Disagreement, bring up I do, and here we are Divide Live,
Fox Sports. The Gambler want a five Philly one of
four to one, Trenton stumbling over my own words. Here,
NFL is back and it is the Mets are back Philly.
Philly never left sort of, we mean kind of they're dude.

Speaker 3 (01:13):
I toughest schedule now left remaining, and like seven of
those games are against Philly nonsense, So hopefully Philly's got
it all wrapped up. But if those games matter, like
I don't know, man, I'm I'm sticking the course.

Speaker 2 (01:27):
You're trying the course right now.

Speaker 3 (01:30):
No, I I got my remember this rally Raccoon Donny Diesel,
Like what other knickknacks that we had throughout the years.
Four This is not a nick knack, but it does
remind me of it.

Speaker 2 (01:48):
Oh yeah, that thing is awesome.

Speaker 3 (01:50):
J Matt Customs. Baby, this will be around forever. It
doesn't matter. It's already served its purpose more than any
of those things I just talked talked about.

Speaker 2 (01:57):
For those of you that aren't watching the live stream,
he's holding up an OMG sign wall thing.

Speaker 3 (02:06):
But it looks nice, mean by our boy j mc customs.

Speaker 2 (02:09):
Everything great, it's perfect. So was that artistic? Just be like, yeah,
no car all that So, I I don't know, man.
I mean, if those of you in Philly right now,
I mean, you guys are sitting pretty, you got nothing
to worry about. But yeah, I really do feel like
I'm calling it right now. The Mets are gonna be
in it. Man. I appreciate that I'm always wrong about

(02:32):
that type of stuff.

Speaker 3 (02:32):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, like you know, it's just look, I
it does give me flashbacks of twenty What year is
this twenty twenty two Phillies, you know, so.

Speaker 2 (02:43):
Yeah so, but listening to Red's Blue Jays, that's not
I feel like you're counting yourself out. And then you
you've got to play the Nats too. After the Philly
I feel like you're really being a pessimist.

Speaker 3 (02:53):
How many against three against Atlanta? We got Atlanta two
and that.

Speaker 2 (02:59):
Two three against Atlanta when you finished with the Brewers too,
that three against Atlanta. You see Philly five times, which
is I hate this. I absolutely hate the way they
do the schedule every year. Yeah, but look, this is
this is fun. We essentially are in a virtual tie
with Atlanta, which is sick, you know, and and it's

(03:20):
that's my phone.

Speaker 3 (03:22):
It's gonna continue, you know, it's going to continue to
be a crazy, crazy September and June. You couldn't have
predicted this, you know what I mean?

Speaker 2 (03:31):
Last week?

Speaker 3 (03:32):
Yeah, I mean, yeah, that's fair. But it's like best
record in baseball since like May, which is crazy, so
really April, May, June, since end of June. Sorry, it's
goodt Yeah, it would be great if I knew my dates.

Speaker 2 (03:48):
Though, Chris, No, no, that's you leave. That's for the
real reporters here. Okay, the real reporting. We're all fake
news here. It doesn't absolutely fake news. There's nothing imported
and has ever crossed this desk. And in fact, if
those of you are watching, if the camera resolution is
good enough and you can see the picture drawn on
my notes here, you would know that there's nothing. It

(04:11):
was death.

Speaker 3 (04:11):
Mine's a little more PG.

Speaker 1 (04:12):
Like.

Speaker 3 (04:13):
I just have guys and I make little people. I
don't know why I never draw.

Speaker 2 (04:19):
No, they're not terribly I'm looking at them now.

Speaker 3 (04:21):
They're not shout outs to Iconic Candy either. It's camera Jordan.
They went out to eat the other day. I saw
it in their Facebook story or their Instagram store. Nobody
has Facebook stories.

Speaker 2 (04:33):
The Facebook.

Speaker 3 (04:34):
I feel like there's Instagram stories that land on Facebook.

Speaker 2 (04:37):
Fair.

Speaker 3 (04:38):
Yes, So I saw it on their Instagram and they
drew like a dragon and it was this nice, lean,
mean dragon and then like after they ate, they drew
a fatter dragon and they're like us after we ate here,
So I guess like they like drew. It was like
one of those like like it looked fancy, but it
looked candle at dinner. But it was like something you

(04:58):
could draw on the the actual like table boy.

Speaker 2 (05:02):
Like Ruth's Chris, like, do you have a napkin and
some crayons please? I'd like to draw what I mean.

Speaker 3 (05:07):
Look, when when you run a candy company, you gotta
absolutely do. But Altoyd Sours is like going dude. The
New York Times picked it up. Uh, Iconics hours retro Sour,
Sorry Iconics resurrecting the Altoyd Sours and the New York

(05:29):
Times picked it up a ton of other social media
outlets like it's just everybody can't wait for the debut
with this, and it's like they struck gold twice, like honestly,
like when creams cream Savers came back. When they resurrected
cream Savers, the whole world went crazy. It was sold
out for weeks months. People were like reselling them on
eBay for like fifty bucks, and that's gonna happen here.

(05:52):
So you are lucky. If you're.

Speaker 2 (05:55):
I'm lucky, I'm going to be rich.

Speaker 3 (05:58):
I mean, you're lucky if you're smart enough to go
to Cracker Barrel get them and resell them because they
are going to be flying off those shelves and Cracker Barrel,
you're very lucky to have them too, because you're gonna
have this newfound rech ol millennial customer that like honestly
doesn't go there.

Speaker 2 (06:12):
So you know, it's absolutely crazy that we live in
a world first of all, huge shoutouts to Icon of Candy.
Super proud that not only are you guys thriving, but
thriving enough that you're there's a resale. Your candy is
gonna be an eBay dude for a thousand percent markup.

Speaker 3 (06:32):
Yeah, it's definitely gonna happen. It's absolute. So I would
hold every single one of those tin cans too.

Speaker 2 (06:37):
Like you know, you talk to people, it's like what
to do. I flip sneakers for a living or even
like take it, I flip houses. That's d I flip candy, bro.

Speaker 3 (06:44):
Bro, that's the type of wave. I feel like these
are like the Jordan Five's coming back, like you know
what I mean. Like, it's just it's crazy. It's absolutely crazy.

Speaker 2 (06:52):
I'm gonna have to try it. I'm gonna jump in
that candy game after market candy game.

Speaker 3 (06:57):
Game we're not on right now, so you gotta when
we come back from commercial like X like apparently we're
not allowed on it. It's funny because now you have
to have a verified account. However, they told me that
if I didn't start paying, I would no longer have
a verified account.

Speaker 2 (07:10):
Just to be on it. Yet I was just on
it the other.

Speaker 3 (07:13):
To be live. Oh like, so I was like, I'm
not doing this, like I'm not, Like we got that
blue check mark and I was like, hey, we got
a blue check mark, like you know, register for it whatever.
Now they want us to pay for it, and I
was just like no, I thought like, yeah, I'm not
doing that, Like it's just ridiculous.

Speaker 2 (07:28):
So Elon's reaching into his pockets because he bought this
company and it's just been tanking ever since. I love
how he's like, no, we're doing fine, Like no, you're not, dude.
People people absolutely hate it.

Speaker 3 (07:38):
But speaking of hating it, the players, the Eagles and
the Packers they hate it because they're not able to
tweet and like it's like they're somebody you took away there.
They're one thing, They're one outlet, you know, so that
they're kind of bummed about it.

Speaker 2 (07:51):
Right now, what do we think about tonight's game?

Speaker 3 (07:53):
Man, I think it's all birds, Like honestly.

Speaker 2 (07:57):
No, no, I mean that, but I just mean as
far as like everything you hear how it's been a
complete mess. Players are worried for their safety security.

Speaker 3 (08:06):
It looks like Philly Sports Trips is having a fun time.
I saw Green Legion, another Trip group that's out there.
They're they're having a blast taking shots doing so. I
don't know if it's you know, maybe they're just smart
where they're partying right and they're at but yeah, I
don't know. I don't know if I think this is

(08:27):
a failed experiment. I don't think we'll be packed next
year anything anytime soon until political waves calm down a
little bit.

Speaker 2 (08:34):
I think we should play some games in Canada. He
I mean, ay ay, so I want it. I'm not
talking about like Toronto. I mean like northern Canada. You
clear out the forest.

Speaker 3 (08:48):
Could see Alasta. Wait, no, that it's Russia right from Alaska.

Speaker 2 (08:53):
Russia from I mean you should be able to see
and vice. Oh my god, dude, this is so listen, uh,
getting I mean staying with football, but getting off football.
You know what I hate is And this is not
gonna be a Taylor Swift rant because I don't care
about it anymore. But I hate that people still do

(09:15):
like you see the memes of like Oh, we're so
glad you're back. Not you, And it's like a picture
of Taylor Swift she was at the game Thursday. Geez,
you know what I mean, there's now all the stuff's
kicking up again. But like the amount of hate that
people are have still just because she goes to watch
her man play football. It's absolutely like would you could
you think, like a Rod had nothing but celebrity after celebrity,

(09:40):
come watch him play when he would date them, you know,
get one extra sobody cared, not one exters like why
are we like? Why? Man? Why are we like this?

Speaker 3 (09:51):
I do think Jeter brought in more female fans for
the Yankees, absolutely, yeah, so I think that was the
only other thing you could really compare this phenomenon too,
But yeah, female bringing in a female fan. You've never
seen that.

Speaker 4 (10:06):
You know, all the guys football anymore. Like Taylor's boyfriend's
playing football like you're showing her on camera when like
you know, when someone's running thirty yards into the end zone, like.

Speaker 2 (10:18):
It's just who cares?

Speaker 3 (10:19):
The only thing I compare this to is like, honestly,
like high school and like before that football like where
there was an obvious like for example, My niece is
a cheerleader so consistently, like she's at every game, right,
and then you know all her friends are there to
watch her cheer you know. So you think about that
varsity high school, like everybody went, uh somewhere there for

(10:41):
the cheerleaders, some are there for the marching band, some
are there for the actual game. Taylor Swift is like
the biggest Kansas City chief cheerleader and it's quite remarkable.
So that's that's how I really think of it. I mean,
she is getting on media coverage, yo. But they said,
like they found like a ripped where they have a
planned breakup.

Speaker 2 (11:02):
Heard that, Yeah, so if you haven't heard, uh, the
public relations team that represents Travis, not her, his PR team,
someone from it posted a basically a plan of uh
statements uh to release when they break up. Now a

(11:25):
lot of people are taking it as like they're planning
a breakup. This was it's been a year. It's all
for publicity. I don't really know who that like, who
that benefits like if no, she was already definitely a
bit of a tamp. Yeah. New Heights does.

Speaker 3 (11:41):
Not get a hundred million no no, no.

Speaker 2 (11:43):
Ray Pod, let me retract that let me track. It
did her no benefit at all to do that. So
it's like, I don't think the whole relationship was a sham.
But on one of those pictures, apparently there was a
date on it, like to be announced September twenty eighth,
twenty twenty four. So everybody's losing their mind saying, look,
they're playing in the break up September twenty eight, two

(12:04):
twenty four. It's gonna happen, which is weird for a
couple of reasons, Like it ain't gonna happen on that
date now. Yeah, everybody's talking about it, just.

Speaker 3 (12:11):
Like the NFL when we find that script.

Speaker 2 (12:13):
Yeah, exactly exactly. I don't know, man.

Speaker 3 (12:17):
Just I also saw like she was like at a
concert or whatever, and she like took something off her
left finger. Like there, She's like, I've had such the
best night of my life. I wish I wish I
could share it with you. And then all of a
sudden you saw her like glide her hand and remove
her something from her left finger.

Speaker 2 (12:35):
What. So, Yeah, it's a weird thing to announce, like
to remove Yeah, it's almost like, oh, I'm gonna tease it.
Oh I still have it on like I don't know,
and then.

Speaker 3 (12:45):
Where did she put it? Then if it was really there,
you know what I mean.

Speaker 2 (12:49):
Right here behind her ear?

Speaker 3 (12:51):
What no?

Speaker 2 (12:56):
Oh my god, the level of obsession with celebrity guys.
You gotta chill out, Like when Mike and I leave
the house and you guys like swarm off the paparazzi.
It's unreal, Like, get a life, you guys.

Speaker 3 (13:08):
Hey, you're that idiot that talks in Philadelphia about.

Speaker 2 (13:11):
The Mets, right, we don't want to hear. Please stop,
for the love of God, please stop. Yeah. Man, let's
just let's just have a good football season, you guys.
I just wish every team would win and then everybody
has a good time.

Speaker 3 (13:25):
Yeah. We were working on the promos and stuff for July.
Oh jeez, Friday, the thirteenth Mets Phillies, which is next
week next Friday, which is crazy to think, you know.
And it was in the in the notes, it was
like there were Mike aka missus Mets biggest fan, like
so it's pretty funny.

Speaker 2 (13:45):
Yeah, hell yeah, I'll take that. Yeah, me too, I'll
take that all day. Let's keep it football related. You
sent me something and I want to ask if you've
tried it, so a parent, there's this new tailgating drink.
Do you know where I'm getting at here because you're
the one that sent it to me where people are

(14:07):
mixing wine with gatorade. Oh ge gatorade is the latest
internet trend combining excuse me, gator wine is the latest
internet trend combining gatorade and cheap red wine. I love
how they had to put that it's cheap red wine,
says The latest bizarre drink trend is taking over the
internet is gator wine, a mixture of equal parts light

(14:29):
blue gatorade, which is probably the top three flavors of Gatorade.
It's the light blue one mixed with the white frost
one whatever, that one that is really really good. And
then I mean everybody's got their preference. Yeah, I'm not
going to divulge mine. It changes on a daily basis.
But so apparently this was big and it was brought

(14:50):
to the spotlight by some YouTuber and it is just
taking off. People are saying it's unreal. They're giving it
like a ten out of ten score it basically they're
comparing it to like Sangria, which is absolutely like I
didn't think Sangree. It was is like a cheap, cheap
man's wine, you know what I mean. It's like wine

(15:11):
fruits and brandy like Sangree is like supposed to be
like the the redneck wine of the wine world, you
know what I mean. And their son somehow made it
even more redneck.

Speaker 3 (15:24):
Oh man, and it's cheap red wine, which is hilarious too.
Like so it's just I.

Speaker 2 (15:28):
Don't know, man, I had a bottle of wine the
other day. You know, the bottle was only like seven bucks.
It was cheap, and it was pretty good. I mean,
that's just my my type of taste, I guess.

Speaker 3 (15:37):
But I'm excited. My buddy Brigante Wines is actually in
all the stadiums now down in Philly. So he's gonna
stop in and be on the air with us on
Friday Adas Finny Live. We're gonna talk shop with him,
former teammate of Todd Frazier. Uh that's who he is, Mike,

(15:58):
and uh it's it's gonna be a So I'm excited
for all that. What I'm not excited for is, I
guess we gotta try this right, this gatorade?

Speaker 2 (16:07):
Yeah? Absolutely well. And here's the thing, man, this might
have its health benefits. Right. First of all, hear me out,
hear me out. Why are you having here? Outright? First
of all, red wine is supposed to be good for
I can't say good for you, but it's supposed to
be healthy in a sense of lowers a BP. That's
that's doctor talk for blood pressure. Okay, thanks' supposed to

(16:29):
make you a little bit more relaxed, thins out the
blood a little bit, you know, they say, doctors will
tell you have a glass of red wine every night
for health purposes. So you have that added bonus. Right,
you have the red wine. Plus the biggest enemy to
a long night of drinking is dehydration, so you're putting

(16:49):
those electrolytes in your body as you drink, so it
does nothing to you. Essentially, it's like an unstoppable formovable object. People.
Then I feel like this is really this might they
might be onto something, this might, this might cure everything here.
It's like Sarah, I have an open glasses of gatorade,

(17:10):
and why you get pulled over? You know, anything to drink? Well,
I had about three bottles of cheap red wine. All right,
step out of the car. Wait, and I had two
gallons of light blue Gatorade. Oh, you're free to go.

Speaker 3 (17:24):
No, you never Yo. There's there's a few things different
directions I can go to. I'm gonna go to the
one that I want to talk about real quick because
I was thinking about this because you mentioned Gatorade. I
was thinking about like upper downers. I don't like people
make espresso martinis because I feel like that you like.

Speaker 2 (17:43):
Them, like one, I'll have one, but like I don't
like like a I mean express espresso martini's have a
sweetness to it, but I'm not like a big like dessert,
like yeah, my apt that would be like an after
dinner drink for me, you know what I mean.

Speaker 3 (17:58):
Like last time I had, like I think an Irish
coffee was because I could tell your dad really wanted it.
It was right before we're going to play. Probably sure,
either him or j pay for the entire bill because
that's the Boeum way. So I was like I could tell,
like it was kind of like watching like your kid
not be told no, Like nobody else is getting ice
cream and they really want ice cream. So I was like,

(18:20):
you twisted my arm bill. I'm gonna get one too,
But yeah, dude, it like had my heart going like this,
and I'm like kind of drunk, and I was just like,
this is not good.

Speaker 2 (18:29):
We make those at the bar now with wine because
we sure, I swear to God so and there was
when we first debuted it, there was a group of
people we'll call them because they are people, but I
give you a specific group gender rather so anyway, there's
a group of women that just kept ordering. Dude. There

(18:49):
was one girl that must have had at least seven
or eight, right, like, dude, seven or eight And that's unreal.
First of all, that's close to like two bottles of one.
How do you pass out? Like with your eye don't
not even pass out, bro. My butthole was quivering watching
her drink all that stuff. Seriously, all that espresso coffee, Like,
give me a break, dude, there's that's.

Speaker 3 (19:11):
We drink coffee on the air. And sometimes that's why
I'm a little delayed by getting the pot up, because yeah,
just smell it. No ut coffee brew U No, Yeah,
check out Fast Break. They're the best coffee company out there.

Speaker 2 (19:27):
Ww do surprise you went express on Martini. Man didn't
go like Red Bull and vodka.

Speaker 3 (19:33):
I didn't go express no, your dad wanted Irish the
Irish coffee. Yeah, so I just got whatever he wanted.
But like Martini, an express Martini sounds disgusting to me.
So anyway, so I was thinking about coffee. I was
thinking about gatorade, like wah Wah. I was in wah
Wah on the other day and all the coffee was out,
but I could see it behind me, and all you

(19:54):
had to do was take the little thermos and like
put it in. Yeah, and the guy goes, yo, boss yo,
boss man, you boss man, Like, don't do that, boss Man,
Like if you ever if if you got birth, that's
on me. Don't ever touch that again. I was like,
don't ever call me boss man again. And we got
ourselves a deal. He's like okay, and I was like,
and dude was three seconds away from me dumping my

(20:15):
coffee on him. I think there's like words that people
could say that aren't curse words, but but could easily
allow me to like kind of like in a fight,
like if somebody's trying to fight to you, you could
use some type of weapon, but you can't use a
gun if they have if they have a knife, you
could use a gun whatever, like those weird rules were
I don't even know if those are real rules.

Speaker 2 (20:35):
Oh they're.

Speaker 3 (20:37):
So anyway. So like self defense, right, so like verbal
self defense. So if you're calling me out of my name,
am I allowed to escalate it? You know, because I
really wanted to tell this dude way to stick it?

Speaker 2 (20:48):
Uh, let's talk about those words, boss man.

Speaker 3 (20:51):
Yeah, chief Chief. I think I think he hit me
with the chief. Oh he went through the gauntlet.

Speaker 2 (21:00):
Us man.

Speaker 3 (21:00):
Chief.

Speaker 2 (21:02):
I can tolerate buddy. It depends on your tone, yo, buddy. Nope, yep, nope.
But I like, hey buddy, Hey boy, hey man.

Speaker 3 (21:11):
Thanks buddy.

Speaker 2 (21:12):
Yeah. I use buddy a lot and why but it's
usually like oh thanks buddy. You know what I mean.
It's like a positive not like it a yo buddy.
And I only use Buddy with people I know, like
if it's a random individual, I'm not throwing buddy out there. Pal. Yeah, bro,
don't get me started on Pal.

Speaker 3 (21:29):
Thanks a lot, Pal, Like what, well, let me tell
you something, Pal, like, uh, what else? I used to
not like it, and it's kind of grown on me
because they think it's more of like a respect thing.
Like so many people would call me like mister Mike,
and I was like, I'm just Mike, you know. Like
but now like I like it. I don't know, maybe
it's signs of getting older or whatever. But somebody's like,

(21:50):
what's up, mister Mike. I'm like, hey, how's it going?
Like I want to be mister Mike now, you know,
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (21:55):
I feel that way about Sir. I like, I still
am not crazy about it. When people are like, yes,
sir like this, I'm just like, WHOA, come on, what
are you giving me a promotion? Not sir? Just relax.
But I'm growing into it now. I'm like, yeah, give
me the respect. I want to be sir. I want
to be sir in a sense of knighted. I want
I want to be knighted like Sir Paul McCartney.

to google your name anymore. Let me tell you something.
I don't want you to do it because I don't

(23:28):
want to take any more time on this. But when
you google Michael Powers, first of all, your picture doesn't
pop up at all, which is said there's a lot
of dead people. Second of all, it's at least five guys,
five six different Michael Powers that can play the guitar,
because they're all pictured with the guitar, and then one

(23:49):
Michael Powers that looks like Wi Wilford Brimley with a
big old handlebar mustache. Michael Powers is wearing a there's
a Michael Power that's wearing a purple that's wearing a
purple top hat and a purple tank top that says
sex Squad on it. Yeah, I'm Mic Powers, all right, hold.

Speaker 2 (24:13):
On, let me put in Mic Powers in. I kind
of want to meet that other Michael Powers. Though. What
Google image is showing me? Still no Mic Powers. A
lot of guys beards though, Oh wait, no, no.

Speaker 3 (24:29):
I appreciate it. This is this has been a very
good productive.

Speaker 2 (24:34):
Hold on, I's gotta scroll all the way down here now,
I'm kidding anyway, Yeah, Google Divide Live guys, check us out.

Speaker 3 (24:43):
Hopefully I have a lot better with luck than that.

Speaker 2 (24:47):
Like, what the what's going on? Connor McGregor is running
for president of Ireland in twenty and twenty full five.
We're in twenty four, so he's got to be twenty five, right.

Speaker 3 (24:57):
Yeah, I don't know, man, Like, honestly, I think it's
just him trying to obviously just stay in the limelight.
Like I don't think he's really gonna run, but who knows.
I said the same thing about Trump. You know, whether
that's been great for this country or not. We'll let
you decide that crap. But what I could share is,

(25:23):
you know, Connor's Connor. I think it's hilarious. I think
he would win if it was a real election, too,
which is crazy.

Speaker 2 (25:30):
Have you been to Ireland?

Speaker 3 (25:32):
No? Not yet?

Speaker 2 (25:34):
Have you? No? My wife has. But I wanted to
ask that question because I'm just curious as to, like
what people think of him over there, because I don't
think he lives over there anymore. I think he lives here,
Like I want to know, is he a celebrated Irish
athlete or do people kind of mock him and just
think he's a jerk?

Speaker 3 (25:56):
No, I think they love him. I think they love him.
I think they love him the same way Philly love Ai.
I think they love him the same way. You know,
people like Trump like I honestly do like. I think
it's that kind of shock mentality I think he gets
when he's home. He doesn't get any crazy press unless
he makes it. So if they hated him, they they'd

(26:17):
probably follow him around. He got like a hit by
a bike and somebody in the guy's like, I'm sorry,
like you know, so I don't. They weren't like, oh great,
I hit him. It's finally done, you know. So oh man,
he hit an old man. He hit an old man. No,
I thought I thought he got hit by an old man.
It says he ran over somebody too. How many bikes

(26:39):
are on the room.

Speaker 2 (26:40):
I don't know, man, but I'm on Reddit right now
and someone literally, I mean this was two years ago,
so but someone literally asked, uh, you know, the Irish
people on Reddit what they think of Connor McGregor. And
the one person says, lets let's just say the next

(27:00):
time the BBC or Sky try to claim him as British,
no one will be rushing to correct them.

Speaker 3 (27:05):
Geez.

Speaker 2 (27:06):
Then that's apparently the biggest insult any irishman can receive.

Speaker 3 (27:10):
But obviously too, oh god, this is great. No, But obviously,
if you're going on to a political if you're trying
to overturn any type of government, half the country's automatically
going to hate you, especially if it's kind of like here,
where it's one versus the other. So yeah, one on one,
you already picked your value. So of course there's going

(27:30):
to be you know, at least fifty to sixty percent
in the population that now don't want you.

Speaker 2 (27:36):
During the next break, I have to read some of
these responses to you because they are the part like you.
When you read them, you read them in an Irish
accent because just the way they're written, it's like a limerick.
It's just and they're hysterical.

Speaker 3 (27:49):
Yeah, what's hysterical is that song thinking out loud from it?
Cheerin like how many memes keep coming out of it?
So like the legs don't work like they used to be.
For when he fell off of his bike and broke
his arms, You're like, man, I hope his legs still work.

Speaker 2 (28:04):
Like they used to before.

Speaker 3 (28:06):
And then like, well your will your mouth still remember
the taste of and the guy goes DZ nuts like
so that was huge. Now it's uh the I'll Love
You Till you're seventy And then like he's got a
video of him when he turned somebody one and he's
like flipping off the person walking out. So somebody wrote
He's like I generally thought it was seventeen, not seventy. Oh,

(28:29):
and so Ed wrote back, you're on a watch list. Somewhere, buddy,
I hate to break it to you. So it's pretty funny. Yeah,
So I had to share that because you know, there
are some funny guys over on the other side of
the pond.

Speaker 2 (28:42):
Oh man, that's a good question. You might not have
an answer right now because I don't, but like, think
of like a song that you used to sing, or
you used to sing the wrong lyric, like how bad
it was. I have to go back into my memory
and thing because I know there's probably a few where
I God Bless Him, Oh my god, why is it far?

(29:05):
So goddamn stupid? Wasn't It wasn't any of us, by
the way, but someone we we.

Speaker 3 (29:10):
Knew, somebody that we used.

Speaker 2 (29:15):
Was incorrect, was very incorrect with some of the lyrics
for God Bless America.

Speaker 3 (29:20):
The white with foam was why is it far?

Speaker 2 (29:23):
Or doesn't doesn't even sound?

Speaker 3 (29:25):
The oid? Why is it far?

Speaker 2 (29:29):
Why is it far? Why is what far? What song?

Speaker 3 (29:35):
Do you know? Like ask you a question when they're
describing uh, you know, America, Like let's just throw out
a trivia question in the middle of the song.

Speaker 2 (29:45):
Oh my god, we've all done it. I don't want
to sit here and laugh like we've all sang the
wrong lyrics.

Speaker 3 (29:53):
I used to do it on purpose sometimes and I
still do. Uh So, like if if I rather change
it to something, I do, But then and the song
gets further stuck in my head and then I have
to remember it's not that. But the one that I
always remembered was the Kings and Barry Bonds, so that
was mine. The Lincoln Lion King. We always thought it's
that Kings and Barry Bonds, so that was ours. Like

(30:16):
me and my brother would sing it NonStop, and my
dad would get so mad. He's like, it's it's ol John.
He's not singing about Barry Bonds. Why wouldn't he sing
about Barry Bonds? And Perry Bond's the goat like for us,
like he can sing. He was the greatest, especially back then,
Like you're like, kind of it was Bonds, Griffy Bonds,
Griffy Bonds, Griffy, and then Bonds took it a whole
nother level because he gave himself a shot.

Speaker 2 (30:36):
But I work with someone that can't stand Bonds because
for the mere fact that he just couldn't admit couldn't
admit it.

Speaker 3 (30:44):
Yeah, there's there's a pr side to this too, So
I'm sure there's people in his camp like, look at o'tani.
He'll never admit to any wrongdoing. I'll let that guy
rot in jail for the rest of his life. Even
though he gave him the money. I didn't know he
gave it. It's easy to steal millions of dollars from
somebody who has hundreds of millions of dollars. Like really,
let me test that theory out.

Speaker 2 (31:05):
So uh my my, I just remembered my like misquote
when I was like, you remember what Beatles song was it?
That was the one of your theme song? That was
a would you do if I sang it?

Speaker 3 (31:19):
Joe Crocker sing it way better.

Speaker 2 (31:21):
If it says what were you if I sang out
of tune? I always thought it was what would you
do with that sag attitude? I don't even know what
a sag attitude is, like sag, So here's what I thought.
So here's what because this is this was like a
young me, I thought, like, oh, people used to sag
their pants and their pants were lower, So a sag

(31:43):
attitude has to be a very low attitude, like a
poor attitude. And what would you do with a poor attitude. Mike,
that's a valid question.

Speaker 3 (31:50):
I originally thought when tilS was talking about you don't
scrubs like, uh, moving on? Oh man.

Speaker 2 (32:04):
That Netflix show Inventing Anna that was based off an
actual Anna Heiress Anna, Yes, but it was a fake.
Apparently the real Anna Anna Delvi or Delvey is going
to compete in Dancing with the Stars this season wearing

(32:26):
an ankle monitor because she was arrested and tried and
basically committed these financial crimes to where this is back
in twenty nineteen grand larceny and theft of services, where
she was sentenced to twelve years in prison and find
twenty four thousand dollars in order to pay nearly two
hundred thousand dollars in restitution. She was released in good

(32:48):
behavior in twenty twenty one, which I think is hysterical.
Twenty nineteen, you get sent to Jeff for twelve years
and two years later an Ja, she's fine, no, no,
two years later she was released. Five years later, You're
on Dancing with the Stars. Crime does pay ladies generally,
I mean, listen, I gotta be honest with you. She's
not terrible looking, so that probably helps a little bit.

Speaker 3 (33:09):
If they heard she was actually better looking than she
was portray.

Speaker 2 (33:13):
The chick from Ozark that was the character and she's okay,
but no this and she looks they look nothing alike.
I mean, I guess they don't really have to.

Speaker 3 (33:22):
But who would you want to play you in a movie?

Speaker 2 (33:28):
That's a fantastic question. Do they have to be like
look similar to me?

Speaker 3 (33:32):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (33:33):
Man, that limits my options here because everybody tells me
I look like Chris O'Donnell.

Speaker 1 (33:38):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (33:38):
I was thinking that, so I guess that would be
the most accurate.

Speaker 3 (33:42):
But also maybe it's portraying you in a younger state,
so like you could take younger me. Yeah, Like, who's
that guy that all the women.

Speaker 2 (33:51):
Like Channing Tatum? No, everybody loves Channing Tate.

Speaker 3 (33:55):
I don't make a name for myself. No, I don't
think it's him. It's the other one, dude. He was
in like high school musical or whatever.

Speaker 2 (34:03):
Zach Efron.

Speaker 3 (34:03):
Yeah, that'd be a pretty good one for you. I
want Leonardo DiCaprio, but not movie Leo, like the one
we see on the beach where he's like got in
shape and like just like had a rough day, maybe
five cigarettes into him. I like that's who I want
to portray me. Like he could be a little bit
cleaner in the beginning, but like towards the end, like
definitely like just beat himself, like you know what, just

(34:25):
roll out of bed, shower, shave, even shower whatever. No, no, yeah,
I shower. I showered before you got here.

Speaker 2 (34:33):
I'm saying, I know you shower. I'm just like Leo
de Cat Like if Leo Mike is not gonna shower,
oh man, Leo Mike's gonna because he doesn't matter, doesn't
have to do his hair, he doesn't even have to
can you imagine?

Speaker 3 (34:44):
Just not I just I chuckle, dude, Like he's with
a new girl every time, but sometimes his body is
not like i'd be like, you know what.

Speaker 2 (34:52):
That's what it is. He's Leo.

Speaker 3 (34:53):
He doesn't have to have a body, right, Yeah, that's
what I'm saying. Whatever, man, that's who I want, not
movie Leo one, Like legit, Leo.

Speaker 2 (35:01):
Man, you really went like top A list actor and
I picked Chris O'Donnell, I picked Robin Well.

Speaker 3 (35:08):
I used to get mad. Your your brother always used
to say that I looked like that dude from uh
and I've never seen it. I was like that zombie
movie where he's like a cop and he had like
the blonde hair. His friends kept saying I looked like him,
and I was like, I don't see.

Speaker 2 (35:24):
This zombie movie. Yeah with a cop Simon Peg, the
British guy.

Speaker 3 (35:30):
Maybe yeah, And I never yeah, I don't know. They
would always say it and I'll be like, you know what,
I'm gonna go home now. Maybe that was their way chase, like,
hey watch this, this guy walks, this guy leave.

Speaker 2 (35:41):
You know, he looked he looked like that guy that
nobody likes. Yeah, you know that guy that's so yeah, fantastic.
Let's take a quick break, guys, if Mike's got to
really rethink a lot of things in his life at
this point. Now, we're gonna take quick break. When we
come back, we're gonna give you more fake news. From now,
I'm gonna tell you exactly what I think of it,

(36:02):
in case you were ever unsure of my opinion. Divide
Live Fox Sports, The Gambler.

Speaker 1 (36:06):
The Gambler, Philly's home for all things sports gambling. You're
listening to the Divide right here on The Gambler.

Speaker 2 (36:14):
Divide Live, Fox Sports The Gambler. We didn't talk about
it at all. Actually, when we had the our one
league that we're both in the draft, our family league
two nights ago, how do you feel about you? Awful?

Speaker 3 (36:28):
Like I got like a D minus because like I
was stuck at that. Yeah, I don't. I don't like
and it. I actually went back to look and every
pass champion was the CEA or worse.

Speaker 2 (36:40):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (36:40):
So like it's the minute you draft, like if like
anybody who drafted like two stud quarterbacks, I did not.
Oh bro, Sam, They're they're gonna get an A plus
rating just based off of Fantasy points. They don't. That's
the one thing they I love CBS during the season.
I hate it during draft night.

Speaker 2 (37:00):
Yeah, because their rankings are so much different than everything else,
and they put guys you have to really scroll down
to get guys that probably should be ranked higher. That's
like my one complaint.

Speaker 3 (37:10):
You got to make mental notes of it too, be like,
oh my god, this guy's all the way down here.

Speaker 2 (37:14):
You know.

Speaker 3 (37:15):
So it was very hard and you know, trying to
commute hold not say driving, I was pulling over for
my stops and uh so it was it was very
difficult to to draft right. And I was pretty mad
at myself because I knew auto draft would also be
an absolute disaster because again your theory would not be

(37:38):
correct on CBS because you would end up with their
their top. I mean, you could have made a que
But so.

Speaker 2 (37:44):
I don't know what happened in the late round for me.
I was kind of bouncing back and forth between a
few guys, uh quarterbacks. Stop, I was bouncing back and forth.
I was bouncing trying trying to compare. There are two
different quarterbacks, and I don't know if I just didn't
keep an eye on my time or if there was

(38:04):
a glitch or what I thought I had because we
got ninety seconds. I thought I had like a little
less than a minute. I thought I had like forty seconds.
All of a sudden, like I wasn't picking anymore. I
didn't have the option to draft, and it said that
I took Justin Tucker, the kicker. So I looked at
because I was at Birt's house with Burn, I'm like,
what just happened? He's like what I thought? Maybe? I
was like, did I run out of time or something?

(38:25):
I was. He was like, it just picked for you.
I would I never I didn't have a kicker in
the queue. I didn't even click onto the kicker page
because kickers are like the last thing I draft. Dude.
I was literally I was like, I don't know why
at that moment in the draft, I still didn't draft
a quarterback. So I'd like to think it was a glitch.
And it wasn't like Auto Draft because you would think

(38:46):
Auto draft would draft a quarterback for me first before
it drafts a kicker. Nope, apparently not. I don't know, man,
Yeah it was.

Speaker 3 (38:53):
It was a rough one for sure. I was really
bummed I missed out on the You know what, did
you end up eating? Sushi? You gave in It's pretty
good too. Was it sushi or sandwich?

Speaker 2 (39:06):
It was sushi.

Speaker 3 (39:07):
Okay, it was sushi. So you didn't get your Mexican.

Speaker 2 (39:10):
I didn't get my Mexican though. I was pretty mad.
And then on top of that, I was like, hey, man,
so if you if you didn't listen last week, I
was really craving Mexican for this draft. Every draft we
ordered pizza. I wanted some different. He's got a good
Mexican spot by. I wanted Mexican. The night before he
was like, I want to order sushi, and I fought
him and it's his house. I'm like, whatever, we'll order sushi.

(39:31):
So he sends me the menu. I send him my
sushi order. You know me.

Speaker 3 (39:35):
Yeah, I love sushi.

Speaker 2 (39:36):
I can take care of it. So I said, I
ordered four rolls, four rolls and some soup.

Speaker 3 (39:40):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (39:41):
He responds with, that's a lot of sushi, just so
you know, Like, bro, did I ask for your opinion?
I think it's four rolls of sushi? Am I crazy? Here?
Do other? Do you guys not eat a ton of sushi?

Speaker 3 (39:53):
Like that's bad for your BP and your sodium BP?

Speaker 2 (39:57):
You mean blood pressure or batting practice? That's true. I
can't imagine anybody that eats four rolls of sushi and
gets out there on the cage.

Speaker 3 (40:04):
Well, two were probably for then, and two were like
five minutes later when you're hungry against.

Speaker 2 (40:13):
Oh my god, all right, guys, real quick, because you know,
a NASA story can't come up. NASA. I still can't
say it. I still can't just say.

Speaker 3 (40:21):
NASA, NASA.

Speaker 2 (40:22):
So Nasa, NASA. I get very very nasally nasally for NASA.
There's your group right there, all right, here we go.
NASA reported that there's a fallout from the asteroid smashing
dart mission that could hit her Earth, potentially triggering the

(40:46):
first human caused meteor shower. There's so much to unpack.
First of all, did you have any idea there was
an asteroid smashing dart mission? No?

Speaker 3 (40:55):
And that would have been awesome to watch, right, Like,
why couldn't they live stream that?

Speaker 2 (40:59):
Seriously, you guys are out there playing darts with like
missiles asteroids.

Speaker 3 (41:05):
Live on Netflix smashing ash.

Speaker 2 (41:07):
Dude, just to watch it, not to mention, I hope
that's not the official name of the mission.

Speaker 3 (41:14):
We're gonna smash it.

Speaker 2 (41:15):
You spend all this money, at least get a guy
there or someone that can name this problem. How about
the asteroids smashing dart mission?

Speaker 3 (41:23):
It reminds me of like a family guy where Peter's
like Lois, he's got the gun, Like he goes outside
to like shoot the old dog or something. Then old
Yeller gets the gun. He's like, don't ask how he's
got the gun. Or like when you're a kid, you
did something, you run inside and you know you did
something bad. Like one time we were throwing snowballs in
the car that was driving by happened to be a

(41:46):
cop car and we had him right in the windshield.
We ran in so quick, like this is Nasau's version
of that. It's so crazy, man.

Speaker 2 (41:55):
You can't just stop and knock on the door.

Speaker 3 (41:58):
We also we were shooting off fireworks while and the
bottle like tipped over and he was shooting at the school.
We heard the fire alarm go off and we took off.

Speaker 2 (42:08):
Dude, we remember the one time we were at that
person's house, the same person we were, and that the
same situation, and it like was in the bushes and
like house was on fire, and we we blamed Timmy.
We did not we actually, you're right, we did not.
Someone mistakenly blamed him, but we didn't correct him.

Speaker 3 (42:33):
We're like, what he did, We're like on this and
Timmy was a trooper bat he really was.

Speaker 2 (42:39):
He was like what poor guy like just showed up
to what's going with the fire over there? We're like, oh,
don't don't do that, buddy. You know what that fire.

Speaker 3 (42:49):
It was Also because like that said parents were afraid
to have a conflict with your eyes, they just took
it out on the easy tiger.

Speaker 2 (42:58):
So bad must have been this guy. But millions of
tiny space rock fragments, maybe on a collision course with
Earth in Mars. After NASA deliberately crashed a probe into
a far away asteroid two years ago, a new study reveals, uh,
the celestial shrapnel, which could start hitting our planet within

(43:19):
a decade, poses no risk to life on Earth. This
is what I hate, man, This is enough. This is
why I think this is fake, because this is another
report of some stuff that sounds really big, and then
after you read it, it's like, but don't worry, you
won't know.

Speaker 3 (43:35):
They're like, I think we're fine, Like I don't know, Like, oh,
it's fake. It's fake. The same people that made the
mistake are letting us know they made the mistake and
telling us we're gonna be fine. That wasn't us. You'll
be fine. It's a near mere flesh wound. Like I'm
not buying it for a second, dude.

Speaker 2 (43:53):
It's like you're going for a vaccine and the doctor
gives you the wrong one. Yeah, ah no, sorry, I
just gave you the wrong Am I gonna be okay?
And they're like you should be fine.

Speaker 3 (44:04):
You should drink some water. Drink some water, just go home.

Speaker 2 (44:08):
And lay down.

Speaker 3 (44:08):
Yeah, you'll be Okay, what calm in the morning, I'll
know what.

Speaker 2 (44:14):
By the way, I did this for no reason whatsoever,
and it's now worse. So but you should be all right,
it's not nothing's Everything's.

Speaker 3 (44:22):
Fine, Nasa, Yo, it's so funny.

Speaker 2 (44:27):
I want to know, Like, so, what does this mean?
We're gonna watch the meteor shower and.

Speaker 3 (44:30):
Just be cool with it? Like, first, so that's the
first meteor that's gonna hit Earth because of the human intervention.
I guess we're over one. We're over one.

Speaker 2 (44:43):
Not really a good track record.

Speaker 3 (44:45):
And also like, yeah, I just dude, there's so much
like so like it. That would be the way that
would make humans like just exactly how I think they are,
is if we caused our own to mind. Why didn't
we get a vote?

Speaker 2 (45:02):
Like why was this? Hey, we're gonna do this and
there's a chance some stuff could come down. Are you
guys cool with that? And I feel like most of
us would have been like just leave it alone, man,
is like we just want to hit it and see
what happened, you know what I mean? Like, no, man,
just just leave it alone, Like we just want to
throw this rock at this neighbor's dog and see what
you guys in No, man, we're good.

Speaker 3 (45:23):
Reminds me of so much things like in life, like
just like yeah, excellently, like break a window, stuff like that.
These guys are doing it with their lives and.

Speaker 2 (45:32):
Billions of dollars, Like come on that mission, the dart
asteroid mission whatever they called it. It costs probably a
billion dollars and we're just now they're like.

Speaker 3 (45:44):
You might everybody signed here. Yeah. When they pitched the idea,
like to get the funding for the shooting asteroids, they
were like, we're gonna play asteroids.

Speaker 2 (45:56):
It's the worst thing. These are supposed to be the
smartest people in this particular.

Speaker 3 (46:01):
They definitely had a sleepover. They all brought their own
consoles and controllers and they just started shooting into the
space like using these little remotes. Oh my, So now
Elon Musk is gonna have to save us all.

Speaker 2 (46:13):
Apparently, man, not if we can't go live on on X.
All right, guys, enjoy the weekend, enjoy the phillies, enjoy
whatever comes, and we'll see you next week. Friday, Friday
