(01:43):
There's a crisp 42 degrees atbaseball practice tonight.
Love to see it.
Yeah, it's a little chilly atnight sometimes up there in the
shy.
Yeah, still got it.
Did a little competition withthe kids after See if they could

(02:04):
throw the ball further than me,because they had that football
field where we're at.
Still got it.
Still got a little juice leftin the tank.
Huh, they're 12.
I understand, you're a grownadult, just wanted to see if I
had a little juice left in thetank.
You're a grown adult, justwanted to see if I had a little

(02:25):
juice left in the tank.
You haven't even hit yourphysical prime yet.
What do you mean?
You're what?
23?
Five now?
Oh sorry, 25?
All right, you're getting closeto physical peak.
You're getting close tophysical peak.

(02:50):
It doesn't feel that way.
I think.
I think 17 to 19 was the peakit's been down ever since.
You got a hoop hooped in yourcereal for the last couple weeks
.
You know I should havementioned this a while ago.
You got a who pooped in yourcereal for the last couple of

(03:11):
weeks.
You know I I should havementioned this a while ago.
Uh, I don't know if you usebleacher report the app
sometimes, but when they read itall of the, the way the whole
app is laid out it sucks.
Now it's miserable.
Whoever decided that was thedesign to go with should be
fired immediately.
That was terrible.
That's a good debate for who'sback?

(03:37):
You know, we're back from.
Our CS says what sports app forscores is the best?
You know, a lot of people liketo score CBS.
I'm an ESPN guy, still Anothertopic for another day.
We should probably give outwhere we get some of our stats
and all that stuff at some pointNext season.
For me, I'm going to go withMetro.

(04:00):
Got off the train on Monday,noticed I didn't have my Oakleys
within three minutes of megetting off the train, went back
to my seat and they were gone.
So either we got some crookedconductors or you got off the
train and then got back on.

(04:21):
Yeah, to look for my glasses.
Did you miss your stop?
No, to look for my glasses.
Did you miss your stop?
No, I was going into the city.
Oh oh yeah, why are you inMetro?
Metro didn't steal your glasses.
The Good Samaritans of theKenzie stopped it.

(04:42):
Hey, man, we're all getting off.
There's Oakley's left in a seat.
What are they going to do?
Just leave them there?
I don't know.
Then I called Boston and foundthey weren't there.
First time.
Losing a pair of sunglassesDoesn't feel good.
About to order some moreOakley's?

(05:02):
Can't wait for that.
Take care of your shit.
About to order some more?
Some more Oakleys.
So can't wait for that.
Take care of your shit.
I'm trying, trying, learning,adapting, getting better Alright
, alright, as long as you'rebetter today than you were
yesterday, that's all thatmatters.
Let's get into our favoritetopic football.

(05:23):
My Cleveland Browns did anamazing job in the first hour of
the draft, trading the secondoverall pick to the Jacksonville
Jaguars for their first thisyear, a second round this year
and what a first next year.

(05:43):
Am I missing one?
No, I think that's right.
How do you?
That's a terrible trade for theJags.
I know they're celebrating itwas a win.
They got the best player in thedraft, according to them, but

(06:04):
they gave up a lot and theargument will be he's like
getting two first round picks,because he's a first round pick
on offense and a first roundpick on defense.
But no, I don't get it.
I don't get how you can behappy with that.

(06:24):
I'm ecstatic because they'regoing to be the worst team in
football next year, and so theBrowns are going to get Arch
Manning.
Can't wait, can't wait, unlesshe doesn't come out because he
doesn't want to play for theBrowns.
Stop.
Did wish the.
I like Mason Graham, blue chipplayer, out of that draft, but I

(06:47):
wish they would have tradedback one more time.
Who would you rather havegotten?
I do like Mason Graham.
I think he's amazing.
I wanted Abdul Carter to pairhim with Myles Garrett, but you
could have traded back and got atackle.
So the the first, the first twodays were fine, but then after

(07:12):
that, why are we drafting dylangabriel?
We drafted two quarterbacks andtwo running backs.
We got gabriel shador and thenI don't know in what world they
thought judkins was better thantravion henderson.
Am I just biased?
Am I not seeing something right?
Or are we just going with whatcrying ryan put on the field?

(07:34):
And then they got samson fromtennessee.
So they drafted two runningbacks, two quarterbacks, so
obviously nick chubb is probablygone, which stinks.

Speaker 1 (07:46):
He's a trooper.

Speaker 3 (07:47):
If any team would have had the best evaluation on
Judd Kinson Travion, it has tobe the Browns.
Right, they're right there.
I'm sure they talk to OhioState coaches all the time.
Those are easy games for themto get to.
Yeah, I think Brian Day drivesup to Cleveland to get the dye

(08:08):
for his beard.
That's your team man.
You can't be saying things likethat.
It's not my team, carson Beck'sleading my team.
I don't understand, and maybe Iguess we'll get into this when

(08:31):
we talk about the Shador thingor we want to talk about that
now.

Speaker 1 (08:36):
Sure.

Speaker 3 (08:37):
But like Carson Beck making $4 million a year.
Nico, whatever, I can'tpronounce asking for $4 million
a year.
Meanwhile, justin Fields ismaking $5 million as a starting
quarterback in the NFL.
This feels like a problem.

(08:59):
It will keep kids in collegelonger, probably because they
don't want to take a pay cut togo to the NFL.
But they should also realizethat you need to get your NFL
clock started earlier so you canget to contract too.
But I don't know.
It seems a little ridiculousthat they're making that much

(09:20):
money in college.
Yeah, look how much money, whenyours left out on the table.
Yeah, that apparently was ahuge mistake, but we'll see.
I mean, all he's got to do isbecome a starting quarterback
and he's golden.
And I mean he's on a rosterthat he could do it.
I mean Zach.

Speaker 1 (09:42):
Wilson's talented yeah.

Speaker 3 (09:49):
Because you know Tua's not playing all 17 games.

Speaker 2 (09:53):
Just get that out of the way.

Speaker 3 (09:55):
What?
I don't even know why he'sstill there.
Dude should retire Back to theBrowns.
Yeah, who's starting openingday, joe Flacco?
So you should hammer that atplus 450.

Speaker 1 (10:12):
I think so.

Speaker 3 (10:13):
I don't.
If you want to win games, whoelse would you put in?
Should or no?
I said win games, not make it.
So you have two top 10 picksnext year.
Dylan Gabriel's tiny, he's notplaying.

(10:36):
I don't understand that either.
Why there were so many othergood players left.
Is that linebacker that goodI'm?
I know they said after that itdrops off, but that seemed like
a weird pick to what?
The kid from UCLA yeah, Iforget his name did it.

(10:56):
He was a fucking walk on.
I didn't think he was that good.
I know there were a lot of goodplayers out there, especially
good taken, a lot of goodplayers out there Especially
good receivers, a lot of goodreceivers.
But and if there was a corner, asafety?
I don't know, I don't know whatthey were doing Not that you

(11:16):
necessarily need that, but Ithought things were changing
based off what they did thefirst day, and then they just
slap in the face day two andthree.
I hope I eat my words, but theBrowns aren't winning more than
six games next year.
There's no way They'll beat theBears, they'll beat the Bengals

(11:38):
once it's two, they'll beat theRavens and they'll beat the
Ravens or the Steelers at leastonce.
So that's three wins.
Steelers don't have aquarterback.
What do you mean?
They got Aaron Rodgers.
Oh, is that official, yet YepPer the smokes.

Speaker 1 (12:02):
Yeah, per the smoke Per.

Speaker 3 (12:04):
The smoke signals from the Native American
Preservation Word just gotcancelled.
Oh, come on, that's not thatbad.
I don't get it.
I do hope the door takes us asa wake-up call and focuses on

(12:29):
football.
I think part of the slide isprobably because everyone saw
the tapes of him and Cam Wardtalking at practices and Cam was
just like come on, you got tofocus.
And, shador, you don't have anyother hobbies.
I mean I got my rap thing.
This thing, that thing likedude, you can't succeed in the

(12:51):
NFL like that and maybe maybeI'll be wrong, maybe he'll,
he'll be different because he'sdifferent.
But I mean I want a guy who's100% in on football.
Yeah, he's like LiAngelo Ballfeels like a problem.
I mean I want a guy who's 100%in on football yeah he's like
LiAngelo.
Ball Feels like a problem.
Yeah, but Cleveland, wherequarterbacks go to Excel,

(13:25):
over-under two and a half gamesstarted for Jador next year
Under Over under one.
I mean it's actually probablyover one and a half.
You might even probably be overtwo and a half If they start
out.
Oh and whatever, they're goingto have to put them out there
and see if it's a see if it cando it in the game.

(13:45):
Yeah, hey, at least they gotDeontay Johnson.
So here we go.
I'm sure that won't cause moreproblems.
The dude was on what?
Four teams last year Panthers,ravens, texans.

Speaker 1 (14:08):
Steelers.

Speaker 3 (14:14):
Didn't he end up back at the Ravens at the end?
I don't remember.
I don't know what he did.
He was all.
I don't.

Speaker 1 (14:21):
He could have been a charger.

Speaker 3 (14:23):
Could have been a charger.

Speaker 1 (14:25):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (14:28):
Yeah, I don't know if there's any more free agent
wide receivers out there, butthings are looking down for the
Browns.
What else is new?

Speaker 1 (14:41):
Yeah, I don't get it.

Speaker 3 (14:42):
Who else do you have?
You have Receiver.
Yeah, elijah Moore is gone.
Buffalo I think, yeah, we gotJudy.
Is Donovan Peoples-Jones stillaround?
I don't know.
This is not good, joku.

(15:06):
You got the other tight end too.
I like that kid.

Speaker 1 (15:11):
What.

Speaker 3 (15:11):
Bryant.

Speaker 1 (15:14):
No.

Speaker 3 (15:15):
Didn't you draft the kid out of Harrigan Hannigan
Whatever his name is, I don'tcare no, no, they should have
got a Strepo.
I don't know what they're doing,you know at least Shador got, I

(15:42):
think, three of his receiversdrafted right From the Buffs
Before him.
Were they before him?
Probably, I don't know.
I don't think so.
I think they went after him,but I can't confirm.
Is it bad that it took lesstime to pick a Pope than Shador

(16:05):
to get drafted?
I mean, look, let's be honest,Shador is not a fifth-round
quarterback, right?

Speaker 1 (16:21):
I think we're all in agreement.

Speaker 3 (16:26):
I mean he's probably a third round quarterback.
You generally tell you he's gotto be a backup, right?
The problem with him is you'reafraid that if he's a backup
quarterback on your team, he isgoing to ruin your team.
It's going to be super toxicand Deion's going to be out
there tweeting all fucking daythat my kid wouldn't have made

(16:50):
that throw Joe Flacco made.
Your kid can't make half thethrows Joe Flacco can make, so
let's stop that right away.
You really think he's going tobe that involved, deion, yeah,
yeah, you really think he'sgoing to be that?
Involved, dion, yeah, yeah,wouldn't you be that involved?
I mean you could ask CalBurton's dad that got kicked out

(17:12):
.
It's not a lot back in the NBA.
I mean, doesn't Deion have toworry about the Buffaloes?
Why does he have to worry aboutthe Buffaloes?
That's his job.
He did his job.
He got his kid to the NFL Twoof them, what do you mean?

(17:37):
Shiloh signed, yeah.

Speaker 1 (17:41):
Not drafted.

Speaker 3 (17:42):
So he's going to be cut week one?
No way, I mean no way.
He might not even make it outof practice day one.
You think the Browns get hardknocks?
Yes, I don't think you can dothat actually.

(18:06):
No, because they were just onit.
And you can't have a newquarterback or something.
Your quarterback has to be atleast one year in the system, or
something like that Head coach,oh, head coach, that's it.
Yeah, because they had it forBaker's rookie year.

Speaker 1 (18:27):
There you go.

Speaker 3 (18:33):
Will you talk about your Bears, if you want?
Why?

Speaker 1 (18:37):
are they my?

Speaker 3 (18:38):
Bears.
I don't know You're a fan ofthem.
They're Bags' Bears.
I guess we'll wait for for bagsif that dude ever gets through
the line at dairy queen.
I'm this is my problem, and Idon't know if we talked about
this or we talked about talkingabout it.
I like a few teams.
I'm mostly like players now andI think it's because of fantasy

(19:01):
football.
It has ruined my diehardnessfor teams, because I'm just so
often cheering for my playersthat that's the way the league
has become for me.
I mean, there's always teamsyou root for, but it's not like

(19:23):
I'm not going out to fight aPacker fan.
I just don't care enough.
You know, I understand whatyou're saying, but like, let's
dig your feet in and you know,don't tell me how to live my

(19:47):
life.
That's fine.
That's true.
I'll always be a Browns fan.
I get it.
I will cheer for the Bears.
But, it's not like I'm livingand dying with them.

Speaker 1 (20:03):
I'm getting pissed off.

Speaker 3 (20:04):
When they suck, they suck Like Mr Bag of Donuts.

Speaker 1 (20:08):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (20:10):
So it's just you know , being a White Sox fan for so
long, they just suck all thetime, so you get used to your
team sucking.
Can we talk about the White Soxreal quick?
Sure, how ghetto are those CityConnect jerseys?
What do you mean?

(20:31):
What do you mean?
The Bulls ones?
Yeah, how ghetto are they?
I don't know.
Ghetto, yes, they're ghetto.
Why are they ghetto?
Come on, dude, look at them.
Okay, all right, we'll ask Bagswhen he gets on here, if they're

(21:14):
What are you going to spendmoney on?

Marlins versus the White Sox?
Oh Jesus, I think my12-year-old's good playing that
game.
It's bad.

Speaker 1 (21:40):
That'll be fun for you, alright that's enough.

Speaker 3 (21:42):
White Sox time.
Anything else?
This is what I mean.
Why?
Why are you so angry?
They suck.
Be done with it.
Don't let it affect your life.
It's okay, bradley, I got mydirt from the playoff game

Dude, just sell the fucking team.

You make enough money with thebulls.

(22:27):
What's going to happen with thebears?
She died.
It had to get split up againstamongst the kids.
I'm sure they can't pay theinheritance tax, although it's
probably in some sheltered trustor something.

(22:47):
Somehow, Maybe they will beforced to sell.
Fuck the Bears.
Who cares?
Why are you so angry?
Because all my sports teamsblow All of them.
You must be a South Pole elf.
What?

Speaker 1 (23:07):
do you mean?

Speaker 3 (23:09):
You're angry all the time, let it go.
I never thought my mostsuccessful team would be the one
I coach.
Never would have thought that.
Yeah, I wouldn't have guessedthat either.

(23:30):
Your Browns aren't going to bethat bad.
Hey, the boys are going to be500 next week for baseball.
None of my other teams aresniffing 500.
That's right.
The team you coached last yearalso didn sniffing 500.

I did tell them.
I said guys, if we lose thistournament last weekend, I go,
I'm quitting, so I'm not goingto coach you guys anymore.
And then we go 0-2 in the bullplay, I go, I'm quitting, so I'm

I was going to say, did theyintentionally throw the games
after that?

(24:30):
But we won a bracket play game,then we got bounced.
So it is what it is.
But they're starting to playsome better ball.

That one's going to beinteresting, bringing the dog
and pony show to a worldwidestage.
Are they having a good time?

(24:51):
I think so.
That's good.
It's the important thing.
I know your baseballorganization won't tell you that

They should be having fun.
No, they are.

Other than that, no way thatkid's gonna get burnt out.

She had another home run, niceGo.
Yeah, I know Bags is sweatingon that over.

(26:39):
He said at the beginning of theprogram Well, when it started
out you didn't think you weregoing to get there either.
Yeah we started out 0-4, losingto four dogshit baseball teams,
one of them being our ownC-team.

Speaker 1 (26:53):
I thought it was going to be a rough year.

Speaker 3 (26:57):
But you know, as good ones do, keep, kept the shit of
, kept the ship afloat, kept theshit afloat, nice ship, ship.
I think.
If you're, if your ship floats,you're eating too much fat.
I believe is how it works.
Yeah, I don't know.
Anyway, hey, any any otherbaseball questions while we're

(27:21):

Anyway, any other baseballquestions while we're here?
No, I'm good on baseball.
We're laying down some great.
We're going to just startbumping all the time I'm laying
down that's what I'm saying.
I mean these kids at 12, ifthey're not batting above 300,

(27:43):
we're just going to wait.

Speaker 1 (27:45):
Sorry, you're laying down some bumps.

Speaker 3 (27:47):
Let's put a little pressure on the defense.
I like it Putting in a couplesqueeze plays.
Yeah, one kid can get it downreally well.
A couple others got to work onit, but it's good.
Also pretty good pitching staff.
Anything else to close it outbefore we get into NBA and NHL

(28:16):
Any other football?

Speaker 1 (28:17):
Oh.

Speaker 3 (28:20):
George Pickens got traded.
Interesting, interesting.
Yeah, I'm not surprised becauseI think he was done.
I don't know that he's going toget along well in Dallas, but
we'll see what happens.
Come here, boy.

(28:44):
We're going to lay down thelaws.
Ain't no chance?
I kind of wanted him to go toCleveland.
Why just?
add to that that would have beenfun together.
That would have beeninteresting.
You think, antonio Brown,antonio Brown, could he come

(29:05):
back?
Are there any free agentsavailable?
Brown Antonio Brown, could hecome back?
Are there any free agentsavailable at receiver that the
Browns can get?
Is Amari Cooper still freeagain, bring him back.
I don't think he'd want back,but if Flacco is starting maybe

(29:27):
they would let him back or he'dwant to come back.
But anyway, well, we will getto.

Speaker 3 (31:45):
Friend is a loose term Acquaintance.

Speaker 2 (31:48):
Acquaintance is mom.

Speaker 3 (31:49):
You said loose, you're talking about the friend
or the mom, the friend.

Speaker 2 (31:55):
You know I don't like my history with my friend's
moms on this podcast beingbrought up right now.

Speaker 1 (32:00):
Oh.

Speaker 2 (32:01):
Considering both people I have talked to once in
the last 30 days, I would say myconnection with the moms are
better.
So, yeah, I would say the momsare more of a friend than the
two daughters of these mothers.

Speaker 1 (32:24):
Good for you.

Speaker 2 (32:26):
I don't know if that's a good thing to be honest
.

Speaker 3 (32:28):
We'll just breeze, right over that.

Speaker 1 (32:31):
Joe, yeah, I think we just got to leave that there.

Speaker 3 (32:34):
You feeling a little nervous about that under.

Speaker 2 (32:38):
You're going to smack me over, and I couldn't be more
happy for you.

Speaker 3 (32:41):
Thank you.

Speaker 2 (32:43):
You deserve it For the shit you went through last
year.
You absolutely deserve it.
Thank you, you deserve it Forthe shit you went through last
year.
You absolutely deserve it.

Speaker 3 (32:49):
Thank you.

Speaker 2 (32:51):
You're welcome.
The one thing you don't deserveis for United to make the
Champions League, which, let'sbe honest, they're going to
choke.
It's not going to happen anyway, Dude dude, they're playing the
Chokers.
Bradley, you're 13th in thePremier League table.
You are the Chokers.
Bradley, you're 13th in thepremier league table.
You are the chokers and what'stottenham?
Tottenham's gonna win a cup.

(33:13):
Harry kane won a cup this year.
Well, it was more of.
It was a pickle dish, but it wasstill a trophy did you know
they're not winning they're,they're winning whatever lucas
is going to the game of coursehe is, and he has an internship
and he bees up and he's fucking.
Bonnie Blue, I've heard enoughabout your little brother, wait

(33:36):
what yeah, wait, what is right,chris?

Speaker 3 (33:48):
Joe, joe, why are you want to talk about the bears
draft?
I would hear your thoughts sureI would love to.

Speaker 2 (33:55):
Um, I haven't gotten a chance to talk about this yet.
I'm actually really excited.
So and I'm glad we didn't dolike a post-draft right away
because, I'll be honest, I don'tknow.
Paul Colson Loveland's a beastAfter some post-draft research.
I'll be honest, when the pickcame in, I was pretty upset.

(34:15):
I didn't want a tight end tobegin with.
However, to pick a tight endand it not be Tyler Warren was
pretty surprising, consideringhe was a clear number one pick.
However, after watching someColson Loveland tape kid's

(34:37):
pretty solid.
I think he's going to be a stud.
And you got to remember Warrenplayed on a Penn State team that
didn't have a wide receiver,catch a touchdown all year and
they played 15 games.

Speaker 3 (34:54):
I also don't really give a shit if my tight end can
take snaps at quarterback orcenter.
That doesn't do me any good.

Speaker 2 (35:01):
Especially when you're tight end number two,
Unless your name's Taysom Hill,go fucking block someone.
So yeah, no.

Speaker 1 (35:12):
I.

Speaker 2 (35:13):
Did we have other needs?
Yes, but I think you get a studat 10 that can start for you
day one.
He's starting, yeah he's thesecond tight end.
Who am I going to put out there?
Mercedes Lewis.

Speaker 3 (35:26):
Yeah, Mercedes Lewis is the fucking team captain
spread Mercedes Lewis 90% of thesnaps he was in for last year
were run plays.

Speaker 2 (35:36):
It was pretty fucking obvious.
I'm sitting 20 miles away fromthe stadium watching it on TV,
going, oh there's 81, we'rerunning the ball, is it?
Is it more obvious than whenDoug?

Speaker 3 (35:44):
Kramer comes into the game that he gets the on TV
going.

Speaker 1 (35:45):
Oh, there's 81.

Speaker 2 (35:46):
We're running the ball We've got to switch it up.

Speaker 3 (35:47):
Is it more obvious than when Doug Kramer comes into
the game that he gets the ball?

Speaker 2 (35:53):
No, that was a one-time thing, so I'm going to
go with no, that was one of 10snaps.
That was 10% compared to 90%.

Speaker 3 (36:02):
What about Robert?
Tanya Is he still on the roster.

Speaker 2 (36:08):
He might be right now , but he probably won't be come
August.

Speaker 3 (36:12):
Does it matter?

Speaker 2 (36:13):
No, it doesn't.
Actually I'd rather have RobertTunyon than Mercedes Lewis.
But moving forward into roundtwo, we could go into.
You get Luther Burton III,which I'm pumped.
I actually got the third on theback of my jersey right now, so
it's nice to have another thirdin the Chicagoland area.

(36:35):
So pumped about that.
I think he is the number oneright receiver in the draft.
I might be biased.
I think Matthew Golden's dogshit and I think he's going to
be a wide receiver three on thePackers and they spent the first
round pick on him and I get atight end and a wide receiver
three in two picks.
Pretty pumped about that.

(36:58):
And then I didn't love the trade.
For what was it?
Pick 44.
We it Pick 44.
We had 42 and 44.
I didn't love the trade for 44.
Yeah, you trade back in thesecond.
You get two more second roundpicks, which is cool, but I

(37:18):
don't know if we used themtotally right.
I really would have liked toget Caleb Johnson somewhere in
there.
I think he's going to be a studin Pittsburgh.
They're running back from Iowa,Chris.

Speaker 3 (37:30):
I know who Caleb Johnson is, okay.

Speaker 2 (37:32):
You looked at me confused.

Speaker 3 (37:35):
I was digging through the Bears roster 80 players
yeah, a lot of guys.

Speaker 2 (37:43):
We had like.
What 10 draft picks this yearyeah, I also don't understand.

Speaker 3 (37:49):
Are we good enough to be picking a tight end and a
wide receiver that early?

Speaker 2 (37:53):
no, no, but here's the thing and this is a
situation we ran into last yearwhere, all right, cool, you got
your quarterback, you spent yournumber one overall pick on a qb
, you didn't trade back, youdidn't keep justin, which
probably would have been thesafe play and, as ryan poles, I
get it, you want to go, get yourguy, you want to make your mark

(38:14):
.
But this is your year where,okay, cool, you went and got the
quarterback and then you wentand got the coach.
If your offense isn't top fiveby the end of this year, then
this draft was a mistake.
I'm excited to see how it playsout, but you have to have a top

(38:35):
five offense in the league.
You need to win the NFC Northor this draft is a bust.

Speaker 3 (38:42):
Bro, I think if they get second that's a win of a
season in the NFC North.

Speaker 2 (38:50):
Am I getting a wild card spot?

Speaker 3 (38:54):
Maybe I don't know.

Speaker 2 (38:57):
That's a giant, yes or no.
But yeah, could I deal withsecond and a wild card spot?
Sure, but if I go 10-7 and Imiss the playoffs, You're not
winning 10 games.
Sure, Brad and the Brownsdrafted two quarterbacks that
aren't going to start 10 gamesin their career.

Speaker 3 (39:19):
Don't forget two running backs too.

Speaker 2 (39:23):
Who did what running backs did they draft Quinn,
john-junkins and Samson?
Oh, that's right.

Speaker 3 (39:26):
Who did what running backs did they draft Quinshawn,
jenkins and Samson?

Speaker 2 (39:29):
Oh, that's right.
I can't believe they wentQuinshawn first.

Speaker 3 (39:36):
He came into the building after he got drafted
and asked for number two.
I don't think Shador is goingto appreciate that, but whatever
, who took number two?
Who was it?
I don't think Shador is goingto appreciate that.

Speaker 2 (39:46):
but whatever, who took number two?
Who was it?
It was Brad.
You know his name.
He's been in the league forlike eight years.
He's a bottom-tier widereceiver.

Speaker 3 (39:59):
On the Browns.

Speaker 2 (40:01):
Yeah, if you guys haven't talked about this, we
have to.
Who was number two on theBrowns?
Deandre Carter, oh yeah.
Deandre Carter has had sevennumbers.

Speaker 3 (40:16):
That's potentially the best career move DeAndre
Carter has ever made.
He can sell that number toShador for $10 million.

Speaker 2 (40:24):
Here's the thing Shador has settled on 12, but
DeAndre Carter, since hisfreshman year of college in what
this is year eight in theleague, has worn nine different
numbers.
So that's 11 years, ninenumbers.
Not a single one of them hasbeen single digits.

(40:44):
This year he decides to go twoDirectly after the draft.
So yeah, that's a littleinteresting, to say the least.
I think it was a career move toget paid.
Shador didn't buy it.

Speaker 3 (41:06):
Browns have to have hard knocks.

Speaker 1 (41:09):
They should, they don't, they don't at all.

Speaker 3 (41:13):
Who do you want?

Speaker 2 (41:14):
to have hard knocks on.
I don't know A team that has achance to win more than three
games this year.
Who's your starting quarterback?
Kenny Pickett.

Speaker 3 (41:26):
No, joe Flacco, the fuck are you on?
Get off our ass.

Speaker 2 (41:29):
Joe Flacco is your starting quarterback, bradley.
I know he led you to a playoffgame once and he got blown out
by a rookie quarterback with onewide receiver.
However, that was also that'scomeback player of the year Joe
Flacco.

Speaker 3 (41:46):
Super Bowl MVP.

Speaker 2 (41:47):
Joe.

Speaker 3 (41:48):
Flacco.

Speaker 2 (41:49):
He was a comeback player of the year because he
was old and it was two years ago.
He is now two years older.
Where has he been for the lasttwo seasons, brad?

Speaker 3 (42:03):
He's on the Colts for one season.

Speaker 2 (42:05):
Sitting behind Anthony Richardson Gardner
Minshew.

Speaker 3 (42:10):
Nope, gardner wasn't on the team, just AR5.

Speaker 2 (42:15):
And who was the other quarterback, because I don't
remember Joe Flacco getting manysnaps last year.

Speaker 3 (42:21):
He got a ton Three games and when AR tapped himself
out because he was tired, yeahyou were right.

Speaker 2 (42:29):
Yeah, no, you're right there.

Speaker 3 (42:31):
You don't know ball.

Speaker 2 (42:33):
No offense to Pierce Brad.
Shut the fuck up.
You don't even know who DeAndreCarter is, and he's on your
team.

Speaker 3 (42:38):
Yeah, I do.
He's the receiver from the Jets.

Speaker 2 (42:41):
I just fucking told you that.

Speaker 3 (42:44):
He's wearing number two.

Speaker 1 (42:46):
Yeah, no, it's okay.

Speaker 2 (42:51):
Oh, by the way, the Pope's from Chicago, I can call
it now.

Speaker 1 (42:57):
Where were you going with that?

Speaker 2 (43:00):
It doesn't matter.
All I have to say is I do likethe Kyle Mungai pick at seven.
I think he's not bad who?
What I hate is the kid fromRutgers.
He's a Tyreek Cohen 2.0.
He's like 5'8".

(43:23):
All right, enough of the.

Speaker 3 (43:26):
Bears, they suck.
Hang on a minute.

Speaker 2 (43:28):
You're the fucking guy that asked me hey, joe, what
do you think about the Bearsdraft?

Speaker 3 (43:32):
Yeah, a half hour ago the.

Speaker 2 (43:33):
Bears draft.
You go enough with the Bears,Enough with the Bears, so pick a
fucking side.
Which one do you want?

Speaker 3 (43:42):
We're done.

Speaker 1 (43:42):
I'm here to give the people what they want.

Speaker 3 (43:48):
Dude.

Speaker 2 (43:48):
A draft recap doesn't include their seventh round
picks from Rutgers when itincludes a skill position that
might get snaps this year.
Yes, it does.
Dude you were having thatfucking clown from Hard Knocks
get snaps last year and he wasfumbling in the game the clown
from.

Speaker 3 (44:05):
Hard Knocks.
Give me a name.
I have no idea who you'retalking about.
Hold on, I'll pull it up.

Speaker 2 (44:08):
Neither do I.

Speaker 3 (44:09):
I'm just going to type in, I'm going to Google
Hard Knocks clown.

Speaker 2 (44:13):
Oh my God, I can see your face for the first time
tonight.
You need to invest in a ringlight.
This looks like Revenge of theSith over here.

Speaker 3 (44:22):
We haven't unlocked his character yet.

Speaker 2 (44:24):
It looks like I'm having a conversation with the
Hacker Group Anonymous.
I don't know what's going onover there, but it's hard to do
anything right now I'm gassedfor my softball games.
I sped home.
I didn't want to look at myphone because I'm a safe driver.

(44:45):
I'm like six fireball shotsdeep tonight.
I just want to talk about theBears draft.
Brad wants to cut me off.

Speaker 3 (44:53):
Valus Jones Jr.

Speaker 2 (44:56):
Yeah, that's because it was on special teams.
Yeah, he got snapped.
He got cut in week four, soboo-hoo cry about it.

Speaker 3 (45:12):
Do you two need to go to counseling together this
marriage counseling?

Speaker 2 (45:16):
Brett needs to get his head out of his ass.
You can't ask me a question totalk about something and say
we're done talking about it.
That's not how conversationswork.

Speaker 3 (45:27):
No need to hear about the seventh round draft pick on
a dog shit football team.

Speaker 2 (45:31):
Oh my God, but I got to talk about Quinshaw, Juckins,
shador Sanders and Dylanfucking Gabriel.
Are you fucking kidding me?
Chris is an Oregon fan and heknows he's dog shit.

Speaker 3 (45:42):
I didn't even bring up that small person.
Great college quarterback.
Yeah right.

Speaker 2 (45:46):
So is Will Howard.
Will, I didn't even bring upthat small person.
Great college quarterback yeahRight, so was Will Howard.

Speaker 3 (45:50):
Will Howard was not a great college quarterback.
He only won in one place he wasat.

Speaker 2 (45:54):
Will Howard won a national championship.
Okay, you want to discreditthat?

Speaker 3 (46:01):
Yeah, he literally just said he only won in one
place he was at.
He had the highest paid roster,probably the most talented to
somehow fuck up and lose toMichigan, who couldn't throw a
fucking ball.
Eight yards.
They lost to fucking Michigan.

Speaker 2 (46:20):
Hey, chris, you know what the worst part is, what
when it mattered, they fuckingbeat Oregon.

Speaker 3 (46:26):
So let's take it, and they also lost to oregon.
So who gives a shit?
Uh, nobody, because it was theregular season oh those games
don't count, that's right, oh,that's right it only matters
when someone decides it matters.
Got it, wins don't count, makesMakes sense.
You know those Ohio State fanswere upset about the loss to

(46:48):
Oregon at all during the regularseason.
They didn't care one bit, it'snot like Ryan.

Speaker 1 (46:53):
Day's job is on the line.

Speaker 3 (46:54):
Yes, they did.
They cried for months.
Dan Manning cheated.
He put an extra guy on thefield.
This is bullshit.
We need a rule change.
Shut the fuck up.

Speaker 2 (47:05):
You want to talk about a game that was played in
October.

Speaker 3 (47:10):
You brought it up.
You can't pull a Brad.

Speaker 2 (47:13):
Hey, this is what I'm going to say.
I get it okay.

Speaker 1 (47:18):
I understand.
What do you get?

Speaker 2 (47:19):
I'm going to talk about a game that happened in
January, for the next six monthsuntil the Bears play the
Packers again.
However, you guys played againand you lost.
You no longer get to talk aboutthat game okay, got it.

Speaker 3 (47:35):
That makes sense.
We'll go with that from now onnow.

Speaker 1 (47:39):
No, no no, that's the standard.

Speaker 3 (47:40):
now, if you played again, you can't bring up a game
from before the last game thatwas ever played.
Hang on, that's a standard.
So the Knicks are winning.
The NBA Got it.

Speaker 2 (47:53):
And I agree.
I think the Knicks sweep theCeltics.

Speaker 3 (47:56):
Oh.

Speaker 2 (47:58):
Brett, the Celtics blew two 20-point leads at home
All right.

Speaker 3 (48:03):
Hold on One thing at a time.
One thing at a time, that's amissed 30-point lead last game
Stop.

Speaker 2 (48:08):
Let me finish my fucking thought.
Let me finish my thought.
If you had a sniff a sniff ofhaving that college football
playoff game end within a40-point deficit.
Sure you can talk about it, butwhen you get blown out like
somebody's fucking stepdaughterin the back of a truck in 1985,

(48:30):
you don't get to say shit, okay.

Speaker 3 (48:34):
You're a fucking clown.

Speaker 2 (48:35):
if you think you can tell me what I can and can't say
, that's all I'm going to sayLook, we can set the standard,
but if that game was a littlebit closer to the college
football playoff sure we cantalk about November all you want
.
I'm talking about the last 10years.

Speaker 3 (48:51):
What's the difference ?

Speaker 2 (48:54):
The last 10 years Oregon's made the college
football playoff twice.
Hasn't won it once.

Speaker 3 (48:59):
And Ohio State lost to them what three, four times.

Speaker 2 (49:04):
How many times in the college football playoffs Zero,
okay, so when it matters, zero.

Speaker 3 (49:11):
Oh yeah, that's right , only when it matters.
That's the only time Ohio Stateshows up for games.
We don't care, that's fine.
I'll be honest, I knew you werea Ryan Day cocksucker.
I knew it.
I thought it was Brad thiswhole time, but it was you, yeah
.

Speaker 2 (49:27):
Me and Kirk Herbstreit.
We don't care about the regularseason.

Speaker 1 (49:30):
It doesn't matter.

Speaker 2 (49:32):
The boosters don't care about the regular season.
The people who the playoffcommittee doesn't care about the
regular season, it doesn'tmatter.

Speaker 3 (49:42):
Wins don't matter, losses don't matter, it's just
how you look.

Speaker 2 (49:46):
It's how much money your team costs.

Speaker 3 (49:48):
How many stickers are on your helmet?

Speaker 2 (49:50):
How many you've been in the past five years and were
you in the college footballplayoff the year before?
That's all that matters.
Alabama lost three games.
They're complaining.
They should be in.
That's a delusional fan base Iunderstand, but still, they kind
of had an argument.
It's like yeah, we've beenreally good for the past 20

(50:11):
years.
Put us in, we're a good team.

Speaker 3 (50:13):
That should never be an argument that bugs the shit
out of me.

Speaker 1 (50:20):
It's like fuck off.

Speaker 2 (50:21):
But the playoff committee thought about it, put
him at what 13?
And then they lost the michiganand then they lost the michigan
in a bowl game.
So no, the committee doesn'tcare about the regular season,
they don't care about wins, theydon't care about losses.
They care about the last fiveyears, how much your team costs,
how much money you can makethem in the playoffs.

Speaker 3 (50:42):
That's the only thing they care about.
That's it.
The last one you just said,that's it, it's all that matters
.
So why did they win the MN it?

Speaker 2 (50:49):
doesn't matter.
Kirk Herbstreet was right thiswhole fucking time it just took
me six months to figure out.

Speaker 3 (50:57):
We don't think he was right.
We understand that.
That's how it is Correct.

Speaker 2 (51:15):
Yeah, right, we understand that.
That's how it is correct.
But, yeah, okay, sure, yes,enough about college football.
I, I don't.
I don't even know who's on whatteam right now there's like 2
000 players still in the portal.
It doesn't I don't care, Forsome reason Illinois is ranked
10 preseason yeah, no way, noway, I get it.
I love it.
They do have like 17 of 22starters returning, I understand
it.
They do win in the Big Ten, buttheir schedule last year was a

(51:37):
fucking cakewalk, except forOregon and Penn State, and they
lost both of those games.

Speaker 3 (51:47):
I don't think they scored in either of them.

Speaker 2 (51:50):
I don't think so either.
So Drew Altmyer returningreally means nothing to me.
I think it's Luke, isn't?

Speaker 3 (51:57):
it Luke.
Yeah, Luke Altmyer.

Speaker 2 (52:00):
Luke, excuse me, you're right, it is Luke.
That's on me, that's my bet.

Speaker 3 (52:03):
You got confused with Penn State.
I think, that's where the Drewcame from.

Speaker 2 (52:10):
Excuse me, luke Altmeier, returning means
nothing.
Your defense.

Speaker 3 (52:14):
It's like Rock returning for his sixth year of
school there.
Who cares?
Move on.

Speaker 2 (52:20):
By the way, did you see Cam Rising?
Is retired Yep.

Speaker 3 (52:25):
Probably should have retired six years ago dude, can
you blame him?

Speaker 2 (52:31):
like he's not going to the league, how about?
As well, make a couple bucksbefore you go play in the xfl
chris, how about the miami titangetting drafted before Chador?

Speaker 3 (52:43):
The Miami Titan is good, did Xavier Restrepo?

Speaker 2 (52:47):
get drafted.

Speaker 3 (52:48):
No unrestricted free agent to Tennessee, so he's back
with Cam Ward.

Speaker 2 (52:52):
Of course, that was his first request.
He's Xavier.

Speaker 3 (52:58):
It's kind of electric .

Speaker 2 (53:01):
Yeah, I get it.

Speaker 3 (53:03):
Are you done now with your Bears recap I don't think
I've said anything.

Speaker 2 (53:08):
Bears related for seven minutes.

Speaker 1 (53:15):
Honestly, I'm tired at this point I'm done, I'm done
.

Speaker 3 (53:19):
You're done.

Speaker 2 (53:22):
What's next?

Speaker 3 (53:25):
We could talk about LeBron.
Are we talking about?
Lebron oh no, let's go back toone of Joey's takes that Knicks
are going to sweep the Celtics.

Speaker 2 (53:35):
Oh, yes, yes, Joe Mazzulla.
One has no control over thisteam anymore, because I know
he's a good coach.
I've seen it, however, whenwe're chucking up 45 threes in a
game and when I am kickingeverything out instead of just
taking it to the fucking rim,when I'm up 20 yeah, it's not

(53:59):
the shooting 43s, it's themissing 30 of them.
That's the problem, if you'recold stop shooting well, they
say fucking live and die by thethree.
They're getting killed, theyare dying.
If you got a 20 point you don'tneed to shoot threes anymore
take the ball to the fucking rim, get fouled, get them in

(54:21):
trouble and then it's fuckingbarbecue chicken from there.
Cookies, Easy.
But apparently NBA-level mindswho get paid millions of dollars
can't figure that out At thatpoint.
And yeah, are the Celticstalented enough to come back

(54:43):
from 2-0 down playing on theroad?
For sure.

Speaker 3 (54:45):
Alright, Joe.

Speaker 2 (54:48):
This seems more of a what's that.

Speaker 3 (54:51):
Who's more likely to come back, the Cavs or the
Celtics?

Speaker 1 (55:02):
Cavs.

Speaker 2 (55:06):
I think the Cavs are better and have less pressure on
them.
I think the Knicks are going toget every single call for the
rest of this series and I thinkthey're going to go to an NBA
championship, because they makethe NBA the most money.

Speaker 3 (55:23):
I wonder what the odds are for that Celtics-Knicks
series right now Probably evenmoney.
You think the Knicks got to befavored, right?

Speaker 2 (55:38):
No, I don't.
The Celtics were 10.5 pointfavorites in game two after
losing, look if you can get theCeltics at plus money.
I think it's a good bet, but Idon't think they are plus money.

Speaker 3 (55:56):
Celtics are only plus 140 to win the Eastern
Conference.
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (56:02):
Yeah, Celtics are.

Speaker 3 (56:04):
Celtics are minus 112 to win the series.
Knicks are minus 104.

Speaker 2 (56:09):
Yeah, celtics are still the favorite.
Wow, I hate the Knicks.

Speaker 3 (56:13):
Joe Cavs are plus 160 .

Speaker 2 (56:17):
I don't.
I don't hate that.
The Pacers are solid, therese,halliburton, but his dad's has
his crazy shit done, but hisdad's banned, can't come to
games.

Speaker 3 (56:29):
He's played better, apparently.

Speaker 2 (56:31):
I guess, I don't know .
I haven't watched a lot ofPacers basketball this year.
I have watched a lot of Cavsbut not a lot of Pacers ball,
which is weird because I fuckinghate basketball.
But I think I've watched moreCavaliers games than anybody
else this year.

Speaker 3 (56:49):
Definitely more than me.

Speaker 2 (56:50):
I love betting on Jared Allen rebounds.

Speaker 1 (56:53):
I do like that bet as well.
Yeah, jared Allen, 12 plus.

Speaker 3 (56:57):
Being a basketball Pope's, a big East guy.
Just throw that little, justthrow that little.

Speaker 2 (57:02):
Bill Inova correct.

Speaker 1 (57:04):
Yep.

Speaker 2 (57:06):
Yeah, Nova's going crazy right now but also a White
Sox fan, so maybe he'll saysome prayers for us, because we
need a few.
We need a few prayers from thePope.

Speaker 3 (57:21):
Or he'll give the double to Jerry Second time
we've wished that man to die.
I haven't wished him to die.

Speaker 2 (57:32):
I didn't wish.
I've never wished death uponJerry, that's not true.
I have, but I believe I'vewished death upon myself more.
So I don't have to watch thefucking White Sox, because when
they're on I'm going to turn iton.

Speaker 3 (57:46):
You're voluntarily going to watch them tonight.

Speaker 2 (57:50):
You're correct, the tickets were free.

Speaker 3 (57:55):
Do we have stadium club passes Because it's going
to be cold?

Speaker 2 (58:00):
They are not stadium club passes.
It's as close as you can getwithout being in the stadium
club 83 degrees tomorrow.
Boo-hoo dress warm.
I don't know what to tell you.

Speaker 3 (58:16):
Wait, what's the temperature going to be tomorrow
?

Speaker 2 (58:18):
In Charlotte 83.

Speaker 3 (58:20):
Oh, fuck you.

Speaker 2 (58:22):
Yeah he doesn't live here, Brad.
He moved with his company Likea good boy.

Speaker 3 (58:29):
Shut up.
You're a job merchant.
I get you your job.

Speaker 2 (58:33):
I'm not a job merchant.

Speaker 3 (58:35):
Don't speak unless spoken to Job merchant.

Speaker 2 (58:39):
Who me or Chris?

Speaker 3 (58:41):
You.
I will speak whenever I've beenwell, please.

Speaker 2 (58:45):
Don't be mad at me, because I took the job you told
me to apply for.
It's on you.
Don't say anything next time.
I would have never done it.

Speaker 3 (58:51):
Exactly Hush what Simmer down boy.

Speaker 2 (58:58):
You weren't in the six-on-one interview with me.
I don't want to hear it.

Speaker 3 (59:02):
Seven Trevor's takes up two seats.

Speaker 1 (59:05):
Lurking in the background.

Speaker 2 (59:07):
You would see him if he was in the background.

Speaker 3 (59:08):
You can't mess with him.
He's in the background.
Any other NBA I really don'tcare about the NBA, no me
neither.

Speaker 2 (59:22):
I will say the playoffs have been very
entertaining.
If you do want to turn it on,it's been fun to watch.

Speaker 3 (59:29):
It's a nice casual watch.

Speaker 2 (59:32):
Yeah, for sure.

Speaker 3 (59:33):
Joe, I'll let you answer the question I started
with.
Chris Got it.
Do you think Steph Curry passesLeBron, if he wins at all this
year?

Speaker 2 (59:45):
Not even fucking close.

Speaker 3 (59:48):
Yes or no?

Speaker 2 (59:50):
I think Steph Curry was and, regardless if he wins
this year or not, I think StephCurry was a more influential
player.
However, I don't think he's abetter player.
Lebron's more all around thanSteph Curry ever will player.
Lebron's more all-around thanSteph Curry ever will be LeBron
can play all five positions.
Steph Curry plays one, maybetwo.

Speaker 3 (01:00:14):
Interesting.
I think we'll have that debatea little later on.
I think that's pretty much whatI said.
Yeah, yeah, let's get into thepicks.

Speaker 3 (01:00:44):

think they won that game.

Yep, that's the problem.
We don't care.

Speaker 2 (01:02:38):
Okay, you're right, you're only three losses away
from relegation, but I wouldn'tcare either.
Nope, relegation secured.

So Dodgers money line Againstsome dude.

Speaker 2 (01:03:15):

Big game for the boys in blue.
They're on the road.
You win this, you jump up to, Ithink third, at least fourth in

(01:03:47):
the standings Gets you a hellof a lot closer to the Champions
League.
It's going to be a hell of agame.
I don't hate the plus 260 aswell on the tie, but I got to go
with Chelsea just for the winon this one.

Speaker 3 (01:04:06):
All right For my second pick, staying in the prim
because I own the prim.
I will be taking FulhamMoneyline 3-way against Everton.
Fulham over Everton, everton.

(01:04:27):
I'm going to go the team acrossthe city.
I'm going to take the Cubs teamtotal over three and a half
against the Mets tonight.

Speaker 1 (01:04:36):
What are the odds on that.

Speaker 3 (01:04:38):
Minus 110.
Who's on the phone?
C Holmes.
He has a 295 ERA.
Clay Holmes.

Speaker 1 (01:04:49):
Yeah, yes, clay, not bad.

Speaker 2 (01:04:54):
I like that bet.
I don't hate that.
What were the odds on thatMinus?

Speaker 3 (01:04:58):
110.
Minus 110.
That's pretty solid.
Well, the way the Cubs havebeen hitting the ball should be
good.

Speaker 2 (01:05:04):
Yeah, no, I'm going to go with a good old, reliable
so far for me this year.
I don't know if I can get oddson this.
I know what the usual averageis.
Hang on, brad, go ahead, let mesee if I can pull this up hang
on, brad, go ahead, let me seeif I can pull this up.

Speaker 3 (01:05:26):
Sure for my third and final pick.
I'll be taking BrentfordMoneyline in the prem.
Brentford over Ipswich.

Speaker 1 (01:05:38):
No, I can't Okay.

Speaker 2 (01:05:42):
That's fine, I'll switch it up.
We're going to go with a prettyeasy bet here.
We are going to go first fiveinning money line.
We're going to be taking theMiami Marlins at minus 150.

(01:06:02):
A little bit of a Brad pickhere.
First five innings money lineMax Myers is nasty on the bump
for the Marlins Racing a prettybad.
I don't even know who this guyis, b Wilson.

Speaker 3 (01:06:21):
On the Sox?
I don't know.
We'll figure it out.

Speaker 2 (01:06:27):
Doesn't matter.
Meyer's pretty gross Goodfantasy pitcher this year, we're
going to go with him in thefirst five.
Marlon's first five money lineminus 150 tonight against the
White Sox.

Speaker 3 (01:06:41):
Can I ask you a question?
Sure, I mean mean the full gameis minus 150.
Also, I think, why do youprefer or I guess, why in this
case did you pick first five notprefer?
Because that's not always thecase.

Speaker 2 (01:06:56):
But I can't.
I can't control a bullpen.
I know who's starting, I knowwho's going to go at least four
or five innings so I tend tolead first five when I see a
mismatch in a pitching matchup.
That's the main reason, and Icould be wrong.
I'll be honest.
The Sox are one of the betterteams in the MLB in the first

(01:07:17):
inning right now, which is nuts,I think.
Their year fees hit like sevenof the last nine games.
If you want to take the over onthe year fee, it's plus .04.
I don't hate that either.
That's the reason why I gofirst five.
I also used to ride one back inthe day when Dallas Keiko was

(01:07:40):
still on the Sox.
That dude would win the firstfive innings every time.

Speaker 3 (01:07:47):
Yeah Well, that's going to do it for the picks.
