Bobby gives his top 5 most annoying fanbases! And while Eddie thinks the Longhorns will make number 1, he is reminded this is the most annoying fanbases – not teams he hates the most! Plus, Lionel Richie invited Bobby to a show in Europe later this year... and the guys assume they will also go if Eddie can get his passport in time. And Virginia Tech head football coach Brent Pry joined Bobby to discuss the best walkout in college football, what it was like coaching Micah Parsons, and more!

the show, edibowl the whistle. Let me show you got
something real quick. So open my mail, upten my glasses off.
In the mail, had this sent to me?
Speaker 2 (00:34):
Check it out?
Speaker 1 (00:36):
Oh it is a Purdue football helmet.
Speaker 3 (00:40):
Is it a boiler maker?
Speaker 1 (00:41):
It's a boiler maker helmet. It's a real one. Dude,
that's legit and go run into trees out of there.
Speaker 3 (00:47):
That gold is so beautiful.
Speaker 1 (00:48):
Yeah, wow, coach olt him send me the helmet.
Speaker 4 (00:51):
That's all shiny.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
And he said we should come up and be on
the sidelines for one of the games. And I told
him it's too cold, but if we come it'll be early.
Speaker 4 (01:00):
Have you looked at their schedule?
Speaker 1 (01:01):
I did. He sent me their schedule last night.
Speaker 3 (01:03):
Okay, what are you looking at? Well?
Speaker 1 (01:04):
I looked at ruggers. I also want to be there
for a game they can win. He's rebuilding a program.
You have.
Speaker 3 (01:09):
Every time you talk to hevit goes up and down.
It's too funny.
Speaker 1 (01:12):
Okay, so I got that, but probably gonna be ruggers
because I would like to have a game that they
have a chance of winning. I don't know Rutgers is
going to be good, but there's a reason they hired
a new coach, which is coach Odham, because the team
has not been good lately, so he's having to rebuild
the team. But he came to town. We hung out
at the Opry together. I took his daughter to meet
Laney Wilson. I told you all that, and yeah, he
sent me the helmet and the mail out of the
(01:32):
house and was like coming to whatever. So I don't know. Strategically,
I would need to see who Arkansas's playing, match it
up against it.
Speaker 3 (01:40):
Yeah, yeah, And I don't want to be so cold.
Speaker 1 (01:43):
What do you see, Kevin?
Speaker 4 (01:44):
I mean early on September thirteenth, they play usc which.
Speaker 3 (01:48):
You like that one Southern cal.
Speaker 1 (01:49):
But also I don't want to have to like go
and be in the way for like a big, big
game too. It's not that, isn't Eddie, which he sent
hats for saying, oh, there's this.
Speaker 3 (01:58):
One from Let's see I like that first one gold
gold brimde That gold is so cool. Looking.
Speaker 1 (02:05):
Thank you, coach, Kevin.
Speaker 4 (02:06):
Uh oh, dang, yeah, the one on your right hand.
Speaker 1 (02:11):
Okay, and Brandon, you have the last man standing, so
you don't get a hat. Casey, was you for a
long time?
Speaker 3 (02:21):
Graduated? Dude?
Speaker 2 (02:22):
There you go.
Speaker 3 (02:23):
Welcome to the club, Casey, thank you.
Speaker 1 (02:24):
It used to be Casey who didn't get so now
it's Brandon. So Brandon, you have to kill somebody, thanks coach.
So that happens last night.
Speaker 3 (02:35):
Quick question, though, do you think has this pushing it?
It could be pushing it. You think we can ask
coach if we can dress up, like dress up like
a boiler maker, like gear and everything from the sideline.
Speaker 1 (02:46):
We don't play obviously, but like just kind of standing.
I think there are rules about dressing. I don't know
though now because of new scholarship rules and I don't know. No,
I'm not gonna ask that though.
Speaker 3 (02:59):
Okay, because that'd be will do the recruit?
Speaker 1 (03:03):
Yeah, yeah, I'm gonna that would be funny though. So
I posted on my Twitter a video of me slapping
the helmet right, and I was like, I just got this,
And so then I get at a tweet d M.
Here we go and it says, hey, Bobby Hope is
(03:24):
find you doing well? Saw the post with you and
the Purdue helmet? Are you collecting them? Question mark? And
it's from Oh, I know who it is. You don't. No,
it's not from another Purdue person. Guess it's from Kansas
head coach Lance Leopold, who's been on the show. And
I said, I'm friends with the coach, otom but I
(03:44):
wouldn't turn one down from you, And he goes sending
you one to the mail.
Speaker 3 (03:50):
Dude, that's your thing, your accident.
Speaker 1 (03:53):
I didn't ask over the helmet.
Speaker 3 (03:55):
You're gonna get the whole college football collection.
Speaker 1 (03:59):
Yeah, he says, Oh, I didn't even see. He asked
me whide or blue.
Speaker 3 (04:05):
Blue? You gotta go the traditional blue that's got the
whole jayhawk on it.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
Right, just saw this, will take the blue and talking
about it on the show.
Speaker 3 (04:21):
Now Edy wants one too?
Speaker 1 (04:24):

Okay, So now we got that coming.
Speaker 3 (04:33):
In cool Huh, that's awesome. And then when you get
that one, who's gonna who's gonna video and who also
wants some of this action?
Speaker 1 (04:41):
So yeah, so we're we're secondary Purdue fans.
Speaker 4 (04:44):
I'm dealing with that, I love it.
Speaker 2 (04:46):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (04:46):
So the other thing is this is not a gift
for anybody, but.
Speaker 3 (04:49):
A follow up here we keep thinking there's a gift.
Speaker 1 (04:52):
What else my leather jacket market. I told you, guys,
I was ordering a leather jacket from a razor back.
Leather jacket is sweet, too expensive, I don't know, like
it's leather good.
Speaker 3 (05:10):
You look tough, and.
Speaker 1 (05:17):
Look at the back.
Speaker 4 (05:21):
You needn't getting the hog on a hog, you know
what I'm saying.
Speaker 3 (05:28):
What did the wife think of that?
Speaker 1 (05:30):
Well, I'm glad you asked, because I opened it with
her around purposefully and I said, hey, me and the
guys from the show, we're talking about how you'd feel
about this jacket. And I put it on and she
looked at it and she said, well, that does look
like something you waste your money on. And then she said,
and it also looks like something you wear one time
(05:51):
and never again.
Speaker 3 (05:52):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
And I said, but that one time I'll be looking good,
that's right. And she said, this will just collec dust
on the closet.
Speaker 3 (05:58):
I don't see that happening.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
Like a leather dude.
Speaker 3 (06:01):
That looks so good, dude, and the pop callar good.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
Yeah, you know this car is automatic.
Speaker 4 (06:12):
Grease lighted a cigarette in your mouth?
Speaker 1 (06:18):
Oh yeah, grease lightning, grease lightning.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (06:21):
Man, so feeling pretty good. I got my pretty helmet,
my razor back, leather jacket.
Speaker 3 (06:25):
Dude, you're living life right now.
Speaker 1 (06:26):
Man, life is so good.
Speaker 4 (06:28):
You're like one of those characters where it's like, you know,
if the quarterback had the head of this and the
body of this, and it's like a different team for
each part of your body.
Speaker 1 (06:37):
Yeah, well I only have I don't have the helmet
on anymore. But yeah, what today? Huh?
Speaker 4 (06:42):
Yeah, that's pretty cool.
Speaker 3 (06:43):
You you have a choice so purposely. You're not gonna
wear that one time and one time only.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
Well, I won't wear it now because it's summer.
Speaker 3 (06:54):
Yeah, but it's cold in the studio, so keep it on.
Speaker 1 (06:56):
I normally i'll wear it for this show. I normally
don't wear leather anyway, just for animals, you know.
Speaker 3 (07:00):
Oh yeah about is it real leather though?
Speaker 1 (07:02):
Or is it pleather?
Speaker 3 (07:05):
Smell? Let me smell.
Speaker 1 (07:06):
Always got a hole in it. It's a leather jacket
on the oh than, but it could be pleather. What
do you think that smells like? That is a heart sniff,
no smell dud.
Speaker 3 (07:15):
You should wear that's a bit every night.
Speaker 1 (07:17):
What what is no smell? Man? Leather?
Speaker 3 (07:19):
I think it's pleather.
Speaker 1 (07:21):
Why would you bring that even into the mixed though?
Take me down because and you will not get ahead
next time either. The one guy who didn't get a trade.
It's all upset, it's bitter.
Speaker 4 (07:30):
Yeah, I'm just saying you don't have to worry about
the animals.
Speaker 3 (07:33):
Oh, good point.
Speaker 1 (07:34):
Good point. I took it as an insults.
Speaker 3 (07:36):
Good point.
Speaker 1 (07:37):
That's actually a good point. And I think that what
I said. Yeah, I know you did make me feel good.
There is Brandon everybody who I took a shot at
and I thought he was taking a shot. Turns out
he wasn't taking a shot.
Speaker 3 (07:46):
You took that shot back.
Speaker 1 (07:47):
He's protecting that pulled the shot back. Okay, So I
have some stuff here. I played golf yesterday with Denay Hayes.
Speaker 3 (07:56):
Oh yeah, how did that go?
Speaker 1 (07:58):
Anybody familiar? She can me. She does a bunch of
social media stuff, very funny online. So we go play.
First of all, she won a national championship playing shortstop
or second base for Alabama.
Speaker 3 (08:10):
Wow wow, I didn't know that national.
Speaker 1 (08:12):
Yeah, as a freshman and then they went back to
the College World Series. I think she was a sophomore junior.
She on the Alabama softball team. Wow. So she played
second base or freshman year, I thin when they won
the championship, and then she played shortstop for three years
after that, so like high level athletes.
Speaker 3 (08:26):
Sure, so she's good at golf.
Speaker 1 (08:28):
So we go and I go and I think, I'm
I hate this about me. And I don't really know
her that well. But she plays golf in the middle
of the day. In my schedule, if I do get
to play, it's always in the middle of the day
because I don't have to work till five. I start
earlier and end like one or something. So off Eddie
and I ever play, it's at.
Speaker 3 (08:48):
Like two, yeah, late in the day.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
So it's a weird time. And I had seen on
her Instagram and we'd met one time before, and I
was like, hey, and I was thinking about doing some
content with her cause I knew she was a ball player.
And I think I saw that she was the MVP
of that softball game, the celebrity softball game. Oh yeah,
the Folds, Yes, And she was oh, that's right. She
looked like a dog. When she was playing, she was
(09:12):
sliding in shorts making crazy. I didn't know, and I
was like, what, what's her deal? So when I found
out she played softball at Alabama and won a national championship.
So she's playing golf, I'm like, hey, we should play golf.
And I'd texting on the way over there because we're
playing in my buddies course, and I was like, hey,
I'm gonna play from the white teas, thinking I'll play
from the white teas, and then she's the girls who
(09:34):
just play from the red teas and I'll be close.
Speaker 3 (09:35):
It's nice.
Speaker 1 (09:36):
Yeah, So that way, it's not because I forget a
lot of times i'm playing with women, I just drive
past their tees, not on purpose, but I'm not used
to stopping because we don't play with a lot of women.
And so she goes, yeah, I play from the whites too,
and I'm like, oh no, oh man, dude, she's a beast.
Speaker 3 (09:51):
Really.
Speaker 1 (09:51):
Yeah, So we were we played just skins, so we were.
It was like through ten, we were even. Through thirteen,
I think we were even. She won the last three holes. Dude,
she hits it further than I do, and I hit
it further than well, you guys do. She crushes it.
So it was like whack, and my iron game was good.
I hit a wall like whole fourteen or fifty literal wall. No,
(10:14):
I was just tired of the day long day. But
she's she is an athlete, like elite athlete, and so
she didn't she didn't play for the women's tea. She
played from the dude seas Wow, and she hit it
further than me almost every time.
Speaker 4 (10:24):
Damn.
Speaker 1 (10:25):
Yeah. So good for her, Yeah, yeah, she's good for her.
Great great And so.
Speaker 3 (10:31):
Was she funny?
Speaker 1 (10:33):
I mean we were playing golf.
Speaker 3 (10:34):
And also that's the hard thing about comedians, Like you
expect me to be funny all the time, but like
they're just.
Speaker 1 (10:38):
Yeah, I think you don't have to be on Well,
she's funny, okay. But we were just kind of talking
shop a little bit. So it was we're talking content,
talk about TV show, so I did. We were just
kind of talking Yeah.
Speaker 3 (10:49):
So it's unfair to comedians because you always want them
to be funny, you know. When we saw Adam Sandler though,
he was kind of funny, like.
Speaker 1 (10:58):
On point, when Kevin Tarty a picture of them in.
Speaker 3 (11:00):
The I want going to say that.
Speaker 1 (11:03):
Thanks Eddie.
Speaker 3 (11:07):
Pictures of the airport.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
Yeah, so yeah, she's really good.
Speaker 3 (11:11):
That's cool.
Speaker 1 (11:12):
It's pretty crazy, Okay, I had a whole list of things.
So there's that, and there's that. I got my jacket. Ah.
You see, Texas State got invited the PAC twelve. The
huge especially when you come from Austin like that was southwest.
Speaker 3 (11:27):
I mean that's like south of Austin to be in
the Pacific Atlantic.
Speaker 1 (11:32):
What I'm going to that because there are schools that
were in the PAC twelve that around the AEC. I'm
not talking about that. I'm talking about that small school,
Texas State. Yeah, man is now going to be in
the PAC twelve. They're going to accept it. If they
haven't as a right now, they're about to accept it.
Wouldn't exactly. Yeah, and Texas is not that far from
the West coast when it comes to other schools, like
you're talking about California schools having a flight speaking of
(11:53):
Rutgers having a fly all the way across the country
to the Big Ten to do that. Yeah, so I
thought it was big. I thought it was crazy that
they got invited the pack.
Speaker 4 (12:00):
Mike did Mike go there? Yeah, you know, let's go.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
My school's gonna be a freaking outs go power four.
But maybe that'll be the power five again eventually, I
think is Boise State.
Speaker 4 (12:11):
Maybe gets in there. Yeah, so you know San Diego State.
Speaker 1 (12:17):
Anyway, I thought it was pretty cool. That is cool,
especially coming from Austin. Texas State also beat Texas and
baseball in the like the regionals this year of college baseball. Wow,
which was pretty wild up and coming. Okay, so we
got invited, I say we I did, But I anything
I can invite it to. I just expect you guys.
So maybe I should check with coach to make sure
you invited you guys too. But he's like, no, no,
(12:38):
not them, So I don't bring them.
Speaker 4 (12:41):
Whatever you do.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
I'm just gonna share all this stuff because I've had
it all on my list for a minute. So Brian
Anderson is he's been on the show before. He does
play by play for the Brewers. He's on NBA two
K is the voice of two K. I mean, he's
that announcer he does when he was with us. What
do we have want to talk about?
Speaker 4 (13:01):
It was a tournament, Yeah, it was the tournament. Yeah,
there's like after the first round.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
I believe because because he does everything. I don't remember
which sport we had him on for Watch Madness.
Speaker 2 (13:10):
Yeah, so.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
He hit me up and he said, hey, you should
come to Milwaukee for some Brewers because he does most
of the Brewers' home games. Yeah, And he said, do
you golf? And I was like, I golf? I said,
I never want to impose. I said, you do all
the Brewers home games he goes, Yeah, most of the
home games. He said, impose away and let's let's do
some golf and baseball. So we all got invited. I mean,
(13:35):
I guess we all didn't get invited.
Speaker 3 (13:36):
He didn't say that.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
I know.
Speaker 5 (13:38):
I know.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
His passport, that's true.
Speaker 3 (13:41):
Yeah, he leaves the state is America.
Speaker 1 (13:43):
Like, I'll never take him up on that. Maybe I should,
because he came to me to say that, but I
always felt like I'm just bothering, Like what am I
gonna do? Sit up there in the boots and watch him?
Speaker 3 (13:52):
Yeah, he just start him the whole time, Like, I
don't know, I.
Speaker 1 (13:55):
Don't know what the expectations did you get on the broadcast?
You might get still though I don't to, But so
does that mean have to sit up there for eight.
Speaker 3 (14:04):
No, they'll probably puts you somewhere else, right, And does
it also mean like I got you or does that
mean just come up and buy your own ticket.
Speaker 1 (14:13):
I think that means if I'm coming up, he got
because we're going to pick golf before the game, probably
like a night night game. I'm sure most of them are. Now,
it's not like Wriggling in the nineties stadium.
Speaker 3 (14:22):
It's cool too, it does look cool.
Speaker 4 (14:24):
Yeah, that's all with the slide, right, he goes all
the way down. Yeah, we can go on the slide because.
Speaker 1 (14:29):
We're all right, transfer the game on the slide into
another invitation. Come on, and I'll not have two more
to tell you about. And I'll probably not take up
take anybody up on these because I always feel like
I'm imposing all the time. So Lionel Richie was tweeting
or his Instagram store on the other night about all
(14:49):
of its concert dates. Have I told you as this?
And so it was all European dates and it's all
through like August, and I woke up like two in
the morning, so I was kind of out of it
and I'm just scrolling through and I saw that and
I was like, man, I love to come one of these,
thinking Lionel didn't run his own socials. But I know Lionel.
If we saw each other, we would definitely houg and
(15:11):
spend time together. Oh, Eddie was with me once and
we saw him. It was amazing, Yeah, because Lionel was
like somebody, He's like, Bobby, that's amazing. Like I probably
feel we're just going to his house and knocking on
his door, but he might maybe, And he responds back
and he was like, yes, come to a show. And
so I kind of remember that. I woke up and
he hit me. He says, which one do you want
to come to? Like Copenhagen, And I'm going, oh no,
(15:33):
Now I'm bound to go to European Lionel Richie show.
So I thought, Eddie, we could go, but you don't
have your passport.
Speaker 3 (15:39):
This is the second time I go to Milwaukee.
Speaker 1 (15:41):
It was these are the most you literally we would
go if I had somebody to go with. My wife
can't go.
Speaker 3 (15:48):
So I was still on hold on when when? When
do you think August? Because I'm doing my past in July.
Speaker 1 (15:54):
Yeah, but then it takes like three months to get
three months you get expendited costs.
Speaker 3 (15:59):
What about slipping.
Speaker 1 (16:01):
The government in Spain in August, in Spain in August, Eddie.
It just depends when you get your past, because week
you've never been out of country.
Speaker 3 (16:10):
By August, never Mexico, but that back then it was
a birth certificate. And you're good man.
Speaker 4 (16:14):
I hate to say this, but he's going to be
in Austin on October first.
Speaker 3 (16:18):
Austin, Texas.
Speaker 1 (16:20):
But that's not a show show. I don't think it's
a book tour.
Speaker 3 (16:24):
You're better, dude, better he reads his book.
Speaker 1 (16:31):
So we got about to go to European Lionel shows, Eddie.
You can't go to that one because you have a passport.
Speaker 3 (16:37):
And if you guys went without me, I'd.
Speaker 1 (16:38):
Be we wouldn't.
Speaker 4 (16:40):
We have nobody to blame about yourself.
Speaker 1 (16:42):
I got the final thing, and this one I've already
said yes to, and I can't say exactly what it
is right now. I might could, but I can say
part of what it is.
Speaker 3 (16:49):
So it's weird.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
Last year I was the MVP of the Major League
Baseball Celebrity All Star Softball Game.
Speaker 3 (16:57):
Did you play it out of your mind?
Speaker 1 (16:58):
Of my mind? I was telling today that we're playing golf.
I was like it was one of those nights where
I played way above what like my normal line is
like I'm pretty good and like I can play okay,
but I was out of my mind. Everything I was
hitting and anything hit at me, it was just gobble, gobble, gobble,
and so not Turkey like gobbling the balls up.
Speaker 3 (17:18):
Got it.
Speaker 1 (17:19):
And so the All Star Game is in Atlanta this year,
and it's in a couple of weeks, and so they
usually don't invite the same celebrities to the tournament. It's
not a tournament to the game, the celebrity game year
after year because whomever won the MVP the year before
it was actual baseball player. It was one of the
brothers that played for the Mariners, Boone, one of the
(17:41):
Boone brothers, and maybe it was either.
Speaker 3 (17:44):
Bread or he played on the Mariners.
Speaker 1 (17:46):
But cool. And then so they don't have the same
celebrities back. But I did get invited to do something else,
and you can't say what it is. I can't say
what it is. However, I don't think they have people.
Speaker 3 (18:05):
I don't think they the real home run derby.
Speaker 1 (18:08):
I don't think they have like quote unquote celebrities do that.
But here's the thing that I have to do.

It is super cool and I gotta go. I gotta
go to the baseball batting cages.
Speaker 5 (18:45):

Speaker 3 (18:46):
My mind's spinning right now with a lot of options.

time out of the country.
Speaker 1 (20:48):
I've been the airport in Amsterdam.
Speaker 3 (20:49):
That doesn't count, doesn't count.
Speaker 1 (20:51):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (20:52):
Hey, even if it doesn't get here, he's gotta he's

Speaker 1 (21:05):
September eleventh and Buenos Airis.
Speaker 3 (21:08):
I'm not from there.
Speaker 1 (21:09):
I don't want to go there. That's more like, yeah,
that'd be more like.
Speaker 3 (21:13):
Have you seen concerts from those South American places, Like yeah,
like there's a Pearl damn concert. I think it's in Argentina.
It looks like I mean, it looks like a wave
of people just jumping out the whole show. They don't.
Speaker 1 (21:25):
I think they're just happy that like big acts because
they don't get down to South America a lot. Oh yeah, yeah,
that's why it's like, Honestly, if I go to North
Dakota and like do a show, they freak out because
they're just happy anybody's there. Like I'd be like good. Yeah,
coming up Virginia Tech head football coach Brent Prye. We
will talk to him right after this. Hey, coach, appreciate
(21:48):
the time, absolutely. Man. Got a couple of things. First,
we were just talking about the Metallica concert they were here,
and I think of Metallica now with Virginia Tech because
when you guys walk like that's really one of the
most sick entterests to the college football even just in
sports period. But then we started talking about the first
did you go to the concert when they were there?
Speaker 2 (22:08):
Yes, sir?
Speaker 1 (22:09):
Who opened that show?
Speaker 2 (22:10):
Pantera?
Speaker 1 (22:11):
Did you get a chance to watch Pantera at all
I did not? Okay, did you get there from Metallica?
And how was Metallic What kind of energy to Metallica
still bring?
Speaker 5 (22:19):
I wasn't a Metallica fan going into it. I'm a
Metallica fan coming out the other side. They really put
on a great show. You know, got a chance to
meet them, really humble guys, kind they understood the gravity
of what the show meant to so many hokey, faithful,
so all in all, I was impressed.
Speaker 1 (22:39):
Do you remember the first time you walked into the
stadium as that song was playing? Your first game as
head coach as head coach at Virginia Tech.
Speaker 2 (22:46):
You know a game that was first time it habited
was the spring game.
Speaker 5 (22:49):
I'm at the end of the tunnel and the team's
behind me. You've got one of our staffers after giving
me the countdown five four, three, two one, and then
you hit it running. You get everybody charging out behind you.
She's on like three, and the guys just push and
they start coming out. I mean, I about wiped out
my very first time running out to that. That's no joke,
(23:12):
I said, you guys, see this person up here with.
Speaker 2 (23:14):
A hand up counting down. I'm not leaving until he
tells me.
Speaker 1 (23:19):
These spring games have changed. What are you guys doing
this year? A lot of schools aren't having them at all.
Speaker 5 (23:24):
Yeah, we believe in them. I still want that for
our fans. I want it for our kids. I think
it's a good experience to be in the in the stadium.
You know, we play four quarters. It's kind of modified.
The first one is a true quarter, and then second, third,
and fourth have some modifications. But it's good for some
of our young players and our developmental guys. I think
(23:46):
the you know, our fans. It's a big weekend in Blacksburg.
There's always softball and baseball.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
And lots going on.
Speaker 5 (23:53):
So it's, uh, you know, it's something that we get
excited about around here. I'd hate to see it go away.
Speaker 1 (23:59):
So you in Nashville with coach Franklin, correct, and you
moved to Penn State with him?
Speaker 2 (24:03):
Yes, sir?
Speaker 1 (24:03):
What was he like to work under?
Speaker 2 (24:05):
Oh, he's great. Yeah, he's he's a great leader. You know.
Speaker 5 (24:08):
Obviously we had a lot of success at Vanderbilt that
they hadn't hadn't achieved prior to that. You know, we
had good staff, good people, and I loved our players there.
We had really good teams. Never the most talented, but
better teams.
Speaker 2 (24:24):
And uh, you know James and I.
Speaker 5 (24:27):
He played quarterback for my father in college and I
was a young coach and my first child. This was
at East Strausburg, little D two school in the Poconotes.
Speaker 2 (24:38):
And so we've been friends a long time.
Speaker 5 (24:39):
We came up in this business, you know, so I
was excited to jump on board with him and joined
forces at Vanderbilt and then Penn State for a bunch
of years.
Speaker 2 (24:48):
It was tough to leave, even for a head job
like Virginia Tech.
Speaker 5 (24:51):
You know, I loved working with James, and we accomplished
a lot of Penn State and Vanderbilt. In fact, when
I told him I said I'm gonna take this job
at Virginia, he said, what do you mean.
Speaker 2 (25:01):
I thought we were going to coach together forever. I'm like, James,
it's the head job at Virginia Tech. I'm not going
to turn this one down.
Speaker 1 (25:11):
I feel like I've been lucky enough to go to
a lot of cool places and see a lot of atmospheres.
I've not been to Virginia Tech. Like, so, what's cool
about Blacksburg? Well, if I came and went to a game,
what would I leave thinking and saying?
Speaker 2 (25:21):
You would say, I can't believe this place is so beautiful.
Speaker 5 (25:24):
I had no idea from you know, the the area,
the region of the country that it's in southwest Virginia
and the mountains. And then on top of that, everybody
in Blacksburg and everybody with Virginia Tech is just the
friendliest place. You know, our matra is this is this
(25:45):
is home, and that's why that's that's real. In our place,
people are very kind and generous, and it's a servant
minded place. But then the atmosphere in that stadium, you know,
we're it's it's blue collar Virginia Tech's shirts or T shirts.
Everybody stands up for the When you got an entrance
like that, he gets people pretty hype for the game.
(26:07):
So it's arguably the best entrance, but the atmosphere itself
carries through and there's been some incredible games in that
stadium and I was fortunate to be a part a
bunch of them. You know, my first run there ninety five,
six and seven is when we really were turning the
corner and we went to a Sugar Bowl in Big
Texas on New Year's Eve, followed it up with an
(26:28):
Orange Bowl trip against Nebraska and did some big things.
So it's always been special for me. It's that kind
of place. I tell our recruits and families. It's not
for everybody, but for those that identify with Virginia Tech,
it can be pretty special and you're going to leave
there loving it.
Speaker 2 (26:45):
Well.
Speaker 1 (26:46):
Can you give me a Coach Beamer story from your
first run there?
Speaker 2 (26:49):
Yeah, I tell you. He's He's one of the most
kind and.
Speaker 5 (26:54):
Considerate head coaches I've ever been around. He's just, you know,
you always wanted to make him proud.
Speaker 2 (27:02):
No matter what. I still feel that way.
Speaker 5 (27:03):
He comes into building a couple of days a week
and it's like, you know, surreal for me, I said,
at his desk he watched. I'm like, Coach, you want
to sit down, I get up, get you need to paper,
Like what can I do for you? Like, you know,
I come down the hallway here, here's all his college
Football Hall of Fame and all these accomplishments, and then
(27:24):
I walk into his office and so its maxed me
in the face every day. But uh, you know, that's
what I remember about coach. He was very smart, he
was very fair. He wanted you to treat others the
right way, you know, So cut my teeth there under
him and under Bud Foster.
Speaker 2 (27:41):
And those guys.
Speaker 5 (27:42):
So you know, it's great that we still see Coach,
you know, around town and in our in our facility.
Speaker 1 (27:49):
Kind of weird that some of the teams and you
guys will have to do it too, But Cal's like
traveling to you guys this year, that that that's a
that's a long trip for those California guys to travel
all all the way over, and you guys gotta make
some of those. Looking at your schedule next year, you're
not playing anywhere West, but you do have some of
these teams coming over, Like when a team like Cow
comes over. Do you is that advantageous to the home
(28:13):
team knowing they're completely off their clock, their circadian rhythm
is completely different.
Speaker 3 (28:17):
It can be.
Speaker 5 (28:18):
I mean, it's obviously challenging. We went to Stanford last year.
We had a tough loss down at Miami on the
last played a game, and we had to follow that
up with a trip to Stanford, and in some ways
it was refreshing to get out of town kind of
get that loss even more behind us, and we went
(28:40):
out an extra day early. Our performance staff did a
tremendous job planning a trip. We were able to spend
some time with Hokies and friends that were with the
forty nine ers. We stayed right near their facility and
found good spot to practice and honestly played very well.
(29:03):
I think again, my hat's off to our performance group
that planned the trip, and our guys felt great in
a really good place. The administration supported us traveling the
right way, you know, on the right kind of plane,
and staying as long as we needed to to give
us the best chance to win in a challenging situation
(29:23):
like that.
Speaker 1 (29:24):
Do you guys have a general manager for football?
Speaker 2 (29:27):
We do?
Speaker 1 (29:27):
And how has that been because that's a whole new relationship,
because it's a whole new position.
Speaker 2 (29:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (29:31):
So the president of our collective triumph a fellow named
Kelly Worldwide. He's really the GM right now. But we've
got a you know, a second mate named Mike Casel.
It's been my chief of staff. He was with us
at Vanderbilt, he was with us the entire time at
Penn State, a very valuable member of the crew. Those
two guys, along with a couple of a couple of
(29:54):
other associates, kind of run that thing for us. But
the biggest challenge with with the front office and contracts
and it's everybody being syncd up. You know, you've got
a vein that you're coaching staff. You're ten to fifteen
guys now at this point. You got a vein that's
your recruiting department, your communications, you're on campus visits, and
(30:18):
then you have a vein that's your front office. You know,
that's contracts and inventory, and so getting all three of
those wings synced up and on the same page and
understanding where we are with particularly recruits. You're guys on
our team. You know that takes a lot of work,
takes great communication.
Speaker 1 (30:39):
How do you guys pick captains?
Speaker 5 (30:41):
So everybody has a vote, and the coaches vote counts twice.
You know, obviously we coach our guys up on what
Catholics look like and leaders look like. There's a lot
invested there so that they're choosing guys for the right reasons.
And in the end I'll have the final say so,
but you know, everybody's input is very important to me.
Speaker 1 (31:03):
Got to win schime their coach, what kind of wind
chiming working with there?
Speaker 5 (31:06):
We got three dogs contractors in it now here, I
am second day vacation. I meant the DMV, getting a
boat registered. I picked up a couple of palm trees
at home. People sitting in beach traffic.
Speaker 1 (31:22):
Do you feel like you need to have those dead
periods or coaches need to have dead periods, otherwise they
would never take a break and eventually just fry themselves.
Speaker 2 (31:29):
Yeah, it's hard.
Speaker 5 (31:30):
Now, I'm a big believer in balance, not just for
myself or our staff, but for our team. I can't
personally be at my best and deliver my a game
if I don't get some balance in some time off
and away from them. But with today's technology, you know,
I mean, I've got zooms, I've got staff calls, I've
got recruiting needs. I mean there's guys trying to make
(31:52):
decisions right now. You know, out of the high school
ov's were coming off of, so there's a lot of
work that still has to be done. Can't shut it down.
I'll find a day maybe once a week here these
next few weeks where I just step away from the
phone and the iPad and clear my schedule. But you're
(32:13):
kind of juggling it all. It's just it doesn't stop.
But it's nice to be able to get out of
town and get away. And I love this time of
year because the coaches get a chance to take a
break and the team becomes player led. You know, your strengths,
dass involved, but everything else is the leaders on that
(32:33):
team stepping up and leading the groups.
Speaker 1 (32:36):
I have three final questions. I do want to talk
about Michah Parsons for a second. He was awesome, right, Like,
what do you even ask he just in college? He
looked awesome. He's still dominant.
Speaker 3 (32:45):
What was he like to coach?
Speaker 2 (32:46):
Well?
Speaker 5 (32:46):
I recruited Micah from ninth grade, the Lion coach and
I went down and watched him play, and he had
two and a half sacks, one for a fumble, he
blocked a punt, he blocked an extra point, and he
was the first just one down on kickoff. So we
offered him that night. He's clearly one of the most
talented guys I've ever coached in thirty five years. But
(33:08):
what separated him was he's arguably the most competitive guy
I've ever coached. When it came to, you know, competing
in one on ones or tire pools or pass rush.
Speaker 2 (33:20):
Or bowling or chess, you name it. He wanted to
win so badly.
Speaker 5 (33:26):
That's when he was at his absolute best, you know,
and his talent really came through.
Speaker 1 (33:31):
Two questions left, Do you keep notes of the motivational
things that you say so you don't repeat them?
Speaker 2 (33:37):
No, I'm pretty organic, you know.
Speaker 5 (33:40):
I try and keep a good pulse on our team
and our staff and our culture, and you know, I'm
a big quote guy and good you know messaging. We
coach mentality as hard as we coaching anything else. I
just think it's a skill set that you want to
make sure guys are maximizing, just like speed or strength
or ability.
Speaker 2 (33:58):
To catch the ball.
Speaker 5 (34:00):
So we coached all the time, and you know, team building.
We've doubled down there this offseason. Every Wednesday was devoted
to team building. We try to stay clear of anything
football other than that. But you know, I think it's
important that you understand.
Speaker 2 (34:16):
Where your team is.
Speaker 5 (34:17):
And it's not just what I think. You know, there's communication,
there's feedback. I grow the most as a coach, you know,
through the feedback through some hard conversations, and so for me,
it's organic and I want it to be genuine and
real and we're very transparent at our place both ways.
Speaker 1 (34:38):
So a final question just to do with the schedule.
You guys have a pretty favorable schedule when it comes
to where you're playing, who you're playing. And I'm not
asking a goal as far as a record, but like
generally speaking, what's the goal that you're going into the season.
What do you guys have upon the board?
Speaker 5 (34:52):
Yeah, we want to play. We want to play to
our potential. We don't feel like we did that last year,
not consistently. We played really well at times, but to
be the team that can compete, you know, for a
championship in this league and try and slide in those playoffs,
and we got to play to our potential. We're more
than talented enough to do it. And we've got the
(35:13):
investment in the sacrifice where it needs to be, you know,
as coaches and players, you know, we got to reach
our potential each week.
Speaker 1 (35:22):
Coach, really appreciate the time. One day we're gonna get
out there. When you get out to call Tech.
Speaker 3 (35:27):
I hear you. I hear you. It's close.
Speaker 2 (35:28):
Will not regret it. We will not regret it.
Speaker 1 (35:31):
I hear you. You like the color? You like the
color of gin Tech color? What is that color? I'm colorblind?
But what color would you say?
Speaker 3 (35:36):
That is?
Speaker 1 (35:36):
What color?
Speaker 2 (35:37):
Do they say that we're orange of maroon?
Speaker 1 (35:39):
That's maroon? Do you guys collect that maroon?
Speaker 3 (35:42):
It kind of looks like maroon.
Speaker 1 (35:43):
I'm color I'm colorblind, for like for sure, for sure,
I didn't know it's maroon. Maybe I like them a
little more than that. Yeah, I didn't know, coach Hope,
you have a good break. Thank you for giving us
the time. And uh do you say, go hokies? What
do you what do you guys say at the end
of interviews? Yeah, go hoky, go hokey. All right, coach good.
Speaker 3 (36:00):
See you all right.
Speaker 1 (36:07):
Thanks to Coach Pry for being on. I watched NBA
drafts mildly entertained for like six minutes. I only wanted
to see two things. Did they draft Cooper Flag at
number one? They did, obviously, And where would Ace Bailey go?
Because he was like, I don't want to play for
and he listed all the teams and he got drafted
by one of the teams he didn't want to play
(36:28):
for because he probably would have been the second or
third pick, the kid from Ruggers. He was hurt a
little bit. But Dylan Harper, which is crazy, also played
at Ruggers. But his dad, you know his dad is Yeah.
Speaker 4 (36:36):
Harper didn't known till after he got drafted.
Speaker 1 (36:38):
Yeah, when number two.
Speaker 6 (36:40):
His mom got a lot of attention too. I don't
know if he said Kevin talked about her.
Speaker 4 (36:45):
I didn't say no such thing.
Speaker 1 (36:47):
I didn't say no such thing. What was it?
Speaker 3 (36:51):
Me?
Speaker 1 (36:52):
Ton Kannepple went forward to Charlotte. Oh, and he had
all his brothers, like he's the oldest of like five brothers.
Really yeah, and they're all like big, tall, athletic white boys,
even the smallest one, and he's the oldest.
Speaker 3 (37:03):
So that means they're gonna be Yeah, they're gonna be
up there.
Speaker 1 (37:06):
And Ace Bailey went to Utah so and he hasn't
showed up yet yet. That's all the right now. Even
the press conference he didn't. I mean, he wasn't there
for the press conference.
Speaker 3 (37:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (37:13):
And uh, the Florida kid he got drafted by them too, right,
and he's there. Yeah, but their top five pick isn't there?
Speaker 1 (37:19):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (37:20):
Is that Braddy?
Speaker 1 (37:21):
Like yeah, it's entitlement sure, and when they draft him.
Because I stopped watching after that because there were no
Arkansas guys. I just wanted to see those two people,
Cooper Flag and where Ace Bailey fell to because once
the Baylor kid went at three, I was like Aaron
Rodgers action were into it. Let's see how long. But
then Bailey went at five. Yeah, I thought he'd fall
to six because he said he did not want to
play for Utah. But Utah was like yeah, shut up,
(37:45):
don't care. Well, Utah has freaking Danny Ainge as the
gu and Danny ahe d gaf. Danny Ainge is like
the greatest human athlete I think the earth has ever
seen in general. Have you ever see that he played
minor league baseball NBA, was like great All state quarterback
in high school whatever all that is. But he like
one of the greatest peer athletes ever. And he was like,
(38:07):
all right, he's Bailey came on drafting him.
Speaker 4 (38:09):
Yeah, he doesn't care. And that Celtics doc that came
out recently, he talked about when he was playing on
the Celtics and Larry Bird was getting older, he's he
told their GM trade him, get him out of here.
It's like Larry Bird like, I don't care.
Speaker 1 (38:22):
That's what Belichick did though. Yeah, he'd try to trade
him a year before they would get bad, rather than
a year after. Belichick he would try to trade Larry Bird. No, no, no,
I think you're mixing up stories here. I was making
a Kevin analogy. I got it.
Speaker 3 (38:36):
I got it.
Speaker 1 (38:36):
Yeah, Yeah, that's why I traded. That's why Brady ended
up not being kept. Yeah, because he wasn't traded. He
left as a free agent correct in one of those
suit that was crazy one. So yeah, yeah, uh, it
was mildly entertaining. And then I wanted to see where
I do. Therea went and he was drafted I think
by Brooklyn and then traded the Lakers. He's an Arkansas
guy early second round. But yeah, what's up?
Speaker 3 (38:58):
I saw the Cowboys like Michael Parsons and and Ceedee Lamb, like,
all right, flag, welcome to Dallas. Cooper's coming. Oh yeah,
pretty cool. One of they'll hang out and be friends
and stuff.
Speaker 1 (39:11):
Why not?
Speaker 3 (39:11):
No, probably not.
Speaker 1 (39:12):
Halliburton does have a torn achilles. That sucks so bad
for the fan base. It sucks for him, but it
sucks so bad for the fan base because they lost
Game seven. Let's say they lost it with Halliburton, there
was there would be so much excitement going into next year, hm,
because the whole core group would be back. Yeah, and
now he's gonna miss the whole year.
Speaker 3 (39:33):
And even when you do come back, like, I just like,
can you play one hundred percent?
Speaker 1 (39:38):
I saw a stat all these famous players they torn
achilles and came back, what their percentage was versus what
the percentage was afterward.
Speaker 3 (39:47):
And that's cool.
Speaker 1 (39:48):
It didn't look good.
Speaker 3 (39:49):
Yeah, I mean you just you just worry now because
how how easy it was when it happened, and.
Speaker 1 (39:54):
I wish I had that. I don't have it because
it's it didn't look good. What a stupid thing to say.
But there was not a single person that was as
good as before they were injured. And what sucks to Halibert,
I mean Kevin and the Celtics, like Jason Tatum prime
of his career. I mean, Clay is one of the
last people that I remember it.
Speaker 3 (40:11):
Being Durant too in that finals. Yep.
Speaker 1 (40:13):
Yeah, So that sucks for the town of Indianapolis because
they had so much to be excited about even after
a loss.
Speaker 3 (40:21):
At least they got Kitten Clark. That's what I was
gonna say. They have Kitlin Clark.
Speaker 1 (40:24):
Yeah, that's pretty awesome, but not the same, not the same,
not the same.
Speaker 3 (40:29):
They got the Colts.
Speaker 7 (40:31):
Yeah, they that's true too, but Colts not the same.
That the race is still there, not the draft, the
combine combine some stuff.
Speaker 3 (40:46):
About it though.
Speaker 6 (40:47):
Yeah, did you guys see that Yang Hansen guy that
got drafted? Like the second coming of Yao ming over here?
Speaker 1 (40:54):
Now, I was more thinking about like Indy.
Speaker 3 (40:58):
Oh is he from Indy?
Speaker 1 (41:02):
He, of course he's not. Sucks for Indy. I mean
produce like an hour above Indy. Yeah, they have coach.
Speaker 3 (41:13):
Upside.
Speaker 1 (41:13):
Yeah that sucks. Sorry, Andy, Yeah, Durantce go onto the Rockets.
So we talked about that.
Speaker 3 (41:19):
Yeah, I'll hit you with a.
Speaker 1 (41:20):
Quick list, my quick list of the most annoying fan
bases in sports. Look at the cameras. We'll get this
for a get secial clip.
Speaker 3 (41:27):
Cowboys are on there first.
Speaker 7 (41:28):
And now.
Speaker 3 (41:30):
Why do you talk over me again? Okay?
Speaker 1 (41:32):
Hold on? Did you maybe didn't talk over me? Take
two action and now the most annoying fan base is
in sports, according to me, in the leather jacket in
the summer, you have sweating a whole bit.
Speaker 3 (41:46):
You gotta leave it.
Speaker 1 (41:47):
Leave it on. At number five, Philadelphia Eagles fans amen.
Not because they win, that's cool. I kind of like
the grit of the Eagles, but because I'm scared of them.
Speaker 3 (42:01):
They're mean.
Speaker 1 (42:03):
Net's become their identity, so they do it more just
for it to remain their identity. So, Eagles fans, I
am scared of you, but enough of them will beat
you up.
Speaker 3 (42:12):
We got it, Okay.
Speaker 1 (42:14):
Number four, the Dallas Cowboys, Oh stupid, fair weather and loud.
I'd like to do two impressions of a Dallas Cowboys
fan impression and one. Two games into the season, we're
two and oh, we can win this thing. Let's go
the little Cowboys. Whoa two weeks later, God, we're two
(42:36):
and two. We suck. We're the worst. I quit watching
the game. Thank you. Those are my impressions.
Speaker 3 (42:41):
Pretty accurate.
Speaker 1 (42:41):
Yeah yeah. At number three on my list, Duke Basketball.
Bunch of rich kids who have great haircuts, and their
haircuts are always fresh, which means they spend a lot
of money on haircuts because you have to get them
all the time to remain fresh. And that's how we
know you're rich. You've always got a fresh hair cut.
You're rich. And because ESPN loves you so much, I
(43:05):
don't so. At number three, most annoying fan bases Duke
basketball and what's that.
Speaker 3 (43:10):
Thing they do? Random player? It's annoying.
Speaker 1 (43:14):
OHT mind that so much? Ye know? For me, it's
the fresh aircuts all the time.
Speaker 3 (43:18):
I don't know why.
Speaker 1 (43:19):
It's always a thing. At number two, Tennessee Volunteer Football,
Go balls worst but catch you a song In sports
you would think by the entitlement they have as a
football program that they've won the last ten national titles
in football. I just checked. Nope, not at all. No
(43:42):
national titles a long time.
Speaker 4 (43:43):
When's the last time, Kevin nineteen ninety nine.
Speaker 1 (43:46):
Yeah, it's a bad a year for me. That's t
Martin here, that's US fumbling, Arkansas fumbling. We lost that game.
That's also why I kind of probably hate them. And
because they live close, you kind of hate that number one.
Speaker 3 (44:01):
Oh, I know this one.
Speaker 1 (44:02):
I bet you don't obvious. I bet you don't.
Speaker 3 (44:11):
No star Orange.
Speaker 1 (44:14):
Oh, Texas, Well, they're not the most number.
Speaker 3 (44:17):
I'm shocked.
Speaker 4 (44:18):
Not the team he haates the most, the most annoying
fan base.
Speaker 3 (44:20):
Yes, oh, the fan base of Texas is.
Speaker 1 (44:24):
Oh. I hate the Longhorns as a team. Yeah, and Kansas.
We're taught to hate the freaking Longhorns. And they have
more money than everybody and they don't win near as
much of some of the buddies, which is crazy. If
you have more money and you have more resources, you
should be able to turn those resources into national championships,
and they don't. But this isn't a Texas hater. They
don't even make my top five most annoying. I don't
even they don't even exist in the base world. Okay, yeah,
(44:48):
I don't feel like they're that like actively annoying. No, right, no,
I hate them, but they're not annoying.
Speaker 3 (44:54):
Yeah, no, I'll never forget.
Speaker 5 (44:56):
Man.
Speaker 3 (44:56):
I was working on a Saturday morning at my news
station right by the stadium and they saw some two
Texas fans peen on my tires. Ever since then, you
guys are annoying.
Speaker 1 (45:05):
Isn't that individuals though, Well, it's more like a personally.
Speaker 4 (45:08):
Cowboys fans do that.
Speaker 1 (45:11):
Every Cowboys fan is peene on eddie. The number one
most annoying fan base in all of sports is and
by the way, they are the most entitled group in
the history of sports fans. And they show up by
the hundreds, and it's like a virus that takes over
wherever they're going into. And it's Kentucky basketball, man, And
(45:34):
let's say there are ten thousand Kentucky basketball fans. If
I were to do the math, sixteeth.
Speaker 3 (45:41):
Oh, come by carry the one. Yeah, there you go.
That's cold, dude, And we got your coach. What do
you think about that? Yeah, he's not wearing blue anymore.
Speaker 1 (45:54):
Dude, this jacket's so hot. You're sweaty jackets. You're getting you.
I'm going to freaking leather lame pleathar lame jacket, sweating
my balls off. The thing I have to say about
all five of these, though, is like you have to
respect it. They're annoying because they win.
Speaker 3 (46:13):
That's right, It's true, especially number four on your list there.
You gotta respect it.
Speaker 1 (46:17):
No, that one's a fair weather what do you mean, Yeah,
that's the only one that doesn't really.
Speaker 3 (46:20):
A full list. You gotta respect of that list.
Speaker 2 (46:23):
You winning.
Speaker 1 (46:26):
I think the Cowboys got annoying because of the winning
they did in the nineties. They just can't let it go.
Speaker 3 (46:29):
Yeah, we're still hoping that happens again.
Speaker 1 (46:32):
That's my list most annoying fan bases in sports. Thank
you everybody. All right, we're done. You know what, guys,
I hope you have a good, good weekend.
Speaker 3 (46:42):
Thank you. Man.
Speaker 1 (46:43):
Usually don't hope that for you guys, but you actually
never know. I know, I hope you do.
Speaker 3 (46:47):
You're trying to jinx our weekend.
Speaker 1 (46:49):
Let me think about this for a second. Eddie's a
Cowboys fan. Yes, that affects me. Brandon's a Cowboys fan.
That affects me. Kevin's a Tennessee fan. That's stupid, like
a Texas fan. But that fan. Mike's nice though.
Speaker 3 (47:01):
Mike's Cowboys fan too. Yeah, yes, yes, yes, I.
Speaker 4 (47:05):
Don't put mic and sme categories at you though.
Speaker 3 (47:08):
Humans.
Speaker 1 (47:08):
Oh, I don't give up like Eddie does. Eddie gives
up every game, every game they lose.
Speaker 3 (47:14):
When you're starting, quarterback goes down. Yeah, you start giving up.
Speaker 4 (47:17):
He stops watching games when they're losing.
Speaker 3 (47:19):
That's not true. I've never done that.
Speaker 1 (47:21):
It just goes to soccer. He didn't watch football anymore.
He watches football. He's like, I'm out of here, horses. Yes,
I do that. Thank you.
Speaker 3 (47:28):
Everybody.
Speaker 1 (47:29):
Have a great weekend. And most of you, guys, hope
you have a good weekend. Two still considering eighty percent
of you, hope you have a great weekend. All right.

next time here on twenty five Whistles
It's a podcast call twenty five.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
Whist Stuarts and they wear a whist So, yeah, it's too.
Speaker 3 (00:11):
Bad, but what did you expect.
Speaker 1 (00:13):
It's a podcast called twenty five Whistles Wine. Welcome to
the show, edibowl the whistle. Let me show you got
something real quick. So open my mail, upten my glasses off.
In the mail, had this sent to me?
Speaker 2 (00:34):
Check it out?
Speaker 1 (00:36):
Oh it is a Purdue football helmet.
Speaker 3 (00:40):
Is it a boiler maker?
Speaker 1 (00:41):
It's a boiler maker helmet. It's a real one. Dude,
that's legit and go run into trees out of there.
Speaker 3 (00:47):
That gold is so beautiful.
Speaker 1 (00:48):
Yeah, wow, coach olt him send me the helmet.
Speaker 4 (00:51):
That's all shiny.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
And he said we should come up and be on
the sidelines for one of the games. And I told
him it's too cold, but if we come it'll be early.
Speaker 4 (01:00):
Have you looked at their schedule?
Speaker 1 (01:01):
I did. He sent me their schedule last night.
Speaker 3 (01:03):
Okay, what are you looking at? Well?
Speaker 1 (01:04):
I looked at ruggers. I also want to be there
for a game they can win. He's rebuilding a program.
You have.
Speaker 3 (01:09):
Every time you talk to hevit goes up and down.
It's too funny.
Speaker 1 (01:12):
Okay, so I got that, but probably gonna be ruggers
because I would like to have a game that they
have a chance of winning. I don't know Rutgers is
going to be good, but there's a reason they hired
a new coach, which is coach Odham, because the team
has not been good lately, so he's having to rebuild
the team. But he came to town. We hung out
at the Opry together. I took his daughter to meet
Laney Wilson. I told you all that, and yeah, he
sent me the helmet and the mail out of the
(01:32):
house and was like coming to whatever. So I don't know. Strategically,
I would need to see who Arkansas's playing, match it
up against it.
Speaker 3 (01:40):
Yeah, yeah, And I don't want to be so cold.
Speaker 1 (01:43):
What do you see, Kevin?
Speaker 4 (01:44):
I mean early on September thirteenth, they play usc which.
Speaker 3 (01:48):
You like that one Southern cal.
Speaker 1 (01:49):
But also I don't want to have to like go
and be in the way for like a big, big
game too. It's not that, isn't Eddie, which he sent
hats for saying, oh, there's this.
Speaker 3 (01:58):
One from Let's see I like that first one gold
gold brimde That gold is so cool. Looking.
Speaker 1 (02:05):
Thank you, coach, Kevin.
Speaker 4 (02:06):
Uh oh, dang, yeah, the one on your right hand.
Speaker 1 (02:11):
Okay, and Brandon, you have the last man standing, so
you don't get a hat. Casey, was you for a
long time?
Speaker 3 (02:21):
Graduated? Dude?
Speaker 2 (02:22):
There you go.
Speaker 3 (02:23):
Welcome to the club, Casey, thank you.
Speaker 1 (02:24):
It used to be Casey who didn't get so now
it's Brandon. So Brandon, you have to kill somebody, thanks coach.
So that happens last night.
Speaker 3 (02:35):
Quick question, though, do you think has this pushing it?
It could be pushing it. You think we can ask
coach if we can dress up, like dress up like
a boiler maker, like gear and everything from the sideline.
Speaker 1 (02:46):
We don't play obviously, but like just kind of standing.
I think there are rules about dressing. I don't know
though now because of new scholarship rules and I don't know. No,
I'm not gonna ask that though.
Speaker 3 (02:59):
Okay, because that'd be will do the recruit?
Speaker 1 (03:03):
Yeah, yeah, I'm gonna that would be funny though. So
I posted on my Twitter a video of me slapping
the helmet right, and I was like, I just got this,
And so then I get at a tweet d M.
Here we go and it says, hey, Bobby Hope is
(03:24):
find you doing well? Saw the post with you and
the Purdue helmet? Are you collecting them? Question mark? And
it's from Oh, I know who it is. You don't. No,
it's not from another Purdue person. Guess it's from Kansas
head coach Lance Leopold, who's been on the show. And
I said, I'm friends with the coach, otom but I
(03:44):
wouldn't turn one down from you, And he goes sending
you one to the mail.
Speaker 3 (03:50):
Dude, that's your thing, your accident.
Speaker 1 (03:53):
I didn't ask over the helmet.
Speaker 3 (03:55):
You're gonna get the whole college football collection.
Speaker 1 (03:59):
Yeah, he says, Oh, I didn't even see. He asked
me whide or blue.
Speaker 3 (04:05):
Blue? You gotta go the traditional blue that's got the
whole jayhawk on it.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
Right, just saw this, will take the blue and talking
about it on the show.
Speaker 3 (04:21):
Now Edy wants one too?
Speaker 1 (04:24):
Is this too much to ask? Can we dress?
Speaker 3 (04:31):
Boom?
Speaker 1 (04:32):
Okay, So now we got that coming.
Speaker 3 (04:33):
In cool Huh, that's awesome. And then when you get
that one, who's gonna who's gonna video and who also
wants some of this action?
Speaker 1 (04:41):
So yeah, so we're we're secondary Purdue fans.
Speaker 4 (04:44):
I'm dealing with that, I love it.
Speaker 2 (04:46):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (04:46):
So the other thing is this is not a gift
for anybody, but.
Speaker 3 (04:49):
A follow up here we keep thinking there's a gift.
Speaker 1 (04:52):
What else my leather jacket market. I told you, guys,
I was ordering a leather jacket from a razor back.
Leather jacket is sweet, too expensive, I don't know, like
it's leather good.
Speaker 3 (05:10):
You look tough, and.
Speaker 1 (05:17):
Look at the back.
Speaker 4 (05:21):
You needn't getting the hog on a hog, you know
what I'm saying.
Speaker 3 (05:28):
What did the wife think of that?
Speaker 1 (05:30):
Well, I'm glad you asked, because I opened it with
her around purposefully and I said, hey, me and the
guys from the show, we're talking about how you'd feel
about this jacket. And I put it on and she
looked at it and she said, well, that does look
like something you waste your money on. And then she said,
and it also looks like something you wear one time
(05:51):
and never again.
Speaker 3 (05:52):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
And I said, but that one time I'll be looking good,
that's right. And she said, this will just collec dust
on the closet.
Speaker 3 (05:58):
I don't see that happening.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
Like a leather dude.
Speaker 3 (06:01):
That looks so good, dude, and the pop callar good.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
Yeah, you know this car is automatic.
Speaker 4 (06:12):
Grease lighted a cigarette in your mouth?
Speaker 1 (06:18):
Oh yeah, grease lightning, grease lightning.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (06:21):
Man, so feeling pretty good. I got my pretty helmet,
my razor back, leather jacket.
Speaker 3 (06:25):
Dude, you're living life right now.
Speaker 1 (06:26):
Man, life is so good.
Speaker 4 (06:28):
You're like one of those characters where it's like, you know,
if the quarterback had the head of this and the
body of this, and it's like a different team for
each part of your body.
Speaker 1 (06:37):
Yeah, well I only have I don't have the helmet
on anymore. But yeah, what today? Huh?
Speaker 4 (06:42):
Yeah, that's pretty cool.
Speaker 3 (06:43):
You you have a choice so purposely. You're not gonna
wear that one time and one time only.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
Well, I won't wear it now because it's summer.
Speaker 3 (06:54):
Yeah, but it's cold in the studio, so keep it on.
Speaker 1 (06:56):
I normally i'll wear it for this show. I normally
don't wear leather anyway, just for animals, you know.
Speaker 3 (07:00):
Oh yeah about is it real leather though?
Speaker 1 (07:02):
Or is it pleather?
Speaker 3 (07:05):
Smell? Let me smell.
Speaker 1 (07:06):
Always got a hole in it. It's a leather jacket
on the oh than, but it could be pleather. What
do you think that smells like? That is a heart sniff,
no smell dud.
Speaker 3 (07:15):
You should wear that's a bit every night.
Speaker 1 (07:17):
What what is no smell? Man? Leather?
Speaker 3 (07:19):
I think it's pleather.
Speaker 1 (07:21):
Why would you bring that even into the mixed though?
Take me down because and you will not get ahead
next time either. The one guy who didn't get a trade.
It's all upset, it's bitter.
Speaker 4 (07:30):
Yeah, I'm just saying you don't have to worry about
the animals.
Speaker 3 (07:33):
Oh, good point.
Speaker 1 (07:34):
Good point. I took it as an insults.
Speaker 3 (07:36):
Good point.
Speaker 1 (07:37):
That's actually a good point. And I think that what
I said. Yeah, I know you did make me feel good.
There is Brandon everybody who I took a shot at
and I thought he was taking a shot. Turns out
he wasn't taking a shot.
Speaker 3 (07:46):
You took that shot back.
Speaker 1 (07:47):
He's protecting that pulled the shot back. Okay, So I
have some stuff here. I played golf yesterday with Denay Hayes.
Speaker 3 (07:56):
Oh yeah, how did that go?
Speaker 1 (07:58):
Anybody familiar? She can me. She does a bunch of
social media stuff, very funny online. So we go play.
First of all, she won a national championship playing shortstop
or second base for Alabama.
Speaker 3 (08:10):
Wow wow, I didn't know that national.
Speaker 1 (08:12):
Yeah, as a freshman and then they went back to
the College World Series. I think she was a sophomore junior.
She on the Alabama softball team. Wow. So she played
second base or freshman year, I thin when they won
the championship, and then she played shortstop for three years
after that, so like high level athletes.
Speaker 3 (08:26):
Sure, so she's good at golf.
Speaker 1 (08:28):
So we go and I go and I think, I'm
I hate this about me. And I don't really know
her that well. But she plays golf in the middle
of the day. In my schedule, if I do get
to play, it's always in the middle of the day
because I don't have to work till five. I start
earlier and end like one or something. So off Eddie
and I ever play, it's at.
Speaker 3 (08:48):
Like two, yeah, late in the day.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
So it's a weird time. And I had seen on
her Instagram and we'd met one time before, and I
was like, hey, and I was thinking about doing some
content with her cause I knew she was a ball player.
And I think I saw that she was the MVP
of that softball game, the celebrity softball game. Oh yeah,
the Folds, Yes, And she was oh, that's right. She
looked like a dog. When she was playing, she was
(09:12):
sliding in shorts making crazy. I didn't know, and I
was like, what, what's her deal? So when I found
out she played softball at Alabama and won a national championship.
So she's playing golf, I'm like, hey, we should play golf.
And I'd texting on the way over there because we're
playing in my buddies course, and I was like, hey,
I'm gonna play from the white teas, thinking I'll play
from the white teas, and then she's the girls who
(09:34):
just play from the red teas and I'll be close.
Speaker 3 (09:35):
It's nice.
Speaker 1 (09:36):
Yeah, So that way, it's not because I forget a
lot of times i'm playing with women, I just drive
past their tees, not on purpose, but I'm not used
to stopping because we don't play with a lot of women.
And so she goes, yeah, I play from the whites too,
and I'm like, oh no, oh man, dude, she's a beast.
Speaker 3 (09:51):
Really.
Speaker 1 (09:51):
Yeah, So we were we played just skins, so we were.
It was like through ten, we were even. Through thirteen,
I think we were even. She won the last three holes. Dude,
she hits it further than I do, and I hit
it further than well, you guys do. She crushes it.
So it was like whack, and my iron game was good.
I hit a wall like whole fourteen or fifty literal wall. No,
(10:14):
I was just tired of the day long day. But
she's she is an athlete, like elite athlete, and so
she didn't she didn't play for the women's tea. She
played from the dude seas Wow, and she hit it
further than me almost every time.
Speaker 4 (10:24):
Damn.
Speaker 1 (10:25):
Yeah. So good for her, Yeah, yeah, she's good for her.
Great great And so.
Speaker 3 (10:31):
Was she funny?
Speaker 1 (10:33):
I mean we were playing golf.
Speaker 3 (10:34):
And also that's the hard thing about comedians, Like you
expect me to be funny all the time, but like
they're just.
Speaker 1 (10:38):
Yeah, I think you don't have to be on Well,
she's funny, okay. But we were just kind of talking
shop a little bit. So it was we're talking content,
talk about TV show, so I did. We were just
kind of talking Yeah.
Speaker 3 (10:49):
So it's unfair to comedians because you always want them
to be funny, you know. When we saw Adam Sandler though,
he was kind of funny, like.
Speaker 1 (10:58):
On point, when Kevin Tarty a picture of them in.
Speaker 3 (11:00):
The I want going to say that.
Speaker 1 (11:03):
Thanks Eddie.
Speaker 3 (11:07):
Pictures of the airport.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
Yeah, so yeah, she's really good.
Speaker 3 (11:11):
That's cool.
Speaker 1 (11:12):
It's pretty crazy, Okay, I had a whole list of things.
So there's that, and there's that. I got my jacket. Ah.
You see, Texas State got invited the PAC twelve. The
huge especially when you come from Austin like that was southwest.
Speaker 3 (11:27):
I mean that's like south of Austin to be in
the Pacific Atlantic.
Speaker 1 (11:32):
What I'm going to that because there are schools that
were in the PAC twelve that around the AEC. I'm
not talking about that. I'm talking about that small school,
Texas State. Yeah, man is now going to be in
the PAC twelve. They're going to accept it. If they
haven't as a right now, they're about to accept it.
Wouldn't exactly. Yeah, and Texas is not that far from
the West coast when it comes to other schools, like
you're talking about California schools having a flight speaking of
(11:53):
Rutgers having a fly all the way across the country
to the Big Ten to do that. Yeah, so I
thought it was big. I thought it was crazy that
they got invited the pack.
Speaker 4 (12:00):
Mike did Mike go there? Yeah, you know, let's go.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
My school's gonna be a freaking outs go power four.
But maybe that'll be the power five again eventually, I
think is Boise State.
Speaker 4 (12:11):
Maybe gets in there. Yeah, so you know San Diego State.
Speaker 1 (12:17):
Anyway, I thought it was pretty cool. That is cool,
especially coming from Austin. Texas State also beat Texas and
baseball in the like the regionals this year of college baseball. Wow,
which was pretty wild up and coming. Okay, so we
got invited, I say we I did, But I anything
I can invite it to. I just expect you guys.
So maybe I should check with coach to make sure
you invited you guys too. But he's like, no, no,
(12:38):
not them, So I don't bring them.
Speaker 4 (12:41):
Whatever you do.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
I'm just gonna share all this stuff because I've had
it all on my list for a minute. So Brian
Anderson is he's been on the show before. He does
play by play for the Brewers. He's on NBA two
K is the voice of two K. I mean, he's
that announcer he does when he was with us. What
do we have want to talk about?
Speaker 4 (13:01):
It was a tournament, Yeah, it was the tournament. Yeah,
there's like after the first round.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
I believe because because he does everything. I don't remember
which sport we had him on for Watch Madness.
Speaker 2 (13:10):
Yeah, so.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
He hit me up and he said, hey, you should
come to Milwaukee for some Brewers because he does most
of the Brewers' home games. Yeah, And he said, do
you golf? And I was like, I golf? I said,
I never want to impose. I said, you do all
the Brewers home games he goes, Yeah, most of the
home games. He said, impose away and let's let's do
some golf and baseball. So we all got invited. I mean,
(13:35):
I guess we all didn't get invited.
Speaker 3 (13:36):
He didn't say that.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
I know.
Speaker 5 (13:38):
I know.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
His passport, that's true.
Speaker 3 (13:41):
Yeah, he leaves the state is America.
Speaker 1 (13:43):
Like, I'll never take him up on that. Maybe I should,
because he came to me to say that, but I
always felt like I'm just bothering, Like what am I
gonna do? Sit up there in the boots and watch him?
Speaker 3 (13:52):
Yeah, he just start him the whole time, Like, I
don't know, I.
Speaker 1 (13:55):
Don't know what the expectations did you get on the broadcast?
You might get still though I don't to, But so
does that mean have to sit up there for eight.
Speaker 3 (14:04):
No, they'll probably puts you somewhere else, right, And does
it also mean like I got you or does that
mean just come up and buy your own ticket.
Speaker 1 (14:13):
I think that means if I'm coming up, he got
because we're going to pick golf before the game, probably
like a night night game. I'm sure most of them are. Now,
it's not like Wriggling in the nineties stadium.
Speaker 3 (14:22):
It's cool too, it does look cool.
Speaker 4 (14:24):
Yeah, that's all with the slide, right, he goes all
the way down. Yeah, we can go on the slide because.
Speaker 1 (14:29):
We're all right, transfer the game on the slide into
another invitation. Come on, and I'll not have two more
to tell you about. And I'll probably not take up
take anybody up on these because I always feel like
I'm imposing all the time. So Lionel Richie was tweeting
or his Instagram store on the other night about all
(14:49):
of its concert dates. Have I told you as this?
And so it was all European dates and it's all
through like August, and I woke up like two in
the morning, so I was kind of out of it
and I'm just scrolling through and I saw that and
I was like, man, I love to come one of these,
thinking Lionel didn't run his own socials. But I know Lionel.
If we saw each other, we would definitely houg and
(15:11):
spend time together. Oh, Eddie was with me once and
we saw him. It was amazing, Yeah, because Lionel was
like somebody, He's like, Bobby, that's amazing. Like I probably
feel we're just going to his house and knocking on
his door, but he might maybe, And he responds back
and he was like, yes, come to a show. And
so I kind of remember that. I woke up and
he hit me. He says, which one do you want
to come to? Like Copenhagen, And I'm going, oh no,
(15:33):
Now I'm bound to go to European Lionel Richie show.
So I thought, Eddie, we could go, but you don't
have your passport.
Speaker 3 (15:39):
This is the second time I go to Milwaukee.
Speaker 1 (15:41):
It was these are the most you literally we would
go if I had somebody to go with. My wife
can't go.
Speaker 3 (15:48):
So I was still on hold on when when? When
do you think August? Because I'm doing my past in July.
Speaker 1 (15:54):
Yeah, but then it takes like three months to get
three months you get expendited costs.
Speaker 3 (15:59):
What about slipping.
Speaker 1 (16:01):
The government in Spain in August, in Spain in August, Eddie.
It just depends when you get your past, because week
you've never been out of country.
Speaker 3 (16:10):
By August, never Mexico, but that back then it was
a birth certificate. And you're good man.
Speaker 4 (16:14):
I hate to say this, but he's going to be
in Austin on October first.
Speaker 3 (16:18):
Austin, Texas.
Speaker 1 (16:20):
But that's not a show show. I don't think it's
a book tour.
Speaker 3 (16:24):
You're better, dude, better he reads his book.
Speaker 1 (16:31):
So we got about to go to European Lionel shows, Eddie.
You can't go to that one because you have a passport.
Speaker 3 (16:37):
And if you guys went without me, I'd.
Speaker 1 (16:38):
Be we wouldn't.
Speaker 4 (16:40):
We have nobody to blame about yourself.
Speaker 1 (16:42):
I got the final thing, and this one I've already
said yes to, and I can't say exactly what it
is right now. I might could, but I can say
part of what it is.
Speaker 3 (16:49):
So it's weird.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
Last year I was the MVP of the Major League
Baseball Celebrity All Star Softball Game.
Speaker 3 (16:57):
Did you play it out of your mind?
Speaker 1 (16:58):
Of my mind? I was telling today that we're playing golf.
I was like it was one of those nights where
I played way above what like my normal line is
like I'm pretty good and like I can play okay,
but I was out of my mind. Everything I was
hitting and anything hit at me, it was just gobble, gobble, gobble,
and so not Turkey like gobbling the balls up.
Speaker 3 (17:18):
Got it.
Speaker 1 (17:19):
And so the All Star Game is in Atlanta this year,
and it's in a couple of weeks, and so they
usually don't invite the same celebrities to the tournament. It's
not a tournament to the game, the celebrity game year
after year because whomever won the MVP the year before
it was actual baseball player. It was one of the
brothers that played for the Mariners, Boone, one of the
(17:41):
Boone brothers, and maybe it was either.
Speaker 3 (17:44):
Bread or he played on the Mariners.
Speaker 1 (17:46):
But cool. And then so they don't have the same
celebrities back. But I did get invited to do something else,
and you can't say what it is. I can't say
what it is. However, I don't think they have people.
Speaker 3 (18:05):
I don't think they the real home run derby.
Speaker 1 (18:08):
I don't think they have like quote unquote celebrities do that.
But here's the thing that I have to do.
Speaker 2 (18:13):
I have to.
Speaker 1 (18:14):
I have two weeks and I have to go to
the batting cages.
Speaker 3 (18:16):
Wow, And.
Speaker 1 (18:21):
I don't know if I can say anything.
Speaker 3 (18:23):
What's the date around that one All Star Wars?
Speaker 1 (18:26):
What time do we leave? Brandon? You will be going,
for sure, and your drone? I bound out last night.
Speaker 3 (18:33):
It's gonna be a problem the game.
Speaker 1 (18:37):
But I will be doing something in Atlanta All Star weekend.
It is super cool and I gotta go. I gotta
go to the baseball batting cages.
Speaker 5 (18:45):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (18:46):
My mind's spinning right now with a lot of options.
Speaker 1 (18:49):
So you can go to if you want.
Speaker 3 (18:51):
I thought that was what this is. I thought we
were all invited. I got a invited on me.
Speaker 1 (18:57):
He only invited me so far. I gotta find out.
I gotta find out what's up.
Speaker 3 (19:01):
I mean, it's it's Atlanta, but we go back.
Speaker 1 (19:02):
I don't have a passport, but it's we go down
the back same day too, even better, even better? You
have to so all that's coming.
Speaker 3 (19:08):
Up, so I don't know what.
Speaker 1 (19:09):
Let's go so you don't have to like get permissions?
Speaker 3 (19:11):
Oh yeah that's big, yes, yeah yeah, like wife and
kids and I'll drive dud, don't worry about the drive.
Speaker 1 (19:15):
We'll not do that. We'll take the plank.
Speaker 4 (19:18):
If we're going back, that's eight hours of driving.
Speaker 1 (19:22):
Yeah, if we're going back same day when we're just
going get on her plane, go right back. So yeah,
all that's coming up. That's pretty cool.
Speaker 4 (19:28):
What do we have a timeline on when we can
talk about that more?
Speaker 1 (19:31):
I asked this morning question. I have messaged Morgan number
one and I said to her, can I talk about blank?
And she said, I'll send a text see if you
can start promoting.
Speaker 3 (19:45):
Okay, all right, okay, do you need a bat? You
need a bat?
Speaker 1 (19:52):
I think the bats are going to be wolden.
Speaker 3 (19:58):
This is getting better and better.
Speaker 1 (20:00):
Are you playing in the game. Let's get wouldn't.
Speaker 3 (20:04):
They're like, we loved your celebrity. You were so good
out of his mind? Yeah, so good stuff, dude.
Speaker 1 (20:12):
Yeah, we have an interview coming up.
Speaker 3 (20:13):
I mean the jacket, the helmet, this is like your
time right now, pleathor though, wow, I wasn't gonna sell that.
Speaker 1 (20:22):
But so, do we want to go to Milwaukee? Do
we want to hit him up? So we want to
come to a game?
Speaker 2 (20:27):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (20:28):
Do we want to go on the produce sideline?
Speaker 2 (20:29):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (20:30):
We are going to ask for a Kansas helmet. Yes, blue.
Possibly we'll go to Atlanta. Yeah, there's some stuff.
Speaker 3 (20:38):
There, Copenhagen. If my passport gets here on.
Speaker 1 (20:41):
Time, fits in time. You know what, you've never been
out of the country.
Speaker 3 (20:44):
Maybe we go in August Amsterdam. Do that's my first
time out of the country.
Speaker 1 (20:48):
I've been the airport in Amsterdam.
Speaker 3 (20:49):
That doesn't count, doesn't count.
Speaker 1 (20:51):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (20:52):
Hey, even if it doesn't get here, he's gotta he's
got a show.
Speaker 1 (20:57):
September seventh, Santiago, Chile.
Speaker 3 (20:59):
Sam Bro I'm not from Chile. Mars this is weird.
Speaker 1 (21:05):
September eleventh and Buenos Airis.
Speaker 3 (21:08):
I'm not from there.
Speaker 1 (21:09):
I don't want to go there. That's more like, yeah,
that'd be more like.
Speaker 3 (21:13):
Have you seen concerts from those South American places, Like yeah,
like there's a Pearl damn concert. I think it's in Argentina.
It looks like I mean, it looks like a wave
of people just jumping out the whole show. They don't.
Speaker 1 (21:25):
I think they're just happy that like big acts because
they don't get down to South America a lot. Oh yeah, yeah,
that's why it's like, Honestly, if I go to North
Dakota and like do a show, they freak out because
they're just happy anybody's there. Like I'd be like good. Yeah,
coming up Virginia Tech head football coach Brent Prye. We
will talk to him right after this. Hey, coach, appreciate
(21:48):
the time, absolutely. Man. Got a couple of things. First,
we were just talking about the Metallica concert they were here,
and I think of Metallica now with Virginia Tech because
when you guys walk like that's really one of the
most sick entterests to the college football even just in
sports period. But then we started talking about the first
did you go to the concert when they were there?
Speaker 2 (22:08):
Yes, sir?
Speaker 1 (22:09):
Who opened that show?
Speaker 2 (22:10):
Pantera?
Speaker 1 (22:11):
Did you get a chance to watch Pantera at all
I did not? Okay, did you get there from Metallica?
And how was Metallic What kind of energy to Metallica
still bring?
Speaker 5 (22:19):
I wasn't a Metallica fan going into it. I'm a
Metallica fan coming out the other side. They really put
on a great show. You know, got a chance to
meet them, really humble guys, kind they understood the gravity
of what the show meant to so many hokey, faithful,
so all in all, I was impressed.
Speaker 1 (22:39):
Do you remember the first time you walked into the
stadium as that song was playing? Your first game as
head coach as head coach at Virginia Tech.
Speaker 2 (22:46):
You know a game that was first time it habited
was the spring game.
Speaker 5 (22:49):
I'm at the end of the tunnel and the team's
behind me. You've got one of our staffers after giving
me the countdown five four, three, two one, and then
you hit it running. You get everybody charging out behind you.
She's on like three, and the guys just push and
they start coming out. I mean, I about wiped out
my very first time running out to that. That's no joke,
(23:12):
I said, you guys, see this person up here with.
Speaker 2 (23:14):
A hand up counting down. I'm not leaving until he
tells me.
Speaker 1 (23:19):
These spring games have changed. What are you guys doing
this year? A lot of schools aren't having them at all.
Speaker 5 (23:24):
Yeah, we believe in them. I still want that for
our fans. I want it for our kids. I think
it's a good experience to be in the in the stadium.
You know, we play four quarters. It's kind of modified.
The first one is a true quarter, and then second, third,
and fourth have some modifications. But it's good for some
of our young players and our developmental guys. I think
(23:46):
the you know, our fans. It's a big weekend in Blacksburg.
There's always softball and baseball.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
And lots going on.
Speaker 5 (23:53):
So it's, uh, you know, it's something that we get
excited about around here. I'd hate to see it go away.
Speaker 1 (23:59):
So you in Nashville with coach Franklin, correct, and you
moved to Penn State with him?
Speaker 2 (24:03):
Yes, sir?
Speaker 1 (24:03):
What was he like to work under?
Speaker 2 (24:05):
Oh, he's great. Yeah, he's he's a great leader. You know.
Speaker 5 (24:08):
Obviously we had a lot of success at Vanderbilt that
they hadn't hadn't achieved prior to that. You know, we
had good staff, good people, and I loved our players there.
We had really good teams. Never the most talented, but
better teams.
Speaker 2 (24:24):
And uh, you know James and I.
Speaker 5 (24:27):
He played quarterback for my father in college and I
was a young coach and my first child. This was
at East Strausburg, little D two school in the Poconotes.
Speaker 2 (24:38):
And so we've been friends a long time.
Speaker 5 (24:39):
We came up in this business, you know, so I
was excited to jump on board with him and joined
forces at Vanderbilt and then Penn State for a bunch
of years.
Speaker 2 (24:48):
It was tough to leave, even for a head job
like Virginia Tech.
Speaker 5 (24:51):
You know, I loved working with James, and we accomplished
a lot of Penn State and Vanderbilt. In fact, when
I told him I said I'm gonna take this job
at Virginia, he said, what do you mean.
Speaker 2 (25:01):
I thought we were going to coach together forever. I'm like, James,
it's the head job at Virginia Tech. I'm not going
to turn this one down.
Speaker 1 (25:11):
I feel like I've been lucky enough to go to
a lot of cool places and see a lot of atmospheres.
I've not been to Virginia Tech. Like, so, what's cool
about Blacksburg? Well, if I came and went to a game,
what would I leave thinking and saying?
Speaker 2 (25:21):
You would say, I can't believe this place is so beautiful.
Speaker 5 (25:24):
I had no idea from you know, the the area,
the region of the country that it's in southwest Virginia
and the mountains. And then on top of that, everybody
in Blacksburg and everybody with Virginia Tech is just the
friendliest place. You know, our matra is this is this
(25:45):
is home, and that's why that's that's real. In our place,
people are very kind and generous, and it's a servant
minded place. But then the atmosphere in that stadium, you know,
we're it's it's blue collar Virginia Tech's shirts or T shirts.
Everybody stands up for the When you got an entrance
like that, he gets people pretty hype for the game.
(26:07):
So it's arguably the best entrance, but the atmosphere itself
carries through and there's been some incredible games in that
stadium and I was fortunate to be a part a
bunch of them. You know, my first run there ninety five,
six and seven is when we really were turning the
corner and we went to a Sugar Bowl in Big
Texas on New Year's Eve, followed it up with an
(26:28):
Orange Bowl trip against Nebraska and did some big things.
So it's always been special for me. It's that kind
of place. I tell our recruits and families. It's not
for everybody, but for those that identify with Virginia Tech,
it can be pretty special and you're going to leave
there loving it.
Speaker 2 (26:45):
Well.
Speaker 1 (26:46):
Can you give me a Coach Beamer story from your
first run there?
Speaker 2 (26:49):
Yeah, I tell you. He's He's one of the most
kind and.
Speaker 5 (26:54):
Considerate head coaches I've ever been around. He's just, you know,
you always wanted to make him proud.
Speaker 2 (27:02):
No matter what. I still feel that way.
Speaker 5 (27:03):
He comes into building a couple of days a week
and it's like, you know, surreal for me, I said,
at his desk he watched. I'm like, Coach, you want
to sit down, I get up, get you need to paper,
Like what can I do for you? Like, you know,
I come down the hallway here, here's all his college
Football Hall of Fame and all these accomplishments, and then
(27:24):
I walk into his office and so its maxed me
in the face every day. But uh, you know, that's
what I remember about coach. He was very smart, he
was very fair. He wanted you to treat others the
right way, you know, So cut my teeth there under
him and under Bud Foster.
Speaker 2 (27:41):
And those guys.
Speaker 5 (27:42):
So you know, it's great that we still see Coach,
you know, around town and in our in our facility.
Speaker 1 (27:49):
Kind of weird that some of the teams and you
guys will have to do it too, But Cal's like
traveling to you guys this year, that that that's a
that's a long trip for those California guys to travel
all all the way over, and you guys gotta make
some of those. Looking at your schedule next year, you're
not playing anywhere West, but you do have some of
these teams coming over, Like when a team like Cow
comes over. Do you is that advantageous to the home
(28:13):
team knowing they're completely off their clock, their circadian rhythm
is completely different.
Speaker 3 (28:17):
It can be.
Speaker 5 (28:18):
I mean, it's obviously challenging. We went to Stanford last year.
We had a tough loss down at Miami on the
last played a game, and we had to follow that
up with a trip to Stanford, and in some ways
it was refreshing to get out of town kind of
get that loss even more behind us, and we went
(28:40):
out an extra day early. Our performance staff did a
tremendous job planning a trip. We were able to spend
some time with Hokies and friends that were with the
forty nine ers. We stayed right near their facility and
found good spot to practice and honestly played very well.
(29:03):
I think again, my hat's off to our performance group
that planned the trip, and our guys felt great in
a really good place. The administration supported us traveling the
right way, you know, on the right kind of plane,
and staying as long as we needed to to give
us the best chance to win in a challenging situation
(29:23):
like that.
Speaker 1 (29:24):
Do you guys have a general manager for football?
Speaker 2 (29:27):
We do?
Speaker 1 (29:27):
And how has that been because that's a whole new relationship,
because it's a whole new position.
Speaker 2 (29:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (29:31):
So the president of our collective triumph a fellow named
Kelly Worldwide. He's really the GM right now. But we've
got a you know, a second mate named Mike Casel.
It's been my chief of staff. He was with us
at Vanderbilt, he was with us the entire time at
Penn State, a very valuable member of the crew. Those
two guys, along with a couple of a couple of
(29:54):
other associates, kind of run that thing for us. But
the biggest challenge with with the front office and contracts
and it's everybody being syncd up. You know, you've got
a vein that you're coaching staff. You're ten to fifteen
guys now at this point. You got a vein that's
your recruiting department, your communications, you're on campus visits, and
(30:18):
then you have a vein that's your front office. You know,
that's contracts and inventory, and so getting all three of
those wings synced up and on the same page and
understanding where we are with particularly recruits. You're guys on
our team. You know that takes a lot of work,
takes great communication.
Speaker 1 (30:39):
How do you guys pick captains?
Speaker 5 (30:41):
So everybody has a vote, and the coaches vote counts twice.
You know, obviously we coach our guys up on what
Catholics look like and leaders look like. There's a lot
invested there so that they're choosing guys for the right reasons.
And in the end I'll have the final say so,
but you know, everybody's input is very important to me.
Speaker 1 (31:03):
Got to win schime their coach, what kind of wind
chiming working with there?
Speaker 5 (31:06):
We got three dogs contractors in it now here, I
am second day vacation. I meant the DMV, getting a
boat registered. I picked up a couple of palm trees
at home. People sitting in beach traffic.
Speaker 1 (31:22):
Do you feel like you need to have those dead
periods or coaches need to have dead periods, otherwise they
would never take a break and eventually just fry themselves.
Speaker 2 (31:29):
Yeah, it's hard.
Speaker 5 (31:30):
Now, I'm a big believer in balance, not just for
myself or our staff, but for our team. I can't
personally be at my best and deliver my a game
if I don't get some balance in some time off
and away from them. But with today's technology, you know,
I mean, I've got zooms, I've got staff calls, I've
got recruiting needs. I mean there's guys trying to make
(31:52):
decisions right now. You know, out of the high school
ov's were coming off of, so there's a lot of
work that still has to be done. Can't shut it down.
I'll find a day maybe once a week here these
next few weeks where I just step away from the
phone and the iPad and clear my schedule. But you're
(32:13):
kind of juggling it all. It's just it doesn't stop.
But it's nice to be able to get out of
town and get away. And I love this time of
year because the coaches get a chance to take a
break and the team becomes player led. You know, your strengths,
dass involved, but everything else is the leaders on that
(32:33):
team stepping up and leading the groups.
Speaker 1 (32:36):
I have three final questions. I do want to talk
about Michah Parsons for a second. He was awesome, right, Like,
what do you even ask he just in college? He
looked awesome. He's still dominant.
Speaker 3 (32:45):
What was he like to coach?
Speaker 2 (32:46):
Well?
Speaker 5 (32:46):
I recruited Micah from ninth grade, the Lion coach and
I went down and watched him play, and he had
two and a half sacks, one for a fumble, he
blocked a punt, he blocked an extra point, and he
was the first just one down on kickoff. So we
offered him that night. He's clearly one of the most
talented guys I've ever coached in thirty five years. But
(33:08):
what separated him was he's arguably the most competitive guy
I've ever coached. When it came to, you know, competing
in one on ones or tire pools or pass rush.
Speaker 2 (33:20):
Or bowling or chess, you name it. He wanted to
win so badly.
Speaker 5 (33:26):
That's when he was at his absolute best, you know,
and his talent really came through.
Speaker 1 (33:31):
Two questions left, Do you keep notes of the motivational
things that you say so you don't repeat them?
Speaker 2 (33:37):
No, I'm pretty organic, you know.
Speaker 5 (33:40):
I try and keep a good pulse on our team
and our staff and our culture, and you know, I'm
a big quote guy and good you know messaging. We
coach mentality as hard as we coaching anything else. I
just think it's a skill set that you want to
make sure guys are maximizing, just like speed or strength
or ability.
Speaker 2 (33:58):
To catch the ball.
Speaker 5 (34:00):
So we coached all the time, and you know, team building.
We've doubled down there this offseason. Every Wednesday was devoted
to team building. We try to stay clear of anything
football other than that. But you know, I think it's
important that you understand.
Speaker 2 (34:16):
Where your team is.
Speaker 5 (34:17):
And it's not just what I think. You know, there's communication,
there's feedback. I grow the most as a coach, you know,
through the feedback through some hard conversations, and so for me,
it's organic and I want it to be genuine and
real and we're very transparent at our place both ways.
Speaker 1 (34:38):
So a final question just to do with the schedule.
You guys have a pretty favorable schedule when it comes
to where you're playing, who you're playing. And I'm not
asking a goal as far as a record, but like
generally speaking, what's the goal that you're going into the season.
What do you guys have upon the board?
Speaker 5 (34:52):
Yeah, we want to play. We want to play to
our potential. We don't feel like we did that last year,
not consistently. We played really well at times, but to
be the team that can compete, you know, for a
championship in this league and try and slide in those playoffs,
and we got to play to our potential. We're more
than talented enough to do it. And we've got the
(35:13):
investment in the sacrifice where it needs to be, you know,
as coaches and players, you know, we got to reach
our potential each week.
Speaker 1 (35:22):
Coach, really appreciate the time. One day we're gonna get
out there. When you get out to call Tech.
Speaker 3 (35:27):
I hear you. I hear you. It's close.
Speaker 2 (35:28):
Will not regret it. We will not regret it.
Speaker 1 (35:31):
I hear you. You like the color? You like the
color of gin Tech color? What is that color? I'm colorblind?
But what color would you say?
Speaker 3 (35:36):
That is?
Speaker 1 (35:36):
What color?
Speaker 2 (35:37):
Do they say that we're orange of maroon?
Speaker 1 (35:39):
That's maroon? Do you guys collect that maroon?
Speaker 3 (35:42):
It kind of looks like maroon.
Speaker 1 (35:43):
I'm color I'm colorblind, for like for sure, for sure,
I didn't know it's maroon. Maybe I like them a
little more than that. Yeah, I didn't know, coach Hope,
you have a good break. Thank you for giving us
the time. And uh do you say, go hokies? What
do you what do you guys say at the end
of interviews? Yeah, go hoky, go hokey. All right, coach good.
Speaker 3 (36:00):
See you all right.
Speaker 1 (36:07):
Thanks to Coach Pry for being on. I watched NBA
drafts mildly entertained for like six minutes. I only wanted
to see two things. Did they draft Cooper Flag at
number one? They did, obviously, And where would Ace Bailey go?
Because he was like, I don't want to play for
and he listed all the teams and he got drafted
by one of the teams he didn't want to play
(36:28):
for because he probably would have been the second or
third pick, the kid from Ruggers. He was hurt a
little bit. But Dylan Harper, which is crazy, also played
at Ruggers. But his dad, you know his dad is Yeah.
Speaker 4 (36:36):
Harper didn't known till after he got drafted.
Speaker 1 (36:38):
Yeah, when number two.
Speaker 6 (36:40):
His mom got a lot of attention too. I don't
know if he said Kevin talked about her.
Speaker 4 (36:45):
I didn't say no such thing.
Speaker 1 (36:47):
I didn't say no such thing. What was it?
Speaker 3 (36:51):
Me?
Speaker 1 (36:52):
Ton Kannepple went forward to Charlotte. Oh, and he had
all his brothers, like he's the oldest of like five brothers.
Really yeah, and they're all like big, tall, athletic white boys,
even the smallest one, and he's the oldest.
Speaker 3 (37:03):
So that means they're gonna be Yeah, they're gonna be
up there.
Speaker 1 (37:06):
And Ace Bailey went to Utah so and he hasn't
showed up yet yet. That's all the right now. Even
the press conference he didn't. I mean, he wasn't there
for the press conference.
Speaker 3 (37:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (37:13):
And uh, the Florida kid he got drafted by them too, right,
and he's there. Yeah, but their top five pick isn't there?
Speaker 1 (37:19):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (37:20):
Is that Braddy?
Speaker 1 (37:21):
Like yeah, it's entitlement sure, and when they draft him.
Because I stopped watching after that because there were no
Arkansas guys. I just wanted to see those two people,
Cooper Flag and where Ace Bailey fell to because once
the Baylor kid went at three, I was like Aaron
Rodgers action were into it. Let's see how long. But
then Bailey went at five. Yeah, I thought he'd fall
to six because he said he did not want to
play for Utah. But Utah was like yeah, shut up,
(37:45):
don't care. Well, Utah has freaking Danny Ainge as the
gu and Danny ahe d gaf. Danny Ainge is like
the greatest human athlete I think the earth has ever
seen in general. Have you ever see that he played
minor league baseball NBA, was like great All state quarterback
in high school whatever all that is. But he like
one of the greatest peer athletes ever. And he was like,
(38:07):
all right, he's Bailey came on drafting him.
Speaker 4 (38:09):
Yeah, he doesn't care. And that Celtics doc that came
out recently, he talked about when he was playing on
the Celtics and Larry Bird was getting older, he's he
told their GM trade him, get him out of here.
It's like Larry Bird like, I don't care.
Speaker 1 (38:22):
That's what Belichick did though. Yeah, he'd try to trade
him a year before they would get bad, rather than
a year after. Belichick he would try to trade Larry Bird. No, no, no,
I think you're mixing up stories here. I was making
a Kevin analogy. I got it.
Speaker 3 (38:36):
I got it.
Speaker 1 (38:36):
Yeah, Yeah, that's why I traded. That's why Brady ended
up not being kept. Yeah, because he wasn't traded. He
left as a free agent correct in one of those
suit that was crazy one. So yeah, yeah, uh, it
was mildly entertaining. And then I wanted to see where
I do. Therea went and he was drafted I think
by Brooklyn and then traded the Lakers. He's an Arkansas
guy early second round. But yeah, what's up?
Speaker 3 (38:58):
I saw the Cowboys like Michael Parsons and and Ceedee Lamb, like,
all right, flag, welcome to Dallas. Cooper's coming. Oh yeah,
pretty cool. One of they'll hang out and be friends
and stuff.
Speaker 1 (39:11):
Why not?
Speaker 3 (39:11):
No, probably not.
Speaker 1 (39:12):
Halliburton does have a torn achilles. That sucks so bad
for the fan base. It sucks for him, but it
sucks so bad for the fan base because they lost
Game seven. Let's say they lost it with Halliburton, there
was there would be so much excitement going into next year, hm,
because the whole core group would be back. Yeah, and
now he's gonna miss the whole year.
Speaker 3 (39:33):
And even when you do come back, like, I just like,
can you play one hundred percent?
Speaker 1 (39:38):
I saw a stat all these famous players they torn
achilles and came back, what their percentage was versus what
the percentage was afterward.
Speaker 3 (39:47):
And that's cool.
Speaker 1 (39:48):
It didn't look good.
Speaker 3 (39:49):
Yeah, I mean you just you just worry now because
how how easy it was when it happened, and.
Speaker 1 (39:54):
I wish I had that. I don't have it because
it's it didn't look good. What a stupid thing to say.
But there was not a single person that was as
good as before they were injured. And what sucks to Halibert,
I mean Kevin and the Celtics, like Jason Tatum prime
of his career. I mean, Clay is one of the
last people that I remember it.
Speaker 3 (40:11):
Being Durant too in that finals. Yep.
Speaker 1 (40:13):
Yeah, So that sucks for the town of Indianapolis because
they had so much to be excited about even after
a loss.
Speaker 3 (40:21):
At least they got Kitten Clark. That's what I was
gonna say. They have Kitlin Clark.
Speaker 1 (40:24):
Yeah, that's pretty awesome, but not the same, not the same,
not the same.
Speaker 3 (40:29):
They got the Colts.
Speaker 7 (40:31):
Yeah, they that's true too, but Colts not the same.
That the race is still there, not the draft, the
combine combine some stuff.
Speaker 3 (40:46):
About it though.
Speaker 6 (40:47):
Yeah, did you guys see that Yang Hansen guy that
got drafted? Like the second coming of Yao ming over here?
Speaker 1 (40:54):
Now, I was more thinking about like Indy.
Speaker 3 (40:58):
Oh is he from Indy?
Speaker 1 (41:02):
He, of course he's not. Sucks for Indy. I mean
produce like an hour above Indy. Yeah, they have coach.
Speaker 3 (41:13):
Upside.
Speaker 1 (41:13):
Yeah that sucks. Sorry, Andy, Yeah, Durantce go onto the Rockets.
So we talked about that.
Speaker 3 (41:19):
Yeah, I'll hit you with a.
Speaker 1 (41:20):
Quick list, my quick list of the most annoying fan
bases in sports. Look at the cameras. We'll get this
for a get secial clip.
Speaker 3 (41:27):
Cowboys are on there first.
Speaker 7 (41:28):
And now.
Speaker 3 (41:30):
Why do you talk over me again? Okay?
Speaker 1 (41:32):
Hold on? Did you maybe didn't talk over me? Take
two action and now the most annoying fan base is
in sports, according to me, in the leather jacket in
the summer, you have sweating a whole bit.
Speaker 3 (41:46):
You gotta leave it.
Speaker 1 (41:47):
Leave it on. At number five, Philadelphia Eagles fans amen.
Not because they win, that's cool. I kind of like
the grit of the Eagles, but because I'm scared of them.
Speaker 3 (42:01):
They're mean.
Speaker 1 (42:03):
Net's become their identity, so they do it more just
for it to remain their identity. So, Eagles fans, I
am scared of you, but enough of them will beat
you up.
Speaker 3 (42:12):
We got it, Okay.
Speaker 1 (42:14):
Number four, the Dallas Cowboys, Oh stupid, fair weather and loud.
I'd like to do two impressions of a Dallas Cowboys
fan impression and one. Two games into the season, we're
two and oh, we can win this thing. Let's go
the little Cowboys. Whoa two weeks later, God, we're two
(42:36):
and two. We suck. We're the worst. I quit watching
the game. Thank you. Those are my impressions.
Speaker 3 (42:41):
Pretty accurate.
Speaker 1 (42:41):
Yeah yeah. At number three on my list, Duke Basketball.
Bunch of rich kids who have great haircuts, and their
haircuts are always fresh, which means they spend a lot
of money on haircuts because you have to get them
all the time to remain fresh. And that's how we
know you're rich. You've always got a fresh hair cut.
You're rich. And because ESPN loves you so much, I
(43:05):
don't so. At number three, most annoying fan bases Duke
basketball and what's that.
Speaker 3 (43:10):
Thing they do? Random player? It's annoying.
Speaker 1 (43:14):
OHT mind that so much? Ye know? For me, it's
the fresh aircuts all the time.
Speaker 3 (43:18):
I don't know why.
Speaker 1 (43:19):
It's always a thing. At number two, Tennessee Volunteer Football,
Go balls worst but catch you a song In sports
you would think by the entitlement they have as a
football program that they've won the last ten national titles
in football. I just checked. Nope, not at all. No
(43:42):
national titles a long time.
Speaker 4 (43:43):
When's the last time, Kevin nineteen ninety nine.
Speaker 1 (43:46):
Yeah, it's a bad a year for me. That's t
Martin here, that's US fumbling, Arkansas fumbling. We lost that game.
That's also why I kind of probably hate them. And
because they live close, you kind of hate that number one.
Speaker 3 (44:01):
Oh, I know this one.
Speaker 1 (44:02):
I bet you don't obvious. I bet you don't.
Speaker 3 (44:11):
No star Orange.
Speaker 1 (44:14):
Oh, Texas, Well, they're not the most number.
Speaker 3 (44:17):
I'm shocked.
Speaker 4 (44:18):
Not the team he haates the most, the most annoying
fan base.
Speaker 3 (44:20):
Yes, oh, the fan base of Texas is.
Speaker 1 (44:24):
Oh. I hate the Longhorns as a team. Yeah, and Kansas.
We're taught to hate the freaking Longhorns. And they have
more money than everybody and they don't win near as
much of some of the buddies, which is crazy. If
you have more money and you have more resources, you
should be able to turn those resources into national championships,
and they don't. But this isn't a Texas hater. They
don't even make my top five most annoying. I don't
even they don't even exist in the base world. Okay, yeah,
(44:48):
I don't feel like they're that like actively annoying. No, right, no,
I hate them, but they're not annoying.
Speaker 3 (44:54):
Yeah, no, I'll never forget.
Speaker 5 (44:56):
Man.
Speaker 3 (44:56):
I was working on a Saturday morning at my news
station right by the stadium and they saw some two
Texas fans peen on my tires. Ever since then, you
guys are annoying.
Speaker 1 (45:05):
Isn't that individuals though, Well, it's more like a personally.
Speaker 4 (45:08):
Cowboys fans do that.
Speaker 1 (45:11):
Every Cowboys fan is peene on eddie. The number one
most annoying fan base in all of sports is and
by the way, they are the most entitled group in
the history of sports fans. And they show up by
the hundreds, and it's like a virus that takes over
wherever they're going into. And it's Kentucky basketball, man, And
(45:34):
let's say there are ten thousand Kentucky basketball fans. If
I were to do the math, sixteeth.
Speaker 3 (45:41):
Oh, come by carry the one. Yeah, there you go.
That's cold, dude, And we got your coach. What do
you think about that? Yeah, he's not wearing blue anymore.
Speaker 1 (45:54):
Dude, this jacket's so hot. You're sweaty jackets. You're getting you.
I'm going to freaking leather lame pleathar lame jacket, sweating
my balls off. The thing I have to say about
all five of these, though, is like you have to
respect it. They're annoying because they win.
Speaker 3 (46:13):
That's right, It's true, especially number four on your list there.
You gotta respect it.
Speaker 1 (46:17):
No, that one's a fair weather what do you mean, Yeah,
that's the only one that doesn't really.
Speaker 3 (46:20):
A full list. You gotta respect of that list.
Speaker 2 (46:23):
You winning.
Speaker 1 (46:26):
I think the Cowboys got annoying because of the winning
they did in the nineties. They just can't let it go.
Speaker 3 (46:29):
Yeah, we're still hoping that happens again.
Speaker 1 (46:32):
That's my list most annoying fan bases in sports. Thank
you everybody. All right, we're done. You know what, guys,
I hope you have a good, good weekend.
Speaker 3 (46:42):
Thank you. Man.
Speaker 1 (46:43):
Usually don't hope that for you guys, but you actually
never know. I know, I hope you do.
Speaker 3 (46:47):
You're trying to jinx our weekend.
Speaker 1 (46:49):
Let me think about this for a second. Eddie's a
Cowboys fan. Yes, that affects me. Brandon's a Cowboys fan.
That affects me. Kevin's a Tennessee fan. That's stupid, like
a Texas fan. But that fan. Mike's nice though.
Speaker 3 (47:01):
Mike's Cowboys fan too. Yeah, yes, yes, yes, I.
Speaker 4 (47:05):
Don't put mic and sme categories at you though.
Speaker 3 (47:08):
Humans.
Speaker 1 (47:08):
Oh, I don't give up like Eddie does. Eddie gives
up every game, every game they lose.
Speaker 3 (47:14):
When you're starting, quarterback goes down. Yeah, you start giving up.
Speaker 4 (47:17):
He stops watching games when they're losing.
Speaker 3 (47:19):
That's not true. I've never done that.
Speaker 1 (47:21):
It just goes to soccer. He didn't watch football anymore.
He watches football. He's like, I'm out of here, horses. Yes,
I do that. Thank you.
Speaker 3 (47:28):
Everybody.
Speaker 1 (47:29):
Have a great weekend. And most of you, guys, hope
you have a good weekend. Two still considering eighty percent
of you, hope you have a great weekend. All right.
