This is Christine Brown, and while I have to listen to this podcast as my motherly duty,
you have the choice not to. My sons sometimes say some naughty things when they're trying
to be funny. But really, they're just being stupid. You still want to listen? Go right
ahead. I am not your mother.
All right. Welcome back to the Dregs of the 2002 season on the Patriots' Dynasty podcast.
Dog days of summer. Yeah, literally and figuratively, I think. Yep.
Struggling through the longest losing streak of the Patriots' Dynasty.
This is 2002 week eight, hosting the Denver Broncos.
Do you just want to get it out the way? They don't win this one either.
That's the fucking Broncos back in the early 2000s. It's kind of a given.
I'm in the parties.
Five. That's what you're writing this game that you didn't watch?
Five out of six. I asked you how many of the parties.
Oh, I thought you said five parties. No, I didn't watch it. No kidding.
Two. I'm going to go two. You're going to give it that many?
Yeah. I mean, not the worst one of their losing streak, but certainly not particularly entertaining.
Well, what one? What one's been worse than this?
In this losing streak. That's a good question.
Because I'm about to give this a one, unless it relates to me otherwise. I wouldn't watch this again.
The only reason getting a one is because they're all blues again.
The Miami one was way worse.
Where Jason Taylor just absolutely dominated us and we had absolutely nothing.
We had 10 yards passing in the first half.
You bring up a valid point. I wonder what we rated that one zero.
That one might have got a one. Yeah.
We're not writing this down.
This is a little peg above that, but yeah.
Steve gave it a zero because I remember it was the first ever rating we did
and he went as low as possible on the rating scale.
And I was like, that's not how you just rate things.
So we may have given that one a one then. So this is probably like a one and a half.
I'll give it a two.
I'll give it a one and then just the, like not the ball of the Lombardi,
but like just the stub of it. Oh yeah. Okay.
Yeah. So like a one, not quite one and a half, but the bad half.
I'll do the opposite where I'll do one and the ball.
I'll go all the way to two.
So yeah, at the end of this game, it was probably closer than it should have been.
Broncos 24, Patriots 16.
See, at least we kind of kept fighting the whole game.
They rolled over in Miami.
Although there were some comments in the globe the next day from Brady.
After yesterday's loss to the Broncos, New England's fourth straight,
young Brady issued some challenges to his teammates.
Quote, I like the guys in this room. Don't get me wrong. So the 25 year old quarterback,
but it might need to be a little more important to them.
You look at these last four games, you see the other guys playing like it really means something.
You've got to figure out how much this means to people.
You've, and let's continue on the other page, got to play like your life is on the line.
Maybe guys aren't playing like it's their livelihood.
Certain guys play like that every play. They try to make their mark.
There's not trying hard enough. Yeah.
This is his like first full season as a starter.
25 years old calling out teammates like that.
I think it's a different media world back then though.
Maybe.
He says that now.
That's going on the talk radio, Skip Bayless and Shannon Sharper just going to shout out
each other about it for the next two weeks.
Shannon Sharpe, speak of the devil.
Yes. He is in this game.
Correct. Yeah.
He actually played really well.
Yeah. Look how far he's following to his current state.
Why do you do it?
Because he went from respected football player to like an absolute clown show.
He is the worst like halftime show guy. You can't understand him.
Yeah.
That whole halftime is just them all yelling over each other.
Well, he's just, he's just Skip Bayless now, right?
Oh yeah.
And that's the worst combination of personalities in all of sports.
I've never seen it.
Honestly.
Do yourself a favor.
Keep it that way.
Me either.
I'm going to go out and say I like calling Kyle Herd though.
Yeah.
Yep.
Yeah.
He said that in the last episode.
Give him another try.
I know he's kind of a fireflames hot take guy, but give him another try.
I don't like any of them.
Rodney Harrison said.
Yeah.
Mike Florio.
He doesn't really have any takes.
He's just like, here's the facts.
He's a nerd.
Yeah.
You can throw Mike Reese in there too.
Mike Reese is like very much a, here's a, well, where he's in take.
Well, that's not going to get you clicks, is it?
No.
Chris Sins.
Quick, Greg, quick.
Give us a hot take.
On I just did anything.
I don't care.
I just said Shannon Sharpe is the worst analyst in all the sports.
It's a pretty hot take.
All right.
I can clip that.
We'll put that.
We'll tag him in it too.
See what he says.
He's like, what the fuck?
This goddamn podcast calling me out.
I'm going to destroy them.
That would probably be the best thing that ever happened to us.
He really.
Oh, for sure.
Because then Troy Brad would know who we are and my life would be complete.
Yeah, that's true.
You want to do your, your weekly call out now at this point.
If anybody knows Troy Brown's introduced into this podcast.
Yes, please.
That would be amazing.
All right.
So that segment's over with what's next.
Remember for Christmas, my girlfriend got me a Malcolm Brown jersey because she knew I
loved the Troy Brown and Malcolm Brown was on the Patriots and she just like looked it up and said,
Oh, Brown, wait, really?
Yeah.
I have a Malcolm Brown jersey sitting in my closet.
That's a pretty deep cut.
That's, I mean, it's pretty legit if you were to wear that out, but.
Great idea.
Poor execution.
Yes, I agree.
Is that why you're not together anymore?
You don't know me.
Really?
You thought you knew me, but you don't.
Everybody who loves me knows how much I love Troy Brown because we're a package deal.
I mean, that's fair.
Well, except for her.
Well, what you going to do?
And we could talk about this game if you wanted.
Yeah, let's talk about the Broncos.
They had an awesome skill position group.
Yeah, Greg, you got any thoughts on this skill position group?
Well, you were busy watching like the 1998 highlights instead of this game, but.
The 1996 was a stacked roster for Denver.
So John, let's hear it.
Well, they won the Super Bowl that year, right?
Super relevant.
Was that 1996?
Yeah, probably.
That way.
Yeah.
This is the Mike Shanahan error.
This is a great in the midst of it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
He was 95 to 2008.
Is Mike Shanahan?
Something like that.
Do you think he's a good coach, Andy?
Yeah.
Okay.
Good.
A winning record against Belichick.
Did you see?
He's an excellent coach.
The commentator was saying that him and Brian Greasy don't talk at all.
Is that what they were saying?
Because I missed like what we were talking about.
I thought they were just talking about other coaches.
No, it was like Greasy and Shanahan don't talk.
And it all goes through Kubiak, who was OC at the time.
Oh, that makes more sense because I missed who they were talking about.
I mean, it doesn't make any sense.
Not even pleasantries?
No, nothing.
Yeah.
He's like the translator between them, right?
Yeah.
That's very Nazi Germany, you know?
Like follow your command, you know?
That's just following orders.
That's why I do that.
I don't know exactly.
That's a Nazi Germany thing.
It's more like a general military thing, perhaps.
What are you saying?
All military is equivalent of Nazis, Andy?
That's pretty suspect.
That's kind of what you're saying.
Yeah, it's hot take there, Andy.
Speaking of hot takes.
Yeah.
God.
What do you think of our defense budget in the United States, Andy?
I think it's a slash.
The Broncos defense wasn't nearly as good.
The only guy that I really recognize was Delta O'Neill.
Elfah.
Elfah.
What are you using?
I don't know.
Al Wolfe or John Mobley?
Delta.
Trevor Price?
Come on.
Trevor Price.
They were never like awesome, though, you know?
Trevor Price.
What about Mark Atwater?
He wasn't on that defense, Greg.
Sorry, I was watching the 1996.
John Elway?
Did you actually watch these highlights at all, Greg?
Because you missed the sweet Thai law interception.
Wait, interception or fumble recovery?
Yes.
High NT.
Both?
Yeah, both.
The prime time on YouTube is only two minutes and 30 seconds.
That's not very long.
Of which, like 45 seconds as I'm talking about the game.
So I didn't see many plays.
No, to answer your question.
Did he have a sweet?
Yeah, I watched it all two and a half minutes.
Yes, of course.
How dare I question your track record?
I'm also on profootballreference.com.
Shout out pro football reference.
Hell yeah.
That's a sweet site.
It's the best site in the world.
We wouldn't have nearly as much to talk about.
Yeah, between that and Wikipedia.
For the stat check, guys, the key.
I wish we had.
We want to talk about Mike Shanahan's stretch here.
Yeah.
So 95 is his first year as the head coach.
97 and 98, he wins back-to-back Super Bowls.
Right.
Salary cap, right?
I don't know.
So John Elway retired right after that one.
Right.
He only has one losing season until 2007.
So 12 years, he has one losing season.
That's he's a pretty damn good coach.
Yeah, especially with Elway retiring.
That's a tough transition.
Andy, I'm buying fucking greasy.
That was the only year.
It was 1999.
After coming off a Super Bowl championship, they were 6 and 10.
So I guess that's the floor for the Patriots this year.
I wonder because they set a stat in this game.
It was, I wrote it down, the last Super Bowl champion
to lose four straight games the next season
was the Denver Broncos.
So I'm wondering if it was that season.
That was the exact time.
Yeah, if you're going 6 and 10, you probably lost a bunch in a row.
And Mike Shanahan's record with running backs is just like hilarious.
Oh, yeah.
When did Clinton Portas get traded
for the first round picked the Redskins?
2003.
It has to be pretty soon because they had,
there was a Mike Anderson sighting in this
and they immediately went right to Mike Anderson
and he would crush it just as much as Portas.
Oh, good.
Give me some names, Greg.
Terrell Davis in the sixth round.
Orlando's Gary in the fourth round.
Oh, yeah.
Mike Anderson in the sixth round.
Portas in the second round.
Tatum Bell, second round.
Maurice Claret, that one didn't really work out.
I have his jersey.
Alfred Morris in the sixth round.
There were some other guys in there, I think,
but they're not on this list.
But there's, that's still solid.
And it was like one of those situations
where you could literally plug in anybody.
Anybody here.
That's what it felt like.
And this year's plug-in was Clinton Portas
because he was a rookie.
And the reason he was even starting was
Terrell Davis retired in the pre-season,
kind of like out of the blue.
Kind of like a ground thing.
And so they drafted.
So you said he was in the second round, Clinton Portas?
Wait, Terrell Davis just wasn't having fun anymore?
That's what it sounds like.
I mean, he wasn't winning Super Bowls over here, right?
Yeah, poor guy.
Terrell Davis is a pretty good story.
Six round or epic.
He put up like insane numbers.
Hall of Fame, right?
Just not very long though, right?
Right.
I think he was like one of those guys
where the Hall of Fame debate rages.
Yeah.
He had a really short career.
But I think he's in.
I don't remember.
Stat check.
Stat check.
He, I don't think so.
You know, I played 1995 to 2001.
Right.
That's what I mean.
He really only, he really only played four years.
Yeah.
Because he was injured for one of them, right?
He was injured from 1999, 2000 and 2001.
He never played more than eight games.
But 95, he had 1,100 yards, 1,500 yards, 1,700 yards, 2,000 yards.
Right.
So for like four years, he like lit the world on fire.
Yeah.
And then I remember us talking about it last season
because I don't know if he was playing or not.
But they were saying that, oh, I don't think he was playing.
No, he wasn't.
But they said he had some like unspecified leg injury
and that's all they knew or something like that.
It was something really kind of weird
in the way they talked about.
It was a little creepy.
That's kind of crazy.
You think about it.
Tom Brady never faced Terrell Davis.
That's true.
Despite playing the Broncos, at least his first two years.
We have migraines too, right?
I remember we had the migraine in the Super Bowl.
Oh, was that him?
Yeah.
I remember the stories and he couldn't see straight
when he scored one of his touchdowns.
Oh, that's crazy.
Crock, you imagine.
Like a regular headache and I'm like, I can't work today.
You don't get migraines.
That's what I'm saying.
I don't even get migraines until the day off of work.
Actual headaches and he's scoring touchdowns in the Super Bowl.
Yeah.
I wake up hungover and I'm like, I can't work today.
I guess.
That's what I was saying.
I wake up hungover and I just spend 80% of the day in the toilet
and then still just.
Still on the clock.
It's still on the clock.
Working from home, baby.
Yep.
I lost a mix of dollar.
I make a dime.
That's why I'm shitting on company time.
That's right.
No, I'm at the age now where I wake up and I pulled something just sleeping.
You got those.
You probably got night terrors, huh?
No.
Actually, one night I tried to roll over and so I pushed my hand down on the bed
to push myself over and it felt like I tore all the muscles in my in my pecs on one side.
Thank you.
Wait, can we bring this back to how terrible Shannon Sharp is?
Wait, wait, wait.
I want I had something to talk about on the sleeping situation.
All right.
I don't know if I want to hear this.
Sleepwalking.
You guys ever like read about sleepwalking?
I've heard of it.
Sure.
It's really interesting.
Like what's what's going on with sleepwalking?
Can we get back to how terrible Shannon Sharp is?
Don't you think it's weird that you can like stand up and walk around while you're asleep?
That doesn't there's a peak your interest at all.
Right.
You can like blow your load while you're sleeping.
Walking is just regular.
Because you're asleep.
If you take Ambien, that does some weird shit.
Yeah, you know, people have like got acquitted for murder or sexual assault
by claiming that they were sleepwalking.
I can see that.
I used to work with a buddy who took Ambien, went to sleep and woke up
and he had somehow taught himself how to use a 3D modeling program and 3D modeled the duck.
And he went back in and he didn't know how to do it.
He doesn't know how to use the program, but somehow in his sleep managed to do it.
Yeah, I listened to a podcast on sleepwalking the other day.
That's why it's in my mind.
Shout out other podcasts.
Yeah.
Can we shout out a podcast here?
Free ad for stuff you should know.
You ever listen to that one?
I've heard that one.
Yeah.
You would love it, Andy.
That's that's your sense of humor.
Oh, you think so?
Yeah.
What are you trying to say?
I don't know.
They're just kind of like nerds, but they're fuck you.
Josh, please talk about how shitty Shannon Sharp is.
Yes, Steve, give me your Shannon Sharp take.
Is he better or worse than the Jets?
Uh, I think it's worse than the Jets, regardless.
When he scores that touchdown and you know, go with this.
So he scores his touchdown.
It's actually a pretty nice play.
Kind of tippy tapped his toes in the back of the end zone.
And then like he goes to his shoes and like the tongue of the shoe.
He like peels it off and has some writing on there,
but he like can't peel it off.
It takes him five fucking minutes.
And it takes him two tries.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I don't remember what was said on the cameras.
Can't read it.
Yeah.
It's like seven point five.
I don't remember what was on there.
No, because it wasn't even like it was almost like
supposed to be part of his name, but it wasn't.
Yeah.
It was like the greatest to ever do it or something just,
you know, super douchey like that though.
Yeah.
He's like Terrell Owens, but just shitty.
Yeah.
That's like funny and trying to beat Terrell Owens,
but he wasn't good at it.
When was the Joe Horn thing?
That would have been before this.
The Joe Horn Sharpie thing.
Stat check.
I got you guys.
Joe Horn.
Because that will like kick this off.
Terrell Owens.
No, no, Terrell Owens Sharpie did.
Didn't Joe Horn start this?
He did the phone in the.
Yeah.
Well, speaking of that one too, that was 2003.
Interesting.
So it's right in the middle of all this.
So this is before this.
Yeah.
Well, Terrell Owens.
What?
The Sharpie was the first one?
That's, don't ask, don't ask that bitch.
Well, 2002.
Huh.
So this is 2002 as well.
October 2002, which is it.
So this is.
Before all that.
This game happened at the same time of October.
Yeah.
No.
So it's probably like the week before.
Dude, that, you know, always bothered me about that.
Joe Horn thing is when he takes the phone out and he goes and put it up,
up into his ear and it's a flip phone and it's like flipped down.
And then he has to re flip it open.
I don't know why it's just one of those things that like.
Yeah, I just didn't quite pull it off right.
Yeah.
It gives me the heebie-jeebies.
Yeah.
I'm with it.
Terrell Owens is the best to ever do it.
That's what I'm saying.
And Shannon Sharp was the worst to ever do it.
His execution was shit.
It's all about the execution.
Yeah.
Like the popcorn in the face thing.
Remember that?
Oh, yeah, that's great.
Well, there's someone that cheerleader too.
The Pompoms.
Yeah, grab the Pompoms.
The kneeling on the Dallas star.
Oh, yeah.
We got tackled for it.
This is this was like peak celebration time.
That's what I'm saying.
And then Hoja Sinko had like,
did some dumb shit too.
Who was like working out in their driveway doing sit-ups?
That was Tio.
That's my quarterback.
It's my quarterback.
It's my teammate.
I love that.
He's the most like newsworthy player in the NFL for.
I love Tio.
Hate Shannon Sharp.
Hall of Fame or Tio?
Is he in the Hall of Fame?
No, they won't put him in there because he's of his antics,
which is so ridiculous.
That is ridiculous.
He was a beast.
He was like Anquan Bolden, but better.
Yeah.
His numbers are like second best ever from outside of Jerry Rice.
He was second best.
Why does he ever?
Statistically speaking of Randy Moss is like,
I think a better receiver,
but he didn't have as many longevity that Tio did.
Say the same about Megatron.
Yeah.
Speaking of assholes, Andy,
how would you think of the commentators?
Uh, I honestly wasn't paying attention.
They were the usual.
What the fuck was it?
Um, I don't even write them down because it was, uh,
Phil and Greg Gumbel.
Yeah, Phil Sims.
They did reference getting pegged by a snowball last time
they're in this game.
Yeah.
I was skipping through it a bit.
It was at the very end of the game
when the Patriots fans are streaming out.
Yeah.
After the Broncos had a big pass play, he said,
and he's like, oh, one of them does throw a snowball at me
on their way out.
Fuck you, Phil Sims.
Also, Greg Gumbel.
No.
You like him?
Yeah, he's fine.
Wayne Brady makes Greg Gumbel look like Malcolm X.
Shout out to Phil.
Which is ridiculous.
Cause Phil Sims was calling Greg Gumbel pumpkin.
No, pumpkin.
Yeah.
No, he's like, you can't call
me pumpkin.
He's like, oh, I didn't call you pumpkin.
I called you pumpkin.
And then he spells it.
Yeah.
And I wrote this down.
P N K I N.
P N K I N.
Wait, what?
You forgot the U clearly, you know, like pumpkin,
but that just sounds like a real term of endearment to me.
Yeah.
I, uh, that was about the time where I started skipping forward.
That was the first quarter.
Yeah, exactly.
And they were like measuring a first down or something like that.
Yep.
Boys, there's shit going on.
Fuck about your pumpkin.
I had someone apply to a job at my office and their
the email address on their resume was like something like
banana pudding at yahoo.com.
Oh, I have a way better one.
Oh, let's hear it, Steve.
So like we were transitioning one golf course to another
management company, like a small one in Michigan.
And the dude's, um, email was, uh, his name was like
Brad Gorn or something like that.
And his name was Gorn dog 69.
Yeah.
Like hotmail.
He's like, I was like, who do you want me to give Facebook access to?
He's like, yeah, I can give it to my email.
Gorn dog 16.
I was like, where at work, bro?
Do you don't have like a work email?
Yeah.
Do you know Gmail Gorn?
They're free.
You know, I don't know if you knew that.
I love the 69 at the end.
It was the best.
Should have been Gorn star or Gorn.
There's a way you can go with it.
A lot of ways you can go with it.
Yeah.
Good Lord.
Speaking of pornography, Willie McGinnis in this game made my pants tight.
You know what I had a bunch of flashbacks to?
A Donta high tower in the Seahawks Super Bowl.
Oh, yeah?
Because he had an, uh, well, Teddy actually had that running play hit,
but there was actually some very similar Donta high tower plays,
maybe between Teddy and Willie.
Because Teddy like read the whole line, goal line, run play,
same direction as Marshawn Lynch was going,
and then just bam, make the most clean tackle of all time.
When you thought he was like, Clinton Porter is just going to walk in.
Yep.
And then Willie did the whole like line up wide that Donta did in the Atlanta Super Bowl.
Oh, yeah.
He had the strip sack.
He like lined out wide and just blew right by the running back
because he like just misread it.
And he didn't actually get the phone ball, unfortunately.
No.
He almost did.
Brian Greasy paid for that play.
Oh, yeah.
I think that moved them, that sack moved them out of field goal range,
or they missed a long field goal because of it after that.
Yep.
So that's not giving it to Lombardi's.
There were some like, I was like flashing back to Super Bowls to this game.
So that's right there for that, I guess.
This is, it didn't remind me of any, any Super Bowls.
There were some good plays.
I think my favorite Willie McGinnis play was, um,
when Denver tried to reverse and he just saw it come in the entire way.
Yeah.
He just didn't chase after the play and just stood there and waited for the guy on the
reverse and he just like ran straight at him.
It's Ashley LeLay.
Yes, it was.
From Hawaii.
Great name.
That's a sick name.
Yeah.
That is a sick name.
On the other hand, offensive line in this game,
how many Lombardi's do they get?
Negative one.
I think in this game, you would hit them with a Lombardi for there.
Like there was, they had like one drive.
Wrong hand.
Yeah.
Just hit him with that, put some more dens in it because this was, this was bad.
There was two sacks in the first seven plays, including our, our punt.
Yeah.
They had four sacks all on third down.
Yeah.
I think the third downs was, was the tail of this game.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Even Belichick said that at like the halftime interview when,
back when he used to talk to reporters at halftime.
Right.
Yeah.
Who she's crazy to see sometimes they'll be like, oh yeah,
Belichick says more than one word.
Right.
Yeah.
Yeah, she said something.
Yeah, we're like, oh, for at least in the first half, they were, oh,
for four or five or six or something.
I don't remember what play it was, but I have a note from the third quarter says,
wow, a third down stop.
Yeah.
The Broncos went six for six on their first, in the first half on third down conversions,
and then went over three after that.
I think the only tie, the only one they converted in the second half
was the long ball right after two minute warning to seal it, the 40 yard pass.
Which was a ball as you call.
If they hadn't turned it over the twice in the first half,
it would have been even more blowout, but that tie lot pick was sick.
Yeah.
It was.
I mean, he definitely committed PI, but you know, not back then.
I think he did it on every, well, the thing is,
because there was another interception later on in the game that got overturned.
That was in the fourth quarter.
Malloy had the interception in the end zone, but they called tie law for
defensive holding, which probably should have been passing appearance,
but it was almost exactly the same as all the other holding he'd been doing throughout the game.
It's crazy to watch defensive backs with Sebers back, yeah, in 2002.
There's a lot of contact.
Oh my God.
It's crazy.
Every single play is a penalty.
Yeah.
And it would be these days.
But yeah, this first quarter was, the fact that it was only seven,
nothing Broncos at the end of it was bad, although it was basically 14 nothing
because Denver scored in the first play of the second quarter.
Let's go list off some other shit that sucked.
Tom Brady throwing a triple coverage INT.
Deion Branch getting tackled by the punter on an awesome punt return.
I'll give him that one.
The end of the third quarter where Tom Brady doesn't realize the clock is running out
and he's looking at the game clock.
Very odd Brady like.
Oh yeah.
Deion Branch fumbling the kickoff.
Yeah, I don't think it'd be fair.
He absolutely got blown up on that.
Yeah.
But that was so this is so their first drive noon.
They get the ball to start the game.
Brady gets sacked on third down.
They go three and out.
They punt.
The punt was like 20 something yards.
Brutal.
Yeah.
Denver drives straight down, scores a touchdown.
And then pigs get the ball back.
Branch gets hit on the kickoff, recovers it.
I don't know if he recovers or the pigs recover it.
Then they try their usual end around to Troy Brown that always works
and that goes for negative yards.
And then the next play, Brady gets sacked again and then they punt.
And Denver actually fumbled that punt, but they recovered it.
And then the next play was the deep ball that Ty Law picked off.
Like this was a shit show to start.
Yeah.
Absolute shit show.
Delto and Neil got blown up on that poor guy.
Delto and Neil does not know.
He does not know fair catch return puns.
Yeah.
Because well, the first one, he did get a fair catch and he got lit up by his own guy.
Yeah.
Because the blocker just like who was blocking the gunner just like ran into him and like
looked like Delto and he was like seriously hurt.
And the second one, there's nobody near him except for Patriots.
And he doesn't call a fair catch and gets lit the fuck up again.
And then I think from then on, he didn't return a punt.
He just let them all bounce over his head, didn't he?
That's smart because we couldn't even stop him from going in the end zone anyways.
Or make a gun more than 20 yards.
Yeah.
Just not great.
So remember how we talked like in the playoffs about the Patriots playing
in all three facets.
This was like exactly the opposite.
Oh yeah.
And nobody covering Ed McCaffrey.
Oh God.
I always loved Ed McCaffrey.
The original McCaffrey.
Yeah, that's true.
Are they related?
Wait.
Yeah.
That's a song.
Who's the other McCaffrey?
Christian McCaffrey.
Oh yeah.
See you, baby.
That's Ed's son.
Run CMC.
No, it's not.
Because it is.
Is it really?
Yes.
Stack check.
I'll check it, but I'm like pretty sure.
I did not know Christian McCaffrey is Ed McCaffrey's son.
Yeah.
Why do you think he's so good at football?
That, I mean, it makes a shitload of sense now that I think about it.
But I did not know that.
Yeah.
Christian McCaffrey, born in Colorado, the son of former Stanford NFL wide receiver Ed McCaffrey.
Wow.
And former Stanford soccer star Lisa McCaffrey.
Oh, so this kid had a maid.
Yeah.
That's awesome.
He's a blue blood.
Yeah.
Wow.
I already liked Christian McCaffrey.
Now I like him.
Double.
I like him less.
Fuck Ed McCaffrey.
What?
No, Ed McCaffrey was the shit.
No, fuck that.
He always.
He was like Ricky Pro, but not a douche.
How do you know?
I don't know.
He just seemed like less of a douche.
Ricky Pro, like, was super butthurt about all these Super Bowls this time of year.
Ed McCaffrey just fucking did his job.
Ed McCaffrey's got the longest neck in football.
No, there was a cornerback for Merton Hanks.
Yes.
Merton Hanks.
Dude, it's funny you bring that up because I don't even know who you're talking about.
Google Merton Hanks.
The funky chicken dance.
Dude, I've been waiting to say this, actually, because I just watched a video.
Right.
Yeah.
If you're at home right now, listen to this Google Merton Hanks funky chicken dance.
And it's some of the funny shit you've ever seen because I started looking into the best
celebrations and this is on the list.
And I was like, oh, fuck, yeah, I forgot about that.
Oh, my God.
His head moves separately from his body.
Oh, it's on a loop.
I found the gift.
All right, we're posting this gift.
He's a GV.
This is amazing.
This is amazing.
I think Steve found it.
Oh, my God.
Shit.
I didn't know this guy existed.
You don't remember this?
I like I do.
I did.
I forgot how good he was at defensive back.
I thought he was like a receiver or something.
But I forgot how good this was.
Number 36 for the 49ers.
The the icky shuffle, too.
That was like a legend.
Yeah.
Obviously, Billy White.
He scored goals in soccer.
I used to be icky shuffle.
That's my favorite one.
So you never did it.
I did it like rec soccer.
Oh, there's it.
I saw a highlight video of him defending Troy Brown.
What?
Yeah.
I bet I didn't.
Burn Hanks is good, too.
Who else would be number 80 on the Patriots
and like the old school?
Patriot Pat Irving Fryer, maybe?
Yeah.
I returned punts.
Yeah.
He was a good player.
He was like a pro bowler, wasn't he?
I'll stat check that.
Yeah.
He's a four time pro bowler.
First time all pro.
What?
Yeah.
He had four straight seasons as a pro bowler.
Can't believe I never even heard of this guy.
This is awesome.
I mean, he's 91 to 99.
So yeah, that was like my 400 years.
Yeah.
That's probably like the good
49ers back then.
Yeah.
That lands up at the end of the good 49ers.
Troy.
I need to stop watching it.
We're getting away off topic.
How did he even come up?
I don't even know how we got on him.
Long necks.
Yeah.
Oh, that's right.
Yeah.
That's my cavalry.
You got nothing on them.
Right.
Hanks.
Speaking of long necks, I just listened to a podcast on dinosaurs.
Just kidding.
So this is what happens when the Patriots are losing.
Could you imagine?
So I know we've joked about it before
about doing a Browns on Browns podcast, the spin-off,
where we do this book with the Browns.
And it would be awful because they don't ever win the games.
Yeah.
You just got to talk about the humor and things, you know?
I guess so.
Although I was thinking.
I do feel.
We could change it just a little bit.
And we could do Browns on Browns on Browns
and only talk about players with the last name Brown
who play for the Browns.
That's going to be a very short podcast.
It's all when you use one episode, bud.
Why don't we just do Jim Browns with the last name Brown?
Jim Brown.
You already got one, Steve.
It's like on that.
Wait, we could do a whole episode on him alone.
Yeah.
Have you ever heard of him?
He's only one of the best running backs to ever play.
Dickhead.
We can do Browns on Browns and just do different NFL players.
Browns on Browns on Browns.
We can do any sport.
We can do any sport.
Nah, Browns on Browns on Browns.
And we record all of them while we're sitting on the toilet.
Browns on Browns on Browns on Browns.
If that gets Troy Brown to notice me, then yes, I'm in.
Too bad he never played with the Browns.
I guess we can't talk about him.
Well, we can just talk about any athlete with the last name Brown.
That's true.
So there's another thing on here of the list of celebrations.
Steve Smith doing a row the boat after he scored against the Vikings
the same year that they got caught in that that love scandal.
That's some good trolling right there.
That's clever.
The Randy Moss mooning one is pretty sweet, too.
Yeah.
That one, like I didn't really understand.
I mean, it's not that clever.
I think the best part was that Joe Buck also pissed about it.
Well, no, the reason he did it was because
the opposing team would always get mooned by the fans,
like the Green Bay Packer fans.
Yeah, they're either entering or leaving.
So he was doing it back to him.
And it's like, I don't know.
That's what makes it cool.
It's like C plus.
I would have liked it more if he'd actually butt sit on their ass.
If he got his butt cheeks out, that would have been legendary.
Oh, he pulled the legendary.
Yeah.
I mean, what would they do?
I don't know.
They showed Janet Jackson's nipple on TV.
I mean, she got away scot free.
I mean, he probably would have killed Joe Buck.
So do you?
Is that attempted dance?
Joe Buck commit suicide live on air.
He would have had a heart attack at the very least.
I think nudity should be encouraged personally.
I bet you do.
You know, I'm very European in that way.
I've seen you.
Yeah, let's take our dicks out.
Let's take our tits out and let's have ourselves
a good old time.
You score a Super Bowl.
You want to let your fucking dick hang around?
You go ahead and do that.
All right.
Penis high fives.
No.
Okay.
Pumpkin.
Do mushroom taps.
No.
Nice throw, Brady.
Yeah.
Nice catch, Randy.
Just like it.
Mashed.
Mashed.
Mashed cockheads together.
Oh, Lord.
How do we end up here?
I don't know.
Maybe we don't have we knew this week.
We knew this was going to happen before we get record.
2002 has been rough.
I'm not going to lie.
I feel that it's also the dog days of quarantine.
I think that is part to do with it.
Yeah, that's true, too.
You know, if it feels fitting, though, doesn't it?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Suffering this season while suffering through quarantine.
That's true.
I feel every Patriots fan should watch these games off.
I agree.
Because like if this is the longest losing streak,
it's which is crazy to think about.
It's 2002.
It's 2020 now.
Right.
Right.
It's like 18 years ago.
They will not lose more than three games in a row from here on out.
That's crazy.
And everyone thinks that like it's so expecting of it,
but it wasn't like that all the time, you know?
At this point in our lives, when we were little kids,
we were like, oh, here we go again.
Yeah.
Well, thank God we won that one Super Bowl, you know?
Yeah.
They could never take that one away from us.
Yeah.
Once is what Eagles fans feel like.
See, I never even got our one Super Bowl.
I don't remember any of these games.
It's got to be more like Giants fans.
Yeah, maybe.
Because like Eli Manning is shit.
I meant to bring this up earlier.
Like Trell Davis burned bright for five years.
And Eli Manning was a dimwit motherfucker, dumbass, for like 20.
Which would you rather have?
Like the bright star Trell Davis or just Eli Manning
plodding along through as many interceptions as he does touchdowns for 15, 20 years?
Oh, you mean two times Super Bowl winner?
Yeah, every so often gets a little brightness and that's it.
Eli Manning is the most frustrating quarterback I've ever watched play football.
He's just not good.
I feel like the way he's Mark Sanchez out there.
No, he's more frustrating because when he's out there, I feel like
first down, second down, he makes horrendous decisions
and like almost gets picked off both the times or something bad.
Like he gets sacked or he accidentally fumbles the ball,
but it was called an incompletion sort of bullshit.
Now, third down, he just hucks up a Hail Mary
and his super talented wide receivers manage to come down with it.
And then he just repeat that over and over again until he scores or
he forgets to breathe and stops breathing because, you know,
he has to be reminded of that sort of thing.
And they end up having to punt.
There's like quarterbacks.
I agree with that take.
I agree with that take.
His face is so dumb.
Like anytime they zoom in on him, he doesn't.
You look like he knows what he's doing.
But we can pull together a list of quarterbacks where like you're just
waiting for the other shoe to drop and then throw a stupid pick.
Yeah. Flacco, Tana Hill, Sanchez.
Tana Hill.
Yeah, dude, he's not good.
We'll see.
He's not.
Titans are going to regret that contract.
Super bad.
Put it on the record.
Yeah, I just did.
What do you want me to do?
Like send a certified letter to the Titans?
I want.
Let's timestamp this in the episode here and then let's do weekly updates
when the season starts.
Says the guy who's not editing the podcast.
I don't want to do it.
That's fine.
You can timestamp your heart out.
Andy, you signed up for this.
Okay.
Me and Steve are the talent.
Who is that what you are?
I'm going to throw it.
I'm going to throw another name in there.
Josh Allen.
Don't you dare?
Josh Allen.
Yeah.
No, he's the man.
You're just waiting for him to make another mistake though.
That's true.
I don't think you watch enough.
Josh Allen.
He doesn't make good decisions.
He has build out a ton because he can run.
And you can throw a deep ball.
Well, until he tries to run on the Patriots and gets absolutely
fucking blown up and knocked out of the game.
That was a dirty hit.
No, it wasn't.
Yeah, it was.
He's a runner.
Clean.
Oh, surprise, surprise.
The Patriots fan doesn't think that was a dirty hit.
Surprise.
Surprise.
Oh, so what does that mean?
We've already talked about this in this podcast before, Greg.
And I brought up that Tom Brady quote about the Nate Clemens hit.
And what he said after it, we've already been down this road, bro.
Exactly.
And I think we all agree that you guys see everything
through the lens of a fan and that you don't, you're not subjective.
Objective.
Hey, Greg, Greg, how does that fence post field?
Lodge that far up your asshole.
Oh, so now I have to pick a side of the fence, Andy.
No, but you can't be fucking sitting up there looking down
on the rest of us because you're not going to pick a side.
How do you why?
Because because everything in life has nuance.
Why do you think my face looks like this, Andy?
That's the duality of man.
I told you it was an art exhibit.
That explains my philosophy on life.
And God damn it.
I'm riding that fence because that's how I feel about things.
Yeah.
Because you can't make a decision or pick a side.
No, because there's nuances to everything.
Who are you voting for this November?
I'm an independent, a registered independent.
And you know what?
Ron Paul has some really party.
I'm voting against the system as a whole.
I am.
I know.
Don't get me all riled up.
You know what?
Riled me up.
What's that?
I'm moving some of our cornerbacks on these.
Otis Smith and Terrence Wheatley.
Like the third quarterback, even this point in the second
quarterback was a liability on the pages this time.
It's starting to show up.
Also, the fact that they can't get any pressure on the
quarterback to even on blitzes, they all get picked up.
Yeah.
When you're giving Brian greasy enough time to make
completions, it's not great.
Or like Otis Smith matched up against Ed McCaffrey was just.
I mean, you put Tom Brady behind the center instead of
Brian Greasy, you would have been 56 and nothing.
Did Rod the Bod play in this game?
Yes.
He actually played really well, too.
And I think he underrated wide receiver.
Way underrated.
Yeah.
But every time he caught the ball, he would pretend to
juke and then just run straight at the defender, just
lower his head and get another three or four yards.
It's him and Ty.
Rod was definitely the number one at this time.
Yeah.
And they they were battling all game.
It was a great play.
And then Brian Greasy finally figured it out and just
started looking at Ed McCaffrey every snap because.
Oh, this could be wide open.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Those crossing routes every time.
Oh, I got another running Mike Shanahan running
back name for you.
Ruben drones.
Remember?
He's a fullback, right?
Was he?
Yeah, he's in this game.
He was in this game.
He was actually, yeah.
Ruben, maybe he was a fullback then, yeah.
Pretty sure.
Is that checked?
All right.
What do you got for play of the game, Greg?
Ty Law's interception.
You should definitely Google it because it's a good
interception.
It's great.
It'll be on the website.
There you go.
What's that website, Annie?
Page is dynasty.info.
This is a slash game slash 73.
Is there an apostrophe?
What?
No.
Like Patriots.
I mean, it's their dynasty, right?
And the possessed.
Oh, Lord.
You try with an apostrophe and get back to me.
Yeah.
That goes.
Although a lot of web website address,
this do have apostrophes.
So I get where Greg is coming from on this.
Suck it, Andy.
They don't though.
They don't.
I'm trying to go Cabela's.
I can't do it.
There's no such thing.
How do I get to it, Andy?
I go to plays list of all games.
Game search.
Dude, this is a good website.
I've never been on here.
Fuck you.
It's too busy to listen to other podcasts.
See, fuck.
Right.
You should check out the Brady page.
It has every Tom Brady touchdown.
Ooh.
With now.
Gifts of each play.
Go watch this Tyler interception, Greg.
Week 8.
I'm there right now.
This is dope.
Wait, you don't have the highlights.
Like, please.
Oh, yes, you do.
It's under highlights.
I don't have that one up yet, though.
Brady to Fourier.
This is my second play of the game here.
No, this is actually my play of the game.
Is it?
Yeah.
Because if you watch this highlight, Greg,
you'll notice watch Troy Brown in this.
They all collapse on Troy, leaving Fourier wide open.
Is Troy at the top of the screen or the bottom?
He's at the bottom.
So Troy runs like a curl route right before the end zone.
And Fourier runs like a four guys on him.
Yep.
And everyone's like, yeah, it's going to Troy Brown.
And then Fourier is legit wide, wide open.
My play of the game is Antoine Smith's rushing touchdown,
which we haven't said a lot this year on this podcast
because it is only his second touchdown run of the season.
Tough.
Yep.
And he tweaked his knee, I think, on this play.
Because when he was dragging a guy
and the guy like rolled up the back of his leg.
Real bad.
But that and the play before where he kind of ran to the left side
and then snaked his way all the way back to the right
and picked up like 10 or 15 yards.
It was like one drive where they could run the ball
and they just ran it all the way in the touchdown.
Yeah.
That was the one.
Yeah.
Can't wait for Corey Dillon to show up.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, Antoine was still pretty good,
but he wasn't as good as I remember him being, I think.
He was better last year.
He was.
This year, he had more chance last year.
True.
Yeah.
And I feel like he started throwing the ball a lot more this year.
Yeah.
And I think part of it you can put on the offensive line too.
Like there's no time,
but they're not getting any push off the ball
or anything like that.
It felt almost like this 2019 season
where Sony got a whole bunch of shit.
Even though it's tough to say it's Sony's fault.
Yeah.
Right.
Like he wasn't breaking a lot of tackles,
but he was also had two guys on him
as soon as he got the handoff every play.
So.
And they had the injuries.
Same idea too.
They had a bunch of injuries in the offensive line.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's been a bit of a carousel.
Steve Zareel, Sony, Michelle, Stan.
I like Sony, Michelle.
I'm a big Sony guy.
I think he was overdrafted.
Well, if he got picked one pick later,
you would have said,
oh, he's the second round running back.
He's doing pretty good.
Right.
No, I wouldn't.
If you're drafting a running back
in the first or second round these days,
they better be like Alvin, Kamara.
I agree.
He got to start catching the ball.
Yeah.
But if he starts grabbing balls.
Yeah, James, wait for that.
Well, like the problem is,
when you have Sony in there, it's definitely run.
Grabbing balls.
Dirty girl.
All right.
Anything else?
You want to do best and worst?
No.
Just worst.
I already talked about all my worst.
I may pick one of them.
Pick one.
The triple coverage.
I and T as soon as he threw it,
I said, oh, Lord, and then of course,
it's interception.
Oh, Lordy.
Oh, Lord.
All right.
No, best.
I mean, obviously,
obviously Troy Brown getting Christian Fourier touchdown.
Okay.
That shit doesn't show up in the stat sheet.
But you know who loves that?
Bill Belichick.
Fucking right.
He does.
Well, I mean, is that a good play by Troy Brown
or a bad play by the defense?
Both.
The bad defense because of the good play of Troy Brown.
What do you mean?
He just ran the route he was supposed to.
No.
Yeah.
But he's been so good running routes
and catching balls in that area.
But it's a previously good play.
It's not actually a good play on this play.
All right.
Don't sit here and tell me any negative things about Troy Brown.
You can get the fuck out of here with that goddamn attitude.
Watch the real fuck.
Watch the whole fucking game.
Then come talk to me.
Yeah.
Did you see Troy Brown's fumble in the third quarter?
Nope.
Yeah, maybe you should watch the game.
Clack that out of my memory.
Yeah.
Didn't he recover it?
Yeah, he did.
Yeah.
I just made that up.
I just made that up.
I just made that up.
I just made that up.
Yeah, he didn't even fumble at all.
Well, he did, but he jumped right on it.
Did he?
He fumbled in the third quarter?
I don't know if it was the third quarter,
but he did drop the one that he caught.
Steve, Steve, Steve.
Greg, Greg, Greg, that.
He was showing this guy to the dartboard.
Rod Smith had 10 targets.
Seven catches, 54 yards.
Troy Brown, nine targets.
Seven catches, 59 yards.
Ed McCaffrey was eight for 116.
The next New England Patriot, David Patton,
five targets, zero catches, zero yards.
Yeah, he had a tough game.
Let's see who this was not good.
Dion Branch, two targets, zero catches, zero yards.
So the only wide receiver that the Patriots had
who caught a pass was Troy Brown.
And he caught 700.
So Edidick, Greg Brown is what I'm trying to say.
My best of the game is Clinton Portis.
He's got 26 carries for a buck, 11 and two touchdowns.
That was a pretty impressive game from him.
It wasn't like.
Wouldn't you agree?
No, it was.
No, we've been watching.
Oh, imagine that.
No, we've been watching a lot of other running backs
absolutely carve the Patriots up before this.
And it didn't feel like he was 100 yard rushing.
I was surprised when they showed the stat that he was.
Well, if he was my starting fantasy running back,
I'd be pretty happy with this performance.
Yeah.
Would you have watched the game if he was just.
I don't think you would have though,
because back then running backs would generate
a lot more yards than that.
Two tutties.
I mean, you're talking how much did
a Lydian Tomlinson and Priest Holmes have on the Patriots?
You're expecting a real big day.
Yeah.
But he still got his 100 and two touchdowns.
So yeah, I'd be happy with that.
I'm not saying it's a bad day, but I don't know.
My second star is Ed McCaffrey.
Eight catches on eight targets for one 16.
Yeah, Otis had nothing for him.
You know who you should tell that to?
The fucking Broncos podcast you're on.
Well, you know what, Andy?
If you want to expand the appeal of this of this podcast,
maybe we should, you know.
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
Why the fuck we're trying to expand the appeal?
It's 2002 week seven on a four game losing streak.
Week eight, 2007 was the bi-week.
I think this is coming off a bye, by the way,
because like Michael Jordan said,
like conservatives by sneakers, too,
or something I'm paraphrasing.
And yeah, you're trying to sell it to everybody.
No, I'm not.
We have our niche.
If we're going to sell to everybody,
this would be called like the NFL Dynasty podcast,
but it's not.
It's the Patriots fucking Dynasty podcast.
For all of us, everybody, it'd be Browns on Browns.
All you listeners out there that are hate listening to this.
I'm on your side.
Nobody is hate listen to this crack.
Dude, I hate listen to sports all the time.
Felgar and Maz.
I've the only times I've ever listened to it
is because they hate them.
Yeah, I do hate read like Jets subreddits.
So, you know, let's let's actually reach out
and see if anybody hate listens to us.
If you do, let us know on Twitter or Facebook.
That's what I hate about like Felgar and Maz,
is they both have the same opinions on everything.
Yeah.
So, you're just trying to be contrarian
just to mix it up a bit, is that what you're saying?
Yeah, exactly.
We don't hold these thoughts at all.
Eddie, Eddie, you fucking surprise.
Yeah.
You've known this kid for how long?
I guess I just thought the better of him, but no.
Why would you think Greg has any good motivations at all
or is nice or is rational or is cool or has a nice thought or is.
Yeah, smart.
That's the duality of human nature, though, you know,
like me and you and you are sitting over here
like loving the Patriots and Greg over there
is just being a fucking douche.
There it is.
You guys just aren't as well-rounded as me.
Well, that's what it is.
You could you could learn a thing or two about my from my face, Steve.
Like what?
You know what?
I'm going to start saying I'm going to send you pictures
before I go to bed every night of my face.
Just remind me when you wake up
that you need to consider the duality of man.
You know, here's a word for you.
Here's a word for you that it's the word of the week.
And the word is enmity.
E-N-M-I-T-Y.
And that's what you learn from Greg's face.
Emnity.
Yeah.
E-M-E-N-M.
E-N-M.
Yeah, it's a tough one to say.
Enmity.
Enmity.
Oh, that is tough one to say.
Yeah.
The state or feeling of being actively oppressed
or hostile to someone or something.
Opposed, but yes.
It's basically like appear unadulterated hate towards something.
That's Greg and Bill Bell check.
That's how you feel about me.
No, that's how you feel about Bill Bell.
Yeah, that's what your face gives off to the world.
I don't know.
I think people either hate it or love it
because it's got a little bit of everything.
You know, like some chicks like like beard guy,
some chicks like clean shave,
well, bada bing, bada boom.
Check out this fucking side.
One chick sitting on each side of you, right?
Talking about cross appeal.
No.
I'm hitting that strip club, bringing questionnaires.
What?
Bringing a questionnaire to the strip club, Ennity,
that says, do you like beards or not?
I don't know.
I'm not.
I actually don't want to get into the strippers
instead of money.
I take it back.
I don't want an explanation.
Oh, per usualist.
It's like a weird turn.
So my best was Tom Brady wearing gloves on both hands
because that was fucking goofy of shit.
Oh, double glove in it.
That's very tiny bridge water of them.
Right.
He the commentator isn't talking about that.
Oh, once you go gloves, you don't go back.
I do that for golf sometimes.
Cool.
Yeah.
So does I think it helps like why only wear one?
And why not wear it when you putt?
Yeah.
When would I when would I ever want less stick?
You know what you should really do?
Wear boxing gloves.
That's that's really what helps.
Well, no, those are too clumsy, Steve.
Don't be ridiculous.
Hockey gloves.
Hockey gloves don't work.
It's a stick lacrosse gloves.
You should just wear wide receiver gloves.
The Jerry Rice stick them gloves.
That's right.
Drone shade.
Don't worry about it.
My worst, I think, has been great performance.
I'm this podcast that I I agree.
You know why?
Because I can see the other sides of things.
Andy, OK, I agree.
I'm introspective.
There's a word.
Google it.
I am PR.
Oh, speaking.
He can't smell it.
I know.
Well, well.
You want to see my fucking literature?
S.A.T. score.
It'll bully tits off.
He's doing it right now.
As he says all this, it's fine.
You'll spell it for us in a second.
Yeah, I don't remember what the S.A.T. was out of.
But mine was a fucking very high score
for reading and literature.
I still have my S.A.T. scores.
But they're higher.
Yeah, I bet you did poorly on humility.
It's not a score.
It should be.
Yeah.
Oh, also a play of no Al Wilson in this game
playing with a broken finger.
Broken middle finger.
Yeah, again, I didn't know anyone in the Broncos defense.
They had such generic names.
Dude, Al Wilson was good.
Yeah.
He was the pro bowler on the team.
Him and.
So generic.
Like Delta O'Neill.
That'll stick in my mind.
That's fair.
I was going to say, I thought you were using that
as an example of generic.
No.
Tyrone Anderson.
Tyrone Paul.
Smith.
Clinton Portis.
Did Paul play for the Pats?
Yes.
Pretty sure he did.
He would join the Patriots the following season.
Well, how about that?
Can't beat him.
Join him.
Or if you can beat him, join him anyway.
Yeah, nobody have nobody have no.
Yeah, right, Steve.
I was like, OK, with not noting Tyrone Paul, didn't he suck?
Not really.
We'll find out.
Tune in next year.
Yeah.
Well, I mean, if we have anybody left at this point,
I suppose we should thank them for listening this far.

Do you want me to send you some photos?
Yes, Greg, you have to send one like every week
so you can see the progression.
I'm addicted to selfies now.
That sounds right.
You have addictive personality.
This is true.
I've I honestly like I probably before I started doing this with my beard.
I don't think like I ever took a selfie maybe like once or twice.
I take one every night.
Seriously?
Are you going to put it all together?
It's like a slide show of like the as the beard goes off your face.
It just it looks so ridiculous that I can't I don't send them to anyone.
I just have a phone full of my selfies that I like.
I take pictures and I look at it and I laugh and I do a silly face.
I'm addicted to it.
I'm embarrassed by it.
I haven't sent it to anyone.
But I I love doing it.
It's okay, Greg.
I already have.
Yeah.
Yeah, I have no, you know, opinions of you of any high regard.
So feel free to send them to me.
I know.
You want to do it to me?
I'll I'll just put them on on Twitter for us.
You want me to do a live one here?
Okay.
Yeah.
Send one to you right now.
This will be the one that we post.
Just turn on your video.
No, please don't.
I want to look at this picture for as little as possible.
I could put it.
All right.
I just sent it to you.
This is the most recent one from last night.
Have you figured out that like the high angle to like?
Yeah.
Yeah.
I got a couple of those.
Well, if you're taking a selfie and you got to like hold the camera up above your head.
It gives you a better angle.
It makes you look thinner.
Everyone knows that.
Jesus Christ.
Oh, take selfies.
I thought you meant for like the beard appearance.
Yeah.
Like when I take it like looking down my face,
it like really like you can see the length of the hair.
That's why I'm trying to get contrast.
I'm not trying to get like,
yeah, it looks like you brush that beard out a little bit.
I still haven't received it.
That's that's a beard.
I'll show you what I'm talking about.
The look down the camera one statement.
I'll hit you with one of those right now.
Oh, fuck me.
That's I'm not even going to try to describe words.
Can't do this justice.
You have to tune in next week to see where stupid beard is now.
Oh, I'm shaving it this weekend, by the way.
What?
Yeah.
Wait, wait, wait.
You're not going to let Leanna and Audrey see it?
No.
So here's what I'm thinking, right?
I need a haircut, too.
And this upcoming weekend happens to be July the 4th.
So I'm thinking stripes on my head, star on my face.
Oh, OK.
I just feel the girls are going to love it.
They see the half beard, Greg.
Just, you know, hold out one more week.
Steve, go, go fuck yourself.
I just want to see it.
I want to see it again in person, to be honest.
Well, I I want you to shut the fuck up,
but we can't all get what we want.
Can we?
I mean, thanks for joining us on the Patriots Diocese podcast.
This has been thrilling, gentlemen.
I hate this.
I hate this podcast.
And I hate this one.
I hate Steve the most, but I also hate you, Andy.
Andy, I love you.
Love you, Andy.
I do like retract sending texts.
Can I?
You know what, Greg?
I love you, too.
Did you see the second photo?
I know you're having a hard time.
Yeah.
The second one was that's some long ass hair.
It makes me wonder why you want to be.
Dude, I've also been doing doing real life emojis.
That series is wild.
Oh, but I can't let those ones get out where I do like.
Yes, you can.
The the monocle one.
I have a monocle one, you know.
Are you in Slack anywhere because you can create your own slack emojis?
No, these Microsoft teams.
Oh, gross.
Andy, you are right.
You are on the right path ending this.
This is getting ridiculous.
Yeah, this is this is over.
This has been over for a while.
Just like this pages game.
Is this going to be aired?
I don't know.
Yeah.
Dude, these selfies are electric.
I'm going to him right now.
There's some killer selfies in here.
No.
Speaking of electric.
Next week, you're going to be able to travel to Buffalo.
I'm not going to ruin Steve.
Pats that bills.
Pats that bills.
I think, you know, what better, what better way to get off the Schneid?
Then a Tom Brady in Buffalo.
I mean, because it's a crypto route.
Well, this is how I know that the streak ends because Tom Brady always wins a Buffalo.
I can count on my hands at times.
Some late.
I know each game where he's lost to the bills is only lost.
I think three of them.
Is that what we decided?
Mm hmm.
Yeah.
So and one of them, he only played a half.
So this might not be one of those, but you'll have to tune in next week
on the pages.
Daisy podcast.
If you're still with us after Gregory this week,
we will see you then.
Maybe.
I guess.
Yeah.
They all had a
dear Jesus.
