Today is Wednesday, December 9th and the Washington football team has taken down the since aforementioned
no longer undefeated Pittsburgh Steelers.
It was an amazing night, big cat, it was magic.
Did I not call it?
Did I not call it?
It was late afternoon, Alex Smith was bleeding out of his tibia, he had a gash on his shin
the size of the Grand Canyon.
He really, when it comes to, because there was a game inside of a game, everyone knows
that the Washington football team was playing the Pittsburgh Steelers, but it was really
the game for comeback player of the year.
Oh yeah, the winner of that was...
Yeah, Alex Smith essentially dropped his nuts on the table because he was like, oh, Big Ben,
you have fake COVID and both your knees broke this year, but Tomlin said you were fine and
your shoulder hurts and all this.
How about just gushing blood from your shin?
Yeah.
Do that.
His shoe was so ridiculous looking.
It was my cause, my cleats for tibial menstruation.
It looked like a Jackson Pollock Panic.
I really did expect Big Ben to like old school WWE just get a razor blade at halftime and
give himself a nice cut across the forehand.
I mean, going into the game, Big Ben was listed as, I think it was probable, but the injury
report said non-injury related right knee.
Yes.
I have no...
Your guess is as good as mine.
I think we just means that like he caught a limp before the game at some point.
But yeah, I mean, listen, the Washington football team, do we control our own destiny?
No.
No.
No one controls our own destiny.
The Giants, too.
The Giants, too.
This concept.
Yep.
Did we blow them out?
No.
No.
Are they in first place?
Was it a comeback?
Yes.
Yeah, was it a comeback?
Absolutely.
Was it a comeback?
Sure.
Who cares?
Did our quarterback stop the clock by stealing the football and running away like a crazy
lady taking a baby from the hospital?
Who cares?
Yeah.
Allegedly, he did.
Not going to apologize for winning.
Washington football teams in first place tied technically, not in first place, but really,
they're in first place.
The point differential is what it's going to come down to, and not only that, but I have
receipts on everybody, including some of you on this podcast, who disparaged the NFC
beast.
You, you made fun of the NFC East as well.
You can claim parody law, but you made fun of them just as much as us.
The NFC beast is built different.
Yes.
We were the red-headed stepchild, and guess what?
Now we're the red-headed stepmom, and dad's out of town, and you're going to try to get
with us.
And listen, we might even get, you know what?
I said last night, we might get two teams in the playoffs.
Okay, that's not going to happen.
I crunched numbers.
We might get three teams in big gap.
Okay, that's not going to happen.
All we need, and by crunched numbers, I mean, I just, I went on the ESPN Playoff Machine
for like an hour until I got the equation right.
And if Tampa Bay ties the Vikings this week, then the Eagles could also get in.
So it, you did make fun of the NFC East just as much as us, and I don't think, I'm not
apologizing for making fun of the NFC East.
Wow.
It took you till week 13 to get two teams for five wins.
That's great.
The Bears did it in like week six.
No big deal.
What about the Bears 501 record?
Yeah.
Not apologizing.
In all honesty, I think that the NFC East jokes are gone in the fact that whether it
be the Washington football team, the New York Giants, both of those teams are good teams
that if they get in the playoffs, they could win a game.
So it's, it eliminates the mockery aspect of can you believe like, I think it really
just, I think what happened was everything just flipped on its head where everyone the
whole time was saying, oh my God, we're going to have to watch the Eagles and the Cowboys
in the playoffs.
Like one of these two teams is going to make it.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
Those teams suck.
The Washington football team and New York Giants are good teams that are playing well
in the most important month of the year.
And if they make the playoffs, I'll probably bet on them.
Yeah.
And listen, I'm circling the wagons with our division.
There's a lot.
I'm rooting for the division now.
But you did parody.
You did parody.
You made fun of the NFC East just as much as us.
And of course I got my jollies in when I could, but the reality is I'm actually totally rooting
for the Giants.
I want the Giants to win.
No, you're not.
Oh, yeah.
I want the Giants to win all their games.
I want them to go undefeated, run the table down the stretch.
I want the football team to also run the table.
And then we both get in.
Wale is on board too.
Wale was saying pretty much the same thing.
You don't want the Giants to win the Eagles.
You don't want the Giants to win every game.
I could give or take the Eagles.
You do not want the Giants.
I thought we were going for the three team situation.
No, you don't.
You don't want both the Giants and the football team to make the playoffs.
The only way that happens is if both teams win out for the rest of the season, there's
a good chance that they would both.
But that's insane.
It's very insane.
You want the Giants to lose.
It is fucking stupid.
You want the Giants to lose.
No, no, no, no.
You sound like one of these big ten guys, big cat.
You will not inset me into disavowing the entire division, the fire from which the
Washington football team has emerged, trial buffer, the iron that has sharpened the iron
of the football team.
So wait, so Week 17, they both win their next three games.
If the Washington football team wins, they're in.
If the Giants win, they're in.
You're rooting for the Giants to win?
Yes.
Week 17 against the Cowboys.
Absolutely.
You want them to win and kick the Washington football team out?
No, no, no.
Oh, you mean if it's like one or the other?
Yeah, which most likely will be.
Then of course I'm going to go with the football team.
Okay, yeah, yeah.
But that's what it's going to be.
No, but what I want to happen is you want...
Is five and five.
I get it.
You want two teams.
I get that.
You don't want the Giants to win.
Let's be honest.
The NFC East is track receto.
We only get going once the weather starts turning.
That's when it's NFC East weather.
Okay.
You don't want the Giants to win though.
I do.
You want the Washington football team to get in.
The best chance for them to get in is for the Giants to lose.
I want both of those things to happen.
But if we lose a game, yes, I'll be the biggest Giants hater in the world.
Don't get me wrong, but I'm saying this is all from a place that you wouldn't know.
You don't root for the NFC East.
You don't know what it means in that division.
I mean, I've been the biggest Giants supporter ever.
It goes back and forth.
In the media.
Yeah, laughed out of this room for calling them a good team three weeks ago by you and
Hank.
Still haven't had an apology.
I mean, it's still true.
What?
They're not a good team.
So what's the Washington football team?
Under 500 team.
Not good.
Hank's always going to hate on the Giants.
Hey, Hank, sorry about those two Super Bowls.
So wait, you think they both suck?
Yeah.
No, they don't both suck.
Yes.
That front seven that the football team has are that is elite elite.
I said it capital E, capital I, capital E, capital T, elite.
If you weren't our word, whatever the fuck, no names, fan, we're a football team.
We would not be talking about this.
No, that's true, because they're trash.
No, they're not.
Should we talk about Josh Allen, who was awesome?
He's not trash.
He was awesome.
I love that game.
Josh Allen looked so good.
The Bills now they feel like a team that is also like their defense is starting to round
into form.
Shout out, Nick Mullins, who is one of the greatest garbage time quarterbacks for all
time.
Like that drive at the end of the game.
Did you see that stat?
The fastest or the most yards in their first 12 games in the NFL?
It was Mahomes, Andrew Luck and Nick Mullins.
Holy shit.
That's one, two, three.
That's amazing.
Because at the end of games, he is just racking up yards.
Yeah.
The best two-minute offense down 14 or 17 with a minute and 10 seconds left.
Ever.
Ever.
And you know what the weird thing is?
I could also see the 49ers coming back and winning like three out of their next four
games.
Well, that would...
They could always surprise.
Three out of their next four.
We're going back to watching football.
Three out of their next four.
What's the one?
What's the one?
No, but I'm saying that the 49ers, I don't think that they're a bad team, which means
that this win by the Buffalo Bills was even that more impressive.
Yeah, no.
Aaron played his nuts off and what I really love, I don't think that there's a combination
of quarterback to wide receiver that I enjoy watching more in the NFL than Josh Allen to
Cole Beasley.
Yeah.
Because when Cole Beasley, when his little body catches a Josh Allen pass, it knocks
him back like five yards.
He gets knocked into the end zone on a regular basis by the velocity of Josh Allen's pass.
It's actually a good...
It's like, it would be Tyree Killen in Patrick Mahomes, DK in Russell Wilson, Josh Allen
and Cole Beasley.
And then what that's, I'm being honest, maybe Stefan Diggs down there.
No, I'm just saying like the...
No, I know.
The most fun to watch.
Yeah.
The visual comedy.
No, I'm saying the most fun to watch.
These are the most fun to watch.
And then I'm trying to think of what's the least fun to watch of any receiver quarterback
combination.
Let's see.
I would probably go with Ben D'Nucci and anyone.
Yeah.
I would probably Mitch Trebisky and Cole Comet.
No, because Mitch can fire in there.
That's fun, actually.
Mike Glennon and whoever plays a receiver on the Jaguars.
Yeah, the fourth receiver on the Jaguars.
Not DJ Chark.
Yeah, that would be up there.
LaViscus Chinalt.
LaViscus Chinalt's okay.
I like him.
Yeah.
Colorado.
Shout out to Colorado.
Shout out to the Buffaloes.
Drew Locke and trying to throw it to anyone.
James Winston and any linebacker.
Did you mention the short king stat, PFT?
So yeah, what was that short king stat?
It was like he's the first to...
He scored his 33rd career touchdown, the most ever by a player, 5-8 or shorter.
We love it.
We love to see it.
That's a lot of touchdowns.
Damn.
Stefan Diggs also is a stud.
But yeah, the bills were awesome.
And then when we had so much football, finally week 13 has ended.
We're actually watching the fourth quarter right now.
The Cowboys, the Ravens bounce back.
I kind of felt like this was going to happen.
Yeah.
The Cowboys are bad.
It's out of watermelon season now.
You can't get them in stores.
Yeah.
The magic was going to wear off a little bit.
And now the Ravens are heading for a Monday night football game against the Browns next
week where if you're the Ravens and you win that game, you now feels like you got your
mojo back.
A little bit, yeah.
But they haven't...
Because it's Monday night against the Browns.
They haven't looked...
Why?
Why?
...why Teller might be out.
They're winning right now.
It's about to be 27 to 17 or 27 to 13.
And they haven't really looked dominant ever.
Yeah.
The wins or wins.
The Cowboys defense.
Weird schedule.
They stink.
Booger at one point.
I like this.
I don't really know what it means.
But Booger tweeted out, rough, rough night for Vandoresh.
His eyes are so nosy.
Mmm.
Dirty eyes.
He's got, well, smelly eyes.
No.
What's the...
He got bigged out on the Mar-Jackson's touchdown.
Yeah.
Big time.
Yeah.
He ran his own personal.
Greg Williams covers zero on that play up the middle.
Oh yeah.
Greg Williams got fired too.
Yeah.
Which was to be expected.
Dr. He...
Eyes are so nosy.
I would want to linebacker whose nose is hungry like Lawrence Taylor.
Very hungry nose.
Yes.
Yes.
All right.
So that's NFL week 13.
Anything else?
Any other thoughts we got to get out there?
I mean, you're right.
RIP Dr. Heet.
Dr. Heet.
He'll find his way somewhere.
He will.
Someone will get addicted to the heat.
He will now.
We're rooting for obviously the Jets to go on 16 because if you're a Jets fan, you want
Trevor Lawrence, but also Dr. Heet being part of two of the three all-time 0 and 16 teams
is a quite a stat.
That's a great thing.
I really love for him to have.
What about this?
What about our friend, Jeff Fisher, reuniting with his own defensive coordinator?
I want him to get the Vanderbilt job.
Yeah.
Also, Dr. Heet, remember, Dr. Heet will be fine because according to Dr. Heet, he had
so many head coaching offers last time that there were actually teams that told him just
show up.
You don't even have to interview.
Just sign the paper and you'll be a head coach.
Come on in, Dr. Heet.
Most delusional guy in the world.
You know, you're always on the lookout for Pete Carroll's twin.
It's like you're Mr. Heet.
Trevor gets that with Russell Wilson confirmed.
Yeah.
I've been Mandela affected into thinking that Greg Williams had a fupa.
Greg Williams, I know for a fact he at one point had a fupa.
But we can't find it.
No.
I've done a lot of research on Getty Images.
A lot.
Shutterstock.
Yeah.
And you can't find it.
Wait.
What?
I can't?
When I came into work yesterday, I was checking up on when I left.
I was the last person in the office still just scrolling through Getty Images.
Yeah.
I did.
I found some.
So the Fupa era for Greg Williams.
The baby fupa that was kind of enhanced by his man boobs at the time.
A boopa?
It was a boopa.
When he was on the Saints, he had.
He's a little chunky.
He got addicted to wearing those giant front khakis with the big pleats like Phil Mickelson
used to wear in the mid 90s.
Mm-hmm.
He looked like.
They're like MC Hammer pants.
Yeah.
Like he was getting drafted in 2001.
Yeah.
And his fupa, it existed, but it was exacerbated by the pants.
So do you have a picture of it or not?
I've got several pictures on my computer.
You want me to pull it up?
Yeah.
I'll pull them up.
The thing is, okay, here they are.
Here's a good one.
There's one when he's on the R words.
See, that's a little fupa.
Yeah.
He's got a little pooch right there.
Mm-hmm.
A boopa.
And here's the pants in question.
These pants.
I saw them.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I like those.
Mission accomplished.
There we go.
Oh, also.
A day well spent.
Yeah.
What?
Two days.
Carson Wentz.
No longer.
Oh, yeah.
We can get to that later.
Well, yeah, you just stole my cool thrones.
We talked about it before.
Roger Goodell's king sauce for letting this game happen.
It doesn't care about player safety.
Oh, you think now he doesn't care about player safety?
What made you think that?
It's true, but he...
I mean, he's just trying to keep it.
He doesn't care about...
There's nothing that Roger Goodell cares less about than player safety.
It's true.
I'm trying to think what the decision-making process was before the game.
Des Bryant tested positive while on the field in warm-ups.
He was hugging people.
He was shaking hands with his former coaches.
He was, I guess, around his team, but they did contact tracing, and I guess they wear
some sort of device that tells you how close you were to somebody.
Right.
And so they said no one else on the Raven spent enough time close to him, which is Des
Bryant a bad teammate.
It's a lie, too.
Yeah.
Probably just a lie.
Yeah.
My theory was that Jerry Jones, just because he is the shadow commissioner, called up Roger
Goodell and was like, I don't want Des to play against me.
Well, it also, I mean, we learned it on Sunday when there was, what, seven false positives
on the chiefs.
The hypothetical that always gets thrown out there is people, whenever there's a test,
they're like, well, what if it was Patrick Mahomes in prime time?
Well, we found out.
If it's Patrick Mahomes in prime time, they will play the game.
What if it was all the Ravens wide receivers, kind of like it was the Broncos in their
entire quarterback room?
I don't think they would change what they do pretty much at all because none of them
can catch anyway.
That's very true.
Yeah.
It's, they're not a great bunch.
All right.
You want to do college football.
So Ohio State, Michigan has opted out of the game, the big game, good.
Everyone got their Jim Harbaugh jokes off.
That was like one of those moments where if you weren't on Twitter, the moment the game
canceled, don't even try to make your Jim Harbaugh joke because they all got made.
And now Ohio State is sitting there currently ineligible for the big 10 championship game.
Don't know if they'll be able to schedule another game this weekend.
There's word from Suryat that maybe texts A&M's out there.
Good enough for me.
I got into Twitter arguments with idiot fans for the whole day because they don't realize
that we should change the rules for Ohio State to prop them up because stop thinking like
small brains.
Essentially.
No, that's correct.
That's exactly right.
It's like these people must be stupefied by the fact that rich people can afford better
tax lawyers and attractive women get out of speeding tickets.
Yes.
These are facts of life.
If you're Ohio State and you carry the big 10, you carry the big 10 rules are going
to be changed for you.
They change.
These aren't like this isn't the Bible.
These aren't the 10 commandments that were written down in stone tablets 2000 years ago
or longer ago.
Jake, what how old was Moses in the tablets?
He so so here's here's my biggest point is so the the big 10 is so at least some fans
of the big 10 are so antiquated with like reality.
They don't they have no perception of reality.
They're not in touch with reality.
They think that the rest of the big 10 is on the same playing field as Ohio State.
They are not.
I root for a big 10 team.
They are not.
Ohio State is playing a different sport and on a different level.
Same with Alabama.
Same with Clemson.
Those three teams are playing on a different level than everyone else.
That's a reality of college football.
There's nothing you can do about it.
They're an absolute monster death star.
They're going to keep on rolling and keep on kicking ass.
You have one of two two ways to look at it.
It's let's keep Ohio State out and hurt them and hurt the rest of the big 10 hoping that
if we drag them back to the rest of the big 10 we can compete better.
That's a loser thinking that is absolute loser thinking or you could say hey Ohio State going
to the college football playoff is good for the perception of the big 10.
It's six million dollars to the conference that gets dispersed evenly.
We should focus on getting our team better instead of trying to drag Ohio State back down.
And guess what the good conferences do.
The SEC props up their winners.
The ACC two weeks ago did exactly this.
They literally fucked over Miami and canceled Notre Dame's last game and put them in the
championship game because they said guess what we have a chance to get Clemson and Notre
Dame into the college football playoff.
They're going to put them in the championship game hope Clemson wins a narrow win and both
those teams go and we get 12 million dollars to our conference.
And then everyone says well OK six million dollars.
What the fuck does that buy.
That buys nothing.
That's you.
You disperse it.
It's 500,000.
Go read this article.
I've mentioned it a couple of times before but if you want to be the Pac 12 and you want
to be resigned to being a fucking afterthought for the college football playoff and in like
the national landscape of college football like the Pac 12 is right now.
Go read this article.
I've mentioned before on Oregon Live from like 2018.
John Canzano wrote it about Larry Scott and his ridiculous spending and how stupid he
has been and putting like the Pac 12 offices in San Francisco and the rent is insane whereas
the SEC's office is literally in like a dentist's office in Birmingham, Alabama.
So in this article they actually had to wait.
That can't be right.
Yeah.
Dentist saw it.
No it's not.
Birmingham.
It's like a two.
Probably.
Yeah.
Liposuction.
Yeah.
Right.
Right.
Well they call it a dentist.
You just go and get Greg.
Thank you.
It's a guy with the biggest hammer in the state.
Yeah.
So in this article they actually broke it down and I'm reading it from this article.
It says David Bartu who's a managing partner of Matrix Analytical Solutions consults with
some of the top football programs in the country.
When asked of handing each member university even another $500,000 annually would make a
significant difference.
He offered a sobering thought saying it could be the difference between your program getting
a top offensive or defensive coordinator and missing out.
Can you buy an extra strength and conditioning coach?
Can you buy better nutrition?
How about a better weight room?
Every fucking dollar matters especially in COVID.
So shut up, prop up Ohio State, realize that you're never going to be them and make the
big 10, get into the conference and I'm not rooting for Ohio State.
There's a big difference.
People are like well you're like doing the SEC thing.
I'm not.
I've never worked for another team in my time to do this.
I want the big 10 to have more money.
I want the big 10 to be better at football across the board.
And that makes Ohio State lifts us up.
It makes total sense.
And it's crazy that you have to say it.
The only fan base that I could see not liking this decision would be Michigan just because
you don't want to see Ohio State succeed at all.
Well Indiana has a little bit of it, like a tiny little bit argument because right now
under the rules they would make it a big picture.
But Ohio State beat that.
Beat that.
So I don't think so.
At least again it's like you don't want to see them succeed ever.
No matter.
You will take pain for yourself if it means that the people in Ohio and Columbus don't
get any pleasure whatsoever.
What I don't understand, what I've been trying to figure out all day is why Nebraska is so
mad about this.
And the only reason is that I can figure out that Nebraska's mad because they invented
college football this off season.
And they wanted to play games out of conference and were told that they weren't allowed to.
So they're like hey we didn't get this so why is Ohio State getting it?
And it's like give me a fucking break.
Nebraska is going to be like we're going to leave the Big Ten because we're not treating
them.
They have nowhere to go.
That's like West Boreland quitting Limp Bizkit.
And he's like this band is about me and I can succeed on my own.
I saw that argument.
Oh the other teams were mutiny.
West Boreland won.
No, no, not that one.
But the other teams were mutiny.
Okay go mutiny.
You're not going anywhere.
Nebraska tried and the Big Ten slapped them in the face and said hey get in line.
Nebraska's argument at least makes a little bit of sense on a just purely like fair.
Like it's basically like a toddler being like hey this isn't fair.
We got this taken away and then you give it to Big Brother.
That's not fair.
You are right on that.
It is not fair.
Life is not fair.
You're not Ohio State.
Ohio State pays your bills.
Helps pay your bills.
If the situations were different and you were going to the college football playoff every
couple of years, you would get preferential treatment and I have no problem with that.
And again, this is coming from a guy who hates Ohio State.
So like you should listen.
I hate Ohio State.
But I know what's better for Wisconsin is for Ohio State to get the money, disperse it,
and have a team in the college football playoff and not fall behind like the Pact 21.
Did you over just hit?
Yes it did.
Love it.
Thank you.
I'm a genius.
There it is.
Missed all my bets.
Although they threw a flag.
They threw a flag.
That was my rant.
I get passionate about it.
I love college football so, so much.
I saw somebody pull up a map.
I don't have the tweet in front of me, but it shows exactly in between College Station
in Columbus, Ohio, Memphis.
Done.
Play it in the fucking, the giant pyramid.
That's also a Bass Pro shop.
Yes.
Played it.
That game would be so awesome.
I really, we said this on Sunday, but the flexible scheduling should come to college football
where every team should leave like an open date at the end of the season where you can
say, hey, we're on the outside looking in like Texas A&M needs some help.
Do you know what help would get them in?
Beating Ohio State.
Like they would, if they beat Ohio State, the only thing that would keep them out is
Florida beating Alabama and Clemson beating Notre Dame and they did the committee decides
those four.
But even if that happened, I don't think.
Wait, so if Florida beats Alabama, college and A&M beats Ohio State, what happens in
the SEC?
You think it's going to be, it's going to be Florida and out.
They'll keep Alabama in.
Like if Florida beats Alabama in the SEC championship game, they'll find a way to get Florida and
Alabama in and the same thing in the ACC.
That's kind of what I'm rooting for, just to see all the people in college station flip
out.
Yeah, it would suck.
Dude, perfect.
But then again, they got smoked by.
They sniped the commissioner of the college football playoff from like five miles away.
And they would have a legit gripe because they did beat Florida.
So they would have a totally legit, they also got killed by Alabama.
But this is, I mean, college football is fun.
I love debating college football.
It's fun to talk about.
I just want big 10 fans.
If you root for a big 10 team, stop having a small rinky dink brain and start thinking
big picture.
Agreed.
That's it.
You're the, you're the big 10.
You're supposed to be the smart guy.
I'll be the fucking commissioner.
And Kevin, and Kevin, and that's, that's actually not a big 10 way to go about things.
Big 10, like Michigan men, you're supposed to be like these institutions of higher learning
right and logic and reason comes first.
You're thinking like the most logical person on earth.
Right.
You're, what you're doing, if you're a fan of one of these schools, trying to not let
Ohio State play this game.
That's SEC mentality.
Well, yeah.
Well, the SEC would just cancel this like the rest of the season and put Ohio State
in no matter what.
Yeah.
Like ACC, the, the ACC literally, and people will say, well, don't make rules in the first
place.
If you're going to change them, the ACC just did that.
They knew what to do because there are smart conferences trying to get more money.
Right.
These aren't rules that every, like Kevin Warren sat down in early October and said, I think
these are going to be the rules this year.
Yeah.
It's not the Bible.
And he's an idiot.
He deserves all the blame.
We're only in this spot because he decided to cancel the season and then restart the
season with no bye weeks and hope it went well, which guess what?
It was never going to go well.
So he gets all the blame.
I totally agree there.
But God damn it.
Everyone, everyone fucking figure it out.
Um, all right.
So that overdid officially hit, right?
I don't, we just get put in charge of everything.
I agree.
I, oh, this is, this will be the platform I run for Mac, Mac commissioner in like 10
years.
I'll be like, remember my thoughts on propping up Ohio State.
I will make a super Mac team and we will put all the best talent into one school, we'll
rotate the school and that school will go to the college football playoff.
I like it.
And then guess what?
$6 million to the Mac is literally like you can buy a whole new school.
Like that's incredible.
Yeah.
You develop a pyramid scheme.
Yes.
Yes.
If you want to start a school in Manchester, Ohio, get every good player and put them
on one team and then we'll pull out of a hat.
We'll actually do it like, uh, the FIFA ping pong balls will do.
I have a ping pong ball machine that part, the hard part's done.
Oh, every year we'll pull it out and be like, all right, ball state, you get all the good
players.
It's everyone transfer ladder for the last 35 years and he's still uninvited.
So I think it could work in rural America.
All right.
Uh, let's do hot.
Which I love.
Yes.
Let's do hot seat, cool throne, hot seat, cool throne.
Uh, before we do that Chevy, the strongest, most advanced Silverado ever, the strongest,
advanced Silverado ever Silverado, strong, advanced, dependable, hardworking Silverado
is dependable like the people who drive them.
The design is big, bold and commanding this truck turns heads.
It's a partner with grit and determination, anything is possible and Silverado is a partner
in that tailgating, hauling new big screen TV couch to watch the game, tailgate equipment,
whatever it may be, off-roading, moving day, helping out your friend or family member,
road trips, do it all with the Chevy Silverado.
We love the Chevy Silverado.
I drove one a couple of weeks ago.
It was awesome.
I wish I had a Chevy Silverado.
If the Vikings didn't screw me over, I'd still be alive for a Chevy Silverado.
Chevy Silverado, strong, advanced, dependable, hardworking, the best truck out there.
Thank you to our friends at Chevy, Chevy Silverado, do it, do it, do it, strongest, most advanced
Silverado ever.
Hank.
Oh, my hot seat is Duke.
Oh.
Wait, I got a joke, Duke.
That's a funny joke.
My blue devils last two weeks, lost Michigan State, lost Illinois.
I don't even know.
What was the team they were playing, Jake?
That it was their first Division I game ever.
Bellarmine.
Bellarmine.
They followed me on Twitter.
They have like 800 followers, their team account.
It was their first D1 game ever.
Shout out to the Bellarmine Knights out of Louisville, Kentucky.
And Duke was only half.
Bellarmine is Duke.
It was like a point game at half.
Yeah, Duke was only half.
They're the Dixie State of the East, right?
Yeah, Bellarmine, Dixie State and Tarleton State are all new teams.
I have to take excuses from my other sports, but I'm just going to say, you know, they
lost Michigan State and Illinois at home.
No, no, no, no home field advantage.
There was no, no came crazy.
So you just got out.
You got to wonder how much of a difference that is.
Yeah.
So wait, did Coach K, at least go into Bellarmine's locker room after the game and teach them
important life lessons?
I don't know.
I'm just talking about the home games.
Since it was the first D1 game ever, that was probably the first game they ever had
to spread.
Because I don't think D2 games have spread.
So the winning at most, most covering team of all time.
Most covering team.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Listen to Binchmob.
But yeah, Duke thinks.
You guys gave him that pick ahead of time, right?
I didn't give that pick.
Jake, I mean, I got to be honest.
God damn it, Jake.
Come on.
By the way, before the game tonight, we were watching the pregame on Fox here and Joe Buck
and Troy Ackman popped on the TV and Jake was like, is Joe Buck going to do three games
in five days?
Oh my God.
And then his eyes lit up.
They got wide.
And I was like, no, wait.
Oh my God.
It's four games in a week.
That's really cool.
It is cool.
It is like 16 games in October.
Jake is very cool.
No, I know.
But football specifically is much tougher to prep for.
So the fact that he's doing Tuesday and Thursday is actually very cool.
Why do we keep talking about Joe Buck?
Troy Ackman is like, dude, he can't, he can't do this many games.
He's the real warrior.
Well, let's be honest, Jake, the color guys don't have to prep.
They don't.
They're not.
They're just, yeah, they're there.
Yeah.
Well, Troy Ackman doesn't.
He doesn't have to study for Cowboys games.
He can do those with his eyes closed.
That's true.
That's true.
I'm jealous of that workload.
That's awesome.
He's jealous of that load.
Okay.
And then my cool.
My cool throne is alien.
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, we moved off Duke too fast.
Do you think Coach K, this could be the end?
Like he, he doesn't have a team that's, you know, are they going to make this a tournament?
Okay.
So I would not say for every team in the tournament, I would not be surprised at all if after like
a month and a few more bad losses, Coach K pulled his team from the season because this
was bigger than sports.
Yep.
You want to make sure that these kids stay healthy, which they're put on a full for us
right now.
Full disclosure.
If they win this game, we're going to move all of this from the situation, take all this
off the record.
If you actually believed in it, but once he gets a little losing streak going, he is definitely
liable to be like, listen, we're not going to go through the motions.
The most important thing is keeping these kids healthy.
He might do, he might double it.
He might be like, we got to keep them healthy.
And also there's a lot of social justice issues out there that they got to focus on.
He might double down.
He will be waving a lot of flags.
Coach K could absolutely do that.
Okay.
Wait, I move on.
I'm just going to relish in this for a second.
All right.
I mean, you, you admit it's, it's no fans like Cameron Endor, it looks really strange without
any fans at all.
There's just a massive space behind the basket.
Like, like if you're, if you're, if you're these teams, you don't feel like they're
real wins.
Uh, I would say if you're a fan of these teams, they absolutely will feel like this is a real
win.
I don't know.
But they actually are struggling with this press.
So we might have just jinxed the fuck out of them.
I hope so.
I have them.
So I hope not.
My cool throwing is aliens.
Okay.
Do you guys see this?
Yes.
Uh, the head of Israel's space security program for 30 years said he did an interview.
It's 87 years old.
I'll keep that, uh, take it with a grain salt, but he said there is agreements made between
aliens in the U S, which obstinately have been made because they wish to research and
understand the fabric of the universe.
They're cooperating with a secret underground base on Mars and Alienware where they're in
a representative soft to read alien, obstinately, ostensibly, ostensibly, ostensibly, ostensibly.
It's a tough one.
Obdentacious.
So yeah, aliens are aliens.
Apparently the aliens have been here.
We're in cahoots with them.
There's an underground lab on Mars.
So that's just what is exciting.
It's a federation, right?
The universal federation galactic galactic federation.
What about what?
How do we know that there's an existence of a galactic federation?
How do we know that there's underground shit on Mars if we've never been there?
Uh, because this guy is the head of security and he said so for Israel.
Yeah.
Israel's space security.
So that's just like, you know, all of space, basically.
Right.
Yes.
He's in charge of all.
We don't know that he hasn't been there.
He's highly academically decorated.
He's like not a kook.
So, okay.
So it's kind of a little concerning and that's why everyone's saying it's serious.
No, I think that's great.
If he's telling the truth, that's probably the best news that we've ever gotten.
Yeah.
Like knowing that there are aliens here and we've been able to just chill with them forever.
That's why the stock market went up.
Yeah, that's great.
Oh, is that why?
Aliens.
Aliens buy stocks.
All right.
More land.
More real estate.
It's not stocks.
But it's, it's, it's all, it's all, it's all one song.
It's all one song.
It's all one song.
It was the universal economy.
Got it.
Makes sense.
My hot seat is gym memberships.
Gym memberships officially endangered because your boy just got a home gym.
I saw a home gym system.
The Iron Dungeon is what I'm calling it.
I got one barbell, but it's the adjustable barbell.
Or dumbbell.
So you can, I think it goes from like 10 pounds to 70 pounds.
Yup.
I didn't realize how heavy it was going to be, how heavy, how heavy weights are until
they're shipped to you.
And then you have to take that box upstairs and you're like, what the hell is in here?
My dumb brain thought it would be a lot lighter than that.
Right.
I don't know how that works.
You thought it'd be like 10 pounds.
Yeah.
I thought it'd be like 10 pounds.
And then it becomes.
Yeah.
I don't know.
I didn't really think that through.
I actually kind of agree with you.
Yeah.
You don't expect a box to be that heavy.
Yeah.
That's, that's false advertising.
Yeah.
I thought it would be like 10 pounds.
And at that point I realized I'd only purchased one.
So I have one dumbbell.
One is all you need.
I thought, I thought I had two, but I'm just going to try to ride it out with it.
I think I can get, I think I can get shredded off one dumbbell.
Yeah.
I don't think you need an entire gym for that.
I think all you need is a Peloton and Billy's laughing at me.
Billy, you don't know a shit about working out.
You can't, you can't even bench press 285 pounds.
You should see how, how jacked one side of your body can be.
That's what I was thinking.
Yeah.
Just work out my right arm.
No, your right arm and right leg.
Squats and yeah.
And shoulder raises.
That would probably be really bad for my back.
It's very funny to be lopsided.
I did get a workout in this morning and I was like, this is fine.
I can do this.
I'm like laying back on my bench, just doing one arm at a time.
This might be, this is telling on myself, but are gyms closed?
No.
Okay.
But I know that my gym is probably about to close.
Yeah.
I haven't, I haven't had gym membership for a long, I don't like the concept of going
to a gym and working out wearing a mask.
Yeah.
I need to breathe free.
Yeah.
It's restricting.
It's very restricting.
So I just choose not to go.
I don't want to choke to death.
That's why I haven't worked out in six months.
It legit sucks.
Yeah.
I did it.
Billy, you work out in your barn.
No, I was working out at a gym with my buddy and we had to wear masks and it sucks.
Okay.
So I don't want to do any of that.
But I do have my home gym now.
So if anybody has any suggestions of ways to get absolutely shredded for this, this
upcoming summer, which is going to be a blowout by the way.
Oh yeah.
As a 27 year old.
I'm in the prime of my life.
It's the last summer of your 20s.
It's the last summer and then I get to enter the real world as an adult.
My cool throne is William Shakespeare.
Yes.
Silly.
Also kind of a stay woke.
So William Shakespeare, he's this old dude, he's like 87 years old in England.
He was the first person in line to get the COVID vaccine in England, had pictures taken
of him.
They got put everywhere on the news.
Stay woke.
This man was put in line first intentionally.
Yeah.
No doubt about it.
First of all, they wanted to spread the news that they were doing the vaccine.
Second of all, it was the lottery for any news organization in terms of quote tweets
today.
Like William Shakespeare quote tweet, Taming of the flu.
There was all sorts of like very hacky jokes that were being made.
I bit my lip did not make one.
I'd like credit you also credit to Hank for fooling the entire Internet.
Oh my God.
How stupid?
Like, I mean, you're, I'm going to say this, I'm not, I'm not dumb, but you're not that
dumb.
I'm not the smartest piece of dough on the cookie, cookie plate, but, but I'm smarter
than that.
I'm smarter than that.
You are.
You are way smarter than that.
The fact that people like, so again, you're not smart, but you are way smarter than that.
What Hank said, it was a quote tweet and Hank was like, man, this is crazy.
First I learned that Pablo Picasso died in like the 1960s and now I learned William Shakespeare
was born in the 1900s.
That's wild.
Yeah.
And everybody thought that Hank was dumb.
It was like, you got to discuss this.
The New York Post might just rerun this story all week just to get the maximum amount of
quote tweets out of it.
Just only famous people getting only famous names getting the vaccine.
I will say if you, if you put the two pictures up next to each other, they look alike.
Yeah.
True.
So it looks like a British guy.
Today I learned that he was married to Anne Hathaway.
Oh.
Yeah.
Which is, Anne Hathaway was named after Anne Hathaway.
Nice.
They're both vampires.
Or they're both vampires.
Like Nick Cage.
Yes.
Nick Cage is a vampire.
All right.
My hot seat is Louisville head coach, Scott Satterfield.
I don't know if you guys saw this, but all time, foot in the mouth, like tour.
He had like three days straight of this.
So the backstory is he's a Louisville head coach.
He's been there for a year and a half.
He's from, I think, North Carolina, South Carolina job opens.
He interviews for it on Friday, doesn't get it, then has to come back and be like, whoops,
didn't get it.
Sorry, everyone.
I love Louisville.
And then he did an oppressed conference where he basically said, he was like, listen, I
love Louisville.
I love everyone here, but if North Carolina and North Carolina state come calling, I will
also take those interviews.
And then on top of all of that, he did an interview where he was asked, like, what's
the deal?
Why do you think, like, so the question was the argument has been made that Louisville
may be a better job than South Carolina that I don't know who's making that argument.
That obviously depends on who you ask and where they live.
But what about Louisville made you want to stay, which let's be honest, he didn't want
to stay.
He just didn't get the job.
He said, he said, uh, with Louisville and the support we have, the outstanding fans,
the airport is three minutes away.
There's a lot of positives you can see here.
You're going to make fun of the airport thing, but to me, that is, that's a big bonus.
No, it is.
That's the biggest.
But it's not great to be like, I love this city so much.
The best part about it is I can get out of here really quickly.
That's true.
Like, not a bad, yeah, not a bad way to look at it.
And if you're a Louisville fan, you're longing for the days of having a coach that is good
at lying.
That's like, you miss Bobby Petrino.
You miss, you miss Rick Petrino.
You miss the entire stable that they used to have that were slick enough to get away
with stuff.
Yeah.
This Satterfield guy sounds like a real, real bonehead.
It's like saying, like, oh, I love Philly.
The best part about Philly is it's only an hour of train to New York.
Like, okay, so you don't love Louisville.
You just want to get on a plane.
And then on top of all of that, this guy was, he was one, the one thing that he missed in
saying the stuff that he loved about Louisville is being like, it's great city.
It's got all four seasons.
Yes.
That's what you say about a town that you fucking hate and you can't think of a way to spin
zone your way into like, oh, this is why I'm justified saying, or you're like, it's
got some winter.
Yes.
This guy went from interviewing for a job on Friday to basically making it so that no
one will ever hire him again.
Like he has to stay in Louisville.
Yeah.
As you blow up the airport and make him stay there.
So because on top of all of that, he also said he was trying to make the argument that
it's harder for coaches than players.
He says, uh, as players, it's a little bit different than coaches.
Sometimes you like to lump coaches in with players as a player, you're there for three
to four years and then you're done as players.
You don't have a family, which what?
Yeah.
Yeah.
They do.
They almost all of them have families.
Some of them have kids.
Yeah.
It's just you as coaches.
And I'm just thinking in general terms here, coaches have wives and kids as a job.
Are they going to be a job at 40 years?
There are a lot of different things that are involved in coaching with players.
Like I said, it's three to four years and they have to be all in as opposed to South
Carolina where everyone's just single going to club metal all the time and fucking each
other.
You get paid billions of dollars.
I think you can, you can be okay with that being your job and college kids who are exceptional
athletes because that's why they're there getting, uh, to be there for four.
It's actually four or five years, but also like players have families, they move from
their families to play for you.
Actually, the recruitment that you should be doing is when your kid comes here, I'm
like a second dad to him.
What this tells me is that Papa John does not like this guy at all because if you're,
if you're the head coach of Louisville football and Papa John likes you, you are very comfortable.
Yes.
You never want to.
In fact, Papa John probably has a contract out on you if you ever leave Louisville.
Yes.
So I think Papa John has the fact that he's not paying close enough attention to this
guy tells me that, uh, that he's not in the good graces of the boosters.
Unreal, unreal, like three days stretch for him where he just basically torpedoed everything
with those press conferences.
Uh, and then my cool throwing is Carson Wentz and I know that sounds kind of counterintuitive,
but I actually think Carson Wentz getting bench was the greatest thing that's ever
happened to Carson Wentz.
He's going to get paid to not play football.
And he's really bad.
Yes.
So now he doesn't have to be really bad every week.
I'm sure he dreaded playing football.
Yeah.
He doesn't have to be exposed to those loud noises anymore.
If I'm actually, let me pose this to you, hypothetical question.
If Jeffrey Lurie asked you, if he said, big cat, I will pay you $20 million to kidnap
Carson Wentz.
Would you do it?
So we're like talking like Celtic pride here.
Yeah.
Kidnap him.
Just get him off the books for a while.
Yeah.
I'd do it for 20 cash.
20 million cash.
You probably have to, you yourself would probably have to go off the grid.
It would be like a, uh, like an alpha dog scenario.
Remember that movie?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Ended really well.
Yeah.
He would smoke weed for, I don't know, 13, 14 months until he gets declared legally dead
after he's been missing for a while.
I'm in.
And then you bring him back.
Jeffrey Lurie doesn't have to pay him.
I would assume I'm in at the very least he would pay Carson Wentz's family.
The cap hit wouldn't be incurred at that point.
I love it.
I love this idea.
I'm in.
Let's, let's do it.
Jeffrey Lurie, we are at your disposal and I feel like Carson Wentz would be a good
dude to chill with just out in nature for a while.
He's probably a good survivalist.
Right.
From the Dakotas.
He could shingle the house with ducks.
You would never go hungry.
Yes.
I like that.
All right, Billy, you got a hot seat cool throne.
Um, hot seat, coconut oil, cool throne, uh, Alex Smith's leg.
It was bleeding and he was able to run around on it.
Oh, that's crazy.
I can't believe it.
I don't know.
I was going to do cool throne aliens and you just randomly came up with coconut oil.
Yeah.
Billy thinks about like four things.
He thinks about steroids, cod, cod, working out mega, I think there's more to it.
And then he's not explaining any substance that has ever touched us and he get rich and
he get rich quick scheme that doesn't involve the easiest get rich quick scheme by fighting
in rough and rowdy.
Uh, I mean, it's literally the whatever Billy's really just spends all this time like you
would wear the way to make $20,000 quick.
You would wear coconut oil during rough and rowdy.
You get all lubed up.
Jake, do you have one real quick?
Yeah.
I want to talk to Billy though about like the gash that was on Winch's leg because I forgot
to ask this early.
Did they ever say that they stitched him up?
Alex Smith's leg.
Yeah.
I think you just got pleated.
Yeah, he did.
But he was bleeding.
So you know how badly you have to be bleeding to have it show up through a burgundy sock?
I have a feeling that whatever sort of situation you had down there has a lot of blood flow
due to the reconstructive surgery.
Yeah.
It's the other leg.
It's the other leg.
You got to tell us what's going on with the coconut oil.
I got to Google it.
No, come on.
Tell us.
How are you going to say that?
And then be like, Google it.
Tell us what's going on with the coconut oil, Billy.
It has to do the aliens.
What about it?
So, you know, those big metal structures that have been popping up.
Okay.
There's a lot of artists.
What's the coconut oil?
It's a giant coconut oil ad.
What's the coconut oil?
Since Billy's so much of a pussy to say it for whatever reason, this dude Jay Alvarez
has had like a sex take leaped and he used like so much coconut oil that people thought
it was an ad.
Why would you say it, Billy?
I was hoping that like people would get it at home and just be like, that's fine.
You guys wouldn't get it.
I'm not on the Jay Alvarez.
I don't even know who it is.
It's coconut oil.
He, it's at least like two full bottles full of coconut oil.
I was, I was doing, like I was doing work late last night and then like, we were playing
war zone.
I told you I had to go to sleep and I realized I had something else to do after I got off.
I was like, oh, shit, I have this dude tomorrow.
So I was up doing that.
And then at like 3 a.m. coconut oil is trending.
I was like, why is this trending?
And that was why.
But I was going to do aliens.
Unreal.
All right.
Go quick, Jake.
Hot seat suits because NBA coaches are no longer required this year.
They're keeping that.
Oh, yes.
George Carl didn't last long enough.
They said no track pants though.
Yeah.
They can't go full.
We're going to get a coach in jeans.
That's going to look weird.
Steve Nash can be jeans.
I think Steve Nash is going to be almost acid washed colored jeans.
Yeah.
Way too light.
I like this.
The steves are going to be just rocking their Levi's 501s.
Yes.
Cool.
Coach K wearing a suit tonight.
No.
Okay.
No, college coaches aren't cool thrown.
Second chances.
He's back.
Who?
Tom Brennan.
Yep.
What?
The Roberto Clemente league in Puerto Rico has hired Tom Brennan.
He obviously said terrible things.
Now you can swear.
For the record, I don't hate him for the things he said I hate him because he hated the Cubs.
Okay.
Fair.
But yes, he said terrible things.
He's getting a second chance.
So who's he?
What's he calling?
Puerto Rico.
Puerto Rico.
Puerto Rico.
The Roberto Clemente league.
Roberto Clemente.
He's literally going to the minor.
Roberto Clemente would be extremely happy to learn that his name was being lent to Tom
Brennan.
Tom Brennan.
And I've seen all these people tagging me again of recent videos of me cursing.
Yes, I've done it before, but this was a wake up call.
So I have not done it since.
Well, no, but now it's like a go to sleep call.
No matter what, you're okay.
Actually, you kind of want to get back in the play by play game.
Maybe that's what you need to do, say a slur and go to the Roberto Clemente.
Yeah.
But I was out there.
He was in the major leagues.
Now he's in the Roberto Clemente league.
I don't want to be demoted from this podcast.
What's your know you'd be demoted to the Puerto Rican league.
Like that's where we sit.
Billy is close.
Billy is like one mistake away from going to the Puerto Rico.
Puerto Rico.
That'd be great.
If everyone went to the Puerto Rican league.
Or, Jake, what's your favorite slur?
Yeah.
Like your favorite as in the one that you least like to say.
They're all bad.
They're all bad.
But which one's the worst?
If you had to say.
Some of them aren't as bad.
I'm going to say the Jewish one.
Oh yeah.
Yeah.
You say Billy.
Give him permission.
No.
Give him permission.
Give him permission.
If you could sum up the part of my take crew in like one single panel cartoon.
It'd be Billy whispering into Jake Sears telling him which racial slur.
But do this one.
That is not true of a very open minded person.
I've never heard Billy issue any sort of racial slur.
At anyone.
In general, he says it out loud.
That's like this isn't a joke.
Yeah, this isn't a joke.
You don't want to get cancelled.
Right.
But Tom gave you guys some content for the side of the cereal box that I'm not on.
That's true.
You're not mad about it.
Wow.
All right.
Let's get some Russell Wilson.
PFT.
Yes.
Did you?
Did I see you eating McRib today?
You know what I had for lunch today.
No, actually, Big K, you did not see me eating McRib for lunch today.
You saw me eating two McRibs for lunch today.
That's true.
So this is actually, I'm going off script.
This is really what happened today.
One of our social guys, Josh, he texted me at like, I don't know, nine o'clock this
morning being like, Hey, PFT, would it be cool if I got you McRib for your lunch today
and you did a swipe up for it on her social?
I was like, Yeah, actually, can you make that two McRibs?
And he was like, Absolutely.
Because the McRib is back.
I love McRibs.
You can only get them for a limited time.
I had mine.
I had two McRibs and a large fry and a McDonald's Sprite, which absolutely does hit different
McDonald's Sprite.
It's spicy.
It's delicious.
It's a perfect compliment for a McRib lunch.
So the McRibs back, it's very special to me.
Some cities get the McRib every year, but other cities have gone up to seven years without
the McRib.
The longer places have without it, the more outcry there is for it to return.
The McRib has appeared in tons of shows from The Simpsons to Family Guy to Pardon My Take
and more.
The New York Times, Vice Time and even more have featured op-eds about the McRib, which
I love.
We've driven over state lines to get a McRib because it's not available in their area.
Not a crime.
You're allowed to cross state lines with that contraband.
One man started a McRib Finder that told people where the McRib is available and when
it's available.
Again, I had it for my lunch today.
It's delicious.
Best lunch that I've had in a long time.
Hit all the spots.
It's available for a limited time.
Participate in McDonald's.
Go to McDonald's today.
Get a McRib.
Tell them PFT since you cacti-jack style and they'll make it for you special.
It's with barbecue sauce and pickles on it, which does come on every single McRib, but
especially if you say cacti-jack sent me.
Yes.
And now, Russell Wilson.
Okay, we now welcome on a man who needs no introduction, but we'll introduce him anyway.
It is the greatest quarterback of all time to never receive a single MVP vote.
Super Bowl winner, Russell Wilson.
Mr Unlimited.
Mr Unlimited.
He has a podcast.
It is called Danger Talk.
It is actually new episodes out today.
We're going to run this tomorrow.
It's Wednesdays.
They come out.
He has Dwayne Wade on the show, not to brag.
Let's start there, Russ.
Do you think it's a little unfair that you decided to start doing podcasts because we
don't show up to the football field on Sunday trying to throw touchdowns?
You're kind of encroaching on our space here.
I'm not encroaching.
I'm just going to take it over, man.
I'm just going to take it over completely.
I'm part of my take, but it's been fun, man.
It's been fun to be able to do the podcast, and we've had some amazing guests on Danger
Talk.
It's been pretty cool.
Just throughout the season, I think to be able to talk about legacy, to talk about how
people come through things and how they overcome.
We had Shaq on the first episode talking about his career and his relationship, obviously
with Kobe and different things.
We had John David Washington, the famous actor, Denzel Washington's son, and how he
played in the NFL.
We've had a lot of amazing guests along the way.
Candace Parker came on.
We've had Chris Paul.
We've had Joe Montana was amazing talking about his relationship with Jerry Rice and
kind of comparing that me and DK Metcalf and that relationship.
We've had a lot of amazing other people, too, as well.
We had Mike Tyson right the week before his fight, and obviously this week we're having
Dwayne Wade.
I'm excited about Dwayne because he's one of my favorite athletes.
Obviously we're number three, both of us, so it's been a blast to talk about that.
I'm actually about to do that right after this.
Love it.
Love it.
So go download it right now.
Danger Talk.
Do you have any questions for us?
I know you want to take over our jobs one day, but as you're on the up and coming list,
maybe we can mentor you a little bit now that you're new to the game.
Do you have any tips, any things that you want to learn about the podcast game?
Do your own ad reads?
Yeah, I do my own ad reads.
I do all that.
For me, the biggest question I would have, man, is just the consistency that you guys
do it at.
I think that's key.
In the podcast space, just like anything to be successful, you have to have consistency.
So for us, for me in particular, I've been doing it every week.
Once a week, obviously I got a day job that I got to do.
I spent a good two hours, but I think what has made y'all's podcast so successful because
I think that's the kind of success that everybody wants to have in anything you do.
I'd say the success of our podcast is based on being just a little bit smarter than people
think, but a lot dumber than what we should be.
Like we both should be a lot smarter than we are, but we're not.
We're very, very dumb at the core, but we're also just a tiny bit smarter than people let
on so we can surprise everyone every now and then.
I'd also say that having a strained relationship with DK Metcalf on this side of the table has
really been a boost to our ratings recently.
I know that maybe your relationship is too good with them.
Maybe that's why you're back there and what, I think, was it eighth or ninth when it debuted?
That's pretty good.
That's top 10.
Yeah.
That's not bad.
Not elite.
Well, listen, I think first of all, I'm a little jealous.
I think I need a new nickname.
I mean, I don't know, Mr. Unlimited's pretty good, but I'm not sure if I can rival Big Cat
over there.
And I think the other thing is is that we get that long hair.
Maybe I need to wear some cool glasses and roll.
I think that's where me and DK got to make sure we step up our game.
Do you watch the Mr. Unlimited video and cringe?
No, I laugh.
Actually, the fact that I did that, but it's a whole inside joke.
It's a whole inside joke.
Explain it.
You got to explain it because we watch it and we're like, whoa, what's going on here,
Russ?
What's going on?
So explain it for the people.
I think Mr. Unlimited comes from this idea that you have to, in the midst of season,
in the midst of life, you have to be able to, one, first of all, have fun and joke around.
But I think also, too, you kind of got to have this killer instinct, no matter what
you do.
You kind of got to have this other side of you.
This is kind of the other side of me, Mr. Unlimited, just that mentality, that anything's
possible, that I feel like I can do anything and overcome anything.
And so that's where Mr. Unlimited comes from.
It comes from this idea that no matter what it looks like, no matter what anybody says,
you can't waver.
I think even right now, we're battling, we're fighting for the playoffs and everything else.
The mentality that you can overcome anything and be ready to roll in each week, you got
to be unlimited.
That's right.
I love Mr. Unlimited.
I think anybody that laughs at Mr. Unlimited, they're just telling on themselves for not
being unlimited.
They're limited.
I'm unlimited.
Yeah, they're limiting themselves.
And all the haters are limiting themselves by saying they're not unlimited.
So kudos to you for that.
Do you remember the first time that you, maybe in the NFL, where you're like, ooh, I can
do this?
I belong here.
Maybe when Mr. Unlimited first showed up, if it was a game or specific situation, because
I actually think I know the moment, but I want to hear what you think.
There's two moments.
I think, first of all, I've always felt like I can play and just get an opportunity.
I think, obviously, everybody said I was too short, too small, couldn't play.
But I think getting the opportunity, obviously, and starting right away from my first game,
and I remember taking a rib shot from Docket in my first game against Arizona Cardinals,
like, dang.
And he goes, welcome to the NFL, playboy.
So that was on 4th and 14th, and we got a first down to my man, Charlie Martin.
But the first time that I really realized, you know what, I'm ready, was the New England
Patriots game.
We played at home against, obviously, Tom Brady and their team, and they were really
good then.
And you know, we came from behind, I think we were down, I don't know, 13 or 12 points
or something like that.
And I ended up hitting City of Rice for a game-winning touchdown.
He ran a beautiful route, and it just, that was a big game for my career.
And then the other moment that was really huge was going against the Chicago Bears.
There it is.
You know, in Chicago, Soldier Field, which, I love Soldier Field because I actually played
at WISCO.
I was at that game.
Northern Illinois.
Northern Illinois fan threw a full beer at my back after you put, like, a 50 burger
on him.
That game, though, that game was, that was the end of Brian Erlacher's career, because
I remember in that overtime, you were running around in the pocket, and I was like, oh fuck,
Erlacher looks a lot slower than I've ever seen him.
And it was mostly because you looked faster.
But that game, I was like, yep, Russ is like, this is, it's crazy that he lasted the third
round.
He's going to be good for a very long time.
Yeah, that was a big game.
Because we went, you know, we were balls on the one-yard line, two-yard line.
I think we went 98, 99 yards, something like that, to take it into overtime.
And then we got the ball back, and we just took us right down the field.
That was a, you know, that defense was arguably the best, you know, one of the best defenses
in football, top three defense in football at the time.
And they were on a hot streak, you know, winning all these games and stuff.
And so that moment, and I remember that play, Erlacher still brings it up to this day, you
know, he's, anytime he sees me, he's like, you ended my career, you know?
Yeah, no, it wasn't.
I realized I was getting too old.
But, you know, I think that was a big moment, just going to that hostile environment.
I mean, I miss those environments, man, just the fans, everybody being there.
But, yeah, so that was a key moment for me.
Yeah, it's got to be a big difference, especially in Seattle, not having the crowd around.
The 12s, you know, screaming at the top of their lungs.
You get Michelle to 4A down on the field, like she can't hear what Al Michaels is saying
up in the booth.
Like, we miss that at home, too.
Is there, like, one particular fan that you just can't wait to see, like the Seahawk?
Do you miss the Seahawk?
Yeah, Blitz, you mean?
Yeah, I think the thing that I miss, the group of fans, I miss the fans in the Hawks Nest.
That's probably the fans that are probably the rowdiest, the craziest, they're the one
in the end zone, and it's always interesting watching other teams, other quarterbacks get
terrified when they're going into that side of the field, you know, it's like, they can't
hear anything.
And it's a really, really special end of the field where we've made so many key plays over
our careers.
But do you realize, as a Seattle Seahawk and playing in every Seahawk game, how crazy
your games are and how little they make sense?
Because to us at home, there's nothing like a Seahawks game.
You guys basically play a different sport.
But for you, I would have to assume that it's just, that's just normal.
That's how every game is.
It's like, you know, there's going to be two safeties, it's going to go over time, and
maybe one or two kicks off the upright.
Yeah, I think a lot of people get stressed out by the Seahawks games.
I think every game seems to stress out a Seahawk fan.
We usually come out on top, but we usually find a way to win them all.
And, you know, unfortunately, we had a chance last week, we didn't get to win that one.
But I think, you know, I think we've, I think the key is just, you know, for me personally,
you know, I always try to stay neutral, you know, I have a company called Limlos Mines
actually, and we, going back to Unmister Unlimited, of course, but it's one of those
things that you got to stay neutral.
You can't get too high, too low, you know, there's a lot, they have good players too
on another end.
They have good teams and good, you know, good, you know, so you got to, you got to remain
calm, you know, and in the midst of the games, you know, you got to be able to win the close
games, the crazy matchups, and we've had a lot of those this year.
We had a lot last year, and to be able to find a way, you know, I think that's just
kind of where I feel like I'm at best when I can find a way at the end.
Do you ever surprise yourself though, because I'm personally surprised when I think there's
a few quarterbacks in the league, you know, Aaron Rodgers, Pat from Holmes yourself, Brady
in his prime, where it was like when you're down late, it's not even a question.
It's like, oh, okay, like that Vikings game this year.
It's like, well, yeah, Russell wasn't going to take him down the field, I'm going to score
a touchdown.
Do you feel that?
You're like, I, it doesn't matter how much time I got this.
Yeah, I think that, you know, the key is making sure the other team knows it too.
Yeah.
I think they do.
Yeah.
I think that, that's when you know you got something, you got a little, you know, I don't
know, I think you got to have a clutch gene.
Yes.
Yes.
You got to have this clutch gene.
You got to have that DNA, where it runs through your veins and it runs through your team.
It runs through the emotion of the game and, you know, it runs through the other team's
mind too as well.
You know, I think that's, you strike fear in another team when they know, okay, the
game's all online, you know, nine times out of 10, this may not work out for us if I'm
on the other team.
That's what they're thinking.
I feel like, and that's what you want.
Yes.
What you want to be able to, you know, it's like Michael Jordan or a certain Derek Jeter
comes up to the plate, you know, and, you know, there's this, you know, the guy on second
base, you feel like he's always going to knock them out.
I feel like that, you know, every time I walk up to the, to the plate, I feel like that every
time I walk up to the field, I feel like, you know, even, you know, every time there's
a chance and that's a good feeling to have and to know, you know, and there's history
behind it.
It's not just hoping and wishing.
I mean, I think there's a lot of history behind that and so, you know, I think that
you want to continue that.
You want to continue to have that vision, to continue to have that feeling and that's,
that goes to the, to the thought process throughout the game.
That's got to be an awesome feeling.
Now I, you are a very humble guy, you're a gracious winner, but is there ever a time
in the back of your head when you like, you know, dagger a team late and you get off the
field and Michelle before it comes up and you're, and you're saying, you know, God is
great and my, my teammates and all this, do you ever want to be like, I'm just fucking
better than everyone.
Like that's what I would do every now and then just drop at least listen, like, like,
I know that God is great.
I know that my teammates are great, but let's be honest, I won this game because I'm fucking
awesome.
No, I think, I think, man, this game is the, is the greatest team of sport there is.
You know, I was telling somebody that through the day and you know, you can be as good and
great as you want to be, but it's a collective effort, right?
I mean, I think, you know, basketball, you can have other great players around you, but
in the day you get the ball, you get to shoot one-on-one against somebody and, and baseball,
you know, you walk up to the plate against that pitcher and he throws you that fastball
and you hit it out.
I mean, that's you, that's you recognizing it a lot of the times and tennis and golf
and with football, football, man, you're in the huddle with 10 other guys and it takes
everybody and it takes everybody to do it.
And I think that's what I love about this game is that we all put the preparation and
we all put the work in and when we win, it's, it's, it's because of, it's because of everybody,
you know, together and when we lose, I always feel like it's, it's on meeting.
Make sure I find a way to win and I think that's just kind of the mentality you got
to have at this, at this position, at this game and to do it for a long time, you know,
with success.
All right.
But you're fucking awesome.
You just humbly answered me.
You just did the same thing.
I think you said something earlier when you were talking about like the look that your
opponent gets when they know that you're about to do something to them.
I think you are a humble guy.
I think sometimes it's beneficial for you also to, to put out the, the image of being
super humble after a game because you don't want to give another team bulletin board
material, right?
You don't want to say anything bad about anybody in the NFL.
Everyone's trying real hard, but I can tell with you, like there's something about you
where you enjoy putting other people in an uncomfortable situation where they know that
you're about to do something to them.
I think this game, it's, it's not about bulletin material in terms of the, you know, in terms
of just, you know, you know, why you give other people praise or why you talk about,
you know, why people are going, I think it's just truth.
You know, I think, you know, there's some great players in this league and then great
opponents I have to go up against every week and, you know, this game is the hardest, it's
the hardest game to win consistently yet because it's so many factors, right?
There's so many things and we've been fortunate to win a lot, you know, for the Seahawks over
the, over the years.
I think the thing for me though is, as you kind of mentioned, and I think that's really
important, you know, it's to know that, you know, there's a, there's a marriage, there's
a mat, there's a, there's a feeling, there's a connection between your mentality.
Number one, your team's, your team's mentality, you know, and confidence as a whole and also
the fear that you establish for other teams and, and I think that at the end of the day,
you know, I always, I always tell myself that they already know what's going to happen.
They already know what's going to happen and, and sometimes, you know, it doesn't always
work out that way, but dang man, sure enough, I feel like, you know, nine times out of ten
it's going to go that way and in a positive way.
So that's just, that's just, that's from experience, but it's also from just belief.
All right, we're going to get back to Russell Wilson in a second.
Quick word from our friends at Mugsy Jeans.

look like jeans, but feel like sweatpants.

Okay, back to Russell Wilson.
Going into the Super Bowl against the Broncos, one of the all-time butt-whoopings, the Super
Bowl.
I bet on the Broncos, too.
I bet on the Super Bowl party, bet on the Broncos, we all did.
Thank you for actually putting us out of our misery early, so we didn't have to stick around.
How could they ever stop this Broncos offense?
They're so good.
Yeah, exactly.
Peyton Manning, the greatest of all time.
Going into that game, did you know that it's going to be a bloodbath, that you're just
going to smoke them, or was it in the locker room, was it kind of up in the air?
Well, we felt like we were prepared.
Our defense was unbelievable.
Our defense is unbelievable.
We felt offensively, we were playing really well, and we were connecting, and we felt
like we had the best preparation.
And honestly, sometimes it's better when you don't even know what it's like, meaning
as a collective team, we hadn't been to the Super Bowl.
I think there's only maybe one or two coaches that have ever been to a Super Bowl, ever
played in one, or been in one.
The rest of the guys, though, we had never been to one.
The year before, I went to go watch.
It was the 49ers versus the Ravens, and I went to go watch that game, and I did, you
know, I think it was CBS who did that game, or somebody who, and I got to do the pregame
show and all that.
But I was sitting there, and I wanted to get there, you know, the three hours before the
game, as if I was playing it, to see how guys warmed up, to see what the minutes were like
in between a half-time.
Obviously, that half-time in New Orleans got shut down, and it was even an hour-long
half-time, and it was the whole process.
And so I was preparing beforehand, and I think going into the Super Bowl, we felt like we
could, you know, we could get there that year, and obviously we did, but we felt like we
were ready.
We knew that we were ready.
We knew that when we walked off the bus, it was time for our defense to dominate.
It was time for our offense to go make our plays and do our thing, and we got Marshawn
Lynch in the backfield, and we got guys making plays all over the field.
I remember Percy Harvard returning that kickoff return, too, as well, when we were really
separating the game, and Jermaine Curse made his plays, and it was just a great game.
You know, we really made some really special duck balling, made some sweet plays as well.
So it was one of those nights, and I remember that moon sitting up there, it was supposed
to snow that night.
It didn't snow at all.
The next morning, around 6 a.m., it would snow like crazy in New York, but that night,
I remember just the process of the coin toss and the feeling, and it was a good night,
for sure.
All right.
So bad memory time.
We're good friends with Luke Wilson, who is on that Seahawks team that lost in the Super
Bowl.
He described the locker room afterwards.
Now, you're a positive guy.
You're a positive energy guy.
Were you, did you even allow yourself to be negative for a minute and be like, you know,
maybe kick a trash can throughout a swear word, or were you like, we'll get them next
year?
I think in that moment, I was, you get heartbroken, you know, because the whole year, we just won
a Super Bowl.
We go back to the Super Bowl.
We went all these games and get there to the end, and, you know, we were up in that game
here with, I don't know, six minutes to go.
We felt like we were going to win the game.
Some guys got injured, you know, and everything else along the way on defense, and they end
up coming back, you know, they made some key plays, and then we get the ball with 2-0-1.
We march down the field.
March on.
Kind of give a double move to March on.
He catches the ball.
He goes all the way down the field.
We get down the field again.
Jermaine makes that crazy catch, then we try to run the ball in, and then obviously they
make their play, and in that moment, you get pretty heartbroken because you've spent all
this time, all year, all season, you know, to win it all, and unfortunately it didn't
work, and so for me, you know, there was no other option except for to think about the
moment in that process, think about, dang, like, how could we, how could that happen
in that moment, and then you have to do the press conference right after, which is a terrible
thing to have to do, but you've got to do that and face the world and talk about, you
know, what happened, and you know, that's the weight of playing quarterback.
That's the good thing about playing quarterback, that's also the weight of it, is you've got
to carry everything on your shoulders, and you know, I think you've got to carry the
conversation, you've got to carry the pain, you've got to deal with it, and much is given,
much is required.
And I think that's what I've understood at a young age, I think that's what I understood
early on when we won a Super Bowl and got to hold up the trophy, and also when we didn't
win it, and this whole, my whole career, and to be honest with you, you've got to make
a decision on what you're going to do.
For me, I had to make a decision right there in that moment, and I'm going to let this
destroy, ruin, mess up my career, or am I going to make a change, and that's where really,
you know, the mindset part of everything, and how my mindset was, and that's why I
created Limitless Minds with my brother, and Trevor Moad, and DJ, is that because the mindset
of being neutral, the mindset of overcoming, the mindset of coming through, the mindset
of I'm not going to let one play to find my career was, to be honest with you, changed
my career.
I think it changed my career for the better in terms of how I overcome obstacles, how
I come through situations, how I get ready and be fully prepared, and I think, you know,
that was a critical moment, and I think that's where that alter ego kind of comes up, you
know, a little bit is, yeah, you got to be a little bit unlimited when everybody else
is telling you you're not, you're not this, you're not that, you know, I'm going to prove
you wrong, and so, you know, I think that's kind of been, I don't know if I want to say
the chip on my shoulder, but I think that's been, you know, over the past six years or
so of my career, that's been my drive every day to know that, you know, every day I go
about my business, every day I go about this opportunity, you know, is another great opportunity
to show up and to show people why.
So I appreciate that because I do think you're genuine about it, and, you know, having that
drive you, I would have just quit and felt bad for myself and complained about it for
the rest of my life.
And that's a real option.
I mean, people can use that.
Yeah, no, I take it all the time.
All the time.
That's a real option, and it can really mess people up.
I think players up, and I think you can affect players when you, you know, get to the championship
and it doesn't go your way, you know, it's real, it can really mess you up, but I wasn't
going to let it affect my mindset, I wasn't going to let it affect my career.
I was actually going to use it to catapult my career.
So, so with all that said, though, be honest, how many times just randomly, and let's say
a given year, does it just pop in your head and you're like, damn, we should have run
just right.
You, you don't have to say now.
Yeah.
Well, no, it's not holding you back.
You're Mr. Unlimited, but honest, like just that, you know, maybe just drive it down the
highway randomly in the middle of August, and it's just like, boop, pops in your head because
that happens to everyone.
How many times it doesn't really pop in my head, I think.
I think the first year it pops in your head almost every day.
But I think, you know, now, you know, for me, I've trained my, I've trained my, I've
trained my brain every day to know and to, to know that, man, stuff's going to happen,
man.
It's a long, it's a tough journey and the, the role that I got to play, the position
I got to play, there's going to be stuff that happens along the way.
So I don't, honestly, I don't think about it.
I didn't know the only time I think about it is when somebody either asked me or, you
know, or honestly, you know, if, you know, when you watch the Super Bowl, you know, they'll
show a clip and like, all right, thanks, I get it.
Yeah.
Okay.
Yeah.
All right.
So you do have a great mind.
But also, I also have images, you know, around my house, around my office and stuff
like that, where I'm holding the trophy.
That's the image that pops in my head.
Okay.
That image.
And so that image rains way more true than the other one.
So given, given your background, what you've been through, did you pull DK aside after
you fumbled the ball at the one and you were like, Hey man, we all screw up inside the
two yard line.
Sometimes it gets better.
You know, DK, DK is a guy, man, who, who never, he never wants to mess up.
He always wants to do his best thing.
He always wants to make a, make a play for us.
He always does.
And so, you know, I think, you know, he's in the second year that, that, that play, you
know, just, you know, we both said it never again, you know, that, that won't, won't ever
happen again.
You know?
And so I think that, you know, for me that it's part of the process, man.
I think sometimes, you know, you have to have these lessons so you can learn.
Yeah.
Did you play any other sports growing up?
Yeah.
I played basketball.
I played baseball.
You know, I was a multi-sport guy.
You know, I think my basketball game, you know, I was, I thought I was Steph Curry back
in the day, but I really wasn't.
I was, I was more like, I played more defense and, and I was a good passer though.
You want to know, look past.
I'm giving it to you.
You know, I can give you that know, look past full court bounce pass, one skip and, and
a dunk.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But my, my, my shooting game, I was, I was below average.
Let me tell you this.
My, my sister, she came out my second year in the NFL, here we won the Super Bowl and
she came out and she was, I don't know, probably, she was probably like 14 years old.
And just, just to give you a little background now, she was a McDonald's All-American.
She's, she's placed on the number one team in the country at Stanford, the number one
team in the country right now, girls basketball team.
And so she can play and I'll just give you a little background, but so anyways, she comes
out here.
She's at the gym, at the Bellevue club and everybody's watching us and we're just shooting
around.
But then now everybody comes in, we're playing one-on-one pick up.
This is right before Christmas and if she don't, she beats me, she, she breaks me down
so bad.
She beats and then rubs it in talking all this trash in front of me.
I felt like I was playing against Gary Peyton or something and she's right.
She's doing all this trash talking to everything else.
So, you know, I haven't played her since.
Yeah.
Definitely stay away from that.
So we do know that you're a baseball player.
Yeah.
It's that and then the Super Bowl play that gets put on TV every single time that we watch
you when you're out there on Sunday.
But obviously you're a baseball player.
I have to ask, who's a better baseball player?
You or Tim Tebow?
Ooh.
Ooh.
Good question.
I'm going to go with me.
Yeah.
I'm going to go with me.
I can turn a mean double play, Tim.
I don't know though.
I haven't seen him play though, but you know, I think that if I played, you know, if I really
had focused on baseball, you know, out of high school gobs, and I was going to be a top
pick out of high school, you know, and then I had to end up turning it down.
I still got drafted late, but you know, I always feel like baseball is actually my best
sport.
Really?
You know, and then I went to Kyle.
That's, yeah.
Wait, hold on.
You wouldn't want to be in baseball.
Hold on.
I, this is, this is always the cop out there.
Yeah.
Check this out.
I'm one of the best quarterbacks ever, but my real good sport was baseball.
Well, let me tell you why.
Let me tell you why.
When I was in high school, I was, you know, I was, you know, I was the top player in the
country, one of the top players in the country and everything else.
I went to area of co-games, the East Coast game and all that.
And one of my actually roommates, teammates was actually Madison Bumgarner.
So I, we played in the same team and stuff like that, you know, one point, but you know,
baseball was actually my love.
I played that since I was young, you know, and that was probably the sport that, uh,
was probably my, my, my best sports and I, you know, for me, what happened was, is that
I ended up going to NC State.
I get there, you know, in, in football is so demanding, you know, you do it every day.
I had to wake up at 430 the morning, I had to go to, I had to go to, you know, football
practice in the spring, get, go to train, then go to classes, then come back to baseball.
So I never really got to fully blossom fully in my baseball career.
But when I was younger, I felt like, you know, out of high school and stuff that baseball
was actually my best sport.
You know, I felt like I could play football, but you know, but, uh, I guess, I guess God
had different plans for me and, uh, now I get to spin the rock and, and throw a deep
go ball.
Sorry guy, DK Mecca.
Oh man.
Your deep ball is something because we talk about it on the show all the time.
What's it with DK, it looks a little bit different.
I feel like you usually, you like to drop back and you throw that sky ball, the one
that comes down with like a little bit of rain still on dropping a bucket, dropping a bucket
and whether it's Doug Baldwin, one of the lockets, you know, you have all these receivers
that are really good at catching those types of passes.
Has there been a guy that you've worked with where you throw your stand, your standard Russell
Wilson deep ball that just can't get the hang of having the ball come down from basically
straight up in the air.
You know, uh, I think most guys can catch it pretty good.
You know, DK is pretty phenomenal.
Tile lock is probably the one of the best trackers of the ball.
He's kind of, I always tell him, he's like Kenny Lofton, you know, Kenny Lofton, the
baseball player.
He could track anything.
You know, DK's got that King Griffey junior, uh, you know, unbelievable ability to go track
a ball too as well.
You know, so those two guys are really special.
I think, uh, the biggest thing though is, is that, you know, when the ball's in the
air, do guys panic or not?
You know, and I think that I try to put it, you know, in the movie Sandlot, you just put
your hand up.
I think about just, hey, put your hand up.
Let me, let me, let me throw it to your hand and, uh, only, only where you can catch it
down the field.
And so I think the biggest thing that you'll notice in practices or, you know, early in
the training camps and all that is who's really great at tracking the ball, you know,
and, and those guys are, you know, probably some of the best, you know, guys who've ever
been on track the deep ball and make plays.
That's got to be a pretty cool moment to like, when you release one of those deep balls,
do you catch yourself just watching the ball being like, this is, this is almost your zen
p, you know, place.
If you're not getting hit, but you're watching the ball and then they catch it and score
a touchdown, that's got to be like, you're sitting back like, oh my God, I'm that good.
I would do that all the time.
Well, one of my favorite moments in football.
It's like kind of like hitting the home run when you hit a home run, you don't even feel
it on the bat.
The ball just, you just know it's out.
Well, on a deep ball, we don't get to experience this this year because there's no crowd.
But one of my favorite things when you're playing on the road and everybody's booing
you, everybody's screaming and the whole crowd noise and all that stuff's going on.
And then you got a guy going down the sideline, you launch this 60 yard, you know, deep go
ball and the whole crowd goes, yeah.
And there's this pause a moment in time where the ball's spinning down in the air and boom,
he catches it.
And you can hear the ball hit the guy's hands and say, boom, you know, and he catches it
to transition scores.
That's like one of the greatest feelings.
But all I want to know is if you can catch a deep ball, I mean, I think you got to come
out to one of these off-seeds and workouts.
You two guys.
Yeah.
I'm faster than DK.
I'm faster than DK.
You think you're faster than DK?
I know I'm faster.
He is.
We rate him in a race.
We raced in this hallway right outside here.
We got the video and everything.
I'm faster than him.
All right.
I'm going to have to tag DK in this whole podcast because you're talking shit now.
I'm going to have to, well, I benched more than him until I got my shoulder injured,
but I can probably get back up there.
So yeah, I mean, I'd be glad to come out there and put the clamps on him.
I don't think he'd get around me.
No chance.
Big Cat, you think you can throw it further than me?
No, I'm actually, if you invite us out to camp, I'm literally going to spend the entire
time looking for Pete Carroll's twin.
So he has a twin, right?
Have you seen his twin brother?
Yeah.
Yeah.
He does kind of look like him.
Okay.
Thank you.
And then the plot thickens.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I've been looking for Pete Carroll's twin for a long time.
I feel like he's got a twin and he's just, he's kept it under wraps.
Yeah.
Well, yeah.
He's got a brother that looks like a older version of Pete.
Like a twin.
Exactly.
This is what you need to take to heart when you're trying to figure out how to build your
podcast up.
Just invent something and then just never let go of it.
Big gas convinced.
That wasn't a no, by the way.
Just so everyone knows.
You don't think, I did invent something though.
I created Mr. Unlimited.
That's true.
Well, no, that's a mindset.
That's a real thing.
That wasn't a no.
That was not a no.
You're like, you giggled and you're like, yeah, you know what, he does look a lot like
him.
He says he's older, but haven't seen a birth certificate.
Interesting.
He actually does have, he actually does have, have a, I think, I think it's his brother.
Yeah.
That looks pretty, pretty.
Exactly like him.
The older version of Pete.
Yes.
Like a twin.
Okay.
I brought you by cross country mortgage.
America's crazy.
Good mortgage company.
Go to CCM lens.com slash take to learn more about your future home buying experience or
refinancing needs, equal housing opportunity.
All right.
I know I talked about bad moments.
So you don't think about them, but I do.
The Rose Bowl.
Okay.
The Rose Bowl.
So I was, uh, you know, remember in, um, Crossroads, Bone Thugs and Harmony, the video where
like the soul leaves the body.
I had the reverse.
There's a piece of my soul is up at the top row of the Rose Bowl after the ball wasn't
clocked.
That's just there.
It's there forever.
I was at that game.
What happened?
You clocked it like that.
I think, I think we got screwed.
We're a hundred percent got screwed.
Okay.
Thank you.
And the thing is, is that the ref started whining his, whining his army.
We got the ball all the way down there and college.
The clock pauses.
Right.
Once you get down the field.
So the clock pauses.
Once you get the first down and ever.
So we were all ready.
Once aligned.
So we had, you know, Peter Kahn's, we had, uh, Travis, you know, we had Travis Frederick.
We had all these guys who had played in the league, you know, you know, Ricky Wagner and
you know, all these pro guys were actually still playing the league now.
And so we were all ready to roll.
We had been through the situation.
We were ready to go.
But when the ball's down there, there's two seconds on the clock.
So the clock doesn't start until the ref blows his whistle.
So we're all ready.
We talked to the ref.
Hey, we're going to clock it.
We're going to clock it.
Okay.
We were all ready to go.
You know, as soon as he blows, and me and Peter, as soon as he blows, blows the whistle,
we're going to, we're going to clock it.
So he goes, we clock it.
We clock it.
We clock it.
Well, there's no way two seconds around the clock.
The problem was, okay, obviously the ref, he's who's behind us, starts whining his
arm early.
Boom.
And then blows the whistle.
So that's what they're seeing up top.
So we lose a full second game over.
We felt like we're going to win that game too.
And that was a great matchup.
That was one of my favorite games of my career.
The back and forth playing the Rose Bowl, the best thing about the Rose Bowl, when you're
sitting there, never sit in my, never forget sitting next to Nick to, I just throw my touch
down the right corner of the end zone and me and him are sitting there and I'm talking
to Paul Chris on the headset and talking to Nick and I'm sitting there and I said, Hey,
Nick, you know, coach Chris, look at the stands, look at the stands.
I said, and they go, uh, yeah, what about it?
I said, it's amazing if you look down the left, look down the right, the goal post,
right down the middle of the goal post, you split one side of the field, it's all red.
The other side of the field is all green and the sun's just going down and the golf
court, the field was like a golf course.
It feels like a par five, you know, right on the, right on the green and, you know, it's
just a special, special moment, special place and so I'll never forget that game.
But one of the coolest parts about that game is actually, you know, after the game and
I do my press conference and everybody's asking me how you're going to use this.
I said, I'm going to be able to use this one day and, you know, hopefully I'll be able
to win a Super Bowl because of it.
And, you know, unfortunately we've been able to win a Super Bowl and all that.
But also too is, you know, after the, after that press conference, I'll never forget walking
down the steps.
I still, I still have my cleats on and at the time we were in indeed his team, obviously
at Wisconsin and sure enough, Phil Knight, you know, comes out, you know, right behind,
you know, right in front of me and he goes, oh man, it's a nice game, Russell.
I want to make you a Nike athlete one day.
I just want to let you know, you know, and, you know, when insulting, you know, when you're
ready to play in the NFL and everything else and I think you're going to be one, you know,
Nike athlete, one of the greatest quarterbacks of all time.
And that was a cool, like, Phil Knight walking into him, coming around the gate, right before
I get on my golf cart.
And so that was, that was a special moment for me.
I'll never forget.
And then I was a college kid and just knowing that, you know, I'd already graduated.
That was my last game of my career and, you know, all that and it's time to go play in
the pros.
I'm happy.
That was a special moment for you.
I think I got blackout drunk and had to get like a flight back to Chicago at 6am the next
day.
You were happy.
And he got like a $20 million endorsement from Nike.
And I puked a bunch of red wine.
I remember there was a taxi cab.
The beer stand had a huge line, so I switched to wine in the second quarter and I must have
drank like 12.
Well, how about this?
How about this big cab?
How about like, how about I get you a sign in Wisconsin Jersey from me just to make it
up to you?
Okay, done.
We'll put it up in the studio.
And then I'll think about the Rose Bowl.
I'll think about you not clocking it in time, actually you getting screwed every single
time I look at it.
But yes, let's do it.
Done.
Can you sign Russell Wilson, quote, Mr. Unlimited, in quote?
Don't worry.
That's part of your sign.
Now we'll go up behind it.
Now we'll go up behind it.
I don't know if you knew this, but we're Mr. Unlimited.
We're the number one sports podcast.
People will see it and they'll be like, oh, there's Russ and you're a badger for life,
not a wolf pack, whatever the hell you say.
Yeah, do you consider yourself part of a wolf pack?
No, he says pack a pack of badgers.
Badgers is the important part.
It's the cradle of quarterbacks.
You've got Phillip Rivers, Mike Glennon.
He went to NC State.
Yeah, there's some good quarterbacks out of NC State and also Jacobi Brasette went there.
So there's some good quarterbacks for sure.
And obviously Phil is one of the best to ever play this game.
For me, he wore a 17, it was funny because when I was in college, sorry when I was in
high school and I committed to NC State, I never forget going to a game and they had
Roman Gabriel's number retired up there on the Rafters or whatever and they had Phillip
Rivers and I told my dad, this is right before he got really sick.
I'll never forget I was in a Dick's Sporting Goods at the time in Richmond, Virginia and
I told my dad, I said, hey, dad, I'm going to have my number retired there one day and
I got the number 16 and all that and so I was wearing that number but I never forget
I wanted that number to be special 16 because 16, 17, 18 and yeah, so it was a pretty cool
time.
The thing for me though is that one of the best things about NC State for me was I didn't
know my dad was going to get sick.
My dad got terribly sick, he had to get his leg amputated, he had diabetes and it was
a heavy thing.
My dad used to always say to me, why not you, why not you, why not you become this, why
not you become that and that was why we created our Why Not You Foundation because it was
that driving force behind everything in my life to be honest with you.
So my dad gets really sick, gets his leg amputated, suffers a stroke, goes into a coma and they
said he's not going to live for another, not going to live at all after 12 or 18 or
more hours left to live and my mom caused me crying.
She says, I don't believe it, I don't believe it, all this tons of faith and sure enough
she calls me about an hour and a half later and says he wouldn't believe it.
He moved, he woke up out of it, I started praying and started singing him a song, the
next thing you know, he wakes up right in front of the doctors and even though the doctor
when he woke up, the doctor said he would never be able to see a game, he'd never be
able to see anything again, he'd never be able to talk again.
So if God isn't so amazing, he was able to walk, he was able to come see a game, he was
able to come see my games and if I wasn't in NC State, he wouldn't have been able to
see that.
So I was placed there for a reason, you know, in that time period and every Thursday night
I would drive, not every Thursday night but a lot of the Thursday nights I would drive
up to NC State to Richmond, Virginia which is about two and a half hour drive so I could
go see my dad and I had an opportunity to go to Florida State, actually Jimbo Fisher
actually called me and turned the whole transition and everything and I was a good baseball player
too and so I was going to be able to play two sports there potentially and Chuck Amato
had just went to Florida State as well and so that's where that opportunity, but I ended
up sticking there and it was one of the best times of my life, obviously being in NC State
but also it kept me close to my dad and then once my dad passed away, I never forget this
little quiet whisper in my ear, my dad even when I was young he'd say, yeah son and I'd
be sitting there, I'd be 19 years old, he'd be like, you know son, you got to go to this
school of Wisconsin and I'm like, I don't even know where Wisconsin's on the map, I'm
from Richmond, Virginia, I'm just looking, I'm like where's Wisconsin, I'm not going
there, you know and he said, ah there's this great coach there, this guy Barry Alvarez,
the whole thing coach, you got to play for Barry Alvarez one day, well dang sure if I
didn't know enough, Brett Beal and McCauze me during my whole transition of you know
pro baseball in college and he says, I want you to come up here and all that stuff and
I get to, you know and I start thinking about my dad and I go there to that campus, it was
June 9th, 2010, I fly ours, yeah June 9th, 2011, my dad passed away June 9th, 2010, June
9th, 2011, I go to fly to, you know, Wisco, I get there and sure enough I don't meet Barry
Alvarez and that's when I knew, I was like, this is where, this is a year later after
my dad passed away, I said this is, this is where I'm supposed to play, this is, that's
awesome, it's a crazy story, so and the thing is I drove a U-Haul, 16 and a half hours from
where I was all the way up to Madison, Wisconsin, I landed and I pulled up to, to park at Camp
Randall and the street I pulled up on, there's a street called Bree Street, spelled B-R-E-E-S,
Bree Street and I'm like, once again it's another sign because Drew Breeze is one of
my favorite quarterbacks of all time and guy that I really admired and watched play a lot
in college and I'm like, okay, well here I go and I pulled into Camp Randall and I started
throwing deep balls of Nick Tune that day.
That's awesome, love it.
You got, I mean, you got to, you got to wrap because you have to do your podcast, but I
got to say, we're cynical guys, you're a positive guy, it's fun talking to a positive guy.
We didn't even get to nano-bubbles too, are we still in on nano-bubbles?
Hey, you know there's maybe, I don't know.
Okay, alright.
Here's the testimonial.
I'm like, we're still in.
Here's the testimonial, I broke my foot like four years ago, I drank nano-bubbles, there's
a picture of me drinking the nano-bubbles with a swollen foot.
Three weeks later when I had surgery on it, it was one of the worst cases of a broken
foot the doctor had ever seen.
He cuts into my foot and he's like, it's fixed, there was nothing to fix in my foot after
I drank nano-bubbles.
Four years after that, he beats DK Metcalf in a foot race.
Sounds like you're unlimited.
Yes.
I'm unlimited.
Mr. Unlimited.
I'm not sure, I'm not sure.
I'm not sure about that race.
Yeah.
The hair is unlimited.
No, it happened.
Legit.
It's fine.
Yeah.
I'll put the clamps on DK.
Just don't throw any slants on him.
And I'll find that twin brother.
Alright.
So Russ, thank you so much.

Yo, look at the fucking sign language guy that DeBlasio has.
He's kind of metal.
He's actually, he's out there building DeBlasio.
He's like, he's stealing a shot in big time.
He looks like he's got a sick ass band that plays in Williamsburg.
Yeah.
Or a Dungeons and Dragons League.
Or Dungeons and Dragons League.
All right, Billy, FightPaul.com, do you want to say anything about it before I start reading
slide by slide?
It is basically, for those in the investment banking world, it's a slide deck to hopefully
get, you know, get what, actually, you know, why don't you read it?
Why don't you read it?
I think, before, no, I want you to read it, but before you read it, why don't you tell
us what the end goal, because my goal, my interpretation, my interpretation of Billy
Football is that he thinks he's accomplished something when he's made a website for it.
So if there's any problem in his life whatsoever, he's like, I'm going to make an app.
I'll make a website.
And then boom, the problem is solved somehow.
So tell me what you want this website to accomplish.
Hopefully this convinces people in high places that it would be extremely profitable for
all of us to sort of back this sort of event.
And where'd you get the title?
Why Jake Paul should fight me?
Where'd that come from?
My brain.
Okay.
And it's by Billy.
By Billy.
All right.
So here we go.
Slide one.
I will say the transitions are the slowest things I've ever seen in my life.
Yeah.
It's the build in anticipation.
That was the point.
It's very hard.
It's literally...
I think they're too fast.
Five-second transition.
It's like, whoa, what's coming next?
No, because both slides are on the screen at the exact same time.
Yes.
It's by the way, so it's F-I-T-E Paul.com.
First slide.
Jake Paul is lying about his height.
He is listed at six one, but is really five nine.
And I put a picture of Jake Paul who wore a headdress in his face off with Nate Robinson
to show that he's not actually the same height as Nate Robinson.
But he's taller than Nate Robinson.
Because he has that giant headdress on his down head is clearly taller than Nate Robinson.
He was five nine.
Yeah, but remember, Nate Robinson is really like five six.
He was listed at the combo.
No, that's not true.
Anyway, next slide.
Okay.
Hold on.
What was he listed at the combo?
I think it's like five seven.
He's taking a while.
He's taking a while.
The next picture?
Hang on, I'm still not there.
Okay, hold on.
Wait, wait, wait.
No, he's really only five nine.
As you can see in the next slide, I have a picture of him next to Dave Portnoy.
And he is basically the same height as Dave Portnoy in his hair.
Two inches taller than Dave, who is five 10.
No.
I debate that.
This is all built on the fact that Jake Paul is five nine.
Anyway, next slide.
Hold on.
Wait.
Hold on.
Hold on.
Hold on.
Okay.
I'm not there.
I'm not there.
I'm not there.
I'm not there.
I'm not there.
I'm not there.
The depth like he's behind Dave in this picture.
Jake Paul has only fought super short guys.
Wait, no, read the slide.
I am tall.
So this is page three of you saying that you're taller.
Yes, we were really hammering the ball.
I am tall.
It's like Josh Allen, 2.0.
But not a joke.
It would make him look good because he's only fought short people.
And also the last guy he fought who is very short is actually taller than him.
So there's a picture of him next to YouTuber KSI, who some of you may know, and he is shorter
than KSI, who is listed as five nine.
Where is YouTuber KSI listed at five nine?
Somewhere.
Okay.
Okay.
So.
Third slide.
Six foot.
Six foot.
And he looks like he could be an inch taller than KSI in this picture.
Yeah.
Because KSI is standing close to the camera.
Anyway, next slide.
All right.
Next slide.
Hold on.
All right.
This one's good.
Now we're off the height thing and we're on to something different.
So why should I fight?
Wait.
It's a picture of Billy with holding two cocks in his hand.
He's got a big throbbing cocks.
He's got two cocks and a bitch.
And a left hand.
Actually, one is a hen.
Who are these guys' names?
One snowman.
So he's got snowman's cocks.
Are these their stage names?
No, no.
One is snowman and the other one is Brahma.
Brahma.
Well, no, that's a species.
Yes.
I haven't named all the hens because I thought one of them would die.
You named your hens after bulls.
No, that's actually their species.
Anyway.
Okay.
I am blessed to have access to the media powerhouse that is Barstool Sports in part of my take.
Okay.
But the part of my take part isn't in the deck.
Fighters come to Barstool Sports to use our apparatus to sell fights.
We are the apparatus.
Which is not true.
Which fighters?
We can sell this fight.
When does this ever happen?
I'm trying to think of a fighter, let alone multiple fighters.
I would debate that I am not the only one in this office who could fight Jake Paul because
he's really a fraud.
Who else?
But I figure, I bet Jetski, Takam, and Rudy, just theoretically, if they would fight him.
But if we could figure out how this could happen, I would love to be chosen to fight
Jake Paul.
I legitimately...
This is when you time out, Tom.
This is basically a Monday reading, by the way.
This is a Billy special.
He makes a website to try to fight Jake Paul, and in it, he already is negotiating against
himself where he's like, well, other people could probably fight him too.
Well, I just don't want to make it about me.
I just think this could happen.
Yes.
But Billy...
But I just want to be...
What was the point of including the sentence, I would debate that I am not the only one
who could fight Jake Paul in the office.
Because he's a fraud.
But that's not because I say the whole time.
You're not answering the question.
Why would you even introduce that to us?
Yes, you now have made me think like, ooh.
Now I actually want Rudy to fight him.
Right.
I would love that to happen.
Rudy's arms are way bigger than Billy's too.
Stop fucking negotiating yourself.
I legitimately have the least amount of commitments out of the whole company at this moment.
Even though we have given Billy like 17 projects that he hasn't done any of them.
And we deferred my senior spring to the fall to train and have less commitments myself.
Hold on.
That's my favorite part of the entire deck is Billy basically saying, I don't really
have anything else to do.
And we literally have given Billy like there's a list of things that we want Billy to do
right now.
And he's not doing it.
I'm working on the Dan Hare presentation.
Just like Vanny Woodhead title, he just openly says, I got nothing.
Nothing going on.
Billy, a little bit of coaching and your writing here.
The last two sentences that you have, you start one out by saying I would debate that
and then you said what you wanted to say.
And in this one, you start up by saying, I legitimately have.
You can just knock those parts of the phrase out and just say, I have the least amount.
Don't say I legitimately have because now I'm like, wait, why is he saying legitimately?
I'm putting their brain.
No, no, no.
I'm putting their brain at pretzels.
Is everything else not legit?
And then I hit him with the facts.
And then we say, I would debate that I'm not.
Why are you debating against yourself?
Literally in that sentence.
That sentence is you arguing against yourself.
Well, puts their brain at pretzel, they're on their heels and then boom, facts.
No.
I am not the only one who could fight Jake Paul.
You don't have to say that.
You're also addicted to saying the word legitimately.
Mm-hmm.
And anyways.
All right.
So finish this slide and then we'll go to the next.
I also like to work out and have endured a good amount of head trauma, which make me
suitable for boxing.
Your brain is already warmed up.
Got it.
All right.
Hold on.
Hold on.
Hold on.
These transitions are so long.
Okay, wait.
All right.
Yep.
Okay, go.
Ideas on how to make money from the fight.
Number one, if you're pitching to Wall Street.
No, dude.
No, dude.
I don't know if you know this, but Jake Paul is short.
He's short.
He's short.
These playaways make money from this.
All right.
Anyway.
There were 15 minutes in this slide.
You buried this, like after three pictures of Jake Paul standing next to guys who were
between five foot nine and five 11, then one picture of you holding two tickets.
This is literally prestige worldwide.
Investors, possibly you.
We're basically both the sportsbook.
We get a bunch of sponsors and you know, you don't really have to pay me like another
fighter and we can give a whole money to Jake Paul to get him to actually fight on
rough and rowdy.
And wait.
So he's fighting on rough and rowdy.
Yeah.
That's where we put the fight, but you won't fight on rough and rowdy.
So you're actually ineligible with this fight.
You said I will not fight in rough and rowdy.
That is not true.
You're putting words in my mouth.
I would fight in rough and rowdy, but right now I only want to fight Jake Paul in rough
and rowdy.
Okay.
Well, no, he just went through everything.
Oh, you did them all?
What he just did?
Sponsored workout videos?
He decided not.
He skipped over all the points of how this would make money and gave a basically.
Okay.
Yeah.
Basically, I would fight him and be sweet and people would watch it.
All right.
Here's number six.
In the scheme of fight purses, you only have to pay Jake Paul real money.
So he's, again, Billy is the master negotiating himself.
You need to read art of the deal.
This isn't about me making money.
This is where the real purse comes in.
Everybody money.
This is where the real purse comes in because you can pay Jake the price of two big names.
B, I do not need millions.
Three, legit.
Don't need any guaranteed money.
I like, I like you switching up to legit there.
Yeah.
Shorted very informally.
Yeah.
I do not need millions in the next point.
Legit.
Don't need any guaranteed money.
D, but I would like a little money.
Maybe a percentage of pay-per-view so that it's incentive.
Which would be very fair.
Which would be potentially millions.
No one in the history of presentations has said, I don't need any money.
I don't need any money.
Dude, legit.
No joke.
Don't need any money.
And then the last point, but maybe a little bit of money.
Just incentive based money, which I think would mean I earned it.
Okay.
No money.
Next.
This is just such a funny fucking.
Hang on.
It's gonna take a while to get there.
There's a lot of words.
Oh, this one's good.
All right.
Go ahead, Billy.
Take it away.
I could piss Jake Paul off.
So bad.
The fight would sell itself.
I would talk shit on every podcast.
And this is where I wanted to talk to you about.
You're now using our, what would, what PFT, Hank, Liam and I built to now as this is
just free advertising.
100%.
So part of my take is now becoming a touch shit to Jake Paul podcast.
Yes.
I would replace my animal fact with new way to disc Jake Paul.
Very, very presumptuous of you, Billy.
Well, I was hoping, you know, I'd have a little support in this endeavor to fight Jake Paul.
I might be after all this.
Hey, Billy, let me talk to you in your words.
Legit.
I might be.
I haven't decided yet.
He picks it hard.
No.
Okay.
Okay.
If you're going to draw that line, if you guys are projecting that we could take some
of Billy's money that he doesn't want to earn.
It's true.
That's the whole point, guys.
No, no, me personally.
Yeah.
10% of your, of your purse and I'm in your camp.
No, no, he gets 10% of his purse.
We get 90.
No, we get 90.
Yeah.
This is supposed to be like impeaky blinders when they're bringing the boxers and they're
like, oh, oh, my friend from the tales and he's like that giant dude.
I'm that giant dude.
He's going to fight the other dude.
Spoiler.
You put Jake Paul.
He's big.
No, he's tiny.
What?
Hold on.
Let's go back.
Hold on.
Give me five minutes.
I'm going to go back in the slides.
So even when we're not getting the podcast, me and big cat over the last like two weeks
have just randomly said to Billy, but wait, isn't Jake Paul like six foot two?
And he probably said to him, maybe a dozen times and he keeps forgetting that he's explained.
You guys are Alfie Solomon's and I'm the fighting.
So, so you would talk shit on every podcast.
You would get jacked as fuck.
Yeah.
This is the best line.
I would make him think I was easily beatable, but I would rock his shit.
You just said, he's not going to think you're easily beatable because you just said it's
a ropey dope.
I'd probably be like, yo, I'll take a dive around.
I wouldn't take it.
I think I've cut to the core of what Billy's trying to do here.
It's the third bullet point on this slide where he says, I would get jacked as fucked.
And now, now this is, this is underneath the headline of ways that he could piss Jake Paul
off.
Like Jake Paul is going to be watching Billy's train videos.
God damn it.
Look how, look how strong he's got.
It would piss him off.
The entire purpose behind this is because you want to work out and take steroids and
get strong.
No, I would not take steroids.
I would not take steroids like Jake Paul.
You don't care about the fight.
You don't want to fight Jake Paul.
You just want to lift and take sick drugs.
Dude, legitimately, I just need a new athletic challenge.
I'm living in a post athlete.
Yeah.
You're like a dog.
We need to start running you.
All right.
Last slide.
Hang on.
Actually, no, go check it out for yourself.
Fight Paul.
Defy yourself, Andrew.
Yeah.
Fire.
That was a little easy.
This is better than Europe.
Guess what Billy?
Now I'm in.
Okay.
Dude, there's going to be so many more people.
Do you have the analytics for this website?
How many hits have you had?
Actually, I don't know.
I got to check it out.
Yeah.
Probably millions.
Probably.
So fire, some man is resistant to fire.
Did we ever figure out if that was true?
No, it's not true.
Don't put your fire centers in fire.
You just made that one up.
But historically they were.
Goes to water to breed.
Yes.
Like Jim McElwain.
Yeah.
That was a shark fucker, right?
Oh my God.
Yes, it was.
Fire up chips.
I didn't even do guys on checks because this was too good.
Billy, everyone go to fightpaul.com.
You know what you need to do is you need to get linked up with cash app and have like
a little cash app counter that people can donate to your fight fund.
To give to Jake Paul.
So you fight.
Correct.
I mean, legitimately, I could like legitimately.
Yeah.
This is way more realistic than you guys think.
Like I thought this whole podcast.
I agree off the idea of doing lofty goals.
Yeah.
Billy's right.
Just being like shooting for the moon.
What?
Billy's right.
What?
That's when Big Cat and Hank came to Austin, Texas.
Yes.
And we sat down in my living room and recorded the first episode of part of my day.
Yes.
We sat down.
We're going to do a show.
Today we're going to talk about Chris Jones's penis breaking through his compression shorts
and also shoes for the moon because even if you land short, you'll be a star.
Dude, I'm like the opposite of a lofty goal.
If I have to go anywhere, I'm like, nah, probably not.
PFT wants to kick in the NFL and I want to fight.
No, I don't.
No, we can opt it out, dude.
Yeah.
After you fail.
No, he opt.
Oh.
When did I fail?
When did I fail at the NFL?
You should fight Billy.
No, I don't want to fight PFT.
He's too short.
Fuck you, Billy.
I'll fight you.
You want to fight me?
No.
Yeah.
Why?
Because you're a bitch.
Because you know you get your shit wrecked.
Yes.
Because I would get your shit wrecked.
I would get Jacked as fucked and it would piss Billy off so bad.
Billy's like too nice to his heart.
He wouldn't be able to fight you.
I know.
Billy, I'm doing you one quick favor because I do love you and I like your ambition.
I love your passion.
Thank you.
That's what they say on Shark Tank when they're like, this person fucking sucks.
Yeah, this person's got shit for brains.
I love your passion.
So on thesaurus.com, here's some words you can use instead of legitimately.
You can use correctly, decently, equally, equitably.
That's a good one.
Equitably.
Equitably.
If you had said equitably, I'd be like, I'm in.
I would have already been in.
Yeah.
All these people who.
Reasonably is a good one.
Also, here's a big selling point.
If you actually like super hate me, I might get knocked out.
That's a selling point.
Think about it.
That's actually a really good selling point.
That should be slide one.
You want to see, hey, I'm Billy football.
Want to see me get my shit rocked.
All right.
Numbers, by the way.
I love you guys.
I love you guys.
I have a new strategy.
I'm now going to pick numbers that I don't want to win.
So I'm going to try not get the number on purpose.
It's brilliant.
You guys are smart.
Okay.
So.
What are your comedy tricks?
We're going at the kid who's been.
I'm not quitting on me.
Mix his lately.
Sean flairty, he send me 72 with it.
You call me to get your number.
You put him back?
Yeah.
Thank you.
I want you to look at this Google doc that I made before.
I made this last night okay.
And read to me what I typed in there last night?
All right.
So this is, this is actually really well done.
If Billy brings in the 69 ping-pong ball, I will invest 10k in his fight
Did you bring it in Billy when I asked you to last night you remember that I gave you an order?
No, it says did you bring it in last night? Check the edit history. You didn't write
Did you bring it in? I didn't bring it. It's mine. Here we go. I earned it 56
And I earned my one numbers again 78 18 18 Sean Flaherty
This take on the remix is from him
Oh
Damn
Life kind of sucks when we and still
No, he's still champion, you know what?
Yeah, I find the mountain
Raining champion you had you had the shortest championship of all time. Uh-huh. I even happened
I climbed the mountain and you know what at the bottom of the mountain?
69 has an asterisk on it. Mm-hmm. Yeah, big asterisk
Although you could make the argument if you had been smarter that since you didn't pick it
You did that intentionally so you won today
But customs are immune to venomous snake bites and they carry their babies in pouches and their body temperatures often too low to carry rabies
Love you guys
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
