Speaker 1 (00:00):
Ladies and gentlemen, Boys and girls, Welcome back to another
installment of For the Fan, Episode number one fifty five.
I am well, we got domind Jake, and we got
my golf clubs in the background that I coincidentally forgot
to put back in my car. But gentlemen, hello, you
believe it. I could show my box of skates and
golf shoes and all that other stuff I got in
(00:23):
the corner over here. Yeah that's over there. But yes,
one final episode left of the regular Well, our regular
season is uh now it's here, and uh yeah. It's
one of the sadder parts of the season, going through
just about twenty nine weeks of talking football and here
we are. It's the end.
Speaker 2 (00:47):
It's says that long, but it is the end.
Speaker 1 (00:49):
It is sad. And you know what, I forgot to
make that lower third graphic today. I knew I forgot something.
Forgot to make that lower third little graphic. So well
it's okay, Yeah, we blew it, We blew it all.
I'll figure that out momentarily. But gentlemen, we're gonna get
into it right now. You're listening to the last part
(01:11):
of our regular season For the Fan. You are listening
to for the fan, and here we go, we have
(01:39):
some news to actually talk about, not just the Super Bowl,
We actually have some news that we can talk about
and the whole ten yards here. So let's talk about
the first one that just dropped actually officially forty one
minutes ago, and the NFL is moving ahead aka the
time zones. Melbourne, Australia to host a regular season game
(01:59):
in twenty twenty is a reported a multi year agreement
between the NFL and Australia. The first team that host
is the Rams, and there is reports that the Eagles
with Jordmia a Lotta the greatest Australian to ever live
beep playing down there in twenty twenty six.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
And let's hear yeah, yeah, I was gonna say, all right,
to ever play a sport in America. Let's just all right,
Steve Irwin is greatest.
Speaker 1 (02:27):
Steve Irwin's the greatest human to ever live. Okay, let's
let's talk about my Alatta, one of the better athletes
from Australia to live in the US. But yes, what
are your guys' thoughts on the NFL? Now it's a
global thing. That's the first time they've been this far
in the time zone since playing preseason games in Japan
in the early two thousands. So yeah, very long time
(02:49):
since they've been this far ahead, at least in the
time zone situation.
Speaker 3 (02:53):
It almost feels like it has to be a week
one game more then like a two week off thing,
like a week zero in college football, it's like sixteen
hours off.
Speaker 2 (03:03):
It's what they do in the NHL. The NHL they
have they have that whatever Finland game or den Mark
or wherever the heck they're playing.
Speaker 1 (03:12):
Did they play a preseason game in Australia like last year,
like two years ago, Nathan Walk, It was like it
was like the Coyotes and the Blue Jackets. It was
like the worst two teams they could possibly send out there,
and they just said, you know what, have fun, here's
a home and home.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
No, it's because then Australian players on it, Nathan Walker.
But they I guess they didn't do it. They get canceled.
Speaker 4 (03:33):
I think I canceled it.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
But us in the NHL they do like a half
a week before the season technically starts, or a week
before the season technically starts, they do the whole event.
Whatever European country that they're doing it, and then they
play two games out there, but they make it. They
make it a week long thing where they practice out there,
(03:56):
they do community events out there, they do a bunch
of stuff preseason game probably again like some of the
teams out there, and then they have two regular season
NHL games, like a week half a week before the
actual regular season starts and North America. But I mean,
like Jake said, I think I think that'd be the
(04:17):
best case. To do it in week would be nuts
to me.
Speaker 4 (04:20):
Yeah, like a week seven absolutely ridiculous.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
Yeah, I don't know if you can do that. You'd
have the team's buyes, but like the.
Speaker 4 (04:30):
End, yeah, almost use both your buys. Make it makes sense?
Speaker 2 (04:35):
So it is. Yeah, I don't know that a week
one would probably make the most amount of sense because
then you have the or not even a week one,
but like a week week zero half. Yeah, if you
like threw it on a Wednesday or a Thursday before
the week one slate, So because that's a bye week
already for the preseason, you didn't need to work it out.
(04:59):
Is there any are there any other logistics here? Well?
Speaker 1 (05:03):
Or is that it all other than the rams are
gonna be the first team to host down there, and
looking ahead to their schedule, it's the Commanders and the Eagles,
the entire NFC West, a NFC South opponent to be determined,
and then the Raiders and the Broncos. Those are That
(05:27):
is the Rams home schedule for twenty twenty six for
what we know of so far. So that's all that
we have there. And then there's the multi year agreement,
which no idea how long that would be, no idea
if it's gonna be like three years, five years, whatever.
But there's already Spain, there's talks to potentially Portugal, you
(05:48):
have Germany already, the UK. I don't know, why don't
we go back to the Rogers Center. Let's play some
football up in Canada again. I missed when the Abills
would play up there at least one game a year.
But that's really all we got right now.
Speaker 2 (06:00):
Basically already do what It's like a twenty minute drive
and they're playing in Canada.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
I don't think you could go straight. You have to
go around the entire lake that's there Ontario.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
That's true.
Speaker 1 (06:12):
Yeah, you can't. Yeah, you have to go one way
or the other. It's probably a twenty minute flight.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
But Chicago too, right, Chicago's that close as well. I
don't know, no sure.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
Now he crossed over the lake where Chicago is, it's
all uh still America, still there. But yeah, we got
news about Australia. Let's talk about some other trade news
that came out Monday. Miles Garrett officially wants out out
of cle to Cleveland. He wants out, has two years
(06:46):
remaining on his deal forty five million dollars. If the
Browns end up getting rid of them, they will eat
thirty six million dollars in space. But Garrett's contract is
not guaranteed anymore. All the guaranteed money's gone. They want
to sign them to a new extension. Your rain defensive
player of the year for at least the next couple
of hours. Uh. Yeah, he wants out of Cleveland. And
then the Rams told Cooper Cup they're actively trying to
(07:08):
trade him. So the end of Cooper Cup. In that
very first draft class from Sean mcvayh the second pick
in his regime was Cooper Cup number sixty nine nice
overall out of Washington. So yeah, what are your guys
thoughts on both of these? One's a big guy who
can make a game wrecking ability on the defensive line
(07:30):
the other guy. Hey, hopefully he could return to that
formu that we once saw in twenty twenty one with
him being a triple Crown winner in receiving.
Speaker 2 (07:41):
I don't know, I think it's kind of obvious by
now that what Jade von Clowney said years ago was
kind of at least partially correct true where it just
feels like the organization and coaching staff kind of does
what they need to do to get Miles Garrett those
(08:03):
stats and like cater to him a little bit, because
I mean, I've said it for years. Any path rusher
that goes to Cleveland, their career dies like every time. Period.
It just happens every time. But who doesn't Miles Garrett
every time? I mean, he's a stut straight up. He'll
be good wherever, But I I don't know.
Speaker 3 (08:26):
He also like kind of hold up the cards so
you kind of dictate where he wants to go.
Speaker 2 (08:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (08:31):
Probably the Browns have come out and said they were
not trading him, so this could be a very long
lasting offseason thing. So this could be the same as
Deebo Samuel we saw a couple of years ago. Branton,
you last offseason, so we could see how long this
ends up going out for the Browns have come out
and said, hey, we're willing to pay you a new contract,
like they're not afraid to give him, you know another
(08:51):
what one hundred and thirty hundred and forty million dollars.
I mean, hey, one of the best defensive ends in
football and quite so. He led the league again this
year and no, he didn't leave. Believe in sack to.
Speaker 3 (09:02):
A second, like Everready said, is like I want to
win games, and you guys aren't gonna do it. So
I don't care what them like. They can throw the
most guaranteed money ever at them.
Speaker 4 (09:11):
Don't think the sign back there.
Speaker 2 (09:12):
Yeah, I think we're kind of passed the money part.
I do think Cleveland's making a mistake by not I'm
gonna get it, Like he's a generational talent of a
pass rusher, like that's what winning defensive player of the
Year is, But like, what are you gonna do, dude?
(09:33):
Like what is Cleveland? I think Cleveland's pretty much cooked
top about this point. Coaching even like everything, I'm really
pretty over Cleveland as an as a football team at
this moment and their chance to maybe turn that in
a direction and like steer the ship in a whole
(09:54):
different direction is probably him. I mean, the return you're
gonna get is Khalil mack Worthy. Whether the Raiders, I think,
with their return is another thing. But the Raider's got
a crap ton of stuff out of that return from
Klo mac Uh. And you're looking at probably a similar
(10:14):
situation for the Brown if they were to trade Miles Garrett.
So I mean, do it. You're making a mistake by
holding on to something that is pointless at this point.
I mean you got to lean into it. Correct Your
situation or organization right now is not in the right place.
(10:36):
You have a lot of issues, you haven't figured a
lot of stuff out. You're not in the best light
with Deshaun Watson. You haven't been since that happened. That
was a huge trade that you guys messed up. There's
a lot wrong in Cleveland, and I do think he's
the key to maybe some correction there. So this just
(10:56):
makes it worse. If you're going to do this whole
thing and make it a whole parade here we are,
I don't know. This just proves that probably nothing's gonna
change for Cleveland and their fans next year.
Speaker 1 (11:11):
I think let's play a little matchmaker here. Where do
you guys think Miles Garrett could go? If the Brown said,
you know what, hey, we're terrible, We're a terrible football organization,
and hey, let's let's get some draft capital, because you know,
we only gave away ten years worth of draft picks
to get the Shan Watson who's played a whopping seventeen
games in the last three years. So in a perfect world,
(11:33):
where do you guys think Miles Garrett could potentially land.
There's obviously one that I think is like blatantly obvious.
I don't know if you guys have any ideas of
maybe this team could go pick them up. This team
could go after him.
Speaker 3 (11:46):
Well monetarily when that makes sense is the Commanders, but
I well, it makes least sense financially is Philadelphia. If
it makes most sense like.
Speaker 4 (12:02):
What he wants and the fit is Philadelphia.
Speaker 2 (12:05):
M then there's like the teams that would want to
like the Cowboys and the two couldn't ever dream of
it monetarily. Then there's the teams like Carolina, who like
doesn't have a pass rusher, but why would he that's
a terrible situation, Like that's not the whole point of
(12:27):
him wanting out is not that. So it's got to
be like a pretty playoff team, but one that has money.
I mean, I don't know, maybe like maybe a Seattle.
Speaker 3 (12:38):
That's why I said Washington, because they got money. Washington's
in the championship game.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
Young, there's future.
Speaker 4 (12:46):
Great in your line. Don't really have that many heage rushers.
Speaker 2 (12:50):
I could see a team like Chicago trying to sell
that place, sell him on, sell them on that trade.
I don't think it would work out that well. I
see him also saying yes because of the youth and
the talent. But like, I don't know, I like a
Seattle where it's like a Okay, you know, it's a
fit I think, and it's playoff fringe at least.
Speaker 1 (13:16):
Or like a.
Speaker 2 (13:19):
Like a Rams. I don't know if they have the
money for that now.
Speaker 1 (13:24):
The Rams are trying to free up some cap space
with Cooper cups, so I don't think that would be
a likelihood of that happening. And they're they're willing to
eat a chunk of his salary just to Soli to
you know, move a trade, make a trade. Happen. Yeah,
and then moving to Cup, where do you guys think
Cup could potentially go as this wide receiver free agency
class isn't strong enough, So you're gonna have guys like
(13:46):
Cooper Cup, like a Garrett Wilson. You're gonna have, you know,
a DK Metcalf, maybe a Tyler Lockett that are like, Okay, hey,
maybe we can facilitate something and you know, make these
guys' values go way bigger than what they are. I
don't know if you're trying to do subliminal messaging down,
but I think you're uh think. I don't know if
(14:07):
you're just playing with your jersey because you're bored.
Speaker 2 (14:09):
Now. I know, Kendrick Bourne's out here like trying to
do the thing Matthew and Ahnod was doing where it's
like come to the Patriots blah blah blah. So he did.
He already tweeted at Cooper Cup. I don't know, and
it's it's got I don't think Cooper Cup goes to
the best situation.
Speaker 4 (14:28):
Written all over him.
Speaker 2 (14:30):
Yeah, something like that where it's like a bottom team.
I think gonna be a team that has all the
money in the world, like the Patriots, like the Titans,
like the I don't even know who else who has
a young quarterback not the best situation, the bottom team
this past year. I think it's gonna have to be
a situation like that. I don't I don't think it's
Cooper Cup going to like a great team, Like it's
(14:52):
like Odell Beckham going to the Rams that were penders,
or like to Baltimore where they were content. I don't
think that's ever gonna happen. I think it's really exclusively
going to be a bottom team. So but he could
keep Peas in a team that substantially improves, maybe, But
(15:14):
I don't know. If it comes to the Patriots, I
think it'll be I'll get yards, he'll do his thing,
But I don't know if it's the best situation for him,
you know.
Speaker 1 (15:22):
So I do have one team I think will make
the most sense, and I think it's the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
I don't think they can resign Godwin. I think he's
gonna be too much and Cup is like that right
money for them where they could stay under the cap.
They could still get another guy. She can move McMillan
into the slot who emerged in the last eight games
(15:42):
this year. I think the Buccaneers could be a very
good suitor for Cooper Cup, and I think Cup could
get back to that range of Hey, I was that
number one receiver in the NFL that one year, you know,
one hundred and forty five catches, just short of Calvin
Johnson's record sixteen touchdowns that year. I think I think
the Bucks could be a very big possibility here for
(16:03):
Cooper Cup and maybe getting the Rams some draft capital
back trying to find their next Pooka Nakua.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
In that offense, I think we see a similar fit
or a similar situation to Adam Thielen, Whereas, like you know,
older dude still has it though, like to be a
receiver in this league that's just going to go somewhere
that's more of a lesser team than where he's at
(16:30):
a lesser situation. But I think Cooper Cup, you know,
has a stronger case. Cooper Cup, like you said, I mean,
Tampa Bay would be so ideal for him, hands down,
it's quarterback that's gotten him the ball before.
Speaker 1 (16:43):
No, no, they didn't play together, couples out with injury Yeah.
Speaker 2 (16:48):
Close, but uh yeah, okay, I mean that'd be sick
for Cooper Cup. That might be a best case in there,
to be honest.
Speaker 1 (16:56):
I mean looking at it, I mean, hey, everyone's like
a Baker's written off. And then Cup Cup was terrible,
you know. Down the stretch he had what a couple
games with just one catch to close out the year.
Then he went against the Eagles had five catches. That
was his most since like the beginning of December. So like.
Speaker 2 (17:13):
When Puka came back.
Speaker 1 (17:14):
Yeah, Pooka came back and took the took the volume
with him. Yeah all right, well let me let me
break this down here. So let's break down Willie's Indianapolis
adventure here. So I'm not gonna sing it as the
Colts fan of the year guy who sings all those songs.
I can't do it. But uh yeah, let me break
(17:36):
this down here. I wanna go back into here. Uh
let's see which one do I want? I want this
one and then I want that one. Okay, So Lucas
Soil Stadium, the big brick building. Uh. Photo on the
left was when we were coming into Indianapolis on a
Friday after this quote flight from Hell, which I didn't
think it was the Flight from Hell. I thought it
(17:58):
was a pretty enjoyable flight. There was some turbulence and
then the flight attendant fell when there was no you know,
rattling of the plane. So I think she was overreacting
to the whole thing. And then you know, you kind
of feel it and all that stuffy was having a
fun time.
Speaker 2 (18:11):
Who coined it the flight from Hell?
Speaker 1 (18:13):
Oh, my fiance, Alison.
Speaker 2 (18:16):
I was really thinking that maybe the flight attendant did,
which would be an insane thing for a flight attendant
to say, very good.
Speaker 1 (18:25):
You know, after everything that's gone on, you know, with
planes and all that stuff last week. So yes, it
was coined the Flight from Hell. Even after spending forty
bucks in an airport for two beverages. Yeah, a little excessive.
Speaker 2 (18:38):
That's the receipt from Hell.
Speaker 1 (18:39):
We're there, it is the receipt from Hell. But hey,
Jason spent like sixty bucks on two drinks. So but yeah,
So Lucas Oil Stadium here seats just over sixty thousand people.
Hosted the very first Royal Rumble, which is my first
event flying out to go to any of these events.
(19:00):
Only went driving to Philadelphia, Newark or went up to
MSG for these events. So this is my first time
going out there. Building doesn't look that big until you
get right underneath it in the second photo and you're like, damn,
that's a pretty big photo. So get in there. In
the coin term, the uber the Lift from Hell, which
was another thing, which is a whole nother thing I
(19:20):
can describe, but I'll describe it off camera. Trying to
get into the stadium. I give it a solid four
point seven. Trying to get in. There was no like
lines or whatever. It was just a big cluster fuck
of people trying to just get in at the same time.
Got there, you know, right as the gates opened up
at the first time. So that was what is this
out of ten or out of five out of ten? Oh, so,
(19:44):
trying to get into the stadium was a big cluster fuck,
trying to manage through no straight lines, and Colton joins
at the greatest time of me explaining this trip go
Devil's uh and yeah, trying to just merge in, trying
to get in here all the same time. So this
was a very very four point seven out of ten experience. Yeah,
(20:06):
but then you walk inside. Pat McAfee's right there, he's
talking on the pre show all that stuff, YadA YadA, YadA.
I gotta talk about the food and the bevies. Gotta
talk about this bad boy, this bad John, this nice
big old aluminum cup. Yeah is it?
Speaker 2 (20:23):
Is it the same?
Speaker 1 (20:25):
Yes, it's the same cup. It's from the same company. Yep,
from Ball the aluminum cup. This thing right here. Fourteen
bucks for a beverage. It was pretty good, although it
was a Micheli bultro. Is either that or bud light,
so I was like, okay, it's either pale or extra pale.
So yeah, had a pizza pretty good this time was sliced.
(20:45):
Uh yeah, I give it. I give it about you know,
a seven point four out of ten from my experience there,
which is pretty good. And then you go when you
experience it all, you go inside here seventy thousand people
packed into the Lucas Oil Stadium. Unfortunately, the AFC finalist
banner was not above me. Andrew lux semhow obtained it
and signed it inside Barstool's headquarters, so it was a
(21:08):
little upset about that. But the crowd and all that stuff,
I can't rate an NFL crowd because this wasn't an
NFL thing. This was a wrestling thing, and being the
Royal Rumble a big four pay per view. I really
give it. I give this a top three event that
I have been to. I rate it up there with
Summer Stamp twenty seventeen in Brooklyn, and they can tell
you the most. If the product sucks, it sucks, and
(21:30):
then Rustlemania forty nine one in Philadelphia. I'll rate it
number three on my list. Crowd was great, it was exciting.
I do have videos I could show you. I show
Speed getting demolished, which is my favorite video of all time.
I love that video to the end of life. Yeah,
I'll just put that video on this is That was
(22:34):
my favorite thing in the entire trip, is just seeing
Speed getting demolished. Colon's just he doesn't want any more
of this stuff. He wants me to continue roll on
with the show.
Speaker 5 (22:45):
No, hey, man, I want to ask how your trip was.
I could care less about the wrestling part of all
of it, but it seems like you had a great time,
which is cool. Again, people love it, man. I used
to be into it when I was younger, and I
don't know why, but as soon as I found out
it was fake, I was like, Oh, what the hell
am I watching this for? And then that was that again.
(23:06):
I see a bunch of adults still watching it and
into it. People love wrestling for a reason. It's just
not for me. Ever since I found out it wasn't
like real wrestling, even though they are getting hurt, Like
I mean, I saw the video Kevin, that one's going
through the light, like, bro, that that's up. Still Art's
like out like again, you can't fix that stuff, jumping
off the steel cages at that high like it's not fake.
(23:30):
You can't fake that stuff. But yeah, I just not
not for me. I don't know why. But ever since
I found that out, I was like, what the hell
am I watching this for? So people love it that
I'm gold There had to good time man, went took
a blast.
Speaker 1 (23:45):
Went to this place called Foga to chow Friday night.
One of the best steakhouses I have been to, a
sixty three dollars thing, and it's all you can eat.
They'll come around with pecanya top, surloin garlic wrap, surloin
bacon rap, surloin bacon rap and garlic, chicken, pork sausage,
all that stuff. They just like assault you. They're like, oh, hey,
(24:05):
you want this, then you slice it. You get to
give you little tongs like pull it off as they're
slicing it, you put on your plate, you eat it
a whole like salad bar with like fruits and fish
all that stuff, soups and salads. That was really good.
And then I went to a B Dubs there and
it was pretty ghetto, so you know, that was the
least favorite part of the trip. But I did see
(24:26):
bush light on tap, which you know you're not in
New Jersey. If you see bush light on tap, you
don't really see that stuff around here. I had a
great time though. The lift from hell, uh, you know,
I survived. And then the walk back it wasn't that bad.
We stayed right by the circle, so it was like
a fifteen minute walk, but you're walking with like thirty
thousand other people just back to your hotel, so it's
(24:49):
it was an easy walk to say the least. So
getting out was a lot better than getting in. But
our seats were also like right there the window, like
you know, doors are right there, you know you can
get up, walk out all that stuff. Oh yeah, I
had a great time. Obviously, have to go back for football.
I did talk to this guy next to me. He
has cold season tickets he's been a season ticket holder
(25:11):
since twenty sixteen. And he told me Andrew and Anthony Richardson,
he's not He's not the answer. Gotta get rid of him,
he said, ax him, get him out.
Speaker 4 (25:21):
He's not the guy.
Speaker 5 (25:24):
Not that guy though.
Speaker 1 (25:26):
But he also told me I have to come back
for the ndy five hundredraft to go for all the
parties and all that stuff they have in the inner thing.
He goes, Listen, you'll never have to buy a beer.
If you go there, pay forty bucks. You go in
the middle there, you'll always have a beer in your
hand no matter what. He goes, it's a great people
watching he says, it's a great people watching experience race
who really cares the people watching ten out of ten?
(25:47):
And he also told me I have to go to
this told me, I got to go to the state go.
Speaker 2 (25:52):
To a NASCAR race because I think they're probably.
Speaker 1 (25:57):
What's the closest one.
Speaker 5 (25:58):
Delaware over yeah, or Cocon's or Dover one of this year.
Speaker 1 (26:03):
Yeah, but yeah. He told me to go to Saint Elmo's,
which is a steakhouse there, and he says it's the
best shrimp cocktail in the country. It's rated that high
and I have to try it. But he told me
I have to come back for a Colts game because
the tickets are fairly priced.
Speaker 3 (26:18):
That that place is in Heart is in the Giants
hard knocks. They all hide it during the combine. Yeah,
apparently it lights your hair on fire.
Speaker 1 (26:29):
Spicy never had a shrim cocktail, so that's gonna be
my first time. But yeah, ten out of ten trip,
I'll go again. If everything's a walking distance, obviously, it's
a lot better than having to rent a car and
all that stuff. They wanted to charge one hundred and
fifty bucks to park at the stadium for that event,
and then or our hotel was they were charging sixty
(26:52):
bucks to park. And it's like, thank god, I don't
have a car. I could just walk there. I'll just
pay the lift, you know, seventy bucks for to and
from the airport. Like I'm okay with that altogether. So
couldn't beat it.
Speaker 5 (27:05):
Couldn't be that's the problem. Even like again, like, oh,
don't drink and drive. The problem is like and I
got it, like Lift and Uber and all these places
gotta make money. But like this is why he's so
sadly have people drinking and driving because like it's I
got it. You should be responsible if you're going out,
you should know like to have a limit and like, no,
you're gonna spend that money on the lift or uber
but man, they they you might as well chop your
(27:29):
arm in your leg off because boy oh boy, that's
what they're charging you to go.
Speaker 2 (27:33):
So it's especially on like a high demand, high traffic moment,
that's crazy expensive.
Speaker 1 (27:43):
Yeah, a little injury round up here. So we got
LANDA Dickerson who says, quote, I will get stretchered off
the field if it relies on me, uh for the
Super Bowl despite having a knee injury that he had
during the NFC Championship game. He's gonna battle through it.
And then the scent of it's not really known, but
that's all we got for that. Then Eagles, uh dealing.
(28:04):
Carter missed media availability due to an illness, but we'll
learn more on his participation status for practice today later on.
So only two injuries we have. And then the Chiefs.
Obviously there's nothing about the Chiefs. So yeah, that's it.
That's it for the injuries. Let's talk about everyone's favorite
(28:25):
thing here, I talk I ask it every every every season,
every season, this episode, I ask it every time, I
ask it every time here, How does the field to
see your team win a championship at Tannati, a super Bowl,
a Stanley, an NBA championship, championship, the NBA Championship.
Speaker 5 (28:47):
It was great. It was during COVID, so everyone called
it a fake championship, but I knew it. In title, yeah,
Mickey Mass title, kiss my rear end, that's a legitimate title.
It was great. I was a toddler when Lord Stanley
came back to Jersey, so I can't really give you
any information on that Yankees. I was also a youngin
(29:10):
when they won, so again, couldn't give you anything on that.
Steelers was a range of emotions against Arizona and that
super Bowl. There's nothing like it. I can't wait to
kind of enjoy one as an adult now whenever that
time comes. Sadly it's not anytime soons with this dysfunctional franchise,
but I can't wait for that moment celebrate with my
(29:32):
dad whenever it does come, and I can enjoy it
a little more as an adult in the meaning and
just eat, sleep, breathe football. I am now compared to
I was like a young kid even though all I
did was, you know, watch sports. But yeah, there's nothing
like it. The most recent one here is the granddaddy
of them all is one Jake. So in my double
(29:53):
dip here so you can kiss my ass Jake, but
no smirk, nothing. This is a man that is locked
in on football week. Holy cow. See, by the way,
I don't know if it's just me, Jake, it might
feel a different for you, but like Will and Dom
has this week felt like super Bowl Week to you guys,
(30:14):
For me, it's enough. Yeah, for me, it's a no,
I don't know again, Jake, like being an Eagles fan,
like going on like your social media like it's Eagles
like for me, I go on social media and steers
stuff like I couldn't imagine this being super Bowl week
with the steeers and like I'd be in Gold like
as a casual. I feel like I don't again, it
could because of the big NBA trades that have like
kind of taken over the news. But like I totally
(30:38):
forgot like that this we used to super Bowl at times.
Speaker 3 (30:42):
I usually don't even pay attention to it anyway, Like
Dom and I were talking about earlier. Like the only
thing I remember from like even seeing on a clip
or watching from the from Super Bowl fifty two was
the alshon Jeffrey just like torturing them, mostly because that's
exactly how I feel about the week.
Speaker 4 (31:00):
It's like, this is ridiculous. They don't need to do this,
but I I just I don't.
Speaker 3 (31:06):
I don't I one I have, I don't normally care,
but to it also does feel like it's not as
blown up as it normally is.
Speaker 4 (31:17):
But I guess I'll say mine. I think Tom's looking
up something. Yeah, I like that.
Speaker 3 (31:23):
The two best sports moments was getting to see the
Rose Bowl in person. You know, Penn State, When's When's
the Rose Bowl? But nothing will I don't anything will
compare until the next actual championship from when we want
the Super Bowl versus the Patriots. Like not a shame
(31:45):
to say I cried, like when I when Tom Brady
got tripsacked. I was jumping up and down, knees to
chest as a grown man.
Speaker 4 (31:54):
Zero shame.
Speaker 3 (31:56):
It's it's especially I got to experience that one with
my dad and I a bunch of older people who
really appreciated it more of after all the years of
like not winning a super Bowl and all the heartbreak,
and then you got to where we let a deal
with all the Giants fans who you know, how many
rings you got, blah blah blah, even though they lose
every game to us, but they still get good to
(32:17):
say that, And it was a nice feeling, like you've
have to, you know, give them the finger and say, shut.
Speaker 1 (32:24):
Up, what about you, dom I've seen what you've You've
seen what only one championship. I think I know where
it's going here.
Speaker 2 (32:39):
But what what do you think you know?
Speaker 1 (32:43):
I think I know. I think I think I know.
Your face is glowing right, I already know where it's going.
I know where it's going. I know where it's going here.
Speaker 2 (32:54):
Give me. It took me a while to find this.
I want you to know that this didn't it took me.
Like all of Jake's talking, I got my one of
my championship moments hijacked for me.
Speaker 1 (33:20):
Uh, here we go, baby, here we go.
Speaker 2 (33:24):
I don't know how loud this is gonna play.
Speaker 1 (33:28):
Loud? Oh no, it's muted. You have to unmute it.
Speaker 2 (33:32):
Right, It's gonna play through me and Jake as well.
Speaker 1 (33:35):
Okay, so I'm gonna just.
Speaker 2 (33:39):
But uh, Colton, I don't know, do you does Colton?
Speaker 1 (33:43):
Colton? Do you know about.
Speaker 5 (33:46):
I feel like I remember seeing videos of this. Isn't
there like a picture of you guys?
Speaker 2 (33:51):
No, no, so much better than that. This is when
the twenty teen Washington Capitals won the Stanley Cup and
me being a Capital's fan, this is a big deal,
you know. I mean, like you can see I have
a championship parade thing right there. I have been newspaper.
I have the newspaper from Washington, d C. When they won.
(34:14):
I actually brought this home with me so like unframed it.
But because I went to the parade, well went as well.
And uh and you know we had a great spot
by the way on this parade.
Speaker 1 (34:30):
Yeah, we get out, we get out of the train
station and they're like, well, where do you want to say?
And I just stop in the middle of a crosswalk
and they just put a bear can in front of me.
So we were just like first people there.
Speaker 2 (34:39):
Yeah, it was awesome. And uh so then news station
came around and uh, this is this is what I
have to remember the moment by.
Speaker 1 (34:50):
You gotta you gotta unmute it. I don't hear it
at all.
Speaker 2 (34:54):
That one second.
Speaker 5 (34:56):
Oh my goodness, yeah, it might be so loud. I
don't know.
Speaker 1 (35:05):
How much it means like the world to me to
see them win the cup. It really does. But well,
I mean, like you don't know what twenty or so
like it means to me, Like you meant you meet
the former world champions, and now you're all the way
you yourself.
Speaker 5 (35:23):
That's about the parade. Such an asshole, he's such broad,
this guy Will here.
Speaker 2 (35:34):
I am standing right next to him the whole time.
By the way I am. They won't show me. I
am standing him right like shoulder to shoulder on the
other side of him, to the point where one time
when he was like fumbling over his words, he's like,
they haven't won in like I twenty years, twenty years,
and so it's just like that's my moment.
Speaker 5 (35:55):
You're you're way too nice. I would have thrown him
right under the bus. He had a capital sman, I'm
the real Capitals fan. He's not. You're way too nice.
I would like, I was hoping I come to me,
and I'm like.
Speaker 1 (36:09):
No.
Speaker 5 (36:09):
I would have thrown Will's corny ass underneath the freaking
bus and ran him over, backed it up, went back
over again. Nah, I would have thrown him under the bus.
He's such a little cheater. This guy picks every team
under the sun, Like I just weight man. I know
he was itching for the Commanders to win the make
it to the Super Bowl. I know he was itching
for it. Same thing with the La Rams. He was
(36:30):
just itching for it.
Speaker 2 (36:30):
Well, I was.
Speaker 1 (36:31):
I was talking about it two weeks ago. I was like,
come on, it's it was almost a Billy Bowl like
Dom even Proclinta as the Billy Bowl.
Speaker 2 (36:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (36:38):
And ever since he decided he wants to be a
Flyers fan, we've been awful. Ever since he decided, he's
like a curse.
Speaker 5 (36:45):
Now he's secretly happy though capitals are first place. He's
secretly happy right now. Don't worry. That's why he's like.
That's why he's all good right now.
Speaker 1 (36:54):
Yeah, all I have is just let's do this. Yeah.
Two Fantasy Championship rings, so all I got my back back.
Speaker 5 (37:01):
He's on ov watch. Don't don't let employ. He's on
ov watch.
Speaker 1 (37:07):
Eagles one, Eagles one. I got. It's like, so far
is looking one? There we go? Uh, come on, you
wanna you wanna correct no, I doesn't want to correct. Yeah,
that's all I have for championships. Maybe I'll bring Arizona
State championship into my dynasty if the game's ever played.
(37:27):
Who knows, not throwing trade at anyone here, just gotta
play C J. Smith on there we go. All right,
but let's talk about some other stuff from super Bowl
week here? What is uh your favorite moment? Obviously we're
not watching five hours of media coverage for the super
Bowl Opening night, but there is a lot of clips
that have come up after it. Uh, what is your
(37:49):
favorite moment from super Bowl Opening Night that you got
to see probably on social media, not uh not watching
the broadcast.
Speaker 5 (37:59):
I mean, you're talking issue nothing at all. Nothing is
my favorite moment.
Speaker 2 (38:03):
For me.
Speaker 5 (38:04):
It's Luca Daunton stuff and where it. We're an NFL podcast,
so I am going to avoid that. But yeah, I've
enjoyed the Laker nonsense from all this stuff. So yeah, no,
nothing for a Super Bowl week for me, coach.
Speaker 4 (38:15):
I haven't watched one second of this year.
Speaker 2 (38:17):
Yeah I've really, I've seen clip but none of them
were that enjoy Like the Jameis Winston thing doesn't do
it for me, So I really didn't care that much
about that.
Speaker 3 (38:26):
Like, like I've watched like the normal shows I've watched
all year that happened to be down in the radio
row whatever it's called. But like I haven't like the
player interviews. The only one I've actually even seen in
a clip is Travis Kelsey losing his mind. They're on
a tantrum.
Speaker 5 (38:46):
Yes, he belongs in the bathroom.
Speaker 3 (38:52):
No that, Like I already said that, the best one
ever is Alshon Jeffery is bodying that or asking dumb questions.
Speaker 4 (38:59):
It's like how weather affected we play a dome?
Speaker 2 (39:03):
That's right, Yeah, I didn't see incredible that.
Speaker 5 (39:07):
It's incredible that they let all these idiots down there.
Speaker 3 (39:09):
Actually, no, I saw one thing one from this. It's
actually hilarious. There's a story someone went up to Brandon
Man the punter confuse and asked him wish Isaiah picheckout
because he was confused because it was number ten. It
was a wrong team and not even close the same position.
Speaker 4 (39:27):
Nice.
Speaker 1 (39:30):
I should see if I can get a media pass
and just go in there. I'll interview all these guys.
I'll be a better Guermo than the actual Guermo.
Speaker 2 (39:37):
Oh people, definitely fake passesn't getting there.
Speaker 3 (39:40):
I swear that they got apparently they got a fatal
recognition prap, like, oh.
Speaker 5 (39:45):
No, they're legit. It's just they give it to everybody.
So you probably could get if you want, I'll.
Speaker 1 (39:50):
Fly down there. I'll get us some interviews. Well, I
gotta say, Jamis Winston having w cookies in his pocket
and like throwing it at everyone was pretty funny. And yeah,
it's like, I don't drop anything, and he totally dropped
the cookie and it just broke nice.
Speaker 2 (40:06):
That's rough. That's a rough luck, man.
Speaker 1 (40:10):
So yeah, that was pretty funny. And then everyone, oh, hey,
how do you eat W's? And then you know he's
just like, get the W's going on? All right, I'll
skip forward here. So we are an NFL podcast. But
there was a monumental trade that happened late Saturday night
early Sunday morning, depending on where your time zone was,
with Luka, Doncic, Anthony Davis and then whatever scraps were
(40:32):
sent to the Utah Jazz and NFL terms. What would
be the comparison of Luca going to a team and
Anthony Davis going to another team and then you know,
the third team just no on some kneecaps or whatever.
Speaker 5 (40:51):
I guess trading Joe Burrow for TJ Watt I think
I already saw that analogy like that's probably the best
way to describe it. TJ is a very good player,
just like Anthony Davis is a very good player. But
you're trading a transcendent talent in one of the main
positions in the sport for a position that's not really
(41:15):
as important. Again, ed rushers are important to like, same thing,
like a center in a rim, detecting big in the NBA. Yeah. Oh,
Also the age difference.
Speaker 1 (41:26):
Yes, thirty one for ad in twenty five for Luca. Oh,
he's only twenty five and he's on his third team now.
Speaker 5 (41:40):
I hate you. Oh my gosh, he's not. He's on
his second team. Shut up.
Speaker 1 (41:44):
He was Atlanta Hawk though, Okay, he went from a
Hawk to a Maverick or whatever it is, just like
Russell Wilson, he went from a Hawk to a Steeler.
Speaker 5 (41:58):
I'm so glad we're almost done for the year.
Speaker 4 (42:02):
Oh, oh my god.
Speaker 1 (42:10):
Since we're almost done, let's kind of recap here. What
was everyone's number one moment from the show that expanded
uh twenty eight weeks what there's eighteen regular season games,
wild Card, Divisional round, Conference, Pro Bowl, this show, so
another five So that's twenty three and then we add
another seven weeks. Damn almost thirty shows.
Speaker 5 (42:37):
Yeah, mine's easy. Mine's always the Draft show. Me flipping
out for the second year in a row over in
Atlanta draft pick which made no sense again with Michael
Pennix Junior. Remember exactly what my reaction was, Easily the
Draft show.
Speaker 1 (42:57):
Atlanta's run by morons. Oh my god, the Draft.
Speaker 2 (43:02):
Show is great.
Speaker 5 (43:03):
They're idiots. Man, Oh my again, can't wait for next
year's draft show. And I'm mind boggled again with the
bland of doing something stupid in the first round teams.
This origin of to taking smart draft picks in the
first round.
Speaker 2 (43:16):
I would say mine is probably the moment that people
started asking us questions in fantasy that one week Will
and then like we were like, oh, we have engagement now,
and then we created the fantasy things and then like
me and Will at times spent two full hours just answering,
(43:37):
doing nothing other than answering people, and that was it.
So I mean, like that was cool to get the
engagement finally, like live engagement with questions and stuff is
pretty awesome. And that was a very big change of
pace for us obviously, So that was probably one of
the cooler things, I think.
Speaker 1 (43:56):
And then we had this guy who was asking, oh,
do I start George Pickens or Cherry mcclaury in week eighteen.
I said, Tarry McLaurin, it's not a question, and he
goes why. I'm like, if you start George Pickens, you're
an absolute idiot. And he goes, why again, what do
you mean why, I've already told you it. Terry mclaurin's
a way better receiver. He's going again, like, look at it.
Come on, h exactly, that's exactly what that should be. Okay.
(44:20):
I should have just blew it up and been like, okay,
it's somebody say he's back.
Speaker 4 (44:28):
We get to use it again, Josh for Danniels.
Speaker 1 (44:32):
Back in the league, Baby back in the league. Jake,
what's your number one moment from what twenty nine weeks
of agonizing football talk?
Speaker 4 (44:43):
I honestly have no idea. It's honestly, it's probably all
the times I get up in the batroom like just
all this just it's just the best thing. It's it
makes my whole week.
Speaker 2 (44:55):
I enjoyed the Willisms.
Speaker 4 (44:57):
The Willisms are pretty great.
Speaker 2 (44:59):
I always Joe the Willisms like that, especially when he
started really doing the the regular season picks and like
doing all the the traffic routes from one spot to
the other and all that stuff. I was I was
enjoying that because I don't think out of the four
of us, I don't know if the three the other
three of us could do that. So I do give
(45:19):
him credit for that. That was impressive.
Speaker 1 (45:23):
And as also put in the comments the Billy Bowl,
what could have been? It was right there, damn it,
it was right there. Uh geez, I don't even know
what my number one moment would be outside of Colon
ol Colton for the wallap pizza. That that was pretty
high lady. So that that that's up there. Yeah, I don't.
(45:46):
I don't know what else my number one moment would be.
Speaker 2 (45:48):
I'm sorry, I will say are I did a runner
up for me? Is our an the uh NFC South
like preview?
Speaker 1 (46:04):
Oh yeah, we ghastly Cotland and the pick and the falcons.
Speaker 4 (46:06):
Yeah, honestly some of the cells are the rants for
the cells.
Speaker 2 (46:10):
Yeah, that's fair.
Speaker 4 (46:11):
They're pretty good.
Speaker 1 (46:13):
The weather the weather.
Speaker 2 (46:15):
Well selling the weather like four times.
Speaker 5 (46:17):
Yeah, what was amazing for that? The ultimate jinks because
guess what we're getting like ten inches of snow next week.
Speaker 1 (46:23):
There we go. I'm so excited, snow digg not even
buying the weather. I'm buying the weather. Just give a
call intern Joe. He'll make sure that snow turns in
the rain instantly. The biggest jinks out there. But yeah,
I gotta ask. I know we've been talking about this
(46:44):
for a last I don't know, twenty three weeks. There
wasn't I don't know if you want to put the
Progate Bowl game up here or if there was another
game that caught your eye. What from this weekend may
have caught your eye from this past weekend across all sports,
not just the Pro Bow.
Speaker 5 (47:01):
Me watching Michigan win in person against Rookers. That was
my game of the week. And this question shouldn't have
been asked. Uh, well, you're terrible.
Speaker 1 (47:10):
Hey go Maryland.
Speaker 4 (47:13):
Penn State getting shut out three straight games. That's pretty awesome.
Speaker 1 (47:17):
I love it.
Speaker 4 (47:18):
Thanks Will still Mew.
Speaker 2 (47:20):
You know my top games were I took a Rutgers
class last week from Tuesday to Friday on Zoom eight
hours a day. It's a long class. Okay. I played
so much NC double A during that class. I'm not
(47:42):
like I played, probably played like a solid probably like
I might have gotten through like ten games of NZ
double A football during that class over those four days.
So you know what, I'm gonna get an idea on
the exam. So I'm just saying did not reflect me
slacking whatsoever. Okay, just putting that out there.
Speaker 1 (48:04):
He just had the good playbook.
Speaker 2 (48:06):
Yeah, and I was figuring out my playbook and everything,
and you know, and just so I would say those games,
those games got me through those eight hours. So those
were my Those are my top picks of games.
Speaker 1 (48:21):
Yeah, I didn't watch any games this weekend.
Speaker 2 (48:23):
You know what.
Speaker 1 (48:23):
The Men's Royal Rumble. That's what I'm gonna put my
top game of the week.
Speaker 2 (48:26):
Okay, it's sports adjacent. It's perfect.
Speaker 1 (48:30):
If you say his name, he appeared and Joe Hendry
did appear and it made my day. And then also
John Cena coming out and then it will see him punk.
You see him, dude. They just played a song. It's
like God coming to the ring. He just you know,
the light just shines down the aisle and just goes
all the way to the ring. All right, and here
(48:51):
we go one final time in the regular season. Here, buy,
sell and hold ahead of the super Bowl. Okay, ahead
of the super Bowl. Obviously there could be some other
stuff there. You gotta continue it one final time, one
final time. Here. What are we looking at in a
buy category? Obviously we said last week's things could change
(49:13):
between Wednesday to Wednesday, and.
Speaker 5 (49:14):
You know, things did change. I am buying Los Angeles
Lakers and Rob Polinka or Rob Low, however you want
to call him, because he looks just like Rob Low.
I'm buying Los Angeles Lakers. I know wrong, Sport, don't care.
I don't even notice your rule was playing this week,
Luca Magic, Bye, bye bye.
Speaker 3 (49:38):
I'm gonna buy on Brandon Graham playing. Remember what I
did last week? I appreciate Yah, Brandon Grahams one hundred
percent playing.
Speaker 2 (49:49):
I'm gonna do my annual cell of Roger Goodell. Oh
what we doing? Buys?
Speaker 1 (49:55):
Yeah, let's go in order. We're gonna do buys.
Speaker 2 (49:58):
S excited to say this. I don't know, man, I
don't super Bowl food. I'm buying what I eat there
in the super Bowl. It's always a great time.
Speaker 4 (50:13):
I'm buying Wills, also buying Will's US.
Speaker 2 (50:18):
I am buying Will's Buffalo Wild Wings account rewards account.
That's what I'm buying every year.
Speaker 1 (50:28):
I'm buying into Kanya. That is a really good steak.
And then speaking of b dubs, it's a whole free
list right there. That's all that's right there. It makes
me so happy. And then what about cells where we
want to go on for cells? Here, domm you go first,
it's your annual cell Go ahead.
Speaker 2 (50:45):
Okay, I'm gonna sell the annual conversation Roger Goodell has
about the refereeing, where he says absurd things like I
have never seen better reffing in this league every year
where it's now we know, for your the NFL is
gonna do the wrong thing and continue with these rent
to ref union bull crap where they could just be
(51:08):
hiring their own refs and doing all the right things.
But of course we will not. So annually when Rogers
says absurd things like that, that's what I'm selling because
now is the only time he comments on it, and
it's always some absurd comment that he has that zero grief.
Speaker 4 (51:25):
It's always the meme of this is fine.
Speaker 2 (51:28):
Yeah, pretty much. So that's what I'm selling.
Speaker 4 (51:35):
Colton. You want to go or I got mine.
Speaker 5 (51:38):
I'm gonna keep it all on the same topic here,
I'm selling Nigo Williams and the Dallas Mavericks. What are
you doing trading a twenty five year old superstar. I
know I'm on the wrong sport for the week, Fellas
and the biggest game of them all this week. Shame
on me, that's fine. Shame on the NFL for having
no story line and having the same one over and
over that I could care less about. Yeah, Dallas Mavericks,
(51:59):
what are you doing? Here's my self.
Speaker 4 (52:06):
I was gonna sell the Pro Bowl, but it's just
too easy. It's just too easy.
Speaker 1 (52:10):
Well, hanging fruit, it's too low one.
Speaker 3 (52:14):
Now I'm selling coltand because I doesn't know what show
we're on, I'm gonna sell the MLB firing Pat Hoague
for alleged gambling. How can he be fixing games? If
he's calling literal perfect games, it's statistically possible. Yet he's
like a machine, so it makes total sense. The one
(52:36):
Jil Hernandez three or an umpire in all of sports
is actually good and like that is perfect. Every time
and he's gone. He's just too good.
Speaker 1 (52:47):
M uh my cell is justin Tucker. I don't really
want to talk about it. And let's go into holds here.
What about holds.
Speaker 5 (52:59):
I'm holding onto my fantasy name for next year of
Rubin Tuck. That is, I'm holding onto that name for
next year. No, we'll stay on football for once. Out
of old mind. It took me two segments three hours
for Super Bowl week. I should do something football. I'm
going to hold on to Patrick Mahomes winning another Super Bowl. Yeah,
(53:22):
just have a weird feeling he's gonna do it again.
And then Travis Kelsey's back because they go.
Speaker 2 (53:27):
For for I just.
Speaker 5 (53:31):
Why who let these morons back in the game again?
Can Josh Allen a Company get over the hump? Please?
Holy cow, this is awful. Holding on Kansas City winning
another Super Bowl.
Speaker 2 (53:48):
I'm gonna hold on. I think that this is going
to be a bottom halftime performance. It's been scrutinized since
it got announced, and.
Speaker 1 (54:01):
I just hope it's fifteen minutes of him calling out Drake.
Speaker 2 (54:04):
It's probably gonna be that, and I really don't care
because we've been hearing it for way long. So like
I'm holding on it being a very forgettable halftime performance.
Speaker 4 (54:20):
I'm holding on that the idea of the Australia game.
I think it's gonna.
Speaker 1 (54:28):
They have to a spider outbreak out of Team Hotel.
I can't wait for that headpline one.
Speaker 2 (54:33):
Yeah, Kangaroo's still in the field.
Speaker 1 (54:40):
Steve Irwin's son is trying to wrangle corral the kangaroos.
That would be a cool halftime performance. It's like, you know,
he has a whole like rope and he can like
corral them all. You know, I'm showing.
Speaker 2 (54:54):
Bindy's gonna be there freaking They're gonna do a whole thing.
It's gonna be a thing. It might be, could be cool.
Speaker 1 (54:59):
It's gonna be thing.
Speaker 2 (55:00):
Could be cool, but probably won't because of course it's
definitely That's a good hold, honestly, because who knows had.
Speaker 3 (55:07):
They they were walking this real narrow path the where
it's like gonna be okay, but otherwise it's gonna be
a shit show, way worse than the Brazil game was.
Speaker 1 (55:19):
Yeah, in my hold, I'm going to hold on the
Chiefs that this could be the third time in a row.
That's my final hold. And there we have it a
whole bunch of weeks. Middle of July, ninety degrees now
down to thirty degrees in a wind chill outside as
low as the single digits, as high as probably one
(55:40):
hundred degrees during this entire time, our last picks of
the season. Unfortunately, I actually forgot the time and I
was playing too much Rocket League before we started the show,
so I never made the lower third graphic.
Speaker 5 (55:54):
Thank s, folks, I'm still running champ. I love it,
Thank you, appreciate you.
Speaker 1 (55:58):
So, yes, we are down to our Super Bowl picks.
Let me get this Google doc up here? Where is it?
There we go, and it goes as follows. I have
fifteen in this playoffs, damas thirteen, Jake has eleven, and
Colon you have nine. And here we go our picks,
(56:20):
followed by the MVP and then the score prediction. So
so yeah, here we go. Colon, you're the only one
that has not had their picks in here yet, So.
Speaker 5 (56:33):
Yeah, I'm terrible. I didn't. I totally forgot. I told
you bad week for the NFL, and I don't know
your big games this week until Sunday when I wake up, like,
oh yeah, super Bowl today, I think Kansas City wins again.
I think they win thirty five to thirty two. Kansas
City win. Super Bowl MVP goes to one the only
(56:56):
America's favorite, Patrick mahomes Well, hanging fruit. That's fine, big
pickle Ah, Yeah, Chiefs win. Andy Reid's a genius and
uh that's a wrap on the season.
Speaker 1 (57:10):
It's good to domb here. Dom good on the board.
Speaker 2 (57:14):
I went Philly. I think factor is Saquon. I think
it's different than any other year. That's really it for me,
is the Saquon thing. All playoffs haven't been stopped like consistency.
We talked about it last week. That's been the biggest
part is the consistency from Saquon. That's that's been the
(57:36):
biggest game changer across the every Eagles game matchup havn't
playoffs so far. I think everyone can agree he's been
the best performer in playoffs and it's not close across
the board. So that's just it. That's a factor. So
I'm going Eagles and then a final score of thirty
four to twenty eight.
Speaker 1 (58:00):
Let's go to Jake.
Speaker 2 (58:00):
Now do I even have to say.
Speaker 1 (58:04):
Is that like by God, it's the Commanders, the Billy
Bowl could happen.
Speaker 2 (58:10):
It's the Rams.
Speaker 3 (58:13):
Yeah, I think, well, Will hasn't done his pick, but
we're gonna for the third time this playoffs crush Will's hopes.
Speaker 4 (58:22):
And the Eagles win their second Super Bowl.
Speaker 3 (58:26):
On the back of Saquonkley's MVP because if we if
we're gonna win, we're gonna need him to have a
you know, a saque Barkley game where he you may,
I may not need to get that one hundred yards
that they Spagnolo, but he needs to do enough to
burn clock, keep the offense off, Chiefs offense off the field,
(58:47):
and just be efficient and score.
Speaker 4 (58:51):
And uh, something's telling me about twenty eight twenty.
Speaker 3 (58:59):
Just over one score really with a two point conversion
and the defense does its job.
Speaker 1 (59:10):
My pick is the Chiefs MVP is Mahomes instead of
twenty eight twenty four. Is what a generic score is.
I went thirty one to twenty seven on this one.
So that is my pick there for the Super Bowl,
(59:31):
And gentlemen, it is came. It is when this dire
season starting from the middle of July all the way

Ladies and gentlemen, Boys and girls, Welcome back to another
installment of For the Fan, Episode number one fifty five.
I am well, we got domind Jake, and we got
my golf clubs in the background that I coincidentally forgot
to put back in my car. But gentlemen, hello, you
believe it. I could show my box of skates and
golf shoes and all that other stuff I got in
(00:23):
the corner over here. Yeah that's over there. But yes,
one final episode left of the regular Well, our regular
season is uh now it's here, and uh yeah. It's
one of the sadder parts of the season, going through
just about twenty nine weeks of talking football and here
we are. It's the end.
Speaker 2 (00:47):
It's says that long, but it is the end.
Speaker 1 (00:49):
It is sad. And you know what, I forgot to
make that lower third graphic today. I knew I forgot something.
Forgot to make that lower third little graphic. So well
it's okay, Yeah, we blew it, We blew it all.
I'll figure that out momentarily. But gentlemen, we're gonna get
into it right now. You're listening to the last part
(01:11):
of our regular season For the Fan. You are listening
to for the fan, and here we go, we have
(01:39):
some news to actually talk about, not just the Super Bowl,
We actually have some news that we can talk about
and the whole ten yards here. So let's talk about
the first one that just dropped actually officially forty one
minutes ago, and the NFL is moving ahead aka the
time zones. Melbourne, Australia to host a regular season game
(01:59):
in twenty twenty is a reported a multi year agreement
between the NFL and Australia. The first team that host
is the Rams, and there is reports that the Eagles
with Jordmia a Lotta the greatest Australian to ever live
beep playing down there in twenty twenty six.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
And let's hear yeah, yeah, I was gonna say, all right,
to ever play a sport in America. Let's just all right,
Steve Irwin is greatest.
Speaker 1 (02:27):
Steve Irwin's the greatest human to ever live. Okay, let's
let's talk about my Alatta, one of the better athletes
from Australia to live in the US. But yes, what
are your guys' thoughts on the NFL? Now it's a
global thing. That's the first time they've been this far
in the time zone since playing preseason games in Japan
in the early two thousands. So yeah, very long time
(02:49):
since they've been this far ahead, at least in the
time zone situation.
Speaker 3 (02:53):
It almost feels like it has to be a week
one game more then like a two week off thing,
like a week zero in college football, it's like sixteen
hours off.
Speaker 2 (03:03):
It's what they do in the NHL. The NHL they
have they have that whatever Finland game or den Mark
or wherever the heck they're playing.
Speaker 1 (03:12):
Did they play a preseason game in Australia like last year,
like two years ago, Nathan Walk, It was like it
was like the Coyotes and the Blue Jackets. It was
like the worst two teams they could possibly send out there,
and they just said, you know what, have fun, here's
a home and home.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
No, it's because then Australian players on it, Nathan Walker.
But they I guess they didn't do it. They get canceled.
Speaker 4 (03:33):
I think I canceled it.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
But us in the NHL they do like a half
a week before the season technically starts, or a week
before the season technically starts, they do the whole event.
Whatever European country that they're doing it, and then they
play two games out there, but they make it. They
make it a week long thing where they practice out there,
(03:56):
they do community events out there, they do a bunch
of stuff preseason game probably again like some of the
teams out there, and then they have two regular season
NHL games, like a week half a week before the
actual regular season starts and North America. But I mean,
like Jake said, I think I think that'd be the
(04:17):
best case. To do it in week would be nuts
to me.
Speaker 4 (04:20):
Yeah, like a week seven absolutely ridiculous.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
Yeah, I don't know if you can do that. You'd
have the team's buyes, but like the.
Speaker 4 (04:30):
End, yeah, almost use both your buys. Make it makes sense?
Speaker 2 (04:35):
So it is. Yeah, I don't know that a week
one would probably make the most amount of sense because
then you have the or not even a week one,
but like a week week zero half. Yeah, if you
like threw it on a Wednesday or a Thursday before
the week one slate, So because that's a bye week
already for the preseason, you didn't need to work it out.
(04:59):
Is there any are there any other logistics here? Well?
Speaker 1 (05:03):
Or is that it all other than the rams are
gonna be the first team to host down there, and
looking ahead to their schedule, it's the Commanders and the Eagles,
the entire NFC West, a NFC South opponent to be determined,
and then the Raiders and the Broncos. Those are That
(05:27):
is the Rams home schedule for twenty twenty six for
what we know of so far. So that's all that
we have there. And then there's the multi year agreement,
which no idea how long that would be, no idea
if it's gonna be like three years, five years, whatever.
But there's already Spain, there's talks to potentially Portugal, you
(05:48):
have Germany already, the UK. I don't know, why don't
we go back to the Rogers Center. Let's play some
football up in Canada again. I missed when the Abills
would play up there at least one game a year.
But that's really all we got right now.
Speaker 2 (06:00):
Basically already do what It's like a twenty minute drive
and they're playing in Canada.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
I don't think you could go straight. You have to
go around the entire lake that's there Ontario.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
That's true.
Speaker 1 (06:12):
Yeah, you can't. Yeah, you have to go one way
or the other. It's probably a twenty minute flight.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
But Chicago too, right, Chicago's that close as well. I
don't know, no sure.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
Now he crossed over the lake where Chicago is, it's
all uh still America, still there. But yeah, we got
news about Australia. Let's talk about some other trade news
that came out Monday. Miles Garrett officially wants out out
of cle to Cleveland. He wants out, has two years
(06:46):
remaining on his deal forty five million dollars. If the
Browns end up getting rid of them, they will eat
thirty six million dollars in space. But Garrett's contract is
not guaranteed anymore. All the guaranteed money's gone. They want
to sign them to a new extension. Your rain defensive
player of the year for at least the next couple
of hours. Uh. Yeah, he wants out of Cleveland. And
then the Rams told Cooper Cup they're actively trying to
(07:08):
trade him. So the end of Cooper Cup. In that
very first draft class from Sean mcvayh the second pick
in his regime was Cooper Cup number sixty nine nice
overall out of Washington. So yeah, what are your guys
thoughts on both of these? One's a big guy who
can make a game wrecking ability on the defensive line
(07:30):
the other guy. Hey, hopefully he could return to that
formu that we once saw in twenty twenty one with
him being a triple Crown winner in receiving.
Speaker 2 (07:41):
I don't know, I think it's kind of obvious by
now that what Jade von Clowney said years ago was
kind of at least partially correct true where it just
feels like the organization and coaching staff kind of does
what they need to do to get Miles Garrett those
(08:03):
stats and like cater to him a little bit, because
I mean, I've said it for years. Any path rusher
that goes to Cleveland, their career dies like every time. Period.
It just happens every time. But who doesn't Miles Garrett
every time? I mean, he's a stut straight up. He'll
be good wherever, But I I don't know.
Speaker 3 (08:26):
He also like kind of hold up the cards so
you kind of dictate where he wants to go.
Speaker 2 (08:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (08:31):
Probably the Browns have come out and said they were
not trading him, so this could be a very long
lasting offseason thing. So this could be the same as
Deebo Samuel we saw a couple of years ago. Branton,
you last offseason, so we could see how long this
ends up going out for the Browns have come out
and said, hey, we're willing to pay you a new contract,
like they're not afraid to give him, you know another
(08:51):
what one hundred and thirty hundred and forty million dollars.
I mean, hey, one of the best defensive ends in
football and quite so. He led the league again this
year and no, he didn't leave. Believe in sack to.
Speaker 3 (09:02):
A second, like Everready said, is like I want to
win games, and you guys aren't gonna do it. So
I don't care what them like. They can throw the
most guaranteed money ever at them.
Speaker 4 (09:11):
Don't think the sign back there.
Speaker 2 (09:12):
Yeah, I think we're kind of passed the money part.
I do think Cleveland's making a mistake by not I'm
gonna get it, Like he's a generational talent of a
pass rusher, like that's what winning defensive player of the
Year is, But like, what are you gonna do, dude?
(09:33):
Like what is Cleveland? I think Cleveland's pretty much cooked
top about this point. Coaching even like everything, I'm really
pretty over Cleveland as an as a football team at
this moment and their chance to maybe turn that in
a direction and like steer the ship in a whole
(09:54):
different direction is probably him. I mean, the return you're
gonna get is Khalil mack Worthy. Whether the Raiders, I think,
with their return is another thing. But the Raider's got
a crap ton of stuff out of that return from
Klo mac Uh. And you're looking at probably a similar
(10:14):
situation for the Brown if they were to trade Miles Garrett.
So I mean, do it. You're making a mistake by
holding on to something that is pointless at this point.
I mean you got to lean into it. Correct Your
situation or organization right now is not in the right place.
(10:36):
You have a lot of issues, you haven't figured a
lot of stuff out. You're not in the best light
with Deshaun Watson. You haven't been since that happened. That
was a huge trade that you guys messed up. There's
a lot wrong in Cleveland, and I do think he's
the key to maybe some correction there. So this just
(10:56):
makes it worse. If you're going to do this whole
thing and make it a whole parade here we are,
I don't know. This just proves that probably nothing's gonna
change for Cleveland and their fans next year.
Speaker 1 (11:11):
I think let's play a little matchmaker here. Where do
you guys think Miles Garrett could go? If the Brown said,
you know what, hey, we're terrible, We're a terrible football organization,
and hey, let's let's get some draft capital, because you know,
we only gave away ten years worth of draft picks
to get the Shan Watson who's played a whopping seventeen
games in the last three years. So in a perfect world,
(11:33):
where do you guys think Miles Garrett could potentially land.
There's obviously one that I think is like blatantly obvious.
I don't know if you guys have any ideas of
maybe this team could go pick them up. This team
could go after him.
Speaker 3 (11:46):
Well monetarily when that makes sense is the Commanders, but
I well, it makes least sense financially is Philadelphia. If
it makes most sense like.
Speaker 4 (12:02):
What he wants and the fit is Philadelphia.
Speaker 2 (12:05):
M then there's like the teams that would want to
like the Cowboys and the two couldn't ever dream of
it monetarily. Then there's the teams like Carolina, who like
doesn't have a pass rusher, but why would he that's
a terrible situation, Like that's not the whole point of
(12:27):
him wanting out is not that. So it's got to
be like a pretty playoff team, but one that has money.
I mean, I don't know, maybe like maybe a Seattle.
Speaker 3 (12:38):
That's why I said Washington, because they got money. Washington's
in the championship game.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
Young, there's future.
Speaker 4 (12:46):
Great in your line. Don't really have that many heage rushers.
Speaker 2 (12:50):
I could see a team like Chicago trying to sell
that place, sell him on, sell them on that trade.
I don't think it would work out that well. I
see him also saying yes because of the youth and
the talent. But like, I don't know, I like a
Seattle where it's like a Okay, you know, it's a
fit I think, and it's playoff fringe at least.
Speaker 1 (13:16):
Or like a.
Speaker 2 (13:19):
Like a Rams. I don't know if they have the
money for that now.
Speaker 1 (13:24):
The Rams are trying to free up some cap space
with Cooper cups, so I don't think that would be
a likelihood of that happening. And they're they're willing to
eat a chunk of his salary just to Soli to
you know, move a trade, make a trade. Happen. Yeah,
and then moving to Cup, where do you guys think
Cup could potentially go as this wide receiver free agency
class isn't strong enough, So you're gonna have guys like
(13:46):
Cooper Cup, like a Garrett Wilson. You're gonna have, you know,
a DK Metcalf, maybe a Tyler Lockett that are like, Okay, hey,
maybe we can facilitate something and you know, make these
guys' values go way bigger than what they are. I
don't know if you're trying to do subliminal messaging down,
but I think you're uh think. I don't know if
(14:07):
you're just playing with your jersey because you're bored.
Speaker 2 (14:09):
Now. I know, Kendrick Bourne's out here like trying to
do the thing Matthew and Ahnod was doing where it's
like come to the Patriots blah blah blah. So he did.
He already tweeted at Cooper Cup. I don't know, and
it's it's got I don't think Cooper Cup goes to
the best situation.
Speaker 4 (14:28):
Written all over him.
Speaker 2 (14:30):
Yeah, something like that where it's like a bottom team.
I think gonna be a team that has all the
money in the world, like the Patriots, like the Titans,
like the I don't even know who else who has
a young quarterback not the best situation, the bottom team
this past year. I think it's gonna have to be
a situation like that. I don't I don't think it's
Cooper Cup going to like a great team, Like it's
(14:52):
like Odell Beckham going to the Rams that were penders,
or like to Baltimore where they were content. I don't
think that's ever gonna happen. I think it's really exclusively
going to be a bottom team. So but he could
keep Peas in a team that substantially improves, maybe, But
(15:14):
I don't know. If it comes to the Patriots, I
think it'll be I'll get yards, he'll do his thing,
But I don't know if it's the best situation for him,
you know.
Speaker 1 (15:22):
So I do have one team I think will make
the most sense, and I think it's the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
I don't think they can resign Godwin. I think he's
gonna be too much and Cup is like that right
money for them where they could stay under the cap.
They could still get another guy. She can move McMillan
into the slot who emerged in the last eight games
(15:42):
this year. I think the Buccaneers could be a very
good suitor for Cooper Cup, and I think Cup could
get back to that range of Hey, I was that
number one receiver in the NFL that one year, you know,
one hundred and forty five catches, just short of Calvin
Johnson's record sixteen touchdowns that year. I think I think
the Bucks could be a very big possibility here for
(16:03):
Cooper Cup and maybe getting the Rams some draft capital
back trying to find their next Pooka Nakua.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
In that offense, I think we see a similar fit
or a similar situation to Adam Thielen, Whereas, like you know,
older dude still has it though, like to be a
receiver in this league that's just going to go somewhere
that's more of a lesser team than where he's at
(16:30):
a lesser situation. But I think Cooper Cup, you know,
has a stronger case. Cooper Cup, like you said, I mean,
Tampa Bay would be so ideal for him, hands down,
it's quarterback that's gotten him the ball before.
Speaker 1 (16:43):
No, no, they didn't play together, couples out with injury Yeah.
Speaker 2 (16:48):
Close, but uh yeah, okay, I mean that'd be sick
for Cooper Cup. That might be a best case in there,
to be honest.
Speaker 1 (16:56):
I mean looking at it, I mean, hey, everyone's like
a Baker's written off. And then Cup Cup was terrible,
you know. Down the stretch he had what a couple
games with just one catch to close out the year.
Then he went against the Eagles had five catches. That
was his most since like the beginning of December. So like.
Speaker 2 (17:13):
When Puka came back.
Speaker 1 (17:14):
Yeah, Pooka came back and took the took the volume
with him. Yeah all right, well let me let me
break this down here. So let's break down Willie's Indianapolis
adventure here. So I'm not gonna sing it as the
Colts fan of the year guy who sings all those songs.
I can't do it. But uh yeah, let me break
(17:36):
this down here. I wanna go back into here. Uh
let's see which one do I want? I want this
one and then I want that one. Okay, So Lucas
Soil Stadium, the big brick building. Uh. Photo on the
left was when we were coming into Indianapolis on a
Friday after this quote flight from Hell, which I didn't
think it was the Flight from Hell. I thought it
(17:58):
was a pretty enjoyable flight. There was some turbulence and
then the flight attendant fell when there was no you know,
rattling of the plane. So I think she was overreacting
to the whole thing. And then you know, you kind
of feel it and all that stuffy was having a
fun time.
Speaker 2 (18:11):
Who coined it the flight from Hell?
Speaker 1 (18:13):
Oh, my fiance, Alison.
Speaker 2 (18:16):
I was really thinking that maybe the flight attendant did,
which would be an insane thing for a flight attendant
to say, very good.
Speaker 1 (18:25):
You know, after everything that's gone on, you know, with
planes and all that stuff last week. So yes, it
was coined the Flight from Hell. Even after spending forty
bucks in an airport for two beverages. Yeah, a little excessive.
Speaker 2 (18:38):
That's the receipt from Hell.
Speaker 1 (18:39):
We're there, it is the receipt from Hell. But hey,
Jason spent like sixty bucks on two drinks. So but yeah,
So Lucas Oil Stadium here seats just over sixty thousand people.
Hosted the very first Royal Rumble, which is my first
event flying out to go to any of these events.
(19:00):
Only went driving to Philadelphia, Newark or went up to
MSG for these events. So this is my first time
going out there. Building doesn't look that big until you
get right underneath it in the second photo and you're like, damn,
that's a pretty big photo. So get in there. In
the coin term, the uber the Lift from Hell, which
was another thing, which is a whole nother thing I
(19:20):
can describe, but I'll describe it off camera. Trying to
get into the stadium. I give it a solid four
point seven. Trying to get in. There was no like
lines or whatever. It was just a big cluster fuck
of people trying to just get in at the same time.
Got there, you know, right as the gates opened up
at the first time. So that was what is this
out of ten or out of five out of ten? Oh, so,
(19:44):
trying to get into the stadium was a big cluster fuck,
trying to manage through no straight lines, and Colton joins
at the greatest time of me explaining this trip go
Devil's uh and yeah, trying to just merge in, trying
to get in here all the same time. So this
was a very very four point seven out of ten experience. Yeah,
(20:06):
but then you walk inside. Pat McAfee's right there, he's
talking on the pre show all that stuff, YadA YadA, YadA.
I gotta talk about the food and the bevies. Gotta
talk about this bad boy, this bad John, this nice
big old aluminum cup. Yeah is it?
Speaker 2 (20:23):
Is it the same?
Speaker 1 (20:25):
Yes, it's the same cup. It's from the same company. Yep,
from Ball the aluminum cup. This thing right here. Fourteen
bucks for a beverage. It was pretty good, although it
was a Micheli bultro. Is either that or bud light,
so I was like, okay, it's either pale or extra pale.
So yeah, had a pizza pretty good this time was sliced.
(20:45):
Uh yeah, I give it. I give it about you know,
a seven point four out of ten from my experience there,
which is pretty good. And then you go when you
experience it all, you go inside here seventy thousand people
packed into the Lucas Oil Stadium. Unfortunately, the AFC finalist
banner was not above me. Andrew lux semhow obtained it
and signed it inside Barstool's headquarters, so it was a
(21:08):
little upset about that. But the crowd and all that stuff,
I can't rate an NFL crowd because this wasn't an
NFL thing. This was a wrestling thing, and being the
Royal Rumble a big four pay per view. I really
give it. I give this a top three event that
I have been to. I rate it up there with
Summer Stamp twenty seventeen in Brooklyn, and they can tell
you the most. If the product sucks, it sucks, and
(21:30):
then Rustlemania forty nine one in Philadelphia. I'll rate it
number three on my list. Crowd was great, it was exciting.
I do have videos I could show you. I show
Speed getting demolished, which is my favorite video of all time.
I love that video to the end of life. Yeah,
I'll just put that video on this is That was
(22:34):
my favorite thing in the entire trip, is just seeing
Speed getting demolished. Colon's just he doesn't want any more
of this stuff. He wants me to continue roll on
with the show.
Speaker 5 (22:45):
No, hey, man, I want to ask how your trip was.
I could care less about the wrestling part of all
of it, but it seems like you had a great time,
which is cool. Again, people love it, man. I used
to be into it when I was younger, and I
don't know why, but as soon as I found out
it was fake, I was like, Oh, what the hell
am I watching this for? And then that was that again.
(23:06):
I see a bunch of adults still watching it and
into it. People love wrestling for a reason. It's just
not for me. Ever since I found out it wasn't
like real wrestling, even though they are getting hurt, Like
I mean, I saw the video Kevin, that one's going
through the light, like, bro, that that's up. Still Art's
like out like again, you can't fix that stuff, jumping
off the steel cages at that high like it's not fake.
(23:30):
You can't fake that stuff. But yeah, I just not
not for me. I don't know why. But ever since
I found that out, I was like, what the hell
am I watching this for? So people love it that
I'm gold There had to good time man, went took
a blast.
Speaker 1 (23:45):
Went to this place called Foga to chow Friday night.
One of the best steakhouses I have been to, a
sixty three dollars thing, and it's all you can eat.
They'll come around with pecanya top, surloin garlic wrap, surloin
bacon rap, surloin bacon rap and garlic, chicken, pork sausage,
all that stuff. They just like assault you. They're like, oh, hey,
(24:05):
you want this, then you slice it. You get to
give you little tongs like pull it off as they're
slicing it, you put on your plate, you eat it
a whole like salad bar with like fruits and fish
all that stuff, soups and salads. That was really good.
And then I went to a B Dubs there and
it was pretty ghetto, so you know, that was the
least favorite part of the trip. But I did see
(24:26):
bush light on tap, which you know you're not in
New Jersey. If you see bush light on tap, you
don't really see that stuff around here. I had a
great time though. The lift from hell, uh, you know,
I survived. And then the walk back it wasn't that bad.
We stayed right by the circle, so it was like
a fifteen minute walk, but you're walking with like thirty
thousand other people just back to your hotel, so it's
(24:49):
it was an easy walk to say the least. So
getting out was a lot better than getting in. But
our seats were also like right there the window, like
you know, doors are right there, you know you can
get up, walk out all that stuff. Oh yeah, I
had a great time. Obviously, have to go back for football.
I did talk to this guy next to me. He
has cold season tickets he's been a season ticket holder
(25:11):
since twenty sixteen. And he told me Andrew and Anthony Richardson,
he's not He's not the answer. Gotta get rid of him,
he said, ax him, get him out.
Speaker 4 (25:21):
He's not the guy.
Speaker 5 (25:24):
Not that guy though.
Speaker 1 (25:26):
But he also told me I have to come back
for the ndy five hundredraft to go for all the
parties and all that stuff they have in the inner thing.
He goes, Listen, you'll never have to buy a beer.
If you go there, pay forty bucks. You go in
the middle there, you'll always have a beer in your
hand no matter what. He goes, it's a great people
watching he says, it's a great people watching experience race
who really cares the people watching ten out of ten?
(25:47):
And he also told me I have to go to
this told me, I got to go to the state go.
Speaker 2 (25:52):
To a NASCAR race because I think they're probably.
Speaker 1 (25:57):
What's the closest one.
Speaker 5 (25:58):
Delaware over yeah, or Cocon's or Dover one of this year.
Speaker 1 (26:03):
Yeah, but yeah. He told me to go to Saint Elmo's,
which is a steakhouse there, and he says it's the
best shrimp cocktail in the country. It's rated that high
and I have to try it. But he told me
I have to come back for a Colts game because
the tickets are fairly priced.
Speaker 3 (26:18):
That that place is in Heart is in the Giants
hard knocks. They all hide it during the combine. Yeah,
apparently it lights your hair on fire.
Speaker 1 (26:29):
Spicy never had a shrim cocktail, so that's gonna be
my first time. But yeah, ten out of ten trip,
I'll go again. If everything's a walking distance, obviously, it's
a lot better than having to rent a car and
all that stuff. They wanted to charge one hundred and
fifty bucks to park at the stadium for that event,
and then or our hotel was they were charging sixty
(26:52):
bucks to park. And it's like, thank god, I don't
have a car. I could just walk there. I'll just
pay the lift, you know, seventy bucks for to and
from the airport. Like I'm okay with that altogether. So
couldn't beat it.
Speaker 5 (27:05):
Couldn't be that's the problem. Even like again, like, oh,
don't drink and drive. The problem is like and I
got it, like Lift and Uber and all these places
gotta make money. But like this is why he's so
sadly have people drinking and driving because like it's I
got it. You should be responsible if you're going out,
you should know like to have a limit and like, no,
you're gonna spend that money on the lift or uber
but man, they they you might as well chop your
(27:29):
arm in your leg off because boy oh boy, that's
what they're charging you to go.
Speaker 2 (27:33):
So it's especially on like a high demand, high traffic moment,
that's crazy expensive.
Speaker 1 (27:43):
Yeah, a little injury round up here. So we got
LANDA Dickerson who says, quote, I will get stretchered off
the field if it relies on me, uh for the
Super Bowl despite having a knee injury that he had
during the NFC Championship game. He's gonna battle through it.
And then the scent of it's not really known, but
that's all we got for that. Then Eagles, uh dealing.
(28:04):
Carter missed media availability due to an illness, but we'll
learn more on his participation status for practice today later on.
So only two injuries we have. And then the Chiefs.
Obviously there's nothing about the Chiefs. So yeah, that's it.
That's it for the injuries. Let's talk about everyone's favorite
(28:25):
thing here, I talk I ask it every every every season,
every season, this episode, I ask it every time, I
ask it every time here, How does the field to
see your team win a championship at Tannati, a super Bowl,
a Stanley, an NBA championship, championship, the NBA Championship.
Speaker 5 (28:47):
It was great. It was during COVID, so everyone called
it a fake championship, but I knew it. In title, yeah,
Mickey Mass title, kiss my rear end, that's a legitimate title.
It was great. I was a toddler when Lord Stanley
came back to Jersey, so I can't really give you
any information on that Yankees. I was also a youngin
(29:10):
when they won, so again, couldn't give you anything on that.
Steelers was a range of emotions against Arizona and that
super Bowl. There's nothing like it. I can't wait to
kind of enjoy one as an adult now whenever that
time comes. Sadly it's not anytime soons with this dysfunctional franchise,
but I can't wait for that moment celebrate with my
(29:32):
dad whenever it does come, and I can enjoy it
a little more as an adult in the meaning and
just eat, sleep, breathe football. I am now compared to
I was like a young kid even though all I
did was, you know, watch sports. But yeah, there's nothing
like it. The most recent one here is the granddaddy
of them all is one Jake. So in my double
(29:53):
dip here so you can kiss my ass Jake, but
no smirk, nothing. This is a man that is locked
in on football week. Holy cow. See, by the way,
I don't know if it's just me, Jake, it might
feel a different for you, but like Will and Dom
has this week felt like super Bowl Week to you guys,
(30:14):
For me, it's enough. Yeah, for me, it's a no,
I don't know again, Jake, like being an Eagles fan,
like going on like your social media like it's Eagles
like for me, I go on social media and steers
stuff like I couldn't imagine this being super Bowl week
with the steeers and like I'd be in Gold like
as a casual. I feel like I don't again, it
could because of the big NBA trades that have like
kind of taken over the news. But like I totally
(30:38):
forgot like that this we used to super Bowl at times.
Speaker 3 (30:42):
I usually don't even pay attention to it anyway, Like
Dom and I were talking about earlier. Like the only
thing I remember from like even seeing on a clip
or watching from the from Super Bowl fifty two was
the alshon Jeffrey just like torturing them, mostly because that's
exactly how I feel about the week.
Speaker 4 (31:00):
It's like, this is ridiculous. They don't need to do this,
but I I just I don't.
Speaker 3 (31:06):
I don't I one I have, I don't normally care,
but to it also does feel like it's not as
blown up as it normally is.
Speaker 4 (31:17):
But I guess I'll say mine. I think Tom's looking
up something. Yeah, I like that.
Speaker 3 (31:23):
The two best sports moments was getting to see the
Rose Bowl in person. You know, Penn State, When's When's
the Rose Bowl? But nothing will I don't anything will
compare until the next actual championship from when we want
the Super Bowl versus the Patriots. Like not a shame
(31:45):
to say I cried, like when I when Tom Brady
got tripsacked. I was jumping up and down, knees to
chest as a grown man.
Speaker 4 (31:54):
Zero shame.
Speaker 3 (31:56):
It's it's especially I got to experience that one with
my dad and I a bunch of older people who
really appreciated it more of after all the years of
like not winning a super Bowl and all the heartbreak,
and then you got to where we let a deal
with all the Giants fans who you know, how many
rings you got, blah blah blah, even though they lose
every game to us, but they still get good to
(32:17):
say that, And it was a nice feeling, like you've
have to, you know, give them the finger and say, shut.
Speaker 1 (32:24):
Up, what about you, dom I've seen what you've You've
seen what only one championship. I think I know where
it's going here.
Speaker 2 (32:39):
But what what do you think you know?
Speaker 1 (32:43):
I think I know. I think I think I know.
Your face is glowing right, I already know where it's going.
I know where it's going. I know where it's going here.
Speaker 2 (32:54):
Give me. It took me a while to find this.
I want you to know that this didn't it took me.
Like all of Jake's talking, I got my one of
my championship moments hijacked for me.
Speaker 1 (33:20):
Uh, here we go, baby, here we go.
Speaker 2 (33:24):
I don't know how loud this is gonna play.
Speaker 1 (33:28):
Loud? Oh no, it's muted. You have to unmute it.
Speaker 2 (33:32):
Right, It's gonna play through me and Jake as well.
Speaker 1 (33:35):
Okay, so I'm gonna just.
Speaker 2 (33:39):
But uh, Colton, I don't know, do you does Colton?
Speaker 1 (33:43):
Colton? Do you know about.
Speaker 5 (33:46):
I feel like I remember seeing videos of this. Isn't
there like a picture of you guys?
Speaker 2 (33:51):
No, no, so much better than that. This is when
the twenty teen Washington Capitals won the Stanley Cup and
me being a Capital's fan, this is a big deal,
you know. I mean, like you can see I have
a championship parade thing right there. I have been newspaper.
I have the newspaper from Washington, d C. When they won.
(34:14):
I actually brought this home with me so like unframed it.
But because I went to the parade, well went as well.
And uh and you know we had a great spot
by the way on this parade.
Speaker 1 (34:30):
Yeah, we get out, we get out of the train
station and they're like, well, where do you want to say?
And I just stop in the middle of a crosswalk
and they just put a bear can in front of me.
So we were just like first people there.
Speaker 2 (34:39):
Yeah, it was awesome. And uh so then news station
came around and uh, this is this is what I
have to remember the moment by.
Speaker 1 (34:50):
You gotta you gotta unmute it. I don't hear it
at all.
Speaker 2 (34:54):
That one second.
Speaker 5 (34:56):
Oh my goodness, yeah, it might be so loud. I
don't know.
Speaker 1 (35:05):
How much it means like the world to me to
see them win the cup. It really does. But well,
I mean, like you don't know what twenty or so
like it means to me, Like you meant you meet
the former world champions, and now you're all the way
you yourself.
Speaker 5 (35:23):
That's about the parade. Such an asshole, he's such broad,
this guy Will here.
Speaker 2 (35:34):
I am standing right next to him the whole time.
By the way I am. They won't show me. I
am standing him right like shoulder to shoulder on the
other side of him, to the point where one time
when he was like fumbling over his words, he's like,
they haven't won in like I twenty years, twenty years,
and so it's just like that's my moment.
Speaker 5 (35:55):
You're you're way too nice. I would have thrown him
right under the bus. He had a capital sman, I'm
the real Capitals fan. He's not. You're way too nice.
I would like, I was hoping I come to me,
and I'm like.
Speaker 1 (36:09):
No.
Speaker 5 (36:09):
I would have thrown Will's corny ass underneath the freaking
bus and ran him over, backed it up, went back
over again. Nah, I would have thrown him under the bus.
He's such a little cheater. This guy picks every team
under the sun, Like I just weight man. I know
he was itching for the Commanders to win the make
it to the Super Bowl. I know he was itching
for it. Same thing with the La Rams. He was
(36:30):
just itching for it.
Speaker 2 (36:30):
Well, I was.
Speaker 1 (36:31):
I was talking about it two weeks ago. I was like,
come on, it's it was almost a Billy Bowl like
Dom even Proclinta as the Billy Bowl.
Speaker 2 (36:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (36:38):
And ever since he decided he wants to be a
Flyers fan, we've been awful. Ever since he decided, he's
like a curse.
Speaker 5 (36:45):
Now he's secretly happy though capitals are first place. He's
secretly happy right now. Don't worry. That's why he's like.
That's why he's all good right now.
Speaker 1 (36:54):
Yeah, all I have is just let's do this. Yeah.
Two Fantasy Championship rings, so all I got my back back.
Speaker 5 (37:01):
He's on ov watch. Don't don't let employ. He's on
ov watch.
Speaker 1 (37:07):
Eagles one, Eagles one. I got. It's like, so far
is looking one? There we go? Uh, come on, you
wanna you wanna correct no, I doesn't want to correct. Yeah,
that's all I have for championships. Maybe I'll bring Arizona
State championship into my dynasty if the game's ever played.
(37:27):
Who knows, not throwing trade at anyone here, just gotta
play C J. Smith on there we go. All right,
but let's talk about some other stuff from super Bowl
week here? What is uh your favorite moment? Obviously we're
not watching five hours of media coverage for the super
Bowl Opening night, but there is a lot of clips
that have come up after it. Uh, what is your
(37:49):
favorite moment from super Bowl Opening Night that you got
to see probably on social media, not uh not watching
the broadcast.
Speaker 5 (37:59):
I mean, you're talking issue nothing at all. Nothing is
my favorite moment.
Speaker 2 (38:03):
For me.
Speaker 5 (38:04):
It's Luca Daunton stuff and where it. We're an NFL podcast,
so I am going to avoid that. But yeah, I've
enjoyed the Laker nonsense from all this stuff. So yeah, no,
nothing for a Super Bowl week for me, coach.
Speaker 4 (38:15):
I haven't watched one second of this year.
Speaker 2 (38:17):
Yeah I've really, I've seen clip but none of them
were that enjoy Like the Jameis Winston thing doesn't do
it for me, So I really didn't care that much
about that.
Speaker 3 (38:26):
Like, like I've watched like the normal shows I've watched
all year that happened to be down in the radio
row whatever it's called. But like I haven't like the
player interviews. The only one I've actually even seen in
a clip is Travis Kelsey losing his mind. They're on
a tantrum.
Speaker 5 (38:46):
Yes, he belongs in the bathroom.
Speaker 3 (38:52):
No that, Like I already said that, the best one
ever is Alshon Jeffery is bodying that or asking dumb questions.
Speaker 4 (38:59):
It's like how weather affected we play a dome?
Speaker 2 (39:03):
That's right, Yeah, I didn't see incredible that.
Speaker 5 (39:07):
It's incredible that they let all these idiots down there.
Speaker 3 (39:09):
Actually, no, I saw one thing one from this. It's
actually hilarious. There's a story someone went up to Brandon
Man the punter confuse and asked him wish Isaiah picheckout
because he was confused because it was number ten. It
was a wrong team and not even close the same position.
Speaker 4 (39:27):
Nice.
Speaker 1 (39:30):
I should see if I can get a media pass
and just go in there. I'll interview all these guys.
I'll be a better Guermo than the actual Guermo.
Speaker 2 (39:37):
Oh people, definitely fake passesn't getting there.
Speaker 3 (39:40):
I swear that they got apparently they got a fatal
recognition prap, like, oh.
Speaker 5 (39:45):
No, they're legit. It's just they give it to everybody.
So you probably could get if you want, I'll.
Speaker 1 (39:50):
Fly down there. I'll get us some interviews. Well, I
gotta say, Jamis Winston having w cookies in his pocket
and like throwing it at everyone was pretty funny. And yeah,
it's like, I don't drop anything, and he totally dropped
the cookie and it just broke nice.
Speaker 2 (40:06):
That's rough. That's a rough luck, man.
Speaker 1 (40:10):
So yeah, that was pretty funny. And then everyone, oh, hey,
how do you eat W's? And then you know he's
just like, get the W's going on? All right, I'll
skip forward here. So we are an NFL podcast. But
there was a monumental trade that happened late Saturday night
early Sunday morning, depending on where your time zone was,
with Luka, Doncic, Anthony Davis and then whatever scraps were
(40:32):
sent to the Utah Jazz and NFL terms. What would
be the comparison of Luca going to a team and
Anthony Davis going to another team and then you know,
the third team just no on some kneecaps or whatever.
Speaker 5 (40:51):
I guess trading Joe Burrow for TJ Watt I think
I already saw that analogy like that's probably the best
way to describe it. TJ is a very good player,
just like Anthony Davis is a very good player. But
you're trading a transcendent talent in one of the main
positions in the sport for a position that's not really
(41:15):
as important. Again, ed rushers are important to like, same thing,
like a center in a rim, detecting big in the NBA. Yeah. Oh,
Also the age difference.
Speaker 1 (41:26):
Yes, thirty one for ad in twenty five for Luca. Oh,
he's only twenty five and he's on his third team now.
Speaker 5 (41:40):
I hate you. Oh my gosh, he's not. He's on
his second team. Shut up.
Speaker 1 (41:44):
He was Atlanta Hawk though, Okay, he went from a
Hawk to a Maverick or whatever it is, just like
Russell Wilson, he went from a Hawk to a Steeler.
Speaker 5 (41:58):
I'm so glad we're almost done for the year.
Speaker 4 (42:02):
Oh, oh my god.
Speaker 1 (42:10):
Since we're almost done, let's kind of recap here. What
was everyone's number one moment from the show that expanded
uh twenty eight weeks what there's eighteen regular season games,
wild Card, Divisional round, Conference, Pro Bowl, this show, so
another five So that's twenty three and then we add
another seven weeks. Damn almost thirty shows.
Speaker 5 (42:37):
Yeah, mine's easy. Mine's always the Draft show. Me flipping
out for the second year in a row over in
Atlanta draft pick which made no sense again with Michael
Pennix Junior. Remember exactly what my reaction was, Easily the
Draft show.
Speaker 1 (42:57):
Atlanta's run by morons. Oh my god, the Draft.
Speaker 2 (43:02):
Show is great.
Speaker 5 (43:03):
They're idiots. Man, Oh my again, can't wait for next
year's draft show. And I'm mind boggled again with the
bland of doing something stupid in the first round teams.
This origin of to taking smart draft picks in the
first round.
Speaker 2 (43:16):
I would say mine is probably the moment that people
started asking us questions in fantasy that one week Will
and then like we were like, oh, we have engagement now,
and then we created the fantasy things and then like
me and Will at times spent two full hours just answering,
(43:37):
doing nothing other than answering people, and that was it.
So I mean, like that was cool to get the
engagement finally, like live engagement with questions and stuff is
pretty awesome. And that was a very big change of
pace for us obviously, So that was probably one of
the cooler things, I think.
Speaker 1 (43:56):
And then we had this guy who was asking, oh,
do I start George Pickens or Cherry mcclaury in week eighteen.
I said, Tarry McLaurin, it's not a question, and he
goes why. I'm like, if you start George Pickens, you're
an absolute idiot. And he goes, why again, what do
you mean why, I've already told you it. Terry mclaurin's
a way better receiver. He's going again, like, look at it.
Come on, h exactly, that's exactly what that should be. Okay.
(44:20):
I should have just blew it up and been like, okay,
it's somebody say he's back.
Speaker 4 (44:28):
We get to use it again, Josh for Danniels.
Speaker 1 (44:32):
Back in the league, Baby back in the league. Jake,
what's your number one moment from what twenty nine weeks
of agonizing football talk?
Speaker 4 (44:43):
I honestly have no idea. It's honestly, it's probably all
the times I get up in the batroom like just
all this just it's just the best thing. It's it
makes my whole week.
Speaker 2 (44:55):
I enjoyed the Willisms.
Speaker 4 (44:57):
The Willisms are pretty great.
Speaker 2 (44:59):
I always Joe the Willisms like that, especially when he
started really doing the the regular season picks and like
doing all the the traffic routes from one spot to
the other and all that stuff. I was I was
enjoying that because I don't think out of the four
of us, I don't know if the three the other
three of us could do that. So I do give
(45:19):
him credit for that. That was impressive.
Speaker 1 (45:23):
And as also put in the comments the Billy Bowl,
what could have been? It was right there, damn it,
it was right there. Uh geez, I don't even know
what my number one moment would be outside of Colon
ol Colton for the wallap pizza. That that was pretty
high lady. So that that that's up there. Yeah, I don't.
(45:46):
I don't know what else my number one moment would be.
Speaker 2 (45:48):
I'm sorry, I will say are I did a runner
up for me? Is our an the uh NFC South
like preview?
Speaker 1 (46:04):
Oh yeah, we ghastly Cotland and the pick and the falcons.
Speaker 4 (46:06):
Yeah, honestly some of the cells are the rants for
the cells.
Speaker 2 (46:10):
Yeah, that's fair.
Speaker 4 (46:11):
They're pretty good.
Speaker 1 (46:13):
The weather the weather.
Speaker 2 (46:15):
Well selling the weather like four times.
Speaker 5 (46:17):
Yeah, what was amazing for that? The ultimate jinks because
guess what we're getting like ten inches of snow next week.
Speaker 1 (46:23):
There we go. I'm so excited, snow digg not even
buying the weather. I'm buying the weather. Just give a
call intern Joe. He'll make sure that snow turns in
the rain instantly. The biggest jinks out there. But yeah,
I gotta ask. I know we've been talking about this
(46:44):
for a last I don't know, twenty three weeks. There
wasn't I don't know if you want to put the
Progate Bowl game up here or if there was another
game that caught your eye. What from this weekend may
have caught your eye from this past weekend across all sports,
not just the Pro Bow.
Speaker 5 (47:01):
Me watching Michigan win in person against Rookers. That was
my game of the week. And this question shouldn't have
been asked. Uh, well, you're terrible.
Speaker 1 (47:10):
Hey go Maryland.
Speaker 4 (47:13):
Penn State getting shut out three straight games. That's pretty awesome.
Speaker 1 (47:17):
I love it.
Speaker 4 (47:18):
Thanks Will still Mew.
Speaker 2 (47:20):
You know my top games were I took a Rutgers
class last week from Tuesday to Friday on Zoom eight
hours a day. It's a long class. Okay. I played
so much NC double A during that class. I'm not
(47:42):
like I played, probably played like a solid probably like
I might have gotten through like ten games of NZ
double A football during that class over those four days.
So you know what, I'm gonna get an idea on
the exam. So I'm just saying did not reflect me
slacking whatsoever. Okay, just putting that out there.
Speaker 1 (48:04):
He just had the good playbook.
Speaker 2 (48:06):
Yeah, and I was figuring out my playbook and everything,
and you know, and just so I would say those games,
those games got me through those eight hours. So those
were my Those are my top picks of games.
Speaker 1 (48:21):
Yeah, I didn't watch any games this weekend.
Speaker 2 (48:23):
You know what.
Speaker 1 (48:23):
The Men's Royal Rumble. That's what I'm gonna put my
top game of the week.
Speaker 2 (48:26):
Okay, it's sports adjacent. It's perfect.
Speaker 1 (48:30):
If you say his name, he appeared and Joe Hendry
did appear and it made my day. And then also
John Cena coming out and then it will see him punk.
You see him, dude. They just played a song. It's
like God coming to the ring. He just you know,
the light just shines down the aisle and just goes
all the way to the ring. All right, and here
(48:51):
we go one final time in the regular season. Here, buy,
sell and hold ahead of the super Bowl. Okay, ahead
of the super Bowl. Obviously there could be some other
stuff there. You gotta continue it one final time, one
final time. Here. What are we looking at in a
buy category? Obviously we said last week's things could change
(49:13):
between Wednesday to Wednesday, and.
Speaker 5 (49:14):
You know, things did change. I am buying Los Angeles
Lakers and Rob Polinka or Rob Low, however you want
to call him, because he looks just like Rob Low.
I'm buying Los Angeles Lakers. I know wrong, Sport, don't care.
I don't even notice your rule was playing this week,
Luca Magic, Bye, bye bye.
Speaker 3 (49:38):
I'm gonna buy on Brandon Graham playing. Remember what I
did last week? I appreciate Yah, Brandon Grahams one hundred
percent playing.
Speaker 2 (49:49):
I'm gonna do my annual cell of Roger Goodell. Oh
what we doing? Buys?
Speaker 1 (49:55):
Yeah, let's go in order. We're gonna do buys.
Speaker 2 (49:58):
S excited to say this. I don't know, man, I
don't super Bowl food. I'm buying what I eat there
in the super Bowl. It's always a great time.
Speaker 4 (50:13):
I'm buying Wills, also buying Will's US.
Speaker 2 (50:18):
I am buying Will's Buffalo Wild Wings account rewards account.
That's what I'm buying every year.
Speaker 1 (50:28):
I'm buying into Kanya. That is a really good steak.
And then speaking of b dubs, it's a whole free
list right there. That's all that's right there. It makes
me so happy. And then what about cells where we
want to go on for cells? Here, domm you go first,
it's your annual cell Go ahead.
Speaker 2 (50:45):
Okay, I'm gonna sell the annual conversation Roger Goodell has
about the refereeing, where he says absurd things like I
have never seen better reffing in this league every year
where it's now we know, for your the NFL is
gonna do the wrong thing and continue with these rent
to ref union bull crap where they could just be
(51:08):
hiring their own refs and doing all the right things.
But of course we will not. So annually when Rogers
says absurd things like that, that's what I'm selling because
now is the only time he comments on it, and
it's always some absurd comment that he has that zero grief.
Speaker 4 (51:25):
It's always the meme of this is fine.
Speaker 2 (51:28):
Yeah, pretty much. So that's what I'm selling.
Speaker 4 (51:35):
Colton. You want to go or I got mine.
Speaker 5 (51:38):
I'm gonna keep it all on the same topic here,
I'm selling Nigo Williams and the Dallas Mavericks. What are
you doing trading a twenty five year old superstar. I
know I'm on the wrong sport for the week, Fellas
and the biggest game of them all this week. Shame
on me, that's fine. Shame on the NFL for having
no story line and having the same one over and
over that I could care less about. Yeah, Dallas Mavericks,
(51:59):
what are you doing? Here's my self.
Speaker 4 (52:06):
I was gonna sell the Pro Bowl, but it's just
too easy. It's just too easy.
Speaker 1 (52:10):
Well, hanging fruit, it's too low one.
Speaker 3 (52:14):
Now I'm selling coltand because I doesn't know what show
we're on, I'm gonna sell the MLB firing Pat Hoague
for alleged gambling. How can he be fixing games? If
he's calling literal perfect games, it's statistically possible. Yet he's
like a machine, so it makes total sense. The one
(52:36):
Jil Hernandez three or an umpire in all of sports
is actually good and like that is perfect. Every time
and he's gone. He's just too good.
Speaker 1 (52:47):
M uh my cell is justin Tucker. I don't really
want to talk about it. And let's go into holds here.
What about holds.
Speaker 5 (52:59):
I'm holding onto my fantasy name for next year of
Rubin Tuck. That is, I'm holding onto that name for
next year. No, we'll stay on football for once. Out
of old mind. It took me two segments three hours
for Super Bowl week. I should do something football. I'm
going to hold on to Patrick Mahomes winning another Super Bowl. Yeah,
(53:22):
just have a weird feeling he's gonna do it again.
And then Travis Kelsey's back because they go.
Speaker 2 (53:27):
For for I just.
Speaker 5 (53:31):
Why who let these morons back in the game again?
Can Josh Allen a Company get over the hump? Please?
Holy cow, this is awful. Holding on Kansas City winning
another Super Bowl.
Speaker 2 (53:48):
I'm gonna hold on. I think that this is going
to be a bottom halftime performance. It's been scrutinized since
it got announced, and.
Speaker 1 (54:01):
I just hope it's fifteen minutes of him calling out Drake.
Speaker 2 (54:04):
It's probably gonna be that, and I really don't care
because we've been hearing it for way long. So like
I'm holding on it being a very forgettable halftime performance.
Speaker 4 (54:20):
I'm holding on that the idea of the Australia game.
I think it's gonna.
Speaker 1 (54:28):
They have to a spider outbreak out of Team Hotel.
I can't wait for that headpline one.
Speaker 2 (54:33):
Yeah, Kangaroo's still in the field.
Speaker 1 (54:40):
Steve Irwin's son is trying to wrangle corral the kangaroos.
That would be a cool halftime performance. It's like, you know,
he has a whole like rope and he can like
corral them all. You know, I'm showing.
Speaker 2 (54:54):
Bindy's gonna be there freaking They're gonna do a whole thing.
It's gonna be a thing. It might be, could be cool.
Speaker 1 (54:59):
It's gonna be thing.
Speaker 2 (55:00):
Could be cool, but probably won't because of course it's
definitely That's a good hold, honestly, because who knows had.
Speaker 3 (55:07):
They they were walking this real narrow path the where
it's like gonna be okay, but otherwise it's gonna be
a shit show, way worse than the Brazil game was.
Speaker 1 (55:19):
Yeah, in my hold, I'm going to hold on the
Chiefs that this could be the third time in a row.
That's my final hold. And there we have it a
whole bunch of weeks. Middle of July, ninety degrees now
down to thirty degrees in a wind chill outside as
low as the single digits, as high as probably one
(55:40):
hundred degrees during this entire time, our last picks of
the season. Unfortunately, I actually forgot the time and I
was playing too much Rocket League before we started the show,
so I never made the lower third graphic.
Speaker 5 (55:54):
Thank s, folks, I'm still running champ. I love it,
Thank you, appreciate you.
Speaker 1 (55:58):
So, yes, we are down to our Super Bowl picks.
Let me get this Google doc up here? Where is it?
There we go, and it goes as follows. I have
fifteen in this playoffs, damas thirteen, Jake has eleven, and
Colon you have nine. And here we go our picks,
(56:20):
followed by the MVP and then the score prediction. So
so yeah, here we go. Colon, you're the only one
that has not had their picks in here yet, So.
Speaker 5 (56:33):
Yeah, I'm terrible. I didn't. I totally forgot. I told
you bad week for the NFL, and I don't know
your big games this week until Sunday when I wake up, like,
oh yeah, super Bowl today, I think Kansas City wins again.
I think they win thirty five to thirty two. Kansas
City win. Super Bowl MVP goes to one the only
(56:56):
America's favorite, Patrick mahomes Well, hanging fruit. That's fine, big
pickle Ah, Yeah, Chiefs win. Andy Reid's a genius and
uh that's a wrap on the season.
Speaker 1 (57:10):
It's good to domb here. Dom good on the board.
Speaker 2 (57:14):
I went Philly. I think factor is Saquon. I think
it's different than any other year. That's really it for me,
is the Saquon thing. All playoffs haven't been stopped like consistency.
We talked about it last week. That's been the biggest
part is the consistency from Saquon. That's that's been the
(57:36):
biggest game changer across the every Eagles game matchup havn't
playoffs so far. I think everyone can agree he's been
the best performer in playoffs and it's not close across
the board. So that's just it. That's a factor. So
I'm going Eagles and then a final score of thirty
four to twenty eight.
Speaker 1 (58:00):
Let's go to Jake.
Speaker 2 (58:00):
Now do I even have to say.
Speaker 1 (58:04):
Is that like by God, it's the Commanders, the Billy
Bowl could happen.
Speaker 2 (58:10):
It's the Rams.
Speaker 3 (58:13):
Yeah, I think, well, Will hasn't done his pick, but
we're gonna for the third time this playoffs crush Will's hopes.
Speaker 4 (58:22):
And the Eagles win their second Super Bowl.
Speaker 3 (58:26):
On the back of Saquonkley's MVP because if we if
we're gonna win, we're gonna need him to have a
you know, a saque Barkley game where he you may,
I may not need to get that one hundred yards
that they Spagnolo, but he needs to do enough to
burn clock, keep the offense off, Chiefs offense off the field,
(58:47):
and just be efficient and score.
Speaker 4 (58:51):
And uh, something's telling me about twenty eight twenty.
Speaker 3 (58:59):
Just over one score really with a two point conversion
and the defense does its job.
Speaker 1 (59:10):
My pick is the Chiefs MVP is Mahomes instead of
twenty eight twenty four. Is what a generic score is.
I went thirty one to twenty seven on this one.
So that is my pick there for the Super Bowl,
(59:31):
And gentlemen, it is came. It is when this dire
season starting from the middle of July all the way
to the beginning of February coming gone, and that's it.
