let them down.
Speaker 3 (01:19):
Listen to Sam's happy with me. We smoke during the break,
So I just let it be known.
Speaker 5 (01:24):
Hey, yeah, I don't buy I don't buy that one bit.
Speaker 3 (01:28):
Yeah, it's definitely not me. Hey, by the way, did
you hear the report that Cade McNamara, you know, he's
gonna get to see all his exes in the Big
Ten title game, that he's referring to them as the
other team, not even not even putting a name to that.
What do you think about that, Sam getting fired up
for the Big Ten Championship.
Speaker 4 (01:46):
I guess I'm okay with it.
Speaker 3 (01:48):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's kind of insulting to do. I mean,
you know, I thought they were they had some good
times together, and so now you've got.
Speaker 4 (01:56):
A yeah they did. Then he got yeah, he got
surpassed for JJ sort of like it's like a romance
or something. You know, he wouldn't you have done the
same thing though. Cage's pretty good. No, yeah, J's Jag
is better. He's better. But yeah, I don't know. I mean,
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (02:16):
Who do you think Brian Farrence is rooting for in
the Big Ten Championship game?
Speaker 5 (02:22):
Uh?
Speaker 4 (02:23):
What are we talking about? I'm just asking you THEO
I don't understand.
Speaker 1 (02:25):
I'm just asking the questions steer the show out man
to just steers the show in weird directions.
Speaker 4 (02:31):
Man, Well, somebody else take the wheel. I hope Brian
Farrence calls the game of his life, like when he
called that Ohio State game where they put up forty
eight on on the Buckeyes back at se or seventeen,
twenty seventeen, and there's a defensive touchdown there, so it's
fifty five.
Speaker 5 (02:47):
But I'll say this much.
Speaker 1 (02:48):
The Lions twenty three in that game. Yeah, I mean,
Michigan's dealing with some injuries.
Speaker 4 (02:55):
So is Iowa.
Speaker 5 (02:57):
So is Iowa. But I feel I feel like Iowa can.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
Their defense have been so good. I feel like they
can keep this thing close, like I should stay close
within the number. Yeah, like they can keep it within
three touchdowns?
Speaker 5 (03:11):
Right, Yeah, I don't think so.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
I mean, no, it doesn't feel like the same Michigan
offense that we saw back was a couple of years
ago when they played.
Speaker 4 (03:22):
Wait, I think this offense is better than two years ago.
Speaker 5 (03:25):
In Michigan's Yeah, no, quarterback is better.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
Well, they're letting him throw a little bit more, but
that's even hasn't been as much because of the has
been banged up. I mean, look at Donovan Edwards for example,
he hasn't had it as good of a year. Blake
Korm's year hasn't been quite as productive, at least in yards.
They've obviously he's had a lot of touchdowns, but it
just it doesn't feel like it felt going into that
game that year. I mean, that year felt like they
(03:51):
could run on anyone, like maybe even.
Speaker 5 (03:52):
The eighty five Bears. They felt like. I don't.
Speaker 6 (03:55):
I don't get that same sense for this year's matchup.
Speaker 4 (03:58):
But I mean, I look at a lot of the
score is Michigan has put up this year forty five,
forty two, fifty two.
Speaker 6 (04:03):
I mean, they play played against really bad teams this year.
Speaker 4 (04:06):
Didn't look at the same scores Iowa put on those
same teams fifteen thirteen.
Speaker 5 (04:10):
Sixty win those games.
Speaker 4 (04:13):
Iowa did, Yeah, bye bye my hair.
Speaker 1 (04:15):
The weird thing about what's happening right now? Sam, And
if you can just self reflect on something. I'm trying
to make your case, Sam, to help out with Iowa.
Here you're WEIRDO hope, I'm trying to help you. It's
somehow you're like rooting against Iowa. What No, I'm spanked.
Speaker 5 (04:31):
God. I hope you guys get crushed.
Speaker 4 (04:32):
I hope I'm listening.
Speaker 5 (04:34):
What do you wanted?
Speaker 4 (04:35):
What are you trying to say?
Speaker 5 (04:36):
There's going to be over three hundred yards and rushing.
Speaker 4 (04:40):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (04:41):
Sam's one of those people where as soon as you
try to join his side, he then starts arguing with you.
Speaker 5 (04:45):
Not okay, time, I'm not arguing.
Speaker 1 (04:46):
Go in your little cubby hole and go be miserable.
I just go watch the game by yourself.
Speaker 4 (04:51):
Know what, what did you want to say?
Speaker 5 (04:53):
What did we already said it? We already said it.
Speaker 4 (04:55):
I'll be honest with you, I don't know that.
Speaker 5 (04:57):
To get off the mic, Sam, let's move on.
Speaker 3 (05:00):
I don't know that I've ever seen a point spread
at twenty three and the total of the game at thirty.
Speaker 5 (05:07):
Five Iowa six and a half, right, I don't know.
Speaker 4 (05:13):
I don't think I've ever seen that in my life before.
Speaker 5 (05:15):
But think about the team total for Iowa six and
a half.
Speaker 3 (05:18):
Well, hey, listen, like you know, it's a harmless touchdown
and an extra point and we're often running. I mean,
everything should be fine there. I think it's look I
like Iowa. I've taken an about face on Iowa. I
respect their consistency. You know what you get every week,
and they deliver every week, and that's all you can
(05:38):
ask for in life. Got my support, Sam, that's for sure.
Speaker 1 (05:42):
I mean, look, all mask at four isn't over in
this case. I don't think that's too much to ask for.
Speaker 4 (05:48):
They got to tend to the hard way.
Speaker 5 (05:49):
I'll just say that they could be eleven on one,
so they.
Speaker 4 (05:52):
Should be eleven in one. But that one loss. What
happened in that loss? I already know the rules or something.
A wet night in Happy Valley.
Speaker 5 (06:00):
Do you think they should have beat Penn State? No?
Speaker 4 (06:02):
I said that one loss, wet dark knight in Happy Valley.
Speaker 5 (06:06):
Yeah, I was at that game, you guys, book, that's
not the one they should have won.
Speaker 4 (06:12):
Yeah, I'm talking about the Minnesota game rules. I've never
heard Kirk Farns curse in public or in front of
the media, and he cursed that decision recently after the
Nebraska game. So that shows you how he feels about
that loss. Okay, well listen, you know the rules.
Speaker 1 (06:31):
Then it is kind of crazy though, if you think
about how different the dynamics of the game would be
and say what you want.
Speaker 6 (06:39):
I mean, they're what sixteenth right now? If they were
eleven and one, I don't.
Speaker 1 (06:41):
Know how much higher they'd be, But you'd have to
think if they could have pulled, if they could pull
off the upset over Michigan, are you really gonna leave
out the Big Ten champion if they were to be
like at a hypothetical scenario.
Speaker 7 (06:54):
Which is crazy because it's crazy. I had this conversation
point years ago when Penn State won to Big Ten
and with.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
Left hold on, hold on, that's two losses, but they won,
but they won.
Speaker 5 (07:06):
It doesn't matter. They have never left.
Speaker 7 (07:08):
It has to matter. It has If you win your conference,
you have to be considered.
Speaker 5 (07:15):
Especially they never put in a two loss team, Brady.
Speaker 7 (07:19):
They a team that did not even play in the championship.
Speaker 1 (07:23):
How many losses did they have, Brady, how many loss
did they have one that one loss exactly, okay, but.
Speaker 5 (07:31):
They didn't even play in the championship game.
Speaker 1 (07:33):
By the way, LeVar, They've done that multiple times. It
doesn't make sense. They've taken people haven't made the conference
championship game. They've taken teams that have lost in the
conference champion If you're.
Speaker 7 (07:43):
Taking a team out of a conference that's not even
the conference champ and you leave the conference champ out,
that does not make sense to me.
Speaker 5 (07:55):
I'm sorry, and that's never made sense to me.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
All I'm saying is they've never taken a two lost team,
so never might understand what you're saying.
Speaker 4 (08:01):
Again, this is why we need to get to next
year when we have playoff and that that'll.
Speaker 1 (08:06):
Sol We might have a scenario to Levar's frustration about
that year for Penn State. We might have a scenario
this year depending on what happens with the a SC
championship game.
Speaker 5 (08:17):
Now, I don't think that's the case. I think if
Florida State wins, they're in. But there's a.
Speaker 1 (08:21):
Thought or concerned that if it's close versus Louisville, that
Louisville they might get jumped.
Speaker 3 (08:28):
Sam, do you really think that if Iowa was sitting
here with one loss and they beat Michigan, they wouldn't
get in. I think they one would get in. I mean,
look at no, like I put.
Speaker 5 (08:39):
It this way, put it put it this way.
Speaker 1 (08:41):
Can we all agree Bama beats Georgia Bamazon, Yes, because
that's a one loss team that would be beating you
know that's sitting at eight right now, center eight or
whatever they are.
Speaker 4 (08:49):
Yeah, there's several one loss teams. If Iowa was eleven
to one, that should be ahead of Io, which by
because they have better offense and better defense.
Speaker 1 (08:58):
But we're not talking about the the actuality of what
Iowa is. We're just saying hypothetically speaking, Sam, can you not.
Speaker 4 (09:04):
In this instance he's so negative.
Speaker 5 (09:07):
No, it's so weird.
Speaker 4 (09:08):
No, I'm I'm just being realistic about this game coming up.
But uh, like they listen, they don't, they don't look.
Their schedule was just not not there.
Speaker 5 (09:17):
It's the Pig ten West, of course it's not.
Speaker 4 (09:20):
But even if you look at like the who they
played out of the East, you know they and they.
Speaker 5 (09:24):
Lost, they got crushed by Penn State.
Speaker 4 (09:26):
Yeah, so they would not be in the conversation for
the final four.
Speaker 6 (09:30):
I don't know, man, I think it'd be hard to
leave out the Sam.
Speaker 4 (09:32):
Let's not bury the lead here. It's a final.
Speaker 5 (09:34):
I think they would get skipped.
Speaker 7 (09:36):
I think they get jumped over if they won, if
they were were one. If they win this gang, they're
not going to the playoffs. No, they're not going to losses.
They're not glosses. If they had one loss and they
won this gang, they're not going.
Speaker 1 (09:51):
They'd be a top ten team if they had one loss.
Speaker 5 (09:55):
That's the one part.
Speaker 4 (09:56):
They might get up. If they were to beat Michigan,
they might get up to like ten.
Speaker 3 (10:00):
Hey, Sam, let me ask you. This kickoff is five
o'clock Pacific time on Fox this Saturday.
Speaker 5 (10:06):
On what channel, Fox? Fox?
Speaker 4 (10:09):
I mean, how many cocktails? How many throat.
Speaker 3 (10:11):
Burners are you ripping through by five o'clock getting over
this game?
Speaker 4 (10:16):
Not that many, because I'm going to be here working,
because that's what I've been.
Speaker 5 (10:22):
Assigned to do.
Speaker 4 (10:23):
Oh you gotta I'll be I'll be off at three
o'clock Pacific time.
Speaker 1 (10:26):
But that's a wise play though, Yeah, yeah, but you know.
Speaker 6 (10:33):
The game will be almost over though, because the way
Iowa plays.
Speaker 4 (10:40):
I'll be here by the time limit.
Speaker 5 (10:43):
The game will be over an hour and forty minutes.
Speaker 6 (10:45):
Right, yeah, I'll be ready for What did you miss
about that?
Speaker 5 (10:49):
Sam?
Speaker 6 (10:49):
Like, what are we missing? It's not like you guys
dominate time of possession?
Speaker 4 (10:54):
What you was your question?
Speaker 6 (10:56):
There wasn't a question, it was a statement.
Speaker 5 (10:57):
Sam.
Speaker 4 (10:59):
Yeah, they know they do not dominate time as possessional.
Speaker 5 (11:02):
They average about twenty seven twenty minutes.
Speaker 4 (11:03):
Again, all right, well that's about half the clock.
Speaker 6 (11:06):
It's not though, it's actually probably bottom half.
Speaker 5 (11:08):
The baits out if you look.
Speaker 4 (11:09):
Fine. Yeah, they're offen their offenses on the field for
like thirty seconds and then they're then they're done.
Speaker 5 (11:14):
They're punny, but they play defense real well, and.
Speaker 4 (11:16):
They they grind they grind the other team's offense down.
What do you think the crowd split's going to be
at this game?
Speaker 5 (11:22):
Grind them down?
Speaker 4 (11:24):
You think it's gonna be.
Speaker 7 (11:25):
Uh has a strong fan base, man, Yeah, you're a
pretty strong fan base.
Speaker 5 (11:31):
Now, don't don't sleep on Iowa's fan base. There. It's
it's a it's a good fan base. I think it's
a great fan like, so it's fun.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
I'm actually trying to make a case for them covering
and like all this stuff and like Sam's just pooh
poohing it.
Speaker 5 (11:42):
I'm not.
Speaker 4 (11:43):
I'm just I'm being realistic about it's going to be
two years.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
What's have you not decided this? Jonas and LeVar? Has
Sam been positive at all about Iowa?
Speaker 4 (11:51):
Now, he's been very nice, Okay, but then where's what's
what's the problem with that? I'm being realistic. It's not
negative or positive.
Speaker 5 (11:57):
You know what that is in your mind?
Speaker 4 (11:59):
Yeah, Jones, it'll be a static but they're going to lose.
Speaker 7 (12:02):
In his mind if he says it this way and
some weird type of way, it justifies if Iowa were
to have.
Speaker 5 (12:11):
This monumental moment and win the game. It's like I.
Speaker 4 (12:15):
Will put all the boxes down the line, and there's
not one thing that Iowa does better except for maybe punting. Okay,
but that's not that's not even the part. That's not
even I've seen a T shirt win. It is a
different Punting makes a difference, Yeah, okay, it's not going
to make a difference on Saturday.
Speaker 5 (12:35):
It's a metaphor for life, Sam.
Speaker 1 (12:37):
There's many times that we probably should punt in life,
you know, as opposed to going for it.
Speaker 4 (12:43):
Punting is winning is like a sick. It's just like
a backward sick mindset. You know, if you do win
the game, then it's fun to say punting is well.
Speaker 7 (12:49):
By the way, that's so interesting you say that, though, Q,
because no one would ever make a movie about punting,
like time to Punt, like my story it's time to Go,
and how he went through like punting. Actually there is
a book there. Oh no, there's a book. I'll tell
(13:14):
you this. He that's a lot of that.
Speaker 5 (13:17):
That Q is on. Just punted and that's the point
of the book, all right.
Speaker 7 (13:21):
Sometimes you want to give your point and sometimes you
want to take it to where you want to take
it to. It it just goes away for a moment.
That's that's the reality of it.
Speaker 5 (13:29):
You know.
Speaker 7 (13:30):
For Jonas that that's that would be the perfect title
to your book.
Speaker 4 (13:35):
I mean, not a hold on.
Speaker 5 (13:37):
Jonas and I.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
Have had this conversation before, although I don't know that
we ever had any Duke on so any Duke wrote
a really great book about thinking in bets. I just
talked about from the like a professional pokers player's point
of view, and it's actually really interesting, like she kind
of challenges people to say, like, oh, you're so sure
about this, right, Like, hey, hey, I was, Sam, you're
so sure about you know, I was not going to
(14:01):
win this?
Speaker 5 (14:01):
Okay, how much money you wanting to put on it?
Speaker 1 (14:03):
Like she's basically saying, like when people actually have to
start putting money on something and a decision they make.
Speaker 7 (14:09):
Oh, I'll put a ton of money on that. If
I was I was, I'll give you my money to
put on it.
Speaker 1 (14:14):
But the general point is, to me, the general point
is as soon as you when you have to make
a decision and then there's greater stakes on it, you
feel a lot less certain about that decision.
Speaker 5 (14:25):
It's not one hundred percent anymore. It's a great seventy
five percent or so. Right. It's actually a great book too.
Speaker 1 (14:30):
But there's also she also writes a book of the
powering of knowing when to walk away, and it's this
title Quit and it's it's kind of along the same lines,
along the lines of like when to fold them if
you get a bat you know, delt a bad hand.
There's an art in wh knowing when hey, it's a
losing battle, I probably need to fold and wait till
the next hand.
Speaker 3 (14:48):
And you got no win hold, right, yeah, no wind,
fold no win, run away?
Speaker 5 (14:57):
No? When? What? What? What is it? Know? One the
hat you bed account?
Speaker 7 (15:02):
Joe all money while you're sitting there at the table.
Speaker 3 (15:08):
Hey, by the way, uh, what to apologize to our
friends listening in the great city of Walcott, Iowa? You
know the five two seven seven three. I just want
to say sorry, more optimistic here.
Speaker 5 (15:19):
We're trying to be positive Iowa. Sam's bringing us down.
Speaker 3 (15:21):
Yeah, the human pipe bomb, Jonas samning everything.
Speaker 7 (15:27):
Can you please pay attention to the clock. Jonas, I'm trying,
please doing everything. Can you please pay attention to the clock.
Speaker 4 (15:33):
Why don't you guys? Asks about Iowa, Michigan?
Speaker 5 (15:36):
How about that?
Speaker 4 (15:37):

Right now, it's time to class up the joint with
the old p Petros Papadegas. He is the co host
of the Petros and Money Show which you can hear
on the blowtorch Am five to seventy LA Sports Fox
College Football analyst Petros, Good morning.
Speaker 9 (17:24):
All right, Petros, good morning everybody. My season is over.
I'm done doing college football for the year. Thank you guys,
everybody at Fox and FS one and FS two and
everywhere that I got to work all season long.
Speaker 1 (17:39):
How does it feel? Are you sad? I always feel
like it's it's almost like a punch in the gut
at the end of the season.
Speaker 9 (17:45):
You know, Well, it's hard to watch people work when
you're not working, and that's basically the whole bowl season
if you work at Fox. So yeah, it's a little bittersweet,
but it's always nice to be done and have more
time to watch obscure movies.
Speaker 4 (18:03):
Who is the best team you saw all year?
Speaker 5 (18:04):
Petros? Oh, that's a sad question. Why. Probably Oregon State.
Speaker 4 (18:13):
And now they got changes.
Speaker 5 (18:15):
Yes, yes they do. Yeah, yeah, oh Pee. Can I
ask you a serious question. Yes, if a team plays
during the course of a season and they they some way,
somehow happen to find their way into the conference championship,
(18:39):
and in that conference championship game they win, they win,
and they don't go to the college Playoff, but yet
another team in their conference that doesn't even play in
the game, or played in the game that loss, or
was not ever even in the game, still ends up going.
Speaker 7 (18:58):
To the college playoff. Isn't there something Unamerican about that?
Isn't there something totally awful about that?
Speaker 5 (19:07):
God like ketchup on a hot dog? I mean, I
like ketchup on a hot dog, but it is seen
as un American. I mean, yeah, because you like catch
up a hot dog, you are not I've discredited my
point here. Well, it's a little suspect.
Speaker 9 (19:23):
Your point is that if you don't win or go
to your conference championship game, you shouldn't be.
Speaker 5 (19:29):
Able to play in the college football player.
Speaker 7 (19:32):
But you can be a national chant but not even
be a champ of your own conference.
Speaker 5 (19:37):
Yeah, that even pass backwards to me.
Speaker 9 (19:39):
Yeah, that's been one of the huge problems of this
whole system for quite some time, that they have made
it to where the conference championship games don't matter, or
might not matter, or if they're inconvenient, they won't matter.
Speaker 5 (19:57):
So absolutely right, it is wrong.
Speaker 9 (19:59):
It's been stupid ever since the whole thing began. You
should not be able to play for the title or
in the playoffs if you did not win your conference.
That being said, we got to find ways to get
more than one SEC team in there. And that is
(20:20):
how ESPM and the people that they placed in charge
of the College Football Playoff, which they own, basically that's
how they set it up. So it's changing. It's gonna change.
It's gonna be to where you don't have to win
your championship because we're going to have a twelve team
playoff and all that. But yes, this system. Look, there's
(20:43):
a lot of things right now in college football that
just feel irrevocably broken. Sorry that's a big word for
this time of morning for me. But like, we're paying
people twenty million dollars. Dana Holderson got fourteen million, I
think the guy had in Indiana. Allen got ten million
to go away.
Speaker 1 (21:02):
More than that, he actually bought it down to fifteen
and a half.
Speaker 5 (21:05):
Well, there're twenty Yeah, there you go.
Speaker 9 (21:07):
Jimbo got the International Monetary Fund to leave Texas A
and M like they had to drain three oil wells
in Saudi Arabia for him.
Speaker 5 (21:20):
So and then at the.
Speaker 9 (21:22):
Other set side of it, as we talked about last week,
we have all these people begging for money and Dion
talking about a credit card swipe and everybody's podcast given
the gigamaggie's collective number so they can sift money more
money from the fans as opposed to just begging the
(21:44):
rich guy that wants to be cool and hang out
with the team, which is the way of college football.
But it just feels like we're not doing if we
can pay these people fifteen million dollars to go away,
but we have to beg the fan base to pay
the players because player cost, and we've created this whole
nil thing which has nothing really to do with name
(22:06):
image like this at all. It's just paid a play.
I mean, if this isn't more evidence that the schools
need to pay the players, I don't know what is.
But it is a wild time. There's always in congruity
in college football, LeVar. I feel like that's what we
like about it in a lot of ways, because it
(22:28):
is not balanced and all measured out like the NFL
or a pro league. It's chaos, right, and that's fine.
But I agree about the conference championship thing. I do
believe that it's un American and they should take that
to Russia with the Communists.
Speaker 5 (22:49):
And the backstory here.
Speaker 1 (22:50):
Petchos is LeVar is still upset about the twenty sixteen
season where Penn State won the Big Ten but Ohio
State went instead, and they didn't get drummed by the
way by Clemson thirty one and nothing in the semi
final games, So maybe it would have been a little
more competitive too, having Penn State take on.
Speaker 9 (23:06):
I think it's a fair I think I'd made that
point on the air back then. And by the way,
you go to Russia with the communist is part of
the greatest and I don't know if we've discussed this before,
oh but part of the greatest pregame speech in the
history of television or any movie, in the great recruiting
movie of the eighties, and I don't ever want to
hear about stupid ass any given Sunday with the guy's
(23:31):
eye popping out and dumbass al Pacino, Jesse Spano and
all that Johnny be Good starring Robert Downey Junior as
the backup quarterback and actually starring Anthony Michael Hall.
Speaker 5 (23:46):
I just couldn't remember his name as Johnny be Good.
Speaker 9 (23:49):
The nineteen eighties high school recruiting into college movie about
a very talented quarterback who wins state championship after state
championship in Indiana, and he's got an a hole head
coach who is the same guy who's an a hole
in Breakfast Club.
Speaker 1 (24:10):
Oh yeah, the great actor. He was probably the best
a holes of a holes.
Speaker 5 (24:16):
Yes, one of you guys can pull his name on
weapon too. Yeah, he's great.
Speaker 4 (24:20):
He got.
Speaker 5 (24:23):
I think he was on the field for that Patriots
Bills game. Paul Paul Glease in his past.
Speaker 9 (24:30):
But uh, but he gives a speech, you know, early
in the game, uh in the movie at the beginning
of the movie, and he says something like, you know,
he's doing a prayer and he's saying like, uh, may
no one be hurt on our side. And he goes
on and on and he goes, I'm a winner. I
(24:51):
want to win. If you're a loser, you go over
there to rush.
Speaker 5 (24:55):
You with the copies.
Speaker 9 (24:58):
It's just it's the great this line in the history
of football to me. And if you do want to lose,
you should go over to Russia with the commis or
I don't even believe Russia is a communist country.
Speaker 5 (25:10):
Just still put ketchup on your hot dog. Right, that's
part of it, right, right? Or let somebody if you're
Brady Quinn, or let somebody out.
Speaker 9 (25:19):
You can't let anybody into the college football playoff either
if they didn't win the conference champion.
Speaker 3 (25:27):
Petros, does it warm your heart to see Bobby Petrino
back at Arkansas's offensive coordinator considering how he left?
Speaker 9 (25:37):
I mean, I guess if you can call plays, you know,
you know, there's some people that have a certain talent
it can't be denied, and that that talent overrides some other,
maybe perhaps character issues.
Speaker 5 (25:55):
What did he do wrong?
Speaker 9 (25:56):
Petro's, Well, look, some people are really into volleyball people, right,
They're long and tall and irresistible to su I'm more
of a libero guy, although I don't find anybody more.
Speaker 5 (26:12):
Compact, lower to the ground. I enjoy a yeah, I like,
can you go? You're not an outside hitter guy.
Speaker 9 (26:21):
I like somebody to look more like the volleyball I mean,
if we're talking about preference, but look, let's just I'm
going to turn this into something that we've probably discussed before.
But you know, if you live in an athletic department,
(26:43):
there's all kinds of people around and many of them
are elite athletes or former elite athletes that are coaching
elite athletes now and quite attractive.
Speaker 5 (26:53):
Just put it like that, and uh, at USC we
had an elite and still do.
Speaker 9 (26:59):
Uh. And everybody would just and and everybody would marvel
at the fact that you know, you're on your way
to go get taped and run at you know, five
point thirty in the morning and they're already in the pool.
You know, you're coming home from school at four in
the afternoon, they're back in the pool while you walk by.
(27:19):
I mean, these people are always in the pool. There's
girls there too. It's not like, you know, there's also
girls on the swim team. It's not like you have
a girl playing Sam Becher, you know when you're playing
at se so you're you're on the team with women
and no one wears anything.
Speaker 5 (27:34):
They don't wear anything. So they're staring at each.
Speaker 9 (27:37):
Other naked all day working out and all they do
when they swim is stare at the bottom of a pool.
You know, there's a reason nobody popped out of a
pool and like solve the world problem. You know, you
don't have a lot of time to study while you're
staring at the bottom of a pool. But once a month,
the swimmers would throw a swimmer party, which would become
(28:02):
just a volcano of decadence like Caligula, because all they
did was work out and stare at each other naked,
and everybody in the athletic department or anybody that lived
close or maybe somebody that knew somebody would try to
get into that swimmer party because they were truly, truly
(28:24):
an absolute well let's just say, like an orgy, and
you'd have people running around, you know, wearing their gold
medal that they just won in Sydney, swinging off their
naked body on some kind of MDMA drug.
Speaker 5 (28:43):
Anyway. I have had this experience.
Speaker 9 (28:47):
Talking to other people about this from universities, and they
also seeked out the swimmer parties because they were, you know,
because the nature of the swimmers.
Speaker 4 (28:57):
I mean delivers why you know, why.
Speaker 5 (29:00):
He really did.
Speaker 9 (29:00):
And you know, if you're a football player, you might
be able to run up on like a more insecure
girl who's got huge shoulders, you know, and be like, hey,
it's okay that you got big ass arms and shoulders.
Mine are bigger and I'm okay with it. I love
looks like a kite.
Speaker 1 (29:23):
I loved going behind the scenes with the way Petros's
mind works.
Speaker 9 (29:27):
Well, I'm just saying that that Bobby Petrino fell victim
to that. You know, it's a long and lean specimen
and you know, like he was, you know, running around
out in.
Speaker 5 (29:39):
The uh the bush, he got excited and crashed his bike. Yeah,
what happens in the bush when you're running around like that? Uh,
you fall to animal instincts. Do you go down on
all fours or do you just continue?
Speaker 9 (29:54):
I don't know what he did. You're gonna have to
ask Bobby. But he got all scratched up or was
he one of the great photos in the history of football?
Is all scratched up freaking neck brace. So he was
certainly a homo erectus with the neck brace. If he
(30:16):
was an animal, they would have put one of those
dog of saucer.
Speaker 4 (30:19):
Things that could lick himself.
Speaker 5 (30:27):
To him getting that neck brace on. Yeah, Petrino. Petrino
is like the is like the uh. He's sort of like.
Speaker 9 (30:34):
The the equivalent of like an action hero for hire.
Speaker 5 (30:39):
Right.
Speaker 9 (30:39):
He took a job at UNLV for like two weeks
last year, and A and M called and he was
like I gotta go, you know, I mean, this guy
is pretty unreal. And now he's back at Arkansas. Good
for him. Yeah, I hope he called some great plays.
Speaker 3 (30:52):
Yeah, Petros, you've called great plays on this show throughout
the course of this interview, and we appreciate it.
Speaker 4 (31:00):
You can get them on Twitter at the old.
Speaker 9 (31:02):
P That's what's the big worst part about COVID for college.
By the way, the end of the swimmer parties, I
hope they're back.
Speaker 5 (31:10):
Yeah, that was a great story. You know, this is
a great story. I didn't even know that.
Speaker 9 (31:15):
It's okay that you got shoulders and arms like the
field end on this football team.
Speaker 5 (31:21):
I'm personally a fan of swimmers, personally.
Speaker 4 (31:26):
Like human hang gliders too.
Speaker 5 (31:30):
So what are you studying the bottom of the pool?
What about you?
Speaker 7 (31:35):
I mean that takes talent that you got to be
gifted to be able to study the bottom of a pool.
Speaker 5 (31:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (31:39):
Well these were you know, I mean, and we had
to lead Olympic athletes. I'm just you know, none of
them went on to solve world problems like us.
Speaker 4 (31:49):
Yeah, what we do here exactly right?
Speaker 5 (31:51):
Wait to the BQ News that's gonna rock up.

Speaker 5 (33:04):
Let's go to the news desk. God, no, here's Brady Quick.
Speaker 1 (33:08):
Yeah, all right, this is morest thing on the lines
of college football, not necessarily so much newsworthy, but kind
of sort of all right. So, if we go back
through the twenty twenty recruiting class, the top fifty, okay,
how many of those top fifty recruits and high school
football headed to college are still with the place they
(33:30):
intended to go or to have not changed positions? How
many would you guess, oh, of top twenty, of the
top fifty fifty, I would probably say.
Speaker 4 (33:44):
Less than ten.
Speaker 5 (33:45):
I would say around ten. It's seven. Wow, I mean wow.
Speaker 3 (33:55):
A lot of commitment there, you know, a lot of wow.
Speaker 5 (34:01):
Wow.
Speaker 4 (34:02):
I mean, it's an interesting time for everybody.
Speaker 1 (34:04):
Yeah, it's some of these guys, so Bryce Young, CD
starting Anthony Rigiston are obviously all in the NFL at
this point. But you know, if you're looking at the quarterbacks,
Garrett Green, Tate, Roddamaker at Florida State, now Brady Cook
and Missouri, Carson Beck and Georgia. Like, if you're looking
at the landscape or the state of college football, it's
(34:26):
pretty crazy to think about the impact of the transfer
portal and what it's done.
Speaker 5 (34:31):
But let's get some fun new stuff. I hop about that. Okay,
all right?
Speaker 1 (34:36):
Well a Texan a Texas mob was booted from the
school district after well, then I said that she was
booted from the sex head panel after different convictions.
Speaker 5 (34:48):
Of escore of work were exposed by other parents.
Speaker 4 (34:51):
WHOA, she's an expert in her craft.
Speaker 1 (34:54):
I was just going to say, like, is because of
her history? Does that actually make her more of an
expert on the sex said?
Speaker 3 (35:00):
Look, who do casinos hire to monitor whether or not
somebody is cheating? People that cheat? All right, people that
do that and have done that in their life. So
if I want to know and learn about that field,
why not hire somebody who's a professional and is it
has a ton of work in that field.
Speaker 4 (35:17):
I think she should she should sue them.
Speaker 5 (35:19):
I think is very strong there, Jonas.
Speaker 3 (35:22):
Look that she should sue them for it's wrongful termination.
You know, it's hard to find a good job out there,
and then you get talent like you know, and then
next thing, you know, they got to shame her for it,
and it's got to be like I look, I stand
with her.
Speaker 5 (35:38):
I think I think she would with her.
Speaker 4 (35:40):
I think she deserves support for this. And uh, somebody like.
Speaker 5 (35:44):
That professional worker lives matter.
Speaker 3 (35:47):
They shouldn't have their their resume, you know, disparage just
because some people are uncomfortable.
Speaker 5 (35:51):
With it a shame.
Speaker 1 (35:54):
Let's move on to this story interesting a little spot
in case you're looking at throwing away a wedding ring
in New Hampshire in particular. So crazily enough, a wedding
ring was found amongst twenty tons of trash in this
New Hampshire transfer station and it's actually making it the
(36:15):
third ring in two years to be recovered at that
same exact location. So not sure what's going on there,
but I feel seeing a lot of people who are
either misplacing it or throwing it away.
Speaker 5 (36:26):
They're being found in the exact same spot.
Speaker 4 (36:28):
And where in New Hampshire is this? I'm looking at
plates right now.
Speaker 5 (36:30):
Let me see I heard Hampshiter's not very big.
Speaker 6 (36:34):
I'm sure you could probably as Jonah.
Speaker 3 (36:38):
How.
Speaker 4 (36:40):
Many different wedding rings do you guys have?
Speaker 5 (36:43):
Do you do?
Speaker 4 (36:44):
You color code them?
Speaker 1 (36:46):
So I have my original and then I have like
one of those like healthy track Fit you know ones?
Speaker 4 (36:54):
What do those do?
Speaker 5 (36:55):
It measures like your heart rate, your sleep and really yeah, yeah,
I'm saying, or a ring.
Speaker 4 (37:01):
It's way better than a watch.
Speaker 5 (37:03):
Yeah, it actually is, which is why I went with up. Yeah,
but it's not you. That's okay.
Speaker 4 (37:10):
What what's the problem?
Speaker 5 (37:12):
Nothing? Nothing, let's keep going.
Speaker 4 (37:16):
What's it from? I mean it's better. Look, watches can
get in the way.
Speaker 3 (37:19):
You get a ring, though, and it feels like it's
a little bit more manageable.
Speaker 7 (37:24):
I just feel like that gives me an easy out
to say that that's what it's for versus I'm married.
Speaker 5 (37:29):
Well, I mean it clearly looks like my wedding ring.
Speaker 7 (37:32):
That's so I would clearly there's no mistaken conveniently the
fact that this is just measures and weighs my poles
in my hydration and how many mouths I've walked in the.
Speaker 1 (37:44):
Day, or I don't know many men who wear a
wedding ring who aren't married, so I know way more
married men who don't wear a wedding ring at all.
So I would say the market share for this particular
company is probably married men, because there's not many guys
walk around and going no, no, no, I'm not married.
Speaker 5 (37:59):
By I want to look like a man.
Speaker 7 (38:01):
There is some truth in that, but I will say
I will say it does get you attention when you're younger,
if you do have a wedding ring on. I've tried
it in a social experiment before.
Speaker 5 (38:12):
How does social experiment go? You worked out pretty well?
Or what happened that pretty well? Were your role playing
that night? It worked out? Yeah?
Speaker 7 (38:23):
Man, you got so much so that I did that
social experiment maybe a few more.
Speaker 5 (38:28):
Times while I was in college. I mean, just being honest,
it's all for the social experience, and yes it did
