So things that are getting a little bit weird in
the NFC West, all right, So first and foremost, the
l A Rams release Darryl Henderson. He's our leading rusher
on the season. And we've got the cam Aker situation,
(01:24):
and we've got Matt Stafford and the concussion protocol, and
we've got the elbow injury he suffered this offseason. Like it,
it feels odd everything that's happened with the l A
Rams three and seven. Yeah, three and seven, I believe,
but it is just another layer to the weirdness that
(01:47):
is the l A Rams. And apparently they're just gonna
roll with cam Akers who didn't want to be there
three weeks ago. Apparently that's the plan there with the
l A Rams. I don't get it. I don't get
it either. I mean, what the hell is going on
in l A I don't know. It doesn't make any sense.
Almost like if you throw a fuss or you make
a big deal about it, like you're the one that
ends up staying that the one ends up going. They're
(02:07):
so bad, man, They're they're they're atrocious. They're one of
the worst, and the pick, their first round pick, goes
to Detroit, So the Lions are just gonna pick up
on a top five pick. At this point, it's looking like,
I mean, at least headed in that direction. After the season,
the lines have ad where there's some hope and some promise,
Like it just feels like the windows shut for the
(02:29):
Rams and now we just get to see who sticks
around for the aftermath or and and who decides you're
just gonna get up and go. Like there's been some
speculation about Matt Stafford maybe walking away, that maybe retirement
would be on the table. We know Sean McVeigh talked about,
you know that the broadcasting booth and the rumor going
to to be a broadcaster. It feels like next year
(02:51):
could be Sean mcveigh's final you're at the Rams, depending
on how things go next year, gone done deal. You
know what do you saying this year? I don't know,
you know, I don't know. You go into a season
and for most of the off season it's like, is
he going to return or is he going to leave?
Your best player same exact thing. Is he gonna go?
(03:14):
Is he gonna leave? Now the best player gets an extension,
the the head coach is coming back, and then this
is the product that you guys put on. Have we
even said Aaron Donald's name this year? Not much like
I mean, god bless like most dominant dude that I've seen,
most likely ever played played on the defensive side of
(03:35):
the ball. I haven't said his name. Whose name have
we said? Who has been a difference maker for this
Rams team? Cooper Company's engine When Cooper Cup was in,
I'll give you Cooper Cup. Now he's gone. So I
just you know, I don't know. I think this is
this is we're we're not driving this car anymore. We're
(03:58):
we're gonna trade this one in and we're going to
try to bring a new one off of the lot.
Now what that looks like, what to make the model is?
Who's the driver? I don't know. And I think that
that's going to have to be a hard conversation because
I just don't think that the l A market, it's
not it's not established enough where you could have a
(04:19):
product fall as far off as this one has after
building such an amazing uh facility to play in and
entertain your your your fans. I just don't think that
they can just say, Okay, yep, we're gonna give this
another one or two years and see where we're at
there and reassess and reevaluate. You're you're bad. You're really bad,
(04:41):
and you're bad in a number one media market, number
two media market. You you have got to be aggressive
in how you do things. And I don't know what
that that what that means off season wise, but I
wouldn't say anyone is safe, including the head coach. Well,
I don't know that they're gonna move on from him,
I'll put it that way. I mean, I don't think
(05:02):
there's any thought in their mind about that. It's just
that whether or not he wants to do this, and
and maybe there's a thought that he doesn't want to
go through a rebuild, because that's what's what that's what's this,
this is gonna be. You know, the whole F ThM
picks only works for a window of time and then
you find yourselves in cap hell, which is what they're
gonna be in. So at this point, you know, I
don't think they're moving on from Sean McVeigh. It's more
(05:23):
Sean McVeigh saying I don't want to have to go through,
you know, two three years of us trying to turn
over this roster and get it to where we need
to and get a better cap situation to make another run.
I'd rather go have some peace of mind, you know,
go start a family, all that stuff, and focus on
on my personal enjoyment, and then come back to this
team or somewhere else once they're in a better situation.
(05:46):
I could see that scenario playing out. And also Jalen
Ramsey's at it down here too as well. Right, I mean,
it's hard to ever say he has a down here,
like the guy is so good. He's he's had a
different standard, you know. I think any cornerback when you're
not getting the rush to help out to a degree,
you're gonna have some you know, balls completed on you,
(06:07):
that sort of thing. But he's still one of the
best in the league in my opinion. Um And then
there's this in the NFC West dateline Mexico City where
the Arizona Cardinals who fired their offensive line coach and
running game coordinator Sean Coogler. Um, Well, there was an
(06:31):
instant in Mexico City on Sunday night, and they sent
him home before the game on Monday, and according to
sources who spoke with the ESPN, he was fired because
apparently he groped a woman in Mexico City over the weekend.
Mexican authorities were notified of the incident. It happened on
Sunday night, as we mentioned, and they informed the Cardinals.
(06:52):
They fired him, send him back to Arizona on that
flight Monday morning, and the Arizona Cardinals had just gotten
there on set matter day, so he was there twenty
four hours. A little bit over twenty four hours, grow uped,
a woman got clipped and sent back home and another
so so another layer to what a disaster it's been
for the Arizona Cardinals this season. Um now they are
(07:14):
being featured on Hard Knocks right now. I wonder if
that will be featured. I'm gonna assume that's probably not
gonna be on Hard Knocks. Makes the episode way more entertaining.
You know, put part ways and move forward. I would
assume you know you'd want you'd want to get away
from your responsible Is that? How how moronic is that?
How asinine is that? How everything else dumb? Stupid? Like
(07:36):
how I mean honestly, like you're a coach in the
National Football League. You got it made like you scream
out some guys for a couple of hours a day,
watch some film, put it on paper. Here's a play.
You've got other people. You've got quality control, people that
basically do your job for you. Break up to take
(07:57):
you got film, people that that organized break up to
tape by down distance and you know tendencies. All you
have to do is get in front of the room,
talk to your group, make sure they know what their
objectives are for the game, and keep it moving. And
you're gonna mess that up over you know, a good time.
It's just as strange to me. Man. So the decision
(08:19):
making that some people make and listen, I don't know
what people be going on and have going on in
their personal lives. And I'm not one to judge. And
I'm definitely not the guy that's holding the stone and
and and throws it and puts his hand behind his back.
I'm I'll be the first one to tell you I'm
not a perfect dude. I'll be the first one to
tell you that that I have my shortcomings and I
definitely have lapses and judgment and in my own personal
(08:42):
life at times, I'll be the first one to tell you.
But what I don't understand is how do you allow
yourself to make decisions like if if it was because
of alcohol, like you gotta know your limitations. If it's
one good drink and you step a way, then you
step away. You find yourself where you're drinking and you're
(09:04):
to the point of blacking out, or you're slobbering all
over yourself and you're saying and you're doing things that
are very chauvinistic or very disrespectful, and that in that manner,
I hope you're with somebody who's responsible enough when you're
not responsible because your dumbass needs somebody to help you.
I hope that you're you're responsible enough to get up
out of there if you find yourself in that that
(09:26):
type of scenario. And when I hear stories like this man,
it's always a disappointing deal because what are you? What
are you? Why are you behaving that way? Like groping
a woman? Like come on, man, like where you what? Like?
What did you get out of it? Was it worth it? Today?
You're sitting at home today? Was it worth it? I
can guarantee you we all know what the answer to
that is now, and now it stays with them, and
(09:49):
good luck you know who knows. Listen, we don't know
all the details of it, but that is the report
that's out there. And and also if you're gonna be
on one of those road trips, I would assume you can.
Don't want to play it cool, You can't. You can't
mess around or maybe act the way you normally act
in some of those other areas, because they're not they're
not playing around like anybody who's ever been to Mexico.
The federalies don't play around like. They drive around a
(10:11):
little differently than what we do in the States. I'll
tell you that I had a buddy get arrested and
and nobody could get a hold of him. He didn't
have his phone on him because he got drunk in public.
He didn't he didn't grow up anybody, but got drunk
drunk in public, got picked up, got popped, and and
was just disappeared for hours. And the cats be in
their pickup trucks and they be pulled up. They'd be
(10:34):
pulled up like we'll be getting sensitive about how our
law enforcement people be moving around. There's okay, go check
out what's going, Okay, try that with them over there, dude.
I was just gonna say, people who get upset about
our law enforcement must not travel. Like I'll just leave
it at that, because you can't complain when you travel.
(10:55):
You go other places, you see how like the police
operate or act, or you see how quickly you could
have things taken away from you or even for example.
And I don't know, I'm not gonna get off on
a big tangent on this, but I I was text
with Jenny Taft, who's over in Qatar right now, and
she was like basically saying how sexist is like bottom line,
like she can't go into the stadium in the same
(11:17):
spot as men. Well, yeah, but it's a little different.
She doesn't have to do that as much as the
others over there. But just even the fact that she
can't go in through the same entrance as a man
going through security. She's like, I've experienced certain things. She's
like this, this is the tops of that, and so
(11:37):
and I just I sat there and I thought to myself, like, man,
we have it so good in this country, but a
lot of times we don't know it because we never
go anywhere else. To that that sort of perspective about
just how free we really are when it comes down
to it. Man, I told you I've been to Mexico
City quite a few times. And even when you go
to like Cabo and different places like that, they be
(11:58):
on their pickup trucks and they'd be ready for war. Yeah,
Like they don't look like police. They look like the military.
We weren't by Buddy's bashment party in Cancoon and we're like, oh,
let's go downtown. You know it was born by the hotel.
The hotel sucked and we're like, let's let's go downtown.
We go downtown and they're driving through the streets in
tanks with rifles. If they pull up on you, don't
(12:22):
be on that. I'm filming you. We're getting it off film.
I wish you would like in New York City, they
they've got carriage rides in in Mexico, they've got guys
on tanks. In New York and New York they do
have assault rifles. They do like in certain places they
have assault right York. New York is one of those
(12:42):
places where they do have us. They will go to
they will cut you down in New York. But I'm
telling you, you go to somewhere like Mexico City, Mexico
in general. They have an entire They are standing up
in the back of a pickup truck. There is a
big gun that's bigger than all the guns that they're holding,
that's connected to the bed of that that pickup truck.
(13:05):
And they are squeezed up into that pickup truck and
they're ready for whatever it is that's gonna pop off.
They're ready, and they pushing like they drive around. You
look at him. If you hear anything, you move, don't
say a word. That's what you do. And that's dumb
for somebody to be groping a woman in that scenario
(13:29):
in a land where if you get caught up, don't
be sitting there jumping on the phone like I didn't
do it. No, that's not what happened. I didn't do it. No,
you in the wrong place. Jack, by the way, he's place.
He's like he got out of there, that they got
him on the plane and sent him home, like he
like he sounds like something that that. I don't know.
(13:51):
They said they informed the authorities, So I don't really
know how that one played out. That would be interesting
to see how that one played out, how he was
able to get back in the playing right home the
next day and get back. Yeah, it is two Pros

we feeling? Good morning? Good morning sir, it's happening. Are
(15:18):
you going tired? Yeah? Breaking down the college football playoff ranking. Yes, Michigan,
Ohio State, Iowa State, TCU, Kansas, Kansas State, Notre Dame
USC come on, yeah, big time a cow this week though, Right,
I got U c l A col and I have
(15:38):
Stanford b y U. But only one of them I'm
going to do in the Bay Area. Which, um, where's
Cal out at this point? Comitive Strawberry Canyon right about
the camp in the league? Did I still have as so? Well?
Cal always plays U c l A tough. Okay, That's
(16:01):
all I needed. They played each other for a long time.
They have a great running back, probably the best young
back in the league. And Jaden Yes, but U c
l A a little hungover from a very emotional intergalactic
battle with USC. Yeah, but yeah, that'll be interesting. You know,
(16:22):
this time of year, it's all just you know who's
gonna play and how many guys do you have that
are really willing to play? And are you ready to go?
And are you discouraged or can you get something done?
Petro's can can the salary cap and door long enough
for USC to get to the point of winning the
(16:42):
national title? Again the salary cap? Did I say salary cap?
I'm in I'm in um, Yeah, same thing. Yeah, I'm
glad you caught it. I'm glad you all caught it.
I mean I was being facetious obviously, but you know
the idea, I mean they I mean, you know, Reggie
Bull should get his eyesman back, is what I'm saying.
But here's the point, right honestly to look at what
(17:06):
USC was to what they are right now, and we
all know you can attribute it to the transfers note
none bigger than Caleb Um. I mean, they're they're on
pace and on track to be a dominant team in
college football outside of just winning in the pack. Do
you think that they can get there? Like, can they
(17:27):
get to the point of where they can go beat
in Alabama or Georgia or anything in the in the
playoffs and and get a championship. Well, Alabama is not
gonna be there, yeah, I mean, you know, And and
that's kind of the thing, right because Alabama would probably
be favored against USC if they played on a neutral site.
But USC is the one that's in a position to
(17:48):
get there. And on even years, uh, when USC at
the end of the year plays Notre Dame and then
before that U C. L A. And then you'll have
or whatever conference championship game, all of that gets a
lot of attention. Those are three really big national games
(18:10):
at the end of the year for USC, and if
you can win those games, then you get a lot
of eyeballs and you get a lot of people celebrating
your team. And I just remember two thousand two was
like that. Carson Palmer gained a lot of momentum as
the year went on, and he ended up winning the
(18:30):
Heisman because he had a great performance against U c.
L A. He had a great performance against Notre Dame,
and then he had a great performance in the Orange
Bowl and everybody was all over him and he won
the Heisman before the bowl game. And that might happen
here with Caleb. I think they have an offense that
(18:51):
is really resilient. They lost Travis died, but they were
still able to win a game against a team that
has Zack Charbonett running back. So they're they're doing a
lot of good things. And we all knew that USC
was fixed when they hired Lincoln Riley. We knew they
were gonna win ten games. Where were those ten games
(19:12):
gonna come? Were they gonna gain momentums the season went
on as and improve as the season went on, and
they have and not only that, but they've kind of
overcome their defensive deficiencies with offensive opportunism and it's been
interesting to watch. Caleb Williams is like, I don't know
(19:33):
who to compare him to. He's pretty good, you know,
he really yeah, he refuses him sacked, he extends plays.
He really competitive, he's got a fire. And when you
saw that with d t R two, but DTR made
mistakes down the stretch because he was playing a little
bit recklessly and Williams did not. So it's a hell
(19:53):
of a game. Was that The big difference between those
two is just the quarterback play. Caleb Williams just a
better quarterback. No, but yeah, I guess he willed his
team in a different way and they overcame not having
Travis die. They got Austin Jones going. It was pretty impressive,
it really was. It was a hell of a game,
(20:15):
and they made some defensive adjustments down the stretch, and
I mean U c l A was still driving to
win and they got to turnover because they dropped a
d M who made a made a play, so you
gotta give him credit. It was. It was a heck
of a game in USC's got to going down down
the stretch and people in the South of panicking they
might only get one team in. That's That's gonna be
(20:37):
an interesting thing though, is if l s U beats Georgia.
I feel like the way they set things up it's
so they can try to get too in the College
Football playoff criteria. That bs A side um is USC
and your mind, based on what you've seen this year,
are they a top four team? Like when you put
them up there amongst the George's, the Ohio States and
(20:57):
then whatever other you know team you want to throw
in there in your mind. I mean, I guess that
quarterback makes it that way. I mean, I don't know
if he'll allow them to lose or not score with
another team. So but really in real life, probably not
to answer your question, But that doesn't really matter because
if USC wins the three games at the end of
(21:18):
the year against ranked teams, I mean, up to this point,
how many ranked teams did USC beat? One zero? Well, yeah,
that's the one, right, I mean, otherwise they went to
Utah and lost, and they went to Oregon State and
almost lost, should have lost. So here we are at
the end of the year, and recency biases everything, and
(21:39):
the committee does not. They don't show themselves to be
I mean a group of integrity. It's not like they
stick to one decision and one precedent and let that
ride throughout the year. They'll change like a high school girl.
So it doesn't really make a difference what they say
now as opposed to what they're gonna say at the
(22:00):
end of the year. I mean they've proven that year
and a year out. If USC beats u C l A,
Notre Dame and then I don't know, Oregon, then you're going.
And that's what Lincoln Riley has said and and held
to since people started asking about the playoff, like midway
through October, and he's right. You know, that's kind of
(22:20):
where they're at right now, and they have to just
take care of their own business. Now, what does that mean?
Are they actually better than Georgia or Alabama or l
s U or it doesn't matter because if you're a
one lost team coming out of a power of five
in this climate this year, you're gonna go. But interesting
(22:42):
you see that though, because people discredit TCU, Well, no,
and I'm with you, and that's why I'm saying, like,
that's your opinion, but we also know that the playoff
committee has a little wiggle room to put in what
they feel like it's the four best teams, and so
that that's the only reason why I get concerned about it.
Is like I look at and I'm with you, I
think that they should get in. If they would out,
(23:03):
I should TCU. But even but that that's an undefeated
TCU team, Like people look at TCU and go what
they lose? Again, they shouldn't make it in. Dude, They've
beat five top teams so far this year for four
weeks in a row. Don't get any Brady. It drives me.
I mean, I don't you know how much it drives
me crazy. I mean, TCU is playing great. They are
(23:25):
finding ways to win down the stretch, and like you said,
they're undefeated. They kick they had to execute to beat
Baylor was brilliant. The way they did it showed huge.
As you said on the television, Stones, I don't know
you could get away with that, Brady, really almost it's
something else that showed a lot of balls, Brady. That
(23:45):
showed big sack. Can you you said, Stones, if you
guys said balls, would they give you a hard time?
I don't know, Petels, what would happen? All right? I
don't know. Everybody's in cutter top team like, oh god,
but you know, I mean I did it really bothers
(24:08):
me that, you know, something happens in college football that
is wonderful, that is great, that is unexpected. That had
nothing to do with all the blow viating during the
summer and whatever they wrote in the athlon guide. All
of that goes out the window and the horn you know,
under under Sunny Dikes, who no one would ever think
(24:33):
was gonna put together a team with all three phases.
TCU is undefeated. No one saw that coming. It's it's
really interesting. I mean, just just a quick point about
the Big Twelve, Like, the two hottest coaches in the
conference as far as hiring wise are Bill Kleman and
(24:55):
Lephold in Kansas. I mean, those are the two best guys.
And I just think of the situation in Kansas State
because I've been there after Snyder and they had such
a good thing under Bill Snyder. But at the same time,
once he left and this new guy took over and
kind of opened it up a little bit more in
a certain way, they became even better the Wildcats. And
(25:19):
it's the same thing with with TCU. You know, under
the thumb of Gary Patterson, a great and innovative coach
defensively all these years and suddenly somebody comes with new
eyes and the place starts to flourish. And that's what
we love about college football. We want this stuff. We
want t c US to be undefeated around Thanksgiving, and
(25:39):
then when it happens, we have to find a reason
to tell everybody why L s U or somebody is
better even though they have a loss, and it's b
s I I think you know. It's the preseason rankings
and a lot of the stuff we do in the
off season sets us back for what's actually gonna happen
during the season, and that is a shame, Brady, and
I worried for that too. How much of it you
(26:00):
It gets to do with the fact that ESPN controls it.
But you know, I try to tell people not to
think of it as the Big Ten versus the SEC
or whatever conference. I think of it as Fox versus
the ESPN, and because that's really what it is. And ESPN,
(26:20):
I mean, there's a reason all they talk about is
the Heisman in the college Football Playoff, and it's because
they own those entities and that's just what it is,
and they push their brand past the competition of the
game over the competition of the game. And I don't
like it. I mean, I really don't like the way
(26:41):
the product is set up and it kind of makes
me bitter towards the Playoff and the Heisman when I
shouldn't be as much. But since they owed it and
they own the SEC for all practical purposes, they it sucks.
Petro's what's Thanksgiving like in a Greek house? Hold? Take
us take us in here flying the cow in the
(27:03):
middle of the night, or West Virginia or wherever I
else have gone. You know, so, I mean we got
the specific are you ever home for Thanksgiving? Brady? This
will be actually, ironically the first one I'll be back
in Ohio with my family for And I was thought
about this with my wife. I can't remember the last time.
(27:23):
I think this is the first time since I was
like maybe earlier in high school. Yeah, I've been back.
I've been back to Ohio, but my family was gone.
That's a song. Uh, yeah, it's you know, during the
football season. You usually not if you work football games,
you usually are not home during Thanksgiving or having Thanksgiving
(27:45):
in some place like the Oread Hotel and Lawrence, Kansas.
And I've had Thanksgiving all over the world. But but yeah,
it's uh, it's a traditionally a normal Thanksgiving, but with
probably heavier Drake King and a spot of cop talk
which is a spinish and feed the cheese and Philo
dough dish. Oh that's nice, very nice. Yeah, with a
(28:07):
little peta, you know, like some Peter or some clean
It's not no that you have the Philo dough which
you don't be stupid, listen, I'm just asking questions here.
I've never been to Grease. I gotta you get a
good living in Greece. Yeah, he's he's a ham guy anyway.
By the way, Petros on Thanksgiving like a honey Baker guy. Well,
it's just it's a little more consistent than turkey. It

Let's go to the news DEAs what new. Here's Brady Quinn. Alright, alright,
have you guys ever heard of the show called chris
Lely Knows Best? Yes, Pod and Julie Chrisley. I think
(31:39):
it was on the USA network. Yeah, they had this
beautiful match and I believe it was what in Nashville
or something like that, George, if I'm not mistaken, Georgia,
that's right. Well, I think they have some other properties
as well. Apparently, um, they've been sentenced to nineteen years
in prison for bank fraud, tax evation charges for submitting
false documents banks. It appears yeah, they're gonna have to
(32:02):
give up the too clam homes as well. So it
looks like a Judge Elettor Ross of the U S
District Coort Atlanta has ordered the reality TV stars to
pay seventeen point two million in restitution in relations to
a three or six billion dollar fraud scheme. If you're
making this, yeah I did see this. If you're making
(32:24):
that much money and all you are as a reality star,
why would you want to screw that up? Why would
why would you even want a chance? It might be
a news flash for you. I don't think they were
making as much as they claimed. Hence the thirty six
million dollar fraud schame. But you were making enough mind
not in their mind. Man, those houses are nice, but
(32:44):
you tell me that, I mean, you tell me, well,
they're gonna have a nice new house for the next
few years. That gonna go three hots and a copy.
You know, if you've seen them, they'll they'll do well
in that environment. They're bill transparency and I'm sure LaVar
(33:07):
you could price speak of this. We were pitched, my
wife and I were pitched to a reality TV show
just a few years back. I remember like listening to
them and going for how much. I was like, yeah, no,
no shot, like to have a peek into your private
life and an invasion like that. I wanted no part
of it, especially for the small amount of money they're
(33:28):
going to pay. Yeah, it wasn't a lot. We did.
Like you have to get renewed for a second season,
and even then you have to do so much other
promotion off of that show to truly leverage it into
making it makes sense. And that's how you make the money,
is the opportunity that's created off of doing the show.
That's what they try to sell you on, like, yeah,
we can only pay you X amount for for each episode,
(33:50):
but the amount of exposure that you're going to receive
will allow for you to be able to do other
things out there. It's like, yeah, I don't know, I
don't know. I think about it. It's kind of like
the Bachelor Bachelorette series. The folks who get on that,
they're either aspiring actors or actresses, but they really just
want to get on it so they can increase their
(34:11):
following and then do stuff on social media. Like those
people were on that. No disrespect, they have zero talent
and they really bring nothing to the table. They're just
part of a series that's lived for the past two decades.
No disrespect, you suck out loud. I did not say that.
Those are your words, and we're looking to sum it up,
you know, try and you know, fit everything onto the
(34:31):
podcast page. Look, I've got a buddy who was on
The Bachelorette. He made it like two or three episodes,
and I tell him every time, I'm like, yeah, you're
a good looking dude. You don't have any of their talent.
Besides that, like, she went on the show and that
was the rest of it. Some people. By the way,
has any couple survived a reality show. They all, they
(34:52):
all I've heard. I've told you that, I've heard some
things about some of that stuff, Like there's one in particular,
heard that didn't. It's like maybe that's just that relationships
stayed together more for show. Well, I mean, like just
reality shows in general, like j Cutler, Christian Cavalry, Eric,
Eric and Jesse they're still they're still again, I still
(35:14):
love each other. Yeah, there, that's true, right, So they're
the one. Yeah, we'll move on from there. That's a win.
A naked woman gets trapped in a tanning bed. Yeah,
thirty three year old in London. I couldn't get out
and she couldn't turn the lights off. She was actually panicked. Yeah,
I thought she was going to get burnt to death.
(35:35):
Like in the movie Kick Ass. Apparently there's a scene
where someone gets fried in the tanning bed. So that
would be pretty scary, I'm certain. I mean, I've never
needed to use a tanning bed, so haven't I would
not know what that experience is, Like, Bret ever been
in tanning bed? I have before my Apple Transparent. Let
(35:56):
me tell you something great, Nap, it's a great mastering there, man. Yeah,
but I mean, you know, you just, uh, if you
go out drinking and you're like, hey, let's stop by
the tanning bed afterwards, what would you guys have What
would your reaction have been if the tanning bid did
not open when you went to open it, especially, I
(36:17):
mean because you got like this this towel covering you
and yeah, am I am I here to tell about it?
But yeah, it's just it's very awkward. It's very uncomfortable.
And if it would close and you couldn't get it
open and the light was on many because you really
(36:37):
can burn, right if you're staying there too long. There
was a baseball player I forget his name a couple
of years ago who had to go on on the
injured list because he got in the tanning bed too
long and he got fried. He got burned. Other than that,
I remember when we were treaded for the Combine, our
strength coach out it side was like trying to convince
guys to go into the tanning bed or at least layout,
(37:00):
just so they could look more shready. Yeah, your muscles douche.
I mean that's why you know competitors they put the
oil professional wrestlers when they go to towns and they
always say. The first places they have to pinpoint where
to go are the and the tanning salons. Well they
look good. They do them on site nowadays. Sure, yeah
(37:22):
they have. You guys ever broken anything at a like
a convenience store. I had not. I'm trying to think, Yeah,
I think I knocked something off the shelf. What did
I knock off the shelf and it broke? Yes, trying
to remember what it was? It was it a glass
jar of salsa. No, well, there's a there's a woman
(37:44):
who shot a man for Texas gas Station. Clark was
a wrested after shooting a customer broken jar salsa. Apparently
the two got in an altercation, but shilemen happened to
bump and break a char of salsa. The woman went
outside to grab her handgun and proceeded to shoot him.
It's probably because he didn't want to pay for the salsa,
(38:07):
and she's like, you're not leaving without paying for the salsa. Yeah,
I'm leaving. You're gonna handle that salsa, and you're gonna
clean up that salsa and the glasses, and she put up.
She bust a cap in his egg that or she
promised somebody at home she was bringing back to pace
Pecani and next thing you know, it's on the floor,
and so she put, you know, a couple of holes
in that. I'm certain there was more salsa than just
(38:28):
that one bottle. That. I mean, you must hold salsa
and high regard if you're willing to shoot someone twice
for it was. It was, it was. The principle behind
paying for the salsa is what I would say. You're
gonna pay for this broken bottle of salsa. I just
baby doesn't catch up For me. I'm more of a
ketchup fan. You're gonna you're going to catch Would you

So things that are getting a little bit weird in
the NFC West, all right, So first and foremost, the
l A Rams release Darryl Henderson. He's our leading rusher
on the season. And we've got the cam Aker situation,
(01:24):
and we've got Matt Stafford and the concussion protocol, and
we've got the elbow injury he suffered this offseason. Like it,
it feels odd everything that's happened with the l A
Rams three and seven. Yeah, three and seven, I believe,
but it is just another layer to the weirdness that
(01:47):
is the l A Rams. And apparently they're just gonna
roll with cam Akers who didn't want to be there
three weeks ago. Apparently that's the plan there with the
l A Rams. I don't get it. I don't get
it either. I mean, what the hell is going on
in l A I don't know. It doesn't make any sense.
Almost like if you throw a fuss or you make
a big deal about it, like you're the one that
ends up staying that the one ends up going. They're
(02:07):
so bad, man, They're they're they're atrocious. They're one of
the worst, and the pick, their first round pick, goes
to Detroit, So the Lions are just gonna pick up
on a top five pick. At this point, it's looking like,
I mean, at least headed in that direction. After the season,
the lines have ad where there's some hope and some promise,
Like it just feels like the windows shut for the
(02:29):
Rams and now we just get to see who sticks
around for the aftermath or and and who decides you're
just gonna get up and go. Like there's been some
speculation about Matt Stafford maybe walking away, that maybe retirement
would be on the table. We know Sean McVeigh talked about,
you know that the broadcasting booth and the rumor going
to to be a broadcaster. It feels like next year
(02:51):
could be Sean mcveigh's final you're at the Rams, depending
on how things go next year, gone done deal. You
know what do you saying this year? I don't know,
you know, I don't know. You go into a season
and for most of the off season it's like, is
he going to return or is he going to leave?
Your best player same exact thing. Is he gonna go?
(03:14):
Is he gonna leave? Now the best player gets an extension,
the the head coach is coming back, and then this
is the product that you guys put on. Have we
even said Aaron Donald's name this year? Not much like
I mean, god bless like most dominant dude that I've seen,
most likely ever played played on the defensive side of
(03:35):
the ball. I haven't said his name. Whose name have
we said? Who has been a difference maker for this
Rams team? Cooper Company's engine When Cooper Cup was in,
I'll give you Cooper Cup. Now he's gone. So I
just you know, I don't know. I think this is
this is we're we're not driving this car anymore. We're
(03:58):
we're gonna trade this one in and we're going to
try to bring a new one off of the lot.
Now what that looks like, what to make the model is?
Who's the driver? I don't know. And I think that
that's going to have to be a hard conversation because
I just don't think that the l A market, it's
not it's not established enough where you could have a
(04:19):
product fall as far off as this one has after
building such an amazing uh facility to play in and
entertain your your your fans. I just don't think that
they can just say, Okay, yep, we're gonna give this
another one or two years and see where we're at
there and reassess and reevaluate. You're you're bad. You're really bad,
(04:41):
and you're bad in a number one media market, number
two media market. You you have got to be aggressive
in how you do things. And I don't know what
that that what that means off season wise, but I
wouldn't say anyone is safe, including the head coach. Well,
I don't know that they're gonna move on from him,
I'll put it that way. I mean, I don't think
(05:02):
there's any thought in their mind about that. It's just
that whether or not he wants to do this, and
and maybe there's a thought that he doesn't want to
go through a rebuild, because that's what's what that's what's this,
this is gonna be. You know, the whole F ThM
picks only works for a window of time and then
you find yourselves in cap hell, which is what they're
gonna be in. So at this point, you know, I
don't think they're moving on from Sean McVeigh. It's more
(05:23):
Sean McVeigh saying I don't want to have to go through,
you know, two three years of us trying to turn
over this roster and get it to where we need
to and get a better cap situation to make another run.
I'd rather go have some peace of mind, you know,
go start a family, all that stuff, and focus on
on my personal enjoyment, and then come back to this
team or somewhere else once they're in a better situation.
(05:46):
I could see that scenario playing out. And also Jalen
Ramsey's at it down here too as well. Right, I mean,
it's hard to ever say he has a down here,
like the guy is so good. He's he's had a
different standard, you know. I think any cornerback when you're
not getting the rush to help out to a degree,
you're gonna have some you know, balls completed on you,
(06:07):
that sort of thing. But he's still one of the
best in the league in my opinion. Um And then
there's this in the NFC West dateline Mexico City where
the Arizona Cardinals who fired their offensive line coach and
running game coordinator Sean Coogler. Um, Well, there was an
(06:31):
instant in Mexico City on Sunday night, and they sent
him home before the game on Monday, and according to
sources who spoke with the ESPN, he was fired because
apparently he groped a woman in Mexico City over the weekend.
Mexican authorities were notified of the incident. It happened on
Sunday night, as we mentioned, and they informed the Cardinals.
(06:52):
They fired him, send him back to Arizona on that
flight Monday morning, and the Arizona Cardinals had just gotten
there on set matter day, so he was there twenty
four hours. A little bit over twenty four hours, grow uped,
a woman got clipped and sent back home and another
so so another layer to what a disaster it's been
for the Arizona Cardinals this season. Um now they are
(07:14):
being featured on Hard Knocks right now. I wonder if
that will be featured. I'm gonna assume that's probably not
gonna be on Hard Knocks. Makes the episode way more entertaining.
You know, put part ways and move forward. I would
assume you know you'd want you'd want to get away
from your responsible Is that? How how moronic is that?
How asinine is that? How everything else dumb? Stupid? Like
(07:36):
how I mean honestly, like you're a coach in the
National Football League. You got it made like you scream
out some guys for a couple of hours a day,
watch some film, put it on paper. Here's a play.
You've got other people. You've got quality control, people that
basically do your job for you. Break up to take
(07:57):
you got film, people that that organized break up to
tape by down distance and you know tendencies. All you
have to do is get in front of the room,
talk to your group, make sure they know what their
objectives are for the game, and keep it moving. And
you're gonna mess that up over you know, a good time.
It's just as strange to me. Man. So the decision
(08:19):
making that some people make and listen, I don't know
what people be going on and have going on in
their personal lives. And I'm not one to judge. And
I'm definitely not the guy that's holding the stone and
and and throws it and puts his hand behind his back.
I'm I'll be the first one to tell you I'm
not a perfect dude. I'll be the first one to
tell you that that I have my shortcomings and I
definitely have lapses and judgment and in my own personal
(08:42):
life at times, I'll be the first one to tell you.
But what I don't understand is how do you allow
yourself to make decisions like if if it was because
of alcohol, like you gotta know your limitations. If it's
one good drink and you step a way, then you
step away. You find yourself where you're drinking and you're
(09:04):
to the point of blacking out, or you're slobbering all
over yourself and you're saying and you're doing things that
are very chauvinistic or very disrespectful, and that in that manner,
I hope you're with somebody who's responsible enough when you're
not responsible because your dumbass needs somebody to help you.
I hope that you're you're responsible enough to get up
out of there if you find yourself in that that
(09:26):
type of scenario. And when I hear stories like this man,
it's always a disappointing deal because what are you? What
are you? Why are you behaving that way? Like groping
a woman? Like come on, man, like where you what? Like?
What did you get out of it? Was it worth it? Today?
You're sitting at home today? Was it worth it? I
can guarantee you we all know what the answer to
that is now, and now it stays with them, and
(09:49):
good luck you know who knows. Listen, we don't know
all the details of it, but that is the report
that's out there. And and also if you're gonna be
on one of those road trips, I would assume you can.
Don't want to play it cool, You can't. You can't
mess around or maybe act the way you normally act
in some of those other areas, because they're not they're
not playing around like anybody who's ever been to Mexico.
The federalies don't play around like. They drive around a
(10:11):
little differently than what we do in the States. I'll
tell you that I had a buddy get arrested and
and nobody could get a hold of him. He didn't
have his phone on him because he got drunk in public.
He didn't he didn't grow up anybody, but got drunk
drunk in public, got picked up, got popped, and and
was just disappeared for hours. And the cats be in
their pickup trucks and they be pulled up. They'd be
(10:34):
pulled up like we'll be getting sensitive about how our
law enforcement people be moving around. There's okay, go check
out what's going, Okay, try that with them over there, dude.
I was just gonna say, people who get upset about
our law enforcement must not travel. Like I'll just leave
it at that, because you can't complain when you travel.
(10:55):
You go other places, you see how like the police
operate or act, or you see how quickly you could
have things taken away from you or even for example.
And I don't know, I'm not gonna get off on
a big tangent on this, but I I was text
with Jenny Taft, who's over in Qatar right now, and
she was like basically saying how sexist is like bottom line,
like she can't go into the stadium in the same
(11:17):
spot as men. Well, yeah, but it's a little different.
She doesn't have to do that as much as the
others over there. But just even the fact that she
can't go in through the same entrance as a man
going through security. She's like, I've experienced certain things. She's
like this, this is the tops of that, and so
(11:37):
and I just I sat there and I thought to myself, like, man,
we have it so good in this country, but a
lot of times we don't know it because we never
go anywhere else. To that that sort of perspective about
just how free we really are when it comes down
to it. Man, I told you I've been to Mexico
City quite a few times. And even when you go
to like Cabo and different places like that, they be
(11:58):
on their pickup trucks and they'd be ready for war. Yeah,
Like they don't look like police. They look like the military.
We weren't by Buddy's bashment party in Cancoon and we're like, oh,
let's go downtown. You know it was born by the hotel.
The hotel sucked and we're like, let's let's go downtown.
We go downtown and they're driving through the streets in
tanks with rifles. If they pull up on you, don't
(12:22):
be on that. I'm filming you. We're getting it off film.
I wish you would like in New York City, they
they've got carriage rides in in Mexico, they've got guys
on tanks. In New York and New York they do
have assault rifles. They do like in certain places they
have assault right York. New York is one of those
(12:42):
places where they do have us. They will go to
they will cut you down in New York. But I'm
telling you, you go to somewhere like Mexico City, Mexico
in general. They have an entire They are standing up
in the back of a pickup truck. There is a
big gun that's bigger than all the guns that they're holding,
that's connected to the bed of that that pickup truck.
(13:05):
And they are squeezed up into that pickup truck and
they're ready for whatever it is that's gonna pop off.
They're ready, and they pushing like they drive around. You
look at him. If you hear anything, you move, don't
say a word. That's what you do. And that's dumb
for somebody to be groping a woman in that scenario
(13:29):
in a land where if you get caught up, don't
be sitting there jumping on the phone like I didn't
do it. No, that's not what happened. I didn't do it. No,
you in the wrong place. Jack, by the way, he's place.
He's like he got out of there, that they got
him on the plane and sent him home, like he
like he sounds like something that that. I don't know.
(13:51):
They said they informed the authorities, So I don't really
know how that one played out. That would be interesting
to see how that one played out, how he was
able to get back in the playing right home the
next day and get back. Yeah, it is two Pros

I mean, there's nothing this man can't do. And you
can get him on Twitter at the old Petros. How
we feeling? Good morning? Good morning sir, it's happening. Are
(15:18):
you going tired? Yeah? Breaking down the college football playoff ranking. Yes, Michigan,
Ohio State, Iowa State, TCU, Kansas, Kansas State, Notre Dame
USC come on, yeah, big time a cow this week though, Right,
I got U c l A col and I have
(15:38):
Stanford b y U. But only one of them I'm
going to do in the Bay Area. Which, um, where's
Cal out at this point? Comitive Strawberry Canyon right about
the camp in the league? Did I still have as so? Well?
Cal always plays U c l A tough. Okay, That's
(16:01):
all I needed. They played each other for a long time.
They have a great running back, probably the best young
back in the league. And Jaden Yes, but U c
l A a little hungover from a very emotional intergalactic
battle with USC. Yeah, but yeah, that'll be interesting. You know,
(16:22):
this time of year, it's all just you know who's
gonna play and how many guys do you have that
are really willing to play? And are you ready to go?
And are you discouraged or can you get something done?
Petro's can can the salary cap and door long enough
for USC to get to the point of winning the
(16:42):
national title? Again the salary cap? Did I say salary cap?
I'm in I'm in um, Yeah, same thing. Yeah, I'm
glad you caught it. I'm glad you all caught it.
I mean I was being facetious obviously, but you know
the idea, I mean they I mean, you know, Reggie
Bull should get his eyesman back, is what I'm saying.
But here's the point, right honestly to look at what
(17:06):
USC was to what they are right now, and we
all know you can attribute it to the transfers note
none bigger than Caleb Um. I mean, they're they're on
pace and on track to be a dominant team in
college football outside of just winning in the pack. Do
you think that they can get there? Like, can they
(17:27):
get to the point of where they can go beat
in Alabama or Georgia or anything in the in the
playoffs and and get a championship. Well, Alabama is not
gonna be there, yeah, I mean, you know, And and
that's kind of the thing, right because Alabama would probably
be favored against USC if they played on a neutral site.
But USC is the one that's in a position to
(17:48):
get there. And on even years, uh, when USC at
the end of the year plays Notre Dame and then
before that U C. L A. And then you'll have
or whatever conference championship game, all of that gets a
lot of attention. Those are three really big national games
(18:10):
at the end of the year for USC, and if
you can win those games, then you get a lot
of eyeballs and you get a lot of people celebrating
your team. And I just remember two thousand two was
like that. Carson Palmer gained a lot of momentum as
the year went on, and he ended up winning the
(18:30):
Heisman because he had a great performance against U c.
L A. He had a great performance against Notre Dame,
and then he had a great performance in the Orange
Bowl and everybody was all over him and he won
the Heisman before the bowl game. And that might happen
here with Caleb. I think they have an offense that
(18:51):
is really resilient. They lost Travis died, but they were
still able to win a game against a team that
has Zack Charbonett running back. So they're they're doing a
lot of good things. And we all knew that USC
was fixed when they hired Lincoln Riley. We knew they
were gonna win ten games. Where were those ten games
(19:12):
gonna come? Were they gonna gain momentums the season went
on as and improve as the season went on, and
they have and not only that, but they've kind of
overcome their defensive deficiencies with offensive opportunism and it's been
interesting to watch. Caleb Williams is like, I don't know
(19:33):
who to compare him to. He's pretty good, you know,
he really yeah, he refuses him sacked, he extends plays.
He really competitive, he's got a fire. And when you
saw that with d t R two, but DTR made
mistakes down the stretch because he was playing a little
bit recklessly and Williams did not. So it's a hell
(19:53):
of a game. Was that The big difference between those
two is just the quarterback play. Caleb Williams just a
better quarterback. No, but yeah, I guess he willed his
team in a different way and they overcame not having
Travis die. They got Austin Jones going. It was pretty impressive,
it really was. It was a hell of a game,
(20:15):
and they made some defensive adjustments down the stretch, and
I mean U c l A was still driving to
win and they got to turnover because they dropped a
d M who made a made a play, so you
gotta give him credit. It was. It was a heck
of a game in USC's got to going down down
the stretch and people in the South of panicking they
might only get one team in. That's That's gonna be
(20:37):
an interesting thing though, is if l s U beats Georgia.
I feel like the way they set things up it's
so they can try to get too in the College
Football playoff criteria. That bs A side um is USC
and your mind, based on what you've seen this year,
are they a top four team? Like when you put
them up there amongst the George's, the Ohio States and
(20:57):
then whatever other you know team you want to throw
in there in your mind. I mean, I guess that
quarterback makes it that way. I mean, I don't know
if he'll allow them to lose or not score with
another team. So but really in real life, probably not
to answer your question, But that doesn't really matter because
if USC wins the three games at the end of
(21:18):
the year against ranked teams, I mean, up to this point,
how many ranked teams did USC beat? One zero? Well, yeah,
that's the one, right, I mean, otherwise they went to
Utah and lost, and they went to Oregon State and
almost lost, should have lost. So here we are at
the end of the year, and recency biases everything, and
(21:39):
the committee does not. They don't show themselves to be
I mean a group of integrity. It's not like they
stick to one decision and one precedent and let that
ride throughout the year. They'll change like a high school girl.
So it doesn't really make a difference what they say
now as opposed to what they're gonna say at the
(22:00):
end of the year. I mean they've proven that year
and a year out. If USC beats u C l A,
Notre Dame and then I don't know, Oregon, then you're going.
And that's what Lincoln Riley has said and and held
to since people started asking about the playoff, like midway
through October, and he's right. You know, that's kind of
(22:20):
where they're at right now, and they have to just
take care of their own business. Now, what does that mean?
Are they actually better than Georgia or Alabama or l
s U or it doesn't matter because if you're a
one lost team coming out of a power of five
in this climate this year, you're gonna go. But interesting
(22:42):
you see that though, because people discredit TCU, Well, no,
and I'm with you, and that's why I'm saying, like,
that's your opinion, but we also know that the playoff
committee has a little wiggle room to put in what
they feel like it's the four best teams, and so
that that's the only reason why I get concerned about it.
Is like I look at and I'm with you, I
think that they should get in. If they would out,
(23:03):
I should TCU. But even but that that's an undefeated
TCU team, Like people look at TCU and go what
they lose? Again, they shouldn't make it in. Dude, They've
beat five top teams so far this year for four
weeks in a row. Don't get any Brady. It drives me.
I mean, I don't you know how much it drives
me crazy. I mean, TCU is playing great. They are
(23:25):
finding ways to win down the stretch, and like you said,
they're undefeated. They kick they had to execute to beat
Baylor was brilliant. The way they did it showed huge.
As you said on the television, Stones, I don't know
you could get away with that, Brady, really almost it's
something else that showed a lot of balls, Brady. That
(23:45):
showed big sack. Can you you said, Stones, if you
guys said balls, would they give you a hard time?
I don't know, Petels, what would happen? All right? I
don't know. Everybody's in cutter top team like, oh god,
but you know, I mean I did it really bothers
(24:08):
me that, you know, something happens in college football that
is wonderful, that is great, that is unexpected. That had
nothing to do with all the blow viating during the
summer and whatever they wrote in the athlon guide. All
of that goes out the window and the horn you know,
under under Sunny Dikes, who no one would ever think
(24:33):
was gonna put together a team with all three phases.
TCU is undefeated. No one saw that coming. It's it's
really interesting. I mean, just just a quick point about
the Big Twelve, Like, the two hottest coaches in the
conference as far as hiring wise are Bill Kleman and
(24:55):
Lephold in Kansas. I mean, those are the two best guys.
And I just think of the situation in Kansas State
because I've been there after Snyder and they had such
a good thing under Bill Snyder. But at the same time,
once he left and this new guy took over and
kind of opened it up a little bit more in
a certain way, they became even better the Wildcats. And
(25:19):
it's the same thing with with TCU. You know, under
the thumb of Gary Patterson, a great and innovative coach
defensively all these years and suddenly somebody comes with new
eyes and the place starts to flourish. And that's what
we love about college football. We want this stuff. We
want t c US to be undefeated around Thanksgiving, and
(25:39):
then when it happens, we have to find a reason
to tell everybody why L s U or somebody is
better even though they have a loss, and it's b
s I I think you know. It's the preseason rankings
and a lot of the stuff we do in the
off season sets us back for what's actually gonna happen
during the season, and that is a shame, Brady, and
I worried for that too. How much of it you
(26:00):
It gets to do with the fact that ESPN controls it.
But you know, I try to tell people not to
think of it as the Big Ten versus the SEC
or whatever conference. I think of it as Fox versus
the ESPN, and because that's really what it is. And ESPN,
(26:20):
I mean, there's a reason all they talk about is
the Heisman in the college Football Playoff, and it's because
they own those entities and that's just what it is,
and they push their brand past the competition of the
game over the competition of the game. And I don't
like it. I mean, I really don't like the way
(26:41):
the product is set up and it kind of makes
me bitter towards the Playoff and the Heisman when I
shouldn't be as much. But since they owed it and
they own the SEC for all practical purposes, they it sucks.
Petro's what's Thanksgiving like in a Greek house? Hold? Take
us take us in here flying the cow in the
(27:03):
middle of the night, or West Virginia or wherever I
else have gone. You know, so, I mean we got
the specific are you ever home for Thanksgiving? Brady? This
will be actually, ironically the first one I'll be back
in Ohio with my family for And I was thought
about this with my wife. I can't remember the last time.
(27:23):
I think this is the first time since I was
like maybe earlier in high school. Yeah, I've been back.
I've been back to Ohio, but my family was gone.
That's a song. Uh, yeah, it's you know, during the
football season. You usually not if you work football games,
you usually are not home during Thanksgiving or having Thanksgiving
(27:45):
in some place like the Oread Hotel and Lawrence, Kansas.
And I've had Thanksgiving all over the world. But but yeah,
it's uh, it's a traditionally a normal Thanksgiving, but with
probably heavier Drake King and a spot of cop talk
which is a spinish and feed the cheese and Philo
dough dish. Oh that's nice, very nice. Yeah, with a
(28:07):
little peta, you know, like some Peter or some clean
It's not no that you have the Philo dough which
you don't be stupid, listen, I'm just asking questions here.
I've never been to Grease. I gotta you get a
good living in Greece. Yeah, he's he's a ham guy anyway.
By the way, Petros on Thanksgiving like a honey Baker guy. Well,
it's just it's a little more consistent than turkey. It
(28:29):
just is fair enough. You know what you're gonna get. Um.
And by the way, you did great on the desk,
you know with LaVar. I'll be back on the desk
on on Saturday with Chris Peterson and Emmanuel Acho. All right,
Sacho is good, dude. He's got energies, rapid fire. Yep.
(28:50):

Let's go to the news DEAs what new. Here's Brady Quinn. Alright, alright,
have you guys ever heard of the show called chris
Lely Knows Best? Yes, Pod and Julie Chrisley. I think
(31:39):
it was on the USA network. Yeah, they had this
beautiful match and I believe it was what in Nashville
or something like that, George, if I'm not mistaken, Georgia,
that's right. Well, I think they have some other properties
as well. Apparently, um, they've been sentenced to nineteen years
in prison for bank fraud, tax evation charges for submitting
false documents banks. It appears yeah, they're gonna have to
(32:02):
give up the too clam homes as well. So it
looks like a Judge Elettor Ross of the U S
District Coort Atlanta has ordered the reality TV stars to
pay seventeen point two million in restitution in relations to
a three or six billion dollar fraud scheme. If you're
making this, yeah I did see this. If you're making
(32:24):
that much money and all you are as a reality star,
why would you want to screw that up? Why would
why would you even want a chance? It might be
a news flash for you. I don't think they were
making as much as they claimed. Hence the thirty six
million dollar fraud schame. But you were making enough mind
not in their mind. Man, those houses are nice, but
(32:44):
you tell me that, I mean, you tell me, well,
they're gonna have a nice new house for the next
few years. That gonna go three hots and a copy.
You know, if you've seen them, they'll they'll do well
in that environment. They're bill transparency and I'm sure LaVar
(33:07):
you could price speak of this. We were pitched, my
wife and I were pitched to a reality TV show
just a few years back. I remember like listening to
them and going for how much. I was like, yeah, no,
no shot, like to have a peek into your private
life and an invasion like that. I wanted no part
of it, especially for the small amount of money they're
(33:28):
going to pay. Yeah, it wasn't a lot. We did.
Like you have to get renewed for a second season,
and even then you have to do so much other
promotion off of that show to truly leverage it into
making it makes sense. And that's how you make the money,
is the opportunity that's created off of doing the show.
That's what they try to sell you on, like, yeah,
we can only pay you X amount for for each episode,
(33:50):
but the amount of exposure that you're going to receive
will allow for you to be able to do other
things out there. It's like, yeah, I don't know, I
don't know. I think about it. It's kind of like
the Bachelor Bachelorette series. The folks who get on that,
they're either aspiring actors or actresses, but they really just
want to get on it so they can increase their
(34:11):
following and then do stuff on social media. Like those
people were on that. No disrespect, they have zero talent
and they really bring nothing to the table. They're just
part of a series that's lived for the past two decades.
No disrespect, you suck out loud. I did not say that.
Those are your words, and we're looking to sum it up,
you know, try and you know, fit everything onto the
(34:31):
podcast page. Look, I've got a buddy who was on
The Bachelorette. He made it like two or three episodes,
and I tell him every time, I'm like, yeah, you're
a good looking dude. You don't have any of their talent.
Besides that, like, she went on the show and that
was the rest of it. Some people. By the way,
has any couple survived a reality show. They all, they
(34:52):
all I've heard. I've told you that, I've heard some
things about some of that stuff, Like there's one in particular,
heard that didn't. It's like maybe that's just that relationships
stayed together more for show. Well, I mean, like just
reality shows in general, like j Cutler, Christian Cavalry, Eric,
Eric and Jesse they're still they're still again, I still
(35:14):
love each other. Yeah, there, that's true, right, So they're
the one. Yeah, we'll move on from there. That's a win.
A naked woman gets trapped in a tanning bed. Yeah,
thirty three year old in London. I couldn't get out
and she couldn't turn the lights off. She was actually panicked. Yeah,
I thought she was going to get burnt to death.
(35:35):
Like in the movie Kick Ass. Apparently there's a scene
where someone gets fried in the tanning bed. So that
would be pretty scary, I'm certain. I mean, I've never
needed to use a tanning bed, so haven't I would
not know what that experience is, Like, Bret ever been
in tanning bed? I have before my Apple Transparent. Let
(35:56):
me tell you something great, Nap, it's a great mastering there, man. Yeah,
but I mean, you know, you just, uh, if you
go out drinking and you're like, hey, let's stop by
the tanning bed afterwards, what would you guys have What
would your reaction have been if the tanning bid did
not open when you went to open it, especially, I
(36:17):
mean because you got like this this towel covering you
and yeah, am I am I here to tell about it?
But yeah, it's just it's very awkward. It's very uncomfortable.
And if it would close and you couldn't get it
open and the light was on many because you really
(36:37):
can burn, right if you're staying there too long. There
was a baseball player I forget his name a couple
of years ago who had to go on on the
injured list because he got in the tanning bed too
long and he got fried. He got burned. Other than that,
I remember when we were treaded for the Combine, our
strength coach out it side was like trying to convince
guys to go into the tanning bed or at least layout,
(37:00):
just so they could look more shready. Yeah, your muscles douche.
I mean that's why you know competitors they put the
oil professional wrestlers when they go to towns and they
always say. The first places they have to pinpoint where
to go are the and the tanning salons. Well they
look good. They do them on site nowadays. Sure, yeah
(37:22):
they have. You guys ever broken anything at a like
a convenience store. I had not. I'm trying to think, Yeah,
I think I knocked something off the shelf. What did
I knock off the shelf and it broke? Yes, trying
to remember what it was? It was it a glass
jar of salsa. No, well, there's a there's a woman
(37:44):
who shot a man for Texas gas Station. Clark was
a wrested after shooting a customer broken jar salsa. Apparently
the two got in an altercation, but shilemen happened to
bump and break a char of salsa. The woman went
outside to grab her handgun and proceeded to shoot him.
It's probably because he didn't want to pay for the salsa,
(38:07):
and she's like, you're not leaving without paying for the salsa. Yeah,
I'm leaving. You're gonna handle that salsa, and you're gonna
clean up that salsa and the glasses, and she put up.
She bust a cap in his egg that or she
promised somebody at home she was bringing back to pace
Pecani and next thing you know, it's on the floor,
and so she put, you know, a couple of holes
in that. I'm certain there was more salsa than just
(38:28):
that one bottle. That. I mean, you must hold salsa
and high regard if you're willing to shoot someone twice
for it was. It was, it was. The principle behind
paying for the salsa is what I would say. You're
gonna pay for this broken bottle of salsa. I just
baby doesn't catch up For me. I'm more of a
ketchup fan. You're gonna you're going to catch Would you
