Great time with him also during the Euler's Ducks game. So you're going to want to

tune into that. We're going to talk draft NFL draft 2026 is complete. We've got playoff action to talk about. We've got who's back the week. It's a great Monday and it's brought to you by our friends at Chevy. Our AWLs know that Chevy Silverado is the official truck. Apart from my take, that's because Silverado is a truck with grit that shows up every time built to haul tow and take a beating. But smartware accounts with modern tech that makes it life easier.

either to Silverado check out the current offers and build your Silverado at Chevy.com. Okay, let's go. Okay, part of my take. Yeah, part of my take. Welcome to part of my take, presented by draft Kings. The crown is yours. Today is Monday, April 27th and the NFL draft is complete. Good job, boys. Good job. People drafted and Diego Pavia. We did it. I was going to say, I'd like to update my draft grades that I gave out. Oh, on Friday, we gave out draft grades.

“I think every team got an A. The dolphins got, I think, a B plus because they got proctor and”

and groomed in like that. I'd like to revise these. Every team got an F because they didn't draft Diego Pavia. Yeah. And he's going to make them all pay. And he's now going to Raven's mini camp. He's going to mini camp. Yep. I did see there was every camp. So many camp when you're his true. I saw fake tweet or Instagram story Diego Pavia being like fuck the NFL. That was not real. That was kind of bullshit that someone made it look like he said that. Maybe should have had an agent,

but probably not. I don't know that if you can play football, you would have gotten draft first. He's been finalists to not get drafted since you guys know. He's been finalists to not get drafted. I don't know. Jordan Lynch Northern Illinois. Maxim. Legend. But congrats to Pittsburgh. They had 85,000 people go to the draft. That is a record. Congratulations. Canceled school on Thursday and Friday. Yep. We like that. Made sense. Oh, they didn't. Yeah. You did it. Oh, yeah. You can't have kids going to

school when the NFL drafts in town. That's a joke. No. That's a good sports. No, that's a great sports

going on this week. They had to do it. What are you talking about? We talked about this. The cancel school. Why are you so pro school? Two days for the NFL draft and at nice the NFL draft dude. Yeah. I don't know what you're under. It's day one and two. It's not day three. At night. Day three. You can miss it. It's fine. Yeah. That is that's wild. Good sports on a guess. Great sports. Yeah. You can go to school in the draft. No. Yeah. How? The drafts was that night.

“Yeah. But no. No. You just be thinking about the draft all day. Absolutely not. You have to”

let everyone go to the draft. By the way, Max, well, I had some draft thoughts. Let's stick with Pittsburgh because we have another we gave you the Pickensburg pressing last week out of Pittsburgh. This week we have Andrew Philopano who is a radio host in Pittsburgh who if you remember how to get his nipples pierced had this tweet which was in the middle of the summer. It was 250 days before the NFL draft was in Pittsburgh. He said if the Steelers draft true Aller in 250 days, I think I'll

quit my job. Turns out the Pittsburgh Steelers did draft true Aller. He then got pressed on right. I don't know if you guys heard the radio call, but he was on radio after and someone called in and he the Andrew Philopano was like, come meet me at the studio. I'm going to show ends in an hour like let's blow up. So I like this. This is good energy going around Pittsburgh. Yeah, but I mean, that's like Andrew Philopano that's that's what he does. Yeah. His his entire economy is based on

“saying that he'll do stuff. This one is especially funny though because at the time of the tweet,”

Drew Aller was thought to be maybe a potential first rounder. And that was the big story.

One of the big stories coming out of this draft was guys going into their final college football season. Guys, you decided to stay in extra year, Drew Aller, Carson Beck, Kade Club Nick, Garrett Nussmire. All these guys that at one point were being mocked as potential first rounders. All fell significantly. Drew Aller went in the third round of the Steelers. Garrett Nussmire went in the seventh round of the Chiefs, which actually is a great spot because you just be petrol homes back up.

Kade Club Nick went to the Jets congratulations memes. That's actually a good, take a flyer on a guy in the fourth round. And the Eagles got, yeah, they got, I was going to get to that Carson Beck went to the Cardinals in the third round and the Eagles got Col Payton, which Tom Machete owes us a video. I texted him. He might be in transit right now, but we will get that video. I said, hopefully add some tears because then he said he had to be a fourth rounder.

Yeah. In order to be satisfied? Yes, he was fit. He was fit, so he has to cry. He has to cry real tears during it. And he did not hit on his Mr. A relevant pick, steady. No, okay. So no NIL. He don't rich donate to Richmond. Max, knowing what we know now about Col Payton and that is essentially everything Todd Machete told us, is there a QB controversy in Philadelphia? No, he's tastes him hell. Oh, next tastes him hell. Okay. You're going to do taste him hell on everyone. Yeah.

Sure. Smart. Yeah. Quarterback by committee. I mean, we just taste him hell. Please football player. Isn't that weird that when you say next taste him hell, it's like, it is kind of an insult because the guy plays quarterback and you're saying we don't trust him to throw, but taste him hell is awesome. Yeah, taste him hell is great. Right. But it is also kind of an insult. Col Payton started a game. I'm running back for North Dakota State in this career.

Well, you've done your research. Max, speaking, because we're on the Eagles right now,

you guys drafted a guy who's never played football, not the first time we've done that.

Yeah, we're going to screw worked out for Jordan Mylaw. Here's my question. He's a monster. He's a monster. Who are Bernard? I think I said, I think that was his name. Uh, is an absolute monster. Here's my question, though, Max. He's never played football, but then he got drafted as a defensive tackle. How do you know? They say he projects to be a defensive. Okay, because I was going to say, like, what if he's something else? What? He could be anything. I think they just looked at his body

size. And they said, this guy, like, if you were to put his measurables into another position, it's probably defense tackle. But he'd be a tight end. Don't know, Washington. Six, four, three, oh six, six percent body fat. Again, I think we talked about this guy last week. Yeah,

“that's, he's not fat enough. No. Six percent body fat is ridiculous. You need to do a”

skin and bone. Do you know that he was 11 percent body fat when he got to America? I think in January

to get to like start training and then he just lost five percent body fat like that. He got skinier while he was in America. Just body fat. That's kind of crazy. I don't know if he got skinier, he probably gained more muscle or Bernard. Yeah, he's, he's better athlete than Miles Gary. It's fucking insane. Someone that I was reading an article about him and someone said that he is hands

three hundred six pounds, never seen anything like it. That's pretty cool, man. Yeah, we got it.

It's, that's project. It's fun. If you look at the, the Roth, let usism score. This guy is like,

“they, he broke the charts. Yeah. They got to give him a shot. Did how he cook?”

Yeah, I mean, you just say that how he cooks, Jonathan Grinard. Do we, we haven't talked about that? No, that was a frown. No, yeah, yeah. How he cooked there. Yeah, sure. Some, some teams I thought did well. Actually think the Browns, the Browns had a really good draft last year. The Browns, other than like everything outside of drafting, they, they can't figure out. Right. But the draft, getting two receivers to help, well, they actually picked another quarter

back, didn't they? Then they get, uh, well, the Browns green. Yeah. But the Browns got, they drafted a proble or last year too. Yes. Yes. So the Browns, though, got a Casey conception, Denzel Boston Boston filled out their offensive line. I like what the Browns. And if you're wondering, does that name sound familiar? Denzel Boston, it should because he is David Boston's son, the old Arizona Cardinal super star just freak athlete. Do you have a comment about that? Listen, because you're

guy green, you might get green, you might get green, you might get some bad information. We all screw up from time to time. Uh, I thought that his accountability was awesome.

“Listen, that's how you apologize for, for really fucking something up. Listen, when there's a,”

a player with the same last name who plays the same position, I think that's, I think that should just be assumed. Who's the player that, oh, was it, uh, who's the player that we were talked about? Was it Devon Hester Jr? Yeah, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Who wasn't, yeah, who wasn't, but not related to. That was related to a Devon Hester. Yeah. And maybe this guy's dad was named David Boston, but he's green and did go out of his way to say, like, yeah, the the proble, why receiver from

the Cardinals. Um, that was not true. My guess is that green might have gotten AID. Yeah. I'm going to blame this on AI calling coward. Green might have gone to him for his research. Yeah. It sounds like an AI mistake. You know, like when you search and like the very first thing that pops up,

you have to top the screen. That's always wrong. Yeah. It's wrong 100% of the time. Um, I, I like

uh, other other, other teams, I like what the Ravens did because they got two more guys that Lamar Jackson can throw two in Jacobi Lane and Elijah Sprott. That just any time the Ravens draft a wide receiver, I'm like, oh, they're paying attention that they need some guys. Um, I'm trying to think we could all go around and do our teams specifically, but the Jaguars, I feel like James Gladstone is going to be a genius or he's going to crash out very soon because the Jaguars

and I don't really put a lot of weight into the whole like consensus board, but obviously those get talked about like, where did you pick him? Could you've had him later? Mm. James Gladstone said after the draft, he's like, that was the easiest draft we did. We got everything we wanted.

Four out of his five picks I believe in the, and his first five picks were all significantly

considered reaches based on the consensus board. So he's either a genius and he's like money balling this and he's seeing something before everyone else or we're going to look back and be like, why, why do we hire that that that young nerd? Like it's it's the, it's just going to be such a swing for him. Yeah, so his spreadsheets might just be completely different from everybody else's spreadsheet. But I listen, if you told him, if you tell me that you kind of like that, yeah, if you tell me

you have a spreadsheet, I mean, like, so whenever someone tries to give me a pick and they have a spreadsheet attached to it, he's got a system. The numbers could be nothing. They could just throw the numbers in there like Steven Che and just be like, this is my spreadsheet. I see, I see a spreadsheet, I see Excel and I'm like, yeah, I trust he's got the formula that nobody else has. The cells are aligned differently for him. I listen, the jaggers are good last year. Yeah, they're a very big surprise last year.

So I guess just like trust in your nerd until he becomes a dork. Yeah. Yeah. And then we had the the 49ers weirdly take a running back. I believe in the third round that that was also considered to reach and then they were asked about that afterwards. John Lynch and Kyle Shannon were like, you guys just keep reaching. What's up with that? You'll reach me that question. Yeah. Yeah, they're like, I think one of them was like actually we wanted to take them earlier. Yeah.

We wanted to double reach. That's the right answer. Yeah. Like immediately reframe the conversation and be like, we showed a lot of restraint. We had this guy as a first round grade. Yeah. And we're lucky that he slipped this late. Yeah, I mean, what I'm seeing a lot of is people that are giving draft grades out based on the consensus mock drafts and these guys. Right. And the thing the thing about mock drafts is like, literally anyone can do a mock, Hank could do a mock draft. Yeah. And then

“you see the J does a mock draft. I could do five mock drafts. Yeah. 5.0. You have to say 0.0.”

Yeah. Actually next year, I need a mock draft from you. Yeah. I would. We will put that Zach put it in a calendar. Have that be maybe a month before we need Hank's 1.0 put a month in first. Yep. And then you can every week up until the drafts, I want a new

Like, it's all, but it's just here. I don't really care. It's like the average of where everybody

had these guys going. And like, there's a lot of idiots out there that do mock drafts. Now, all that said, the commanders did get the best value compared to the average of the mock drafts. So I have to actually believe in it this year. You got to go with it for this year. I'm fine with it. There was more content that came out over the weekend about Sean McVe. And some more behind the scene stuff. Yes. During the drafting of Ty Simpson, I thought it was kind of like he didn't seem

super excited. Like, he gave some looks to to less need to in the press conference. I made you think maybe he's not like fully engaged. And then I saw the phone call to Ty Simpson. Yeah. And I saw a bunch more stuff that came out after the fact Sean McVe was not happy. No. For whatever reason, he was not in a good mood. Like, Sean McVe is a guy that well,

he, everything gets him jacked up about football. Yeah. Like, just being in a room with names of

football players gets him jacked up about football. And he was the least jacked up Sean McVe I've ever seen. I do. I don't hate the pick in the fact that the worst time to get a quarterback is when you need one, right? Like, when you're desperate for a quarterback, that's when things go wrong. If you're getting, if you're trying to get a quarterback and you're like, hey, we have a good plan for him. We don't, we're not going to put the whole franchise on his shoulders right away. That that

seems like a solid use of a draft pick. But if you're Sean McVe, if you're Matthew Stafford, you probably are like, hey, we're one player away. Why do we get that one player? Because in the if the Rams go to the Super Bowl this year, Ty Simpson will not play any any staffs. Probably. Right. Yeah. So you drafted someone in 13 who will not actually impact this iteration of the Rams.

“Again, I like to pick because I think that, again, getting yourself ready for the future. And”

since staying one step ahead of when you need a quarterback is a smart strategy. But yeah, it was,

it was weird watching the Sean McVe after. He also said, like, something, it was like, I was mad about non football stuff. Yes. That was what was going on. Yeah. I don't know. But you would think that Sean McVe is. Yeah. What's going on with Sean McVe? That's something. What's going on with Mr. I do not know. I will not be spec, I will not be in the speculative business. I'm going to withdraw myself from speculation. Yes. Do you guys want to talk about your teams?

Thank you. Sure. You want to start? I mean, PFT's guy has got me excited. Yeah. Yeah. Deez your narrow. Yep. How do you think a draft went for variable on Saturday? I don't even know, I think, I don't even know if he knows who we got yet. Oh, he probably doesn't. He's probably, like, he's probably he's spent a weekend with family, and then he'll probably come to the office Monday and see who we got and what they're going to do from there. What about the report that he was

in constant communication on? I heard that was fake news. Oh. So I've heard one of them's fake news.

“It's like Schrodinger's cat. Was he in fact in touch with the draft room or not?”

I mean, he said he was not going to be involved in this. Was he finger locked with the draft room? Day three because he was seeking counseling. So I'm assuming he was he was seeking that counseling. Maybe, you know, there was some conversation before. I'm sure. But if he was going to be involved with the minute by minute, why would he not just go? Yeah. Well, well, he's counseling. Yeah. Because he's assuming he's we used his act. Everyone knows you start counseling on a Saturday.

When you have work obligations. What now? That's when you got to start your counseling. What if the counselor was Ellie at Wolf? It's a good point PF through. Yeah. What if they were counseling together? Because maybe the counseling was at at like where the Patriots were doing the draft. So like, you know, he maybe just went to go. They were like, they have like the breastfeeding room for the families. Yeah. I mean, you go to counseling room.

Like, pops his head in real quick. Don't let freeble in the breastfeeding room. Yeah. No. Right. But the counseling room got to go. They got confessional there. Yeah. Yeah. Has really worked out. It was nice. He's have some some draft talk. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That would have been funny if freeble was like I'm doing counseling and then he was still there. And he's like, yeah, I did my counseling. I said, you know, 10 Hail Mary's in five.

There's which church. I'm good. I fucking got help my chest bro. I went to church. I do like the Disney Aeropicto hang. That guy is a beast. You go love him. And I love this reaction too. He's like, I'm not even happy to be drafted. He's like, talk to me after the roster cuts. Then maybe I'll be happy. Yeah. I'm excited. So where you give the grade? I give it a B. Salt B. Oh, that's not good. What if freeble had been there on Saturday? Probably B plus. Okay. B plus. And that makes sense.

Meems. I was a jets. What did well? Jets had a great draft. Yeah. Outside of trading up for cake Club Nick. What do you get to do? No, I thought I thought the pick's fine, but they just gave up another fourth

“rounder to go up and get them, which probably didn't have to do that. You know what you need to do is you need to find”

when they're they're definitely is a point in time where cake club Nick was mocked as a top 10 pick. Yeah, that was going into the draft. Yeah. So find that and just be like, hey, look at the value we got. There actually is one person who had cake club Nick as the number one

Oh, he's not really that rough. The next one is 25 season, right? Nailed it. I did like that's a

really powerful thing you can do though. It's look back at like, oh, this guy could be a franchise.

I did that was same how for a year. Yes. He was mocked like one or two overall for a little bit. Yeah. Jets also had a cool moment with D'Angelo Ponds. He's his player comp was Aaron Glenn. So in the team video, it was Aaron Glenn watching it. So it was very cool. Oh, I got breaking moves. By the way, it might not be breaking. It's from NYJ Matt. What is that? He said, he's aggregating a podcast. He said, leave you on Bell went on a podcast and said with his own two eyes, he saw Adam Gays snork

cocaine multiple times in New York. Jets had gone shot the fuck up. Do it's rock. Hi, overdrive. Yeah, he's put his brain in a hyper drive. Guys, can't snork sniff a little cocaine before a game? What are we talking about? That the eyes. Yeah, the eyes make a lot more sense. It's great

“too because Adam Gays got another job. Like, did we, was he Jets head coach before Dolphins has coach?”

Yeah, no, Dolphins and Jets. You would think that he would have been better if he was on coke, right?

Oh, no, definitely not. You don't think so? No, if you're, if you're an offensive genius, your hook coke, you come out, you, you sober up and you look back at your place. You're like, what the fuck was I thinking? I don't know. No, I mean, like, for games. Oh, yeah, but like when when you're, you know, everyone's had those late night business meetings around a coffee table. Right. They don't really make a lot of sense. I think if you're talking about getting

cooked up for the game planning phase. Yeah. Then that's bad news. Yeah. Yeah. Maybe just like the execution phase. Like you go on the, I don't know, field and you take a little too. You might, you might get jacked up a little bit. Could you play the clip? The original smelling salt. Yeah. He also said he might have been the dumbest coach ever. We got practice in 20, 28 minutes. What? That's a call. Yeah. Oh, man.

He better be right, leaving on Bell. Better be right. I feel like that could be, uh, uh, it's a long clip. This is also a legend. Yeah. No, it's, well, it's leave it. Well, we're not saying anything. A living on Bell, we should remind people doesn't know how old he is. Correct. So I don't know that we can trust his recollection. Yeah. That's facts. Okay. Um, me, so good, good grade for the jets.

Yeah. I give it to A minus. Okay. Max. A plus. A plus. I like it. Yeah. What was an A plus? I've, everyone should gather. They're

“drafting A plus. I don't know. You can't always go A plus right off the rip, right?”

I just did A plus. Yeah. You're right. You did. You actually, you just proved me wrong. But like, I believe, Hank, you can't do A plus. Like, Hank's our personal guy, and I believe his analysis because he was objective. You sound like just some fan off the street. You don't have Ali. I don't have Ali. Yeah, fucking Ali. I did, I did say fucking Ali and like the, the bad way, but the good way if you're an Eagles fan, when I heard about

that trade with Grinard, I was like, fucking how we do how, how does how we do that? How can, he can't keep getting away with this. Yeah. So Ali, and then it wasn't even, it wasn't even

the good pick in the third round. Now, there's a comp pick. Yeah. No, no, we'll even pick. Like,

how are we just rubbing it in at this point? Yeah. Fucking how we, and then we got another compensatory next year. So we didn't even lose the third round pick. Fucking how, fucking how, you did it again. Zach, piece of shit. You like your boys? I feel good about our draft. You sure. Give me the highlights. I mean, room bane off the back highlight, you know, homegrown guy, born in Florida, went to Miami, can play into heat,

cut points. He had, he had by far the best like walk to the stage room bane. Yeah. Like, when he, he just walked up, they had the hat, like you take your hat off and like smile, pose for a camera. He just walked up fast grab the hat, put it on like was all business. Yeah. It was like the most intimidating draft I've ever seen. By the way, there's some, there's sometimes when they get to the late rounds where like they, you know, Adele,

they let anyone go up and do a draft pick. They'll kind of suck if you got drafted. Like, I saw there was a guy like holding a dog talking about God knows what. And then he's like, "And then here's the pack." Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Just right. A little bit of just, you know, I don't know. There's just, they would piss me off. I was giving this my big moment. I'd be okay with, yeah. I got in a clown costume, comes up. Right. He's just like, "Hey, here's the pick."

It depends on what I'd be okay with getting drafted by a dog. Yeah, but I wasn't a dog. It was a guy holding a dog. Right. It was just a dog. Like Bill Bellachek when his dog. Yeah. If that dog drafted me, I'd be like, "That's awesome." Didn't Jake Palmer, like a few years ago,

“come down on off of like a ski mountain. Did it? Am I remembering that correctly?”

Well, when you said Jake, Blummer came down off. I did not think you'd be able to mount him. Yeah. I want to say he was like, he was like skiing and then he like, he did a sick move and he's like,

You know, is this a parenting bear? That sounds like COVID.

“Maybe? Have you guys ever been asked to do it a pick? No. No, I don't think I would want to.”

Just for that reason. Yes, you would. No. No. No. Yes, you would. I know. I wouldn't. Hey, you found it for that exact reason. You skiing, right? I would rock. I would not want to go out there and be like, "Hey, I'm PFT Cometer." And then I make like the the announcement of some young kids' life. Right. And also, let's just be honest with our own celebrity. Right. If we ever got offered that, we're talking 6/7th round. I don't know. Of course. That's tough. That's a blow.

Like, I'd rather be not that. I'd rather go undrafted. I would be a 7th round. I would actually announce an undrafted. Yes. Yes. I'll do that. If you want, yeah. If the commanders want me to announce, like a guy from Northwestern has signed with the commanders, I'll do that. Yep. That was in 2016.

Oh, that was a long time ago. God damn. I've been thinking about it for a long time.

I'm entirely. That really stuck out for me. One thing I did like about Ruben Bane was when they asked him about like, you know, the whole pageantry around the situation was like, I just like playing football. Oh, yeah. They also said, what number do you want to say? I don't care. Yeah. He's like, I don't care about anything. I don't know about anything. I just like playing football. You got a ball player. Did you guys see the giants pick get asked to, oh, here it is.

Pick is in fourth round 136. Shake plumber skiing down the mountain. That rocks. That will be a cool way to get drafted. Actually came away more impressed with the mascot skiing down the mountain. Yeah. He's snowboarding. Yeah. Which I'm not impressed by. And a mascot costume? No, you can't be a snowboard. You got to be a skier. That's got to be tough to do. Yeah. That actually is awesome. Did you see the giant straff pick that got asked what

he plans on doing for like the kids in the community? Yeah. Yeah. That was tough. I tough to have

that as your first like introductory press conference get that question, but also tough because

maybe it's just he just had to have the PR training. That's also a layup question. Did you just feel like I just want to I'm excited to get involved in the community? That's it. That's all you got to say. That's about the kids. He's just been like, yeah, I mean Jackson and Cam are young guys. I'm pumped to work with him. All right. So what else? What else from the

“box draft? Oh, also we got to wire us here. I think it's at like Georgia State. He's six”

foot three. So maybe we're replacing my Kevin's getting another weapon for, uh, for the bucks. You know what I mean? Okay. Yeah. We got to replace some guys. So nice for. There you go. Even better than Chris six four. I mean, that's an extra inch. We'll take that. We need everyone we can get. Yep. Okay. PFT. Um, I give my team a plus. Okay. A plus sunny styles. I think was best value in the entire draft. I love sunny styles. Great linebacker. He seemed I don't know. There's

something about him that I'm like, this is what you want to be the guy that's in the middle of your defense for the next 10 years. Every, by the way, every player from the Ohio State defense that won the national title got drafted. Yeah. Uh, between this draft and last year's draft, including Arville Reese who wasn't even a starter. Yeah. So now the entire linebacking core that we're going to have next year is going to be completely different. We're getting the

young out of position that we were super old. We're getting fast that position we were super slow. Plus, I just trust Dan Quinn if he takes a linebacker that early. I trust him. And then we got Antonio Williams from Clemson. I've heard good things about him. I saw some of his, uh, I saw a ball to do a breakdown on him. Here's why I got excited about him because ball they did a breakdown on this guy two days before the draft. Oh, so he's one of Baldi's guys. And then I saw the highlights

at Baldi was showing. They didn't really look that him. He looked wide open for a lot of the

“catches, but Baldi likes him. So I like him. So that's why that's an A+ for me. And then we got”

Joshua Josephs from Tennessee at Edge. By the way, can we just say I put this out there a couple years ago. And the draft mix, they got, they got mad at me. I think I'm done with Edge. Oh yeah, definitely. I think I'm done edging. Yeah. Can we defense a lot of defense event? Yeah, defense a lot of many defensive events. What's wrong with saying defensive? What's wrong with saying outside linebacker? Why are we edging? Who, who was the person? And why do we have to put it in all caps? Yeah,

who started that? I want answers. Exactly. Do you look up answers for me? A lot of edge. Sure. Thank you. But Joshua Josephs, I think that was like the best value in the draft. People had him slotted it like 70. We got him at 150, I think, or 147. And then Kichron Allen from Penn State, the running back. Kind of a strange pick because we've got a couple good running backs already. But this is why I like the the pick right here. They asked him

about about his nickname. He said, I was a fat baby. And everyone in the town called me fat man. Hopefully, I keep it going and Washington, they call me fat man. And you know, when I score, all you're going to hear is people saying fat man. I love that. I love how to do fat man. I like like none of that. None of that. None of that. None of that. None of that. None of that. None of that. I'm a fat man. I'm a fat man. I'm a little fat man. I'm a little fat man. Sure. I'm a little boy. And I love fat man.

Explosives. You boo, boo, boo, boo. And then yeah, we got bloc. We got offensive linemen. Then a quarter

Yeah. So I give, I give the commanders an A plus. No, A minus because we didn't draft Diego

Pavia. Yeah. I give the bears a trust in Ben Johnson because they went into the draft with one glaring hole defensive line and we didn't do anything. Except, well, actually, no, I shouldn't say that. We did get a South African in the six round who can jump out of pools. Yeah, that's cool. I mean, anytime you get a guy, you could jump out of pool. But yeah, the bear's draft strategy did not seem, I do think that like, we don't, I don't know shit last year. There were people who thought

that, you know, Colson Lovelin at 10 was a weird pick. And then he ends up being the best tight end in in in in the draft and also one of the top tight ends in the league. So I trust in Ben Johnson, but we took a center for my who actually kind of long was talking about Logan Jones. So I'm excited about that. But then we took a wide receiver in from LSU who's going to be a special teamer in Zavian Thomas in the third round. Still hadn't taken a defensive lineman. And then Ryan

“Polls gave a quote, which I, I think he's just, I think he's just maybe, maybe listen to his show too much,”

where he spins zones have gotten too good. Okay. So this is a quote by Ryan Polls after drafting a safety who I like a lot in the first round when literally we just, we need past rush. He said the D line helps the back and more often than not, but in this situation where we have good corners and good safety, we can be in a position where maybe we can have the quarterback hold the ball

a little longer. We're going for cover sucks. Yeah. That never feels like a good strategy.

In fact, like, yeah, he spins on the fuck out of that and like, listen, our secondary is when we so good that we don't need a pass rush. I've noticed that a lot of teams are doing the exact opposite. Yeah, teams that have glaring holes in their secondary are like, fuck it. Let's just get the edge correct. Let's edge ourselves. Correct. But Johnson, Ben Johnson, we also took some guys. I think I think Logan Jones is the vanilla gorilla. That's really, yeah. The cinnamon is the white

lightening. So those are good news. You've got your exciting lights lined up. Yeah, we got big talent setting. Oh, yeah. You also got the guy that got drafted 57th. Yes. And so Chicago. Yes. Got the guy. They get some time supply of ketchup. Yes. Logan Jones, which is a funniest possible combination for a city to get. And he was like, yeah, I love, I love ketchup. Yeah. That's perfect. I like to believe we'll haem it pick a lot of Texas in the fourth round. But yeah, confusing draft

for the bears, put a trust in Ben Johnson draft. It's like, hey, we, it will be interesting to see if the past rushes as bad as it was last year and the run stopping and it continues to be as bad, there will probably be some, we're going to have to have some honest conversations. So we're going to sit down uncomfortable honest conversation about what what the strategy has been where there's just been no, there's did nothing that's been put into the defensive line

“for multiple years and we're all the draft. Okay. So that's a draft talk. Anything else from the draft?”

It's over. Hank, you happy it's over. Yeah. I'm ready. I'm ready for football to come back. Oh, what about the, uh, we did have a fake browns pick. There's a new movie probably. Yeah. We draft day, too. Did you guys see that? Yep. Roger Cadel came up and announced a fake browns pick. They boot him. So that'll be interesting. I'm excited for that. And we also had the dog that took the

seat on the couch. That was cool. Yeah. That was a good dog. Very good dog. That's sorry. That's basically

the Saturday of the draft is for two things. It's for dogs being in the, in the draft party at home and counseling with your family. I would also add. Let's take three. Yeah. It's Saturday. It's Saturday. Yeah. I know you get confused because you probably had to do counseling, too, for about your coach. Hank was with his family. Yeah. You were actually, right? How many times did you visit your family? Not Saturday. Oh, you only visited your family on Sunday? Yeah.

So did you do some counseling today? What did you shoot Saturday? Bad. Lefty's bad. What would give us a number? It doesn't matter. Come on. Give us a number. No matter. This is what you're talking about being on. No one wants to hear about your golf score. No, we're not talking about golf score. Just talk about your counseling. Yeah, okay. I keep that between me and the counselor. I know. I want to worry about your kids. Keep it in the

“family. All right. We're going through some stuff on the home front. What do you mean stuff?”

Just just it's internal matters. All right. Well, I hope it's not internal. Would you score? It's no one cares. Can you hear it? Hey, PFT to you, care because I care. I care a lot. I care a lot about it doesn't matter. It's not. I want your family to be successful. I want your family to be together. I want to support your family. I appreciate that. We appreciate that. Did you score more less than the semi-sexures? Wait more. Had to be more. No, the sexors. What did they end

of score? I think 98. You score more than six. Sixers. Way more than sixers. I scored more than sixers. What? It doesn't matter. Do you score more than the Celtics? No. No. Okay. No. You scored somewhere

Zack's fever at the Super Bowl? Probably right around there. I'm just glad your family's good.

“Yeah. They're not. It's a whole the home front's disaster. I want to abandon my family.”

I don't know. Ready Lockwood coming back? Back to what? Internal. It's internal. This is an external show. I'm going to counseling. We sold. We sold lefty packs. I know. You can't just go back. What are you going to do? I didn't say it was. There's nothing. That was the lefty. No one to hear about yours. No one else. No. Yes. There are people who care. Everyone who cares about this, please tweet it. Hey, tell us your score. As big cat is your overbearing father. I'm your

crunchy granola mom. I want you to know that we love you. Whatever. Whatever side you choose to be. But I'd like to know some consistency so I can know how to best support you. I'm having on your education issues. I don't know. What do you mean you're lefty? I don't know what I identify. Are you curious? What's the fuck do you mean you're lefty? You're right. I'm having a lot of thoughts

upstairs. Well, listen, feelings are never wrong here. I know. I just

steps down. It doesn't the draft. Okay. I choose one. Well, let's choose one. Lefty. Okay. There we go. Right for right now. Yeah. Man. It's problem. It's a problem. Okay. Let's have no sun.

Max, I don't think the six are going to win that series. No, I don't think so. Yeah, I don't think so. I don't think so. I don't think so. It beats back though. Yeah, he was the only one to show it up.

8-in to Drummond's time. Yeah, sure. Hank over. Yeah, it's over. I mean Friday night was was a lot

“more of a sweat than, you know, it should have been. Yeah, six was played hard. I think NB coming back”

actually, like, saved the series, the Celtics. Oh, really? Oh, what do you mean? I mean, he came back and it was a waxing. I don't know that he had a lot to do with the fact that Peyton Preacher just couldn't miss. Yeah, true. I mean, again, if you lived by a three-dot by a three? I think, yeah, Peyton Preacher, if NBA quarters were six seconds long, he would be better than Michael Jordan. He would be the best player that's ever played basketball.

Yeah, the other note from Friday night, I know it's great. Nice guy. And I've talked, I've actually, like, we've talked about his calls on on the show before, like, possibly with the hornets. Yeah, Eric Collins was was. Yeah, brutal. Yeah, brutal. I didn't, I didn't realize who it was. We were, me and Max were watching, and I just kept talking about how bad this guy was, and then I looked it up, and it was like, oh, it's just the hornets guy. Usually, like,

I've only really seen, like, the highlight of these stuff. It's like, oh, yeah, it's a great. It was bad. What did you think about, um, yeah, I, I don't think that was a such, like,

“I think there should have been a lower third being, like, hey, this is the hornets guy. Yeah.”

Like, hey, just to everyone knows the guy who does the viral hornets, but it's good when it's, like, your hometown announcer or your hometown team, which is like a neutral broadcast. But I was thinking about it too. We, it's good because we've heard just clips of it. Like, the best clips we see, and then we're like, this is awesome. And then for a playoff game, you're like, what is this? Yeah. It's like, you hear about players talk about the game being a different speed in the playoffs. He had playoff

speed on his voice. Yeah. He needed just like, take like 50% more quailudes before announcing. Hank, do you have any comment on the Celtics 30 play, hitting Paul George directly in his penis? Mm-hmm. I'm trying to play off penis. No, I mean, that didn't even get a flagrant. James Harden once got kicked out of a game for doing that. Wow. Wow. Wow. And what team was James Harden on when he was six years old? Wow. Wow.

Wow. Sounds like the world's out of the game. You got to hear Hank. I mean, they reviewed the play,

reviewed it. Like the refs were they were getting off on it. Yeah, common foul happens. I would not say

comment. That's basketball. Speak, you're not a rough. Speaking of Friday, I am a rough. Yeah, speaking of Friday night, LeBron, what he did on Friday was pretty insane. That the three to take them into overtime. They're playing right now, but the three to take them into overtime. I mean, throwing an alley up to your son in the playoffs is, that's cool. Like, there's nothing you can say about that. That's, that's an awesome thing that he got to do. Well, you there's one thing

you could say, but I'm not going to hate. Brody should have dumped it. Yeah, I was going to say that's

“not an alley you. Well, that's a pass. I think it's an alley you. I get it, but it's still,”

let's see. He should have come see this cool alley you. You're expecting a dunk. I'm an if it's father son. I get it. And I'm not hating because it is a very cool moment. It's an unreal moment.

All the like stats are like LeBron's first playoff game and it's just Bronny is a one-year-old.

He hit the whole thing. He just someone put it perfectly. He's like LeBron literally made a teammate to throw passes to. He made him. And it's crazy. He's the fact he's doing it at 41 is just absolutely nuts. The rockets were favorites in this series. And LeBron with no Luca, it just defies all logic and he just keeps doing it. And it's, it's nuts. There's nothing you could say other than LeBron is unreal to watch and like everyone should actually enjoy it

because you don't know if this might be the last. I, I do agree that he should dunked it, but I still, that's one of the coolest things that ever happened in the NBA. Yeah. I mean, I don't even have a laugh game. Like, I love laughing at LeBron James. He's one of the best

basketball players of all time, but I love it when he does his goofy shit. Yeah. And his,

he's funny to laugh at. This was objectively like very much. That's pretty much so. His son, yeah, and he made his son get drafted by his team. That part was a little bit bullshit. But you can't say anything when he's in the playoffs and he's winning games and he's throwing out of you. And he also got the steel, then the three-pointer to take it into overtime and win it overtime. It was just insane. Yeah. The whole thing all the time collapsed. The, I mean,

the rock, it's like the, the email was just through, like that was one of the most brutal press

“conferences ever after. He just threw him on in the bus. I think it was like the second time ever”

that a team in loss when they were up six with 30 seconds off to the NBA. I think the other one was the was Albert last year against the next in the playoffs. Yeah. And what is going on with Kevin to Red? Don't know. He just didn't show up to game three. He's there right now. He's there right now. He is there right now. He's at the, he's on there. I mean, this is, listen, we've gone back and for we've, we've, we've said some things about Kevin Rip, but I think we've also defended him at times.

This is a sad way for him to go out. Like this rockets team, not showing up for your team when you're, when you're injured in the playoffs. It's just, and as he, has, has a, has a Kevin rant team one a playoff series since 2021. I don't think so. That that was obviously when he almost to foot. He almost took the nets to the NBA finals. Yeah. The foot gets one since 2019. Yeah. That would be that that would be that season. Yeah. And then because the next year it was the reverse

“whopping, right? The next year was the reverse whopping when he's up next. Then yeah, it's been bad.”

Then the sun's Kevin Durant was bad. It's not the conversations, our comfortable conversations. Well, he ever went to ring. He, good thing is he does not care about his legacy and what people online say about it. No. I mean, he's got a, yeah, I'd like to see him win a championship before your tires. I'm not sure that he's going to have this good thing is this won't bother Kevin Durant for the next 40 years. Well, he sits online. What do you think he's going to do when

he retires sit on? You think he's just going to, he's going to continue to be as online. Like, maybe, maybe more. But maybe not because I feel like, gradually, the, the longer he is out of the game, the less people will be talking about Kevin Durant. And so the less reason he'll have to be online to read all the shit people are saying. Yeah. But then all it takes is like one top five player to go join a super team and it will just be Kevin Durant. Then of course, again, the

bad signal will go off and be like, I have to get to my burners. Right. And then the crazy thing will be like Kevin Durant will probably root against that guy to win. Yeah. And then if he does, he'll get mad at people for not saying enough that he's ring chasing. Yeah. Because Kevin Durant had to do with all that stuff. Yeah. Also, they just need to see even Adams back. Yeah. See, see even Adams makes us a much different team. Hey, isn't it pretty crazy that when Ema Edoca

did the thing that he did that we still don't really know what he did? The, the Celtics actually won big done. That's crazy. Yeah. Like that was it. That was a coach at the time who was considered the one of the top, you know, five coaches of the NBA had remade the Celtics, had taken to the finals. He does the thing that again, we don't know what he did. But he did something bad.

people knew who he was, but not like like, oh, this guy isn't very good. And now you would take

“Joe Mozilla a thousand times over a thousand times, but especially Ema Edoca. Yeah. Because the”

rockets are, are a game away for me. It might be when you're listening, it might have already been eliminated of having decent regular seasons, good regular seasons, even last year, and then being eliminated right away. And the way he was talking to the press conference was crazy. Yeah. He

basically was just like, yeah, young guys couldn't handle the pressure. They weren't ready for

their bad. And it's like, that's that's your job. Yeah. That is quite literally your job. Speak out what you're saying is there was a, there was a coach for Boston. And he got his team all the way to the finals. They didn't win. And then something happened. I did personally. And then he got it fired. I did say that. And then the next guy came in was much better. I did say that. That's interesting. Just something to think about. It is something to think about. But yeah, I'm pretty happy with

what you said. I ended up for us. Something to think about. Let's give him something to think about. Think about it. Okay. You're thinking about it right now. I am thinking about it. Yeah. I'm happy that we got it up with Joe and Zula. So you could end up with Josh McDaniels. He's a great coach. Yeah. Those things aren't those things aren't those things. What are you talking about? He's a guy that's been hired like two different franchises were like, let's get this guy

and almost a third the coach. Yeah. Yeah. He basically has been on that coach three times. If Jim

Jim, or say he didn't take a massive shit in his house, he would have been the coach. I like Josh McDaniels a lot. So he's a good coach. Okay. Hank statement on the Patriots coaching. I like Josh McDaniels a lot. He's a good coach. On the current Patriots coaching situation. Yes. I like my job. But I'll die for variable. Okay. Okay. You're what? That one's not that part's not going in the quote. No, that's not going in. That'd be a good. That's not going in. That's

going to be a different quote card. I'll die for variable. Sure. Because that won't look bad for other

“reasons. Yeah. To paint how you spell it. That's what you said. I did say that. And you know”

our guys don't know how to spell. No. Yeah. So they might not know to show any on there. I would whatever. So I'd die for variable too. I just shook his eyes like I got it. All right. I need I needed

a I got it. I would have never got it if you didn't do that. We had to spell it out pretty good. Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah. That was New segment. Let's give him some of think about. Okay. Other games. I'm I can't believe it. But you know what? I think I'm allowed to do this because 10 days ago the Orlando magic lost to the G league Celtics with a game that had consequences for them. And now they're sitting here as the eight seed up to one on the pistons. I think I'm just a believer in the magic now. I don't I I know I said I wanted them out. I might they might win it all. You believe again.

They might win it all. They got healthy. They never they weren't healthy all year. Yeah. Very day. Desmond Bane did the reason why you brought in Desmond Bane was four Saturdays, gamey with seven for nine from three. They have scoring options. Frons was awesome. And it is just a brutal matchup for the pistons. Like this might this is where I'm at because I'm like a shepherd of future on the magic. I don't think the magic going to win the

NBA title. I don't think they're going to go to the NBA finals. I do think they're going to beat the pistons because the pistons don't have like the magic are just bigger and stronger and especially guard. Like Kate Cunningham doesn't have anyone smaller to pick on. It's just a bad matchup. Jill and Doran is is you can't play them right now. Like he just can't

“do anything. I yeah the magic I'm a magic I'm I'm all in on the magic right now. I think that the”

I think pistons are still going to pull it off. I don't know, dude. It's two to one. It's a lot of basketball matchup is very bad for the pistons because they just don't have enough scoring. And the magic are a team that can match the pistons in terms of size and toughness. So I just think matchup wise is just very different. I think that's a that's a very good description of what happened on Saturday. Yeah. That's very good. But I don't think that's going to happen every night.

Yeah. Like this was pistons versus the the nicks. Kate Cunningham would be roasting jail and bronzer and switches and everything. He would just be going after him. But you can't do that against sucks. You can't do like in parallel like they got they just got guys. I don't know. I think you could do it against sucks. Not they didn't do it on Saturday again. But I defend her. But I do think that you could do it against sucks. The I did break my vow to the podcast that I was not going to watch

any of the Thunder Sons game. I actually did in fact because Saturday was a picture perfect day and I opened up the rooftop in my house. So I had the TV on and it happened to coincide with when the game was on. So I was like I guess I'm going to watch some of this. I did watch so as apologies.

I'm talking great like MVP best player in the world. Good 15 for 18 from the from the field. Just couldn't miss. And yeah, this series is over. But I did I actually was happy. I tuned in because I got CSGA be awesome. I stood by my vows and did not watch this game. But SGA was awesome. SGA is

always awesome. Yeah. He's we we should remind people that he's he's the best player in the world.

He missed four shots with the ball. Including free choice. Yeah, pretty crazy. Yeah, memes. Congrats. Season saved. Season saved. That's that's a team I believe in. Yeah. The nicks were it was it was crazy because in a round one game. I don't know if you felt this means but I would say it to myself as the game came on. I was like this is kind of just the entire iteration of this nicks team is at stake tonight. Yeah. Like if they lose this game, they probably lose the series and then you just

got to trade everyone. Yeah. No, absolutely. But my guy cat can't. Can't remember. He's the biggest most skilled guy out there. It was just like, yeah, bigger than everyone. And I'm better than everyone. Yeah, they just triple double. They just got to take care of business two more times.

And then we're on to we're on to Boston. So if you lose in the second round, is that a failure of a

season? No, Boston sells is very good team. But you need them last. Well, you're built to beat then that would be, we are built to beat this. So that would be a regret. We, I take, we got to take care of the Hawks. I can't, I can't begin. Put down my talking about that. I'm talking about if you don't beat the Celtics and if you lose, you just said if you lose to the Hawks and the first round failure, capital F failure, right? Capital F failure, but winner of that series is going

to be one of the finals. Okay. So if, but then if you don't beat the Celtics, would that be a failure of a season because they're built specifically to beat them and you beat them last year? There's no failure. And in your words, they're worse. No, there's no failure in sports. They're in Glockwood. He said that? Oh, yeah. You got to said that, I thought. Yeah, but then Hank doubled down. So you would not consider that a failure losing to Hank? I would. That's a very good team. I

“think you have to hold yourself to a higher standard. I don't like that. I don't like that you're”

not cocky anymore. I like when you were Connor for the first time. I guess we got to get out. We

got to get out of the first round. You got to get out of the first round. You're coming. You're going to come so bad. But we, we got to focus on the Hawks. You got to focus on the Hawks. Do you have anything to say about Ben Stiller tweeting? Got it done after. Ben Stiller just wants to tweet about the next. And every single time he just gets ratio. Oh, and some of the people that were applying to him were, they were so mad. So they were, he tweeted got it done around the same time that

there was the assassination attempt at the White House Correspondence Center. And everyone was like, what do you mean by got it done? Like, he just got all political Twitter. It was so clear talking about the mix. Right. Now, did John Rossine have a tweet? Oh, I don't know. We got to go see a tweet about it. I'm sure. I do have, I'm really going to stick to sports. I want to know what the trick was that it was the mentalist was doing at the time. Also, I mean, I'm also what's that the trick

that he was doing. But the comments been said, I'm sure, but O's has to retire. Why? How do you

“not see that coming? But that's what I'm saying. Maybe that was part of the trick. But you got to know”

that there's a assassination attempt coming. The one guy you want next to you when your life is on the line about to be, you know, threatened is O's the mentalist. But what if that was part of the illusion? I'm just saying like, he knows everything. He knows like, first girl you kissed. He knew my pin number. He knew everything. How do you not be like, hey, dude, there's someone coming down the hallway for you. But can you imagine if like, at the end of this guy's man, a festo,

you scroll to the last page. And it's the card that Donald Trump thought of. Yeah, magic trick. It's the Super Bowl winner for next year. Yeah, that's what we need. We need to wait for all the facts to come out. So he's either a complete fraud or it's the greatest illusion that he's ever done. Yes. Yes. Oh, he's come on the program to discuss. Congrats. Oh, memes. Good job. And then the the timber rolls, the the the T dobs. When the nuggets are so sad. But what the real

story is that the timber rolls continue to be the most cursed. It's been started to continue to be the most cursed city. The timber rolls are cursed. Anthony Edwards, hypercens his knee. He even chends out tears the killies. And then it was the IO show who was so fucking good. Yeah, IO scored 43. And I think he missed. I think he missed four shots as well. I was insane. Fashion, he couldn't believe it. That it was. Five, five, three, 13 for 17 from the field. And listen, I know there's a lot of people

“like, hey, I can't believe the bull is traded them. You got to remember that we got four second round”

picks for them, which if I do my math right, IO was the second round pick. So we got four

Here is here's my my big takeaway from this. Dante de Vincenzo tours, tours Achilles, right? Yeah. So did Jason Tatum, so did Haliburton, so did Dame. Do you know what the common thread between those four guys is? I do because I saw a tweet, but I'll let you say it. They all wear the number zero. Yeah. And it's all happened like the last year and a half. So you got a watch out. Look out for Maxi. What's on your shirt right now, PFT? Uh oh.

This is the letter. Oh, for here for Oso's. Look at the zero. This is a walks carefully dude. This is O for Oso's. Kind of. But you're making a great point out. I was not thinking about that. Fortunately, I'm healthy as a horse. Yeah. So 100%. So we're good to go. Fucking fine. We're doing great over here, guys. I'm happy for Oso. I'm happy for Oso's sick.

“Yeah. You just need to get you need to get out of the plane and into the playoffs and he became a”

killer. But with Dante and and aunt out, oh, they got to do his one more more. And right now, I think they're they're still favorites to win the series, but like shockingly low favorites, considering it's a three one three one series or not. I think it's a lot minus 145. I might take it. I I took the temperal wolves. Yeah. I mean, I bet I bet. Oh, yes, or mess, right. Nuggets are a mess. I bet on the temperal of the last night that minus 145 to win the series. Just you just got to win one more.

Also, this is what did if we not learn anything that the temperal wolves, this is the third year in a row

that they get into the playoffs in the first round. They are significant underdogs. And then they beat the first like soundly. They win the first round. Remember they did it again. Yeah. The who is it last year? Lakers last year, sons of year before. That was the sweep, Katie sons. This is what the Nuggets do.

“I mean, the whip with the the temperals do. I don't know what's going on with the O'Citch. I will say,”

I don't know how I'm going to say this respectfully. He looked bitch man. Yeah, he was a bitch. That was a pitch move by him. That was a pitch move. He just didn't do anything. Here's okay. So for anyone who missed it, the game's over. And Mike Conley, Mike Conley, by the way, very funny after the game. He was like, I knew right away that I screwed up when I threw him that pass. He's like, you could see me put my head down. throws a pass to Jade McDaniels with five seconds left. And Jade McDaniels goes and

takes a layup, which is unspoken rule. Not supposed to do. The temperals were up by 14 at the time. They ended up winning by 16. You could sprint down the court, gets in his face. Dude, here's my biggest problem with this. If it's an unspoken rule that you're not supposed to do that, Jamal Murray chuck to three with eight seconds left. When he didn't have to, when the clock was expired, if Jamal Murray just does, if he just runs out the clock, then there's no

problem. So I don't know why you can say it's works one way. Yeah, it's just his pissed off. He's mad that they lost. Here that somebody stole his underwear. He's taking out the nearest guy to him. Yeah, he ran down and then it got to a point where he could have done something and then just kind of just ran down. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. But you can't tell it's kind of got him.

“Jade McDaniels, icyvert, yoke, it's Pickensburg. Yeah, the press. That's what happened. It was a”

full core press. It looks like there's going to be another press. Oh, it looks like there's going to be another. All right, save that. We'll use it for who's back. Maximum to go to you for who's back. And I want all the details on the next press. I might go. I might fly in for the next plugin. Rudy, go bare, putting himself in the middle of this. And somehow, I think Rudy, go bare, came off looking like more of a bitch, even than yoke. So let, let Jade McDaniels handle it.

Jade McDaniels was handling it really well. Yeah, but it's just the nuggets look bad. And they yoke it's like he can't. They're basically trying to make him a shooter and he's not shooting well. Didn't hit a three again. And the timberals are awesome. Like they're just fun to watch.

And it's just sucks that they got, they won this game to go up three, one incredible night in Minnesota.

Oh, yeah, but two of your best players get injured. One of them out for a year plus. Yeah, so it sounds like, well, maybe not a year plus. Yeah, 10 came back. Sure. But with, so with with ant, it looks like he'll be out for a couple weeks minimum. That looks so nasty. It did. It was one of those things where you thought like PCL, MCL, but they said no ligament damage, just like a bone bruise from a hyper extension. And then afterwards, I don't know what happened with yoke it's in the

underwear. Did you see that story? Yeah. So after the game, he said that someone stole his underwear, then they retracted that report and said that the underwear had been found. It might be like, this is his just a small at moment. Yeah, I don't know, he might have just been so mad that he

misplaced his pants. We've all been there before. And but then he went to the media first about it

like did they have a full, like was there a search party looking for his underwear in the locker room? I don't know. But it was a story that I got put out. They knew it would make a big splash. And then like immediately retracted what happened? I just hate that I have to call yoke a bitch. But we got to call like we see it. Right? He what he did. That was great. I love yoke. Also I found out nuggets fans don't really like the if you like hey, he just I thought when I initially

saw it, I was like yoke just wants to go home. But he wants to get suspended just go home. Well, if you wanted to get suspended, he could have done that. He could have like thrown

“thrown a punch. Yeah. So nobody got suspended just finds which I think is what everybody's looking for.”

We don't want to see him. I fucking hate it. I love yoke. It's put man. He'll figure it out. You just can't there's really no way to end up, especially in today's like in 2026, you can't you can't quote unsp-unwritten rules and look good. If you get aggressive about an

unwritten rule, you're going to pretty much always look like a loser because you almost all the time

you're mad because you're losing. And just you can't there's nothing. Maybe 30 years ago because then it would have been a real fight. And but like yeah, you don't do that to another man. On baseball. But today you can't do that. And handle it. Make a guy wear one of the ribs. Right. And then you can do that. Yeah. When someone when a pitcher gets mad about a bat flip, everyone universally now is like, hey, don't come up home run. Yeah. We've kind of

course corrected on unwritten rules being like, you know who actually is the loser here? The guy who's losing. There's someone written rules that I guess kind of makes sense. But it's almost always you're losing the game. Yeah. And the other team does something. And then you're like, you can't do that. Well, you can't. Don't lose the game. What if you're up three scores in football

“and you line up for a meal and then throw a Hail Mary for a fourth score? Who would do that?”

I'm just saying there are some unwritten rules that are like, who know people should know and never

did that. I'm just saying. Who did that? I'm never happy. I'm trying to, I'm trying to figure out how to get myself into it. Yeah. I'm trying to say that would try to get us. Yeah, I'm trying to get you. That would piss you off. Well, the James Winston, they were inside the five. Yeah. Hail Mary. Hail Mary would piss you off. I'm trying to think of an unwritten rule that would piss that would piss you off. Yeah, but still even after that, the coach would be like, you can't do that, but don't lose.

It pissed me off in traffic when people don't obey the unwritten rule of the zipper system. We mean like everyone going all today. Yeah. Yeah. I don't like it when people try to take advantage of that. Yeah, when someone speeds past everyone. Yeah, you use the shoulder. Yeah, that is bullshit.

But that's like, I never actually be a real rule. No, I don't. I think that's a real. No, the

shoulder is, but there's sometimes there's like a long line for an exit. Right. And then someone will just go, but just do what I'm saying, but not in the shoulder, like the leg going the left lane,

“go all the way down. I still take you to pull over for that. No, I think you might be able to definitely”

cop could just be like, on route rules. Yes. All right. So now we're back in and on a couple of unwritten rules. All right. Fine. But for the legitimate, the most part, most unwritten rules are someone loses in his upset they're losing. And then says you're a bad spot. Unwritten rules are for literally baseball, not for professional sports. Oh, they're what I saw major major unwritten rule violation the other day, which I think we should actually correct and write rules. We need

to write down some of the unwritten rules. Okay. The, the little league team, we're all the guys had go pros on their on their helmets. Okay. And the guys steps up to the plate crushes a monster dog, smashes the bat on the ground and starts running around the bases and like pretty much like doing cartwheels. Yeah. And like his teammates have like the boombox going, did you see this this clip? I didn't know what to watch. So the whole team, they've got go pros. Yes, see, this is

different though because these are kids. Yeah. I actually do think unwritten rules in sportsmanship should matter for kids. I think when you're a professional athlete, there is no such thing as sportsmanship. The parents. Yeah. You know, these parents saw. So I, I actually got like the berry ponds, you know, all the gear. Yeah. And then these dogs. Oh, yeah. So I, I didn't hate this that much until I noticed that there weren't go pros on their helmets. No, this is brutal. That sucks.

This is that radicalized. Yeah. For kids, I, you got to, you got to teach them how to play the right way. Yeah. So that someday some of them might be pros where they don't have to worry about on regular. You want to go pro and don't wear one. Um, it's a great one. Strong, strong, real strong. Wendy's back. So that series is over. Wendy's so back. So back. So it calm and control. Yep. And then

He had said 27 to 12 and 7 blocks dominant performance out of Wendy. And then the calves, the calves wrapped their series is, uh, it's the mid off. It's a total mid off. I think the, the raptors won the game shooting 32% from the field. Also, James Harden, he's, he's done like he doesn't want to do this anymore. He's gone. You think? Yeah. But no, but usually would take at least till game six. Game, game four, you start to see the cracks. No, but it started the, the cracks are game three game five.

He might bounce back a little bit. Then games six. He can truly pan a masterpiece with it. So yeah, but you're right, when it comes to shooting, it was bad Cleveland missed, uh, Cleveland missed

“33 pointers. Yeah, that clown shot 37%. So that's how you lose a game when the opponent shoots”

and Toronto missed 26 three pointers. So that is Hank, you're the math guy, 30 plus 26, 56, or 56 missed three pointers in the game. But yeah, James Harden went, game one, eight made field goals, four turnovers, game two, nine made field goals, five turnovers. And then the last two games he has more turnovers and made field goals, game three, five made field goals, eight turnovers, game four, six made field goals, seven turnovers. Yeah. So it's over. He doesn't want

to do this anymore. They're done. But this is such a mid off. I mean, the fact that I think it was the worst shooting performance in the three-point era that has ever won a playoff game. Is it really? I think I saw that. So Harden now. Four for 30 from three. Yeah. Harden now has 44 of those games that you talked about, big cast. Yeah. Where he's got more turnovers than field goals. Yeah. Pretty crazy. Yeah. And one other thing with the blazer spurs series,

that's two games a row where they've blown at least 15 point leads in the second half. Yeah. Yeah.

It's uh, the blazer spurs are saying. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. They were up. The blazers had a big second quarter

“and they just got smoked in the third and fourth. Listen, you need to have t-shirts to win.”

Got to have the t-shirts to win. Hawks. I bet the nicks. The minute I saw the Hawks were doing rally towels. Yeah. Got to have the nicks. Got to have full shirt for that. I think I saw a lot of people that seem to have coordinated themselves. I like that. Like wearing their they like send out a mass email. Do I watch shirts? Be like, hey guys, just so you know, we're all wearing a rips city t-shirts today. Love that. And then it was like a noble,

it's noble effort. But how big can that email thread possibly get? It was probably like 12 percent of the people that were wearing that same shirt. Yeah. But still like, I appreciate the organization from. They're trying to do it. Yeah. Um, hey, do you for who's back the week? Do you have your baseball team? Yeah. Okay. So I'm going to talk about it there. Um, and we're going to talk

all hockey with Ryan Whitney in a second. Before we do that, who's back the week? Twisted

T's are freshing hard ice tea made with real brewed tea and five percent alcohol. Twisted sees the perfect drink to keep the good times going all day and all season long with your hang out at a friend's house catching a game with the stadium or at the bar or day drinking with friends. Twisted T is there to turn your day up and not to make a good time a great time. Grab a refreshing Twisted T today. We'd love the original the half and half the peach. Twisted T go get it today.

Twisted T Hank. Who's back the week? Yeah. My who's back the week is, uh, just I guess not really the red socks. They fired five of their coaches, uh, just send them on a plain home, Alex Corra, hitting coach, third base coach, Jason Baratech, Red Sox legend. He wasn't, he wasn't fired. He was, he was kidnapped. He was kidnapped. Did you not see that tweet? No. It seemed like a kidnapping.

“It was like, Jason Baratech has not been, uh, fired. He's been reassigned and we will update. Where?”

Like, he let him go. Dude, what are you doing? Yeah. What is it? What is reassigning? I mean, he's like, we're going to invent a job from. Yeah. Yeah. Reassign to a new role than the organization. A new role that doesn't exist yet, right? Which is likely reflection of his standing as former Red Sox captain, two time well through his chips. Yeah, that just, yeah, it's kind of loose. Just let him go. He's the special envoy. All his friends just got fired. Special envoy

for the shield of the Americas, Jason Baratech. They're 10 and seven. They're, they're terrible. They're 10 and 17. They lost 17 to one the other day. The Orioles ran out of fireworks, which is like, oh, they're saying embarrassing as, as it gets for a baseball team when they had to put up on the, on the scoreboard, like, no more fireworks after home runs were out of pyro. I would say embarrassing also for the Orioles. I don't know. You can't really account, like if you're the pyro department,

it's like, what, you know, you've got, you've always got to have more. I guess, yeah, it's a lot of pyro.

Like, we make fun of Tom Dunton for not getting the T-shirts, like Rubinstein, the owner of the Orioles. He's fucking loaded. He owns the Declaration of Independence. Maybe put a little extra in the budget line for fireworks, too. Mm-hmm. Yeah, they probably have to reassess after that.

Mm-hmm. Yeah. John Henry owns it. They all the, like, BBC and English outlets,

made it seem like they fired the Liverpool coaches, because there's like Liverpool owner, sacks five coaches, and like, shocking. Like, they were, they were painting it for people to shit on John Henry or something. I appreciate it. I don't, I just can't understand. He's got money, right? They're cheap. He doesn't care. He's got money. They're spending it on other franchises.

“And then to sleep Liverpool, that's what, like, the Liverpool and Boston families, they all hate”

them, too. Like, they did, they did, like, a protest, or like, they were all kind of wearing, like, sell the team shirts, because they're raising the prices there. Like, he's just, all he cares about as money. They, I saw a score of post. He just buys teams that their fans are super loyal. Yeah. Well, I mean, the red sauce that, like, he was there in there from the beginning. But then, once they started buying all the other teams, they just don't care about the red sauce or winning

for any of their teams. Um, what else is your Liverpool? And I, I think a couple other ones. I saw a couple of posts raising on a racing team. That's got to hurt, would if the racing team was just awesome. That would hurt. He was the, the penguins. Oh, yeah. He just on the RFK racing. It's when you will run over Barron. You put in the back your van and take him to Central Park. How are they doing? You've all teamed TGL. I don't know.

“I think they were, they made to the playoffs. Okay. Okay. Oh, yeah. He owns the Boston Globe.”

Yeah. He owns everything. So does the Boston Globe report critically on them? No. How's the dumb question? Yeah. Very dumb question. Well, he's smart. Yeah, they're their disaster. That's like a super villain shit where you're like, I'm going to buy,

I'm going to buy the local paper, so they never say anything. But everyone does that now. Yeah.

So he's oh, yeah. The, um, do you know the last time that a team had, uh, fired their manager after winning a game by 16 plus runs? Because that was a crazy thing. They won 17 to one, right? Or something like that? Uh, 18 87. That's a lot. It's been when the, when the, the mats beat the spiders, the Cleveland spiders. You're making history. Yeah. It's tough. I mean, uh, it's like the, the, the, the, they just sent him on a plane. They got him like a private plane to go home. Like,

they should get out of here. How's nice of him? Yeah. Mm. Do you see that quote from Bradford from an anonymous, uh, Red Sox alumni? Is your GM? What is he? He said woke up to a text from a former Red Sox player who's some of the Saturdays moves. It's like, shitting your pants and changing your shirt. Yeah. Brudging to the GM. Brudging to the GM. Brudging to GM. Brudging to GM. Brudging to GM. Brudging to GM. Brudging to GM. Brudging to GM. Brudging to GM. But nothing's going to check if they're still

“in charge of anything's going to change. That's what he's saying. Yeah. Right. The stain runs deep.”

Mm-hmm. But I guess it's something, right? No. I, like, I, until they're out, like nothing's going to change. I saw Hogdale right afterwards celebrating. He was like, this is a win. But I get a lot of my news from our good friend, Jared Corobis. Does any, he said, Alex Corz, great. He loves the Alex Corz, right? Yeah. He was a good, good manager. Wasn't he, didn't he come, didn't he get fired and then come back? Yeah. Oh, no. Do you get

spending for you? Yeah, from the, uh, the, I felt that was, yeah, the battering. No, though. I think he was Astros and Red Sox. Then, no, he got, he was out for a year and then came back. Yeah. Because of, was the Apple watching? He was, he coached the Red Sox after that. He was the Texans, like Ben's coach, whatever, when that all happened. And then he asked for Red Sox after. Yeah. Yeah. The Astros Ben's coach showing that. Yeah. Okay.

Your who's back. PFT. Uh, my who's back of the week is Papa John. Remember to the Papa? Yeah. He's back. Louisville's bringing him back. They said, sorry, Papa, sorry to sideline the old these years. We could, we could use your money.

And I always kind of a thing for us now. So, uh, welcome back. And they kind of apologize to them,

which is kind of funny. Uh, they just basically said, we recognize that decisions made years ago were based on the information available at the time. But we have a greater perspective of the facts that have emerged since then considering those developments, you have now acknowledges that the university will approach the situation differently based on our current understanding and believe the best path forward is to unite in our shared commitment to supporting U of L.

So Papa John, the mega booster is back because of an IL. I love that. Good for him. Good for Papa. He served his time. Yeah. Uh, he's one of the weirdest sounding guys that you'll ever hang out with. In my experience, I, uh, I met him at the Super Bowl about like 10 years ago. I met him with something as well. And I stood next to him and we took a picture together, uh, holding up a jersey.

Yeah, he's just oily and just wet. I, I can do an impression of him. Like, if you see, if you'd like, kind of, actually kind of, he, this is what Papa John, this is what sounds like to stand next to Papa John. Anyways, he makes pretty decent pizza, I guess. Um, so I'm glad for the university level. Um, so Papa's back. And then top guns back. They're doing top gun three. Top three is now officially

entered into production. And I am putting on a full court press to try to get like one second of

“screen time and as an extra. I think I can do what if you had to go and a plan for it. Yeah,”

this guy who's not has nothing to do with planes. I, doesn't matter. Okay. Like one second of screen time. Maybe a guy, even a guy that like doesn't know shit about planes and get school. Well, that, yeah, he wouldn't have to act. I wouldn't have to act. They could actually just like filming me walking out of the runway and I'd miss identify something. Do you ever figure out that plane that you were doing? Yeah, dude. I did. I did after like 15 seconds. It was an AC 130.

You just staring at a plane, getting so angry that he couldn't figure it out. Yeah, I'm Friday. And then Max asked me what it was. And I couldn't remember what it was because I thought it was a

C3 and it was an AC 130. And the guy that was working at the airport had to explain to me what it was.

And then I was like, oh, yeah, I actually own an entire game that is doing nothing but simulating flying in an AC 130. You did the white socks Dave doesn't trivia move. I was going to say that. I was, no, but I literally had that answer. I wasn't going to say that. I didn't, I, I did the opposite of that. I acknowledged how bad of an error it was and how stupid I am for not getting it. I just remember just, I, I watched you just stand there staring at a plane. I just walked away. I was like,

this might take a while. Yeah, I was so excited. Max, it was like, because I could tell that you didn't know, because I wouldn't say a magic iPostor is crossing his eyes trying to figure it out. Well, normally, PFT, it's his favorite thing of just like a plane is around. And then he'll just go like,

247 Raptor right now, right there. None of us cared none of us asked to 40. So he was just not

a plane fucking idiot. So he was just looking at this one. I'm like, he hasn't said what this is yet. He definitely doesn't know. Yeah, but then later on, I spot an F 18 in your face and you can't

“have an F 18. That's what I mean. Yeah. I fuck this one up. But anyways, Top Gun 3's happening.”

Jerio Conno was in a movie with Jerry Brockon on my Jerry Brockon was producing it. I need to ask Jerry to get me set up with something in Top Gun 3. Something. Please, Jerry. We can do this together. All right. My who's back is Fernando Mendoza because he has been on the Raiders for one day and he dropped a fucking. So he code switch to the Raiders. I was shocked. He said Raiders, let's fucking go. It spends one day with Max Ross. He's just swearing everywhere. That sounds like Tom Brady

got to him. Yeah. I mean, was he was he put was he was the flipping thing just to get drafted one overall? I don't know me. He just wanted to hang out with Kurt Cousins. Yeah, it was shocking to hear him say that. Also, who's back his anti-attalion discrimination because I attack Max in this, but there's a gentleman. I don't know if it's this gentleman, but Theresa tweeted this, a guy got banned or it was told at the White Sox game that he is not allowed to hold up the Italian flag during the

game. No way. Yeah. When was Max? We got to do something about this. I don't know. I like this guy. I do too. Max took what I showed it to Max. Max just goes, that's a good looking Italian man. When was that? He's just strong Italian. He is a strong Italian. Uh, the tweet was today. Yeah, I think it was today. Yeah. Disgusting. Disgusting. What was the

“pope say about that? That's what I'd like to know. Great question. Great question. Really”

great question. I'd like to know what the pope would say. Uh-huh. Come on part of my take to discuss pope. Uh-huh. Zach. My who's back the week this week is going to be people who think speeds more impressive than they were skating because we did get the two fastest marathon times of all time of the day. What's this I hear about the shoes? The shoes. The shoes. Fashioned and you could run 100. We talking carbon plates in the shoes? Yeah. Exactly. The carbon plates super

shoe. Yeah. Hearing is the thing, right? So what is that? The carbon plate is returned so much energy on the bounce to like a lot of the shoes are getting banned and then they make some of them make them into races and immediately get taken out. So two guys in the same race. Yeah. Same race today. One of the gentlemen so far. 34 mile pace for 26 miles is so fucking insane. It's not that impressive. That's insane. That's insane. How many miles per

hours that? I don't know. Like what's the average those type of questions? One on. Well if it's it's right at two hours and it's 26 miles, probably, right at 13 miles an hour. 13 miles an hour. So that's like that's a full on sprint. Yes. That's what I'm saying. It's a full on sprint for

hundred meter dashes or four hundred meter dashes. That's too much math. That's crazy though.

“If you do a four if you go all the way around the track, like that's going to take you more than”

a minute and eight seconds. So first sub 10 they're doing that. Our marathon over and over and over.

We couldn't do we couldn't do one four hundred meter dash faster than they are doing an entire marathon. When was the first like modern marathon? I'm not talking about the one that that happened at the battle. Like when did we first start running competitive marathons as a like for fun? I don't know but this just maybe thinks is there anyone who like records are meant to be break broken but Roger Bannister really gets a lot of credit for a guy

who probably would have gotten beaten if we had just recorded like I mean how did how did it English guy have the fastest mile in the world? Yeah that's just not come on and we all fucking sucked his dick forever. Yeah like oh you got the mile under four minutes. I feel like we could have gone a lot of other places in the world and found faster miles. Yeah so go but he just gets saw it. I mean we all know his name. We all know Roger Bannister's name.

That guy got lucky as fuck. That's like Bob Cousie was the best basketball player ever. It's great time. It's crazy. Roger Bannister but he didn't even Bob Cousie at least won and be titles. Like could dribble and do cool stuff. Roger Bannister was just could run fast but it really was just the fastest guy in England. His claim to fame is that he like broke the mental barrier. That bit everyone just thought that it was impossible in England.

Right. They had like a global a mass delusion across the entire continent and they were like uh yeah it's impossible to break four or four hours and he was like impossible chips. I think not.

But then the second day. Yeah guys I'll get that guy right now. The second day opened it up. Yeah

his shit gets crushed. You got fucking killed. Imagine how fast he would have ran if he had the shoes. Yeah the carbon plates. It's a good point. Super shoes. We should get some carbon plate superstars. It will make us how much does that cost? About the same speed. Still slow.

“Probably I think makes you a little taller if you have to. I don't need that.”

What else you got Zach? Another piece back could be uh the other themes because they did when the uh CDL minor today. Okay cool. So first they got like two more online tournaments until major three this week. So Zach is Bush. Did Bush compete? Uh no this is uh CDL so it's the professional lead today. Got it. So let me talk steam took it home. They'd be the challenges league right right beneath right underneath the CDL. Got it. Got it. Brotherhood's back family. What if it's

Patrick's? Oh yeah. Well I thought you'd been Duke. They're always back. Uh they won. They

won a PGA Tour Tour tournament map. Patrick's obviously on the PGA Tour. His brothers on the DP World Tour in the race to Dubai. It's like it's a it's a team event so you don't need to be on the PGA Tour. There's like you know there's as long as one of your guys is there's other ways to get in. Could you get in? I don't think I could get in. Uh but since they won the counts as like a regular PGA Tour win. So his brother automatically gets his PGA Tour card and all the signature

events. What was the setup for this? Was it scramble? It's alternate shot. One day four ball which is like best best best ball score between the two of you. One day alternate shot. One day best ball alternate or alternate shot best ball alternate shot best ball. So they're alternating alternate shot this. Yeah got it. Max give it to us. What's going on? Uh it's just that the the penguins didn't get swept. So this year is just going back to Pittsburgh. So Pickinsburg is now saying

if I see Vert goes to the game. He will press him again. Oh I need it. Sir. Second press is just occurred. Did you see the shirts that's Pittsburgh speaking of shirts? Did you see the shirts? The flyers are going to or putting the punk everybody. Yeah everybody. Yeah that's good. Wow. Pickinsburg also

“just. What do you say? What is the minute to go? I think I won the icy lips. He did. He just. Yeah”

he doesn't care though. Yeah he's not thinking about it. He DM me to be like be honest. Who do you think he won the press? Yeah. He's the best. We're trying to like respect. Yeah he wants to know. He just like doing a pull. He's obsessed with whether he won this press. How do you he didn't? I like that he's so obsessed with it. If icy lib doesn't go to the game tomorrow. Yes Pickinsburg won the press. That means Pickinsburg won the press. Yes. Absolutely. But what if icy lib does go?

Pickinsburg will try to press and hopefully not stutter. Yeah. Well it's cold. It's cold in the arena. Don't fucking say that Max. It was fucking cold in the arena. It's a hockey game bro. That's true. It's good. I feel like Pickinsburg is definitely written down his next press. Yeah. Like this is. I mean it's going to be a picture chance again. No, it's going to be memorized. I do something different. He's got you know what he does. He has to do he has to press him about the first press.

Do you like push the show up? People are saying I didn't win the first press. What do you think about that?

But make sure you put your hand on his shoulder and press him about it. I noticed that you haven't been asking

people who won the first press. Unconfident much. Yeah. I did a seven hour space. It's about this pressing.

I need more pressing. I love it so much. It's so stupid. When depressing fucking love. Pressing still. I feel like it started like three years ago. Eli Whitney. Yeah. The gin. Mm-hmm. Like dudes and dudes and used to press each other back in the day. No, now guys dudes are getting press all the time. It's socially acceptable for man to press. Yeah. On another man. And you don't want to get caught in a pressing.

“Mm-hmm. But you have to be ready. You have to press. Got to be one of the worst feelings of the”

world. Mm-hmm. You're just minding your own business, boom. Next thing you know, press. Well, you can get press, but you got to win the press if it does happen. Right. Yeah. And if you go. Yeah. Right. Protect yourself at all times. But you. But it actually goes even more so if you press, you got to make sure that you're confident you're going to win it. Mm-hmm. I got pressed on Saturday. Someone getting pressed. If you get pressed. Mm-hmm. And you lose the pressing.

Well, you didn't expect to get press. So there could be a little bit of like, hey, I wasn't ready. You pressed me out of nowhere. Right. But if you go up and press some guy, and you don't win it, bro. What are you doing? Yeah. And now I see lips going to be prepared for the press. Yeah. I see lips. You go press. Pickensburg. That would be, oh, man. That would be. If he went press him, find, find, pickensburg before you can find you. This is going to be a

cat and neither of these guys. Guys are going to watch a second of this game. No, this is the

archivorship. This is this is Sunsu. This is pressure. And I mean, before he has a chance to press you, they're fine. They're fine. There's way too much of tickets. And they're not going to see a second of this game. There's way too much at stake. Yeah. Way too much. I really hope I see for it. I should,

“I should DM, like, dude, you have to go. I might buy my ticket. What if I bought, I see”

what if you bought both of them tickets? Yes. The same section. Press off. Oh, man. I think the way you should do is buy them. Buy them tickets close to each other. Don't tell them that the other guys got to be in the same section. It's like the parent trap. I'm getting involved. Yeah. Hopefully, I get a, hopefully, I get a response. I'm going to ask them. Are you going? What should I say?

Are you going to game five? Dude, can't wait to see what you do with this press to see another press.

Are you saying that the pickensburg are I see? I see for it. Oh, no, I don't know that. I see for it. No, I'm going to ask to do the press. Yeah. I'm saying, are you going to game five? Are you ready for the press? Are you, are you prepared for the press? I don't know. Swivel for a repress. Call a big plan. Repress, big plan. Repress? No, that's, is that a repress? Press round two. Prep for a press round two big plan. You got to get ready for the press break. Continue his press.

“Round two. I feel like we got to talk icy live into into attending. I think you got to talk”

pigginsburg. Okay. You got to DM hit. Okay. And just be like, bro, I'll get ready. I'm here in reverse and icy vert might be there. Okay. I'll be like, and he's calling himself big plan. Okay. It's a big plan. Just saw this. Oh my God. My ass is going to end up meeting up and being like, fuck those losers on part of my take. We're, we're getting a common enemy. My bad. This is this message. No, you, no, be like, my bad. I miss this message.

I honestly think I can't make a decision until I see round two. I was just so good. Like both sides handled themselves so well. Oh, icy vert's typing. Okay. Here we go. Okay. Who won the press be honest? My bad. This is we're losers. I don't know. You did it. I don't care about being this big allusers. We're actually losing the press off now. No, you spent so much time talking about it. No, we're winning the press off because we're, we're the one who are just benefiting

from the press. Right, but also spending this much of our game. I think it's been more of our game. About the press off makes you a loser of the press off. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. Okay, my bad. I thought you did a great job. Big play. Oh, he says not going to be there. Oh, then he lost the loss. He lost the press. Oh, no. He lost the press. Tell me lost. If you don't show, you lose the press off. Yeah, I'll be your person. I'd be willing to purchase tickets for you. Just so you don't lose.

Okay. Okay. I said, people are saying if you don't show you lose the press off, I'd be willing to purchase tickets for you. Just so you don't lose on a technicality. We can't have them lose on a technicality. We can't have, we can't fire. We'll probably lose this series. We can't. That's a good point. Well, also, actually, you know what, though,

If you want to double press the man, you've got to go to his home yet. That's a good point. Yeah, - Yeah, sir. - He's not survived that press.

“- Sir, he doesn't start until the home team loses a press.”

- But he did lose the press at home. - That was a hard loss of press at home? - No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. - We don't know if he lost. - Oh, that's true.

- Yeah, we don't get it. - Yeah, it's fit on the real real real real real real real real real real. (laughs) - If Dickensburg wants to win this press series, he's got to do it on the road.

He's got to steal home ice. - Yeah. - We gotta get a conclusion. - I feel like you're not being objective when it comes to this match.

- I'm super a joke. - I don't think you are. - It's a him. - As a fili guy. - I said, right off the bat. - Why are you making the kids trans, bro?

(laughs) - We're really gonna talk about politics. - We're gonna talk about politics. - We're really gonna talk about politics. - There you go.

- Yeah. - All right, so no one knows who won that. - It's impossible to say. - All right, I left it with ice. You've heard I said I'd buy a mitigate

and then I said, we'll also try to get Pickensburg to show face and fili for press round two. I need it.

“I'm like Rick Petino, I'm addicted to the press.”

- I am. - I need it. - He says, he says, let's go. Hand on the shoulder was the dagger. (laughs)

- Dude, that's it. All he keeps going back to be saying. - Yeah.

- If you're a man, you never let another man put your hand.

- It's hand on your shoulder. - Yeah. - The dagger. - Yeah. - Wait, so it actually was over before they even sent it.

- Big time as well. - Big time. - All cash. - So Pickensburg thinks, so he doesn't even need to repress it.

- No. - He won with the hand. He could just show up to Philly, put his hand on icy, versus shoulder, and that'll be it. - You touch another man's shoulder, you win.

- Yeah. - That's how it's going to go. - What if Pickensburg just shows up to Philly and they just play a game of tag throughout the entire arena?

(laughs) - This is way too long. - This is way too long. - We're down on the press. - All right, let's get to our interview with Ryan Whitney.

“I believe that everything happens for Reese's.”

Just think about it. What is the one thing every team or athlete wants? A championship. Why?

Because half of 'em are called cups. Stanley, world, writer, just like Reese's. Luckily scoring a Reese's cup is way easier than winning a championship. It's almost like you were destined to get one right now

And now here's Ryan Whitney. (whooshing) Okay, we now welcome on a very, very, very, very, very, very special guest. It is a good friend Ryan Whitney here to talk some hockey.

By the way, wit, thank you for your chapter in the book. You're welcome. That was an honor to be a part of that book. I can't wait to read it. Now I gotta apologize.

I will not be looking at you guys. You haven't told the one who's listening yet that there's seven minutes and 43 seconds left on the Oilers' Anaheim Games. You guys wanted some live reactions from me

so I won't be looking at you.

Well, isn't a second period in hockey.

They've got three of them. So it's not like that thing. I mean, have every minute matters. Every minute matters because if you can go up three one with seven minutes up in the second period,

that sets you up pretty nicely for the third. But, so wit did write a chapter. He's the number one in terms of appearances. - Yes, that's pretty big time. - It is. - In sync.

- I'm not gonna be that guy. - Yeah. - But, what's the text I'll tell you? - You guys are monsters. You've been monsters forever and now looking back.

It's like holy shit. Like I'm number one most appearance on this show. - Yeah. - You should get some rules. - You can't tell the history of the story of part

of my take without Ryan Whitney. - I don't know if that's necessarily true. - What do you mean? - But I'll take that. I'll take that.

- But I didn't even think that was a troll either. But I'm not allowing you to say that. - But wait, I'm just a small cog in the wheel. - If you write a chapter, you wrote a chapter in the book. It's a really nice chapter.

If it does become a New York Times bestseller, you are in fact, a New York Times bestselling author. - Yes. - Yeah, and that would lead to some royalty. - Right.

- From what are you guys? - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - By the way, 'cause we didn't mention the regular show. We should have done that. - And thanks to that.

- We are also taking five AWS who submit what part of my take means to them. - To Max's Bachelor party? - No. - That would be funny.

- Yeah, you are invited. - Oh, I do not wanna come out. - Okay, but you're invited. Five people that all they have to do is pre-order the book. And then we're gonna post, we've posted the submission,

but we'll repost it, submit what it means to you, and we're gonna pick five people and put them in the book. So, five AWS people are gonna get chopped up. - Yeah, exactly.

- Okay, I thought you were gonna get to play golf with Hank. - No, they can't do that as well. - I'm sure Hank will, yeah, he'll, - Yeah, that's gonna be a problem.

- So be a part of AWS for a lesson on the second T.

- Yeah, yeah.

“- So why aren't you coming to Max's Bachelor party?”

- Well, Vegas isn't really in my game anymore, man. We were there for the draft after the Panthers first cup, and I remember leaving. I think, Biz and I were sitting in the airport. I was like, I don't think I'll ever come back here.

- Yeah. - No offense, you guys, I'm sure you'll have fun. - Well, you would go to Barcel Spring Break. - No, I probably wouldn't take Barcel Spring Break, not really my scene.

I loved Vegas back in the day, but at this point, it's just kind of like, I'm not, I'm looking for a bar stool, you know, no offense, I ended, and a game on TV, and thinking of you guys at the club Friday night,

that's, well, I won't be, yeah, I'm not gonna go to the club. - Oh, we were offered to go to the club. - We're, we're, we're, I'm with you. - Yeah. - Like the auto service in the last day.

- No, we won't be at that point, you know. - That's for the young guy. - I went in Vegas when Vegas won the cup. We went to a club after that the cup was going to, eight minutes, and then I was like,

all right, I can't believe I did this for like 13 years, every Saturday night. - We should try to convince Dave to do like a bar stool, spring break, but it's just all the old guys, and we just, we golf, we watch all the games,

and we go to bed at 9 p.m., and we go to bed at 9 p.m. - Yeah, take that. - Tastes sweet, like, oh, breaking news, big cat has gone to the bathroom again to take a shit. - Big cat, it's so soft.

- Breaking news, Ryan Whitney is starting to dose off on the recliner. - It's only eight, 30 p.m. - No, yeah, the late game hasn't even started yet. - Dude, these are their games.

- So it sucks some hockey, it's crack. It's so, it's so late. I've watched two out of the three of them, the other one I woke up, and I, whatever game it was like seven to five.

- I was, I was game three. - Yeah, it was like, what the fuck? - Like, it's heroin hockey, I don't, it, I'll say this, like, it's the most entertaining team in the league by a mile, because every single game,

something ridiculous happens, and usually more than one thing, one ridiculous thing's happened, there's lead changes, back and forth. Now, the elephant in the room, the real problem,

is McDavid's hurt, and it just sucks. - How bad? - He's not, so it's weird, Keith, he answer is saying like, it's like he lost his superpower. So he skates like no one I've ever seen before,

and he's faster with the puck than without. I mean, I've been on this show, how many times have been on number one, most appeared guests, but I probably talked about him for most of them, and he's skating,

and with the puck, and what he's able to do with his cutback stops and starts,

it's, I've never seen anything like it,

and now he doesn't have that. He still has the straightaway speed I've noticed like tonight in the last game, but the little cutbacks, where he's beaten the out of the corner, and just embarrassing people, it's like ninja mode,

he doesn't have it, and it just sucks as an oiler's fan, but hey, we're up to one three minutes, 30 seconds up, we're on a three on two. It just is a bummer knowing that I don't know if they can go along with these things.

Yeah, and it's like, now if they keep going, maybe it gets better and better,

“but at this point, how, how do injuries improve in this matter?”

Do you know what the injury is? No, playing doctor, it looked like a spring night goal. Like it just echoing fell on him, and he's like an ankle kind of bent in, and it looked innocent, it was just totally fluky,

and then he was, he was wounded. Like he came back into that game through a pizza, they scored, they ended up winning that game, it was just, oh, that's a penalty, there we go, awesome, fucking an A.

- What? - 'Cause you're well on beat, he's playing in the NBA playoff. - Oh, he's on a horse, yeah, he's on that. - Pena's she had on his abdomen before the game.

- Yeah, wow, give him a medal. - What up? - I've told you guys, and I think the last time I was on, I mentioned that, I think my first appearance was the ripping on the NBA, and yes,

and you've ever watched stuff that you did and said when you're younger and you're like, oh, it's kind of like painful, like, yeah, yeah, I think that was amazing. - Yeah, well, like, I'll look a week from a week ago

and go fuck you loser. - So I am like, oh, it's kind of painful,

“I believe all that, but it's just like, wow,”

I was kind of ridiculous and being kind of a heart-o, but I texted you today. - Yeah.

- The products never been worse.

The NBA aren't watch it, so you can say, how you know the product, it's terrible. And if you're not somebody, I've asked you guys, and I think in the book, my chapter, I mentioned, you could be as the number one podcast,

so it's the people who change the game and lead off your show with hockey when football season's not going. But no, you guys stick to basketball and it's horrible. - Wait, it's horrible. - We talk a lot of hockey, no, you don't.

- Compared to other-- - When I'm on, so the 47 times, I've been on, yeah, you guys talk hockey.

so that are all sports podcasts, do not talk hockey. - True. - There's hockey podcasts, but then there's sports podcasts. - But if you guys became the biggest sports podcast that also led with hockey in the winter,

after football season, I just think it would help hockey a lot. - It's all I'm saying. - So it's all you, are you a little nervous, so with what you just said, and then it just becomes us talking about Conrad

David, not being able to win the big one. - First, five months. - I'm trying to think if I'm willing to deal with that, if then some of your listeners would traffic over to check-lets, to get some real hockey talk.

- Yeah, they stop talking shit about this. - When I say real hockey talk, I've got,

“I think five or six things completely wrong,”

and we're not even halfway through the first one.

- Right, right. - But getting things wrong is better. - That's the thing, it's like, they don't boom nobody's guys. - Yeah, I don't know, I don't know.

- I don't know that you would, you say that you want us to lead off with hockey, but the amount of stuff that we would fuck up if we actually lead off with hockey. - Yeah, but then it's all right with the score,

down low check-lets, go on Netflix, check-lets, check-lets, and we'll get what really happened. But we fuck up the sports we do now. - I know, and I can't, I got one sport in my fucking mouth. - Won't you start doing some NFL?

- We do like, we'll do like a quick NFL recap Monday, sometimes after like a awesome 4/30 Sunday game. - Yeah, I do love hearing biz during those. - Yeah, like hearing them find out players for the first time. - And like, he wrote his stuff.

- Oh yeah, like positions, yeah, yeah. - I am though at a point where I used to like, care a lot more about my fuck ups. Now I'm just like, we fuck up things, every fucking thing.

- Yeah, I know.

- We're each just kind of, I kind of love being wrong.

- Yeah, just let it go. - 'Cause you're like, oh man, like, it just shows that like man in the arena, guys, you know, you're in their given takes, left and right, like, you ain't getting all of them, right, you're in him getting half of them, right,

most of them. - Yep. - You're still giving them. - There's what I'm saying. - I don't do percent, it's in the whole thing. - That's baseball.

“- Last week I said, I think about like 350,”

which would be awesome and baseball. But if you're 50, I think so, yeah, I think-- - I was gonna give you 450. - Maybe like, yeah, maybe on bass. - Band, like, 275.

- I feel like he's really throwing shit to the wager. - No, I'll get on bass, I'll take this wrong, but then, like, big cat will clean it up. - Yeah. - And, like, slightly improved. - Yeah, just for those, like, internal truth, yeah.

- I'm like, tell me, I'll take that as, like, a walk. - Yeah, yeah, I'll take first bass, wow. - Yeah, we polished the takes. - Well, so, you'll, like, this one, I, I, uh, talking about the Carolina Hurricanes

auto ascendeders first round series. I picked auto, but it went in seven, they got swept.

They never had a lead for one second.

And, uh, and not only that, yeah. I, I, I was talking about, um, Carolina's, like, centers. I was like, oh, I mean, look at their third line center. You cooked, cooked in an army guy sucks. I forgot it was actually Jordan Stall,

who I played with in Pittsburgh, and he's played about 16 years. - Uh-huh. - So that was one where it's like, man, I, I think you are, like, semi-losing your mind. - Yeah, I get a little, see, now, all right,

let's, I wanna start there, cause I have some questions about the first round. Are we just the Hurricanes? I said this the other day. You've told me, great, this take.

- What is the Hurricanes? - Uh, sweep, but every year I was like, the Hurricanes just get to the Eastern Congress final, then they'll play a real team, then they're gonna lose. - Yeah, okay.

- Is that a fair take? - Oh yeah, okay. I've had that take, um, now the Panthers aren't in this year. And the Panthers just smashed them. They would just dump them in, like, booleum,

and now they're, they're not there. And there's no team like the Panthers in the East where they're just nasty and, you know, I, I think Carolina actually, if there's any year that they could get

to the cup final this year. - But that would be perfect cause that's the year I made the take. - Jack. - You're right, you're right.

You might have got them into the top. - Yeah, they're going, they're going. - I might have been in the final, I know. Now, yeah, they have like two different goalies, but Anderson's been their guy, but like,

boss of this brand and bossy was their guy all year. - Yeah. - It's been, no, you were ahead of me. - I'm ahead of you. - I'm ahead of you.

- This is so brutal. - I'm ahead of you. - I'm ahead of you. - You set this up? - No.

- It's a tight game. - Oh, it's a good thing. - And I'm just going to make a goal horn with water in my mouth. - And you, I didn't, we not set the song. I swear to God, I forgot that that team,

I didn't even know that we were ahead. - Turn off this TV. - I was looking at what I had turned off this TV.

“- Why hadn't you said you were ahead prior to the goal?”

- Because I didn't notice. I wasn't looking at that TV. I was looking at this TV. - It's about seven seconds ahead. - Yeah. - Yeah.

- Seconds ahead. - Turn this TV off. What are you doing? - Between something. Tell us where your live tweeting.

I'm recording part of my take with these two dummies right now. And I'm about to walk out if they score another goal. And they're at the end of their fall. - It is your fall. - The TV, it's on the TV, we're watching it.

- Head, head, sorry. - Now two, two. This is a disaster. - This is Max's fall. Did you like the goal horn though?

That was good. - No, it was like, oh. - Well, 'cause it was actually more like a, oh shit, but I had a mouthful of water. - This sucks.

- It was too nothing. - I bet the oil is tonight. - Yeah. - It's three to one a death sentence. - What?

- How bad is it? - Why don't you guys, I don't call three to one a death sentence. McDavid being injured, it's close to the fire and squad. They might bring back our red. - Yeah.

- But it's not a death sentence yet. - Why don't, this is not a troll question. - Well, not a troll question. - Why don't the oilers ever have a goalie? - It's crazy.

“- I think to the, to the non-big hockey fans,”

you know, the, the playoff fans. - Yeah, yeah, yeah, you guys, yeah, you guys. And guys like you, they're sitting around, they'll throw on the playoffs, they're probably like,

I don't get, why do they always have bad goals?

- They always do. - It's crazy. And wall stat, this awesome goal in Minnesota. They had like the 20th overall pick a few years going traded it and then the wild took them.

They, it's just like, I don't know, and then they traded Skinner who, I mean, they lost last two with him, but he gets into the finals for Jari. He's look good tonight now, it's two, two, I don't know.

I don't know. There's been a lot of fuckups in Edmonton and the roster, and it's just depressing. - And so, is it defense, two? They're decent pretty good.

They're decent, they think they have Boucher Evan Bouchard who gets kind of, he's unreal, but he makes like really bad turnovers once in a while. So people like this guy's a goon, he can't make plays when it counts,

but he has the second best points per game in the playoffs and the history of hockey for defensemen. So, I don't know man. - When McTave has signed the extension, it did appear like, there was an out if it didn't work out.

- Yeah, but why didn't that light a fire

“or Edmonton did do some of these things that you wanted?”

- I think that was the point of just the two year extension. Like, all right, let's, let's see what you could do here. And they, they got, they got just Jari, and they traded Kulak and Skinner. Kulak's good like stay at home defensemen.

I don't know man, I don't, it's crazy. And there's so many gollies out there, it seems like, can gollies a weird position. You know, you get a guy who's unreal one year in the next few struggles, but the oilers,

I don't wanna blame this on the goal-tending though. Like, in-group gave up seven, go six goals the other night, but he wasn't even that bad. I don't know, I know that sounds crazy. - That does sound crazy. (laughs)

- That sounds very crazy. - The defense is like, their team defense is brutal. They turn the puck over. This is, this is, I can't believe you, you were ahead of me. - I'd sorry, we're not using purpose.

- I wanna ask you about, about the B, about the Bruin tanks, Bruin, all man. - What happened today? - It feels like, what happened with Swimming? - It's, it looked like he screamed at his bench.

I don't know if that was, as directed towards his teammates or his coach. - No, that was at the team. Bad vibes. - Yeah, actually the coach asked,

a storm was asked about her after and he said, at least we had one guy show some fire today.

So, ooh, that's never good.

- That's not good. - Now, Swimming's been the best player for them in the series, they're down 3-1.

“They all year, I didn't, I think I picked Boston”

to be a possible lottery team before the year, so that's another good take. And then all year, I was there. How are they, so, how are they good? I don't really get it.

Posteroxin credible, he takes a lot of heat for the playoffs and his performance in the playoffs, but they, they just kept kind of proven people wrong, but now I'm my guy, they're playing Buffalo's, high-flying, fast-paced, and they can't, they can't hang with them.

Swimming, he gets pulled or whatever, and he's basically screaming at the team. Who at, I was reading, it was the worst game the Bruins have ever played at home in the playoffs. Now, I don't know if that's accurate,

considering they've been around 100 years, but it was pathetic, no shows from everyone. And I don't think guys are upset that Swimming, who's been awesome, is like, what the fuck wake up, whatever he yelled to them.

- Yeah, who, so the Sabers have, I was actually gonna ask like,

who has shocked you so far through the first three,

four games of the playoffs, are the Sabers up there? - The Sabers are up there, but they've been so good for since this mid-December. So it wasn't like that surprising. I'd thought maybe first playoffs and so long

for a lot of these guys that they might struggle, but they look good, and I'm awesome. - Yeah, and I'm set up to be really good for like eight for a long time. - And also Quinnville's an awesome coat.

- And they got Quinnville this summer, then they got some stuff like young guys that are just nasty, they got great young defensemen. They're, I thought the oilers would make easy work of them. I don't know why I thought that.

I just thought McDavid and Leon would just take over, but it hasn't happened. Callerado, they're no surprise, they swept their nasty. They're the favorites for a good reason. Other than that, fires, fires, for sure.

You know, what's going on in that series? 'Cause I went into that series being like, it's gonna be a war, but probably the penguins are gonna win. I picked the penguins, same thing with the Bruins.

They're brutal, everyone's like, cross, he's gonna get traded. He doesn't wanna be around for this. Another like fantastic regular season

“thought they'd lead into that, the flyers just.”

They got, have you heard of this Porter Martone? - Yeah. - Oh yeah. - He's great. - He heard a lot about him. - For the Philly accent? - For the Philly accent? It's perfect.

- Yeah. - Fartone. - Mark, is he only got Max talked about? - Yeah, Max, so we fired up, Max, we fired up. - I could tell, I could tell, I mean, he was watching the 76ers when I walked in this office.

- Well, the flyers aren't playing tonight. - What do you want me to do? - Yeah, but you know, you were just down in the dump. - I was down by 30. - All you have is the fire. - He fired up. - He fired up.

- So, we went to a Penn State Michigan State game. They played outdoors and Porter Martone played all year. Michigan State, he was unreal. Like, definitely good enough for your, like, all this kids leaving after his freshman year,

he's gonna be in the NHL. At the time, Flyers, way out of the playoffs. And if you're one of those guys who comes in, get the games, and then the next share plays is rookie year. They started playing better than he came,

and he changed the entire team. He looks unreal, they got a point for game. He's dominant, he's huge, high-pick, they've needed, like a young stud, they thought it was gonna be Mitchkov.

“He's now scratched for the game tonight,”

which is game five. He's just like not ready yet, he's not there yet. But Rick talk it. He went to Vancouver, took over a bad team there.

They went to game seven, second round,

and it's Edmonton a few years ago. He's a great coach and Flyers fans were all over them. The team wasn't doing well, Mitchkov, he wasn't playing them enough. Flyers fans have this weird thing with Mitchkov.

If you say a bad word about 'em, they snap, they've just been banking on this guy being a superstar. Max, do you wanna snap on me? - Yeah, it's bullshit, Mitchkov.

(laughing) Not fat, not fat. - What's his first name? - Matt Vay. - Okay.

- Here we go. - Wow, over it, fly it up. - But everyone's on a flat. - You was on a flat. - You was on a flat.

- Either way, they're playing just scumbag, filled off for your hockey. Now, I've been calling, I've been calling the city of Philadelphia, scumbags, it's dirt bags. But I respect it, you know?

“And biz brought it into TNT, I think he caught some heat”

for that. It's a little different saying on checklists and TNT call in the entire city scumbags. (laughing) Now, he went on the next TNT night

and he's like, this is a compliment. This is playoff hockey, you wanna be a scumbag. But they're all scumbags. And the fans just scumbags. And I believe yesterday for game four,

yeah. The shirts said, "Puck every buck, everybody." But the flies, you know, "Fuck everybody, scumbags, city." They're hard to play against. They got a great story there.

And I don't like Philly, I don't like the flyers, but seeing them back in the playoffs with that orange crowd, it is a great, I got to play them in the playoffs once with Pittsburgh. It's amazing, I was sure.

- Yes, guys, what's the toughest place to play? Montreal's tough. So back in the day, San Jose was hard to play him. That crowd was sick, they'd come out to a Metallica song. - Yeah.

- It was unreal, I can't think of the name of it. - 'Cause they get a lot of shit for not being like a traditional hockey town, but if you're in San Jose and you're a shark's fan, like, you really give a fuck about,

they have a solid group, people bad. Like they don't care about anything, but the sharks. - They had, I wanna say, 15 year, 12 to 15 year run

of like President's trophies and never could get over the hump.

And it was like the best crowd in hockey. - Yeah, I'll ski in Joe Thornton, Marlow. - Yeah. - Ryan Klo, they had all these guys, and now, like, Celebrini's kind of bringing them back. I bet they're in the playoffs next year.

And you could tell last year, when I said that if they were playing in my backyard drink, I would've shut the shades and not watched. This year, I was watching every game. And nobody was at the games last year,

and then this year was packed. So there, that city's coming back. Montreal's a great atmosphere. Tough place to play. Films, tough.

Films, tough, they'll, yeah, they're scumbas. They'll spit on you and stuff like that. Real dirt bags like Max. - In the playoffs, everywhere's hard to play though. - Yeah.

- Yeah, you know, it's always great atmosphere. It's in every building. - That lightning Canadian series that tied to two, to an after tonight, that's been a war. - That's been kind of exactly what I thought it would be.

- Right. - They're killing each other. So this Brandon Hagle, you heard of him? - Yeah. - So he was drafted by Buffalo, they didn't sign him.

He went to Montreal, like rookie camp. They were like, "No, we're all set." Ends up with Chicago. They trade 'em, like, I don't know what they were thinking. They did get a big return, but since he's got to Tampa,

I mean, he has a 90 point season. He was on team Canada. He had the fight with Matthew Goodchuck and the four nations face off. They won that.

He has six goals through four games in this. He's throwing some enormous hits. He fought Slavkovski, knocked him out. He's become just, he's like a, Matthew Goodchuck, Brad Marchant type player.

He's unreal. So that series has been a war.

It was actually over time, the first three games,

then tonight, three, two.

yeah, the lightning score with like five minutes left. Yeah, Kuturov is sick, that's a great series. I think the Canadians are like the docks where they're set up for the next while here with a lot of young studs and it's,

that's another city man, like they're in the playoffs. That rank, you guys would love to go to a playoff. - We have to, you did. - Yeah, I did last year. - Oh, okay, yeah, yeah, I'm happy with it.

The entire penalty box filled up with dudes and Tom Wilson was like trying to fight his way out of the box. - That wasn't killed, carry it. - Yeah, yeah. - Well, no, no, that was the next game.

- Okay. - He turned the series around on that one hit. - Yeah. - And the open ice one. - How sick is that place, though?

- It's actually incredible.

I was, I don't want to say I was scared because it wasn't like a fray, but it's the most intimidating, loud building to be in like, if you're in opposing fan,

“it's like, you feel like you should not be there.”

- Which is, it's a compliment, yeah. Oldie was there. - And Oldie was actually the best person to be with in a situation like that because he was rocking like all the capscare, too.

And people would like come up to him and they'd be angry. And then Oldie would talk to him for about, I don't know, two seconds. And now they're like hugging, trucking beers together.

- Oh, they're taking a sandwich. - Oh, they're taking a sandwich. - Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly. - Yeah. - Yeah, so he's a great guy to diffuse any situation,

but that building is fucking insane. - Yeah. - And it's just a stand. - Yeah. - I think I've said this in the show.

I don't know how they got away with like the building code up and want you all there, I don't know if there was one, but it is just straight down. Now another crowd in this, this matters for me. Buffalo not being in for so long.

And we saw the role, we saw the role of Blade Gang. - Are you gonna join 'em? - Unbelievable. - Tuesday morning, I'm fine, a buffalo. - Are you?

- And I'm going to game five. - Are you gonna, are you gonna blade up? So our memes, I texted him or tweeted him, I said, you gotta bring me rolled blades in hockey gear. I wanna get with those guys.

I gotta see my billboards in person. - Yep. - My 0.00% chance billboards of making playoffs. And I think that, I've had a couple tweets, I don't show your face, but overall I think the crowd,

they know I've just eaten it and that I, that I led into that clip saying, I hope the savers get in and it fans don't deserve this. So I'm fired up to see a game. - Also, they're up three one.

Like if they were down three one, I'd be like, maybe we don't go, yeah. - But they're up three one.

“- Now here's the thing, it's me and Murl's.”

So I don't know if they're gonna be able to win with us in the building, we will eat it. - No, you got to eat it. - No, you got to eat it. - But Murl's is a huge shabber's fan.

- There'll be, he'll be rattled. - So pull to you, you're gonna blade up. I wanna see, I told him, I think he's driving, he's in Troy, so you gotta bring your blades and I have to get memes to bring me blades.

- All right, so what, like, obviously do whatever you want, but I think the funniest thing to do would for you and Murl's to not tweet any of the videos and let him just come out naturally and people be like, the fuck is that weird thing?

- Is that weird thing? - I think memes is coming. - You know, I do the video, like what I'm saying,

like the actual first, like the first clip

that goes out of the blade gang. - Yeah. - And he's just happy with it and just be like, wait a second. - Yeah. - He's witty in the play, he'd get it?

- Yeah, like I guess giving it away on this 'cause a lot of people listen to show that might have been a mistake. - No, people look for it, but I already tweet, I mean, I tweeted out my ticket and I didn't crop it

to take my sweet, either, no, no, because I did that on purpose. It's like belly of the beast, like I want to, I want people to know where I am in that building. - Well, also the sabers are probably gonna fucking hit you up and be like, yeah, get on the sand.

- They came home, yeah, get on the sandbony. Come up to, you know, this is what you need. - I love to ride the sandbony. - Yeah. - Section 1117, row 22, seat 13.

- Yeah, I mean, I don't know if you didn't have to say that, I don't know how many people see my Twitter post listening to it now. - I mean, you can describe a tweet, but I think our audience wants to hear it.

- Wait, was just a audio podcast. - Yeah, so just to say two x speed, what was it? - Okay, if you're listening to x speed, I'll slow down. Section 1117, row 22, seat 13, ticket, type, adult. Enter, I'll 19.

- I know where to enter, if they close it, I'll throw it. - Murl says that if they win tonight, you know, C.O.I did that professional podcast. - Yeah, that was smart. That the city will act like they won the cup.

“Like that's how legitimate these people are about this.”

- Oh yeah, they need something. They need some good news. - Have you pissed in my trough yet? - No, where is that? - It's over there.

- Yeah, I got to piss this up. - Yeah, yeah. - I have a urinal in my basement. - You do? - I mean, that was one of the things I just did.

- I just never told me that, did you put ice in it?

- No, it's not that big. - That's a good move though. - Yeah. - Ice in the trough is the best. - The urinal is just, you just feel like a man.

- Yeah. - Hell yeah. - Ryan Whitney's being brought to you by Jose Cuervo. When Cuervo enters, every moment just gets better. You find yourself in the center of the dance floor.

You can't help but stand up and high five those around you at the game. The room reacts like it just got the same tax at the same time. Let me stop checking the time.

You can barely catch your breath. That's the Cuervo effect. It's a signal everybody understands a moment that anyone can join and a good time that just grows.

“And all you have to do is keep it Cuervo.”

And now back to more Ryan Whitney. - Speaking of Zambo, I actually have, I'm riding the Zamith next year. Are you? - Yeah.

So Jordan's small tonight made a bet on the North Dakota Wisconsin semifinal game 'cause he went North Dakota and I was like, "You gotta get me on the Zamith "cause his brother plays obviously for the mammoth."

And so I won 'cause the badgers beat him. So he's like, "Yeah, get you on there." I get a plus one too. - That's baseball. - That's baseball.

- That's baseball, shout out Dana Bears. - No. But that could be like, "Hey, I'll get you on "and I'll have my brother get you on "and they tell us his brother's brother's, I ain't get you."

- No, he's gotta get me on. He, I mean, his reputation's on one. I'm taking that's porn if he's on. - I know small two a little bit I would almost... - No, he's a miracle.

- He's a star on that guy. - You're on that Sam. - Yeah, I mean the original pet was I wanted the Zamith. He couldn't deliver that. Like I wanted to own it.

- I feel like you could get your own Zamith built. - That's it. - We should get a mini Zamboony here just sweep the coins here, I had that thing around.

- He would never allow him.

- I would never allow him. - I would never allow him. - But the travels around were meant to, that's his work stage. - By the way, why are you swiser?

- Like a rumble. - Why so big, you don't want mincey? - All right, everyone. - You've got so much hate in your heart. - You're taking everything, so serious.

- No, he's a piece of shit. - He's a piece of shit. - My bag got really bad guy. Terrible guy, worst guy we got. - Oh my god.

I just love that he picked you out and being like, "That Ryan Whitney." - Yeah, it's so much hate in my heart. - He's just so hateful. - It's not, he's caring for bags.

- Yeah. - He's a big buddy. - He sees you being grumpy and he's like, "He's a bad guy." - Yeah, I don't think, good guys can--

- I don't think people get like the grumpyness. Yeah, I guess I come off as grumpy. - I don't see you as a grumpy guy. - But what do you mean? - To me, it doesn't mean bad guy at all.

Grumpy doesn't mean, to me, not negative connotations. It's like, yeah, some of my best friends are grumpy all the time. - Yeah, but I'm not even like grumpy.

I guess I've never thought you were grumpy.

I've known you for a long time now. - I've never been like, they get like, they're set to humor around boss, they with people. I don't know, everyone's kind of like, you're just a love life voice.

- Yeah, you raise sunshine. - Yeah, thank you. - Tell me something,

“what's the best thing that's happened to you this week?”

- I think if your team me up with something right now. - No. - Is your son still playing in a hockey tournament? - We're just trying to prove that you're not grumpy. - Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, we're going, okay,

I thought you were going somewhere else. - Yeah, no, oh, oh, happy. - Hey, just waking up this morning. - There you go. - Every day.

- Every day you wake up above ground, that's a good day. - Hey, you wake up, breath in your lungs. Beautiful family. - Yeah. - Buddy, I'm living life, I'm loving life.

Showed up, mincey right now. Thank you for making me appreciate my life and getting out of the doom and gloom. - Yeah, I live in. - So close.

- I think you've got to go to a panic show with 'em. - I think that is the solution to this. - Burn the place down. - I got a question about, are you coaching your son? - I coach, yeah, my middle guy, why it,

he'll start next year and then rider be first year

squirt next year, coach them and then I'll help coach. Why? I'm assisting coach though, 'cause I travel all day. - Right. - Maybe the head coach.

- But I got a question about that, so my kid's play sports, but I'm like, hey listen, as long as you learn how to throw a ball and not look like a doofus, yeah, that's the height of what I'm looking for. We're not going prone anything.

We're a podcasting family. That's what we do. - Yeah, exactly.

“- Is there a party you though that is watching them?”

Like, this is what I was when I was his age or like, - No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. - 'Cause there are parents who probably do this, and I, so this is funny 'cause we talk about this a lot. Like, there's completely psychotic sports parents, right?

I'm not there, but if you're like doing it a lot, like you're a little crazy. - Yeah. - Like with, and hockey is, now I keep hearing baseball down south and every sport is a little ridiculous.

There's clubs for it. It's all so broken we could talk for hours. But I'm like, putting in a lot of time with the kids, and I love it, but I'm also like, but you gotta just try hard and be a good teammate.

And if I see you not trying hard, like I'm gonna be upset. - Right. - Like it, I'm not trying to be like, it's not with the loss, it's like, no, and there's time,

no, Ryder, he's eight. He turns nine in November. It's like he comes to the bench sometimes. Cry when he makes mistake. I'm like, "Bud, like you can't."

And then like he does it like three games in a row, and then I'm like getting mad at him on the bench, and then after I'm like, "What am I doing?" But I need to teach him not to cry while he's playing hockey. I mean, it's a great experience.

It brings back a lot of memories. But it's hard because I was so obsessed with hockey. It was, there was nothing else that mattered to me. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - Every in my life.

and it's like, "Oh, it's just, I think I'm starting

to realize where I am starting to realize it's like, I was not the norm." - Right. - But it's gotta be weird being like, you know what, you hit the ceiling,

you went, you played in the NHL. And that is his jeans. So like, yeah, like I said, like when I'm watching my kids like, "Hey, listen, you could try your absolute hardest. We're not going pro."

- You know what I mean? - The jeans thing is like, I don't know, yeah, obviously you see a lot of former professional athletes whose kids play, you know, pro sports.

But how many guys, kids play that you don't? It's true. - Yeah, true. - It's still so, the odds are just so ridiculous. I just seem like learn how to be a good teammate, right? I know that from my friends I talked to a couple guys

on their own businesses, the kids they hire are all former athletes. It's not even necessarily like college athletes, but it's just like being on a team and knowing what it takes to work together with people.

“And like, I don't know, that's why I love sports.”

- Yeah. - And no, the teamwork, that's why I say, like, I just tell my part of a team is a kid is very important. People who will shit on some people

who'll shit on sports be like, you know, it doesn't really matter if they play, no, being part of a team, winning and losing, learning how to deal with that shit, learning that to be there for your teammates.

- Yes. - Those are life lessons. Does he have a good hockey birthday? - My oldest two bad hockey birds. - Oh no. - Yeah. - 'Cause it wasn't at that Malcolm Gladwell thing

where he could don't have a great hockey bird thing. - What's some, so it's February? 'Cause that's when, yeah, so like people who don't know, like you play with your age group. So the funniest thing is hockey people, it's so bizarre.

You're talking to other parents. You're like, do you have a 2016? Do you have a 2019? That's how you just talk about the kids. - Right. - All right.

- You have a 2014, and it's just based on the fact that that's who you play with. So the January February is of the year. - Or all like the sickest player. - And at eight, nine, 10 years old, like a December,

is a year younger than a January, if you're not a student, it matters.

“So the hockey bird they think's hilarious.”

So then our third is a May. So I'm like, okay, I'm a May's a little closer to the first. That's in the first half. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. - Yeah, comic-maker, January 13.

- But I love coaching because you just, to seek a kid like improve, and to see them like hockey or any sport more at the end of the year, than they do at the beginning, big time. - It's the best feeling, like it's like,

because I just know how much I love the game. If this kid ends up loving the game

and just always being a hockey fan for life,

after he's done playing high school, college, whatever, then it's like, it's just, it's cool. - Did you have a coach that made you love the game or was it like you always just loved it? - I always loved it, but that was 'cause of my dad.

So my dad made me love it. And he played in high school, but he never, and he just loved it. And then I just, I was obsessed. I was obsessed.

I just remember like being so fired up on the bus ride home to go home and go put on my roller blitz and then being my street for like two hours alone. - That's awesome.

- And then I'm like, right, I don't want you to go out and shoot some poxies, like I'm all set.

“- Yeah, do you freeze upon your backyard?”

- I built a rink. - Yeah, so what's the steps on that? - 'Cause I saw a rink and I thought about getting a rink. It'd be funny to have a tiny one. - So it's a sport hog rink here.

- Yeah, it's a pickleball court summer. And then, you know, you soak it down with the water, you flood it, and then it freezes in the winter and the boards are up. So that's actually the most fun thing

the kids do and like their buddies come over, get a fireplace out there. Now, we had about 15 feet of snow this winter. So I'm out there shoveling a shovel the car. - Yeah, I'm shoveling a shovel now.

I had a lot of help with shoveling a mug of a lot, guys. But there are a couple of days. Somebody couldn't come over and shovel and I was out there. So yeah, I mean, it's pretty cool. My wife was disgusted.

She's like, "Look at this ain't a rink in our backyard. "It looks so stupid." - No, it's awesome. - And I was like, "Oh, it looks great." - Yeah, yeah.

- It looks like a carnival. We got the pool, we got the rink. I got a little bachie ball, mini bachie ball court. It's like a straight up circus in my backyard. - What if you had a kid that was like,

"I want to be a goldie dad?" - I say, "No, my middle guy has said it a bunch times. "I don't know. "No, no. "No, I don't want anything to do with that.

"I don't know. "Oh, most goldies are pretty weird dudes." - Yeah. - And I don't know anything about the position. - I was just probably a good thing.

'Cause I wouldn't be able to tell him any nonsense. We've talked about my takes and no. No, how wrong I think.

- Then no was for the game, we're in the third period.

Now again, I'm on a power play. - Oh no. - Gold tending is just a weird, weird position. And watching the game is your kids at Goli. - That's gotta be just terrible.

- It's terrible. - So that's a hard no. - Do you think hard? - But what it is? - Okay, so it sounds like--

- So my dad's sorry. - But you're making your kids scared to come out to you as being a goldie. They might be like going over their friends house and playing Goli 'cause they're like,

"No, they've grown out of it already." - Okay. - They've grown out of it, but when you're younger, you pass the pads around to every kid plays goal.

I gave up like 17 and was like,

"I'm never doing that again."

- Yeah, that was the play.

“- The worst day you're like, yeah, yeah, exactly.”

- All right, so through the first four games, what was your final position? - Two on one. - Come on, here we go. - Come on.

- Dickinson has been money. - Not a score. - I mean, that wasn't great. - No. - That wasn't great.

- Yeah, they're going back the other way, two on one. - By the way, we got the team set. - Oh, we're not, we're not in the game anymore. - Oh, okay. - Oh my god.

- This is crazy, guys. I mean, this might be some of the worst podcasting of all time. - We do this all the time. - It's great. - Clear it.

- All right, we can go back to our combo. (laughing) - Who's gonna win the cup? - Tough to say, Colorado's not gonna win. - Yeah, they look so good.

- They're so nasty. I think it'd be incredible, right? Like obviously I want the oilers. If the wild, I want the wild to get by Dallas. I picked Dallas.

- That's been an unbelievable experience. - That's been an incredible experience.

And did you know the wild have never held a two-o series

leaving the history of their franchise? - True. - And they haven't got out of the first round in a while. - 11, 12 years, maybe? - Yeah.

- It's been a sort of sports or something. - Minnesota sports, they're just straight up course, but they got that win the other day. I feel like that was, those are the biggest game in the Minnesota Wilds franchise history, I said.

Because, yes, they've been to a conference final, but this year, like Quinn Hughes all in, it's their time. Precept makes 17 million a year, starting next year. It's like, if they went down three won again,

after winning game one, after winning six to one, that it just would have been such a disaster. Now we got a series, so it's great. I like Quinn Hughes, I don't know if you guys have watched that this guy, this guy, he's, I don't get it.

I don't get how he's. - Well, no, he's canceled, so we don't watch. Quinn, oh yeah, I'm sorry, yeah, he's canceled. He was with Cash, yeah, he took a phone call in the locker phone call, laughed and so he's done

and Cash showed up here in his face. It's over, it's over. - Can you think, Cash, probably listen to your podcast. - I was wondering that. - Definitely, I was wondering that.

- Yeah, well, I wonder if we're staying away from all that. I mean, I don't know. - But what if you guys do a little trouble with the lawn, you're like, hey, no, I need to get out of jail free. - All right, could, yeah.

- You think, you think it helped us? - Yeah, yeah. - I don't know, so I just got a phone call this, does anybody know? - It's got to phone the present, you could say that.

- They're all time right there. - There's on fourth present, I have your phone call. - I have your phone call. - Oh, hundred. - It's on third present.

- Well, so that's, that small 'cause Gucci, he's tweeted it about a thousand times and I've laughed every day. - Oh, every fucking time he tweeted I laugh. - When the heat daddy writes,

I'll call the president, just talking to the president. - Asia, I laugh every time. - Yeah, yeah, I was just talking to the president. - Oh, man, it's so fucking good. All right, here we go, power away.

- Oh, yeah, oh, go ahead of us and I'm talking about it. - You're talking about it, I'm talking about it. - Oh, yeah. - That was so old shit. - What did I tell you about Evan Bouchard?

- You did. - Yeah, put your head down, McTavish. Feel shame in the penalty box. Evan Bouchard, podcasting. - Over 90 points this year, super stars,

but called out first play in the series,

we got the lead, oh my god, that's our second power play goal of the game. Powerplay was called out early, look at McDavid, another point, look at that shop voice. This guy, he shoots 100 and 3 miles an hour,

there's one timer, that's a snipe. - Hey, what'd you do with all your ducks swag they sent you? Was it nice, was it old school mighty ducks? - No, it's all the new colors. - I wish they'd go back, I know.

- Yeah, these colors. - I don't, it's like hunting color when you go duck hunting. - Exactly, exactly. - You're right, which I'm doing right now. - Right, right.

“- You should be with the mids and killing ducks.”

- Yup. - The mask though is a big time giveaway, they did the one night, the duck mask. - Yeah, that's a solid one. - That I tweeted out.

- That's incredible. - The throwbacks would, I don't know. - There's the best jerseys ever. - These jerseys are horrible, I think. - Also, it's like when you're talking about the flyers,

the flyers are orange, you can't also be orange. - Oh, I know. - Oh yeah, there we go. We, what's that? - Oh, no way, PFT, but grab that up, grab next to you.

- No, I don't do that. - Grab this thing next to you, why are you doing that? - I forgot, we have a signed, but you don't see it in time scores, I'm out of here, I'm telling you, for you putting that jacket on.

- We have a sign. - No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. So you put in that jacket on, we went over this, we had the episode. I'm out of this room. - If Anna, did you see this? - If Anna, did you see this? We have a sign to Millial Estimates.

- Oh, no, she's good. - It's freezing, are you? - That didn't sound like you were thought of a sign. - I mean, it's like, it's so hard to sign, like, I don't know. - He's got his door in the back. - He's got his door in the back. - Yeah, I get it, it's just, I don't know what?

“- I think that jersey be better without the signature of a jersey. - I think that jersey, you don't want to be the one I like to just the bomb Bay. You don't need his actual name. You should assign it Gordon Bomb Bay and out of Millial Estimates.”

- So people don't count up for that. - I agree with that. Like, I get to DUI and they're like, hey, go coach Kokes. - Go and then try to do that. - That's crazy. - Oh, yeah, that's crazy. - That's crazy. - That's crazy. - That's crazy. - That movie came out like 93. - I think that was, it was everything. - Yeah. Awesome. All right.

- Hoodies, joggers, shorts, rowback.com promo could take Zack. I'm going to give you the Robacquestion. - Oh, yes, he was not prepared. - What's going on with how are you doing today? - What's up with Zack? - How are you doing, buddy? - Doing well. Quick question for you today. I was just curious, uh, where you see this game going. - Down to the wire. - No, you stopped prepared. - What's your stop prepared? - Good question, Zack. - That's a great question. - Thank you, sir. - I think we finished just thing off four two with an empty netter.

- All right, a serious question. Where do you think the Canadian's lightning series goes towards the end of it? - I think we finished game seven overtime.

“- And who takes that? - I think that, um, that would be in Tampa. I picked Tampa, so I got to stick with them, but I'm rooting for Montreal. Is that okay, Zack?”

- Uh, it can be going to say what I know. - I know you're a Tampa guy. - So you're rooting for them, but we both think Tampa will win. Is that what you're saying? - Did I miss you? - Uh, yeah, I did. I picked Tampa four of the series. - Okay. - I still think they'll win, but I'm not as confident as I was before the series. - You get it? - I do. Let's get confident. I like that. - It's got confidence. - How sick was that Ruben Bane draft thing when he grabbed that hat? - It was pretty rap, right? - Yeah. - Very cool. I got a question with the draft lottery. That's coming up on Saturday, right?

- It's rigged. - Well, I just say that. I just, let's, I must say, if Vancouver or Calgary doesn't get first overall pick this year, it's rigged. - Okay. - It's called the Rangers get it. There's going to be a problem. - I mean, yeah. - That would be a big problem. 7 of a rigged. - Wait, wait, I'm an oil fan. They've had like 7 of them in the past. - Yeah. - It doesn't, it doesn't equal success. - No, I think we'll stand in the past. - So Vancouver, they have the highest odds.

“- Yeah, and then I think Chicago is number two. - Oh, I thought Chicago was two. - No, Calgary's four. So two of the guys that you said,”

- Who's rigged? - The Rangers. - No, the Black-Ox suck. - Yeah, okay. All right, so we'll be a big big fan crew.

- It's just never had the first overall pick. - Yeah. - And Calgary's never had a top three pick, I don't think. - That's crazy.

- So, I don't know. All right, so let's say a fan crew, we're doesn't get it rigged. - Or does it? - Is there a stud? - So Gavin McKenna. - Oh, yeah. - Oh, yeah. - Now, keep him out of bars. - He's not as, um, - Did he do, did he get a bar fight? - A knock the guy out, it was chirping his mom. - Oh, okay, then that's just, it's pretty legend. - Don't call it. - Don't try, don't try, don't try but guys. - 17 year old freshman. - Yeah. - Some lose track of mom. - Ever my favorite pick and smirk. - Yeah, that actually puts you to the top. - Yeah, it was a press, it was a press. - Oh, he was getting pressed, but then he won the press. - Yeah, yeah.

- He must've gotten pressed. - Yeah. - And he pressed the shit out of that other guy with the fist. - Yeah. - Okay, now McKenna was going to be, he's guaranteed first overall. I think he's still going to go first overall.

“But it's, I think some people and now who were saying, like, McDavid tight player that maybe they're thinking, like, it's going to be very good, but not McDavid.”

- You know what I'm saying? - Right. - Kind of, um, well, McDavid's the best. - Yeah, he's the best, boys. He's the best.

- Yeah. - Never seen a player like him in my life. - I don't know if I ever will again either.

Do you ever think in sports how weird it is when you see somebody that's so much better than everyone else, but then you know 20 years later, they'll be somebody better than him. - Yeah. - But maybe not with McDavid. But this might be as good to get to know. - Yeah, because that makes me say, because I love McDavid so much that I don't think that anyone is going to be showing you how always is in every sport. - Well, let me ask you a question that McDavid. - Is there a comp? - No, don't try to do that.

- Because I think I know exactly what you're saying, but there's also guys who, like, you're like, I'm never going to see a guy exactly like this. Like in terms of his skill set and what he does, you know what I mean? - Yeah, I'm more think of a dominant in the game. - I don't know. - I think they'll probably be somebody that's like faster and better there will be. - Yeah. - There has to be. That's the craziest thing. - Like I don't think we'll ever see someone exactly like Steph Curry again. - Really? - Yeah. - Exactly like I just don't.

- Well, that's a product. - I don't know. - Product. So that Lee could be not even exist in 20 years. - The thing with Steph Curry is we've had millions of people over the years just grow up shooting basketballs. - No one's ever been able to see you. - Right, and whoever becomes after him will just be like, oh, he's like Steph Curry.

Steph Curry was the original in that. - But also no one's going to be in the same way as Steph Curry. - Where it's like you'll never see exactly that type of skill set.

- I see what you're saying, but there will still be a player in every league in 20 years that you're just like, he's the best. - I can't believe this guy's this good. - Yeah. - So I don't know. - I'm deep thoughts. - I think we can really do this. - We go Zach, you got us on a deep stack. - Yeah, he's good as it's ever going to get. I think the NHL is in trouble after McDavid retired us.

- McDavid's guy, he's just so special. - He's years and years and cops and he's got another team he's going to go to. - All right, I want some heat for that one. I said, maybe he'd be on Detroit some day and then I'd be going on the witness protection program. - Oh no.

- Yeah. He could have got 22 million. - We'll be the worst teams from McDavid's go to and then win multiple Stanley Cups.

“- The Panthers. - Yeah. - If you joined a super team, oh, the fun team. - That would be a good team. - That would be a good team. - We would never, you would have to quit. - He would never.”

- If he went to a super team and just rattled off some wins, we were just like dude sick league. - I think if he went to a ball of body and if NHL started forming super team, I would no longer be the most appearances on part of my team. - We would be worse. If you went to, if you went to the Panthers, joined a super team or if you went to the Kings and then just did the Gretzki pad.

- He was ever on the Panthers with the guy like their core and they won, but this is just never going to happen.

So we're kind of talking real crazy now. I mean, let's get crazy LA or Dallas or Tampa or something. - Would you want to pitch break? Would that be super team? - No. No, no, no, no, no, no. Crosby's like, Crosby's turning 39, you know, August 7th, you know, 87. That's his birthday. - Do you know that? - Not a hockey birthday. - Eight seven, 87. - Not a hockey. That's probably made him so good though because he had to play against like bigger guys growing up.

“- Uh-huh. - Yeah, he was a prodigy. That's what they call prodigy. I think he was playing like two, three years off. - Does that?”

- So like, hey, you got an 87, the Troy Crosha, yeah, I got an 87, but he's playing with the 84's. - I mean, wait, are you still talking to Sid? - Uh, the last time I talked to Sid Kevin Hayes faced I mean, he was eating pre-game meal with Sid and then Sid's like, "Do you still have restless like syndrome?" I'm like, yeah. He's like, "No shit." - Uh-huh. - That was good. But the city Crosby is like, hey, you were my guy, you were my teammate and all you do is suck off McDavid and say he's better than me.

- I actually have never said he's better than me. So I've said he's the best hockey player ever seen.

- Mm-hmm. - Oh no. But I'm like, Crosby's like the best ever. - Do you guess? - Yeah, no, that's a good, that's how it's so weird. - No, it's a good takemanship. - Where you just don't want to be actual skills of the game. - Yeah, yeah, but like Crosby's like, - No, we go, we go. - That's like a Brady Maho. - Yeah, you can do like best and that's great. - Yeah, yeah, best and greatest is different. - Like where are like people try to, you know, the Aaron Rogers and people say Aaron Rogers is the best football player, like quarterback they've ever seen.

- But he hasn't won the most. - Tom Brady is the greatest. - Yeah. - Aaron Rogers, that's the best. - There you go, right. There you go. But I mean, you know, McDavid needs to get like one to be then to be in the conference. - But then here's Rogers got one. - I just want to just prepare you for some with that. Not that we'd ever do such a thing. But if he's really, really fucking good and he just wins one, then later on we'll be like, he really isn't the best ever. - Oh, he won. - That's interesting coming from an OV guy. - No, I'm saying, well, I'm not here making the claim that he's the best ever.

- You've never said OV's the best ever? - I've said he's the best goal score ever.

- Oh, okay, well, it's only got one cup. - Okay, I didn't say Kai, best goal score ever. - I mean, I don't think, yes, Cross, he's got three, he's got four, Messi has got six. If you get one, you got it. You got it. - You got to have your name on the top. - You got to got the one. You got to get your name on the top. - You got to get your name on the top. - For Joe Thornton and Jerome again, Lungquist, like, there's no way it doesn't eat it in a little bit. - Oh, it's always well. It's like you got to get one and for him, for McDavid. - Yeah.

- If he ever finished without one, I would feel, I'd feel really bad for him. - I really shouldn't have brought up the one cup thing. That was a big missed step. - Yeah, I don't think you would be able to get a bottle of alcohol. - I was talking about it. - I was talking about it. - I was talking about it. - I was talking about it. - You walked right into that one. - All right, wait, you're the best. We'll have you back on closer to a cup final and thank you. - Good luck guys. - Good luck guys. - Anytime, I appreciate it. I can't wait to read the book. Who of these goons had the best chapter?

- Zach, because Zach, I can't stress this enough. Zach has the most misspelled words per word count. - He wrote a paragraph for the end of the book, a paragraph with it. - And I counted like 17 words spelled in a paragraph. - So they should leave a misspelled. - Oh, no, no, no, we told them. - No, no, we told them. - No, no, they were actually not contentious, but we told the people were putting together the book.

“We're like, listen, I know this goes against everything you think a book should be, but you have to tell the copy editor to not touch.”

- Yeah. - Like Hank's chapter, Zach's chapter, like you can't do anything. - So it's getting, you're getting his pure Zach as you want on the book. - On the book. - Hank's. - Hank just makes himself. - Hank had good stuff, yeah. - Yeah. - I think that memes, that's going to read more like a manifesto. - Yeah. - Yeah, they'll pull that up in a court talk show. - So that might be his meme's back there.

- So I texted Dan the other thing, and I was like, man, his memes like a sociopath.

“- Yeah. - He like scares me a little bit. I love him.”

- But he, he's, his sports teams at everything, and just he's just, he's going to kill Hank. - Yeah. - Yeah. - But it's like, not even joking off. - It's good though, we need the edge. He's the edge. - He need the edge. - Yeah, he need the edge. - It's just a grumpy guy. That's a grumpy guy. - Like if you're looking for a grumpy guy, but look at his teams. - I know.

- Right, you can, you can see how he developed that. But there was a moment on Thursday where if the, the jets had moved up and drafted Carson back. - I saw some of those clips where he was like, I'm going to burn this. - He meant it. - He was 100% serious. - No, I've thought, there's been multiple times I thought memes was going to swing on me.

- Really? - Yeah, oh yeah. - Like he'll, he'll ball his face. - I know, yeah. - You just feel like, dude, are you about to punch me?

- He, he's a, he's an amazing follow that guy. He's just,

- What do I, what was I just going to ask you guys, I had one more thing. - Oh, it's funny. When did your book come out? - August. - August. - Oh, and when does Dave's come out? - July. - So more sales, that is going to be, I mean,

if you guys sell more books than he does, that's a nice leg up to have on. - I mean, he's got, he's probably got some more salacious stuff. We do, I will show you some book came together very well. And we also got like, like, you wrote a chapter,

JJ Watt, like Blake Griffin, all these guys who've met a lot.

“- That's what Joe Boc, SVP, like, they all were silo, so it's cool.”

- That's cool to hear. - He did a chapter, yeah. - Of a big SVP fan. - The best. - The best, yeah. - The best, yeah. - You guys, he just seems salt to the earth. - Highest approval rating of anyone in media.

- Yeah. - I know, nobody doesn't like him. - No. - I'd say, if you don't like him, you're just, you're like, brain death. - Him and Barkley. - Yeah. - Probably probably one charnae. - Yeah. - Barkley, by the way, speaking of the NBA argument,

him being on the halftime show and saying, "Thank God for hockey, this game is so bad." - Yeah. - That right there. - It's enough. - Yeah, it's all the best. - All right, thank you. - Anytime.

Okay, good show boys. By the way, I'm talking to icyvert now. I think he's got, I think Pickinsburg's got to go to Philly. I think that's really what it is. He said the icyvert made a good point.

He's like the league scheduling too, you know, back to back room games for him was, you can't have that. Pickinsburg got back to me.

I never got word. It's a planning to come back to pit.

But I'm going for sure the pens need me in the arena. You know what? I'm going to say icyvert might be there.

“So Pickinsburg, you have to look out for him.”

Because he said maybe. So do you want to buy him a ticket? Yeah, it said I'd buy him a ticket. So yeah, he probably would be there. And then what's that word?

Pickinsburg, if you, if I see if it's not there for game five and the penguins win, you have to go to Philly for the second press off. So I, I said my buying, are we sitting Pickinsburg? We'll take that part off line. But he says he's going for sure.

Yeah, so he's already set. Okay, so the pens need him. Yeah, ask him where he's sitting and then we'll just put, we'll put icyvert in the same section if we can't. Sick. Where are you sitting?

Yeah. I mean, you just can't have another man touch your shoulder.

Oh, I got a, I got a Monday reading.

“Do you guys want to do a quick Monday reading?”

Okay, here's the Monday reading. Uh, hold on. Okay, Monday reading. Um, this was at 448 a, today. Memes.

What are you guys thinking for food? I replied this. Something good. Pizza, wings, sushi. And then, uh, if 512 and then Jacob, uh,

replied at 513, there's a good chance I'm a little late tonight. I am in the hospital. I got hit by a car door opening into the bike lane while I was on my scooter. I'm okay. Just don't know when they'll let me out.

And then Hank replied, sushi sounds good. [laughter] All time bar from Hank. I love so hard today. Set that.

Jacob, I'm in the hospital.

Yes, sushi sounds good. [laughter] It was borderline. I was like this. I was typed out sushi sounds. And then, you got Jacob's text came through. I read them. I was like, I kind of started deleted.

And I was like, nah, this is so funny. It was so funny. Yeah. That, that one needs to be so funny. The chat's actually moving really funny right now.

[laughter] I laughed felt bad. Sorry deleted. I was like, fuck it. No, it was good. It played. No hard feelings. It was funny.

“Jacob, can we find this woman who hit you with a car door?”

Uh, it would be great. Um, if there's any good Scooterverse car lawyers in the Chicago area. Morgan Morgan. Morgan Morgan. Morgan. I would be contacting them tomorrow. Um, so what, what happened? You just got smoked.

Yeah, smoked. I had no reaction time whatsoever. I was going about 15, 18 miles an hour. Don't Chicago Avenue in Chicago. And then, surprise surprise.

And then someone, uh, Uber passenger opened her back rear door into the, like, the rightest, most lane. The only area where I could ride a bike or scooter. Um, I hit the edge of the door full speed. Um, into my hip, I have the biggest bruise I've ever had.

And then that threw me into the car. Parked car on the right. And then I went on to the ground. So really hurt. Um, and then the lady got out of the car. As far as okay, but kind of more into, like, a lawyer manner.

Like, are you okay? Oh, I was like, yeah. Well, I was riding a pain. And then she was like, okay, you're okay. And then she started arguing with the Uber driver.

“As the wife, she didn't need to give her information.”

Because the driver already had her information in the app. And then she walked away. Sounds like she pressed you. Yeah. She pressed you.

You never let a car door touch you.

No. But you're okay. So you went to hospital. I went to the hospital. And then I went to the hospital and then I went to the hospital. And then I went to the hospital.
