Speaker 1 (00:03):
You do my shot to do what?
Speaker 2 (00:23):
Welcome to the Divide with Mike and Corey too, diehard
baseball fans who don't agree on anything. Which side will
you choose? This is the divide.
Speaker 1 (00:33):
Welcome to the divide with Mike and Corey.
Speaker 3 (00:38):
Hopefully our disagreements one day bring us all together.
Speaker 1 (00:42):
So stupid, so so corny, and I hope our disagreements
bring us together here. Yeah, I do.
Speaker 3 (00:58):
Conversation. This is the divide.
Speaker 1 (01:03):
Seymour Wiener is dead. I know he's not. Don't swear
to God. No, oh no. Welcome to Divide live on
Fox Sports. The Gambler one of two four one. I
hate it. Two weeks in a row to give you
bad news. Buddy, first the pope, but beloved met fan
(01:25):
hero hero World War Two veteran. Uh the gimmick almost
last year, all the memes. Seymour Wiener was his actual name,
died Tuesday at the age of ninety eight, and the
Mets actually they paid tribute to him. Uh was it
(01:45):
today's game? I think it was today's game they paid
tribute to him or Wednesday's game, I guess I should say.
Speaker 3 (01:51):
But yeah, man, Mike Condolens is man that you know,
a hero, legend forever.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
We literally had our first dollar dog night in honor
of him.
Speaker 3 (02:01):
He throughout the first pitch, you know, the game one
of a season, that one from oh my god, oh
and whatever and to oh my god. So like it.
Speaker 1 (02:13):
You know that.
Speaker 3 (02:14):
That's things that I wasn't expecting.
Speaker 1 (02:16):
Me literally, I mean, well, the good thing is he's
a more you know, more mortalized. I used that word right,
uh in more in mortal more. We'll get we'll get
someone here to correct that. Samson. I I was way off.
He's on your all of your advertisements for one dollar
hot dogs, which was Wednesday night. I guess when they
(02:36):
honored him. So he's it's it's it's uh, it's funny.
He's got a picture of just him sitting there holding
up a hot dog.
Speaker 3 (02:44):
That's Seymour. That's I'll never forget Seymour.
Speaker 1 (02:48):
Never forget Seymour. Wier Uh Matt's first the twenty wins
or you care at all about that? Tell me you
care about it. I love that. That's my thing. Now
I'm gonna look for thirty.
Speaker 3 (02:59):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (02:59):
That so the milestone, not specifically twenty twenty one, twenty two,
you know, like uh, like I look at that stuff
like first to double digits, first to twenty. Now I'll
look at thirty and then I'll go to fifty after
that and then really care.
Speaker 3 (03:18):
Yeah, just milestones. Let you know, like, hey, you're forty
more wins with X amount to go, like, so use it.
Speaker 1 (03:25):
More of like a ticking. Yeah, okay, you're trying to
do postseason math already. That's what you're not You are
you setting probabilities?
Speaker 3 (03:32):
Is that why looking at a lead? Looking at what
are you playing? Above average? Blow average?
Speaker 1 (03:38):
How many teams beat you to twenty? Okay? That like
it's just.
Speaker 3 (03:42):
Something I do. I don't know everybody else is in
the run differentials, I'm until.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
I personally I'm in the spin rate. Yeah, that's just
my thing. It's going back. That's just my buggaboo.
Speaker 3 (03:51):
You know what, thanks to the torpedo bat No.
Speaker 1 (03:55):
I mean, like, look, I guess it's it was just
wildly celebrated. It is, you know, something a little notch
on the belt, something to tip your hat to. You
did it before the Dodgers, which is always good to see.
I tell you, man, the the NL West early it's
just it's insane with the Dodgers, the Padres and and
uh and the Giants. I mean, I know again, guys,
(04:17):
I know it's early. So unless you're the Marlins or
the Nationals, you're fine, you know what I mean, you
have plenty of.
Speaker 3 (04:24):
Time coming back.
Speaker 1 (04:26):
They are creeping slowly. And I feel like they did
this two years ago too. Yeah, I think it was
two years. I always get my years. It's just.
Speaker 3 (04:37):
I mean, they're never dead, you know, it's not at all.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
But look, everybody's everybody's doing great. Everybody gets a trophy. Okay, Uh,
that's just how we're gonna do it from here on out.
Speaker 3 (04:49):
You know who doesn't get a trophy? Who not in
this house?
Speaker 1 (04:52):
At least?
Speaker 3 (04:54):
Jason Worth? Oh no, he said, Oh my god, dude,
he's said that. Uh, you know, any pretty much the
Mets are a joke, and anybody who roots for him
or is a joke, Like why would you root for
that team when you have the Yankees?
Speaker 1 (05:10):
What's the basis of the yard? I don't understand.
Speaker 3 (05:12):
I don't know, man, Like, I don't know if it's
not a dumb man, he is a dumb man. He's
a captain, like he's worthless, honestly, Like yeah, you had
congrats who won a World Series you you know, helped
your team.
Speaker 1 (05:23):
Then you left him for money. So that's facts.
Speaker 3 (05:25):
I want to talk about that whatever, Like I'm still
you went to a division rival, you know, you're you're
a clown. Like honestly, like he's like a wannabe version
of Edge.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
You ever see that? So like he looks just like
the Wish version of Edge the pro.
Speaker 3 (05:43):
Never mind, I'm not going to say that he.
Speaker 1 (05:45):
So is his hatred for the Mets just from playing
down or.
Speaker 3 (05:51):
Yeah, he says from Philly to Washington he had to
face that fan base ten years in around it was
a half truth. But yeah, he came out us out
of nowhere for no reason and it wasn't He didn't
come after the franchise. He didn't come after the facility,
came after the fans, which I thought was kind of funny.
You know, like that just goes to show we made
(06:13):
him as uncomfortable as possible anytime he came to the Queens,
regardless if he was in Washington or Philly, because like
in Washington, like I.
Speaker 1 (06:20):
Didn't really think about him.
Speaker 3 (06:22):
I didn't, you know.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
Who's why is anybody even talking? Does he does he
have something a horse Derby does. Yes, he's got a
horse Derby which just tomorrow, which is Saturday.
Speaker 3 (06:34):
Yeah, but he's still doing his rounds talking baseball. Nobody
wants to talk about him and his horse. Maybe Mike Frncessa,
Oh no, he doesn't. He doesn't even care. He's a
big horse guy, like he's into horses.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
Of course he got to roll up a newspaper and
smack his button.
Speaker 3 (06:50):
Yeah before dude, I was stewing. I can't wait to
talk to chef about it, you know. Mikey hughes quickly. Uh, actually,
I'll play right now.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
Play It's just play it. Yeah, ripping Met fans, personally
ripping Met fans. No respect for some New Yorkers, Jason
Worth says, And guys, this is this is eight years
after he's put on a uniform. Like it's not like
he just retired yesterday. Like why do we still have
all this hatred for that? I mean, I guess the
(07:20):
rival's arrival. You kind of like to see it in
your player, like you kind of want like your player
to hate, you know, at least you wanted to hate
playing somewhere, But like it's it's with baseball typically it's
all love. Like these guys show, you know, they have
respect for one another. They're all, you know, professionals, professionals.
Speaker 3 (07:36):
No respect for people who pick the mat So I
have zero respect for you. And then Mikey Hughes put
a montage of like different batters getting hit Worth getting
hit by the Mets and then struck out like by
the entire freaking league. It's just amazing. But yeah, he
(07:57):
he has zero respect for anybody who picks the Met.
I have zero respect for you, my man. Like I said,
you know, you went over to Washington. He left your
team for a team internally for more money. I'm sure
phil Philadelphia if you would have stuck around, I mean, yeah,
sure the immortalized a Wiener if they they had to.
But but I'm glad Jason Worth didn't play for the
(08:21):
New York Mens. I wouldn't want him, you know how,
Like some players you're like, man, I wish he played
for me.
Speaker 1 (08:26):
Like Bryce Harper's a Met.
Speaker 3 (08:28):
I'm wearing his jersey right right, Like there's you know,
Mike Trout, same thing, like.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
Because those guys are in love with the game.
Speaker 3 (08:34):
Yeah, but I like he's one of the guys like
I'm like, I'm kind of glad he wasn't on my team,
you know, Uh, so that that's it. I don't know, man,
I just think when you attack a fan base like
it just shows you're a clown. Like it's such a clown.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
It's just like you, dude, you haven't played in eight years.
Eight dude, you're you're call it a decade, you know
what I mean, and you're still gonna make remarkable. That
would be like if Derek Jeter was like I hate
all Boston fans, like, come on, like super weird, Like
you've been out of the game too long. Man, If
you had a visceral hatred for your fans because you
(09:12):
just hated playing in a particular ballpark and you were
like a year out of retirement, I can understand, but
like eight years and you're still holding on to some
sort of unsettled business. Jason, calm down, relas not that serious.
Speaker 3 (09:24):
He just wanted his name and.
Speaker 1 (09:29):
Want to be relevant for I.
Speaker 3 (09:32):
Can't play baseball anymore, but I got a pony and
met fans stink Like all right, Jason cool?
Speaker 1 (09:40):
Did you uh did you see that? Uh? The Dalton
Varsity Jason Worth is dead? You guys, No, no, we
break news on people that die. We don't wish death
on this podcast, at least not on the air. You
saw that, Dalton varshow catch I sent you from Toronto
the Toronto Boston game on Tuesday night? Did I see it? Dude?
(10:02):
Please pull up your phone and watch it right now,
Dalton var Show. I think, Uh, I'm.
Speaker 3 (10:07):
So glad we study each other's notes.
Speaker 1 (10:09):
We really don't. I want to say Toronto was up
there playing Boston Tuesday night, and it is a hard
hit ball. It's a centerfield bar. Show's going back trips
like almost does a summrsault, sticks his glove behind his back,
makes the catch. It's absolutely I think I sent it
in the group with Burt and Carl and everybody.
Speaker 3 (10:29):
I don't send it there.
Speaker 1 (10:30):
Man, Are you saying you don't check that.
Speaker 3 (10:32):
I only checked the only Corey and Mike.
Speaker 1 (10:35):
I knew I did it wrong, dude, it was. It
is already catch of the year. Like whatever else happens
in the MLB season, there's nothing else that is ever, ever,
ever going to compare to what he did. Not only
did he do it, he made it look so smooth
and he like barely smiled afterwards, like he just like
that's the kind of thing I do all the time.
It was just guys if yeah, check it out the
(10:56):
Dalton var Show catch going to Centerfield Tuesday night. I
had to just send it to you last night. Literally,
I think I sent this to you either way. Absolutely,
I got nothing.
Speaker 3 (11:10):
My man, I'm in the maybe send it to me personally.
Speaker 1 (11:14):
No, check that. Let's let's wait everybody that's listening to us. Well,
there's just a ton of messages.
Speaker 3 (11:21):
Yo, I send you so much.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
I heard it.
Speaker 3 (11:23):
No, this is the one where it's the glitch and
the matrix. That's the last one I have from you,
which was also crazy.
Speaker 1 (11:29):
No, this like te same Oh no, it was just
me you. It's me you, Carl and Bert can you
like it?
Speaker 3 (11:39):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (11:40):
Oh? And Mullins is on this one too, And where
did this group come from?
Speaker 3 (11:46):
It's gotta be Carl. It's mostly me using this group.
Why am I using that group?
Speaker 1 (11:51):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (11:52):
There is another one?
Speaker 1 (11:53):
Yeah? Actually?
Speaker 3 (11:58):
Oh oh vintage y'all never reminds me of Beltron when
he fell up off the hill like Houston used to
have a.
Speaker 1 (12:07):
Hill thanks Astrodome.
Speaker 3 (12:10):
Yeah no, it was like the minim Maid had it.
Speaker 1 (12:14):
Oh yeah, yeah, they got rid of it.
Speaker 3 (12:16):
Eventually they're like, hey, maybe we shouldn't have this, Like yeah, maybe,
like too many people got injured on it, like who
puts Like I get it, like baseball like Yankee stadiums,
Like yeah, we'll just go two hundred feet, like we
don't need the three ten or whatever, and like all
dimensions are different. But let's put a hill up like
that'd be cool.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
Sounds like strategy if you ask me.
Speaker 3 (12:37):
Yeah, well, I mean it failed. I mean but beltron
knew his way around that hill, which was amazing.
Speaker 1 (12:42):
Let's talk. Let's shift gears. Let's just get it out
of the way now. Because something with the network on
a lot of traction this week, and that was Germ
from Stuff about Sports posted a nice clip to was
on It's been everywhere, It's been TikTok, YouTube, Instagram. Don
Lemon got caught a piece of it. He's been on
(13:03):
radio shows all week talking about it, basically talking about
the Shador Sanders fall from from what we'll call it,
grace fall, slip, you know, mishap what whatever, whatever you
want to call it. But he brought up just basically
a comparison between the Manning brothers and Dion and his son.
(13:31):
So it's kind of like Archie Manning, I'm actually gonna
pull it up right now. Can help Eli and Peyton
get into the NFL, and no problem, But all of
a sudden, it's weird when Dion does it. It's on
the give us a shot one right.
Speaker 3 (13:45):
Yeah if you I want to take that, Yeah I do.
I just want to say one thing. Five hundred twenty
five thousand and six hundred minutes is how much that's
been viewed an entire year.
Speaker 1 (13:59):
And yeah, it's unreal.
Speaker 2 (14:03):
Listen to this micro managed payting basically micro managed Peyton
and Eli's early careers, and everybody was like, man, what
a supportive dad. He told the Chargers to straight up
not draft Eli or he wasn't playing. That was cool
when he did it, but it's different for Dion. SHOULDR
and Dion have a similar vibe? Suddenly it's danger don't
draft him? Is it just me? Or is there's a
(14:25):
slight double standard happening here? What's the secret sauce that
the Mannings had that the Sanders family's missing besides you know,
not being Mannings. Different rules for different dudes, apparently, And
you can't tell me that it's ego because Baker Mayfield
and Johnny Manziel also had ego, but that didn't stop
teams from drafting them in the first round. So I'm
curious to what it is exactly, other than some form
(14:48):
of railroading or punishment for shor Sanders just simply taking
advantage of the gifts and the advantages that he was given.
Speaker 1 (14:57):
Yeah, So I bring this up, and I kind of
wish Jerrem was here to talk about it, but he's
been everywhere. I kind of wanted to save him, you know,
from speaking more on it. But first of all, before
he even put that out, I texted the group like
I felt bad for the kid, Yeah, because you gotta
(15:18):
think he's just a kid. And everybody has I shouldn't
say everybody. It seems like most of the Internet has
this hatred form that they're kind of like good a
doose of reality, like he's had it easy. Yeah, Like
it's not like if you can't throw a football, it's
not like Colorado's gonna give you the starting quarterback job.
You obviously have to be good at your job. But
whether you think he's first round material whatever, I mean,
(15:41):
you could argue anyway, shape or form. But when you're
a nineteen twenty year old kid, however old he is,
he's gonna believe his own hype. Everybody's man saying he's
arrogant and he's cocky. For the last year, all he
had to do was put on ESPN and watch how
(16:03):
people were going absolutely bananas over him, telling him that
he's top five material, he's first round material. He's gonna
land here a legit draft board, Like I know somebody
that uh played football, you played played offensive line, uh,
tight end? That was legit on a draft board. And
he fell a little bit, but he'd be the first
(16:26):
one to tell you how insane it was. The first
turn on ESPN and see you going on this round
on this draft board for this team. So I don't
care if you grew up with money or not. You
you're believing your own hype. And people have such a
problem with that.
Speaker 3 (16:41):
Yeah, And in the other situation with that is like
nobody had him being drafted in the third round, like
nobody of important, fifth nobody fifth d like nobody had
him anywhere near not being a number one.
Speaker 1 (16:56):
Draft Right before the draft, when all of this, I
don't even call it information, but when it was just
saying he didn't he was very arrogant in his pre
draft interviews and all that stuff. Whatever, that's all opinion, right,
we know none of us were there. We didn't sit
down on in these meetings. There's no release footage or
recordings that we can listen to to figure for out
(17:17):
whether we think he's arrogant. That it's all hearsay. Right,
So even after that, they said there might be a
slight fall to early second round, which is still okay,
but fifth round, like what are we doing? And then
more information comes out, like owners are telling gms to
(17:38):
just take them off your draft board completely, but they
don't want them because of his attitude, because of this
like attitude, like like like jerm had said, Baker Mayfield
partying awful drugs drinking, that's okay, not Mayfield, excuse me, Manziel,
Manziel party drugs drinking, that's okay. Mayfield I think got
a DUI before he was even drafted. Like it's flashy,
(18:00):
it's and good, don't get me wrong, but Mayfield good
football player. Manzel obviously didn't pan out, But why was
their stock higher than a kid that has seemingly, as
far as we know, been in no trouble at all. Yeah, like,
what what else can we do? And if you read
the comments, I know there's been a lot of accusations
(18:22):
and and it's it's everybody says like, oh, you're leaning
towards going that it's got to be about race, And
that's not what he said. I don't hear that, but
I do hear him asking the question, like what's the difference?
Speaker 3 (18:35):
I think I think he really can touch you can
take And this is why I was so artfully done
by Germ and like it was well done talking about
owner collusion. Right, you can even think about how all
sudden Colin Kaepernick didn't have a job, right, and then.
Speaker 1 (18:51):
Nobody wanted to touch him, right because of this aura
that was around him and this this noise that everybody
talks about, right, So it.
Speaker 3 (18:59):
Just so happened all every single team didn't want to
take a shot on them, right, And like, so you
think about owner collusion, which is a real thing. Trump
touched on that. Yeah, so this is not a you know, uh,
this is not a one sided one party thing. This
is clearly right and wrong. Like you know, and like
(19:19):
I said, nobody. I didn't see anybody said like you said.
They said maybe late early second round, but nobody said
beyond third round that we still know.
Speaker 1 (19:29):
You can't tell me again. You cannot tell me that
a team you know had no need for that type
of quarterback, you know, before the fifth round, and the
team that took him. It's almost like in fantasy football
when you got a player that nobody picked up and
you can't understand why they're still hanging around, and you
(19:50):
pick them up, and then it's like a further drafts
great again, exactly. I mean Cleveland, Cleveland's got no shortage
of quarterbacks, and honestly, it's gonna be a great competition.
But if I'm sure Door, I'm in the gym the
next day. Now I have a point to prove, so
I can go back to all of you to make
these owners. So when after my two years rookie contract
(20:12):
is up, whatever it is, and you're trying to throw
money at me, I'm gonna I'm gonna pull back to
see where you put me on this draft board and
block you know, so on and so forth. I'm getting
my revenge if I'm him. But it's it is, it's
funny and it is artfully done. And if again, if
you read the comments, everybody that gets super mad, it's like,
I can't believe you made it about race, And he
(20:33):
actually didn't touch on that at all. He actually just
touched on football players with a dad that helped him
get in the NFL. Football player with a dad that
helped him to get in the NFL. That's it. But
if you want to bring that up, maybe you're making
it about that, right or you I feel some sort
of way. I look at it like he's a kid,
and yeah, is he a kid that grew up with money? Sure,
that's not his fault. Was his dad flashy and have
(20:55):
a little bit of an attitude? And yeah, maybe, but
his dad would also back up a lot. That's why
he's in the Hall of Fame. You can't deny his skill.
When he played, he made sure he's the best. Plus
he's one of the few two sport professional athletes. A
guy that used to play football get on a private
jet and then go play baseball.
Speaker 3 (21:17):
And he put a college that not many people even
knew of on the map and literally on primetime.
Speaker 1 (21:23):
What are we talking about? Forget about attitude? This guy
is a professional athlete in two sports. The only guy,
if I'm getting the stat right to, I.
Speaker 3 (21:33):
Can't see their play a baseball game, well in the
same day playoff baseball game.
Speaker 1 (21:39):
NFL game, and I even say he did he hit
a home run in that playoff baseball game too. Either way,
how nobody does that? Certainly not anymore.
Speaker 3 (21:50):
Or nowhere near. You know, nobody's even thinking of doing that.
Speaker 1 (21:55):
Pick the college that he knew he could make a
difference a huge mentor anybody that has watched Colorado over
the last few years. You see the speeches. You see
what he talks about. You see he talks about responsibility.
He talks about you know, these young athletes be becoming
young adults and you know, taking what they do serious.
(22:15):
He talks about, you know, family and how to carry
yourself in the team. It's it's all good character things
that he teaches everybody on that team. And now all
of a sudden, we're gonna talk about character of his
son that has never been in trouble before. Like what
are we doing? Guys? How mean do we want to
be on the internet where we're good? A dosive reality
(22:37):
like adosive reality just absolutely unreal.
Speaker 3 (22:41):
The prank call, like I.
Speaker 1 (22:43):
Just and that's again, that's just another not good look.
Like your two college kids, right, let's just give facts here,
your two college kids that decide to film yourselves making
this call. And it's like, again, yes, did he grow
up privileged with money? Absolutely? Does that give you the
(23:03):
right to be a total dick for no reason, just
because you want to? Like, listen, he was already projected
to go first round at the latest second round. You
knew he was waiting for a phone call, you know,
like and and now all of a sudden, you're gonna like,
what more do you want to do? He's he can't
hurt him anymore. He's already not he hasn't been drafted
(23:24):
in the first round. He's already disappointed. And then you're
gonna tell him the whole thing was just stupid and
in poor taste. Like is that the sense of humor
of kids these days? Like it's just unreal?
Speaker 3 (23:34):
No, Like, I kind of obviously on the biggest day
of your life. Your you're pos for doing that. But
there is one where this college people like called up
Mintor and told him to get warmed up. So he's
playing like they found the bullpen number to like a
college bullpen phone and they called up and they're like
(23:55):
get mintor and and and they're like Mintor. They're like, yeah,
that I started, get him up, get him loose, And
it was the starting pitcher, so it didn't make any sense.
But they still was like they made him go out.
Speaker 1 (24:07):
That's funny. You're on the team. You did. Like that
to me is hysterical, like calling a kid that's waiting
to see if he's basically getting a job. Yeah, you
know what I mean, Like if you went on an interview.
Speaker 3 (24:22):
And wait, I can't wait for you, Like if you
go for like athletic director, what I'm saying, RECORDO me, Bob,
you didn't get the job.
Speaker 1 (24:34):
And then well, come to find out, you know, it
was Jeff Olbrich's son, Jackson check up as the doctors,
I call you waiting for my test results, my defensive
(24:54):
coordinator of the Jets, the Jets, of the Falcons. It's
just it was his son. He somehow got a hold
of the number. The coach was fine, the Falcons were fine.
It was just this whole ordeal. It's just it's like,
that's not a funny prank man. That's it's just stupid,
so stupid.
Speaker 3 (25:15):
What else is stupid? What the people that are annoyed
with Barkley over going to the White House and flying
with Trump and like golfing with him because we don't
know what political stance he has, right, Like, it's none
of our business. But if the President invites you to
(25:36):
the to the the White House, I'm probably gonna go
just out of experience.
Speaker 1 (25:41):
Right.
Speaker 3 (25:42):
And then also like this is a situation that makes
me laugh because everybody was cool with Obama and him
making jokes and having fun at the funeral for oh jeez,
our president. He just died.
Speaker 1 (25:57):
Jimmy Carter, Jimmy Carter's dead guys, Jimmy Carter's man. If
only we did a show around the time Jay Carter died.
Speaker 3 (26:03):
But you saw them like laughing and cackling like they're
and I always say this to people. Everybody gets so
riled up. But the fact is Trump and Obama would
go out to dinner with their wives or together before
they would ever go out to dinner with their biggest
supporter that's not a millionaire or billionaire or anything like that. Right,
(26:25):
So they're not gonna we could vote for them. We
could believe in their stuff, but to go after Barkley
the way they've done, like it's just like for me
seeing it in Philadelphia and just seeing this stuff, it's like, dude,
come on one, Like, can we get back to a world
where we respect the office? Like I'm not going to
share if I've voted for the guy or not, but
(26:46):
the fact is, like I still respect the office.
Speaker 1 (26:48):
Right, Dude. You bring up a good point, and I
know this isn't that type of podcast, but uh, that's
what politics used to be. Now you're a Republican, I'm Democrat.
We go out to dinner, our kids play together, we
are wives or friends, were friends, and then that's how
you got bipartisan things to pass because I'd be more
willing to listen to you because I know you on
a friendship type level. And that's what happened, dude. Simon
(27:12):
Sinek one of my favorite writers. He wrote a really
good book called Leaders Eat Last, and it's just basically
about leadership. But he talks about this one situation in Washington,
Newt Gingrich. Remember Newt Gingrich. All these representatives used to
live in Washington, their kids used to grow up together,
(27:33):
They used to see each other and they'd be more
willing to sit at the table and talk until he knew.
Basically said, well, we can't get any work done for
our states if we're here, and he suggested all representatives
moving back, having an office in their state and then
they just go to Washington when they need to meet
from time to time for whatever their meetings are, and
he goes on to stay this is the quick say,
(27:53):
this is the quick version that that was kind of
the decline because since we may have different platforms that
we support, I'm I don't see you as often. I
don't go to dinner with you. Our kids don't play together,
so I'm less likely to listen to what's coming out
of your mouth because I support this platform and you
support that. As far as Barkley goes, dude, you've been
to the Trump National and Colts Neck, right, it's gorgeous. Yeah,
(28:15):
I don't care what golf course he's inviting me to,
So I'm going yeah.
Speaker 3 (28:20):
Because of that the YouTube video with him in prison, like, uh,
we've seen him golf. I want to witness that in person.
Just the way he putts it's like he does a
little like twirl and twist. It's like I want to
see that in person, Like, so I don't blame Barkley.
Barkley clap back. He was like, look, I'm not gonna
get political. I've golfed with Obama, I golf with Trump.
(28:42):
He offered to give me a ride. I accepted, Like
get over it.
Speaker 1 (28:46):
Like a person. He's still a person, yes, like some
people hate him. It's like love him, hate him. It
is what it is. But like enough with this, yes,
like are you It's like you know what that's like?
That person is not my friend. I don't want you
talking to them. Yeah, what like you gotta be kiddy, dude, golf,
you're gonna golf. I'd let him buy me golf clubs.
(29:07):
I don't care. He could put his name on him
for a new set of irons. Why not.
Speaker 3 (29:11):
Where it really started to bother me was the one
comment I saw like hashtag not my running back, and
I'm just like stop.
Speaker 1 (29:18):
And I was like, and you must be a giants man, So.
Speaker 3 (29:24):
Like it's just like it's definitely in an eye roll,
like who cares?
Speaker 1 (29:29):
You know, like if you don't want to go, don't go.
Speaker 3 (29:33):
But if you want to go, go, like who cares?
Speaker 1 (29:36):
Kind of bigger things than the world. I worry about them.
A professional football player that played golf with the president, you.
Speaker 3 (29:43):
Know what, I've been worried about and researching aliens.
Speaker 1 (29:46):
No, but.
Speaker 3 (29:49):
Mm hmm I should uh the one gorilla versus one
hundred humans?
Speaker 1 (29:55):
Dude? I asked my wife this question today and she
was like, where did you get that from? And I'm like,
what do you Where did I get him everywhere? I said,
all of the internet. Yeah, I want to get your
take before I tell you my take. Could The question
that hit the internet this week guys was could a
could one gorilla beat one hundred men or vice versa
(30:15):
in hand or this is hand to hand combat? Okay,
one hundred men versus a full grown, let's just say
silverback gorilla that averages about five six hundred pounds. Who's
winning that fight? Mike, your take on this?
Speaker 3 (30:29):
So I went straight to the powers that be, the
man up in the sky chat ChiPT Yeah, and he
said that one hundred a gorilla would win hands down
without like with ease. They could use their arm length
is the size of a human, so one arm is
(30:50):
the size of a human. They could literally pick one
up and knock the other ten dead. Their their blows
would be fatal, bone crushing, skull crushing. Body builders just
normally or relatively weak individuals can't even bench press. So
like if you went average human, it would they would
(31:13):
They predict that the gorillas would eliminate them within like
eight minutes.
Speaker 1 (31:22):
One gorilla beats one hundred guys in eight minutes. So
someone I saw did like a scientific calculation and said
that the gorilla doesn't win, but the gorilla takes care
of like like only like twenty of the one hundred survive. No, yeah,
this says they would all be gone without looking at anything.
I'm team gorilla all day. And what's even worse is
(31:46):
I would put money on the I would go right
to like DraftKings, I would put money on the Gorilla.
I would if it was a pay per view, I
would pay to watch it. I wouldn't even try to
stream it somewhere like it's gorilla all day. Those things
are insane. There's a reason they're behind thick glass at
the goddamn zouit.
Speaker 3 (32:05):
One gorilla, I could throw a single human twenty to
thirty feet in the air.
Speaker 1 (32:09):
It's a rag doll, I'm telling you, man.
Speaker 3 (32:11):
Even if multiple people rushed at once, the gorilla would
thrash and toss them around. A group crush wouldn't happen.
A group rush couldn't happen fast enough because humans aren't
coordinated like trained fighters or packed animals. Yeah, so then
I started to get like really down this rabbit hole,
(32:33):
so you gotta stick with me. So then I asked Chad,
if one hundred humans with a traditional two inch pocket
knife could beat.
Speaker 1 (32:45):
A gorilla, every single one of them has a pocket knife. Yeah,
that's an unfair advance.
Speaker 3 (32:49):
So two inches that two inches, two inches, and it's
still predicted that the gorilla would win, and even if
the gorilla died, he would still be able to gorilla
kills maybe thirty to fifty people. Quickly, the humans start
to get overwhelmed with hundreds of stabs, eventually weakening it,
(33:10):
especially if they stab the eyes, throat, or vital areas.
The gorilla might finally fall, but at a horrific cost.
At least half, if not all humans dead or critically wounded.
The survivors would likely be mauled. So he made a
few scenarios where even if they one of them was
(33:33):
able to land a blow like that, the gorilla would
still be able to Yeah, they're not going to bleed
out as quickly. What then, I said, Okay, forget pocket knives.
What about unlimited legos? And this is like he goes, okay, hilarious.
Speaker 1 (33:51):
The humans have unlimited legos.
Speaker 3 (33:53):
Yeah, when you get Ai to chuckle, you know you're
on us up. So this made me feel good. He goes, okay, hilario,
ingenius twist. Let's break this down carefully. No more pocket knives,
unlimited legos. Step on legos actually hurt humans. Be kind
so saying, just like, humans can be smart enough to
(34:15):
know the pain of legos. So if you just put
legos all over the floor, it would piss off the gorilla.
But all the humans have to do is just shuffle
their feet h gorilla's feet. So what happens Every moment
hurts the gorilla like crazy. It can't charge fast without
(34:35):
stepping on lego pain land mines. The humans throw legos,
build lego walls, don't files of legos around the gorilla's feet,
and they could control their battlefield. The gorilla would become
hesitant to move slower and less aggressive because of every
step is like hell a hundred The human strategy. Build
(34:59):
lego walls, trenches, and towers cover the ground completely. In legos,
the gorilla cannot move without excruciating pain. Throw legos at
its face and eyes to distort it dog pilot once
it's slow and confused. Eventually the gorilla could be overwhelmed, tackled, restrained,
possibly even suffocated under human mass.
Speaker 1 (35:21):
So how many humans die with the unlimited legos? None?
Speaker 3 (35:26):
One hundred women one hundred humans probably win with some casualties.
The casualties the first few that get too close still
get destroyed. Victory would take time and coordination, using the
legos smartly, not just running mindlessly. If they were smart
and use the lego tactics, humans win. If they are
(35:47):
dumb and tried to just punch it, the gorilla would
still wipe out dozens before going down. Would you like
a sketch of what this would look like? So then
I said yes, so they may be like a battlefield
sketch like. And then I was like, you know what
I want.
Speaker 1 (36:07):
I'm convinced we use.
Speaker 3 (36:12):
So it's pretty good.
Speaker 1 (36:13):
We definitely used chat GPT in the military.
Speaker 3 (36:16):
What do I do now? What do I do? Call
the crews?
Speaker 1 (36:20):
Nap just kidding unreal.
Speaker 3 (36:23):
Yeah, that that was a lot of fun. I appreciate
you sticking with me and letting me read to the audience.
Speaker 1 (36:28):
But absolutely, Yeah. First of all, I thought that if
every because we I asked that question at work and uh,
someone had asked, I'm like, we have to give the like,
we have to give the human something, not every human,
but we think of a few of them, like weapons
to kind of like even out the odds here, and
a knife was brought up, and I was like, you
can't give a knife to every single human. I'm glad
(36:50):
you asked that question, because the humans still don't the
humans still don't win with if ever, the every single
one of them have a pocket knife. So but give
a man a legos build over the world. Yeah, teach
a man to fish and he can eat first. It's
like he's a master builder.
Speaker 3 (37:11):
Let him through.
Speaker 1 (37:12):
Well. If that wasn't frank frightening enough, frankening, frankening, frank
franken beans, if that wasn't frightening enough, former government scientists
claim that there are documented cases of aliens killing people.
Dun Oh, who cares? Now from a guy that doesn't
(37:35):
believe we've ever been to the Moon. Just bear with you,
all right, because there's always these documented cases of like
contact and interviews with aliens and UFO sightings and all that.
Speaker 3 (37:46):
That Soviet Union thing. Is that what we're going to
get into, or no, this isn't that one?
Speaker 1 (37:52):
What Soviet Union?
Speaker 3 (37:53):
So the Russia just released articles where they shot down
a UFO and and then the aliens got out and
turned everybody to stone.
Speaker 1 (38:03):
Oh no, not that.
Speaker 3 (38:04):
One one person survived, believe any of that. And his
name was Chuck Norris.
Speaker 1 (38:10):
I'm the only survivor. No, this guy is named Jacques Valet.
He worked on the US Air Force Project blue Book
and was the inspiration for the French scientist in Steven
Spielberg's movie called Close Encounters of the Third Time That
was the one of Spielberg's first films that got him famous.
He claims that there are documented cases of aliens killing people.
(38:34):
He's also one of the first prominent figures to suggest
that aliens and UFOs might actually be coming from alternate
realities rather than other planets. So not only is he
making these claims, his background should show that he is
batshit crazy as well. Okay, so but just bear with me.
Here we go all right, he says, I could tell you, quote,
I can tell you that in my files, some of
(38:55):
which I contributed to the database of they're at least
half a dozen well documented. The cases were the injuries
that resulted in death were deliberate? This dude saying aliens
killed like six people. Unreal. In two thousand and eight,
he worked on a secret UFO study launched by the
Defense Intelligence Agency. So this guy still works for the
government called Advanced Aerospace Weapons System Applications Program or AAWSAP
(39:21):
for shorts. Oh that makes sense, exactly exactly. I knew
that's gonna catch on everywhere. The project was concealed inside
a Las Vegas aerospace company, because if I want to
keep something a secret, Las Vegas is definitely the place
that insight.
Speaker 3 (39:34):
Yeah, I would.
Speaker 1 (39:37):
According to the UFO expert and investigative journalist George Knapp, quote,
one focus of the Advanced Aerospace Weapons System Application Program
was genuinely disturbing the real life health consequences for humans
who come into contact with UFOs. Hundreds of serious injuries
have been documented. Like, I don't if your docum the
(40:00):
goddamn injuries. Don't you think you're gonna have some pictures.
Like if you see a Maserati driving down the you know,
Sunset Boulevard, you're gonna stop and take a picture, you
know what I mean. If you're in South Beach and
Lambo drives by in parks, you stop in front, you
take a picture of it, Like what are we doing here? Guys?
You're gonna document the injury, like, but not the actual UFO.
Speaker 3 (40:25):
Well, like when the Catholics invaded all these countries and
stole all their precious treasures and stuff, made them swear
to Catholicism, Apparently they took a lot of those documents
with them. So we're hoping because the pope is dead,
Pizza Bella Pope gets put in.
Speaker 1 (40:45):
I don't want Pizza Bella.
Speaker 3 (40:46):
I want Pizza Bella.
Speaker 1 (40:47):
I know it's a great name. I don't want Pizza Bela.
Speaker 3 (40:51):
I'm think it's Pizza Bella. Bolum would be better too.
Speaker 1 (40:54):
Well, I mean it's a very Italian name. Is even Italian?
I hope he's Italian? Pizza Bella.
Speaker 3 (40:59):
I think it's like peer Batista Pizza Bela. That's that's
a fantastic na.
Speaker 1 (41:06):
Like what's your name?
Speaker 3 (41:08):
Peer patiss about Pizza Mella pizza there.
Speaker 1 (41:11):
Like, okay, yeah, that checks out. Let him in. That's
how he became a card. You're saying the Vatican has ufo.
Speaker 3 (41:20):
Yes, they were saying, like so everybody was like the
minute died, they're like released the dogs.
Speaker 1 (41:25):
So I've been to the Vatican, bro, there's no there's
a bunch of statues with with penises hanging out, but
there's no rid of the penis.
Speaker 3 (41:33):
They put leaves on it. The one guy shot him
and then the other guy put leaves on them, like
some crazy stuff. Not many left, that's fair. They shot
a lot.
Speaker 1 (41:44):
Of just target practice. You know, there's just you listen,
you gotta jesus, Oh my god, what else? Dude? Is
that it? And we exhausted everything with news. Oh god,
we talked about more death on this podcast. We might
as well talk about Elway's agent. Oh yeah, always agents.
(42:06):
Then you guys, oh my god, this is this is
actually insane. So Jeff Spurbeck, this is John Elway's longtime
friend and agent passed away due to injury sustained from
falling off a golf cart. And when I first heard that,
I was like, dude, he was drunk golfing. But no,
(42:27):
it was. They were like riding from with this there's
this the stage Coach Festival, stage Coach Music Festival party.
So he was on one of those like golf carts
that go on like that. Has and his neighbor go
to thirty miles per hour, right, So my guess it
doesn't say that Elway was irresponsible. They also haven't commented
(42:50):
on the state of mind that Spurbek was. It could
just be one of those freak things where he's going
and you know, he loses balance, he can get vertigo.
I think I was sixty something years old, so it
could have been with just a weird situation to where
he fell, didn't you know, brace himself and cracked his
head and unfortunately passed away. Life support taken off. But yeah,
(43:11):
he fell off the back of a golf cart, hit
his head on the ground. Damn. Elway was the one driving.
Cops investigated. They didn't. They didn't say that Lway uh
acted irresponsibly so to speak.
Speaker 3 (43:25):
I'm not laughing at the poor man losing.
Speaker 1 (43:27):
You're laughing at everybody dying.
Speaker 3 (43:29):
I just envisioned l Way on the highway.
Speaker 1 (43:35):
Jase, my cops, bro I'm like, ge, like, how we
know you pushed him.
Speaker 3 (43:42):
We know you pushed him, and it's just refusing to rest,
just like the Bronco High Speed Chase, only it's l
Way and his golf cart instead. Oh man, that'd be good.
Hey if I'm if I'm gonna go out, I want
you to be the one that does it.
Speaker 1 (44:02):
So that's that's how you want to go, or that's how.
Speaker 3 (44:06):
You be hilarious. I would love, like, dude, if you
killed me, like at that age, like or whatever on
like that accident, like I'll be like, got him, like
he's gonna this is gonna bother him for the rest
I win, like such a troll. I was like, man,
this is better than calling is.
Speaker 1 (44:22):
If I'm dying from a golf cart, it's didn't get
a job. I'm golfing. I don't want That's exactly what
it is. Let me get struck by lightning with a
club in my hand.
Speaker 3 (44:31):
For the love of God, I'm gonna be out of
golf course more than I would probably want to be
the next week. And that's for the truest championship. With
the PGA, I worked with you know, their team and
our team to you know, help raise awareness for the
truest coming it's it's at Philly Cricket. It's a one
(44:55):
and done, which kind of stinks, but you know, the
world's gonna get a taste of golf and we'll be
there broadcasting throughout the week. There's a Creator's Classic page
page Sprague, he's gonna be there.
Speaker 1 (45:07):
Oh yeah.
Speaker 3 (45:08):
So there's and a bunch of barstool guys, a lot
of golf influencers. So it's gonna be a really cool weekend.
If you want to win tickets to it. There is
a contest page on Q one, O two and Swinging
and ding It. If you go over to Swinging and
Ding It, you could just tag the person you would
love to go there, and they're giving away tickets, uh
to the michelob Ultra Lounge, which is like free beer, drinks,
(45:31):
some food. So it's pretty cool. Yeah, that's that's what
I got going on next week.
Speaker 1 (45:36):
Throw my hat in the ring for that. I want.
I want to take us to that lounge.
Speaker 3 (45:39):
I tagged in it.
Speaker 1 (45:40):
Yes, done. All right, guys, have a good week. Fingers
crossed that nobody dies is this next coming week. But
you never know, I mean, so is life is what
it is. We'll see you. Next week is The Vie
Live on Fox Sports.
Speaker 3 (45:51):
The game a heck of a week
