Starting point is 00:00:00 pkn 474 how are you boys very well very well we're talking about a little baseball today taylor and i was very excited about the braves they're breaking all sorts of records they're they're honing in on the single season home run record for a team which is 305 for the twins they said it in 2019 that was a year that they juiced the ball so it's kind of a silly record before that it was like 268 i think the yankees had that like just a few years prior to that and then a few teams were like verging on it but the braves have like i don't remember exactly 275 i'm gonna call it 275 like they're second all time already my question is their trajectory to break it, or do they have to have a few good games?
Starting point is 00:00:46 Narrowly. They've got 12 games to hit like 25 homers. They can't have any bad games. As a team, though, and plus you've got five guys on the team with more than 30, I think. Wow. That's a lot. That's a lot.
Starting point is 00:00:59 They're really doing all the heavy lifting. Yeah, but you've got five guys. I mean, there's only so many positions on a baseball team. There's only like nine hitters, right? Isn't that how that works? What's the cycle of nine? If five of the nine have 30 home runs this year, that... Are there only nine hitters for the whole baseball game?
Starting point is 00:01:18 Well, I mean, if everything... All right, so they don't have... Do they just do the same nine over and over? I'm realizing I don't know how baseball works. Well, the lineup changes a lot if the pitcher comes out. And then they've now changed the designated hitter rule.
Starting point is 00:01:33 So, yeah, more or less it could only be nine games if nobody moves around. So there's got to be nine hitters. Nine hitters. Why would that be? There's pitch runners, runners i guess there's a pinch runner somewhere who's like yeah they called me up because i'm fast and like all he does is jump in to run for somebody in a really important situation maybe does everybody in the dugout
Starting point is 00:01:55 have to bat every game well if you are a position you can't play the field without batting unless they remove you from the lineup before it's and then they can't put you back into the same position you know does that make sense so like i couldn't have you play in second base because you're just so good at it and then it's time for you to bat when we go on offense oh take taylor out put uh omar in he can follow the swing i want to explain it anymore and i want you to tell me if i have it right yeah they're kind of nine starters and those are the people that play all game and those are the only batters the whole team doesn't bat only the nine sort of starters no no no i'm like all right let me let me do this scenario taylor's playing second base yes we want to take him out of the game because he's hurt
Starting point is 00:02:42 somebody else has to go in and play second base and bat in his slot. Are there only nine field players? At a time, or is it 11? It's nine, roughly. I'm just counting the field position. Zach says there's 10. Four, five, six, seven, eight, nine. Who am I missing?
Starting point is 00:03:04 Catcher. Four plus three in the alley. Nine that field and a DH. Nine. I'm getting... Oh, the designated hitter. Okay. What about field positions?
Starting point is 00:03:15 I wasn't trying to trick you. I was asking how many field positions there were. I didn't... I thought there were like... What was nine? I was thinking of football, and I'm like, there's 11 field people, but only nine people are batting. So I guess you take the two worst, but no, it's nine and nine. Then what the hell is everybody else doing on the bench?
Starting point is 00:03:31 Are they all just backups? Because there's way more than nine people on the bench. Well, there's a lot of people on the team, right? I mean, there's the bullpen. There's the guys who are going to pitch. They're out there. A lot of the pitchers are out there, but all the other starting pitchers are in here.
Starting point is 00:03:45 I could never let any of my St. Louis friends hear this episode. who are going to pitch, they're out there. A lot of the pitchers are out there, but all the other starting pitchers are in here. I could never let any of my St. Louis friends hear this episode. Because people are fucking obsessed with baseball here. You can't bring up the Cardinals in passing without them being like, you see the new guy, Acuna Les? And I'm like, yeah. One of the things that's confusing is...
Starting point is 00:04:02 There's a total, and I guess typically 10 play of those 26. And like Taylor said, it does seem like there's a lot of backups. Now, of course I know pitchers don't play every day, but there's just a lot of backups. Boom.
Starting point is 00:04:16 You know, that, that just seems to be true more so than I think a bigger percentage of the football team will play today. Yeah. I don't know. I know with with college football, there's like 60 guys over there,
Starting point is 00:04:29 and there's a whole two teams worth who sometimes don't play. I would put it like this, I would say. In a standard baseball game, when nobody's coming out, the second baseman's going to finish the game. The pitcher may change. The pitcher will change. Nowadays, maybe two or three times, but nobody else is going to finish the game. The pitcher may change. The pitcher will change.
Starting point is 00:04:46 Nowadays, maybe two or three times. Nobody else is going anywhere unless something comes up. Zach said there's 55 people on a football team, which actually I think I knew. Between the offense, the defense, and the special teams, most of them play.
Starting point is 00:05:04 There probably aren't many people who didn't like need to strap on their cleats that day probably you know maybe the backup quarterback even he i think holds that or something like yeah it seems like modern football there's like four or five guys who run the ball you don't have that one marquee guy so much anymore that's interesting probably smart like they can't risk obviously yeah eggs and baskets and so forth yeah yeah yes there's something about the football has changed since i paid a lot of attention to it which is a long time ago and that the running backs it's like even star running
Starting point is 00:05:39 backs aren't highly valued they never get that second contract they think that all right taylor you may have had you may have been the best in the season this year but if i took another guy i'd hardly have any decline from what you did is the idea in football lately it seems i don't pay much attention to it yeah i tried to watch monday night football the other night and i was like wait like where are the white people there's some aren't't there? Isn't there one? Where is he? Where did y'all hide him? Yeah, you're not going to like basketball very much.
Starting point is 00:06:10 Then they zoomed in on this guy. He had this big stack of papers. He was red in the face. He was having to keep everything organized. He had two headsets on at once. He was dragging a guy. No, no, you go this way, not that way. And he had three fucking clipboards
Starting point is 00:06:26 and there there's a white guy dude it's the absolute inverse of the nhl where the nhl will be like it's diversity night here in detroit versus chicago so we're shining a light on steve johnson who's 132nd black and they're like that's right tom diversity raises its head like there's just every once in a while they get like a like a fully black person they're like look we got a black guy a black guy in the nhl we got him you know show the diversity night show him show the simmons yeah it's because it's so expensive to play. And just culturally, I guess a lot of black people aren't into it.
Starting point is 00:07:08 It's Northern, you know, like it's a Northern culture. There's fewer black people, the further North you go. Yeah, absolutely. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:15 Swimming. I'm sorry. Kyle keeps trying to talk and swimming. It's a winter sport just like basketball is. So a lot of the people that have those like sort of long, lean swimmers, bodies are playing basketball that are black, more money in basketball. basketball is so a lot of the people that have those like sort of long lean swimmers bodies are playing basketball that are black more money in basketball if i were if i had the option unless you're michael phelps level which obviously that guy's probably wealthier than any of the nba
Starting point is 00:07:37 guys save like like lebron because he's got like subway money and that kind of shit but other than that you got to go NBA. Yeah, I bet there's more NBA players. I bet there's a lot of NBA players who are wealthier than... There's more spots. Yeah, but the point stands. They don't leave the tippy-top and swimming to make any money. I was thinking like snowboarding. You've got two options ahead of you.
Starting point is 00:07:58 It's like that meme where you've got the road parks. On the left is being the only black guy in the pool for the rest of your fucking life. On the left is being the only black guy in the pool for the rest of your fucking life. On the right, well, this path has been carved many a time and it always goes well for us. Let's go right. We had a black guy on my college team. He was so fast
Starting point is 00:08:16 and he skipped every fucking practice. We'd like, please come to the meet. This team's hard to beat. Will you come? He'd be like, yeah, yeah, I'll be there. And then you just fucking dominate everyone. That was our- There's no discipline on the college swim team.
Starting point is 00:08:33 Like the coach isn't like, you don't get to swim the first three runs if you're not here for practice or however that would work. No, no, our coach was not like that. He was like, oh, are you fast? You win. Move aside, Taylor. Tyrone here. DeAndre, get out there., are you fast? You win. Move aside, Taylor. Tyrone here. DeAndre, get out there.
Starting point is 00:08:48 What are you thinking, buddy? Get out of his way. I've told you this with the high school hockey team. You're breaking DeAndre's concentration. For my high school hockey team, there were multiple of us, but the only two of us who actually played much higher level hockey than high school was me and this guy, Dan. And and Dan had played on other teams that we played on a lot of teams together. And he's the guy who would show up for high school practice like like fucked up, like drunk high, like not with it.
Starting point is 00:09:20 He would not track with what the coach told him to do for drills. He'd be like, Dan, lead us off. And he'd be like, he like had a phrase that he would only say when he was wasted. And he'd be like, fair enough, fair enough, fair enough. And so like the coach would be like, Dan, that's not the drill. And he'd be like, fair enough, fair enough. And he'd be skating around. But he was so good, right?
Starting point is 00:09:41 He was incredible. He was incredible at hockey. And so like every once in a while a game would come around and they'd be like dan if you're not dressed by the time we're skating out on the ice you're not playing the first period or two periods or something and he was he would like roll in smelling like beer like three minutes before and it's hockey this isn't basketball you put on a lot of equipment in hockey and so he's like like they're about to like start the game and he's still not got his jersey on he's taking his time and he'd get out there and i remember this coach this this fat
Starting point is 00:10:14 piece of shit coach it was his first year and he tried to be a big hardo about it and he was like all right dan you're not playing the first two periods. You're sitting. And after like one period of that, I like in between periods talked and I was like, coach, this is that you're punishing me right now. You're punishing me. Is that what you want to do? I took 21 shots in the first period. You're punishing me for this. You're punishing me.
Starting point is 00:10:38 Please let Dan play. And Dan is like on the bench, like fair enough. Fair enough. And then they would they would let him play sometimes. Dan was hilarious. And I would see him jump out, and I'd be like, yes, Dan's here. Dan's here to help. And he'd get in trouble sometimes because he would skate back around me.
Starting point is 00:11:00 A lot of the goalies in this league sucked so hard that, you know, if you've watched hockey, they'll bring the puck around the boards back behind the net. And most goalies wouldn't even go back there to stop it and set up the play. And I did, I would go back there, stop, set up the play. And I would like set it up for Dan and he'd be like, watch this. I'm going to score. And then, and then he would skate, like he just grabbed the puck and the coach would be like, pass it, pass it. He's like, nope, nope, nope.
Starting point is 00:11:26 And sometimes like he would go into the other team's end and be so determined that he didn't want to pass it. He just wanted to score that he'd be like skating around for like 45 seconds just with him on the puck leading the team around. And then he would score and he wouldn't celebrate with the rest of the team. Like he didn't know them as well as me. He would skate all the way back to my net and be like, I told you, I told you I was going to score, Taylor. And I'd be like, yeah, fair enough, Dan, fair enough. Then he'd skate.
Starting point is 00:11:54 He was a pleasure to have on the ice. And then as soon as he got off, it was like, all right, game face. I'm about to get a lot of shots my direction. Yeah, as the goalie, nothing was worse than when the really good defenseman or forward or something was futzing around. And I'd be like, guys, please, please don't put me in that position because the other defenseman is learned to skate level. I remember
Starting point is 00:12:21 I almost got genuinely upset at this guy once because three times in the same game, they put him on defense for some reason, and he fell over trying to skate backwards and set me up for multiple two-on-os, which is just two guys skating towards me, passing back and forth, and I'm trying to mitigate that and like make most of the
Starting point is 00:12:47 saves because they still weren't great players and then he would skate back and be like good good save taylor and i'd be like get the fuck off the ice get off tell go tell him to put dan in he's like dan plays left wing and i'd be like i don't care let him play defense let him play don't kick him when dan plays i get water breaks dude i i played b league hockey right in north carolina so this is not the high it's like high school level probably talent and uh we were in the championship game the end of the season last game of the year there's no series in b league hockey at least where i played one game winner takes all and the other team had a very good player. He was a professional hockey player the previous year. And when he did dangles and shit, we were just helpless to stop it.
Starting point is 00:13:31 A defenseman should stop a forward, like, would you say two-thirds of the time? That's about right? Yeah, yeah, probably about that. Something like that, yeah. Hopefully more if he's good. Yeah. So this guy, a guy like me would stop him 10% of the time. Like, not 66, but 10.
Starting point is 00:13:44 He showed up to the last game of the year, the finals. And, and the, obviously the need to beat this whole team is to stop him. He was so fucking drunk. He could barely stand for his team's championship. He's using his stick.
Starting point is 00:13:58 It's like a tripod. It's a child learning to skate. And he was still pretty good. But we watched a sixer after the second. It's like a child learning to skate. And he was still pretty good, but we won. He crushed a sixer after the second period. He was still pretty good, though. The first player had really shown. I think he would have lost, but we were the champions.
Starting point is 00:14:16 The chasm, the absolute chasm of skill in men's league hockey is hilarious. Like, you can see the guys who were like, I just wanted to be active. And then you can see the guys who were like i just wanted to be active and then you can see the guys who are like oh that guy oh he's wearing a really ratty boston college jersey with boston college socks like he clearly played on like the best d1 school 10 years ago and then that guy will just run roughshod and then realizing that guy sucked like if you put that guy will just run roughshod. And then realizing that guy sucked. Like if you put that guy in the minor league of the NHL, like the AHL, he'd get butt fucked.
Starting point is 00:14:50 Like the, the skill differences. He, that guy, Paul Bissonette from spitting chiclets, absolute bruiser. Like just all his whole job was to fight and be a good vibes guy. He's said that many times. He's like people,
Starting point is 00:15:03 they kept signing me with the Arizona coyotes. Cause I'm a great vibes guy he's said that many times he's like people they kept signing me with the arizona coyotes because i'm a great vibes guy for me ask anybody who was on the coyotes at that time dude who was always dj in the locker room who was keeping people amped up it was me i was amping people up ask anyone i'm a great vibes guy and during the lockout like he went and played in england like an england professional league like the highest league they have there. And like you check his stats playing in like the NHL and it's like, oh, he played 41 games and he had no goals, one assist, which means that like he probably punched a guy and then quickly passed off to a better player and got lucky.
Starting point is 00:15:39 And in like he was like Gretzky-level stats, professional league in England, where he was like, yeah, I played like 11 games. I had like 25 points. It was awesome. I was scoring at will. It's like, yeah, no shit, dude. That would be so much fun, being the lowest tier of a pro and then going to a worse league and kind of goosing your confidence a bit.
Starting point is 00:16:04 I don't mean to – I really wasn't a special player or anything. But when I went down to the C League or the D League, I felt like that. And not only could I skate circles around people who couldn't skate, but because it takes place on skate, suddenly I'm like a tough guy. You have to understand how good a skater you are translates into how well you would do in a fight where a big part of it is just grabbing the other guy's jersey
Starting point is 00:16:32 and throwing them off balance. So these people who were poor skaters, like they also pose no physical threat and no hockey threat. And it can be kind of fun to play against basically children. Yeah. It's like pub stomping yeah it's pub stomping but they were uh i i like to watch those sports uh youtube channels
Starting point is 00:16:54 and like get the whole story of somebody and i was learning about jamarcus russells who's one of the biggest busts in nfl history um just an incredible player at the collegiate level and then kind of lost they said that he could on from his knees he could throw the ball 70 yards wow that can't be true the coach is like i saw him do it i saw him do it i swear to god it was just like that i can't remember it was either the coach of alabama or like some somebody at the pro level like i saw it. But anyway, it just wouldn't work at all and got real fat and just threw it all away. He had like a $30 million guaranteed contract,
Starting point is 00:17:31 so it's like 30 mils guaranteed? Fuck it. Fuck the other 29 or whatever it was. Or 35 or whatever it was. The coaches said that they gave him a DVD once, and they're like, Jamarcus, look, we know you don't like your classwork. We put tomorrow's offense all on this DVD before we broke it down as 15 minutes, Jamarcus. Memorize this for us tonight. This is you tomorrow. These are your plays. And next day came around, Jamarcus, you watch the DVD? Did you get it all down? They're like,
Starting point is 00:17:59 yeah, coach, I got it all down. Easy peasy. No problem. Like it was a blank DVD. What the fuck are you doing to it? It was blank. It was blank. Didn't even put it in. Wouldn't put any more effort into a job that pays you $60 million. Oh my God. I would at least be going to practice.
Starting point is 00:18:18 I would at least be trying. Wow. Is this him? Yeah. That's him with $30 million. On the left. On the left. Just didn't give a shit. That is you versus the guy she tells you not to worry about. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:18:36 He's drinking protein. Zach, can you find a picture of James Harden being fat? We have a player, James Harden, and he is infamous. This is my team this year for demanding trades. And when he doesn't want to play for you, like his contract's not expired. He can't get a trade. Like all he can do is be terrible. This guy has quit mid game where he'll like the ball will practically hit him in the feet
Starting point is 00:18:59 rolling and he won't pick it up. Um, and, and he'll show up this fat. Look at him. Fucking fatty. And this is how he demands trades. Wait, is this like an aspect ratio thing? That looks a little stretched to me, but it is true.
Starting point is 00:19:17 He gets fat as fuck and makes teams not want him on there anymore. He's a quiet quitter. That's how he forces trades. He's a quiet quitter. That's how he forces trades. He's quiet quitting. Yeah. So he's demanding a trade this year from the Sixers. And they're like, well, we can't get a good player.
Starting point is 00:19:35 No one will give us a player as good as you. Therefore, we're going to make you play this year. And this is what's in our future. Fucking fat. He just gets fat. When this guy moved, when he got traded from Houston, this is the guy where the strip clubs retired his number. It hangs in the rafters at those clubs.
Starting point is 00:19:52 Reddit did a breakdown. Oh, thanks. Reddit did a breakdown. His numbers, like statistics are notably worse in cities where the strip clubs are rated higher. Like it impacts this game. Yeah, that's this guy they gotta trade him to certainly not new orleans i don't know utah they have a team right the utah jazz will be the best jazz player of all time
Starting point is 00:20:17 i was looking at highest concentrations of bars like bars per capita um wisconsin my god you people what's wrong with you um and new orleans is on the list new orleans is on a lot of those top lists like all if you'll look at um it's one of the most dangerous cities in the world in the world it was like uh they showed that map and i don't even know why they zoomed out so much because it's just mexico and new orleans like why are you showing the rest of america like None of that even qualifies. It's all just New Orleans and Mexico. It's like the scariest parts of Mexico
Starting point is 00:20:50 and New Orleans for dangerous. It was like murders per capita or unsolved murders per capita or something scary. Something super scary. I don't know what's going on in Louisiana outside of New Orleans. Baton Rouge, I guess. I don't know what they're doing there right oh i
Starting point is 00:21:07 have no idea i've never stopped anywhere outside i mean you know like to eat but i don't know what any of the other cities in new orleans and uh what's that state called louisiana i would go back just for another like for a food tour because that food was incredible like i would go back just for another, like for a food tour, because that food was incredible. Like I would go just to avoid Bourbon Street and go to that French area where all the restaurants are. That would be nice. It was delicious. Which one's Missouri? Is that the one two states above Louisiana? I think it is.
Starting point is 00:21:39 It is. Yeah. Do you guys not know all your states? I know all my states. I just proved that I do. You know what? Touche. You're right. You know where I stood recently? Do you see on the northwest of Texas where four states are in one spot? There's a national monument there. And I went there and stood in all four states at one time. We were driving home from Utah. It was 18 miles out of the way. And my friend, he called it icing or something. He's like, you want to add a little icing to this frosting? I was like, what? We're 18 miles away
Starting point is 00:22:17 from this monument. And when I was five years old, five, one of my great aunts or something came along with a photo of herself standing on this monument. And somehow, 45 years ago, five, one of my great aunts or something came along with a photo of herself standing on this monument. And somehow 45 years ago, that set this desire to stand there that I had been like waiting on. I was supposed to do it last year on my Colorado trip where I broke my leg, but I had an issue with my front brakes and I had to hit like a dealership to help me fix it. And I missed that part of the trip because that's where the the trip started and uh anyway this year i finally got to stand there 45 years of waiting and i did it it was pretty cool we met a motorcycle there was a motorcycle gang there like all these guys on their harleys and like patched shirts and stuff and we talked to them for a while i think
Starting point is 00:23:00 there's a comedy movie where someone commits a crime there and then they're negotiating with all four jurisdictions. Yeah, they're like standing there and negotiating with all four jurisdictions. Oh, really? Who will lower the charges the lowest gets them. Zach, can you pull that picture up again? I think maybe I'm the only one
Starting point is 00:23:20 who's super excited about this. No, no, no. I went too. Did you go there? I drove from Albuquerque to Denver. And it was like, yeah, why not? So the cameramen's in Utah and New Mexico, Colorado and Arizona, I think, are the other ones.
Starting point is 00:23:36 And you can stand in all four at one time. There's a gift shop. There's so much sky there. If you've lived in a city your whole life, then you just really don't know how big the sky and what the stars actually look like until you go somewhere like that. Look at the horizon. It's just so crazy. It blew me away. Oklahoma has that where I keep saying the same story, but you
Starting point is 00:24:00 look in every direction and the tallest thing spinning 360 is you. I've heard that saying, well, the big sky country. Yeah. I don't know where the sky country is. Yeah, it's Montana. All right. Fair.
Starting point is 00:24:15 But Oklahoma qualifies. I assure you. It's like where I grew up in Georgia. There's not a lot of light pollution, but it wasn't until I went way out in the middle of Texas that i'd seen a starry night with zero light pollution and it's like wow that's a lot of stars that's so many more stars than i knew that there were dry air you're right like i guess that that too it um it's wild out there i would i would sit outside just smoking or drinking or whatever and just staring at the stars for a couple hours every night you can see the uh so the way the you can see the
Starting point is 00:24:45 the milky way galaxy like you can see the the uh the concentration of the the stars in the galaxy like making that stripe through the middle do you think constellations are kind of bullshit clearly what do you all right what do you mean by bullshit clearly constellations are hey that kind of looks like this or that let's name name it this or that. See, I don't even give it that. I don't even give it that credence. Well, let me checkmate you real quick. They don't look like shit. Because different civilizations have called the same constellation
Starting point is 00:25:13 like similar animals through the years. Like everybody saw the grasshopper, right? I don't think so. I feel like they've got totally different. You think the Chinese were like, oh, no, that's the dragon. And then the Europeans were like, oh no, that's the dragon. And then the, the Europeans were like, oh, that's,
Starting point is 00:25:26 that's clearly the donkey man. And then the South Americans were like, that's the Jaguars. Oh, come on. Yeah. Like I would imagine that like Orion's belt, whatever European came up with that one is like probably the exact same thing
Starting point is 00:25:40 is like the, the Egyptian Medusa dragon or whatever the fuck. Like it's like like they just don't look like anything the big dipper looks a little bit like a measuring cup granite checks out orion's belt only the belt part will pass as a belt after that it all seems fucking made up yeah it's like if you can look anywhere in the open sky and redraw it, because there's a billion stars, like if you can see it, you can just make them anywhere. I'm not saying that those, the imagined shapes aren't real,
Starting point is 00:26:12 if you imagine it, but like you can look at, it's like looking at clouds, right? Like you might see something totally different than me. Doesn't mean that you don't see it, but it's we're guessing at it. And those constellations are kind of nonsense. Like look at the, like cancer. different than me doesn't mean that you don't see it but it's we're guessing at it and those constellations are kind of nonsense like look at like cancer does that look like a crab to you or does it look like bullshit in the top cancer is literally the one i was looking up i where is oh
Starting point is 00:26:37 top right i don't see a crab in that in the slightest not at all no leo and like look at like oh that's kind of like a lion no there's a million other stars around it that you could just as easily have drawn to like no one's looking at that and actually i bet if i bounce over to virgo i could draw a lion just i gotta say leo leo being a lion is the closest to any of these being anything libra is closer to a crab than cancer is. What is Libra? Trying to draw a crab is fucking silly. Dude, Taurus is a bull. What the fuck is that up there? That's none of this.
Starting point is 00:27:12 These are trash. Okay, I see the horns. I see the horns, to be fair, but man, we're reaching. Yeah, it's really stupid stuff here. The reason that the Big Dipper works is because it's like, what is a ladle? It's really there's not much to a ladle. When you try and throw a lion out there, a crab, a bull, a set of legal scales, whatever. Hercules.
Starting point is 00:27:36 Look at Hercules. The absolute balls of the guy who called that Hercules. Seven stars kind of together on the left. Not only am I supposed to know that's a man but a specific one yes yeah it's and like that's it it's really stupid because we we either need to totally ditch constellations and come up with a with like better constellations or just admit it's been hokum nonsense the whole time oh i got can see that shit. You know, I'm okay with that. Ursa Minor, that's the little dipper,
Starting point is 00:28:09 right, with the North Star or Polaris or whatever at the end? Yes. I don't know. Why is the North Star always in the same place? It doesn't move in the night. That's a conspiracy. It moves. Does it move? No.
Starting point is 00:28:27 You could have had me. It moves small amounts depending on the borealis. Does Earth's axis change? It definitely changes. Does it wobble in any significant way? Maybe the North Star is not
Starting point is 00:28:44 that precise. I don't know. Like it's close to North. I've never understood that. Because yeah, our axis definitely moves around. I think it's because it's straight through the North. It's like North-North. Like literally, if you're in the North Pole,
Starting point is 00:28:56 it's up from there. Because it's there, it doesn't matter that we are rotating. Because the rest of the night sky, if you watch one of those time-lapse things, it's clearly moving around us. But we don't just like go like this like we kind of we have a little oscillation that way too you know yeah of course we do but not enough for the north star not to be the north these are better constellations oh fuck yeah let's go harry potter constellation i like that i like paddington
Starting point is 00:29:23 that's actually just the boots down there That's good, these are better Actually no, I'm out, Mobot, that's stupid I like Usain Bolt Oh, the shark in my top left might be my very favorite Attenborough? Wait, I don't know why I call it a shark I don't know how
Starting point is 00:29:40 That being Serena Williams is retarded Yeah, just call it call it racket the rest of it you all imagine she's got tits she's like well-defined lats on her left arm i hate that yeah this part of space is fucking stupid just admit it's a bunch of stars and they don't actually look like crabs and lions. I've been watching a ton of like physics and space videos on YouTube lately. And you know how the algorithm works. You get into something and it just helps you dive deeper and deeper.
Starting point is 00:30:15 And I'm discovering that I'm really not smart enough to learn. Like it's, it's holding me back. I, I watch a video about the smallest objects known to man. I walk away having learned 30%
Starting point is 00:30:32 of what they taught me. I'm just like, I lacked the knowledge to learn this knowledge. I'm hoping if I keep watching these videos, my percentage will rise. I'll start watching stuff like that and get sidetracked in my own head about shit they didn't even bring up where i'm like they're like this star has 70 planets around
Starting point is 00:30:51 it it's like man how does that work that's a lot like this is the sort of so i guess they prove that the universe isn't real right and for something to be real, they define it as it is the same whether you observe it or not. And they, I can't explain this because I don't understand it, but there are these pieces of matter where, let's say it was a coin. If you get heads, I'll get tails. Boom. Every time we check yours, I have the opposite. And if I check mine first, you'll have tails. If you check yours first have the opposite and like if i check mine first you'll have tails if you check yours first i'll have heads and um these things can be far apart hundreds of kilometers
Starting point is 00:31:32 apart and they're like okay well since we've proven that taylor observing his sets woodies or vice versa whichever one's observed first then observing changes the state of this thing it's not real and that's that's how they define real it's the state of this thing. It's not real. And that's, that's how they define real. It's the same whether you observe it or not. And you go on a small enough level and these things aren't real anymore. And they're talking about it being a, by the way,
Starting point is 00:31:54 this is Nobel prize winning shit. This isn't Alex Jones level shit. This is like people win Nobel prizes in physics to prove that the universe isn't real. And I'm like, I'm not getting it because it feels so real to me. It's definitely real. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:08 It's, do we just not have the good enough equipment to like really analyze stuff that teeny? Cause like sometimes you get over your skis, you know, thinking you can like observe stuff that you can't. These are the same thoughts I have when I learn it. Like,
Starting point is 00:32:20 well, are you sure what you're saying is right? And, uh, who's the guy with the like really great British accent and really really bad hair he's been on the jre a couple times not the not david attenborough he's younger than that i think he teaches at oxford but i'm not sure i don't know i haven't listened to a fancy british man on rogan before is he a space like a space in that astrophysicist or something yes brian cox is his name yes thank you and uh you got to check out brian cox on youtube he's okay uh
Starting point is 00:32:53 just he's such a genius it's amazing but in addition to being a genius he's a really good teacher so he can take regular people like me and help me understand a good bit of it and like gravity isn't what i thought it is but i don't know that i fully understand like were you what can take regular people like me and help me understand a good bit of it and like gravity isn't what i thought it is but i don't know that i fully understand like were you what what i think it was gravity what i don't get gravity either like yeah gravity i thought it was what newton said which is basically an object has mass and when an object has mass it pulls another object towards it if you have a lot of mass and i have a little mass then you pull me towards you a lot and i pull you towards me a little and it all makes sense apparently gravity is not that simple that i'm supposed to visualize it like a heavy item on a cloth making a dip and yeah that's
Starting point is 00:33:36 how they suck into each other and i get a little lost oh for sure i'll think stuff like like why like if we're locked with the moon why aren't we like locked with the sun it's so much bigger you're talking about why hasn't it locked all the all the planets so we're just kind of like always facing the same way towards the sun you know so your question is why is the moon tidally locked to the earth i'm no and i'm saying like that happened so why doesn't like the sun which is so much more powerful with gravity why doesn't it tidally lock like mercury let me rephrase it is it that the same side of the moon always faces us why doesn't this say why don't we have to face the sun in the same direction like why doesn't the sun also lock us in in that way because it's acting
Starting point is 00:34:21 on us much more powerfully than the moon i would imagine got it do not have an answer i understand the question i got that far yeah i don't like that that's what i think about when i watch a space video i don't know that it but i don't know that it does act on us more than than than we act on the moon because the distance and and the massiveness like i don't know what that equation looks like right because the moon might be so much bigger than us but the moon is so much closer the i don't know we're like six million miles or six billion miles from the sun or something something crazy but the moon's right there but we get uh we get like eclipses and stuff because like the moon and the sun kind of line up in that way where like the relative size works out to create
Starting point is 00:35:07 stuff like eclipses that is a vast coincidence that is completely coincidental no i i agree like i'm just saying like maybe like that makes me think like okay maybe it's like acting on us about the same amount like that one's so much bigger and so much further away this one's teeny tiny in comparison and closer oh i don't understand how it works i see why doesn't the sun lock like jupiter in and shit or why doesn't jupiter lock all of its moons in or maybe they are locked in i don't know i think that some planets are tidally locked because you hear about that like this on this planet it's daytime all the time on one side and nighttime all the time on the other yeah like some are i don't know how that happens or why that is the way it is but i bet but i bet like a google search should answer it in like 30 seconds they'd
Starting point is 00:35:55 be like ah some planets do this we'll never know we'll never know yeah that's just gonna remain on it might be some science guy doing what would he's saying where he's like actually none of it's real moron and it's like no it's definitely real your microscopes are you talking about when you talk about it not being real are you i think what what you're talking about is first of all the definition of real like like being a little janky but then on top of that maybe the observer effect yeah so the universe is not locally real there's a here's a article you can maybe check the headline um nobel prize winner prove that the universe isn't real locally and beyond that it's like it gets you know what you read this and you're off time and tell me if you walk away
Starting point is 00:36:43 fully getting it. Maybe you will. Maybe you've got more background than I do. We don't. I'll read the first. I do want to read it though. And see where that takes me. One of the more unsettling discoveries in the past half of the century is that
Starting point is 00:36:59 the universe is not locally real. In this context, real means that objects have definite properties, independent of observation. An apple can be red even if no one's looking. Local means that objects can be influenced by their surroundings and that any influence cannot travel faster than light. Investigations at the frontiers of quantum physics have found that these things cannot both be true. Instead, the evidence shows that objects are not influenced solely by their surroundings, and they may also lack definite properties prior to measurement. And then it goes on and they'll probably be like that coin analogy that I tried to make. But locally,
Starting point is 00:37:39 things seem to impact each other faster than the speed of light meaning that observe observation changed it and i get a little lost in the details yeah i'm lost in it as well but i think you're talking about like the observer effect and quantum entanglement the idea that two particles um affect each other no matter their distance from one another so we could have one on jupiter and one right here in my hand and if i observe observe this one, it will always be white. And so the other one must be black on Jupiter. And so by observing this one, I've just sent a message to Jupiter faster than light, instantaneous,
Starting point is 00:38:12 that black. And so if you could make a computer speak in that language, that quantum entangled language and utilize entangled particles, we could instantly transcribe that in some sort of a language, like a Morse code of blacks and whites or ones and zeros. Faster than light. It's not moving. It's the fact that the two particles are connected by some sort of magic that we don't understand.
Starting point is 00:38:35 And when we observe one of them, it will always be this one thing. And so that one has to be the other thing. Yeah, but Kyle's really describing it well. We can do it right here in the laboratory, like with this thing in our, with the two things right here that are completely away from one another, you know, brick wall, lead wall,
Starting point is 00:38:53 do whatever you want. And it'll happen just like that. And no matter how much we increase the distance, it'll keep happening. It's called the observer effect. What kind of particles are they? And it always blows my mind a little bit, kind of like trying to,
Starting point is 00:39:04 for me, it's like trying to remember how that goddamn movie Primer, how the time travel works. If I watch two hours of videos, I'll be like, I can't wait to explain this tomorrow. But right now, I've explained all I know. Yeah, and you did it really well. That's good. Nothing more. Yeah, and that observer effect that we've done it on earth hundreds of kilometers apart and i observed that it works and we don't know why and then their explanation to mere mortals is that locally the universe isn't real which is hard for me to swallow because it feels so real
Starting point is 00:39:38 like i have my own definition of real that i've been using for a long time that doesn't like jive with theirs and that i've just been really into it like on my youtube rabbit hole and like i keep saying to me i don't get it interesting i think what some people say is that it is that maybe it has something to do with the idea that this is all a simulation and so it doesn't matter look first of all jupiter's not where jupiter is okay there is no jupiter okay like you're in a simulation and there's a simulation of a jupiter and they think it's over there. The idea of time and the speed of light,
Starting point is 00:40:08 none of that matters because it's all make-believe in somebody else's simulation. If it is a simulation, it's a really good one. Actually, we wouldn't even know. Don't you see shit all the time that doesn't make any fucking sense? Yeah, I get deja vu.
Starting point is 00:40:24 Simulation's fucked up. Valentina Shevchenko didn't win any fucking sense. Yeah, I get days of simulations fucked up. Valentina Shevchenko didn't win the fight the other night, apparently. Definitely not a real world. Not in this universe. I split draw. They split draw. Look, they gave
Starting point is 00:40:38 to make it that, that fucking cocksucker judge that they're always upset with made it a 10-8 in round five and i didn't know who had won the round it here's what happened valentina was dominating in like the first minute and she slipped or something and the positions got quickly reversed and the chick was on her back and it it was like she kind of ground her down for the whole round she's just on her back being kind of ineffective it was not a 10-8. 10-8s are like a beatdown
Starting point is 00:41:08 that you barely survive. Maybe they should have stopped it. Yeah. That's what a 10-8 often is. Exactly. They made it this split draw thing. I think it was a split draw. It's like Mexican Independence Day.
Starting point is 00:41:24 Was it a majority draw by chance? Is that... I don't remember exactly how it was a split draw and um it's like mexican independence day was it a majority draw by chance is that i don't remember exactly how okay okay but but it was a draw nonetheless the mexican fighter gets to keep her belt on mexican independence day with the mexican crowd shevchenko's like this is horse shit first of all let's do the the three pete and kyrgyzstan on kyrgyzstani Independence Day. It's coming up soon. Like, that only seems fair to me. That's the smart thing to do, right?
Starting point is 00:41:51 Right? I forget who the champ was. There was a champ that defended their belt. It might have been Usman. And it was like a draw, a draw, and then they called it for Usman. And they're like, if you're a normal person, you're like, if two judges think it's a tie and the other judge thinks you won, then you won, right?
Starting point is 00:42:10 It's as simple as that. But that's not how it really works. How it really works is if two call it a draw and one thinks you won, it's a draw. It's a majority draw. It doesn't matter that if you add up all the scores, one guy won. No, no, no.
Starting point is 00:42:24 The majority of people agreed that it was a draw a tie therefore it's a tie it didn't matter a ton because the champ was the one who got the tiebreaker which doesn't break ties yeah they keep the belt and and because it was a draw the champ stays champ which is as good as a win kind of but it wasn't a win like they you know so they had to they're like hey you still champ, but you didn't win. You draw. You tied. That was upsetting. Didn't like that. Didn't like that a bit.
Starting point is 00:42:51 That was frustrating. I really like that chick. I like when she wins. Zach put the score in there. One had it 48-47 for the champ. One had it 48-47 for the challenger, and the other one had it as a draw. I guess that's a draw- and the champs are built okay yeah the yeah the problem is how they came up with
Starting point is 00:43:11 the scores like just the 10-8 round is the egregious part if you want to score some of those rounds not valentina's i can't argue against that like okay maybe you saw something i didn't but you didn't see a 10-8 uh in in in the in the fifth round it's just is that the biggest difference there are there ever like yeah so so it's the scoring's a little fucked we can either tie the round we both get tens right or it's 10-9 or which is like i beat you or 10-8 10-8 is saying you barely made it dude you got slaughtered for five minutes straight you were on your back and he was on top you're bleeding you look hurt do you get the doctor in here that's a 10-8 if the doctors come in after a 10-8 round the sevens i would love to see that i don't think i've ever
Starting point is 00:43:57 seen one okay you'd have to like truly be like barely gripping to life after a round right yeah yeah what was the question he said do they ever do 10-7 yeah oh i don't think that's a possibility they've had multiple 10-8s there's been they should go to like a two a two of zero one two system then i don't know what they should do there's been a lot of discussion about that they use the boxing uh uh setup and sometimes depending on where they're fighting they've got boxing judges in there that don't know what the fuck they're looking at so they don't know what the techniques are even called i mean not that i know what all of them are called like some of that stuff's funky but they know less about mixed martial
Starting point is 00:44:36 arts than the three of us here and and maybe a ton about boxing and then they'll judge that sounds like a joke but it's not. Sometimes judges literally know less than us. Interested fans. 10-7 is a thing. I looked it up. It's when one fighter completely overwhelms the other
Starting point is 00:44:56 and a stoppage is warranted. 10-7 means they should have ended the fight but didn't. There's been plenty of those too. Corners need to be better about that. 10-7 means the ref's going to get they should have ended the fight, but didn't. Um, there's been plenty of those too, you know, corners. They didn't do better about that. So like a 10, seven means the refs going to get fired for not doing his job.
Starting point is 00:45:11 Yeah. That's actually what I think they should have been refs who got fired for not ending fights. If I was King, then maybe the 10 pound must is 10 point must system has enough legacy that we don't change it, but add decimals but add decimals. Add decimals.
Starting point is 00:45:26 Suddenly, if Taylor walls me good, not 10-8, but we'll give him a 9. And then in the next round, I got the better of him, but not as much as he did me. Then you get a 9.5 as the loser. So it's 10 to 9.5. And now I only got like half a round on you. They should do something. I mean, it's still in its infancy of a sport enough that they could 10 to 9.5. And now, you know, I only got like half a round on you. Yeah, they should do something. I mean, like it's still in its infancy of a sport enough that they could totally revamp some stuff. Baseball
Starting point is 00:45:50 just made changes. UFC good. Oh, I want to talk about the baseball changes real quick. Like the results rather, you know, they did all of that crazy shit to baseball. The result was shorter games with more runs. That's big. It's shorter games with more runs. Like they it's perfect what they did now a
Starting point is 00:46:07 ton of the players are like okay but the postseason's coming october's coming so maybe give us more than two seconds to get ready at the and maybe we make eye contact and we all nod then he throws because they know more that speed pitching stuff is frustrating a lot of people i think they want more time for the postseason not the viewers i would imagine the viewers aren't frustrated by it yeah postseason baseball it's like one in the morning and you know you've got i mean most people have work the next day and then there's another one the next night you know they're doing a whole fucking series it can it can be i'm 100% sure every other sport it has a clock where the players are like hey you know can you throw some extra time on there you forced me to hurry.
Starting point is 00:46:47 That's what the clock was there for all along. Hurry the fuck up. You're a professional. And then there's like soccer system, which is just confusing to me where I'll be watching soccer with a friend and I'll be like, oh, it's almost to 90. And then he'll be like, no, but it's plus eight, which means that they added about eight minutes. And I'm like, really? So like no one knows exactly when the we're going to, they added about eight minutes. And I'm like,
Starting point is 00:47:07 really? So like, no one knows exactly when the game's going to end. And he's like, no, like they'll stop it next time. Something unimportant happens. If you're in a position to score,
Starting point is 00:47:17 we'll let you carry that out. If, if you're not, then it's time to end the game. I was, so, so I don't know exactly. It's,
Starting point is 00:47:24 it was like the, maybe the 1999 Caribbean cup, something like that look you could you could search caribbean cup scored on goal to win and you'd find the story because i'm going to butcher soccer rules but basically a team was two points in the tournament down they needed 2.2 like wins wins to get them the win in the overall tournament. They're winning their current game, but a win will only get them one point. But an OT win gets them two.
Starting point is 00:47:54 They score their own goal. They score on themselves at the end to send it to OT. Then beat the other team in OT to get the two points and the whole Caribbean Cup. I love that. That doesn't make any sense. Why would you get more
Starting point is 00:48:10 points for not defeating your opponent faster? I'm pretty sure I like to describe that correctly. If it's a little janky, the facts still remain. Scoring on themselves to go to OT got them the whole thing. I don't see the kick out of that.
Starting point is 00:48:26 I don't know. NFL football, right? I think I know the rules. And then it turns out like a third of the rules I've never seen before. And you see guys getting safeties on themselves on purpose in an effort to end the game. Or they intentionally make, I guess if the ball is by the sideline and they stand out of bounds to touch the ball while they do it that's better than just downing it
Starting point is 00:48:51 there sometimes but there's a youtube thing like you know like well yeah the clock stops they run out of bounds well the clock stops whereas this is on a kickoff and i think it's a little more than that um but uh but yeah and it's like you know nfl there's a lot of clock management 200 iq plays and yeah they speaking of football plays taylor's mizzou what are y'all the bulldogs what are y'all tigers the tigers that's right the tigers um they said not just a mizzou record when he told me like yeah we won our last game i don't know why we're not higher in the polls and so i started digging because i was curious because they're three and oh and they beat a ranked opponent last week or the week before whenever it was and I started looking up
Starting point is 00:49:33 he's like yeah our fat ass kickers the man he he kicked a 61 yarder for the win and I was like whoa a 61 yarder that's got to be a record. And I looked it up. Not only is it a Mizzou Tigers record, it's an SEC record. Yeah. 61 yards is insanity. Like 51 is insanity. It's a holy shit. 51.
Starting point is 00:49:58 Dude, he kicked like a 55 last year. The dude's 511 to 46. They call them the thicker kicker. And he's slaying at Mizzou, I would imagine right now. 246. They call him the thicker kicker. He's slaying at Mizzou I would imagine right now. We're going to ride the thicker kicker as long as we can. He's our best player to my knowledge. I wonder what his NFL career looks like.
Starting point is 00:50:18 If we've got to deal with the thicker kicker putting three extra on the board every now and then. Hell yeah. Holy shit. He's testing the tensile strength of that jersey. Look at that. My god. He is. That's a guy who is like he didn't even wait to
Starting point is 00:50:36 beat the Georgia championship team. He's eating wings like game three mid-game on the sidelines. That's just what he does to fuel up so yeah not he's that's the most kickers are not that fat but i it's clearly helping him get a big fat pendulous foot swinging down i'm okay with it yeah look i don't know just kicker in the sec squatting and stuff.
Starting point is 00:51:06 Say that again. I didn't hear that. I would imagine he's like because most kickers are small guys. Like he's a strong guy that's got to help like make you kick further. Well, I wonder, is this going to hurt his scouting? No, he's 100% going to make it to the NFL off the fact that like last year he kicked like multiple 50 yard plus this year. He just kicked a 61 like I was. He will get
Starting point is 00:51:30 drafted because I get like so he will get drafted. He is apparently our best player like and he is always hit like he doesn't miss often because he's your best player. Does he get the most pussy? I'm really curious about that like there has to be some gold digger who's like this is an NFL contract. I'm fucking you know,. There has to be some gold digger who's like, this is an NFL contract I'm fucking.
Starting point is 00:51:46 I want this. This wide receiver might be way more fit and better in bed, but there's no NFL contract in this guy's future. The thicker kicker, that's my meal ticket. I feel like the thicker kicker is probably the only member of Mizzou who could play for Georgia and do well. I guess so. I was reading some thread online that people were kind of like, how on earth
Starting point is 00:52:10 does Mizzou have this guy? And I guess other people didn't want to roll with him because he was fat. And they're like, this isn't how they're supposed to look. This isn't what kickers look like, and apparently it is. They get their big fat asses out there and swing their leg.
Starting point is 00:52:26 If there's one guy who's you know the same consistency you know just as good or close but he's also fit and fast and if he has to he could stop a run back or something like he's the guy who could run and like lay hands somebody on an emergency or maybe he plays like two positions like i don't know if your guy's just for field goals like does he punt and and do like like the kickoff kickoff you know to start games because yeah if you've got one guy who does all those things i'm sure that's a plus too certainly in the nfl you would imagine i don't know yeah pat mcafee of course everyone knows him yeah he was lied. I'm going to get this a little close, but I guess he was good at field goals and not kickoffs or vice versa. He was only good at one of them.
Starting point is 00:53:14 And when he got drafted and as he's trying out, they asked him if he could do both, and he lied and said yes. And then when games started, he's like, actually. And they're like, well, figure it out. We hired you for this job. He had to. He's like, I'm really good at half of my job. He had to literally come clean.
Starting point is 00:53:34 And you got to respect him for that. Because somebody like that other guy I was talking about that wouldn't watch the DVD, he would have just lied and just been bad. But he's like, Coach, I got to be honest. I've never kicked off before. Not since high school. High school. I kicked off.
Starting point is 00:53:48 He's like, wait. But you know how? In theory. I am a kicker. We should really bring somebody in, though. If I'm going to be doing this against, you know, like fucking Dallas. Yeah, next week. Because they're professionals, too.
Starting point is 00:54:03 You know? I don't think that they're guys, like, learning how to do it right now i mean i don't want to kick off to a team of world beaters and that's what this whole league's made of all right i remember that debate from like years ago where people were like this was probably eight years ago when i heard people being like, Alabama could definitely take on the Jacksonville Jaguars. And it was like, no, they would. It would be a brutal maiming. Every member of Alabama would be grievously injured by the end of the half. Like it wouldn't like you're insane.
Starting point is 00:54:40 If it's like, man, look at this really good Alabama O-lineman. He's 360 pounds. That's almost 40 pounds lighter than the smallest D-lineman who's been doing this for five years and is roided up. Like, no, you're going to get brutalized by that. It's cool, the difference in skill. And that also makes college more interesting to me. Like, I'm not a football fan.
Starting point is 00:55:01 I don't really watch it. But I'd rather watch the shorter career of the college kids because there's going to be upsets there's going to be like pressure getting to them and mistakes and shit like that it's it's more riveting than than the pros i pull for nc state right which historically is on the same level as mizzou it sounds like we're not as good this year but you know if you go over the 10 years you probably have similar teams you ranked not this year i don't think but we're right are they we're receiving votes we lost a game uh notre dame beat us anyway that was our chance to win i think a ranking but uh uh what like so what happens is we'll go through and be like all right we're playing virginia yeah we can beat them fuck them
Starting point is 00:55:45 Who gives a fuck about Virginia And then it comes along and it's like yeah UNC Duke we're gonna kill them And then we go up against like Clemson And it's like man I hope no one gets hurt Does this seem fair to you This doesn't seem fair to me That's college man
Starting point is 00:56:00 Yeah that's how Mizzou feels It's like we're gonna buttfuck Vanderbilt And then hopefully we keep it tight with georgia and they're like maybe we'll even win and it's like well don't be dumb we're not gonna win but like what if this game at the every like snap we all turtle up right like on the ground that way we'll be safe well it still counts as one loss. Like little giants. If I were going to play against, I don't know, Georgia,
Starting point is 00:56:31 let's have some fun out there. Maybe you could even talk to the other coach for it and look, there's nothing with trick plays tonight, Donnie. There's no need for you to hurt us. Could you send your second string in? That is your second string! They're so scary at Georgiaorgia it's really fun what our um y'all don't follow georgia's off season but it was a scary off season because i'm exaggerating but like half a dozen of our good players got speeding tickets or drunk driving or hit and run
Starting point is 00:57:01 arrests and here's why they have and i don't follow NCAA stuff as much as I should, but the NIL money or whatever that shit is, where they're now getting a piece of the pie when they're still in school, and instead of being broke college kids focusing on their game so they can eventually make money, they're getting like quarter-million-dollar checks a month or something like that. And it's like, yeah, give me a track hog.
Starting point is 00:57:27 Yeah, give me that Ferrari. Give me this. Give me that. And so all of these 18, 19 year olds are driving five, six, seven, 800 horsepower vehicles through Athens, Georgia. I know maybe you haven't been to Athens. Not a lot of big. It's not a place to drive fast. it's not a good place to drive fast it's just it they keep getting in trouble and it was a real scary off season i don't think we lost lost anybody but it's one of those things we're like y'all can't do this again like everybody's on
Starting point is 00:57:59 their second or third last chance the cops are to chill. The cops are just like, yeah, they were drag racing with guns, but they're really good. What are we going to lose to Alabama? It's finally our turn. Have you seen the jump? Alabama is lost. They're ranked 13 now.
Starting point is 00:58:19 They're way down. They can't even sniff Georgia anymore. They could lose to anyone, but they could beat anyone. Yeah, so Alabama's out of contention. The way it works, they're just out. They could win out and I don't think that they could get back into the national title picture after losing to
Starting point is 00:58:35 Texas like that, which is beautiful to me. It's delicious. It means if we don't win, it'll be upsetting. You might not remember, but when we won the title last year, the coach came out back in front of the fans and he went, and they all cheered. He held up the number one, and then he held up two,
Starting point is 00:58:54 and they all cheered louder, and then he turned back around and he went three, and they went crazy. So the expectations, as stupid as it is, is to win three national titles in a row this year. And anything less is a letdown. But as long as Alabama doesn't win one, I won't be legitimately upset. As long as we get a good bowl game, maybe we're fourth at the end of the year. We might lose some tough game to somebody.
Starting point is 00:59:19 I don't know. It could happen. We don't have to win three in a row. But as long as Alabama loses. But if Alabama won one and we lost it to them, that would be too much. Are they on your schedule? No. They have to win out.
Starting point is 00:59:34 They have to do that 100% just to get the opportunity to play us. Yeah. Because they're from the West. We're from the East. It's not like we're on some special thing. But Georgia's schedule this year is very unusual. Alabama from the east it's not like we're on some special thing but georgia's schedule this year is alabama from the west west western west west they weren't on the four states i stood in okay i mean georgia only really has one really tough game and that's mizzou georgia the only team game the only team that's kept it close with Georgia in two years is University of Missouri. I imagine that there will be a speech before the game
Starting point is 01:00:11 where it's like, hey, remember what happened last year where it looked kind of rough at halftime? Let's not do that again. Let's get our shit together and show these guys they're not even a second-rate team. I feel like that will be said at some point. They wouldn't say that publicly. You just hit the speech. I feel like that will be said at some point. They wouldn't say that publicly. We are absolutely a middling SEC team.
Starting point is 01:00:32 Don't put us in the conversation with fucking Vanderbilt and South Carolina. You're about to play Vanderbilt in like a week or two. And now we're going to lose. And after Vandy, then you got to play lsu october 7th i think that's a rough game we do well against lsu if it isn't out if it's in the swamp as they say i'm gonna have to put some money on lsu i'll gamble with you for that game okay that'll be fun we'll do that those sec games and by the way i just checked the all-time SEC win rate of Georgia versus Mizzou is only 90%. So we've got one win.
Starting point is 01:01:11 They started keeping score before slavery was abolished. No, 2012 is when that goes back to. The last 10 times we have been thoroughly routed. That's like the Mizzou football team dream is just keeping it tight with the Alabamas and the Georgians. I guess we don't really play Alabama because they're not on our side. Georgia's the annoying as shit team we have to deal with every year. And we never win except for once.
Starting point is 01:01:42 We have way better jerseys than you guys, so that's good. I strongly disagree. Our away jerseys, the black ones, they do blackout night when they do that. Those are pretty fucking cool. I like the Mizzou blackout ones. Black and gold are neat colors. I really don't like Alabama's jerseys. I always, for years, have saw them and been like,
Starting point is 01:02:02 this is like Forrest Gump level jersey like it's just not good like there's such a storied franchise I like them a little vintage I like Penn State too I don't know what theirs look like if I'm recalling I think that Notre Dame has some cool ones
Starting point is 01:02:19 I've always thought they have they have that helmet like the saint thing on them or something they paint them gold every game and they get all scratched up. USC, Southern California, not South Carolina, they have a really cool jersey with the Trojan thing on the helmet.
Starting point is 01:02:35 I like those. Georgia could put peaches on there. Ones that look like butts. Or peanuts. Those are the two foods of Georgia. Peanuts and peaches, right? And chicken. Well, everybody loves chicken.
Starting point is 01:02:52 Can't see that. It'd be fun to put chickens on there. No one has chickens on their helmets. What about the Gamecocks? Okay. Not a lot of people have chickens on their helmets. I didn't know there'd be chicken helmets. Is that South Carolina Gamecocks? Yeah, South Carolina Gamecocks.
Starting point is 01:03:13 Dude, their gear was super popular in my high school. Everyone loved cock stuff. I mean, it's a funny name. Yeah, the Go- Cocks hat was like, I don't know if college hats are still in style, but back in the 90s they were, and Go Cocks was a big one. Who beats Georgia the most? You could share.
Starting point is 01:03:36 Other than Alabama. I looked up, I was trying to find the biggest upsets in UGA history, and my God, there's no one on the list but Alabama. It's just Bama over and over and over. Florida was a real problem when I was like 16, 17, 18, 19. Those years. Actually like 15, 16, 17, 18, 19. Those were the Tim Tebow years.
Starting point is 01:04:07 That was a rough time. That was a rough time for us. But now it's your day in the sun. Alabama's faded. Florida's a distant memory. I guess Florida still gives you trouble, right? Which of these is worse? Really think about it.
Starting point is 01:04:19 If your team is good, like pretty fucking good, the problem is your rival is great and so you don't even get your shot you should be in the championship game like rolling the dice with the big dog from the other conference but because your rival at home like right next door is great you don't even get your shot and that's what it was like for multiple years when it was matthew stafford at georgia and tim tebow down in florida because we'd go play them and they'd shit on us and we'd go from ranked you know top 10 to ranked top 15 top 20 and then the whole year we climb our way back and then the year we get shit on by BCS scoring or something every year that happened every year that happened it was upsetting that I'm glad
Starting point is 01:05:02 that guy's playing minor league baseball or fucking hitting on Christian girls at some summer camp he runs or some shit. Oh, I thought he was like a football commentator now. He's had a few jobs. I mean, you know, I'm just glad he's not throwing a goddamn football. Well, he wasn't good enough for the NFL. His style didn't translate to the NFL, right?
Starting point is 01:05:21 Exactly. And Matthew Stafford did. He went and played for the Lions. I don't know where he's playing now. Is your professional football team good? Are the NFL, right? Exactly. And Matthew Stafford did. He went and played for the Lions. I don't know where he's playing now. Is your professional football team good? Are the Falcons good? Actually, we fucked Green Bay up this week, and it came out of nowhere.
Starting point is 01:05:34 Green Bay fans got, I'm sure the people in Green Bay were juiced up when they saw Aaron Rodgers fucking go down in Philly. Because all the tweets coming out of Green Bay with this. Aaron Rodgers 2023 highlight. And it's just him running out of the tunnel with the American flag. And then they go, that's it.
Starting point is 01:05:54 Because fuck you, Aaron Rodgers. Fuck you. And then they had to stomach a beating from the Falcons, which had to temper that a little bit. It wasn't a beating. It was an eking out. But it wasn't supposed to happen. So yeah, Falcons are 2-0. Nice. Not going anywhere.
Starting point is 01:06:10 Not going anywhere with that. The Chiefs have already lost one this year, so they've got to round it back up. Yeah. No, I don't count on the Falcons to do anything aside from humiliate and embarrass the city of Atlanta. Well, the Braves will play out of it. The Cardinals, I checked, they're barely will play out of it. The Cardinals, I checked,
Starting point is 01:06:25 they're barely going to miss the playoffs. That's not accurate. They are 17 games out. No, it could be any number of games. And so I'm going all in. I'm going to buy a Braves hat, my second favorite team. Going to hope for,
Starting point is 01:06:43 because I want a championship, because the Blues are going to be dog shit again. This is really, it's going to make the playoffs. It looks like. Yeah. Yeah. Oh,
Starting point is 01:06:51 well we'll see. They're playing Atlanta in 24 minutes. They've got a two or three game set with Atlanta. And then Atlanta has got like sick, like a three game with the walk with Washington. And then somebody else, then a two or three with the Cubs and then two or three more with Washington again. We should make a deal.
Starting point is 01:07:07 We'll give you some home runs if you give us the W. I don't think you have any choice in the matter. I think we'll take our home runs and the W as well. Yes. And you'll have nothing. I feel like Wings of Redemption. Negotiating.
Starting point is 01:07:21 No, no, no. Zero. Let's pre-determine. The St. Louis Blues actually do a great job with their on-screen mid-game poking fun and shit. They do good lookalikes and everything. And they used to play that Willy Won wonka clip like when the other team would like fuck up a like a penalty shot or something so they'd like go in and then the blues goalie saves it and then they play that just that part it's like you lose good day sir you get nothing nothing and i was like that's that's actually i look we just played the Braves, and we stomped you 7-1. Oh, the shame. The shame of losing.
Starting point is 01:08:07 Well, Philly's a good team, you said. I think we played tonight. That was the... Good taste. Wait, I think that was tonight. That was today, that game I'm talking about. No, no, no. We do play tonight.
Starting point is 01:08:18 You're right. The story was written today, and it confused me. So it must have been real reason. Is that a story from the future? I'm pretty sure we play in 23 minutes. We'll see what happens. They're calling it predictive journalism and it's ruining people's abilities to follow sports.
Starting point is 01:08:32 The minority report of ESPN. I'm sure they've given us quite a few losses. It's always been decent. I can't. Oh, here it is. This score is from yesterday. 7-1. Tonight we play again. I don't. Oh, here it is. This score is from yesterday, 7-1. So tonight we play again. And I don't know.
Starting point is 01:08:49 I hope we win again. We'll see. I just hope we set that record. You should have taken the deal. You only got one home run. Oh, my God. Is it too late to get a hold of him? I can't even pick which member of the Braves I hope hits the winning dinger.
Starting point is 01:09:03 I can't even pick. I love so many of them. There's Fred McGriff. There's Fred McGriff. They call him Johnny Baseball. There's Marky Grissom. Marky Grissom. You don't have to tell me, brother.
Starting point is 01:09:19 There's the Jones boys, Andrew and Chipper. You've got Javi Lopez behind the plate. And who is it? Pedro Martinez. By the way, this is the team from 1996. Yeah, I was going to say.
Starting point is 01:09:34 Like down the line. What's that new? There's the wheelchair. There's wheels. They traded Javi Lopez to the Orioles in like 2000. I was naming people from backyard baseball i don't know anyway um we should probably wrap up i gotta yes continue my day my dinner's probably getting cold pkn 474
