Speaker 1: Yes that's a man. Now. Welcome to another edition of
Speaker 1: the Around the NFL Podcast. My name is Dan Hansas
Speaker 1: and I am joined in a winery so classy, filled
Speaker 1: with heroes. Yes, Mark Sessler, Chris Wessling and Greg Rostal.
Speaker 1: What's up? Boys? There? It is? Hey everybody? Hey Dan,
Speaker 1: thanks for coming. How is everybody? Thank you? Seven women
Speaker 1: that are here too? Yeah? Way more than seven, thank you?
Speaker 1: There might be twelve. I hope you're appropriately liquored up.
Speaker 1: This is vaguely intimidating. I feel like there's a lot
Speaker 1: of human beings here, and at any point I'm much,
Speaker 1: I just get up and walk away, and you'll Marashina again.
Speaker 1: It was too much. My only goal was not to
Speaker 1: fall off. This is the type of chair that I
Speaker 1: would totally tumble right off of. And there's still like
Speaker 1: another hour plus to go. So I like when they
Speaker 1: were coming up with, like, where should we put these
Speaker 1: guys for a live show. Let's get like a really
Speaker 1: classy sexy winery for a bunch of classy sexy guys.
Speaker 1: That's checks out, checks out. That makes sense, right, That's
Speaker 1: why they never put us on video, you know. And
Speaker 1: and you guys, I'm glad you guys are here because
Speaker 1: every day we're in that cramped studio when we do
Speaker 1: the show and we talk about what West wears, and
Speaker 1: we say, look at West's bod. Look at what Lakisha
Speaker 1: the paramore puts him in. He went from a three
Speaker 1: to like a twelve and a half out of ten.
Speaker 1: Look at the look at the coating of the brown shoes,
Speaker 1: and then up to the look at how it's fitting
Speaker 1: on the arms. What a hot bod and what a
Speaker 1: hot dude? Give it up for West, A total piece ass.
Speaker 1: It's very generous. I haven't lifted a weight or moved
Speaker 1: since cancer. Okay, it's like the time we should talk
Speaker 1: about Dan's hot bot on guys obsession because it's like,
Speaker 1: I mean, we could open up. It's like it doesn't
Speaker 1: last more than a few minutes without some sort of
Speaker 1: rating of the guys. But I think he's got your
Speaker 1: your your ability to evaluate his spot on no doubt.
Speaker 1: I mean, you don't try to take it in an
Speaker 1: uncomfortable situation. But I'm just more I see what I
Speaker 1: see and then I comment on him. It's organ analyst ultimately,
Speaker 1: And let the record show that Kevin Patras like five
Speaker 1: ft nine pounds. I mean, the man's not here to
Speaker 1: defend themselves. Um. So we're really excited to be here,
Speaker 1: and thank you everybody for coming out. This is so incredible.
Speaker 1: We did a show out in London and it was fine.
Speaker 1: But you know, I mean I like America. I like
Speaker 1: being here, and here we are in Atlanta and you
Speaker 1: guys packed the joints. So thank you so much. Here.
Speaker 1: That's awesome. How many uh make some noise? If you're
Speaker 1: a Patriots fan, that's right, would be a rough night
Speaker 1: for you, all right, You guys can go now if
Speaker 1: you want what is this guy here? Let me see this?
Speaker 1: Hang on? Oh no, Brady is I go get my lunch?
Speaker 1: There could be shadowy League figures here. I can't there
Speaker 1: are alright. So we're here to do a show. This
Speaker 1: is our super Bowl fifty three preview podcast, which means
Speaker 1: we're gonna talk about a lot of things and this
Speaker 1: will go up live on NFL dot com tomorrow. So
Speaker 1: we're all part of history together. Doesn't it feel special? Um?
Speaker 1: So what are we gonna do today? Here we go
Speaker 1: some you know who's coming back? We have a special guest.
Speaker 1: Tiny Box is not here. Unfortunately. Actually I did read
Speaker 1: Colleen who we're doing our NFL dot com show. During
Speaker 1: the week we did our Tuesday podcast and then I
Speaker 1: it was a bridge too far, I said. I texted Colleen,
Speaker 1: It's like, hey, you want to do the live show.
Speaker 1: She's like yeah, it's a lot to ask. It's like,
Speaker 1: are you paying me? No? Special guest is so special
Speaker 1: that it's not even a human. Yeah, we do. It's
Speaker 1: it's a female. Her name is Bridget, so the Bridget
Speaker 1: super Bowl Box three thousand. She's gonna be here. She's
Speaker 1: a beautiful Woman Machine also one of our favorite games.
Speaker 1: What's more likely we're gonna dig into that. Uh, Mark
Speaker 1: and I have to We're gonna have to talk about
Speaker 1: the Patriots, right Mark, we are, but we're gonna do
Speaker 1: it our way. Isn't the whole show about the Patriots?
Speaker 1: There's gonna be a reckoning? Oh yeah, and it is that.
Speaker 1: It is that time. It is. It is that time
Speaker 1: of year. So go get my lunch. And Mark, I
Speaker 1: know you last year there was a very controversial go
Speaker 1: get my lunch. I don't find a controversial on any level.
Speaker 1: I'm dealing with three clowns who simply can't come aroun
Speaker 1: own to truth and justice. Uh nah, don't encourage him.
Speaker 1: We'll make our game predictions and then we want to
Speaker 1: hear from you. The audience will do a Q and
Speaker 1: A after the show. So if you guys have if
Speaker 1: you guys have any questions, now's the time to think
Speaker 1: of it. But before we get into that, it is
Speaker 1: super Bowl week, and you know during super Bowl week
Speaker 1: there are a lot of stories. I mean, that's part
Speaker 1: of the machine West. You've gotta manufacture news content. It
Speaker 1: marches on ceaselessly, much to Mark's dismay, like the US
Speaker 1: Postal Service is ever coming home. Mark has been ready
Speaker 1: for this season to end for about four weeks. I
Speaker 1: might wish I could argue you, but I I want
Speaker 1: to finish it well. But I am ready to be
Speaker 1: at some point free of all of this. I need it.
Speaker 1: That's fair, alright. So what we're gonna where we're gonna
Speaker 1: start here is a new game called doesn't Matter. It's
Speaker 1: like it's it's not the best name, but came up
Speaker 1: with it earlier today and it was fine. Alright, So
Speaker 1: here we go. I'm gonna go through some news items,
Speaker 1: uh this week, and you're gonna tell me if it
Speaker 1: matters or if it doesn't matter. And I'll start start
Speaker 1: with this Nickel, Robie Coleman on Tom Brady each has
Speaker 1: taken a toll. Chris Wesley doesn't matter. It does not.
Speaker 1: Why not? It doesn't matter because we've seen he's gotten
Speaker 1: better over the last few weeks. He's over his MCL tear,
Speaker 1: playing really well, and we saw him he was in
Speaker 1: the zone. How often is a quarterback in the zone
Speaker 1: which he was in and overtime with his ball placement.
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter how old he is, and he played
Speaker 1: his two best games of the season after having a
Speaker 1: week off, and now he just had another week off.
Speaker 1: I mean, West is not a huge fan of player
Speaker 1: X talks about player Y to begin with, so I'm
Speaker 1: not shocked at the answer. All right, so it doesn't matter,
Speaker 1: all right, but what was that that point? I know, Mark,
Speaker 1: this one's for you, Sean McVeigh, Bill Belichick. They text
Speaker 1: quote basically close quote. Every game doesn't matter. M I
Speaker 1: think we feel like this is the story that Sean
Speaker 1: McVeigh deeply regrets uh sneaking out to the press because
Speaker 1: there was that uncomfortable moment during Opening Night, if that's
Speaker 1: what it's still called. I think that that is the
Speaker 1: Opening Night, a wonderful event for all the shadow algy figures.
Speaker 1: I really enjoy going to that, an attending that, but
Speaker 1: Belichick sort of standing there awkwardly as Sean McVeigh had
Speaker 1: to answer that question with the two of the standing there.
Speaker 1: Belichick doesn't want anyone to know who he's texting or
Speaker 1: who he's communicating with, so it was just too much
Speaker 1: inside baseball. But there's also well, there's that the Belichick
Speaker 1: could be annoyed. There's also the angle that Sean McVeigh.
Speaker 1: He's young. His first game here in the Super Bowl,
Speaker 1: he learned about with lesson never divulge anything even a
Speaker 1: little bit interesting early in the week, because then you
Speaker 1: got to get asked about it four thousand times before Sunday.
Speaker 1: I think that's what happened here. But to answer your question,
Speaker 1: I think you could argue that nothing matters. But I
Speaker 1: think it matters a little bit because Shellan McVeigh is
Speaker 1: gonna be around for a long time, and I think
Speaker 1: he learned a lesson right there, all right on that
Speaker 1: note makes some human bill, but already that matters. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's here. It doesn't matter Sean McVeigh. And you guys
Speaker 1: might know this. This is out there on the street
Speaker 1: streets talking. He's thirty three years old. Do you guys
Speaker 1: know that it's crazy. I'm gonna say it does not matter.
Speaker 1: Why not, because he's better than almost any coach in
Speaker 1: the league as it is. Age ain't nothing. I mean,
Speaker 1: the old guys over there, they've they've proven it. Side
Speaker 1: of the room. I don't know why. I'm just like
Speaker 1: ultra agism from Greg every show, every episode. Greg. I
Speaker 1: like that, But that did feel unnecessary. Most things, most
Speaker 1: things I say they are, You're like four years younger
Speaker 1: than us. Please, Greg. By the way, we are in Atlanta.
Speaker 1: Uh and this is a perfect place because a lot
Speaker 1: of a lot of Falcons fans. I'm impressed. We love
Speaker 1: the dirty birds. How there we go. Falcon fans have
Speaker 1: been through a lot. I have a lot of respect
Speaker 1: for him, all right, West home teams thirty one all
Speaker 1: time in the Super Bowl. Doesn't matter. It doesn't matter.
Speaker 1: There's no such thing as a home team in the
Speaker 1: Super Bowl. It's a neutral field. That's untrue. Every year
Speaker 1: there's a home team. No, not really not. I'm totally
Speaker 1: with you. What about that doesn't matter? Sessler that the
Speaker 1: Rams are wearing the throwback jerseys and the Patriots are
Speaker 1: wearing the white jerseys. What do they know? I can't
Speaker 1: even bring myself participate nature, No, not at all. All right,
Speaker 1: there we go, Mark double question Tom Brady quote zero
Speaker 1: chance of retiring after the Super Bowl. Of course it
Speaker 1: matters because I actually thought about a month ago that,
Speaker 1: you know, if the game went the way he wanted
Speaker 1: it to, he might walk out on top. Just you
Speaker 1: could argue there's nothing more for him to accomplish. But
Speaker 1: it completely matters. Because it backs up everything that he's
Speaker 1: been saying about his own career for years. He's not
Speaker 1: backing off it, I feel, and he's still in your
Speaker 1: Jets division, so it's gonna matter to you, Patriots, and
Speaker 1: I would like him to retire if Super Bowl this
Speaker 1: year against the Rams close it down and just like
Speaker 1: drop the mic, I would be totally fine the Patriots fan.
Speaker 1: Does anybody else feel that way? You'd like to see
Speaker 1: him go out with a win, can't wait for the
Speaker 1: don't worry about any gradual decline, would be beautiful, Bay
Speaker 1: and Mallett back. You know I love my one more year? Okay,
Speaker 1: all right, thank you sir? How about this one? And
Speaker 1: you know I love my Kickers. Greg's ourrline. He's kept
Speaker 1: his foot injury secret from the Rams. Should if you're
Speaker 1: rooting for the Rams, and you know there's a lot
Speaker 1: of people are doing that in this country right now
Speaker 1: and across the world. That's a little nervous about that
Speaker 1: one West because that guy's a This matters because not
Speaker 1: only does he have one of the biggest legs in
Speaker 1: the league for field goals, but can he put it
Speaker 1: out of the end zone and prevent Cordarrel Patterson from
Speaker 1: returning kickoffs probably can alright here. We got Greg, I
Speaker 1: want to hear your thoughts and also marks on this one.
Speaker 1: Sean Payton binged Netflix and ice cream after the Rams
Speaker 1: defeated the Saints in that controversial NFC title game. Now,
Speaker 1: I think that does matter. It made him human. He's
Speaker 1: not a guy that you always kind of think of
Speaker 1: and you want to wrap your arms around him really
Speaker 1: as a likable guy, and that did it. We talked
Speaker 1: to Cameron Jordan's. We talked to Cameron Jordan today and
Speaker 1: if Falcons fans like Saints going through pain, I mean
Speaker 1: they're doing it, Cameron Jordan's. Cameron Jordan's said he watched
Speaker 1: the game four straight times between Monday and Tuesday and
Speaker 1: just thought of all the things that he could have
Speaker 1: done differently, and just think how much worse this would
Speaker 1: week would be for all you have Falcons fans. If
Speaker 1: New Orleans had taken over this town, which is what
Speaker 1: they would have done, it matters to me if I
Speaker 1: need more detail the flavorings of the ice cream, what
Speaker 1: sort of dish or condiments went with the ice cream?
Speaker 1: And what is he binging on Netflix? Netflix has a
Speaker 1: wide umbrella program. I mean, I want to know what
Speaker 1: he take West's advice and watch you. I mean that's
Speaker 1: what we all watched the last few weeks. But did
Speaker 1: you know check out the Ted Bundy documentary. I watched
Speaker 1: that myself. But that would be more about concerned if
Speaker 1: NFL head coaches are binging that two days after a
Speaker 1: long last one West Aaron Donald. L A is a
Speaker 1: football town. Now, it doesn't matter because it's not true. Well,
Speaker 1: it's not a football town in in anything unless it's
Speaker 1: college football. Do we have any Rams fans other than
Speaker 1: Lakisha here? Alright? Alright, I recognize that. Alright, So well
Speaker 1: that's telling. And it's interesting that you know, the Patriots,
Speaker 1: of course, have been to this game nine times in
Speaker 1: eighteen years. I think that everyone in New England has
Speaker 1: been to at least three Super Bowls at this point.
Speaker 1: So if the Rams cannot outdraw Patriots fans on Sunday,
Speaker 1: and I have my suspicions they won't be able to,
Speaker 1: it's not going to be a great. Look. I would
Speaker 1: say this l A is not like, hey, be good
Speaker 1: at something for like ten days and we bought it.
Speaker 1: You gotta you gotta win the town over there on
Speaker 1: their way. You couldn't have asked for a better start
Speaker 1: for the rams. Well that's fair. That was another pr
Speaker 1: message for the people. Nice second, nice when you got
Speaker 1: things going. What what are you guys drinking tonight? By
Speaker 1: the way, what we are wine? Anybody drinking Tito's? There's
Speaker 1: like one rush. That's good. Our first ever green room
Speaker 1: in the back, and I have to say booze whenever
Speaker 1: you can. Mr f bought us around. Shout out for
Speaker 1: Mr the greatest sponsor in the business. All right, here
Speaker 1: we go. It's time to make some Super Bowl fifty
Speaker 1: three predictions. Uh, with the help of the bridget bought
Speaker 1: three thousand. So we're gonna go around the horn here.
Speaker 1: Let's start though with Chris Wesling give us a prediction,
Speaker 1: and then we have a state of the art computer
Speaker 1: robit that will deem whether or not it is something
Speaker 1: that should be taken seriously. Well, we all recognize that
Speaker 1: Tony Romo is a natural and he's already great at
Speaker 1: his job, but he's yet to have his like Al
Speaker 1: Michael's do you Believe in Miracles? Broadcast booth moment. My
Speaker 1: prediction is that Tony Romo has his signature broadcast moment
Speaker 1: calling Tom Brady Tom versus time two minute drill in
Speaker 1: the biggest stage in American sports. Oh, I love it.
Speaker 1: It's kind of the whole Romo thing. It's fascinating, and
Speaker 1: we talked We've talked about it West because I I
Speaker 1: know all of us are kind of fascinated by what
Speaker 1: he's been able to do. How big a story it was.
Speaker 1: You wonder if like a football player has a prime
Speaker 1: an analyst this, you know, coming out of the game
Speaker 1: a few years, if this is his prime. So we
Speaker 1: need to kind of enjoy it while last before he
Speaker 1: turns into Terry Bradshaw and he's sitting at a Dais
Speaker 1: for nine straight minutes without saying anything. You're getting paid
Speaker 1: for this. I do wonder Jim Nancy's ever like, what
Speaker 1: about me? Jim's got banged out. Now you know that
Speaker 1: Jim's got some issues. Um, all right, let's see. Well
Speaker 1: I liked it. I think we all like, what does
Speaker 1: this robotic minstress think about? Let's see what Bridget has
Speaker 1: to say. Another faulty delivery for the quote unquote mail man.
Speaker 1: A faulty delivery for the mail man that was such
Speaker 1: a great ta quote unquote mailman. He literally delivered mail
Speaker 1: a man. If there was a robot Hell, I would
Speaker 1: send Bridget there, be careful. You're starting to come around
Speaker 1: and where I'm I don't know why she's so unpopular.
Speaker 1: We do this game and she gets it's a big
Speaker 1: spot for Bridget to be a lot of pressure on.
Speaker 1: All right, Greg, we took her out for a ride.
Speaker 1: It's your turn now. My prediction is that Dante Fowler
Speaker 1: in Indomican Sue are gonna hit Tom Brady twice as
Speaker 1: much as he's been hit in the playoffs so far.
Speaker 1: That Dante Fowler when you look that, they're gonna hurry
Speaker 1: him throughout the game. If you look at what has
Speaker 1: been different with this Rams team in the playoffs, it's
Speaker 1: Dante Fowler in Indominican sue, and especially in the NFC
Speaker 1: Championship game, it was Fowler. You're putting two guys on
Speaker 1: Aaron Donald and Fowler. It wasn't just the game winning
Speaker 1: play that he had, like play after play, his quickness
Speaker 1: was beating the tackles of the Saints, who are better
Speaker 1: than the tackles of the Patriots. And by the way,
Speaker 1: he had his other best game of the year as
Speaker 1: a member of the Jaguars against the Patriots back in
Speaker 1: Week two. They're lining in Dominican Sue up at defensive
Speaker 1: end at defensive tackle. He got his sack when he's
Speaker 1: playing one technique over a nose tackle. I just don't
Speaker 1: think they've the offensive line of the Patriots has played
Speaker 1: a mean like this. And it's gonna be harder for Brady.
Speaker 1: Doesn't mean they're not gonna win. I think I'm just
Speaker 1: saying it's gonna be hard Greg, unless, like Dante Scarnecki,
Speaker 1: is on pilocybin twelve minutes before kickoff. I think that.
Speaker 1: I think Brady is gonna be fun. Are you ready
Speaker 1: for a humble Bragg? Yeah, let's hear it. Before I
Speaker 1: left for the Super Bowl l Kisition, I ran into
Speaker 1: Kara Henderson Snead at a bar and wife drop and
Speaker 1: we spent like ten minutes talking about Dante Fowler as
Speaker 1: the X factor in this game. Beast. I mean that
Speaker 1: was a humble Bragg. I have to say came through.
Speaker 1: I mean it did? It did connect? You know, Fowler's
Speaker 1: a guy, he's interesting, and the fact that he um
Speaker 1: was a nice pickup, but it wasn't making a ton
Speaker 1: of noise and then he has the hit, the hit
Speaker 1: on breeze that leads to the intercession and overtime. If
Speaker 1: he does what you think he could do. How many
Speaker 1: more millions is this guy gonna make on the open
Speaker 1: market if he gets there? That this is this is
Speaker 1: how you make the monk. I mean he I thought
Speaker 1: he was the most valuable player on the team and
Speaker 1: Sue being able to move all around. I'm throwing him
Speaker 1: into this mix too, Like he smells the Hall of
Speaker 1: Fame right now. It almost feels like he was chilling
Speaker 1: during the regular season and now it's just like suit time.
Speaker 1: All right. Well that was I mean, Greg is so great.
Speaker 1: He along with West built Road a world brick by bricks.
Speaker 1: You told us in the green room. I wasn't aware
Speaker 1: you won some type of fantasy award, like you called
Speaker 1: it the Best Picture of Fantasy Writing award, which was
Speaker 1: what fantasy writer of the year it was, Yeah, the
Speaker 1: Fantasy sports Writer of the Year. A nice little plastic
Speaker 1: trophy that's somewhere. So he's a smart guy and that
Speaker 1: was a great take. Obviously, Bridget will I mean, the
Speaker 1: humble brags just keep coming. Let's see what Bridget has
Speaker 1: to say, crack is Mark, Greg rehab? Oh you know what,
Speaker 1: go to rehab. I mean, if anyone was going to
Speaker 1: rehab out of this for it wouldn't be me. Sure,
Speaker 1: I don't even know who. I mean, that's what's beautiful.
Speaker 1: That's only slightly judged. I don't know about that. I
Speaker 1: also thought like the podcast just took a dark turn
Speaker 1: with that one comment. That will if they did like
Speaker 1: some type like a behind the music or like a
Speaker 1: football life, that would be when like he says it,
Speaker 1: and then it goes to black and white and then
Speaker 1: they show our reactions and then nothing is ever the same. Please,
Speaker 1: I mean, be mad at the human programming this computer.
Speaker 1: That's silly, all right, Mark, Now just for people, you
Speaker 1: guys are all obviously listeners of the show. Last time
Speaker 1: we did this, Mark, I'm very upset with the way
Speaker 1: the robot man. You know what, what came out of
Speaker 1: the robot when she did her computation. So just bring
Speaker 1: the heat this time, so we don't want that again.
Speaker 1: I don't want that either. I'm gonna bring the heat
Speaker 1: right now. At some stage in this game, a player
Speaker 1: will sustain a big enough rip or tear in his
Speaker 1: jersey to require serious attention by a team tailor and
Speaker 1: or equipment staff. I'm talking to big Gass rip analyze
Speaker 1: that Rosenthal team Taylor. Wow, I don't know if there
Speaker 1: are team tailors that you have. Signus says, I have
Speaker 1: a sessler, So you have a sessler about that one.
Speaker 1: I love this guy two thousand um All right, well,
Speaker 1: I like that. I always like when the jersey gets ripped.
Speaker 1: It is it's kind, it's masculine, and it shows that
Speaker 1: the game physical and brutal and body and the parts
Speaker 1: in the Campbell putting his head and dies, Ah Robertson.
Speaker 1: Not that big of a rip, but a big noticeable rip.
Speaker 1: I wonder what the robot will say about this. The
Speaker 1: last time we place, you called it the whole segment
Speaker 1: of manufactured joke, because I recall, all right, let's see,
Speaker 1: let's see what happens this time, because there's there's really
Speaker 1: no way you can take that any other way. This
Speaker 1: let's see what the robust Ridge mark. This is a
Speaker 1: manufactured joke. Ha ha. I do like British accents, but
Speaker 1: I don't like that one. She's become sentient. She has
Speaker 1: a sense of humor now and she's mocking you. Well, listen,
Speaker 1: I mean, if you want to get into how this
Speaker 1: whole segment is cooked up, we can just go on
Speaker 1: with it. All right, here's my prediction. All right, um,
Speaker 1: Rob Gronkowski, Julian Edelman. Edelman for the first five weeks
Speaker 1: of every calendar year turns into Jerry Rice. So to
Speaker 1: think that he is now going to get shut down
Speaker 1: in the Super Bowl, your boy, he's gonna have a
Speaker 1: big game. And then what does that mean? Seven for
Speaker 1: a hundred, maybe a touch aim higher, could be higher Gronk. Meanwhile,
Speaker 1: the ropea dope of taking him out of the offense
Speaker 1: and all that. I think he shows up big in
Speaker 1: the a f C title game, and you know the
Speaker 1: Rams and Wade Phillips are gonna say, oh well, it's
Speaker 1: you know, people aren't noticing that the Patriots have a
Speaker 1: sneaky like check down boring his hell offense or completes
Speaker 1: like sevent his passes the running backs out of that field.
Speaker 1: We're gonna take that away. So what's gonna happen Gronk,
Speaker 1: who's had two weeks to rest up, He's going to
Speaker 1: be revitalized. He'll have a big game too. So my
Speaker 1: prediction is Gronk and Edelman go over thirty yards and
Speaker 1: score two touchdowns combined. Monster Day, and I'm very nervous
Speaker 1: about it. I want to hear what Bridget thinks about this,
Speaker 1: but you guys are getting killed, so I don't. I
Speaker 1: don't imagine I'll do well. But she's she's a robot.
Speaker 1: Let's see what she has to say. I'm nervous about this.
Speaker 1: Keeping the work out for me done. You have done
Speaker 1: it again. You are amazing. Oh well, I got it.
Speaker 1: I win the segment. Mark. I'm gonna find this robot
Speaker 1: in the off season. Take her apart, bit by bit. Alright.
Speaker 1: I always feel uncomfortable when Dan says too many nice
Speaker 1: things about the Patriots. What ulterior motives are going on? Well?
Speaker 1: You know mean well, my friend, let's take a second
Speaker 1: here to hear from a sponsor. Clean up your remote
Speaker 1: control clutter and time for the Super Bowl. With Control

Speaker 1: that does it all. Let's get back to the show,
Speaker 1: all right, It's now time for one of our favorite games.
Speaker 1: What's more Likely? What More? Yeah, that's a good one.
Speaker 1: It's one of the hits. See this guy's talking a lot,
Speaker 1: and you would think sometimes he's talking a little bit
Speaker 1: too much. Yes, we're gonna call this is the game
Speaker 1: we're gonna play. You just heard it, so that that
Speaker 1: was the warm up. The game we are playing next
Speaker 1: is called Beautiful. All right, get us going, Mark, you're
Speaker 1: up first. Actually, no, let's start with West. You gotta
Speaker 1: say it's Mark for the clean up hit or on
Speaker 1: a on a category like this, what do you gotta
Speaker 1: what's more likely? Two players? Everybody has been doubting for
Speaker 1: the past month, not at their physical peaks. Rob Gronkowski
Speaker 1: leads all players in receiving yards or Todd Gurley leads
Speaker 1: all players and yards from scrimmage. Now the crowd, well,
Speaker 1: I was gonna say what's more likely? But you guys
Speaker 1: think it's curly. Let's work this out. Let's work shop
Speaker 1: this everybody. A lot of people went broken out and grounk.
Speaker 1: After he does a set up, then you dropped what's
Speaker 1: more likely? And then if you want to decide what
Speaker 1: it is immediately after that, then you say it, all right,
Speaker 1: here we go, you know, right, there we go. So
Speaker 1: you said Rock has more receiving yards than any player,
Speaker 1: or Todd Gurley has more yards from scrimmage than any player.
Speaker 1: There we go, Girly, well done, rock see Ron, I'm
Speaker 1: nervous about but like I just said, I feel like
Speaker 1: they're gonna employ him and he's gonna have a big game.
Speaker 1: But my p scale is about fourteen for any Patriots
Speaker 1: Super Bowl game out of ten. But I also think
Speaker 1: it's a really good one because I also think Gurly
Speaker 1: he's gonna bounce back. He's not gonna touch about five times.
Speaker 1: I think McVeigh made it so clear, and he, you know,
Speaker 1: he blames was that an answer? Which was the answer there?
Speaker 1: Oh uh, Rocky Bummer, I'm going Girly. I think McVeigh
Speaker 1: all week. You know, he blames himself for everything that
Speaker 1: goes wrong with the Rams, which he obviously should not be.
Speaker 1: But the usage of Girle in the in the NFC
Speaker 1: title game and the guy who dropped two passes and no,
Speaker 1: no doubt, but that also was like a reverse Unicorn
Speaker 1: game for Girly. He's not going to have that happen again.
Speaker 1: And I think I think there's a big motivating factor
Speaker 1: here is to have Girly right away. By the end
Speaker 1: of the first quarter, we're gonna find out that he
Speaker 1: is there with a lot going on, a lot of yardage.
Speaker 1: You never want to go reverse Unicorn. You don't want
Speaker 1: to be that a maneuver. I had just made it up.
Speaker 1: I don't know. My boy, my boy Portzingis just got
Speaker 1: traded from the Knicks. No Unicorn talks today. It's too soon.
Speaker 1: It's too soon. I think it's got to be girly.
Speaker 1: I when I look at the Rams, they've played zone
Speaker 1: defense throughout most of the playoffs in the second half
Speaker 1: of the season. But when that's playing into the Patriots hand,
Speaker 1: you would think they'd play a little more man and like,
Speaker 1: who does it keep to leave cover? That's their most
Speaker 1: physical cover guy. It's Gronk, And to me, that's a
Speaker 1: mismatch in favor of to leave. As much as I
Speaker 1: love Gronk coach, I'm just I think gron can get off.
Speaker 1: He won someone on one matchups against the cornerbacks in
Speaker 1: the a f C Championship. He'll get his numbers. Are
Speaker 1: you worried that he can't jump anymore? Yes, that's an issue,
Speaker 1: although I did like that how much. Yes, Like his
Speaker 1: feet do not leave the ground, so he gets a
Speaker 1: nice you know, six for seventy eight. But Todd Gurley
Speaker 1: has a better chance to do better. You throw it
Speaker 1: out there, what special teamer is more likely? Up? That's
Speaker 1: like I do this every time here right now, mulligan.
Speaker 1: What's more like Cordurel Patterson makes a game changing play,
Speaker 1: doesn't have to be on special teams. Could be as
Speaker 1: a running back, could be as a receiver, could be
Speaker 1: as a returner. Or Johnny Hecker makes a game changing
Speaker 1: play either with his foot or his arm or his legs.
Speaker 1: Did you just ask if he's going to have a
Speaker 1: game changing punt? I said his legs or his art.
Speaker 1: He could game changing punts. Absolutely, it's like one of
Speaker 1: the great punters of all time. Well, you know, as
Speaker 1: as you know very well, the second Giants Patriots Super
Speaker 1: Bowl wasn't Matt Dodge the Giants punch punch was as
Speaker 1: big a reason for the Giants winning that game. Is
Speaker 1: pretty much. Well, we were calling him that first, We
Speaker 1: were calling him the n D P at the end
Speaker 1: of the second at the first Bill Belichick is somewhere
Speaker 1: right now like mumbling how much he loves Johnny Hecking,
Speaker 1: what a weapon? Here where he's texting Sean McVeigh about it, Um, Mark,
Speaker 1: you're up? We answer, go ahead, answer it's time hackers
Speaker 1: the goat he is giants too. I mean I think
Speaker 1: Hecker with his arm may make a game changing play
Speaker 1: that that's part of their offense. All right, I'm with you,
Speaker 1: all right, number one. Hello to my wife's Simone. Sorry. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I largely apologize for who I am. Where are you are?
Speaker 1: There's a little fun fact. Simone and I born on
Speaker 1: the same day and year, and there's really there's a
Speaker 1: bond that I mean, Simone, think about it. Mark, sometimes
Speaker 1: you were almost like twins in a way. Yeah, it's
Speaker 1: it's um, it's a developing situation. It's concerning. I monitor
Speaker 1: it heavily. I mean more best friends. But yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: it's something I'm monitored. If you want, well, she's my
Speaker 1: best friend, Dan, damn it out that hurt. You're my
Speaker 1: second best friend. I hate it. Here, okay, here we go?
Speaker 1: Do I start by saying, what's more likely? I'm like,
Speaker 1: move from Colleen Fox colle segments. All right, go ahead.
Speaker 1: In an attempt at deep psychological warfare, the New England
Speaker 1: Patriots try to run the Philly Special or the l
Speaker 1: A Rams try to run the Philly Special, tom Brady tripped. Ever,
Speaker 1: every time they've tried this place, do not throw the
Speaker 1: ball to tom Brady. He's like a college freshman after
Speaker 1: like the fourth beer. Like if you put him in
Speaker 1: the open field, he is going down. That's not what
Speaker 1: I hear about tom Brady's beer drinking ability. The last
Speaker 1: time they ran a play very similar to the Philly Special,
Speaker 1: tom Brady tripped and tore his m c L and
Speaker 1: basically ruined the next five weeks of the Patriots season.
Speaker 1: How do you even survive? Disappointment? And Malcolm Butler, what
Speaker 1: a hard life do you have? Is a Patriots fan?
Speaker 1: Five weeks of doubt? My god, the dark ages unbelievable.
Speaker 1: All right, here's mine? Oh do we have anybody? Does
Speaker 1: anyone want to answer the question? That was? All right?
Speaker 1: Here we go. What's more likely the Patriots appear in
Speaker 1: two more Super were Bowls before Tom Brady's career is over,
Speaker 1: or the Jets or Brown's win ah Super Bowl before
Speaker 1: Dan and Mark's lives are over? Say that again? What
Speaker 1: was the Patriots? Patriots appearing two more at least two
Speaker 1: more Super Bowls before Brady's done, or the Jets or
Speaker 1: Brown's win one Super Bowl before Mark or myself are
Speaker 1: dead and in the ground worm feed, hopefully fifty years
Speaker 1: from now. I mean, the X factor is there's no
Speaker 1: way to know when we're going to die. I know, yeah,
Speaker 1: I know, sneak assuming normal life expectant. It's one of
Speaker 1: the real issues human existence. It is. It's a lingering mystery.
Speaker 1: I mean, wait, is this the Human Existence podcast? Ken?
Speaker 1: All right, welcome to the Human Existence podcasting. I'll let
Speaker 1: you speak about the Jets stand are you kidding me?
Speaker 1: The Browns are going to the Super Bowl with Baker
Speaker 1: Mayfield good book, and they're what and they're not going
Speaker 1: there to lose. They're gonna win, and then they're gonna
Speaker 1: win another, and then they're gonna win another and then
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be I don't even need it after that.
Speaker 1: I mean, honestly, it's sent me out to see, well,
Speaker 1: that is what Baker Mayfield has done for And I'll
Speaker 1: speak about Mark specifically, because you are the only Browns
Speaker 1: fan or the friend of mine that I know associated
Speaker 1: with the Browns and most it's hard to talk that
Speaker 1: he changed the entire outlook for the fans like it
Speaker 1: gave you swagger like when he said that we're dangerous
Speaker 1: or I'm dangerous, whatever he said, it was adorable. Marcus
Speaker 1: Mark came into the office the next day. It's just
Speaker 1: like Mark was far cocky or about the Browns, and
Speaker 1: I was about the Patriots. In December, they worked out
Speaker 1: they won seven games? What victory? Uh, I would love. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm kind of counting on Baker Mayfield like four and
Speaker 1: thank you for asking the usual. I what do you
Speaker 1: what are you insinuating we're on the same team here?
Speaker 1: Get this man out security facility. I don't know how
Speaker 1: he got in here. It's like the answer is Dan
Speaker 1: and Mark, but unfortunately it's Baker Mayfield and the brown
Speaker 1: That's fine, That's what I'm saying. I don't care who
Speaker 1: it is. Oh No, I just want the Browns or
Speaker 1: the Jets, somebody it's got. I've I've said this for
Speaker 1: a while and you guys always roll your eyes that
Speaker 1: they're going to win. Both of them will win a
Speaker 1: Super Bowl. In your lifetime. I think you're gonna live happy,
Speaker 1: productive lives. You have like a Yoda Simone, are going
Speaker 1: to have grandchildren and over a long enough timeline, it

Speaker 1: there on your little stool? All right, Um, this is
Speaker 1: gonna be a surprise, uh for you guys, the three
Speaker 1: of you, Mark and I, we want to have a discussion. Um. Listen,
Speaker 1: a lot of America in the world has Patriots exhaustion,
Speaker 1: and so do we. And what we've decided here is
Speaker 1: we're not going to fight it anymore. It is time
Speaker 1: to give up any hope that this stops. We understand
Speaker 1: now the Patriots will be winning or appearing at Super
Speaker 1: Bowls what three to ten years ahead from at the
Speaker 1: low end of the spectrum. So you got us. We
Speaker 1: give up. So Erica, Greg, Wesa, we want to offer
Speaker 1: our What what am I doing on the Patriots side? Oh?
Speaker 1: You I'm football agnostic. Hold on one second, what are
Speaker 1: you grabbing? He's got props. West has been carrying that
Speaker 1: water up and down the hill, up and down the
Speaker 1: hill for years, So I don't tell me you're not
Speaker 1: in this conversation. So West, Greg, Eric, we surrender. We surrender.
Speaker 1: That's it what we're gonna do. Though. We want to
Speaker 1: offer up the terms of surrender. This is what happens
Speaker 1: in warfare. It's just like Yalta. What is that? This
Speaker 1: is like Yalta. It's kind of like Yelta I remember. Definitely. Alright,
Speaker 1: so we're gonna take turns offering up some terms of surrender,
Speaker 1: and then you guys can decide whether you accept them. Now,
Speaker 1: one thing to understand. If you do not accept our
Speaker 1: terms of surrender, Mark and I will quit the podcast
Speaker 1: and uh move to the deep woods of her mind
Speaker 1: and buy a log cabin together and live together. I
Speaker 1: didn't script that. We'll talk about it later. That sounds hot.
Speaker 1: That would make my life so much easier. All right,
Speaker 1: here we go, you guys, here's the first term patriots. There.
Speaker 1: You're not allowed to have any more quote unquote underdog
Speaker 1: narratives that you know are used to inflame. I mean,
Speaker 1: come on, I used to inflame the fan base, move merchandise,
Speaker 1: I see you, Edelman, whoa, and talk yourselves into a
Speaker 1: reality that simply does not exist. You are the house
Speaker 1: in Blackjack, You are the evil Empire. Just own it.
Speaker 1: What do you think I mean? I remember a lot
Speaker 1: of people picking against this podcast all year. Go ahead,
Speaker 1: Oh wait here on that side, I might have to
Speaker 1: leave Patriots fandom. If you're trying to act like they're
Speaker 1: actually underdogs, you're not getting out of this West. You're
Speaker 1: in too deep now, West Martin term number two. For
Speaker 1: as long as the Patriots kick. But Ricky Hollywood must

Speaker 1: No more inside sources telling us about epic statements. Uh,
Speaker 1: Tom makes behind closed doors. This is something that is
Speaker 1: way on my radar. Yeah, we hear that. It was reported.
Speaker 1: I'm the baddest mother efra on the planet. We know,
Speaker 1: you know, I know Tom Brady over twenty years. He
Speaker 1: didn't say that that was completely made up. Brandon Spikes,
Speaker 1: he says to Brandon Spikes and other report that came
Speaker 1: out a couple of weeks ago. You think I play
Speaker 1: this to go to bowls, and that is like all
Speaker 1: it is after twenty years, he's not saying these things. Babe,
Speaker 1: Ruth didn call his shot. It's all legend making no
Speaker 1: more of that, no more Brady legendary. Let's let the
Speaker 1: play on the field tell the story. Is that okay?
Speaker 1: I mean you're telling a story with like the rent
Speaker 1: that he's paying inside your head, that you're thinking about
Speaker 1: this all day. Fair enough, well for accurate sake, accuracy sake.
Speaker 1: Michael Jordan is a baddist on the plan alright, Brady's
Speaker 1: number two at the very least. This is how you
Speaker 1: win the crowd or Dominique Wilkins, right, guys, yeah, hey,
Speaker 1: he made it to the Eastern Conference finals once. All right, Marc,
Speaker 1: all right, until the Pats totally bite, Erica West and

Speaker 1: on air. Mr Cool takes the snap. Mr Cool is
Speaker 1: not a thing, Mr Cool, It's not a thing. Jim,
Speaker 1: I agree emphatically to that term. Close it out, bar
Speaker 1: all right. The eighth and final term that you will
Speaker 1: agree to until the Patriots dynasty dies. West must, starting
Speaker 1: this Monday, cease writing any and all football content. Instead,
Speaker 1: he must launch an obsessive WordPress blog focused exclusively on
Speaker 1: Nancy Drew daily deep dives on every single Nancy Drew novel. Impassioned.
Speaker 1: West created fan fiction centered around Nancy Drew's adult struggles
Speaker 1: with cocaine ecstasy. Adderall Star caps, mushrooms, molly still and
Speaker 1: pure strains of Colorado grown hash. Along with the written content,
Speaker 1: West will host a weekly three hour long podcast called
Speaker 1: Nancy's World. We're starting with super fudge. You're in all right?
Speaker 1: Now that we've laid out the terms, Greg, I'll let
Speaker 1: you speak for the group. Do you accept our terms
Speaker 1: of surrender? Hell? No, I mean I remember, I remember
Speaker 1: Mark Sessler having a fist bump with a gleam in
Speaker 1: his eye as Tom Rady finished off a drive against
Speaker 1: the Seahawks about four years ago. I don't remember two
Speaker 1: years ago. Because he enjoys football in the moment. He'll
Speaker 1: get you back on Sunday. So that's a. That's a
Speaker 1: that's I mean, that's great. Alright, this segments over yet,
Speaker 1: am I see? Greg doesn't speak for me except alternate
Speaker 1: quest Do you need your bucket? Carry that water? I'm
Speaker 1: done carrying their water? All right, It's time to play
Speaker 1: Go Get My Lunch. Right. Oh. It's one of our
Speaker 1: famous games where we make predictions, and what we want
Speaker 1: to do is predictions about the game that lead to
Speaker 1: our Go get My Lunch Dot org by Nick Portier
Speaker 1: does an awesome job tracking the standings of where we
Speaker 1: are with our predictions now one each for Super Bowl three.
Speaker 1: Let's get it going, Greg, so many options here, Let's
Speaker 1: go with the simplest one possible. That a guy that
Speaker 1: that Mark Brady apparently, I mean Mark said Sol apparently
Speaker 1: doesn't shout out to Mark Brady by the way he's
Speaker 1: out there, confused him with a shadowy league figure, doesn't
Speaker 1: have a parent, appear to enjoy watching anymore. Tom Brady
Speaker 1: ouch wins the Super Bowl m V p mm hmm,
Speaker 1: super Bowl m VP. How many would that be for Tom?
Speaker 1: That would be five. I believe that is an onion hanger.
Speaker 1: Gotta win the game, and he's got to perform. You Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean, he plays so out of his mind. I'd
Speaker 1: like this matchup for the Patriots passing game. I think
Speaker 1: ultimately they're not going to be able to run the
Speaker 1: ball as much, and even though they do get after
Speaker 1: Brady in this game, that he steps it up. All right, Okay,
Speaker 1: we'll see how plays out. I hope you're wrong, but
Speaker 1: he said, if we're taking it, yeah, that's true. I
Speaker 1: forgot about that. Well. I'm gonna approach this from a
Speaker 1: Greg Rosenthoe angle. Mathematically, you've got the field, so active
Speaker 1: players on each side, one out of ninety. But then
Speaker 1: you have to carry the three in factory and then
Speaker 1: he's a quarterback, and that of all time, I'm still
Speaker 1: taking the field. It's the percentage play. The field is
Speaker 1: the smart play. They say, what about you, Mark, I
Speaker 1: know that you think that I cannot stand Tom Brady.
Speaker 1: It's quite the opposite. It's just that I root for
Speaker 1: a different team. But I mean, well not really, but yeah,
Speaker 1: I knew that was coming. Rig He's got the wine too.
Speaker 1: I think if they win and he has even as
Speaker 1: I get a good work, a relatively successful game, he
Speaker 1: gets the m v P. I just think there's two
Speaker 1: This is all narrative, right, I mean he's got You
Speaker 1: don't get not give a forty something year old quarterback
Speaker 1: the m v P. Gave it to the gratest of
Speaker 1: all time. No, don't. And we know Jim Nance. We
Speaker 1: just talked about it. He called what he called him
Speaker 1: hot boy? Oh no, Mr Cool. Yeah, it's it's Jim.
Speaker 1: It's Jim Nance who I think hands the trophy over.
Speaker 1: He's involved with the hopefully it's not witting exactly. Poor
Speaker 1: Jason Witten, that poor guy. After the year he had.
Speaker 1: I mean, give the guy a break. Well, that's a
Speaker 1: fair point too. Yeah, pick it up from the base.
Speaker 1: You always know you'll pick it up from the base, Um,
Speaker 1: I will. I will not take you up on that
Speaker 1: because I think the Patriots have a good chance to
Speaker 1: win and Tom Brady narrative for he won Jim nance,
Speaker 1: Mr Cool, I can't take you on it. All right,
Speaker 1: I'll do it. Sean McVeigh, who, by the way, did
Speaker 1: you know he's thirty three mm hmm, true story, he's
Speaker 1: half the age of Bill Belichick. These are all nugs
Speaker 1: that I'm dropping for the first time. He did he
Speaker 1: played against Adelman in college. Alright, anyway, McVeigh and Belichick,
Speaker 1: we'll have a midfield encounter at the end of the
Speaker 1: game that will be a big story after the game
Speaker 1: and into the next week. And I'll tell you why.
Speaker 1: It's not just think I'm Rooney forks would be fun.
Speaker 1: I think there's something to Belichick, who is hyper competitive,
Speaker 1: he loves being known as the goat coach, and all
Speaker 1: this hype that Sean McVeigh has been getting over the
Speaker 1: last two years. What better stage could Bill Belichick ask
Speaker 1: for than to knock the young prince off the throne
Speaker 1: than to completely destroy him or potentially attempt to embarrass
Speaker 1: him on the stage of the Super Bowl, like you know,
Speaker 1: remember in Fight Club when Ed Norton like pounded pulverized
Speaker 1: Jared Leto's face, Orto Jordan Catalano's face and said I
Speaker 1: and They're like, why did you do that, Psycho boy?
Speaker 1: I just wanted to destroy something beautiful. I think that's
Speaker 1: where Belichick's head is at in this game, and I
Speaker 1: think what could happen here. I think that's where your heads, No,
Speaker 1: don't go near sea face, And I think that leads
Speaker 1: to potential issues at midfield. I mean I get I
Speaker 1: get a sort of wish casting vibe with this one.
Speaker 1: Uh you know, number one, McVeigh would never do that
Speaker 1: to Belichick, So it has to go from the other way,
Speaker 1: Belichick towards McVeigh. That would be the more likely because
Speaker 1: he's done it before. Bill, we haven't seen it in
Speaker 1: a while, because but he is It's documented that sometimes
Speaker 1: he gets a little cranky. He could be a sore loser,
Speaker 1: and on this stage against the kid, maybe when he
Speaker 1: loses the Super Bowl, he looks like a cadaver that
Speaker 1: has had all the blood drained out of him, Like,
Speaker 1: I really feel bad. I'm a Patriot. I love Bill
Speaker 1: Belichick more than so bad for him in that scenario.
Speaker 1: I'll take you up on it, will Okay, Well, why not?
Speaker 1: Belichick does live in a Hollywood out volcano in the
Speaker 1: middle of the Pacific Ocean. That's absolutely true. But the
Speaker 1: odds are against you on this one. I'm taking it, okay.
Speaker 1: I think, like, like the way you've been reading the
Speaker 1: Patriots for years, you've got this totally wrong. Bill Belichick
Speaker 1: has more so much smoke. I mean, you've been waiting,
Speaker 1: You've been saying gradual decline for for a few m
Speaker 1: v ps. They Bill Belichick has more respect for Sean McVeigh,
Speaker 1: I think, than just about any coach in the league.
Speaker 1: And that's why I'll be so disgraceful. And I think
Speaker 1: Bill beltics showed last three hand he handled the loss well,
Speaker 1: and if they win, he's going to be in a
Speaker 1: great mood. And I think be as complementary as humanly
Speaker 1: possible to Sean McVeigh, like someone that he sees I
Speaker 1: think kind of carrying on another guy from a football
Speaker 1: family who he loves essentially, So you're taking it. Somebody's
Speaker 1: not buying it. I'm not buying it. That's an onion hanger,
Speaker 1: by the way that you want to I mean they don't.
Speaker 1: The sandwich tastes the same whether it's an onion hanger
Speaker 1: or not. A touchdown will be scored by the defense
Speaker 1: or special teams. This is like an old desert people
Speaker 1: propet I got a little excited. This is right in
Speaker 1: his house. I want to Yeah, I'm trying. So no
Speaker 1: more specifics, just any special teamer or defensive player exactly,
Speaker 1: a non offensive touchdown. Yeah, I'll take that. I mean,
Speaker 1: I'm with you. I I could feel Kyle van Noy
Speaker 1: maybe on one of those punt where they don't know
Speaker 1: who's coming through and he pops it free and John
Speaker 1: Simon runs into the end zone for a page. We're
Speaker 1: the only football podcast that talks about special teams with
Speaker 1: such enthusiasm. It's incredible. I mean, it's as it separates us. Smart.
Speaker 1: I'll take you because I know, no matter what my
Speaker 1: profit is, it will be talked down, shredded, and not accepted.
Speaker 1: And I think I think Tom Brady could get picked off.
Speaker 1: I mean, you're you got Wade Phillips, who who confused
Speaker 1: them quite a bit in two thousand and fifteen with
Speaker 1: the Broncos by changing up his coverages. And I did
Speaker 1: notice this week, Wade Phillips, notice that Bill belicks Check
Speaker 1: said that he hasn't changed his defense in thirty years.
Speaker 1: And he made a little sly comment the other day.
Speaker 1: It's like, Hey, I'm just a simple guy. I haven't
Speaker 1: changed my defense in thirty years. And I just thought, oh, no,
Speaker 1: he is sending the house at Brady and either to
Speaker 1: leave or Marcus Peters, who are as good as anyone,
Speaker 1: maybe picks him off and goes to the house Peters.
Speaker 1: I like. By the way, shout out to Dave Damnishek
Speaker 1: who reached out to Wade Phillips and had him dressed
Speaker 1: up like his dad bum getting off the plane coming
Speaker 1: to Super Bowl week. That was a nice moment, nicely
Speaker 1: done by Scheck and bum Phillips. If you haven't read
Speaker 1: about him, one of the great characters in NFL history,
Speaker 1: where can you read about him? West? Here comes the
Speaker 1: plug NFL dot com slash love you Blue Chris Leslie,
Speaker 1: Ladies and gentlemen, It is a great peace and West
Speaker 1: is a gifted writer. Finally, Mark, they've taken that off
Speaker 1: the website. Okay, super Bowl fifty three will float along
Speaker 1: at a pedestrian pace. Everything will go just as planned, until,
Speaker 1: in a moment of total weirdness, a foreign object tumbles
Speaker 1: down from the ceiling of the murs Sadi's Ben Stadium
Speaker 1: and onto the field like a pink. Uh no, not
Speaker 1: our last past There might there might not buffalo. Yeah
Speaker 1: I'm not. I'm not predicting what the object will be,
Speaker 1: but it will not be a human So that well,
Speaker 1: that's good. Yes, But maybe one of those bags of
Speaker 1: confetti typically stored for the winning team like comes undone
Speaker 1: like early in the game, and it just reigins down
Speaker 1: on the field. Maybe a stadium worker, one of those
Speaker 1: ones that are way high up, drops his ruben sandwich.
Speaker 1: Maybe a dead pearl like a dead bird tumbles down
Speaker 1: to the turf. Shouldn't be flying inside of a dome
Speaker 1: to begin with, fault. I'm not sure what the object
Speaker 1: will be, but something will fall on the field now
Speaker 1: or the game wraps. Let me say this mark, because
Speaker 1: what happens with these controversial props you make, they're not believe,
Speaker 1: just enough wiggle room where no matter what happens, you
Speaker 1: make a case that you're right, so let me I
Speaker 1: want to let cover all our basins here gets specific.
Speaker 1: I mean, if like something falls out of a referees pocket,
Speaker 1: or if someone drops you know it's from it's from
Speaker 1: the roots of the stadium, like we're talking, it falls
Speaker 1: like it has to be significant enough that the broadcast
Speaker 1: mentions it. Absolutely, We're all going to be structure. I'm
Speaker 1: not saying that, oh, no one saw in a small
Speaker 1: objects fall from the ceiling. No one saw it, But
Speaker 1: I'm gonna argue that it happened. It's going to create
Speaker 1: Twitter storm and a waves of mysterious comments, and people
Speaker 1: has to fall from above from from them. What I
Speaker 1: wrote was because we always have to go back and
Speaker 1: read these things. A foreign object till down from the
Speaker 1: ceiling of the Mercedes Benz Stadium. I mean from the
Speaker 1: ceiling area. I'm talking like one of the highest ledges
Speaker 1: up there. What is your access level on your credential?
Speaker 1: Can you get up there? No comment? I'm walking this closely.
Speaker 1: You will. I will here to take you on. I
Speaker 1: will take you and make you actually buy the sandwich
Speaker 1: this time, please, because this is too ridiculous to make
Speaker 1: it a sweeper all right, we're we're coming up near
Speaker 1: the end now, so this game prediction time. Let's let's
Speaker 1: set up the steaks as you guys as listeners of
Speaker 1: the pod. No, and it'd be really weird if you
Speaker 1: weren't a listener of the podcast and you were here.
Speaker 1: But if that is, this is your first show, I
Speaker 1: hope you like it, but we do, sund out to
Speaker 1: the bearded guy there hope. Bearded guy said, all right,
Speaker 1: it's fine, will you start listening. Yeah, it's like C
Speaker 1: C plus plus. All right. We pick a lock every
Speaker 1: week Week one through seventeen, and then through the postseason
Speaker 1: and entering Super Bowl Sunday. Greg and I eliminated. It
Speaker 1: just wasn't our year. What are you gonna do? I
Speaker 1: got a trophy from last year. But right now, yeah,
Speaker 1: we're here, Mark and West West. You're one game behind Mark,
Speaker 1: so there will be a lock. Now you can both
Speaker 1: lock into the same game, and then it's over. Mark.
Speaker 1: You're the champion, the undisputed champ. Let's see how it
Speaker 1: all plays out. Mark, since you have the lead, it's
Speaker 1: only fair you get to make the choice first. We
Speaker 1: would never have a scenario where I take West out
Speaker 1: tonight we're not gonna have that. This is going to
Speaker 1: go down to the final game. I admire your sportsmanship.
Speaker 1: I really even right to this second and not sure
Speaker 1: who to pick. I have gone back and forth. I
Speaker 1: am going to this little effect Mark's mood for the
Speaker 1: rest of the week. And there's a lot of pressure
Speaker 1: not just on Mark right now but on all of us.
Speaker 1: What I walk out of the moon knows what I'm
Speaker 1: talking about. There is a moment like a week ago
Speaker 1: or so where he led us into his mind where
Speaker 1: he mentioned He's like, you know, West and I We've
Speaker 1: just been thinking about this lock thing hour after hour
Speaker 1: the last week and a half, and I'm thinking, I
Speaker 1: don't think West has not one. I cannot do anything
Speaker 1: worse than tie for the leads. So there is a
Speaker 1: little bit of an element of piece. But you are right.
Speaker 1: I have made life hard for you all and for
Speaker 1: my significant other based on many things. Um, West, I
Speaker 1: am going to pick because I think this also aligns
Speaker 1: you with your future significant other. I'm going to pick
Speaker 1: the New England Patriots. Let's get a score. The score
Speaker 1: eight to thirty four shootout, that's what they call it
Speaker 1: in the industry. West, you now have the option. The
Speaker 1: floor is open, you can accept lock defeat, which hypothetically
Speaker 1: you could because you're you're open and that you don't
Speaker 1: really care. Uh and you love carrying the water up
Speaker 1: and down the hill. So it seems like I might
Speaker 1: be a little bit of a quandary for you right now. Well,
Speaker 1: people don't really remember this, but the Rams were the
Speaker 1: better team all year. Absolutely, It's not until the last
Speaker 1: two weeks that people thought the page Riots were better.
Speaker 1: The Rams are the better, more talented team. I stand
Speaker 1: with the paramore a wedding and I'm locking it up.
Speaker 1: Well done. And and what what you did last week
Speaker 1: locking against the Rams with with the Saints. I worried
Speaker 1: that there would be no wedding to go to in May.
Speaker 1: That was a risky move, but a show that you're
Speaker 1: a man of principle. That was your pick then, But
Speaker 1: your pick now puts us in a lock off with
Speaker 1: a title on the line. It's the way it should be.
Speaker 1: Hubb hubba um. I will tell you this. I you know,
Speaker 1: I don't want the Patriots to win, but after everything
Speaker 1: seems to be surging for New England, don't do it
Speaker 1: have some integrity? Well, let's see everything seems to be
Speaker 1: they're peaking the Patriots at the right time, which annoys
Speaker 1: me because they did feel like this was the end.
Speaker 1: But then what we saw in the divisional playoffs against
Speaker 1: the Charges, my goodness, that was scary. They carried it
Speaker 1: on to go to Arrowhead and now they got the confidence.
Speaker 1: And what's weird about this Patriots team is that there's
Speaker 1: what pressure is there for the Patriots? Ultimately, yes, you
Speaker 1: want to win the super Bowl, but I mean Tom
Speaker 1: Brady wins the super Bowl and wins the m v P,
Speaker 1: he's already the goat. If he loses, It's like there's
Speaker 1: no shame in losing to the Rams. And I means,
Speaker 1: you've been to nine super Bowls, so there's there's no
Speaker 1: heat on him. This this is a dangerous Well you
Speaker 1: could say that, but the way I look at it
Speaker 1: is no pressure at all. You're gonna lock up the
Speaker 1: Patriots for a second straight week. But then I then
Speaker 1: I thought about something. In fact, it wasn't something I thought.
Speaker 1: I was at my home last week, and I am
Speaker 1: not kidding when I say this. You think this is
Speaker 1: a manufacturer Joe Kizmark calls it. I had a vision,
Speaker 1: a straight up legit vision of ramp were going. Yes
Speaker 1: of Rams left tackle Andrew Whitworth walking across the Mercedes
Speaker 1: Benz Stadium with his children in each arm. I am
Speaker 1: not kidding with a confetti coming down, and he is
Speaker 1: a champion. This was a real vision I had and
Speaker 1: because of that, I gotta lock up the Rams. It's
Speaker 1: a vision. You never mess with a vision. Can you
Speaker 1: picture it? I even have the children. He's got four kids, twins,
Speaker 1: Sarah and Drew, Michael and Katherine. I'll go with the twins,
Speaker 1: Sarah and Drew in each arm, walking across the confetti
Speaker 1: strewn field, and twins and twins. It's weird when they're kids. Okay,
Speaker 1: that's I thought. We got this guy out of here.
Speaker 1: He picked us in the Nancy Championship game. Right here
Speaker 1: we go. I think the story of Rob Gronkowski is
Speaker 1: one of football's great stories, the great greatest tight end
Speaker 1: of all time, A man child who changed what is
Speaker 1: possible at the position. Have you watched develop physical great
Speaker 1: hands down until this season? And this season has been
Speaker 1: tough to watch. If you love Gronk and you believe
Speaker 1: in Gronk, it's like watching a superhero who suddenly doesn't
Speaker 1: have any powers until the playoffs, and then he starts
Speaker 1: playing a little better in the first game, and then
Speaker 1: he comes out a little bit in the second game.
Speaker 1: And I look at him, and I look at a
Speaker 1: guy who knows he's one game away from the end
Speaker 1: from retirement. He's feeling free. His body is giving up
Speaker 1: on him, but he has a chance to be great
Speaker 1: one more time and rise from the ashes from what
Speaker 1: has been a terrible season. He's not the only person
Speaker 1: that's had a terrible season. There's a little man by
Speaker 1: the name of doctor Rainmaker. Oh no, oh, no oh,
Speaker 1: Who's who's had it tough this year. Made a lot
Speaker 1: of wrong picks and lost a lot of people their homes,
Speaker 1: not to mention your plans and their children's college. And unfortunately,
Speaker 1: the you know, the people, the people that were with them,
Speaker 1: they can't be here tonight because they're in jail or there.
Speaker 1: They really don't have friends anymore. Honey, we can't get
Speaker 1: Richard Braces. I trusted the Rainmaker. But much like Rob Gronkowski,
Speaker 1: you gotta save your best for the playoffs. You gotta
Speaker 1: push all your chips in the table for the super Bowl.
Speaker 1: And in the city of Atlanta. You best you're gotta
Speaker 1: make it rain down on him, the Rainmakers. I mean,
Speaker 1: come on, you could go double or nothing for the
Speaker 1: whole season. I wanted to drop dollar bills on this
Speaker 1: entire place, but it wasn't gonna happen with the Shadowy
Speaker 1: Lake fire, but the whole in NFL, you know, gambling thing.
Speaker 1: This might be the last time it's the Doctor Rainmaker.
Speaker 1: So it is retiring with a win on Sunday thirty one.
Speaker 1: All right, and I have one. All right, there we go.
Speaker 1: This is exciting, yes, and it's been so exciting being
Speaker 1: with you guys. This is an amazing experience for us.
Speaker 1: So before we go, as I said at the top
Speaker 1: of the show, we'll take some questions for the audience
Speaker 1: if if you have any do we I didn't even
Speaker 1: think this. Do we have a microphone? Ricky? Yeah? We do? Great?
Speaker 1: All right, who's up first? I can't see it here
Speaker 1: we go right up in front, gentlemen. Check check check,
Speaker 1: Hey man, what's your name? My name is Johnny. Alright. Soo,
Speaker 1: so we've we've had a lot of talk in the
Speaker 1: pod in the last week about over and under on drinks.
Speaker 1: So you guys are gonna be having and I see
Speaker 1: you guys are drinking straight Tito right now in the
Speaker 1: water bottle. Of course, where are we at? I want
Speaker 1: to know individual counts all throughout. Okay, thanks, all right,
Speaker 1: that's a fair question. And as Gregg hinted at earlier,
Speaker 1: why don't we start the low end of the scale.
Speaker 1: I'm not a drinking man. I'm just gonna leave it
Speaker 1: at that. He doesn't. He doesn't focus on drink. He
Speaker 1: just judges us. I feel like it's been you know,
Speaker 1: it's been pretty under control. They're actually making us do
Speaker 1: a lot of work now here, which it really gets
Speaker 1: in the way of having fun. But you know, Tito's
Speaker 1: He's always my friend. He's the one person I can
Speaker 1: trust in this world. So we're probably about I don't know,
Speaker 1: ten twelve deep. It's disappointing, West. It had been talked
Speaker 1: about that you were potentially gonna have a hundred drinks.
Speaker 1: Where do we come down? My biggest takeaway of Super
Speaker 1: Bowl week is that I'm not going to come close
Speaker 1: to a hundred drinks. Stilled half of it on my shirt.
Speaker 1: The night is young. What West was walking around the
Speaker 1: bar in our hotel with a big red stain on
Speaker 1: his shirt and I said, I said, Wes putting that up.
Speaker 1: Don't tell me what to do. That's where. What about you, Mark,
Speaker 1: you've been having fun? Well, I mean I would argue
Speaker 1: that compared to pass super Bowls, the count is far
Speaker 1: lower because we have these early call times. Last two
Speaker 1: nights helped, though they helped quite a bit. I've only
Speaker 1: been here four nights. Yeah, well, I don't know to
Speaker 1: the number, but I hope to go past fifty by
Speaker 1: the end of tonight. And we want Yeah. But the
Speaker 1: fun thing is if anybody wants to hang out and
Speaker 1: get a drink, please join us. Let's have fun together.
Speaker 1: Who else got a question? We got one over here
Speaker 1: from Johnny. Johnny, So my favorite segment is you're the
Speaker 1: GM and what has been your I guess y'all's a
Speaker 1: favorite role to play GM or Coke. My memory only
Speaker 1: last like three days. Maximum memory was that Dave Gettleman,
Speaker 1: I think was it was a fun guy at one point, Yeah, Gettleman,
Speaker 1: it was good. He really nailed the accent on Gettleman.
Speaker 1: You've got in character. For me, it's a no brainer.
Speaker 1: This one's I wish we could play. Are the Lasid version?
Speaker 1: Of the song. But just imagine in your head right now.
Speaker 1: It's beautiful. Yeah. I love playing Alway because he's just
Speaker 1: larger than life. And it seems like any conversation with
Speaker 1: John Elway is just like him yelling at you, either
Speaker 1: about a player or about one of his used car lots,
Speaker 1: or just imagine that. Yes, how about you. I believe
Speaker 1: I coined the sugar bear nickname for Reggie McKinnon. Did
Speaker 1: a nice job with that. Yes, so that would be
Speaker 1: my favorite. There you go. I really enjoyed playing the
Speaker 1: role of Saucy Brown, but then he was sent very
Speaker 1: far away. Where is I don't think he's even identifiable
Speaker 1: on Google searches and I am pretty good at Google
Speaker 1: searching people. You guys want to hear a Sessler bar story. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I know where you're going. Yes, this was a San
Speaker 1: Francisco Super Bowl and simone please leave the room for
Speaker 1: three minutes, and Connor Or, who is a champion, purchased
Speaker 1: a bunch of drinks for us while we were finishing
Speaker 1: up the Super Bowl podcast. We came back and Mark
Speaker 1: put on a show yelling in front of all the
Speaker 1: sports writers in San Francisco. Just randomly, every three minutes.
Speaker 1: So Sha Brown, Well my expectations were met, Alright, what
Speaker 1: else we got? Alright? So my my question is a
Speaker 1: two parter number one. I've I've been watching Greg throughout
Speaker 1: this entire thing, and I've been noticing his thousand yards
Speaker 1: there and yikes, Yeah, he seemed to be zoning out,
Speaker 1: and I've just been wondering, um, with his devotion to
Speaker 1: uh the j r VP podcast, I've been wondering, Uh,
Speaker 1: do you ever wonder where his allegiance is? Lying he
Speaker 1: was back on the acid. Don't try to make trouble.
Speaker 1: Dan definitely doesn't like this question. Yeah, listen, answer the question,
Speaker 1: Stinky Davis. Like like your tendencies and a thousand yards
Speaker 1: there you would get used to if you just got
Speaker 1: to know me. That's kind of my general function, Like Dan,
Speaker 1: Dan was talking about a number of things we discussed
Speaker 1: apparently as a group on the way over here, which
Speaker 1: I had completely zoned out for. I'm just kind of
Speaker 1: in my own mind thinking about things, and I would
Speaker 1: never worry about allegiances when it comes to j r VP.
Speaker 1: That is about to get canceled shortly based on our
Speaker 1: our last episode. I mean, all I do is changed
Speaker 1: the name one more time to j RP because the
Speaker 1: vanity is so definitely implied. Who else got a question?
Speaker 1: Marcus over here has one for you. Hey guys, how
Speaker 1: you doing? Hey man on a scala one the team
Speaker 1: New Orleans being one. Um, let's say Miami is a team.
Speaker 1: How was Atlanta ranked as a Super Bowl city so far? Ah? Well,
Speaker 1: I would say that one of the most important things.
Speaker 1: And we've been to a bunch now humble brag. Um.
Speaker 1: We're very lucky that we've been in the NFL centers
Speaker 1: a lot. And one of the big things you want
Speaker 1: is accessibility. You don't want to be getting on a
Speaker 1: bus and traveling. Our is to get to the stadium
Speaker 1: or to the media night or to the hotel where
Speaker 1: the teams are. Atlanta, they do it right. Solid infrastructure
Speaker 1: every these clubs. Yeah, infrastructure, Uh so we love that.
Speaker 1: And people and and and yes, so the infrastructure is tremendous.
Speaker 1: But the people that's better than a Patriots cheer. Yeah.
Speaker 1: The people also are super friendly, which we've been talking
Speaker 1: about everyone, whether it's people in the hotel or just
Speaker 1: people on the street. Very cool. So it's been great
Speaker 1: and uh, I can't wait to find out what Atlanta
Speaker 1: has to offer. There was one super Bowl. There was
Speaker 1: one super Bowl where west that I'm not gonna even
Speaker 1: say the city. We were stationed like a hundred and
Speaker 1: forty minutes outside of the main part of town and
Speaker 1: what miles the rubble on every court right, it felt
Speaker 1: like Oswald's minced Russia, and uh we were concerned for
Speaker 1: our own safety during that Super Bowl. It's three hours
Speaker 1: and forty five minutes from the Mercedes bens Dome to
Speaker 1: Huckapoos on Tybee Island. So Atlanta is my favorite super
Speaker 1: Bowl city. I'm heading there Monday. Forget the charter flight
Speaker 1: back to l A. Yeah, infrastructure at geography, proximity, and
Speaker 1: southern hospitality, a couple more hi um. During Mark's Sandwich props,
Speaker 1: we get a lot of apocalyptic scenarios. What apocalyptic scenario
Speaker 1: do you think should be the name of Delaware's comeback album? Now?
Speaker 1: For those of you who do not know, including new guy,
Speaker 1: how you doing, Buddy? Yes, Greg in high school had
Speaker 1: a it was kind of like a neo funk acid
Speaker 1: rock band called So Inaccurate. He was the lead singer
Speaker 1: and keyboardist. Uh yeah, just kind of like little Moroccos.
Speaker 1: Sometimes there's like the lead the lead singer I did
Speaker 1: have died black hair down to here, ladies, think about it.
Speaker 1: We note from your Annie Lennox cover that you and
Speaker 1: sing that's true. So is there anyway? And we have
Speaker 1: on our show reached out there to your band members.
Speaker 1: We've been trying to track down a copy of Delaware's
Speaker 1: debut album and still the only album. We will get
Speaker 1: it one day. Will there ever be could there ever
Speaker 1: be a second Delaware albums? Well, there was a couple albums.
Speaker 1: There was how do You Want It Cooked? Of course
Speaker 1: essentially Strawberry Rhubarb was the label. Is Mike Burr in
Speaker 1: the house here? He was a Delaware fan. Mike Burr,
Speaker 1: get him back in the mix. All right? Two more questions?
Speaker 1: Two more. It's like none of us answered the question
Speaker 1: at all. Melissa in the back here as a question, Hey,
Speaker 1: I was just wondering what team were you excited about
Speaker 1: before the season and then after the season you're just
Speaker 1: kind of disappointed. Besides the Jets, what about you, Wes.
Speaker 1: I hate to say it, I picked the Broncos like
Speaker 1: three times in September and thought they were gonna be
Speaker 1: fun to watch, and then I bailed on him by
Speaker 1: the time October started. Yeah, case Keenum just didn't have
Speaker 1: my answers your Falcons. I mean I picked him to
Speaker 1: win that, I picked them to make the Super Bowl.
Speaker 1: I'll give me a break. And it's like, oh gosh,
Speaker 1: two or three injuries, Like look at the Eagles last year.
Speaker 1: It was the most injured team in the league and
Speaker 1: they won the Super Bowl. That I thought the Falcons
Speaker 1: are gonna be so fun, so fast on defense. I
Speaker 1: love I do love the people down here. It's been
Speaker 1: as friendly, the food is amazing, and this team should
Speaker 1: have been much better than it was. I mean, I
Speaker 1: also picked the Falcons to win the Super Bowl, and
Speaker 1: I still like the team a lot. I think this
