I'm looking the Vegas even knows dude Vegas this year is just a no they're in fucking bed with all of them um anyway I gotta I gotta I gotta thank I gotta thank um I gotta thank the uh anything better fans dude I gotta thank everybody who watched my special dude I put my special out my pop dude I put my special out last yesterday a day. It's 24, it's a day old. I put it out yesterday. I put my own money up for it. Dude, over 200 comments came in, people saying, best of his three.

Somebody goes, I'm two minutes in and I just screamed in my living room, Verzee don't miss. And they were like, nothing but net. 10 out, they were saying 10 out of 10 classic. So I really, really appreciate it. You put that special out in September would have bombed. Mr. October, you're the Mr. October. What a week you had you went three and one Yankees big victory last night. Yep.

Big victory, dude. I mean fucking three takes it. You got you got to it's one one you got to win last night. They came back they tied it up to two I was watching. Paul, he's a up They can't throw a strike Yeah, there was yeah, I feel like you got one of those guys and and the This guy was half Dan Quisenberry last night Yeah, I mean dude it's both New York teams both New York teams seem like they're good imagine another Yankees and Mets another Yankees Out the fucking Phillies. Yeah with a fire Huh? The Mets are just really like caught a nice fire at the right time.

Yeah, you know what I like on Kansas City? I don't know his name, I love that catcher. He just looks like a catcher, like an old school catcher too. Not like Joe Girardi who looked like a catcher because he was jacked. He just looks like Roy Campanella or something like on a classic baseball card. And he had that big single when they were trying to get the rally going.

He hits after Bobby Witt Jr. Dude, I love October baseball. I love it. I don't know why people... And I get it because you know, basketball, hockey and all of that. It's really a fucking shame. If baseball had any fucking brains, Paul, they would shorten their regular 100% got to be shorter, we get their fucking playoffs out of the way before hockey and before the NBA. I mean,

marriages break up this time of year, Paul, it's a fucking off for a going 162 games is way too it's like and that's why when you listen to sports talk and radio they're like what's happening to this team it's like what's happening to the team is there five months into the season and people that's what's happening to the team. picks because we are both short on time. But thank you guys for watching the special reasonable man on my YouTube page. I'm completely overwhelmed by the first day. Let's keep it coming up. I'll do my podcast. We're gonna blow you out. Paul is what you guys don't know. Polly is so close to making some fucking

money in this business. And he's gonna come on here shirtless with the fur coat, challenging somebody. You know what I love? Paul Verzee with some money is gonna be be one of the funnest things I ever fucking seen. Oh, you know it. Convertible.

You get to horse this. Paul, you like to spend, you know what? You know what I knew that the special was doing way good was they were looking for things. They were like, this is hilarious, but is the sound good? Like that's what I knew, but one of my haters goes, one of my haters goes, you know, Paulie starting to grow on me.

This is hilarious. I'm like, all right, let's go. Let's get to hating. Oh my God, you even got the old man up in the balcony. My favorite one was though, he hits a swish, all that verse, he hits nothing but net and he never misses. But anyway, thank you and Bill you I'm so proud of you and I'm so fucking happy for you.

It's about time. And you It's about goddamn time. You shared it. I really appreciate that same thing with them listen everybody else. All right, we're into week six. We're into week six. I saw these lines.

Andrew, can you throw these lines up? Because this was- I know we're pressed for time, but we gotta talk about how the Jets got rid of their coach. He doesn't even let them say goodbye. I mean, dude, that's like ghosting a chick. You know what I mean?

Be a man, look her in the eye, and just say, look, I wanna fuck somebody else. I'm sorry, I just, you know, I didn't wanna cheat on you. It's not you, it's me and my dick. You know, at least- want to cheat on you. You know, it's me and my deck, you know, walking, walking, walking him to his car, walking him to his car. Like he goes, can I say goodbye to my guys? Nah, nah. I mean, that's I was joking. I just did Jim and Sam. And I was joking that they had his car started and warmed up for him When he walked out

Dude, you know how frustrating it must be to be a coach of a jet and jets and get walked out like that Well, they're acting like it's you It's like buddy. You haven't won since 1969 don't fucking escort me out Yeah, like you guys were over here winning championships Blindside me like that. And then I can't say goodbye to the players that love me that I love, dude, he's going to be sitting in a bar talking about that 20 years from now.

I'm not saying he's not going to have other successes, but that's going to be the one like that one chick who just fucking, you know, extra ripped your heart out. You never forget it. The jets just did that. You know what? They got an enemy in that guy. Oh dude tell me that guy is not going to get another job and mark the Jets on the calendar. Although I don't think he was a great head coach I think he's a great defensive coordinator. But can I ask you a question how can you gauge anybody on the Jets? It's true. What's he got up what's he got above him? Shit. What's he got below true that that

that that that that that that that that I think you're right about the head coaching job with the Jets. You're basically you might as well just send a fuck you fill out a job application at ESPN to sit there they all end up there.

All the German Edwards, Brett, right? They just end up on TV wearing a suit. That's hysterical. Imagine they was like he was like, All right, now where's the, like as he's signing the contract for the Jets, he goes, yeah, is the ESPN thing, do I, should we just do that? That's how bad that job is. That's how bad that job is. They have to like give you the best job in football, which is just talking football. All of those fucking guys, Jimmy Johnson, once he starts talking football, it doesn't have to deal with the hot seat. You're like, fuck this, I'm staying here.

Once a week. What are they doing in Baltimore? All right, Jimmy, here's your check. Go back to your boat. All right, let's get into the picks here, Paul. Who's going first? It's week six, so hold on a second. You went year one, I went year two.

Oh, thank you. You went year one, I went year two. You went year three. You went year one. I went year two. You went year three. Paul, no, the week three one. So it's me. So it's my it's my first. It's it's it's it's my pick. I mean, what are we doing here?

You should be picking first a whole month. Jake the snake. Can we get an injury report? Sure. For which game? Any any big ones? Jack, don't think I don't notice you've been going to the gym. I'm seeing those packs starting to peek through the t-shirt.

This guy's doing a makeover this season. Thanks, Bill. Well, the Texans lost their top receiver, Nico Collins. That was the biggest one that went on IR yesterday. So that's one to watch out for. But there's- Is he done for the year? No, just for like a month.

Okay. Yeah, so that hurts. He's the leader. He wanted to take the month off Paul to watch you special. That's how hard you kill him. There you go. You're a reasonable man, baby. Did you come up with something on this show?

Did you came up with something on this show? You want to hear something nuts? I swear to God, I got an we got a I got a up to date. Breaking news right now. The Assistant General Manager of the New York Giants just texts texted me during this. I swear to God, the Assistant General Manager of the New York Giants just texted me during the stream point. No, he said I'm watching your special this weekend. I swear to God. I

swear to God, dude, how nuts is that? Christmas comes early every year for Paul Verstee. This is your month. Absolutely. Um, black people. February gays have June and Paul Verstee. That's October.

Andrew, can we get the lines? Can we get the lines for all the games up? Is that a possibility? Because I think I go first. What of I, I, what? Andrew, you taught me things. Yeah, hey. Andrew, that was the boy genius. You know some of them stick. The boy genius from Beverly Hills. His rich parents didn't pay attention to him as a kid, and his best friends were his computers. Yeah, we had so many houses that we just never ran into each other. His friends were his computers, and he should be working at NASA right now, but he's trying to stick it to his dad by doing a plot check. This is your backstory.

I threw the 4.0 away. Yeah, I'm gonna try and share this screen here and see. Dude, by the way, Bryce Harper, man, that guy is fun to watch in the playoffs. Dude just delivers. I know they got shut down or whatever but that guy, he turned that one game around. Looks like the Mets were going to sweep them game two. I'm sure the Dodgers didn't show just yet, but there's still time probably tomorrow. What's that? Artless one Padres to two daughters had yesterday. I mean, I'm in serious XM and I have to do it this way.

Plus two versus the Bears. Just talk to me, Paul. I like the Jaguars. I think that the Bears had a good week last week, but they played the Carolina Panthers. And I saw the Jaguar the Jags came back and won that game. I think there we go. There is a game is in London, Pauline, by the way, just letting you know. I like I like Jacksonville. I'm gonna take Jacksonville getting points in London against the Bears I know the Bears are good, but I think Trevor Lawrence and them figured something out last week and I like them getting the points So let's do that All right, Oh Billy boys going with the Buffalo Bills Monday night minus two and a half against the Jets

In in the Meadowlands or wherever the fuck you guys play over there. You know the Jets are in flux right now. I don't think they're turning around a week. I'm sure Jake you're gonna say somebody's injured. I don't give a fuck. Minus two and a half. I like it. I like it. I think they're gonna beat him and I Don't know. I just think I think the Jets are cursed Yeah, I'm not even Aaron Rodgers or fucking Brett farb or any of these guys that go there could turn him around All right, I like you know what good on that coach good for him He got out of that fucking haunted house the Amityville horror for the NFL I'm gonna do something

I normally don't do but I'm gonna take a lot of points and I am going to take the Cleveland Browns getting nine. I Don't think the Philadelphia Eagles are that good of a team yet. Not saying they can't turn it around But Jalen hurts looks different. I I think his face sort of quitting on the fucking team last week? Well, I think that everybody's- Yeah, I think everybody's saying he stinks and all this stuff. I think he's gonna- I think he's- If the competitor is gonna bounce back, nine points is a lot. They could lose the game and still get some garbage points at the end.

I'm gonna take the Browns. I like old against the grain Polly. I'm going to take the Texans even with that big injury minus seven over my New England Patriots. It's just like we are fucking hapless. I hate to say it. We're just we haven't found our footing with the new crew. And it's also a way that I can watch the Patriots and get a positive either they fucking the worst is when you bet against your team, they cover and they still lose. This is a big enough spread. Obviously this is very doable, but I'm taking the Texans. Oh, Billy wins some lose some two and two last week. Um, I am

going to rock this week, Paul. That's always my walk. The NFL, that's their story this year. What is that? Uh, what is the Chargers line? Are the Chargers getting two and a half or they minus two and a half? Minus two and a half. I'm going to take the Chargers to beat the Broncos. You bastard. I, uh, well, hey, you took mine you took my Texans it's even Don't do that tit for tat shit with me Hey how did I know how did I how did I know you were gonna pick them but um yeah I like the Chargers I think they're better All right I like the Steelers going into the Raiders minus three and a half that's another team I don't know I'm just betting against teams that can't seem to get their shit together

it's three now that's what I have there oh okay they said three and a half cool oh did I maybe I said that yeah no no problem listen you're the boy genius from Beverly Hills I'm not gonna go are the oh boy I'm so sorry your Your parents never paid attention

I'm going to take the Lions minus three over the Cowboys. I just think golf is so good. And I think they're well coached. Wait, wait, they're playing the Bengals. No, they're not. The Giants are playing the Bengals. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I thought you said the Giants. Lions, Lions, Lions. Those are my four. I'm taking the Lions minus three.
