Speaker 2: Who's got it better than the Chevy Silverado.
Speaker 4: Body very much like the Chevy Silverado.
Speaker 2: Dudelet's give a tip of the cap to the.
Speaker 4: Boy that is literally exceeding most touchdowns in Michigan history,
Speaker 4: rushing rushing touchdowns in Michigan history. In that game, in
Speaker 4: that moment he was down. I think he scored fourteen
Speaker 4: touchdowns this year. Like it was like, hey, he's off
Speaker 4: in the distance, we'll see what happens. But the guy
Speaker 4: truly after an ACL all that stuff, it was, Dude,
Speaker 4: it was so it was so fucking great to see.
Speaker 2: It really was.
Speaker 4: You gotta bleep the F word, But dude, I hated
Speaker 4: yesterday until the end.
Speaker 2: I hated it.
Speaker 4: Literally, woke up, got excited, went to the Chandler's house
Speaker 4: for New Year's and we're kind of talking this girl
Speaker 4: to Nay, she played softball at Alabama, and we're kind
Speaker 4: of chirping back and forth a little bit. I showed
Speaker 4: the little videos I was gonna post. I told her
Speaker 4: about the whole situation we talked about before about you
Speaker 4: guys ploting against people. Really it was just Garrett plotting
Speaker 4: against me, and so I thought, hey, it's me against
Speaker 4: the world of the bus essentially, which it kind of
Speaker 4: has been this whole entire year. Then I wake up
Speaker 4: in the morning, hit my little routine, hit my little work,
Speaker 4: and right around one pm, I'm nervous, nervous to the
Speaker 4: point where, man, what if they just get blown out again?
Speaker 4: What if this just happens again? What if all of
Speaker 4: the things that everybody said the men in this bus happens.
Speaker 2: And it was an incredible game.
Speaker 5: You have, Like when that first play happened in JJ
Speaker 5: trying to throw out a bounce and he just throws
Speaker 5: it to the Alabama defender. I just start laughing out loud, like,
Speaker 5: oh my god, this could be so bad.
Speaker 2: It could be so bad.
Speaker 5: Fortunately, uh you know they it wasn't a turnover right
Speaker 5: there to start.
Speaker 2: I mean, in my it's just there was a turnover
Speaker 2: just like three minutes later.
Speaker 5: I'm sure every Michigan was by sitting there when he
Speaker 5: threw that pick, like.
Speaker 4: Oh no, everybody. You just felt it was so tight.
Speaker 4: Everyone felt so tight and everything. And then I see
Speaker 4: the defense get pressure. They did like I think they
Speaker 4: sacked them like defense played out standing line a line
Speaker 4: which is crazy because you get a guy like Milroe,
Speaker 4: who is just a freak athlete, having those contained rushes
Speaker 4: running those inside games during pass plays. They had an
Speaker 4: incredible game plan, and I was very impressed with the
Speaker 4: back end of defense, the defense too, the way they're
Speaker 4: able to run with those.
Speaker 2: Athletes, because that is the fear of how found true.
Speaker 5: But I was I didn't understand, and I owe I
Speaker 5: owe the Michigan defense and apology. I didn't realize their
Speaker 5: game was like that. I'm looking at the back seven
Speaker 5: and they are they are some goons.
Speaker 4: Bro oh yeah, Will Johnson. And then I always forget
Speaker 4: the other kid's name, but he's number zero. They're both insane,
Speaker 4: thank you very much. And then that that more kid,
Speaker 4: the safety like all of them in the back end,
Speaker 4: that Colston kid, Brentwood, Brentwick Kidd Nashville, Tennessee. Like they
Speaker 4: just have dogs and dude, one of the most impressive
Speaker 4: people on that team is number seventy eighth, their d lineman,
Speaker 4: that their nose tackle. He is a unit kids like
Speaker 4: three point fifty. But you see him every time he's in.
Speaker 4: They revolve guys around so much. He's sprinting to the
Speaker 4: ball where he hawked that dude down against Penn State.
Speaker 4: Just amazing, but very uncharacteristic of Michigan. The way they
Speaker 4: had as many like miscues as they did.
Speaker 2: The special teams was what was killing y'all?
Speaker 5: Killing us, dude, because you guys like, uh, like Jim
Speaker 5: coach Moore, is it Coach Moore? Their offensive staff who
Speaker 5: put together that game plan, like they were doing a
Speaker 5: great job, like with all the shifts, with the motions
Speaker 5: after the shift, like messing with their eyes because you
Speaker 5: have to do you have to do a good job
Speaker 5: of adjusting like defensively.
Speaker 6: Uh.
Speaker 5: But I thought that Michigan just had a great game
Speaker 5: plan to kind of go along. Like of course I was.
Speaker 5: I was like rooting for Alabama. Then by the end
Speaker 5: of it, you're like, fuck man, Like they are playing
Speaker 5: a solid game and special teams almost killed you guys.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was like then that cat.
Speaker 5: At the end of the game trying to field the
Speaker 5: ball and then backed up on like the.
Speaker 4: Inch yard line and then you're thinking, you gotta do it.
Speaker 4: You can't even take a knee.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he what if we lost on a safety?
Speaker 4: But the thing, yeah, so you I think you're right,
Speaker 4: Like strategically, the game plan, everything, like Michigan had the
Speaker 4: better game plan. They were executing better, especially in the
Speaker 4: first half. The special team's plays like muffing that punt
Speaker 4: on the in the first quarter when you're getting the
Speaker 4: ball back for your second then you just spat Alabama
Speaker 4: seven right there? Then do you go through the game
Speaker 4: and this is what I love. I'll actually get to
Speaker 4: what I love about what Michigan did in these situations.
Speaker 4: But at the end of the game, you're going in,
Speaker 4: you have one drive to go and win it, forty
Speaker 4: five seconds left on the clock, and you put this
Speaker 4: white boy out here. No disrespect to him, but like
Speaker 4: that's the first punt I've seen him, I've seen him
Speaker 4: catch the entire game.
Speaker 2: Muffing the punts.
Speaker 4: It was one muff and the other kid. There was
Speaker 4: a couple more punts. This kid caught it just fine,
Speaker 4: and he goes be he goes inside the ten. He
Speaker 4: was inside of ten, backed up near this seventh. Like,
Speaker 4: that's just the awareness game where you're like, bro, just
Speaker 4: let it go and if they down it, that's fine,
Speaker 4: but you like that could have been essentially twenty fifteen
Speaker 4: Michigan State.
Speaker 5: Every special teams meeting in the country is if you're
Speaker 5: fielding a punt inside the ten, especially if you're backing
Speaker 5: up to go get it, you let it go.
Speaker 4: Let that thing go, ye, let it go. This is
Speaker 4: what I really liked about Michigan and the trust they
Speaker 4: have in their players. The first series of Michigan happens
Speaker 4: the almost pick, They end up going three and out,
Speaker 4: and then the defense gets the ball back.
Speaker 2: The whole punt thing happens.
Speaker 4: Eventually Michigan's obviously back on the field instead of just
Speaker 4: going all right, JJ.
Speaker 2: Almost threw a pick when he was.
Speaker 5: Throwing the ball away, We're gonna run it, and they
Speaker 5: it was seven nothing to like, yeah, seven nothing.
Speaker 4: Immediately goes and gets the ball out of JJ's head
Speaker 4: for an easy completion, getting his confidence back up. This
Speaker 4: eighty two kid when he muffs the punt he had
Speaker 4: to play down the field, gets them ten to eleven
Speaker 4: yards and like one series later, like they're going back
Speaker 4: to these guys and not just keeping them cold and
Speaker 4: then eventually like relying on them later in the game,
Speaker 4: which I thought was great. Roman Wilson the fourth quarter
Speaker 4: on fourth and three, Blake Korm, like you said, with
Speaker 4: the most and everything going from that trip to that
Speaker 4: bunch trips and then flipping the back. He did a
Speaker 4: great job of getting out and has an X play
Speaker 4: twenty twenty five yards. Roman Wilson has an abysmal block
Speaker 4: in the back, a like senior wide receiver does everything right,
Speaker 4: has the block in the back where you're just like,
Speaker 4: oh my god, they're literally trying to fucking ruin it.
Speaker 4: They're trying to ruin it because I don't know about
Speaker 4: you guys, but when that last drive, I'm thinking they're
Speaker 4: gonna eat up all the clock and in my world
Speaker 4: score and in that situation, based on how the second
Speaker 4: half has gone, you go for two.
Speaker 2: In that situation, in my head, they might go for
Speaker 2: two as well.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but fuck it with one one thirty eight left
Speaker 4: in the game. Alabama's got timeouts. I think it was
Speaker 4: the right move to hit the extra point. But if
Speaker 4: you were to get down where it's like ten seconds,
Speaker 4: where play hey boys, let's just win it here, balls.
Speaker 2: In our hands. They obviously made the right choice.
Speaker 4: But I love the fact that they went back to
Speaker 4: dudes that were making that made a couple of mistakes,
Speaker 4: and that shit was cool. I also love the referees
Speaker 4: laying the boys play. I thought the punter, I thought
Speaker 4: the punter getting kicked hit that was a flag. I
Speaker 4: thought JJ on that that, like JP said, that legacy
Speaker 4: catch when he got hit, that could have been a penalty.
Speaker 4: That last drive, JJ runs it, he's on the Alabama sideline,
Speaker 4: gets thrown to the ground outside the white paint. That's
Speaker 4: a penalty. But they let it ride, and they were
Speaker 4: calling it evenly, so that is I did. I did
Speaker 4: appreciate that. But and I told you this earlier because
Speaker 4: I'm it was a great game. You've had a lot
Speaker 4: of success in your fandom. That game, if Michigan doesn't
Speaker 4: make the uncharacteristic mistakes, is a double digit win for Michigan.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean that's the We're just playing the hypothetical
Speaker 5: game at this point.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, is this is this podcast just been
Speaker 4: me talking the whole time?
Speaker 5: Or no, I want to jump away with Hey, Gary,
Speaker 5: how'd you feel about the game?
Speaker 2: Uh? You know, obviously disappointing.
Speaker 7: It's you know, Taylor's right, that was the worst feeling
Speaker 7: of anxiety the entire day leading up one o'clock hit
Speaker 7: and I'm pacing around like what do I do? Like
Speaker 7: this sucks closer it gets your nerves head in and
Speaker 7: you're like, holy crap, here we go. First play pick,
Speaker 7: I'm like, oh, it's a rap. It's a rap. Second
Speaker 7: play I don't even remember what happens, but JJ converts
Speaker 7: a third down on that first drive where he throws
Speaker 7: a laser on the sideline. They review it, guys toes in.
Speaker 7: I'm like, oh fuck, Like we gotta finish plays. Obviously
Speaker 7: we get the ball back. Jase breaks one touchdown. I
Speaker 7: feel a little better, and then the game kind of
Speaker 7: steals after Michigan immediately drives down its course because I
Speaker 7: was like, oh shit, here we go, like they're gonna
Speaker 7: move the ball. And so the whole back and forth
Speaker 7: or forever was extremely stressful.
Speaker 2: Airs were all over the field for both sides.
Speaker 5: Who do you put the game on? Who were you
Speaker 5: most disappointed or what were you most disappointed in.
Speaker 2: Our game plan? For sure?
Speaker 7: The game plan on offense, I think think was immediately
Speaker 7: set back because of Michigan's game plan on defense. They
Speaker 7: came with pressure immediately to start the game, and that's
Speaker 7: how you get Milroe off his game. You can't give
Speaker 7: them time because the longer he extends plays, it's where
Speaker 7: he beats you. And there was no extending plays. I
Speaker 7: think play calling was interesting. When we had success running
Speaker 7: the ball, we'd get inside the thirty and start throwing screens.
Speaker 7: We even had success doing that all year. I think,
Speaker 7: you know, there's big mistakes and big moments that back
Speaker 7: you up to where you have to settle for three.
Speaker 7: They could have put the game away hopefully.
Speaker 2: You know, it was tough.
Speaker 7: I think there's like four plays that Michigan had that
Speaker 7: were perfect on third and that fourth down conversion. I
Speaker 7: mean it was just you got beat kind of thing.
Speaker 7: Because the game was called so fair. There is no
Speaker 7: like if and butts. You know, it's just kind of
Speaker 7: didn't execute. For sure, How I think the month off
Speaker 7: hurt us more than it helped or I think the
Speaker 7: month off hurt us and it helped Michigan.
Speaker 5: How sick are you that it was Michigan and knowing
Speaker 5: you're coming into work next day with the boy.
Speaker 2: It sucks for sure, I'm not gonna lie. It sucks.
Speaker 7: I think because of how the game went, it makes
Speaker 7: it a little.
Speaker 2: Bit better in a weird way.
Speaker 7: It could have been, like Taylor said, like, it definitely
Speaker 7: could have been way worse. I mean, we only had
Speaker 7: two touchdowns and they were running the ball, and then
Speaker 7: somehow we don't run the ball the rest of the game. Yeah,
Speaker 7: it blows, but you get beat and it happens. So
Speaker 7: now Michigan's just got to go finish the job.
Speaker 4: I think it was interesting how Nick Saban, like, if
Speaker 4: you give it five sacks in the first half, after
Speaker 4: the third sack the kids running for his life. I
Speaker 4: just don't understand why a coach arguably the best college
Speaker 4: football coach of all time right doesn't make a change
Speaker 4: there from a protection standpoint, getting another guy in there
Speaker 4: in protection, getting a tight end, keeping the back end
Speaker 4: more and just making a little more simple for mill Row,
Speaker 4: like give him some easy throws to complete either they
Speaker 4: were either trying to take shots or run.
Speaker 2: And then the third quarter like it opens back up.
Speaker 4: Michigan has done an amazing job in the third quarter
Speaker 4: of outscoring their opponents. There's a crazy statistic on that.
Speaker 4: But they ran the ball well and then they would
Speaker 4: go to throat and complete pass well. Then they get
Speaker 4: another chunk play for ten eleven yards and it's like
Speaker 4: you can see the key to the the Pats to
Speaker 4: success for Alabama was just running the ball until they
Speaker 4: said stop. Yep, that's that's I think that's just where
Speaker 4: it was, like third.
Speaker 2: And longs like that, and there you guys are just
Speaker 2: running the ball on third and long.
Speaker 7: Like second and long and third long. Happened too much
Speaker 7: for Alabama on offense and yeah, like if you're who's
Speaker 7: the who's the OC Tommy Reese.
Speaker 5: Tommy Reese sabing, like you know, you just gotta be
Speaker 5: disappointed because they're talking about it coming out of halftime.
Speaker 2: But the old line was just missing on some of
Speaker 2: these uh on some of.
Speaker 5: These blitzers or just getting beat because uh Milroe is
Speaker 5: not a cat, Like I don't mind him taking shots.
Speaker 5: But then there's sometimes where they might have a guy
Speaker 5: open and he's not even able to get the ball
Speaker 5: because somebody's in his face. I can't read back, gets
Speaker 5: across the face, late tackle, kind of doesn't know what
Speaker 5: to do. He gets smacked like there were so many
Speaker 5: like third and longstor with him.
Speaker 7: There weren't a lot of opportunity for him to make
Speaker 7: a second read because he had to get it out.
Speaker 5: That's where I think Milroe he wasn't hitting everything like
Speaker 5: he That's that's what hurt. He's not like an accurate well.
Speaker 2: There was no flow to the offense.
Speaker 7: Every play was starting from scratch, it felt like, And
Speaker 7: that's why I think that Michigan game play in the
Speaker 7: first half with bringing heat early, don't let him get
Speaker 7: comfortable kind of thing. I think going into half, we yeah,
Speaker 7: are lucky that it's only a three point game. I
Speaker 7: thought Michigan going in at half being excited to have
Speaker 7: the lead and us being pissed off was really gonna
Speaker 7: work in our favorite in the second half.
Speaker 2: And it almost.
Speaker 5: Controlling the second half for the most part. There's just
Speaker 5: no points getting put on the board. It's like Michigan
Speaker 5: felt dominated the first half, but it was only thirteen
Speaker 5: to ten.
Speaker 2: Exactly.
Speaker 7: That's what made me feel good because it wasn't a
Speaker 7: great ball and it was only a three point game.
Speaker 7: And then yeah, when we score or when we kick
Speaker 7: three to go or no, when we score, you go
Speaker 7: seventeen to ten. I was like, all right, here we go.
Speaker 7: Now the defense just gotta play defense. But great game
Speaker 7: playing on offense too. The pre snap shit is like,
Speaker 7: you know.
Speaker 2: The pre snap motions and shifts were next level.
Speaker 7: Well, the bunch, I mean, the first touchdown for Blake
Speaker 7: Korum is the best I told you this earlier is
Speaker 7: the best play Goff ever seen out of Why everyone
Speaker 7: doesn't do this? You have three wide receivers run basically
Speaker 7: the same route on different levels. It builds a wall
Speaker 7: for whoever's guarding the running back to fight through.
Speaker 2: You're talking about the first touchdown, Yeah.
Speaker 7: And you gotta somehow you got a match speed with Blake.
Speaker 7: It's like that's a touchdown. He didn't get touched.
Speaker 5: Yeah, but if the backers have better eyes the other backer,
Speaker 5: well that's where that's where thirty two was pointing right
Speaker 5: right when he goes across right away, like hey you
Speaker 5: you but he got his eyes to the bunch.
Speaker 2: Second half adjustment.
Speaker 7: They Fama reacted quicker to that stuff, prestat, I think,
Speaker 7: and that's what helped kind of slow that down a
Speaker 7: little bit. But then as the game went on that
Speaker 7: that fourth and two, that was my least favorite situation
Speaker 7: of the entire game.
Speaker 2: When we got the stop.
Speaker 7: On third down, was like, all right, four downs even
Speaker 7: worse than third town, Like this sucks.
Speaker 4: Yeah, And you brought up a good point to in
Speaker 4: the beginning, like I didn't know. I looked up JJ
Speaker 4: stats after the game and two thirty three touchdowns, sixty
Speaker 4: six percent completion. Yeah, that in because I was watching
Speaker 4: the game and they were playing these big replays, and
Speaker 4: I told you it was like the third quarter, we're
Speaker 4: backed up inside the ten and there's a tight end.
Speaker 4: He goes and he just has like a little hitch
Speaker 4: and he's blanketed by the linebacker. Goes as a linebacker
Speaker 4: and it's obvious like he's it was broken up immediately.
Speaker 4: Well on the far side of the field with the
Speaker 4: one receiver he had separation from you to me where
Speaker 4: you put it right there, that's an ex play getting you,
Speaker 4: getting you towards midfield. And there just seemed like there
Speaker 4: were some plays here and there, You're like, yo, what
Speaker 4: is going on? There was a there was a deeper
Speaker 4: play where receiver had great separation, came back to the ball,
Speaker 4: but the ball was just a little too high overthrown
Speaker 4: a little too high, but incredibly impressive, the poise, incredibly
Speaker 4: impressedive the poison.
Speaker 2: Be able to fight and fight through that.
Speaker 4: That play right there with Roman Wilson at the end
Speaker 4: of the game, like with like two minutes left, got tipped.
Speaker 4: That was a pick, dude, that was a pick and
Speaker 4: it was just for him to go up and get that.
Speaker 4: And that is right after right after he had the
Speaker 4: block in the back call yeah, which I think is
Speaker 4: just makes it better. This is the best part about
Speaker 4: Michigan when I watched I didn't watch all of Texas
Speaker 4: in Washington, but when mistakes were happening on Alabama or
Speaker 4: Texas or Washington, you could see like safety's like there
Speaker 4: was one where one guy slipped out towards the Michigan
Speaker 4: sideline and they didn't do a good job of exchanging it.
Speaker 4: The safety starts to go back and even before the
Speaker 4: play's over, he's already putting his hands up and then
Speaker 4: running to it.
Speaker 2: When plays were happening.
Speaker 4: I didn't see one time like a palms up type
Speaker 4: of bad body and language thing.
Speaker 2: And it's kind of to me.
Speaker 5: That's just that's just cool culture. That's a cool culture deal.
Speaker 4: And it just fired me up, bro, Like this shit
Speaker 4: just fired me out that they're legit good because we
Speaker 4: all had doubts, Like, I mean, you guys obviously all
Speaker 4: picked Alabama, like even going into I mean going into
Speaker 4: the game, I'm having doubts. I'm like, man, what if
Speaker 4: you see Big Ten just getting smopped all over the
Speaker 4: floor Penn State, Ohio State, Iowa shout out jack and
Speaker 4: there and their big win, Like you just think, man,
Speaker 4: we are Maybe we're just a bad, bad conference.
Speaker 2: Which I would now argue that conference.
Speaker 5: Well, I think if Ohio State has all their has
Speaker 5: their quarterback, has their wide receivers play, if Penn State
Speaker 5: has any of their guys play like, it's a different
Speaker 5: ball game.
Speaker 2: It's a different ballgame. Now.
Speaker 4: Do I think the Bay ten should take credit for Michigan? No,
Speaker 4: I think the Bag ten doesn't deserve to take credit
Speaker 4: for Michigan. They tried everything they could to ruin Michigan,
Speaker 4: So the Big Ten doesn't deserve Michigan. The Big Ten,
Speaker 4: in my opinion, is over and bowl games except for Maryland.
Speaker 4: Maryland is the best team in the Big Ten right now.
Speaker 2: Minnesota won their bowl game. Minnesota is in a BOL game.
Speaker 2: Who they play.
Speaker 5: Bowling Green?
Speaker 2: Maybe no, at the ball club out there, Bowling Green, Bowling.
Speaker 4: Green gave Michigan fits.
Speaker 5: Let's see what here, Northwestern over Utah. Okay, it's a
Speaker 5: big it's a wild win. Minnesota for bowling Green, Rutgers
Speaker 5: over Miami.
Speaker 2: What now? How many all right.
Speaker 5: At Big ten West took care of business at Big
Speaker 5: ten West?
Speaker 2: How many Big ten matchups? What was the outcome al
Speaker 2: the bate ten SEC matchups?
Speaker 6: Whole Miss beats Penn State, Auburn beats I mean sorry,
Speaker 6: Maryland beats Auburn, LSU beats Wisconsin, Tennessee beats Iowa, and
Speaker 6: then obviously Michigan beats two and three.
Speaker 2: This would be yeah, into one game up, yeah, man,
Speaker 2: I mean yeah, the Big Ten.
Speaker 4: Just I I just can't believe that they tried to
Speaker 4: do that in the middle of the season. That's crazy.
Speaker 4: What to spend harball, no due process, the whole thing.
Speaker 4: And now we're saying that Ohio State's packing into catapults
Speaker 4: and all that.
Speaker 2: Yes, zero integrity out in your guys's division.
Speaker 4: Yeah, we were about to be independent. I hope we're independent.
Speaker 4: I think that'd be a crazy, a crazy switch up.
Speaker 5: But I mean many people were trying to take you
Speaker 5: guys down because y'all cheated for several weeks.
Speaker 4: Shout out the kids, dude, Shout out the University of
Speaker 4: Michigan players. When everybody's when everybody's talking shit, everybody's like
Speaker 4: the mainstream media and will Comfon are all saying that
Speaker 4: there are a bunch of cheaters and to go and
Speaker 4: still take care of business with all the university with
Speaker 4: that's your head coach in the field and your biggest games.
Speaker 4: That that says so much about the culture. Absolutely, that
Speaker 4: is insane. To not like waiver or get distracted like
Speaker 4: that is very very rare to see a team stick
Speaker 4: together like that, and that is just cool.
Speaker 2: That's a national title team.
Speaker 4: They just seem like they just seem like a team
Speaker 4: that like literally, I feel like they all go to
Speaker 4: the bar together when.
Speaker 5: When I was known, they're probably like, hey, we got
Speaker 5: one left, we ain't going.
Speaker 2: To the bar together. I like that.
Speaker 5: I like that, like the twenty twelve Michigan. No, they
Speaker 5: are not them boys. Let's go to yeah, win and lose.
Speaker 5: We were still boozing and it was mostly losing.
Speaker 7: It was tough out There are the uh the two
Speaker 7: white guys on the D line for Michigan.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Graham and that McGregor's can we.
Speaker 7: Get those guys on the all white team?
Speaker 2: Salty cat.
Speaker 5: R D line is set? Well we need depth, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 5: we got depth like the line. Well, we could use
Speaker 5: use of guys on the inside.
Speaker 4: You know that uh, that seventeen kid was the one
Speaker 4: that was messing with us at springball.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yeah, he's the one who jumped in the
Speaker 5: fucking bush. He was a crazy, crazy mother. I was
Speaker 5: fired up when he had that sack like the opening
Speaker 5: drive because I want to say Bama might have scored them,
Speaker 5: but uh had already scored them. But I thought they
Speaker 5: came out. They came out like putting it to that
Speaker 5: offensive line.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 4: I did not see that coming because they really didn't
Speaker 4: have that type of like the success against offensive lines
Speaker 4: in the Big Ten. I thought, man, it's gonna be
Speaker 4: tough to get pressure. There's some big boys over there.
Speaker 5: At the Crimson time, there they are average, bigger than
Speaker 5: every NFL offensive line. Yeah, he said on the broadcast,
Speaker 5: how slow are you if you're that big?
Speaker 2: How you feel about the National title against Washington? I
Speaker 2: feel nervous, I do.
Speaker 4: It's crazy to me that Washington is one of those
Speaker 4: teams too that have played in so many games being
Speaker 4: underdogs and they just continue to win.
Speaker 2: It's just they win.
Speaker 4: It's nuts, bro. The point underdogs again against Michigan. There
Speaker 4: are four point underdogs against Texas. They are underdogs against
Speaker 4: Oregon twice.
Speaker 2: Like, he's just crazy. I think they're underdogs against USC
Speaker 2: and maybe even Utah at one point, Oregon State.
Speaker 5: Like, dude, that Pennix kid, they just do survive that
Speaker 5: the Oregon State game. But yeah, yeah, yeah, the the
Speaker 5: entire year.
Speaker 4: Winning, they just they're they're not only surviving, they're thriving.
Speaker 4: And so that kid watching that first half against Texas,
Speaker 4: because I thought Texas was gonna run away with it.
Speaker 4: I thought Texas was gonna win. It was gonna be
Speaker 4: Texas and Michigan.
Speaker 2: But watching Pennix where he was putting the ball when
Speaker 2: there was when there was pressure, him just kind of
Speaker 2: moving to the side and handling his pocket presence and
Speaker 2: ripping it running when he had to run it like
Speaker 2: just very elite football. Elite football.
Speaker 7: When I was watching their offense, was like, why couldn't
Speaker 7: we just operate on offens?
Speaker 2: Like if they could score.
Speaker 5: Any moment, Oh, no, doubt have that.
Speaker 2: That game comes down to the quarterback.
Speaker 5: Sucked that that last play had to be that play call.
Speaker 5: That's how that's how much you like for which one?
Speaker 2: Oh yeah yeah yeah yeah, that was way yeah.
Speaker 4: And he didn't even like get crazy celebrate, like start
Speaker 4: running the field at first.
Speaker 2: He's just like, do you fucking try that on me? Yeah?
Speaker 2: Like it out of that ball. Imagine if you missed.
Speaker 2: That was wild. But Washington, dude, their operation towards the
Speaker 2: end the game was terrible.
Speaker 4: I was watching a little bit, like the last few
Speaker 4: minutes of the game, they get their running back hurt
Speaker 4: and they should have just took a knee. Would have
Speaker 4: been twelve seconds on the clock, twenty seconds in clock,
Speaker 4: whatever it was. They decided to run it and they
Speaker 4: get stopped. Then the running backs injured, so the the
Speaker 4: clack has to stop and they almost lost.
Speaker 5: I'll tell you what, they they better strap up for
Speaker 5: the Michigan running game.
Speaker 2: They're I mean, it's a totally it's a totally different
Speaker 2: game play Alabama.
Speaker 5: The just because Bama Michigan was just like a fun
Speaker 5: matchup to watch, like built similar physical teams.
Speaker 2: Going back and forth.
Speaker 5: Like it felt like the Texas Washington game was a
Speaker 5: lot more like Washington's more finesse than everything else.
Speaker 2: So it'd be cool to kind of Washington Michigan game
Speaker 2: could be like a shootout.
Speaker 5: It could maybe be similar. Maybe shoot out. You got
Speaker 5: to give the edge to Washington.
Speaker 4: If it turns into a shootout, you would assume edge
Speaker 4: Washington because of the way they're able to put the
Speaker 4: ball where they are Michigan. The way Michigan wins is
Speaker 4: on the ground, taking their shots when they need them and.
Speaker 2: Playing incredible defense.
Speaker 4: Cause to think you're going to get the pressure on
Speaker 4: Pennix the way you did Alabama, it's they They have
Speaker 4: the Joe Moore Award winning offensive line. Like their offense
Speaker 4: line is well put together, their tackles are well put together.
Speaker 4: They do a great job of communication. They handle the
Speaker 4: games that Texas is throwing at them. So I don't know,
Speaker 4: this would be more a question for you. I don't
Speaker 4: know if it's like, hey, you keep a similar game
Speaker 4: plan of like hey we're rushing five, we're bringing a
Speaker 4: fifth guy every time, or you're putting four and hoping
Speaker 4: your games kind of work out and then get guys
Speaker 4: in the backhand to cover up.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 5: I don't like if you're like Michigan. To me, they
Speaker 5: just did a good job kind of being like, hey,
Speaker 5: we're gonna apply pressure, like when you feel like it's situational. Uh,
Speaker 5: Penix is a lot better than Milrow. Milrow, you know
Speaker 5: you can plus as long as you get it, as
Speaker 5: long as you get in his face and get pressure
Speaker 5: on him. Penix, you might have to have more guys
Speaker 5: in coverage and let your you let your four go
Speaker 5: hunt because the four that's going on hunt now, like
Speaker 5: they're they're they're good ballplayers, good ball players, and they
Speaker 5: have a great rotation keeping guys fresh. Yeah, and it's
Speaker 5: not like anybody gets real stagnant. Like you see pressure
Speaker 5: coming up the middle, you see pressure coming from inside, outside,
Speaker 5: all of it. So I think they're gonna have to
Speaker 5: do a good job of getting home with four to
Speaker 5: keep as many as they can and coverage.
Speaker 2: I agree, because if not Penix Ol, I think they
Speaker 2: play he'll be played a zone.
Speaker 7: I mean, maybe I'm wrong they played zone in the
Speaker 7: back end and then let guys go eat. I don't
Speaker 7: know if you can do the zone against Pinnix because
Speaker 7: those receivers will sit down with him getting rid of
Speaker 7: it that fast.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it'll be it'll just be a lot different.
Speaker 5: Like the game plan is going to be so much different,
Speaker 5: like you saw with Alabama, Like they sent so much
Speaker 5: pressure to the side of the back, like you you
Speaker 5: can dictate pressure going to the tight end, to the
Speaker 5: open side, to the back, away from the back, to
Speaker 5: the passing strength to the weak side. Like with the
Speaker 5: Michigan they're doing a lot of it to the backside,
Speaker 5: just because all that zone regame. That's why, that's why
Speaker 5: there are so many negative plays Like Melroe if he
Speaker 5: keeps said he's getting hit because you got to you
Speaker 5: got somebody coming off the edge where he doesn't do
Speaker 5: a good job of getting it out to the perimeter
Speaker 5: once he sees that edge rusher coming, you know what
Speaker 5: I mean. Like, if you have that, if you have
Speaker 5: like that, if you have like that run pass option
Speaker 5: to where it's zone reading, you're reading the end, but
Speaker 5: you're also have the option to throw it out wide.
Speaker 5: The minute you see that edge guy coming off the edge,
Speaker 5: you would hit that receiver. He would slow a couple
Speaker 5: of times getting it out like one uh not. The
Speaker 5: number three got rocked one play because he got it
Speaker 5: out to him late off that cat blitz random and
Speaker 5: that was a great play by the defense too. Yeah,
Speaker 5: absolutely breaking down. Yeah, they had really good And that's
Speaker 5: another thing too. The back end of Michigan did a
Speaker 5: great job open field tackling like there'd be white except
Speaker 5: for that first one where they wanted to nuts. But
Speaker 5: you know, you get back any you could easily fall
Speaker 5: into the tank there. But they did a good job
Speaker 5: like making plays in the open field against like guys
Speaker 5: that are on Alabama.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I like that was a crazy move. The only
Speaker 4: better move I've seen was the LSU Florida game that
Speaker 4: kid blew his knee out. We saw that that move
Speaker 4: was nuts and then it ended up you know, happened
Speaker 4: the way it happened.
Speaker 2: But my god, the feel better. You feel better about
Speaker 2: Washington then than Bama.
Speaker 5: You have to write, Yeah, I gotta feel like a
Speaker 5: massive monkeys off your back because you beat se Bama squad.
Speaker 5: You couldn't get out of the first round of the playoffs.
Speaker 5: You finally get out of the first round of the
Speaker 5: playoffs again spam in the SEC. So I feel like
Speaker 5: you're kind of playing with house money. You want the Natty,
Speaker 5: you want the Natty.
Speaker 4: To me, this based on all the allegations, everything you
Speaker 4: just said, everything correct. Like I I do feel like
Speaker 4: this massive cyber relief being able to walk in here
Speaker 4: and essentially just be like you got I mean, you
Speaker 4: guys all did bet against it, and I get it.
Speaker 4: I completely understand why. But it's just it's a nice
Speaker 4: feeling to be able to walk in and feel that
Speaker 4: type of way. But with all the allegations, all the
Speaker 4: stuff with Harble and stuff like that, the only way
Speaker 4: this movie ends as a blockbuster hit is with Michigan
Speaker 4: winning the national championship. That's the only that's the only
Speaker 4: way because all the they and I know you said
Speaker 4: it's objective of the whether it's tainted or not, subjective,
Speaker 4: subjective whatever. To me, it's like when you win, when
Speaker 4: you win this game, there's just no one can say anything.
Speaker 4: You can try, but you really can't say a fucking thing.
Speaker 5: No matter what you guys will be in the history
Speaker 5: books as the national as the national champion. No matter
Speaker 5: what exactly, be a faded, there'll be an asterisk in there.
Speaker 2: And that's right.
Speaker 4: People will haters will bring that up. But you can
Speaker 4: also say all these allegations came up in the middle
Speaker 4: of the season. These players had every reason the cash
Speaker 4: it in not stick together, have the excuses like Florida State,
Speaker 4: and they like Florida State.
Speaker 5: We'll get to them.
Speaker 2: My god. Yeah, that talk about a bad culture. It's bad.
Speaker 4: But then every opportunity to do that and fold and
Speaker 4: they literally just took on the persona of their head coach,
Speaker 4: not really answering the media questions. Yeah, like these guys,
Speaker 4: these guys look at this guy and don't look at me,
Speaker 4: look at this guy, look at that guy.
Speaker 2: Like that's like, you know what it's like to be.
Speaker 5: In a no question like legitimately culture insane culture, legitimately both
Speaker 5: things can be true, you know what I mean. Like
Speaker 5: it's it's not like the players are all you guys
Speaker 5: chet it. So there's a lot of stuff going on
Speaker 5: outside the locker room. That's everybody's trying to investigate you
Speaker 5: this and that, Like all that stuff can be true.
Speaker 5: While this team is has built the cult so that
Speaker 5: it has to kind of like go against all that
Speaker 5: all year long.
Speaker 2: Because it was Michigan versus everybody.
Speaker 5: I think even in that game as was unfolding, it's
Speaker 5: kind of I know, for me, it was like it
Speaker 5: was harder to root against Michigan because of the cats
Speaker 5: like Blake and Yeah and all those guys that are
Speaker 5: like staying poison going. Because we sat with Blake and
Speaker 5: listened to him and it's like, now they're in the
Speaker 5: national title.
Speaker 2: But if you look back on when we were sitting
Speaker 2: down with him.
Speaker 5: Like you could legit be like yo that it's like
Speaker 5: a national that's a national title running back mindset, right. Yeah,
Speaker 5: So it's just kind of like cool to see and
Speaker 5: then he got the touch on everything else. I was like,
Speaker 5: fuck but it you know, it's yeah, it's like, hats
Speaker 5: off to Michigan. They've been they've been dealing with the
Speaker 5: shit all year long.
Speaker 4: And Trevor not Trevor King and Zach z Inter being
Speaker 4: out too. Yeah, him just staying there on that belly
Speaker 4: and they're miss and they handled. Because that was my
Speaker 4: biggest word going into it, is like you're missing essentially
Speaker 4: your leader, one of the best players in your team,
Speaker 4: projected first round pick, and they went and fucking handled it.
Speaker 2: Dude. That's the thing that fires me up the most
Speaker 2: is the culture of the team. It's so cool.
Speaker 4: Did they're not blaming any They're focused, they're they're giving
Speaker 4: praise to other people, and hardball is the perfect villain
Speaker 4: for like this whole scenario.
Speaker 5: You yeah, now, but you almost enjoy watching, Like I
Speaker 5: love when the cameras on when all the big plays
Speaker 5: were happening, because you see like he's in the moment, like,
Speaker 5: y know, we are in a war. Yeah, and plays
Speaker 5: got to kind of just go your way, like you
Speaker 5: have the muff punt the pick, but then it goes
Speaker 5: back the other way. But you're seeing your guys get
Speaker 5: home on on sat like on pressures, getting sacks, making
Speaker 5: those plays in the open field, and you just slowly
Speaker 5: see him smiling and fist pumping like there's a lot
Speaker 5: of ball left, but fuck, we are taking care of business.
Speaker 5: Yes for that play. Yeah, it's just like fun to
Speaker 5: watch truly present in the moment, and that just that
Speaker 5: fires me up. There no body that was awesome.
Speaker 2: And then the video if you see his dad, Yeah,
Speaker 2: it was so funny. Bro our Ball Senior. Should we

Speaker 5: Like promoting jas trainer, but better if.
Speaker 2: I got half of an ad there.
Speaker 4: Yeah dude, Yeah, But going back to uh, Michigan and Washington,
Speaker 4: it's a completely different game.
Speaker 2: Now, Yeah, we'll play.
Speaker 4: You're playing a completely different personnel, a better quarterback, a
Speaker 4: good offensive line, receivers that have the confidence to go
Speaker 4: get it done. A team that also has been counted
Speaker 4: out multiple times this year to lose, and you're going
Speaker 4: against like two teams that essentially, in one way or
Speaker 4: another thing you hit it on.
Speaker 5: College fall playoff, got it right, like got it right right,
Speaker 5: like two great games. The two undefeated teams, the one
Speaker 5: and two seed are playing for the national title. Like
Speaker 5: you couldn't have you couldn't have put it together any
Speaker 5: better than that.
Speaker 2: Let me as see this Devil's advocate Georgia.
Speaker 5: No, I mean yeah, Georgia mopped the floor with fucking
Speaker 5: Florida State, and Florida State fans were so pissed because
Speaker 5: and they're right, I didn't know that they had a
Speaker 5: billion people opt out, get injured, all that stuff.
Speaker 2: I just saw the score.
Speaker 5: I saw those sixties through the three, and I'm just thinking,
Speaker 5: holy fuck, they got their asses mopped. But given all
Speaker 5: the opt outs, all the injuries, everything else suing this
Speaker 5: that the other. Like at the end of the day,
Speaker 5: the cars that were dealt to you were dealt to you.
Speaker 5: You either got to accept that shit, strap up and
Speaker 5: get ready to go play. Give them middle finger to
Speaker 5: everybody because you were playing against a great team like Georgia,
Speaker 5: Like it's it wasn't like you were going, uh, who's
Speaker 5: another team that had like an easy game where it's like, oh,
Speaker 5: they didn't belong in this bowl game.
Speaker 2: Better organ Liberty, Liberty. It wasn't like you're playing Liberty.
Speaker 5: No disrespect to you, Liberty.
Speaker 2: Yeah, is what it is.
Speaker 5: But you got to still play against a true contender,
Speaker 5: and that's a game that you still get up for,
Speaker 5: whether or not the backups are in whatever the case
Speaker 5: may be. You got to play against Georgia, one of
Speaker 5: the best teams in the past five years, maybe arguably
Speaker 5: the best team in the past five years, and in
Speaker 5: the Georgia Bulldogs and you you just you pack it
Speaker 5: in and you bitch and you can plain and you
Speaker 5: do this and it's.
Speaker 2: Not fair and blah blah blah. All that can be true.
Speaker 5: But no matter what, you could still have the opportunity
Speaker 5: to strap up and play a New Year's Day Bowl.
Speaker 2: That game, you shit the.
Speaker 4: Bet that game was over before when it got announced
Speaker 4: because the Florida State was so focused on getting away
Speaker 4: from the acc and filing lawsuits.
Speaker 2: And crying wars.
Speaker 5: We're not I'm opting out.
Speaker 2: At the end of the day.
Speaker 4: We know the structure of college football has changed. However,
Speaker 4: it's still a Gladiators game. It's still a best on best.
Speaker 4: There's still pride and ego and fight involved in every
Speaker 4: single game. And if you are going to treat the
Speaker 4: game of football like that, you deserve to get you're
Speaker 4: ass blowing out sixty three to three. You guys want
Speaker 4: to opt out, get ready for the NFL draft, that is,
Speaker 4: that's that's great, go ahead and do that, But it
Speaker 4: just seem like Florida State didn't give a fuck.
Speaker 5: And my question too, is like, and I don't know
Speaker 5: this answer, but you would assume Georgia probably has a
Speaker 5: lot of guys on that ross who could opt out
Speaker 5: or not playing the game.
Speaker 2: I think Brock Bauers was out. I think their best one.
Speaker 2: He was kind of dinged up.
Speaker 5: And Brock is somebody like if you're a prime time
Speaker 5: NFL guy, like, that's where those decisions should get made.
Speaker 5: But you're mid later round like and you're opting out
Speaker 5: of bulls, X, Y, and Z, that's where it's that's
Speaker 5: where it gets softer for me.
Speaker 4: That's taking the easy road out right and not accepting
Speaker 4: the challenge. If you're a third, fourth, fifth, second, third,
Speaker 4: if you're not in the first round, like, obviously one
Speaker 4: hundred percent you're gonna go to New York and you're
Speaker 4: gonna get drafted. Seeing there in the green room, that
Speaker 4: bowl game is an opportunity to go against different and
Speaker 4: probably better talent than you have. Absolutely to answer the
Speaker 4: bell because the the because the reason why you're opting
Speaker 4: out is you're happy with your your body of work,
Speaker 4: but you're scared about taking on a new challenge and
Speaker 4: hurting your draft stock as opposed to I'm gonna body
Speaker 4: These guys risk, yeah, the risk of injuries.
Speaker 5: There's stuff out there, like the old miss quarterback when
Speaker 5: he his but there, yeah, there there are several stories.
Speaker 5: But to your point, like if you're not getting because
Speaker 5: I want to say, they give out more first round
Speaker 5: grades than who the guys who get drafted, right, like
Speaker 5: say fifty first round grades and only you know thirty
Speaker 5: of them.
Speaker 4: My junior my junior year, when I put in my
Speaker 4: draft thing, they told me like, hey, we don't know
Speaker 4: what's gonna say, but these are usually very conservative. So
Speaker 4: you're not it's gonna look worse than it is.
Speaker 5: Got you type of thing if you are, Like if
Speaker 5: you're a mid round cat and you're opting out, like
Speaker 5: you do get the opt to play against again Georgia,
Speaker 5: to put on film like against NFL caliber players because
Speaker 5: you're training for the combine extra few weeks of training
Speaker 5: for the combine isn't gonna do, Dick bro No, Like
Speaker 5: the combine sounds great, it's fantasy football, like it sounds great,
Speaker 5: like we were all brain rushed for PROD for the
Speaker 5: X y Z. But the minute the combine and the
Speaker 5: pro DA's are over, it doesn't matter anymore. In the
Speaker 5: in the UH PROTA combine stuff is like twenty percent
Speaker 5: of the full picture. Like you're basically leaning on your
Speaker 5: tape from calls and everything else. Then you want to
Speaker 5: match the tape to hey, how do they test? Where
Speaker 5: is there what's their discipline? Like let's get let's talk
Speaker 5: to their references, their coaches, everybody around them to get
Speaker 5: to know them. But people who are thinking that you
Speaker 5: got to train the extra like I gotta go, I
Speaker 5: gotta get a leg up, like I'm I promise you
Speaker 5: that it does not matter in the.
Speaker 4: I agree with most of that, by I think the
Speaker 4: percentage is a little high, even for twenty percent being
Speaker 4: the combine. If the combine to me is you're right.
Speaker 4: The film is what's gonna get you drafted. The combine
Speaker 4: is something more than just checking boxes. Hey is he
Speaker 4: fast enough?
Speaker 5: Yes?
Speaker 2: Or no? Are you seeing the combines lower percent? It's
Speaker 2: a lower percent. Okay, I'm on board with that.
Speaker 5: I about say it was more locking, bro, you were
Speaker 5: dogging dudes like you, you run fast, you show up,
Speaker 5: you do all the things right then, yeah, like like
Speaker 5: you're saying right now, yeah, you need to go.
Speaker 2: And check boxes.
Speaker 4: Now, if you're an outstanding athlete and you're able to
Speaker 4: exceed that, it's gonna help you. But at the end
Speaker 4: of the day, it's like off it's line. You get
Speaker 4: more than twenty five reps on bench, Yes, check the box.
Speaker 4: Everything after that, he's strong enough, you're forty. What's your ten?
Speaker 2: Is he fast enough? Or is the slowest?
Speaker 5: Shit?
Speaker 4: Okay, check the box. Didn't check the box, see the speed.
Speaker 4: But the most important thing in the combine is not
Speaker 4: even on the field. It's in the meeting rooms. How
Speaker 4: your mind is processing a high pressure situation with these coaches,
Speaker 4: these gms. Things you thought about since you were a
Speaker 4: little kid. Getting all nervous as you're sitting in front
Speaker 4: of a you know, Mike Vrabel and these other these
Speaker 4: other NFL coaches you've been watching since you were a kid,
Speaker 4: and if.
Speaker 5: You're a lower round can say you opt out to
Speaker 5: do all that stuff and you happen to go to
Speaker 5: the combine. I can see a question these days being like,
Speaker 5: why'd you opt out for the bowl game?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 5: Against a team like you know, I'm using floorter say
Speaker 5: as the example, but against the team like George and
Speaker 5: how that gets handled. This probably a look into the
Speaker 5: cookie jar, because if you don't, if say, you don't
Speaker 5: bench twenty five, then you're gonna be talking to the
Speaker 5: strengths and you're gonna be talking to.
Speaker 2: The coaches why this that?
Speaker 5: Yeah, then it might be justified why he doesn't get
Speaker 5: twenty five, Like he still plays with he plays with
Speaker 5: tremendous leverage, X, Y and Z, same with the forty,
Speaker 5: all that type of stuff you can tell on tape,
Speaker 5: like if that is, if he's faster than what he
Speaker 5: just showed at the combine or if he kind of
Speaker 5: outperformed or surprised you a little bit more. Uh.
Speaker 4: The bench press too is kind of a facade because
Speaker 4: you how many times you've been in the locker room
Speaker 4: in Lincoln Nebraska, and you see some guys that look
Speaker 4: like Tarzan are strong as shit, but they don't doesn't
Speaker 4: translate on the field, Like the guard for the Bengals.
Speaker 4: Somebody told me this. I didn't even I don't even
Speaker 4: know if this is a real thing or not. But Kappa,
Speaker 4: I believe his name is the kid that was saying
Speaker 4: fu Nashville when he was walking off the field a
Speaker 4: couple of years ago. He got like below twenty, like
Speaker 4: a really bad bench press. He's playing in the league
Speaker 4: and he's handled himself at a relatively good level for
Speaker 4: a long time. So these things that correlate, it's like
Speaker 4: you're checking boxes and what are your mentals? Like that
Speaker 4: is that's all the combine is. It is not as
Speaker 4: big of a deal as you think it is. You
Speaker 4: look the mainstream, you look at the NFL networks and
Speaker 4: they're putting up the biggest, you know, job.
Speaker 2: Interview of your life. Yeah it's a job interview and
Speaker 2: it's big, but it is the most important thing at
Speaker 2: the moment moment.
Speaker 4: But as soon as that, as soon as you finish,
Speaker 4: you take your cleats off, after you're doing with everything,
Speaker 4: it no longer matters, and you get another opportunity. You'd say,
Speaker 4: you're forty, didn't go the way you want, You got
Speaker 4: a pro day coming up to go get that done.
Speaker 3: I think the agents are to blame for a lot
Speaker 3: of that. They are because it's all for those low
Speaker 3: round guys. They don't have the as highly talented agents.
Speaker 3: And you know they're sitting there telling them, hey, don't
Speaker 3: get hurt, this is where you're gonna go, and just
Speaker 3: lying to them because they know they're gonna get paid.
Speaker 5: You know, it's one on one at that point, they
Speaker 5: can infiltrate their mind thinking like this is not Look,
Speaker 5: it's all about getting you to prota a combine. Do
Speaker 5: you think by one game you're gonna elevate your stock
Speaker 5: that much? If the answer is no, like, hey, you
Speaker 5: really need to do what's in the best interest of
Speaker 5: you and only you. You've you've the last four or
Speaker 5: five years, you've you've sacrificed for the brand, for the
Speaker 5: logo and everything else. You've done your stuff. You're not
Speaker 5: playing for the national title game like you have to think.
Speaker 5: Now you are a business going into the NFL. Is
Speaker 5: it worth YadA, YadA, X, Y and Z. And that's
Speaker 5: how you know I would assume these agents kind of
Speaker 5: infiltrate their mind for a second.
Speaker 7: Well, you hope that that kind of ends now that
Speaker 7: we go to twelve team playoffs, you would hope that that.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but you see thirteen fourteen, fifteen sixteen. Yeah, there's
Speaker 4: always gonna be a lot that gray area of who
Speaker 4: didn't get in and then you're gonna run into four states.
Speaker 5: They were I don't know if you listened to yesterday morning,
Speaker 5: but on college game they were kind of talking about
Speaker 5: how the shift is gonna go in Kirk Kirk Street
Speaker 5: as he is like pro Bowl, Like he wants bowl games,
Speaker 5: but he's like, listen, if guys are up and down
Speaker 5: they don't want to do it, then just do away
Speaker 5: with the bowl games, Like, just focus on the playoff
Speaker 5: because you're still gonna get bowl games from there. I
Speaker 5: know there's a lot of big business that goes into it,
Speaker 5: but it is it's kind of like, you know what, basically,
Speaker 5: if you're not in the playoff, they're just like glorified
Speaker 5: exhibition games.
Speaker 4: Yeah, well you used to turn into because when we played,
Speaker 4: it was like you're in the Gator Bowl. You know,
Speaker 4: you're not fighting for anything special, right, but you're out
Speaker 4: there fighting because you're like, we gotta end this season
Speaker 4: in a high note, and there's all these like justifiable
Speaker 4: things in your mind telling you I gotta fucking go
Speaker 4: after it.
Speaker 5: Yeah, because if you're an underclassman or you still got
Speaker 5: another year you are trying to you're still trying to
Speaker 5: establish yourself. Say you ended on a bad note toward
Speaker 5: the end of the year, you get to kind of
Speaker 5: get back out there.
Speaker 7: I think those bowl games before the College Football Playoff
Speaker 7: had so much history to him too, so you were like,
Speaker 7: see guys win the Gator Bowl, and you're like, oh,
Speaker 7: we're gonna like, we gotta win the Gator Bowl. It
Speaker 7: was just cooler, you know, with the bowl games. But
Speaker 7: did you see what Kirby Smart said about or after
Speaker 7: the Florida State game about everyone needed to see what happened,
Speaker 7: like this is why it's important to play, because that's
Speaker 7: just unfair for those guys that went out there and
Speaker 7: had to do that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he made an incredible point.
Speaker 5: I would love to hear what his pitch was to
Speaker 5: all the guys where everybody's basically opting in to play.
Speaker 2: So many guys are playing, you know what I mean. Culture. Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 5: They're not saying that who's it coach and Orf Norvelle
Speaker 5: not saying that he's not like a great culture guy.
Speaker 5: But tell you, man, they just they you know it
Speaker 5: just they had too much low balled for them to
Speaker 5: just point the finger everywhere else. And I get it,
Speaker 5: I'd be pissed too. But the way this collswall playoff
Speaker 5: played out like they got it right. They got it right.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Florida State wouldn't have staid a chance versus any
Speaker 4: of the any of those teams that were in the playoffs.
Speaker 2: No, they wouldn't have.
Speaker 4: But a State example is a great example of Michigan
Speaker 4: because you see all the adversity, you see all the stuff,
Speaker 4: and then the culture difference seeing Michigan versus the Florida
Speaker 4: State stuff. They folded, they fold in this situation, and
Speaker 4: you obviously see the repercussions for all that versus Georgia
Speaker 4: as opposed to Michigan, who didn't let them the noise
Speaker 4: get in their ears. And that's there's a lot about
Speaker 4: the coaching.
Speaker 5: That's a good point. That's a fair point. You guys
Speaker 5: cheat it all right, and we win the national championship.
Speaker 5: That's just like a right off the shoulder. That has nothing.
Speaker 5: I am fired the fuck up for this game, dude. No,
Speaker 5: you should be the Michigan squad like, yeah, they're they're
Speaker 5: they're a great ball club.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think I am gonna go.
Speaker 4: I think so, right, But in my mind it's like
Speaker 4: a Monday as we film. Can I get back in time?
Speaker 4: The dude slips some picks on Tuesday? This situation, I
Speaker 4: might have to give you guys the burden dip Huh?
Speaker 5: I mean that Houston's closer now? Yeah, but you could
Speaker 5: drive back? You really about it? You drive back.
Speaker 2: Like I have to do that? But I think yeah,
Speaker 2: Dave and I were thinks about last night. I think
Speaker 2: we're gonna go. You're uh, your road dog. I'm a
Speaker 2: rocket road dog. I can get behind the wheel now.
Speaker 2: That would be nice. That would be nice. That would
Speaker 2: be Did he did? I didn't see his Twitter?
Speaker 4: But did he take the money he won from the
Speaker 4: Michiane game and put it on Washington?
Speaker 2: Washington?
Speaker 5: Bro?
Speaker 2: Could you imagine? Wait?
Speaker 5: What remember money he wanted and put it on Washington
Speaker 5: win last night?
Speaker 2: Washington?
Speaker 6: But I don't think he did.
Speaker 5: Yeah, he bet something, but it had to be yo,
Speaker 5: a million dollar bet hitting. Oh my god, I can't
Speaker 5: imagine I would do I was sitting there and well
Speaker 5: Man Cave last night sweating bullets, legs shaking, like just
Speaker 5: truly immersed in the game, and like two or three
Speaker 5: times I just thought, I cannot imagine what Dave is
Speaker 5: going through it Now.
Speaker 4: The question is can you do it again? Question is
Speaker 4: Dave Portnoy, can you do it again? Double the bet?
Speaker 5: You're welcome, fat boy. I shout out and texts say, hey, congratulations.
Speaker 5: Dave just responds, You're welcome, dude. That was an insane,
Speaker 5: insane game.
Speaker 2: It was.
Speaker 4: It gives you a lot of hope too, because you
Speaker 4: see the firepower of Washington. But then all the mistakes
Speaker 4: Michigan made. It's like, you clean them boys up, dude.
Speaker 4: You play a clean football game, just a well everyone
Speaker 4: does the scheme right, we run the ball efficiently, we
Speaker 4: take our shots when we need to handle the time
Speaker 4: of possession. You will be national champions. Yes, I'm already nervous.
Speaker 5: Man.
Speaker 2: Another great another great notch for this one.
Speaker 5: Saying that you guys are gonna win this game is
Speaker 5: like the whole schedule mess all year long too. Like
Speaker 5: I think Garrett was saying it. Somebody said it back there,
Speaker 5: like they'll have to play it. They'll have to do
Speaker 5: it back to back, next to the next week. Play
Speaker 5: good teams, great teams, back to back. So I think
Speaker 5: that also helps with the narrative all year long. That
Speaker 5: was getting fall like you guys have the easiest schedule. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 5: anything you kind of feel like, should we gotta, we
Speaker 5: gotta we got another one next week? Let's get back up,

Speaker 4: he's gonna get them right. I don't even know if
Speaker 4: Michigan has classes. Boys do not go to one class.

Speaker 4: they'll be on board for this. Yeah, lima, so and

Speaker 2: on the maning Cast.
Speaker 4: I know Will was actually trying to get the manning
Speaker 4: Cast photo changed and he takes me on the side, like, hey,
Speaker 4: you cool with that photo.
Speaker 2: I was like, hey, don't worry about it. We're good.
Speaker 2: I don't care.

Speaker 2: get it.
Speaker 5: Hey, your Instagram you you were posting I forget what
Speaker 5: I was probably the first quarter of first half year

Speaker 5: your arms up borrow.
Speaker 2: You're just oh a thicker boy.
Speaker 8: Man.
Speaker 5: It was just crazy because you weren't that thick then,
Speaker 5: Like you weren't like.
Speaker 4: I was like to eighty then to ninety, maybe like
Speaker 4: down twenty for my regular weight.
Speaker 5: There's nothing worse than having to be the person who
Speaker 5: I got both arms up, scrunching everything up. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 5: like trying to take a photo like that.
Speaker 2: I know, I literally found all those photos.
Speaker 4: I wanted to put them on in there, and I
Speaker 4: was like, I'll just do like quarterly posts and I
Speaker 4: finished utail and goes, why don't you just make a
Speaker 4: video and then just slide over. I was like, come Onthay,
Speaker 4: you know, I don't think about that kind of stuff.
Speaker 4: Your video is nice. How would that video take you
Speaker 4: to make?
Speaker 5: Oh a minute?
Speaker 2: Did it?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Yeah, man took me a nice man probably his entire nap?
Speaker 5: Oh for real?
Speaker 2: Yeah? How long was that nap? Us? A day, hour
Speaker 2: and a half?
Speaker 5: Two hours? Yeah, like a two hour nap. But like
Speaker 5: cause you have to go through I mean I do
Speaker 5: it in a bad way. I need to like add
Speaker 5: stuff to a folder like as I go. But I was,
Speaker 5: I like scrolled through videos of twenty twenty three and
Speaker 5: then I took like one hundred and forty and moved
Speaker 5: them into a folder, and then from there I just
Speaker 5: picked the ones that matched the song.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, I was banged up.
Speaker 5: Whatever night it was vitamins up up, up, lifted and
Speaker 5: I was listening to Green Day. Yeah good and listen
Speaker 5: to all the old school alternative rock chams from the
Speaker 5: two thousands, and I was just it was just in
Speaker 5: the zone thinking about boys from back in the day,
Speaker 5: to messaging them all, texting them all.
Speaker 2: Was that the night of the party?
Speaker 5: I can't remember.
Speaker 4: Oh, yeah, we got to talk about that party, the
Speaker 4: murder mystery party you put on.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Will surprised his wife Charo with a murder mystery party.
Speaker 2: Actors the whole thing.
Speaker 4: Like we show up, these actors are like fully bought
Speaker 4: in miss Like this guy's name is like mister d
Speaker 4: or something like that, and he's got another chick with him.
Speaker 4: And Will literally planned the entire thing to where Charles's
Speaker 4: friends flew in and then hit in the corner and
Speaker 4: then we're sitting there like what do we do, Like
Speaker 4: all go in the back when then they show up
Speaker 4: and it'll be like an empty room and the guy's gonna.
Speaker 2: Show him around.
Speaker 4: So Charles gets all excited, She's happy to see everybody.
Speaker 4: We get like around to start talking about the game,
Speaker 4: and he's like, let me bring out my assistance, more actors,
Speaker 4: blah blah blah. First one walks out, Charles s's her
Speaker 4: and like literally get goes into tears.
Speaker 2: She's so excited.
Speaker 4: Next person to walk out another shrilling screech, and the
Speaker 4: whole time you just feel the boy's energy, Like, I
Speaker 4: really fucking pulled this thing off.
Speaker 2: I was about the tear. I've seen her reaction to Susan.
Speaker 5: Susan walked out like, let me introduce my actors, like
Speaker 5: Taylor saying, and then she dropped it down like this,
Speaker 5: and she just erupted like, oh my gosh, and we go,
Speaker 5: we go through this.
Speaker 4: No, I'm trying to paint the picture for you should
Speaker 4: definitely be the one to tell a story. But like
Speaker 4: all her friends came dinner, there was like chefs in
Speaker 4: the back. Everyone gets a name tag. If you had
Speaker 4: a name tag, you're a suspect. And the two other
Speaker 4: actors were also suspects. And you get these like folders
Speaker 4: to write down information and like every scene or every act,
Speaker 4: essentially you flip a page to learn more about your
Speaker 4: character and kind of take here where you want to go.
Speaker 4: There's money to bribe people with that have to answer
Speaker 4: the question if you give them a dollar.
Speaker 5: It is a sick stick thing. It is a murder mystery. Look,
Speaker 5: Taylor did a great job right there. I would love
Speaker 5: to take all the credit in the world, Like did
Speaker 5: I vision the whole thing?
Speaker 2: Sure?
Speaker 5: But there were so many like Charles's friends were helpful,
Speaker 5: Like our nanny was super devil. She like booked the companies.
Speaker 5: She like found like two to three different ones. And
Speaker 5: I was like, just figure out which one that you
Speaker 5: would that you would do if you did a murder
Speaker 5: mystery party murder?
Speaker 2: Well, do you want to what happened? Was?
Speaker 5: Is so like a spoiler.
Speaker 4: They were going on no before you said, explain like
Speaker 4: kind of the game a little bit?
Speaker 2: Okay, I want to see.
Speaker 5: But I'm throwing a lot of flowers at Charles's friends,
Speaker 5: like they basically helped me out, Like I basically thought
Speaker 5: of the painting, They filled in all of it. They
Speaker 5: did everything. They're like, hey, did you think about childcare
Speaker 5: for this day? Hey, so on Friday, what do you
Speaker 5: think we're gonna do? Because I was going out to
Speaker 5: the Arizona Bowl, so it was fly her friends in
Speaker 5: and then when you'd see them all Charles was trying
Speaker 5: to play stuff for the weekend.
Speaker 2: I was like, I just leave open.
Speaker 5: I gotta I got something in the works for you,
Speaker 5: Like you can go do this, but make sure you're
Speaker 5: free during.
Speaker 2: This time to make it to not give it away.
Speaker 5: But basically, once her friends were there, they stayed until Sunday,
Speaker 5: so they stayed all weekend. They had the airbnb. Got
Speaker 5: an Airbnb for him, like the whole nine. And so
Speaker 5: when we go to the Murder Mystery party, I have
Speaker 5: a dinner reservation planned for us. I'm like, hey, I'm
Speaker 5: taking you to a dinner spot of when we haven't
Speaker 5: been to before. And then after that, like, let's go
Speaker 5: get a couple drinks. I got childcare force, Like, let's
Speaker 5: go get a couple of drinks at a speakeasy and
Speaker 5: just kind of lean into it and just kind of role.
Speaker 2: Play a little bit, you know, get a little spicy.
Speaker 5: So she like wore she like wore dress, and I
Speaker 5: wore like a colored shirt and a tie, just for
Speaker 5: the foundational stuff. To get to the house, drive to
Speaker 5: the airbnb, pull up. Then I take out nineteen twenty successories,
Speaker 5: like I put on the the uh suspenders that I
Speaker 5: had on out there, my newsboy hat, get her accessories
Speaker 5: like pearl necklace, scarf, stuff like that. We walk in
Speaker 5: and all the surprises happened. So when the murder mystery starts,
Speaker 5: he basically sets up as Taylor, saying, we all get binders,
Speaker 5: but we any of us could be the killer. We
Speaker 5: don't know who the killer is. Not even the killer
Speaker 5: knows who they are. You're basically playing an entire game
Speaker 5: of clue, and then you try and figure it out
Speaker 5: at the end. So then like Taylor got a right,
Speaker 5: Charro was the killer. Charl and her team we split
Speaker 5: up in the teams of three. They randomize it too,
Speaker 5: so people that didn't know each other were playing together.
Speaker 2: It just it was.
Speaker 5: Really cool because it it's like you're forced to talk
Speaker 5: to and communicate with everybody, like it is a a
Speaker 5: murder mystery party is a perfect like adult style ice
Speaker 5: bring night.
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah yeah.
Speaker 5: Getting different groups around each other probably be like Werewolf,
Speaker 5: Like you're playing with a big group people don't really
Speaker 5: know each other. You just get achlemn and then like
Speaker 5: if I go with to Taylor, I'm like, hey, you know,
Speaker 5: what business did you have with so and so with
Speaker 5: with with Ivan stoned, and Taylor be like, you know,
Speaker 5: hold out his hand because you got to work to
Speaker 5: get questions answered and have money because you can run
Speaker 5: out of money. But you're working all these different acts.
Speaker 5: Then you eat in the middle, you try and put
Speaker 5: stuff together. Another murder happens in the middle of the investigation,
Speaker 5: which switches it up, and as Taylor was saying, each act,
Speaker 5: you learn another clue about yourself and the goal of
Speaker 5: like what you're trying to keep secret, but you have
Speaker 5: dirt on somebody else and you're trying to pry it
Speaker 5: out of everybody. And then at the end, everyone kind
Speaker 5: of says who they think the murderer is, and again
Speaker 5: it be you. So you're basically just trying to You're
Speaker 5: playing a massive, real life game of clue.
Speaker 2: It's awesome.
Speaker 4: And the icebreaker partner was my favorite because when everyone's
Speaker 4: kind of getting there, it's like Charles's friends Will and
Speaker 4: Charles's friends, and it was like Me, Donnie, Caleb and Tayling,
Speaker 4: like everyone's.
Speaker 2: Kind of our neighbors, even our neighbors.
Speaker 5: They're in there because Caleb and them come in and
Speaker 5: they don't really know everybody.
Speaker 4: So everyone's kind of clicked up like a high school.
Speaker 4: But the minute you start counting people off, he count
Speaker 4: people off by six. There was eighteen people, so six
Speaker 4: teams of three we are now like all kind of
Speaker 4: mixed hodgepodge to where like we now have to work
Speaker 4: together as a team and learn about each other, and
Speaker 4: then you go to talk to other people. It's where
Speaker 4: it's not like a your hangout with just the people
Speaker 4: you know, like you're getting to know everybody in a
Speaker 4: very unique setting. I thought it was cool how the
Speaker 4: killer didn't know that they were the killer. Yeah, because
Speaker 4: we both walked into it thinking we hope we're not
Speaker 4: the killer.
Speaker 5: I know, the way we could work together game it up.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we're trying to get the thing going. It was dude,
Speaker 2: it was so much fun, so much fun.
Speaker 4: And then after the reason why this whole story got
Speaker 4: brought up is we got a little banged up. Hit
Speaker 4: the vitamins right after and will I.
Speaker 5: Got banged two nights in a row, did you I'm
Speaker 5: talking no, no, not two nights in a row.
Speaker 2: I'm thinking of New Year's Eve. But yes, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: So we finished and it was great, like it really
Speaker 2: was great. But there were like multiple holes. Yeah, there
Speaker 2: were multiple holes in the like the the game, like
Speaker 2: a lot of stuff kind of didn't add up. You
Speaker 2: kind of had to fill in the pieces for yourself
Speaker 2: because like the papers didn't give you that or whatever,
Speaker 2: and Will's little banged up and he starts being constructively
Speaker 2: critical about the actors. He thinks they left.
Speaker 4: Buddy's standing right behind him like he's just like, yeah,
Speaker 4: next time, we gotta get guys that are gonna probably
Speaker 4: buy and gota we got to vet the company to
Speaker 4: make sure they buy in a little bit more.
Speaker 2: I thought so. And he's sitting right there and he's like,
Speaker 2: hope you guys had fun. Here's my business card if
Speaker 2: you want to do it together.
Speaker 5: But they did.
Speaker 2: They did good.
Speaker 5: He did a really good job of being their characters
Speaker 5: and everything else. It got confusing a couple of times
Speaker 5: because people are asking questions saying like you said this earlier,
Speaker 5: and the gal was, oh no, and I didn't say
Speaker 5: it that way.
Speaker 2: I said it this way. So there was just some
Speaker 2: holes because it felt a little not rushed.
Speaker 5: But when when they're when we were sitting down to
Speaker 5: have dinner and they're like, hey, are we ready to murder,
Speaker 5: I'm thinking, like, yo, you almost disregard the food because
Speaker 5: you're still going to walk around and talk to everybody
Speaker 5: and get some more out of it. But it almost
Speaker 5: felt like it was a little too condensed, Yeah, it
Speaker 5: could have been another hour. Yeah, because right when we
Speaker 5: walked in, like when we pulled up to the airbnb,
Speaker 5: char I was like, so, so what do you have planned?
Speaker 2: And I was like, oh, we gotta. I got a
Speaker 2: private dinner with a private chef.
Speaker 5: And then when he opens the door, dude is in
Speaker 5: full character talking to Char like, welcome to the murder mystery.
Speaker 5: I was like, I kind of wish you would have
Speaker 5: said that, but yeah, let's go on in it. Walked
Speaker 5: to the back room, see our local friends, and then
Speaker 5: it could not have went any better.
Speaker 2: It was aw time, It was awesome. We should we
Speaker 2: should just have one.
Speaker 5: Yeah, get the color, Yeah, get the gals in, get
Speaker 5: some friends, like do a big one, he said, ideally,
Speaker 5: like he likes to do where it's teams of four,
Speaker 5: but it's a lot of fun. Like again, you have
Speaker 5: somebody who's controlling the binder. We had somebody who's taking
Speaker 5: notes with the binder. We had somebody controlling the controlling
Speaker 5: the cash, like being the treasurer. And then somebody who
Speaker 5: would like do the lead role of walking around talking
Speaker 5: like doing the negotiator, trying to negotiate or get some
Speaker 5: get some facts. Out, but it's a lot of highly
Speaker 5: recommend murderer mystery parties.
Speaker 4: And also to give flowers well. Compton was voted best
Speaker 4: Actor and Taylor was voted Best Actress.
Speaker 2: It was nice. It was nice long way.
Speaker 5: It was due.
Speaker 2: It was a lot of fun. And it's like the
Speaker 2: game within the game.
Speaker 4: Like, uh, Caleb just leaves his binder in the corner
Speaker 4: and I go up to the guy hosting and I go, hey,
Speaker 4: if somebody just leaves their binder, like, I can just
Speaker 4: it's fair to just go through it, right. He's like, yeah,
Speaker 4: you can do whatever you want. So I started going
Speaker 4: through his binder.
Speaker 5: Didn't talk to Caleb the rest of the night because
Speaker 5: I had all of his information, took his cashay took
Speaker 5: his cash, ended up giving the cash back.
Speaker 2: But I also I won the award for best.
Speaker 4: Thief, so that was nice. That was a nice deal.
Speaker 4: It was fun, dude. But Charo ended up being the killer.
Speaker 4: She was greta yeah, but Charle, like I tumbled upon
Speaker 4: the answer, give yourself more credit than that.
Speaker 2: We broke it down.
Speaker 5: We know you try not to give you like you
Speaker 5: played a good game. You got it right.
Speaker 2: It was fun. I got the answer correct, Chorro.
Speaker 4: It was like, if multiple teams get it right, whoever
Speaker 4: is the best description and the most correct description of
Speaker 4: why they did it? You know, a couple of bullet
Speaker 4: points of why she was a killer Charo had a
Speaker 4: full fucking multiple paragraph this is why she did this
Speaker 4: is when she did it.
Speaker 5: The whole thing, like to a t figured out she
Speaker 5: lives for that kind of stuff. That was a lot
Speaker 5: of fun.
Speaker 4: And it's one of those things too, you go to
Speaker 4: a murder mystery party and like you've got to buy
Speaker 4: in otherwise you're like, this shit's you. You could easily
Speaker 4: be like this ship's lame wanted. And the fact that
Speaker 4: everyone kind of bought in, even Caleb who was little Willie,
Speaker 4: who was obviously written as a black guy. It was
Speaker 4: he said, as Binder Lily said, black speak in it.
Speaker 2: Nah, I can't remember. Saw.
Speaker 4: It was a lot of fun. And then with the
Speaker 4: boys on the Arizonable that was cool too.
Speaker 2: Yeah, the Arizonable was all time. It did a good job.
Speaker 5: Like I was talking to I knew, the Cody coordinator
Speaker 5: for Toledo, and he was just talking about how that
Speaker 5: entire week, like Barsel crushes it with how they do
Speaker 5: their Bowl Games. But yeah, I mean that was fun.
Speaker 5: It was kind of weird doing the CW and the
Speaker 5: really highly produced thing because we had to cut out
Speaker 5: multiple segments because the duke game was running over, so
Speaker 5: then it condensed everything down. Like all in all, I
Speaker 5: probably spoke like twenty seconds total during the entire thing,
Speaker 5: Like we had to really crunch a lot of stuff
Speaker 5: in like Casey had to basically just you know, transition
Speaker 5: it to this interview, that interview Coach Bowlesley even this that.
Speaker 2: But it was cool in that money line hit, thank god. Yeah,
Speaker 2: because it was not great for a little bit.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I was down because we picked obviously Wyoming to
Speaker 5: cover minus four and a half on bet the bus,
Speaker 5: and I was in. Yeah, well I was one of them.
Speaker 5: They were in on a parlay with money line Wyoming
Speaker 5: and then money line Pin State that obviously got you know,
Speaker 5: Penn State got mopped, and then I had straight up
Speaker 5: Wyoming minus score and a half that wasn't happening. So
Speaker 5: I make an emotional bet fourth quarter there down Toledo's driving.
Speaker 2: A little bit.
Speaker 5: I'm like I'm going Wyoming money line and it hits
Speaker 5: and just fireworks.
Speaker 2: Lost a little lost. Yeah, oh yes, yes, yes, yes,
Speaker 2: but that.
Speaker 4: That offensive lineman catching the screen in that game in
Speaker 4: the first quarter and like running at forty yards. Did
Speaker 4: y'all watch the game, dude, kill They run a screen
Speaker 4: and the running back like touches the ball and it
Speaker 4: falls out of his hands and then it falls into
Speaker 4: the lap of this offensive lineman.
Speaker 2: He trucks it all the way down. The rules must
Speaker 2: be different in college.
Speaker 4: So I feel like if an eligible receiver touches the
Speaker 4: ball and then an ineligible number gets the ball, it
Speaker 4: should have been it's okay to advance, at least in
Speaker 4: the NFL.
Speaker 5: So the producer who was in our ear because you
Speaker 5: didn't have a headset on, like when they were trying
Speaker 5: to explain that, he was trying to cut in and say,
Speaker 5: if it's a defender or a referee tips it, that's
Speaker 5: where that would have been a legal play got But
Speaker 5: since it was his own offensive teammate, that's why they
Speaker 5: took it away, which did sucked up with housed it too,
Speaker 5: Like I don knew what to do with.
Speaker 4: The ball at Oxygen the whole thing after that, dude,
Speaker 4: it was it was so cool and so that got
Speaker 4: taken away, and I want to bring this up Lions
Speaker 4: end of the game this.
Speaker 2: Year or this week. Detroit Lions, Detroit Lions, NFL ball.
Speaker 4: Dude, NFL ball going for two Ballzy letting him hang,
Speaker 4: Dan Campbell letting it hang, and they call a play
Speaker 4: to Taylor Decker. And I explained this in a little
Speaker 4: bit of a recap on my Instagram, but Decker actually
Speaker 4: reached out to me. He's like, you're exactly right, Like
Speaker 4: you walk up, you bring multiple offensive linemen to the table,
Speaker 4: and then he reports to kind of throw off the
Speaker 4: defense because they know seventy or whoever is going to
Speaker 4: usually be the guy that reports. This should have been
Speaker 4: a touchdown. The Lions should have won this game.
Speaker 5: Got two guys coming after him, coming after him, and
Speaker 5: it kills the Lions because they would have been fighting
Speaker 5: for that one spot right and now they can't.
Speaker 2: And then the Cowboys.
Speaker 4: So what are they saying that he didn't report. They're
Speaker 4: saying that he didn't report. They're saying that they called
Speaker 4: him ineligible. And they said that's seventy reporter, but not Decker.
Speaker 4: If you go to like a slow moo, you can
Speaker 4: see Decker bring his hands to his chest. You don't
Speaker 4: and Brad Allen, the head referee.
Speaker 2: What's that? Also pointed like, go talk to the right now.
Speaker 4: The head referee, Brad Allen. He you see him look
Speaker 4: at Decker and seems as if he acknowledges him and
Speaker 4: then goes off. This is the problem is this Brad
Speaker 4: Allen guy apparently has already had a couple of miss
Speaker 4: calls throughout the season. I believe it was the Packers
Speaker 4: and the Chiefs. There was a no call DPI that
Speaker 4: really sealed the game. Uh not in favor of the
Speaker 4: Chiefs who won that game. Anyway, he messed it up
Speaker 4: real bad to the point. Yeah, to the point where
Speaker 4: it's like just a like this guy needs to probably
Speaker 4: go to prison. That's just crazy, absolutely crazy.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you gotta hang him up. You need to turn
Speaker 2: in your iPad. Yeah.
Speaker 4: Dan Campbell in his postgame press conference is like, I
Speaker 4: don't even want to talk about it. There's nothing that
Speaker 4: I don't want to talk about. Blah blah ball like this.
Speaker 4: That was a major killer, a major killer. And it's
Speaker 4: And somebody brought up a good point of Detroit making
Speaker 4: the playoffs for the first time and however long winning
Speaker 4: their division since like the nineties or something like that.
Speaker 2: Ninety three. It was two years old when that happened.
Speaker 4: Now you're taking away home games for Detroit, taking away
Speaker 4: money from the franchise, seeing away money from the city,
Speaker 4: like big brain level thing that I'm not even thinking
Speaker 4: about because of the referee wasn't present in the moment
Speaker 4: to truly dial in. Okay, this guy's reporting, this guy's
Speaker 4: not reporting, or they're both reporting. That is just you
Speaker 4: can't have that. You cannot have that in football. This
Speaker 4: is why the ref's gotta be better. It's it's been
Speaker 4: a it's been a product of the conversation for so long.
Speaker 4: How there's so much greyer and decisions and the human error.
Speaker 4: You cannot have that.
Speaker 2: You can't have it. Like he didn't he was.
Speaker 4: But because of the formation, seventy was an ineligible number
Speaker 4: because he was in a tight end position, but he
Speaker 4: was covered up. Now the wide receiver, he's off the
Speaker 4: ball and Decker's on the ball, making him the eligible
Speaker 4: receiver since he reported eligible. So naughty played by this
Speaker 4: lying crazy But you see him go up like why
Speaker 4: would Decker walk up there?
Speaker 2: Hey, I'm not reporting.
Speaker 4: It's like it's it doesn't make any sense because you
Speaker 4: want multiple guys to go up there, and you have
Speaker 4: your six man going to say, I'm reporting, and Decker
Speaker 4: all the same reporting. But the defense is probably thinking, oh,
Speaker 4: here comes seventy or whatever the number is is now.
Speaker 7: Reporting Camill like run the ress through the possibility that
Speaker 7: they might run these plays too.
Speaker 2: That is, Yeah, that's what.
Speaker 4: You say, Hey, these are the gadgets we have in
Speaker 4: these are the specials we have in this This number
Speaker 4: could report, that number could report.
Speaker 2: It's just this DB's pretty handsy, makes sure you keep
Speaker 2: your eye on it.
Speaker 7: I think eventually you just got to be able to
Speaker 7: review that stuff. Like how do you get around because
Speaker 7: like you're saying, like in the moment, not being able
Speaker 7: to be present to make the correct call with all
Speaker 7: the reviews that you do have that change games or
Speaker 7: you know.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't know. That one's more of like a hearsay.
Speaker 5: He's just saying that, you know, the ref basically dine
Speaker 5: on his hill.
Speaker 4: Yeah, because now you get into a point where now
Speaker 4: you're reviewing dead dead time in games, which leaves more
Speaker 4: up for interpretation. Now you have to elevate that to
Speaker 4: where you're literally putting mics on every player now, so
Speaker 4: that the conversations can be heard when they go review
Speaker 4: those types of plays. They this is a there's a
Speaker 4: lot of gray area and the rules of the NFL
Speaker 4: college all of it, but this is an excusable act
Speaker 4: from a referee standpoint. If you need to be able
Speaker 4: to that's your job is to be present in the moment.
Speaker 4: You can't just assume things are going on. Yeah, that's terrible,
Speaker 4: terrible ball. God, that pisses me. I feel bad for
Speaker 4: the Lions.
Speaker 5: So yeah, Lions can't I mean Lions right now are
Speaker 5: still hosting a playoff game. Yeah, I think that the
Speaker 5: two seed, but you're you're right about the one seed. Like,
Speaker 5: get running through there, because even if the forty nine
Speaker 5: ers lost this week, Cowboys still have the shot to
Speaker 5: go up to one.
Speaker 2: Yeah, with the Lions losing that game, the Niners clinch
Speaker 2: the one seed. Oh they clinched already. They clinched the
Speaker 2: one seed.
Speaker 4: But if the Lions win that game, now, Christian McCaffrey
Speaker 4: is not sitting out. He has to play in this game,
Speaker 4: and they have to win their game against the Rams
Speaker 4: to uh become the one seed.
Speaker 2: Well, how do you see this all shaping up? You
Speaker 2: gotta pull it. Yeah, pull pull up.
Speaker 5: You think so Raven's gonna win it all?
Speaker 4: I think the clearest the clearest path here is forty
Speaker 4: nine Ers Ravens Super Bowl. Those are those teams that
Speaker 4: way seems that way, but you get into the tournament
Speaker 4: nineteen Titans versus the one seed.
Speaker 2: Ravens at the bank. Yeah, I'm playing the bill. I
Speaker 2: think the Bills over the Browns. I'm pulling damage.
Speaker 5: I'm pulling for the Browns and Bills. Dude on the
Speaker 5: AFC side, Yeah, I can get on board with that.
Speaker 5: About think about going to the Super Bowl throning dethrowning
Speaker 5: Lamar Jackson in Baltimore And.
Speaker 4: Yes, and you got Cleveland Brown fans chanting Joe Flackler's
Speaker 4: dame when he was with the Ravens for however long.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's just crazy how this world is. Well, who's
Speaker 2: that comedian Stavvy Yo, he's so funny, bro. Yeah.
Speaker 4: But I mean, I feel like we've gone from the
Speaker 4: AFC in the beginning of the season looking like this
Speaker 4: is the toughest division. So now I think the NFC
Speaker 4: is the strongest division going in the playoffs. Talking about
Speaker 4: the conference because Miami, Miami has obvious holes. Kansas City
Speaker 4: is showing they have obvious holes. I can't be Buffalo.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I was gonna say, like you look at Green Bay, uh,
Speaker 5: Tampa Bay and even Philly.
Speaker 2: Now Philly just lost to the.
Speaker 4: And they they play the Giants this week and who knows,
Speaker 4: who knows what's gonna happen there because they're kind of
Speaker 4: falling apart. They're in the opposite of what they did
Speaker 4: in years past. They're getting colder as the season goes on, yeah,
Speaker 4: as opposed to just getting stronger. But I think the
Speaker 4: picture is much more clear on the NFC side for me,
Speaker 4: Like the forty nine Ers are the best team, even
Speaker 4: though they got dusted by the They lost real bad
Speaker 4: to the Baltimore Ravens. Ravens Ravens are by the Dolphins
Speaker 4: out people. It is crazy, But I'm anxious to see
Speaker 4: what that bye week, what happens to the Ravens because
Speaker 4: my only sample size is twenty nineteen Leve which I've
Speaker 4: already brought up.
Speaker 5: Is what you gotta love too is all of Lamar's
Speaker 5: postgame postgame conversations. You can just tell he does not
Speaker 5: give a fuck about what just happened. Yes, like it's
Speaker 5: all it's it's Super Bowl this year of bus. Basically,
Speaker 5: he doesn't care. And I love listening to him on
Speaker 5: his postgame conversations because you can just see it like
Speaker 5: he's he wants the Lombardi.
Speaker 2: He doesn't care about nothing else. He's like, hey, yeah,
Speaker 2: everybody played, well, yeah, it was a good game.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 2: He really doesn't say a lot, and I just love it.
Speaker 2: You can just tell he's focused.
Speaker 4: But I like of the besides Baltimore Ravens. I like Buffalo.
Speaker 4: I like Buffalo in this. I think they beat the Chiefs. Yeah,
Speaker 4: I think they're.
Speaker 2: Gonna I think you got a Jacksonville in it right now.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and this week here, this week will be big
Speaker 4: if Jacksonville loses and the Colts win, Colts take the division.
Speaker 2: Crazy.
Speaker 5: So it looks like, uh, it's a winning in game
Speaker 5: with with the Colts and the Texans because Texans are
Speaker 5: nine and seven.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but there's there's a bunch of isn't there a
Speaker 2: bunch of like tiebreakers? So let's go to the standings
Speaker 2: here AFC standings. I think the Bengals are out. I
Speaker 2: think they got eliminated.
Speaker 5: Yeah, Uh, Texans are on the outside looking in, so
Speaker 5: they're the first team in the Hunt basically, so this
Speaker 5: a win and in game between the Colston Texans. Oh
Speaker 5: that's awesome, that is cool, and it's just wait, this
Speaker 5: would be weird. Now if the Steelers win, are they
Speaker 5: in what's there?
Speaker 2: What's their record?
Speaker 5: They're nine and seven as well? Their number two uh
Speaker 5: in the Hunt? Yeah, I would assume. So Steelers need
Speaker 5: to win in Texas to lose, right, No, Jack, can
Speaker 5: you look up Steelers playoff scenarios?
Speaker 2: God, you gotta love it, man. Yeah, this ball is
Speaker 2: shaping up great in the end of the season.
Speaker 5: Can the Titans knock off the Jags?
Speaker 2: Did? Jacks have too much? But here's all the Steelers playoffs.
Speaker 2: Steve have five playoff scenarios. So yeah, they're not winning in.
Speaker 5: Wait wait wait Steelers. Oh Steelers with the Steelers, Steelers winning,
Speaker 5: Jack War, Jaguars loss or tie, Steelers win in Buffalo loss,
Speaker 5: Steelers win in Colts Texans high. Who's Buffalo playing Buffalo's
Speaker 5: I think they're playing Miami for the division.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, that's their best scenario.
Speaker 4: They gotta win because I feel I believe the Ravens
Speaker 4: will sit a bunch of guys.
Speaker 5: It's time you've already, you've.
Speaker 4: Already clinched the one seed in the AFC, Like you
Speaker 4: don't want to get a bunch of guys hurt, maybe
Speaker 4: playing for a quarter or two like a preseason game,
Speaker 4: and then after that, so you gotta think the Steelers
Speaker 4: are gonna win that game because they're playing for more
Speaker 4: than the Ravens are playing. And then yeah, Buffalo, but
Speaker 4: I feel like I feel like Buffalo is gonna beat Miami.
Speaker 5: I'll tell you what you gotta look out for right now.
Speaker 4: No wait, wait, wait, wait wait, Raiders are eliminated too, Yeah,
Speaker 4: never mind, Chiefs are Chiefs are one the AC West
Speaker 4: that you're looking at.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they've already clinched right now. The Chargers are favored
Speaker 2: one and a half against the Chiefs.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but I've also they can't go up or down
Speaker 4: in their rankings. Yeah yeah, so they're gonna probably sit guys.
Speaker 5: I don't know if they can afford to. You gotta
Speaker 5: you gotta put together. They had another drop, another big
Speaker 5: drop this past week. No, the Chiefs are so weird, man,
Speaker 5: because they are a team. You look at it like
Speaker 5: they're not Super Bowl contenders this year, But then again,
Speaker 5: it's the Chiefs, so the minute we all start saying,
Speaker 5: we all pull a little confident, we say they're done.
Speaker 2: This is when they just go back. But this is
Speaker 2: where you're most confident about Chiefs Kingdom falling this year. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I mean, I agree. I don't think they're gonna make
Speaker 2: the Super Bowl.
Speaker 5: Right now as it stands, they would be playing against Buffalo,
Speaker 5: and you take Buffalo in that, No they I don't
Speaker 5: think they will though, because if Buffalo loses, they'll fall
Speaker 5: prior to the seven. Who knows, who knows?
Speaker 2: Maybe they still there?
Speaker 5: Are you?
Speaker 2: The playoff scenario so wild.
Speaker 5: If Buffalo, if they win, then they win the division,
Speaker 5: so they'll be the They'll Buffalo can go from the
Speaker 5: six seed all the way to the two seed with win. Yeah,
Speaker 5: that'd be crazy, and then playing in Buffalo would be nuts.
Speaker 5: In January yikes, Yeah, after he was they were essentially
Speaker 5: pronounced dead.
Speaker 4: That's gonna be a great game. That'll be a fun
Speaker 4: game to watch. I like the I think the Rams
Speaker 4: are playing the Niners as well. Like the Rams in
Speaker 4: that game.
Speaker 5: We were talking about the AFC where I'm rooting for Brains,
Speaker 5: Browns and Bills, I'm kind of pulling for the Rams.
Speaker 5: Niners there one seed if they go like if they go,
Speaker 5: like obviously I'm pulling.
Speaker 2: For the boys.
Speaker 4: Yeah, well no, they clinched, So I feel like they're
Speaker 4: gonna sit out like they already talked about. Say, I'm McAffrey,
Speaker 4: the're gonna they're gonna arrest dudes up. So the Rams
Speaker 4: have an easy path to victory here, and I think
Speaker 4: they're underdogs, Like I'm even saying.
Speaker 2: The super Bowl.
Speaker 5: I'm staying on the run to the super Bowl, like
Speaker 5: I would love to see the Rams. I think they're
Speaker 5: a team you don't want to play right now, similar
Speaker 5: to the Bills of the NFC, even the Browns. I mean, Joe,
Speaker 5: I know, yeah, but eleven and five insane? Everybody they
Speaker 5: were dead too. They chalked it up. Joe Flacco's coming in.
Speaker 5: He's at three hundred plus the last several games. I
Speaker 5: wonder what happens if Joe Flacco takes a run at
Speaker 5: the playoffs. Not saying he has to win the super Bowl,
Speaker 5: but let's say he makes it to the AFC Championship
Speaker 5: or even gets past the first round of the playoffs,
Speaker 5: you move on from Deshaun Watson.
Speaker 2: That would be insane. Yeah, that would be insane.
Speaker 4: But so if the if the Browns win in the
Speaker 4: first round of the playoffs and then they lose hypothetical situation,
Speaker 4: do you walk away from Deshaun Watson.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 5: I don't think he can. I mean, I guess you could,
Speaker 5: but you're taking a massive loss in the whole cap
Speaker 5: finances because so much is guaranteed to him.
Speaker 2: Do what that's a turn him back to you? That'll
Speaker 2: be interesting, dude. Do you like the Bills but in
Speaker 2: the playoffs and the Browns.
Speaker 5: Like I would be rooting for Josh and the Bills
Speaker 5: just because we know the boy, But the Browns is
Speaker 5: kind of like that. That's ind therella story that if
Speaker 5: they end up winning all these games, I would like
Speaker 5: love it.
Speaker 2: I'd be smiling I backed down to them. Yeah, I'm
Speaker 2: with that. I like that a lot.
Speaker 5: But yeah, if they all get in, say they all
Speaker 5: all these teams get in, I would want the Bills
Speaker 5: and I would want probably the Niners. But I'd kind
Speaker 5: of like to see chaos. So I'd love to see
Speaker 5: the Rams. I love to see the Rams and Bills.
Speaker 5: So Rams Bills, superl Chaos, super Bowl Chaos, Super Bowl,
Speaker 5: Rams Bills, that would be nuts.
Speaker 2: I would love to see Detroit in the Super Bowl.
Speaker 2: I think that would be so cool. Yeah, yeah, I don't. Yes,
Speaker 2: they would be sick too, but yeah, I'll think that'd
Speaker 2: be a fun that'd be a fun situation.
Speaker 5: You can't sleep on the Dallas Cowboys, I think he can. Yeah,
Speaker 5: they're not going to do anything trying to give.
Speaker 2: A little bit of Yeah, they played tough ball games
Speaker 2: here down the road, but they make stupid mistakes and
Speaker 2: those things.
Speaker 4: That's the reason why I'm kind of down on the
Speaker 4: Browns a little bit because Flahol is slinging that thing.
Speaker 4: But he's also giving the ball up a bunch two
Speaker 4: and interceptions count. Yes, he has a bunch of interceptions.
Speaker 4: He throws the ball for five hundred yards and three touchdowns.
Speaker 4: But he's given up too like he's he's ripping it
Speaker 4: as if he's thirty eight years old, came off the
Speaker 4: couch and he doesn't give a fuck, which is beautiful. Yeah,
Speaker 4: but when you get to the playoffs, those interceptions cost
Speaker 4: you a lot more.
Speaker 5: Thirteen tuddies, eight interceptions. Yeah, he's he's ripping it. He's
Speaker 5: absolutely ripping it. That's why you kind of like Uh.
Speaker 4: I like Buffalo over the Browns as far as playing, uh,
Speaker 4: the upset team in the playoffs, but.
Speaker 2: The Cowboys do.
Speaker 4: The Cowboys are gonna get into close games and they're
Speaker 4: gonna do some dumb shitsu strategically and they're gonna lose,
Speaker 4: and that just sucks.
Speaker 2: As they have talent. They have so much talent. I
Speaker 2: think it's just a coaching.
Speaker 5: I bet if the playoff pictures like this, I bet
Speaker 5: the Buccaneers would sneak Philly. You could make show Man.
Speaker 2: You could see that happening right now, like the Eagles are,
Speaker 2: even though they just us the fucking saying, God damn
Speaker 2: it money on that game.
Speaker 5: Took the Falcons.
Speaker 2: Are they still in it? I don't think playoff scenarios
Speaker 2: for the Falcons. They are, but it's like one of those.
Speaker 5: Yeah, they probably need it. They probably need a tie
Speaker 5: to happen, all right. Playoff scenarios entering the final week,
Speaker 5: I mean, to.
Speaker 2: Beat the Saints and then the Bucks have to lose
Speaker 2: to the pan I mean that's the you know the Bucks.
Speaker 2: They thought that they had. The Bucks have to lose
Speaker 2: the Panthers. Yeah, Panthers have Wait what they do last week?
Speaker 2: I think they got beat did they mayn't beat They
Speaker 2: won a couple of weeks ago against let's see. Oh man,
Speaker 2: that division is so shitty. They they got mopped by
Speaker 2: the Jaguars twenty six. But I feel like the AFC
Speaker 2: South is the best, the worst, best division. What do
Speaker 2: you mean?
Speaker 4: Like they might have guys that are like three three
Speaker 4: of the four teams might be in the playoffs, but
Speaker 4: I just don't think any of those teams are competiti.
Speaker 2: Enough to make a run. Yeah, like they're gonna get
Speaker 2: in because things have just fallen that way.
Speaker 5: Like this is a year where they're similar to the
Speaker 5: NFC least when they're talking about the NFC East and everybody, yeah, yes.
Speaker 2: Yes, sitting around five hundred. Yeah, I mean all of them,
Speaker 2: all of them except for the Titans of nine and seven, right,
Speaker 2: all nine and seven. We had a winning in game
Speaker 2: and I think we were at eight seven and one
Speaker 2: that year against the Giants.
Speaker 4: It's crazy how it works out. And then you have
Speaker 4: a team scrapping for the seventh seed and they have
Speaker 4: like ten wins.
Speaker 5: Yeah, that is a team that's hot, Like the Giants
Speaker 5: back in two thousand and eight when they beat the
Speaker 5: Patriots Yeah, and they were there.
Speaker 2: They were the lowest rated seed. Yeah, the two against
Speaker 2: the Cardinals. Eagles did that as well in the Super Bowl.
Speaker 2: They were the sixth seed right when when they won
Speaker 2: the Super Bowl a few years back? Oh with Foles.
Speaker 5: I don't know, they were pretty solid. Yeah, but I
Speaker 5: think they maybe they were a lower seed.
Speaker 2: I think they were a lower I don't think they
Speaker 2: won the division. I'll say that.

Speaker 5: We thought it just straight body Yeah, I guess. So,
Speaker 5: like like mine, I don't have like a pinpoint. It's
Speaker 5: got to be this percent body fat. But being around
Speaker 5: two fifteen zero low back pain is my is a
Speaker 5: New Year's resolution of mine because I've had it forever.
Speaker 5: But basically, like my structure is the morning routine, thirty
Speaker 5: grams of protein in every meal through food that gets

Speaker 5: and then get the rest up to my up to
Speaker 5: like two twenty of protein through like essential amino acids,
Speaker 5: glued tomine, you know, drinks and shakes and stuff like that.
Speaker 5: But mine's basically thirty plus grams of protein every meal
Speaker 5: in the morning. The first one's gonna have no carves
Speaker 5: of protein and fat. Then cold tubbing four times a
Speaker 5: week or cold water immersion four times a week. I'm
Speaker 5: gonna get this shit. I'm like in the middle of
Speaker 5: it too, but get it kind of like printed so
Speaker 5: that way I can check like as the weeks go
Speaker 5: on and switch them out every week. So that way,
Speaker 5: you know, I hit on all my you know, vitamins
Speaker 5: and minerals like complements I take in the morning. I
Speaker 5: have it for the you know, right when I wake up,
Speaker 5: breakfast time ones with the meal ones that are three
Speaker 5: days a week. So I'm like trying to structure out
Speaker 5: that way versus having like the result there, because I
Speaker 5: just feel like if I just dial in those things.
Speaker 2: The result will come. Yeah, enjoin the process. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: I would jump on I'll jump on board with that,
Speaker 2: like I For me, it's establishing, which I've kind of
Speaker 2: done towards the end of the year. I'm like thirty
Speaker 2: six days in of doing every single day some sort
Speaker 2: of like cold water therapy, whether like if we're on
Speaker 2: the road, we're in Arizona, I just had to take
Speaker 2: cold shower, so I take a cold shower. But like
Speaker 2: wake up in the morning, hitting a routine for myself,
Speaker 2: and then for me, it's all about like dialing in
Speaker 2: my optimal health from like a gut health standpoint, I've
Speaker 2: still got a bunch of issues from all those anti inflammatories.
Speaker 2: I just get the body running the exact way I
Speaker 2: want to and paying more attention to like longevity things,
Speaker 2: not just like cosmetic things as far as like you
Speaker 2: want to look better and all that, but like the stretching,
Speaker 2: the stability and the core the knee pain that it's
Speaker 2: it's always going on. Try to figure out way to
Speaker 2: get that knee pain a little bit better. But yeah,
Speaker 2: I think this is gonna be a nice little year.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 4: The routine is absolutely everything it is and it when
Speaker 4: you do it, it's like it sucks at first, but
Speaker 4: once you get in, Like what I've noticed, like being
Speaker 4: this far into it now is it's enjoyable. Like even
Speaker 4: when I wake up tired, I know, hey, at the
Speaker 4: end of this routine, I'm gonna feel way more awake
Speaker 4: and I'm being able to get my shit done today.
Speaker 4: And it's truly like I had this coffee you brought
Speaker 4: me today, but I've I've kind of like not as
Speaker 4: much coffee, like feel more consistent energy throughout the day.
Speaker 4: It's like you just make it a priority and I'm
Speaker 4: messed with it. I'm really enjoying it.
Speaker 5: You create that momentum. Yeah, because even if I go
Speaker 5: a few days without like doing something, or say I
Speaker 5: couldn't get a work out it or I didn't work out,
Speaker 5: Like I just know in the back of my mind,
Speaker 5: I'm like, man if I just wake up earlier the
Speaker 5: next morning and do workout, like I know that that
Speaker 5: will that will get everything going. Yeah, because waking up
Speaker 5: after days of like even with holiday season, you get
Speaker 5: kind of in a I got kind of in a
Speaker 5: mode of when I got to sleep in, i'd sleep
Speaker 5: till like seven seven thirty, and then you're just slower
Speaker 5: to get out of bed versus like waking up when
Speaker 5: the alarm goes off with like five point thirty five
Speaker 5: forty five, and just like it's that much harder after
Speaker 5: you kind of create the holiday season of eating good sweets,
Speaker 5: like sleeping a little bit longer, having you know, kind
Speaker 5: of like having fun in the mornings, slower in the mornings.
Speaker 5: But once you it's like, yeah, I just know in
Speaker 5: my head, I'm like, man if I just wake up
Speaker 5: early next morning, I just got to get the fuck up,
Speaker 5: get moving, like cold shower this morning, and like that
Speaker 5: will that will start to create that momentum.
Speaker 2: But I'm with you, I think it's gonna be a
Speaker 2: fun year for me.
Speaker 5: I got to write it out, like I'm somebody I
Speaker 5: have to write things down or it'll I have to
Speaker 5: make the invisible visible. If not, I will always justify
Speaker 5: something because I haven't like put it out into the universe.
Speaker 5: I feel like, so if I like write it down,
Speaker 5: if I print it out, if I put it up
Speaker 5: so that way, it's in front of my face when
Speaker 5: I go into the pantry on checking things off. That way,
Speaker 5: I don't miss whatever vitamins Like you can just kind
Speaker 5: of go by the seat of your pants sometimes. Man,
Speaker 5: I take that this morning. I kind of can't remember. Oh,
Speaker 5: I'll make sure to take it when I get home.
Speaker 5: Then I think I already took it because I thought
Speaker 5: I was gonna take it when I got home. So
Speaker 5: if I just write stuff out, if I map it
Speaker 5: out and put it in front of my face, then
Speaker 5: I know, like I'll create some momentum.
Speaker 3: What are you JP, I just got to get cut
Speaker 3: up before August seventeenth wedding day.
Speaker 2: Oh it's it's in Yeah, I mean unofficially officially, okay,
Speaker 2: donan right before the fall too. That's big of you. Yeah,
Speaker 2: that's big.
Speaker 3: I mean that's pretty much my goal fitness goal. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 3: I gotta be looking nice.
Speaker 5: You have any like, uh, like a different discipline or
Speaker 5: anything that you're trying to implement.
Speaker 3: I mean, definitely could do more cardio. I want to
Speaker 3: start swimming, get back into the water. Yeah, but it's
Speaker 3: just swimming is not convenient like as far as gym
Speaker 3: memberships and stuff like that.
Speaker 2: But yeah, yeah, I'm trying to figure it out.
Speaker 5: Match you got you got some New Year's resis.
Speaker 8: Yeah, I want to do like fitness wise, you're talking,
Speaker 8: I want to do more cardio, Like I want to
Speaker 8: get more into Like I'm not somebody who can just
Speaker 8: go for runs, but like I'm thinking if I get
Speaker 8: into like more like intermural sports, like playing like more football,
Speaker 8: Like get into a couple flight football leagues, maybe play
Speaker 8: some beach volleyball when he gets warmer outside. Just trying
Speaker 8: to stay active that way because I still have like
Speaker 8: that competitive itch. Just trying to stay more active that
Speaker 8: way and have fun with it.
Speaker 2: Nice. Did you give yours? Nothing really changing from last year?
Speaker 7: Just consistency is like huge for me, and like y'all
Speaker 7: are saying, routine, So continuing that, honing in on a
Speaker 7: couple other things.
Speaker 2: What those are? No clue, but always room for improvement.
Speaker 4: I like it, is there anything obviously there is, But
Speaker 4: is there anything outside of a body standpoint?
Speaker 5: Obviously we have other news resolutions. We kind of all
Speaker 5: just hit the body for a second. All great, we
Speaker 5: all think it. Cars are lying up more this morning
Speaker 5: at boosts at boos, and you just know, like there's
Speaker 5: one cat in there fucking humming was doing a take
Speaker 5: top possibly.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was like this light.
Speaker 5: Cat.
Speaker 2: He was just almost like forty five minutes.
Speaker 5: Yeah, bro, I'm talking running at like eight nine miles
Speaker 5: an hour for minutes at a time, and it would
Speaker 5: take like a quick break and then get back on it.
Speaker 2: Yeah that's crazy.
Speaker 5: But I'm just saying at like high speed running, Like
Speaker 5: I had to jump in there early this morning because
Speaker 5: they get up.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was kind of like the same crew of
Speaker 2: people in there just a little bit earlier. Oh really
Speaker 2: I saw I think I saw that dude. I was like,
Speaker 2: he is fu he was.
Speaker 5: He was humming by the time I walked in there.
Speaker 2: You just got here. Do you have stuff outside of
Speaker 2: outside of fitness? Yeah, dude, I want to, uh, like
Speaker 2: from a benchmark standpoint, I want to at least read
Speaker 2: one book a month.
Speaker 4: I like, I think that's a soul. I read more
Speaker 4: than I ever have in years past, in twenty twenty three.
Speaker 4: But I just think, take you next step of like
Speaker 4: consistently reading, whether it's like self help book type of stuff,
Speaker 4: or like like like would you say about Charlie like
Speaker 4: read what you love until you Yeah, so I've like
Speaker 4: picked up the pace of like reading and stuff like that.
Speaker 4: I'm in the middle of one right now, like I
Speaker 4: got it like a few days ago. I'm on like
Speaker 4: one hundred and fifty pages in, and so just kind
Speaker 4: of like this unique pursuit of acquiring like different skills,
Speaker 4: whether it's like financial literacy, whether it's like trying to
Speaker 4: look at like learning a new language, or like reading
Speaker 4: just reading comprehension in general, like trying to take the
Speaker 4: information I'm reading and process it more like instead of
Speaker 4: just like checking the box of reading. But I think
Speaker 4: that's like for me, I enjoy that. I'm starting to
Speaker 4: find myself enjoy that, and so taking the next step
Speaker 4: of like putting a number on it will definitely help.
Speaker 5: Love that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, a book a month would be nice, right, It's
Speaker 2: just disciplined too.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it is like, uh, it's such like a lost art.
Speaker 4: It seems like like picking up an actual book we
Speaker 4: don't like that lost art much.
Speaker 2: Do you know what I'm saying?
Speaker 5: How many?
Speaker 2: How often?
Speaker 4: Like when you're a kid, you're a kid, you see
Speaker 4: your parents like picking up a book and reading, and
Speaker 4: now we have all this access to the internet and
Speaker 4: social media. Is like you don't see anybody our age
Speaker 4: with an actual hardcover book.
Speaker 2: In their hands.
Speaker 5: I don't feel like anybody in their twenties and thirties
Speaker 5: really didn't, you know. I feel like people do a
Speaker 5: whole lot of reading outside of having to growing up
Speaker 5: in school and then maybe as you like get older
Speaker 5: and realize you know that reading kind.
Speaker 2: Of fucks it, kind of fucks it, kind of fucks Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 5: You know. I like I like the uh. I like
Speaker 5: the reading goal and another one that I was gonna
Speaker 5: have to go with, like reading is making sure I
Speaker 5: write like notes, like a book summary, and like just
Speaker 5: like writing more. I just think like writing, whether it's
Speaker 5: journaling every day. I got Charro, which I think I
Speaker 5: might get us all one is there's this a five
Speaker 5: minute journal and where it has everything kind of like
Speaker 5: laid out for you, like what to write about it
Speaker 5: in the morning, with the write about a night. But
Speaker 5: I think like writing will be really good. It was
Speaker 5: something I wanted to do last year and obviously did
Speaker 5: not do it, so I want to like hold myself
Speaker 5: to that when this year, I just got to structurally
Speaker 5: figure out like what that looks like.
Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, my brother in law did this thing this
Speaker 7: past year where he tried to do it, you know,
Speaker 7: once a week or a few times a month, and
Speaker 7: then you know that just changes. But write down something
Speaker 7: that positive in that week or in that moment, and
Speaker 7: then go back and reread them, because then you'll realize
Speaker 7: like a very small thing can feel like such a
Speaker 7: victory in that week. When you read it at the
Speaker 7: end of the year, you're like, oh damn, like even
Speaker 7: that little thing was tight that week, and you just
Speaker 7: kind of like, you know, reflect on that kind of stuff.
Speaker 2: Right with that. I like that, boys and anything in
Speaker 2: the back. We're all good reading if you got one.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean I was reading one book a month
Speaker 3: as mine as well. Still like last year of them
Speaker 3: just making my bed every single.
Speaker 2: Day, which I did. Hit did you really? Yeah a
Speaker 2: first win, first wait win right out of the bed.
Speaker 2: So continue that more journaling for sure.
Speaker 3: And I man, I was I had one because sitting
Speaker 3: and I were coming up with them yesterday, but it's
Speaker 3: escape in my mind, so I might just concur with y'all.
Speaker 5: On the significant other, like char and I when we
Speaker 5: were talking about it yesterday. We're gonna do like a
Speaker 5: weekly discipline, so whether it's yoga or something that we
Speaker 5: can do it together in the morning, like health wise,
Speaker 5: fitness wise, whether it's sauna and cold the cold tub
Speaker 5: or yoga or boxing or whatever. It is like one
Speaker 5: daily one discipline a week, and then we're gonna do
Speaker 5: like a bi monthly date night. So she plans one
Speaker 5: one month, or she plans one one week. I planed one,
Speaker 5: you know, the next after the next couple of weeks,
Speaker 5: and then like one where we have to be intentional
Speaker 5: on getting our uh getting like a group of friends
Speaker 5: together to like do something whether it's a murder mystery
Speaker 5: or like just doing something that we're we are like
Speaker 5: intentional about, like being around friends.
Speaker 3: That's one of ours was at the end of each month,
Speaker 3: sitting down and holding each other accountable about if you
Speaker 3: are keeping up with your Oh yeah, that's a good one.
Speaker 2: That is a good one. Be intentional about being around
Speaker 2: friends is a really good one. Yeah, because you know
Speaker 2: how it is.
Speaker 4: Yeah, especially doing as much as we do, like I
Speaker 4: feel because we travel so much. When I get home,
Speaker 4: I just want to be with my family and I
Speaker 4: don't take the time to like check the other social
Speaker 4: boxes right at all.
Speaker 2: But doing it I like that.
Speaker 5: Like that one and whether like was we were talking
Speaker 5: about like a quarterly thing too, is like whether it's
Speaker 5: the murder mystery, like each like fills us one time,
Speaker 5: just because again, monthly, it's like the minute it doesn't
Speaker 5: happen one month and it can kind of fizzle out.
Speaker 5: So if like you're the monthly thing, if it's just
Speaker 5: like dinner or something like that, but a quarterly thing
Speaker 5: that we're it's like, hey, we'll host one. You guys
Speaker 5: are responsible for hosting a quarter you know, you get
Speaker 5: another pair of friends that host at their house, whether
Speaker 5: it's a Chandler's or something like that. Yeah, but just
Speaker 5: doing one where it's like on that crew, I think
Speaker 5: it would be a lot of fun.
Speaker 2: Quick pivot. We got to give a huge shout out
Speaker 2: to Buschle Chandler. Yeah, oh yes, yes, yes, incredible.
Speaker 4: Literally the guy has sat for a year waiting for
Speaker 4: this irishman to finally pull the trigger and.
Speaker 2: It's it's big. Yeah, it's big, massive.
Speaker 5: Man.
Speaker 4: My understanding is it's not like one hundred percent done yet,
Speaker 4: Like there still has to be a couple of dominoes
Speaker 4: that fall, but everything go on Connor, But it seems
Speaker 4: like things are pointing that way.
Speaker 5: Does it seem like it is going to be a
Speaker 5: one eighty five?
Speaker 2: I think so?
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 4: I think I wouldn't know the answer to that. But
Speaker 4: if connorsting one eighty five and Mike's on.
Speaker 5: Social media international fight week, is that's when it's gonna happen.
Speaker 5: My thought was, my question mark was if it's actually
Speaker 5: going to be a one eighty five.
Speaker 2: Where you think it would be, Like, yeah, if it's that,
Speaker 2: if it's at one eighty five.
Speaker 3: The only reason McGregor wants to do that is so
Speaker 3: that if he does win, he can say I have
Speaker 3: wins at middleweight, welterweight, lightweight, and featherweight, which obviously he'd
Speaker 3: be the only person person with three.
Speaker 5: I just that's not even he Mike probably what walks
Speaker 5: around it when it.
Speaker 3: Mike is one eighty five right now, Like Mike is
Speaker 3: saying it's benefits Mike more than it benefits Yeah, why
Speaker 3: is it benefit Mike Moore because he's more naturally built.
Speaker 3: Like at that weight, Connor is like eating his butt
Speaker 3: off to be one eighty five when he's not on
Speaker 3: all the stuff, right, because all you see is these
Speaker 3: photos of Connor, oh ju stuff. It's so cool and
Speaker 3: so clear he's on. He was on something, but there's
Speaker 3: I feel like there's a whole bunch of stuff. He
Speaker 3: still got to go through the YUSADA protocol.
Speaker 5: Well they're not with you SADA anymore, or whichever whichever
Speaker 5: drug testing thing they have to do.
Speaker 2: I really don't know. I just know it's like not
Speaker 2: officially official yet. Yeah, seems like it's gonna happen though,
Speaker 2: But that is so sick. It was like June twenty eighth,
Speaker 2: June twenty ninth, that's international fight week.
Speaker 5: We'll have to I feel like that would be a
Speaker 5: weekend or the week that we would do like beer Olympics.
Speaker 2: Oh no, we are going to that fight, yeah, we asked,
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, no doubt.
Speaker 5: I'm just saying like the last year, I think we
Speaker 5: did the Bearer Olympics on the last week, Like we're
Speaker 5: gonna have to dictate, We're gonna have to that.
Speaker 2: That is what we will be doing Yeah last week,
Speaker 2: we will be there, we will we will be there.
Speaker 2: Bet it'll be Sphere of September. I know, but that's
Speaker 2: what they say now, But I think, yeah, that's true.
Speaker 2: Why wouldn't you do McGregor, Yeah.
Speaker 5: Come back.
Speaker 2: Yeah maybe it's like, uh, I mean it's only six
Speaker 2: months away. Yeah, I wish. I don't know the planning
Speaker 2: and all that, but that would be insane if it
Speaker 2: was at the Sphere insane. That's gonna be so much fun.
Speaker 2: It's so fucking hype. Yeah, I really I want to
Speaker 2: win so bad. I know.
Speaker 4: Man, Once again, there's a I feel like there's an
Speaker 4: easy path to victory on Connor. What do you mean,
Speaker 4: take him to the ground and sit on him for
Speaker 4: a round, tire his ass out, Because from what mine
Speaker 4: are saying, I'm very green when it comes to like
Speaker 4: understanding combat. But jp you're are pseudo UFC guy. Connor
Speaker 4: is incredibly precise, throws good, and he moves really well
Speaker 4: on his feet, and he's not the best grappler. So
Speaker 4: if Mike, who's a great wrestler, takes him to the ground,
Speaker 4: wears him out, putting his body on him the whole
Speaker 4: entire time, for a round, round and a half, make
Speaker 4: it boring, and then make it fucking.
Speaker 2: Oh this is but Mike should. It's like Mike should
Speaker 2: be doing that every fight.
Speaker 5: He just doesn't do it, and he's like all the
Speaker 5: spirit the spirit of fight spirits great, Yes, absolutely, but
Speaker 5: I feel like.
Speaker 2: That's all of Mike's fights.
Speaker 5: It's like, hey, he should play to his strength of
Speaker 5: wrestling here now, Like even though uh connor is precise
Speaker 5: with his striking, he's got good defense on wrestling, Like
Speaker 5: he would have to get him to the ground, which
Speaker 5: could be a that wears you out, like trying to
Speaker 5: take people down. If it doesn't work, it kind of
Speaker 5: like hurts your gas tank. What do you how do
Speaker 5: you see it going JP or how How do you
Speaker 5: think Mike should.
Speaker 2: Go about it?
Speaker 3: I mean the same way everybody else in the world
Speaker 3: thinks Mike should go about it.
Speaker 2: I know he never will. I do think he'll.
Speaker 3: I think he's gonna go for more takedowns than people
Speaker 3: are thinking, just because I think he wants a massive
Speaker 3: like slam. Yeah, and I think he wants to add that,
Speaker 3: so he'll probably try that in the first round and
Speaker 3: I bet he will get one.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Then he'll probably in the second round, probably the standout
Speaker 3: and you can't.
Speaker 5: Yeah, the thing like for Mike, it could potentially be
Speaker 5: born because I think Mike needs to wait for his opportunity,
Speaker 5: like be patient to try to get a take down.
Speaker 5: Because if you're if you're president, Connor Connor's very good
Speaker 5: at like counter striking, like understanding. When Mike drops his head,
Speaker 5: just binking him, he's gonna have to wait for Connor
Speaker 5: to make me that's that's.
Speaker 2: That's what I that's like good at fighting backwards. Yes,
Speaker 2: there you go. Yes, that's a cool line I fit.
Speaker 4: But like, yeah, I when Mike's is in the bus
Speaker 4: and he says warrior spirit, I want to make it
Speaker 4: a bloodbath, It's like, all right, great, But let's say
Speaker 4: he does take the game plan intwo, I'm gonna be
Speaker 4: the smartest way, easiest path to victory as possible. When
Speaker 4: you start hearing the booze, let's say this in the
Speaker 4: sphere of them kind of just dancing around each other,
Speaker 4: where's Mike's mental of being like, yeah, fuck it, I'm
Speaker 4: gonna have to just.
Speaker 2: Go And he's wanting to be like fuck it, He's
Speaker 2: gonna go out there swinging out of it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but I think even when if Mike tries to
Speaker 3: wrestler won't be boring because he does everything so violently.
Speaker 3: It's not like he's not gonna be like I don't know,
Speaker 3: like some of these other guys that just are no,
Speaker 3: no doubting.
Speaker 5: But the wrestling to happen, I think it has to
Speaker 5: happen from like a patient standpoint to where maybe that's
Speaker 5: where he's sinking because if he if he tries to
Speaker 5: go after him again, not only are you making yourself
Speaker 5: more vulnerable and playing into a strengthen connors of being
Speaker 5: a great fighter backing up, but uh, then if you
Speaker 5: fail on takedowns, you're where you're wearing yourself out.
Speaker 2: You're wearing yourself out, and that's not where you want
Speaker 2: to be.
Speaker 4: Maybe just take the d as approach and just slap
Speaker 4: that front leg for a while. Yeah, just kick that
Speaker 4: front calf over and over and over again.
Speaker 2: I don't know, I feel like the titanium shin bone
Speaker 2: failure Mike. Mike has a path to win this fight.
Speaker 2: It's the impatience that worries me. I mean, I'm sure
Speaker 2: he's probably thinking, man, it'll be sick to knock him out.
Speaker 5: There's so many mental games. Yeah, just throwing in there.
Speaker 5: It's like we can make up this uh uh strategy.
Speaker 5: That strategy can be thought of. And he's like, Okay,
Speaker 5: I'm a surprise everybody by going in just going fucking nuts.
Speaker 5: But it won't be surprising anybody if he goes nuts.
Speaker 2: Yeah, fair, Yeah, yeah, should we get to the uh
Speaker 2: twisted question? Yeah, I'm down. It's been a good pause.
Speaker 2: It's been a fun pose. Yeah.
Speaker 5: Twisted question brought to us by Twisted Tea, the smoothest
Speaker 5: hard icy out there. It's holiday season, football games and
Speaker 5: game days, playoffs are coming. Keep it twisted with Twisted Tea.
Speaker 5: Bring in the new year with the Twisted Tea today.
Speaker 5: This question is brought to us not only by Twisted Tea,
Speaker 5: but Mitch. He gets to start off the new year.
Speaker 5: Maybe he'll start off with some better questions, Mitchie.
Speaker 8: This one is from Ryan Sireki. You're not doing the
Speaker 8: question no on Instagram. Twisted question for the boys. Would
Speaker 8: you take one continuous twenty four hour shit once a
Speaker 8: year or full on shit yourself once a.
Speaker 5: Year, full on ship myself once a year? I think
Speaker 5: how you think about that? Think about the time you
Speaker 5: get just shitt by yourself, think.
Speaker 2: About it worked, Yeah, yeah, your legs with your legs
Speaker 2: would fall asleep after an hour, Like I got twenty
Speaker 2: three more hours of this, and think about this.
Speaker 5: You ain't gonna be thinking about your legs if you
Speaker 5: got shit coming out of you for twenty four hours straight,
Speaker 5: is not gonna hit yeh.
Speaker 2: Think about this.
Speaker 4: Though it's been a rough day, maybe the boys there's
Speaker 4: a big altercation, it's been long, blah blah blah.
Speaker 2: You go home, Ruse yelling, Charles bitching at you.
Speaker 4: Where you're gonna go take those five minutes. She knows
Speaker 4: you shit once a year for twenty four hours. You
Speaker 4: can't go take five minutes in the bathroom to yourself,
Speaker 4: scroll the scroll the phone a little bit.
Speaker 2: Pay it still on you, just saying that this is
Speaker 2: the part shitting yourself.
Speaker 4: I'm saying, if you only shit yourself twenty four hours
Speaker 4: one time of year, then there's no that.
Speaker 2: Classic dad move. You're like, I you to the bathroom,
Speaker 2: will be right back.
Speaker 5: That's a great point. Yeah, but if you just think
Speaker 5: of the upside of shitting. But you're also talking about
Speaker 5: the upside of shitting, Yes, And I'm thinking shit my
Speaker 5: pants once a year. It's like do I get to
Speaker 5: pick if so? Yeah, okay, if not, it's like that'll
Speaker 5: be funny as hell. Then.
Speaker 4: I mean, I'm just on the bus one day and
Speaker 4: I just shiit my pants, like you know it is,
Speaker 4: I gotta get out of here. I'll be right back. Yeah,
Speaker 4: just keep a change of clothes in the back at
Speaker 4: all times. To me, that's like that's an easy way.
Speaker 2: Sold sold for one Mitch. What's what's Yeah, what's the
Speaker 2: dub for Mitch? I thought that. I thought that Actually, Uh, I.
Speaker 4: Would say if it's like, woul anybody take the twenty
Speaker 4: four hour ship?
Speaker 2: Yeah, with anybody on the twenty four hour ship? And
Speaker 2: then got swayed. No, I was on the twenty four
Speaker 2: hour ship?
Speaker 8: Did you.
Speaker 2: Can't play at each other? I?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 8: You saying saying the the uh like takes some five
Speaker 8: minutes away and have some time by yourself.
Speaker 2: That's what switched me. Yeah.
Speaker 4: So I guess a good twisted question would be like
Speaker 4: the ending multiple choices, like everybody walks away like the
Speaker 4: best I think the best twisted question we've had is
Speaker 4: the miss every light or make every light or the
Speaker 4: best parking spot because we've walked away and we all
Speaker 4: still have our our choices and the reason why we
Speaker 4: have those choices. But the ship thing, it's like we
Speaker 4: all came to inclusion.
Speaker 2: Imagine wiping after a twenty four hour No, god, oh
Speaker 2: I think it's the same. Yeah, probably gonna be the same.
Speaker 4: Clean up right about all the flushing you gotta do
Speaker 4: because if that bowl get filled up?
Speaker 8: Die?
Speaker 2: Could you could die? You can legit die? Yeah, it
Speaker 2: placed an IV.
Speaker 4: You gonna have to and then place an IV on
Speaker 4: you while you're shipping there smelling it.
Speaker 2: Got to eat in the corner with that.
Speaker 4: Oh my god, and you know, like fifteen minutes from
Speaker 4: now that thing's coming out of you.
Speaker 2: Will said, it can't be that bad.
Speaker 5: On the wiping, On the wiping, think of how oh yeah,
Speaker 5: oh the wiping part. Your buttholes open for twenty four hours. Yeah,
Speaker 5: but it's still gonna you still gotta wipe it the same.
Speaker 5: You canna be raw, oh do you?
Speaker 4: Because you're wipe in between ships because you have to flush, right,
Speaker 4: it's gonna be just.
Speaker 2: Sit and flush, you shit, the courtesy flush.
Speaker 4: You have your asshole, all your has been worked once
Speaker 4: and then your essentially feeding ship through your asshole, rubbing
Speaker 4: against it. You're you're talking about, but no, it's you're
Speaker 4: talking about now, you're talking about blood.
Speaker 5: But I'm assuming in this hypothetical situation that my body
Speaker 5: is built to do that. If I'm only shitting once
Speaker 5: a year, like I say, okay, here it comes, Yeah,
Speaker 5: I got to loosen up and know it's how to work.
Speaker 2: I guess.
Speaker 4: I guess you would be right, because if your body
Speaker 4: wasn't built for that, you're legit dying the first time
Speaker 4: it happens.
Speaker 2: You might be dying if you never ship for the
Speaker 2: other three hundred and sixty four days. That's correct too.
Speaker 2: I think like a one time, one time dispense, At
Speaker 2: least that's what it sounds.
Speaker 5: I think he's trying to make it seem like, but
Speaker 5: you just get all your shitting out of the way
Speaker 5: in one time, which I don't think. There's when you
Speaker 5: said that that that to me is like you get
Speaker 5: the upside of shitting every day, sometimes a couple, sometimes three.
Speaker 5: You ship three times a day, you get that looked at.
Speaker 5: I think you'd rather swallow is free. I think two's healthy.
Speaker 5: I think two's healthy. I think three is fine. But
Speaker 5: you know it ain't coming out solid. Is it always
Speaker 5: coming out solid?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 5: Maybe? All right, maybe he is good. Maybe I'm fucked up. Yeah,
Speaker 5: maybe I need shit more.
Speaker 2: I know I'm fucked up.
Speaker 8: Once in the morning, after lunch, and then after dinner.
Speaker 5: See, I'm usually once in the morning and then once
Speaker 5: in the late afternoon or early evening whenever I'm finding
Speaker 5: that moment if I'm picking my shot. Okay, So all right,
Speaker 5: I gotta go to the restroom. It's gonna be a minute.
Speaker 5: Well you don't get that with twenty four hours? Yeah right, yeah,
Speaker 5: do you need that?
Speaker 2: It's your time. It's for you.
Speaker 4: You guys, really wrap this thing up. Yeah, for those
Speaker 4: of you who stuck stuck around for this long. Next week,
Speaker 4: I believe I'm correcting saying this next week there will
Speaker 4: be a new addition of busting with the Boys.
