QB1, Baker Mayfield, the number one pick in the NFL Draft 2018, your starter for the Cleveland Browns, awesome interview.

We went to Cleveland, it was a face-to-face interview. He came away, it was like two alphas, three alphas just in a Mexican standoff. Yeah, careful. What? It was three. Three. I meant like two in terms of we as a collective alpha, and then him on the other side. Two alpha parties.

Yeah, two alpha parties having a party, and I think he came away, really was actually darty. Yeah, he had a great time, and we had a lot of fun with him, and we also have a very big announcement with that, as well as Hot Seat Cool Throne, guys on chicks, and don't get your hopes up, get your hopes up, the Warriors are imploding before we get to all of that.

Today is Wednesday, November 14th and P.F.T.

I'm feeling dangerous. I woke up feeling very dangerous today. I hope everybody else out there did because this is a very, man, we're taking the highway to the danger zone. Oh yeah, so we couldn't say anything. We interviewed Baker last week when we were in Cleveland. We also have an awesome collaboration with Baker that you've got to listen to to check it out.

It all proceeds go to the Special Olympics in Ohio. Great interview, great time and now we can finally drop it. So we don't do well with sitting on interviews. No we don't. I was very excited about talking about it. And like this weekend, I was watching the Browns game with a little bit more on the line. Little invest.

I was like, well, I also bet on the Browns. Well, me too. And I hope he plays well, hope he plays well and it turns out he lit it up and now we got him on the show. Yeah, and we got him on the show. He's our best friend. Okay, so from one QB1 to another QB1, Eli Manning 2019, let's get it going. I mean, listen, the way that he played last night, this was, this is the Eli that we always

know is inside of him, right? Okay, so we're joking, but I guarantee you there are Giants fans and people in the Giants organization who watch Monday Night Football and said, oh, that's Eli. Yeah, that's Eli. And that's actually the perfect like encapsulation of his entire career. The guy, yeah, the guy who's a Hall of Famer, he's going to be in the Hall of Fame, which we can embrace debate. I actually, I looked through his numbers.

I did some deep diving. It's interesting to be like, he's a Hall of Famer for sure. And then look at his career and be like half the seasons, you had to even ask if he was good. Yeah. Well, there were also a lot of seasons where he had that streak going and he would have like catastrophic shoulder injuries where his labrum would just fall off. Yes.

And then he would refuse to sit out a game because listen, he's a manning. He's tough. Tough. This is what they do in that family. This is how he was raised. He's got a good set of parents ahead of him. He knows how to play the game the right way. And even though his rotator cuff is basically made of the field in Mexico City, he's going

to stay out there and you're not fucking taking his starting job from him. Listen, say what you want about Eli, but he is still entertaining. Even in his good plays, he looks like he wants to sack himself. He has like almost a clock going off on his head. You know how most quarterbacks have that clock like, all right, after three seconds, I got to leave the pocket. Eli has the after three seconds, I got to just sack myself. You got to take a seat.

Yeah. You just got to lay down because you know the hits coming. I have that same thought and feeling when I'm just standing up just in a bar usually. It's like, okay, I need to sit down. Anywhere. The thing about Eli is every good play that he makes, it looks like an accident. It still looks like an accident. He is the one foil to me and Big Cat's idea that if you want to draft, if you want to

hire a head coach or you want to draft a quarterback to be your leader, just have us look at him. And we'll tell you if that guy is going to be a football guy or not. And with Eli, we would be wrong about him. He's the one wrong pick that we've made in our history. Although you could say if you had us look at him and then you said, hey, just think about this before you look at this guy, before they open door number three, is there a chance a guy can look so dumb that he just blacks out and goes on crazy playoff runs every now and then?

And then if you put that thought in my head, it'd be like, that's the guy. He looks dumb enough to work. So just forget that he's average and then just be insane for two Super Bowl runs. It's a good decoy for the defense to look at a guy that looks that dumb because maybe you train a little bit, a little softer during the week. You don't rush as fast on the past, past rush because you're like, this guy's going to sack himself anyways. I don't need to get there.

I need three seconds. So yeah, I guess I could see him being just like so dumb looking that he is that's actually an asset. Yeah. Shout out Booger though. Booger. So the Monday night crew that's getting all the talk, Booger McFarland actually proposed the idea that Eli Manning wasn't a Hall of Famer.

I think that was a direct reaction to two weeks ago in Atlanta when they kept on saying Eli Manning couldn't, didn't have an offensive line. And even though there were circling guys who were wide open and all that stuff. So credit to Booger for actually throwing that out there and credit for Jason Witton for showing up again. Yeah. Jason was there. Be nice to Jason.

His hair looked great. I don't know what everybody's talking about. His hair, it was perfect hair. Ty looked great. Absolutely. His posture was good. He was carrying like a stack of rolled up newspapers for some reason at one point. That was cool too.

My favorite part continues to be the Booger Mobile seat belt that he has to sit on. Now be careful because when you get too deep into the weeds, talking about Eli, if you're Booger, Archie's going to cut the brakes on the Booger Mobile. He is not. Oh, there was a red dot on Booger's head, forehead when he was talking about Eli Manning not being a Hall of Famer. Jason Witton, I, we're going to have to eventually feel bad for him because what's going to happen is they're going to not renew him after this year.

And then he's going to do a Tell All podcast or Tony Romo will sit down with him or someone from the Dallas media, maybe even Jerry Jones and he'll be like, yeah, the internet was just so mean to me. Well, you know what? I don't think that anybody's going to make it through the first like two sentences of his podcast anyway. No, probably not. True.

You got to get it. Jason, Jason. Yeah. A little, well, I don't know about if that's really his strong superior. No, do it in the written word and then you just, and then someone needs to just take a picture of one paragraph and tweet it and then we'll consume it. Okay. I read paragraphs from people's screen crap.

I guess. I'll read a screen grab. Yeah. Maybe if you highlight it for me, just highlight the words that I give me three words. Four words. The internet was mean to me. I'm not that bad. Yeah.

That's what his, that's what my wife says. My wife says. All right. And then we also have our field update. Can I just wait? Can I just say about Monday Night Football, the 49ers are going to be one of those teams that I know they're not good, but I will watch every single prime time game that they're on.

It's Kyle Shanahan. They're fun to watch. Kyle Shanahan's offense, whoever is running it, it doesn't really matter. He will keep them in the game. And plus Cassius Marsh. Yes. Got to watch any game that guy's in. Yes.

Absolutely. People forget he had like $50,000 worth of Magic the Gathering cards stolen from him. Is that true? Yeah. Shit. When he was in Seattle. Hank would know all of that. Hank's on the hot seat.

The Black Lotus card probably. That was one of them, right? Yeah. Were people mad at you about that? Very mad. I knew, I knew what I was doing to her. I was just trying to pull one up on you guys. Oh, okay.

You're trolling. All right. So the other thing we had to talk about in the NFL, we're going to get to Hugh Jackson and Nathan Peterman in segments, but the Mexico City field update. So we had a field controversy. Field gate still going on. Yeah. Oh, it is.

No, they moved the game. They moved the game. So credits, breaking moves. They moved the game. Credits the NFL for having the foresight to not play a game where everyone's going to tear their tail. Yeah. Because that was going to be an absolute shit show.

And by foresight, they really didn't. They just, pictures came out of the field and everyone was like, this is insane. And then finally the NFL was like, oh shit, like the, the, the Mexico City field is trending on Twitter. Maybe we should do something. Yeah. The visual was bad. The players said they were going to not play.

Oh, really? We had to threaten to walk out? Yeah. Choose players so they wouldn't play. Now they need to start leaning on, on Dan Snyder to take care of the field in Raul John. That's the next step. And then maybe the soldier field being the third one.

Yes. Yeah. The field looked awful. I think some of those pictures might have been photoshopped because I refuse to believe that there's a plot of grass that looks, that can possibly, it looked like, um, less, it looks like Les Miles was just walking around grazing that field for the last two months. Those soccer, a lot of, a lot of soccer guys just sliding around on it.

And Shakira concert. Oh. It's always a concert. Hips lie after all. Oh. No, no, they didn't lie because they did not lie. They shook hard enough to tear up the grass. So here is an interesting little betting wrinkle that we have to now think about.

The LA Rams went to Colorado Springs to practice in altitude all week. Yeah. They found out about the field change because Mexico city is like two miles high, whatever it is. It's, I heard it was extreme altitude. It was, I think it's like 33% higher than Denver. That's crazy. So they went and they're, they're practicing in Colorado Springs.

They just, they got there last night. They found out today they're staying all week. So will they have super strength by going back down to sea level? Okay. So, uh, yes. I was going to say, if there's any other answer than yes, you're wrong. You had me at super strength. Andy Reed doesn't fit in.

He doesn't do anything in thin air. No. Any air that's around Andy is not going to be thin. Correct. Uh, and then like on a, on a serious tip, he's like a helicopter just sucking up all the air. So the rest of it's, it's the rest of the air around him is really thin. I don't know.

But Andy's right through it. Andy Reed is a hundred percent a nose whistler. So I don't think he's pulling in oxygen at a hundred percent of his usage. Yes. If you look at what's going on in California, obviously there are fire, fires that are blazing, you know, up in Northern California and Southern California that sucks. And I've read a bunch of stories about how the Rams are just like really inconvenienced by it.

And like, you know, they're going to lose some of their houses. It sucks. I mean, I would say the other people who are inconvenienced, it's worse for, yeah, it's bad for them, but we're talking about the game. It's just a bad situation overall. But in reality, the oxygen in LA is not going to be at a hundred percent either because there's going to be smoke in the air. So this is like them training in Colorado.

Super strength. Listen, some things are bigger than sports. Super strength. We know that. But in this case, I say that on the playing field, it's probably going to help them. Super strength. Super strength. It absolutely is going to happen.

Super strength. Do you think I actually had to stay woke on the Mexico City field? Why? What? We got the El Chapo trial about to start here in Brooklyn, I think. Is it really here? Yeah. Wow.

They're going to shut down the Brooklyn Bridge. And it's going to, it's a whole big deal. The way that you said that made me think that you're one of the secret potential jurors. Oh wow. It's curious. You talked about jury duty recently. You talked about jury duty recently. I did.

I did. Could you imagine the context? Big cat. If I was on El, I would. That's the scariest job in the world. It would be great for the show. They should actually put Mike Rowe on the jury. Mike Rowe should, yeah.

They should be like, yeah, this is the dirtiest job in the world. Yeah. It's trying not to get killed by El Chapo. It's that and being Jason Campbell's head coach. Yeah. Those are the two most dangerous jobs in the history of the world. My theory is the field looks so shitty in Mexico City. That's where the tunnel is being dug because they're really big on tunneling into jails

to break El Chapo out. I think that there might be a tunnel that goes all the way to Brooklyn. From Mexico City to Brooklyn. And that's the exit. Yeah. Okay. I mean, until proven otherwise, I'll agree with you. Okay.

Thank you. We have to talk before we get to hot seat, cool throne. The greatest story in all of sports that's going on right now, the Golden State Warriors are imploding. And now this is probably an overreaction. Everything you're about to listen to is an overreaction, but this is what, when a team wins as much as the Warriors, we have to overreact. And we have to pretend the sky is falling because this would be the greatest thing ever

if this team implodes and doesn't win a title and they all just like go their separate way. Yeah. So you want to walk us through what happened. It was, it was Dreymon and KD at the end of last night's game. Okay. So I had the under. I did. It sucked.

So anyway, Dreymon, the Warriors have a furious comeback against Clippers. And Steph Curry's out. So Dreymon Green with Steph Curry being out, I think Dreymon Green probably thought, well, if Steph's out, I got to get 40. And so he gets the final rebound with eight seconds left in a tie game. And Kevin Durant is standing right next to him being like, pass me the ball. It would have been a classic. Kevin Durant dribbles down, shoots a three, or even goes to the, to the basket and scores

because he does it a million times. He's deadly from that. Dreymon instead says, no, I'm not passing it to Clay Thompson or Kevin Durant. I'm going to dribble and do this myself. Basically the sports equivalent of hold my beer and dribbles the entire length of the court and then gets to about the three point line and then dribbles off his foot and like kind of flails around what you'd think. Like if I ran a fast break, that's what it looked like.

And they go back to this. So now it's overtime. They go back to the bench. They're yelling at each other. Kevin Durant has this look like I'm just fucking tired of this shit. And everyone was kind of dissecting the body language and saying, oh my God, they're mad at each other. It comes out later on today that they, the argument continued into the locker room and

apparently sham said, in midst of verbal exchange on court late in Monday's game, Dreymon Green challenged Kevin Durant about Durant's impending free agency. As teammates came at green about his turnover, he responded, this has been a simmering issue for the Warriors today. Now I'm going to forget that he said today and I'm going to actually change that a little. He said, this has been a simmering issue for the Warriors for months. Okay. Yeah, that's much better.

Nice edit much better. Well, he was saying today I'm saying that this has been a simmering issue for us. So the Warriors are all fighting. So they're fighting each other. This is a classic. There's just one ball. We all predicted this when Katie went out there that it was going to screw up the team chemistry.

We were right. It just took us a longer time than we thought to get injured and for a random game in November. Yeah. But we were right. He screwed the chemistry. Draymond, what I respect about him, what I like about him as a player is he's a guy that will have this one thing against you in the back of his mind and he's always ready to deploy it.

If he for one second thinks that you're not on the same page as he is. So he's had like, in his mind, he's identified weaknesses with everybody around him that he's quick to jump to with Katie. It's like free agency. You're the free agent guy. So the second Katie fucks with him, boom, that's getting deployed. And we all know that that's one thing that will mess with Katie's mind too. And now the Warriors are saying that Draymond's not going to play in Oklahoma City.

Is that correct? Yeah. They're sitting. Tonight. So I bet you. Kevin Durant's going to score 60 points, by the way. Even though Draymond's sitting out, Russ Westbrook and Draymond are going to have a couple conversations where they look at, they're going to fist bump, they're going to give each other a big hug

before the game, big hug after the game, just to get inside Katie's head. But this is our out. This is the out for anyone who wants to see basically any other team win the NBA championship in the next five years. Kevin Durant, Draymond Green, Kevin Durant being like, this isn't worth it to me. He's probably winning another title this year, probably winning another MVP, finals MVP. And then be like, you know what, I'm going to go work for James Dolan. Wait, that part doesn't sound right.

That doesn't make any sense. I'm going to go work for, I'm going to go work for LeBron. Space Jam. Space Jam too. Yeah. And then the fans sitting and being like, yes, Kevin Durant's coming to New York. You forgot that Kevin Durant, in order for Kevin Durant to play from New York Knicks, he has to at some point take a meeting with James Dolan.

That's where it all falls apart. That's going to be a big red flag. Here's what they should actually do. Bring Carmelo in and then they all have a common enemy and everybody starts hating Carmelo. And then that, that galvanized the team. They're like, you know what, Katie, you're not so bad. He's a fall guy. Yeah.

Bring in your fall guy, Carmelo, get rid of him after like a week and the team will be all back together. I hope they don't actually do that because that would be smart. Yes. But yeah, I think it's probably more likely than not that Katie is going to be getting like a co-producer credit on Space Jam too. This is all good. Still in pre-production.

This is all good. I just checked IMDB today to see if it's in production yet. Nope. Still pre-production. This is all good. And it also, you know that there's always like, I know it's manufactured and it's sports, hot takes and all that stuff, but just by nature, there's probably a divide and always has been an underlying thing between Draymond Clay and Steph and then Kevin Durant.

Yeah. Because he gets added and they had their nucleus and they won one without them. They probably secretly didn't even want them to sign. I'm actually surprised Draymond Green didn't like flash three at him and be like, I got three rings. You have two. Yeah. You know what this is like?

I'm going to get a little geopolitical here on you. This is like the last like 25, 30 years, Russia has been just hoping that US starts to fuck up. They're like, we, okay, we still have a grudge against you guys. I want to see the only remaining superpower fall. Then he starts seeing like, you know, you're Russia, you see Republicans, Democrats start like going at each other a little bit hard on Twitter, a lot of division, then you start your own like little troll farms and start to stoke the flames and make the sides hate

each other, divide them kind of how we like, we tried to divide dude perfect. That's what we need to do to the Golden State Awards. We see them as the only super team and now it gets what there's a little crack, there's a little crack and that's when the internet needs to start to get after them. Yeah. Can we hire the, the Russian Kremlin agency just to, to troll, redirect all their hours. Draymond Green. Well, KD probably works right there with all the burner accounts.

Well, I was going to say that, that analogy works because US is Kevin Durant and we are way too sensitive on Twitter. So all the bots come and start chirping us and we have to answer all of them and everyone just breaks their brain being like who's a bot, who's not a bot, like, you know, going after people on Twitter. So they, they realized that we're, we're just soft. We could actually break down. We're easily trigger, triggerable.

We are. We can, we also have the power to, to take down the Golden State Warriors. If we work as a, as a team. I just, yeah, I think we need to do it two ways. I think we need to do, I think we need to go after Draymond Green because look, look, people have gone after Kevin Durant. Yeah. Leads the triple B.

Whatever. But we need to do a new strategy with him. We need to go after Draymond Green and after Steph and be like, Hey, Kevin Durant is the best player on the team. You guys are nothing without him. And then go after Kevin Durant and be like, Hey, you're the best player on the team. You deserve your own team. Yep.

Let's do it. Yeah. It's real shame people treated that. Listen, all I'm saying, the facts are Golden State Warriors were not a super team until KD joined them. Mm hmm. They were just, they were just team. They were a good team.

They were a team. Now they're a super team. Yeah. They, no. Yeah. They did lose to the war. They did. They're most recent when distract you from the fact that they blew a three one series

lead against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Yes. People have been, they, we've stopped saying that recently. And that actually was Draymond Green's fault because you got ejected. That's true. Steph, maybe you should, Steph, maybe you should still be mad about that. Yeah. KD, maybe, maybe you should bring that one up.

Don't think about. All right. Let's do hot seat, cool throne. Hank, why don't you start my hot seat? I have a few, one hot seat that people aren't talking about with this whole Warriors thing is that Aisha Curry recently followed Vanessa Bryant on Instagram. Ooh. So what if Steph was the one to leave the Warriors, go to the Lakers and leaves KD to

deal with Draymond and all the trash in Golden State? Now when is, when Steph's contract up? I'm not sure. I didn't look into that part of this hot seat. Okay. That's a minor, minor detail. Doesn't matter for this. But don't worry about those facts.

I do like the idea of it. Like having, having KD having, it's like he inherits a family because he marries some really hot mom and he's like, I've got all these cool step kids now and then the mom leaves for another person, the kids start smoking and you know, doing all sorts of fucked up stuff and getting each other pregnant and then now you have to clean up that mess. Yep. One of my other hot seats was a selfies. So coach K, I was watching the Duke like the program show on ESPN plus and coach K.

Oh great. The propaganda channel for Nick Saban and coach K. Yeah, it's great. And Cal. Coach K doesn't take selfies. He's like, I'm only going to take a picture if someone else takes it. Why? Because he's just, those pictures are better.

He cares about the quality of people's pictures. Well, yeah, it sounds like he might be also a vampire. Or, or as someone who can speak on this because I too dye my hair. When you get very up close, you can notice the dye. Hmm. Nope. Hmm. No, I know.

I know. When I take a selfie, I can see the gray hair. I can see the gray hairs. He wants the best quality pictures for his fans. Make sure you get a really good thing of him to do. Ten feet away when taking a picture of coach K. Very nice of him. Hmm.

Interesting. Uh, my cool throne, I have a few as well. Oh, okay. Cool thrones. Cool thrones. Got it. Sacramento Kings. Yup.

NBA's darling. They're the, they're the 2016 Raiders of the NBA right now. Ooh. Okay. Everyone's talking about it. Cross or cross year. Yeah. I like it.

So if you, if you want it, if you want it hot, like, oh, watch out for the Kings, Kings, Kings culture has changed. I remember what happened like two years ago with, or two weeks ago with the Oakland Raiders. What happened in 2016? They had the Jacto Rio year. Oh, okay. Where they were hot. And then Tim Carp broke his back and then Connor Cook had to start a new team.

Oh yeah. The, yeah. Connor Cook played against Texans. Yeah. It was like cooking against Oswiler. The Silver, the Silver Road uniforms in the playoff game looked awesome. They did look cool. I do remember that.

Okay. But very relatable. Hank, go on. Uh, the mother cool throne is Pokemon. Why? They're coming out with a movie. I'm starring Ryan Reynolds. Okay.

I knew it was going to be a detective. Okay. No Ash Ketchum. And they're going to use everyone's personal information that they stole from us with Pokemon Go to get us to buy this movie. I don't know if that will be part of the movie. Got it. Remember how stupid that fad was when they're like, hey, just download this app and it will

have a camera that transmits everywhere and then catch all these fun Pokemon all in your house and around your property and, and send all that video back up into the sky where they can steal everything. Yeah. Like when you bought an iPhone, like, well, yeah, but this was sending it to Pokemon. Yeah. Just point your camera. Apple.

Apple. Third party authentication. Apple. Not a third party. No, that's the second party. One way they make the phone. Apple's, Apple's fucking me. Apple's been fucking me for years.

I don't care about that. Yeah. I care about the third parties. With Pikachu. It was, well, what's it? It was a Pokemon that did it or was it a Nintendo app? Uh, no, it was the Pokemon Go app. Pokemon Go app.

Yeah. But I don't know who makes it. I think I'm just walking. I think I'm just walking around the street looking at their phone unlike all the other times. Well not, not just on the street. You were inside your apartment showing them the air ducts and, like, catch them all and in.

Hey, can you open up your, your bank files? Catch them all? There's one sitting right above your social security number. Yeah. There's actually one right next to the nuclear reactor code. So just point your camera at that and get the most valuable one of all. So I'm just sick of what he's like a Canadian actor and he's taking, he's appropriating and taking jobs.

Yeah, I think he dated a Lannis Morset. This is gonna sound very stupid But I'm just gonna say it if you are in more than three movies Where you're in America in the movie you're American. Mmm. Yeah, very address Elba that guy's American He was in the wire. Yeah, when I found out he had an English accent. It blew my fucking mind I'll do the asterisks. Oh, that was wild. He is Vancouver. Yeah. Yeah, if you are in Vancouver So not only was Alba in multiple things in America, but he had different accents right in each one, right? Which really fucks with you, right? It's like I don't do my own plays accent better than I can yeah, you're more American Christian pale American

100% Russell Crowe American exactly Russell brand British. Yes, because he always keeps it exactly exactly like that Hugh Jackman American American Wolverine well actually he's kind of he's not he's not a species of these earth I was gonna say he's Chilean recipe Stanley. Yeah. Oh, we'll get to that. Okay. Yes. All right. That was a hot cool throne Hey, yeah, is that it? Yeah. Okay. All right multiple my hot seat You only have one. No, well, it's two. Oh my first one. It's former

Hang on my I divvied this up wrong my hot Okay, my hot seat is Minnesota Timberwolves opponents Okay, this is not a fun stat, but rather it's an interesting fact from listener Matt McCam, okay He says interesting fact for you guys D Rose has been on the court for Paul George's injury Gordon Hayward's injury and now Karris Leveritz injured and all his that's what I was gonna say And we're talking about the fact that he has been part of like the pendulum has swung on the other side

Yeah, whatever karma like people are like, oh watch off D Rose It's equal right. I also saw that tweet PFT and I didn't read the full thing I just saw Derek Rose been on the court for three injuries And I just thought it was Karris Lever and all of Derek Rose's knee injuries Yeah, all of his well still because Derick Rose been on the court for a lot more than three injuries He's like typhoid Mary if typhoid Mary also had like HIV and got sick all the time with things besides Typhoid also, did you did you see the Karris Leverit injury? No, the fact that he didn't break his foot He it's like just it's like a severe sprain. It's insane

Worse than they were like Livingston Paul George is pretty bad. He came but he came back. Yeah Sean Livingston was I think the the key to is an injury bad is was there ever a tweet that said they might have to amputate And I'm pretty sure Sean Livingston had that. Oh, absolutely Let's all give ourselves a pat on the back for not like as a society for not like putting the video out there of this injury I didn't see oh, you had to go try to find it. Oh, I found it. Yeah, you had to oh, yeah Yeah, I didn't see it. Nobody put it on the timeline. Mm-hmm. Oh, I went out America. Oh, yeah, my other hot seat is capitals capital capital letters because DJ Swaranger

No, DJ Swaranger the defensive back on the our words wrote an Instagram post where he capitalized Every single word except for his former head coach Bill O'Brien Nice that he put in lowercase letters because they're playing against the Texans and Bill O'Brien's bad coach and no way He's gonna win a Super Bowl. Yeah, exactly. No way is going to Super Bowl But so cap so capitals are on the hot seat my cool throne The capitals because Tom Wilson's back. So that's my first cool throne my second bag is back My second cool throne is flight tracking. Okay, so we're big flight tracker guys When it comes to college coaching searches correct, we're hot on the trail right now of less miles

So there's a flight From Lawrence, Kansas that took off to Baton Rouge Louisiana earlier today and so it's all over the internet We've got all the super sleuths that are on the college message boards. They're not tracking the caravan anymore They're back to doing stuff that actually matters like these flights and the tail Numbers match up to a University of Kansas jet Whoa, so as first reported on part of my take stolen from message boards online Less mile and then less miles will be the next head coach at the Kansas Jayhawks. The the best the best

Idea that I saw was Kansas should just start running the triple option Why not like you suck? You're always gonna suck unless you bring back Mark Manjini You suck so just run the triple option and just fuck everyone up No one wants to play against the triple option. You don't have to recruit a quarterback Right, you weren't going to be able to do that anyways, right just recruit three running backs Right and then have them just throw the just take your rugby team And then just put them in the backfield and have them toss tons of laterals to each other exactly Okay, my hot seats. I only got one of each because I respect this game

My hot seats is Carson Wentz because Skip Bayless has circled him and he's going after him He's now created Carson Wentz. So he's calling him Carson Wentz W I N C E Carson Wentz. So Carter these are these go back these date back I guess people thought they were just he was just fucking up the name but these date back a while and He says why Eagles why they just lost to Marcus Mario and overtime is earlier this year Carson Wentz as a Cowboys fans I have I hate to admit Carson is so good. He makes me Wentz Carson Wentz as an ouch I thought the guy was an MVP. He's so he's going at him. So once you get that name

I only know Carson Wentz. My problem with this is there seem to be two different definitions of Carson Wentz one Yeah, one of us makes you Wentz because he's so good That's 2016 that so he learned that he was going to start calling him Carson Wentz Now as like he Wences Why Carson Wentz deserves the most blame for the Eagles demise. Okay today So skip his his program algorithm has evolved and now Wentz is a bad thing. Yes. Okay. Got it. Exactly Exactly all right, so yeah, you're in trouble Carson Wentz and

My cool throne is actually for everyone who wants to get drunk all the time because I think we can officially say it's holiday season Very nice starting now very right now. We had it. I would yeah. No Hank I'm saying right now if you're drunk, you're okay because you can say it's holiday season.

That's weird Yeah, and also like on this shirt that big cats wearing you weren't sunglasses That's kind of lame. You're also not I mean kind of looking a little short today. Yeah, you really six one. Yeah I don't know about that. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, so I mean now you ready to go. I don't think you're that funny. I

Don't think you're funny. Oh, okay. Yeah. Yeah, here we go Now we're gonna have an excellent interview. All right, let's get it going. Let's get it going It's kind of Dion Sanders move. I wanted to start with Your rookie season. So you're halfway through your rookie season. It's been kind of a whirlwind You know obviously come in in the Thursday night game. You win against the Jets What how have you like how would you grade your rookie season thus far? Um Not, you know where I exactly want it to be

Happy I'm playing, you know because at first I didn't think I would be playing got thrown into the fire a little bit, but There's a lot that can be better But I think this place is starting to go in the right direction and to me That's the most important thing is it's not gonna change after one game. We have to fix all the little things so There's a lot of frustration, but I think it's about the change and that's that's the best part about it Yeah, so you were told going into the season. It was pretty explicit, right? They like don't expect to play for the entire year. Yeah, absolutely. It was even before the draft They told me what their plan was they were gonna have two veterans here

They're gonna bring in a guy drew stand to be a mentor to whoever they drafted and they were gonna have a guy that was gonna play And to our Taylor so That was the plan I knew about that before I was here and it was just laid out for me Yeah, it was interesting going to this draft You seemed like from everything that I've read you knew you were going to the Browns like there wasn't even a question in the back Your mind like you were pretty solid on that But if you hadn't gone to the Browns were there any other teams that were like hey, we're gonna get you There was a couple interviews that I thought went well, but no team was just like hey

We're gonna do this I mean that there was interest and stuff like that But I think they and they kind of keep their cards close to the vest Yeah, were you shocked to go number one because I mean we'll get into your back story But to basically go from a walk on to number one like was there what at what point in the draft process you're like Wait, I might actually go number one because I know you you kind of went from mid first round all the way up to number one Yeah, surprise a lot of the media. Yeah, so for me I couldn't really wrap my mind around it until a few days before

Somebody leaked information that the Browns were you know, we're gonna pick me number one overall I didn't know what to think of it because I had you know voiced my opinion that I wanted to go to Cleveland stuff like that that you know I was confident in myself that I could be the number one overall pick but actually wrapping my mind around that You know, it was a different thing actually being a reality. So it was it was pretty shocking. I was Normally, I'm not quiet, but on draft day I was that I was listening when I get nervous I'm quiet and that doesn't happen very often, but I didn't talk much that day. What were you? What were you nervous about?

Just you know because to me my whole journey No matter what anybody said I was gonna do something just because I wanted to like I controlled my own destiny That was always what it was and at that day I Had no idea where I was gonna be playing football next So yeah, it was something that wasn't in my control and for once that was like it was something so new to me I just didn't know how to wrap my mind around it And so you talk about controlling your own destiny for I think most people know the story But to rewind a little here you went to Texas Tech

You were the starter then was it that you basically Cliff Kingsbury was too hot and you're like I can't be around this guy Or why did you leave Texas Tech for Oklahoma? No, I was after I got hurt and then there was just some differences I thought I was gonna get a scholarship But you know, I've always had the mindset everything happens for a reason and I grew up in Oklahoma fan So that kind of made it easier that I was able to leave How did a guy like you not get a scholarship when you were like a great high school quarter? You think I'm short right now. You should have seen me back in high school. Yeah, that's all right

Five nine 511 yeah, no, it's no five nights. I was probably 11 during junior year when they were like recruiting was happening Yeah, like the you know most critical time for recruiting And that's you know, I can so you grew you grew up in Austin, but you're you're an Oklahoma fan It never occurred to you to try to walk on it at UT. I didn't want to I Grew up in Oklahoma fan, but when it came down to everything being so frustrating recruiting my dad called Some people it takes to be a connections and asked if they had a spot for me to walk on and they said they didn't need me to walk on so I

Found that out after the fact not even as a safety. Yeah brown didn't even try to recruit you as a safety Yeah, not like Robert Griffin or Johnny. No, yeah, that's a specialty So wait, did you you got a scholarship from some schools though, right? first one was to rice and Had the option to play baseball and football there and then after that I had four more Army, New Mexico, Florida Atlantic, and Washington State And did you consider any of them Washington State with Mike Leach or Florida Atlantic on the beach at Boca Raton? Yep, I think the reason I didn't go there is because I never took an official visit. I might have if I did

Yeah, also, I mean laying kiffin's hot too. So it's like sounds like you hate hot coaches It wasn't there yet. Yeah, but yeah, he his aura was around always on so you go Texas Tech You you have a difference of opinions with coach Kingsbury You decide to leave and then so you decide to enroll it at Oklahoma and where you've not like This might not work out like I'm gonna walk on at Oklahoma. Oklahoma is a football factory Was there any moment where you're like this might not work out for me? No and like I said earlier with like the draft process I always thought I controlled my own destiny that I could make it there no matter what and so during that Only reason I got in so I left tech like December 13th

I think and then I enrolled in school that next semester only because I had applied at a high school so it was a quick transition and I wasn't able to be with the team until like three weeks into the semester and It was just I never had a doubt in my mind, but it was not the best of times Was that story true where Bob stoopes like walk by you in the cafeteria like I'm gonna be the starting quarterback Yeah, so we were at a team dinner It was the first day I could actually be involved in anything team activity And they had a dinner in there the sweets in the stadium that night And I was sitting at the table with some of the guys that I had met and coach stoopes walked in and I wanted to go introduce myself

So I'd watched him coach all my life and just want to let him know that I was there and yeah, I caught him off guard That's amazing. I always wonder about those stories because Obviously you proved everyone wrong to doubted you but is there someone out there right now who's walking around being like I'm gonna be the starting quarterback Oklahoma, and then he just never works out and we never hear that story So it's actually kind of a small smart bet on your part Yeah, you can just say a bunch of stuff and nobody else. Yeah, no one would ever know Well, then there's the other side to it So were there ever any teammates that you had where obviously you walk in with this confidence and you're not afraid to say shit like hey

I'm gonna be the starting quarterback Were there any teammates that that rubbed the wrong way that you had to either win back or just like it that became like a Fraction between you and them Honestly, no, I think it helped that I had played a little bit of text-to-text before that Maybe it could have rubbed in the wrong way. They never let me know or I just have a bunch of fake friends But I don't think that's true Yeah, Baker you're so great But now we had a good group of guys there the quarterbacks that I came in there with so Trevor and I'd had just come off the

Sugar Bowl win and then Cody Thomas who's now playing baseball Two good guys that I couldn't have stepped in a better room with Cody Thomas's I mean you just say that name and that's like 4,000 yards in the big 12 pretty easy Yeah, doesn't even have to just pick a spot. Do you miss playing against big 12 defenses? It's easy. Yeah Yeah, it's easy. Yeah, do you were you worried at all because I'm as someone in the sports media I am very much the hot take guy where I think big 12 quarterbacks stink and I did that with that's very nice of you Yeah, do you did you think like at all that the playing in the big 12 would maybe hurt your Obviously didn't hurt your draft stock

But people would doubt you because of the defenses are so bad Yeah, and those are the things that I heard during the process was that he's never really played any good competition But because I had played a strong non-conference schedule. That's just what Oklahoma does I think that helped my case a little bit and playing in some big bowl games Yeah, all right. So the strong not non-conference schedules good segue the has you're in Cleveland now You obviously had the famous flag plant in Columbus. Do Buckeye fans still talk shit to you about that? Not anymore Okay, there's still some people that bring it up to go man. I used to really not like you or more explicit than that But yeah, they used to let me know

Yeah, I didn't have didn't have a very strong fan base here at first. Yeah, were you planning that before the game? Absolutely not you so that was just a spur of the moment Yeah, so I went over after the game where our our student section was and they're right next to our band They were right there and the people who had the flags were right there So I grabbed a flag took me about five minutes to unravel the whole thing sort of waving it around and then one of my teammates told me to run around the field with it So I got to about halfway. This is why I never ran track got to about halfway around the field And I started getting tired and then I saw some people in the other logo right there in midfield

So I went to meet them right there and yeah one thing led to another did occur to you that on a field turf field You can't really plan to flag that deep, you know Education yeah, you think so that I would assume that would be one of like three things you learn at Texas Tech though It's like how to put something I guess that wasn't there long enough. Yeah True well so the nice thing actually about being a walker I just occurred to be coaches always talk about having to like Unrecruit people or derecruit people once they get them on campus if you're a walk on nobody ever has to derecruit you So that's nice. That's like probably the coach probably loves that about you. Yeah, that's true. That's true

So the Ohio State flag I have a problem with that in the Kansas thing not that you did either of those things But that you apologized. I hated that you apologized. Yeah, what who made you apologize? I'm not gonna speak on that one Did you actually you were you actually sorry the Kansas one more than anything because I thought Kansas. Yeah, no I thought that apology. I was more mad about why because Kansas comes out doesn't shake your hand at midfield Axe cocky their Kansas football They're a joke and then you kick the shit out of them and then you obviously you're like, yeah You guys are a joke you should be able to do that

Like if you can't if Kansas comes out and it acts tough and then still gets blown out They should get everything that they deserve in that in that respect. So I thought that you apologizing was wrong I think it was more about being the bigger man in that one and letting them just you know Like you describe Kansas football letting them do that right and letting them stay at that level and then realizing the position I was in to be a good example Yeah, emotional player fiery, but I think there was just a line to be drawn and that's more so why apologize for that one Apologize for saying she'd go cheer for basketball. No, okay good. Well, I got a great basketball I would agree. Yeah, but I would apologize for that because I wouldn't actually want them to be good at basketball

Either if I were you like I just want them to suck in every so true. They dominate the big 12 So so like those things happen. Are you you just mentioned the fiery thing? It were you ever was coach stooped or anyone in your life being like hey, man You play on the edge try to keep it on the edge and not go over the edge. Oh, absolutely Lincoln was definitely that guy for me Lincoln Riley. So future coach. I thought you've been Abe Lincoln He was also good at that though. Yeah, just like cool and everybody out Well fun fact so but how that process go down like basically saying we like what you do Baker We like how you play with this edge, but we need you to dial it back

I think it started with with Bob stoopes Just kind of letting me be myself through the first two years that I played under him And just the daily conversations I had with Lincoln about doing that be just being myself But then after some of those things happen talking to them about, you know, just down a back end a little bit You know, there's a fine line of crossing over that edge and then just being who I need to be for that day Have you found yourself catching yourself like in the moment on that on that edge? No, I'm not anymore. Really? Yeah, okay Because I was getting soft. Yeah, is are you we can throw down right here? Yeah, there was actually an article came out today

I think Klimko wrote it. Yes, and he said that there was one point in the bucks game I think whitehead like poppy in the head. I thought was that the one they pulled the flag back for yeah You got up in the guy's house. I was allowed to be hit in the head. Yeah, that's right. Yeah, cuz you're not a star yet So yeah, right you're not Tom Brady. Yeah, you you're not getting the calls yet So you got in his face and you're like, yeah motherfucker hit me and I like got your team that rallied them around you Did you actually like you're watching film with the guys is that kind of the the attitude that they had they're like I like this guy because he's not afraid to stick his nose in there. Yeah I think I think that's why but it's also a guy that's gonna pop up after you get hit like that quickly

It gets under the defensive skin But then also it's very rare to see a quarterback with that fire with that energy to talk trash do all that stuff So it's just a it's a matter of earning guys respect. It's just a different way to do it Yeah, I actually know I believed you when you said a second ago like you want to throw down like for a second I thought you actually wanted to fight me. Klimko said you're a dog Yeah, and that's like the best compliment you can get in the NFL your dog line between B word and dog Yeah, but so you so you're a dog Do you have you noticed the change in the locker room where everyone's like, you know

Baker is our guy and if you've been able to be more vocal or are you just trying to still lead by example? It was tricky at first, you know that that question So when I was here and I like I wasn't playing it was tricky because I'm such a vocal leader I'm such an emotional guy But I had to dial it back in because Toronto's a captain He was a starter and so it's it's taking me a little bit to realize that I can actually just let it go and be myself And I think that we need that right now I think it's a culture thing more than anything and so it's a frit to really head in the right direction like I talked about

I have to do that and so I'm starting to see that a little bit But it's gonna take it day by day and it starts with me just actually playing well Because if I'm talking none of that really matters if I'm not doing my job, so you got to be playing right I want to talk to you real quick about about that like a relationship with the other quarterback on the team. Do you miss broken? Bro back. Yeah. Yeah, yeah broken for a guy. Yeah Still probably yeah, he didn't hit me up. He's gotten too big time He hit hard knocks in and he just accelerates to yeah, how interesting how weird was hard knocks different

You know, so I did like a pre-draft documentary series and I so I was kind of used to the cameras following me around every day stuff, but Not within meetings and actual like when I'm at work So that was different like going into meeting rooms and having cameras there or going out to practice and being mic'd up every day Or somebody around you was mic'd up every day It was strange But once you got used to it you realized you had to find your safe zone to go talk and most of the time that was the RV Yeah, there you go. Did you have like you would take your lobs off when you go in there was like no mic

So There was yeah, yeah until Brad Paisley came in there, but I mean, what are you gonna say to Brad Paisley? Yeah, yeah, exactly. You can't say no to him Did you watch hard knocks? I did not I just saw clips. Okay, interesting. I mean the star of hard knocks was I think we can all agree Bob Wiley Yes, this that hut. Yeah, I saw those clothes. So those are types of clips that I did see. Yeah, what yeah, what type of guy is Bob Wiley? He doesn't believe in stretching He has a lot of old-school sayings like the other week he said he brought up how If a king was killed they used to hold up his head and say hail to the king and then a point the next one

I don't know. He says a bunch of random stuff But you kind of just have to enjoy yeah, he wears a sweater inside out I don't like that. He said he said it's because in high school. He did that and he started a trend He's got like we're backpack over one shoulder kind of a rebel. Yeah Guys got flow though, I didn't get dressed in the dark totally a trend. He does have flow his mustache has flow actually Yes, he's got curls on the mustache. Does anyone make fun of his belly? No, okay, I mean besides when it moves up and down Like we're dancing around earlier

But you obviously like had to take a backseat a little bit to tie rod when you got there's a to rod or tie rod It's to rod to rod, but he doesn't care. So, okay tie rod tie rod Backseat to tie God when you got to camp but now like obviously it's able to turn a little bit What what kind of support has he given you and is that? Relationship like a little bit weird because I would expect it to be like a little awkward. No That's why I love being here. I couldn't be in a better situation. So he's a he's a veteran guy He's very quiet. He sticks to his own business But he's he's the type that he's here to help us win, you know, so whatever he can do to help

Yeah, obviously he wants to play and that's that's how we all are But at the same time he realizes that any tips of advice that he can give me so I mean he's going into his eighth ninth year I think and so it's just He's seen a lot of stuff and he can help me out and he's been great about it in little stuff I mean, he could be He could be an ass about it, but he's not he's a great guy and then I also have Drew Stendling on too Yeah, so it's still fresh where it's the it's November 6. We're gonna air this in a week from now Obviously the coach turn over that happened what like did that take you by surprise or were you could you kind of feel it in the building?

There was stuff that I tried not to pay attention to you know, just trying to come do my job and Yeah, there was there was stuff and distractions But it was it caught me off guard because that's the first time mid-season or anything like that that I've ever had happened to me Like when Bob retired it was during the offseason and we had time to get used to that But then showing up on Monday and having two of my coaches fired. Yeah, that was That was my welcome to the business of the NFL moment. Yeah, it just it was shocking to me But it is what it is and you have to roll with the punches

You get you got to show up to work the next day and move forward. Have you talked to either guy? I have both. Okay. Yeah, nice. And you're just like, what did you say? Don't it's all I appreciate them They both believed in me. I mean, there's not much else I can say, you know, I'm not Knowledgeable about the you know, the whole business side of it. Just wishing wishing the best of luck and you know, tell him thanks Yeah So you're in kind of a unique position where whoever the next coach is gonna be is gonna be kind of tied to you at least for the next Several years. If you were to design your next new head coach, would he be named Bob Stoops or Lincoln Riley? Or Mike McCarthy

Never talked about another man's job or John DeFilippo Do you think that I mean has John Dorsey we obviously there's rumors that float around but Do you think John Dorsey will include you in any conversations? Has he been open with you about like? I mean, it's obviously premature, but no, I think he'll handle that I think he knows me well enough to you know, kind of understand what I like But it's not about me. It's about this whole franchise. So whatever they do whatever decision they make I'm gonna roll with it. Just like I have been since I got here. That's a super diplomatic answer I think it's the right answer to give but it's not what you're looking for

But it's not what I'm looking for and we're trying to get a headline here So like one thing you got to learn about the biz is you feed us we feed you then we'll protect you because you gave us good Scoop, I don't think you're gonna pretend Okay Blake portals and Jared Goff and all of our guys, I mean we die for those guys you do. Yeah, I Appreciate it. You are going to this position where it's like They're going to try to hire somebody that will be able to maximize a skill set of somebody They've just invested, you know, so much of the organization's capital in and that's you

So if you're looking at an offensive guy, are you looking to to do something that's like would you be excited to play for a system? That's like the offense you ran at Oklahoma or what are you looking for personally to me? Yeah, obviously the easiest answer to be yeah, I'd love to run the offense that it will Oklahoma That's because I had three years to do it and I got so comfortable in it But I think whatever we decided to do I need to relate those schemes that I've learned over time and just do what we're best at I can I've always believed that it doesn't matter what we're doing as long as I'm making the guys around me better That's truly what it's all about if I can get the playmakers making plays and you know get the ball out make it easy

And our offensive line. I think that's the most important part So however we do that to make the guys around me better. That's the best option Just so you know, we're just gonna take the first part of that answer where you said I would love to run the offense Yeah, clip it clip it make the headlining. Yeah, there you go. Um, can we talk about the hate list? Oh, yeah What is that the list you keep of haters? How has it grown or is have you retired it? I remember I went soft. I got soft Yeah, but yeah, I think you still have a burn book. Yeah, so how is it on your phone? Or is it like well, it used to be you know on a piece of paper old-school nice

We've transferred over a few different devices was coward always number one. No, okay Oh, who was number one were we ever it started early? No, no, well, I had some tweets. I looked it up I'm gonna read them to you. Let's hear it. I said Baker's tummy shirt is adorbs That was kind of mean my tummy shirt. Yeah, you know when you wear your little tummy shirt at Oklahoma Yeah, Tommy go. Yeah, I said good thing We gave Baker the Heisman after week two because sake one is incredible good take by me and I say you ended up He's great. Yeah, I mean, you're not you're not wrong by that. Yeah, I also said Baker's rattled Capitalized rattled that was during the Rose Bowl. Were you rattled? No, okay

so I thought I might have been on the list at some point and Yeah, that was basically it when you didn't show up. That was your long list of three tweets Well, no, there was also one. I found that said from fart box 69. He said Baker stinks and he's short. He'll never be anything That's if you make the last part box 69 on the list like who would you take the little burner account? No, the little guys make the burn list or only the big guys Little guys make it all the time. Oh, nice I did I went through your tweets and looked at who you liked and There was one tweet that you liked from like two months ago and said you will never win or you're not gonna win a single game in your first

10 weeks in the NFL Remember this tweet and you liked it and your book market for yourself. I said at the senior bowl I think that's when you selfishly missed the media availability because you had the flu Oh, yeah, no, I was able a rose. Okay. Yeah, so I said I call this guy Baker's dozen because he acts like he's 13. Oh See, here's the thing funny story about that all my friends from back home say I'm 12 and no matter what year it is I've always been 12 years old. So as long as you're calling me 13, that's a win in my Yeah, I'll take it. What about Jason McIntyre who said that you went to your phone too quickly after the first win. Yeah, that was the craziest take of all time

Is that guy I? Kenny here's the thing so my brother sent me he was so mad about it. It's so funny So he sent me that the link of it or whatever was and I had had him blocked on Twitter Who knows when I did that that was probably a long time ago, right? But it's just guys like that that they have the most irrational opinion and they never have to be correct, right? It's even more so than being a weatherman. You can show up to work every day if you're wrong on it Oh, well, all right. Well, we just moved the goalpost. That's kind of immediate. So like if I'm like Baker's a bust You could win a Super Bowl and bike. Yeah, but he hasn't won five Super Bowls

So he's still busting my eyes. He's a system quarterback. Yeah, so you just you keep moving the goalposts and we can never wrong Yeah, right. Did you when you walked out of that coward? I mean that one obviously went viral you owned him Did you walk out being like I own this guy and did you maybe shake hands after or you still kind of we shook hands? But no, I walked away from it having the same opinion about it as I did before Right, he's gonna he's gonna be a fair weather guy and as soon as I showed up He was nice and brought up stuff and when I proved him wrong it was still You know, he's not gonna say the things that he says when I'm not on air, right when I'm actually there

I did notice I was just say about your leadership that it's only you in this interview and not the entire rest of your team You know what? I I can't speak on that. You know, it's Tuesday. It's their day off So they won't come into work on their day off. Well, they're not coming into interviews Where's the band now you're running the student section that was such a cop-out you were trying to flex on everyone Here's a good question. What did you check first Instagram Twitter or do your text messages? You read your phone after the Jets game. I went I went so I got I Went to my phone to check my family text. Yeah, that's fair fair move I said that when he when he had that take which is Magda had that day

It's like who wouldn't after one of the biggest nights of their life go check You know, so all your family checking in with you since I wasn't supposed to be playing my parents and my brother went out there. Oh So I wouldn't get I wouldn't see them after the game Yeah calling them right away because normally that would be something that they're there and able to celebrate with but so a little Different right to take that Jason. Yeah, that's right. That's right You just start running to the dog pound after touchdowns. That would be the most Yeah, we'll get some more of those and I'll be able to do that. Okay. Nice. I like that Real quick. Can you do you have your phone on you right now? Can you check and see if Big Ben blocks you on Twitter?

He blocks like 70% of the internet. I'm not joking. Just check for me Well, it's it's actually a woman runs the No, we don't know that I'm confirmed runs the account. I'm gonna be blocked forever He might block. I hope he blocks you. He might block you How sick was that time I've been seven when you guys tied remember that? You're tight. It's a twice. No, they almost You guys you guys love ties What it's true you do you love overtime

Um No, he doesn't lock you so okay. Are you heard about that? Yeah a little bit. Well, I mean, he seriously blocks 70% Yeah, yeah after games when you're like when you're talking people in your shaking hands with Big Ben or whoever Is it awkward and weird to come up with stuff to like bullshit with the other quarterback about like hey, man That was good fun. Hey great throw. We tied. Yeah, good. Good stuff. Yeah, what do you say? No, it's it's normally you kind of narrow it down unless you have a history with that person Got an error it down today, man. Good luck to you. Stay healthy. Good to see you See you soon stuff like that

What about an NFC team you won't see them for four years you got to get better on that We motivate I want to go back my first time right? Yeah, I want to go back in time real quick the we talked about this a couple weeks ago and since Patrick Holmes has come on the scene this year the Oklahoma Texas Tech Games 66 59 in 2016 you had 545 yards seven touchdowns Homes had five touchdowns and two running touchdowns. Do you remember that game of being like this is the most fun I've ever had playing football? It was a lot of fun That was definitely one of those games I'll never forget it's up there probably in my top five games but I

Would say just the atmosphere because that was my first time going back to the Lubbock to play The crowd Definitely gave me a warm welcome back home about 45,000 people chanting FU Baker Because I say 45,000 because it wasn't all of them. Yeah, it was a strong Yeah, strong portion of them. So that was fun and then just I think there we had to score on every possession in the second half So it was just so much back and forth. That was a long game Yeah, it'll keep tracking your head as the game's going like I have probably like 400 yards now At that point in the game now that just trying to score more than they were were you in the zone?

Or was it just that's that's just big 12 defense. I was in the zone. You were what's the zone like? It's a fun place. Yeah, it's clear. Okay. You don't hear a lot. Mm-hmm sounds like you're just high I'm in the zone right now. I'm in this one most of my life. Yeah, I'm feeling great not listening to anybody What about the breath our picture? What did uh, what made you do that? I grew up a huge breath our fan. Okay. He was he was my number one quarterback I wanted to be like by the way, I say breath our picture. I should clarify the breath our draft picture Yeah, yeah, you have to make that I'm coming to make that clear the breath our draft picture when he's wearing shorts short jean shorts Yeah, so you created that it was awesome. It was awesome. Yeah

Grew up a big breath far fan, but it was kind of a joke of an idea about my family You know they last like oh, what if we did that? But then when I got so I came home a week early before the draft just stayed the whole week And they had actually started ordering things to re-enact it and so they kind of ran with the idea And so once they had the materials and everything Alright, we're actually doing it. That's it was a good picture. Yeah, walk me through the underwear advertisement Oh, that's another tiger and it was like a Rolls Royce. Mm-hmm. You were wearing jeans over your underwear That you didn't have the confidence to yeah, yeah, yeah, you didn't have the confidence to go just underwear

You know I'm trying to blind anybody with my thighs. Yeah, all right Well, I said that when I met you the first time I was like you Baker might be short really short, but he's thick Yeah, he's about to fight you Was that your idea to have the tiger no, absolutely not that's good, okay Yeah, no When they brought the tiger out so it's the tiger from the hangover. Oh The thing's big so it's Mike Tyson's tiger. Yeah Problematic. Yeah. Well, it's in the movie. Okay. Yeah, I don't think this is tigers

Here's a good question. Did you earn your brown stripe on your underwear? I did. Okay. Yeah, I made the roster. Yeah Yeah, all right, let's I have a couple more questions. We'll wrap up here in a second the Seeky question Put in promo code take you get $10 off Seeky question Your Seeky purchase go see a Browns game go see Baker in action in Cleveland promo code take $10 off There's a thing we do. It's called people also ask So on Google if you're like if you Google Baker Mayfield, it's like people also asked like how old is Baker Mayfield? People also asked that I didn't ask that. Do you how old are you people are asked 23? Okay, 23 But then there was one that said how tall is Baker Mayfield really?

That was the actual question. Do you want the real answer? Really? Am I stretching beforehand or stretching? Wait, you can get an extra inch if you stretch. Oh, absolutely. Okay. Okay. You stretch good Yeah, you stretch six one six one. I measured in like six foot and five eight. Okay. So you just lied a second I didn't stretch I've measured in over six one. Yeah, you got a measure from the base and you get that extra half inch Yeah, this is common stuff. So actually if you stretch Comments if you stretch you can actually like extend your spine. I'm being serious. I'm not even kidding you. I I did so I went First time I visited my fiance's home in Omaha, Nebraska They have a one of the inversion table where you hang upside down. Yeah, and I'm not even kidding you

I got taller off that like a bat. Yes sleep like a bat and you get taller interesting I'm gonna. I don't think you can really sleep like a bat. Yeah, I wouldn't suggest doing that for too long Yeah, I'm gonna try. Yeah, you'll be fine. I'm absolutely. I'm absolutely gonna give it a shot. Yeah What did you learn from Todd Haley? He cost No, I had a few coaches before that like Mike Stoops who learned how to do that with yeah No, I think with him it was How to always have fun because it was all the business stuff was new to me

But he always found a way to be smiling and just throw jabs and make it interesting every day, so Appreciative of him for that, but then I mean that's not even counting some of the offensive stuff He had to oh here's a good question. I forgot to ask you about hard knocks Did you ever watch that that slow motion pass that you threw was that one of the clips that you saw? They slow they took one of your practice reps and they slowed it down to like one 200th speed and it was the coolest it lasted for like five minutes the ball floating through the air you watch the whole thing Yeah, and I wanted to fuck the spiral. It was it was such a great spiral. Yeah, it was so hot It was pretty quick. So you haven't watched it yet. You should watch that. Yeah, you should watch you should watch that

You should it's a great. It's a great rep. Listen. I paid more attention to that rep than you did Yeah My last question is this is the portion of the interview where we let you predict when the Browns will win the Super Bowl 20 20 In the 21st century. Yeah. Oh, okay within the next how many years we have like 82 years Yeah, 82 years left. No, wait, is that the 20 how the centuries? It's how often Haley's comic. It's sometime in the next millennium. You the Browns will win the Super Bowl

Okay, we got that. Do you think you'll get a statue instantly the day that you win a Super Bowl for the Browns? I have no idea. Okay. So you are saying that you will win a Super Bowl with the Browns Just maybe not the statue and you're gonna clip that one. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. That's a clip I was writing it down that Johnny Manziel letter. That was weird, huh? That's different. Yes. Okay. He's gonna write you. Did he actually mail it to you? No, they just he just mailed it to ESPN And it was a letter to Baker Mayfield. Yeah by way of Yeah, he sent a letter to Jack Collinsworth that was addressed to Jack Collinsworth actually committed a federal crime By opening your mail intercepted my mail. Yeah, did you think the whole Johnny Manziel comparison was weird a

Little bit, but I also saw similarities Both not the biggest quarterbacks, you know, he he's definitely when the play breaks down He's able to make more plays, but there's still that kind of similar game type And just the passion for the game. I think those are the things that I saw true and I Mean making some mistakes in college people wanted it's the easiest thing to say is just that's I mean the easy way to put it Easy comparison without having to do any other research at all. Yeah, that was I saw it, but Whatever credit to us. I don't think we ever made that comparison. No, I don't think so I think we just made fun of people who made the yeah, I think we just said Johnny Manziel is a better quarterback than you

Yeah, he's taller More accurate. Yeah, that's a big credit to us. Look I'm motivating you right now. Yeah, we Just yeah, they actually John Dorsey actually set up this entire interview is like we don't think Baker's playing with enough fire Can you bring the boys in? Yeah, get him going. Yeah, we're not even recording this Everything's fake. All right That's it for me everyone though needs to go and buy these shirts Baker. Thank you so much. Do you have any other questions? I just want to know like a little bit about playing with Jarvis Landry because he seems like a kind of guy that He he seems like his attitude is kind of similar to yours and like fiery take no shit from anybody

But then after this last weekend, I did notice he said something like it was after the Chiefs game You're like, I think we took some steps forward and there were some positives that we can build on and Jarvis was just like Fuck that. We lost. There's no steps taken forward. Yeah Jarvis is that type of guy and obviously I have that same attitude But at this point where we're at turning this franchise around We have to be able to find the positives and grow with that and then once we're at a certain point Then we really focus on the negatives and eliminate that so there's just a transition period and Jarvis has been Winning for a long time and so he wants to win. That's just who he is. I'm the same way. He's passionate. Yeah, so

Him and I we got to be a little careful fighting fire a fire. Yeah, I got you Oh, I had actually one last question. Do you ever talk too late? You already said No, we listen man. This is like number four of eight last questions. We have another 45 minutes We love overtime just like you guys. Yeah, did you guys? Did you ever touch did you ever touch could juice these? What were they rock crystals crystals not rocks you ever touch them? I'd never had Yeah, that's probably why you guys aren't winning enough. Yeah, I should have kept the crystals around you should have Like that guy. I think it was more of like if you know, it was a gift to some people. Did you give it on his way out?

I Don't know Okay, that's interesting placed him around the building. Yeah. Yeah, that's interesting. Oh, yeah, he cursed you The negative crystals be careful. He might have cursed the browns. You guys might go and not win any games in a season Bob Stoops That already happened. Okay, Lincoln Riley. No, that could you see was awesome. He was like he made hard knocks He's a good guy. He was pretty pretty funny guy and I like that So I was just saying names of coaches to see how he reacted facially. That's good to see who he really wants to be

Yeah, hey coach Freddie kitchens. That's a great football name. That is great. Freddie's good, dude Yeah, what's it? What is the difference between like the offense that he's gonna start running compared to what? Todd So we're saying with the same offense. He's just kind of throwing in little Twist and tweaks here and there from what he did in Arizona So he was the QB coach for calls Carson Palmer and also Drew Stanton our other one of our other quarterbacks. So Just a little bit different way to read certain plays. I mean with every coach they just like calling certain plays It's just a matter of you know, how frequently are they gonna do it?

So there's not that much difference. It's just how he wants to teach me how he wants me looking at it He's a good guy though. He's a He's country Josh McDaniels What about your reaction good coach Bruce you think he's a good coach good coach. Oh, you gave me a wink there That was wild He drinks paint. Did you know that have you ever met Bruce Ariens? Oh, so there's a connection He likes to throw back a few cocktails Jeff Fisher. Enjoy some. Oh, yeah respect for the man. Hmm. Me too John Fox Tremendous respect. All right

Baker, thank you so much and everyone go buy these shirts 100% of the net proceeds go into the Special Olympics Ohio. It's an awesome cause and now you actually have to come on our show Every week. I think that's part of the deal. What was that part of that? Yeah, that's part of the weekly recurring guest Baker Mayfield. I'll be honest. I didn't know about that one Yeah, and you also have to wear shirts with our face on it. Yeah, so Tit for tat and then now we'll got your back now We'll we do have your back now for life Yeah, that that is we'll start making a list as well because we have like a haters list for Blake Bortles

No, we do like people who are not allowed in the box when he goes to the Super Bowl The friends and family box which we will be invited when the Browns go to Super Bowl. Okay. Yeah, did you just invite yourself or yeah? No, we just that just happened. Okay, we're going we just agreed on. Yes. All right Just agreed on it sounds good that actually just was agreed on so we will be in the box the friends and family sweet When Baker Mayfield takes the Browns to the Super Bowl and then you'll check my text first before you go and hang out with your teammates afterwards because you'll be dying to see what everybody else is saying about you Yes, we'll take down the haters though.

Before we get to segments Hank what happened Hank our cows dead again I Dream on green is being suspended one game without pay Why does not say what about the B word that was said What do you mean? So you say that that someone said a B word to Kevin Durant last night? Dream on yeah, you just said you just said that you literally just said that to us When we're in between break that's actually me that said it. Oh, you said it. Yeah, but we're trying to give Hank

Did you say I give Hank credit? Okay, so what did you say? Yeah? Yeah, he'd call and say the word It's called he called in the Dramon was calling him a bitch. Are we a dream on green during the time? Oh, well, I think Dramon green is a part of my take podcast baby back bitch That is interesting interesting say the least Interesting to say the least petty wars

They kind of they've kind of ruined the rest of the NBA topics. We had to get to mm-hmm Mark El fault stinks. Well, I mean that was it does more a bad visual. Yeah, I feel bad for Mark El fault Listen the ball slipped it happens to the best of us. He's get his shooting motions fine He's made like two or three pointers this year. He's good. Yeah, I got a joke. Oh, oh, please tell is it a jazz joke? It's even better waiting. Yeah, Yos. His free throw form looked like Charles Barkley on the golf course I I could see that that's very good. See that. I'm gonna tweet that right now. I can see that That's super. So Mark El fault. I feel bad for him. He is like I know that he thinks it slipped but no it slipped he's got the yips and

What's a great solution to the yips? Jimmy Butler who's gonna come in and basically walk in and say I'm the alpha and you all need to be I actually think Mark El fault has the yips So bad that Jimmy Butler won't even put him on his team when he wants to prove to Embiid and Ben Simmons That he's better than that. Well, that would be the ultimate move is if you can win win with Mark El fault Then you're the true alpha. Yeah, I think little Mike Greenberg's dumb rules here Okay, you should be able to get called for a balk in basketball. Mmm. That was a book He bought there is the there's a free throw a lane violation. Yeah, but that's on your teammates

That's not on you. Well, you could do it, too You can step over the line But I yeah, but you should be able to be called for a balk if you do a little like people forget every single free throw that Jack took and every free throw that LeBron takes is basically a free throw violation in the playoffs LeBron doesn't start stepping over the line until like early April LeBron not being able to shoot free throws is so awesome I also would like them to start calling the inbound violation. Those those bother me They do get a little where the guy where after a made basket. He's basically stepped Chris Paul The Rockets do it's more than anyone where they're basically just all the way over the line throwing it in that would be such a

I'd love to see it because I'd like if they called it on a big superstar They'd lose their mind. It would be awesome. I also would like to see caring get called again. Yeah, my dad was really That's just because that's because you just want to see Delhi have a good. Yes, exactly. My dad was so anti Allen Iverson Yeah, Iverson was playing at Georgetown. He was like they he carries the ball in every session every play. I was like, yeah, but dad He's awesome. Yeah, he's gathering. Yeah, he's just gathering it. He's sick We so Jimmy Butler is going to the walls. He picked number 23 So which was sixers which was Andrew Wiggins father's number a little petty wars for you

Now it was also his number in Minnesota. Well, we're not gonna talk about that but much better story this way He was 21 and for the bulls. So why didn't you just go with 21? He could have another 21 on the Sixers. Yeah, fuck. All right, whatever that's neither here nor there's what petty worse, but what's worse? What he's doing right now or what Delante West did? LeBron true would you rather take? What did Delante would you rather take somebody's dad's number or take somebody's mom's virginity? Oh the virginity Yeah, yeah, it's because LeBron was immaculate. Yeah, exactly. He was he was given on from on high Yes, we also had one more NBA story Carmelo Anthony. I

Officially feel bad for Carmelo Anthony. I don't know if you guys saw this story about his last days in Houston I did not so this is from the athletic and it's about the last game that he played for them After the game tucked away in or sorry a number of players quickly headed for the showers Presumably eager to get as far away from Chesapeake Arena as possible tucked away in one corner was a dejected somber Anthony Fresh off an abysmal two-point performance on one of 11 shooting on national TV Nonetheless, I actually bet on the rockets that came that's really bad for nearly 10 minutes He sat hit his locker and stared at the wall Motionless he didn't have his phone in his hand and didn't utter a word to anyone

Just complete silence him and his thoughts in the midst of this Russell Westbrook who had missed the game with sprained ankle Entered the locker room looking for his childhood friend James Harden and yo, hurry your ass up Westbrook exclaimed from the doorway Respectively electing not to enter an unhappy locker room Westbrook did not acknowledge his former teammate Anthony who eventually gathered himself and took off for the showers as a fully dressed Anthony left the locker room Harden Westbrook and others were congregated in the back hallway that leads to the court Anthony bags in hand walked straight past them Eventually making his way to the team bus for the ride to the airport. That's great. Carmella Anthony is basically Charlie Brown That's great. It's like actually makes me feel bad for a guy who is millions and millions of dollars and a bunch of gold medals

Yeah, it's tough to do. My favorite part of that story was when it said Westbrook goes hurry your ass up Respectively yeah, respectfully didn't go all the way in yeah, but Carmella Anthony staring at a wall for ten minutes No phone nothing and then walking by as everyone was like hanging out and having a good time. Yikes I feel very yeah, I feel bad for him. I do I didn't I didn't think that I would I didn't think that I would But the music I think really All right, next up we have thoughts and prayers for Stan Lee who cares I don't I read comics who cares who cares who cares. Oh, who's actually like some some comedians. Oh, Mike, Francesca The sports pope in New York had an all-time clip. Let's actually put this in Eddie and Hoboken. What's up, Eddie?

Hey, what's up, Mike? What's how Mike Stan Lee died today? Did you ever meet the guy? What do you think of him Stan Lee? Yes, Stanley, I don't know who he is. Don't know who he is. No Jesus. Who is he? Who is he? Who is Stanley? He was one of the creators of Marvel Comics. Oh who cares? I mean, I'm sorry. I'm not a comic book guy. Is that what is that who he is Stanley the guy created spider-man That was a created spider-man. Sorry. I never was a comic book reader as a kid. I apologize never the Legend dies, but it's not a Yankee or JFK. So who cares who cares who cares who cares. I listen I

Didn't read comics when I was kid. I want to say played real sports. I I watched cartoons like The Simpsons Yeah, man, I read the paper Yeah, I got into my nails, okay No, I mean, I guess he was important to a lot of people. Yeah, I'm not me personally because I'm not a comic guy I said to you when he passed I was like was that the Superman guy and you're like, yeah And then someone from across the room was like, uh, no, it's a spider-man. I was just saying that to fuck with you Yeah, but it's still well. Yeah, two questions. One is that the Superman guy and I was like, yeah, definitely And then you go was he old I was like, no, he was like 50. It was sad 95. Yeah

Legend of the game. Mm-hmm.

No, no, not really You got a little incident I got to do with I when I went through my head I mean, I thought I might have to get stitches this morning I mean from the guy who got a fake fucking surgery. I don't think you need to get stitches. Well, I didn't get stitches Okay, I don't think I believe listen. I'm just gonna can you take my dick would have to be off for me to get stitches on Again, well because it's not ever gonna heal. So yeah, will no yes, it will when was the last time you went more than like a

So you're trying to tell me right now that you have permanently scarred your penis No, it'll over dramatic. I am I am being a little over I think you'll be okay. Yeah, but you know the penis is a is a wonderful instrument It will bounce back. It's a very resilient thing. It is so it is the world that the world's history is Written with penises that have bounced back. Absolutely. Yeah, so you'll be okay It's like a lizard's tail that just regenerates. Yeah, I'll get a new one. Yeah. Hope we'll go back bigger

Yeah, exactly Nathan Peterman also thoughts of purse. So we feel bad for him. We do No Nathan Peterman's like it was fun and I wish it was still going on But PFT brought up a good point before the show like he didn't make a lot of money. It was a fling It's not like Matt job who's got like millions Nathan Peterman. I don't know what he where he goes from here So here's the thing if Peterman was able to have like an extended career as a backup at this point I say let's keep the jokes flying But he's so toxic based on just like how he became he became a thing just like right came it kind of

I don't want to say he became a joke, but he was kind of a joke. Well, yeah Yeah, and it wasn't his fault because the way that he was tossed into it and it was a bad situation up in Buffalo And then he just shot the bed badly But if he didn't have like that aura to him, he could have a career as a backup Yeah for a while and then let's yeah, we can still have our fun But I do feel bad for the kids either go to the CFL or sue Shaw McDermott for malpractice. Yeah, that's well Those are his two options. Absolutely Sue. Um, you use me incorrectly You use me as a quarterback and I clearly am not one. Yeah, there's a name nothing Nathan Peterman joke

Sorry Hank, you use me in a manner inconsistent with my labeling. Yes, exactly. That's on you another Nathan Peterman joke Sorry, Peterman, you know what speaking of Stan Lee and Nathan Peterman would be that's a good name for a superhero Oh, it's superhero. It's like regular life. Yeah before they become the superhero they transform into a Huge dick with a big scar on I was gonna say I was gonna say a Matt Barkley That's that's the superhero version, but I want to read something to you guys real quick here. Okay. This is from John Gruden Okay, John Gruden actually wrote an article about Nathan Peterman back before the draft Well, I didn't read it. He just sat in a room with somebody that knows how to write and spoke at them Yep, and by the way, the name the name of this article is probably Hooters waitress is perfect

Five takeaways on Nathan Peterman. So he was able to do it before He'd John Gruden did it but not in a half. Hmm. So these are his five takeaways from Nathan Peterman One Nathan Peterman is the drafts most pro ready quarterback He's ready to walk in and be a contributor from day one. Well, he did contribute to the other team He did he just looks like a pro quarterback coming out of the huddle running an offense with different formations shifting Motioning different patterns that other colleges don't run. Mm-hmm He most importantly He will be able to get in the huddle from day one and look at ten grown men and tell them where to go and what to do and

Handle a versatile snap count. So my takeaway from this is How bad is Derek Carr? Because John Gruden can fall in love with any quarterback ever. Yeah, and he doesn't want Derek Carr But he could want Nathan Peterman. Oh, that's Nathan Peterman. That's open under the bright lights in Las Vegas Yeah, there we go. How about this one? The number three reason there are no red flags with Peterman He probably bores people because he doesn't have incredible measurables. He does not run for five and he's not six foot five He is just a consistent down-to-down performer. He is consistent. He was wrong on that. No, he's consistent

No, Nathan Peterman is the opposite of a bore He's been that's true fucking a lecture and also he does look like an NFL quarterback That's like that's that's the the basic mode that you get if you're creating a player Yes, and you enter quarterback as a position of Madden. It just looks like you're too lazy to even change like the hair color Yes, that's Nathan Peterman. Absolutely His maturity is an asset and he had a signature win because he beat Clemson. That was a signature. So yeah in retrospect I think he was you know what the problem was he was under drafted. He was drafted too late and it ruined his confidence Yeah, that's probably true. He should re-enter the draft. Yeah, John Gruden

John Gruden has five first-rounders to package to move up for Nathan Peterman All right, last up before we get to guys on chicks. Hugh boy. So Hugh Jackson's back in the league We all saw that coming. He is the assistant to the regional manager in Cincinnati So no one knows what that is Just know that if you are on the Cincinnati Bengals staff You're fucked because Hugh Jackson has brought in with like a very Suspect and vague title which basically means he's going to ingratiate himself with first Marvin Lewis Then the owner Mike Brown. Yeah, Mike Brown and then get everyone fired and so he can take the job

Yes, somehow he's gonna end up as the head coach of the Bengals or He's just brought in so that Marvin Lewis can fire him later Yeah, cuz Hugh is a very good person to bring in to blame things on because everybody will believe you if you say it's Hugh's fault. I needed Hugh Jackson to coach the Bengals. It'd be amazing He should just get to coach the two remaining games they have against the Browns. Yeah, he that is they just got all the secrets Do they play the Steelers anymore? I Think they have one more game against that'd be great if you got fired after you play the Steelers again Yes, that would be wonderful. That would be great. Now the problem is Hugh Jackson doesn't have any like he doesn't know Baker may feel

I don't even think he introduced himself to him, right? So that's gonna be tough to game plan. That's a good point. So Hugh is one of those jacks of all trades He's good at whatever he does. Yeah, so I don't know they just fired their defense coordinator But so it's Hugh gonna be taking over the offense while Marvin Lewis does the defense. I think so. I think he's a floater Yeah, he was one of those guys that doesn't have his own desk at work Spy or his own chair. Yeah, he just like goes around and annoys everybody Mm-hmm There's just gonna do a free range Hugh Jackson out in the practice field

He's free to go up and coach anybody up on whatever bullshit he wants He I could see Hugh the first day on the job like cracking open a beer at three o'clock be like it's five o'clock somewhere and Then handing everyone beers and then having Mike and then like taking a picture and being like look they were drinking on the job Yeah, fire. Yeah, well, so one question I did have I'm not sure how the math works in the NFL But if the Bengals tied or there are seven remaining games Would they technically like is five four and seven is that a good enough record to get into the playoffs? Yes Without checking. Yes, I'd like to see that's probably why they brought him in because they're like listen We're not gonna win too many more games, but we were in a situation like in soccer where if you just get a result

Yep, just get a result for the rest of your result in a way result and and you'll make the playoffs Yeah, all right Hank ready guys on checks. All right. We're gonna go speed round. All right. Yes talk fast It's like the end of the rising commercials. Mm-hmm What can you hear me now? Wow Hank you're going so fast. I can't keep up. I make out her nipple pierced She tried to take the piercing out to clean up But there was a string that was connected to it from her boob, so she for some reason cut the string turns out It was a nerve from her boob

Then she passed out Oh my god, okay next next next next fuck next. I didn't even know that was possible What I have to be careful about my nipple nerves now shout it to Larry one time Why do you guys like anal it hurts there might be poop is my vagina The answer the answer that some guys have small pieces so it's in the but it makes it feel like it's a lot bigger Yeah, some guys have scars on their penis that will never go away. What's your most effective talking technique? Tucking talking talking about sweat tucking into my waistband or up onto my belt. Yes waistband.

My friend recently received a text from a guy she matched with on tinder over a year ago Her and this guy never actually hung out and now he just randomly texted her a year later asking what she was up to Specifically what she's doing over teacher convention weekend So he remembered she was a teacher and that she would have off for a few days. Can you have us understand the thought process here? Yeah, he was super horny. Yeah, he hadn't like he's no no November He won't he just started going through all his contacts. I was like fuck shot to all the soldiers still fighting on November Yeah, well, I this was an interesting choice by you to like I Don't know how I can phrase this without being me
