mean.
• 31:50
  Anyways, let's go. We got the whip around coming up
• 31:53
  right here. We got a few stories, guys.
• 31:55
  Yes, for today, we're going to start off with the NFLPA.
• 32:01
  Now, Errol, we mentioned this a week ago and I think we were
• 32:06
  right. And we actually broke a story
• 32:07
  because the NFLPA executive director, Lloyd Howell junior,
• 32:12
  they found out that he's doing consulting work on the side for
• 32:16
  a firm that is investing in NFL ownership, meaning he's playing
• 32:22
  both sides of the fence. That's not exactly what you
• 32:25
  want. So looks like I'm still having
• 32:29
  technical difficulty. Guys, that's hard.
• 32:31
  I think I'm going to be able to fix it.
• 32:32
  All right, it's all tough. We're going to be able to get
• 32:34
  it. Well, somebody's got to get it
• 32:36
  right, Speedy. Maybe it'll be Nathan's
• 32:38
  department. Well, Nathan wears that blue
• 32:40
  blazer, so he might be a little. Lost He'll he'll get he'll get
• 32:43
  everything with the blue blazer. Well, I it'll finish it off with
• 32:47
  the leash. I mean, if I had a strap or, you
• 32:49
  know, a whip, I I wonder how Nathan would react if I.
• 32:52
  The whip is don't match for Nathan's amazing leash.
• 32:55
  I, I mean, seriously, I, I don't know if Nathan can handle the,
• 32:58
  that leash sound. If I actually put a leash on
• 33:01
  somebody that he loved, one of his loved ones, I actually took
• 33:04
  him out for a walk. It took him a stroll around the
• 33:06
  park. Nathan loves those leashes, by
• 33:08
  the way. But yeah, all.
• 33:10
  Right, looks, looks like we're working now guys.
• 33:12
  Sorry about that. That was Part 1.
• 33:15
  Nathan does love leashes. The second part of the Nathan
• 33:18
  loving leashes thingy. I guess it's not.
• 33:20
  Worth it? Let.
• 33:22
  Me pull it back up. Dodger.
• 33:24
  There is somebody duty dodging, and it might be.
• 33:27
  That's we, we got a little bit higher pixel rate, so I got to
• 33:30
  be a little bit more careful with these files guys.
• 33:32
  So we talked about last week, the collusion that was covered
• 33:35
  up by Howells NFLPA because of the Shawn Watson concept
• 33:39
  contract was all guaranteed money.
• 33:41
  And well, then the Goodell went around to everyone and tried to
• 33:44
  get them to not give out the guaranteed money.
• 33:47
  They had them dead to rights and they signed some backroom deal,
• 33:51
  Howell and Goodell, that allowed them to collude in this manner.
• 33:55
  And now we're finding out that he's also working for a
• 33:57
  consulting firm, Errol, trying to buy into NFL ownership.
• 34:02
  Why don't we start there with just how corrupt the NFL is?
• 34:07
  Well, I think all professional sports have corrupt people and
• 34:10
  Howell is just one of those people that are trying to
• 34:13
  educate you on how to screw around.
• 34:17
  Not just with the NFL and and what the NFL does behind the
• 34:20
  scenes with it when it comes to players and colluding with the
• 34:24
  ownership and the players, but also colluding with Ferns that
• 34:27
  are helping him get richer. And I'm not surprised that
• 34:31
  Howell, I don't know him personally and I don't know much
• 34:33
  about him, but the the story is, is that that this guy is under
• 34:39
  under advancing himself in many different ways with an
• 34:43
  organization like the NFL that is a multi billion dollar
• 34:46
  organization bringing in money after money and thousands and
• 34:50
  millions and trillions of dollars over the last couple of
• 34:53
  years through endorsements and and players.
• 34:56
  The players run the league, should run the league, but the
• 34:59
  owners have Rodger Goodell persuading them to believe that
• 35:04
  they are running the league. Now if the players decide to
• 35:07
  after the CBA to go on strike and and try to get more money,
• 35:11
  then the the the owners are going to have to buy into the
• 35:13
  situation for what it is. But Howell is not anything more
• 35:17
  than I believe a puppet. And I don't think Howell is the
• 35:21
  only person getting involved with this.
• 35:22
  Well, I just think he's the center stage voice of what's
• 35:25
  going on that we don't know. Speedy, they said that that this
• 35:30
  is the first time there's ever been a issue like this with the
• 35:32
  union head where he was working outside of being the union head
• 35:38
  and getting money elsewhere as far as like a salary.
• 35:42
  It seems it seems. Shady or he was the only one
• 35:44
  that got caught, right? Well, but he's like brazen and
• 35:47
  saying I'm not going to stop. You guys can say whatever you
• 35:49
  want. I'm just going to do it and make
• 35:51
  three and a half, $1,000,000 from the union to be its head
• 35:55
  while I'm working actively by the way it seems against the
• 35:59
  union. Yep, that's as corrupt as it
• 36:01
  gets. That's where you're benefiting
• 36:02
  on both sides and it gets like corrupt from an individual.
• 36:04
  Standpoint if Roger, and honestly, if Roger Goodell gives
• 36:07
  a crap, why doesn't Roger Goodell step in and do something
• 36:10
  about? It because he benefits from it
• 36:11
  just going. To say, Roger, that's why he can
• 36:13
  do it, because he's not going to stop it.
• 36:15
  Exactly there you got your own answer right there, ladies and
• 36:18
  gentlemen. So me, it's like the players,
• 36:20
  Jabba, if, if this was happening in baseball while you're still
• 36:23
  playing, wouldn't there be a revolt amongst the players and
• 36:26
  try to remove the BPA leader? Well, yeah, you look at it,
• 36:30
  yeah, both ways, too. And think about like when the
• 36:33
  scabs cross the line in the strike, like they didn't like
• 36:36
  those guys like getting jobs in baseball.
• 36:38
  And like, well, you cross the line and now you're trying to
• 36:41
  double dip because it's like, well, I'm not going to make it,
• 36:43
  but I can. I can still get paid because I'm
• 36:45
  not, you know, a lifelong big leader.
• 36:47
  You're not going to get anything.
• 36:48
  It just sucks. You put everybody kind of in a
• 36:50
  bad situation because you're really like, what the hell you
• 36:53
  do. But if you're in Goodell's
• 36:54
  pocket and still making him money, as you've seen it, the
• 36:58
  owners pay him. So if he's like, I'm still going
• 37:00
  to make my whatever the amount is and you don't care, then I
• 37:05
  guess I'll collude or whatever we call it and still do it.
• 37:09
  I mean, I guess the collusion thing made sense because the
• 37:12
  Browns contract was that stupid, right?
• 37:14
  I guess everyone's. Like it made sense.
• 37:16
  For this one, we'll collude because the Browns are stupid,
• 37:20
  but it's still real fishy, man. You know what's real fishy?
• 37:24
  Why doesn't TJ Watt have a contract and Deshaun Watson's
• 37:27
  making hundreds of millions of dollars?
• 37:30
  That's what I want. To know that that is a great
• 37:33
  question. Another great question is why
• 37:35
  did the Falcons give Kirk Cousins all this money just to
• 37:39
  draft Michael Pennix? Because on the new season of
• 37:42
  Quarterback on Netflix, which just came out this week, Errol.
• 37:45
  No, I got to check it out. Cousins admitted he was really
• 37:48
  upset by this. Didn't you say taken back?
• 37:53
  Is that what he was taken aback? Taken, which is like, which is
• 37:56
  what like older people always would say to try to be like, I'm
• 38:00
  not mad, I'm disappointed. You know, it's it's like one of
• 38:03
  those. So we got to talk about Kirk
• 38:06
  Cousins. He's I mean, they said they're
• 38:08
  not going to trade him. It just seems crazy as soon as
• 38:11
  there's the first major injury amongst quarterbacks that his
• 38:15
  name isn't going to be the one that's on the move.
• 38:17
  Well, that's why they're not going to trade him because
• 38:20
  they're, they're want, they want everybody to believe that
• 38:23
  they're going to keep him. And if anything happens to
• 38:25
  Michael Pennix, remember, Michael Pennix is a young guy.
• 38:27
  If, if he starts the season very cold or there's a little bit too
• 38:31
  much pressure on him, what are they going to do?
• 38:33
  They're going to bring Kirk Cousins in.
• 38:35
  I, I just think right now the reason why they did that was
• 38:38
  pretty specific. They were bringing in.
• 38:40
  They didn't think Michael Pennix was going to develop the way he
• 38:45
  did throughout the offseason and actually even played this year.
• 38:48
  Remember, he came back from a bad.
• 38:51
  Answer who did? Who did we have on?
• 38:53
  And he was like, why would you play panics at this point?
• 38:55
  Like it's just going to tell you.
• 38:56
  To Ovi. Ovi.
• 38:59
  And then literally the next, I wasn't the, I think it was the
• 39:02
  next week, right? Two weeks.
• 39:04
  Later from when we had him on, Yeah, yeah.
• 39:06
  I just, I actually believe that nobody thought Michael Pennix
• 39:09
  was going to be ready this year and he was working to come back
• 39:13
  as quick as he possibly can. And again, Atlanta, nobody would
• 39:16
  have thought that at one point Michael Pennix, some people
• 39:19
  didn't even think was a first round draft back that he was
• 39:22
  going to fall into the early second round.
• 39:24
  But then obviously Atlanta loved him.
• 39:27
  They loved the interview that he had.
• 39:29
  He's a big team leader, a guy that really has a great arm and
• 39:33
  he showed it at some point to this this past season.
• 39:36
  But again, he's a young guy and Atlanta is is a team that is
• 39:40
  trying to find a spark, a team that had Ryan there, who is
• 39:44
  going to be Maddie Ice, who is going to be a Hall of Famer.
• 39:47
  And and they wanted another face to that organization, an owner
• 39:51
  that was looking for another face to that organization.
• 39:53
  Kirk Cousins was not. It's going to be that face.
• 39:56
  And I think Kirk Cousins was upset the fact that him and I
• 40:00
  think Kirk Cousin wanted to go over there to Atlanta because
• 40:02
  his wife's family is from that Atlanta, from the Atlanta area.
• 40:06
  So that I don't think it was necessarily why he was getting
• 40:10
  paid. He did get his money.
• 40:12
  But Kirk Cousins has to understand it's this is a young
• 40:15
  man's sport. And Michael Pennis is that next
• 40:18
  big thing for the Atlanta Falcons besides Acunia.
• 40:23
  Is there anybody from in Atlanta right now that really stands?
• 40:26
  And don't say Trey Young. No Michael Pennix is the next
• 40:29
  big star in Atlanta, and they're in Atlanta and the Falcons are
• 40:32
  going to try to put him center stage as fast as they possibly
• 40:36
  can. Why?
• 40:37
  To sell tickets and sell jerseys.
• 40:40
  That's what they're there for, to make moolah.
• 40:42
  And nobody wants a car. Cottage, Jersey.
• 40:45
  Yeah, it's also a bit of problem the last couple years too, even
• 40:48
  getting the fans from what they were when even with the
• 40:50
  futuristic stadium they have post Georgia Dome era because
• 40:53
  they haven't won much but and Georgia with their success in
• 40:56
  college football, it's kind of outdone them at Mercedes-Benz
• 40:59
  Stadium. So so they definitely need a
• 41:00
  spark now obviously keeping him on the roster, but mainly for
• 41:03
  cap situation where they can't move him for any good value.
• 41:06
  So you might as well keep him. And the other thing, even if
• 41:08
  Panics doesn't struggle, he still might get hurt.
• 41:10
  He had two major injuries in college too, so it's another
• 41:13
  thing to consider. Don't you think that it's a
• 41:16
  fireable offense to tie up $40 million in cap on a backup
• 41:20
  quarterback? Of course.
• 41:22
  What are you? Doing I say Terry Potnow is a
• 41:24
  great GM. But like, to me, that's a
• 41:26
  fireable offense, Jabba, if you were paying.
• 41:29
  But this like when they paid, you know, Jacoby Ellsbury, all
• 41:33
  that money not to play it. It's the equivalent, isn't?
• 41:36
  It yeah, I mean, but it's it's usually usually not that usually
• 41:40
  you're getting those guys that you're still paying, you know, 3
• 41:42
  to 5 million any I get you taking a back, but then you can
• 41:49
  you still want to have somebody and and Kirk Cousins, I wouldn't
• 41:53
  say is Doo Doo magoo. He's serviceable.
• 41:56
  That's a good. One and you and you have
• 41:59
  somebody that can step in for if if Penny concerts like Speedy
• 42:03
  said he's had he's had some serious injuries before.
• 42:06
  So he's thrown to that. So I don't but to have that
• 42:11
  amount of money as a backup quarterback fish.
• 42:13
  I agree. Like it's you kind of got to
• 42:15
  shake your head first of all, what really is like your
• 42:18
  direction? What is your direction?
• 42:19
  I disagree with you guys because Atlanta's trying to go young
• 42:22
  right now and they didn't. They're not using their money
• 42:26
  anywhere else. They drafted 2 defensive
• 42:28
  lineman. They're not going.
• 42:30
  They're not bringing in veteran guys that they're going to
• 42:32
  overpay. And Kirk Cousins is, I believe,
• 42:35
  a piece that they're going to move.
• 42:37
  They could say whatever they want.
• 42:38
  The whole point of bring Kirk Cousins in in is because he
• 42:41
  wanted the money and they knew that Michael Pennix was probably
• 42:45
  going to be ready the second year and they were going to use
• 42:47
  him as trade bait. And right now, if you were to
• 42:49
  ask me right now who is the best available quarterback if need
• 42:54
  be, it's Kirk Cousins. It's not even an argument.
• 42:57
  So I think the fact is Atlanta looked at Kirk Cousins as a
• 43:01
  trade ship one way or another in the four years or the three
• 43:05
  years that he signed to go over there to Atlanta.
• 43:07
  I don't think it was a bad move. I don't think it was a smart
• 43:10
  move. I just think that Kirk Cousins
• 43:12
  was either going to take that money or he was going to go
• 43:14
  somewhere else where he's going to get paid.
• 43:16
  Somebody was paying him. Atlanta just thought, hey, you
• 43:18
  know what? We need a starting quarterback
• 43:20
  at least one year. Let's go after the best one that
• 43:22
  was available. I don't know it to me, like at
• 43:26
  $40 million, that's a bunch of pieces that would make your team
• 43:29
  better. Daniel Jones made 40 million.
• 43:31
  That's not a lot of. And see how good the Giants
• 43:34
  were. Well.
• 43:34
  I again, I'm, I'm looking at the facts here.
• 43:38
  Kirk Cousins before last year was a pretty good quarterback
• 43:41
  before he he tore his Achilles. As a matter of fact, if you look
• 43:44
  at his numbers, you would say that he was amongst the top ten
• 43:48
  in the league. I disagree.
• 43:49
  He was one of the worst quarterbacks.
• 43:51
  In football, last. Year.
• 43:52
  He tore his The Killers before the season.
• 43:53
  I'm not talking about last year, I'm talking about 23 after the
• 43:57
  fact. Oh, before he got hurt.
• 44:00
  Yes, yes. So they were predicting.
• 44:01
  Kobe was one of the best players in the world before he tore his.
• 44:04
  The killers couldn't play after. Football's different quarterback
• 44:06
  positions different. So basketball maybe you're
• 44:09
  jumping and quarterback you're just standing and and you're
• 44:12
  throwing the ball. He's stepping into the throw.
• 44:14
  So I don't know. All right.
• 44:16
  Let's move on to the guys that protect that quarterback and
• 44:18
  Tristan worse. Tristan worse, one of the best
• 44:20
  left tackles in all of football for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
• 44:24
  He's going to miss the at least four first four games he's going
• 44:27
  to put on the PUP list. He is.
• 44:31
  You know, obviously they've said that when they had that big
• 44:33
  draft with Andrew Thomas, worse was the only one that everyone
• 44:36
  said was clearly the number one guy after that year and he
• 44:40
  stayed the number one guy even with Thomas playing great at at
• 44:43
  stretches. Speedy, let's start with you on
• 44:46
  this one. What does a worse injury look
• 44:50
  like for this team? Because you know, you got Baker
• 44:53
  Mayfield. He's not the fastest
• 44:55
  quarterback, but he is a pocket kind of quarterback.
• 44:58
  I, I do I, I do think he can scramble some, but I think this
• 45:01
  is going to affect their offense.
• 45:02
  Yeah, it it was a big issue for them in 2022 when Worst was
• 45:05
  dealing with very similar injury problems.
• 45:07
  And that was Tom Brady's final year in the NFL.
• 45:09
  He took a lot more hits than he than he showed up.
• 45:11
  And the box has done a nice job rebuilding that offensive line
• 45:14
  since then. But again, they haven't had that
• 45:16
  much experience playing without him.
• 45:18
  I agree with you. I think it's a big thing to
• 45:19
  watch in the beginning of the season.
• 45:21
  Have to do more quick concepts in that offense now.
• 45:23
  And that might be tough with a new coordinator to remember.
• 45:25
  No Liam Cohen anymore. So they're going to try to
• 45:27
  adjust now the third coordinator in three years, to a more
• 45:30
  quicker offense. I disagree.
• 45:32
  I Charlie in this season, it's only four games and again, Baker
• 45:37
  Mayfield is a guy that is a mobile.
• 45:40
  He's not super speed like Lamar Jackson.
• 45:42
  They have a tremendous amount of offensive talent.
• 45:45
  They can run the ball. They have two capable running
• 45:47
  backs. I I know, I know worth is one of
• 45:50
  the better offensive line tackles in in the league.
• 45:54
  I do believe that Tampa's very talented offensively and they
• 45:57
  got guys that can, you know, move into the slot.
• 46:01
  I, I expect them to use two guys in the slot a lot this year.
• 46:05
  Short passes, quick passes. I expect that's how they're
• 46:08
  going to run their offense. I, I, I, it's going to hurt him
• 46:11
  a little bit, not by much. They're the best team in that
• 46:13
  division. I don't even think you can argue
• 46:15
  it so. You know, we talk about the the
• 46:19
  big fellas that protect everybody and we all are fans of
• 46:24
  quarterback play when they're doing well.
• 46:26
  I don't think people realize just how important your
• 46:29
  teammates are sometimes to make you look good.
• 46:31
  And I think as a baseball player, I always wonder, you
• 46:34
  know, with pitchers, how important you feel your catcher
• 46:38
  is. And I think it's a very similar
• 46:39
  relationship between quarterback and blind side protector.
• 46:43
  What what what about you in your career with the catchers?
• 46:45
  You know, they're like, how many of them you think made you
• 46:47
  better? And I mean, we know we we
• 46:49
  talked, you mentioned Javi Lopez last show.
• 46:52
  I don't think Greg Maddox ever pitched him.
• 46:54
  I think he pitched to Eddie Perez.
• 46:56
  It's like it was it was before and then, but Eddie Perez didn't
• 47:00
  call the game. Greg Maddox called his own game.
• 47:02
  So the way Greg Maddox caught the ball was the pitch.
• 47:05
  Eddie Perez didn't call the game.
• 47:07
  Greg called it the way he caught.
• 47:09
  So if he wanted to throw a certain pitch, he'd catch it
• 47:11
  like this, like this closer to his chest or walking back to the
• 47:14
  mouth. Greg called it from the game.
• 47:16
  The dude's stupid intelligent, like sure, no, no catcher.
• 47:20
  So before Eddie Perez now he's obviously the the bullpen coach
• 47:23
  now, but how he was the personal catcher before?
• 47:26
  Because that's like he he was like a Jose Molina, like
• 47:31
  couldn't hit worth a shit, but could receive and catch.
• 47:34
  And now that's why they're doing all the one legged stuff because
• 47:37
  now it's not throwing runners out.
• 47:39
  It's framing and getting pitch calling, which we've seen
• 47:42
  horrible umpire. But to your question is, is, is
• 47:46
  we've seen how that's played out in multiple sports.
• 47:48
  Guys taking your blind side. Why did Tom Brady always pay his
• 47:54
  guys more to protect his butt? Because he was like, I'm going
• 47:58
  to play longer be this because I'm paying these guys longer.
• 48:01
  It was it was always nice. And I had some really, really
• 48:04
  great defensive catchers. I mean, my first hitter in the
• 48:08
  big leagues, I shook off Jorge because I didn't want to throw
• 48:11
  the pitch. He called.
• 48:12
  I'll never forget it. And I don't ever let him let it
• 48:16
  down when when I see him. I was like, yeah, I shook you
• 48:18
  off. And you never have ever caught
• 48:20
  me before. But I had Russell Martin, Jose
• 48:22
  Molina, Francisco Cervelli, Chad Moeller, like just really,
• 48:26
  really great defensive catchers. And it's nice before it was all
• 48:31
  plug, plug it in pitch com where you knew you were on the same
• 48:36
  page where it's like, all right, he's going to call fastball in
• 48:40
  and you knew. And it just I loved working fast
• 48:42
  anyways. And so that relationship, I
• 48:45
  think, between the front guys and like catchers is very, very
• 48:49
  similar, like you said, because once you're on the same page and
• 48:52
  know you can run a certain play or a certain scheme, or I can
• 48:56
  pitch this guy a certain way, know that he's going to block it
• 48:58
  and I can bury some pitches four games or I can kind of escape.
• 49:01
  What's that? It's four games.
• 49:04
  I I think I obviously. At least four games.
• 49:06
  It's knee surgery. They don't.
• 49:07
  They didn't say what it was. It's a fix a knee surgery.
• 49:09
  Atlanta What is the Atlanta schedule like?
• 49:11
  I mean, not Atlanta, Tampa Bay, Tampa.
• 49:13
  What is Tampa schedule for the? 1st it's but they're fixing a
• 49:16
  previous surgery. Right, No, this is the his first
• 49:19
  surgery didn't work, so he needs another one and that you don't
• 49:23
  know how he's going to recover. It's at least four games
• 49:26
  minimum, their first. Four games.
• 49:28
  Their first game is against the Falcons on the road.
• 49:31
  Second game on the road against the Texans and at home against
• 49:33
  The Jets. Home against the Eagles.
• 49:35
  They're going to win. They're going to win two out of
• 49:37
  those four games, so. But you got to remember once you
• 49:40
  get in there, you don't know the amount of scar tissue that's
• 49:42
  that's in there. Once you get in there sometimes
• 49:44
  like it's, it stinks. Yeah, it's, it's going to be a
• 49:47
  problem for me. Like as I just know as a left
• 49:50
  tackle, I played left tackle. It's all about like if there's a
• 49:53
  guy who's a wide rusher, the quarterback knows how the left
• 49:56
  tackle likes to play him so he knows how to get out of the
• 49:58
  pocket. And that's something that you
• 50:00
  don't really think about too often.
• 50:01
  Like it's easy, easy to navigate the pocket when you know what
• 50:04
  your guys in front of you do to different types of techniques
• 50:06
  you're facing that you can see pre snap.
• 50:09
  So let's move on to the last one here before we get out.
• 50:12
  Actually, we go to these quickly.
• 50:15
  Just quickly. Edge edge rusher Dallas Turner
• 50:17
  got ripped off for just under $250,000.
• 50:20
  I got ripped off in almost the exact same way.
• 50:22
  Errol. When I first started on the
• 50:24
  show, it was through someone scamming you with like a wire
• 50:27
  fraud. They was from JP Morgan Chase
• 50:31
  bank. Same way that happened to me and
• 50:35
  then I never got my money back. I only lost just under 2000.
• 50:39
  He lost 250,000 I. Lost 80 KA couple of years ago.
• 50:43
  I don't want don't don't cry, cry me a river.
• 50:45
  This guy's got millions and millions of dollars.
• 50:47
  I'll tell you what. How stupid.
• 50:49
  Could you is a rookie? How stupid can you be?
• 50:51
  I, I, you have all these accountants, you have all these
• 50:54
  people running your money and working your money.
• 50:56
  How could you do something like, how could you put your money in
• 50:59
  a situation where you're going to get yourself, you know,
• 51:02
  bankrupt? I've seen this before.
• 51:04
  I've seen this happened many many times.
• 51:06
  Before let me let me read to you how how it went.
• 51:08
  It said someone on February 19th.
• 51:11
  According to affidavit, Turner, the the bank said say they claim
• 51:15
  someone was trying to attempt to impersonate Turner at the bank
• 51:19
  branch in Arizona presented 2 copies of ID to execute a wire
• 51:24
  transfer. Then they called Turner and
• 51:27
  instructed him to transfer money through the from the bank
• 51:32
  branches to do it. So it it was like this huge
• 51:35
  scam. He was a victim of a fraud scam.
• 51:38
  There's so much of that out there.
• 51:41
  You've got to be. I mean, I don't even answer text
• 51:44
  messages that have anything. They're using AI to use your
• 51:48
  voice to. They're doing so many things
• 51:50
  now. There's so many ways that you
• 51:52
  can fraudulently hurt or take, take money from somebody, fight
• 51:57
  with AI. It is very scary.
• 51:58
  So you can't trust anybody on the phone with you or reaching
• 52:01
  out to. You keep it in the mattresses,
• 52:03
  boys. Back to the mattresses.
• 52:04
  I guess. I guess.
• 52:06
  Last one, Eli Manning turned down a stake in Giants ownership
• 52:12
  due to the price. He also had some interesting
• 52:15
  comments about it. He said that he didn't really
• 52:17
  want to be an owner because he does a lot of television and
• 52:20
  broadcasting and he wouldn't be able to get to go inside the
• 52:25
  other locker rooms and learn from the guys very similar to
• 52:30
  Tom Brady who can't do those things.
• 52:33
  I think it was one of many shots that Eli likes to take well at
• 52:37
  Tom. I will say this, I'm sorry to
• 52:39
  cut you off, but the whole Tom Brady story, Tom Brady didn't
• 52:44
  have to throw too much money to get 10% of of the Raiders
• 52:48
  because Davis is desperate. He was desperate for money.
• 52:52
  Now, I don't know about Marrotish.
• 52:55
  I don't know if they're desperate, but I can tell you
• 52:57
  right now they're overcharging the Giants as an organization
• 53:01
  because the Giants organization being that they're in New York
• 53:04
  and they've won four Super Bowls in in about 40 years, they're
• 53:09
  saying, hey, you know what? We've won championships.
• 53:12
  We're the ones that knocked off the Patriots on that undefeated
• 53:14
  season. And oh, by the way, you were the
• 53:16
  quarterback when you did those when you had those runs.
• 53:19
  So I I think honestly, Eli Manning, he didn't want to put
• 53:24
  the money. He didn't want to throw all that
• 53:25
  money. I don't know how much it was,
• 53:27
  but I'm sure it was worth probably five, $600 million.
• 53:31
  I don't think he wants to throw all his shekels for, you know,
• 53:34
  in the money for the Giants, especially the organization run
• 53:36
  by Joe Shane and how bad the organization has been since he
• 53:40
  slept. And by the way, let me ask the
• 53:42
  organization when the organization allowed, yes Ben
• 53:47
  McAdoo do to let to let Geno Smith play in front of him and
• 53:52
  ruin his stream as as far as his streak for games.
• 53:56
  So if I was Eli Manning, I would be pissed off at the
• 53:59
  organization and tell the organization to kiss my rear end
• 54:02
  after what the the organization did, taking Tom Coughlin away
• 54:05
  from the organization when all they had to do was add defensive
• 54:08
  players when they brought Ben McAdoo in and help them maybe
• 54:12
  win a third Super Bowl in a significant amount of time.
• 54:14
  I think the if I was, I would be if I was Eli Manning, I would be
• 54:18
  butthurt for all the things the organization has done to him
• 54:21
  after the fact. He was the Super Bowl world
• 54:23
  champion. It's it's hard to argue with
• 54:25
  that. Just one last thing before we
• 54:27
  get out of this guys. We said it on the last show.
• 54:31
  Apparently Najee Harris didn't listen and in on July 4th had a
• 54:36
  fireworks accident hurt his eye. They say they're superficial and
• 54:41
  injuries and he'll be ready for camp and that has been your whip
• 54:47
  around. I'm not surprised and you're
• 54:50
  you're not going to hear this last or the craziest stories
• 54:54
  with people playing with fireworks, especially multi
• 54:56
  millionaires that should stay the hell away from these.
• 54:59
  By the way, I was at I was at a party I was DJ ING at and I was
• 55:04
  walking into the backyard getting ready to DJ and this guy
• 55:08
  like put like tie 2 blockbusters together and lit him on fire in
• 55:13
  a bottle. And dude, the bottle, half the
• 55:17
  bottle was like literally like 3 inches away from hitting my
• 55:20
  head. OK.
• 55:22
  And I was walking in the backyard.
• 55:23
  I was furiated before the party even started.
• 55:26
  So it's dangerous. You're playing away, you're
• 55:30
  playing around with TNT and anything could happen.
• 55:34
  You don't know how. How long the, what do they call
• 55:37
  those Wicks? The Wicks, You don't know how
• 55:41
  long the Wicks are before they're going to explode, how
• 55:44
  quick they're going to light up. So it's dangerous.
• 55:46
  You don't play around with, especially when you're making
• 55:49
  millions and millions of dollars and you have your family's
• 55:52
  hands, your family's lives in your hands.
• 55:55
  It's literally your, your family's life in your hand.
• 55:58
  So I just think it's, it's ridiculously crazy.
• 56:01
  That's just my opinion. Hey, Errol.
• 56:03
  So we got, we got our buddy Nick goodies in.
• 56:06
  We're going to bring Nick in a second and we're going to put
• 56:09
  Tic Tac no after our guest and we're going to get into since
• 56:12
  our relievers are both here, we're going to make, I believe a
• 56:16
  call to the pen. It's done.
• 56:20
  You can throw a strike on this pitch.
• 56:22
  It's not going to be my John. It feels like jello right now.
• 56:24
  Just get it over the plate. I want him to swing.
• 56:26
  Last time I did that the guy hit one that hasn't landed yet.
• 56:29
  For a call to the pen. This makes my pecker.
• 56:33
  All right. You've gotten really good with
• 56:37
  those, like adding them on to the end of the drops?
• 56:39
  I had to take a shit. Boys, we are making a call to
• 56:47
  the end to talk about All Star Games as we know we're coming up
• 56:51
  on Tuesday. Wanna hear your guys experience
• 56:55
  over the years at the different levels you've played that with
• 56:58
  All Star Games and some stories if you have you know from All
• 57:00
  Star weekend if he attended. This is not a panty dropper.
• 57:03
  Participate in the majors. Jabba, you said you were in the
• 57:06
  Futures Game. Nick, I didn't get to talk to
• 57:07
  you pre show but like to hear what you guys have to say.
• 57:11
  We get some music on. At least start.
• 57:13
  Off with Mr. Chamberlain. Oh yeah, no, it's, I mean, we
• 57:17
  played in plenty of All Star games as as we grew up.
• 57:20
  But yeah, it was, it was weird. I got, I got the call to the
• 57:23
  Futures Game and I was in Akron, OH.
• 57:28
  And they're like, hey. And I obviously didn't pay
• 57:32
  attention to it because I didn't really know much about it.
• 57:34
  And they're like, hey, yeah, you and Tony Franklin, who was my
• 57:38
  manager at the time, They're like, yeah, you're going to
• 57:41
  Philadelphia. And I was like for what?
• 57:44
  Like, Oh, you're taking a flight to San Francisco, and I'm like,
• 57:48
  what? Like, yeah, you just made this
• 57:50
  team. And I was like, whoa, this is
• 57:52
  cool. Like, sweet.
• 57:54
  I had no idea. I was like, I don't know what's
• 57:56
  going on. So we take a red eye and they're
• 58:00
  like, all right, you're going to do this.
• 58:03
  We check in, you get this packet, you go to your room.
• 58:06
  I've been to the the College World Series.
• 58:10
  Sorry, Goody. You didn't make that 1:00.
• 58:11
  You got upset by Stony Brook. I apologize for that.
• 58:14
  Goba is not an athlete. But you, you definitely have
• 58:17
  more championships than us. So I am very envious of you on
• 58:20
  that. But so I was like when we got to
• 58:24
  the World Series, I was like, we got to our room when we had like
• 58:27
  our swag and stuff this. And then when we got there, I
• 58:30
  was like, we got to our room and it was, it was crazy.
• 58:34
  And then we got like putters, we got all kinds of stuff.
• 58:37
  But people don't realize the All Star game is a lot like, no
• 58:40
  matter if it's like Home Run Derby, Celebrity game, Futures
• 58:44
  Game, All Star game, because you want to sign everything for
• 58:46
  everybody. So you literally like sign for
• 58:49
  everything. You got meetings at like 7:00.
• 58:51
  You got to do all these things. And then it's like, well, I want
• 58:54
  to see like Home Run Derby. I want to see like, you know,
• 58:57
  it's you just never know. And, you know, then you get all
• 59:01
  the parties and all the other stuff and you're like, you know,
• 59:05
  I want to experience because you never know if you're ever going
• 59:07
  to get this chance again. And I actually that would that
• 59:11
  that game, I, there was a bird on the field.
• 59:16
  I got it. I got it off the field.
• 59:18
  And I actually got voted best fastball of of that Futures
• 59:23
  Game. And then I was in the big three
• 59:25
  months later. So yeah, you know, you got to
• 59:29
  taste yourself every once in a while.
• 59:30
  Now I'm just old and crusty. Some Gray hair dog.
• 59:36
  You got to do it. You got to do it.
• 59:39
  I wasn't quick enough with the screenshot on that one.
• 59:43
  Goody, how about you give us some of yours on this one?
• 59:46
  Bro I was home for every All Star hit.
• 59:49
  Well, when you were younger and I'm saying like at different
• 59:51
  levels. I made the double AI, made the
• 59:54
  AA All Stars and didn't get, I didn't get to go to it because I
• 59:57
  got called up to AAA. So.
• 1:00:00
  It was in Portland. I was with Trenton.
• 1:00:03
  I had the All Star team. I had a stellar like first half
• 1:00:06
  told me I was an All Star. I was like, all right, sick.
• 1:00:09
  And then like a week before the All Star game, I got called up
• 1:00:13
  to Scranton AAA for New York and then everybody that went to the
• 1:00:17
  All Star game apparently got food poisoning.
• 1:00:19
  So I've dodged a bullet there. This was tight.
• 1:00:22
  And then two nights ago we've had our Florida collegiate
• 1:00:26
  summer league All Star game. I got the coach in that ended in
• 1:00:29
  a tie. But but most All Star breaks, I
• 1:00:31
  was sitting at the beach and, you know, having a few brews and
• 1:00:35
  I remember 1 All Star game, Brad Hamm was there.
• 1:00:37
  I Facetimed him while he was there at the Home Run Derby.
• 1:00:39
  So that was kind of dope. Got the got to like, live
• 1:00:42
  vicariously through him for, I don't know, 20 minutes.
• 1:00:45
  God he was. He was nasty for a couple years
• 1:00:48
  man Wow. Yeah, he's, yeah, he's, he's one
• 1:00:52
  of my good friends. I mean, he's freaking.
• 1:00:54
  Yeah, he was. He was fun.
• 1:00:56
  He was fun, Woody. Yeah.
• 1:00:58
  Hey, that that year, that year, Fish.
• 1:01:02
  So I had just had Carter right and I wanted to come home.
• 1:01:06
  So I left. I left a day early.
• 1:01:08
  I didn't stay for the All Star game.
• 1:01:09
  I came home and my agent called me and I'm in.
• 1:01:13
  I'm in AA at the time and I signed the highest at the time
• 1:01:18
  minor league endorsement deal at $100,000 at an Applebee's.
• 1:01:23
  Applebee's Were you eating good in the neighborhood then?
• 1:01:26
  Oh hey, no, I was still trying to get the appetizer menu son.
• 1:01:30
  I was only making, you know, 400 bucks a month, so.
• 1:01:34
  They had those riblets back in those hundred.
• 1:01:36
  Percent. Funny story, I got called up to
• 1:01:38
  AA and I was getting paid first year salary and it didn't change
• 1:01:44
  for a while and goody knows this as well.
• 1:01:46
  You get paid as you go up but in your first year you make the
• 1:01:50
  same amount. So I get called up to AA and I
• 1:01:54
  get my first paycheck. Well I get a call and they're
• 1:01:58
  like hey we overpaid you. So I actually had to pay in on
• 1:02:01
  my first paycheck to AA because they overpaid me.
• 1:02:05
  That's. Quite a joke, yeah?
• 1:02:08
  That's that's frustrating. I've I've had that happen on a
• 1:02:11
  much smaller scale and it's been frustrating to.
• 1:02:14
  Me, I was like, I didn't like you guys are the one that paid
• 1:02:16
  me. I was like lucky I I got drafted
• 1:02:18
  in the first round. I was like, why do I have to pay
• 1:02:21
  you? Like this is stupid.
• 1:02:23
  Did you tell them there's this? You ever hear of Finders
• 1:02:25
  Keepers? Ass Liquer.
• 1:02:26
  Yeah, well, I just, there was a chick that thought she got a
• 1:02:29
  $400,000 bonus and spent it on. She's in prison now.
• 1:02:32
  I like anal. Yes.
• 1:02:36
  Well, let's finish this up with favorite.
• 1:02:40
  If you got anybody favorite All Star memories watching as a kid,
• 1:02:44
  any type of you know, the things that jump out.
• 1:02:46
  I know for me, I remember watching Cal Ripken, you know,
• 1:02:50
  being being taken out, being moved back over the shortstop by
• 1:02:54
  I believe it was Jeter and a rod.
• 1:02:56
  That's like one of those really special moments.
• 1:02:58
  I. No, it was a rod with the
• 1:03:00
  Rangers and Tori was the manager.
• 1:03:02
  It was a all right. I just remember it was something
• 1:03:05
  with the Yankees involved with that I.
• 1:03:06
  Remember Ripken memorable All Star game I I think it was Tori
• 1:03:10
  Hunter's catch in the outfield and the game ending in a tie.
• 1:03:15
  I remember that remember that. I think it was in the 90s.
• 1:03:19
  I remember that game that popped out pops out of all the.
• 1:03:23
  Games. Mine would.
• 1:03:25
  Mine would be the when, yeah, when he robbed the Homer,
• 1:03:30
  because it was it didn't end the game as Barry Bonds and Barry
• 1:03:33
  Bonds picked him up as he was running back in the.
• 1:03:35
  Field. 2002, 2002 was the 77 tie.
• 1:03:41
  That was the game that stuck out to me more than anything.
• 1:03:44
  And Tori Hunter's unbelievable grab.
• 1:03:47
  There was AI remember the game, and he makes this unbelievable
• 1:03:51
  catch. How special was that guy?
• 1:03:53
  Mine was 2. Mine was 2008.
• 1:03:55
  Goody, you can go after me. Mine was 2008 because I was
• 1:03:58
  hosting All Star weekend that year.
• 1:04:01
  I hosted the MLB party and then I hosted another party with
• 1:04:05
  Alyssa Milano and then I was at Webster Hall at 11th and 3rd
• 1:04:10
  that. Was your favorite movie The
• 1:04:11
  whole All Star game by the way? Melissa Milano.
• 1:04:14
  No, it wasn't. No, it, it actually wasn't
• 1:04:16
  because that's the year it went into extra and didn't even have
• 1:04:19
  a party. And so, yeah, so we we had it at
• 1:04:24
  Tao. We had a bunch and I was hosting
• 1:04:26
  and it was, it was awesome. It was fun.
• 1:04:28
  I DJ. Ed at Tao it was fun time.
• 1:04:31
  And so that for me was like, I mean, obviously the one that
• 1:04:35
  you're in, you get AC and B on the field and do all that.
• 1:04:37
  That was fun. But hosting and doing all that,
• 1:04:40
  I did like the whole weekend with everything.
• 1:04:42
  And I was like, I'm a year and a half in the big leagues and I'm
• 1:04:46
  hosting all this and I'm just a fat kid from Lincoln, NE.
• 1:04:49
  I was like this is all. Right, Goody finishes up.
• 1:04:54
  He tastes his favorite. My favorite All Star thing was
• 1:04:58
  Josh Hamilton's Home Run Derby, but he hit, what, 26 or 27
• 1:05:03
  homers? Get it?
• 1:05:06
  Yeah. And then and then Errol tried to
• 1:05:07
  say he won, but he didn't win. The rah rah, I mean, he put on
• 1:05:13
  an absolute show and I just remember pulled it in with my
• 1:05:17
  grandpa watching, watching the watching the spectacular
• 1:05:21
  performance he put on. And so that that to me was the
• 1:05:26
  dopest Home Run Derby, All Star game because I didn't know
• 1:05:31
  really who Josh Hamilton was prior to that, you know, but he
• 1:05:35
  became one of my favorite players after that.
• 1:05:37
  How about? Goody.
• 1:05:39
  You know who won that year? Who?
• 1:05:40
  Was it? Nobody knows.
• 1:05:42
  Justin. Morgan, Canadian.
• 1:05:44
  Yeah, like, yeah, nobody. It's he won.
• 1:05:48
  He won. Because.
• 1:05:48
  That's why people talk about who, actually.
• 1:05:50
  Won. They'll remember Josh.
• 1:05:52
  I will say this, do you remember Aaron Judge's Home Run Derby
• 1:05:55
  when he hit the top of Like it was in Tampa?
• 1:05:58
  I think it was in Tampa if I'm not.
• 1:05:59
  Mistaken. Oh, he hit the ceiling and.
• 1:06:00
  Hit the ceiling. Yeah, it was unbelievable. 1017.
• 1:06:04
  Yeah, he hit it like 3 times. You know, it's, it was
• 1:06:09
  ridiculous. So, and John Carlos Stanton, I I
• 1:06:12
  mean the bombs that he had at the Home Run Derby, I mean, one
• 1:06:15
  of them was like 500 feet or something, 550 feet, some
• 1:06:19
  ridiculous numbers. So I mean that guy, when he gets
• 1:06:21
  a hold of them, it's. Scary, scary.
• 1:06:24
  I still remember as a kid that Ken Griffey Junior one where he
• 1:06:26
  had the hat backwards the whole time and he was just launching
• 1:06:29
  him with that beautiful swing. But guys, we get to watch those
