they are will whizz.
Speaker 1 (00:12):
So yeah, it's too bad. Blood, What did you expect?
Speaker 2 (00:15):
It's a podcast called twenty five Boys Souls.
Speaker 1 (00:21):
Here we go blow it. Thank you, welcome. We'll talk
to Mark schlerett In a little bit, who I know
from ESPN, and then I follow him a lot on
social media. He's got the Stinking Truth podcast on YouTube.
Check it out. Glad to be here. And I must
start by saying, as I thought, Joe Milton sucks.
Speaker 3 (00:38):
Joe Milton's so bad, so bad.
Speaker 1 (00:42):
I just want to say, listen, I talked about this
two weeks ago. His highlight tapes are freaking awesome every
step of the way. Michigan, Tennessee, the Patriots, the Cowboys.
Cowboys trade a fourth rounder for him? Is it a
fourth round?
Speaker 2 (00:56):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (00:56):
I believe may have going to trade Lance whatever is
something similar.
Speaker 3 (01:01):
But and Jerry's saying, like, man, we got a good
one here, like seventy yard bombs.
Speaker 4 (01:07):
Dude, he sucks pretty bad.
Speaker 3 (01:09):
It's pretty bad, like preseason means nothing, right, but when
you see crap like that, it's so.
Speaker 1 (01:16):
Bad, no touch, nothing, And again we don't have touch,
we don't have arms. We can't tell it harder, softer,
We don't just know that. But I warned everybody this
is gonna happen.
Speaker 5 (01:26):
Duh.
Speaker 1 (01:27):
And I'm glad he sucks right now because Dak doesn't
need that crap. And I'm not a Cowboys fan, but
Dak doesn't need everybody screaming aboutw good the backup quarterback
is correct because you didn't really worry about that. And
even though the Cowboys had a history of their excellent
backup winning a lot of games, he's met with the
Ravens now right, you know where he is, that the
(01:47):
A plus backup, not threatening the starter, but can win
some games when he comes in. It's what you want, dude,
Milton Sterri, I don't.
Speaker 5 (01:56):
I mean Kevin said the same thing too, right.
Speaker 6 (01:58):
Like, yeah, we saw it. Yeah, and people get all
excited with the Patriots. Yeah, the Patriots. You just hear
about it because you follow a team, obviously, and you
just hear his arm. He's up Lendisen, he does backflips.
Oh my goodness, Okay, every throw is bad. Just so,
did you watch him anything?
Speaker 7 (02:14):
No?
Speaker 5 (02:15):
I can't.
Speaker 3 (02:15):
I can't watch him here, Like for some reason. Whenever
the Cowboys are playing preseason, I'm like, yes, I'm so excited.
Speaker 5 (02:20):
NFL Network.
Speaker 3 (02:21):
Then they end up showing like the Giants versus the Jets,
and I'm like, okay, I guess I'm not gonna watch
that till they show it tomorrow.
Speaker 8 (02:27):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (02:27):
But with TikTok, you can watch every snap. I watch
every snap of every player that I want to see. Really, yeah, everybody's.
Speaker 3 (02:33):
Got oh you do you search it out or how
do you do that?
Speaker 1 (02:36):
Okay, Like I've watched I watched every Dylan Gabriel snap,
watched every or snap from Week one. I watched I
watched your boy the Patriots, the tackle from l S.
Speaker 9 (02:45):
Camble.
Speaker 1 (02:46):
Yeah, yeah, well watch Will Campbell he played really both games. Yeah,
he's gonna be a stude.
Speaker 7 (02:50):
I know.
Speaker 1 (02:51):
I'm excited he's gonna be a stude excited.
Speaker 3 (02:52):
So yeah, you can watch anything. I guess if they
fed me yours, I didn't really want to see it. No, no, no,
Quinn youewers like.
Speaker 1 (02:59):
For some reason, they in practice leading up to it
in camp. Great, they were like, he's he might be
the guy. He might be the guy that's playing to it.
He's really having a bad run.
Speaker 9 (03:10):
Yeah, he doesn't look like he's having fun.
Speaker 1 (03:11):
My favorite thing though of last week was Michael Penis Junior.
Speaker 6 (03:17):
I saw your story and I didn't get it at first,
and then I saw him making it around and I
was like, oh, I didn't see them.
Speaker 9 (03:22):
I didn't see that at verse.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
All I wrote was the graphic heck of a press
conference the local affiliate in Atlanta, and obviously it was
auto correct. They wrote, Michael Penis Jr. When it's his,
you spell it p E n i X. Now. I'm
sure when you write that there's a little squiggly red
line underneath it that goes, you've misspelled this right. And
(03:45):
I'm sure they had to have some sort of meeting
going okay, cry o guy, graphic tiyes whatever it is. Yeah,
you guys, you have to know and watch for this.
It's gonna spell Penis every time your pinnix. And so
I don't think it was anybody messing with anyone. I
think they just got auto corrected. And he's up there,
(04:07):
he's talking to the table and it says Michael Penis Junior.
So funny, and so I had listeners and I don't
expect everybody to know everything, and again I didn't even
point to the fact that what his real name was.
That it was a mess up. I just wrote a
heck of a press conference, and listeners were a message
of me like, man, if I had his last name,
I don't think I think I'd change it.
Speaker 3 (04:28):
Yeah that's funny.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
Yeah, so big shout out to Michael Penis Junior. And
you know, he got that his whole life. And thank
god he was a great athlete, because imagine your name
being Poenix and being me, oh gosh, because it'd be
because panics. Right, you say his name Michael Penis, but
everybody's gonna call you Poenix when they read it. Absolutely,
they're call and roll the first time they're on the
Intercolm there, Michael Poenix, and everybody goes like Penis. And
(04:53):
if you're not a great athlete, you know you got
called Penis boy all the time. Heck, I got called that.
Now my last name's not even near penis, So I
thought that was pretty funny. We played some golf last week.
I played with my father in law, my brother in law,
and we went out for nine holes, just my father
in law and I, like on Saturday night. It was
(05:14):
pretty late, so with like six thirty. We go and
we played nine holes. He chipped in two balls from
over fifty yard two in the one round, and it's
he's a fine golfer, felt like us. And they chipped
in two from over forty fifty yards and nine holes.
By the way, everybody's mind was blown. His mind was blown.
It wasn't like a normal thing. But we're playing a
(05:34):
part three and I hit mine on the green probably
fifteen feet from it. I had door ain't a bogie
in the hole like an idiot. But he hits his
really short fifty yards in front of a trap to
the right, and so I'm like, all right, get a
couple of strokes here, and he boom right up, one
(05:54):
balanced boom right in the hole. Yeah, And I'm like, oh,
like got it, can't can't hate, can it be mad?
Like respect? I bog get the hole pissed, so whatever.
And I'm like, dude, we hardly ever get to anybody
chip in. We're like on whole seven sixty yards out,
hits a perfect flutter high ball lands and I'm like,
(06:15):
oh my god, that's going in again. You can tell
like seven feet out because it's already rolling perfect and again,
I'm like, it was. It was amazing. It's amazing. So
I've never seen that before.
Speaker 5 (06:28):
I've never done it.
Speaker 1 (06:29):
No, I've only ever chipped in a few balls ever, never,
And it's so rare that when it happens, you're just like,
I don't believe.
Speaker 9 (06:38):
That he did two wild he's Scotty Scheffler.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
Oh man, what a shot. Yeah deep roof too. That
Scheffler shot was awesome.
Speaker 9 (06:48):
But your father in law.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
Way better because it never happened Scheffler did. It was like, yeah,
it's a Tuesday guy. So played golf. DJ is really good.
Speaker 9 (07:00):
He's got a nice swing.
Speaker 1 (07:01):
He's an athlete, he played college baseball, he's a college coach.
It's so annoying. I beat him the last time we
played before that, but he like crushed. I mean it
wasn't even close. We went and played at the It
was Monday, so my club was closed. It's the one
day it's closed, and so we went and played at
the opy Opry Mills as Gaylord yeah whatever it's called
(07:22):
over the Opery Gaylord Opery. Sorry, Eddy, I don't say
it right. I got something coming for you too. And
the course is nice, it's really nice. It costs. It's
pretty yeah, but it's really nice. They do a really
good job of keeping that course up, and it's public,
so we just jumped on it. But it's like one
hundred and fifteen bucks or something a person.
Speaker 9 (07:41):
It's like any decent course nowadays. That's what it is.
Speaker 5 (07:44):
That's expensive.
Speaker 1 (07:45):
It's expensive to play golf.
Speaker 5 (07:46):
Dude.
Speaker 1 (07:47):
I'm asking a question.
Speaker 5 (07:48):
What's up? Man?
Speaker 1 (07:48):
And I gotta put my hater hat on because it's
gonna sound like I'm a hater, but you're not a hater.
I kind of am, but I'm only doing it because
one it's funny, and two I just got to know.
Go ahead, why are you posting all the stupid stuff
on Instagram? Now? Do you mean you're posting the stupidest
stuff on Instagram? Are you trying to be some sort
of weird influence? You were given a kid?
Speaker 8 (08:08):

giving Kevin krap because Kevin was posting your stuff's the
worst I've ever seen, the worst you've ever seen. You're
posted a picture of like the car line because I
really don't give a crap, But it's like all out

this influencer and it's the weirdest, goofiest stuff. So I'd
(08:28):
like to bring up I like to share a few things.
And had you not gone at Kevin, I don't think
I would even thought about it.
Speaker 5 (08:34):

thirty five bucks.
Speaker 5 (10:32):
No way, yes, way, dude.
Speaker 1 (10:35):
Let me see your phone.
Speaker 5 (10:36):

your phone that I would want to see. There will
only be some. No, I don't want this.
Speaker 5 (10:54):

it makes me about thirty bucks.

bucks a post. Guys, Yeah, nope, and I don't even care.
I think you trying to make money's great. No, look

Golf picture twenty dollars of Eddie and I come on
first day of school. This is from August.
Speaker 3 (12:08):
I don't like sixteen dollars.
Speaker 1 (12:10):
Sixteen dollars.
Speaker 5 (12:11):
It's a weird feeling. My point is, give my phone back.
Speaker 1 (12:15):
You're amplifying your money, I'm telling you, but I think
it's great. Make your money, make all the money you
can make, but don't make fun of Kevin. Whenever he's
trying something new, you're going to do it right after him.
Make sure a himpercred and.
Speaker 9 (12:28):
At least mine's consistent content.
Speaker 5 (12:31):
Whoa, I'm getting there? D salads, salad? Do you want?
Speaker 1 (12:37):
Do you want a better social media advice?
Speaker 8 (12:38):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (12:39):
Come on, pick a lane and stay in it.
Speaker 5 (12:40):
Yeah, I think I did with a salad.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
Then then all your stuff should be salads. No, no, no,
you're talking. It's tossing salitudes.
Speaker 8 (12:53):
There you go.
Speaker 5 (12:54):
That's not what you're gonna say.
Speaker 1 (12:55):
No, I was gonna say food. But then if you're
doing a lot of stuff that's not food really and
it gets fed to people that usually no pun intended,
and then it's fed to people in their feeds and
they're like, I don't I'm gonna pass on it. Then
they're not gonna feed them as much of the stuff
that they like. So that's why I do like most
of most of my stuff on Instagram is music. Most
is music. Every once in a while it's something that's
(13:16):
like never sports, because if I put on the sports
up and it goes up on my into my main feed.
The people that are usually getting the contry music stuff
and me to get some sports. They don't like it, Well,
my Interagram's not gonna feed them any more stuff because
they're like, oh, they don't like this stuff.
Speaker 3 (13:28):
Be doing Okay, I understand, but you kind of get
in a little pickle there, Like what if you meet
Mark Grace and you want to put it on your.
Speaker 1 (13:34):
Then I put it on my sports Instagram and tag
it through my stories.
Speaker 5 (13:39):
So it's no longer just gonna go.
Speaker 1 (13:41):
You can do whatever you want. Well, that's what I'm
just saying. If you want to make money as like
an influencer in a specific area, you got to be
consistent in that area.
Speaker 5 (13:49):
So just salads like I can.
Speaker 1 (13:51):
No, it doesn't matter what the just is. You don't
have to do it. I'm just giving you.
Speaker 3 (13:55):
I don't have that many John Daily stories, so it can't
be that just John Daily get you that.
Speaker 9 (14:00):
What would John Daily do?
Speaker 3 (14:02):
That's tough though, dude, how do you think of like
every day posting something.
Speaker 1 (14:06):
I've just been doing a lot of fun lists and
they they see, they crush, they crush with a bunch
of pictures. Luckily, I have you know, Brandon to help me.
Speaker 3 (14:14):
You know, What I like mostly about your stuff is
the pictures that you dig up and post, you.
Speaker 5 (14:19):
Know, to do the list. Oh thanks, I'm like, that's
kind of because some of them are old. I'm like
the pictures I haven't.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
Yeah, I gotta find like pictures Brandon to find a
good one. Me yesterday, I don't where'd you find this picture?
I made a bar or something.
Speaker 4 (14:31):
Uh, you're shooting something?
Speaker 1 (14:32):
Oh got it?
Speaker 8 (14:34):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (14:34):
I thought you might have used AI or something like
Bobby's lean.
Speaker 4 (14:37):
I use AI. That's what I did.
Speaker 8 (14:41):
That.
Speaker 1 (14:41):
That would be my suggestion to both of you. Have
new influencers.
Speaker 5 (14:45):
Kevin, Kevin's got his lane. He's just Yeah.
Speaker 6 (14:48):
TikTok is strictly just the baby stuff, and my last
video got twenty one hundred views.
Speaker 9 (14:54):
One before that was eight hundred.
Speaker 1 (14:55):
TikTok to me is just music only and Instagram. I
will put some family stuff in there, but never sports,
because once I put something up that does not get
as good of engagement or likes, then they start they
feed it less. Right, So yeah, good.
Speaker 5 (15:15):
Luck, Thank you man, Thanks for that.
Speaker 9 (15:16):
Thanks for It's a lot of work.
Speaker 5 (15:17):
It is a lot. I mean, it's not really a
lot of work. It's just a lot of.
Speaker 1 (15:20):
Thinking, Yeah, that's work, thinking, Yeah, Like you know what
I do? I set a sidetime every day to do
these lists, and so so I'll work out every day,
four days a week, and then I go and I
get in the sauna for like twenty twenty five minutes,
and every day in the sauna. Ho's you think that's
where I do? I have set aside. I'm gonna do mine.
Like you want to hear the list I'm going up today. Yes,
(15:41):
I already have it done, haven't posted. By the time
this is I'll probably posted it. But I have my

listener will be like this one and I'm like, oh
I missed it.
Speaker 9 (16:18):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (16:18):
I'll also say this two things. One, whenever you post
your salads, yeah salads, Yeah, always ask a question like
what did I miss or what can I do better?
People love giving advice, and what that does is it
creates engagement.
Speaker 9 (16:31):
The comments are always a good thing, right.
Speaker 1 (16:33):
The comments are good because then it feeds it out
to more people.
Speaker 5 (16:35):
Yeah, like, okay, so do you do that when you
post it?
Speaker 1 (16:38):
You can do it?
Speaker 5 (16:38):
Or do you do it in a comment?
Speaker 1 (16:40):
Both? I do it sometimes on the picture sometimes under

Longtime host of two television shows. One of the shows

Speaker 5 (20:36):
Dude, he was a nice guy.
Speaker 1 (20:37):
He's the greatest. He was nice to me, so nice
on Dancing with the Stars. I put him at number two.
Speaker 5 (20:41):
What's he doing now?
Speaker 1 (20:42):
I don't know being to you said what he was
a nice guy?
Speaker 3 (20:46):
Well, because I met him at Dancing with the Stars.
Speaker 4 (20:48):
I mean it made you made it seem like he
was not.
Speaker 5 (20:51):
No, he's still with us.
Speaker 1 (20:52):
Okay, how about this one country artist?
Speaker 5 (20:59):
Oh got it?
Speaker 1 (21:01):
Thomas RTT Correct, Number nine, Thomas tr And then we
have number six, And I think Kevin, you'd be the
only one that wouldn't get this one.
Speaker 9 (21:12):
Oh, come out, But.
Speaker 1 (21:13):
I think the other three would get it. I think
because the case is a musician brand as a musician,
and Eddie likes music.
Speaker 5 (21:20):
That's rude.
Speaker 1 (21:26):
Guitar wizard Eddie, Eddie tom Morello.
Speaker 4 (21:30):
Correct, you know who that is?
Speaker 5 (21:33):
Kevin?
Speaker 9 (21:34):
Yeah?
Speaker 6 (21:34):
Yeah, only because only because recently I saw a clip
of him playing on t r L. He was like
doing something with Carson Daily and it was sick. But
that's the only reason.
Speaker 1 (21:45):
Like last week, hey wink, Okay, Mark Seleareth, We're gonna
take a break, come back and talk to Mark Schlare
from I know from ESPN, but also from his podcast
on YouTube. Now talk with him next. Let's get over
now to our talk with three times Super Bowl champion
(22:07):
Mark Schlareth. Mark won a Super Bowl with the Redskins
in the early nineties, won some Super Bowls with the
Broncos in the late nineties. Grew up in Alaska, which
we will talk about, and check out his The Stinking
Truth podcast on YouTube. We get into that as well.
I'm a big Mark Claret fan. I'll watch his stuff
and I don't know super cool. So here he is.
This is Mark Schlereth. Hey, Mark, thanks for the time, man.
(22:29):
Good to talk to you.
Speaker 8 (22:31):
My pleasure, man, my pleasure. Good to talk to you
as well.
Speaker 1 (22:34):
The only state I haven't been to is Alaska. Just
throw all the touring I've done, I've been everywhere. I've
not been to Alaska. Mostly I get real dehydrated on planes.
So it's like when it comes to vacation, I just
haven't made the trip up there. Although it does seem
awesome you grew up there. Is it daylight most of
the time and then nighttime most of the time. And
if so, like, how weird is that to play football?
Speaker 8 (22:54):
Yeah? It is that.
Speaker 7 (22:55):
It is that way, Like the summertime, I mean, it's
you know, twenty hours of daylight or whatever it is,
and the further north you go, the more daylight you've got.
Speaker 8 (23:02):
So one of the cool things.
Speaker 7 (23:03):
And I always wanted to like, I don't know if
you documentary is the right word or right term for it.
But they play this land this midnight sun tournament and
the games it's baseball, and it's Alaska Minor League baseball
or Summer League baseball, I guess, one of the great
summer leagues back in the day in the seventies, you know,
the Cape Cod League took over. But they start a
(23:25):
game first pitch with no lights at eleven PM, and
it's just a really like it's a really cool up
in Fairbanks.
Speaker 8 (23:31):
They do that. So yeah, and then the winter time
is just you know, it's just dark.
Speaker 7 (23:35):
You wake up, you go to school, you walk to
the bus stop, it's pitch blackout. You get home, and
we used to run from the bus, you know, they
drop you off at the at the corner, you know,
and we'd run to the house, you know, to play
like football because you had like twenty two minutes of
daylight left before it got black again. So, but when
(23:55):
you grow up, that way just is the way it is,
so you don't know any different. And then you know,
people always ask me, would you go back to Alaska?
And I'm like, hell no, I love it and I
go visit. We were just up there last week visiting
my father for his eighty six birthday. But what I
want to live there anymore? No, Like I like the
four seasons. I like all the difference.
Speaker 1 (24:16):
What was the football culture like in high school in Alaska?
Speaker 8 (24:20):
Yeah, you know what I mean, Bobby.
Speaker 7 (24:23):
We played like seven games, you know, and by the
end of October, the snows about the fall and it's
really cold out and there's not a lot of competition.
Speaker 2 (24:33):
You know.
Speaker 7 (24:33):
It's really interesting. I had two scholarship offers coming out
of Hawaii. Both the schools came up for a summer camp,
and I was you know, I was obviously a gifted athlete, right,
so I could run and jump and do all those things,
and I was I was big. But you know, most
of the time people recruited me as a linebacker, a
tight end type of thing. Even in the professional leagues,
I got worked out as a tight end a bunch,
So it was just one of those situations where I
(24:58):
had two scholarship offers, one was to Idaho and one
was to Hawaii. And you know, for me, it was like, man,
I'm gonna go to Idaho because at least that snow's there,
and like I can't wake up to three hundred days
of sunshine or three hundred and fifty days of sunshine,
you know it just.
Speaker 8 (25:15):
Like that would drive me crazy.
Speaker 7 (25:16):
And so yeah, for me, that was kind of a
big the culture of just growing up in Alaska. I
wanted to I definitely wanted to kind of recreate that.
The other thing for me was I didn't know if
I was any good. Like I knew I was good
in Alaska, but I knew that there are not many
six foot three, two hundred and twenty pound guys that
can run like you know, run like I could, right
(25:39):
So from a competition standpoint, I just didn't know if
I was good enough to go out to a big
school or walk on to you know, at the time,
it was a Pac ten school and play. So you know,
I made the choice to go somewhere where I thought
I could play right away, and it worked out great.
Speaker 1 (25:55):
When you got to Idaho to play ball, how long
until you realized you actually could play ball.
Speaker 7 (26:00):
Pretty much right off the bat, even though I red shirted.
You know, just I knew that I could play. I
knew athletically that I was gifted right, and so I
knew that that part was okay.
Speaker 8 (26:17):
And then it just became you know, I switched from
the offensive side of the ball. I got recruited to
play center.
Speaker 7 (26:21):
Then I switched to defense just because I could run
and I could jump and I could do all those things.
So I ended up playing three years of defense. Then
I was just so injured all the time that, as
a matter of fact, I switched back to offense my
junior year about midway through.
Speaker 8 (26:35):
Played a couple of games.
Speaker 7 (26:38):
I ended up dislocating my elbow and having I have
surgery on my elbow, and the university actually retired me
from football.
Speaker 8 (26:44):
So I was done.
Speaker 7 (26:46):
And basically, you know, at twenty one years old or
whatever I was, you heal, and I started badgering them
to let me play my senior year. Came back my
senior year, played a position i'd never played, to play guard,
and ended up playing really well, you know, for the
entirety of the season. And then I got drafted. Well
I got drafted, was I showed up? This is a
great story. Marvin Washington was a teammate of mine who
(27:11):
was a.
Speaker 8 (27:11):
College basketball player.
Speaker 7 (27:12):
Came to the universy ido had fourteen sacks in one
season and was a highly touted defensive end.
Speaker 8 (27:19):
And he called me up.
Speaker 7 (27:21):
I had no agent, I had been retired from football.
I played one year on the offensive side of the football,
and one night Marvin called me up and said, hey, man,
the Bengals are coming to work me out tomorrow. Why
don't you show up and crash my workout? And so
I crashed his workout and absolutely whipped his ass and
everything forty times vertical jump, you know, the bench press,
that's the whole thing.
Speaker 8 (27:40):
And it put me on the radar.
Speaker 7 (27:42):
And you know, normally you would think that that would
probably be the last invite I got to Marvin's workouts.
He probably invited me eight more times to his workouts,
and I kept showing up, and I kept whipping his ass,
and he kept inviting me, and then eventually teams just
came to work me out. And so I don't play
it down in the end, NFL, if it's not for
my teammate Marvin Washington. But the cool thing Bobby for
(28:04):
me was I'm playing for Denver and we win a
world championship in nineteen ninety seven ninety eight Super Bowl
ninety seven season, we beat the Green Bay Packers thirty
one twenty four, win the championship, and I'm in the
training room where I spent most of my career after
the game. This is a month or so afterwards free agency,
(28:25):
and Mike Shanahan comes down to me and goes, hey, listen, man,
we're looking for a rotational defensive lineman, like a guy
that could play inside outside.
Speaker 8 (28:32):
Just a guy that fits. Sick guy.
Speaker 7 (28:34):
I didn't have to be the best guy, but it
just has to fit our culture. Guy that's going to work,
guy that's going to be part of our team. Here's
a list of about eight guys I have. Just tell me
who I should sign. Go all right, give it to me.
Speaker 8 (28:45):
I look at it.
Speaker 7 (28:46):
First name, I see Marvin Washington. I said, sign him,
and so Mike goes, okay, done, walked upstairs. Signed Marvin Washington,
and so we win the Super Bowl thirty three together
as teammates. So I don't play it down in the NFL.
It's not for my teammate Marvin Washington. Marvin Washington doesn't
win a world championship if it's not for me. So
it's just one of those things. You know, you're so
(29:08):
connected as teammates and players. So one of the reasons
I feel bad for the NCAA right now with the
nil where guys just become mercenaries. You don't have or develop,
or have a chance to develop those kind of relationships
that last a lifetime.
Speaker 1 (29:22):
You know, you bring up playing for the Broncos, and
I got a couple of things I want to talk
about here, but you're on one of those silent offensive lines.
You guys don't talk to the media right, correct, And
so is the just the juxtaposition of what you did.
They're not talking and then now you talk at a
high level a lot. Do you think you would have
been a pretty outspoken lineman, but the rules where you
just couldn't.
Speaker 8 (29:43):
Talk, probably not.
Speaker 7 (29:44):
I didn't really speak a whole lot back then, Like
I saved it all up so I could spit it
all out now. But you know the interesting thing about
playing that position, it's like this secret mushroom society. Nobody
knows what we're doing except us, and so like when
you don't talk. It made it one of those situations
where everybody wanted to talk to you as soon as
that band was lifted. You know, you went to a
(30:05):
super Bowl and you had to talk otherwise the league
find you. Nobody really was that interested in talk to
us anyhow. It was like one five minute interview and
they go, Okay, now we're done, because nobody really understands
what's going on up front. Nobody really understands that position.
So and you know, I always tell people because they
go and you're kind of a hypocrite because you didn't
speak and now you speak for a living. I was like,
(30:27):
I spoke to those guys all the time. Adam Schefter
used to cover us as a beat reporter.
Speaker 8 (30:31):
You know.
Speaker 7 (30:31):
Now he's just the I mean, he's the Grand Pooba
of all things information, right.
Speaker 8 (30:36):
But Adam and I talked every day.
Speaker 7 (30:38):
He was a good buddy of mine, and a lot
of guys in the media were good buddies of mine.
It was just always off the record, like you can't
quote me, but and so we had that relationship with
a lot of guys. It was just, yeah, it's just
an interesting time, and we did it more out of
fun and to bind us together. And you know, it
was always funny because guys we try like I remember
Tommy Nalan played center for US and we went to
(31:01):
New England and he snuck out of locker room after
a game we beat the New England Patriots and he
was from Foxboro, Massachusetts, where the New England Patriots you know, play,
and so we snuck out and talked to one of
his local reporters and somebody sent the article I mean
we had back then.
Speaker 8 (31:17):
It was a paper newspaper article.
Speaker 7 (31:19):
It wasn't on the internet, so they clipped it and
sent it to us and sent it to somebody within
the mail I think it was our offensive line coach,
and then he brought it in his evidence so that
we could find Tommy Nale in a bunch of money
for speaking to the local media. So you know, it
was a game for us, and it was just one
of those things to keep yourself entertained.
Speaker 1 (31:38):
Tenth round pick Now we don't have ten rounds now
we have seven, So I don't know in the tenth
round what day is that they what happened was that
three four days? They do it all on one day
back then?
Speaker 7 (31:48):
Yeah, yeah, it was like three days, and you know,
and I knew it was interesting because there's a great
offensive line coach in the league named Jim McNally and
he came out with Sinnati Bengals to work me out
a couple of times. And that guy was calling me
from the first round on. So he called me every
(32:08):
like every single round, like I'm standing on the table
for you in the second round, like you are gonna
be a great player in this league, and you know,
and he gave me a lot of confidence in me.
He called me every like, literally every single round. And
then finally the ninth round came around, he goes, I
think I'm gonna get you. I think I'm gonna get you,
and they didn't. They took somebody else, another offensive lineman
(32:29):
to play tackle. And then he calls me and he
is just livid. He's so pissed off. And he calls
me right before the tenth round. He goes, hey, man,
I've got you. I'm gonna get you in this round.
So my phone rings and it's uh, I just thought,
you know, it was the Bengals, and so I pick
up and it's the it's the Washington Redskins and they
(32:49):
took me two sixty three, and I know, I think
Cincinnati had to pick a couple of picks later or
whatever where they were gonna take me. But UH ended
up going to the Redskins, which just was such blessing
because you know, it's interesting how you get coached the
guys who coached you. I just I just this weekend,
I was at a celebration of life ceremony for my
(33:11):
college coach, Dan Cazetto, who passed away a couple of
weeks ago. It was one of the great people, but
a great not a good coach, a great coach. And
then I went to Washington where I was coached by
Joe Bugle, who to me is a Hall of Fame
NFL coach, and then Jim Hannafin, also kind of a
Hall of Fame offensive line you know.
Speaker 8 (33:30):
Assistant coach.
Speaker 7 (33:30):
And then I went to Alex Gibbs, the godfather of
the zone running game, who is a Hall of Famer
at that level as well, and played with guys played
in Washington with a hog.
Speaker 8 (33:40):
So I walked into a situation as.
Speaker 7 (33:42):
A tenth rounder where I was just I was invested
in right. I was like, these guys just poured into
me from a coaching staff standpoint and a player standpoint
where I just learned the game at a higher level
because I was around guys who were great, great coaches.
And I tell you what, it made such a difference
in your career. You look back on it go wow,
(34:03):
how blessed and how thankful I am to go there,
and and you know, the places I got to play with,
the people that I got.
Speaker 8 (34:09):
To play who were real You know, I always.
Speaker 7 (34:11):
Say, just because you're a professional athlete doesn't make your
professional right. Like I played for and played with a
bunch of professional football players and professional coaches, and it
made a huge difference in my life.
Speaker 1 (34:25):
Is it hard not to talk about the toxic players
that you know are toxic because you like, It's like
in music, I have friends that do music and have
friends that are athletes, and like, I know stuff. It's
hard to talk about being fully transparent because I know
they kind of suck. Like there's some really famous people
that kind of suck, and so yeah, it's tough to
not just go, yeah, this person sucks. Whenever you know
(34:46):
there's something toxic happening in the locker room, to not go, like,
this person kind of a terrible professional.
Speaker 7 (34:51):
Yeah, that and that's hard because you can't win with
those guys. And you know, I mean it like it's
to me, it's about, especially in a team sport, it's
about what are you willing to do for everybody else?
How are you willing to be sacrificial in your approach
to the game. How are you willing to put others
ahead of yourself? Because that, to me is you know, that,
(35:12):
to me is what leadership. That to me is what
culture looks like. And culture is one of those things
that everybody talks about, but if it's not lived every
single day, preached every single day, and worked on every
single day, then it just falls apart. And the interesting
thing about an NFL locker room, you know, it's fifty
three guys on your active roster. And one of the
(35:33):
really interesting things, and I don't know why this is,
but you can have the majority of your guys as
real professionals, right attention to detail, work, study, prepare all
those things, and their gravitational pull is not nearly that
of having a couple of turds on your team. You
have a couple of turds on your team, and their
(35:53):
gravitational pull. Their orbit is so much stronger than all
the professionals.
Speaker 8 (35:58):
And I don't understand why that is. It just is.
Speaker 7 (36:02):
And so you have got to do such a great
job as an organization of understanding that. And I think
one of the things that happens to a lot of
coaches and a lot of organizations, they all feel like,
you know, they're all ego driven to the point of saying, yeah,
but under my expert tutelage, this guy's not gonna be
a turd. This guy's gonna be a good dude, and
he's gonna work hard, you know, because his athletic gifts
(36:23):
are so supreme. And the bottom line, Bobby, is I
don't care how great an athlete you are, if you're
a garbage human, you are a detriment to the success
of that team. And so you've just got to understand
and you've got to be able to pull the trigger
on those guys and get rid of them. And it's
really hard to do when you see a dude that
just is so gifted.
Speaker 8 (36:42):
And there are a lot of those guys that are.
Speaker 7 (36:44):
So incredibly gifted, but if they're just not good guys,
they're just not professionals.
Speaker 8 (36:49):
Many will they will destroy your team.
Speaker 1 (36:52):
Don't you find it hard? Because I watch your watch
on TikTok, like A follow a lot of what you do.
Don't you find it hard though, to be somebody who
has the voice that you have and is known for
a lot of your authentic feelings and emotions on things
to now. I actually just say who the turds are
whenever a team isn't performing, to be like, yeah, you
know what, this person kind of sucks and it's probably
holding them back.
Speaker 8 (37:11):
Yeah, that's that's hard.
Speaker 7 (37:13):
But one of the things I always try to do,
you know, whether it's broadcasting, whether it's doing you know,
my podcast, or whether it's doing a game or whatever.
I love football, man, it you know, to quote up,
I love the Alarm in the eighties, you know the
Welsh band, and they have a line in one of
their songs it's the life blood that courses through my veins,
(37:33):
and it resonates with me because football has been the
life blood that courses through my veins.
Speaker 8 (37:37):
Man. I love football, So I love to celebrate football.
Speaker 7 (37:40):
I love to celebrate as opposed to going, well, that
guy's a turd and that guy got beat. I love
to celebrate the guy who beat him, right. I love
to celebrate the excitement and all those things. So yeah,
it's hard sometimes because you know, you have inside information
on a guy that you just know why, you know,
especially when the fans are on you and like, oh man,
you're you know, you're not giving this guy the credit,
(38:02):
or you're bitter or whatever it is, and you know
the inside scoop of why that guy moves or bounces
around or why you know teams have just grown sick
of his crap. So but I tend to just try
to leave that stuff behind. Sometimes I get caught up
a little bit, like we all do, we're all human.
But for the most part, I just try to celebrate
(38:22):
the things I love about football.
Speaker 1 (38:24):
You're in good shape compared to like alignment in game shape.
And I was watching any Given Saturday, which is the
Netflix show about the SEC. I'm big SEC guy and
the liney're talking about they just got to eat all
the time, and it's just unhealthy stuff. They just got
to put on masks. And any of the people that
I know that were lignemen are skinnier now. However, any
of my friends that played quarterback or played skill position,
(38:47):
they put on thirty to forty pounds almost immediately. Did
you find when you left the league you lost weight?
Speaker 8 (38:52):
Yeah?
Speaker 7 (38:52):
I did, I and it was intentional, you know. I
mean I was just like I fought my whole career
to be heavy, and that was a it was a
lifelong just you know, gorging myself on a consistent basis
to remain heavy enough. I used to have a limit,
my limit. My limit was actually I couldn't weigh less
(39:14):
than you know, a certain amount. So my deal, where
most guys have a limit on the top, my limit
was on the bottom because I had a tendency to.
Speaker 8 (39:22):
Get underneath my limit.
Speaker 7 (39:24):
And so you know, you'd weigh in every Thursday, and
if you weren't, if I wasn't above to eighty five, man,
it was one hundred dollars a pound, and you know,
and I it was just one of those things that
that's the way we used to do it. And you know,
so I my weight was somewhere between. I usually weighed
about two eighty eight to two ninety four somewhere in there.
(39:45):
And I had to fight constantly to keep that on.
So as soon as as soon as I got done
playing man, I dropped to two thirty like it was nothing.
Speaker 8 (39:54):
It was easy. Now it's not as easy anymore.
Speaker 7 (39:57):
I stepped on the scale the other day at two
seventy and I was like, oh, shoot, none of my
suits are gonna fit.
Speaker 8 (40:01):
So I'm on this. Uh, I'm on this.
Speaker 7 (40:03):
I went from two seventy to seventy point I think
it was two seventy points six pounds or seven pounds
on Monday to two fifty nine point three pounds on Saturday.
And uh, and I am on a I am on
a mission to get to about two forty right now,
which I do every year. It's like I get lazy
and just start eating and whatever, and then the next thing,
(40:25):
I know, I mean I could, I could be you know,
two ninety in a heartbeat.
Speaker 8 (40:29):
So it's one of those things you got to work on.
Speaker 7 (40:31):
But you're right, most of the offensive linemen, most of
them enjoy like getting away from that lifestyle, exercising and
losing the weight.
Speaker 1 (40:42):
I want to ask you one more personal questions. I
want to ask it just a few NFL questions, but uh, personally,
what does anything still hurt on you?
Speaker 8 (40:49):
Oh? Everything?
Speaker 7 (40:49):
Yeah, I mean I had I had twenty nine surgery
was when I was playing. I had twenty knee surgeries,
I had back surgeries, I had seven elbow surgeries. I
had a kidney surgery where I literally got wheeled into surgery.
Sunday night at eleven PM, checked myself out of the hospital.
Monday morning at eleven drove to the stadium and played
(41:12):
the Raiders in a Monday night game and we beat
them twenty seven to nothing. And the things you do
to yourself, there's no sane person on earth that would
do those things right.
Speaker 8 (41:22):
And there's no sane doctor on earth that would allow
you to do those things.
Speaker 7 (41:26):
But it's the NFL, and there's just a different standard
when it comes to playing, and you have to be willing.
You know, people talk about, oh, you can't play, you know,
you can't play injured, or you got to play. You
gotta play injured you want.
Speaker 8 (41:40):
To keep your job.
Speaker 7 (41:41):
You've got to be willing to do things that other
guys just aren't willing to do. And if you don't
play injured, and more importantly than playing injured, you got
to play well injured. And so like, I had an
ability during the course of my career to be like
not like almost not being able to walk on a
Saturday and going out in somebody's ass on Sunday, and
(42:01):
and that was that was a challenge, and it was
one of those challenges that I accepted and you know,
and reveledon like that was I was proud of my
ability to play well injured and just go out there
and do what I had to do and sacrifice, make
that sacrifice for my teammates. So, yeah, do my knees hurt, Sure,
does my back hurt? Absolutely? Do my elbows hurt?
Speaker 5 (42:23):
Yeah?
Speaker 8 (42:24):
To my shoulder shirt, uh huh.
Speaker 7 (42:25):
But one of the things that you have to understand
is that I've known nothing but pain from the time
it was eighteen years old. So you put my body
on somebody else, it's my age and they're checking themselves
into the hospital. To me, it's just the way it is,
just the way my body is, Like it's I've grown
accustomed to it. I'm used to having pain and it
(42:47):
doesn't affect me, I think like most people do, because
it's all I've known. Like it's all I've known since
I was eighteen. Like sleeping through the night, I don't
know what that feels like. I haven't done that. I
can't do that. I wake up all the time because
something hurts and it's just the way it is. And
so I don't whine about it or complain about it.
I don't worry about it. You know, people are all like, oh,
(43:08):
what about the concussion issues. I don't give a crap,
Like I'm doing fine if if that that that happens,
you know, if if you know CTE or whatever I
do happen. TO believe that your body's got unbelievable ability
to recuperate, right, I believe that you have enough plasticity
and enough connectivity in your brain that if you're constantly
using it and you're working, and you're doing those things,
(43:30):
I mean, I think you'll overcome some of the issues
that you've done to yourself, just like you have with health.
And I watch a bunch of guys that I know
play myself. You know, I don't use drugs, I don't
use alcohol. I don't use that stuff.
Speaker 8 (43:44):
So I think it.
Speaker 7 (43:44):
You know, I exercise, I do all those things. I eat, right,
So I think all those things, all those things kind
of manifest to good health, even brain health and all
those things. So like I just don't sit around and going,
oh woe is me? I'm not a victim. I don't
worry about it. I would do it all over again.
And and I don't make excuses for the NFL. I
(44:05):
don't like, you know, people always talk about safety in
this We signed up for it, most of us, almost
all of us, would do it again. And some of
the best men I know, some of the greatest fathers,
some of the greatest leaders, some of the greatest you know,
spiritual advisors that I know, played in the NFL.
Speaker 8 (44:22):
And so I don't I just get to.
Speaker 7 (44:24):
The point where I like a lot of times people
just want to go, oh, football concussions equals you know,
freak out and ruin your life or you know, or
or do something dramatic to your family.
Speaker 8 (44:37):
I don't buy into that.
Speaker 7 (44:38):
They don't study the effects of depression.
Speaker 8 (44:42):
You know, what is your identity?
Speaker 7 (44:44):
When you have an identity as a football player, and
it gets taken away from you, like anything in life like,
that's hard to deal with. And so if you put
your identity in what you do for a living, when
it gets taken away from you, and it will, you
will get pink slipped, outsourced, you will get you know,
a cut of supple land, whatever the case may be.
If your identity is in that, then you're gonna suffer
(45:05):
some depression. How does depression affect your brain and all
those different things.
Speaker 8 (45:08):
So I'm just not a victim. I like, hey, man,
it happens. It works.
Speaker 7 (45:12):
You know, I had a TV show on Fox that
just got dumped. You know, I just got fired. So
what I'm in New York packing up my apartment. That's life. Man,
It happens, and so we move on, we try to
figure out what's next.
Speaker 1 (45:25):
All right, let me ask you one football question.
Speaker 8 (45:27):
I have.
Speaker 1 (45:27):
I keep this Bronco helmet on my desk.
Speaker 5 (45:28):
Here.
Speaker 1 (45:29):
I got a bow next signed Bronco helmet. Pretty slick, yeah,
pretty shiny. You think they can win the AFC West?
Speaker 7 (45:35):
Oh yeah, hey man, they're an outstanding football team. So
I was at their scrimmages on Thursday with the Arizona Cardinals.
So I reached out to a couple of guys I know,
a bunch of guys on the staff of the Arizona
Cardinals offensive coordinator Drew Pensing. I asked him about him
and goes, man, this defense is unbelievable. You're not running
the ball on the Denver Broncos. They can shut down
(45:55):
the run make you one dimensional. So that's a really
good place to be in their defensive back field, you know,
with Patsertan, with Riley Moss, with Bear and the kid
they just drafted in the first round with McMillan.
Speaker 8 (46:08):
I mean, they're they're legit.
Speaker 7 (46:10):
So they've got a really good chance to be great
on the defensive side. And then I'm talking to Jonathan Gannon,
who's their head coach, former defensive cord in the league,
and I was like, hey, man, just offensively bo Knicks
like bo Nicks, you know, because last year there was
a lot of narrative out there that the defense led them.
They never beat, you know, a good to I think
they beat one team with a winning record. So it
was more like, hey, bo Knicks was getting drug along
(46:33):
by the defense. So I said to Jonathan Gannon, what
do you think bo Knicks Just Bo Nicks. Forget about
the defense. He said, bon Nicks will lead this team
to the playoffs. Like that's how good bon Nicks is
in year number two. So they're deep, they're excited. Talk
to Sean Payton a bunch about them, and I tell
you what, man, they've got the right culture. They've gotten
(46:54):
read of a bunch of guys that just didn't fit
what they were trying to build. That were good football players,
just not the right guys. And I think they've got
a really great feeling about who they have involved in
their football team.
Speaker 8 (47:05):
Right now.
Speaker 1 (47:06):
We were talking about before you came on The Stinking Truth,
which is your show, and now that football season is back,
thank god. Do you find it's just easier to do
a show now than trying to figure out what to
talk about?
Speaker 7 (47:17):
Yeah, you know, there's so many I mean, the NFL
is a gift to keep song given it. You know,
there's always They've done a great job of making it
relevant three sixty five, you know, and so there's always
things to talk about. But now when you get into
you know, trying to create on YouTube your podcast, you know,
and I've just done it is kind of fun. But
(47:38):
now I look at it like, hey man, this could
be the next thing that you know, you actually make
a living doing. And so, you know, some of the
breakdown stuff and getting in depth and creating benchmark segments
and some of those things educating people have this desire
I find to actually know about football like the general public.
Speaker 8 (47:58):
It's really interesting.
Speaker 7 (47:59):
You're broad asking a game, and you know, I speak
football language, so I'll say things and my producer will
get my ear going. Nobody in America knows what that means.
And I'm like, what do you what are you talking about? Like,
you know, everybody knows you can't help kick a four eye.
Speaker 5 (48:12):
I don't even know what a four eye is.
Speaker 8 (48:13):
You know. The producer says, like, what do you mean
to know what a four I is? You don't speak English, No,
you're speaking Japanese.
Speaker 7 (48:19):
So, you know, to be able to educate a fan
base and to still have fun and be entertaining, but
still really bring football to life for people, I think
that's what.
Speaker 8 (48:29):
You know.
Speaker 7 (48:29):
I've looked at this opportunity to say, hey man, I've
got to take this from something that I just doink
around with on the Stink of Truth podcast on YouTube
and make it something that's that's you know, more more
appealing to a vast majority of people, and something that
you can, you know, chew on and digest and learn
why you're having fun and being entertained. So that's what
I'm going to try to do. I don't know that
(48:50):
I'll do it well, but you know what, I'll give
it a shot you.
Speaker 1 (48:54):
Guys check out. We were talking about it earlier, but
the Stinking Truth podcast with Mark Mark, I'm a big fan.
It's super cool to have on. I know you got
a busy day today and now the football's back, it's
extra busy. But thanks for spending some time with us.
And I'll keep following. And I don't know, I'm betting
on the Broncos. Can I even say that to you?
Speaker 5 (49:11):
Yeah?
Speaker 7 (49:11):
You could, Okay, yeah you could say, Hey, man, put
what's the what is the what's the number?
Speaker 8 (49:16):
Put?
Speaker 7 (49:16):
Go on the over? Pound the over, man, pound the over.
That's what I'm telling you. It is a pleasure, Bobby.
Anytime you need me to break anything down across the league,
you just reach out.
Speaker 8 (49:25):
Don't hesitate.
Speaker 1 (49:26):
Appreciate you, Mark, have a great day.
Speaker 5 (49:34):
Hey.
Speaker 1 (49:34):
So we talked about this on the show and Brandon
was paid forty bucks.
Speaker 4 (49:39):
Forty bucks?
Speaker 1 (49:40):
Was that what it was? That's it to write this
song for the Cubs, Except he was just paid forty
bucks for every song that he wrote, and they just
picked that up and it was it was played where.
Speaker 13 (49:49):
It's played the two thousand and seven WGN before every
Cubs game that year, and then they started playing it
when a Cubs player would hit a home run.
Speaker 1 (49:58):
And how much you get paid for it?
Speaker 4 (50:00):
Forty bucks?
Speaker 1 (50:01):
Not every time, No, you got paid one time.
Speaker 4 (50:05):
And I didn't write it.
Speaker 13 (50:06):
I was just I was hired as a singer and
they were like, yeah, we're pitching this to WGN, and
you know who knows if it'll get picked up.
Speaker 1 (50:15):
And so you would sing stuff they would send you.
Speaker 4 (50:17):
Yeah, yeah, I would go into this.
Speaker 13 (50:19):
I would go into the studio and sing like, you know,
ten jingles.
Speaker 1 (50:23):
Four hundred bucks a day.
Speaker 4 (50:25):
I mean it was like once every three months.
Speaker 1 (50:27):
Oh yeah, that's four hundred bucks every three months. Yeah,
that's tough job. We have a part of the song.
Speaker 13 (50:34):
Yeah, So I went through all my emails and I
could only find it.
Speaker 4 (50:39):
It's like the intro of the song.
Speaker 13 (50:41):
You can you can you get a pretty good idea
of the corniness of it.
Speaker 1 (50:45):
And they played this for many times and a lot
of places, and he made Mike, you have it, give
it my friends.
Speaker 12 (51:09):
What happens, Yeah, we'll.
Speaker 13 (51:12):
Go to.
Speaker 5 (51:17):
Man, I want more.
Speaker 1 (51:18):
This is a year. What's a little bit at the end? Okay?
And it was not it was it was it rarely
was I think because I'm a Cubs fan. I watch
if not a little bit of all the games, most
a little bit of all the games. And the Brewers
(51:40):
don't lose. They lost last night finally, less think of
two nights ago they didn't lose. They won like fourteen
in a row. The Cubs are like seventeen over five hundred,
maybe sixteen or seventeen over five hundred, and they're they're
like the wild They're like eight games back.
Speaker 5 (51:52):
Yeah, I have the Brewers crazy.
Speaker 1 (51:54):
It's crazy. The Brewers aren't losing. I don't even hate
the Brewers because they're a small market team.
Speaker 5 (51:58):
Are they the rival?
Speaker 8 (52:00):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (52:01):
St?
Speaker 1 (52:02):
Louis, But I mean they're not the rival boocause Saint
louis Is. But also, we just paid their manager a
bunch of money to come counsel, to come manage the couple,
and he's doing a great job. But the Brewers are
killing it right now. So Brandon, play the song warm
you know, Casey, I see, did you write a song?
Speaker 11 (52:23):
I wrote a song?
Speaker 1 (52:24):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (52:24):
Or what for the Jets for? You know? Okay, what's
happening here? Yeah? I did it for.
Speaker 11 (52:32):
Fun, but I thought, you know, we could play it.
Speaker 5 (52:33):
It's the same thing.
Speaker 1 (52:37):
So you didn't know the Brandon thing.
Speaker 11 (52:39):
I did not know crazy because he was even here
to God.
Speaker 1 (52:42):
But he sees the clips, but he edits the clips.
Speaker 5 (52:46):
He's always here.
Speaker 1 (52:49):
Okay, So you wrote this song completely unrelated to us
talking about Brandon writing fort.
Speaker 10 (52:55):
Yes, when this is just about, you know, the pain
and the suffering that I've endured as a Jet fan
for the last fourteen years, that I wrote.
Speaker 5 (53:01):
A song about it.
Speaker 1 (53:01):
And what's your goal with this song?
Speaker 10 (53:03):
Uh, just to hopefully give a little motivation of the team,
you know, just in fields, this is our year.
Speaker 1 (53:09):
This is when you say that though that's the cults,
this is oe. He got to go on the field
and do that with the whole like choir, with the
whole case. You guys don't see the Colts guy.
Speaker 5 (53:23):
No, no, I think you're talking about.
Speaker 1 (53:26):
Yeah, you guys don't watch I don't know sports we do.
Speaker 5 (53:30):
What are you talking about?
Speaker 1 (53:31):
Okay, thet he's done it for all last season. The
cheerleader showed up his house. This is our year. This
is our team. The Coult singer, the kids, the guy
at home who is terrible singer. No, he's gone viral
multen No, No, I haven't. Okay, so let me play
Casey's and then I'll come back to that. Get TikTok up?

How long is it?
Speaker 4 (53:53):
Mis a minute and a half?
Speaker 1 (53:54):
We're not can play a minute and half of it?
I can posit throughout or whenever you want me to.
But okay, I haven't heard this.
Speaker 5 (53:59):
Let's get through the second verse.
Speaker 1 (54:00):
At least I will see TV. All right, go ahead.
Speaker 12 (54:04):
For the longest time, Jets have none made the playoffs
in some time, fourteen years.
Speaker 5 (54:16):
It's such a crime.
Speaker 1 (54:20):
Will this shit be the same?
Speaker 12 (54:23):
Can we reach the playoffs?
Speaker 14 (54:25):
Sadshine, we haven't been there for the long time.
Speaker 8 (54:35):
I've seen a lot.
Speaker 3 (54:36):

Go cold.
Speaker 1 (56:00):
It's like his own little microphone at his house and look,
it ain't good, but it's gone viral so many times.
And then the cheerleader showed up at his house to
do it with him, and then he did this on
the field last week. They've embraced him, which is awesome.
Speaker 5 (56:15):
It is cool, good for him. So is that what
Casey's looking forward?
Speaker 1 (56:19):
What if Casey doesn't know that's what people think of that?
Speaker 9 (56:21):
Or like, Casey, if they invited you out, would you
sing it?
Speaker 5 (56:26):
Absolutely?
Speaker 1 (56:27):
I don't think they'll be inviting you out now, the
coked out coach part probably not. You know, he's right enough, Mike.
I think we're good.
Speaker 5 (56:35):
Yeah, we're good, all right.
Speaker 1 (56:36):
Thanks to Mark Schlare, thanks to Brandon. I feel like
give him another forty bucks just for the sake. Hey,
