Speaker 1 (00:04):
All right, alright, you come and throw your live from Philly.
It's the number one rated Polly and Tony Fools Go show.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
Yo.
Speaker 1 (00:14):
As always, Polly Fools go here with Doty Fools going
Dody Cube show.
Speaker 3 (00:21):
Let's go. People.
Speaker 1 (00:22):
They always come up to us this time of year
and they say, isn't this time of year.
Speaker 3 (00:26):
Slow for you?
Speaker 1 (00:28):
And I always say to them, I say, what the
fuck are you talking about?
Speaker 3 (00:32):
This tone's going on? Exactly.
Speaker 1 (00:34):
It seems like this time of year is slow for you. Yeah,
this is why we host the show. And you're sitting
there doing nothing, just listening to us. So go look inside, Jamira,
Yeah exactly, and when you do that, you'll see there's
a tone going on. You know.
Speaker 3 (00:49):
We got the.
Speaker 1 (00:50):
Owners meetings, you know, well, comments from owners exactly, comments
from gms and owners together. You know, a lot a
lot happening there. We're gonna play all down.
Speaker 3 (01:00):
For you, so just sit tight. We're gonna get to
all of it, yep.
Speaker 1 (01:03):
And also we're gonna go live via satellite to Palm Beach, Florida,
home of the Breakers Hotel where the owners meetings are
currently taking place, to give you all the latest those
straight from an inside source, So you're gonna want to
watch that then. Well, in the meantime, so much to
get to Tony despite what all you idiots out there,
(01:26):
Thank God. So let's get right into it with our
top story story. All right, first out the gate right
now down in Bomb Beach. It's the NFL owners meeting,
whereas you know, the owners and commissioner, they get together
every year to discuss ways to stop the Eagles. Well,
the other day Roger Goodell this fool. He was talking
(01:47):
about the tush push and he said that he wants
to go ahead and ban all plays that involved players
pushing and pulling one another.
Speaker 3 (01:57):
Ridiculous, Tony.
Speaker 1 (01:59):
This is just more of a PC both COVID and
dimand culture where people want to regulate where men can
and cannot put bare hands. And it's just totally ridiculous,
isn't it. You know, this is a very slippery slope.
What's next? Is the NFL gonna ban touching of any sort? Well,
the offensive lineman have to ask for consent from the
(02:21):
defensive lineman, like may I push you please? You know
what you're gonna have, Dony, these teams they're gonna have
an offensive coordinator, a defensive coordinator. I need intimacy coordinator
exactly to make sure there's no touching.
Speaker 3 (02:35):
It's gonna be ridiculous.
Speaker 4 (02:37):
Exactly what's gonna happen when the players do touch another player?
Instead of personal violations, are we gonna have personal space violations?
You know, fifteen yards for making a quarterback feel uncomfortable
in the pocket.
Speaker 1 (02:51):
Yeah, great point that, Donty. And you know you got
Sean McVay. He comes out. He says the push push
is not a part of football and that it's a
problem for the game. No, the problem is with you,
isn't that right?
Speaker 4 (03:04):
Yeah, we're confident in now masculinity, and we are totally
comfortable watching one grown man thrust his massive hands into
the soft buttocks of another grown man. If you have
a problem with that, then that says more about you. Frankly,
It's time we end in tolerance in the NFL. I mean,
look at which teams are complaining here, the Rams and
(03:27):
the packers. I mean, isn't that like the pot calling
the kettle a pot?
Speaker 1 (03:33):
Just such a great point that Dony and so well said,
and you know, so much more to get to here.
In fact, the shocking turn of events Brown's owner Jimmy Haslam,
he came out and admitted that the trade for the
Sean Watson was a total mistake, calling it a swing
and a miss.
Speaker 3 (03:50):
And you know, Donny, I mean.
Speaker 1 (03:52):
People they spend a lot of time bashing the Browns,
and for good reason, because they're a horrible some of
the organization. Yeah, but you know, this is not something
in my personal view that anybody could have seemed coming, right.
Speaker 4 (04:04):
No, not at all. You know, I got to say
I didn't see this coming either.
Speaker 3 (04:08):
No.
Speaker 4 (04:09):
You know, sure there was the first sexual accusation and
then you know the nine that came after that, and
you know the thirteen or so that came after that,
and you know, but then again, he did have a
really solid average yachts for completion in Houston, So you know,
Yin and.
Speaker 1 (04:26):
Yang exactly, Dody. You know, I said this way back.
You remember when the Patriots crafted Aaron Hernandez. Yeah, of course,
you know, sure there were the murmurs about the assaults,
you know, battering, you know, attempted kidnapping. He's you know,
first degree murder, yeah, drug dealing, gang banging, both senses
of the word, you know, but you know, his his
(04:48):
third down completion reception rate was so high.
Speaker 3 (04:52):
So again you know Yin and Yang exactly Yin and Yang.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
Now to another stunning owner comment don this one from
forty nine er Z owner Jed York, who came out
and admitted the reason so many star players have been
leaving San Francisco this offseason is because they know the
team is going to give Rock Purty a bigger contract,
which means less money for the rest of the team.
And you know, this is a lot of people wondering
(05:18):
whether the forty nine Ers window super Bowl window is
open or closed?
Speaker 3 (05:23):
And well, yeah, you.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
Know how we're always coming up with creative segments of
the show's what we do?
Speaker 2 (05:29):
Know it.
Speaker 1 (05:30):
You know the Emmy Committee knows it. Everybody always congratulating us.
How did you come up with that? Well, we're gonna
do it against people. You see, We're going to do
a segment right now called super Bowl Window. And what
I'm gonna do follow along is I'm going to name
this team to Tony and he's gonna tell me whether
their super Bowl window is open meaning they have a
(05:52):
chance to win the Super Bowl, or closed meaning they
don't have a chance.
Speaker 3 (05:57):
See, if you're following along their road. Right here we go.
So now it's time for Super Bowl window. Super Bowl window?
Speaker 1 (06:07):
Okay, Donny, Well, based on the recent news about the
forty nine ers, is their super Bowl window open again
meaning they have a chance? Right closed meaning they have
no chance?
Speaker 4 (06:19):
Well right now, if you take into account everything, the
forty nine ers windows like one of those old smallish
you know windows that you see in bathrooms, like right
by the toilet, you know, not like a full window,
but a tiny one, and well it's like kind of open,
but also not like as in somebody's in the bathroom
and they just took a shit and you know, want
(06:40):
to ventilate the room so it doesn't smell horrible where
it's like stinking up the whole house. But you know,
also where the crack isn't big enough so that like
a Robba, somebody could be looking in like to them,
it would still look basically closed, and maybe the blinds
is still also down.
Speaker 3 (06:58):
So it makes it am like.
Speaker 2 (07:00):
That it's doing the segment all wrong.
Speaker 3 (07:02):
Oh you're just totally interrupted. What are you doing? What
are you doing?
Speaker 2 (07:06):
It's not supposed to be about windows. That's just a metaphor.
You're supposed to talk about the team and then just
say open or closed at the end.
Speaker 1 (07:17):
Oh, well, you know what's going to be open your
stomach after I stab you?
Speaker 3 (07:23):
Yeah, your dead body is going to be on the
meta floor.
Speaker 1 (07:27):
There you go, exactly shut up. The finally good segment
was I was so into that Bony and me. Can
you bring back the music?
Speaker 3 (07:36):
Just do that?
Speaker 1 (07:37):
And while we're talking, windows go jump out of one. Yeah, alright,
let's get to a big brew haha. In basketball, let's
move on. You know, a lot of people they've been
talking about the ongoing war of words between Lebron James
and steven A Smith after steven A came out took
shots at Lebron for being a bad parent and forcing
his son BRONI right now, a lot of people they're saying,
(08:00):
steven A, you know, went too far across the line.
But Dody, I don't get what the hell that talking
about here?
Speaker 3 (08:06):
Do you know?
Speaker 4 (08:07):
Doesn't anyone seem to realize that steven A was actually
helping Lebron by questioning his choices as a parent. I mean,
hasn't anybody ever heard of the Menendez brothers? Their parents
forced him to do a lot of things they didn't
want to do, and then they wound up killing their parents.
From where I'm sitting, I think Lebron should be thanking
(08:28):
steven A. He was clearly trying to protect Lebron from
getting murdered by Bronni. I mean, if Bronni's career goes
off the rails, then who knows he might shoot his dad.
I mean he wouldn't hit him because his accuracy is terrible.
Speaker 3 (08:43):
But still, you.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
Know, just such great historical perspective that Dony and you
know why we talk in history, Well, you know where
I'm going with this. In the early nineties, you remember
Ken Griffy Jr. He was coming up with the Mariners,
and what did I say to you? I said, oh,
there's a good chance, yep, that Ken Griffy Senior is
going to wind up getting shot by JN. Griffy Junior.
(09:05):
But luckily Junior, you know, it turned out to be good.
Luckily crisis severted. Yeah, but it was close. It was
very close there for a moment.
Speaker 2 (09:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
Yeah, staying in baseball Tony is what we call us
segue as exactly professional.
Speaker 3 (09:18):
Yeah. You know, people always ask us for advice, how
we do what we do?
Speaker 1 (09:21):
We say, hey, you see what you do is you
talk about one sport, and then why you're talking about
that sport you keep talking.
Speaker 4 (09:28):
About exactly you transition into the other exactly.
Speaker 1 (09:33):
You see how the smooth this is. It's just it's
so smooth. It just makes the show just seem to
work so much faster.
Speaker 3 (09:40):
Keep moving, absolutely.
Speaker 1 (09:42):
You know these you know these other shows they go football,
basketball is exactly.
Speaker 3 (09:48):
I'm like, where's the flow?
Speaker 1 (09:50):
Exactly like a river anyway, all right here, So now
as we flow, we keep going. We're going to talk
about these torpedo bats, you know, which are clearly lead
directly to more home runs, specifically for the Yankees, which
makes it even more problematical. You know, Tony, like most
people out there, I'm trying to understand how these bats
are given hit as you know, such an advantage. And
(10:11):
well you actually took the dime and looked into this
and tell the people what you found.
Speaker 4 (10:16):
Yeah, I did some research into how these torpedo bats work,
and frankly, the science behind them is truly amazing, I
gotta say.
Speaker 1 (10:24):
So.
Speaker 4 (10:24):
You know, the middle of the bat is thicker than normal.
You see, that's because it's filled with steroids. And you
see when a hitter holds the bat upright, the steroids
drip down a PBC tube and into the player's fingers,
essentially torpedoing the steroids into the bloodstream. You see, Previously
players would only be able to take steroids before and
(10:47):
after the game, but now these bats allow the players
to take steroids during the game.
Speaker 1 (10:55):
Just incredible and frankly eye opening scientific research that And
oh well it's time we got to get a quick
ad in uh kind of an ad, right, Tony. You know,
see last week on the show, as you know, we
had CEO of Fanatics Events, Lance Fence to men, you know,
the fanatics. They're hosting this so called Fanatics Fest at
(11:16):
the Javit Center in New York and June, where you
can meet athletes, get autographs, seek collectibles, YadA, YadA.
Speaker 3 (11:22):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
Anyway, this Lance clown he emailed us this week because
he wanted to let us know they've added so called
more big names to their roster. Listen to these names, Tony,
Emmett Smith overrated exactly. Dwight Howard, I mean we met
him fifty times, fifty times already, big deal exactly. Brian Dawkins,
I'm Facebook friends with you to say, big deal, all right,
(11:46):
big deal. Well, clearly this fencermen guy he wants to
show off, you know, like whatever, Yeah, well you want
you want to see showing off, Tony? I mean, you know,
not to be outdone at all. We got some announcements
of our own about the upcoming FOSCO watch that's right
still taking place right across the street at a TPV
location June twentieth to the twenty second, just right across
(12:08):
from Fanatics. Even better, look at this lineup we got.

these people about the media, this is what happens.
Speaker 3 (16:20):
Yeah, they just they get paid by the NFL.
Speaker 1 (16:23):

Torpedo bats and Jec's steroids directly into batter's bloodstreams.
Speaker 3 (17:12):
Yeah, bro, science bro, No, that's not how the bats work.
Speaker 2 (17:18):
They're called torpedo bats because the barrel is shaped like
a torpedo.
Speaker 1 (17:23):
Oh yeah, well after the show, you're going to see
the barrel of my rifle.

Yeah, terrible? Check the stats, bro.
Speaker 2 (17:44):
He's the all time leading rusher in NFL history, both
in terms of yards and touchdowns, so he literally can't
be overrated.

kettle black. It's one of the most common idioms ever. Y.

You want to see an idiom, look in the mirror.
Speaker 4 (18:31):

Speaker 3 (00:26):
Slow for you?
Speaker 1 (00:28):
And I always say to them, I say, what the
fuck are you talking about?
Speaker 3 (00:32):

Owners meetings, you know, well, comments from owners exactly, comments
from gms and owners together. You know, a lot a
lot happening there. We're gonna play all down.
Speaker 3 (01:00):
For you, so just sit tight. We're gonna get to
all of it, yep.
Speaker 1 (01:03):
And also we're gonna go live via satellite to Palm Beach, Florida,
home of the Breakers Hotel where the owners meetings are
currently taking place, to give you all the latest those
straight from an inside source, So you're gonna want to
watch that then. Well, in the meantime, so much to
get to Tony despite what all you idiots out there,
(01:26):
Thank God. So let's get right into it with our
top story story. All right, first out the gate right
now down in Bomb Beach. It's the NFL owners meeting,
whereas you know, the owners and commissioner, they get together
every year to discuss ways to stop the Eagles. Well,
the other day Roger Goodell this fool. He was talking
(01:47):
about the tush push and he said that he wants
to go ahead and ban all plays that involved players
pushing and pulling one another.
Speaker 3 (01:57):
Ridiculous, Tony.
Speaker 1 (01:59):
This is just more of a PC both COVID and
dimand culture where people want to regulate where men can
and cannot put bare hands. And it's just totally ridiculous,
isn't it. You know, this is a very slippery slope.
What's next? Is the NFL gonna ban touching of any sort? Well,
the offensive lineman have to ask for consent from the
(02:21):
defensive lineman, like may I push you please? You know
what you're gonna have, Dony, these teams they're gonna have
an offensive coordinator, a defensive coordinator. I need intimacy coordinator
exactly to make sure there's no touching.
Speaker 3 (02:35):
It's gonna be ridiculous.
Speaker 4 (02:37):
Exactly what's gonna happen when the players do touch another player?
Instead of personal violations, are we gonna have personal space violations?
You know, fifteen yards for making a quarterback feel uncomfortable
in the pocket.
Speaker 1 (02:51):
Yeah, great point that, Donty. And you know you got
Sean McVay. He comes out. He says the push push
is not a part of football and that it's a
problem for the game. No, the problem is with you,
isn't that right?
Speaker 4 (03:04):
Yeah, we're confident in now masculinity, and we are totally
comfortable watching one grown man thrust his massive hands into
the soft buttocks of another grown man. If you have
a problem with that, then that says more about you. Frankly,
It's time we end in tolerance in the NFL. I mean,
look at which teams are complaining here, the Rams and
(03:27):
the packers. I mean, isn't that like the pot calling
the kettle a pot?
Speaker 1 (03:33):
Just such a great point that Dony and so well said,
and you know, so much more to get to here.
In fact, the shocking turn of events Brown's owner Jimmy Haslam,
he came out and admitted that the trade for the
Sean Watson was a total mistake, calling it a swing
and a miss.
Speaker 3 (03:50):
And you know, Donny, I mean.
Speaker 1 (03:52):
People they spend a lot of time bashing the Browns,
and for good reason, because they're a horrible some of
the organization. Yeah, but you know, this is not something
in my personal view that anybody could have seemed coming, right.
Speaker 4 (04:04):
No, not at all. You know, I got to say
I didn't see this coming either.
Speaker 3 (04:08):
No.
Speaker 4 (04:09):
You know, sure there was the first sexual accusation and
then you know the nine that came after that, and
you know the thirteen or so that came after that,
and you know, but then again, he did have a
really solid average yachts for completion in Houston, So you know,
Yin and.
Speaker 1 (04:26):
Yang exactly, Dody. You know, I said this way back.
You remember when the Patriots crafted Aaron Hernandez. Yeah, of course,
you know, sure there were the murmurs about the assaults,
you know, battering, you know, attempted kidnapping. He's you know,
first degree murder, yeah, drug dealing, gang banging, both senses
of the word, you know, but you know, his his
(04:48):
third down completion reception rate was so high.
Speaker 3 (04:52):
So again you know Yin and Yang exactly Yin and Yang.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
Now to another stunning owner comment don this one from
forty nine er Z owner Jed York, who came out
and admitted the reason so many star players have been
leaving San Francisco this offseason is because they know the
team is going to give Rock Purty a bigger contract,
which means less money for the rest of the team.
And you know, this is a lot of people wondering
(05:18):
whether the forty nine Ers window super Bowl window is
open or closed?
Speaker 3 (05:23):
And well, yeah, you.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
Know how we're always coming up with creative segments of
the show's what we do?
Speaker 2 (05:29):
Know it.
Speaker 1 (05:30):
You know the Emmy Committee knows it. Everybody always congratulating us.
How did you come up with that? Well, we're gonna
do it against people. You see, We're going to do
a segment right now called super Bowl Window. And what
I'm gonna do follow along is I'm going to name
this team to Tony and he's gonna tell me whether
their super Bowl window is open meaning they have a
(05:52):
chance to win the Super Bowl, or closed meaning they
don't have a chance.
Speaker 3 (05:57):
See, if you're following along their road. Right here we go.
So now it's time for Super Bowl window. Super Bowl window?
Speaker 1 (06:07):
Okay, Donny, Well, based on the recent news about the
forty nine ers, is their super Bowl window open again
meaning they have a chance? Right closed meaning they have
no chance?
Speaker 4 (06:19):
Well right now, if you take into account everything, the
forty nine ers windows like one of those old smallish
you know windows that you see in bathrooms, like right
by the toilet, you know, not like a full window,
but a tiny one, and well it's like kind of open,
but also not like as in somebody's in the bathroom
and they just took a shit and you know, want
(06:40):
to ventilate the room so it doesn't smell horrible where
it's like stinking up the whole house. But you know,
also where the crack isn't big enough so that like
a Robba, somebody could be looking in like to them,
it would still look basically closed, and maybe the blinds
is still also down.
Speaker 3 (06:58):
So it makes it am like.
Speaker 2 (07:00):
That it's doing the segment all wrong.
Speaker 3 (07:02):
Oh you're just totally interrupted. What are you doing? What
are you doing?
Speaker 2 (07:06):
It's not supposed to be about windows. That's just a metaphor.
You're supposed to talk about the team and then just
say open or closed at the end.
Speaker 1 (07:17):
Oh, well, you know what's going to be open your
stomach after I stab you?
Speaker 3 (07:23):
Yeah, your dead body is going to be on the
meta floor.
Speaker 1 (07:27):
There you go, exactly shut up. The finally good segment
was I was so into that Bony and me. Can
you bring back the music?
Speaker 3 (07:36):
Just do that?
Speaker 1 (07:37):
And while we're talking, windows go jump out of one. Yeah, alright,
let's get to a big brew haha. In basketball, let's
move on. You know, a lot of people they've been
talking about the ongoing war of words between Lebron James
and steven A Smith after steven A came out took
shots at Lebron for being a bad parent and forcing
his son BRONI right now, a lot of people they're saying,
(08:00):
steven A, you know, went too far across the line.
But Dody, I don't get what the hell that talking
about here?
Speaker 3 (08:06):
Do you know?
Speaker 4 (08:07):
Doesn't anyone seem to realize that steven A was actually
helping Lebron by questioning his choices as a parent. I mean,
hasn't anybody ever heard of the Menendez brothers? Their parents
forced him to do a lot of things they didn't
want to do, and then they wound up killing their parents.
From where I'm sitting, I think Lebron should be thanking
(08:28):
steven A. He was clearly trying to protect Lebron from
getting murdered by Bronni. I mean, if Bronni's career goes
off the rails, then who knows he might shoot his dad.
I mean he wouldn't hit him because his accuracy is terrible.
Speaker 3 (08:43):
But still, you.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
Know, just such great historical perspective that Dony and you
know why we talk in history, Well, you know where
I'm going with this. In the early nineties, you remember
Ken Griffy Jr. He was coming up with the Mariners,
and what did I say to you? I said, oh,
there's a good chance, yep, that Ken Griffy Senior is
going to wind up getting shot by JN. Griffy Junior.
(09:05):
But luckily Junior, you know, it turned out to be good.
Luckily crisis severted. Yeah, but it was close. It was
very close there for a moment.
Speaker 2 (09:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
Yeah, staying in baseball Tony is what we call us
segue as exactly professional.
Speaker 3 (09:18):
Yeah. You know, people always ask us for advice, how
we do what we do?
Speaker 1 (09:21):
We say, hey, you see what you do is you
talk about one sport, and then why you're talking about
that sport you keep talking.
Speaker 4 (09:28):
About exactly you transition into the other exactly.
Speaker 1 (09:33):
You see how the smooth this is. It's just it's
so smooth. It just makes the show just seem to
work so much faster.
Speaker 3 (09:40):
Keep moving, absolutely.
Speaker 1 (09:42):
You know these you know these other shows they go football,
basketball is exactly.
Speaker 3 (09:48):
I'm like, where's the flow?
Speaker 1 (09:50):
Exactly like a river anyway, all right here, So now
as we flow, we keep going. We're going to talk
about these torpedo bats, you know, which are clearly lead
directly to more home runs, specifically for the Yankees, which
makes it even more problematical. You know, Tony, like most
people out there, I'm trying to understand how these bats
are given hit as you know, such an advantage. And
(10:11):
well you actually took the dime and looked into this
and tell the people what you found.
Speaker 4 (10:16):
Yeah, I did some research into how these torpedo bats work,
and frankly, the science behind them is truly amazing, I
gotta say.
Speaker 1 (10:24):
So.
Speaker 4 (10:24):
You know, the middle of the bat is thicker than normal.
You see, that's because it's filled with steroids. And you
see when a hitter holds the bat upright, the steroids
drip down a PBC tube and into the player's fingers,
essentially torpedoing the steroids into the bloodstream. You see, Previously
players would only be able to take steroids before and
(10:47):
after the game, but now these bats allow the players
to take steroids during the game.
Speaker 1 (10:55):
Just incredible and frankly eye opening scientific research that And
oh well it's time we got to get a quick
ad in uh kind of an ad, right, Tony. You know,
see last week on the show, as you know, we
had CEO of Fanatics Events, Lance Fence to men, you know,
the fanatics. They're hosting this so called Fanatics Fest at
(11:16):
the Javit Center in New York and June, where you
can meet athletes, get autographs, seek collectibles, YadA, YadA.
Speaker 3 (11:22):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
Anyway, this Lance clown he emailed us this week because
he wanted to let us know they've added so called
more big names to their roster. Listen to these names, Tony,
Emmett Smith overrated exactly. Dwight Howard, I mean we met
him fifty times, fifty times already, big deal exactly. Brian Dawkins,
I'm Facebook friends with you to say, big deal, all right,
(11:46):
big deal. Well, clearly this fencermen guy he wants to
show off, you know, like whatever, Yeah, well you want
you want to see showing off, Tony? I mean, you know,
not to be outdone at all. We got some announcements
of our own about the upcoming FOSCO watch that's right
still taking place right across the street at a TPV
location June twentieth to the twenty second, just right across
(12:08):
from Fanatics. Even better, look at this lineup we got.
Remember Hakeem Elijah On, We've got his former dietition.
Speaker 3 (12:16):
Ya.
Speaker 5 (12:16):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
Remember Dan Marino leg You'll get to meet his college
roommate's nephew.
Speaker 3 (12:23):
What do you want to see? Collectibles? People? You know
they say they got collectibles or what do they have?
Speaker 1 (12:28):
Baseball cards? Basketball cards? No, no, we got we got
what everyone wants, boxing cards. And not just a boxer,
that's right, famed boxing announcer Al Burns.
Speaker 3 (12:41):
This god is so rare. I don't know anyone who
has or even wants one on one. That's gotta be
one on one, must be worth millions.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
And this will boosts on display for you to look
at in person.
Speaker 3 (12:53):
And I just want to show you on the fact, Dony,
how great this god is?
Speaker 1 (12:57):
It said al Bernstein had a small part in the
movie Rocky five, had released his own album al Bernstein

these people about the media, this is what happens.
Speaker 3 (16:20):
Yeah, they just they get paid by the NFL.
Speaker 1 (16:23):

Torpedo bats and Jec's steroids directly into batter's bloodstreams.
Speaker 3 (17:12):
Yeah, bro, science bro, No, that's not how the bats work.
Speaker 2 (17:18):
They're called torpedo bats because the barrel is shaped like
a torpedo.

He's the all time leading rusher in NFL history, both
in terms of yards and touchdowns, so he literally can't
be overrated.
