• 0:21
  Speaker 1: Our thanks to Justin Jefferson for joining us in set
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: number one. Bijan Robinson is going to join us coming
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: up here in about 15 to 20 minutes. Looking forward
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: to that. Big names, Mikey, on a big day. The
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: NFL kicks off tonight. We have primetime games for the
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: next five nights. This is so exciting, dude. Football is back.
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: Mikey has said goodbye to his family.
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: Bye.
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: Sorry. Adios. If you need me, I'll be right here.
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: I'll be right there. And Tuesday nights, I'll be at
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: the bowling alley.
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: Yes.
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: I'm excited for Bijan Robinson to join us. I refer
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: to him as the other guy. I just did a
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: fantasy draft. The first guy took Jameer Gibbs. They said,
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: who do you want? And I said the other guy,
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: and I feel badly doing that to him. But he is,
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: for fantasy purposes, he is the other guy right now.
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: Well, I would say this.
• 1:14
  Speaker 4: If the first guy took Bijan and you said the
• 1:16
  Speaker 4: other guy, everybody would.
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: Exactly.
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: Yes.
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: By the way, Jerome Bettis, the bus, is going to
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: join us for the encore here. It's Stugatz and Company.
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: And Spags and Golik are going to join us for
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: God Bless Football. I don't know how.
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: Wow! Football is back!
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but the name that does it to you. We
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: love Justin Jefferson. He was great. We love Bettis, who
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: doesn't love the bus. And we love, you know, we
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: love Bijan Robinson. We love Golik, of course. He's a
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: friend of ours. But the name that gets you excited
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: is Spags. Spags is football, right?
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: Spags is football.
• 1:53
  Speaker 4: But he's football, and he's hockey, and he's basketball, and
• 1:57
  Speaker 4: he's Red Sox.
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: And he's freaking Spags, man.
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: Yes. Yes.
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: The name helps. Spags. Spags. It sounds like football. Spags.
• 2:08
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: So you have a question for me in terms I
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: mentioned earlier, we have five primetime games before we get
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: to B. John Robinson. And you had mentioned before we
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: started recording, you wanted to discuss these five primetime games.
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: So what do you want to do here?
• 2:22
  Speaker 4: So we in the next six days, this is how
• 2:24
  Speaker 4: this is. So such a great time of year. In
• 2:27
  Speaker 4: the next six days, we have five. I'm going to
• 2:30
  Speaker 4: throw out Friday. All respect to Virginia, but I'm going
• 2:34
  Speaker 4: to throw Friday out. In the next six days, we
• 2:38
  Speaker 4: have five primetime football games. And I'm excited about all
• 2:42
  Speaker 4: of them. And I'm curious your rankings of these games.
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: So you're including college then?
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: I'm including one college football game.
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm very excited for that. It might be number one.
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: It might be. But let's go through it.
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: Okay, let's go.
• 2:57
  Speaker 4: So you got Wednesday night, you got tonight, you got
• 3:00
  Speaker 4: the Patriots at the Seahawks.
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: Okay, Pat Seahawks.
• 3:04
  Speaker 4: Thursday night, you got the 49ers at the Rams in Australia.
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: 49ers, that's so weird in Australia. 49ers, Rams, okay.
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: Yep.
• 3:14
  Speaker 4: Saturday, you got Ohio State, Texas. Sunday night, you got Cowboys-Giants.
• 3:23
  Speaker 4: And Monday night, you got Broncos-Chiefs. You see why I
• 3:30
  Speaker 4: said goodbye to my family?
• 3:31
  Speaker 3: Yes.
• 3:32
  Speaker 4: You see why I said goodbye to them?
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: That's just this weekend. That's not even this weekend. That's Wednesday, Thursday.
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: Monday.
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: Oh, and Saturday, Sunday.
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: Honey, there's 20 more of these coming up.
• 3:48
  Speaker 5: More.
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: Love you.
• 3:50
  Speaker 5: Bye.
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: I have to rank these.
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: Number five. Start with number five.
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: Give me a second here.
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: I have a clear answer.
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: You really sprung this on me. But what's your answer?
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: I'll give you my answer for number five. Let's see
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: if my answers match up with your rankings. OK, my
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: rankings match up with yours. Number five for me is Cowboys-Giants.
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: That's number five. That's number five.
• 4:12
  Speaker 4: And the only thing that's saving it is it's Sunday
• 4:14
  Speaker 4: night football, and you're going to get the song, and
• 4:17
  Speaker 4: you're going to get the crew, and it's Sunday night football.
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: It's the first one.
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: Well, it's Cowboys-Giants. It's arguably the biggest rivalry in football.
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: It's a great matchup. A lot of expectations with the Cowboys.
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: It's just a game that you and I– When you
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: consider the other games, it's going to be fifth on
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: this list. I have fantasy interest because Jackson Dart is
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: a guy I drafted. I have Pickens as well. I'll
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: be all over the game because it's the first Sunday
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: of NFL football, and there are fantasy implications, but it's Cowboys-Giants,
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: and I don't really care that much. You know what
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: I'm saying?
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: Fair.
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: That's number five for me. Wow, this is tough.
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: You're going to be shocked at my number four.
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: My number four is tonight.
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: Me too!
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: Really?
• 5:02
  Speaker 6: If this wasn't the opening kickoff, this would be– and
• 5:06
  Speaker 6: it's funny because it's a Super Bowl rematch. These are
• 5:09
  Speaker 6: the two teams that played in the Super Bowl, but
• 5:11
  Speaker 6: it wasn't a great Super Bowl.
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: No, it wasn't. It wasn't a great Super Bowl. And
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: I'm not certain how great of a team Seattle is,
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: and that's unfair to do to Seattle. They won the
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: Super Bowl. But I'm tired of the Patriots. You and
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: I are Jet fans. Like, listen, I'm excited. If this
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: game was on Sunday in the 4 o'clock window, I'm
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: not certain how much attention I would pay to it.
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: Just because I'm a Jet fan, I'm tired of the Patriots,
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: and I'm tired of seeing, as a Jet fan, players
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: that we draft go on to have success elsewhere, and
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: that's what I would see if I was watching Seattle
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: with Sam Darnold. So it's number four for me.
• 5:43
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and I'm not sold that the Patriots are going
• 5:46
  Speaker 4: to be as good as they were.
• 5:47
  Speaker 5: Right.
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: It's going to be interesting to see.
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: Interesting to see how that, if they're not, just what
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: happens to you know who. Who? That guy. That guy.
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: All right, number three. Man, this is tough.
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: I've got my answer.
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: Number three. I'm going to say 49ers Rams, number three.
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: Get out of my head.
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: Really?
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: That's what I have at three.
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: We did not coordinate this, people.
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: No, we don't. Why would we?
• 6:23
  Speaker 4: For me, the whole reason that it's number three is
• 6:26
  Speaker 4: because it's in Australia.
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: It's in Australia. It's hard to get excited about a
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: game that's being played on the other side of the world.
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: As nice a place as Australia is. I went there.
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: I enjoyed it thoroughly. It's fantastic. It's just a weird
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: game in a weird place. and it's a 49ers team that,
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: you know, listen, we're all interested in seeing the Rams
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: and how this team is going to look. I just
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: want to see how they look when they play at SoFi,
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: not in Australia, you know? It's weird.
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: If this game was at SoFi, it would clearly be
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: number one for me.
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: I don't know if it'd be number one.
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: It would be.
• 6:58
  Speaker 4: For me, it would be number one if this game
• 7:00
  Speaker 4: was in San Francisco or at SoFi. This game would
• 7:04
  Speaker 4: be number one because I think these are two absolutely
• 7:08
  Speaker 4: ridiculously good teams. The problem is, as we've said a
• 7:12
  Speaker 4: thousand times, if you've seen one international game, you've seen
• 7:14
  Speaker 4: them all, and they never play the way you want
• 7:16
  Speaker 4: them to play. They always play a little dirty. They
• 7:19
  Speaker 4: always play a little sloppy, I mean. I think this
• 7:24
  Speaker 4: game is going to be a letdown just because of
• 7:27
  Speaker 4: the location as opposed to the actual football.
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: I need you to understand this because the idea that
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: we have five games and we have to write them,
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: And this is exactly why the players deserve to be paid.
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: It's exactly why the players should be able to transfer
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: when they want to transfer. And it's exactly why these
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: coaches are making millions upon millions upon millions of dollars.
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: You gave me five games. One of them was a
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: college game. And that college game is still alive as
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: I write the top five primetime games. That's because college
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: football is our second most popular sport. It is. It is.
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: And I am torn on which one is the best game.
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: I really am. Of the two that have remaining, I
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: am torn. If I could only watch one, which one
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: would I watch? Oh, man.
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: It's good.
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: I mean.
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: All right. I have to go Ohio State, Texas, too.
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: Just because I want to see if Patrick Mahomes is
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: going to return to the Patrick Mahomes of old. Plus,
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: it's Bo Nix. It's Sean Payton. It's Andy Reid. It's Chiefs.
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: It's Broncos. It's inside the division. That division is amazing.
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: I want to see that game. That's a great game.
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: That's number one for me. I talked myself into it.
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: Ohio State, Texas is number two.
• 8:37
  Speaker 3: Yes.
• 8:38
  Speaker 4: My rankings are identical to yours, and that makes me
• 8:40
  Speaker 4: angry because I thought I was going to throw you
• 8:42
  Speaker 4: for a loop and go in Patriot Seattle four.
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: I thought you were going to have a kickoff, Mikey. No,
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: we are. Our rankings are identical.
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: You were looking for some sort of payoff there.
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I was. That's what I get for not prepping
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: you for it.
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: No, you didn't prep me for it. The payoff there
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: is just how much our minds think alike, unfortunately for you. B.

• 11:16
  Speaker 5: it to go out there and play at my optimal level.
• 11:19

• 11:57
  Speaker 1: very aggressive brusher. How about you?
• 12:01
  Speaker 3: You know, it just depends. Like, if I'm trying to get–
• 12:05
  Speaker 3: get something out.
• 12:06
  Speaker 5: Right you gotta be a little aggressive but uh typically
• 12:10
  Speaker 5: i'm more of like soft you know just i'll be
• 12:12
  Speaker 5: i'll be chilling you know brushing.
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: Um do you go with mouthwash after or before i
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: have a friend who does mouthwash before he brushes his
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: teeth it's weird before yes weird yes oh.

• 12:28
  Speaker 1: After right He's a weird friend. He's a Jets fan,
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: so that should explain it. Texas-Ohio State's coming up this weekend,
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: but you have the NFL also coming up this weekend.
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: How do you navigate that? Because I know you're still interested.
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: I know you want to see that game, but you
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: yourself also have a game, so how are you going
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: to navigate the Ohio State-Texas game coming up this weekend?
• 12:53
  Speaker 5: Yeah, well, good thing is that it's at 7.30, so
• 12:56
  Speaker 5: that makes it easy. So that's like right after, you know,
• 13:00
  Speaker 5: probably a meeting or something that we have. But I'm
• 13:02
  Speaker 5: definitely tuned in. I know all the guys are going
• 13:06
  Speaker 5: to be tuned in. I know everybody's watching that game.
• 13:07
  Speaker 5: But I'm excited for it. I'm excited for it. I
• 13:10
  Speaker 5: know it's going to be a big one. And I
• 13:13
  Speaker 5: know we're going to win this game.
• 13:14
  Speaker 3: We have to.
• 13:15
  Speaker 5: You know, we lost last year. So I think we
• 13:17
  Speaker 5: have to go in there prepared. And it's at Texas, too. So,
• 13:19
  Speaker 5: I mean, you know, I'm excited for it. But then, obviously,
• 13:22
  Speaker 5: our game's the next day. So I want them to
• 13:24
  Speaker 5: put a great product out so, you know, we can
• 13:26
  Speaker 5: go put one out the next day.
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: Your team, the Falcons is such a talented team and
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: the division where really any team could win that division.
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: Do you look around your locker room or like, man,
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: we're as talented as any team in the NFL because
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: you are Bishan. Yeah.
• 13:42
  Speaker 5: Yeah. I mean, that's, that's what we take pride in, man.
• 13:44
  Speaker 5: Like we understand who we have on this team and
• 13:47
  Speaker 5: we understand how we prepare, how we work.
• 13:49
  Speaker 3: So now it's us, like not just saying it, but
• 13:52
  Speaker 3: we have to go out there and do it.
• 13:53
  Speaker 5: We have to go out there and, you know, take
• 13:56
  Speaker 5: accountability and execute at a very high level and do
• 14:01
  Speaker 5: it together. That's the biggest thing, man. I feel like
• 14:03
  Speaker 5: we've gotten very close as a team this offseason with
• 14:07
  Speaker 5: the new regime.
• 14:08
  Speaker 3: And I think it's going.
• 14:10
  Speaker 5: To be pretty special when we go out there and
• 14:13
  Speaker 5: maximize every opportunity that we have on the offense, on
• 14:16
  Speaker 5: the defense, special teams. But now it's just us going
• 14:20
  Speaker 5: out there and just providing the product on the field
• 14:23
  Speaker 5: and not talking about it, but just go out there
• 14:24
  Speaker 5: and just do it.
• 14:25
  Speaker 7: Bijan, our show is based in South Florida, and a
• 14:28
  Speaker 7: lot of people down here are interested to see what
• 14:30
  Speaker 7: Tua does in Atlanta. He was named the Falcons' starting
• 14:33
  Speaker 7: quarterback for this game against the Steelers. What have you
• 14:36
  Speaker 7: seen from Tua in the preseason and training camp?
• 14:41
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, his experience is fun to watch, man.
• 14:45
  Speaker 5: You can tell he's had a lot of experience in
• 14:49
  Speaker 5: this league, but the talent obviously is there. He has
• 14:51
  Speaker 5: the talent, but it's more of... the mentality of what
• 14:55
  Speaker 5: he has and who he is as a person and
• 14:59
  Speaker 5: what he brings to the offense. And, you know, I
• 15:01
  Speaker 5: think just with him, you know, our job is to
• 15:04
  Speaker 5: make him look good, man. Like, every chance that we got,
• 15:08
  Speaker 5: you know, if he gets the ball in our hands, like,
• 15:10
  Speaker 5: when he gets the ball in our hands, like, it's
• 15:11
  Speaker 5: our job to, you know, break those tackles and get
• 15:14
  Speaker 5: the end zone. But I think with him, like, He has,
• 15:18
  Speaker 5: you know, amazing talent. And, you know, I know that
• 15:21
  Speaker 5: we're building his confidence every single day.
• 15:23
  Speaker 3: He has confidence in us. So that's been the biggest
• 15:26
  Speaker 3: thing this offseason.
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: Bijan, growing up, who were some of the running backs
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: you kind of patterned your game after? Were there some
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: running backs that you looked at and you're like, man,
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: I want to do some of what he does?
• 15:36
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, there's been a lot. I watched a
• 15:38
  Speaker 5: lot of highlights. I watched a lot of the games
• 15:40
  Speaker 5: on YouTube, like Barry Sanders.
• 15:42
  Speaker 3: Marshall Falk. Yes. The older guys. Right. Pepsi.
• 15:47
  Speaker 5: And then even like more of this in the 2010 generation,
• 15:50
  Speaker 5: like with Adrian Peterson and.
• 15:54
  Speaker 3: Even guys now, Christian McCaffrey, I know.
• 15:57
  Speaker 5: I trained with him, but just seeing his game and
• 15:59
  Speaker 5: taking a lot from his game has been fun to do.
• 16:03
  Speaker 3: But there's a lot of great backs in the history
• 16:07
  Speaker 3: of this game.
• 16:08
  Speaker 5: But it's cool to see like how the position is
• 16:10
  Speaker 5: continuing to grow now and what we're trying.
• 16:14
  Speaker 3: To do with it in this day and age.
• 16:17
  Speaker 4: John, you not only have a new quarterback in Atlanta,
• 16:19
  Speaker 4: but you also have a new head coach, Kevin Stefanski.
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: We know he likes to run the ball.
• 16:24
  Speaker 4: How much has he told you about how much you
• 16:26
  Speaker 4: can expect to see the football this season?
• 16:28
  Speaker 3: I mean, he hasn't got to tell me nothing. You
• 16:30
  Speaker 3: want it.
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: You want the ball.
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: Yes.
• 16:33
  Speaker 5: That's the product of who he's had, who he's coached.
• 16:38
  Speaker 5: He's coached AP. He was there when A.J. Peterson won
• 16:42
  Speaker 5: the MVP. So, like, He knows the importance of how
• 16:47
  Speaker 5: important it is to have a great run game, not
• 16:50
  Speaker 5: just in Atlanta, but just in general, because that opens
• 16:54
  Speaker 5: up everything for your offense, but then that just brings
• 16:56
  Speaker 5: so much energy to the team, so much juice to
• 16:58
  Speaker 5: the team, and it's just fun making those plays happen.
• 17:03
  Speaker 5: But yeah, he hasn't had to say too much. That's
• 17:07
  Speaker 5: just going out there and just doing it.
• 17:08
  Speaker 7: Bijan, as one of the best running backs in the NFL,
• 17:10
  Speaker 7: I was hoping you could help me with the power
• 17:12
  Speaker 7: ranking here.
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: Wow.
• 17:14
  Speaker 7: Spin, truck, hurdle, juke. How would you power rate those four?
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: Wow. Let's hear them again real quick, okay? I like
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: this question. Go ahead.
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: Spin, truck, hurdle, juke.
• 17:26
  Speaker 7: So basically your four moves you could do in Madden.
• 17:28
  Speaker 3: I'm going to say juke is number one. Right. I
• 17:32
  Speaker 3: think that's the most effective. And then trucking is number two. Yes.
• 17:37
  Speaker 3: Trucking somebody is demoralizing for them.
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 17:42
  Speaker 3: And then spinning– You know, that's an elite move when
• 17:45
  Speaker 3: you do it right. Right.
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: It's desperate measures if you're spitting, right?
• 17:48
  Speaker 3: I mean– Yeah.
• 17:49
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 17:50
  Speaker 3: Don't talk about it.
• 17:51
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 17:51
  Speaker 5: Setting people up, which is great. And then the hurdle, like,
• 17:55
  Speaker 5: if you hurdle at the right time, obviously for me, like–
• 17:59
  Speaker 5: If you hurt somebody right and just jump over somebody clean,
• 18:02
  Speaker 5: then that's probably going to be the last one for me.
• 18:05
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: So juking is ahead of trucking because I figured someone
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: like you, you're a powerful running back, you're a great athlete,
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: but I just figured trucking someone might be the best
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: feeling for you, even better than scoring a touchdown.
• 18:16
  Speaker 5: I know, but making somebody miss, making somebody look.
• 18:20
  Speaker 3: Dumb is– That can really bring somebody out their game.
• 18:26
  Speaker 5: Because that's all I think about is that right there.
• 18:29
  Speaker 3: So I think that has to be first.
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: Have you ever taken somebody out of their game? Have
• 18:34
  Speaker 2: you ever just looked at a defender and just went,
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: his game is over.
• 18:37
  Speaker 3: I just took him out. Absolutely. Really? It shows in
• 18:41
  Speaker 3: their eyes. It shows in their body language. They just
• 18:45
  Speaker 3: don't want to be there that week. Right. Which is okay.
• 18:48
  Speaker 3: Which is okay.
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: Do you remember the defender that you did it to? Like,
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: is there one that stands out for you where you
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: just looked in his eyes and you're like, man, I
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: trucked him. Yeah.
• 18:58
  Speaker 3: It's been a lot. It's been a lot. I don't
• 19:00
  Speaker 3: want to name names. But it's definitely.
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: Been a lot. It's a great stat. Trucking stats. It is.
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: All right, man. We appreciate this. Good luck to you.
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: I'm excited to watch you play this season. I think
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: it's going to be a lot of fun. One more
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: time here on the way out. Tell us what you're
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: doing with Colgate. It's great.
• 19:20
  Speaker 3: Yeah, man.
• 19:20
  Speaker 5: It's just continuing with the partnership and with the Colgate.
• 19:25
  Speaker 5: So that prevention, like make sure everybody gets it and
• 19:29
  Speaker 5: preventing those oral health problems before they start and make
• 19:31
  Speaker 5: sure that you're always just making sure your teeth are
• 19:34
  Speaker 5: healthy and, you know, not just looking good, but that
• 19:36
  Speaker 5: they're healthy and that they just provide the best for
• 19:39
  Speaker 5: your body, for yourself, for your family, and just everybody
• 19:42
  Speaker 5: that sees you.
• 19:43
  Speaker 3: So it's a good one.
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: You're such a good endorser for them. You have such
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: a great smile. You really do.
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: I appreciate it.
• 19:49
  Speaker 3: All right yes sir all.
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: Right just not when you're playing football and trucking someone
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: all right just stare in their eyes and just remind
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: them i've ended your day today.
• 19:56
  Speaker 3: Yes you still smile at them.
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: You have to smile at him. It hurts even more
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: when you smile at him. Yeah, Mikey.
• 20:05
  Speaker 3: That's right.
• 20:05
  Speaker 2: Give me your final score, Ohio State, Texas.
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: Final score. Prediction.
• 20:09
  Speaker 3: I'm going to say 28-21. All right.
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: Listen, I know you want a lot of carries, but
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: just be careful. When you get to 500, like Ricky
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: Williams did that one year, former Texas guy. With Dave Watson,
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: just tell the coach enough, okay? He knows. That's wild.
• 20:23
  Speaker 3: That's wild. Yes, sir. Yes, sir.
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: Two years in a row, I believe. Anyway, Bijan, good
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: luck to you. And good luck this season. Good luck
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: to Texas over the weekend, man. We appreciate your.
