We got Lincoln. Come on, it's six o'clock, right? It's time for early break brought to you by San Hills School live from Lincoln, America. Here's Jake Soran said did seem kind of meh. Oscar online Steve Sypill. Surprisingly good and long time college football assistant coach Bill Bush. I want to buy a couple ducks. I bring in two ducks to the office. This is early break. Good morning. Happy Friday to you, Steve Sypill, Jake Soran, and Bill Bush on early break. Hope you enjoyed a game in Australia last night. Wasn't much of a game. A little bit of that. I was in a hotel. You weren't a hotel. Lincoln Eastern Omaha North. How that game ended up? It was incredible game. It was the most exciting game ever. I was in a hotel. I was in a hotel. I was in a hotel. Lincoln Eastern Omaha North. How that game ended up? It was incredible game. It was the sloppiest game I've ever seen.
For the first day. Nothing but just for like 70. We'll give you an example. Right. First quarter, zero points. Second quarter combined. 42 points. What? I didn't know that. It's a weird game. Zero points after one. Then it went to 2121 and half. Who won? Yeah. North won and it was controversial. Okay. Was final. You got to find it. There was no like, whatever I could see. It was a good game. It was a good game. It was a final. It was a final. 3428 I believe. It is a good game. Yeah. The first quarter. What three turnovers in the first quarter? I stopped listening to this. I went up and I went up and talked to Austin. Okay. And we were both. Good job. I had the same look on our face. Like they think they just wanted to go home after the first quarter. And then all of a sudden it was like, this is kind of interesting. Yeah. This was at C-Crest. The C-Crest field last night. How was it? How was it? The crowd. It was a good crowd. Solid crowd. No, it wasn't that many. I mean, this is not Miller, South Miller, North. No, offensive Lincoln. He's.
I, uh, three foul. Yeah, the whole thing. No, with the. Here's where C-Crest. Is it entertaining that question? No, that's fine. The people don't like the crowd thing. I don't know. I don't know. I'm tired to assess there. I know that I should get past you. All the AD today and we're going to get a ticket update. I don't know. Get the ticket sale. I know what to sale. All right. I didn't. I wasn't pacing around the concourse trying to figure out and count individually who was there. But the whole thing was C-Crest is a joke. What? What? What? Easy now. Come on. Well, because you have to schedule games on Thursdays because of availability. Imagine having your homecoming game on a Thursday. And today, Gigi danced in some of the players. Guess what they have at 730. What? Have a math test. After a game. What is that? Thursday night. First of all, it's by the crowd. Cros are different on Fridays than they are on Thursday. They are. Yes, that is for sure. They had their homecoming. That is for sure. Let's put it together my head. At homecoming on Thursday. Yeah, that's strange.
That's strange. The dance is tonight. That's okay. Yeah, so we'll be part of some photos and stuff. Pictures with G. But anyway, I don't like it. You know, we have to schedule something like that. No. Rankled people at LPS right out of the game. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, you know where I'm at LPS. What's our address, J? 1040 O Street. I'm on down. I'm on down. I'm linking the rest to 6808. I don't like game scheduled on Thursday. Do that again, please. Yes. 1040 O Street. Sweet 100. Lincoln, Nebraska. 6808. They were downtown. Yeah. And we'll have a good conversation about it. I don't like games on Thursdays. High school games. High school games on Thursdays. You don't mind watching college football Thursdays, though, right? No, I don't. Watch it. You know what? The next day, those guys ain't going to class. You think that there's a game on a Thursday night and they're going to class next morning? No, they're not. They're not. They're not. They're not like Jake Young going. They have a lot of Thursday. They have a lot of Thursday. They have a lot of Thursday. The late Jake Young. I didn't play the Thursday game. I'm the Thursday game. The Jake Young played.
Yeah, that's what I got. You are on it today. He is on it today. You're on it today. Thank you. Thanks for coming ready. Well, I also got to. I had to snap on the whole pumpkin thing earlier. I mean, I got caught. Aggressive. Aggressive criticism of the pumpkin display. I can't even repeat what I said. Well, to be fair, it's not the Halloween display. Yeah, it is just for September. Like they didn't put the the the pumpkins are not. The spiders September. There's pumpkins available. The pumpkin patch opens this Saturday most places like you know, a couple of. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. I don't want to get in that argument. I. Today of grievances. That's a hero. Aaron. Aaron. Aaron. He's an angry person for me that somebody has a pumpkin. I mean, it's all right. It's all right. I got it got me needed. Steven said, wow, that was that was a lot. It's aggressive. Yeah. He. He cursed. There was cursing. Yeah, that's a brought me to Jake ruined in the thing about that 13 to 10 game.
Yeah. It was a low scoring game. Not much offense. People wanted offense in the first game of the season. Oh, I can. You want to hear about off. What was the score last night? One game. I'll get to the one second. Sorry. There was as we pointed out one college game last night. Miami Florida A&M. That game at one point was 77 to zero. No point. They had a 10 minute running clock in the fourth quarter. They went to the running clock. 10 minute running clock. Okay, stop with this. No. Stop with these games. Oh, stop with these games. I mean, that's just grievance Friday. He had it's grievance Friday. What are we doing in the schedule these games? You're. You're in the national championship in your game like that. I'm not. I don't know, Bill. I don't know what to tell you on that. It's not like it's a new thing. I mean, Nebraska used to do it. Did we have games like that? Oh, I don't remember. There's no 10 minute running clock. I'll tell you that. Here's why this can't. These stats are just. These are worse than video game. These are worse than video game stats. Thank you, Jake. Okay, Miami. Miami hasn't done anything. Miami.
Read me of his phone. Miami first downs. 42 for the A&M 4. Yes, right. Now Miami had a school record in yards in this game. I'm not going to say that. That's right. Now Miami had a school record in yards in this game. 856 yards. 856 yards. You're not. You're not. It's not even safe. Right. It's not even safe. They averaged 12 yards per play. Yeah. Houston, Christians, you should beat them by 40. Jake was shaking. They didn't have a third down, like they didn't have a third down ever in the game. It never got the third down. So maybe the fourth. This is good information. I'm telling you, they enter the fourth quarter without having a third down ever in this ballgame. Yeah, that's not getting. You're not getting anything out of that. 430 yards rushing. 426 passing. 4 to A&M finally get over 100 yards in their last drive. Yeah, that's not getting on. 107. I can't believe that benefits anybody. Any. Anybody. It's nobody. 77 to 7, your final score.
But it benefit your four string if there is such a thing. I mean, if I were at a school, I mean, immediately second quarter. So guys that apologize, we're not playing this. But here's the hard part is sometimes it's like, when you do all that work, when you do all that work, all season long, you only get 12 games. But my point is, you want Malachi out there? No, you got a lot of good points here. I mean, it's one of your 12 games. Don't make it that. It's on the. It's on your AD. That is Joe. I mean, there are 59 and a half point favorites to cover with these. It would be different if all of a sudden Ohio State beat, let's just say Michigan State, 77 enough. That's different. You go hold it. That's just different. It's just impressive result. No, that's just an impressive result. Yeah. Not when you're playing something, when you know, you're 59 and a half point, that's unbelievable. What would the AD say for Miami that we're paying, we're paying Florida international a lot of money that will keep their athletic department of
Florida, help keep it afloat? It's true, but it's not Florida international. It's over A&M. Florida A&M. Florida A&M. We're paying them a lot of money. No, I said a thousand times. It's not your job to fund other programs. Yeah. That's just not like right now. If there's a living Friday, there is a really high right now. It is. There's a station that wasn't doing as well. Are we supposed to help them out? No. No. No. I'm not a bad comparison. We're both doing the same thing. So it's the first of all, I apologize. Florida A&M. Yep. The Rattlers didn't show up last night. Tell me the last time they're there, I mean, Florida A&M. You know what, here's a part. For that coach, you're staffing those guys. It's not fair. It's not fair. For A&M. Yeah, that's just like, it's like Nebraska, Western coming down to play Nebraska. It's like, oh, no, it's not fair. It's what it was. Basically, yeah. It's what it was. No, it's unfair. I mean, I don't know. I think you put that on the, I mean, you put it on the AD who scheduled the game. It might not even be their current AD. It might be some other AD, maybe two ADs ago, but name names.
If they don't change that to a 10 minute running clock, they're going to score a hundred points. It was 77 points mid-third quarter. They're going to get to 100. I mean, there's no sign of defense at all. It's kind of odd, but they're 2-1-0 now. I mean, shouldn't really, yeah. Shouldn't count. Yeah. 2-1-0, though. Yeah. It wasn't bowling Florida AMM. Yeah. That's not even a, that's not even like a, was it worth worth going to as a fan? No. That had to be, no unattended. I can't imagine this by Amian Thursday night. Let's see what it says, attends here. Whatever it is, we know that will not be at the, yeah, it will be like 58-thousand. They're, they're saying 63,000 618 showed up. I like to just, like, look at the film of it. Yeah. And see what that looks like. You won't learn much. That's good grievance Friday talk. talk. Well, you're very aggrieved to that. We did talk about yesterday that if we weren't sure what travel plans were proper for the Rams or the Niners going. Yeah. So I really switched little. It's still idle. Shit. Shit. Well, it appears the Niners made the right
call because they're there for eight days prior to the game where the Rams showed up the day before had 27 hours before the landing before they actually played the game. And you could tell and you could tell. Did you they lost 27 to seven? Okay. Now there's still a great football team. They're going to have a fine year. Super bowl. And maybe they left this office in well, whatever. That was just one game. But they made a bad decision. They didn't look right. They're better team than that last night. And they got pounded 27 to seven. I only got back from from the whole code game to catch some of the fourth quarter and a little bit in the third and fourth, but it didn't look. I mean, Steve Samson's going to look so much better looking up the word. Everything about it was just they just look so much better. And I don't know if they are that much better. I mean, you have a hard time convincing me. The Rams are really good. They are Stafford scored seven points scored seven. Okay. Now, yeah. Ram was up seven three in the second. So they actually they were respectable for a while. They were horrible in the second half. Not existing. But you have to ask the question. They could have played that way. Had they
gotten their eight day. It could have happened. They could have not you're not wrong. You're not wrong. You're never going to push back on the now it's going to be there's no chance that if the team goes or get next year, what are you going to do? I like the Rams playing. They're not doing it. They're going to go over. We're going over eight days earlier, whatever it is early. I'm just suggesting it doesn't necessarily you are causing a fact that that is fair. No push back. Yeah, I don't think also if you went over there nine years, nine years cardinals and the cardinals got beat. I don't know if you'd be as adamant. Well, they made a huge air in travel because if they don't do that, they probably win that game. No, no, they don't. We touched down passes for Brock Purtie. Purtie night. He had 205 passing yards in general of 27 seven. Where do you play height? Where do you play college yet? Purtie Iowa State. This cyclone. So they talked about it. Casey still to Sihock this weekend. They do. There's 14 point dogs. Yeah. There's 14 point dogs to Iowa this weekend. I don't have a grievance with I think you sure did have a grievance
with that. Oh, yeah. I went to Casey's. I couldn't even could even get through the line. Everyone just went ask me about Iowa State every time I go there. They were like eight no. And there was worth talking about Nebraska was like, but it's just none of three and five. And you're just like, Oh, I was stayed. We go again. I was a talk. Can't go anywhere. Yeah. Yeah. I can't. I can't. When I was in the game and now it's Penn State talk every place I go. It's just. It's stuck back. Yeah. No, I got. Yeah. Oh, great. Great. The Niners. Oh, yeah. I got a phone call from great last night. Great. Actually, I get a text at like nine o'clock on the dot. Say, Hey, do you have time for a quick five minute phone call? I have a golf question about Wooden Hills. I said, well, sure, I played every Monday in the summertime of the last 10 years. It's talked. You and AJ doesn't play it. AJ, but he texted me several times. AJ did just about random things. We still talk. Sure. You do. We still like to show you. We still talk very defensive. We still talk. Now Greg wanted a, I get you not five minute whole by whole synopsis of where not to hit at Wooden
Hills. He's playing the front nine today. For the corporate games. I think it like seven thirty. He said playing in the corporate games. It's like a thing is trying to get into the corporate game. Yeah. It's like the qualifier for the corporate game. He's been practicing a lot. That's Greg. I'll be disposing of your keys. I brought them in there. The keys are in your keys. And I, and I've put what's that? No, I'm just going to throw them away. I've had it with them. I know we had a well, I was grieving. The system set up. We're going to get it. It was an exchange for a chocolate milk that I would have. We did sit on the air yesterday. Yeah. That was still happening. Right. Come today. You can't because he's playing the tee off at seven. He could come right now. No, hold it time out time out. Hold it. We're not teeing off at seven, 15. Just look at seven, 15 when it like looks like outside. I know. I know. I know. All the time. I think he said seven, thirty five. Oh, well, but it's a great time. Anyway, I was standing at the keys. He, yeah, he wanted to a whole Bible. I do this to him right now. It of all times. He's trying to walk by the corporate open. He's going to get sex dress and then with Steve, they'll go to
your garage. But you still go build a chocolate milk. Yes. They'll have a taco bar in the garage. Two phrases that make me laugh for food court and taco bar food court. Food court. Food court. Let's go to the food court. How about that? What that should be a bill drill. It's just walking around the food court. It is a happy place. Don't you need bills through? Yes, I do at that. In that. Well, let's start off as good as orange Julius. What is it? It's a heavily sugared orange dream. It tastes good. It tastes pretty good. Orange Julius are only in one place. They're in a food court. Try to get one. Try to get orange Julius. Try to go someplace. Also try to get one right now. No way. You better get to the mall. No way. No chance. No. You're not getting one of those cases. No, you're not going to get orange Julius. That's it. That's it. What's that? I used to think there's only one place in the West roads mall. West roads gateway. West roads. Every place. Yeah. Orange Julius. Try to get one of those somewhere else. There's been there was a time. I was I did a little bit of I I'd go to the this is when I was just out of coaching like by
days and I would go and I did some I'd go to the mall because I love things on on sale in January or March. And I would cruise by the food court there and there would be people manning each food court and there was no one there because people stand there with some Chinese food. You want some one one of some pizza or something like that. Give me samples. Right. No, I'm just saying that there is no one there to even there was like I can't imagine the food court was like when they get their books every day. I've done how do today? I've got 14 bucks. Oh, come on. It wasn't good at that time. It wasn't. What was this it gateway? Is it gateway? No, no, no, no, no, I have high on on on food court food, we just it was it was a very busy maybe in January may have been January. They're December packed at the ball. I love it.

An amazing amount of breakers including one fellow. I can't remember names all the names. Super Dave. No, Dave is a breaker. Yeah, job. No,

No, I do remember. Okay. I just don't want to say I'm that's fair. And one guy had a breaker shirt on that another one. He and he he drives a hog in his wife cuts hair. He's there all the time. And he listens every day. He said, I'll be up at six listening. Um, chiming. I think that's super Dave. No, you super Dave. Who is Dave does have a hog? Yeah, he's got a Harley. But there's this.

In the Fremont two, there's breakers all over, right? Yeah, you had two yesterday. Yeah, Fremont Omaha. It was a day. It has a little wiped out. Well, I had a, I'd buy a story also like that. Jake, tell me the name of the, when you went to the moneyed. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. In Oklahoma. My friend is Alex Robinson. Alex Robinson. So
there, you have a story about. They're well financed. And so I'm, I'm, I run into a good friend of mine, Ted Bowling, who invented track in field. I know who Ted Bowling invented traffic interviewed him at Wesley. And he's, he's, he could have had 50 division one jobs. He's kind of like Jake in a sense. Yes. Well, what's that supposed to mean? I mean, he's good. That means he's great. Oh, thank you. Yeah. I mean, he's white. He's white. Yes. Yeah. Final like me, too. No, not really. Okay. All right. He said, he's, he, he should have probably 20 teams in the Hall of Fame at Wesley. That Bella ran for him late. But he, oh, Bella ran for him. Yeah. He was dominating back in the 80s. He was. I used to interview him. So when he webbed, I, I ran to New York, and he goes, I went to a family reunion. He said, and I, and I, I mean, a high school reunion. And, and he's a rocket. And in another rocket there. And Wendy is there. Wendy would be the mom of Alex of Alex. And she's down and she listens to the show. She's a loyal breaker.
Single day from Overland Park, Kansas. Yes. And yes, over the past. Kansas like that. And they're extremely well-moneyed. Yet they're still listening to our show. Yeah, that's weird. That's, that's odd. That they're successful. Successful. That kind of car. Overland Park is right. Yeah. Over the past. Who's mom? Alex. So I went to Okoboji. Went to Okoboji. Remember, Jake went, Alex, that guy's mom. And what's Alex's connection to bowling? What's that? None. That's that. His mom is mom and Ted went to high school together. Okay. That's what it was. That's what I get. Okay. They're both rockets. It did take it. It did take a path. There was what it was. It did take a path. Like, Rubik's, Wendy, please text in. We appreciate you guys taking care of Jacob there. And maybe we could do a lot. We want to do a live remote from Arnold's Park. We do want that. That's Okoboji. That's Okoboji. You'd love that place. Imagine it's very nice. Imagine you in a live remote where no one knows who you are. We did that. We did it in Houston. Unbelievable. It was just us three in the bouncer. Drinking chocolate milk and people I go on. Why are you even that was a sad. That's awesome.
That was fun though. Yeah, it's kind of, and we're in the middle of two hotels. Pivers walking by like what? He was talking to each other. There was no circle of trust. There was no speakers. There's no speakers. There was just three guys talking to each other in a hallway. It was the last in a hallway. I was waiting to chime in. There's one of you guys sick too. I was ill. That's what I remember most about. I think I was okay. Bill, were you were you ailing it all? I had a meltdown that night before. So I was trying to find Jake. Remember that Jake? And Jake tried to tell me where he was located at. I couldn't find the car. Yeah. And I found it. Oh, yeah. I was so mad. Yes. Yes. And I asked people like, Hey, where are this? Oh, and I couldn't find it. So I just, you did. Yeah. We were trying to have to go food. There's one back to my room. Yeah. That's right. And I should have known. Yeah. We just should have known right there. That's bad. A bad home. Me and sip walk to the to the arena together got completely lost. We did not completely lost. We got lost. We're walking. I go, this doesn't look good to me. So there's no one going our direction. I was seeing that walk. Oh, yeah. In that moment. I don't think we're in the right spot. Or a whole. Then we got Jake as Jake. That was it. You've got
me good. We got you freaked me out. I go get him really good. Nothing. Cause I was using, you had me do. I was using Jake's credential. Yeah. Press pass to get in and and so right. So Jake, it'll be fine. It'll be fine. Don't worry about it. If I sip at a perfect. Jake's panicking. So when he's I go, I told him I go, tell Jake I didn't get in. They they they confiscated my stuff. I can't. Oh, I think I wish I could find that. It was it was a perfect text. I indicated there was a problem. And I take this over at the party at the at the I was at Tom's watch, Tom's watch party. And all of a sudden he got the deal. Bill's been arrested. But he didn't say I wouldn't believe that. But he says something about there's been a situation. We'll have an update later. But I'll talk to you. That sounds legit. Yeah. The way he phrased it. I was like, oh, there's a problem here. And you by your reaction, I had to dodge out. You did. Yeah. Right away. Yeah. Okay. I was kidding. No, Jake goes, I'll be right there. I'll be right there. I'll be right there. On my way. Yeah. On my way. Jake is in his sprint over there. He freaks me. Me and Steve went in the wrong doors. Remember that went in the wrong
doors. We got the guy with the security grab this went in the guy where we're starting to go. No, he's made this door right over here. Okay. So we couldn't figure that out. Then we got a $45 voucher, which did not pay for my cheeseburger. And I just think Bill Kipa cheeseburger. I went up. I got a I got a bacon cheeseburger in fries and he's like, like, that's $52. Okay. Okay. I get you seven bucks. I go, you know what? You're good. Just give me the give me the voucher. You're good. There's only good at certain windows. There was certain windows too. Yeah. I went to one and they're like, you got to go over there. And they're like a line of 70 people. I kind of want to go over there. Yeah. It was what you know why? Because okay. See was way better. Oh, the lounge we were in there. Oh, yeah. For the food lounge. Remember how good that was? Dang it. The circle of trust. I don't know if we'll ever have that much. We'll never have that moment again. There's certainly a try to relive it. No. No, we're going to be in Vermont playing it nine in the morning. For life of Montpellier. Prescott versus Buffalo. Here we go.
I've been from mine. Won't be the same. Oh, he was magical. It really was. He's in waffles and syrup. The circle of trust was incredible. Yeah. We'll try to go. I set it up. I was very proud of that. Yes. I'm proud of the semi-circle of trust. Yeah. This show. It was fun. It was good. You guys were freezing out there. Oh, so cold. It's cold. Yeah. It was cold. It was hot. It was hot. Then it was oddly hot during the day. 100 degrees. Yeah. Warmed up quite a bit. Yeah. Yeah. Anyway, well, yeah. That would that was. We maybe will have that sort of experience. You never know. Probably not OK. See, but nothing like it. Anything else? I don't shit. No. I mean, I don't think so. I don't. I don't. Shit. Yeah. That wraps it up for me. I used to word it great. Going wrong. The only thing that I have to clean up is I used to work. Grievance and agree. Don't the same thing. Agreed is an adjective that means feeling resentful. Angry or unfairly treated. That's not really what you're talking about. You just have grievances about a lot of things. Yeah. Pumpkins and September. Pumpkins and September. And Thursday night game.
Yeah. Guides have to go to get cast on Friday morning in Miami playing. Yes. For the A&M. 77. That's a grievance. Yeah. Those are three. They got late score, though. They didn't get shut out.

Brian in Johnston, Iowa was working at a resort in Okoboji. Nice moneyed. Had to get up in front of 200 people who are holding a meeting and tell them the news. I have never equated Okoboji with money. Oh, it is. Oh, it is. Because here's what it is. Well, it is. Think about that. There's one lake in Iowa.

David David from Anderson's for was living in Vegas watching everything in his living room. David's quite a human being by the way. The more I learn about David, the more interesting he gets. There's, if there's youth out there, they should go out there and do like a book report, but a report on David. Yes. I thought you're going to say 9-11. No, that'd be good too. But David, David, well, he's worked at Warhorse. Right. Yeah. So he's worked a lot of places. Yeah. San masters have Scott and Casey. Yes. Spent around. You played with the pandemic. I Scott.

It would be quite a conversation. Greg. Greg. Greg. Greg. Specialty was go carts. He produced go carts. Such a rapid rate. I think they had to let the company had to let him go because he was too fast. That'd be surprised if that's how it went down. I don't think that's what happened. That'd be surprised. Greg's building gold. You can look building go carts too fast engines. Briggs and Stratton. Bradley was in Mexico trying to get back across the border. How long and wonder what it takes. How long would that take us to call man? This is fascinating. Didn't think about that. Imagine if you were all the sudden you're you're you're just in in a rubah or Mexico or something on vacation. You're a resort. All of a sudden your country has got attacked. It's like well, we got to fly to 11, honey. No, you don't. You might not get back for a week or two.

Spirit. Just South of 48th and Holdridge. Great place to hang out all weekend long. You know what? You can bowl. You can play pool. 9-11. First person I would have called would have been Sarah.

That was fascinating. We could do that next hour too. I mean, I'm not suggesting that but we could.
It would be interesting. Where were you on 9-11? Why are we doing this today? It did hit me. I love what. A odd question. I used to. Before I get to break quick note as this bread for Nebraska. I mean up to 30 and a half. It's favorite Nebraska. What do you do? It was 28 and a half all week. Now it's 30 and a half. We'll talk to Todd Walker. The bowling green play by play now is 8-10 today. Okay. I have some questions. Yeah. Yeah. Now they were down 17-0 loss. Twenty to thirteen to Tarleton state. Tarleton state rush for two fifty eight on them. I think it was like six point eight of care. What was Akron last year? That score? Yeah. Sixty eight to zero. Carlson State went up and down the field. I don't want to hear Talson State's really good, because they are really good. They're actually, yes. We said, aren't they not hurt? But it's FCS. My point is I'm not gonna, don't give me this. Hey, listen. No, no, not doing that.
No, I hear you. I hear you. I hear you. This one, this doesn't anger me. Like, like, like, and like, like the game last night. It doesn't anger me like, like, Houston, Chris, it doesn't anger me. It's a Mac team. And that doesn't freak me out. But for the fact that for Nebraska to be Mac, Mac, FCS, then that that's what that's what bothers me. Yes. Yeah, I get that. Yeah, last night, debacle. That's a debacle. This shouldn't be playing Miami, and it's not right. Oh, just come. Yeah. But I think we all agree. If this is someone of a game in half time, we're all very disappointed. Even if they pull away in the second half, you, yeah. I agree with that. You know, blow out the first time. I don't disagree. I think if your mind is on business, if you're in a Braske player and your mind is on taking care of business, this game's over at halftime. If you come out and your mind's not on business and not improving, I guess that's a better way to say it. If your mind is on improving, then you will have the game in hand at halftime. That's exactly right.
I totally agree with you. Do it. 6 p.m. You can win the game without being full in, but then what? What are you getting out of it? Kickoff 6 p.m. Tomorrow night. 6. 6. You aren't going to the game. F.S.1. Is there a drone show? Yeah, there's a drone show after the game. Yeah, big drone show. I'm sticking around for the whole game. I'm going to watch the drone show. Not leaving a halftime.

He's using his firearms. Firearms. A lot of drinking. That's what they do. We're at the forest. Here we come. Yeah, of course. Exactly. A lot of parlays. Do they do parlays? Sure they do. Absolutely. There's a horse book there. Yeah, they do. Excuse me. I'd like to talk about the parlays system. You guys believe you're going to do it? Yes. Before we get to break. Jake, put the shotgun down. If you're hungry for breakfast, run sure lunch.
In downtown, they can where should the breakers go today? The bird. Early birds up and right now at 9th and K with free and spacious parking.
