Hello beautiful people welcome back to the extra spicy pod episode 5 we are now
in the fifth episode right Evan? We are yes I'm glad you know how to count
I do well we are now at episode 5 which is actually the same number as Evan's IQ
so let's go we're up to episode 5 Evan's IQ number. No it is not Evan's IQ number.
I keep higher than that. What is it 10? I don't know what it is. I've never taken that either. If you had to guess. I don't know. I genuinely don't know. Just tell me the number.
I know isn't like you see isn't like I know a 40 is a high number isn't it? What do you think? I don't know. I am trying to set you up. I'm glad you caught that. Otherwise you would have been most in years old.
I know it ain't fucking I know if I said 100 you would have been like ain't no one fucking way. But if I said 40 you would have been like hey you dumb as hell. So 100 is the average IQ. It is? Oh. Oh because whenever I was little.
I'm going to tell you this amazing story. My little cousin he used to think he was the top shit. He is not the smartest. Or he thinks he is the smartest but he is not that smart.
Anyways he told me he had a higher IQ than Donald Trump. And Donald Trump has like IQ. And he said Donald Trump has an IQ of like 43. And I'm just like I never took an IQ test. I still don't have never took one.
But I'm just like ain't no one fucking way you have an IQ higher than Donald Trump at the age of like 15. No. No. We are going to take an IQ test together. Like maybe a next couple podcast episodes. We are going to see who has a higher IQ. We did say that last time. Yeah.
Like 200 is like super genius level. 100 is above average. So like 130 is above average? Yeah. If you have an IQ of 120 you are pretty smart. But like over here you are saying you want a 40 IQ.
No. No. That was my cousin. I don't know. I don't know before you got an IQ. That ain't me. Fuck. Okay. Well anyways we are back episode 5. We are getting up there. Let's go us. Woohoo. Let's go girls.
This is why you get bullied. I do not get bullied. You get bullied when I come here. This is like your once a week bullying type session. You don't bully me. I bully you. What do you mean? No. You get bullied. I roast you way more than you roast me. Come on y'all. You get bullied. Like understand this. Like every time I come here you just get roasted. Even off camera.
I roast you way more than you roast me. Off camera you get roasted. I spare you. You spare me? I spare you from anything on this pod. You get roasted. I roast you outside of the pod. Okay so from the listener's perspective I'm just the one roasting you right? Yeah. I feel you. Alright. You set me up with that one. Exactly. To all of our listeners I just roast you all the time.
He doesn't get away with it don't worry. I promise you he does not get away with it. I promise that on my Indian grandmother. I don't know. Oh your Indian grandmother? I don't know. Who is from India or from? Is she Native American? Okay. Okay. Make that distinction. Don't be racist. Come on. Can you fuck off please?
I'm just saying we do not support racism on the pod. And if you're going to start to be racist I'm going to hold the fuck up motherfucker. Hold the fuck up. What what what? Get it. You hate anybody that is from Philadelphia. That's not racism. That is not racism.
I was like so let me get this straight. It doesn't matter if they're white, black, Asian, whatever as long as they're from Philadelphia. I accept people of all races. That's not racism. It's a geographic location type thing. So I'm like serious. So I don't know. Make up something down here but what? See that's dumber than anything I've ever fucking heard. But you know what we gotta get to the top.
This is the extra spicy pod. Meaning we give extra spicy takes. I give my spicy takes you give your spicy takes right? Yeah. It's a give and take situation. Yeah but like I never heard of anyone be like oh man I hate Antarctica. The motherfuckers in Antarctica.
I'm just using it for as an example Landon. This man needs to get his facts straight. No. Yeah. You need to be smart on your facts. I'm a schoolie. I'm a schoolie. No no you're definitely not. But like that's like me being like oh I hate people. I hate people that live in Florida. Why would you hate people from Florida?
And I give you like two fucking reasons that are like oh man the food's not good down there and the people are just annoying. Just and the sports teams they're just annoying. But that's a whole state. A city is easier to pinpoint you know the culture of that city.
Florida is a state. Florida is a big state. Orlando is different than Miami. It's different than Jacksonville. It's different than Tampa. You have lots of different areas. Look I genuinely do not care. I know you're the geographical nerd in this room right now. You can probably tell me we're fucking.
Yucatan is from fucking what Anthony Everett said. Yeah the Yucatan. Yeah I know about the Yucatan. I am a geography nerd. I'll admit it. On the pod I'll admit it. Bro you've been a geography nerd since you were like what five fucking fifth grade?
I was five in fifth grade. Yes I was five years old in fifth grade. No I'm in fifth grade. You probably do have an IQ of four. No I don't. Yeah. If I had an IQ of four you know what I'd be doing right now? What? What? Go ahead. What's this? I don't know how to work it. That'd be the IQ of four. There you go being a blist man. Come on. You gotta be burning that. I'm going to beat your ass up. That's not even a question.
We need to get on these topics. Fuck that. Alright well enough of an intro. He just says fuck it let's get into it. Okay. Taking authority over here. Taking the what? Authority right? You're like grabbing it. I'm not going to say what Trump says. Don't do that motion again. Please no. Okay.
NBA regular season award. We talked about this in the prior so it's about like the first half of the year. But now we have the NBA season wrapping up so the award is going to be given out in the next month, month and a half. So what do we think of our like who do we think?
Rookie of the year is the easiest one of all time right? It's obviously no doubt Wimby. I agree with that one. Like after like the first like the like literally ever since near the end of the season. Ever since the near the season.
In the beginning of the season it was like check versus Wimby. But now it's just 100% Wimby. He's done some amazing things this rookie season that we never saw until probably since probably Shaq honestly. He's been amazing.
He's just a rookie. Think about how good the Spurs could be in two years. The next season they should have the ground paint. But in two years the Spurs with Wimby they're going to be a really good team. I've seen some of the mock drafts where they're planning to go after who was it? Zach Eady in the draft.
Well if they do that they'd have Zach Eady playing probably Power Ford or and Wimby playing center or they could switch it up. Either way that's a deadly combo. That'd be really cozy. I mean rookie of the year is obvious right?
Rookie of the year is absolutely obvious. Because you know when we put the quadruple double numbers on the Spurs team that you know isn't doing much. I saw that one play where the Hornets were playing the Spurs and they had a 3 on 1. The Hornets were attacking the basket. It was just Wimby back there. And they were afraid of who was going to take the basket.
Most people that train NBA basketball they're not really prepared for that. But whenever they do do something like that though. That's why if you watch training videos they'll have the little long ass arms. And they'll try to do the little spot things. So you've got to be creative about it.
I think that's actually pretty cool. But that cut down shows you how many people actually prepare for that and how many of them don't.
Right. You can't prepare for Wimby. Wimby's could be taller than any guy with his tall things. Wimby's a tall dude.
Okay. So 6th man of the year. Who do we think is the 6th man of the year? 6th man of the year. That's one of the wars I don't really care much about. It's like whatever war. I think that maybe Nazarino in it. I think my pick's Nazarino but I don't really care that much about that award.
So you are on track with that. DraftKings does have Nazarino as a contender. Oh bro give me your opinion. I'm not drafting your opinion. I'm just saying. I'm not inventing. This motherfucker Russian.
I'm asking for your opinion. I don't want you to give me DraftKings' opinion. I'm not giving you DraftKings' opinion. I'm about to give you my opinion. This is the Evan and Elaine part. All the DraftKings in the mid-pod. If DraftKings would love to sponsor me so I can bet more that would be amazing.
No I don't want to sponsorship a DraftKings. You want though. Anyways. But I'm just saying as in betting wise they have Nazarino but in a personal basketball perspective I think it should be Nazarino too. Just like whatever we went to go see the Timberwolves. Nazarino's just cooking us.
Who are other candidates for that award? Malik Monk. Malik Monk. But I think he got hurt though I think. I mean again that's an award I don't really care about that much. I'm just giving it out to you.
I'm cool with either one. I feel like both of them put in work for either one of them to be the award winner. But what about defensive play of the year? Probably going to be Malik. So I'm going to say this. So I don't know who the other candidates for this award are but I'm getting all my information from the New York Post.
Bear with me guys. Because yeah I don't know all the votes of who's going to get voted on and stuff. But from what it's looking like they say that Rudy Gobert is going to be the fifth player.
Yeah he's the candidate to win it again. And they also got Victor as like plus 950 so if you actually want to lose your money you can bet on Wendy.
Yo Wendy winning the defensive play of the year award in his first year that would have been pretty crazy. I'm actually rooting for that. I don't think that will happen. I don't think it's going to happen either.
Because I don't like Gobert. I'm not a Rudy Gobert fan. I'm not either. I don't want to. I would much rather see Ben winning. He's not going to win. But Ben maybe should win.
My thing with Rudy though is that he's always on a team that he's protected by if you ever notice that. Think about it. That Utah team. That Utah team was really fucking good.
So he had to be a fucking defensive player. Last season he wasn't even that good. I felt like he was getting clubbed last season. They practically had the same team last season.
But this season though they actually did good. Ant-Man actually had to step up though.
Anthony Edwards has bought out absolutely this season. The most improved player. They got two people in here. They got Tyrese Maxey and they got Kobe White.
If I were to pick someone for this award, I'm picking Anthony Edwards. Anthony Edwards? If I was picking someone. If he was in the voting.
Anthony Edwards was good last year. Whereas Tyrese Maxey, Kobe White, they weren't that good last year.
But Anthony Edwards has improved this season than he did last season. Yeah. Yeah. Think about it.
We've rarely heard of Anthony Edwards like 50 point game, 40 point game. He's popping it off. I mean I'm a huge fan of Anthony Edwards. I'll put it out there.
I like Anthony Edwards. Why? Anthony Edwards, Luke Goeb, those are like two of my favorite NBA players. Non-heat NBA players.
So we didn't actually do this one last time. So we got the NBA Clutch Player of the Year Award.
Okay. All these awards, they didn't really matter. Like these aren't the big time awards.
The Clutch Player Award, I mean they say Seth is going to get it. I do believe Seth is going to get it. I don't know why.
I don't really follow up on this award. I don't know what it would take for someone to get this award.
So Clutch is like. I know you got to be like. Yeah. Game winning scenarios.
Yeah. The last five minutes being in a close like five point game and for you to go off in the last five minutes in close games.
I think that's how they determined this award. But the New Yorker even said this award doesn't really make sense.
And the NBA should define the basis of the award more clearly.
Okay. Well you could say that about just about any award. You could say that about the MVP. You got to clearly define what the MVP is.
No, because the MVP has like more. If you like. I know what it's saying. It's saying like the MVP.
Think about the MVP. I mean I. But the thing is about the MVP though. People just create many different narratives for the MVP though.
Yeah. Think about it. Let's just say. Is it the best player on the best team or is it the most valuable player on any team?
Regardless of the winning percentage. You see what I'm talking about. Because like think about how quick people are saying about Luke right now.
Yeah. And obviously that's probably the reason why Luke is not going to win. It's because his team is in the fifth seed right now.
Whereas the Nuggets one, two or three seed. They're all pretty much tied. So no matter what the Nuggets finish.
They might finish with the one seed. Depending on how the games go today. Nicole Jokic is in a way better spot to win it.
Just because the Nuggets have the better record versus the Nuggets.
See. I do believe though that Luke should win the MVP. Because I mean most of them could win. So taking out the bias out of it though.
I do believe he should win it. Because one. I don't like Nicole Jokic. I mean he's a good player.
But at the same time though. Like if you have all this help around you. It's more about I should expect you to win.
Like I didn't expect this. I expected the Thunder to ball out this season. But I didn't expect him to ball out this.
But that's just like anything you do with sports I guess. Because think about it. Next season. Me and you are going to go into a little off season.
And be like oh man. Let's just say I'm probably going to get Bradley Beal. I'm going to be like okay I expected the ball out of Bradley Beal.
Because of Bradley Beal. It's just really the expectations of these sports.
So are you saying that the MVP should be an award similar to the most improved? That's what you're saying right?
Because the most improved player is a season by season like this player improves so much.
Whereas an MVP you don't have to. There's no expectations going into it. You don't have to have a prior knowledge of the player from last season.
No because think about this a bit. The most improved literally everyone is improving.
Not everyone. Some people are declining like Carlton Thompson.
I'm talking about like having the award. Think about it. Brandon Ingram won it one year and then I don't know who won it the next year after that. I don't think you can win it back to back to back.
Unless you are. No. No they don't give it back to back to back. That's what I'm saying. With an MVP you can win it back to back to back. If you are balling out back to back to back.
It just really depends on okay.
I don't see the NBA giving the award to Luka because his team is the 5 seed. He doesn't have as many wins as Van Dijkstra.
I don't see him giving it to Luka. I see him giving it to Nikola Jokic. But I see them giving it to Jokic. I want Luka to win it though.
I want to have Van Jokic winning it. I mean he's having an extremely dominant season yet again. As he does every season pretty much. That dude's insane.
So what do you think about Shea? Do you think Shea should get it?
No I don't. And they're not marketing Shea well enough to where he's obviously not going to get it. He's not being marketed as highly as Nikola Jokic is or Luka is.
The SGA and the Thunder as a whole. They're a young team. They're just now getting into being good. They weren't great last season.
They're kind of new and fresh. And a lot of casual NBA fans don't know about SGA. Or don't know a lot about SGA.
Whereas the casual NBA fans they know about Luka. They know about Jokic. And I'm not saying the casual fans vote on the NBA awards. But they definitely have an impact on the awards.
Your popularity is going to come into effect. And that's why I think Luka's going to get it. It's mostly because he's the double MVP. He just won a ring.
Jokic. Tomo Jokic. He's the looper. Jokic is the champion two time MVP. He's still got that little hype behind him. And so that's probably what's going to give him the MVP.
I actually predict the Nuggets to weepie. I think it's going to be Nuggets vs Celtics in the finals. And the Nuggets are going to weepie.
I don't think it's going to be Nuggets.
Who's standing in the way of the West?
I don't want to be a biased Pelican fan.
Yeah, you're being a biased Pelican. I can have unbiased opinions over here. Because I have this mental superiority over Evan.
Oh, this mental superiority. Like a damn fucking robot.
So you really think the Pelicans are going to need to unbib the Nuggets? Be real here.
I feel like we can beat the Nuggets. It's going to be like a seven game series. Don't get it twisted now. It's going to take a lot out of us.
But it's doable. You can never say nothing is ever impossible. Think about this again. A long time ago, when the little AD Pelicans were just now making the playoffs.
What did they say about Portland? Oh man, Portland's going to sleep them. Portland's going to do this.
And then the Pelicans down to Sweden, Portland.
Exactly. So you just never know. It's doable. You say that about anything. I feel like the Thunder can lose.
You do never know. If anything from last season taught me anything, the Miami Heat or the eighth seed, they made the NBA final.
So now I'm in this mindset of I don't care what seed the Miami Heat win. I just want to make the playoffs. We can win the tenth seed. I don't care.
All it is is making the playoffs. And I consider personally the tenth seed to be the playoffs. Because playing games, playoffs, they're the same thing.
I mean MLB has the wild card game to get into the next round. It's kind of the same thing. So I don't care where my Miami Heat stand. I don't care where your Pelicans stand.
I view it as you just have to make the playoffs and anything is possible.
Exactly. And so I do believe it's doable to beat the Nuggets. Very doable.
I want to be so sure of that.
I'm just saying it's doable.
I don't see the Pelicans.
It scared me. It does scare me though. It absolutely does scare me without it.
So the Pelicans are most likely to play either Dallas or Phoenix, right?
Yeah. No, they're playing Denver first round.
Or they might drop to the seventh seed and play Dallas, right? For the Clippers.
I mean a lot might change with the games today. Because 1-3 have the same exact record.
Well let's just say the Pelicans, they are in the playing. Let's just say they keep their seventh seed, okay?
Who would you want to face in the first round? I'll put it that way.
If I'm the Pelicans, give me Minnesota.
Minnesota really? I would have thought you'd say the Thunder.
Give me Minnesota.
Minnesota, interesting.
I'm not dealing with the Thunder. Shane gets too many foul calls.
Minnesota, interesting.
I think Shane is a free throw version. But that's just me though.
But I mean, Shane's pretty good. He's nice. But he gets too many foul calls.
But I feel like Minnesota because I feel like that is an amazing matchup.
See, the Pelicans don't have size. That's what I've been saying to you all season.
Even last season I was saying this to you. The Pelicans don't have the size to match up with the bigger teams.
Well, but the thing is that last season though we didn't really have Zion like that.
So that's why we didn't really have that season. If you know Zion, you can get better and better and better.
So I do think he's actually playing this season like we expect him to play coming into the NBA.
Exactly. So that's why I do believe that we can beat Minnesota.
Denver is doable too. There's two teams that fucking scare me.
What? Let me guess. Clippers and Suns.
Well, Devin Booker doesn't scare me. It's just we just need to play better against Devin Booker.
Just everyone else can do whatever. I just don't want Devin Booker going to 50.
So you're just fine with KD going for 40?
I don't care if KD goes for 40. He's got to do it every game.
Okay.
But no, I don't have the power to let Devin Booker do that kind of shit.
But it's more the Thunder and the Clippers that scare me.
Okay. My friend was like...
We can beat the Thunder. I'm just like...
See, I view the Thunder as beatable. They're unexperienced in the playoffs.
This is their first real playoff run.
Because last season was just a full playing game.
But this would be their first real playoff run this season.
They didn't even actually make a playoff run.
They had a playoff run.
They beat us. They beat the Pelicans. Exactly.
But they lost to Minnesota though.
Right, yeah.
So us and the Thunder both knocked out last season.
But I do believe though that the Thunder are scary.
But here's the thing though. I do believe the Lakers are going to upset the Thunder though.
But here's the thing.
I do believe the Lakers to overcome the Thunder.
AD has to play amazing four games.
He's got to drop 30 every single game against Shet.
I don't see the Lakers upset the Thunder.
If he's not bullying Shet every single time, which AD should.
AD's bigger than hell.
We don't know if the Lakers are playing the Thunder.
It might be the Kings. It might be the Suns.
I feel like the Lakers are going to get into it.
It might be the Warriors.
It might be.
I'm going to get LeBron Lee Bull at this year's lab.
He won't make the playoffs.
Especially since, what, he didn't make it.
Are we so sure he's going to make the playoffs?
I think he didn't.
I think he can make it this year.
I don't know.
Let's think about it.
They have to beat the Kings to make the playoffs.
As of now, everything's fluid though.
Depending on how the games go today.
This whole conversation might be invalid.
Look, I'm going to say this.
We're going to go off the standing before 2.30 today.
2.30 is when the West games start.
The 2.30 is when the Pelicans play the Lakers.
Well, 2.30 is when every game in the Western Conference starts.
Because every team is playing today.
And all the teams in the Western Conference are playing at 2.30.
Oh, well.
But we're going off the current standing right now.
Right. As of 12 o'clock noon on April 14th.
Yes. Like Layton said.
So, the 7th seed is the Suns, the 8th seed is the Lakers, the 9th seed is the Kings, 10th seed is the Warriors.
The 7th seed gets to face the Warriors.
I do believe the Pelicans will come out on top on that.
I hope so.
This is in the playing game.
As of right now, yeah, the Suns are going to face the Lakers.
In the playing game.
No, the Suns are going to face the Warriors.
No, they won't.
It's 7-8 matchup.
Yeah, it is.
Because, think about it, okay?
It's 7-10.
No, it's not.
You're telling me, get your facts straight.
Here you go again with an IQ of 40.
No.
You don't even know how the playing games work?
Yeah.
And if I show you up, you are never going to hear the end of it.
Never going to hear the end of what?
Because I'm right.
You know I'm right.
No, you are not.
Dog, you know I'm right.
Go ahead, look it up right here with your little telephone.
And be like, oh, you're going to look, oh my gosh, Landon's right.
As always.
When am I never right?
Maybe.
I don't care about the NCs turning into coffee.
Maybe I'm a bitch at coffee.
Go ahead, take your time.
We got all the time in the world, don't we?
Go ahead with your, with yourself.
Oh, you're just not realizing right now.
You're just not realizing right now.
You said the sun's going to play the Lakers, right?
Yeah.
You're just not realizing right now.
Oh, fuck you.
Stay in on the pot.
Make it official.
The suns will have to face the Lakers.
And who is right?
I'm not giving you that.
Yes.
I'm not giving you it.
No.
You got to give it to me for a Lakers.
Or, or here's what me and my viewers can do.
You can just fuck off.
That's, that's just the amazing part.
But okay, we're, we're keeping a tally of points, right?
I got one point because I picked South Carolina.
I got another point because I had the closer score in the men's championship game.
I said they only went by eight.
You said 30.
I get another point now because I'm worried about this.
Everyone can tell I was trolling on that.
Everyone can knew I was trolling on that.
You actually thought they were going to go by 30.
That's what you told me in personally through text.
No.
You said 30.
No.
I was trolling.
You gone by 30.
Exactly.
You said you've gone by 30.
Yeah.
So you want to tell me your actual pick then.
No.
What was your actual pick?
You've gone by 15?
Oh, because that was the final score?
I was not going to say 15.
I wasn't going to say 20 though because they were going to team up by 20.
But I was just saying 30 is just the fuck with everyone.
I was just looking at the games and everyone was in the report.
Oh, UConn is winning by 20, 30.
So it's like fucking that dude from, you know that dude that supports Alabama, Kyle Aguilera?
No.
I don't know about that Tiki talk stuff.
You don't know about Bruce Keene?
I don't know about that Tiki talk stuff.
Go ahead.
Oh, well, you know what?
I'm posting a video.
No, we don't have time for that.
No.
Make your point.
We actually got time for that.
Make your point.
Basically, this dude goes, I don't care about nothing but the tie baby.
And so I was trying to be like that, which would be like, you've gone by 30 baby.
Okay, so whenever I make a wrong pick, I'm going to just say I'm trolling.
Because that's what we do in the XFAC pot apparently.
Apparently that's what we're doing, right?
Look, we were in agreement with you, Kyle.
So like the fuck?
We were, but we were not in agreement with how many they were going to win by.
Look, okay.
We are going to get official scores next time we do a prediction, whatever the fucking maybe.
Whatever is coming next, okay?
So, but yeah, that was mostly our NFDA talk.
Wait, one more topic, coach of the year.
No, just give me your opinion.
I don't want to look up.
The Thunder Coach should not get it.
I think the Celtics coach should get it.
Celtics coach, Jones O'Leary?
But I think he got it last year though, so.
No, who did he get last year?
He didn't get it last year, he got it last year.
Uh-uh, I don't remember actually who got it last year.
Oh, the Denver coach, Mike Long.
Did Mike Long get it?
I think so.
See, you don't even know.
But who should get it this year?
I mean, the Thunder Coach.
You know, I wouldn't.
The coach of the year, it's pretty much the most improved team.
The head coach of the most improved team will usually get the award.
So to me, it's the Thunder Coach.
It's going to be the Thunder Coach.
Mark Danehaut, or how do you say his last name?
I don't really know how to pronounce his last name.
However you pronounce his name.
Mark Danehaut, I think.
Is that your pick?
I guess so, because I don't really,
I don't really care about the coach.
You don't really care about the coach of the year?
You're like anti-coaches?
I'm not anti-coach, but I'm just like,
I don't really care about the Thunder Coach.
But I know who's going to get it because of that whole stipulation.
Alright.
Alright, start of the MLB season.
Major League Baseball is back, baby.
Take me out to the ballpark.
Play ball.
Take me out to the ballpark.
Come on, Evan, sing with me.
Start of the ballgame.
It is you, right?
Yeah, exactly.
There's an IQ point for me right there.
So what's the score now on that IQ point?
I don't know.
I don't know what our score is.
We're just like, we're going to keep the score on this shit.
But we don't know the score before.
So in this episode, I'm going to also claim the team, too.
So there he goes.
I know what team he's going to say, too.
My least favorite team.
Go ahead.
So go ahead with your pick.
Here's the thing.
Bain, why are you going to paint over here?
I haven't been to any other...
Uh...
I haven't been to any other city.
Well, I mean, I've been to San Francisco, but...
I...
Like, going to all these other games or other cities that I've been to...
There's 27 cities in MLB,
and you've only been to one city out of those 27?
No, I've been to San Francisco.
I've been to...
I mean, I've been to Texas, but I've only been to certain parts of Texas, so...
I haven't been to Tampa Bay.
Yeah, some of these I've been to like four.
But like, I'm not counting, like, just me flying there and having a layover and then just...
Yeah, no, you don't count that.
But...
My team.
He's a Bain Wagon fan.
He is a Bain Wagon.
So, actually, I'm going to pick a Los Angeles team.
They may either be the Dodgers or maybe they...
Please go with the Angels.
If not, I'm going to clown you so hard.
Why?
Before the rest of the time.
Why? What's your team, Linden?
I actually don't have a team.
I have teams which I dislike and I have teams which I like, but I don't have a specific, like, my team.
Because I'm not the hugest baseball fan.
I'm just more, you know, semi-casually followed.
But I do have teams that I prefer over others.
And I have...
I don't like the Yankees.
I don't like the Dodgers.
So those are the two teams that I'm against.
The number one team I don't like is the Dodgers.
I cannot stand the Dodgers at all.
I'm like anti-Dodgers, you know?
You might be a Dodgers fan just to fight them.
Exactly.
Yeah, you probably do that.
Just to fight them.
I don't care if they're doing good or not.
I'm just a Dodgers fan just to fight them.
Oh, one other team.
Philadelphia Phillies.
Can't stand them.
What if they do?
You know why?
Do you obviously know why?
Is it just because they're in Philadelphia?
Obviously, yeah.
So what if they just were just forced to be there?
What if the owner was just like, huh, I might as well just have a booth here instead of
going to another state?
I don't hate them because they're in Philadelphia.
I hate them because they're in Philadelphia.
I'm shaking my head at this point.
But I'm choosing an LA team.
I don't know what team yet because I do like Mike Trout.
I genuinely like Mike Trout.
Okay, let me ask you a question.
Are you a bandwagon fan?
No.
Do you like the idea of being a bandwagon fan?
No, but I like the idea of fighting you.
Okay, okay.
Hold up.
If someone asked you, are you a bandwagon fan?
Just a random person from the street came up and asked you, are you a bandwagon fan?
What would you say?
No.
Okay.
So do you support bandwagon teams?
You see, I feel like...
The Dodgers are the ultimate bandwagon team this season.
Ultimate bandwagon team.
Just because she'll hate.
But you also gotta think of where they're at though.
Like, that's like everyone in NBA being a fucking Lakers fan.
Like, we got fucking people out in New Orleans that are fucking Lakers fans.
It's not because they're from Los Angeles.
It's because...
They suck the Lakers dick.
That's exactly it.
Dog.
Okay, hold up.
Bring facts.
Don't just say, oh, he sucks.
No.
Bring facts from here.
It's not just because they're in Los Angeles.
It's because the Lakers have a history of stores.
Magic, Kobe, Kareem, LeBron, Shaq.
And tell me, how many of those people are probably currently...
Like, they ain't a true Lakers fan.
No, they're bandwagon fans.
Exactly.
Because they have the star power of history.
Congratulations.
You speak my point.
But what I'm saying is like...
What's your point then?
It's a big city, so you gotta think.
No, it's not just because it's a big city.
Like, the Patriots from a big city.
You're playing in Foxborough.
No one cares about the Patriots anymore.
Yeah, when Tom Brady was there, there was a lot of bandwagon fame.
And it wasn't because Foxborough was this huge city.
Yeah, I think it's never just about being a win.
Exactly.
Not because it's a big city, but because they...
But look, I'm gonna give you a little insight.
Go ahead.
You know how you hate those ugly people?
Yeah.
I kinda hate LA people.
But you're a doctor, what?
But here's the thing though, I'm gonna tell you why though I hate LA people.
Because they're just like Cowboys fans.
But sometimes, sometimes they need to learn to be more realistic about it.
Like, I'm a buddy that was a Lakers fan.
See, you hate Lakers fans. You don't hate people from LA.
I don't hate like purely everyone from LA.
No.
They just dislike Lakers fans.
I don't just purely hate LA fans.
But I do believe though that like certain teams in LA, they're just delusional more than others.
Like, at least on this podcast I'm telling you, hey, I could be an angel fan.
Or I could be a doctor fan just to spite you.
He'd probably hate this. He's picking a doctor just to spite me.
And whenever people ask me, hey, who's your favorite player?
It'd be like, Lakers y'all.
That's, I mean, that's what I'm saying.
Shohei Otani is the reason why there's so many bandwagon fans in LA right now.
He is. That's off of the international age too.
Yeah.
So like that's mainly why the doctors are getting more publicity than anything.
Plus he is a very good ball player. He's a very wonderful ball player.
So officially, are you picking the doctors as your team?
We're going to have to determine that next episode.
Okay, you're not determining it right now?
It's going to be like a little drum roll. Like, drum roll please.
Okay, so it's either the angels or the doctors though, right?
Yes.
It's one of those LA teams.
Alright.
Because, I mean, but here's the thing though.
My buddy's been trying to get me to be a Braves fan.
You know, we are closer to Atlanta.
Yeah.
Look, I'm cool with being either an Atlanta fan, either one of the LA teams, or a Blue Jays fan.
Blue Jays?
I don't know.
Way up in Toronto, buddy. You can get there somewhere.
I can work with you with it.
I can't be a Yankees fan.
I definitely can't be a Yankees fan.
My dad has a Yankees fan.
Actually, no, he doesn't have a Yankees fan. He has a Houston Astros fan.
Astros are cool.
I have a Nexports Astros fan.
Okay, well, talking about teams I'm more like.
I don't have a favorite team, per se, but I'm more drawn to the Cincinnati Reds.
The Reds are the first MLB team I've ever seen a game in person.
I went to Cincinnati and saw a game.
So that's kind of why I'm more on the Reds side.
They had Joey Vito for years.
Now they have, shoot, can't think of his name, but he's really cool.
I might think about it later.
And then also the Cubs.
They had 100 years in between winning the World Series, the Curse, and then the Curse finally got lifted in 2016.
I feel like the Cubs are just a cool story to root for.
And plus Wrigley Field, what a great ballpark.
Wrigley Field are so iconic, so historic.
You can't help but love Wrigley Field.
I also thought about maybe the San Diego Padres.
Padres, yeah. I like the Padres.
Just because of Tatis, honestly.
Tatis is cool.
And then I've been joined by the Angels because they're the anti-Dodgers.
Right, the Angels, but they have Mike Trout.
They used to have Sharii Otani.
I like the Monkey.
I'm a fan of the Monkey.
So, you know.
But I personally, I might pick a team next episode of who I might root for.
I was gonna, now see, doesn't Philly have Bryce Hall for Bryce?
Bryce Harper.
I'm sorry. I'm just now getting into this.
Okay.
Bryce Harper.
I'm gonna convert you to a baseball team.
He's gonna do it before the end of the season.
Before the end of the MLB season, I'm gonna convert him.
It's gonna be newcomer.
But yeah, they do have Bryce Harper, which I do like to, actually.
Yeah.
I might.
Just to spite me. The Dodgers and the Phillies. Just to spite me.
Now, here's the thing though.
If I were to try to pick a team and it came down to those two, which would you rather me pick?
The Dodgers or the Phillies?
The Phillies.
The Phillies?
Cause you're such a big right-wing player and you pick the Dodgers.
So, if I just pick the Dodgers, you're gonna hate me.
I hate you regardless, no matter what.
You do have a very hate face.
A very punchable face, my man.
That's very, that's very amazing.
That's good to know.
Is it like a face only a mother could look?
I don't know what that all means, but sure.
It practically means like no one likes, no one like says I'm beautiful or anything.
Alright. Go back to MLB standings real quick. Let me see.
So, let's go division by division.
I wanna, you know, get my picks on who's winning the division.
So, in the AL East, you have the Yankees.
They're off to a hot start and they're really good this season.
They're much improved from last season.
They got Juan Soto, they got Aaron Judge hitting the balls, hitting homers.
I don't think he's gonna be as good as he was last season,
but Aaron Judge is definitely one of the best players in baseball right now.
Plus Juan Soto in the mound.
I mean, that's a really good team.
I think New York is gonna win it.
Yeah. Baltimore is gonna be so-so. They might make a wild card.
I think Tampa Bay is gonna be less good than last season
because of the Wander Franco situation.
And then Boston's not gonna be amazing.
I mean, they might be alright.
And what's the other team in AL?
Blue Jays.
Blue Jays, yeah. I don't know about the Blue Jays.
Alright, so then...
AL Central.
Yeah, you got the Kansas City Royals.
Cleveland, Guardia, and Victoria Tigers, Minnesota Twins, and Chicago Whites.
AL Central is kind of like a...
It's kind of a board division honestly.
They don't have a dominant team in the AL Central.
If I had to pick a team, I'd say Cleveland.
Just because they won the division last year.
So I'm like, yeah, I guess I'll go Cleveland again.
I was gonna go with Cleveland. Just to get that like their logo.
I mean, if you look at it, so Minnesota's worst from last season.
Chicago White Sox, one of the worst teams in the MLB this season.
It's gonna be the White Sox.
Terrible team this season.
They might relocate actually.
I'm just saying.
Detroit is gonna be better than last season.
I don't see them really making any noise.
And then Kansas City is like a 500 team I think.
I think they'll finish well 500 maybe a little bit.
Alright, so then let's go to the West.
AL West. Rangers.
You got the Rangers, the Angels, the what?
Marys? Seattle Marys?
Yeah, Marys.
Okay, Oakland A's, or just the A's now.
You know Oakland?
Yeah, we'll get down to that top later.
Or Houston.
I think Mike Trump is gonna prove how good he is.
And I'm gonna pick the Angels.
Angels have not made the playoffs in a while.
It's so crazy. Mike Trump and Shohei Otani.
They are the two best players in baseball for a couple years.
And they just sucked. It's weird.
And they just couldn't get it done.
But Rangers are obviously gonna win the division for me.
I think that's a pretty obvious pick.
I think Seattle's gonna be less good than they were last season.
Oakland were the worst teams of the season.
Houston's gonna be about as good as they were last season.
But they just have the defending champions in the division.
Which is gonna take it.
Did you know the Rangers won the championship last year?
You didn't know that?
Wait, I did know that. Bro.
Because it's so weird because with baseball though,
you don't know who's winning the championship.
What do you mean?
You don't have the repeats or anything like you do in football or basketball.
Yeah, there's a lot of parity in baseball.
But the ultimate parity score is hockey.
Hockey is so much parity.
But in baseball there is parity.
See, I already got my team for hockey.
We were just trying to get over there.
Yeah, we might get into a hockey unit and hit that up soon.
But I already know who my team is and I don't even need to say it.
Let's go NL East.
I think it's the greatest division to lose.
The Mets are terrible.
I mean they have good players but they just can't be good for some reason.
The Nats are pretty bad.
The Brawns got to a really bad start.
And I did not expect that.
I thought they'd be pretty good this season.
But they got to a bad start.
I don't really know why.
I think their offense is bad because people are injured on the team.
And then the Phillies with Bryce Harper.
I mean they're a good team.
But I think it's the greatest division to lose.
I think so too.
I do like the Brawns a lot.
Okay, so then NL Central.
Who's your pick?
Give me Pittsburgh.
Give me Pittsburgh too.
They're much improved.
I think they're going to shock people in the playoffs.
Milwaukee is going to be one of those teams that are going to slowly die down.
Like in the middle towards the end of the season.
Yeah.
And the Reds might make some noise too.
So either Pittsburgh or the Reds.
Mostly Pittsburgh.
But at least we already know.
NL West.
I think this team will have three teams make the playoffs.
The Dodgers, Poddrays, and Diamondbacks.
The Rockies are terrible as always.
Doing Giants run can be that great.
I mean but the Dodgers.
Shohei, you have Mookie Betts, Freddie Freeman, Clayton Kershaw.
Yeah.
Give me the Dodgers baby.
They'll win the division but they're going to lose in the NLCS like they do off.
They're going to disappoint in the playoffs like they always do.
You've heard it here folks.
Alright, speaking of baseball teams.
What do we think about league teams relocating like Oakland and Arizona?
So have you heard the news recently about Oakland moving and Arizona moving?
Like these teams moving?
See I haven't heard about Arizona moving.
I've heard about Oakland moving.
Because the fans have been doing stuff in the stands being like we don't want to move teams.
I mean this year a protested Oakland day at the Oakland Coliseum.
They were outside the gates protesting.
Yeah like.
Because here's why.
Oakland has lost everything.
Yeah.
They lost the league.
They lost their football team.
They lost their basketball team.
And now they're losing their baseball team.
So they're stuck with.
They lost their hockey team a long time ago as well.
So now they're stuck with zero professional teams.
Dying economy.
Shocking.
But.
But I don't.
Let's just say from a business aspect though I don't blame it though.
I mean let's just say Yale Benson dies and someone wants to move the Pelicans.
I wouldn't be mad at it.
You wouldn't be mad at the Pelicans.
That was actually a discussion.
Like a couple years ago the Pelicans might be moving or something.
That's always been brought up.
The Pelicans moving.
How would you feel as a Pelicans fan if the Pelicans decided to move to say Lane Vegas?
How would you feel?
I'd be pretty mad because.
You wouldn't be able to go to games anymore.
That's what I said.
You wouldn't have that hometown team anymore.
I'd be mad but at the same time though it depends on who is doing the business.
But I've heard some stuff like whenever Yale Benson dies like in her will.
That the only.
She will sell the team.
But the only contract loss in that contract is that they gotta stay in New Orleans.
Which is really good.
I'm not a fan of team building in general.
I think it's hurting the fans of the teams.
But I understand the point.
As a fan I'd be pissed off more than anything.
My favorite game that I've spent my whole life watching is moving to another state or city.
But as a business person I'd be looking at it as like okay let's just say the fans aren't giving us enough.
Or not supporting us enough.
So in Vegas you'd probably make more money than in New Orleans.
Oh yeah.
Because the tourism, the games will be sold out pretty much every night.
With the tourism aspect.
Oh yeah dog.
I went to Vegas and this was during the WNBA playoffs.
Go.
Ticket for like $200.
And I'm just like really?
$200 for the orange?
The WNBA playoffs?
Yeah Vegas is a tourist town.
So all these tourists come in there and what do you do?
Oh sports games going on.
Let's go to sports games.
Like that's why I personally believe certain teams are moving is because of business.
But at the same time though.
Oh yeah that's why teams are moving.
It's business.
I will say this though.
The teams need to do a better job of just everything in total before you move.
Like let's just say for the sake of it okay.
Y'all had a nice little run of the playoffs and shit okay.
And then y'all don't wait for the playoffs for a couple years.
Let's just say you don't wait for the playoffs for the next like 10 years.
10, 15 years.
That's not the main reason why teams move though.
I know it's not the main reason.
It's not.
But you don't want to feel the success.
I know but you also gotta think okay.
It's like it's not really the main reason.
But it's a part of it because you also gotta think.
The money's not going to be coming in as much as it were if you were making the playoffs.
Because you know.
Yeah.
You got all these things coming in.
But you know what I'm saying.
Like let's just say like I said you don't wait for the playoffs for the next 10 years.
You're still going to sell tickets.
I'm getting it wrong.
But you're not going to sell as many tickets.
Okay I get the point you're making that if you're consistently good you can have more tickets sold.
More people in the arena.
But that's all the business aspect.
Yeah.
It just really depends on how you're looking at it.
That's how odd you are.
Okay so you never really did answer the question.
How would you feel if the Pelicans just decided to move to Vegas?
As a Pelican fan.
Go ahead.
It depends on so much shit.
It depends on like if they changed the name.
I know they'd be like if they're like the Las Vegas Pelicans.
That just don't sound right.
Two.
If so would you be more likely to support the team if they didn't change the name?
I mean if they just changed the name Las Vegas Pelicans I'd support it.
But like I do believe though that like it's kind of hard because I never really had a team move.
I mean you didn't have your favorite team move.
Yeah.
But I do believe though it would be hard though.
Because at the end of the day I'd be looking at all the merch I bought and I'd be like what the fuck.
But I do believe though that it would be kind of hard though as a fan.
But I'd understand from the business aspect though.
Because that's the thing you like people gotta realize when they get older though.
You gotta realize two sides of the coin.
Because like I was saying the young Benson wasn't making money off the Saints.
And she'd want to sell the Saints to someone.
Or she's either going to sell the Saints or just move them to someplace else if she didn't care about the city.
I'll give it from my perspective then.
So if the new Orleans Saints decided you know they weren't doing too good.
And they were going to move the team to say Saint Antonio.
Like they were going to do about 15, 20 years ago.
Move the team to Saint Antonio.
Right? I would be pretty upset.
I'm just trying to think of it as how I would go about.
So if the team moved to Saint Antonio.
Let's say they keep the name Saint Antonio Saints and the St. Clairs and everything moved over there.
I'll be hurt because my hometown team moved.
I don't think I could still support the Saints if they moved to Saint Antonio.
I think I would lose my connection with the Saints.
Like you'd jump on another team after that?
I don't know if I'd jump on another team.
I think I'd just be a supporter of the NFL.
I don't know if I could get another team.
I feel that.
I'd probably do that too.
Because you're so heartbroken to the point that you don't want to support another team.
You just want to.
Yeah, I've invested so much in supporting my current team, the Saints.
And then that trust was broken.
So now what would I do?
I couldn't go back and support another team.
Alright.
Right? Do you feel me?
I feel that.
And that's what people need to actually sit down and realize sometimes.
This isn't a new thing, teams relocating.
This has happened for years, for decades.
The Rams moved from St. Louis to LA.
The Chargers moved from San Diego to LA.
You had the Seattle Super Sonics moved to Oakland City in like 2008 or something.
I know Seattle has got a team in hockey.
Seattle just, yeah.
They've got an expansion team.
Vegas got an expansion team.
Yeah.
But that's my hockey team for people that...
He's a bandwagon fan.
No, no.
He's a bandwagon fan.
I actually was in Vegas for one of the playoff games the year before they won the championship.
So just because they're good, that's your team, right?
Just because they won the championship.
I've experienced the culture in Las Vegas during the playoff games.
They won the last championship. You know that, right?
I did.
Okay.
But I have proof that I am a Las Vegas fan, though.
Name one play.
I don't have all that much.
I just follow the team.
But, okay.
All right, then.
All right, you didn't, folks.
He's an idiot.
No.
Let that be known.
I'm not an idiot.
I just follow the Vegas Knights.
That's the only hockey team that I genuinely support because I only know the Knights, the
Kraken, Tampa Bay Lightning.
Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck.
I can name all 32 teams.
Well, look at what we fucking do for you, Lamez.
Bad fucking Lamez.
All right.
Wait, hold up.
So wrapping up on relocation talk, it's very sad for the fans of the city that have to
deal with their team moving.
Like you were saying, it might make sense as a business move, but it is just still really
sad.
I'd say, you know, sell the team to a person who wants to keep it in the city.
Maybe the league should step in and tell the owner, you have to sell or keep it in the
city.
If you don't want to keep the team in the city, then sell to someone who's going to
keep the team in the city.
I feel like the league should start doing what the NBA did with the Pelicans or Hornets.
What?
How the NBA was owning the team at the time.
Yeah.
Like, some people are going to hate that, but like.
No, I don't feel like the league should own the team.
Well, no, they aren't owning.
Well, they own the team for like a little bit.
Yeah, until they can find a buyer.
Exactly.
Yeah.
But I do believe they should do that like a bit more now.
That's what I think you mean.
Yeah.
I mean, if owners are terrible, the league should step in and say, hey, we're buying
this team because you're such a terrible owner.
Yeah.
And then we're going to find someone new to the team.
Okay.
Well, okay.
So, the owner of the Oakland Athletics, he's a terrible owner.
He straight up is dissing the city of Oakland.
He's moving to Sacramento.
And then he's the stadium.
He's not keeping up with the stadium at all.
The stadium, if you know anything, the stadium of Oakland is decrepit.
That's terrible.
I'm going to say this.
Some owners shoot their fan bases like shit.
So.
Yes.
I was reading an article.
The Kansas City owner.
So, they want to make renovations to Kansas City Royals and the Kansas City Chiefs.
Yeah.
I don't know if you've heard about this.
Yeah.
About how all the renovations need about $800 billion.
And so, the Hunt family, which is worth like $24.3 billion, they're like, hey, we're going
to make these taxpayers pay for some of the renovations.
We'll put up $400 billion.
But the city has to put up the rest instead of just buying these renovations.
Because like, think about it.
Your team, do you know how much money they probably made off of Taylor Swift?
Oh, yeah.
Like, that's what I'm saying.
Like, just pay the damn renovation.
NFL teams make boo-koo money.
True money.
They make a lot of money.
And especially Taylor Swift's coming to your games too.
And you're the reigning champs?
Shit.
You should have no excuse.
I mean, they're greedy.
All these NFL owners, they're greedy.
They just care about, I mean, most of them.
Maybe not all of them, but most of the owners, they only care about, hey, I want to save
as much money as possible.
That's what the city paid for.
And they voted on it and can say, the vote can pass.
And the voters said, no, we're not paying for this.
So now the owners of the Royals and the Chiefs, they're going to suck our wall.
We don't want to pay for this.
But I mean, they're the ones that want the renovation.
That's kind of like, that's the dumb stuff.
Yeah.
But speaking of doing dumb stuff.
Do-do-do-do-do-dumb shit.
All right, so this article recently just came out, like, a couple days ago.
So yes, this is a newer story.
Disney is cracking down on the disability service that they used to provide for everyone.
So I mean, it is kind of insane.
So basically, if you're faking a disability just to get to the front of the line in a Disney line,
what is wrong with you?
OK, drive to the theme park.
Get out of your car.
Go to the front of the gate.
And when you get to the front gate, hop in a wheelchair.
And then have your buddy wheel you through the entrance of the park.
And get back out the wheelchair.
When you get to the ride, get in the wheelchair.
Get past the little guy working the ride.
And then get off the wheelchair.
Like, we're not shitting on Disney.
We're shitting more on the people that do this.
Because it is fucked up.
It is very fucked up.
I mean, till you fake a disability so you can skip people online, yeah, that's pretty messed up.
It is very messed up.
But then again, some people are going to look at it and be like, work smarter, not harder.
But hold up, some people would just say, because Disney is very lenient on it,
some people would just say, oh, I have anxiety.
That's my disability.
I have anxiety.
And they would actually go with it.
I mean, yeah, that's kind of what Disney's fault with that, too.
But I mean, I could say I have extreme anxiety.
I need to skip them online.
And they would give you the pass to skip them online.
Like, and I personally believe that, like, they need to, like, actually crack down on it.
But to the people that do fake it, though, shame.
Shame.
It is fucked up, though.
It is fucked up.
But at the same time, though, I mean, hey, they found a loophole.
They were just using it.
OK, let's think about this for a second.
What's the smartest way to fake a disability?
I mean, this is not just for Disney.
You can get a lot of things in, like, faking a disability.
Let's see.
The anxiety one was actually pretty good.
The wheelchair one was pretty good.
I don't know how else you could fake a disability.
You're faking being mentally retarded.
You're like, oh, good, bro.
Yeah.
I mean, I don't know.
People are crazy, dog.
DSA, which is for yellow-sided disabilities,
they have a return time for traction driving
and waiting in the center line.
So my old graduate did that.
He qualified for DAS because he had PTSD, he said,
and they gave it to him.
Like, don't legit just give anyone.
And so they're cracking down on it now,
where they won't just give anyone the disability service pass.
They have to actually prove it or something now.
Because really, my uncle went to Disney, and he had PTSD,
and they gave him the disability pass.
Now, I mean, I guess that's good for the person,
but I don't think that should be allowed.
Because that's not the same level of disability
as someone who's actually in a wheelchair
or actually mentally disabled.
I don't know, but the thing with PTSD is that you don't know
what can trigger it, though.
That's the question.
If he graduates with PTSD, how do they make it like that?
But if he actually does have PTSD,
and let's say he's standing in the wrong line,
it'd be better for him to get the essay in.
But do you see?
I'm going to prove that you really have PTSD.
Anyone can go and say, oh, I have PTSD.
I mean, what do you guys say? Prove it?
Prove?
I mean, for certain stuff, like if you're a war veteran,
and you'd be like, hey, I'm a war veteran with PTSD.
So should you have to show your veteran ID?
I think, yeah.
Just to clarify on top, yes.
Just add more facts to it to make it more believable.
Well, what about the people who have PTSD by war?
Who weren't a veteran?
I mean, they're probably going to be like,
I mean, they're probably going to be older.
Older.
So there should be a age limit?
There should be.
It depends on certain stuff, though.
Because like, I could go up to Disney and say,
I have a mental disability.
And what do they say? Prove it?
OK.
They can't ask me to prove my disability.
That's against laws.
That's against discrimination laws.
That is against a lot of laws.
But shame on the people that actually do that, though.
Because that has messed up on some people.
I mean, people are going to find loopholes and go through them.
Yes.
But that's just how the world works.
Bill Gates once said, you'd rather hit the lazy worker
than the hard worker.
But the reason behind it is the lazy worker
is always going to find loopholes around.
Yeah, she works hard and we lazy.
Exactly.
How would you crack down on that if you're Disney?
I still can't write my brain around that.
I don't know.
That is something for Disney to find out.
That's their own company issue.
That's their own problem now.
That's for us to solve.
Seriously, like I said, you can't go up to someone
and tell them to prove their disability.
Prove it.
No.
Oh, man.
That's messed up.
But you got the mission to prove it.
Yeah.
Prove it.
What?
OK, like someone goes up to Disney and says,
OK, I have an irregular heartbeat.
I have heart failure sometimes.
So I need this disability pass.
Prove that you have heart failure.
Prove that you have.
What are you going to do?
You got cancer?
Prove it.
Prove that you have cancer.
I am bald.
Look at me.
I've built your treatment.
We're not making it up.
I'm sorry.
We're not being serious right now.
But that should be obvious.
But if you actually do not have a disability,
we actually need to be sorry for you.
But if you're Disney now.
Don't be surprised going up to the Disney gates.
Hey, I'd like to buy one ticket to the Magic Kingdom.
OK.
I also have a disability.
I have mental disability.
OK, prove your disability.
Um, like how would you?
I don't know.
That's a.
Look.
That's just messed up.
You just got to laugh at things sometimes.
Yeah.
I do.
We do.
But I do believe that the people with disabilities,
I feel like they're going to make,
they're going to find out.
They're going to get away.
Actually, they're going to be given to a point where the people with actual disabilities are going to get through.
And people that are faking it are not going to get through.
But how do they do that?
They're going to be smart.
They're going to find out.
I mean, they have secret ways of how to attract people to certain food stands.
You know, they have the little smell centers type shit.
Oh, yeah.
So Disney smart.
They got that.
All right.
So this is the next topic.
We're going to USC talk a little bit.
I'm going to talk about some of the latest fights that was just announced.
So as y'all all y'all know,
Conor McGregor is back and he is fighting Michael Chandler on USC.
I think it's 303.
How does that work, y'all?
Didn't they just have 300?
Yeah, they just had 303.
Well, they have 301.
I don't really care about 301.
Oh, OK.
301 is literally Alex Pantoja and Jose Aldo.
It's literally not a good card.
I'm not really into it.
Those names mean nothing to me.
But just to do that ahead of time, I got Pantoja, Aldo, and Angelina.
That's what I got.
That's for any future predictions.
But I think Dustin just got announced for UFC.
You got to know your facts, man.
You can't come to this podcast not knowing your facts.
You're right.
Not bad.
Yeah, you're bad.
But you're right.
I mean, they just got announced literally 10 hours ago.
You got to know your facts, my dog.
You can't come to this podcast uneducated.
Fuck you.
You got to know your shit.
So they got Dustin fighting at 302 for the Light Heavyweight belt.
I'm going to do predictions for that.
But that's actually a really good fight.
I really do want to see that.
And they got Conor coming back against Michael Chandler at 303, I'm pretty sure.
And I got Mystic Mac coming back.
But I will make predictions on those later.
But I just wanted to talk about how those fights are actually pretty exciting.
So I can't wait for that.
We're going to make this a regular segment.
You need to sound more educated when you're talking about these fights.
Did you take chances to find out, motherfucker?
I saw something that Mike Tyson was coming back.
Is that true?
Is he fighting?
You want to know who he's fighting?
Is he fighting Jake Paul?
Yeah.
He's fighting Jake Paul.
And the rules are like there's no judges.
They're fighting with like 16 ounce or something.
I got to look at the rules.
But the rules are kind of dumb though.
Mike Tyson is crazy, dog.
He's insane.
I just know him from The Hangover, honestly.
But I just know Mike Tyson from The Hangover.
The movie Hangover?
I love that one part.
Yeah, that's where I know Mike Tyson.
I don't know about his fighting career or anything like that.
He's pretty crazy.
All right, so go ahead.
Don't take like 10 hours to look up your nonsense.
You have to be educated.
OK, you brought up Jake Paul.
No, no, no.
You brought up Jake Paul versus Mike Tyson.
That ain't no meat.
That's not a whole point.
You have to look up this whole 10 hour article about no.
So basically, for the rules for the Jake Paul and Mike Tyson fight,
there's no headgear allowed.
It's like they're wearing a certain...
Oh, they're using 18 ounce gloves.
Wait.
The Zoo declared that they are using headgear and 18 ounce gloves.
So they are...
It's practically an exhibition fight.
OK.
And it's on Netflix.
That means nothing to me.
I just heard that Mike Tyson was coming back and that was pretty cool, I guess.
I mean, he's old.
He's in his, what, 50s?
Jake Paul's gonna jump.
Draft team better have that.
And I'm gonna put all my money on Mike Tyson.
If Jake Paul wins, I'm done with this.
I'm done with betting.
I will delete my Thando.
I will delete my Draft team.
I will delete my ESPN bet.
I will delete ESPN.
You should, my friend. You should.
I will delete the Seamish Sportsbook app.
I will delete a bunch of them.
But why do you have all that many apps to bet?
What?
Because...
What?
No question.
That's why.
Man, you were all ingrained in this nonsense, weren't you?
So you were up to a little nippy section going around,
please give me God, here's my money, take my money.
That's you.
No it's not.
That's you.
I could have actually, with my UNC 300 pick, I could have won $1,300 something.
But yet you did not, and they're just taking your money.
They're just taking all your money.
They're just taking all your money in a split decision loss.
But I personally believe he did win that fight.
So therefore the judges robbed me.
Fuck the judges.
Anyway.
Hold up.
I was on Fandol and I put $50 in.
After I lost that $50 I said never again in my sports bet.
Well you bet on one.
Well I didn't bet on one thing.
I was just betting on a bunch of different things.
I was just in small bets, like $5 bets.
And a total of $50 out of all the bets.
And once I lost all the money I said no more.
Because it really is a scam.
It's a betting scam.
Betting is a scam my friend.
Here take my money please.
Nah see.
House wins.
The house always wins.
The house does win.
I'm not going to lie.
But it's just the potential to start shooting.
That's the thing.
Bro, you're not going to know 100% of the time who's going to win in all your bets.
Actually I'm not going to lie to you.
I actually hit for $112.
I saw.
They sent all that money back, didn't you?
Once you won it, you gave the money right back.
Please take my money.
No I actually saved it.
But I did.
I did.
How much money have you lost though?
You probably lost more than $112.
Do you want to actually check it?
You can actually check it.
No I don't care about checking it right now.
I mean but.
Bro, bring the facts Evan.
You got to bring the facts on this podcast.
Bro, how am I supposed to know everything about anything on this podcast?
Bro, we go into random ass shit in the box.
Exactly.
You got to be educated.
Get your mind right.
Be one with the universe.
Okay so let's be one with the universe.
Okay Mr. Beyond, let's talk about our fucking NFL Goos now.
Oh yes.
Because you have the worst takes.
There are spicy takes which is good for this podcast.
But they're bad takes.
Bad bad takes.
Understand this.
I believe Aaron Wrong is the Goose.
Wrong.
Bro how am I wrong?
Wrong.
How am I wrong?
Who's your Goose?
Let's hear your Goose take a bird.
Okay.
I have a very nuanced opinion on this.
And you don't know what that word means probably.
I have a very nuanced, intelligent, high level opinion on this.
Right?
Awesome.
So come on.
It's not that high thinking.
I already know who the fuck it's going to be.
Drew Bregle.
It's not Drew Bregle?
You dumb.
Let's go back in your corner.
He's sitting in a corner because he's in the time out corner.
Go back in your corner.
So actually let him talk.
So quarterbacks throughout the years, the NFL has changed so drastically.
It's an entirely different game than it was just 30 years ago.
So it's very hard to compare quarterbacks in different eras.
So I could say one quarterback is the best of all time.
But it's, like I said, hard to compare amongst eras.
So you had Joe Montana, who was incredible.
Dave Marino, incredible in the 70s, 80s.
But they played drastically different styles than say,
Tom Brady and Aaron Ryder did in the 2000s, 2010s.
Would you agree?
Yeah.
So it is hard to compare quarterbacks in different eras.
Now, that is like absolutely one of the hardest things to compare.
Because I can't compare.
Because who's going to say Dave Marino, if he played today,
he would break every record note?
Because it's a different league.
It's so much more of a passing league now.
Or he may get tackled like a motherfucker.
Because the pass rushers are faster now.
We may never know.
He could be breaking all the records.
He may be the next Josh Rippon.
Right, we don't know.
So the game changes over time.
So I can't compare these records to records from 40 years ago.
I can only compare how they played in the era, if that makes sense.
Good.
Yeah.
So I would say some of the best quarterbacks of all time
include Joe Montana, Dave Marino, Tom Brady, Peyton Manning.
I wouldn't say those four are the best of the eras that they played in.
But we're talking about the GOAT here.
Yeah, OK.
So out of those four quarterbacks, Dave Marino, Joe Montana,
Peyton Manning, and Tom Brady.
I could go in multiple directions with this.
So saying the best regular season quarterback of all time,
I would say Peyton Manning.
If you don't include the playoffs, Manning is the GOAT.
In the playoffs, he just folded.
He would go out so many times in the first round
and just played terribly in the playoffs.
When he had like a 14-2 season or 13-3 season,
following up the whole season, he'd just flame out in the playoffs.
Like what?
Manning, you were so good, yet you're terrible in the playoffs.
Why?
Why are you trashed in the playoffs?
He had, I think, only a couple of good runs in the playoffs.
Whereas Tom Brady, he's really like the luckiest playoff player of all time.
Oh, but you can't recognize his greatness.
You can't discredit his greatness.
You can't discredit his longevity.
He played for over 20 seasons in the NFL,
which is, and that's got to count for something, right?
No.
No?
You don't count longevity?
Okay, here's what I'm going to say about Tom Brady.
Tom Brady, I'm sorry for being a joke.
To me, Tom Brady is a good quarterback.
I will give him that.
But when you always constantly have the weapons like you had in New England,
think about it.
There was a stat that was showing that teams that won a Super Bowl
with not a very good defense, okay?
Like Drew Brees was number one for that statistic.
Drew Brees was number one.
Aaron Rodgers was number two.
Tom Brady was like four or five, but it was by worse defense.
Tom Brady has always had like a good defense.
He's always had a good O-line.
But then again, though, I can't blame Tom Brady for that
because it was just how the team was built and how they still kept building.
But here's the thing about Tom.
He's my goat in accomplishments
because I don't think the closest person to beat Tom Brady in accomplishments
is sadly Patrick Mahomes.
Patrick Mahomes might equal a Super Bowl champion,
and I'm rooting for Mahomes because I like him most.
Like he's got half of Brady's Super Bowls and half his age,
so that's the thing that kind of scared me.
But in accomplishments...
He doesn't have half of Brady's Super Bowls?
Oh, God.
He's got damn near.
He's got like Patrick got three.
He has three.
Brady won seven.
That's my half.
He's going to get a couple more.
We got to wait until that time comes.
I'm rooting for it to happen.
I'm a Mahomes fan over Brady.
It's going to happen.
But as in accomplishments, Tom Brady's my goat.
But as in actually playing the game and knowing what to do,
give me Aaron Rodgers every day of the week
because I'll tell you why.
Just make it go short.
Just make it go like a medium pass.
Not far, not high.
Just right.
Then make it throw a hail Mary.
It's like it's nothing.
And this one cookie can run out of pocket too.
And that's the thing that it's very rare that we see
because think about it.
The next person that we have a quarterback that can do that
is Patrick Mahomes.
But then again though, Patrick Mahomes has a really good O-line
that kind of just lets him run around a little bit.
You need a good O-line to be a good quarterback.
I mean, your O-line plays a big part in you being a good quarterback.
We like the big boys.
We do.
I think we said that before in the pot that we support the big boys.
We support the big boys.
Yes, sir.
So I would argue that it's bad.
The whole conversation is bad because like I was saying,
there's so many different errors.
So let's just compare the error we're in now, like the 2010s, 2020s.
And we've been able to actually watch these quarterbacks with our eyes
and see what's the best quarterback.
So what's the best quarterback of this era?
Obviously, you would say Rodgers, right?
I'd say Rodgers.
It's either Rodgers or Payton.
Like it's literally between those two.
But I mean, we didn't really get to see Payton dominate in this era kind of
because, you know, he was...
Payton was a little before my time.
I only started following the NFL seriously at 2016.
So Payton was really a little before my time
because he was popping off from the 90s and early 2000s.
Yeah, so like he was before our time.
So like literally the one time I only really heard...
like whenever I was in the bottom of the series,
we only really heard of Payton Manning when the Saints were playing him in the Super Bowl.
Yeah.
But like if we're just talking like the current time that we've been in,
it's between... like are we just like going off like this generation now?
Like quarterbacks that played him in the 2010s, 2020s.
Like that's the, you know, era we're most familiar with.
So...
Because we're not familiar with the 80s and the 90s, you know.
Because I don't want to put Pat in there.
But I kind of like Pat though.
I'm not a big Patrick Willoughby fan, but I like him.
He ain't bad.
But it's between Mayor Rogers, Tom Brady, and Fashmore.
Because I feel like two of them are because of team-related.
But that's just how the sport goes.
It's just team-related work.
It is a very team-related game.
So the quarterbacks who are in the best teams are obviously got better accomplishments.
Right.
Like see, and the thing with Rogers though, is that he's been trying to get help for so long.
Like whenever he was in Green Bay, but like they didn't want to do anything.
The thing with Rogers, I would rank him higher in my mind if he didn't flame out in the playoffs as much.
See, that Tampa Bay game...
No, it's just not a one-game thing.
He plays bad in the playoffs a lot.
No, because like...
Almost every time he makes the playoffs, he has a bad playoff game.
The same thing? Okay.
No, not every time.
Because that's it.
Okay, that Atlanta game where they were replacing...
And that's something that Jubreese has over Rogers is Jubreese had, I think, one game in the playoffs.
It was a bad game.
You know, every other playoff game, he's played good in the playoffs.
So, let me say this.
The Atlanta game, the Dodgers couldn't do anything about that.
That was just a prime video during the Matt Rodney connection right there.
Okay, but you've got to put up points in offense.
Rogers does not control the defense at all.
You're right.
But he controls the offense.
So why couldn't he not put up more points for an offense?
Literally at that time, he had like a young Devontae at that time.
So excuses.
No.
That's pretty much what you're saying is no excuses.
No, because it's a young roster.
Okay, think about this.
If I'm a quarterback that's been believed for like five years, okay?
And you are my wide receiver.
And you are just now trying to figure out this, okay?
And you are my number one receiver, actually.
And you are in the playoffs where you're going to get stuffed, double teamed, do all this.
You don't think that I got to realize that you are going to get double teamed through all of that.
So I got to like try to do shit.
You got to throw your tight ends.
You got to throw your running backs.
I got to do other stuff than find you.
But whereas in the regular season, go long.
You get what I'm saying?
Okay.
So and plus at Atlanta, you had a really good like, you know, Kyle Shanahan is a good coach until the Super Bowl.
Dan Quinn was actually really good until that season.
But you know, that's Kyle Shanahan's fault.
Because you know, Kyle Shanahan had the biggest chump group of all time.
But I don't know about all that now.
He's no dog, really.
He blew the Atlanta game.
He blew the first time against the Chiefs and he blew the second time against the Chiefs.
All right.
That first game against the Chiefs, I wouldn't argue that he blew it as much as the Chiefs won it.
The Atlanta game, he absolutely blew.
He absolutely blew the Falcons losing to the Patriots in the Super Bowl.
That was the Falcons' fault.
That was not the Patriots' fault for winning.
That was the Falcons' fault for losing.
Well, I would also like to say that Dylan Edelman did make an amazing answer.
I don't care.
You should not.
You can't lie.
You should run the ball in field goal range, not pass it and take a sack.
And not be out of field goal range.
There was some very questionable decisions made by the Falcons.
Made by Kyle Shanahan.
But then literally the Super Bowl, like, instead of trying to contain Patrick Mahomes.
Like after he ran the first one or the second one?
The second one.
Okay.
But instead of like trying to contain Patrick Mahomes in the end, because they were doing a good job like blocking a passing game.
Instead of keep obtaining Patrick Mahomes, like after the first round, they let him run again.
There's a clip of it and you can see Nick Bost would be like, what the fuck?
Yeah, I think that they actually had a better shot at winning the first time than they did the second time.
The second time it was actually a closer game.
It went in overtime.
But here's the thing, I feel like they played Mahomes better the first time than they did the second time.
I mean, okay, they were locking Mahomes up the second time.
But it got to a point where Mahomes were just beating them and they couldn't do anything about it this season.
But I personally think though that, let's see, you had the one year against the 49ers where he and Bost just ran for like four and something hours I think.
I'm a reverse of the Packers.
Okay.
So you can't do nothing about that.
I don't know how y'all can't stop one dude from running over the, he ran down and back four times.
Okay.
Listen, Aaron Ryder's in the playoffs flames out.
Does he not?
I will-
Versus the Giants.
Versus the 49ers.
Versus the Buccaneers.
You beat the Giants.
The Giants in the Air-Sea Championship, the game they went to the Super Bowl afterwards.
They were playing in the above versus Eli Manny and he lost to Vance.
This is in like 2011 to own the Packers of the defending champions.
Then the next season they played the Giants in the NFC Championship game and the Giants beat them to go into the Super Bowl and then they went on to beat Patriots.
But I'm gonna say, like I said, it really just depends on team stuff.
I mean they still made it to the playoffs though.
That's the thing about that.
But there, I will give him, if he has played some bad games, I will give him that.
I will give you that.
Like that Tampa Bay game against-
He's played a bad game in the playoffs.
Yes.
Jubreese has not fully-
Oh, like so.
Jubreese only played like one bad playoff game.
Yeah.
That was the last game in his career.
Yeah.
Right.
But I'm gonna say, like-
And still then he wasn't terrible.
He just, it was clear he didn't have the arm strength anymore.
But I'm gonna say this like that, that what was it?
Like that Tampa Bay game, that's where he sucked at the most because they had that game wrapped up.
All they had to do was just finish.
Like there was a play where like he, all he had to do was just run.
But like Devin White was right there.
All he had to do was just run and he could have gotten a little bit more yards.
But he also did the interception of that game.
Alright, so I'm gonna put it to you like this.
Okay, if you were the owner or the GM of a team, a brand new team in the NFL,
and you could pick any quarterback you wanted to, to be on your team,
and you had a decent roster, who would that quarterback be?
I'm picking Rodgers.
But see, it's kind of hard because I don't know if I trust my home a lot.
Because at the same time though, we just got out of a dynamic with Brady and Belichick.
We don't know if you know, Andy Reid and Patrick Mahomes are just that good?
Or let's just say, what are you saying right now?
Okay, you know how, okay, I'm gonna have to make time for myself.
You know how whenever Belichick and Tom Brady were together, they were dominating, getting wins, doing all this?
Yes, obviously the dynasty.
But then when Tom Brady went to Tampa Bay, what happened?
Tom still kept winning, Belichick was losing, right?
Yeah.
So I'm saying I don't trust Mahomes because, let's just say he breaks off with Andy Reid, okay?
Okay.
He could actually be playing good and still win a Super Bowl.
Or Andy Reid was like, huh, I'm actually really good at this football, and I'm just a great coach.
I mean, think about it, he was already a Hall of Fame coach before he even had Patrick Mahomes.
He was. And Belichick was not.
Exactly.
That is not Belichick's fault, by the way.
He came into New England and Tom Brady was there, or maybe he was drafted next year.
So it wasn't like he had the opportunity to have this career outside of Brady.
And that's why I personally think I'm going groggy though, because it didn't really matter that head coach is there anything.
It's like what we say about the O-line, if you give a quarterback a good head coach, they're gonna fall out.
If you give him a good coach and O-line, they should be straight.
Well, we can do two different ways. We can do prime or we can do current.
I would obviously not want to have current rogers versus Mahomes, but prime.
I mean, I gotta still see current rogers.
Because we don't really know what his prime was.
Because prime was 2011, right?
But then again though, he won the NBA.
2010-2011 was his prime.
But then again, those were weak MVPs.
No.
His late season, 20-21.
No.
Yeah, those were weak.
20-20, 20-21, those were weak MVPs.
No.
Yeah, yeah they were.
But.
He didn't have the dominance then that he had earlier in his career, did he?
He did.
Did he have that same dominance as he had earlier in his career?
No, he didn't.
Come on.
That's your god right there. You don't know his career?
He was dominant.
He legit was dominant.
And have you not seen the clips of just him throwing hailberries?
And they're literally in the receiver's hands just like this.
Like put your hand to the light.
Come on, put your hand to the light.
It's like the ball coming towards you.
Doug, you're not hearing my point.
He was better in 2010-2011 than he was in 2020-2021.
See, and see.
You would disagree with that?
I'm not going to disagree with it because I'll tell you why.
He was more mobile back then.
Yes.
He's still mobile now, but he's not as mobile.
No.
He's actually.
He's not going to be mobile at all after his Achilles injury.
I don't know about that.
I've seen videos of him running and shit.
So we don't really know.
Running in the pocket, movement in the pocket is totally different.
While people are coming at you trying to attack you.
But literally the main reason of his Achilles was because of the O-line.
Literally the first play of the game.
But.
That was the turf dog.
No one touched him.
That was a non-contact injury.
Do I need to pull up a play where, Doug, you can literally see the linebacker or pass-fucker just fucking.
The O-line literally split like the Red Sea.
And the dude was just like, huh, this is going to be the easiest act of my life.
Give me my paycheck.
Boop.
And I'd rather try to run out of it.
But the turf will have.
The turf dog did have an effect on it.
Because you could just see the leg just.
Right.
He's pushing off of it.
Right.
Neo-Jets.
Improve your turf.
Or improve your line.
Either fucking one.
I mean.
Ideally both.
Like.
He's my goat.
Like, protect the goat.
Fuck.
Like.
Do me a favor.
Please.
I mean, I have a good sign in my book, though.
I will keep that.
But it kind of scared me that I'll sign him after an ACL pair.
Like.
OK.
So I'll ask you this question.
So in their prime, they're pick-rockers.
What about current?
So if you're the GM of a new expansion team and you got to pick any quarterback.
Like current.
In their current state.
Who would you pick?
Isir.
Quarterback.
Rogers.
You would still go with Rogers?
Because.
I'm also going with Rogers due to the experience and shit.
Because think about it.
You don't have that many experienced quarterbacks now.
Everyone's getting young.
You got to think about the quarterbacks that have been to a Super Bowl.
That have been to a Super Bowl and won.
My homes.
Rogers.
Who else?
Blanky.
Yeah.
I'm blanky.
Matt Stacker.
Yeah.
And.
Russell Wilson.
No one's taking current Russell Wilson.
You just asked current quarterback to win a Super Bowl.
Yeah.
So Russell Wilson.
But if you were to vote anybody that lives there, even if it's a Super Bowl.
That would be named either my home or Rogers.
Yeah.
So.
I mean.
I don't know.
Because I know.
You have a lot of people that say Joe Burrow.
A lot of people would probably say Josh Allen.
We're talking about winning the Super Bowl.
Not getting the Super Bowl.
Winning the Super Bowl.
I'm talking about like winning as having a winning season.
Just winning a Super Bowl.
Yeah.
So.
It's like come down to like what does work.
Unless you're missing someone.
No, we're not missing anyone.
Nothing.
But like that's what I'm saying.
Like.
Oh.
Just awesome.
Is Nick Foles still in the league?
I think he's still in the league.
You go Nick Foles.
No.
I don't think he's still in the league.
He's still in the league.
I don't think he's still in the league.
I think he's still in the league.
Nick Foles.
Yeah.
I don't think Nick Foles is in the league.
No.
I don't think he's still in the league actually.
I think he's up for the league.
I don't know.
He could be.
But.
I don't think he made a bag before he left.
But.
Everyone's going to say either Rodgers or Patrick Holmes.
See I disagree.
I don't think everyone's going to say those two.
Like I'm saying I think people will say Joe Burrow.
I think people would say Josh Allen.
But.
I don't think everyone would say just my Holmes and Rodgers.
But.
Bobby.
I don't think a lot of people would say Rodgers.
I think that's a spicy tooth right there.
Because Rodgers is old.
He's not new.
He's not helping Nick Haley's injury.
Yeah he's 38.
He's 38.
He's not a great.
37.
38.
Not bad.
Tom Brady played until he was like 44, 45.
That's an anomaly.
Most quarterbacks don't do that though.
That's why you gotta give Brady credit for his longevity.
That he was able to play that amount of years.
I'm not giving that man a little bit of credit for the O-line he had.
I'm not giving him credit.
No.
Absolutely not.
Dog.
Absolutely not.
No.
Absolutely not.
No.
Absolutely not.
No.
Absolutely not.
So you don't think longevity should play a factor at all in the debate?
In the go debate.
Yeah but count your O-line though.
If Drew Breen had the best O-line, do you think he'd still have the throwing power he
would today?
Probably not.
He's probably still.
Probably not.
I don't think so.
Probably so.
He's gonna last a bit longer.
I don't think so.
His throwing power is gonna last a bit longer though.
Not that long though.
Maybe a little bit longer.
But it's still gonna fall eventually right?
That's what I'm saying.
I don't give him his credit for longevity.
We rarely see people do that.
But you've never seen someone play until 45 I think.
Maybe some old guy back in the 1920s or something.
I don't know.
But me personally, I'm picking either Rodgers, I'm picking between three quarterbacks.
Rodgers, Burrow, or Moles.
Those are the only three I'm picking.
Rodgers because he's won a Super Bowl, he's got the experience.
If you watch the Marnock version with the Jets on it, he knows what he's talking about.
He's not that much crazy.
Even though he's talking about running for vice president.
Speaking of that.
Wait hold up.
We're not done with this talk.
You just came up with this.
Oh my god.
Speed through the podcast don't you.
Hey.
So you need three quarterbacks.
You gotta give me one.
Who's your quarterback you're picking in its current form to be your guaranteed.
Robert.
Delusional.
Robert.
You're delusional.
No I'm not.
Yes you are.
I think I would pick honestly Joe Burrow.
He doesn't have the mobility factor that someone like Josh Scheller or Malones does.
But he's so cool man.
Joe Burrow is so cool.
I do like Joe Burrow.
Joe cool.
But the thing that only concerns me about Joe is literally his injuries.
That's literally.
See in my situation I'm having a good team around him.
You know I'm having a good team.
I'm saying what quarterback do I want to be in my good team.
I'm picking Joe Burrow.
It just really depends on.
Roger is going to fling around the playoffs.
No.
Yes he will.
No.
My team yes he will.
No.
But look it is 1.21.
I don't care what time it is.
Let us finish.
Good.
This episode.
Thank you for telling me the time.
I can look right here and see the time.
So that was a useless little comedy you just made there buddy.
But I'm just saying let's finish up this episode please.
You want to get back to Fort Nate.
No I want to get to the strawberry festival.
That's what I want to do.
So my final topic.
Why America is so great.
Land of the free.
Home where the brave.
See the US of A.
That was boring.
You gotta do that.
God bless America.
Land that I love.
This is why I'm a bully in the process.
Stand beside her.
And guide her.
I don't know what this is.
But.
I think America is so great because.
Literally.
Oh say can you see.
I'm going to meet him again.
By the dawn's end.
I think America is so great because literally.
We have.
You hate our national anthem.
Let this be known that Evan hates the national anthem.
I don't hate on the national anthem.
He hates this country.
He's not a patriot.
I'm more American than you are.
Sing the national anthem.
Oh say can you see.
By the dawn's early light.
What so proudly we hailed.
At the twilight's last gleaming.
Okay I'm not singing.
Because you don't know the rest of the lyrics.
I know the rest of the lyrics.
Who is the animal.
The national animal of the US.
Go ahead.
Follow the label baby.
Okay.
You knew that.
Yeah.
I'm more American.
You're more American than I am?
I am.
Really?
Yes.
How so?
I can just bro.
My family is part country land.
What?
Bro country people are the most American people on the planet.
No I don't.
What does that even mean?
Your family is part country therefore I'm more American.
That means people love this country more than anything.
You ever see like the hillbilly or something and they'd be like America.
America.
Yeah exactly.
That's what I'm saying.
But I like the freedoms that we all have literally.
I could be working in a night shift shop right now in Indonesia.
But I'm very happy and thankful that we do live in America.
America is a big country living.
I'm very thankful.
America is great.
And what makes us so great is our diversity.
Right?
People from all around the world have come to America.
You see Chinese immigrants, Indian immigrants, immigrants from Italy.
Why are you looking at it like that?
I mean and we also give rights to women too not only Saudi Arabia.
Well a lot of countries give rights to women.
No I was just making that as a recurring joke.
Oh okay.
You were looking at me all weird.
I was trying to think of the joke.
But I was waiting for you to speak into it and I was just going to be like yeah we also give rights to women.
Which is amazing.
Alright well anyways so we have so much diversity.
People come from all over the world to come to this great country.
And to make a name for themselves.
To make something out of their selves.
We have this American independence.
This American ideal of oh you can do the American dream.
You can work so hard and achieve your dreams.
Now whether or not that's still a thing, that's up to debate.
Because a lot of people would say that an American dream is dead.
But I still believe in the American dream.
And I always do. The millions of people that come into this country believe in the American dream.
We have so much diversity across this country.
You can go from Alaska to Florida to Maine to California to Hawaii.
They're still American.
They will look, sound, speak, eat so many different ways.
But they're still at the end of the day American.
And that's what binds this all together in this country.
I think you had your very amazing political speech.
But why I also like America too is because...
And I am announcing my run for president of the United...
No I'm just kidding.
I'm not voting for you.
You wouldn't vote for me really?
Motherfucker you would run this country to the damn ground.
Dog. Okay. I can't run.
You would make a stupid law.
Dog wait. I can't run for another 14 years so I couldn't run right now if I wanted to.
But you wouldn't vote for me as your friend really?
Look. You wouldn't vote for your friend.
I would vote for my friend.
It depends on what stuff you do. That's the thing.
You just said you wouldn't vote for me though.
Okay but if you're just like,
Okay we're going to build a wall in the middle of the country.
From the north can not cross over to the south.
Then I'm not voting for you.
Why would I do that?
You would do something like that.
No. Why would I do that? I have no point here.
What I would do is...
No no no no no no no. I got something better for that.
Let's put a wall around the city of Philadelphia.
Oh you're just about to say that.
Wow. I'm glad we're in agreement with that.
No.
I'm so glad we're in agreement with that.
No.
You just said it.
No.
That's just something you would do.
But you just said you would...
I wouldn't do it.
You would do it.
I'm glad we're in agreement with my friend.
I'm not in agreement.
Not in agreement.
But no. I have actually great policies.
I could implement as the leader of this great nation.
Name two.
Name two policies really?
What two policies do you mean?
I feel like you're going to flame me.
Whatever. No matter what I say.
I'm glad you already knew but...
Yeah. Yeah. I already knew.
I could be like everyone gets a million dollars.
And you'd be like no I hate that. I don't want a million dollars.
You're going to flame me.
That defeats the whole purpose of like my sociology profession.
But I don't see that even working.
Because either way prices still have to go up for anything else.
So it wouldn't work either way.
So...
Okay. I'm not saying I would do that.
I'm just saying that you would flame me no matter what I say.
No. I'd flame you if it was actual good policy.
Okay. What's the policy that you wouldn't want me to say then?
That I wouldn't want you to say?
What would be your policy?
I'm going to ask you. What would be your policy?
I wouldn't run for president.
There's a difference.
I know this country would go to the ground if I was president.
Oh yeah.
It absolutely would.
That's why I would never run for president.
And plus I like my hair.
Most presidents...
You like your hair?
Because most presidents whenever they get in the office it's a very stressful job.
It is.
So that's why their hair is great.
Like if you look at Obama's hair.
Bush's hair. Clinton.
I mean I can't say Biden. Biden already had one hair.
Biden's like almost bald isn't he?
Biden practically...I could just blow him and he could blow away.
He falls off bikes a lot.
He falls upstairs.
He falls down stairs. Bikes.
I mean okay. No hate if you're listening to the podcast and you like Biden.
We don't think he's the most competent leader.
He falls off stairs. He falls down bikes.
I mean he's clearly not physically the most fit person.
To put it count.
I mean it's not going to make him fit like an 80 year old out there.
Yeah he's in his 80s.
So if I was my 80s I would probably...
I'd be sitting in a chair just like watching TV or something eating Doritos.
First of all if I was in his situation and I knew I wasn't the most mobile guy.
I wouldn't be doing all these things like biking or like...
I would have the Secret Service push me around.
I wouldn't want to embarrass myself in front of the nation.
I would be like okay I'm not going to ride my bike because I'm probably going to fall.
I'm not going to embarrass myself in front of the nation.
Yeah the Secret Service can just carry me up the stairs please.
Thank you sir.
Like you're here to protect me right?
I need you to protect me.
Like I can't move or anything.
First off, I mean we've had a president before that was in a wheelchair.
But what about nowadays? Like a president in a wheelchair.
How are they going to get up the airplane stairs?
Does the Secret Service guy not carry the wheelchair up there?
I feel like they're going to find some way to do it.
I feel like they're genuinely going to find some way to actually get him up the stairs.
Are they going to have like some elevator or something?
It was Frankie Roosevelt, he was in the wheelchair.
And then the current governor of Texas, Greg Abbott, he's in a wheelchair.
He can't walk.
So like if Biden was in a wheelchair, what would they do?
Carry the wheelchair up the stairs to Air Force One?
They've got to find something.
But I think that should wrap up everything we've talked about today.
What do you think, Lane?
Where do you still want to go on?
That's going for three more hours baby.
I want to run a marathon. I have so much energy right now.
I really do. I want to like get all my energy out.
I'm going to run a marathon after this podcast.
This podcast is dating two hours, Lane. What's that for?
Okay, whatever, Mr. Lazy. You want to go back to my Fortnite in my...
No, I'm going to the Strawberry Festival.
Getting you some strawberry daffries, motherfucker.
Strawberry is number one fruit. You've heard it, girl.
Definitely not the opinion, but we'll argue that next time.
Hold up, what's your favorite fruit?
We'll argue that next time.
You'll probably say something like cherries.
We'll argue that next time.
We will argue it next time.
Alright, you want to get out of here, don't you?
Yes, I do.
Aw man, okay.
Dog, what's the outro going to be?
Just me clowning you.
Go ahead, go ahead. Your best shot, come on.
Hey dog, your fashion sense literally sucks. Why are you...
I'm wearing fashion, by the way.
He's wearing these short, short-edged shorts, like something a girl would wear.
He's wearing...he's wearing sandals, and he's wearing some type of shirt.
Some type of shirt.
What would the opposite be? Not wearing a shirt?
Like a little white beater or something? I don't know.
What? I am not wearing a white beater?
Okay, Evan is making that up.
I'm pretty much not wearing a white beater.
I feel like you'd wear a white beater, but...
I am not that type of person.
I feel like you would wear a white beater, but...
Yeah, he looks like he's about to go to the beach.
We live in Louisiana.
I am in my beach fire bearer, okay?
He's probably going to the pool after this, but...
Take me to the beach, I'd go with you. Please, take me to the beach.
But, yeah, other than that, other than me versing you with a bunch of fashion sense, we got a good to go.
And...
Yeah, clearly you want to get the fuck out of here.
Yeah, I want to get out of here.
I need to go.
I want to go get the strawberry daiquiris.
What time is it? That's like...
Strawberry festival closes at what, 10?
7, Sunday.
Oh, okay.
Yeah, it's like 2.
We got plenty of time on our first.
Motherfucker, I got to fly back.
But, alright.
We will catch y'all later.
And we hope you enjoy this latest episode.
Announcing this right now, by the way.
Look out for NFL Draft.
We're doing a draft day pod.
Spectacular.
We will absolutely be doing that.
I don't know if we're going to be doing it live, or just be filming our reaction.
No, we're going to be doing it live.
Hopefully, right?
You're the editor.
Yeah.
You're the tech that's happy to do you.
Hopefully we'll be doing it live, but, you know, look out for that, ladies and gentlemen.
We might as well just get a Twitch or something.
We could.
Just do it live on Twitch.
Yeah, maybe.
Or Rumble, either one.
But, yeah, we will do a draft.
Rumble. Who uses Rumble?
Not Rumble.
Kick.
Okay.
I don't know what.
Alright.
We will eventually.
We will have more updates for y'all.
Just know that.
We will have something out for that.
And we're going to record the episode.
The audio for the viewers.
So we're going to have it live and we're going to try to record it.
Yes.
That's possible, but.
Yes.
Alright.
We're rambling now.
We've got to get out of here.
Yeah.
I am going to go get a strawberry.
Goodbye, everyone.
Goodbye.
Adios.
