Speaker 3 (01:19):
Dang gino.

Speaker 4 (01:21):
By the way, did anybody on the show have the
Niners in the Super Bowl.

Speaker 3 (01:24):
Uh, we should have. Do you feel like baby var
picked Gino?

Speaker 6 (01:29):
Not necessarily because you were kind of playing this whole
West Virginia Penn State thing. I was thinking maybe because
of the the cornerback announcement with Cooper Degene now starting
oh yeah for the Eagles and then Riley Moss Now,
maybe maybe it was more of that that side.

Speaker 1 (01:43):
Of things for far. You know, Yeah, I have no
problem with those guys. Yeah, I don't know you guys
making an insony to bring those those types of conversations
to the forefront.

Speaker 6 (01:54):
Of we're just having fun with what we're doing. Yeah,
we're just having fun, you know. I mean, I'll put
I'll put this out there. We're here in Provo, Utah
getting ready for big noon kickoff. It leads into Washington
versus Iowa. However, the crew will be here for a

(02:15):
big Saturday Joel Klatt, Gus Johnson, Jenny Taff they'll be
here for the Arizon A BYU game. And BYU has
a quarterback named Jake rhetz Laf who is the first
Jewish quarterback ever at BYU. So there's been a lot
of discussion about which his path.

Speaker 3 (02:36):
It's very interesting. I mean, he he's.

Speaker 6 (02:38):
Got a very unique path just how he got to BYU,
playing a multiple community college, you know Juco's, and then
in his decision to come here, in the impact of
you know, his faith and the faith obviously at b YU,
it's been interesting.

Speaker 3 (02:53):
I mean, look, they're one of the better stories in
college football.

Speaker 6 (02:55):
They're picked to finish I think what thirteenth or whatever
it was, and then Big Twelve this year, and they've
they've found a way to be undefeated at this point
with the shot of going and playing for a national
championship in the College faball playoffs. So it's one of
those incredible stories that college football tends to find every
single year, and at least at this juncture, the BYU

(03:18):
looks to be one of those teams man that that
may be in the driver's seat here the Big Twelve.

Speaker 5 (03:21):
Do people have an issue with him being Jewish and
being the quarterback there.

Speaker 3 (03:25):
Or no, there's no issue, which is just a rarity.

Speaker 4 (03:28):
Yeah, Well, I mean.

Speaker 1 (03:29):
Think about do people have issues with guys that aren't
you know, Catholic that go to Notre Dame.

Speaker 6 (03:34):
Well, we had guys who were Jovah's witness that went
to I mean, my roommate, one of my backups was
a Jovah's witness, So there you go talk about the
difference in faith. And I remember one of the one
of the players who was Jovah's witness during mass, because
we'd have mass right before the games. He would actually
take a nap in the confessional booth, so someone would

(03:57):
just knock on the door.

Speaker 3 (04:00):
Bell.

Speaker 4 (04:02):
That stops sitting so much.

Speaker 3 (04:05):
That's so funny. Yeah, when.

Speaker 4 (04:11):
At school, you know, I also think the I also.

Speaker 3 (04:16):
Think the everything changed when Jim McMahon went to b
y U.

Speaker 4 (04:19):
You know that guy.

Speaker 5 (04:23):
Yeah, it's like, you don't have to be one way
in order to be accepted here. If you can sling it,
you can sling it. Because Jim command was definitely there's.

Speaker 6 (04:30):
Been a pretty big gap between Jake Brett's laughing Jim McMahon.

Speaker 5 (04:34):
Well, I'm just saying, like, I think he was the
one who started the whole trend towards it.

Speaker 6 (04:38):
He started and then there was like a thirty five
year gap, and now it's kicking back in again.

Speaker 3 (04:41):
That's correct, That is correct. That's great analysis.

Speaker 6 (04:44):
And by the way, it's almost like you like like
you're in Sino man, like you woke up in a
frozen ice cube and you all of a sudden just
got thought out like the seventies and eighties.

Speaker 5 (04:53):
Because I don't want you to steal that take and
use it tomorrow on Big Neon Kickoff.

Speaker 3 (04:57):
Okay, why would I ever steal your because.

Speaker 5 (04:59):
It's because you know that was piping hot. You know
that was piping hot. Here's what else is piping hot.
Joe Burrow after a five touchdown performance against the Baltimore
Ravens at the end of the year. Forget about the
fact that they lost that game, which is crazy. Yeah,
it's sure, is man not for some of us still

(05:21):
pisses me off. But Joe Burrow was speaking recently about
the recovery from his injury. He spoke about this with
the media and said, well, listen, I mean he's getting there,
but he's still got a ways to go.

Speaker 7 (05:34):
It's some not quite thrown it the way that I
would like. You know, I'm making good decisions, I'm putting
the ball where I want to, and I still think
there's another level of improvement that I can get to
coming back from injury on ball location and spin rate
and all that. So that's going to continue to get
better as I get healthier, and so there's there's always
another level to find.

Speaker 5 (05:54):
So Joe Burrow discussing his recovery from injury, Yeah, I.

Speaker 3 (05:58):
Got to be honest, I don't know that it's ever
gonna be what it was. You know.

Speaker 6 (06:04):
The truth of the matter is when you go through
injuries and LeVar you can obviously speak to this too.

Speaker 3 (06:09):
You know, your body changes and you kind of just
adapt to a new normal.

Speaker 6 (06:13):
I always, you know, kind of question and wonder when
people are like, oh, it's gonna, you know, feel like
this after such a long period of time, I'm like, well,
is it going to feel like that? Because my body's
adapted to whatever that new normal is and how it feels.

Speaker 3 (06:26):
You know.

Speaker 6 (06:26):
I fractured my right index finger my second year in
the league, and they had to put pins in and
they had to stay in for six weeks. So they
cast it, they put these pins in, and then eventually
they take the cast off and they they take the
pins out, and then you start literally rehabbing my right
index finger.

Speaker 3 (06:44):
I mean.

Speaker 6 (06:44):
The problem with it is is, you know, I tried
to play the following week, so it kind of distorted
how much they could really do to kind of make
my finger back to what it was before I'd broken
and tore off these you know, tendons and ligaments. And
the issue with that was is it was never going
to be the same and how it felt. And it
doesn't sound like a big issue because it's a right

(07:05):
index finger, but when you're right handed and you throw
the football, that's the very last thing that touches the football.
You know, you go ask you know, any picture any
you know, I mean, you've seen pictures going the r
il for a hangnail, like anything that has to do
with that, that throwing hand or that right arm is
incredibly valuable. And to this day, like I still don't

(07:28):
have feeling in my right endex finger.

Speaker 3 (07:30):
Or the tip of it.

Speaker 6 (07:30):
It never felt the same after pulling the pins out
and rehabbing it and trying to throw again. And I'm
not saying that as you know, anything to do with it.
You know, you just got to adapt to a new normal.
That's how the game's played. But that's the challenge for
Joe Burrow is what, howeverver that risk feels, however his
throwing motion feels, He's got to keep working and finding
a way of getting to his maximum ceiling and trying

(07:51):
to stay there as much as he can, despite the
fact that he's gonna have to deal with this the
rest of his career.

Speaker 8 (07:56):
Hmm.

Speaker 1 (07:59):
Oh, Listen, injuries can always it does change things, and
it does complicate things. It also brings you to the
realization that you only have so much you know, you
only have so much time. And whether it's crazy because

(08:20):
and whether you're in your first year or your second year,
if you sustain one of those injuries that brings you
to that realization, you still have to come to the
same conclusion. Ultimately, you have to approach each day, each practice,
each game like it could be your last. And and
you know, that was kind of something that in my mind,

(08:44):
I said it during the years that I played, like, oh,
high school ball. You know, the coaches say it to
you in high school, they say it to you in
Little league. Actually, I heard coaches say, you know, when
the day you might not have the next you know,
you might get hurt, you might not have this next practice.
To work hard, you know, take advantage of what you got.

(09:04):
Same thing in high school, same thing in college. But
I never really believed it, you know, you never really
believe that something's going to alter you know, what it
is that you have going on. I wouldn't have thought that,
you know, my career would have been derailed by injury
like I heard. I heard so many guys say it,
And for the longest time, I'd be like, man, you're
a loser. I don't care if you're a future Hall

(09:27):
of Famer, I don't care what you are. Like if
you start attributing why everything went wrong to an injury
like Kyle Lee, like bruh, like take a like take
a bow and get the hell out of the way.
Like that's kind of like always was my mentality until
I got hurt and I was then I became one
of them dudes. I was like, damn, I'm really hurt,

(09:49):
like and this ain't going to change. And I do
have to figure out what my new normal is and
I do have to try to.

Speaker 3 (09:56):
Strategize on what I did.

Speaker 1 (09:57):
Man, my last two years in the National Football League, bro,
I went into the into the into the facility. UH
probably like to at least two hours before you were
actually supposed to start, like matriculating in just so that

(10:20):
I could do my whole prehab and rehab. You know, routines, contrasting,
you know, from stem to to specified lifts.

Speaker 3 (10:31):
In the in the gym, you name it.

Speaker 1 (10:34):
I was doing it, and I still blew my ass out.
My achilles tendon still went. It still ruptured. All of
the stretching, stretching board, everything that they did, preventative data
that you name.

Speaker 3 (10:50):
It, It still popped, you know what I mean.

Speaker 1 (10:54):
So I don't know how much that applies to Joe
Burrow in his situation, but that the whole idea of
understanding or coming to the realization that you know, something
that you've altered isn't ever going to be what it
once was. That's a sobering moment. Man, if you really
have that true moment, it's a sobering moment.

Speaker 3 (11:17):
So the sobering moment for him.

Speaker 6 (11:20):
Has to be the fact that, you know, this is
what year five for him in the NFL. And if
you go through his journey, I mean, the reason why
he ended up at LSU is in some in some
parts attributed to him injuring. I believe it's throwing hand
and the like the spring and he couldn't you know,
fully participate and compete the way he wanted to and

(11:43):
so then that kind of led to him down and
then going to LSU, and thank god he was able
to be healthy for those final two years because that
made the difference in everything. I mean, he went from
you know, a guy who was kind of forgotten about
to in his first year, played some really good football
in the second half of the season at LSU, and
then literally having what I would still to this day

(12:05):
define as the greatest singular season in college football history
for a quarterback. I mean, that offense was unbelievable, and
he was unbelievable. I mean, the way they won the
national championship, the highest and everything. I mean, it was
one of the most amazing stories and performances that I

(12:27):
had seen. Like I didn't I didn't know if a
quarterback could play at that high of a level for
the entirety of a season like that, through the playoff
and everything. And he did it. And he eventually becomes
the number one overall pick. But then those injuries keep resurfacing,
you know now in Cincinnati, and it's just it's unfortunate,
you know, but he's he's got to find it. He's

(12:49):
got to find a way of overcoming that and adapting
to a new normal. It's no different than when you're
playing with an injury. You know, you got to go
out there and figure out like what you have, what
you don't have, and you know, almost like a pitcher
on the mound, like some days you're not going to
have some of those off speed pitches. You know, maybe
your location is not quite as good. Well, you're starting today,
so you got to you got to figure out how
to work around that, and you have to figure out

(13:10):
how to still get those guys out. Maybe it's not strikeouts,
maybe it's groundouts, maybe it's flyouts, whatever the case is, Like,
that's the mentality. It's it's tough to deal with, but
that's what you're tasked with when you're a quarterback. So
I'm hoping that, you know, we get to see more
of what we saw this past week because he truly.

Speaker 3 (13:27):
Can be one of the best in the game.

Speaker 6 (13:29):
And as far as the people who are tired of
seeing the Kansas City Chiefs dominate the AFC, well, outside
of Josh Allen, outside of Lamar Jackson, outside.

Speaker 3 (13:37):
Of maybe CJ.

Speaker 6 (13:38):
Stroud, who I think will be challenging you know them
in the future, it's Joe Burrow. You know, Burrow has
been that next quarterback that's been as good as anyone
at challenging the Chiefs for trying to, you know, not
allow them to keep having their way through. What I
still think is, you know, the better conference, the more
difficult path.

Speaker 5 (13:55):
I mean, there's been two quarterbacks that have beaten Patrick
Mahomes in the playoffs, Joe Burrow and Tom Brady. Tom
Brady's calling games, Joe Burrow's coming back from this injury.
So and I would also say, wouldn't you agree.

Speaker 1 (14:06):
Burrow and those guys that we're naming don't play against
Patrick Mahomes. You gotta have a defense. And the one
thing that Patrick Mahomes has had his defense. You know,
he's had spags, He's had a defense of you know,
units that have really really complemented their offense so well.

Speaker 5 (14:29):
I mean, their defense has been better than their offense recently.

Speaker 1 (14:32):
And that's what you know to me at times, that's
the separation. When you look at what's taking place with
Cincinnati right now, that's an Achilles hill for them.

Speaker 6 (14:42):
You know, he's despite the fact we're having this conversation,
he is playing well. He is, like Burrow's not playing
bad this year.

Speaker 3 (14:49):
By the means, That's what I'm saying.

Speaker 1 (14:51):
So it's kind of hard to like, look at the
fact that he is playing well. He is playing well.
It's not like he's playing subpar football. He's playing Let's.

Speaker 3 (15:02):
Let's say he stays on the streak, he's up for
the MVP. Now.

Speaker 6 (15:07):
The only problem is is we tend to only give
the MVP to players who have a winning record or
there in the playoff hunt. And that's the problem is
there are a one and four football team. But I mean,
he's completely number seventy two percent of his passes, He's
tied or leading the league in touchdown passes.

Speaker 3 (15:23):
I believe he's only thrown two picks.

Speaker 6 (15:25):
You know, he's already at thirteen hundred yards, almost twelve
hundred yard ors fourteen hundred yards.

Speaker 3 (15:29):
Excuse me.

Speaker 6 (15:30):
I mean he's going to be on pace to have
some of the best stats of everyone ever have anyone
in the NFL this year the quarterback spot. So then
it just comes down to where's this team at when
it's all said and done, at least for the individual accolades.

Speaker 1 (15:43):
Yeah, I just think it's it's hard to overcome if
you don't have the balance right if something like, for instance,
you know, we don't we generally don't talk about special
teams unless you know, something bad happens, Right, But we
didn't even bring up in the conversation about the Seattle game.
It was special teams that kind of was the catalyst

(16:03):
for Seattle actually having an opportunity to try to win
the game, you know what I mean. So you're talking
about three phases. You got to win two phases, they say,
out of the three to be able to win a game.
So even if you have the dopest quarterback ever in life,
if you don't win special teams or defense one of

(16:27):
those two to give you the two out of the three,
you're generally not going to win a game in the
National Football League or in college hell, or at any level.
You got to win two out of the three. And
that's just that's what they say. I believe in that.
I've subscribed to that. And you know Joe Burrow doesn't

(16:50):
have that right.

Speaker 5 (16:51):
Now, Well, listen, all I know is if he keeps
playing the way he's playing. Apologies to Sam Darnold, it's
been fun. You can go ahead and step back off.
Comeback player of the Year, all right, that'll be Joe
Burrow's award. And that means if Joe Burrow continues to
keep playing the way he's Wow, my.

Speaker 4 (17:07):
Super Bowl pick is still alive and.

Speaker 8 (17:09):
While right, man, that's where you're at right now.

Speaker 1 (17:12):
Yeah, oh you talking about That's where you're at right now.

Speaker 3 (17:16):
That's your current situation.

Speaker 6 (17:18):
Yeah, that's what I got going on here, man, Hell yeah, hey,
hell yeah.

Speaker 3 (17:22):
Hey looks desolate. Yeah, that's lonely man.

Speaker 8 (17:27):
Hey, that's homeless.

Brady Quinn, you mentioned you are in Provo in Utah.
By the way, I've never been to Utah.

Speaker 3 (18:41):
It's see beautiful, beautiful state. Yeah, i've hiked there before.
Clean air twelve.

Speaker 6 (18:45):
Very clean air. Everything's amazing. It's beautiful. It's in a
wonderful place. By the way, shout out to the Salt
Lake Airport that folks is the best in the country. Oh,
but to me, there is not a nicer, cleaner restaurants.
It's very easy to navigate for an airport that's like
rather large for this side of the country. I think

(19:09):
it's my favorite. I think it's my favorite airport I've
ever been to. It is that nice, It is that
easy to get around, great food options. I'm not sure
if they've been a renovation recently, but it looks it's
nice as hell. I mean, it really is the cleanest,
nicest one I've ever been through.

Speaker 4 (19:25):
Yeah, up top, Brady, what you're saying?

Speaker 3 (19:29):
Why is that up top? What you made? Joe? Say
what you mean? I'm just saying, man, I'm just say
what you mean. I don't even know what you're saying. Like,
what are you? What are you saying? People living? Jo?

Speaker 5 (19:42):
What do you mean the Jazz have been to the finals?
Oh my gosh, I'm just saying, there is so much.

Speaker 3 (19:49):
Wrong with you. You Yeah, you much wrong with you.
You have problems.

Speaker 6 (19:56):
Okay, I'm sick of this for there and no a
way shape or form was the airport? Uh not diverse
in nature as far as it was.

Speaker 3 (20:05):
In the airport. So I don't even know where you
get that from.

Speaker 5 (20:07):
By the way, what do they got on draft there
at those bars like Ziema and Caprice Son?

Speaker 3 (20:12):
That wasn't bar hopping at the airport?

Speaker 8 (20:13):
On it way to try to change the subject.

Speaker 5 (20:16):
Change what they have there, change what subject? The JAD
in the finals up top. I'm trying to sit here
and celebrate Jeff Horniseck and you want to like steer
us down the path first off?

Speaker 6 (20:31):
I mean, oh no, are you really not going to
mention like John Stockton like all the like.

Speaker 3 (20:38):
It's just too easy.

Speaker 4 (20:42):
Great uster, Remember.

Speaker 3 (20:46):
That's a good one too.

Speaker 5 (20:48):
By the way, elsewhere in the state of Utah, Cam
Rising is apparently back. According to Urban Myer's Biggest Yeah,
Cam Rising.

Speaker 3 (20:58):
Will be raf the for the Utah.

Speaker 5 (21:01):
Utes coming up later on tonight, So it's a big,
big day of college football, big weekend of college football.
Cam Rising is finally returned. By the way, fun fact,
Cam Rising just celebrated his thirty eighth birthday and he'll
be back.

Speaker 6 (21:17):
Can we touch on the speculation that there was an
article before it was announced yesterday that Cam Rising will
be playing this one. They felt like they had to
make a decision soon on whether or not he was
going to come back for the season, which would have
meant I think he would have been applying for another
year of eligibility into his eighth year.

Speaker 3 (21:34):
Hell, yes, it's nuts. Nevertheless.

Speaker 6 (21:38):
Yes, Tonight, eight thirty pm Eastern time, Utah takes on
Arizona State. Look Arizona State, it's a four to one
football team. They're not ranked in the top twenty five,
but they've they've been good, talked about camp Scottaboo and
Sam Levette like those two.

Speaker 3 (21:51):
Those two could make this a game for sure. Pete
Pritsko won't claim him.

Speaker 6 (21:56):
Well, that's that's because they don't ever show him any
attention or anything out. He's bashed them for like the
past three decades because every single time they send him
a letter to donate, like a hundred bucks, he won't
donate anything.

Speaker 3 (22:07):
He's a cheap skit.

Speaker 6 (22:10):
I can't tell you how many meals I've botten that
man on a Sunday or out when we went out
in public.

Speaker 1 (22:15):
Tang thang, Pete double p. You know now who's worst?
Who's worst? Rob Parker or Pete Prisco.

Speaker 6 (22:24):
Oh, I say, I've never been out with Rob, so
I really can't speak to that.

Speaker 3 (22:28):
I've only been around Pete and.

Speaker 1 (22:30):
I've only heard the stories about either one. But it
was just it just popped in my mind.

Speaker 3 (22:34):
Who you know?

Speaker 1 (22:36):
I hurt the credit card segment with Doug Gottlieb The
one day.

Speaker 3 (22:40):
I was like, dang, this dude, Rob Parker. Man, that's
Rob Parker.

Speaker 1 (22:46):
Like he uh so that dude probably has like fifteen
million dollars saved away somewhere. Man.

Speaker 3 (22:53):
Yeah, he's it's pretty.

Speaker 5 (22:55):
He won't like see you know, uh, you can buy
those makeup wipes to wear if you've got to wear
makeup for TV, you can wipe your face off.

Speaker 3 (23:02):
Like he still borrows mine. He won't buy his own.

Speaker 5 (23:06):
And the only time he had his own where he
had like a free travel size, a couple of free
travel packs that he had. And so to this day
he still just won't buy his own.

Speaker 3 (23:16):
And then when he.

Speaker 5 (23:17):
Goes on trips or vacations, he doesn't want to pay
for tea drinks a lot of hot tea, so he
carries his own tea bags that he gets from Ralph
Servan's and they're the store brand.

Speaker 3 (23:29):
They're not even like legitimately.

Speaker 5 (23:33):
I knew that like Kirkland brand tea bags he carries
get out.

Speaker 6 (23:40):
Oftentimes those things are actually made at the same facility.
Like that's what people don't realize. It's all about branding. Yeah,
I'm a kirk When will have a facility where they're
making the same high expensive teeth throwing someone else's label
on it.

Speaker 5 (23:50):
Now, I buy this store brand stuff all the time,
Like I don't pay for like Scope or Listerine.

Speaker 6 (23:56):
How are you throwing like Pete Prisco or Rob Parker
on the US You're just as cheap.

Speaker 5 (24:01):
But I'm not bringing travel tea bags. Wait for me
to go on a trip.

Speaker 3 (24:07):
I had to.

Speaker 6 (24:08):
I've been battling with a little sickness this week. I
had to bring some tea bags.

Speaker 1 (24:12):
You could be belligerently cheap too, like Lee, you know,
like take them to somewhere upscale, and Lee's like, yes,
could you bring please bring me your list of your
finest wines please, like looking at this dude, Yes, I
will have another glass?

Speaker 2 (24:32):
Like why did have the cheapest wine they had?

Speaker 3 (24:34):
Just hold on, wait, hold on, loads up on bread
and butter too.

Speaker 1 (24:39):
Wait, hold on, what you mean you want that eight
hundred dollars bottle of wine?

Speaker 10 (24:45):
I did not want an eight hundred dollar I had
the cheapest one they had.

Speaker 2 (24:50):
That way, what can I get you guys?

Speaker 8 (24:52):
Can I get a lot of wine in that place?

Speaker 3 (24:55):
Anyway?

Speaker 2 (24:56):
Whine was cheaper than the cocktail was?

Speaker 3 (24:58):
It shouts out to the gold there. Yeah, listen, man,
I listen. I just know that. Lee was like, yeah,
I think I'll have another glass.

Speaker 2 (25:07):
By the way, I guess I will have another.

Speaker 5 (25:08):
By the way, that wasn't the only time during that
Vegas Super Bowl run that Lee had a.

Speaker 3 (25:12):
Bottle of wine.

Speaker 10 (25:14):
Wow, that was gifted to us. That was a gifted
bottle of oil.

Speaker 4 (25:19):
Some fans are like, hey, send this over to Brady Quinn.

Speaker 3 (25:22):
We loved you in Cleveland.

Speaker 5 (25:24):
Little did they know Lee to Lap went home with it.

Speaker 3 (25:29):
Is it still there or is it gone there? It
didn't make it past.

Speaker 2 (25:32):
This room that I don't think it made it to
the room.

Speaker 3 (25:35):
I think we got it.

Speaker 2 (25:36):
We got there.

Speaker 4 (25:37):
He was drinking all the elevator.

Speaker 3 (25:39):
Why do you say we yes everything off?

Speaker 2 (25:42):
Well, yeah, I don't like that.

Speaker 6 (25:46):
Like walking out, would would go grab a drink on
someone else's table it's like three quarters away full and
would finish it off.

Speaker 1 (25:52):
Oh yeah, the type of guy that would be like, ay, man,
they got us, man, come from come from around the trees.

Speaker 3 (26:01):
They caught us a man. We had a guy who
were the US at TGI Fridays.

Speaker 5 (26:06):
He was a busboy and if somebody left like like
uneaten food on the as you got back to the kitchen.
He would be eating out of the bus tub when
they were taking it back to the dishwasher, and one
of the customers complained to the manager and said, hey,
is this the way you run things here? The manager's like,
I'm sorry, sir, what are you talking about? He goes,
you got guys eating out of bus tubs before they

(26:26):
go on the back breadstick out side.

Speaker 6 (26:31):
But this just triggered my memory. I also know another
rat from Chuck E Cheese. Oh no, really, you are
not the only rat from Chuck E Cheese that I
know that's supposed to be. That's crazy. I'm just saying, buddy,
I don't know. I'm just done the job. It sounds
like they did it longer than you did too, you time,
and so they.

Speaker 3 (26:50):
Have all sorts of different stories from it.

Speaker 6 (26:53):
But yeah, one of our stats guys at Fox at
Fox Sports, he also was the rat at Chuck E Cheese.

Speaker 3 (27:00):
That's kind of crazy.

Speaker 5 (27:02):
Hold on a second. No, but but but I did
it better? No, wait what In fact, this is what happened.
A guy called in sick one day he had to
go put it on. He was like the only person
in there that I guess volunteered to do it, and
he did so well that they had other people who
came back for birthday parties that require looking, and he

(27:22):
got legit tips out of it. So he kept doing
it for a period of time because he was getting.

Speaker 6 (27:27):
Such good money from it, even though the entire thing
smelled like vomit and he couldn't stand out of theware head.

Speaker 3 (27:33):
How hot and muggy that thing was.

Speaker 1 (27:36):
I wonder if you could parlay that into getting a
mom or getting one of the employees you work with.
Was there any type of swag connected to being like,
no are the main character?

Speaker 6 (27:47):
It was a it's a big time shot that Jonas,
who's kind of claimed this title.

Speaker 3 (27:50):
For a while. And you aren't that, amma, oh?

Speaker 5 (27:53):
Because you are you going to celebrate fooling around on
me behind my back talking to another rat from Chuck
E Cheese?

Speaker 4 (27:59):
You were a two.

Speaker 5 (28:00):
Timing scumbag, breaking Quinn And let me tell you, do
you ever get tips?

Speaker 4 (28:04):
Whoever the stats guy is.

Speaker 5 (28:06):
Answer the question, Jonas question, Yes I did, and I'm
getting to that. Whoever the stack guy is, tell this
twerp to take a back seat. I actually did a
bachelorette party and got cash handed to me from the
bachelorettes while dressed up as Chucky on a Friday night.

Speaker 4 (28:21):
That is the facts, Jack.

Speaker 3 (28:23):
You put a thone on Chuck E Cheese, So.

Speaker 4 (28:25):
Put that in your stat pipe and smoke it.

Speaker 1 (28:27):
What do you mean a bachelorette party silk, you use
the outfit or costume outside of Chuck E Cheese.

Speaker 5 (28:33):
No, they came in to have their bachelorette party at
Chuck E Cheese, I swear to God, and the manager
came to.

Speaker 1 (28:40):
Ever married her. You are You're either divorced by now. Oh,
you're either dead from her murdering you.

Speaker 5 (28:48):
Or biggest losers in the world by complete losers, Like
if you're gonna have a.

Speaker 8 (28:52):
Bachelor bachelorette parties at Chuck.

Speaker 3 (28:54):
E Cheese, just disgusting.

Speaker 8 (28:56):
You are one hundred percent a loser.

Speaker 3 (28:58):
But but they got that work from me. Well they
get it down.

Speaker 4 (29:03):
Come on, you better believe it.

Speaker 5 (29:05):
And plus it was later on too, so we waited
till all the kids' birthday parties they had filed over
to the game room. And so the manager said, all right,
I'm giving you approval to do this because we're not
very busy tonight. But there's a bachelorette party out there.
I'm like, can I really do it? He goes, just
make sure nobody's looking, and they got that work.

Speaker 3 (29:24):
They got that work. That's great. I'm just letting you
know you're not the only one and apparently scheduled it long.

Speaker 4 (29:31):
Can you try and make me jealous all you want.

Speaker 6 (29:32):
We're not trying to make you jealous. I'm just pointing
out that I completely forgot about this. But he told
the story last week. I don't know how I hadn't
heard the story before. All right, I'll tell you what
I mean.

Speaker 3 (29:42):
I've been working with him almost as long as you jump.
You're upset that you're not the only run.

Speaker 4 (29:45):
Yeah, I'm sick of this.

Speaker 3 (29:46):
You know what, here's the probise.

Speaker 6 (29:48):
Jonas has his material, and if anyone steps on that material,
it takes away from some of his ammos, so he's
never building more material.

Speaker 3 (29:56):
Okay, just got his material. Go ahead. Took him down.
You took him down the day.

Speaker 4 (30:00):
Okay, I'll tell you what.

Speaker 5 (30:01):
You want to play this game, I'll start doing a
podcast with Jimmy Claus and we can play this game.

Speaker 3 (30:06):
Yeah, we can play this game. That notre dame.

Speaker 5 (30:09):
I think a Matt levekea where yet we can start
playing this game?

Speaker 3 (30:13):
You want to go down this road? Whatever? Wallas Ron's
backed on campus. He's in Associated PA's Finest You.

a voice.

Speaker 1 (31:11):
Okay, man, all right, well you learned a lot about people,
so much for you being the number one rat.

of the heat for this. Why don't you tell everybody

(32:46):
how you would like to preview these college football games
that are coming up?

Speaker 10 (32:51):
Well, I wanted to appease everyone this week. I know
we have some mixed feelings about picks against the spread.
So if you want a little bit of a recap
last week, I'll just do it real quick. LeVar, you
had the Vikings over the Jets. Yeah, Jonas and Brady,
you guys both took the Texans over the Bills.

Speaker 3 (33:07):
Oh yeah.

Speaker 10 (33:07):
Brady was the only one who had the Ravens over
the Bengals, and and Jonas was the only one who
had the Cardinals over the Niners. Everyone had the Cowboys
over the Steelers. Came out three and two for both
Brady and Jonas. LeVar two and three. LeVar lost your lead,
but you are tied with Jonas at the top fifteen
and ten, Brady lose.

Speaker 3 (33:25):
The lead, He's still tied with him. Is that the lead?
He's just tied. Okay, if you want to say that,
if you lost the lead, he'd behind Jonas, he's not.
Jonas is even with him. There you go. LeVar is
still the top. There you go.

Speaker 2 (33:35):
You are correct there and Brady, you are not far
behind nine and sixteen.

Speaker 3 (33:40):
Guys, that's pretty far behind.

Speaker 2 (33:41):
Yeah, I'm trying to make you feel better.

Speaker 3 (33:43):
You have to understand I don't care about this, my
name on it.

Speaker 2 (33:47):
Well, I think you're gonna care Thisay.

Speaker 6 (33:49):

we're still winning. I'm crushing Knox locks. How about that
man crushing Knox locks.

Speaker 2 (33:56):
Well, maybe you'll feel better about it this week.

Speaker 9 (33:58):
Boy, what five lines?

Speaker 3 (34:04):
Not those kind of lines? Five picks, five spreads? Time
for picks against the spread.

Speaker 10 (34:10):
You might like picks against the spread this week, Brady,
because now we're doing college football. We got Texas at Oklahoma.
Texas is fourteen point favorites on the road.

Speaker 3 (34:19):

Speaker 6 (34:21):
I'm gonna take Oklahoma robbery game. I think with Hawkins
now starting a quarterback, a.

Couple of weeks to prepare.

Speaker 6 (34:27):
I think this is one of those games with Quinn
you were was coming back to as good as you
know he is, Texas's I think they can keep it
within a couple.

Speaker 8 (34:36):
Scores money line in this one. Oklahoma's going to win.

or not they show up a different story they.

Speaker 3 (35:50):
Did last week. Nice rebound. But I'm gonna lay the
points here with old Miss.

Speaker 8 (35:55):

I win.

Speaker 4 (36:50):
Well, let's get this way.

Speaker 3 (36:51):
You could start with the both of you.

could start tied.
