From the deep inside the bowels of the city market in Kansas City, Missouri downtown property
to the banks of the beautiful crystal blue waters of the Missouri River, it is the original
two, Topher and Mark, given the 2024 football predictions for the season.
You thought they were done, didn't you?
He didn't care, he got a check.
Yeah, he got paid, he didn't care.
Okay, this is a 325 game.
Ah, afternoon slate.
Yep, slate game, and it will probably be the feature game.
It's the Cowboys versus the Browns in Cleveland.
Oh, that's gonna be good.
This is, because this game is probably gonna be a nuttucker.
It's gonna be like down to the wire.
Maybe a missed field goal might kill a guy, or a made field goal might make him, something like that.
Or a late fumble.
Yeah, Cleveland's gonna play him really tough.
They have a great defense, as they've demonstrated.
Miles Garrett's still there.
The guy that was picked over in the Holmes.
Yep, yeah, I can see, I'm comfortable picking Cleveland to win, definitely.
But yeah, it's gonna be close, it's gonna be back and forth.
Cleveland's defense is gonna come through in this game.
I think that's gonna be the deciding factor.
I'm blanking on who the Dallas has.
They still have Dak Crescott, but who else did they get?
They've been really been high on.
Ezekiel Elliott's back with him.
Trey Lance.
From the Niners, yeah.
And they got Elliott back.
Did you know that?
I found that weird.
They shoved him out of town unceremoniously, and then they picked him back up a few years later.
When he wasn't good the year, they kicked him out.
Yeah, there's more going on there, but they don't tell us.
No, they're not gonna.
Trey Lance did really stink it up in his last preseason game with five interceptions.
He's not the guy.
But in Dallas' point of view, maybe that's the kind of guy, because that's kind of the guy they go for, is Romo, Dak Crescott, Trey Lance.
A lot of talent, a lot of upside, but just can't get it done.
Ever since Aikman, and that was Jimmy Johnson's regime, he got ran out.
Barry Switzer couldn't light a candle.
He's so stupid, in my opinion.
And Jason Garrett was there to do whatever Jerry Jones told him to do?
Yes.
So they have no growth.
They have no perception of what's out there in the draft.
And when they spend such a long length of time not developing quarterbacks, they forget how to do it.
Oh yeah.
And they lose people who know how to do it.
So if they start trying to do it now, they gotta start all over from scratch, or steal from some other organization to get some of the in.
There's a little bit different perspective, okay?
All right.
Isn't this about the Cowboys?
All right.
Mahomes was two years away from coming out.
They were right next door to him.
You know, they're right next door to him.
And the word was out that this kid is great.
Oh, he's gonna be phenomenal.
They tunnel focused so far in on Dak Crescott, they didn't wait the extra year or two to get Mahomes.
They were just like, oh, we're gonna get Dak Crescott.
And so that's a fault that they have, too.
Yeah.
And you know, it's Texas.
Nothing football happens in Texas unless everybody knows about it.
Yes.
Because football is God in Texas.
When I was in Galveston, the way to go on the cruise, I met two people that knew them, little Patrick Jr., you know.
One guy had pictures of his son playing with Patrick Jr. playing baseball together at Texas Tech.
Yeah.
He lived in White House, Texas, the same.
He knew the family really well.
Yeah.
And coincidentally, the last guy of the two guys was talking to me, and he said this.
He goes, yeah, he goes, Patrick Sr., really nice guy.
He gets in a little trouble, though.
Yeah, he sure does.
I was on the cruise when I had the bulletin that said that he got his fourth DUI.
And I'm like, hey, wait a minute.
That guy was right.
He was.
Anyhow, OK, back to the game.
Cleveland and Cowboys.
Yeah.
You think Cleveland's gonna win?
It's gonna be a nut tugger?
You got a score?
I think both teams will score in the 20s, so like 24-21, 24-22, something really close.
It's, you know, within a score.
So I'm gonna go, yeah, 24-21, something like that.
OK.
I think this is gonna be a game that goes down to the last to the wire.
I think a late fumble.
Ooh, that could be exciting.
Yeah, I'm predicting a late fumble is gonna win the game.
And I'm gonna predict Cleveland.
I think Cleveland's gonna play them tough and hard.
I don't look for Deshaun Watson to have a great game, but I look at him having a really solid game.
And I'm gonna be looking for one thing in this game.
His leadership.
His leadership has to be there.
Good point, yeah.
This is essential.
They need him to step up.
Yeah.
I mean, they actually did better last year when Flacco came in.
That should never happen with a number one pick like Watson.
That was really telling.
Yeah, it was.
They know if the team doesn't really like Watson, they don't really believe in him.
Yeah, it's gonna really make a difference.
Yeah, and they actually had like a lot of swagger when Flacco came on board.
It didn't look like they had before.
Yeah.
I mean, so...
Flacco came in wearing a Super Bowl ring.
Yeah, yeah.
Yep.
Yeah, that's one thing too right there.
Yeah.
They didn't deflate.
This is what got me.
They did not deflate when Deshaun Watson went down in the season ending injury.
They were just like, well, we're still gonna do well.
Yeah.
That is telling right there.
Yeah, that is.
You imagine like the Chiefs, the Holmes women.
Oh my God.
Yeah, that would be like, oh, okay, well, there's next year.
Yeah, pretty much.
Yeah.
We'd be going, yeah, we'll probably make it to the first round and probably get killed.
Yeah.
So, you know, so I'm gonna go late heroic.
So much strips of ball.
I'm gonna predict that Dallas will be the unfortunate victim of it.
And I predict that Cleveland-led, Miles Garrett-led defense will do some good things like they
did last year and really show some people that they are a force to be reckoned with.
And if you don't come to bat that Sunday, they're gonna beat you.
Yeah.
Yeah, you bring your A game to Cleveland, they're not a Patsy.
Yeah.
So next one, commanders against the Buccaneers.
Huh.
You ever hear the Buccaneer joke?
Huh.
Okay.
Well, there's this kid and he went around, he found a pirate hat in his Halloween.
He went around and he knocks on one Halloween door and he goes, oh, hey, oh, what, are you
a little pirate?
And he's like, yeah, okay, here's your candy.
He goes to the second door, bang, bang, bang.
And he goes, hey, are you a little, oh, shit, you know what, already fucked, you know what,
I fucked the whole thing up, forget it.
Okay.
Yeah, anyhow.
Wait two days, I'll forget it.
Yes.
Tell me again.
It's gonna be too hard to rewind everything.
Sorry, everybody, I didn't mean to leave you hanging.
So he had a hair lip.
You know what, I'll go ahead and do it.
Okay.
And he had a hair lip and he goes, hey, little guy, are you a pirate?
He goes, yep, I'm a fucking nearing.
Okay.
You know, so.
And so he goes second door and he goes, hey, here's your candy, are you a little pirate?
He goes, I'm a fucking nearing.
And then the third guy, you know, knocks on the door and the lady goes, oh, how cute.
What are you?
What is that on your head?
And he goes, that's a fucking hat, you fucking bitch.
But I still didn't tell it right.
I'm sorry, everybody.
They can't all be gems.
We don't want to get you used to the good stuff.
No, no, no, we got to throw trash in there.
Matter of fact, you probably won't hear this.
I'm gonna edit it out.
Leave it in the part where you said you edited something out.
Yeah, yeah.
Then they can all wonder about it.
Like I did on a regular one.
I go, we are not proud of this segment.
We think it sucks.
So therefore, you're not gonna hear it.
This is Mark.
Bye.
And I went to something else.
We both went going, my God, we during the pause, we're like, we could not have fucked
that up anymore.
This is gonna tarnish our legacy band.
We gotta kill this.
Anyhow, all right, Washington Buccaneers.
Man, I really want Washington to play well this year and do well.
I think the bucket here's what left out.
He goes bicker beat because he had a oh, I just now remember the whole fucking thing.
Anyhow, yeah, he had a little Buccaneer hand on you.
Hey, you know, it's up for a store.
He goes bicker beat.
Oh, hey, what are you little buddy?
I'm a pirate.
Oh, okay.
That's cool.
Gives him his candy.
Goes to second door and hey, trick or treat, bicker beat.
Oh, cool.
Hey, all right.
A little pirate.
Yeah, here's some candy.
Third one comes up.
Knock, knock, knock.
Hey, all right.
What's that hat on your head?
I'm a Buccaneer.
He goes, I'm a Buccaneer, you Buccaneer bit.
There you go.
Yeah, that was it.
Okay, sorry.
Now, we go to Washington and the Buccaneers.
Okay, well, I'm going to go with Washington.
Wow.
Tough game, close game.
I think their young quarterback is going to have a good late season, late game drive and
pull it out at the end.
28-24.
Cool.
Okay, I'm going to go with the Buccaneers.
Yeah, I can definitely see the Buccaneers.
I think that Mayfield has a chip on his shoulder.
I think he wants to be a really good quarterback.
I think he's matured.
He's always had a good arm.
It's always been his head.
He got injured in Cleveland when he was doing really well.
Yeah, I remember that.
People started taking jabs at him.
And he was on every single commercial, which irritated a lot of people.
People thought that his heart wasn't in it, so there became some discontent among the
fans, and also commentators were dogging on him too, Sports Talk writers, all that.
So it was kind of like the perfect storm of making someone feel not good about themselves,
to make someone not perform as well as they could.
Crush his confidence.
Yeah, crush his confidence.
I think his confidence is slowly being built back.
And I think that he's going to have a really good game.
Washington's a solid team, but I don't think they're quite there yet.
Yeah, probably not.
And it's in Tampa, so I'm going to say that Tampa's going to go ahead and take this game,
but not by a wide march, and by seven points.
I'm going to say 27-21, maybe six points.
Something like that.
It could be 28-20, 21, somewhere in that realm, and it's going to be pretty much a one-score game.
I'm kind of factoring in the Washington team being so happy that Dan Snyder isn't their
owner anymore.
You know, there's a lot to be said for that.
Yeah, it really made a difference.
And I think the players see the new Regine making a number of changes already, and they're
all kind of going, thank God, finally we can get back to just being a football team.
Honestly, I can see that too.
I can see them coming out actually backing themselves into the playoffs because of that.
Yeah, if they're quarter, Jaden, Jaylen, something like that.
I can't remember anything.
That's his first name.
But if he has a decent season bordering on good, he can carry him quite a ways.
Yeah, I agree.
I think that if Washington won it, it would not surprise me.
But I think that Baker Mayfield is going to have a solid season.
True, true.
I do think the Buccaneer is going to do well this season.
The next one, Rams and Lions, and this is a 730 Sunday night game.
Central time.
I'm going to watch that one for sure.
That game right there is already going to have playoff implications right there.
Yes.
I remember last year they played each other and they talked about how they'd swapped quarterbacks.
Same thing this year.
Goff almost made it last year, so he's going to have a chip on his shoulder.
Sorry, go ahead.
I think the Lions, I picked them to win the NFC.
So I think they're going to be able to handle the Rams.
They know the Rams.
They know that Rams is one of the teams they have to get past in the playoffs along with the Niners.
Yeah.
And then maybe the Eagles.
So I think the Lions are going to be ready for the Rams.
I think they'll have them figured out.
And Goff seems to be really settling in and turning into a much better quarterback in Detroit than he's been anywhere else.
I don't think he had very good tutoring before the Lions team was in Los Angeles.
They did well one year.
And I know it's Sean McVeigh, but it seemed like next year he was a completely different.
Anyhow, go ahead. I'll go in.
I think the Rams were probably a team that was saying, here's our system and we're going to make you fifth.
Whereas the Lions were, okay, we've identified these are the things you do really well, so we're going to build around that, which is always the better choice.
Yeah, I agree. I like their coach a lot, too.
Yeah. Yeah, the Lions' coach is definitely a force to be reckoned with.
He's like the extra man on the roster.
Yeah, he is.
So the Rams are going to have a decent season.
But I don't know, I always go back to there's so much else to do in Los Angeles that football is like tenth on the list.
They don't have home field advantage.
No, there's no home field advantage. There's no big, awesome home crowd.
The fans don't travel the way other teams' fans do because no one really cares all that much about the Rams.
That's true.
In New York, you've got people who are just ramming about the Giants and about the Jets because you've got Jersey right there.
Yes.
But in Los Angeles, it's like, it's a nice day. Let's go to the beach. Who cares about football?
Yeah, and I wouldn't blame them either. I mean, yeah, I love football, but man, I'd be recording them all at the beach. I wouldn't.
Yeah. Back when Bill Cosby was doing stand-up comedy, he had a bit about the Los Angeles Rams. He was living in LA at the time.
And he was at the game with his daughter, who was about three.
And the Rams were on a drive and they were behind and they were trying to score. They were on the ten-yard line.
And his daughter said, I have to pee.
And he's like, I didn't care so much about the game or the fact that you're on the ten-yard line. What I cared about is there was no daddy-daughter bathroom in this entire stadium.
So what am I going to do? And this was probably around 1970.
Interestingly, he's worried about predators.
Yes. Well, it was his daughter.
Oh, okay. That's different.
He didn't care if it was somebody else's daughter.
Allegedly.
Yes, allegedly.
Okay. Anyway, Los Angeles, they lose teams, they gain teams. People don't really care much about the teams.
They got the stadium built, but it was for two teams.
If you lose a team to Oakland, you're doing something wrong.
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And they lost the Chargers and now they got the Chargers back.
But no one still cares.
Yeah. Yeah. There's just so much else to do. And just a little ways up the road is San Francisco 49ers, same division.
And they're measurably better.
Yeah.
And they have been historically.
Yeah.
So I think that lack of home team and fan involvement and stuff is going to hamper the Rams.
Definitely Lions are going to win it in a tough game, but Lions are going to pull away at the end, probably win by 10, like 30 to 20.
Okay.
34-24. Somewhere in that range.
That sounds reasonable. I, too, am picking the Lions. But not by so much.
Yeah.
I think the Lions team around them is good enough to beat the Rams.
Yeah.
This is an even year against Jared Goff. He has the same thing.
As Peterson?
Yeah.
Even years, not years.
Yeah.
Funny.
Notice, that's why they got rid of him in LA, is because one year they went to the Super Bowl and next year he couldn't do anything right.
Next year they're in the playoffs. Next year they were bottom dwellers.
Wow. Yeah, he has a whole season of hangover.
Yeah.
Huh.
So until he proves me different, now like I said, Lions are going to win this despite of Goff's play.
Yeah.
And I think it's just because they have so much of a better team.
Yeah, they have a deep roster.
Yeah.
I was kind of surprised they didn't make a move earlier when Damocon Sioux was on their defense.
Yeah.
But he's gone now. I think he's retired.
Yeah.
He ended up going to some teams that were really good and playing in some games.
So, yeah, but he was a great pick. They just didn't have a team around him.
Yeah. Yeah. They would have been better off trading him for like three or four serviceable players.
Mm-hmm. 27-24, Lions.
Close game.
Yeah. And now the granddaddy.
Monday Night Football?
Yes. The Thursday Night Football is a marquee game and the Monday Night Football is a marquee game.
Is it a doubleheader this year or not?
No, it's not. It's one-off, which is awesome.
They probably did the Friday game instead.
Oh, hang on, hang on. No, no, no. It is a one-off.
Yeah, they did double last year, didn't they, when they had that?
They've been doing doubleheaders, doing the late game on the West Coast, but, you know.
Not this year.
There's so many people that just won't stay up for that.
So putting it on, I think they moved the second from Monday Night game to Friday.
That's the new Friday Night game.
Yeah, I think you're right. And the reason is San Francisco, I mean, you know, that's California.
They're probably not going to watch it at that time. It's going to be early in the afternoon.
Yeah.
They've got other things to do, so I agree.
So we have the New York Jets at the San Francisco 49ers.
Oh, boy.
You know, the Niners know all about Aaron Rodgers.
Yes, they do.
Not necessarily the Jets, but they know Aaron Rodgers.
Yes.
They've given Aaron Rodgers a lot of trouble over the years.
They beat him like a drum a few times.
Didn't they beat him in Green Bay once where they never lose?
Yes.
Yeah.
Now, that is their kryptonite. That is their kryptonite.
It's Sam Fran.
Yeah.
Or Aaron Rodgers' kryptonite, not the Jets, but Aaron Rodgers' kryptonite.
And then everything I've been hearing lately about the Jets' organization.
Yeah, I'm sorry I picked them now because I started reading some of that stuff and I'm like, oh.
Yeah. They keep bringing up the quotes he made while he was still in Green Bay,
saying that he's more interested in having good stats and personal achievements rather than a win.
And I think that was a knock on in Green Bay too when they drafted Jordan Love.
A lot of people are like, let him go. He's a pompous asshole. Let him go.
He has said out loud that he's more interested in chasing the NFL MVP than a playoff run.
Could you imagine that type of sentiment? You hear that and you're in the locker room with him.
No kidding.
I'd be like, no.
It's like this guy's going to throw me right under the bus if he pads his stats.
Yeah.
That's not what I consider a good person.
And he's arrogant and elitist. He won't buddy up with other guys in the locker room, or just a few of them anyway.
I mean, everybody thought that Brett Favre was a dick too. Aaron Rodgers.
Aaron Rodgers makes Brett Favre look like a fucking kitten.
Yeah.
Yeah. I mean, and he had such a problem with how Favre treated him, yet he's doing worse it looks like in my opinion.
Yeah. He hasn't done the illegal things that Favre did.
The drug addiction, stealing money from charities.
That's the one that really got me. The drug addiction, okay, you're getting slammed against the turf constantly.
You might end up on drugs.
Yeah.
Stealing from the poor? When you have enough money to finance that team yourself?
Yeah, stealing from the poor is bad enough, but giving the money to entitled rich kids sports.
And using a politician.
Yeah.
I mean, I don't have to say anything. I'm pretty sure everyone feels the same way.
Yeah. And I think Brett Favre got a lot of goodwill to get out of his addiction problem because his wife got cancer.
Yes. Yeah, that is.
His publicists knew that if they focused on his wife's cancer, everyone forget that he's a drug addict.
Oh, you're right.
Everyone would stop caring. Oh, that poor man, he's got enough trouble. Let's forgive him for getting high all the time.
Yes.
You know?
Yeah. That was part of it. The other part of it, while his wife's going through cancer, is sending dick pics to...
Yeah.
Wasn't that when he was with the Jets? Momentarily, one year?
Yeah.
Yeah. So, I mean, the whole cancer thing is he may have diverted or abated, but to me, he looked like a worse scumbag.
Because, you know, his wife's battling cancer, he's fucking sending dick pics to some trainer or something, some female trainer.
I'm not just getting far afield, but it would not surprise me to learn that when football players start getting really successful,
they probably have a talk with their spouse saying, look, this is the way it's going to be so we can make a crap ton of money.
Yeah.
Or, you know, we can play it, you know, straight and we won't make as much.
Or we can do all the sneezy disgusting things and ignore each other and be crappy people,
and when it's all said and done, we'll have an extra 12 million.
I think that conversation takes place.
I think you're right. It's just like politicians' wives.
They're like, look, you know what I do? You want to remain here in the comfort of this and bask in the money and the glory? Go ahead.
Yeah.
But this is what I do.
It's a very similar thing, you know? The affairs while he's traveling, the sleaziness, you know, everything he has to do.
The spouse is like, you know, this is the way the game is played.
We can decide not to be a part of it or we can do it and just get the money out of it.
So I think Brent Farrar's life was like, yeah, whatever. I'm going to make money on the back end.
Yeah. I think you're right.
Yeah.
But anyway, as far as Jets and Niners, I think Jets are going to crumble this season.
Aaron Rodgers could have a good year. Even if Aaron Rodgers has a good year, it's not going to be enough.
Yeah.
And I can see him doing a Jeff George where he gets pissed off and blames everyone but himself
and declares that he's the only good player on the team and everyone else is stupid little idiots.
I agree 100%. He has that mentality.
Yeah.
If everyone around here would do their fucking part.
Uh-huh.
Yeah.
And I think Aaron Rodgers has also set things up in his personal life that he could just walk away
any time he wants and he's got something to go to.
Yeah. I agree.
So he's not really all in and it's going to show starting the first week.
Yes.
So I'm seeing that the Niners are going to just mop the place with the Jets
and Aaron Rodgers is going to get embarrassed.
He'll throw at least one really, really stupid pass. At least one.
And I'm going to enjoy watching it.
I'm going to predict a lot of tip balls.
Yeah, yeah, definitely.
They're probably not in sync and he's going to throw that rocket and the guy's going to take it in the helmet
and it's going to go up in the air and then it's free game.
Because really, what has he ever done with the Jets on the field?
A few preseason games and one series last year.
One series last year.
That's it. He has never played a real football game with the Jets.
You just hit something too. The wild card in this.
We're talking about a torn ACL and a 40-year-old guy.
Yeah, coming back from that Achilles. No, was it Achilles or ACL?
I think it's ACL.
Either way, it's one of those injuries where you're pretty much not the same guy that first year.
You've got to wait for the second year to really come back.
Yes. He's going to be 41 next year and I think he might be with a different team.
You know, he's probably looking at what Brady did and thinking, I want to one-up him.
Yeah, not now. There's no way he could. No way he could.
I mean, number one, he couldn't have done it anyhow.
He doesn't have the bring it together, the we're all one capability.
He can't bring a team together. As a matter of fact, he divides them in my opinion.
Yeah. I mean, Brady wasn't the Boy Scout leader kind of guy.
He would get and feed people's faces and yell.
Oh, he would make up conflict that wasn't there.
Yeah.
He'd find something and take it out of text just to say, hey, they don't believe in us.
Look at this. Look what this guy said.
Brady would even say that he didn't yell at his own teammates.
But he got everyone to buy in because he was that good.
He would say like, quit doing that. Do what I tell you and I'm going to get us a win.
Whereas Mahomes is more like, we're all in this together, one play at a time.
Let's everyone do everything right.
Brady had more of the do it my way because you know I can win.
Aaron Rodgers really can't do that.
He started making demands like that. People were like, screw you.
You're not even going to be here next year.
Yeah.
You know, I'm 24. I can wait a year for you to go somewhere else.
Yeah. Oh, I mean, look at the way Mahomes rallies a team.
Yeah.
Let's say Brady rallies a team.
They have different ways of it, but they know how to rally a team and bring them together.
And that's a big difference right there.
Even Brock Purdy can do it in San Francisco.
He was the only quarterback I felt sorry for that they lost when we won against him in the Super Bowl.
I didn't feel sorry about Garofalo at all. I was like, okay, you know what?
Didn't care about Jalen Hurts.
Nope, didn't care about Jalen Hurts.
Little Joey Juice box.
Joey Juice box definitely didn't care about.
Although I respect him. I think he's a good human being.
And all of this is fodder because they're enemies.
And I'm sure they do the same thing.
Yeah, this is what the league wants us to do is be territorial and hate the outsiders, but still buy the merchandise.
Yes.
So I'm saying that they're going to dismantle them.
But it's going to look tough until the second late in the second quarter, right before half.
I think that Brock Purdy is going to figure a couple of things out with the help of Shanahan.
Kyle Shanahan is going to go, hey, Brock, come here.
This isn't working, but this right here is working.
Do you think you can do this?
And I think Brock Purdy is the type of guy that goes, I think I can do that and I'm going to show you.
They still have Bosa?
Yes.
Yeah, they have Joey Bosa, don't they?
Yeah, I can see the Niners shutting out the Jets in the second half.
I can see Bosa taking great happiness and sacking Aaron Rodgers.
And not just kinda.
That's another point I hadn't thought about until you mentioned that the 49ers defensive players are going to be extra motivated to sack Aaron Rodgers.
Yeah, they don't like him already from Green Bay.
Yeah.
And they're like, okay, you think you're going to go to another team and get bias? Watch this.
And you know, everybody's going to be waiting to see how Aaron Rodgers takes that first hard sack.
Me one of them. Me one of them.
Every 49er defender wants to be the player that hits him for that first hard sack.
You tell me Joey Bosa doesn't want to go in there and just fucking body slam him and walk off brushing off his fucking jersey.
There you go, guys. That's how it's done.
And I think they're going to make sure it's a clean hit too. They're not going to do the dirty stuff and have it called back.
No, no, no. It's going to be a clean hit that's just going to demolish him really good. And who knows? He might get injured again.
It's happened before.
Well, I know one thing. Whenever you inflame people like he has, they have more than just wanting to win behind them.
They're like, OK, I'm going to get this loudmouth really good. Watch this.
They want to be the guy that's like put the loudmouth in their place.
And you know, even when it works out, like when the Jets predicted they were going to win the Super Bowl over the Colts and then they went out and did.
Yeah.
It just made them look like arrogant jerks and everyone felt bad for the Colts.
And if they would have lost, they'd be like still arrogant.
Yeah. And then not knowing what they were talking about.
Yes. So bragging like that is just arrogant.
Jets lose. Yes. It's like sober chicks that bite each other. 34.
True. That was an awesome podcast. Yes, it was.
3410 San Francisco is going to be close to a late second of the quarter, probably be like 10 to seven.
And then I think you're going to see San Fran open it up and just fucking put on the afterburners.
Yeah, I think I'll go with 3410, but I think Jets will score all 10 in the first half and they'll be shut out second.
Yeah. And I think that Aaron Rodgers is not going to have enough juice against that defense.
Let's put it like this. Patrick Mahomes had that much problem against that defense.
Imagine Aaron Rodgers being 40 years old with a torn ACL that's probably still somewhat healing.
Yeah. And he hasn't played in an NFL game for a year and a half now.
Yeah. And that San Francisco team is so well coached. They're going to expose every weakness they see.
And Aaron Rodgers, they're going to find his weaknesses because they already know them.
And pretty much they're going to scout last year's Jets team, but they're also going to scout the last couple of years Aaron Rodgers was in Green Bay.
Yeah. Kyle Shanahan was with them when they played them two or three times already.
Yeah. So it's not going to be that far of a stretch to already know them.
Yeah. It's kind of on the same league as us getting ready for the Bengals or the Bills.
We know them. We've played them enough. We've played tough games. We've won and lost to them.
I agree. And another thing is that receiving core and tight end core.
This is as good as it gets. I mean, you know, Devo Samuel, Brandon Iook. Iook? I think it's Iook.
Yeah. George Kittle with tight end. They've got another tight end.
They've got another one that's pretty good too. He actually showed it a few times.
Yeah. I just think that like it's going to look like going to be a tough tough tough game at first.
Yeah. But then that's yeah. You know who else the 49ers have? Christian McCaffrey.
Oh shit. And Joey Bosa. That's right.
They've got that really tough hard nose running back who's just going to throw himself into the line 30 times a game if you ask him to.
And he can catch.
This was the only Super Bowl where I agreed that maybe they should go ahead and get 49ers the edge on winning.
Yeah. Because their team was just so complete.
Yeah. Yeah. When they signed McCaffrey, I was like, oh my goodness, that's bad for us.
I was thinking why didn't we do that?
Yeah. Yeah. And it worked out so well for them. I mean, they didn't they didn't win it all last year because we got in their way.
He's a McCaffrey. That's why he didn't.
Oh. Denver.
There you go.
Yeah. I remember reading something out like his dad said don't sign with the Chiefs. Or he did because of the rivalry.
Yeah. What was his Ed McCaffrey?
Yeah. Ed McCaffrey. And he was with Denver.
Yeah.
And that was the deal.
Oh, real quick. You were you were here with me, weren't you? When they're putting up those spikes.
Look at that. They weren't.
Yeah. They when we got here, that stretch right at the end there wasn't up there yet.
And there were two pigeons that are looking really pissed off.
Just since we've been there, they they finished off that top stretch and the pigeons.
They're over there. They're looking like where do we land, man?
I can't crap on these people over here.
Oh, man. Yeah. I mean, that's like the main problem with these metal structures like this is their shit is acidity.
And it eats away the metal.
Yeah.
I like what they did down there at this car lot. I had to help a friend get their car out of the lot.
It's underneath I-35 on Southwest Boulevard.
And I'm hearing all these birds everywhere. And I'm like, man, I go, where are all these birds?
And he goes, OK, those are actually recordings that scare away the pigeons.
Cool.
And I was like, wow. And it worked because there was not one anywhere around there, not one pigeon.
So that makes more sense than here. They put up inflatable owls.
Yeah, they did. But they didn't seem to work too well.
No, because they don't move and the birds get used to them being there.
But if you play the sound, the birds not going to spend much time looking for it.
It's like, oh, I hear it. I'm getting out of here.
Yeah. Yeah. And I think that's the whole idea about it, because the owls work for like a month.
Yeah.
And then the pigeons are smart enough to go, he never left. That's not real.
Yeah. You got to keep moving them. It's like putting an inflatable snake in your garden to scare off the birds.
It'll work for a little bit.
You got to keep moving the snake around so it looks like it's changing position.
Yeah. They didn't change them enough because that one was over there the whole time. That one was over there the whole time.
Yeah. That one over there has got pigeon crap on it.
That's how scared they are of the artificial owl.
Oh, he's still there.
Yeah. There's still one hanging over there. He's got pigeon crap on his head.
It was probably a pigeon teenager's like, I dare you to go up and shit on that owl, man.
Show them your cloaca.
Oh, it was bats.
Bats?
Bats. Yeah, they bet each other.
Oh, yeah. Yeah.
I'll bet you three worms. You can't go shit on that sign or that owl.
Throw in that Doritos Cool Ranch potato chip and I'm in.
Okay. All right. Let's take us a break and then we're going to come back with Skippy Bayless's stupidest comments.
That sound good?
That sounds good.
And then going into Chris Collinsworth homoerotic.
Oh, man. That's going to be good.
Oh, it's excellent. All right. Hello.
All right. We're good to go.
Yeah, we're going.
All right. We're starting the second half and we're going to go with, we won't do it right now.
We'll go to the Skippy Bayless's stupidest comments later.
Yeah.
And then followed by Chris Collinsworth's homoerotic statements that people have been all over on.
There's a whole webpage.
It's a big thing on the internet.
Yes.
Or do you want to, do you want to, we have some guests here. What's your name?
Daniel.
Daniel. Okay. And your name?
Anisia.
Anisia. All right.
Right.
Very nice young couple here. And anyhow, go ahead. Do you want to say something, introduce yourself?
Well, we're from the great state of Wisconsin.
Oh, okay.
Nice. We've been living here the past year and we will forever be Packers fans.
I understand.
I'm an A&M fan.
No matter where I go, you know, I'm always a Chiefs fan. I get it.
Yeah.
Do you like Jordan Love?
Yeah. He's pretty good.
What do you think of Aaron Rodgers?
We just spent 15 minutes dogging on him. You missed that.
Oh yeah?
Yes.
I think Aaron Rodgers should care a little bit more about football and a little less about other things.
That's what we said.
Yes.
Pretty much what we said.
Unless he wants to go be a monk or something or some kind of religious guru.
Who knows with him?
I don't know. Last I knew him.
He's all over the place.
He's in mushrooms. He was in psychedelic mushrooms last time.
What is this? Darkness retreats?
Yeah.
Where he spends 48 hours in total darkness or something.
Yeah.
Who knows if he actually does all this? This is what he tells us.
He's probably cultivating the image of the talented eccentric weirdo.
We were talking about how outraged he was the way Brett Favre treated him.
Oh.
Remember?
And Brett Favre didn't really want to teach him anything, show him anything. He snubbed him.
What would he do with Jordan Love?
He probably did worse. And look at him over at the Jets.
He's already pretty much run Zach Wilson out of there.
Zach Wilson, him, they kept butting heads and you know Zach Wilson had to leave.
Yeah.
So I mean he's not a team player for sure.
Yeah.
So is there anything around Green Bay that you know about him? Any kind of dirt or anything living up there?
No, nothing I know firsthand but I can imagine he probably sees all the NFC championship games.
He's flashing through his mind when he goes into his darkest retreat.
Probably a lot of San Francisco 49ers, flashbacks.
That's the first game, the first Monday night game there in San Francisco. The Jets are.
Aaron's going to have to play the Niners who know him like a book.
Yeah.
You know Kyle Shanahan probably is not sleeping at night coming up with stuff to destroy him.
True.
And he's 40 years old in a torn ACL.
Hasn't played a real meaningful game in a year and a half.
Yeah.
I don't see Aaron Rodgers having a good day or a good evening.
I don't either. I think they're going to ruin his evening. I think that Bosa is just going to, he's going to, he's going to see Bosa for years.
Yeah.
He's going to smell Bosa in his sleep.
Yeah.
What do you spell in Bosa's cologne?
Probably in 5D with his mushroom trip.
Yeah, that's true.
Good point.
Yeah.
Well good. Thank you.
Yeah. Yeah.
Anyhow, do you want to hear one of Skippy Bayless's stupid comments?
Sure.
Okay. The number one, and I rank these because the, with the outrage.
Okay. Because I went on there and saw X, Twitter, whatever it is.
And then also looked at Reddit and this is the number one thing that people hate him for.
Okay. Number one is no doubt that he said this, no doubt the NFL is considering postponing the rest of this game.
But how? This late in the season, game of this magnitude is critical to the regular season outcome.
That was comments on Demarra Hamlin dying on the field while he is lying on the field, dying.
And thank God he was in critical condition.
No one knew if he was going to live or die. They knew that he died on the field and they're trying to bring him back.
And this Bosa was saying that.
He was saying that. And I'll tell you why he said that.
Because I know this idiot really well.
He's a Mahomes hater. He always has been. He always tries to pop someone else up better than him.
So here's what he got.
Okay. Number one, this Bosa doesn't have a brain cell.
My opinion is he knew the game could not be played again in that late in the season. He knew this.
There's no way the schedule is booked up.
The first week is the wild cards and the second week is divisional.
So there's no way. So he knew that the AFC was going to run through Arrowhead Stadium again.
Which he's always dogging on Mahomes stuff.
He knew that Mahomes was going to make him look like crap again.
And he didn't like that.
So he's trying to like, oh, well, you know, he was pissed off because he wanted the Chiefs to have to go somewhere else.
Which they did last year and they didn't anyhow.
But now, you know, first he's swinging off Dak Prescott's sack. Now it's Joey Burrows.
I mean, he needs to make up his mind who the greatest quarterback ever is.
I know the greatest commentator ever is not Skip Bayless.
I mean, he's not even close.
Who do you think?
What now?
The greatest commentator.
Well, I mean, broadcaster of sports will be Howard Cosell.
Commentator. I like Dan Deardorff a lot.
He was very good at adding a lot of substance.
I would go with Madden, but he did too many booms and pows.
Yeah, he started playing a character of himself.
You go boom and then you go pow and then you know.
So, yeah, cheesy.
But I mean, for a raw standpoint, it would have to be Madden.
I would say commentator and not just flat out, you know, like the I mean, I think Al Michaels is really good too.
I'm going to have to go with Cosell because he basically invented the modern way of, you know, calling the football game.
Anyhow, you got any thoughts on it? Go ahead.
Yeah, that's good.
I would think Al Michaels definitely would be in the top five.
He's so smooth.
Yeah.
That guy is so smooth.
I mean, he knows his stuff.
He can switch, you know, between sports seamlessly.
I think Kevin Harlan is right up there with him.
Oh, gosh.
Because he is so smart.
Kevin Harlan is amazing.
He knows his inside and out.
He grew up, his dad was part of the Packer organization.
Yeah.
Kevin Harlan grew up, you know, knowing the Packers inside and out.
And he was our commentator on the radio for years.
He was the chiefs commentator on a radio broadcast before he went national.
Yeah. And that guy, his excitement.
My favorite part of him was when Fitz Magic was down there in Miami beating the Patriots and we were beating, who are we beating at the same time,
which meant that we were going to get the number one seed.
And finally, maybe the Patriots are going to get to taste their own medicine and have to go somewhere.
But I think Tennessee knocked him out before that, the playoffs right before that.
Yeah.
So we didn't see him.
But Fitz Magic was down there like just playing mics out and he beat him.
Kevin Harlan had a split screen and he was calling both games.
Yeah.
Because he was calling, what game was he calling?
But he kept turning around and going, and OK, and Fitz Magic just scored, you know, and he's like going nutso on this other game, wall calling the main game.
Wow.
And it is, I mean, look it up sometime, it's a 2019, last game, 2019 is Miami game.
I forgot who their opponent was.
And you could tell that he worked for Kansas City a long time, but he wasn't making any bones about it, you know.
He was just like, he was like, hey, I'm very excited and you're going to hear this too.
Yeah.
That's great.
That's awesome.
Yeah, he's an amazing guy.
And anyhow, what are you doing in town?
Well, we moved here last year.
Oh, cool.
Yeah.
I had a teaching apprenticeship.
Oh, excellent.
So I'm now a teacher at a private school.
Excellent.
Good.
What school is it, do you care to say?
Providence School of the Arts.
OK, excellent.
Yeah.
Well, good, man.
Well, welcome to Kansas City.
We hope you like it.
I mean, you know, it's not a bad place.
The weather sucks sometimes.
The potholes are terrible.
Yeah, the potholes are horrible.
The crater of the moon, I mean, crime's bad, but if you live in a nice area, you got a
slight chance of living.
Yeah.
And yeah.
I was in Madison once in the 80s.
My brother was going to Wisconsin before he switched to East Lansing, Michigan State.
So we drove up for like a whole weekend and really enjoyed it.
Yeah.
It was a neat town.
It is.
It's a beautiful college town atmosphere, et cetera.
I like Wisconsin better than I like Michigan.
Yeah.
I've been to Wisconsin several times, always enjoyed it.
But one of my best friends is from, it is a suburb in Milwaukee.
Will Waukeek.
Waukesha?
Waukesha.
Yeah.
Wow.
He's from Waukesha.
My great uncle lived there and we'd go there every summer.
Oh yeah, yeah.
He loved it.
He misses it.
I mean, he likes it down here, but he really misses Wisconsin a lot.
Yeah.
Anyhow, he's one of my best friends.
Really good guy.
I mean, really knowledgeable.
So anyhow.
Awesome.
Yeah.
He was the guy that found out he has a big patch of land in a house over off 7 Highway,
over, close to Lone Jack in between there.
And he had this huge creek in the middle of his, right in front of his house.
Yeah.
And he had a place where if you could take the bridges off of old 50 Highway, you could
have them.
So he hired a heavy lifting company to go get one of those bridges and bring it to his
house and put it over his creek.
Cool.
So he has an original old 50 Highway, US 50 Highway bridge on his land.
That's amazing.
Yeah, it is.
It's really cool.
And I was like, wow, that's genius.
You know, he just happened to find out that they're giving away bridges if you come and
get them.
That's wild.
Yeah.
He would have thought, well, I'm going to pick up a bridge on my way home.
Yeah.
That'd be funny if he was like, getting ready to go somewhere and he's on his phone.
He's like, I got to go pick up a bridge.
I'll be back.
Game?
Oh, no, no.
Bridge.
Wow.
Well, thank you for having me on.
Yeah, absolutely.
Great meeting you guys.
And again, welcome.
Did you have barbecue?
Oh, yeah.
OK, good.
We actually went to a place called Fuego's Mexican Barbecue.
That sounds good.
In Liberty, really good.
In Liberty?
OK.
Try that one.
Surprisingly good.
You would not stop if you saw it from the outside.
Oh, I got you.
It's one of those.
Some of those places are the best ones.
They are the best.
Yeah.
I agree.
Well, good.
Thank you very much.
Yeah, take care, man.
It's good talking to you guys.
Thank you.
And I'll see you around, Ian.
All righty.
That was the number one Skippy Bayless stupid statement.
I remember that.
He was so desperate for the Chiefs to not get any advantage that he wanted the game
to go on no matter what.
Yeah, he didn't care.
He was going to look like shit again.
People are tripping over those chairs.
Oh, OK.
But yeah, he was so desperate for the game to continue so it would make sure to knock
the Chiefs out.
Yeah, he was scratching for any type of traction he could get.
But he knew, he probably knew that the game was going to be postponed, but it irritated
him so bad he had to say something stupid, which is not beyond him.
They just flat out canceled the game and didn't count it.
Yeah, and he didn't tweet anymore that night.
Yeah, I imagine a lot of people who called him up and said, listen, you sound like a
real creep.
You better back it down.
Yeah.
You sound like an uncaring idiot fool.
I wouldn't be surprised if some of the corporations that he signed with called him up and said,
uh-uh.
We can't use you if you're the most hated person in the world.
I bet you it was some of that, too.
They're like, you better retract and shut your mouth.
Yeah, because he's useful if people hate him and love to hate him, but if he's just hated
like somebody who ran over his dog on purpose, hate him, they can't use him.
At least Stephen A has some ground to stand on.
He believes what he says.
Yeah.
You know, it may be annoying at times and he may be a loudmouth, but at least he believes
what he says.
Yeah.
And he owns it, too.
And Skip Bayless will just say whatever.
Yeah, he's a counter programmer.
Anyhow, the next stupidest statement, according to Outrage, and this is admittedly a lot of
Chiefs fans, but it's other people, too, that do better.
The championship game in Arrowhead when the Chiefs suffered the overtime loss to the Bengals,
he proclaimed it was the end of the Chiefs' dynasty and was the beginning of the Bengals'
dynasty.
So, okay, now let's let us look at the last five Superbars, okay?
Four times we were there, won three of them.
They were there one time and lost and haven't snipped it since.
Yep.
I think he was pretty wrong on that one.
Yeah, yeah.
Well, obviously wrong, too.
Yeah.
And it wasn't, I don't know if it was Skip Bayless or somebody who was complaining about
how many AFC Championship games went through Arrowhead and was saying maybe we should pick
a neutral site for the AFC Championship like we do for the Super Bowl.
It's like, it's just because it's Kansas City.
Yeah, that's it.
That was the only reason he didn't want it to keep happening in one place.
I think he views this as like a small town or something like that.
You know?
His town that he resides in, I'm pretty sure it's Dallas still, they gave us the Texans.
Yeah, yeah.
The Kansas City Chiefs started in Dallas, came to Kansas City and have done extremely
well.
Yeah, yeah.
So, again, Skippy, you can eat a bowl of shit flakes.
Next one.
I'm recording outrage on Twitter and Reddit.
Reddit's a really good place to get food.
Again, I think Cam Newton can be a good quarterback, but I think Tim Tebow can be much better.
Wow.
Cam Newton had a real good chance, but something just went really wrong for him.
I'm not sure.
Was it his confidence or injuries or accommodations?
I think it was bad coaching several times, ruined him.
Yeah.
But as far as Tim Tebow, I think he was somebody everyone really kind of wanted to feel good
about and inflated him into more of a quarterback than he really was.
I mean, he was decent.
He was good.
Yeah, but he had one pass, that miracle pass in that playoff game where nobody was scoring,
and that was it.
It was like Johnny Manziel had one good college season.
Interesting.
I'm going to go to Johnny Manziel's comments, but go ahead.
Yeah.
And then he had a mediocre season, and then he went to the NFL and sucked.
But people say, oh, Johnny Manziel didn't give a chance.
There wasn't much there to begin with.
He didn't give himself a chance.
He was too busy partying and doing other things.
He didn't want to be the guy.
He got as far as he could on natural talent without making any extra effort.
Yeah.
And then he flamed out when he couldn't push through, and he was more interested in partying
and making money.
Yeah, he was not dedicated at all.
He was there for the ride.
And really, his first season in the NFL was enough to convince him, I don't want to do
this.
I'm just going to stick around for the money.
He was pushed into football anyhow.
Yeah.
Anyway.
Oh, OK.
OK.
Get back to Skippy.
Let's get back to Skippy.
Long term.
Give me Josh Freeman over Cam Newton.
Better leader, more consistent passer, more clutch, more poised under fire, more careful
with the ball.
You know, it's like he's talking about what they were two years ago in college.
Yes.
Or back in high school.
It's like he's not looking at the reality of how they're playing right now.
No, I agree.
When he made that statement.
But yeah, Josh Freeman, you know, he could have been all that, but he wasn't anymore.
No, no.
I'd heard several things about him.
Of course, he's from Grandview, which is like three miles from me.
Val's children went to Grandview, so they knew him.
One of my step sons was on the football team with him.
Yeah.
So yeah.
Oh, I forgot.
Yeah, that too.
Yeah.
People know him and there's much more to the story that I will not tell you on the podcast
because we don't want to spread that kind of information unless we're sure about it.
Yes, absolutely.
Amazing.
There's some things we won't say on the podcast.
Although we could cover our ass by saying allegedly.
Allegedly.
Yeah.
I still don't want to be that guy.
No.
I don't know it for sure, but I've heard rumor and I think I have a pretty good idea, but
I don't know for sure.
So I'm not going to say it.
And it's something that kind of makes sense too.
It does.
It just kind of seems to make some pieces fit.
Yeah, sure does.
I think we're talking about the same thing.
Okay.
One day Johnny football would be bigger in Cleveland than the Ron James ever.
That was good.
That comment did not age well.
I know.
Man.
I mean, you're supposed to wait until he has like two Super Bowl rings before you say crap
like that.
Yes.
Seriously.
Yes.
Little Skippy is the kind of guy who wants to be the first one who said it.
So he'll say a thousand wrong things.
And then when he hits one right, he's going to go, look like that.
I'm Skippy Bayless.
Yeah.
He could stand there next to a tree and say over and over, lightning is about to strike
this tree.
And then maybe a year and a half from now it will.
Yeah.
See, I told you.
Yeah.
And then ESPN will sign him to be a predictor.
I was right once in a year and a half.
Next one.
I'm sorry.
Vaughn Miller is overrated.
I didn't love him at A&M, disappeared in too many games and Denver's real MVP.
Wow.
Vaughn Miller was a highly sought after free agent, wasn't he?
I mean, wherever he went, he got paid.
He got paid and he was a fantastic pass rusher.
Yeah.
They made him like a key part of the defense, if not the center.
I'd like to know how many quarterbacks Vaughn Miller ruined.
Uh huh.
Yeah.
I bet you some of them still hear him in their sleep.
Yeah.
There's some out there with some bones that hurt exactly where Vaughn Miller hit him.
Yeah.
Yes.
I don't know what TV he was watching this on, but that's one of the dumbest statements
I've ever heard.
Yeah.
I mean, it gets to the point where it's just obvious he's just trying to say something
really wrong and stupid to get you to pay attention to.
Yeah.
And again, there's hundreds of these statements, but we don't have that kind of time.
We've got to be home at some time today.
Yeah.
This is just like a little showing of the big picture.
Yeah.
If you ever want to see all the stupid things he says, number one, have five hours.
Number two, get on the internet and look for him.
The next one, Tim Tebow, most polarizing athlete ever.
No.
Not even close.
No.
Michael Vick beats him hands down from polarizing.
Yeah.
Mahomes.
Peyton Manning.
Tom Brady.
Tom Brady, Peyton Manning.
Peyton Manning, definitely.
Yeah.
Tim Tebow is not even in the top 50, I don't believe.
Who was the guy in the Chargers hit, Philip Rivers?
Philip Rivers, yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, we're talking about quarterbacks that were really good.
Drew Brees, another one.
But people still wanted him out.
It's like, no, he's not the guy.
Some people love him, some people hate him.
Well, they based it on not being able to get very far in the playoffs.
Some of that was Schottenheimer's fault, or a good majority of it.
They should have had that game when they were 14 and 2 against the New England Patriots.
They should have had that game won.
They had everything in their corner.
So anyhow.
Didn't the Chargers eventually get to a Super Bowl and lose badly?
Wasn't that with Stan Humphries?
Yeah.
Yeah, and they lost horribly.
Yeah, they really got.
They were like 47 to 3 or something.
It's amazing.
It doesn't happen anymore, but when you and I were growing up watching football, the Super
Bowl was generally a blowout.
Yeah.
The conference championship games were much better, but the league stepped in and fixed
things, and now Super Bowls are tight.
They're closed.
They go to overtime.
It's like, that didn't happen naturally.
No, no, no.
It's controlled parity.
Yeah.
And they have to do that, and I agree with them 100%, because if not, they're going to
have like baseball.
Yeah.
So the big teams are going to run over the small teams forever.
And we've got to remember, this is not a sports league.
This is an entertainment league.
Yeah, they changed the name.
They are legally identified as an entertainment league.
So the sports is the tool they use for the entertainment, so they don't have to follow
the rules.
They don't have to make it honest and above board.
They can script it just like the WWE, and that's all perfectly legal.
Even though you're betting on it, they're still allowed to script the game and determine
the outcome.
Yes.
Yep.
Yeah.
And we just got to accept that.
That's the way the NFL is now.
This is so they can't get sued where someone goes, I lost a million dollars because you
did this.
Uh-huh.
We said we're entertainment.
Yep.
Yeah.
And that came about when the Detroit Lions fan base filed a class action lawsuit against
the Detroit Lions saying, you're not even trying to win.
Yes.
You're selling us season tickets, and you're not even trying to win.
And the NFL said, we don't have to try to win.
We're entertainment.
Winning and losing doesn't matter.
We sell you the ticket to entertain you.
Yeah.
That's all we promise.
Yeah.
So winning and losing doesn't even matter to the NFL.
So it was after that lawsuit they changed the definition?
No, they had already changed it.
Oh, then they already knew it was coming.
It was preemptive.
Yeah.
There was probably a groundswell.
Okay.
They had smart lawyers who said, you need to get ahead of this and change yourselves
to an entertainment league.
Otherwise, you're going to be required by law to have fair, open, and honest games and
enforce all the rules.
Yep.
They can't make that much money that way.
They can make way more money by having something that's semi-fixed and run for entertainment,
which is what we have.
Exactly.
Well, their lawyers knew what they were doing.
Yeah.
Next one.
Hell, Pete Rozell was a lawyer.
Yeah, that's a good point.
He was the commissioner that turned the NFL into a multi-billion dollar industry.
Now it's multi-trillion dollar.
Yeah.
But yeah, Pete Rozell knew his way around the court.
Yes, he did.
He was a lot responsible for the explosion of football.
Yeah.
He started the big TV contracts.
And Roger Goodell is very good at what he does too.
I mean, it's not like baseball where they could find the biggest bozo to run shit.
They actually actively try to keep things fair and balanced.
Another strength for Rozell was he could interface with the judiciary system, lock Congress,
lawmakers to make sure the NFL didn't get nailed with an antitrust suit, which they
should have multiple times over, to legalize their unfair business practices, et cetera.
And that's where Goodell shines.
He can schmooze the politicians, local, state, federal.
And he has been.
To get the best deal for the NFL and hide all the nasty stuff, which would make us not
like the NFL so much.
And as much as I don't like a lot of stuff he does, I have to give him props.
He's really good at his job.
And that's defending the NFL.
When Goodell was, Rozell was president, commissioner, he was pretty much telling the owners what
to do and he was in charge.
And then once Rozell stepped down, the owner said, we're never going to have anyone in
there telling us what to do again.
He will always work for us.
So from Tagliabue on, the commissioner has been under the thumb of the owners.
Whereas up to Rozell, Rozell was the last one who could get in the owner's face and
tell him, no, you're doing it my way.
Because I'm commissioner and telling you fire me, you're doing it my way.
Doesn't happen anymore.
No, you're right.
I got the next statement here.
Browns just stole a starting quarterback, Brandon Whedon.
Much better than Tannahill.
Is he going to say something great about Tim Couch now?
He didn't get a chance.
Brandon Whedon.
Wow.
I remember that name.
Oh, he was an ass bag of ass bags.
He was the kind of guy that you thought, how the hell did he make it through college?
Yes.
If this is all he is.
Yeah.
What is he even doing being a third stringer?
Yeah.
He's just horrible.
Oh, just, yeah, he looks so clueless.
Oh, he was clueless.
It's like he'd never played football before in his life.
That's Skippy for you.
Wasn't that great?
And then he picked out Tannahill.
He's still working.
Yeah, he's still working.
Who held down the starting position and did make it deep into the playoffs.
Yeah.
Where Brandon Whedon, I don't know, he was probably doing selling insurance.
Yeah.
He was doing, hey, oh, you're Brandon Whedon, you were an NFL player, all right, I want
to buy my insurance from you.
He's the night manager of a bowling alley in Weehawken.
Yeah.
That's it right there.
I think so.
Yep.
And he got his job because his mother knew the owner.
Yes.
Hey, Brandon, come here.
Yeah?
Yeah, Mom?
I know times are a little tough.
But I got something, he's a friend of mine, don't ask me how I know him.
But he owns a Slug and Bug bowling.
Make sure you change out the urinal cakes every week.
Yes.
He hates a dirty urinal.
Okay.
Oh my God.
The next one.
Oh yeah.
I still think, I mean, I had to stop it because we're just going to keep going on and on about
that one because that is so ridiculous.
Yeah.
You can't help but just keep going.
I still think when Burrow is healthy, he's a little better than Mahomes and Allendorf.
That's another one that's fucked.
No, Burrow's another one of those guys who's got the natural talent.
Yeah.
But you look at the fierce will and drive that Mahomes has.
Burrow doesn't have it.
No.
Allendorf doesn't have it.
I'd like to bring this up on the championship game that we lost to them.
Burrow did not win it.
Mahomes made a mistake.
Just like Burrow's did not win the Super Bowl.
Do you think Joe Burrow could win a conference championship on one leg?
No.
Not even close.
No.
It is not even close.
It's not even close.
Actually, Allen and Mahomes is not even close.
He should have said Hertz probably too.
Yeah.
There's something extra there with Mahomes that isn't there with anyone else right now.
That's what makes him Patrick Mahomes.
That superior physical ability on every level from his eyesight to his hand-eye coordination,
to his feet.
To his mental preparation, his drive, his will, his focus.
He is just on every category.
He scores in the top 1% on everything.
Kansas City is so blessed to have him.
Oh, gosh.
Because wherever he'd been, he would do really well.
But his combination to him and Andy Reid, it's apparently unstoppable.
That's why Brett Veach gets a lifetime contract to me.
Yeah.
Because he was the main component.
There's other people involved like Nagy and stuff like that, but Brett Veach is the guy
that figured him out and said, this is the guy.
He did it so much that Andy Reid got perturbed and said enough.
Yeah.
Quit sending me tape, man.
I get it.
Yeah.
He goes, yeah.
He goes, I think we need to look at getting him.
And then he goes, no more tapes.
He saw enough.
Yeah.
Sure, Andy saw something there and said, oh, I can coach this.
No, no.
He did.
It was his footwork.
All this good stuff out of him.
Yeah.
It was his footwork.
Everybody was saying, this guy can't do it.
You have to correct his footwork and that's going to be too hard.
Andy Reid didn't.
He said, no, no, no.
I'm going to go with him.
He's doing it.
He didn't try to correct him.
He turned him over to Alex Smith and Alex Smith taught him the other basics and his.
Look at it now.
Yeah.
Four appearances, three trophies.
And also he said, he only lost to Brady.
That's not really that bad of a deal.
No kidding.
Yeah.
All right.
Next one.
Jerry Jones missed big on not drafting Paxton Lynch.
Whoa.
I hadn't even thought about Paxton Lynch in forever.
No, there's no reason to.
No.
No reason to.
That's surprising he would say that against Jerry Jones because that's where he goes for
all his opinions usually.
He's two down and he has to say something negative and he knows it.
That's all he's doing.
It's just a mouth candy.
Yeah.
They'll go, yeah, I had to be a little critical.
I'm sorry, Jerry, but look.
I mean.
That way he can attend these objectives.
And it's not saying anything bad.
It's just saying he thought he missed on that one.
And you know, Jerry would probably be like, yeah, I missed a couple thousand.
And he held that as a.
Oh my gosh.
Paxton Lynch.
Yep.
And then I have a side note on this.
Literally hundreds more people than he is.
And he's going to be like, yeah, I missed a couple thousand.
And he held that as a.
Oh my gosh.
Paxton Lynch.
Yep.
And then I have a side note on this, literally hundreds more, but me and Topher have to be
home sometime today.
Yeah.
Yep.
So the next one is they're not so many of them because a lot of them are like really
close.
Yeah.
They're a slightly different statement.
And if you read them out, they're not that far different.
So it's like there's like eight of these.
But he gives you some good variations on those top eight.
Yes, he does.
So it's Chris Collins worth and people are calling him out saying he's homoerotic statements
constantly.
And I'll leave this up to everyone else whether they think or not.
But I know what I think.
Man, look at that backfield.
The guy gets double teamed and deeply penetrated.
Are you listening to what you're saying?
Can you hear the words coming out of your mouth?
Obviously not.
I don't know.
That would be something you hear in a gay porn.
Yeah.
That would not be something you hear in a football game.
Oh my gosh.
Yeah.
And you know, he's been doing this for years and years and years.
Yes.
So it's not like he's making rookie mistakes.
He pretty much knows what he's saying.
People would have to notice.
Yeah.
They would have to notice.
I mean, that statement right there, would you and me not look at each other and go,
did he just say that?
Definitely double take material.
Yeah.
There's no way that you and I could be watching a football game and just go, yeah, okay.
We'd be like, hey, wait a minute.
Yeah.
He's the kind of guy that no matter what he says, you can usually add, that's what she
said.
Yeah.
And it would be funny because he says so many inappropriate things.
Yeah, that's true.
Hello.
How are you doing?
You got anything you want to say?
No.
Okay.
All right.
So yeah, I mean, that was like the first one.
And Eddie, I'll go into the second one a little bit later because yeah, there's some younger
people here.
So yeah.
Eddie, we got a really nice day here in Kansas City.
What do you think it is, about 73 degrees and sunshine?
It was 60 when I woke up this morning.
60.
That's like fall.
I like fall, so I'm ready for fall.
Oh, I am too.
That's my favorite season.
The worst thing with fall is, okay, that's not me.
The worst thing about fall is winter follows it.
Yes.
If we could go from fall right into spring, I'd be cool with that.
I'd be great with that.
I'd like fall and then fall again and then spring.
Yeah, yeah.
Three falls and one spring.
Yeah.
Skip summer too.
It's overrated.
Yeah, it's overrated.
Yeah.
It's bullshit.
All right.
Now, the second one here.
How would you like a big, you mentioned this before too, how would you like a big load
of Landon Dickerson coming down your throat?
Oh, she's so bad.
Even Al Michael stopped and said, wait a minute.
I know.
You can hear the, you can hear the, you can hear Al Michael's like going, shit.
And they're on a seven second delay.
So you know that guy could have hit that kill button and that never made it to air, so they
let it air.
I'm sure as soon as Al Michael took a piss break, he went over to that guy and said,
use that seven second delay.
Oh God.
You know, like the wardrobe malfunction when Janet Jackson's breast was exposed.
Yes.
They're on a seven second delay.
They could have cut that.
They could have cut it.
They chose not to.
They could have.
They did, yeah.
And CBS was the CBS at the time.
Yes.
They got like a little tiny slap on the wrist.
Fairly.
And then every morning show in the world got fucking fines.
Yeah.
Or even fired.
Yep.
Which is bullshit.
Yeah.
They had nothing to do with it.
Nothing.
They had to come down on Justin Timberlake and Janet Jackson.
Yes.
Yeah.
And then they said it was a wardrobe malfunction because they couldn't admit it was staged.
Yeah.
Yep.
And then- From my perspective, this television network
has the ultimate responsibility.
It's got- Because they had seven whole seconds to decide to
hit that kill button and they didn't.
So what if some little kid goes out and rips out off some little girl's top?
Yeah.
They always talk about how, oh well, it influences the youth.
Well, there you go.
All righty then.
Let's hope CBS is accountable.
You know it had to have happened somewhere.
Yeah.
Right?
At least a couple of times.
Yeah.
It's too bad they didn't make a big deal out of that and go, hey, he saw that on your Super
Bowl.
I don't know.
Remember the good old days when corporations could actually be taken to court and tried
in front of a judge and a jury?
Yes.
Yeah.
Too bad that doesn't happen anymore.
Anymore is just arbitration.
Yeah.
It's all it ever is.
It's just like, oh, it looks good.
So everything can be hidden.
It's just like, oh, I'm going to get out of this.
But yeah, open court never happens anymore.
And probably pre-negotiated deals.
Yeah.
Like, okay, here's the ratings we're looking at.
So let's just figure out how we're going to get it done.
Yeah.
You've got to, you know, a business will say, okay, we're going to go do this.
But if we get caught, what's our financial exposure on it?
Risk versus reward.
Yeah.
That's all they look at anymore.
So I'm sure they know going in, okay, potentially we would have to pay somewhere between this
amount and that amount.
So that makes it worth it.
Let's go for it.
Yes.
Yeah.
So what about all the people that will die from it?
Not my deal.
And they know it'll be settled in arbitration and none of the details in fact look at that.
They're not going to get charged for putting out a product that hurts people?
No.
All right.
The next one.
The San Francisco wide receiver sure are thick.
Huh?
Yeah.
What is he trying to tell us here?
Uh, that's a statement.
Like I don't know how he could have meant that except something like everybody knows
they're thick.
Everyone knows they're big guys.
Is he trying to say they have depth, the wide receiver?
Is he trying to say they're actually physically thick people?
And is that a good thing or a bad thing?
It just, wow.
It sounds very peculiar.
You know for somebody who's being paid to speak on television to millions of people,
you got to kind of make sense most of the time and that doesn't make sense.
That was homo ambiguous.
Yes.
And it's like I'm pretty sure what it sounds like but I'm not sure exactly what it sounds
like.
Maybe he meant thick as in T-H-I-C-C.
Uh, it's Chris Collins word, probably not.
No, I don't know.
I don't know how he meant it but that got a lot of riz on the internet.
A lot of people were like, ah.
Was he looking at their thick booties and their big eyes?
Could have.
I think it was racist.
No.
Is Chris Collins worth saying he likes a nice thick tight end?
Yeah.
Now that would have been better.
That would have been better, yeah.
So he got a lot of flack on that one.
It isn't his best one.
It isn't the most obvious but it is something you'd be like, why would he say that?
Raise your eyebrow at least.
Now this one's even worse on that.
Let's ride?
He's riding alright.
They didn't tell what context it said.
Okay.
But that together?
Well that was what Russell Wilson was saying on last season when he was in Denver.
Broncos nation, let's ride.
And then they'd go out and suck.
And then he-
Maybe that was in reference to that.
Yeah, and then the next press conference, hey Bronco nation, let's ride.
And then they'd go out and screw up again.
And then there were memes showing four Broncos like tumbled down into a creek bed on its
roof and saying Bronco nation, let's ride.
So again, what does he mean he's riding alright?
No, he was saying fan base, let's ride.
So what is Collins worth trying to say?
He's having lots of sex?
I guess.
What an idiot.
I used to respect Chris Collins worth it when he was on that show inside the NFL years ago.
I put it like this.
He knows how to broadcast, but I don't think he actually really thinks about what he's
saying ahead of time.
You can do this.
Okay, that might be much better.
Thank you.
Yeah.
You're getting too much of an omnidirectional signal.
Yeah, we are.
I think that he's striving to come up with clever stuff, and he just doesn't think about
it.
He's like, oh yeah, yeah, yeah, I'll say this next.
Oh, those ride receivers are fucking huge for the guys.
But he says it, Bronco.
Yeah.
Okay, the next one.
Herbert has one of those bodies where there isn't anything he can't do.
That one isn't so much.
Yeah, it's a little weird.
It's a little weird.
I mean, you could say it a different way, like he has the physical ability or he has
the conditioning, but-
That's what most broadcasters would say.
To focus specifically on talking about his body.
Yes.
Yeah.
Yeah, I mean, like I said, it's not the most obvious one, but it's like, why did you even
go there one?
Yeah.
This next one's pretty obvious.
They just rode him hard last week.
Okay.
Yeah, that one is really, really-
He's got to know what he's saying with that one.
Yeah, you would think he does.
So, I mean, yeah, it's... Yeah, I don't know how... Okay, the next one is there's a guy
in the middle of something.
So he's talking about something, there's a guy in the middle of something.
A lot of people took that as being like a threesome or something.
I don't know if I necessarily take it like that.
Yeah, we definitely have to know the context a little bit more.
Yeah, they may be reaching a little bit more, or the context is obvious, but they didn't
put it down.
Yeah.
So, that's one of his only jabs if it's too deep.
I know.
They're like, oh, too deep jabs.
I've heard... I forget what an answer was, but on a kickoff, I've heard him say, oh,
he took it deep in the end zone.
Yeah, I've heard that too.
I've heard that too.
And that's a head turner, head scratcher too.
It's like, oh, okay.
And then finally, and this one, I just put it on there because like I said, a lot of
these things that he said are too close to mention.
He says this stuff all the time routinely, but they're only a couple of words off.
So this one, why not these young kids, they're only 22, 23 maybe, just look at their faces
on the sideline.
That's another one that you'd have to know the context to.
Because that doesn't really make sense.
Why not those kids?
I think maybe he was talking about they deserve the chance, maybe the backups or something.
It might have been like a blowout.
That's why I took it like... The ones that I got on Reddit, I couldn't read the whole
thing of context because it's just someone putting that up and then everyone commenting.
So the way I envisioned that was as a blowout, like 47 to three.
And he's probably saying, why not the young kids in there now?
Look at their young faces, 22, 23.
That's what I think he meant.
But then again, talking about Chris Collinsworth, who knows?
That kind of reminded me of something that happened this preseason.
I'm thinking it was at the 49ers stadium, but it doesn't really matter.
The camera crew, for some reason, was focusing on children in the audience, in the stands.
Not adults, children.
So you know how they go to a commercial break and they'll show a crowd shot of people cheering
and chanting, and then when you come back from the commercial break, you'll see more
crowd shots, et cetera?
Only children.
I'm talking preteen.
That's creepy.
Yeah.
And the first time I saw it, it was like, oh, there are kids at the game.
And then they came back from the commercial as different kids.
Like, okay, this is a theme now.
They need to check that cameraman's hard drive.
And then, and that was all the cameramen.
So it was the director of the show was telling the cameramen, focusing on kids, focusing
on those kids.
So the director of the program was the one deciding what camera shots go on air.
These ones need its hard drive checked.
I think the NFL was telling him.
No, I agree with you.
Yeah.
But, and here's the next thing they did.
You know, during preseason games, they'll do a lot of interviews on the sideline with
players after they finish playing, or the ones that aren't playing, et cetera.
Every time, they would have the interviewer and the player standing in front of the same
group of about six or seven kids.
It was just a cluster of kids with no adults.
Do you think that this was a push to get children involved?
I think so.
They're trying to present an image of family, family friendly, bring your kids, get the
next generation indoctrinated so they love football too.
Because baseball's doing that over in the Latin communities.
Yeah.
You know, they're doing really well down in South America, Central America, bringing people,
some of the Caribbean islands, you know, they're like really heavy involved in the youth there.
And raising them up.
And then, you know, in America, it's pretty much whatever you like when you're growing
up.
You're going to focus in on that.
Yeah.
You know.
But I remembered your story about being at the Aussie concert, and they moved a bunch
of you out of your seats and brought in the attractive people to sit in those seats for
the video.
That's what they were doing with the same group of like seven or so kids.
Because there were no adults around them.
And there was a barrier of empty seats around.
So they crammed these kids together and said stand here and jump up and down and scream
and yell while we're interviewing somebody in front of you.
And they, I counted, there were four different players interviewed throughout the course
of the game.
And every time they stood in front of the exact same group of kids.
Wow.
Yeah.
Yep.
No, that was particularly interesting at Kepler Arena.
Because there was a lady literally going out there and going, okay, you guys get over here
and you guys get over here.
But what I didn't see was the cameras.
Yeah.
So I'm like, why are people doing this?
And I was like, oh, they feel they have to because they're filming something.
Yeah.
So then they brought out the chick in the shot in the dark video.
Yeah.
And they started like body surfing her.
But it wasn't anybody that they didn't have there picked.
Yeah.
Body surfing her.
They couldn't hold her up.
Everyone, the people that they had there did.
But the thing is, I got to be in on it because I looked the part.
I looked like a rocker.
I had long hair, you know, I had rocker looking clothes on, you know, they're just kind of
like, oh yeah, he can stay.
Then this guy behind me with short hair and just like a polo shirt, get him out of here.
Yeah, he didn't look the part.
Yeah.
So.
Yeah.
And the other thing is it was filmed on Metallica.
Metallica was opened up.
Oh, yeah.
And then it was put on Dark of the Moon Live, their video for that.
I found that interesting too.
They're like, no, we're going to not interrupt Ozzy.
We're going to interrupt Metallica.
OK.
So when you weren't, it wasn't even Ozzy on stage.
No.
It was the videos, people reacting to Metallica.
Well, it was them directing, you know, going, come on, you know.
And so.
And oh, yeah.
And the ones that they brought had spears.
And then the ones like me that they just chose to let in it.
No, no, I didn't get a spear.
I wanted a spear.
Yeah.
I didn't get one.
I remember seeing a concert video of Foreigner from probably like five, six years ago.
And it was in a small club.
And it really wasn't a very big audience.
And I was watching and realizing, you know what?
They never brought the house lights down.
The house lights are up this entire concert.
And you can see the whole audience the whole time.
I wonder why that is.
Do you have a clue on why that is?
Well, I started paying attention that everybody in the entire auditorium, not even, it's like
a movie theater or smaller.
Everybody in there was young and attractive.
Oh, absolutely everybody.
It was a fixed show.
Yeah.
Everybody in there was photogenic.
Okay.
So, it was billed as a live performance but it wasn't a real audience.
It was people paid to be there and look pretty on camera.
Wow.
Yeah.
Wow.
And then like two years ago, I saw some show that this country music television was doing.
It was the same thing.
It was like all these big name acts who were set up just on this little outdoor stage by
a lake and performing to a group of maybe 30 to 40 people.
And every one of them was gorgeous, men and women.
Yep.
And they were also ethnically diverse.
Oh, okay.
So, that's not your typical country crowd.
No, it isn't.
Your typical country crowd is some guy with a neck beard and 500 pound belly.
Yeah, yeah.
And his wife with the saggy boobs.
Yeah.
And their little snot nosed kid with diarrhea.
Yeah.
Some sort of green shit coming out of his nose.
Yeah.
So, I mean the whole thing was artificial from the get go and they billed it as a summer
concert series, a series of parties by the lake and you know with all these great artists
showing up.
It's like you've already filmed this.
It was like the beginning of summer and they're advertising it.
It's like you're showing us the previews.
So, you've already filmed this.
Yeah.
And it wasn't summer when you filmed this.
Yeah, that's up Mills.
It's just such fakery.
I got a question for you.
What band have you grown to hate completely that you used to like?
Oh, good question.
We may have the same answer.
Who do I just not care to play anymore?
Man, I'm going to think about that for a minute.
Mine is not like true.
Yeah, I can definitely go with that.
I mean they ran out Mick Morris, okay, who was my favorite player on the whole band and
they backtrack and this deals a pat of they can't sing.
They became very obvious and very open that they're just going through the motions for
the money and they're not even trying to hide it and people are still buying the concert
tickets because oh it's Mousy Crew.
It's like okay that's fine if you want to do it but the rest of us are like just go
away already.
Yeah.
The people that are real music fans are like get them out of here.
Let's have something real.
Another thing that pissed me off is Nicky Sixx is the exact person he used to hate and
dog on.
Yes, he's turned into.
He's Mr. Businessman now.
He used to be like oh fuck those guys.
I'll never be one of them.
Okay.
He figured out how much it pays to be one of those guys.
Yeah, so he's one of those guys.
Yeah.
Do you have any others you can think of?
I got another one but they're not that good.
I'm going to go with the band.
That's a great one.
That's great one because you know enough about him like me.
You know it's music.
I mean, it was held as a guitar god and he was in some really great band.
He had all this reputation for being such a professional.
and being so awesome, but then you find out what a complete sack of crap he is as a human
being.
And he's never hid it.
Back in 75, 76, he was very open about his white supremacy, his hatred of immigrants,
how immigrants were polluting British culture and Britain should be just for whites only.
He was telling people of color to get out of his audience.
No, you're the one that introduced me to that.
I had no idea.
But that happened in the mid-70s and they covered it up very successfully.
Yeah, I liked it until you told me that and I did some research, but then after that more
stuff came out about other things.
I'm like, this is not a good person.
And then like five, seven years ago, he did it again on stage at another concert.
He went into another anti-immigrant rant from the stage and this time it couldn't be covered
up because everybody's got cell phones and can't record it.
But you know, they're still playing his music everywhere.
He hasn't been canceled.
No, he hasn't.
And I find that ridiculous.
It's bizarre.
It's like people can't stand to give up their hero even though he's shown you he's awful.
Yeah.
So I don't listen to Eric Clapton anymore and by extension, Gary Glitter.
He did that song, Rock and Roll Part II.
Yeah, that's the only thing he made money on.
The guy is an unrepentant serial child child rapist.
Yeah, he's been in jail in Thailand.
Multiple times.
Yeah.
There are several countries in Southeast Asia where he's not allowed to even fly into the
airport.
He's a class A predator.
Yes.
Yeah.
And why they still play his music, I have no idea.
A lot of the bigger events don't play him anymore.
No, no.
I was in a wedding last summer and the DJ played one of his songs.
It was like, oh my God.
It's like, you realize what you're doing.
No, I know.
I wouldn't have liked that either.
I would have went up there and said, hey, X this out now.
Yeah.
I would have thought he would have known.
Yeah.
Another one is Pink Floyd.
Yeah, I don't listen to them much anymore.
I was real high on them for a while.
Just all the stuff that I hear them saying and it's like, man, it's like you're that
miserable but you have one of the most charmed lives of anybody.
I just can't listen to that music and feel the same now.
Yeah.
I love it.
It's really weird to think of that.
It's like the Fleetwood Mac album Rumors.
Everyone was so dysfunctional and wasted out of their minds, but they came up with this
amazing album.
Yeah.
I mean, I listen to it and it's hard to believe that these people were barely functional.
Yeah.
It took a lot of amphetamines and cups of coffee.
And Stevie Nicks style.
Slaps across the face.
It's like get your ass up there and record, damn you.
And blow up the anal canal.
Yeah.
Boofing.
Yeah, boofing.
As we found out, that's called from Ozzy.
Yes.
Yeah, that is a good point because who in the hell would have thought that they were
just falling apart.
That album could be one of the best albums ever recorded.
Yeah.
I mean.
Oh, I've got another one.
Okay.
The Eagles.
Yes.
From the way that they're ripping off their fans and trying to charge these insane prices.
The Eagles are number one for me.
I just didn't think of them.
Yeah.
I didn't think of them until now, but I mean their music was decent and okay, but
listening to these snotty millionaires flying on stage and about how they need more of our
money.
Just go away.
No.
I don't want to hear you anymore.
Yeah.
Yeah, they can stop.
Yeah.
And it's no wonder they were so many different members and so dysfunctional and people hated
each other.
Yeah.
You know, it's, I think for some of the people in there, it was a big money thing.
I think some of the other people, it was more passion music.
Yeah.
And I think that it didn't mesh very well.
So I mean, Joe Walsh, you know, I think everyone just said he just kept coming out with music
and smiling and being happy.
Yeah.
And the Eagles were all there.
They're all being glum and morose and poor us.
We're victims of our own success.
And Joe Walsh is out there, life's been good.
Yeah.
And all that, he's so funny too.
He's just a funny guy.
Yeah.
And he's like, kind of like a Sammy Hagar that's just like, hey, I'm just here for the
party.
Yep.
I think one Eagles tour, tickets were like $2,500 to $3,200 for a single seat.
And there's no concert anywhere.
There's no seat good enough to make me spend anywhere near that.
If someone else wants to spend it, fine.
You go and have fun.
But no, I don't care who it is.
Well, Val likes Creed a lot.
So we're going to end up having to go to that concert.
And I was looking at ticket prices and the very special VIP treatment where you actually
meet them and sit down with them, $2,500.
And I'm sorry, Creed's okay, but I've never considered them an upper echelon band.
No, no.
That seems odd that they think they can get away with charging that much, that there's
enough people that would want to do that.
I assume that they are getting away with it because, I mean, we're not the first show.
I mean, we're way down there and they were selling them.
So if they weren't making very much money off of them or very much interest, they would
have canned in a long time ago.
So I'm thinking maybe $2,500 a pop if you get 10 people, $25,000.
Wouldn't that be-
It's amazing how everybody and everything keeps coming up with more ways that we can
spend our money.
Yeah.
Well-
A meet and greet with the band or this extra feature on your car.
It's like-
We have to do that because-
It's everything.
This is our main form of income now.
Yeah.
They have to do that.
Before they wouldn't do it, they're making too much money.
I don't want to go mess with the fans.
Yeah.
Well, I just sold 30 million albums.
I got mailbox money out the ass.
Get out of here.
Yeah.
I'm seeing big name actors that are doing cheesy ass commercials.
Yes.
For like little dumb phone ads.
I was like, what the hell?
And then I realized, oh, they did that commercial.
They can go buy a new car.
Yeah.
It's like, I feel like buying a new car.
I think I'll do this commercial and that'll pay for it.
I think that's the majority of it is.
It's like, okay, I can go over there for one day and buy a new car.
That's what I'm doing.
Yep.
It's like when James Earl Jones was doing the Arby's commercial, We Have the Meats.
Yes.
He sat in his house and said four words and got like bang.
He said the MP3.
They wired him the money.
Yeah.
I mean, I would have done it too if I was him.
I'm like, sure, I'll take it.
Yeah.
If somebody wants to pay for my voice, I'll take it.
They're idiots, but I'll take it.
Yeah.
Same thing I say.
If you want to pay for this shit, go ahead.
Be my guest.
I don't think you're very smart, but yeah.
We've always said we give this away for free and we're still overcharging.
Yeah.
Yes.
Yeah.
Sorry about your luck.
Yeah.
I think a lot of the listeners and people just really don't have anything better to
do.
So thank you for listening because you did everything better to do.
Thanks to RSS, I got a little bit more information because there's different ways that you can
do it and they give you different information.
Okay.
I'm just now learning some of the stuff.
What happens on our podcast is people get the initial interest and the reason there's
so many more downloads is they come back and download every episode.
So they like what they hear and they're like, okay, I'm getting ready to drive to Canada.
Let's go ahead and take all 80 of them.
Yeah.
Cool.
Yeah.
So I thought that was cool because they have a feature on there that you can go, okay,
initial download and then after that, it's really neat and it'll show you kind of like
the professional.
So really big in Borgman, Oregon, which is a shooting range for the army.
Cool.
It started with one person downloading all of it.
Well, let's see, one time they downloaded all of them and then there's like 30 other
people went there and downloaded all our stuff.
Cool.
Yeah.
I was like, this is amazing what happens.
It is.
It's so cool we can know about it.
Yeah, it is.
And then look at RSS and look at every, we're virtually, we're in every continent and almost
every country in the world.
Here, I'll show you a little example here.
I'm going to get on it.
I haven't looked at the metrics for a while.
Oh, take a look at it.
I mean, the metrics are insane.
It makes you, it makes you just go, how, you know, how did this happen?
Yeah.
I'm not dogging us.
I'm just saying how did the word get out so good?
Yeah.
I mean, we're not like paying for spots or anything or.
Yeah, there's all sorts of ways we could have been making it more easy to monetize and get
it spread out.
This is just kind of happening on its own, which is more fun.
It is more fun.
Oh, here.
Wow.
Isn't that something?
Look at that reach.
That's better than any FM signal.
Yeah.
It's like orange blogs completely covering the U S most of Europe, Middle East, Asia,
even South America, Australia.
It took us a year to get into South America.
Took a while to get into South America for sure.
Yeah.
And I was like, there's a lot of English speakers here.
What the hell?
But they're starting to come to bat now.
We have three.
I'm happy with three.
We didn't have any a little bit ago.
Yeah.
That's amazing.
All time downloads, almost 15,000.
Yeah.
Isn't that something?
That's something else.
Yeah.
That's pretty damn good.
And the thing is, is the consistency is growing.
That's something else.
Yeah.
I mean, it's something to really be proud of honestly.
Yeah.
This just kind of started with an idea and a desire and just kind of did this.
Yeah.
It turned it.
Yeah.
It must not be that hard to do if we did.
I'm getting ready to say, yeah.
I mean, somehow, you know, the thing is, is I mean, I never thought that it would go
to this.
Yeah.
I just thought it was going to be a little thing that we did here and there.
Yeah.
If we had like 20 listeners, that'd be awesome.
Yeah.
And we did.
When we hit 20, we're celebrating.
Yeah.
Yay.
So yeah, that's pretty cool, man.
I'm pretty happy with it.
Do you want another coffee?
No.
I'm going to go get another coffee.
No, I think I'm good.
I had some before we even came.
Okay.
Yeah, I had a little bit too, but I didn't know if you like a nitty-nitty or not, because
…
I'll have to be offloading a little bit here.
Okay.
Yeah.
That's how it's getting at.
Are you about ready to go ahead and map this out?
Yeah.
That sounds like a good idea.
It's getting really popular around here.
It is.
So we're kind of having to yell to get our voices on.
Yeah.
voices on so yeah so I'm thinking turn it over to everyone else yes all right
did you really sit down listen to all that garbage that you're speaking do you
actually believe one inch of it I didn't think so
hang on game over
