Oh, dude. I've been puking and shitting for fucking three days. Oh, that's good. You're dropping weight? Yeah. That's a fucking Hollywood question. No, I didn't. You know what?

Hey, nothing like a little stomach bug. Any other place in the world, they're like, oh man, that's terrible. I hope you feel better. It's like, oh yeah, is your stomach flattening out? Nothing better than a little stomach bug to fit in that sweatshirt, okay? I got an acting gig coming up. Paul, can you just kind of breathe in this room

Three and one, two and two and four and oh,

making him nine and three in the last oh he's coming in the fourth card dude I gotta go four and oh the last two I gotta go four and oh three weekends in a row dude if you go four and oh three weekends in a row that's a trophy never been done and I would still be 500 yeah Paul I just with the kids and writing the script dude I've watched a disgustingly small amount of football. And since I started turning it around, I just bet on shit that I don't think is gonna happen. I swear to God, I just been betting stupid shit.

The Patriots versus the Bills. Fucking Pats had that game won if they didn't, they didn't have that little flub there in the end. Dude, we got a QB. We got somebody to build around. I'm getting excited. Yeah, Drake May? Drake May, yeah.

I haven't worn my Patriots jacket all season. I'm about to take it out of the fucking, dude, I haven't watched one second of, all I've seen is the highlights. I don't have the package, Paul. All I'm getting are Chargers and the Rams out here. Dude, I feel like the Patriots, even games they lost, they just fucking fight.

They're a good team. They're a good young team that's like getting better. Second half, second half of the season, the first half was looking like a disaster. I mean, I was just betting against them and they were losing every week, you know? And they weren't covering the spread either. And the spreads were getting disgusting.

They were getting up seven, eight, nine, and they still weren't covering. But they kind of like put something together together and that kid drake made now granted i'm just watching highlights he looks like a fucking gamer man and and it seems like the team's rallying around him they like him i'm excited for i'm i dude i can handle a little fucking you know nine and eight little ten and seven creep back up to where we were nine and eight, little 10 and seven, creep back up to where we were? No, but how's the Patriots defense?

Like, is it D good? Paul, I have not watched a second this season. I've just been, dude, I was in a writers room, I had no windows, Paul, the walls were closing in. It was crazy. You know what? I'm borderline not an American at this point, how little football I watched this year.

You know what though? They could have said when you weren't winning weeks, they could have been like the game passed them by but no you know what you did you pulled up you pulled the fuck in you reinvented yourself. I'm betting like a housewife over here Paul. You have this guy an offensive tackle he starts fucking making a rain out there. I just needed to change the scenery that's it. All the sudden can play football. I can bet on football again. Well, collectively, our show has gone like 12 and 4 in the last. Our show is doing well.

Somebody sent me something and they go, dude, my kid had a better Christmas because of your picks. I said, hey, all right, just don't go crazy. Hey, as we always said, bet responsibly. Don't have a fucking podcast determining whether your kids have a good Christmas or not. Christmas. Hang on buddy, I'm doing a podcast. It'll be done in a minute. He hands his kid a basketball. He was like, Hey, it would have been better at Mersey than the Jaguars. Okay. All right. Jake the snake come in here with an injury report, dude. Second to last week of the season. It always gets sad.

Hey, before we do that, Paul, can we show our records for the year, dude? We're doing all right on this show. I mean, I'm the dead weight. No, we're doing all right. Let's get, yeah, well, let's get Andrew. Lemlis is killing it for the third straight year. Jake the Snake dug himself out of a hole. Yep. All right. So I'm the guy who's going to get traded for a player to be named later at 28 and 36.

Paul Verzi on his way. He needs, Paul Verzi needs one victory. No, it's over already. In the next two weeks, that's all you need is one victory, right? No, I'm 12 over. Well, if you go. If I go 0 and 8, I'm still 4-0. Oh, that's it. No, he did it again. Yes, he did. He did it again. Four years. Jordan didn't win four in a row. Granted, you know, you got to take a little sabbatical because of some off court little

activities there. I just like to thank my team. Paul Verzee, four years in a row. I think this is, Andrew, this is your third year in a row doing it, right? Yeah, third year. Third year keeping tabs. All right, let me see. Go back down. The final... This was last year. That was Bill 31, 34, and 4. Paul 37, 26, and 3. And then I had that fluke 44, 25. It's not a fluke, you have the same record again.

Yeah, almost. Look at Jake the Snake, Jake the Snake can do it. He's got two weeks to do it. He's getting a wild card call. He's sneaking in the last weekend. Exactly. It'll be a close race. Yeah, I apologize guys.

If I was watching football, I feel like I could be 500. Bet MGM's gotta be afraid of this podcast, man. If you know anything, don't listen to me. Listen to these other three guys, all right? I'm excited about your last three weeks though. I'm just a decoy, Paul. I make it look like how Bet MGM thinks it's gonna go.

And then you guys come up. All right, picked up where we left off. I was saying, yeah, I'm batting Nathan the order or whatever we're gonna do here. Hey, dude, you're nine and three the last three weeks. I look at the positive. We don't look back. It's what you're doing right now. Why don't it be like Jerome Bettis

and be shut down for fucking 3 quarters and then run 11 yards and start stomping around the stadium? It's what you're doing right now. Why don't it be like Jerome Bettis and be shut down for fucking three quarters and then run 11 yards and start stomping around the stadium. No disrespect to the bus. Although, you know, in defense to him, he had to wear down the defensive line the first three quarters and then he could break free. Maybe that's what's going on.

Oh, by the way, can we talk about this on the show? Some people aren't gonna like me saying this. The college playoff has been a fucking absolute disaster. That's such a poor tape, Paul, come on. It's terrible. Paul, give him a fucking break, okay? What is Thursday Night Football? Is that good?

No. No. No, the C-Hawks is watching Kansas City Chiefs football, is that good? No. They had a CWC was stuck last night. Is watching Kansas City Chiefs football that good? No. They had a bad weekend, Paul. I'm going to tell you right now, this isn't like the WNBA where it's just going to suck forever.

This is college football. They're going to get it right. And that fucking Lane Kiffin, bit, moan, and then complain. It's like, dude, you had three losses! What did Lane Kiffin say? He's like, oh, wow, this is so exciting. He's literally biting the hand that feeds. Lane Kiffin, the guy who went to Tennessee, the volunteers, and said he was gonna take him

to the promised land. He meets one whore at a Waffle House. The next thing you know, he's going to USC to fall on his face out there in the palm trees. He was terrible at USC. Yeah, and then he scurries back underneath Nick Saban at Alabama, rides his coattails for a few years, and all of a sudden he's in Mississippi.

And now he's feeling smart because no one can read in that state. And all of a sudden he's fucking tweeting out there. No, I'm kidding. I like Mississippi. I'm not going to say I love it. No, I'm kidding. I like Mississippi. I'm not gonna say I love it. It's a little hot. I was so excited to watch those games

and I was like, I'm rooting for, I'm like, dude, get a score, get a score, make it close, make it close. Do something, do something. But maybe this week will be better. It's gonna be amazing this week. Yeah. The Rose Bowl will be great. And I'm gonna tell you right now,

when Ohio State plays Oregon, That's gonna be a game. That's gonna be a game. But I think I like Oregon. You? Um, I'm too fucking biased. I just love seeing Buckeye fans sad because they're always whining about something. I do like that their coach is starting to win again. You see Dave Portnoy fed the plane

saying to extend that guy's contract? The head coach of Iowa State. I think this weekend college football is going to be fantastic and I think the playoff is amazing. The only thing that is bad about it was I saw this CEO come on and saying how it was going to open up the opportunity for these college football teams to be up for sale. Yeah, exactly. It's just like, do you have to own everything? Can you just leave something alone? There should be a rule. You can't buy like Dave Portnoy should be able to invest in the fucking, you know, Wolverines. You know, he's going to do

the fucking right thing. By the way, I got to shout out Dave Portnoy for what able to invest in the fucking, you know, Wolverines, you know he's gonna do the fucking right thing. By the way, I gotta shout out Dave Portnoy for what he did. I'm sure you guys all saw it. That pizza review thing he did in Baltimore, man, when the guy was like, Christmas is our last day, and he was like, why? I heard the pizza's good. And he's like, nah, we can't,

we can't get our liquor license, we can't afford it. So Portnoy goes outside, he does the pizza review. He likes the pizza He says it's good And then he asked the guy what's it gonna take for you to stay open at least another year and the guy's like, whoa I mean, I don't know. I don't I can't answer he goes Well, you got a rich guy in front of you and you don't want him to walk away So what's it gonna take and he goes I guess I I mean I guess we could get our liquor license to stay open a year With like 60 grand he goes. And he shook his hand.

And then after he did that, there's a line around the fucking block for the place. And he saved the business, dude. Dave Portnoy, man. I got to be honest. No, I good guy, man. No, here's the thing, dude. That's what we should be doing for each other. We're all sitting around, myself included, bitching about politicians and everything. We all have the ability to help each other out and just go to each other's businesses.

Fuck these box stores and all of this, you know, as much as you can. I mean, they got a pretty good foothold in the in the towns and everything, but there's no reason why you can't do stuff like that. He's a man of the people. He is. Shout out to Dave Portnoy. Yeah, shout out to Dave Portnoy. He started something from nothing and he's crushing it. Good for him. Yeah, and what about all the stuff he did during the pandemic, helping all of those? Thousands of businesses.

Yeah, and then those fucking assholes tried to cancel him like two or three times, but they were fucking with the wrong guy. Oh, I love that. I love that he doesn't give up. Oh, and he called up that lady at the newspaper? Oh, the guy you write the article on. And then you listen to her like, the were like, you know, you read a newspaper, you think somebody on the other end, it's gonna sound a little, you know, a little more eloquent than you do. No, she did. I was like, you write for a newspaper. He had her dead to write. And

dude, Barstool is great. He's got great shows on Barstool. But you know, he doesn't have Oh, he doesn't have handy. He doesn't have handicappers like a big. I know. Well, I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know what their

records are over there. I'm not for sale. All right. Um, Jake, the snake. Tell us the injury reports going into week 17. What are we looking at? Who's out? Well, can I relatively healthy week but the big one

is Jalen hurts is still not been cleared. He had a concussion last week against Washington. And the Eagles arresting everybody anyway, because the Eagles don't don't have anything to play for. Not true. Because if they don't win this game, the commanders can still win the division. But I think if they win it, they clinch. So they need to win one more game.

Oh, they got one more. Okay. Yeah. So Oh, no, that's right. When they play the Giants next week, they don't have anything to play for if they were okay. Got it. They beat the Cowboys, which the Cowboys you know, they they burned me bad last week against the Bucks. So I don't think they're an easy out anymore. Washington commanders, the Washington commanders are starting to creep to the door. Yeah, I love watching Jayden. They're not knocking on it yet, but they're at the welcome mat. You know what they're doing? They're lurking. Yes.

They're suspicious. They're sort of pacing in the street, waiting to come up the walk. They're not in the club, but they're going like this past the red rope asking what's going on in there. No, no, no, my friend. My friend's already inside.

My friend's inside. It's not last call. It's not last call. My girlfriend's in there. No, no, no, my friend, my friends already inside. It's not last call. It's not last call. My girlfriend's in there. A lot of people's girlfriends. My girlfriend's in there. I'll be right back.

I'll be right back. I just need to take a piss. I just need to take I don't want to do it on the side of your establishment. You know, you get all eloquent when you're drunk. I would never disrespect you start you start using that mental law degree that you have on the premises of this establishment I don't want to desecrate it oh by the way dude what's his name horrible what happened at Tank Dell dude wide receiver rookie wide receiver second year wide receiver I'm gonna tell you what, I'm

gonna tell you what, I'm gonna tell you what, I'm gonna tell you what, I'm gonna tell you what, I'm gonna tell you what, I'm gonna tell you what, I'm gonna tell you what, I'm gonna tell you what, I'm gonna tell you what, I'm gonna tell you

what, I'm gonna tell you what, I'm gonna tell you what, I'm gonna tell you what, I'm gonna tell you what, I'm gonna tell you what, I'm gonna tell you what, I'm gonna tell you what, I'm gonna tell you what, I'm gonna tell you what, I'm gonna

tell you what, I'm gonna tell you what, I'm gonna tell you what, I'm gonna tell you what, I'm gonna tell you what, I'm gonna tell you what, I'm gonna tell you what, I'm gonna tell you what, I'm gonna tell you what, I'm gonna tell you what, in and his knee was just just got and dude you know when it's bad is when the teammates start crying and kneeling like immediately dude it was like it was fucked man and that kind of did the Texans in because they don't have Stefan Diggs now they don't have him and they had a really good good season but I think that's gonna be too much to overcome so never want to see that man

wish that guy nothing but the best fucking I love that guy small Slapback terrible. That's not important in some reporter. Just CJ Stroud shit for crying at the press conference Let's see what you've cried about in your time, you know So he cried instantly because that was his go-to he saw it and he just got on his knee and started crying Yeah, I mean they said dislocated knee torn ACL MCL LCL. So yeah, it's like a year and a half. If Jake if you fell off your chair right now and you went

down for the rest of the season, we're crying. Oh, 100%. And the overall victories go down. Yeah, by the way, I'm going to say Andrew Thamelis is the Josh Allen of this podcast where he's killing it in the Mountain West region. And the Scouts aren't on him. He goes up to the pros and he dominates. Jake the Snake is the West Coast kid. He's out there in San Diego slinging it. Everybody sees that game. East Coast games, a little Midwest, and then they skip the mountain

and then they go right to the West Coast and that's your fucking Saturday. Yeah, definitely old- Mimilis is out there in Wyoming, throwing it all over the yard. Yeah. Yeah. I'm flailing in the ACC.

Who goes first this week? I think you. It's an even week. It's an odd week. I think Bill. So it was. Yeah, Bill. You're odd looking. I think you go first, Bill. All right, Paul. You know what I like this time of year. Oh You know what? I like I like points Because I feel that teams cover in the first couple of quarters and then they're like, alright, we got to rest this guy We don't want to fucking have any injuries

So the Panthers have been in it explicitly Scoring points lately. I don't know why. I love Baker Mayfield. I love that guy. Because I know every success he has, Colin Cowhert has to be, oh man, I'm gonna have to say I was wrong, which I've never seen him do.

That's what I'm rooting for. But I gotta take, I gotta take the Panthers, get Nate. You know, they're in the same division. Paul, they play each other two times a year. They know it's all about the points. I feel like Baker Mayfield's going to get them up and at some point they're going to take them out of the game.

Although they're going to have to fucking pull them off the field like a pit bull fucking clamp it down on a mailman's leg though. I don't think he's going to want to come out. Panthers, Panthers won too. Panthers are starting to play better. Yeah. Hey, you know, this is what Paul, here's the classic cliche. I don't know what's in the water down there in North Carolina. I'm taking the Panthers getting eight only because they're getting eight. That's it Paul. I'm done trying to fucking name players. All right, well, here's my lock of the week. I'm trying to ****

Good, dude. He was good. He was not scared at the Super Bowl. You know, having fun. I'm going to ride out the team that is is is playing for their lives and playing better. I'm going to take Joey B and the Cincinnati Bengals minus three and a half. Oh, you've been riding the Bengals, dude. I just think that they came on late and they still have a chance. They're in the hunt, as they say, and they're home. And the Broncos have not, every time you think the Broncos are going to turn that corner with Bo Nicks, it's just not happening.

It's just not happening. Paul, is there anything you like better than a team playing for its playoff life? As a favorite, no. All right, I'm going with the New England Patriots at home. life as a favorite? No. All right, I'm going with the New England Patriots at home. Fuck this bread. They're gonna win this game. Oh, they're gonna win this game. Plus four

and a half and I'm gonna find a fucking bar somewhere to watch this goddamn game because I can't go a whole season not see a game. I have to see this game by hook or by crook. I got to figure it out. That might be

televised bill that's actually yeah. Game. Yeah and it's a Saturday game tomorrow that's a Saturday game yeah the first three are Saturday games how do they say where we come from.

Say. No there's no constant say Andrew why don't you come over on say that'll be on at ten am there's no there's no constant. Hey, Andrew, why don't you come over on Saturday? That'll be on at 10 AM, Bill. It's either Saturday or Saturday. Dude, I like the

Chargers in that game, but I don't know. Hold on here. Well, Jake, didn't you say that they gotta they need that right to clinch? Oh, Paul, it's the holidays. You're really gonna go head to head with me. Make it fun, though? Hey, Paul, you're playing with house money. Hey, who am I?

I'll tell you this, Paul, next time we do a gig in Vegas, those Bet MGM guys ought to come out and fucking genuflect, or at the very least offer you a job at the MGM handicapping games. We've got to get this kid on our side. Just give me like a $100,000 marker. Let me go have fun. They try and distract them.

They bring them over to a slot machine with a space on it. They're like, no, no, no,,000 marker. Let me go have fun. They try and distract them. They bring them over to a slot machine with a space on it. They're like, no, no, no, come over here. Come over here. By the way, how underrated is the scene in Casino when the Asian billionaire comes off the plane and they acted like they grounded the plane because something was wrong with the plane.

And Don Rickles goes, hey, you know, better down here than, you know, up there. Yeah, but he goes, then, you know, better down here than, you know, up there. Yeah. He goes with his head up there. The best. I don't know. I'm going to think about the Chargers thing because I did like the Chargers, but the Patriots are scaring me right now. All right. Let's do. Is Michael Pennex, Jr. and the Falcons.

He looked really, really good, but I'm gonna take the Washington Commanders. Minus four at home, because they look really fucking good, and they're also playing for the division still. It means a lot, so I'm gonna take them. Minus four at home. Oh, I got two home favorites. I know you do. All right, I'm gonna take that minus four at home. Oh I got two home favorites. I

know you do. All right I'm gonna take the Eagles at home laying seven against the Cowboys. Oh that's a great one. Because I think Nick Soriano is an emotional wreck and he's gonna need to destroy this team in order to sleep at night. I just feel like he's he said he's just had a fucking bipolar trip, I don't know, since the ending of last season. And I think that it's not going to just be enough to beat this team. I think they need to beat the fuck out of them and they need to get some momentum going into it. I know that they're winning and that type of stuff, but I just think that they're going

to, he doesn't want to slow it down. I think the ending of last season is haunting him. And I think he puts his head on the pillow at night, and he has one of those knitted caps with the pom-pom on top of it, and he pulls it down over his face. And his wife's going, Nikki, Nikki, it's gonna be okay. It's gonna be okay.

No, I know, no, I know. Well, let me see your eyes. I can't see your eyes. No, I just, you know. What's going on under there, Nikki? Oh, you know, I'm just thinking about stuff. Yeah. Dude, what, Bill, imagine Nick Suriani and Rex Ryan on the same coaching staff.

Dude, I love those guys because how do you not see yourself in them? Yeah. They're emotional wrecks. They win, they're like, ah! They lose, they got their fucking head in an oven. Who doesn't relate to that? Emotional torture. That's why we all drink.

That's why people eat gummies. That's why people watch sports. Yeah. Yeah, that's true. They really are like two guys that were fans at a tailgate that just got handed a headset. We're gonna kick their fucking ass. Yeah. I can't tell if they were not hugged or hugged too much.

Something happened. Their fucking equilibrium. Me, I was like, I came from the, you know, take care of it yourself generation. I think Rex probably not hugged because... Yeah, Buddy Ryan was out there coaching and all of that shit. But I think Nick Sorrioni might have been a little coddle. I also think if your dad... Manja, manja!

Mike, I can't eat anymore! I think that if your dad was like a tough coach in the NFL there's kind of a chip on your shoulder because probably people were like oh the kid's not gonna be like buddy you know I don't know unless unless his dad was like fucking pesky in casino and he came home and he always made him pancakes yeah maybe that's why he had the weight issues because that was his only connection with his dad, was breakfast.

And I feel like if I make a big breakfast, my dad's going to come through the door. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Uh. All right, let's keep going here. All right, so what did I? I just took the commanders. Yeah, you had two more. Wait, do I go now? No, Bill just took the Eagles. I just took the commanders. Yeah, you have two more. Wait, do I go now? No, Bill just took the Eagles. I just took the Eagles.

Okay. I mean, dude, I'm making nuts. At some point, I got to take it. Sorry, probably. You like that one? Paul? What's that? Nuts. Nicky. He's got the balls to go for, but he's also crazy. Works both ways. I like to think are the 49ers

eliminated? They are. By the works both ways I like to think are the 49ers eliminated they are by the way it's another why does this stadium look like Paragon Park to me this looks like an old fucking roller coaster what was wrong with candlestick I mean I guess it was old but you know yeah that's what's wrong with it is these fucking billionaires see another you know somebody else has a new stadium. They gotta have one. Yeah No charm to Levi's Stadium is uh, what what is the Arizona Cardinals eliminated? Uh, yeah, they are Questions pick a fucking team over here I'm just taking too many points the Lions have a lot to play for if you're thinking about that game.

I'm gonna take the Chargers, go head to head with Bill. Yeah, go Chargers. I'm gonna take the Chargers. You know, Paul, the old me would have taken that personally, but I don't. No, I liked it from the gate. No, Paul, you said what you said. You said what you said. I liked it from the gate.

I'm gonna walk away. But I don't like that I have all favorites. This is like old me. Yeah. Yeah. All right. This is the stupidest thing I'm ever going to say. I'm going to take the Jets getting nine going into Buffalo. You know, Buffalo's coming off that scary game against the Patriots. I just still think these teams, they're going to fucking kick the shit out of them. Then they're going to sit there started down. And then here comes the old man, under center, seeing his breath. Blue, 54, right? I might regret that one. The Enigma. Is it Jets? I'm gonna take the Jets. Well, I'm gonna do something stupid and something I haven't done in a long time.

Oh, big favorite. He's taking the Giants. I'm gonna take the Giants, getting seven and a half. I don't think they're gonna win the game. I don't think they're gonna win the game, because I do think that in some way they are kind of phoning it in to get that pick. But I think that they're gonna be, they're gonna play and probably lose by a touchdown.

So I like the half a point. Oh, you guys are well on your way to the said it's first time in Giants history as painful as the stat is, it's really impressive. You guys lost 10 games in a row. You've never done that. And it's our 100th season and we haven't won a game at home. Well, the fact that it took a century for that to happen, I felt like that happened to the Patriots a whole bunch when I was a kid. Paul, your Giants pick here is in direct correlation to you having already beat the book. Just a little bit, right? Just a little bit? A little bit.

Let me ask you this, Paul. Are you guys going to draft another quarterback? And do you still go Ivy League? And if you do, are we going to Cornell this time? No, we are going Cam Ward at University of Miami or Deion's son, Shador Sanders in Colorado. Hi. Hey, didn't one team say that they were gonna...

Oh, no, if the Eagles... Which, this doesn't make sense now, I guess, because that affects their placement, but if they threw the game, they could do it so that it would remove the Giants from getting the first pick. Did I hear that or read that correctly? If the Eagles win this week, they're going to arrest everybody against the Giants and basically they're saying let the Giants win so the Giants don't get the first pick and they drop to like the eighth pick, which is such a bitch

move. Yeah. It's almost like a hit and run back too. I think you'll be all right. Karma, don't fuck them. Yeah, you know something, a lot of times, you know, those first couple guys don't work out. Yeah.

Yeah. A lot of times they don't. A lot of times because they're going to a team that has no offensive line and they've just run for their lives like RG3. Yeah. and I just want to throw it right now. All right, I'm gonna take the charges, let's go. And Jake's taking the charges. Oh my God, we got a civil war going on here. Whoa! Whoa! Good call there. This is a first, I love it. You can put me down for the bangles too, by the way,

while you're at it. Thatta boy, Jake. Oh! Jake is dialed in, he just fucking rattled off two quick checks. Hey, you know what, Paul? I had the cheats, but I forgot to text him. Oh!

Now, John? I'm taking the Colts. I'm in the championship for my fantasy league this year. I'm in the championship game this week, so I had Lamar. He had moms. Nobody wants to hear about fantasy. But I got the Colts defense, and I picked them because I think they're going to demolish the Giants. So I'm doubling down.

So anyways, dude, Lamar Jackson is what was he 13 yards away from Mike Vic career? Lamar Jackson, like Lamar Jackson does what Mike Vic does and throws stays in the pocket and throws darts to. Yeah, he's unbelievable. He's the most exciting NFL player in the league, I think. Him and Josh Allen, I on my who the hell's Lamar Jackson The Ravens quarterback. Oh the Ravens quarterback. All right, I don't look at him every week. I fucking forget their names Jalen Hurts Lamar Jackson Joe Sizeman's down there in Washington, right?

Ron Jaworski, yeah, Jake you got any others you We could still name the starting quarterbacks in 1978 throughout the whole league still Bill Cowers crushing it with Steelers still When I first started watching football the quarterbacks in my division were Burt Jones with the Colts Bob Greasy Steve with the Dolphins Steve Grogan Joe Ferguson and Richard Todd Dude Burt Jones is the fucking that name is unbelievable Burt Jones was great and I swear to God this I there's no way you convinced me that he wasn't related to Bob Avelini the quarterback for the The Bears when they first got Walter Payton, they had Virgil Livers and all of those guys

pre Mike Singletary, I want to say. And I've never known, have you ever known a Virgil? No, but like black guys have always had cool names. Those are now old school black guy names. Virgil, Haywood. Dude, Virgil is unbelievable. Virgil, Virgie. Leon, Bray. Oh, Virgil is unbelievable. Virgil. Leon. Ray. Are they great names? Uh that's great. Alright. So, dude, we got a lot of head to heads this week everybody.

Heywood. Oh, Heywood. Heywood Jones. Heywood Johnson. Dude, that's like. They were fucking great names. Ugh. Those aren't great names. Yep, Leon, bunch of Leon, Daywoods, and then like White Knight in fact, they were just the names that I had. A lot of Roberts. What? Wait a minute, no Virgils or White?

Bobby. Dude, the names, the first names of the quarterbacks in my division were Bob, Bert, Steve, and Richard. What are the names now? Drake? Lamar?

No, no, in the fucking AFC East. Tua and Josh. Tua, Drake. Josh and Aaron. That's why I can't remember the names Paul. and Drake I can't remember the names fall like these fucking names these names even the white guys have exotic names Drake I never met a Drake. It's high alive. I've never met a white guy or anybody named Drake Drake may Drake may yeah, I would have thought that was his whole last name.

Like Michael Drake May. No, that's my name. Drake May. Oh, okay. They must think old guys like me. What's your name? Bill? What about the NFC North? You got Jamis, Lamar.

Lamar is a great name, even though I couldn't remember who he was. Russell. And Jordan. Yeah, those names just, they might have been, no. I knew a Jordan, but that was his last name. Wait a minute. His first name was Rob. Wait a minute, a white guy can't be named Virgil?

White Earp's brother's name is Virgil. I've only seen one Virgil my whole life and that was Virgil Livers. There's a wrestler Virgil I believe Rest is Soul. Yeah. What did you say Wyatt Earp's brother? Yeah Virgil. I mean in the movie it was. Here's another old school black guy named Floyd.

Floyd Little that's a great fucking name. That's a name you gotta bring back. Floyd's great. Floyd, you got to name a baby that has that old soul vibe. Vibe coming in the room. I remember probably thinks Floyd Mayweather now though. Lydell. Lydell. That was a good name.

Lydell. That's nice. Clyde. Clyde was a great one. Clyde was a great one. Been old school. Listen to the old basketball. Larry. Bob McAdoo. Kevin. The only cool like really a Julius. How cool is that? Julius Irving. That was a great name. And then you got into the 80s, those players and you had the new ones that had a little bit of more flair like Dominique. Dominique Wilkins. That was a great name. Dominique Wilkins is maybe the that's a that's maybe the best. The human highlight film. Yeah. Dominique Wilkins might be the best basketball name of all time. Oh, by the way, we got to do a shout out here.

Rest is soul to the greatest, greatest lead off baseball hitter ever. Oh my God. Ricky Anderson. I'm gonna put my hood down for that one, dude. Yeah, first time I saw him, he was playing for the Yankees in the mid 80s. After he had gone, he ran with the Yankees in the mid 80s after he had gone

He ran with the A's and broke the stolen bass record and dude. I remember he got on first base I came up with a single or a walk and that was the years where you it was You walk the guy you gave him a triple So the place was electric. Nobody was looking at the pitcher Everybody was watching him and he had that little side to side thing that he was doing Even his side to side motion seemed like like the fastest thing you fucking saw it was almost like, you know When Tyson used to when when you would walk in slip your punches and then give you the double hooks and the overhand, right? He was he was fucking

Electric when he was on the base paths you just it was you almost like rooted for him to get on because you wanted to experience it. I tweeted after he passed away. I said, Ricky Henderson was truly the first exciting athlete I ever saw. It was 1985, 1986, 1987, whatever it was with the Yankees. And me and my brother would just laugh every time he stole. We'd look at each other and laugh because everybody knew, like you said, when he got on, it was not, he wasn't staying there. And, um, yeah, I loved Ricky Henderson, dude.

And, you know, it's funny when I went to Cooperstown, I didn't realize that when you go to Cooperstown, I thought, Oh, getting in the hall of fame. I, I, I thought it meant just being your name in there. When they say get in the hall of fame, it means actually have the plaque and the, and the whole thing there. But when you walk through the wings of Cooperstown, the one thing that I remember was every time I would see a category, whether it was slugging percentage, stolen bases, hits, Pete Rose and Ricky Henderson were one through three almost on every

category through the hallways of the Hall of Fame. Such an amazing player. Some argue the greatest. Most lead off home runs of all time, most stolen bases, probably arguably, other than Pete Rose, he's gotta be two to like games played, played appearances, you know, at bats. I forget, one of those baseball analysis on ESPN was

listing all of the things that he was number one in. It's incredible. Yeah, it's incredible. And to talk about gone way too young. Yeah. Because I want to all Yeah, he played three played 3081 games. He was born in 58. So his birthday must be right here at the end of the year because he would have been 56. He said, if my uniform doesn't get dirty,

I haven't done anything in the baseball game. Someone also brought up what a great defensive player he was, too. He's what's new from today's game, you know? Someone with a personality like that. What he did to the strike zone is nuts. He would get so low, dude, he made the strike zone his own. He would be, if you watch how low he would get,

he would bend his knees and he actually made it for, he made it for him. Yeah, dude, that guy was just, everything he did was fast. The way he hit a home run, the way he would snap, snap and flip the bat was fast. Everything was just fast. And he was all fucking muscle. He wasn't like the 80s with the skinny legs, dude.

He was like, he looked like a fucking running back. His thighs were, he had thighs like, um, Andrew, let me, I know how many, hold on. I'm gonna list mine and then everybody else could do it, but just tell me, you have them all? I'm looking at it. So I, yeah. All right. So I'm going to say obviously Oakland, New York. He played for Boston. He played for the angels. He played for... Come on, you're missing a big one in there. Yeah, there is.

Hold on, he played for the Padres? Yeah, he might have won a World Series at the place I'm thinking of. He didn't play for the Dodgers, did he? He did play for the Dodgers. That was his last team. That was where he retired. A missing one? Yep. Oh, Canada.

Oh, he played for the Blue Jays. In 93. That was when they played the Phillies. Or was that 92? Dude, that's nine teams right there. I think you're missing the Mets, too. Yeah, he played for the Mets. I don't want to see that. Did he play for the Red Sox?

Yeah. that's. I don't want to see that. Did you play for the Red Sox? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Then when his baseball career was over in major leagues, he went to like the Newark Bears. Oh, here we go. Oh my god. That's a lot of teams. Dude, he was on Oakland five times. Yeah, five. I thought it was the the

the the the the the the the Wait, what was his first year? Yeah, what was his first year? 8, 4, 5 times. So he played like 25 years. He played from 79 to 03?

That's insane. Dude, I was one years old when that guy started playing baseball. Yeah. God rest his soul. Dude, 65 pneumonia, it's like... It's awful. Yeah. Ten thousand almost eleven thousand

at bats. Three thousand fifty five thousand hits. Two twenty one almost twenty two hundred walks. Yeah. The walks are insane. Dude. His overall batting guy number two. Stolen bases. No one's breaking that. Dude his his overall batting average for all those teams even in his old age to almost two eighties nuts. the home runs and those all lead off or later in his career was he down. In the order a little bit.

I think those are that was that was another thing that was great is when he came to town. You know you didn't have to wait to see him he was the first guy up that he was born on Christmas. I asked him right now he was

born on Christmas nineteen fifty eight. Yeah Jimmy Fox great related Jimmy Fox. Great name. Related Jimmy Fox is a great name. Related Hall of Famers. Yeah. Wow, wow. Rest in peace to Ricky Anderson. Yeah. Uh. I know this is going to sound dumb, but like when I heard pneumonia, I was just like, dude,

so many people this year getting like, that's like still fucking getting people man. It's always pneumonia is always gets people you knew I turn up a newborn who had pneumonia just passed away. Yeah, pneumonia gets you. I had it in 2022. It's crazy. I just had it early this year. Yeah, Lucas had it early this year, dude.

He was coughing for like four weeks. It freaked me the fuck out. It's just it's brutal. One week into a cough. You got to get them there because I think it ends up it ends up developing into it is what happened to me. What's the difference between a lung infection and pneumonia? Like what? I don't want to know. I have no idea. Yeah, I know what I know what I just know what it feels like When you have pneumonia be coughing so much it like hurts to cough Like a whole fucking throat is just like if I cough one more time I think I think my whole fucking insides are gonna come out Yeah, let's let's let's get to the Monday night special. Let's turn this puppy around.

Death and pneumonia into Monday night football. Here we go. It's a metaphor for the football season coming drawing. Yeah, dying. But football's still going until the middle of February, so don't start fucking crying. They're just weeding out all the fat chicks. It's going to be nothing but lean and mean now.

Don't worry. It's going to be longer next year when they add another game. No, they're not. They probably are. I hope they vote against that. They're playing through, yeah, they're gonna play through March. Well, I don't know about that, but close. Was anybody subscribed to leave them wanting more? Chiefs have played every day of the week this year except, I think it was Tuesday, so pretty

impressed, which is crazy. They're just so greedy, but whatever. Wow, that's funny. Yeah. That's amazing. They're the first team ever that's gotten away with holding on six out of seven days. They have one loss,

they haven't scored over 30 points in a game all year. That's a prophet. That MGM should put that as a prophet. Did you see the stats for Netflix? Under over holding, non-holding calls for the Chiefs. On Tuesday. All right. Let's do it.

What do we got, Andrew? It's Lions, Niners. Niners are getting 3 and 1 half over, Under's 50 and 1 half. Lions are going to beat them. Oh, wait. Did we hit the Monday Night Special? Last week. We did. Last week, let me pull that up. We took the 14 and a half points? No,

we said that they were going to cover, they did. We took the Saints to cover. You sound like an old lady right now when you catch getting the wrong change back like no No, you lost because the Saints didn't score a point. No, we didn't take the Saints Would we take do we take Green Bay? We said Green Bay was gonna be 20. That's right. Yeah, Jesus Jesus we won last week. We won the spread. Whoa For no, we said I was 8% on the fucking Monday night special. Wait, no, no, no, we gotta find out. Did the running back score a touchdown? Oh, did I celebrate too soon?

It's going to review. It's a review. Did Josh Jacobs score a touchdown last week for the Green Bay? I think he did. Okay. I'm gonna check, I'm gonna check. This'll be the third one, this'll be.

Paulie's already backpedaling down the court. That ball is going in. He did score a touchdown, I don't know what the third like was though. All right, so we had Josh Jacobs, we had, and we had Jordan Love to throw one? Did Jordan Love throw one, if he did, we did it. Jordan Love passed the two-year touchdown.

Yeah, we did it. Not only did we go 12 and four, but we hit the special. Oh, we're coming strong at the end. We're killing it. All right, let's go. We've never hit two specials in a row, Paul. Let's do this. And if we hit one more special, we tie our record for the year we always did it. So we got to get this one. What is our record? Four? I think we hit four in a year. All right. All right. So I love the Lions to beat them up bad.

The 49ers aren't playing for anything. They're probably banged up. They're resting and the Lions... They're playing for respect. And the Lions got to get home field. I say we take the Lions and the. Yeah. What happened there Paul?

He had a little fucking cardiac episode? God forbid. You got all choked up. You believe in this bet so much, man. You're making me tear up over here. I just think they're gonna close a straw. Imagine I just. I like the Lions.

I love Jared Goff. I think he's the most underrated quarterback in football. I really do. I'm finally somebody fucking saying that. They're saying something about him. What are you talking about? He's playing for the Lions and he's killing it. That was a great trade for both teams. Even though the Rams aren't doing that well, they got their ring. Now it's the Lions turn. You like that storyline cuz I know what I love if If Jared goth wins a Super Bowl this year him and Matt Stafford go to a bar together have a beer they clink And they go we did it. That's a good commercial. That's good. That's a great commercial that that just remind me of a bird magic Yeah, well they got him together to play the 101. Oh nobody remembers it. All right, let's go Okay, so we're taking the Lions laying that the It's the funniest shit ever. When they go, they're acting that fat baseball player. What do you eat? You know, a lot of, whatever,

something, bowls or whatever. They just cut to themselves. Guy ain't eating. This guy's eating burgers. I can't do it. Look at this guy. That's how I tell you. He's like running out of air.

What about when he was going through the chocolates and he was just like, Creme bruh. Look at this guy eating meatballs. Dude, I drive my wife nuts with that shit. Whenever those videos come up at night, I am like fucking dying laughing. It's like, I get it. I get it. I'm like, this isn't that fun. This is fucking hilarious. It's so funny. Hey Jake. I get it. I'm like, this isn't that fun. It's fucking hilarious.

It's so funny. Hey Jake, I think that's out. Did you see those guys who did the croissant video? No. Oh my God. They go in and they're like Americans, but they're going, can I get a croissant? And they start going, croissant, croissant. They're still doing all this thing and they're yelling across the street, croissant. The guy goes, I love you. He goes, he goes, croissant. Nice.

Then they're all fucking nervous because he's the real deal. And they start playing that. I don't know who plays the song you know that Whatever that old school Started doing this trash metal thing saying quest on it's fucking amazing. No, that's great.

everything is a whole act and everything was tight as a drum and not only is that but like his interaction with the band and I just can't imagine you know I said it to like comedians and musician friends of mine and all the musician friends were like dude if I had a gig and I had to listen to Rodney and knew that you know I had to play some drums at that point he goes that I would be fucking fulfilled as a musician oh yeah all right let's finish it so we got we got the Lions laying three and a half we got golf to throw one yeah that's a good call.

That's how dumb, that was really saying how dumb the lives are though in that movie. Dude, too brassy was my fucking favorite. Let's just say she has that,

she's not gonna shut the fuck up in her voices that, that that on that the rarity, yeah, rare female voice that no matter what registered that person has a complete inability to give you a hard on. It doesn't even make sense. You know what we saw? I saw a bird. I saw a wife ruin her. I saw a wife ruin her invitation to my house forever. Hey Paul, he could have stopped at wife. I saw wife, right? It was over. What they do Paul, we say dumb shit and they ruin good times. I mean it's just, it is what it is. Oh I thought you meant saw the wife like she was, hey
