Speaker 1 (00:38):
It depends on the agent.
I think there's some profanityin some of these episodes.

Some profanity only from you, not me.
Probably a good point.

you.
And thank you for staying withus and sticking with us, thank
you so much Right.
So let's Andrew.
What are some of the topicsthat we will be touching today?
Definitely hit up theThanksgiving weekend.
Thanksgiving weekend Allfootball games NFL, the college.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
We got NBA action.
We got the CFL crownedchampionship this past Sunday.
We got some baseball news.
We got popular culture newsright, we definitely do.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
We got some news, some things you want to talk
about and got a little bit offun topic at the end here.
Andrew, it's a surprise I getto educate you a little bit, but
we'll keep it going.
So, first on the docketThanksgiving games.
They happened.
You watch.
You didn't watch any of them, Iwatched some of them.
The first game on the docket Ididn't really, I wasn't really
(02:15):
paying attention to, but it wasthe Lions.
It was a Lions again.
Lions and Packers, lions andPackers.
Speaker 1 (02:22):
And everybody picked the Lions.
Everybody before I went forthat everybody had the Lions
picked and nobody picked thePackers.
Speaker 2 (02:29):
Of course not.
How could you have picked thePackers?
Jordan Love was playing likehot garbage.
Every game, the first, you knowfirst part of the game he'd
play decent.
He wouldn't play decent in thefirst part of the game, which is
a scripted part of every NFLgame, where you know you know
where the ball's going and you,you know it's predicated on how
(02:51):
the defense plays, but you knowwhere you want the ball to go.
He delivers the ball.
In the second half he doesn'tdo such a great job, but all in
all, jordan Love played out ofhis mind.
He played like a pro-voguecaliber quarterback.
I was shocked.
I was surprised the Lions triedto do you know they tried.
They tried to have a comebacklike they did against the Bears,
(03:14):
but it didn't work.
They ended up shootingthemselves in the foot.
The Packers defense was goingafter Jared Goff.
They were just hitting him,causing turnovers after
turnovers.
Are the Packers back?
Is Jordan Love going to be thenext heir to the throne?
Is he going to carry this short?
No, no, no.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
What happened was is the Lions finally became the
Lions?
Speaker 2 (03:37):
They just are not allowed to have anything good.
Are they part of the fake Heidiclub, as Colin would call them?
They look good, but as things,as the things get into the
picture of it everybody wasrooting for Detroit and Dan
Campbell the city.
Speaker 1 (03:51):
It's because the last time they've been anything
relevant this guy I think you'dbelieve was 1962.
They had a record like thisgoing into the Thanksgiving game
, and so it's a really nice,feel good story.
The problem is I don't knowwhat they did to the football
gods those decades ago, but theyare not allowed to have nice
things.
So the fact that Jordan Lovecame in there to Detroit, that
(04:15):
Madhouse sold out Fordfield andjust dumped on them from the
first quarter on Well, I feel itwas a constant team effort
because there was turnovers,that defense to the house.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
Bad things are going to happen to them and there was
a.
I mean, football is a momentumsport, for sure.
When everything starts, onething starts going downhill,
everything starts crashing.
That I believe.
That is.
I believe what happened withthe Packard, what you mean with
the Detroit.
Speaker 1 (04:44):
Lions, you can analyze it all you want, but at
the end of the day, the badthings are going to happen in
Detroit, because that's whathappened.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
Okay, well, let's hope bad things don't happen to
Detroit too often.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
Nobody wants them to because everyone's excited for
them.
Nobody wants them to.
Speaker 2 (05:00):
But they're just not.
So I'm sitting here happeningat Tiffany.
This is the year where it feelslike it's topsy-turvy.
Everything is just turnedaround.
The Lions are good.
Oh man, you know that's that's.
Speaker 1 (05:11):
that's.
The Lions are good.
You're on to something.
With that I mean really,because this year has been very
interesting the Lions are good.
Speaker 2 (05:19):
What's it called who else?
The Lions are good, the Brownsare good and they'll be good
teams.
Speaker 1 (05:25):
The Browns also have their injury quarterback, and
now they have to play?
Speaker 2 (05:28):
Yeah, no, they do.
They pulled off a game withtheir backup, they pulled off
two games with two backups.
Well, they beat the Steelers,they beat the Steelers, they
beat the 49ers.
Yeah, but but then wasn't theSean playing that game though?
No, no, no, not against the49ers.
It was PJ Walker, you're right,you're right.
So it's like topsy-turvy.
(05:49):
The Browns and the Lions aregood, and that usually rarely
ever happens.
And now here it is, it's beenfed on our platter.
I mean, something for sureterrible is going to happen, and
the Lions are good, the Brownsare good, but Kansas City is so,
so they're manned the secondhalf of every game.
(06:10):
Yes, why do you think that is?
Speaker 1 (06:12):
Is it because Patrick Cohn's cost way too much money?
They can't really spread thatmoney out for far too long to
compliment them.
If he had a great receivingcore, it would be a wrap.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
So yeah, Mark has vowed that's cantaline Cash
those damn balls.
Stop doing what you're doing.
It's crazy.
Speaker 1 (06:30):
No, I mean, they would probably be on the feeder
right now, but right now theDolphins actually took over the
first seed and the AFC.
But of course Kansas City alsoplayed this Sunday and Kansas
City holds a tiebreaker with theDolphins because they're going
to beat them.
Dolphins have to make sure thatthey kind of went out, which
they probably won't, becausethey haven't really beaten
(06:51):
anybody that's got a above 500record.
Speaker 2 (06:55):
So around NFL right now, people are blaming Aaron
Rodgers for the Jets sucking.
Why were they blaming AaronRodgers?
Well, they're blaming AaronRodgers because Aaron Rodgers
decided I'm going to go to theJets, but, jets, before you get
me, I need you to get RandallCobb for me, I need you to get
Nathaniel Hackett for me, andNathaniel Hackett's not known to
(07:16):
be an impressive play caller.
It's been like one or two timesthat Nathaniel Hackett's been
seen as crammed in like a cramp.
Why do you think, aaron?
Speaker 1 (07:26):
Rodgers is so high up on him Because that's how we
got the Denver job.
Because they were hoping to getAaron Rodgers that didn't
happen.
So then he goes to the Jetshoping to get Aaron Rodgers that
did happen.
But why do you think there'ssuch a big tie with him and
Nathaniel Hackett?
Speaker 2 (07:38):
What's his deal with him?
Sometimes it's just some people.
I don't know the inside scoop,but sometimes it's just some
people that you like and you getalong with so well that you
want to bring them with youwherever you go.
Speaker 1 (07:49):
You're there to win some games, not hang out with
your best buddy.
Speaker 2 (07:53):
Well, aaron Rodgers has won a Super Bowl, won
multiple MVP's 13 years ago.
Well, he's still won a SuperBowl.
He's never.
He hasn't even been back.
You can never take that awayfrom him.
You're right, but he's nevereven been back.
He can never take that awayfrom him.
That is all.
He's a Super Bowl champ for therest of his life and a
(08:14):
four-time league MVP for therest of his life.
Speaker 1 (08:18):
So hold on.
Can I cut you off for a second?
So I'm watching the got theMichigan Ohio State game preview
on right now.
Right, michigan's wearing theirblue on blue.
I don't like that.
Why you got to wear your bluepants.
This is the biggest game on thecalendar, one of the biggest
games in all of college calendar.
You got to wear yourtraditional, you know, blue
jersey yellow pants.
Get the classic helmet.
(08:40):
That's what I want to see.
This is what I'm upset aboutsports now.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
Players win the game.
It's not uniform.
Speaker 1 (08:45):
Yeah, you're missing.
You're missing an nostalgia forthe fans, right?
So like it's.
So, for example, like if I wantto see, if, if I want to see,
if if there's a Laker Celticgame on TV you know the games in
Boston I'd love to see theBoston where they're white
jerseys, lakers, where you knowthe purple jerseys makes you
kind of reminiscent of like theold NBA files.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
Taking it back to the old school.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
Yeah, in the 60s or 70s you know what I mean.
Like, I like that.
It's like instead the Celticsgot to wear their black jerseys
and then the Lakers are going towear their like throwback baby
blue jerseys and you're likedude, this is some B Like, go
wear BS.
Yeah, it's BS, man.
So you know, if you want to wearthose jerseys, wear, for you
(09:25):
know garbage teams, you know,like nobody really cares about
you know, like when you get thehigh profile matchups, wear the
jerseys that like kind of cangive the, you know, 75 year old
fan like that nostalgia.
I've always seen they're likeeven back when he was a kid
watching these games.
And you know, because those areclassic uniforms, they never
(09:45):
change them.
They're like South state andMichigan never really changed
their uniforms, their styles andsame helmets and the same
jerseys and stuff like that.
This is my little rant onsports and you know so.
Anyway, I just got into theblue, the blue pants.
Yeah, I'm being petty right now.
I get it.
Speaker 2 (10:02):
But Michigan with the , you're being a back of my day
guy.
Yeah, come on.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
You know where?
Where would you go?
Where are that good stuff?
Speaker 2 (10:10):
Where that stuff that brings the soldier to people
that you know awakens theemotions.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
That's the problem with the NBA.
They have too many jerseys now.
There's no more home and awayjerseys, it's just everything,
whatever goes.
And then we have city connectcity jerseys.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
That got midnight jerseys, that got you know
whatever jerseys you know it'scapitalism and you got to find
ways to make money and they'reall making money and it's not
like it's making anybody morehappy.
If people are interested inthose jerseys, you'll go out and
buy them.
Speaking of the city connectand this down the third, the NBA
.
You got Mr LeBlanc Jamespopping off.
(10:45):
He has 39,000 points the onlyperson to do it.
Speaker 1 (10:50):
Well, of course, at this point, because he's past
cream of little jubar, so he'sthe number one.
So everything he adds at thispoint is just yeah, it's all
adage, which is great for him.
No, it's going to break thisrecord Go ahead.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
Well, for that, for that people are.
People are saying that LeBlancJames is not an alpha.
He's more of a past first guythan you know score.
They all been saying that.
Really Right, he's also a damngood score if he holds the
record Agreed and there'snothing you could take away from
(11:21):
him.
Leblanc James is forever andever etched in our memories and
our lives and history as thebest score to ever do it.
Speaker 1 (11:31):
He could average 40 points of people, no one could
stop him.
It's a free train, but you knowhe plays the game Like you know
, if there's someone who's old,he plays a team game and he's
trying to get his teammatesinvolved, which is essentially a
great thing.
So they say he doesn't havethis killer instinct like Colby
or Michael, you know it's like.
I mean he could take the ballwith the basket as much as they
did.
He can, he doesn't.
(11:52):
He's a bigger body than they do.
He's a bigger body than theyare.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
Yes, yes, was he 260?
He was a big LeBron.
Speaker 1 (12:02):
Choo choo.
Look, he could score at Will ifyou really wanted to.
But he likes to get histeammates involved.
That's good to get yourteammates involved.
Speaker 2 (12:10):
That's what everybody likes playing with LeBron Right
?
Yeah, it's good to get yourteammates involved Absolutely,
because you know when you needthem.
You can count on them.
They can.
Speaker 1 (12:17):
He took he helped the Cavaliers with a championship.
The Cavaliers have been to thefinals five times because of him
.
Five the Cavaliers who used toplay in Richfield, ohio, which
is like a half an hour outsideof Cleveland.
That's what the old arena usedto be.
It was the ugliest lookingthing you've ever seen in your
life Ohio.
Now it's in the middle of justlike.
If you go visit that site, it'sjust a field.
(12:38):
You would have never haveguessed there was an arena there
.
There's a building there.
That franchise he took thatfranchise to five, five, ida and
Finals.
He's amazing.
Speaker 2 (12:47):
He is definitely amazing.
So, andrew, yes, did you watchany of the CFL championship?
I did no.
Speaker 1 (12:53):
You didn't.
I didn't watch it.
But you know why didn't watchit?
Because the CFL couldn't strikea deal with any of the networks
to broadcast the game.
Oh, so it was on a streamingservice which I don't get.
I was trying to find it on myphone, couldn't get it, so I
literally missed the whole game,and I usually never missed the
(13:13):
game.
I really enjoyed the the greatcup championship.
I mean.
Speaker 2 (13:17):
well, they say the skill levels on par with our
skill with the people in there.
But it's just that these areguys, you know For sure.
Speaker 1 (13:24):
But it's fun.
It's a look.
At the end of the day, you takeit for what it is.
They play three downs insteadof four.
Their fields much wider andlonger than ours, I get it Well.
The end zones are bigger.
I think it's still 100 yards,but the they use every part of
the field.
Yeah, so which it sucked.
Missing the game because itturned out to be a really good
(13:47):
game Came down to the lastminute.
Montréal scored a touchdownvery late in the game to take
the lead over Winnipeg, who Ibelieve had lost last year also.
Wow, they lost, they barelyheld, they didn't hold on and
they lost again.
Speaker 2 (14:04):
Is Winnipeg going to be the Buffalo Bills of the CFL?
Speaker 1 (14:07):
No, make it four times, because they've won some
championships Okay, but it'sbeen their back to back losers.
Oh, that's garbage.
But Montréal won it.
Nobody had picked them to evenmake the playoffs, which I think
.
In CFL, only two or three teamsmissed the playoffs, so there's
like 19.
They need an expansion.
Quebec City should be one,because I don't think a land or
(14:30):
I don't think, I don't thinkNova Social is going to get the
game.
Anyway, I digress.
But yeah, we got the.
So they won the championshipfirst time since 2010.
That was awesome and I'm hopingthat league can start to grow,
because I think it's.
I think it'd be fun if Canadaactually had like a league that
you know they, their fan base isreally cute, but I think they
are only like three million toactually watch the game out of a
(14:53):
population of 50.
Speaker 2 (14:54):
I think it is Canada's hockey town.
Speaker 1 (14:56):
It's not You're right .
Yeah, I know I get it, but youknow that's not like.
Speaker 2 (15:02):
It's like hey, let's go watch cricket in India, let's
go watch basketball should bebaseball in India.
Speaker 1 (15:06):
Yeah, I think they had the numbers, I think last
year for for how manyviewerships people in America
watched it the CFL last year andI think that's for the
championship.
I think it was like a hundredthousand people.
I thought I was like one ofthem.
Speaker 2 (15:20):
There you go.
Speaker 1 (15:21):
You have very special , few, yeah, the few the special
, but you didn't promise that.
The CFL like, really they'renot very good.
Like, first off, I have no ideawhat an alohuida is.
You know, for Montreal that's ateam name.
The Toronto Argonauts I meanthese are names have been around
for a long time.
I think Argonauts is like anold Greek mythology ship, I
believe.
Probably Interesting nameEdmonton Elk was.
(15:45):
They changed from the Eskimosbecause that was like their.
You know, like ClevelandIndians they got rid of.
So Eskimos they got rid of,which was Edmonton Elk was
always a much better name togive.
So I like that name.
And they play an old stadium.
Their owner wants a new stadium, which they need because the
stadium's ugly Same with Calgary, so it's ugly.
They have these really old,outdated stadiums.
(16:06):
Like Hamilton has a new stadiumwhich is really pretty,
winnipeg, saskatchewan.
They have a really nice stadium.
They kind of need to kind ofdress up the league a little bit
.
Ottawa has a franchise and theyrecently got and they named the
team the Red Blacks, the RedBlacks.
Why is that?
Anybody know what the effort ofRed Black is?
(16:27):
Because I have no clue what aRed Black is.
Canadian listeners, let us knowDude seriously, this is the
stupidest name in almost allsports.
Like you can't call yourselflike dude.
You're not going to callyourself a Red Black.
You're not going to callyourself like dude.
Even the Ottawa Otters would bea cool name.
Like you know, have a coolcartoon like make a little
badass or something.
Speaker 2 (16:43):
You're going crazy here.
The Red Blacks, let's get offthat topic.
The Buffalo Bills changeoffensive coordinators.
What are your thoughts on that?
Speaker 1 (16:52):
I like Ken Dorsey.
I have you know, he's part ofthat one of my all time favorite
teams of the era of, like the2000, 2002, you know that, three
years of my new hurricanefootball.
No you, I love that era, so Imean I have a special place in
my heart for him.
But I was really rooting forhim.
(17:13):
But they had to make a change,just like, and then they put up
how many was it?
37, 38 points against the nearjets?
37.
, was it 37?
I thought it was more than that.
No, yeah, they put up a lot ofpoints on them after they let
Ken Dorsey go.
So I don't know what the dealis.
I don't know if it was him orwhatnot, but if they struggle,
(17:37):
Shawn McDermott's the next oneto go.
I said after that.
I said this after the playofflost at Kansas City Chiefs, when
they lost the game with that 13seconds to go and they allowed
Kansas City to drive the field,get that field goal, win it in
overtime, I said at that momentnot that there is anything wrong
with Shawn McDermott, I wouldhave fired him on but you had
number one defense in the leagueand you let Kansas City drive
(18:00):
the field and tie the game upwith 13 seconds to go with your
number one defense.
So I find him so.
Speaker 2 (18:06):
I think I think when Joe Brady got in as OC, yeah, he
got the team playing, he gotthe offense playing more, you
know, team oriented.
The ball wasn't going to it'sdefined digs, wasn't like the
main focus of the offense.
Yeah, he can't be the main focus.
It wasn't the main focus of theoffense which helped.
(18:28):
So, just like, just like I wassaying earlier, you got to
spread the ball around and youhave to have the offense stay on
longer on the field.
So that way it gives a depleteddefense an opportunity to cash
your breath and, you know, goout there and play as they
should Instead of well, that's a30 second drive, we got to go
back out there.
(18:48):
Oh, that's a 20 second drive,we got to go back out there and
wears out defensive players andit keeps depleting your players.
But with Joe Brady on, Joe Bradyon his OC who is who was also,
by the way, Joe Burroughsoffensive coordinator at LSU
let's see what he can do to.
You know, rain Josh Allen inand get Josh Allen playing team
(19:11):
football and get Josh Allenusing his skill sets, which you
know they put him on anothertier when he's on, like he could
throw, he could run, he couldstiff arm a defensive tackle,
Like straight to the ground,like Derek Henry, stiff arm Josh
Norman.
Derek Henry was a piece.
Josh Allen could do that if youwanted to.
(19:33):
But Joe Brady, you know he'scapable, it's possible.
We'll see and see what theSteelers do.
Speaker 1 (19:39):
They just got.
They fired back Canada, so allof Steelers, or all of Western
Pennsylvania schools, wereclosed for the week in
celebration.
We all have been waiting forthat to happen, wow.
Speaker 2 (19:50):
Funny.
Matt Canada was the.
What's his face?
What's the guy's name there?
The quarterback, matt Canadawas the offensive coordinator
for Pickett.
For Pickett, he, yeah, Were atPickett, yeah.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
He was, he was.
I did not know that.
No, was he really?
Speaker 2 (20:09):
Look it up.
Speaker 1 (20:09):
I wouldn't look it up , he was.
Speaker 2 (20:10):
And then he came to the NFL and things are just not
working out.
Nobody, it did not work out,boy, I didn't want to, I liked
George.
Speaker 1 (20:16):
Pickens for the Steelers.
I liked George Pickens for theSteelers.
I liked George Pickens for theSteelers.
Speaker 2 (20:21):
I liked George Pickens for the Steelers as far
as receivers go.
Oh yeah, he's always he wasalways happy to be by himself.
Speaker 1 (20:26):
No, if he's on a different team, he really could
be making some noise, because hecatches everything Well,
there's some a possible rumorthat Big Ben Mosbauer could go
to Steelers next year Be theoffensive coordinator.
Yeah, what do you think aboutthat?
Speaker 2 (20:41):
Uh, what do you mean by that?
Uh, I don't know.
Ben wasn't the greatest playerever.
He just had a big body.
Speaker 1 (20:46):
What no To hit him an amazing arm, yeah, To throw
that ball.
He could sling that thing.
You kidding me?
He's you talking about it.
Speaker 2 (20:54):
No, you could sling it all you want.
What's that mean?
You have players that couldsling it all the time they don't
make it to the NFL.
Speaker 1 (21:00):
Not like him.
Speaker 2 (21:01):
Okay, not like him.
There's 32 other players thatcould sling it, just like him.
No, make him.
Or maybe better.
No, we'll leave it at that.
Speaker 1 (21:09):
I don't care, it's a hall of fame quarterback.
Speaker 2 (21:10):
What are you talking about?
I don't care for Big Ben.
He's not my kind of player.
We're good.
What's there not to like aboutBig Ben?
He's not my kind of player,okay, so why?
I'm a finesse guy.
I'm a finesse guy.
Yes, I like finesse.
I like style.
I like pizzazz, pizzazz.
Yeah, the goal is to get atouch.
I like it to look good.
Big Ben is just a big bully.
I don't care for that.
Speaker 1 (21:31):
He stands in the pocket and you throw the ball,
he doesn't.
60 yards touchdown.
Speaker 2 (21:36):
Super Bowl Great.
It wasn't because of him theywon the first Super Bowl.
Agreed, okay.
Speaker 1 (21:42):
But I was the gator.
But remember his rookie year.
They went 15 and won.
Yes, his rookie year, 15 andwon Great run and that was
because of him.
Speaker 2 (21:52):
Great running game.
Speaker 1 (21:53):
No, it was because of him.
Look at the highlights, allright.
Speaker 2 (21:56):
Well, off of Big Ben.
Now let's get into populartopics.
For Big Ben man, you're atrashy Big Ben, I'm not a trashy
Big Ben, I'm not a fan, it'sokay.
You're a fan, that's okay.
I'm not trashy him, I didn'tsay he's terrible.
I'm still upset about thoseblue pants.
Speaker 1 (22:09):
I don't like that Well.
Speaker 2 (22:11):
This game of the year .
They got to wear the gold.
Grandpa, you're going to haveto cool down on the uniform.
Don't win games.
Players win games.
All right, go ahead.
So onto popular culture topicshere.
All right, what do you got?
You got the boy Sean.
Puff daddy, diddy combs, takethat.
Take that.
Allegedly or not allegedly,it's out now he made a
(22:32):
settlement with theex-girlfriend Cassie.
I read the documents, right, Iread them.
You did read them.
I did.
Wow, he had what they callfreak offs.
He'd watch other guys get intothe act with this woman.
Yeah, and I'm like that iscrazy, but you know why that
happens.
No, you've been able to getwhatever you want whenever you
(22:55):
want it.
However, you want it right, andeventually you want something
else.
What's next?
What's next?
And what's next is doing freaky, weird stuff.
Yeah, just like you know,having freak offs, having, you
know, lady, do things with othermen while you watch.
I mean that's crazy.
What did you hear from Diddy'sbodyguard, ex-bodyguard or ex-.
Speaker 1 (23:18):
Well, first off, I like how in the beginning they
showed you they share this withyour kids.
And now we're here.
We're talking about freakystuff with Diddy.
Speaker 2 (23:23):
Wow, we're not talking too freaky, we're not
going to go, we don't have toomuch.
Well, I have information, butI'm not willing to go down there
.
Speaker 1 (23:32):
No flat TV had a who's ex-bodyguard on him.
Not, let's just say, not thetype.
Diddy's not the type of guy youwant to roll with, I don't care
how much money he has.
That's the funny thing, manPeople, how so many people will
turn.
You know the music industrywill turn.
You know an eye, you know onthe blind eye, the situations,
(23:53):
because that artist is making alot of money.
It's like no.
Speaker 2 (23:56):
Well, no, they don't.
They don't.
They're not turning a blind eye, they're just like.
That guy rules his own world,his own little mini world there.
But who gives him power, dude,that little guy can literally do
nothing.
We, the audience, give himpower.
We buy his music, okay, so hemakes money.
So what he's?
Speaker 1 (24:12):
a notoriety and a fame Dude.
He's not some sort of likecomic character that can like
fly and like shoot fireballs outof his hands.
That's that's really, heliterally can't do it.
So these people who walk aroundlike they're invincible, it's
just mind boggling to me.
Speaker 2 (24:25):
No, there's a time when they were invincible.
There's a.
There's never a time when theywere invincible.
Yes, they have Ever.
They have fixers, they havepeople that they can pay.
When you have money, you canget it with all that stuff, but
that's the thing, it's just lotsof money.
It's money.
Money makes things go away.
Speaker 1 (24:40):
And that that's crazy .
Speaker 2 (24:42):
Diddy was asked to settle the situation out of
court, or we're going to takeyou to court.
He didn't care.
And then all of a sudden stuffstarts coming out and he's like
wait a minute, we got to settlethis, so you know, you got to
watch yourself.
Man, oh man.
Well, you know money.
If you have enough of it, youcould make a lot of things, just
(25:03):
die a little.
Not, you know.
Speaker 1 (25:06):
Hey look, man, there's just a lot of shady
stuff that goes around, even allthese industries, yeah, and the
fact that, like, for example,mark Jackson, can't get another
coaching gig after he left theice off.
I'm great with Stephen A Smithand we saw the Mark Jackson
situation of how he can't get agood, longest period, another
coaching gear after his stemwith the Colise awards which he
had a winning record with.
But yet all these other shadypeople in the industry that he
(25:28):
won't name names, which Iunderstand, all get rehired and
new positions where they cankeep making money.
They've done horrible thingsand they still are employed.
Speaker 2 (25:39):
So you got, you got.
You got to shake the righthands and kiss the right babies.
Speaker 1 (25:44):
And that's nasty.
Anyway, go ahead, make yourmoney.
Go ahead with your weird ass.
Go ahead.
Speaker 2 (25:53):
This is not popular culture, but there's this thing
that's been going on.
So every December you havepeople that live, people that
were born in Africa, people thatyou know, grew up in Africa,
that came overseas.
They're going back for holidayand some dudes are going back to
hook up with women.
Some dudes are going back forbusiness purposes, but whatever
(26:15):
it is, they're going back forholidays.
But there's like a PSA goingaround on TikTok.
They tell the ladies to watchout for these men.
They come there.
They're there to break yourheart.
They're there to takeeverything away.
They're there to take all youremotions away from you and just
break your heart.
How do they break their heart?
You come in, you're a guy fromoverseas.
The ladies basically, whateveryou make here, you're a
(26:36):
millionaire back in thecontinent of Africa.
So you know you go there.
You could, like I said, money,you know, take care of
everything.
You go there.
You flash a hundred dollar billor you flash an iPhone.
They're like whoa big baller,he could take care of me and my
family members.
He could be helping, he couldbe supporting us and with that
(26:56):
in mind, the ladies are going torush to you, or not necessarily
no different than a rich guyhere.
That's it.
Not necessarily even a rush toyou, but whatever you say, it's
easier for them to get alongwith you because you're capable
of providing that does happenall around the world.
Speaker 1 (27:12):
There's the basketball players Again, they
only like you because of yourmoney.
Speaker 2 (27:15):
There's the athletes here.
There's athletes here that youknow get ladies on Instagram or
on social media, wherever theyget them and their DMs, and the
ladies are willing to show themmore love.
It's a lot easier for you toget.
Speaker 1 (27:26):
So it's all fake.
Speaker 2 (27:28):
It's not fake.
Speaker 1 (27:29):
It's fake.
They don't really like you.
They like you because of whatyou can do for them.
They don't actually really likeyou, though.
Well, that could be a problem,so I can go to Africa and hang
out with you and show my iPhonewith you.
Hey, look at my hundred dollarbill.
Speaker 2 (27:41):
They don't actually like me though no, they may like
you.
No, they don't.
They don't love you.
They like you.
Oh, okay, you're right, theylike me?
Speaker 1 (27:49):
Yes, they are drawn to me because of what I could do
for them.
Speaker 2 (27:53):
You come across as attractive because of what your
capabilities at your Africa.
Money makes you attract.
Money makes you look a littleshinier, a little different.
So I was watching this girlfrom Cameroon on TikTok.
She calls them bushwellers.
If you see a bushweller runaway, how do you know them?
They sweat too much becausethey don't, because it's so hot
(28:15):
over there, you're gonna sweat awhole lot.
And oh, they're always the onesif you're at a club where their
friends are whispering in theirears, and they're always the
one that if they're the barthey're like they're calling the
bartender to overcome here,give a thumbs up.
That's how you know thebushwellers.
So, ladies, keep an eye out,watch out for them.
If you don't want your heartbroken.
(28:35):
Stay away from these guys withmoney that could take care of
you.
Stay away from them.
God damn it, because you knowtheir money shiny, their body
shiny, their clothes are shiny,everything they have is shiny.
Stay away from them.
Don't let them attract you withthe shininess.
It's bad for you.
I'm just kidding Guys.
Don't let the haters dissuadeyou.
(28:57):
If you got money, it's just likeyou're an athlete in America.
An athlete in America couldwalk into a room.
This dude could have teeth thatlook like you know, the teeth
that look like their beingpulled at the opposite ends, and
the ladies could be like, oh,you're kind of cute, a lot of
that fake love.
And you're like what?
(29:17):
And they're like yeah, youcaught my eye for my model.
Or you pull up in a Lamborghiniall of a sudden.
I didn't know you had thisLamborghini.
Well, since you do, here's mynumber.
Speaker 1 (29:29):
This is why I know.
This is why relationships aredifficult to make work these
days.
They're all fake.
But then they're the complaintsabout the fact that these
things don't work and marriagesdon't work and it's like it's
supposed to be fake.
They're not genuine.
They're not genuine in themoments of trying to get to
understand, you know if thatperson really is a compliment in
their life.
Speaker 2 (29:50):
Speaking of a compliment in your life.
You saw my reel that I did withthe two women.
Speaker 1 (29:57):
I did, I did see it.
Speaker 2 (29:59):
All right, let's hear it, Andrew.
Speaker 1 (30:00):
Well, why don't you tell people what it is?
Speaker 2 (30:03):
So I made a clip on TikTok about two women.
There's a woman A and woman B.
Woman A she's on the heavierside, you know she's kind of
heavy set but she has a good job, no kids, 401k, life is okay,
she's stable.
And then you have woman B whoyou know she's dropped that
(30:24):
gorgeous but has nothing goingfor her.
All she has is the finest.
And Andrew came up on there andsaid you pick woman A and
Andrew, why would you pick womanA?
Speaker 1 (30:37):
Well, yeah, if you're well, first off, I'd just say
single.
But if I had to choose to livewith somebody, you choose
stability, hands down.
I'm picking her because youdon't hear the thing too Like
what good is living with someonewho's really attractive?
That brings nothing but chaosin your life.
No good at all.
(30:57):
That's why we're you know whatI mean?
Because if your conscious isstressed out because of the
individual, then the looks arerelevant, because you're not
really going to want to have sexwith them, because you're just
so you guys are both annoyedwith each other.
It's not going to work out.
So the woman who's on theheavier set maybe she's got her
mind right and then you can sayyou know what, let's get healthy
(31:18):
too.
Maybe she'd be more prone to goit has a partner in life that
really cares about and lovesabout her and says you know what
?
Let's also let's get fit.
Speaker 2 (31:28):
Let's Not only build our wealth, but let's build our
health.
Speaker 1 (31:31):
Let's build our health too, and then maybe that
way we'll start to come off andyou both can help compliment
each other on getting fit andliving a more healthy lifestyle
too.
And she'd be more prone tochange, whereas the one that's
hot really isn't prone to changeand growing, because the whole
point of being with somebodyanyways, so you can grow as a
couple, yeah.
And so if the one on theheavier set okay, yeah, she's
(31:53):
heavy right now, but maybe she'slooking for someone in her life
that she can really grow withthat could motivate her to be a
different person.
Oh, it depends on Picker.
When you need me a split second, oh yeah, picker, or anything,
and if she's dead we remain thatsize.
So if she that's still thereBottom line man.
Speaker 2 (32:08):
Yeah, let's stop with insanity.
That's what Andrew's saying,because oh, that's not right.
No, Insanity is doing the samething, expecting a different
result.
You go pick the good lookinggirl, she's great, you go out
with her.
Your friends are like dude, youbagged that, dude, you got that
, that's you.
You're like, yeah, but you gohome.
It's a headache.
Speaker 1 (32:27):
Well, there's a lot of pretty girls out there that
are really cool and stablepeople also, you know, yeah, but
they exist, they do.
Speaker 2 (32:33):
Beauties in the eye would be harder as well.
They do, but someone alreadyhas them.
They already have some bodies,somebody.
You saw them and snatched themup.
So there you go, guys, thebottom line insanity.
Don't do a dumb thing andexpect a different result and
(32:54):
keep your wits about you and, ifit looks good, do some
investigation.
There might be other issuesthat you absolutely can't stand
Right and you know.
Back away and look at it fromafar, see how it goes.

And thank you for staying withus and sticking with us, thank
you so much Right.
So let's Andrew.
What are some of the topicsthat we will be touching today?
Definitely hit up theThanksgiving weekend.
Thanksgiving weekend Allfootball games NFL, the college.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
We got NBA action.
We got the CFL crownedchampionship this past Sunday.
We got some baseball news.
We got popular culture newsright, we definitely do.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
We got some news, some things you want to talk
about and got a little bit offun topic at the end here.
Andrew, it's a surprise I getto educate you a little bit, but
we'll keep it going.
So, first on the docketThanksgiving games.
They happened.
You watch.
You didn't watch any of them, Iwatched some of them.
The first game on the docket Ididn't really, I wasn't really
(02:15):
paying attention to, but it wasthe Lions.
It was a Lions again.
Lions and Packers, lions andPackers.
Speaker 1 (02:22):
And everybody picked the Lions.
Everybody before I went forthat everybody had the Lions
picked and nobody picked thePackers.
Speaker 2 (02:29):
Of course not.
How could you have picked thePackers?
Jordan Love was playing likehot garbage.
Every game, the first, you knowfirst part of the game he'd
play decent.
He wouldn't play decent in thefirst part of the game, which is
a scripted part of every NFLgame, where you know you know
where the ball's going and you,you know it's predicated on how
(02:51):
the defense plays, but you knowwhere you want the ball to go.
He delivers the ball.
In the second half he doesn'tdo such a great job, but all in
all, jordan Love played out ofhis mind.
He played like a pro-voguecaliber quarterback.
I was shocked.
I was surprised the Lions triedto do you know they tried.
They tried to have a comebacklike they did against the Bears,
(03:14):
but it didn't work.
They ended up shootingthemselves in the foot.
The Packers defense was goingafter Jared Goff.
They were just hitting him,causing turnovers after
turnovers.
Are the Packers back?
Is Jordan Love going to be thenext heir to the throne?
Is he going to carry this short?
No, no, no.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
What happened was is the Lions finally became the
Lions?
Speaker 2 (03:37):
They just are not allowed to have anything good.
Are they part of the fake Heidiclub, as Colin would call them?
They look good, but as things,as the things get into the
picture of it everybody wasrooting for Detroit and Dan
Campbell the city.
Speaker 1 (03:51):
It's because the last time they've been anything
relevant this guy I think you'dbelieve was 1962.
They had a record like thisgoing into the Thanksgiving game
, and so it's a really nice,feel good story.
The problem is I don't knowwhat they did to the football
gods those decades ago, but theyare not allowed to have nice
things.
So the fact that Jordan Lovecame in there to Detroit, that
(04:15):
Madhouse sold out Fordfield andjust dumped on them from the
first quarter on Well, I feel itwas a constant team effort
because there was turnovers,that defense to the house.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
Bad things are going to happen to them and there was
a.
I mean, football is a momentumsport, for sure.
When everything starts, onething starts going downhill,
everything starts crashing.
That I believe.
That is.
I believe what happened withthe Packard, what you mean with
the Detroit.
Speaker 1 (04:44):
Lions, you can analyze it all you want, but at
the end of the day, the badthings are going to happen in
Detroit, because that's whathappened.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
Okay, well, let's hope bad things don't happen to
Detroit too often.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
Nobody wants them to because everyone's excited for
them.
Nobody wants them to.
Speaker 2 (05:00):
But they're just not.
So I'm sitting here happeningat Tiffany.
This is the year where it feelslike it's topsy-turvy.
Everything is just turnedaround.
The Lions are good.
Oh man, you know that's that's.
Speaker 1 (05:11):
that's.
The Lions are good.
You're on to something.
With that I mean really,because this year has been very
interesting the Lions are good.
Speaker 2 (05:19):
What's it called who else?
The Lions are good, the Brownsare good and they'll be good
teams.
Speaker 1 (05:25):
The Browns also have their injury quarterback, and
now they have to play?
Speaker 2 (05:28):
Yeah, no, they do.
They pulled off a game withtheir backup, they pulled off
two games with two backups.
Well, they beat the Steelers,they beat the Steelers, they
beat the 49ers.
Yeah, but but then wasn't theSean playing that game though?
No, no, no, not against the49ers.
It was PJ Walker, you're right,you're right.
So it's like topsy-turvy.
(05:49):
The Browns and the Lions aregood, and that usually rarely
ever happens.
And now here it is, it's beenfed on our platter.
I mean, something for sureterrible is going to happen, and
the Lions are good, the Brownsare good, but Kansas City is so,
so they're manned the secondhalf of every game.
(06:10):
Yes, why do you think that is?
Speaker 1 (06:12):
Is it because Patrick Cohn's cost way too much money?
They can't really spread thatmoney out for far too long to
compliment them.
If he had a great receivingcore, it would be a wrap.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
So yeah, Mark has vowed that's cantaline Cash
those damn balls.
Stop doing what you're doing.
It's crazy.
Speaker 1 (06:30):
No, I mean, they would probably be on the feeder
right now, but right now theDolphins actually took over the
first seed and the AFC.
But of course Kansas City alsoplayed this Sunday and Kansas
City holds a tiebreaker with theDolphins because they're going
to beat them.
Dolphins have to make sure thatthey kind of went out, which
they probably won't, becausethey haven't really beaten
(06:51):
anybody that's got a above 500record.
Speaker 2 (06:55):
So around NFL right now, people are blaming Aaron
Rodgers for the Jets sucking.
Why were they blaming AaronRodgers?
Well, they're blaming AaronRodgers because Aaron Rodgers
decided I'm going to go to theJets, but, jets, before you get
me, I need you to get RandallCobb for me, I need you to get
Nathaniel Hackett for me, andNathaniel Hackett's not known to
(07:16):
be an impressive play caller.
It's been like one or two timesthat Nathaniel Hackett's been
seen as crammed in like a cramp.
Why do you think, aaron?
Speaker 1 (07:26):
Rodgers is so high up on him Because that's how we
got the Denver job.
Because they were hoping to getAaron Rodgers that didn't
happen.
So then he goes to the Jetshoping to get Aaron Rodgers that
did happen.
But why do you think there'ssuch a big tie with him and
Nathaniel Hackett?
Speaker 2 (07:38):
What's his deal with him?
Sometimes it's just some people.
I don't know the inside scoop,but sometimes it's just some
people that you like and you getalong with so well that you
want to bring them with youwherever you go.
Speaker 1 (07:49):
You're there to win some games, not hang out with
your best buddy.
Speaker 2 (07:53):
Well, aaron Rodgers has won a Super Bowl, won
multiple MVP's 13 years ago.
Well, he's still won a SuperBowl.
He's never.
He hasn't even been back.
You can never take that awayfrom him.
You're right, but he's nevereven been back.
He can never take that awayfrom him.
That is all.
He's a Super Bowl champ for therest of his life and a
(08:14):
four-time league MVP for therest of his life.
Speaker 1 (08:18):
So hold on.
Can I cut you off for a second?
So I'm watching the got theMichigan Ohio State game preview
on right now.
Right, michigan's wearing theirblue on blue.
I don't like that.
Why you got to wear your bluepants.
This is the biggest game on thecalendar, one of the biggest
games in all of college calendar.
You got to wear yourtraditional, you know, blue
jersey yellow pants.
Get the classic helmet.
(08:40):
That's what I want to see.
This is what I'm upset aboutsports now.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
Players win the game.
It's not uniform.
Speaker 1 (08:45):
Yeah, you're missing.
You're missing an nostalgia forthe fans, right?
So like it's.
So, for example, like if I wantto see, if, if I want to see,
if if there's a Laker Celticgame on TV you know the games in
Boston I'd love to see theBoston where they're white
jerseys, lakers, where you knowthe purple jerseys makes you
kind of reminiscent of like theold NBA files.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
Taking it back to the old school.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
Yeah, in the 60s or 70s you know what I mean.
Like, I like that.
It's like instead the Celticsgot to wear their black jerseys
and then the Lakers are going towear their like throwback baby
blue jerseys and you're likedude, this is some B Like, go
wear BS.
Yeah, it's BS, man.
So you know, if you want to wearthose jerseys, wear, for you
(09:25):
know garbage teams, you know,like nobody really cares about
you know, like when you get thehigh profile matchups, wear the
jerseys that like kind of cangive the, you know, 75 year old
fan like that nostalgia.
I've always seen they're likeeven back when he was a kid
watching these games.
And you know, because those areclassic uniforms, they never
(09:45):
change them.
They're like South state andMichigan never really changed
their uniforms, their styles andsame helmets and the same
jerseys and stuff like that.
This is my little rant onsports and you know so.
Anyway, I just got into theblue, the blue pants.
Yeah, I'm being petty right now.
I get it.
Speaker 2 (10:02):
But Michigan with the , you're being a back of my day
guy.
Yeah, come on.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
You know where?
Where would you go?
Where are that good stuff?
Speaker 2 (10:10):
Where that stuff that brings the soldier to people
that you know awakens theemotions.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
That's the problem with the NBA.
They have too many jerseys now.
There's no more home and awayjerseys, it's just everything,
whatever goes.
And then we have city connectcity jerseys.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
That got midnight jerseys, that got you know
whatever jerseys you know it'scapitalism and you got to find
ways to make money and they'reall making money and it's not
like it's making anybody morehappy.
If people are interested inthose jerseys, you'll go out and
buy them.
Speaking of the city connectand this down the third, the NBA
.
You got Mr LeBlanc Jamespopping off.
(10:45):
He has 39,000 points the onlyperson to do it.
Speaker 1 (10:50):
Well, of course, at this point, because he's past
cream of little jubar, so he'sthe number one.
So everything he adds at thispoint is just yeah, it's all
adage, which is great for him.
No, it's going to break thisrecord Go ahead.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
Well, for that, for that people are.
People are saying that LeBlancJames is not an alpha.
He's more of a past first guythan you know score.
They all been saying that.
Really Right, he's also a damngood score if he holds the
record Agreed and there'snothing you could take away from
(11:21):
him.
Leblanc James is forever andever etched in our memories and
our lives and history as thebest score to ever do it.
Speaker 1 (11:31):
He could average 40 points of people, no one could
stop him.
It's a free train, but you knowhe plays the game Like you know
, if there's someone who's old,he plays a team game and he's
trying to get his teammatesinvolved, which is essentially a
great thing.
So they say he doesn't havethis killer instinct like Colby
or Michael, you know it's like.
I mean he could take the ballwith the basket as much as they
did.
He can, he doesn't.
(11:52):
He's a bigger body than they do.
He's a bigger body than theyare.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
Yes, yes, was he 260?
He was a big LeBron.
Speaker 1 (12:02):
Choo choo.
Look, he could score at Will ifyou really wanted to.
But he likes to get histeammates involved.
That's good to get yourteammates involved.
Speaker 2 (12:10):
That's what everybody likes playing with LeBron Right
?
Yeah, it's good to get yourteammates involved Absolutely,
because you know when you needthem.
You can count on them.
They can.
Speaker 1 (12:17):
He took he helped the Cavaliers with a championship.
The Cavaliers have been to thefinals five times because of him
.
Five the Cavaliers who used toplay in Richfield, ohio, which
is like a half an hour outsideof Cleveland.
That's what the old arena usedto be.
It was the ugliest lookingthing you've ever seen in your
life Ohio.
Now it's in the middle of justlike.
If you go visit that site, it'sjust a field.
(12:38):
You would have never haveguessed there was an arena there
.
There's a building there.
That franchise he took thatfranchise to five, five, ida and
Finals.
He's amazing.
Speaker 2 (12:47):
He is definitely amazing.
So, andrew, yes, did you watchany of the CFL championship?
I did no.
Speaker 1 (12:53):
You didn't.
I didn't watch it.
But you know why didn't watchit?
Because the CFL couldn't strikea deal with any of the networks
to broadcast the game.
Oh, so it was on a streamingservice which I don't get.
I was trying to find it on myphone, couldn't get it, so I
literally missed the whole game,and I usually never missed the
(13:13):
game.
I really enjoyed the the greatcup championship.
I mean.
Speaker 2 (13:17):
well, they say the skill levels on par with our
skill with the people in there.
But it's just that these areguys, you know For sure.
Speaker 1 (13:24):
But it's fun.
It's a look.
At the end of the day, you takeit for what it is.
They play three downs insteadof four.
Their fields much wider andlonger than ours, I get it Well.
The end zones are bigger.
I think it's still 100 yards,but the they use every part of
the field.
Yeah, so which it sucked.
Missing the game because itturned out to be a really good
(13:47):
game Came down to the lastminute.
Montréal scored a touchdownvery late in the game to take
the lead over Winnipeg, who Ibelieve had lost last year also.
Wow, they lost, they barelyheld, they didn't hold on and
they lost again.
Speaker 2 (14:04):
Is Winnipeg going to be the Buffalo Bills of the CFL?
Speaker 1 (14:07):
No, make it four times, because they've won some
championships Okay, but it'sbeen their back to back losers.
Oh, that's garbage.
But Montréal won it.
Nobody had picked them to evenmake the playoffs, which I think
.
In CFL, only two or three teamsmissed the playoffs, so there's
like 19.
They need an expansion.
Quebec City should be one,because I don't think a land or
(14:30):
I don't think, I don't thinkNova Social is going to get the
game.
Anyway, I digress.
But yeah, we got the.
So they won the championshipfirst time since 2010.
That was awesome and I'm hopingthat league can start to grow,
because I think it's.
I think it'd be fun if Canadaactually had like a league that
you know they, their fan base isreally cute, but I think they
are only like three million toactually watch the game out of a
(14:53):
population of 50.
Speaker 2 (14:54):
I think it is Canada's hockey town.
Speaker 1 (14:56):
It's not You're right .
Yeah, I know I get it, but youknow that's not like.
Speaker 2 (15:02):
It's like hey, let's go watch cricket in India, let's
go watch basketball should bebaseball in India.
Speaker 1 (15:06):
Yeah, I think they had the numbers, I think last
year for for how manyviewerships people in America
watched it the CFL last year andI think that's for the
championship.
I think it was like a hundredthousand people.
I thought I was like one ofthem.
Speaker 2 (15:20):
There you go.
Speaker 1 (15:21):
You have very special , few, yeah, the few the special
, but you didn't promise that.
The CFL like, really they'renot very good.
Like, first off, I have no ideawhat an alohuida is.
You know, for Montreal that's ateam name.
The Toronto Argonauts I meanthese are names have been around
for a long time.
I think Argonauts is like anold Greek mythology ship, I
believe.
Probably Interesting nameEdmonton Elk was.
(15:45):
They changed from the Eskimosbecause that was like their.
You know, like ClevelandIndians they got rid of.
So Eskimos they got rid of,which was Edmonton Elk was
always a much better name togive.
So I like that name.
And they play an old stadium.
Their owner wants a new stadium, which they need because the
stadium's ugly Same with Calgary, so it's ugly.
They have these really old,outdated stadiums.
(16:06):
Like Hamilton has a new stadiumwhich is really pretty,
winnipeg, saskatchewan.
They have a really nice stadium.
They kind of need to kind ofdress up the league a little bit
.
Ottawa has a franchise and theyrecently got and they named the
team the Red Blacks, the RedBlacks.
Why is that?
Anybody know what the effort ofRed Black is?
(16:27):
Because I have no clue what aRed Black is.
Canadian listeners, let us knowDude seriously, this is the
stupidest name in almost allsports.
Like you can't call yourselflike dude.
You're not going to callyourself a Red Black.
You're not going to callyourself like dude.
Even the Ottawa Otters would bea cool name.
Like you know, have a coolcartoon like make a little
badass or something.
Speaker 2 (16:43):
You're going crazy here.
The Red Blacks, let's get offthat topic.
The Buffalo Bills changeoffensive coordinators.
What are your thoughts on that?
Speaker 1 (16:52):
I like Ken Dorsey.
I have you know, he's part ofthat one of my all time favorite
teams of the era of, like the2000, 2002, you know that, three
years of my new hurricanefootball.
No you, I love that era, so Imean I have a special place in
my heart for him.
But I was really rooting forhim.
(17:13):
But they had to make a change,just like, and then they put up
how many was it?
37, 38 points against the nearjets?
37.
, was it 37?
I thought it was more than that.
No, yeah, they put up a lot ofpoints on them after they let
Ken Dorsey go.
So I don't know what the dealis.
I don't know if it was him orwhatnot, but if they struggle,
(17:37):
Shawn McDermott's the next oneto go.
I said after that.
I said this after the playofflost at Kansas City Chiefs, when
they lost the game with that 13seconds to go and they allowed
Kansas City to drive the field,get that field goal, win it in
overtime, I said at that momentnot that there is anything wrong
with Shawn McDermott, I wouldhave fired him on but you had
number one defense in the leagueand you let Kansas City drive
(18:00):
the field and tie the game upwith 13 seconds to go with your
number one defense.
So I find him so.
Speaker 2 (18:06):
I think I think when Joe Brady got in as OC, yeah, he
got the team playing, he gotthe offense playing more, you
know, team oriented.
The ball wasn't going to it'sdefined digs, wasn't like the
main focus of the offense.
Yeah, he can't be the main focus.
It wasn't the main focus of theoffense which helped.
(18:28):
So, just like, just like I wassaying earlier, you got to
spread the ball around and youhave to have the offense stay on
longer on the field.
So that way it gives a depleteddefense an opportunity to cash
your breath and, you know, goout there and play as they
should Instead of well, that's a30 second drive, we got to go
back out there.
(18:48):
Oh, that's a 20 second drive,we got to go back out there and
wears out defensive players andit keeps depleting your players.
But with Joe Brady on, Joe Bradyon his OC who is who was also,
by the way, Joe Burroughsoffensive coordinator at LSU
let's see what he can do to.
You know, rain Josh Allen inand get Josh Allen playing team
(19:11):
football and get Josh Allenusing his skill sets, which you
know they put him on anothertier when he's on, like he could
throw, he could run, he couldstiff arm a defensive tackle,
Like straight to the ground,like Derek Henry, stiff arm Josh
Norman.
Derek Henry was a piece.
Josh Allen could do that if youwanted to.
(19:33):
But Joe Brady, you know he'scapable, it's possible.
We'll see and see what theSteelers do.
Speaker 1 (19:39):
They just got.
They fired back Canada, so allof Steelers, or all of Western
Pennsylvania schools, wereclosed for the week in
celebration.
We all have been waiting forthat to happen, wow.
Speaker 2 (19:50):
Funny.
Matt Canada was the.
What's his face?
What's the guy's name there?
The quarterback, matt Canadawas the offensive coordinator
for Pickett.
For Pickett, he, yeah, Were atPickett, yeah.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
He was, he was.
I did not know that.
No, was he really?
Speaker 2 (20:09):
Look it up.
Speaker 1 (20:09):
I wouldn't look it up , he was.
Speaker 2 (20:10):
And then he came to the NFL and things are just not
working out.
Nobody, it did not work out,boy, I didn't want to, I liked
George.
Speaker 1 (20:16):
Pickens for the Steelers.
I liked George Pickens for theSteelers.
I liked George Pickens for theSteelers.
Speaker 2 (20:21):
I liked George Pickens for the Steelers as far
as receivers go.
Oh yeah, he's always he wasalways happy to be by himself.
Speaker 1 (20:26):
No, if he's on a different team, he really could
be making some noise, because hecatches everything Well,
there's some a possible rumorthat Big Ben Mosbauer could go
to Steelers next year Be theoffensive coordinator.
Yeah, what do you think aboutthat?
Speaker 2 (20:41):
Uh, what do you mean by that?
Uh, I don't know.
Ben wasn't the greatest playerever.
He just had a big body.
Speaker 1 (20:46):
What no To hit him an amazing arm, yeah, To throw
that ball.
He could sling that thing.
You kidding me?
He's you talking about it.
Speaker 2 (20:54):
No, you could sling it all you want.
What's that mean?
You have players that couldsling it all the time they don't
make it to the NFL.
Speaker 1 (21:00):
Not like him.
Speaker 2 (21:01):
Okay, not like him.
There's 32 other players thatcould sling it, just like him.
No, make him.
Or maybe better.
No, we'll leave it at that.
Speaker 1 (21:09):
I don't care, it's a hall of fame quarterback.
Speaker 2 (21:10):
What are you talking about?
I don't care for Big Ben.
He's not my kind of player.
We're good.
What's there not to like aboutBig Ben?
He's not my kind of player,okay, so why?
I'm a finesse guy.
I'm a finesse guy.
Yes, I like finesse.
I like style.
I like pizzazz, pizzazz.
Yeah, the goal is to get atouch.
I like it to look good.
Big Ben is just a big bully.
I don't care for that.
Speaker 1 (21:31):
He stands in the pocket and you throw the ball,
he doesn't.
60 yards touchdown.
Speaker 2 (21:36):
Super Bowl Great.
It wasn't because of him theywon the first Super Bowl.
Agreed, okay.
Speaker 1 (21:42):
But I was the gator.
But remember his rookie year.
They went 15 and won.
Yes, his rookie year, 15 andwon Great run and that was
because of him.
Speaker 2 (21:52):
Great running game.
Speaker 1 (21:53):
No, it was because of him.
Look at the highlights, allright.
Speaker 2 (21:56):
Well, off of Big Ben.
Now let's get into populartopics.
For Big Ben man, you're atrashy Big Ben, I'm not a trashy
Big Ben, I'm not a fan, it'sokay.
You're a fan, that's okay.
I'm not trashy him, I didn'tsay he's terrible.
I'm still upset about thoseblue pants.
Speaker 1 (22:09):
I don't like that Well.
Speaker 2 (22:11):
This game of the year .
They got to wear the gold.
Grandpa, you're going to haveto cool down on the uniform.
Don't win games.
Players win games.
All right, go ahead.
So onto popular culture topicshere.
All right, what do you got?
You got the boy Sean.
Puff daddy, diddy combs, takethat.
Take that.
Allegedly or not allegedly,it's out now he made a
(22:32):
settlement with theex-girlfriend Cassie.
I read the documents, right, Iread them.
You did read them.
I did.
Wow, he had what they callfreak offs.
He'd watch other guys get intothe act with this woman.
Yeah, and I'm like that iscrazy, but you know why that
happens.
No, you've been able to getwhatever you want whenever you
(22:55):
want it.
However, you want it right, andeventually you want something
else.
What's next?
What's next?
And what's next is doing freaky, weird stuff.
Yeah, just like you know,having freak offs, having, you
know, lady, do things with othermen while you watch.
I mean that's crazy.
What did you hear from Diddy'sbodyguard, ex-bodyguard or ex-.
Speaker 1 (23:18):
Well, first off, I like how in the beginning they
showed you they share this withyour kids.
And now we're here.
We're talking about freakystuff with Diddy.
Speaker 2 (23:23):
Wow, we're not talking too freaky, we're not
going to go, we don't have toomuch.
Well, I have information, butI'm not willing to go down there
.
Speaker 1 (23:32):
No flat TV had a who's ex-bodyguard on him.
Not, let's just say, not thetype.
Diddy's not the type of guy youwant to roll with, I don't care
how much money he has.
That's the funny thing, manPeople, how so many people will
turn.
You know the music industrywill turn.
You know an eye, you know onthe blind eye, the situations,
(23:53):
because that artist is making alot of money.
It's like no.
Speaker 2 (23:56):
Well, no, they don't.
They don't.
They're not turning a blind eye, they're just like.
That guy rules his own world,his own little mini world there.
But who gives him power, dude,that little guy can literally do
nothing.
We, the audience, give himpower.
We buy his music, okay, so hemakes money.
So what he's?
Speaker 1 (24:12):
a notoriety and a fame Dude.
He's not some sort of likecomic character that can like
fly and like shoot fireballs outof his hands.
That's that's really, heliterally can't do it.
So these people who walk aroundlike they're invincible, it's
just mind boggling to me.
Speaker 2 (24:25):
No, there's a time when they were invincible.
There's a.
There's never a time when theywere invincible.
Yes, they have Ever.
They have fixers, they havepeople that they can pay.
When you have money, you canget it with all that stuff, but
that's the thing, it's just lotsof money.
It's money.
Money makes things go away.
Speaker 1 (24:40):
And that that's crazy .
Speaker 2 (24:42):
Diddy was asked to settle the situation out of
court, or we're going to takeyou to court.
He didn't care.
And then all of a sudden stuffstarts coming out and he's like
wait a minute, we got to settlethis, so you know, you got to
watch yourself.
Man, oh man.
Well, you know money.
If you have enough of it, youcould make a lot of things, just
(25:03):
die a little.
Not, you know.
Speaker 1 (25:06):
Hey look, man, there's just a lot of shady
stuff that goes around, even allthese industries, yeah, and the
fact that, like, for example,mark Jackson, can't get another
coaching gig after he left theice off.
I'm great with Stephen A Smithand we saw the Mark Jackson
situation of how he can't get agood, longest period, another
coaching gear after his stemwith the Colise awards which he
had a winning record with.
But yet all these other shadypeople in the industry that he
(25:28):
won't name names, which Iunderstand, all get rehired and
new positions where they cankeep making money.
They've done horrible thingsand they still are employed.
Speaker 2 (25:39):
So you got, you got.
You got to shake the righthands and kiss the right babies.
Speaker 1 (25:44):
And that's nasty.
Anyway, go ahead, make yourmoney.
Go ahead with your weird ass.
Go ahead.
Speaker 2 (25:53):
This is not popular culture, but there's this thing
that's been going on.
So every December you havepeople that live, people that
were born in Africa, people thatyou know, grew up in Africa,
that came overseas.
They're going back for holidayand some dudes are going back to
hook up with women.
Some dudes are going back forbusiness purposes, but whatever
(26:15):
it is, they're going back forholidays.
But there's like a PSA goingaround on TikTok.
They tell the ladies to watchout for these men.
They come there.
They're there to break yourheart.
They're there to takeeverything away.
They're there to take all youremotions away from you and just
break your heart.
How do they break their heart?
You come in, you're a guy fromoverseas.
The ladies basically, whateveryou make here, you're a
(26:36):
millionaire back in thecontinent of Africa.
So you know you go there.
You could, like I said, money,you know, take care of
everything.
You go there.
You flash a hundred dollar billor you flash an iPhone.
They're like whoa big baller,he could take care of me and my
family members.
He could be helping, he couldbe supporting us and with that
(26:56):
in mind, the ladies are going torush to you, or not necessarily
no different than a rich guyhere.
That's it.
Not necessarily even a rush toyou, but whatever you say, it's
easier for them to get alongwith you because you're capable
of providing that does happenall around the world.
Speaker 1 (27:12):
There's the basketball players Again, they
only like you because of yourmoney.
Speaker 2 (27:15):
There's the athletes here.
There's athletes here that youknow get ladies on Instagram or
on social media, wherever theyget them and their DMs, and the
ladies are willing to show themmore love.
It's a lot easier for you toget.
Speaker 1 (27:26):
So it's all fake.
Speaker 2 (27:28):
It's not fake.
Speaker 1 (27:29):
It's fake.
They don't really like you.
They like you because of whatyou can do for them.
They don't actually really likeyou, though.
Well, that could be a problem,so I can go to Africa and hang
out with you and show my iPhonewith you.
Hey, look at my hundred dollarbill.
Speaker 2 (27:41):
They don't actually like me though no, they may like
you.
No, they don't.
They don't love you.
They like you.
Oh, okay, you're right, theylike me?
Speaker 1 (27:49):
Yes, they are drawn to me because of what I could do
for them.
Speaker 2 (27:53):
You come across as attractive because of what your
capabilities at your Africa.
Money makes you attract.
Money makes you look a littleshinier, a little different.
So I was watching this girlfrom Cameroon on TikTok.
She calls them bushwellers.
If you see a bushweller runaway, how do you know them?
They sweat too much becausethey don't, because it's so hot
(28:15):
over there, you're gonna sweat awhole lot.
And oh, they're always the onesif you're at a club where their
friends are whispering in theirears, and they're always the
one that if they're the barthey're like they're calling the
bartender to overcome here,give a thumbs up.
That's how you know thebushwellers.
So, ladies, keep an eye out,watch out for them.
If you don't want your heartbroken.
(28:35):
Stay away from these guys withmoney that could take care of
you.
Stay away from them.
God damn it, because you knowtheir money shiny, their body
shiny, their clothes are shiny,everything they have is shiny.
Stay away from them.
Don't let them attract you withthe shininess.
It's bad for you.
I'm just kidding Guys.
Don't let the haters dissuadeyou.
(28:57):
If you got money, it's just likeyou're an athlete in America.
An athlete in America couldwalk into a room.
This dude could have teeth thatlook like you know, the teeth
that look like their beingpulled at the opposite ends, and
the ladies could be like, oh,you're kind of cute, a lot of
that fake love.
And you're like what?
(29:17):
And they're like yeah, youcaught my eye for my model.
Or you pull up in a Lamborghiniall of a sudden.
I didn't know you had thisLamborghini.
Well, since you do, here's mynumber.
Speaker 1 (29:29):
This is why I know.
This is why relationships aredifficult to make work these
days.
They're all fake.
But then they're the complaintsabout the fact that these
things don't work and marriagesdon't work and it's like it's
supposed to be fake.
They're not genuine.
They're not genuine in themoments of trying to get to
understand, you know if thatperson really is a compliment in
their life.
Speaker 2 (29:50):
Speaking of a compliment in your life.
You saw my reel that I did withthe two women.
Speaker 1 (29:57):
I did, I did see it.
Speaker 2 (29:59):
All right, let's hear it, Andrew.
Speaker 1 (30:00):
Well, why don't you tell people what it is?
Speaker 2 (30:03):
So I made a clip on TikTok about two women.
There's a woman A and woman B.
Woman A she's on the heavierside, you know she's kind of
heavy set but she has a good job, no kids, 401k, life is okay,
she's stable.
And then you have woman B whoyou know she's dropped that
(30:24):
gorgeous but has nothing goingfor her.
All she has is the finest.
And Andrew came up on there andsaid you pick woman A and
Andrew, why would you pick womanA?
Speaker 1 (30:37):
Well, yeah, if you're well, first off, I'd just say
single.
But if I had to choose to livewith somebody, you choose
stability, hands down.
I'm picking her because youdon't hear the thing too Like
what good is living with someonewho's really attractive?
That brings nothing but chaosin your life.
No good at all.
(30:57):
That's why we're you know whatI mean?
Because if your conscious isstressed out because of the
individual, then the looks arerelevant, because you're not
really going to want to have sexwith them, because you're just
so you guys are both annoyedwith each other.
It's not going to work out.
So the woman who's on theheavier set maybe she's got her
mind right and then you can sayyou know what, let's get healthy
(31:18):
too.
Maybe she'd be more prone to goit has a partner in life that
really cares about and lovesabout her and says you know what
?
Let's also let's get fit.
Speaker 2 (31:28):
Let's Not only build our wealth, but let's build our
health.
Speaker 1 (31:31):
Let's build our health too, and then maybe that
way we'll start to come off andyou both can help compliment
each other on getting fit andliving a more healthy lifestyle
too.
And she'd be more prone tochange, whereas the one that's
hot really isn't prone to changeand growing, because the whole
point of being with somebodyanyways, so you can grow as a
couple, yeah.
