Speaker 1: certain contracts, how Kyle had a better year, had a
Speaker 1: year where he played lights out and didn't make the
Speaker 1: Pro Bowl compared to a year to where he made
Speaker 1: the Pro Bowl, and how confusing the Pro Bowl can

Speaker 1: again to get it out, to get out in front
Speaker 1: of it for for those new listening, new old whatever
Speaker 1: you know, when while we're in the season, these episodes
Speaker 1: are pre recorded, so we've already done podcasting and have
Speaker 1: our library built up throughout the year. A lot of
Speaker 1: fun Spctober episodes coming up, but with our guests, we
Speaker 1: have everything in a library. That way, you guys know
Speaker 1: and understand that we aren't podcasting during the season. The
Speaker 1: only thing you're gonna get fresh are these introductions because
Speaker 1: I gotta do an intro because we never know which
Speaker 1: ones are gonna drop. But so you guys know we're
Speaker 1: not podcasting throughout the year, especially the boy Taylor. It's
Speaker 1: just it needs to be known that we're not fucking
Speaker 1: podcasting in the year, because you know, you drop a game,
Speaker 1: you lose a game, people want to find ways to
Speaker 1: come after you.
Speaker 2: Hey, why don't you stop worrying about the podcast? YadA, YadA, YadA.
Speaker 1: You know, you gotta let it be known that we're
Speaker 1: not podcasting, that we're very much focused on football throughout
Speaker 1: the year. So uh so, yeah, big another big update.
Speaker 1: We just had a huge for the boys drop a
Speaker 1: lot of Titans, a lot of Titans gear go cop
Speaker 1: that merge on barstool sports dot Com under the brand
Speaker 1: Busting with the Boys. Um yeah, dude, stoked about this year,
Speaker 1: stoked about it. We're already We're already planning to make
Speaker 1: a freaking Clowny. Sure, dudeie, we gotta we gotta embrace
Speaker 1: Clowney being the whole clown thing that everybody the inside
Speaker 1: joke on on. We gotta make a nice spooky shirt
Speaker 1: for Clowney. So we got that in the works. But
Speaker 1: other than that, we we're gonna get wrong with this episode.
Speaker 1: Before we get wrong with this episode, we gotta shout
Speaker 1: out the boys from Whoop.
Speaker 2: You might be wondering what Woop is.
Speaker 1: Woop is a fitness tracker that provides personalized insights on
Speaker 1: the performance of your sleep, how recovered your body is,
Speaker 1: and how much stress you put on your body throughout
Speaker 1: the day from your workouts and normal.
Speaker 2: Stressors of life.
Speaker 1: To me, if you're an athlete or you know of
Speaker 1: an athlete, it's a no brainer that every athlete and
Speaker 1: fitness junk he needs to be strapped up with a whoop.
Speaker 1: I have my woop on twenty four to seven. I
Speaker 1: tape over it during practice so I can keep my
Speaker 1: whoop strap on. That way, when I get inside, I
Speaker 1: can collect the data on how much strain UP put
Speaker 1: on my body a practice to then tell me how
Speaker 1: much I need.
Speaker 2: To be working out.
Speaker 1: Because you don't want to overtrain, and then it also
Speaker 1: tells me how I can set up for the best
Speaker 1: sleep each night to get recovered for the next day.
Speaker 1: It gives you dead on sleep, your HRV, which is
Speaker 1: your heart rate variability, you're resting heart rate, your respiratory rate,
Speaker 1: how much you're in rim deep light sleep, how much
Speaker 1: you're awake, how many disturbances you add, all of it,
Speaker 1: and then it gives you a recovery score the next
Speaker 1: day on how well you are recovered and if you
Speaker 1: should work out the next day, how much strain you
Speaker 1: should put on yourself the next day.
Speaker 2: All of it. Dude, it's fucking awesome.
Speaker 1: You might be sitting in there camp if I'm not
Speaker 1: an athlete or fitness junkie, could I what could I
Speaker 1: get out of a whoop?
Speaker 2: You can get a shipload out of it. Here's why
Speaker 2: you can journal.
Speaker 1: So you give the whoop, You give the app feedback
Speaker 1: on stressors, if you're taking if you've been stressed out
Speaker 1: throughout you know your day, if you're sharing your bed,
Speaker 1: whether you feel a sense of purpose, how you how's
Speaker 1: your quality of life been? Did you have caffeine? Are
Speaker 1: you looking at screens? Like all this stuff that you
Speaker 1: can put in and it runs it through this you
Speaker 1: know their system. This algorithm is community and it gives
Speaker 1: you feedback on how you need to be approaching your
Speaker 1: next day. So if you don't feel like you're getting
Speaker 1: a lot of sleep, you're probably let probably not in
Speaker 1: the Woop can tell you why, and the Whoop will
Speaker 1: also tell you how to improve because again it is
Speaker 1: a big community to where Woop is always sending articles
Speaker 1: and they just they make you feel part of something.
Speaker 1: So even if you're not an athlete, I'm a huge
Speaker 1: believer in the Whoop strap and how it can help
Speaker 1: your quality of life, your day to day routine, how
Speaker 1: you can set yourself up in a better day to
Speaker 1: day routine, all from data that you're getting. There's no
Speaker 1: you know, it's not a watch or anything like that.
Speaker 1: It's literally tracking all the best, all the best data
Speaker 1: in your performance. For our listeners, we get fifteen percent off.
Speaker 1: Use code busting a checkout. Go to Whoop dot com,
Speaker 1: woop dot com and enter busting a checkout to say
Speaker 1: fifteen percent sleep better, recover faster, train smarter, and go
Speaker 1: throughout your day better and optimize yourself. Off with Whoop
Speaker 1: with the Boys, all of it. Drop the fucking hook, Blossie.
Speaker 3: This episode of Busting with the Boys The Boys is
Speaker 3: presented by Barstool Sports.
Speaker 4: Already ten minutes behind, let's go, Kyle, Yes, Kyle, Hey, Kyle.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and you're already having a good time chat about
Speaker 5: Nashville and quarantine and Taylor putting this kid down for
Speaker 5: a nap, which you know exactly what that's like at
Speaker 5: one pm.
Speaker 6: Uh, I'll tell you what we made.
Speaker 4: We made leaps and bounds today, Kyle. I was putting
Speaker 4: my daughter down and she's been going through a little bit.
Speaker 4: I don't know how hold of your kids?
Speaker 5: Three three and one?
Speaker 6: Three three are your twins?
Speaker 5: Yeah? Girls that are three?
Speaker 4: And then I'll tell you I dated twins when I
Speaker 4: first got here to Nashville, and.
Speaker 6: Scary stuff.
Speaker 5: Scary stuff them, both of them.
Speaker 4: One one was more serious than the other for sure,
Speaker 4: But it was kind of a weird gig for a second.
Speaker 6: Man, it was weird. But twins is crazy. I didn't
Speaker 6: mean for the kind of turn. I apologize. Actually feel
Speaker 6: awful for even saying that.
Speaker 5: No, not at all. It is crazy though, Like you
Speaker 5: know people all the time that have kids, they're like, oh,
Speaker 5: you know, three, you know, two, you got to entertain
Speaker 5: them all day long, blah blah blah, and twins like,
Speaker 5: it's like, send them on their way as long as
Speaker 5: you don't hear one of them screaming or yelling or crying.
Speaker 5: Like you know, they're hanging out, having a good time,
Speaker 5: entertaining one another. And I have to chase my one
Speaker 5: year old around all day because he's a monster. But
Speaker 5: the girls they just hang out.
Speaker 6: That's crazy, dude.
Speaker 4: Were you like, did could you imagine yourself in high school?
Speaker 4: Like looking at yourself now and being like, yeah, man,
Speaker 4: I'm I'm gonna have three kids.
Speaker 6: I have twin girls?
Speaker 5: No, and well, and there's no twins like anywhere in
Speaker 5: my family or my wife's family. So really it was
Speaker 5: like we were at our first ultrasound and the ultrasound
Speaker 5: tech was like, oh, you guys got twins in your family?
Speaker 6: No, what was that?
Speaker 2: Like?
Speaker 4: What was that like when you were sitting there where
Speaker 4: you're like, oh my god, dude, like this is about
Speaker 4: to be a bit of a deal now.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it was. It was crazy because you know, we
Speaker 5: we knew we wanted to have kids shortly after we
Speaker 5: got married, and so you know, the fact that we
Speaker 5: found out we were pregnant. Not a surprise, and it
Speaker 5: was actually wow. We were out in LA in Hollywood.
Speaker 5: I was training and she, my wife, was having a
Speaker 5: complications and she was like, oh, you know, I probably
Speaker 5: had a miscarriage. Like, let's go to the emergency room.
Speaker 5: We went all over Hollywood trying to find an emergency
Speaker 5: room and it was like four hour wait, six hour wait,
Speaker 5: eight hour wait, and they were like, all right, it's
Speaker 5: crew this. We drove to Orange County, which you know,
Speaker 5: forty five miles and ended up taking three hours, so
Speaker 5: we probably should have just stayed at the first emergency carener.
Speaker 5: And then we got the ultrasound and they're like, oh, no,
Speaker 5: heartbeat's good, everything's good. And the ultrasound tech looked at
Speaker 5: us sideways and was like, you guys got twins in
Speaker 5: your family. We were like, no, you do now, So
Speaker 5: I like I literally remember sitting there like, oh my god,
Speaker 5: please be sure, please, I'm pretty sure.
Speaker 6: Yeah, no question, dude.
Speaker 4: I wanted I wanted boys so bad, I really did.
Speaker 6: And I was like kind of like on the fence
Speaker 6: and myment you know, hey, if we have a boy
Speaker 6: or girl, it's totally fine. In my head. I'm crossing
Speaker 6: my fingers big time for a boy, like.
Speaker 4: You need that out there playing a little catch with
Speaker 4: the old kid.
Speaker 6: Hey, listen, don't do drugs. Listen, those are bad.
Speaker 4: Feel like that's the best parenting tool you have is
Speaker 4: to sit there listen.
Speaker 6: No means no, just what it is, my buddy, all right,
Speaker 6: you know what I'm saying. We'll catch. And I found
Speaker 6: out I was having a girl, and I started sweating.
Speaker 2: My guy.
Speaker 6: I was like, things are just different now.
Speaker 4: But I think it was the best thing for me because, like,
Speaker 4: I don't know about you, but it definitely slowed me down.
Speaker 6: Maybe more patient, helped me understand a little bit more.
Speaker 5: Oh no, I wouldn't trade having twin girls for the world.
Speaker 5: And I remember, you know, fast forward ten weeks after
Speaker 5: we found out we're having kids, and we found out
Speaker 5: the gender, and you know, first one is a girl.
Speaker 5: At the time, we didn't know they're ideas, so they
Speaker 5: actually thought they were fraternal and I'm like, that's okay,
Speaker 5: Like there's still one more, like maybe we can have
Speaker 5: boy and girl and we can knock this thing out
Speaker 5: one try. And they wouldn't tell us the second one,
Speaker 5: she's the ultrasound tech was like, no, I can't see,
Speaker 5: you know, and I can't guarantee that this is male
Speaker 5: or female. So I just will wait till Yeah, we'll
Speaker 5: wait till twenty weeks and and see at that ultrasound.
Speaker 5: So in my head, I'm like holding out hope for
Speaker 5: four more weeks, like, okay, there's there's still a chance.
Speaker 5: We got we got a boy, one boy, one girl.
Speaker 5: And at twenty weeks they're like nope, it's two girls.
Speaker 5: Like no, and my wife's like, are you okay? Is
Speaker 5: everything ore?
Speaker 1: Two girls just out the gate, dude, three to one
Speaker 1: in the house.
Speaker 6: Your wife's your wife's pregnant with twins.
Speaker 4: And she gently just puts her hand on your knee
Speaker 4: and goes, hey, do you want to talk about it?
Speaker 6: Are you gonna be okay?
Speaker 5: Are you okay? Even like as we left left the
Speaker 5: doctor's office, we're in the car, she's like, are you
Speaker 5: sure you're okay? Like you seem a little upset. I'm like, no,
Speaker 5: I'll be. I definitely wanted boys, but you know, we'll
Speaker 5: figure it out, and.
Speaker 7: Now'll figure it out.
Speaker 5: If I would, you wouldn't trade it for the world.
Speaker 7: Were you scared for twins again.
Speaker 5: Yeah, so that that's what's like one of the crazy
Speaker 5: things about having multiples first, like your percent chance of
Speaker 5: having them again are extremely high. So, oh, got the single,
Speaker 5: you know, with our son the second time. But you know,
Speaker 5: my wife wants one more. I'm okay with one more.
Speaker 5: I mean she does pretty much everything anyways. I'm just
Speaker 5: here for support. But the chance of getting four and
Speaker 5: five together is very real. So we will never go
Speaker 5: for just five. Like, if we get four and it's
Speaker 5: just four, that's it. I'm gonna get snipped and we'll
Speaker 5: call it a day because I'm not going for five
Speaker 5: and getting five and six together. Now you're out of
Speaker 5: any standard vehicle and into the Mercedes Sprinter or the
Speaker 5: fourteen passenger Ford Eco Boost or whatever that is. You know,
Speaker 5: so you know we won't be going for number five,
Speaker 5: that's for sure.
Speaker 4: You start to get in that six range, that dirty
Speaker 4: half doesn't look you're you're officially in that cheaper by
Speaker 4: the dozen kind of feel.
Speaker 6: You're waking up flopping pancakes.
Speaker 4: Pancakes are flopping ass everywhere, dude, just trying to figure
Speaker 4: out what the fuck is going on.
Speaker 6: Man, It's terrifying. Shit circus but four kids is a lot, man.
Speaker 6: I mean, if you do, you think, yeah.
Speaker 5: There's no difference after you know, one to two is
Speaker 5: the biggest adjustment. And we never made that adjustment because
Speaker 5: we came right out of the gates with two. So
Speaker 5: two to three, like my son, there were times you'd
Speaker 5: be like, oh, where's Henry, Like oh, we forgot we
Speaker 5: even had a third kid, because it's just one. Like
Speaker 5: one is so easy once you've had two. So I
Speaker 5: bet three to four is just adding, you know, field
Speaker 5: to the fire. Was making the circus a little more crazy.
Speaker 1: You might get, you might get, you might get twins, though,
Speaker 1: knock on with I don't want to put that on you.
Speaker 5: But we're we're okay with that because five four again,
Speaker 5: you go four to five, We're good. We we can
Speaker 5: fit in any regular car has seven seats, we're good.
Speaker 5: We got the suv. You add that six and you
Speaker 5: got eight people in your family. You're not fitting anywhere
Speaker 5: like dinner reservations, cars like nothing is built for eight.
Speaker 7: What two big contracts can pay for something?
Speaker 6: Now, hey, I tell you to thirty pieces.
Speaker 5: We're doing okay, but.
Speaker 4: Says it says the crown molding in the background we're
Speaker 4: doing okay, a Greek god's house, dude.
Speaker 6: You like, who's Who's that Socrates's house? You're living right there, Dude.
Speaker 5: I don't want all of our money to go to
Speaker 5: college tuition. And that's for sure. I know who knows
Speaker 5: what it's going to be like eighteen years from now.
Speaker 4: I'm sure that extra kids, at least one is going
Speaker 4: to get a scholarship, at least one.
Speaker 7: You gotta get one, dude.
Speaker 5: Yeah, we'll put that pressure on either scholarship or student loans,
Speaker 5: like dad, student loans, Like are you kidding me?
Speaker 6: Yeah, you gotta pay for you gotta work your ass.

Speaker 6: A couple of.
Speaker 4: Thirty pieces, get yourself a nice little jet fit the
Speaker 4: kids on there, get down to work, mister piece himself.
Speaker 4: When we saw you in Miami, we know you came
Speaker 4: down to like a little citation X right there before.
Speaker 7: You see his hair too, how sleek it was. Everything else.
Speaker 4: There's there's a there's a picture of you they got
Speaker 4: to find when you're playing Notre Dame. When I was
Speaker 4: looking you up yesterday, look like you're an extra from
Speaker 4: American History X.
Speaker 6: You look like an absolute skinhead, dude.
Speaker 5: Same. So spring game we had saintan Baldricks. One of
Speaker 5: my roommates was like head of the deal. So we
Speaker 5: would all shave our heads the week of the spring
Speaker 5: game for the kids with cancer that had the bald heads,
Speaker 5: and so we they shaved them with just like the
Speaker 5: regular clippers. And then one of my buddies was like, dude,
Speaker 5: you should totally bick your head like it's already all
Speaker 5: the way down, like just go ahead clean it off
Speaker 5: the rest of the way for the spring game. And
Speaker 5: that's honestly the last time I shaved. I shaved my
Speaker 5: face with the vic and also my head, and that's
Speaker 5: the last time I shaved my face with a razor.
Speaker 5: Like I just won't do it. I I whenever I
Speaker 5: get my haircut, get my beard trim and carry on.
Speaker 6: Yeah, that is what it is. I mean, it's a
Speaker 6: nice thing you did for the kids, but also it's
Speaker 6: you know that bicken. It ain't fun. It ain't fun.
Speaker 4: Another place that wasn't very fun was I was watching
Speaker 4: some videos of you. I think it was two thousand
Speaker 4: and nine or ten, was like your last year because
Speaker 4: you left as a junior.
Speaker 5: Right, yes, yeah, twenty ten was my last season on Notre.
Speaker 6: Dame YEP twenty ten. I remember that. I was a
Speaker 6: redshirt sophomore.
Speaker 4: We were playing you guys, and like three minutes left
Speaker 4: in the game, the boy just catches a seam route
Speaker 4: up the middle.
Speaker 6: Thought you just put it away, didn't you. You thought
Speaker 6: I'm a hero.
Speaker 5: Literally, I remember going to the sideline tired of shit.
Speaker 5: I mean, I've never run ninety five yards in my
Speaker 5: life outside of maybe the one ten you run in
Speaker 5: the summertime right and sit on the bench. It was like,
Speaker 5: remember that game. It was just the weather was just awful.
Speaker 5: It was like on and off rain, cloudy, and sure
Speaker 5: enough we scored. I don't even know we went up
Speaker 5: by lesson a touchdown because Dinard proceeded to march right
Speaker 5: down the field and end the game with a touchdown.
Speaker 5: But sun comes out. It was like, Oh, this is
Speaker 5: gonna be awesome. We're gonna have a great time tonight.
Speaker 5: Go to the bars. Well, like I said, Gard with
Speaker 5: issues untied goes right out in the field and makes
Speaker 5: everyone on our defense effect they were standing in dried
Speaker 5: semen and it was that was it. So it was
Speaker 5: a short lived. This is awesome because I just sat
Speaker 5: there and watched him go right down the field and score.
Speaker 4: Then was the most electric, one of the most electric
Speaker 4: football players of all time, most underrated electric football player
Speaker 4: of all time.
Speaker 6: Does that make sense?
Speaker 1: Oh there, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, no, that made sense,
Speaker 1: And that actually reminds me. You guys did have some
Speaker 1: banger little rivalries in that little era, like Notre Dame
Speaker 1: versus basically Robinson basically.
Speaker 5: The year before the year before, we lost on the
Speaker 5: last drive of the game, too, Tate.
Speaker 6: For That's what I'm saying, right Tate for the ultimate
Speaker 6: funck up.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I can tell you what.
Speaker 6: I don't know what Date is doing anymore that he
Speaker 6: said what he.
Speaker 5: Said, lost on my last possession of that game too.

Speaker 1: say fifteen percent on the boys.
Speaker 2: Yeah, shout out NFL. So they take it, dude, go
Speaker 2: get it.
Speaker 4: Back to the episode, dude, I think so when I
Speaker 4: was at Michigan, we went like one in three versus everybody,
Speaker 4: Like I was one and three versus Iowa one and
Speaker 4: three versus Ohio State one and three, like one and
Speaker 4: three versus everybody, Notre Dame. I think I lost one time,
Speaker 4: and that was the year you guys went to the
Speaker 4: National championship game.
Speaker 6: You weren't there anymore.
Speaker 5: But yeah, that's that's I feel like that's how I was.
Speaker 5: I feel like I was one and two against everybody,
Speaker 5: one and two against you guys, one and two against
Speaker 5: weird Place, one and two, yeah, sorry, three and out.
Speaker 7: I was three and done, dude.
Speaker 5: Yeah, one and two against Stanford, one and two against
Speaker 5: USC Like we literally were one and two against everybody
Speaker 5: except for Purdue, but pretty much everybody's two and oh
Speaker 5: three and oh whatever it is againstdue.
Speaker 6: Notre Dame. Sorry will, I'm going to interrupt you, zoo,
Speaker 6: it is what it is Zoom podcast.
Speaker 1: This is for you guys. Who do you think is
Speaker 1: the more story program on a Michigan and Notre Dame.
Speaker 6: It's an easy answer.
Speaker 5: Here's an easy So you guys were wins, don't you.
Speaker 4: Well, yeah, no question, but the big house and don't
Speaker 4: play crumble with me, Kyle, don't come on the staying
Speaker 4: with your crown molding behind us and play neither.
Speaker 5: Neither one of us have won a damn thing in
Speaker 5: the last twenty years.
Speaker 6: So yeah, we're both.
Speaker 5: Yeah, we're hanging onto our nineteen eighty eight national championship
Speaker 5: like that's the last time we wanted.
Speaker 7: Who are you saying?
Speaker 5: Oh, I'm saying that's for sure. But you know I
Speaker 5: have my reason.
Speaker 6: We'll go We'll go ahead. What's your reason. We'll give
Speaker 6: me one reason.
Speaker 5: Well, and I'm not even certain. I think we may
Speaker 5: have passed you guys and wins. So we need to
Speaker 5: be wrong, is it? I don't know.
Speaker 6: I just want to say that.
Speaker 7: You got Hey, you guys, go at it. I'll look
Speaker 7: it up.
Speaker 5: Yeah, you look it up. No, but I will say
Speaker 5: one of my first college visits was Michigan. It was
Speaker 5: actually the first rain delay in Michigan history might have
Speaker 5: played a reason why I didn't go to Michigan. We
Speaker 5: had to sit through a thirty minute rainde lay against
Speaker 5: like Central Michigan or something. But I only played at
Speaker 5: the Big House once. It was right after they put
Speaker 5: the boxes on both sides, so when I went on
Speaker 5: my visit in high school, there weren't for the skyboxes,
Speaker 5: and then they were there. That place was rocking. Like
Speaker 5: I said, we lost on the last possession, so it
Speaker 5: was a great game. Another one where we scored late
Speaker 5: in the game and then you all answered and ended
Speaker 5: it right away. But I think we have more national
Speaker 5: championships than you guys, so you know, I can I
Speaker 5: can hang our hat on that one, even though most
Speaker 5: of them were in like the forties and fifties and
Speaker 5: right after World War Two.
Speaker 6: But yeah, well the mission doesn't have a lot of
Speaker 6: national shape.
Speaker 4: I think we have eleven national championships and one came
Speaker 4: after nineteen forty two, so it's.
Speaker 6: A little tough. That's Michigan doing their best.
Speaker 5: Are all right?
Speaker 1: You got hey, and and this is because you guys
Speaker 1: played against each other, Like if we're throwing, we get
Speaker 1: throw Nebraskan here too.
Speaker 7: But we won't do it. Games played forty four. What
Speaker 7: are you gonna say, Kyle?
Speaker 5: I was going to ask if you guys were even
Speaker 5: in the top five in total wins.
Speaker 4: No, no, uh no, no, we're close though, we're close.
Speaker 7: We're up there with Natties.
Speaker 1: Here we go wins our games played forty four, Michigan
Speaker 1: leads twenty five to eighteen. Wow moost home wins Michigan fifteen.
Speaker 1: Most road wins Michigan nine, neutral site wins. There's only
Speaker 1: been one Michigan want to zero biggest, biggest blowout is
Speaker 1: Michigan in recent years two thousand and three and two
Speaker 1: thousand and seven, thirty eight.
Speaker 5: I remember two thousand and seven, two thousand and seven,
Speaker 5: nothing that one. I remember watching that one that was
Speaker 5: my senior high school and it was I think their
Speaker 5: name was like three and nine. That year Jimmy Claston
Speaker 5: got sacked like fourteen times in the Big House and
Speaker 5: John Sullivan was snapping the ball over his head. It
Speaker 5: was bad. I remember watching that one. That was brutal.
Speaker 6: Jimmy Classon was like the Truth at Notre Dame. He
Speaker 6: was like the he was like the next coming of Jesus.
Speaker 6: He was touchdown Jesus.
Speaker 5: So my my sophomore year in nine on on offense,
Speaker 5: we Golden Tate, Michael Floyd, running back super underrated, had
Speaker 5: an unbelievable pro career in Detroit. Was Theo Riddick. THEO
Speaker 5: was like super shifty, Armando Allen was a running back
Speaker 5: that played in the league for a while, myself and
Speaker 5: Tyler Eiffert at tight end. I mean, we had like
Speaker 5: four dudes that were either a thousand yard receiver or
Speaker 5: Pro bowler in the NFL, just on offense and we
Speaker 5: went six and six.
Speaker 6: That's wow. If that's not coaching, I don't know what is.
Speaker 5: We couldn't stop a nosebleed. I mean, like you know,
Speaker 5: like I said, we lost to you guys on the
Speaker 5: last drive of the game after scoring to go up
Speaker 5: with like a little over a minute left. If we
Speaker 5: had the ball at the end of the game, you know,
Speaker 5: it was we had a chance to win it. If
Speaker 5: we didn't have the ball at the end of the game,
Speaker 5: we usually had just scored, and it was either we
Speaker 5: got to stop the six games we won, we got
Speaker 5: to stop the six games we didn't. Obviously we know
Speaker 5: how that ended.
Speaker 4: You guys had some players on defense too. The US
Speaker 4: had Harrison a little later after you. Mantitao was there him, And.
Speaker 7: That's a good he that's a good little that's a
Speaker 7: good lott.
Speaker 1: What was your genuine reaction when you found about the
Speaker 1: Manti tail thing? When that came to light his senior year?
Speaker 5: So I was gone. I had been gone for a
Speaker 5: couple of years, but uh, that was the national championship year,
Speaker 5: which my class. A lot of my buddies were still
Speaker 5: there as fifth year seniors, and I remember them kind
Speaker 5: of throughout the course of the year, like that storyline started,
Speaker 5: maybe even the Michigan game. I think you guys played
Speaker 5: at Notre Dame that year and Manti's grandma, uh and
Speaker 5: girlfriend passed away that week, and so obviously it was
Speaker 5: just like gaining steam, gaining steam, And a lot of
Speaker 5: the guys on the team that I were talking to
Speaker 5: were like, this guy, like, it's not even he doesn't
Speaker 5: even talk to her, Like this whole like girlfriend thing.
Speaker 5: People keep making it a huge deal, and then you know,
Speaker 5: once in media gets told of a storyline, it's kind
Speaker 5: of hard to backtrack and be like, oh, well, I
Speaker 5: really don't have a girlfriend, so we'll just ride it. Out,
Speaker 5: never thinking that this girlfriend would come out to be
Speaker 5: a guy that you talked to on the phone three times,
Speaker 5: So you couldn't really backpedal at that point. But yeah,
Speaker 5: so when when the story came out, I wasn't surprised
Speaker 5: that it was kind of all fake, because there was
Speaker 5: some you know, wishy washy feelings from some of my
Speaker 5: buddies that were there when it was going on. But
Speaker 5: to hear how the whole thing was was kind of
Speaker 5: put together was pretty funny.
Speaker 4: Dude, You're like a unanimous All American probably first round pick,
Speaker 4: and what do you what do you not even facetiming?
Speaker 6: You're not even you're even facetiming with the girl. You're
Speaker 6: just regular dial up phone whispering runner.
Speaker 5: Notre dame, runner up for the Heisman.
Speaker 7: And you're like, you're like, it's kind of hard to backpedal.
Speaker 2: But he didn't.
Speaker 7: He didn't just not backpedal. He cried on national television.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, Like, you know what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: Like he fully bought into.
Speaker 7: He needs to be somewhere in Hollywood.
Speaker 5: That's exactly what I said. He bought in, And once
Speaker 5: he bought in, he rode that way, Like you said,
Speaker 5: he went all the way. I mean I had to imagine,
Speaker 5: like never would he. They told me that he was
Speaker 5: at the college Football Awards, you know, the Home Depot
Speaker 5: Awards or whatever that they do in Orlando, I think,
Speaker 5: and just racking up the awards. He had an unbelievable season,
Speaker 5: and his phone rang from like the number that he
Speaker 5: associated with his girlfriend that apparently passed away, and it
Speaker 5: was like, oh shit, that's when it all started to
Speaker 5: fall apart.
Speaker 6: Oh my god.
Speaker 4: He sure like he had like the tire Woods effect
Speaker 4: because he was killing it. He was going to be
Speaker 4: a first round jetick, like unanimous first round jepick. There
Speaker 4: wasn't even an argument there. All this stuff comes out
Speaker 4: still a second round pick, right, But career never got going.
Speaker 4: I think that I honestly believe man Taitayo was crushed
Speaker 4: by this fick woman.
Speaker 6: Like his his confidence was killed who like who he was?
Speaker 4: His identity as a person was just totally taking and
Speaker 4: thrown out the window and never really recovered from it.
Speaker 5: No, I mean, you you hit the nail on the head,
Speaker 5: like the whole Tiger Woods thing.
Speaker 2: You know.
Speaker 5: Just think about like how much of sports are just
Speaker 5: like that confidence that you have and going out there
Speaker 5: and when you're a runner up for the Heisman and
Speaker 5: you lead the entire country and picks as a Mike linebacker.
Speaker 5: I mean, like you're just going into the game every
Speaker 5: week like I'm a baller, like let's do this laughing.
Speaker 5: And then when something, yeah, something like that happens, you
Speaker 5: gotta be just shook.
Speaker 6: The everything's over, everything's over.
Speaker 4: At that point that like I don't know, that thing
Speaker 4: blows me away because I like I've like weirdly been
Speaker 4: with Manti Tail, like my like my career, like barely
Speaker 4: been around him. Like we play in the All American
Speaker 4: Game together and it was like him and Matt Barkley
Speaker 4: both wore number five, both were our captains, and he
Speaker 4: was like the dude, right, and then the dude's been
Speaker 4: the dude since like before Marcus Mariota, like Manti Tail
Speaker 4: was like Hawaiians, like a Hawaii's mascot, Like there, you
Speaker 4: couldn't gowhere, That's truly.
Speaker 6: He couldn't live.
Speaker 4: And then Marcus came and I mean, Marcus can't even
Speaker 4: take a commercial flight to Hawaii, don't think without getting bombarded.
Speaker 5: You know.
Speaker 6: It's it's it's wild.

Speaker 6: But yeah, why did you why did you even want
Speaker 6: to go to Notre Dame in the first place? Like, what,
Speaker 6: what's the deal? Question?
Speaker 5: Real good question.
Speaker 6: Did you Did you slay in high school?
Speaker 5: Like? I mean, I had an okay high school career.
Speaker 5: I you know, I played in the Army All American Game.
Speaker 6: No, no, I don't care about football. I'm talking about you.
Speaker 6: And like you and girls tight end probably a five star.
Speaker 6: You weren't slaying like that. Oh that's okay.
Speaker 4: Then I know why you went to Notre Dame. They
Speaker 4: had all the rules, right, you can't go in the
Speaker 4: dorms or nothing like that.
Speaker 5: I tell people all the time, Like, you know, Notre
Speaker 5: Dame was a great place for me. Uh you know,
Speaker 5: Catholic kid from the West side of Cincinnati, it was.
Speaker 5: It was. I never grew up a Nerdame fan though,
Speaker 5: Like I literally remember my first my first visit at
Speaker 5: not Dame. I was like, oh, yeah, we'll check it out.
Speaker 5: You know. I'd been to Ohio State, Michigan, some of
Speaker 5: the other big ten schools that were all within four
Speaker 5: hours of home, and the biggest thing for me was
Speaker 5: going to pay for coach hy who had been in
Speaker 5: the NFL new tight ends, because our position is one
Speaker 5: like no matter where you go. As I left tackle,
Speaker 5: like you know, there really isn't much that affects you
Speaker 5: blocking the guy across from you. Same thing on defense,
Speaker 5: like as an as a as a linebacker, you know outside,
Speaker 5: Yeah you can be three four four three like that
Speaker 5: can play into it, but like as an inside backer,
Speaker 5: like you need to go make tackles. I didn't want
Speaker 5: to go somewhere where they're you know, the whole recruiting process.
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, we'll throw the ball, well through the ball,
Speaker 5: we'll three the ball. Hey guess what, We're going to
Speaker 5: put forty pounds on you and now you're going to
Speaker 5: block all the time. And you know, to me, that's
Speaker 5: kind of how how high State was. You know, I
Speaker 5: loved going to Ohio State. Love. I went to the
Speaker 5: Ohio State Michigan game one versus two, you know, unbelievable environment.
Speaker 5: But I looked at every one of their tight ends
Speaker 5: and they were all basically what I am now, two
Speaker 5: hundred and sixty five pound blockers. But I didn't want
Speaker 5: to quite choose that life as a eighteen year old
Speaker 5: when I still had the choice, so I knew coach
Speaker 5: Weis went to throw the rock around and use a
Speaker 5: bunch of tight ends. Actually Michigan and not just to
Speaker 5: talk up Michigan. Michigan was probably I would have gone
Speaker 5: to Michigan way before I went to Ohio State. But
Speaker 5: it was the coach car era and you know, Mike
Speaker 5: the board was the O c who was the tight
Speaker 5: end coach, and you know, they had three tight ends
Speaker 5: on the field most of the game. And I was like,
Speaker 5: I want to play right away, so this will be
Speaker 5: a sweet spot. And then you know Coach Carr was
Speaker 5: getting ready to retire, and you know that's that was
Speaker 5: what took it off. Took Michigan off the table for me.
Speaker 6: Well, yeah, then God didn't go to Michigan because if
Speaker 6: you went there.
Speaker 5: Three, I think I would have had three. I think
Speaker 5: I would have had three. I would have had Coach
Speaker 5: car won rich Rod one. And who was the last
Speaker 5: one that came in after Pretty Hope, Pretty Hope?
Speaker 2: Yeah, Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 4: Rich Rod never used tight ends. He like, no, like
Speaker 4: he was eleven personnel. I mean, there's a tight end there,
Speaker 4: but the guy was it was not.
Speaker 6: It wasn't like that.
Speaker 4: Kevin Koger. He was our tight end. He was a
Speaker 4: good type and I think he did a really good job.
Speaker 4: He's actually out at he's a tight ends coach for
Speaker 4: the Green Bay Packers now, so he's doing he's doing well.
Speaker 4: But it was never like if you're a tight end
Speaker 4: that those kind of college Yeah, exactly, you're not.
Speaker 6: It was a good move going to.
Speaker 2: Notre Dame, for sure.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean you got you were drafting the what
Speaker 1: second round, forty third overall, twenty eleven. Shout out the Boys,
Speaker 1: Minnesota Vikings. The Boys got we got you for like
Speaker 1: ten minutes. Let's talk about your NFL.
Speaker 2: Career a little bit.
Speaker 1: Talk about talk about some of the beginning. You You've
Speaker 1: made the Pro Bowl twice. Talk about your rookie year,
Speaker 1: your early years with the Vikings.
Speaker 5: So I think one of the best stories early in
Speaker 5: my career twenty twelve season, I was an alternate for
Speaker 5: the Pro Bowl, and you know, Tony Gonzalez was the
Speaker 5: tight end from the NFC that made it, and.
Speaker 7: I didn't believe on yours.
Speaker 5: No, he's got here there. So I'm an alternate for
Speaker 5: the Pro Bowl. Our season ends, I think we lost
Speaker 5: in the first round of the Playoffs, and we had
Speaker 5: like four weeks before the Pro Bowl and it was
Speaker 5: Tony and Jason and the Pro Bowl. Like these guys
Speaker 5: are both going like they go every year. It was
Speaker 5: still in Hawaii at the time, so I'm like, all right,
Speaker 5: it's off season. You know how it is. You start
Speaker 5: enjoying yourself, eating and drinking whatever you want. Early in
Speaker 5: my career, I played a lot heavier than I do now,
Speaker 5: Like I would have no joke, would play at like
Speaker 5: two sixty eight and let myself go a little bit.
Speaker 5: And sure enough, Tuesday of the Pro Bowl, I get
Speaker 5: a phone call that, hey, Tony's Tony's brothers graduating from
Speaker 5: the I think, like the La County Fire Department Academy,
Speaker 5: and he's not going, So do you want to go? Absolutely?
Speaker 5: I want to go, Like second year in the league,
Speaker 5: opportunity to go to the Pro Bowl. Who cares if
Speaker 5: I'm two hundred and eighty four pounds over them.
Speaker 6: That's a dude, that's a unit like Antonio Gates and a.
Speaker 5: White body out there, just massive. I mean, like I
Speaker 5: see pictures from that week, faces like this big round
Speaker 5: and so we go over there. Matt Kleil comes over
Speaker 5: later in the week as well. He was in alternate
Speaker 5: Trent Williams got hit in the head with the champagne
Speaker 5: bottle and the club on Thursday. So Friday morning he
Speaker 5: had like stitches in his I couldn't see. He couldn't
Speaker 5: put a helmet on. They call Matt, hey, you want
Speaker 5: to come over. He comes over even later than I did,
Speaker 5: and he was the opposite. He had a hard time
Speaker 5: keeping weight on. So we played in the game. He
Speaker 5: was left tackle at two hundred and eighty pounds. I
Speaker 5: played tight end at two eighty four and we ended
Speaker 5: up having a good time, great, great few days in Hawaii.
Speaker 5: But that's always laugh at people and they asked, you
Speaker 5: know what, wait, have you played at before? I'm like, well,
Speaker 5: I kind of played in the scrimmage at two hundred
Speaker 5: and eighty four pounds. But yeah, it was. It was
Speaker 5: a good time ate and drank a lot all week long.
Speaker 5: And people wonder why the Pro Bowl isn't competitive because
Speaker 5: they don't see the week leading up to the game.
Speaker 6: Yeah, the Pro Bowl leading up is It's the most
Speaker 6: fun thing ever, is it not.
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 5: And literally, for me at that point in my career,
Speaker 5: I wish the league would take it back to Hawaii
Speaker 5: for that reason. You know, Disney is great and it's
Speaker 5: awesome for families. There's a lot more to do in Orlando.
Speaker 5: But in Hawaii, we all stayed at the same hotel.
Speaker 5: There was one pool, one bar, and literally I remember,
Speaker 5: you know, walking past Peyton Manning and Champ Bailey, Jeff Saturday,
Speaker 5: like these just absolute legends that I looked up to
Speaker 5: my whole life as a football fan, and they're like, hey,
Speaker 5: you know, my first Pro Bowl. Go to the bar, like,
Speaker 5: get us drinks, get us. You know, they had these
Speaker 5: fried chicken wings that were just absolutely ridiculous. Probably had
Speaker 5: you know, multiple baskets of them a day, which helped
Speaker 5: me get to two eighty four for the game. But
Speaker 5: just the camaraderie of like everybody hanging out from the
Speaker 5: time we got back from walk through at eleven thirty
Speaker 5: in the morning until two or three o'clock at night.
Speaker 5: No one left the pool, no one left the bar,
Speaker 5: and it's just a huge celebration of a successful year.
Speaker 5: And then the game is just kind of an afterthought.
Speaker 5: We go out there, half fun, don't get hurt, and
Speaker 5: you know, if it gets close in the fourth quarter,
Speaker 5: let's win it. Because you get twice the amount of money.
Speaker 4: Right, Yeah, the game is actually the worst part, like you.
Speaker 4: Like the best part, like you says, the camaraderie with
Speaker 4: the boys, Like getting to meet these people you need
Speaker 4: to see on TV on Sundays all time but never
Speaker 4: get to know them at all.
Speaker 6: That's that's got to be the coolest part.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and a story like you you can relate to
Speaker 5: this as a tackle. The last time I went in Orlando,
Speaker 5: we were the AFC came back towards the end of
Speaker 5: the game, so we were in like two minutes and
Speaker 5: the end of the game, and you have these Pro
Speaker 5: Bowl rushers on the other side, and I think Andrew
Speaker 5: Whitworth was that right tackle, and he's like, I haven't
Speaker 5: been in the right handed stance since like junior high.
Speaker 5: So if you could chip Von Miller on your way out,
Speaker 5: like that would be great, and you're not allowed to
Speaker 5: chip in the Pro Bowl. He's like, just just run
Speaker 5: your route through him. Like I'm like, I got you,
Speaker 5: I'll take care of it.
Speaker 6: He did it, but yeah, no, like I ran that awesome,
Speaker 6: what a boy move.
Speaker 5: I'd like go through or I was like, okay, if
Speaker 5: I'm going that way, I'll start outside of them and
Speaker 5: just slow them down a little bit. And but it
Speaker 5: was you know how it is at the end of
Speaker 5: the game if it's close, guys know, like, hey, we
Speaker 5: can get twice the money if I get a sack
Speaker 5: or you know, winning touchdown. Not only do I get
Speaker 5: twice the money, I might walk out of here with
Speaker 5: a new car. Like yeah, you know, guys started playing
Speaker 5: hard at the end of the game.
Speaker 4: It's like a hounta Genesis or some shit like that,
Speaker 4: Like what are you gonna do with that? Like it
Speaker 4: doesn't make it doesn't make any sense. The good Dane
Speaker 4: for me was like all the three Probowls I've been in,
Speaker 4: the AFC's won and one like Handley, like the last
Speaker 4: few minutes of the games, like all right, well this
Speaker 4: is kind of a wash.
Speaker 5: It is what it is. We in twenty thirteen we
Speaker 5: won big. We scored like sixty something. That was a blowout.
Speaker 5: We were kind of chilling most of the fourth quarter.
Speaker 5: But then the other one in eighteen, we we blew
Speaker 5: a lead. We had a big lead. It was raining
Speaker 5: the whole time, which it seems like it's raining every
Speaker 5: year in Orlando, but we had a big lead and
Speaker 5: then they came back at the end scored, We got
Speaker 5: the ball to go down the field in two minutes
Speaker 5: and then it just turned into super competitive. Like I said,
Speaker 5: the Rushiers were all Russian. I think Vaughn got the
Speaker 5: MVP getting multiple sacks at the end of the game.
Speaker 6: Twenty eighteen.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, I've never been to the one in Hawaii,
Speaker 4: but I mean Orlando is a fun time, like when
Speaker 4: you get to shut down the Universal Studios and like
Speaker 4: to bring your family and do the Disney and you
Speaker 4: have like your kids are getting the frontal line on everything.
Speaker 6: Like you have the fast Fast Pass. Yeah, like that's
Speaker 6: that's so much fun, dude, That's gotta be a blast.
Speaker 5: The VIP tour at Disney was worth it. My girls
Speaker 5: were like one and a half at the time and
Speaker 5: loved Mickey until we got to meet Mickey in person
Speaker 5: and they were absolutely scared to death, just freaking out.
Speaker 5: And it had like a recorded voice, so like it
Speaker 5: was whoever was inside of it was talking, it would
Speaker 5: sound like Mickey and it freaked my girls out. They
Speaker 5: were not having it. But we used the VIP tour
Speaker 5: to do like you said, like the fast Fast Pass
Speaker 5: to get in the front, all the rides. It was.
Speaker 5: It was a good way to do Disney, that's for sure.
Speaker 6: No doubt.
Speaker 4: I honestly don't think I can ever do Disney a
Speaker 4: different way now, as selfish as that sounds like, I
Speaker 4: will pay that extra money now to go do whether
Speaker 4: it's Disney World, Disneyland, either one of them for you,
Speaker 4: Like when you're a tight end and you're used to catching,
Speaker 4: but like you like your second year Pro Bowl alternate,
Speaker 4: like so many catches and then now you go into
Speaker 4: a different role the next couple of years. I know
Speaker 4: you had a couple of injuries, but you're kind of
Speaker 4: putting a role like battle line play. We need you
Speaker 4: to go and block. We need to do more like
Speaker 4: max protection stuff. From an ego standpoint, How does that
Speaker 4: affect you? Is that like one of those things that's like,
Speaker 4: you know, I'm a Pro Bowl tight end. I don't
Speaker 4: need to be like I need to catch it.
Speaker 7: I'm a Pro Bowl I'm the man.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 5: No, I mean I would love to just be able
Speaker 5: to run around and catch balls. I mean it's what
Speaker 5: I've done for a long time. It's you know, always
Speaker 5: what's been easier for me, Like past blocking and run
Speaker 5: blocking hasn't been what I've done well for most of
Speaker 5: my career, so it's it's more of a grind for me.
Speaker 5: Like if you know I'm lining up against a defensive
Speaker 5: end or outside linebacker, I just have to try hard,
Speaker 5: you know, because you're gonna be way more athletic than
Speaker 5: I am, are going to be way stronger than me.
Speaker 5: Now you're gonna be way bigger than me. So it's
Speaker 5: just it's hard, you know. I, like I said, I
Speaker 5: want to run around and catch balls. I feel like, uh,
Speaker 5: you know, I bring added value to our team in
Speaker 5: the past game, you know, especially down in the red zone.
Speaker 5: Being a taller guy, being a basketball player. It's it's
Speaker 5: there's a lot of similarities in red zone football and
Speaker 5: you know, just going up and get rebound and so
Speaker 5: I feel like I do that well. And obviously if
Speaker 5: if we're getting sacked immediately or you know, we're having
Speaker 5: troubles protecting, it does no good if we have all
Speaker 5: these great design plays and I'm out running around. So like,
Speaker 5: I get it. You know, there are times where you know,
Speaker 5: I got to stand next to the tackle and you know,
Speaker 5: here comes you know, a future Hall of Fame rusher
Speaker 5: we got to do what we got to do that
Speaker 5: to win games. But I do I love run around
Speaker 5: and catching the football and making plays in the past game,
Speaker 5: just put.
Speaker 1: Them in the back of the end zone and throw
Speaker 1: it up, do the rebounding kind of push off a
Speaker 1: little bit, go up and grab it and win a
Speaker 1: playoff game, beat the Saints.
Speaker 7: Controversial call.
Speaker 5: You know, there you go.
Speaker 1: Let's talk about skin for a second. If you've been
Speaker 1: dealing with acne, redness, dark spots, wrinkles, all of it,

Speaker 1: get back to the episode.
Speaker 7: What a We talked about this when we were in Miami.
Speaker 1: We're going back and forth from a defensive perspective offensive
Speaker 1: perspective of the whole pushed off thing. I feel like, uh,
Speaker 1: the Saints got slided a little bit their own rule
Speaker 1: they created the year before us.
Speaker 5: I have to disagree with you because the rule was
Speaker 5: put in for them, so like for the NFL to
Speaker 5: have a chance to vindicate, like, hey, we put this
Speaker 5: rule in for you. It's a scoring play, so you
Speaker 5: don't even have to challenge it. We're going to review
Speaker 5: it anyways, and we're going to take the time. We're
Speaker 5: going to look at it. And they still couldn't overrule it.
Speaker 5: So that's where I know it's just football, Like, yeah,
Speaker 5: you know, was I touching him? Absolutely? Was he grabbing me? Absolutely?
Speaker 5: But that's that's football, especially down in the red zone,
Speaker 5: Like you know, guys are hand fighting all the time.
Speaker 5: And I've explained it a couple of times. The difference
Speaker 5: between like if we would have been close together and
Speaker 5: I would have pushed him away from me, that's and
Speaker 5: it's what George Kittle did in the Super Bowl. He
Speaker 5: was running right next to that guy and then extended
Speaker 5: the arm. If he would have just held him at
Speaker 5: arms distance away, that's what you're going to get away
Speaker 5: with that every time, because your arm's already extended, then
Speaker 5: you just you basically like remove your arm from him
Speaker 5: and make the catch. If you do the opposite, if
Speaker 5: you create the separation instead of just keep the separation,
Speaker 5: they're going to call it every time because that's what
Speaker 5: they're looking for, is the extension. And for instance, on
Speaker 5: that play, we're going back and forth, he was grabbing
Speaker 5: me and it was almost like, I know the ball's coming.
Speaker 5: You know, it's cover zero quarterback draw. The only outlet
Speaker 5: for us was to throw the fade on the back side,
Speaker 5: so I knew the ball was coming right away, and
Speaker 5: I was almost like, yeah, you can grab me like that.
Speaker 5: I would much rather have a smaller guy create contact
Speaker 5: try to grab me because they're way faster than I am,
Speaker 5: way more athletic. If they give me some space, they
Speaker 5: can close the ground, you know, in a split second.
Speaker 5: So once he started grabbing me, I was like, okay,
Speaker 5: I'll just let you grab me. I'll keep you at
Speaker 5: bay and then I'll make a play on the ball. So, uh,
Speaker 5: that's that's my story. I'm sticking to it, uh, you know,
Speaker 5: And it wasn't called, so therefore it was not offensive pass.
Speaker 6: I hate to do it to you. I know you're
Speaker 6: my boy, but I feel like he's right.
Speaker 5: Oh, no, I just I just I just feel like,
Speaker 5: for like, if if there was an opportunity to overrule
Speaker 5: a call a game winning touchdown in New Orleans where
Speaker 5: the rule was created, that was it.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: No, I'm just glad, I'm glad I got you fired up.
Speaker 1: I was actually I was actually excited for the old
Speaker 1: Kirk on that one because he wins a playoff game.
Speaker 1: Everybody's shaming my man all the time about the big game,
Speaker 1: so I knew that one was huge for the boys.
Speaker 5: So the dime that he dropped to get us down
Speaker 5: inside the five yard line was one of the best
Speaker 5: throws I've ever seen. I mean, just absolutely absurd. Uh,
Speaker 5: And he played huge for us all year. I'd say
Speaker 5: it every time people ask, like I literally just got
Speaker 5: done doing an interview before I hopped on here with
Speaker 5: you guys, and they're like, what does Kirk Cousins have
Speaker 5: to do to take you guys to the next level?
Speaker 2: Right?
Speaker 5: And I was like, just do what he did all
Speaker 5: year last year, and you know, maybe one of the
Speaker 5: other ten guys on offense can step up and play better.
Speaker 5: And you know, just the quarterback is not going to
Speaker 5: go win games for you. There's ten other guys on
Speaker 5: the field, so he does. He always gets a bad rap.
Speaker 5: But when you make that kind of money and you
Speaker 5: sign those deals there, they're always going to point fingers
Speaker 5: at the quarterback. They get way too much credit when
Speaker 5: we win, and they get way too much blame lose.
Speaker 7: Well said.
Speaker 4: You, uh, I know, we're we're running out of I
Speaker 4: know when when's your stuff time? Will you're one forty
Speaker 4: five hard stop?
Speaker 2: Yeah?

Speaker 1: finish this fun episode.
Speaker 4: I just want to know about your relationship with Portnoy,
Speaker 4: because when we were down in Miami and they would
Speaker 4: we officially joined up at barstool.
Speaker 6: You were literally talk to you were you're the boy
Speaker 6: you were the guy you were.
Speaker 4: Dave apparently has secret shirts that guys have that I
Speaker 4: need to figure out how to get. I want to
Speaker 4: know about your relationship with Dave and also what if
Speaker 4: you have a good relationship with him obviously you know
Speaker 4: what this call our daddy stuff, like what's your what's
Speaker 4: your bit on that?
Speaker 5: Yeah, So really like it's funny because Dave was doing
Speaker 5: they started the casting couch like San Francisco super Bowl.
Speaker 5: They had the bus and they had I think I
Speaker 5: was on with Dave and Big Cat and I'm not
Speaker 5: sure there was one other. Maybe Greg Olsen was on
Speaker 5: like right before me. And it was my first time,
Speaker 5: like ever being introduced to barstool. I didn't really read
Speaker 5: a lot of their stuff, the blogs back in the day.
Speaker 5: But all my buddies were like, dude, like they love
Speaker 5: tight ends and they have this bust RV that's parked
Speaker 5: somewhere in San Francisco. You have to find it and
Speaker 5: you've got to get on. So my high school tight
Speaker 5: end coach is a huge STOOLI and has been a
Speaker 5: study for you know, the last twenty years. However long
Speaker 5: day's been doing it. And he's like, all right, I'll
Speaker 5: reach out and literally he's the one that got in
Speaker 5: contact with him, and they got the address where the
Speaker 5: bus was parked, showed up, did it with them, and
Speaker 5: you know, we had a good time sitting there chatting.
Speaker 5: Then that summer I had my charity golf tournament here
Speaker 5: in Minneapolis, and I was like, bring the boys out, like,
Speaker 5: you guys will all be celebrities. Well, they thought they
Speaker 5: were just like a group in my tournament. And when
Speaker 5: they showed up, it was Dave, Frankie, Trenton Riggs and
Speaker 5: they all were their own celebrities, so they thought they
Speaker 5: were just playing in a group. And yeah, but like
Speaker 5: I brought him out to be celebrities in my tournament.
Speaker 5: And you know at the time, you know, and now
Speaker 5: that he's like, Frankie can't be a celebrity, Like what
Speaker 5: the hell are you talking about? Like nobody knows who
Speaker 5: this guy is. Like he's a cameraman, he's not a celebrity.
Speaker 5: So we had a good time at the golf tournament
Speaker 5: and you know, like we just it's funny. Like I said,
Speaker 5: I wasn't really a big stoolie before any of that stuff.
Speaker 5: And then I tried to get out to New York
Speaker 5: and see those guys and and hop on the different
Speaker 5: shows and podcasts and stuff. So but yeah, I've kind
Speaker 5: of followed all the colored Daddy stuff afar, but it
Speaker 5: never ceases to amaze me that Dave always wins, and
Speaker 5: like he just literally, like as I read up on it,
Speaker 5: as I watched some of his press conferences, every time
Speaker 5: he comes out with the emergency press conference, I'm just like,
Speaker 5: why are you mess with this guy? He always always
Speaker 5: seems to seem to find a way to be the
Speaker 5: winner at the end.
Speaker 4: It's such a cult following too, right, Like if Dave
Speaker 4: says this, this is fucking happening.
Speaker 1: Like all this memurs, all this video guys, people are
Speaker 1: just pushing like, oh that's get them. Yeah, all these
Speaker 1: videos just put ahead on a movie scene and the
Speaker 1: winner is going to be Dave and you're you're just
Speaker 1: getting crushed, dude.
Speaker 5: I literally I can't think of anyone else in the
Speaker 5: world that I would want to like have beef with
Speaker 5: or like go at just because, like you said, all
Speaker 5: the resources of AMMO that he has to just destroy
Speaker 5: you Like not, no, thanks, I'm good, I'm glad. I'm important.
Speaker 6: Yeah, definitely is important. I got to stay on that
Speaker 6: team as long as you can.
Speaker 5: All right, hold on for deal.
Speaker 4: You're coming on, man, you crushed it. We the best
Speaker 4: guess are when you don't have to talk to me
Speaker 4: of the talk at all? Did you were awesome?
