2:15I'm Mark Titus. He is Brandon Walker. It's Tuesday, September 8th. We are live from Chicago. And boy, do we have a lot to talk about? Oh my God. Do we have a lot to talk about? But most importantly, before we talk about all the other stuff to talk about, the most important thing to talk about. Well, this is what I was talking all the talking about. If we're going to be talking about what I was talking about. Let's talk about Modello, Modello, Brandon College football season is Modello season. Saturdays are for the gridiron and surveys. The fight songs, the fanquakes, yes, the rivalry trophies are all better with an ice cold Modello in your hand. It's not just game day tradition. And those who keep college football traditions alive deserve a Modello Modello is the official beer sponsor of the college football playoff drink responsibly Modello special beer imported by crown imports. Chicago Illinois stock up now. Modello stock up now. Brandon, what do you want to talk about? I think we all know where we're headed to talk about. So let me give let me do a brief a brief talk about last night Florida State SMU. May I?

3:19Florida State depresses me, Mark. It depresses me. And I don't know in college basketball. If you have a team like this, but growing up, I live through the era where Florida State finished top five, 15 years in a row. Yeah. And then after that, they went through ebbs and flows. Now they're in a they're ever a flow. Ab I believe. I believe this is an ab. This is an ab and then flow flow is good. Right. Is it bad? They're an ab. Well, I guess it depends on perspective. So they're having if you live. If you yeah, they're having right now. So, um, Florida State depresses me because I. I think I like when Florida State's good in college football. Yeah. I like the spear on the helmet. Um, the pageantry, the, you know, chief osteo, all that. I just I love everything about Florida State. And when they're bad, it depresses me. And when they can't pay their power bill, it depresses me. When they can't be the team in terms of all over four times, and this is a field goal has a mistake after mistake after mistake after mistake at the prices. Me more last night was just kind of depressing to me. That's all.

4:24Two and 14 and the last. It's unbelievable. Is that is that a real stat? I saw that I did not believe it, but Is that real? You'll never 14 in their last 16 ACC games. You'll never see a bigger turnaround from 13 to no a couple of years ago. And I think it's a press press of the playoff to Yeah, immediately garbage. I guess you will see bigger turn around. I guess there are teams that lose to UMass by 16 points to start the season. Yeah, that's not good. TJ, did you ever were you able ever to because I know you haven't had serviced in a week. Were you able to see the score? No, I'm omnis now. You're omnis. I don't use the internet anymore. Wow. What you're, may I point something out? You're actually producing a show that's going out over the internet right now. This is using a computer. He's actually using two computers. You just turned the camera towards your So you speak into the microphone that your whole that is going out to the internet. You do that's right. It's a little confusing. I guess that's fair.

5:26Is it your run spring? Pretty bad loss. Huh. Yeah, Florida. I'm with you. Florida State was a What why? I don't know. What is it about them that we want them to be so good? Is it the helmet? Such as the helmet. They had the right players in the 90s. This is the helmet and growing up with them being good. There's something. I'm chewing my peptobus malright. Give me give me 10 seconds. Vant for 10 seconds. We are Connor, why don't you do the station identification move that they do in radio? Oh, God. Yeah. Uh, we pause 10 seconds for station identification. Yeah. Yeah. We pause 10 seconds. I just said that. You do that. You do the station identification. Yeah. Okay. And uh, and after the bottom of the first it's zero zero. We pause 10 seconds for station identification. You're listening to mostly sports on the Barstool Sports Network.

6:27That's pretty good. Well, longer. You're listening to mostly sports on the Barstool Sports Network founded by Dave Portnoy with Mark Titus and Brandon Walker on 11 o'clock Eastern 12 a.m. I don't know what I'm saying. Just get you finish the fucking pet. Do you say we need to cut that? Drop that in. That would be a good idea for the bottom of the hour. I don't fucking know you. The overwhelmed station identification. We pause 10 seconds for saying you're listening to Tulsa's number one station for rock and fucking what else do we got? Do we do a country? We just do rock. Fuck. I don't know back to the game. I don't know. Uh, are you ready? I'm gonna ask you a question. Go ahead. You still chill with the pet. Yeah. Still what it? Was diarrhea on the rise in this country? Brandon, can I say something? Yeah. And this is a safe space, right? Like this is just the five guys. Yeah.

7:29It's room right now. No one else is listening. Yeah. I think it was the summer of diarrhea. I do too. I had something was wrong. Anyway, now football. I got a multiple choice question for you. Are you ready to answer the multiple choice question? I believe so. Who had the most embarrassing loss to start the college football season? Was it A, Rutgers? Was it B, Oklahoma State? Was it C, Clemson? Or was it D, the Michigan Wolverines? I think it's D, Michigan. I think it's Michigan. Michigan winning was the most embarrassing loss. Well, they didn't win. We saw the game and the game ended with them down 12 to 7. The game ended and the Big 10 magically found a second somewhere in the second ferry, somewhere in the stadium, but they did not win. I think them being given the win, though, is more embarrassing than had they lost, Brandon, because I think Michigan already has embarrassing home losses. There are already moments you can point to in the Big House and say, AppState. Yes, there's already the AppState. This would not have been...

8:32Toledo, maybe? This would not have been bigger than AppState. Sure. It would not have been. But having this moment where they found a magical second, we can all hold this over their head. They stormed the field, Brandon. They stormed the field. They stormed the field at the Big House. And I said this the other day, but I think long after this dies down, 20 years from now, I think we can forget that the second guy that I had to know, maybe we'll forget that Western Michigan actually had beaten, but I don't think we'll ever forget that those that student section and that crowd stormed the field after winning as 29 point favorites against a directional Michigan school. It's one of the most embarrassing moments I've ever seen for a supposed blue blood elite school to act like that. Now, tell me if you agree with this take. I noticed a couple years ago when they had the season long thing of all the will they coach, won't they coach, you know, will they get punished, won't they get punished and stuff like

9:33that. They ended up winning the national title. I felt like public opinion probably lean towards them being cheating assholes, but it was it was kind of split. There were a lot of people saying, you know what, sign stealing isn't that bad, but this time, if you're not a Michigan fan, it feels like 100% of the country is against this. It's because who the victim was, Brandon, the victim of the science, sign stealing in the eyes of the rest of America was Ohio State. And so Ohio State people were like, these, these cheating scumbags, they need to be punished and everyone was like, yeah, we hit listen, shut up. Shut your cry, baby. Yeah, you guys are cry babies. You're just as annoying as the Michigan people shut the fuck up. But now that it's Western Michigan Brandon, Western Michigan is the victim of the of the Michigan shenanigans. People are like, now hang on a second. And I got to say, as a buck guy, we were like, we've been trying to tell you for years about these people. And that's what's so satisfying to me is not that they, I, I actually, I woke up on Sunday and I thought them being handed the wind is so much better than them losing. Because like you said, 20 years from now, if you're trying to think of humiliating losses in the big house, I don't know that your mind would go straight to Western Michigan. It would still go to

10:36App State. Sure. But now the thing about Michigan fans, Brandon, and you know this, but a lot of people don't is that they don't just want to beat you on the football field. Far more important to them is that they are better people than you. And they want to go out into the world and hold this like like we do things differently. Michigan, we're Michigan men. We are, we are smarter than you. We are classier than you. And they have this attitude of this air of importance that when you storm the field against a Western mid an in state school that your 29 point favorites again, that goes away forever. Yeah. So I was delighted that that actually happened as discussed it as I was by what actually transpired. I woke up the next morning. I was like, this is actually funnier that now like Dave is going on. Wub spinning it is like, this is, this is great. Everybody's jealous of everything about it is perfect. I think I think it's the perfect outcome. Michigan is a dog shit football team. Bryce Underwood is unplayable. Kyle Woodenham. I feel bad for that guy. I love him. That's right. That's good. Man. Did you see him apologize to the coach? Oh, I feel so terrible for it because he he within one game you could see it in his face. He's

11:38like, I've made a huge mistake. Yeah. I was I was retired. I was on the boat. I was on the beach and like, you know, Florida or California, wherever he wants to vacation. He's like, this was going to be my life in the fall. I was just going to go to a beach somewhere. I was going to enjoy my life. Michigan came calling. I said to myself, you owe it to 12 year old. Do you because I grew up like, you know, having this reverence for Michigan. I got to go take that job. And within one week, he's like, fuck me. What have I done? Yes. Oh, what have I done? Him standing there and telling the other coach there was no time. And you could tell he just felt bad about being in the center of it and Bryce Underwood. It's time. It's time. I think we spent I spent the off season thinking of ways he could not be a bust. He's a bust. Yeah. That's that's not a quarterback that's going to leave Michigan to anything. And then Wittingham said as much as they when they said to see your quarterback and said, yeah, right now, refer now. Yeah. Right now. Yeah. I think you think because you're not high on Michigan, but you thought they would be something, right? I just thought you add a good coach to that. Then then you had a chance. We thought that a Wittingham would you thought that

12:43Michigan would would have the Michigan washed out of them by Kyle Wittingham. And instead Kyle Wittingham washed out of him by Michigan. Yes. That's what happened immediately. I think that's what happened. Yeah, he admits to the coach. There's no time in the in the post game. He was like, I don't know, I thought there was one second left. But more to the point, there's a third clock. Is this the precedent that we've unlocked now? Is that there are three clocks. So when I'm watching every college football game, the clock just doesn't know. No, no, Mark. There's one clock at every single little college football stadium in America, except for one. And Michigan, there's at least three clocks. Now, who's to know? Who's to say there's not four and five and six? There could be clocks everywhere just to try to figure out the big 10 immediately stepping up and saying, actually guys, we got it. There was a set. We run the clock. Michigan doesn't run the clock. Just shut the fuck up. Yeah, they got to my boy, fan to by the way. I don't know if you saw that. Yeah. Did they get to fan to fan to fan to fan? It was, yeah, fan to had to go on live television and look at the camera and just say some bullshit. I don't know. We lost. We lost fans. It's hard wasn't in it.

13:49You could tell, but you still had to say the bullshit. Listen, yeah. And these wars and these wars, you're going to lose people. The official time of the game is kept by the big 10. Our cameras are not the official arbiter of time keeping within the game. That is the big 10 and game officials responsibility after the game last night. The big 10 released a statement and raw video from its replay process that showed how and why the decision was made. Here's a look back at that video. And with the ball hitting the defensive back for Western Michigan, that gave Michigan another second. And one last play. That's fair. No, that's fair though. Marry it. You were like, it flipped the teams. If Western Michigan was at the 50 yard line through a hellmare through the end zone, actually the quarterback missed the entire end zone. Right because he can't throw. If if Western Michigan was in this situation and the exact same thing happened, they would definitely definitely found a second. Yeah. Or if Michigan would have caught the touchdown. And there was like

14:51maybe a half second left. They would have reviewed it and been like actually the game's not over. Yeah, we're going to give Western Michigan one more shot because there's one second left. So yeah, my understanding of the way the big 10 explains it is that there's the NBC clock when you're watching the broadcast and NBC has the has the graphic. There's that clock. Yeah, that's not official. Sure. Because there's the clock in the stadium. Right. That's the official clock. That's what that's what I've been for 40 years of watching football. That's my understanding is that that's the clock in the stadium that that the officials are looking at that the players are looking at that the fans are looking at that everybody in the world is looking at. That's the official clock. As it turns out, that's not the official. There is actually a clock. The third clock. In the truck on the grassy. No, there's the third clock. Um, why don't they all sing up? They were synced up. That's the thing is because Bryce Underwood rushes. They have the completion at midfield. They run up. They spiked the football and then the ref goes, Hey, everybody, sync up your clocks. There should be nine seconds left. Right. That happened. So he said,

15:54sync them all up. All the clocks that are out there. Everybody pull out your wristwatch. Yeah. Sing it up. Put it to nine seconds. All right. Here we go. Playball. And then within those nine seconds, we had three different clocks. Mm-hmm. It's incredible. Is this absolutely incredible? Is this number one clock one second left event in college football? Because obviously we have Texas, well, Texas Nebraska. I mean, kicks it. Arizona State. Six six. I still think the kicks six because they've been asked for the second. Yeah. And then, uh, biting him because he got the second to try the field goal and the field goal ends up. So I think it's still the kicks six. Oklahoma State kind of got robbed of a game against central Michigan about 15 years ago. Well, somebody last year, right? Arizona State, right? Yeah. Was it BYU? Yeah. Where they put a second back on the clock. Do you think the state rushed on the field and they had to get him off the field? You think in the Big 10 head quarters in Chicago, there's like this, um, there's this employee that maybe has a frumpled tie and I like rolled up sleeves and he's like, you know, the control room at Apollo 13 where they're all just like

16:58I'm about to stick around and put them out. It's constant shreds. And he's like, uh, he's about to go home for Saturday night and then and then somebody presses the Michigan button. He's like, God, fuck. I kind of figured this out for Michigan. All right. His Michigan again, guys. Gotta do it. The game is over. Give him a second. They need a second, but how are we going to explain it to the public? It's like, Oh my God. A third clock. It's not like we could tell him there's a third clock. Oh my God. What if we just say there's a third clock? Because then if it happens again, we'll just say there's a fourth house. I got plenty of clocks back here. There's the fifth clock. Yeah. The Big 10, what a Friday Saturday Sunday was, uh, was not a great run for the Big 10. There's the there's the Rutgers TJ. I don't know if you're aware of this. Rutgers lost to UMass on on Thursday. But that was Thursday. Actually, that was actually Thursday. A first game of Thursday Friday. Say the the Rutgers lost to UMass on Thursday. Um, there's the Michigan clock fiasco. And then this is this is not the most important topic, Brandon. Maybe we'll talk about at the end of the show, but there there's a volleyball situation at a rugby field that the Big

18:0210 had to had to address. Did you go Connor? Yeah, I was there. And I saw that whole situation on the whole. It was a mess. Absolutely. It was just that nobody thought that maybe an early September that there would be humidity or be right by the lake. Yeah. And yeah. Um, it's not a good run for the conference. Less few days. But uh, yeah, congrats to Michigan on, find a way to beat West to miss a B. West or Michigan. Price in all stairs is priced underwood is bad. You think he's a bus. I don't, I don't think when Michigan plays Ohio State, he'll be the starting quarterback. No, no, I don't think I think he'll be the sacrificial lamb this weekend. And then that'll be it. Um, I don't, uh, I don't understand how you come into an off season and just get no better as a sophomore. Cause last year he had the built in his excuse. He had the built in the excuse of no coaching, bad game plan, everything. He has a whole off season, but I just don't think, I don't know if it's this processing. I don't know if it's his, his body plays faster than his, I don't

19:07know. I don't know where it is in there, but it ain't there. It's not there at all. And meanwhile, they, they bought price underwood for $12 million from LSU a couple years ago. He was coming to LSU. And now LSU is rolling with Sam Levitt. Okay. Was that, is that is LSU the story you think coming up again? I think if we're, if we're doing bottom, if we're doing bottom end stories, it's Michigan. If we're doing top end stories, it's probably LSU. Yeah. LSU was just so goddamn impressive. Um, and I know, I hate when you go on the internet and say, wow, this team looks good. Oh, it's just Clemson. Yeah. Yeah. Clemsons got their own things. Clemsons got problems and Clemsons got issues and they're not anywhere near what they were. Let's put them aside for a second. Just visually, the size and the speed of LSU's defense, the size and the speed of LSU's offense, the, the, the, the, the, the decisiveness and the ability to run from Sam Levitt, the running back, like, like, just, you don't have to know a lot about football to be able to watch those dudes on that defense side of the ball for LSU and say, oh, this is a real problem. This is a real issue.

20:09This is, this is going to be something. Now, Clemson is going backwards faster than anybody in the sport. They are absolutely ill equipped to compete in this day and age of college football. And LSU is the opposite. Now, Lane Kiffin is probably the number one transfer portal guy against the worst transfer portal guy. So this was always going to be, uh, kind of a, uh, crossroads moment for Clemson. But I think it was more about LSU being great than Clemson being awful. Yeah. Because I mean, I mean, this kind of was this last year we did this with Clemson where they're, like, they're, they're total dog shit. And then they kind of put it together a little. Yeah, it was two years. I'm thinking of two years. Yeah. And they came back to the ACC. We buried Davos so many times. I can't remember. Last year they lost the LSU. They came back in one that ACC last year. They were just bad. Last year they lost the LSU to start. And we're like, oh, let's see. And then I think Syracuse walked in there and beat them and the Georgia Tech walked in there. I was thinking of two years ago. Yeah. I was thinking of the team two years ago. Um, what about the Sam Levitt protocol? What do you make of that? Oh, yeah. The, basically the Mark Wahlberg wake up. Oh, brush teeth. Eat. Yeah. Did you see the Lane Kiffin halftime speech? I did. Yeah.

21:13So Lane Kiffin planted this, right? Lane Kiffin. Oh, yeah. Everything Lane Kiffin does is it's absolutely planned. And, and part of his marketing schemes and everything. Now you can find the Lane Kiffin halftime speech. The halftime speech that was recorded and just accidentally recorded. Yeah, accidentally recorded accidentally. Players aren't even there right now. Yeah. Is it the bathroom? That's what's supposed to happen. They don't fucking celebrate this for that. They're fucking strong. They work different. We're fucking different. So you gotta show them again. They're gonna come out. Doesn't matter what plays they run. Doesn't matter what they do on a hobby. Get in the center. Put the next motherfucker quarterback in. I don't give a fuck. You send him a fucking message. Who the fuck is under schedule? They have to play you. It sounds childlike. A little bit. That's how I was gonna say it. Yeah.

22:16It sounds. I like the emotion. I like the words he's saying, but like, he's regressing in age. Sounds like he's pretending with all his army men and his he man figures and everything around him. Okay, that's a fuck. Great coach. You're speaking to a future US Army soldier right now. Yeah. It's a phenomenal coach. They're gonna I think I had seven teams as the national title elite tier Ohio State Indiana, Oregon, Texas Georgia, Notre Dame, Miami. I think LSU forced their way into that. Now it's eight. Yeah. Yeah. That's that's how good I think they were. Yeah. Seems fair. Yeah. Um, I got a question for you. Yes. This is the same level of protocol that stood out to me. I've ever done some things that stood out to me about the weekend. Um, I have a broad question. Uh, what about women? Heisman poses in week one. I think I love it. I think I adore Malikitoni hit it three times.

23:19What's the rule that says you have to wait till November? Yeah. Heisman pose. Why not? Every touchdown count. So Finn that you now have to win the Heisman. If you're doing the Heisman poses in week one Malikitoni's on pace to shatter the Heisman pose record. Yes. We've never seen anything like it. He might already have never seen anything like this. What is the three high three Heisman poses in week one is crazy. And to be honest, Mark, it was kind of valid that he did it. He was yeah. So much better than every player on the field. No, he was awesome. There's no question. I just, uh, this is, uh, we're he's on pace for 51 Heisman. I, you have me thinking now, what is the success rate of Heisman poses or poses? Like are you? Has everyone that has done it in Heisman pose won the Heisman? No, I'm a certain. I, who has done the Heisman pose in law? My understanding of the Heisman pose is it's the, it's, it's the, the exclamation point on your case. It's like you're already the favorite. You're playing in this big game and, and late October, early November, something like

24:22that. Lock it up, bitches. Yes. It's over. I'm here to announce it's over. Where's the Texas tech dude? All that was Texas tech last year. Like he played every position. Oh, Jacob Rodriguez. You know, do it. He might have. They were campaigning. I say everybody should do it. I, I, our guy did it. It's very funny. Do you see that really? Tomorrow Taylor is for, uh, to go up 21, nothing. I guess you Elman row. He ran, he ran it in from like 20 yards out and, and, and hit it. I'd be very funny. So when you started like, shoo aiming you just a little lower and doing like the bulletnikov pose. What is the bulletnikov trophy look like? Think it's like this? Yeah, I would be very interested in following. Oh, Diego Pavia there, there we go. I would be very interested in following an account that tracks all the Heisman poses throughout a college for policy. That's such a good. That's a blood. That's a blood. That's a blood. That's a blood. Bloodman account, right? That's a bloodman in his head. Heisman pose. Oh, that's, that's fantastic. Every time someone hits the Heisman, I want to see it. Every single time. You're guy did it. Yeah, he did. Yeah. No. That's what I knew we had. We might have an epidemic here.

25:26Scataboo. But I think he did it. I think Malik I Tony set the tone. I think you're watching that. If you're a guy who believes you could win the Heisman and you're watching Malik I Tony have 200. What was it? 40, 34, 30, an insane game. And it was just Stanford. Sure. But at the same time, like when we tally up all these stats at the end of the year, no one's going to remember that a lot of it was against Stanford. The three touch. You're just going to see how many touchdowns and how many yards. So you're watching that. And you see him hit the pose three times. I think you got to be like, Hey, man, I got a bust one out myself. I got to remind the people that I'm in the mix too. I think Miami was the second most impressive team of the weekend. I know. I don't think Stanford is going to be. You mass level. I think Stanford's going to be just a commonly bad power four team. And they just absolutely wrecked. I mean, just wrecked them from start to finish. I mean, what didn't it wasn't even close. And I do worry if we're talking to actual Heisman. Malik I Tony is going to be going to be very good all year. But the schedule doesn't give him that many opportunities. And Menta has quarterback is going to be racking up yards right along the way. Yeah. And like the

26:31ACC championship game, Menta throws 400 yards three touchdowns. He might he might snag behind. I feel the way about Jeremiah Smith and saying, yeah, Jeremiah Smith is a better player for sure. But what I like about Jeremiah Smith's case. It's, you know, sayings going to be throwing that thing all over the place. So if Jeremiah Smith's having a big year of sayings, surely going to be a Heisman kid or as well. What I like about Jeremiah Smith's case is my amus problem is they're not going to be in the big games. I got one road game at Notre Dame. Jeremiah Smith's going to be in big games all year. If he goes down to Texas this week and has 12 catches for two, two, 15 and three touchdowns, he's like the leader. And then they'll play Indiana on the road later. They'll play Oregon at home. There could be there could be situations, I guess, where Ohio States because we saw this last year at the end of the year. Like their offense is dog shit and like it stalls and saying they're getting pressure to say and all that sort of thing. Jeremiah Smith has to bail them out. And they're like a couple of like big plays where saying just kind of throws it down there. And Jeremiah Smith makes remarkable plays. I guess that's the advantage they'll have is the highlights. Yeah. If he makes it, it's highlights would be yeah.

27:34But it's like the broadcast highlights. Like I think where Malachi Tony looks so otherworldly and more important to the offense on Friday night was when you like he stores a touchdown whatever they're celebrating. They go to the replay and they show you just like the isolated shot of him. And he he shook like three guys to get open. He's 50 yards wide open. I think those are the types of things. Yeah. That'll be like feathers in the hat to the wide receivers being like I was wide open on every play. Like that makes you more of a true Heisman contender. Right. Right. Have you all seen our spanning fall? No. Like just in general. Just like he coming out of the tunnel. Oh yeah. Through the smoke. It's one of the weirder more. Oh, there was an incident that he yeah. I didn't see that. It's one of the it's one of the it looked like he fell through a trap door. It was it was it was it was it was like an all at once fall. It was there was no lead up to watch watch. Where where is he? Yeah. It's just straight down. It looked like he

28:36was a stuntman. That's coming out to to open the season. Hey, Connor. Two free throws for SGA. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Mark. All right. There was also another one where where somebody was like a they were trying to break down a brick wall and with sledgehammers and the edge of sledgehammer came off and hit somebody else in the foot. Well, you got a lot of we got a lot of problems. It was week one for a lot of these celebrations. You see the LSU guys got to pick six. When I were a dunk the basketball and Mr. Dunk. Yeah. Yeah. That's that's that's tough. How about Wildcat Willie? Do you see Wildcat Willie? Poor Wildcat Willie. I saw Wildcat Willie. This was a Easter Michigan. Yeah. I thought I didn't hear him. It's been so long. It's not a very big wall. Easter Michigan has done this for like a fuck ton of games. They don't even run through the wall by the way. They hit it. They run around which they could have just done from the start. They could have just did I do the wall is like that wall is in our way. We're going to bust it down and then go this way.

29:36Yeah. Or when really it was like around it. It's gone around it all the time. It's not a good visual. It's not fun I guess. And it's dangerous. You know what they should. How long with tradition? Is it like eight years old? Yeah. Somebody just just run through the paper like high school. Paper. Yeah. Just get the cheerleaders out there holding up the badly drawn cartoon of your opponent. Can I say something I'm not proud of? I've I've I'm of the age. I'm of the age where I find myself just being a hater of all this sort of thing. I find in across all sports. I find like the we have the the guest celebrity who's going to crank the horn ladies and gentlemen put your hands together for Will forte. The will forte comes out and he's like a fucking women soccer game. Yeah. And he's like cranking the fucking horn. Just say you know my blood. Yeah. Yeah. Blood. Yeah. Blood. Blood. I have to be a universal hater of all this. I don't know. That's just kind of where I've I'm

30:38picturing like the Columbus crew have like a fake brick wall where like they get like a local celebrity to like bust through the fake brick wall to then like shoot the cannon to get the fans. I don't know, man. I think I think it's oversaturated. I think that's the problem. I think like a handful of programs and franchises did it right and then other copycats came along and now it's just kind of everywhere and there's too many layman's instances of it. It's ridiculous. I do want to I do want to sound the horn at the black house game. It's ridiculous. What's the what's the black house? This is the crane. It's a horn. It's the push the road. Pull the rope. Yeah. Pull the rope. Yeah. Pull the rope. And that's what I want to do. But it's all you're gonna pull the rope. I pull the rope. And also I I've been to 30 games and I can't quite tell if that's if that rope's actually doing anything. Sometimes they'll pull it and there's a second delay and then go the horn goes or sometimes the horn starts and he pulls the rope. Yeah. So this is the yeah. No sound. That's kind of the fucking point. There it goes. Yeah. Pull the rope. Yeah. I kind of want to pull the rope. Speaking of shenanigans. Yes, please.

31:40Like this. I have I have a report from Bloomington, Indiana. I have one report from Bloomington, Indiana. So I mean you have a report from Bloomington, Indiana. Okay. There's nothing to do with you. Okay. All right. All right. Thank you. Because that was really like to be eating that much ice cream. Three generations of tightest boys went to the Indiana North Texas game. My father, my brother, my brother sons, they all they all went. You know, was it hot? Of them surface fucking son is hot as fuck. So they all had a great time. I'm kind of the black sheep in the family. I didn't go to IU. I went to a house they saw I saw that they were all enjoying the national championship celebration. Indiana's playing their first game, all that sort of thing. So later in the day, when I knew that the family had made their way back home, I gave him a call and I was like, how was it? How you can tell me everything? You know, I'm sure this was a to see week one Memorial Stadium packed. Yeah. You know, in Tows flying, people are losing their mind. I I still as I was watching at home, I still cannot get used to Indiana being a national champ. It's weird. Like even you guys doing your show and the big

32:42noon is going on and they're like the national champions are about and I'm like, why? We're talking about the national champions, but they're in Bloomington. I think that's an oh, that's right. Holy shit. Indiana one last year. Anyway, I call my brother and I was like, tell me how it was. The first thing out of his mouth, Brandon. The first thing is he's like, it's crazy. How much one guy can turn around to program? And I was like, yeah, it is. He's like, because I when I was in school this that the other and he's like, and now to see a packed week one. And I was like, yeah, dignity's awesome. He's like, I'm not talking about dignity. I'm talking about the bison. And he said Indiana football since they have introduced the bison. 16 to no, yeah. undefeated. And he was like, this motherfucker bison ziplines in from the top of the scoreboard to start at the start of the game. He comes out in an indie car or something to lead the team out. He said, my kids were losing their mind. He's lying into the stadium. I don't know. That's what my brother said. I didn't I didn't see it. Okay. But he was just like, there was ziplines involved. There were like, he's driving cars. He said there was a hot. It was really fun. It was a sweet

33:42moment because I'm facetime and him and he goes at one point he pulls out the hot dog canner. He's shooting hot dogs into the crowd. And then my nephew who's like five was like, there were hot thought he like pops into the frame. He's like, where's the hot dog can it? But this yeah, here he goes. Zip lining in just okay. So, so this was the scene in Bloomington. You're defending national champions. Right. They have not lost the football game since they reintroduce the bison as the mascot. Mark, what if I told you what if I told you that was, I guess, at 12 when we started big noon kickoff, he ziplined into that too. Just a zipline. He's a zipline twice and then like the space of an hour. He's applying both directions because he was staying on that scoreboard and zipline down into the tailgate. And he's ziplined in the game. Good for him. He's a zipline in full. Yeah. I've been watching as a sweet car. He also drove an Indie car. He's driving an Indie car. He's I've been watching. He's doing it all. He's doing the most college sports for my whole life. My whole life. I fancy myself a ball. No, I was like I was a Saturday years old when

34:44I found out about the fucking bison. Yeah. I remember seeing him last year, but I I guess I never I never knew that he was gone. Okay. Last year he returned. Right. Yeah. For the first time since a long time. Like for most of my life, Indiana. Why a bison? Yeah. I have here. Yeah. Yeah. For I don't ever remember I remember like like they have like a bison stuff around campus or like they'll have like some throwback stuff with the bus. So I knew the bison was like kind of a thing of Indian allore, but it was never there's never been a mascot. As far as I've been alive. I saw this year oldest man in my life on Saturday. I'm I'm on the left side. So if I turn I can see all the people that aren't in the crowd. They're just kind of looking at the crowd. I turn to the left and there's a man shirtless. So spenders. Candy strike pants. Bison head. Conservatively, I think he was 95 years old. He was 95 years old. He walked with a limp, but he was there in his bison head. So shout out to that man. That man got to see an Indiana national

35:48championship good for him. He's probably a fucking douchebag. But whatever. Oh, you're your first time in Bloomington? No. Oh, no. No. Not second or third either. That was probably fourth. Oh, jeez. It was. We went in 2022. Maybe 2021. We went we had the worst bar store cost we'll show in the history of the show since I've been on it. We went to Bloomington. We did not get a good place on campus. We were at least a mile from the stadium. We were in the parking lot of a bowling alley. Okay. It was early November. It was cold. They were playing Ohio State that day. They expected and were right to get beat by 40. No. I want to say 75 people came. It was just it was the saddest little crowd we've ever had in a bowling alley. Before the show, me and Dan went and bowl two games. And that's how quiet Indiana was. And then it's gradually the next year started. Okay. All right. I think we've been four times now. And

36:49Saturday was just nuts. It's not going to happen. I don't want it to happen. But objectively, it would be very funny if Indiana just went back to this. Went straight to it. Went straight back to it. And like in 15, 20 years, you're just like, did it? Am I crazy? Did Indiana win a national championship that one year? Am I hallucinating? They, they've already got their iconic image. In the first quarter of the first game, they got Josh Hoover with a bloodied face. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Um, how was Ben State Connor? That's fucking awesome. It was you feel better or worse about your team going in better, right? Far better. You guys pretty much handle business. Yeah. We were at 17, nothing in the first 10 minutes. And it had been so long since we had played like a scrub in the non-com where we just flat out were so much better. And you knew we could just coast like last year. I've been playing a lot of scrubs with Ron Conn. Well, it's because of James Franklin. He always wanted it that way. But even last year against FI Univada and Villanova, it took us deep into the fourth quarter to be able to bury those teams. We buried Marshall in the first 10 minutes.

37:49And it was great. And it was just a ease. Oh, Eva. Don't care for me. Oh, nobody just move on. Easy carefree. I've got to move on. But day in the state. It was great. And then you guys won 73-3. How did you say that fucking word? You said like fucking Michael Burry, dude. How do you fucking say it? How many words? Get your own words, dude. We buried them. I'm sorry. That is how it's spelled. I be restating him. Awesome. By the way, the view from at the very top of the field is one of the coolest views I've ever seen. They got a new one. Yeah, we're in section 409. I was not. Oh, 408. What did you have a good view of that? Section 409. It was up there. Anything special about that section? Yeah, it's in blue. And the other sections are in white. So there's significance to that. There is. I was up there. I wanted to explain the significance that you guys know the significance. Well, the audience does it. No matter when is the Joe Patrano has at Penn State. Was that their last year? No, because there was a night they had to add it. It takes some away.

38:54Did they take some away or at all? They were vacating and then they were giving back. But they were they added the renovation to the stadium. They they added more seats for now. They're going to do the east side next year. It's a massive. It's so high up. It's crazy. How many how many seats did you add? As of right now, I think we technically have more than Michigan. But it's going to be that looks terrifying. It's awesome, dude. It's so steep. That's on the surface of the sun. Where where? It's not that bad of a view. Yeah, that's the thing. The higher you go in sports state is football just you just you feel like you're on top of it. Yeah, but the view is good. It's just you're far enough there that like you hear the whistle after the play. Like the whistles. The whistle. You hear the whistle after they're already like back in the huddle. I could hear the security guard down on the field though. Yolanda me and saying, hey, get out of there. You got to leave. And then I left. He kicked me out of the stadium. I felt like a pussy. Oh, it was all the way. There it is. How? Did you did you check him with G fed by the way

40:00before you did that? No, I should have I should have asked him for tips. Because I mean, I've done that before though when I was there, be a stadium a couple years ago. I stayed like well after the game. Like an hour and a half to hours after the game because you actually get really good reception from the stadium once everybody's left. And so I post all my videos and I tweet and everything. Good reception. So yeah, I couldn't stay a whole long. Congrats to Penn State. 73.3. Well, yeah, over. Yeah. James Franklin beating a VMI. Oh, James Franklin one by 70. Oh, okay. Yeah. Well, that's interesting. 66. Well, see exactly what what happens with Virginia Tech this year. I have no ill will. There were there was some weird stuff being said by Ricky Ronnie, poor decisions, white whale about James Franklin's time at Penn State that I thought was interesting, but we don't have to get into that here. I had a great time to answer your question Brandon. It was fantastic. Whether it was perfect. You get the hoodie. Yeah, the hoodie jersey. I saw your tweet about no, I was a fucking idiot. These are awesome. I love these people. What do

41:03you guys think about these people have been shitting on these? I think they're great. Those aren't jerseys. This is a young man's game. They're a chosen jersey hoodie. That's not a jersey. I've seen a few tweets on on both sides of the argument for and against these. If you're a cold weather, you're going to do it anyway, right? You're going to throw a jersey over a hoodie anyway. But does it feel like you're wearing an extra layer? That's kind of the significance of doing is that it feels like an extra layer style choice. Yeah. I don't hate it, I guess. I don't hate it because sometimes you'll wear like the especially if you're wearing like the white jersey like your blue hoodie will have like a graphic on it and then you throw the white jersey over top. And now the graphics bleeding through the jersey and you look like a doofusk because it says like the the turkey trot you did in your local town or something like that. That logo is like shining through the coming through the jersey. So yeah, just I don't know. I don't think I hate it. I think I'm pro that. I don't think we needed it. But I think that it exists. I'm like, yeah, I can see why that exists. I just think Nike has gotten a little bit complacent and it

42:06focuses on what the data says is really changing the game. You think that right as a right as Penn's data. Another dude, they're doing a great job. You guys have just plain white uniforms. What was Nike or the data supposed to do with that? The other merch has been great. I'm talking about the quality of the merch, not necessarily the jerseys in the uniforms, but the merch. So do you think do you think Penn State just trying to erase all the history of the Joe Patrano and Jerry Sandusky and all that with this new regime? Do you think that's coming from the top at Penn State? Or do you think there's a Matt Campbell decision? What do you mean? Like, like, obviously, James Franklin was like, I keep that over there. Like we're gonna do this. We're gonna keep that over there. And since Matt Campbell's been hired, you got the Patrano fucking all inclusive. What is interactive? That's what I was looking for. Interactive experience. You got the section 409. These things are being rolled out as if to say enough times pass. Let's bring it back in. Do you think that's a Matt Campbell decision or do you think this is the school deciding? I think it's not necessarily Matt. It's a mixture for sure. Terry Smith started

43:13to bring it back last year. Like Terry Smith was wearing the 4049 pin when he was an earnedmate coach and everything. And I think there's a large part of the fandom and the fan base that was never a fan of how James Franklin. It wasn't just that James Franklin was trying to distance himself from Patrano. He was just trying to really distance himself seemingly from all the lettermen and the alums used to play there. They never felt like they were friendly and in good terms with James Franklin. And they're trying to get the people back on board. Is there a team we've missed here that we need to talk about at all? Org and Boise, I don't... Here's the thing. There were two matchups that really stood out above the rest. Org and Boise and an Ole Miss Louisville. And I don't think Org and they were my preseason national champs are my number one team. Boise made a bleed in the first half. Boise is good. Boise is a very good team. Knows what they're doing. There's no fear of Org and from Boise State. This is a program that is beaten them before. Lost by three a couple of years ago and a year were Org and which 12 and

44:14O's. So Org and Thel behind ended up coming back. Dante Moore was way better than the second half. The receivers were way too much. The talent was way too much. So I don't think them at all. Now I look at it. Louisville Ole Miss. Ole Miss just the higher ranked team. I got a ding-man. That was just not that impressive performance. They gave up yards and yards and yards. The yards of defense looked terrible. They ended up getting a field goal to win it. They could have very easily lost that game. So you got to be better than that no matter who you're playing in week one. You got to ding them. You got to ding them. You have to ding them. I don't listen. I don't want to be the dinger here. But I'll dinger them. So that's... And I'm dingin' them right now because that was just a garbage performance by that defense. And Pete Golding is supposed to be a defensive guy. You know, six and six at best. Six and six at best. Lincoln. Or seven and five. Probably eight and four or three times. They won the lower Bill Connolly does his post game with expectancy based off the multitude of stats and team performance. I think they had the third lowest post game with expectancy of any team that won. Florida State... That's the new you had to be the worst, right? No. Florida State, I believe,

45:18their post game is because it assumes things like the turnovers and fumble luck is kind of luck. It evaluates mostly like your per play efficiency. Florida State's post game win expectancy was only 1.4% they almost lost. They lost about three. Keenholds has sneaky most fun watch potential. Yeah. I say that. He's not going to win the highest. He's not going to win any awards. He's I don't know how good he actually is. Yeah. But he got sneaky like like if you catch yourself in a window of football and there's not really any there aren't really any good games on. Yeah. Maybe just throw the Louisville game on and see if he's going to do some crazy shit. Which is crazy because Chambers is the most watch guy, right? Yeah. Yeah. As far as quarterbacks, I think he's the must watch. But if he has a bad game, they're going to be they're going to be fucked. I got to be thinking Lane Kiffin is licking his chop for getting a hold of that defense. The way he's got Sam Levit running the football and everything. But you know what? Week one is week one. We'll see. I'm trying to think of what else in them. I had yellow shirt at Navy was cool. I like that. That was a cool thing that they did. The kid was

46:23run this way. I don't know. But that I wrote that down. But that was a nice little was a nod to the to the to the guy's in the Navy. You know what I mean? Connor. That's what that was. And then I have a confession. I think I might have Bob Chasney fever. Yeah. I think I might have started to spread one. I think. Huh? Which one? Which fever? Which Bob Chasney? Is it senior or junior? Oh, are you not aware of Bob Chasney senior? I guess I didn't. I don't know. He's the fucking man. He's so what he's just a retired coach. And he's obviously Bob Chasney's dad. And he just shows up to practice and just like walks around. Chats everybody up is like best friend. But also he's like just really I think we're talking about the one that coaches. Yeah. Bob Chasney senior. Jim. So now hold on because like a mcronin's dad was was that way? I don't know if he still I guess he's getting older. Maybe he's sown down a bit. But like hep Cronin was the way it's around. Yeah. It's like a UCLA thing. Maybe higher. The guy who's got the dad that just Jim or a genius. Yeah. Just part of the. Yeah. I mean Bob Chasney junior obviously successful on his own own merits and

47:28has made his way through college football. But his dad is a big part of. Yeah. He's the man. Oh, yeah. That's Ches. Um, so I was watching I was watching UCLA cow. I lasted somewhere in the third quarter. And then I was like I'm tired. It's week one for me. It's week one for my body. I got to read just the body clock. I've been going to bed too early throughout the summer. But uh, it got to be a little late. But I it I was watching UCLA and I found myself just lying to myself. I guess that like every time Nico would complete a pass, I was like he looks different. Yeah. He looks like he didn't even have a good game. But I was just like man, Bob Chasney's unlocking something with Nico Yamaliyava. Uh, we got because I didn't start watching the game until you stopped. Oh really? We got done with their recap show at like 12 and it was 24 24 when I watched and um, UCLA just dominated them. And yeah, I'm Nico got hurt. I'm just gonna say Nico. Nico got hurt. They got better. Yeah. Not that they not that the quarterback came in and did better. They just started handing the ball off here playing just dominating. Uh, they got like three running backs.

48:28Like they look like a legit football team. UCLA does so so shout that guy's a coach man. That guy's a football coach and he's like, he's got a lot of people in media just absolutely falling over him. That's why I made my confession because I've been media and I would like to admit that I am I am finding myself on because there's no world where UCLA cowl. What time is that kickoff? 9 o'clock. Yeah. There's no world where I'm like staying up to watch that. Yeah. And I stay I lasted as long as I could. I think I lasted like 11 something. I was like, I don't do I really care about the outcome of this game? No, but I can't like I can't look away. Very quickly. Good looking looking forward. No, we got to do some ads. But um, Ohio State Texas in week two. I know off the deep end. I don't know what to make of it, Brandon. I don't know what to make. I think it's different than last. Well, maybe not different. I'm like confident until I'm giving a reason not to be confident. I'm not going to be I'm not going to say we're going to win, but also it's like I I'm not scared, but who the hell knows what's going to happen? Last year, both Ohio State and Texas had the schedule to absorb the loss. Like Texas ended up losing to Florida. They missed the

49:30playoff, but they lost, missed the playoff because they lost Florida. They had a schedule. They should have been fine and should have made the playoff, but it was, it was their fault that they didn't, but this year. Yeah. If Ohio State loses this game, that fucking schedule. Yeah. You got at Indiana at USC or going home like that's fucking nasty. If Texas loses the game, they got at LSU. They got at, uh, and they got, they got all kinds of road. Uh, Mississippi State at home. Yeah. They've got terrible games. This is, it was a huge game last year. It's bigger this year. You think so? I think I truly think it is because, uh, I think there's going to be more competition for those 12 spots in Texas, you know, didn't, didn't end up in that 12 last year, but like, if Ohio State loses this, they can go nine and three. We kind of have Texas as number, but also, yeah, that's why I just go back and forth. I'm like, we kind of, every time we put up Texas in a big game, it seems like we beat them with the exception of Vince Young in the shoe, like 20 years ago. But it's on the road. But then at the same time, eventually they're going to, they're going to win one of these games. Yeah. Eventually Texas is going to beat us. So yeah, I don't know. I don't know.

50:30I don't know what to tell you. Coin flip. And, and, and then of course you got Michigan, Oklahoma, which begs the question, well, Michigan score a point. Yeah. Cause, um, it's one thing to not be able to score against Western Michigan. Then you're going to play the best defense in the country, which means they'll probably win by three touchdowns.

Let's talk a little baseball. Let's. I'm going to need you because when Coswell Ball starts I fucking forget baseball exists for at least a couple of weeks so you're going to guide me through it but I do want to start with umpire dug-eddings. Is this one of the most power-hungry look at me? I'm out of touch things you've ever seen in the sports world. I'm sure you saw it Mark. Yes. Friday night the Cardinals are playing the Rockies I believe.

53:39The relief pitcher is in for the Cardinals. Doug Eddings is the home play-dumpire. He looks out and says hey hey hey hey straighten your hat young man not on my field not on my watch. Uh-huh. Not going to happen. And then it kind of completely derails the game then he gives him a pitch clock violation and then he's just he's talking to the St. Louis Bench and he's puffing his chest out and saying not not what the fuck Mark what the fuck Brandon. It's even got a video on it. It was his MLB debut by the way. It was his players MLB debut. The catchers laughing at him. Uh-huh. Ridiculous. All right what the fuck. And ring cone could very well be a pitch clock Violet. Oh what an asshole. The freezer right right behind that. The way taps his wrist fuck you. And yeah. I'm dying. And that is time.

54:41Violation here. It might be Slinsky and now Eddings with his nose in the Cardinals dug out. And Ollie's gone. What an asshole. And then he blew a call at home. Shortly thereafter. Things gone right since. There's just a call he blows at home I assume. How did he blow that? And they didn't have any challenges. I don't know. The ball was. Are you sure? Hold on. That's not even close. He's just crying. How do you miss that for where you're sitting? That's like that. That's like take a week off, Doug. Can we get an alternate angle of the how crooked the hat was? Yeah because we're looking from the side. We need one straight down the line. He's wrong no matter what. I'm not I'm not arguing like a world where he's right. I just I'm just curious how like Pedro Stroke would have been drawn in quarter by this. You would have fucking just executed him on the field. Could you just

55:44gradually tilt your head a little bit to see when it pisses me off? I'm fine. I'm good. That's fine. All right. Just okay. That's a little. No, just a little more. I fuck you, dude. Clean it up. Hey, hey, what the fuck? Beat his ass, Brian. Beat his ass. Cardinals the next day in the dugout was a nice touch. Oh, yeah. They were all wearing their hats crooked in the dugout. When you're when you're on the umpire and crew, like you're the third-based umpire or the second-based umpire and the home playing umpire does that. But you still have to like pack him up. Yeah, you gotta feel. Yeah, that's tough. Or you play good cop you come in and say listen man, it does look rules. It's his field. It's his field. He's in charge. Hey, I'll get you tomorrow. How about that? I'll be behind the

56:45plate tomorrow. It's I'll take care of you, but it's not me. It's not me. That was ridiculous. Now baseball uh, Ebo. What are the stories from the weekend other than the fact that after that incredible catch by the Orioles last week to the secure game, they immediately just lost every game they've ever played again. And Brandon, you know what the worst part is? What? We play the two teams in front of us this week if we sweep them we're back. We were four we were in a perfect position and then just shut down our leg, lost six in a row. But but we sweep the Guardian. All you have to do is win every game. If we sweep the Guardians, we already won yesterday. We win today and tomorrow. It's like now you cut you cut that because all the games work double now. These are work too. What's the last date in September where you can say if we win every game from here on out, we're good. 20 something like September 25th you'll finally be like, okay, even if we win every game. What now are we out of this one out? If we're if it's yeah last week the season we're within like

57:46one or two games, I'm gonna just be so pissed off. Yeah, because I shouldn't I shouldn't be caring. How about a Adley Rutchman hitting two home runs? Yeah. And that game when he came back to Baltimore. Crazy. That was probably fun for you. Yeah, I was fun. Enjoy that. Your big Adley Rutchman. Yeah. I like the guy. I'm a big fan of the guy. He came in the office. Very nice to. He's been on the show right now. He's the only one we didn't have in the show. You knew that. We'll have we'll have wow right. Oh, maybe even a little early. Bloody. What man? Are you here to talk an LSU? Contradict the egregious charges levied against you by Mark by Mark Titus. Oh no, where are those charges? I forgot what you say. What do you say? Something about? You said it's 10.59. Oh, yeah, I said I'm over the I'm over the the the the the the the crank. I'm over the crank. Not not the crank in particular. I'm over all of it across. Pregame hysteria. The pregame like the pregame. Everybody has like not even the hoop lots.

58:48Like the one object that doesn't really fully make sense. But this is what we do here. And so we're going to we're going to have the celebrity guests come like knock down the wall or crank the whole the whole the whole the string. Crank. Crank because they did nuclear testing in the 50s or whatever. So there's clear. Quarrelation. Yeah. Yeah. So that makes that one makes sense. Well, about the Easter. I did say I did say there are a lot of franchises and a lot of programs that do it right. And then the copycats are come along and ruin it for me. So maybe maybe that maybe I think the nights are you know someone that does it right. Yeah, we were talking about it because Easter Michigan. That was they were watching. Yeah, I was like, we don't we don't we don't need this. We don't need to see. We get it. You guys are tough. We don't need you to knock down. Do you do you know what they're what they're coachwear sometimes? Or is that the military guy? No, he wears that that's the Austin P. Vassal. Okay. The Chris Creighton will wear like a work shirt like a labor shirt and it'll just have like

59:50CC on the patch there and all his guys wear it. He didn't do it week zero. But he did week one. Actually don't mind that. All right. That's kind of funny. I'm trying to find a picture of it. It's great. Bloodman early barge from you. What do you have to say today? Well, it was to say there was they put a minute back on the clock and so that was second. But oh, because he was. He was really. That shouldn't you be late? I added. No, they added a second to the clock. So he thought it was 11 when I was really 1059 59. Is that yeah? Thanks guys. Also happy birthday to Rahim Morris. Happy birthday. Oh, yeah. We have your birthday. What do you mean? Oh, he's yeah. We missed his birthday. Everybody misses birthday. He missed his birthday. Oh, oh, he's the guy. He's on the Niners staff and they flew out on his birthday or flew and skipped his birthday. Yeah, Australia. He took off on September 2nd. Landon September 4th. His birthday September 3rd. Oh, he just got no birthday. That's funny. He's still 49.

1:00:53It's like yeah, the leapier babies who were. Yeah, but four years old. He works with the 49ers. What if he just figures out a way to miss his birthday every year? Oh my God. Yeah, he does. 49ers 49. Yeah, he loves the 49ers so much that he flies to Australia every September 2nd. Every year. Wow. Did the Niners cut a guy? Did I read that correctly? That a guy flew to Australia? Did I get ball sack on that? A guy flew to Australia and once they landed, they cut him. Oh, I didn't know that. That sucks. The Rams haven't even taken off yet, right? Yeah, the Rams. The Rams are waiting for the end of the first quarter. The season's starting on on Wednesday, Mark. If you ask me, if you ask me in May, what do I think about the season starting on on Wednesday? I'm like, get this gimmicky shit out of here. God damn it. Yeah, footballs meant to be played on Sunday. Sometimes Saturdays, Monday to sometimes Fridays, often Thursdays. That's when football is supposed to be played. Right. It's not supposed to be played on a fucking Wednesday. There should be no football on Wednesday. But now there's NFL football tomorrow

1:01:56tomorrow night. Yeah, there's NFL football. And that's pretty, that's pretty amazing. And it's, and so you're a fan of the Wednesday? I am a fan that we're going to have NFL football tomorrow Thursday night and going forward. Yes. Yeah. So I am accepting of it. Basically, I would like to criticize everything Roger Gidell does until it comes around and I'm like, he got me. You might have gotten this one right. I have a crazy confession as a guy whose Alma Mater's ranked number one in college football. I think I'm more excited for the NFL than college football this year, right? Really? And I'm sorry to say that to two college football guys. I don't know what it is. We're just ball guys. I think there's something about the current state of the NFL that that really gets me. I really, really like it. Everybody's got a chance. Everybody's got a chance. I think that's it. I think that for a long, the longest time, I was told to have a chance. You have to have one of like the five elite quarterbacks. If you don't have one of those five guys, give it up. Like maybe you'll make the conference championship. Maybe you'll have, maybe you'll be a cute story. You got no hope. You got no hope. But that's not the case. I feel like

1:02:56in modern NFL, like Matt Stafford, great quarterback. I'm not saying he's not a great quarterback. But Matt Stafford won the MVP last year. And I don't think anybody thought Matt Stafford's like the best player going in. If you would have done like the top 100, whatever list they do of football players going in the NFL last year, show me one list that had Matt Stafford in number one. Didn't exist. He wins the MVP. Sam Darnell wins the Super Bowl. I think we're in an era of like the idea. The Super Bowl winning quarterback is not does not have to be as good as what I think conventional wisdom says he has to be. Sam Darnell last year. Jalen hurts a couple years ago. I think Jalen hurts. Great example. I think people look at quarterbacks and they say to themselves that guy's not good enough to win a Super Bowl. Confetti quarterbacks. But the reality is there. I think there are way more quarterbacks than than what people want to say there are Brandon. I think I think they're more seats at the table than then we want to believe there are. And on top of it, sorry, I'm on a roll. I'm on a roll. On top of it with the NFL, you have the perfect formula

1:03:56for in pro sports, which is the unbeatable Goliath that actually might be beatable. And I love that. I love that situation that the Rams are the dream team. They're a super team. They're who the fuck is going to beat them. But at the same time, people are like, now hang on a second. If you look at the Super Bowl favorite going into every NFL season, they always find a way to kind of mess it up. And I think that's very compelling. Everything you're saying, can I say that we're still not stopping doing that. This year, there's a guy, CJ Stroud, who plays on a team with the very best defense in the league, all 11 starters back. They almost willed him to a Super Bowl last year when he was got off on the playoffs. Yeah. And you say, and if I said the Texans are going to win the Super Bowl, you would say, or maybe not you because you're no higher state guy, but somebody would say, and CJ Stroud can't win the Super Bowl. So we're still doing it. They're still doing it. Even with Sam Darnold, Bonaix can win a Super Bowl. Bonaix can't win a Super Bowl. Bonaix is a is a small might of won a Super Bowl last year. He had a quarterback with Bonaix. Or you can win a Super Bowl with Bonaix. Okay. So the cutoff used to be, we thought it was maybe like the top six,

1:04:57six to eight quarterbacks. Like Brady Manning, Breeze Rogers now is a half the league. And it might be half the league is what I'm saying. And that excites me as a guy who just loves watching at a football ball is that like I think every this exercise. Yeah. I need to see the NFL teams. I think I think the NFL almost got like NBA brain where like you had to get a guy. Yeah. Yeah. And you sort of overpay for that guy. And now you don't have like the supporting cast around him, whereas now like we saw the T.O.X. could be approach of like, I'm going to mark the supporting cast. Fucking awesome. Every time you say yes. Okay. We're starting the AFCs. Can Josh Allen win a Super Bowl? I believe he can. I believe he has what it takes. Can Drake may win a Super Bowl? I think you have to say yes. He almost did last year. Can Malik Willis and the dolphins win a Super Bowl? I'm going to go know on that one. Yeah. Yes, but no. Can the Jets win a Super Bowl? That's a no. All right. I'm switching to the AFC North. Can the Lamar Jackson win a Super Bowl? I believe so. Can Aaron Rogers win a Super Bowl? I believe he can, Brandon.

1:06:02I believe Aaron Rogers can. Can Deshaun Watson win a Super Bowl? No. He's absolute dog shit, but I was trying to like, I was trying to really think through how good Cleveland's defense might be. How Deshaun could like can. Yeah. Can Joe Burrow win a Super Bowl? I believe he can. Yes. I believe he's good enough to do so. Switching to the AFC South can Trevor Lawrence win a Super Bowl? I believe yes. I believe Trevor Lawrence with the right supporting past and the right circumstances. A little bit of luck. Sure. I think he could win a Super Bowl. Can Daniel Jones win the Super Bowl? We're doing this 32 times. So just Sam Darnel won a Super Bowl. I know. That might be my line. That's like the Daniel Jones line, might be I see the last one or the first one. I think I think he's the last one. I think he's in. I'm more inclusive. I'm a quarterback, a polygist. So I would say yes. I tend to give quarterbacks more grace than the general public. Can CJ Strauss win a Super Bowl? I believe so. I believe so. And I don't even particularly like CJ Strauss that much. Can Cam Ward win a Super Bowl?

1:07:08I'm saying no. Not with this iteration, but I, yeah, I mean, for the purpose of the exercise, let's say no, but I don't want to be attached to the idea that Cam Ward can never win a Super Bowl. Because I think I think it's way too early. Are we going to keep going? All right. Can Bo next win the Super Bowl? Can Justin Herbert win the Super Bowl? Yes. I believe he can. Can Fernando Mendoza win the Super Bowl? Again, with the sort of the Cam Ward thing. He's not doing a dish here, but I can't say no to that. But let's say no. Anyone here's a tough one. I want to really think about this. Can Patrick my home's when the Super Bowl is quarterback? I don't know. I don't know. I'm remarking down his. Yes. Put it. Put him in. Yes. But by the way, that's 11 in the AFC. So there you go. That's 11. And maybe CJ Strauss could have been in Daniel Jones. If he won't even even if you want to say no to those, they're still nine. Yeah. But I still you're chair. CJ Strauss could win the Super Bowl. Sam Donnell won the Super Bowl, guys. Yeah.

1:08:10Like CJ Strauss won the Super Bowl. And it's not good. He's not good. Strauss is that good. It's at the the, CJ Strauss. It's that the Texans defense is that good. You know, if he can just not throw the ball to the other team every time he drops back. Do you want to put cousins into Super Bowl? By the way, you skipped over him. You just didn't know. But do you think they're going with cousins in week one? Yeah, but Mentos is going to be the starter and week. I mean, Evo does bring up a fair point. Like to Sean Watson, you also said he can when the Super Bowl is just riding Shadassi's coat tail. Yeah. Shadassi does he want to show us? Because Shadassi won the Super Bowl. It's what we really should be asking. Yeah. That's right. Talk to me about tennis, Blutman. You got the tennis show. He's the best. He's my favorite. He's my favorite athlete in the world. There was a, I realized Carlos Alcaraz is my favorite athlete doing it right now. He took his shirt off the other day and there were streaks in the crowd. Yeah. I don't know what you were doing

1:09:11that tennis. We're doing the crows. Yeah. I guess so. Yeah. The women, the women love Carlos Alcaraz, but I do too. I'm not a woman. I fucking love the guy. He wore, he debuted like a tank top in his first round matchup. And then the second round, he wore this, this undershirt thing. At you. Yeah. I think it was a very kind of novation. And then they were at his ass. Yeah. Someone pointed out all wedding rings. Yeah. A lot of what. He's a guy back. You're right. He was asked why he was wearing the undershirt in the next round. And he said his nipples were popping out. Yeah. He didn't like seeing the two muscles. You could see my nipples too much. And then he won this match. And now Andy Rodik, see if you can find that clip of Andy Rodik telling him who he's playing next. You see this? Big match tomorrow. I love Carlos Alcaraz. He's just like a player that isn't a big name. And he doesn't know who it is. Is that how? No, no, you'll see it. You'll see the second. It's I don't want to spoil. Carlos, I'm sure your

1:10:16eyes will be on the match with Shelton and Sitsabas. Maybe just a quick word on the challenges that both of them might could bring to whether I'm in say again, say you might you're either going to play Shelton or Sitsabas. Maybe just a word on both of them and I'm a challenge. I saw oh my god. I thought I was playing. You know, my back. Yeah. You're welcome. I mean, both of them. I mean, I have no idea who he didn't know he was playing. He didn't know what the bracket was. He thought he was playing the other side of the bracket. He was like, so you asked him about two guys. He's like, why do I care about those two? That's he's like, because you're about to play the winner. And he's like, really? That's frightening. Is that one of the tennis players not locked in? Or is that one he's super locked in? You think it's right. You think he's like so good. He just doesn't care. I think it's his first tournament back in a while. I just think he's there essentially playing with house. My playing free. Whatever happens happens. And that's the scariest that a tennis player can be. I think there's a euro pressure. He has on him. I love him so much. Can I ask you all

1:11:20a question after I tell you about EA sports? Yeah, of course. I'm in 2035, by the way. I've won seven national championships in a row. I'm 153 in five. Did I put it on the easiest level so I can see Mr. Cepi State succeed? Have I won the last seven high-spin trophies? Yes, yes, yes. That is where I'm at in my life. But my God. Zach Parms, this this this this junior receiver from grapevine, Texas. It's unbelievable. Zach Parms. Zach Parms. I just got wavy, flowing blonde hair. The ladies in Starfall love him. Zach Parms. And then my my quarterback, Trey went from from from from Saginaw, Michigan is just these are five star. He replaced your main sass. He was a who was a damn high-spin trophy winner last year. He lost his job. I can't remember about Zach Parms. What's the high-spin slogan for? I'll get you say you want some imagery of Zach Parms. I can bring that to what number does he wear? Zach Parms wears number

1:12:2117. Oh, Zach Parms wears 17. Yes. Now I got some great receivers all over the field. But Parms is Parms is my guy. I moved, remains asked from high-spin trophies winning quarterback to slot receiver. And then I've got of course my running back. John Case for Harin just took the job from Khalichi Odinimo. So it is it the Starfall dynasty is rolling. Does it get the old winning? No, no. I don't get tired of it at all. I don't get tired of it at all. Trey went through five to six games has 31 touchdowns, five interceptions. Does Zach Parms have a brother on the team or maybe a recruit? No, well, we we we'll see. Parms is just my when I talk about or I'm talking about Zach Parms. It's unbelievable. And and hope for his only outsides a great receiver too. But Parms is my guy. And then I got a couple five star freshmen. You know, I don't know how I'm going to get Isaiah Graves in the game. Oh, and I got cocoa basketball. What am I going to do with cocoa basketball? All right. All right. Read the ad.

1:13:22Reading. Reading. One of my cocoa basketball. Okay. Get up. All right. You're just making shit up. No, I promise. Read the ad. Coco basketball is is unbelievable. That was a heat check. Brandon. How far could I take this? Almost like cocoa basketball. Come on. I'll be showing you cocoa basketball tomorrow. No way. Coco.

1:14:25parm 17 Mississippi state jersey. Oh my god. Dude, I got I got to take a picture of parms tonight. You're gonna and I'm gonna take a picture of cocoa basketball because this guy I didn't even talk to you about the fucking defense. I'm fucking talk to you about them. Oh man. Anyway, what's what's that mother fucks? I can't remember the defensive players names. Yeah. Is this LSU thing a thing or no? What? What we're talking about? Familtweeted. The SEC filed an amendment to its federal lawsuit against LSU linked to different school officials on Tuesday with 60 authority for the SEC to expel LSU from the league. The SEC is not expected to take such action, but the filing indicates a seriousness of league as an attempt to affirm the legal right to enforce its own rules. That was the point of the original federal suit filed last week with Dan Murphy. So what I believe has happened. I believe both the SEC and LSU have both

1:15:27stormed up to the line. They they ran like two to battlefield. They too to you know what do you call it? Armies on battlefield. They marched all the way up to each other. There's a line. They stopped. Yep. And now LSU has acknowledged the line. They didn't they didn't roster the players. And the SEC is just putting it in paper. What we could do. Yeah. What we could do if you fucking cross their touch and up the line a little bit. They're touching up the line. Some dirt got like thrown over the line. They're paint in the line. Like brushing the dirt off the line, repaint in the line. Yeah. They're just getting the line nice and pretty. Now LSU right now is standing there with our arms crossed. Look at the line. Like I'm not crossing that line. Yeah. I'm not touching you. But watch their watch your toes. What they might as we go further. Yeah. Maybe an injury happens. Maybe somebody sneaks under the roster. I don't know. Now I know there's rules around. There was a rule the roster deadline. But guess what? Do they care about rules? Yeah. And like who knows? Who knows what they're going to do? Um well, let's think about this. Yes. If LSU were to get booted from the SEC.

1:16:31Sure. And they go to let's say the sunbelt or the American. Yeah. Do they deserve a seat at the table? No, because college football playoff. Well, if we really wanted this will never happen, never going to happen. But if we really wanted to flesh us out in solidarity with the SEC, no big 10 big 12 or ACC team would ever schedule them again. No, they would likely not schedule them again. So they would be stuck in a world where they would only be playing sunbelt and lower quality opponents. And it would they would lose all all hope. And the players wouldn't go there anymore, right? Or they win by so much that they can have a little more fun playing football that it doesn't need to be they don't need to be as locked in. They can be a little looser because it's like we're playing. We're playing these low level schools. We're going to beat the fuck out of them. So let's get a little let's get a little crazy. And they start pepper and some trick plays and the fans love it. And then they just get a and they say, why don't we do more dances as we're introduced. And then before you know it, you look up and they are the Savannah bananas.

1:17:33LSU football has become the Savannah bananas of college football. I'm going to be there attracting them out from all over the country. They could go they could go and get like a Houston Long Street like they already did. They could go and get Brock Boyd from Ohio. So they exact parms from Mississippi. They air and sky low from Florida. They could do it all. Zach parms on the LSU bananas. Oh, Jayden Paul. Zach parms. Yeah. Y'all are joking about that. Marm 99 speed. He's a beautiful man. You're going to be when you see Zach parms, you're going to be stunned. I mean, like that's a movie. He is handsome. That's a movie. Yeah. Yeah. Wavy blonde locks. Yeah. Long. Like. 99 speed. Huh? Blond man. Yeah. Yeah. I was shocked too. But that's and he was a four star. Where's he from? Four star. He's from Great Bind Texas. Wow. Can I say a question about real life Mississippi state football? Sure. When you said on Saturday is the best earth you haven't felt this in Stackpress got where you specifically talking about Camario Taylor or about the team as a

1:18:36Mario Taylor. Okay. Gotcha. Camario Taylor. I undersold him. I have tried to be, you know, kind of slow footing this process. But we got the we got to do amongst dudes. He's six four two thirty. Did you see the throw that one viral? He kind of steps into the pocket a little bit and just just flex it goes goes. I believe 85 yards in the air. I'm not trying to embellish it every single time I say it. But I think I think I think you're right. They threw it 88 yards in the air. They were saying the man passing having every throw is going 80. That's what they were saying. That's what they were saying. And I generally don't give a fuck about the man passing academy because it's a fuck him. But now I'm like, yeah, look at this. Look at this. It's not just the throw. Look, it's like he handed the ball off to the guy. Real effortless. Okay. Just I'll just step up here. You know, and it just keeps going and going and going right in his pocket. Right in his pocket. Right in his pocket. Well, parms is more of a slant guy. He's more of a yeah, he doesn't really have a

1:19:38always can't guard parms. He's just Mike Thomas. Yeah, plant. Can't guard parms. Can't guard. Can we? I'm not really that comfortable with you guys joking about Zach Parms. I don't want to give out who's joking. I don't want to get back to my locker room. Zach the egg plant parms. Can you please send screenshots of all their stats tonight? I want like a full career arc of the yes. Yes. I'll have you every ever bit of information you want on Zach Parms. You're going to have. I love falling in love with one of your your fake guys. It's so much fun. It's so amazing. I that's one of the great things about doing Dynasty modes. I still talk about Jerome Hagen and Cole Van. That was 25 years ago. They were they were at Akron. They were my first five stars at Akron. Uh, what? Cole Van was a five star athlete. That was my quarterback Jerome Hagen was a six four 247 bat running back one through on three high spits. I'll never forget Jerome Hagen. I don't know. Never forget Zach Parms. And Jason Sly last year's game. Jason Sly was incredible. I'm not sure I'll ever forget Zach Parms. No. That name's just stuck in the brain forever. Zach Parms.

1:20:41Blond fellow 99 speed. I almost want I kind of I kind of want to leave right now just so I can go plug. Go put go. Zach Parms. Uh, you know how game day. Parms here. Well, all right.

I did that. People check in on. I don't know. But we're checking in on the bracket contest for the barstals best. All right. Down, which is through the first. I had some problems with the city. But uh, you know, maybe the people people

1:21:46rectify them. Yeah. Maybe it'll work itself out here through and around of 32. I don't see state college being a one seat is that Rouge out. Wow. State college being a one seat is just bananas. Just absolutely insane. Oh, I talk to the brand. Are you okay? You put me in your pants? Baton Rouge out first round. Baton Rouge out. What else? Columbus lost the four call. I actually don't. I don't mind that. I love my own. I love. I love going back to Columbus. Columbus is a city. Columbus is a Knoxville out. Doesn't really feel like a college town per se. It feels like a city. Bring a walker out. Bring a walker out. Right in the middle of a segment. It's bad. That's good. Um, what else we got Norman or or or tempi interesting. Now, has he out for New York? That's fine. New work Delaware. College station,

1:22:48beta one seat is also absurd. College station is state college being one seat. You're just I was that that's proof that though that the people that put this bracket together have not been to either one of those places. I was told last week when I was in New York that it was based off of a previous tournament experience and success in this specific college down bracket. Yeah. Mark and town. That was Madison being a once you make sense of finding that. Um, Bloomington. Oh, what else we got? Boulder over Minneapolis. Oxford out. West Lafayette. West Lafayette through the second round. Mark and I caught that. San Marcos. Now I've never really been to actually I have. I think I have. I think I did like the little river flow. San Marcos should win just because they have a river that you can float on. I think that's where you do the floats. My brother did is a bachelor party in Austin. I think we went to San Marcos. Pull up the map. San Marcos close to Austin. I think we went to San Marcos and we did like the float thing there. Yeah. Yeah. You know, you float down the river on the tube. You got your thing of beer. San Marcos river.

1:23:52Yeah. I think that's where we did it. I think that alone is enough for San Marcos to be better than West Lafayette. Which West Lafayette has that. Yeah. That's where we went. And I think that what is that Texas state? Is there? Yeah. Yeah. That's a bad miss by the people. It's a bad miss. Austin's out there. Bozeman great great sleeper pick by the way. I see Bozeman in the middle of that bracket. Bozeman versus Tucson. That is a that's like a that's an elite eight matchup in the second round. I think I think that could be a elite eight matchup in the second round. I've had great times in both of those college towns. Great times. Blutman and I and you know it's crazy. I remember most of them. Yeah. You know, I'm saying good. Meanwhile, the Montana state athletic director is beefing with the Nevada head coach. I don't know about this beef. Yeah. Fill me in. What happened here? Nevada is playing or sorry. I think it's Montana's I'm sorry. Nevada is playing Montana state this week. Yeah. Montana state is like a touchdown favorite. Nevada

1:24:53head coach said he coached a Montana state a few years ago. He said I don't want to be playing Montana. I obviously wanted to play Montana. And he's like we tried to schedule them. They they they want to play us. The Montana athletic director then tweeted emails from 2024. They were like, Hey, look, we tried to play a we didn't get an answer. Oh. So now they're beefing big time. Interesting. This is a we're publishing emails. Apparently, but that's what it's come to you start accusing a guy of something. He's like, no, hang on a second. My so they wanted to play Montana. They couldn't get it done. So he played Montana state. Correct. But Montana state's better than Montana. We don't know. They're they're they're about equal. The Montana state is now number one in the FCS. Montana. I believe it's three or four. You knew Montana state played this weekend. Yeah, you do. Who they play. Yeah, do you know who they play? Shoot. No, I forget. They played Butler. They played Utah Tech week one, I think.

1:25:57They played Butler this week. Zero. Why? Butler Butler, not good. But why would it? Butler in the non-scally league. The non-scally took some hardels early on. The non-scally. Why did Butler fly to Montana to get their ass beat? Low-mind. There's the pioneer league in the FCS. All non-scally's. It's the most hilarious collectible teams. Yeah, let's see if you can guess. There's some basketball schools. What am I looking up for this? Look at the pioneer football league. Can you guess team, we just gave you two. Can you guess a team in the pioneer football league? We gave them. You just said Davidson. There's Montana state still at Taco. They still got dollars. Yeah, very cool. Past on some NIL money. Yeah, that I saw Butler was playing there and I was confused by the whole ordeal. The pioneer. Name one pioneer football league team. You're a fucking all over the side. It is the most random conference you've ever seen.

1:26:58Yeah, what the fuck? This could be a poor decision segment. Yeah, all non-scally goes to coast. Give me it's like coast to coast and tip to tip. I'm trying to think of there are some solid basketball mid-maintenance. Butler and Davidson are both in this. Correct. There are some solid basketball schools in here. Okay. Teams that have had like mid-major runs in March Madness. Make you want to poke your eye out. Loyola Chicago. No. Okay. George Mason. No. Oh, okay. Okay. Which is all state? No, that's a good type of guess though. That was a really good type. They haven't had a team since 10. You're wrong, but that was the right type. It's the right type. Actually made them in the same way 14 years ago. What about Indiana state?

1:28:01No, there's no alley football. I know they played Purdue. That's why I know they have a football team. Close again. Fuck. That's a great game. What about Southern Illinois? No, they're in the Missouri Valley. They're also in the Missouri Valley. So the Missouri Valley does have a football conference. Yes. How am I getting close? You're so close. Ebo knows your close. You're geographically like throw your... Murray State. Oh, they're so bad. Good answer. Good answer. Coach, good answer. They're had coaches offering a burner. Murray State's really bad. They're good sandwiches because they're not performing well. I believe they are in the Ohio Valley as well. Yeah, okay. Tough star. No, no, they're not anymore. I feel where they were. They come out of a horse racing gate at their home games. No, they're in the Missouri Valley now. UMBC. Good answer. Good answer. No, bad answer. Bad answer. That's a bad answer. Bad answer. Really bad answer. You said, you said majors that have done something

1:29:01that uh, uh, barely Dickinson. I'm just going to keep doing like famous upsets. I'm just going to keep doing like famous upsets. Baby blue. Who should the Pioneer League should have been? Nice little. Dayton. Dayton is in the league. Dayton. Okay. Dayton is in the league. Uh, it's not the only thing. Think Drew brothers. Think Drew brothers. Think, uh, the Drew. Oh, Baylor, the property. Oh, no. Aren't they... Think a little powder. Or think hug me. Think iconic, iconic, uh, buzzer beater by Drew. Which was also the Drew. What what what was the last name of the property brothers? Are they Drew's? Oh, I think it's property. What's that? I don't know. I thought they were. What? Uh, oh, Scott. They're Scott. They're another. I just came to me. They're a one of his name Drew. Brand the good play. Drew Scott. Um, Val Parazo. Val Parazo. I mean, name it every single. We don't have to name it every single. But it's it's Dayton Valpo Butler. Is Maritus Morehead State Presbyterian,

1:30:05St. Thomas Stetson San Diego, and Davidson Drake. I don't know if you can put this conference on a map. But what a conference. That's a conference now. That's been a that's big conference. That's the pie in the air non scholarship. They add a new team every year's. Drake is the one we are trying to steer you to. Okay. Then I'm sorry. I apologize. I didn't pick up on that. Drake would have been a good one. We got on a Montana Montana state. And then I I made note that Butler played at Montana state this weekend and didn't really make any sense to me. Really? Well, there's not particularly good. Why would you go all the way across the country to? Are you guys aware of the? You remember, um, well, obviously our basketball team, Frey Lutheran. We might have a football version. Oh, really? It's Northwestern State, the alma mater of Bobby A. Bear. Oh, a lot of great NFL Hall of Famers. They made news in week one by losing to NAAI, Louisiana Christian. One of the most embarrassing losses ever. They followed that up this weekend by playing Louisiana Tech.

1:31:08Now Louisiana Tech took their foot off the gas up 77 three, halfway through the third period. They ended up winning 80 to six. But Northwestern State out of Louisiana is one to watch this year. This week they play, I believe, Texas A&M Commerce or one of those. West Texas A&M, one of those. Yeah, he's Texas A&M Commerce. Keep an air match up. We're in week two. Keep an eye on those teams are rowing to keep an eye on Northwestern State for for somebody we need to pay attention to. No, did did you see it? We'll get to the great last thing I had. Did you see the Nathan Field? So okay, so actually when I was reading that, I was like, I got to ask about this. So I saw this clip exist. It's everywhere. Every time you turn on Twitter, there's that blonde woman looking very serious. I haven't watched it. What is it? Nathan Field was making a documentary on Elizabeth Holmes, who's, I don't know what tonne about to be honest. This is like a story that captivated the nation. And I think the white woman really into the story. But maybe more. I don't know. Maybe maybe it was everyone. It just slipped past me, but she was like a fraudster basically. When I hear the name Elizabeth Holmes,

1:32:09I mash up the actresses Elizabeth Banks and Katie Holmes in my mind. Exactly. Yes. And it's all an actress. I thought this was a, when I saw this initially, I thought this was a. Tom Cruise's wife. The woman who, who was the woman that went missing like it was in Colorado that like, Elizabeth Smart. Elizabeth Smart. I think you're, is that her name? I don't know. Yes, maybe. That sounds right. That was like kidnapped. And then was like a few miles down the road the whole time. That sounds right. Elizabeth. Oh, that was maybe something. Elizabeth could someone Google that name? She was abducted from her home and so is that the name Elizabeth Smart? Yeah. Okay. Yeah. That's what that's what I thought this was. That's so this clip 2002. What what what am I looking at a documentary and uh, yeah, I just wanted to do. Have you watched? No, I haven't. She's she's going to jail. She's she's in jail. Yeah, she's in jail and it started filming. They started filming this like a month before she was going to jail. Okay. Are you aware of her crimes? By the way, you just know she's a fraudster. I just not you just told me she's a fraudster.

1:33:10No, she invented or she her company was Theranos and they basically claim that they had like a crazy blood testing technology and like special machines that just ended up like never exist. She was like a she was a billionaire that actually wasn't a billionaire. But she was like on a list of like the richest women in the world or which richest people. Yeah, she's part of like the 30 under 30 curse people kind of point to sometimes. There's a she would always be like as if she was Steve Jobs. All right, play the play the thing play the thing. I'm not that person. I can promise you that. I don't have anything to deceive you on. Of course, I'm not deceiving you. I'm engaging with you as a human being. Why would I deceive you? There's no reason for me to do that. I'm sorry. All right. Okay, good chat. You're being real right now.

1:34:21Oh, he's being real. How long has this last? I don't know if it's supposed to be funny. I thought so hard. I think it's like him meeting his match where it's like he's such a bullshit or like he puts on and she's she's the biggest liar like up to 21st century. So obviously she's lying. And he's like, he's meant to come out next month. I cannot. Three hour documentary. I cannot wait. I get hurt in surviving. Where will I camp next? All right, let's do the grid. May I real quick? Yeah, surviving finale last night. Congratulations to Ron. Shout out to Ron. Shout out to Ron. Shout out to Ron. Congratulations. He's obviously won, but I feel like people who are saying Brandon Walker is a big winner in this show. Yeah, yeah. Well, the Brandon Walker as well. And apparently all you have to do to win in people's eyes was just tell the truth.

1:35:22Yeah. And just be like, hey, you're full of shit. You have a you've carved out a nice little lane for yourself where like you can have a meltdown and people love it. And I feel like if the meltdown is justified, that's true. It was just a bad meltdown. I will say it was just a bad meltdown. But I don't know how many people at the company could have pulled that off. How many people could have had the meltdown you had. But you do it in a way that. Yeah, you speak truth to power, Brandon. Yeah, it was love and we love you for it. And I finished fifth. No, you know, I went to tribal council and there were four people with immunity. And it was totally fair. But anyway, shout out to Ron. Ron was the best player of the whole game and he should have. And that's a funny. Now that's just funny. That's just good old. Yeah, that's just good old fashioned Twitter, Twitter founder. You're the internet man. All right. Let's do the grid. Yeah, do the grid. Lebron James. Nick Stauskis. Russ middle left. Yeah.

1:36:22Deer and Fox. Everybody hold on. Deer and Fox. He's right. Deer and Fox middle middle. Yeah, I helped. Good. That's good. Which I do it or no. Yeah. I think that was an obvious one. And I do think Lebron James bottom right is obvious. That's that was a disappointing number for you. Honestly, that's fine. Deer and Fox middle right. White chocolate or baby. Halliburton. It's not the kids. The kids don't know white chocolate. Excuse me. We've run into that before. By King. Cad Spurs. Danie Green. Russ, I think it's Russ middle left. Whenever it's middle left is Russ. Also Vince. Can we do Vince anywhere? Can we do Vince? I don't think so. Let me play right. Middle right. Play, play Ross, right? The Vince average five assists for the Kings. Now, I'm going to say a wizard, Kav. And you tell me if I'm stupid. Anton James. I was thinking that too. Yeah, I'm talking. Brendan Haywood.

1:37:22Timofay Mazgov. All right. What about Mazgov? What about a wizard's six, sir? Dwight Howard. Dwight Howard. He's got Vince like qualities in this game. He does. Did, did Weber play for the wizards? Weber certainly played for the wizards. I have a Chris Weber bullet jersey. Weber Simmons gotta be the assists. There's a lot you could go for with assists. Connor, you make the call in assists. No, just let Connor do it. Not actually. Hey, I'm not the answer. Ben Simmons. Hey, I do it. It might be hard. It honestly. When you go hard. But you're the one that will come back to me on that. You're over thinking it. Five assists per game. Philadelphia 76. First name that comes to mind. Go. Well, he said first name that comes to mind. You're thinking through your list of names. Say the first name. Keep rhythm with me.

1:38:23One, two, one, two, three. Go. James Harden. I think James Harden. But I don't. It is Macb-B-O-B-O. Connor. I don't like how we had no deliberation on that. That's not my tempo. And I don't like that we had zero deliberation on that. We never do that. But you're a sixer. I know. It's time for you to take charge when the sixers are on board. Put the white hour top left. Philadelphia. Sorry, six. In Howard. You're such a hard one. We could do Danny Green middle middle or middle middle. Middle. Was that Kelly? Was that Kelly Ubrae maybe? Is that Connor who's top mid Danny Green? Well, unless we want to, unless we want to, I don't see even what? Do we want to save him for bottom bottom middle? Oh. We can put fucking I think fatty. You see young Richard Jefferson bottom middle Richard. Yeah, bottom middle. Okay, yeah, go. Go to the end of green. And I like Jameson and I like white chocolate. Yeah. Williams right there.

1:39:26Could be baby, but that's all right. Yeah, that's the one. I like that. That's better than Harden. This was Richard Jefferson. Richard Jefferson and then Antoine Jameson. This is not a terrible. We might have a chance, boys. We might have a chance. Probably not with hard seven. Harden's going to be hard and blew it. It's Iverson. It's Iverson. It was Iverson the whole time. That was double. Damn, we got double Danny Dean. No, I got double Danny. It was bippy. It was Jameson though and it was bippy. That was pretty good from us. Yeah, it's a con. We were all around. I thought people would have thought if I ever supported score or not. That's right. That's all right. Double green bailout. We're getting double green. It's double green. Shadow Greg. All right, that's the show. We'll be back tomorrow. That's what balls done.
